yoohoo,I'm back.It's 4pm here and it has taken me well over an hour to catch up with everything.Trouble is, I limit myself.I don't come online unless I've done everything I have to,otherwise nothing would get done.Same as the T.V. Don't put it on until I'm all done.Dogs restless for his early evening walk,so no doubt there'll be more catching up to do when I get back.try to keep it short ladies xx
 
You're too funny!!! I doubt this is over. How do you go from being Constipated and having to tear your butt up trying to push it out to D in laess than 2 hours??? Explain that to me someone!!!?:ywow:

Hey, that is a signature trait for those of us without an IBD diagnosis, just IBS. But some think IBS is an IBD waiting to show its ugly head. I would rather think it is just IBS waiting to be IBS.
 
I'm alright. I'm just being my normal worry wart self. what have you been up to? do you have your kids whipped into shape yet?
 
I'm definitely a worry wart. And the one who always causes trouble in my family at the same time. now figure that one out!?!
 
I'm going to go - gotta eat my pile of anti-anxiety pills for breakfast and figure out how to whip my kid into shape (ha ha ha he he - I don't call her my devil child for nothing! I used to enjoy her until ... Well, let's just say I used to enjoy her.)
 
Good luck with it Sandy....and still working on getting mine in shape too! Daughter stressing me out, her and her half baked ideas, let me tell ya! Hugs!!! Pass the anxiety meds, I've been out for far too long, lol!

It doesn't last girls.One day you and hubby will be watching what you like on T.V. eating what and when you like,going to bed without worrying where they are,have a tidy house and more cash........Then the grandchildren will arrive.But at least you don't have to keep them.:thumleft:
 
Hi my Crohnie Family!!! Hope all is well with you! Carol, L:heart:VE the new avatar! It made me smile!!! Teresa, HUGS! Praying it goes well!! That's absolutely OK to call me when you get home! Dee, I am so happy you are feeling semi-better! The poo is never as bad as the horrible pain! :poop: ( and btw,... "who can crap the most in one day award" hahahahaha ....I just knew you would fit in here!!!) Can somebody pass those anxiety meds my way??!! :lol2: I wonder how many of us take anxiety meds???...Sorry work sucks Cheryl! I am sending good vibes your way! Hey Sandy, I was mis-diagnosed IBS for YEARS! And I think sometimes it would be fun to be schizophrenic! :quack: hehehe.

When it rains it pours right??! Well, I finally got some good news! Went to the dentist, and even after 4 yrs of vomiting EVERY DAMN DAY, my enamel(sp?) still looks wonderful, the chip was too small to do anything to, and I still, have never had a cavity! WHOOOP! :emot-dance: I was soooo very relieved to hear all of that. He said he wouldn't touch my teeth, that they were too good to mess with. Guess bein OCD about them, and brushing 4 times a day pays off! :biggrin: So I got off easy with a cleaning and some nasty flouride that I have to keep on my teeth for 4-6 hrs...(I dont think Imma make it that long!!!!)

HUGS AND SMILE!!!!!!! :hug:
 
I really like the avatar Carol :ylol: its fab

Had a good night sleep and hubs did get home safe which is good.

We won a cricket test last night with sri lanka - so I am happy.

Today lots more work and I need to go to shops and try the post office again. Seriously next year I will get my calendars online and sent for free via amazon.

I forgot to find out if hubs is home for tea tonight - I know he has drinks after work. I think I will work to 1 pm and then go to shops and then take the afternoon off.

I appreciate the good vibes, Jen, thank you!! And fantastic news on the teeth! Kirsty, can I start drinking now? lol! Not sure I want to wait till after work today...
 
Cheryl - of course you can - start with an irish coffee...

Bug - cricket is a sports game - where men wear pads, helmets and try and hit a ball that is being bowled at them on the bounce. I used to play it at high school.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Cricket
A bowler bowling to a batsman. The paler strip is the cricket pitch. The two sets of three wooden stumps on the pitch are the wickets. The two white lines are the creases. Cricket is a bat-and-ball game played between two teams of 11 players on a field, at the centre of which is a rectangular 22-yard long pitch. One team bats, trying to score as many runs as possible while the other team bowls and fields, trying to dismiss the batsmen and thus limit the runs scored by the batting team. A run is scored by the striking batsman hitting the ball with his bat, running to the opposite end of the pitch and touching the crease there without being dismissed. The teams switch between batting and fielding at the end of an innings.
 
