Just Some Rambling

As of today, March 7th, I feel sore from sitting too long in front of this damn computer but it is my fourth day of freedom from that back/chest pain! I still don't understand Pleurisy but I do understand how painful it can be. And do they really know if that is what plagued me, at various pain levels, for near three weeks? Is there a test that confirms Pleurisy. I don't think so. We spent thousands, thankfully we have health insurance, to rule out acute issues. But no real treatment was implemented, except for my regular aspirin/ibuprofen regiment. I'm sure it was important to do those tests....but thousands of dollars to just....wait it out?
Anyway, I do feel ready to tackle some projects that I was panicking over not finishing if, indeed, I was suffering from something fatal for those first 11 days. That eleventh night, when I got down on my knees, I complained that God knew how much I had to do and how I couldn't get it done while he had a hatchet buried in my back. That 'hatchet like' pain left by the next morning after that prayer! It would be a good time to make good on that whining! Only a fool wouldn't believe that God isn't in the business of giving second chances.
Now that I'm feeling like my old self again, I'm beginning to chastise myself for hanging out on the computer for several hours of the day....and not writing in my blog, as can be attested by the monthly entries here. I could be doing more creative things or, as stated earlier, finishing projects that have been held in suspension, some, for years!
Where do I spend most of my time then? Facebook. I enjoy the interaction with friends, I enjoy some of the applications, and as I've connected with old friends from years ago, I enjoy learning, reading and seeing how life is treating everyone. It's a great medium, with a few quirks and risks from hackers, to keep connected and not to just completely disappear into my 'self trunk'...like I've a habitual life habit of doing. Hm...can I use words that way?
What am I going to do, then, today....a Sunday and I didn't even go to church. I got up, put some laundry in to wash, brewed a cup of green tee and headed straight for the computer. First a check of my AOL news homepage and then off to Facebook. Have only left my post at Facebook, twice. Once to spend some time with my grandson while his folks go see the remake of Alice in Wonderland, featuring Johnny Depp. And again, when Grandson went down for a nap and I finished up my ramblings here......
