Amy and I talked over the phone as we readied our suitcases and food for the trip. Excitement was everywhere! Who would be there? Did we know any other attendees? Russell contacted Amy. He would also be there. He lives in California. Cool. I hadn't seen him since we went to AOF. My flight left on... Sign in to see full entry.

We have lift off tomorrow! I'm so excited and yet I am freaking out because I am trying to figure out what kind of financial mess I am coming home to. I thought of cancelling my trip but the airline will only give me a credit not a refund. The airbnb is already paid for as well. I'm packing food to... Sign in to see full entry.

My friend was none worse for the wear. Right after I arrived a nurse came in. She was with him about 15 minutes. He was in pain but at least she didn't go out of her way like the other one did. He was moved back to the other side. Hopefully since he is on the other end of the hall he will have... Sign in to see full entry.

I woke early today. It was sooooo cold. Brrrrrr. I did my PT exercises and my fitme exercises. I also did 10 minutes on the treadmill. Ugh! Maybe I shouldn't have. They didn't move my friend to a different room as of when I stopped by to see him today. Some nurse who really should choose a different... Sign in to see full entry.

I was so out of it this morning that I didn't even hear the door shut when Seth left for work. This put me late getting up. I need to go to sleep earlier. I was late in motivating out of the bed to exercise. They started me on eye and head exercises since I keep getting dizzy and having problems... Sign in to see full entry.

That lovely sciatica kept letting me know it still there. Off and on it's been acting up since last night. I went online this morning to see what I could find jobwise. I found Eileen. That's an app where you can go into stores and take pics of product placement. It's not a lot of pay but right now... Sign in to see full entry.

I had my appointment with the neurologist yesterday. She gave me more meds. She added more directives for the therapists. I go back to see her in a month. I took all the bedding out of my car yesterday. The laundromat was basically empty. I washed all of it and put it in a large plastic bag in my... Sign in to see full entry.

I woke up last night almost screaming. My knee had a severe jolt of pain and then my right leg let me know it wasn't happy either. I had this sinking feeling that I wouldn't be able to walk. I didn't try at that time. I waited for the pain to subside enough to fall back asleep. Yay! This morning... Sign in to see full entry.

I feel like I am back in Missouri - freezing at night and huge temp span in the day. UGH! I moved here to get away from that! I'm bundling up with two layers and a hat. I burrow under the covers. I had my MRI and X rays today. I can't wait to see what they show. I never heard of this before. You... Sign in to see full entry.
