Did You Accomplish Anything Today?

Star.....Thanks so much for sharing that! I appreciate it. I was hoping to get that "Been there done that" response. Very valuable information. My surgeon, when she prescribed the EMG, had that concern that I was going to loosen a lot of muscle by delaying repair. I will post the results from my Wednesdays meeting so others are informed as well. Regards....

Received a text message from my hand and upper extremity surgeon that my meeting for Wednesday has been delayed unitil Wednesday, December 02, Due to " Covid Precautions". Not sure what that means, but it's concerning

Second load of laundry is on.

My idea of having extra food on hand was to store it in the store. Go buy it when I needed it. That was until Covid. Now my shopping has to be limited. My kitchen is small so now I’m rearranging some shelves in the back entry to pack away more goods. I don’t like this.

I’ve got to make a list of all the items. I know I’ll forget, been there and done that too many times.

I am not going to buy extra and store it, food wise. Our fat can keep us going for a while if necessary 🤣
 
Had my barium X-ray, it took 3 hours and PA said I might have to swallow the camera-if I could swallow something that large I wouldn't be having issues. He kept asking if I had surgery on my small bowel, how many times do you need to say no. 🙁

Not a lot done here today. On some new meds so they knock me out at night , and the side effect is that they do the same during the day so I slept for 2 hours this afternoon...

Washed up..made dinner and that's about all I've done today, still trying to keep my back and shoulder blade rested..

Sorry you have to take those sedating meds--I know what it's like as I take a few that knock me out for a long time, too, one is for allergies. Still you got some things done. I hope your back and shoulder get better!❣️
 
Today has been long and busy. Hubs had today off so we had to go to the house my daughter will be renting when she arrives from Spain, and oversee the maintenance man who was hired to do a few repairs and some painting and grass cutting ... He only did what he was instructed to do and not a thing more, so after he left my o/h set about drilling and fixing , hammering and sanding.. and generally getting the place into a better standard..

He hung new curtain rails in the livingroom and 2 bedrooms ... and I spent the afternoon thoroughly cleaning the kitchens and bathrooms, while he was doing it ... . Very sore on me, but it had to be done.. my daughter is due on Thursday after a 3 day drive with 3 dogs ..and the owner of this house hasn't visited in a long time, much less got it cleaned so it really needed a good thorough cleaning.

Then we went looking to buy new curtains and window dressings, not easy when the country is on lockdown with all non essential stores closed but we managed and by the time we did it was pitch dark with thick freezing fog and we had to queue to get in the store.

Chose the curtains and a new shower unit which my o/h will fit on Sunday for her...while the removal men who will have travelled all the way from Spain , (3 day trip) are unloading the truck.

On the way home we stopped and got Chinese take away.. by the time I got home and had a very fast shower , I was almost too tired to eat it
 
@hollydolly Wow, you and your O/H sure were busy today! Sounds like you got a whole lot done. I bet it is starting to look really nice. That's awful the owner didn't even clean the place up! I hope you will rest now and take it easy for awhile as not to injure yourself worse.

BTW, Chinese sounds good!
 
I did my regular Monday chores followed by a little yard work and washing a load of dark clothes. It looks like I will need to do some ironing tomorrow, but being an old Sailor I can handle that.

Oh yes, I did finish off the last sliver of my Birthday Pumpkin Pie. (I rescued it from the Forum Thanksgiving Dinner party while no one was watching.)
 
Today was pretty much a dud..........
Did my morning cleaning chores, and a load of laundry.
But......that's where progress ended.
Online window shopping at Walmart, for Xmas gifts for my 3 grandkid
I did learn one thing though........i hate shopping online for toys just as much as shopping in the stores for toys......sigh..........
Need to make choices tomorrow.

Oh......i did cook up a really nice ham.
