GOOD MONDAY MORNING, BUDDIES!
14
Mon, 02-08-2010 - 1:37am

Hello, my lovely buddies!


Guess what's all over my yard?  And the streets?  And the trees?   And bushes?  SNOW!  Oh my goodness, we got so much snow.  The college is closed today.  I don't have any classes on Monday anyway, but J is overjoyed! 


Thank you for all the good wishes and vibes for my neck/shoulder.  I think I must be dealing with something like bursitis (sp?) or a pinched nerve -- something other than an ordinary pulled muscle.  I've never had anything hang on like this.  If we weren't buried in snow, I'd go to the doctor today, but he's even more out in the country than I am!


Anyway, I need to go to bed.  I've got ice all over my back right now, and I'm about to turn blue with cold.  On the plus side, the shivering has got to be burning calories, right?


Have a wonderful Monday, Buddies!


((((HUGS)))) - Karen

Karen, do call the doctor today even IF you can't drive there today; as they may be able to give you a first appt. for tomorrow. I don't want to scare you, but this isn't something want to delay or put off.


The kids have a two hour delay this morning. I need to call Maryland to see if they are open seeing patients this morning as Ds has an orthodontic appt. at 9 a.m. this morning. Would you believe me if I told you he spent two years in braces, one year in a full mouth retainer wearing it 24/7 (except when he eats) and his teeth are shifting? They sent me an estimate bill of over $700 to put braces back on again for a few months. This is after spending over $7K ....urgh. He doesn't want the braces put back on; he says why bother, they'll just move again, mom. Can't say I blame him. He was so good about brushing and flossing the entire time, never broke any brackets, we kept every appt. The cause for this isn't on our end, trust me. So, if this appt. is cancelled or postponed I won't be disappointed.

Plans for today: 1. Try to get to the library, other than that. Maybe get some housework done around here since I didn't do anything all weekend. I got the best nights sleep last night and am feeling so much better today. =)

Have a wonderful day, buddies. Stay safe out there if you are traveling.

We are to get more snow tomorrow night. Probably the same storm you'll be getting tonight. Our forecast is for an additional 12".

I sympathize with the shoulder problems, after a week of both shoulders hurting and a pulled hip flexor muscle. Just for grins, I got out my "3 minutes to a pain free life" book and did the recommended stretches for each of those areas. Well, the hip pain was gone in a day, after 3 days, I hardly notice the shoulders. If you have a library that owns a copy of this, it's worth checking out. There is a lot of text explaining what we all do wrong to our poor bodies, but the stretches for many specific problems and the pix are a great help.

As to Monday, DHs buddy is here for a 3 day visit,but it may turn into 4 with the expected storm on it's way. He must drive from mid-IL to mid-MI and it could be treacherous early Weds AM. No problem, he is good company and loves the cats. Storm will start overnight, so they are doing the weekly grocery shopping this afternoon - brave guys, as everyone else will be out. I didn't get to Curves this AM, so will head over around 3 PM when they return.

"I have some good pain killers in the cupboard, shall I drive them over to you?"


Sounds like a plan to me, Josie!

I'm definitely enjoying the snow - even if I can't get out to play in it.
