Tuesday Morning
Good Afternoon OFF Family,
Just trying to stay warm today. I know many of you have much colder weather in your part of the country. But here in south Texas, a noon temp of 38 is cold. Oh, how I remember those really cold days in Connecticut and Indiana. Don't miss them.
Saw my PC doctor yesterday and all labs came back great. So glad I'm doing something right. It sure isn't my eating. LOL I'm working on that and have lost 6 lbs since 1/1/13. But 6 more to go until I get back to October low.
Orthopedist wants to do knee replacement. Gave me shots in both knees today. They feel great right now and will for about 10 weeks. Then we will talk again about surgery. My mind set is just not there yet.
Time for some lunch. Hope everyone has a great day!
Prayers and hugs to all, Sandra
Sandra, I'm glad the shots helped your knees ... that never helped mine. I got no relief at all from the shot. My left knee was so far gone I couldn't even stand on it. I didn't want to go to the knee replacement again (right one didn't go so well ... had to do it again and still not good) but really didn't have a choice. So far, it seems to be OK, although the knee is still swollen when it's down a long time (like at work.
Eileen, the doctor says he will continue to give me the shots as long as they work. I'm lucky that they a lot! I'm such a sissy, just not ready for surgery and so blessed to still have options. I know my day is coming.
Hope the swelling continues to go down and your knee turns out great.
Hugs, Sandra
Hi Trish and my OFF family:
Congrats on your anniversary! Three years is quite an accomplishment. Hang in there with your mom. This, too, shall pass (although, I know, not as quickly as you might like). Sorry you are stuck dealing with this. If I lived closer, I'd pick you up and you could stay with me (although I don't have a spare room cleaned out yet ... and I don't know how Utley and Juliette would get along). I wouldn't bully you at least ... live and let live, that's my motto. Since I was bullied as a child and teen, I don't do that to anyone.
It started out sunny today but now it's clouded up. Today's my Friday because I had my days off switched again, this time to Wednesday and Thursday (my usual days). That's fine, as long as they are two days together. One of my coworkers came back to work last night after a couple weeks off sick ... and then another one has been off sick. Seems like we can't win.
Well, not much else happening. Judy, sorry your tenants are bugging you so much. I couldn't do that job. Connie, take care of yourself.
Everyone else, have a good day.
