Jules - bad news about the ER...hope everything turns out ok
I myself went to the doc this morning...have had a bad cough for a long time now. Plus I was curious about going back on anti-anxiety meds...well I have them now, I just have to decide whether or not its the best idea to take them. Also, down 2 more pounds
JULES...hope DD is feeling better. I've heard kidney stones can be very painful so I hope she is lots better. Shoot, even the infections are painful, mu sister used to get them a lot. Hopefully they gave her something good for the pain. Hugs to her How are you holding up? I hate going to the ER..it has to be one of the worst places ever and you were just there with DH not too long ago. How is he doing by the way? Is he back to normal and working again? Hugs to yo all!
SASSY...hoping all is well with you and yours. Lots of hugs to you guys too!
SusanNYC...wtg on the 2 pounds! Hope the doc was able to do something for your cough.
Hi ya MICHELLE, KATY & SUSAN!
I probably shouldn't be on the computer today with the storms we are having. Perfect weather for moving eh? Ummm, not! It is supposed to rain thru Sunday, great. I know we need it but we are moving! Oh well...maybe we will get a little break from it. Tomorrow starts the fun...9 a.m. closing on this house, then off to an 11 a.m. closing on the new house then to get the u-haul and the fun begins! So...this will probably be the last post from me for a few days. Once we get moved I am hoping to take a break and possibly get on Saturday or Sunday, soooooo...
UGH. We went over our friends yesterday and they had just gotten over being bad sick. I was careful and didn't touch anything there and barely even moved from where I was sitting. As soon as I came home I washed my hands really good, but I still got it I think.
I took some tylenol pm's lastnight because DH said I was warm and I was very achy, still am. I haven't eaten since yesterday afternoon and really don't want too, but DH ordered me some egg drop soup, so I will try that, but I'm scared to even eat that.
I'm going to take some Dayquil and lay down on the futon and watch tv.
Thanks for the thoughts and hugs Jules and Cristina!
Jules -- So sorry to hear about your DD, I hope she is okay!!!!!!
Cristina -- I hope you have a very smooth and safe move and I hope the storm stops at least so you all can get moved!
SusanNYC: I just read that you are past your goal! WTG! That is awesome! Thanks for the well wishes, but I think I am sick. Also I won't tell you that is warm and sunny here today......oops. lol. I hope you get some sunshine soon!
Hi to everybody! I'm so sorry I haven't been very active lately. I know that is very unlike me. But I am going to try to correct that!
Sassy--I have to say I do miss your early morning posts!! Hope you are feeling better soon!!
Cristina--your making me tired just thinking about all the moving!! Hope you get some sun!!
SusanNYC--you are doing so wonderful!!! WTG on the two pounds!!!
Well dd is miserable--they only gave her Motrin 800 and it's not helping with the pain--hopefully the antibiotic will clear up the infection quick. I told her if she is still in pain tomorrow we will go to the doctors.
Thanks for all the well wishes, whatever I got, its no fun....... I just hope I feel better by tomorrow so I don't have to work feeling like crud. lol.
It was REALLY warm here today, 75 degrees!!!!!!!! Too bad I was too ill to go outside and enjoy it! Well at least DH got out, even though it was too a meeting at work, he went to Costco and what not afterwards to look about. So he got out at least.
He wanted to go out to a nice dinner but I am too ill. I can count on one hand the things I've eaten the last few days. lol. What a way to lose weight, eh? (JUST KIDDING!) lol.
I think my cat is ill too. He has always been a "big" cat, but here lately I've noticed he's been losing weight. I picked him up earlier and he is like nothing like he used to be! He eats, drinks, etc. So I dunno. DH says he is just getting old. (He is 10 yrs. old) So both cats are due for their annual vet visit so we'll have to make an appt. I just hope its nothing major. I know that he won't live forever, but well, he's my "baby". I've had him since he was 6 weeks old and could fit into the palm of my hand. I get teary eyed just thinking about losing him.
Anywho, DH & I just got done watching "Blood Diamond" w/ Leonardo Decaprio, that is an excellent movie! I think its one of Leo's best!
Jules -- I miss posting my early morning posts!
Well I hope you all are well and please take care!
CRISTINA...I'm thinking of you moving. My DD and SIL moved the past two days and it's always so nice getting into a new place.
SASSY...So sorry you've been so sick. Hope you're feeling much better by tomorrow. I hope nothing major is wrong with your kitty. I've heard so much with the cat/dog foods this past week and I worry when I hear an animal isn't feeling very well.
Well ladies, not much going on here at all, just the same ole, same ole. Tomorrow I will be turning 43, as my girls reminded me, and I don't even like thinking of my birthday anymore. We're going to go out to Red Robin next Tuesday, after our eye appointments, because I get a free meal. I hope all of you have a wonderful evening, lots of big hugs!!!
HELLO to Susan, Katy, Scuzin, Kathy, and anyone else I may have missed!!
Morning All -- Jules here is your Good Morning post! lol.
Hey Jules -- here is your Good Morning Post you've been missing! lol.
Morning All.
Well today, well I guess yesterday/this morning is the 1st day I feel better. Not running no marathons -- yet, but I feel better!
