I'm back for a short whine and win ('nuf said, most of you around lately know my recent goings on), with an added GJ! YOU'RE BACK! Stick around for awhile. I've missed you. (But I may or may not have time to respond until Tuesday.)
Trysha, I agree with Aristotle, but that raises a whole other set of questions, like what about those that are born into our thrust into situations like extreme poverty or war, or those with chemical imbalances thru no fault of their own causing depression, or handicap of some sort or another (or even illnesses like happens amongst this group here, tho you are all incredibly strong people emotionally), and those that don't have a chance at real happiness? Or those that don't think there is a purpose in life, it just happens? I have my own theories on that, but methinks I'm already opening a big can of worms by saying what I said. For that reason, I will say 'nuff said by me (again) and nobody really need reply, but it is food for thought. And since it is 1:40 am here, I'll say, like has been quoted recently, "to sleep, perchance to dream ..."
Oh, and I win!
Zzzzzzzzzz..
 
Well I'm assuming you're all tucked up in bed out of harms way,so I win.But you all know I'm the champ so I don't need to keep telling you.
 
No no no no no !!!! that's not fair.You're both disqualified,now go to sleep or else there'll be big trouble.
 
Good morning Madhu ☺

Oh i think you will find i can win Sandy... maybe not here but iv got jaxon today so big win for me ☺☺

Mandy,give that sweet boy a hug from me please.It's years since I held a baby in my arms. And I know you're not filling the "pond" in, as my dear dad used to say "I've seen more meat on a leather lace" (Please don't be offended)x
 
Big hugs to all of you. Mom woke up at 8 (late for her) and I now dare take a nap as she won't be panicky if I'm not awake when she wakes up ('cause I'm already awake) and she can deal with me taking naps better than she can my not waking up at about the same time as her or before. She was even a little panicky when I didn't wake up about the same time as her when Doug was here and awake the other day.
I hope everyone has a pain free and healthy day, or at least a lot better day than you have been having.
Carol, I'll let you have the win now.😚

That's OK.,I'm still considering my resignation....
 
My turn...while things are looking pretty good today, aside from me still being sore from falling on Saturday (tripped, fell onto my hip/back outside....due to not paying attention)....

Oh, I did forget my Lyrica at home today, I took it this morning but I can tell it is wearing off! Good thing I should be home by around 3pm.....but it's going to be a long couple of hours!
 
Lisa, ouch! I am joining you in the sore back club. I have had a bad cold for days, and this morning I coughed so much that I think I pulled a muscle in my back. Ow! Not fun.

Aw, Alex sounds like such a good dog. My dog follows me into the bathroom regularly but only because she wants to see if I might be taking her for a walk or giving her a treat. :p If I tell her "No walk, no treat" then she leaves the bathroom. Or if I was intending to take her for a walk, I say, "Oh, should we go somewhere? Should we go to the park?" and then she freaks out with excitement, ha ha. Dogs are so smart! I swear mine understands English very well.
 
I have had several dogs over the years, mostly Lhasa Apso, that I swear could understand every word I said. Funny how that works. They are smart enough to play dumb too. LOL
 
I hope you are OK Julie. Dogs are very smart, yours sounds very cute as well. :)

I worked with dad today and we cleaned out the greenhouse. It seems awfully late but mother nature has a mind of her own that's for sure. That reminds me I need to turn off the sprinkler... ;)
 
Here is a picture of him. And you be careful out there. Enjoy the dirt!

Your dog is adorable Julie! I love animals myself! My mom with dementia who has been with us most of the last week or so claims not to like dogs, but I could tell she was enjoying having Allie (our Boston Terrier) sit on her lap occasionally. I saw her sneak a lot of head scratches to Allie also. Unfortunately, although the day was good in other ways, today she seemed to forget she was getting used to Allie and back to cringing when Allie wanted anything to do with her. Boy, is her memory going fast! But we had some good talks too, so it was a mix of good and bad.

Well, today I found out I have to go back on oxygen in addition to my c-pap, but only at night thank goodness. I hope "Chester", the heart monitor I'm wearing this month, doesn't show anything new, especially when I'm feeling some sort of palpitations right now. That said, I better drag my behind to bed as it's late again. Get to take my mom to the airport tomorrow. It's been an adventure.

