Awe, I feel bad for you Dianne! Picture? :) jk
I hope your recovery time won't be too long. When do you go back for follow up?

It is boiling hot here in Mich. We don't usually get this hot this early! For some reason my sciatic is giving me trouble today! I have a huge exercise ball I have been sitting on to stretch my arse muscles. Trouble is, Zoie wants to attack it every time I am on it! I am petrified she will sink her teeth in it while I am bouncing! Can you just see that image lol!!

I am making Jim's favorite Mex. meal for Father's day. I better get started. It takes a lot of prep work. Have a great day all!!

Dianne/Denver said...

Hi...I'm not feeling any better. I called dr today and he had me send a picture because it looks awful...face, lip and eye. He said to alternate heat and cold. This is horrible

Just_Lin said...

Dianne I feel so bad for you. I hope you are feeling better today. The bruising will take a while to go away. Are you staying indoors and getting cabin fever on top of everything else? I hope the pain meds are at least giving you relief from the pain.

Just_Lin said...

Mary Oh, you make me want Mexican food so bad. What did you cook for Father's Day?

I'm sorry about your sciatica. LOL @ Zoie possibly popping that exercise ball while you're on it. Sorry, but it is a pretty funny visual.

I didn't go walking today but I did do a fair amount of housework including vacuuming. My sciatica is not to happy about that. Today was the day that my dog got to go run around in the hills with Sue and her canine friends so I don't feel guilty about not walking the dog today. Actually. I don't usually feel bad about that, anyway. When we don't walk we play fetch in the backyard or "keep away".

Mary/MI said...

Dianne, I wish I could kiss all your owies away!! You have been through so much with those teeth!! I pray this will be the end of it!! Keep your spirits up. Soon you will be showing off a beautiful smile!!

JL, I wish I could let Zoie run around unleashed. We live in the country and have a lot of land, but she is way too curious of the road!!
My sciatica is better today. I didn't walk the dogs too far so as not to irritate it again!

Jodi!! How are you??

Dianne/Denver said...

Well, my swelling is down some. The part that hurts is the other side that will have to be done too. I'm so scared about it. Yes JL, I have huge cabin fever but sleep a lot with the pain pills. I mostly take them so I'll sleep. I'm thinking I might venture out on Thursday. The bruising is stil terrible. Air conditioner electrician came out today and added $2000 to the already $10000 bill. This whole thing is making me sick.

Jodi, did your headache stay gone? Where are you? I might have to go nudge you.

Mary and JL, glad you are both feeling better. Quit vacuuming..it's overrated!! My house still is messy from vacation. My friend brought a quiche over to us. It was very nice of her.

Barb, I'm looking for you too.

Just_Lin said...

Mary I'm glad your sciatica is better. Mine wasn't too bad today but I didn't go for a walk. I did some exercises at home, instead, and played for a while with the dog. It probably didn't counteract the dinner I went out and had with my friends. LOL I did okay, though, as far as my daily points go with Weight Watchers. Last week was really tough for me with the cheese steaks and the Italian dinner but I still lost 1 1 /2 pounds for the week.

Just_Lin said...

Dianne That was nice of your friend to bring over a quiche for you. Is Louis getting take out every night?

Is that $10,000 plus another $2,000 for air conditioning? OMG! What are they doing? Taking everything out and starting over from scratch? That seems terribly high. Of course, I don't need air conditioning where I am so what do I know?

Just_Lin said...

Barb and HOdi Where for art thou?

Dianne/Denver said...

JL, yes our unit is really too small for this so fixing it and putting in a new one. I'm up late going over bills that are coming in from vacation snd stressing

Mary/MI said...

Dianne, stressing is not good for your recovery! Are your DDS and your preconditioning guys related? js!!

JL, I am glad you are still on your WW track! My biggest culprit is sweets!! I can eat healthy all day, then hit the ole cookie jar!! Jim and Matt love their sweets too! I try not buying them,but the guys protest lol! I have a book coming in from Amazon tomorrow that deals with sugar cravings. I will check it out. I know what works for me most of the time. If I have plenty of protein early in the day, I have no sugar cravings. I just get bored with protein powder drinks and eggs!

Did Barb and Hodi go into hiding? come on out Hooters!!

sacBarb said...

Hello Hooters

Sorry I have been MIA. I've had a lot going on this week including a dentist appointment today for a cleaning and check-up. I told the dentist about a tooth ache I had for a few days before I went to San Diego (actually while I with my high school friends in LV) so he took an xray of the tooth and referred me to the endodontist. That's right, the root canal doc! The receptionist called the root canal guy's office to set up an appointment for me and they asked if I could go in today, so off I went. The result is I have an appointment for a root canal (my third) on July 1. So, Dianne, I will be feeling your pain!

sacBarb said...

J/L, Congratz on your weight loss. I still haven't signed up with WW, but I do plan to any day now!

sacBarb said...

Mary, I am hungry for MEX food!

Jodi said...

