Trysha, I think life is lively enough for you. Keep grounded today! 💛
Shanen, I can't take aspirin or NSAIDS either, but for a different reason, because of the blood thinners I will have to be on for the rest of my life. It very much limits pain management, doesn't it? More narcotics for me, tho :biggrin:
Allie couldn't help but give one last pose for the time being. I told her she is getting to like her pictures too much so we have to put a stop to it for awhile, so she decided to go out with a doozy. (Mandy, Allie wants to know if you can support her in the manner to which she has become accustomed.)

Perilous Pitfalls more like Carol
Still debating whether to go out...they keep saying the storm is approaching...ever closer
Maybe I could beat it if I hurry
The local department store has some specials in the beauty section..Estée Lauder exclusives.
I might miss it all if I don't get there and I want to get these gifts for my family.
Can't use them any more,myself having developed so many allergies...due to too many drugs that don't work....
Winning.......
 
Sandy of course i would. Id treat like a queen her hun. ☺💕 i fear that she loves you to much to leave you tho ..
Mary poppins if you went on your shopping trip,hope you got some bargins Trysha💕💕
Carol hope you are keeping well to hun. I wont say and behaving as i know you cant.. :hug:
 
I did a Thelma and Louise yesterday. Went coast to coast with my neighbour 370 kms return to pick up some nice rocks, and sit with a mama seal and seal pups as huge waves crashed around us. I'll post pics tomorrow [emoji3]. I had an adventure, I got to wear my tramping boots, balance on logs over a swamp, walk through rivers and climb rocks! Now I'm totally buggered but happy.
 
Those are my kind of days, Kirsty! I'm glad you had a good time, now rest up.
I felt like I got a lot done yesterday (for me), which also felt good. I won't post a picture of my laundry tho.:ylol:
Hope everyone has a great day. Back to sleep for me (falling asleep as I am typing this. . .) :bigwave:Zzzzzz
 
Would love to have joined you yesterday Kirstie.....what a lovely time you had
But what is Thelma and Louise?
We had a huge snowstorm yesterday so I stayed within the four walls of my apartment...
Bored to tears...
Today it's street clean up day....tons of snow have to wait for its clearance by the city...they do a good job but there's so much to move.
Looking forward to your pictures Kirstie
Winning...
 
Thelma & Louise is a movie about two friends who went on a road trip.The good part was they got to meet a very young Brad Pitt,but they decided to drive off a cliff at the end of the film.
 
Today I looked in a mirror and didn't like what I saw.......so I went and looked in another mirror.
Now does anyone else do that,or is it just me ?

Winning
 
Na me too carol . Only thing is i still dont recognise the old face that peers back at me from any of the many i check. Who is she ??? :rof:

Mirror mirror on the wall
I am the fairest of you all
Since I went to the beauty salon today and left transformed
Not saying what I looked like before going though...........
Did get some compliments from sales clerks while shopping ........
That could have been biased since I was the last of the big spenders buying gifts to bring on my visit .
Also saw the GP today not very encouraging ...the latest ECG shows a defect in the left atrium...whatever that means...so off to the cardiologist for echo etc
The second bombshell was the bone scan results so off to the rheumatologist
for further evaluation and treatment
Now await appointment days...
At least other things are quiescent...you all know what I mean....
Did you see the picture of the lady tugging a huge alligator out of her swimming pool? It was very reluctant to get out....she was grimly determined tugging away with him on the end of the rope.....she won.
Bit mean not to share a big pool like that!
Winning.......

wow,I scrolled through all the post from the 'last read' icon.What keeps going through my mind as I read all the posts?I want a belly rub!Thanks...I needed that. Win,Win,Win...of course...hanging out on the coast with K,friend and critters and a belly rub...oh,wait.The dog gets the belly rub?Damn,I read that wrong.Win.
 
Good to see you back Dave........I guess all that reading kept you busy
How are things with you.....hope everything is ok ...
Winning.....
 
