omg no worries haha. I hope you had a great day!

Oh yes!! I forgot about Hamda!! :O Thank you for reminding me! ❤

: Have you started watching "Yashahime: Princess Half-Demon?" I binged every Inuyasha episode a couple years ago, then started Naruto before I got sidetracked by FMAB, Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann, Fairy Tail, Azumanga Daioh and Bleach. I'm currently waiting to see if any more of Bleach is going to be made available for my streaming service (which is lousy because I live in a very remote part of my state and I at the mercy of a local wifi hotspot for all my internet connections.) I was surprised to see another Inuyasha product and it looks interesting. I don't know when I'm going to get back into Naruto, I just might have to start over.

: as a general rule, I leave all living things alone, although crickets and grasshoppers are an important food source for my kind. I find it wonderful that there are folks that can care for the small things of life and I honor that in you. And thank you for encouraging me in trying to crochet. That's really sweet and uplifting. And yes....Poor Weldon. He does have it hard putting up with the likes of me. The thing is, he's been doing it all my life. I wonder what keeps him sticking around? He sure is a silly weasel for that.

....He does like canoodling however....

: :) Oh, my feelings weren't hurt in the least, I knew what you meant, I'm just fooling around. You know that I specialize in self-deprecating humor and that I have no problem poking a little fun at myself. I'm glad the word "canoodle" tickled your fancy. And I know that I do tend to go on and on and on and on...from time to time...i[/i]

: I cannot imagine the basal joint surgery. But my Author Mark complains a lot about his basal joints, especially after his carpel tunnel surgeries. I think he overcompensates for the loss of grip by gripping more with his thumbs and therefore is stressing those joints more. Did the surgeries benefit you?

: Starting with a Masters and going into Nursing sounds like a very good idea and I'm very happy for you. It's wonderful that your boyfriend is going to help you. As a healer, you have my very special admiration for taking on this most blessed craft.

...and on and on and on.....

and on and on and on....

Quiet you! No comment from the peanut gallery!

I sure did it was painful to even pull up my own pants, I couldnt open a gallon of milk plastic container, holding a cup of tea or coffee was a 2 hand project so I didn't spill. Basically anything requiring good hand strength was painful which was just about everything. But I cant lift heavy (more than 20 lbs) things, I dont have the strength for it now. But that is minor to me, my hands dont hurt constantly anymore. Initially surgeon wanted to do the carpal tunnel surgery, and then do the trapezium removal surgery per hand. I told her, I would prefer if my hand has either surgery, they are both done at once. Otherwise, each hand was going to be having 2 individual surgeries and 2 individual recoveries. I told her I want both surgeries done at once, to each hand. So my hands would be recovering only 2 times, and not 4 times. She wasnt happy, because she usually doesnt do it that way. But I got it my way, because as a patient I have a word in what happens to my body. But I liked her and her work, when it came to second hand I could have got done sooner, but waited for her to come off maternity leave. Painful wait for hand that needed the surgery, but it was worth it.

Thanks you guys! It means a lot that you are all here to talk to.

You make a great point. I guess being around the medical environment since I was young (my mom being a nurse, and now a FNP), I take for granted that I understand most medical terminology and have my mom there to explain things I don't understand. I am really looking forward to taking this on, even though I know it will be a challenge. And it will take more time that I prefer. I am just so ready to be back in the workforce, but I know that this opportunity has a lot more options and availability.

Just got this from Major Drills:

I did have it checked out, yes. The verdict was that I jammed it and it likely dislocated in the process, as my joints so enjoy doing. Things like that heal very slowly for me, especially when it's a joint that is harder to exercise.

I very much appreciate your way of living as well. People often forget that we are all a part of the same ecosystem as all of the other animals around us. (Humans in particular often simply forget that they are just that: animals.) Insects have evolved with their place in the ecosystem in mind, meaning that they lay hundreds to thousands of eggs at a time with the biological knowledge that some or all of those eggs may be lost to the elements or another creature's lunch, not all of the eggs that survive that may actually hatch, and of those that hatch many may not make it to adulthood. Nature has worked to perfect all creatures, great and small, to a point where each species is given the best chance of continuation so long as nothing disrupts their place in the ecosystem or food chain.

