I've been around reading, but not posting very much.  I'm missing Rosemary too, and where's Martha?  There are others who haven't dropped by in awhile.  I certainly hope that everyone is doing OK, and just out somewhere having loads of fun.


I can't remember if I've posted here about DH's last Dr. visit;  she still isn't saying anything other than he's had 2 small strokes.  She did say that his heart looked good, the carotids and cholesterol were good too.  We get to go back in 4 months.


Someone, sorry I've forgotten exactly who was having trouble with sciatica, I can sympathize, because mine has been bothering me too.  I eat raw ginger for the pain, which helps a pretty good bit.  I visit my Chiropractor on a regular basis too.  When I'm having bad pain, I also sit with a bag of frozen English peas against my lower back.  It takes about 15 minutes for the cold to make the pain less, but I'd rather do that than try to take NSAIDS or aspirin; they all make my stomach hurt.


Of course, there is always a little of the liquid pain killer in the cabinet under the sink.  Speaking of which, y'all join me for a little libation of your choice.

Lottie, so glad to see you here! We should have a "Still Kickin'" icon & require that everyone check in once a week even though they don't feel like posting. We worry when don't here from someone for weeks on end. BTW, I'm join you at the kitchen sink. I've switched from So. Comfort Manhattans to my summer libation Vodka & Diet Tonic with a wedge of lime...YUM! See you there! Cal
