TGIF!!! Good evening...:)

I have been erecting things today. Sheesh, and you boys thought you were the only ones capable of an erection. :yfrown:
 
Awww Robbie, would you like me to help you with your erection?

ONID = WTYN (Welcome To Your Nightmare) :)

Nah I am an expert - now stop being mucky Dusty. Guy Fawkes Night on Monday - I guess you will be making your annual appearance on top of the bonfires as the Guy?
 
I bet you are my five fingered friend! :ylol:

That is another quaint custom we don't celebrate here. But I don't mind being at the top of the bonfire, wouldn't be the first time I have been burn't at the stake. :devil:
 
I've paid my dues
Time after time
I've done my sentence
But committed no crime
And bad mistakes
I've made a few
I've had my share of sand kicked in my face
But I've come through

(I hope you are taking this in Robbie)

I am the champion my friends
And I'll keep on fighting till the end
I am the champion
I am the champion
No time for losers
'Cause I am the champion - of the world!

Just sayin' :ybiggrin:
 
For Dusty

Queen 'I'm Going Slightly Mad' (1991)

When the outside temperature rises
And the meaning is oh so clear
One thousand and one yellow daffodils
Begin to dance in front of you - oh dear
Are they trying to tell you something ?
You're missing that one final screw
You're simply not in the pink my dear
To be honest you haven't got a clue
I'm going slightly mad
I'm going slightly mad
It finally happened - happened
It finally happened - ooh woh
It finally happened - I'm slightly mad - oh dear !
Ha ha ha ha ha

I'm one card short of a full deck
I'm not quite the shilling
 
Well hush my puppies and prune my magnolia's Robbie, are you suggesting that I am a sandwich short of a picnic??? :yfaint:

Or are you actually admitting to all and sundry that you are in fact...slightly mad??? Mind you I would say it is a tad more than slightly old chap!

YUM!!!!!:thumright:Atta boy Robbie!!!!:ysmile:
 
Hello Robert!
I downloaded my pictures from last week since my hubs kept forgetting. Now I do have to wait to make an album that I can send. I always get into trouble with that!:biggrin:
 
Do you know when I log on at 7am ish I think I am safe from the US mob - but this morning was ambushed by Sandy and Angel - then Dusty weighed in - Trev you were not much help!

Now Cheryl is back I can be nicer to Marcia!
 
Ooohhh.. chocolate. Maybe my weekend wont be so bad. WIN!

My man is sick so we dont get to spend this weekend together. He needs to stay home and get better. So I gues I "get" to do an organizer weekend and clean some closets. Not fun at all. Chocolate helps. TY!
 
Sanni is being mean to me on another thread
Teresa is being mean on this one

Okay I will put the chocs in the post!
 
Robert747 said:
But you were rude to me........................ ......can't remember what about though .................... .Oh yes - it was about me being old

What is your favourite type of cake Sanni?
Click to expand...

Ah yeah.. dementia.. a sing of.. omg.. getting OLD!

My favorite cake.. I like pretty much all cake. Had some really nice raspberry cheeze cake at work yesterday.
 
Anyhow.. I am so upset that Robert took my chocolate away and worst of all gave it to someone else that I need to go out and chill my mind. In other words I need to take my little doggy boy out for a walk.

But since I have absolutely nothing to do tonight I will be back to claim my win again in a bit.

Hey Dusty, i think you are a highly intelligent, smart witty woman who has been to hell and back, and i actually like you, but go get a room or take some of your raunchier humor to the adults only thread, also under the humor section, will ya? Some times it is fun to press that "shock button" as Robert would call it, but there is a time and place for everything, okay hun? I know we all need something to take our minds offthese horrible IBDs, i still want ya around, just toned down a tad. Thanks!

Okay, I'm mean and ornery today, but my kid, my kid who doesn't have crohns, but lies, cheats, steals, and takes delight if it makes me cry, then once she has broken my heart and gets me crying hysterucslly, likes to see what else she can do to put a vice on, is coming home tomorrow, and we have to take her with us to a Utes game. My poor, beloved Utes. She wouldn't be Dusty, 'tis true, but I'm ornery and having a breakdown. I was fine for five minutes this morning until i realized my girl, who calls herself an angel (more like the Angel of death) is coming home. I'll leave you lot in peace for awhile, while i go to pieces.
Hugs to all, including Dusty.
(Dusty, i know how to take you now.)
 
Hi Sandy,

One of the things I have found the most difficult to navigate around on this forum, as a whole, is the cultural differences and that includes humour. Of course it also uniquely individual. Obviously being a truly world wide forum is what brings this about.

