You can even tell through my sleep pants how big my knee is because of the gout, my right foot is swelling again. They are not hurting just swelling. My knee is stiff in the morning though. Tomorrow my MIL will be 70! Taking her to lunch.

I got my letter from Social Security today! They are paying me back pay from April! I know God was in this for sure as I never had any trouble with getting approved! I didn't have to even talk to my representative. I did call them when I got back from Charleston in June and told then to add the doctor to my profile and that's when it was put through. I will get my first check in September which is actually for this month. Do not know for sure when I will get back pay. I sure do feel relieved!
Now the notes on Les. He had hearing tests and has lost about 25% of his hearing and needs 2 hearing aids. Now anyone that knows him will understand my concern to pay $1600 for something he will misplace! I KNOW we will be getting insurance for these! Insurance doesn't pay for them. Also he has a mole in his eye! He had to be sent from office to Hospital to check it out! Thank goodness we have excellent vision insurance! That was $2200. of which $60 was out of pocket and that includes his glasses!

I didn't think I would have to start playing Barbies THIS SOON, LOL! Charli has had a couple that she would play with a little in her toys but she found some clothes I had in a box and that did it. I pulled out Gina's dollhouse and the clothes from Gina and Jordon so now Meme has to dress the dolls! But it makes her very happy so....
I saw on the news about solar storms that are happening now. I asked Jeremy if they were supposed to see them but he didn't know bout it. He said they have a cloud cover. I hope he can!

YAY! I have to take 6 more months of the chemo which is not good But when I texted Jeremy to tell him he responded and said I was in his prayers and I got a letter telling me to set my password for my Disability! I didn't get a letter yet with details but I know I am getting it from the site!
Les told me if I took a picture and scrapped it he would throw away his shoes. It has been so hot he burns his feet when he wears them, LOL! He has always had trouble getting rid of holey jeans and shoes, they are a way to defy authority. He seemed to love to wear them around his Dad and Granddaddy! He still brings up a pair of pink and yellow swim trunks he had, he thinks one of us threw them away after the kitchen burned, I do not know what happened to them, honestly, just get tired of hearing about it!
That brings up Jeremy is not texting or communicating with me. He sent me a 9 page letter on how his right wing political views are Biblical and my Conservative views are not Christian. That was not the thing to hit me with! I prayed about it and answered his letter with scripture and love. I told him he was not using his scripture in context and that I loved him no matter what his political beliefs and that I was a Christian because I believed Christ died to set me free not for who I voted for! He has not responded. That shows he is from my family for sure! I admit I have a 'cool down period" when I get mad but I then say to mayself, "this is stupid forgive and forget!" Not my family! I remember weeks without my parents talking. There is not a lot of forgiveness, even if they get bad service at a business instead of seeing it as the waitress or a bad day they don't go back. I admit I do not like K-Mart and avoid there. I used to work at Wal-Mart and when I entered they made security calls and followed me around. I avoid them to this day but I do like the children's clothes there. Now I do not go shopping any where a lot. Waiting to hear from Disability, LOL!
I hope he comes around soon! At least I can talk to Julie. His Birthday is in 3 weeks and I am making him a special gift so I will be devistated if he doesn't get over it and like my gift!
Les is out cutting grass! He is mad at my brother so he is doing it even though his back is killing him. I am hoping he will finish painting the hall he started 4 weeks ago today. He says he doesn't want to ask Jeff for a brush... I guess he needs a little forgiveness, too, LOL!
Well, off to the doctor to have a chest x-ray and to work a few minutes!
