Of course, the fact that I also cooked some gizzards with the chicken thighs (Baron food) may have something to do with it but....oh lord! Does it STINK up the house once you relieve the pressure valve. Yuk!
I had a busy day today. Perhaps knowing the Beast will be home tomorrow has something to do with it or perhaps it's just TIME. Know what I mean? It started with my filling my pill box for the week, which I should have done yesterday but I was just too damn tired. Baron had me up darn near every hour. I think he might have been constipated. You never think of that happening to a dog but I swear, it does happen. Anyway, last night I slept fairly decently and Baron only woke me once so his problem must be over now. I fed him a big bowl of veggies with his chicken yesterday and that may have helped him out.
Today there was garbage to go out since we have to put the can out for collection on Wednesday. I had both the garbage in my room plus the one from the kitchen. I dragged out the collection of boxes I had stacked in here (the ones Chewlee played with on her last sleepover) and, if I can, I will just put them into the garbage can instead of leaving it for the Beast to burn. He hates to have to cut them up first so, since I know he is going to be a basket case when he gets home, I thought I would save him the trouble.
I ran up to Walmart since I had discovered I was low on two of my meds. Important ones. I bought the chicken for Baron to cook up since his supply is low. No sense the Beast pushing himself if I can prevent it. I was smart this time and took the little motor cart the store has for people like me that have a problem with walking. That way I came home and still felt good.
I had a full clothes hamper full of clothes so I decided to wash them while I was feeling decent. They are in the dryer right now....well, most of them. I DO have another load washing. Thankfully, it's a small one. It's pretty much hanging clothes so I can take my time folding up my pj's and underwear that makes up most of the folding stuff.
I have to admit, I haven't felt this energetic in ages. I just wish I had the energy to go out and weed the garden. It looks awful! There are a few weeds that almost smother one of the Beast's tomato plants. I kid you not. I wish we had a kid here we could hire to do the weeding for us. Neither the Beast nor I are really up to the bending (or crawling) that you need to do to get it done. Oh well! What can I say? We are definitely OLD people.
The Beast told me he's ruined his good shoes with all the walking he had to do in Atlanta. I told you he drags his one foot (the one affected by his strokes) and it's worse when he gets tired. He says he's worn the sole out on it and the front is ruined, too. Now I understand why he goes through his sneakers the way he does. The shoes were NOT cheap, either. His sneakers are but not his Sunday-go-to-meeting shoes. Sheesh!
My pre-op testing is on Thursday at 1pm. They will tell me what time to be at the hospital and any other instructions. I'm sure I am going to get more of the damn soap/lotion since it involves most of my leg and part of my abdomen. The surgery, I mean. Not a fun time.
Mustachio was supposed to have his surgery today and I have been worried about him all day long. I tried calling him but all I get is his voice mail so I gave it up. I am sure he needs his rest after all the stress I am sure he has been through. He had to have been very scared. I just hope it worked and he gets the feeling back in that hand.
Well, the dryer is calling me so I am going to close and get that done. Love you all. Hope your week started out great after the three day holiday. ***Hugs***

Cell Phones Can Be A Pain !
The Beast didn't call me until they had reached Auntie M's in NC. He said he got a message that my mailbox was full (it isn't!) but I could hear his conversation with his cousin about dying to get into a pair of jeans and a t-shirt. I called back and related that to him and he was flabbergasted because he knew that was what he had said. I told him that's one of the problems I have with the cell phone I have. We have a couple months left on our contract so we can't move our service just yet but I am taking notes, let me tell you!
I've been paying attention to the ads about no contract cell service and I told the Beast we might want to try one or perhaps even more of those and see what we find out. I just know that I do NOT like our current service even though it is a major one.
Baron has given up on trying to get me to go to bed like he does the Beast. And I found out that, when I DO go to bed, he is sneaking onto the couch to sleep. The Beast said I would and, sure enough, I surprised him when I woke up to go to the bathroom. He jumped up, guiltily, when he heard me. But I saw him via the light I left on over the sink so he was busted....LOL.
I'm ready to hit the sack again but I am feeling much better than I have for the past couple of days. No aches and my hip is back to normal. It was killing me when I had to go to Walmart on Saturday. I have to go tomorrow to get my prescriptions but I don't intend to do more than hit that department and head back home.
I spent a good half hour vacuuming my room up because of the ants I found in here. I still have no idea what, if anything, they are after. There is no food in here or even any crumbs. I vacuumed to make doubly sure of that and then vacuumed up every single ant I could find walking around in here. Damn ants!
Love you all. My son, Mustachio, has his surgery tomorrow (I think that is the date he gave me) so say a little prayer that it goes okay and he gets back the feeling in his hand. The doctor that is doing the surgery is top notch. He was the one that did the first successful hand reattachment a few years back. I pray he just gets my son's feeling back in his hand. That's all he needs or wants.

