Guest guest Posted August 9, 2004 Report Share Posted August 9, 2004 , Thanks. just drove out with the last of her stuff for their apartment. I couldn't keep the tears away. The pride, joy, " I can't believe she is doing so well " , slight fear for her, and the " she doesn't need me day to day any more " emotions swamped me big time. When she left she said, " I will call you tomorrow night. " . It will be a long 24 hours for us and a new adventure for . She works tomorrow too so she will be busy. Blessings and Hugs, Lynn Update Hi, Just a note to let everyone know is doing fine. Her left ear with the replacement permanent PE tube is back to normal aided hearing. The left ear is still full of disovable gauze. She has started the drops and on Aug. 26th the doctor will clean out the ear. He is very confident that her aided hearing will be back to where it was. It has been about 7 months since she could hear out if the right ear. Our biggest accomplishment is that yesterday she moved into an apartment with two other girls. They are in but not settled. lived in a dorm at college last year. She has switched colleges, switched majors and is excited about being " out on her own " . She lives about 45 miles from home and about 50 miles from her boyfriend. Far enough to be independent, but close enough to home if need be. Her college last year was 2 hrs. away. It takes me about 50 min. to reach her apartment now. She starts college at Lakeland Community College on Aug. 30. This sememster she will take Accounting, Micro Economics, Logic/Philosophy, and Computers. She is majoring in business and hotel management. She has her work cut out for her. She plans to work part time too. As Mom's do, I worry about her over doing and staying healthy. Blessings and Hugs.

Guest guest Posted September 13, 2007 Report Share Posted September 13, 2007 So, my birthday came and went without much hooplah which is okay with me. I don't feel any older and the day isn't the same since Osama Bin Laden became a filthy word in our country. I got 2 parakeets as a gift from my hubby, daughter, and son. They are blue and white and very vocal. It's hard keeping the cats away from them. Well, really just one cat, Charlie. The other cat, Cocoa, is pretty much used to them. She figures if they're in the house then they belong here and she leaves them alone. She doesn't even go after the squirrels that come up on the porch when she's laying out there!!! I had named them Hope and Faith for 9/11 but discovered that they are both males, so that won't work. I am now deciding between Pride and something(haven't come up with anything to go with it yet) or Bada & Bing (for the Italian in me!!!) I'd like to stick with the 9/11 theme, so if anyone has any suggestions to go with Pride I'd love to hear them. I've been feeling a little off for the past few days. I've had a migraine and been feeling sick to my stomach. My legs have been achy and I've been dizzy and have the tremors in my hands back. The weather hasn't been that great so I'm wondering if it's just that, the change of seasons? I started P/T on Monday and we're taking it slow. Did I already post about this? My mind is not working too well either. I was supposed to go today but my head is still hurting. Just wanted to catch up quick before I headed back to bed. Had to get Zack off to school anyways and get a few b-day cards out. A nephew and twin nieces!!! September is a big b-day month around here. Tomorrow is my 2nd appt. for the cognitive testing. Should be interesting feeling the way I do!! may here today about going to the city. If he does he will have to report by Monday. I hope steps up. She hasn't been very helpful so far so I'm not getting my hopes up too high. She did tell me last night that if I get approved for disability befoer she turns 18 that she will be eleigible for financial aid. She turns 18 in January. Not much time. Or is it before she graduates? Oh, I don't remember!!! GGGGRRRR, so frustrating!!! Well, I'm going back to bed!!! Maybe my memory will come back to me when I get back up, LOL!!!

I have had severe back and leg pain, my left eye is really giving me more pain then ever before, even to the point of wanting to wanting to cry. I am having angina pain almost every hour to the point of taking 2 or 3 nitro pills before it subsides. I can't concentrate, I can't breath. I want to sleep and sleep some more, but the pain keeps me up. I take a loritab and it dulls the pain for an hour or so. That's when I try to sleep. Sometimes, I think it is not worth the effort to fight this anymore. I went to the VA and the doctor said I need to be hospitalized so they can treat me with steroids under supervision. I went to my Neuro and he said take more pain pills. I can't take steroids at home because of diabetes and the side effects they cause. MY cardiologist did an EKG and said the same thing, blockage in my smaller veins nothing he can do. He won't put me in the hospital, same as the neuro. I have a call into the nuero again and try to plead my case. I am sorry for venting and feeling sorry for myself.

I love birds! That is so cool. I'd love to have a couple of canaries. One orange and a red one. I've never had parakeets before, but I'd love to have a couple. I love their colors. LOL...I like the names, Bada and Bing. How about Pride and Justice? Or Pride and Liberty? I hope you are feeling better and I am lifting you in pray.

