well this sore painful stitch in my back area on the right turns out to be another UTI, hope Jim's visit if more positive than mine was

Got it Frank! Thanks.

Sorry about the UTI. YUCK!!! I hope you feel better soon.

Tried to take a nap, but couldn't fall asleep. Ugh! anyone else have this problem? Oy Vay!

Plus side - got more done today than I have all week. Yipee!!

Frank, Sorry to hear about the UTI

Barb, Glad you finished up the last syllabus.

TK, cool beans on the OHG donation. That is pretty cool

OK - I've read six pages and I'm still as confused as ever!!! So, Joelle, don't even try it! Just jump right in 'cause I'm going to have to, too!!

I have been sleeping 5-6 hours a day for some reason. I've never napped this much in my life! Fin, I can relate to your fatigue. I did some laundry and straightened up a little and I was completely exhausted. And I can still go to bed between 9-10 PM! Craziest thing I've ever experienced. I hope it ends soon 'cause I don't like sleeping my days away.

I just learned that my neighbor (he is in his mid 40's) has ALS. I was talking with his wife out in the yard the other evening and she said he's not taking it very well. I gave her this website address and told her that when he feels up to it to have a look. I saw him out in the yard cutting grass and it was taking him a very long time - I know he just wants to do what he can while he can. They have gone to FL this week to stay at the beach. So sad.

I'm excited this week - I got my LTD and SSDI all straightened out so I can begin putting my budget together. Won't take long to figure out how I can manage to make 1/3 of what I was used to making cover all the bills!! It can't!! And I'm not gonna worry about it!

Vonn, I am so glad you're settled in your new place. We're still waiting for pics!

Tricia, I think it's great what you're doing for OHG. I remember receiving things from them and it was SO special to get those anonymous envelopes in the mail. Just brightened up my day.

I know I've forgotten someone here....I'm still half asleep and fighting the urge to crawl back in bed. Although both cats are sprawled out on it.....they have no need to get up! I keep telling myself to post to this thread but seem to get sidetracked reading all the new posts and then I forget. Story of my life.....

hey all

Fin lately I have not been napping much although yesterday i crashed big time, glad you got some stuff done

everyone happy afternoon

Hey all, just popping in to say we are home. The new urologist seemed OK, not really concerned about Jim's condition saying the same ol' same ol. He didn't even take a specimen since he said Jim's urine looked good. He did offer a med called methenamine which supposedly helps to prevent Uti's but wouldn't you know the manufacturer's quit making it? UGH He also suggested flushing with saline but adding a small amount of betadine to the saline. OK, before you guys freak out...lol I called Jim's regular doc and he told me not to do that just yet. He is going to talk to urology and see if that is indeed a good idea or not. I am thinking this young urologist is an old school kind of doc. I hope he didn't just give Jim an idea that could have hurt him. Maybe urology at Hines will say it's OK or offer a different antiseptic solution?

You just never know these days. I'll hear from Jim's reg doc tomorrow after he talks to urology. So, basically, nothing changes, same old problem. This is the third doc to confirm that this is something Jim will have to live with. I think it may be time to accept huh?

Frank, sorry about your UTI.

Gotta go put Jim in bed. I need to do some cleaning anyway.

Sandy all I can say is good Lord!

Am I invisible? Can anyone see me posting? Sorry I have not addressed everyone individually, trying to minimize time online during the day as we have dial up and I am waiting for job related phone calls.

Talked to ex this evening, he acts like everything is fine, I told him I was seriously concerned for his mental health that he was either bipolar or multiple personality something, he did agree that he thinks he needs to talk to a shrink about it...we'll see...I told him I was moving onwards because I was no longer subjecting myself and the kids to whatever his problem is.

Glad yall are able to work on your artwork...grrrr my stuff is all in storage! I found a daycare for Olivia should I get a job that won't send me to the poor house LOL. And worked out a semi budget...ex hubby offered to help with that as it is his forte, I told him I was good thanks.

Good for you Renee standing up to hubby. It's time he got what goes around comes around.

BTW, I see you! lol

GRRRR applied for 4 jobs....know I did NOT get two of them...this area is having a serious lack of opportunity right now, pray I get one of the other two! I will know for sure by Friday about one of them.
