Finally, it seems like I am healing and getting stronger. I think my back will always hurt after I'm on my feet for not too long but I just sit down and do handwork and rest it. Once I sit down it stops hurting. I had my wellness exam and all is excellent...they did blood work, chest X-ray, and EKG. Considering all that's wrong with me I am really healthy. He said everyone wishes they had my cholesterol! LOL! But he said the x-ray showed I have emphysema. He said he was surprised because I show no symptoms. I was surprised too as I have no trouble breathing nor do I get out of breath easily. He said he'll keep an eye on it and to tell him if anything changes but so far so good!
I have been cleaning and organizing but it takes me so long. I hired a cleaning person to do the cleaning of toilets and tub as I can't get down there anymore not without "pain and suffering"...lol! I'm sure I'll find more for her to do besides that.
I have accomplished some things....I'm back to making my own bread again............
This week I was able to vacuum and wash the kitchen and laundry room floors with lots of breaks! I made potato soup, and a Jello cheesecake. There were lots of other chores like the regular dishes, laundry, errands, etc. I'm hoping I can get more regular....at least weekly for blogging and daily for reading others blogs. I'm still reading Leslie Meier's Lucy Stone mysteries. I think I've read about 16. I'm way ahead on my Good Reads Challenge of 52 books. As for T.V. I finished Foyle's War series, and Agatha Raisin, and now I go between Father Brown and Death in Paradise...I love the English programs.
That's all for this week!
happy May!!!
