Neurologist - Social Security - Tomatoes
Hi,
I thought I would write more often, but this seems to be the pace.
I stopped going to our Older Persons Center (OPC) where I would work out on the rehab exercise machines. I was trying to see if I could get off Ambien and get my head to quit hurting all the time. It is so tiring. So far no luck. I went to a new neurologist last month who specializes in chronic head aches to see if there is another approach. She has me on Pamelor which is supposed to make you sleepy. Not me, just kinda excited, but very tired. Weird. But I have to build up the dose over a few months to see if there is improvement. It's some sort of antidepressant, but fortunately I don't need it for that. S'pposed to help with nerve pain and interupt the feedback look for pain. If not, then try something else.
Social security decided that I was disabled. I thought I would be glad to get that decision. But it created weird feeling. I know I am disabled, but I don't want other people telling me that. It seemed like a jail sentence. It was faster decision than I thought it would take, guess I am more messed up than I thought. Oh well, I keep telling myself I will still walk the Appalachian Trail, so maybe something will happen. So far I've only walked a few hundred yards on that point between Tennessee and North Carolina, pre-stroke.
It's time to get the garden started. Got some seeds planted indoors. Now I have to build a cover for my garden so that deer, rabbits, and ground hogs don't eat everything. This has been a constant battle. Hopefully I will get more of my vegs than I give to them this last year. Animals 100, John 0.
I saved some tomato seeds from an Heirloom a few years ago and decided this year to try them. They have started to grow. first step. Now to grow them and see what I got. I don't know what they are. In my haste back then I only labeled the envelope heirloom seeds. Duh, what one? Sometimes I get so frustrated with me. Why did I think I would remember the type? Oh well. If I can get them to grow and the deer don't eat the blooms like last year, I will find out if they are cherry or larger. I am hoping they are cherry. if so I know they are Ruby Pearls. So have been the best small cherry - grape sized I have ever eaten. So sweet. Others are good, but these are just a little better.
I'm always open to better ways to garden, so if you have tricks, I'm all ears. Thanks,
all for now, Have a Great Day everyone!
