    I am 5'2", everyone tells me thats short

    I do talk to all my pets even the duck

    I have several cats.  Have not bought a canvas grocery bag yet but do a lot of green things and also recycle the plastic bags

    The next person collects sea glass

    Nope, but I do collect glass sea creatures!  DH gave me a seahorse before my bilateral!

    I talk to the cat next door, and to the dogs across the street.  I also talk to my plants, but they don't answer back!  

    I'm 5'4", so not short, although my grandmother was 4'11"--her favorite phrase was "power has no correlation to height!"

    The next person is starting a new hobby this summer.

    I recycle the plastic bags, we use them for taking stuff to outings, but I also use them as "poop bags", after I scoop the cat litter, I put it in these plastic bags, and then twice a week, the bags go in the trash!   

    yes, I have TWO cats, and they are just wonderful!  They got me through chemo!  Now they are back to being 'aloof', but during chemo, Thor would sleep with me at night, and even Spike, too.  

    takingcare, of course I have conversations with my pets!  They are the only ones who listen sometimes!

    I'm short...I'm 5'2"...  no to sea glass, what is that? 

    No new hobbies, well, I did start making beaded jewelry... I took a class at Michaels, and I bought some supplies to get started, but I haven't really made anything yet, except for the projects I made during my class.

    The next person is going to have to switch pain relievers.  I will, because the IBuprofin makes me break out in HUGE BRUISES all over my legs!  What can I take that won't do this, but will be an excellent pain reliever??  I have tried Advil but it doesn't help with pain...must be a placebo.  The same with Tylenol. .  any ideas?

    false on switching pain relievers.  Harley, what about naproxen? It works good. Sea glass is glass that has been in the ocean so long that the sand has smoothed it all out.  Comes in all colors and I do collect it.

    I do have new hobbies, sewing and latch hooking rugs.

    Next person has got the next coming weekend already planned

    The next person is gorgeous

    Harley44 Member Posts: 2,126

    Spar2,  what is the brand name of Naproxen?  There are SO many, I get them all mixed up.  I don't like the idea of taking Aleve, since you can't take any more pain meds. ALL day... the pain would come back, but I wouldn't be able to do anything about it.

    no plans this weekend.

    False... it has been 8 months since chemo was over, and my hair is STILL just TWO inches long!  It sticks out all over, so I kind of look like Bozo.  It is too short to even try to style it, or pull it back off my forehead, so I just look all disheveled, all the time!

    The next person has healthy ideas on munchies...

    The aleve and naproxen is all basically the same.  Will the dr. order you something better for pain? such as tramadol?

    I do have some healthy ideas on munchies but prefer the fattening unhealthy snacks like snickers, ice cream, cake.  No wonder i am fat.  One healthy snack is to peel a banana, dip it in strawberry preserves, then crunched nuts and freeze it.

    the next person has had botox or lip enhancement done.

    I have beeen sick since last Thursday! It started with a sore throat thingie... all upper respiratory. I called off work Friday, slept Saturday and felt lots better on Sunday. By Monday night at work, I was sick again. I ended up leaving early tonight and I'm getting myself to the doctor in the morning. I think I have strep throat. My throat is so swollen I can barely swallow and it feels like someone is dragging razor blades across it. YUCK! I need antibiotics!
