Re: Ok, I am up and going to read a little...To Judy

[Guest guest]

Thanks Judy.I am up this morning at 11 am. I usually drag out of bed by 930.

My ribs hurt from coughing. jeeezzzz. I think I at least slept more last

night. Believe it or not, some simple vicks vapor rub helped some. (the oldest

trick in the book). LOL.

love ya,

I'm with you! I usually enjoy pushing the shopping cart down a couple of row

at WallyWord or the Dollar Store but lately that is impossible. This hip and

back are in bad shape and if the cold air hits it I'm getting muscle spasms and

hitting the floor. I have been in the house for weeks except going to the er.

This Tuesday, my dad picked me up to visit with my mom for a few hours. MY MOM

DROPPED ME BACK OFF ON THE WAY TO HER BIBLE STUDY.(Sorry hit cap lock) Had to

take meds and sleep after that. On Thursday had to go and do paperwork for my

husbands retirement. That was tiring but insisted on going to see my son and

grandson who live about 5 minutes from the union hall. The boy is so like his

father. Not just in looks but in grace. IOne of the nicnames I had for my son

was Bumpy because he was always falling. His feet bwould go faster than the rest

of his body and he would fall. The baby is 28m and was running and fell putting

his teeth through his bottom lip. He seems to

be a fast healer like his dad too. He is just so active. He is very bright but

doesn't talk that much. He doesn't need to with 3 older siblings and 2 parents.

They are finding a new apartment as theirs is going up for action as the

landloed is in forcloser. it seems that everyone is having difficulties with

this current economy.

After my husband retires, we will be able to go see my other grandchildren that

live in PA. I miss them so much. The little one will be 2 in April and is

sisiter was6 in October. They just grow so fast.

You try and get somemore rest. I know how you are feeling as that is how I was

the lasy few years I worked. I hope you can hang in there and not have to stop.
