  1. I don't take the Aleve on a daily basis. I actually only take some about every 3 weeks. I have a really high pain tolerance and just forgo any meds till I really need them. I seem to do really good with the Aleve. Not so much with the Tylenol. But I do agree with the size of the Aleve being a problem. I'll have to look for the little round ones instead of the oblong. Or just go ahead and bite them in half and than swallow. I do that with Tylenol when I take it. I'm so proud of my nephew for making the decision to check himself in. A big part of it is that he has been dating this girl for about a year now and she was never aware of how bad it had gotten. He hid it from her. Well now that he has really fallen in love with her he see that he needs to get himself better so that he can provide a good life for her. He has his application in at the Union hall to become an Electrician like his brother. He knows that they will be drig testing him. So I had a talk with the girlfriend today and my niece and I both told her that we felt that it was his love for her that made him make this decision to get help. We stayed for about 2 1/2 hours with him and had some good talks with him. You should have seen the boat load of crap we took to him. Little Debbies, gummy candies, PB crackers, runts, peanuts and his very favorite- Starbursts. Oh, and pringles. He's good till next Sunday. Thank you all for keeping him in your prayers. I'm off to bed now. I'm very tired. All of this emotional stuff and than working out as much as I do each week is really catching up with me. Have a great night, hugs to you all.
  2. Just finished sharing an english muffin with peanut butter with the hubby. Yummy On my second load of laundry. Now I need to get dressed. Thought I would stop and get some Starburst to take to my nephew. It's one of his favorites. I'll start in on my water here soon, just don't want to drink to much so we aren't stopping alot along the way.
  3. Woke up early but that's ok, I have a lot to do today. Body is aching pretty good. I think all this working out is starting to catch up with the muscles. I had a restless night. I need to take some aleve but I always get heartbutn when I do. It just kinda sits at my band and than I have to take some rolaidss. Vicious cycle we go thru. Rememeber my nephew that stole my pain medicine this last summer. Well, he checked himself into rehab last week with an addiction to pain meds. Today we are driving to go visit him. It's about an hour and a half to where he is at. I'm so very proud of him that he finally admitted he was addicted. It's a long road ahead of him but I think he is strong enough to make it. So I won't be home till later this afternoon. Everyone have a great day.
  4. Terri, Did you get the package?
  5. Hi Carson Ummmm Laura, Where's your Ass?????
  6. Morning. I'm up and getting ready for My support group meeting also. Just wish Judy and I were going to the same one. Went to my workout last night and than we decided to go to Applebee's afterwards. Apparently I was the only Catholic there. I got the fish and chips. Long day ahead of me so I will check in when I can. I agree with Laura, kill the little sucker or set it free far away from your house.
  7. Hey Guys, I left this morning at 9am and went to a friends house to strip wallpaper. I got home about 4:15. That was a lot of steaming and paper pulling. We went to Hy-Vee's and ate at the salad bar. The strawberries were delicious Now I'm just relaxing before heading off to my workout class. Looks like we all made it to the weekend. Have a good one.
  8. Getting ready to head into work at the hospital. We had to trade wednesdays for thursdays since I go to reboot on wednesdays. Just need to finish up some laundry before I go. This morning I went to the grocery store to pick up our prescriptions from the pharmacy. So I pick up some groceries while I'm there. $88.00's worth. Get home and guess who forgot to pick up the meds. Dang, I hate when I do that. Now we have to stop on our way to the hospital. I cetainly hope I get some sleep tonight. Judy, I'm so ready to turn the heater on and get this pool thing going. Someone asked me the other day when we were going to open it up. I'm think by the end of April and they told me they don't open theirs till June :w00t:. If it was heated right now I would be out in it. Just joking.
  9. Well, I did manage to go back to sleep in my chair for about 45 minutes. I'm still a cranky ol' B. I told hubby I was just going to have to stay that way. I'm not taking a nap now. I'm just going into work at the hospital with this bad mood and headache and when I get home I'll take a muscle relaxer and sleep all night long. Somehow I'll break this pattern. We actually have a air filter machine that is very noisy in our room. I can't sleep with out it. Even when we go on vacation we have a fan we take with us. No radio or tv for us. No tv even in our bedroom. Married 26 years and have never had a tv in our room. I was at Wal-mart this morning and I walked pass an aisle that they were putting pool stuff out in. Judy, I bought 3 floating chairs. I am so ready for summer. Guess I'll need to get my bathing suit out and see if it still fits. May have to get a new smaller one. I love that. So cool. I hope they have chili in the cafeteria tonight. It's so cold here today. Happy Birthday Jenn. Make it a good one. Here's a pic from my Reboot class.
