Oh the weather outside is frightening
the snow looks so intising
but the ice so slick you know
winter blows, winter blows, winter blows
I'm so tired of cold, snowy, icy weather...the snow is so beautiful, but the cold doesn't help my chronic pain issues any for sure, and the ice makes it really slick for walking, using a wheelchair, & for vehicles to get around outside...it will be so nice when we have warmer weather again...it will also make it easier for me to be able to take care of stuff outside of the house without having to arrange a ride to do it...I'll be able to run my erronds in my motorized wheelchair again... |

Yeah! Getting washer & dryer delivered this evening...gonna be so nice to be able to not have to wash clothes by hand anymore...getting all settles into new place and this is going to be a huge help in the process |

It's official, I'll be moving soon...Got the official word today that our rental application was approved for a duplex apartment community...Time for a fresh start with my fiance & family in a new place that will truly be ours... |

have had a great visit with family from out of town over the past few days...they'll be returning home soon so that means more "free time" to get on here again...lol...of course I do still have daily responsibilities to attend to (laundry, dishes, & cooking doesn't do itself, unfortunately)...
went to my orthopedics appointment today & found out that while I'm not currently being recommended for surgery, I do have some damage to my knee joint which will require a good deal of time to heal completely/properly...the entire surface of both my shin bone & thigh bone (where they meet to make the knee joint) are covered with micro-fractures (like a spider-web of tiny fractures)...they have me in a brace for support as the bones heal, but after the bones are healed I'll have to go through the whole process of re-strengthening the knee muscles which are used less while wearing the brace...back to the doctor in 2 more weeks & if there's still little to no progress (pain relief) then we'll have to consider alternate treatment options...time will tell |

It doesn't take much common sense to realize the stupidity in expecting children (not even teenagers) to be able to meet the exact same expectations as an adult...I mean really, who in they're right mind would honestly have the same expectations for a child under the age of 10 as they have for an adult...would you expect a newborn baby to eat steak & potatoes simply because everyone else in the house is eating it? Not likely, right?
On the same token, one should not expect an elementary age children to meet the same expectations or indore the same disciplinary measures as an adult....that's just plain crazy & completely unrealistic no matter whether you practice this lifestyle or not.... |

Being sick is a real pain!. I hate being sick almost more than anything....
On a better note, my mom will have her own place again soon...hopefully by this time next week, I can resituate how sleep arrangements are currently in my home to a better set up... |

Bake my first ever pecan pie this evening at my meeting...I actually baked 2 but the second one didn't turn out as good cause I accidently added the butter too soon...we also baked 4 pumpkin pies & made a cheese cake...but I just brought home my first pecan pie & one pumpkin pie home to add to our Thanksgiving meal |
|
|
|
|
going to pick up my new glasses in the morning.
getting ready to prepare a nice Thanksgiving meal this week. a 13lb turkey, stuffing, green beans seasoned with bacon end pieces, sweet corn, sweet potato patties, crescent style rolls, mashed potatoes & gravy, plus cheese cake, pumpkin pie, & apple crumb pie for desserts. may be a lot of left overs, but it'll all be good & left overs can be frozen to keep from spoiling before they can get ate up. |

Tried something a bit different for dinner tonight...instead of basic chicken alfrado, I added coliflower & broccoli to it...it turned out great...I don't usually care for cooked broccoli or coliflower unless it's smothered in cheese sauce, but it was great this way too... |

another tough day...pushed myself a it more than I probably should have doing some "house work" & my back's (& shoulder) really hurting now...I had an appointment today in the home & didn't want anything out of place...unfortunately, I didn't accomplish near as much as I had hoped to, but that seems to happen a lot lately (in spite of all my "multi-tasking).
on a better note, I got a call from someone today whom I was hoping I'd hear back from & got a chance to talk more while some free time was there...hope to continue our conversations & learn more about each other for sure...
anyway, off to attempt getting some sleep as I've got another long day ahead of me tomorrow...not sure I'm looking forward to this MRI I'm getting done, but won't have any real answers about my back until it's done... |
|
|
|
|
Well, MRI scheduled for the 15th...in the next 7-10 days I get new glasses (purple frames)... |

Have you ever felt like no matter how hard you try, it'll never be enough?
Have you ever wondered if you'll ever be good enough?
Maybe we all have days like that...or maybe it's just me...been one of those days & it gets so tiring always trying to appear strong for everyone cuz heaven forbid they know how I truly feel about things...I keep pushing to do all I can on my own even when I can see that I need something/someone I don't have...I have a need/desire to serve, & yet the one I need to serve illudes me still...is there really One out there for this stubborn one? Or is it simply a dream which is never to come true?
Time shall tell; time shall tell. |
|
|
|
|
So, I get to go in for fasting blood work in the morning & an MRI as soon as they can schedule it at the hospital...doc suspects I have a bulging, compressed disk in my back/spine which would be the primary cause of my chronic pain... |

~A mother's cry~
Today I shed tears for her;
The little girl I know still hurts.
You struggle alone, you think
Your agony, I truely see.
One day I hope you'll tell me,
What my insticts already see.
Don't be afraid,
You're not to blaim.
One day you'll realize
I love you more than my own life.

Also, for those who may be curious: I will hopefully posting a profile photo (or 2) this weekend. All just depends on how timing of tasks needing done work out. Also gotta get some assistance taking some updated pics of me that I am comfortable posting publicly. |

WOW! Just watch the movie ORPHAN & it was really good. Sure to get your attention & keep ya on the edge of you seat most of the time. It proves how important trust & honest communication truly are in any relationship too. In the case of the family in this movie, trust & honest communication could have saved the husband as well as prevented the near death of the son & the wife/mother.
