Rocky Raccoon: Have to grab my ankle with my teeth to move it forward, then again and again...Slow going!
Then suddenly he stopped and ambled away...
Morning calisthenics?
On - fortunately - rare days, my cat's hip joints give her a hard time. She then hardly eats and probably also has pain when walking. Today was one of those days. It seems that old cats, like humans, also react with increased joint pain when the weather changes.
and we'll, sing it back to you. we could sing our own, but what would it, be without you?
the following is my entry for a competition at the morris museum we're doing in lit. it's inspired by a painting.
“Do you think this tie suitable?” the old man asked, his cerulean eyes fixed in gentle understanding, slightly oversized ears hearing something in the following silence. After just a moment he gave a quaint smile to the object below him, nodding his head and chuckling emptily, “yes, I did think you would. The maroon matches so nicely with you.” He ended his sentence as though it were a question, turning away from the polka dotted maroon loveseat and entering the dingy building behind him with some sort of sad agreement.
Speaking as though not just to himself, the old man continued, “I rather like cloudy days. Everything feels so clear without the sun,” he laughed, “speaking of those, Roger has said he would come visit the store this morning. That’s the cause for the tie.”
Clearing his throat nervously as if second-guessing the tie, the man began his daily routine, which was today accelerated in order to make a nice impression upon this visitor. He hobbled around the store swiftly as his rheumatoid arthritis would allow, smiling halfheartedly with an honestly worried look about his face. His anxiety was visibly rising with the sun, and he made nearly continual glances out of the murky shop window towards the loveseat, as if just to make sure it was still there. He moved the delicate, dusky objects within the shop as if to reorganize his mind, as well.
After a few hours of feeble attempts at work and understated chaos, an attractive, middle-aged man arrived at the door with a black briefcase. He had a serious look about his face, with a consciously furrowed brow and a slight frown of anticipation, yet he approached the old man in the shop with a sudden smile. The old man returned the gesture and gave the visitor a weak pat on the shoulder.
“Nice to see you, Roger, nice to see you. How are things at the firm?”
“Fair, I’d say, after this case we had last week – repetitive theft and larceny, crook got away clean. I suppose it was mostly my newest hire, man from Darlington. Quite a turnout, quite a turnout, indeed,” replied Roger.
There was a blaring silence as the old man returned from his mysterious distraction.
“Lovely to hear that, lovely,” he muttered in a blank monotone, looking significantly more anxious. He made a sideways glance out of the window and muttered some sort of plea under his breath in pining as the attorney sat down in a creaky chair.
The furrowed brow of the sitting man returned as he looked around the dirty shop.
“Listen,” he said, opening his black briefcase, “that isn’t what I came to talk about. I know it’s been difficult. None of us are immune to that.”
The old man stared out the window as his breathing accelerated. He interrupted the defined lines of his face with a heavy blink and stayed perfectly still, rooted to the spot. The attorney sighed in frustration and fumbled through his briefcase until he found a glossy booklet. He stared at it for a fleeting moment and sighed again deeply.
“Dad,” the man continued, “I know what this shop is to you. It’s been in the family for years – but just look around. Look what you’re living in. This is getting dreadfully out of hand.”
Roger stopped, aggravated by his father’s seeming indifference and lack of cooperation. He locked the shiny buckles of his briefcase and stood up as the chair creaked in protest beneath him. His brow furrowed impossibly further, and he cleared his throat with determination.
“Look. I know you don’t want to do this, but bottom line, you can’t handle living here anymore. I’ve found a nice place at the edge of town. It’s called Brookhaven. They’ll be coming soon. I know it’s going to be difficult for you to leave, but ever since Mum died…”
The old man burst from his silence in a hysterical high-pitched wail and cradled his head in his hands. He began hobbling towards the open door, towards the polka-dotted maroon loveseat, where it was two summers ago and everything was as it should still be.
Before his knees could allow the old man to reach the door, the attorney took his arms behind his back and held him still. His son was shorter but much stronger than he, and the old man continued to scream and struggle in the attorney’s grip. After what seemed like an eternity the old man was partially released as Roger voiced,
“Now, you’re going to stay still. They’ll be here any minute now, and I’ll go with you to help get your things situated. Don’t try to run off.”
Nearly as he finished his sentence an old tan station wagon pulled up on the curb. A plump woman in scrubs with even plumper hair and plum lips opened the passenger door and walked around the front of the car towards the old man and his son. She nodded briefly at Roger and then turned to the old man with an overly sweet smile and degrading stare. He was still visibly upset, but obviously put off by the woman’s bigotry.
“It’s nice to meet you,” she articulated towards the old man, “we’ve got all of your things nice and ready to go.”
After few more indistinguishable words she pseudosmiled again and took the old man’s arm vigorously and guided him into the car. His face expressed insane defiance, but his body had somehow surrendered to this inconsiderate torture. He climbed into the backseat of the station wagon and stared out of its window, one which was familiarly filthy, like the one in the front of his store. He began to bang on the window, wailing and crying again like an infant, staring at the polka-dotted maroon loveseat.
No, they had not gotten all of his things./b>
Only the males have antlers, which start growing in the spring and are shed each winter. The largest antlers may be 1.2 m (4 ft) long and weigh 18 kg (40 lb). Antlers are made of bone which can grow at a rate of 2.5 cm (1 inch) per day. While actively growing, the antlers are covered with and protected by a soft layer of highly vascularised skin known as velvet. The velvet is shed in the summer when the antlers have fully developed.
Elk Antler Velvet is a natural remedy for Arthritis - it reduces inflammation, influences body metabolism, supports immune function, protects damaged tissues and affects blood, liver and kidney function.

