Diet and exercise

Since I was expelled from the Jordan Hospital Friday night I have not done any dieting or exercising. Well that isn't completely true. I did go out with Colleen on Saturday morning for coffee with Eden. After that Colleen dropped me off at Dot's house where I impatiently waited for Dot and Maureen to come home so they would allow me to lay down somewhere or Mum to come and rescue me from Dots house and her lack of a couch. When I was rescued Mum and I journeyed to Shaws where she went in and bought some groceries and I rested in the car willing for it to drive me home so me and my agonizing body could go to bed. We has meatloaf and egg noodles for dinner Saturday. I love meatloaf!

Sunday I decided since I had to go back to work Monday Penny and I would take a leisurely walk down to the shop. I truly wanted to walk slowly since my side still hurt, she wanted to run since no one takes her for walks. Okay this dog weights at least 75 pounds and I stupidly took her for a stroll. What a dumb ass I am. It took us about 15 minutes to walk what should haven taken us 7. Once we got there Penny was sent to the car while I talked to Mum. Penny likes to eat flowers, she cant be in a garden shop. After Mum and I talked and said hi to Mike I rescued Penny from the car and we slowly went home. At home we both took naps. I'm almost positive I ate on Sunday but I cant for the life of me tell you what it was.

Monday morning I woke up early. I usually have a lot to do Monday's. This Monday was slightly different. I had Torah Study at 830, a meeting at 10 with the Rabbi, an appointment with Dr R at 145 and work at 2. Let me tell you nothing went right. I overslept and missed Torah Study but made it to my meeting with the Rabbi where he gave me an old prayer book for me to read and look over for our next meeting next Monday. After that I walked across the street to the JCI to say hi to everyone there. It was barely 11am and Lacey sent me to Friendly's for ice cream. Yes I had a double thick mint chocolate milkshake for breakfast and it was lovely. Somewhere between leaving the Rabbi and visiting Lacey Dr R'S office called to cancel my appointment and reschedule for Tuesday. I then had ti ask foe a note since I was missing work for these appointments. I went to get my note and it said I did not have to go back until Wednesday and only do light duty. I was also told then stent was being removed on Wednesday and it should lessen my pain. Back home I went to make Shawn and I macaroni and hot dogs and mainline Hawaiian Punch. 

And now today Tuesday I was wide awake at 5 am and somehow forced myself back to sleep. At 8 Vanessa called apologized up and down for waking me up since she knows I don't wake up that early. Vanessa needed me to call Laurice and give her Lori's phone number since Ed was sick and couldn't come to work. So half asleep I grabbed a pen wrote Lori's home and cell numbers on my hand and called Laurice. I stayed up for a while doing some emailing and writing hoping to get a lot done. Nope it didn't happen. I fell asleep. I woke up just in time to shower, pick up my  paycheck and Colleens prescriptions, and see Dr R. Dr R, the lovely man he is, failed to  inform me how much pain I would be in after he took out the stent. I have never had a baby and I wasn't planning on having one before but just the fact the right side of my body spasmed the way it did and for as long as it did children are out. 


After reading this it shouldn't be called diet and exercise it should be called pain and agony. BUT I am still alive!
