Chris, you have my permission to go back to bed and ignore the day. go ahead! what's stopping you? i hope things get better for you soon. two things to be thankful for, at least. a good post op doc appointment yesterday, and the fact you don't live in Boston. that warrant out on Phil is funny...

TROOOOOODEEEEEEE!!!! you're back!! :cheer2: welcome home, though i'm sure you would have liked to have at least another week on the beach! did you ever find that cute little sundress you would need a strapless bra for? Chris, sending prayers and good vibes eastward to you. i was happy to...

good luck at the appointment, Chris. "EASING back into regular activity." EASING!! wow, crappy weather all over the place, but not here! i'm listening to WTOP, a DC news station, and they had an ice storm that's making their already crazy traffic probs even CRAZIER! we're not expecting any...

Chris, bravo on raising polite and considerate kids. that local mall has instituted a "no teenagers in the mall on Friday and Saturday evenings without a parent or guardian over 21." really? what could POSSIBLY go wrong with THAT? and no doubt they'll just move it all over to a mall that DOESN'T...

yep. that is the same mall where a hundred or so teenagers decided to show up and have a riot a while ago, just for fun. this mall is the one i went to as a kid/teen. at this point in my life, where i live now, it's about 25 miles away. i guess after they ruin that mall, they'll branch out to...

Chris, i'm loving (not in a malicious way) your DH's baptism by fire into Chris' World. honestly, i think the only way for them to understand what it's like to be us is to have to BE us for a bit. hopefully he'll be wanting to do more and YOU will let him! :becky: is Cait better? does she have a...

hiya. well, no snow today, so that's all good. i'm wasting time, waiting for the window measuring guy to show up. between 9 and 11. you KNOW when he'll come. Chris, it does me good to see someone else pooped out from working so hard!! make the most of every day of your pampered princess...

hey, Chris! i was a Hippie!! what else could i be as a music major during the '60s? i hung out with jazz musicians as a rule. lots of fun! and other stuff.... the situation with Cait is such a worry. it's somewhat like having a child who is Type 1 diabetic. as you know, you can't choose to...

'morning! just starting the thread in Chris' absence. hopefully she's still asleep! i'll check in later to see what's new.:becky:

great page!

lovely!

wow!

CHRIS!!! SIX WEEKS before driving!!! did you have medical approval for that? driving is one of the WORST things you can do when recovering from abdominal surgery!!! ask the Doc. in the meantime, NO driving. STOP IT!!! :faint2: well. that outburst about did me in....:rofl: HERE is what the...

'morning. maybe a good one, since it isn't snowing. although my driveway is still a sheet of ice. Chris, you apparently got hit with BOTH. we never got more than about 5". the sun is shining now! yeah, i've been watching The Tudors from the beginning. i actually own the series. digi version...

hiya. this idiot weather doesn't know WHAT it's doing. rain. ice. snow. blah,blah, blah!! another day inside, doing "things." i've done a few loads of laundry, cleaned one bathroom and struggled through some Rosetta Stone Italian lessons. i think i'm too old to learn stuff like that anymore! one...

glerb. another day at home, watching it snow. and snow. it's been snowing since i woke up at 5:30, but it looks like we only have about 4" (on top of the 6 or so we accumulated over the last week.) DD has a Superbowl party to go to today, and i'm worried about the driving. but nothing a mom can...

Chris, i laughed out loud at your chocolate comment yesterday. so matter-of-fact! it was like, "oh, NOW i know what the prob was with my mood yesterday!" i always marvel at people who love chocolate and coffee so much. my DH is a chocoholic, though he abstains several times a year just to punish...

hiya. hopefully Chris is still sleeping! thought i'd just start the thread. i'll be back later to see what's going on.

Chris! drat! :rant: hope you get in to the dentist. just what you need. rats. nuts! and is there an alternative to Tindamax? geez. dunno who was on what side re: the babysitting, but the one who was on the side of NOT babysitting next week is right. now Phylis Mom will stop.... Shar, computer...

howdy. it's fah-REEZ-ING here! :violin: yeah, yeah. i know. enough about the barking WEATHER!! i think i'm detecting some actual SUN, so that might be good. i am really getting bogged down emotionally by all this grayness. i feel like hiding at home most days! Chris, glad to hear you're...
