Guess What?

February 19, 2013 – I’m sick!

I used to get colds fairly often when I was younger, now they are relatively rare – thankfully! I haven’t had the flu in longer than I can remember.

My colds generally fall into one of a few different categories.

#1. There is the dreaded dry hacking cough that goes on 24/7 for about four or five days. I cant take cough suppressants due to a sensitivity to dextromethorphan – the DM in pretty much everything on the market. So I generally drug myself stupid with sinutab extra strength and a glass of wine …

(318/366) One Day at a Time

(318/366) One Day at a Time

November 13, 2012 – Hospitals aren’t fun places for people to visit, but they are even less enjoyable for those who are lying in the beds and wondering when they will get to go home.

My earliest memory of a hospital was when I was very small, probably around five or six years old, maybe younger. We went to visit my Great Grandmother in the hospital and an elderly woman stopped me int eh hallway and was so happy to see me. She touched me and held my hand and told me how much she had missed seeing me. I …

(251/366) Vertebrae

Sept 7, 2012 – OK, technically the title should be vertebra since there is only one, but I used the plural since I was at the chiropractor today and he put mine all back in line again after a long weekend of riding and two days on the rivers seining salmon. I needed to be realigned and I feel so much better for it.

The first time I went to a chiropractor was in 1987. I was an apprentice at a hair salon, and on boxing day I threw something out so badly it brought me to my knees. I …

(177/366) Ice Pack and a Pain Pill

June 25, 2012 – I have no idea what I did. I wish I had a good story. But the truth is that I just woke up Saturday and couldn’t move my neck for the pain.

It’s improving, slowly.

This getting older thing is annoying sometimes. Pains come on unexpectedly, and they don’t go away as quickly as they used to.

(122/366) Pain relief

May 1, 2012 – Kirk had the surgery on his collarbone today, he now sports a metal plate inside his body, should make travelling more interesting! We’ll find out soon enough as we are heading for France at the end of the month. But for now he has a wonderful collection of pain medications to keep the recovery tolerable.

We got the call at about 9pm last night and were told to come to the hospital for 6:30 am. I woke up to the sound of the shower and when he came out all I could ask was “And how’d …

(121/366) Emergency

(121/366) Guess where we have spent a lot of time in the past 48 hours?

April 30, 2012 – Back to the hospital today, this time the one close to home though. Neither one of us got much sleep last night, me mainly because I was so wound up after that ride, Kirk, obviously, because he was in a significant amount of pain.

Kirk was a bit better this morning, so after a coffee and a somewhat relaxed morning, we headed over to Lions Gate Hospital and went through emergency, first aid, x-rays, confirmation that the collar bone is damaged badly enough to need surgery and pins and a plate, so in to see a …

(112/366) Life is a Carnival

April 21, 2012 – On the way home from a play this evening, we saw some unusual lights near Park Royal Mall inn the Village, when we detoured to see what it was, we found a tiny little temporary amusement park set up in the parking lot.

Perception is a funny thing. Sort of like plans, they just don’t always go the way you want just because you think you can think them into going the way you want. I had planned on a dialogue about the most amazing Coldplay concert last night and the totally cool RF controlled LED …

Day 215 – Off Balance

Day 215 - Off Balance

215/365 (August 3, 2011) – I am going to be so glad after next week is over. I feel completely off balance at the moment. Not as bad as I imagine my father feels though. He has been moved into a care facility and it’s not going well. My brother is dealing with it, far better than I would be able to, but it is breaking my heart knowing how confused Dad must be. Sometimes life seems so unfair, the people who deserve the most are the ones who get shafted in the end. It’s devastating knowing that while life …

Day 296 – Hanging On

Day 296 - Hanging on

296/365 (October 23, 2010) – Thought the cold was going to leave me relatively unscathed, then my cough arrived. Damn!

