It Ain’t Over till the Fat Lady Sings<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

May 28, 2023<\/p>\n\n\n\n

rickollie.com edition<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

     Going into today I had hoped that ‘The Fat Lady’ <\/strong>was singing her song already. She’s had me waiting over a month, as I recall, to have sharpened her notes. Apparently, she’s sick too! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

     Damn her and that old adage, “It ain’t over till The Fat Lady Sings”! <\/strong>That’s <\/strong>enough fixation on her and folks that wonder why, I over-think. It’s better knowing what’s ahead than riding over a cliff. This one caught me by surprise. Totally off-guard. Hadn’t thought a move ahead of my last. My mind was elsewhere. My game has slipped.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

     It’s been a long month and I’ve become indifferent to it all. It’s caused no anxieties. It’s gotten routine. Kinda like SpaceX landing a rocket on a barge in the middle of the ocean, with the odds still in my favor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

     Those emotions have been focused on someone who’s not here and might not read this. If you do, here’s a subtle reminder for you. I’m always here. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

     Had most recent, post surgeries\/procedures,<\/strong> follow-up with my cardiologist, electrophysiologist, surgeon<\/strong> today. Results weren’t as grand as I had hoped. I’ll be heading back to the hospital on Friday. This time for a cardioversion<\/strong>. Seems my heart still isn’t beating in rhythm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

     In reality, I’ve had a few of these procedures. Waking up after the first one, I was nauseous. After that, others were nothing. Just tired and wanting coffee when I regained consciousness. So that’s the way I’m heading into this one as ‘A Coffee Lover in Wait<\/strong>.’ Still indifferent but well aware of what to expect and its possible outcomes. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

     Knowing whom, I believe, is the best in his field doing the procedure keeps me at ease. No one better than Doctor S<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

     Thank you, Diane B. and Noi<\/strong>! You’ve both gone beyond what friendship<\/strong> can be defined as. You’ve made me laugh and smile<\/strong> throughout this latest journey. You’ve cost me hours of sleep. But that depuration has given me a greater love<\/strong> for humanity. Likely coffee too \ud83d\ude42<\/strong> Best friends ever! Hugs and love to you both!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

     More after the procedure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

     Until then, find someone to inspire. Show some love to anyone. Make amends to that person you’ve wronged. Call that family member you haven’t spoken to in a while. Or just be nice to that cranky neighbor who has no friends or family. Karma is real people, keep it flowing in your favor. Life is short #WhyNotSmile<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
