COLD DARK ROOM

[Ray--Opo]

You and me both on both points. I can't take most painkillers because of my aspirin allergy and now some doctors think I'm crazy because I won't or can't take what they are offering. I've actually been fired as a patient because of it. I would rather deal with pain then the allergic or side effects of some prescription drugs.

Cathie a few months ago I saw a report on a painkiller called Norco. That's what I take. This new Norco has no additives of aspirin type medication. I don't know if it's available I haven't asked my doctor. But we all know the slippery slope that painkillers can be. But in my case I have no option at this time.

I actually hate what's happening in our country. Although I can't take many of the pain meds I would still want them available to people that really need them. Young or old. Or what ever their station in life is.

I agree, now I have to go to the doctor every month to get a 30 day script. Before I could go every 90 days. So each visit I pay a copay for the visit. The random urine testing dosen't bother me. Because I take my meds I am not selling them. My first urine test the doctors office. When they sent it in. They didn't send my insurance information. I got a bill for over 500 dollars! I called them and straighten it out. But could you imagine someone who doesn't have good insurance or non at all.

 

[Ray--Opo]

Yes, you probably should! Especially while you are trying to get back on that leg

Thursday I had the therapy office adjust my schedule so I can get back to the meetings.

Good luck with all that Ray, especially the diet - it's hard going but keep your eyes on the prize!!

Thanks Lyn

Hola everyone!

JoesDad and I are on our travels again.

We are in Palma on the Spanish island of Mallorca for a weekend of much needed sunshine.

Postcards later hopefully

Have fun!

 

[Ray--Opo]

Glad you kicked the pain devil out. It can be hard to convince yourself, but you know it will be worth it in the end

Thank you!

I always told my PT that I was gonna get a T-shirt made just for him. It would say “Shut up and endure!”

I agree, my PT therapist is tough. My OT therapist is tougher.

I am still way behind here. I hope everything is going well with everyone. @Cathie G I think you're the one that posted you will only be here when you're at work. Maybe you can squeeze out some overtime being on TFO.

Good morning.. I am using the web version on my iPad this morning... not too bad, just not the same.. it will take me some time to get used to this.. Happy Wednesday!

The web version on the iPad sucks. The threads don’t disappear after you read them so you have to scroll through all of them.

Good evenooning everyone... we walked 17.3km/10.75 miles so far today and we still haven’t been to dinner which is another mile each way!

It’s been beautiful walking along the harbour to San Carlos castle

 

[JoesMum]

then we went inland to the studio of artist Joan Miró where we saw terrapins (sliders)

and then up to Castell Bellver. (Which translates as good view... and it has an excellent view)

Lol, that was me. But I had an email for on of the threads I follow and I was able to connect through there. Whoop whoop.

I see it's a popular stop for cruise ships (third picture down).

It's really a shame 'we' got away from building houses, etc. with bricks. Just imagine how long those buildings have endured! Yes, they're starting to show a bit of wear and tear, and crumbling a bit, but they're still in WAY better shape than a wood house of the same age would be. I just LOVE looking at those old buildings. I live in the wrong country.

Ok. Garage sale didnt get a whole lot of visitors. Lots going on in this time of year. Fall gardening, college football games, nice cool weather, etc.

All that said, we had about 25 visitors, we sold about $130.00 of “stuff” today.

You could possibly take a Screen Shot.
