[MissHoneychurch]

How are you today?

I was at the doc's office this morning. I have tendonitis on my left foot. Oh joy. That will take some time to heal x( I will also get orthotic inserts, made for just my feet. I had to do a 3D print of me feet. Didn't know they do it that way these days.
Of course my co-worker is on vacation these week and there are a bunch of book requests on my desk. Means I have to hobble to the stack to get them. And walking hurts at the moment.
OK, enough of the complaining.

Picture of the Day

[Eurobabe]

1. Oh noes, sore toes!!

:hug: :hug: do as little as you can. Take it easy. That's an order sweetie.

[MissHoneychurch]

2. Thank you

:hug:

I still have to work. No sick leave for me. :(

I will take it easy though. I have enough to do on my desk.

[Eurobabe]

5. So just sit and talk to me on FB

like we are doing now. :rofl:

[MissHoneychurch]

6. I started working a bit

:rofl:

[Robeson]

3. I'm sorry you have tendonitis. That is a true pain...

...but I do luvs me some MissHoneychurch!! :*

[MissHoneychurch]

4. ROBESON!!!!!!!!!

:hi: :hug: :loveya: :bounce: :woohoo: :pals:

Does it show I am happy to see you?? :D

How are you doing?

[Robeson]

7. I'm doing fine, though I've cut my hair...: (. I love seeing you, too!!...

...It makes me get an instant smile on my face whenever I see your name...:-) :loveya:

We've just got to get together sometime again, for old times sake... ;-)

[MissHoneychurch]

8. You cut your hair???

:wow:

You have to send me a pic of that :)

Yes, we have to get together again. We need to continue our conversation from when I was visiting you 2 years ago :)

[Robeson]

9. It's not too drastic. It's shoulder length, and I could probably...

...put it in a pony tail if I had to. It's just not as long...;-)

[MissHoneychurch]

10. In February

I cut my hair too. The back got a lot shorter. Looks good though :)

[Robeson]

11. You need to post a pic of your new hair style...

...I know you look great, as usual! :-)

[MissHoneychurch]

12. Doesn't really show the back

and I am not smiling, but I took it the day I got the hair cut.

[Robeson]

13. I like it. And I remember your smile so don't worry.. ; )....

...is that pic taken in your new home? I remember you said you are now a homeowner.

[MissHoneychurch]

14. Awww thank you

:hug:

Yes, it was taken in my new home. I am so happy about it. The Easter weekend we had gorgeous weather so I sat on my balcony enjoying the sun and the scenery. I just love it.

[Sky Masterson]

15. Awww your poor feet

Good Morning MissH.
I hope your feet heal swiftly.
I'm getting sick.My throat is itchy and my head is stopped up.:(
This will be my first cold this winter and it had to happen just as all this cold b.s. was about over

[MissHoneychurch]

16. Good morning Sky

:hi: :loveya: :hug:

it is just the left foot.

Sorry to hear that you are getting sick. Feel better soon. :hug:

[Sky Masterson]

17. Thanks MissH

:loveya: :hug: :hi: you are sweetheart :)

[MissHoneychurch]

18. You know what helps?

Drinking tea. You might wanna go to one of the tea parties and ask for some tea. :rofl:

[Sky Masterson]

19. Thats true.

I don't know how being Tea-bagged will help my throat. :P :silly: I am drinking tons of warm coffee though

[MissHoneychurch]

20. ...

:spray: :rofl:

Good thing I know by now what tea-bagging means :rofl:

Well, you could give your cold to other people ... that is if people show up at those events :shrug:

hot milk with honey.

[Sky Masterson]

21. ..

I just hope I'm the Tea-Bagger and not the Tea-Bagee :yoiks:
Besides I would need dinner and a movie first.
Oh and I need to be told I'm pretty.:crazy:
Hot Milk and Honey is a great Idea. :hug:

[MissHoneychurch]

22. .

Let's see.

What kind of dinner and what movie?
You are pretty and handsome :D

Did I miss something? :P

[Sky Masterson]

23. .