Darn Dog!
Even tho' I have been going to bed at a decent hour lately (figuring I will wake up after a few hours and be able to write my blog before I go back to sleep), the damn dog has been waking me up about every two hours...sometimes less. I swear, sometimes it's not because he wants to go out to pee or anything but just to bark at things only HE can hear! The result is that I feel twice as tired as I did when I went to bed originally. Sheesh!
I found out yesterday that the Beast isn't going to be home until late Tuesday. By late, I mean probably around 6:30pm or so. He and his sister are going up to see Auntie M today after they get out of the big meeting in Atlanta. It's only about a four hour trip or so from Atlanta to where they live in NC so they will get there kind of late. But they plan on spending the day on Monday just visiting. Who knows whether or not this may be their last chance to visit with her. At her age, she could go at any time. Especially since her health has taken a turn for the worse. Since Bonnie is this close, they figured they might as well make the trip.
The Beast has to have Bonnie at the Huntsville airport by around 4:30pm on Tuesday for her flight back to Chicago and he will be about a two hour trip from home (with his usual stop at Publix included) after he drops her off. I can tell you this much....the Beast will be WEEKS recuperating from this whole adventure according to what he told me about all the walking they had to do to the train station from the Dome to get back to the hotel. The trip today will be just to pick up the car since they had to check out before leaving for the Dome. But the traffic will be a nightmare with all the people that will be heading out of town from there. Even at it's best, the traffic in Atlanta is still a nightmare. I've traveled through it many a time over the years and it only got worse as time went on due to the growth of the area.
He told me about some of the pictures he took of the people from all over the world. The Japanese were there in traditional garb which he said was just beautiful. But it was the people from the Ukraine that blew him away in their colorful garb. He can hardly wait to show me when he gets home. I had bought a roasting chicken to make a good meal for him when he got home today but I guess I will just have to wait until Tuesday now. It's just as well. I'm too damn tired today to make the stuffing, etc. that I had planned on. If I can only get Baron to settle down at night......!
I went to put his bed next to my recliner the other day so that he would feel more comfortable in here with me when I was on my computer. LOL! That was a mistake. He got so upset at my moving it (with no faith I would return it, I guess) that he was trying to yank it out of here to put it back himself. I got the message and returned it to it's proper place (in his mind). He then plopped down on it like he was daring me to move it again....LOL! The Beast got a good laugh at that when I told him.
Now, if I fall asleep in my recliner, he will leave his bed and come and lay down in my room but, as soon as I wake up, he zooms off to lay down on his bed again until he sees I am not interested in it. Then he will relax and come and eat his food or want to go out to do his business or just sniff the air to see what's going on in the neighborhood.
It's been fairly cool (considering) the past few days with the weather hitting 84 as a top temp. We had a light drizzle today so Baron trusted me enough to actually lay out on the deck to enjoy the cool air. Today it got a bit warmer (86 degrees F) but we had a nice breeze going so it dried off the deck enough for Baron to lay down on it. Otherwise, he would never had done that. He does NOT like getting wet except for his bath and he will even fight that initially.
I caught Baron sniffing in the garbage today so I had to close the lid. I know what he smelled....the chicken bones from his chicken the Beast cooks up for him every week. When I looked at the time, I realized I was about an hour late feeding him his morning meal. Yes, he gets fed twice a day and always has the dry food he can snack on. Since he's not getting a run every day, he's not eating as much anyway but he wants it when he usually gets it even if he waits to eat it. He will check his dish just to see if it's there for him. He can be so damn funny at times!
I have to order my diabetes meds when I am done with this. I went to fill up my pill box and realized that I only have today and tomorrow's worth of them. That means I MUST make another trip to Walmart tomorrow to pick them up and I am dreading that. I really can't walk around that store without being in major pain in a very short time. But a walk to get the prescriptions and back out shouldn't be too bad, I hope. We don't need anything else that I can think of so I should be able to get in and out in a short time.
Love you all. Talk to you later. Have a great week. ***Hugs***

