      From Emerald5usa Wednesday

      Hi trish sorry about your computer "ouch" everytime I hear someone say they have to start over from scratch because of a crash. ... I tell myself to get busy and back up my data to CD ... in case this ever happens to me. Maybe sometime this week I will get busy and start doing that .... got lots of blank CD's just have not had the mindset to get it done. Anyway happy you had someone who was able to reload your windows vista for you... Sorry your still having so much pain and fatigue.. and hope you feel better very soon... kind of having some rough days too... and fatigue has been worse then normal ????? thnking maybe is the changing of the seasons ?? Was sure cold out today but no rain... I feel like we just got rid of winter "ugh" dreading it. Better get going wishing some pain free as possible days ahead take care always gentle hugs and prayers and thank you for being such a sweet friend

    • Ray of Sunshine

      From Emerald5usa October 26

      Sending you some sunshine for those dreary days... going to send myself some too as it has been like that here too. I hope today has been a less pain day for you... For Halloween children are not allowed to go door to door here. But we have a community room that is set up to hand out treats to the children that is donated by various tenants and the Birthday Club. Can relate to fighting the pain becoming a daily thing. I am stubborn too but there has been many times when wondered if I would make it through it or not... but here I am lol... so guess we are good fighters too. My back pay is in another mess now say don't have it coming "think they are trying to drive me nuts" Senators office is looking into it. Few weeks ago finally after all those months said they got it figured out and should get a check in a short time and within a couple weeks of waiting said do not have any coming.. long story so will spare you. Will just let you know the final outcome whenever that will be. Wishing you a pain free as possible week my friend... take care always gentle hugs and prayers.
