    Worked today then went to WalMart to get veges for the gazpacho I want to make tomorrow and to buy gas (gulp). You get 5% rebate on all Sam’s club purchases (including gas) but if you buy it on any Sat. in June you get 10% back. So I bought gas.

    Now cooling milk for yogurt. After I get it in the IP, I’ll go in the pool.

    Carol – I’d never heard of Pledge floor cleaner. Where did you get it?

    Pip – I think you made the right decision regarding Yogi. That’s so wonderful that Kirby wants to be with him. I can’t imagine if something happened when you were away. So happy he’s out of surgery

    Went for a walk to the Dollar Tree yesterday and got the poster board. Admitted, I walk slower. It’s amazing how much you bend your little toe.

    Well, yogurt in the IP

    Lisa – good luck at the doctors

    Jess didn’t get the one place that she really wanted. I can’t help wondering if it’s because she has Shadow. She and Colby are going to take a virtual tour of another place. The bad thing is that it isn’t available until sometime in August. So she’ll have to stay with a friend of hers until then. We suspect that when they do move, the Mom and Dad Moving Company will be employed….lol Colby will stay here with Shadow for those few weeks. She’s been preapproved for this place. So we shall see what happens, if they like it or not.

    Katie – welcome Georgie! All our cats are rescue cats. Bonnie, in particular, had a hard time trusting us but she eventually came around. She would eat real fast but we know that because she was so small, she had to do it in the wild in order to get something to eat.

    Rebecca – happy early birthday

    No work tomorrow so I can exercise. Yea!!! The plan is to do a Total Body Metabolic DVD (this is for the rebounder). I have a note that it isn’t too intense so hopefully I won’t have much of a problem with my toe.

    Barbie – my heart goes out to you. Know that you are doing what Sasha would want you to do and that you gave her a great home.

    After work today went to WalMart and then Sam’s for gas. Was there ever a line. Vince filled his Outlook and it took $78. My car took $45. Time for the second mortgage….lol Came home and went in the pool a bit. Lectored at the church. My CPAP came and we started to get it set up. Looks like I need a smaller nasal mask so I will call them Monday and ask if the home visit person can bring a small.

    I saw one flea on Teddy the other day, and today he is infested again. The vet said I should switch from Frontline plus to Frontline Gold, but I have to wait until he's due for more. So I gave him the capstar meanwhile. Poor baby.

    I did my dumbbells but it took me an extra half hour because Teddy kept interrupting me for scritches.

    Diet was terrible today. Runaway cookies. No reason. I need to get over this Tomorrow.

    :'( Today will be Sasha's last day. She is not eating or drinking and is completely disoriented and doesn't want to go out for her walk. Our regular vet is closed on Saturday so we called the 24/7 emergency vet about an hour's drive away. They will let us know when we can come over. They deal with crisis emergency so it's like waiting in the ER behind heart attacks and gunshot wounds. Bessie and Sasha will be afraid being left alone for a few hours when Sasha leaves so I am going to stay home. My Sunday walking friend is going to ride with Jake so he won't be alone and I'll stay here so the other pets won't be alone. Sasha is the last of her litter and would have been 15 years old next week.

    So sorry. :heartbreak:

    At the coast this evening. Lovely sunset, and I got 12000 beach steps in.

    Sorry about your pup, Barbie. Hope your pup has a quick recovery, Pip.

    Sorry you're sick, Rori, but thankful it is mild.

    Beautiful!

    I am actually aiming for an hour a day, but obviously I need to up my game a little bit.

    My doctor did mention that more exercise is good.

    Just a shout out for the carers amongst us. I am always in awe. I won't mention you, as I know I will forget some, but just know I hugely appreciate everything you do. You know who you are.

    Barbie-sorry Sasha has wound down. Very caring of you taking other fur babies into consideration.

    Debbie-hope your husband and you don't get too worn out with MIL. At least she thanked you for your work-this sounds different than some of her typical described behavior.

    Rori-glad your Covid symptoms seem to be relatively mild. Regarding testing afterwards, I do keep reading that one can test positive for some time after having Covid but isn't necessarily contagious (most employers are not requiring a negative test before return to work, just clearing of major symptoms).

    Sue in WA-torn ligaments can be very painful. In high school I tore all the ligaments on the side of my left foot. Doc said then I would have been better off just breaking something. Never did rehab or such things back in 1970. All of these years later that foot gives me fits. Have to work on stretches and balance. Hope they can give you rehab plan.

    New pt order
    So I have mentioned my issues with UTI and I am also having prolapse issues. Gyn wants me to go to physical therapy for the pelvic floor. It should be an interesting experience. Has anyone had this type of therapy? He says that surgery may well be in my future but he thinks if I can get muscles (think about core etc.) tightened and working right it will make recovery better even if it doesn't take care of issue without it. Well, if it can help might as well give it a try!

    Off to Sunday chores. Would like to have most of packing done for trip Wednesday today (I get hyper about forgetting something). Looks ike there will be a break in rain this am so will walk then. Have to do a return to Amazon at Kohls also.

    Have a good Sunday.

    Take care all,

    I went to pelvic physio a few years ago.
    Apparently I have a prolapsed bladder which means I have a little pouch where urine collects and thus I don't empty completely.
    - incomplete emptying of the bladder
    - slow flow of urine
    - hesitancy or delayed start of urine stream
    - urinary urgency
    - urinary frequency

    My situation is the opposite to yours in the sense that my pelvic floor is solid ... too solid: a hypertonic pelvic floor likely caused by the stress from my husband's accident. I went for relaxation therapies.
    https://www.continence.org.au/news/hypertonic-pelvic-floor

    My pelvic physio specialised in that. If you find someone like that, I would recommend going.
