Thanks for the note navi_jen. We are working to restore the spirit of Team Estrogen and the empowerment that the site and the forums brought to women...

Looks like we're all in the same boat as far as doing what we can with the weather we have. Our recent heavy rains have pushed our lake level as high...

We had been planning to ride today but didn't end up doing so. We're still at my mom's in NC, not great cycling, but the reason for not going today...

I don't usually get jet lag from just a one hour difference in time, though I suffer terribly when flying to California or Europe. I got into bed...

You're probably suffering from some jet lag, on top of everything else, Crankin. I really, really hate flying. It takes me several days to get back...

I bet going out for breakfast was worth putting on the concealer! You are lucky your DH is also retired, so you have someone to talk to while you are...

Covered up with as much make-up as I could stand (I rarely use, any, now) and gave it a try for our breakfast outing. I did fine. Only people who...

It is a hard call to decide when to go out, when one’s injuries might gross people out. But, you will find your comfort zone. I was in a car accident...

Cranking, that is a lot of walking! Sounds like you're having fun. Made it down to Navy Pier a time or two, myself. Emily, yes, that is very...

So glad you are still able to take walks, NWG! When I fractured my jaw, I couldn't even take walks for awhile, as it caused the jaw to move about...

You have a great attitude, NWG. I wouldn’t be taking the pain meds, either. We are on our last leg of our trip, sitting in our hotel lobby, waiting...

Thanks, Sheila. All things considered, pretty good. The source of pain has been the severe neck strain and that's gradually diminishing each day as...

Just wondering how you are feeling, Joanie. :)

Thanks, Crankin. Not that first crash I've had and (shudder) probably not the last, but this one was the closest call, by far. One thing for sure, I...

Happy Canada Day, Canadian Friends We just got back from an absolutely delightful and delicious 5-days in Montreal and Im ready to turn around and...

I don't believe I ever met her. My husband knew her from work at Northern Telecom in RTP (NC) before I started working there. It's possible that...

Glad I decided to check in while on vacation. You have my empathy, NWG. Everyone is so right, about developing other interests. I have never had a...

Wanted to go last year but I worked. Just checked my schedule and will definitely be attending on 1/30. I live about 30 minutes north of Dayton.

Thank you so much, Emily. I'm thinking my mind just doesn't want to relive the collision. I'm good with that, because it was horrific enough. Went...

NWG, I know you said you don't want sympathy, but how about empathy? I am shaking my head in disbelief right now, and my heart goes out to you! ...

No, no concussion. While in the hospital for about 20 hours with the trauma team, they checked every single hour for signs, did X rays and C scans,...

Do you have a concussion? Stressing the brain while healing won't help it heal faster, or better. I had a grade 3 concussion in 2012. It's important...

Thank you, NY. I did just that, this morning: went for a walk m the trails. I revisited the spot where I had the fall, trying to piece together what...

Holy cow! I'm glad you weren't hurt worse, NWG. Hang in there, and just take it one day at a time. First allow yourself to process the shock of...

Just got to looking at the new helmet I bought last week because I was concerned my old 15 year old helmet wouldn't protect me. This explains why the...

Thank you so much, both. Love that you thought enough of me to light the incense, rebecca. I do feel we're all related, here. Can't tell you both how...

Good grief :eek::eek:……Hoping the healing process is quicker than you anticipate (remember you ARE Wonder Woman!!!) ….and that you find satisfying...
