[OT] My first Halloween by
Yowie
Halloween wasn't celebrated here when I was a kid - we knew it simply as an
American holiday. But, seeing a marketting oppourtunity, the shops (and
therefore people) in the last 5 years ago have started making a 'fuss' about
Halloween, and we've had the occasional trick-or-treater knock on our...

[OT] My healing progress by
Mark Edwards
A couple of weeks ago, I went from having dressings changed three times a
week to daily dressing changes. These are supposed to be final phase
dressing changes.
I am apparently within one or two days from finishing all dressing
changes, or at least from nurse visits. I am so eager to get this...

[OT] My mother by
Yowie
My mother has to go for a 'hysteroscopy' next week, but her gynacologist
has said she should expect good news. She's already been told she'll most
likely have to have a hysterectomy before Christmas. *Before Christmas* -
nothing moves that fast around here unless its *urgent*.

[OT] Narnia by
CatNipped
We went to see "The Chronicles of Narnia, The Lion, The Witch, and the
Wardrobe" yesterday. It is an *EXCELLENT* movie!!! It has great special
effects (so seamless that you don't even wonder at seeing a faun prancing
about on hooves), good story, and is very moving (it really makes you care
about...

[OT] Need Bicycle Advice by
Catnipped
I know there are at least a couple of bicycle enthusiasts here. I have a
question you might be able to answer.
I think I may have convinced DH to get a bicycle, but he's hesitant still.
The problem is he's quite a bit overweight (which is one reason I would like
to see him start *any* type of...

[OT] Need Medical Translation by

I *SO* miss Howard Berkowitz right now! ; I'm hoping there is maybe
someone else in the group that could help me translate the "findings" of my
MRI.
I recently had the MRI done to see if we could pinpoint the injury to my
neck that I did 18 month ago. This is the "findings" and I have *NO*...

[OT] Need Opinions / Help by

I promised myself I wouldn't come back to the group until I could stop
whining about my problems. OK, I'm not going to whine, I want to *DO*
something to change things.
The problem... I think I've become a perpetual "victim". This is the
second boss in a row who is being really abusive to...

[ot] Need Software Suggestion by

In another message I discussed my recent computer woes, and how I've
had to go back to using an old desktop that runs Win98 (from my laptop
that ran XP).
I think the one thing I miss most is the calendar and address book
functions in MS Outlook (not Outlook Express). My desktop doesn't

[OT] New Carjacking Method by

Heads up everyone!
You walk across the parking lot, unlock your car and get inside.
You start the engine and shift into reverse, and when you look into the
rearview mirror to back out of your parking space, you notice a piece of
paper stuck to the middle of the rear window. So, you shift into...

[OT] New Job by
CatNipped
Well, there's only one bad thing I can say about this job, and that's the
long commute (an hour and a half each way). But you know what? It's not as
bad as the last job which had a bit shorter commute. I've found that with
this job, I'm loving my work and co-workers so much that my mood...

[OT] New Pet Peeve by

At this time of year it seems like very commercial is about a "year end"
close out, or "year end" savings. Well, these spokespeople really need
diction lessons because I keep doing double takes wondering why anyone would
want to go to a urine sale! ;

By the time this is posted (they're uploading as I type), there should be a
bunch of new Yowlet photos at Yahoo. (Or you could re-visit the old ones).
I'm already amazed at how much he's changed, and can't really remember his
face when he was still a newborn unless I look at the photos...