There went the day, can hardly head down to the Market when I unexpectedly go into complete spasms of coughing that leave me gasping for breath with tears rolling down my face. Although it IS one way to clear a path in a crowd ;-)

So, Kirk went out to do the errands and I stayed home to give my stomach muscles their workout in privacy. Finished a book that just irritated me because I disliked it so much, but felt …

Food is life

World without us.jpg

I just finished reading an interesting book that a friend passed on to me. It’s called The World Without Us by Alan Weisman. It was quite the thought experiment and there is a website that revolves around the book (http://www.worldwithoutus.com/)

And then Kirk came home and told me about a video he saw on the CNN site yesterday. It told of toxic waste and garbage dumped in fields and on roads in Southern Italy and the impacts it was having on agriculture, animals, and human health. 60-70% of all  the food produced in the region is toxic. The …

Jamie Oliver’s TED Prize wish: Teach every child about food

If you haven’t seen it yet, turn on your TV Friday nights and watch Jamie’s Food Revolution. Unfortunately you’ve missed the first two evenings, the first of which was the most powerful so far. But some of the really shocking bits are actually in this video so you can catch up.

Food seems so simple. We eat, we are sustained. We are energized and can take on the tasks we want to complete. But so much of our food is filled with preservatives and other crap that is unhealthy for us. It simply horrifies me that it costs more to …

It’s Just a Cold!!

I have a cold. Just a cold. Not the plague. I am not Typhoid Mary. I am not spreading death and destruction with each cough. I do not have H1N1!!!

And yet, with each bark I feel eyes upon me, measuring me. Recoiling in horror.

I drove to Prince George last week. 800 km each way. By myself, feeling like a dog’s breakfast. I could have flown, but I didn’t. One reason was so I could take some things up and bring some things back that wouldn’t have been possible on a plane. 9 hours of driving while sick may …

Run for the Cure.

Sunday was the CIBC Run For the Cure and it was the first time I’ve been involved in a fundraising event since I did the Swim-a-thon…and that was a very, very long time ago. I joined a team, a small team, made up of a friend, her sister-in-law (the survivor in pink), and daughter, cousin and wife, and a friend of our lady in pink. Last year Karen only had Deb to walk with..I thought that rather criminal so decided to join in. I’m no runner, so I was on a very safe team…definitely not athletic fiends on Team Karen! …

Rebranding All Sorts of Nasties

I’m a commercial junkie. I could almost watch TV strictly for the commercials. What other media requires an introduction, a plot, a conclusion…. all in 30-60 seconds! A serious art form!

But two commercials are bugging me lately.

#1. That Mr. Clean Magic Eraser thing

#2. The Kikkoman “Umami is in all our products” thing.

Both of these annoy me because they hinge around products that, as a society, we shunned years ago. however, with careful marketing, a bit of sneakiness and a whole lot of redirection…these compounds are back in our hands and in our diets.

The Mr. Clean …

Anatomy of a Cold

I hate colds, well who doesn’t really. But I also find them rather fascinating. I never quite know what each cold will turn into. I have several variants, two of which I really, really dislike, one of which I generally despise for what it does to me.

The Silencer: I get this one from time to time and most people find it rather amusing. I wake up one morning and it feels like a wool sock has been installed inside my throat. It doesn’t hurt, but I know instantly that I have no voice. I’m not saying I have a …

Butt, butt, butt….

I can’t speak to the addiction that I know smokers have, except that it’s an expensive one (financially and physiologically). I’ve never smoked in my life, except for all that second hand smoke I’ve inhaled over the years because friends smoked. I’ve never understood the appeal of sucking horrible chemicals into one’s lungs and then sharing them with others as one exhales. I went out with a smoker or two when I was younger…yuck, hated that. They always had this stale smell about them, very unattractive. But whatever, I didn’t break up with anyone over cigarettes, I didn’t abandon friends …

Harmful Chemicals

I find it quite amazing how long some studies take to get a reaction from the masses. Take the BPA (Bisphenol-A) scare recently. A few months ago a report came out that BPA was considered to be a carcinogen. Sure, like everything else…right? Well, yes and no…this one is pretty integrated into many of our lives. What got the media attention was the fact that this chemical is present in most hard plastics, particularly those with the number 7 on the bottom. So where were these chemicals? In our drinking bottles. Here everyone is trying hard to be environmentally friendly …

Let’s get ready to Roomba!

Let's Get Ready to Roomba!

We walked into Canadian Tire the other day to pick up a $5 gas can….and walked out with a Roomba! I saw these things advertised several years ago, and all I thought at the time was “How can that thing actually work!” And promptly paid it no attention.Then I saw someone walking out of the store with one and something made me go investigate. $100 off…looked interesting. Curiosity got the best of us and we figured that if we didn’t like it, back it would go. Relatively simple plan. So we took Roomba home and plugged it in..A few hours
