Yes, LOL. It's been hard to type with stitches in the tip of my left middle finger. If you touch type, which I do, that's the finger that hits E and D. Only two of the most commonly used letters in English... . It's been all I could do to keep up with school assignments (all of which have to be typed, of course.).

The stitches are out as of Tuesday, but the fingertip is still pretty tender.

Just wanted to say thanks to everyone for the "motion sickness" commiseration and advice. It was just awful and I'm only starting to recover about now. I felt nauseous and woozy the entire day yesterday and today. Low blood pressure was the culprit. A little strong coffee helped turned the tide, literally and eventually.

Right now: catching up with the wild Internet life that happened while I was gone.

You could try the Dragon Dictate app on your iPad, it is free and might save you some pain when typing your essays. The is surprisingly accurate at taking dictation. Hope you feel better soon.

Keep your eyes out for a large squirming package that purrs!
1. Stock up on kitten chow! Lots of kitten chow!
2. Don't wear sandals unless you enjoy having your toes chewed.
3. Tie all the blinds' cords at least 6 feet high
4. Velcro all your cabinets & drawers shut.
5. Clear off all the windowsills
6. Rent a hotel room for you to escape to for rest.
7. Stock up on Band-Aids.
8. Put fresh batteries in camera.
9. Be prepared to have your "cuteness" meter overload!

She's a handful! Literally & figuratively!

cute kitty. I got some sleep last night finally after Mr M decided to spend most of the night with his furry back to me. Unlike prior nights when the prickly side was disturbing my back! owww Despite all that I like winter.

@DixieGal Still waiting for pix of your new place. So we can decide which bed we want when we come over for a sleepover party.

We are waiting. This place has been on the market since 2009. Now today, either the seller's or our realtor seems to want a bigger commission. Suddenlyafter all this time, they have a "multitude" of offers, and we might have to raise our offer to be competitive. I said no, and we will take our chances.

They are supposed to choose a buyer on Tuesday. Whatever. If we don't get it, there are plenty more condos in this city.

Meanwhile in the hotel, you can have my double bed, and I'll make Tim scooch over for me in his bed.

Hmmmm.... there are those who say that the pomegranate 'was' the apple that was offered... Personally, I always thought it was a joint.

I saw Adam in the Garden with a reefer in his hand
Asked him if he'd care to share his stash.
He said "here man, have a fling. Go and take the whole damn thing.
Eve will soon be here with some choice hash!"

A little knowledge is a dangerous thing...

I gave up on trying to brush my hair long ago. Somehow it never comes out right, no matter how many times my hairdresser explains it to me. You could always just dry your hair with your head upside down to create some volume, and then put some mouse in it to keep it that way.

I'm trying to get some work done, but I just can't seem to wake up today. So instead I'm reading this thread and trying to catch up on everything I've missed

Thanks Betty! Nice to hear (er...read). This is the first day in months with not even a bandaid! I'm doing reasonably well typing without one but I'll probably put something over it for work tonight.

Just finished lunch - after running errands. The most notable of the batch was sending my daughter money for meals on the train. She and the baby will be here next weekend!!
