Well it happened again

Hi everyone.  It happened again.  With Ron gone, I had to go shopping Wednesday.   Yes I went among humanity or as some would say “the unwashed masses of heathens”, or as I say people like me.  And Friday I started to feel bad, crappy, shitty.  Sure enough I woke at 3:20 am ill.  I was sweating, congested, feeling like I needed to vomit, then have three times today.   I am getting so I hate going out.  Almost every time I get sick.  And it is not like I am going up to people and face snogging them.  I respect personal space, I try not to catch anything.  Well the consequence is yesterday and all day today I have not been able to get to the comments.   I doubt I will get to many today, I can hardly sit here and read.   Ron will be home tonight about 10:30 or 11 pm.  I had wanted to clean the house some.  But I have barely been out of bed.  I already feel the need to go back to bed and I have only been up about an hour.  So again as always if you leave a comment that I don’t respond to in a few days (I seem to be almost always two days behind) please recommend, send me a not telling me, anything.  But if you send me an email please tell me in the comments of any post.  I find email the biggest pain in the butt, just a bit less annoying than fussy cats.   Best wishes, respect, loves, and hugs to all.   Scottie

    1. Hi Barry. Thank you. I am getting to be a hermit. I dislike going out of the house to do things like shop and even dislike the frequent medical appointments I have to do. Every time I seem to get ill a few days after. I realize that is just anecdotal and probably doesn’t happen every time, but to me it feels like it. But the reverse is true also. The more I don’t go out, the less I get to build up immunity to things everyone else does. Thanks again. Best Wishes.

      By the way. Something I don’t really think I mentioned at the time with so much going on. Your giving up your comfort space to comfort me in our time of loss of Ron’s brother was greatly appreciated, and I don’t have the words to thank you. Best wishes always. Scottie

  1. I know you know how, so just take good care of our friend. I’m glad to hear Ron and his sister got the business handled so quickly, so he can be home to take care of himself, too.

    1. Hi Ali. You don’t know how true you are being. The very next day seeing how I was he ordered me to bed, and made me eat, rest, hydrate, and did everything but wipe my bottom as a good mother. It was so frustrating. But I know he means well. He is just worried I guess and making up for the lost of his brother. But I am not the one that had dementia nor am I in a nursing home … YET. Hugs.

    1. Hi Michael. Thank you very much. I am recovered mostly. Every time this happens, my body takes a setback. I simply have to accept and live with it, my bad body, some of which is directly caused by my childhood abuse. The bone issues I have are due to the trauma I suffered as a child, and the anemia I suffer is due to the bone damage.

      So many things such as the brain damage from having my head repeated slammed into walls, floors, or impacted with other objects caused a lot of damage I won’t ever be able to correct from. It has impaired my thinking all my life.

      But I simply must deal with the hand in life I have been dealt, and my wonderful husband along with the grand people online I meet such as yourself keep me going. Thank you for your comments and reblogging of my posts.

      So Michael, how are you doing? Are you OK? You live in Germany, which I visited as a soldier for a few years and fell in love with. Such wonderfully helpful grand people to a young lost boy from the US. While my fellow army people would complain about unfriendly people in restaurants and places I never faced that. I would go into a place to eat, or a roadside kiosk, and in what little broken German I could manage I would try to order. After a few attempts, the German person would ask me in English what I would like. I was always so grateful. I spent about 4 years in Germany and I never did learn to speak the language. But everyone was still so nice to me.

      I remember at one of my first bases in the cafeteria which was staffed by mostly German workers, I explained to one lady that I was trying hard to learn but struggling to be able to speak German. So every morning she would teach me a new word or phrase. I would ask for the newspaper and she would repeat it in German. I would try to repeat it, and she wouldn’t hand it to me until I got close to the correct way to say it. Same with other foods and stuff. Every morning I would ask for YYY and she would repeat the German word for it, I would struggle to pronounce it, and she would repeat it. Other staff would join in to do the same. I loved it. But sadly the next morning I wouldn’t be able to remember much how to pronounce the words properly but they would repeat it all again. Grand people to help me a visitor to their country. They must have felt how stupid this kid is.

      I never experience the refusal to deal with us that other US soldiers talked about. I never had problems. I was invited in to many German homes, I ate meals with people talking in two languages which only one I understood. But it was grand. I had such a wonderful time, I sometimes wish I had stayed.

      Anyway Michael, thanks for letting me walk down memory lane, I did love my time in Germany. Hugs. Scottie

    1. Thank you Suze. Yes emails can be a pain in the butt … then like today I got an email from a fellow childhood abuse survivor. I am glad he reached out and he did not want anything other than to offer me support which I also returned towards him. So I guess like everything it has both good and bad. Hugs Scottie
