An allergy to nickle only means that nothing but pure gold or platinum should touch your skin. Tell your husbands it's medically mandatory.

Oh, and I suppose that only paper money can enter your pockets as well?

What's that? Do they make paper debit cards now or are you talking cheques?

I make my own money, honey, and would likely wonder what a man's motive might be if he gave me jewelry. My college ring, my white gold cross and some earrings are normal for me. I'm pretty low maintenance.

Listening to LilLamb and Porter talk about walking and biking to loose weight really makes me sad. I'm happy for you guys, don't get me wrong, but it really shows me where I'm at with the fibromyalgia.

Today I went back to work for the first time in 6wks. I could only make it for 3 hours, and I had to leave. I managed to go to the grocery store, and then pick up my taxes. At that point, I went home, and collapsed into a chair.

When hubby got home, he asked me to go with him to Menards...I just couldn't get up to do it. I could tell he was hurt that I didn't go with him. He loves company. I'm afraid I'm getting old before my time.

What if I'm always like this? It scares me sometimes...all the pills, and I'm always tired, and in pain.

sorry...proceed

 

[LilLamb219]

I'm sorry to make you sad!

With medical technology improving all the time, I bet you'll feel back to being yourself again in the near future. Hopefully very soon.

Thanks Lambie. I hope so too.
No need to feel like you said anything wrong.

The last woman who called me that was 82!


Apparently, Porter has never heard of cash.

Don't go there SeaJoy, you don't want to buy into that. Just take one day at a time. Make small steps and keep trudging ahead. Remember you are not alone, we are with you. So please keep smiling and looking ahead to better days The Lord is with you and He will keep you safe.

82 is safer than 28. You must be doing something right if she didn't whack ya with something instead.

Cash? How old school is that?

Porter, you sound like my youngest daughter. That fellow of yours, if he has any brains, had better snag you soon or he'll regret it.

Jim, there's nothing to forgive. I obviously didn't make my point clear. Also, not having the original report (mad at myself here for tossing it ) made any clairity more difficult. But, yes, the individual did prove that people were born with the tendency to this imbalance. The key was that it can be corrected.

Seajoy, much of the tiredness you feel is from all those painkillers. They are causing your system to work twice as hard as it normally would. Like Jim said, just take it one day at a time. Small steps, and goals.

Oh! I almost forgot. I have a friend whom I'm concerned about. I saw her last on Friday afternoon. She pervailed upon me to take a piece of furnature home for her and she would pick it up later. I haven't heard from her since. After leaving several messages and getting no call back for two days, I finally called her church. They haven't seen or heard from her since Sunday afternoon. It's probably not serious, I'm a natural worry-wart. Still, it's not like her, not at all. Pray for Paula for me, Please?

Also, I've had an offer on my trailer. The fellow has offered me five hundred dollars under my price and I told him I'd think about it and call him back. Paula had offered to trade me a motorhome for the trailer and now I can't get hold of her to discuss it. I've been praying about it today, looking for guidance.


Well, I think I'll clean the pot out and turn in early today. The cars are still giving me trouble and I'm tired of the struggle.

Our Lord's blessings to all of you. May he keep you all in the peace that passes all understanding.

Good night.

I had my collar on.

You're funny, Rev!

Yes, well, we've actually had that discussion, but I hope we're moving forward now. It's not all on him. I'd be overly blessed to have such an honorable man. God's will be done.

Take the offer!

That'll be 10% of the sales price for my expert advice.

Prayers for your friend. Let us know when she turns up safe and sound.

I sing alto and then descant as well...odd combo, huh? I joined as a soprano, but our only alto moved and so another lady and I volunteered to sing alto and we also do the descants because not all the sopranos can hit the high G or A

I'm a lyric soprano, and I DO have the high notes. But, like in your choir, most of our altos have disappeared in the past six months. We're down to two -- one who just had a baby and one who can't come regularly. So, as one of the strongest of the female voices, and someone who can read music fairly well, I've become a default alto.

It's funny because I haven't sang alto since High School. But since we got the new hymnals, I've been singing the alto lines. Just did it to practice my sight singing, and because if I can get the alto line right after a few verses, I'll usually pop it up an octave in the last verse, and voila! instant decant.

And now that I've switched over to alto in the choir, I'm very grateful that I've been practicing it with the hymns.

God does work in mysterious ways. *gratefully*

Well, praise God, Paula has turned up and it was nothing serious. Well, for her anyway. Her daughter's father-in-law has been suffering with cancer for quite a few years and the dear man finally went home on Friday night. Paula took her family to be with him for the end. Her daughter is still there helping the family take care of all the arrangements and etc...
So, it's just my being a worry wart.

Actually, Porter, it's the man's attitude that disturbs me the most. He was told in the first place that the price I was asking was the rock bottom I would take. He knows that I'm in a really tight spot and is taking advantage of it. I suppose taking the offer is the best thing. Leave the Lord to make up the shortage. The advantage of the motorhome is that it's worth half again that of the trailer and gives me a place to live. Rather generous of Paula. Still, we'll see today.

Thy will be done Lord.

Anyone for a cuppa? I need a cup of tea. Funny, my Mum was the same way. Every time she was frustrated or stressed, she would reach for the kettle.

Have you ever heard The Roches' three-woman a cappella rendition of Handel's Hallelujah Chorus? *shivers of delight* What a powerful piece for Easter!!

Well, if that's all you had on it would explain it! :o





I sometimes get in such a hurry I wonder if I'm fully dressed......a few miles away from home of course.

porterross, you are so naughty!
