Saturday Ramble

Hum.  I wanted to write on something this week and never go around to it.  99% of the time I never re-read what I've written..... have I written that before?  Oh well.  Of course I don't remember what it was.

Today is a blah day - I'm tired and unfocused.  So this probably will be a very dis-com-bob-u-lated post.

This week I did a lot of garden work.  Trying to get the gardens ready for when Time comes to do the one garden and the stones on the side of the house.  Decided it would be easier and better to get someone else to do the work as it's too much for me to lug wheel barrows of stone to the side of the house.  And there is so much creeping charley in the one garden that it will be easier to just shovel it out.

My chest continues to hurt when I do, basically, anything, but a lot of work hurts it.  Now too lately I've been coughing.  Not sure where that is coming from or why.

AJ got his results yesterday from the ultra sound on his good arm/shoulder.  (With his stroke his left arm is the only one he can control and work with.  The right is spastic.  For him to walk he needs his left arm to control and direct his walker.  And.....he is pretty f*ked with his left arm/shoulder.  NP asked how he is not in more pain as there is a 4.6 cm tear, his bicep is torn, and two more connective are ripped/torn too.  I believe it is that his arm is on his shoulder by one connective, muscles, nerves, veins and skin.  It's quite ripped.  NP has sent him to an orthopod.  Wonder how long that will take.  In the meantime I help do more of the things he use to do.

He will probably need surgery.  That is nervous as he basically will not be able to do anything - including walking - until his shoulder is healed.  Guess it's just a wait and see what/when/how things play out.

Saw yesterday the tall tree in the way back has carpenter ants in it.  Called Davey Tree to come.  I had been down there to clean out the raspberry bushes.  Hated to remove them but I can't deal with how much maintaining they would need.  Same with the dill and onions etc.  I've also been digging out some of the flowers as they are overgrown.  Just way too much overgrown stuff in the gardens.  As I continue I am happy with the results.  I hope I get everything done before they come - they will be also putting down mulch over all the gardens which is why I'm working as best I can at them.  Have about another week as they are to come beginning of June.

I goofed on Joan.  It wasn't last Thursday I was to talk with her - it's this coming Thursday.

I did go to Diane again for Reiki treatment.  Helpful as I was so wired and she helped calm my mind.  Was able to have a better sleep that night.  Last night I had trouble with sleep again.  It's not like I'm thinking on a lot of things, tho last night there were thoughts on that ant tree!

That's about it really.  Not much else to report.  It was the Joan thing that I ment to write on, but then couldn't... yet! ha ha ha.
