Iris, my doctor seems to think that is caused by a pinched nerve in my neck.

I hope there is a way to lessen the pain.
Sometimes prednisone works, oral or injected.
Guess you take anti-inflammatory drugs already.
Does your doctor think physical therapy might help?

Belated thanks rto our DRs Jeanne and TCB for their late night birthday wishes. I also owe BK a huge apology for completely omitting him from my thanks since he was my first well wisher, and I blew it.

I am so sorry, BK!

Ann stopped by when she got home, and she and I had a piece of that beautiful cake that Kevin Duda sent me yesterday afternoon. It's a vanilla cake with whipped cream frosting and chopped strawberries between the layers. The top is decorated with strawberry halves and white chocxolate. It looks glorious and tastes far better.

Ah, yes.  She was editor of the Women’s Page in the local paper.  She and my mother-in-law were tight enough that the day after our wedding my picture and a nice write-up appeared prominently on page 2 of the Lifestyle section (or whatever it was called in 1981).

DR Elmore might also have a Chardy Weber story or two.

I think it was DR singdaw who asked me a couple of weeks ago about my Access-a-Ride status. When I had my interview on Aug. 8, I was told I would hear something in three weeks.

Well, today I heard from them. I am approved until September, 2027! And they send me a laminated card with my photo. I am very pleased.

That is very good news!

As a retired university mathematics professor perhaps he can explain the complicated formula needed to calculate one’s age by subtracting a birthdate from the current date

LOL.....I just remember laughing very hard at this exchange.

Woody Allen: I work at the Follies Bergere helping the girls change their clothes.
Someone: What's the pay?
Woody Allen:  Twelve francs a week.
Someone: That's not much.
Woody Allen: It's all I can afford to pay them.

A Peter Sellers quote that nauseated my mother who saw it when I was ushering at the theater where it played in Greenville SC:

"I like thighs. Do YOU like thighs?"

I do not remember who he was saying that to

How you been, Ron?

Somewhat adrift, I am sorry to say.

My sinus issues have intensified, and I stay medicated with little result other than snoozing a lot of my days away.

I test for COVID and continue to get negative results.

Sigh.

If vixmom needs a couple of more years to qualify for Medicaid, I'll gladly donate some.

So, am I to presume we're NOT having a get-together? Because that is not going to sit well with me, since there have been get-togethers when anyone comes in - I think the same thing happened last time. Let's not let it happen again.
