Re: March Miracles~March 2018

Good evening friends,

Well, Lav was called into service last minute as usual. I picked the boys up from their school bus, brought them here, fed & entertained them until 7:30 when their Dad got here. I know he was working one of his part time jobs today, I have no idea where their mother is or what she's doing. They still don't mention her. I am grateful to be clear headed & healthy to be able to do these things.

SK, I sure hope things went well for you today & you are home resting now with Peggy at your side
Outpatient surgeries are so streamlined these days, it's awesome. Way back in the early 70's when I was a new graduate cataract extractions required hospitals stays with the patient's head sandbagged so they couldn't move - ugh. I thought about you a couple of times today!

Pauly, I assume you woke up some time today, ha ha!

Cyn, you are still on duty 24/7!! I hope your trip to NYC was easy.
The storm is shaping up to be a real pain in the a$$ around here. It's just starting to rain now because it's 37 degrees. It will be turning to snow overnight.
Schools are already closed for tomorrow & the governor has declared a state of emergency. There are still quite a few people without power in the neighboring county, sad.
Here's hoping the storm gives us a pass this time around!!

Stra, hello to you & hope everything is going as planned.

Have a safe night everyone!

Lav

Re: March Miracles~March 2018

Good morning...

Well, looks like we are getting snow too. Ugh!

Lav, nice of you to be there for your son and grandsons. Weird no one mentions their mother, but a good thing too. Kids love all adults involved and want everyone to get along. Hope you are not hit too hard with the storm. We are going to Florida on Saturday and I am wishing for calm weather on that day and easy flights. I had to get a new Kindle as my old one just died. The new one is an Amazon Fire 8 HD and it is easy to use thank goodness. I just had to have one for my trip as I cannot take big heavy books on the plane. My son is being harassed at work again by a homophobe who accused him of making a pass at him which is a lie, now saying there is a hostile work environment too, that the other person created. He needs to look for another job again, and this is just so much stress. BUT, I am not drinking and have a support system in place, a plan I am working, so although I am having severe anxiety, it could be much worse. Hey, I think the White House is imploding, so much scandal and chaos. It is getting worse and worse. And so life goes on, right?

Hello to Cyn, you busy girl, what a lot of storms to endure, you have really had the challenging weather all winter. Take care.

Pauly, hope you are doing well.

Skendall, hope you are feeling better, very concerned about the pain. Hope you can get ahold of the doctor, it doesn't sound right.

Have a good day.

Re: March Miracles~March 2018

Re: March Miracles~March 2018

Very quick note to all --

SK, what dreadful news about the pain et al --- I truly hope you will be feeling better today --- sending you lots of light to help your dear vision heal!

Pauly, sorry about Louie - yes, I suppose the parents always think they know best - my mom was a very young grandmother, and nobody listened to her! hope your sleep is getting sorted out...

Lav to the rescue! I'm sure the boys were so happy to hang out with you. Are the chickens doing OK in all this weather? Hoping you don't get hit badly.

Star, so sorry to hear about your son's job -- there are so many frightened, insecure people out there... and they make life miserable for everyone... what's the deal with that? So sorry for your stress -- and glad that you have a plan and are working it -- stay strong!

Well, made it to NYC yesterday. I am tired and a little cranky/emotional. I totally forgot to pack food for me to eat, so I was hangry on top of it all! Got out to a store here before the snow started, so I should be good for a couple of days before I head home. Just did the affirmations for the first time in days, they make such a difference... I woke up feeling hopelessly behind and bad about myself, but doing better now after hearing my 'guys' talk me through abundance and faith in myself. Wishing all well today - SK, special thoughts in that direction ---

Re: March Miracles~March 2018

Hi, I haven't read back, but thought I should post. I still can't see properly. My first cataract surgery went without a blip. Car picked me up at 7:15 and was driven by a redneck ex-cop who contradicted everything I said. Had the surgery and one of the leads to my chest was ripped off so hard I have a hicky mark. Once the numbness wore off I was almost screaming in pain, the most painful medical procedure I've had and I've had a lot. I took 1000 of tylenol, no relief, I added 150 mg of tramadol nothing. I'm seeing the doc this afternoon. They did 40 surgeries a day and it was an assembly line. All the nurses were very sweet though.

I think the difference btwn 1st and 2nd was my dr in WA state used lasik as standard and it was a $1600 optional here. I had checked the google reviews on their website (probably written by the staff) and they seemed pretty good. When I got home I googled complaints and there were 1300 pages! A lot of it was fraud. Advertising lasik for half price and not following through. I could only read with one eye, so didn't get around to them. My eyes were fully dilated and the cut were not protected enough by the glasses.

On the plus side, my driving companion was delightful. Since he retired he has taken 64 trips from Antartctica and Siberia to India etc. So that was a bonus. My spelling maybe haywire but I can't focus well.

Hi to everyone and I'll be back later.

