I win!
 
Don't know why it takes so long. Probably because it is such a high resolution camera and picture. Did Doug like the lighthouse?
 
Oh, that would do it. I love the Stouffers chicken ala king. Have you ever tried that one? Talking about frozen entrees.
 
not that particular one, just the chicken and rice bake (Stouffers) we had for dinner.
Doug is very impressed with the lighthouse picture. he loves it!
 
I hate those things, they freak me out. We used to have a bunch of them coming out of our vent at our old apartment. I would smash them as fast as I could! They have a very nasty bite! But I know you don't!:lol2:
 
Hey Sandy! Been super busy lately. I have been getting ready for three different events at church. May is going to be a super busy month. I am also working a second job so it has been busy.
 
Before I moved to Chicago to go to school, I worked at a local bank for the building manager. She does everything at this building so she is very overwhelmed. She is also fighting cancer right now too. So I am working for her, mostly on Fridays, but I will be there tomorrow, Thursday and Friday this week. It is pretty easy and it is mostly answering phones, taking messages, greeting clients and trying to solve people's problems. I have worked there for a long time, so I can solve most problems. I am also able to work on church stuff while I am there too.

That sounds awesome GJ. Glad you get to do that for her. Poor thing!

you and Cheryl! Working at banks. good for you! Can I have a ( large) loan at 1% interest?
 
Yeah. She is having a hard time and she has a terrible doc. Thankfully she changed recently so I hope she does not get sick after this round of chemo this week.
 
so sad! I had cancer but thank God I didn't have to have chemo. Surgery got rid of it. I was so blessed!!!! Poor girl! :ghug:
 
Nope, I am afraid not Sandy. I work for the buiding manager, so I am not really in the bank unless I have to go make deposits, or make faces at tellers through the glass elevators! lol!

I'll just have to settle for you as a friend then, too. :)
 
I've got to go out the clean sheets on the bed. Doug is snoring in his chair. LOUD! bee right back.
 
Well, I'm afraid I am going to have to get my butt to bed. It is almost 1am and have to get up and take my sister to Pittsburgh to see the plastic surgeon for her foot. She lives about 20 miles from me, then Pittsburgh is another 24 from her house. Busy day, but we will have a great time being together. Say a prayer it all goes well, ok? Love you guys! Gals I mean!:ghug:
 
forgot to finish making the bed. sorry I disappeared so fast. clean sheets and clean bedspread makes me happy !
 
My daughter (22) has just given up her 'safe' office job after 3 years and is moving to Magaluf, Spain, with her friend to work in a bar. Magaluf is a 'party' town - where young Brits go on holiday. She has no job of accommodation to go to - but needs excitement in her life.

I actually support her decision - what do you think?

Safe is for when you've had a life,when you can look back and say "I'm glad/sorry I did that".......She's not a child and you can only hope you've done your bit, as best you can,and support her.And try not to worry.She knows you're there for her,if she needs you.
 
^^^It depends on the 22 year old and the reason for going, I'd say! When I was 22, ^^^that would have been bad news! Actually, it would simply have been transplanting what I was already doing to another town. But hey, I'd probably speak Spanish by now:)
 
I left home at 18 and move to south island. I spent 9 years there 4 years studying and 5 working.
 
I'm having a Harry potter moment. The embers in my fire look like a man with a goatee, square jaw, straight nose, eyes were squinting. I didn't open the fire box, just in case ....
 
Ha ha ha. I'd like to see you try :)

How large is the cupboard? Now a pantry would be ok:)
 
Good morning all. Lost an old friend yesterday. She had ataxia for 3 yrs. now. She was only 53. Her husband died in front of her on a motorcycle 5 yrs.before. So she is with him in heaven now. Happy for her.:ghug:
 
So do I :) in an hour I can take more pain meds. It's 1:00 am now

If it's past four hrs, you can take them now. They used to say 6-8 hrs. but my Dr. said four so there is no breakthrough pain. It takes an hour for them to kick in anyway. I know, do what your Dr. said!

