My new umbrella arrived, yeah!

My new umbrella arrived, yeah! Silly but it’s one of those things I’ve been meaning to get for ages. I love walking but the older I get the harder it is for me to control my core temperature and the easier I burn.  Don’t ask me how but I’ve been known to blister, badly I […]

Barcelona here we come, 8 days…….

Posted on May 25, 2013 by sonjabarrie

Barcelona here we come, 8 days……. Well so much for my posting every day. That went out the window when the pain upped.  Hard to do anything except just what's necessary to get through the day.  Work comes first, if we don't keep working on our business we don't make any money and I have […]

13 days and counting………

Wow less than 2 weeks till we fly out. Getting a bit nervous now. Am I doing the right thing? Do I really need this surgery? Can we really afford it? Will it just help or will it actually solve the problem? Will I even survive? The pain in my back had been pretty bad […]

20 days and counting till we leave for Barcelona, wow less than 3 weeks now! Been a long day today, didn’t take anything to help me sleep last night and was awake again at 5 am, it sucks!  I am NOT a morning person (ask Tim) and when your back hurts too it’s a double […]

Fentanyl Patch not really working! A couple of weeks ago I felt another piece of disk break off and it hurt like hell, I finally gave up trying to tough out the pain and not take too many Lortab so the doc just gave me some new meds, a Fentanyl patch. I put on the […]
