TGIF.......said with indifference as a retired individual
It is so true that every day blends right into the next for me.

Was out bright and early to NF, been ages since I've picked any frozen pizzas for the guys.
I had an offer of 2,000 pts on ea. Delissio Rustico ( many varieties ) so I grabbed 12 of them.
After the points earned ( 24,000 ) making them $1.47 each.

Jays are back tonight against the Orioles. Washed my jersey last night along with my Blue Jays pj's.

[Natalka]

Aw, wakonby, blue Jays jammies!

So I went back to have a little snooze, had just awoken after a half hour and there was a knock on the door. I was going to ignore it since I was not expecting home care. But then the phone rang, do I knew it was someone involved with my care, so I called out to have them come in. It was the cute vampire, but I had to have him stop in the living room because I was nekkid. I donned clothes and he did his quick bloodletting.

Now, on with the rest of the day!

[GoJays]

That's a great offer @walkonby

[walkonby]

^^^^ It is wonderful that you have kept your wicked sense of humour @Natalka .....tee tee.

Afternoon all.
Another day working from home. This time it's with a puppy who isn't feeling too well.
Had some very runny BMs over the past two days...gave him some chicken and rice both last night and this morning...might have blocked him up some, since he hasn't yet gone no. 2 today...

Any ways, have a wonderful weekend peeps, see you back here on Monday!

[Natalka]

Dan, hope Cooper gets all better soon. Give him a good rub between the ears from me.

[Natalka]

Wow, I can hear an echo...

Well, I was up all night, it was terrible. Half of the time because of coughing and how much that hurt my back, the other half because of the sciatica down my left leg.
Around nine or so I was trying again to sleep, and got a call from the nurse that she was on her way. Heart rate was low again, gah. Other vitals ok.

So I am having a coffee here after 11, will have to eat something, and try to sleep this aft.

Hoping you are all having too much fun chillaxing to check in here!

Busy weekend I guess! It's raining here. Great for the grass. More organizing and getting ready for upcoming commitments. I will have to do some grocery shopping, too. Take care! Wish I had something more exciting to share.

[Natalka]

Happy Sunday!
My night was better than the last, but not by much. So much pain...

Our son came over last aft/evening (he was to come today), because he ran into some problems working on his car and didn't want to drive it on the highway. So husband went and got him, and he helped me make supper. Then after a visit, husband drove him home, it's about 45 mins away.

Hoping I have less pain today, I am pretty much tired of it.

Have a great day, all!

I hope your day was a vast improvement over others you've had recently, @Natalka and I hope it leads to a peaceful night's sleep.

Back from the island, another gorgeous long weekend there with the family! Lots of fun, but how on earth a 10-year old can give me such a challenge playing chess, then he and his Mom beat my DH and I in two games of euchre is beyond me!!
Love that he can play euchre now, though!!

So, a few days at home before we all return.

Hope all's well with everyone, I'll catch up later...right now I believe a nice glass of cold, white wine is in order!

[Natalka]

Lynn, so much for you to enjoy!

Well, I had to check the time I made my previous post, because something went very, very wrong not long after that.
My lower back seized, I can't even straighten out. My ''bad luck" is getting almost comical - if it only weren't reality. Am taking robax and Tylenol, and it's barely touching the pain. Of course this makes mobility worse, even getting out of a chair or reaching.

Honestly, I just can't believe this has happened...

And, just to spread the wealth, my husband is having a terrible day as well. He is in a lot of pain, but his saving Grace is that he is able to sleep all the time.

Crap day.

@Natalka...is it time for physiotherapy?? Something is really wrong with your back that ,had I not received the benefits I did from a very talented physiotherapist, I'd be in the same debilitating pain I had been in prior to my visit! I don't know if it's covered in Sask., I guess you'd have to check, and in Ontario we need a doctor's 'note' to see a specialist physiotherapist, but by gosh, Hon...it's done me a world of good!
MUCH more-so than the chiropractor that I had to go to emerg after seeing, to find out that he bruised my ribs so badly that I thought I was having a heart-attack! Stay CLEAR of those imposters!!!

So sorry your dear Hubby is also experiencing so much pain...I keep both of you in my prayers. {{{Hugs}}}

[Natalka]

I have been seeing a physiotherapist twice a week, but for my knees.
I will see what it's like tomorrow, if it's still so debilitating, then I will call her.

Oh, I know to stay away from chiropractors. My sciatica problem began when I was pregnant - well actually I didn't know then. I was seeing one for treatments, which weren't going anywhere, but to go on to the next stage I would have to get x-rays. Then they ask that big question, when was your last period - and I didn't really know (I was really irregular, hadn't been diagnosed with PCOS yet). So I couldn't have the X-ray without results from a pregnancy test - and, I was pregnant!
So I could not take that next course of treatment. What ended up fixing me was aqcupressure. That specialist just pushed the right pressure points, it was amazing.

I sure could use that doc now!

Busy summer days all ;round.
Morning crew hasn't had time to drop in just yet.

Have a great day everyone!