:spray: I would hope you are missing these

:yoiks:
I'll take greek and we can see a romantic comedy :D
You're pretty dang cute yourself MissH. :loveya:

[MissHoneychurch]

24. Last time I checked

yes :rofl:

[Sky Masterson]

25. :o)

YAY! :rofl:

[SalmonChantedEvening]

26. Good Morning MissHoneychurch!

:hi: :loveya: :pals:

Lots of healing vibes for your foot. :hug: :hug: :hug:

Take your time at work please. :worry:

Rainy again here today, which means only one thing: Classical music in the car radio if I have deliveries to make. :)

[MissHoneychurch]

27. Good morning SCE

:hi: :loveya: :hug:

Thank you. And no worries, I take it easy. Doing as much work at the desk as possible. :hug:

Which composer?

[SalmonChantedEvening]

28. Which ever they play

;)

There was a Bartok piece on yesterday, and something from Mozart. And a harp concerto, I forget who the composer is.

I'm not very well versed in Classical music as far as knowing much of it by heart, which has it's benefits. Most of it is music I'm hearing for the first time. :D

[MissHoneychurch]

30. I know what you mean

I barely can recognize composers myself. Mozart yes, I hear if it is by him. But otherwise ... :shrug:

My favorite piece is "My Vlast" by Smetana. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LlLPLO90fSk and the opera "Carmen" by Georges Bizet.

[SalmonChantedEvening]

34. Same here with Mozart

His sound has a signature to it.

I think Ode to Joy by Beethoven has to be if not my favorite, one of several that occupy a top five.

The Four Seasons by Vivaldi, basically anything that has soaring strings in it.

In a steady rain, it's perfect. :)

[MissHoneychurch]

35. Those two are great pieces

I especially like the sung part at the end of "Ode an die Freude".

Freude schöne Götterfunken
Tochter aus Elysium
Wir betreten feuertrunken
Himmlische, Dein Heiligtum.

Do you know "Carmina Burana" by Carl Orff?

[SalmonChantedEvening]

36. Can't say I do

And until my lazy self buys speakers....

:blush:

omg I just sang that. Be glad you weren't here. The dog threw vegetables at me. ;)

[MissHoneychurch]

37. Here is Carmina Burana

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QEllLECo4OM

It is just a fantastic piece of music.

LOL .... next time post a youtube video when you sing :P

[SalmonChantedEvening]

42. Dogs baying across the planet.

YAY! An evil plan!! :rofl:

Time to start the car and get the day going.

Thank you for a wonderful start to mine. :hug: :loveya: :)

[Callalily]

29. Good morning MissH!

Sorry to hear about your foot, but glad to hear that you are on the road to recovery. The orthotics will help a lot, you will be pleasantly surprised.

I finally went to the doc about my knee and found out I have osteoarthritis. I'm far too young for that, but oh well. Thank gawd though I don't need surgery. I'm getting a series of five shots in my knee, and had the first one yesterday. Some lube stuff called suparatz. My knee if feeling better already.

Nice to see your pic again. The last time I saw it I didn't notice all those beer bottles on the floor! You must have been celebrating your new haircut. :rofl:

:hi: :loveya: :hug:

[MissHoneychurch]

31. Good morning Callalily

:hi: :loveya: :hug:

Starting tomorrow I will wear sneakers to work. Good thing the weather will be a bit worse :rofl: I'm only getting the orthotics in 10 days or so.

Sorry to hear about your knee. Good thing that you finally went to see the doc. And glad that the shots will help.


Those beer bottles were left overs from the move and renovating. My mom's bf had a bottle each evening after a long day of working. I prefer wine over beer :D

[Callalily]

38. Sneakers to work!

They should go lovely with your work suits. ;) But sneakers should help your foot until your get your orthotics. Do anything to make yourself feel better. Too bad you're short staffed and have to do all that running around yourself.

Ahem . . . good explanation of the beer bottles. :rofl:

[MissHoneychurch]

39. Since I wear jeans

most of the times at work, the sneakers are no problem.

I try not to run around too much. But I have to go to the stack in a bit to get some books. The rest has to wait till next week, when my co-worker is back.

