It's Friday and I'm Celebrating The Small Things!
Celebrate
The Small Things is a weekly celebration where some bloggers have
decided to post about something worth celebrating...no matter how big
or small it is.This week I'm celebrating having my brother and his family over for the week. My little bro lives several states away, which equates to a 20 hour car ride, so we don't get to see each other too often. I'm loving having him here and visiting with my adorable niece and nephew...they are too cute!
Below is a pic of my son and my nephew watching tv together...they look the same :)
I'm also celebrating good medicine. My arthritis has been going crazy the past couple of weeks and so I've been taking my newest pain medicine, ConZip (extended release Tramadol), almost every day. It has really helped take the edge off.
Also celebrating my orthotics...I think they may be helping a bit and I'll take anything I can get!
My brother just reminded me...celebrating old school music that makes you dance in your car like a crazy person. We heard "The Humpty Dance" twice in three days! Woot! Special thanks to Sirius XM radio's 90's on 9!
What are you celebrating?

Glad your orthotics are helping, even just a bit! And yes, old school music is fantastic. Cause dancing's just more fun when you're rocking out to something like that, =) Enjoy your time with your brother!
ReplyDeleteEvery little bit of help counts! I had a great time with my brother...thanks for the comment!
DeleteGlad the medication and orthotics are helping. Have a lovely weekend with the family.
ReplyDeleteThank you Suzanne! Hope you have a great weekend as well!
DeleteGlad you're getting some relief. My younger brother lives several states away, too, and we only get to see him and his family once a year, so I know how that feels. Hope you have a wonderful visit and you're all dancing to the music!
ReplyDeleteWe had such a wonderful visit! It's hard seeing him so little, but I try to see him every year to 18 months...but that's just not enough!
DeleteWhat a great bunch of things to celebrate - I'm so happy that your medicine is working for you. Yay for family visits and dancing to those great old tunes!
ReplyDeleteI'm happy my meds are helping too! I really hate having to take medicine, but sometimes I realize that I just have to suck it up and do it...life is short and I need to enjoy it the best I can :)
DeleteWhat a cute picture of the boys! Great to hear your medicine and orthotics are helping with the arthritis. Hope you're having a great weekend. :-)
ReplyDeleteThank you Kirsten! My sister-in-law snapped the pic of the boys...so cute! We had such a great visit!
DeleteHey Katie, I'm glad you've found meds that are actually helping you and that you've been feeling better. :) As far as 'old school' music from the '90s, that makes me wanna cry, considering that old school for me is 70s and 80s (sigh). Hope you enjoy what's left of the weekend. Eva
ReplyDeleteI'm glad I found some meds to help too! A few years ago I heard Bon Jovi on the classic rock oldies station...I wanted to cry LOL
