Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!
Sing hey! for the bath at close of day
That washes the weary mud away!
A loon is he that will not sing:
O! Water Hot is anoble thing!
O! Sweet is the sound of falling rain.
and the brook that leaps from hill to plain;
but better than rain or rippling streams
is Water Hot that smokes and steams.
O! Water cold we may pour at need
down a thirsty throat and be glad indeed;
but better is Beer, if drink we lack,
and Water Hot poured down the back.
O! Water is fair that leaps on high
in a fountain white beneath the sky;
but never did fountain sound so sweet
as splashing Hot Water with my feet!
Morning all. :~)
And that’s the rest of the story :~)
Thanks! At least there was some small grain of truth in the Paul Harvey story. I was beginning to question my sanity.
Nah, I believed that it was something!
I was just questioning my observation skillz. ;-)
Morning.
Is it the weekend yet?
~sip~
Yes. :~)
Sis...you know that I can get worked up. But when I do, I rant and rave and carry on and get it all out of my system. It may take a while, but I sure don’t hold it in, right?
Lately, nothing has had me all that upset. I’ve been pretty content with my family, finances, church, support group, friends, everything. My blood pressure has had me a bit rattled lately, but every time I change my medicine I feel optimistic that the solution is nigh. I’m not freaking out over anything at all.
Just got off the phone with Steve. Good to talk to him, I like him, we talked about a job he applied for. No stress at all, I’m content as a clam.
A clam with a tingly face.
I checked my BP and it was 176/120.
I took my second blood pressure medicine, so maybe it’ll go down. If not, I guess I’ll call my doctor. Again.
Everyone keeps asking me if I’m under stress. The other day when my BP went up to 200/122, I was sitting on the couch relaxed, watching Antiques Roadshow.
It’s not stress causing this. My pulse rate is 56.
I’m afraid they’re going to keep asking me if I’m under stress until I keel over and die.
WTH? Indy’s getting a little long in the tooth, ain’t he?
Sounds like fun.
Sounds more like they are offensive to HER, because they are all TOO appropriate. ;o)
Whoops!
You gotta stop watching all that racy TV! ;o)
Seriesly, hon, I hope they figure out what the dealie is on your BP!
Not nearly weekend enough...
And when do you get the results from your arm test?
It's just goofy!
Hours and hours still to go... ugh...
Yah. And I still feel like my head is going to explode.
Girl, you’re just gonna HAVE to break down and go to the doctor. Let ‘em do a CT scan of your head and see if your sinuses are all stopped up.
I think I’m going to give it the weekend, and then make an appointment if I’m not feeling better by Monday. I’ve not actually been to a doctor here, so I’ll have to figure out what my options are anyhow.
Just seems like I should have more symptoms if it was a sinus infection. And that I would have had problems in the past. Usually I just get migraines and the occasional tension headache. Maybe this is just a weird migraine, I dunno.
I did try the wash stuff this morning...which is a sign of how much I want this to quit. I really, really don’t like the feeling of getting water up my nose. Part of why I never learned to do much more than dog paddle and backstroke...
It’s a three day weekend you know...
Fer you.
Only for lazy people :-p
Ask some of your coworkers for a recommendation and call today. Don’t waste the weekend, they won’t get you in until next week anyway but if you wait then you’ll have to wait even longer. You can always call and cancel if you feel better Monday.
