New background

A new background for my blog! How exciting.

Good news from the pulmonologist. If my oxygen level stays at 90 or above during the day, I don't have to use the supplemental oxygen. Woo hoo!!! Except now I have a cold, so I am still using oxygen 24/7.

He also wants me to do an overnight pulse oximeter test that records my oxygen levels at night. I may be able to get rid of that too eventually and just have the cpap. So good news all round.

Monday, Monday

I woke up with a bad cold, whatever. Boo. Good thing I have a pulmonologist's appointment at 2:20 pm today. I hate summer colds.

I also fell again last week. At work. Tripped over a dangling mouse cord and did a full face plant. My left wrist is severely sprained and I injured my right knee again. My mom thinks my right knee should shoot me. I agree. LOL.

This accident is covered by workman's comp though.

Friday was my dad's birthday. We went to Texas Roadhouse for dinner on Saturday night to celebrate his birthday. Yummy. Noisy. The birthday boy sat on a saddle on a sawhorse and had his picture taken. They serve peanuts in the shell, which is my dad's favorite. We had nineteen (!) people there: 7 out of his 10 children, five grandchildren, and spouses, significant others, etc. It was really fun.

I'm going back to bed. I have no stitching progress to report. As soon as my left hand is out of the splint, then I shall start stitching again.

Oh, I did finally get to see 'Lost in Austen'. Excellent and very entertaining. I highly recommend it.
