First things first, where it is appropriate, HAPPY MOTHERS DAY to everyone here! My wife is resting here without too much problem today. We have six or more appointments this week, but something has already begun to pop up that is indicating one thing in particular might be at fault. She is still... Sign in to see full entry.

We spent most of the day in Valdosta, and I'll split this into *good* news/*bad* news. The good news - We aren't going to Avon Park tomorrow. I may early next week, but not during the "weekend drive." The bad news. Lisa had a Holter monitor placed on her last Thursday. For those not familiar, it... Sign in to see full entry.
Getting all of this medical stuff coordinated is a pain. We are heading to Valdosta this morning, about 40 minutes (due to heavy traffic) northeast of here, and tomorrow heading four+ hours south to Sebring/Avon Park. At least we can stay overnight there before coming back the next day (Saturday).... Sign in to see full entry.

It's looking like we have to travel south to Avon Park again on Friday. I'm not thrilled with that idea, but it is a necessity. I'll know more tomorrow, but I don't think I can escape it. It hit 90 yesterday. I wasn't bothered much, but Lisa was kvetching about it all day! LOL. It was the ride in... Sign in to see full entry.

My Comedy Skit
One more thing. I was telling some people I used to do stand-up comedy, and I get looks of doubt. This is a recording of a short two-minute gig in north Tampa in 2008. BTW, this is a G-rated audio clip. You may want to turn the volume down a bit. It was loud to be heard in the setting I was in. I... Sign in to see full entry.
This week continues to be a crazy one as we have to be back in Valdosta at 1:15 this afternoon for the wife to have an ultrasound of her thyroid, and then she has an ultrasound of her carotid arteries, those two big vessels in the neck. As more symptoms present themselves, I'm beginning to believe... Sign in to see full entry.

We've got some running to do. My wife has three, count 'em, three appointments in Valdosta this week. Among other things, they are doing to do an ultrasound of her thyroid and then her carotid arteries. She has begun to have sudden onset lightheadedness with "whiteouts" where she almost faints. This... Sign in to see full entry.

It's a quiet Sunday morning. The "neighborhood" had a block party with music and laughter. We didn't actively participate, but sitting outside and listening to the music was nice. While I am still not feeling 100%, I'm not feverish and nauseated as I was 24 hours ago. It will do for today. Not that... Sign in to see full entry.

Ugg. If forced to answer the question, "How are ya today?" I would be forced to keep it short and tell you, 'Not well.' I think I caught a virus that is making me feel all *urpy.* Nuff sed. I was feeling good when I went to bed last night, but at ~ 1:30 am, I awoke in a pool of heavy sweat,... Sign in to see full entry.
