Good morning!
So glad you are on the mend Val. Sounds like just in time for your busy week. You better plan a little extra nap or something in there (somehow!) as it sounds like a hectic schedule when you may not be 100%. You are however very prepared from the sounds of it.. Good luck with Charlie!!
I know we have a legal system but really, someone who stabs someone that many times does not need to be in society. I found the article rather weird, as the first article claims a gang of people assaulted him. Then he apparently dies at some point then no mention of the gang ..why would they be touching him inappropriately either. How do you not charge the guy with murder and think it is manslaughter..
Rather scary story on those Ford explorers too!!
There are sure a lot of crazy people in the world..
Roger you sound like you are in the last throes of winter there. Bless you for going out!! That is dedication!!
Nice catch on my timing to visit my son. You would think after 20 years of nite shift I would not make that mistake. But you are right..I stay up late but think of it as the same day,lol!!
Great lake visit, nice to get out..Take care all!!! ...Jan
I do not always agree with the way the legal system works, As an example way to many people caught committing a scrim in New York City have been arrested over 100 times, How the heck are they out on the street to commit more crimes ?
Crazy People is You being kind.
I hope the really cold weather is done here also.
I worked a lot of years on a night shift to, The worst thing is swing shifts, You never really adjust to them.
I'm glad You had a good time.Good morning!
Awesome about Charlie, Val!! Hope each day you are feeling stronger!!
Roger, I know I am not a day person, but dang you are an early riser!! Good for you!! Sounds nice to walk seeing the moon like that! My daughter is on spring break this week. Hope to spend some time with her. Sunday cooking for the church group again. This is open to the whole church, mainly though for guests and newcomers. And of course our group stays. Too much food..and yummy. Did not do well today, lol..
Take care all!! ..Storms for Monday here... ...Jan
I am sure you can get going with the Keto again. It's like riding a horse, You get thrown, You get back on right away.

Congratulations Roger on your consistent maintenance and routine walking! You’re an inspiration.
Congratulations Jan on your weight loss and getting back on the keto wagon.
I’m having a bad afternoon. Morning was good, no cavities and i like the dentist.
Then i went to work. My aneurysm has been swollen all day (which is unusual), and it butst during a meeting so i excused myself and ran out to control the bleeding. My dic couldn’t see me, my ent couldn’t see me. Found a neurologist but they wouldn’t see me without a referral. Went back to ENT and he said no. So I’m in bed in severe pain waiting for it to burst again. Ig pushes ilon my brain and make thinking hard.1 -
Good morning,
Val, I guess I did not remember you having and aneurysm. I have probably forgotten and need to look back. Maybe you should go to the ER. Sounds awful, and a terrible timing this week to boot. I sure am sorry..
You are pretty inspirational, Roger! All the storms missed me today. It was just very dark with terrible lightening. There was some wind damage here and there, due to mostly straight line winds.
Jenny came over today and she helped me clean most of a bedroom. We filled the entire trash container past the brim, shredded and my car is filled with stuff for goodwill. Nice feeling. Not quite done, though. She worked way harder than I did. Bless her!!
Val, hope to hear from you and how you are doing!!
Roger, take care!! ...Jan1 -
Jan-Great job on the cleaning and getting rid of un-needed stuff.
Ive gad this aneurism for 6 years. Only thing ER cares about is immediate death so they just stop the bleeding after it rolls and pops. They shove afrin-soaked gauze up the nose...and charge an arm and a leg. So i do that myself. When it fills, it presses in my brain which hurts and causes ne to panic. Then 1- minute to 1 hour later, it rolls over and bursts through the top of my right sinus, causing a deluge of blood. Today it happened at work while i was talking to a manager. When i felt it roll i said oh ko, jot kiw. Then I felt it burst and plugged my nose, said excuse me I have to go, and ran out. My doc wasn’t available, my ENT wasn’t avalable, I found a neurologist that refysed to see me without a referral. My ENT declined to provide that referral. The last bad episode was 1/2 hour after i was discharged from the hospital with sepsis (so a year and 3 mos). I have multiple minor bursts per year. Today’s was the most painful and lasted from noon to 6:30 pm. Most are done in an hour, two tops.
Previously the ent said he couldn’t do anything unless i was there before it bursts. But with such limited window plus weekends, he’s never been able to fit me in! Im really sick of this.1 -
I was so out of it...when the neurologist office asked my name, I gave them my maiden name! I’ve have had this married name for twenty years!1

More humor will be posted shortly, That poor Cat
Hi
I'm back home from walking and nothing was found. Yesterday I neglected to mention that in addition to the pennies I found I found a unused 1 cent stamp on the Post Office floor as I was mailing off the payments for the Gas & Electric and Credit Card bills. The Temperature out the door was showing 35 degrees
We had good news yesterday, The legislation to pass Legalized Marijuana was withdrawn by the Governor. My guess is that happened when he could not get enough votes to pass it and he hates losing or criticism so he can avoid a loss.
My brother should be picking up the free ham earned by spending $400 in a defined time period on Wednesday. We were less that $3 from that goal Sunday After last year he wants to get it right away as somehow someone redeemed the free ham in south NJ last year and he had to spend some time at the Courtesy Counter to get one for us.
Seems a bit strange to me

No cavities is good.
Work not so good, Where is the Aneurysm ? I'm thinking Nose ? I had a Nose bleed when I was young that would not stop and I ended up in the hospital. I still have occasional nose bleeds that packing some Kleenex in the nose stops pretty quick so no problem. What problem that might be if I was on blood thinners which I'm not does not bare thinking about.
OTOH You seem to be indicating it pulses in Your brain and that is not good.hope4change_val wrote: »Jan-Great job on the cleaning and getting rid of un-needed stuff.

