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

Dear Connie,

No feeling sorry talking about the way you hurt! Hope that now that the nurse has seen how fast your pain comes on, she can tell the Drs. and they could give you something that takes care of this faster. I had a stiff neck last year and the Dr. gave me Flexeril, it didn't even phase me! Ended up taking Aleve (I know I'm not supposed to) but that helped. 

I am constantly thinking of Vickie and Butch, the wait must be torture because you do not want it to happen, but at the same time know it will.

As for me, I better get off this computer and break down and clean this house... my dog (Lhasa Apso) does not like the vacuum either but she will have to put up with it.

Prayers for all of you in pain,

Hugs,

Monique

Hello Monique....thanks for the kind words. I feel like all I do is complain about my pain. I can't help it. It hurts so much of the time. I am glad the nurse saw it too. She was scared!!! I know she will be contacting my doctor.

I know how you feel about Vickie and Butch. I have them in my thoughts all the time too. Such a sad situation for all of them. 

Thanks too for the prayers for me. I need them!! I am going to lay down for awhile when I finish up here. I get so fatigued all the time.

I am sure your dog is gorgeous...that kind always are!!!

Lots of love and hugs....connie d

Connie, 

I am so sorry you are having to "prove" you having the pain and having it the way it occurs. It is just not right. I am glad someone is now able yo validate you and the pain you have. I hope today is a better day. 

We all carry a burden, and your speaking out about yours in no way minimizes what Vickie is experiencing.  I am glad you spoke up. Blessings 

Hello Francine...thank you too for the kind words. Sometimes I feel more like a burden then a support person!! 

We had a cold front just come in...I could feel it moving in. I hate this so much!! At least it isn't cancer and I am grateful for that!

Thanks for caring...more love and hug to you...connie d

Hi Connie and my OFF family:

Connie, I understand about the muscle spasms. I have the sharp shooting pains in my right knee. I was having one last night at work when someone was over talking to me. It makes me grimace and say "Ouch!" The person asked if I was OK. I said, "No. I had a sharp pain in my knee and it hurts. It happens all the time." He asked what I did for that. I said I just wait til it passes. And yesterday I was having pain in my left foot. It's always something.

We had storms last night and we're supposed to have more over the weekend. I have a headache now so I know I'm feeling it. I did nothing today ... got up later because I had the call from the health coach. I lost 3 pounds. I've been seesawing. 

Talked with my brother this morning about next week and what apartments we would see. Another one opened up and this is one Gary wants to see because it's cheaper and he likes the layout. I've seen the 1 bedroom model ... I liked it because the laundry room was big and I could put the litter box in there, plus they had built-in bookcases. Always a plus for me.

Anyway, I wanted to take a nap before work but I think I lost that. Maybe I'll empty the fridge of its garbage so I can take out the trash. Have a good day.

Hello Eileen....I was going to nap too....a neighbor came by and she just left....maybe I will try again in a little while!! 

We are having storms  and more to come. I can't stand this!!

Congrats on your 3 pounds lost...little by little....it will come off!! I am at 23 pounds lost...it is going slow but I am glad...maybe it will stay off better. I started this in the middle of February. Keep going...don't five up!!

I hope you and your brother find an apartment that you both can agree on. Men and women think so differently. 

Have a good night at work.

Lots of love and many hugs to you...connie d
