Another Day at Home BeauSpeak on Thankful Thursday

 


Here I lie, waiting to be fed,.

while Mama runs about the house taking pictures of breakfast food and a glass jar for me to tell you what we are thankful for.


Today I am thankful that Mama eats french bread for breakfast, and shares with me and Mama is thankful the hot sun outside, sends sunbeams sneaking in the crack of the blinds on the window and pointing out the beauty of the glass candle jar.

Mama is thankful for Fennel Tea and French bread with no preservatives. 
 She eats a slice of bread before coffee and if needed sips Fennel tea, both of which calm the empty tummy so she can have coffee, which is a no for IBS.

Dementia LOOMS

 

Dementia LOOMS, or maybe I am just crazy....
I have 14 black T-shirts hanging in my closet.
Scoop neck, Round neck, V-neck
different lengths, butt long, all different lengths, some below butt long and slight scoop and long scoop in back.
Above t-shirt on the left came with the knot on one side.
the one on the right was straight, longer in back, I used a hair clip to hold up one side.
When dressing to take bob to heart doc, I wanted the clip one. It's warmer and the office is cold. Twice through the shirts and not there.
I yanked out the one on the left and dropped I over my head and ran out the door fussing about where was the clip one.
Back home again, as I removed the blouse I had on, I noticed it was the clip one, I could not find it because I HAD IT ON. OMW!!!!!!!!

Earlier that day I jumped out of bed and I ran in the kitchen and wrote gabapentin on a pink sticky to put on my wallet to remind me to ask the doctor if it might help bob's legs.
As I stuck it on my wallet, I pulled out the white paper to see what it was, and it said....
GABAPENTIN 

Our dog Beau has been on the drug for 2 and a half years and it works on his legs. What's good for the dog should be good for Bob. Just Sayin

I did get bob there, I did ask, and Doc did call it in, and we are trying it, both notes worked, I did not lose my keys or get lost on the way to doc office.

We are testing it starting with 1 each night for a week, 2 each night for a week and if that doesn't help 3 each night for a week and back to the doc to report how it worked.
He has no slept more than 3 hours in a row for 2 years, because of his legs burning.
The past 4 nights he slept 6 hours. we are hoping they will help with his walking, which is really bad.

April Fool Joke is on ME

 


Here's The Scoop on how I played an April Fool's Joke on Myself

Yesterday, I got a text from my brother, and thought it was a April Fool joke, he loves them.
the note said, please resend all important papers that I keep for you, I have hard copy in safe, but accidently deleted my entire Gmail account by doing something on the phone and not on my computer.

It was true, and when I looked for my saved copies they were Gone.. I spent an agonizing hour finding them and I had deleted the ENTIRE FOLDER of paperwork but found it in the TRASH.
Later I put a sticky note on kitchen counter, LAB, to remind me of my blood lab today at 8:40

I pulled today post back in drafts

I made a post for tomorrow and scheduled it to say why I was MIA today and did not comment or post.

Note: we wake up at 3 am, I was awake from 3 to 7 with nothing to eat and 1/2 cup black coffee, FASTING and I complained because I felt nausea with out a slice of French bread with coffee. 3 AM is to early for breakfast (unless you are the dog who eats Promptly at 3 AM)and I eat bread to ease my IBS empty stomach before coffee.

I then deleted all of your posts and as I was doing that, I noticed several titles said

April Fools Day!

I said OH NOOOOO! Bob said What Now? I said,
I staved myself for Nothing and have to do it again tomorrow.
MY LAB WORK IS ON THE 2nd!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! today is the 1st! I wanted to slap him when he said, I knew it was the 1st! 
I am blaming my brother because he put the thought of April fools day in my head and I thought yesterday was the first and today the 2nd .(at least I did not get to the office and be there on the wrong day and have to be embarrassed)

You might get a comment today, you might not. 
 and tomorrow you may see a post and you might not..
