I The glorious, beautiful days continue with days in 80s. I think it will cool to 70s with rain this next week.
Tommy and I had our flu shots today. I did not feel the injection at all. Now, it does hurt. We did the grocery shopping at Publix. Tommy put sweet potato pie, Doritos, and ice cream on the list. So, I obliged him. I got him a Gingerbread Halloween house to decorate. he seemed to like it.
I refused to eat spaghetti because we had no parmesan cheese. The next day I paid an exorbitant can for $6. The next day it was on sale bogo for 2 for $6. I hate it when that happens. He put bscb for $5.39/lb. No way! Too expensive.
Today, orthopedist inquired about my bleeding toe the podiatrist worked on. sigh. He wants to operate on my back or send me to someone who will operate. He suggested in the meantime to use a pain patch. Anyone use a Salon Pas patch or anything else. I refused any pill for spinal pain.
I went to bed at 9 pm tonight and got up at 11pm. I would have gone to bed earlier, but Elkhorn is back. I hope I can go back to sleep soon. You see how going to bed at a "normal" time is of no help to me?
Some of the pain patches are very hot on the skin. Please be careful with them if you do try one. If it starts to burn, I would take it off.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the warning. I will be careful.
DeleteWe have Salonpas and they do provide temporary relief for back pain. I haven’t used them personally, but those in the family who have, say they work.
ReplyDeleteBy the way, I never commented on your bed. I love it. I wouldn’t paint it, though. I think patina and wear and tear on furniture like that adds to its character. The kids and I laugh at how I shudder when we go thrifting or antiquing, and I come across antique furniture which has been refinished in chalk paint. But that’s just me.
Does the new frame work with your adjustable base?
Local store is having a one day sale a week from Saturday, and I believe BSCB are $1.79/lb. Looks like I will be heading out early to get some.

DeleteThanks. Tomorrow, I get Salon Pas! I do love the bed but that is fake patina. I hate the adjustable base bed. So, will get mattress for much less and more comfort. People should be put in stocks in the public square for using chalk paint! That is a great price for bscb. I would rearrange the freezer to be able to buy lots.
