The pink is my fav but like all the colors.

Sheba, Cheers to a better year 2024 for you! It’s right around the corner and will be here soon.
Awesome set and perfect season to wear it.
The sun finally came out here. Ran a few errands and then hiked. One rattler on the path, that makes 2 for the week. My new announcement system is to shake a plastic container of sugar free mentos. It works so well. The bunnies hear me coming too. There are quite a few and their behavior is interesting. They hear me and then jet out where I am walking to cross the path, why?
I think they are babies, and I am happy to see them.
Have a good evening!

Oodie, sounds like your hubs is getting some good food and has some attentive professionals around him.
A few years ago I took a First Aid class, and she covered choking. She said her friend choked on a piece of Steak at a restaurant and she had to use the Heimlich maneuver on her.
Crazy, and the woman was early 30’s, Reminds me maybe I should take another class soon.

I must tell you that hubby’s pizza was huge. I arrived at the hospital around 4:15. A little later than I anticipated because of a sulfite attack. Actually, I almost didn’t make it and I had contacted the nurse’s station to give them a high sign. This was all due to a garden salad I ordered along with a small pizza. I should have known better since the pizza was not the usual way this restaurant makes them and their salad. I am still trying to figure that one out.

Hubby was asleep when I got there. He had eaten a full breakfast and the lunch I mentioned was still on his table fully covered. I have to admit that his pizza looked better than the one I ordered last night. I found out that he had had a fitful night. I sort of woke him up to eat his lunch . He tried the pizza and it was still warm. The food here is nothing like what he gets at the rehab. He is enjoying every morsel. It’s the hospital where I cannot bring any food for the patient, though, if hubby wasn’t eating, then that may be necessary. I can still supplement at the rehab. I tasted the meat after cutting it up into small pieces. I was a bit chewy but very tasty. The spices they used made the meal quite palatable. He had a coughing fit and had to stop eating altogether. The nurse said she would tell the night nurses to try to bring him some ice cream later. That certainly will help soothe the area. However, hubby says he doesn’t have pain when swallowing. Then maybe it’s the cough that is left over from the pneumonia. After I leave, he will have a sponge bath and change of the hospital nighty along with clean linens and blankets. He will also get a warm blanket. The one thing I am concerned with is his blood pressure which was around 96 97 and the other up a bit more than that. The nurse felt that it was OK since he was sleeping. He is also on oxygen. He seemed to do better with the C-pak and the nurses agreed. Some of his problem may be a sleep disorder and they will have a neurologist check him.

Tomorrow, on the way to the hospital, I will be stopping at Costco. The van needs gas. The one thing I must say is that the last couple of days hubby’s mind has been wonderful and his short term memory is getting better each day. Somehow I think that the C-pak really does help with this situation. I’m beginning to think that he may need more oxygen at night. I think while I am at Costco I will pick up something for the nurses. I have my eyes on the tiny brownies in the bakery section.

I will see how hubby is doing tomorrow before we think about Yom Kippur . I have a feeling we will miss Kol Nidre since I need to be out of the room by 7 pm. Monday the services end around 8pm/8:30pm depending upon the hour of sunset. I will play Monday by ear.

Hope you are having a great evening. Guess you walked between the raindrops with Poppy. Enjoy Autumn. My favorite happens to be winter and spring.

@oodiebom,

Good evening by the time you read this post you will be home and I hope resting.

Yom Kippur is around the corner and I hope you and your husband can share it.

Oodie I am surprised your husband is still in the hospital and that may not be to bad.
The Hospital has the labs and the staff to get to whatever the problem is. I wish his surgery
was a bit sooner but at least he is getting excellent care.

I hope he ask for double with his meals that is one way to make sure he has enough.

I would lay back tonight after a nice shower and read a good book on your Kindle or whatever
you desire. I am praying for both you and your husband.

The Summer Knows
Song by Barbra Streisand

The summer smiles, the summer knows
And unashamed, she sheds her clothes
The summer smoothes the restless sky
And lovingly she warms the sand
On which you lie
The summer knows, the summer’s wise
She sees the doubts within your eyes
And so she takes her summertime
Tells the moon to wait and the sun to linger
Twists the world ’round her summer finger
Lets you see the wonder of it all
And if you’ve learned your lesson well
There’s little more for her to tell
One last caress
It’s time to dress
For fall
And if you’ve learned your lesson well
There’s little more for her to tell
One last caress
It’s time to dress
For fall

Nights in White Satin
Song by The Moody Blues

Nights in white satin
Never reaching the end
Letters I’ve written
Never meaning to send
Beauty I’d always missed
With these eyes before
Just what the truth is
I can’t say anymore
‘Cause I love you
Yes I love you
Oh, how I love you
Gazing at people
Some hand in hand
Just what I’m going through
They can’t understand
Some try to tell me
Thoughts they cannot defend
Just what you want to be
You will be in the end
And I love you
Yes I love you
Oh, how I love you
Oh, how I love you
Nights in white satin
Never reaching the end
Letters I’ve written
Never meaning to send
Beauty I’d always missed
With these eyes before
Just what the truth is
I can’t say anymore
Yes I love you
Oh, how I love you
Oh, how I love you
Yes I love you
Yes I love you
Oh, how I love you
Oh, how I love you
Breathe deep the gathering gloom
Watch lights fade from every room
Bed sitter people look back and lament
Another days useless energy spent
Impassioned lovers wrestle as one
Lonely man cries for love and has none
New mother picks up and suckles her son
Senior citizens wish they were young
Cold hearted orb that rules the night
Removes the colors from our sight
Red is gray and yellow white
But we decide which is right
And which is an illusion

(I Love You) For Sentimental Reasons
Song by Nat King Cole

I love you
For sentimental reasons
I hope you do believe me
I’ll give you my heart
I love you
And you alone were meant for me
Please give your loving heart to me
And say we’ll never part
I think of you every morning
Dream of you every night
Darling, I’m never lonely
Whenever you are in sight
I love you
For sentimental reasons
I hope you do believe me
I’ve given you my heart
I love you
For sentimental reasons
I hope you do believe me
I’ve given you my heart

Unforgettable – Nat King Cole

Unforgettable, that’s what you are
Unforgettable, though near or far
Like a song of love that clings to me
How the thought of you does things to me
Never before has someone been more
Unforgettable in every way
And forevermore (and forevermore)
That’s how you’ll stay (that’s how you’ll stay)
That’s why, darling, it’s incredible
That someone so unforgettable
Thinks that I am unforgettable too
No, never before has someone been more
Ooh, unforgettable (unforgettable)
In every way (in every way)
And forevermore (and forevermore)
That’s how you’ll stay (that’s how you’ll stay)
That’s why, darling, it’s incredible
That someone so unforgettable
Thinks that I am unforgettable too
