    need to get my Insomniacs fix in now, all will be quiet tomorrow. 

    Cami, so sorry. Do you need pocket pals?

    Spookie, TENS machine? Ooh, nasty, nasty machine (or maybe it was the operator). PS changed my PT provider, they put one of things on me. PT walked in, asked how I was doing, when I said ok, she turned it up, set a timer and walked away. I left there crying and in pain for days. Wouldn't go back.

    Sassy, hope you're feeling better.

    Oh Thanks guys, but just what I need a bunch of crazy people in my pocket and I'm trying to act sane--Oh I hat this--I'm not good in these situations, my sister is better so I stand behind her and let her talk.

    OK no communication during the day--sometimes I'm busy and I can't but I don't like the feeling that I can't make a choice. This should be interesting not talking to nyone for HOURS--- so everyone take notes and we'll be fine.

    Oh NO!  I forgot!  We can't talk today?  Drats!  Yes Cammi..... but do you really have to honestly actually go?   I know you think you should, but maybe you don't need to?  Just sorry she had to pass.....  xoxoxo

    Okay gals.... see you later!

    Must have been the PT. I love my TENs. I can adjust everything on it. It's portable too. It has 8 leads, so can get all the places that hurt!

    OMG--we are out of commission between 9-3 withdrawal already beginning.

    Ziggy--Don't know Greer.But she could be EMT-A. Hudson had a slew of them. I only dealt with the paramedics(EMT-P's). and EMT-P's in training. All levels of EMT's are a hoot when practicing. Good lord at the first graduation i went to I had a BAD sore throat. I told those around me if I grabbed my throat keep all those medics from trying to do the hiemlich. Serious see if you can locate Claire? Tom Skillings and Sandy Race too. 

    Cami sorry, condolences to you and family. Bummer

    Blessings, yes, I am a bit of a different patient. plus add anesthesia and pain meds. not a good combo. All the negatives of last admission came to the surface. 

    I did what everyone said to do, lightened up went too bed and let go off the negative. Good suggestions from all. Brain starting to feel normal. Post op doc visit today. Near as I can tell, lymphocytic thyroiditis is a subtype of Hashimoto's , but we will see what doc says. At least it was a sick thyroid. They actually, sent everything out from pathology for a second opinion b/c "of patients concern re Cancer all specimens will be sent out for second opinion"----Cool.

    H-i-1 did you do the dinner or was that what yo said turned into a covered dish thing? It sounded like a- llot to try two days in a row. 

    Spookie that was not nice about the TENS, makes no sense that the PT would be that cruel. Sounds like they needed a different profession.

    Thanks Maddy, hope your feeling better too :) I'm near mended. Scar hoping it's not ugly, but I'll get it fixed (or not) if it is. He glued it. Never been glued before, not used to expected outcome. Been doing range of motion and it's all loosened up. Will know in a couple of weeks.

    Loved the bluebird for bluebird. Just like the one and only that I saw at Big Bear Dune in Michigan

    Have a fun day :) L&H&P's sassy

    Seriously confused by page counting. I
    have many groups I would like to catch back up on, read occas. and hope
    they pick up where I left off.

    Couldn't
    this have been off yesterday when I was gone all day. Wah, Wah, Wah.
    Went to PCP - what a trip. At least he's going to check my thyroid and
    chol. His answers to my all day tiredness - you guessed it - walk,
    exercise. So last night I raked old hay and today I toted out 2
    wheelbarrow loads and spread out on remaining acre and raked more.
    Another loaded to spread tomorrow. Now I'm really tired.
    Got me a steroid nose spray for my "furry animal in the nose" feeling.
    Lectured to take my Claritin and Zantac. Did get my Pneumovax and have
    RX for Shingles vac.

    Anyone know what changes were made or are we to discover them on our own? Or was it all in the background?

    Not really sure if this will post but trying. Intermittently says page doesn't exist.

    Enerva, loved the bluebird! That's a western bluebird. You can tell by his cowboy hat. Round here we have eastern bluebirds. They eat Philly cheesesteaks and "go down the shore".

    Those little chicken balls are adorable. Now I'm hungry. I'd go out to my chicken pen and look for chicken balls but I only have hens. Justmejanis, feel free to drop off some dark chocolate balls anytime. Sounds yummy! Can you post the recipe? Or do you guard the family jewels?

    I've got a splitting headache. Too much talk about balls I guess and trying to understand sas.

    Sassinator - love that title. Much rather have Hashimoto's than thyroid CA. Glad that is all behind you. Both my BC incisions glued. They look great. But then my Asian BS is a perfectionist.

    How will I exist in the morning without my coffee? I made appt for labwork for 9 am. Maybe need to drive thru Mickie D's for drive home (which is all of maybe 10 minutes).

    Don't remember the tile story but do remember the toilet out on the deck forever.

    Out of the mouths of babes...three year old grandson was visiting today while his father did some electrical work for us.  He asked me to draw a picture for him after handing me a notebook and pencil. Not being any sort of artist, I drew a smiley face for him.  As soon as he saw it he said, "Grandma!"  D-i-law and I ROTFLOAO because he was so right...not a hair on my head, no eyebrows and always smiling when he's around.  Then he told me to put arms and legs and my shirt on...well he had me mostly to rights, I did have clothes on at least.

    Sheila.

    Morning ya'll! 2nd treatmet yesterday, I started feeling queezy while I was still there so they added some Ativan. Nurse told me that next treatment I will get Emend instesad of Aloxi for nasuea. I've been taking Fenagren since we got home yesterday and a little cannibas. I went to sleep early and woke up feeling okay. Sometimes its hard to know if I'm hungry and naseus...so I'm going to eat some cereal.

    OMG Smarty!  THAT is so funny!  Ha, ha!  I have honestly never seen a CAKE like that!   BAD girl!  Well, no not really..... Man, you fit right IN!  Loopy

    Sass, my digestive problems have been gone since 4 days after surgery.... It was just that slight bug I had yesterday... In fact, I only take 1 Xstrength Tylenol about every 6-8 hours....  The only thing is, my leg is just sort of wobbly....  !  It feels fine, just not very strong yet.  Been 3 weeks.... just getting impatient, I guess.

    LilshitZiggy is going around posting pics of us with my Walker!  Brat!  I need to decorate it...   But yes.... rollers in my hair.... only I use hot rollers...so HAH!   Those little girls are so cute!  DD is coming to get me to take me to lunch today, meeting a couple other friends!  I LOVE Red Robin!  Then maybe to Costco for a couple things.... Man, I hope I can do it all.....I have big plans, and no brains!  Winking

    It's supposed to snow again this afternoon...  but I don't even care. 

    Cammers!  Yes, little honey, you can be the prettiest one this week.... wait.... the week is almost over!  So then it will be MY week! 

    Tang, so sorry about the nasuea!  Man, there is nothing worse than THAT, and being dizzy....!  Shut up Cammi...! 

    I don't know anymore news, so I'm signing off..... xoxoxoxoxo

    Chevy chit that pic. is of me not you--see how she does things. But I do hope u feel  good to do things today---And I always see the commercials for Red Robin and it looks so good--I don't even know if there are some around here, I've never seen one. Bee Careful and it is normal for u'r leg to feel that way--so don't overdo.
