I can promise all of you that no matter where we are, or where we meet, I will NOT climb with you!

I would love to visit N Cal, The Oregon coast (anywhere), Washington coast and even up into Canada. Dee, you should research some races for us. Fall, or winter travel is best for travel for us.. hint, hint.

Well... for me I have gotten 2 different kinds of injections. I have the arthritis and compressed disks in my spine, which is painful, then the problems there also have the sciatic nerve going down my right leg pinched, so I constantly have a burning/tingling/numb feeling in my right leg.

I have gotten both an epidural, for the pain, and a steriod injection, for the inflammation. I do get some relief from the injections, but honestly I wish it were more. Where I go they will do up to a series of 3 injections, then you must wait 6 months (from the first injection) before you can start the series again. I had my injections in June/July, and felt good then, but my right leg is already bothering me again. I hope you get more relief.

kns57 - 2012-08-15 1:05 PM Okay, MRI is scheduled for next Wednesday at 7am.  Then I get the results from the Dr. on Tues the 28th.

Jules,  how is the voting going?  I am so glad that they made the 0 vs O easier to deal with!

I am back in the saddle today.Now I have a BUNCH to catch up on.

Jules, that Granola sounds GREAT. I may have to make a batch this weekend.

Ann, How is the boy liking Football today? Good job on getting the kayak you need. I am glad the shop is working with you. But then, with a customer like you, I would get you what you want, too!

Dee, a neighbor in Florida (when I was a kid) was a really neat old man. He built all sorts of things. He had a tree house that he built as his hang out place, with windows and electricity and everything. He built one of those boats with a clear plastic bottom. He taught me to sail in it but I spent most of my time looking at all the neat creatures in the water!. You all build them and we can race each other in the lake here.

Kendra. How is your son? I HATE it that your back and hip are still hurting. Hopefully the MRI will show something fixable. My hubbie is going through the same thing with his foot. Constant pain and no running. He is really bummed. He is going to have to defer from the MCM and he HATES giving up. He, too has an MRI scheduled. We need everyone fixed up and pain free!

Good morning Ghoulies.

I did the recumbant stationary bike at the gym last night and my leg and hip seemed to do okay with that, so I am going to make a big effort to get to the gym 2-3 times a week and get the bike in.  I have also decided that I will swim every Friday afternoon, and hopefully get in another swim during the week also.  I refuse to sit around any longer (well, at least until the results from the MRI and I learn what the "real" problem is).

After practice he only wants water. He had Gatorade on Monday, and Powerade yesterday, and both times he got sick in the stomach. I think it's because he gulped it down immediately instead of ingesting it slowly. I did tell him this morning that I wanted him eating a banana or 2 today, and he could drink the GA or PA during the day if he didn't want to drink it after practice. He isn't supposed to eat PB because of his braces, but I'm throwing that out the window. He likes PB and molassas, I think I'm going to make him a sandwich before he goes to practice. If he eats it early, and they're watching game films before they start practice, he should be good. If he doesn't want that I'm going to give him some sports beans, or Gu chomps.

It is nothing exciting.  I'll try to get hubby to take a picture tonight, but I have no current before pic.

yay ~ so how long you planning on growing your hair this round?

deehtz - 2012-08-15 6:54 AM

Hey, look!  Jules's votes on top!  Maybe it is an good omen!

deehtz - 2012-08-15 7:07 AM

 

Yes, that is me 3 or 4 years ago.  That was my first climb.  The wall was set up at a town event.  I climbed it before doing a 5k.  I would say about 20 feet high.
