The Friendship of Israel
Catching Up With Wild Bill
Since I’ve been pretty much out of it the last couple of weeks, I missed some of Wild Bill’s videos. You might have noticed….I rather like this guy. What’s not to like? A man with common sense is a rare find these days. ![]()
Read on…
Progress ??
Well, it’s been one week, one day, and some odd hours since my surgery. I ain’t doin’ the polka anytime soon, that’s for sure. I suppose I’m making some sort of progress. Working on the range of motion and such, and I can see improvements, but only when I’m on that dadburn torture device. Once it’s off, and I’m free to move about….doesn’t happen so well. sigh… A really good night’s sleep might do me some good too but that doesn’t seem to be the norm these days. I do quite a bit of sleeping, but unfortunately, not in one chunk. An hour here, an hour there… grumps! Well, not too bad, except when the pain gets to me. And yes, there is quite a bit of pain involved. UGH! I don’t like pain. You might have to say I’m an extreme baby when it comes to pain.
The physical therapist was suppose to be here yesterday. Never showed up. Never called. Disturbing. I’m sure there is a reason for his lack of professionalism, but a simple phone call, either from him, or the company would go a long way in improving my opinion of him right now. What if I could have made plans to go out dancing?
Yeah…I see the big picture of that happening too, but still….. We could have been having company come over, and not knowing he wasn’t going to bother to show, they could have come earlier. It’s all a matter of common courtesy, right?
It would have also been nice to ask him why I’m running a fever of 101.2. He’s the one who said I didn’t need a nurse to come check on me as well as his visits, so he might want to be available when there’s a need. HUMPH. Yep, the incision is looking a might more on the red side that it should be, which might be nothing, but then again….. And me having a temp tends to put the Mr in the meat locker. I want that A/C cranked when I’m HOT. He’s wearing a jacket…..in July.
Poor man is putting up with quite a bit, on top of his own issues. Yep, we’re quite a pair right about now.
I need sleep! I’ve been trying to do without the pain medication as much as possible, mainly because I don’t much like being even more goofy than I am by nature. However, sad to say, I haven’t quite been able to get to that point yet. Usually, I’ll take ‘em for a couple of days, and then that’s it. Reckon this is a wee bit different from previous experiences. They put extra hardware in the hole, and I’m not too sure it’s adapting to it’s surroundings.
Hey….one bright spot! At least that dadburn rash is pretty much gone! Lots of Cortisone 10 and Benedryl….works wonders.
Now, if I could just get the rest of the adhesive off my bod, I’d almost be a happy camper. Do they use mega super glue on that stuff, so it takes YEARS to come off, no matter how hard ya scrub? Sheesh!
Perhaps it’s time to make another stab at sleeping? Now, if that darn cat would just leave me in peace, I might have a chance. sigh….
The Dog Is Dead
Texas executes Mexican despite White House plea
The U.S. Supreme Court refused to block Texas from executing a Mexican citizen despite a White House-backed appeal that claimed the case could affect other foreigners arrested in the U.S. and Americans in legal trouble abroad.
Humberto Leal was executed Thursday evening for the 1994 rape and murder of a San Antonio teenager after his attorneys, supported also by the Mexican government and other diplomats, unsuccessfully sought a stay. They argued that Leal was denied help from his home country that could have helped him avoid the death penalty.
You’ll excuse me if I have no sympathy for this animal. He could easily have avoided the death penalty if he had NOT murdered the 16 year old girl! It’s that simple. You don’t wanna die…..resist the crime.
This was just one more issue for our illustrious leader to make himself look the fool, siding against the citizens of THIS country, in favor of foreign criminals. I wonder why no one has noted this sort of behavior in previous presidents? Oh….that’s right….BECAUSE D’BLVIOUS IS ONE OF A KIND. Thank God. I don’t think the country could stand too many more like him.
So, in the meantime, we clothed, fed and housed this animal for 17 years or so. I wish someone would explain to me why, once the verdict and penalty were decided, why they didn’t take him out back and shoot him like the dog he is/was? And that goes for ever other illegal piece of garbage that comes over here with their perversion for children on the rampage! If Mexico doesn’t want it’s Mexican criminals treated as the criminals they are, then how about keeping them at home. YOU deal with your filthy child molesters, or we’ll do it for you. Either way, YOU need to be paying for their upkeep while they are still breathing! Child predators might be the norm for south of the border, but we don’t look upon such trash kindly around these parts.
Murdering Children
Brothers, 3 and 4, Found Dead in Car in Wisconsin
The dead bodies of 3- and 4-year-old Wisconsin brothers were found in a parked car early Wednesday morning and the boyfriend of the children’s mother was arrested, Madison police said.
The children’s names have not been released and a cause of death has not been determined pending autopsies, said police spokesman Joel DeSpain. He said investigators are treating the case as a double homicide and the boyfriend is their primary suspect.
I hadn’t planned on posting much of anything for a few more days, but after seeing this, I can not stay silent. I truly believe there is something seriously wrong with a large number of people in the state of Wisconsin. This type of horrific crime happens way too often up there. There is something lacking in a society that believes killing children, at any stage of their development, is just honky dory.
To what, or whom, are we sacrificing these children to? It is our own selfish desires? Is it pay back that we use children as tools to harm another? Just what is it in our psychological makeup that this type of crime the norm? Yes, I do equate the murder of young children with the murder of the preborn. A child is a child, and a life worthy of living.
Today’s Agenda
Try to go back to sleep for a while. 3 hours doesn’t really cut it, not does it make for a happy ol’ broad.
Wake. Brush teeth. Baby wipe bath. sigh…..
Strap on de Sade’s torture device for the first 2 hour session.
Apply extremely cold squishy liquid for a while, bottom, top, side to side. Take potent pain killer. Sleep.
Real shower! WHOO HOO! Scrub a dub dub!
Push knee and foot up and down without benefit of torture device. Sleep.
Read. Something. Anything! As long as it’s not Casey Anthony involved. And likely no politics either. Perhaps an old SciFi, or some such escape from reality.
Sleep.
Round 2 of 2 hour session with torture device, for a total of 4 hours per day (we shall see). Keeping eye on the timer, and bugging the Mr about having above mentioned frozen concoction at the ready.
Obtain unconsciousness.
Not Dead
Although, honestly, the thought has crossed my mind a time or two. The computer is typically in one room, and I’m happily ensconced in another.
Besides, I haven’t watched the news, or read a paper, or done much of anything else for that matter. So, there really isn’t anything for me to voice my opinion on at the moment…..other than the Marquis de Sade’s assistant who was here for a couple of hours this afternoon, subjecting my leg to such tortures! AIYEEEE! sigh…. I’ll leave that for another day though.
Not A Happy Camper
Let’s put it bluntly. This ol’ broad has major bitchiness attacking from all angles….and it ain’t just coming from me. Well, maybe it is, but I’m not gonna take ALL the blame. I could be nice and take it, but I don’t feel nice, so I won’t.
I made it to the hospital, on time. I already had everything filled out, and taken care of before hand. Or so I thought. I provided the info. Is it my fault the person on the other side of the desk didn’t bother to include the proper info that I provided? UGH. Well, he was a nice guy and all, but making me feel like I had screwed up at 6am is not a real good idea. Finally, they figured out someone failed to scan in the proper info from my insurance card. After many apologies, we got it all straightened out. Things started to proceed smoothly. Well, as smoothly as waiting around for hours can be. They finally got me stripped and in that ever so lovely hospital peignoir.