I will say that there are posts in this thread that I find equally offensive to what you have found mine to be but I must accept that they are the strongly held cultural beliefs of others and so move on.

Having said all that I will respect your wishes and 'tone things down'. You have but to ask, which you have. Unfortunately I can't guarantee that I won't fall off the wagon occasionally because it is who I am, just as I wouldn't ask, or expect, you to change who you are, but I will make a concerted effort.

……………

I see you have posted again whilst I have been responding.

I know you have had trouble working me out so perhaps I should have explained myself better to you.

Yes, I have been to hell and back in the last 7 years and my life will never be the same. I live in an almost constant state of fear that Crohn's will take away from my children all that they hold so dear, freedom and normality. I came within a whiskers breadth of losing my daughter to this disease, a disease that many people think does not have this capability.
I live with the reminder of it everyday as they take their medication, the food choices they have to make, the scars they carry, but I don't need to tell you that as you face your own demons everyday on so many fronts. :hug:

Aside from the cultural differences I have already mentioned another aspect of my life that may go some way to explaining who I am is my work. I am primarily a palliative care nurse. I deal with death and dying everyday and I personally believe it does shape who you become and how you behave in your down time. Your humour does become a release because as they say…if you didn't laugh you would cry... and unfortunately that humour can become quite irreverent, it is how you cope with what you are faced with everyday.

We all deal with the things we find the most difficult and heartbreaking in different ways. Some turn to religion and others, like myself, turn to banter and humour.

I can't even begin to imagine what you are going through with your foster daughter but I hope more than anything you are able to find the strength to do so, particularly when you are already faced with so many challenges in your life. :hug:



And now I win! :)
 
Hi acheallover
Sorry you are feeling poorly and hope the tide will soon turn.
Meanwhile
Hugs and best wishes
Trysha
 
Dusty, thanks for your reply and i usually do appreciate your wit and, well Dusty being Dusty. I know I'm ultra-sensitive at times, do appreciate the fact that you're sensitive to my ... well ... sensitivities. I know we all do have cultural differences too, which is part of what makes this forum fun. I will try to tone down my sensitivities also ... if i can :D

So you know, i don't dislike anyone here. I have more respect for you than you know. I also don't put myself above anyone. I just don't know how to take things:blush::D:D:D (including myself)

Thanks for the well wishes with my devil, and i know how you have ached for your angels. You do have to laugh or you would cry.
:heart:
 
Hey, Dusty, do you think everyone is afraid of both of us yet?
Me, because they can't say anything without hurting me, and you, because you say everything?
 
I hope so! Because that then means only you and I have to fight it out for the title! :lol:

Thanx Angel! I'm just sitting here and noone is on tonight. My hubs already went to sleep. I am concerned about my son and trying to figure out what to do or say.He is so discouraged because he can't see his daughter. The x won't let him since he got out. He hasn't done anything to her or anything. he hasn't seeen her since last DEC. He is so depressed and has me worried...
 
:heart: I will keep positive thoughts and prayers for him as I'm sure you will. Thats a tough situation to deal wth, especially when x is not wanting to b civil or cooperative. Stand by him. Loves ya
 
ok random question... Does anyone get super thirsty? Seems like no matter how much water I drink, I can't quench my thirst. Today alone I have gone through four 16oz water bottles. i m off the antibotics for now, but I wonder if it is the Iumran that is making me so thirsty.

Oh... and win!

I am from inderal for Essentail tremor. My Dad has it too and said he is always thirsty too. My lips get chapped really easy too!
 
Same here but i have been trying to do deductible reasoning, have yet to figure out why. Leaning towards combination of medications and disease. Only makes sense, b/c our bodies are deprived and depleted of so many essential vitamins and minerals. Thus, somewhat improper relay of neurons to brain stem of need for fluid replenishment and consumption. I do know that alcohol and carbonated beverages ( carbonation) makes this way worse as they are diuretics, depleting the body even more. - hugs-

Is that also why my thinking is not what it used to be? My memory etc...?
 
It does have a huge impact on that as well I'm finding. I had a relatively good retention and knowledge base, now I'm finding some things are more difficult to sort through and recall. Which is a scary thought in my field. I am depended on by thousands to have all the answers at my fingertips, yet since my tx has started, i find that some things are hazy and i begin to doubt myself....ugh so i double check b4 i respond/counsel my patients. :) - hugs-

Thanx Angel, I have noticed a huge difference and I forget simple things alot more too. Like how to spell a word. I have always been a great speller till now!

Makes sence. Seems like water is all I drink now. I will have a soda or iced tea once or twice a week, but it does not seem to bother me. Being from Texas I love my Dr. Pepper and iced tea. I don't think I'll ever be able to give those up :)

I only drink water and a cup of coffee in the am to wake up. An occasional cup of tea in the evening. Almond milk for calcium.
 