Re: March Miracles~March 2018

Hello everyone. I just lost a long post and I'm too tired to re-create it.

[paulywogg]

Re: March Miracles~March 2018

It posted SK 1300 pages of complaints? That's just awful,I hope you can get some rest tonight

Re: March Miracles~March 2018

Good evening friends,

Lost power for 4 hours last night - 10:30pm - 2:30am when it was just barely raining/snowing. Don't know what caused that but it's fixed now. We ended up with 6" of heavy wet (heart attack) snow & not the 16" that was predicted, yay!!!

SK, I am really sorry to hear about your procedure. No practice should be doing 40 procedures in one day, that's ridiculous. I hope your follow-up went OK & you are more comfortable now :hug:
These are the times I wish we all lived a lot closer to each other so we could keep an eye out on one another.

Star, sorry to hear about your son's woes. That behavior just stinks, especially in this day & age. I think an accuser needs to have proof or witnesses when they make such an accusation or maybe they should be the ones out looking for a new job
I imagine flying will be fine by Saturday. The entire east coast has had airports closed all day today. Enjoy your trip to FL with your new e reader.
This mid-life anxiety thing is really, really tough & muti-faceted. We don't feel fabulous because hormones are unbalanced, we can't sleep real well, we're dealing with more allergies & food sensitivities. Then we are also dealing with spouses having their own mood swings, grown children problems, etc. etc. It's no wonder we 'hit the wall'. I just listened to the 1st of a 4 part video series by Christianne Northrup on empaths - yes, that's us! Next up is her talk about energy vampires, the narcissists in our lives & how to protect ourselves. I have personal experience with them too. Bottom line is we have to do what we have to do to help protect ourselves. I am happy you have found good support

Cyn, remembering to do absolutely everything except pack your own food sounds exactly like something I would do, oh boy! Glad you found what you needed.
I hope you get some time for yourself & let your affirmations do their magic.

Pauly, no snow in your neighborhood I guess, LOL

Have a good night everyone!

Lav

Re: March Miracles~March 2018

Good morning...

Skendall, hope you are feeling better, very frightening with the pain. Like Lav, if I lived closer I would help out. Hope today is better.

Pauly, sorry Louie got sick, sounds like Kell is doing OK with two litle ones. Very sweet time for your family. With the stuff going down with my son, I am having horrible anxiety, but doing my best to work through it. He just has to look for another job, period. There has to be a job out there where people are accepting of everyone. I live in a stupid conservative state, Pence land, and I can assure you, there are lots of homophobes and neo nazis here. Lots of good people too though. Went to a meeting last night and heard what I needed to hear, it was so helpful to me. Having that one on one help is making a difference to me. I hope you are doing well in AF your journey, I am trying to move forward.

Lav, I think I need to get a job this year, I could definitely be busier, we will see after the vacation or into fall. I think too much sometimes and could use extra money of course. I am giving myself at least 90 days AF this time before I make any changes. I want to live my life more thoughtfully and be deliberate. Yes, anxiety is multi-faceted and it is a bit**. I am so stressed out by my son, it is ridiculous, but he has invisible disabilities and would probably be homeless without family help. Very sad for someone who tries so hard. But, we all have problems and our kids do too, we can just help them the best we can.

Cyn, glad you remembered to take care of your food, I hate being hangry. We drove up north yesterday and it was like a different world, snow on the ground, snowed the entire time and was gray and dark, so glad we moved farther south. I am ready for spring and I am sure you are too. I heard NY is having tons of snow. Thanks for the reminder of the affirmations, they are like a prayer to me, very helpful. Everything is working out for my highest good, I am safe, all is well and out of this situation only good comes. There. Better than just sitting with feelings of unknown dread.

Today I am getting ready for the trip, including a pedicure, and looking forward to getting away. Wishing you all peace and strength.

Re: March Miracles~March 2018

Morning friends,Star I think a getaway will do you good one thing I gotta say about Vegas is anything goes really,black,white,gay,straight,trans,middle eastern,tattoed to the goals,etc are all accepted! I lived in Utah before here and it was awful for anything out of their "Normal" hardly any races other than white,gays had to stay deep in the closet,etc,I am lucky to live here I see now,I am sure your son will find something else/better for him Lav,I ordered Relizen last night,I've got to try something else,as I mentioned I bought Estroven but it gave me the jitters so no! Anything you've noticed so far? SK,hope today is better,let us know Cyn,sounds like you're keeping busy,watched the boys last night,poor Lou dozed off but that little turd blew right on my face on purpose as soon as I got there! What a rat haha,wishes for a sweet AF Thursday for us all

[SKendall]

Re: March Miracles~March 2018

lid worries about your son, I would worry too. I just don't understand why people are so hateful.

Lav, spring is on the way, just hang in. Power outs are so inconvenient, I hope your generator is working.

Cyn, thanks for the encouragement.:hug:

Pauly, he blew in your face? Little monkey.

So what's going to bring the white house down, corruption or an escort?
