Rainy Day Achey Day

I am exhausted today.   When you start listing the things you did prior to noon and it seems silly. So it's time to cook those beans, wash them clothes, work on my arts and crafts...(my favorite crochect I am so darn hook) sit my the fire and take some pain meds.  Happy Saturday

 

ME RELAXIN
 

Doctor Appointment

This speaks for itself ! Makes me smile....

I had an Dr. appointment yesterday.  I think I made him unhappy however, the sad thing is he still gets paid.   I told him no more biologics, none, nada, slich.  So it's sounding like he is kinda pissy with me...I swear I am the patient.  And he told me that my range of motion in my neck was because of fat.  What the heck! Yeah I said ok  and left.  Somehow seems that this Dr seems to know what is best for me yet he doesn't live my life.  I cannot move right now in bed when lying down because of my arms, shoulder and neck.  What do I do ...He ask me how do you want me to treat you.  I told him well the biologics make me feel worse than just being on pain medicine and predisone ....That's what I want.  I am done with the rest of it. Done! Tired and just want a pain med that I can take in the morning and then one at night.  And enough for a damn thirty day supply.  If I am to take twice a day then that means 60 pills not 57...yeah seems he doesn't know math either.  Never get a full script for the hyrdocodone.  Ridiculious absoultely! I don't know what kinda scam the state, pharmacy and the dr have going on but it affects my ability to function.  I was told you know how the state of Washington is with opiod prescriptions.  Why in the heck can't I have opiods over biologics! Why! I'll tell ya why its money all about the dollar...It really shouldn't be a concern of my Dr. who informed me that the reason for my range of motion in my neck was because of the fat in my neck. Going to read the book by Catherine Coulter "Whiplash" my mother gave it to me to read about the pharmaceutical companies and the government.  Yes of course this is fiction but perhaps their might be a bit of truth to story,

Excitement

Yesterday I took the below picture of our dining room nice isn't it.  I am just about finished with the baby's quilt.  It's hard with arthritic hands but it is coming along nicely.  I am so excited I learnt about fusible piecing this am through an online newsletter.  I should remember about fusing since I made a baby quilt for my granddaughter when she was born 9 years ago.  However, that might be asking alot from this grammie who struggles with brain fog caused by medicines for RA. 

Now that pup in the following photo oh that is Miss Morgan and she and her counterpart whom I have yet to up load a photo were caught sleepin on the couch this Friday morning.  Oh what am I gonna do! Washing they cover on the couch once again. 

Enjoy the beauty of the earth today and find kindness in your heart to share.

Our dining room has become my quilting area for the winter months.

Really it wasn't me I didn't sleep on the couch! Geez I get in trouble for everything
 

Tenderness

Webster's definition of tenderness is that of soft, delicate, fragile, physically weak, fond or loving.  Tenderness seems like a gentle word to express someone in mild pain.  The bruise was tender to touch however she was able to still able to walk.  It somehow is not an expression of extreme, chronic or severe.  Therefore, my skin could be tender to touch somewhat like that of when a fever is in the body.  Yet my pain is severe.  It's doctor day today going to have to explain my degree of pain.  Need a different type of medicine to heal my body of this rheumotoid arthritis.  Hoping for the best today. Lord have mercy...will return later.

Chilly Day

Good Day all,


Today is a somewhat chilly day for the pacific Northwest.  The temperature dipped to 34 degrees last night.  It is that time of year though, so glad I have a warm snuggly home.  We heat with a pellet stove so the living and dining room stay quite comfortable. Our others rooms can have a bit of a chill on the cold fall mornings.  Looks little it is going to stay cold today.  I have decided to take a little break from the quilting and have a fresh hot cup of coffee.  So a good time to write a little blog of events in our household this am.
