Saturday 5/28/22

8:04am I had a lousy night. Aides put me to bed around  11:30. They got me out of bed and into my wheelchair by 4 six. Ii slept louy.vi Don t to think I slept at all because of arthritis. I’d give the pain a five on a one to five scale. I also had a few incontinence episodes. I got good care though. I rang the call light and didn’t have long to wait. Plus aides came in to check on me and change me around three.

Anyways, I was out of bed by six. Morning was not good. I was still in pain and very tired. Cold air from the a/c was blowing on me. They would not turn it off despite the fact that my cold symptoms are coming back. I had to wrap myself up in two sheets. My only solace was breakfast and hot coffee was on its way I had coffee cake, scrambled eggs and hot cereal real. Coffee was a life saver today  since it was nice and hot. I also had a glass of cold oj.

So I’m above the dirt. I don’t feel depressed this morning. I’m ju st tired. I really had it bad last night. But I toughed it out and it passed. I just feel so tired and achy.bi could use a nice long massage. People in hell want ice water.

Despite everything  I’m determined to stay in good spirits? I keep telling myself I have it pretty good. I’m in a safe bug free environment. I’m getting good care for the most part. Insurance pays for my meds. I have Internet connection. I  have plenty of books to read and all the time to read them. I get a Social Security check every month. Most of all I have a wonderful girlfriend in Chocolatechip. I have it pretty good.

Chocolatechip called before lunch.. She was doing ok. She walked about a a dream  she had. . She was in a mental hospital and not complying with her treatment plan?. Somehow she broke free and ended up in Douge’ house. He was messing with her car. That’s all she said of her dream. She also talked about this aEddie guy and how she is will cook for him once in a great while. This Eddie character is a story in itself.

I felt better after talking to her Breakfast came and we cut our conversation short.

So much for my morning so far. I’mu going to look at the paper. Bye for now.

6:32pm I have COVID. This marks the third time. I’ve been sick with this all day. cough is very bad along with runny nose and sore throat. Also felt very. Very ired despite sleeping all day in addition I feel very achy sore and weak. In short I’ve been sick as a dog.

I should be pisssed. I’m too sick and tired to be pissed.
