In a negative place today.

Spine has seized up. Can't bend, can barely sit, can barely breathe.

Feel like I've been kicked in the middle of my spine.

Had a facial yesterday with an enzyme peel. Forgot how sensitive my skin is now.

It is crusty and red and rough today.
Looks like I either spent too long in a tanning bed, or a month at sea.

One cat had dental surgery yesterday. So all the cats are on wet food now. Woke up to a diarrhea delight on the crapet. Carpet.

Finally got new glasses. (prescription changed a lot from lyme and bartonella).

Bought 2 pairs. One pair is perfect. The other is like looking through a wine bottle when I move my head.

Full of cherry angiomas on my skin from bartonella. Over 20. Got a quote for laser removal- $400.

Just real sick of lyme and co today. I'm not impressed with life.

Does anyone have any funny stories to tell?

I could really use some tonight.

Let's hop in that transporter or whatever you called it and go to the beach...or somewhere that's not going to be -0 windchill.

Have you watched "Crazy, Stupid, Love"? HILARIOUS.

Also, I've heard " Identity Theft" and "The Heat" are funny.

Hmmmmm...on Christmas Eve we were at my sister's house having Christmas dinner. I thought the only two people in the living room were my sister and myself.

So, I was telling her about my in-laws and I said "I hate his parents". Then I looked across from me and my husband was sitting right there!

My eyes do not work so well anymore. I have trouble finding figures in space and apparently my husband too!

Laxmom-

Deal-transporter is fired up!

I wouldn't mind popping over to somewhere with a nice breeze and some fresh pineapple, and sandy shores with refreshing salt water.

Yes, both those movies are hilarious!

Maybe I should put on Bridesmaids.

I just read my last post. Geesh! It's so negative it needs a wah wah wah sound effect.

Thanks lax. [Smile]

Did you ever watch the movie "The Man Who Knew Too Little" starring Bill Murray?

I never laughed so much in my life.

I'm trying, Greta, but I'm having a hard time capping your own unintended humor: diarrhea delight on the "crapet"! [lol]

Lax Mom, I _always_ get in situations like that, and I don't even have a problem finding figures in space!

OK, very funny (BBC) TV series: Doc Martin, about a grumpy, uptight doctor. Bonus: you get to laugh at a grumpy, uptight doctor ("Out of my clinic!"). Bonus: you get to do that while looking at a drop-dead gorgeous Cornish village with amazing landscapes.

Oh my gosh,

I just remembered some funny advice. Never, I repeat NEVER go to a Dr that you bought a deal off of Groupon for.

There's a reason they are on Groupon!!!!!!   I found my chiropractor on Groupon
and his deal was too good to be true. About $45 for first visit, xrays, and an hour massage...

... well... after several visits he told me he was abused as a child and had anger problems and his wife left him briefly because of it... all while he's twitching and I'm scared to death and I'm twitching [dizzy] .

Animal sick on carpet is the worst. I don't need to say anymore- it is ten times worse when you are not feeling well.

Laughter is good for the soul.

LAX Mom, husband is deaf. Only when I whisper something can he hear. And usually if I am whispering I am saying something I don't want him to hear. My bad.

Oh how I wish we all lived near each other so we could get together on bad days like this.

I can't think of any funny stories, but hope you feel better soon.

Take care and God bless.

My four cats are now on the wet cd food because of the urinary tract thing with my one cat. Expensive. I have to keep going to the vet and buying a few cans at a time. I promised them I wasn't eating it.

It almost feels like they are wondering what I am doing with all of this buying it every few days. I

told my husband that I would have to take on a second job to pay for their food. He thinks I should take on a first job, first.

Funny stories....

My oldest sister thought she had a very bad bladder infection. Every time she went to the bathroom she got red pee.

So she goes to a walkin clinic and they want a urine sample.

She goes in,pulls down her panties, twists around and out falls her pink powderpuff!!!!

How it got in her panties she swears she doesnt know. But im hoping she threw it away.....

Gotta love my family. I can top anybody here. Should write a book.

I am for running away too...even if it is just a mini mind vacation.

Sending my imaginary limo over. The limo will have a team of people to take care of things at home while you are away....including packing for your trip.

So make a to do list for them.

Where would you like to go??

Oh I am sure a bad one would make an attempt too, Pam. Not that I would know the difference. My husband said I was breathing hard. This happens

when I sleep on my back. Usually it turns into a nightmare if I do. This should have been a nightmare. Where did the blond barbie hair in

front of my face come from? Crazy dang lyme. I keep hoping I will get my vision back in that eye. It's been 2 years this month that it suddenly went bad.

sickofthepain, don't loose hope lady. As soon as you get those SOBs bacteria under control, lets pray your eye will be able to repair itself.

The body is a miracle worker everyday for people.

Sickofthepain, map, randibear, Kam, kudzu
[kiss]

Kisses and hugs all around for you.

I laughed so hard at your dream SOTP. Sometimes when my eyes are closed, I get flashes of light with noise also, but mine are white flashes.

And the weird dreams, me too!

Always entertaining going to sleep.

And the cat food joke. hilarious!

Randibear-powder puff. That was hilarious too! I thought you were going to say she was eating beets?

Kudzu-how was the show?

Pam-you're right. Our bodies are miracles.

Kam-limo sounds great! I wouldn't mind a night time star watching tour. If the drivers could just leave the moon roof open, so I can lay down and gaze at the stars for the night.

Somewhere in the rocky mountains would be nice. I like the cool mountain air.

No, no, no Rocky Mountain air for me. Now this is sad but I would be on a constant tick watch in the mountains.

Now if it was frozen ground like today, I would take a walk. Come in, strip down and take a very warm detox bath and do a tick check from head to toe.

No, I'm a blue sky, breeze, sunshine and smell of the ocean lady.

Greta, I hope you are in better place today.

Pam

In the heat of the summer, when the pine needles are dry on the ground, that is my favorite smell.

I can hear the wind through the trees, and the sound of the lake water lapping at the shore.

I used to be a beach and ocean water gal also, until the sand flea incident last year. [Frown]

I got bartonella so bad from those sand fleas.

All my neuro problems started after that trip [Frown]

Sorry Pam!

Yes, those sand fleas ruined the beach for me too.

Maybe when I am well, (fingers crossed), I can saunter nairy fairy onto the beach with no bug spray.

But I doubt it. I am pretty sure I have an insect phobia now.

Except for ladybugs and dragonflies.
