4th of July

Our firend, Coreyanne, is hosting a 4th of July picnic and watching the fireworks on Ford Island. Michael and I offered our bbq and I told Michael I would help cook the hamburgers and hot dogs. However, I have been laid up since Monday with muscle spasms in my back. Darndest thing. The drugs help and with their help and the little bit if stretching I've been able to figure out, it does seem to be getting better but I'm alreay taking two pain pills every four hours or so (the doctor prescribed 1 every 6 hours, which wasn't nearly enough). I don't think he understands the incapacity of the problem . So I'm going to run out of meds way before Monday. I don't want to miss anymore work than necessary so I'll have to get another prescription from him. He gave me 30 to begin with (Tuesday p.m.) and I only have four left. It could be it is at the point where the ibuprofen will work okay.

Anyway, Michael will be going to Coreyanne's by himself this afternoon. Liz and Cain (our friends that use our car during the week) still have the car because I cannot get in/out of the car anyway and they are taking him to the grocery store and then dropping him off at Coreyanne's.

I'm waiting for them to get back from the store because they are getting me a kalbi plate lunch while Michael is shopping and then he will bring the bunny food back to put in the fridge and then take him to Coreyanne's.

When I made the last post I got an email letting me know about it. Are you getting the emails too, letting you know there is a post?

It has been really quiet around here. I really expected more neighborhood fireworks. Of course people aren't supposed to use them in the complex, but last year they were all over the place, but I haven't heard ANY so far...amazing.

Well, I guess that's all that is new for now. Talk to you later.

Love,
Mom