Trysha, you can't win for losin'! I think I'm going off to the beauty salon myself soon too, as my hair is getting out of control. It needs to be shaped so desperately, but I hate to cut any length off of it as it grows so slow. I also want to color my hair auburn again.
Mirrors? I just avoid them at present. Maybe soon I won't have to anymore...
Dave, we missed you! Glad to see you around! Just send belly rubs Allie's direction, and maybe she will send you a dog biscuit back in return. (Tee hee.) How's the wife these days? And your dogs? How's the health? Stick around...
 
Nice to see you Dave,I thought I had said something to upset you......as if !!!
Trysha,I thought you were going to say that the lady wrestling the alligator was you.
hahaha. I wouldn't have been surprised mind you.

Winning,and I will be back later to see if anyone has dared to challenge me !!!
 
Hi Carol
That was an awful ending to Thelma and Louise...unless they were rescued...why would they do that. ?
I would take on the alligator wrestle but will not for two reasons...the alligator is a noble and friendly fellow and secondly I have a balance problem (TBI)... Nuff said
Few snow flurries today plenty of snow to go around. The supermarket has a twelve foot mountain of it...slip sliding away..
Winning......
 
Ewwwwww! I don't think of alligators as noble and friendly fellows! Maybe they are noble in their own right, but they give me the creeps, and they are not friendly. Granted, they are just trying to survive. Just my opinion.
Mandy, I once, for a college project, wrote a poem called "Alleteration of the a Butterfly Battle" which reminds me of you. If I can find it, I will send you a copy. I was rather proud of that poem if I say so myself. :)
 
Good morning peeps.Did you know that in the last 3,000 years no new animals have been domesticated ? And very few husbands too,I may add.

Winning
 
Thanks Mandy, I do believe that I'm on the better than I have been in a long time side, health wise. Still have a cough, but a lot better, and for a change, I don't have some other strange illness moving in (knock on wood). Hope you are doing well.
But I'm winning. :dance: :dance: :dance:
 
Good to hear you are feeling better Sandy.....lets hope it stays that way especially with springtime around the corner...
We had more snow ....sigh...but the sun is shining today so it's not all bad... the snow does beautify the landscape transforms it and it's so lovely if you don't have to go out in it.
There are a lot of wild animals out there according to your report Carol...thanks for the info...
I suspect some have two legs........
Winning....
 
Hi all, glad you seem to be fighting fit (well,enough to fight over the win at least)😃 Sandy so glad your on the mend hun.
Today in 1946 Winston Churchill delivered his famous Iron Curtain Speech..
Oh well thats enough triva for now...
WINING 😇angelicly
💕
 
Today 47 yrs ago,our son was one hour old.It took him 2 days to finally make his mind up.
He's much the same now.I decided to stop at one,tried it once and didn't like it.
He's just emailed from Bali airport,so at least he made it after the "boys"weekend.
Winning excitedly.
 
Aw Carol. Bet it dont seem like 47yrs ago eh? Ye i only did the one to. Wise choice me thinks lol. Not long now hun. Woo hoo :dance:.
Back to you winning excitedly :dusty:
 
Snow is mostly gone here, exposing the dried up dead grasses from last fall. Need a good shower to rinse and renew the landscape but it's that time where it's not really winter anymore yet too early to be called full on springtime. I'm happy to see tulips and daffodils at the stores even if they are not yet blooming locally. Had to get a bouquet to brighten my table on cloudy days. 💐

Hi Shanen,I hope you're much improved.Is going back to work imminent,or is that a nasty four letter word ?
I just wanted to say daffs are flowering along our verges.
When Scott left school he worked in the gardening/grounds dept.for the local council.He planted millions of bulbs in our area. They always make me smile.I'm glad they're in bloom for his visit.
 
Shanen and Carol you are so lucky to be seeing the daffodils
All we see is ice and snow....lots of it...even though it was a lovely sunny day it does not melt...it's too cold
I am surprised the snow has left Minnesota usually hangs around longer than ours
Winning.....
 
