I HATE KIDNEY STONES

Yesterday we went to the Boise Temple because Meridian is closed for cleaning. We picked up Lynn and headed into town. Brother Poulson was going to go with us as well but, something came up with his job so he was unable to. 

We did two endowments and then went to CHUCK A RAMA for lunch afterwards. It was a beautiful day. When we got home, I got a package for the Jarretts off their porch and took it into their home. I had taken care of the cat before going to the temple. I was glad of that because the said they were on their way home from McCall, and we wanted to go to the gym. We met Pat at the gym and walked our 4 miles. I have been feeling very lethargic and just not up to par. We sat on the couch and watched HUDSON & REX in the evening and around 9, I started having low back pain on the left side. It persisted and I knew I had a kidney stone trying to pass. I've had enough of them, so I know what's going on.  I tried sleeping in bed, but it just wasn't happening. I ended up pacing the floor downstairs and sitting on the toilet half the night. I finally put a heating pad on my side and was able to drift off for a bit on the couch. It was awful. Such a lousy night and not one I want to repeat tonight. I was glad we didn't have to get up early this morning and serve at the temple because I wouldn't have made it. Tony came down at 7am, so I got up. I fed him breakfast and then he headed outside to work on the fence. I took an Aleive and started drinking lemon water.

Patrick came out to help Tony and they got the old part tore down and the posts dug out.

They hope to get all the new posts cemented in and will put the boards up on Monday or Tuesday of next week.

I got busy making a potato salad and then a macaroni salad for dinner tomorrow. When I finished with those, I made a rub for a pork roast and got that in the slow cooker.  Then I came up and started going through my drawers and getting rid of clothes I can't wear.( well, I could if I lost weight) Tony had taken down all the tubs that I had things stored in as well so I got rid of a lot of the clothes in them too. He did the same thing a few days ago. He said if we lose weight, we'll just buy new things. lol 

Well, I guess I'll go rest before Tony comes in.  I think I passed the stone because I'm feeling much better. AND glad I got some things accomplished today. 

Posts are cemented in and they be putting the fence boards on Monday or Tuesday! 

It will be great to have a fence that is not sagging.