Bug - the 'test' part means that it is the long version of the game and tends to last 5 days. For some it is worse than watching paint dry - but for others it is like chess.
 
Jen - I am excited about it :thumleft: it's been a few months since I have been in paid work so it will be nice. It will be nice to meet some new people and see who are still there. My first project is easy for me as I have done it before so that is good.
 
Pavlova was named after a russian balet dancer. I klow. I am a cople days late from that convo. Been in the hospital for the past day. My bowel obstruction would not pass. Had a bretty bad 24 hours but feel better now. They are keeping me here till tomorrow to make sure i can eat solids. Had a ct, gastrokope to empty my stomach and endoskope to find obstruction seen on ct but it was not there. So no idea now what caused it. Stress?

So need a win!
 
The dancer must have been very light on their feet - :ylol: The dessert is so very light.

Sanni, sorry to hear you are in hospital, glad that you are getting treatment so you can be back at home real soon. Stay warm.
 
Awwwe, Sanni that's terrible! I am so sorry you are having to deal with this right now. Please keep us posted. You are in my thoughts and prayers! :heart:

Keep your spirits up!!! :hug:

Fluoride is rat poison!! Get it out, you don't need it, trust me, if your teeth are that healthy, you don't need flouride and it can affect you inside. Read about it Love!:thumbdown:

Just got home from the rheumatologist. She put me on neurontin for the arthritis. Anyone know if it works for this pain? Also she is sending me to a neurologist. She thinks I might have Parkinsons because my tremor happens at rest too and my balance goes sometimes. I just start falling over for no reason sometimes. Anyone else have that? i'm concerned. Two of my great uncles have it and one died of it a few months ago. I couild use some answers from you guys, thanx!!!! Loves!
 
hi guys, takes me 2 coffees just to catch up un last nites goss, maybe you guys should use shorthand. went out for dinner last nite, had to google the menu to know what to order, ended up having steak.

I've been on neurontin before for "spastic legs" (yes, I'm a spaz), and it did help some, but for me, not enough. Like any med, though, it is different for everybody. It gave me the weirdest dreams also.

I thought they tested you for Parkinson's? Essential tremor can definitely make your balance worse also. Big time. Ask Doug and me.

Neurontin is often used for those with nerve damage, like diabetics. My legs ache so much, that is the big reason I have massages now. I don't think I would be able to stand it without them.

Rheumatoid arthritis is so different than my osteoarthritis also. I feel for you.

With your not being able to take nsaids or Tylenol, neurontin just might be the answer. I hope it works for you!

Loves ya Angel Lady!
Sandy
 
Thankyou sweetiebee! I don't think I have parkinsons either. Do your hands and head shake at rest? I told her my friends do too. I thought you said that. I'm not going to worry over it. I have better things to worry about! I've dealt with so much, this would be nothing....
How are you feeling now? Still on the john alot today? I was ok after I left here. My oil light came on in my car on my way. So when I got there, I checked and it was over a quart low. I carry oill, so I put it in. It stopped acting weird then. Neurontin is making me feel weird and sleepy! But, not much pain relief. She said it has to build up in you. I already have weird dreams from lorazepam anyway. Mike can attest to that! I wake him all the time talking or screaming. Well, hope you ate feeling better my friend! Loves to you!!!:hug:I have to go make meatballs!!!:ylol::luigi:For the hubs!!!
 
Hey, I did it! I changed my avatar finally!!! It was taken off my phone Sandy, the pic I sent you and Jbug!!! My hair was pulled back so it looks like I have short hair! Well this is me now everyone!!!:eek:The Horror!!!:hallo3:
 
My Hubs hates Glee, he calls it Gays!!!
He calls Grey's anatomy, you guessed it, Gays anatomy!!!! He's bad!!!:eek:
 
Mama T - love your new avatar! Hope the meds work out for you.

So far I have got a whole lot of paperwork done - but I am feeling tired so I may go a for morning nap and try for a busy afternoon. I got my bloods done. Need to figure out what to wear for work on Monday - so exciting.

We are starting with a mihi whakatau - which is an informalish Maori welcome followed by morning tea. I will take in some baking. My speech in Maori is prepared and I have been practicing it this morning.

I also treated myself to eggs benny as my treat for myself getting the job.