It's awful early for the snow to be gone in Minnesota Trysha. It was 60 degrees Fahrenheit today. I know it can't last but I'm enjoying every minute I can while it's here.
I have one more week Carol and then it's back to work for me. Ugh. I'm really getting used to this being home business. I'm actually physically as ready as can be but i'm not looking forward to returning to work at all.
 
We have had days and days and days of spring weather, along with the brown lawns. A couple days ago I saw our first crocus in our yard. But sigh, a cold front, rain, and now snow are back. It was nice while it lasted. I love daffodils and tulips myself. However, right now I have a magnificent amaryllis blooming in my kitchen garden window that has been blooming at some level since Christmas. :)
 
Hope you are well recovered for your return to work Shanen
I thought it was a bit early for the snow to be gone your way ....
We have visited Minnesota a few times and found it quite chilly in September even,with frost on the ground......and quite glad to get back to balmy Ontario
Winning.....
 
We've had crocus out for a couple of weeks or more,but my faves are snow drops and they are out in abundance now.But the very best are bluebells,in late Spring, in a fresh leafy woodland.Then you know the winter has really gone.
I'm off before I start writing poetry,that's Trysha's forte.

Winning
 
Oh to be in England now that spring is there.....
Would love to have all those flowers surrounding me...
Do you ever talk to your trees Carol?
Brilliant sunshine here but the snow does not yet melt...
Hope we don't get any more..snow that is
Winning
 
Mm iv had no notifications on low today. Thus my late apperance. Had to go via new posts had this happen recently . Well im going to bed. Thinking of flowers thanks girls. ☺💕
 
Thanks Trysha i slept well. Got a notification this morning yeah!!. Oh well off to work soon.
Hope you all have a good day or night which ever applies. :hug:💕
 
Hi kirsty. Love the pics,that bay looks lovely. The hill is a bit of a puffer(out of breath steep) by the looks of it. ..hope your appiontment goes well hun. Love n hugs 💕💕
 
Thanks Kirsty,my sort of world.Hope you're doin' ok pet.
Trysha,I LOVE trees,and I get really annoyed when I get loads of junk mail.It's nothing but irresponsible.
 
Hi Mandy
What kind of notification....was it a website one..if so I also get them and Jennifer has said they are working on it
Kirsty..your pictures are lovely...you are clever to post them I have never figured it out
Hope you are feeling better
Carol I dislike junk mail also such a waste...but I have trees outside my front and side windows the front ones have to come into leaf in springtime the side one is a classic Canadian pine with loads of pine cones every year it's always green.
Winning....
 
Good Afternoon.....Oscar Wilde once remarked that "America was often discovered before Columbus,but it was always hushed up."

Now some of you might disagree but I think I deserve to win for that.

Oh, I so agree Carol, and anyone who knows history has to agree, the evidence is overwhelming. I don't understand why it is so controversial still.
I love the pics Kirsty. I'm relaxing just seeing them (but being there In person would be so much better.)
I love evergreen trees such as the Canadian pine, or another common one around here is the Colorado blue spruce. Alas, the taller of the evergreen species were all wiped out in this area in a terrible wind storm a few years ago. I have talked about this wind storm before, the one where our house (roof) hit our car after a little tornado. At least we ended up with a much needed new roof.
Today I'm winning because we are getting new flooring in our kitchen, dining and hallways in a few days. Woo hoo!:ysmile:
On top of that, we have a crew taking care of some much needed yard maintenance, clearing out overgrown bushes, trees, pruning roses, clearing weeds. Definitely winning today.

That's great Sandy,you'll be very posh.I love it when stuff gets done,and I can just sit back and enjoy it without having made too much effort.

There's a kid out our front has been kicking and bouncing a ball around for at least an hour.....so I'm winning because I haven't gone out and bounced HIM off the pavement. (YET!!!)
It's really getting right on my wick(nerves)
 
Hi Trysh. Ye i wasnt get some update notifications inc low. I msgd jennifer to let her know. Things seem ok now at my end.
Hope all are ok .love to all 💕💕💕
 
Carol........Do you really believe that someone other than Columbus discovered America
Could it perhaps be envy.....by Oscar?
About the bouncing ball...you need a peashooter to deflate it by remote control
Mandy...glad you are back online....

