INSOMNIACS place to talk in the wee hours

FierceBluebird

Cake balls? I didn't even know cakes had balls. They always look so girly to me. All that sweet frosting and girly flowers and chit.

Oh, Sassypants... so sorry you had to have such butthead nurses.

Did they not realize they were dealing with THE SASSINATOR????

Bwahahahahahah...

Chevyboy

Okay!  So I'm going to pretend I know exactly what you were talking about Sass....!  I mean that you "had" a "sick" thyroid.... which means one was not working right....  But it was not malignant!  WHEW!!!  That has to be great news. 

I'm just glad you got it straightened out in yourself, before you took all of them on in full body armor! 

So there is "obtuse"...  "Thyroglubulin"....  and "labile"....  I'm going to ask Cammi to explain all this to me...!  And YOU, little miss Sass, just take your pills, rest, drink chocolate cokes, and pretend you are sick!  You just had surgery, and you are rearin' up, and ready to take on the world!  You don't know what FOR, but damnit, you are READY!

Just quit thinkin' so much...  we will all do it for you!  That's what we are here for.... just rest, and let yourself heal!  THAT'S exactly what you would tell me... 

I just polished my nails too, Phylly!   Now we are "stylin'!" Where are you going on your trip?

I KNOW Cammi!  These gals are just talking like that, thinking we won't understand anyway!   And did you see what you said?  I ain't gonna repeat it again, because I am not un-couth!  ... 

Hi Aly!   You too littleTango! 

Yes, of course Blueballs.... I mean Bluebird!   Don't we like girlie chit? 

Such a cute little bluebird Enerva!  How you doin'?

As far as I'M going, man, I was just dead tired today!  Could NOT shake it!  Finally took a nap for 1 1/2 hours, and I feel like ME again!  I DID put together a big pot of OX-Tail stew though!  It is really good.... A "manly" dish....Ha!  Even with a big Turnip!   We get all our Veggies in one-fell-swoop!

Little Chicken cake-balls!

Bluebird & Chicken cake-balls

To all recovering from surgery, a little down time is good.  Milk it.  Have some good drugs and a little fun!

Yep, I make cake balls, but not on a stick.  Mine are just little poppers.  Lemon is my favorite, but I make all kinds.  I make them for neighbors and pharmacy folks.  Mine have the frosting mixed inside with the cake.  I dip them in white or dark or milk chocolate.  Good stuff.

I had my right thyroid removed a couple years ago.  They found nodules they couldn't aspirate.  Once you have BC seems they panic at every little bump.  I don't take thyroid meds, apparently the left side is compensating for the loss.  So far so good.

Bluebird I think u go to the wrong bakery, those cake balls is not Iwhat I had in mind. But that'll do I guess.

Chevy u think I even know what I said and if I understand any of this Doc talk, I'm just plain folk that goes day by day to try and understand anything. Of course I do think we are obtuse, maybe that was meant for us--ya think?

Janis that does sound interesting putting the frosting in the cake mix--makes it sound easier. Not the balls, just making the cake--oh wait u have to make balls out of the mix? to confusing sorry.

OK I'm going to stop now I feel my brain is yelling at me to try to stop thinking--happens all the time and I listen to it-but people don't know only me.

U guys are so cute tonite. I haven't been doing anything

I was really looking forward to this week-end with St. Paddy's day and spending the week-end at my other DD's house with Joey, but I have to go to a service for my one brothers girlfriend whose DD died a few days ago. Oh God how anyone hates these, my sister and I are like OMG how do we handle this--it so out of order and she died suddenly so it's really a shock. My SIL died almost 3 yrs ago of the same disease that my mom died from--I don't even know the name cuz it's one of those long ones--when the platelets are all screwed up and u have transfusions every week and it's horrible. Well anyway my brother has been dating her for about 1 yr and we been with her maybe 4,5 times so we don't know know her. U know what I mean--so I have to go early Sunday so I'll sleep at home then Sat. Whatever.she was to young.

There was a time when I would have done anything to have the stim implanted. But then I'd be in the Big House with your friends. 

Seriously, have you tried a TENs? The sensation is *similar* to the stim. If you can tolerate that, then try the trial with the stim, that's not permanent. Most people really welcome the relief they get from them. 

Why didn't I get one? I quit/retired from driving a school bus. That was the main cause of the pain. L5-S1 is still a mess, doesn't bother me nearly as much.

Cammi - so sorry to hear of your brother's girlfriend's DD's passing. Condolences and hugs...

Cami, You're right. It's super hard when it's out of order like that and unexpected. Just having you there will be comforting.

Alyson

Evening all. This little Ruru (owl downunder) just flying though to say hi.

Enerva

night,

Anonymous

need to get my Insomniacs fix in now, all will be quiet tomorrow. 

Cami, so sorry. Do you need pocket pals?

Spookie, TENS machine? Ooh, nasty, nasty machine (or maybe it was the operator). PS changed my PT provider, they put one of things on me. PT walked in, asked how I was doing, when I said ok, she turned it up, set a timer and walked away. I left there crying and in pain for days. Wouldn't go back.

Sassy, hope you're feeling better.

camillegal

Oh Thanks guys, but just what I need a bunch of crazy people in my pocket and I'm trying to act sane--Oh I hat this--I'm not good in these situations, my sister is better so I stand behind her and let her talk.

OK no communication during the day--sometimes I'm busy and I can't but I don't like the feeling that I can't make a choice. This should be interesting not talking to nyone for HOURS--- so everyone take notes and we'll be fine.

Chevyboy

Oh NO!  I forgot!  We can't talk today?  Drats!  Yes Cammi..... but do you really have to honestly actually go?   I know you think you should, but maybe you don't need to?  Just sorry she had to pass.....  xoxoxo

Okay gals.... see you later!

Must have been the PT. I love my TENs. I can adjust everything on it. It's portable too. It has 8 leads, so can get all the places that hurt!

sas-schatzi

OMG--we are out of commission between 9-3 withdrawal already beginning.

Ziggy--Don't know Greer.But she could be EMT-A. Hudson had a slew of them. I only dealt with the paramedics(EMT-P's). and EMT-P's in training. All levels of EMT's are a hoot when practicing. Good lord at the first graduation i went to I had a BAD sore throat. I told those around me if I grabbed my throat keep all those medics from trying to do the hiemlich. Serious see if you can locate Claire? Tom Skillings and Sandy Race too. 

Cami sorry, condolences to you and family. Bummer

Blessings, yes, I am a bit of a different patient. plus add anesthesia and pain meds. not a good combo. All the negatives of last admission came to the surface. 

I did what everyone said to do, lightened up went too bed and let go off the negative. Good suggestions from all. Brain starting to feel normal. Post op doc visit today. Near as I can tell, lymphocytic thyroiditis is a subtype of Hashimoto's , but we will see what doc says. At least it was a sick thyroid. They actually, sent everything out from pathology for a second opinion b/c "of patients concern re Cancer all specimens will be sent out for second opinion"----Cool.

H-i-1 did you do the dinner or was that what yo said turned into a covered dish thing? It sounded like a- llot to try two days in a row. 

Spookie that was not nice about the TENS, makes no sense that the PT would be that cruel. Sounds like they needed a different profession.

Thanks Maddy, hope your feeling better too I'm near mended. Scar hoping it's not ugly, but I'll get it fixed (or not) if it is. He glued it. Never been glued before, not used to expected outcome. Been doing range of motion and it's all loosened up. Will know in a couple of weeks.

Loved the bluebird for bluebird. Just like the one and only that I saw at Big Bear Dune in Michigan

Have a fun day L&H&P's sassy
