This has been a whirl wind week. From Jackie’s mom in the hospital to being busy at work. I only had one day off after a 9 day stretch and I am so ready to have 3 days off this next week.

Jackie’s mom is doing good.  She was a little week after dialysis yesterday.  But she has been fighting with Jackie about not wanting to be in the hospital any more. I can’t says I blame her, but it will help her feel better.  Jackie tells me her roll as daughter is reversed now, she is the parent.

I am more mentally exhausted then anything else.  I really wish I could just shut my brain down.  I think when I get home at 2pm today, it is a nap and then dinner with my lovely lady.  We need some time together.

Laddie is adapting perfectly to the family.  I was worried about him last week, but he is doing wonderfully.  I am going to work with him on some basic stuff. but it will be a challenge with three dogs all together.

So that is an update.  Chat more later.

So today has been a hard day.  With Jackie’s mom in the hospital; we have her dog laddy here with us.  It is interesting so far having three dogs in our house.  Carson and Laddy are just hanging together right now.  Jasper is sleeping or trying to sleep.  I need to sleep too, I am running on about hour and half of sleep.  I can imagine what Jackie is running on.

Well, this morning is the first morning for my meds.  I can’t wait to see how and when they kick in.  I really want to start feeling better mentally.  I slept in until 2am this morning.  I feel a little more awake then normal.

The Song of the Day

So lately I have fallen more and more in love with Tumblr for easy adding content to a simple blog.  It also makes me easier reading other Tumblr blogs that I like.

Right now I am so mentally exhausted I can’t see straight.  I am going to try and get everything done as soon as I can this morning if counts are about the same as yesterday and get out of here again.  Even if I can do that before like 7:30 I am just going to go ahead and tell the housekeeping supervisor that I am leaving and I will take a vacation day for the rest of the day.  I am sure if things are caught up the boss won’t mind.  It just is that my meds are screwed up between the clinic, insurance and the pharmacy.  So I am not able to take my meds.  This totally sucks.

I had a rough time getting to sleep again last night.  I need to take a nap today when I get home.  I have the dogs, but I think I can convince them to sleeping with me.

my sinuses are killing me and making my teeth very sensitive.   God I hate this.

Just got back from my follow up appointment from my surgery.  The good news is that my leg is working the way it should.  The bad news is I got weighed at the appointment and I am at 222 pounds.  I’ve gained weight.  So the doctor told me that I need to start exercising seriously; so that means 10 minutes a day on the tread mill for first two weeks 5 times a week then increasing it 5 minutes the next week.  He said that will help with leg circulation and also with weight.

So now it is back to normal stuff and including exercising in that project as well.  He says that my goal time on the tread mill or regular walking should be 30 minutes.  I am game for that as long as I get to my 185 pound weight.  So I have 37 pounds to loose.  Watch me go.
