Smiley Monday
i have been down for the last few days and very tired. I went back to bed yesterday and slept until 1130. Today, I had an afternoon nap. This is most unlike me! Perhaps I am fighting off a bug. I did have my flu shot so should be okay on that front.
So what am I smiling about? I gave Joe his last needle in the belly today. His INR (clotting) is improving. Meaning that his blood is taking longer to clot - which for him is a good thing. So he no longer needs a needle. The pills will be enough. His stomach looks like he has taken a beating - blue and yellow bruises caused by the heparin.
It snowed yesterday but we did walk downtown to an organ concert. Today it was sunny but windy. I just didn't have the energy to walk today. So we wimped out and drove to a Gordon Lightfoot concert. It was rather sad. His voice is failing. I wonder why he keeps performing. But it was a blast from the past.
Staying positive has been hard for the last while. But i am doing my best.
I am missing Lisa - a lot.

I well remember, the black, purple & yellow bruises on my tummy, after having my knee replacement surgery. I was too big of a chicken, to give them to myself, so Billy did it for 10 days. I was thrilled when we could stop the shots.
I have been so depressed lately and missing Dean, every minute of the day. I am simply miserable & trying to just survive, as I did, in the very beginning. I am in Mississippi, so cool weather is all I have here. I do hate the way it gets dark so early...I guess I am a control freak, as well. I just want what I want, when I want it, lol... I hope you feel better, soon :)
