I did get the day right...right?
I slept until 3:00 this morning...a triumph for me. It wasn't without a fair amount of pharmaceutical assistance, but I'll take it, whatever is required!
I'm having a rough time with the nerve pain in my left leg and now Tendonitis in my right arm, neck and shoulder. I overdid yesterday with laundry most of the morning (up and down the stairs to my cellar) and doing hair in the afternoon. By evening, I could barely move my arm. It burns with pain this morning as I lean over the keyboard to type this.
My 86 year old Mother is having trouble with her blood pressure. She has a pacemaker which has been doing it's job well, but lately, her bp has been going way too high...then back down to slightly high. It scares her and she seems to be focusing on her mortality more than usual...understandably. It frightens me, too.
I have read all of your posts and am thinking of you all. Wishing you love, healing and peace...
Hugs and clucks...

89FToday it is again another hot day but cooler then yesterday. Since this is August it is to be expected in my neck of the woods. All the grass is yellow and flowers are starting to go to seed. I need to water my garden but this time of the year I'm so over it, which is weird because all my plants have their fruit or veggies.Sandra, this time of year reminds me of your Dad and his toms. We'd...

i'm getting it from storms moving through or something. yesterday was nasty pain. i got halfway through cooking and just couldn't push.
got a notice there's a window inspection friday, hope that goes well. sometimes i feel like i;m living in a dorm.
I watched a program last night about OCD and hoarders, the ocd pple were going into the houses of the hoarders, and well.. you can imagine!
Its funny whenever i watch a program about OCD, i'm wanting to clean and organise and tidy!
I do have a few and have had some ocd issues, but luckily they are not the type to stop me living my life.
Its crazy, but when i was a teen i had to have a freshly washed uniform for school EVERY single day, i mean the whole works including cardigan/jumper and skirt, because if i didn't, something bad would happen! What was that all about! Its bizarre how the mind works!
Ive hoovered up and moped floors and changed my bed, lol, not because of the program, i was going to that anyway as its Thursday my designated clean up day.
I really dont know how you guys cope living with the pain that you do on a daily basis.
Hugs all round
Cherry I hope your mom is going to go in and see her Dr. Soon.
Serenity I am sick of this TN weather aren't you?!
Empathy occasionally I have caught myself leaning towards OCD tendencies and will stop myself. My son has them...of all thing it's his work....it drives the kid crazy trying to be a perfectionist with his work....he does a lot of construction (house). It's pretty miserable to be controlled like that. I wish I had seen that show, bet it was interesting.
I've been up long enough to do a couple loads of laundry.
Son has a soccer game tonight that I am dreading. I just hope I can sit in the car and watch....I just can not sit in the cold!
Wishing you all a good day.
Hugs and clucks
Yesterday I did a lot around the house and a wonderful dinner to top it all off and then hell broke loose. Pain pain pain everywhere!!
I didn't really even enjoy dinner.
But the nigh came and I stayed in bed all night till 6 this morning so now I am a bit stiff but feel a lot better.
Today I am trying something new. Going to a spa and having a body wrap. I have no idea what to expect but the girl that I talked to said that I will be wonderfully happy after.
Tonight we are going to see Luke Bryan a country singer so looking forward to that.
I will have to be careful what I do today cause I sure dont want to feel tonight like I did last night :(.
Does anyone else get bursitis in a joint? My left hip is just killing me when I try to do any task while standing up and the doc said its bursitis.
So my wish today is that we all can get a little break and have some low pain day today!!
HUGS

dixie, i certainly am sick of this TN weather. storms and more storms is wreaking havoc. i just saw that TN is 47th on the list of happiest people...hmmmm.
empathy, i can't watch the hoarder shows. i have a few ocd tendencies, so that really gets to me.
cindi, spa day and a concert - woo hoo!! cindi, i have arthritis in my hips and i get to the point i can barely stand...frustrating...hope you have fun.
i vote for low pain also.
hugs all!!
All of your days sound interesting guys,
Up date on Julio. We had a rough night and she did not like the new wire kennel, even though I got her the larger one. She was in a lot of pain last night and I gave her an extra dose of narcs. The xray showed two vertibra touching so she twisted bad and it must be heavily inflamed. So many times yesterday I was ready to put her down, it was hell on the emotions, but the vet (s) believe that she can recover 80% if I keep her strickly caged for 6 weeks and give her steroids and pain killers. Then, no more jumping in and out of the car by herself, or wrestling with the other chuhauha, etc.
She wimpers a lot from being in the cage I think. It's hard to tell a 14 year old dog that she can't act like the puppy she thinks she is. Day by day.
Back at work today and I see there is a list of meetings on my agenda. It's nuts.
woke to the stuffy ears again, I hate it!
I'm due to go off and play golf this morning. I haven't played since my shoulder injury! A nice sunny day so i'll have fun just being out!
Empath
If not liking things balanced, i that OCD? I fix crooked pictures, couch has to be centered just right, etc. Not too bad of a ocd! Hoarders is something i will never be, i hope
My mom is 84 and was just told her BP is good and this is after years of high BP, go figure!
hope your mom gets this figured out, Cherry!
Yes spa day sound so good, have fun Cindi!
Enig, praying for your puppy, they are all puppies no matter how old!
Take is easy Dixe, are you feeling a bit better?
Well i'll take my meds, put on knee brace the off to golf!
hugs and great day!
Oh yes, I'd straighten a picture on the wall if it were crooked!
I once saw a gentleman walking down the street and he stopped at ever tree and was doing some kind of ritual, he also stepped out in the road and went around the parked cars parked at the kerb.
OCD can be so time consuming.
I think we all have our odd quirks, its whether it gets in the way of living thats the problem, this woman last night had to bleach out her fridge every morning, she got through a bottle of bleach every day.
Currently having problems with Internet. I am limited on data plan with cell phone. I have read and will post later. My husband is on the phone with tech support so hopefully it will be soon.
