Hi Friends!

It's a sunny morning today, and supposedly gonna be a hot one, between 26-28 C. As lovely as the morning is, I am not looking forward to a happy day. I have an appointment with a specialist today and I kinda already know the outcome, which is something I don't want. Surgery 馃

Have you ever went for any surgeries that they had to put you under? I hope you never had to experience. My last one wasn't good. The Surgery was a success, but coming out of anesthesia, I was apparently too chatty, and the nurse wasn't happy about it. What she doesn't know, I could hear what she was saying, in between my chattiness. To this day, I still remember. It wasn't a good feeling hearing a nurse saying so, in my very vulnerable time. I don't think anyone could help it? Coming out of anesthesia, people react differently, I would think 馃

I feel like I'm having a nervous breakdown just thinking of everything. Why do people have to get sick anyways 馃槄

What a downer is me today, hey 馃槄 You've been my family since 2017, so I felt like sharing a little, that isn't about food or garden 馃槄
