Hi Paulie

Pearl Harbor Firsthand Accounts: Video
On December 7, 1941, a surprise Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor shocked America. These are the stories of veterans who were at the naval base that morning.

Hi, I had a morning dental appt then lots of errands.

LB, Awwwww Oliver!! I remember sweet Oliver. He was the best excellent loving dog to you ever! I remember how devastated you were when he had to cross the rainbow bridge. Hugs to you about his anniversary yesterday. I love his collage. You did good with that!!

Very good the wound from the compression sock has healed. Very good also the Amoxicillin is helping your sty.
Oh my to your PT sessions!! Sounds very painful but like you said necessary. Still though .... ouch!
You be careful vacuuming and mopping floors today .. especially if Copper is nearby.
It snowed here this morning too and its melting already. Yay!

Phyl, Very good you had a very good visit with NP. She sounds very thorough and efficient. Good that she was gentle with your exam.
Excellent to your referral.
Oh my try not to sneeze. Yep do that finger trick. Very good the Tylenol is helping you.
Thanks for explaining the carpet. I'm sure you'll remember every time you enter that room.
Of course you're exhausted!! Physically, mentally and emotionally. You've been through an ordeal for sure.
You please take it easy!! And be careful with you still being wobbly. While Jim's at work I hope you can lay down to rest .. even nap. Snuggle with Maggie too. Hugs to you.

Good morning, I vaccuumed the living room thats about it. I need to mop and do bedroom as well.  I did do laundry LOL  I mostly watch tv. I cant count how many shows/movies I have watched. LOL   

[Phyl]

Good Morning...And...'Happy Friday!

Currently 47F   high  58F  and  Low 41 F

Hi LB all good ones today, tks.  Movies are fun.  You got some 'chores' accomplished 

Hi Paulie hope dentist appt went well. Always nice to get errand finished

Been almost a week and I never go that long with a dirty 'mop'. LOL   It's going to be real task ---  I'll have to stand with my head tilted a back to the shower head and pray the BPPV doesn't make me fall on my head. LOL       If I bend forward then the dirty water will run down my nose.  Won't be good for an infection.  Speaking of---having adverse reaction to the Augmenten...not surprizing at-all. But somtimes a person's 'system' changes. However, not this time.   My nose is 'itchy' today and the Derma bond is peeling off. That sounds about right though on the Dermabond.    Maybe  a 'paint job' on the face too. 

[paulie]

Good Morning,
Yep it's Friday. I woke up thinking it was Saturday. Heck sometimes days run together to the point when Charlie and I will ask the other "What day is today?" or "What's today's date?"

LB, Good to getting the vacuuming done. The mopping and bedroom get done when you do it. Don't over do and wear yourself out. I imagine your daily stretching/bending exercises can tire you out. And taking Copper for walks too.

When do you resume working from home? You've got some weeks to go for that I think.

Phyl, Dental appt was good and true to getting errands done. I went back out yesterday afternoon for final errand. Last night I was tired!

Oh my gosh to your description washing your "mop"! Don't do that. So you got me thinking. Do you have a waterproof chair you use outside that Jim could put into the shower for you to sit? Not knowing what type shower head you have but if one that lifts off you could do it that way. If not, don't fret about your hair right now.

Oh geez to your adverse Augmentin reaction. Augmentin is a strong antibiotic. You are correct about sometimes a persons 'system' changes. It happens. I used to take it with no issues. Then a few years ago did for sinus infection. Nasty reaction. Threw up and dry heaved for the duration till all were taken. Then was prescribed it again thinking maybe would be okay this time. Nope. 'System' had adverse reaction. I have refused it going forward. My medical chart now has noted I'm allergic to it.

Are you to take Augmentin for 10 days?

A good sign I think to your nose feeling itchy now. When any wound is healing I've taken the itching as a good sign to the healing process.

What do you mean about a paint job on the face too?

You continue to rest today I hope and heal.

[LBLNJ0668]

I feel your pain, Phyl!!! I iddnt wash my hair for a week when I first had my surgery. Then it was another week. I waited until I was able to take shower.  Sorry about the issue with the antibiotic.   I have one more blood thinner pill to take   I didint do anything today. well I walked copper. I  take copper for his normals walks now  with cane.  I went to PT,  MY 5 minute of torture!!!! It wasnt so bad.    I then went to my father  to visit him.

I  go back to worj on the 18th. 1 more week but remotely   I think I can go back to office but i'll wait. It will be sometime in January though  I am getting restless home.   I am starting to get anxiety.  worrying about everything. It's that time of year .I just wanted to check in here  tonight. I'll cln sunday during our rain storm   

[Phyl]

I know you do LB you been thru so much lately. Goes for you---taking it easy.

Hey you two (Paulie) Tsk in Beakrrom offered  up an excellent idea for me. Using a KN95 mask over my nose/mouth while I shower. It works
wonderfuly well.  I'm all shiney clean from head to toe!

Paint job on face= makeup

Sending SEDs Everyone!

[paulie]

LB, Okay to you beginning to work remotely on the 18th. It's great you walk Copper on his normal walks with a cane. Glad to hear your 5 minutes of PT pain wasn't that bad. Progress!! Very nice you can now drive yourself to visit your father.
Good thinking that you'll clean Sunday during the rain. Relax tomorrow.

