Hi Auntie Jan and OH Peeps~

Im not sure I like this new format-or how it mashes my words together-since I copy and paste from wordpad. Have lost too many posts the other way-but I dont care for how hard it is to read this!

I am not going to KC today. I cant. We got more freezing rain last night, followed by at least an inch of snow. Mike said the roads were as slick, if not worse this morning, then they were yesterday-BUT....I figured, if I HAD to go-I HAD to go-what could I do? So, I called the dr ofc first thing this morning-and talked to my nurse. I had spoken with her yesterday to see if there were ANY open appts for the rest of the week and she said they were completely booked up and since doc is opening her own private practice, she is only there for another week and then in January at her new location. Ok-so I called her this morning and she told me that it took her an hour and a half to get to work and that the roads there were really bad and she didnt recommend anyone travel if they didnt have to. I said-well, can you please check and make sure that she will at least fill my meds then-since I cant be there due to the weather and she said she was thinking maybe by Friday they could fill them.....PLEASE pray that they will have them by Friday.....or I will be a mess for sure. Im going to keep a positive frame of mind anyway!

As the day progressed, I did end up being in a little more pain than I had hoped to be in-but... I was still on such a high from the good day and a half I had had, that I just hopped on the couch and sat on the heating pad for a bit. I was determined NOT to get bad again...It just couldnt-I was having too much fun being pain free-LOL.....Hows that for determination? I really figured it was from the storm coming in-and even with all of my pain meds-nothing gives me relief when there is a front rolling in-nothing....now, that being said-I still wasnt off the charts pain wise. So, Its still an improvement-even though it wasnt exactly what I wanted-I will take it, and be friggin happy about it!

Since school was cancelled yesterday-and it is today as well (they actually posted the cancellation last night about 8 pm or so-before we got more freezing rain and snow!) I had the boys make their cornflake clusters and then they made their rice krispy treats-green of course-and in the shape of snowmen! LOL.....Jons idea. Today, we are going to get our Sugar cookies done-and I have some odds and ends to have them wrap up and some things for me to get done without them-LOL....like the Christmas cards and I have to get my secret pals package finished and mailed to her. She is going to love the things I have been collecting for her-for months now! LOL....

I am anxious to hear about Cors first visit and how it goes. Im praying for Sugar, her daughter, Chelle and Chelles friends children and family. How sad. My heart goes out to all of them. Death is never easy-but is so much harder on children and ecspically this time of the year! Im also praying for the church family and that situation. I sure hope it all works out well. For everyone else who is in pain (Bec and others) Or are sick (Jeanine, Andy, Sug and others) and traveling today-I am praying for all of you. Blanket prayers for the whole board and everyones needs. While I am on the subject-My SIL-his grandpa was admitted to the hospital and has a blood clot in his heart. He is in critical condition-if you could say some prayers for him and the family, I would appreciate it so much.

Well, peeps-I know this is short and sweet-but I have a lot of calls to make today and things to get done around the house~and I have to go outside and water and feed the animals-Im sure their water bowl is frozen over....I used to have a heated water bowl out there, but Sebastian, the 2 yr old chocolate lab-chewed not one, but two of them-so no more heated bowls for them! So, I just make sure and keep an eye on their bowl....or troft. Whatever you want to call it! LOL....

Thank you ALL for your prayers for me and my pain. I can feel them and they really do help! I appreciate it and I do feel like a miracle right now! All my love and prayers-Janet

I am late posting today. I got called in to work this morning. The snow totally missed us. I was in the gym so I do not know when it started but we got freezing rain and sleet so school got out early.I wasn't planning to go out this morning and had to rush when they called. I also found out that I can no longer play basketball. I never even got the ball high enough to hit the backboard. It has been a long time. At least I was moving around instead of sitting in front of the tv.

I am ready for the beach. Hey we can buy a tent and sleep on the beach. It stays warm down there all year.Now is a good time to go. Wish I was there. DH is at the beach but the carribean, he is in NC on business. Can't stop him from working.

I hope the weather makes up its mind, does its thing and moves on. Ice is not my favorite weather. My snow blower won't work on it and I had Dh get it ready for me to use. I haven't used it since I bought it last year. The predicted a hugh snow and we got none, I was prepared though. Still am just no snow.

Stay warm and dry.

Susie

Been Lurking and not posting - just haven't felt like it.  I am struggling with more numbness in my feet again.  Talked with my back dr and she was going to talk with the neurologist and the orthopedic dr about it and what course I should take.  I am so tired of the set backs - just when I start feeling better and gaining a little weight I end up taking steps back.  I am just tired of all this...  I keep telling myself the LORD only gives us what we can carry.  I am probably getting depressed as I don't even want to go anywhere for xmas but keep telling myself the grandkids expect me there so I have to go.

My dog has perked up a bit and seems better.

We are so busy at work at least my day goes fast.  I didn't get lunch today and forgot my protein drink so I need to get that in before bedtime I guess.

I guess I needed to vent - don't want to tell Dad about the numbness untill I find out what the drs have to say.

Stay safe - Sandy
