Sunday Angel much better

 So Angel and KR slept downstairs.  I had trouble with the CPAP, the top piece to the nose thingy popped off so it was hissing a lot and I tried to figure out what the problem but could not  Oh Well!!!!.  

Sleep score was BAD, 36.

Kurt was at Corrina's and came home for church.  I was so so dizzy and coughed almost ALL DAY, and had a headache, so Angel and I stayed home,  I watched sermon on TV and also organized the cutting board cabinet, and put the stuff out of the way on the table.

While Angel and KR were out walking, which they should not do, I went to Amazon Go and returned the two gray Angel onesies and the Xylomelt small box that I did not need and the eyebrow pencil that I know is going to be too dark.  I ordered three other shirts and two gray eyebrow pencils.

The guy that sent the gray eyebrow pencil from eBay finally answered and said he would send another as the one I got was all dried out.  Sheesh.  What kind of product do they sell? 

After church, KR weed whacked the back yard and planted sunflowers and ate and took a nap.  Adele came by and brought the turkey they could not finish and we took a leg and a wing off and KR brought it over to Charity's mom's house.  While he was napping, I went for a ride, almost 10 miles.  I also dropped off Charity's Lucy slippers, that she wanted for Harmony.

Kurt went up to Corrina's AGAIN in the afternoon.  My cough never abated and I took meds so that I can get some rest.  Paid some bills and ready for next week.  Got lots to do.

In bed at 9

Saturday

 I am so tired I can't see straight.

We were up, me not too early.  Used the CPAP all night and no pee if you believe it.  Sleep score is still just 50.  HMMM  KR was up and Angel is not moving much in the morning.  We didn't give her any meds last night as she was still so lethargic  She did eat half a can of the food and drank some water.  

I changed the sheets.  KR slept downstairs with her, and her soft cone.

The onesies came but they didn't fit.  I returned the to Amazon.  That is why it is good to have PRIME

I ordered three more and hope they fit.  Then we would not have to worry about watching her all the time.

IT WAS A BAD DIZZY DAY.  Yesterday was so good so I don't get it.  But the coughing was not too bad.

KR took a nap and I went to pick up the pads from Miriam, KR got more pads from Steven this morning  We didn't get much vege but I made turkey bone broth and then added the vege and made soup.  It was very good.  I also delivered a bunch of food to Kathleen, so that we didn't have so much left over.

Adele text me, they bought a 13 pound turkey and ate all the white meat and they don't want anymore.  DO I WANT IT?   Are you kidding?  of course.  So I will go pick up the turkey and freeze as much as I can.

KR slept downstairs again.  I got the new CPAP nasal cushion, and will try that tonight.

Friday Angel Comes Home!!!!

 We were up really early, as we could not sleep looking for the pup.  KR started to do a little yard work and I canceled my 8 am cardio and went to the 9 am yoga.  We then went to pick up the pup.  She just wanted to go home and we got the post op instruction on what to do and which meds to give.

She came home and went to sleep.  We took the cone off and put the donut on, and KR took a nap right next to the crate with the sofa cushion and I went for an almost 9 mile ride.  Then he went and played pickleball for about 2 hours.  John and Johann were yelling at each other and he told the story and it was hilarious.  I tried napping next to her but I could not sleep.  Spoke to Melissa finally.  

Neil Kaplan borrowed Kurt's truck and bought a new TV, super HD, so we got his 68" TV for mom's house.  Too bad it won't fit downstairs in our house.  Kurt and KR picked it up about 6 and took it over to mom's.  I will give mom's Samsung TV away.  

KR ate more left over, Kurt planted a bunch of stuff, and I stayed by Angel all afternoon and evening. 


Thankwgiving 2025 11/27

 Well it is actually Black Friday but i am combining three days again.

Wednesday I had to work.  ONLY 8 - 12   THANK  YOU !!!  Usually they start at 7 on Wednesday but I didn't want to work that long.  My knee was still so sore so I actually DIDN"T DO ANYTHING, but ice when I got home.  KR had done a lot of the food prepping, cutting and dicing the onions and celery and getting stuff ready for the turkey tomorrow.  I just pray that I would be able to run.  The sleep score was POOR at 42   AND only about 7000 steps

THANKSGIVING  

We were up early and sleep score was 41 and poor.  Kurt and I left for the TROT, in front of Sam's Club.  He has been to the trot every since he was old enough to be in the stroller, except for the one year that he was in Taiwan.  I used KT tape and knee brace before we left and we JUST made it to the beginning.  The Stars Spangled Banner was being sang as we pulled up.  We never saw the 'TURKEY' that we always take a picture with.  

