June Annual Blogging Month |
This book is the place for competing in the Hall's annual blogging month of June. Entries about ordinary, mundane events and days. My life isn't that exciting! ![]() Note ▼ |
Still in pain every day. Next week on Tuesday I have to go to the hospital for a colonoscopy. My best friend is driving me since there has to be somebody with me going back home. |
In the coming weeks my GP has referred me to a specialist so my bowl problems will be addressed. It's about time! I have to wait again. |
Yay, I collected feces as early as 9 am and brought it to the nurse. I have to wait for the results. And next week I have another appointment to test my blood and urine. For the second time! The results were negative, insofar, as there was not much wrong. But I am still in pain so I keep going. I have to know what's bugging me. |
Another bad night with pain and nausea suffering from what I believe is Colitus Ulcerosa, inflammation of the bowls. For 2 months now. I did a lot of inconclusive tests and an ultrasound that confirmed the thickness of the bowls. But my GP wanted another test for feces, the third time. So, I have to collect feces before 10 am, so I can bring it to the doctor's before 11 o'clock. Alas, I can't poop on commando so it didn't happen today. Maybe tomorrow. |
I love these kinds of quiet mind-body and soul music, to channel my energy and calm down. It’s soothing for the soul and I can write while listening to it. Mantras! ![]() ![]() |

My stepmom Toos has been diagnosed with dementia a few years back. Sure she was very forgetful and had to write everything down, sure she told the same story over and over, sure she didn't remember things from 15 minutes ago. But she still lives on her own and has a full program to tie her over every week. She has a lot of help. |
I bought a parasol for my balcony which cost me 65 bucks all-inclusive. That's far better than the 1000 bucks it would have cost me to buy a new sunscreen. Delivery is next week, so I am good. ![]() ![]() |
I feel cheated but it’s probably my own fault. ![]() ![]() |
It's still hot inside, outside it's doable at 23:00 with a nice breeze. ![]() ![]() |

The last time I went to the movies I got Corona, and it took me 5 months to try that again. I used to go to the movies quite often before COVID so it was no pleasure to avoid movie theatres all together. ![]() ![]() |