Big gentle hugs to all.
 
Make sure to have plenty "you" time Sandy.I know you won't be surprised at how much your "adventure" has taken out of you.
I'm off to the hairdressers.I've been trying to grow my hair but it's not working.I'm a "tidy" freak and between the windy weather we've been having and cycling,it's a mess.Unless I stay indoors,and that's a bit drastic to have tidy hair.It's an awful day.Very windy and wintry showers forecast.
 
I just need to vent, you guys. A whole bunch of little, stupid stuff is piling up on me lately. I still have a cold and I woke up coughing in the middle of the night and coughed so much I nearly puked. Couldn't stop coughing and had a hard time sleeping after that. And now I have a bad headache too. And I think my IUD has shifted or something because I'm suddenly getting all sorts of cramps in that area and of course that's making my guts a bit unhappy too. I have tons of zits from pred and I still can't seem to get off of pred. My job is still a stressful nightmare with continued rumors about layoffs, we have a new regional president at work and I'm pretty sure she hates me (she at least hates the work I do, I mainly do spreadsheets and she apparently hates spreadsheets). Oh, and when I got up this morning, I checked on my pets, and I found that one of my pet gerbils is dying - I checked on my gerbil and saw that he was having a seizure, that's pretty horrible. So I'm feeling sick and in pain and stressed and sad. It's one of those days where I just don't want to be a person today. I just want to hide and hibernate and not talk to anyone. But I can't, so I guess instead it'll be a day where I go cry in the bathroom stall at work when I can sneak away for a few minutes.

I hope everybody else is having a less overwhelming day than I am. Big hugs to everybody.
 
:hug:Hugs to you cat. I'm sorry. Sometimes that cry is the best thing!! Hope things feel better for you later. Although these days happen to us all differently. Again gentle hug don't want to hurt and talk later💜Julie
 
Ah Cat,I think you could do with 10 minutes at the punch bag.But that might start a coughing fit so maybe not.I know it's early morning there (2-45pm here) but the day will get over as they always do.Sorry about your little gerbil though,I hope she pulls round.
 
My gerbil died (his name was Watson). It's okay, he's out of pain now, and he was quite old (2 years 7 months, and anything over 2 years is considered old for a gerbil). It's sad though because they're social animals, so now his brother Sherlock is all alone and is going to be lonely. Poor gerbil. Sherlock is also 2 years 7 months old, so I don't think he'll last a whole lot longer without his brother, given his advanced age.

Carol, I don't think I could hit the punching bag right now, my headache gives me sharp head pains every time I cough so I think it'd be the same for punching. I'm in survival mode today, just trying to make it from one moment to the next. In pain, sad, exhausted, sick. I hope this day doesn't throw anything else at me because I'm not sure I could handle it.
 
Cat, life just isn't easy, is it? At least I've never found it to be so. Sorry about the gerbil, cough and headache, etc., have a headache myself today and still cough daily since my lung function test at the beginning of Dec., and have had many times close to throwing up myself from the cough as it can affect the gag reflexes. In fact I have thrown up a few times from it when my cough was worse, but not for awhile now. My cough is much less than before, thank heaven. I'll give you Carol's advice to me, make sure you take time for yourself.
As for being able to do that in my little corner of the world while mom here, ha ha ha ha ha! She follows me from room to room, always afraid she is going to need something, and have to say she has always liked others to take care of her. Still, she used to value having her own space as well so this is new for her. I'm able to post only because she is packing right now (but I'll have to go back and redo it.) She woke up today and asked "so, am I doing anything special today?" I said, "Yes, you're flying home." Then she asked "Do I have a ticket?" She better have! I'm apparently going to have to find it in her luggage and pin it to her chest like teachers did in the old days with small children (like when I was young.) The only other "me time I get is when she is occupied with bathroom needs or sleeping. She did let me nap yesterday however, mostly because she couldn't stop it (as I can't myself when I need it.) Doug, who has not had the best work experiences himself lately, even says "I'm going to work to get some rest." I'm so glad she didn't take us up on our offer before her move to Indiana to have her live with us!!! I won't even go into the cutting remarks she has made ...
(Apparently, she is as ready to leave us as we are her as she just wheeled her suitcase out and her flight isn't for a few hours.)
Well, back to reality. At least mom's reality.

