    'fraid so. :(
    I have a little in my hands too...but NOTHING like poor MB has to deal with...so, I'm not complaining, was just commiserating with you. :laugh:
    I've had problems with my hands and back for years but the shoulder and hip thing is fairly new.
    I'm much too young to feel this way! :p

    I have arthritis in my hand but only the right one. Knots on the fingers so far but only the index and middle one. It's funny though that so far, only the right side is involved. Hand, shoulder, hip, knee and toes. I'm learning about foods that make it worse such as corn and sugar. I'm using turmeric shots and a diclofenac sodium topical gel and both help quite a bit. My doctor told me to add Tylenol Arthritis strength tabs to my regimen as well. Mine is nowhere to the point Rachel's is at.

    @LoriP1702 I decided to follow your advice...I went back and got another bottle. :D

    :thumbs:

    My toes hurt. :laugh:


    ...yes, I'm ready for this year to pass as well. :nun:
    However...I honestly don't think a thing will change despite the calendar flipping. :(

    Unfortunately, I have to agree with you on that. Maybe we'll be surprised and something wonderful will happen!

    Good morning lurkers:wub::wub::wub:

    Glad you are liking it here Chels!:wub: I'm with Dale, not enough info on that vape mail! Yep, we are a nosy bunch!:lol:

    Lori glad you got home safe!:):wub:

    Lynn glad you had a good day with Noah!:D:wub:

    MB it stinks you are working the whole weekend. :(:wub:

    Dale, I'm glad DH's tree only dented the house and that you are safe!!!:wub:

    Bruce got here with the grand girls about 1/2 hour before we closed last night. :) They walked around the hanging clothes and read DIL the totals on all the tickets so she could do inventory for taxes. They love being involved. :rolleyes:

    Went by Clay's and dropped off Yoda since I'm not allowed pets here, and left the pickup because there is so much foot traffic by the place I live and he doesn't want disappearing tools and such. Stopped and ate at McD's... a place I normally avoid but the girls were so excited to see one.:facepalm: Then went by the store so they could "find" something they wanted for breakfast this morning and some ice cream... each girl picked a different kind of muffin (total of 8), then Bruce found cherry fritters (5)... they won't starve but I'm not sure they can get them all eaten by Monday!:lol: The girls couldn't agree on ice cream so we have both mint chocolate and cherry something or another :eek: then when what to my wondering eyes should appear when unloading groceries but a bag of chocolates... basically, I'm thinking this weekend is going to be a bit of a sugar rush:shock:

    Think I'll go get a refill before this bunch starts to wake up and all semblance of quiet disappears!:confused: Did I mention they finished the apt downstairs... I came home the other evening and the lights were on... the only thing I know about my new neighbor is he doesn't come with any kind of volume control!:eek:

    I'm expecting more vape mail today, I'll post for sure!

    Just don't blame me if you're hungover tomorrow. :laugh:

    I need to cut sugar, I don't eat much corn/corn products, but I did notice a big difference last year when I cut out all sugar. :)

    Starting a two day detox routine today... wondering if I'll have to stay near a bathroom :unsure:
    Never tried one before :?: Sure is sour! :eek:
    Why pray tell? :unsure:
    Your body detoxes itself. It's called your elimination system. ;)

    Unless you mean the clean out before a colonoscopy...then, have fun with that and stay close to the bathroom. :lol:

    Greens and fiber should help that...
    But try it if you want to. :) Just not sure how much it will help in the long term.

    Lol! One bottle is only a wineglass and a half full. One bottle with dinner, one bottle at midnight. Hangover won't be an issue. :p
    Oh guess not then. Didn't realize the size of the bottles. :lol:

    So @JoeyC I'm guessing you've been to the ball drop in Times Square a time or two, no??

    ...anyone else been??

    I didn't want the full size bottles because of the proverbial hangover with finishing the bottle so when I found the small ones yesterday, I thought they were perfect.

    And I've never been to the ball drop on Times Square but wanted to when I was younger. Now..there's no way I'm I'd want to be around that many people. I'm content now to enjoy it from the comfort of my own living room. :)

    They drop an acorn in Raleigh at what they call the First Night celebration. It's around 40 miles away but tens of thousands of people is too many for me at this stage of life. Laura went last year and said she had fun but almost froze to death. It was in the lower 30's through most of the evening. :confused:
