Very Happy I've got to have surgery on a lump removal and also got put on high blood pressure medicine. I'm not doing so hot this week. I have a monster living next door to me and the owner of the complex is retaliating, and the fight with in-laws. I've felt like I over cicuitied some these past 2 days but I'll make it cause I'm a survivor.

Why is it that life can be fine then a whole bunch of things come along together to disturb the peace. I have now doubt things will be looking up soon but in the meantime the (mock) Latin phrase sums it up for me "Illegitimi non carborundum" (can't write the translation here Wink )

Best wishes

Nic

Yep, keep going!! Like Nic said...above...translated..."don't let the ***s grind you down"! Wink

Wearing down...get some rest, and stand straight, head up, and do something nice for yourself.

Sorry to hear about the lump, and the blood pressure meds. No doubt, part of the hypertension is due from the extreme stress of life right now for you. {{{{{Barb}}}}} Maybe just meeting up with Leona this weekend will be a nice break and be refreshing for you. Definitely let us know how it goes with the lump. Hoping it's nothing of a serious nature.

Love and Hugs Barb!!

Very Happy Thank you all. I'm going to do some walking today as it is not raining yet. A neighbor asked me over for a some drinks last night but I declined but I wasn't not feeling up to par. Today will be different cause I'm going to walk, eat good, and try to do more good things for myself.

Very Happy Thank you all,

I had a hectic day today but at least I'm getting use to the blood pressure medicine. My Bp seems to be getting higher each night though. I gave a neighbor money yesterday and today to take her dog to the vet to only find out today she was drinking. So I got upset that she has money for booze but not her dog. Then I get mad at the doctor I have an appointment with tomorrow for their shoddy practices. I've just about had it with these people around here at times. It would be nice to move some where nice for a change but I suppose everywhere will have something wrong. I've just decided tonight to chill out and say for just now I'm going to be calm cool and collect. I'll worry about tomorrow when it gets here.

Very Happy Thank you Kay,

My neighbor's dog is feeling lots better today so I feel a lot better. My blood pressure is higher tonight than it has been since I've been logging it. I feel better mentally though so I don't know why my Bp is up. I will let you know how my surgery goes when I get it set up.
