It's OK, Angel Lover...I get those moments too!! More often these days than most days.

I'm home!! I have a freaking headache and I'm in a rotten mood so I am not going to post much cause I don't want to be too negative and bring the moods down. If you want to read about it just go here...I left it in the bite me thread...

http://www.3fatchicks.com/forum/showthread.php?t=40652

I'll be back when I feel more chipper. Right now I'd like to just ring some necks!!!!!!!! But I'll opt for a nap instead. ZzzzZZZzz!!!

PS: Hubby didn't go with us. He wound up getting sick and yakking too, like the kid did Wed. Poor guy. That's why he yelled at the cat. He finally fell asleep and the cat woke him up. *sigh*

thanks
[FONT=Georgia][COLOR=Cyan]Hey thanks for the tip about the metho. I guess its okay. Its just that I lost weight like that last year and then I gained it all back, I am craving ice-cream mostly. But thats what happened before. Iguess I will just have to be careful and just eat what I'm supposed like low carb, that means NO ICE CREAM I can do it.
Hey there angel-lover and linus ,immagonnadoit and happy canuck though I have never met you before,so I say hi happy canuck, I probably spelled that wrong.

Stifried:

What you do is after you type your whole message, go over it with your mouse and highlight it, then go and pick what you want to do and click that and it should automatically do this for you. You won't see the results though until after you post the message. If that doesnt work for you just remember to add the same words at the end as you have at the beginning, but add a / to it. like this [/color][/font] in front of your font=georgia and color=cyan. don't forget the little []'s either. I just didnt put them all in because if I did, then you wouldn't be able to see this explanation. So..you have a rare post without Noodles color! hehehe

Good morning!

Noodles

My friend....try to get some rest. Hopefully you'll get to feeling better. Sorry such a bad start to the week. We're here for you, if you need to vent.

Stirfried

There's different ways to put in the font & color. You had it right, all but the[/]& [/]at the end of your post. And like Noodles said, it's very simple to highlight, then pick the color. You can even highlight part of the post like this& then change colors by highlight the other part & choosing. Right below those choices are the places to choose B for bold,etc, then right, or center, or left, etc. You'll learn with practice. Just keep experimenting.
The Metho makes my food taste strange...like it's ruined, so I keep my weight down, mostly, because of that. I should have been on it, while I was on my diet to lose. I mostly try to just maintain now...although I wouldn't mind losing a little more. I get a Remicade treatment Thursday...I look forward to it because it helps me so much. I dread it also, because they really drug me up, being sensitive to it, so I'm "out of it" for a couple of days. I hate having this mess, but what are we to do? Sometimes I have pity parties & bawl about it, but it really doesn't help. I find that when it's close to time for a treatment, like now, is when I mostly feel this way. I'm also ill...can't seem to help it.

Hello to Iamgonnadoit, Rita, Kim, 2b, Linus...let us know how you're doing. I hope everyone is feeling well today. Talk to you all later.

**hugs**

Hope you don't mind my jumping in here, but I feel like I know a lot of you anyway. I post on several threads here on 3FC and read lots more. Noodles, congrats on the bowling. I used to bowl all the time, until the arthritis in my knees got so bad I couldn't handle it. I finally had both my knees replaced in 2002, and about a month ago I decided to see if I could still bowl, but I couldn't fit my fingers in my ball, so I tried a house ball. I was so afraid that I'd fall on my knees (that would be bad) that I only bowled one game and quit.

I have OA and Sjorgrens (that's also an autoimmune disease in the RA/Lupus family) and I have a lot of pain. I do water aerobics five days a week to keep myself as limber as possible.

I have a lot of weight to loose, and don't have a lot of luck loosing it, but I'm still trying.

I love the graphics yall are doing here. Yep I'm a TEXAN !

ageoldie!

So glad you came by. Hope you'll stay with us. I'm on other threads, also, but know my friends here understand my pain, & we can complain on bad days & not feel like we're talking about something no one else understands. Of course, others are very kind & encouraging....but, when you're talking to someone who's "there", it helps. I like your graphics, too! Both knees replaced! Ouch! Sounds like it may have really helped, though. Hope so. I know about Lupus, because of a couple of people I know. I don't know about Sjorgrens. Autoimmune disease says a lot, though. It's so hard to get people that are healthy to realize how devastating RA, etc is. Honestly, I didn't know until I got it. It swept so fast through my body, I didn't really get a chance to get used to the idea of having it. (If there is such a thing, as getting used to it.) Keep us updated how you're doing.

Noodles

I remember now you saying your name is Angel. I HAD forgotten, though. I collect angels. I started 12 yrs ago. Had a very large collection from several states. Not just figurines, but, picture frames, calendars, etc. We had a housefire 1 1/2 yrs ago. A lot of my angels were burned. I cleaned the remaining & put them in boxes & stored them in a public storage with furniture, & other sentimental things from the fire. The storage building was filled to capacity. One day last summer, we discovered someone had broken into the storage building & stole everything we had! ( a few rough months we've been through). Anyway, my sweet mother-in-law gave me a surprise "Angel Shower" & I received a lot of beautiful angels! I'm still getting them. This meant sooo much to me! Of course, I'll never forget the ones I had. A lot of those were gifts, also. The storage had things of my dad's (deceased) that meant a lot to me. Also, an oak bedroom suit we had bought the week we got married 36 yrs ago. Oh well.....water under the bridge. I didn't mean to go on & on. But, I DO like angels!!!!
I know what you mean about the hair loss. My hair is thin, & the Methotrexate makes it come out even more. I have a great beautician. She makes my hair look a lot thicker than what it is! Hope you're feeling better today.....& find your kitty. The pic below is for you.
Everyone have a great Tuesday!

Welcome, Ageoldie!! Thanks for the nice comments.

Goodness gracious, Charlotte! You've been through alot!! Ya know Charlotte is 1 of my favorite names...I had a car that we named Charlotte..my mother bought it when I was born and passed it to me when I was 18. I changed the way I spelled the name to "Sharlet" so I could get a personalized plate for her. Sniffles..I miss that car!!

No cat. I put up flyers, went to pound and did paperwork, hub did the HSSA trip, and I put his pics on our local lost and found pet site. Oh and newspapers. Cosmo was a pound adoptee and already abused and so he's scared as it is of sounds and things. This time I wasn't home for him to run too. Besides that, everything else that could go wrong is going wrong. I'm ready to run away from home.
