It was the...

RONG THING TO DO..

The stretching I mean...MY hip/leg is as bad as ever again.  I can barely walk and its so painful...damn. I really screwed up.  I have my next appt on Thursday...hope I can make it till then...and wouldn't you know we had 2 days of storms and my yard is a disaster zone...branches all over the place. We had 60 mph gusts and every tree was whipping around like a rag doll...these are 100 ft tall pines that could cut my house in half if they fell on it.  SO  scary.  We had no electric for 12 hrs after the wind knocked it out...it was a hot night too my bed was like a swamp...

So I had planned to bird today and clean up the yard tomorrow it's going to be low humidity tomorrow...So off I went fairly early to bird it got HOT 94...I was a hot mess when I decided to head home at noon...and my  Van window made a funny sound then stopped moving! Dang...I had replaced the window regulator in this window in 2017 not that long ago.  SO when I got  home I pulled in the shade and proceeded to take out the inside door panel to have a look...that darn regulator failed!! The wire was all out of place, it had gotten hung on something and it simply was bollixed.  It is sold as a whole unit. The motor, the spool of wire its all rolled up like a weed eater type cog mechanism...you push the button it unwinds and then push again it rolls back up..

Meanwhile I pulled the glass up and put painters tape  around it on both sides to keep it up...and I will shove some rags inside the cavity in case it does slip down...and I ordered another one, I swear it's such a poorly engineered piece of crap.  The one I replaced on the Toyota was ingenious.  I just hope this new one will last longer than 5 yrs! And to add to the stress, Fed Ex is delivering it...omg. I will be swearing bullets till it arrives...and speaking of that....

I was so worn out when I finally came inside to cool off, have something to eat and drink then get a shower I could barely move...by that time  2 pm my pain meds had worn off and I was a complete mess myself...I came out of the shower and spread eagle on my bed for 20 mins just to gain strength to put on clothes!!

The old grey nag is not what she used to be...And I swear every nerve in my body was unhappy I had pain in every inch of me...total misery.  I just don't get it.  And the heat does not help...It was not as humid but it was so intensely hot...humidity helps one to cool off actually...the dry heat is not what I'm used to and since my leg has had me limping for months I have not keep strong....

I really am at the end of my rope.  Guess my regulator just broke.
