Yes Barb...just the stirring of daily life...and playoff football:rolleyes:
Sarah, sorry about those teeth issues...that stinks! Hope it's resolved soon...

DH and I had a good Sunday...he painted my study's ceiling, then we went researching gas firelogs again...had a nice dinner, then watched football games and Golden Globes...
I feel so wonderfully grateful for my life...I need to read that statement every time I feel low. I really have a wonderful life, no offense to George Bailey and all...

Hope everyone has a great week...;)

Morning all :)

Been MIA this weekend since we went out with friends Friday night and it took almost two days to recover. :eek:

The dinner was fun. It was a guy singing old sinatra songs, as well as some bing crosby and dean martin. The guy was really good, so that was a good time. Then we went to a quiet hole-in-the-wall bar to talk some more. It was a long night, but enjoyed it immensely.

So now trying to get back into the swing of things. Take care everyone. :grouphug::grouphug:

I've been MIA. I just read here and think about responding. Lately everything is too overwhelming. I'm really not doing well dealing with life. I am so depressed even though I'm on an AD. I really don't want to try to find a new one - this one was working before. I'm scare of weaning off this and trying something else that might or might not work and might or might not have bad side effects.

I have such a bad attitude about everything that I don't like being around me! I keep trying to figure out how to pull myself out of this funk, but haven't come up with any answers yet. I know I probably just need to force myself to get some things accomplished and then I will feel better about myself, but I haven't had any luck convincing myself to get off my butt and do that!

I got a new kitten about 1-1/2 weeks ago. She is really sweet and cute. I really thought that would help. She makes me smile, but I'm still stuck in this bad mood. I found her at the humane society and she is a beautiful Siamese. They said she was chocolate point, but the more research I do, I think she is a blue point. Her name is Sapphire. Those who are on FB have seen pics because I can upload them right from my cell phone. I will have to work on getting a pic on here for you guys.

That's it for now. Hugs to you all.

Good afternoon everyone. Been having computer problems ever since we downgraded our cable services but I think it's okay for now. Had to run a couple of scans yesterday that took f-o-r-e-v-e-r. I have McAfee Virus Protection so that should cover me. I'm still looking into a laptop. I'd hate for this desktop to bite the dust and leave me with nothing.

DS26 stopped by today. He had been to get a haircut and was on this side of town. He went to Zaxby's and brought us lunch. It was so nice....but now I am so full and want to take a nap! :o

Holly, I'd love to see a pic of your new kitten. I love her name.

Not doing much today. I'm still in my jammies!! :p It's pretty and warm here today but rain and colder temps will be here by Thursday.

Ya'll have a good Monday! :grouphug:

Hey all! Jim and I are doing fine. Mom's good too. I need to call the senior services to get her enrolled so she can get out a couple days a week. I am also looking at homes, just window shopping, that have inlaw apartments built in. I priced some contractors and they want $30G+ to just put a studio above the garage. Sheesh, nothing is cheap.

Anyway, that is down the line. I asked mom if she wants to rehab and be able to live alone and her response was "What? Are you wanting me to move?" Ugh. I told her no but if she is able to live alone there really isn't any reason for her not to. I think she's lonely. Thanks mom for that guilt trip. hahaha So, an inlaw apartment will be a priority in the next home.

Have a good day everyone. :grouphug:

Holly -- :hug: Sorry you have been going through a rough time. While I understand your reluctance to try a new AD ( I hate trying any new med) you should probably let your doctor know what is going on. Maybe it is time to try something new or even going to a therapist so you can talk about how you are feeling.

Been doing a few chores around the house, watching Clean House on Style TV, and getting ready for the next few days of classes. I fee really neat after watching a few of those shows. I am about ready for a lie down too. I need some sun!!!

Hey all...Happy MLK day to all...remember the changes he helped bring to our world...
I got called to do volunteer work at a local food pantry from Organizing for America...so I went for 2 hrs. today. Stupid me worked out beforehand so by the time my shift was over my legs were spastic and mad at me...what was I thinking? Two hrs. sorting donated food would have been more than enough exercise for the day...I'll learn to use my noggin some day:rolleyes:
Holly, maybe you do need to see someone...if the meds aren't doing it, then some talk-time might be in order...sorry you're still feeling so blue:hug::hug:

Sandy, I wish you were Amish and we could have a MIL-room raising party for ya!!

Well, hope everyone has a good afternoon/evening!!

Holly, sorry you feeling blahhhhssss, as others said maybe someone to talk to, at least talk to your doctor. I know the feeling of new meds...hugssss

Sandy, good luck no the new house idea!!

hey all, hugsssssssss

just chilling, a hard part of work today, giving someone a Performance review that the review is not good....ugggg and then someone else put in two week notice I think.. we will see fun fun on the being the boss!!

well hugsss might head out for a walk, hugss,sarah

Why do antibiotics make me feel so hungry!? I stepped on the scales this weekend, and oh boy. I was doing good until I started that med 11 days ago. I mean I stayed hungry, growling tummy and all. Anyway, now that that is finished I'm left with other side effects of taking antibiotics... some days I feel like ol Don the windmill battling dude (can't think of how to even spell that name today!) :D

:grouphug: to everyone!

I hope we aren't looking at the same MLS listings! :D We want a MIL type suite in our next place. I have a feeling my mom will need to move in with me in the next couple of years. I have been comparing data of middle TN with where we live now and a couple of other places we would like to retire to. It is amazing the cost of living difference!
