Jane Austin
Jane Austin's JournalI am.
I'm 75, overweight despite a lifetime of exercise and a damned good diet.
But My breathing is awful. If I don't take my diuretics right on time, fluid will collect in my chest.
Fortunately I have a very strong heart and arteries that didn't have a spec of plaque when I had an angiogram.
Hoping for the best.
Gotta say it galls me no end that my ability to live a few more weeks is tied very closely to the whims of this ignorant lumbering fool.
This would have been a month of isolation for me
if I hadn't had to take my 13-year old Golden to the vet for what turned out to be urgent - and life-saving - surgery four days into my isolation.
I guess I took it really seriously, because I had been buying a little extra of bleach, detergent, white vinegar and other things that are now hard to get. I think I started that about six weeks ago.
I'm not usually a nervous Nellie, but I guess that Girl Scout motto really stuck with me.
Thanks to Amazon Prime and Britbox I'm well-entertained.
