It has been awhile here since I was on this blog. I know I am only on it when I want to complain about my aches and pains.
I guess today is no different. Well for now at least I think it is no different.
I just took a vacation. You know the one were you drive and drive and sit on your butt all day. Then get out for a while and check out the hot spots. Well mine was spent just a little bit different.
I spent it on the back of a motor bike. With all the problems I am having I did this. For almost two weeks. Legs stationary in one position riding behind my hubby while he managed the roads of Washington, Idaho, Wyoming, Montana, and South and North Dakota.
The weather was great. Didn't get any rain on our trip, but the weather was dang hot. Sun beating down on the back of your neck and hoping you don't get sunburnt.
Well I can say I had a good time and saw allot of places, but my legs and back are telling me a different story here. I was doing actually pretty good before we headed out. I thought that maybe I had found something that worked for me. Well it was working for a bit anyways, but as the days rolled on I started to get sorer and sorer with every time I had to get back on the bike.
More then enough times I had to get off and stretch a bit. They became more and more frequent as the days went on. I was starting to wiggle so much on the back that he had to pull off and ask what I was doing. Put a bit of a damper on the trip.
Well I did have a good time but my
legs are still telling me about sitting for so long. I started back to work again here yesterday. It wasn't easy to be standing all day in one place and serving customers. I can start getting pretty cranky when I hurt allot. Not good when you are suppose to smile all day and be happy. Geeez!!!
If you want to hear about my trip just check out my other blog of old Harley biker broad and other vacations. There are a few blogs on my trip on there.
Today another doc appointment. I have been poked and probed so many time. The thing is they keep saying I am doing good. Well maybe you should explain that to my body because it is telling me a different story here. I would really love to start thinking about the disability thing here as I have enough trouble with being at work all day. But they keep saying I am not ready for that yet. Well when do you think I will be ready when I am dead? Mind you there are some days when I feel pretty good by they are far and in between. With the arthritis and the sjogrens and the fibro I am always in some sort of pain. I am trying to keep it upbeat but just some days would be better to just crawl into bed and cover myself up and never come out. I know that doesn't accomplish anything and life has to go on. Just turn off the world and let me get off here and start over. If only for a little while.
Well
In the next few weeks I have to get back to the dentist and finish off what they started. A cleaning and one more cap to work on. At least it isn't much anymore. Hurray for that. Also check out some
Work he did at the front to get my teeth looking good. I think he made on e of my front teeth too long and they don't just feel right when I snap them together when I eat. So he is going to have to shave it down a little. It looks right now like I have beaver teeth on the front. At least my smile does look allot better. Took allot of money to fix it up. And will probably take allot more to keep it that way.
Today I am seeing an eye specialist. To check about my dry eyes and
Make sure that nothing is going wrong there. Dilating my eyes is no thrill either. You can't drive for a while. Makes for a very boring day afterwards.
Then Wednesday is off and hopefully will be able to do a woodworking and get on with some projects I have on the go. Then it is back to full fledged
work fun fun fun. I just hope I can stand this work thing for another couple of years and then maybe retiring and enjoying life to what I can do. Which is sounding more and more like I won't be doing too much of anything because the pain will just get to be too much for me. Well I am hoping I can survive this all and do what I can when I want. I don't want to end up being we're I can't doa dang thing.
Well that is enough whining for now I know you really don't want to listen to it anyways.
