TUESDAY TIDBITS
It is warm and sunny here in Southeastern Georgia today!! It is suppose to get to 80 degrees!! I know that a lot of you out there are wrapped up in blankets and stuck at home now with an ice storm!! Believe me i have been in many many ice storms and never want to do that again!! I just thought I would make you a little warmer by telling you about our sunshine today!!
Above I have inserted a picture of my old nativity scene. This was made for me by my Sunday School teacher a LONG time ago. I was very young at the time but remember getting it then. It was all white but one time I tried to paint it. WHY? Hmmmm...who knows!! This was given to me in 1951!! I have had it up at every Christmas that I have been married!! I have always been so afraid that it would break but so far I have been able to keep it all in tact!! I thought you might like to see it!!
Some of you have been asking about my orthopedist report from yesterday!! Well, he said that the MRI did not show anything wrong!! I know that is great but it still makes you wonder where all that pain came from. He said that MRI's are normally about 90% accurate. He said that if that bad bad pain returns to come back and they will go in there and see what is causing my problem. The cortisone injection has really helped. If it holds then I will be okay. Now we just go day by day. The only thing that he could come up with was that i might have a torn cartilage. He said that one other patient of his had a clear MRI but they finally had to go into her knee and found that it was torn. You know when something says that you have a 10% chance of not having it then I usually end up ....HAVING IT!! smile. For now I am doing pretty well. I did go exercise this morning and did a lot better than I had anticipated!! That is good news for me.
Everyone done with Christmas shopping? We are as done as we can be. We really really cut back this year!! We just had too. We know that each year that comes that we are going to have to really be careful. The older you get the less money there is so that makes us have to be very careful and smart about giving at Christmas. We are just forced into being careful!! I hope you are all done!!
I am off to work again this afternoon!! I really do like my job!! Finally I can do something that is fun!! Plus they call it a job!! smile!!
We are losing a great pastor at our church. It almost made hubby and I cry the other night when we found out. We are losing Jeff Vines!! He is the best that we have ever had. He feels like he is being called to a church in California as their senior pastor. They do not know how fortunate they are!! He is a great teacher of the WORD!! Believe me!! I have some blogging babe friends who were able to go and hear him while they were visiting me!! We are going to miss him dearly!!
I know everyone is busy this time of the year!! Blogging gets put to the side!! Take care and hopefully we will all be back to our regular BAD HABIT...BLOGGING again soon....
FLIP FLOP!!
