The Weekend 5 (Sunday, May 30th 2021)

 Welcome. Last one of these for the month of May. Crazy. Hard to believe we are now heading to the middle of the year. Yikes!!

1. Been thinking about my therapy and injuries a lot more than I should I guess. Yesterday marked 10 months since I hurt myself on the bike and also 11 months since I filed my workmenscomp injury case for work. I've been dealing with my neck pains and injury for over a year and going on towards nearly a year of my shoulder. I praise God for healing me. Its just a slow process. And some days I feel more pains and I am tired and I just let the pain get to me. 

2. Did my shoulder therapy this week. And thank God slowly but sure I am getting more approved. Which is a great thing. Thank God for that! I also got paid for taking that Monday off for my injections. Little things to be thankful about. After therapy we went and saw peacocks again. It was fun time again so yeah

3. Church beautiful last week. We are super close to getting our building. God willing we will have it sooner then later in time to get it fixed up before we kicked out on July 10th. Yes church love :)

4. Gym did it twice again. I kinda miss doing it three times a week this is the second week we only did it twice sad sigh :( Only did one walks as well on Tuesday. But it was a nice walk at that. So there you go.

5. Work is kinda crappy this week. They changed my schedule (again) yes I need 40hrs a week but they did it on a day I was planning stuff on next Wednesday I had it all planned out to go the book study for church and then they go and give me a full shift mid. So now I am gonna call out and use my paid time off for that. I got talked to by my manger on Monday for some issues half of her blame actually all was not for me like things she blamed me for. And then Wednesday I screwed up by accident and Saturday got my first coach. Which means goes on my record for a year a write up for my job kind. I get 2 more and I get fired. I have been there 2.5 years on the 10th of June and this is my thanks. I think God is trying to make me uncomfortable so I start to actually look for work. Come on this is motivation it is. I spent half my Saturday in garden which made me glad for real :) 

Well I am exhausted and only half way through my 4 day holiday weekend crowd. Yuck. Have a blessed week. And see you all in June :) 

The Weekend 5 (Sunday, May 23rd 2021)

Welcome. Less busy week is done. Next week is even less busy yup yup

1. Work this week busy busy usual. I worked all my shift. Including the fact they gave me 40hrs this week and next week so I am working more. You know I wanted to work more. Its exhausting me but I need the money and hours. Sure its confusing. They didnt touch in two weeks just this week and next week. The following I am back to my less then 40hrs odd shifts. Oh boy.

2. Church beautiful. Love smiles and hugs. And all that good jazz. And we starting up the book club next month. Sadly on Wednesdays so it will be harder for me to go but I will try a few times! I am just excited its in person. Last Summer we did it on Zoom. I hated it so much! I love my church. Praying we find a building soon we running out of time...

3. Workouts. Gym only twice sadly :( this after WEEKS of doing it three times. Just didnt work. I worked a full closing and she worked a full opening so we couldn't do it more than twice. Monday and again on Friday. Ugh. But nice still we used to only go once a week I guess twice better then that. And anything better then no gym like it was a year ago. Did two walks too. Yes I did. Love them too!!

4. Tuesday was a busy day. I had an appointment in La Jolla with a specialist. Good news I got from that is: my neck will get better & I dont need surgery. Other then that it was pretty pointless. But we did go to the aquarium first time in almost 4 years! Fun. Food before and after. Yup. Busy day. Thursday back to my shoulder therapy. I have to fight for more I have 3 left. I also made an appointment for my dentist cleaning but a month in advance they so booked up people are so weird. They waited to get their shots before doing cleanings :/

5. Its been 7 years since we had those bad fires in our area very scary. They nearly got us and Legoland and a bunch of places. Most were set on fire. I will never get why people get a thrill from doing that so wrong. Glad we are not having them this year fingers crossed. 

Okay then one more of these till we almost in June. Times a flying. Have a good week. God bless you!! :)

The Weekend 5 (Sunday, May 16th 2021)

 Welcome to another fun filled week! Or was it?

1. Work this week was short lived. I didnt work at all for 5 days total (2 I already get off). I had to call out and had time off too. So I only worked this past week on Friday & Saturday. Woohoo. Was like a mini vacation except I wasn't doing fun stuff on either day I called out on. Just on Sunday when I got off like I should have gotten Wednesday off but they didnt do that...

