PT- the scent was overwhelming, but was definitely a mans scent colonge. I joke that I have lost sight, major loss of smell, hearing is variable day to day.-------but this was such a strong sence of cologne ----it was so strong that it woke me and it had the point of being recognizable as colonge---but no scent , I could recognize. The key for me was Schatzis reaction. She was calm, woofed versus a protective bark, and the wagging tail. Also, didn't mention she was looking in the direction of the "form" that was moving. I support all her watch dog moves--even if that means getting up allot--all day long and at night. This was totally different than usual. She was smiling. For those that don't live with dogs--when there mouthis open and the back of the lips are raised up they are smiling. Actually a very good signal to look for in a dog.
-
Pt----yes what you asked for was responded too.
-
Okay ya'll, we Are getting into the metaphysical----cool. I kept silent about Greg's contacts for sooo long, add to that the drugs that affect memory, I now want to find those memories that were contacts in the week + post psssing.
-
Fuzzy--what fun talking ----so brings the heart together L&H&P's sheila/sas/sassy

Ive never had any personal contacts myself, but my mom has said she did with my dad. Also 2 of my friends still have a dog spirit that follows them around. Axtually felt one walk by last night as i was sitting here
-
Oh crap. I just posted a HUGE post and then the connection was LOST! AH! I could scream! Wait...I am screaming...Here's the Cliff Notes:
Veggy....with you today and tearingshit up!! WHOOT WHOOT
Sas....never a dull moment with us!! LOL
Rider....oh I love that animal spirit story. Love love love!
Nancy....oh I miss ya girl!
There was so much more....but here's my one large thought for the day....
Could we figure out where the "middle" is for all of us? Maybe we could begin developing a 2 day meeting event for all of us??? Wouldn't that just ROCK! I would look into hotels to find awesome prices, someone could look into restaurants, entertainment, site seeing...We could start piecing this together to find out if it could actually happen? It could totally happen....anyone interested? Maybe we could plan it around April-ish?
-
Ya it was pretty cool. Felt the breeze on me as my g/f walked by, then another breeze behind her. Sitting right here in the living room.
-
Those stories warm my heart. Thanks. Hi Fuzz (and all).
-
I talked to someone on the phone last night and we laughed and laughed. I haven't laughed that hard in months. Last night I ended up taking pain medication twice. My expanders jiggled to much against my ribs. OUCH! They still hurt!
I saw the plastic surgeon today. He confirmed it was a seroma and it is healing nicely. I have to keep it clean and dry. While we were gone, my oncologist called to talk about the results of the bone scan. Now I have to wait until tomorrow. UGH! I a too tired to pace and stay up worrying.
I am going to lie down and watch some TV...no comedies.
Hugs!!
-
Hoping it all goes well for you hon. Take it easy
-
Ooooooooh I love those stories too....I hope they keep coming!
Veggy...no more jiggling...I mean giggling....well, I mean both!!! Oh soooooo happy to hear YOURE HEALING!!!! YIPPPPPPEEEE!!!
HEY ADEY! What up?? I am interested in the Novemeber 17th thing....please send me the details if you wouldn't mind. Great timing.
Rider...does that breeze thing happen often? I'm just not really "aware" enough I guess to feel those things...but I want to! I have a friend who tells me some really wild stories and my mom has lots of those too...but not me (sigh). I'll keep waiting though...
Ooops...be right back...

I got to school today, but I sure struggled. I just can't focus -- except to keep reminding myself how much I hate life. That can't be true, though, or I wouldn't care that I smoked. I refused to answer the phone or the door, so I'm sure Don is pretty confused. However, he is hard of hearing; and I don't have the energy to yell about how bad I feel. I know I am upset that my disability retirement money didn't come through this month. I know that I am upset about the damage done by the hurricane and what that will cost. I'm betting that this level of upset (just a tad shy of suicidal, and not really much of a tad) is from getting off the antidepressant. I'm nearly off of it, taking a half every other day. SSRIs are linked to cancer, so I'm going to have to do my best to see this through. I sure hope I feel better tomorrow.

