I know from years of experience it doesnt take alot of money to make me happy. Yes its great when I have it wont lie but as long as I can swing rent ect then no big deal on the extras and as I have proved to myself thruout the years I really dont stress out much when rent and the necesseities sometimes cant get payed. It was one of many things that drove my mom crazy - I was born into upper middle class and money never really did it for me.

since getting married i ghave been under the poverty level more than not, paul and i both like to buy things, although i am quite happy is when the bills can be paid and enough mney is left for groceries, but it would be nice to be able to not feel like i need to worry about having enough, i don't guess money does it for me, but i like to buy things and i like to give money to my friends when they need it

anyway, i'm rambling, at least i'm sleepy now LOL
hugs and love

You still here? Proud of you for remembering not to take the Depakote today . .. I swear I dont think I have spelled this bad in quite sometime lol

Ihave had an off and on bloody nose for like 4 hours and I do mean bloody not like just a small trickle.

Going back in this post to see when last morphine dse was as I asked for one but she isnt comng and could be I asked way to early and that wouldnt surprise me as mind is in total la la land

yeppers- no depakote tonight, i was hyper until this evening, wonder how long i will be the enregizer bunny tomorrow, i actually got some housework done, not much as i ain't pushing myself into a flare, but did pretty good, enough to be proud of myself
bloody nose-ouch-do the docs know, or are they too incompetent to handle that, i only ever had one once, and was asleep when it happened, and it wasn;t bad, just freaked me out
i am losing my voice, again, i lost it twice last year, never had a problem with that prior to the fibro, now it's terrible, i can feel my voice going, my throat is sore and mouth and throat are severely dry
i lost my cell phone....have no idea where i left it, so i had to buy another, thaank god for pre-paid, they aren;t expensive, got this one for $15, and got double minutes for life, just waiting for everything to activate

i am rambling again, must be getting tired, LOL
am gonna go to bed after a while, take muscle relaxers and shower and then crash
hope you have a good night and the nose bleed stops
hugs and love

It has slowed down I am wondering if its not because they had pumped me full of blood thinners last week. My trash can is full of bloody kleenex so I am sure someone will figure it out but nce nurse is on tonight so may tell her especially if it starts back up at decent flow. I used to get the when I was little all the time

Little known fact but it is true and it does work. . .easiest way to stop a nose blled. get a smallish piece of brown paper bag and fold it up into a square and place it inside your mouth at inbetween top of lip and gums and apply light pressure - easiest way to stop a nose bleed even a heavy one tho you should sit down while doing it

hallo hallo! *pops out*

nose bleed solution actually makes sense thanks SB

comes in bouncing off the wall eatig grahm crackers and ice cream my new found favorite desert


Dag naabit bet missed Zsa


Hi Tim good evening. . .it wojks really good as long as its semi small ( like size of postage stamp ) and overyly thick andmust be of regular brown paper bag for it to work

Ok luck ran out with the good nurses - all good things must come to an end right?

Nurse Ratchit is on this morning. I got morphine at 530 should have been earlier but IV had leaked and they had trouble finding spot for new one. Anyways night nurse was fantastic. I buzzed at 30 for vicodin but since they were short staffed she never got chance to get down here. I passed her and her replacement at 715 as I went down the hall to the elevator - wanted smoke and vascular surgeon said short walks on it even tho its gonna hurt will hep work the swelling out of it which is one of the reasons I can still have the morphine at such a high dose and the vicodin.

Night nurse asked me if there would be anything I needed when I got back up and I said yeah I was starting to hurt so could I please get the vicodin. She said sure no problem. By the time I got back up tho of course she was gone. Incoming nurse tho had been sitting right there. Day nurse came into my room asked me how I was feeling I said pain is back up around 8 or 9 in some spots in thight thanks to walk could I please get my pain pill. She looked at me and said well perhaps you shouldnt walk on it. I said back to her Dr Kline ( think thats his name - he is Doc #5 ) said I am supposed to be havig short walks and could I please get my pain pill. She just stood there. She then finally said well if there is nothing you need I was like um the pain med? Oh well yeah I guess if you really think you need it I can go check I guess.

I love how some of these fucking Yahoos still think I am a drug seeker plus think that they know more than the vascular surgeon.

And by the way good morning to all my friends :) SMOOCHES

good morning raven- smooches to you too
sorry nurse ratchett is back, god i wish these people woul stop thinking people who are in pain are drug seekers, we're just in pain and need pain pills
aughhhh

hi everyone. wanted to update, but the phone company had briefly cut the service to make upgrades. ughhhhh. they could have at least told us they were gonna cut the service before they did.
hi soss!!!!!! sorry you are having to work, it sucks, here is a hug for having to work
hi raven!!!!!! i hope you can come down out of the tree at least long enough for me to say hi and give you a hug, i love pork roast and am glad they finally gave you some salt, even if it was by accident
so, i took the depakote this morning and instead of feeling crappy like i usually do when the weather brings on a flare, i only felt a little sleepy, that could be form the coffee too, still feel sleepy, but drinking lots of water, it seems to help, got a sore throat and am losing voice
hugs and love to all
