Hey all!!
So how is your weekend treating ya? I just got finished with a ten minute burst of activity, took my pain meds, and am now waiting for the pain to subside.
I decided this morning that I am tired of the house being dirty. Hubby SUCKS at keeping the house clean. The deal was he clean and cook, I pack... right, not working out so well.
Every couple of hours I am going in and spending 10 to 20 minutes, depending on my back, cleaning the kitchen - not counting my two hour nap. It just hurts. It takes about an hour for the pain to chill out, then another hour for the haze to lift off my balance. Then I can go and do another burst of activity.
At this rate, it might take today and tomorrow to get the kitchen clean. Ug. I think I will leave the floors for hubby, but I will keep the kitchen clean!!
It has taken me so long to type this that it has almost been an hour. I hate how much my hands shake. It is just a waiting game for the pain to subside...
hugs to all
yadlim, who can think of so many better things to be doing with my time than dishes

I invited Bill to have dinner with me last Sunday. He wasn't willing to drive 7 hours to mid Michigan and teased me with his beautiful ribs!!! So, of course I ate alone and had cedar salmon

check out that smoke ring. It tasted really good. I smothered it with Maulls BBQ sauce which is Local to St. Louis and one of the best I ever had.....
I have not gotten my pain under control yet, so I am done for today and tomorrow. I hate when I do too much.
yadlim... I need to be rich
