What's New, Monday?

My two cents.  I worked for GM and I vote for the Equinox.  In fact I was just an inch away from buying one myself!  I ended up with a Saturn Vue.  I'm a believer in buying American.  Two cents spent.

Jan,
Thanks for your two cents.  I want an Equinox too, but I want the LTZ and I want a navy blue one.  But it doesn't look like we'll be able to find one since they are so high in demand.  I hope it works out.

morning candy and OFF...

well just got back from dr appointment for the MRI results and the nerve test. well....i have a couple areas on my spin that need work....nerves also need work....no surgery...no cancer and just a tad bit of arthritis in the spine. sooooo i go once a week for 3 weeks to have the spine block done...after the block is done i have to lay on back for 6 hours when i get back home. not gonna be fun...but if it helps i can do it!! i also was told to do crunches and leg lifts for the ham strings...ok i can do that also. dr also wanted me to come back for more therapy but i can only afford one co-pay a week at $25 each time so he said after the blocks are done we can do the therapy again if i want. ok. tomorrow is the first block to be done. need to make sure i get the next 2 tuesdays off for the blocks to be done. i sure hope this works because i am in alot of pain right now.

Judy,  Have you ever considered accupuncture?  I know it sounds extreme, but my husband and I have had it and it worked really well.  It's amazing what eastern medicine can do for you.  You may want to look into it seriously.
Hope you're feeling better soon.
Jan

nope never thought about it at all..heck i never thought i would need to have this done....lol will ask dr about it tomorrow and see what he says about it though...thanks for posting to me!!

I'm at work today, trying to just get through things so I can go up to the hospital later.  Michael is STILL in, today is the 8th day - I hope the staph infection clears up now so he can come home. 

  The weekend was great - I really enjoyed just being home more and then spent the afternoons at the hospital.  Days are going fast, and I go for my 3 month check up next week, although it's actually been over 3 months now since my RNY!

The weather has mellowed a little bit, too.  It was in the low teens this morning.  Much better than the below zero days we've been having for the last week.

 Hope everyone has a good day and take care!

Well, I haven't felt up to par today either.  Sounds like there's an epidemic of that going around.  I went back to bed for a couple of hours and am feeling a little better now.  It snowed half the day today but has stopped now.  We don't need any more right now.
I'm thinking of ging for a walk with the dogs, but right now it's just a thought!
Sunshine to everyone.
Jan

Hi everyone, I don't have anything new to add. I just thought I would check in and say Hi.




Hugs, Dorothy

Good to see you again, Dorothy. Hang in there.
