Larry, I'm glad the PT is helping you. Gurjeet definitely sounds like he knows what he's doing.

Gladys Knight was excellent. We were told she would perform 70 to 90 minutes. She actually performed for 1:45 and was center stage for all of it. She did most of her hits, had sing-alongs to "You're the Best Thing That Ever Happened to Me" and "Midnight Train to Georgia," and even paid tribute to Aretha Franklin and Marvin Gaye. She didn't do any of "Try to Remember" before her "Way We Were," but that was a beautiful performance of the song. My favorite was a soulful version of "Someone to Watch Over Me" as a tribute to Ella Fitzgerald, who apparently took her under her wing early in Knight's career.

Sounds like a great show.

I'm very tired. The Tizanidine and the Tylenol PM help me sleep, but I cannot get a strong paomn medication out of my doctor, and she will not continue prescribing the Tramadol. I sleep well for a while, but moving with these cramps in my left leg keeps me awake half the night.

Do you take any magnesium? It's estimated that 75-80% of Americans don't get enough of it. (Blood tests aren't a reliable indicator, since it's not stored in the blood.) 100-200 mg before bed might help you. It's very calming. There's a homeopathic form, also: magnesia phos. (I'd recommend a 30C potency.) I use it when I have bad muscle spasms and have taken all the painkillers I can safely take. I also keep a low-dose form (cell salts) next to my bed. If I wake during the night it's easy to just pop one in my mouth. No water required, no need to turn on the light. It dissolves quickly and has a slight, pleasant taste. No conflict with your drugs, either.

Hope you find somthing that works for you.

Vibes that Laura's car is now happy and continues to give good service for many more years.

My appointment with the doctor was at 9:10. He did not come to see me until 10:55. Then he had nothing to say because Aetna denied his asking for a CT scan (only one a year and i had that in April). I’m glad I could listen to some of a book on my phone. Otherwise, morning wasted.

I would be rather angry & highly annoyed. Did he apologize at all?

Yes. But since the CT scan was canceled, his staff should have canceled this session. Big system error.

I see waaayyyy too much of this. Everyone is so indifferent. Sorry your morning was wasted.

Speaking of pies, I've had some vegetable pot pies and vegetable pastry that were very tasty. I don't come across them very often. I do wish they were more common.

I will be having a therapy session tomorrow with Katy. It will most likely be uncomfortable, but needs to be done.

I'll let Vixmom take over. Between wash loads, that is.

TTFN.

Larry, thanks for the information about the Miss Fisher movies. The last time I'd checked on it no release date was given. Also no details, including the cast. I'm glad to see that Nathan Page and Bert and Cec are still there. I'll miss Mr Butler, though.

I'm watching DOWNTON ABBEY, the second time through. It holds up very well. I'm looking forward to the movie. Amazon lists the movie as a bestseller, even though it hasn't released yet.

DR Elmore, Richard received quite a shock today when he went to pick up his dry cleaning and found a notice on the door that Gough-Lamb is going out of business. The owner had a stroke and, apparently, is not expected to survive.

Oh, no. That's so sad.

Well, it's time for me to leave and head downtown to volunteer for a concert with two guitar trios. I'm sure that it'll be very good. I don't know how much I'll miss...hopefully, not too much. I'm working barback with one of the actual bartenders who serves mixed drinks, so that's different than what I usually do in concessions. But that can be fun itself.

Until later!

We take 250 mg in the morning & another (different source) 100 mg in the early evening.

Getting one with a glass top (if weighs less & is less painful on my shoulder) was extra fun.

Bryan cooked the best veggetable, even better than my favorite chicken, pot pies I ever had. I got the recipe but didn't feel like putting in the work required to make them.

Darn, I hadn't noticed he won't be in the movie. I will also miss him.

I worked out in the cold tonight. And my hands are still cold.

It was a fun evening though. A mariachi band and a mambo troupe performed before a showing of Coco. I left halfway through the movie, because I could and because I was just too cold.

Starting to watch Spike Lee's He Got Game. I really enjoyed this when it came out.

I've got a dozen or so movies in at the library to keep me busy for the rest of the time.

John G. · « **Reply #114 on:** October 25, 2019, 07:45:09 PM »

I had forgotten Spike Lee uses Aaron Copland's music as a background for scenes of basketball. It's a great marriage of music and image.

There's still another half hour left in the movie, which is as good as I remember it.
