Yesterday I had a specialist appointment for my hip - Mr. Ice Man. Jon said, "What did you expect? He's a surgeon!" True, but this man topped the cake of iciness. The MRI of my hip showed two tears, some arthritis and bursitis. He felt that the pain I've been experiencing comes from my back, not my hip. However, since he is the specialist, he knew right where to push to give me intense pain. And he give me a shot of cortizone in the hip. Jon said it was a good thing I didn't see the needle. You know, Jon enjoys the medical trauma I go through way too much. He's getting a wide scope of more medical knowledge thanks to me.
We went to FCS's, Logan's Steakhouse for lunch, then Barnes and Noble before I told Jon I needed to get home, take a pain killer and ice my hip. Believe it or not, I watched 2 Christmas movies. I've watched more movies in the past week or so than I have in the past 2 years!
Today my hip was better but my back wasn't. I did go to a friend's house who had an essential oils class, then Jane met Rachel, Jessie and me at Ocean Breeze for our annual Christmas lunch then back to the house to exchange presents. When they left I sat on the couch for a bit, played on the iPad then took a nap.
I need to get busy and do some paperwork. I've been concentrating on Christmas for weeks, now I need to concentrate on getting caught up then doing Income Tax stuff. It never ends. I hate paperwork! I'm sure I've said that before a time or two!
Wishing all of you a Happy New Year! May 2015 have more blessings than all the stars in the sky. Becky
