Daily Check In Thread For All... #128...

Hope everyone is doing good today...many well wishes...

Hi Everyone, Hope everyone is having a good Sunday.

I'm on day 4 of having a nauseous stomach and vomiting, not sure what is going on. I feel fine except for the upset tummy, no fever, no chills, no nothing but nausea. If I'm not better I'll go to the doctors tomorrow. I did go to the store just now and bought some pepto, hoping it works. Not sure why I didn't go buy some sooner.

The worse part is, my grandson woke up this morning with a tummy ache, said it hurt and he thought he needed to get sick. He sat over the toilet for 10 minutes and never did throw up. He laid back down and fell back to sleep, hoping he is feeling better when he wakes up.

Went to a wedding yesterday, it was my youngest son's best friend. I've known him about 15 years ever since he was just a little kid. It was a very nice ceremony and reception. You could tell they are very much in love. They had a bouncy house at the reception for the kids, so my grandson had a blast playing on it and meeting new friends.

cool karen. same old same old here. cold, brrrrr. got to bite the bullet soon and put the gas heater on.

Hello all.
-Jamie turn on the heat. I'm getting cold thinking about it.
-Char really hope the ear issue clears soon
-Karen I never would have been able to catch a fish. Scared.
-Angel has the stomach calmed down
-Cass sorry about the carpet stain
-Myself how's it going. I'm feeling the urge to contact her but don't want you smacking me through the screen. Lol
-Hope everyone else is doing ok.

As for me, I finally came home. I have my 2 week post op checkup Thursday. I'm feeling sad. Back to having these eyes just cry on their own. Lump in the throat. UGH. We are some tough people because this is soooo hard. The ups and downs. One day or even minute, you're good the next- it seems that all the gains you have made are gone and it's back to 0.

Hi everyone!

Still- I'm thinking about you. You have US!! And remember, keep toxic people away!!! You are dealing with enough right now. Concentrate on you!!

Hi Karen- fishing....I have done that in a long time!

UA- hey sweetie!!! Are you hanging in?? I'm concerned about you!

Angel- how are you today?

Myself- hi!!!


Jamie- send me your cold! 97 here today!

Char- I know an excellent ENT in Clear Lake if you want his name.

Cass -I'm sorry about the stain!! What we put up with for our fur babies!! Are you doing ok?

Two words - NO PAIN!!! My pain pump is working miracles!!! But, I'm still upset- I told them I was allergic to adhesives even paper tape. What did they use? Paper tape!! My back is blistered and is scabing over!!!!!! The itching was ridiculous. My son took pictures. It was so red it was almost purple.

Today is the first day I'm trying to wear my binder that supports the pump until everything heals. I'm going to sit up more today than I have. The spinal fluid leakage time frame had ended.

But I'm so happy overall!!!

My love to you all!!

Quick Check-in--Interview went well. I felt it was very smooth and professional and I came off well. We talked about my background and arts training and all kinds of other things. Again, good vibe. Three theatres in the space! Well, two and then a black box. The biggest downside is that my driver side window won't go up!

Bf got really anxious about it this AM, but I got him to agree to talk about it later. In what world is a Monday morning, two hours before an interview, a time to start asking questions??? I get really tired of having to calm him down when I need to be focusing on other things. He needs to be able to do that for himself, and think before he speaks. He needs to do something to focus his thoughts--he doesn't really listen to me and that is really frustrating.

More later. peace out, chawl.

Day 5, still sick to my stomach, threw up not long after getting up this morning. Went to urgent care yesterday and they said it is just a virus, and gave me some nausea pills which are not working. :( I'm so over this it isn't funny, I'm ready for it to be gone. :(

not in a good space at the moment. hi everyone.

Morning all. Very sad. Even the negative thoughts have been fleeting in and out. ( not going to share that with psych dr tomorrow) I just envision them carting me off somewhere. On the other hand maybe I do need to go. Can't get this under control.

I think I'm at a stage of acceptance with the break up. But can't understand why I feel like this. Down and crying so easily. So tired.

ooo, Chart, fancy dress time! Enjoy! And I hope the doctor' appointment goes swimmingly.

Karen--hope it clears up. Regardless, the plants will be happy. Internet problems are the pits. We really need an upgrade here, but neither of us want to pay for it. Honestly, we should. I hope things are better. Ups and downs, but the only solution is working some every day, so that the highs are higher, and so are the lows.

Did you see that, Stillme? Forward, not back into the cocoon of sadness.

Michele--dang--what adhesive can you use? IS there any kind? And yes, they certainly need to read allergies. Grrrr. I have the kind of skin where bandaids fall off, poor adhesion. I use paper tape for my toes, which are wrecked from too many years in heels. I am so glad the pain pump works!

Turn on the heat Jamie--no point in being sad without being warm.

Pit--I am so hoping the bedbug problem got sorted.

Lisa--Stomach bugs are the worst!! Hate, hate, hate. Bananas, crackers. Keep hydrated.Hope everyone feels better.

I am going to clean today--scrub kitchen. Drop books at library. Go to gym. All the basic everyday stuff. BF helped me get my car window up last night, which is good because we are getting a lot of rain. Had lunch at tex-mex place yesterday, and had a celebratory margarita. The bartender made it so strong. LOL. I also need to do some planning--outdoor concert tomorrow (Punch Brothers, Fleck/Washburn.) I am debating the ubiquitous cheese bread, salami, olives, which would be easiest. Seeing therapist tomorrow--haven't seen her since the last job rejection. I am taking this new possibility one step at a time.

It has been raining on and off all day. The sun did pop out for about two seconds max. Ha!!! But at least I can honestly say partly sunny. Though I don't know why I would... Ha!!!

Been lazy today. Haven't accomplished much so far. Plan to get thoughts in order for the afternoon.

Chele, So happy about the pain pump. Hope you find a tape that works. My grandmother was allergic too. I can't remember what they used on her. I don't think I am allergic, but I have very sensitive skin.

Lisa, glad you are feeling better. Stomach problems are the worst. Nausea especially.

Myself, you are always cooking or baking something interesting. Do you make a yeast bread or a quick bread with baking powder? Just curious. I use to make yeast bread and it took all day. I have a bread machine somebody gave me but I have never used it. I am afraid. Tell me they are easy...

Jamie, I hope you are getting restful sleep right now. I hope tomorrow is an awesome day...

Chartreux, I hope that your appointment is going well for you. Keep us posted.

Stillme, You are making great strides I think. Keep up the good work. There are always bumps in the road but we get use to them. They become much easier to handle.

Hugs to all. I hope everybody has a great day!!!

UA!!! Where are you today??? Cass???

Karen...

I will have to do that. Thanks...

Have a great evening...

Hugs, Karen...
