No Friday Post - Traveling

Happy Friday! 

Due to my D-I-L having to have surgery again, our family plans switched from Matt and family coming to me to me traveling to them. I am happy to have the company of another granddaughter on the trip. However, I have to travel Friday in the very cold temps after the storm. I allowed extra time to deal with possible road delays  so we did a very short leg of the trip tonight (Thursday). I have limited internet access and my computer mouse is packed.

It is likely I won't get any reviews posted for the week and maybe not even my Sunday Post.

If that is the case, I wish everyone a safe and joyous Holiday weekend!

Martha's Bookshelf Friday Pick - Delay.

This week flew by. First late nights and tiredness kept me from posting any reviews and then I managed to lock myself out of the account on Wednesday. Friday we were in Alabama for industry classes. So now I am back online with much work to catch up. 

I prepared my Friday Pick post and tried to publish it several hours ago. But Blogger is refusing to publish the post saying it "violates the community guidelines." I removed the cute image I had and link in case it had to do with those. Then I tried changing the title. Perhaps they don't like giving away books? 

I'll keep trying to figure out what they don't like about the post. Let me know is you have had this problem or have suggestions.

Friday Pick Post Delayed 9/2/2022

I am suffering through another week without internet at home. UGH.

Limited time at office as we made the move back to renovated office this week so couple days without phones and internet. We are fully online again but have boxes everywhere.
(This image is for my office - not for my blog.)

I am a good three weeks behind on legal work. Yikes!

I'll post (hopefully) over the weekend from the office. 

Thanks for understanding.

Have a GREAT FRIDAY!!

No Friday Pick This Week and Status Update

Hello all -

Just a quick [it expanded as I wrote] update on my home front. My hubby is back in hospital with continuing issues. As of a month ago he had under 30% lung capacity then his last X-ray showed that part all blocked too. They treated him for pneumonia but there will be no restoration of the rest of the lung damage. (The result of chemical damage from his work years ago.)  His condition is aggravated by heart concerns as he had open heart surgery a few years ago and has a pacemaker. He is also being treated for type 2 diabetes. Both of these contribute to the fluid retention.

The medications left his legs and arms swollen which is uncomfortable and painful. Because I am at work, no one is home with him and he was struggling just to get from bedroom to bathroom. The walker I got for him helped but he still has little strength to pull himself up and now he fears falling. No way could he go downstairs to the kitchen so I was going home at lunch to make sure he would eat something. He is frustrated and feeling like a burden on top of having to struggle to get his breath and move around. :-(  I have more empathy now for caregivers.

They put him back in hospital to try to get the excess fluids out of his body. The treating physicians have agreed he will get some therapy to keep him mobile and he will likely be discharged next week to rehab instead of coming straight home. If rehab is not helpful, we will move on to home health (Hospice) care. He is 79 (birthday 7/4/42) and part of him is ready to go be with Jesus. The other part doesn't want to leave me alone. He has been working hard the last year to pay off our mortgage and build up a nest egg as I will lose half of our household income when he dies. These are all usual end of life dilemmas.

Between caring for him and taking him to doctor's offices I am falling more behind on office work. Add to that our internet service at home stopped working a week ago so the blogging I do at night can't be done.That makes me sad and frustrated... more stressers. :-)

Sooo -- please pray for my hubby, me and our family. And please be patient regarding blog items. I'll get here when I can fit time in. 

 Meanwhile I hope everyone is enjoying spring (or autumn if applicable) and some good books!

A Friday Pick Delay Announcement - Just One Day

Hello all - I apologize that I am delaying my Friday Pick post.

I had to wear my old 30-day type contact lenses this week while waiting for the daily lenses to come in. I didn't realize there would be such a difference but there is even after just three days. My eyes are burning so I am going to go to bed.

https://www.memesmonkey.com/images/memesmonkey/e5/e5003f2b8b66b19527cb2b77da89d7b1.jpeg

I picked up my new supply of daily lenses today so tomorrow should be better. I plan to post the Friday Pick either Friday night or Saturday morning.
Thanks for understanding... See you soon!

