It's really cool when I inhale... and then I stop... my lungs keep making noise for a few seconds after.

Hi there!

Haven't checked in for a couple of days, but there's not too much to report. Had a freezing rain event last night that kinda caught everyone by surprise. Down here in the lowlands of NC, that can be a dangerous thing for some of the idiots behind the wheel. I had to use my tire lever to help pry my door open this morning there was so much ice on it!

How is everyone's Christmas(that's right, I said Christmas--not Holiday) shopping going so far? Have you started? Finished? Me?.....I haven't started actually buying anything yet, but have made several different scouting trips, so I kinda know already what I'm getting everyone.

I can tell it's getting close to Christmas since my liquor consumption has gone waaayy up in the last two weeks. :p

orning! Stosh - sounds like you may have something similar to what I had. I had an upper repertory infection…you may want to get that checked out.

Today I find out that there is an all-school assembly that will require use of my teaching space (nice huh?) so I have to rearrange my schedule to accommodate AGAIN! I wouldn’t mind if they would just tell me in advance so I could be prepared. Worst part is…I have a concert next week!!!! Anyway, other than that things are going well. Breast feeding class is tonight. I have one student coming to the house for a lesson before that and we’ll be working on the nursery (putting the crib together). Once it’s finished, I’ll post up some pics.

so it's actually an infection you think... I don't even know who my primary physician is.

Morning. Not much to report here either. Just hung out at home last night with the fam and watched the Seahawks kick the snot out of the Eagles. :D Oh, and I have a question for you :monkey:'s... Does anyone know if you've lost your high-school diploma, can you contact the school and have them fax or mail something to verify that you graduated? I have no idea where mine is.... Thanks in advance and have a good day y'all! :thumb:

Had a bunch of wet snow last night that clung to all the trees and power lines. Lost electricity about midnight. Woke up to a very cold house and a very cold shower.

Good morning all. I still need to finish learning all of the orders of mammals, numbers of families in each order, specific examples from each family, around 80 New York State mammals which I need to identiy from a pelt or skull, and a bunch of skeletal terminology...all just for a lab practical. Kids make sure you think long and hard before embarking in a career in biology.

Goodmorning. Another low-key day at the office. The boss and his wife (who sits across from me) are gone on vacation and I'm loving the fact that I can turn up my music and go at my own pace. I finished another freelance article last night on pain management and I found out that my first article will be out next week. I also found out that my frame shipped yesterday :thumb: Can't wait!

Feel better, Stosh. I haven't had good luck with Drs. down here. I'm assuming you have an HMO?

Yeah I have an HMO. I've had a similar sickness to this a couple years back and they said that antibiotics won't do anything for me... I just hate paying the money for them to tell me that.

Yeah but chances are you will end up with a much cooler job than me.

Westy, they have to be able to fax you a copy. I mean, who knows where theirs is...I don't.
You have confused me. Are you referring to my tax problems? I found documentation that I rolled the money back into an IRA, I may have failed to include this in my original filing. I need to get the money out of my name and set it up as a trust fund for my neices.

Hahahahah - not sure where I got that! Sorry :love:
No sweat..I knew you were talking to me. :)

And to answer my own question, yes and no. The high-school diploma I received was the "one and only". But, in NY state, a copy of my certified transcripts will serve the same purpose.

I totally agree. When I had the kidney infection last summer, it took several doctors nearly a week to diagnose it. At $20 a pop, that stinks. Finally, after a $50 copay and 8 hours in the ER, they had a diagnosis for me :(

No, sorry, I meant to respond to McGRP01.

YIKES!!!

Aubrey has been having a lot of problems with Dr's diagnosing her breathing problems. Basically a dr's job is to perscribe the newest drugs and if that doesn't work then they prescribe some other new drugs and if that doesn't work you get a second opinion.

Yeah, I went the same route Aubrey did for our similar problem. After a few visits and tests (which they rescheduled and didn't tell me), the dr. just gave me some antibiotics and essentially told me that my condition was no big deal.

Well, I'm no Dr. but I was wheezing and making all sorts of crazy noises when I was trying to breath and that was my Dr.s opinion (not that he could give me anything being prego and whatnot).

Yeah, you should be able to contact the school and they can send you a verification.

Out of my mind, back in a moment.
Afternoon people.

Took an exam today. One down, maybe....9 to go? One more at 3:30 today, which is a throwaway exam.

I'm having trouble waking up lately. My body is up, but my mind just refuses to function before about 9:30. I need to eat better, methinks.

Hey there stranger...how's your little boy doing?
The little guys is doing great. I can't tell you how wonderful it is having him. His jondise (sp) is almost gone. He is already up to 5oz of food per eating and he smiled for the fist time last night.

I was meaning to ask you, is this going to be your first kid?

Yes, she is and I am SO excited. We finally decided on her first name (Sydney) and are working on her middle name. Her nursery is almost finished (just have to put the crib together) and I am getting anxious to have her home!!! You should be posting up some new pics of the little guy soon!!!

Nice! Which digital camcorder did you get? We just got a Samsung digital camcorder (& helmet cam attachment) and we're looking forward to video taping her antics!
