No seaweed in sight today at the lake..

I blame kelptomaniacs.

It’s said to start with a bad joke…so I did.

Got back home from hospital today…all went well. Precision device (stent) inserted in carotid without a problem.
No pain at all from three incisions, they are very small. Working on getting blood pressure back to normal.
Surgery lowers it…different meds made it wonky, regular daily doses will work it back, been here before.

Glad I was grogged out most of the day.

Glad to hear you made it through with no incidents! Stay groggy for a while, you don't want to see what just happened yet. I'm trying to stay buzzed so I don't start screaming.

Had a roomie…he put on the morning news, local but still…

I haven’t watched news it seems like forever. I was not silent…matter of fact quite loud.
Harry, my roomie is a republican…not MAGA…far from it, joined in the best he could…lotsa problems.
Nurses were incensed saying it’s already getting bad in the rural and small city hospitals and clinics this will make it worse.
Then I had to crash…BP went sky high in a flash.

Settling in ok? Sounded like it last we tapped.
