Boy I'm glad I didn't hear this until she returned from IRAQ
Comments (10)Thank your DN for me too! Is she home for good? My DGS came home in DEC & still doesn't want to talk much about it! Blesss our Troops! Donna (^_^)...See MoreDoesn't (or didn't) anyone have a great mother-in-law?
Comments (21)I've been so fortunate to have TWO great mothers-in-law. The first was such a delightful and special lady. We had a lot of good times together. I only regret that I HAD TO divorce her son (psychopathic) and I don't know if she ever knew why. My therapist was puzzled when I brought it up!! I hated losing her in that mess. She was so special and I take every opportunity to tell my children about her. An amazing lady! My second MIL was a lovely lady who was so kind and loving. I wish I had had more time with her - not so much as the first one. She was so sweet and dear - I know we would have been great friends if we had only had the time - she passed away several years ago. There was NEVER any attempt by either of them to run my life or interfere. They were just gems. And I'm going to do my best to be that kind of MIL. My son married two weeks ago - to a lovely, wonderful girl who is so good for him. I am so happy with her and hope that our relationship can be as positive as the one I had with BOTH of my MILs....See MoreDidn't plan to spend half the day in urgent care and hospital.
Comments (39)China, I respect your instructions because of your background and I am a person who follows the rules. My instructions from the hospital Tuesday night where they washed the wound thoroughly with a saline solution twice. This was also done at Urgent care earlier. Report said.."It was very clean and dry. You may reinforce the steri strips as needed. This will take several weeks to heal completely. You may resume hiking and walking as long as the area is protected and dry. Tetanus was given. Begin Keflex for prevention of infection. ( so far I have taken 7. ) Motrin Tylenol for pain as needed." ( I have taken none) I have kept the wound completely dry and have not touched it. I take a bath backward in the tub with my leg encased in a plastic bag hanging over the side of the tub. My arm finally doesn't hurt and the leg aches. I can't tell if it's swollen because it's tightly wrapped by the nurse practitioner. I see my regular doc on Tuesday. There is no sign of any more oozing. Thanks so much for your input. I appreciate it....See MoreBought 8 months ago. Sell in 2021 or wait until the 2-year mark?
Comments (44)@k8cd I’ve actually been told by two locals now that the rental market is even more insane here than the home sales. One person suggested renting out our house because apparently SFH’s in this area are hard to come by. The only way I could make that argument with my husband would be to show that it would be extremely lucrative, though, because neither of us are interested in being landlords. @elcieg Why, yes, and I’m starting with my HOA’s parks and rec committee chair position! Ha! (I really have thought about joining the board, but it would be completely self-serving, so that doesn’t seem like a wise idea.) And thank you for bringing up misophonia. Although I was aware of it, I hadn’t really taken it seriously before now. I did more reading about it today, and I definitely plan to bring it up with my physician this week....See Moremmmm12COzone5
