Oct.25 2007 we left Dallas Valley Camp Ranch, to head south to Corpus Cristi Texas. We arrived Oct. 30.
Now a year later here we are Oct. 19 2008 leaving Dallas Valley Ranch Camp, only to find our truck will not come out of four wheel drive. We will stay over night with Wanda and get to the dealers in the morning.
I have been diagnosed with Arthritis of back and kness and legs. I do not know what kind . but with a little research it is hard to treat as my knees will degenerate until I need surgery and the pain will not go away until that happens . To my disappointment it may be many years before doctors operate they wait till one cannot walk. In other words I will gradually become immobile with nothing relieving the pain. I am on arthritis tylenol, plus tylenol3 that does very little. I am already feeling my right knee is trying to catch up with the left, as it does not want to be left out.
I have decided to take Replenix from Melaleucalucosamine HCI, Bomelain, ginger, and green tea, a joint replenishing Complex..

I am told by my Doctor I must not walk or exercise only do a bit of streatching. I am wondering what kind of streatching as at this moment I cannot walk, without a cane, at a snail pace with alot of pain. All my joints, and shoulder blades are very painful. even when sitting standing, worse when I lay down.


So any advise or suggestions I may consider.

My doctor has given me the green light to go south.I wonder if she thinks the warm weather will help me ? Hope so.

A great evening I had with a games night with some of my kids and grandchildren this evening . It was fun to watch them interact and laugh and play together.
We are leaving for Texas on October 20 and will arrive back into Canada about April 20. I am sure looking forward to to be in a warmer climate for winter.
I love my job at Bentsen Palm RV Park as Activity Director. It is the best job we have had. we get involved with the activities and playing along with the people of the park, with shuffle board ,crafts and games etc. We have planned many more activities this year, to try to get the men involved with different crafts, like rock and glass cutting, wood crafts, and any other things that may interest the men and ladies. how would you like a job like that, it is so much fun.
