Fuzzy's Romp Room

Thanks ladies...................

Fuzzy.............shitty day here too......shitty month actually....shore ended early, and took the "gusto" out of the end of the summer.............my daughter is going tomorrow.......my college grandsons are playing their first football game.......would like to go to both places.............daughter said "Mom, go to the game if you want, we're only going down Saturday morning, and coming up Sunday evening to avoid the Labor Day traffic........so i could opt out of the shore......................now what does that mean.............................it means being alone all day Sunday if I decide to not go to the shore,  which is the day of my husband's death.......................not a fun time to be alone..................what do I do........sit and feel sorry for myself...............or wait for an invite, that might not come..................of course Labor Day won't be any different cause we will be home then too...........................and its suppose to be a rainy afternoon.........just what you need to remind you that......................sometimes "life sucks".

Oh well, have to make a decision............sometimes I hate my life...................

Essa and Dunes--what is scientifically neat is acupuncture is HOW OlD in chinese medicine. Since you both have the books you will be able to say an exact time. But I'll jump and say>1500 years. Western medicine nullified everything that got us here. If humans hadn't learned how to survive, we would have died out a very long time ago. What has been surmised is that early humans survived b/c they watched what animals ate. Then the cultivation stage. Healers used herbs and roots to heal. Too much has been lost about early healing elements b/c of arrogance. The introduction of Penicillin was created to the 1930's and_________(?). I have a folk medicine book that describes from the  USA civil war "That those soldiers that had bread applied to the wound that had blue-green mold did not develop infections" DUH PCN.

Have a recipe for sore throat--that everyone thought was Grandmas--found it in this same folk med. book. That now is about 180y/o. If it got written down then, who knows what the oral history on it is? Back to Superbugs, had the orthodox medical establishment not discounted local healers, would we be in the mess we are in now. Frankly, I don't think so. We had a good thing going with the refinement of antibx therapy--the system just didn't use it in a thinking manner which goes back to arrogance. Which if you read about the number of cancers in the last century with our exposure and antecendants exposure to chemicals---duh. breaks in genetics. Now we are the reciepents of arrogance that coincided with lack of respect for the thought that new is not always better.

Then there is Lister---who advocated washing hands before surgery----well back to square one.

Essa---not to be able to go out without a shotgun------hmmmm Well sounds like Detroit city in the 60's--being an ass. We didn't have guns, but went through several riots. The fear is there. Can't leave a close area. Hearing gunshots. Seeing flames. Polarization, except it was human against human versus animal against human. I think I'd rather live with coyotes.

crog - hi!!!  Good to "see" you!

ducky - prayers for Vincent!

Fuzzy, I believe I remember the school throwing out the 3000 year old figure. Let me see when the Yellow Emperor lived. Much of the information was compiled during his time. Tradition holds that he reigned from 2697-2597 or 2696-2598 BC.

I got phone calls from the plastic surgeon's office and the hospital, so it appears everything is a go for Tuesday - very ... early ... Tuesday. LOL. I look forward to being rid of this tissue expander, even though I am grateful that it really gave me no real trouble. It is just very uncomfortable. Maybe I'll start to feel normal again after this surgery. Nah. I wouldn't count on that. We are forever changed. Well, I believe I am forever changed. I do need to get a grip on myself though. Sometimes I act damned luney, and not in a good way. ;>)

Sent message above with several recommendations how to make it work. Once set up should be no problem to do. It just needs us to follow up and keep asking.

Ginger send love and hugs to Marybe ---she has been along time member and supporter of BCO and there for newbies. Blessings for her

The worst thing in the USA medical research history was the limits put upon stem cell research. We have the greatest research capabilities of the world, the greatest application skills--yet it could be turned off by one person. Our President. Set us back by years, b/c he had a a belief. Clucik'em. Stem cell research is the future. IT IS THE BEGIINING OF THE END TO DISEASES THAT CAN BE CONTROLLED. Science research should not be controlled or limited by the government----or one person---the second George will go down in history as being really stupid about this one question, not withstanding the war. But his stupidity about limiting scientific research just was stupid

I have been up since 4:30 am..........went to bed at 12 am...............got up to go to the bathroom, and could not go back to sleep.................had to get up early for the shore, but not that time....................alarm was set for 6:30...........well it gave me time to catch up....................

Vincent leaves today..........I will text him a little later...........I just hope he does ok................actually I think he is probably on his way already ................check in is 12pm, and he has to drive to Providence, RI, from the Philly suburbs................his Dad is driving him......................long ride, and my son drives like a "nut"...........so I hope he gets there in one piece, and my son back home the same way ...............he is horrible behind the wheel..................................ok, ladies, talk to you when I come back tomorrow night...............thank God for you all...............don't know what I would do without you...............you all are my "spark", when everything gets dark..................keep on keeping on.......love you all

Fuzzy - I wish you were shopping with me today. I was waiting for a parking space to open up when two idiot girls in a hug SUV pulled up behind me and kept honking the horn. I stayed put and let them honk. It was a good space, close to the store. They finally got the point and backed up. I thought if you were there with me , we could have done some major b**** slapping. How therapeutic that would have been. Thinking of you!!!!!

Remember that movie scene where the girls in the new VW steal a parking space from Kathy Bates and call her old or something? She responds that she has more money and better insiurance and proceeds to pulverize their car with her big old car. I LOVED that scene.

Fried Green Tomatoes? 

LOL @ the meds thing. The hospital wanted me to make a list of my medications. I asked them if they wanted my supplements too. They said they did. They won't know what to do with that list. hehehehehe

Oh God! I should have gone to church this evening. Instead I took a xanax. I was so bored and wound up at the same time. Too much studying. Of course, I took frequent breaks to clean the house and even cut up vegetables. It's amazing the things I will do to avoid doing the thing I am supposed to do. At least it was productive.

I really wanted to drink some beer, but that would have just made me want to smoke . . . obsessively. So, green tea. Lots of green tea.

Just popped in to.check on evrybody. Hope everyone is doing at lleast one fun thing this weekend. And now ...i want bacon!!!! lol

Gracie nice to meet you too. Yes we seem to be a pretty rare breed although i believe its also called Aredia and i have seen a couple others on that. Zometa seems much more common but is not covered by OHIP.
