Hi Ladies
Firstly :witch::sklol::witch2: HAPPY HALLOWEEN :witch::sklol::witch2: for today one and all. Was MIA did plan to come on yesterday but everything seemed to back up jobs wise so it didn't go to plan. I went to Sheffield to pick up a vibrating machine that I use at the MS centre. DH wanted me to have one due to the fact my balancing is going. So anything that might help is a bonus. We brought it home and assembled it. Moved the lounge around to find that we didn't like it that way :lol: so was too shattered to do it all again so left it for that day. So today guess what we are doing putting it all back where it was today.:o I also fitted in a walk prior to going to Sheffield. Then when I returned home made a batch of muffins for DH. Not too long after that we were off playing cards. It was a night where I did very well so only lost 4 games all night so one where I do badly and sit most of the night would have been nicer for my legs after such a busy day. Though someone upstairs had different plans for me :) I won 2nd prize and a couple of kitchen rolls. MEOWEE ~ Good news regarding the BSL though not so great news about the weight gain. I would hope once the body has adjusted to being on insulin again the pound will melt away again. My weight has crept up a couple of pounds though that is two reasons one I had to take some medication which I hate to take as it constipates me and secondly I have made some poor food choices. So I am hoping that if I buckle down and eat better and drink more both will be resolved. ROSEBUD ~ Yes you are right there was some horror stories of mental health patients many people being put in hospitals when they shouldn't have been for one. If you were epileptic that was another reason for being admitted. On my first ward there was a gentleman with learning difficulties who was fast approaching his 90's and reading his notes from the 1920's he was referred to as this idiot or this Imbecile it broke my heart reading this and made me cry :cry:. He was a lovely gentleman yes he could be violent, he could swear like a trooper but their was a lovely side to him that I adored. If he had been born today he would have had much better quality of living and more than likely living in the community with minimal support. Your DH is so like mine. At one time he would not hold my handbag (purse) an the one time I forgot it in the car he put it in another bag and covered the top of it before he would bring it to me :lol: He has got a wee bit better the more the MS has taken hold he will hold on to it for a few seconds till I get my balance. Though anybody would think it was a hand grenade by the way it wants rid of it :lol3: I was nearly up this morning before our feathered friends :D I was up at 7am ping I was wide awake. I have done my stint on my exercise machine and prepared dinner. Cut two finger already :o on a dicer machine I have I thought I had the other end and was rubbing it with my fingers to remove the particles of carrot. :yikes: I had the blade side so hence to cut fingers. Nothing bad no transfusions of blood needed or stitches ;) Just two small cuts that are more like cuts from paper more sore than anything else. Really bad timing regarding the car and draining your funds. Things like that come when you least need them. You will have to pull in your belts for a while after you move till you are more financially solvent. I have had to do that a few time so I appreciate how hard that is but necessary. Just received some sad news via a text call from my Mum to let me know that my sisters MIL had passed away in her sleep. So my sister is now busily organising everything to go to Ireland tonight to sail early morning. Her MIL had been very fragile for many months having the last rite numerous times. Thats all the gossip :gossip: for now plus I am sure you have listened :listen: to enough of me waffling on :D so bye ladies and take care :wave: purpleorc :grouphug: |
Happy Spooky Day, gang . . . :badbat:
Had a nasty blood sugar low yesterday morning and consequently made some very bad eating choices. Finally picked up the new Lantus and used it last night. This morning the BGL was a little higher than I'd like. Hopefully, I'll get this all balanced out sloon and can get back to the business of weight control. Nothing else is exciting around here -- weather is still holding in the decent range -- fairly sunny and with seasonal temperatures. High today was 5C/41F. It is windy and that does make it feel colder, but no snow, so far. Stay out of mischief tonight everybody . . . and don't forget to change the clocks back this weekend . . . :witch: |
:joker: HAPPY SAINTS HALLOWED EVE, or was that HAPPY HALLOWED SAINTS EVE? LOL! :joker: ... One place here is having a party for their :angel:HAPPY HALLELUJAH NIGHT! :angel: ... OR I could also just say the modern version of :queen: HAPPY HALLOWEEN! :queen:
MEOWEE ~ sorry to hear you've been having troubles with your sugar again; but there is bound to be adjustment time needed with any new medications. We had beautiful :sunny: sunshine :sunny: all day today; it was lovely and warm, but a cold wind came up in the late afternoon with some clouds. PURPLE ~ Sorry to hear about your sister's MIL passing; keeping them in my prayers. You certainly have had a busy couple of days; that's funny about likening holding a handbag to holding a hand grenade ... that's so very true! Glad to hear that you were able to get one of those vibrating machines; hope it helps you feel better. I got DH to set up my rowing machine again; it keeps getting moved and buried in boxes lately. DH and our mechanic friend worked 3+ hours on the car; put in all the new parts and it is running well again. It cost us all our car fund we had saved up and then some, but hopefully we won't have any problems with it again for awhile. The crack was only about 4-5 inches, but that is still large enough to loose all your antifreeze and stop the car in its tracks. We put in a new one that is made of cast aluminum, so that should last the lifetime of the car now (well, it better ~ lol) ... I just did cleaning around the house today; moving and sorting things out. I also arrange for a few more details regarding the utilities; just one more left for Monday as I had to wait til the car was moving again. We hope our house is vacant when we go look at it tomorrow; the people were supposed to be out by tonight. A friend drove by, and they were still there this afternoon:; maybe they were just cleaning up? :^: Well, DH layed down early tonight after a busy day and had more of those annoying CHARLIE HORSES in the back of his thigh. He wiggles and squirms around so much, it just makes it worse; and I go running because he acts like he is having a heart attack or something. I have had a few of those myself this year; they do hurt, but he really does like to goof around! ;) I told him that now that I know that he is going to live, I'll go back and finish my post ~ lol! :lol3: Not longer after, he recovered nicely and sauntered back to bed; way too early for a fun-filled Hallelujah Friday night, in my opinion ... lol! Hope you have a great night too, VAL!!! Take good care folks, your friend :hug:ROSEBUD :hug: |
:coach: IT'S THAT TIME AGAIN ~ we are on the move once more ...
:nono: STOP!!! DON'T POST HERE ANYMORE ... Please go to the new PHYSICAL CHALLENGES NOVEMBER THREAD -- that Meowee so gracefully 'red stickies' for us; see you there ... and thanx! :hug: ROSEBUD:hug: |
