Hello everyone,
just got back from a massage...it was hard to get up...so cozy and warm, so relaxed:rolleyes:
Wiz, hope you're doing okay on your second day...we're all thinking of ya!
Sandy, you're a gem of a daughter...and Jim's a gem of a SIL, too...:hug:
Kitty, dogs are better in bad weather. If the power goes out, they're bigger, so there's more of them to keep me warm!! Hope you all survive this bad weather...

The leg spasms finally seem to be letting up a little. I'm not being awakened in the middle of the night by them anymore, and I seem to be walking a bit better. I just can't stand for very long before they start aching. This has been going on for months now. How long are these types of things supposed to last, anyhoo?:confused:

Well, I'm off soon to take MIL to the glaucoma specialist. Her pressure was through the roof last month...surgery might be on the horizon if it hasn't gone down.:(

Have a great afternoon, all!:)

Time to uncross my fingers ~ have to break down and call the doc tomorrow. My sniffles that haven't subsided appear to be approaching sinus infection level. I'd say Defcon 3 in that department. Yippee Skippee. Have been doing well too, but getting ye olde signs. Even used some massive decongestants the past month or so, and it hasn't touched it.

Have a meeting tonight, so gonna rest a bit before. Take care all. :hug::hug:

I survived! The prep like to have got me though...avoid the pineapple flavor if you ever have to have a colonoscopy!:eek: Everything else went peachy. No problems spotted and I'm good to go for 10 years.

Kelly, we are hearing that 3-4 inches of snow is possible on Thursday. Our temp today was 6 yes 6... this morning. I just pray it doesn't sleet or rain. No one here knows how to drive in it.

Jackie, I hope you are feeling ok after the accident. :hug:

Hope everyone has had a good day!

Pam -- Congrat's on the good results.:) I almost feel cheated that I did not have the fill colonoscopy after doing the prep. :rolleyes: I am scheduled for another one in May 2011.

I am not spending too much time on the computer as it is not too comfortable for me to sit here. but I am quickly reading all of your posts.

We are expecting 5-7 inches of snow tomorrow tonight/Thursday with a lot if wind and drifting. I plan on going to the grocery store tomorrow to stock up fruits and veg's before the storm. I also have an appointment for a haircut tomorrow afternoon. I am just glad we are not back to school yet. Classes start on Monday.

OMG!!!!! We have the house to ourselves!!! But we're too tired to do anything about it! LMAO

Chris and Bre took Granny out with them. She almost didn't go but Chris told her to get dressed and go. hahaha We're expecting 7-9 inches of snow, yes, snow the next couple of days so she wont be going out much. Plus, the car is at the shop AGAIN. No transportion either.

I woke at 4:15 am before the alarm was supposed to go off (5:45) so I was exhausted today. I'm hitting the sack here soon so you all have a good Wednesday cause I should turn in and hopefully get much-needed sleep tonight.

It was one of those weird dreams that woke me. This guy was standing in a room with me and pulled out a saber type sword and said he was going to cut me up. That woke me up pronto. :p :rolleyes: So I tossed and turned until the alarm went off.

WOW! That would have freaked me out too. They say dreams are our sub-conscious telling us something.

So, I looked up a few key words. :p

To dream that you have been killed or going to be killed, suggests that your actions are disconnected from your emotions and conscience. Alternatively, the dream refers to drastic changes that are happening in your life. There is a characteristic that you want to get rid of or a habit that you want to end within yourself. Killing represents the killing off of old parts of yourself and old habits.

The sword can be seen as a phallic symbol and thus represent masculine power. Identify with the possessor of the knife and discover if you are repressing angry feelings. The knife is also reminiscent of the ‘sword of truth’ that cuts through falsity and ignorance, or the will to cut away false desires.

It can also represent the male, ahem, ummmm, ... :ROTFLMAO: :ROTFLMAO: :ROTFLMAO: :ROTFLMAO: :ROTFLMAO: :ROTFLMAO:

hey Wiz ... maybe it means that the 'other' job is the one for you!! that this one is going to 'kill' you emotionally .. wasn't this the one with being on your feet alot?? and the other one was more 'up your alley' ...?? ... but, Sandy sounds better ..

sorry - I'm pooped too .. I wrote a letter to my lawyer - mailed it yesterday, he got it this morning! :eek: .. then called at 10a .. I didn't plug the phone in until noon, called ... and still waiting ... but, the phone is now unplugged to get some sleep ...

suppose to see my PCP for follow-up on Friday ... but, with the snow storm coming around the corner .. don't know ...

I'm going to call it a night, too ... exercising and eating very good .. and have already dropped 5 lbs ... 25 to go ... back to my Army weight in 1983 ..

sabimax 01-06-2010 06:32 AM

Vonn, weight wise, I gotta find a way. Has anyone here just gained during no different eating habit or moving habit?? maybe since 40 my metabolism took a crash... anyhow... I have always been overweight since my first pregnancy... and few month ago was down 5 ish from norm.... now have had a few bouts of constipation stuff that is not normal for me... and just currently went up like 5-7 lbs in few weeks...ugggg

I will check with doctor, gotta make apt for pap test, and soon enough due this year for colonoscopy... which is good as I am a bit wondering about the constipation stuff going on... and will discuss the back unusual uncomfy feeling I keep getting... I mean I have had the back issues with spasm and pain... but lately also if laying down on back like relaxation pose in yoga... the lower back is too uncomfy feeling... Hard to explain.. can not stay in laying down ....

anyhow, just wondering if the back could be something other...

I will check it out... colonoscopy... no fair who said they are clear for 10 years!! I had to start five years ago after my sis had the colon cancer.. and although no polyps have to have one every five years. My other sis was told now that dad too had it, should do every 3 years :eek: but rather prevention then late finding something!!

hugss all, heading to work, sarah

Good morning everyone!

Pam - Many people don't know how to drive in that weather here either. They get crazy. Glad your colonoscopy went well.

Debbie - After my 1st documented major flare, it took me a year to overcome all the stuff that was going on with my left leg. I still have trouble with it off and on but nothing like it was. Hang in there!:hug:

Sandy - Glad your mom went with Chris. That was so nice of Chris to do that and good for the both of them to spend that time together.

Wiz - That was quite the dream!!! Glad it was just a dream.:p

Vonn - Congrats on the 5 pounds! That's awesome!

Fin - Hope you sinuses start clearing up soon.:hug:

Barb - Hope you are feeling better today.:hug:

Sarah - Hope you start feeling better as well. :hug:

Hi everyone else! Hope you are doing well too. Have a good day all!:hug::grouphug:
