I lost the words

Originally posted 2019-06-21 17:37:19. Do you know how hard it is to grieve with someone around you watching you every second of the day? I know I will miss this one day when he’s gone but I feel like I can’t do what I need to do for me in order to “protect him” Today in 2018 my mother lost her fight. She when down quick but not without fight. Things lay on my mind…

Update to medical issues

Originally posted 2014-06-19 19:51:22. I have a surgery scheduled…finally. He will go in and see what it is and go from there. Once I find out what it is and if he needs to remove anything, fix anything, etc…then my daughter will be there. My husband will be a phone call away. We can’t afford for him to take a day of work off. Our health insurance is through his employer and is based off…

It was one furry day

Originally posted 2020-09-04 09:00:37. Like father like son 🤣A man and his dogs It is now official, the two strays have been added to our already furry family. They had their veterinarian appointment yesterday and got their shots, rabies, etc. Bowie (aka heavy chevy ) still has some growing to do 😳 it’s crazy that he is 10 pounds lighter than Chewy it’s hard to believe. Bowie has a skin infection on top of allergies…

June 8 2014

Originally posted 2014-06-08 17:29:26. It is Sunday morning here in the Carter home. Daughter volunteered at a disabled/special needs baseball game on Saturday and well the rest of us were at home. We took the opportunity to literally do nothing. But that also means since nothing was done yesterday it has to be done today. Bad thing is this pale skin Irish girl will have to do some serious covering up when I go outside…

Stuck in limbo status

Originally posted 2014-06-03 13:47:39. Finally! I have someone going to bat for me. Thank Goodness because this is getting so frustrating. Plus when you get bills for $1900.00 for a hospital visit that resulted in nothing for you it gets even more frustrating. One of them has already gone into collections but what do you do? They call me and say they need a certain amount for it to be a payment arrangement but I…

Unexpected

A few days ago I had what I thought was just a follow-up appointment to discuss how a new medication was working for my bladder issues. After being called back they put me in a room to have a transvaginal ultrasound done. I didn’t recall needing to have this done but I wasn’t necessarily opposed to it because of my history of ovarian cysts. So… got the ultrasound done and then put in another room…

New journey ahead

Originally posted 2014-05-29 16:26:26. A new journey awaits. My husband finished his CDL class and is officially a licensed commercial driver, well at least on paper. He just needs to find the right job/company. We live in NC so hopefully he can find one he likes and can help him adjust to civilian life. He has only been out of the Marine Corps for one year and it hasn’t been the easiest of transitions. The…

Like marks on a bedpost

By the way, the pic isn’t of my ankle. Look… I thought I would be able to get through the year relatively scot-free where it comes to surgeries… but luck wasn’t in my favor. Well I guess it would depend on if I go through with it or not. So I go to the foot and ankle specialist this morning. My right ankle/foot needed a bit more looking into since the prp session. Granted the…

She’s so picky

Originally posted 2022-03-11 15:54:50. Saoirse is such a picky eater, much less a picky dog in general. Must be from her being hit by a car in her young development. Or maybe it’s just Saoirse. There are times when she sniffs her food and walks away then the next day she’s eating some of it. Maybe she’s in pain and not hungry. Maybe she doesn’t particularly like the food we purchased. I don’t know but…
