<---I'll stir fry you in my wok

<--misses you guys
<--just popping in to tell Melissa that MIL sounds like she might have had a TIA.
<--DM had one a while back and that was the primary symptom
<--are there other episodes of her saying strange things?
<--she should get checked out by a doc
<--good luck
<--popping back out again
 
<---Tells Suzanne not sure if she has said such bizarre things before but will definitely mention this to DH...Thanks!
 
<--- is back from shoveling.... and shoveling and shoveling and shoveling
<--- is happy to see Suzanne popped in to say hi:)
<--- also wants to know what Em gets at the book fair
<--- confirms that Emily sings the Humpty Dance every Hump Day and <--- dances along:p
<--- thinks you probably had to be there
<--- would love to be a SAHM but 1. can't afford and 2. would probably go bonkers:p
<--- might go close all the blinds and curtains so she doesn't have to look at the snow that's still falling
 
<---wonders if Melissa's MIL takes any meds that could cause problems?
<---also knows simple things like urinary tract infections in elderly may cause confusion
<---hopes a solution that is good for everyone can be found
<---'s FIL had Alzheimers and how hard it was when he moved into a home
<---is glad Shelley was able to stay at home and do upper body workouts all day
<---is jamming to Jimmy and having a nice day at work with favorite coworkers today
 
<---Tells Robin that she takes Fosamax and is on oxygen...thinks a TIA makes good sense and is possible
<---Thinks that even though she is not slurring and has no paralysis...her symptoms are indicative of low oxygen regardless and we think a doc visit is in order
<---Says DH is calling DF on his cellphone and telling him to get his rear back to UT ASAP because MIL will NOT listen when it comes to going to the doctor
<---Says this state is horrible when attempting to get medical attention for someone you are not married to...you must have a medical power of attorney if the patient refuses treatment! UGH!
<---Thinks that FIL must step up and get back here...so frustrating.
 
<--Pops back in to wave hi to Suzanne and Liann!
<--Tells Liann and Evily that <--'s staying at home was a result of <--not making enough money to put two kids in daycare. Daycare is SO expensive, and writers don't make a lot of dough -- at all.
<--Says while <--LOVES this life and wouldn't trade it, <--had much more "quality" mom time when <--worked because <--savored every single moment with Oliver (this was pre-Henry), when I was off work.
<--Says daycare molded Oliver into a very social and smart child
<--Will put Henry in a program this fall so he can experience the same social settings and learning experiences.
 
<--is popping in for a bit
<--send Melissa hugs,support,positive's vibes for her MIL
<--agree's with Emily about Alzeimer's
<--fortunately has never lost anybody to that horrible disease but did see the movie notebook(not trying to be funny;-))
<--Wonders what Emily plans on purchasing at the book fair?
<--needs some clean recipe books
<--may have to break down and buy toscas new one.
<--Waves to everybody <--missed
<--needs to scoot
<--did do UB on PH and had a blast,<--is glad its over though;-)
 
<-- knows that posted on this thread in the morning but cannot see it
<-- has to http://smileys.smileycentral.com/cat/3/3_8_14.gif or has to admit that <-- is spacey or has lost her mind
<-- can only pop in now and wave Happy Hump Day
<-- says you guys are chatty today

<--- just wanted to say "HI" & wave to everyone
<--- is doing okay... still a bit sore but feeling better every day
<--- still doesn't feel like doing anything physical
<--- is just resting & recuperating
