Chrissy Beahan said...

Hi all

Belle, Just to explain pet,, ME or Myalgic Encephalomyelitis or newly called Chronic Fatigue Syndrome,,
sorry for all the long words,, I have had it for 8 years now and no its not just a UK thing many millions of people contract the Virus when they have has a serious Illness preceeding it and they dont start to pick up in health as they should for one reason or another, in my case it was a mixture of Pneumonia and a very low Liver count after having a Hysterectomy that didn't go to well, seeing we are being a little gorey tonight I thought I might join in too.

wvgal_dana said...

That is funny Nilla the site I play cards at. In the name I use there is mist-----

oh my two minds at times

wvgal_dana said...

Chrissy that is what in here our Birdgirl has.

wvgal_dana said...

Did eagle_eyed sharon say she was leaving???
Sharon come out come out where ever you are and play.

wvgal_dana said...

lmbo=laughing my butt off (oh I wish that was true) anyhow Nilla I use the mist with 2 other words. Nothing sexy; as you seen I not so sexy.

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Didn't leave. Been working a little, sneezing a lot, blowing my nose a lot (TMI, I know), had to pour some more tea, talk to my mother who is rather confused today and now I am back at my computer.

Bird Girl has fibromyalgia I think, not ME.

belle_wv said...

OK I understand now Chrissy - thanks for the clarification - never heard ME, but have heard of CFS and Fibromyalgia - that's what bird girl has I believe, my neighbor has it, as well. Very frustrating indeed - she feels great for a bit and tries to do too much because of things that didn't get done during a bad spell, then it flares up again and she's miserable... I do hope you don't feel too badly most of the time. {{{{hugs}}}}}

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

I use shurnlea for everything. Don't know why I didn't come on here as shurnlea. HMMMM. Wonder why?

wvgal_dana said...

I'm correct for the error of my last comment.

belle_wv said...

Speakin of cards Pinky - who in here was asking about canasta? I recall someone asking when I was in the midst of trying to get my project finished... my mom and I used to play canasta all the time - I loved that game

wvgal_dana said...

Is Sharon your real name.
Pinky isn't mine.

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Mei and Tai are wrestling again. I love Tai!!!

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Glo plays canasta!

I don't know, is Sharon my real name?

wvgal_dana said...

No not me Belle but when I was a teenager. Across the street lived a elderly lady. She was very lonesome after her husband died. I use to bake cookies and take over to her. She taught me how to play
canasta. I thought it was so exciting that she had (remember that was years back) a card shuffler. Now those card shufflers are everywhere. After she past there was no one to play with so I have forgotten how to play.

MITS said...

Mei and Tai are at it again, rolling all over the ground.

MITS said...

OOOPPPSSS!! They both ran inside.

NillaWafer said...

Pinky you ply cards on paltalk??? I went and looked at the site and i think it has changed alot.. I havent been on there in a long time but still keep in touch with friends from there..I inda think paltalk is now like Mplayer was and got to big for its britches..

wvgal_dana said...

No Nilla I play; it's been awhile because of coming in here. On pogo.

MITS said...

WOW!!!did you just hear Tai bark???

NillaWafer said...

When i came on here all we actually had was AOL..ICQ.. MPLAYER.. YAHOO nad not like todays sites.. Mplayer was the first to get sound and video cams in rooms...and Mplayer closed.. Icq WAS a joke.. Oh we did have a free phone service we used to call all over from comps but then they started chargin..So we all went to Paltalk i even worked for them for awhile teaching people the site..

MITS said...

Thought you were going to rest, NILLA-MIST?

MITS said...

Tai and Mei are down at the pool.

MITS said...

Now thery are out of it.

NillaWafer said...

Yup Mits i think he did bark.. i have heard Mei bark whe he got on her nerves.. Did you see him in the water??? Oh Mits did you read where he touched the electrical line over at the edge of the grounds and look now he is over at the wall and there is one running thru it

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Mits does Lun Lun's cam freeze up on you a lot?

NillaWafer said...

Grandson is here watchin tv came for something to eat..lol

wvgal_dana said...

I read it they said he didn't get hurt. Although Mommy came over to see him when he touched it.

NillaWafer said...

My kids know how much i love the pandas and told me while in hospitol they were taking me even if it ment pushing me in wheel chair or getting me aHovaround..lol

wvgal_dana said...

Sharon it did you me today. I have been there alot because if she is pregrant then she might have baby cub early.

NillaWafer said...

wvgal_dana said...

Does most in here use their real names?

wvgal_dana said...

Belle are they still working on the water leak?

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Mits don't but I don't know about anybody else. We could really be incognito you know!

Sharon Lea Farley is my name!!

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Maiden name is Crisco!

wvgal_dana said...

Well most would certainly think the name "pinky" isn't real. lol

wvgal_dana said...

wvgal_dana said...

