That is so frustrating Meme-especially when you told them. Perhaps if they change it enough times they will remember-give them a calendar with every Monday and Tuesday crossed out. My rib keeps going in spasms. And I have so much to do. Guy is going to start painting next week and then party is next Sunday. I turtled at TOPS-Joanne, we are in a race for KOPS=I might beat you this week because I am going to have a colonoscopy. I shouldn't say beat you-I hope you get it real soon. I am writing my points down again-don't do well without it. Bye for now Mima

Mima- When I had my colnoscopy I thought that was good for a pound ot two. Heck the scale didn't go down at all!I won't make it this week. The scale moves really slow for me..
Meme- What you have to do is go in the office when they are setting up the appointment and regulate the days yourself. I have been there and done that. Even my hubby,I don't let him make appt. He will mess it up every time.
Ally- I agree about the foods. We don't have any idea what pesticides are put on the food we buy. I have been to some of the organic food markets. The only thing is the veggies didn't look all that fresh.And the price was really high.Good luck. Don't eat all the stuff in the house,give it away.I bought candy and so far it hasn't been opened. I will be in trouble when it is..
Hello Everybody...Joanne

I do that when I'm at the office with them, it's when they make appointments over the phone when they always make them for Mon. or Tues.

My cold/whatever was getting better (once again) and I went shopping for Kaylyn's BD party yesterday (it's today at 5:30) and now I'm feeling miserable again. Seems I just can't lick this one. I can't believe she will be 6 on Tuesday. They are growing up too fast! She wanted roller blades. I got them for her - she'll probably break her neck! I also got her the Swan Lake Barbie movie, doll and unicorn and a black and fuchsia velvet outfit! (Have to keep her a little girl as long as possible!) I kind of dread the party and all the noise - my head feels like it's down in a well or something.

Don't feel bad about venting Meme.....you can only be the nice guy so long and then you feel taken for granted or taken advantage of. I was getting lots of calls and even gas money from my cousin when my aunt was in the hospital. That was guilt. Now they have to know that I am the one doing all this transporting and I hear nothing. My aunt is sweet and appreciative but she doesn't know how to get two appointments scheduled in one day.... That is a two hour drive one way.
Anyway.....I am sooooo achy today. I guess all that crap I have eaten in the last two weeks has caught up with me...
And yes, I think organic food is more expensive. We still have some road side stands with veggies, will have to try that route.

I have been so bad and feeling down some days due to the pain..just so super sensitive to all outer stimuli and still having puter problems to boot! Did get my two china cabinets cleaned out, took two days of carring stuff to the kitchen sink and washing and drying and then putting it all back, need more room too. Still cleaning up ladybugs too, the cat sits in the window and watches them.

My son in med school is having a rough time with two of his classes, just hope he does not get to stressed out, he sounds really upset, we just try to encourage him. Kids.........will always be our babies I guess!

Got my flu shot this week.......

My shoulder and neck hurt so gotta go do some stetches to see if that will help...sorry to be such a downer, Baking would cheer me up and I have some new recipes to try but don't want to eat it all I ate too many homemade caramels I got at the craft mall I would just like to beable to eat anything and not gain or feel pain........but this will never happen so the battle of the buldge continues! DR. Phill would tell me I obsese over what I eat but if I didn't I would be very unhealthy. Getting old is just no fun! that darn metabolism!

I have been feeling down too Candice, all I think about is getting ready for next week. I am doing my points again. I also have to eat more fruit because I do not get those veggies in. Beautiful girl, Meme. You have beautiful grandchildren. I watched the World Series last night. It was worth seeing the Yankees faces when it was over. Those Marlins are something. Painting starts tomorrow, Can't wait to see it. Teal with white woodwork, teal carpet and white tile on the bottom. My rib acts up every night-spasms. I'm tired from only getting 6 hours sleep-nap today. Mima

Candice.....Medical school is brutal. My brother got his MD through the army. They sent him to med school at George Washington University, but then he owed the government 5 years as a Doc. He had me read this funny irreverant book called "House of God"....he said it was close to reality. It was funny but it was also about the torture of classes, then being a resident and working 48 hours without sleep. I would not want to go through that....I think Docs deserve to make good money after you realize what they go through. But they also have a chip on their shoulder for the rest of their lives, and that may be why they stop taking the time to listen to us.