P.S. I had to wait to proof read this (my writing is always full of mistakes if I don't and even when I do it has its fair share) while in the bathroom.
 
Hey all,

I'm a Scot, Irish and English.

This resonates with me.

“a nod’s as guid as a wink tae a blind horse,” ........(meaning, explain yourself properly, and make your meaning crystal clear.)

Just thought I'd share.

Cool, I'm a Scot, Irish and Sweedish
 
Can someone give you a scalp massage. Cold rag on back of neck. Hot shower on scalp all these work pretty good for me.
 
Those are good ideas,

I had a separated shoulder from playing rugby years ago. It pulls on my neck and a headache ensues. Heat, cold and massage all help me. Headaches suck!
 
I am getting a bit dissalousaned with this thread, i have been posting on LOW for 7 years, how long does it take to win????

At least i have made some great friends along the way, maybe thats my prize.
 
Ooh, the friends aren't fleeting!
Thanks all for well wishes and advice. Jane, those things often have helped me in the past in part or full (or moist heat on neck is another one) but I ended up sleeping it off, it appears that is what I needed most. I'm much better now, not entirely headache free, but day and night difference.
How is everyone else?
Carol, I'll PM my take on T info soon.
 
Mandy,give that sweet boy a hug from me please.It's years since I held a baby in my arms. And I know you're not filling the "pond" in, as my dear dad used to say "I've seen more meat on a leather lace" (Please don't be offended)x

Haha that reminds me of the saying more meat on a butchers pencil...course im not offened Carol. Sorry but babakins had gone home before i read the post but i will give the hug from you next time i have him .💕
 
Hi all...hope those feeling crappy feel better soon 💞💞
Iv been missing updates again for a day or so.
Big hugs,love n support to you all..:ghug:xxx
 
That moment when you've not had a BM for 3 days and things finally get moving. Yeesss!!!

So sorry about your gerbil, Cat. I hope things start to improve for you soon. You definitely deserve better :hug:

More hugs to all :ghug:
 
Sorry for your loss of your pet it's hard, but at least no more pain. Yep we so appreciate a semi BM our wishes are simple now huh. lol
 
Thanks, guys. I'm making sure to give extra attention to my remaining gerbil, Sherlock, since I know he'll be lonely now. He seems to be adjusting okay though. I'm not sure if gerbils can grieve, but surely he must at least be aware that things are different now. So I'll give him extra toilet paper tubes to chew on (he loves those) and extra yummy treats in his food dish and hopefully he'll be happy.

And I got myself a "cheer me up" gift of a new Lego set, and I'm having sushi for dinner tonight. It can't be all bad if Legos and sushi are involved, right? ;)

Sandy, yay, you survived! I bet it's a bit of a relief to have the visit over with. I'm exhausted just thinking about spending that much time with my grandma - dementia is so hard. How's Allie doing these days?
 