What a day.  Angel is still at the vet and we decided on having the surgery to see what is in her stomach instead of endoscopy as if that cannot be done successfully, they still need to open her up.  The quote was 15000, so we opted to have Dr Roca open her up.  

WELL, I finished with 11.06 average per mile.  How about that.  We picked up very little freebie.  There was hardly anything, as we were so late getting there, but hey, we ran,  Corrina came down to cheer us on.  Kurt finished about 27.  I dropped him off and went to the jacuzzi and sat talking to that old black guy and took a shower and came home.  I iced again all day almost.

Putting the turkey in the oven about 12 noon and KR took a nap.  I didn't have time.  Kurt went and got the table and he set the table with the wine glasses that KR got from Pea Soup Anderson in Buellton.  We had 12 and then down to 10.  About 3 30 we went to see Angel, she had gotten out of surgery about 1, and she was really wobbly, and glad to see us but really out of sort.

We got home, Will and Diamond were there but said they cannot stay and had to go to Diamonds parents as Christine put the turkey in the oven at 7 30 and I imagine she has a 20-25 pounder so would take about five hours 

We had Brian, Jamie, Eddie C, me and KR and Kurt, Corrina, Helen, Inaya, and Deron.  10.  We had so much food and I was so so stuffed when we were done, and so so tired.  Kurt, Helen, Inaya and Corrina went downstairs and watched Star Trek, I think, and we went to bed. 

The 'kids' did the dishes and I put most of the stuff away.

Tuesday OFF oh my Consultation with Dr Petti

 It was the OFF day but I did something with my upper back and was in muscle spasm.  I had injection appt with Dr Andrawas office and didn't know where, so I went to Crenshaw.  THANK goodness it was that location.  The PA did it and man was it sore after.  I could hardly move my right knee.  Now how am I gonna run on turkey day?  It was Orthovisc, or Synovisc or some kind of lubricant.

Got home and KR was off with mutt.  I started and hung the laundry and ran the roomba and we had a list of things to do a mile long.  Took a nap and overslept a little, so about 10 min late with Dr Petti.  

SHE IS 71  wowowowowo  the consult went well and we shall see the surgery, revision day.

Monday and WHAT A WORK DAY !!! 11/24/2025

 Well, I had to sub for either Dr Desai or Dr Sata, don't remember which.  KR is having a great time and will return tonight.  I switched the cars and I parked my Prius in the garage and KR's car in the upstairs guy above Mr Dharma's unit who is always hogging the car spot and never move nor park in the garage.  The new extern that started last week I met, plus the volunteer guy that wants to get into dental school.  And Alejandra who has to do her hours for dental assisting. 

We were so so busy that I didn't even finish my charts, and left at 2 as Angel was locked in the house at 8:45 when Kurt went to work.  She did not pee in the house nor poop.  She did throw up yesterday when I gave her some chicken.  And eating grass a lot.  I gave her a famotidine as internet says is ok.  

I went to a cardio class, it was a different Asian lady, very fast pace, and I was tired.  I used the CPAP and left I slept pretty well, so the dizziness at work was NOT bad at all.  I did cycle 6 miles and had 15K plus of steps. I am sure that is from the cardio class.

KR came home about 8 15 and had a great time.  He also had the Valor zoom call at 9.  I went to bed with CPAP and trying again to sleep better.

Sunday KR goes surfing at the Ranch

 We were both up really early.  He was amped about going surfing.  ***  Flip picked him up and they were on the road about 7:10, meeting Joost somewhere.  KR packed his lunch fixings and boards and they were off.  Kurt came home last night and I took KR's car over to the condo and started working on the floors and dusting and the laundry that I had done yesterday.  They were almost dried.

SLEEP SCORE 37.  Egad, bad.

I was coughing so we stayed home and zoomed.  I also drove to Steven's and dropped off two dragon fruit and a lot of winter clothes.  Catherine W-C came by for a visit.  Adele came by for a visit.  Alex is pregnant and Julie is going to get engaged soon.  WOWOWOWOOW

Kurt went to see Wicked with Corrina and came home in the early evening.  I tried cleaning up the mess I made with the island and the garage.  Took so long.  I am so tired of this vertigo.  it was off and on today.  And tomorrow I have to work, dang.


