Journal, Cannabis and Tramadol

Today was a good day for me. But first, the boring stuff. Let’s talk about the medical.  Since the VA had my Tramadol prescription, they require a urine test occasionally. My urine test came back positive for cannabinoids. So now my prescription has been cancelled. No one told me. No one asked about my pain status.  Lucky for me #1 cannabis will either manage your pain or you will not actually care that you have it. The added bonus is that it reduces inflammation, an RA killer. Lucky for me #2 every month I took the left over tramadol pills and put them in another container, enough to last a long time.  What I have been doing lately is take one tramadol in the morning and the two at dinner time. My RA is tough in the morning, but it can be tougher in the afternoon. Fortunately, I have just about gotten the dose correct.

My will is a work in progress with a visit to a lawyer next week. Today I got the deed. I have lists to make. And this is my week for lawyer things. My last will was with my husband.  Definitely, I need a new one.

So I got involved in this weeks work, I was late starting a beef stew I was planning. There were no potatoes so I decided I needed to make bread. All ingredients in the bread machine, plugged it in and I had no opportunity to change from a three hour setting to a quick bread. There  was no way to change the setting. Dinner was in an hour. After the mixing period, I worked the dough, added flour and molded rolls on a cookie sheet. When the oven reached 400 degrees, I baked them. Dinner had fresh bread with the stew plus a great salad made by my son. Amazingly all worked out, the stewl and the rolls. Satisfying.

In the US most of us think Zalinsky is a hero. He was a hero in the oval office, where Trump must of missed the rule about when having guests in your home. Makes is all look bad. The Oscars were fun. Well  done this year.  This was the first time the Oscars were streamed. Worked mostly.

Woman, friend, mother, RN, photographer, gardener, writer, researcher, observer, swimmer. Pretty much the same as everyone else with my own little twist to things. RA, and three cancers and counting. Life is good despite the obstacles. It's worth the ride just to see the infinite variations of the human spirit.
