VP, both of them have been on Facebook. They're fine as far as I know - no affect to their houses.

Thanks! Sounds horrible there, glad they're fine.

Good evening ladies!

I just did something so nutritionally wrong...bottom layer cookie dough, mini oreos then brownie batter on top in my heart shaped muffin pans.

I have no excuse other than my cubemate and I saw a food porn picture of it the other day and have mentioned it several times since. I figure now that I've had it, I'll get over it. And I can give some to my cubemate. It only made six.

If by wrong you mean so, so right, then yeah. :up:

We made these a few weeks ago. OMG, so good! Eddington's Peanut Butter Eggs - Alizarine Glad I waited for Sarah to be home.

Other than that delicious, delicious mystery meat hot dog from Target
oh...and that bass player a few years back
it's probably the worst thing I've ever put in my mouth.

They are very tasty though. I'd save these for the most extreme PMS emergency.

We followed the recipe exactly. Had one later that night, and it was good, but the next day, I was way more impressed, it became more crumbly, like the real thing. :drool:

Sorry about the job news. :hug:
 
hi vp! :hug:

doing pretty well.:)

more progress w my arm exrcises past few days...esp triceps which helps w wheeling chair and hopping w walker.

Also mt OT -i asked- since i need to balance my vit K /keep it at levels i have had here; i have to be getting frozen broccoli, green beans, asparagus....

So I asked my OT to take me to the theraputic practice kitchen...to start handling stuff in a safe, practical way. So i did good! Have one or two more things of that type to try.


And my OT also took me and some other delients outside to do some of our exercises, where we have rolling lawns and tall trees to look at! I hope -if we are under the same weather system your weather was a glorious :hyper::heart::hyper: as ours!

78F - 80F dry/sunny >>> swoon!

Holy shit. I'd heard of making chocolate chip cookies and putting oreos inside them....but you've taken it to a new level. Totally want to make these now!


Iiiit's gardening day again. Planted some beans in the community garden, basically sat around the rest of the time and said hi to the kitty there

i wouldn';t expect since you've been ssoooo busy etc

accident 4/6...surgery 4/19......hospital late 5//13....return turn to rehab 5/18.....to now (5/31)
Click to expand...

Oh wow, it's been that long! What is the projection for walking without your cast, now? Sarah ended up being 13 weeks, but we were told that if she'd had a break that required surgery, it would have been quite a bit shorter...and obviously no surgery is preferable to surgery.

You know I heard cavewomen would make that when menstruating. It was in 6th grade social studies book so it must be true.

Yep, I had one of those. Mine was an Irish boxer.....and not the one I wish it was....

Ha! Ancient homeopathic remedies work the best.
I kind of like the idea of a menstrual hut. Give me a pile of Cosmos and People, an iPad, chocolate and leave me alone for four days.
 
I've also noticed this other nasty little thing the past few years, and i suppose if I'm laying it all out, here is as good a place as any. :huh:
Mid month, ovulation time, it's almost like I experience a mini-PMS for several days, and it really sucks. Anyone else? :|
 
Yes!
I just recently found out that you start retaining fluid around then because it takes water to make a baby, apparently. I don't want a baby, so it's pretty annoying.

And you want TMI? Gitcher TMI right here, ladies...
I had my first EVER UTI this past week. I'm cured now but damn! I was so smug about never having had one because I'm all about safe sex and I figured non-safe sex was how you got those.

Yay! That I'm not alone, not that you have it too.

But I have the same thing as I do during PMS time - fatigue, and yet I sleep badly (wake up a shit ton during the night), water retention, mental fog, on the verge of rage, etc. I'm all like "WTF, body, isn't one week a month bad enough??" Fucking sucks.

And...

UTIs are not just for the sexually active. My daughter had a series of them when she was around 7 or 8. And I know others who young daughters have had them.
 
yeah i remember it - how long it took 4 sarah....:hug:


i was just going to google the average length of time for recovery.

so far haven't found it but bere's a very interesting comment from a triatheloner who had a bad ankle.... and then my comment

Exercise and Walking: Your doctor will dictate. I'm assuming you're not doing any weight bearing activities right now; be prepared for the adjustment once the doctor clears you for putting weight back on it and you can start working with a physical therapist. I was surprised that I couldn't just immediately start walking like a normal person again. It took time to for me to relearn this and be able to walk again, and then another long stretch of time for me to be able to walk pain free. I actually used a cane for awhile. I felt like a cartoon supervillain.



i hope i don't have pain THAT long....but on the 3rd day either at home after accident, in hospita 4 surgeryl or or 1st time in rehab....i think it was after the initial accident i had a dream where i was walking around and thot to 'myself" or sauid to someone < in dream> that i was sending my walking experience top my outer ( sleeping's self brain) to help keep nueral conections for walking.


i try to visualize once a day at least some where where i have walked as tho i had on3-D "video" glasses and was "walking"/tracing one of my regular routines. Even standing on m,y elevated subway platform doing some gentle qui-gong exercise with one leg/foot about a foot diagonally in front of me... you shift weight back and forth (other arm movements go w it) So as to keep these motor-neurons in more primed shape

Ohhhh
You know, I pretty much have one good week, a few days after my period through ovulation, them my boobs get sore and I get stabby. I've never been a good sleeper, but I never thought about it having a pattern related to the cycle issues. I'll have to track it.

I never knew that! Luckily the doctor's office asked me a list of questions then sent over the Rx and didn't make me come in
to pee in a cup for them.

:hug: It was hard for Sarah. When she first went to PT, they were like "you haven't tried to walk on it yet?? GASP." Um, what the hell? She's following orders, and doesn't want to hurt herself. The second appointment, when she finally had confidence to try to walk again, after three months, it was so emotional for her, she cried. There is a very real fear of hurting yourself again, that you have to get past.

I work with a lot of peri and menopausal women. They bitch constantly, but I want to say "my life if no cakewalk, either, bitches!" And I hear you on the one good week thing, that's EXACTLY what I feel like. :scream: I sometimes wonder if this is what a tween would feel like, dictated totally by hormones. Grrr.

And yeah, UTIs can strike anyone. They can be sexually related, but not always. It's like a cruel joke by nature. At least if you're getting some, you can be all "I'm suffering, but at least I'm getting laid!"
 
Cranberry juice for a UTI and yogurt for a yeast infection. As an 'athlete' I have to mindful of yeast infections during the summer.

and my TMI

I am horny as hell around my ovulation time. Being that I'm not on BC but we are not actively trying for number 2, I have to track my cycle. My husband knows that time of the month and well done/or written FF will totally get me in the mood.

Okay, if I never wanted Bono to come in here to read before, yeah...that goes double for now.

poor sweetie...

i won't be surprised if i start crying at various points along this process once i start being able to put some weight on it.

my ot said i might be able to ghave either a rolly walker (with both my feet down) or a cane by the time i leave depending on when...

what i've read so far 6-8 weeks to heal...then a few montrhs varies with some assistance devieces, some ,lilimping, 3-4 months for normal 3exercise/activites, may take up to 2 years :)ohmy:) to fully heal ( maybe as a sports person?)
