Morning, am running late today! I woke up in the middle of the night to some horrendus noise, so Tinker ran to the front room window and started barking and all of a sudden I knew what it was. A skunk started crossing the road, and must have gotton into a fight almost right outside my bedroom window and it sprayed! EWWWWWWW! Needless to say, the next few hours trying to sleep was he]]! Anyway have a good day!


Oh no! Did he get you or any of your stuff?

I think it was Maureen's dog who got sprayed eons ago and she asked us all what to do. In the end the poor dog got washed in (I think) Dawn soap, tomato juice, and citrus mouthwash.

Hump Day is here, have no fear! And its starts the two-week countdown to my move to Seattle. w000000000t!



NO thank god, my whole house smelled bad tho, i glad that kamal was at work cause he would have puked!

Brnidokiegurl - I hope you are given the strength to go through this with your mom. Mine is 77 and my dad is 79 so I know it's around the corner but whenever I try to picture it I can't see how I'd react, i.e. whether I'll be the strong one or whether I'll be the one constantly sobbing and falling apart.

Last night was the first time that I had to wait up for both daughters. They both had a batmitzvah to go to and I picked up my youngest at 11pm! blink.gif She came home, had some water and went straight to bed. The oldest had a sleepover thank God 'cause the shuttle didn't get back to our town until after midnight. Hers had the ceremony at the temple and then a shuttle took them to the Hard Rock Cafe where the party was. What a life! I don't remember having that much fun when I was their age! mad.gif

Somehow I need to get motivated to do food shopping since it's back to work for me and back to school for the kids next week.

How much does everyone else spend on back to school supply shopping? I mean strictly supplies they are required to bring in...not clothes, etc. Between the two kids I think I spent around $320! blink.gif I think this was the most expensive supply list so far.


actually im not strong, im the only child and my dad is already gone. My daughter is a sounder rock than i am i try, but cave.....BUT time i got down there this morning she was sitting up in her wheelchair. The prob was (gunk) for better word had gathered call asperation due to foods going down the wrong (whatever they go thru) last time this led to phenomia. So last nite they did the suction thing, got her meds going addding some oxygen and she was doing completely better. She was up and went to the dining table to eat with her other friends and actually ate....so i feel we made it thru another day. We know this is coming and nearing time but guess she just isnt ready to go down that road just yet

$320 for supplies? WTH did you have to buy? I don't ever think I spent more than $50 for 2 kids. thats just crazy!!!

Well its Sunday, its our day to lay around and do nothing. Kamal has woke up with a back ache and is miserable. I just wanna sleep! It got so cold last night, I had to close all the windows. Looks like summer is gone!

Two days in a row a weighed myself and it's true - I have reached my goal!

I have to admit, it's somewhat anticlimactic though. I know I already revised my goal once, but I think I could stand to lose another 5 lbs. Wadi thinks I'm a little crazy though. I have to agree! goofy.gif

Hi Terrie! My best friend was one medications for the same thing and it also had the same affects. She got up to 230lbs and she's 5'2". It was the most I'd ever seen her. We really went on a journey together in the past several years with her medications and hospital visits. I've learned a lot about bipolar from her as she was one of the more sever cases. Eventually she went to the state hospital which is where you go as a last resort. After that she came back and has completely changed to someone that I knew before all this happened. Unfortunatly the only way I know how for you to lose that weight is to stop taking that medication or reduce it to a lower dosage or replace it. She was on something like 18 medications at one point and now she is down to just a handful of medications and she dropped her weight all the way down to 160lbs. It's like having my old best friend back. She's woken up and is more alert and she talks constantly.

If you like I could see if she is comfortable with me giving you her contact information so that you could discuss medications and experiences.

Olivia



that would be good olivia i will pm my info to you. and if she wants she can contact me.

I need to lose weight!!!! I saw my pictures from Arab fest and almost puked!!! the problem with losing weight for me is this: my doctor has me on some meds that make me gain weight or at least it seems like it. I was on some stuff that i did lose, but then it stopped working. I have to take the meds, its for depression and bi-polar. Sucks, but i need them. I wish i could just stop using them all together and lose this weight. So if anyone has any ideas for me, HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

always pouring here, but yes now shes out prancing in the backyard with ahmed like nothing is wrong and she ate her medicines good (in her food) i thought i might have to give ahmed some of the meds when he found out the cost for the dr visit whistling.gif



Morning Mena! Judy, am happy your doggy is doin better. The first week Kamal was here, I had to take my lab into the vet and it was over $100. I though Kamal was gonna die! I now try to keep as much as I can about costs from him or he has a heart attack!

Hey Maureen, I'll trade ya! biggrin.gif I'd love some rain.

Day 6 of fasting here. Can't believe how well and quickly it's going, alhamdulillah.

Congrats to all the ladies who've received positive results on their interviews, I'm really happy for all of you. rose.gif


Everyone have a fantabulous day! star_smile.gif


sure!you can take all my rain and when the snow is here, you have that too! tongue.gif


*cough* if you give ur snow to anybody..it'd better be me....!!! whistling.gif I take rain and hail too!! ANYTHING other than the hot stuff!!!

Tamara...I'm off Fri-Sun next week so Friday afternoon sounds just fantabulous to me! Bring the hubster so I can bring my boys and we can break fast together biggrin.gif We really like a place called "Hafez" on Westheimer and (i think) grey falls??? They serve fantastic and realistically priced persian food! The best lamb skewers around!

My favorite is Dimassi's and I'm totally up for that if u are! It's a Jordanian buffet and nom nom nom sooooooooo good. Hubster doesn't like it coz the chefs are mexican and he swears that just due to their ethnicity....the food is not "real Jordanian"...so if u wanna go as a group...I'm already there!!!


I saw Dimassis in a book that I had and I showed it to Adam and we wanted to go eat there too! Adam works all those nights at 10pm so Im not sure if he can make it or not, but I will mention it to him. My sister and I would come and she would probably bring her 2 little girls.


The best Dimassi's (imho) is the one on Kirkwood and I-10. (and they have [or at least had] a really cool fish tank) Maghreb is at around 750pm so I think he'd have enough time to eat, chat, and get full biggrin.gif....
I'll bring hubster and my lil'man. I'm so excited!!!

Jax....u up for another page in "jackies journeys"????
