Hey all! Hello Judy Dear! Just catching up around here, as haven't been online much. It's Summer and the days are just flying by. We have been camping so much, but that's a good thing.

Sorry about your ongoing pain Judy, but I do think I can relate. I have been suffering for months w/agonizing neck/head pain. I went to a new Physical Therapy place yest and boy oh boy, did the therapist give me a workover. He had me squirming, but in a good way. After looking over all of my reports, etc, believes my neck was injured in my fall from the kitchen chair months ago. He has magic hands, that's for sure. I go back Wed and am excited to be able to have hope that he can relieve some of my pain.

I am not anxious to see Summer slip away. It's humid here today, but I swore I would not complain about it after Winter kicked my tail last yr. I cannot even fathom the thought of cold nasty weather.

AMN is bot footing it all over the place and it gives me a good feeling knowing that medical science is, indeed, working to improve the lives of others. With the injections, Judy~ I had several yrs ago and am under the impression (w/my experience) that sometimes they work and sometimes they don't. My Dr wants to do inj's in my neck if the PT doesn't help, so I'm crossing my fingers.

Sandy~ as usual, Jim is in my thoughts, as I could learn alot from him. Seems like he gets so many lemons in his life, but he continues to make lemon meringue pie. (heck w/the lemondade) Well, have a good one all and I'll check in again.



P.S. AMN has stinky feet.

hey DM. i hope the PT helps. wouldn't that be grand?

AMN must have stinky BOT feet. i'm crack'in myself up.

went out today for errands. it's very hot here.
pain manageable. but i sure can tell a difference after those injections last wk. i feel the nerve pain stuff in my butt and legs.

well, carry on all.

Hey, Dingbat! My stinky feet wouldn't bother you if you'd quit kissin' 'em all the time!



Careful there, Judy, you're getting dangerously close to dingbatism.


Well, my eating choices have improved tenfold since I got rid of the knuckleheads. They make me eat way too much, way too often, and way too poorly! Okay, we don't eat poorly, but that's part of the problem.

I'm still alternating between fat and skinny girl clothes, I swear my fat is shifting or something. Ugh, muffin top comes and goes like MI weather and I just don't get it.

I need a manicure.

had my massage today and feel loads better. maybe it will last thru the wk/e.
tomorrow i'm taking a friend to the hospital for guess what? back injections.
saturday i'm having brkfst with lenora. i hope she can make it.
and sunday rich might come over.

company means i have to start folding my laundry and put it away.

Hey all. Jim's legs are starting to have some changes. They are not crossing over each other in the morning and they actually feel lighter. The only downside we can see right now is his butt hurts more. We're going into week two so we'll see. He can also set his right foot down better, the Achilles heal is loosening up a bit. The neuro thinks the bone may have fused a bit so he may not get it down completely but hey, we're hopeful.

My weight is stable, no loss, no gain. I go back and forth.

sandy, that's encouraging news. does his butt hurt from sitting and being in the chair? or is it something else. and hey, stable is good. it's so easy to gain that stable is very good.

i took my friend to the hospital today for HER back injection. i ran some errands and came home. it's like 95 degrees here. too hot. i've got my AC blasting. hope there's no power outage. as soon as i stop sweating i'll turn it down. try to just use what i need.

have a great wk/e all.

We're not sure Judy. It didn't hurt until he got the Botox. Weird huh?

hi all,

hope you had a good wk/e. lenora & i sat for 3 hrs. we almost could have stayed for lunch too! we always leave an extra tip because we take up the table for longer.

yesterday i stayed in.
today i spent almost $100 on the car. we thought the WW container was leaking but it was actually the pump. so now i think i've fixed every leak there is under the hood.

i got the shingles vaccine today. so far, so good. no reaction.

dear Judy and all,

been busy here as my mom has been in and out of the hospital the last
couple of weeks....they believe it was a severe allergic reaction to two
antibiotics they put her on to deal with a staph infection.


She has been off both meds since last Tuesday so I was hoping she
would be doing better than she is.

She had some funky numbers on some blood panels and they attributing
that to the drugs...they will draw blood on friday and if there are not
improvements then she will have further testing

So that and the bunch of kids I have at home...I have been darn busy...think
ive lost a few more pounds too.

Thinking of you all. Hugs all around..
