Im back from doc. I overdid the gardening and many tendons are very sore. He just said slow down and take more anti inflams for awhile. Xrays looked fine thank goodness. I over heard a lady in waiting room saying she didnt have any hip right now. She got staff infection so they took old one out but didnt replace it. I didnt know that could happen. She was walking with crutches.
Im gonna call bed guy and say no. Too risky for me
Its a beautiful day but the positions ihad to get into for xray really hurt me so im not doing any of the stuff that needs doing. Just resting
Im thinking i might lift weights for last exercise...but even my eobow hurts now so im not sure. Still lots to do in and out to get ready for winter
Hope all have a good day

Friday-Almost forgot to post today. Only a few hours sleep last night so I'm barely hanging in there. 45 minutes to go here at work and am going to crash when I get home. I was supposed to help Josh at the fall festival tonight(face painting) but am going to beg off.
Working tomorrow so I'll see you all then.

Kam .. Glad the day went well. What "program" are you referring to? Just wondering.
Kayak.. The doc said to slow down. Listen. Glad you are not going to get the bed. Sounded scary.
I went to hubby's show again today. They did really well .. all of them. Such a privilege to see it for free!
I'm very worried about everyone in Mexico and Texas. Texas is already getting tons of rain the storm is not anywhere near them yet. My brother and his wife are in Washington DC and their house could be in danger if all this rain keeps up. I have lots of family and friends in danger.

Saturday-Must be too early for everyone. Well, it's 9:01 and I stocked in one car and made the coffee. Don't have to make any sales folders. Just water the plants and answer the phones.
I was so exhausted yesterday! When I got in my car to leave for the day I backed right up into a huge light post. I don't know how in the world I missed it! My rear bumper is ok (amazingly) just scratched up quite a bit. Needless to say I went straight home, scarfed down some chips and salsa, followed by half a sleeping pill and a cranberry vodka drink. I slept for 9 hours!
Kam-I haven't tried any glasses for eye strain yet. I need to check it out. I try not to stare all day long at my screen. I get up and shamble around the dealership because of my back and also I look across the street to try and get my eyes to focus on something not so close. BTW, hope you can get some decent care givers. Couldn't believe it when I read that she pulls the filter out and then puts the water in! Sheesh!
TuTu-I hope that your friends and family are going to be ok. I've been oblivious to the weather lately and don't know what's going on. More flooding ahead?
Also had a chance to watch that link but didn't have the sound on. Even just seeing it, I'm amazed by the young man. Where does such grace and compassion come from?
Kayak-That's a great idea exercising before meals. I have to be on a schedule or I can't remember to do things regularly. Hope that helps your cholesterol.
Anyways, gang, I hope everyone has a wonderful weekend.
See you all next week!

Tutu--Praying for your friends and family in Texas.
Kam--praying you get some decent caregivers!
Lp--I'll be coming over this winter to eat your gluten free goodies.
Ak--Oh my! Glad you and the car were not hurt.
I had parent conferences yesterday and saw over 80 parents. Much harder than a teaching day even though they went well. Felt like I was on a conveyer belt going from parent to parent to parent.
Did my grocery shopping last night and spent this morning cooking--pork, chicken, veal.
Went to the library this afternoon and almost met my maker twice when someone came down a one way street the wrong way.
Coming out of the exit to the library a SUV came barreling in. Narrowly avoided me and then flipped me off. Well, she came in the exit not the entrance, so she was at fault. Clearly marked.
So, I am now going to take short nap and then watch come college football.

Wow, AK .. glad you are home resting now! The storm I'm referring to is the largest hurricane/cyclone ever to hit the Western Hemisphere. It went in on the western coast of Mexico and it's headed for Texas. Texas has been getting rain for two days and many more days of rain to come.
Thanks for keeping all of those folks in your prayers. I imagine we'll be getting some bad reports from Mexico soon. I pray it was less damage than expected.
We went to choir rehearsal, then hubby went to do the show. I stopped at WalMart for craft supplies for Sunday School tomorrow. We're making bracelets for OCC again.
Hiker .. That's a LOT of parents to see in one day. Were those one-on-one conferences? That's exhausting.

Ok si i guess i havent missed a day. Alot goibg on. I am writing exercise down but on dys when i have to do things if they are hard for me physicall . Im writing them as exercise. Like yesterday when they took the xrays of my knee. I was standingvby the machine over 15 min. During the shot i had to get in wierd posituons like squatting and hold it. It was very hard and painful for me so i counted it as one exercise
Last night after doc i fell asleep about 8-9...very early for me. I was so tired. But then i woke at 4 and couldnt get back to sleep so i worked on house for 3 hrs
Then i set up ozone and took etta and went to hime depot to get last 5 pieces of sub floor and 4 long pieces of baseboard and some other odds and ends
It took a long time and i was limping by the tume i left
When i got home i turned off ozone and aired out house while i unloaded...oh yeah. Im so bad. They were selling mums for 20. And i thought how stupid...we have had two hard frosts....who would spend 20. And risk have themdie everynight?
But....they had shrubs for 3.00. I bougt 4 azaleas and a mini holly bush....im not sure what will happen with out mate for it
So after unloading wood i started planting. 5 shrubs, 4 types of beach plants. Two roses that had to be moved.
Tomorrow. I have one more clump of daisys and some dead heading and cleaning up my mess
I will do that early and late because as soon as it hits 50 degrees i have to start staining baseboard...probably two coats...and then poly. The metal bookcase needs a little more paunt too. And there is a big mess outside....but i really have to get this stuff ready for the cleaning guy whi says he knows how to do baseboard and trim
Hes coming thurs...i hope. I have all the materials
In hime depot etta was in the bottom of a cart...you could hardly see her with ffive shrubs in there too...looked like she was in a jungle. But when this huge basette hound walked by(i swear i thought it was a pig at first...it was huge)...etta jumped up on two feet...head coming thru the foliage and howled at him....she wanted to play with him so bad
Ima neglectful.mom. i should take her to daycare more often
Anyway....very busy day...included a 40 min talk with brother in alaska. And talk with neighbor about missing cat
And now its nine and im.ready for bed. Been up since 4. So nite all
I never had 80 parents in one day and i taught 29 yrs. That sounds nuts
Ak...really hope you start feeling better soon
Tutu...glad you seemti be doing pretty good. Still concerned about your family. Hioe its all ok
See u soon!
