good morning CP peeps... :-)
..been a while since I started this thread .
..kinda hopin' some old school CP will stop by.
y'all may recall I don't cook..
i'll buy mcD's...
I've been thinking about the common denominator here
for most of us.
...I had a good reminder this morning..
it being one of those..' GOD, i HOPE MEDS HELP" DAYS..
When I found the CP site..I was so desperate to communicate
with someone who "got " it.
I was SO grateful to find that here.
..that's why..even when I get frustrated with how
things are going here...I always come back..
because I can't stand to think of some one equaly desperate
NOT finding it.
I hope everyone has the best possible day they can.
oh..and..gooood evening to the southern hemisphere.
hugs

Can you identify these rom-coms from just a screenshot from the middle of the films? This is a multiple choice quiz so even if you're not entirely sure you can always take a guess and at least have a 25% chance of getting it right anyway, so why not have a go?! https://www.buzzfeed.com/alysaurus688/rom-com-screenshot-trivia-quiz
Wow, it's nice to see you this morning! I hope it's not the pain that has you up this early. McD's, huh, their coffee is the best. Anytime I get coffee outside, that's where I go, it's the best, so I'll definitely have a cup. I hope you're a good day and I feel the same about finding this site JC.
It was just about a year ago actually that I found this place by accident and am so very glad I did. I have found some very good friends and family here who have helped me through some very hard, tough, times, surgeries, lots of pain, etc. It's nice to know someone is always here for you to help you.
So JC, you don't have to cook honey, (lol) You've been one of those who have been there for me many times so Thanks honey. Hope you have a good day, one with less pain and low stress.
I'm actually off to the beach today, which is very unusual for this time of year, but high in 80's will get me there any day. To have warmth on my bones is heaven. The rest of the week I have Dr's appts., so I'm taking advantage of today.
I hope everone has low pain today.
hugs & love,
Mary Ellen

the beach sounds heavenly...
maybe we should all grab a Mcmuffin
and head that way... :-)
hugs
we must have typed at the same time.
I hope your Dr finds something that really helps with your pain.
I can "hear" how desperate it's making you.
hugs

Wishing everyone before me and after me a low pain/pain free day.
I too love McD's coffee...I always get the senior cup of course it is cheaper...LOL I will have one now two creams put in it and a sausage mcmuffin would be wonderful....
I have no plans today so I will prob sleep the day away...did that yesterday...forgot to take meds until about 4pm...oh well...took this morning meds so will be ok....hugs all....
So glad to see you starting this thread! Long time.....
Finding this site was a life saver for me also. So many things have happened since I joined and I know it would have been so very hard to have coped without my friends / family here at DS.
I love the morning post. Not always able to post, but I get to see people living their lives. Their struggles and accomplishments. I think it helps ground me.
I went to the new gov ins web site and finally was able to set up an account but can't log in. So frustrating :( Looking at the Kaiser Family Foundation estimated cost, I don't think I will be able to afford it anyway, but I will keep trying to log on and find out for sure.
First week without a doctor's appointment since November. I should celebrate! I think I will join you in some McD coffee, my favorite, and try to get some sleep today.
Mary Ellen- Enjoy the beach. It it the best place to find peace for me.
Fibrowitch- Hoping the doctor finds the right med to control your pain.
Melissa- Enjoy that grandson, they grow up too fast. 6 is such a fun age.
Wishing all a low pain day, full of positive moments.
Hugs-RJ
We must have been typing at the same time.
Wish McD had senior coffee down here. We have too many seniors and they would go bankrupt. :)
Hope you get extra students soon.
Hugs-RJ
