So much for this going to bed at 10 each night. I really need to start soon. I feel pretty crappy, but I feel good for the fact I have been cleaning for a few hours straight until now. Unfortunately it was just the everyday chores that have built up. My guy friend I used to work with amazes me with how he has to have his home perfectly in order & cleaned all the time, my brother is the same way. I'm sitting here & have been listening & watching "The People's Court", it's such a good show! Are they real people or actor's? I had to write because this is something that has been on my mind for years...My Dad's health has been going downhill fast in the past couple of years. He looks worse everytime we see him . Now, after constant questioning & care from my brother, Priscilla (his girlfriend), & me, he's finally been seeing different specialist doctor's. This last one a couple weeks ago put him on a newer drug called "byetta" (I need to look more into what's it's about). It's to help heavier people lose weight by suppressing their appetite. My dad said he couldn't barely eat half of his pork chop. I don't think I've heard that once in my life. He's been doing well with that so far. My phone got disconnected earlier today before 5. During that time my dad was calling with no answer. He's in the hospital for at least 3 days for extensive testing for his heart. He says he feels fine, he wanted to go to lunch right after the appointment. The doctor said he had to be admitted right away. My mom (dislikes my dad a lot, can't stop bitching about him years later), she said at my brother's graduation to be a paramedic this past May, my dad looked like he could die any moment. She kept telling my brother & I to spend as much time with him during this past visit as much as possible, cause it might be the last time we see him. I finally got this out of my head temporarily & was content my dad is taking steps to get healthier & take care of himself, & now he's in the hospital. There's just so many questions. This point in my life seems like the busiest time ever, worse than Christmas. I gotta go to sleep. I'm getting my hair cut & highlighted at 11 a.m. I love the fresh haircut feeling for the first week.
