...snow again,,,this shit is goign to drive Ohio & a lot of other states CRAZY...road rage? please...snow rage...

Tif brought Talan over yesterday! They were here all day, cuz Tif's nnot going back to being a hairstylist full time & she's only gonna do the dr's office on Saturdays. Good for her!! Look at Talan...he wants his Mommy! (& she wants him too!...can you blame either one??)

She's still selling Mary Kay, & she's gonna clean houses for people...I'll pay her for that! & I always get Mary Kay stuff! She cleaned here so well yesterday, even did about 5 loads of laundry! It's damn near sterile in here now! hahahaha!

Talan's hair is the same color as mine..reddish blonde!

So, yeah, I've actually been busy lately, attorneys, attorneys, attorneys...ergo, yadayadaya...

There's about 6 inches of snow on the ground now bleeeeaaaaaah! I am SO done with winter!!!

So, I don't have insurance after March 10. But whatever, I'm figuring all this out as it goes along...the great news is that I still feel really good, since I quit taking tysabri! And, actually, I got a needle biopsy Tuesday. I hurried up & got it ASAP when I found out Kev's job was gonna be gone at the end if the month. The needle biopsy really isn't quite as painful as it sounds. I think a lot of it is if you really like your dr., & trust her to stick a needle in your throat! I'll find out the results in a few days.

Bro's company does have a website. Which is good, if you need a business remodeled...http://stevensconstruction.net/

We were on the phone today, and he has as much attitude as ME at treasury secretary, "Timmy" Geithner. I guess what brought the subject up was me talking about doing my taxes, get it? I'm basically at the point "As soon as I see the secretary of the treasury do HIS taxes, I'll file mine..."

:-/

Haloscan quit its comments, so I spent all day today figuring out all kinda stuff in html..I still can't get rid of the bunch of numbers at the bottom...help?

740th post...

Wow, that's a whole helluva lot more than I knew!!

I feel lots better now...not "normal", but a whole helluva lot stronger...I can stand up from sitting without having to pull myself up by using the closest desk or counter, or table, or whatever! & my hands are strong again, I can cut my own nails again, for heaven's sake! You have no idea how crippled I felt two weeks ago...I can even straighten out my little finger on my right hand again, the one that my neuro thought I had nerve damage in my elbow! And...I have "goiter news" now! I went to the newest doctor in town, an endocrinologist, and she's really nice...she was with me talking for about 45 minutes and then she felt my throat, and she actually said she could feel the thing (I sure can't, & thank God I can't see it, either!) But, at that appt, she looked over the x-rays that I had with the radioactive stuff in me, and said it didn't look bad, not cancerous or anything, but give her some time to go over them in detail, & she'd get back to me to let me know if I needed a needle biopsy...well, I got a letter in the mail from her assistant today (she's super-nice, too!) that said she found nothing to worry about, just get back to her for a checkup on it in about 4 to 6 weeks! Wahh-hoo! I'm just so damn lucky, all the people I meet are always really nice, and I always have to wonder why everybody says people are awful...huh.
Even my dissolution lawyer...I've been told by Kevin 1, and another good friend from 9th grade that they each HATE him! Go figure...I like him...we get along good, he even goes to the back alley behind his office with me when I leave, so he can talk to me & have a cigarette. He's funny....I asked him once, "does the city realize how much more work you could do if you had an ashtray in youur office??" lol!
No, I haven't got together with Kevin 1 again yet...we both know that we will see each other soon, but both of us have shit-tons of stuff going on...he's been working 7 days a week for awhile, & he has an 8-yr old daughter who lives with him & his wife (that's ok...she knows all about me & he even had a girlfriend who lived with them for a few years...long story...he's lead guitar in a local rock band, you expect that, right? I always aspired to be a groupie, anyway!). This is the best kind of guy to get involved with, though...he won't want any more than I do...do you know what I mean? My goal is to NEVER get seriously involved with anyone again, & the only safe way to do that is be with someone else that wants that just as little as you do!
My friend from 9th grade, she hooked back up with me on FB...I have fun on there, really. But she was here Friday for a few hours, we haven't really been hanging around together for a few years, the last thing we did was go to a Def Leppard concert in Columbus in 1995...I remember telling her "they looked better in the 80's"...she looked at me, & said "didn't we all??" bwahahaha!! Dammit!! I didn't NEED to be reminded of that! She & her first husband hung out with me & my first husband, when I was pregnant with Tif! Now we're both single...she's a prison guard...Someday I'll ghostwrite some of HER stories too!!

I'm back...

Well, I'm back...I've actually been here, but, I had tons of stuff to deal with. Talan is GREAT, everybody! He sleeps all night, and needs to be woken up for his bottle, for heaven's sake! Sheesh! Tiff has the best baby, and a great husband...me, I had a fussy baby that never slept, I was 18, & in a miserable marriage, no $$, really hard labor (26 hours worth)...but I'm really glad her life is this way!! There's nothing better for a mom than to see her daughter have it easier than she did, right? I KNOW all the moms out there will agree with that!!
The reason I haven't been around at all is my f*cking ms, actually. It was getting worse by the minute, and I didn't know what to do...But, I finally put it all together, and decided to quit doing the tysabri, and I want to get back on my avonex once a week shots for ms, because it'd been 6 weeks since I had my last tysabri iv, and I was feeling a LOT better and stronger! Because they wouldn't give it to me at the four week interval, cuz I couldn't even stand up, and when I told the iv nurse that I had fallen 3 times that DAY before I got there, she said no, you need to see your neuro before I give this to you again. So, I did that, & it was pretty much the same...I was set up with another appt to get it again Thursday the 4th, but all of a sudden, I started to realize how much stronger I felt without it! My hands worked, and I could actually walk with my walker! OMG!! That's when I called my iv nurse, & told her take me off the schedule for the foreseeable future, I was SO done with the tysabri! And I still am! It's a great medicine for some people, but I'm not one of them! And, I know this is just a random thihngy on FB, but, wouldn't it speak to you??

On this day, God wants you to know...
... that today you have a cause for celebration. Today, you should celebrate what an unbelievable life you have had so far: the accomplishments, the many blessings, and, yes, even the hardships because they have served to make you stronger. Just as a gem cannot be polished without friction, nor can a life be perfected without trials. Take a time to acknowledge your life and to praise yourself.

Wow...damn..wow! So fitting...

Okay...I'm sitting here watching "Confessions Of A Serial Killer", on MSNBC, about Jeffrey Dahmer. Remember when that story happened? I do. I'll never forget that! I was at work at GTE then.Those were big 'news years' ya know? There was the OJ trial too. & the Laci Peterson story, which I could SEE that Scott Peterson was guilty the first time I looked at him! Am I sick that I can remember all this? And Caylee Anthony, and Haleigh Cummings in Florida...
Okay, I hafta order dinner...macaroni & cheese (their secret ingredient is cottage cheese!) & a big ground steak sandwich with mushrooms! (you can either get 1/4 lb or 1/2 lb!)

Did you laugh your ass off when you made the connection that Mr Krabs (from spongebob) lives in Bikini Bottoms??
