I hope its ok to ask for roll call today. I gotta got to a far away surgeon at noon today. I been working today out at the farm. I got up so earily that I'm ready for a nap. Isn't that bad. Maybe I can sleep on the way up. My sister- in-law is taking me. This is one town I get lost in. The hospital is very large.

So how are you gals doing on the "D" & "E". I am getting the exercise but I don't know about the weight issue. I really just hate to face the fact I may be gaining. It breaks my heart. If Doc weights me today, I'll fess up & admit it. Well I better go for it will soon be time to get ready. You girls behave now. I'll talk to you later,
Hugs,

Hi Billie and all to follow,

Billie, I hope you get good news today on your recovery. I know you have been overdoing it with your move and all. How is Bear adjusting to the new place?

Well I started my morning with a bowl of cheerios with skim milk. I hate breakfast and it is very hard for me to eat in the morning although I know I should. I am going to try to take one of the dogs for a walk today, my daughter has been walking them and she said the younger one does good on the leash. I have also been exercising in the jacuzzi. It is so nice in the warm water. I can't do alot but I can do crunches, and push ups on the side of the bench. Plus I kick my feet out in front of me. I bet you all thought I was sitting in there with a glass of wine huh??? Well I do that too sometimes...Sue

Sue, your not going to believe this. This trip to the specialist is a four hour around trip. We were almost there, and my cell rings. Doc is in emergency and can't see me. I could of screamed for I don't drive up there, I have my sister in law take me. We turn arould and come back home only to find she is schudling me in two days or the following Monday.

Well I can't go anytime the rest of the month. I am going to tell them I am seeing my GP Thurs. I'll have him look at it. I know they are not going to like that, but this is the second time this has happened to me. I can't just hop on the nearest plane and go up there. I was in a good mood until this.
hugs,
Billie

Hi all~
See? I'm here! I had another injection early this morning, so I spent the night in Rochester last night. It was OK though cuz I had a dinner date. Billie threw the collar away so I can do that.

I haven't checked, but I think my next appointment is the 22nd and that one I'm getting twilight (versed). The doc won't do it under local cuz of the Neuropathy/Arachnoiditis damaging the nerves, and that's causing the "caines" (novocaine/lidocaine) to not work all the time.

I had to be put on another med for my progressing Neuropathy/Arachnoiditis. It was an old heart med and it was doing some stuff to my heart, but the advantages outweigh the disadvantages and I'm OK as long as we don't increase the dosage.

Like I said, sorry I haven't been posting, but I've been investing in Mayo. They changed the name to "The LS Mayo Clinic" now; did you see the news clip? I'm also buying into my dentist's & the oral surgeon's practices. New crowns are falling off because the teeth are decaying under them due to dry mouth which is a side effect from my meds.

So now everyone's kinda updated on some of the reason's I've been busy. There have been some fun reasons too---not all doom and gloom! You guys know ME!!

I just know I need to get back on track here--especially on our virtual walk. Gotta tell ya, I almost busted a gut on the explanation BC!! God luv ya Billie!!! hehehe To me, the way I did the virtual walk, I envisioned all of us goofs getting together wherever I wanted us to be that day--at Wallly's World, the beach, the grocery store, etc. We all would put on our lipstick so we would look like the BABES we all are!!! Then we would all walk together at an appointed time--usually noon Eastern. Just to know everyone was walking at the same time was motivatingl! Everyone walked (or chair danced, or sat and did arm movements) for as long as they could---5 minutes, or 30 minutes. We did it TOGETHER!

OK, I'm done now!

WE WILL DO THIS!! LET'S GET GOING GANG!!!

This means you too: Befuddled2, Megs, Liz, Lizard (same as Liz??), Clouds, Liza, jo55, MrsQ, Rocking4Epilepsy, jingle, Alffe, swift, Vowel Lady, Beti, Junie, Mari, FeelinGoofy, lookingup58, KTM5665, Junie, trekker, kimmydawn and anyone else whose pic I didn't have in the previous post and I may have missed here!!!
I'm REALLY done now!
Hugs,
LS

I've been organizing papers and helping my son look for a house to buy.
Plus getting over a cold.

Cooked a turkey last week- couldn't wait for a holiday.
did make turkey soup, turkey & dumplings, turkey and mashed potatoes, turkey stir fry, turkey divan...

for some reason i feel lighter when I eat poultry vs beef - but I still have a craving for beef sometimes.

Oh Billie, doesn't that just make ya want to spit nails!!! Well hopefully your other doc can look at it and see if you are healing properly. It seems like he should at least have an assisitant to take over on days like today. I know I have seen a physicians assistant after surgery to look at it and make sure everything is ok. Sorry about all of that extra trouble for you right now.

Jan-good to see you back here. Geez Louise looking at all the graphics should at least burn up a few calories---right??? buddy--tell me I'm right??? HA HA...Sue
