Weird Weather


At Noon today it was 66 degrees and breezy enough to be wonderfully chilly!  It isn't supposed to get over 82  which will be comfortable, but look out for the next few days as the thermometer makes a steady climb!

My new bathroom scale arrived and was easy to set up.  I just want it to tell me what I weigh and that's it.  No recording on my iOS device (if I even have one - don't know what the hell that is!).  No "tracking, organizing and using simple graph tools".  No sharing with healthcare providers and fitness buddies.  Just tell me how much I weigh.

The hummingbirds are coming around again.    I guess the word finally got out that "she's baaack!"  I love watching them.  (Now I'd like to get a birdbath set up i my front yard.)  There are two hummers who don't seem to want to share - probably males - but I didn't expect that type of behavior this time of year.

I have mentioned on my blog the difficulty I've had getting decent sleep for at least the past year.  I sleep on my side but wake up with my shoulder in raging pain, and have to prop myself with pillows under the pain spots.  Then when I turn to the other side I have to start all over again.  The pain and discomfort is now gone!  I just love this and can't wait to see what pain and discomfort goes next!  The Dr. gave me a page of exercises to do 5 days a week, taking only about 15 minutes a day at most.  He will be adding to those in coming weeks, as well as discussing posture, nutrition, etc.  I'm open to everything.

It feels like nap time again, but I hate to do it as it will mess up my sleep patterns.  Maybe I could just close my eyes for a bit.





- Great Day, So Far!
I drove to Sears this morning to find they didn't have a watch repair dept.  A friendly clerk told me about a kiosk on the lower level, and I had a new battery in about one minute!  It cost about double what I might have paid for the battery...

- Woke Up With The Sun!
This morning I woke up with the sunlight streaking into my room.  What a beautiful sight!  Yesterday evening the wind and rain were fierce, and at one point it actually pulled my side door open, and the crash of the door against the railing...

- Nurse Gypsy Reporting
I stayed at Jeannie's house last night so I could be up early and have her to the dentist office at 7:10.  We were there for about two hours, then went to Kaiser Permanente to get her pain med Rx filled.  For certain drugs they now require...

- Post Op
Jeannie took me to my post op this morning, and my mood has been swinging wildly for the last few days anyway, nearly driving me crazy today.  I've gone through periods of wanting to just sit and cry, as well as those of just plain depression. ...

- Hanging In There
Of course I have nothing to write about, so I'll just tell you things are about the same as the last time I posted.  I hurt like hell!  Tuesday will only be one week and I wish I had a little more patience. I woke up at 5:30 this morning...
