2014 Cold Start…

This has been one long, cold, snowy Winter!!  I am very sick  and tired of this crap…

Here we are over 1/2 way through April still snow on the ground.  Looks like starting Saturday it is suppose to be in the 60’s and right on through next week.

The end of 2013 certainly did not go as I had expected to…started  of with a colonoscopy that 17 polyps were removed.  Two weeks later had to go to ER with gastric bleeding.  Was in ICU twice during my 10 day stay, 11 pints of blood, 3 more colonoscopy’s later I got to go home on New Years Eve!  Did I forget to mention dialysis?  That too began in the hospital and will now continue until they slam the oven door closed.  3 times a week, 4 hours a day with a 30 minute drive to the Center each way with all the other odds and ends averages 6 hours/day.  The only positive is all of the DaVita Marshfield staff are wonderful.  They are all caring, compassionate and understanding.  If there is a “silver lining” everyone there has my respect and admiration… 

On  the plus side, after 2 years, 2 denials and heading to Judicial review.  The day before the review in Wausau the Judge approved my SS Disability, with back pay to November 2012.  Which this was only 6 months short of original filing in April of 2012.

Let’s see…what else?  In February on the way to dialysis a deer decided to commit suicide by use of my Trailblazer.  Had to replace the entire bumper, driver side fender and door.  All in all $3500 worth of damage.

Hopefully it starts to warm up soon, would like to clean up from the winter and be able to enjoy spring.  Guess that just remains to be seen.
