Time to win under the Falls....cooling spray in the heatwave
Winning.........

Welcome to Mandyk
 
Heatwave has finally broken here. Feeling the relief after more than a week of heat and mucky humidity.
 
Sorry, not anymore. Morning all, so glad you got to see your brother Sandy. Hope everyone had an amazing weekend and a great week follows. I am training someone to do my job and it is interesting to say the least. Winning :ghug::rof::ybatty:

Remember Grumps.............Grit your teeth and smile :rof:
 
Well Mandy,you're putting us all to shame. I was here earlier,but got side tracked.

But I'm winning now....

The blue whales heart is about the size of a Volkswagen Beetle car.
 
Morning all, just checking in for the win before I go "grit my teeth and smile".... thanks for the advice Carol. She is quick, it's just really difficult not to say "get out of my way I'll do it myself", but then that defeats the purpose of training someone to do my job I guess. Can't wait till she is trained then I'll have some time off just for me. I'll probably be crazy after the first couple of days - oh wait already there....

I have a hard time "delagating" my job duties when I'm away. The jobs might get accomplished, just not the way I would do it. You'll feel better with some off time to yourself though.
 
Grumpy, what Shanen said.
Mandy, I'm glad you're here to put new life into this thread. Now if I can wake up enough to get anything done today.
 
No. Not got computer, as my laptop broke. Have money to get one, but been holding off to see what windows 10 pans out like. Though it has it's good points, it's release was rushed, leading to it being buggy.
 
well im winning for now scottsma, lol.. but im resigned to the fact you will blow me out of the water soon... haha

They are always quick to release new products then fix it after the fact. Maybe the quality control department should test it live with a group of consumers so they can fix it before it goes to the public. Just a thought...

They've been testing it with the 'insider preview project' for about a year, but the final release was put out to early.
 
Hey ducky, sorry to hear about the Iceland thing. Next time just keep asking him for advice on where the meat patties are, and use him as your guide to find what you want. I need a new computer too, but don't have the funds at the moment.
Hi ya Mandy and welcome to the thread, where are you from?
 
I can't blow anyone out of the water, as I'm a little duck, not a great big elephant.

That's too bad. I had a vendor call me the lovely B word today. That's really professional when you don't like what someone is telling you. I could have used a great big elephant...:kissgrits:
 
the rotter how dare he/she,my big elephants on it's way to sit right on his/her head...

Thanks Mandy. She didn't bother me, I just don't like being told what to do. She was asking me about payment status. I issues all the company checks where I work so it's probably not a great idea to make me upset. I tend to remember things. :ycool:
 
oh Trev you are naughty, you really need 3 b/c you just have to have a personal driver....
winning for now !!
 
Never put off 'til tomorrow what you can avoid altogether.

It's my pre-op assessment at 2pm.I've been really looking forward to it for ages(NOT) !!
 
Morning all, checking in for the win. Carol take care of yourself, need you back quick. Ducky, heard from friends that Windows 10 is not as good as the previous versions - does have some bugs - they suggest you wait till the updated version comes out (they are techies). Shanen, she is really good - but really slow and it makes me crazy cause I have one speed and it all out till I drop and I am sitting here going nuts. What takes her 2 hours takes me 30 minutes. Nice to read everyone else. Nice to meet you Mandy. Hope you all have a lovely day. :ghug::rosette2::kiss::ysmile:
 
Update....they gave me two dates.End of October or tomorrow,so tomorrow it is.
In at 8am and all being well,home later in the afternoon.

I'll be back soon so behave yourselves (fat chance !!!)

Might as well get it over with and not have lots more time to worry. We'll be thinking of you and wishing you well and a speedy recovery. :ghug:

(If I behaved people would really worry what I'm up to. As well they should.)
 
Just filled in the forms for medical EI, never done that before, waiting for my Entyvio dates, been approved for them should start next week.

Carol good luck and thinking positive thoughts for you! And you are right there is little chance that we will behave while you are gone.

Winning again for the moment.

Trysha
 
Lunch time win for me. Did you know you have more chance of being struck by lightning while having morning tea with Elvis, than winning the lottery.

Hi Mandy
No I am not in the UK.."...try Ontario.....Canada
We are awake while you sleep or are insomniac....
This boring conversation will lull you to sleep.."
Winning..
 
I hope Carol is doing as well as she can. Besides that, the only other things I have to say are aaarrrrrrrgggggggghhhhhhhh, and I'm winning, as long as i don't get that migraine I feel lurking, and my blood pressure doesn't make me feel like my heart is pounding out of my chest.
 
Think of nice calming thoughts Sandy, like lots of green in a forest, and breathe. In for 4 and out for 7. :)
 
Hope everything goes well for you Carol and that you have a swift recovery
Letting you have the win for now
 
Hello all, got my dates first infusion August 27th. Carol I hope that you are okay and I hope that everyone else is good too. Sandy no lurking headaches... Winning
 
Headache didn't come on full force a expected, but ache that comes out often in my chest did, (new heart med helps some and over all). This chest pain wasn't helped by throwing up night before last then lack of sleep last night in addition added to not feeling well. Almost went to the ER, but pain pill relieved pain in chest and gave me much needed sleep. Doing a lot better than few hours ago. (Knock on wood, I don't seem to know how I'm going to do one minute to the next and I'm tired of it. I'm sure you can all relate in your own way. )
Sorry for my gripe, just had to get it out.
I don't know if losing or winning. :ybatty:
 
I hear you Sandy, I'm now averaging 2-3 hypos a day while eating every two hours it's making me go nuts. Appointment is first September so not long now.
 
I hear you too Kirst. I was just told by one of my "ologist" docs that my A1C level was way too high and to follow up about my diabetes also with the doc following diabetes (just my pcp). :eek:
I'll think of you when i go to my appointment in about a week. I've been lucky and avoided the insulin itself (except when in hospital, and probably only avoided it because I ignore testing at times I know I should), but think that is going to change. Hugs to you. I don't know how you've done it. I'm sooooo afraid of that low blood glucose feeling.
Stupid diseases.
 
You make laugh, I love it [emoji3].
Sandy these days I don't feel much when I go low. I used to shake like crazy, but now it's a lot harder for me to recognise a hypo. That's what I hate I can drop from 10.8 to 3.6 in one hour. It's nuts.
 
Maybe that's why I don't test as much as I should?

Uh Huh and the grass is blue and the sky is green and the sun is pink....it could be in an alternate universe. Test more - get better - it also affects your heart - no more of that brat. Who would I talk to when things get rough? Furthermore - I think we are all winners - we are all still here and kicking some serious butt on these diseases :kiss:
 
I thought (thru my diabetic retinopathy eyes) that I the sun was pink (he he. 😄 My bad.) I should add that I do test in the morning ... about half the time. (My bad again. ) The heart thing is the one thing that might get me back on track again. I know diabetes can affect it greatly, and I promise to do better.
I just got a package of fresh food thru a food service I wanted to try (they supply ingredients and simple recipes for healthy meals), so I'm definitely winning. (Don't look Doug! I'm going to surprise you and actually cook tonight. ) I didn't even have to go to the store. :ysmile:

You mean we are going to have something other than fast food and frozen dinners. (Or me cooking dinner!)

Now I know what the Amazon.com payment was all about. Don't I:ylol:
