YESTERDAY, I RECEIVED A PAINTING DONE OF ME AND BANKSY AND AN OWL THAT LIVES IN MY GARDEN UNBEKNOWNST TO THE ARTIST WHO HAILS FROM SPAIN!
PLEASE MAKE CERTAIN YOU HIT THE VOLUME ICON (RIGHT LOWER CORNER) AFTER YOU TAP THE ARROW IN THE MIDDLE OF THE PAINING! WHAT IS SO INCREDIBLE BESIDES THE PAINTING IS SHE HAS NO IDEA I LISTEN TO PAVAROTTI ALL THE TIME!!
THIS SONG IS A FAVORITE OF MINE!
THIS MADE MY DAY AND I HAD TO SHARE!
IF YOU ARE ON INSTAGRAM AND LIKE HER WORK PLEASE GIVE HER A FOLLOW!
A LITTLE UPDATE ON MY HEALTH:
I HAD A REACTION TO THE MEDICINE FOR THE LADY WINDERMERE OR MYCOBACTERIUM AVIUM AS IT IS KNOWN.
I STOPPED TAKING MEDS AND AM RESTING MY BODY AS I WAS TERRIBLY ILL THE MONTH OF FEBRUARY.
LUNG DOCTOR SENT ME TO G.I. DOCTOR FOR ENDOSCOPY AND COLONOSCOPY AS HE FEARED THERE WAS SOMETHING ELSE IN PLAY HERE!
THEY FOUND MILD INFLAMMATION IN MY STOMACH AND FIVE POLYPS IN MY COLON THAT WERE ADENOMAS.
THEY WERE NOT CANCER YET BUT CAN BECOME; SO OUT THEY CAME!
LUCKY ME I GET TO GO BACK FOR ANOTHER COLONOSCOPY IN SIX MONTHS!
I NEED TO GET BACK TO MY LUNG DOCTOR AFTER I RE-COOP A BIT.THE GI DOCTOR SAID HE FOUND NOTHING TO EXPLAIN MY WEIGHT LOSS (OVER 50 POUNDS) NASEAU AND DIARRHEA.
THERE IS A POSSIBILITY IT COULD BE IRRITABLE BOWEL SYNDROME SO HE SUGGESTED A PROBIOTIC AND A LOW FODMAP DIET.
He did recommend the ANTIDEPRESSANT MIRTAZAPINE for nausea and weight loss!
A FEW OF THE SIDE EFFECTS OF THIS ANTIDEPRESSANT LISTED BELOW.
Dizziness, drowsiness, lightheadedness, increased appetite, weight gain, dry mouth, or constipation may occur.
SINCE I ALREADY EXPERIENCE DIZZINESS ON OCCASSION, DROWSINESS ALL THE TIME FOR YEARS AND LIGHTHEADEDNESS FOR AT LEAST THE LAST FIVE YEARS I TOLD HIM A FLAT OUT NO THANK YOU!!!!
MIND YOU THIS GI DOCTOR SPENT 10 MINUTES TALKING TO ME ON THE TABLE BEFORE PROCEDURE AND MAYBE 10 TO 15 MINUTES BEFORE THAT LOOKING INTO MY COMPUTER FILE!
MEANWHILE, I FOUND A FUNCTIONAL DOCTOR WHICH A FEW OF YOU HAVE BEEN SUGGESTING FOR YEARS!
HER FORMS SHE SENT WITH QUESTIONS TO FILL OUT WERE VERY, VERY GOOD I THOUGHT AND OUR PHONE CONVERSATION WAS VERY PRODUCTIVE!
SHE IMMEDIATELY HAD THOUGHTS OF WHAT WAS GOING ON!
ALL MADE LOGICAL SENSE TO ME TOO!
I STARTED ON A REGIME OF HERBS THIS PAST SATURDAY.
I ONLY TOOK THE MORNING PILLS TO END UP DIZZY AND IN BED FOR THE REST OF THE DAY WITH VOMITING AND DIARRHEA!!!
I HAVE CONTACTED HER AND PLAN B WILL START THIS COMING SUNDAY.
STAY TUNED!!
I STARTED DOWN THIS PATH ON November 25,2020 BY WRITING MY MEDICAL DOCTOR TELLING HER I WAS CONCERNED DUE TO THE WEIGHT LOSS AND THE LACK OF APPETITE.HERE WE ARE ON MARCH 10,2021.I HAVE LOST ANOTHER FIVE POUNDS SINCE NOVEMBER.
MEANWHILE WHILE WE WAIT FOR A CURE SHALL WE DO SOME SHOE SHOPPING!
I BOUGHT THESE BIRDIES SHOES RECENTLY………THEY ARE CALLED THE SWIFT IN GOLD SIZE 8.5
I KNOW THEY LOOK SILVER HERE AND IN REAL LIFE TOO!
BUT THEY CALL THEM GOLD!
I FORGOT WHEN I ORDERED THEM I GO DOWN A SIZE ALWAYS…….SO IT SOULD HAVE BEEN AN 8 I ORDERED.
I WORE THEM TWICE.SO THEY ARE DIRTY ON THE BOTTOM OF THE SOULS.
I DID NOT MAKE THE CONNECTION UNTIL YESTERDAY WHEN I WAS TROMPING THROUGH A PARKING LOT AND THEY WERE SLIPPING OFF MY HEELS!
WHO WOULD LIKE THESE SHOES?
You should wear a size 9 in a shoe.
I WILL MAIL TO YOU AS A GIFT!!
I DON’T THINK I HAVE EVEN PAID FOR THEM YET SO LETS NOT TELL THE ITALIAN!!!
I DO NOT THINK FIRST COME FIRST SERVE WORKS HERE!
SO WRITE ME EITHER IN THE COMMENTS BELOW HERE OR AN EMAIL WHY I SHOULD SEND THE SHOES TO YOU!
IT CAN BE THREE WORDS OR LESS!
JUST GIVE ME A REASON TO PICK YOU!
MY EMAIL IS:IOLACONTESSA@GMAIL.COM
THAT TRANSLATES TO ……I THE COUNTESS AT GMAIL.COM
I THINK I HAVE ALREADY SHARED THAT STORY WITH YOU HERE ON THE BLOG?
THE ITALIAN TOLD ME I NEEDED A SECRET CODE NAME!
TO SET UP THE EMAIL ACCOUNT!
I HAD NO IDEA THE WHOLE WORLD WOULD SEE IT!
THAT FIRST LETTER IN THE EMAIL IS AN EYE BY THE WAY!!!
AGAIN I WANT TO THANK NUNILO IN NORTHERN SPAIN FOR HER PAINTING OF MYSELF AND BANKSY!
HERE SHE IS!
SHE REMINDS ME OF SOMEONE BUT I CANNOT PLACE WHO?
THE CLOSE UP OF BANKSY IS SO INTERESTING TO ME TO SEE THE STROKES AND DIFFERENT COLORS!
I HOPE I PUT A SMILE ON YOUR FACE AND IF YOU HAVE NOT HAD YOUR COLONOSCOPY YET DO SCHEDULE ONE AS IT DOES NOT HURT AT ALL!TRUST ME I HAVE TWO UNDER MY BELT IN MY 60 YEARS OF LIVING!THE JUICE YOU DRINK THE NIGHT BEFORE IS NOT AN ITALIAN SODA OR PINK LEMONADE BUT CAN BE DONE!IT’S IMPORTANT TO YOUR HEALTH.
HEALTH IS EVERYTHING BELIEVE YOU ME!
COME MARCH 17,2021 I WILL HAVE STAYED HOME ONE FULL YEAR!
NOW IT SEEMS I AM EVEN MORE VULNERABLE WITH THE LUNG ISSUE!
MAYBE IT’S TIME TO PACK IT IN AND GET COVID AND BE DONE WITH IT!
I HAVE HAD A GOOD LIFE!
