Sunday WLS Express!

Liz,

Hope you get to feeling better. I think you need a hot toddy and go to bed and sweat it out.

Your loved!

Sounds good To Me !!!

Good Morning OH Family!

I did not sleep well last night and am up earlier than I wanted to be. Sigh......I've entered the wonderful menapause stage and had night sweats allllll night long. Had a wonderful day yesterday with the gang at Winstar. I walked away with $500 profit and was able to play a loooooong time. Had a nice dinner with Steph and Clay. The only thing about the casino it's hard to visit and stay together cause everyone kinda has to do their own thing. Nothing planned today, laundry and getting caught up on the house stuff and just stay home. Prayers that Liz and Tom get better. Prayers for our Danni as she adjust to her sweetie being gone. Well time for another cup of coffee. Hope everyone has a wonderful day.

Your loved!

Good morning Train Riders!!  It's going to be a beautiful day today.  I had a good day yesterday, though I did learn (again) that I must drink my ginger tea every day or I will suffer big time.  I didn't have any on Friday and yesterday I woke up miserable, joints aching, hands swollen and generally feeling like poop.  Drank some tea and within a couple hours started feeling better.  Luckily I found some ginger tea bags at the store so making it will be less of a hassle now.

Got my laundry done, some straightening up done, a little grocery shopping and hung out with Danni and the kids in the pool then watched Independence Day.  Very nice day!  Today we're going to church, then to Walmart for the rest of the shopping, then we have our second to last FPU class.  This one is about real estate and mortgages, so I'm very interested to see what Dave says.

Eating my omlette now and then will pack up my vits and take them with.  Forgot to take them with my shake this am, so I'll have to do them a little later today.

So Deb,

Tell me about Ginger Tea and it's medicinal values.  If you've posted it before I missed it.  I'm wondering if it might be useful for DH.  Thanks in advance.

I'm pretty sure I've got RA so my hands swell in the morning, and my joints ache all over.  Since I'm trying to be a good RNY patient I'm avoiding NSAIDS to help with the inflammation.  I did some research and ginger is a traditional natural anti-inflammatory, so what I've been doing is having a cup of fresh ginger tea every morning and night.  I grated the ginger into a french press, poured boiling water over it and let it steep for 15-20 min.

Whenever I do that my hands don't swell in the morning, and the pain in my joints is much less.  It doesn't go away entirely, but it's definitely improved.  It's a bit of a pain to grate the ginger, so I'm trying organic ginger tea bags to see if I get the same results.  We'll see tomorrow morning for sure.

Good morning all!! Quick post before I slither in between the sheets. My pt from last night took his last breath while I was giving report to my relief nurse. He was sooooooooo ready, but guess he wanted me to make my $$$ first!! He was joining to join his wife of 67 years, who went to Heaven in January. Can you imagine being married to one person for 67 years?????????? When he died his children were around his bed, singing and praying...really sweet....sigh...I can go to bed happy...and really tired....Don't know--or care--if have another case tonight yet--will check when my alarm goes off at 5pm...cuz REGARDLESS, I GOTTA make myself get some sleep today. I'd like to go to church, but I'd hate to outsnore those other back row Baptists!!! I need to get some more time in, cuz I'm already taking off Wed for support group at TAWNYA's house (REALLY looking forward to it!!!!)

Hope everyone has an absolutely AWESOME day. If anyone sees KATHY BENDER, please give her a BIG (((HUG))) for me

TERRY ANN-please put your toes in OUR beach for me-tell it I'll be there ASAP

I LOVE Y'ALL AND THERE'S NOTHING YOU CAN DO ABOUT IT!!!!

Good morning train riders...I've been awake and on here and FB for over an hour just forgot to post.  Had a great time yesterday at the casino.  Lynnette brought me a present from the devil~chick-o-sticks~and I had forgotten how good they are.  Need to ration them or hide the scale, one or the other. 

Nothing much planned today.  Clay is mowing the lawn then plans to cook me breakfast.  He likes to do that on Sundays.  We have 4 dogs to bathe today and this afternoon I have to return some scrubs to the uniform shop.  Other than that, I'll probably just be poolside if anyone wants to take a dip, come on.

Taking a break for the caboose.  It's easier to get on a real car from home and at a decent time of the day!

Had a great weekend once I got home Friday night.  King and I got some stuff done, spent most of the wknd together.  Supposed to have gone to a "King Family" birthday party - turns out it was a skating party for a bunch of 6 yr olds.  So I ended up hanging with him at the racecar shop, then going with a bunch of friends over to Kennedale to spectate last night.  It was good to see some people I hadn't seen in awhile.

His majesty is still snoozing and I'm going to let sleeping dogs lie.  Going to go tan, pick up scripts at Walgreens and grab us some lunch before I head back home.  Then just kill time until the typical 2pm trip to DFW. 

Headed back to PA and every Sunday I have to tell myself there are only "X" more weeks of this hell project and I CAN DO IT!!

Have tried to keep up with things during the week, but they have such tight security on the internet access sometimes I can't quite get to the board, then in the evenings it's like I've been working on the stupid computer all day and don't have the energy!  Need to get RIM to create a TMB App for Blackberry! LOL

Have a great week everyone!

jodie you can do OH from your bb it is just time consuming LOL and I always cheat and take the link from where someone has replyed to me
