Sorry I forgot to check in today. Still breathing, comparatively speaking. Less coughing today.

Tomorrow is the barium swallow test. It's supposed to snow and sleet. If those two things are falling from the sky, I ain't going.

@Roberta,
Nor rain nor sleet nor darkness at noon nor blistering heat....or something like that?


Sensible woman...but I hope it's clear for you...especially if this damn barium swallow helps with the choking.

The question on everyone's lips, of course, is will you inhale?

That's the Post Office. Not me.

I have no idea whether it will help with the choking.

Inhale what? Barium? Not if I can help it.

I already made up my mind I'm not going. I'm staying awake so I can call and reschedule. Then I'll conk out. I'm out of supplies. When I wake up, I'll see how the weather is. Maybe I'll venture out to the supermarket (under my building).

The snow isn't sticking in the normal white-stuff kinda way. It's turning to sleet. Icy/slippery. Not pour moi. Also, getting home would be a challenge--and risky in a different way. Barium is heavy. I don't know how long it takes to work its way through my body. If I'm delayed, things could get messy. (Sorry to be indelicate, but facts is facts.)

Dropping in to say hello, Roberta. So it's the barium test today, is it?

@spidergal,
I canceled the test for today. I'm trying to reschedule for next week.

Thanks for stopping by to check on me. I appreciate it.

@Roberta,
I have heard of the facts about barium and the...er...."if you gottas go you gotta go" consequences.


I do hope you can re-schedule quickly.

@dlowan,
Even though I left a message on a machine, I kept calling back until I reached a human being. My appointment is now scheduled for two weeks from today. Not a good week for me (two other appointments), but next week was booked.

The weather isn't as bad as was predicted, but I'm glad I don't have to go out.

I'm going to sleep.

Buenas noches, queridos.
Roberta

Awake and breathing in both directions.

Got a lot of stuff to do today. Sheila's coming over later to help me with some stuff, and we'll have dinner.

@Rockhead,
No snow. The sun is trying to make the scene. Too many clouds.

Awake. I can hardly move. I walked a marathon yesterday (five blocks). Got all my errands done. Sheila visited. Helped me with some stuff. Then we went out to eat. Finished my work. I'm lumping today. Both therapists canceled on me.

Awake. Less coughing.

My plans for the weekend are to continue lumping. I finished a major rush work project. No more work.

Gotta dive in to pulling tax stuff together, but not today. Taxes and lumping don't mix.
