INSOMNIACS place to talk in the wee hours

Rose, you know you can get a headache with Zofran right? And sometimes hunger can trigger nausea? I don't know. I better stop before you develop annoyitis. You need a break, you poor thing. Wish you lived nearby so I can bring you some home made herbal chicken soup I am making for Hubby who is sick also. Hug

Lovlife- No idea where the N came from. Zofran does give headaches. We also have a huge weather system that just cleared out our 86 degree fair weather, turned it into storms, rain and chilly 50s! I am sensitive to weather changes, pressure changes and am sure the combo is the reason for the head ache. I have to remember most of the folks on this site are stage 0-3 and not years into stage 4 like I am. Some stage 4 folks get a drug they tolerate really well and ride it out with little side effects. I have not been so blessed, most days I feel crummy. I haven't been taking any of my prescribed drugs, so they are not the reason. I do not want to develop annoyitis.

Our fair weather returns by the weekend where they are expecting 90 degrees! Be well.

Rose, your weather woes sound like me and fibromyalgia. Just let a low pressure system get a few hundred miles of me and I HURT. It's no fun.

I'm going to try to keep up better but this week has started out bad. DH called me out this morning to see my oldest goat who was clearly in distress. She was nearly 13 and died on the way to the vet. Not the way to start the week. DH took his last personal day until November. Hoping he has no major illnesses until then. His work is pretty good with him taking an occas. unpaid day so it shouldn't be a problem. Vacation days he has plenty.

I am only 6 pages behind. Texas is finally dry, had the last rain of significance here on Sat. morning. But and a big but, places are still flooding and some new ones daily. Not near me thank goodness. Saw lots of water in unusual places on way to vet. The west fork of the Trinity River flows just east of us and its flooding out in rural land.

Like Hi1, Spookie, who else I have the same kind of hubby. We are lucky to go to OK 2x a year and may not get to go in October because of his job. Went on cruise years ago but was work related, corporate office support of sales. No way would I ever get him on one again and this was mostly free for us. Hi1 - my DH is fixed on doing as little as possible on his days off (though I certainly appreciated him today). He may, maybe not certain, switch jobs (retail) with something that will put him more regular day hours rather than 12p-9p. Either he is resting for work or working. Bummer during the summer when grass yells mow me. It will mean I have to take back more responsibility for the goats esp. during the winter.

See 2TA and Pawprint have been around. Come back, come back. And Beatmon.

Happy Birthday Hi1

HaHa Sassy. We have talked about our yards. We mow whatever is out there. I try to keep those terrible thistles outta the backyard and right around front. Otherwise if it's green, mow it. DH did let my Indian paintbrushes go to seed. Patch gets larger every year. AND YAY I have lots of tiny plums and a fair amount of peaches. I call the plums 2 bite plums, that's about all you get. The peaches look a bit bigger. One thing the flood has been good for. That and my cannas are doing good though I do - hate the job - have to weed them soon.

Geesh Marlana - whata nurse NOT. Did she even bother to read your chart? Have you been practicing your withering look? At least you had a good comeback.

Should be able to keep up better now. My Eagle Cam closed for the season, one reason I was not on recently. Trying not to get involved in any others right now but I do love my eagles.

Oh yes, Yay Blondie. Sounds like Florida is going to happen

Welcome DebiAnn and any else I cannot remember. As usual I started this hours ago and just now finishing at 9p.

 Sending a lot of caring thoughts of this wonderful and

caring people here. May You all find peace and comfort

and know this is a wonderful place, with wonderful and

caring people.  God bless You

Hi Foot, hope you are comfortable and have peace yourself too.

Any body home? Where is everyone?

I'm here! Been on Lowe's shopping for a new disposal. Not fun shopping but this one's going kaput. An oversize cuppa coffee for everyone.

Rosie - hope the tummy is better this morning. Yogurt does a number on my GERD. An hour or so later I'm reaching for the Zantac. Even the less acidic flavored ones. My favorite is Cabot vanilla bean. I could eat it like ice cream. Like the lemon meringue and key lime pie but have to watch those, the worst for me. Never heard of redundant colon but did google some on it just now. Have had IBS for years, come/goes. Know the not getting far from the toilet syndrome. Actually had to take an Imodium the other day, 1st in several years. Had to be someplace and knew there was no way I was using a dept. store toilet (other than for a standing tinkle lol).

Love - cute dog picture. Wish mine would do that rather than jump at the door.

