Sometimes there is a ray of sunshine in hospital life... A porter named Marcus just took me in my bed down to xray - sigh, he is very, very easy on the eyes - big, brawny yet clean-cut type, used to be in security.
He did not take my suggestion to drift down the last corner, bummer.

I had a night nurse like that...hmmmmmm...

Good morning!

@flemeth, Omgoodness can you go back to your dentist for better pain control and a stronger antibiotic? I know they can take a few days to feel they're working, but little comfort now...I hope you find relief soon, Hon.

NFL playoffs continue today, the Cowboys and Dallas (two Texas teams, yay!) both knocked off, now to get rid of those whiney, cheating patriots.

Ugh, unless the Chargers are able to pull off a miracle come-back, it doesn't look good Isn't he retiring soon??

Hello folks! I flipped on the game just as 1/2 time happened. @Lynn49 -not looking good for your wishes at the moment. I slept for 2 hours with a certain doggie snuggled up. (She doesn't usually like to snuggle.) I was up for 2 hours in the night, so I guess I made it up.

Feeling not badly. Will venture outside for another little "stroll" and see how I feel.

Doing some filing which, I hope isn't challenging.

Enjoy your afternoon, folks!

@Lynn49 -what a naughty girl that @Natalka is, right?

[Lynn49]

@GoJays , yes, our hopes are dashed. Again. As far as that creep retiring, not as long as he's winning...he and his coach are a "team"...man-crush. I doubt either will leave until the other one's ready. I'm afraid we're stuck with both of them for another year. Gronkowski, otoh, may leave as he tried to do last year...this may be it for him. brady will cry.
As for tonight's game, I don't really have a horse in that race....I do like Brees, though. Both Foles and Brees attended the same highschool, although at different times, and are good friends; it'll be an interesting game. I wish them both luck!!

Of course I am a naughty girl, cha!

Life would be dull otherwise.

Just catching my breath after physio - got up five times, two of the times I could take one step back with my left foot. Tried with right, nope.
Tried to take step forward with left. Nope.

She said it's actually harder to go backward than forward, so we will work on a forward step.

I have cried a lot today. So many things are so frustrating.

Hey, Girlie, look at the progress you've made! If you have nerve damage, that could take months of physio to get through, so don't be hard on yourself, okay? Take each day as they come, just believe that you're getting closer to walking as each one passes by!!
Keep up the good work, Nat!!

Well, the firemen just left. I was all ready for bed when I started hearing, "Beep, Beep, Beep, Beep" and I thought it was my phone. Finally located it-it was my carbon monoxide detector going off. So, I phoned the fire dept. And they came to check thing s out. Finally decided it was the detector itself and I should get a new one tomorrow.

So that is the ambulance, the police, and the fire department all here in the last couple of weeks. They are going to start thinking I'm crazy. I do.

Good night, folks!

Trifecta! You're good to go for a while now...things come in threes you know...

[danger_dan]

Looks like I'm first here today.
Good morning folks.

So sore this morning...worked all weekend running back and forth between the Garage and Basement...building shelves in our storage room.
Task done, well built, they look great, and the Lady is uber happy with the result (I am too of course).
It's a good thing I already had a massage booked for today. I honestly didn't remember that I did until I got my calendar reminder on my phone this morning!

Anywho...off to the papers...back later.

[flemeth]
