Sore back…

I went to see the doctor today. I had a sore back on last Thursday. Actually sore back did not bother me that much if I did not have the numbness at the tip of my fingers and my toes. I thought that numbness might be because of vitamin B deficiency. The doctor said she did not think that the numbness and the backache were related. The numbness might be because of what I thought and she asked me to have an appointment with the nurse for having blood test. I also asked her about my headache which I had quite often. I explained to her how my headache was and she said it’s called Cluster Headache. She said she will check the level of B12 (Cobalamin), B9 (Folic Acid) and salt from my blood. I am a bit relieved now.

There were so many things happened last week. I was a Taggie sitter on Wednesday. Charlotte went to see her therapist on that day and I borrowed Taggie to be with me at my house while she was away. At first I thought she would like to go home because she was not stay still. I almost took her back to her house but it came on rain so she stuck with me. I decided to watch the television with her. She was so well behave. Always sit like a lady.

On Friday, my parents-in-law came to visit us. We had fish suppers that night. It was good. We planned to have barbeque on Saturday but it was raining so we could not. Dad helped us in the garden on Saturday to make the protection for carrots from carrot flies. After we finished we thought it looked like coffin.

Our potatoes were so big and need to be covered up with the soil but we were not sure how to do it. So dad was very helpful for this. He said it would be easier if I did it when they were smaller than this.

I took some photos of my HG and his dad. One was when they were planting some vegetables I bought from garden center and the other one was on Sunday when we had barbequed. Dad was waiting for the sausages. Dad also helped me on Sunday to do the hanging baskets. This was my first time for the hanging basket. It was quite difficult if I had to do it by myself. I will take some photos of the hanging basket later when they are in flowers. They look a bit pathetic just now.

Beaver sent me URL to BBC website to spot the fake smile and asked me if I could spot the difference between a fake smile and a real one. I got 17 out of 20.
