Good Afternoon MS,

Hope you are feeling a lot better! How long is your recovery period?

Hugs to you and have a good day!

Zimmy

Good to see you back MStar! :) I hope your recovery is going well. :rrose:

Zimmy, just keep up the good fight on the classes...you'll get there!

Scoote and I headed to the beach for some shell-hunting and a walk, so dinner was Taco Bell. Not the healthiest thing for me, but it was really good to have some time without the kids, just walking on the beach. Zillions of shells too...we literally ran out of daylight and didn't want to leave. :beachkids:

Called the moving company today to arrange my furniture delivery...hopefully they'll get it here close to closing day so we aren't sitting in an empty house too long. :giggle:

Hugs to all. :gimmehug:

I am popping to say goodnight!!

I am going to be studying like a fool for the next 48 hours. Lisa had to take the baby back to the hospital tonight, his heart rate was over 200. As of right now, the dr's don't know what is causing this and we aren't sure when he is going to be coming home.

Hugs to all,

Zimmy

Yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah.. furniture delivery... grins.. sooooooooooooooooooooooo.. when EXACTLY is the closing on the house??

I miss those days.. long walks on the beach.. after work.. if I was not dog tired that is.. I would love to be closer to the coastline again...

Hugs to Jo.. ^5 scoote.. and waves to the kids...

Oh my goodness! What to choose for breakfast...hmmm...some eggs...poached...and half a bagel with cream cheese...since it is a NY bagel yummy....and one Mr. Prickly:batman: to go with breakfast...yes yes...what a nice way to start the day! :cheer:

Hi to Jo, Zimmy, Scoote, Durrr, Matthew and I am sure I missed a lot of others :pendulum:so sorry....I'm on drugs lol...well at least it seems like a good excuse :)


Happy Tuesday!

Good afternoon/evening everyone! I thought I would make some dinner for us....and I am still not up to full cookering...but I do have some awesome spaghetti sauce left over in the freezer...so how about some pasta with a meat sauce, a Cesar salad and Italian bread? I bet my Guy will like that *smile*

As for me...on the mend slowly slowly...this whole thing just happened out of the blue. I am missing a trip I was planning since last March, and time with Jake, and lost my job. Everything happens for a reason and I need to keep positive about things and things WILL work out.

Well my ride to the store is here so I should run....talk to you later!

Enjoy!

good evening kitcheneers......just popping in to see how everyone is doing....after my trip to dr yesterday i,too,need blood work done so my sweetie and i are doing it together in the morning....poor thing has such a fear of needles..hopefully she will be ok....i am not fond of them but i can handle it..i go next week for MRI and mammogram--been a couple yrs since ive been sooooooo....and as much as i dislike drs im glad JO made me go...i got some muscle relaxers(i have such a continous muscle spasm it is forcing my lower spine to be str8) some pain pills and an antibiotic for a bladder infection that ive obviously had for some time....i figured id share that since i dont have any funny stories to share today...lol

Ms MS...thank you for the s'ghetti...and sorry bout ur trip and job but as u said everything happens for a reason and im sure its gonna be even bettter than before...take it easy tho and dont rush ur healing process :bunchflowers:

Zimmy......still kicking ass at school? keep at it girl!

Jake....hows the new place? all homey now?

Ms Kat...why dont u have some :wine: with JO (it helps her sleep)

Morning...what part of the country u in right now? be safe wherever u may be

to everyone else...kitcheneers and lurkers have a good night

:byebye:

eta: :rrose: everything will be fine tomorrow babygirl...i love you!

Good morning my friends :)

Scoote and I just got back from having our blood tests done. She's right...I'm a huge baby about it and get myself all worked into a tizzy. It helped a lot to know she was there with me (and also to drive home). I get a bit :seeingstars: around needles.

I'm glad to hear you got your mammo done Jake. I had been putting mine off for years, and am now kicking my own butt. I know the "thing" is probably nothing, but it's a scary feeling just the same. I'm a real doctor avoider (as is my sweetie), so it's good for us to do this together. In the last month I've caught up on almost everything....EKG and chest x-ray (heart disease runs in my family), mammo (with a follow up mammo to go), blood work, and pap scheduled at my next doctor appointment. Much better to be on top of this stuff...

