    YES, Mimi! Of course!

    I'm afraid i don't get the 1000 extra points, but the salmon with the suitcase is at Seatac airport along with a bunch of other cool fish tiles.

    I have been in that airport enough times..

    Hey Jennifer - just for you on your big day. Some Gingerbread Houses made by the different departments at my hospital for the holiday. Good luck at the Neurologist today hon!! Hang in there, it'll be ok. I'm praying for you and you're in my thoughts all day today.





    We always have something like this going on here. Usually at least twice a week, there is something setup outside our cafeteria like games and what-not to inform us of updates, announcements, educational things, local charity events...
    Very hometown friendly place. (Edit: we voted on them and #1 got 1st, #7 got 2nd, #2 got 3rd.)

    Love ya Jen!! (it'll be ok. really.)

    BMo3 isn't getting scanned today. They are finally telling her the results of the last one from a while back. If anyone had to wait that long around here for results, we'd be out of business. No one would tolerate it.

    Mimi - your chocolate is on it's way! Hope you like it. If you don't, I guess I'll be steering clear of you when I visit in April. I sent a mixture of dark and milk chocolate. We typically pop one of each at the same time for the best flavor. Mmhmmm. Enjoy.

    have a wonderful Friday everyone and be safe.

    BMO3 - Good Luck with the scan results - we're all pulling for you!

    Mimi - Isn't it fun to please someone so well with a gift!

    Nanci - Now, why did I think you were going to become attached to that lovely turtle?

    Just wanted to wish everyone happy holidays (whatever your religious or non-religious beliefs are). The most important part of this time of year is to spend time with the people you care about and I hope that all of you out there have a wonderful time connecting with the great people in your lives!

    I'm off to Tucson tomorrow to connect with my parents and sister.

    Workity work, work.

    Stuffin' the envelopes (yet) and nodding my head to Manson- Golden Age of Grotesque" I really do love the opening 'instrumental' track. And the title track. Probably my favorite CD by him.

    Anyway, last day before my 4 day weekend. hammering through work and getting things all set up so the practice is ready to roll the week after Xmas. Feel like rolling up a sleeve, smiling and saying "We can do it!"

    Seriously.

    Wishing a joyous solstice to all--remember--one more minute of light every day from now on! (Except for CC and our Aussie friends...)

    BMo3 - Thanks for the update. I spaced that this was the "finally meet with high and mighty doctor to get results from the scans" appointment and thought it was more scans. Crazy that you had to wait so long.

    Well, increasing things - maybe that's good and maybe it will help with the TIAs?? You have to just try. And it's good that he didn't say "no" on the running, tri, etc. So you have to test this out and see how it goes? Be sure when you do start up again with running that you take it easy and let your body figure out how it's going to respond to the higher dosages.

    That artery thing probably doesn't have anything to do with it, huh? It's been like that forever I can't imagine it would have anything to do with it.

    Well, try to take it easy and relax. I am sure it's a little anti climactic to wait for so long and then go in and they just say to increase your dosages and don't give you much more to answer the whole WHY WHY WHY part of it. When do you go back??

    Jennifer,
    thanks for updating us all. You are such a strong woman! Hopefully your positive spirit and your being fit and young will help get you through this crisis. Every day science learns new amazing facts about our brain's ability to repair itself in some way or another.

    ((((BMO)))) from me too. I agree with Lisa - you are such a strong woman, physically and emotionally. Have a wonderful Christmas with your family.

    And Merry Christmas to all of you on TD! I survived this last hectic week at school and tomorrow we're off to Vancouver for a few days with my sister's family. I'll be back on Boxing Day (that's the 26th to you 'mericans...)

    Jennifer, (I wrote this hours ago, i guess i never hit "Send")
    Take it a step at a time. I like the fact that you can start riding in a week.
    that's great!

    a narrow artery in your brain huh, too bad they can't stretch it a little (like with a stent) what do i know.

    Good luck on the no migraine medicine. But on the other hand more of the other stuff might do the trick.
