Well, after about five days of some kind of allergy I am starting to feel somewhat human again. I would wake up in the morning and my eyes were just about glued shut and my nose was plugged up with dried blood and I could hardly breathe. Then once I was up I would develop a really nasty headache and my eyes would start to itch and water; then my nose would start to run and that would irritate my nose again and it would start bleeding and on and on and round and round we would go.
Well so much for all the pleasantries, yesterday was really nice out so I went outside and pruned the roses that I had not pruned in November because they still had buds on them and if we had not had the freeze and snow for a couple weeks they would have bloomed.
Once I had the roses pruned I started on my lace leaf Japanese Maple taking out all the dead wood and then reshaping it a little as it has started to get wider than I wanted it to be. By the time I finished with that I was getting tired but even though I was tired I still felt better than I had in a week or so.
I got a pretty good nights sleep especially when one considers that Monday morning I awoke at 0200, I did the same thing yesterday morning except I was able to get back to sleep again yesterday and Monday I could not.
Stan has finished the tile, and all that needs to be done to it is seal it. So since I have another doctors appointment tomorrow, it will be my third this month, we are having Stan not come tomorrow so the Kathleen and I can do some running around.
Today I made and appointment with a Rheumatologist to see about my joint pain. I am tired of trying to take drugs just to be able to function. My biggest problem with the drugs is that they also make me so groggy that I can hardly function and unless I take a lot more than I am suppose to I still have a lot of pain.
Well this is all I have energy for tonight, I am hoping that I will be feeling better and able to sit at my computer and write something on a little more regular basis again.

When do you see the rheumotalogist? Sometimes there is such a wait to see a specialist!
I can't believe you are out pruning in January!!
I see him on February third, I could have seen him sooner but I had other things on my calendar and he is out of the office for over a week.
Our temperature has been in the mid forties to mid fifties so it has been rather pleasant outside for an hour or so in the afternoon.
We have been having fog in the morning and it still starts getting dark early so the window is still pretty small when the weather is nice.
