Topic: RE: Anyone win big yet??
Hey that's cool and your sticking to your guns to! I was against the lottery to, but then I started getting excited about the scratch cards. I'm not against gambling, if you do it for fun and not because your broke and hope to win big. Anytime I have gone to tunica I only brought 20 in cash with me in one change purse and gave my sister (whom I go with) the rest of my money for food and such. Ive only been there 3 times in my life.

Topic: RE: High B12??
yeah, that iron can just you if you have problems with constipation. I Have been taking iron just for when im on my monthly cycle because I have been getting so drowsy and dizzy and very weak, and the heavyness just kills me and is so embarassing.... But, the constipation kills me everytime I take that iron no matter how much liquid I drink.... I just dont know what to do???? I hate to have to suffer through aheavy period, and the iron does help but then I suffer with constiaption.... Any help or ideas????
Topic: RE: High B12??
I'm with you on this one. My B-12 is 2800. I know, outrageously high. I now take my sublingual B-12 on Mon., Wed., and Fri. I would rather it be high than low. I take 2 Centrum (WalGreen's brand), B Complex and Calcium daily. That's it. Luckily my iron is fine so thankfully I don't have to take it. Thank God because the constipation I have is so bad, I don't know what I would do if I had to take iron. I used to take 9 stool softeners a day. Now I have switched to Metamucil (with sugar cause I don't dump on sugar- just fat) and eat a Kelloggs Fiber plus bar daily. That seems to be better.

Topic: RE: Anyone win big yet??
I am anti gambling and lottery.....I know I am no fun. I have no interest in either one. I guess cuz I am always living it to the penny with no room to spare.....
I have thought about it but never go any further......good luck to everyone who does play.

Topic: Anyone win big yet??
On the new lottery?? I scratched off a few that my roomie bought. I won a buck off a $1 card and I won $5 off of a $2 card. Also a couple losing cards, but if you read on the back, you can go online and enter the 12 and 13 digit numbers on the cards on their website and they will have drawings, so even if you don't win scratching you can still have a chance to win.
They say that someone here in my town won 20,000 dollars yesterday. I wish I knew who.

I told Tammy that I've been taking Temazapam (generic for Restoril) for a couple of years now since I had very bad (unspeakable) side effects from Ambien. The Temazapam is cheap....less than $10 for 30 days and I'm not a drugged out and groggy in the morning.
yeah....that Ambien is some seriously bad stuff!
