It’s a snowy day here in Colorado and I’m discussing the hospital go-bag for my upcoming surgery on the SavvySpoons podcast.

Welcome to Season 2 – The Spice of Life – SavvySpoons – Living a life of limited spell slots.

Misty welcomes you back to her podcast. Which she totally stopped recording because of a seasonal break or some other intentional reason instead of basic overwhelmed spoonie forgetfulness. Totally.

Here are some links to the tools I use to get through any length of stay in the hospital. I hope you find them helpful. I am not getting paid for anything here, just adding links to things I’ve personally found helpful over the many hospital stays.

The USB Charging Port: Useful for taking your one available power outlet and turning into enough power for your phone, ipad or laptop, and whatever else you need to combat boredom during your stay.

Soft and Cozy Hospital Sleeves: for all your IV wearing comforts. Allows you to go from sweater to tank without interfering with your IV.

Ciscle Smart Pencil: for all your time passing edoodling.

Aura Cacia Lavender Mist: Actually much cheaper than I remembered!

What do you have in your go bag?

and listen to the latest episode of Savvyspoons on Anchor.fm.

The snow is starting to fall, big fat lazy flakes that are trying to stick.
My puppy is happy at the prospect of more snow balls, as the neighboring children love to feed him snowballs through the fence.

He is also thrilled at the mudpuddles and pawprints!!

It’s puppy pawprint painting time!

His canvas was the world.

His medium? The mud.

His enemy? Cleanliness.

He is : Bear (is never) Still.

Good doctors make all the difference.

Did you know Topomax sprinkle tablets are special order and the normal pharmacy can’t fill them like anything else?

Neither did I! That is until Saturday when I was out of the medication I needed because I waited to fill it until my appointment Friday afternoon because I wasn’t sure what direction we were going next.

The pharmacy called me to tell me it would be three days before I could get the meds anywhere without a change in the script from the doctor. Now my neuro is lovely but come on. The man works long weeks. I can’t possible expect him to come in and check his messages on Saturdays.

I am telling you, he did.

Then he called me, went into my chart, changed the prescription to one the pharmacy could fill immediately, and wished me a happy weekend.

I could crochet this man a blanket.

Stay safe loves.
