Re: Bird's Nest for May 2022

leeny,glad you got to talk with your surgeon,I understand you not wanting surgery. I postponed mine a few years ago,but finally hade to give in,actually it wasn't that bad,and I recovered without any PT. 
I have degenerative disc disease in my entire lower back. My whole lower back is held together with rods,pins and screws,with a little bone graft that he took from my hip. I'm glad I had it done and was lucky enough to go to Johns Hopkins which is not to far away. It's a huge decision for sure and I can understand why you don't/can't have it done now.

I usually don't sleep very well,no matter what I take or do. Was really sleeping well about 5 this morning when the two owls conversing woke me up. They seem to stay in the area and I've been lucky enough to see them a few times in the daytime. One sits next door on our neighbors AC unit during the day. He's very handsome!

Went online today,read about owls. It's mating season and it's the female we heard calling to her mate. Wish she'd get in the mood at a better time 😂

I am glad you understand. Yup, 6 screws, 3 on each side where my "pesticules" ( spelling) are cracked or broken. I don't have a lot of stability. With needing a bone density test and labs to make sure I don't have osteoporosis that will also be a deciding factor. Right now I am playing it close to the vest. I know I am not a young chicken, but I am not some old stewing hen yet..lol. or at least I don't think I am. I'll just have to play it careful and don't over do it like @possummink  says. My floors need scrubbing and I hate to ask my DD, but I really have no choice right now. She works full time and she has her own home to take care of, but mopping and vacuuming are not  something I can do right now. 

Where is Hazel when you need her?? lol


 

@Leeny   LOL, please keep your wonderful sense of humor, it gets us through the worst times.

No truer words spoken/written @mousiegirl   If I didn't have a sense of humor I would have been in a rubber room years ago.

@mousiegirl 

Yup, we need to keep our sense of humor around here and everywhere we go. My kids think I am crazy sometimes, but that's normal. If we can't laugh at our selves than ??? Life is tough and I try to make the best of it. Sometimes it isn't easy, but what the heck is the alternative? being an old grump? lol. Life is too darn short for that.Heart