Oh Cat, I can't keep up with myself right now. I didn't notice your post that your gerbil had actually died until several hours later. I'm so sorry about that. I think Allie is stabilizing, it seems almost like we get over one hill with her and then something else comes up (both with her and with us.) Right now though, she seems as well as she can be.
When I was growing up we had gerbils, but they multiplied so fast there was never just one or two, so I really don't know their social needs. And I was very young then so don't remember.
Regarding my mom, I know I could never do that again. It was just luck that she came at one of my better physical times of the past few years, but it also took everything out of me and then some. I slept most of the afternoon yesterday then all night solidly, and slept in this morning. I slept more than not in a 24-hour period. I'm really surprised I didn't have migraines while she was here, at least not full-fledged ones. I have noticed a couple of heart issues (that will be recorded on my heart monitor thank goodness), including one quite serious syncope episode yesterday, while just sitting, just before I had to take Mom to the airport. Since I didn't have any other way to get her there at that point I had to still drive and hope that nothing else happened. That was ok. Getting there was a bit of a challenge, tho, as it was pouring rain, traffic was bad, my mom is terrified of even riding in a car in normal situations (and has told me this whole week that the only person she trusts driving is my sister Judy, the one in Indiana whose daughter lives and was married here this week), then I couldn't even get a handicapped parking spot any where near where I had to take her into the airport terminal. I walk much slower than most people (and with my cane), and she walks 10 times slower than me and really needs a wheelchair which we couldn't get until in the building with the airline she was going thru. We almost missed her flight because of how long it took to walk from the parking lot to where we could get assistance. When I called my little sister to tell her she was in the hands of the airline who was taking care of her so on her way back to Indiana, my little sister made some snide comment about how I shouldn't (ie couldn't) handle distractions when driving, all because I mentioned I won't use my cell phone when driving like some people do so I was calling before I left and needed to go before I got charged for an extra hour. (I know from mom Judy talks on the phone while driving.) I don't think she has ever even been in the car with me when I have been driving for over 30 years and has no idea of my driving skills, and I pride myself on being an extra safe driver (in spite of the syncope episode she didn't know about). I won't go into all the little remarks my mom made because I know a lot of it is her dementia. However, I have been going through a lot of family drama the last couple of years especially and have wondered if I even want to keep in contact with most of them. It's kind of sad because my family has been quite important to me, but the only time they seem to want to be around me is when they want something. I'm just tired of being the one that is used and then neglected, or worse, often thought of as the weak one in the family when I have been the one to step up to the plate when nobody else would and I was the least capable physically, and then they get together when in town and don't invite me to these little get togethers they have and of course I feel a little not wanted. It doesn't help that my religion teaches that family is the center of everything on this earth, or at least should be. They don't expect us to stay in abusive situations, but it is complicated. So I am struggling. Actually, most of this came to a head over Thanksgiving when I invited a bunch of family but nobody would come, saying they were going this way or that, but they all got together without telling me about it ( I found out through a fluke). These latest family get-togethers didn't help much over this past week, though my sister in-law did reach out to us and take Mom home an extra night after the wedding day (very long day so was appreciative) and after mom complaining about our place and the air mattress she told us she was very comfortable on, then my sis in law did have us for Sunday dinner. She even went so far as to look up Crohn's friendly foods, nobody has done that before.
Took longer writing this then expected, need to go finish working on some ribs I am making for dinner. Doug will be surprised I have dinner ready before he gets home if he doesn't see this here. I'm usually too wiped out at that time of day to cook.
Sorry folks for the long family rant.
 
P.S. I bought myself small bouquet of flowers again today, Cat, then added some lilacs from my yard. It is quite pretty and does help cheer me up.
 
Rant on Sandy that's horrible. I cannot imagine having a non supportive family. Mine have and would do anything for me. We all would for each other whenever needed. That saddens my heart for you. Sometimes you need to distance yourself just to make yourself healthy from people who hurt you. Surround yourself with others that can be like a family. We had a grandma and grandpa that weren't really ours but we spent so much of our lives with them and it was like ours. My thoughts and prayers are with you darling.
 
Hi Sandy,

We are here for you buddy. :ghug: I hope you can relieve some stress. Sometimes family problems can be so tough to deal with, that certainly doesn't make it fair though. You deserve better. Sending big hugs and support. :)
 
Thanks all, it really does help to have all of you out there in various corners of the world. And I do have some good friends and neighbors around here, and even old friends in general vicinity from high school days who are very good friends (~gasp~ some for 40+ years), but I always thought we had a caring, but somewhat dysfunctional, family until years of late. The worst has been this year so I'm a little sensitive. I appreciate you letting me vent.
 
Sandy, I almost bought myself flowers today too! But when I looked at the flower display in the store, I suddenly remembered that today is "Administrative Professionals Day" (formerly known as Secretaries Day). So I got some flowers for the receptionist at work instead of for myself. I'm the back-up receptionist and she helps me out on a lot of my projects, so I like to stay on her good side!

Syncope means fainting, right? Or something similar to fainting? That sounds scary and I'm glad you were okay driving. I hope your test shows what's going on with that and how to treat it.

Yes, gerbils can reproduce a ton and very quickly! Fortunately it's pretty easy to tell what gender a gerbil is, so I've only ever had one gender at a time - my current gerbil and the one who just died are both males. They don't fight like 2 male hamsters would, they cuddle and (usually) enjoy each other's company. That being said, my previous pair of gerbils were 2 females, and one kept trying to dominate the other. Then the dominant female died, and her sister seemed much happier being alone! That's the only time that I had a gerbil who was happier being alone than being with another gerbil.

