Dang Ann! It sounds like you need full body armor with those kids! Hope the shoulder feels better. If it doesn't go see about it. ASAP! You won't be able to kayak with a messed up shoulder.

Good morning Ghoulies! 

I slept so sound last night that my shoulder is sore today.  I guess I didn't flip over enough.  But that is better than the night before when I only slept a few hours.

Wow!  I didn't realize that softball was such a violent sport!  Hope stretches/yoga etc will set it right!

Good morning Ghoulies!

I'm hurt. I was helping out at softball practice last night. I took a ball right to the knee cap, a ball to the nose, fortunately my sunglasses took the brunt of that, but I do have a small mark on my nose. I took a ball to the cheekbone, bounced off my glove, so it wasn't as bad as it could have been. I took a ball to the elbow, one to the forearm, and one to the shin. I also worked with 2 of the pitchers last night. I threw a zillion softballs last night, but it was the one where I felt the POP in my shoulder, and have had pain there ever since that bothers me. I think I may have a pinched nerve. I have that tingly pins and needles feeling, and it feels like blubber when I try to lift my arm above my head. I'm going to look up some stretches, or yoga poses for it and we will see what happens.

Nope. But I didn't do anything bad either

Just cooked dinner and lolled on the porch for a while. Now I am off to work in the yard again after taking yesterday off. The poison ivy has set in nicely, hopefully I won't add to it today.

i am so allergic to poison ivy that I almost didnt respond because Im afraid I would get it!
I do have a great home remedy for it...that is if you use crest toothpaste...the gel (prefer blue gel)... I f you use it like an ointment and cover your spots...it will dry it up within a day or so...stings when you apply but will keep it from blistering and spreading ~~~ found this out when I was camping in Arkansas and got it from my head to my toes...we had just began a two week vacation and I was TRYING to be a trooper so I was taking benadryl and using camadryl...when I met this true hillbilly...he had everything he owned on his dash of his truck....we cracked up when he pulled up...but now I thank my lucky stars that I met him! he was the one that told me about this....previously I had gotten it so bad that it would take weeks to rid myself of it!!! hope this helps you!!! I SWEAR by it!
I will send you my bill for canned foods later this week...but can you please send me your address first! haha

Some of it was warming up pitchers. Some was from catching for the coach during batting practice, kids hitting foul tips and stuff. Some was from girls throwing balls in to me, and someone would throw a ball to me when I wasn't looking at them and ready to catch it. Fun stuff like that.

So sorry you hurt.  It really sounds more like you played dodge ball, than softball.

So, the MRI is done.  Lying in that tube for 45 minutes with nothing to listen to except the darn machine is torture.  Last time  I had a MRI, they could put in a movie and I was able to watch it.  This time, nothing, nada, not even music.  I did a lot of counting.  I was counting my breaths, in and out.  100 breaths equals about 5 minutes.  Now I get to wait until next Tuesday to get the results and diagnose.  And, no it is not the Dr.s fault that I have to wait that long, it is my schedule that would not let me get into him sooner. 

ceilidh - 2012-08-22 4:09 PM I am bummed, I just deferred the MCM til next year.

Good morning, Robin.

Did you do anything good last night?

ironannekidd - 2012-08-23 5:36 AM

Good morning Ghoulies!

I have decided that Caleb can't play football. It's too nerve racking for me to watch!

Considering he's only been to 5 practices, and only 2 full contact practices he did a pretty good job yesterday. I don't know if I can handle 1 more scrimmage, and 7 games though.

ceilidh - 2012-08-23 7:41 AM

It is hard to watch when it is your kid getting pushed around and stomped on!

ironannekidd - 2012-08-23 8:03 AM We are going to cook hotdogs and mountain pies in the newly moved and remodeled fire pit tonight. You are all invited over for dinner.

ceilidh - 2012-08-23 8:28 AM

That would be great! We will bring ....

VEGETABLES!!! Okay, make that corn on the cob.
