Doggieboy is fine

He's eating and drinking like normal..  today I threw his toys and he went and chased after them. He loves that.  He also loves his medicine and starts licking his lips when he sees us with the dropper.  He just laps it right up.. easy.

I worked on arrangements today, made faux pea soup and cooked chicken patties and cabbage. Thats the sum total of my day. J

Love my dog...

But we'd do better if we had pet insurance...  Vet bill was outrageous.  But what do ya do?  Doggieboy was sick.. he had to have xrays and be rehydrated.. then some antibiotic.  He has inflamation in the small bowel.  What a touchy little thing he is.  But he's a bit better tonight.  He finally ate, but doesn't want to drink any water.  Worrisome.

I didn't do anything today.. too tired.  I will do double tomorrow.. lol NOT.

Anti-inflamatories.. necessary evil.

I moved around a little better today.  Had a little less pain.  Doesn't mean I had no pain, but instead of being a ten I'd say mostly it was a 9 and sometimes down to an 8.   That's because I took the anti-inflamatory med yesterday and again today.  Scales went up half a pound too.  HOPE they don't continue to do that as they sometimes do.  I was very careful today with the carbs. Probably haven't had over thirty net carbs the whole day.  Maybe I can keep myself from gaining like I usually do when I take this type of med. 

I made the most delicious chicken thighs tonight for dinner.  I cooked them till they were done, and then poured a glaze over them made with Walden farms pancake syrup, soy sauce, ginger, pepper, red pepper flakes, garlic and honey mustard.  Amazingly delicious..

Need to get done so I can watch my nightly two hours of television...   My dog is sick and that makes me very worried and sad. He's my doggieboy.. J

On Accomplishing things....

Each morning when I get out of bed I say to myself,

"Today is going to be different. I will do things even though I am in pain.  I will ignore it and just go on.  I will accomplish something."  

And always it's the same,  I start to do something and then the pain increases to the point where the only thing I can do is take a pill and lay down.  I have to wait until the pain lessens and sometimes that takes two hours.  So then I get up and work for maybe an hour before I have to stop again.  Sometimes it's frustrating but I'm trying to just accept it..   It's hard to accept but what does one do when it isn't going to change?  The only thing I can do is what I can do.   Therefore I really don't accomplish much in one day..
Yum and it was good.. even though it was waaaaaaay too high carb.  Don't do that very often.

Today I...
 
Made the beds. 
Worked on the recipe book.
 Worked on the reunion book..
 Made pizza. 

That is the sum total of every thing I accomplished. J.

Over before I got done..

Why is it I seem to run out of time every day.. well, don't exactly run out of time.  I keep having to stop to deal with the pain and that uses up quite a bit of time. As a result I never seem to be able to finish what I want to do. 

But it is what it is and on that note, going to bed and read..................J
