Today’s Stuff

Today was a high stress day. Mostly I think I’ll mention I had my stress test and on the good side, I made it the whole ten minutes. On the bad side, the irregular heartbeat definitely showed. They sent me on my way since they couldn’t get my doctor on the phone (too early). Had […]

Just a Quick update.

First, Suzie-Q had a great review of the Kindle on her blog. I may consider getting one around the holidays if it’s in the cards at that time. Second, I haven’t had any odd reactions to the unnamed pharmaceutical I started taking last night (with much trepidation, I assure you.) I am opposed to most […]

Another Day….

Today I had my first full physical therapy session for my neck. They damn near killed me, but I think that’s good. Next session I have to talk to them because they didn’t do a number of things on the doctor’s prescription. But they did do a lot of exercises for me, though there was […]

Brief Medical Update + Other Stuff

First, I am having a stress test on Monday. That alone is stressing me out. The doctor also sent a prescription in to Walgreens (I watched it transmit) only they don’t have it. So now, I have to wait a day to start. My doctor’s office is closed Thursday so I am concerned that I […]

Brief Update on Health and Work

So, let’s see about today’s update. I feel I owe you one. First, I am scheduled to see the doctor again tomorrow about this heart thing. I am pretty sure I have an idea about it, and I have printed out a page from the web about it. My doctor will laugh because it came […]

Good News and Bad News

I came home to a broken AC and my house is damned near 80 degrees and it’s been raining for hours. I hate to think how hot it was before that. While I have a service contract, I’m paying another company to come fix it since the company that has my contract is closed. I […]

Just when you thought it couldn’t get any worse….

…. It does. Just remember, you can be happy you don’t have my life :/ So today I went for my annual physical (for which I am two years behind schedule) during which they drew tons of blood, did an EKG, examined my prostate (my least favourite part), checked my weight, blood pressure, listened to […]

Fun on an Ugly Day

Woke up and went to breakfast (brunch) at Cheesecake Factory. It ended up being just me and Liz, but I had a most enjoyable time and that’s everyone else’s loss. I had French toast (okay) and bacon (yummy) and a glass of water — still no hot beverages for me 🙁 After which, we went […]

Weirdness of Today

Today was take your kids to work day or some variant of that depending on what part of the country you live in. We’ve allowed this for quite a few years now though it does cause some slowdown at work. Maybe it’s the economy but we only had two kids this year: the regulars. Anyway, […]

Just More Stuff

A few people have asked about my jokes list. If you’re not on it, it’s here. I will warn you that at some point you will be offended and your complaint about it will fall on deaf ears. My elliptical exercise machine arrived today. My exercise bike is now redundant. I will begin using it […]
