Thursday Roll Call
Good Morning Illinois,
Did anyone get any storms last night? We didn't even get a drop.
Crystal, it is starting to seem that you are getting comfortable at your new job. Hot dog farting?
Nancy, You had a major surgery. Plus the heat of this summer, plus the fact, if we like it or not, we are getting a small bit older. I can understand why you are tired after 6 hours of work.
Dawn, glad to see you are in a great mood. We had that empty nest feeling when our girls left home too. Ya just have to remember, it was the 2 of you once before, and you will reconnect as a couple.
Chris, how is work going?
Deb, you are always so busy.
Sandy, keep doing what you are doing. I finally had to go back to my pills after a couple of weeks. The crushed up ones were terrible. It got to the point where my throat would start to close up when I tryed to put them in my mouth.
going to try to work outside on the garden abit today. Yesterday was way to hot.
What is on your agenda today?
huggers,
LISA

Hello everyone
Today is Friday Eve!!! I woke up on the tired side today. I wanted to stay in bed.
I went to Sam's Club yesterday and the deals are great. The company I work for offers a deal through Sam's...so I got a membership. I bought a TV last night for the living room. The one that was in my living room will go into the Den. I don't have a TV in the bedroom. I don't like them in the bedroom. I sleep better without them and I find myself being lazier with a TV in the bedroom. I know this always sparks a big debate with some people. I prefer to only go to my bedroom to sleep and read.
I am also planning a really nice dinner for Amanda when my furniture comes. They come over every Sunday for dinner and I want to make something nice. It has to vegetarian. So I was thinking tortilla stew. Hmmmm....
Sunday is supposed to be a really nice day so I think I will start fixing my garden. We will see I might still be busy with the painting.
Oh and I have some sad news...they are laying off some people at my old job (did I not get out of there in time or what). What irks me is the company is turning a huge profit...somewhere around 800 million dollars a year. But see it's a publicly traded company (PDCO) and it needs to meet certain financial forecasts each quarter. Well I guess it didn't meet it's forecast last quarter. it's still a very profitable company that is growing...all that matters is that the company's shareholders are happy.
Well I better get going. See you guys later.

Good morning my IL peeps.
How is everyone? I am good. Last Thursday I passed psych eval part of pre op things to do for surgery. All I have left is 2 more support groups,another appt(sept 16th) with the surgeon(this one he wants to met my mom,since I am not actually married n she is my next of kin),dietician that day too. My endo is schedule for Sept 28th. For those of you that know I am anxiety probs. Read next paragraph to find out how I am working on it.
My pcp put me on sertraline a generic form of Zoloft cause it was the only one covered by medical card n doesn't cause weight gain. I have to take 50 mg break it in 1/2 n take 1/2 it for 1 wks then a whole pill for a wk n I go back again in 2 wks to see her again to see if I need up,down or leave dosage

Good Afternoon Everyone!
Another day done and closer to Friday!
If only I did not have to teach a class on Saturday! I love doing it but that means I cant sleep in. Sigh.
Today was cooler which was nice. I do better in cooler weather. I had PT today and it was a laonger and harder session. We are really working to get me back into shape. Bean bag muscles do nothing for stamina.
Tomorrow I take Claude in to the doctor. He has been sleeping too much lately and I am worried that he is not ok. He never sleeps this much. The last time he pulled this quiet act was when he had bone cancer and lost a leg. I just hope he happens to be tired for some reason.
Lisa, I dont think we got any rain last night either. It did pour earlier yesterday. Today would have been a good gardening day. Hope you enjoyed it! I have to admit I turn 60 next month. I refuse to think that this is old although my body keeps trying to tell me it is.
Crystal, I love Champaign's Sams club. I used to shope there all the time. They seem to have good deals. It sounds like you got out of your old company in time. I hope none of your friends are let go. That is so devastating to have happen to you.
Vickie, it sounds like things are really moving along for you. You will be having surgery before you know it!
Chris, I hope things go better at work and Ms busy body eventually changes her ways. I sure would not be holding my breath. I can relate to being tired.
Have a great evening!

Good evening all,
Tonight I am writing on here to keep myself from eating my emotions. About 2 yrs ago my lab was diagnosed with Cushings disease. This is a cancer of the pituitary gland. Well, the vet said she would have about 2yrs before the disease really takes over. Well, it is taking over now. A few days ago, we noticed she was biting at the air, through research, and the frequency, it is seizures. Her tumor has grown and is pressuring the brain.
Tomorrow my son and his friend will be taking her to vet as they get out of school before me. It is too early for me to take off, plus being the wimp that I am I no I can't do it.
What a way to start my weekend.
Take care
Debbie
