Really Coldonion

Hi all,
well with wind chill factored in, yesterday was a chilly - 40 C. Everyone is looking forward to the warmness that - 4C is spposed to be on Thursday!!!!
Luckily, we put the winter tires on 3 weeks ago, so driving is not to bad, intersections are like ice rinks right now!!
Yesterday was a check up for Roanna who is doing well, we got to hear the heartbeat again, met one of the possible docyors who may be at the birth (at this clinic, they have four doctors who do the visits, but when the time comes for birth who ever is on call shows up.)
lets see, a bit of bad news on my tire shop job, apparently with th week of training i did, apparently has not been good for my hands. been to the clinic twice, and the doctors think it is carple tunnel syndrome. currently i am on a anti-inflamitory medication, and just picked up a couple of hand splints to wear at night. Last night was the first good night of sleep in a few days. The pain was so bad sunday night I thought I was having a heart attack for a while, pain from my finger tips right up to my chest. So yesterday i called in sick, then spent an hour at the clinic, on a sidenote the doctor i saw, an englishman, worked at King Edwards back in Bermuda way back in 1982. We spent about 20 minutes talking about Bermuda.
So now I am supposed to take a nerve induction test, this is to see if it is actual nerve or tendon damage, next week I also take a blood test, so they can see wat my B12 level and a few other things are.
I just got my benefits, which start on December 1st, and already I am gonna have to use them, hopefully I can claim back on the stuff right now, so far I have spend about 110 bucks on visits, meds and the splints, I haven't got my health card yet, so I am hoping it is in the mail....

Let's see what else, my computer power supply blew up on Saturday, hopefully, no damage to any other components. hopefully, it will be okay, i plan to pop over to a computer store tonight and get a new one.

Well enough of the update, it is pretty tough to type one handed, take care everyone.

-40, still sunbathing weather!
Oh the dreaded carple tunnel. Had both wrists cut and fixed, so has Linda. Maybe your mom too. I had the nerve induction test a few years ago because of my kneck problems. Will have it again next week as now I am having numbness in lower half of body. All I can tell you is YOU WILL BE GLAD WHEN IT IS OVER!!!!!
Best to all, I will call your mom and let her know. She is sooooo boored
 
Yeah the doctor showed me his scars he had on his wrists. Right now I am not sure what is gonna happen at work, gonna go in tomorrow and see whats up. Anyhoo, say hi to the family from us, happy to say it is a "high" of -12 C right now, tomorrow it is supposed to break the single digits, who hoo.