It is the truth about the beer bottles :cry:

[Callalily]

40. Oh good Lord!

You get to wear jeans to work? How lucky. I wore jeans one day in winter. Big snow storm going on so I thought it would be okay. Got called on it and was reminded of the dress code. Mine you, NO ONE and I mean NO ONE would have come into the offices that day, the weather was far too nasty for traveling. *sigh*

:hug: I was just teasing you about the beer bottles. I know that you prefer wine!

Wow! They will let you leave work for your co-worker? Sheesh . . . and that's great!

[MissHoneychurch]

44. Yep, no dress code here

otherwise I would have to spend a lot of money on clothes. Guess, the one nasty person came in :eyes:

Well, preferable I wouldn't want to leave work for my co-worker. I will see if I am able to get the books tomorrow and Friday. One lady in another department wants a LOT of books.

[Callalily]

55. Well, our dress code

is ridiculous because it seems to only apply to some people, or so it seems. Oh well . . .

Maybe someone can help you transport the books. You should limit your walking as much as you can and I'm sure the other departments will be understanding.

Gotta head out for work so wishing you a great day.

:hug:

[AirmensMom]

46. Good morning, MissLily!

:hi: :loveya: :hug:

I can't type this morning ... tried 3 times before it came out legibly ("Godo mornign"). My fingers seem to be dyslexic today.

Yikes! Osteoarthritis? That sucks. I'm glad your knee feels better. I'll have to run that stuff past my doc. Knee pain is no fun. :hug:

Anyway, just wanted to say hi! :hi:

[Callalily]

48. Good morning AirmensMom!

Good to see you and thanks for the howdy!

Dyslexic fingers? I can totally relate. That is why god invented spell check. ;)

I just realized it's Wednesday! Sheesh this week is going fast. Don't know if that's good or bad.

:hi: :loveya: :hug:

[AirmensMom]

51. Hey, we didn't miss each other!

:bounce:

Sometimes my fingers can fool spell check into not having a clue what I was trying to type. :rofl:

Yep, it's FLYING by! And I have so much to do. Not enough hours or energy in a day.

:hi: :hug:

[Callalily]

59. You are ALWAYS busy! ;)

But I think it would be more fun to be busy at home with home projects than at work. ;)

And speaking of work, gotta head out, so wishing you a great day.

:hug:

[AirmensMom]

70. True.

I'm still waiting for that relaxed life-style we read about before we came here. :shrug:

Have a great day! :hug:

[malta blue]

