Hello everyone. I wanted to check in and let you all know that I am running really behind on my Gathering. I have so much content to go through, comment and rate. Please do not think that I have forgotten you guys.
I had to go for my last epidural steroid injection yesterday morning, and am still feeling pretty rough. The injection sites are SO sore. It makes movement of any kind painful. I am praying for a miraculous improvement from this last injection. Please send out your prayers as well, if you are the praying type that is. If you are not the praying type, just send out good mojo vibes, and that will suffice! :-) If there is not significant improvement from this last injection, my pain management doctor is passing me along to the surgeon for his evaluation. I am not really keen on the idea of having back surgery, but then again I KNOW that I can not keep living everyday in such significant pain. I want to be pain free and be off all the different pain meds that I have to take. So, keep me in your thoughts...please.
The other time consuming activity that I have been involved with is Christmas. Whew, it sure takes up so much time and energy. I feel like it is taking a lot more energy and time this year, but I guess that is because of my daily pain levels.
I promise to get caught up, I am just not sure how long it will take me. Do not give up on me. I will get to all of you. If the laptop was working, it would make it a lot easier, but of course it is on the fritz! I really hope that I get a new one for Christmas. Any gift givers interested. haha, just teasing. (but if you really want to! haha)

I am having to use my moms computer and I have a brand new laptop but can't use it because thos computer doesn't have ethernet to hook it up. So I am working on getting my own things up and working.
I hope Santa brings you a new computer!
Have a nice day and tell your son Hi.
PLEASE BE GOOD TO ME SANTA!!!!! haha, that is my plea for a laptop for Christmas, maybe someone near and dear to me will get the message.
Donna, they do not do them in the hospital. They have a sterile procedure room at one of their locations that they do them in. It is a pain (LITERALLY) either way.
I am hoping that this one does the trick, because this is the last one. They have reached the quota. I am utilizing the power of positive thinking. It has to work. :-)
I am trying to get through it all, but so far I am not having much relief from the last injection. I went out to Costco and Office Max today, and before I was done at the last stop, I was hurting so bad I could hardly walk. NO FUN!! But, I think I have all of my shopping done. I am sure there will be last minute items that come up, but I am not worrying about those right now.
I hope that everyone is doing ok. I am going to go try to catch up on a few things. I have a feeling it will be quite some time before I get completely caught up on all the content that has been posted lately.
Have a wonderful evening!