2. Church was beautiful on Sunday. It was mothers day so that was fun. Me and my sister both got off that was great. Church I had my very good friend and also my Pastor prayed for me for my procedure on Monday that was freaking me out. Love and hugs there too. Later on we went out to eat at Islands and took a drive tried to not do anything unless my mother being her day wanted to...yup

3. GYM did it three times this week. Monday we went early in the morning because of my procedure later on, then we did it Wednesday and then again on Friday. Yup. Only one walk this week on Thursday. I was not feeling like walking on Tuesday I wanted to do nothing at all and that is pretty much what I did. Oh well. 

4. Monday I had my procedure I had 2 injections in my neck for pain. I am still praying they begin to work it could take up to 2 weeks for them to settle down in there. Gods got this! It was a scary thing. I have had only one surgery ever in my life and that was for my knee injury in 1999. That was an actual surgery. This was not but it was sure darn close. They gave me an IV for the numb of the area but it kinda knocked me out. I recall getting on the table and face down and them washing my neck and then next thing I know it they saying I needed to roll onto the bed they rolled me out on. After I sat for a few minutes they knew I was okay I was taken out in a wheelchair I could not walk on my own. I was so dizzy. At home I finally just relaxed the pain came later on. I began to ice it finally. I kept the bandaids on till Thursday skipping my actual shower. No I didnt have to they told me I could shower next day but I chose this I was just freaked out by all this. Wednesday we went and I saw my specialist that had done my shot on Monday. And he told me that there are other options too if this works and the pain comes back we can do radiology or something. He is also asking for more therapy and I have a specialist I am seeing next week too in La Jolla not close to home. It was a lot to take in tbh. I am just glad I can get paid for Monday which is good so I only get 1 point once this in and 1 day not paid. I'm kinda over this but oh well. 

5. Its been 11 years since we flew from TN to CA with my dog Rainbow whom yes I still miss so much. But that flight was interesting for sure doing all that with my dog. Of course we thought we should move back to be closer to home after that and months later we ended up moving to Arizona. All cause we came out for a week to California to visit. 

Another busy week ahead of me. I did skip my shoulder therapy cause I was unsure after my thing if I wanted to. But I did miss doing it for sure. Back to it this week. Have a good week. God bless you!! :)

The Weekend 5 (Sunday, May 9th 2021)

Happy Mothers Day out there to all you moms! Whether you have human kids or furry children they are still children. Happy day one and all!

1. Church was beautiful last week. Great message. Great love afterwards. Hugs and love. Some sadness as one of my dear friends is moving across the country but promises to come back for a visit once a month. I will miss her so much. Still such a blessing having friends that love me and pray for me so when they leave sure it leaves a hole in my heart but I am glad I still know them and will see them again. If not on earth in heaven for sure. Blessings!!

2. Tuesday went on a walk with my dear friend wife of my Pastor. She's a wonderful lady. We been trying to find time for a walk together. So we walked by the beach. Beautiful day out btw. I sure felt that later on lol but it was still a fun time. It kinda wore me out and I came home and took a nap for a few hours I was so tired. Yawn. Oh well.

3. GYM this week another 3 times we doing so great!! Even small workouts mean we getting shape. So happiness. We went on Monday, Wednesday before work and again on Saturday after work. Love the gym. Also did a walk by the house on Thursday I skipped on Tuesday (see above) was just too tired from my beach walk. Oh well.

4. Work is busy and we so short handed. Ugh. I mean Sunday was okay we had plenty then Monday we had 1 closer. Wednesday I had to close alone :( but Friday and Saturday both mornings so it good. We usually covered during the day and morning usually its nights we have issues with on some days....sigh. But after Saturday I am off for 5 days total (including 2 I am always off and 3 more plus). Yup.

5. I had my last chiropractor on Thursday :( A piece of me is not prepared for this. 12 sessions of each thing and now we done. But I have my injection next week this coming one, another doctors and another specialist. I am just praying we nearing the end of what they can do and nearing the end of this issue so I can be done going to the doctors and just focus on my shoulder. Oh please.

Well busy week this one. I am not working much but sure am doing a lot. Have a blessed day. See you all next weekend. God bless you!! :)