MStar, I'm sending you big hugs and good energy. Sometimes the things that kick our butts the hardest turn out to have huge blessings buried inside...and I'm hoping that's the case for you. :rrose:

Off to work for me...it's busy season...but I'll try not to be such a slacker!
:gimmehug: for everyone.....and :lips: to my baby. :love1:

Anatomy final in five minutes!!!

I am nervous but I will pass it!

Evening all :)

Dinner is on :chef2: ...NY strip steaks, buttered egg noodles and green beans. :girleating: Didn't make anything for dessert though...so it may be a "help yourself to the ice cream or the Dove chocolates" night.

Got an email from the loan processor...seems we are "cleared to close" by the bank...package o' paperwork is on the way to the title company...and they're both saying we'll close on the house "no later than" next Thursday, 10/28. So, cross fingers, :vigil: , whatever ya' got! That'll give us 3 days to get everything moved out of the apartment...boys' bedroom furniture delivered...and hopefully my stuff well on the way.

So....our plans for Halloween? Unpacking! :) (and I wonder if Scoote is emotionally prepared for how much Halloween candy I buy for the kids....I'm a double fisted candy giver) :giggle:

um honey...why u telling our personal business like this???? you ARE an exhibitionist arent ya? i knew u was lying b4...lol

DC....lol im sure it is...would love to find out sometime tho just to be sure

evening everyone else...just got home from work and ate dinner...now relaxing on bed with my sweetie watching SVU

as far as giving out candy---ill hide half of it and play dumb :D

hope evryone has a good night....Zimmy how did u do on the test???

Good Evening Scoote, Jo Jo and the family,

I won't know my grade on the final until tomorrow. Ironically, the ScanTron machine broke at the NSB campus, so the professor has to go to the Daytona campus to grade them...I am shooting for an A, but hoping I get a C at the lowest, which means I will end up with a high C as my final grade. I had CS laughing at me on the dash site, I kept typing that I was up studying anatomy all night long, but I forgot one word, and it is "for". So hy took it to the wind and cracked a joke.

Congrats on getting the house!!!!!

I am leaving some chocolate and vanilla pudding to go wtih Jo Jo's dessert!

Have a good night,

Zimmy

Good Night everyone!!

Sleep peacefully and I won't be dreaming about my anatomy class tonight...I woke up at 4:30am this morning to finish studying...

Hugs to all and night!

Zimmy

Good Morning Everyone,

I hope you all slept well and I am thinking of scrambled eggs, toast, juice, fruit, milk, coffee and tea for brunch!

Have fun and I am off to do homework for my microbiology class.

Zimmy
<Anxiously waiting for my anatomy grade>

Jo,

Reeeeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaallly? the 28th??? Keeping everything crossed for all of you..

laughs @ double fisted candy giver.. too funny.. and yeahhhhhhh for the unpacking.. now THIS will be a Halloween to remember..

What did you get???? What did you get????

Hello My friend,

I hope you had a peaceful Friday.. and have some fun things planned for the weekend.

Jake

Well.. it is ABOUT time... grins.. All is well here.. how are you?

:bringcoffee:

Good Evening Jake,

I haven't checked the website since this afternoon. I'm going to check it in the morning.

How are you and MStar doing?

Have a good night to you both!

Zimmy

My overall grade for anatomy is a C! I will be starting anatomy 2 on Monday!!


Brunch is anything you all want!!

Zimmy

Hi Zimmy! Congrats on your grade! :D Party time!!! Woohoo!!!

Good morning all :)

Sorry I've been a slacker! It's been a busy few weeks...and the son and I took the day off yesterday to go be silly at DisneyWorld (the joys of Florida resident annual passes). They're doing some construction, so we missed our usual spin in the teacups, but still had fun on Splash Mountain, Haunted Mansion, Pirates of the Caribbean and all our usual favorites.

