Beyond rehydrating, you know what helps me feel better? Olives. Straight from the jar.
In high school after I would cheer, I would go to the store a get a jar of olives. Works for me too.
I'm still waiting to hear about my motorcycle part.

Money. It all boils down to money. The title is another thing. I have experience as a team lead but without the title all I can honestly claim is the training. If I went back to them as a team lead I would be making at least 2.00 more per hour, plus the experience in management would help for the next job. Currently with where I'm at, I'm just a temp.

I will do 4 weeks of treatment, one treatment a week, but I am feeling optimistic for the first time in a such a long, long time.

Glad to hear you are feeling up. My best Grams used to say, "you get used to hanging, if you hang long enough." I always feel like that about my long term health issues and when suddenly you begin to feel better it is such an awakening.
I recently went off a drug that has made me sick for 15 years. I feel like a completely different person.
Hope you continue to feel relief!
AZRedHot
08-11-2011, 10:09 AM
Thanks, Lil--that's it. When I was telling the pain people my story, and how long this has been going on, they could barely believe it. But when you're in the middle of it, you think that eventually you're going to turn the corner, so you keep at it, and suddenly, years have passed. You don't realize it until you tell someone else that it's been so insanely long. But having just a few days of some relief has brought me back to myself. I realized, "Hey! I AM fun, relaxed, and positive...I remember now." I thought that had been lost forever; it was just buried under pain, exhaustion, and the depression brought on by both.
Glad to hear you're feeling better, too! Wow! 15 years is way too long.

So glad to hear it. Navigating the medical industry is enough to enrage even the most placid soul, especially, I imagine, when you're a mom and it's your baby you're trying to help. Keeping my fingers crossed on all counts for MHS2 and your family.

Went out to a place called "Wildlife Prairie State Park" yesterday to do my walking. Got in about a mile but it was threatening rain so I stopped briefly at their gift shop. Sure enough, I came out and felt a drip or two, so got in my car and started home (about 25-30 miles). Then, the floodgates opened. Traffic on the Interstate was down to 40 - 45 mph. Got to Morton, it let up a bit and I thought I was going to get into the house without getting too wet. Ha! Just as I opened the door the clouds let loose again. :(

I just watched The Time Tunnel 2002 pilot episode.
If you plan to watch this, look away, as this is a major spoiler.
The plot centres on an intervention team sent back to WW2 to save the future.
They go back in US army clothing. Two of the team are women, one a Negro.
No-one bats an eyelid, even though there were no female frontline combat troops in WW2,
and even more visibly, combat troops were segregated.
Is this sanitising history, or ignorance of the same?

I suspect that by sending back the team, they necessarily altered the space-time continuum such that they changed WWII irrevocably, including the acceptance of heretofore banned combat personnel. Time travel: it'll fuck things up considerably.

I saw this miller/moth fly into a spiders web and it started struggling. Then I saw the spider come from the other side of the web and start attacking the miller. It took 20 minutes for the miller to give up. The miller was over twice the size of the spider but the little spider carried that miller across its web like nothing. Was kind of cool to watch.
