Hey folks, welcome to the new whine/general topic thread. Feel free to use this thread to discuss anything that is on your mind. Caregiving- related stuff, life after a loved one's death, your own emotional wellbeing. Whatever..........anything on your mind.
Warming to 61° F, 70% chance of rain.
Are you back from your run?
This weather report is for Louisville, Kentucky, Saturday, May 6th.
"Warming to 61° F, 70% chance of rain. "
MsMadge and Sendhelp are conversing in code. It is a guessing game.
I got my run in this morning before the rain started, I really need to squeeze in more exercise because I fill my extra time with snacks!
Running in the rain is only good if it is Summer warm and you are under 12 years old.
Nah, Cwillie, you don't have to be under 12 years old, but these runners are only three years old.
Remember the song, "I like pina coladas, getting caught in the rain..."
Summer rain is best, you are right about that.
But drinking a virgin pina colada is only about 300 calories, and can be enjoyed at any age. Lol.
Nobody gets it? Except Cwillie is out of the running-no running in the rain!
Q. What is happening on Saturday, May 6th?
Anybody? Ali, Are you holding back? It's not the Cubs playing.
The first Saturday in May is a high holy holiday - the two most exciting minutes in sports
I got the horse right here and there's a guy who says if the weather's clear, can do
Can do, the guy says the horse can do
wish I could take mom to the track on Saturday but it's way too crowded
So if they don't scratch him, my horse is

My Mother would say to us three siblings, "You are all full of
pizz and vinegar" and that my brother was "made of
puppy dog tails." Lol.
But here I am, wide awake.
Did you all like it inside the drawer?
8:20 a.m. It's Friday!
I just started my diet yesterday, that is just plain cruel-did you make that up?
Bring it on, I can take a challenge! Besides, chocolate is allowed on my diet, just not so much. I take one square of a chocolate bar and put one in every hole of my seven-day pill minder.
One of my favorite books was: "Diets Don't Work".
And, today was the first day there were no major painful events!
So that is a relief for me. Went out to get the new supplements.
The M.D. who is a physiatrist was closed today. o well, Monday cannot come soon enough. Has anyone ever been to a physiatrist?
Gershun, Back in the drawer for you, and I will keep it open a bit. Sleep well!
You must be laughing yourself to sleep tonight.You have the best sense of humor!
Yeah, I've been. It was mandatory for anorexics if you wanted to be in the program. Can't say I'm a big fan..........but having said that I would never say to someone, don't try it. Whatever helps, Right?
I have a tendency to stretch my legs out sideways while I sleep :)
Goodnight dear friends.
Ambient noise? How about a trumpet race call?
Go out into the cold for some fresh air? Meh.
Go to the store? I did the whole town yesterday, but I guess I could do the rounds again....
Phone a friend? Hm, where ARE all my friends? Lots of calls and emails the first few days after the move, but now silence; back to the status quo.
Go to see mom? That's always a good way to kill and hour but I know she always sleeps all morning. (of course now she also seems to sleep all afternoon, if I had to live there I would too)
cw - time to develop a hobby - photography, join an online writing group, start a blog, take a course (there are some great freebies like Coursera), study to become a personal trainer, volunteer - the possibilities are endless and you have lots of talents.
Thinking this through, gerd and fibromyalgia were diagnosed by symptoms only, 20+ years ago. No upper g.i., and one 15 minute visit: dx. by pressure points.
CWillie, sorry you are bored. I guess that's one thing caregiving has going for it, you never have time for boredom. What did you enjoy doing once upon a time? Do you remember back that far? LOL