Its been a rainy dreary day/night/morning/whatever. lol. But still pretty warm, it was still in the 60's today and still is about 60 now. I think its supposed to be warm all weekend, but rain, which is fine for me, I'll be here working hard! lol.
FIL called saying that a friend of his is selling his house for a good price, but its kinda far out and I'm not sure if we are going to buy anything at the moment until we know more about FIL's condition, but who knows.
We have an appt. for Tues. for the Vet for our cats (taking both in they are due for their annual exams anyways) I hope its nothing serious, our cats have not been fed the pet food that has been recalled either, I did check. If you would like to check, here is the site: Pet Food Recall
Michelle -- Thanks hon. I do feel lots better today, that is for sure! I feel so bad for all those people who have lost their pets and/or whose pets are in a lot of pain. Makes you want to not feed them any commercial pet food. Infact I read that a new trend is making people food (nutrious food) for your pets. I don't blame people who do that, after all this big blow up with the pet food recall. But anymore, its hard to know what you can trust or not trust, even human food is being recalled every single day, very scary stuff!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY, MICHELLE!
I hope you enjoy your dinner at Red Robin and a very special birthday, because you are a very special lady!
I'm feeling better and back on the wagon as it were...lost a pound this week. Yay! I linked my knitting blog to my siggy - just click on "knitting away the pounds" isn't that a neat trick? Anyway, I saw that someone asked about my projects...that's where they are! I am really close to being able to have my 10-lb sweater. Doesn't that sound funny? To help my motivation, I am telling myself I get to make a fabulous something or other for every 10 lbs I lose. If you go to my blog and look at the Ariann posts, you will see what I have started for my 1st 10 lb goal. It will be pretty - when it's done, of course.
Michelle - chiming in with a
Jules - hope DD is feeling better - kidney stones do not sound fun at all. Hope the filling doesn't break the bank
Sassy - glad you are feeling better...how's FIL? Have you heard anything - hopefully he's doing better.
SusanNYC - Your weight loss is so impressive - keep up the good work! How'd you like Boston? Could you see yourself living there?
Cristina - hope your move is going well - I can't wait to see some pics of the new place.
I just subscribed to the Nutrition Action Newsletter and I highly recommend it. You can read all about it at www.cspinet.org. The organization is Center for Science in the Public Interest - people call them the "Food Cops" I call them "Consumer Reports for Food". Very interesting reading and a subscription is pretty reasonably priced, imo.
As of 2:15 today, my kids are on Spring Break - which means heavy competition for the computer. We'll be going to the beach for a chunk of next week, so if I don't get back here before we leave, Have a great weekend and a great week!
CRISTINA...Thank you so much for the birthday card! You're always so thoughtful of others, even in your busy time of moving. You're such a sweetheart!!
Girls it is finally spring here--a gorgeous day out!!! Rode down to visit my Mom and brother though my brother had left -- he's stir crazy after his operation!! DD is finally feeling better--she's tired but this is the last day of the antibiotics, so hopefully she will get perky again soon!!
It is or was a very Sunny Sunday here! It was 80 / 26.6 Degrees! Beautiful! We got up a bit early and stopped at Panera Bread and ate, it was very good! Something different. I had the Chicken, Bacon and Swiss Panni Sandwich (I know the bacon and swiss probably not great, but better than some things) and it came with chips, didn't eat those, only ate 1/2 the sandwich, DH ate the other half. He had a bread bowl of the french onion soup, which I tasted, was very good!
After that, we had some time to kill before heading into work, so we went by Nissan and looked at a 2nd car, for me. Its the Nissan Versa and its so cute! Its perfect for me, DH can fit into it (he's 6'8) but definately couldn't drive it everyday, so it most definately will be MY car! It has plenty of room for SHOPPING too! The back seats fold down as well.
Its not set in stone yet, but I did love it and we love our other Nissan we bought from them, so if we can figure it into our budget, we'll probably get it.
Not sure if I mentioned this here or not, but my kitty is not doing well. He is 10 yrs old, but has only been ill once in his life, he's always been a very healthy and "beefy" cat, if you know what I mean, here lately he has been losing weight, lethargic, and now won't eat or even drink milk. I even bought him some baby food and he wouldn't even touch it. We have an appt for him to see the vet on Tuesday at 3:30 PM, but when we got up today, he seemed worse, I petted him and he didn't even respond, he was breathing and all, just looks like he definately feels worse. So I told DH in the morning, when the vet opens 1st thing we are going to bring him in so they can observe him and check him out, give him meds, do tests, etc while we sleep. I don't want to wait, we would have taken him today but they are not open today. I just hope he's not suffering and I hate seeing him like that because its totally not like him at all.
Michelle, how was your Bday? I hope it was great!
Jules - Hey Girlie!
Katy - Hi Chickie! FIL is going to see the specialist on Tues, so no new news yet, will let you know!
Hope the doc was able to do something for your cough.
Hi Ladies!
I just hope I feel better by tomorrow so I don't have to work feeling like crud. lol. 
Too bad I was too ill to go outside and enjoy it! Well at least DH got out, even though it was too a meeting at work, he went to Costco and what not afterwards to look about. So he got out at least.
I get teary eyed just thinking about losing him. 
Morning All -- Jules here is your Good Morning post! lol.
