Good morning Everyone!

I'm up early this morning. My husband and I are off to Toronto and for this trip, there will be no doctors. It's a pleasure trip...short but sweet I hope!

Have a terrific day everyone!

Good Morning all feeling pretty good today. No plans just go to regester my son today at school. Good day to all Jamie

Good morning everyone -- hope you all got some decent sleep and have a good day ahead. Good size rain storm here in NJ last night - thunder, lightening, lots of rain-- was actually nice to listen to..... I always liked storms, but currently living outside of LA where it hardly even rains!! We have been in NJ visiting for a couple of weeks now and my kids have sooo enjoyed the rain storms!!

Josee-- so glad to hear you and your husband are getting away - I hope you have a wonderful time....

Cat- I enjoyed reading a bit about your career in tv & film -- and wish you luck moving into another area. I was not at all surprised that you have written for tv and sold a screenplay - you are very good with words!

Really enjoy reading everyone's daily posts. Have a good day....

Good morning everyone!!! Glad your going to have a pleasure trip in TO josee.I am tired today and legs sore but am feeling some better. Going to take a little nap soon. Hugs and a good day to everyone. huggies marilyn

Good Morning my friends. Guess what, still HOT in TEXAS!! I mean, HOT as HADES! No surprise there. Lots of pain today, but I think it's because I over did it yesterday with the errands. My Dad is still here and I am still taking care of him, I love that he is here but it is putting a lot of stress on my hands and arms. Yesterday and this morning are the worst days I have had in awhile. Woke up crying b/c of pain, but I really don't want my Dad to see because he will think it's because of all the extra work because of him and while that may be true, I would never want him to feel guilty.
My Dad is my hero and if he could take care of my sick Mom for 8 years, I can certainly suck it up for a couple of months :-)
Josee, glad you are going on a fun trip, that's AWESOME!
Help01, glad you are enjoying the rainstorms. I lived in the Northeast for 7 years, so I definitely know what it's like!
Dallas, ENJOY YOUR NAP!
Everyone else - have a painfree and wonderful day! Thanks for all your support, I really appreciate everyone!

Good morning, everyone... mostly good or neutral news from y'all, glad to hear it... except for Momzor. I am so sorry you're in so much pain, but that was a really inspiring message about your dad. That's what we have to remember on the bad days...

It's very difficult when you have to do a lot of work around the house. I find that there is a "tipping point" for me... I can move a little furniture, do a little gardening, even work out a bit, but if I start picking up bags of cement... or if I were taking care of another family member... the extra work pushes you over that tipping point, and the amount of pain the next day is totally disproportionate to the amount of activity. You might only do 20% more work but have 65% more pain, etc.

Take care and thanks for the motivational, inspirational message! I need it... I am getting a bit down about the employment situation, really starting to feel the pressure now, and I have to maintain a positive attitude.

Help01, thanks for the compliments on my writing style... actually, I've felt like my grammar and spelling are slipping a bit into the "brain fog" and it does concern me. I am going to be more careful about diet and exercise and see if that helps.
