I think my next show to binge watch will be House of Cards. I've never watched it, but I love Kevin Spacey, and I love that type of show. It'll be a Netflix binge. Usually they start when I wake up at 1am and I can't go back to sleep. Which is often.

Good to see you JC!

Hi JC. I'm also doing more reading than posting lately. I've been on DS since 2008 but cancelled my account for 3 days and when I came back they wouldn't give me my original username. But I'm here and it's always good to see you!

Checking in. Thank you fuzzy slippers for the roll call.

I have replied twice and lost it so I will just say hello.

Been under the weather with the weather.

So good to see those who have popped in that haven't
around.

love and peace
hippy

I've had a bug that wouldn't go away, so mostly lurking. A friend of mine died last fall and they are having a memorial service for him this Friday. I upped my dose of prednisone for a few days so I can make it through the day physically. Had my hair cut. But it is sort of like going to a high school reunion after 30 years, and I'm afraid ever one will be think, "Oh, did Ann age badly!" Oh, well, if they haven't seen me for 30 years, they are not exactly my best friends.

Hi
I've been around off and on since last year. Sometimes I post more than others. It just depends how exhausted I am and whether or not my brain works.

Yvette- if you like politics, sex, intrigue, and violence you'll love house of cards. It's awesome. I have such a crush on both of them, Robin wright and spacey.

I have netflix on 24-7, usually greys anatomy. I've seen the series like 13 times. It calms my anxiety for some reason, I don't like quite and alot of the time I can't do anything else. I watch Weeds, Scandal, Happy Valley has a new season. Oh Grace and Frankie is so funny, it's with lily Tomlin and Jane fonda and they are such great characters.

I don't like commercials anymore they make me nervous. I just watch the new greys and Scandal on on demand.

Anyway the pain has been pretty awful lately so it's been easier to reat and not post.

Hey JamCam.

I'm here.. and in pain and in a bad mood.

uggggggggggggh.

oops.. JanCam..

I'm also pissed off....... but I'm tired of whining.

xo

Well after a relatively pain free day (yesterday) a three hour bout in public today has left me in severe pain. I got some really bad zapping jolts of pain sitting on the toilet. Now my leg is s angry at me I don't even have the will power to stand up and wash five dishes. I went to the Hematologist today and was confirmed as APS and blood thinners for life. I already expected that though. She also said my leg pain is permanent and that she doesn't believe stenting the leg is going to be successful. She said to start wearing compression socks and to take other precautions if I start driving again. I told her I was still dispatching as she is kind of conservative and does not like people who claim disability. After her visit I got a bad one sided headache. The pain wasn't crippling, but it felt like someone was stabbing my head eye on the right side. Now I just have a headache in the front top of my head and eyes. I guess the only way to stop my pain is to stay in a chair all day. No more walking up inclines and through several parking lots. How is everyone else doing tonight? Hugs!

Hi JanCam!

I'm still here! I'm sorry you've had some rough times.

Often I don't feel good enough to post but I do manage to read.

Money is very tight so a few days a week I try to get some horses ridden or teach a lesson to pay some bills. Then I have to recover for a few. Ice pack and bed.

Thank god for Netflix. Isn't the new Orange is the New Black supposed to be out soon?

That last surgery to fix radiculopathy from a pinched nerve, left a huge knot of scar tissue, impinging on a nerve. Causing horrid muscle spasms and nerve pain in my neck and back.

Sorry to whine... Grateful for all of you!

Howdy All... :)

Looks like I came back just in time... I've been away... Pain and Depression both kicking my ass... and most of my devices all died over about a week's time...

I try to read posts when I can't post myself, but this last stint kept me away from pretty much everything... I've basically been a full-time recliner jockey these days... spending about 21 or 22 hours out of every 24 in the recliner... About the only time I leave the house is to go to see a Doc... or have a test...

Had lumbar and cervical MRIs a feww weeks ago... can now add cervical spinal stenosis to the list... yippie... The otheer thing that's been out of control lately is my tinnitus... after 38 years of constant screamin g in my head you'd think I'd get used to it... no such luck... Lately it's been so bad sometimes that I can't even put my earbuds in my ears...

When that happens, I lose most of my main coping strategies... and my only source of my "simulated sleep"... my "4 Hours Sleep In 40 Minutes" brainwave entrainment MP3... Then I get crankier than usual... and that makes for some touchy family dynamics around here... NOT fun!

OK, now my hands are REALLY screaming and I haven't laid down since day before yesterday and I think that hour of rest is wearing off... Wishing all low pain and higfh spirits...

Peace,

Dave

Hi,
Nice to see Old and New friends. I try to check in as I can. My challenges have been a bit tougher than normal. So, I have not been a daily poster but am hoping to get back to showing up to the party more often. :)

BILL and anyone else who feels that when they get their pain under control that they do not belong here. Are you serious??? You have been through the pain everyday just like the rest of us. You have valuable information and support to offer. I am glad for anyone who has succeeded at pain relief. That is everyone's goal. So you can offer hope that it can be attained in some cases. You can offer support to those of us who very likely will not see a totally pain free day again. Just my humble opinion. Throw in some chocolate with that support! :)

Wishing all a peaceful evening.

Hugs-RJ

I am around

Not much to say

Peace
Michael

In regards to binge watching.
Totally X Files lol.

Having a lot of problems with my lower back, so I've been binge watching while on ice

UGH! For some reason Thursday night has too many shows on to watch with Idol back on and so I have to record several then catch up on them...I'm behind on Grey's, but with out McDreamy, kinda gotten bored with it. But HAVE to catch up on Scandal....sigh too much good TV, not enough down time.

I rented and watched with my sister and mom the Tom Hanks film
Bridge of Spies which is based on true story and was very good movie...I enjoyed crying at the end too because I am a softy for good movies...LOL

I rented it at Redbox along with Specter the newer 007movie with coupon for one free...so $1.63 and two fine movies I have to watch Specter tomorrow but think it is going to be good because it is a Bond flick
