Ok ya, I am. But I have also been trying to figure out where and when I could squeeze in a trip to Texas to hit the Water parks and meet up with Lu and Rhonda.. Probably others in TX too.

Brandy - are you high? You and I came up with the idea of bombarding LuluC in Texas next year when She was in from Australia!!!!!!!

Didn't know this idea had been extended to LBT/pjtp thread. I'm glad we didn't say this was gonna be at my house!!!

Adding: the date(s) will be given by She, right? Wasn't the whole point to get together when she was in the states? That was my original thought.

*encourages speculation* hehehe

Clearly, Fanny is enjoying listening to some classical music (probably Mozart).

PJTP: I just happened to see my first episode of "The Duggars" (The actual name of the show is "18 and counting") while hooking up a patient tonight. They seemed strangely normal.

While it is alien to me to have that many children, they seem to manage quite nicely. I must admit that I misjudged them.

That looks more like a Wagner face to me.

Anyhoo, on this big trip to TX.... the last two weeks of May are always booked for me and the first two weeks of June tend to be pretty busy too as it's the end of the school year for my kids.

Just throwing that out there...

yes - your correct; just thought throwing out dates would help since she indicated she was sorta flexible in her scheduling.

good luck at the dr g4e~!

Tell me when. Tell me where - I'll be there! :biggrin:

I read something about them in People a few years back. They did seem to have it managed, but they ask a lot of the older kids. Personally, I don't believe that the older kids should be automatically put in that role....but then again, they are a close, loving family (So it seems, and so I hope it stays!)

I just got back from the chiropractor. Not only did he work miracles he is gooood looking! :wink2:He is ordering me a head traction kit. He thinks that If I do all the right stuff it might heal on it's own because it was caught early enough! But I have to go to work. Have a great day.

I just HAVE to check in before I go to bed at night - you guys do all sorts of posting during the day and it takes a while to catch up the next day. To recap:

G4E - Yay! some definitive action with relief. (although a head traction kit sounds a little weird to me). As long as you can get some relief - that's the main thing!

Lulu - 100+ in June??? You're right, some of us are not used to that temp - EVER! However, I'd love to experience it...I think!

Heartfire - I love fresh herbs...but beware! Chives are very invasive and will take over quickly. And because they spread by seed as well as root, they will infiltrate everywhere. I know this from experience. Now I grow them in a containter kept on the deck and am vigilant in breaking off the seed heads.

Plain - Welcome back.

Beth - sending positive thoughts re the interview.

OK - now I have to do some more work but will check in before I leave.

PJTP - Why would someone who has just spent years of their life preparing to enter a profession, cheat on the national licensure exam?? YEARS of education lost, countless tens of thousands of dollars in education spent, no chance to ever sit the exam again, and now an entry on a criminal record........................and worst of all, I have to deal with the fallout of this person being caught...this will take months to deal with!

Why would anyone risk everything?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

      Iʻm roughly 6 weeks post-op this morning and have begun to feel like a normal human, with a normal human body again. I started introducing solid foods and pill forms of medications/supplements a couple of weeks ago and it's really amazing to eat meals with my family again, despite the fact that my portions are so much smaller than theirs. 
      I live on the island of Oʻahu and spend a lot of time in the water- for exercise, for play,  and for spiritual & mental health. The day I had my month out appointment with my surgeon, I packed all my gear in my truck, anticipating his permission to get back in the ocean. The minute I walked out of that hospital I drove straight to the shore and got in that water. Hallelujah! My appointment was at 10 am. I didn't get home until after 5 pm. 
      I'm down 31 pounds since the day of surgery and 47 since my pre-op diet began, with that typical week long stall occurring at three weeks. I'm really starting to see some changes lately- some of my clothing is too big, some fits again. The most drastic changes I notice however are in my face. I've also noticed my endurance and flexibility increasing. I was really starting to be held up physically, and I'm so grateful that I'm seeing that turn around in such short order. 
      My general disposition lately is hopeful and motivated. The only thing that bugs me on a daily basis still is the way those supplements make my house smell. So stink! But I just bought a smell proof bag online that other people use to put their pot in. My house doesn't stink anymore.

      Oh yeah, something I wanted to rant about, a billing dispute that cropped up 3 months ago.
      Surgery was in August of 2023. A bill shows up for over $7,000 in January. WTF? I asks myself. I know that I jumped through all of the insurance hoops and verified this and triple checked that, as did the surgeon's office. All was set, and I paid all of the known costs before surgery.
      A looong story short, is that an assistant surgeon that was in the process of accepting money from my insurance company touched me while I was under anesthesia. That is what the bill was for. But hey, guess what? Some federal legislation was enacted last year to help patients out when they cannot consent to being touched by someone out of their insurance network. These types of bills fall under something called, "surprise billing," and you don't have to put up with it.
      https://www.cms.gov/nosurprises
      I had to make a lot of phone calls to both the surgeon's office and the insurance company and explain my rights and what the maximum out of pocket costs were that I could be liable for. Also had to remind them that it isn't my place to be taking care of all of this and that I was going to escalate things if they could not play nice with one another.
      Quick ending is that I don't have to pay that $7,000+. Advocate, advocate, advocate for yourself no matter how long it takes and learn more about this law if you are ever hit with a surprise bill.
