Sarah, hope those are only temporary side effects while you get used to the med.

Sandy, Hoping they get to the bottom of things with your mom. I think the hearing test is a good idea.

Everyone,

~~~~~~

Even though I was tired last night, didn't fall asleep until around 4. Ick! Hoping that I can get my sleep schedule back on track after the past few days.

Did manage to work a little on the office upstairs, but still have more to do. Crossing fingers I can get this stuff done.

So waiting for the ye olde coffee to brew right now. Hoping everyone has a good day.

Hi All! Just gave a exam in my class (all essay). Now I have to grade them. Been having some problems with one eye -- largish floater. I have had little ones before, but this is really annoying. Plus lights were bothering my eyes yesterday. I went to doctor yesterday and had it checked so I could not really see for the rest of the day. The good news is that they are generally harmless and should eventually disslve, plus there was no sign of optic neuritis. The bad news -- I am getting old! I guess this is another sign of aging. Lovely!

Kelly -- Don't you just love throwing things away?

Jenn -- Had another sllepless night in Illinois too.

Sarah -- I only took cymbalta for 5 days. I could not handle the nausea either.

hi all ...

been busy trying to keep my mind off of all the craziness (with the lawyer and tests .. liver biopsy this thursday) ..

so - I mailed out a bunch of quilts ... 13 so far this week ... and fiendishly making up more to send out ...

it's so fun to surprise others with little things that I make .. the more I give away - the less I have .. so the MORE I can make!! I love this circle!!

off I go ...

Hi everyone. Lots of craziness on this end. I think I'm ready for a padded room.

dh is out of town. MIL is in rehab center trying to heal her broken leg, shoulder and arm. DS Mark has been called back to active military duty. He leaves on Thanksgiving day, and my poor sweet beautiful grandma who I brag about all the time is now dying. She started going down hill since she had a stroke in march.

We called in Hospice yesterday. They come right to the house. Even though I'm 50 miles away, I have been spending a few hours everyday with her. She is still aware and knows me and talks so that is still a blessing.


CALGON TAKE ME AWAY!!!

Wow Beth! You certainly have a lot of stress going on in your life. Hospice is great. They really helped out in the last three months of my dad's life. Hang in there!

Aw, Beth...so sorry to hear that you're dealing with all of that...

How come bad sleeping for so many? Sarah, I pm'd you...rest up after that awful time...

I'm under the weather today...got a tummy bug. So I'm taking it easy.

Had preop testing done this morning. Had to go back later for a nasal MRSA test that the pcp wasn't clear about on the order...

After weeks of doing dishes by hand, my dishwasher got fixed! The mother board went bad...so glad to have it back before Thanksgiving, when the kids & spouses are all going to be home.

It's kind of icky out...but not as bad as the South...Kelly, hope you all don't get flooded out...

Well, I'm watching DIY network, and resting up, drinking ginger ale, and hoping I'll feel better by the time DH comes home this evening.
Have a good afternoon, all.
And thanks for startig the new thread, Trish!

's for you, Beth. I know you've probably said it, too, but ENOUGH ALREADY!! You have more than your fair share to deal with. I hope things settle down for you soon. Is it for certain that DS will go back to active duty? I know you said he had a doctor's appointment to go to first.

My Dad had hospice and it was a blessing. They're wonderful people.

It's been raining steadily here all day and boy is it ever windy! The cover on my grill blew off....and it was on there pretty securely, too. I have wind chimes hanging on the front porch and they've been clinging and clanging all day. Call me crazy but I just love weather like this. Curl up on the couch in a flannel gown and thick socks and watch movies type weather!
