🏮 take a day to reflect

🏮 rather than blurt out a tension fraught anecdote

We were in Emergency yesterday, from 9 AM to 2 PM

M.. had some abdominal discomfort and this culminated the week of similar though lesser pain.

Bloodwork, ultrasound, coffee and water  [ oh, those last 2 were for me ]. M.. got her drink through an IV.

Relatively, inconclusive but we needed to see a doctor for sure. AND if the family doctor was the one then bloodtests would have been in a separate place.

Advice from Doc Borenstein ' eat bland food, no spicy or alcohol ' didn't go down a treat w/ M. [boring ! ]

Saturday, in ER, started quiet [ but we didn't know that ] and as we left, we saw standing room only.

Apparently, the U.S. is sending Hershey almond clusters to the Ukraine. Good luck w/ that, b/c not everyone likes nuts.

Our wildfire season is still in full bloom. In B.C. the experts say that lightning is a major origin of wildfires there.

I'd explain today as a chill day or recovery time. Only, I seem to be having multiple recovery days. However, exercise happened and I made chicken stock [ rather than always using packaged soup.

Not a total loss
