Goos Morning

How are you all today?

We're supposed to get some freezing rain today,but then they said we're in for some nice warm weather.I just cant wait!!!!!!!!!!! Im so looking forward to getting all my deck furniture out,being able to sit out there in the eveenings,cook on the grill,read the paper,just emjoy the outdoors.Can you tell im counting the days?!?!?!?!

Im still doing 2 mg of the sub,1 in the morning and 1 early afternoon,and its working fine.I think i'll stay on this til i see the dr in 3 weeks,then maybe go lower.See what he says.But its really going well.I hope so for the rest of you trying to wean off the sub.

Ive been busy getting ready for my grandduaghters 6th b'day party.Going to be a sleep over,i bought DVD bingo,DVD high school musical game,and several others to keep them busy.I am having a gymnastics theme,which she will love! Besides the pizza and soda,and of course the B'day cake(gymanstics...girl on a balance beam with her legs up...itrs really cute)im going to have a table set up for make your own sundaes.The girls will love that.Im really looking forward to it.Just hope they all spend the night,none wake up crying to go home,lol,then it'll be a long night!Oh,,,we're also going to play pin the tail on the unicorn and ive got a bag full of prizes,cheap little things,but stuff they'll like,makeup,lipgloss,hair ties,journals,etc....

So my weekend is totally booked,obviously.I hope its warm enough so they can go out and play a little.

Anybody got any real fun plans this weekend? I just told my husband,we need to get away for a four day weekend,i dont care where,it doesnt have to be far,but just AWAY!

Hope all is well with you.Take care~KIM
Goos morning Kim...can I come to the party? Sounds like loads of fun.

We are in for another pretty day here in the deep south...too bad next month it will be so humid a 5 minute walk outside will turn into a shower...

Dr put me on prednisone, Allegra and Flonase, says that this is most probably allergies...I hope this does the trick.

Where are the rest of the beaners? I have a potta coffee going on and it's hot,hot hot....y'all are on your own for donuts.
Janet,i sure hope it does the trick too.You have had so many ailments lately,i hope things get better for you soon.I get a cold and im like a big baby,i should be thankful,im pretty healthy and i dont have to take any medications daily.Im not bragging*knock on wood* im just very very thankful.And i pray it continues.

Sincerely,i hope youre getting better soon,nothign worse than feeling like crap,you just cant enjoy life.

Any plans this weekend?~KIM
Morning Beaners! I promised Ms. Molly I would drop in here this morning, and she isn't even here! LOL
How are you lovely ladies? Janet, I was RXed a Medrol pk. yesterday, too. Guess it is pregnisone (sp). Also on Alevox (a new antibiotic), and Allegra. Been on meds now for 10 days for strep and bronchitis. My next RX is going to be Chantix, I swear. Feeling this bad for so long has really made me think about smoking, and the harm it is doing, so I am going to give it a try.
Kim, the party sounds great! They will love it and have a blast! I hope things with your sister are better. honey. That's tough, I have a brother with similar problems, and he used to keep us all on edge. He still does the rest of the family, I hear, but I removed myself from the madness and don't keep up with all of them anymore. It sure helped me, and although I miss them, life is much better when you are not constantly being brought down.
I am out of here today for a hair appt. You ladies have a good one!
MJ, sorry I missed you. Just remember, imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. I love you!
Kim we have a crawfish boil planned tomorrow night. First of the season. It's so much fun to have a mound of food piled up ontop of the table. just grab and eat...I will try to remember to take a pic of the steaming mudbugs. Kenny and Jana will be here also...still adjusting to having a 2 year old around 24/7...and he's had the sniffles since he came home Sunday night...yesterday was pretty miserable for him....he IS the terrible two's!! LOL

Dylan is home, he was throwing up and pooping so Dad let him stay. Only problem is that he is taking ILEAP tests this week and will miss one today...I have to call the school in a while and see if something can be arranged for him to take it.

It's nice having Jana here, the housework is getting done thanks to her help...we are even taking on Spring projects like cleaning windows.

Carol!!! So goos to see you honey!!! Dr gave me 20 mg prednisone, I don't ever remember taking more that the mg (3?) in the medrol pack. You need to pop in more often!


