oh my gosh, Aussie! I can't imagine how you must be managing with this new injury on top of your knee. Either is enough to set most people back. Take care, I hope you mend soon.

Good Grief Girl! I'm feeling a heck of a lot better than what you have been through. I still think we could resolve a lot but finding us an island and a pool boy to bring us some tropical drinks! Sorry about all your mishaps!

Hey Joyce it's only in my mind....wishing for a little sun and salt to ease the day. If we were really going, we'd find a way to bring you along and shield you so you could enjoy it too.

Oh, I am so so sorry. You are really bandaged up now. I can only imagine the pain. I fractured a wrist once. Sounds like you did a number on it. Hope you are better soon. Hugs. Possi

I am sorry you are hurting. This unsettled weather really does a number on me. I hope you enjoy the islands. I have to avoid the sun because of Lupus. I go out all covered in sunscreen, long sleeves with sun resistance and a hat! I might as wel

Thanks Nonnie. Yes, that makes sense. I have just wondered if it is coincidental since I have it a lot at other times. Hope you are enjoying the weekend. Precious pictures.

Good Idea. Valsmum. :o) That's not it though in this case. I have had it since the early 80's and certain movements trigger it and I think my neck problem is also triggering it. I appreciate your input. Hope you are having a good day.

Thanks for the input. I have had vertigo off and on for about 30 years. It began with the Lupus diagnosis. We have a recliner that hits my neck wrong and I kicked back the other day intending to just be there a few minutes and I went to sleep. I

Sorry to hear you are having "one of those days" I hope it doesn't progress to "one of those weeks/months" I agree AS and the weather must have some sort of pact going. It is getting colder here and I am not liking it at all. Can
