INSOMNIACS place to talk in the wee hours

kathindc

Sean Connery is another gooooood looking man.  And, on the younger side Leonardo DiCaprio.

camillegal

Oh good looking men, nice topic---Paula no one listens to Chevy anyway so why would we start. I think George Clooney has the whole picture not jut good looks but class and presence, and Sean Connery being older still has it. And Leonardo DiCaprio is still young but he's growing into it.  There my thoughts are documented.

And everyone who is or has just had surgery Ouch no matter what--And I've always heard fills are not fun. but I never had any so I can't talk with anything that I know.

Holeinone

Cami,  I am with you, can't talk or relate to these fills, but holy hootatoly. It sounds dreadful, and everyone going thru that has my empathy. Ouch...

Back from rads, have lots of stuff to do, was very lazy in my blue funk. Feeling better, now need to get my rear in gear, and I am thinking of good looking men ! Whew, who started this ?

Alyson

Just watch it you lot. George Clooney is mine- oh well maybe you can have him so long as I get Sean Connery.  Really jealous of DD1 Sean Connery kissed her one night after an opera soiree she sang at!!!

Was about to say good morning and hope you are keeping warm.

Holeinone

Alyson, do you sing ? So amazing that your DD is an opera singer. A famous opera singer is going to sing the national anthem at the Super Bowl..great change.. Give alot of people some exposure to a different genre of music.

Chevyboy

Cammi!  They are talking about us!  I know...!  I heard it.... I mean I read it! 

And since when can't we talk about sex?  You guys, I am older than any of you, and we STILL do!   So think about that for a minute.... kay?    That's all I am going to say.. maybe.... probably.... at least for now....

Religion is another thing....  See some people believe in this, and some people believe in that, and I don't care what anyone believe in.... Just so they don't try and change me, because I know nothing...

And Politics.... I know even LESS about politics!  I know about chickens..... and weed..... I don't do weed, but I'm sure it's fine....  I just remember that long piece of brown weed my Brother and I lit, when we were playing in the ditch!   I thought we would surely burn holes in our lungs!   It just burned!  And didn't do a thing!  Just turned to a stick of fire in our hands!  Silly kids!

George Clooney IS the most handsome guy I have ever seen!  Gets better with age!  And have you seen Brad Pitt Lately?  He is just "hot"....!  Ever since Thelma and Louise!  He looks soooooo much better without all that hair on his face!  

So we went to the Cremation place.... I have to say that gal and my DH just kept kidding each other!  They brought us warm chocolate chip cookies and coffee!    So THAT is all taken care of!    No more thinking about it.

AND before that,  had to take Lacee-girl to the Vets!  She is not feeling well.... and she is only 11... But she won't eat!  She was a little heavy last year, at 37 pounds... But now down to 24 pounds!   The Vet took blood.... she got sick last night, so I gave her Pepto-bismol....   She has been slowing down for about 2 months, and has no appetite at all!

 Now the Vet will call tomorrow to tell me what they found.   He said her heart sounds good.... she has no lumps... no external signs of anything wrong, other than her arthritis, and I give her those glucosamine chews to maybe help. 

So she is all I'm worried about right now.... Gotta make that little girl better! 

Chevyboy

I made a few of these "Memory Quilts" about 10 years ago.....!   I stitched in pictures of my family, friends, our pets, and beautiful sayings.

And then put thin batting in between the flannel backing and the quilt....  But soooooo much work!  Now I just crochet....  and crafts.

For Maddy – found this on Pinterest a while back. No clue if
it works or not; I’d never be able to haul my fat a$$ up onto the bathroom
counter to do this.

Blessings2011

Camillegal – looking forward to seeing Katie-Kat!!!

Alyson – sorry about stealing your cat… I looked for a label
on him, but since there wasn’t any, I figured he was available!!!

Sas – that was the greatest thing about the hospital bed at
home… I could raise the mattress under my knees, and my back never hurt! I
could also play around with the angle of “rise” at the top, so I wasn’t laying
flat.

(((((Njmom3)))))

Teka – stay warm!!! Gonna be cold here today… only 67
instead of 70…. (sorry!!!)

StacyLeeH – remember, TEs are only temporary! Hang in there….

Soteria – anything you’d like to share about….YOU KNOW!!!???

Holeinone – I LOVED The Descendants! As far as which stars
aged better, I never go to movies, so I am always shocked to find out how old
actors really are, or when I see a decrepit pic of them in the gossip magazines
I read at my pedicure appointments.

Chevyboy – sorry about your Lacee. It’s hard when our
furbabies are sick.

O.K. I'm up; I'm dressed. I even have makeup on. (Went to Bible Study this morning, but passed on lunch with the girls.) Now I'm thinking I shouldn't waste this effort.... maybe I'll go run some errands. I stayed in my jammies for the past two days, so now I gotta make up for lost time.

Or maybe I'll just take a quick look at Facebook..... or Pinterest....

Hope all you Owlettes are having a good day!

xoxo

Whoa!

Chevyboy, Teka & I, wishing Lacee-girl is on the mend!   *Hug*

Sas, about the dislocated knee. No X-ray was taken because I was in my 2nd tri-mester. 

