Good morning to all. It is going to be about 10 degrees cooler today than yesterday, but it will still be shirt sleeve weather.
I added a recipe to the one I saw from yesterday. It is a simple casserole.
I pray that all of you have a very pleasant and pain free day.
Migraines are almost gone, but I have the next day stiffness. The weather will be getting better over the weekend so I will be getting better also.
Laundry to do as soon as hubby gets up. We have to take it to the complex laundry room about 3 apartments down, so not a far walk.
I had a dream last night that Ed and I were going to go out to lunch but I got tired of sitting on the hard bench. I took a small walk around the bench and when I looked up the bus had stopped and picked Ed up and was leaving and I could not get it. I was angry because Ed had my bus pass. That was the end of the dream, but even if he had the pass it is not a real long walk back to the house to get another one and the 15 minutes between buses would have been plenty of time. Also he always gives me my pass before we leave the apartment.
Silly things we dream of.

i'm glad to hear the migraines are almost gone. good luck with the laundry today. that recipe looks yummy. that would be great for a brunch, too. oh, i'm plenty familiar with crazy dreams.
i've been awake since 3:30. sore throat is back. just comes back in the middle of the night. otherwise i'm just tired. the mobile market and the resident luncheon are today. i'll get some fresh fruit. well, i'm sure others have come in this has taken me so long.
wishing all a nice day!
I'm glad your migraine is going away. They can be so painful and just ruin my day when I get them. The pain clinic I go to was starting to do Botox treatments for them. I was trying to get those but the topromax worked. It would have been nice to rid of some of my wrinkles while getting rid of the headaches at the same time.
I hope you feel better and can get your laundry done. I always have weird dreams to. I always wonder what they mean. Hope everone has a low pain day.
Love and hugs,

It took me a long time too, don't feel bad. I'm sorry your sore throat is back. I hope you can get some rest today and finally get rid of it. I know you said the mobile market is coming. I hope you're able to get what you need today. It's nice that you have something like that that comes around.
I hope you have a nice day honey. Enjoy the luncheon if you're able to go.
Love and hugs,

Grammagus i'll have to check out your casserole dish. Glad your migraines are letting up, hopefully they stay gone! Maybe that dream is from your migraine frustrations? Just guessing.
Serenity sorry to hear you're not sleeping so well, hope you're not back on that pattern again :(. Try chewing some gum before you go to bed for that dry throat (something I need to do myself). Mm fresh fruit, I have been craving canalope so bad!
Hey ME throw some of that Botox my way! The dr. next to mine does it, but expects cash on delivery, wow! No wonder his office is almost always empty.
Hello Ericka like your idea of an attitude adjustment! I need one myself! The weather here is the same, from one extreme to the other! Keep those levels down.
Had a phone call this morning from a fantastic friend to start my day off :), then my brother surprised me and wow what a surprise for his rebel butt to show up! My oldest daughter texted (ugh),that she will come by after work. My Mom knocked on the door and handed me some cd's and left (LOL). Had another lovely friend call. Have my wonderful family here! All and all a great Fun Diddy Whop of A Day!
Love and many Hugs To You All With A Sprinkling Of Feeling Goods,

The storm coming in had me in alot of pain the last few days anyway. Yesterday the snow and wind started but we were lucky not to lose our power, many on PEI did. The storm was still raging this morning with high winds and snow so no school again and we still haven't seen a snow plow. The snow in my street is higher than the snowbank in my front yard which is at least as tall as me. I think I hear the plow on the next street over now but that doesn't mean it will be fit to go anywhere for along time yet. I truly wish winter would just stop already. So far we have had about 50 cm (20 inches) of snow but more coming tomorrow and talk of more Sunday. Nuts!! just plain nuts!!
I hope the worst of the weather has passed by for everyone and that pain levels can improve now. I don't know about everyone else but this weather makes me hurt worse. Take care all my friends and Happy Birthday Toni (Its my sister's birthday too) Love and hugs,

Hope everyone's day is going well. It's almost Friday already! This week has really flown by. I'm sorry I missed Toni and Minnie's party yesterday. I had very good intentions of logging in last night... I was just too darn tired and fell asleep in my chair (with my ipad in hand). I got my new living room furniture yesterday which meant LOTS of work for me and hubby. I took advantage of everything being out of the room and polished the hardwood floors. My body is not very happy with me but the living room looks great. :)
Grammagus, your recipe sounds good and easy to make. I'll have to give it a try. Glad your migraine is settling down. They are so miserable. Its funny how many of us CP'ers have migraines. Makes me wonder if isn't med related. I know NSAIDS raise the frequency of mine.
Serenity, sorry to hear you were up so early! Hope you are getting some sleep now and the sore throat is feeling better.
Mary Ellen, our little dancing queen! Hope you're healing up and will be back to your old self soon. I saw the fires in Boston on the news. How horrible! Is that anywhere near you?
E4, I hope you come back with a positive attitude. haha! I'm long overdue for one myself and made an appointment for Saturday. It's funny you call it attitude adjustment... I am cranky when I have a bad hair day. LOL.
BIRTHDAY GIRL!!! It sounds like you are having a good day. Hope you got the dinner, bottle of wine and masseuse I sent over. I hope the rest of your day is as special as you are!
Lisa, OMG, you poor thing. THAT IS TOO MUCH SNOW! I will not complain again about ours (ok, that's a lie but I'll try to keep in mind that others have it worse). Spring is officially here but someone forgot to tell Mother Nature.
Take care everyone.
Love and hugs,
Vicky
The fire was in downtown Boston which is probably 20 minutes drive time. It's just so sad. They had that and then they had a car that the gas or something got stuck and the car plowed through the crowd hitting 3 people and I know they were hurt but not sure if they died too or not. It was a crazy day yesterday.
Erika, I like that attitude adjustment too, I'm going to need one when I get this collar off from them shaving my head. I hipe you enjoyed your day!
Love and hugs,

Sorry I missed you there honey. I hope your daughter is feeling better today than the other day. There are so many bugs going around that you have to be so careful. I'm with you, enough of the snow. I'm so over it. We were suppose to get hit yesterday, but thankfully, we didn't get it. It went more to the South of us and hit Cape Cod with over a foot. My body hurts in the cold weather so I'm looking forward to the warmer weather. It can't come fast enough for me.
Hope you have a low pain evening.
Love & hugs,