Thanks Janet! I forgot to mention.......good luck with having a two year old in you home. I know that's got to be trying, but fun.
I have got to share this.....just looked out the window, and there is a fat little pig running around my yard. I am cracking up! No one around here has pigs, that I know of, so I can not imagine where it came from, but it is just hauling a** all over our field. It's hilarious! Guess I need to call animal control, but I doubt they could catch it. LMAO!
Have a great day, and feel better!
How cute! I've tried to talk my husband into raising pigs but he refuses...I guess I would probably get attached to them and not want to eat them.

goos morning kim,carol and janet!
no big plans for the weekend, i work sat morning then have an na meeting at night, sun church and then in the evening my sponsor has arranged for a sponsor/sponsee get together every last sun of the month.

edited to say...LOL Carol I LOVE little piggys(ask mikey)LOL
Also I finally got the last part of what you posted!!! Goodness what is amazing is its taken HOW many days to do what WE use to in one????LOL
Thank you for the lift up
I jotted you a line but Ill try to write more later...Love ya my friend
Moll,no,im not having an problems with the sub drop.But remember,ive onl been taking 3 mgs all along,so dropping to two isnt so bad.Next month i will drop to one and see how that oges,thats when it'll get trick im afraid.We'll see.

He 8 mg is awesome compared to what ou were taking!!! ou were tsking 32 mg if i remember right? That is a tremendouse difference.How are ou feeling at 8?Do ou take it all at once,or break it down?

Good luck on our new (paid) job! ou going to do wonderful!~KIM
I was at 24mg for geez I think close to 2 years,when I started to decrease I did 2-4mg less at a time.
Im holding pretty good at 8.Ill admit sometimes the chrons hurts more or I feel it more but I can handle it.
As for how I do it I get the 8mg tabs so I split it in half.4mg in the morning than the other 4 around 7 at night.I tried to take it earlier but Id end up with cramped up legs.
I think once I get settle in the job & stuff Ill try to go 2mg lower & see what happens.
Thankfully my Dr came through for me.See Medicaid has a new thing where they will only pay for 6mths of Sub,so my Dr went to bat for me & Im approved for 7 more mths.I think he plans on just keep doing that.He is really impressed with how far Ive come also.Hes been my Dr for 20 years & knows all Ive been through.
Yes with your dose I think it maynot be that bad.Even with your next drop it may not be as bad as you think...
molly


Thank you about the good wishes on my job,Kimber I cannot tell you just how it feels to be able to LIVE!!!!
Well all its time to start my day because even though Mikey will be home tomarrow & I know he'd clean up our place ,Ill feel better knowing I did it & got it done today.
I hope all the REAL beaners have a nice day & if I get a chance to check in later I will
love to all
Ms Molly
hi!
its soo good to hear from all of you this morning!
i am glad the goos is still around, thank you kim for starting it the last few days.
molly you probably could drop another mg with no problem, i have not noticed a difference YET! i am glad i am not alone in doing this, kee kee has dropped too!
good luck on your new job molly, it is wonderful to LIVE again, isn't it?
ooooh! arby's sounds good, i usually get a junior roast beef with lettuce, horsey sauce and arbys sauce and a curly fry and pepsi, they are a little pricey compared to my favorite wendy's! i get their dollar menu stuff chili, baked potato with butter and sour cream and small coke comes to $3.69. sometimes i'll get a choco frosty!
dairy queen is open! sign of spring!
i want to come to your birthday party too kimber, those girls are gonna have a blast! one time my neighbor had a beauty parlor party for her daughter. she booked appts with me for all the little girls, we did updo's with flowers in their hair, makeup and polished their nails! they had a blast!
well i'd better get busy here as my first customer comes in about 45 min. i already did the shower the dishes swept the floors, watered the plants, cleaned bunnies cage and fed her, fed all the animals, then i go to the endocrinologist for diabetes check up and blood work, ive lost 60 pounds!!!!! woo hoo! feels fantastic, i didnt even go on a diet! my dr put me on a new medication for diabetics called byetta, google it as they are thinking of putting people on it who want to lose weight and do not have diabetes, it is an injection 2x a day which makes my stomach empty slower so there fore i dont feel hungry, plus since starting sub i have no appetite either.
have a blessed day and remember God loves you! Julie