Guest guest Posted September 14, 2007 Report Share Posted September 14, 2007 's two cents on birdie buddy names: Pete and Repeat... I like Pride & Glory.. or Pride & Joy... but Bada & Bing definitely is unique... I usually watch a new pet for a bit.. before choosing a name.. therefore... the Chocolate Lab we had.. was Hershey... (Cocoa was too common) the Great Dane.. after awhile became apparent from the way she ran.. Hop-Along-Cassidy.. she got Cassie for short.. (her first name was Daisy.. she didn't look like a Daisy) Buster Brown.. has now picked up Butter Brown rather than Buster... he's more like Butter.. unless he's in trouble..then he's Buster... |}onna Re: Update Pride and Glory?

I am now deciding between Pride and something(haven't come up with anything to go with it yet) or Bada & Bing (for the Italian in me!!!) I'd like to stick with the 9/11 theme, so if anyone has any suggestions to go with Pride I'd love to hear them.I've been feeling a little off for the past few days. I've had a migraine and been feeling sick to my stomach. My legs have been achy and I've been dizzy and have the tremors in my hands back. The weather hasn't been that great so I'm wondering if it's just that, the change of seasons?I started P/T on Monday and we're taking it slow. Did I already post about this? My mind is not working too well either. I was supposed to go today but my head is still hurting. Just wanted to catch up quick before I headed back to bed. Had to get Zack off to school anyways and get a few b-day cards out. A nephew and twin nieces!!! September is a big b-day month around here. Tomorrow is my 2nd appt. for the cognitive testing. Should be interesting feeling the way I do!! may here today about going to the city. If he does he will have to report by Monday. I hope steps up. She hasn't been very helpful so far so I'm not getting my hopes up too high. She did tell me last night that if I get approved for disability befoer she turns 18 that she will be eleigible for financial aid. She turns 18 in January. Not much time. Or is it before she graduates? Oh, I don't remember!!! GGGGRRRR, so frustrating!!!Well, I'm going back to bed!!! Maybe my memory will come back to me when I get back up, LOL!!!Hugs,Peggy Luggage?

Guest guest Posted September 14, 2007 Report Share Posted September 14, 2007 's two cents on birdie buddy names: Pete and Repeat... I like Pride & Glory.. or Pride & Joy... but Bada & Bing definitely is unique... I usually watch a new pet for a bit.. before choosing a name.. therefore... the Chocolate Lab we had.. was Hershey... (Cocoa was too common) the Great Dane.. after awhile became apparent from the way she ran.. Hop-Along-Cassidy.. she got Cassie for short.. (her first name was Daisy.. she didn't look like a Daisy) Buster Brown.. has now picked up Butter Brown rather than Buster... he's more like Butter.. unless he's in trouble..then he's Buster... |}onna Re: Update Pride and Glory? Bada and Bing! LOLOL Hope and Faith can still work, too. ) You did mention your PT and I'm eager to hear how it goes for you. I'm sorry you're feeling so lousy, Peggy. It's all so stupid, isn't it?

Guest guest Posted September 14, 2007 Report Share Posted September 14, 2007 Peggy, Some Parakeets.. will talk... not a tremendous vocabulary, but a few words.. I've never tried.. but my dad always said that you cover their cage when trying to teach them to talk.. I do know that you cover their cage at night.. or when it should be time for them to go to sleep.. (and they don't close their eyes when they sleep.. and they only sleep with half their brain at a time.. one eye is always open).... Now.. Joe, our Hahn's Macaw.. who is supposed to talk.. and does quiet well (even picked up a word or two he shouldn't have... when I'd stump my toe, or would give Roxie heck for biting him.) but he picked up... "mmmmmm goods" right quick.. might be something the parakeets would pick up as well fairly rapidly.. if as you're putting in their food dishes.. tell them.. time for "mmmm goods".. type thing.. word association... And I think you'll find that the noise level increases as the sun comes up in the morning.. and as it goes down at night... it's something about the "flocking" instinct... I think that's another reason for covering the cage in the evening.. that way it gets dark QUICK and it gets daylight QUICK in the morning... Unfortunately, around here.. I need a large car cover to cover Roxie's cage at night, because her cage is taller than I am!!! So we must endure the noise level.. lol... She wouldn't let her cage be covered for long anyway.. she's too nosey... Hope you enjoy your Birthday Buddies.. |}onna P.S.... Happy Belated Birthday...