Winning......
 
Gastro was good. Upshot is he's going to do some thinking, watching and waiting. I'll try and take my two laxatives daily. He will give me another balloon dilatation for oesophagus so I can swallow properly again. He was talking about my butt and said there is another Thing I could try it's like the spray for angina, but for your butt. Oh the joys of being a f
 
Hi all here I am bright and breezy at 6 am, bringing cheer to the forum ☺hope you all have a good day.
Well that is enough of that, back to being tired and grumpy.. Boy that was hard work. 😴
Did you know that Napoleon Bonaparte married Josephine on this day in 1796!!
 
Trysha,I think maybe Oscar said that with tongue in cheek.
Kirsty,life must never be boring for you health wise,but I know you wish it was.
I'm amazed at how you all just get on with life.........you're fandazidobie,all of you.
 
Carol I could not find your fandaze word in the Oxford dictionary
Could you define it for me...
Kirsty..sorry you are having such a tough time ...feel better soon

Hi Trysha!

Leif Ericksen led a bunch of Vikings and settled in North America about 1000 AD. Little before Columbus discovered America. Hmm.
 
Who'd have thought it Doug......good to see you by the way....
Truth stranger than fiction.....
Winning......
 
It seems that whatever the subject, truth is stranger than fiction. For instance, I'd just about bet that everyone here's life would not be believable if written as a piece of fiction.
The backyard is now trimmed, weeded, pruned, (including dead bush removed), and looking better than it has in ages. It will be so much easier to keep it up this summer. It felt good on a nasty migraine I had today to just sit on a bench on the patio and watch Allie roll in the grass, and breathe the fresh just after a rain air.
Headache aside, life is getting better. :)
 
Glad you can enjoy your garden Sandy. I cant wait to be able to get out in mine. Weather just needs to warm up. Im feeling really poorly today so much so iv decided mot to go in work (not like me at all). Sick n runs since 4am
Argh hate being sick...😢
Winning while not winning !!
 
You must pay attention to what your body tells you Mandy.Glad you decided to stay at home.Just rest and don't try to catch up with housework mind.

There are two types of people.....good and bad.
The good sleep better,but the bad enjoy the waking hours much more.

Winning
 
Thanks Carol. Aye once upon a time i would have dragged myself in to work. Not anymore that behavour i have learnt to my cost does not help..
Love the little qoute there Carol,so very true lol 😃
 
Mandy..sorry to hear you are under the weather..feel better soon
There has to be a better solution for us all...billions in research..but where are we at.
So many on this website suffering daily without permanent relief.
Now for the upside....it's raining...hope it means no more snow.......
Winning....
 
Thanks Trysh . I think it was a bout of food poisoning . Things seemed to settled down again now phew... hate being sick dont mind the runs so much, thats pretty normal ish for me..good thing is i cant remember the last time i was sick.
Yep i agree there should be better treatments coming through the pipeline. A couple of years back i was like this everyday plus agonising pain with it. So im counting my lucky stars it looks like only one day of it..
Oh my i must lighten up this post .
If i knew how to i would paint it a sunny yellow ☺ :dusty: :dance: 💛💛💚💚

Mandy, the runs are basically normal for me as well. It is definitely a Crohnie world, isn't it?
 
For sure Doug...at least us crohnies are strong enough to rule the world, we dont get much choice in the matter mind..haha
Ruling the world and winning whilst doing it..its what we do 😉☺ 💕💕
 
Doing pretty good. I am still in remission, so other than the runs I have no symptoms. Feel good mostly. How are you doing Mandy?
 
Glad you are doing well Doug so pleased that you are feeling well. I'm doing pretty much the same as you. Apart from today's little blip.
I am seeing my Gi next week so I am hoping I'm still in remission. As I have no symptoms as such. Think its time for a scan tho just to double check the insides.
No point letting this begger creep up on me.... 🙅 no sir
Love n hugs to you and your lovely lady wife Sandy 💕💕:hug:
 
hope this has worked if so this is our new family member Lola. ☺
Oh boy it actually worked woo hoo 😀 rather large mind..

