A DISmeet here..a DISmeet there..Our August Southern Tour- Final Posts - #544!

home from the clinic.....Megan complained a bit last night of her ear hurting...a while after she got up said it really hurt....she has a double ear infection so got antibiotics for 10 days...picked up lunch since we are out and she's playing for a bit, guess she's feeling better and has some energy :goodvibes
 
NOSTALGIA: Sorry, if you have posted your name I don't remember. Anywhoo, I know a couple of people have sent previously worn outfits to BG families -- You just have the moderator contact the family and ask them if it's OK first. And for something like a stuffed animal as long as it's clean and free of odors it may be sendable -- ask one of the mods first though.

My name is Meredith! :wave2: I don't have much in the way of old clothes, but I definitely have toys, and LOTS of gently used stuffed animals. I'm a pro at the arcade "claw" game, so I have a lot of stuffed animals I don't really do anything with. :flower3: Just got accepted into the Big Give boards, I'll have to check that out shortly!

YIKES! :worried: Well that explains why she felt so sick! :scared: Glad to hear she's feeling better, hope the antibiotics work their magic pixiedust: with no nasty side effects!

I saw this first on Judy's thread, so sent good wishes there also. I hope Megan feels better very soon! Did they give her any ear drops for pain? Auralgan doesn't help an infection, but it is a prescription ear drop for pain.

My oldest has those claw games mastered too. He once cleaned out a machine, as all these kids started giving him quarters to win them one too. You have a cool skill! How are you with the coin in water games at restaurants? He has them mastered too.

Not sure what the coin in the water game is?? :confused3 Not sure if we have it around here. I'm also very good at the arcade game where you stop the light on the jackpot. I've had kids beg me to win that for them. :rotfl: Thank you though, I'd like to think it's a skill. :lmao: I enjoy playing it, but don't have much use for the actual stuffed animal, so I'd love to send it to someone who would!

That stinks... it took my daughter two rounds of antibiotics to clear up her ear infection and that was right before our trip. :sad1:

Well if we ever meet IRL I will give your son some coins too. My daughter wastes too much money thinking she is going to win.:rotfl:

Ugh! At least with the abs she'll hopefully feel good soonest :) I was on 14 days of abs before my surgery and am now on another 7 days. I never finished the 14 days b/c I never remembered to take them!!! I am leaving them out on the counter this time. I hate having clutter around but I really must be more diligent.

:wave2:Hi Meredith! I am terrible with remembering names so in the future if I forget please don't hate me. If you won all your stuffed animals via games and just have them sitting around they would be fine to send. I have a little stash of things myself that I include with BG items.

Having a hard time keeping up this summer. Things were crazy for the first half with the loss of my father and then an extened power outage due to a storm. It seems things have calmed a little.....by calm I mean signing up dd17 for college classes and drivers ed and dd8 starting girl scout camp next week. At least i am home and feel more rested.

I hope to keep up more!

:wave2: Lisa! Hope Megan is feeling better today and the antibiotics take care of those ear infections quickly!!! pixiedust:

In the past I've sent stuffed animals to GKTW too, they hand them out to the kids at check-in and at the Xmas parties, happy you got accepted to the BG!

they will, she's never had issues with ABs before!

we've never had to do extra rounds, sure she'll be better this morning! hope your DD didn't have any problems with her ears during the trip!

you are a bad girl, make sure you take all of them this time Andrea, you don't want to get an infection at your site!

Hi Nicole, so sorry for the loss of your dad :hug:
hope things will mellow out for you .... you are still planning on coming next month to Charlotte right?!
get rested up and take a few days to yourself!

:wave2: Lisa! Hope Megan is feeling better today and the antibiotics take care of those ear infections quickly!!! pixiedust:

Hi Marv, hopefully she will be too! she's still sleeping!
hope all is good for you and the family!



hope my girl is feeling better and has somemore energy today!!!
we need to get out of the house and get some groceries and sunshine today!

Don't worry if you forget my name, I completely understand. I also appreciate that you referred to me as "Nostalgia" before and not "Addict" or "Addicted". :rotfl: Usually I use the screenname nostalgic but it was taken here. Anyway, yes, it sounds like I have some items I will be able to send! :cool1: I have a busy next two days (I realize that makes no sense as I'm on the DIS right now...) but I plan on looking into the BG in a couple of days. I want to dedicate my full attention towards it! Get well soon from your oral surgery, those are no fun :sad2:

Glad to hear Megan seems a bit better and she has good experiences with antibiotics. :cool1:
 
Megan is SOOOOOO much better...last night she was FULL of energy :hyper:
so we are heading out today to burn some off!

Going to visit NW Trek, a wild animal park! hope to be on the road about 930.


Meredith - there aren't any BG sign-ups right now, but you will get an email when the next one starts...feel free though to ask any questions of the moderators about things you might want to donate!



and want to say

:bday: to Andrea! have a wonderful day!!!!!!
 
Glad to hear that Megan is feeling better. :yay::yay::yay:

thanks Kathy, so am I!!!

Finally back on.... trying to catch up with all my threads. It's not an easy task!!!

Hi stranger...you haven't missed much ...mostly just some chit chat here!

Glad the antibiotics seem to be helping Megan get back to her old self. :cool1:
The trek sounds too cool, a love anything to do with wildlife! Can't wait to see pictures!

Thanks for the information about the BG. Hopefully I will stop on over there today to ask the moderators a couple questions.

:blush: I really hate to ask for prayer requests, since I feel like my issues have nothing on most of the families here, but... I went for an EP study on my heart, a monitor had picked up on an irregular rhythm that was very simple to fix, but it turned out that the reading was incorrect, so I came out of the heart procedure with nothing to show for it except another not so good diagnosis of another health issue for me that is not really "fixable". It's nothing life-threatening of course, but I now have to go on more medications, because we basically found out my heart drastically overreacts to adrenaline, which explains my frequent panic attacks and my inability to get out of them... I just need some P&PD that for once a medication can help me out without too many side effects for once pixiedust:pixiedust: I also need prayers that my clot doesn't reopen, I bled out yesterday in post-op, I need to stay out of the hospital...

I am so sorry to hijack your thread there. :blush::blush: I keep all the people on the DIS in my prayers, and I feel like my troubles are so small...
 
Meredith, sorry your didn't get the answers you were hoping for from your tests...hope the new meds will help make you feel better :goodvibes




not too much going on here this weekend, after having three thunderstorms roll through yesterday, today we have fog :confused3 crazy weather!

have a bunch of little things to get together for our trip, getting so excited to see all our friends!
need to get my lists made so I don't forget stuff and check supplies.

hope everyone has a fun and happy weekend!!!

Thank you! :blush::blush::blush: So sorry to hijack your thread, funny what a little pain and some medication can do to your brain and reasoning... :rolleyes1 I guess there's a reason they tell you not to make major decisions for a few days. :lmao:

I hope you have a great weekend, your trip is getting close! :hyper:
 
Good Morning!

can't believe our trip is almost here :banana: need to start packing the little things next week :thumbsup2 so excited to see all my DIS friends :goodvibes
