I ask because sometimes when i'm on the bike my left leg does numb all the way down to my foot and I think it is stemming from siatica as well.
Busy week! But you are getting lots of sunshine hours :) :) :)
yea, i regularly experience it. it's good to massage it and also take the pain meds. it can also occur from more sitting (i think) as i have some tendencies to be extraordinarily sedentary lol.
i think it could help to massage it. it could be because you have something pressing on your nerve...i can't believe it's the reason for me because i never "hurt my back" or damaged disks that i know of...but for some reason, i get pain always and only on my right thigh/butt.

my eye healed. i get styes a lot, i touch my eyes too much and i'm prone. i had stopped using any eye drops or washing my eyes with baby shampoo (sometimes i do that when i feel i may face getting a stye)...i get them like 1x per year. annoying.
Safe travels on the way to the wake. Just a bit of friendly advice: remember to focus on your driving. Don't get swallowed up in your thoughts or feelings around this emotionally charged event, until you are NOT driving. (((hugs)))
luckily my dad drove and the ride was OK. :) very good tips. i appreciate it.

Subs like you had a very productive Saturday. Were you able to complete your test?
I love that you have a shoe repair shop. Ours went out of business several years ago.
i didn't even start the test, couldn't bring myself to do it. oh well! i still have today to do it :)
the repair shop def gets some business, he's been there a LONG time, an old guy! :)
PM Edit: just learned at noon that the superindentent, who helped to get me this job, has died, at 55, due to a sudden heart attack while he was driving last night. It is a big loss, his passing, to the world. For he was one of the few good guys left in this world. Somebody who is a great father, husband...and also the best asset and superintendent a company could have. He was liked and loved by everyone who knew him. He worked hard, played hard, had a larger waistline and he was losing weight, but, that is why health is so important - because if you do not take care of your health, your life can be taken away from you - your friends and family and loved ones, just like it did to him. My father knew him well, i knew him just under 10 years. it's a big loss for everyone who knew him.

And I'm sorry to see that you've canceled your stewardship activity and walk with your family, but yes, you MUST rest your legs if you are having difficulties. Kind of like, "Don't even THINK about it" until your legs are feeling 100% (or as close to 100% as they can get). So I really applaud your awareness of your limits - and well in advance, not at the very last minute.
...but the real reason i went to work is that I have more time on the weekend for studies and don't necessarily need today off anymore...it's like a compromise that i'll take one vaca day monday, and work today on this one.
at least here i'm paid for unused vacation. usually they only pay you for unused sick, so i guess it's a perk - if i really can spare vacation days (but that is within reason as vacation days are important days! LOL)
if i felt i needed this day off, i would have taken it, surely. :)
yeah, resting the legs...and realized that when i massage them with the rollers, it totally aids me feeling better....so i have to force myself to do this, and not just lay on the couch only...i have to massage the tightness out. it helps so much when i do!
yeah...thru the past experiences i have had, i do not want to hurt myself further...my lessons were learned...and that's why i cannot even think about exercising if i feel pain! yep, lessons i didn't know years ago!

i want to possibly join the NYS courts in the future. to work my way from a lower entry "court assistant" to a mid level "clerk." that's your answer.
i'm still taking advanced paralegal courses now, sporatically, they are shorter, 7 week courses that i take some sessions and skip on other sessions because if i have no days off from work, i'm not comfortable taking a class at that time..
biggggg mystery...write it later when i'm relaxed!
Tonight is my night for legs at home. I do a limited number of exercises, though. It's probably not what one would consider a real "Leg Day", as they refer to it in bodybuilding communities.
Waiting to see what's for lunch! :-) (I love a mystery, lol...)
enough about me.
btw, i meant to tell you, i add up calories throughout the day. as i eat i tally them. of course, i have general ideas of what i can eat from experience, too, but i always add them up as i go...and that is somewhat how i decide what i'm eating later in the day, based on my calories left, etc.
my legs day is short also. if doing it fast, it can last under 10min. just squat variations and toe raises. i figure i have my limits on how much exercise in relation to relaxing i can commit to!
i may upload a photo of my lunch that i ate today, tomorrow. i'm too tired to do it now! ha!
let's have a happy friday!

I really like how you've incorporated work goals in your diary. I mean, I know it's not diet-related, but it seems to me that it helps cope with the current situation/dynamics.
next, i was certainly busy...but i was able to sleep in and also when doing work i was on my comfortable futon and not a desk per se...with my legs up working at home. so sleeping in and doing work on a couch made yesterday worth it! and yes, it was mostly filled doing things, but nothing was rushed, so i was able to remain relaxed basically the whole day. a nice day off, not rushed, just efficiently busy!!!! :)
I get ebooks from the Brooklyn Library, many on hold for varying times. When I read a review of something interesting. I immediately check to see if I can add it to my hold list. They allow you to delay the hold if desired.
They have some very helpful support staff there. This one guy, think his name is Matt (LOL) was driving me nuts with endless efforts to help me when all was well. So I told him he sounded really hot and that I planned to visit the city & wanted to hook up. Predictably, he ceased and desisted. LOLLOLOLO
great story, enjoyed that.
yes, i see with the NYPL, i totally canceled the hold online. thankfully something works quickly..libraries are so behind the times!

luckily, after my boss pushed me to do things Monday which should have been done LATER and not added to documents that were already finalized, i finally got back to my planned work at work...
I HOPE that my boss will leave me to do my own work tomorrow, but since i was off today i can see him pushing things on me that he "planned out" today...hope not though!
busy days are great, indeed.
thank you for the advice and i totally agree, i must push to do my own work even sorta with my boss since he operates totally on doing whatever he wants at all the wrong times, it seems.
seems my position probably is somewhat similar to yours....with how you have to work with a group of people to get things done with a back and forth on project that's getting done!

Hope your tummy feels better. Could it be anxiety from having to deal with the boss again? Ugh...
i got stick in the AM doing more extra work that should have been done a long time ago...but then i was able to get into my work..not done with it, but, i got through a bit :) very happy!
...and i actually meant some of the "extra work" could have been put off into the future...
the owner gets something in his head that he wants done and it's the generally tendency to just go with him, but i see it delays like everything, but he's the owner!
my boss does whatever he wants, i see...i may have to try harder i guess to do that!
In my mind, if you have the ability to flex a little with your time and/or resources, it might make this work environment a lot more manageable and enjoyable. If Mr. Boss would accept that you may need to work a little more on Tuesday to get paper A done by Wednesday, you might be able to stress a little less about actually getting everything done.
next, i would love to do what is in the second paragraph, in my past job, there were times when there was some flex time...work late one day, leave early the next...i think that this company, they don't want that - but - i don't mind it at all - the flex, within reason! :)
you got it right, it's all about "the folders!!!"
enjoy your night as well!

Good luck with the BK reading & assignments!

the coconut milk was slightly more ounces and i just hope it sets and it doesn't need ot be thrown out....i'll keep everyone updated...it's needing a lot more time for cooking, but i think it'll be OK...next time, i'm doing slightly under the amoutn of liquid needed for the pumpkin pie! UGH!