Same here Sunday. Heavy rain up to 2 inches and high winds. Yuck. I'm hoping to stay inside.

Phyl, That was an excellent idea of tsk's to use mask. Good that you're all shiny and clean. I know that makes you feel better.

Okay to paint job = makeup. Lol


Another busy day here around the house and sorting/separating three granddaughter's Christmas presents to see what's arrived and what needs delivered yet. They texted or emailed me links to things and sizes/colors etc. It's nice my youngest 8 yr old still likes board games and different toys and art books and supplies. The 16 and 14 teenagers are into clothing, shoes and makeup. Oh different perfumes and lotions too. Oh and some jewelry. Geesh things aren't cheap. Hoping to wrap tomorrow and/or Sunday.

Well I'm heading out. Take care. SED

[LBLNJ0668]

Good morning I finally ot to sleep in today. Copper let me sleep to 800!!!  Finally out of the 6 weeks off I get to sleep past 630.   I went up and  down 2 steps to get to my dads house without rails  !!!  I am actually nervous to go back to work  not sure why 

Glad you got your shower Phyl

[paulie]

Good morning,

LB, Yay you slept till 8am!! That felt good. Congrats doing the steps at your dad's house. Good for you!

You're probably nervous about work because of being away for so many weeks and wondering if maybe there's been changes to process etc. I think you are hard on yourself too because you've always excelled at what you do at work. I bet once you've resumed working your routine will fall into place nicely for you.

All quotes are good today.

Hi Phyl, Hoping you had a restful evening and got a good night's sleep.


Well another very gray, chilly blah weather here today. A full week plus of these gray chilly days. Need sunshine!!
Tomorrow 2 inches rain maybe more predicted with gusting winds. Yuck.

[LBLNJ0668]

I think its also because the last time I was out for my achilles surgery (at another job) when I returned to work I got laid off.   I know different company but I keep thinking of that.  I know there has been some changes when I logged n I read emails nothing affects me so far expect a procedure. my boss has a habit of thinking he tells everyone but doesnt.  LOl  espeically since I have been out 6 weeks he has no idea hat I know or dont know.   I can actually probably return to ffice but I'll ease myself into it.   LOL  I think I  am going to log on next weekend and look at one of my responsibilities that someone took over.  The last time I was out for a few days b4 my surgey she changed ev erything around.  I am going to look and fix it to the way I do it if she made changes  LOL

[Phyl]

 SEDs Everyone...       
                           
 


LB thanks. The big deal was washing my hair. But as i mentioned Tsk had a great suggesiton for me. It worked perfectly. Wishing you all the best with the hassels of reinserting yourself at the work enviorment.

I slept very well. Thanks Paulie

Been trying to find a more elevated  food/water bowls holder for Maggie. Not easy---may have to go to ones for small dogs. 
I thought it'd make a nice gift for her.

None of our Christmas presents are arriving. Maybe it's just me. 

[paulie]

Good Morning,

LB, Good idea to ease yourself returning to work in-office. Once you do return working from home you have every right to change procedure of one of your responsibilities back to the way you do it. The co-worker probably made changes to the way she found was better for her. Bottom line .. it's your responsibility so make changes that work best for you. Relax now and don't fret about it until you've returned to work. Not worth it. 

Your area has the same heavy rain and winds as mine. Your area has flood warning though along eastern coast. You stay inside cozy I hope.

Phyl, How are you weather wise? I saw on morning national news Tennessee had nasty weather move through. I hope not in your vicinity.

Finding an elevated food/water stand  for Maggie from small dog selection should work. Hopefully you find a good selection to choose from.
I've used one in the past for my St. Bernard, Zeus. The elevation definitely helped with neck/head height.

Uh-Oh to your Christmas presents being delivered. No it's not you. This holiday season's shipping/delivery is a mess and worrisome for lots of people.

I've had issues too being notified of delayed delivery .. then item might be lost then still no delivery. I went onto website and cancelled order then re-ordered it. The new second item was delivered promptly and I received a refund for the first order not delivered.
Sounds like a hassle to do but it worked. I did it for two orders.

I've currently waiting for a delivery that was to be delivered last Friday. I keep checking tracking. The darned package keeps going back n forth to a FedEx terminal. I got an email this morning it's now out for delivery today. We shall see! Ugh.
So no it's not you.

How are you feeling health wise/nose today?

[LBLNJ0668]

Good afternoon

I slept in again today well to 8:15 that is late for me.   I actually cleaned the bathroom yesterday. I just need to mop floors along with rest of house .  maybe  later. LOL. I am in the middle of watching Away. It's bout the astraunuts going to Mars. Not a new moview came out a few years ago  Its good.    I am on episode 8 of 10.  its a rainy day the hard ran hasnt started yet like they should be   

[paulie]

Hi LB, Nice! You got to sleep in again today. Good because you've had a lot of rough past weeks. Your progress is a plus for sure. You've worked hard for this. The show you're watching sounds interesting. You're almost done with it!
Same here about the rain. Good.
You sleep in again tomorrow I hope. 
Take care.
