I’m up at 2:30 tonight with back hurting. I slept in the recliner as best I can with TENs unit on, but not being able to roll over is the pits. It doesn’t bother me in the chair or walking, just lying down in the bed. Grrrr.....

I told my orthopedic dr that if testing for any arthritis cures come along, put my name in the hat to be a test dummy. Not likely to happen. :(

The internet gets pretty boring when everybody is asleep. LOL

In San Antonio, they have clinical trials out the wazoo, but most of them say,, "between the ages of 29 to 60, and healthy.

The only place I know I have arthritis is in my knees. The right one was operated on some years ago to clean out arthritic crap. Neither knee is great, cushion between the bones mostly gone, and that's why I have a permanent handicap hanger in my car. Walking long distances isn't going to happen. So, if there is arthritis somewhere else, it isn't hurting me.

I know a person who got a hospital bed so she could raise it to have her upper body somewhat up instead of flat in the bed. A wedge pillow also raises you. That pillow is very firm to hold up the upper body. It does not depress like a regular pillow does when you are on it.

Bwaaaaahhhh! My Mail already came, and no Cucuzza Seeds :((

Got out the chain saw, got rid of some ligustrum almost all the way to the ground. One, had grown around rebar with grounding wire, and the power supply cord to an electric fence unit..That was fun..not.

Now, it’s getting kinda hot out there to be chainsawing stuff (if you are a wuss like me, anyway).
