Nora-sorry, cross-post...man, that guy had a serious case of road rage. It's too bad you couldn't have had a nice lunch. You sure needed it.:hug:

x-post Rusty
I just thought it was funny. Here I am always preaching peace & love and man my hands just flew up to return the gesture. I definitely need to get back to basics!

Bird - I always wanted a jeep. I hope you enjoy it. I'm sure a van always came in handy with your musical instruments. I think it is so cool that you are doing all those chats. To be honest, it would probably be helpful for me too. But, finding time for things is hard right now.

Liz - are you doing ok? I've been thinking about you so much. How are all the kids doing? Did Mark ever get his package?

Pauly - I saw someone said LB was here? I need to go find out what is happening. Did Brady come home?

Glassie - if you check in - I'm sending you good thoughts for a pain free and restful vacation. :heartbeat:

I didn't realize that Liz was already on her trip. I hope she's having a wonderful time.

Re: One Step at a Time - August 2018

Nora, I had forgotten Liz was going to Vermont. Looks like she is having a great time!

I don't blame you for flipping off that driver....sometimes we just can't help ourselves. I hope Scott is feeling better!

Re: One Step at a Time - August 2018

Nora-I don't know if tawny's around. I always liked her posts.
[MENTION=17650]paulywogg[/MENTION], Pauly….where are you, friend?????

See, now I'm the one on here talking to myself. Hahaha! LOL. I talk to myself all the time. I think I'm one of the most interesting people I know. LOL again!

Re: One Step at a Time - August 2018

Well - guess who called out of work today!!! I am feeling so much better than I have been and I decided to take advantage. I am going to take today to just finish getting my head back on straight.
Earlier this week, I had decided I was going to have to go to the Doctor because I just couldn't shake it. So I'll still make an appointment but it won't be so drastic.
Of course, I just told work that Mom wasn't doing well. Which is very true. She has 3 or 4 bites on her arm - not sure what bit her. But, she is scratching herself until she's raw. She just doesn't understand that she can't do that. We have a prescription anti-itch med to give her and of course all the various creams & home remedies. But, it is still driving her crazy.

So, thanks for bearing with me this past month. :huggers:

Rusty - I had just got on and thought that I saw [MENTION=10]tawnyfrog[/MENTION] name showing up. I got so excited. :yay: But, when I checked back, I didn't see it at all. It must have been because I've been thinking about the Undies a lot.
It's so nice to see Bridget back.
[MENTION=17650]paulywogg[/MENTION] - where are you? I am going to have to go hunt you down.

Good Evening!
Pretty quiet. I forgot to mention something....I know I told you my sister's oldest daughter was expecting a baby boy on August 22, and everything went fine except much to her parents' delight, she ended up having a girl!! My niece's doctor was wrong about the baby's sex...she said it was the first time she had made that mistake in 9 years! My niece and her husband cried with joy. They already have a son and they really wanted a girl...Emelia Jane, 7 lbs.:heartbeat: My mom and I will meet her on Sunday. CAN'T WAIT!

I hope everyone had a good Tuesday. On to Hump Day. Sweet dreams, everyone!

I couldn't believe that. What a happy story. But, can you imagine what a SHOCK!!:shocked:

Re: One Step at a Time - August 2018

Nora-good for you for taking a mental health day!:yay: You deserve to recharge your batteries! So sorry your mom got bitten by something...that would drive me crazy, too!
I liked [MENTION=10]tawnyfrog[/MENTION] at the Undies! Miss them A LOT. Of course, our regular Undie here is in Africa! LOL

Pauly-come out, come out wherever you are!!!!!

Re: One Step at a Time - August 2018

Nora, sorry you are down. Speaking of flipping off, I rest my elbow on the arm rest to keep it elevated and yesterday I noticed my middle finger stays up while the other fingers lay down. Major flip off in a neon yellow cast:osteroops:

Re: One Step at a Time - August 2018

I'm baaackkk! Ahhhh…..Nora and I are having a mental health day on the SAME DAY!!!:thumbsup: How is your pain level today, sweetheart? I have no experience with fibro but my massage therapist had it and she had to quit her job, so I know the pain must be unbearable!!:hug: Are the OTC meds kicking in for your Mom? How is Savannah?

AND YOU SAY YOU'RE CHATTY!!! LOL. Not today, my lovely!!

[NoraC]

Re: One Step at a Time - August 2018

Ha - Rusty - we're both goofing off today. LOL
You're sweet to ask about my pain. I seem to be coming out of the flare up and even plan on doing some yoga in a little bit.
We haven't seen Savannah in a couple weeks. They said that they will come over this weekend though.
How is your pain? I know you have neck pain - is that constant? And is your arthritis in your foot constant pain?

Re: One Step at a Time - August 2018

Hi Nora....ooohhhh….it feels so good to goof off! Then of course I am working on audit schedules and reports (YUCK) in between goofing off and watching Mary Tyler Moore and Bob Newhart reruns (never tire of those). Thanks for asking about my neck, back, foot...LOL. My neck is fine with the help of anti-inflammatories and Gabapentin. My lower back hurts like hell when I walk on the lake path and I will be going to see my doc about that next month. I got a script for my foot if I get a flare-up. Aside of wearing a retainer until I get a tooth implant ($5K) it's all good here! Hahaha! So glad your flare-up is subsiding. :hug: What do you take for Fibro flare-ups? What are your plans for the holiday weekend? How's da boss? Still a pain in the @ss?

I bet you won't want to put Savannah down when you see her this weekend. :heartbeat:
