Michelle - No hospital or even a MD's office is supposed to tell you 'if they have someone as a patient' unless you have signed paperwork telling them it is 'ok' to do so. My BF called my GYN's office the other day and was told 'they did not have anyone there by my name'. But, my cellphone was dead. I like taking words and…

Yvonne - Sorry for your loss. Newbies - Welcome!!! Allie - You need to stop Alfie's bad habits of chewing and nipping now while he is still a puppy. We think that Cracker might have belonged to someone who had started training her. She was picked up as a stray at about 4 months old. She was easy to crate, potty train, and…

Ladies - At this point in the game - it is just easier to write a general post rather than answer individually; hope I get what I want to say said. As for the "My Pillow" (advertised on TV??S?), it just 'looks' lumpy to me. We use 'feather pillow' ... soft and mold around head when you lay on them. We both have a…

Joyce, I hope you get well soon. Prayers going up. Still trying to figure out what I have to do to get to FB - apparently I will have to verify my PW every time. Such a PITA. Have it on my cellphone, but cannot figure out if I have to 'log out' ... driving me crazy ... maybe sister will know what is going on ... or I might…

Hi Ladies ... another post that is just general BS. Thanks to all who sent cards and well wishes for me (to get well) ... I'm better now that I was able to change password on FB account. Being able to do that meant that I had finally found that 'first step' to recovery. After that, I worked on email issues that were not…

Just a post directed at nobody in particular - but, maybe you will see the message. IT IS VERY LONG. I have been so darn frustrated at not being able to get the code to change my FB PW and for most of the week, thought that FB had taken over everything, from computer to phone. I know that was not the case; but, since…

LADIES - IF something starts showing up in my posts here that is 'dirty, nasty, or otherwise insulting' please let me know somehow. Microsoft has put out a 'new' operating system that will 'update' your computer to Microsoft Edge. WORST program since VISTA and there is NOT a way of correcting it or going back to whatever…

Thanks for all the well wishes. Unfortunately, I had a bad day today ... that is to be 'expected' ... but NOT at all fun. The highlight of my day was the 'long HOT shower'. A month of lukewarm (more luke than warm) showers daily will make you appreciate 'hot' water and our water is 'hot'. I could get on my computer…

Thanks for all the encouraging words and cards (especially). I keep them in a stack by my chair and re-read them to let myself know that I'll be 'okay' (in time). I've got to call my MD and ask to clarify a few things and ask about some medications I have and how or if they will affect my bipolar meds. I'm updating my…

Carol, try peanut butter or those 'sticky pads' ... we have found both work well with the mice we have. We also have Tux (our cat) ... I just do not need to see his presentations. I know he is hunting - I can see him out the window.

Hello ladies, just wanted to let you know that I am 'here and ok'; just lurking a little bit. Hospital stay was a drain on me AND my family. Cracker had a stroke when I walked in and hasn't left my side for long in a little over 2 days. Still having a time getting back to feeling like I am 'normal' again - according to the…

Just lurking ... will look at your other blog. MFP is getting rather large insofar as the communities.

I've had a 'great' couple of days. Totally lost yesterday. Don't remember it at all. Four seizures on Wednesday. I don't know what I am doing. I guess I am lucky I am not dead.

Re - I am so happy to have been told about your blog. On the other thread we were/are on ... I know I said some things about a post made by one. Sent her a PM and without my permission - she posted it for all 2 C. If, at any time, I have/had said something that was taken as not intended - I tried to apologize. It hurt.…

Bad Hair Day!

One reason I pay for 'technical support' ... I wasn't allowed to 'touch' our computers at work (grounds for dismissal), if something went wrong, so I have never even 'tried' to figure out too much by myself. I'm afraid I would really mess it up. They have my security, back-up, and support. It started out as a very small…

Heather and Katla – I find that most people do not understand ANY kind of ‘mental illness’; and, like ‘cancer’ used to be – NOT a subject talked about. When friends and family members started to ‘share’ what they were going through or having had seen their friends of family members go through when having cancer, they…

Re - I had heard about you blog; read the entire thing this AM. I don't remember your before picture on MFP 50+ WOMEN (in any month). I do remember your present weight pictures and even the posts where you had lost weight, to get where you were heading. To be 'half the woman you used to be'. I am also 5'4". WOW! What a…

Pip - Janitor - LOL! Is this your new job ... or were you going to write to Janetr and spell-check got 'cha? Enjoying all the pictures of Veterans. Keeping up with my BP for my PT - walked on treadmill 20 minutes, took BP - it was 114/75, HR - 101. Did it @ #26, maybe 1/5th of the time without holding on. Weaved a lot;…

Yesterday my BF and I went to Thomasville, GA - Beautiful city and they were having a Fall Festival so lots of people downtown. We rode though every little town on our way down and spend 3 or 4 hours walking around and ate lunch at a nice place. She had a pasta dish that was very good, I had the crab cakes which we good,…

Yvonne - Over 2000 pages in a bill that affected so many people's lives, and still does and then have Nancy Pelosi or any government official who has lived their lives with 'politics' being a 'career'. Saying they needed to 'pass it to find out what was in it'. Sorry, that was an idiotic comment at its best. Once something…

Mary - I would have left my job, too, if it required a 3-hour commute. It's one thing to go on a 3-hour boat ride and get stranded on an island ("Gilligan's Island"); but, driving back-and-forth would have gotten real old, real quickly w/new husband. If you and DH can live on whatever he might have gotten from any benefits…

Mary – Are you retired due to age, or a disability? I never worked after I was disabled because of the job I had – I could not do it – could not have done it even ½ time and I definitely was not going to work somewhere that my 'new' disability (if I could not do the job would be considerably lower than it is now). My bring…

Barbiecat - I got the book I asked you to order for me. Thanks! Lenora

Mary - There is one post in October from someone whose user name started with Nichole...; asking about people who have had/have Lyme's Disease. I told her to look for the link to bring her to this month; and then look down for your user name and name ... that you had recently moved to Arizona and you would be more than…

Scroll back up to find the link for November that Barbiecat has posted - make sure you 'bookmark' the page by clicking on the outline of the star and it will turn yellow. You might have to go back out and sign in again; but, I don't think so. Mary (Fancy) has had Lyme Disease and they recently moved to Arizona. Copy and…

Joyce – I did hear that late yesterday afternoon. I agree, it is awful. Losing children and pregnant wives really makes it awful. I don’t know what this world is coming to; but, there sure seems to be a lot of ‘evil’ in this world.’ My parents allowed me to stay out until 2:00am; but, they would have never allowed met to…

Mary - Thank you ... I'm very proud of them. Katla - I will be tracking from hereon out; but, when I eat something I know I shouldn't because I am craving it; it makes me want to 'kick myself in the butt'; but, it is tracked anyway. Sundays are 'exercise-free days' for me; but, I sure think I need to jump up on that…
