Hi everyone...I hope you all are well.

About a month ago I hurt my shoulder bad. Had to skip my workouts which I really need. Then it gets better and I get sick...flu / cold like thing. Then better. Got to the gym a few days. Then I get a weird virus or maybe just a reaction to food and puke my guts out for several hours. Then better. Go to the gym one day. Get sick again...flu / cold thing. Very sick...sore throat, fatigue, cough, and feels like there is a slug working it's way through my brain...like I have this horrible itch inside my skull...it's driving me insane.

Anyway...point is...I C A N T G E T E F F I N B E T T E R ! I J U S T W A N N A W O R K O U T !

Oh...well. Again, hope you all are well.

Fandy · 02-09-2012, 03:14 AM

Ghostly, sometimes it's hard to keep healthy this time of year. i just heard that 2 colleges in my area are spreading Noro-virus....sheesh.

everybody wash your hands!

I want key lime pie....apple pie with crumb topping and to spread butter on my english muffin....sigh, it's a neverending battle and whine worthy any day of the week.

its gonna snow this weekend.

For your viewing enjoyment this morning, ladies and gentlewhiners, I present "Ozzie at Rest". Fandy has obviously been taking very good care of him.

Gotta say, I LOVE the expression on his face. What a cutie!!

***least*** · 02-09-2012, 04:50 AM

ozzy is a handsome fella!

Fandy · 02-09-2012, 05:04 AM

Thank you Ann! little Ozwald snagged a giant piece of Romaine lettuce with the remnants of chicken salad on it....i just wrestled it from him under the bed.

those are last years flannel sheets, getting a bit faded, i'll sell them at the next tag sale.

Zippy, please send the black beret for him so he can wear it with the red satin bow tie collar.

Fandy · 02-09-2012, 07:39 AM

i wish I had the picture of him last month while he was straddling the ham we were having for dinner....maybe for Easter?

Lenina I looked up the dream on Swoon.com. Dreaming about a large dog signifies Protection from someone higher than me and fertilizer is a good omen too....at least it is a pleasant thought, not adding to my stress level.

***cmc*** · 02-09-2012, 07:58 AM

fands...Ozzie's such a cutie!

And I love the comforter he's resting on too!

I want one! It matches my carpet which is actually a pale gold put I like to describe it as the same color as a perfect cuppa cafe con leche- extra heavy on the leche.

ghostly....did you ever consider that you're getting sick from the gym? It seems like you get sick whenever you go there. Take some disinfectant wipes with you next time and clean off everything you come in contact with-mama cmc knows about this stuff. Sorry you've been so sick.

my whine de jour is:

I'm meeting _another_ new doc today. I hope I can get some help from this one to get my hormones leveled off. I've already had one really crappy day in that dept. early this week. Sorry guys for the TMI.

I still have to do more research about the upcoming foot surgeries- I want to get a doc who understands the various procedures to fix me up; and make sure I get the right type of care.

There are just too many options now regarding how to do this and all but one of them are irreversible once done. I haven't found anybody around here yet that can/will do that one -it's new procedure and imho and I'm not going to be somebody's guinea pig.

Queenie...I love your Valentine avi.

Fandy · 02-09-2012, 09:27 AM

CMC, it's just a set of flannel sheets from Sams Club, last year's print du jour.

underoath · 02-09-2012, 12:15 PM

Wow, I am reading articles on the NY Times website for my English class, and let's just say I have reminded myself why I don't watch the news. The bias and ignorance infuriates me... especially when people start talking about politics and religion. Can't people become a little more educated before they start mouthing their opinions? I would like to read articles without getting an obvious sense of left (or right) -wing bias. I think it is impossible to write something without leaving some hint of personal opinion/perspective, and that is fine. It gets absurd when someone writes about something in a well-known newspaper and clearly voices their opinion about something they demonstrate to be completely ignorant about.

Right now I am stating my opinion that I think the media is a load of b.s., but I believe I have a viable reason for that conclusion.

Don't get me started on statistics. People throw numbers around like they mean something, while presenting them in a way meant to deceive, in order to support their position.

It's a shame I am supposed to be writing a summary, I would love to write about a 10 page analytical/argumentative essay about why the media isn't worth a damn.

LovesToTravel · 02-09-2012, 01:30 PM

My phone takes one of those little micro cards that goes into a larger sd card then just put in your computer...of course...after you have "moved" the pictures to the card. Tried doing that yesterday to take a pic (camera was with Mr LTT) so the guy from Amazon will see that the book I got was not the one I ordered! He isn't answering me any longer. Had to order another book from someone else and will have to work this out...why is it always something!

Oh...and I weighed myself this morning..have gained 5 pounds since Mr LTT has been gone...could it be the icecream and macaroni salad and cookies and crap I have been eating? grrrr

Carry on....

karilynn27 · 02-09-2012, 01:53 PM

Go get em underoath, I would love to read any paper you wrote. At least we have many outlets to educate ourselves on an issue. Trying to teach our children the same. My poor grandma is 90 and if she sees something on the tv she believes it must be.
LTT.... Wouldn't it be nice of ice cream had no calories

Reminds me of a song my husband sings with my youngest....if all of the rain drops were lemon drops and gum drops oh what a rain it would be.

***least*** · 02-09-2012, 02:50 PM

site seems a bit slow and cranky today... or is it just me?

moving into the home stretch now, with miss daisy's move. furniture will be moved in sat, along with boxes of her stuff. we'll set it up sun and move her in on monday. cats will be the last thing to bring. probably sun eve. will have her walker and shower chair there waiting for her and the cable tv will be installed tues.

i think i'll stay, maybe bro too, for supper there monday night. maybe introduce her to some folks.

it will feel strange knowing she's living there and not in her old cat-pee-smelling house, but i'll know she's safe and looked out for. i'll know she's eating good food and not just junk. i once found her eating pnut butter right out of the jar! sheesh!

i hope she gets out and about and dosn't just sit in her apt all day watching tv. at least she'll be with her cats.

***Hevyn*** · 02-09-2012, 04:27 PM

Ann - For a minute I thought you'd skipped V-Day & gone right to Easter.

Underoath - I know just what you mean. Sometimes I have to tune it all out & think my own thoughts.

Little Oz is plotting the takeover of the household,

don't let him fool you with the adorable kitty routine. Fands he is precious - I want him.

CMC inspired me and since the bunny slippers in my sig can never be removed, it was only right to find a bunny Valentine. She pulls this off much better than I do but the bunny slippers are sacred.

Least, I am so glad Miss Daisy is almost in her new place. Letting her keep the cats just touched my heart.
