.
Good morning....
Last day before we go away. OH, who has severe lower spine arthritis has chosen ( not exactly his fault I know but it feels that way.....)this week for a flare up which means I will have to do all the bending today to put the luggage I already sorted and packed into the car. Ahhhh!.....( add your own expletives depending on your chosen vocabulary)
GP phoned neurologue as Covid had cancelled my rv and together they have increased my tablets in a hope to illiminate some of the numbness and burning and pins and needles that have worsened of late. I'm a little reluctant to move to the increased dose....weight gain and dependency etc....but I do need to be mobile while mum lives here and there is no doubt the neuropathy is causing problems. I'm just so pleased that revised thinking on giving Taxoteres means fewer patients react as I did.
So, it's another busy but lovely day here. First job to wash the floor.....OH has a homing device on my mop if I do it later, he will have been nowhere to be seen for ages but as soon as the floor is wet......there are his garden foot prints. But early...he sleeps....
So I'll sign out for a few days. If you would enjoy them I'll post some holiday snaps here as well for the walks we do on other threads?
Take care all. I'm so pleased incoming results and recovering ailments have been positive this week.
Let's hope we all continue this way.
Au revoir. À bientôt.
Safe holidays, and yes, photos please, Lacomtekp , take care of your back. So sorry OH is having a flare up.
It’s chilly and cloudy here still, daughter is in Manchester to teach and as an extra for the Hallé too, a couple of concerts, says she was astonished at how much warmer and sunnier it was!

Ah. Lacomtekp sorry to hear you seem to be doing everything. Love the homing device!! I take your point about meds and side effects. Neuropathy is horrible and very disabling. Don’t know how you keep going at the mo.
Have a lovely holiday and do post some pics xx
Onwards and flatwards (don't do hills) and keep walking if you can!
Men eh can't live with them can't live without them. Haha Some never learn, about used to try and teach him but alas it has had little effect.
My son is on a change of meds for his Epilepsy to say I am in tenter hooks is an understatement. Anxiety high today. Start my Hope Course today though. Timing couldn't be better. I danced to help mynergy and for distraction. It did work but now it's back. This is where I danced today. Such an amazing location.
