    Seriously Diane......I don't think you could offend me.  I pretty much roll with it!  :)

    Don't feel like an idiot for crying on the phone, do whatever you have to.  I'm sure the nurse/reception will let whomever know that you are upset and need the results. 

    Sheila, maybe you should call and talk it out with her??  Don't want to pry.  We are here for you!

    I hear you Deb, I hate snow!  We only got about 5 inches but the rain on top of it made it sooooooooooooo heavy!  I really miss the green grass of last week.  I was so happy when the previous snow melted.  That only lasted for a couple days.....

    Ray....Usually people view the thread but no one joins.....

    Maybe we come across little crazy...maybe we do....but we really care for eachother

    I call it my Family and friends that I never met......

    And your question yes you are one of the first ones who joined TOL the last 2 years...

    So if you don't mind me asking...I hope you are moving some place warmer.........

    And tomorrow call again...(like every 2 hours)

    Good Night !

    No, you're right Sheila - life does suck very frequently...hope things are resolved soon- don't want things eating you alive.  ((((((HUGS))))))

    Hope they call first thing with B9 results, Ray!

    Today was a better day with my mother.  She understood why she is in rehab in the morning when I got there.  But after my father got there, the dining services lady came to discuss meals and they disappeared for a while.  My mother got mad and started acting the way she did yesterday, but thankfully, she didn't stay angry.  So it was a pretty good day.  She is still confused and doesn't remember a lot of things - like that PT and OT worked with her 1st thing before breakfast - didn't remember that at all.  I hope that clears up soon.  The nurse has high hopes.  I hope he's right.

    (((((((TOL)))))))

    Oops - I didn't post right away so I didn't see that you are having an appt and aren't waiting for a phone call.  I hope your appt is early so you can get your B9 results 1st thing.   ((((((HUGS))))))

    Hi (((TOL)))
    chris, I really hope that as your mother gets the therapy going her focus and memory will improve.  It is so stressful making those visits... Hang in there...
    (((((Sheila)))))  sorry you had a darned down day....I hope tomorrow things will look differently.  Sometimes I know I should be grateful but there are these days when nothing looks right.  Hang in there and I hope things brighten up soon.
    Ray, sending hugs & a prayer for the best possible report.   We are all here for one another at times like these.
    Deb, the photo is beautiful!  When you mentioned the Yorkshire Dales, it brought back good memories.  I went with DH on a military assignment to Lakenheath in East Anglia, UK.  After 2 days sitting on a military base that felt just like Kansas, I rented a car, practiced driving on the left, and set off with DH and a friend for an 800 mile road trip.  We drove through York, then across the Dales, and loved the hilly countryside, thatched cottages, sheep and stone walls.  Like a fairy tale!  I guess your daughter and the family have a good reason to go there now... 

    Stay healthy, everyone!  I am on day 13 of a cold and I feel like I am relapsing. 
    Work tomorrow....nite all.
    Joan

    Hope you finally got some sleep, Sandy, and that the nausea goes away fast.  And that the boys behave. 

    Driving on the left?  I don't think I could ever do that - too scatter-brained - would probably get too confused.  Hope you aren't relapsing, Joan.  These sicknesses do have a way of lingering.

    Grrr, Sandy...I would love to help you remove your boys until they could behave.  Or, just remove them.  I can't stand it that they can be so thoughtless and disrepectful to you!

    Still praying for good results for you, RayRay.

    Hope you are feeling better and got some quiet, Linda.

    Sheila, please feel better...about everything.

    Chris, I think what would be more confusing would be to steer from the right side of the car.

    Yesterday I went to see my staffing manager at the employment agency I have used in the past.  I had recommended new DIL and he got her a job last summer.  She walked out on the job last Thursday (long stupid story) to take another job.  Now, my staff mgr told me she is unemployable by that staffing company and the associated staffing companies.  Luckily he is not holding a grudge against me for it.

    I hope to get employed soon.

    Congrats, RayRay.  I know that no one likes surgery, but it will put you at ease to get it out.

    When I found my lump, my Dr had me scheduled for surgery just to get it out for the size, shape annoyance.  They cancelled the night before due to Bx results and he wanted to talk to me in person.  I knew what that meant!

    YAY!!!!  GREAT NEW RAYRAY!!  Do you mind me asking what state you live in??

    Feel better Sandy, so sorry you didn't get to sleep.  No, they did not close the schools, the snow started at about 4 a.m. and my son was driving to school at 7:30, they hadn't even plowed the streets.  They don't close the schools for 5 inches but they should have plowed before school started even though they would have to do it again.

    Joan, I feel for you.  I am finally better today.  Got to go to the gym!!  My family got sick n Jan 1 with the stomach flu, lasted about 4-5 days, staggered of course.  Then we started with the flu.  My son finally went back to school on Tuesday of this week.  NOT FUN!!!  Take care and hydrate!

    Helloo everyone!  I read too much and of course forgot it all.  sorry!

    Diane is in Seattle :)  And it's cold.  I have guests from out of town plus DS, beautiful GD and DIL coming for dinner.  A perfect reason for OCF delivery, right?  So worn out from guests - they are fun but I am done.  Three day rule.

    Congrats Ray Ray - I only joined in 2010 so I am not an original member.

    So happy for your b9 results, Ray!

    Hope you are sleeping right now and sleep all night, Sandy!

    We had about 4 in of snow yesterday and school was cancelled. 

    the awesomeness has worn off...LOL.

    DS had headrush tonight and passed out.  He did that once before a year or so ago.  Had an ekg which I guess was normal.  What is up with that?  Luckily he did not land on his face like he did last time.  Last time, he hit his lip which got cut up from his braces.  He just got his braces off last Friday.  Imagine if he had done another face plant and knocked his pretty straight teeth out?!  I guess I'll have to mention this to the doctor and see if he just needs to make sure he sits down at the first hint of headrush from now on or if something should be investigated. 

    Today was a pretty good day, relatively speaking, with my mother until around 7pm when either she started sundowning or just started to get upset at the thought of our leaving rehab for the night.  She gets so sad and lonely she says and doesn't like to be alone.  Well, we can't live there...  sigh.
