MORNING HAS BROKEN !

MORNING HAS BROKEN

You know, when the clock is drifting and waking around six or half past seven and you've rotated 11 times in bed and the pain in your lower back starts to get really fussy, you realize that the smartest thing you and your special someone have done was to have separate bedrooms.
Not just our own bedrooms, but each of our study, I can sit here on mine while the clock has begun to move towards eight and pour my morrarustration out over the world and the universe.
Half an hour in the bathroom, and sure, we each have our own separate bathrooms (photo).  The bathroom procedure is done, my teeth brushed and ready to stagger myself into the study across the hall and consume the room-tempered orange juice that had been placed there the night before, since making my way out to the kitchen through a corridor (photo) that seems endless so early in the morning.
But then, room temperature juice together with one pill of "Keppra" - against epilepsy, a pill of "Dutasteride/Tamasulosin"  (you get it on prescription from an urologist whom you should consult the sooner the better) which, in other words inhibits the growth of the prostate, which in turn presses on the urethra, which in turn causes difficulty emptying the bladder, ie that you stand and stand there over the toilet and it barely drips a few drops into the toilet bowl)
Difficulty urinating is very common, especially among the elderly, (and since I'm fast approaching 80, I guess I can soon call myself "older", although I don't have any sense of the expression). 

These difficulties can thus manifest themselves as emptying difficulties, where the bladder does not empty completely, or storage problems, where you get frequent urination both day and night.
Either way, it's some crap, and if you haven't been there, you should get to a urologist on the double!!
Your GP will fix a referral, although he'll probably try to poke at you some "wonder pills" that generate nothing of wonder whatsoever other than the doctor getting commission from the apotheque. 

There is hope for you girls too, just talk to your GP. Nothing to be embarrassed about, nature takes its course.
And not to forget, a "Tramadol" that in the course of half an hour shrouds the world in a pink tinge and enables me to move somewhat normally.
So there we are, a quick lecture about peeing about marten robbery.

22.10.2023: WHEN WE WERE YOUNGER

Today a correspondence appeared that I had exchanged with a good old friend.

We were both competitive gymnasts at a relatively high level in our youth and were among those who topped the lists in Northern Norway and to some extent in the Northern Calotte which is N. Norway, N. Sweden, and N. Finland had a broad and intimate collaboration on the sports front in "the old" days.

26.11.2023: THE PROBLEM SOLVER

 

It appears more or less imperceptibly, but it appears sooner or later - with all of us. For me, it happened somewhere between 65 and 75 years that I had to pick a dry toilet paper and wipe away the last drop after I had hit the bilge.

As time went by, a tiny stain started to form in the panties, almost just a little imperceptible moisture which eventually turned into a tiny stain.

According to new figures from “Statistics Norway 2010”, the households of elderly people had assets of NOK 2.6 million on average. In 2020. This had increased to NOK 4.8 million, according to new figures from “Statistics Norway”. The transition to old-age pension means that income will decrease for the vast majority.

14.12.2023: POTENCY

"POTENCY»  -  power - the word undeniably has a special sound. Maths. Cars - with power. Boats - with power. Airplane - with potency. Men - with potency and last but not least, - women with potency.

Anyone who now thinks that we are going to do a deep dive among erected penises and horny ladies is quite right to a certain extent, but we shall, as far as possible, - keep it on an academic level since we are moving into an area that is not talked about so much. For some, it results in pure, life-affirming joy and positive everyday life, while for others it is a source of constant frustration.

18.12.2023: WHEN WE WERE YOUNG AND UNHARMED

It is hushed in the house. The clock has not yet reached half past seven where it hangs over the kitchen door, - which, by the way, is no longer there. So the door, - not the clock. I think about the day. My wife has told me to start writing again. 

I can sit on a chair, sit on a motorcycle, sit in a car, both behind the wheel and next to it, sit and watch TV and of course, sit at the desk and fiddle with the keyboard on the laptop. But I can't go much further. Not far either. It is literally the flip side of the coin.
