Well, Vonn, I already told you on Facebook that this just isn't right on top of the MS, but dang that does suck. I won't say it isn't fair because it isn't up to us, but that is scary. Keep us posted OK?

Oh my gosh! Let us know when you find out more and try not to worry too much!!!

Oh, goodness, Vonn! Did they tell you which kind? A, B or C? Isn't that contagious? I'm so sorry to hear this. Please let us know what the doctor tells you.

thanks, Kelly, Wiz, Holly ... I'll be fine .. I'm not worried, can't be .. but, now I understand why I was having all these weird sx's ... and now, maybe the SSDI will go thru without question ... I did write a letter to my lawyer .. and then had to open it up before I mailed it to hand-write about the new 'discovery' ...

all things work together for good .. for a reason. at first, I didn't understand the MS - until I made up my mind that I wasn't going to let it hold me back - and I learned a thing or two (and still learning) including patience .. found out who my real friends are (that was was a tough one - especially when I learned how to say 'no') and what a wonderful support group and friends I met online since the MS thanks!! ..

I've been eating good and taking vitamins ... and keeping my attitude in check ... something good will come of all of this!

hopefully it will get me closer to moving back up north and spreading my quilting wings .. and painting wings ... and writing wings ... some more!!

thanks for always listening to me ... will keep you posted what else I find out ... will be having a CT scan too - have to find out where and when!

P.S. Kell .. I'm not sure which letter of the alphabet yet - the blood tests I go in for today are more specified - but, the nurse didn't say if I was contagious .. so, maybe we caught it early enough for treatment ...

I'll be fine .. remember, I still have to move up north, build my lighthouse and make quilts .. love yas!!

aw Vonn...please keep us posted as to what is going on.

hey all....hugs to everyone!!

Today was a better morning, my youngest got on the bus no problem. Not sure how we backstepped yesterday but all is well with my boy today!

Tonight I am having my mil and my sil(the evil meanie, ugh!) over for
dinner. I have a hard time being around my sil so I am way stressed.
Tomorrow morning my dh will be driving my mil back to fla. He will be
gone about six days , so its just me and my kiddos.

wish me luck tonight, I cant wait til its over!

Vonn, big hugs!!

Sox, Crossing fingers that the night goes smoothly.

Fin...congrats! Way to go, a new gallery contact, yay!

Hey everyone!

I feel like the technology gods are unhappy with me. My computer is still in the shop, yesterday my home phone quit working, and then my tv went out a few hours later. It turns out that there was an area wide problem, but they did not know that when I called about the phone. So they had me unplugging and unscrewing things from my router and recharging the battery. None of that worked. Eventually my tv came back on but not the phones. They were able to get it working about an hour later from their computers. In the meantime, I dropped my cell phone and the back fell off and the battery popped out. Luckily, it was okay. Well ,you can see what kind of day I had yesterday. I absolutely HATE dealing with the tech people on the phone. A friend suggested I need to have a techology exorcism conducted.

Vonn -- Just wanted to let you know that I am thinking about you.

Jenn -- Congrat's!

Soxmom -- Good Luck!

Wiz -- Sounds like this job was not all that great. Good luck in your search!

Well, I need to get to work.

Vonn - Sorry to hear about the hepatitis. I am assuming you had the liver function panel done and they may be referring to hepatitis as "an inflammation of the liver" as opposed to viral hepatitis (which is still an inflammation, just caused by the virus). I will pray that it is the former, not the latter. And, don't worry, I went through that scare about a year ago. Long story short, mine was due to a flare as opposed to anything else. Sometimes an inflammation within the body can cause changes in your liver function tests. Medications can do this as well, thus the reason so many of us get regular liver function tests. Hang in there!

I've been busy with work, school, DBF, DDs, etc., etc. and haven't been on much. I also overdid it on Monday and ended up down all day yesterday. I didn't even work on my essay that is due today. I have until midnight to post it. YIKES!!!! No, I just have to edit it to get rid of some words as it is too long and working on my closing paragraph.

I start my self-paced independent anthropology class today. I have to show up for the 1st day (today) and then I am on my own. Well, kind of.

I will catch up on everyone's posts later. I just wanted to pop in real quick.

Have a great day everyone!

Morning all! Well, the landscapers are done but not after being stung a bunch of times by bees. I now have a bee bed in the ground that is massive! Sheesh, save a little on the landscaping and it all goes to the bee killer. He'll be here between 1-2pm. He's not happy the mulch went down on the bees but he'll deal with it. He said he's done this for 20 years and if he has to put on his bee suit we are in big trouble! I pray he doesn't have to. Apparently when the bees go in the ground it can get really big. UGH

Vonn, please let us know what you find out.

Trish to you too

Barb, sheesh, what's taking them so long? hope they get it fixed soon.

Wiz, did you go to NIU yet?
