Not Good

It is a few minutes after five in the morning. Nice and quiet here in the hospital beyond the noise from the television set that my roommate must have on just so he can snore. Me I may have drifted off for a whole fifteen minutes all night long. Not good.

or no sensible reasoning that I can see a nurse comes into the room with a scale so that she can weigh my roommate. WTH? At five in the morning? When she is done with him they move the scale over to my area and ask if they can weigh me. Why not, I am still very much awake. Not good.

I have noticed that my legs and arms have seemed a little thinner than they used to be. I attributed this to old age, no big deal. People often get thinner as they age and I am almost 61 so it didn't bother me all that much to notice. Not good.

I got on the scale but now wish I had said "no thanks". It gave me some strange weight in kilograms and I should have let it go, hopped back into bed and be done with it all. Nope, not this inquisitive Irishman. Not good.

According to the hospital scale I weigh, in US pounds,83.4. Not good at all. Twenty pounds under my normal way too skinny weight. Not good :(

Too Skinny

Last night, after I had crawled into bed for the night, my wife rolled over and half opened one eye and got startled. She told me that she thought I was still in the bathroom. She didn't even realize I had gotten int bed. I know I am light, but I didn't think I was THAT light LOL
Here is a recent picture of me:

Weight violation prompts elevator rescue
NEW BEDFORD, Mass. (UPI) -- Seven people had to be rescued from a stalled elevator in New Bedford, Mass., City Hall after the vehicle's weight restriction was surpassed, an official says.

John Perry -- the New Bedford Department of Public Facilities superintendent of facilities, maintenance and construction -- said the elevator had an approximate weight capacity of 1,700 pounds, and the weight of 10 people was just too much for the elevator car to handle last week, Boston's WCVB-TV said.

Perry said riders packed into the elevator despite the weight limit warning and stalled the transport for two hours Thursday.

"Some people just don't want to listen to the elevator operator," Perry said.

Three of the trapped riders chose to leave the stalled elevator using a ladder but the remaining seven had to wait in the elevator car until rescuers could free them.

Perry told WCVB-TV that officials would be more stringent regarding the use of the elevator, which was manufactured in 1912 and is the nation's oldest continually operating elevator.

"We will be kicking people off from now on," the superintendent said.
