good morning friends. It was quiet on here last night. Hope that's because everyone was either sleeping peacefully or out painting the town red - with Chevy of course
Hootie hoo

Um.....Ms. Chevy, she is right above you. Didn't see it either. Went to the other post first. Sorry Patty, you are up all by yourself last night. The Insomniacs on here were all sleeping, I think. BB

Yay Patti wonderful to see your post and hear you are on the mend! I can't see "Hootie hoo" and not think of you.
DH told me that all the news reports about the shooter being from the midwest were all wrong; much of what they reported yesterday was goofy. He was from CA and did live in the area. That community college is so rural I was shocked. My DD2 texted me from her Portland college telling me yesterday. I can imagine being a student how this might be unnerving being in class and wondering if you are a sitting duck.
Spookie you have ruined my peace with your post of Christmas just 3 months off. Now I am worried about getting things for the kids. I am amazed some of you are so organized as to be finished. Wow. The leaves are changing and the colors are wonderful. We are still awash in honey bees on our blue asters, the seedums are done. No bee shortage here; they are all in our backyard in the perennial bed! Be well.

Okay.... I know, but I was so excited, because I had "Patty" on my favorites list, and saw she posted there....Ha!
Rosie, that shooting just makes me sick.......... At least he is dead, and doesn't have to put everyone through a long useless trial, like they did here for the Theater shooting.... Those people SHOULD be shot!
Anyone who causes so much harm and heart-break doesn't deserve to spend another day living on this earth... and taking another breath......
What's WRONG with these people? I mean it could happen ANYwhere! Gals on here, or anyone with a terminal illness are fighting for each day, and then some numb-nuts decides to cut short lives of people he doesn't even KNOW! Give me just 2 minutes with him.... He'll be SORRY! Then he's done.

Patty ! YEEHA, so happy you feel good enough to tease the Chevester.......
I am still in S. Calif., my trip is winding down. I will catch up later.
Hello to all.....

Chevy the Colorado guy was clearly mentally ill and left a paper trail of his mental decline. His shrink he saw on campus should have committed him for safety. She had enough evidence he was breaking up. It sounds like this kid yesterday was suffering from mental illness as well. The Newtown Conn. kid was mentally ill. In some of these cases the parents didn't seek treatment or at least enough treatment to make a difference. Hiding a mentally ill child doesn't help, just prolongs the misery and makes the potential for harm of self and others a possibility. The fact that some of these parents armed their kids with guns and assault weapons makes me wonder if they were not off in the head as well. The Newtown shooter Adam was given an automatic assault weapon as a "gift." He shot his Mom in the face and killed her with his present. Then he went and killed a class of little kids and their teachers.
Our DD3 has a mood disorder and put us through the ringer until we sorted it out. One med made her perfectly wacko and we didn't realize it until we weaned her off! Then we found the perfect med that restored our kid to where she was! Better living through chemistry and thank goodness for insurance. We were persistent and insistent on working until we found something that calmed the waters and restored life as it was before. It took heaps of patience and love but mental illness is a disease just like diabetes, kidney failure etc. I can not blame my child for a disease, all I can do is support her, take her to counseling and provide the meds that retore her mental equilibrium - if we are lucky enough to find a med that does that and we were. Oh and there are no guns in our house. I do hope that her doctors will discuss the genetic links that might exist with mood disorders when she is older and might want to have kids, since she is adopted and we know nothing about her medical history. Life is hard sometimes. Like we don't all know this being in this cancer club.

I hear you on that, Chevy! I didn't know anything about the shooting out there until hubby had called me about it just before he left work yesterday afternoon. I have relatives from my stepdad's side in Southern Oregon. I got right on FB to try and get in touch with one of them to see how far they are from Roseburg, thankfully they are closer to California/Oregon border. So sad, as it brought back memories of Sandy Hook. I have a friend that I went to the local community college with that lost a sister at Sandy Hook.

