I couldn’t get in anywhere yesterday to see a doc. The clinics and my primary were all full. I have an appointment today at 3:30. I need to get the sinus/air infection treated. I coughed everything out of my lungs so the cough is better, thank goodness! That alone was doubling me over. I should be back to normal by the end…

I forgot to mention that when I went to my therapist last week, realized she offers the GLP1 shots for $30 a shot (reasonable I thought) so asked her about it. I cannot get them because I have thyroid problems. The type she gives is contradicted for thyroid problems, so out of luck there. Heading to doctor today. I’ll…

Welcome qupo6! Please sign your post with what you would like to be called and a general location like New Mexico, where I am from. I would start with the logging feature and log a week of everything you eat, water you drink and any exercises you do during that week. Then look at everything you posted and see where you ate…

Pretty sure I have bronchitis. Doctor tomorrow. I’ve done the zinc, vitamin C, lemon tea and honey, rest and lots of water. Just seem to be getting worse. Oh, well, C’est la vie! Thought for today: Why did the physicist and the biologist break up? They had no Chemistry! RVRita in Roswell

@Kylia I would get a new doctor too. My Primary doesn’t recommend vaccinations unless you feel like you need them. They also don’t prescribe meds unless absolutely necessary. They were not happy when my cardiologist put me on cholesterol meds, and when my kidney doc put me on a diuretic. These 3 disagree on a lot of stuff,…

I second it! We get a lot of Fifth-Wheels here, especially in the winter months, snowbirds and travelers. How does Kirby fair with backing that up and towing? Is it difficult to learn? Do you have a truck to pull it or have it towed? I’m thinking of upgrading mine this year as renting an apartment is starting to look like…

I feel like I’m coughing my lungs out! Nose sore, sinuses sore, ears sore, eyes phlemy, and nothing helps! If not better by Monday, I will go to doctor. If any of you have a PO Box and have had items delivered to the Post Office by UPS, that will no longer happen. It was called SurePost and the PO did not renew their…

I’m still sick. Sinuses feel like they are on fire, edge of nose is sore from Kleenex, and I was up all night coughing. So not much to say. I did read everyone’s posts. Oh, yes, my kidney doc called yesterday to do a phone appointment. All is well there and I don’t have to go to town. We got about 2 inches of snow total…

We have only had 2 storms with over an inch of snow in the last 7 winters we have been here. So this storm is a ‘whopper’ by dessert standards. Everything is closed and all the paid workers are not coming in. Any problems with campers, the come to my DH and me. No one is moving out there, so I don’t foresee anything much…

Woke up to a real snow today. Dogs took one look outside and did an about face! LOL The Wicket slipped on the bottom step and promptly sat in the snow. You should have seen the look on her face! Wicket is always good for a laugh, whether on purpose or not. She is such a clutz. Got my new iPhone 16 in yesterday. Easiest…

The early eye doc appointment went well. One of the lenses put in for the cataract surgery is beginning to show a fold. The doc said that was common and I didn’t need anything done yet but eventually will need to have it lasered. DH has a problem with the one eye he had a detached retina in, but he keeps refusing surgery…

I’ve been doing some digital cleanup. Yesterday organized all my contacts on my iPhone put them is lists and removed the ones I don’t need. I also unsubscribed from about 30 junk emails between yesterday and today. I also went through and deleted pictures that needed to be gone. One of these times, I will go through my…

Allie, I seem to know that restaurant! What was the name? I think I’ve been there for a Christmas party when I was working at the printing shop in Newington. Brought back instant memories! Prayers for all your stress. Hugs too…. RVRita

Fasting— I just figured out that I am fasting for 14 hours a day just out of habit. That I read somewhere is a good number for my age. I may increase that as time goes on. Vitamins— I take a good multi, magnesium, apple cider vinegar (which I am going to stop when I run out), omega 3 (which I am also stopping as my doctor…

Good news about my son, he didn’t take the call because he was at work (win 1). He asked for the psychiatrist phone number(win 2) which I gave him. He filled out all the new patient info and has an appointment (win 3!) He will keep the appointment as it is part of his court orders and he Knows he needs the meds. He knows…

@Mo, perhaps you could keep a small tree up and decorate for the season, like for Valentine’s Day (or Winter), Easter (or Spring), 4th of July (or Summer), Halloween (or Fall), then Christmas again? I’ve seen trees like these and they are beautiful and festive. Just my 2 cents! 👽 RVRita in Roswell

Yesterday was pretty quiet for me. Heard from entire family by text (except middle daughter of course, but her husband did text, so all good). Talked to my mom over the phone (she doesn’t text. Believes technology is evil!) and she was in a good mood. I think they have her meds sorted now. This morning got awoken by a…

Hugs to Carol and Barbiecat. You know this group has you in our hearts and arms. Allie and everyone else with stressful family, the same goes to you. I’ve had a busy and stressful (more than usual) couple of days. Spent 3 hours on the phone to FINALLY find the package with the new iPhone, watch, and iPad in it. It finally…
