Miscellaneous(part 3....or is it 4?)

[Kathie-K2]

[size=large]Holy CRAP Kathy........are you going to start talking like Patti about NOT TAKING MEDS.......geez.....it's not Cocaine!! If you have Alieve or Motrim it would be even better. And get that heating pad under your back. You should lay flat on the floor with your feet up on the couch to take the pressure off your spine. If you can't do that , laying on the bed with pillows under your knees is a good start. Laying on the Couch isn't going to help you much, because you're bending the spine right where it hurts since your head is up on a pillow and your spine is bent. Hope all this helps.
If not call me in the morning. OH a nice HOT LONGGGGGG Shower would be in order too.

I posted the recipe for Stoney Creek Coffee on the CC board. [/size]

So Kathy, did you take your meds? Now take it easy....... Your Tempur-pedic should help tonight also.

And yes, Tony and Kathy, the doctor does make funny comments, but the most important is to come back next year........ That I can handle.

Kathie, I'll go look at the receipe. Now where is the granola one. The Amish store was out of their Back to Basics that I like so well.

 

[PH8]

I did take the Advil..2 of them........but I just took another....sorry,but I dont like taking meds..most times they make me feel funny....

You sound just like my husband....take 3 advils........take a hot shower....EVERYTHING he said...........yup, he has had back trouble too.............

Nag.......nag.nag......all of ya!! (but love ya for it).. :loveya

 

[powderqn]

Kathy-I'm just around the corner...if you ever need anything, I can be there in a flash...Gary feels the same way...if you need us, we are just a call away...you should have my cell phone and our home number. Any time...promise you'll call...we'll be there.

Covered our in-ground citrus...put our potted veggie and citrus -won't plant until April because of frost- in the garage. Expecting temperatures in the 20's overnight.
Went to Outback and dinner was just so-so...I can do better...was a little disappointing...Gary's meat was way to rare, sent back once,but wouldn't send back a second time. Brought home leftovers for Brandy...today she's seven years old.

 

[MarciaL]

PQ, glad you are close to Kathy.... Wish I were.

I'm sure Brandy enjoyed the Birthday steak.

PH, you know we only nag because we care......:loveya

 

[sanjoseca]

Damn, PQ made the rest of us look bad. We all should have thought of offering real help to Kathy.

Hey, where is everybody?....it ain't bed time yet.

 

[MarciaL]

Good Morning all,

Sorry San, it was after my bed time.......

PH, hope you feel better this morning.

We are heading for Dayton (well, just south) to attend a Dinner/Theater. La Commedia. Lunch and play, Stand By Your Man. Story of Tammy Wyanette.

Be back this afternoon......

 

[PH8]

morning......

You guys are PRETTY special.........thanks for the offer Christine.........I do have your numbers programmed in my cell......

I know I could always call the inlaws too,but sometimes being alone if better...I'd feel like I should be entertaining if they came over.....

We had an awful time at Outback too(the one by Bealls,right??).I emailed and got an immediate reply and a free meal.................the 2nd time it was wonderful...........I think its a hit or miss thing at that location.......

Sounds like you have a fun day planned,Marcia......enjoy lunch at the dinner theater =huh

Yea Tony.....1:00 am is way past my bedtime too.............I was in bed by 10 last night.......


HAPPY BIRTHDAY arty Brandy!!

 

[Kathie-K2]

[size=medium]Hope you're feeling much better today Kathy.

I was in bed around 10 pm too last night. Usually I'm up later than that.

Have a fun day Marcia.

Tony, hope you keep busy over your way and stay out of trouble. Do you do any walking around your new neighborhood?? Or aren't you a walking type of a guy?? You could go and get Trousers and walk him every day. He'd love you for it and you'd get some good exercise!! Just a thought!!

Christine.........Those Outback restaurants must all be the same. We have HIT and MISS times at ours up here in Michigan. Haven't been to one in a long time because we found a Non-Chain place that char grills really great steaks and just go there. I'm not that big on RED meat, but when I have a steak I want it PINK and JUICY inside or I'll send it back. I do make sure to EXPLAIN that to the waitress when she's taking my order.

Patti: Hope you're behaving yourself today and TAKING YOUR MEDS 3 times a day.

Later everyone..........gotta get ready to clean this house!! Boring!! [/size]

 

[Breeze]

I keep forgetting to stop by over here! I had to go back to page 3 to read and catch up. You all sure have had a lot to say!:

Still not warming up around here - 41 and holding. I need to break out warm clothes one more time ... hopefully. I also need to abandon sandals and find some warm shoes and socks. What a pain!!!!

Kathie - I think there's been cutbacks made at Outback recently. I wasn't too thrilled the last time we were at the one near us. The food was just so so. There's too many other steak houses that do a better job these days.

 

[PH8]

Hey Pat------------did ya hear Lone Star went outta business?? Not suprised........we never cared for it........

Kathie---sounds like a fun day for you(NOT)......I have an excuse not to clean.....besides Dennis isnt home,so who cares??? =huh

Off to Publix I go........

