Daily Ooo's: Friday, June 1

[faerywings]

Please forgive me if my posts are all wacky again. I see that my replies got double posted yesterday. I do not get it. I think I should simply I've up trying to make sense of anything in life. Computer/tech related. No clue. Where and what I am supposed to be doing. No clue. The world/news. Really no clue. heh!!!


I cannot wait until Sunday when I can collapse. My day was a bit crazy again yesterday. Gary had to get blood drawn at the place in town that we go to. When he got back, he told me that they are switching to a new computer system on Monday and that they are going back to charging the $15 fee for blood draws. I was planning on going Monday since that is when I am due for my monthly bloodwork but I ended up going a couple of days early to save me time and money. While I was gone, Gary vacuumed everything so I could steam clean as soon as I got back. that was a huge help. I did that, cleaned both bathrooms, boiled the eggs for the deviled eggs for the party, and made dog cookies for J. The batch that I made last week got moldy and they help her stomach when she eats a bunch before bedtime. She threw up again yesterday so I knew that I had to make them even though I really only wanted to sit down.


I never made it to the vet to pick up Floyd's meds so I need to do that this morning. He isn't eating much of his wet food at all, so I am going to ask about getting a refill on the appetite stimulant. But I wonder how much more we can put him through. It really never ends.


So... yup. Today is going to be another non-stop day. Cooking and cleaning. I have to get a lot done today b/c I need to go to the FP tomorrow before the party. That will take up an hour of my day but it has to be done.
Gary will help me with the LR/DR while I am in the kitchen today. He doesn't know this yet but I know he won't mind. 48 hours. I just need to get through the next 48 hours. :madgrin:
I got this!!!!


Love to all!!!

Ok, so far so good- my initial post only showed up once.


Felis- oh no, that is crazy that you are still having issues with internet/phone/ There are some days that I think I would be very happy to be disconnected, but then I end up in a panic when I actually am.

It makes me happy to see you so excited about Riverdale. Will you be meeting up with your friend today? Have a great time if you do.
The spot on her cheek is still bleeding and I am trying really hard not to worry. So much to worry about that I am overwhelmed. ugh!
Thanks, for the puppy/Floyd hugs!


Trudy- How bittersweet your trip will be. I am thinking of you and sending you so many hugs! The hike sounds wonderful, even if it was cold. Seriously strange weather. It was chilly yesterday and it is going to be 80* today. I cannot keep up. Please tell all of your fellow countrymen that I apologize for the &^$@% in charge of the US right now. Trudeau was way too polite during his speech about the tariffs. Are you sure that you cannot adopt me and my family? I would love to be Canadian. hahaha!!!
That is fantastic to hear that Heather is still improving- that is great news for Rae as well.


Rae- I like your Inspirations challenge- I want to scrap something for that soon. I am proud of you that you are really working on keeping some things "normal." Like felis said- it is so important. One thing that I let slide over the years of being sick and caring for an ill family was my contact with the outside world. I lost so many friendships. You seem to be staying on track, just be sure to pace yourself and rest when you can.
I *hate* that the insurance company denied the request for the better IV meds. BTDT. It isn't right. Is there any sort of appeal process? I have never had much luck with that but it can't hurt to try.



Jean- I am constantly amazed about the ways that technology screws more thing up. Gary's computer keeps losing the video card and he loses sound. He will do a system restore and that works and then it goes out again. He can't find a reason why it is happening. Cait couldn't print anything the other day - same thing- one second it was working, then next second it stopped. Then it started working again. Enough to make me batty!
I also lost one of my custom workspaces in PS and my brushes got uninstalled. But the Styles didn't change a bit. See, no rhyme or reason!

I am asking for help today!! I swear!!


and I am off-- have a fab day!!!

good morning - well yesterday was a gone day but I did my good deed. My DIL was having wisdom teeth pulled, some baby teeth pulled and it was taking two hours. Well I went to pick her up and she was in pretty bad shape. I think she was so nervous that she made herself sick and she could not eat anything so that did not help. Felt so bad for her because dentists are not my favorite. So turns out I had to wait in the office the whole time. But I had my phone so I did fine. When they came to get me she was too sick to leave. But turns out there was a diner next door so I picked her up some food on the way home. And I left at 8:30am from my house and got home around 2pm. But I am glad I could help. My DH is staying home and he is steam cleaning our carpets. I am proud of him. It looks nice and this carpet cleaner works so well and it does not leave the carpets soaked and they dry very fast even in the humid cloudy dreary weather we are having. Poor Luther was not happy though but today he is at doggie daycare so he is having fun. I have errands to run and bills to pay. And I cannot believe it is the first day of June!

Chris I know it will all work out and you will be happy but tired on Sunday. What a nice brother and hubby. Men sometimes get a bad rap but when asked to help they really do do their part and more. Sorry about Cait and the appt. I am sure she is bummed. That is terrible that a new computer system causes the blood draws to now costs money.

Trudy I would love that estuary hike. All those birds and the babies OMgosh how fun. I know when I when to birding the bugs were just starting. How are the bugs are you hike? Have a great time with the grands even with all the driving. I am sure it will be hard but soak it all in.

