It was nice to have a cup of coffee today. Most days I feel cold, and today is a bad one for that. I am freezing today. I got the heat up to 80 F and I am cold A.F. But this is nothing new for me at all. Also nothing new is that I've been having panic attacks all day long. They tend to last about 20 or 30 minutes, but I get them every hour or 2. But coffee is a great pleasure and I'm grateful it does not trigger my Fibromyalgia. I also don't tend to be kept awake by it. It doesn't tend to give me that amped up and awake feeling most people get from it. In fact I can drink a cup, and go to bed 30 minutes later and sleep as well as I ever do. That being said, I've had insomnia since I was 10 years old (48 years of it to date). It's a bother and I can go several days with almost no sleep at all. It really gets my brain fogged out though, not to mention any body or joint pain is increased by lack of sleep. Lentil and veggie soup was on the menu today. It's what

Got a new doctor just in time. My old one is leaving Saskatchewan. This is the 3rd time in a row a doctor I had moved out of province after the 1 year time frame needed to keep the money given them to move here by the Saskatchewan Government. Got to wonder how many of them only came here to get practical experience, and bank the government money, then move to a bigger city to earn more money. I find this reprehensible, but it seems to be happening - it happens just far to many times to think there is another explanation. All new doctors, fresh out of school, and all stay just long enough to be able to keep the money. I seriously hope this new doctor stays here. It is hard A.F. to find a doctor here as we are very short on them in Saskatchewan. Moose Jaw in particular seem to be always short of doctors and a heck of a lot of people never find one, and end up going to the ER, and clogging it, so the wait times are extremely long when someone actually needs the ER, because most of the peo

Well, here I am 58 years old. 2 years away from being 60. I did not think I was going to make it much past 40 to be honest. My health has been trashed for years now after all. Then when I got diagnosed with heart failure, I figured I'd be gone soon. But life is strange some times. A miracle medication helped stop the progression of the heart failure and saved my life. I was probably going to be dead in 2 years if it was not for Entresto. I don't expect to be alive at 70 to be honest, and if I still am, I'm going to be in a hell of a bad state of being. My body is degenerating on me and in the last years it's gotten much worse. To be honest, being on the SAID program (Saskatchewan disability), and having to switch to the Old Age Security, and Guaranteed Income Supplement for seniors, and having to reapply for supplemental medical coverage provincially - is going to be a hell of a lot of a bother. This happens a year before I turn 65. A tome of paper work, and then hope t

Somehow I look 10 years older than I did at the start of this year. It's been the worst year of my life so far, so maybe that is the thing causing it. But dang, I do look older all the sudden. I have lost 44 LBS in this time though.

Went out on the 14th for my birthday lunch with friends. It was very enjoyable. I got the Jambalaya pasta and a Doctor Pepper (free refills so I had 3). Because I was celebrating my birthday, I got an ice cream sandwich for free and the "birthday song" sang to me. In the photo you see what my friends got me - Kicking Horse 454 Coffee and Double Chocolate TimTams, and a card. Earlier I posted a review of cookies I was sent by another friend. I also got some silverware. This is literally the first time in my life I have new silverware. I had been using very old ones for many years - at home with my parents, they had an even older set. I also never owned a salad fork LOL. There was no tea spoons with it, so I have older tea spoons still. I tried to look for just tea spoons, but they came in large numbers and I don't need 60 of them, I just want 4. I also got a total of $140 gifted to me by several nice people. I got some stuff I need and a toy I wanted (personal kind of toy)