It really sounds like the health care industry in Texas is no good and or that Your health plan stinks.
In Your shoes I would be both frustrated and beyond sick of it. Be Strong.hope4change_val wrote: »I was so out of it...when the neurologist office asked my name, I gave them my maiden name! I’ve have had this married name for twenty years!
I wondered if that was how they treated it if it was the nose. When that bad nose bleed happened they put something in the nose with a thread all the way into the mouth to keep it there as I remember it.
Good Luck

Don't feel bad, That is not something I remember either.
The ER could be a problem depending on the health plan. Some of them have started a policy where You need to be dying to go to the ER or they leave You to pay for it, So wrong.
Anthem among health insurers refusing to pay ER bills, doctors say
https://www.cbsnews.com/news/anthem-among-health-insurers-refusing-to-pay-er-bills-doctors-say/
Cloyd had an Anthem Blue Cross PPO health insurance plan and thought she would get charged just a co-pay for her ER visit. Instead, 15 days later she received a letter from health insurer Anthem. "Your condition does not meet the definition of emergency," read the letter. She was responsible for the total ER bill -- $12,596.
What Brittany endured is becoming more common in the health insurance industry, according to a Doctor Patient Rights Project (DPRP) study.
That weather sounds bad enough to me. Once again You were lucky with no damage.
My Brother goes on cleaning binges where if he has not used something for a couple of years, Out it goes also.
That's nice donating things You do not need

Shocking news for that article on ER visits. That is so not right. I guess we were always lucky, if you want to call it that, we all had asthma problems.Luckily breathing was covered. At least for now. It is ridiculous what you had to go thru to be seen, Val. I hope you are doing better.

Hi all. I am feeling much better, thank you. Suffice it to say, i now have my ENT’s attention. He’s ordering a CT scan with IV contrast. Then it can be surgically repaired. It is an artery above my right sinus, about 2-3 inches in from my face. Most of the time, it’s no problem. But when it presses on brain, thinking becomes so hard. I had forgotten that ENT initially suggested the scan in 2014, but I declined. I was too scared; I didn’t want anything to be wrong. Denial!! Ugh. Reality check, something is wrong, it is adversely affecting my life, and i need help to get it fixed.

Shocking is an understatement as I see it. They are effectively making the insured decide what is an emergency by scaring then with the prospect of large bills. I am also sure that any savings from the restrictions will not go to lower premiums So far so good with Medicare.
My brother will be buying enough today to also pick up the free ham (low Sodium) That should eliminate the problem from last year of someone in South Jersey redeeming the free ham and requiring my brother to spend time at the courtesy counter to get the free ham.
Good Luck with the Chinese, You would think that Chicken Broccoli would be low calorie and low carb, Not so according to nutrition info. I think the that the Moo Shu ordered without the 4 thin pancakes and rice with the sauce on the side might work OK, It is a Multi Vegetable dish with a choice of protein after looking at the Takeout menu. I ordered the wrong thing the other day and ended up with a large portion of flat noodles as the main ingredient, I have just finished recovering from that Whoopsie.
Ha I'm happy to be productive once a week these days, two days in a row would be WOW
Sadly our Governor has already promised to bring it up again at a later date, Doing it the State Senate when it should be done with a referendum on the Ballot. Why have the people of the state vote on it when they might turn it down seems to be the way our state government works.

I am happy that You are now feeling better. If they suggest surgery then that could be the end of it making your life miserable. Good Luck with the CT scan. I can understand why You were in denial, I do that for more than one thing.
Losing the weight could, should be helpful dealing with the hernia surgery in more than one way as I see it.
Enjoy the Chili Cook-off
Roger2 -
Good morning!!
So glad you are doing better Val. And glad someone is addressing it. Trust me, we are all guilty of denial in some regard. You are not alone. You have had so much to go on and such fights to get adequate care, I hardly would blame you. Bravo for making it happen!! Positive Dr feed back is so important!!
Did good on the Chinese, but could not help myself. I stopped by Peach Park on the way home which is open now and had a homemade hand held peach pie and home made peach caramel ice cream...not keto!! That's my oopsie, lol....not a lot of remorse either!
Chili cook off sounds great!! Pretty sure I would like that! Your vegetarian chili sounds good too, Val!!
Okay, I really prefer my pilot to know when he is in route to the wrong country. I do not think the British Isles and Scotland look a lot like interior Germany... Scary!! Though not as scary as the stalking story. Who does that and why...sick.. and unreal!
Cool to see deer in the neighborhood. Wish you would post a shot of your street or neighborhood one day Roger. It just sounds awfully nice!! Though that would not be so private I guess!!
Keep trucking all!! Take care!! ...Jan1 -

