Renee, Yep, you win the crazy house award. Colds, dog-sitting. Hope you get a chance to rest.

Carolyn, hope your time at the island will be a good one and not stormy. Sounds like it could be fun.

~~~~~~

Woke up to sun today! After the gloominess, it's so bright outside. So sipping my coffee right now and trying to wake up.

Hope everyone has a great day today!

Hey all! Jim and I will be out today at the VA. The doctor and I spoke last night. We are thinking about having Jim go back on the macrobid, possibly bactrim, haven't decided yet. I told the doctor it's all on him since he's the specialist. haha Jim had a reaction to both meds but we were thinking that maybe at a low dose he'd do better? The reactions were thrush with bactrim and tummy issues with macrobid. We'll see.

After that, we have some shopping to do. See you tonight! Have a great day!

Hey all! Busy day today for me. I just wrote my list out of what needs to be done today. Lots of errands and housecleaning.

Hope everyone has a good day!

spring greetings ... suppose to get really nice out .. already 52 degrees at 10am!

well, I was told about another job web-search ... and found a few jobs - and one that I really, really like ... working for a monthly newspaper that is a non-profit because it prints out information (and website) for those with disabilities and informs them about what's out there for different programs, etc ..

it's for Assistant Editor: only 25 hrs per week ... and the pay is better than a 40 hr week job! .. .about $350-$500/wk depending on experience etc ... actually was requesting those with disabilities apply!! how cool is that? here's the website if it's okay to post: http://www.accesspress.org/archive/2...this_issue.htm

then I could still work on my quilt program .. and get SSDI (if it would ever kick in) ..LOL

downside (maybe upside) ... would have to move to the Twin Cities area over in Minnesota . ... about 6 hrs from where I am .. (found out there are ALOT of quilt shops that way too!) - talk about a fresh start!

Spring is in the air here finally. There are buds on the trees and the grass is starting to turn green. We actually hit 70 in my backyard last weekend. The fun thing here is that we turn green overnight. The rains started a few days ago and with that in the next week or so one morning we will awaken to a sudden bloom. It's always an amazing thing to see here.

Work is good, but with school I have little time to visit with all of you. Miss our times together....just wanted to check in and say hi and 's

Since it's nice today, going to give my boss her painting. Supposed to rain the rest of the week (so they say), and I don't want it to get wet. Really hoping she likes it.

I posted a pic of it in the creative corner forum. This is only the third painting I have ever given away. I feel kinda sad giving it up, but that was my whole point in painting it - LOL.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Vonn, that job sounds kinda cool. If it's on the up and up - go for it!!!!!!

GJ, I love your description of spring. Thanks for checking in.

Sandy, hope Jim's appointment goes well. Hope you both have a good time shopping.

TK, hope you get done what you need to.

Hi everyone!

Vonn -- Good luck in your job search!

Sandy -- Hope they figure out how to help Jim.

Renee -- You are a brave woman -- taking care of all of those dogs and dealing with a sick hubbie.

Carolyn -- did you neuro or pcp prescribe LDN?

Fin, Tk, and GJ --

Hope everyone is having a good day. It was supposed to be sunny here today, but it looks like it is going to storm. I hope these storms are not as bad as the ones over the weekend.

I want to go buy some flowers for outside, but I think maybe I better hold off on that until the weather is better.

My boss liked the painting, even before she realized I was the artist. I love surprising people.

Now thinking it's about dinner time 'cuz tummy is growling. Just need to pry hubby away from his work, LOL.

[QUOTE=barb02;278593]Hi everyone!



Carolyn -- did you neuro or pcp prescribe LDN?

QUOTE]

My neuro RX my LDN and I get it from Skips Pharmacy. It's really inexpensive for a 3 month supply, abot $15.00 a month with the shipping included. Any doctor can RX it. Check with all your docs to see if any of them will RX it for you!
