MY BRAIN IS THE SPECTATOR and OFF BALANCE AGAIN!!

      Today I am going out to lunch to celebrate my friend's birthday!!


 I am in pain but it isn't as bad as it has been before. But my balance is totally off!! I fell into the kitchen counter  three times this morning.  I wrenched my arm but it isn't too bad.  My arm started sliding across the counter because it was still wet from the Fantastic I used to clean it. It is strange when you see things happening to yourself and you can't stop them. It is sort of like my brain is the spectator at my physical problems and it has a front row seat I was only wiping the counter and picking up a cup off of it to put into the trash!! SOOOO ANNOYING to keep falling! I keep fighting to not use my walker but I think I should. I just never seem to learn the lessons I should be following! I NEED to use my walker and I NEED to stop bending over!!I cleaned up for about two hours and then I left for the birthday lunch! Whenever the four of us go out together, it is the best time ever!! Carol cracks me up, I start laughing when she starts telling a story and she is barely into it before I start cracking up! I forgot I had Parkinson's while I was out with my friends but as soon as I got up, it reared it's ugly head again!!(kind of like Trump rearing his ugly head due to his guilty conscience!!)
as ugly a person in spirit as there can be

Trump’s guilty conscience just reared its ugly head in frantic Mueller report tweet

 
     

Carol's shirt from last night! And it is so true! 

   
    I post my blog in about 8 places.  The administrator of Parkinson's Disease Fighters removed my post about Crying. He said it was too depressing  and the picture was too sad.  He only wants uplifting posts on his Facebook page. Needless to say, I am done posting on that page!! So many members from that page have told me that they feel so good reading my blog because they can relate to it so much and they feel less alone! People with PD have good days and bad days!

Stiff Neck

Image
        Today I woke up with a stuff neck! It is so painful that I forgot about my sciatica for a while. I took two Tylenol every few hours and maybe that is why my sciatica didn't bother me as much as it usually does.  I could feel the pain in my neck every time I moved! I didn't realize how much I move my head all day long until it was painful to do so. I got up at 7:30 because I had workers coming to clean my kitchen floor. I just can't do it any more!  They didn't get to my house until 9:30 because they are also working on my driveway and had to get filler and blacktop stuff!   I cleaned the kitchen while I waited for them. Tomorrow I just have to clean the family room and run my Roomba! My Parkinson's was definitely front and center, even with my stiff neck. I kept freezing in one spot and my  balance was way off!. It is really annoying to be cleaning a toilet and feeling  like you are going to fall into the bowl!! Yesterday I chatt...

Beautiful Day at the Cemetery Visiting our daughter Amy

Image
         Today was an absolutely beautiful day, it was probably in the high seventies. When it's a nice day, we always take our folding chairs and sit at the cemetery for awhile. I had my book with me and Dan took the newspaper. On the front page was a sad story about two young women who used Heroin.  One young woman purchased the heroin and the other young woman died from an overdose.  The purchaser and her 17 year old sister left the young woman, an only child, in a bathroom in a fast food place when they couldn't revive her with water, etc. That young woman was found after they left and taken to a hospital where she died. Now,  the young woman who purchased the heroin  was sentenced to twenty something years in prison. Her 17 year old  sister testified against her and was set free after the trial  I think that is a rather severe sentence but a bright and beautiful young woman is dead forever.         ...

WARNING ABOUT GABAPENTIN AND PREGABALIN

Image
Yesterday we went to see The Christmas Miracle at a sight and sound theater! It was amazing and we all had a nice time. Olya and her boyfriend Matt came with us, they met  us there because Olya went home with Matt on Friday.  Olivia and her "friend" Anthony also met us there.  I think they all had a nice time at the show.  We went to eat at the Waffle House after the performance! Yesterday was NOT a bad day for me with PD, but it was really bad with Sciatica.  I think my Sciatica is worse when it is cold! And it was really cold here yesterday!  I have been wearing my scarf and my gloves in the house, I have no idea whether it is PD related or not. I have a gas insert fireplace and I run it constantly so my house is usually warm, not sure why I am so so cold.          Today we went with my sister and her three adult children to see the play Buddy the Elf! It was really cute, it sort of really gets us ...
