I went  to my doctor Friday morning for a recheck on my ribs.  At that time I wasn`t feeling too awful sore, but today I hurt more than I have, even when it first happened.  The doc said that the emergency room phys. asst. sent me back to work too early and gave me a note to take to work that said I am required to work mornings only for all this week.  I am best in the morning after resting all night but I really hurt in the afternoon.  She wants me to take a 30 minute walk in the afternoon because I`m not going to Curves right now.  So, my neighbor is all set to start walking with me tomorrow.  The emergency room phys. asst. also said I could go back to Curves tomorrow.  My doc said "absolutly not!  You have 2 non-moveable fractures and need to heal.  It will take around 6 weeks, then you can go back to Curves".

   I told her I was no longer taking any big honkin` size pills, that includes my vitamin, calcuim and the glucosamine chondroitin.  She gave me some suggestions like putting them in applesauce or pudding or butter, but I won`t do it.  I am not ever going through that again.  So, we went shopping yesterday and found chewable Centrum 50+ vitamins, calcuim and glucosamine chondroinin.  Now I am all set.  I have limited mobility in my left shoulder because I stopped taking the glucosamine and haven`t been going to Curves.  I can`t wait till it kicks in and it dosen`t hurt to put my coat on or brush my hair or take a shower or.....

   We had a bunch of company today, that was nice, now I`m settling in for the night after a picture perfect beautiful fall day.  Hubby is snoozing in his recliner next to me.  All is well.
