The ground is prepared and ready for me to plant the trees. Counted several tmes, still needed to frog but no where the amount of the first page.
Mark is seeing the doctor this afternoon even though feeling better this morning. Strange. Sopping wet sweats, calm, then teeth chattering. No cough, sniffles, sore throat. As always to the dismay of doctors, I search online and the only thing I found with those symptoms is Lyme. I don't feel great and would like answers from the doc if this is a virus traveling here because we have to be well Thursday. She goes by transport, we drive ourselves, but even if it's just a doc consult she has to have me there.
My much loved cousin who spent fall seasons at Carole's house passed away last night. She was right side paralyzed after a major stroke following surgery, and we haven't seen her since she has been in a wheelchair. She had a procedure for occulsion in her leg but her sister said it was more complicated than that as to cause of death. Since this is the procedure Thursday, Carole is quite upset. I need to get the lung CT over tomorrow with good results. I'm starting to feel like a wet rag (mom's favorite description) but I will go because I need to cross this off the stress list.
I got an email about a linen order being shipped that I forgot about. I am forgetting WAY too much. But can still remember friends' phone numbers from 55 years ago. My dad was a whizz at math as if his brain was a calculator. I didn't know that he created drawings and portraits until mom passed and I saw inside her personal drawers. He was fantastic. But he worked a midnight shift and then drove delivery truck right from there until 2 pm to keep us off "relief". No time to pursue art.
Well, I need to go take an Ativan to slow the PVC palps that are pounding my chest and get ready to go. Hope your day is free of stress and sadness. Almost impossible at my age.

I hope your husband is ok. I had similar symptoms in February and had to go to the hospital. It turned out I had sepsis and was extremely ill. I hope that is not what he has. It attacked my liver and I had to have a drain inserted. It was a terrible experience that took over a month to recover. You have certainly had your share of problems. I wish you well.
Condolences on the loss of your cousin, you are so right to be aware that at our age stress or sadness seem to frequent our days so much more than they used to. I try to take pleasure in the smallest of things whenever possible but it can be challenging. You have had to juggle so many unfortunate happenings for a long time now, your own health issues have seemed to take a back burner. Hope Mark recovers quickly , hope all goes well with Carole and hope you find some pleasurable moments in the upcoming days.
