Btw, i bought goats milk, i read it had many benefits (for humans & dogs)
It tastes soooo wholesome (this is the only way i can describe it. Lol) its weird.
Does anyone drink goats milk?

I drank 1 liter a day of that when I was pregnant. Though that was from a supermarket so not exactly the same as fresh one.

No to goats milk.... but in Kuwait and in Riyadh I was able to get some fresh, camels milk. Very very strong, different taste, alledly full of all kinds of good things..

The only time I like any kind of milk is when I'm eating cake or cookies.

Good morning all. So I need to spend today following my physio/osteo’s orders and keep my shoulder moving. And the day will finish with a meeting.

In between I need to visit the supermarket.

It’s grey and dull outside.

I think I’ve earned a coffee and a treat while I’m out... I shall go in search of cake to brighten my day :D

What was your diagnosis?
I just went to sports medicine last week and I have “frozen” shoulder. It can take up to 3 years to heal. I could do. Cortisone shot for pain if I chose too. I’m not ready for that.
My dr said to keep using mine too.

Muscles with long names in tension basically. The shoulder isn’t frozen, but I have been told it will be if I don’t do as instructed. I have been threatened with cortisone too, but will do my best to avoid it!

Cortisone shots are painful..
Apparently alot of us in the CDR have shoulder problems. I have a torn bicipital tendon sheath which allows the bicipital tendon to become herniated. To fix it completely I would need surgery. But when it becomes herniated I can get shot directly in it that helps it to go back down... Or something like that.. hard to remember all the terminology.

How lucky.
A camera is indispensable to any conservationist, and by my standards that’s what you are now.
Lol. Thank you. I 'll take it. And after yesterday I am so happy I have the camera. Checked on them every single chance I got today. Even though it was only enough time to log in and then check it was all okay and then log off. The only problem I had was when the glass misted up, I couldn't see too well as the camera is on the outside of the enclosure. So I have to figure a way past that.

Hope the 'moving' went well, and that found some yummy cake.

Hi Lena, I'll have some of that cake while I'm waiting to go out. I got a notification that two shrubs I have ordered for my garden are due for delivery between 12.30 and 14.30 so I will have to stay in a bit longer.

I have ordered a Flowering Currant and a Winter Honeysuckle

Once they are in the next plants to order will be English Lavenders and Joe's Sedum Spactabile :)

I'm quite excited about this... even if I will have to get JoesDad to do the spade work :D
That should be the best part, the fact that you will get to enjoy your plants and you didn't have to do the spade work.[emoji6]

Oh dear. That doesn't sound good at all.
