5/27/06 "Il pochi il fiero i blabbermouths" We *will* sail again Part 5

[CajunGirl2]

Went to the dr. today. They are not too pleased with my eating ... said I should normally be taking in 1600 calories a day and right now that should be doubled!!! I still don't have my appetite back since the surgery. I lost 10 lbs. and gained 1/2 inch in height. I couldn't stand to lose 10 lbs. I look like those anorexic (sp???) people that you see on TV!

They did switch my narcotics in hopes that it would help with my appetite. I'm going to try to only use Extra Strength Tylenol during the day. We'll see!

I had to be fitted for a new brace. In the past week, I could tell it probably wasn't fitting properly any more. The dr. agreed and sent me down to have it adjusted. It was so bad that they're making a new one. I've lost all of the swelling from the surgery so now I'm swimming in it.

I got the ok to drive again. I also got orders to start getting 30 min. of aerobic exercise 4 times a week.

I can't top the bald eagle or bobcat stories but there was an 8-point buck in your yard Sat. morning.

Ang

THAT would be pretty cool, too....we see some mule deer every now and then, but they aren't all that interesting.

WOW......you better double up on the turkey and mashed potatoes! I'd gladly give you some of my extra weight, if it were possible. Great news about being able to drive and work out....just take it slow and easy! We want you in one piece for the cruise.

 

[TiggerInNY]

HELP!!! I need some technical help. I am not receiving any e-mail notifications when there's a new post. What do I do? I'm pretty sure it's the security code, right?

Thanks...

[kikipug]

KikiKaren, Jim - are we still on for dinner on December 4th?

Maria-

We will probably be going to MK & MGM that day... we've discovered that its our only day to go before the blackout dates on our seasonal AP's... I want to see the parks all decked out for Christmas!! Let us know what happens... if dinner doesn't work out, maybe we can meet up with you somewhere...

 

[WDWLVR]

Okay....HELP! Maybe the guys can help with this one.....we have a client who always gets us a gift for Christmas. We help him sell a LOT of his art work, making him rather wealthy. I have always given him something in return, which now I realize was probably bad form, since his gift was a "thank you"....but anyway, two years ago he didn't care for the gift I gave him, and last year I got him a Swarovski ornament only to have him tell me he's Jewish...(who knew?).....SOOOO....what should I get him this year??

A bottle of Banfi?

 

[WDWLVR]

Hi all - just got back from Harry Potter. Good movie!

 

[tinksdad]

A bottle of Banfi?

Nice call on that one! Who wouldn't like a bottle of Banfi??

Ok, maybe it's the pain killers talking, but Angie, you're freaking me out. How did you know there was an 8 point buck in my yard?

1600 calories? I had that with just dinner the other night!!!

Glad they are getting things straightened around for you (seriously, no pun intended!)

Take care of yourself. We need you good and healthy for the cruise. I've cruised with a lot of these people before....they keep ya hoppin!

 

[ohiominnie]

Hi all - just got back from Harry Potter. Good movie!

ITA!!!!

In 4 months time I've gone from being one of the "harry potter is evil" people to saying that I loved this last movie!

 

[ohiominnie]

Ok, I should go. I'm being a smart-&#^. The car they told me they were fixing TODAY didn't get fixed and now I have to pick it up tomorrow after "the glue dries." Yes, in Ohio, they GLUE your parts back on! Then, rehearsal will be extended an hour tomorrow....so that's THREE and a HALF hours! Plus Mike is sick....really sick. His throat is awful. His uvula actually hangs down so far it rests on his tongue....NASTY! His strep test was negative. I told him maybe he had diptheria and we should get some sled dogs to bring him something. He didn't think that was funny. He just demanded home made chicken noodle soup, jello, and sherbert.

 

[ohiominnie]

and I missed winning an ebay auction. Totally forgot about it while I watched a stupid movie. I missed it by 10 minutes and it went for LESS than I would have bid.

 

[justmestace]

A bottle of Banfi?

Now why didn't I think of that?? Duh. I've been looking at some silver monogrammed wine corks from Red Envelope....but the Banfi would be cheaper. And EVERYONE likes Banfi.

They weld cars in Michigan!!

Gotta go draw straws with Jay. Prison Break is on in 5 minutes.....and someone has to pick Jordan up in 5 minutes.

Hi all!

Just checking in...Angie, glad to know you're doing well...echoing everyone - take it easy starting back to your routine...

Kids are off for the entire week - finally got around to watching Star Wars III - we got it right away off netflix - but, just hadn't had time to watch it...now, the kids and I are having a Star Wars marathon we've watched 4 & 5. Revenge of the Jedi will have to wait until tomorrow. Then they want to go back and watch 1 & 2. The original trilogy is still by far my favorite of them all...

As much as I'd like to see HP - I think we'll pass until it hits DVD - the movies don't seem as intense for the kids (especially Maggie) on the small screen. I was a bit concerned with SW III but, she was fine...

Kids want to see a movie tomorrow - any thoughts on either Dreamer or Chicken Little?

 

[tinksdad]

That would be a no-brainer around here!! Bye Kevin.......

 

[justmestace]

That would be a no-brainer around here!! Bye Kevin.......

And it was "Bye Jay"....for once, I drew the long straw! Gotta see those cute brothers. It seems a little sick to sit and wish that a bunch of cons would break out of prison. And maybe even worse to think they're hot.

 

[justmestace]

Hey Kevin....you like my new little friend here??

Darn...missed him...green light is off.
