Oh, I'm so sorry to hear you're feeling so bad and have so much to deal with on top of it.  I have some idea of how you feel.  I'm just so tired and it seems like every day there's something else that needs to be handled.

I hope the medication that urgent care gave you will make you feel a little better until you can get to a new gastroenterologist.  In the meantime try to rest as much as possible, which can be difficult I know.

At least you got your thermostat fixed this time! 👍

@geezerette : Thank you. Totally agree with being tired. Yes , life issues with growing older but makes everything more difficult. 
So we are moving very slowly like the turtles but being encouraged: We are still moving and not giving up.

We need to stay positive and determined to laugh and giggle instead of crying. Plus if  we need an extra stash of our special treats: make special treats a priority on our shopping list.😊😊😊

Take care and stay warm and safe.❤️😀😀🙏🙏😋

I am not happy with my internet provider  as my wifi  stopped working last Tuesday..and i called  and was told wifi's were down  and be fixed Friday... but what Friday did they mean??

My IBS  has started back up again  any stress makes it kick in...

  If it was a lot warmer out i would switch to cable service!

But ,its too cold  as a new line would need to be brought acoss the street to my house..

.but once again

new line might be pulled down  again by a garbage service  picking up neighbors garbace containers like  they did  to my ata& t line !

AT&T will not servive  any lines outside or inside of house or send out a service person!

I have their new service but  service  wifi down!

I want to talk to service man for cable as he lives in my town  to ask his opioion!

I wish it was warmer outside to go walking  but it's not yet for me.

I had a lean Cusine pepperoni pizza for lunch  and glass of cola.

@SouthernBee 

It appears that your test results from your last gastro doctor  was right   when he told you that you were having a severe  colitis attact  hence you denied it  and  sigh you did indeed  and needed to go to urgent care for  same meds dr offered you for your flare up.

I think he was right.

lubs ya!

@cowboy sam   I tried the spaghetti and meatballs from Whole Foods for lunch today ... didn't care for it.   It was too close to the expiration date ... called Amazon and got my money back.

I did have a good salad, though ... very filling.

Yes, the temps toggle between 14-15 ... with a "feels like" temp of -3, so it's still in that dangerous zone when walking along the lake.   

Be safe and warm!

@cowboy sam : So sorry that you are dealing with so much and especially the IBS and of course stress makes it worse.
AT&T has a very bad reputation and rating in our area and we dropped them years ago.Please try to stay calm but easier said than done. 
Stay warm and safe.🙏🙏🙏❤️❤️❤️☕️☕️☕️☕️

@cowboy sam : Well the old gastrointestinal doctor might have been correct but the maintenance medication that we tried in 2024 and side effects for me and yet wanted to prescribe it again in 2025: nope. He is very rude and insensitive: I do not have to tolerate that and that was my main reason for changing doctors.

❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ Love you.

@SouthernBee  Absolutely!!

@cowboy sam @geezerette @qualitygal : My  brain is on fast forward with all this medical stuff, income tax prep and just life. My gut is on a roller coaster ride. 
Current grocery list include extra diapers, toilet paper and Kleenex that are now major necessities. Sam's Club has coupons for the diapers and Kleenex and the toilet paper is cheaper at Walmart.

Weather is 31 but feels like 29. Saturday and Sunday will be very windy and cold..

Very frustrating with the last iPad update. Every time that I open the IPad see notification of things that I need to do. No way cause having trouble with the other new stuff.

My brain: It's time to eat. My gut: no way. Doesn't matter what I eat: goes in and makes a quick exit. Hopefully all my quick trips to my throne- count as exercise. 
Ok. Rant over. Enjoy your weekend and stay warm and safe.❤️❤️🙏🙏☕️☕️☕️
