Ah....my ear! I was standing to close to the dang whistle blower! I hear ringing. Maybe it is FG's phone going off! What's it doing over here on this thread?

Oh well! Pizza! What are all these little white balls?

(Flicks em' over on Nap's pizza!)

Judy? Where you at?

*pulling hamburger out of pocket*

Eat up, Twiffy, lots of good stuff on there for you!

*flicking foreign objects back onto Terffy's plate*

hi troops,

sorry for the delay. i was having log in problems which our dear Nappy fixed for me.

today was a good day.
had an appt this am.
met my friend for lunch. the one that didn't call me. i ended up apologizing to her because i was only thinking of me and my feelings.

she's had so much going on. any sane person would have trouble dealing with it all. jessica, her dd, the engaged one and moving away one, came to lunch with us. it was so good to see her, to visit and wish her well. i knew her since she was in diapers.

then i ran a few errands and came home. it was hot today, 90 and i was feeling it. as usual i couldn't sleep.

have to be out early tomorrow. i'm due for my labs. still on the methotrexate. still have the edema in my foot but it's much better. not nearly as much pain. i start the radiation next wk. so that will be a new chapter.

hope all's well with you guys.
twerp, thanks for the puter help.

Any time, dweeb.

There's Judy! Will be thinking of a smooth next week for ya!

Great to know that Nappy is good for something!

(Feeds burger to dog. I feel like Chinese tonight.)

Im glad you had a day with less pain Judy. I will be thinking of you
next week when you begin radiation.

Ya want I should smack her for that comment, Judy? It really wouldn't be any trouble!

Have a good day Judy and check in when you can. Wish I could give you a hug in person, but this will just have to do for now.





Oh, what the heck~~ AMN?????



Sometimes I just CAIN'T help myself..

HOLY Ca-ar-ar-ar-ar-ar-arp!!!!!

*rubbing haid*

I'm okay! Great trip, nice fall.

Why you little...

C'mere!

Hey Judy! How are you today?

today so, so

i'm very tired. my feet hurt and my leg is killing me.
i went to the dr this am for labs etc.

my BP was up but she's not worried. i still have the pitting edema in my leg/foot. i'm going to take a diuretic for a wk with supplemental KCL (potassium).

that could also be why my BP is up. my weight is stable.
but my legs really feel weaker. i used my walker today.
she also said that about 2 wks after i start the radiation i'm going to get major fatigue. maybe i should make a big pot of chili before then and freeze it all.

i'm thinking of setting up the couch to sleep just like i did for cathy. this kid next door screams in the afternoon. also, at nite i can hardly sit in my recliner because my leg hurts so bad. maybe laying on the featherbed on the couch would be better. can't hurt to try.

she also thinks some of my leg pain may be from my back. she's going to call the pain dr and speak to him. i really don't want to do roids so it looks like i'm heading for another round of injections. and she's thinking that some of the edema could also be from the previous round of shots; releasing into my body.

oh joy. I HATE ALL THIS. ok i'm better. i'm calm. i'm going to bed.