Hey, feel like chit, those stones just wipe me out. Just when I think it's over, it let's me know it's not. l feel like the day after, the day after Neulasta did it's worst.
Boyd, those folks sure aren't communicating with you. Do what Chevy said. Sit on them, till they answer. This isn't right.
Susan, call the local EMS or ambulance service and ask for the company they use for cleaning up a house after a long decomposition problem. Sounds dreadful. It is. Fire guys are known to go in with their Scott Air Packs(airtanks used in fires). Those companies may suggest an industrial type cleaner or sequence of steps to take. Aren't I just a wealth of awful trivial pursuit knowledge.
Mema I think you found your writing wings. I see you more and more everywhere. That's nice
Spookie, how we doing with that Blow in the Atlantic?
Jazzy, hope that weather disturbance doesn't mess with your wedding, reunion, and season change watching.
Chevy, after four years of physical therapy after polio, I was bendy like that too
Now not at all. Smarrty, thanks for the idea on crystal light.
LOVE the pic on the rocker. Did you video trying to get up there and settled. HAhahahahah. Did you see Edith Ann?ALLYSON you are flying now. Have fun with DD. Post lot's of pics. Hope your back does well with all the sitting. And your arm. Have oddles of fun
Rosie horrid about the shooting. Glad you and yours are safe. Just saying again that you are marvehlous to have been so selfless to all that you have done for your 3 DD's Bless you
Patty, OHH good Marinol. Been around since the late 90's It's more thought of as an appetite stimulator. I checked before I posted that it was also good for N&V. Megace is a consideration too. But Marinol has that extra nice effect that Megace doesn't
Loverly, the tinnitus is roaring, even the vibration didn't quiet it. You sacro-illiac joints, sorry, they are the worst overall. The others can be fixed. SI joints very difficult. A skilled Chiropracter with a drop table can do wonders. Tough to find one. Just as all docs aren't equal, not all chiro's are equal. Thanks for keeping up on Toradol. I'm taking 5000D any ideas?

Me. You forgot me. *weeping*
Okay I'm good now.
Dh comes home tonight after a week away. Got my nails done and went to kohls. So tired of the Buddha belly so I found this. Tried it on first. It works. Buy one get one half off. Plus 30% coupon. One beige one black.
I know, I could exercise but for now.

Started feeling like I have a cold coming on a bit ago. I'll be drinking hot tea with honey tonight to combat it if it tries to rear its ugly head.

Oh Mags is crying now......... See what you did Sass? Ha! Isn't that a corset? I remember my Mom used to have them....... Is it for your middle, or for your back? Or both? And how the hell do you FASTEN the hooks? Or do you do it in front of a mirror? That's how I would do it..... Or I suppose you could hook them all, set it on the floor, and pull it up over your feet and legs? Maybe they have a corset "donner" like I have for my support stockings!!!!!
It would be on a stretch thing, then you would step into it, and then release it, and it would snap right on to you!
Mom2.... Have you ever taken that powder packet of something for a cold coming on? Like before a flight? I hope it's just an allergy to something?

So sorry Ms. Sas that you are still in pain. Thought you were better when I saw u posting on W&F. I know there is no conclusive studies on Vit D linking to kidney stones, but I do think daily high doses of Vit D can cause kidney stones. If you think about how kidney stones are formed and the relationship between calcium and Vit D, when the balance is thrown off the body will try to compensate.

Patty - Hootie Hoo back atcha. Hope you get your patootie outta that hospital soonest. (((HUGS))) sweet sister. So very glad you checked in but so very sorry for your setbacks.
Mags - WallyWorld has cheapie hold 'em in underwear. They are nylon so I don't wear them for everyday stuff, like my cotton undies. Dreading the real fall when I have to start wearing tights/hose to church. Have gone bare legged most of the summer even with my ugly as dirt legs, not to mention the extra padding they have lol.
DH looks like he has a plum in his lower jaw but feels pretty good. No pain meds. Taking his antibiotic and prednisone - yes that's weird but I found many other endo's on the net who use it for short term decreasing dose - for inflammation. Eating most everything I offer but nothing crispy, nutty, really chewy. BTW that Halcion worked great. I was sitting beside him, 20 min after they gave it I realized he had not turned the page reading the same 1/2 magazine page over and over. But he walked out and walked in the house OK. I was kinda dreading the afternoon but it was OK. We had Chick Fil A milkshakes just after leaving so I could get him some ice. "Didn't they tell you to bring a cooler?" Nope and I have a doozy of one that campers use to keep stuff frozen. She did supply me with some baggies for ice. And her little icebag I swear it was the same kind I had for my biopsy. He still has a bit of a hangover but there's nothing to do but couch surf anyway. And of course it is a beautiful almost fall like day.
Sorry Mommy you're feeling under the weather but your weather sounds like a good time to stay in.
Sassy - I hope your afternoon has gone better than it started out.

Yep. Just took a nice hot shower and I'm all snuggly warm in my pjs. Gonna make a cup of hot tea with honey a little later. Hubby said lots of people he knows at work are starting to feel the same way I am.
