I had to have a couple of tries to get on today,,,,you know I'm a techno phobe Tony,and I'll really miss you all when they finally tip us over the edge
 
Do you really think "they", whoever they are, would deprive us a space to enjoy the weather+ for a moment? I thought weather+ topics were better than dwelling on the daily ups and downs of Crohn's 24/7 for 20+ years. Focusing on something lighthearted and fun each day has been a nice break! Let's hope the powers- that-be will reconsider! 🤷‍♀️ "They" probably would for a fee. Que Sera, que sera!
 
Its a winter day here -22C last night, glad to find everyone here on the upper decks as the stern rises and the water creeps into the boiler rooms below. This new thread reminds me of rearranging the deck chairs on a sinking ship. I hope they can fix the issues on this site, otherwise; farewell friends it was a great run here while it lasted. Its amazing making friends and holding conversations from around the world. Hopefully the lights will stay on for awhile here, and they can pump out the hold.
 
I found this site https://www.meetanostomate.org/ and signed up in case this site does go under.

I've written down the website Buff, just in case, but hope this site doesn't get more fussy amd zap us again. I like the "little rooms with an open door" format here.
Today we're having a sunny day with temp at 61°F now.... at nearly 2pm. I'm still cold though! People are always telling me it's because I don't have enough fat on my body! 🥴
 
Am I slow on the uptake...did y'all know there was a forum app. I noticed it in some obscure spot yesterday while browsing the site... so I downloaded it and it works much more conveniently than going to the website to log on, at least it is for me. I like it.
 
More surgery in my future, the doctor said I have a doozy of a hernia and to go easy on it until surgery, and that the surgery may or may not be complex. Hopefully they will not have to rebuild the stoma. Doctor said there are a lot more patients having issues with parastomal hernias lately for some reason but couldn't say why. An ultrasound for the urinary system as well.
-10C expecting some snow ahead of the next cold front, at least the doctor has said it is okay to cross country ski, as the coming cold weather looks good for it.

I don’t know if he is going to just stitch the area or use mesh, but there are different types of mesh used for hernia surgeries. You may benefit from learning what kind of mesh he will use, and the kinds of mesh used for the procedure in general. Also, some surgeons specialise in hernia surgery, I would get a second opinion from them.

Buff, I hope you can get a surgical appt. soon for the fix. My thoughts and prayers are with you.

My weather is sunny and 62 at 2:20pm. It's the lull before the storm though. I think we are in for some freezing, wet weather in a few days. 🤦‍♀️

Thanks Tony,we're good for now.It can only ever be one day at a time but we're doing OK. shopping,walks lots of conversations.He's eating good,sleeping good etc.but memory is iffy.That's not important,I've always been his memory hahaha. It was our 57th anniversary yesterday....don't know where the years have gone
A Happy Anniversary! 💞 💝 (May I call you Carol?). Anyway, congratulations to you and your husband!
 
Another nice day but a bit cooler.We had a walk into town and back but we really should have bused at least one way....Too many aches and pains now for both of us,but we're trying to do the things that we enjoyed before age crept up.....and it's not working.
The weather is going to change to wet and windy next week so maybe we won't feel that we SHOULD make an effort to go out....
 
Its on the mild side and gray, expecting a major drop in temperatures later in the day, and into the weekend we will be into an arctic deep freeze. When the cold arrives I will go ski and see how it goes with the hernia. I prefer skiing in the cold, the skis are easier to work and control when snow is cold, and the exercise makes and keeps me warm.
-5 Gray.
 
Our weather hasn't changed yet.... we in TX are waiting for Buff to open the gates in Ontario and send front down this way. Not that I'm eager for it to get here.... it will be too cold for me! 🥶🥴!!
 
typical January day here in Cobh , 11c dull but no rain , so good enough to get out for a walk ,
Hey Patsy
