Oh, wow, so am I! What's your favorite routine? I'm addicted to "Obstacle Course." My usual routine is to warm up with "Rhythm Parade," then "Obstacle Course" until 30 minutes have elapsed and I'm drenched in sweat, then some yoga. I had given up exercise ten years ago after a nasty neck sprain; my husband is thrilled I'm doing Wii.

Yeah, right. I can just picture the warnings on the labels: "Not to be sold to minors. Available at your local sex stores."

making sausage gravy....yum!!!

I just finished (along with my husband and son) shoveling 2 feet of snow from my drive way and walk ways and from the 3 cars in the driveway.

The worst part is that it is still snowing and they are predicting another 8 inches. Thank goodness I have a REALLY big bottle of ibuprofen!!

We did try to "finally" buy a snow blower (which my husband was against the idea) but the local hardware stores were all sold out yesterday morning.

If they weren't so darned expensive and if I had a clue which one was a good one, I would have gone out and bought one without him. We like to make big purchases together so that we are both okay with it but I'm REALLY tired of shoveling snow!!!

Waiting to hear if my Uncle is dead or not. Mother***cking old age! If I believed in a God I'd be shouting at one right about now. As it is I can't curse nature, it's indifferent!!!!

Lots of pain there, Moejoe.

Hard to know what to say here.

Except I hope being able to rant here helps in just the tiniest bit. You know everyone who reads it is sending your their support whereever you are.

Hang in there.

I should have posted in the vent and rant thread, oops

I'm okay with death, as is my uncle. I don't believe in an afterlife, or headstones or funerals; ridiculous notions one and all. I'm just pissed that I'll never see the man again. He is and was a gentle man, a pacifist, and at 83, still curious enough to use a computer. That's something that I don't want to see gone from this world.

desertgrandma · 02-06-2010, 01:50 PM

Why are men, so blasted stubborn?

Another wonderful night in the ER. Oh, he's fine now, but why did I have to hear him tell the doc that he's been having this pain and trouble catching his breath for a 'few days'?

Especially since I'm always asking "you doing okay?" and his standard response is "yeah, I"m fine!"

And of course, xrays and blood work showed nothing. Just a slight inflammation, so antibiotic prescribed.

Stupid hospital was full of sick people! AAACCCKKKK!!!

Patricia · 02-06-2010, 01:51 PM

Moejoe, we're all thinking of you and your uncle, and hoping for the best.

Patricia · 02-06-2010, 01:52 PM

And the same goes for Desertgrandma and her husband.

No.........I think you posted in the right place. Or we both posted wrong.

Its about what we're feeling now.

Whatever. I'm groggy from lack of sleep. Just ignore me for a while.

I wish there was a best, I really do. He's slowly dying, has been for the last week and a half. Just a matter of time and waiting. Waiting.

Earlier on I was listening to his favourite singer, Deanna Durbin, and her version of Nessun Dorma, which had the most apt lyrics I have ever experienced.

None shall sleep tonight.

pshrynk · 02-06-2010, 02:14 PM

I am sorry for your loss, MoeJoe. The loss of the presence of loved ones is a hard part of life here on Earth.

phenomshel · 02-06-2010, 08:32 PM

I'm so sorry MoeJoe

. And DGma, I know what stubborn is. I married an Irish Chicago boy!

As for what I'm doing? Now I feel kind of guilty, but maybe it'll cheer MoeJoe up some - I'm waiting for my new ASUS T91MT convertible netbook to charge so I can play with it.
I made what I hope is the best compromise currently available for functionality and portability. We'll find out after a few days of use.
