No need to call anyone, doc scarred me!!

Maryville, TN(Zone 7a)

Oh Betty, Hugs to you, you have us all so worried.

Glenview, IL

Ohh Goodness Betty, Sending gentle Armwraps and lots of healing prayers.
Yes, you can do rest...Thank God you got that appointment!!
...P.S. I hope your not alone, someone to check on you.

Pat, sending Prayers and Armwraps your way too, so sorry your going through some terrible time.

Thanks about my Craft room. I am enjoying the space... most everything has a place! The old corner in the Great room is so empty now.

Yikes today is just a dark dreary day, however I am glad it is rain and not snow!...Took down all the ornaments last night, will take down the lights today. Pack Christmas away except village and snowmen in the window.

Well I hope you all stay cozy warm and rest well.

Lyndonville, NY


Oh dear heavens!!!! Bessie Lou!!! Told you from day 1 to go to the doctor!!!
Now you are a hot mess!!

DO NOT be bending over and picking up things either. Anything that causes pressure in the head. AND be careful in and out of the tub.

I have had a few hectic days here and am behind reading.

HUGS to Judy...big arm wraps. I am in same boat as you with that issue.

And now I have empty nest. DS came home Friday and announced he found
a friend to stay with and was moving out on Saturday!!! Yes...miss him like crazy but this is GOOD as he is 10 minutes from his work.....not 1 hour drive in this weather. Really truly am proud of him....Now to keep me busy.

Pat thinking of you and praying all goes smoothly today.

Yes Not my monkey....not my circus is one of my FAVORITE sayings.
Learning to live it is a bit harder...but doing better.

Barb....we had that cold, I am so sorry they sent it from here to you.
Today it is 32....but a winter ice/snow mix is moving in. Stay put and stay warm.

Waving to all.....packing a bag to be on call for miss Bessie Lou! NEVER MIND
Buffalo for awhile....you do NOT need that drive.

Debbie

(Barb) Manchester, NH(Zone 5a)

Bless you Debbie. Betty I'm thinking of you and hoping you are really resting. I won't care if it is in bed or on the Chesterfield as long as you aren't doing much but watching a bit of TV or snoozing!!!!!!

Victoria Harbour, ON

Best I mind my p's and q's as Debbie knows where I live..lol
Am behaving, on the phone most of the day re calls of concern and I told you so's 🤕..couch is my best friend..I actually figured out how to get the Canadian blog design onto use and into the sewing machine but I've been good, another day to try it out.

Debbie, I agree about not doing simple things as well..bought a new mayo jar, tried for the life of me to try and open it and I could feel it

What a terrible day, if it brings on freezing rain later nobody will be moving anywhere.

Glad that Shane is closer to his work, would be more worrisome wondering how he is doing on the road.

I emailed my neohew's girlfriend who works in midland but lives an hour north of me to come spend the night, be safer..haven't heard from her so who knows

Maryville, TN(Zone 7a)

Good idea to have someone stay with you Betty.

Victoria Harbour, ON

She didn't call so guess she ventured out on her way home.

(Pat) Kennewick, WA(Zone 5b)

Ben got transferred today, I confirmed he is safely in Sunnyside SNF.

Victoria Harbour, ON

That is good news for sure Pat, less stress for you, you will feel better when you visit and see him settled in. How did your trip to work go..blizzard all day and now raining, omg what a mess it will be.

Dianne, Sharon told me breakfast television want to do an episode icon Inuk before he goes to Westminster in a few weeks, I will let you know when it will be on.

Head is giving me the whatfor and yes didn't do a thing, been in bed since afternoon
I should try to darken the screen on iPad, it's soooo bright

Oh my Betty what a gorgeous dog. Please let me know when City is going to show the clip.

Now Betty I am sitting here wagging my finger at you........ Do NOT do anything other than the absolute necessities. Have you heard back from the Neurosurgeon ? Don't be surprised if he calls you tonight.

Snow all day now it is freezing rain. Oh joy !!

Pat good news that Ben got moved safely. I can't remember how far is his new digs from where you live? Sending positive thoughts and prayers.

The TH will not be walked tonight. They would rather stay inside the house where it is warm.

Stay safe and keep warm
Dianne and her TH

Maryville, TN(Zone 7a)

Betty if you're having pain, I think you should call for help. At the very least you shouldn't be alone.

(Linda Kay) Amarill, TX(Zone 7a)

Glad to hear Ben finally got transferred.

Betty, I agree with Karen, please call someone to spend the night to keep an eye on you.

Inuk is beautiful.

northeast, IL(Zone 5a)

Beautiful add for Inuk!

A little concerned that I'm the first one here this morning and not Betty! Praying all is OK.

Glad to hear the transfer finally happened for Ben. Hoping this will make it a little easier on you, Pat.

(Linda Kay) Amarill, TX(Zone 7a)

Let's hope Betty is sleeping in.

Glenview, IL

I hope Betty is just sleeping in too.

Pat, glad to hear about Ben, now maybe you both can catch a minute to rest.

Quote from Bettypauze :
Morning all, call me lazy, slept in till almost 9am
Havent heard from hospital re next scan so I called, had to leave message on recorder, hoping they call back soon so I know that is behind me.

Thought I'd get some fresh air his morning and go next door, they've opened a bakery/variety store and even do meals, but the drive and roads are a solid sheet of ice so unlike me I won't take the chance and go..falling is not what the doc ordered.

