    One Step at a Time - April 2014

    Sitting the Orthodontist with Sedona.....too much fun!

    Glad Jim Carey finally showed up Dots. My husband usually does the ground zero reinstallation of the internet on the computers so my hat is definitely off to you.

    Feel better Zenny. :l

    Big hugs to Nora, Fen, Pauly, mama , k9 , Liz et al. Be back tonight hopefully better informed about all the doings....:h

      I forgot about K9. Thanks for the reminder Pauly. I am exhausted and will be hitting the bed soon.
      Love y'all

        I got some bad news tonight. My baby sister took my mom to several pulmonary appointments today.
        For those of you who don't know, my mom has 90 pack years. That means she had a two pack a day habit for forty-five years. She quit smoking at 68, when my dad had his first heart attack. Cold turkey.

        Despite her best efforts, the appointments and x-rays today revealed severe damage to her lungs. She's on oxygen 24/7 lately and doesn't venture out of doors much any longer. The doctors offered some alternatives....a surgery which can remove damaged lung, but my mom knows that's not a very good option at her age and risk factors. She can attend a pulmonary re-hab, which she is interested in.

        I am so sad, but I told her, and she acknowledges...she would not be alive today if she hadn't quit smoking when she did.

        Any of you...if you are smoking, please, please, please....quit.

        Just so sad right now.

          I'm sorry to report I have a huge vent coming on....

          Well, I feel that it's all happening AGAIN.....That is ... I have once again said and done the wrong thing and gone and alienated another one of these flipping performing arts teachers.......this one was is all pissed at me for simply trading one performance ( there are many they do throughout the year with this choir) for the girls to have the opportunity to audition for a summer musical...god fricken forbid.

          I really didn't think this performance she had scheduled was that big a deal but apparently....it is....

          I asked the girls not to say anything until I gad a chance to talk to their choir director about missing this performance but ....we'll...you know how little girls are.... I was really unhappy with Madison fir doing that and of course now it's all fucked up and I get to spend the rest of this choir contract being ignored and tolerated ...fuck....:durn:

          I'm at piano lessons now with the girls. Her husband is their teacher and we go to their home. The choir teacher barely said hello to me...whereas just last week...we were all smiles and hugs of course........
          Makes me just want to stay indoors and away from all forms of Hunan life for the rest of my natural days and drink.....:upset:

          Sorry to vent and not pay attention to everyone here. I'm just so fucking sick of it all......:upset:

            Oh Nettie - sending you so much love right now. I am so very sorry. I do understand. :l:l My Dad suffered so much with his breathing and yet, my brother still smokes. One more addiction, I guess. :upset::upset:

              I'm really sorry to hear that Fenny... :l

              I agree with you. Smoking is extremely damaging. If I hadn't been inhaling 2nd hand smoke for 3 1/2 hours on Sunday I wouldn't have got sick again. Cheryl is a chain smoker. That's why I've been angry about getting sick again to be honest... because I'm fairly certain I got re-sick from her 2nd hand smoke and how selfish is it to do that to a person? My lungs are weak I think. My blood father died of lung cancer at 47.

              Anyway, I just wanted to say "I hear ya". I'm really sorry about your mum Fen... X Mine quit at 67.

                    So sorry Fen- didn't see your post before I wrote my rant. :new:

                    Quitting smokes is incredibly hard- kudos to mom for doing it eventually. I hope u can be with her. I stopped when Mathieu was on the way and never started again...ironic that Matt decided to smoke.....:upset:

                    Thinking of you sweetie, and your loving mom.:l:h:l

                      Ahhh Kradle... do you want me to go and see her when I get better?!!! I'm coming to the decision that I'm really quite fed up of putting up with crap. We can start a Stepper Mafia. Mama and me will eff her up!!! :H :l

                        Zennie - hope you're feeling better NOW!!! :h Sorry about dealing with the smoke. I just excuse myself and go in the other direction. But, that won't work if you are indoors.
                        I have been battling (IBS with diarrhea) for days now. Really draining. Going to look at foods again. Mine seems to be stress related though.

                            I'm tempted Fenny...I really am...:argh: but she is actually a very nice person which makes it all the more upsetting to me. Part of me is rolling the yes...part of me is clenching my fists and part of me is just completely numb to it all.

                            Thank heavens I have you guys. :l

                            I forgot K9 was in commudicodo for today. Hope she's okay.

                              I'm so mad about it Nora. I was encased in the car like a fucking kipper with her chain smoking all the way down there on Sunday and then I got totally smoked on at the place. Grrrrrrrrrrrr.........

                              I'm not doing it any more. I didn't know my lungs were that compromised but, hey, my dad pegging at 47 from lung cancer should be a bit of a wake-up call! :nutso:

                              A friend of mine did a colon cleanse that cleared his IBS Nora... it was a clay thing, just s=trying to remember the name now...

                              p.s. Taco's lungs must be black... the poor wee thing is only 4 pounds...
