  1. Morning Sillies! I need to rant and I am sorry but this has been boiling inside me since yesterday afternoon. So this is Administrative Professionals week--yep no longer is there just a day its an entire week. So we have 2 support staff people that we always honor by having a potluck and getting them a small gift...So we talked about it last week and then...
  2. I cannot believe you would do that to yourself. I am not trying to come off as a witch but this is just not smart at all. The after effects far weigh out the positive effects. We have all been tempted but I have never done something like this....
  3. Morning Sills Had a nice weekend--now its back to work and rainy weather! The warm temps and sun this weekend was a tease. I spent the day on Saturday with my mom and niece Silvia, we visited her mommy and new sissy. That baby was a cutie and I didnt not want to put her down. Afterwards we took Silvia to the park and then to the ice cream stand. I got her...
  4. I need all the help I can get. My husband and I just bought our first house (in Jan.) and I want to plant a garden. I already picked up seeds--tomatoes, peas, radishes, lettuce and cucumbers. I am excited. We live in the suburbs, but we have this nice level yard perfect for a garden. Plus I also want to plant some sunflowers. I need to get some flowers...
  5. Morning All John's got his f/u appt with the surgeon today. He is getting all his stitches out and hopefully will be a lot better. I am leaving work at 12 to go get him and then come all the way back here. Hopefully today we will get a better idea of when he can go back to work. Tomorrow we are heading home to see the new baby. The weather here is...
  6. Hi Sillies-- I cant wait to go see the new baby on Saturday. I posted some new pics over on the spacebook. She is a cutie. Welcome Home Lisa!!!!
  7. I have to agree wtih Raven, anywhere that has a Wegmans near is celiac haven. I would not have had such an easy transition without that store.
  8. Yes do agree-- you know how much more productive I would be at work LOL!!!! love it!!!
  9. Here's what I got Margherita 8lb 5 ounces 19 1/2 inches
  10. Sillies! Must announce the arrival of my neice this morning--just about an hour ago. My sister Tammy gave birth to her 2nd little girl. She was 8lb 4 ounces. Much bigger than Silvia. They have not given us her name yet. Last I was aware her name was Margherita. He is Italian and it is his mothers name. They were undecided by that, Victoria or Kiara.
  11. I love Dean Koontz! My faves were Funhouse, Twilight Eyes, Phantoms and I keep forgetting the title but the one where everyone ends up at the hotel in the wilderness--all having strange things- a kid keeps saying the Moon, one guy starts sleepwalking, another in afraid of the dark. It was very interesting. Morning Everyone- rain and coldness again today...
  12. Hi Everyone- Sorry its been so lng since I updated but it has been a long few days. I finally got John home- and yesterday I called a patient advocate for him. Friday evening he had a horrid nurse--refused to give him his prescribed pain meds even after the dr was in to see him and understood he was in a lot of pain. Then she cath him--and didnt lubricate...
  13. Hi Sillies- Was a very long day for us-- Didn't get to bed till 1 and then up @ 4 to be at the hospital for 5:15. John and I really liked his surgeon. I was crying before we left the house--just scared I guess. They had him on his way to the OR @ 7:15. I was alone when I said goodbye. His mom had not arrived yet. I had dried my eyes before entering the...
  14. Morning Everyone- An emotional evening lastnight. John has a surgery date for this Friday. it is a big relief but the reality hit in. I spent some time crying--John's real nervous as well. Although he has been through much larger surgeries during cancer, surgery is surgery. He is concerned about the sedation. During his chest surgery for his tumor removal...
  15. Morning sillies- Keep your fingers crossed-John might get his surgery by the end of the week! He is seeing the doctor here today and that doctor said he is not sure why the doctors in the other hospital are dragging their feet--esp. when a patient is in pain and not eating. crazy system we have! The weather here is cold again! Last week I broke out my sandals...
  16. Hi everyone-late posting here--busy day. John's still sick- and not getting better. Jen was at work last night and knows this fab GI dr in our hospital and he has agreed to see JOhn. He cannot understand why this other dr is insisiting on more scans while a patient is in this much pain. John has not eaten since Monday--a nibble here and there and then...
  17. Morning Sillies- A very dreary rainy day and windy too--although it is in the 60's so at least it is warmer.... John is hanging in there-going for a HIDA scan on Tuesday--he has 2 large gall stones...but right now he is barely eating since everything bothers him even stuff that is not supposed to. I am doing ok. I started new antiboitics the...
  18. I think that is just what the Dr recommends LOL--and maybe Mister T can be his visiting nurse. I am glad- we worried about cancer due to John's history. So this was a relief.
  19. Morning Sillies It's official John needs his gall bladder out. So they should be scheduling that anytime now. I do hope quite soon since he is in agony. I am not sure how he gets through an 8-hour day. He barely eats right now. Even things which are not supposed to bother him are. Its another dreary rainy day here thick fog too. One of those lay in bed...
  20. Happy April Fools Day Sillies a very dreary morning here. John has an ultrsound scheduled @ 9. They believe his gall bladder has gone bad. He had a PE on Monday and when the DR felt around John was jumping off the table. So keep your fingers all crossed. I really want some answers today. We have postponed our mothers-day FL trip in case he would need to...
  21. Morning Everyone Went to the Dr's yesterday-got a pretty bad infection, but my throat is swollen and red (never bothered me so I had no idea) and an ear infection which also hadn't bothered me. So now I am back on meds again-this time I am Biaxin. This is the first time I used this one. I just didn't want to go on the Z-pak again. I have been on it so much...
  22. I actually never had any until I moved to this area and was working in the hospital not even in the lab but in the office and it seems the others get them alot...
  23. Sillies- well how to start--I am scared. I think I have a very masty sinus infection but it has the worst and scariest symptoms. 2 weekends ago I had this nasty headache- like none other. It actually stopped in my tracks and I had to lie down and take a nap- fort. it was a weekend. Small headaches all through audit week and so I attributed to the stress of...
  24. soggy marshmallows???? Morning Sillz- Dreary morning. Today well tonight we are meeting my college buds to go bowling--last time I went bowling I slipped and fell on the alley....boy was that embarrassing..... So watching property ladder right now--fun fun!