You gals can have ole George.....I'm with Alyson! Give me a He Man like Sean Connery, or a pretty boy like Brad Pitt (Chevy) or Rob Lowe. I never thought Jack Nicholson was great looking, but I bet he was a Great Roll in the Hay!!!

I contacted the moderators to see about a new forum that would have multiple topics. I think that would be best so those that have dealt with different aspects to BC can post their views, tips or tricks they have learned along the way.  

Alyson

This is me doing a happy dance, nodes and thyroid clear of nasties; just lots of nodules on thyroid and vocal cords. So have to have function test and that's it. It is coming up to mammo time but will deal with that when we get to it.

Teka

Alyson,   I am joining you in  the Happy Dance.....

Hello ladies....I have never posted on this thread but I have a question I would like to ask...I had been taking sleeping pills for 4.5 months and this week I am trying to get off them.  I also take Xanax.   I tried melatonin and it did not work for me so I have stopped taking sleeping pill...generic for Ambien and I am taking 1-2 Benadryl.  I would really like to quit taking everything by the time I return to work on 2/3.  Does anyone have any experience getting off sleeping pills and how long it might take?  Thanks for any help. 

Teka

lovewins, Welcome!

sas, will probably be along later to give some excellent advice!

lovewins

thank you Teka!

Smaarty

SAS-I had a question, can someone with TEs or implants have shock applied in cause of a heart attack?  Just wondering.

Wren44

Aly, Congrats. What is your very regal cat's name? I'm always looking for good cat names. If strays come into the shelter, we give them names.

Alyson

Cat 1 is Barnabas. Well that's what I call him. My children named him Dr Barnabas Opium!!! He is part Russian Blue

 Cat 2  below is Angus

Welcome  lovewins, sounds good u'r going back to work--don't worry Sas or someone will be here to explain all the dos and don't---personally I like the dos

My glorious cat is Named Katie-Kat--Aly she's a Russian Blue too. and so cuddly and lovey-dovey.

Smaarty

ok ladies, I have added a new topic, "tips, tricks and how to survive this chit". Please check it out, add your 2 cents worth and spread it around. Hope it helps.

My cats are Parker, Tinker, Riley, Missy, Buddy, Morgan, Squeakers, and Grim (I didn't name him). All are mutts. 3 are strays that have adopted us.

AWWWWWW

Chevyboy - I think we posted at the same time. That really is a gorgeous quilt - and YES - I'm sure it was a lot of work!

Smaarty - thanks for the new thread. I think I want to live at your house - I miss my kitties!

Wren - I always named my furbabies with person names that would go well with my last name. (How original.) Our no-kill shelter here names all their cats and dogs. They'll post a pic, along with a bio, and a cute story. So many get adopted that way!

Yay, Alyson, on the "no nasties".... So no-label kitteh is Barnabus, and that lovely ginger is Angus! I just love a kitteh with CATTITUDE!

Hi, lovewins!

camillegal - I LOVE Russian Blues!!!

Well, I should be really sleepy about now, since I had to set the stupid alarm clock for 7 a.m. this morning... but noooooooo!!!! Guess I'll go to bed anyway and check out Pinterest on my iPad. If that doesn't work, I'll be back!

Blessings2011

I'm back!!! (not really, haven't gone to bed yet...)

From my favorite children's book author and illustrator, Jan Brett - "The Owl and the Pussycat"...

Good Morning!!

My MIL had a Burmese named "Burmey". He was beautiful. I had one cat I inherited from my DM's cabin in OK. He was Hopalong. 3 pawed. She thinks he chewed it off to get out of a trap. He got very lonely when I worked nights and slept all the time and started spraying. Vet said no illness, just bored and telling us his way. He went to live with DM's dog groomer and her troop. Later when working evenings I got an Abyssinian female registered beautiful "Tessie". Had to have her put down at age 8 - spinal prob. and she was paralyzed overnight. DH said no more cats. He just tolerates the dog. There was the cutest pair of female dogs at Petsmart yest - sisters only going as pair - Ginger & Spice. I would have loved the smaller one but no way taking another dog till this one is gone. She's looking much better with 2x/week baths. For a couple of months she felt like you-know-what till extreme freezes killed most of the stuff. But I see weeds blooming in yard - dandelion and some purpley stuff. She looked like one of those Chinese crested with no hair.

Yay Yay - I think Mr. Bucky may be going to new home tomorrow. DH has been emailing a lady. Bucky was on Craigslist and DH missed seeing her 1st email. She has 3 ladies and hope she knows what she's in for. He stinks to high heaven. This cold weather has them all romantic. These goats will breed year round except deep summer heat. Most goats only breed in the fall. But then they would kid in summer - 5 mo. gestation. Not fun.

Who asked about Pinterest? I bookmark lots of stuff off there but don't have my own page. My bookmarks are endless but somewhat carefully categorized. Doesn't mean I look at them much though.

Blessings - I just play solitaire on here until my eyes blur. Trying to improve my percentage. Wonderful goal???

Good morning Teka.

OK Blessings - look on Zazzle for Three Happy Owls stuff. Cute. Wish I could find something out shopping with owls. I'm a touchy/feely shopper so not much online.