Saturday 11/22/2025

 Sleep score 37  NO GOOD

I had a class at the Y but I canceled.  I planted too many sunflowers at the Y and my back and hip was sore  YUP, my RIGHT HIP is bothering me.  I think I gotta go see someone.  I can't seem to bend my leg back, so maybe it is soft tissue.

KR went up to Juanita Stuckers to do some yard work and turns out the event was postponed!!!  I was at mom's cleaning.  There was still ALOT to do, even though Corrina said they did a lot.  Nope.  KR went to FM and got a lot of lettuce and some other food.  He also pruned a lot of dragon fruit.  40 I think.  I gave a bunch away.  Some to Teresa Hom, two to Nancy and two to Christine Jung.  

He took a nap, and we went to SBCC for their Saturday service.  It was really good, about judging your sisters and brothers, and how to judge.

We didn't stay for the food, as I was really not feeling well with my hip and the cough.

Friday and Lite too

 HA I am on time

I could not sleep and was up by 5 but didn't get out of bed until almost 6.  It had quit raining, so I did a load of laundry, including the rags and the floor mats.  KR tried to go surfing but no go.  He picked up the baseballs for me from Nyssa.  I had a cardio class but I canceled.  I fell off the bed last night while trying to get in and slipped.  So not really falling OFF the bed.

Sleep score still in the 30's.  Oh well

I did have a yoga class.  KR took Angel down to the beach.  I came home and KR was making another one of his wonderful fruit salad.  Guava, persimmons, dragon fruit.  We have so many dragon fruits this year.  He went to play pickleball, I went for a ride.  Nothing to be had in the alleys.

Kurt came home, after one week, almost at PoPo's and Corrina cleaned the condo some.  And went home, now that the garnish is done and safe to walk on it.  Tomorrow Kurt is going to clean some more and KR has work at Junita Stucker's, with his Monday morning group coming to help.  

We went to Friday night Lite and Pastor Paul spoke on millenialism and I was thoroughly confused.

WHERE did the time go? Today is Thursday 11/20/2025

 So the last time I posted was 11/9 and I have been remiss.

It started raining this afternoon and has been raining for hours.  The week of the 10th, I guess I went to the ymca for many classes and did some cycling and there was a holiday in there, Veteran's Day, which was Tuesday the 11 of November.  I did work on Thursday the 13.  KR was suppose to go on a trip but got canceled TWICE which was a blessing as Doug was having issues with his heart.  He got some stents placed in.

I have been having such a hard time with coughing and vertigo.  One day, like today, almost completely symptom free and another day just can't move at all.  Bible study was the past Tuesday 18, and I felt terrible.  There were only 8 of us but we had a great discussion.

KR played pickleball this morning and then he had a Valor meeting.  I cooked vegetables and chicken/rice soup.  We went to bed by 8

Sunday 11/9/2025

 Lovely still in Katmandu.

I didn't feel well most of the morning.  SLEEP SCORE 35   bad.  I woke up and had some coffee, but could not keep my eyes open.  I just feel so so sleepy and I had over 8 hours of sleep.  KR went to walk Angel and I just laid around and cleaned a bit and did some laundry all the while just feeling like crap.

He ate some brekkie and went to church.  I went for a 25 min bike ride.  I did church online.  He came home after Q & A and had lunch.  I made potato pancake, from the mashed potato from YMCA, some rice and flour and egg and corn meal and milk.  He had it with apple sauce.  Plus I cooked the wagu beef.

We went to play pickleball and I lasted 28 minutes or so.  Not bad.  My hip and hand was holding up, although I hardly chased any balls.

Came home and tried to take a nap.  No go.  Prayed for my vertigo to go away.  It was bad again after I came home.  He then took Angel down to the beach and I folded laundry and he had left over for dinner, noodle and beef shank and salad.  We made a list of things to do.  There is a long list.

Lovely called me as she could not use her credit card so she had mine and bought luggage for the plane  So nice to see Abby and Lovely on the chat.

KR went to bed early.  Kurt came home late.  Corrina and Inaya and Helen are going to be at mom's condo for a few days.  Something is getting varnished at their house.

Thursday through Saturday 11/8/2025

 Yup another three days went by and I just don't know.

I have been fiddling with the CPAP and two nights in a row the thing has too much liquid and is leaking water and making this gurgling noise so I had to shut it off.  I am trying the original mask tonight and see if it would help.

GEEZ  still can't get enough sleep.

KR went surfing and said it was really good.  I cooked wagu beef and rice and he had a nice lunch and we took a nap.  I went cycling at 4 so so late, dropping off Sumi's mushrooms and phone clip thingy.

