Morning everyone!! Happy thursday.
It is another gorgeous day here, May started off with summer weather finally. It is 70 degrees already. I am headed outside now to sit on the deck to read and enjoy the weather.

My physiotherapy was a good experience but the exercises are so simple but so difficult for me. Crazy. All I have to do is move my feet and ankles in 6 different ways just slightly and its excruitiating trying to make them move. But its necessary as I have to get the circulation going.

Have a great day everyone. Tammy we need more smilies, I know how to add them, its easy but it is time consuming I know.

Here is a sleeping smilie for Char.

Great news about the wheelchair, Zoe!

I was so bleary-eyed and in the weird sort of land that one discovers in the small hours, that I didn't even notice your post with the good news!

Do you feel a great sense of freedom?

I can't figure out how to add any smilies. Its not the same as madmoose because there are no other smilies installed other than the ones that we have, and I must be doing something wrong because whenever i try to upload a smilie from my computer, it does not add in. I'll keep trying to work on it.

Peace,
tammy

I just came out on my deck to sit and enjoy the day. Right beside the patio table where I sit is a step ladder. My husband hasnt moved it yet as we haven't been using the deck. What do I find but a big bird nest all completed on top of the ladder, there is straw and grass and mud in it and all over the deck. I can't move the laser myself so have to wait until John wakes up to remove it. I am nervous a bird is going to swoop at me now, the dog is here so that may keep them away. I think it is a robins nest.
Poor things going to so much trouble and we have to destroy it. At least there are no eggs in it yet.

@ Chariklo, The power wheelchair gives me a lot more freedom as it fits into more places and is much more maneuverable than my scooter or my manual wheelchair. I couldnt get into public washrooms with the scooter as it doesn't turn well and is too big. It really speaks out to me just how bad my mobility situation is now though.
I just finished my 5 exercises now and I am exhausted. I have to do it again this aft It made me feel sick to my stomach and the tears rolled down my cheeks it was so difficult to do. Really a huge challenge for me. The hardest one to do and I can only move my foot an inch is sit on a chair with my feet on the floor. I must slide my foot backwards slowly and then forward. Sounds really easy and is with my left foot. It takes all my effort and strength to move my right foot backwards even an inch. It's so upsetting.

Ok I am recovering now, thanks for listening everyone.

@Tec re the smilies.

It seems it might be the same format as the new BB3 I have. I had trouble figuring it at first too but it was because the page was so wide that the box to check add smilie was off the screen. I had to change the zoom to see it.

Do you have under your admin area a topic for posting, then smilies then it should say at the bottom of the smilie area under where the ones you have already add multiple smilies. Click on that, Then you will see a list of extra smilies come up and you need to type in the box beside each smilie offered the name of the smilie like this :smile6: (you must use the :: in front and end of the word. Then in the next box type the name you want to call the smilie with no ::. make sure to name it a bit different like adding a number if it's a word like smile because every time someone types smile the smilie will appear instead of the word. Then check the box at the end of the column to indicate you want that smilie to be added. Once you have added what smilies you want go to the bottom of the page and click submit. You can go back and add more of them that are offered as you have time.

I don't have any extra smilies on this board. I did do all the things that you said, and i know madmoose had more smilies you can add... but this board doesn't. You have to install a smilies pak first. Now I figures out how to do that, but the pak did not take... as you can see with all those blank squares under the smilies, lol. It is supposed to be compatible but it did not work. So back to the drawing board.

Peace,
tammy

I sent the problem to the help at forumatic to see if they can do anything to help. Just gonna have to wait until they get back to me. La sigh.

peace,
tammy

Yes Tec, tec support will certainly help you with that. They should install the Pac for you so you can add them. I know my support guy did it for me

Well, if it works... its like 400 smilies


Peace,
tammy

Yes there are tons of smilies available, but you don't have to add them all lol, I think Jackie. Did though heehee

Good morning everyone and...

Good morning to you dear Zoe...
So sorry that you have so much pain in your right foot. I hate to hear that it brought tears to your eyes. But if the exercise will increase your mobility then maybe the pain will gradually decrease in time. So glad you are here to share with us though and hope you able to rest in between.
Happy a wonderful spring day,

Love Justmom

Oooh... please add ALL of the smilies, dear tec (peace to you!), if it doesn't "cost" anything. The more the merrier!

And seconding dear 'Mom's greeting, dear Zoe (peace to you, both!)... I hope the exercises and new "ride" both bring you some relief and help improve/better sustain your quality of life!

Peace, dear ladies!

Your servant and a slave of Christ,

Morning everyone, it is yet another gorgeous day here, we went straight from winter to summer. It was Hot in here last night, got the fans going.

I am going to sit on the back deck all day and enjoy

I was just catching up with the posts here. Zoe, I'm so sorry you're in such pain and difficulty. I do hope that with the spring and summer things will improve a bit.

You wrote about the robin's nest on the ladder. What happened to it, I wonder?

Do you know, in this country it's actually illegal to destroy or move a nest until the young are fledged and flown. No matter the inconvenience, nests are sacrosanct.