HAPPY JULY 4TH EVERYONE!!!!!!!!
Tonight was the Beast's first night in Atlanta. He called me around 4pm and told me all about his day and how horrible his day in Atlanta traffic was. He said he had walked so much before and after his meeting that he thought he would collapse. He was on his way back to the hotel, which he said was really nice, for a nice bath and then sleep. He had to be at the stadium at 7am which meant he had to be up early to get dressed.
His sister is flying in on an early bird flight tomorrow morning and will take the shuttle to the hotel and then take a taxi to the stadium. They will meet up there since she knows to just ask for him at the security desk.
Baron has been very unhappy. He made such a fuss about me moving his bed from next to our bed (I was going to put it here in my computer room so he would feel free to lay down), that I had to put it back in it's place there. He also was yelling at me (so to speak) when I didn't go to bed when he was ready. He finally settled down for a couple hours then came into my computer room and plopped down on the floor next to me. He wasn't happy about it but he settled down.
I got my potato salad and my fresh fruit salad made up and it's in the fridge now staying cool. I had a bowl of each, of course, for my dinner. Maybe not the best meal but it sure hit the spot. I will thin down the dressing on the fruit salad tomorrow since it is a bit thicker than I like it. I could have done it tonight but my hands were just too tired and sore. I did a lot of cutting and slicing up of all the veggies and fruits. I haven't made both things for the same occasion for two years, I think it is...or perhaps, three.
Mustachio didn't come down for a visit. It left me feeling a bit depressed since I was looking forward to it. We always have fun. He could have seen Gunner and visited with Tara and her kids in a relaxed but fun setting while we watched the fireworks. He said he would come down for a visit after his surgery next week but I have MY surgery the week after that. My surgery will be really invasive and not leave me very mobile for a while. It means going to the Wound Center weekly and having a nurse come every day for at least a month.
The Wound Center will be a several month course unless I heal better this time. All I can do is wait and see.
It's late and I am tired. I guess I will sign off now and get some sleep. Love you all. Hope you have a nice July 4th planned and enjoy the fireworks. Be safe. ***Hugs***

This Will Be Short....
Got the Beast's car all packed up for him. I found out one of the reasons he is leaving so early is because he has no idea how long it will take him to get to the stadium once he gets to Atlanta and he has a meeting there for the security people at 11 am. I have to remember to remind him that there is an hour's difference in the timeline from here to there. It takes about 2-1/2 hours to drive to Atlanta if you don't stop. He filled up the Prius with gas so he won't have to stop for that at least. All I have to do is make sure he eats something before he leaves or he will be stopping at McD's for breakfast. He loves their pancake and sausage breakfast...and it's fairly cheap. But he won't have the time depending on just when he leaves.
I am feeling a bit depressed. The family get-together won't really be happening like I had hoped. My son Marcus and his family are not coming and Tara's kids are going somewhere with someone (I don't know all the details) so she won't be coming for the barbeque at the Princess' house. Mustachio is still debating on whether or not he is coming down but he might because I am having my surgery (and it IS major) just a few days after his. I suspect he will come just because it will be kind of nice to visit without the Beast being around.
I am still planning on making my potato salad and some fruit salad for the barbeque. If nothing else, it will be a nice addition to whatever the Princess is planning. I know Johnnycakes is planning on smoking some meat. He's really good at that, too. I'll call the Princess and find out if she wants me to pick up some hot dogs or anything else since we won't be adding so many to her plans.
Later on we will go down to the lake to watch the fireworks but we will go early. That way we won't have to fight for space for our chairs. Chewlee wants me to bring her beach chair for her to sit in. It will be the first time it's seeing the beach....LOL.
The Beast's big worry is Baron. He's afraid I will neglect him. Like he would let me...LOL. The dog knows how to command attention when he needs/wants something. Oh well. Life goes on. I haven't seen the fireworks here at all yet. The Beast is not big on it and for the last couple years, I was recuperating from all the damn surgeries I've been through.
We are looking at some really hot weather the next week or so and I am loving it. No rain predicted. *Grin* I hope you have a fantastic holiday weekend. I'll let you know how mine goes. ***Hugs***

