My hospital bed

I am tired lots but the morphine works. Lorazepam mentally confuses. For the first time I mistook the setting if the sun and was sure it was rising. Then I watched it get darker and darker out. I looked at my phone and got confused by it too things did not make sense. I hope most of us here are getting a bit better to very much better. They put permanent drains in soon. Catfish got to jump now into some sleep. Love a aloha to all of you.

Nice photo of your friend keeping the bed warm. Your story reminded me of something that happened to my sister and I a few years ago. And I can't blame my AIH or meds because this was years before my diagnosis. We had gone kayaking and had returned the extra kayak to a friend of mine who lived way out in the "boonies" down some small country roads. I'm usually pretty good with directions and on the way back something just kept feeling wrong to me. Finally, the full moon started rising. Sure enough, what we had thought was the west side of the road was really the east and we were almost in Georgia instead of Florida. Times like those can really mess with ones perception. We couldn't believe we had gone so far out of our way and had a big laugh over our mistake. I'm still hoping you get a chance to enjoy the outdoors when it warms up and do some more hoops or cycling. Peace to you... 💕

Just re read this. It's a great story. I would have been scared to death. Those Florida waters are full of alligators. 😜👏

I guess people become acclimated to the area they live in. The only time I got really nervous was when my youngest (adult) daughter, nephew and I went canoeing on the Wacissa River at night. We could see so many alligator eyes glowing all around us from the banks. It wasn't until we felt a big bump on the bottom of our boat that we decided we had had enough and decided to turn around. We were trying to make it to a popular spring that's about a half mile or so down from the beginning of the river (the river's rise). Most alligators would never bother anyone and there are plenty in the waterways. Probably we were completely safe; it would have to be a monster to knock over a canoe with three people and why would it really want to; it was our own fear that got the best of us so we didn't fulfill our goal that time.

Wow you win. You are far more brave and crazy than me but I thought nothing of lying down in the warm sun on pine needles in the woods of Alabama. Pine forest are full of rattlesnakes. Swam with them too but not near them.

Funny, never thought of myself as brave or crazy (well, maybe a little crazy). I'd be more afraid of getting covered with ticks than rattlesnakes. Are there very many poisonous or dangerous animals in Hawaii?

Catfishjumpin in reply to smc555

Not not teally. There are few shark stories, mountain biking in the woods would be scary if I suddenly found myself in a thicket where the wild bore nest at night. The surf is a real beast though. Thanks and Aloha

I am laughing at this because we don't have anything, other than a big rat caught in a corner ( or a horny bull protecting his cows ) over here! I'm in Pendle Witch Country in Lancashire, UK. There have been mysterious sightings of a big Panther up on the Moors. ..... possibly escaped from a Zoo. Wild Boar have been seen down South & Jellyfish in the warmer waters in Cornwall. I find that it is far more dangerous in the local Supermarkets where pensioners rally at speed round the aisles in their souped-up motorised scooters! I shan't even elaborate on young mothers with prams....... gosh! Feeling great now I've got that off my chest !

I have been thinking of how you are Catfishjumpin. I really hope that you are comfortable & enjoying things each day with your family & your dog. Catfish are amazingly resilient. I have watched lots of fishing programmes but didn't know they could jump! Can they?

I did not get out this day. I hope to be in the sunshine soon with my children and dog. I raised them son age 4 until 14, my daughter, age 2 to 11. My head is full of those days of us alone, laughing, doing whatever we wished.