It's been a super sad week for pets at my workplace - a friend of mine in another department just had to put down her dog, and then I just found out today that another co-worker's cat just died suddenly. So we've all been a bit sad at work lately because of our pets.

As for family, that sounds really hard. I've been distancing myself from my family a little bit lately too, especially from my brother. He's just a difficult person and he causes me nothing but stress, so for my own well-being, I need to not talk to him any more than absolutely necessary. I think you should do what you need to do for your health. If your family is stressing you out then it might be best to at least take a step (or a few) back for a little while.
 
You don't know how much I appreciate all of your kind words. Big hugs to all of you. You all deal with your own set of challenges, I can't imagine having an IBD. IBS, etc is bad enough. Plus each person has their own challenges non health related. Life just has a way of throwing things at everyone. (And I find those that haven't been thru much a bit shallow.)
 
We're all here for each other. Rant on, as much as you want :) I have been lurking offlate, but I am reading all your msgs. Hugs to everyone xx
 
Madhu, I'm glad you're there too. And yes, Cat, syncope is fainting or near fainting, I could feel a different rhythm very suddenly (and not pleasant) going on in my chest, then everything start to go black. It happens very, very fast. I wasn't all the way out, but close.
Poor Carol has been hearing about my family for awhile in PMs, so she got a double dose today. I guess it had me more stressed than I thought when I messaged her about that, plus responded about a person who used to be here in the forum that I had a falling out with. The old timers here would know who that is. (She's not here anymore, she's banned for other reasons.)
I really appreciate each and every one of you.
 
Hi Sandy,

I know we all have challenges, but don't ever think that you are a burden to me. I can really relate with you on a lot of things. I just happen to like you and I really appreciate your friendship. :)
 
Hi Sandy....I would say you are approaching sainthood for all the care and concern you have shown to your mother.
It has to be one of the most difficult tasks in the world to care for an Alzheimer's patient. And you are truly noble and fore bearing in taking such good care of your mother.,especially when you are so ill yourself.God will bless you for all the unselfish caring.
You really should be in touch with the cardiologist regarding your physical status....the attacks you are getting require qualified attention as soon as possible.....never mess with your heart...it is the essential motor which drives us..
You may need a change of medication.
You have certainly been through a most stressful time especially without support of your family members.
It is now time to become a little selfish in the interests of your health, and for you to work closely with your physician(s).
It never rains but it pours and poor Doug is also going through the added stresses with his Workplace.
Lots of prayers and caring for you both... from
Trysha and I'm sure all of us on LOW...
 
Hi Trysha, I'm just reading your post, late evening, I told my cardiologist that I had a couple such episodes in Jan and Feb, and occasional dizziness, and that is why I'm wearing this monitor again. This monitor is also, well, monitored at least daily by the company that supplies them to the doc, and they, according to their literature, send daily reports to my cardiologist's office as well as an end report. They say that if they notice anything that needs attention immediately they would immediately contact the powers that be and take appropriate action. I'm pretty sure I'm ok for the time being at least. I will say PH isn't something to be taken lightly tho.
I found out at my niece's reception from a first cousin (that I hadn't seen in years) that she has it too, and it is supposed to be a rare condition. It kind of scares me because familial PH is the most dangerous kind. They have classified mine as secondary, not familial, due mostly to my pulmonary emboli I had a while back and sleep apnea. To be familial, I think they look more at sibling, parent and grandparent history. I'll ask my doc. I also saw a younger cousin on my dad's side, the "other side", who I also hadn't seen in years at the reception who also has had heart issues, along with his identical twin brother. They have had AFIB, a kind of arrhythmia that can be deadly, and have had to have heart procedures done thru catheterization processes.
Oh! I almost forgot something major! My sister Leslie's only "child" (in his thirties) who lives in Hawaii developed pulmonary embolism while she was visiting him and was hospitalized just before she came out for the wedding goings on. I do believe there is something genetic going on in my family, but exactly what, I don't know yet. Another niece was also born with Major heart problems. I will send my cardiologist's office an email tomorrow about all the above to see if he recommends anything different before the next scheduled appointment.
Tomorrow I also have part two of two of a diabetic education class. Did I mention she scared me last week when she told us the number one complication of diabetes, even above neuropathy, etc., is heart attack? Not what I wanted to hear, since I already know I'm at very high risk.
(No stress going on in my life, ha ha ha ha!)
 