He was nicknamed "Wrong Way" in 1938. After a transcontinental flight from Long Beach, California, to New York City, he flew from Floyd Bennett Field in Brooklyn, New York, to Ireland, though his flight plan was filed to return to Long Beach.
As for the stalker we have had something similar here in NJ

New Jersey seems to be the home for weird and creepy events. Jersey had its own mythical creature, a deadly theme park, and a rumored portal to another world. Now, there's another mystery haunting New Jersey. It doesn't feature ghosts, aliens, or devils, but one man called "The Watcher," who's making life hell for one family in the formerly safe town of Westfield:

Hello Val2 -
Hi. I worked until 9:30pm last night and tonight. Nose still feels good. Throat still a little sore with cough...never fully recovered from that infection. Court was supposed to be today but got postponed until Tuesday. My dog-Rescue friend sent me flowers today as appreciation for all i do plus with get well wishes. Tomorrow I’m driving Em and her friend to a teenager event at our art museum. So I’ll be out late. Then Saturday is a dog adoption event. Boudreaux is such a lovely doggo. Easy to care for...sweet, calm, and fun.

Good morning,
Love the flowers, Val! They are just beautiful and very thoughtful, too! Sounds like quite the week. I know you will be happy when things settle down some! Good luck with the adoption event. And have a great time dropping the kiddos, I actually miss all that car pooling we used to do!
Creepy articles about The Watcher. There used to be a scary movie with a similar theme. Maybe it is someone from that time era!
I cannot blame the chinese food for the craving.. I just love going to Peach Park and their peach products.. no excuse needed. They have wonderful BBQ and waffle fries too!!
jenny and I hit an antique store today. She grabbed up an old butter dish before I did..It was pretty funny. I had been going back to get it, and out she came with her find. It was from the 1950's and had the glass top too. I did get a first print 1940 songbook with piano music of Stephan Foster. A good find in pristine condition.
Pretty weather here. Pain for Sunday though. Sunshine in the 70;s with cool nights in the upper 40;s..

Sat dog adoption. Sunday tax preparation (I’ve never been this late). Monday brain CT with IV contrast. Tuesday court. I’m already exhausted.
Just dropped the girls off. It’s the McNay Art Museum in San Antonio.
That story about the terrorist trying to derail the high-speed train is frightening.
I'm not sure that uncompensated time like that is legal these days. I tried a salaried position back in the 70s and it stunk to be kind.
You have a Busy few days ahead of You. When You say Tax preparation do You mean getting ready for an accountant or that You do Your own ?
Fortunately the terrorist failed to cause the mayhem that was intended. Germany as well as England and other European countries have been having a worse time with terrorists than we have. What kind of mindset do those vermin have, they attack the people in the countries that took them in ?
Have a Great Saturday

Hi Jan2 -
Good morning.
Interesting and scary articles abound you have posted! I was looking up The Watchers movie, then forgot to post for the day. What is wrong with people anyway . They certainly do feel very entitled nowadays don't they. Very arrogant.
Many of the terrorists had no intention of joining the country that they are in. Their sole goal is to take it out, not become part of a positive nation.
Congratulations on finding money again..11 cents..a bigger find!!
I can not quite get back on keto. I am going to do a few days of more like weight watchers. Church really derails me, especially now that I can not rely on May May coming in and out. It is very stressful missing church, or some aspect of it. Bummer..
The Watcher movie I remember is the one with Corey Haim. Just reminded me of your article on the N.J. house. There is an older one with Bette Davis I saw as a kid too, though I do not remember that one much..it was a lond time ago!!
I am making a hamburger vegetable soup for today. Just a taste for it...comforting and nostalgic..
Val, I will be thinking of you! Sounds like a too busy week, so I will send you some positive vibes and energy your way!! I pray things go well!! You are amazing!
Have a good rest of the week end!! ...Jan1 -

Hi
I'm back home from walking and I found a Quarter while I was walking today. The Temperature out the door was 51 degrees. There is light rain in the forecast for Midday, Oh well.
No free ham yet, for some reason they have not had them at the Grocery Store. We tried Yesterday Morning and the only ones in stock were the Spiral Cut which my brother does not want. According to the Butcher they should have come in on the Afternoon truck so my Brother plans to go today despite being there yesterday
He is afraid that someone might be able to get one based on the money spent to earn it. Last year that caused some headaches and eventually we did get one, OTOH that means someone that did not earn it also got a free ham

I have to agree with your conclusions about entitlement and that the terrorists only pretend to be interested in becoming a citizen. Germany is paying the price for Angela Merkel having been elected and pushing her agenda IMO.
Thanks, The warmer weather seems to be bringing out the money
Good Luck, I have to wonder which version of Weight Watchers ? They seem to keep changing it.The Watcher movie I remember is the one with Corey Haim.