Sassy - good thoughts for your biopsy results. No would be with the same company. HR dragging heels about posting job which is 1st requirement. Another guy wanting to change jobs, I almost think they might trade jobs IF HR gets off their collective hineys. He needs to be somewhat happy in his job, still has a little over 2 years until I turn 65.

Yes I saw pictures of the cattle drive. Disasters bring out the best in people. Have seen stories of horses boarded, a cat place boarding dogs from rescue facility. In Texas shelters don't stay open long, neighbors take in neighbors.

There is still flooding. Getting tweets just about an hour ago about a levee breach south of Dallas.

Try Weather Undergound. It has an OK looping radar. http://www.wunderground.com/

For that matter the weather channel online's is OK too

Went for a 3 mile walk with a friend this morning. Beautiful day today. It feels good to start exercising again.

Hey Rose!!! Hope today is a better day for you. I promise I won't try to practice medicine on any one TODAY. Starting last year I have been experiencing bone pain a few days before it rains and sometimes I get a headache nowhere near a seven though. It's interesting how the fluctuations in the barometric pressure affect our body.

Goats, no fun when things break down. Had a technician came by yesterday to fix our refrigerator that we bought 2 &1/2 years ago! We have the one with the freezer on the lower section. For the last few months we had to take out sheets of ice that built up on the bottom of the fridge. It's like a skating ring down there. We should have called them sooner since it's still under warranty, but I get stressed out when I have people coming to our house to fix anything or even to clean the house. So I end up trying to fix or do things myself with little success.I know I am weird. And I know what you mean about using public restroom when you have the run. My biggest fear is when I am on the road in another country especially in less developed countries where public restrooms are scarce and NOT what we are used to here and the sound of mini thunder in your stomach forewarn you of the coming storm...oh boy. You start to panic,sweat bullets, and start praying that you make it to your destination in time. Thank God I was delivered each time. Yes, yogurt bothers my stomach too when it's not behaving. Just looked up and saw your other post. Took me nearly an hour to write because I get distracted easily. Anyway, disasters does bring out the best in some people. It brings joy to my heart to hear that people are out there trying taking in neighbors or trying to help each other out.

Ms. Sass, hoping for favorable biopsy result. You have a lot of roller coaster rides

Oh THANK you! Yes, mix it in a smoothie! Add a banana with any kind of juice, and that flavored coffee cream! 1/4 C. of Aloe! It does wonders for anyone.... is also a natural anti-biotic.... I had a bleeding ulcer years ago, and I drank it 3 times a day for MONTHS, and just the first day I tried it, that PAIN was gone!

Hope you gals weather is okay.... just plain hot here.... have to stay inside this time of day..... Ha! FIRST it was the never-ending cold and snow.... NOW it is HOT! Almost 100 on our back patio!

OH! Get this.... See, I KNOW we are on water restrictions.... okay? So I set the rotator sprinkler for 1/2 hour yesterday.... I was going to shut it off before we went shopping.... Okay, that's right! I forgot! When we got back home I saw one of those tiny little puny "cars" out front.... I thought, "OH CHIT!" I turned off the hose, went and talked to the guy, and first thing he said was "You aren't in trouble".... This is just a note to remind you that you aren't supposed to water between 10 a/m and 6 p/m.... EVERY day! Like NEVER! Then he gave me a sprinkler, a gift from the water department, and told me I could hand water any day, just NOT between 10 & 6....

We can water 3 days a week.... And I do must of it by hand ANYway.... Bet I never do THAT again! I got so busted!

And Lilgoats.... I'm so sorry! I'm sorry for any of our pets, or animals.... I'm glad your Husband was with you...... I'm sorry.......

And one other thing.... I am so sick of this Bruce Jenner crap! And those pictures of him/her?????? Am I the only one that is just disgusted by the whole mess? The Kardashians are bad enough, but now THIS? Maybe I'm just too told for this..... but holy criminy! Eeeeeeeeeks!

Chevy - yes I am also sick of the whole bruce Jenner saga. Oooh you got the water police after you.

Rose - feel better soon. Did you say you are not taking your cancer meds now ?

Loveroflife - 3 mile walk - wow you go girl. Hope your dh feels better soon

Blondie - hugs

Marla - glad you are doing so well on day 6. Yea !

SAS - praying for good bx results

Luvmygoats - sorry to hear sbout your goat dying.

I had an awesome day with ds2 yesterday. Like off the chart. !!! The nurse called and said my lab from yesterday showed my thyroid still too low. Increasing thyroid meds. I am relieved to know that's what has been causing my migraines not progression. Yea !!

Hootie hoo
