My neuropathy is bad, hope the epidural works...soon. Had a cold front come through. Dusted our place with some snow this morning. That little stack of wood is all we have left. It worked out perfectly this year. The chickens and goats are happy in their house. :)

PD...the first time I had the cortisone injections in my spine.. I was pain free for about 24 hours due to the numbing of the area ..I could have jumped over a house.. but then when it wore off..OUCH... it seemed more painful than before.. but don't worry because that goes away after about a week.. and the cortisone starts it's job.. and within 2 or 3 weeks you should hav no pain there at all...

I know it sounds like a long time, but honestly , if it happens the way it did with me.. then you'll eventually be pain free for a long time after that...

Fingers are crossed that the shots work for you.
 
A beautiful Spring day as if nature wants us to forget her antics. Still fires on the ground and massive power outages. Cleanup efforts everywhere. Sooners are a tough breed. Friends will pick up all canned goods in my pantry. Fresh bread should be ready to take as well.

Need to keep myself busy so planting, planting, planting. We will have peppers out of the xwz in August.
 
iiiiimmmm back!!!!! Nice to be missed...big gust of wind about
70mph hit us here in town, and took down that big tree down by street and my driveway, it took out all utility's and 2 poles
and a street lite....just now getting back online and heat going, I was getting cold as hades in here, and temp outside has drop
to 33F now, and it is now snowing !!!!! HOWS THAT!!!! WHAT A NITE!! I'LL POST A PIC OF THAT TREE IF I CAN LATER......RIGHT
NOW IS HOT CHOCLATE TIME!!!!:D:love::coffee:
I'm glad you're okay Hawkie I was worried about you

Morning gang!!! Slept fairly well all things considered.. it is
33deg F out there, and it snowed off n on most of nite, but
hardly anything stuck, it is icy out so there will be traffic isssues...Plan for the day is to see what I can salvage from
the fridge, not that it was full of gormet food or anything...

will be done till tomorrow...so no groc delivery for awhile...

Sooners - are you part of a baseball team?
 
@hawkdon, glad you're ok, but what a harrowing time for many across the country. Hoping this is a one-and-done rather than a harbinger of a particularly active tornado season. Has your power been restored?

Had brunch with (vegan) DS & DDIL at a lovely vegan restaurant yesterday. Great food and a nice visit that stretched out to two hours. ❤️ The restaurant wasn't overly busy so they didn't seem to mind our extended presence.

TGS is coming today! As usual, his presence will mostly steer our day, but I wouldn't mind hitting the nearby Asian market for a few produce items if he's up for a little bye-bye in the car action.

Yep restored last nite about 830, 26 hr outage....
 
Well clearly I'm not as far forward in my recovery as I thought.. Felt sooo cold today, it was 64 deg in my house, but I was ffffreeezing.... and awfully tired at 3pm and that was after having a full night's sleep last night.

I got on the sofa, and covered myself with a thick fleece blanket, and slept solidly for 2 1/2hours.. but still so cold under the blanket despite having 3 layers of clothing on, and when I woke up my cheeks and my hands felt like ice 🥶 as soon as I did wake up the phlegm filled coughing began. 😩

I rushed to put the heating on.... and make hot tea... .. so now at 7pm with the house warmed up, I'm going to have some dinner

I'm not up on your ailment, so I'm wondering if you ever have help with your needs. I sleep in my recliner & at times I feel cold, other times when too warm I remote control my fan on. When I'm cooled off, I turn fan off. Getting up from sitting to get something to eat is a shaky & tiring business & I've wondered if I'll eventually need in home help. That you manage to take care of your needs yourself is amazing. 👍
 
I had another dream about having my hair cut last night. Strange because I don't have recurring dreams and this one wasn't the same dream, but the same theme, getting my hair re-cut (I've just had it cut a couple weeks ago).

I get it because I'm very happy with my hair, this new cut, cept it could be maybe an inch shorter. In waking life, it's not bothering me that much and I've just thought I'd get it a little shorter on the next trim. I don't know why I keep dreaming about it. Weird.
 
We have had wind, rain off & on most all day today.
A piece of metal fascia on hubby's large garage is flapping in the wind.

If he uses a backhoe bucket to get someone up there to nail it down.
Backhoe arm isn't long enough to get some up that high.

Hubby is planning on spraying the out side wall of both garages, this week.
To make them last longer.


Crossing fingers that there are some sunny days for the 'stuff' to dry.

Maybe subconsciously you truely regret your hair was not cut an inch shorter, and that regret is coming out in your dreams. Ya just gotta wait till you think the time has come for another cut. Think happy, happy thoughts about your present cut until then. 😁

Oh bless you Elsie.. I don't really have any needs normally, but this last week I've been suffeing from what we think is either RSV, or pneumonia.. I can't get to see a doctor due to long waiting llists , but having listened to my symptoms in a phone call the doctor has prescribed Antibiotics, and inhalers of Clenil Modulite to prevent a flare up of Asthma occuring due to the coughing..

I've been pretty poorly with this since last Wednesday... not eating, suffering from sleep apnea , horrible coughing fits etc......and super tiredness..

However I am not in any way disabled *touch wood* .. other than this which came out of the blue and has flattened me

i thank you for thinking of me tho'. and your kindness 🧡
 
Great day today falls under achievement.

Neighbor had warning brake light. He checked & sure enough the left brake light was out. He checked cost to replace.
WOW
Google Search

He asked if I could help him. Sure but you do the work. Two brake light bulbs in a pack from O'Reilly's with tax $9.74
15 minutes of remove & replace. Tested & now a happy neighbor.
