Pat is doing somewhat better. He is still running a fever though. I will be taking him to the doctor tomorrow again! This foot of his is costing us bootoos of money even with insurance coverage. He has lousy coverage for pharmacy unless it is mail order. And in answer to Donna's question...No, Pat is not diabetic.
I guess I will have another day of running around in my nightgown. LOL

scare
Had a scare yesterday.
Pat has an infection in his foot. Tuesday I took him to the doctor and he was put on antibiotics. Yesterday He developed a red streak going up his leg. I called the doctor and he had him come in for a shot and new meds. Last night he developed a fever that went up to 104.7 before starting down. I talked to the doctor(not answering service) on the phone and he said if I did not get the fever down in an hour to take him to ER. Luckily I got it down with Motrin and Tylenol.
I was restless all night in case it came back.
I have a feeling that I will be back at the doctor Monday.

to much stuff
It has been too long since I posted. Not much and a lot has happened.
Easter came and we had a big crowd. Pat was disappointed that his daughter did not come. She blew him off by saying she had to work except I knew the store she worked at was closed on Easter. I did not tell Pat. He still feels that she blew him off. Anyway we had over 20 people here. Lots of food and fun. There was horseback riding and an egg hunt. We had 100 plastic eggs and 6 dozen dyed eggs. All was found except for 1 egg. I found a hen rolling it into her nest! LOL
The cardiac stress test came out fine. I had the myoview done. That is where they inject radioactive material in me to get a better picture. I got the results today. I was a bit upset as they did not fax results to my Doctor like they were supposed to do. So I am supposing that my chest pains were a result of stress.
I have been working on my garden. I have 3 rows of tomatoes planted. I also have bell peppers, jalapeno peppers, Brussels sprouts and broccoli planted. I am going to get seeds into the ground this week. That is, IF the ground is dry enough to re-till.
My lawnmower died. It made a loud booming backfire and now will not start. My weed eater died too. All I need to do was replace the fuel line and filter. But somebody decided that the carburetor needed looking at. So that is another dead piece of equipment. All these helpful people are creating more work for me.
I have had a leak in my kitchen sink forever. I finally fixed that myself, because somebody else fixed it and cracked the pipe.
Hot today! 80 degrees right now with sunshine!
My baby chicks are getting big. Out of a dozen I have eleven surviving. They are outside in a pen now. At night I am still putting them in the water through as the pen has no shelter yet. They also do not have the knack of perching yet. They still sleep bunched up in a pile.
Ok I am out of here. Need to do some work.