Felis I am so glad you are liking Riverdale - a jughead is a slang word that means kinda goofy and stupid but that is why it is a joke nickname as Jughead is loyal and smart! I have started a new Netflix series 13 reasons why. It is a sad premiss as it is 13 reasons why a young high school girl commits suicide. And she leaves 13 tapes that the people who hurt her listen to and you see the interactions before and after her death. I know it sounds depressing but it is really good. My son said I was crazy for starting it but he found it really good too. It had warnings about the show's story line and how parents should sit with their kids and perhaps start a dialog. According to the PR a lot of people have gone for help after watching the show. I watched 4 episodes and I could have watched all it got too late. Hope weather is better and that the internet and phone problems are solved! Also saw that Dimtriov lost this am. It was a good match but I don't watch the whole four hours I just come and go.

Rae that is terrible that the insurance denied the best drug due to cost. Why do we pay taxes and insurance payments if they refuse to use our money to help us when needed? Always annoys me that they do not see that we pay them our money and we are asking for it back. Glad to hear that Bailey is improving and making her own tea! You are doing amazing in helping your family!

Jean I am assuming you are watch the Cavs. All I heard this am on the radio was what a knuckle head move the Cavs' player made in not knowing the score. After all that Lebron did to have his team mate not know the score. Not good. Hope they do better. The hockey is now tied with Caps and Knights each having won one game. Still cheering for the Knights.

Have a great day all!

Hello girls,
I'm so excited today! At first here we celebrate the day of the child! So greetings to all of us who are keeps the child in them alive! I celebrate it by wearing top with Minnie Mouse ! It's so awful hot, but wouldn't complain, because I know most of you want to be this way, so just will try to use the power of my minds to push it into your direction.
Second the finale of Riverdale season 2 is spectacular! Many thanks again Nancy! Yes,Chris, I was with my friend this morning and I believe I played good enough so she decided that excited for tomorrow, without to realize that I learned what book she want. So I believe I'll surprise her.
And third we decided to take free day and make something like home spa day with my sister. And Tiny whole day go on short walks with some of us, which make her so happy and exhausted at the same time. It's kind of strange but we are in so festive mood, even we are too old for the day of the child, it's sunny and careless day so why not. But mostly because tomorrow is the big book sale! So tomorrow we will be at the capitol, and maybe I wouldn't post here, if we come back too tired. This year they are decided the whole event to be outside, and we will be there before lunch so I hope it's not too hot! Keeps your fingers crossed to be a nice day, please!

Chris, oh no, I'm a kind of person who always worried for the worst and I'm so much worried about Cait's face. Are you sure this couldn't count as emergency and to receive early appt?!

Nancy, I'm read the book on which 13 reasons why is based and it was nice, but not what I expected. I have to see do the show is come here. I think Selena Gomes is the producer.

Ouch girls, sorry I'll come back with more personal notes later, right now something other needs my immediate attention, excuse me!

Good morning, ladies. I will keep this brief. I am struggling today, my mood is so sad and I feel worn out. Even though B could make a tea this week, she was having other neurological problems this week (incontinence has started again). Yesterday she was regressing quite a bit and her speech and mood aggression got worse. She swore at me and kicked me out yesterday. She was having irrational thoughts and reactions. I was so sad that we didn't get to hang out and watch a movie together. She sat in the corner and turned her head away from me, telling me to get out.

Today I will stay home. Jen is going to see if they can schedule another MRI to see what is going on with the brain swelling. It's scary b/c it looks like this second line of treatment isn't working and there isn't anything else to give her. I will try to work and take Taz out later. Maybe I'll try to scrap later too. I need to get outside of my head and keep distracted today. I'm feeling very discouraged about things today.

Chris - glad to hear you have help getting reading for the wkend. It will all work out. You'll see.

Nancy - how wonderful you are to have helped out your DIL like that.

Felis - thinking of you with your Minnie Mouse top made me smile Enjoy the day of the child, having your home spa day!

I'm getting to work now. I hope my mood improves throughout the day. I hate feeling so negative and down but will push thru it, I know.

Nancy, I'm read the book on which 13 reasons why is based and it was nice, but not what I expected. I have to see do the show is come here. I think Selena Gomes is the producer. I don't wanna give you spoilers, but if the script follow the book strict, when you see the scene at the pool will understand why I'm so disappointed from Hannah. Good that you're support your DIL on the dentists, especially when she's been so nervous. You are so nice!
With me too, thank you for the explanation about 'Jughead', I was sure I miss something at the meaning!

Rae, oh, dear, this is so sad! I can imagine how bad is hurt you this episode of aggression! So sorry that you have to go through this! Poor B, our primary instincts are strong and without her ability to control them it's not surprising that she skip from the reality to this condition of anger and fight mode. And of course the next is impulse to flight. Back to the basics reflex. I hope you'll can to 'get outside of your head' and found some kind of distraction as you hoped! But don't push yourself too hard, maybe you need from one blue day of cry and self-pity! Allow yourself one day of helpless :hug: ! But just one!

Jean, your owl page looks gorgeous! I have finally to make my weekly pages. This morning on a rush I posted my pages for the other challenges. Thanks for the link about Riverdale, yes they said at the end of the show that the characters are based on comics, but as much as I understand the story don't follow them.

Trudy, your hike at Cowichan Estuary looks lovely! Have fun with the kids! I guess you wouldn't have much time to comes here .


Have a lovely weekend you all! :cof3::whoo:
