if you can offer help or assistance in any way.
This week I go to see a counselor about hoarding or cluttering. Sometimes I wonder if it is any use to just do things because others are doing that same thing. Sometimes I think the greater evil is throwing stuff away so you need to buy it again.
I could not seem to get into the on-line program in PHP class , it is like the javascipt progarm I am sick and can not do much these days, especiall with the problems in my hands. Thes programs are by SitePoint in Austrailia. I like these on-line learning sessions.
Friday I went to the Hot Topics in Philanthropy lecture at BayPath college. It was great, all aobut the changeing ways the non-profit sector is and will be communicating. Very enlightening.
Please continue to pray. My back and especially my neck muscles hurt. The professionals still say I need hearing aids in both ears. I am happy with the way the 2nd opinion Doctor is proceeding, cautiously and by getting lots of empirical information before a decsion is mage. I go to see him again a few days after the 4th of July. The pain in my arms, still feels like the muscles are atrophying; as if the muscles are being torn away from my bones. I saw my primary chare physician and she had no suggestion as to what to do. She thought maybe the Senior Care Option special insurance might help me with massage therapy but the regular insurance will not pay. I am under MassHealth so I have experienced first hand what "ObamaCare" would be like. As I said, it hurts, but then releaving the pain is not a priority when you are not an important person.
I note again that my arms and especially the have had a much reduced pain level.
I noticed many days when the pain was not so present or not present at all at times during this week as well.
Maybe because I was not at a computer at any time during Friday-Saturday until Sunday evening. Maybe the carple tunnel is acting up now, one of the tests said I had carple tunnel disease from repetative tasks. But maybe, just maybe, God is healing that spine and I might not need another operation.
I am glade I went to the Berkshires last weekend in May to put out flowers for Memorial Day at the graves and attended the Stockbridge Grange meeting. They had paid my dues for this year when I had no money, so I paid for next year, and am glad I did that. The problem seems to be in paying the real estate taxes, no bill yet and they are due.
I often feel I have not made the right decisons most of the time. I just does not feel good to think you are a called a worthless nobody by many people and the inference is that can not contribute much at all to life and the "society" is taking care of your minimal needs until you finally hurry up and die. That review of my life is so depressing. It seems that every time I have had an opportunity to make a decision, I have made the wrong one. People seem to say I make the wrong decsions BUT if I do follow thier advice, and it turns out wrong, I am still blamed for doing so anyway. At the Relay for Life a friend asked me not to speak those negative words out loud, not even to think of them. She said they are said by people who think I am achieving something they could not achive, so they say the negative things about me to make them feel better. Then when I came back from Grand Lodge I was told that regardless of what some people may think, the Grand Lodge of Massachusetts, I.O.O.F., sees a value in me and I should focus upon that positive expectation. I just do now know what to do. I will be away from Saturday anyway through maybe Tuesday of next week. So I am writing this as I do not expect to be here to do so this weekend. Thanks for praying for me as you read these comments.
I think one needs to rely on GOD and test the advice you are given and then go forwards;"full speed ahead"!
The Bible Reading Guide that it seemed God prompted me to assemble for the Orthodox Study Bible is in a PDF format for people to look at, perhaps others would enjoy keeping up with it.

The info. below is still sort of ok.
I have made a tri-fold resume like a brochure, my doctor said no work for at lest the next 3-6 months, ouch. It was last year, October 18th, when many donated to the Western Massachusetts Arthritis Foundation Walk. My back hurts, my neck hurts, I just plain hurt. I hope people will donate also again this coming fall.
Soon I am helping in the Relay for Life of the American Cancer Society. We had meetings on it this week on the PTK induction ceremony next week but I did not go.
What follows are the new information about my injuries and the progress from my NeuroSurgeon! I am in great pain and have difficulty doing many things.
I said last before that I would probably take them down from here. Now I will keep them up a little longer so you can see what I am having difficulty in healing from.

I was released of the braces on the same day as my accident, but 4 months later! BUT NOW I HAVE LOTS OF PAIN. And they do not know why !!!
But the new medicines are helping the pain in the left had some. I thank God for my current Doctor.
