I feel the randomness coming...
First off... I was having really bad cramps yesterday and this AM I started spotting. The med I'm on, for... 3 more days is supposed to stop my period. But then when I was on it, at a lower dose my period would start up 3 days-ish when I finished. So... I have my GYN follow up on Wednesday, as well as Heme. My Hgb was 7.4, up from 7... I'm not symptomatic, in the sense where I feel tired and crappy, with palpitations and fatigability, decreased exercise tolerance. And I kinda feel like I gained a little color since the iron infusion. We'll see how my levels are when she draws blood again.
In other news I saw my derm again. Leg is better. Still itchy... But she gave me a scar cream to apply when the itching stops. Follow up in a month. I did one more application of the steroid cream and then have started the scar cream. It just feels like there is a layer of dead skin that needs to slough off. Told me to moisturize and apply sun screen. I'm not exposing it to the sun, so...
It was Marna's berfday yesterday. As I said, she asked me what I wanted to eat. Why me? She then asked if it was a Church thing. Yes. I didn't explain further. But... It made me remember something, which is weighing on me... Basically when we went to Dr. M's funeral, she received the Eucharist. I confessed to not saying anything so... Does that clear me? I mean... It's obviously weighing on my conscience. But... She's my boss. Her husband is a "Catholic". It's not like I don't pray for her, them... Anyway, we had Thai food. I had pad Thai with shrimp mostly. Then veggy egg rolls, which surprisingly weren't gross. What is that... Like it's a custard thing with fruit on top. It was good, but the cookie bottom thing was hard as a rock.
Mom went to verizon b/c we got a message that we're close to going over "our" data. I don't have a smart phone so... I looked at her phone and last time I had noticed her wifi was off, so I turned it on. Once again it was off. I don't know why it keeps turning off. I don't think she'd know how to do any of that. Anyway... Even after I keep explaining it to her she went to verizon. He told her the same thing. At least he increased the data for the month free of charge. Anyway... I think it's b/c of viber and I've seen her playing vids. I then had to explain to her anything she does on the interwebs is data and that is separate from phone and texts. "So I shouldn't answer the phone at the mall?" *sigh* "But I thought viber was free." I then had to explain... Like email is free, but the fact you have to use the interwebs... cc 7500centfish
Marna got like these plastic guards for our face masks. Dr. L doesn't like them b/c he thinks it retains CO2. Marna likes them b/c she can feel the air go out. Uh... Isn't the point of masks to keep a seal and prevent less air from going out? We're all gonna die! Either way, I'm indifferent. I only wear it when Marna asks if I'm wearing it... Uh... It's in my bag and then I put in on. It looks like a jock strap...
Started watching The Chosen with Mom. It's... Weird? How can I describe it. Well... Jesus was no where to be seen till like the end of the 1st ep. And... It gives a backstory to the Apostles. They only introduced Peter and Andrew, Matthew, Mary Magdalene. Uh... Thomas and someone else, but they don't really have a story besides being students of Jesus. But then he hasn't met Andrew and Peter yet. Matthew seems to be a geeky, nervous tax collector. Peter is into fishy business spying on other Jewish fishermen. It was slow to start. Only seen 3 eps. Ep 3 was good... Some kids find his camp and he starts preaching to them. Kinda like... Fan fiction. Overall I don't know how to feel. Let's see where it goes.
Notes.
Watched the Cordial Catholic / Gospel Simplicity vid. It seemed like it was a bunch of questions from GS for CC, but... They didn't really ask the Qs, CC just kept talking. And... It seemed very one sided and not a convo. It was weird. But lol... So, as I said, GS is an evangelical who wants to be ecumenical and include everyone. But then... He made a vid about going to Catholic bible study with his uncle and that made him try out Catholic Mass. B/c of that, as he said, his channel has become a place for Catholics to hang out. Lol. CC apologized b/c he got caught in the middle of the Rad Trads vs Normies... He did say all the Catholics are waiting for his John 6 commentary. Exactly. Lol!
This weekend is Confirmation at the parish. Fr. I called out invited those who aren't confirmed to seek it out. He said a lot of people don't realize till they try to get married that they were never confirmed.
I've been thinking... I guess... I had a dream where I emailed all the local parishes asking if they were available for Spiritual Direction. In addition, Sr. Pat said she was gonna ask someone at St. H, but I don't know where that went, so... And Fr. I recommended the Seminary. Anyway... One of the things Sr. Pat said I needed to do was connect with my parish. Was thinking... When the pandemic is over to maybe see if I can volunteer with RCIA. But then again... I'm mostly talk no action.
This week's CSYSK. It was really about people church hopping and not really about not going to your geographical parish. But once again, it gets me thinking... OK, we used to be in the borders, then we moved. It's still the closest parish, but we're not in the borders. If we're going by town then it's St. M's. If it's like a box, like St. E's is... Then it's one south and... It's just a completely different demographic.

Discussed getting a smart watch with 7500centfish. I honestly just want a cool / changeable display. I don't want to be connected. The HR monitor would be useful. I also use my stopwatch on a daily basis. Other than that... I was eying a refurbed samsung. B/c I'm team samsung. 7500centfish is looking into garmin. I'd use my berfday gift card from Marna for half of it...
I want 7500centfish to bring poops up for the blessing of the amnimals. Ginger needs to meet Bruno!!!
