Hello ladies.
Cyn I take efexor (sp) every morning along with gabapentin 3 times a day. I take it for my hot flashes and night sweats but efexor is actually an antidepressant. While gabapentin reduces things like leg cramps and restless leg syndrome. Together though they are supposed to control some menopause symptoms. I'm on a low dose so maybe it doesn't affect me the same way. I find myself more tired but I think it's a combination of lots of different things. Goldie, Cyn and Julie?? Dare I say that sounds the the party of the year? It'll be cider, beer and...what for goldie?
Elizabeth Dahhhling, I am so very sorry about your furfriend. We had the same experience last year. We still show pictures of her to everyone. It never seems easier to lose a best friend. (((ED)))
Bernie, pleurisy really sucks! And hurts. With all else going on right now, this is the last thing you need. In the old days they bound your shoulders back to force the lungs to open so that you were able to breath properly. I'm sure nowadays they have a pill for it. Sorry you are having to put up that this. Saying prayers for you.
Aly, sorry about your DB. Hope he recovers well. Prayers for you and your DB. Hope also that I get to meet you in June.
Kath, now your DH too?!! Good lord. Your whole family is down and out. You need a live in nurse or something girl! Chin up it'll get better. And I will happily do your drinking for you!
Julie, I love Turkish Delight. Yum! That boy needs to pull hims pants up. Hims nearly falling out. Drool. Gotta try that drinking game. Almost makes me want to watch the state of the union address.
DorK how you doing honey? {{{huggles}}}
Gotta be at work at 7 so off to my bath now. Night all.
Hugs'n'kisses

Dork it's just nice to see u visit here and u don't have to direct things if u don't remember, cuz I know I forget, when I'm reading I think OHG then I forget when I'm writing.
I was sleeping so nice and woke up cuz of my goofy D,which only makes me more exhausted and I bet I'll be busy at work today again, cuz of the weather and I'm so bitchy I don't think I should talk to anyone today LOL Oh I had a man (not literally) yesterday that did not want to speak to me at all, He wanted the boss --the MAN that owned the company--I trued to tell him he will tlk to him, but I needed all of the info to send to him--He was livid that I would disrespect him so much that he couldn't speak to him right then. Well he was lucky I controlled myself cuz I was livid too--and I ain't pretty when I'm pissed t other people So I hope today is nicer and not as busy. Well we'll see how it goes.

Good morning,
Loungettes!Well, the big snow turned
out to be nothing but a dusting and bit of rain.All that wet has frozen up again.Hi, Katie-Kat! I see
you've taken typing lessons from Silly Sadie!I'm betting the work calls were busy yesterday.Goldie--So sad, so
many missing after that fire.I wonder
if they had an evacuation plan or if the fire was just too fast moving.Such a horrible thing for everyone involved.Did you see where they've brought in airplane
de-icing equipment to melt the ice so they can look for the missing.So scary.Mema--Wow, you are a
busy lady, no wonder one thing got past you!I hear you about the calendar being the life-saver, mine certainly
is.I've been to some yoga classes that
use the blocks and other helpers, great idea in my mind!I know I need the extra help, especially at
first, and it's fun to see progress as you need the blocks less!Mema--ok, got your
alien gender vote logged in!Alien Count Update:

ORLA--why do you
always seem to be overdoing things?Freezing pipe are not good, but freezing pipes in a school are even
worse.BBBBBernie--Yikes!Pleurisy is painful!Wine may not be the best cure, but it must
help!Hope devil sis will be helpful and
not bothersome.Can you play up the sick
card?Wahine--Wow, it is
amazing the gizmos and gadgets that are out there these days!Aly--Praying for
your DB.Julie--you signed up
for a 5K?Good for you!Yup, I did my neck stretches!CynCyn--Another meet
up scheduled, hooray!Yikes, that is
quite a retainer!That guy better be
GREAT!You may find that you do best
taking the Effexor at bedtime.It can
help you get to sleep at night with the sleepiness it can cause. The dry mouth
is a common problem, too, sipping water, chewing gum, sucking on hard candies
can help.Cammy--there are a
lot of young people out there who will not understand tearing the phone off the
wall!Just like they don't understand
the broken record reference.Oooh, YUM!
Julie--the only way
I could watch an Obama speech at any time!Wahine--Will a
Seagrams/Diet Pepsi work for you?I can
do that after work tonight.Praying for
DH.Chevy--tears for you
and your fur baby.Red RH--I took
gabapentin for hot flashes while I was on arimidex, it worked great but it did
make me feel tired.DorKable--'s OK, I
forgot what I asked!So your Dad needs
to behave or be owned by the State? Sounds like a plan to me.And while what he did is considered abusive,
it was his dementia talking, not himself, I'm sure.Still hard to deal with.Glad the move went ok.He may find that he's happier in a more
structured setting.Did you cut just
your bangs or ALL your hair?????? And no apologizing for not addressing
everyone, you've got plenty enough on your plate, we're glad you check in and
let us know you're ok!Cammy--what a
jerk!I would want to say something
stoopid like "I'll tell the boss you want a call.I assume he knows who you are and what your
phone number is by telephathy since you won't give that info to me? "OR, "yes, sir, I am sending this
text:a man wants to talk only to you,
won't give name or phone number,Please
call him ASAP. "Then there is the
trick of hanging up the phone while you are talking, everyone assumes the phone
or the connection is the problem, no one ever thinks you would hang up on
yourself.Alien Count Update:

Oh wow Sue, touching the ground! I was thinking touching toes. No way could I do what you posted, prolly not even wif a block. Would fall right over! Have a voondavah time with Maddy. And glad, sooper glad....you feeling bettah!
Lara, Lara, Lara.....you need to STOP over doing it? Or are you trying to beat Dork in surgeries! Need to tie you down girl.
Kat, good job for keeping up the alien count. I am partial to goils, but I will go wif boy, so Bernie can have some good help on the farm. I'll help drink for you and Bernie. I hope DD2 is feeling better, and would like to say the same about DD1, but I'm afraid that won't be for awhile. When do you get results for your back, also hoping your DH is feeling better! Good luck on the scope tomorrow for him. Good grief Charlie Brown!
Oh no Bernie, not what you need! I don't think I have ever had that, and I think it is quite painful??? Oh, I hope you feel better soon.
Alyson, hoping for good news on your brother, and glad you will get to go and visit him. And a trip to Ireland in your future....SWEET!
Thanks for the reminder to stretch meese neck Julie.
Lucy, dat sucks about the X, and now you have to have a lawyer, dayem! How sweet that Jodi wants matching tats wif her mom. Do you know what and where. Uck the X! I didn't take Effexor, so can't help with that. I think Kat might have tho.
Oh shoot, just read Cami's update on ED's Lacee. Elizabeth Dahling, I so sorry you had to have her put down. So so sorry. Gentle hugs, and may you find peace with all of the sweet memories you have of her. (((((Chev)))))
Nope, can't see any ditzy Cam, you are safe. I get weirded out with those nuclear tests, with they would just call it something else.
LOL @ the drinking game Julie.
Red, maybe you can let Cyn know how much Effexor you take. It was offered to me, but I declined. I am a beer drinker too, but will drink just about anything! Crossing my fingers for your appointment tomorrow and will say a prayer too, for the added protection.
Dort, so where did they move your dad to? Some kind of assisted living? Will he be able to bisit your mom? I sorry about this, but that has to be a relief for you. Can you tell us what he did? And I so happy to see your purdy face here. How is your baby girl doing?
Sawry you got the customer from hell Cami, I hate when that happens. Doesn't happen to me very often, but once in awhile. I actually had to block one customer. She ordered the wrong thing, and said we changed her order and it was our fault!
NM, I did not see that about the de-icing on the nursing home. I can't hardly even think about, just makes me sick. That just has to be one of the most horrid ways to die. You are doing good on the alien count too. Love your comments for Cami to use.
I got a wonderful call yesterday from Julie, to confirm our plans. She has the sweetest voice and a very strong accent, that I was not expecting. I guess because you live here, is why I wasn't expecting it. So the girls are gonna pick me up at the airport, we'll go out for a bite to eat and then they will take me to my dads. Isn't that awesome? I am so very happy that they are gonna make that drive to see me! I can't wait. And it looks like the weather will warm up by then. Dolly tonight, then taking this happy ass to the islands, beery early in da morning!

