Alive & Thriving Chooseday Thoughts : Is There More to Life than Work? || AATYr5 || Slice of Life πŸ˜†

Happy Chooseday πŸŽ‰ It's another day when I choose not only to be happy but also to be calm. 😌

You see, in my work, December is a busy time. Taking a leave of absence for whatever reason is not allowed. That was when I worked in legitimate companies. Not so in my current work. Unfortunately for me (who's always present) I had to deal with a busy work day. I swear not a month would pass when my colleague would not take time off for whatever reason. Too bad for me she's related to the owners. Oh well! It is what it is. Yeah I was swamped at work today. The good news is I survived the day. πŸ™Œ Had to remind myself : keep calm and carry on.

Seriously, I do wonder if there's more to life than work. πŸ˜… I can't complain though. Work pays the bills. πŸ˜’ I really don't mind the work as I do not see myself being idle. It didn't happen when I had more mobility. Now I need to outsource some tasks that I have no energy to do anymore. I do need the extra so I could afford to hire helpers. πŸ˜’ In the past, I said I do not see myself retiring. I'd love to be able to work (or at least keep earning well) for as long as I can. Now, I don't know. πŸ˜’ Wouldn't it be great if you work because you want to and not because you have to? I do wish to get to the former -- work when I want. πŸ˜…

Alas, I don't know if I'm making sense at all. I think it's the tiredness talking. πŸ˜‚ I should cut this short and take my rest. Well, I watched a very interesting Poirot episode tonight. Glad I found an episode I haven't watched before -- Dead Man's Folly. It's one of the really good episodes. πŸ™Œ For dinner, I decided to cook boiled eggs in adobo sauce. Ahh it's pretty good so I'm happy to treat myself to some comfort food in order to uplift my tired spirit. 🀣

Countdown continues on -- 21 days to the end of 2024. Oh boy, the year is ending. I'd like to look back and remember the best moments. I'll work on this mind exercise. I will need to overcome the moments that brought me the greatest stress too. πŸ˜’ I do not know what 2025 will bring, but I pray it will be more triumphs and victories for me. πŸ™β€οΈπŸ’‘

I actively work on these affiliate sites daily. I'll reach $2 on LL tomorrow. I'm quite glad to be consistent on working on these sites.





It's a wrap today. Tomorrow is another day so I let go of worries and keep them away. I'll simply face them tomorrow. Oh, and I have set another appointment with the vet for another home visit. Updates tomorrow. Enjoy a fantastic week! Nighty night from Manila. Ta-tah! πŸ‘‹

Blood in urine but not visible with naked eyes

Under normal circumstances, there should not be any blood in urine. When blood (red blood cells, or RBCs) appears in urine, it is referred to as hematuria. Hematuria can be classified into two types: visible (or frank) hematuria and non-visible (or microscopic) hematuria. A dipstick test or routine microscopy can be used to detect blood in the urine. In a qualitative test, the level of blood is indicated with traces, 1+, 2+, etc. A finding of at least 1+ blood is required for a diagnosis of non-visible hematuria (NVH).

While NVH can occur in some non-serious situations (for example, during menstruation, after long-distance running, following vigorous sexual activity, or as a result of certain foods or medications), it may also be an early indication of serious conditions such as urological cancer or vasculitis. Persistent NVHβ€”which is defined as finding non-visible blood in urine in at least 2 out of 3 tests conducted 2 to 6 weeks apartβ€”should be investigated further to eliminate any serious underlying issues.

In the UK, serious conditions like bladder cancer are detected in 1-4% of individuals with NVH. Therefore, according to UK guidelines, individuals aged 60 or older with persistent NVH should receive an urgent referral to a urologist to rule out cancer.

It is part of the trap in the system now, there is more to life than work but for most due to the cost of living, i feel it is taking over our lives.
I am positive we will get past it though @iamraincrystal
Have te best one

I had what you want, I have always loved my work and when the kids all moved out and I did not have to work as hard as I did, my body gave out and now I do not work at all.
!LOL

I was trying to give out !BBH and !PEPE but found out they are not going through so the only tip I have that I know works is the LOL one. Wish I had more to give you.

I like my day job, but I am still at a point where I have to work. I guess it would have been nice to not have to work, but at least I love what I do.

Loving what you do is the ultimate bonus in life !LOL
Find a job you !LUV and you'll never have to work a day in your life. πŸ˜‰ of course it helps if it also pays the bills πŸ˜†
