OT August chit chat 2

[SalpalSally]

No bowling here anymore either. I used to bowl 2 or 3 times a week in my
more agile days..Big SIGH!!! I hate thIS carpy disease.

Hey, good news, DD & DGD came over today.....AND..... I could HEAR their
conversation, with my PSA. Yeaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!

Howie, ain't no hump day going on over here either...LOL!

[Cherie]

Last time I bowled was probably 15 years ago. Never did do well at ANY sport ...always the last to be picked for a team with good reason.

The 5 city thing? Would be spread out over several months so would probably be doable. If I am offered and agree, will certainly post where and when.

Guests are packing up and I should have the house back within the hour. So glad I did my weekend work Thursday after work!

BTW: Weather here has been glorious the past week and a half with lows to 60 at night and highs only to about 75 during the day with light breezes and low humidity.

:)Hi everyone. Sally I am so glad your PSA's work good. I have a hard time remembering to put them in my ears. I probably should keep them in my purse so I have them wherever I am.

Years ago after David and I got together he talked me into trying to bowl. I had to stand at the foul line and throw the ball. I first tried my usual approach and landed on the floor. I only did that one game and I had a low score. Then I just kept score for him. Years ago I was on a league and had a couple of 200 games. I miss tennis the most though as I played at least four times a week and gave lessons to women.

I also miss long distance bicycling, country western dancing, motorcycling and running. MS definitely takes it's toll on our activities. I'm trying to adjust to being idle. I play Soilitaire and Dominoes on the computer, do crossword puzzles and watch some TV. The three years before I met David I never turned the TV on. David never turned it off.

On an up note I am going to a Chinese restaurant with my son Andy and Jamie later. Now I am headed to the kitchen to cut up and bag more mangoes for the freezer. They are all ripe now. Jeanie :)

[Howie]

Jeanie, enjoy your afternoon. I love Chinese food, but haven't been in a long time, too long.

[renee]

I was always the second to last to get picked for any athletic team.
Sometimes I would lift/kick/hit a grand slam.
Those successes were the sweetest.

Meditate on it long enough and the chinese food will come to you.

[Howie]

Ah-so, you are most wise Renee.

[Howie]

I slept until noon, got up and made coffee, did the cat chores, and now I'm drinking that coffee, and eating a Pop Tart.
"Life is good".....an old Chinese dude taught me that one Renee.

[Frog42]

I see Howie's eating health food again!

[Howie]

Yeah, I try to fit it in between my exercise sessions.

[Virginia]

Yea for Howie!! He is such a health food addict.

I am slightly better - I got up about 10AM and had cereal with half a banana. But then at two for my lunch I had Greek yogurt, after which I had a very small piece of very dark chocolate. I had some fresh asparagus in the fridge, so I sat down and prepared them so I can steam some tonight and have with my still leftover food from neighbor's house Friday night. I just love leftovers. Good food without having to cook. I did fix one of the dishes myself - a squash casserole. I love it, but never fix it for just me.

I go to Neurologist next week for six month appointment. I am very, very fatigued lately, but know there is nothing he can do for me. If I could say how much I hate MS on this forum, I would have to use language that I do not use in my everyday life, because I can't think of anything bad enough to say about it. However, if I did, after bleeping out all the words they would kick me off. Guess I just have to grin and bear it - like everyone on here.

[Howie]

Well I'll say it for you Virginia. They wouldn't dare bleep me out!

This *** **** disease gets me so mad sometimes, I just want to yell, take this ******* **** away, I'm ******* tired of it!!!!

There, I said it!

[agate]

But then at two for my lunch I had Greek yogurt, after which I had a very small piece of very dark chocolate.

Well now, Virginia, about that very small piece of very dark chocolate, we'll need to know its dimensions (length, width, height) and weight before you'll get by with putting it in the "very small" category, but take your time.


You can finish your Pilates session at least.

[Frog42]

I absolutely LOVE grilled asparagus!

Asparagus? Well, we knew SOMETHING was wrong with you.

[Jeanie Z]

:) Hi everyone. I don't want Chinese food again for a long time.

When we got in the car headed home I got diarrhea and felt sick. I think it was the crab salad. I have not had diarrhea that bad since I had the flu.

Many of the Chinese food places here are listed on the TV stations Dirty Dining section. They list the ones who have bad health reports. I wish I had looked there before going there. We were headed to one we have gone to before but it was closed so this was the next one we found and I had not looked it up.

Today I stayed in bed all day and slept a lot. I feel better tonight. Jeanie :)
