Totally Tuesday

Good Morning Jeannie, and OFF Family,

Jeannie, I just set my alarm for 1:00 p.m. Eastern time, to join you for that collective time to breathe.  I had been encouraged to do breathing exercises for years by a therapist, and when I do them, I do better with everything.  Breathing exercises get more oxygen to every part of our bodies, especially when we do deep breathing.  More oxygen means better health.

I am going to work on my backyard today.  I have a mask to try to use.  Hope my glasses don't fog up.

I also have some organizing to do.  If there's time, I'd like to start cutting out the dress I want to make Izzy.

Must scoot.

Love,

Trish

Hi Trish - just so you know, 2pm central is 3pm eastern.  Join whenever you can but I just wanted you to know! Xo

Thanks Christine.  I normally know that, but this morning my brain is not working.  I'm changing my alarm now.  Duh!!!  

Hello Trish....I am glad you are trying to wear a mask outside. Hopefully you can adjust it so it will work for you!!  Enjoy working in the backyard! I miss having a lawn of my own.

You are working on a dress for IZZY. Is that the one you were making for yourself that didn't measure out right? I do love that picture of the two of you that you emailed me. You look wonderful and Izzy is so adorable!! Thank you again!!!! 

Have a good day...lots of love and many hugs to you...connie d

Hi Ladies,

Im at the laundrymat. My excitement for the week and Im taking my friend to the grocery store tomorrow. It cool off today but not too bad. I had fun at my brother's house over the weekend but I ate too much dessert so I gained a few pounds this week. My diet is back on track.

Prayers for everyone and have a good day.

Hugs,

Yvonne

Hello Yvonne....it is so nice that you take your friend grocery shopping. I know how nice it is to have some one to help. God Bless you! 

It sounds like you had fun at your brothers this last weekend. We all misbehave with eating now and then...you are back on track now and that is what is important!!

Have a great day....love and hugs to you....connie d 

Hello...home from surgery little while ago....dr could not do the loop procedure after all. Why? Because when he got in there he said the lining was way too thin and if he cut it I would have bled out/ruptured...sooooooooo he did a biopsy again and will contact another dr at Riverside hospital in Columbus...and tell him what has been done/found and see if he wants to do a laser surgery on me or nothing. I guess it depends on what the biopsy shows? SIGHS.......I go see the dr on June 2nd. Right now I am sore as hell down there and also have a sore throat. Little groggy also but not bad. Just fed up with all this ****!!!!!!! We want to take a vacation and now more of this to deal with!!!!!! GRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

Mom called and said she is having a cath done through her leg Friday morning at 10 am to see if the dr finds anything this way into her aorta why she keeps passing out. Everything else comes out fine. Does she want me to come home for this? NO. Wants me home for her birthday June 6th. Fine. See if I can arrange that.

Ok just wanted to let you all know what is happening...need to go lay down and rest like I was told.

Thoughts and Prayers for ALL that need them!!!!!!!!!

HUGSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

Judy:  Sorry it didn't go as planned and hurting in the whoohoo...fingers frossed you will get good news at end of all this, you so deserve it as this has been going on too long to be anywhere near normal.

Am nursing a mega fibro flare with IBS, not doing anything much these days but can so commiserate with anyone in pain, including Vickie falling.  

Connie: order bubble wrap for everyone...we need to protect ourselves from pain ,  or to pop when needing to work out frustrations...

Hugs to everyone

Hello Jennifer...I will work on getting that bubble wrap!!! I think we need a lot of it!!! You are right...dual purposes...safety and popping away our frustrations...what a great idea!!!!

I know what you mean about this darn Fibro...the last 5 days I was mostly in bed and so miserable I was crying. I am sure you are feeling the same way. I am grateful my IBS hasn't been too bad. I am sending prayers of healing your way!! Take good care of yourself. I pray this passes soon so you can feel better!! 

I think of you so often...sending love and gentle hugs...connie d

Hello Judy....I hope you managed to get some rest this afternoon. I feel bad that you are feeling so sore and in pain. 

I am sorry that you couldn't get anything done with the surgery. It is crazy that you have to wait even longer. I do hope you see another doctor. I don't have a lot of confidence with this doctor. He has drug this out and you have been miserable for too long. I would be feed up too!!!! 

I pray all goes well for your mom with her surgical procedure. I will be keeping her in my prayers too!! I hope you can make it home for your mom's birthday!!

Prayers...love...hugs to you...connie d
