Stuff

Still not breathing here. I have to take a long intake of breath before I talk. Then I cough and cough. What is wrong with me? Prednisone is a strong drug and I should be better. I will be going back to the doctor for the third time this week.

My second great uncle. Buried in Minnesota.
Yesterday found a new geneology site . It is in the beta version so it is free. When I went to bed yesterday morning I kept dreaming about adding people and would wake up and have to force myself back to sleep because all I wanted to do was look people up. Tonight I have been adding people for about five hours straight and I think I overdosed. I can't even think anymore. Why do I care so much about this? It is never going to end. Ever. 

Today I have lost my rescue inhaler twice. Once it fell into my nightstand and the other time it was under my laptop. This is my life.

I found this book this week and if I had a lot of money I would buy a copy for everyone and send it out in one big giveaway. But I don't have a lot of money so I am just going to tell you that it the best book I have read in a long time. Find it at your library!  If you hate it I will send you one defunct Canadian penny.

  1. Hahahah one defunct Canadian Penny!

    I'm sorry you're still not breathing right. Maybe you need some dry Alberta air? I still think this might have something to do with your hubby retiring. ;) Feel better soon!

    I had to put my keys on a lanyard and keep them around my neck, that's how often I lose them, so I totally feel your pain.

    The genealogy thing, I totally get. I think it's because you feel orphaned and you're searching for connection. You can send me two pennies...hahah!

  2. Love, love, love that book. However I really do need to re-read it! Urgently. And learn the lessons! Quickly too. Why is it so hard? Why also are you not getting better? I am worried about you. That doctor needs to sort you out! It must be the worst feeling not being able to breath properly. Hoping you get better again very soon. xx

  3. I have no desire to find any long-lost relatives!
    My silly sister tried that about 20 years ago...found a few gold-diggers, who wanted to claim they were off-spring of my late father!!! No way, Jose...not for me!
    If it gives you some solace, then by all means carry on...but...it sounds like it might be getting the better of you...while you are sick...
    Just sayin'......:o)

    Cheers!
    Linda :o)

  4. Hahahaha...love that penny comment!

    I think I embraced who I am quite some time ago. I'm stuck with me, and 'me' is not going anywhere, or changing, particularly at this old age, so I may as well just love 'me' as I am. And just live with 'me' as is. What that confusing? :)

    If I had the patience, maybe I'd do that family tree thing. But I don't. It sounds like a lot of work, and I don't think I can concentrate on it that long. Or it could be simply that my brother is doing it, putting in all the effort, so I don't bother. Could be that, too :)

  5. Have you seen a specialist about your breathing? Maybe it's time to get a referral. Hang in there!

  10. I could have sworn I commented on this. I REALLY hope your lungs start to behave soon. It's tough when you are short of breath all the time. Take care.