With all this rest I am feeling better, yes I've a headache, just one that is annoying, nothing like the weekend, little pain over my right eye but not dizzy so all is ok.

Might go downstairs and finally see if I can embroider a piece that I put together as a label for the Canada quilt..as long as it doesn't frustrate me it will be ok..if it does then it will wait for another day

Glad to hear you are getting some rest Betty. Listen to your body, and rest when you need it.

Glenview, IL

Oh good to see your resting.

Victoria Harbour, ON

Caleb called, he had left clothing for me to add bling to for the next theatrical performance March 2nd, told me I had plenty of time ,, well apparently not, they are doing photo shoot Wednesday so he wondered (not knowing I'm having health issues) if I could have it ready for the weekend and he would pick it up, if not ready he would wear as is for the shoot then bring it back so the sun is shinning big time through front window and I'm hand sewing white braiding to the pants..tomorrow I'll try for gold trim onto the coat

It's relaxing

Go for scan at 1:45 today

Lyndonville, NY

I don't like you driving Betty....especially in the weather!

Still having a fit you flew home on the plane with a brain bleed.
Damn lucky you are alive!!!

Maryville, TN(Zone 7a)

Really shouldn't drive Betty, danger to yourself and others. Must be someone you can call.

(Linda Kay) Amarill, TX(Zone 7a)

Betty, does your family know what's going on?

(Barb) Manchester, NH(Zone 5a)

Dear Lord - Please take good care of our dear friend. She is such an inspiration to so many and is beloved. We trust her to your care. Amen.....

(Linda Kay) Amarill, TX(Zone 7a)

Praying with you Barb.

Amen!

Victoria Harbour, ON


I'm back, and no wouldn't drive if I thought I wasn't up to it... Yes family know and are calling constantly..I rest better when alone otherwise I want to keep whoever is in the house company, much like you all I'm sure.

Scan operator said results will be sent to emerge doc and my doc likely tomorrow a.m. Unless something is seen as critical.

I went to my doctor's office to let them know the situation so they know to call me with report but office was closed so I will call early in the a.m unless something is amiss

going to lay on couch now, picked up macdonald..

(Linda Kay) Amarill, TX(Zone 7a)

Thanks for checking in with us and keeping us updated. We do worry about each other.
Get some rest.

(Barb) Manchester, NH(Zone 5a)

Thanks Betty. I feel better knowing that the family knows. I'm sure they will be keeping a close eye on you.
I got a wild text message from Stacy. She told us Sean is going to be a Dad!!!! We almost lost it..... It is a school project and he is bringing home a robot baby for one night. He has to take complete charge of it. Mom is allowed to talk to Sean about it but everything done for it has to be done by Sean. Stacy said it even cries in the middle of the night!!!! My comment back was "Take lots of pictures!"

Victoria Harbour, ON



Omg Barb, I can just imagine the look on your face when you read he'd be a dad.. Kids here had same a few years ago, great experience for them.

(Linda Kay) Amarill, TX(Zone 7a)

Oh my! That must have been a shock. Sounds like a good idea to teach the kids what it is like to raise a baby.

(Pat) Kennewick, WA(Zone 5b)

I called the SNF today and they had Ben up and dressed sitting in a wheel chair. He put on his prosthetic leg and that is the first time in 3 weeks. He will be getting therapy 7 days a week, physical therapy, occupation therapy and speech therapy although not all 3 every day.
the facility is an hour away on good roads, not so sure on THESE roads. We still have a huge winter mess. More snow predicted and then warmer middle of next week which will likely bring flooding.

(Linda Kay) Amarill, TX(Zone 7a)

Pat that sounds like he is doing better. Please be careful driving on those roads.

Victoria Harbour, ON

Sounds upbeat apart, big improvement for sure..wonderful news..

Was in a sound sleep, lightning and the loudest clap of thunder woke me from a deep sleep and scarred the bejeebers out of Ziggy, power went out for a few seconds but stayed on..rumbling like crazy with heavy rain..does Mother Nature not know its winter??

Now to try and get back to sleep. Big sigh

(Linda Kay) Amarill, TX(Zone 7a)

Morning everyone.
Betty, I inhope you were able to go back to sleep.
Going to be another beautiful day here. Already 65, but we have 50% chance of showers.

Victoria Harbour, ON

Morning,

Terrible night of sleep..kept waking up every hour or so..finally got up at 7 and did my texts 'I'm ok" and just been sitting..called doctor's office, receptionist said the scan results were back and she would have doc look at it and call me, so waiting for that.

Who gets rain thunder/lightning/rain here in the north half the night?? Strange weather..didn't look at temps this morning, not as lucky as you Lindakay..perfect weather for me 65-70

(Linda Kay) Amarill, TX(Zone 7a)

Praying for good results on your cat scan.
Stay on the sofa, maybe you will get comfy and take a nap.

Victoria Harbour, ON

Went downstairs and put a piece re the label I made for the Our Canada quilt, it's almost done..because of individual alphabet wording you have to be there to press on scissors, no energy there, just watching machine do its thing..going ok though, sequestered Ziggy after yesterday's embroidery experience.

Many calls this morning but had to say can I call you back, don't want to miss doctor's call, all understand

I bought about 6 dresses like the outfits I wear when I was at the flea market, through one on and a jacket made of same fabric, look all dressed up (making me feel better) with no place to go 😛
