Hey, Raven!  No problem - I'm just happy that we are now in St. Louis and away from those Giants!

Sorry about Hubby, Raven...gee, what a horrible thing to go through :(

 

I have MLB channels (Next month will be my last payment of 4 for this season) so I never miss a game - if I am not home, I record it! 

 

There is a T-shirt out there with "Crazy Cub Lady" on the back which I am going to order! :lol:

Sorry I am so slow... :wacko:

Hello Liz, for today, I am good!

Did not catch Raven either. It's not old age, just a language different than ours.

And how are you doing Liz?

Glad to hear that you are doing OK today, Gail!

 

Bad day for me today between laptop issues and grocery shopping for 2 hours this afternoon.  I could hardly walk to bring  the stuff in - I swear they pack the stuff for weight lifters!  Not supposed to be lifting more than 5 pounds :(

 

Thankfully tomorrow is massage day :P

Could have written this myself, no massages here though. Just five flights of stairs from the parking lot to go up to with grocery bags!

I hope that you are better sweet Liz today! Love xx

Don't know what has been worse today - more computer issues or the fibro :(

 

First 1/2 hour of massage is always painful but the carry-over from yesterday was not so good... 

 

How are things with you, Gail?  FH, busy in the garden?   Raven, hope you and your hubby are doing better :hug:

Sorry Raven, I never even read The Hobbit - my older son was into that, but those names meant nothing to me - thanks for the explanation! :)

 

Need to unpack my new NUWAVE convection oven - hope I can figure it out!  It will be my only oven, so I sure hope so! :lol:

LOL! Liz, I barely read The Hobbit - The most I knew about it was the cartoon I saw growing up. Then I met my husband and he introduced me to a whole new world. A world of wonder, magic, fantasy, sci-fi and comic books.

 

Good luck with your oven. :hug:

People say...

Fisherman, what are the symptoms of that hiatal hernia? You mean that it is on and off? I thought that it was what I had, but no.

Liz, you will like your oven! Does it have a ceramic plate? So so hard to clean, if so.

Raven, still a kid at heart. My ex used to also enjoy that world of magic. Comic books by the dozen and science fiction. I am also,as we all are, a kid,just in a different way.

I hate my tablet, pay cheep and you get cheep!

Kisses from Canada! Cheap?cheep?

say what?

Yes, I try to remain a kid at heart. I have just recently seen how innocent my children are when it comes to belief. I am always worried I am going to hurt them more than I already have with my actions due to this horrible drug. But I still try to be a kid at heart and let them know that they can always trust me no matter what. I don't know if any of that made sense because I am so very tired right now. Getting ready to go home to my wonderful family which I am happy about, but I am so very very tired and don't know why.

 

Until tomorrow>>>>

 

Raven

what hernia?

"Most small hiatal hernias cause no signs or symptoms. However, larger hiatal hernias can cause signs and symptoms such as:
⦁ Heartburn
⦁ Belching
⦁ Difficulty swallowing
⦁ Chest or abdominal pain
⦁ Feeling especially full after meals
⦁ Vomiting blood or passing black stools, which may indicate gastrointestinal bleeding

http://www.mayoclini...s/CON-20030640"
 
My hernia is very tiny and this is the first time it has ever flaired up. I had an upset stomach which I guess irritated the hernia. One of the key signs is that food can be difficult to swallow because the hernia is swollen and won't let food pass plus setting up usually greatly reduces the heartburn.

hernia flareups

 

Sorry you suffer from your hiatal hernia.  From others in my family who suffer from this, there is something which isn't mentioned and this is: they flair up and also feel as though something is in your upper stomach and pressure.  It's important to definitely stay away from any bulky and acid foods.  I'm sure Fishinghat you do eat properly.  Just make sure you don't have any carbonated drinks, even if its water.  My father, God Bless his soul, had this condition and was very good at determining what bothered him and what didn't.  You'll find your core!

 

Liz, you'll love your convection oven.  I use mine often (especially when I'm getting unexpected company).  Next time you go to the grocery store, YOU tell them how to pack your groceries and tell them to make very light bags...

 

Well work was late tonight and a busy afternoon shift.  Off for three days and hope to get up to the beach for the weekend. Weather willing...

Flare-ups??

Thanks for the info. I have that pressure under the lower ribs and have consulted many times for it. Always suspected hiatal hernia. But with the ultrasound and scan, they could not find this. Almost Impossible to see, they say.

So uncomfortable, on and off. When I stand, I barely feel it. I want to jump off the wall.

Raven, tired? With all that went on...no wonder.

And good morning!
