LETS SEE...I CAN'T TALK ABOUT PERSONELL, OR POLITICS- OR RELIGION- OR LACK THEREOF, OR APPEARENCES -- HEALTH PROBLEMS ARE BORING-- DOESN'T LEAVE ALOT..
EXCEPT-- MAYBE I CAN COMPLAIN ABOUT THE WAY SOME PEOPLE CHOOSE TO MOVE THIER MOUTHS-
AS MY HEARING DIMINISHES ... OR THE BATTERY IN MY HEARING AID DIES, I AM REDUCED TO LIP READING--AND I AM PRETTY GOOD AT IT- FOR THIS REQSON I AM PASSING A LAW AT CRAZY ACRES ABOUT.... GUM CHEWING. .. JUST DON'T....
DID ANYONE EVER STOP TO THINK WHAT GUM CHEWING IS TO A PERSON WHO RELIES ON LIP READING?? I THOUGHT ONE WOMAN WAS RECITING THE GETTISBERG ADDRESS WHAN IN FACT SHE WAS CHEWING GUM... I HAVE HAD A CHANCE TO NOTICE AND THINK ABOUT IT,. IT IS.... I HAVE DECIDED....GUM CHEWING IS A FEMALE THING.... I DON'T KNOW OF A MAN OR BOY GUM CHEWER IN RECIENT MEMORY-- (MEMORY IS A WHOLE NOTHER PROBLEM.)
COULD ALL OF YOU TAKE NOTES ON THIS TOPIC?? AND LET ME KNOW.... DO I DARE SAY THE RATIO IS 1 MAN TO 100 WOMEN.? WHY IS THAT ????
****
NEXT IS "DRUG STORES" AND PHARMACISTS-- A COUSIN OF MINE------ NOW RICHARD IV---- CAME UP WITH A PRERSCRIPTION OF MY GRANDMOTHERS-- HERIDITY BEING WHAT IT CAN BE..., I WONDER IF I HAVE THE SAME ITCHY SKIN PROBLEM- IT SAYS THINGS LIKE 4.0 PHENOL .9 OLIVE OIL AND LIME WATER WITH 20. ZINC OXIDE ---
I THINK THERE IS ONE "DRUGGIST" IN IPSWICH-- HIS WHOLE STORE IS 100% DIFFERENT THAN THE USUAL DRUG STORE-- HE HAS THINGS LIKE MORTAR AND PESTLE'S THAT LOOK USED.... HE DOES HAVE A FOLLOWING-- I KNOW BECAUSE HE SELLS ALOT OF OOUR CALENDARS... IPSWICH HAS ALOT OF OLD FOLK VERY SET IN OLD FOLK WAYS - LIKE PLEASANT STORE PERSONELL WHO KNOW YOUR NAME...SO I WANNA GO WHERE EVERYONME KNOWS MY NAME-- EVEN IF IT IS A DRUG STORE AND NOT A DRUG HAVEN OF A LOCAL PUB.
***
IPSWICH DOES HAVE A "CORNER " LOCAL PUB-- IT IS VERY FAMOUS-- BUT FOR LOBSTER ROLLS. QUICKLY TRIPPING THRU MY MISC INFORMATION DEPT ABOUT LOBSTER..... .. THE GUY WHO DOES THE FOOD AT DOGFEST TOLD ME THAT THE LOBSTER HE USES-- WHICH IS WONDERFUL-- COMES IN A FROZEN LUMP-- AT $54 A LUMP-- I THINK THE LUMP WAS 2 POUNDS... BUT ONE CAN NOT BE SURE OF MY MEMORY.
HUMANS EAT ALOT OF LOBSTER... - THE ADVERTISING WORLD IS RUNNING ADS ABOUT LOBSTERMEN TOSSING EGG LAYING FEMALES BACK INTO THE SEA.
I USUALLY DERIDE ADVERTISING FOR TRYING TO INFLUENCT INDEPENDENT THOUGHT...., BUT I THINK IN THIS CASE THEY MAY BE CORRECT BECAUSE---- I CAN NOT REMEMBER THE LAST TIME I ATE LOBSTER WHICH HAD TEH RED " ROE" WHICH ARE THE EGGS...

MULTIPLE ADMISSIONS, INCLUDING AN ALMOST 5 WEEK ADMISSION, MAJOR SURGERY LASTING ALMOST 8 HOURS, RELYING ON A CENTRAL LINE IN MY VEIN TO GIVE ME NUTRITION, A BLOOD CLOT, A FEW MORE EMERGENCY ROOM VISITS AND WHILE WE ARE STILL WORKING THROUGH HOW TO GIVE ME A BETTER QUALITY OF LIFE, I AM EXTREMELY THANKFUL TO MY GI DOCTOR AND SURGEON WHO SAVED ME FROM A LIFE THREATENING DISASTER.
SO MUCH HAS HAPPENED THE PAST FEW MONTHS WITH MY HEALTH (I COULD HONESTLY WRITE A BOOK WITH ALL THATS BEEN GOING ON!), MORE THAN I EVER COULD HAVE IMAGINED BUT I AM THANKFUL FOR THE FAMILY, FRIENDS, DOCTORS AND PROVIDERS WHO HAVE AND CONTINUE TO KEEP ME GOING. I ALSO HAVE ONE INCREDIBLE SERVICE DOG WHO HAS BEEN BY MY SIDE EVERY STEP OF THE WAY
SOMEHOW I HAVE FOUND THE MOST INCREDIBLE SUPPORT SYSTEM AND I HAVE MET SO MANY WONDERFUL PEOPLE ON THIS JOURNEY. WHILE MY HEALTH IS NOT WHERE I HOPED IT WOULD BE, I HAVE FOUND THAT I AM EXACTLY WHERE I NEED TO BE!
