I have been up since 9 AM this morning and that makes for a long day for me. So much so in fact I have been thinking it is Friday all evening. This has been a crazy week. We did not go to Church because of the nasty weather.  For the same reason I did not go out on Monday.Â
Â
Tuesday I went out but not because I wanted to.  I was talking to my friend Adith on the phone and all of a sudden I was having trouble breathing. We said good night and shortness of breath became worse. Joann called 911 and the Paramedics came. Off I went to the Hospital with two young men and a young woman. Getting out of my apartment into their vehicle was no easy task. It was raining and they wheeled the thing I was on up over the slag drive way. The ride down the mountain would have been unbearable except for the young woman riding with me. She had a dry blanket for me and I told her I was not used to this cold because I came from Florida. Guess what, she is from Florida also. Been here since she was 14. Â
Â
Joann and Bill followed in their car. So we arrive and there does not seem to be any patients in the ER at the time. Good because I don't need any more germs that I already have. So they put me in this room and I had four women and one young man giving me pills, taking my blood pressure, drawing blood.Â
Â
I asked Norma the names of the others because she seemed to be in charge. There was Peggy, Lynn, and Luis. They were all just great.  Very attentive. I don't know if they are all Nurses but they sure made my trip to ER as pleasant as possible. Joann was allowed to come in and sit with me.Â
Â
So, when all the tests were completed the Doctor came in (not my Doctor but the ER Doctor) and said everything was normal and I could go home.Â
Â
Such good news because I hate being in the Hospital. So diagnosing my own condition I decided it was a Gall Bladder attack. No. 1 Bill grilled hamburgers and it was so good I ate a hamburger with mustard and onion. I can never eat a whole sandwich. No. 2 I ate french fries (more of them than usual).
So, if I live long enough I might learn how to manage this Gall Bladder of mine.Â
Â
Tomorrow is Friday and I am sleeping in.Â

Love and prayers from here to there
