Yes, I was MIA again. I managed to fall asleep for a couple of hours yesterday after cousin #3 left. We packed up a large garbage bag of my husband's clothes and a box of household items for donation. We will continue with this the next time she comes over.
J will be coming today to do her usual. Maybe we will bag up more of my husband's clothes or go through a couple of boxes. They are having another shredding event in October; so I am having one of the ladies pull old files for the shredding box.
I have someone coming on Wednesday to give me an estimate on the tree pruning and removal.
My shoulders are killing me. I want to put off seeing a doctor for them as long as possible. I don't want shots or replacement....and physical therapy is not an option.

Sounds like you’ve been getting a lot done, even if it’s exhausting. Sorting through your husband’s things can’t be easy either… that’s a lot physically and emotionally.
Are your shoulders hurting more because of all the lifting and sorting, or has it been going on for a while?

I don't do the lifting. The pain has been going on for a couple of years now.

I hope your shoulders feel better soon.
I ate raspberries for breakfast along with an egg sandwich, ate some pasta with hamburger for lunch and had ripe strawberries for supper a little while ago.

The shoulders are quite a concern. They grind, pop and snap and hurt like hell.

@LindaOHio You know what you should do so I won't harass you about it.

If I were to go to Florida, I would need to get rid of at least 50% of all the stuff!!!

I understand the surgery reluctance, but why are you hesitant about shots? I’ve had those shots in my back and neck and they do help for a good amount of time. Is it just the whole process?
Yesterday, I had a piece of sausage, an English muffin with strawberry jam, two tacos, a chicken sandwich with tomatoes and mozzarella, and some strawberries.

My son has had both shoulders/rotator cuffs replaced. After the wreck, and after his arm surgery healed, they had to re-do the rotator cuff on that arm because it tore in the wreck. It was forever healing...and he had those shots and says they really helped. He also did some therapy to regain motion, it helped, too. I do know it can be arranged to have the PT in your home if you can't get out. That could be an option for you, you don't want to lose more mobility. Heck, you HAVE to type, or you wouldn't be here on mylot!!

I don't think I'm eating enough. I'm barely getting 1000 calories and I was only getting 750 but I'm forcing myself to drink a protein shake at night to at least hit 1000.