32. Good morning!

~~~vibes~~~ for your foot. Ouch!!!

I spent two hours sleeping in the sun yesterday. I could not resist! Even though it was only in the 50s, it felt so good to have the sunshine... :D

I am headed to work soon :( but am so glad it's a short week. And my boss doesn't come back from vacation until Friday. She is at Disney. Yesterday I saw they were getting lots of rain and I smiled. I think this completes the selection of my spot in hell :rofl:

[MissHoneychurch]

33. Good morning malta

:hi: :loveya: :hug:

Thanks for the vibes. :hug:

LOL ... I will join you in hell :D Good to hear that you have a peaceful week at work.

[AirmensMom]

41. Good morning, MissHC!

:hi: :loveya: :hug:

Sounds like you need an extra hug! :hug:

I'm sorry your foot hurts. Didn't they give you any pain meds? Of course, then you'd probably want to go to sleep. :shrug:

I'm good, thanks. Let's see ... pet sitter came over yesterday for a dry run. I like him. I hope I'm not wrong. Andrew changed his name to Boomerang. :rofl:

Oh, yes, and we stayed up late watching Pride and Prejudice. We had just watched Emma on OnDemand last week and harleydad wanted to see another one. We were only going to watch the first DVD and then save the other one for another night, but we got too engrossed and didn't get done till midnight. So we had to sleep fast in order to get done in time for morning. :D

Going out for a hair cut this morning and then to the dentist this afternoon.

Have I forgotten anything?

[MissHoneychurch]

43. Good morning AirmensMom

:hi: :loveya: :hug:

Doc told me to take Ibuprofen.

How did the kitties like the pet sitter? :)

Ah yes .... *sigh* .... it is such a romantic book and movie. I had so much joy when we watched it last year on an afternoon.

You forgot to say hello to me from Simon :P

[AirmensMom]

45. Does it work?

I hate that you're in pain. :hug:

The kitties love the pet sitter. Serengeti tried to crawl into his jacket, as he does whenever we sit down on the glider. :rofl: The doggies love him, too. That's all good! :bounce:

Yes, it was a rainy nasty day. Perfect for an afternoon of romantic movies. I'm surprised that harleydad likes them so much. He's reading the book, Emma, right now. We have a collection.

Oh yeah, I did forget. Simon says hello. He says he doesn't understand why I wanted to let him in the bedroom door yesterday. Everyone knows bedrooms are for sleeping. Laundry room doors are for going in and out of. He's a bit silly that way. :shrug:

[MissHoneychurch]

47. A little bit

I will see tonight how bad it is. Yesterday evening my foot was hurting a lot. I need to try not to walk around too much.

I know you have a collection. You bought it when I was there :rofl:

LOL .... he is a kitty that wants its orderly ways. How can you change the routine? :P

[AirmensMom]

49. Rest is key.

Did the doc tell you that? :hug:

We did? I forgot when we bought it. I do remember that we bought a bunch of movies while you were here! :rofl:

Can't. But he has been wandering in later than the others lately. He must have found a new girlfriend or something. But I usually find him just outside the bedroom and then he won't come in that door. He did once and then realized his mistake and got all ruffled up and crouched down low. Once I opened the door to the hallway, he dashed out the door. He seems to not recognize the bedroom during the day, but he's all full of purrs at night. :rofl:

[MissHoneychurch]

50. Nope, didn't say anything about that

told me to stretch my lower leg when I climb stairs. Also told me to put a certain cream on my foot over night that helps heal it too.

If I remember correctly harleydad wanted to read the Austen novels after we watched the movie. Good reads for sure.
You bought movies, I bought books :rofl:

[AirmensMom]

52. Interesting!

But if it hurts when you use it, make sure you rest. :hug:

Yeah, that sounds right. Maybe I'll take them with me to read by the pool.

True! I do better with movies these days. I just haven't had enough time to read in chunks close enough to each other so that I don't forget what I've already read. :shrug:

[MissHoneychurch]

53. I am and will

thanks for your concern :hug:

I know you keep complaining that I made you buy so many movies. But I think the collection was pretty good. :D

[AirmensMom]

57. ...

:hug: OK, I'll shut up about it now. :D

I LOVE the collection. BTW, I got the Bridget Jones sequel. Funny! :rofl:

Sorry if my replies are delayed. I'm working on pet rules for the pet sitter while I'm chatting.

[MissHoneychurch]

61. No problem

I am working here too *ahem*

What will be the rules?

[AirmensMom]

62. Oh yeah ...

I forgot. :D


