Oops, I was wrong. Ceres, the Texas-sized dwarf planet, is in/near an asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter.

Good morning, Beachers......

Best of luck to you at the dentist, Sun. :) Sorry about the sleepless night. :(

Have I told you all how much I hate the time changes? :mad:

A laid back day here.....gotta pack up cake, drinks and utensils this afternoon for sis' birthday party. Hubs is going with me....yay, I do not have to make that trip alone. :banana: For her birthday, I got her a whole bag of that expensive bulk candy from the grocery store....that $12 a pound stuff that you will not buy for yourself.....choc. covered almonds, yogurt covered raspberries, etc. I scooped it from the bins.....and of course, I had to sample some as I was putting it in the gift bag when I got home. :laugh:

Morning Glam :)

Have fun today and enjoy every minute.

I don't know if it's the time change or what but I slept like crap last night. Today is going to tough one. :grr:

Sorry to hear this.....I slept ok, but REALLY did not want to get up. Dang government, screwing up our lives!! :glare: Hope you make it through the day ok.....nap this afternoon! :laugh:

Good afternoon Beachmates :D

I didn't get called in last night :thumbs:


Today I gotta do laundry :glare: Speaking of laundry…. Meggers needs to get back here! :sneaky:

I guess I will call and get an appointment with a family practice doctor today. I tried last week to get an appointment with an endocrinologist, to see if they could help me figure out my malaise, weight gain, etc. I have many symptoms of hypothyroidism… but the blood work a couple of years ago showed my TSH to be within normal limits. From what I've read/heard, you really need to have a full panel done, that looks at ALL the hormones associated with the thyroid, not just the TSH, T3 and T4.

I couldn't get an appt with an endocrinologist without a referral. So, I called the GP doc I (thought I) have. Turns out, I had not been there in over 3 years so I am no longer a patient. And she isn't accepting new patients :?:

I got a name of one from one of my co-workers, and he said she is excellent. I guess I will call and get an appointment :facepalm: Have I mentioned I hate going to the doctor?? :rolleyes: :laugh:

So…. if y'all don't hear from me for a few days, I am probably stuck in the recorded phone messages, desperately pushing buttons to get to a real person :D

Oh I feel for you Tink. That was the biggest aggrevation of the estate thing. Just hearing a recorded message giving me options put me into :grr: mode.

Good luck with the doctor. I'm thinking about having mine do the same tests. The weight gain is gaining 8-o.

Got out of the pool and I was hot. I turned the AC on in the car. :shock: Got home and got out of the slacks and into Capris.

Brunch time!!

Good morning Tink :) (still have about 7 minutes of morning here ;) )

Sorry about your medical woes, I didn't know that about being "dropped" if you didn't visit your doctor over a certain amount of time :?: :(

Still working on laundry here too!

I didn't either :glare: It may just be certain doctors offices that do that. But…. it is like you are penalized if you don't go to the doctor every year :ohmy: I do go to my gyno every year, but don't feel like I need another check up every year by a GP. I just need a GP if I get sick or need a referral :sneaky:

Capris!!!!! :banana::banana::banana:

Sorry about the aggrevation, Tink. I hate going to the Dr. too, so I feel for ya. You and jj just need to eat more like me....then you will know why you have the weight gain, and will not need a Dr. :D

Dale.....sorry you are not up to par. :( Hope you get better as the days goes on.


:laugh: I'm not saying my diet is perfect :D But, I have tried eating right and have done certain regimens (ie, advocare, the skinny gut diet, etc) and can not lose a pound. Then I get discouraged/...... and start eating again… and gain MORE weight :ohmy: Also, I have other symptoms, so would like to get thyroid checked. And, if it is not thyroid, maybe a full blood workup will show something that is causing it :unsure:

She may just tell me I am lazy and to get my azz off the couch :laugh:

I have been working on my bathroon most of the morning.....I cannot believe how many jars of face creams, moisturizers, body lotions, hand creams, etc. that I have accumulated. AND NONE OF THEM WORK!!!!! :facepalm: I had a bottle of body lotion with a pump that was almost empty, so I dumped some baby oil in that and put a lot of those jarred creams in that bottle and shook them up with the baby oil...maybe my own concoction will give me baby smooth skin. (This is a very tongue-in-cheek statement. :laugh:) Or maybe there will be a chemical reaction from all those formulas mixed and my skin will be eaten away. :ohmy::blink:

But at lease my storage areas in the bathroom look better. :)