Omg, eggs benny are my fave! Loooooooove them. We cruise alot and I eat them every morning while cruising :)
 
Thanx Kirsty!
Sounds like you've got everything figured out and I know Monday will be so fun and excitng for you. Enjoy it, because that one day could change your life forever!!!:thumleft:

Oh, Angel Lady! I forgot how sleepy I got when I first started Neurontin! a lot of people don't really let it work because at first the side effects drive you crazy.
 
hi guys, takes me 2 coffees just to catch up un last nites goss, maybe you guys should use shorthand. went out for dinner last nite, had to google the menu to know what to order, ended up having steak.

I took shorthand in high school. but can you read it?
 
Yes, American English has a lot of strange idioms, etc. I know that and I am from here. I'm doing okay for an infection. when you talked about fiberglass yesterday, I think it was, it reminded me of when I was a kid and my dad built a fiberglass canoe. we had that canoe for years. I paddled across the Mississippi River in it. (at a very small spot.)
 
That explains a lot :lol:! I also remember how long it took. a lot of work. It sounds like you are very capable of doing a lot of things. Oh, to be so talented! Have you seen Bug's artwork? I can play an instrument though, the radio. (ha ha!)

yes Bug is very talented, im hopeless at arty stuff.
 
hi Teresa, time for you to get your own laptop. maybe santa will get you one, if you havent been naughty.

I really want one, but to get wifi, it costs a hundred bucks just to install and we are just buying a car too, so can't affordm it now, but If anyone is feeling generous, u can send me one! Oh and for the record, i've been mostly good!:biggrin:

how do you consct to the net now? why do you need to install wifi
 
we can connect 2 or more computers thru wireless with just one connected to the net. not sure what happens over there.

Me either. It is all new to me. Just got a computer two yrs. ago! But, I know everywhere you take it must have wifi over here for it to work.:eek:
 
I just missed a whole conversation when my phone's charge and charger died at the same time ... back up everyone ...
 
Sandy, why do we have to have wifi to use a laptop when we already have internet on our cable system??? Do u know???

Just connect to your computer's address. the help line for your computer can help you if you can't figure out out. My phone is using cellular service, so different, but my old (dead) laptop didn't need wifi.
 
Actually, our computer internet is dead and has been for awhile. need to get it fixed some day, but have been using cellular service, so no big deal.

Cable company told us you have to pay $100.00 to install and $6.00 a month for wifi!!!
 
My Hubs called them, so he is the one who should be embarrassed! Scammers is what they are!
Jbug can't come on tonight because she has guests in every room and hubs goes to bed at 10 and if she opens her phone the lite wakes him up. I can see her laying there in bed bored to death. I'd find someway to do it! Go in the corner under a blanket!!:D
 
call computer company help, not internet service help

I will tell Mr. hubs tmoro. Glenn called me and asked me to come over my parents with him tmoro so they can meet Barb! He is going to sharpen my Dad's lawn mower blade and didn't want to leave Barb alone with MOM!:D

I think bug should get one of those sleeping masks for his xmas stocking.

That makes it cheaper to use for cell phones, tablets that are charged thru cellular service that don't have unlimited data service plans.
 
Hey, that is a signature trait for those of us without an IBD diagnosis, just IBS. But some think IBS is an IBD waiting to show its ugly head. I would rather think it is just IBS waiting to be IBS.

But in my experience, an IBS diagnosis is also a call for a second opinion.:stinks:
 
Wifi should come from your router which is what your computer is using.

if you dont use a wifi router, you can use wireless between computors. its a bit harder to set up, but its cheep. we use a wireless T stick (like a cell ph)on one laptop to get net and then wireless to another.
 
I wonder if Robert will know who I am tonight with the new avatar? You think?:D By the way everyone, I took that lighthouse picture in my avatar. It was in Hava De Grace Maryland this summer. I loved it!
 
Why does my message with my meds and everything come on only once in awhile???

It only appears once per page, so if you talk too much mother Teresa, then it wouldn't take up the whole page. Love the pic, all you ladies are soooooooo gorgeous! Muah - hugs-
 
I take off my distance glasses, my reading glasses, and put it about two inches from my face :rof: --- literally

LOL! Picturing it! I wish I could send Mike's snore so u could hear it. Sounds like a bear in the woods growling ~ hence Robert!!!:biggrin: :heart::heart::heart:
