Diets, Decaf & Other Dubious Deeds

Ok, bills are pd, prescriptions called in, appt made with pulmonologist, shower, some laundry and I'm getting ready to strip the bed and get some lunch. Decided I'd better do a breathing treatment first. LOL! Don't wanna pass out in the midst of making the bed.

I enjoy my days off. The solitude. The quiet (most of the time). Just being able to chillax.

 

had an interesting day on here. got some things done around the house that needed doing. we are in for temps in the mid 90s tomorrow. i'm not off now till saturday. i do need to go to the mall for some new shoes. it can't be avoided. i'm still debating on whether or not to go into the supermarket. i think for right now i will just have to make do and stick with the click-list order/pick up. i will just have to avoid getting ice cream for the time being. if i really need ice cream that badly there's a homemade shop downtown.

i've heard good things about it except that it's pricey. i'm in the grill the next 2 days and then back in the kitchen on friday.

we surpassed the 11,000 mark on covid cases the other day. 245 dead. almost a 1,000 hospitalized. we are going into phase out here on monday the 22nd. i suspect it won't be long till all hell breaks loose with this virus. hell right now they aren't even trying to adhere to the recommendations. they're selfishly doing what they want.

i guess there was a place where one woman complained about people not wearing their masks and a gal got mad and coughed on her a she left the store. other places the people with masks are being harassed in the stores for wearing them.

if this thing is based on a time factor...i give it enough time all day at work in a room full of people. why add to that by going into the store if i don't need to? i'm gonna wait it out. i just think it's best this way.

well, i'm gonna go pop over to another site before bed. good night all.
 
Dear diary...I hate mornings.

Got my coffee. Looking for something to amuse you. Let's see here...
Ok...try this...
14 facts about the Taj Mahal

I've been continuing to do what I can to stay safe. I still worry about getting this dumb virus. I try not to worry. I've been trying to avoid the media stuff on it. Once in a while something will cross my path. I don't normally read it unless it's new news to me. Try to take it with a grain of salt cuz it could be the exact opposite the next day or in a week.


I have an appt set for the 13th of July to go see the pulmonologist. I have to go in and fill out a request sheet to get the day off. Not sure what all they will do with me at this point.

What I don't understand is all our docs are in the same building. Yet each time you go see a new one they can't share the medical file info. Instead they send you a book of paperwork to fill out even though all this crap is on file in an office on another floor. Seriously? 😁

Have a great day. If not, have some ice cream.
 

Morning. Gotta pop into work early today to pick up my meds. Hopefully they're ready. It's been 2 days. I call ahead and then give them a day to contact the docs office for refills and then go in the next day. I'm gonna be upset if I hafta make a second trip again. I'm gonna call and make sure it came in first. The docs office is busy but, I need my medications. You get 3 mo of refills on some and the others are mo by mo. PITA. Gonna be busy and hot again. Later!

Update: Only one trip to the pharmacy today. Yay. So, on that note, I will see you lovely people later.

Morning.

Had some storms last night. Rained off and on all night. Supposed to be cooler today @ 76°. That would be nice.

I'm cooking tonight. It's spaghetti night again at the inn. Whoopteedo. Last Friday nobody wanted their spaghetti. I don't make the sauce so I don't know if that's what the issue was or if they just weren't in the mood for it. Sometimes it happens. I think a lot of the complaints are because the stuff can't have salt and pepper like we normally have at a table. And some folks are too lazy to open the little packets we send. Oh well. People are strange.

Off the weekend with no real plans except for a date with my laundry.

Gosh, Marci I hope you keep safe in that hospital! Maybe you've built immunities already. I hope so. I worry about you.
 
I worry too @RadishRose. Thanks. I doubt I've built any antibodies but since I know nothing about them, I'd have no idea. Last weekend at work I finally had to take my mask off for a bit. It's not mandatory here unless we are out front with customers. I went for a couple hrs without it because I was struggling so bad to breathe that I felt like I was gonna pass out. I didn't wanna leave them with no cook.
 
Since they started lifting restrictions here we already have 7 new cases of COVID from the past 2 days in the city I live in. The f*****s won't wear their masks. ~SMH~

12,059 cases and 254 deaths statewide
 
Our county and a neighboring county have outbreaks from bars. No surprise there. God forbid a Kansan should drink at home.

"In New Delhi, hospitals have been running out of beds, and some patients have been turned away for lack of space.

“On 1 June, we downloaded the report which said that our father-in-law was COVID positive. That’s when our ordeal began,” Mandeep Singh wrote in HuffPost India.

“Though they had promised, Ganga Ram Hospital did not contact us. When we tried calling them to figure what we should do next, no one answered those calls.

“Frustrated, we started reaching out to the other hospitals we knew were admitting COVID patients. We called Max, Apollo, AIIMS, Safdurjung — all the hospitals directed us not to come as they did not have beds.”

Patients have been left unattended in corridors of government-run hospitals. Local media reports of dead bodies in a hospital lobby prompted the Supreme Court to order the state administration to get its act together."

In the event that someone needs me or wishes to chat with me...I'm reading the Huffington Post. I'll peek in from time to time but, I'm not getting my hopes up.
