@oodiebom,

WHAT! The head nurse said the surgery may not do him any good? WTH! Oodie I feel
if a medical surgeon gave the ok to have the surgery done that is it. I believe in first
do no harm! I don’t think a surgeon in the world would do a procedure that they know
will not work. I am stunned I am not digging Florida for the Rehab Centers.

Oodie how are you feeling I will be glad when you can go back to your normal way of life you
and your husband seem to have boundless energy. I mean three top notch homes. I admire
the fact you have traveled a great deal with your husband. I did not like the last Cruise when
you both got Covid. Oodie you both bounced back.

I will check back in tomorrow and I hope you are getting some much needed rest.

Peace Out Peeps have a great evening. 😉

Last night I had dinner of rice and meatballs with tomato sauce. Evidently that sauce was bad and so I had the worse cramps that knocked me for a loop. Called my neighbor who is a nurse and told her I just may be dialing 911. I stayed home yesterday and today. Was not able to see hubby, but now that I’m feeling better, will go tomorrow. I did contact the head nurse and he sort of hinted that the surgery will not do my hubby any good. He feels he has been on the catheter too long. I just hope he is wrong and I can tell him “I told you so..” I do know people who have used a catheter for over a year or two and were still able to have it removed. I hope the same. Surgery is less than two weeks away. Tests prior are scheduled Thanksgiving day at 7 am.. I will try to be there. I am not a morning person. Will use several alarms beginning at 5 am. Hospital is also 8 miles from portal to portal, but I expect heavy traffic for people leaving for work. If I can make it, will treat hubby to breakfast in the cafeteria. I just hope they are opened.

Good afternoon in Oz. Sunny and nice here today.🌞 Colder this weekend with rain and snow showers, yuk.❄ You said it right above, I’ll be sick of winter by Monday.

Our leaves are done also. Hubs finished this afternoon except for any that may blow in with high winds.🍁🍂 Seems like we go from doing leaves right into shoveling snow. Ran a few errands this morning. Having soup and grilled cheese sandwiches for dinner.🥣🥪

Sending warm hugs back to you and Poppy.🤗💖

It’s almost time for Thanksgiving. I hope you are feeling better. If you can please pop in to say Hi.

What a day yesterday was. The painter returned early am to put a 2nd coat on the trim. It is lovely.
Though the color was not my first choice which was the neck of the peacock, this is the turquoise of the tail. It is a rich color in that a little of teal was also included. The painter thought the neck part would be too dark. I can always add a light teal over this if hubby is so inclined.

The plumber showed and it was a four hour job from start to finish. He or someone else wll need to return to repair the faucets in shower and tub. I guess it’s an old unit that we cannot purchase any longer, so it’s something that has to be special ordered which will take about three days to receive. I will probably get a call Friday for a day next week. I just hope it doesn’t coincide with me purchasing a fresh turkey. The fresh turkey takes less time to cook. I am making one for hubby and his roommate if he so desires. The last person to knock on the door was the one who is helping me to get rid of the varmints. I gave him a check to cover half. I also learned that new and other old construction also will need to do the vapor barrier. Seems this tool keeps rodents away if the sealing is done. I had this completed about a year to a year and half ago. The work was OK, but the bottom line was they did not seal the areas which also included the vents. I had new ducts installed a week and a half ago. They also need to be sealed which wasn’t done. So, that work will need to be replaced. No wonder it took them just a little over an hour to install. I have since found a new company to take over the A/C.. My neighbor came over. She wanted me to look at her new entrance and thought it would be usable for hubby. The steps are quite wide and only 3 inches a part. Because Florida is noted for termites, he used Trex. I took a picture of the new stairs and also our trimwork.

I hope you can start your drive before any storms hit. I’m watching something in the Pacific that could mean flooding for Ca.. Not sure about Colorado. So tread carefully.

Hope you have a great day and evening.

Do What Excites You

We can all fall into the motions of life, trying something exciting can be just the spice you need.

Each human life has the potential to be dramatic, thrilling, and awe-inspiring. Our lives are, in truth, ours to design. Each day, we make choices that influence the character of our experiences, and our decisions determine whether our paths are rousing or tedious, breathtaking or tiresome. We can create an exciting life by simply doing what excites us whenever the opportunity presents itself. Your passions may ebb and flow, and what excites you one year may not excite you the next, but when you make excitement a regular part of your existence, life becomes more fun and more fulfilling.

If you are somebody that tends to live practically, excitement may overwhelm you at first. To ease the anxiety that prevents you from incorporating all that you find exciting into your life, acknowledge that you are alive right now in this time and every moment matters. When you choose to do more of what excites you, even if your choices require you to make certain sacrifices, your daily life will soon be imbued with exhilaration, pleasure, and optimistic anticipation.

To understand what excites you, you may need to observe and ponder your reaction to the activities, events, circumstances, and concepts that make up your life. What makes your pulse race, what makes you want to get out of your chair and take action? Try to avoid getting too wrapped up in life’s details; their tedium may cause you to plod through your existence unaware of prospective excitement. Once you have created a substantial list of what excites you, find ways to integrate each item into your routine. You will soon find yourself riding a wave of excitement that lifts you up and makes life truly worth living. What excites you in your life?
