Another Week is up


This has been another busy week again. I know I haven’t written much in the last couple of day and that includes pen pal letters that I am still working on for Donna and Diane. I mean i usually do a midweek reflection and the Thankful Thursday or any of the other starter discussions.


Work was short this week as I took Monday off because there was a lack of Oxygen cylinders. Tuesday was very busy between opening, sorting, and delivering the mail. I spent a lot of time on the readdress mail too. The Week ended with the discovery of body parts in abandoned Body that once housed the Salvation army organization. The building was across the street from my office. So local media was literally parked outside for two days all day. A few of my co-workers were out front and managed to get on TV and some were trying to avoid it. LOL.


I am still trying to get used to the oxygen. I met with the Respiratory Therapist from the Medical Equipment mid week to see if I can be qualified (???) to use the portable oxygen compressor. Apparently you have to maintain a certain level of oxygen to be able to use it and so I did and I should be getting it before Wednesday. OH they didn’t have any in stock. So I have to continue with the cylinders. I have seen what I will be getting and it's a good size. I still will have the feeling of being tethered to something or somewhere. i am going to look into getting a pulse oximeter. Both JIm and Liz think it's a good thing to have to monitor the levels of Oxygen. I am going to get a prescription for it from Rosenberg if I can today.


I am also filling out an application for the handicap parking tag. Liz is urging to me getting one and others have agreed. I am not sure I will get it (I really don’t want one) but we will see what happens. I am also waiting on FMLA extension papers.


My Brother is coming up tomorrow night so that he can be with me for the CT-SCan and the Dr. Appointment for Monday. He also encouraged me to take the day off as well. I get the feeling he doesn’t want me to get the lung biopsy (and neither does Liz). He is afraid it could be dangerous for it.


I am going to be playing Mexican Train with my friends tomorrow afternoon. We are going to have pizza for lunch/supper. I think they are going to be worried about the oxygen and my health. I hope we discuss Deb’s and Stan’s upcoming nuptials (April 2016).


Well I am going to write some letters and start the rest of my day.


Have a great one...
