I had the weirdest experience this week. It's not fibro related, more old shyte popping up. I just need to tell someone about it.

some background - My father was an abusive alcoholic. Beer was his usual drink.

This week while listening to an audiobook the character was drunk and speaking to another character. The actor reading the book did an excellent job of portraying drunken speech. As I listened I could smell the beer breath my father used to have. It wasn't like a memory or the smell. I would swear I actually could smell the odor. MAybe it was a flashback? I dunno, but it was weird and unsettling.

Sorry I've been MIA. I went inpatient for a bit after mom got out. I'd gotten Sui. Am ok.

Kiya, get all the rest you can. You must really need it. I hope you are feeling better today.

Liz, it was a flashback. I have them too, sometimes and they are unsettling to say the least.

Gus, I hope things are better soon. You are loved. Remember that.

Belle was very sick last night. She spit up for hour hours. I gave her medicine to her and I have to give it with a syringe.
She always fights me on it and she must have choked. She scared me to death. This morning she is back to being lethargic, but she's been that way since she started being in heat.

I have a very bad upper respiratory and bronchial infection. I am cancelling my appointments today to try to get it under control. If not, I'm going to have to go to my family Dr. before I get full blown bronchitis. From the way I'm wheezing, I suspect I already am there.

Stick Man is outside making all kinds of noise. He is supposed to be out of here by the first. I hope he's moving his stuff out, but all I know is he's yelling outside. Oh well. At least I was awake anyway...

If you don't mind, send good thoughts and/or prayers for Belle and for me.

I hope all of you had a good day yesterday and that you are pain free. I love you all.

So many people have this crud that I can't get in to see any Dr. at the clinic at all this week. I am going to call in the morning and see if there were any cancellations. I feel horrible. Belle doesn't feel much better than me. We are a sad pair.

I am in real severe pain today

it feels like my body is burning, and because I was so desperate, I almost limped back to my seat.. just to make it stop

Those flowers do look like angels. They are so pretty.

I was able to be seen by a Dr. yesterday. She gave me a bunch of medicine and, while very weak, I'm doing better than I was by a bit. That's good.

I didn't give Belle her medicine and she hasn't coughed or spit up a single time.
