Goings on.

Sorry I haven't been around lately.

I've been dealing with some health issues with my blood pressure, insomnia and just an overall shitty disposition. I've been neglecting my health for too long and I'm paying for it. Lately, I've been trying to get things back in order. When the body isn't working right it seems the brain doesn't want to work either.

I've been watching the news with a detached morbid curiosity but I'm not sure what to make of it. There might be a light at the end of the tunnel but at this point I don't want to get my hopes up.

Hope everyone is hanging in there.



Oh yeah my daughter said she wanted a video of Tom and Jerry dancing to Elvis, so I had to oblige.

Sorry you haven't been well. Sucks.
Take care of yourself. No one else can right?

You still have a sense of humour anyway - Tom & Jerry to Elvis.

Kinda figured you must have been feeling poorly to be gone for so long. Hope you find the path back to good health. Welcome back.

I had similar problems Hammer, I was telling my doctor that I was taking care of this , and taking care of that , and he said "who's taking care of you ?" I spent the next year getting myself back to where my health should be. Good luck.

Yep, if you don't look after your body it'll totally f**k with your mind.

Fight the good fight, Hammer.

Sounds like a tonnage/middle age issue. Let me know if I can help. And for damn sure, take care of yourself. We don't give a shit, but that little girl does.

High blood pressure can really mess with your brain. We've been dealing with the same issues with my husband since May. Things are getting better now, but it's been a rough ride.

I think a Glenn Beck style video while looped on drugs discussing your hemorrhoid surgery gone bad is a great idea!

Kidding!!!Get well brother

your health and family should always come first, hammer - we love you and want you around more, but you need to take care of yourself.

Take it easy. There is only one of you and a number of people counting on you.

Get it fixed and see you soon.

Killer! There's always time for Tom and Jerry. Only my fav was when the Mammy would chase after them. Loves me some non-PC humor.

Hammer,

You and I re fighting the very same thing. My BP is bouncing all over, and I'm either on the couch feeling terrible, or on the couch feeling Great! LOL.

Prayers for you my friend. E-mail if ya want to chat. I'm still looking at going back to work at Urgent Scare, but I think I'm going to have to go somewhere else in the Hospital system when I get fixed up.

I understand- The last thing you want to do is sit down and be funny or take the time to put together a good post. I wish you a speedy recovery, and know that you are sorely missed. However- Your priorities, like mine are Family First!

Your Bro,

John

curl up on the sofa with a blanket, comfort food and relax.. the worlds not going anywhere yet and neither are we.
I Know what you mean about stress and BP, the news is enough to send me for the blood pressure cuff these days.

I know what you mean about getting a block on what to write about. I find myself wanting to rant about so many things but in reality, people have enough troubles without reading on my blog also, so in due course I will find some humor to lighten the day.
Thanks for the tom and jerry, I loved that as a kid..

Have 'em check for sleep Apnea. I have hypertension too and the apnea came along as a package deal. I have a CPAP machine that pressurizes the airways so they don't collapse and I can actually sleep through the night.
