Blue day..

Today hasn't been a terrific day. Got new meds for my knees and sent the rx to Canada. Can't wait to see if it helps. Had a great evening with the girls but things just weren't lively. Charlie was the only one that had her homework. I just didn't get it done. I feel tired tonight and need to get busy on this house tomorrow. Connie is going thru tough times and I think that makes me feel sad too. Had dinner with jean, connie at CPK - it was good. Lee goes back to midnights on Monday UGHHHH That shift is soooo hard on him and I really hate it that he still has to put up with the bull. Ready for bed Sweet dreams..............................................

ACHY KNEES. . .

OMGosh!! have my knees ached in the last few weeks. It's not a sharp, searing pain - it's just a constant ache and difficult to stand and oh!!! stairs are next to impossible to conquer. I have been diligently attending water areobics to help with the flexibility. Went back to dr. thinking I was doing more damage than good NO- keep up with the exercise. I am on new meds so hoping that they will be some!!! improvement.
We are starting a new financial prog. around here. Write down what you spend ARGHHH! daily. I know that I have been guilty of not watching but with Lee considering REAL retirement within the next few months, the time has come. We plan to try to sell PineLakes this spring IF at all possible. That will leave us with just two places to keep up.
Going to get in a HOT bath and my knees with get instant but temporary relief. Thank heavens I have figured that one out.

How time flies. . .

It's been three weeks since I posted last ??? Where has the time gone??? Glad to repost "All is well" within the Smallsreed household YEAH!!!!! It's been a long time since I could say this. Shawna is doing 'fantabulous' (if that's a word), still sober and back to our old little girl. Lee and I are loving it. Scott and Megan are fine. Struggling financially like many others. Chris still employed and living with them. Carol has officially retired from AmExp. another YEAH!!! We are doing water areobics together -what fun at this age. Lee is considering another retirement which I would welcome from TransPac (PanAm Flight Academy). Working on my Easter cards, each card seems to get a little more difficult but that's what I love. Movies every Tues with Linda, Carol or mom. Life is FANTASTIC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