 

[sanjoseca]

K2, I would take Trousers for a walk, but I have a real problem with taking him back home and leaving him.....he looks at me with his head cocked, big alert eyes and ears squared off....just pleading with me to play some more........he just tugs at my heart when I leave him alone, so I tend to stay away during the day when Angeline and Anthony are not home.

Feeling better PH?

 

[PH8]

Yea, some,pretty much.....................The pain in my back went up to my neck during the night...hurt to turn my head this morning.....but 4 advil later,I feel MUCH better,,,,,, (tu)

Poor Trousers........bet he would just love to have you stop by during the day.........but I agree,dont ya just hate those sad little puppy dog eyes??


Dennis FINALLY left Tifton,GA and is on his way home(3 hr drive)....got his new tires(all ten of them),a PM(preventive maintenance=oil change,etc) and his DOT inspection(which has to be done every 4 months).all he needs now is his a/c fixed(told him be glad its a cold spell :lol) and a new XM Roady....his broke..gonna bid on one on EBay for him..........after tomorrow 5 more truck payments and then its ours free and clear....unfortunatley, that $350 a week payment will no doubt offset the rusing fuel prices........Oh well, thats life...........


Chili's done...................about to make cornbread with it and noticed a recipe for a tamale pie on the package.......think I'll make that......

 

[Kathie-K2]

Okay, what is a XM Roady?? Somekind of Radio I bet!! =huh I'd look it up on Google, but I'm too lazy.

Aw.....poor Trouser. Maybe you could do it just once a week. It would be good for both of you!! Hee Hee

Suppose to get a few MORE inches of snow early tomorrow. Man oh man .....enough already.

Off to put on my "Lipstick" and get ready to head out to the funeral home. We sure won't be beating the rush hour traffic, but it's close by so it'll be fine.

Later.......

 

[PH8]

A Roady is an adapter you can use with your regular car radio so you can get satellite radio(XM,in this case).......

 

[MarciaL]

Hey all,

Hey Pat, so its 41 and holding..... Try 13..... That is what it was this morning when Carl went out for the paper and then I went out to fill the bird feeder. Then it was all the way up to 17 when we met the bus...... We knew quite a few people on the bus.....


"Stand by Your Man" was really good..... I always did like Tammy and George Jones together........ The only actor who was not good was the one who played Bert Reynolds....... One of the few she did not marry.... 6 kids, 5 husbands, she was one "active" lady....... And I got the idea, not a very happy one. George drank and she popped pills and left all her kids with MeMaw....
She later said, the only time she was really happy was on stage singing, then she felt loved.

Lunch, well, they served really good salad first..... Then the buffet was Sweet Potato Suffle, fried potatoes with onions, buttered carrots, fried green tomatoes, Pork w/sauerkraut, Ham, Hallibut, rice, corn bread, fried biscuits w/apple butter, cheese bread, Pinto beans, fried chicken, and then desert was served at the table. Cobbler with ice cream.... Oh, and I had a Death By Chocolate to drink. Ummmmm, Ummmmmmm, Good.
I have a stomach ache........ Wonder why......

Now San, you should go down and get Trousers at least once a day..... That is what a good Grandpa would do.......

Kathy, glad Dennis is on the way home..... No more word from Ruttie??? Hope she is sleeping today.....

 

[sanjoseca]

Another reason for not going to get Trousers is that we need to be really careful about possibly intruding on our kids lives. Being so close, it could get out of hand......but it's working fine, we hardly see each other unless it's planned.

OK K2, why get dolled up to go to a funeral home....aren't the people you go to see a little out of it and would never notice?

 

[PH8]

THAT was terrible Tony!! Tsk! Tsk!! (Actually,I was gonna tell her to skip the mascara cuz it wont last)......



That was some Southern style lunch you had Marcia..........Paula Deen would be proud!

Richard wrote me last night....patti was up and down worried about her boys......but her mom was gonna come take them to school....she is in pain.............cant use her new box for 2 weeks.....till her staples are out and the swelling is down.......I sure hope this makes her feel better..she deserves it.......................

 

[powderqn]

Thanks for the mini-update on Patti. I agree...hope this works for her.

Puppy eyes are the worst, big sad brown eyes...Brandy does that so well, especially when we want to put her out for the day. As big as she is, she thinks she is a house dog. Except at night when it's 30 degrees, then she wants to sit outside with the door open.

It was the Outback by Beall's. Took your idea and wrote to the corporate office about our experience.

Thank goodness, tomorrow is Friday, it's been one long week. Suppose to be nice this weekend so we may take the small boat out and do a little fishing.

 

[MarciaL]

Also hope that Patti feels better soon. Did not know that the box will not work for 2 weeks......

Kathy, the lunch was supposed to be like Tammy's real life favorites. I'm supprised that they did not grits and collard greens.

Then tonight I tried Kathie's coffee. Real hot coffee, some orange liquerer, Bailey's Irish Cream and heavy cream..... Sure warms the insides up....... Have to find the Butter Shots...... Next time by the Liquor store.......

See ya all in the morning......
