~cattleman cafe~ & another 24...

[Slo]

I had such a nice day yesterday traveling with my sister to visit / bring a bike to our uncle, have lunch with him; then the three of us visited my uncle and his wife in their nursing home; then the three of us had dinner with my aunt and her husband. I so enjoyed time with family, and my foot and dizziness didn’t bother me so much as I could sit a lot.

That’s quite an operation, Cowboy! Thank you for sharing what it’s like. I suppose breaking a new field would be more bouncy.

It’s frustrating that we finally have time for hobbies in old age and retirement, but then lose our abilities to do them thanks to osteoarthritis and joint problems & such.

I have to wave the white flag of defeat, and have a housekeeper coming today for an assessment.

I believe in chiropractic, but, the ones who run this pain clinic that I go to for the last one and a half years have made empty promises to me that they will cure my neuropathy, but I haven’t gotten any better. I feel strung along, and need to sever ties soon. I have lost just a ton of money to them and their treatments.

I have had to figure out on my own with online help that this neuropathy is likely B6 toxicity, and I am so sad that I was foolish enough to follow a fad diet and “get healthy” when coming out of alcoholism, and have now caused myself to be really sick. So stupid.

It sounds like a beautiful as well as meaningful tree, Dill.

I hope you all have a good day!

Wow Rava! Sure glad that we don't have any Bufo toads around here! I cracked up when you mentioned them lurking around the lamp posts at night. I just had this weird mental image of 2 toads in trench coats planning their next hit. Anyway, it gave me a good laugh.

Ginger, I've never been to a chiropractor, but I know that some people swear by them. It wouldn't hurt to try a session and see what happens.

Waves to everyone! Please join me in another 24 hours of freedom!

In the last 24 hours, these friends have joined in for 24 hours of wellness:

Today is going to be a darn good day not to drink!

[abcowboy]

I'm ready for some breakfast...

[abcowboy]

Those sound like some nasty toads Rava, don't think I'd want to be anywhere near them unless it was to get rid of them. I also got a chuckle about the lamp post, I wonder if it's the same for fire hydrants lol.

I've never been to a chiropractor either Ginger, but lots of people go to them so I'd probably give it a try if I thought I needed to.

Sounds like you have a great day visiting with your sister and relatives Slo, do you have to travel far to visit family? I think you'll be better off with a house cleaning service, might be easier on your body.

Waves to dill and Jude, and let's all keep it between the lines today...

[Rava]

Good morning Cafe. Glad you had a good day Slo. I hope the cleaning service gives you a good estimate. Having someone else do the hard work is amazing! Yes those toads, also called Cane toads lurk in their trench coats smoking cigarettes! LOL. They tell you to put them in your freezer and it kills them. I am NOT putting any animal that is alive in my freezer. Other people gig them and throw them in bleach. YUCK. Mr. R shot one with his pellet gun. I am kind of glad that I don’t have a dog anymore so I have no reason to be out at night walking around. Now that I have gotten that nasty business out of the way I want to say thank you to Cowboy for that delicious breakfast. I am getting ready to cook some scrapple now to add to my plate. Ginger, I have never been to a chiropractor so I can not give any thoughts on it. Hi to Jude and Dill and Mul. 24 more please and thank you. PS fingers crossed that we catch some crabs today!

[Ginger999]

Rava, good luck crabbing today! And stay away from the frog mafia.

Slo, I think your busy days sound healing for you. It's hard to be alone and getting out and seeing people seems like it helps you to ignore your health issues. Well, as much as possible!

ABC, can I have another helping of those pancakes? They're my favorite

Man o man! We had a hell of a wind storm come through last night. I'm glad most of my yard art are boulders. I've decidedly to commit to some chiropractic adjustments. Like my friend said, it's worth a try.

Waves to all my pals. I'll take another day of freedom

[dill]

Cowboy, I can't believe you had time to get that fabulous breakfast on before you got back behind the wheel of the tractor! You're amazing. I haven't heard any bullfrogs this year yet, but I think it is not warm enough around here yet.

Rava, you put a smile on my face with your visual image of Bufoes in trench coats, with cigarettes dangling from their toad lips. When did the Bufoes start being a problem. This is the first I've heard of them. I guess if you wanted a job you could start a Bufo extermination service.

I've never been to a chiropractor Ginger and it's not likely I would try one. I'm more inclined to go for a Physical Therapy referral. I've had PT treatments for lumbar issues and cervical spine issues in the past and have gotten really good results both times. I've always been skeptical of Chiropractics, but I have had many friends that have sworn by them and feel the treatments are beneficial.

Slo, glad you have had so much quality family time lately!

24 more for all of us here, please and thank you.
