New bedroom

The house we bought 7 years ago is a nice one, but the bedrooms are tiny,so when we had the bathroom renovated we eliminated the storage room next to it with the plan to knock the walls down and make the bedroom on the other side of it larger. Well, with the help of our sons and an Amish man named Mose we are closer and closer to moving in to the room. The one we are in is just that A BED ROOM a ROOM FOR A BED...I often feel claustrophobic...this will be so much nicer!...yahoo for us.

Hubby has all kinds of things going on with him that are being checked on in the coming weeks...tumor on the pituitary gland, back problems, soooo a visit to a neurologist, an endocrinologist, and a chiropractor are happening in the next couple weeks. All of these visits are with the VA. He is 80% disabled due to the neuropathy in his arms that is due to being diabetic and he was in Viet Nam and exposed to agent orange so that is why he was found disabled. We are even getting a handicap sticker for our car now. So it goes, a daily reminder...married to a diabetic.

BUT and it is a BIG BUT, his attitude has been amazing lately now that his pain is better managed with a narcotic and nerve medicine...so yes! Life is a lot better lately for both of us because when he is mellow...life is good.

Hear me, sisters? Can I have an AMEN? Manage that pain and keep them upbeat and our lives are a whole lot better...tolerable...nice.
