Hoping you have a good session.

I am just back from a visit to the pet cemetery we use. We walked for just a bit, and put gourds on the stone markers of our pets, Midnight, Buster, Daisy and Emma. We walked Belle for a bit and bought some fall fruit at local stands. I love Concord grapes!

Yes, a good session! Why gourds, just curious....

I would love to have placed our furbabies in a pet cemetary but DH would have balked terribly.

Cnncord grapes, yummmmm!

Awwww...Bobbi. I love the farmers markets here. I can't wait for a place called Apple Hill next month. I get a few pumpkins for pies there. Love driving to all the stands.

Gourds because of the shape.

Glad you had a good session, Kathy.

Are you talking about JonBenett Ramsy? I think they said they are going to make an arrest.

...about time!

Relaxing today; PT was quite painful yesterday and I need to plan our overnight trip to Independence Pass and Glenwood Canyon next week.

 

[Meriweather]

Family dinner tonight......minus 2

I need to get back to vacation planning

 

[bobbiwoz]

Today and tomorrow are my volunteer dates for this month.

 

[usnuzuloose]

I'm needing to start dinner soon.

 

[Meriweather]

What are you having?

I will be starting dinner here in about an hour

 

[klmall]

I'm still in pain after therapy the other day so taking it easy.

Hate to take pain pills and they don't always help; trying to distract myself with the DIS.

Oh Kathy I hear you, I am sick of taking them myself. I don't take a whole one, I cut it in half and do it about every 6 hours. They make me feel like yuck to take a whole one. I will keep you in prayer...

I had a steak, so we shared it and made some mac and cheese and he had some left over rice

Thanks Jo! A half pill does nothing and even a full pill is barely noticeable. It's bearable pain.

Wow what are you taking?

 

[klmall]

Hydrocodone (Tylenol 3)

My body handles pain meds differently than lots of people (my mother is the same way). One hydrocodone barely dents pain for me but one knocks my DH out and he is 2x my weight. It always takes more than typical anesthetic to knock me out for procedures.

But now for some good news. We found out yesterday that Frontier Airlines flies directly out of our town to Orlando for very good prices!!! Not necessary to fly out of Denver to get there which is true for many cities and airlines. Yeah!

Maybe we'll skip Alaska in 2017 and use my extra retirement money to do a nice WDW trip.

What have you been taking?

YaY! for the flights..WDW would be awesome...

I haven't taken tylenol3 since the 80's. The Dr. one time gave me vicodin. Holy smoke it made me sick. I take tramadol 50 mg and I cut it in half. I hate pain meds.

I used to take vicodin but most doctors won't prescribe it anymore; tends to be extremely addictive. I have taken tramadol (DH uses it often for all his back pain) and it helps some but not as well as hydrocodone. I don't know what strength he takes now. I have really cut back on the hydrocodone and doctors here want me to stop it completely but exercises and therapy haven't stopped the pain as hoped. We'll see.....

I broke my wrist was broke in an auto accident and I was still in pain and could not figure it out. The doctor stayed with me and held my wrist while x-rays were being done and holding it in different positions. Found out I was missing a piece of bone. That would have required taking a piece of bone from my hip and put it back. I decided it was not worth it. I had hired an atty and he got me quite a bit of money from the accident. I felt so bad when they sued the lady who drove out in front of me. So to this day it gives me fits off and on but I don't really pay attention to it any more. But I believe that prayer will bring an answer for you...don't give up....
