Tweety hope that the fevers are gone

Stars I'm glad you got some peace a quiet, hopefully he'll change his tune and be more compliant with his meds.  Cool that the birds come to you,  I can't  have a bird feeder here

NJ22 that's neat that you'll be training as a master gardener.  I've been having some similar feelings

Ado I've done cross stitch before

Dianah a play sounds fun

Skipped bird watching yesterday as it was too cold and windy.  Probably done with bird watching until the Spring

Stayed in instead and did laundry and baking.  Started on the knitting project for a hat, but finding the interest isn't there.  Might go back to embroidery and other sewing type projects

Took dad out to lunch for a belated birthday,  then worked on the presentation for the political group.  Exercised and watched Svengoolie, the movie was OK

Felt a tad empty yesterday, like I didn't have enough to do.  Perhaps a results of the breakup?

Today will do the cooking before church.   After church not sure what I'll do, except more exercise and more work on the presentation.   Will find something to do

Another cold day, currently 16, will only get up to 25 today

that's a cool-looking bass. Twin B and I also have ukuleles that we were learning along with a group that was part of the New Horizons Band at the University. But since Covid we haven't been back to the New Horizons Band. And we haven't practiced. We got them out the other day and it was like starting all over. I have a borrowed flute because through the moves my flute has been misplaced. Each boy has a trumpet. Somewhere there's even an old brass sousaphone that Hubs got when his high school was getting rid of it. I wish I had more skill but I do enjoy making music.

10:30 PM Picked him up at the emergency room. Five staples on the back of the head, and he's ill as a hornet. So, thanks Tweety, because the hep enceph explains a lot of this. To Dr tomorrow>>>>>

This.  Same with me!  Dh is more skilled than I, but we have fun doing music.

Ill?  As in, nauseated?  I gather this is all part of the hep enceph.  Hugs to you, No Stars.  Looking forward to hearing about tomorrow's visit and decisions.

And after we got home he told me he signed out against medical advice. Nice, huh? They wanted to keep him there overnight for observation because of the blow to his head. If I have to bodily drag him to his appointment tomorrow, he's going. 

I'm exhausted (gee! Really?) I told him, "NO MORE!" He said, "I hope so." I told him he had to do more than hope, because that won't get it done.

Is it true that insurance won't want to pay if a patient leaves AMA?

Uh-oh...hadn't thought of that! Guess I'll break the news to him tomorrow! YIKES!

Hubby brings all this *** on himself. He'll probably squawk like crazy about this particular ER bill! (I can hardly wait to listen to THAT diatribe!). I told him earlier tonight not to talk crossly at me, or get mad at ME, because *I* didn't have anything to do with what occurred tonight.

By "ill" I meant extremely Ill-tempered, as in the expression "ill as a hornet" ...they sting when they are po'd. No nausea, no vomiting. And NO memory of what happened or how. Denies having had more than 'a little' of the vodka he had (maybe 5 oz?) Denies having had any xanax. 

I'm going to attempt to sleep now...........
