Having coffee and looking out the window at dark clouds that are about to explode and rain down on all the land.
I am in la la land right now and feel like I'm drunk or something... After three days of not eating...the 4th day now....only a clear liquid diet and the last two nights spent prepping for a colonoscopy.......Yep, I was advised to do two or three nights of the laxative thing....I opted for two...as I knew even that would be too much for me..and it was.....so no sleep for me the last two nights at all...The bathroom was where I spent most of my nights..... yes, i decided to do this thing since every other thing has been checked on me thoroughly..accept for that...It was bloody hell...I had a nervous break down last night...... but today I had the colonoscopy...and was put under for an hour, so the strongest anestesia so far and no sleep has put me in la la land all day... She see saw stuff...and she knew it was not my fault...and she was determined not to put me through anymore....so she went ahead anyway with different scopes...her scopes kept getting clogged up ...but she was determined..and found 5 polyps in my colon..one was too huge....and she removed it...and burned out the others....I seem to be prone to big polyps...it seems. She said the big one could have been the root of a lot of my problems here...and that she thinks I will start feeling better now....and that she was proud of me...finally...she knows now,. I always followed directions...after seeing what she did....I have bonded with this doctor after all of these months...good woman! I was on a new kind of prep last night...two doses over 6 hours. I started at 10pm...and 64 ounces of water ......40 before the second dose....18 after the second dose...fun...NOT! by the end I was gagging and dry heaving into the waste paper basket.... It was all a nightmare, and so glad it is all over now. I am making oatmeal now......and going to eat that soon after so many days of not eating anything... YAY! I am happy. I got through this shitt...Literally! lol Never again.!
I was thinking about my Madeline doll house about a week ago wanting to set it up again,. I have all of the furniture and things for it here in a big plastic bin that I know where that is......but have not seen the doll house since we moved here in 2008. It is big, but folds up and you can store it that way..i know I put it in big hefty bags or boxes or something like that... I spent a few days looking everywhere for it....in all of the storage places here...looking over and over again the same places.....It was maddening... Well, it disappeared....simple. It is not anywhere here where I live.....and to try to figure out what happened to it..befuddles me......Did it get left on the moving truck? I kind of remember looking for a place to store it once we moved in here, though..There was so much going on then and so many things to put in place and get settled....and with 7 cats and 3 dogs at the time...my mind was never concentrated on one thing. So I gave up and bought another......I loved that thing....and since I have everything here for it still. and while I was looking I saw this photo...and it got me through the last few days....That is Madeline on your left in the blue coat and Nicole on your right with the pink dress..... I do have these dolls, too... Anyway, the photo and dolls just struck me....two dolls that have been loved.....and not trying to prove anything to anyone..be glamour pusses or sex pots or anything.........they are just who they are...I love Nicole in the pink dress....I got a pink dress like that one coming for my Nicole now, too. I was so moved by this particular photo...that I am writing a story now inspired by my thoughts and feelings. Back to basics here...and what is really important in life...
@Moonglow181 my mom lost a ton of weight and had all kinds of digestive issues called by a colon mass, they can definitely cause issues and slow down your digestive system. The experience was probably horrible but I hope you find some relief now after having so many polyps removed
@Moonglow181 I am sorry to hear about your medical issues: sickness seems to be the norm among the membership right now. Sending positive thoughts and healing white light to all of you. I hope that you are able to get your appetite back and suppress your suffering!
It hasn't rained for a whole day so I'm going to go see if my lawn is dry enough to mow without getting stuck somewhere....as it's going to rain again today.
Talking to people at work who are sad I’m leaving. It’s weird, I always felt like the odd girl out here but come to find out, I wasn’t. At all. *bittersweet tears*
I have one more week here, but word is getting around now to other departments. It’s weird. I know I’m making the right decision but I will miss some of the people here.
