Friday Cocktails – March 4, 2022

March 4 2022 Friday Cocktails

Friday has rolled around again and that means it is time for Friday Cocktails! TCan you believe we are already into March? It is crazy and things have been so busy. I got the heart monitor off and saw the doctor. I will share everything about that in another post with you all. It seems like this year is just flying by and before we know it, Easter is going to be here. Isn’t that crazy? One of the hardest things about this year so far has been not having the kids with me day in and day out. 

I also use a shared Google Calendar so everyone can see all of the appointments. the other day my uncle happened to be looking at them and asked why he had to see our primary care doctor two days in a row. I told he didn’t and he told me to check the calendar then. When I did I noticed the calendar said Rita – Pap Smear -Dr. Duraksi and told he that was my appointment. His was the next day and asked him why he thought he needed a pap smear. He said he didn’t but you just never know! He’s a nut!

Monitor

I spent most of yesterday at the heart clinic having various tests done. They are just to see where I am at right now with everything. Making sure things aren’t getting worse. It was a long and exhausting day if I am being honest. I also got fitted for a Holster Monitor which I have to wear for a few days.

While this is fairly easy to wear it is a pain in the butt. I can’t shower while I am wearing it. I also can’t use my electric blanket or the microwave. It is used to monitor what is going on with my heart while I am not in a clinical setting. I just go about my normal day and routine. the monitor records everything that is going on. I have to keep a log of any symptoms or whatever I am having as well.

Like I said this is more a pain than anything else. I can only do light exercise because I can’t sweat since I can’t shower. However i will endure it if it figures out what is going on and what we need to do to fix the problem.

    My health is deteriorating as I age and gained a great deal of weight as COVID kept me house bound for the better part of the past two years. I know that a sedentary lifestyle leads to poor health all around and I am sad to say that I have yet to address the issue even as pandemic restrictions are being lifted. I just don’t have the energy to get out and about or even get back to my physician to get all of the routine testing done that I put off during the pandemic. Intuitively, I know that it is a never ending cycle, the less energy I spend, the less I have to spend and so on…

    I know my health isn’t great and there are a multitude of problems, I haven’t been to the doctor in a lot of years,. I’m trying to get my situation now into some kind of way that allows me to take of me instead of just everyone else. I am keeping your and your family in my thoughts and prayers and I enjoyed the past weeks blog posts! Thanks for sharing them with me and of course for sharing the Friday Cocktails with me! Have a TGIF day!

If you're looking for a Bible that helps you under If you're looking for a Bible that helps you understand your identity in Christ and God’s purpose for your life, the *Life in Christ Bible* is a must-have! 🙏📖 As someone who's recently been diving deeper into Bible study, I’ve found this Bible incredibly insightful and inspiring.

✨ One of my favorite parts is how it emphasizes that our value comes from who we are in God’s eyes, not from what we do. Each book begins with a helpful intro—key details like date, main idea, and a timeline outline make everything easy to follow.

❤️ Plus, the words of Jesus are written in red, and I love the "I Am" sidebars with extra insights and cross-references for deeper study.

And can we talk about the quotes from Charles Spurgeon and the historical charts?! 🙌 They really help put the New Testament into a broader context. Oh, and the maps at the back are a visual treat for anyone who, like me, loves seeing the geographical routes and locations come to life.

This Bible has been a game-changer for my spiritual growth, and I highly recommend it to anyone wanting to deepen their faith. 💙

I am not normally a coffee drinker at all but when I am not normally a coffee drinker at all but when I do it is always hot coffee. I rarely, if ever, drink iced coffee. There is just something about it that rubs me the wrong way.

What about you? Which do you prefer?
