well. a day of sunshine has me feeling a bit better, even though i didn't go OUT in it. too icy in the a.m., then i was diverted by other stuff. Chris, you should make a Granny Square afghan. (crochet) making those squares is addictive, easy, and you can do as few or as many as you want...

Chris, just to make you feel better: it's MINUS 3* here. but the sun is shining!!!! i used to use Dr. Bronner's Peppermint. but my skin now goes YIKES :scared: at everything, so i'm using Cetaphil bar soap. happy day, y'all. :becky:

i couldn't have said it better. ice, 4" more snow. going down to zero tonight. i'm going back under my rock. sorry, just not in the mood to talk!

SUN, Chris??. surely, you jest!! :rant: :smow: i just can't face another day of this. i can't even muster up the energy to play Weather Bitch!!

Chris, no idea what to make of your pain. when it comes to pain, i always use the rule: if it's NEW, or if it's intense, or if it lasts for more than a day, you need to get some answers. preferably from a professional. if this goes on for a few more hours +/ or gets worse, call your gynie...

have an excellent day, Marnie!! ((((hugs))))

Mum's the word, Shar! Have a great time! Phylis

Chris. 6-7" here. then ice this morning. i can't take it anymore. none of it. no more. :hurt: way too much snow shoveling for the DHs. although my crazy one actually does our driveway and one of my neighbor's. my DH is in ridiculously great shape and looks at snow shoveling as just another way...

hiya. me, again. i had a few days like Trudy's. kind of "down" for no apparent reason. except the blasted weather, which is p/--/:; snow down on us again. we already have 2-3 and it's supposed to go on all day and night, with some of it turning into delightful freezing rain at some point. MAKE...

hiya. just a fast fly-by today. just got home. spent the last 6 hours at a doc's office with Hubby, who was having some skin cancer stuff excised. it takes FOREVER! they cut some out, then you have to wait about an hour until the stuff gets "read", then they keep doing that until they've got it...

yeah. i might actually make it through today without being Intensely Grumpy. sun makes a lot of difference, doesn't it? also, it's not 10 below zero now, like it was at this time yesterday. i think i'll go out and buy myself a frying pan today! you can tell how thrilling things have been around...

just lost my entire post, (WHY does that happen? WHY do i press "post quick reply" and it takes me to a screen telling me i'm not allowed to do that, or i haven't signed in, etc., etc.???? this happens nearly EVERY time i post in here, and if i don't remember to Ctrl C, my post is toast) and my...

just a quick fly-by. i am feeling uncommunicative. 4-7" going on now, plus an ice storm later. :faint2: I CAN'T TAKE ANY MORE!!!!! :rant: Chris, it's Mc KAND less. the township right next to mine is named McCandless. :becky: <<<--- phony smile.

Chris, just to make you feel better: it's -10* here.... what's a hydration IV? is that where the vitamins are coming from? Nancy, i assume it's freezing where you are, too. DOn'T go for a walk!! Shar, i'm totally with you on the language thing. i am usually not as pi&$ed off at spoken language...

BRRRR!!! can i just DELETE FRBRUARY??? it's TWO DEGREES here!! going down to -14* tonight. another day at home, no doubt. i can't think of a good reason for going out there!! Chris, glad the guys are getting in some supermarket time. i made my DH come with me for THE FIRST TIME a few weeks...

gleep. up since 3:47 and STILL i missed THIS!! http://www.wpxi.com/news/news/local/massive-fireball-over-pittsburgh-captured-nasa-cam/nkC4j/ damn. i would have LOVED to have see this!! of course, it probably would have freaked me out, since, apparently it was BIG in the sky, even though it...

here's meeeeee! i have NO good excuse for my absence, except that DH was home all day for three days in a row, and i kept getting sidestracked by DH things. i finally got out of the house yesterday and got a much-needed haircut. then today i finally got to the dentist. (it must be Dentist day!!)...

snow.... you can always tell when people aren't USED to snow. they write songs like THAT!! ^ click on the word and have some Bing Crosby, Rosemary Clooney for breakfast! we're getting some more of the blasted stuff now. 1-3" expected. we usually get the upper end on my street...

Hi, Trudy!! yay for the rain stopping. i am pretty depressed about the picture you posted of Victoria with the BLOSSOMING TREES!!!!! :scared: i WISH!!!!!! the sun is shining here, but it's 4 degrees outside. the high on Sunday will be 8. :faint2: i like your line about "does your mother know...

Chris, overworking is its own "reward." learn anything???? i hope so.it's odd. i read a book an AGE ago about someone who was absolutely ADDICTED to clean and expensive sheets. i can't remember the name of the book. i think it was one of those books that someone much more "intellectual" that i...