Bacon and egg for breakfast. A WINNER right there!

Hope you all are well today.

About drinking water (and I am sure you know tis allready) But too much is not good. It can flush all the important minerals etc from your body. You should try and drink something with a bit of salt/ sugar or both in it. This way it keeps your body better hydrated too.


So one qestion. Can the picture be seen that I posted on the page before? With me and Satin (the snake)? Since usually I get a reaction from people and now I seem to not have so just want to be sure I posted the picture the right way. Not that I am attention deprived or anything. :shifty-t: Though I probably am today since I "get" to be all alone (with my pets) all day long. :cry:
 
We did see your post and your pic. I loved the metaphor. Personally, i didn't say a lot because i was in the middle of a nervous breakdown over my devil child. I know, that isn't nice to call her that, but it just fits so well. Why is it that our children can cause such heartache? At least in our case, we can just give her back. :biggrin: maybe we will turn her in for a new model. Maybe we will just demand a refund. Who knows.
Our other lovely child, a male child, decided to be a snake in the grass too. We paid an extra $50 to get him a ticket for this Utes game we are going to tomorrow, but he got so out of control today he even threatened to bite his staff at his group home. Literally. Lost his privilege to go.
Bottom line, I'll adopt you, you're not alone. We've already adopted Kirsty (but we are going to make her cook.) Also, everyone is still invited to a party, Christmas Eve (although i know none of you will show up), at our house.
:heart:
 
I have to say Sandy. You have a lot of patience to handle special kids like that. It takes a lot from a person and you are giving them a lot no matter how ungrateful they may be.

For me watching parents with kids has made me realize I don't want any of my own. I just cant see I would have the energy (and patience) to handle all the trouble they bring.. even if in return they bring love too. I try and be apart of the lives of some of my frinds children and this jannuarry we will have the first baby in our family since my cousin is having a baby then. So get the love woth out the responsibility is the way I plan to go. :D
 
I win - Been busy today went to Kaikoura for a drive. Tomorrow back to work Hope you are all okay.

Hey, anybody want to come to the game with us tomorrow? We've got an extra ticket.

Can't make the game but on for the Christmas party at your house - did we sort out who is doing what? I am bringing the cigars and drinks.

Angel - Sanni is not getting her chocolate back! I think I have guessed Victoria's secret.

Sanni - Does the snake scare your dog? You know - when the snake gets that 'hungry' look in its eyes.

Marcia - You have been very quiet lately - it's great!

You are a smart lady, Sanni. I am a glutton for punishment. I'm coming to realize not all bring love in return. It can sometimes be a ploy for what they want next. Manipulative little so-and-sos.

What you do is a great act of courage and love in itself. The parents appreciate you more than you know (even if not special needs parents).
 
Kirsty, nice to see you. Robert, i decided you can bring your cigars, just keep in mind that i am asthmatic. Angel and Sanni, chocolate enough for everyone. JBug, I'll call tomorrow and get you talking. Sanni, my brother-in-law used to threaten to feed my guinea pigs to his boa constrictor. Poor little piggies. Dusty, you can say what you want, Ashley will scare it out of you anyway. Unless she is locked in her dungeon for the night. But she is "of age" (sort of). Maybe Oto, the boy child (28 years old) will bite you. Carol, no wonder you don't celebrate Christmas. GJ, can you bring your guitar? Trev, i want a customized motor home for Christmas. Robert, don't forget Teresa's laptop. Maybe one for Cheryl too, since the only time she seems to post is at work. Trysha...well, that's a difficult one. She seems to bring beauty and grace wherever she goes. Everyone else, just come ... party
Doug, we better build that second bathroom. A room full of crohnies, etc. and one bathroom! Oh me oh my! Everyone else, just come. Party.
 
You know Robert, I should just go to the stores and get some chocolate of my own. And I would share it with everyone . Just one small problem.. all the shops are closed today becouse of All Saint's Day. so :cry:

Woohoo! Party time! And I'm winning And with a truckload of Chocolate!

Mmmmmmm...chocolate.

Male child just called to say he was "never coming to our house again, so there, bye" then pretended to hang up. I just said "bye" and hung up. I better go get ready for the game. The saga continues. Don't worry all, the party is still on.

That's why usually people react to it. This is actually the second time I was holding her and a bit freaked out myself too.. does not show in this picture however. Im supposed to learn how to change her water so I can do that while my man is on holidays for a couple weeks.. now that REALLY does freak me out a bit. To be alone with her. IIk.
