I have been trying to get back here and add another entry for awhile now,
many things stood in my way. Almost two years have passed since I laid lines here
and I'm going to do my dandiest to not spit sours about it. I would love to see what any of you have I can'tof you have been up to but since that isn't possible, I'll fill you in on some of what has taken up my time.
You may remember that I was in school and had gained my grade 9 and 10 credits.
Covid introducing us to it's ugly and my lack of luster in learning on a screen
instead of a classroom, stopped me. That's alright, I got a job and it's honestly,
the best place for me. I just celebrated my first year by making dinner and dessert
for my two bosses. You probably know that's how I always celebrate people places
and moments in my life.
Shortly after gaining employment, I had to move from the condo I so loved.
Though it was heartbreaking I understood why the owners wanted to sell and
have always appreciated the opportunity I was given to live there.
Now we are in a small two bedroom apartment that is over priced, like everywhere
else but it is adequate shelter and a lot better than being homeless. In the last
two years, life has shown me how to live with less, give more and be grateful for
everything, even your suffering because it could all be worse in a second.
Currently, I am in profound pain.
Let me start from the beginning. Back in September I received my first dose of
the covid vaccine. I didn't feel well the following day so I called in sick. I was back
to work the following day. About ten days later, I started having pain where
my hernia is. I managed it until October 14th. I came home from work, in pain.
I was in bed early, before 8 pm and ended up in the emergency department of the
hospital near me. I was the recipient of a successful surgery.
I spent five days healing with family in there beautiful apartment.....yup, blessed.
Four months later another obstacle. Agony I had have never endured.
This time a literal pain in my back side. A thrombosed hemorrhoid.
Unless you have lived this pain, you can't know how I am suffering.
Still, I am grateful.
Today I am excited because in a couple hours from now, our oldest son is
coming home to visit for a few days. He has been coming home a lot in the
last year and instantly hopped on a train to come see me when I had my surgery.
As always, he asked me to make him a few of his favourite foods.
Right now, I'm making the first of em. Queso Flamaedo then tomorrow he wants
egg in a cup and egg in a nest. Well, I should go and get ready because it's taking
me a ton of time to move around and accomplish anything.
As always, thank you for reading what's in my mind grounds and may you be
happy and well in this dismal weather day.
