I need a good time out. First I should say BOO ! It is Hollow's Eve. Then I should tell you why I need a slap. I have been awake since 1 am and I was in such agony with my leg. I did see the Pain Management doctor who decided it was time for injections. Okay. I made sure the Med Tech would remain to hold my hand. There was the first one just below my knee, not too bad. Then there were 4 along the hip/hip bone area. These were painful and I suggested that there should be a grab bar on the wall as pushing the wall did not really help. I left there with the plan to come home, make an antipasti salads and have it outside and read for awhile. The weather was gorgeous. This I did. Then I knew it would be best to just rest the leg. I did.
Fast forward to this morning. I told myself to have a cup of hot tea and maybe I would fall back to sleep. Not to happen. Problem...as I lay there in pain I used the gel medication and took a Naproxen. After awhile it began to ease the ache and I was no closer to sleep. So---my mind began to wander. I put a wash on (now 5 am) and when I returned to the bedroom I said, I think I can re-purpose this nightstand to a TV stand thus eliminating the large TV stand that I do not like or need.
the room is a totally disaster and I plan to organize it a little a ta time as I do not have much energy left. But I gained some space and it is less crowded in the corner. Now to get the old stand out of the room. Finally at 7 am it was accomplished but not without difficulty. I had such trouble taking the screws out for the draw runners (there are 2 drawers). Once that was accomplished I had to unplug the cable box, the combo DVD/VHS player and then the Blu-ray layer. Of course what is unplugged must then be re-plugged....oh my goodness what was I thinking. Now Alan, before you scream at me----especially since we talked and you were happy about my relaxing more and having days-off, I know. I will probably regret this all later. For now I am proud that I accomplished this task. I promise not to do anything strenuous for the next few days at least!
My intentions once I was up early was to post about the Snail Vine...
Just look at how fast it is growing: #1 is today, #2 is September 17 and #3 is October 17. I love this vine and the many blooms of snails.
Are you still in the mood for more stuff? If not I understand. If so....
I sent for a new Teneriffe kit from Gina-B Silkworks in the UK
I have another kit but this is an updated one. I know the basics but these directions are baffling...I will enjoy playing with it I am sure. Thanks to USA Customs it sat in LA from October 17th and just arrived Saturday...what were they inspecting it for??? Glad it finally arrived. So, that is my story and sad to say I am crazy.
The laundry is finished, I need must have my morning coffee and I think a Pizzelle would be good. I am not even going to look at my bedroom for the next few hours. I will get dressed and sit outside and read for a time. One task at a time. Sorry it is a long post, but hey, I had to tell someone what I did. The Brother Alan is going to be short with me, but it will pass. Just when I think there is no more to move I see something. This is finally it though...it is!
Thank you for reading all of this and it is okay if you did not. Thank you for the kind words and most of all your friendship. Time to relax....

Well, if you can't sleep then it's good to accomplish something! haha
Although I'm sure your leg would appreciate the rest. Don't over-do it, Gracie! The weather is gorgeous, and sitting outside to read sounds heavenly. I may make time to do that today at lunch time. Happy Halloween!
Take care gracie with your leg , mine has only just got better after 8 weeks .
Enjoy your reading and sewing and sitting in the garden .

How is your leg feeling now? I hope you are improving. Jacob is 23 today. Tonight we have cake and take out Chinese. :D
Boy, are we related! You should be resting your leg Miss Gracie, but I probably would do the same.
Beautiful vine! 🎃💕

Not so good to read about your painful leg and all the injections. I do hope that they helped. I'm sure that some resting will do it good.
Oh naughty Gracie, I am wagging my finger at the computer telling you off lol.
I'm backing the Brother Alan too, you must be careful!
I hope you'll get better - and get some more sleep!
