Day got a lot better toward the end

Posted By: leeduigon(patty)Posted On:

It wasn’t such a good day today, but as the day wore on it got better and I felt completely normal by about 3 o’clock.  I pray that’s the end of it.

I truly want to avoid going to the doctor if I can.  That would be an epic hassle.

Bad enough that with this Nor’easter we’re in for 3 days of rain.

We’ve got the good old gray, cold, rainy weather.  Yuck.

Of course, I’ve accomplished zip these last few days while I was feeling so bad.

Let’s see what tomorrow brings.

Have a good night, all.

See you tomorrow,

God bless everybody.

PS  I loved that the little dog who got bitten by the snake looked so much like my little Dobie.  I miss him.

This young woman is an absolute gem.  Talk about going above and beyond.

Parent poops in Grosse Pointe high school hallway (not a joke)

Posted By: leeduigon(patty)Posted On:

OK, I understand times are hard, people are stressed, and maybe your kid’s team did not win the game.  But, really, pooping in the hallway?  Talk about putting the “gross” in Grosse Pointe.

Sometimes, the news is really unbelievable.

That’s some great parental behavior.

This joker left his calling card for all to see.

Unbelievable.

Today’s update on Nonna

Just to see that this poor old girl is getting some comfort and care makes me feel a lot  better for her.  I think she is moving much better, despite her age and infirmity.  As Takis says, she will be moved to another place at the shelter where the flooring is not so slippery.  She is definitely moving better that she had been.

The story behind Flatbush Cats

This organization is a true grassroots movement story.  They do marvelous work and have grown over the past few years.  The problem is a big one, but they are working on it.

Not a good day

Posted By: leeduigon(patty)Posted On:

Today started out just fine.

About a half hour after lunch, things started to go south.  That gastric issue came back yet again.  Now I am developing a fear of eating. (I told you before what a fretter and worrier I am).  It is so very distressing.  I will keep eating, of course, but  think I may take Gas-X  right after eating (not wait until I feel like I’m dying).  The very last thing I need right now is doctor visits.  I’ve always been an air-swallower and with the generalized anxiety that I’ve been telling you about I’m sure to be swallowing air.  The air warms in the stomach and expands and you just feel awful.  There is only so much room in there.  I mean the stomach, not the abdomen.

Prayers would be welcome.  It’s a very scary thing.  You do feel short of breath as well, but when I check my oxygen level it is just fine.  Needless to say, this discomfort produces more anxiety, etc.  A vicious circle.

Your prayers would be most welcome.

Then, the blog today…I kept running into stories that would not let me post them.

That’s incredibly frustrating.

On that joyful note I’ll close.

Have a good night, all.

See you tomorrow.

God bless everybody.

You couldn’t pay me enough to do this job. Cat bathing & grooming

Never could I do this job.  I never had to have a cat of mine groomed.

Let’s remember all our vets

When I was a little kid, this was called Armistice Day, as WWII was ongoing at the time.  For a long time on this day you could buy poppies from veterans groups.  You wore it with pride and thanks to all the vets.  They still do that in the UK.

Thank you, vets for your service.  We would not be here without you.
