Seed Purge Pt 2
Comments (73)"Posted by legallyheidi 7B (missreadsalot87@yahoo.com) on Mon, Dec 2, 13 at 23:32 Oh! I hope you feel better soon! Shingles suck. Try and stay happy and stress free...when my brother had it a few years ago, his doctor told him that...along with taking his meds. I cannot take pain meds...my gut doesn't like them." Thanks, Heidi,...still working on it. Nearly every morning , generally quite early, I really want a double hit of 200mg Ibuprofen to counteract the soreness and pain I'm experiencing, but I continue to resist and haven't taken pain meds in well over a week. Basically, at this point, I'm working to adjust to this new level of discomfort while maintaining as much overall functionality as I can. Good news is, I'm getting a lot better at it and accomplishing more. Can't expect everyone to remain understanding forever. Pain meds don't really agree with me all that well either, particularly the narcotic variety it seems (although, years ago, when I had pancreatitis, I learned to nearly love Demerol). Super-uber majorly sux that you can't take oral pain meds at all. :( I mean, like, holy criminey... Anyway, at least I'm not looking so much like a zombie-ogre fresh from the battlefield anymore, although I still wear my hoodie's hood up covering the adversely affected left side of my face. More for the benefit of others than myself, particularly in keeping with the season. It's going on 1 1/2 months now. Yippeee skip. :/ BTW, I've likewise been made aware of the role of stress regarding Shingles. Alas, with my wife being a recovering cancer patient, our 29-yr-old son being an unreasonable autistic and my wife's 89-yr-old mother and older sister often at odds, a stress-free environment in our universe is, well,...you get the idea. (-sigh-) We just do the best we can, like so many others. :)...See More6 Weeks to Fitness: Week #2
Comments (27)Bonnie, you are doing great! And you are right, it does seem like things are getting harder. I guess they get easier if we stick to it, though, right? ( I hope!!) Annie, that is awesome!!!!! Congrats! Beth, wow about waitressing. I really think it is such a tough job, one of the toughest. How did your weight training go? I am a little less into it this week. Tried a new DVD from a friend but it was so repetitive and I hurt my knees a little. Also got my period EARLY (very early) so I have to deal with that. Missed my workout yesterday despite getting up very early because I had to make things for my mom's b-day . . .but I made myself get up early today to get the workout done, so I didn't miss any! Whew. I see, though, that if I can't do it in the a.m., it is very hard to fit it in at any other time. I really want to get some light equipment and new DVDs. Something easy on the knees but that will really strengthen my legs, butt, etc. to help with my knees. Ideas?...See MoreIf this was YOUR kitchen (pt.2)!
Comments (9)I'm not very good with design but I think you still need more measurements for anyone to give a real opinion. If you add a pantry to the wall with the opening to the foyer, how deep can it be? I can't tell how much room you have to the playroom opening. It looks like it could be 12" or 18" or maybe even 24". My old kitchen had a similar setup and that wall had cabinets, uppers about 9" deep & lowers about 16" deep. How far is it from the doorway to the foyer to the DR/LR wall? I think I would consider closing up one of the doorways. How is the island used? A kitchen this size and 3 40" doorways kind of limits what you can do. I had one this size with 3 doorways (NOT 40"- more like 28-30") until I remodeled. :~) Edited to add - I could be totally wrong because the kitchen linked below has a 12x16 kitchen with openings and it looks very spacious even if you add an imaginary wall! Of course, it all depends on what you are trying to achieve. More counterspace? More storage? I don't know. If the only thing wrong with your kitchen is the refrigerator door won't open, the cheapest thing would be to get a smaller refrigerator.

Comments (8)I think it will match by its "plain-ness". The shower head is the classic Speakman head, the shower valve is either a classic disk with no details or exposed screws or a square with no exposed screws and plain rectangular handles. The tub faucet is the plainest I could find that installs the way my plumber recommends, the sink faucet is a plain commercial faucet. The problem I found with the companion pieces were that one component was either too fussy looking or it didn't have the function I wanted (like no volume control on the shower valve on the one that matched the sink, or the weird square shower head that came with one of the valves I like). I am realizing I am mostly way out of the loop compared to what most people must want, because its either impossible to find at all, or it's a super expensive brand....See MoreFaron79
