Julie,

Good for both of you on the weight loss.  I'm on the second week of drinking the shakes twice a day and haven't lost a thing.  I've done very little cheating.  I did have breakfast over the weekend and kind of shook up the routine but didn't eat overally much.  I figure if I can stick to the shakes 5 days a week it should make an improvement but....alas....nothing yet. 

What is the kidney blast for Veronica.  I guess that's a term I haven't encountered yet.  When it comes to ETN or allergies I'm picking up new information every day but the other body systems are still in the dark for me.

Big test today so I'm off to study. 

Take care and be careful on the roads.

Kim

Hi Kim,

Good luck on your test! 

Keep hanging in there with the shakes - surely some weight will start dropping pretty quickly now, with being on the 2nd week.  :)

We still don't know the time for Veronica yet.  The procedure is actually called lithotripsy kidney stone procedure.  Hopefully the laser can blast the stone into smaller crushed pieces to make it easier for her to pass them.  If that doesn't work, they have other methods they use.  Thank goodness the laser usually works.

Take care and I'll talk more later!

Julie  :)

Julie,

Oh yes, now I know what you're talking about.  Why does Veronica seem to have this problem repeatedly? 

How was your weather last night?  There were storms and tornado watches all around us but other than some wind and lightening we got through the night. 

I don't have the results from my test yet but it felt to me like I do okay.  More on that later.

Hi Kim,

The weather wasn't so bad here as a couple of days ago.  I was worried about you up there when I heard about that tornado and the damage in Harrisburg (I think that was where?)  How close are you to there?  I have a friend about 3 hours from Branson, MO, and she was scared to death hoping it wasn't headed their way, and worried about family members there.  They were okay, though, thank goodness.

It ended up Veronica had a bi-lateral lithotripsy.  She had stones on both sides.  She has to collect pieces passed so they can evaluate these.  The last ones were calcium and oxylate (sp), and she has had to cut her tea pretty much out.  So why these now?  Hopefully we'll know more later.

She's pretty sore today and is out today and tomorrow, along with the weekend.  She's on percoset when needed, for pain.  I've made her drink a lot of light colored juices and water.

Hope you are doing okay.  Thinking about you up there!  Talk to you tomorrow!

Julie  :)

Julie,

Hope Veronica is feeling better today.  Poor kid. 

Harrisburg is quite a distance from  us.  PA is a big state and especially from East to West.  We are on the far upper NW part and Harrisburg is about midway between NW and the Eastern border.  It's about an 11 hour drive.  We are closer to Pittsburgh/Erie and the lakes.   

My daughter in WV really was getting scared though as the tornado activity was all around them. 

I guess March came in like a lion. 

Kim

Kim,

You are right - March roared in pretty strong!  And there's more bad weather happening today and heading our way, as well.  Alabama and TN are getting it pretty rough.  I'm glad your daughter is okay.

Veronica's in some pain and still quite sore, but she is such a trooper.  She never complains, so when she does say she hurts, you know she hurts.  She's resting right now, and is on a pain pill, which is helping some.

So glad it's Friday - I know you must be!  Any plans?  Or catch up.  Both here.  We have a friend who is turning 16, so we're going to her "party" so-to-speak.  Dinner, movie, maybe bowling (not sure yet on that.)  She's such a sweet young lady.

I'm glad the tornadic activity missed you.  I was thinking about you!

Julie :)

Julie,

We escaped the bad storms again but I know it was bad south of us. 

Catch up today.  Cleaned this morning and am about to hit the homework again.  I've been banging away at several of the quests again today too. 

Bob is between PA and OH today picking up karts and parts.  He leaves for Orlando again in the morning and will be gone two weeks.  This is the last of the two to three week stints for the winter.  The regular job at the local track will reopen in April. 

I'm applying for an internship under the Surgeon General's Office in DC.  Bob is encouraging me to go for it.  It's unlikely that I'll get it but if I did I would spend 3-4 weeks in DC.  I'm putting in the application today or Monday if I need some input from one of my instructors.

Glad Veronica is feeling some better.  Tell her I said hi and hugs. 

Have fun at the party/bowling. 

Kim

Hi Kim,

The party was changed.  The weather was so bad here.  It's still raining pretty steady tonight, with some minor flooding happening.  There were a couple of tornadoes within a couple of miles here.  Someone managed to get a picture of one of them - they included it on the local news.  There were a couple of other pictures, as well, of some flooding happening.  I don't mind the rain tonight; just glad there will be no more tornadoes tonight. 

Veronica's in much pain today.  She took a pain pill.  Then later, her back was spasming in the area where the stones were/are, so I rubbed her back for awhile and she took a muscle relaxer.  I have the heating pad if she wants it.

I'm glad you got to catch up today with some things.  Hey!  That's wonderful that you are applying for and internship in DC!!  I really do hope you get approved - that would be a neat experience!  Let me know!

Hope you have a super Sunday!

Julie  :)  ((Hugs))

Dianna,  You've been busy as usual I see.  Sounds like you have more work in store for yourself too.  I have one of those electronic cigarettes too.  Wish I could quit all together though. 

Congrats on the new nephew.

Julie,

I hope the weather is better today.  Poor Veronica. 

Bob left this morning and is in Georgia as we speak.  I'm still dealing with the ringing in my ears.  I'm going to soak in the tub tonight and get some more homework done.  Been playing games on FB way too much today.  Kicking self in butt right now.  Get busy Kim!!! is what my foot is saying. 

Later. 

Kim

Please let us know about your daughter.  I hope she's okay.  Sorry you have to postpone your teeth getting done - I hope your pain won't be too bad.  Congrats on your new little niece!  That's wonderful!  Hope you have a great week! :)

Hi Kim,

I know how addicting those games are, lol!  When I got worse a couple of months ago, I had to take a break from the games - I didn't feel like doing anything and I think I was a tad burnt out, too.  I'm beginning to get back in the loop a little at a time, mainly with the 2 Ravenwood/Ravenskye games.  I'll get more involved, I promise!

You are having ringing in the ears?  I hope everything is okay.  How are you doing lately?  I hope your son and Bob are doing well.  Still nothing from Randal. 

Veronica is still off tomorrow.  Her back is still spazzing bad in that one area where the stones were and seem to be all moving around and out.  I'll enjoy the company with her being here and she'll enjoy me being home with her!

Hope your Monday goes smoothly and well for you!  I would like to maybe call you or you me, but I have hesitated because I know how busy you are. 

Hugs!  Hope the ringing in your ears stop.

Julie  :)

Julie,

The ringing in my ears has been going on for well over two weeks.  I think it's a sinus infection but I don't want to spend money on the doctor unless i can't beat this myself.  If I'm not better by tomorrow I'm going to an Urgent Care.

You may certainly call me.  Evenings are best after 6.  Especially this week with Bob gone I have more time to talk. 

I ran myself late this morning so I'm cutting this short.  If you get a friend request on FB from Mugwump that's me.  I started a second account so I can gift myself when I need something bad on the games. 

Later my friend.
