Rant #3,951: Get Back

Well, mission accomplished, at least for right now.

Yesterday, I got that KUB test done, and hopefully, it will come up clean.

It should not take that long to get the results back, and I am wishing for the best.

Nothing else is new on the horizon beyond that, but I do have a followup doctor's appointment on Friday morning, so I should be told where I stand on that morning.

I don't want to even think about the "I can't stand up for falling down" thing, so I hope my standing comes out good.

Then we--my doctors and I--can attack the obvious thing that is wrong with me, and really start me on the road to good heath.

Nothing much else is going on here, although it looks like the weather is, finally, getting better.

In my neck of the woods, the sun is out, the temperature is up, and the gloom and doom for the past few days is over.

But I have to take into consideration my son's work schedule.

Let me explain.

It seems that every time he works, he runs into horrid weather.

He worked the entire past weekend, and where we were, it rained, and rained and rained some more.

Just prior to that, when we actually reached 98 degrees on the thermometer, he also worked, and he needed constant gulps of water to keep going--

I even gave him a bottle of water when I came to pick him up, and he had to buy water at work to keep himself hydrated.

I mean, he works outside all day, you would think that they would give him water, but I guess not.

Anyway, that is the nature of his job, he enjoys it, so I can't really complain, not after all he went through to get this job.

Me, I just don't have the energy I once had.

Heck, on Monday night, I think I fell asleep at 9 p.m., so I missed the New York Knicks game, where they beat the Cavaliers and are going into the NBA championship series for the first time in 27 years--

And vying for their first NBA championship since 1973.

I was just too pooped.

I felt it the entire day, and it did not let up in the evening, it just knocked me out.

During all of these processes, procedures and surgeries, I have not been able to take any vitamins, because they are considered to be blood thinners, so I think I might be overly fatigued because I can't take these vitamins.

I go through spurts where I feel strong, and then I feel like I fell off a cliff.

I am hoping that once I can get my vitamins back in my system, I can get back to where I should be.

Thus, I am still not 100 percent, maybe 85 percent or so.

But hopefully, I am getting better.

I have too much on my plate to slow down, but my body is telling me that I am slowing down whether I like it or not.

So for now, all I can say is--

"Let's Go Knicks"--

And we will leave it at that.
