Oiy, our heads can play games with us, can't they???
DO go see someone about your depression, Cabbie....I'm pretty sure a nurse-practitioner will refer you for help...take care, Sweetie.

On monday I'm going to the office here that deals with the care connect stuff. I will ask them what I can do and if they can refer me to anyone and update my info with them.
Good Evening Kids, Sitting down here drinking my Forty Creek after pounding back some strong pain killers. I am just recovering from a very aching accident at the church where the family was having a mass for my late Father-in-Law.... Not sure what it's called but the praying bench that you put down slowly to kneel and pray fell down and hit my leg, it took everything I had NOT to swear in church. My leg is just starting to stop aching from that.
@Lynn49 very good news about your cousin and family, that is wonderful news, I praise our Lord Jesus for answering everyone's prayers, and Jesus I ask you to continue to look after this family, and hold them close, Thank you Jesus....
@22hicks I am very sorry for your loss, and 2 of them in one week, I also ask the Lord Jesus to watch over and comfort you... God Bless YOU!!
@avoncallingu I hope YOU are not suffering too much from your migraines still, but don't know if you tried this yet, but lavender rubbed on your temples, and forehead, and the bottom of your neck may help your pain... I hope YOU begin to feel better soon... God Bless YOU also....

How sad that there are so many here in one kind of a pain or another. :(
There's nothing I can say that hasn't been said already.
I do pray that all of you feel better soon, that the Lord smiles down on you, and helps make your life a little more enjoyable.
Be strong, and look after yourselves. :sweet:

LOL, RC - at least you haven't lost your sense of humour!
Wishing you better hours and days ahead; keeping you in my prayers.
cabbie - sorry you are having bumps along the road. Just take things easy as you finish up your notice at work.
Are there not mediclinics in your city? Or maybe they are called something different - walk-in clinics? There you should be able to see a doctor right away.
Plus if you find yourself in dire need, don't hesitate to go to emergency.
Wishing all the best for you.
[QUOTE=Lynn49;6764949]Some of you may recall that I had asked for prayers for my cousin, Morgan, prior to, and subesquently having his heart replacement...here is an article from the local Kingston newspaper, reporting on his post-surgery progress...What blessed news for our whole family!!!

That's-fantastic!-Wonderful-news-all-around!
I love that @Redneck Charger . :lol: I bet that kneeling bench in church hurt like the dickens. I'm a little surprised that a yelp didn't escape your lips. Take care hon.
Oh, maybe tomorrow.
I just reread my previous post, boy was it ever lame. Sorry.
@cabmonk, I'm so sorry you're going through all that. It's a shame that you had to give notice, but you do what you have to. @Lynn49 's suggestion about nurse practitioners is a good one. You need to get some medical support, in all the areas you need it. Keep your chin up, and praying you find some relief soon. :hug:
@Natalka , I hope your cold has finally left you. You've suffered with it for long enough.
@avoncallingu - I hope you've read @Lynn49 and my posts. You just need to check out for awhile, and look after #1. Once you're recharged, maybe you'll start to feel better, the pain'll let up, and you can tackle all that lies ahead.
@Darth Penguin - you also have been through so much. I see you have no plans to move in the foreseeable future. You seem to be holding up pretty well, at least your putting your positive face forward. Keep strong, and tackle one day at a time.
@danger_dan - after the week you've had, esp. the way things started on Monday, you deserve to drink yourself silly, sleep, sleep, and recoup, so you can face next week. Maybe it's time to start planning a vacation, or a serious job search for a company who will appreciate all your hard work.
@Newfiescreech - I sure hope it's stopped snowing out there. Personally, I don't know if I could stand such long, cold winters. You are a hardy soul. :top:
And you @Lynn49 - pushing forward I see, good for you. I know, this weather is nuts. No wonder so many people are getting sick. We got snow last night, then freezing rain, and now rain all day. The temp's going up to +12 on Sunday, after - temps the past few days. Go figure.
And what about you @walkonby ? Busy in the kitchen I bet. I hope you're doing fine. I miss your daily posts.
wow, hicks, you are SO awesome for keeping up with everyone! You are a STAR! :)
The cough I had lasted only a few days, thank goodness, my throat was really sore. What is hanging around is not really a full-blown cold, more like the sniffles, but I wish it would all disappear!
Same feeling for everyone - that all our owies would just disappear!
Some times I pray that just for ONE day/night - could I be 'normal', and not feel aches and pains in my legs, arms, back... just to remember how wonderful that feels, instead of going on a crying jag/pity party - which I did about an hour ago.
I'm back to being okay now, though! Just had to get it out.

