Spring Cleaning

General No Comments

I am thinking about some spring cleaning and some repairs that really need to be done to the house this spring/summer. I need my ceilings painted, I have found a gal that is willing to take care of that, and my BFF will help me to get my place moved around so that I can vacuum areas that need done, I need my carpets cleaned, so of course I turned to some online searches and found carpet cleaning apex nc, so going to see if I can find anything local regarding them. I have my own carpet machine, but I think its time for a professional company to come in and this way I will know they are done really good.

Is it Spriing YET

General No Comments

Ok, I am ready for SPRING, we have not had a bad winter at all, so not complaining over that, but this winter has been really hard on me because of the back and forth temps. One day it is in the 60’s and then the next its in the low 20’s and its really kicking my Fibromyelgia in the ass big time since I am not able to adjust to the temperatures one way or the other. I am not crazy about really hot weather either, but at least it won’t be such a drastic change and hopefully I will be more comfortable than what I have been all winter so far.

Sales over the Internet

БогородицаRecently a friend of mine ended up with having a bunch of guitars and other equipment that she needed to get rid of, she advertised them locally but could not get a good price on them since most of them had been fairly new and in excellent shape. I answered her phone one day regarding some of the equipment and was ask about a snark tuner, which up to that point I had never heard of, but guess it had something to do with the guitars. The phone call came in from Colorado, which really surprised us that it make it that far, at the end of that day most of the guitars where packed up and sent to the guy on the phone. It amazes me how the information with the help of the internet made it as far as it did.

Update on Bursitis

General No Comments

Well, my Bursitis, or what I was told was Bursitis ended up with me going to see my PCP to find out that I have a terrible case of Tendonitis, the pain got so bad that my pain meds had not been giving me much relief at all. I ended up on a short term course of steroids in order to be able to even move my arm, It was suggested that I use an arm sling to restrict the movement, I have not done that yet, but may have to in the future. I have been off the steroids now for about a week and not doing to bad, only time will tell if and when the pain will return or get as bad as what it had been.

High Winds

General No Comments

We have had some pretty high winds here over the past few days, I guess we are lucky being that we set back in the woods and under so darn many large oak trees, lucky that they have not caused much damage and only cleanup from branches falling out. Our neighbor was not quite a fortunate since he had a tree limb fall on his RV, so now he is looking for someone that can do a good job with rv repair. Bet ya he will think twice about where he parks it from now on since the entire roof is caved in.

A Mild Winter

No one can really complain much about this winter here in PA at all, we have not had much snow to deal with at all, and even the temps have been easy to live with. Yesterday it felt like spring, today is about the same, can even go outside with just a light weight coat on. Its been raining more this winter than anything, so that means the yard is pretty saturated and seems like its not going to dry up for awhile yet, you know its wet, I mean really wet when it tries to suck your shoes right off your feet…lol

Camera’s old and new

General 1 Comment

I was ridding out a closet just a few days ago and I came across a really old Poloroid camera, that camera has to be every bit of 40 years old, I bet it would even still work, but not sure there is even film made for them anymore. Everything has gone to digital, I have a good 35mm camera, but nothing beats my canon digital cameras for easy and good quality pictures.

Anxiety problems and sleep.

General No Comments

I am having such a hard time with anxiety, it seems to be related to my pain and goes hand in hand with it. I have Xanax but don’t take it on a daily basis under the recommendation of my Doctor. I have tried a good B Complex, I have better success with the Stress Tabs than what I do the other straight B Complex formulas found out there. I am searching now for Homeopathic remedies to take the edge off. The edge vary rarely goes away, I have to keep myself away from Stress and a few known triggers or I go into a full blown panic attack, and unless you have experienced them yourself, you have no idea what they feel like. Right now I am so tired, I really need sleep, but when I lay down is when my pain starts because I have either Bursitis or Tendonitis in both my shoulders. I have an appointment with my Doctor tomorrow and going to talk to her about what I can do in order to at least try and get a good nights sleep.

City Living

General No Comments

Way back in the 70’s I lived in Los Angeles for around 5 years. Now I live in the country and as much as I really love it, there are times that I do miss the convenience of city living. In LA I lived within blocks of anything that anyone could possible every want, and that included a los angeles rehab center. I always lived on a top floor, I never felt comfortable living on a ground floor and every noise in the night would wake me up, so I moved to a top floor apartment within a few months of moving to LA. There are times now that I really wish I did not need a car to even go get a gallon of milk and the older I get the more I am missing city living.

Winter Weather

General No Comments

This has really been a mild winter for us here in PA. I really should not complain, but I really just wish it would get cold and stay cold, one day its in the 50’s and then the next its back down to the normal winter temps for this area. I have Asthma and this winter has been really hard for me to get adjusted, the fact is that my body is not able to adjust one way or the other, the cold just knocks me for a loop and as careful as I try to be I end up with a full blown attack before my breathing will start to ease up again. I do have a nebulizer on hand and have had to use it more this winter than I have had to for years.
