And wouldn't you just know it? I was planning to mow today, went outside to feed, water and clean up tortoises, and it's overcast and slightly windy. So no mowing for me today. I'll clean the kitchen and wash the floor instead. Shucks!
Lol. You just had to tempt fate.[emoji16][emoji23][emoji23]

Good evening all. A glorious day. I cut the grass for the first time this year :)

My physio has decided that I must have an x ray to specifically look for an A/C (Acromioclavicular) Joint Spur or Tendon Calcification. I have refrained from Googling anything other than what A/C stood for... and now understand why neither my physio, nor my GP who I spoke to by phone to get referred, has written it longhand :D

The pain is much less, but the range of movement is still poor.

And then I had paperwork to do :( Tomorrow is due to be the hottest day of the year and I am scheduled to be in meetings from 9am-6pm. Not good!
I am glad the pain is less. If you do have an A/C problem what will that mean for you? I hope it does not mean any surgery. Good luck for tomorrow. I hope it passes quickly.

I have absolutely no idea and I am not going to google to find out. Ignorance is bliss as far as I am concerned. I said a couple of weeks ago that surgery was a final option to me after my back ops. I would rather manage the condition and the pain if I can.

I can relate. Well I really hope that it gets better without needing to go to surgery. And yes I love ignorance too sometimes.

You should take one Saturday and just try a few of the things that you have liked. It is fun, when you have the time or make the time.

I made some fairy houses last year. I saw it on Pininterest as well and it was great fun. I actually need to make another one for my niece, but have been putting it off. I'm thinking that I should do it this Saturday.

My brother-in-law lost a bet with my sister, and as a result had to help work in our mother's garden one weekend. He did not know what asparagus plants looked like and weed-eated her asparagus to the ground, thinking he was cutting weeds.
He got corrected. :p

Poor guy!! I bet he got mouth full!

I didn’t actually weed eat the tree or vines, I used the tree trimmers for those.
My husband hates when I use the weed eater. It makes him nervous but my area of weeds is small so I can handle it!

Hello, freedom! :D How is he settling in the preschool environment?

He is doing very well! The first week he had emotional time throughout the day but yesterday he told me all about school so I think he likes it! He really needed to be socialized with other kids. He doesn’t have any friends and the only kids he saw were at the park or library time and he wouldn’t engage them at all. Which is fine at 2 but now he is sorta forced too.

The legend of “The Time Mark Mowed Mom’s Asparagus Patch” now has a time-honored place with all the other family legends to be passed down for generations to come. [emoji38][emoji38][emoji38][emoji38]
He’ll never live it down!!! [emoji38]
