A friend suggested to me that the reason I may have really felt awful for the first couple days I was home was because I didn't get my flu shot until the day I was discharged. I hadn't considered that because they don't usually cause me any discomfort but this time, I was really still recuperating from some awful problems. Not too smart, Brat!
Cee came by even though the weather was just terrible. It looked as awful as it felt. I swear, the weatherman just can't seem to get the weather right lately. It was supposed to be around 10 degrees warmer and partly cloudy. Nope. Really ugly grey sky and only hit the mid-50's. One report said it would go over 70....LOLOL!
My weatherbug update says thunderstorms before midnight and just a 30 % chance after midnight. We'll see.
Poor Dennis is under the weather and the Beast thinks its the heart worm medication he ground up and added to his food. He had refused to take it in toto and that's when the Beast realized it was the same heart worm medication that Baron refused to take when the vet gave it to us before Baron died. Now he thinks the reason he is acting so sick is because it DID make him sick. We know he doesn't have heart worm because he was tested for that before we adopted him. The poor thing. He just breaks my heart to see him like that . He's usually so *up* and happy. Now he is just laying on his rug, looking depressed and unhappy. I hope it gets out of his system in a day or two. Otherwise, I will make the Beast take him to the vet....partly out of worry and partly because I want the vet to know that it may actually NOT be a good choice for him to be encouraging the use of it.
There is always the chance that it could also be something he chewed up and that scares me a bit. I really and truly hate the chewing phase of puppyhood. Puppies are not too bright about what they eat at times.
At least I don't feel like I have leprosy now that Cee has been to see me. However, the first thing the Beast told her was that I haven't been eating like he feels I should. He made me a pot pie for dinner and it tasted wonderful to me. I damn near finished it all, too! LOL
I had been dreaming about peel-and-eat shrimp when she got here. It seemed so real that, when I woke up, I actually looked around for the shells! So she told him when she left to go home that he should buy me some and make it for me. She probably feels that, if I want it, it might encourage me eating. *Grin*
I AM having fewer bits of nausea now. The getting up and down and some walking around has helped. I know I am getting stronger, at least. Sorry this is all about me and my getting better but I'm not exactly flooded with company these days. Hell, I had more people showing up at the hospital to visit. And then I was well and truly sick. I feel better so now I don't need any? Oh well.
My poor bff is really ticked off at Amazon. She's been trying for a week now to get them to deliver something to me and I haven't heard a word from them NOR received anything. She did, bless her heart, send me some pee pads to make do until I could go out and buy my own. I really was worried about that since I had used up what I had and didn't even have a package to show the Beast what I needed. Besides, I really don't trust him to get the right thing even so. He just doesn't read a package like he should. He is still buying stuff with reduced salt in it that he ends up throwing out because it's just inedible....even to him.
I told my bff not to get upset over whatever it is that she was going to send me. I told her to cancel it and not be frustrated. Her hubby is having problems (physical) and so is she. I am sure I can live without whatever it is. But I don't know. She can be more stubborn that I am....LOL
Well, that's all for now. Love you all. Be good. Stay warm and dry. Take care of your health. ***Hugs***
