That was my question too Barb. He told them he doesn't want to do it himself and that his wife would do it. I told sis to insist that he be trained too, but who knows?
Anyway since we suspect his INR was so high because he hadn't been taking the warfarin properly sis thinks it's just as well she is in charge. The man definitely has brain fog and has for a while, but unlike your DH he's belligerent about it.

CW, why can't he give himself the injections?

Yes, I get it now. Glad for him that he made it home.

CWillie,
How did that go for your Bil yesterday?
Just how is it that on short notice, so many other 'entities' can disrupt our lives?
I hope sis was strong.

BIL got word he was being discharged today and sis was told when she comes to come pick him up she will be trained to give him his blood thinner by injection. Wait, what?! And no, sis was scheduled to work and she wouldn't be picking him up today.
Geez, it's not as though she hasn't been there every day trying to get info.

TN,

Not all people are cut out to be good teachers. That’s for sure.

I remember one of my daughter’s teachers saying that she shouldn’t drink milk with her lunch.

This teacher was vegan. She approved of my daughter’s peanut butter and jelly sandwich but told her not to drink milk with it. My kid thought she was nuts! LOL 😆

I don’t care who is or isn’t vegan but she shouldn’t have tried to tell her fourth grade students to be vegan along with her!

NHWM, she actually told my grand nephew this liberal opinion, which she repeated for the principal. Apparently the little boy didn't tell her we only do this to a small patch of the yard. GN told the teachers they should spray the kindergarten play area after a girl got stung and had a reaction; i.e. keep them safe like we do at home... Principal assures me she had been counseled about keeping her opinions to herself (or maybe how little ears have big mouths attached to them).

TN,

This teacher is a bit extreme! Hey, I am all for protecting our environment but she’s going a bit too far.

She needs to be concerned about more important issues and leave you to tend to your own yard.

cw,

How is your sister holding up with all of her husband’s issues? I am glad that she has you to vent to. I’m sure that helps some.

Cat,

Yeah, antibiotics can definitely tear up our digestive systems.

Unfortunately, sometimes it works out that way. Meds help with one thing and upsets other things.

Well, according to the student teacher at the elementary school, I am anti-envirnmentalist earth killer. Why you ask? Because I do not want children under 6 who may have bee allergies to be strung. We keep a fenced in plot of the yard with a swing set and other toys in the yard for smaller children to play and we spray the yard in the winter to kill dandelions and flowering clover (as recommended). Not having flowers in this 50'x50' yard is killing the bees. The rest of the yard is thickly covered so I guess mowing the grass also kills the bees; afterall it takes 24 hours or so till there are new blooms...

BIL had a visit this morning from the same doctor that in the ER told him he would either die or be a vegetable. This time she apparently told him he was lucky and that next time they won't be able to help him. Like .... seriously?? If she thinks that will scare him into better compliance she is very wrong, it will have the opposite effect. What a witch (with a b).

Yes, dark chocolate in small amounts aren’t high in calories and not bad for you. It’s the milk chocolate that is high in calories and not healthy. I prefer the taste of dark chocolate.

Beatty,

No! You can’t hide it from yourself! LOL 😆

Hey, when I was cleaning out my closet awhile back, I found a purse that I didn’t remember buying! Maybe it was a gift. Anyway, it was an ugly purse. I donated it! Maybe someone with bad taste will use it.

Oops. Secret confession.

I just found the Easter half price chocolate I bought after LAST Easter. I kind of remember my cunning plan now.. to hide it & bring out in May as an extra treat!
(meaning May 2022)

Of course it is all past use by date now 😭

Evidence will be placed in the bin the night before bin collection. No point disclosing!

Thanks, Llama

I was tired and I was glad to be able to warm up too! I made a cup of hot herbal tea before I crashed.

I thought that I would be fine because I had on long sleeves. I won’t make that mistake again. I am bringing a jacket.

You know it’s cold when all of the staff had on sweaters and jackets. They are busy running around and they were cold too.

My husband sent me a funny link to watch.

YouTube Dr. Glaucomflecken

He is an ophthalmologist who sort of makes fun of all medical professionals. Well, he takes a lighter look at what ‘really’ goes on in the medical field. He interviews all sorts of specialists. It’s hysterical!

Chocolate.
My love. My nemesis. My extra 100lb.
Oh, how your seductive sweetness overwhelms my resolve. No tightness of jeans nor snugness of sweater can convince me to bid you farewell. While I detest what you’ve done to me, I cannot deny having savoured our moments together, nor that I look forward to many, many more.

I went to get DH’s meds. Walgreens had all of the Easter candy on sale 50 percent off. Yay! I bought a mini Ghirardelli’s bunny for my lunch. It’s so cute! Hahaha 🤣

I want one of those Navage nasal care machines. They are $99. I have horrible allergies. I wonder how they work. I’m going to ask my doctor if she thinks they are worth spending $99 on.
