Melvin Up the Taterhole
I am TOTALLY THRILLED for your PBB (Pitbullbyotch! lol) I know you are terribly deserving of the good karma coming your way.
JUST POPPING IN with a couple updates.
1. I'm still alive and kicking. Preparing for a trip to FL, leaving on the 6th EARLY. I will be doing all the driving as it is just my mom and me on this trip. Leaving Saturday, staying at a Motel 6 about 2/3rd of the way there, and then pull in to her house on Sunday around noon. Then she has a DRs appointment on Monday. Then another DRs appointment on Tuesday. Then she wants me to run her over to her friends houses to see them cause she doesn't want to inconvenience THEM while we are in town. (Lets not forget that during this time, she is supposed to be packing up her taters to bring up here to LIVE.... which means I'm gonna have to turn into Saggy Naggy to get her to get taters done.... OR have to do it myself. Man, I can't. The fibro, the new Prozac doseage, the foot*(info coming up), I literally cannot physically do it all by myself. Debating on trying to hire a day laborer through Craigslist but I know my mom will slip up and mention the house(ES, 2 of them), will be empty ll wnter and... I mean really, you can only trust a stranger so far. And no, no friends and no family excpet me.
2. The PIC and DH will be staying here to take care of the 4 mutts, 3 cats and chickunz. I have literally GAGGED at the sight of all the crapola they have bought to *junk food out* while I'm gone. I absolutely feel safe in believing that I will come home, walk through the front door, and find them in their white boxer briefs (now stained to hell and back with gawd knows what), plates of chips, dip, pizza rolls, cheesy pretzel bites, bowls of ramen, chicken nuggets, waffle fries, ice cream OUT THE BAZOOKA, ravioli, cookie crisp cereal.... sorry.... gotta stop.....
3. My DR. upped my Prozac to 40 mgs starting on the 26th of Sept. As it did before, it makes me sleepy but I'll work through it. I kinda already feel happier though.
4. SAW THE FOOT DR TODAY @TexasSam. Xray and an ultrasound showed 2 things. I have a small calcium build up bone spur, but that's not what's contributing to the pain. Apparently, the fluid in your plantar fascia is normally in the 3mm-4mm range. Mine measured out at 9.4mm. SO, I received a cortisone shot (THE ONLY THING MORE PAINFUL I HAVE EVER FELT WAS AN EPIDURAL), and he wiggles the needle IN MY FOOT, like he's stirring a pot.
The nurse kept saying *breath.breath* and I told her *I AM BREATHING! I'M JUST CONCENTRATING ON NOT MOVING AND NOT KICKING HIM IN THE FACE!!!*
So, I'm off my foot for 2 days, and yet I still have to pack the car for our trip. STDH is taking Fizzgig to have 2 tires replaced and a rotation done tomorrow at noon. Guess I'll get the small amount of clothing packed up. Taking a BUNCH of shelf stable food, cause my mom has a habit of all of a sudden *NEEDING* something to eat, and not snack stuff.... gotta go through an Arbys or Burger joint or something..... but I got her beat this time.
Hugs, kisses and ALL MY LOVE to you all. Miss you all like brazil nuts!
