But it's hard to focus on The Burrow when I'm just feeling sad and overwhelmed and angry at the world.
FFOTUS doesn't think Stephen A Smith has the brainpower to be President. Rolling Stone attibutes this to racism. I think it's a doddering old man's go to response when he has no idea what he's talking about. Whether the Orange Menace's presence at the 3rd game of the NBA Finals caused the Knicks to lose is debatable. The fact that he fell asleep during the game is just unacceptable.
TBG's medical regime creates unbelievable tiredness and dizziness. This gets in the way of most everything he (or I or we) want to do. Part of the reason my posting has been sporadic is because nothing is happening. I don't like leaving him alone; falling is not part of the future I have planned.
It's triple digits and getting hotter here in Tucson. It was too hot to plant seeds at 9am. I tried to see The Kiss again last night (Venus and Jupiter touching in the sky.... not really, since they're zillions of miles apart, but to us here on earth it's pretty spectacular) but there were clouds in the early evening when they would have been visible. My zip code is not being kind to me.
I'll try to recover my good humor and my sanity and anything else I'm missing so that I can be back on a regular schedule once again. Thanks for your patience as my brain sorts out this new reality. It's really no fun at all.
Writing from Mumbai. My husband was once prescribed a gabapentin called pregabalin for some medical issue. The thing is I have taken it successfully for nerve pain issues, but it always made him dizzy. We reported this reaction to the attending doc and he removed it. The main pain reduced in a few days. Just wanted to let u know that everyone responds differently to such meds. Do check.
ReplyDeletewe were both in late 70's then.
ReplyDeleteI am hoping the medication is of short duration...not an addition to his regularly scheduled life.
ReplyDeleteYou forgot soccer/futbol! Well, maybe you didn't "forget" it, but the world is watching.
ReplyDeleteI did watch some of the Knicks/Spurs game last night, and all of that last quarter. I was rooting for the Spurs, but now, since they beat Oklahoma, I guess I really don't have a favorite.
Managing serious health problems, whether your own or your loved one's, is hard and no fun.
Funny, Smith was FFOTUS's favorite sportscaster until he criticized Dear Leader and then voila' "He's a low IQ individual." The usual insult for those who disagree with him. Projection at its finest. Being a caregiver is hard, I sympathize. Hang in there.
ReplyDeleteWe have been through this and it is awful. I can empathize with you and sympathize with TBG. Sending love and strength to you both. Hang in there because what else can we do?? xoxoxo
