I first need to send a shout out to a couple new followers….Ronda..Ronda is Erik's wife…and they each have their own blog…Fat chance McGuvyer would do that…At his typing speed, he could only publish once a month…Also a big “hey” to the Beautiful Dees….all “D” names, living in Utah..with a lovely home!!
I did get to the foot guy Monday..The Doc took a look at my foot and just shook his head, saying the words that were music to my ears …NO SHOT!!! Instead, he gave me a series of steroids and Naproxen (500 mg Ibuprofen) , which is EXACTLY what McGuyver got for his back problem in Mississippi!! Oh well… sore back, feet, head, legs……pain, is pain, is pain….He also recommended physical therapy…not sure I’m in for that..If this doesn’t work, an MRI is in order….and I don’t think my insurance is in for THAT!!!….Time will tell….I’ve always wanted to try out for the NFL..these drugs might just push me over the top…the Chicago Bears could use me..
Monday when I took Sosa out for his constitutional I took my camera….There was some neat “icing” photo opportunities that I didn’t want to miss …it was melting fast…
OK, OK, I now KNOW I’m not Ansel Adams…..Keep in mind that I was taking photos while trying to hold Sosa on his leash, which was wrapped around my hand and leg….and he had just spotted one of our Al Qaida squirrels….If only I had a photo of THAT acrobatic act!!!
The weather yesterday was tolerable…starting out on a cold 20 degree note with 30 mph winds…But it did manage to get up to 40 degrees by 3PM, so I’ll take it….
Kelly and Cindy came to pick up Sosa Monday late afternoon…He was so happy to see them he wouldn’t leave Cindy alone….
NO…REALLY???? GOOD GOD!!! WHAT A PIECE OF WORK THAT DOG IS…I THINK HE TOLD HER THAT WE MISTREATED HIM…JUST LOOK AT HIS “SADSACK” ACT….THAT LITTLE LIAR…
WHAT A PATHETIC PHOTO…
IS HE ACTUALLY LYING HIS FURRY LITTLE MUTT HEAD ON MY TABLE??? YES…HE IS….IF ONLY I HAD GOTTEN HIM TO WATCH “THE DOG WHISPERER”……
I am still in pursuit of my missing family members, but found a possible gentleman on my Dad’s side of the family..I am awaiting a copy of the obituary being sent to me from The Tyler Texas Library…When I think of the many trips we made right near there (in Eastern Texas)…and never guessed that there was a tombstone I needed to see….and a family cousin who might be buried there…I am really excited to find out if the man is whom I THINK he is….
OK, not much to blog about..I’ve just about gotten as much “blog fodder” out of Sosa and the weather as you poor readers can bear….I shall not drag this on any longer…See ya in a couple..and thanks for tuning in!!
Boy the difference a hundred miles of latitude makes, no ice hear and a low of 34 last night. I lit a candle to Our Lady of Warm weather to look down upon us favorable.Who's the Patron Saint of diesel fuel? Still waiting for the UPS truck, your on the list for the drawing. Be safe out there, and go easy on the drugs, I have a Miller high life prescription for pain here. Sam & Donna...
ReplyDeleteThat picture of Sosa is so funny...reminds me of our dogs when we leave them...but that is the look they have when we GO! Good ICY shots too. Don't worry about the steriods making you NFL material. I have been on them for years and all I got was belly fat...now isn't that good news LOL!
ReplyDeleteOh goodie, we can be steroid fatties together....LOL! I just finished my course of steroids for the tinnitus and dizziness I've been having. Didn't make a bit of difference but at least now we know it wasn't an infection. LOL!
ReplyDeleteAin't gettin' old just a kick?!?!?
ReplyDeleteYeah, a kick in the Ass!
ReplyDeleteDid you just notice all of the Donnas in this first few comments?? and now I added another!
ReplyDeleteSorry to break the run of Donna's here on the blog. Those ice photos of the trees are really nice.
ReplyDeleteI'd take the pills over a needle in the foot any day!
nice job on the 'ice pictures' today!!..sorry to hear that Sosa got in the way of your 'ansel adams shot'!!.dang dog!..I am sure he had many a 'tail to tell' on the way home!!!
ReplyDeleteOh, thank you SO MUCH for the laugh! I love your blog.
ReplyDeleteLovin' it!
Heal quickly!
Sosa is still perturbed you wouldn't let him warm his buns in your bed on a dark and stormy night ;p
ReplyDeleteHave you ever considered more alternative medicine for your foot? My pop has the same thing as you & accupuncture has helped. He goes to the school to get them to practice on him for cheap.
