The Chiropractor.

I haven’t always been a fan but I have a sciatic nerve that knocks my right leg totally out of commission. Like pain up my lower right back and all the way down my leg can hardly walk out of commission.  I’ve learned over the years that the chiropractor is the only thing/person that can help. I’ve also heard lots of stories about other so called miracles (fixing my leg is nothing short of a miracle to me … LOL) the chiroprator can produce. So this week after going to the doctor and the ER (twice), having x-rays, blood work, CT scan, ultra sound and more, I went to the chiropractor for some relief of the pain in my pain that was radiating to my back.

It helped! Seems it was all because my sciatic nerve. I go again today and I’m hoping this will be the final visit for at least a year or until my leg goes out again.

So … how about you? Do you believe in/trust/go to a chiropractor? How do you feel about them?

We really do miss the Florida sky!

Here in Southern California it has been getting very warm. I consider it down right hot. While NY likes the heat … I don’t. At all. I don’t function well when I’m hot and I don’t feel well either. Never have. I might feel different if I lived on the beach or in the mountains on a lake. You know, with a nice cool breeze. But I don’t. So, I’m not looking forward to summer. I’m not looking forward to summer at all.

How about you? Do you like the heat of summer?

One of our darling nephews is getting married and we’re absolutely delighted to have his wedding reception at our home. I’ve been spending a lot of time looking for the perfect decorations. And I’ve been looking on Pinterest!

Isn’t this Front Door Wedding Decor fun and a bit of elegant?

But looking for wedding decor isn’t the only thing I do on Pinterest. I’m also a little bit crazy for fruit tarts. I think these Lemon-Blackberry Mini Tarts are to die for!

And Sailing Greece is on my bucket list.

I actually have Pinterest boards for my Bucket List, as well as Pies and Tarts, Party favors and decor along with 52 other boards.

How about you? Are you on Pinterest? Leave a link to your Pinterest page so I can follow you!!

Last night we stopped at Bed, Bath and Beyond to buy new cake pans to make a cake for our grandson’s 12th birthday. I turned quickly at the customer service counter and ripped a hole in the back of my jeans on a candy shelf. The sales associate apologized. I told her I was sorry too and that the cake was going to be more expensive now than I thought. I also said the faulty shelf corner should be fixed before another mishap might occur or a child or adult could be injured on it. The manager on duty was summmoned and he too apologized for the faulty rack but said it really was ‘out of the way.’ I was thinking he should tell that to my behind!

What do you think the responsibility of the store is? (Be honest … my feelings won’t be hurt.)

Happy Aloha Friday!!