You've done it again Mandy,stopped everyone posting for almost 24hrs !!!

If you can't remember what you worried about last week
you haven't any troubles............winning
 
Don't remember last week but I clearly remember last year....what is the significance of this Carol?
A cold windy sunny day today
My heart won't stop aching for the innocent children suffering in the refugee/ migrant crises
People making money from the boatloads need to be stopped.
Winning.....
 
I agree Trysha.
I think the quote means,that if you've forgotten what you were worrying about,it wasn't that important.Not the serious stuff of course,but we're all guilty of worrying about silly little things.
 
So true Carol
My Maple Leaf Giant Lunar Moth is booked and at the ready to glide across the Atlantic
to the land of my birth.....
Keep the kettle on...
Winning.....
 
Who am I... I can't remember.. ☺
Kettle is on at mine to Trysh, you will be passing mine on the way to Carols.. You will need a pitstop by then hun ☺☺
 
Hi, I've just been riding a horse for two hours on the beach in the sunset. Who would've thought I would go that. I didn't even fall off when she started cantering, although I was close to it a couple of times. Fantastic! Balloon dilatation on Tuesday with an acalachia balloon. Need to redo my copper tests and also 24 HR wee test as my copper carrying protein was low. Runs must be going around, Mandy, as I have them too, as a constipated crohnnie the runs are few and far between. [emoji3]
 
Hi Kirsty. Wow how fabulous that must have been. I used to ride years ago. Never got to do the beach one tho ,except for the donkeys as a kid.
Hope all goes well on Tuesday hun.. :hug:💕
 
Hi Everybody......hope you are all in fine form today
Kirstie what a great time you had riding the horse...could not do that myself..well only a wooden one!
Mandy thanks for the invitation...I will ask my Lunar Moth to drop in but he prefers to be non stop...only two more weeks before travel
Cloudy sunny day and cold here....getting more like spring
Winning.....
 
The weather is improving daily Trysha. 13c and hazy sunshine today.The spring flowers are bursting forth and there's a tinge of green in the hedgerows.
Kirsty, WOW !!! riding in the sunset.Beats cycling any day.How's your butt ?
 
My kind of temperature Carol...
I can just smell the fresh grass of dawn with perfumes of flowers wafting in the breeze
Soon.......
Winning......
 
Cloudy and dreary today here but still nice enough to open windows some and smell spring in the air. Such great smells after being closed up all winter!
 
Honey, I'm home!
Another beautiful spring day here. It has been a little warmer than usual the past few weeks (but I'm not complaining as long as it doesn't get too hot this summer.)
Been busy with good things between migraines, but no horseback riding on the beach.
 
Hi all I am off work for a weeks holiday 😀.. Hope you are all keeping well as you can.
Off to see my Gi tomorrow, routine appointment but got a few questions for him. Let's see if he can give me some answers!!!
Love to all 💕💕
 
Making time for a win, I have such a busy life, spent the last week at the beach trying not to look at all the girls in bikinis. Just waiting for the kiwifruit to ripen and then off to work for 3 months.
 
Good luck tomorrow Mandy....hope everything goes your way
Now taking the win.....
Winning.....
 
Thanks Trysha, I will update later.
Nice of you to pop in Trev. You have been aa busy boy, lounging is such hard work 😀
Winning for now and hoping to be winning after the Gi appointment
💕
 
Hope all goes well Mandy,see you later.
TREV., I don't believe for a minute that you were trying not to look at the girls,you old lech.You'll be telling us next that you weren't wearing dark glasses and a peaked cap !!!

Winning before I dish up the roast beef lunch.
If anyones coming,hurry up.
 
Too late to take advantage of the delicious sounding lunch but thanks for the invite Carol
Hoping for good results from your appointment Mandy..
Cold dreary day here
Winning....
 
Hi well Gi pretty happy with me.. he is ordering a colo to have a look around.. oh such fun 😯..
