Short and Sweet Weekend Recap
Good Monday morrow to you all. I hopeth thee hath much tomfoolery to reminisce upon from thine weekend. (Damn that would be exhausting to talk like that all of the time.) We've had biblical rain all week and weekend so road tripping would've been out of the question. No one wants to drive on slick roads for hours so we were stuck at home. I am pretty sure unless it's for pizza, we're done eating out for a while. I got so ticked trying to order from a new place and all of the hoops they wanted you to jump through that I said screw it and the Mr was ticked too and said they were shysters. ($42 for what equates to Chinese takeout "bowl". Nope.) Then he mentioned a BBQ place and I was resistant because BBQ always makes me sick, without question. I relented because we'd spent 20 minutes trying to find a place by that time and were both getting irritated. Not like we spent less than we would have if we'd gone to th...
I'm with you and Grover that we can complete all the normal stuff in fewer work days. The wrong people are in charge! Have a great weekend everyone!
ReplyDeleteWhat Grover says goes!!
DeleteMy weekend is the usual this week with work, house stuff, and church. I think it's safe to say the show is finally done for the season so I'll be taking off the chair covers on the deck so we can enjoy a bit of relaxation out there.
ReplyDeleteHave a fantastic weekend!!
That would be wonderful if you could enjoy your outdoor space finally!!
DeleteCount me in on the 3 day work week. By Friday I have surpassed the level of stupid any human being can take without drinking heavily! Some really good reads this week. Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeletešš I hear ya!! You're very welcome!
DeleteI'm about a year behind you age-wise and also always worried about blood clots. A perfect storm of things made me think it wasn't anything like that, but then I could hardly catch my breath walking just a few steps down the hall. It turns out I had several pulmonary embolisms. I'm not trying to make you overthink every symptom in the article, but the complete breathlessness and high heart rate (when lying/sitting down)were what sent me to the ER. I'm very overweight but exercise regularly and I think that's what helped me survive them honestly. They're still hanging out in there but I'm on blood thinners now and have both a hematologist and cardiologist who will keep monitoring me. They were likely caused by a genetic condition it looks like. Hopefully they will dissolve on their own because I don't want surgery. My breathing and heart rate are back to normal but I still deal with an achy chest. Just wanted to give you my experience!
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness! I'm so glad you're okay! The thinners can do a lot. If you have a vein center close to you, you may want to check with them. The people who did the Mr's veins (and soon mine) said they remove dvt's all of the time. Not sure if the same applies to PE's or not but it's outpatient.
DeleteMy mom was susceptible to them and the article made me think of her and how many people don't know the symptoms. Thanks so much for sharing your story!
