Happy Sunday, y'all

Carolyn, as far as getting on the computer, the first day after surgery, you're going to be fairly groggy. I sure wasn't in the mood to do anything but stare at the TV and sleep after my knee surgeries. But maybe staring at the iPad would be OK ... something mindless to do. I brought magazines and books and hardly read anything. ... couldn't concentrate on anything. Most hospitals do have a phone and people can call you. I only brought my cell phone with so I could call my ride (but I have a very low-tech cell phone). And back then, I didn't have a laptop. Still, I'd worry about leaving all the expensive electronics in the hospital. I don't trust anyone.

Carolyn, Sending positive thoughts and nothing but good vibes your way! Soon you'll be on the healing end. With your positive attitude I'm sure you'll come through in fine style.

Good Luck Grammy lew.  My friend told me that the hip surgery is easier than the knee.  I hope it is. Good Luck and God Bless. Quick recovery.   Doris QC.  

Good Morning Eileen and all,

Going to see The King's Speech at 10am. It's the $5 show.

Cold here today, but sunny too.

Not much going on.

Making very bad food choices and can't seem to get a grip.

Enjoy your day!
Cheryl

Good morning Eileen and everyone.....

Struggling this morning...lots going on...as usual.

My oldest brother died last night. I haven't spoken to him in many years. He was the one that sexually molested me most all of my childhood starting at about 3 years old or younger. I can not feel grief for him. I pray for his family. My psychiatrist and therapist agree I should not go to his funeral for many, many reasons. Most all of my family knows why I won't be there The ones that don't understand me not being there don't know the extent and all the cir****tances. I have all I can handle right now.

I spoke with my grandson Nic last night. He is very angry with dealing with this cancer and needing to continue with all the torture as he puts it. He is also dealing with his parents divorce . He is so looking forward to me living there. For his sake I wish I could get there sooner. It is all such a big mess!!
There are things he tells me that he won't his parents and he promised me it is to stay between us. Leaves me in a tough spot. Nothing like drugs or drinking or anything bad like that.
Two more friends of his with his cancer have died recently in their early twenties...that seems to be the be the age. I would be scared and afraid too!! I am afraid and scared for Nic!!! He has so many dreams and so much to accomplish.

I have ranted enough. Thanks for listening my wonderful OFF friends.

Hope you enjoy this day. Prayers for many...special for Grammylew, Bev, Margo and more.

Love and hugs to all....connie d

Oh Connie, you have so much going on in your life right now, and I know that it must be very difficult for you. 
I am sorry that your brother died, but I understand your not going to the funeral. 
You have a lot on your plate, and I wish that I could help to alleviate your pain in some way. 
I am sending some prayers and good thoughts your way for peace and health for you and Nic and here's a big cyber hug from me to you. 
Margaret

Thank you Margaret.....good thoughts, hugs, and prayers are what my family and I need right now.

Sometimes emotional pain is worse then the physical pain.
