26 Good Days, Bad Days* Monday, November 26, 2012





I spent a few hours yesterday putting red stuff on the tree. Afterwards, perhaps because of my tired, shaky hands, I could never get a good, in focus, shot of the tree. Darn it. I’ll try again later.

G set up the tree, and he hung lights on two of the patios. It was too much for him. He never really moved after that…a truly bad day. I felt so sorry for him. This is a virus that just keeps on giving. He’s trying a half hour at the gym this morning….no more. We will see.






  • Keeping those on the east coast in my thoughts.

  • Himself: He says he is feeling better.

  • Herself: Pool, work at the store, shop for dinner.

  • Reading: Nothing at the moment, but I have a nook book awaiting.

  • Balance: A first day as pricer by myself. Calling for an appointment about my hand when I get home.




what a pretty tree! [MsNoSign] 11/26/2012 9:51:01 AM
I had the Shingles in Sept. For me, the tiredness lasted a good month. Its just a slow road to recovery. Wishing him well~ [MsNoSign] 11/26/2012 9:52:36 AM
Shingles is very debilitating it seems. [LightButHearty] 11/26/2012 9:58:20 AM
it is not just debilitation. it is true horror. i send you both my love. [oulin] 11/26/2012 10:04:19 AM
The way I put that sounded like I was minimizing the horribleness of shingles. Through Open Diary I have come to learn a lot more about the effects and the day to day reality of living with it. [LightButHearty] 11/26/2012 10:04:57 AM
Nice tree. [LightButHearty] 11/26/2012 10:05:25 AM
Pretty tree! You two take it easy, please. My insurance will pay for shingles vaccine, I don't even remember if I had chicken pox, but I isn't worth risking it! [BonnieRose] 11/26/2012 10:24:39 AM
You two need to take it easy you know. My husband sends his good wishes and says rest and enjoy the beauty of your labour on that tree. [TrilliumZen] 11/26/2012 10:59:53 AM
My brother has survived four types of cancer, diabetes, several strokes and heart disease but these damn shingles are about to get him down. I hope G feels better soon!

Love the tree and the dove? on top! [Tornado]

I've had two babies, been run over by a car, and had five surgeries and the shingles. If I had to relive one it would be any of them other than shingles (as long as I didn't have to keep the baby lol).

So sorry G is going thru so much with that nasty virus. The tree looks great. Glad you are going to get the hand looked at. [gel] 11/26/2012 2:55:46 PM
the tree looks lovely, and i especially love the bird on top.
Poor G...I do feel for him in his ongoing pain and frustrations at not being able to do what he wants to. Shingles is rough...I know several friends who have suffered with it....he needs to take care of himself a bit more ( pot calling the kettle black, I know... lol)

Tooooooo nice! [the_mysticalmuse] 11/27/2012 10:56:29 AM
Loved your blue tree last year and now the red one this year. Your artist's eye is evident in all you do. / Troubling to hear about G's bad day. [TickTockTickTock] 11/29/2012 9:49:30 PM
I love your trees -- they're always so perfectly 'dressed.' [Tehachap] 1/8/2013 8:12:43 PM
