Topic: RE: WHATS HAPPENING FRIDAY
Hello Missouri,
What a beautiful day. I went out for lunch and went to Target. Got a cute pair of suede-looking moccasins that have a faux fleece lining for $16. Look as good to me as the $100 ones at Dillards and I'll be tired of them by the end of the season!!!
Target has such cute clothes. I could spend $1000 there with no trouble except I'd be in trouble!! I'm like you, Jan, I'm trying to pay off everything before I retire so I'm watching the budget but it's hard with Christmas approaching. I've decided to shop in my closet for purses and jewelry since I have more of both of these than I can ever wear out.
Doctor had an interesting suggestion for me regarding my urinary urgency. He suggested setting my Outlook on the computer to pop up every two hours to remind me to go to the bathroom. I haven't done it yet but I am going to try it.
Have a great weekend everyone,
Hugs,
Lana

Jeanie,
I agree with Jan about tapering off cigarettes. I think you just have to throw them away and never pick them up again. JMHO but I think it's the easiest in the long run.

Jan,
I think everyone is sleepier right now with the cool nights and warmer days. I just love sleeping cold!!

Nothing going on with us. Daisy dog is getting really big. Think she is definitely part greyhound. She's such a love.

It's Fall break here at school so no teachers or students just us office peons. It's good though, I've gotten lots caught up.

I had my doctors appointment on Tuesday and he said I'm fit as a fiddle. He was very pleased with me. My labs were wonderful - had b12 and calcium checked and need to cut back on B12 but it's not a problem. He thinks my left shoulder has a torn rotator cuff too but I don't want a referral to an orthopedic doctor because I'll never have that surgery done again. And the problem in my left thigh is a healing groin pull he thinks. I told John it sounds like he married a football player with a torn rotator cuff and a groin pull. LOL!!! He gave me a cortisone shot in the left shoulder because I told him I think it might be a bursitis problem because it seems to react to storm systems moving in. It does feel better. Also got my flu shot and pneumonia shot so I'm full of SHOT!!!!

This weekend I'm going to stop by the blood band and see if they want my donation since I had all those shots. Then we have to bathe the dogs - I'm not looking forward to that. Think we'll go over to this place I saw that was attached to a car wash on Kansas Expressway and it's a dog wash with a big deep tub but raised up off the floor so you don't have to get down on your knees. Should be interesting.

Hugs and loveys to all.

I hope there is more happening today than was yesterday lol ...lots of lurkers not any posters....even the lurkers dont seem to be as many....wonder why?
I have to work today so this is going to be short since i just got up lol lazy woman i guess.

Yesterday we dug all the sweet potatoes ....oh my gosh you should see some of these things....weighed one of them and it was 6 pounds. can you imagine? they are huge....one of them makes me and Joe a meal side dish for several days ...i dont have anywhere to store them was wondering if anyone had ever cooked them , mashed them and then put them in seal a meal bags ..will that work? i dont have enough jars to can them.....

after getting all the sweet potato vines up and gone we tilled the garden up for the winter. i decided it was probably too late to plant anything. I might go out and sow some turnip seeds ....i like a good mess of them once in awhile , dont know what i would do with the rest of them lol
i guess i could find someone to give them to lol 

well guess i better get off here and start getting things ready for work....love you all

Never got back on yesterday did I ? sorry about that was just so busy that i never even got back to the computer until late last night and by then i thought i would just wait till this morning well you can see that the morning is about gone , i dont know what is going on with me about sleeping late, i have never done that in my life. now i cant get up before 9:30 it seems ....weird. I think a lot of it is change of weather , anyway. i like the sleeping later in some respects and not in others...i miss my morning time alone.

I got another bill paid almost off with my pay check. feels good to be getting them out of my hair. dont have to dodge the phone calls lol ....only have one more to go and then will be getting all the little things paid off and be free and clear. for awhile anyway.

I called a lawyer and talked to them about my knee to see if they think i have a case. have an appointment one day next week . will see what they say. anyway dont want to cause the doctor to go bankrupt or anything just want it fixed and not cost me a penny and want remimburse for all i had to pay for the first time. so we will see what they say.

well not a lot of new stuff going on. we did talk to a tree guy this morning to have the two elms takin out of the front yard ...they both are spliting and want them gone before winter and possible more ice storms cause them to fall on our house ...wouldnt be good at all.
So he will be doing that before long...good friend of ours too and he doesnt charge much at all. not really for huge big trees like these ...

Jeanie sounds like you are trying with the cigs. i can tell you from experience tho for me i never could quit them by cutting down. i finally just lay them down and said that is it no more and let God take over....i know that isnt the way a lot of people do it but for me it was the only way...
Good luck on all your test for the over the road driver. hope you get your wish and dreams.

Susie, good luck on the doctor visit. Im sure he counts you as one of his sucesses.....

love and hugs to all

Topic: RE: WHATS HAPPENING TUESDAY

Today is a great day for me too. Just got my wireless router set up so now I don't have to connect the laptop at the house I can work where I want. My PC is still working, just has windows vista on it and having a few problems so decided to get the laptop now cause I will need it on the road.

A wee****il I do the stress test and maybe another week or at least a few days til all the results are back in. Hoping to hear from the sleep lab soon. Am getting nervous, almost as bad as before surgery, it's a big life change, and I really need to do something now.

Am doing ok with the cigarettes. Have only had 5 today. Keep them hidden and only have one if I get really bad, am trying to stay busy in the house, started crocheting a barbie bride dress for my oldest granddaughter's birthday, have to stay with it to get it done by the 28th. It keeps my hands busy.

Can't wait to hear about the interesting day Jan.

Well my bedroom is calling me, had a really late night with one of our customers, they called about every hour to check on one delivery, so didn't get much sleep. Am gonna try to make up for it now.

Susie~have a safe trip, let us know how your check-up goes.

HUGS everyone, have a good day tomorrow.
