Today was a pretty easy day at school… elementary/middle – nothing crazy went on.
I subbed for the secretary today – she was out sick… I get paid better when I sub. It’s just rare.
One woman who subs occasionally for the principal came in … she was walking really slow… hadn’t seen her in awhile (principal has a couple subs if needed)
So anyway… this woman is like 5-7 years younger than me… I am not old (I always say I am cause to me ..I am – I am always the oldest now everywhere!!) I am 47.
So she begins this story… she had gone to the coast with her husband and 2 daughters… 17 & 12… the 17 yr old wants to be a nurse and is taking some nursing courses already at the local college…
Well her husband went to take a shower … and this woman went into cardiac arrest… her 17 year old daughter performed CPR on her for 7 minutes – the paramedics had come and they had to use the paddles 3 times on her… her 17 year old daughter literally saved her mother’s life!!!
She was telling us that even the seasoned nurses at the hospital were in shock because while they had done that thousands of times, they had never had to do on their own mother!! Even I am just in awe of this 17 year old!! And she said she was calm the whole time and just did what she had to do to save her mom.
Crazy story!! But even crazier this was the second time it happened!!
I asked if ran in her family – she said no… just me…
So I asked what caused it?
She said is an electrical issue
She has a defibrillator now implanted in her chest 😮
Oh that is so scary!! I guess it’s an irregular heartbeat issue – but how terrifying.
So now they may take her drivers license away… she thinks they will for at least 3 months… and then she may have to stop working.
So that was a little shocking and that must be terrifying for her – she’s still so young!!
Then on another subject, I try not to watch the news at all 🤨… but I am also trying to learn about stocks 🤨… see where this is going?
I am just curious so started learning stocks – I’ve just been reading, figuring out and learning – I just wanna know. Been trying to learn the details. I read articles and am figuring it out little bit. Not enough to feel comfortable but just learning.
Anyway 🤨… and then along comes this horrid crash with all the stock markets because of this virus 🤨 yes I was aware of it already … how do you NOT be?? But I wasn’t really following until this week when the markets everywhere just plunged 🤨
Then all that news has seeped into all my articles massively 🤨
I read things like this from the California Department of Public Health…
https://www.cdph.ca.gov/Programs/CID/DCDC/Pages/Immunization/nCOV2019.aspx
So I’m not sure how much to fear this yet. But the way the world is reacting kinda makes me a little nervous.
And then this from the CDC (Center for Disease Control)
https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/index.html
There is a map on there on all the places that have confirmed cases 😮 omg 😱
I suppose it’s good to know what’s going on with this… but then I also don’t want to fear things. I am trying not to fear things!
So it’s kinda out of my hands – what will be will be… you can’t escape life or death really – both happen whether you want them to or not.
But I would like to not die… already had that horrific scare … and I really do not want to have any other losses – no one else is allowed to die!!! I do not want to deal with another loss!! (I know is irrational but whatever – no more losses)
Well anyway… I should not be reading these things – but I suppose it’s smart and good to know about… it just invades my peace 🤨 and I don’t wanna fear things.
But whatever – you have to live life.
Today was a beautiful day outside!! Just one of those days when the air smells sweet and the sun beats down nice and warm… not hot just warm. Perfect temps – was beautiful!! Ahhhh spring has arrived!!! ❤️
I want to tell you I love summer – cause summer is my favorite season… however … I live in California … and I live in an area prone to fires in the summer 🤨… we also have a horrible power company run by greed – haven’t serviced their lines in years … they got fined for a fire that killed almost an entire city – completely leveled it – killed many and others lost everything … the power company had to file bankruptcy … so now when the wind blows in the summer time – they shut off our power “to protect” 🤨😠… so that cuts off my power and running water 😠… last year was a big giant shit show… they were getting in trouble left and right because they didn’t give warning and were handling horribly…
So while I love summer – that makes me dread it a little bit… can they fix their shit?
Supposably will be slow to do so… said could take maybe 10 years 🤨 so I dunno how long I can deal with that 🤨… every summer … that’s gonna drive me nuts!!! If they hadn’t been so greedy and took care of their lines – we wouldn’t have this problem. But whatever, is how it is at this point 🤨 it’s comin
So for right now… yay!! Spring ❤️
Ok well gnite for now… tried not to freak myself out tonight but that didn’t work no matter what I said 🤨 calling it a night
It was a good day besides all of that – very beautiful and a day that makes you appreciate life ❤️
Gnite ✌️
