Today, the little spaniel goes to the groomer for her spring cut. Back to town we go, closer this time. I don't know what I will do for the two hours it takes this groomer. Usually, I will run errands during that time but today there are no errands to run. There is a boutique nearby but I don't need clothes and they are pricey. Maybe hang out at the library? Coming home to wait means an extra hour of driving and two gallons of gas. Nope.

Well it's been a weird day today... it was very sunny... then when I got to the next town the sun went in.... then 10 minutes later it came back out, and this went on for the 2 hours I was over there..literally minutes apart Blue sky... dark grey sky....
@GoodEnuff ..thanks for asking.. I got my steroid injection in my hip... it was done and over in just 10 minutes. I'm not gonna lie... it was very sore.. when she was feeling around my hip to find the most painful spot, before injecting anaesthetic... and I half jokingly cried out. ''I've changed my mind..''..she said.. do you want me to stop?.. I said no..please carry on.. a few minutes discomfort for months of pain relief... I'll take the deal...lol..
Anyway it doesn't hurt now .. and within a week there should be a pain free hip...
A few pics from the area immediately surrounding my Doctors surgery ( office)....the photos because of the weather pattern look like they were taken on different days but they were all taken within 30 minutes

My neighbour just knocked the door just now... and asked me ''haven't you got a birthday soon'' ?
I told him it was a few days ago... but how thoughtful is that ?

I need to get my cortisone shot in my left knee real soon. The doc also drains about 6 cc of yellow fluid. The last cortisone shot was about 6 months ago so I am due. I have both arthritis & a torn meniscus in my knee. I probably need to get a new knee but I have chickened out so far. Glad your shot is working HollyWell it's been a weird day today... it was very sunny... then when I got to the next town the sun went in.... then 10 minutes later it came back out, and this went on for the 2 hours I was over there..literally minutes apart Blue sky... dark grey sky....

I had both Knees done last December... one was painless.. the other was VERY painful.... I nearly shot through the ceiling when they administered the shot..... it was really agonising
I'm on the waiting list for a partial Knee replacement.. my right knee...( which was the one that suffered the agonising pain during the steroid jab)
I can walk fine I'm not crippled thankfully, I don't limp... except when the pain is bad.. but the pain is constant..like toothache

Baked a rhubarb pie today,,,hubby cut some this morning.
We had a frost last night which made the rhubarb limp.
Been awhile since I've made a pie crust or a rhubarb pie.
Had to get my cook book out & recipe for the pie.
Boy,, have I forgotten how to make a pie!
Cookies are much easier to make.
Hubby took a face plant in the wood lot!
Skinned up his nose & small stop on his forehead.
Broke his glasses.
He probably should get his eyes checked & new glasses.
I think he is afraid that he may loose his driver's license.
There is no public transportation in this little town.
We live on hill,, walking. down isn't bad,, its the walk back up .
Have a good day, everyone.
