alive, but just barely

I am alive. Had to get some dental work done. More money that I don't have. Don't get me started or I will cry AGAIN Then the lortab made me so sick. Throwing up right after an extraction is the worse. Felt messed up all day. Headache bad. Food none. Water alittle.

Didn't walk this morning. This is the 1st time in months that have not walked. Did go to work, but just half day. I am not going to let this throw me off. Will sleep well tonight and tomorrow I will be as good as new.

Lots of good things to tell. Will have to wait till later, when I am functioning on all cylinders.

Thanks for all your comments. It is so nice to be missed. Thanks also for the encouragement to my kid. He is still gung ho! He rode the bike to work this morning.

never take your health for granted!

    I'm so sorry about your dental work. :( I hope you feel better soon. Don't feel bad about taking a day off from walking, just focus on getting well.

    ugh!

    That is exactly how I found out I was allergic to codeine! Woke up two days later with a dry socket. Be careful!

    Health concerns. Financial stress. Global warming.

    I'm all depressed now.

    C'mon, let's get this party started!

    Sending you hugs. Hope you're running on all cylindes tomorrow. Sometimes life goes up and down like a roller coaster, sometimes it's like a train going through Kansas. I hope that you have smooth sailing from here on out.

    Feeling you pain, Dana, as I was at the dentist yesterday too. It's still hurting and I have 2 more trips to go - Ugh! You'll get past this bump in the road like you have with so many in the past. Nothing can keep you down!

Contentment at last

Oh my goodness!!  I can't beleive how long it's been since I haave posted here.  So maybe things have changed.  The month I moved in with my son and daughter in law, a friend from high school asked if I wanted to be a "Granny Nanny" for her 86 year old mother.  It would mean moving back to my home town and living with the woman.  I didn't hesitate.  I had a good feeling about it from the start, so I went for it.  So, as of the first of October I have been residing in a cozy little home in Orem, UT.  The woman is just a sweetheart.  So easy to please and I feel so comfortable.  The pay is great too.  I like living with someone and it has just been a win/win.  I love my surroundings.  I love the mountains, the memories, being around my extended family.  My sister lives here, as does my aunt, a ton of cousins on both sides of the family.  Of course the downside is I am away from my kids and my grandkids.  I m...

A Traditionally Built Woman

I am listening to the latest No. 1 Ladies Detective Agency books. Blue Shoes and Happiness. They are sweet simple stories about a woman in Botswana Africa. She is a "traditionally built" woman. This means of course that she is heavy. I have never seen the show on HBO, but I love the books. In this book she decides to go on a diet. All her litle "insights" about going on a diet are cute....and so true. My favorite is how it's human nature that when you decide to restict ANYTHING you always end up wanting more of it. How she thought that was funny, until she herself was on a diet, now not so funny. How she gets crabby when she's hungry. I could so relate and it made me smile. People, we are more alike then we are different. The book is written by a white man, which I think is great. See, more alike then we are different. I have my grandkids birthday party today. My daughter, "C," is doing 2 kids in one party. They are still young enough that they don...
