Yikes what a day!

I have a lot to do between now and Friday Morning at 9:00 am. This morning, while doing the dishes I bent wrong and really nailed my back. A major muscle spasm. Poor Paul. Thank goodness he was home. 

SO I spent the day in bed in an awkward position high on muscle spasm relievers. :)

Got Lots of rest today and I can actually move without howling like a wounded animal. LOL

Hope you all had a good day!

Stressing OUT

Ready to go? NOT. 

Since yesterday, I've thrown out my back AND gotten a letter from my disability insurance company that they may be cutting me off. GREAT.  Wonder if the government will bale ME out?  No probably not. They're still rejecting my social security application. Why is drug addiction covered and NOT heart disease or M.S.? Just wondering...

Still haven't heard back on the spot on my lung.. I need to call that doctor today as well as the doctor who needs to respond to my disability company. That would be the doctor I haven't seen in more than 6 months.. GREAT.

Usually on trips, I can throw "last minute things" into the car.. The car that STAYS on the road; down here on earth. The car that leaves WHEN I'm ready..  I am going to start packing today; so EVERYTHING is in the suitcase, and not forgotten.

Friday morning is looming large!

Ok, Thanks for taking the time to read my blog today.

Computer Hell

This picture has nothing to do with my post; But Sophie is so cute!

Almost two years ago, I purchased a new computer. An I Mac. I like it. Many of my favorite programs though, were only available in windows. SO, I purchased a program that would enable me to have windows loaded on to my mac. Katie has a computer, a PC, with Vista basic. It's crap. I spent the better part of this weekend, first purchasing, then trying to install a slide show program (my favorite) onto first Katie's computer, only to have it fail every time I tried to open MyDVD;  then rebuilding FROM SCRATCH, my Windows Virtual Machine in my mac so it'd be big enough to download the DVD program.  I had computers crashing in both rooms. At last, I was told I ran out of tries to download the program.. hmm... I see....  I'll get angry about that another day.

THEN I found a copy of the program I had already re-purchased and installed that into my "new" Windows screen. Spent another 4 hours transferring or trying to transfer songs, photos etc for the slide show I was trying to create with my DVD to the windows program.. I completed the revised slide show, inserted the DVD into the computer and hit.. BURN.. My windows will receive from my DVD drive... It will not send.. I cannot burn the  DVD..  USELESS.. After trying for a couple more hours to install this program I found into Katie's computer, I gave up...   The slide show will be on the mac program.

You know, It's gotta be windows.

September

It's only the 19th but it seems as though September is almost over. Other than flying, I'm looking forward to my trip to WI. I'll see Julee and be there long enough to drive her nuts. :) I'll meet all the people, I've seen in photos for weeks, while helping Julee with a slide show project. I'll be wearing sweaters!!!! The end of September and early October mean something in WI, or so I hear. I seem to have a lot to do suddenly before I get on that plane next week, so I'm feeling a bit scattered tonight.

Still no word on my Chest CT. My arm, was broken after all. After another CT on it, I saw my orthopedist today. Don't need to do anything; which is quite a relief. It'll heal on it's own and maybe I'll be able to predict the weather soon.

Hope you all have a wonderful weekend!

A Full Day

Paul is off this morning, taking his Sister Sandi and her husband Jim, to the Airport. They're off to Germany this morning. I'm praying for a safe journey and a wonderful trip!

We're dog sitting their Haley.  Shane of course will NOT behave and is driving poor Haley crazy.

I'm going in for a CT (checking out the spot on my lung again) --- wish me luck! and an MRI to check on my arm/elbow.  Since I got the "good stuff" tranquilizers for the MRI, Paul has to drive me to and from.. THEN, while I drift off to a nice comfy nap, Paul will be headed out to work the swing shift..

No rest for the weary today!  That would be Paul!