I'm here!!! I went to my Dr last week, per my therapy guys, and he said I should have an MRA. It was an emotional appointment. Dr. Okada is retiring this summer. We started seeing him when I had Sam. Between that and thinking about my Mom, I was a mess!! My MRA is scheduled for Friday (tomorrow). Kinda scared, but it will be good to rule out anything really bad. I guess there's no hiding the crazy now. Lol!!

I've had some rebound headaches since my last therapy session. Yesterday was bad. Thankfully Alex had someone that could work my shift for me.

Jodi said...

DIANNE - Thank you for the email. I know....bad owl ;)

Jodi said...

DIANNE - I hope you are feeling better. I hate thinking about you in all that pain. Wish I was closer to give you a (((hug)))!!!

Jodi said...

SLIN - Congrats on the weight loss!! I quit taking the Gabopentin last week. My sciatica had become a non issue. I've already lost the weight I had gained on it. My knee is also so much better. Pretty much back to the size it should be. It's been nice to be able to move again!

Jodi said...

MARY - I'm here!! I got a chuckle thinking about Miss Zoie and popping your ball! I'm the same with carbs/sugar! I feel so much better if I stay away from it. And you're right about the protein. That works for me, too!

Jodi said...

BARB - Good luck with your root canal. Will your son be able to take you?

Jodi said...

I best go hoist n' rinse. I work 6-2 today. Should be interesting. Milissa started training Peggy how to do books yesterday. I hope I don't have too much to fix/undo this weekend. Ugh!!!

Just_Lin said...

HOdi I'm glad there will be follow up on that headache business. I'll be thinking about you. LOL @ no hiding the crazy now.

As for the books at work, perhaps Peggy will end up being much better at it than Melissa. Wouldn't that be nice to have someone there who can do it properly besides you? If you weren't working there, they'd be in deep doo doo.

Just_Lin said...

Barb I'm sorry you have to have a root canal. When did dentists stop doing them themselves, anyway? All of mine were done by my regular dentist. No reason to pay for a second exam by another dentist.

The other day I discovered that Smart Ones frozen entrees are Weight Watcher's so I bought several of them yesterday. I hope they taste decent as they will come in handy for those nights I don't want to do a lot of cooking. I'll still make a veggie or salad to go along with them. They were on sale right now at Safeway; some at 2/$6 and others at 2/$7.

Dianne/Denver said...

JL, Ask me anything about WW. I've been going forever. I missed this week with my dental issues but had that large vacation gain. I. Going to go tomorrow to one by my house just to see what I lost through this whole thing. The food is ok. Pictures are better than they r but not bad. It's a good program if you follow the points. I've had previous great success. I don't track and that's my problem. It's the key.

I finally showered and sent out today and it felt good. I'm not wearing my new temp teeth because I'm afraid to put it in. I go on Tuesday and I'll have them help me. She said to take it out for eating and sleeping. Well...that's awkward at lunch. I get hair and nails done tomorrow after a month tomorrow too...thank goodness I was able to reschedule them.

Jodi, I'm glad you're getting things looked at tomorrow. It will just make you feel at rest. I'm sorry you've had such a hard time. We were all missing you and hoping you were okay.

Kayla had a college day scheduled out of town for tomorrow but cancelled. She cancelled bringing me dinner last night too unless Jake-ass could come and I said no.

Em turns 16 Sunday but can't get her license as she left her purse at someone's house and learners permit is in it. It will be a month to get an appt "if" she ever gets it back.

Barb, hope it doesn't hurt too bad. At least you won't be purple like me. Grr on teeth things...pain, scary and costly!!! I'm glad it's not a week ago tonight that's for sure.

Air all done and cooling house for a million dollars. And now the stock market is going to tank tomorrow. Great! Night

Just_Lin said...

Dianne It seems the stock market is already tanking. This is stressful to me, too.

Mary/MI said...

The stock market is now negative for the YEAR! Oye Vey! I am hearing that some of the peeps that voted for the exit are rethinking what they did! Geesh!

My son is so happy. He just completed his first week at General Motors. He has been training for an equipment operator like hi-lo driver. He did that in the Marines and for 12 yrs at another job. He won't be making the big money for a while, as G.M. has gone to a "tier" type job placement. You stay at low levels longer than before. He is just glad to get his foot in the door.

I went visiting a sweet elderly couple today near my home town. The Lady is the one that wrote my families history. She invited me for a light lunch. She had lasagna,cucumber salad,garlic toast, ice tea, and homemade coconut cream pie! Unfortunately one of those did not agree with my tummy! Let's just say it came close to a "depends" kind of afternoon!!! My tummy has finally settled down thanks to "Pepcid AC!!

Dianne, I am so glad you are getting out. I didn't realize you had more work to be done. I hope it's not too soon! You need to fully recoup!

DAM, Zoie needs to do her thing.......

Dianne/Denver said...

Today I got all fixed up ...pretty nails, grey hair gone...whew...feel better. I weighed in and lost 16 pounds in a week!!! Wow, hard way to do it.

Air conditioner electric guy came out today and charged us $1000 less than estimate., so that was nice. That's about it. I hope your tummy is better MARY.
