Hello Gang,<br /><br />I&#39;m here...not my best, that&#39;s for sure.  I did go to work yesterday.  Thankfully, we just had staff meeting and there were no cases.  I&#39;m still under the weather...and it&#39;s raining again.  I really get PTSD when I drive down Potrero past the trees.  Actually, I see that the whole tree didn&#39;t fall on the car...it split in half.  I&#39;m going to have to take my camera and photograph the darn tree...since no one got pictures of it the half on top of my car.  I talked to the city attorney and I may have a claim.  Anyway, they told me to file it, especially since I will get very little from my insurance.  <br /><br />I saw my doctor yesterday and she&#39;s sending me to physical therapy and to an orthopedist -my own won&#39;t see me ( he&#39;s followed me for 25 years, since my laminectomy and fusion ) if there&#39;s a hint of litigation in this situation.....  I work tomorro and am on call Saturday night but, otherwise ( thankfully ), I&#39;m off again until Wed.  By then, I should be MUCH better.<br /><br />Haven&#39;t been online since it hurts to sit at the computer.  I have a bucket of Vicodin but I hate taking that stuff.  I&#39;ve thrown out so much of that over the years.  <br /><br />Miss you all, though, that&#39;s for sure&#33;<br /><br />I am going out tonight, with my son, Shawn, to a beautiful Vietnamese place, Ana Mandara that I was supposed to go to for Christmas dinner.  We also had our Indian meal at Amber India on Tuesday - terrific food.  I can always rally to eat&#33;<br /><br />Love to all,<br /><br />Carmen
