Argon's Activities

grrr... I don't like it when this edit thing happens... it is worse than the typo I made!! lol

lol Way to go Mandy!! I love massage and it is soooo good for you, and yep naked is the only way to go!! I am in the business and I have to say I really don't care about a persons body size when doing treatments like massage. I honestly don't think I have ever given massage with the person wearing anything more than panties/briefs... for the shy. As for waxing same thing! I just do it. That is what I am paid to do! I have long been a die hard for waxing. There is nothing more worthwhile than having unwanted hair removed and knowing it isn't coming back for weeks!! I am 52 and I get it all removed!! I love it, I feel clean and that makes me really feel more confident and happy and on and on. It's a good thing! Spoil yourself! You deserve it big time!

I went for a pedicure, manicure, and facial yesterday and to discuss options for my lovely turkey wobble neck... I am not ready for a face lift but really need to do something to make me feel better about how I am looking. So I have started Mesotherapy. OUCH! it wasn't bad having the injections, not even as bad as the dentist, but after it was a bit painful mostly due to swelling. Tylenol and icepacks last night and today I am pretty good! cept for a small bruise. I go back in two weeks for another treatment, he figures three should help a lot. Please think positive thoughts for me! I don't want a turkey wobbler anymore!

A friend of mine had fat injected under her skin in order to take the wrinkles away. This is less invasive, much cheaper, and the recovery time is way shorter. You do have to get a good plastic surgeon, though, as he must sculpt the fat once it has been injected.

Uh! I just spent 16000 K to get rid of fat. Why would I have some injected into me? I think if I was at the state of PS, I would have the PS. Doddie

LOL that was my thought Doddie - keep the fat away from me - maybe clothespins would help???

I did something very disturbing last night: I opened my internet banking website, and added up all the obvious grocery expenses (ie: the ones labelled Sobey's and Superstore), then all the restaurant ones, and also the nearby convenience store for the last 30 days... in both Dan and my bank accounts. The total was approx. $900 !!!! :faint: Isn't that insane?! Quite a wake up call. (yeah, some of that is personal products, cleaning products, toilet paper, etc.... but, the majority is food!)

I'm very close to asking to be laid off from my job, so I was trying to figure out if we could afford it. If I can cut these food expenses down, it shouldn't be a problem. I'm going to go through all the food we have in the house right now, and figure out what it was bought for (ie: the beef broth is for stroganoff), and what I would need to make that meal... and try to get rid of all the food we have, by buying the least amount of additional groceries.

I'm not reeeally telling you guys this cause you should care... just wanting to get it said "out loud", for my own sake. This is my thread, and I'll say whatever stupid things I want

You can come and get out your stress out and vent anytime! I hate adding things up it depresses me but it looks like you are trying to do something for the better so good luck with that.

[Doddie63 6]

<p>You certainly can say anything you want but why do you say "stupid". I don't think it is stupid. By looking at your finances and seeing where the dollars are going is a great thing. Even if you don't quit your job, think of where that money would go if you saved and invested it. Thing of PS as you are now in the 150's, think of trips to warm places, etc. Go Gal Go. doddie</p>

Argon i really like reading your posts so ramble on as you are a inspiration to this site.

Thanks loriely

And yes, it really would be nice to be able to cut that number down, and save it for some PS!

lol Makes sense to me. I am starting to get bored with the recovery time needed for a full face life. :tired It has been 5 weeks now since the surgery and I still have scabs, some swelling, a some bruising around my neck. :phanvan I do look mighty smooth, though..... :bounce:

Oops, face Lift, not life!!!

Thank you ladies... you have reinforced my rambling fetish.

So, today I was offered a different position at work. Much better job... not so stressful (I hope), and the same pay. I don't plan to be here too long, but this will make the remainder of my stay much more enjoyable. (AND it will benefit me in getting the job I'm looking at in Vancouver)

Funny... I spent the last few days composing and sitting on my 'please lay me off" email. Probably good that I didn't send it.

I want a Body BUGGGGGG!!!! I check the exchange rate every few days to see how much lower the price is in US $$ !!! Do we think the CDN dollar is going to get higher and higher? Am I safe to wait it out even longer and get it even cheaper? Gotta make up for that inevitable duty charge!

Hey ! I got my stuff back from Revenue Canada! It seems keeping every single receipt paid off! I claimed surgery (including Optifast), the trip there, including rental car, gas, food (for me and companion), 1 car trip to Calgary from SK which was mostly gas and food, and one plane trip from Moncton to TO, which was the only the cost of the plane ticket. Some of my receipts were so faded they were barely legible. I'm so proud of myself!

Did you get a good refund?