Feeding rules, who can go out, etc. And pics of them all so he knows who's who. He can identify the Abys at this point, but isn't sure about the others.

[MissHoneychurch]

63. He will remember soon

You could use your calendar for that :)

Or are you shooting new pics with you new toy? Then I want those pics too :)

Tell him the one that behaves like a dog is Miss Sophie :rofl:

[AirmensMom]

67. I could,

but then I'd have to write on it.

I haven't really shot any pics with it yet. I have been SO busy! Not sure if I'll get done with everything.

He has met Miss Sophie and heard the whole story about how no one ever pets her. And he believes it. :rofl:

[AirmensMom]

71. Lost track of time ...

Gotta run. :hi: :loveya: :hug:

[MissHoneychurch]

72. Alright

have a great day!

:loveya: :hug: :hi:

[blueraven95]

56. Good Morning, AirmensMom!

I love Pride and Prejudice! (But I think my favorite is Sense and Sensibility, even if Colin Firth isn't in it.)


How are you? How's C doing?

[blueraven95]

54. Good Afternoon, MissH!

I'm sorry that your feet are still bothering you. It doesn't seem fair x(



I'm good today. My cat got it into his head that he should start meowing at me to get up at 5:00am, so I'm ready to find him a new home (:D), but otherwise, things are good.

[MissHoneychurch]

58. Good morning blueraven

:hi: :loveya: :hug:

It sure sucks that I keep having problems with my feet. But that also will passs. Thanks for your concern :hug:

Ohhh .... I remember that. My late cat would do that too and demand food. If you tried to ignore her she would start throwing stuff down. At one point we found out that she demanded food from me at 5am and then two hours later when my mom got up she demanded food from her too ... sneaky kitty :rofl:

[blueraven95]

60. yep, sounds like my guy

he has food to eat (it's available all the time, since mine don't overeat) but he wants me up to play with him. Stupid thing has the sniffles coming back and he still wants to run around like a maniac. :rofl:

[MissHoneychurch]

64. But we love them

no matter what they do :rofl:

Another - more serious - topic. Did you hear about the Demjanjuk case?

[blueraven95]

66. no, what is it?

should I have?

[MissHoneychurch]

68. I started a thread in GD

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=389&topic_id=5458534&mesg_id=5458534

He is a guy who was a guard in an extermination camp and is supposed to be handed over to Germany for a trial. He and his family fight the deportation with hands and feet.

Here is the Wikipedia entry about him
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Demjanjuk

[blueraven95]

73. I commented

those sorts of stories make me so mad.

[MissHoneychurch]

74. Thank you

I don't know how much this topic is in the news in the U.S. I think it should be.

[blueraven95]

80. It's the first I've heard about it.

:shrug:

Our news is sometimes awful.

[MissHoneychurch]

82. Sometimes?

I remember when I was in the U.S. that the news was all about the U.S. and only 5 seconds were devoted for the rest of the world.

[blueraven95]

87. yep.

and the "US" news is really just local news. It's annoying.


I cross-posted your thread in the Jewish forum, hope you don't mind.

[MissHoneychurch]

88. Not at all

it needs some attention.

[blueraven95]

89. good

although I don't know how much attention it will get...that forum is fairly quiet.

[MissHoneychurch]

90. It starts to get some attention in GD

I am not sure how I should read the last entry about the Israelis.

[blueraven95]

92. no problem.

I answered him.

[MissHoneychurch]

94. I did too

he argues with Wiki, I do too :D

[blueraven95]

96. yeah.

it's a little silly. The issue isn't with Israel, it's between the guy, the US government, and the German government.

And that trial in Israel was 30 years ago - new evidence could have easily come to light.

[MissHoneychurch]

101. And it says in the Wiki article

that new evidence came up.

[blueraven95]

105. guy just has issues

basically anytime anything that even remotely remarks on Israel or the Jews has things like that come up. :shrug:

[MissHoneychurch]

107. Gosh

Israelis aren't saints. I think one needs to differ between Jews and Israel.

[blueraven95]

109. yeah

and they should remember that Israelis, because of their past, tend to be rather conservative when picking government leaders (even when it isn't the smart choice.

The problem is pretty common - the inability to distinguish between Israelis, the Israeli government, and Jews.

[MissHoneychurch]

113. It is like

saying that all Americans are like Bush and Cheney.

Time for me to go home. Have a great afternoon and evening :hi:

[blueraven95]

