thankyou 
i'm home now. haven't had a breathing treatment or drink of water since noon and no food as of yet and it's almost 6 pm. i got there at like 1:30ish and was walking out at 5pm. i have some meds to take for a week and then a follow up with my pcp. i called in today and got a note for tomorrow. that way i can get some rest. i'll go back friday and i think it's my weekend off. so yay rest! i will order groceries saturday and just go pick them up. my IV stick didn't wanna stop bleeding at first. she had to change the gauze 3 times before i felt safe leaving. lol! i got my favorite doctor in the ER too.

I had a free trial of Hulu. No big deal; not worth paying for it. Most of streaming services movies are old enough to vote. For anything recent, they was you to pay extra. Greed.
Cable and network are even worse.
I have the free version of Peacock (ads) and have been enjoying old epi's of Monk, which I always got a kick out of.
i got a subscription from hulu for the live tv cuz there was some stuff i wanted to have access to. it's worth it for me but the selections are a bit lacking. i found a show called Nine Perfect Strangers. So far it's pretty good. I don't know if Peacock will run on Chrome.

ok i'll look into that. i don't like thrillers and all the TVMA stuff. i'm more of a pg-13 girl myself.
Then you will probably want to skip Under the Banner of Heaven then. It is very good though if you enjoy crime/thriller shows. I hope you are able to get some rest tonight.
ty. i hope so too. the neighbor lady is gonna be mad but, the smoke alarm in the basement hall was beeping and i tried to put a new one in and it was still beeping. wouldn't quit so i pulled it out. i'm sick and i'm not listening to that all night. lol! i'll keep looking for programs on hulu. i'll find something eventually. they surely add new things occassionally.
ok i'll do a search for it and see what pops up. ty!
as this world gets crazier and scarier and stranger, do you feel the need to try to live in peace with others and love others as best you can? it's something that has been on my heart for a bit now. there is just too much hatred in this life. it makes me sad. i don't understand it. i wish there was something to stop it from happening. maybe someday i will get the answers i need for that. have a good night everyone. *warm hugs*
Feeling better this morning. Heart spent the remainder of the day yesterday galloping like a team of wild horses. It was both scary and awful at the same time. I tried relaxing by watching tv like I normally would but that just seemed to make matters worse. Tried watching my friends game stream. Still worse. Tried listening to soothing music and even that was bothersome. I finally shut off all the noise and went to bed. I can understand why they prefer it to be quiet in the ICUs. Noise is a source of stress when your heart is being fickle.
Things with my lungs were getting so bad I finally started shutting myself in the rooms and pulling my mask down to clean. Not in the isolation ones though. I think closing the door might keep the noise level down in the hall for other patients cuz sometimes that cleaning is kinda noisy. Plus when they call on the Vocera it's easier if it's not heard by everyone. Sometimes they have things to tell us that they don't want being overheard. Part of the whole HIPAA thing.
I started watching that Picket Fences show @MarkinPhx & I might like that. Last night I wasn't feeling well enough to watch it like I wanted to.
Hope everyone has a good day!

We are, too. If any of us need that, we need to check first to see if we will have internet access throughout!i'm glad i'm not in the middle of having open heart surgery.
good morning. *glances at clock* it is still morning here.before i take my fluid pill i gotta make a run to the supermarket. since my little episode and my trip to the ER i don't feel like eating much or anything heavy. plus i'm gonna get some decaf stuff to start replacing my caffeinated stuff. then i just have plans to rest.
i have my follow up with my pcp on wed. morning. i will talk to him about getting the treatment i need for my sleep apnea and discuss my concern with exercising right now and when it might be safe.
anywho...cya all later.
made it home from the store. deciding what to eat.
it's interesting because after all this time the neighbor lady and i are finally at a place where we're getting along. *arches brow* i think it's because i don't have all that stress and anxiety that i had with my other job. plus our hours are more in sync since i changed jobs. oh well. i'll take it. she asked me today if she buys the cat food if i'll feed the stray while she's gone in sept. i told her i would.
i'm having tuna salad on ritz toasted chips. pretty yummy. might have an apple after. then maybe a nap. i'm kinda sleepy.

i'd like to. i put a new one in but couldn't get the bloody thing to quit beeping. i pushed the button to hush it but it still kept beeping. i would think with a fresh battery it would stop that infernal beeping. i can't have my smoke alarm in the apt going either because every time i cook it sets it off and there's only steam in the air from boiling water. i don't know if you have to hold the thing to test it for it to quit beeping once a new battery is in but i was sick that night and i wasn't about to listen to that beep all night.
so not at the moment Blessed. ty for asking.i just took the battery out. probably need new detectors but that's on the landlord.That particular tone of beeping is excruciating, too. I don't know what to suggest, when they do that, other than, that I do anything to get it to stop.
