Tempestuous Tuesday

I certainly was not going to use a graphic that truly reflects the weather - awful.  No, something to brighten the day was called for.

I went to the doctor's this morning.  Getting out of the car we were nearly blown off our feet and we were also soaked by the time we walked around to the entrance.  Luckily I did not have to wait more than five minutes before I was called in to see him.

He is such a nice man, does not rush you, listens to all you have to say.  He examined me once again and has given me an ointment to use and also some oral medication - another couple of pharmaceutical products to add to my ever growing list! 

My stomach bug is a lot better but my stomach is still very tender so I am hoping that the oral medication does not set it going again.

I have to see him again in nine days time.  If there is little or no improvement after this round of treatment then he says he will refer me on to a specialist.  You can imagine how I felt when he said that!  I had hoped I was done with hospitals until April.  He could see I was upset by his remark and he understands perfectly.  He himself said I have been through so much in the last nine months that he can understand why I do not want to face anything more.  I did get a bit weepy and he was concerned because he said he missed seeing my "lovely smile" but he told me not to be too hard on myself.  I have had much to face and my resistance is low and fear haunts me at times.

I did come out feeling more re-assured but I can only hope that this treatment works and that a referral will not be necessary.  Those of you that believe and pray, please pray for me that this will work, I have had enough believe me.  I know you will all keep me in your thoughts during the next few days.  I want to come home in nine days time with NO referral if that is God's will.

Anyway, enoughof my moaning.  No good worrying, that will not help in any way.

We went for a short drive after we left the doctors.  Called in at the cemetery.  Lucky we did, all the flowers had been blown off my parents' resting place and Mike was able to rescue them and put them firmly back.

When we got home we happened to open our car doors at the same time, a gale of wind blew through our vehicle blowing my prescription down the road and Mike had to sprint after it!!

It is so dark we have the lights on, not good when the utility companies have just put all their prices up.  Roll on Spring.

Daniel started back at pre-school today.  He only has a dressing on now in case another child accidentally knocks him but usually he does without them.

Two more mice added to Leo's headcount.  Rescued unharmed and returned to the wild.  I cannot help but think he keeps catching the same ones , you would think they would have the sense to move on to somewhere safer.

Not much else to write about at this time but I will leave you with something a little more lighthearted.

Mujibar was trying to get a job in India.

The Personnel Manager said "Mujibar, you have passed all the tests except for one.  Unless you pass it you cannot qualify for this job."

Mujibar said "I am ready."

The Manager said "You must make up a sentence using the words yellow, pink and green."

Mujibar thought for a few minutes and said "Mister Manager, I am ready."

The Manager told him to go ahead.

Mujibar said, "The telephone he go green-green, green-green, green-green and I pink it up and say "yellow", this is Mujibar."

Mujibar now works at the call centre.

No doubt you have spoken to him.  I know I have.  

I hope that made you smile!

Wish me luck with my treatment, let us hope it does the trick.

Have a good week my dear friends and readers
