Nothin'

Yeah so I got nothin'. The kidney stone has quieted down and hasn't bothered me for a whole day and a half. My daughter and I worked on cleaning out the garage yesterday, today the garbage guys took away about 10 bags of garbage, a slew of empty boxes and the junk guy scored an old exercise bike and computer. Last week we put out a comparable amount and we still aren't done.

Not my favorite activity. I'm trying to convince Dani that there aren't
only 2 choices. She thinks it should either be - garbage, or garage sale. She doesn't think we should keep any of the stuff that's stored in the garage. She wanted to get rid of my turkey platter! I mean - I know it only gets used once a year, maybe, but I'm not getting rid of it.

I did part with 2 vacuum cleaners last week, there was a TV out there and next week it will probably be an old computer monitor as well as whatever we bag. Ye
s, we have junk. But we also gave about 5 full bags of clothes to the YWCA and will probably give them just as much again if not more.

I still have an old seat from a horse drawn fire truck from .. uh .. whenever fire trucks were pulled by horses. Have no idea what to do with it - I figure someone out there would be interested in it. My old jeans from the 80's, not so much.


Had a nice 4 day weekend and spent 2 days nursing the kidney stone, 1 day doing nothing and 1 day being relatively productive. Not a good average. And now tomorrow I go back to work and I hardly got anything done around here. At least - relatively speaking.

Yeah, like I said - I got nothin'. I guess that's not so bad when you consider how much time any of us really gets to do nothin'.

  1. That does not sound very much fun. I know that kidney stones are really painful. I hope that you will be able to pass it and get it out of your system soon.

    Thanks for the support too, I appreciate it!

  5. It may not have been a fun week but hey, you threw out a bunch of unwanted stuff including a kidney stone. You did accomplish something!

  6. I'm not sure I passed the stone, it could be nestling quietly - waiting to scrape a jagged path down my ureter next time I have a nice day or 2 off work! :)

  7. Well at least you did SOMETHING!!! I on the other hand never seem to do much around here at all!

    Just thinking about that FIre Truck seat thingy-my-jiggy - is there a museum aor something that might take it? Ask at the local fire station. At least they would appreciate the history of it :)

    So glad you are feeling better :)
    Have a fantabulous day!!!

    Hellllo, we have herbal formulas that actually dissolve kidney stones.

    They are people formulas I use on dogs and they work like a charm. If it keeps acting up, think about it.

    i know you never been an herb person, but they work!

    Sounds like your having a heck of a time.
