heavy week

No traffic to speak of. 

25 minutes to work. 

Super good walk 15 minutes. 

I had a great Coaching Session. 

My coach is happy I’m doing well. 

The civilians are not doing well. 

They seem to be doing well

On tinderhooks.

Lol. I’ve always wanted 

To use that word. 

I avoid the one Nurse

by just not showing up early. 

She avoids me 

(The feeling is mutual)

By leaving on time. 

So our paths don’t cross. 

Amen and amen. 

off day

Ugh. Crappy sleep. 

Fun with Flour. 

Never as fun in real life. 

 Somewhere out there is a kid

Who wanted to do 

the cutest YouTube video -

But mommy wasn’t impressed. 

5 years post injury. 

I have no limp. 

I worked hard to make that happen. 

Things are ramping up 

With CV 19. 

I call it Trump Virus. 

Strange days indeed. 

Most peculiar, mommy! 

mental vacation

Three weeks away from home. 

Lockdown at work. 

One more should do it. 

Family cooked Goat

Since they know I love it. 

Thanks  to CV19

I’m guessing the world 

Will NOT be up and running

In 12 weeks. 

So to be prudent,

I am canceling my July Vacation -

And just taking a staycation in place. 

These pics are from last year. 

I loved every moment of that trip. 

I’m planning now to take 3 months off

And really see everything in Colorado. 

All next summer in the mountains. 

The National Parks are closed

And the rafting is on hold. 

So might as well stay here 

and work my butt off. 

Goodness knows so many people

Are not able to work right now. 

This is no time for an able-bodied nurse

To take a month off. 

All hands on deck! 

Back to business as usual. 

The Super Hair Tonic Blend

-from Interstellar Blends- 

Is starting to kick in. 

Gavin said it takes about 2 months. 

Also, because of the H Pylori Blend

 • And quitting drinking wine

• And basically dry fasting 

From 6 pm till 6 am

My ulcer is completely healed. 

No reflux whatsoever! 

Nice and rainy and cool

In the morning. 

Just like being in the mountains. 

I love sleeping with the windows open. 

Ommmmmm ommmmmm. 

Now to learn to enjoy 

a break in place. 

happy shiny day

Hot hot hot. 

No AC

Let that virus burn off 

From 2011 

9 years ago. 

I had more body fat? 

More subcutaneous fat?

Younger? Sure. 

Less weight by 10 pounds then. 

Stronger then too. 

Pre broken leg.  

Every day we write the book. 

For better or worse. 

We write it with our body. 

After this- I am 

Ready for a daily walk. 

A daily constitutional! 

Lol. I get my own constitution.

This is why old people always take walks. 

To get the hell out of the house

And to get a little fitness. 

tsunami coming

I crashed for over 9 hours. 

The bright night sky 

My door

We’re reading another Melville. 

This one is perfect, too. 

All the different workers. 

And joe peculiar they are. 

Butter Chicken 

Generally my face these days. 

Waiting for the storm. 

I’m too old for the Army 

-I’m told-

Which suits me fine. 

But omg - these people!

They lie. And nurses die. 

floor day four

It’s really not Day Four. 

But it rhymes 

So I went with it. 

More like Week Four. 

And it’s 88° F in here 

Canned Chili

And Cottage Cheese. 

My favorite combo. 

On lockdown. 

Speaking of Chili. 

This has all but healed my ulcer. 

Imagine that. 

The very thing they tell you

To avoid - has healed me. 

I am ready for this to be over. 

But I know it won’t be. 

Not any time soon.

The night nurse was being

Her arrogant, 

passive aggressive self...

So I took a walk 

instead of wait for her. 

She likes to ride the clock. 

That is... she starts her last pass

At 700 when she should 

have been clocked out at 0700. 

She walked right past me

To get mom to sign

(And had to wake her up)

Instead of having me sign

When I was right there. 

Fucking Bitch! 

People who intentionally 

Destroy your plans

And your peace

And the peace of others...

...I can’t abide. 

I won’t miss her. 

lock down day whatever

Is it hot in here? Or is it just me? 

This should be called 

OMG Butter Chicken 

Because when you taste it

You will say “OH MY GOSH!”


Ugh. 

My lunch.

Hamburger. 

Sugar Free Sweet Pickles. 

That’s 1000 Island Dressing

Because the meat was so dry 

With no cheese. 

crazy calm before the storm

Went to Mineral Wells

To get Crazy Water. 

Ended up getting groceries 

In Mineral Wells. 

A small store. 

Non perishable items. 

Everyone is set in. 

Locked down. 

Good for us.
