Monica, I try everything tothe point of about screaming. It's an itchy, creepy crawly feeling; not like leg cramps.  Last night I had the heating bad on high hopng that would prevent having to take a hot bath or try to get to the hot tub on snow covered with ice in the back yard. Finally got in the tub. About 20 minutes helps. Somehow the water and heat seem to relieve the feeling. Unfortunately then I'm done for the night. I fall asleep for about an hour or two on the couch or in the recliner. Just when I would like to relax and read or watch a show or two. Thanks tho!

Hello Janet and OFF family to post later! It's Hump Day...I'm on the downside of the week!

Well woke up to a little bit of snow but lots of blac**** Took me 1 hour and 15 minutes to get to work...usually takes me 35 minutes, got off 131 at Martin and took the back roads in. So many cars/trucks off the road this morning. I was really tense by the time I got to work, now I need to let my muscles relax! Whew!!

I have choir practice tonight along with another practice as hubby and I are singing a duet in the Community Concert this year. It should be fun. Take care everyone and it's back to work for me!
Hugs- Debbie

Much cooler here this morning, like 20 degrees cooler. Had to get some warmer clothes ready for the next few days.
Husband better,but still hurting. I continue to OCD as we have many errands to run today. Read the "Fear" post, too close for comfort.
Asking continued prayers, sober 28 days, not sleeping well, oh well.
Hope everyone has a good day.

Good morning, Janet, and everyone!
I'm taking a break from a project that is due next week to peek in for a visit.  It's raining hard and very windy and I'm so not looking forward to going to my class in less than an hour!  It's been a difficult week for my DH.  His hip is acting up and he's limping around with a cane, unable to drive anywhere.  I've been doing all the running around.  Unfortunately, there's nothing the doctors can do for him other than a fluroscopic injection which he's getting later this month.  :P  My mother moved into an independent living apartment and we're supposed to bring the stuff she stored at our house this weekend.  I wonder if we'll be able to manage it?  Oh well.  Have a good hump day all!  Cassie

HI Janet and my OFF family:

Up too early this morning ... have an appointment at the pain doc (just an office visit). It's just 38 degrees here ... brrr ... for Louisiana, that's cold. People in the office weren't wearing coats and yet still going out for their smoke breaks. Stupid!

I was just sitting down to have my protein bar for breakfast when Alvin, the maintenance guy, knocked on the door to tell me they were turning off the water to fix a plumbing problem in the building. So I had to quickly take my shower first, then have breakfast. I might have to brush my teeth with the water in the fridge.

Not much else happening. Bright, sunny day, just chilly. Supposed to still get up to 57 degrees. Just chilly at night. Had to turn on the heat when I got up.

Well, have a good day.

Morning Janet and OFF family!! Its a chilly morning here also 30* with a dusting of snow on the ground and flurries happening yet. Calling for 1-3 inches later today. Glad I am off work today! Need to get groceries though. Still have to find those packed away gifts and also if I want to make my cookies the recipe is also packed away. GRRRR I have my work cut out for me I guess.

Looks like Rick's daughter is getting an apartment down the road from us this weekend. Nice. Happy for her that she will finally be out from her mother. Maybe she will finally "grow up" and learn the real world! Still not finishing the afghan for her for her birthday and Christmas gift. I refuse to fini**** until she apologizes to me. Rick said it will never happen. Well neither will the afghan be finished then. Like I said long story on his family ******g me off/hurting me and Rick for the last time! Just tired of it all.

Well better get going and start digging through boxes again and then off to the stores for food...and NO chicken or turkey for atleast a week or two!!! LOL Starting to cluck here....LOL

Have a good day and know I am thinking of you all!!!

HUGS

I'm on my way to Barbara's memorial service. I'm taking lots of tissues. I can't control my tears at these services. The old hymns and the family's grief just does me in. No work today...

Hello everyone. I havent posted on this daily thread in months, but here I am. I am back on track trying to lose the pounds I have gained, and figured I would benefit from the support here.
Feels like I have come home,,,

Its 27 degrees here in Indiana, snowing,,the first one of the year. Just flurries now but its still cold. Im freezing!! Got the heat set on 74 too!

I have that creepy crawly feeling in my legs and arms both,,and the only thing that seems to help me is magnesium. I read somewhere a long time ago that it can be a symptom of not enough magnesium,,so I take one when I go to bed. If I forget,,I wake up miserable. So, I can totally relate. A friend of mine is on the meds for RLS,,and her doc told her you can build up a tolerance for em,,and have to increase your dose. If you ever go off,,it all comes back with a vengeance. So far, I havent been brave enough to start taking them. As long as the magnesium works for me..Ill take it.

Made a big pot of Weigh****chers pointless vegetable soup. No, Im not a WW member,,but have had this recipe for years. Its filling and good. Just fat free beef broth, seasonings and vegetables. Makes the house smell awesome too. My whole family likes it.

I had some great news in the past year. My son that has been missing for ten years had a daughter,,she was born in 1983 when he was 18. I had never seen her,,and she had never seen her dad. Well, through Myspace she found us,,and called me. She came and spent Thanksgiving weekend with us and we had a ball. It was like looking in the mirror forty years ago,,she looks so much like I did. She has two precious daughters too.She also told me that she has a sister and abrother by two different moms,,I was in shock. My family is growing by leaps and bounds. 33 grandkids so far and still counting. 4 great grandkids too. Life is good!

So good to see you all still posting here. Ill be back,,miss your smiling faces and the inspiration and support you all always give so freely.

Be Blessed
Betsy
