Cancer Posted November 4, 2022 Report Share Posted November 4, 2022 Back when I was younger, my expression for this was "Badness comes in waves." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Logan D. Hurricanes Posted November 4, 2022 Report Share Posted November 4, 2022 When I was younger, I used to hang out at the mall a bit. The crowds were part of the attraction, I think, if they weren't too large. Nowadays, I can't even take the crowd at Trader Joe's, and that's pretty minimal.

Pariah Posted November 4, 2022 Report Share Posted November 4, 2022 Lady P is at the Emergency Room right now. Lady problems, but they've been persistent for several weeks. She's been trying to get in to see her OBGYN, but they haven't had any openings until next Thursday. She finally got in to see one of the PA's at our doctor's office, and she referred her directly to the ER. Lady P is checked in and is currently awaiting an ultrasound. All three of her older sisters had to have hysterectomies. There's a part of me that's afraid that's where this is going. But all I can do right now is hang out at home and make sure the kids are okay. Any prayers, positive energy, and/or good vibes any of you can send this direction would be welcomed.

Logan D. Hurricanes Posted November 9, 2022 Report Share Posted November 9, 2022 I only got three hours sleep last night. Why? My insane cat woke me up with an obnoxious mewing streak. I got up to see what he wanted, and he wanted me to let him out the front door. The back door is always open for him. Such a brat. I did not open the front door. Tried to go back to sleep mostly in vain. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

death tribble Posted November 18, 2022 Report Share Posted November 18, 2022 Should have mentioned this a couple of days ago but never mind. Tuesday, it took two hours to get home. Granted it was raining but. First problem we are heading one way home and they put up a road ahead closed sign. So turn off and try another route where we really get bogged down. Reach the top of a hill and Road closed again. So we have to turn back on ourselves and end up back where we started at the first road closed sign. Turn off and do a bit of a loop then get to Mutley Plain only road closed again. Back again and then turn and go a different way avoiding Mutley Plain. And that's how we got home. We had taken in a food delivery for neighbours and had packed their stuff in our fridge and freezer so we had to get that out and to them before we could relax. Well almost water getting in next door so Mum has to deal with that as landlady. Mutley Plain was closed not due to flooding as we thought but due to a traffic accident where someone with multiple driving offences had hit a pedestrian. Driver taken by the police, pedestrian to hospital. Mutley Plain open to traffic 7 am next day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pariah Posted November 18, 2022 Report Share Posted November 18, 2022 LBP and LGP have both tested positive for COVID in the past week. Lady P is still struggling with her difficulties. More OBGYN visits are in the near future, as well as some kind of procedure in all likelihood. And my back is killing me, and has been for the past two days. I have cyclobenzaprine, but I can't take it on school nights. Other than that, we're fine. Logan D. Hurricanes 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Logan D. Hurricanes Posted November 22, 2022 Report Share Posted November 22, 2022 My car got rear ended today. I was stopped at a stoplight; I drive a Cube which is hard to miss from the rear. Every time I get rearended I'm at a stoplight. Obviously, I need to quit stopping at stoplights. I'm fine, it seems to be mostly cosmetic damage to the car. Happy Holidays to me.

Cancer Posted November 29, 2022 Report Share Posted November 29, 2022 Snowing here in Seattle this morning. Doesn't seem to be heavy, and it's not sticking yet. I didn't see any accidents on my way to work this morning, but with Seattle drivers one can wonder about that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Logan D. Hurricanes Posted November 29, 2022 Report Share Posted November 29, 2022 Follow-up: The woman that hit me has been very responsible and is paying for repairs. She has a friend with an auto body shop. I take my car in Monday. Cancer, Old Man, rravenwood and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pariah Posted November 29, 2022 Report Share Posted November 29, 2022 It snowed fairly steadily last night through this morning. Skies are mostly clear and blue now, and the roads are mainly clean. Last night was a different story, though. I'd forgotten what it was like to drive a rear-wheel drive vehicle in the snow. Not my favorite.

Cancer Posted November 29, 2022 Report Share Posted November 29, 2022 Hmm, yeah, I haven't done that since my old Ranger died a decade ago or so. Since then it's been AWD vehicles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cancer Posted December 1, 2022 Report Share Posted December 1, 2022 After being out for about 30 hours, we have electric power at home again, as of 0530 our time. Lawnmower Boy, Ternaugh, Hermit and 4 others 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tkdguy Posted December 2, 2022 Report Share Posted December 2, 2022 One of my cats has been sick. She's not eating and hardly drinking water. The blood test showed she has an infection, but the vet couldn't determine where. Now she's skin and bones, and we have to force feed her nutrients to keep her from deteriorating even further.

death tribble Posted December 5, 2022 Report Share Posted December 5, 2022 Had dinner and was sick. Then had to unblock the sink. Was feeling a little bit unsteady before the meal. Had Lovage to calm the stomach. Two more bouts of vomiting. Off to bed and 10 hours sleep without having to get up once. No food or drink for twelve hours. Let's see how this goes. Dire rear. Two blasts of hot water in two separate sit downs but not classic diarrhea. Not been sick again but obviously I am still not well. Make that three. Oh dear.

death tribble Posted December 8, 2022 Report Share Posted December 8, 2022 Other than simple stuff, I'm not eating as I do not feel hungry. Toast, soup and scrambled egg have all been ok. However I could do without the persistent belching to keep the stomach clear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
