IT IS FRIDAY!!!! Yayy. I have a busy weekend ahead, running shoe shopping for Jarrod, two kiddies birthday presents to get, one party to go to and a photo shoot for my Torts. The wind is pumping here, but the sun is shining.

I went to the doc, yesterday because for the last two to three/four months (I forget exactly how long - it always seems forever and time merges for me for these things) I have had a pain in my right upper arm. Every time I moved it in a backward direction I will get a sharp pain. I thought that maybe that because it might be a strain or tear or something, that it was not healing as I am right handed. But the doc said last night that it should not be taking that long to heal if it is a muscle injury. So he thinks that it is either a problem with my rotator cuff OR it could be a problem with my neck either a pinched nerve or spinal problems (seen as how I already have spinal problems at the lower part of my back). So he gave me a quarter zone injection. If the pain goes away with the injection then it is the rotator cuff which is the problem, if not then they have to do further tests to see if it is the spine or neck/pinched nerve which causing it. I am really hoping that it is the rotator cuff which is the issue and hopefully the injection helps and sorts out the problem. As I do not look forward to having to go through the whole process that I went through with my back. Besides being expensive, it probably also means that I will be having these sorts of problems for the rest of my life and having discs going bad on me. So please hold thumbs and think good thoughts that it is nothing serious.

Now that the bad news is done, I will give you the good news: IT IS FRIDAY!!;)
I only saw this today. It is Saturday. I'll be sending best wishes hopes and prayers to you caws...

Worked on the pond all morning.
It’s coming along.
It’s a beautiful day!
Rain is coming Friday, the day my daughter and I drive up to Disneyland.
I guess the lines won’t be long.

How are your art projects going?
Been creating alot of smaller pieces instead of finishing my big one.
I really need to finish it though- I've got another BIG piece already in mind. It's gonna be a [emoji217]! I'm thinking a life size portrait of a Galapagos. Hubby will have to help me mount the paper to a board... I should order more mounting glue[emoji15]

For those UK birders out there..

  • Nature lovers across the UK are being urged to take part in the Big Farmland Bird Count (BFBC), which is back for the sixth successive year. The nationwide citizen science project calls on farmers, land managers and gamekeepers to spend 30 minutes spotting species on their patch of land between the 8th and 17th February 2019.
