Hi there Sand Boxers and lurkers too , please say hi and tell us what you are doing!


I spent the morning at the orthopedist... my knee just would not  bend & got very painful (started yesterday) therefore could not walk very well ... never a dull moment.  The xray showed no rips etc , which is good... so he gave me injections in the shoulder, around the neck, lower back,  outside of the knee and in the hip.  When he walked in with those 5 needles I just groaned. Hoping one or more of them hit the spot. He also gave me a TENS machine to take with me and use. LOL


I have a bit of packing to do (tomarrow). I will do nothing today except be here (and not much of that either as sitting and typing is not good for my ailments right now ), taking a nap, and reading. Dh went off to work so it's very quiet,  he did say as he was leaving "We will eat out the next 3 nights, no standing and cooking. "


Weather is rainy.     


So what are you doing ?

Well, we won't be going to my DGD's orchestra concert tonight as she has Mono!! They just found out yesterday, was feeling ill, doctor took a test, and now she's quarantined for awhile.


Funny you mentioned my neat tidy coat closet. When we went for our walk yesterday, I opened the closet to get my jacket and thought, "Whoa..nice!!" LOL!! I had forgotten that we had cleaned it out.


Oh, my gosh, your poor body is really being attacked now with all of this pain!! Do you have an electric massager that your husband can use on your shoulder? We do and J runs it on my shoulders and hips when needed and it really does help a lot. We have a large one like the link I've included. The heads on this one are round, while our's are oval shaped. I couldn't find any just like ours though, so I expect they're not making

Change of plans, no orchestra tonight, DGD has Mono!! They found out yesterday, she's been pretty sick feeling and is now quarantined for awhile.


How's the bedroom painting project coming along? Finished yet? Sure wish we had the energy and ambition to paint our's too. We cleaned some stuff out of the garage awhile back and brought it into the bedroom. I have the stuff in two large plastic storage bins and there they sit! Can't stand looking at them any longer and must find a home for that stuff. The only storage in this small house is in the basement and I don't like to put things down there. I feel that if it goes down there, it may as well go into the trash for I don't even know what is down there anymore besides seasonal decorating and such. I don't keep very many things "just in case" anymore. I'm getting old! lol

I hope your knee pain goes away real soon and you get to feeling better. So are you in Germany or Turkey?


This week I don't have much going on myself. This weekend I'm going to a baby shower. I found out last Saturday that my friend, whom I haven't seen in a few yrs, is having her second baby in December. She's having another girl. Her first is about 4 or 5. So I have some shopping to do and getting the van serviced either today or tomorrow.


Yesterday and today it really feels like November here, which I just love it. More pit stops at Starbucks. LOL!!!