Dunes.....wrapping my arms around you and hugging you so tight. I am so sorry you're dealing with so much. The hell holes just seem too much to bear sometimes. It's a little strange but today I had a big MH appointment. I had an assessment...and I had to be honest if I expected to get anything out of it. It got to the section where she asked me if I was going to hurt myself - I said no and that was honest...I guess my point to this whole thing is that we need to find the root - the real problem. You have a lot of things spinning and it would be impossible for anyone to see clearly...at least that is what I think. The root of my issue is out there and now I need to focus on how to handle my emotions. And, it took a long long time and lots of therapy sessions and several therapists to get to today...I know I don't always get my thoughts out of my head the way I intend them too so I hope this kinda sorta tells you that I care about you and I want you to know I am listening and here for you...
-
Sorry...one more thing...I battled the terrible SE's and withdrawals from getting off those antidepressants. All I can say is it took A LOT...be very, very careful and do what you need to do...when I finally went cold turkey (after getting to a very minimal dose) and I had very significant withdrawals for 3 months...I have heard there is a different drug that may help with that but I never pursued it...
-
Dunes - I'm hugging you too.
I hate cancer! I'm sitting here by the phone waiting for it to ring. It did ring once and I jumped bt it was the MIL calling for DH. Come on oncologist...CALL!
-
Some of those issues are ezaxtly the reason i stared at my pill bottle for a week before i started the effexor. Then i decided i needed it badly enough that i will just have to deal with the getting off of it later if that time comes.
Dunes - a slip-up does not make a bad person. We all have enough shit in our lives right now that all we can do is the best we can. Every single day. Hope for you that this day is better than the last, and that you can let go of the 'mistake' and just look at it as one way of coping. Just not one you prefer.
As far as the spirits go its not a regular thing by any means but very occasional. It does help to be open to the idea of it but you do not need to be thinking about it for it to happen.. -
Come on phone, RING!!!

I called the center where I had the scan and I have called my doctor. He hasn't gone through his mail yet. Sooner or later one of them has to call back.
Just like my. Son just said and summed up my feelings, " Holy Excrement!!!!!"" (Exact words) -
the interminable wait, these people are so out of touch what this waiting does to us. I'd like to zap them in the nuts or labia for each hour delayed that didn't need to be.

I am distressed by the news coming off of Staten Island. I can't help but believe that these people have been left for last becauyse they are a working class area. How can anyone say they aren't? I am ashamed of our disaster response in this country and how weak we are in that realm. The Red Cross and FEMA know what our actual capabilities are and still people are told to have THREE days worth of supplies. We are NOT prepared and peole suffer. Rant over for now. Please recall I have worked in Social Services all my life, with homeless people and families. I know the people working are busting their butts, it is somewhere much higher up that allows us to be consistently under prepared. This is through various administrations.
Love GInger

Ring phone, RING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (for Veggy)

Thanks for all your well-wishes. I'm a little better today. I'm much less panicked. I figure the drywall can wait. To heck with it. I will get the flashing fix done, but I want the guy to explain it better. I will not allow him to silvercoat the entire bloody porch roof. That would look ridiculous, and the problem is where the porch meets the house, the lack of flashing.
I got the yard stuff out of the porch, so it is a little less crowded in there. I still have to fix up the mess in the back bedroom. I just threw stuff off the bed in there so Smokey could sleep there. He was calling and knocking yesterday but I wouldn't answer the phone or the door. I know it isn't his fault, but I really don't want to be around a smoker. It makes it too easy to eff up.

Ginger--a storey from Staten Island---Glenda Moore's children were torn from her arms by a wave. She sought help at two houses --one said "We don't know" you and shut the door in her face, the other turned out their lights. She sat in the rain for 12 hours until she could flag down a police car. This was Mon at 6pm.
Ginger what did you mean that Staten Island was left to the last?

I meant that services that are already in place in other burroughs are not in place on Staten Island.
People were expressing their warranted frustration on TV this morning. I was reflecting that.

Hi guys. I'm terrible upset. I've also spent some time on research. My Aunt (moms only kin) may have ALS...this comes after ruling out numerous other things. She has spent her entire life caring for others (RN as well). Recently retired. I'm just floored.
