Butt Update

 Yup, it is still hanging in there. I think it should be much better than it is but I am learning to live with it. My best place to be is in bed but what kind of life is that? I am playing pool and Butch told me today that I am playing well. Now isn't that a shocker! It does seem to be a bit better each day. My butt,that is.

Tomorrow the house washer guy shows and then we can finish settling in with getting chairs and tables out of the utility room and setting up the deck. I put my NuWave oven on the deck and do my cooking out there. It gives me more space in the kitchen.

Happy hour at 4:00 is in full swing. One of our regulars received word that her sister lost her house and all of her belongings in a house fire. So the new plan is for her to come here and buy a place. She was nearing retirement anyway so this pushed it up a notch. This way she will be close to her sister for help with her recovery. Even if she ultimately decides to go somewhere else, it will make a great transitional plan.

Time slips away

 We are mostly settled in. Our 'Southern Plantation' will get washed on Sunday and then we can put the finishing touches on the moving in process. Last season there was a strong restriction on water and now when we have someone come in to wash our mobiles they must bring their own water. The restrictions, although lifted a bit, have caused a back-up in getting our places cleaned and that is why it is happening on a Sunday. We will be glad to get it done!

Butt update: Still hurts a bit but only now and then. The odd thing, at least to me, is that I can poke around on the outside and it doesn't hurt at all. The hurt is internal and can often be the result of internal cramping. Ice packs do help. Still needs pain pills but only a couple of times a day. I am not being stopped from doing what I want to do and that to me is a win/win.

I have played pool with my partner Linda G. a couple of days and it has went well. League will start the first week of December.

I get hungry for vegetables and Butch is not a fan so recently I bought a package of frozen stir-fry veggies and I look upon it as a solution. I can skillet fry enough for me, throw a helping of corn or peas at Butch and the problem is solved. They were delicious!

Trivia starts November 12th and thanks to my up-north players I have plenty of sessions all lined up. After putting them together for eight years I am ready to recycle and rest on my laurels. I will stick a current question in now and then.

Till next time...
