hello OMG friends. i am still alive. it has been a long break from school, or it seems that way. kids go back in a week and two days, but who's counting? i am not doing so well, mentally, but, i'm not doing myself any favors by staying in this rut. I hope my OMG family is doing well, and i apologize for my meds-induced…

the plumeria are gorgeous! and so is Izzy! we had fun by the pool yesterday here as well. today, it is rainy, so the kids want to go to an indoor trampoline place. I'm not thrilled, but if we escape without injury, i'll be pleased ;) MaryLyn, your property sounds like a retreat :) a retreat for those not working on it,…

good morning ladies. firstly, i feel so relieved that I'm still on the OMG roster! so, thanks for the faith! a friend i met on another thread reached out to me via mail which made me realize how much i need to get back in the right head space. I haven't logged into MFP since the last time i checked in here.... and i can't…

I would like to join you on the climb! I've been in a rut, and i deserve better. (omg, did i just THINK that?) Myra

My apologies to all of you. I will, in time, go back and read everything. I have been kidnapped and held hostage by an overprotective strawberry bed. I have a new respect for farmers! Last year, I didn't get many berries. so, I didn't pull all of the "runners" that was a mistake, hehe. my back is cursing my inability to…

Sorry to hear that moyer. Even more sorry I have not been checking the board. I hope things have improved for you by now.

Darn iPad cut my post short. Grr. Have a great weekend -- I am thinking of all of you. Myra

Hello all, quick check in to say hello and say we are on the road again. We received a last minute invite to my sister in law's new house just north of Charlestown, SC. Her brother and family will be there as well. My girls are excited to visit with their two year old cousin. Speaking of little girls, Izzy is adorable in…

Hiya, fellow work in progress! I, personally, was unaware of any "duties" associated with starting a thread...... but i'm very happy to see you here! I'm smiling, in fact. so, yay. :smile:
-
it does seem that way, but in MY experience, it hasn't been so. the drugs might make me retain a little fluid, but nothing more than what fluctuating hormones already do. I've been on many antidepressants (not the MAOI's) and they have never had an effect on CICO for me. for those of you who gain weight on meds, PLEASE…

it's a "newer" SSRI. i thought the following article gave an interesting explanation: https://www.statnews.com/2016/02/02/antidepressant-may-not-better-cheaper-alternatives-demand-soon-skyrocket/ @ArticSero: feel free to jump in anytime!

CONGRATULATIONS to Janet :) best of luck to Jeanette for Brian's job search! speedy healing to those in need. yikes, Beth, I hope you can wear something at night to stop that stress grinding. my teeth hurt just thinking about it. Karla, I am smiling. and saying the serenity prayer. and trying to redefine "normal". btw, i…

just waiving hello to you all. trying to make healthy choices here. baby steps in the right direction :)

hello OMG ladies. a quick hello to tell you i'm still here and thinking about each one of you. I had to put myself in a computer time-out. my smart phone must be logging into MFP for me because i haven't logged in for a couple days now. I just had to step back and convince myself that my goals are currently unattainable…
-
I'm with you there, sister. I'm back on a drug I gave up on over five years ago because of the sexual side effects. desperate times...... I hope you have an understanding partner.
-
YAY! welcome back! we have missed you!

Janet- i stole "freggie" from another board on MFP.... so you're welcome to it! :smiley: I'm off to school volunteering (no teaching, just a warm body on the playground)

Patti- glad you enjoyed my “hometown”…. although I probably wouldn’t recognize much of it anymore. I haven’t been there for at least 15 years. sorry the new yogurt flavor was disappointing. I had given up flavored yogurt until i discovered “triple zero” greek. my favorite is vanilla, which i’ve never liked before. go…
-
Cindy and Janet- the yoga studio i attend is very gentle. in fact, she calls it "yoga therapy" her style is eclectic, so it's hard to describe. it is not like any yoga class i've tried before.... there are no sun salutations, and very few standing poses (although we've done some warrior 2 and some tree poses) most of it is…

good morning, OMG ladies :) I'm so far behind in personals, I won't pretend i can catch up before my girls wake up..... so I apologize in advance for those i'm sure i'll miss....

Bert- thanks for the pictures!!! they are GREAT! and your grandchildren are precious! Janet- I hope your Easter weekend is serene as well :) after a morning egg hunt, I plan a low-key mid-afternoon meal with all four of my kids at the same table. It might be the last one for a while, as the oldest plans to move to…

Cindy- like everyone else, I am happy to hear you are taking it easy and using an inhaler! If possible, work from home as long as you can! I’m glad you are finally doing better…. let’s keep that going :) I agree with Diane about pneumonia. it frightens me. Patti is off and running, but I noticed she mentioned Venice, FL…..…
