It is FRIDAy....what's new?

Good morning everyone.....

I am sorry I didn't get back to everyone yesterday. I did answer your posts this AM. I was not feeling well yesterday afternoon and evening. I went to bed early. Just felt real off...just really blah...nothing specific. 

I sat with my grandson and helped him with his home work after school yesterday ...as best I could after all these years!!! We had fun and laughed a lot.

That is about it for me. I want to go out for a walk before it gets any hotter!!

I will be checking in later.

Prayers for many of out OFF friends and families today. Many special prayers going up as well.

Have a beautiful day!!

Love and many hugs to all......connie d

Hi Connie and my OFF family:

Well, I'm not having a good day whatsoever. I couldn't sleep this morning; got up at 5:30 a.m. and couldn't get back to sleep, so just got up. Saw my apartment manager outside so thought I'd corral him to fix the bedroom window that doesn't lock (I came home yesterday and it was wide open). As he and I were coming back into the apartment, I either tripped over my own two feet or my leg gave out from under me. (Manager thought I tripped over the throw rug, but I don't think so.)

I am really getting fed up with this manager. I don't know how many times I've asked him to fix the windows and he always promises he'll do it but then I have to ask him again and again. If he doesn't fix this one today, I'm going to call the owner and let him know my difficulties and why I'll be moving in December. I realize my issues are minor, but I shouldn't have to call so often to get a minor problem fixed.  

Hope you feel better today, Connie. I may be going to the doc to have him look at this arm. It really hurts.

 

Eileen...sorry you couldn't sleep. Glad you spoke with the apartment manager. Hope he fixes things soon. Keep complaining...that is your right...the owner needs to know what is going on. Why are you moving in December?

Sorry about your arm is hurting....maybe it would be best to go in and get it checked out. Good luck!

Hugs and love....connie d

Hi all!

It seems this is a Friday the 13th, even though it is only Friday the 6th.  Eileen, I just saw in FB that you've gone to an ER for treatment.  I hope they will fix you up fast and you won't have to wait for hours to see a doctor.

Well, I won't repeat all the stuff I posted on the other thread, but I did want to tell about my visit to the GYN this morning.  I liked her and she's very young, but I think she's quite sharp.  She said my uterus is enlarged, so I'm going next week for an ultrasound to check it out.  I told her if I needed to have a hysterectomy, it needs to happen this fall while I still have good health insurance through Butch's work.  After January, I'll be self-pay.  Also have a mammogram scheduled for next week.  Busy times.

I'm not quite sure how to announce Christie's pregnancy to our family and friends.  I still have to tell my mother, too.  Chris already yelled at me for telling Carrie about it last night.  Said she wanted to be the one to tell her sister.  But she had no suggestions on how to announce it to the rest of the clan.  I told her, "We can't just show up at the next family function with a baby in tow!" 

I'm going to lie down for awhile now.  I feel like I am wearing lead shoes today. 

Love you all,

Hello Vickie...I haven't been on Facebook since this morning...I hope Eileen is doing okay. It sounded like it was a nasty cut.

Good idea to get all your medical procedures done yet this year. They are so costly and getting worse all the time.

Sorry Chris yelled at you....makes me very sad! 

Hope you had a nice rest. I am very concerned about you!

Love you...hugs....connie d

Hi, All.  So much happening on OFF lately.  It seems like it's up and down.  I'm waiting to hear that the doc has been to see hubby and then I'm driving to the valley (1 1/2 hrs away) to pick up some tools he ordered from Home Depot.  We chose the "ship to the store for pick-up" option and now, of course, I'm wishing we didn't.  I hope everything fits in our vehicle.

Hubby looks so much better today.  I took our pup to visit him and they each enjoyed their reunion.  Hubby took four laps around the nurses' station early today.  Still on clear liquids.  We're hoping for discharge this weekend.

I'm bushed.  Feel like I'm swimming in tapioca instead of water.

Take care, everyone.  Thoughts and prayers with all of you.

Hello Cindy!!

I like that ship to the store for pick-up but only if it is close by. Hope everything fits the truck!

So glad your hubby is feeling and looking better. He must have been happy to see your pup!!! It would be wonderful if he gets discharged this weekend!

Prayers on the way.

Love and hugs.....connie d

Thanks, Connie.  Talked to hubby a bit ago (after I returned from the valley).  Doc told him he MIGHT get to come home on Monday.  He's on soft foods as of noon today so he had some scrambled eggs.  He said he feels stuffed -- but NO PAIN.  :)

Everything from Home Depot fit in the car but there wasn't a bit of room to spare.  One of hubby's friends came to our house and unloaded the SUV for me.  I'm so appreciative that he did that for me.

It's only 8:30 p.m. here and I'm bushed!

Well need to get more done before they get here have to work in little bits and pieces as my arm is so sore from therapy today!!!!

Thoughts and Prayers for ALL that need them!!!

HUGSSSSSSSS 

Judy....still no cortisone shot? What does your doc tell you is the reason for not giving you those shots. I was just talking with a friend who had the cortisone shot into her back that has been keeping her miserable for months, and she is now pain free. Same thing happened with me. Shoulder was totally unusable until I had cortisone shots....three altogether....now pain free for several years.

Please tell me what they say when you ask for shots......I can't believe they aren't giving you help to get rid of this pain. Sounds unethical to me. Hang in there, sweetie. You deserve to feel good...you work so hard. You deserve to have your free time feel wonderful.

Aloha nui loa,
