Thanks! So true!

If I hadn't gotten antibiotics, I would have chopped off my hand this morning!

Government lawyer, state and federal.. I moved around a bit but managed to roll retirement $ around so I never spent it and always saved and opted to have the max deducted for pension.

They’re ruining my belly, it’s true, and I gotta knock down one problem at a time. And right now my focus is on getting my cat fang infection under control before my hand explodes, so it’s all the yogurt for me. I can't wait to be healthy again, 

Professional training for the win!

Dud your bite hurt?

Health stuff is nerve-wracking.

What? It's beautiful!

Ugh. A Covidiot Q MAGAT gave my entire office Covid a month after I retired.

Ay yi yi, my best thoughts are headed your way. 

I'm loving everybody this week, Krispy!

I’m thrilled about it, even though I had all these maladies to deal with. It was the best part of my week!

Thanks Krispy! What's novalsan?

Thanjs! I’m so mixed emotions today but overall it feels incredible to have had a vaccination.

It's the price of admission to life because we all…

A UTI and then an infected cat bite. The antibiotics are chewing up my belly and my hand feels like it's about to explode! Woe is me this week...

I worked at okay-enough jobs that let me have relatively short hours, lots of holidays and vacation time, and a pension for life with earlyish retirement. It was most definitely a trade off, in terms of salary and a cliquey, not great working environment. But here I am retired, living abroad, with a lifetime income.…

Yes. Stubborn with crazy energy. 

Wow. I haven't made anything but bought a bottle of tequila with which I will marinate watermelon chunks. I haven't really eaten since Monday, sick and no appetite, and damn my belly looks flat! It's the only silver lining of sickness.