Thanks @22hicks , hope you have a good weekend. :)
Oh, goodness, @22hicks , all those personal messages, how wonderful of you to think of each and every one of us!
Thank you.
I don't know how this happened, but it seems that @Natalka has passed me her cold.
Or, perhaps it was our Grandson who was here for the weekend with his cold...perhaps. Both our DD and I came down with colds yesterday in full glory, so dinner at their home has been cancelled for today, dang it all, and I was so looking forward to spending time with them. But who needs to exchange cold germs. I thought I was SO careful when our GS was here, but I guess I goofed somewhere along the way.
Oh my dear @Newfiescreech !!! I feel so horrible for you having to endure another attack of winter!! Oh, I would honestly hide in my room until it disappeared...you poor kids out there. I hope it disappears as quickly as it arrived and that next week all that white crap will just be a distant memory. Stupid schizophrenic spring. Someone aught to put it on medication for heaven's sake!
I was just sitting here just staring at the screen doing nothing, so I'd better go somewhere else and do nothing more comfortably. DH is babysitting our GS for a couple of hours so that our DD and her DH can put up all her certificates and qualifications in her office and get this....she wants plants!! That girl is growing up.....
Everyone, have a wonderful weekend in spite of the weather, ouchies, and errands that must be run...take care, leave time for some rest and rejuvenation.

well....I am almost out of the loop around here! My own fault, I get doing something and tell myself I shall sit down later and catch up, but somehow I just recline and nap instead!
Today for instance I wanted to make up something to use up the large bag of frozen basa fillets but I did not want fried fish, so I opted for an experimental " casserole ".
Just took it out of the oven now and it looks promising.....the very top has a crust made using 2 boxes of that Red Lobster biscuit mix....the fillets are surrounded with plenty of chopped carrots, onions, potatoes, celery, some shrimp I had taking up freezer space and the whole thing is swimming in a mixture of cream of mushroom soup, half and half cream, a jar of white pasta sauce and a can of diced tomatoes....Lord! what didn't I toss in there? Added some other dried spices too, lots of black pepper.....
I am hoping the family will reach for that for both lunch and dinner today!
Hoping the members on here still suffering with pain can catch a break soon. Enjoy the weekend all!!
@walkonby It's always nice to experiment in the kitchen and if it doesn't turn out good, eat it anyway because it wont kill you lol. One day I tried to make my mom lemon chicken and she said it was the worst thing she ever ate. Well I did tell her to be honest and say what she thought of it but geez lol. It actually just tasted like a mouthful of lemons but I was pretty young and learning still. ;)
Sorry you caught that cold @Lynn49 . I hope you feel better in the morning.

Oh so very true @22hicks ... But in time we will all heal again... just been a very long road... But I will work on those laugh lines...
And thank you very much for that flash.... Made my evening....
Thanks sooo much Lynn .. hope and pray my sweet friend that you feels better soon.. get plenty rest and have hot toddy sweat flu out lol Thanks for thinking about old Newfie gal .. ohhhh even if weather is stormy.. there's always something do .. either paperwork for my job or organizing things for our next fundraiser with fire department or firettes.. no time to relax for sure around here .. Thanks again and please take extra care yourself sweetie
Cabmonk, first to you- I am so very sorry that you are in so much pain! But I worry about your emotional state. I would advise you to plunk yourself down in someone's reception room and just keep telling them you need help NOW. Be polite and if possible, show them your posts here. Your friends and family are not able to physically be with you and you need some assistance!!!
I have to say that since the doctor "tweaked" my meds, that my foot and head pain have not been too bad.
I took my time today loading up my car with 3 bins of Christmas stuff that my one brother can store in his storage room and 3 suits and various shirts that my other brother's friend might be able to use.
I had a lovely supper and chat with my friend in Cambridge and then kept coming to Kitchener to spend the rest of the evening with my other brother and family.
My one nephew made us all banana bread and we shared a cup if tea and watched - wrestling(argh!) This is for you Cabbie, - my nephew was lucky enough to meet and get a selfie with Rick Rood a few weeks ago.
Tomorrow is church to see my older nephew's presentation about his trip to Colombia. He has brought a present in the form of a little wooden engraved cross with the Lord's Prayer in Spanish (or is it Portuguese?)
Then out to lunch to celebrate his birthday which happened while he was away. Then off to see another potential apartment. Then scoop up the doggie from my friend's house and back home.
So a nice family day.
Redneck Charger- prayers for you as you navigate that long and winding road back to health!
Nat and Lynn sorry you have the sneezles!
Newfoundlandscreech- I would definitely be "Screaching!" If I were you. I hope you have enough provisions!
Walks, you concoction sounded spectacular!
Hicks, thanks for all the good advice and wishes- you and Lynn are in colusion!
Good Boy- Welcome aboard!
Dededi- I always love your graphics!
Dan, I wish I had a company I could offer you a job for.
If I have forgotten anyone, please blame it on senior issues and tiredness.
Must catch some zzz' s.
Good night my friends!
Good night all. :wave:

And now, good morning.
Attachment 328723
Okay, I'm much more awake than I was a few hours ago!
Lynn, sorry you have a cold; hope it isn't too bad, and that you feel better soon.
Mine really isn't a full-blown cold, though.
Cut up ribs for supper, made a spice combo, gave them a good massage and put them in the fridge to marinate. Roasting dry baby back ribs tonight - have never done them this way, with this recipe, so should be interesting to see how they turn out.
Cleaned up 1/2 my spices cabinet, organized them and saw what I have enough of and what's needed/missing.
Son is coming for supper - look forward to hearing how his week has gone, getting my fill of cuddles and love from him - and to him! We message during the week, but I miss seeing him in person!
Is anyone else on April the giraffe watch? Apparently she was having contractions yesterday, so might be very close...
They weren't quite sure when she got pregnant, so don't have a def. delivery date.
