Last night was rather disappointing. First I was unable to use my seat as it was a NO PAIN MEDs day! Sat on my walker on the concourse above my seat. Actually it's a great place to sit, high up, lots of nice coollng breezes, and got to see so many more people BUT they were also a huge distraction and I know I missed a lot of the game!
Second my dear friend Smirna Flores was nowhere to be found and I noticed her amazing fiance Rossmel Perez was not in the dugout!WHAT??? When Josh Gaytold me Ross had been moved UP to AAA, to the Louisville Bats, I had terrible mixed feelings... I will miss those 2 very much but I am SO PROUD of Ross!! He's been playing amazing ball lately and truly deserves to move up! Congrats dear man and know I love you and still pray for you both.. hugs
Third the Bay Bears were relentless and we could not get a break! 4 of their runs were from 3 Homers! The Wahoos were loaded for Bear but just could never get a man around. Except for a home run by Travis Mattair (I think) I don't think anyone got beyond 2nd if there... was very sad. My man Drew Hayes pitched very well again although I had left and only heard on the radio.
SO I have great expectations for today! I believe the injection I get at 3 today WILL be the medication and will relieve me of this pain! I believe I will feel well enough to sit in my seat again. but mostly I BELIEVE the Pensacola Blue Wahoos are going to WIN! GO WAHOOS!!!
WHEW! went out to fill the bird feeder and decided to water while out there. I rescued the last, I think, tomato which was covered with those spidery bugs. I washed them off before I picked it! ick! I water anyway but I think they have destroyed my plants. only a couple flowers left so might get more but no 7dust I will plant more seed to grow more on the porch this fall and winter! All the other plants and flowers are doing well, as long as I water them, but OH MY do they need repotting!! Praying this hip pain will go away today! I truly want to take care of my garden better. A couple more peppers and maybe 2 cukes left... lettuce has gone to flowering! lol I have been so neglectful... you can imagine what my house looks like! YUCK!
Beautiful bright cardinal is back and here come the little guys too. A mourning dove beneath the feeder to catch the droppings! lol
Can you believe it??? Puppies are harrassing me to love on them! lol so off to the bed we go for a bit, ease up my hip before heading for the pool...
Hip stuff update! After 2 days without ANY pain meds I got to the appt okay. First some questions about my pain levels etc. then more XRays on the right hip. When I finally got into the paper, yes paper, shorts I was ready and already exhausted. The procedure wasn't fun but with God's help I got through it! The doc was awesome and kept me distracted by talking BASEBALL!!! LOL Knowing I was onmy way to the game after, I had worn FULL baseball gear... so all during the xrays and procedure I was WAHOOING!
Doc said I might be sore from the needle in my hip! YUP he was right! I had to use the walker again and my right leg kept feeling like it didn't want to hold me up! lol
IF I got the meds I might not know it for a couple weeks.. not like the cordisone shot I got in May which made a huge difference immediately! And boy howdy was I SORE. But I was able to get back on the xstrength Tylonal and that is helping.
I'm praying so hard that I got the right stuff, not feeling it yet, as it would help me avoid surgery until next year! I have no one to help me right now and cannot have surgery!! I can go to a rehab, no problem. But if I did that my puppies would have no one to care for them... cannot afford to board them for maybe 6 weeks! Let alone thinking of them in a cage....... makes me heart sick! So no matter what I cannot have surgery for a while.. if ever.