  10. Morning. Not a good one here. For about the last week I have had the worst troubles with my sleeping pattern. I don't have a problem getting to bed or falling asleep. It's when I wake up several hours later to go to the bathroom that the troubles start. I crawl back into bed and instanly my mind goes in to over load. Nothing in particular. It can be anything from thinking about what I have to do that day or what I had done that day or remembering seeing something or something I had read or even a song going thru my head. It's just that I will lay there for at least a good hour with all kinds of crap running wild in my mind. I usually turn the light on and read for a little bit till I'm exhausted again and I can go back to sleep. But I have just wasted about 2 hours. So last night, same thing. I go to sleep around 10pm, wake up at 3am to potty. Get back in bed and the mind is wild. I turn the light on grab my book and read till 4:30. I can't hardly keep my eyes open when I turn the light off and just begin to doze off when Hubby starts rubbing my back and says hey, I saw the light on and was just checking on you. OH &*^%ING GREAT. Now I'm wide awake again. So it's up and out of bed, feed the cats, fix my hot cocoa and turn the tv on. I have headache and I'm irratable. GRRRRRRrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr. Watch out everyone. I don't know what is causing this to happen and I hope I out grow it soon. I'm pooped. So excuse my bad mood for the rest of the day. Hopefully I get a chance to take a nap before we have to go work to at the hospital tonight. Everyone have a great day.
  11. I love Facebook. I have reconnected with about 8 people I went to school with. We are having a blast chatting with each other and calling each other. I miss all them so much.
  12. Just got home from workout. I feel like a big bowl of walking jello. I webble wobble. Seriously- we did 400 crunches, 100 of them holding our feet in the air. I'm dead. Laura, that is the cutest thing I have heard. Carson is already a hoot. Can't wait to see videos of him when he gets here.
  13. Tracy, I'm still sending you the shirt. You deserve it and you can take a pic of you wearing it out in your backyard lounging and drinking a margi out of a bottle for me. I asked about the Twitter because over at the side it says to follow us on Twitter.
  14. No, Really. I didn't forget about you. It was a typo error. That's it. The site mistakenly removed your name. That's it. That's my story and I'm sticking to it. What size do you need????
  15. Have any of you guys joined Twitter?
  16. Laura, That's a sad e-mail you sent. I hope your parents don't fall for her tactics and send her anymore than what they are doing. She's lucky to be getting what she does. On the T-Shirt issue, I will probably send a 2xl. I'm always afraid os shrinkage with the material. If it doesn't shrink let me know and i'll send a 1xl. Right now I'm waiting for the short sleeve shirts to come out. I didn't think you guys would like to be wearing long sleeve in the summer heat.
  17. UMMMmmmmmmmmm!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I've seen the pics, You can't fool me.
  18. Terri, slowly I have been sending each one of you a T-shirt from where I live. I'm hoping that you all take them with you on your trip and than take a picture for me. This way I feel like a little part of me is with you guys. I still have Haydee, Laura, TracyK, Jenn and Pam to send to. I will get them out as soon as I buy them. Judy, TracyKS, Janie and Kat already have theirs. If I'm missing someone, let me know. I'm gonna miss being with you guys.
  19. Hey Girls. Woke up at 3am and hve been up since. I went to work and than did my monthly shopping at Wal-Mart. So now I'm home, everything is put away and I'm catching up on a show. When I'm done with it, I'm headed back to bed for about an hour and half. TracyKS, I can't think of anyone who would be ebtter suited to lead a group than you. I would follow you. Heck I already have. I'm here. Tell Beverly I said hi and would you give her my e-mail. I would love to get caught up with how she is doing. I hope to see you at the meeting this weekend. Jane, you and your family are definately in my prayers. I realize being put in prison that there is a huge adjustment that they go thru. It will be a long process for him to get adjusted plus there will be all the appeals that will be made on his behalf also. Headaches and nightmares. Send him my love and let him know he will be in my daily prayers. Jenn, Are you getting back with Kev?????? What's the deal girl???? Pam, good girl for getting up and going to workout. Off to bed for me now.
  20. Happy Birthday Denise -- Where ever you are. We miss you around here.
  21. Home from work and getting caught up on Am. Idol. BIL is outside grilling some burgers for us. Not much else to report. Hope everyone that needs it has a better day tomorrow. Hugs.
  22. I wonder why TracyKS is avoiding us???? Just got back from a little shopping, now I'm off to go to work. BIL is going to grill hamburgers for dinner tonight. Yippeee. Judy having Grady withdrawls.. Cute. Terri, I mailed a package to you today. They said to look for it around Friday.
  23. Morning Girls. TracyKS, how are you feeling this morning and you need to let us know what happened. I slept in a little this morning. Must be the workout from last night. She's good. I really enjoy going to this class. Jane, did you get any of the storms from last night? We got a lot of rain. Sorry about threatening you. You know I would never come over and hurt you, unless I let us drink to much and laugh to much. It's CTCD, so everyone behave yourselves.
