Afternoon everyone!
The kids are finishing up lunch, so I get a little computer time. Two loads of laundry washing along with dishwashers running. Those two run most of the day anyway. Gotta love those "servants"! I am glad that today and tomorrow are at home days. Maybe I can get caught up. Don't know that much will get done though. I have been dealing with severe upper back and neck pain over the last week and the time in the dentist chair yesterday sent the pain into orbit!
I was in a car accident at 19 years old, didn't think I was hurt at the time of the accident, so didn't go to the hospital. You would have thought that I would have made sure, since the trunk of the car was in the backseat, but I was 19, what did I know? Well, by the time we figured out I was injured, it was a year later (too late for insurance to cover it). So for the last 16 years, I have dealt with bouts of severe pain. Our insurance doesn't cover chiropractic work, so it is something I have learned to manage on my own. I have had some chiro work done over the years, but our chiro (who had been one for over 20 years) says I am one of the few people he cannot adjust.
Chiro visits are so expensive. Zach had a swingset mishap and is having to go every week. That is running about $200 a month right now. Our chiro is a sweet guy and gives a major discount if you don't have insurance, otherwise it would be twice that much. At least it isn't throbbing pain this time, I just can't look side to side or up. It will go away, it always does after a week or two, hope its today!
Other than finishing up school, I have a gigantic mountain of laundry to put away. It will be even bigger with today's loads added in. Shouldn't be too bad. I fold and put into piles and then each child takes their pile and puts it away. I want to clean up my room a bit if I get time later.
Pam, enjoy that weather! It is kinda dreary here today.
Cheryl, maybe you should come over and hang out over at my house for a while. By the end of the day, I am asleep before my head hits the pillow and then wish I could sleep till noon! Hope you can get some restful sleep soon!
Erica, they sell something like that for trimming dogs nails without hitting the quick, but I cannot think of the name of it. I'm thinking it is called PediPaws, but not sure. If I remember it wasn't too expensive either. Bella needs a good trim right now too.
Funny how it takes me an hour to make a post. Dealt with 4 issues while typing this. Duty calls again. Off I go.
