with everything else I have going on with my body and health , did I NEED a new UTI? Just Shoot Me! lol

glad you got a good result on the EKG!

BIG HUGE (((HUGS ))) to you and your family. Take care and we'll see ya on the threads when you are ready.

hooray on the arrival of your washer and dryer! I was stunned about the guy saying you'd be lucky to get 7-8 years out of them.
That seems short but we both know today they do not build things to last.

your FB sales were awesome! We also try to hit that store when we make the rounds on Saturdays.
I am still pissed about the way appliances die, this microwave is not even that old for goodness sakes.
Couldn't be bothered trying to search my records to see when we bought it. DH suggested we hit WM
on Saturday for a new one but I discovered the same size and model of Panasonic for $299.00 on amazon.
We'll live with the cost. lol.

thanks for whining along with me. Some days I just lose it emotionally because I have no answers about this darn plugged ear yet.

boy, I sure hear ya about limiting the errands you can run as knee pain is the boss! If anyone had suggested I'd be an entire month with this darn issue ( vertigo? ) and then an ear infection I would not have believed it. I can only HOPE these oral antibiotics knock out whatever is left of the infection. Plus I'm taking the pills for dizziness 3 x a day. I was trying to NOT use them but the GP assured me they are not an additive med, so they have sure helped.

I think Sebastian is way beyond his years to be able to actually speak about divorce with his Mom and Dad, many kids keep it all locked up inside.

despite their marriage breakdown your DD and her ex are doing everything right for Sebastian! Role models if there ever were any.

This nausea and dizziness just doesn't want to leave AND it got worse as my left ear became blocked.
Dr. will flush out the blockage on Monday.

you said it about splurging when we can. DH's sis is next to him in age and he adores her and i ask myself how many more birthdays will we get the chance to show her the love? Medically she's been through the ringer yet still manages to smile every day! We all had so much fun!! Worth it for sure. This place makes real authentic Italian dishes.

I found myself reliving your DD's horrible scare! It CAN happen just that fast! Kids get excited and run out onto a street.
Obviously Sebastian knows to check both ways, the fact that he was saying sorry to his Mom broke my heart! (((hugs )))

ya know I was so ticked off that they would send old stock on those expensive crackers. Glad that I phoned to complain...lol.

lol!! On my one hour early outing today. Also because I am faithfully doing I.F. with this weight loss I couldn't even sit at a Tim's to kill the hour.
Too tempting to eat or drink.
Even worse was at 8:20 when I finished up at GT, the 680 traffic report said the 401 express lanes were closed from the spot I would have had to
enter and ended at the exit I would have gotten off! The collectors were down to 2 lanes from a secondary collision. That left Kingston Rd all the
way home! I got back home at 9:30...ha ha Quite the morning.

oh!! 3 days in the fresh air and the Countryside! What a beautiful way to share Thanksgiving with all the kids!!

Having company come during your recovery to either lift your spirits ( like your neighbour cheering you on! ) or when relatives arrive with food.
Nice of your DH to pay for the Fish & chips! I was so satiated after that breakfast today, more of a brunch though. I JUST now ate my fruit for the
day, think I'm done for the night. Total daily calories were under but I won't stuff myself for the sake of squeezing in more calories.
You earned a good rest after all that sitting outside, and take a pain pill if you need it. I won't tell.....ha ha

Nice!!!

does this mean your knee surgery is set for the 28th of August? Congrats!!

nice savings at SDM! Isn't it crazy how much large boxes of cereal are?! You're like me, I never would pay over $6.00 for a box. Nice you had that coupon for it.

just so you know I will sure be thinking about you once you do get the knee replacement date set! Fingers crossed it will be soon.

about your gazebo erection......much congrats on getting it set up, but yes as we age things do get done slower. Ya know some people have asked us why our " well over 30 yr. old DS still lives at home " and even though it is none of their damn business, we are very grateful he IS here! For the last few years the renos and/or heavy slogging work would not get done alone by DH. Often it's a 2 man job and I'm no longer " the man I used to be" lol. Hope you enjoy your backyard time in your gazebo!

yes, sadly our backyards are all attached! There is NO privacy at all so curtains blocking neighbours eyes is a must....lol.
The one good thing about having all the backyard fences shared is there is NO access for cars or people walking by to get in.
The houses across the street from us, well their backyards face the walking trails! So anyone strolling on those paths have
the perfect cover to hop a backyard fence and break in! I have always shuddered at that access.

You too

ha ha !! I snagged the last box of Samosa's at Wmart ( the deli section ) . They only bake up so many of these each day so I was watching my cart like a hawk thinking someone might grab it from my buggy. So nice that you were able to replace that area rug with a great sale.

oooh, yeah I still recall whenever I had a fall while delivering mail, I thought I was fine and then the next day? OWIE!! I'm going to pm you in a second.

Yes you are right he told me this morning his tailbone area is sore from the fall.All it takes is a second our outcomes in life.So glad lizzie,s daughter and her boyfriend are okay.

so relieved that your DH's fall after clearing the snow away was minimal. They say the pain never sets in until the day after so check on him tomorrow.
What a scary situation for lizzie ( DD car accident ) and sassy ( smashing face ) . In a second life switches up!

ha ha !! Didn't you lol at my bragging about my birthday? I got so many cards this year it was shameful AND 2 of my sisters sang Happy Birthday to
me over the phone.

if you could see the condition of our garage you'd scream! When I was physically stronger I always tidied it and kept it under a certain level of chaos, but
it has exploded into I have no idea what anymore! lol. Just like those liquidation sales " Everything Must Go! "

All back from my procedure! It went very well. I just have to wait and see how bad the pain will be after the freezing comes out. Dr. said it is similar to
the pain you get from a bruise? We'll see if he is lying. ha ha After that pain is gone I hope to get the pain free window!