Ok now that I got more wax. I got to go look for a hairless kitten to put up. Then there be no more "pinky" all gone.

Just Vicky said...

NO MORE PINKY????? Mercy no!

wvgal_dana said...

Hi Vicky Il how's it going?

NillaWafer said...

Suz the pictures on Momsters is great.. My TinkerBelle was with me 16 years before her illness. Just gota make atrip over there to zoo..

Just Vicky said...

WEll I am concerned about a hairless pinky!

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

I just looked at Suzanne's pictures. They were great.

Now, I have had a few cats in my life but their names were so glamorous - Mousetrap, Trapcat, D-Con, Phydeaux (okay that one was good), Spudsy, Pale Rider, Pretty Little Yeller Cat (who loved to get in the box with new puppies we had that were half beagle/half dachshund), and Garfield, to name a few.

Think it was Nilla that plays the Castinettes. This is probably a great day to ask that question. I am going to try to follow that URL to Denbuury Farm.

LOng day but got lots done. Would say my final Project is at 70 % unfortunately the last 30% requires me going in whenever I can get to the computer wtih the 2 data bases I still need access too. Kind of a pain really caude can't count on any particular hours.

TTYL Suppertime here...well actually Teat time first!!!

belle_wv said...

Teat time? I think that's what Tai has... LOL

Crisco - I bet you got teased in middle school! Giggles

Nilla - ChopperBalls??? Was this dog around when you had Mr. Ten Lbs. ?

My nap was delicious!

Guys are gone from fixing the water line - I hope it is fixed and that they just didn't leave cause it was after 5...

I am not the Crisco kid but that person is in here, gonna take an eagle eye to find it though lol.

NillaWafer said...

ChopperBalls came from amovie this junk yardman had a dog and when the kids would break in he catch them and say ChooperBalls they would runn.. Yes 10 lbs was around then..lol Did i mention the hampster we called Pooda?? Ate into my new leather couch..lol Ken has went to K-Mart to buy me the smokin patches.

NillaWafer said...

Opps i ment to say add NOT ASS Sorry

belle_wv said...

Guess it is those small words - teat and ass LOL

Yepper I know who the crisco kid is - Sharon did you have any brothers with the same last name? Oh my... Sorry... Neighbor down the road her last name is Semen - she teaches too - her maiden name - she's older than me and never married - if that were my last name, I'd go to vegas and marry teh first guy with a decent last name and divorce him/keep the name LOL (I know I could just change it doin paperwork - but gotta make it a BIT traditional and somewhat of a challenge)

belle_wv said...

NillaWafer said...

can i do it?

NillaWafer said...

i know i can

NillaWafer said...

yes yes yes 400 i ammmmmmmmmmmmmm

movin said...

Good TGIF to you all...

Nilla...

Glad to see you are back amongst us...I was reading the end of the last thread and saw some comments about quitting smoking; so I thought I would put my $40/carton worth in. [They may be more here in California now, they keep adding "goodie taxes" after the smokers.]

Anyhow, about 4 1/2 years ago I was having a terrible time breathing, went to the "Walk-in Clinic" and was diagnosed with Congestive Heart Failure. [Fairly good now with treatment].

I had been a pretty heavy smoker for many years, and I definitely didn't want to quit. But after a few months of treatment, the Specialist told me there wasn't a lot of point in him treating me if I just kept making it worse..... You might have heard the same things.

After several attempts at quitting cold-T, I still hadn't gotten it done totally, so I tried (Doctor OK'd it) Nicoderm patches on May 30, 2002...took my time on the "steps" (1-3), and I haven't had a smoke since that day!

I had some strong cravings at times, but in recent months that has almost gone away too.

So, in spite of some bad comments by people I knew, the patches worked like a charm for me...worst problem I had was keeping the thing stuck to my arm instead of my T-shirt, which I solved by putting a piece of tape or bandaid over it.

It's worth a try, Nilla...might seem a little expensive, but it's a lot cheaper than 2 cartons of cigarettes a week...even at Sam's Club.

Good luck,
Jim

glo said...

Good night all. Glad I know who got 400 dizzy dame and all

NillaWafer said...

Hi Jim yes i already got the NicoDerm patches but i got the number 1 and it says if you dont smoke atleast 10 aday start with number 2 ? If you have read i had 3 heart stents put in this wk for 90% blockages in my LAD... LEFT ANTIOR DESCENDING.. sure Sharon will correct that.. havent had a cigarette since monday early morning i think.. Ok brb

belle_wv said...

Whooo hooo Nilla gets the whole ball of wax - she can even things up LOL

belle_wv said...

Nilla - don't start with that high a dose - that's more than your body was ever used to - and with being smoke free for 4 days already (or is it 5) you will send youself into a nicotine shock! Yikes

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Good to hear from you Jim. We have missed you!

Eagle-Eyed Sharon said...

Nilla, where are you?

NillaWafer said...
