Crazy Week

Dustin came home from Texas from his summer sales job for Vivint.  Door to door sales weren't so good this year, so he was really disappointed.  He was in an area that they depend on oil for jobs and oil field work is way down right now, so no one has any money.  Dust got home Monday afternoon, so I went and got his nice car out of the storage unit and got it all cleaned up and a full tank of gas for him.  Tuesday we went over to his storage unit and loaded all his stuff in two trips and hauled it to our garage where we went through everything and threw a bunch of stuff away and took a bunch of stuff to D.I.  I got things organized on the garage shelves that he is keeping and we loaded the back of Jayson's pickup clear to the top of the cab with his bed, dresser, little fridge and some clothes.  He has a small couch, dresser, and tv stand that I will try to sell for him and Jayson will try to sell his other car and dirt bike.  Jayson had a full load and on Wednesday morning he tied the load down and secured it and after checking on things at the shop he headed out with a engine on a trailer to deliver in Colorado and then on to Laramie, WY, where Dustin will attend school with my brother Steven.

What a crazy couple of days we have had and to top it all off I had another series of prolotherapy injections on Wednesday.  I had over 30 in both sides of my neck from the base of my skull down, around both shoulder blades, my left rotator cuff, left hip and 8 in my left ankle.  The doctor said my ankle has been broken and healed on it's own.  Five years ago I injured it when I fell jogging and I saw two specialist, had an MRI,  x-ray, wore a boot for 8 weeks, and had physical therapy.  They said there was nothing wrong with it.  It was swollen for 10 months and painful and since then I was jogging off and on and it would always hurt.  Since I have started the injections it is always swollen and painful again just like when I injured it and the doctor said he isn't sure this will help me.  The rest of my body hurt so bad the day of injections because they are extremely painful, but I feel so much better in all the areas except my ankle.  I will be hobbling around again for the next week.
