Happy Birthday, Anthony!! Enjoy some time away from the forum!

(((((LH))))) :(:cry: I am so sorry for your loss!! I lost my father earlier this year. Even when expected, we are never really ready. I am sorry you are dealing with this right now. Know there are hearts sending prayers of support from my little corner of the world. :hug:

I bake chocolate chip cookies in a mini muffin pan and as soon as I take them out of the oven, I push a Reese's Peanut Butter Cup into the middle of each cookie. Yum! Sometimes I put brownie dough in the mini muffin pan and then push a Rollo into the middle. Both are the best when still hot...

In pain. The pain meds knock me out but as long as I keep taking them, the pain is manageable. I have to keep my wrist elevated for 2 weeks! But, there is a 95% success rate. Just going to sleep. For Christmas this year I get a divorce, new last name and a painful wrist. Woo hoo. Bring on 2013...

Surgery on my wrist tomorrow. Feeling anxious to the point of nausea. Just need to get it over and start moving on. :cry:

Feel exhausted. Court date on Friday - I will be divorced. I just can't wrap my head around it. Hand surgery next week. Trying to get things organized so I can be one-handed for at least 2 weeks. No energy for anything. :(

Feel like hell. Life is damn sucky.

Trying to pretend Christmas isn't happening. I get divorced next week (after 25 years of marriage - his choice) and have hand surgery the week after that. This is the first Christmas without my father so now both parents are gone. My family is all either 1500 or 3000 miles away and just don't...

Just don't give a s*** about anything. Divorce next week, daily lawyer emails, hand surgery the next week. Can't stand all the happy people these days. :tdown:

My boy (16 months and 76 pounds) loves to grab something he knows he isn't supposed to have, looks right at me, turns and runs off. The more excited I am about him having it, the more he loves it. He also will go to sleep with his bone in his mouth. He looks like a baby with a pacifier.

monster... I couldn't decide whether to laugh or be mad. Mostly I was laughing but the cleaning was no fun. Sure wish I had had a video camera... Well, maybe not. :wtf:

Hang in there. As it has been said before, it will end. The noise gets on my nerves, too. Because I trusted my contractor, I could leave the house and just get some quiet. Good luck!!

I spent a year doing renovations on our house... every time we'd start on a new area, we'd discover some new "fix" the previous owner had done and we'd end up doing twice the expected work. If we hadn't have had a contractor with a great sense of humor and ethics, I wouldn't have survived. But...

My crazy dog has his own treadmill. He actually loves to run on it and it turns out to be about the best investment I have ever made. Expensive but it means I can wear him out. Well, he sometimes refuses to take care of business when we are outside. Then when he is running, he decides that then...

There were a few I found disturbing. I try to ignore them and understand that the person has a reason for whatever they choose.

I am going to try vitamin D this winter and see if it helps. I can pretty much guarantee I will be cranky by the end of January and all of February. I am NOT thrilled at it getting dark so early in the day. We still have 7 weeks before the days begin to get longer. Argh! I can feel myself...

I watched a friend's youngest 2 and we went out in the yard/driveway with chalk. Before long, they were "painting" my face and hair with the chalk. We even took pictures to prove it. I went home covering in sidewalk chalk from head to toe. It was pretty funny and the kids loved it. When their...

Things are rapidly returning to normal up here in Massachusetts. I am so relieved my nephew and family were fine in VA. Listening to the sound of the wind going through the trees behind my house and the sound of trees breaking (over the roar of the wind) was unnerving. But somehow we were spared...

Titanic!?! :eek::poop::wtf: :yuck: KP... now there is another picture for my head...

I am north and west of Boston and the wind is howling. We still have power here but there are several more hours of wind and rain ahead. The local news is just covering Sandy. Those on the coast are really getting hammered. Prayers for those to our south who are getting the brunt of the storm...

"Fatbergs"???? Didn't need that image in my head just before going to bed... :eek:

Today was beautiful - nice and warm!! Big weather on its way. Hurricane Sandy is heading this way the first part of next week. We are being warned to prepare for the possibility of extended power outages from a sustained wind/rain storm. :eek:

Good luck tomorrow and prayers for a successful surgery and quick healing. :hug:

Feeling blessed and even content. Got a nasty cold - wish people who are ill wouldn't bring it into the church so the rest of us can get it. Oh well. A day for relaxing and pumping fluids. :)

:hug: NH. Hope you are feeling OK and are getting some rest. I am glad the doctor is keeping you over night - definitely better to be safe!! I am also glad your doctor is determined to take care of you! He sounds like a keeper.
