Rosie, we have a vested interest in your words. I could make a couple off the wall jokes, but need to be politically correct. You may leave and float in to the ether, but all we will have left is your words. For my friends that have passed, I go back and read their words on occasion. They are comforting. They help.

morning all. It rained again! here last night. Very nice.
I'm lurking. Got the last of the Xmas sewing done. Have to finish an Opportunity Quilt this morning then I can decorate the tree and start wrapping.
Can't go see GS since I caught DH cold. He's set for Monday morning, 5:30. He probably won't sleep Sunday. He's getting nervous and excited. Be glad when this part is over and hoping that it's a great improvement in his life.
Here's the last quilt. For a 5 year old.

You all take care now

Completely missed this in the news b/c I don't read much Florida news. Miami Dade County has decriminalized pot. City of Hallendale too. Broward County is next. All have done it without the state legislature. There are many initiatives being developed at the state government level that very on scope i.e. medical or recreational.
Mags, I think you are wasting your time with ever seeing that neurologist again. He's playing the money game. Not prepared for a visit so another visit has to be done. Cajing$. No scans, what's he basing is decisions on. 2008 scans are ridiculous. Some of those procedures on the link you found, have been around for at least 15 years locally here in my county. So, at the teaching facilities where new things are developed possibly 5-10 years before that. Remember when I said my crani approach was unknown of in my county AND it was 20 years old, but it was available in at least four centers in Florida.
Loverly, started baclofen at 10mg once a day then advanced to twice a day. Overall, much better. Haven't taken Tramadol in a couple of weeks. Major difference in TMJ left side. Less tinnitus. In fact today--no tinnitus on left and mild on right. What a blessing. Then had to take a decongestant Pseudophed when ears got blocked b/c of the stupid virus going around. Tinnitus improved even more. Still variable. I was worried about pseudofed b/c of BP. But I've adjust nicely. Lowest dose 30mg once a day. Then had to go to twice a day b/c the ears would block back up after the drug wore off. It was too painful. Left side has been blocked forever. Years. Duh, forgot about pseudophed. It's regulated, but available at the pharmacy without a prescription. Just need a drivers license. Some sleep changes, but adjusting. My hearing has improved too. If you can visualize the sound /volume bar. Most folks are in the bottom 25%. I was at 80-100%. Now pretty routinely in the 50-80%. Closer to the 50%-70 range than the 80%. Huge difference from the 100%. Donnie is very happy. Poor guy has only complained once in 3 years about how loud the TV was. Oh, sinus improving too, I can smell more. I'll leave out the particulars on that. The two drugs together are working miracles.
Queenie, How you doing?

Your dog stories reminds me of the time I had DS at the pediatrician 's for a checkup. He was a couple of years old and his doc was doing the what does a cat say, what does a duck say and when he asked what does a dog say DS said aroooooo. Doc asked him again and again DS said aroooooo. Doc turns and looks at me and I said with a straight face, "We have a beagle." As you know beagles bey and that's exactly what DS did. Doc got a good laugh out of that as DS was the first of his many patients that actually imitated his dog and not do the standard bow wow.

Susan3: (tongue in cheek) worst part so far being told by junior doctor in practice that I'm supposed to wear seamless sports bras for 4-6 weeks. Woulda been nice to know that beforehand! But hardly something to complain about. Not really. So I won't.

Queen- I remember having to wear those too but was told before hand. I was also told to wear them for much longer than that.
Kohls had a good selection of them when I needed those.

Who knew pillows exploded when exposed to canines? They should probably have a warning tag on them about that.

Jazzy: I did buy a couple of scooshie bras at Target--wearing one of them now--but I'll check kohl's too. Thank you!
Now back to our regularly scheduled dogs who admit nothing.

Hope you feel better soon, Ms. Smaarty. Let us know how GS' surgery goes.
Queenie, try the Bali 3488. So farI can't seem to find one more comfortable. Kohl's has them for $40. I found them less expensive online at http://www.hanes.com/onehanesplace/bra/shop-by-bra...
Kohl's might still price match. They did for me.

Bali 3488 check. I've got a couple of the Hanes "cozy" bras (G196 for geeks) that feel ok, but will check the bali as well. If I'm gonna be living in them, they better be good.

Ms. Sas, yay for finding of the right dose of Baclofen that works for you
So glad to hear the tinnitus is improving too. I don't have TMJ pain, but some mornings I wake up with sore jaw muscles. I know I grind my teeth during sleep. Now you got me to wonder if this contributes to the tinnitus.FYI, this probably affects only compounding for intrathecal injection.

They're is a bra thread. Haven't visited in a very long time. Don't have it in my favs........it's here and the gal's maintaining have been around since I got here.
Spookie I know I pissed you off. Not apologizing, but am apologizing. Love you gal. You are important to me.
My statement separate from my thoughts to Spookie.
The media sound bites that sensationalize are wrong. Been listening since before Trump got into it. For the media working their own angle, they are befuddled why Trump is surviving. He's surviving b/c he's talking about things that need to be talked about. For example, The No fly list. Since he made it an issue, it's being cleaned up and top government officials are talking. People are being arrested. Since the initial sensationalizing about the immigration issue. Yes, their is a problem with immigration. Who ever heard of Sanctuary Cities. The folks killed. The families that came forward telling stories of family members killed by illegals.
Trump is surviving because folks are willing to find out what he said, without the interpretation of the media.
Before Trump ever said anything about people on the "no fly list" being barred from flight, it was an ignored issue. I have followed it for years. The hx is in Wiki. They're is a meeting of timelines. Trump brought a highlight too it, and the result of recent lawsuits forced the departments to act. The Pres is trying to take credit for the clean up. Nope, he could have done something many years ago.
Obama has issued more Executive Orders than any president in hx. He want's to do something, he issues an Executive Order. Be damned if those orders meet the Constitution prerogative of separation of powers. In the past a president issued few executive orders.But that is diverging into the balance of powers of the three branches of our Republic.
I had to defend to a relative that we were a Republic not a Democracy. I had to look up the difference between a Republic and a Democracy. The difference is our President on the swearing in ceremony swears to uphold the Constitution.
Spookie, I know you are a strong Democrat, I'm a strong Repulican............mags and jazzy were right....... . About family not talking politics. Girl love you... chit let's get some ice cream and a chocolate dip.............
