I was in the beauty salon having my hair dyed back to brown.
Is there something we need to know?

I think sometimes about all the pain in the world. I hope we can ease that here, even if only a little bit.

Well, the neurosurgeon told me nothing I didn't already know. I have 2 herniated discs between C5 & C7. He would like to avoid doing surgery for as long as possible. He wants to try anti-inflammatory drugs (didn't give me any info about the drug of choice) and Physical Therapy (but the place to which his office referred me can't see me for 1.5 wks but it is Christmas time).
So, I don't know much more.....but I'm not being raced off to surgery this week. So, that's good.
He better be good because he has the personality and bedside manner of a stump.

OK, I got my Monday laugh now.
It was a good one too.
Maybe you could get him "How to win friends and influnce people."
Probably he wouldn't read it, but one never knows.
So the bottom line is that you are on hold for a few weeks.
Are you getting enough sleep? (Not counting Saturday nights.)

How to win fronds and influence maples.
No secrets - my tweezers can't keep up with the gray, even at my still youthful age.
My voice is on bed rest, but I do not have strep.

At least he isn't a gynecologist. He would have lost all his patients. Or is that his patients would have lost all their patience.
Yeah, take some prescription anti-inflammatory drugs (about which he told me nothing) but pharmacist said are not in same category as Vioxx and Celebrex and meet w/ Phys Ther people in about 2 wks so I could do some home traction. OK....at least there is no surgery in my immediate future.

Life may feel as if you are constantly getting kicked on a daily basis, living is about picking yourself up each day and going on and on and on regardless.

Personally, right now, I need for my credit union to come through with a $2500 loan tomorrow so I can pay for the heat pump.....it is to be installed tomorrow. I procrastinated on lining up the money. SHUCKS!!!!
But it will be OK.
I hope every one of you has a good Christmas....I'm trying...trying....trying.
It's not going real well, YET!!!

You'll get there, Cinders. It's only 5 more days till Christmas, so there's a limit to what can go wrong.
Oops, maybe I shouldn't have said that out loud.

So far today, neither the credit union nor the contractor has called. Frankly, I'm ok with the contractor not calling until after the CU comes through w/ money. It is not good to need heating system this time of year. But it was my choice not to wait until February when it is always colder.

Well, credit union came through... Called the contractor at 1 p.m. wanted to know where they were. Today was the agreed upon day. Salesperson said his proposal specified installation today. Scheduling put me on the schedule for next Thursday. No heat pump till next week. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif" alt="" /> Like I can take a day off any time I want.....sheesh.<img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/eek.gif" alt="" />

Not quite sure what to say. Yayboo? I'm glad you will have one eventually.
Neaksis is up again, mostly, and I just had crackers. Now I'm going to boldly try a popsicle.