I ditto what everyone said....everything was purrfect and you all addressed everyone, so I am taking the easy way out! LOL, Just have a minute anyway.
Lori, I sure hope your flight tomorrow is NOT cancelled....well I hope none of your flights are cancelled. Scary with the bad weather hitting so many states. YES< so awesome that Julie and Cyn will pick you up and you all will get to be together and have dinner!! So super! (Not supper, super! lol).
Love the DOTD, NM, sounds soooo good. And yes, Seagrams/Diet Pepsi works too. I actually like both Coke and Pepsi, so whichever is on sale is what I get. Just missing it since I have not had and likker since Jan 12. Had some champagne though, very little, and this week is cold-turkey! I will have a lot of making up to do.
THANK you all for your prayers for my friend Shirley, she is in rehab now and hopes to be back home by the end of the month. They had "lost" her a couple of times, and she not only had the heart attack but was on ventilator a couple of days (no memory of it thank God), and then they found out she had A-Fib also. So this was a lucky wake-up call to her, and she is walking now, which she could hardly even stand up for more than a minute before this happened. Scares me since she is my age, but had done too much sitting down, and no exercize. BUT now another friends DH just had chest pains and went to one hospital and is being transferred to another hospital right now. They live in Banning, near Beckers. I was a bridesmaid (brides matron? lol) at their wedding about 4yrs ago or so. Sure hope he is ok, too young for that.
Will check in latah and see if Lori's flights are still as scheduled. And Cyn, omg that is a horridly high retainer!!!! Haven't we thrown that ex in the swamp by now??? NO, that would hurt your kids, so we have to keep him around. But someone needs to smack some sense into him....suing you...that is awful!!
Hugssssssssssssssss,
Kat

We are getting snow, just a dusting, but already covered the streets, sidewalks, etc. Prob is, it will not get above freezing for a couple more days, and down to 8 or so tonight, so just hoping it doesn't end up icy. Gotta go further south than here, Lara! In fact, waaaaaay further south, as below us in AL, they are getting more snow. It is prolly very cold in Ireland right now, too..... We all need to move in with Cyn and Julie!

Yes, my grandma (from England) was sent there when her kids were still teens. She contracted it from teaching kindergarten on Oahu, and was ripped from her family (my dad, his 5 siblings, and her husband, who divorced her while she was in exile). I never got to meet her, but she did not end up disfigured as some of them were. When we went to Kalaupapa, on Molokai about 2-3 yrs ago we met some residents (you have to be with a guide) who remembered her fondly, as she taught art there. Such sad stories. She did get to meet my older brother when he was a baby, and she was sent back to Oahu, but they had to have a wall between them, she couldn't even touch her grandson.

Oh those flowers are SO pretty, Julie! Thanks for brightening up the HTL!
Well, I got the call about my MRI, and to add to my deteriorating spine and degenerative disks, I now have 3 bulging disks. Wonder if that super hard fall onto my back on the treadmill deck could have caused the bulging disks? So can't see my spine dr till end of Feb (his busy schedule) and can't see the dr about the osteoporosis till he is back in his office. Sucks. (But it wasn't the "c" word, at least)

how weird is it when we are happy its bulging discs!
