That's it! I've had enough. There is enough paranoia, suspicion and vitriol running rampant in the world right now without coming here to find it. Machka - thank you for being the voice of reason.
-
Heather - thank you for asking. The answer on the antibiotics is that I'm hoping they worked, but reserving judgment for now. Will make that decision between New Year's and Christmas. Machka - You and your husband look equally happy. What a wonderful accomplishment!

SuziQ - love watching you catch up. I know that everyone understands when we respond as and when we can, and enter conversations at will, so I put away the guilt years ago for not catching everyone up in the responses. Admire those who do, like you, and am grateful for you. Love the jazzy wreath. AnnaBanana - definitely…

Keeping your heart with mine, Allie. Thinking about you.

Karen - thank you. When the choir began again, it made me break down and cry. I wasn't that sure I could cry anymore, honestly. Too many tears over the course of this year to believe I had any more to give.

Morning, afternoon, evening, all... Welcome to those who are new, we're glad you're here! Just tell us what you'd like to be called and a general location, and as much as you're willing to share about who you are. We avoid politics and religion on this thread, and the thread begins again each month. Made it to 25 minutes…

Allie - thanks for checking in, glad they were able to get you back in rhythm, and that you've got help... keep us posted, dear heart...

Heather – Loved Johnny's round robin B) - especially the humorous bent. Karen in VA – So pleased for Josephine the Ballerina <3 - what a lovely Christmas gift for her and for her family! Tracey - You made me sniffle with that one. I'm so glad you got a chance to speak to your mom. I'd give a lot to talk to my Mama--really…

Morning, afternoon and evening all... Rebecca - Athena in a unicorn hat is one of the cutest things I've ever seen. Glad you got your stamps, made me very happy to send them. Allie - please let us know how you're doing when you can. Another chilly morning in Arkansas - supposed to be nice later. Love y'all, Lisa in AR

Allie - I'm sorry the news isn't good. I'm thinking about you. Keep us in your pocket and fight for what you need, girl.

Tracey - I have a thing about bright lights as I get older... I need them to do any work of any kind. Really love the new lights in your kitchen. Light was one of the reasons I loved this house on first sight. Lots and lots of natural light everywhere. And yes, when people offer me apple or berry pie, or some form of…

Allie - That afib episode definitely proves you're in the right place. Let them keep taking care of you, girlie. You're where you need to be for now. Barbara AHMOD - I had to negotiate a similar issue with the plumbing with Corey a couple months back - wasn't cheap, but it's awfully nice when things work like they're…

Morning, afternoon and evening, all... Allie - I told my husband I feel like an old truck some days, where once one thing goes wrong, it seems like something else goes wrong every time you drive it. He patted me on the head, and said, "Don't worry, I won't trade you in a new model." I get no sympathy around here... :wink:…

I keep forgetting to mention, but the last round of adjustments to the heart medications has me where I'm supposed to be on blood pressure and pulse. I'm feeling quite a bit better - however, I started the antibiotics round on Tuesday to (hopefully) finish what was started with getting my gut working correctly, and those…

Hello again, my chickens! Yesterday was rainy and cold and dreary around these parts, so I hopped off to Lowes in the very early morning and picked up a steel standing shelf (2 ft deep, 6 ft high, and four feet wide) that was on sale. Worked all morning and afternoon to put it together and start moving stuff onto it. It…

Morning, afternoon and evening, everyone, wherever you may be... Rebecca - thank you for reminding us of Gloria. <3 If you're willing to PM me with your address, I have more than 100 Forever stamps I can send you--long story for why I have them, but I'll be happy to send them along to you. I no longer send snailmail, so…

Allie - glad you're doing ok... thinking of you, girlie! Lisa in AR

Allie: Hope all is going well, and that you're out of the ICU. I think of you every day. Tracey: My heart goes out to you and everyone there at the nursing home. I'm so sorry. The poinsettia is absolutely lovely. Barbara AHMOD: I'm so pleased the news was good for Joe's eye exam, and hope it continues that way! Flea: Loved…

Thank you, Barbie, for ushering us into December once more as a group! My goals for November were:* Be healthier * Be lighter While I did find out I had a-fib in November, it made sense of a number of issues I'd been having, and I'm now on what appears to be the right dosage, so I'm counting that as a win. I'm also three…

Hope everyone's Sunday is/was serene and peaceful, Egg is on my lap purring, curled into a ball. I'm sitting here "talking" to all of you, with the muted sounds of the washer and dryer running a few rooms away, as I get all the bedding cleaned this morning. The heating system just whooshed on, making me feel warm and safe.…
-
Morning, afternoon and evening, all, Allie I'm sorry that the a-fib showed up, but so thankful you were in the right place, with the right folks to make sure you're OK. Thank you so much for keeping us posted on you--have thought of you often during this long holiday week/weekend. I hate it so much when I don't feel…

Allie - glad you posted! What Beth said - in ICU, there's always someone if you need them. Rest and heal, girl. Machka - congratulations! The tornado siren woke me up about 20 minutes ago... so I got up and checked the weather radar (my office is an internal room, so the safest place anyway). It's largely already past us,…

Morning, afternoon and evening, all, Heather - Loved seeing your children's book in the hands of a child, and I'm sure you did, too. Sorry Johnny's hurting. Looked up gluteal tendinopathy, and it looks quite painful as well. Glad the tests they were able to show for you aren't very far out of the range they should be, hope…

Morning, afternoon and evening all... KJ - happy belated birthday, dear heart. Doesn't sound like it was loads of fun at all... but hopefully the "naked weekends" will help the training for your little guys. Anything else I say after that would just sound weird. :smiley: Allie - thinking of you, girl, hope you've been able…

OutSTANDing! Take care of yourself for us, check in when you can... Glad you're back with us... <3

Allie - thinking of you, girlie. Hope all went well.

The basic metabolic tests (including kidney and liver) showed me absolutely normal on everything (yay). The doc also threw in a magnesium test, so all my electrolytes were tested--many showed low in October and early November, but have all leveled out. Much like Heather (below) being able to see my results online can be…
