At the orthopedic Dr today. Having trouble with my right heal. See if he can figure out what's going on. Need to be able to keep doing the important things in life, like pick up my grandchildren and carry them.

Had my tea on the road this morning.

Have a beautiful day! 💞

Do you have a bone spur?

Coffee is ready. Ive slept late last couple of days. Back on early wake up now. I’ve been working on my list of things to do, mostly outside. Then I’m going to start on cleaning up the back. That’s going to be a chore. Weeds over my head, railroad cross ties to get out of the ground, they were posts for a round pen that has been torn down. Tear down a shed and a long chute full of blackberry canes over my head. That’s my fall/winter project.

Well, I'm getting rain most of today, they say. I'm believing them because the air is so "wet" it settles on you. Can't see how it isn't droplets. 😵‍💫 Anyway, it's predicted 1+" slowly, all day. A good type of rain but....also probable for next 3 days of more. That coastal system languishing out there.

The goats will hang out in barns. I'll be in a store at work.😉

ETA...went out to feed & had to dump a good inch out of various feeders from last night. Puddles around the farm. Not complaint, just saying -- I'd share if I could. Easy raining right now.

Not to brag... but another morning with rain...


But we have a chance of snow...
I'll start digging out the winter stuff, it is coming.
Holding myself back from going an hour early to work, only a half hour early today. But I have meetings after.
Dreary weather means cozy productivity. Have a fantastic day y'all

The beginnings of one on the bottom of my heal. The top of the heal is also supposed to be rounded, it's more squared off. My calf muscle is overly tight, so that causes more pressure over my heal which causes inflammation. So, Voltaren gel, stretches and a gel insole. Dr thinks it should resolve in 5-6 weeks. Oh and I have to wear a boot at night. Hopefully this will take care of it.

I have seen people get ultrasound (therapeutic) for heel spurs.

Good morning all! Today we will be planting a bunch of different shrubs out in our treeline, mow the lawn and inspect the front 2 beehives. We will be leaving on Wednesday and be gone for 9 days. Looking forward to the break.

But first tea! 🫖☕🫙🍯

No chance of rain here for at least the next 15 days. High of 85 today, upper 80's low 90's for the next week. Then we drop down into the 70's. The weather will be cooler in Spokane, which is where we will be. We might also drive into Canada for a couple of days.

Have a beautiful day! 💗