Friday I had yoga class at 9 and KR went surfing again.  I cooked shrimp with fish in alfredo sauce.  So yummy.  We went to Friday night light and in the middle of it I got hit with the sleepies.

Today, we were up early, and he went surfing again and then we went to Golden Cove for my appt with the Filler lady, on the way home, we drove by PV cliffs and KR saw this woman who he thought was drunk go down the path sliding on her butt so he called the cops.  I said if she tried to get up by herself she would tumble down and kill herself.  The cops came plus the fire department.  They littered her up.

We got a LOT of vegetables from FM (I went with Kurt) and I cooked some shank and Sarah came by for some vege and dropped off some yummy noodles with an amazing steak.  Charity came by with Harmony.  We had a great big pot of soup for tomorrow.

Wednesday Office meeting PLUS working

 yup, I had office meeting and then workingg.  We first walked Angel at the beach.  I went to office meeting, 9 - 11 and then came home and went for a nap.  Then an hour 

I went back to work and I brought the happy birthday signs and hooked them up Dr Kim's birthday and he is ONLY 24 or 26 or something.  He did four fillings and it took awhile and I did the rest of the recalls.  We were done by 4:30  

I got home and ate a bunch of lemon cake and KR was playing pickleball.  He came back and I took a shower and was in bed by 6 15.  

Lovely left taipei and is on her way to Nepal, via Thailand.  Oh what fun

Tuesday 11/4/2025 VOTE proposition 50

 I had dropped my ballot off last week, so no need to worry.  Kurt had the left over after we went to bed.

I had a class at 8 and I canceled.  Had to clean the house before Andrea and Maribel came to clean.  I had a class at 9 30, Senior Cardio.  HAHAHA  I taped my knee before the class.  Then he went to FM and got some lettuce.  We went to the Y again for lunch.  Shepard's Pie which was good.  I saved all my food for Kurt.

Bible Study tonight, except Cristian said he is not coming as he is out in the valley and must finish a job.  We got the cheese and crackers and I asked Pam to make dessert.  HAHAHA   No sushi tonight.  That is ok.  Too much food.  I was so tired, laid down for a nap and 1 1/2 hours flew by.  

KR went to play pickleball at 4 and washed the pup when he got back.

Monday DODGER parade downtown

 SLEEP SCORE is 36 BAD BAD

I meant to post yesterday but the tireness is really weird.  I just want to sleep all day.

First we walked to the park, after KR checked the surf and no go.

I had cardio dance at 8 30 and it was pretty dizzy all the way through.  But I hung in there.  Then I did some weighs as it has bee awhile since I did that.  I also went on a bike ride but didn't see anything in the alley.  My RIGHT hip is hurting a little.  

Helen came down and she and Corrina drove to Torrance/Crenshaw and took the bus to the parade that Los Angeles hosted for Dodgers for winning the World Series.  Back to back.  They had a nice time and came back around 2 and we were napping

SLEEP SCORE WAS 79 !!!

Really?  

We had lunch at the Y, it was lasagna, and I brought most of mine home for Kurt.

Bed was at 9 pm

Saturday and Sunday

 I could swear that it s only Saturday and it is now Sunday night.  Yesterday was Saturday and we went to the park with Angel after KR came back from the beach saying it was no good.  I think.  He went to FM by himself while i did my cardio class and the teacher didn't show up but two of the students taught the class while half of them left.   It was still really good.    I picked up my medication from CVS.  Famotidine.

Afternoon cycling for 32 minutes.  It was getting cold.  Everyone watched the World Series which went to 11 innings with the Dodgers hit a homer by Will Smith, whoever he is.  KR and I were asleep and Kurt was up watching with Corrina.  She came by after work.

Sunday we went down to the beach and walked Angel.  I got really sleepy after we came back and I went right back to bed and was asleep.  For an hour and half.  I did NOT go to church.  Kurt and I both did Zoom and Corrina read a book.  I basically stayed in bed almost all day.  I was sleepy all day.  Whatever is the matter I JUST DON"T KNOW.

Curt called about my lab result and everything is fine, so maybe I will go back to see Dr Thai at Optum and see what I can do about getting better sleep.  Corrina stayed all day.  I did laundry and then Kurt said that the cat pee on the bed downstairs was bad so they washed EVERYTHING, including the mattress cover and the plastic covering.  I cooked beef neck bone and Kurt and Corrina went to Taco Bell.

Day Light savings was last night, so when it is 6 it is actually 7 so I went to bed early.

SHEESH
