The original change schedule was every 12 weeks. Then they went to 10. This one clogged at 8. The urologist at the hospital threw out changing every 4 weeks and carrying a replacement stent with them in the event they end up at a new hospital that hasn't seen his set up before. He's basically getting kidney infections that block the stent. How to prevent kidney infections when we all walk around with some level of bacteria in us and a stent that drains outside his body is what no one seems to be able to solve.
118.8 - down .2 from the 5 day streak LOL
Our group all seems to like staying rooted! I worked for the same company in one capacity or another for 39 years. I was married to deceased DH for 38 years. I have kept my maiden name as part of my name for my entire life LOL.
We started to watch a good movie on MAX last night: We Live in Time. At one point the wife who has a cancer which has recurred has her hair shaved off before the chemo can make it fall out. Brought back when I took DD to the hairdresser to do that because clumps were falling out. I was crying so DH turned it off. I told him that I didn't mind feeling the feels but he was uncomfortable. I will have to finish the movie on my own.
For once no assigned activities though we do have a Super Bowl party to attend tonight. Possible daytime plans after our Justice walk are going to a venue with outdoor music or to the beach club to vegetate to the sound of the ocean. Now that we are in high season it will be very busy there so we have to go early to get a good spot.
We are just getting back from breakfast (the 7:30 bus was prompt). Justice walk next. Have a sustainable Sunday!

Wow that's a lot to have going on! A three hour daily drive and lots of company! I'm so impressed that you fixed your own shower. And that totem pole does sound like a must have.
There isn't any way to avoid your Father having these clogged stents? They can't be changed proactively?

Your body needs to adjust from being sick. It will settle down.

Since you had this occur and your DD had a difficult time a couple of years ago at close to the same age do you ever wonder if it was caused by the same thing. Maybe a major shift in hormones?

I sometimes get a feeling of foreboding as well and it haunts me for a day or a few. Often after a while I realize there is a vague memory of something way in the past which is prompting it. But not always.

Sounds delicious - I make mine a bit mashed and a *****unky but I bet DH would like it more chunky. Interesting that you used some canned tomatoes for flavor... And no cilantro. I never heard the trick about the pits - great idea!

Very cool! You will need a leather jacket though LOL.
