- Hiding In Public
- Ranting Diva
- Selma In The City
- Teri Teri
- Twisted Sister
- Writing From The Inside Out
Thanks for the tag. I will enjoy doing this one. I am a bit worried about your Crohn’s. Is it stress or is the medication not doing its job? I ask if it’s stress because I am quite stressed at the moment and my IBS is playing up something shocking. Take it as easy as you can. Hope you feel better soon.
Selma:
STRESS is one of the MAJOR factors in an attack.
Whats weird is that usually when I get an attack, I am in PAIN for about an hour or so, and then I totally evacuate my body. But this one was different. I was in MAJOR PAIN for a WHOLE DAY yesterday and I didn’t start to evacuate until today. I HATE when I feel like this. and there isnt anything I can do. Ive been taking all my medications at all the right times, and I am not really stressed out. Work is so slow I am not overwhelmed in the office and life at home with The Parents is wonderful. I have NO STRESS about bills, or money, or anything. I have NO IDEA what set this attack in motion. That bothers me.
Thanks for accepting the tag….I cant wait to see your answers to the questions.
#17… that was me from like 17-35!!!!! you are a trip!!!!
I will gladly accept the Tag! I hope you feel better…stay out of the office! That place is cursed!
Paisley:
Dood. I carried that milk crate full of papers EVERYWHERE. I have no idea why I always thought there was going to be a fire and why I had to PACK all my things in the event of a fire every night. I think my MAC/APPLE that I have now is like my NEW crate stuff.
Chef Mom:
Sweet. and yeah, I am HOME today…but its not all fun and games when my stomach is on the fritz. Ugh.
I love your ‘crate stuff’. That is adorable! I enjoyed reading this.
Done. 🙂 Feel better.
Very well done. Now put down the Mac and get some rest!
Worn Out Woman:
Thanks. Glad you enjoyed the read. There is s whole story about that crate stuff. I may decide to write a whole post just about that
Leslie:
Wheee! I am coming over to read it.
(I feel better than yesterday…but just hollow inside. All drained and empty and very TIRED)
Michael C:
I missed most of yesterday laying in bed in so much pain…and I slept A LOT. But, now that my trips to the bathroom have slowed down I think I will go lay back down for awhile.
First of all, I’m so sorry to hear about the Crohn’s Attack.
You dye your hair every 6 weeks? No wonder they look really nice in all the pictures, the highlights are so natural and perfect. Love it 🙂
I’ll do it…I had a whole post planned about my visit to THE CHEATING DENTIST (memba’ him?) yesterday, with magical-peyote-nitrus-gas an’ everything!! But I still feel like I was playing catch with my mouth…and instead of a ball it was a brick. Ugh…
I hope you feel better 🙁
DEFINITELY will do this one! And I might even have several answers that DON’T have the word ‘hockey’ in them. 😉
RMH:
Yep. This sucks. And The only reason my hair looks this good is because one of my CLOSEST friends is a professional hair dresser…and she RULES.
SG:
Sweet!! (glad you will do the meme)
Oh no way…I remember that creepy dentist, the one you told off after he was eyeballing your sister. That guy is gross.
CMK:
Yeay! hahahahahahaha You and that Hockey! 🙂
hey thanks for the tag i think I will do it later…im home sick too. yukko.
I love the crate thing! How cute is that?!!
Oh, and I hope you feel better!!!
Barbara:
Take your time….and I hope YOU FEEL BETTER soon.
Momo:
Im glad you guys like the milk crate…it drove my mother NUTS.
I do feel better, the pain is gone, but my stomach is still a little jumpy….thanks for asking / the well wishes! 🙂 xxoo
Oh THANK YOU! I have NOTHING to write about these days. A meme is just what I need.
Terri:
Dontcha just LOVE when you get a MEME at the exact moment you need it! xxoo 🙂
I just posted the meme and I DIDN’T use the ‘h’ word once! I did, however, mention the Red Wings in passing. 😉
CMK:
