Gee, in a way you're lucky?
 
That when you fell, you've got well, 'something to show for it all'! My first fall, hit the back of my head and other than pumpkin sized feet/ankles...and a serious 'hobble' nothing OBVIOUS. Last fall, it was the knee. Wearing shorts around here when it's freezing is not ideal, especially w/PN. But, I refused to miss my neuro's appt [cancelled 6 other year end appointments..] well, you should have seen his face when I rolled/hobbled in! Close to priceless? I think he would have caught flies had it not been winter? Jaw down, speechless-he, I just said: Fell, in house...fractures two. Rest for 2+ months, according to the ortho-then we just got down to neuro business.

At least it wasn't a 'what'd ya do now?' or something like 'neuropathy acting up?' With those comments I mite have become a violent person. My neuro is tactful...Thank goodness! More hugs and pain-free thoughts - j

PS I gotta just bet that he had all he could do not to burst out laughing until after I left! I do wonder about that.

Hmmm...

First notification of pending date (seems hardly any time has lapsed) advising us that Dr. John and Sue were going waterskiing on their first date.... A month ago, maybe two???

Then this: "Now no comments, but I am moving in with Dr. John" -like the total innocent babe...

and finally: "Dr. John is handsome and has 6 baths."

Surely she didn't think we would let this totally slide by unnoticed... :)

Heh heh heh... You have to watch out for these nurses...
That's our Sue...

Melody that was a cute video and your husband is not what I thought he would like. You guys look so young.
Sue ok now I understand. Now is Dr John the dr you were dating?Now your moving in? What about your home? Who did you live with?Its good with 6 baths he has a housekeeper. I always said if I was rich I would have a huge bathroom like my gramps. Its a huge jacuzzi tub with a television. His bathroom is huge. I could live in there.
I agree about young college people helping out. Even if you don't want them to live with you. Many would love the experience and work cheap.
Gosh I'm sorry about all the falls. Its my fear every day. Even when I trip I freak out. My neuro when I said my legs feel like they will give out from the pain sometimes she sys it won't it just feels like it. I still am skeptical.
Have a good day

Curious,
I love this thread. I can keep up with everyone and....I don't feel guilty when I'm posting something that diverts a thread to me. Honestly..I needed a whole thread about me and so did Sue and ..so did Melody.

Mrs. D...where are your cats?....:D

mrsD 11-17-2007 06:08 PM

cats....you want cats?
 
They are busy with food demands....gimme gimme all day long.

Can't go outside anymore, too cold. gimme gimme.

I am doing Ebay still... buying supplies for some hobbies.

I just got 11 lbs of semi-precious stones (tumbled and nicely shined up)
to make some things out of. ( long story...too long for now).

When I get one done, I'll photograph it.
Here is a hint.... I have a "collection" of natural items over my computer.
One of them---behind the little framed fossil--- is a "rock ball" I bought at a mineral specimen store several years ago. I am going to make some like that, out the the stones I just got from Ebay. Say a rose quartz one, and jade one.
We'll see what comes of this project!

See if you can make out the items on the shelf. Sort of like a "puzzle".
I'll come back tomorrow and see how good you are at identifying rocks! LOL

MelodyL 11-17-2007 06:15 PM

Why don't some of you "shy" people, get on your webcams (that is, if you indeed do have webcams), and make a video (like Alan and I did.

That way, we can make each other laugh!!!

Gee Wish Mrs D?!!!
 
IF you'd asked me about them say 5 years ago, I probably coulda nailed them all! Now, must be all the different meds for all the differerent things, the brain KNOWS but the translation to the rest of the world is plain old mush-ness!

Curious? Can we call them more like 'SLIPPERS?' After all, you should grasp by now how vehemently we all feel about them thar SHOES? After all, many of us have-to wear slippers for most non-shoe life.

Cathie and Mel? About Sue? If you go into the waaay-back machine, her intro said, that you probably know me from elsewhere, but I'm going to be different 'here'. Well, Duh? Sue is super at inserting heaps of very obtuse humor here, BUT, the one thing I do not doubt rite now is that she has been hurting, and badly, in many ways now. So what if it is hard to follow at times, some of us in our own pain can be so as well.

As for Sue? I only gotta ask: How many of those multiple bathrooms are 'accessable'????? Falling in a 'docs' house while 'bathing' could create all sorts of unwarranted rumors? Ask others here - falls are not considered a fun experience! Hugs to all - j
