Hi Pat,  I hope Mary Page will see your message?   It's been quite a while since she's posted here in B&T.  Hoping that she is feeling well, and that we'll soon hear from her.

Jackie,  I'm worried about you,  and still expecting to hear something from you too?  Let us know if you've moved to the care home, and where it's located, and if you're doing okay?

Marilyne..
..just released a few hours ago from another two week hospital stay, ( taken in told had a fever ) had a few falls where ambulance came to get me up, this was during he short time afyter i was released on the previous two week hospital stay, then banged my the back of my head, had to be X-Rayed...Thank you for missing me and caring enough about asking about me...
Had to insert a PIC line ( half hour procedure ) to administer a drug three times a day, as they had many issues in the end inserting a canula...Anyway they have got rid of my Venous Leg Ulcer, had two bacteriors in it, they had got rid od one bacterior and the only drug that worked for the second bacterior was by the PIC line...The Venous Leg Ulcer took four months to get rid of that oozing yellow-green foul smelling fluid that oozed from the bandages over my leg and foot onto the floor as i walked..
Then of course due to a knock a couple of weeks ago on the other leg cellulitus set in, that too has been dealt with..
Walking is still very unsteady,  part due also to my multiple scclerosis, now awaiting my care package, i have a care package where someone will come in three times a day seven days a week...also awaiting medications to be home delivered by my pharmacy from the hospital...i have the care package in place, and the hospital discharge papers...

Jackie - It's good to see you back. Hoping all continues to get better. Don't rush things. Take all the help you need, or can get.

Jackie,  So good to hear from you.  Sounds like you're getting excellent treatment for all of your health issues.  Just hoping  that you will now begin healing, and will soon feel better.  I'm familiar with the  PIC line, and how it looks and works.  My daughter had one in her arm, for an infection that wouldn't heal.  This was a long time ago, so I don't remember much except that it did cure the infection.  Good that you will have someone who will come three times a day to help you.  Keep us posted on how you're feeling.  I'll be thinking about you, and hoping for the best!  :thumbup:   

Marilyne

Hoping all Bait & Tackle readers are doing okay this weekend?    Last night we had our first "rain" in six months!  If you can call .01 (one one-hundredth of an inch) rain.  Barely dampened the driveway and the decks, and now Mister Sun is smiling down on us once again!  ::)
I don't think that small amount of moisture will go far in helping to stave off more wild fires. 

Jackie, hoping you're feeling better every day, and that your leg infection is gone.  The PIC line is a nuisance, but works well.  Keep us posted on when you think you'll be moving to the care home?

Callie,  I just saw your new message in Library~Bookshelf.  I think we were both posting at the same time.  I'll get back with a few comments later on today I hope. 

Jackie -  Good to see your message there too, and also your book recommendation.

We haven't heard from Mary Page, in any of the folders that she posts in . . . Library,  Bosom Buddies and here?  I'm hoping that she is doing well, and if she's not, that someone will let us know?  Patricia, has been missing also, so hope she is okay?  She stays in contact with Mary Page, so maybe she will let us know when she returns?   

Amy


How very kind of you, Patricia.  I am still alive, but hardly kicking.  Feeling my age big time.  Please remember me to everyone, & I will try to remember how to do Senior Net.  I am fallen back to just e-mails to family these days.

love & thanks with many memories & good wishes

Thanks to Patricia, and Amy for letting us know about Mary Page.   It was good to see her message here, and to know that she is doing well.   Patricia, hope you are okay, and will soon be returning to S&F.

I'm struggling through this first day of the time change, but usually get used to it fairly quickly.   If I ruled the World, I would declare  Standard Time  year around -  the natural way things are meant to be.   I know I'm in the minority, and that most people prefer DST.   It was voted in as permanent a few years ago, so I don't know why we're still going through this twice a year clock change?

MarsGal

I thought so too, Marilyne. When that didn't happen, I thought it was meant for this year, then forgot about it. If I think of it tomorrow I will look it up.

MaryPage

Here I am, & thank you, Patricia & Amy.  Trying to remember stuff here.  Of Course, I feel Patricia is a personal friend, as well as a Senior Net friend.  Not easy for me to communicate these days.  Love you all a whole bunch. though.

MaryPage, I'm just getting online myself and so glad to see you back online as well.

Marilyne

Mary Page - So good to see you posting again.  :thumbup:  I'll be  looking forward to your next message.

Patricia - Glad to see you back online again.  Thank you for contacting Mary Page for us.

Is this all that has been posted since last I came in?[/i][/font]

Marilyne

Mary Page . . . Good to see your post!  Yes,  things have slowed down here in Bait and Tackle, as well as in most of the other discussions.  Seems like the messages come in waves . . . a whole lot  at once, and then it slows down to just a scattered few. 
Hoping you're feeling well, and that you return often?

Ah so --- not sure of her name here on Seniors & Friends but frybabe on Seniorlearn told me to check out Norm's Bait and Tackle - well...  :2funny:  many Norm's Bait and Tackle locations all over the nation that sell real Bait - Lordy - Had to re-register since it has been years since I posted with Seniors & Friends.

So glad to see your posts MaryPage - hope you are having a good day...

First cold night last night - never did check the temp but the cold woke me and I had to get up, put some socks on and a shirt that was easy to grab and even put the heat on for a bit only to have to shut it of 10 minutes later - never did like the heat on at night and in winter I typically let the house get into the high 60s before the heat comes on but last night there was a cold wind that penetrated through the windows in my north facing bedroom and so, where the rest of the house was OK my face and head was freezing till I also finally grabbed a Tshirt and draped it over my head then pulled a second blanket up --- once I get into the new weather season I'm OK but, like the time change, it takes me a day or two...  Sun is out today and the forecast is for a warmer tomorrow - it will be a gradual warming with temps in the 70s during the day till finally back in the 80s next week...

I know, I know sounds like complaining because in your area those are summer temps however, we do have weeks of triple digit in summer - not a day or even a week but weeks of furnace like heat...

Yesterday, with my grocery delivery I ordered 3 containers of herbs to plant - went out to do just that and decided to bring them in and wait a few days... Once they root they will be fine unless we drop, as we probably will, into the 60s or even below then all the hanging plants get brought into the garage where I have a heat light helping them - still need to plant some trees in the back but, like some of you, we too have experienced little rain since the deluge last summer and so I've decided to wait till early Spring.
