I have had a major flare up of RA symptoms. I thought it was the weather & I am sure that did not help. But the worst was I had 2 large, heavy boxes of home stuff like dog/cat food, household cleaning products, soda & drinks etc. I managed to shove each box in the house separately & put things away. And a plastic bag with drinks I carried in the house. I had to choose make one trip or several. And I am paying the price. It is what happens when you live alone with no friends, few family members, no neighbours. My brother thinks I can just call my nephew for whatever I need. I refuse to do that. He has kids & does not want to miss their activities. He has a large farm with crops & animals. He is busy with lots of responsibilities. I will not be a burden to him. There are a few answers but that would include people to agree with me & help. That will not happen. My one grandson works 12 hours a day. The other one has 3 babies. When do they have time? Such is life. I do what I have to do by myself. There is lots I need to do but I run out of steam. Or get out of bed already out of steam. Anyone care? Hardly. Or they care but would never offer a helping hand. I get what I deserve.
Not only in pain, but my stress level has soared this week. Where is my support group? I guess it is what it is. Only my problem. No one elses.
Cinder came in early this morning & I never heard or saw her again. I was scared she died somewhere!!! She finally went out when I got home from supper. She was in when we finally got our 3 drops of rain.
We had rain forecast all night. I kept getting texts saying rain would start at this time or that time. All were lies. Started raining this morning. Other places in the state had around 2 inches. We had a whopping .03 inches. How awesome. Will just let the rain gauge dry out.
I finally made it to the pharmacy. I had 2 things to pick up. I had emails for both that they were ready. BUT. The first one was not found. They actually got it ready as I waited. They broke a record for that. I was amazed I did not have return tomorrow.
JR & I ate supper at the Crown & Rye. I had wanted Swedish pancakes but changed my mind. I got loaded potato soup, fried shrimp, & french fries. The best fries. I ate about half. Lunch will be good tomorrow!
I bought a microwave cooking dish called Anyday. They have an entire set & easy recipes to use it for. Mashed potatoes using no water & cook for 12 minutes. Bacon 4 minutes & scrambled eggs in 2 minutes. Awesome. Will try it out tomorrow with bacon & eggs & toast.
Photos today are all of buffalo from Maxwell Lake. Taken a few years ago. Need to go back out there. Maybe Nico & I could go sit by the lake to chill out. Would be nice.
