My Everest…

As predicted physio can see all …lol he’s like a fortune teller but without a glass ball.   How was the weekend??  Good !!  How are you doing?  Umm well I canceled my vacation, and I had a busy weekend.  I told my kids about their Grandma having some health issues and am concerned enough about it that I felt the need to be here while she is going through all this stuff.  Ahh so you are stressed? A bit !   Who wouldn’t be?  I’m sure that if this was happening in his family he would be too.   So he goes on to do his thing ….we discuss his favourite topic about my body…posture, as he’s pushing gently back on my shoulders.  Then he checks my range of motion that is always better after this is done, and I shake my head as he is always smiling when it’s better.  You can’t help but just laugh at him! He clearly loves his job!  He then asks again about acupuncture.  Should we do it or not? I am like it’s 6 and 1 ½ dozen of the other a crap shoot but when I had it done it calmed things down..hmmm.   That being said, bring out the needles and we will see what happens later.   I can tell you that it did help but like I know.  When I come back home my arms alway feel weird and rubbery.  So I rest them until that goes away and sometimes it takes a good bit before I can function properly but.  Would you rather be having that odd feeling and then feel much better the next day or be in pain and have the flare bear come out to play with intensity!  You know my choice…Orangutan arms it is ! 

I was going to plan a baby shower for my grandson as some people asked me when I was doing one.  I started to ask the preliminary people for potential dates for it and then I decided to put a pause on this as at this moment in time I feel that it would be too much on my plate.  Also it would be smack dab in the middle of summer and not sure who would be able to attend.  I made a preliminary list of people to invite just close friends and family and my husband is like looking at me as to why I would do this when my daughter will not be able to attend. I’m like man you do it virtually just like in covid times!! But then I started to think that perhaps a delay would be best seeing that my mom is going to potentially have a lot of  upcoming dr’s appointments and seeing that a wedding is right around the corner.   I decided to delay it after speaking to my daughter and son.  They would rather a meet the baby gathering when they come home then a virtual shower …ok less for me on my plate at this moment in time. It might even be better that way!  I am soo looking forward to falling in love with those tiny corn nib let toes.  I may not be able to hold the wee man but I will find a way to make it work.  Like someone said to me you are always figuring things out…it’s so true I am always trying to figure things out with my flare bears twists and turns!
