Joe is still very clingy and needs a lot of reassurance. He’s got some issues but nothing like before where death seemed imminent. Back when death looked imminent and he was laying under the bed with his little head out I said, “Michael Joseph, If I did anything to contribute…

Joe update
Joe Schmoe update. I stopped giving him this several days ago. Not going to say it was this, just saying I stopped giving it to him. I WANT to say he looks better. He’s out from under the bed more.He’s slow in the morning. He didn’t recognize me at one…
A double shot of usefulness
I’ve not shown off my Philodendron Hope plant in awhile. It’s growing out of two Betta tanks. I’m going to clip it back soon and allow certain leaves to mature. It’ll look nicer cut back. I have hope. There’s no doubt about the hope I have, but the path to…
Eating Disorder Clinic. Outpatient Care Only.
Today I started care at the eating disorder clinic for abstinence and binge eating. I didn’t feel judged at all. I didn’t feel like my size disgusted them. I know not eating for 3 days is a problem but I didn’t realize it would be something to try to make…
Life Today
My hospital bed allows me to sleep well. I can lift the head and feet which helps me rest. Joe turned 15 on the first. Come April my CNA will have been here for a full year. She treats me well. I have a CNA on Saturday too. I like…

It took a month instead of two weeks to complete the painting of sunflowers with the Scripture. When the painting was picked up she ordered one for herself. The other person who saw it ordered one. I’ll be doing them on paper. I seriously do not enjoy canvas. One of…
Remnants. Art. Seeing.
I’m getting ready to start physical therapy here at home to help some of the healing along due to recent falls. I’m pleased it’s at home. I told the doctor I’m not able to tolerate going to a center for physical therapy because of the setup. There’s too much public…
Gratitude: Relief
While learning to live in a COVID world, I’ve begun to venture out and meet new people. I met a woman who was in the segregated south and was living in the thick of historic moments many only read about. I’m grateful for the loyal love and patience shown to…
A Joe Schmoe Update
As Joe Schmoe recovers he’s getting away with murder. LOL This furry, green eyed boy seriously rules me. Joe prefers the right side of the bed, well that’s also the side I want to sleep on. If he’s already sleeping there I won’t move him I’ll just sigh and grumble…
