Been busy today getting ready for my trip. I leave early Saturday morning. I am hoping the weather and flights are decent.

Checking out all the moles on my body. (tysabri post). I really did not need one more thing to worry about regarding ty.

Vonn, Hope you are ok. I know Wisconsin got hit pretty bad yesterday with all of the snow.

Suzy, Really liked your post. We all have those days.

Glad I do not have to deal with "Aunt Flo" anymore. Never called it that either. I think we called it the"curse" (Catholic School thing). Now, we need an appropriate name for hot flashes

I hope everyone has a nice Valentine's Day I can't believe I just put that icon on here. It is so not me What is MS doing to me?

I probably won't be checking in much, if at all, while I am gone. I think I need some computer free days.

lol, I know EXACTLY how you feel!

it's SOOOO exciting!

two years ago, I lived in a rental shack, and the village "pipe" water failed OFTEN.

so, I had a stash of gallon bleach bottles filled with tap water, which I'd hold overhead in the shower (it's a LOT warmer HERE, lol! so I can DO that, wouldn't wanna in snow-country though!)

it was sort of a sponge bath, standing...

felt like a pioneer in the Wild Wild West!

but ya gotta WASH daily, or ya start to MARINATE here!!!!