In other news, just in case you had somehow missed it, Weldon loves you very much.

Is it too late to respond to these? Is it? Oh, well, I don't hear anyone saying it is so here goes: - hey ya battle buddy - bestest battler :) So wonderful to see a comment from you here. :D well, if you don't make them yourself, I will make them for you! :) They are just too cute!

Waves around to everyone in the room :)

- thank you Cie!! Love them :) Your HA is so pretty!!

BHH 475 wiz tokens My last tier is now at 292/300. So not happy I have to keep remarking about my status for BHH.

NEVER qould i EVER want you to purse your lips and NOT talk (O((HHHJUGHS)))) i LOVE hearing about what is in that fuzzy brain you have lil pipsqueak!!! My dirty mind...when i can pull it out of the gutter,,which by the way is its HAPPY PLACE..so hugs loves n stories my dear!!

I have seen that show suggested for me! I will have to check it out! It looks like it is really good and I did like Inuyasha. :D I am currently mainly just watching Naruto, but I need to watch more too. I recently picked up some manga, because when I have downtime at work, I read. It is so nice. Sometimes I can finish one manga a shift. It is so good.

glad you liked them :) Don't wear them around the doggies....they might chew them up! swishy hugs and kisses :) I thought you already got the achievement.

Oh I did! For some reason, I checked on achievement page it showed 289, I think and I didnt have the forum title that I earned either. I made a ticket, submitted comments from lair talking about it. One comment was from back in March 2016, but apparently that isnt enough to prove anything. I dont know why they can look back to see my activity for going to BHH. I still go multiple times a day, and they should be able to see that. I am being pro-active this time, that is why I keep posting in lair every time I get an item now, and status on last tier. Lets see how that can be ignored! If I dont get it, I will contact Keith directly.

so sorry you have to go through all that and I really hope you get it resolved one way or another.

hello my precious my fair maiden,,your beauty preceeds you and you are far lovelier that be be told!! i am amazed how i am ready for the next event,,i havent posated much DURING the evensts beause i fo them frm my friends notedn=boo or the friends gift lists,,BUT ESTHER should be here any day now riht???

Vesnalia is almost here, and before we know it we will be busy tending our gardens, picking flowers and making new bouquets. We will be getting excited about all the new things to come. Before that happens, I wanted to have a quick pillow fight with friends that have made me laugh, helped me out, and given me advice, sometimes not even asked for, and just well, been here, ya know? So, I am gonna do this now because if I wait for the flowers, I might knock over a vase, crush some petals or worse, forget to water. That being said, I will now start tossing pillows:

because I know you won't hesitate to throw one back and then toss some more around the room. because you just want to toss something at me sometimes. because you need the pillows so you can lay down and read and then tell me if the book is worth reading. just because I haven't interacted with you in like FOREVER. - wherever you are - ask FabulousViolet, pillow fights just are not the same without you. because when I met you, you lived so far away from home that I wanted to toss one to you to remember those days, and our chats. and because you guys inspire me to laugh - escpecially when Hetty is dressed like a Ham. I have to toss you a pillow - sea shells just hurt too much even tho we both love them. I promise not to hit any LIPS! just to see if you are here my friend :) because you too come to mind when things get tossed around. because you are always inspiring and are always so kind to everyone. because you probably need a pillow to scream into over BHH.

Well, this is just a start - pillows aren't cheap (wait - they are? Okay, maybe I am the cheap one) so I should go restock.

I seriously do feel like screaming out of frustration because it’s not right. I don’t take what I don’t earn, and won’t lie to get something here. If you have to lie, it makes a person a liar and a cheat. Another thing to annoy me here, forum signature and now this.Ugh

catches the pillow and gets comfortable Yes, it's been a long time. I've been pretty quiet here lately.

seems like just yesterday we were up watching TV and laughing. Satire - right :) Miss you and yeah, noticed you have been quiet so figured a good, soft pillow might be a fun thing to get tossed at ya :)

Aw ....hugs.

...oooh what a fine pillow...I was going to throw it back but then I put my head on it...it's a keeper! :)

- what happened to your forum sig? One time my beautiful pic that made for me was taken away because of the size. Thankfully Frieda helped me put it back smaller...I really like that pic and missed it for the short time it was gone.
