22 December 2011

I'm sitting here nursing the beginnings of a cold. What nice timing . . .
On Monday I had an MRI done on my injured shoulder. I'll go tomorrow morning and find out the results. At the moment, my neck is hurting me way more than my shoulder. It's hell getting old!
I have NOT done my Christmas shopping. Thank goodness there's not that much to do. Our families are not into the out-of-control consumerism that seems to be the key inGREEDient of the holiday season. I look forward to December 21st each year more than I look forward to the 25th because I know that after that, the days are now getting longer . . . Yea!!!
Bill and I went to a Lyle Lovett concert at Bass Hall on Tuesday night. That was our gift to each other (and our annual date!). We had a great time, but it made for a late night for us homebodies.
No specific plans for the day . . .I feel kinda guilty sending Bigfoot off to work while I stay home on my break.
Obviously, not much going on here . . .

Enjoy your break. Glad Bigfoot can pull the wagon for a change. ;) I'm heading home this morning. Sure enjoyed my trip to Odessa and visiting family, but its time to go home. Its already been Christmas here so no need to hang around until the official day.

It is hell getting old but being old is not so bad. That is not to say it's easy it's just easier than getting there.
I can tell you that being old is not for wimps. When you hear the old complain of various aches (including heartaches) and pains keep in mind that they are only telling part of the story.

Second opinion sounds like a fantastic idea! I love the profile picture..
