I Am Going To be Okay!
I am going to be okay. I just have gas issues. I do not have appendicitis. I just ended up having a major gas bubble and I took care of myself right. I did take it easy yesterday and a little bit today to rest my gas bubble – a very big one. I did let my kidney coordinator know what happened yesterday morning between 3 AM and 4 AM, what I did, and why I did, and I was told I made a good call and took good care of myself. My phone was an arms length away from me just in case it was not a severe gas bubble, a thermometer, and needed meds right there by me in case. I was ready to dial 911 in case I had to. I did not panic exactly but I surely did think appendicitis at first immediately.
Acknowledging Grandpa Clarence’s Birthday
Okay, I know this can be strange to some people even after a relative has passed away and is no longer with those on earth but I have been acknowledging my grandpa’s birthday for a long time now – since he had died on February 15, 2003. Even though Grandpa CVF is not alive anymore but a fond memory of a granddaughter he doted on since I was a baby he is 104 years old today – died at age 90 – a few months short of his 91st birthday, which would have been July 25th. My grandpa and I share(d) the same month for birthdays when Grandma MIJF and my brother GLK shared the same month for birthdays. I do miss my grandpa very much!
My Day
Despite the excess gas bubble issue and acknowledging my Grandpa CVF’s birthday, I do have to admit that my day has not been too bad. At first, I thought I wouldn’t go grocery shopping this morning but realized that I had something I wanted to do and I did want to get out a little bit. I wanted to go to the bank and that is exactly what I did. DB took my laundry to the laundromat today since the laundry room was being used up today. We will finish some cleaning Thursday. Woo hoo, I am going to color my hair again the reddish brown I did in March next week.
