Good morning/evening/day everyone!
I woke up early today at 6 this morning as my hubby had a doctors appointment. Gladfully, I didn’t have to go with him as our son accompanied him to the doctor.
I have time nowadays as I quit my part time job to take care of my hubby. He has COPD and need an oxygen sometimes.
At first, I didn’t know what to do at home. I have a lot to do anyway so it didn’t matter what came first. So, I am Mylotting again in between my chores.
How was your day? I hope fine. Thanks for reading.
P.S. The photo is Samal Island where I took a vacation last year.

@rsa101 Thank you very much. He is fine and continue recovering. Since he came home from the hospital, he only used the oxygen machine once and that was to try his new oxygen machine for at home and for emergency. I am thankful to God that he is recovering well.

Good morning. I hope you are doing well.
What is COPD? Sorry for my ignorance.
If you've got nothing to do inbetween caring for your husband, why don't you try painting like me? You don't have to be very good, but just the act of painting and drawing is very therapeutic. I find my sadness and depression goes away when I'm drawing or painting.
My day was fine, thank you very much.
This afternoon we are going to the big Tesco again.
You have a great day.

@thelme55 Good evening. I'm glad you are doing well.
Thank you very much for explaining what COPD is. It doesn't sound very nice.
What kinds of books do you like to read? I do a lot of reading myself. My favourite genre is Sci-Fi.
Thank you very much. I hope you had a nice evening too.
Have a great night.

Thank you @RebeccasFarm He is doing fine now. He even went to the doctor today, alone. I am glad he can still drive. We keep on checking oxygen in his body. I love this photo, too. I also have a photo where I sat on one of that rocks.

Your picture is so peaceful and beautiful.
Sorry to hear that your hubby has COPD and needs oxygen. I've read quite a few posts recently that someone is dealing with COPD. I'm sure he appreciates you being home to help him.

Yes, it is a peaceful and beautiful place to visit. How I wish I live there.
He is fine now and he is breathing quietly during sleep. I keep on checking him when I go to the loo at the middle of the night. He needed only an oxygen once when we tried the machine at home. No more worries for me. We have to buy a small gadget to measure his oxygen amount in his body , if it is low again.
Thank you @Marilynda1225
