I had a MRI a couple weeks ago to see what was going on with my back...Come to find out I have lumbar spinal stenosis...a product of old age, I guess. I go to a Physiologist - whatever that means - on the 9th. In the meantime I am on a non-narcotic pain med and Aleve....I surely don't want back surgery but I surely don't want to hurt either. Perhaps a cortisone shot or two will do the trick like it did with my knee.....The short time I spent in re-hab didn't do much but make it hurt more....Mercy me!!
Susie came to visit from New Hampshire...and that was fun!! We were able to have the whole family together for Dian's birthday. What a treat!! Love it when that happens! Her birthday was the 18Th and we went to dinner at the Cabbage Patch, In Snohomish. Then she left the 19Th at midnight for the long flight home. Fortunately they have avoided both the earthquake and the hurricane that are plaguing the East Coast.
We finally have some actual summer weather.....I LOVE it! My apartment stays fairly cool - compared to most of the others - I have a hedge in front of me and that seems to provide enough shade to keep it cool. Down at the river, however, the breezes blow and it is ideal!
Granddaughter Brooke's birthday is the 28Th (August was a busy month for the Mortlands ) She will be 30 years ole! I can't believe it! Her 2nd baby is due the 10Th of Sept...it is a girl...and we are super excited...
Well...I'd best get to gettin' Talk to you later!