I was married at 18 and a mother at 22.Still wed to the same fella but sometimes.......................I wish I'd gone to Spain:lol2: (only sometimes though,like 6 days a week)
 
You all have been busy here putting up so meny new pages I cant keep up.

Sorry about your friend T.

I think it will be good for her to go to Spain Robert. Even if its a party place. I had a friend go to Brazil to teach slum children englis and THAT was dangerous. They where not allowed to go out wit out a male company. But she grew up a bit there. She was a bit older then your daughter.. maybe closer to 30, but still. I am sure your daughter will learn a lot about herself being on her own away from family. Like you I would have picked Australia. My dream to go there someday. But I would never make the flight there in the healt I am now.

And to the rest hope everyone feels better. I am still tired and tomorrow is a super long day since one of the stoma companys is having a "Good Life" seminar and I want to attend it. So going there after work (a friend will pick up my dog to stay with her for the evening).

And I did talk to my boss about the water break problem and it is solved that instead of working 9-2 I will work something like 12 to 5 (well. .I plan to leave by 3-4 and make up the hours later). But I know a day like that will wear me down too. Cant wait till weekend. And next week wednesday is national holiday here (we get May day off). YAY!

*HUGS* I win!
 
good for you for taking to your boss! I think that was the correct way to go. I'll keep you ( and all of us) in my prayers for energy.

I thought I would sneak in a win while Teresa is off with her sister. ( Tee hee.) Well, I'm off to see the wizard for a short while.
hi ho, hi ho, it's off to work I go ( just at home)
 
Teresa, I am very sorry about your loss too. Thank you for reminding me in that other email what is important.
 
Maybe good of me to talk with my boss, but I almost wish I would have been a bit dishonest and just called in sick. With how I am feeling righ now it would not even be that far off. Not sure if I am just having troubles adapting to the new routine of working again or if 5 hours is just too much for me (I used to do 4 hours before).
 
Just give it a go Sanni. Rest when your body needs it when you are not working. Don't do too much activities outside work while your body adapts to the new routine.

I win
 
I think that is one problem. I have had too much other activitys. I can't seem to cut back on them or they have been allready set before I knew I would be working. Should ease up after this week. + the extra day of next week and the week after will help too. Right now I have a bit of a head ache and feel like a fever in rising but the meter shows normal. So I think I am just tired. Anyways a nice walk in the drizzle might help too.. some fresh air.
 
wow still winning. I feel so much better after my walk. Now to bed. Good night everyone. Enjoy the rest of the day.
 
I sleep aged all the time Kirst! LOL. You wrote that, you are tired. How are you doing? Let me know when you get test results.:thumright:
 
Did you have dinner out?I had pasta salad again! :eek2:It was good again:lol2:
Had chinese for lunch with Sheree. Took my immodium!:lol2:
 
taco time again. :biggrin: I could have used some of that Imodium earlier today, but ok now.
 
Took it twice today. I have been getting tummyaches alot lately. Almost everyday. But they arent there all day long. Usually after I eat for awhile. I had that when I was first diagnosed. I had tummyaches everyday for 6 months.
 
imagine that, tummy aches on an IBD forum. :biggrin: stress doesn't help any either, does it?
 
doctors always give me stress. I've even had therapy for ptsd type symptoms from the docs treatment of me. now figure that one out. :O
 
I had that so bad when I lived with 1st husband everyday. I burned out my adrenals I'm sure. But, now I have learned how to let most things go and not let it get to me. Although i am overly sensitive most of the time. I am so used to chaos all my life that it just doesn't affect me like other people except things like death and taxes!LOL.
Your situation would however get to me too!:ymad:
 
Doctors don't generally realize how much their actions/ non actions/ statements affect their patients. when they get to " god status" they forget their human side often.
 
Doing okay Doug :) I will be happy when I get my results, I'm not a patient waiter. Hubs and I are going away for the weekend to a farm cottage in Tinui so I can recuperate and he can play golf. It's 1:30 now I've slept the most since procedure.

Glad you and sandy having a good time :)

Dexky, that made me smile :)

Hi y'all taking my middle of the night win back
