Morning, I got up late , My Dr. gave me new medicine for my ache I have and have had for about 2 month now , he thinks I have Trigeminal Neuralgia and this medicine scares me I took one and then called the Pharmacy and she told me to only take one a day till Monday ( call my Dr. )instead of 3 a day and it made me LOOPY .. I go Tuesday to see my old Orthodontist, on Wednesday to get a MRI with contrast and x rays and blood work and they are making me a appointment with a neurologist . They will call on Monday....Can you tell I'm upset , This is so weird to me how this ache is on the whole left side of my face every heartbeat...I sure hope we soon find out what my problem is.....

June – Have a great weekend. Naomi – That is so scary. It’s certainly understandable that you are upset. Sending prayers for healing to both you and Trigger. Saw A Bronx Tale for the first time last night. What a great movie! Today will depend on the snow. I am about to leave for an earlier weight class as the snow is in the air. I have to take Charlie to the vet at 10 for his presurgical blood work. I’m hoping the snow is light until then. As for my locked room plans, we’ll see what we get. They are talking 3 – 6” with isolated higher. It’s not the number, it’s the wind because I am in a wind tunnel and the drifts can be a problem. Well, at least it’s a Saturday. Oh, and for the first time, the town is doing our snow removal instead of private removal. Who knows how long we will have to wait or how good a job they will do. I have more than half of last night's dinner left, so that will be lunch. Dinner remains up in the air but if we cancel our plans I have plenty in the house so no worry. LaDonna - I too plan to piddle around with this weather.

Good Morning!
Went to bed early so up and ready for coffee! COLD here but no snow yet...
My day will just be piddling around the house doing a few chores. I plan to make a pot of soup in a little while and bbq some thin sliced boneless pork chops. Will be mindful about weighing, measuring, and tracking!
June,sounds like you have a good plan in action. Hope you are nice and warm under those flannel sheets this chilly morning:)
Naomi, I am so sorry to hear about your pain. I sure hope you will be able to find a treatment that will work without making you feel sick. Prayers going up for you sweet lady. Not at goal yet. I have about 30 or so more pounds to go. Feeling like I am going to make it this go round:)

Susi, hope the snow is good to you and Charlie's preop prep goes well. That's great that your town is doing the snow removal.

Good morning June Naomi Susi, LaDonna and AWF. I slept in again this a.m. and it still feels so darn good. I had a good day yesterday...got in all of the GHG's and tracked every morsel that I ate. This part of my life I do have control over, so I'm going to take advantage of that. The only plans we have for today are to visit with friends later in the day.
June enjoy your game. Yes we CAN do this GHG thing. I feel so good knowing that I'm hitting those important targets!
Susi, I love that movie! In fact, my surgeon looks like Sonny LOL. When I saw him I cracked up! Good luck with the snow removal and praying that all goes well with Charlie. Keep us posted.
Naomi ((((Hugs)))) and prayers are going out to you. I hope they get to the bottom of your pain. Take it easy and take care of YOU. Good luck at the meeting. They are giving out updated materials but not real change in the program!
LaDonna we are having the same weather deal....very cold but no more snow. I'm fine with that part of it!
I'm in desperate need of coffee. Will pop in later.
Enjoy your day, all!

Goood morning, again....
Naomi..... sending you a big, warm hug Cannot imagine what you are experiencing! So very sorry that the pain medication had drastic consequences. I am with you, having that loopy- dopy feeling would have had me calling the dr or pharmacist. Glad that specialists were able to quickly work you into their schedules. At least you have a starting point now, but two months is a long time to have that constant pain wearing you down & worrying you. More hugs & prayers.
Am being active w/ chores for now. The swelling in my left foot & twinge in my left knee is almost-- but not completely gone. So I am trying to be cautious, but active. I have a tendency to push my body too much, so I am chomping at the bit a little. Not easy, but smart.
Susi- saw the natl. weather forecast-- that storm system appears pretty active & widespread. Hope that your city crews clear your streets as quickly as the private contractors did. Drifting snow just makes a snow day worse! Poor Charlie--another winter surgery. I obviously missed the cause while on vacation. Hope that your early morning activities went off without a hitch. Be safe as you deal w/ the weather conditions. You probably have more amazing foods or can whip up a more amazing recipe than most restaurants offer.
Ann--I joined you in the sleepyhead & ghgs ranks. Slept in and then chose to enjoy a few extra minutes just enjoying the coziness & warmth. Simple pleasures. LaDonna-- it's great, isn't it, to have your head in the right place to take off the weight in a healthy way and feel good? Hot coffee, soup, toasted cheese sandwiches.... bring on warm beverages and food!
Hope each of us has another great day!

Good Morning Naomi, my mom had something like that and I can't remember what helped her. The pharmacist is our best friend for explaining the effects of medication. I hope you get relief. Susi, thanks for the movie rec. I am so movie deficient. Ann, congrats on regaining control. La Donna, Pam, June, Bee have and everyone I've mentioned stay warm and safe this weekend. I need to go have breakfast. Woke up with a headache but Excedrin Migraine did the trick. June, I forgot to mention but Leo, my 4 year old grandson, is coming today and asked that I play music and we dance. When he was 2 I watched him a lot and that was one of his favorite things. I have 6 children's music cds. See you all later.

Morning All!
I am working on a project. We have 1 more Lady who needs the larger font workbook for the Bible Study, so I am sending chapter by chapter to the Lady who asked for it. Gonna be a busy day.
How - just be AWARE, get in that water conga line as I am sodium laden from my white chicken chili and coleslaw from yesterday. BUT I sure enjoyed it.
Hope AWF have a great day!
Naomi, praying for your mouth.

Pam-- vegetable soup is on the menu this weekend. Perfect for a weekend like this and a great way to "fill up." Haven't been smiling as my college team is down 2 touchdowns! But I smiled when I read your post. Thanks! Maybe half time adjustments will help.
Audrey-- glad that you headache is gone. Those are nasty. Aww... how cute that Leo wants to sing & dance w/ you. Lil ones bring so much joy w/ them.
Bee j-- sounds like you have a rewarding project. You are a blessing in the lives of others. Ha! Love when you eat something that is totally worth it! Life is too short not to find joy in life, including food & drink.
Naomi-yes, the long term medical issues mess w/ your head. More hugs