Doctor's Orders....
Got a call from the doctor today. After reviewing the results of my angiogram, he didn't want to delay doing my bypass any longer than necessary so....the surgery is scheduled for July 14th. I won't get the exact time I have to be there until I go in for my pre-op on the 10th.
It's funny but I was sitting in my computer room earlier, thinking about my bypass on the right leg that was done two years ago. I realized that this bypass scares the crap out of me. It took me so long to recuperate from the last one and then even longer to regain strength in that leg. THAT is what scares me.
Also, the Beast is not a really great nurturer. He really doesn't have much empathy for others, just feels sorry for himself when he's in pain and he whines a lot. I don't like to whine and demand attention. But I do know when I am not getting any at all. That's the Beast. He does try to remember that I should be fed and he doesn't expect me to do all the things I normally do...like fold laundry if I am sleeping or in too much pain to sit upright. I have to ask him for anything I need or want. He doesn't just normally think of things, like water or even coffee, which he knows I could IV....LOL!
So, say a few prayers for me if you think of it now and then. I can use any you can send out for my recuperation. One of my friends says that I might just do better this second time since I already know what it will entail. I sure hope so. That would be nice for a change. This surgery I just had (the roto-rooting...aka balloon surgery) happens to be a bit more painful than my last one. It's the left foot that is giving me fits. If that is a sign, then I won't fight over getting the bypass done. It may mean the difference between keeping my foot or losing it. Not a nice thought, is it?
It was 92 degrees out and the Beast finally got the lawns done. He hasn't done the trim work yet but he still has one more day to do that. It's a man thing, I know. He will be able to relax a bit on his trip to Atlanta.
Love you all. Have a great week and keep cool. ***Hugs***

Home Again, Home Again, Jiggetty Jig!
I'm home! Made a mistake on the day I was to have my angiogram and, if the nurse hadn't called by mistake, I would have missed it! Thank goodness I seldom eat right away after waking up. I made it to the hospital in time for all the BS they put you through. There was an intervention so I had to spend the night (of course!) and got some bad news. I have to have another bypass but this time in the left leg. I knew something was wrong with that leg just from the pain I had when I walked any distance at all. A trip to Walmart that involved walking to the back of the store damn near crippled me. I was lucky to make it back to my car. Thank goodness it was the left leg and not the one I need to drive.
I can't drive now until I see the doctor in two weeks (Ha!). We'll see about that stuff. When I have the bypass surgery is up in the air at the moment. The doctor says if I don't have any more pain in that leg, we can postpone it for a while but.....I believe I will have to have it within the next month.
For someone who never really liked fatty foods or the kind of soppy, greasy stuff the Beast loves, I can't believe how I am having plaque problems in my arteries. Sheesh!
I did finally get my pneumonia shot before I left the hospital. It's only a year overdue but better late than never.
Well, I need to try to get some sleep. They woke me every half hour to check my blood pressure, temperature, incision and take my blood sugar. You can never sleep in a hospital, I swear! If they aren't waking you, those beds are uncomfortable as hell. I yearn for my own bed and my recliner. They are both more comfortable than any hospital bed....LOL
It's going to be really hot outside today (in the low 90's) and I am looking forward to it. They keep those rooms at the hospital cold as ice.
Love you all. Hope your week is better than mine! ***Hugs***

For someone who never really liked fatty foods or the kind of soppy, greasy stuff the Beast loves, I can't believe how I am having plaque problems in my arteries. Sheesh!
I did finally get my pneumonia shot before I left the hospital. It's only a year overdue but better late than never.
Well, I need to try to get some sleep. They woke me every half hour to check my blood pressure, temperature, incision and take my blood sugar. You can never sleep in a hospital, I swear! If they aren't waking you, those beds are uncomfortable as hell. I yearn for my own bed and my recliner. They are both more comfortable than any hospital bed....LOL
It's going to be really hot outside today (in the low 90's) and I am looking forward to it. They keep those rooms at the hospital cold as ice.
Love you all. Hope your week is better than mine! ***Hugs***
