Hi Monica and everyone to follow.
I saw my doctor a few days ago and he did not give me a shot of cortisone for my throbbing foot. Instead, he referred me to a chiropractor to see if there is anything that a chiro. can do to relieve the inflammation, etc. before giving me the cortisone. I am not hopeful at all because I have had this condition with my foot for over 50 years. I'll go to the chiropractor as the MD suggested, but I'll be right back to my doctor if the treatments don't work. I have nothing to take (meds) for my foot, and the pain is at times unbearable.
I've been painting doors outside because I have had the help and couldn't put it off. What a furnace! It has been worthwhile because my new french doors are painted, but what hellish conditions to paint in! There is not much left of importance to do outside, thankfully, until the very hot and humid weather passes.
Not much going on today. Someone is coming to do some work around the house and help me get the carpet out the door that I have pulled up. How nice it is to have hardwoods floors instead of that carpet.
A book has become available at the library, which I have been waiting for. I don't know which one it is as I am waiting for a few, but I'll go and pick it up and enjoy a new read. I always love finding something that I think I will like to read. I don't know what I would do if I couldn't spend time getting lost in a good book.
Have a nice, safe weekend.

Hi Monica and my OFF family:
Monica, you might need to buy a wireless router. They cost about $50 or so. You can get them at Best Buy or Staples or Office Depot. Your printer needs a password to get it to work.
Wish we'd get some rain here. It was cloudy yesterday and of course humid, but didn't rain, just got hotter. It's 87 now, feels like 100, supposed to rain again ... hope it does. We really need it. I had a busy Friday and by the time I got home, it was nearly 3. I was pooped ... sacked out in my recliner with some ice packs and played on the computer. When I tried to get up again, I was so stiff and sore. I'm having a bad fibro flare lately. I think the nine days at work have hurt. I work today again, then have tomorrow off.
Went to bed with a headache ... got up with one, too. Feel a little better now. I'm just tired and need some regular days off. I have my review and when I sit down and talk with my boss, I want to bring that up. I can't handle these split days off. It's not good for my health. I want to be flexible, but I really will be more productive if they give me two days off together.
Paid a deposit on my crown, now I have to figure out how to get $620 to pay for the rest in August. It will take a good chunk out of my paycheck. Ugh.
Oh well, that's my day. Have a good one.

Hi Monica and every Offer,
I know I'm posting late in the evening, but better late than never. It's been really strange today. I wake up feeling drugged. Try to do a few things but still not really awake. Then I go back to bed. The cycle just keeps repeating. I'm the sleep woman walking. It's one of those things that will be funny later, but right now it's a pain in the old tush. I had plans of all the things I was going to do. None of it got done. Not going to worship service tonight. Not awake enough to drive. I hope I can sleep tonight and have a better tomorrow.
Also have been thinking about Steve the last few days. I miss him more than I thought I would. Not depressed. But I can not live on what if so I will just keep trucking down the road. I don't know if anyone put 2 and 2 together, but Steve is Dr. Hinkle and Dr. Hinkle is Steve. The last thing I said to him was see you when I get my knee replaced. (trying to hold off until November.)
I'm thinking maybe I should go somewhere else for my rehab. I'll see how I feel about it closer to surgery. It will probably be no big deal by then. I love all the people in the clinic from the receptionists to the PT therapists so I hate the thought of going to a new place .
Take care everyone, Be kind to yourselves, Hugs Mag

Wow! Today's posts ran the gammet (what's a gammet?!) Oh Annette! your kitty stories are just adorable! keep telling them... I have 2 kitties, had 3, lost our Kasi to a tumor that was benign but would not stop growing. We spent a small fortune to remove it but it grew back, it was on her right jaw. She was the funny one, the one that made my heart sing, I miss her so much, she has been gone a year now...
And to Margaret, so sorry for your troubles and Mag, I don't know why I feel close to you, but your present pain effects me deeply. When stuff like this happens you just need time... and say to yourself This too shall pass...and so it is.
So many of you sound so bright and cheery...wish I would feel better about things, being in a bad patch is getting to be a bore... Come on Surgery!!!!!
That's it for now... God bless you everyone...Sam
