Hang in there, Penny

There’s not a whole lot to say.. just hang in there.. I am sure, you will get a handle on it. And I am crossing my fingers for you, so that things may go as you hope !!!

Not much  new here. Oh, well, maybe there is..

Jan had (what they thought at the time was..) a mild stroke at work just two weeks ago. He couldn’t walk straight, kept bumping into everything on his left, had a bad headache and couldn’t talk right. So they immediately took him to the hospital, which he left 6 hours later (against doctor’s recommendations).

He came home early, up to this point no-one had contacted me. I couldn’t believe it when he told me. I was very upset with him for leaving the hospital (AND for not having anyone contact me)!

He has been on convalescent (spelling?) leave this past week. He has also had two MRI’s, but nothing showing other than the left arterie in his head is way smaller than the right one. He is back to work as of today… Can you believe it??? Why did I go for a younger guy again??? He is only 30!

My blood pressure seems fine now. Still a bit high, but I am happy with it. I take one to 1 1/2 pills a day. Not bad.

I don’t notice a big change (other than having warm feet more often).

I hope you get a handle on your anxiety attacks. I think I may have had that, when I was going through that (somewhat) tough time with Dad… but I never had it checked. I am sure, it didn’t do anything for my blood pressure either, though… Take the pill, already! ;)

It has really gotten cold here, too Penny. We are way below freezing, even during the day. It sucks.

Oh.. one piece of good news… small piece but nonetheless…

I have joined the huge community of ebay :) and actually bid on a shoe cabinet. I got it for one Euro! *lol* Now I am looking for a clothes closet-thingy-me-bob… (Kleiderschrank).. But so far my bid always gets beat at the end of the auction… Oh well, I am on it, though.

The post below is password protected, also (assuming it worked out). It should be the same password as Penny’s post.

Well, hang in there, Penny.

This and that…

Finally, this quarter is done. I really struggled with the HR class. I am a 3.5 grade point average student, but I met my match with this teacher. Not to sound discriminating, but I really think she needs to start enjoying retirement and not teaching. She knows her stuff, but her methods and information are years behind (we are learning of off lecture tapes – 27 hours worth – that are 10 years old). She also asigned a lot of homework and research assignments. Perhaps she believes it’s the only class we are taking. Very frustrating. I am hoping for a B in the class, but I think I should conside myself lucky if I walk away with a C. I will raise a stink if I get a D in it.

The next post will be password protected. The password will be Papa’s middle name.

This is even worse !!!

Doc says, that I have high blood pressure. The 24-hour test showed, that I pretty much around 160:100 all the time… So now I have one pill a day… no biggie, since that’s not the only pill I am taking *lol*

 

I haven’t finished all the tests, yet, though.. Today is the day (and I am sorry if this grosses you out)… I get to take a 24-hour urine test.. yep.. It’s as gross as it sounds.. I have to pee in a cup until tomorrow morning.. then pour it into this big jar.. and take it back to the dr tomorrow.. great isn’t it? Yet another day, where I won’t leave the house for long…

What’s worse, yet, is that I wasn’t allowed to drink coffee, black tea, eat bananas or oranges three days before today.. Well, the tea and fruit, I can handle.. but no coffee since Sunday ???? That’s rough! I drink peppermint tea in the morning.. somehow that doesn’t really wake me up ;)

Went swimming this morning, well more like noon, but anyway. That was nice. Still have water in my ear, though :)

 

Other than that not much going on. Jan works long hours. My work is going well, too – except this short work. I am starting to get used to it. We will be off from December 23rd, until January 13th. Then we have to work a regular 5-day work week for the rest of the month… How am I going to deal with that ???? *lol*

Penny, hang in there with school.. You are doing it for yourself! Remember that!

 

Well, good to hear that everyone is still alive :)
