She won't be able to sleep in the hospital. They come around every two hours to check your vitals, someone's paging a nurse, or like when I was in the hospital in 2001, the guy down the hall has TB, can't stop coughing, and his door is open. The attendant (not a nurse) tried to tell me TB isn't that contagious.

Good Morning Everybody !!

It's a mild 24 degrees, in the alpine, at Whistler, this morning. Got a foot of new snow, yesterday, and expecting a couple more inches, today.

Hoping for a bit of a break in the weather, before the next storm rolls in, on Saturday night.

Time to hit the slopes...... Have a great day, y'all

It's 23 in my back yard. Not bad for Florida! I went for a walk late last night just so I could wear my cold weather gear and I met 5 other people doing the same thing.

Treebait, my mum lives in Gainesville, and I always laughed at her new house because it has a fireplace. She actually is justified in using it now though! :-)

5F in Huntsville, Alabama this morning.

We lost power last night for about 4 hours, on the coldest night in a decade. Great going, Huntsville Utilities. I had to get up and start all the taps going, plus I built a fire in the woodburning stove to help pump a little heat into the house. Finally, around 3:30AM, the power came back on. I slept maybe 4 hours last night, and I have a funeral to go to today. I am in a lovely mood...

Ever get in the shower and when you are just about done, you can't remember if you have shampooed your hair? It's been that kind of morning.

Yah, SS....all the time. I look at the shampoo bottle and see if there is still some running down the inside or not...if there is, then I've washed my hair.

This method only works well with translucent or clear shampoo bottles though.

Treebait - is HPM bass fishing? I used to do quite a bit of that when I was a kid and lived in Gainesville. I dabbled in it a few years ago up here and want to do more of it this spring.

I woke up this morning and both of my arms were asleep. I couldn't move them at all and had no feeling in them. This'll happen every now and then with one arm, but the first time it's happened with both! It was pretty cool! I had a hard time sitting up. Hee hee..

have you tried moving the alarm clock closer to your arms? :D

I had that happen to my legs. Woke up with a dalmation sleeping on me, made it very hard to get up as I didnt even have the strength to roll over.

Yeah, it was crazy! I love when that happens, but this was the first time with both arms. When it's with one arm, I like to pick it up and flop it around. It's kinda cool. I guess I'm too easy to amuse. ;-)

We have regular heat wave going on. Supposed to be near 50 today with rain. Yesterday, I have to admit it felt nice with the sun out and in the 40's. Quite a bit of snow melted in the city, but back to winter in a few days.

The warmer weather has been nice. It was nice to get a small hint of what spring will bring. Just another month or so and we'll be getting it on a daily basis. However, I'm glad the cold is coming back. :-)

Sleet and freezing rain here this morning, after a day of Spring yesterday. S'posed to get real cold here, again, later this week. It's gonna be nip and tuck with the firewood this year.

Artex, do you have carpal tunnel syndrome? I've had it for years, a result of too many hours doing fine work at my drawing board. Always hits me bad after I've done a lot of heavy work using gross muscle movement - then my arms and wrist fall asleep trying to do the fine stuff. Went to a homeopathic nurse a few months ago, got a remedy, and have largely been cured so far. Worth checking out once you've ruled out any possible underlying medical causes. I would opt for surgery only as a last resort. People DIE in hospitals!