Arthritis cant kill you but it can take your life
I live with chronic 'invisible' illness, there is no cure, but I can manage the symptoms. Through various places I have met lots of friends who also have chronic illnesses, many have forms of arthritis (please remember, there are many different forms). I am always amazed by the strength they have, how brave they are.
Today is World Arthritis Day, I wanted my photo to represent that. Heres some more info for you:

Arthritis cant kill you but it can take your life.
Edited to add this article, which highlights what it can be like to live with such an illness: www.butyoudontlooksick.com/articles/written-by-christine/...
Yesterday, the sun was shining warm on my skin. I had my props sorted and I was off to do some “walkabout” at an old folks’ home for "Carnival Day". Walkabout means that I do close-up magic and make balloon animals. But having worked with seniors, I know it’s mostly about talking with them and making them laugh. They like to laugh.
This particular job was a little tougher because they were all REALLY senior. Most of them were at least in their eighties and nearly all were confined to wheelchairs or hobbling slowly with walkers. Some gazed off into space and left me wondering what they were thinking about…or what the world looked like to them.
At the pie throwing booth, the physical therapist had her head thrust forward and was happily taking cream pie after cream pie in the face. Each time she did, the crowd applauded in a reserved old people way. A few hollered things like “It serves you right,” and the whole group would laugh.
“She hurts us, you know,” confided Sophie. “She makes us exercise. Every day. But we love her anyway.”
I met her for the first time yesterday. Sophie is confined into what is essentially a rolling bed. She has only one leg and arthritis has twisted her fingers into parodies of what they once were.
But Sophie turned out for the carnival in a colorful moo moo, a ridiculously garish hat with little red pom poms taped to the brim and way too many rings and bracelets. When she spoke I had to listen very carefully because she couldn’t move the right side of her face very well. But she laughed at the magic and she clapped her crippled hands when I made a balloon dog dance at the end of a leash.
I was feeling quite emotional looking at these people, which is not at all cool when you are supposed to be entertaining them. Sometimes they would doze off in the middle of a trick they’d asked to see. Sometimes they pleaded for a balloon like a child would and then wander off forgetting you were even there.
Sometimes I would talk with them and see them nod – but know all the while they had no idea what I was saying to them…but they were glad, I think, just to have someone talking and laughing with them.
I was thinking, wondering actually, if they had lived too long. So many of them were simply gone…many moved in obvious pain…and a number were trembling with cold, despite the hot sun beating down on them and the layers of blankets they wore.
Then Sophie and her attendant rolled up beside me. She smiled with the half of her mouth that still worked. (And in case you are a skeptical type…no…I’m not making any of this up.) She started telling me about her life. She told me about the war and how her son died when he was three and no one knew why. She told me about nights when they didn’t have enough to eat and how her husband just disappeared one day and no one ever found out where he went.
Then she smiled and said “Can you make me something colorful? I want to take it back to my room.”
I did.
And I realized that Sophie hadn’t lived too long. She was still very much engaged in that process and the thought I’d had earlier shamed me just a little.
So this is for you, “Sugar.”
I fully expect to show it to you the next time we meet.
I’m glad we made each other smile.
remember the other day i said i rarely wear a skirt? well this is my usual garment of choice, although as a rule i do elect to wear a top with them ;-D
i've been looking at everyone's 'blue' pictures today for world arthritis day with a lot of interest, especially from those who are personally effected.
i spend a fair percentage of my time whinging about my flabby stomach, or my too broad shoulders, or my peculiar shaped nose...and then i read stories from carey and jaime and feel throughly ashamed of myself. and wonder what the bloody hell i'm complaining about. so this (heavily processed as i'm still a bit shy) tribute is for you :-)

Arthritis cant kill you but it can take your life
I've always loved my father's hands, not just for their looks but for the work they did. Now he's 87 and terribly arthritic. Still love his hands!
This woman faithfully writes letters to those she loves, despite the crippling arthritis in her hands. These hand shots were part of a slide show on the "hands of heaven on earth".
Tiger Balm white is effective for migraine headaches, insect bites or nasal congestion.

Swelling and deformity of the DIP joint - the end joint of the finger. This is the most common place for osteoarthritis in the hand.
Radiograph of thumb arthritis showing bone spurs and near dislocation of the worn out CMC joint of the thumb.
I worked from home yesterday and didn't get out to take any pictures. I did grab a few shots with my phone, so I thought I would share this one.
I have suffered from lower back pain off and on for several years, so this year when it flared up, I found out what the problem was. I have arthritis in my lower back (between three of the lower vertebrae), which flares up if I don't exercise or stretch enough. I have gone to physical therapy a few times now and have a set of exercises/stretches that help (I also take Aleve).
So here is a shot of me stretching my right leg, which also helps strengthen my hip and back.
Cheers,
Wade

The MP joint in the middle of the thumb is hyperextended. It loosens up over the years as the next joint towards the wrist (the CMC joint) wears out and stiffens up. This is very advanced osteoarthritis of the thumb.

Today is world arthritis day and the topic of the day is to keep moving.
I know a few people who have or have had arthritis and it's such a painful disease that it can affect their life in such a horrible way. Although the general consensus seems to be that it's an old persons disease, it actually isn't. I can't imagine the pain, both physically and emotionally of such a dibilitating illness.
So on behalf of all of the people who suffer in the world today with this, this is my little tribute to them. If you feel so inclined to give a donation to charity, this is a very worthy cause.