Closing on the house Thursday at noon :hangloose: ...right after my doctor appointment and pap smear :seeingstars: I think I'll be having a glass of wine before bed on Thursday for sure :giggle:

Bravo on passing Anatomy Zimmy! :rrose: Here's a nice thing to pass on to all of your patients in the future...Scoote and I both had to have bloodwork last week. I took an old nurse's advice and drank lots of water beforehand, and it went off without a hitch. Scoote didn't, and even with the same phlebotomist she ended up with a bruise (after the woman tried both arms). It's an easy thing to do, and sure seems to make a difference!

I'm heading out (as soon as I wake up the Prince) on a shopping trip with the boys. Probably lunch out somewhere first, and then off to buy new bedding for their new beds, shower curtains and stuff for the bathrooms, etc. The kitties are lobbying for treats and a fresh catnip mouse also... :sunglass:

Hope you all have a great day! :gimmehug:
:lips: baby....new house in 4 days....sweeeeet! :)

Hi From a stranger
 

Hi Everyone (special hi to Jo and Scoote)

Been MIA and presumed dead I think lol lol on this thread. I have been trying to keep up with all the going on but hard sometime. Congrats to Jo and Scoote on the house, well worth the wait hon. I've had some health issues as well that has occupied my brain and work has been busy as per usual.

Hope all turns out well with the bloodwork Jo and Scoote. I read Ms Star had some complications with surgery. Glad to see she is on the mend. Congrats to Zimmy and her schooling.

Hope everyone has a good Sunday.

Musicman

((((Music)))),

Welcome back stranger! Hope you are feeling much better~! I am happy about taking the step to go back to college. It is hard as hell, but well worth it. One day, I to will own my own home and be able to put money aside to help my oldest nephew through college. When he turns 16, my middle brother is giving him a car Mustang, and then he is moving back to this part of Florida...

Hugs and have a good Sunday,

Zimmy

Jo Jo,

Good luck on your next dr's appointment. Maybe we all should plan a Christmas party for the thread? I start dissecting a cat tomorrow in anatomy 2 and I am going to get squeamish....Dissecting a sheep's brain and cow eye was crazy...You can have 85% dark chocolate...My fav is Godiva chocolate..You can order it online.

For the bedding, if you don't find anything you like, you should try Ikea up in Orlando...

Have fun today!

Zimmy

Good Afternoon Everyone,

Lisa and I took the boys to Michaels craft store this morning, getting everything ready for when Elijah and the little girl next door go and carve their first pumpkins tomorrow evening. I picked up some really cute Halloween decorations for the yard for less than $10 for almost 15 items. I am going to the dollar store once I am done with my microbiology quiz and pick up a few more things so we can hang some of the smaller decorations up in our tree in the front yard. Lisa is making Elijah's SpongeBob costume...


I heard from ChrisButch yesterday and hy is really busy right now with school and hys store over in Ireland. I am picking up hys Christmas present before the end of November and I am going to send it to hym with a Christmas card inside. Last year a few of us, did the Christmas card exchange and I am hoping we do it again this year.

Have a good day everyone,

Zimmy

Hi Jake,

I had a fairly peaceful friday, except for work but it was pretty good. I went to the big WWE wrestling event that came to My city last night with My two best str8 female friends and it was a AMAZING time. I got pics with My brand new digital camera and took lots, just trying to figure out how to upload them onto the computer so I can put them on facebook :)

Good to see you again Music, don't be a stranger now eh? lol

I could live in a Michael's craft store if I could ~ I LOVE it there, which reminds Me that I should make a trip there sometime soon! Glad to hear My buddy ChrisButch is doing well ............ I do hope we exchange xmas cards here, I was supposed to last year but couldnt afford to send them however with a job now I CAN afford it so I'm looking forward to it :D

((((((( Music ))))))) ...so good to see you again! I hope you're taking good care of yourself....we miss you!

I just spent wayyyyyyy too much money at Target, but the boys are outfitted with bedding, bathroom stuff for the bathroom they'll share, and I got my list of odds & ends taken care of as well.

There's a brisket slow-cooking on the stove...now I just need to figure out what to make to go with it.

Hugs to all...and hope your day is going well.
