What have you been doing today?

Judy, if you're over our way and with nothing better to do and you want to while away some time it would be great if you fancied dropping in - I'd love to catch up.

Yesterday was my weekly visit to the physio - I feel as though I am starting to get 'somewhere' with my exercises at last.

On Monday and Tuesday next week we are getting our under floor heating system in our home in the country re-commissioned - I am so looking forward to having a warm house to be in over winter.  It also means I will be up there for two days more than usual so lots of cooking and baking happening!!

A visit to the doctor for DH to get the results of his rash.  The results were good and the rash is almost gone now.

Judy that is a little compensation for you. As you say no use dwelling on it as things can’t be changed.
Marina and KAtie keep well. Mab I’m glad your DH is recovering.
I do miss Chookie. 🥹🥹🥹

DH was out almost all day today. Our freezer decided to die. I wasn’t impressed. Thank goodness we have 2 Engels and a good size freezer in the motorhome. We’ve transferred the food and will look for a new one first chance we get.

We had a most delightful wee boy in the shop today - only 3 years old "going on 7" with the most amazing language skills.  He was a real sweetie who cannot wait until his birthday to get his first instrument.

Went to a DGF’s mums funeral. Amazing age nearly 94 . Always the young adult grandchildren did an amazing job . Big drive, fruit and vegetables shop .

This is going to sound like an advert, but it really works.  If you are in pain take a look at this https://www.facebook.com/share/v/196o7RTEMB/ or go to their web site zea.com.au  I had been intending to let you all know about this for a few days but didn't get around to it so it was fortunate that I saw this on Facebook this morning and that nudged me into action.

One of my neighbours has been singing the praise of this cream / ointment for quite some time so, out of desperation, I decided to give it a try last week and, much to my surprise (and relief), it really did work.  I had been having to use a walking stick for the past month and also had to stop my physio exercises due to pain, but (and I am not exaggerating) I was able to leave my walking stick in the cupboard immediately.  It didn't get rid of all my pain (only the knee replacement will do that as my knee is bone on bone) but the improvement was huge.

Fortunately a small independent chemist down the road from us stocks this product, but I don't think it is widely distributed so if you wanted to try it you would probably have to buy it off the net.

If you do try it, I hope you have a much pain relief as I got.

Marina sounds like it’s a gem . What kind of pain are we talking muscular. My glutes are hurting a lot at the moment so I’m going to put on a cream that I have in the cupboard. As soon as I read this it reminded me about it .
Missing Chookie , is she still unable to get in to the forum ? Imagine all the people locked out if she cannot get in .

Thanks Marina. Most of my aches and pains aren’t too bad except for my big toes.  The joints where they meet the foot often feel as though someone is driving red hot nails through them.

GD no5 turns 18 next month and already has her car, so today we went looking for a gift for her.  Each of the other GD were given an engraved heart shaped charm to put on the key ring for their car.  We weren't able to buy the same type so bought her a Pandora heart shaped charm  with 18 in the centre of it.  I'm sure she will like it.

We then did the grocery shopping after that.

I’m sure she will love it Mab.

Been a bit slow the last few weeks , seems my hips or Glutes are always sore . Trying to move around ( go for short walks ) to take the pain away . Think I must go to yoga tomorrow to at lest do a bit of stretching . This is making me feel quite anxious, but I’m just hopeful that I will improve- less sitting and more sunshine is in order . A bit of washing today .

K Atie, pop onto their web site zea.com.au or go to the Facebook link in my post and you may find some answers and, possibly, relief from your pain - you have got nothing to lose except for a couple of minutes on the internet.
