Christmas Countdown - 2012

[brent]

I just got off the phone with my boss, I am going to work a half day tomorrow to see how my foot responds, should be back to full day on Friday if it is okay.

I could certainly go for a half day right now! Sounds like a grand idea. Good luck!

Made, tell your sister I will be right over as her "DDW" (for those who don't know, Designated Dish Washer). I hope she gets to feeling better! Wait, my back hurts too. I think you need to be our "DDW"! =)

Okay I sent my mom to my sisters house and I'm on my way down to your house. Do you need me to pick anything up for you on the way?

Good afternoon, everyone!

It's 'Pines Day! I was feeling real well last night until about 8:30. My throat began to ache. Then, I woke up with a head ache and running nose. So far, I've already drank more than three litres (16 oz each) of water. I am a firm believer in drinking as much as possible and flushing it out of my system. My throat feels better. Hopefully the rest of my body can respond, too.

The weather is a warm 4C! That's nearly 40F! Spring is less than a month away and this is a good sign! I'm excited to take my bike out of my friend's basement and ride it to work everyday. It will certainly save me about $90 per month as I wouldn't have to purchase a bus pass!

Not much happening today. Kim isn't feeling well either. She was supposed to have pilates tonight, but her body may not let her go. Tonight is an off-night for me. The gym was fun yesterday. The weights keep getting heavier and my back feels no pain. No complaints!

Well, I hope everyone enjoys the 'Pines! It's a beautiful Wednesday. It is all downhill from here until the weekend. Nothing wrong with that! And, of course, our next milestone is coming up next week! So much excitement, and it is only nearing the end of February!

That's probably a good plan. Do they give you a brace to wear? I know my mom's doctor had her wear her brace for the first couple of weeks back to work just to provide some extra support until she got back in the groove.

Wishing everyone a good Wednesday. My cold is improving (except for some fogginess and fatigue), and I'll be back on the job tomorrow. I had some news on the estate matter this morning that may be good news ... time will tell.

My doctor appointment with the specialist went well yesterday. He told me that the lump is a lymph node. At my family doctor the day before, the nurse said it was an abscess and the doctor said a cyst, so they were way wrong. It is a shame that I paid money to go get checked and they have no clue what they are talking about. Anyways, the specialist said that I do not need to worry about anything and it will probably go away on its own.

Happy to hear that it's just a lymph node!! They say they can go away, or stick around for a bit. I've had a swollen one in my neck for @ a year now, and an ENT told me not to worry about it since it hasn't changed in size. Just keep an eye on it, and you should be good =)

jennifer, I agree with snowflake---do keep an eye on it, and if you notice it's getting bigger, have it looked at again (speaking from personal experience). If it stays the same or gets smaller, you're good.

The fluids are a smart idea ... I've been fighting a cold since Saturday night with plenty of fluids and humidity (steamy showers, a bowl of water on the radiator, and a humidifier overnight) plus rest, and I think it's about broken today. If your throat or chest is involved, try tea with honey and lemon. Even better, an herbal tea with ginger and lemon, sweetened with honey. Very soothing, and I think it keeps the inflammation down.

I'm off to the Pines with Carl's horseradish. I've been good about tasting Carl's new blends but I'm hoping this isn't for the coffee.

CAH,
Hubby and I went to Costco today and they had the Vitamix 5200 on sale. We bought one. I loved the samples of smoothies they had. I think this will help when I go through chemo.

LaurieBear,
What is your new website?

Hello all! As of yesterday I finally started getting some energy back from the cold I have suffered for awhile BUT then yesterday I moved a real small table and it got hung on something and I pulled a muscle in my back! Oh yay! I was really having a tough time sleeping last night. I have had issues with my back for over 20 years. No biggie, I will be just fine! I am still trying to plan on going to the gym. Let's see how that goes. cheesy

Made, tell your sister I will be right over as her "DDW" (for those who don't know, Designated Dish Washer). I hope she gets to feeling better! Wait, my back hurts too. I think you need to be our "DDW"! =)

Since I have been sick I haven't been on here as much. February has been a busy month for me too. I hope to make it for The Pines tonight!

Have a great day everyone!

You will love it! I make a lot of juices and smoothies with mine.

Did we just get Rick Roll'd??? Love it! :lol:

Whew!!!! The horseradish was for Carl's new roast beef sandwich. The new blend for this week is an orange, peach, and banana coffee. It's actually really good if you add a splash of cream to it.
