2019 began with a bang

HAPPY NEW YEAR  2019

So apparently the last 6 months are all about hubby lol, he recovered from the blood disorder thank goodness that is good news for sure, he can have a flair up at anytime so we just have to watch for signs. Then he got back to work for 4 days had two off and on the first day he was off our car died, I had no idea what was wrong all the lights and radio worked but when you tried to start the car nothing happened. It turns out our car alarm was on and draining the battery, see the fuse for the light pod that shows the alarm is on was blown so once we replaced the fuse we could see the lights going so got a new battery and then had to figure out how to turn the alarm off took a couple days to figure it out but got it done, in the meantime hubby had to walk to work because the car wasn't fixed yet so off he goes Thursday he gets home from work and says well I am tired but the walk wasn't that bad. Friday comes and he gets ready for work Set's off walking at 3:00 pm and phone rings at 3:15 pm it's my hubby and he tells me he just got hit by a car, well I freaked out of course was about to hang up and run to the end of the block but he tells me not to bother the ambulance is almost there and he will be gone by the time I got there, so off to the hospital he goes. That was the longest day ever because I got no news of what was going on and by 7pm I was ready to walk to the hospital so I called and turns out he was in a cab and on his way home. He has no broken bones just a lot of muscle and tissue damage thank god he didn't hit his head cause he rolled himself but still he was in and still is pain. It's been a week now and he is walking with a cane feeling a bit stronger everyday and the swelling of his chest, arms and leg has gone down. We are very glad that this is all that happened it could have been so much worse cause she threw him about 10 feet, but he is recovering very frustrated as heck because he just wants to get back to work but he is alive and that I am so grateful for even though he is driving me crazy being home basically for the last 6 months lol. I am doing okay mostly, being winter time my anxiety and depression is always high but I have had to much to do for him that I haven't had time to think, the last 3 days have been a bit harder because I have been able to sit and relax and think about stuff like how are we going to pay the bills? rent? food? and all the medical things he will need. We have talked to a lawyer to get an idea of what to do next but we haven't signed anything it's so damn hard to know what to do, I have some tell me talk to ICBC and then others saying don't talk to them get a lawyer, at this point as soon as I start talking about what to do my anxiety kicks in and I get nauseous and can't deal, so I have taken a break for the weekend and will start again on Monday trying to figure things out but if I could have one wish I sure would love it if someone would take this part on for me I just want to make sure my hubby is covered for whatever he needs and be fare also. So hopefully things will go better next week and this is also the last thing all year for hubby lol......

Great News

I am so happy and excited to say that my hubby's platelets are back up above 150, the best Xmas gift I could ask for, the next step is to go ask his doctor when he can go back to work and then off he goes. The hematologist said he will have this disorder for the rest of his life but that other people have had it and it has never shown up again, so we are hoping that is how it goes with Dean. He will have to be careful of lifting heavy things and if he has a bleeding nose that does not stop he will have to go to the hospital but we are trying not to think about that and just hope for the best, if it does come back then he will be on disability for the rest of his life, it will be hard but we will adjust. I am trying to get things set up for winter around here, today I am going to take a picture of our new siding and send an email to all my family cause they all want to see the new stuff lol, we as a co-op are very happy with the color and product. My doves are driving me crazy today I think it is a close the door and let them out for a bit day, they have wings clipped so they cant fly to much but they usually go and visit with the rabbit's for awhile, eat some of there food and drink there water hahahaha the rabbit's actually like them so that is a bonus, I can't let my lovebird out with them I am afraid he will bite them if he gets the chance so he comes out on his own, he also goes to see the rabbits and wants to be friends but his high pitch chirp doesn't make the rabbit's happy so they usually chase him out of there pen. Well I better get my butt in order I have to go to town today for a couple things, hope everyone is well  chat soon.....

Just random stuff

Morning, woke up to banging on the walls again, the guy's are here putting on our new siding so all I have heard for the past week is tap tap bang of putting nails in, I will be so happy when they are done. I love the new color will brighten up this place a lot and next spring they will be painting the stucco, this place will sure look good outside, now I just have to fix inside lol. I am supposed to get a fake wall for the one wall in my living room because the firewall has cracks but I have been waiting for over two years now so not counting on it.  The unit that burned last summer is almost ready for new people and I am going to go have a look later today as much as I don't want to because it is all new in there and I am stuck with 17 year old crappy paint, they will pay for paint and rollers but I have to do all the work and I am just not able to do it alone, so I am stuck but I am starting to wash the walls tomorrow and I might even take the doors off the cupboards and sand them down, I want to take all winter and prep everything so I can start to paint little by little next spring. Well I have animals calling me to clean there cages so I better run, hope everyone is having a good day..
