I hope your day is going well. It is 76 degrees F and sunny here at the Jersey Shore. This is my idea of winter weather!
Yes I'm still alive and kicking. I've been dealing with some serious health issues since my hospitalization last Monday. The GI doctor has me on FOUR different medications aside from the stuff I normally take. I've been busy resting and trying to rebuild my strength along with trying to keep up with the med schedule.
My ex has been tremendously helpful throughout this ordeal. I was approved for short-term disability. Thank Darwin I increased my contribution like 2 years ago because when I signed up I was making only like $40,000 and now I make more than double that. I see the doctor in a few days and it may be extended into long-term for another couple of weeks. We shall see. I'm fine with it as long as I get paid.
I tried accupuncture yesterday and I thought it was cool. It didn't hurt at all. We did a guided meditation after she did the needles on everyone. After that she put these bead things in our ears. When you feel anxious you are supposed to press on both of them for like 4 seconds. I haven't tried that yet.
What's everyone else up to this afternoon?

I was wondering how you were doing. I'm glad you're okay-ish!
I hope things go well for you when you do see your doctor again.
I've wanted to try acupuncture but just haven't gotten up the courage to try it. I hate needles of any kind!
I've been dizzy all day so stayed in bed. Pretty has brought me a chicken sandwich and bottles of water.
It is 72F with heavy cloud cover and 25 mph winds here. It's supposed to start storming any time and lasting a couple of days.

I’ve had lunch, walked, folded my laundry, and now it’s nap time! Hope the meds help your gastric issues. You can’t explain the pain until you have gone through it.

That is a lot of meds but I sure hope they help you and you can recover quicker. So you are not teaching now? Many blessings, and I sure wish you the best.

I am doing fine sharing news stories as well as completing surveys under a mostly sunny day with the temperature at 79 degrees F.

Thanks for posting, many of us were wondering what was going on. I take it you are feeling better at this point? Good thing the ex is helping and being supportive.

Hello
Glad to see you on the land of the living
Nice weather, 76F sounds awesome to me, that would be a perfect summer day here in Scotland
Glad you got approved for disability
And it's also great to hear that your ex has been and is still being proactive on helping you recover
Hope you are better soon
Enjoy the rest, don't over do it
