Outside my window61, clear and cooling

I am thinking I need to get my nails done.

I am thankful for ceiling fans

From the learning rooms …  Monday I start 6 months of school. 4 days a week, 5 hours a day.

I can't believe. . . February is nearly over

From the kitchen . . . Waiting on some Amazon orders

I am wearing  jammers

I am creating . . .drinking my mandarin orange water

I am going     to go shopping with my mom tomorrow.       

I am reading. . . Stars of Fortune, Book 1 of the Guardian Trilogy by Nora Roberts

I am hoping that someday all the rats will find new homes.

I am hearing ancient aliens in the living room

Around the house2 dogs, husband and son

One of my favorite thingsclean jammers

A few plans for the rest of the week
1.  Church on Sunday
2.  School on Monday
3.  Hoping that I can prep some slow cooker meals.

Here is a picture for thought I am sharing:

Dog knows that Outlander is coming in April. 



My name in Gallifreyan.

The next 6 months



First off the finale for the X-Files was depressing and way too many ends left dangling, like some of my sentences. 

I start school the 29th of Feb. I will be going for 6 months, 4 hours a day 4 days a week and learn office management. The Department of Labor has determined that I am capable of working once I finish relearning all the stuff that I have forgotten, i.e. typing, printing from a computer, graphics, and all those things. 

Amazing that I can write a blog and do those things. But I will admit that I suck at excel, it's been since 1998 and things have changed. Outlook, I never used, have no idea what Access is, and of course,our blessed Quicken. 

Then I get to learn how to send faxes, use printers, adding machines and all kinds of other office machines. The reason I have arthritis is that I used my right hand to run an adding machine for 20 years. 

I'll keep up a running commentary on the wisdom of the DOL/OWCP in putting a 63-year-old woman back in the workforce. Especially one who's injury is on her dominant side, repetitive motion anyone?

Angio was ok

Angio was ok so doctors are stumped. I was a wibbly wobbly gal when I got home. Fentanyl, Versed and morphine tend to do that.  Am still having some dull pain from the incision. Changed the bandage last night.

Life goes on.

Medical Update

So the little cough that could, the heaviness in my sternum area, fatigue and my shortness of breath did add up to something according to my cardiologist.

(Right now I'm waiting on the X-Files)

So the first week of February I am going to have an angiogram which will probably turn into an angioplasty. I have to be there at 0600 and I have no idea when I will go home. Could be 4 or 8 hours or I may get to stay the night. Depends on what goes on and how long it takes. I am very nervous about this and am pretty worried. 


So I will update after the procedure as soon as I feel up to it.

Peace,

the bunny

Never Fear

I'm still here.

Mulling my future and wondering if I'll ever understand the thinking of the Department of Labor.

Shill MD's who make $1000 saying things they never examined you for. DOL wanting to clear their books. Sending me back to work somewhere and expecting me through the counseling service to apply for jobs at 10$ an hour. The minimum wage? At my age? SMH.


Rain and thunder and lightning. Cold and damp. Scared dogs.


Peace.

I am going   listening to the 6PM news

I am reading. . . The Man in the High Castle

I am hoping all the critters disappear since the trees are gone.

I am hearing tv and video games

Around the house2 dogs, husband and son
