JSM's BEGGING FOR BAN THREAD #19 8/05/10 - 8/27/10

[no rose colored glasses]

That's awful pain JSM hope the doctor can give you something for it today 

Thanks No Rose, my doctor doesn't give out medicine all the time but hopefully she will today.

I sure hope so, and mine better tomorrow, or I will pound my fist on his desk    Just kidding, I would never do that.

I hope you pound your fist on the doctor's desk. I hope she will give me something for the pain. My ortho doctor tells me I have a high pain threshold, so when I am hurting I am really hurting. 

You also must have a high tolerance to medicine. I also can take a lot of pain, but up to a point, not everyday, with no relief. I have in the past, believe it or not with some of my headaches, I've hit my head on the wall just to move the pain somewhere else. No wonder I'm so nuts 

Advil doesn't bother me at all, so I take lots of it if I am hurting. I believe you about hitting the wall to move the pain. I know someone that would wrap a bet tightly around his head when he had a headache and said that it really helped.

Well I'm desperate enough to put a belt on my head, with my luck I would have it too tight and pass out

If the gas man ever has to come here again, I will pray it isn't the same man

Good Morning Everyone.  Had more rain last night ugggh enough already but today is beeeeeutiful at 77 no humidity ahhhhhh.  Fridge was warm this morning but the freezer is working fine Uggggggh, what next?  Other than that all is well.  I hope you are all having a good day.

morning...do you think that your fridge is going out? is it iced up by any chance?
it is 75 degrees today so far ...supposed to be cooler all this week than it has been..darn it...loves me some hot weather..

I didn't see any icing, it is a freezer on the bottom and not that old, 5 years maybe?  Grrrrr.  The hot weather is supposed to return for the weekend Cook 

Oh no ~ on the fridge.   I once had a dishwasher that lasted 13.5 months....................so maddening!!  I hope you find it is something simple, did the temp control get bumped?  I tend to think appliances should be long term friends vs. sporadic visitors!!!
ARGHHH

Welcome to the club of appliances that go out way to soon, I'm the queen for that, have issues with the microwave and washer and dryer    They should be long term friends, but not in this house.

Pssst........ No Rose...............don't talk about your microwave, you are going to jinks yourself. 

  Or my dryer, so the gas man doesn't have to come and humor me again 

  Forgot about that one But better safe than sorry.

My brother would hit his head against the wall when he got his head aches just to have another pain try and get away from his head ache.

He said it worked, he was around 15 when he would do it. Please don't pass out if you are going to try it.

A few bullets so you can have an idea of who and how I am:
62 yo
female
widowed after caring for my husband for 10 months
mom to 3 sons...........all grown
I actually have been widowed 2 times .............. (no need to begin an investigation, tho, it is horrible and sad, but not mysterious !!)
have a little shih tzu, PJ, ~ gives me a reason to get up and out of the house
sold auto fasteners for years...........was a true road warrior.... one of very few women in a truly male dominated arena.
retired
live in a way too big house that I can not afford to stay in yet can not sell in the current economy
My view on religion is fitting here:  I am a Monkee, in that I'M A BELIEVER, kinda Catholic Lite
I do some volunteer work at a home for disabled adults
I love SM forum!!
I look forward to getting to know you.
Pat (in Northern IL )

I love your dog PJ, it is true they are the best counselors ever, they have a way making one smile feel so good.

Thank you, MTC,
His favorite toy is that kitty cube he is in for the photo I use as my avatar.   He is a riot!  He rolls all over inside it, hides under it, and gets in it whenever it storms or there are fireworks.   Now if I could convince him to use a litter box.........................

How cute he is Tolerance. They sure help keep us sane don't they.

I'm still embarrassed, and my daughter still says to me, I can't believe you brought out that shirt from Walmart that caused the problem

It gets that bad, I thought that it was just me that did that.

There, I finally figured out how to resize a clearer pic of PJ................
Lots to learn.............

I rarely get headaches, but when I do get one.....................it is horrible.
I, also, get relief by tying something tight around my head (picture Tonto w/out the Feather) but I use a bandana..........
and it helps if I get it really cold first....................
I'd be scared of a belt..............my luck I would get it around my neck LOL!

Amen , sistah!! 
I hate being alone and he really helps............

A scarf sounds better, I unfortunately would have it wrapped around my neck within the hour.   OMG little PJ, he looks just like Scooter a neighbors dog, and Scooter and Zoe were best friends  So adorable he is.

Thank you for the warm welcome and the kindly comments!

Housework.................for a bit.

snip for post of Tolerance:

I am looking forward to trying 5 Guys Burgers..............to date my favorite 'eating out place' is Garrett's at the Golf Shack.  I don't go much, tho, I feel so conspicuous eating out alone.  I mostly go when my sister and her hubby are here (Elgin residents).
I live just off Perryville rather near C V Mall...............no doubt we have passed somewhere..............
Saw your post about Osage..................sounds like you have a wonderful lifestyle!  Hubby and I had plans to retire in ST. George, UT.......................but LIFE HAPPENS WHILE WE ARE MAKING PLANS.
If I ever get to the point where I can sell our home I would love to find a nice small condo.............I am so exhausted from trying to keep our home up.
Hope you are enjoying the wonderful weather!
Do you spend winters at the Lake?


We are home right now...going to the lake soon for some R&R...
I am very familiar with the Perryville/CV Mall area...and Hubs and I were at Garrett's just a few weeks ago..we like it there too...
We are trying to sell our big home too...not much luck! lots of lookers but mostly gawkers it seems..there are too many forfeited homes out there that are really cheap..that is where the buyers seem to be going..We already bought our new smaller home and we are finishing off the lower level..no plans to move in yet until the big house sells..and who knows when that will be! but we are not going to give our house away..Hubs works way too hard to just let it go for nothing...we will hold out till the market gets better...Our house is in Aberdeen Sub...have you heard of that before?

[no rose colored glasses]

Prayers for both of you to sell your homes    I don't blame you one bit cookie it isn't worth it to give your house away, hopefully the right buyer will come along real soon.
