What A Difference 2 Days Make!

Hey now...

Well you've seen the devastation Gout can do if your diet, acid, weight, etc. is out of whack. I managed to get to the clinic to be seen this past Monday, March 23 to finally get some pain and Gout meds to help me with this problem. Of course I got the prescriptions filled the same day and what a relief in a day and a half. A lot of the swelling has subsided but still red and tender but at least I can stand and walk on it with little or no effort. So attached are the latest pics. I'll be really on my feet in no time

Until next time...

Happy Spring!!!

Well people I hope the Spring time will bring you new beginnings and end the old crap you've been going through thus far. This is a grand time to start projects, or at least finish the old ones; like that book you couldn't wait to read but for some reason you're still on chapter 1.

As for me, well Mother Nature started my Spring time with GOUT! Oh the pain of having to limp across the floor just to get to the toilet and you've pissed all the way there (LOL)... well almost. Gout is a painful arthritic condition that happens to mostly males but some females (I am a lady) will get it due to the body being too acidic. So the trick is to get it back to the balance of akaline/acidic! Pain meds tend to knock the edge off but taking too much (NSaids) may make it possible to be my last pain. I'd be dead for sure.

So attached are pics taken from yesterday and today. I've did the epsom salt soaks but for whatever reason it's not working this time. I have an appt. at the clinic Monday @ 10am. So I'm looking forward to some kind of help here. Can't wear all those cute sandals when your foot looks like this.

Well wish me luck. Hope you all have a blessed weekend and enjoyed the Spring. It snowed here in NYC. Give love and save some for yourself...

Blessed Be,
Kiki

My Night @ Club Escuelita (NYC)

Hey now...

Just dropping a few lines after a fabulous night on the town at
NYC's Club Escuelita, 301 W 39th St. (@ 39th) NYC.
www.enyclub.com

I went there to pick up some music from a diva sistah of mine, Ms.Harmonica Sunbeam. I had no intention on staying but after I got there, I noticed a contest being held. Not just any contest... Exotic Dancers! Well of course I'd never pass up a view of one of God's greatest creations, men!

Soon after all of the madness and craziness, Harmonica in all her glory gets out there and rocks the crowd with grace, humor and song! She's got to be one of the hardest working performers out there. Believe me Harmonica's audience $hows their appreciation and some. I'm so thankful to have her as a friend and a sistah!

From our days back in my hometown of Philadelphia, PA (Stars II) and now here at NYC's Escuelita; if you ever get a chance to come to mid-town Manhattan, go check out Ms. Harmonica Sunbeam. You'll never be the same!!!

Thanks for the love Ms. Harmonica Sunbeam!
