Yay for the small stuff!

So, minor accomplishments ftw. I finally found a ride to the store (Our car was surrendered in April) and I made it ALL the way through the grocery store without getting dizzy or fainting! Yay!!

Just FYI I I'm on bed rest because of the gall bladder and I have OMGWTFBBQ sever sciatica in my lower back, so walking in general is a horrible painful exercise in self inflicted torture.

But I was on my feet for Three hours and I don't feel like I'm going to die!

I also won $25 on a lotto ticket and got garden fresh veggies from a friend. So it was a win evening for me.

I think you should all celebrate your minor wins for the day, and share them

 

Awesome win(s). Glad you didn't get broken

Hmm. I got 3 cucumbers from my garden today. Oh.. my garden beans FINALLY started to flower. 3 more green peppers almost ready to be picked.

Finished a part of the new website for my employers publicly facing webstore.

Oh.. and Enzo totally passed out on my lap tonight. I love that.

 

Gee when i pass out on your lap you just smack me in the head and say "Bitch, who said you could take a break"... I see how it is.

My friend Claudia live out by you and she gave me a bag of her homegrown cucumbers that are just indecently large... I wish I had the patience to grow a garden.

 

Hey, you're the one who commanded I say that.

Yeah, my CC's get to be about 13-14 inches in length. I don't let them get to thick because if they are a little thin, they're sweeter and make for awesome pickles; and the plant grows more of them too.

 

Yeah these are like the size of a baseball bat, they probably won't taste like much, but it was nice of her to give them to me

 

Jeeeebus!!! that's way too big. They'll taste like water with vegetable skin. blech.

 

Congrats on the Wins for the Day! However, that sciatica you're complaining about (sounds like compression on the nerve root due to lower back problem - I expect a disc bulge) needs some form of tending...bed rest helps but reduces your quality of life unless you find some resolution.

Not sure how severe problem is (i.e. disc bulge may correct itself or perhaps may need intrusive solution) but I hope you can find some outcome...hydrotherapy (heated pool exercises? or just walking up and down a pool) can be quite beneficial.

Sorry to hear you're having such a bad time of it Girl.

Cheers

Minor wins for the day: Not a single customer threatened to sue me! And in more serious news, three of the customers I helped today (I work in a tech support call center) asked me to transfer them to my supervisor so they could compliment me and tell him how awesome I am. Rawr. :major

What can I say, I take pride in the fact that I am very good at my job.

 

Another day goes by, so far still functioning with a bad back and no pain pills. Loving this damn heating pad.... :-D
