dear diary,
Today I looked at osso's tag and didnt know what ephemeral meant... then i felt dumb... then i realized i was dumb and wasnt so sad anymore
Just saw a "G´day" from Margo. Excuse the tardiness, Margo. "G´day" to you too.
Pretty depressed today - trying to work out anger on Doc visit for leg. I'm back in a giant pressure bandage from the knee to 1/2 of my foot - must wear for a week - cannot be removed - they are worried about the water retention in my calf - twice the size of my other calf - - they are worried my skin if going to break. Next week - sizing for a special machine to pump my leg and also a special compression sock\wrap - that along is about $600.
Well look on the bright side - they are not talking about cutting my leg off yet and things could be worse, and they let me come to work.
Hang in Husker. I know this is difficult. Do what the Docs tell you.
Prayers winging.
I'm so sorry to hear that, Husker. I'll say a prayer for you. I hope they get that under control as soon as possible. Or even sooner.
Well like JG said best to follow doctors orders and we all feel for you. Sure hope they can fix what ails you and soon. Looking forward to the next time you're down Mexico way with your camera.
went in after work today to get a rewrap - phew they said looking good - let's wear this type of compression bandage until at least monday - boy I'll tell taking a shower is a pain in the leg - putting it in a trashbag and taping off everything - well it's the best alternative than other things for me!
What do you use to tape it off, a bungie strap? Well, I guess tape holds for a bit.
Sympathy here. Glad it's working.
This all reminds me a bit of my thing, which I won't go on about, but I know you have read, Husker. I have been in varieties of panic re loss of eye, and things have turned around (for now, tap, tap, tap, heh - I say, mostly kidding) and during the developments one needs to have people hear with your same amazement of what is going on.
Know that I am paying attention to how it is going Husker.
I am not someone of faith, to boost you with that, but I am someone of love.
You need rest from these exascerbations, and ease and hope.
I dearly wish you rest, ease, hope, and a vacation doing what you want, which might be going to Mexico.
Not bungee cords. Duct tape.
Husk, I tried to PM, alas, I discovered it was shut down. This is trite, but has been helpful to me through the years...at times, I visualize THIS TOO WILL PAST. Although simple, it has helped me while attending my mother who was dying of cancer and other events. Also, I have become engrained with the attitude of LEARN FROM IT AND MOVE ON. My daughter who has MS and still maintains an active professional life adopted this approach and amazes us all....is this too preachy?
I'm traveling now...so computers are hard to find. I'll catch up with you when I return to NW Georgia.
Maple...good to spot you...your threads live on...
Good heavens, mapleleaf. I was concerned about you. I had no idea about your family's problems. Big hugs, buddy.
Oh my gosh, it's Mapleleaf and Letty!
Oh what sights for sore eyes!
Call me darlings....I miss youse guys! Mapleleaf, are you going to be anywhere near Motown?
Dear Diary,
I've submitted some of my lake poems to a singer/songwriter. Prayers please that he'll find at least one of them worthy of setting to tune on one of his albums. (Oh please, please, please, please!)
Love and peace to all,
Mapleleaf!!! So good to see you. Travelling? I hope you are doing well and we will see more of you soon.
Take care, friend!
JG, it's been a while, my friend. I have missed you as have we all.
Holding good thoughts, and winging stuff.
Thanks Letty! I miss you, Girl!
Hello Frank.
Hello again, everybody!
Would I be right in thinking that the abuzzards who no longer have their old nesting places have come to join the a2ker refugee camp? Welcome.
In particular, JG - I haven't seen you about in ages. Good to see you here.
Big hugs to maple and all those who have experienced problems affecting loved-ones.
I'm much the same as ever - I've been working hard (very hard, it seems at times), travelling a bit and I'm looking forward to a further date with a woman I recently met. Looks promising...I'll let you know if it develops into a relationship of any note.
Must work again, now. Love to you all.
KP
