Sorry you can't get any help during the week for the laundromat.

Wish you qualified for some other kind of help. Wish I knew some
answers. I will wish you some good days.

Donna

Thank you, Donna :hug:

I'm hoping that when the dust clears, I'll see some sort of improvement, but I'm probably going to have to go to pool PT. Maybe then I won't need to beg anyone for help going to the laundromat, but I just don't know.

I didn't get around to doing the floors or drinking the mag. citrate yesterday. I was dizzy and lightheaded all day, so I rested and slept a lot. The apartment isn't as clean as I would like, but it is what it is.

I didn't have to call the gastro's office because one of the medical assistants called me. She said she told the NP about my symptoms, and based on my history she wanted me to have an x-ray today. I haven't heard or spoken to anyone in the office since the 6th when I had 11 markers in me, and I told her so. She said there had been a lot of staffing changes?! What BS. I should have passed all those markers by now, but I guess it is possible I haven't. I made an appointment with the NP for May 14th to discuss possible testing and a better long-term solution to my problems.

I have an appointment for a manicure at 10:30 this morning, and it's lottery day. By the time I leave the nail salon, it will be around noon, and the hospital will be very busy, so I will have to wait forever to get that x-ray done. I will be out for a long time (for me), and I'm sure I will be ready for a long nap by the time I get home.

Corey's back on 1st shift today. I'm sure it will be a difficult adjustment for him... he left at noon yesterday, didn't get home until almost 11pm, and was gone when I woke up around 5:30am this morning... ROUGH! I'm so glad he's going back to his regular schedule. It f***ed me all up, too.

Yesterday I finally swept and mopped the floors!

Good job Kay.

You will be back in the swing of it soon. The 2nd shift is over.
So you will get it back in gear. Just keep going is all you can
do.

Whoo Hoo, Kay :circlelove:

I got a new computer yesterday!!! :):):)
My old one was is so archaic, I wasn't able to update my operating system or a million other things for years, which was causing a lot of problems and rendering it almost useless.
I got a MacBook Air, and I love it! It will take me a while to set everything up the way I want and to transfer files tho.

In even better news, I was walking a little bit better yesterday! :):):)
ANY improvement is welcome (and exciting) because I was thinking that I was pretty much scr**ed. I'm still walking very slow, and the improvement was short-lived because I tired quickly, but what matters is there is potential for some kind of recovery :)

Right now, it's looking like I'm not going to get any help with the laundry today, and it just can't wait any longer. I guess I'm going to have to try taking a small-ish load to the laundromat tomorrow, and then another one later in the week :o

that is fantastic about the walking and the computer. I just remember the old movie with alec guiness about inventing clothes that never got dirty.

I am glad that you had some improvement.
This is great news.:Dancing-Chilli:
hope you were able to get a small load done.

We have 3 laundry baskets- one for my clothes, and two for Corey's. Last night I bagged up my socks, undies, and the clothes I really need to wash first. Then I dumped all of Corey's clothes out on the floor, and was totally overwhelmed. I separated everything into piles, bagged up his socks and undies, and tried to take a few things from every pile...
My load of laundry for today (2 big bags) is much larger than I had anticipated, and I'm nervous about going to the laundromat.

Corey was BS at me last night because I had a really hard time waking up from my nap yesterday, and didn't wake up until 6:30pm. Then the hamburger I took out of the freezer Saturday morning was still frozen solid, so we had to order out. He was being nasty, but kept insisting he wasn't upset. There's no good way to deal with that.

I got to see the radiologist's report from the x-ray I had done on Thursday. Thank God all those markers are gone. The radiologist said I was FOS tho. lol. I took a bottle of mag. citrate on Friday, but it didn't work AT ALL. I'm curious what I'll hear from the gastro's office when/if they call.

I am glad the markers are all gone.!
