it stopped raining.

i broke out and went to the pharmacy, got two beakers and ordered my wellbutrin (i knew they did not have it in stock, but i can't take it till after i have my blood drawn anyway). still, now i'm all set to get labs, be that tomorrow or not. and the wellbutrin will be in on monday. i forgot actifed tho! luckily i have my regular antihistamine, but it does not have decongestant in it which i need sometimes with these darn trees.

i also went by the lab to check the hours. do not relish showing up too early, and having to stand outside with hunger cramps and a beaker full of urine in hand.

i stopped by a bar for a beer after that. just one. i don't know if the walk or the beer or both helped my backache but it improved. not my head/neck though. my head still feels really weird. i even did some stretching earlier, before going out, but with little luck.

oh, Mari... lol, about the rain... emmm, not so much apologetic... more meant as a scoff at the local concept of "raining cats and dogs." i mean - to me, cats and dogs means rain that can bust an umbrella, or drench a person in a 10 second sprint to their car. cause one to pull over when driving rendering windshield wipers totally useless. i believe you are familiar. i spent most of my life in the subtropics. so i get pretty underwhelmed by the reactions to rain here. mind, when i don't want to get wet, any rain counts. i just don't call it cats and dogs, ya know?

my mother is doing the dishes. bless her. i will try to help dry/put away or something. but i feel sorta dizzy ooky. this cervical crap is weird.

Dear WAves,
Sweetie....I am glad that your back might be alittle better after a beer...if I read that right. Your mothers arm must be better if she is washing the dishes.
a good dark beer is good and it always lifts my spirits.
sorry you had a stinking day...
I am getting ready to go to my womens journey thingy workshop.
have a great weekend for who ever follows.

No plans for the weekend here...

I just plan on resting and adjusting to the medicine changes that the PDoc made on Tuesday.... All I have wanted to do is sleep but it mainly makes me more tired.

I hope everyone has a wonderful weekend!!!

for all!!!

Dear Abbie,
I hope that you adjust to the med changes and that they work for you.
I hope your weekend goes well.

Dear Waves,

Your second post a few hours after the first sounds better --
you have a marvelous ability to recover (I'm not saying fully recover. I mean I guess that you sound closer to not being near a break down that you did in the earlier post and I am grateful to hear that.)

Also, progress had been made with the rain stopping and your checking the lab hours and getting the beaker, and the beer helping the back. . .
I hope that the other maladies abate.

Its going to rain today darn it! I want to go out with Mother and it's not looking too good....Shoot!

[Mari]

Pam,
Yes, lots of rain maybe.
We thunder and lightening briefly last night.
Maybe the rain will go away quickly and you can still have most of your day.
'Sending sunny day vibes.

Thanks Mari, I am really sweating the repairs to the car, we need a new pair of tires and it's gonna mean hardship for us. I just hate that the leak began AFTER we'd spent the money from the stimulus thing in May...What a PITA. I HATE not having a savings...I hate car repairs...and I feel down today because of it.

I woke up with bad back pain so I won't be doing much today. It feels like a ball of pain in my left butt and it makes my whole lower back and left leg hurt.

is that sciatica barbara?
ouch!
sounds painful.
we went fishing today.
rented a small boat (little bigger than a canoe) and bought crickets and big succulant worms.
I actually caught a fish a blue gill. Jeff caught a baby catfish who was so cute! I will try to post the fish, jeff will that is.
It was nice being on the water and doing something different.
the weather was really nice. 85 not humid, small breeze.
saw egrets, baby alligators, a big hawk that jeff took a picture of and will try to post that as well.... he was in a near by tree preening.
After turning the boat back in we fished off the side of the bank and I feed the minos...that is fun they like worms! We ended up letting all of the crickets go because we weren't catching any fish.
Headed back home it was only an hour away, it was an anniversary day so no fishing liscense required to fish and free entrance to the park.
We said next time we would go and rent kayaks...
