Tale of two coons

Today was one of those hmmm I feel good, stand up, walk around....nope I don't feel good. I hate these kind of days. I got sick twice, every time that happens I think oh no there goes another pound. Not only that but I threw my hiv meds. So after a while I made some tea and layed down.
I was sound asleep when I was awaken by some guy on a ladder at my window. The dog didn't flinch. So I throw on some clothes to see what he was doing. I live on the second floor so this doesn't happen much. I though I was in a dream or a fog or something. It was the animal rescue people. I called them because we have a couple (they must be a couple)of raccoons who try and kill each other every night, one holding the other off the side of the building.
Anyway nothing he could do. Thinks the coons are just stressed they have babies and don't seem to agree on their up bringing technics.

Wow another week has passed..

My injections went well except for the procrit. I broke 2 needles trying to get it in my bony stomach. Anyway it's Saturday, the temp outside is 9 degrees . Fine with me I have interferon fog and nausea so I am taking a hot bath, taking the dog for a long cold walk, then returning to bed. I have a dinner tonight so I need to get some rest. Hope everyone is well and has a great weekend ..

Sunday, I remember it as a day of rest.

I certainly did that! I got up at at 1:00pm, that's not sleep, that is drug fog. Like my blog buddy says brain fog. Anyway it was a good day I guess. I saw my very good friend she came just to see me ( 1:30pm) She is one of those people that has her glass half full and will fill it if it gets too low. Very positive to be around.
That was enjoyable from what I remember LOL . I have an appointment at 7:40 am tomorrow that should be interesting, it's a CAT scan , and the doctor will have been on all night. I will just have to be my one of a kind self.

Happy Friday everyone !!!!

Well it's my day to inject the drugs that will ultimately give me many more years on this earth. I have so much more to do and I will. I have lost 23 pounds....some would be delighted at that fact, actually I would, too, normally, but when you sit down and feel the bones on your ass....well, I guess I do need to gain some more weight. I have never been weight obsessed like most Americans but when people you don't even know ?( read last post) Anyway I am in a great space and feeling OK . I got up and did some basic yoga that helps . Now I am going to raid the kitchen for fattening food or my sister has threatened to come and get me ....

Remember drink lots of water eat eat eat .
Most of all protect yourself use condoms , and don't share dirty needles !
This is the beloved life we are given respect it , enjoy it , treasure it .

Blessed be everyone enjoy your weekend.

This and that and all the rest

Wow Thursday, already hasn't by far been a bad week . I am tired and nauseous the usual except I am getting closer to the end .
One thing that blew my mind this week , I was in the store doing some shopping ( what else do you do ?) and over heard a woman say to her Friend , he must have cancer he has that look. AHHHHHHHH I was so pissed I didn't know what to do. Yes I kept my mouth shut although I wanted to scream at them something obscene. If I did that I know I would have let them suck my energy.
Can't people stop being so judgemental. We are all human and everyone of us has a story, has been through something that changes our lives forever . Be nice, Be kind .

Blessed be.....Be nice to people , for goodness sakes we all share this one Earth and lifetime lets all stand together.

All good things ,come with a twist.. Universe


Well the usual headaches , ice packs, sore tummy .It lasted only in the morning the afternoon was
really good I got a burst of energy , the Procrit seems to help alot. Took Mr P for a long walk, cleaned my house. My roommate is away so I can clean however long I want . She is a total hippy in every respect but a great friend .
She has been my friend for over 20 years , and would do anything for me .
The only problem being is she doesn't get this treatment at all , she figures if I can get a glass of water I am not sick. Sometimes it makes me angry with all the information out there why not find out what your friend is going through....Ignorance is bliss. Denial will keep you safe from yourself.

Blessed Be..

yep its Friday


I am all done with my injections......tonight. I am so anal everything has to be right . I had to make sure my laundry was done . I went to the store to get food and ( sweets) and tea. Then I take my meds and I am set. Better days to come !
So if I am keeping track which I actually tried not to
I figure I will be really happy if they just say "hey dude your done that's it " Be great to have more of a social life , visit my friends from out of town. Oh well down the road. But quietly I scream I am half way through !

Blessed Be!

It's been a strange week.....

A good strange as far as our country goes. But as for me, Mon - Tues were good days. I felt semi-normal, Wednesday I couldn't stay awake, my poor landlord was cleaning the carpets that day. I just told her my room is fine, I am sick so don't bother. She is so awesome, of course she let me sleep and made me some tea. I got up around 7pm to tell my roommate please walk the dog, ate something and was back in bed. I woke up today feeling, fatigued, nauseous, my liver is sore,..blah blah blah .
I get so tired of complaining. I know I should be lucky I am breathing, feeling, and touching life, but believe me, whom ever has gone through this or is going through it knows it feels good to b@#$% sometimes.
Anyway bless this nation as we may now have a shot at being what we once were. But its not going to take just a new president , its going to take us all together to make a difference..

Brightest Blessings USA!!!!

click my heels and I am using a mac..

But I open my eyes and the crooked E is staring back at me.....oh well.
I think I must have done something wrong when injecting my procrit cause I have had such a stomach ache since doing it. I have the normal pegasis hangover, nothing a 10 minute stand on my head and an ice pack won't make go away. As for the stomach ache eat, eat, eat whatever I want hmmmm.

Well people time for us to open our eyes Tuesday everything changes , its our decision whether we put up with years of more lies and stupidity or go for the change and make America what it was . Blessed be

GO VOTE!!
