Doctors promised to remove the catheter at 5AM. They were late but as I barely moved out of discomfort all night it wasn’t all that bad and they did come by to get rid of it at 8AM. Breakfast was nothing to write about. Was released at noon after I proved I could pee on my own and pass gas (what’s up with that?) but I did decide to stay for lunch before having Paul pick me up. Was fearful of more complications so I walked slowly to the pharmacy with Sam that afternoon to fill a new prescription for pain and antibiotics.
Discomfort
- Those Darned Squirrels
Old Man Fookwire is a grump who only likes to paint pictures of birds that visit his backyard. The problem is, they fly south every winter, leaving him sad and lonely. So he decides to get them to stay by putting up beautiful birdfeeders filled with seeds and berries. Unfortunately, the squirrels like the treats, too, and make a daring raid on the feeders. The conflict escalates-until the birds depart (as usual), and the squirrels come up with a plan that charms the old grump.My take: How can you not like a book where you get to say Googlie Mooglie, raise your fist and yell “Those darned squirrels”?
