I know that I haven't blogged in a long time. I got hooked on Facebook and never came back to my blog. On July 14, 2009 I had surgery on my neck. I had bone spurs that were pushing into the nerve and the disc 4 and 5 had collapsed, it was the collapsed disc rubbing together that had built the spurs. They went in and placed a plate in my neck and removed the spurs. Mostly the spur on the left, it was the one pushing into the nerve causing my left arm to go numb and hurt like crazy. I have posted a couple of pictures of the x-ray showing the plate in my neck. It is actually kind of cool to look at. I went in for my 6 month checkup Thursday January 21, 2010 and everything is looking great. At least that is what the doctor says. I have no more numbing in my arm or pain in my arm which I am grateful for.




Monday, January 18, 2010 was a Holiday, so I didn't have to work. My friend and I went for a drive to get out of the city for awhile because of the smog we have had it was nice go up where the air was cleaner. We drove up Emigration Canyon for a ways and then took the East Canyon loop towards Parleys Canyon. We were going to drive up East Canyon but the road was closed. We drove up to Park City instead and stopped for a little bit at the ski resort and watched the skiers. I took a couple pictures of the ski slopes. It was clowdy, another snow storm was moving in, so it was really cold, so we didn't last long. We then drove around and went to the Tanger outlet stores and went into Old Navy and I bought a couple of Sweat pants, they were on sale. Then we came home. We were gone about 4 hours.
