One more week to go.....next Thursday our house should be running with water. Then we can work on clean up - getting walls back up, replace the carpeting they tore out and removed....putting rooms back together.....<sigh> It's been cold and rainy here as well....feeling it in the knees a lot. Rhuemy appt went okay. nothing much other than got my refill. I'm tired and my kids are so fed up with us not being able to spend much time with them, nor having places to play in the house.

I hope you all are staying warm and healthy!

so sorry things are poopie for you CaMama... wish I could do something for ya!

Thanks. Letting me vent helps! tongue   Seriously, I'm just worried about how worn down I'm starting to feel....positive thoughts and just focus on getting the work done and hopefully this will be all over soon. The amount of money this is costing is stressful as well, but we feel it is better for the long haul.....

I hope you are doing well. I'm COOOOLLLLD! smurf **

cool  Thought I'd stop by and say HI.  Haven't been on here in months.  My life is crazy.  Hubby had hernia surgery which turned into full blown reconstruction of his innards and outards(?is that a word).  Had to get a lift chair cuz an arthritic, fat, old woman can't lift a rebuilt man out of bed.  Oh, it was a mess!  I've missed getting on here.  Running the business and fetching for him has been too much.  Like having a newborn.  So I fall into a coma every night. 

More snow and ice here in the Okie state.  Scares me to death as I now have osteoporosis.  That's all I need, a broken hip.  Looking forward to spring.  Love to ALL, Boo

Boo! So good to see you! It has been months! Sounds like you're having a heck of a time, but so good to hear from you! You guys have been getting crappy weather lately... You need to get a winter home, say, in the Bahamas.. then you wouldn't have to worry about the cold and snow! :)
Posted 2/2/2007 12:40 PM (GMT 0)
Hey CaMama, you know that's what we are here for! Vent away!
Posted 2/2/2007 12:40 PM (GMT 0)
Yalinda - that Lasagne looks yummy! Now I have a craving... hhmm....
Posted 2/2/2007 12:45 PM (GMT 0)
maonin duck! hows the weather and joints holding up? feel free to have some of my lasagne, low calorie! hey what ever happened to out diet thread? out the window like all diets ugh!
Posted 2/2/2007 1:04 PM (GMT 0)
Moanin'! Am at work, and can't check my hotmail accountl... but will be shooting you an email when I get off work... Weather is crappy.. freezing rain and COLD COLD COLD.. but should be better this weekend (hopefully)

Ha, our diet thread? Yup, out the window... we need to get back on that... hhmmm... any takers?
Posted 2/2/2007 4:58 PM (GMT 0)

Boo - good to see you, sorry things have been so rotten for you!

Thanks for the lasagna - yum!!!! tongue Lip smacking good!

Diet thread...well, I had STARTED a plan earlier this month....I had put on a most unwelcomed 10 pounds from no kitchen in December....goodness only knows how much I'm putting on this month with no water!!! Fast and frozen foods have been our staple for the last 2 weeks once again. Ugh! Last Saturday I offically decided to hold off on the diet thing until March 1st....

Good news!! The plumbers are coming today to cut the holes in our walls!!!! Wish they were going to do some plumbing so we could get at least one bathroom up and running for the weekend, but I guess beggars can't be choosers.

I'm hurting and tired....could be much worse, so I guess I better stop that complaint right now!

Take care everyone!**

Virtual Dinner! Great idea. Sooooo glad to have a weekend. Waiting anxiously for 4th grandchild. Due date Feb. 6th.
Had to go to max with anti-inflamatory meds yesterday. The extreme cold we're having just doesn't go well with every creaking joint in my body. Probably made some people mad but came home early and got under the covers. Don't really give a flip as they were sitting around doing nothing and I was paying them for it.
So glad hubby is up and around and is able to feed the horses now. I could see me falling in the mud and ice. Oweeee.
Took Ambien too early last night and now I'm wide awake. I love Saturdays! Boo

wow Camama...i will be saying my prayers to the plumbing-gods for a speedy recovery on your pipes.

Boo great to hear from you!

Hey, Erin!  Crutches?  UGH!  Way too cold here and I hate getting out. 

Still no baby yet.  Funny if he came on Super Bowl Sunday as daddy is a sports nut.  His name is Cooper.  All my grands have names beginning with C.  Three daughters and they've all named their kids like that.  Go figure. 

Slow movin' today.  I've taken the max for the joints.  Gonna be another one of those days.  At least I don't have to work today.  I thank God for the small things.  Boo

Posted 2/4/2007 12:00 PM (GMT 0)
how exciting boo! i too gave my kids the same initials first and middle. i joked that if monogram sweaters ever came back they could share... lol and they probaby would cux they r the same size and share all clothes lol

cooper, that is a good strong name ..... i like it :) u will have to tell us when this dream comes into ur life...... is this her first? she been ok? nothing like a baby, but no more for me maybe in 10 years grandkids? then my eldest will be 27.

well it is not a blizzard right now, bad yesterday...... suppose to get bad again, we'll have to wait and see.

2 feet of snow so far, blizzard whiteouts, -18* windchill, and school is closed for tomorrow yippie, wait i still have to work! not fair! well sitting tight by the fire tonight and keeping warm..... lata yalinda

Borrow?????? LOL
I think, given the area I live in...a place like that DOES NOT EXIST.
LOL
People don't borrow here. Stealing yes.
Sounds like a great idea however. If there was one around here I would definitely use it.
Thanx Duck for lookin'. Looks like I'm gettin' new sticks! 25 bucks??? So I guess brand new ones can be found for under 100. That's my homework for this week.
Posted 2/5/2007 5:08 AM (GMT 0)

Erin - is there Craigslist.com for your area? It's pretty popular out here and there is usually all sorts of stuff people are giving away or selling for dirt cheap.

Feel better all. I hope you can all snuggle with some warm socks, blanket, and hot drink!

Erin,
Amazon.com has all sorts of aluminum crutches starting at about $20. Just google crutches. Won't Dr write prescription for them and insurance take care of cost?

Good Luck,
Jem

Thanks...good ideas.
I have never "seen" cruthches "for sale" anywhere...so that's why I'm a little naive with the crutch shopping. I only had one pair..and those I recieved from the hospital.
Well heck..I suppose a RX won't hurt. My wood ones are shot...they are more of a danger than a helpful device.
Stay warm all.