P.S. Did i mention Chester (the monitor) has his own cell phone? All "events" are sent over cell phone signals, so I'm now carrying two cell phones with me. (I can't use his as a cell phone tho.) I just press the button if I notice something and answer questions about what my symptoms are and what I was doing. Its multiple choice questions all in a program, I don't have access to other parts of the phone. I have to have Chester's with me all the time.
 
Oh Sandy girl...you are a strong lady. What you go through is alot more than some could deal with. I wish things could be better for you. As i do for many others on here.
Im so proud of you and others here too many to mention by name.

Sending big hugs love n support to you all. I love you all here and very much appreicate your friendships so much.💖💕💝💞
 
Sandy...you are placing your life in the care of machines....and hopefully the people supposed to be monitoring them will be doing just that.
.i am afraid I would not have that kind of trust with ongoing symptoms and would much prefer to notify the cardiologist...just in case
.One phone call could save your life....
Squeaky doors get the oil....
 
I will call them today Trysha and I will call them the moment anything happens in the future. I appreciate your concern, I guess I am a little nervous about reporting things right away as I have had so many negative experiences with doctors at the ER (even when I had life-threatening conditions), and I know that is where I would be sent. I think my conditions are well enough documented now that I shouldn't worry. It's just ingrained at this point. Must be off to get ready for my diabetes class and I will call as soon as there is a break. The person over the class is also one of the specialists at the cardio rehab I went to, so I can also discuss it with her as she is both nutritionist and cardio rehab nurse.
 
Just back from a three hour cycle ride.Really enjoyed it,and it had the added bonus of newly hatched goslings.I managed to get two new sofas yesterday.They wont be here for 6-8 weeks as they're made to order,but that gives us plenty of time to redecorate and buy new soft furnishings.But oh,how I wish it was done.
 
Sandy, I agree with Trysha and I'm glad you're going to call. That sounds really scary, especially with the family history and everything.

Carol, that seems like a long time to wait! But hopefully it's worth the wait. If we lived closer I'd crochet you a blanket for your new couches. :) Maybe if Mandy keeps filling in "the pond" and if Sandy gives me a ride on her kayak... ;)
 
Hope you feel better, Sandy! And everyone else.

I just got back from my 2nd visit to the DMV. All I wanted was a driving license. First they wanted to re confirm my immigration status, so they sent me home though I showed them my valid visa. Today everything went well but my God, they are so rude. It's like they think everyone who comes in is dumb. I felt so intimidated and angry that they treated me like this. I have my road test in a couple of months and hope it goes well. Sometimes, they keep reminding me that it sucks to be an immigrant here.
 
Cat,I'm going to buy new throws.Having had dogs for years and years and years,we've always had leather sofas. .Not because they got up,well Alfie did,but our German Shepherd Dogs,just had to walk past to leave a trail of hair on the sides and back when we did have fabric.The new ones are fabric and I'm a coffee/tea dribbler,so throws might be the solution.The shop tried to sell me a cleaning kit for £50 !!! The cheek.They should have been free the amount of cash they took from me.

Sorry folks for boring you twice,it's an age thing.I don't know how to delete it. :sign0085:
 
Carol, you know that I have magic powers. :) I've deleted the duplicate post. But now your post apologizing for the duplicate makes no sense - sorry!

Madhu, sadly my magic powers do not extend to the DMV. If it helps any, I've never had a good experience at the DMV here either. It's always, take a number and then wait for at least an hour and then explain what you need to an extremely disinterested and rude person who directs you to go wait in another line... ugh. Good luck on your driving test, I hope it goes well so that you can get your license and avoid the DMV for a nice long time!
 
Hi Madhu,

I'm so sorry to hear that you were treated like that. I have had similar things happen here in Canada when dealing with the government.

It is just so frustrating to be treated like a second class dope. All I can say is they probably just dealt with a real jerk right before you came in. That is still no excuse though.

I happen to think you are a very nice lady. :)
