Happy Veteran's Day to all who were/are in the service...

Frank, your flags brought back a really funny memory...my DD, back when she was about 13 or so, was watching VH1 or MTV with me, no, it was The Real World...
anyway, she saw a girl with a POW-MIA shirt on...she asked me, "Who's Powmeeuh?" :confused:
The girl didn't have a clue...so I told her what POW-MIA stood for...sheesh...

I can remember when she was around 16, and I was listening to her girlfriends and her playing Catchphrase, where you give a clue to a word to your team and they have to guess it...
anyway, one of her teammates gives this clue, "It was a war in the sixties..."
my DD guessed, "World War II?":eek:
so much for getting a good education...how she got a 3.99 in college, I'll never know...and now she teaches math, no less!

(((((Sarah)))))

Sarah, Sorry you are having such a bad day. Stress can can make all of your symptoms worse. :hug:

Kelly, Your lunch sounds good. I had chicken and rice soup from our local Thai restaurant. I have enough left over for lunch tomorrow

I am supposed to be at my neuro's office for my 6th month appointment, but they called and canceled this morning. They said he was stuck in Colorado because of snow. I checked the weather channel site and they did not show any snow or delays in Denver or Colorado Spring airports. Hmmm. Not that I don't believe him.:rolleyes: Now I have to wait longer to hear the results of my MRI. They said they could not schedule any new appointments until they know when he is coming back. Since it is getting closer to the end of the semester, it will be hard for me to get to his office. Plus it usually takes months to get an appointment with him. I asked if he could call me at least when he gets backs to go over my results. I was all ready to have the LDN discussion with him today.

I think I will go take a nap.

Sarah - I hope your day goes better. :hug:

Barb - Sorry to hear about your trouble with the neuro. Hopefully you will be able to get an appointment sooner than a few months.:hug:

Kelly - Glad your lunch went well. You lunch and your dinner sound so good!!! We're having red beans and rice.:o DD17 loves them and since she has been away since Friday morning that is what I am going to make as a special homecoming dinner.

Sarah,
You seem to be in a true funk...((((Sarah)))).

Wish I could be there to help you...know that we all care about you...

Not much to update today. Been a slug day here with a couple of naps. Did manage to make chili for dinner, tho. :)

:grouphug::grouphug:

Hello all~ Well, I had my Rheumy appt today and he changed a med and upped another. Hope it does some good. He wants to see my next scan and may put me on daily injections. OY!

It's rainy and cold here and the Dr said if I really want to feel better, I should move to Arizona. I really like him, but told him I wasn't paying him to do ''stand up''. He laughed!

I still feel lousy, but tomorrow is another day.

Then tomorrow DH and I have check ups w/the gastro. OY again!

Kay~ So funny about Gandolf. I am getting a mental pic that is burned in my HAID now! So glad the old boy got some. too funny! You ka rack me up woman!

To all our Veteran's~ I salute you and thank you so much for your service. I called my older brothers today to thank them, too. *20 and 24 yrs served by them*

God Bless America!

Hi! Well I had a message on my voice mail at school rescheduling my appointment for tomorrow. I don't know why I decided to check it a little while ago; I never check it in the evening. I don't know why they just called me there. They do have my home number too. They seem to think that patients do not have jobs or lives and we can just come whenever they command. So I had to cancel a hair appointment (can't get in now until Dec 3rd -- grrr -- I am going to have poofy hair with grey roots), and I have one and 15 minutes hour to get there after my classes ( it takes a little over an hour) and then I need to get back right away as the department has a meeting scheduled with our deans at 4:00. They only schedule these about every two years or so it would not look good if I miss it.

I am glad I am getting in so quickly, and kind of nervous about it. Now I am thinking that they would not have fit me in so quickly if my MRI did not show any new lesions. I know; I worry too much about things I cannot really control.

Hope everyone is having a good night. I am off to grade some more tests. I can't wait until Thanksgiving break. We get a week off. Maybe I will actually clean my house then.:OuttaHere:
