Sometimes i am me,
Sometimes i am still me.

Today my day was eventless. I volunteered at a library, and it went well. I worked for about three hours. It's a low stress job there, for me anyway.

Thank you, Karen! I hope the rest of your day is good as well.

Today I was a farmworker for a couple of hours. We got a lot done.

And from the farm, I brought home some green and red peppers. I don't know what I'll use them for just yet.

Today I went out for a walk around my neighborhood, vacummed my kitchen floor, swept my front door deck, and ate breakfast and lunch at home.

Happy Birthday Karen! I hope you had a good day with your friend.

Jamie, how is your wrist? Can you feel your fingers?

Today I took stuff to the transfer station to recycle, stuff to the Goodwill donation site, then bought a bunch of stuff at Walmart. Then I sorted some stuff to go to the Utah house and put other stuff in a box to send to my son. Sometimes I watch episodes of "Hoarders" on youtube which makes me feel better about my stuff ( but I feel so sorry for those folks - how can they fix OCD in a weekend?)

Very busy day again. I am overwhelmed, very depressed and my back hurts a lot, which is new for me. I am crying when I am alone. Sunny but having a windstorm, which is common here in the winter.

Trina,

You are only getting stronger and stronger each day. I am glad you are putting your foot down and doing what is right for you. You are right, why bother with a charade??? For looks??? Naw, do what feels good for you. Kudos on making the bread!!!

Hugs, Karen...

I just watched something on television about natives digging for clams after the tide went out. Using deer antlers. I don't know where it was but I think it was in Alaska. It was interesting but I only saw a couple of minutes. And interesting Mike that I would watch that and then read you had clam cake burger. LOL...

Sounds like you enjoyed your day.

Hugs to all...

Karen

Checking in. HT, happy to hear you had the surgery!
I'm not cooking for the family today. Daughter was going to stop by, but is having car trouble. Have not heard from my son. Baked an apple pie, will make myself a turkey breast and the trimmings later, doing laundry now.

I've moved my bed now that there's room to do so, and put up new drapes in the bedroom. So nice to be able to walk all the way around the bed now for making it...and I have each day!

Got all of the furniture into the office/dressing room. Very snug...thank goodness I'm tiny! New rugs for the floor in there and a new pillow to go onto the chair.

Changed the placement of the wire shelving unit in the kitchen. Now it's no longer blocking off between it and the living room. Still able to use the hook rack, now on the end, for my jacket at the front door. New, white microwave that will NEVER have garlic crust hot pockets heated in it!!!

Picked up a small, round, drop leaf table and chairs at the Goodwill to serve me for now. Hoping to get over to the 'Antiques & Salvage' place, hoping they still have the other drop leaf table I have my eye on!

My home is really coming together nicely. I've repainted the wall in the living room and now the buffet holds the t.v. there. Wanting to put up a long shelf for the decor stuff soon.

Peace to all of you!

multiple surgeries for rotator cuff both shoulders with residual chronic impingement syndrome, ulnar nerve transposition, carpal tunnel release, multiple wrist surgeries, multiple herniated discs, tarlov cysts, whiplash, bursitis of hips, grade 5 right shoulder separation and torn labrum, ovarian cysts, fibroid tumors of the uterus

Roller coaster day. Was having happy memories of my Mom as I was making my apple pie, watching the parade on the t.v. this morning. Got a few loads of laundry done. Daughter called, upset her car wasn't running right and she wouldn't be down after all. Made my turkey breast and the trimmings for myself. Son called to wish me a happy day. Leftovers all put away, here comes the sadness. Jammies on, take an Aleve in hopes of a more comfortable wake up...tossing and turning in bed, too much pain and I can't find my t.e.n.s. unit due to all of the rearranging. Ugh! Hoping everyone had a peaceful day.

I always eat turkey on Thanksgiving Day. But sometimes I'll eat a lot of it, and other Thanksgivings I only consume a little bit.