116. exactly.

have a great evening! :hi:

[Blue_Tires]

65. hope your foot feels better

and wherever that photo was taken, i hope that city invests in some cleaner diesels...

[MissHoneychurch]

69. Good morning Blue_Tires

:hi: :hug:

The picture was taken in Paris, France.

How are you today?

[blueknight]

75. morning ms honey

:hi: my b rother cuts hair for a living and is on his feet 12 hours a day. he has been wearing those inserts for years. told me he couldnt work without them. said they help him tremendously. hope you get some relief from the pain. i guess the best thing a person can do is rest it. but we cant always do that, can we?:shrug:

[MissHoneychurch]

81. Good morning blueknight

:hi: :hug:

I would love to rest, but I have to work. Good thing my work is mainly done sitting. My back would hurt badly if I had to stay for 12 hours daily. I can't do that.

[Blue_Tires]

78. fine, for the most part...

i hurt my back over the weekend, but luckily i don't think it was serious...

I also saw Ein. Frankfurt on TV this weekend against Bayern...tough break....

[MissHoneychurch]

83. Ouch

back pain is nasty. How did you do that?

Eintracht Frankfurt sucks. Amazingly that they can keep themselves in the first Bundesliga.

[Blue_Tires]

100. I was moving some furniture around for my mother

she had a club meeting last weekend...

[MissHoneychurch]

102. A good son

:)

Be careful when you move it back.

[Tuesday Afternoon]

76. Good Morning MissHc

:loveya: :hug: :hi:

Why are you having all this trouble with your feet and toes?

That is a lovely photo :)

[MissHoneychurch]

84. Good morning Tuesday

:hi: :loveya: :hug:

No idea whatsoever. I wouldn't mind NOT having those troubles.


Thank you. I took it in Paris, France.

[bigwillq]

77. Morning!

Hope your feet feel better. :hi:

[MissHoneychurch]

85. Good morning

thank you!!! With the painkiller I took and sitting at my desk, it is a bit better. But it will take its time to heal.

How are you doing? :hi:

[Haole Girl]

79. Oh no!

Hope your left foot gets better soon! :hug:

[MissHoneychurch]

86. Good morning

:hi: :loveya: :hug:

Thank you. With all the vibes and concern it already feels better :hug:

How are things with you?

[Haole Girl]

91. I'm better, thanks

Think I've finally gotten rid of the terrible cold I had last week (it was awful). So now I'll be able to handle the other. :hi: :loveya:

[MissHoneychurch]

93. That is good to hear

:hug:

Make sure you don't get sick again.

:loveya:

[seaker]

95. Good morning to you too

So sorry to learn of your sore tootsies..Hope you will be able to keep your feet up.

[MissHoneychurch]

97. Good morning seaker

thank you :hug:

Once I get home I won't do much but sit on my couch with my foot up on a cushion. It is a great excuse for being a couch potato.

[Brewman_Jax]

98. G'day, MissH

:hi: :hug:

Oh, noes! UR injured!

How did you get tendonitis? Skiing? Motorcycle racing? Mountain climbing? Cross-country hiking? Marathon running? Football? Inquiring minds want to know! :P

[MissHoneychurch]

99. Good morning Brewman

:hi: :loveya: :hug:

Very easy. Switching from my winter boots with not much of a heel to my spring shoes with a tid bit more of a heel .... my foot didn't like it this year.

[Brewman_Jax]

103. Shoes?

I like the marathon hiking story better. :P

The next brew has started--pulque, fermented agave nectar. :9

[MissHoneychurch]

104. Sorry

I am not much of a sport's person. I am just a woman who wants to wear nice shoes ... next weeks I will wear sneakers though x(

Ohhh ... that sounds yummy.

[Brewman_Jax]

106. Should be brew

in about 2 months, I hope. This is another original brew recipe.

[MissHoneychurch]

108. Where do you get your recipes from?

[Brewman_Jax]

110. Lots of researching online

I do a LOT of reading about old past drinks. Pulque is an old mesoamerican drink, more like wine. Agave nectar is the basis of tequila.

My health food store had large 5 Kg jugs of agave nectar, so I look online to see if was made into wine, and it was.

[MissHoneychurch]

111. That is so cool

and quickly became a hobby for you beside soccer and ren festivals :D It fits with the ren festival theme. Did you take some of your brews to your co-actors?

[Brewman_Jax]

112. Yes

A few of us are beer snobs, and we talk about GOOD beer, like the microbrews and imports. :beer:

[MissHoneychurch]

114. Microbrews are great

I also like a Guinness every now and then :)

Time for me to go home. Have a great afternoon and evening :hi:

[Brewman_Jax]

115. Have fun!

:hi: :hug: and rest the foot.

[Richard Steele]

117. Good Morning, MHC!

:hi:

Sorry to hear about your feet. I hope they feel better soon.
