    3 expected days of below-freezing temps wreaks havoc in Dallas!

    I am just going to put stuff in a cooler and put it on the patio if needed. We are going to be cold enough to keep it outside if necessary. I have told the kids if they lose power not to try to get here. Go right then to the nearest hotel and I will cover the cost. I have a gas fireplace to...

    Do you wear reading glasses?

    I am also a dollar tree person for reading glasses. I just went last week and bought about 8 pairs for the year. I keep them all over the house, one in the car and one in my purse. Very, very cheap to have something on hand!

    Not that anyone is asking

    You are absolutely right! They made me try so many things when I first got sick. 10 years later one of the docs asked me if anyone checked my neck. MRI showed problem in the cervical area, bulging discs and narrowing of the spinal formalin. I would have shot back "Why have you not been...

    Everything good, had check up this morning. She gave me another month of Mounjaro and a script. Once it is approved by my medicare plan I will be good to go. Lost 7lbs in 3 weeks. Stuff does make you feel bad, digestive issues. Hope you are well!

    We heal slower as we age. My doctor always is concerned about scratches on my arms. They had happened weeks before from the dogs. Our skin is just thinner so the marks stay a long time.

    That could also be a sign of healing. Remember when you have had stitches or a bad cut. It always will sting, burn and itch when it starts to heal. I always thought it was because the new skin was trying to grow in but there was still pulling on the wound. My Csection scar about drove me...

    @hollydolly, that sounds strange to me. As I said, the hubs had many MOHS surgeries. They were all done in such a way that there was always a flap cut or made of skin to cover the wound and then stitched close. He had one on the side of his nose where they had to insert a bubble thing. That...

    I Will Not be Posting for a While

    I am so sorry to hear of your loss. I wish there were words to comfort you but I have none.....When it happened to me I just kind of went away in my mind for a while. Sounds bad but was needed for my grief. Take the time you need, do not feel rushed to recover, pay close attention to what you...

    Just regular Texas cows here. Got the kids a ribeye roast for $5.97lb. They also got some lobster tails (small ones) for $4.97 each and a whole slab of salmon for 6.97lb. Best part, I don't have to cook any of it!!

    I do take it at the same time. I try to see what gives me the most relieve of symptoms. I take one, after the time listed for it to leave my body, only then do I take something else to see if it works better. I just tried a 3rd, dyclomine which is a different type of smooth muscle relaxer...

    I do know your body has to adjust to any new med. I have no intention of losing that much weight....all the celebs that do this are nuts. We are not meant to be that thin IMO. Then they have a face lift, do all these fillers and botox, which them appear like cartoon characters. I just need to...
