I usually don't buy things in Chico's because their clothes don't fit me. I have been looking for navy pants and looked everywhere and could not find anything so I thought I would give Chico's a try. I found just what I was looking for. I need petite and the stores carry a very small selection. I don't look at the tops because I like more fitted styles. Lois, I like the jeans you bought. I may go over to Chico's this weekend and see if I can find these. Did you get the jeans in petite?

This week I had a couple of doctor appts. On Tuesday I had a follow up with the podiatrist for the capsulitis. It is better but not completely gone. The doctor made a couple of straps for that toe that are removable. I don't need to wear the strap all the time. Today I saw the cardiologist. The results from the holter monitor were good and I also asked about all the tests done in the hospital. He told me everything looked good. I don't need to see him for 3 months. Melody - Hope your recovery and PT go smoothly. Lois - As your MD told you, maybe your system needs to adjust after all you've gone through and everything clears up on its own.

I have been on many solo cruises. Going to Bermuda next month on Celebrity. When I go to the WJ, I also leave a sign "Occupied, coming right back" and I take an old paperback and leave it on the table. After getting a beverage and silverware, I go back for food and try to get whatever I want at once. After getting the food, I go back to see what the desserts are and I either get one or fruit. I try to get everything I want so I don't need to get up. Tipping your chair forward also shows the table is occupied.

Melody - Sorry to hear about this setback for Les. Hope he does well tomorrow. Lois - I can understand how you feel about taking a long flight. I was supposed to go to Alaska next month but changed the cruise to Bermuda. I see the cardiologist Friday to get the results of the Holter monitor. Kat - Cool looking sneakers.

Yes, this condition is super painful. I know it can take a couple of days for the cortisone shot to work. As you know, traveling alone requires adjustments. I need to be able to lift and handle luggage on my own. When I had a traveling partner, I didn't think twice about what I was taking. I learned I can take less and still have enough.

The bag I have is 40 years old. I don't think these are made any more. The brand is Sasson. Is there a Ross Stores near you? They have a big luggage dept. and I have seen bags similar to what I have. It is a small/medium duffle bag made out of a heavier nylon. The bag I have wears like iron. Its been everywhere. My friend also bought one and hers is going strong, too. This morning I had an emergency podiatry appointment. For a few weeks, I have had pain on the top of my foot, second toe. It gradually became worse to the point I could barely walk and had severe pain. Also the area was discolored, similar to a bruise. I had an x-ray and it showed I have capsulitis, an inflation of the ligament. I got a cortisone shot. I was getting worried because my cruise is coming up and no way could I go if I could not walk.