Delay in Friday Pick 1/11/19

Friday Pick will be delayed today.
I spent four hours yesterday afternoon clearing books, boxes and furniture at my office so they can tear out carpet as they begin working on repairs.
I did over 10,000 steps - which is more than double my usual. I headed home and forgot to got by my temporary office to pick up my computer. The home computer isn't working so I borrowed hubby's to post this.
I will put the post up later Friday. Meanwhile, have a good day; stay warm and safe through the storms.

Out of Touch for a Few Days

Hi friends-

I got "buried" by a project Saturday and never left my office until 7:15am Sunday morning. We were traveling to Biloxi this weekend and my DH wanted me to get this work completed before we left.  I slept a little on the drive this morning but am still rather tired and planning on going to bed soon. I think I may be too old to bounce back quickly from an all-nighter.
So no review for Saturday, no Sharing Beyond Books on Saturday, no Sunday Words of Encouragement, and no Sunday Post tonight. I will try to get Sharing Beyond Books up mid-week but we are with family until Tuesday night. If we get back in time we hope to attend our Band of Brother's appreciation dinner to see more of the pictures from Haiti.

So - no worries. I am fine but out of touch for a few days.
I hope everyone has a good beginning to another week. :-)

Delay in Friday Book Pick Post 10-9-15

Hi all and Happy Friday.
My home power has gone out the last two nights (our whole neighborhood) for about two hours. 8pm on Wednesday and 7:45 on Thursday just as I was sitting down to work on the computer. Since the power was off we went to bed early both nights. :-)
I was up and out early for court this morning and have had a full day at work.
I hope to get the post up late tonight or early Saturday.
Enjoy your Friday everyone!

Delay in Friday Book Pick Post

Hi all and Happy Friday.
We decided to make a last minute RV trip to visit our son and family. Yesterday (Thursday) morning as I was preparing for work my Dear Hubby said "By the way, I'd like to leave when you get home from work tonight." I had to rush to clear my work desk and had no time to get Friday Post ready.
I hope to get it up late on Friday or early Saturday. Have to work on it in between visits with the family. :-)
Enjoy your Friday everyone!

Delay in Friday Pick Post

Hi all and Happy Friday.
I am away with family (son this time) and the internet is super slow. I didn't set up my hotspot since it will only be three days.
Plus my time on computer has been limited by granddaughter sleep time and DH wanting to go ride the monorail instead of sit at computer.
So I am postponing the Friday Pick today. I hope to post it later this afternoon after we have been monorail hopping.
Enjoy your Friday everyone!

Notice: Delay for Sharing Beyond Books

There will be a delay in posting SBB this week. We are set up in our camp site for this week but having some electric breaker issues. We took a family vacation (to Orlando, Disney World) with all the kids to join us soon! I will post this as soon as I can.

Delays in Postings

Hi blog friends. I'm just hopping on quickly to say all posts are currently delayed until committed Tour Review on Thursday.
I had a really rough weekend that kept me home on Monday too. No computer at all Saturday or Sunday and on Monday only half an hour checking work emails.

I am doing better tonight but heading to bed early as I have early court hearing tomorrow.
Thanks for patience and continued prayer and well wishes support.

Delay in Posting for Sharing Beyond Books

There will be a delay in posting SBB this week. My old faithful laptop has been begging to be retired. I have a new computer but haven't made the change over. Tonight old laptop plug connection decided to stop working and the battery died. Fortunately I am backed-up through Monday and there hasn't been too much more this week. My new computer and back-up drive however are in the office. So I'll pick them up tomorrow to get to my SBB spreadsheet etc. and can work on something other than a tablet/travel laptop.
Besides - for some reason I am very tired tonight and ready to head up to the bed.  So please watch tomorrow or Monday for the last SBB of 2013. :-)
