Fuzzy's Romp Room

((( Veggy))). I feel your frustration!!!



Well they are letting me go home from rehab tomorrow... I will continue to exercise and heal. When I am healed I will come back here again for phase 2 which is to get a prosthesis and learn how to walk with it... There is a lot of work that goes along with it too...



Cindy

Geesh veg - you are on a rough ride!  As for the liver - yeah, I'm done with that.

SAS. I am home and hope I sleep real good in my bed... I have home health services coming. Visiting Nurse will come everyday to change the bandage etc. I will have OTand PT coming in too. Not sure what home health aide does? I also have exercises from rehab that I have to keep doing.



Cindy

Thanks SAS.... Oh ok. I know the OT will help with showers but my husband will be here to make sure I get in and out safely of the shower. He is retired so he does the cooking, laundry, etc. he has done this since when I was diagnosed with B/C... I had gotten back to doing some of the things so he wouldn't have to do it all and now we are back to where we were a year and a half ago!!! Luckily he does not mind doing these things. The only thing he does not like doing is grocery shopping..... I will be careful and as safe as I can be.....

There is too much crap that needs to be done in this house. Grumpety grump grump. I have been slowly spackling the kitchen walls, where removing the wallpaper also removed some of the drywall. Also there are cracks in various places that need to be attended to. So, I did some and then decided to sand that part down. What a mess! And all that dust cannot be good for the birds. So I stopped that and vacuumed it up as best I could. Then I went out and bought a wet sanding sponge. In the meantime I took the curtains down and started caulking holes where previous brackets and such had been attached. In the process I noticed that the vinyl/metal trim or whatever it is was really looking crappy and very dirty. I tried scrubbing it, but it became apparent it needed painting. So I taped around where I didn't want the paint to go and then I spray painted a nice bright white on that trim. It looks nice but the odor caused me to be very concerned about the birds. I did move them out of the kitchen, but still the smell was strong in the other room. So I had to cover them up and open up windows and doors. It's a little chilly out there but not so bad as to cause the heat to come on. Hopefully I did not hurt the birds.

Tomorrow I will wash the windows and put the curtain back up. Any further sanding will be done with the wet sander -- except for that crack that I used caulk in. However, that should not produce much dust. I bought a can of ceiling paint, so I will be ready to roll with that when I finish the spackling. Then I need to go to a specialty paint store where they can add a mold inhibitor to the paint. That will just be a coat of white. I'm still deciding on color, but I need to lose this slum look.

Well, that was my day. I took a nap and now I am back in bed hoping to be able to sleep. I took 2 xanax earlier to be able to nap. That was around 5 pm to 7:30 pm. Now I should not take xanax, but damnit, I want to sleep. I have been in a pretty icky mood today. I don't want to continue it throughout the night. Know what I mean?

Dunes you need your rest Sleep well you worked so hard.

Really hate running in and skipping the four pages I missed this week.  But I will be back a bit this weekend,  been working all week and sleeping betwween bcz got sick.

But no time, waking Hubby to go for breakie and bank. Maybe auction? Home to garden.  Missed you guys, I call this at Fuzzy's Romp Room my support group.  A bunch of conventional and alternatives mulling together, getting through it with open minds, a sense of humor, a sense of giving, an understanding of how to allow people to be where they are in their life and bc crap.  Cool to have you.  I need you.

Sassy - did see you post back there, my dog is not even that big, BearBear was though.  Oh yes, Lacey just loves to groom fur, she used to groom Joseph too, he would sit there nd take it, she would get a pile of fluffy down undercoat and snuggle onto it at the crook of his elbow.  She would scoop it up and take it to her den for Blossom too.  She wants Danny Boy to sit down and take it like a dog, she wants some fluff for winter.  She will not be deterred.  hahaha

Gotta go!

LOVEEssa

To all OCD means Obesseive Complusive Disorder---classic example was Felix Unger from the Odd Couple. He almost made it seem normal. He was my hero.LOL

Flower- Hello wish i hadn't left the computer so quick. Your memory amazes me.  Gonna call sassy

Essa, Once as young ones walking in the backwood, Greg saw something moving and decided to chase it. I caught a white strip by the moonlight and  yelled "stop" He did--then it came into full moonlight--a skunk. A lesson grasshopper, all in the night may not be good to follow.

How did you come to bringing skunks into the home? I would love to hear the beginning.

Fuzzy----------they are TOTALLY INSANE TO TRY 100 CC------50CC  NO MORE THAN 10-14 DAYS APART- -------TELL THAT DOC THAT YOU GET TO INJECT HIS BALLS WITH THE SAME AMOUNT -------I'M PISSED-----HE IS TOTALLY NONCOGNISANT OF WHAT THE PAIN OF EXPANDER IS DOING TO THE PECTORAL MUSCLE---------whew---Damn docs------ Hmm Couldn't tell I had an an opinion on the topic.

Sassy we were doing wildlife rebab, mostly birds and rabbits.  We found an orphaned kit in field and daughter is more persistent than I ever was so we had a skunk to rehab but they imprint more than any animal, and he got pneumonia which would have reoccurred and killed him so DNR liscensed him to us.... our Sequoia (little giant) which we nicknamed Puha (Hopi for skunk, they considered the skunk the fire carrier) and we also called him Pooh after Winnie cuz he got so plush.   I am a storyteller, so after adding Jeronimo - we adopted all domestic rescues after Pooh - I wrote a book of 33 stories about the first two.  Was the best fun, just pumping out those stories. 

Fuzzy, cannot imagine but I feel for you.  So glad you stopped them, so many would just try to belive they are doing the right thing but they just don't tooooooooooooooo friggin often as we are always finding out.  You can poop in the bed, we don't mind.

Hubby just brushed and bathed Danny Boy, I am to do nails, ears and the dry fluffy brush out in evening.  Sundays are for dogs.  Think I will bathe Lacey too but do not tell her.  hehehe  She hates when I take her to sink and dunk her but she loves the warm water.  When we bathed Baby (I think one of longest skunks ever born) we had to wear heavy leather fire burning gloves, he would glare up at us and chew on those gloves but never bit us.  The one we thought would tear us up was Sagie but he loved to be bathed by me, suprised me.

Nancy, is a good day for pet stories, always makes people think what they love / loved best.  Good thoughts.

LOVEEssa - this is Sequoia when he was a baby kit, sleeping in my wool hat.  He also used to sleep inside the fluufy stuffed raccoon puppet.
