D.T.'s Monthly Report Tuesday, 02-May-2000 04:21:54 Hi friends: I had a cyst removed from the top of my ankle. It was growing for about 10 years. Might cost me about $300-400 for the procedure. I have to use medicine on the stitched up part for about a week or so. I can barely walk and cannot run. It's numb from the medicine but it will hurt like hell. At least it wasn't deep. My birthday last Wednesday was OK. I was just too tired to celebrate it with people...again. Easter at work was a disaster as half the staff couldn't come to work for various reasons and I ended up working about 11 hours and 10 the next day. I received a new computer chair for my birthday, a bunch of new socks (I needed them really bad), a Comp USA gift certificate, a wallet, and some shirts. Not much else happening in San Diego except the Padres are on a really bad losing streak. So much for this year. Easter fell on my nephew's birthday. Strange coincidental clash. I also was busy overhauling my websites and what a job it was. Never again! Well, that's my monthly happenings. d.t. Re: D.T.'s Monthly Report Friday, 05-May-2000 19:53:17 D.T, So how is the ankle feeling? I was thinking of you when I read the post. I hope you are not in a lot of pain and it heals fast! Well, I am still suffering from the headaches. The Dr.received the report from the cat scan and everything was normal. I was relieved but am still frustrated because They are so severe and I just wish I could figure out whats causing them. Oh well, looking forward to my weekend dose of EIE and r/r. The weather today was super, sunny and in the eighties. I hope the weekend is going to be nice. Well my eyes are getting tired of being on the computer and It's almost time for Providence. Hope everyone has a great weekend!! Hugs, Nancy B. Re: Re: D.T.'s Monthly Report Tuesday, 09-May-2000 09:55:43 Hi, Nancy. Sorry to hear about your headaches. I know it can be frustrating when you're having pain and the doctors can't find what it is. I hope it's not migraines, I've never experienced them but have heard they're awful. I had a terrible headache all Saturday afternoon from spending the morning doing yard work in the hot sun. It's too hot for May! I did get a chance to see EiE on Saturday, I hadn't had a chance to watch it in a while. Last weekend, my husband and I and some friends went to Virginia for the weekend. You mentioned "Providence", I love that show too. My favorite character is Joannie. Well, that's enough babbling for now. Take care, and I'll say a prayer for you! )^..^( Missy Re: Re: D.T.'s Monthly Report Wednesday, 10-May-2000 01:48:34 Hi there: My ankle is healing ok, but it's mildly painful for now. The cyst turned out to be benign. What a relief. It was the size of a marble belive it or not. I had severe headaches last summer that was so bad that I was having trouble sitting or standing or doing anything. I thought I was having a stroke or something. I called a nurse and she told me to lay with my face down, put a cold pack of water (not ice) on the back of my head, and lay there for 1-2 hours. Try it and see if it helps, and take aspirin along with it. If the headache is really bad, try 3, but ask your nurse before you try this. I can't reccomend that it's for you. I gotta get my mom something nice, but my resources are strained. I was thinking of one of those yard-long mothers day cards. Take care. d.t. Re: D.T.'s Monthly Report Tuesday, 09-May-2000 10:00:30 Hi Dave, and belated Happy Birthday! I hope your ankle is feeling better. The cyst must have been pretty big if it was growing for 10 years. Ouch! I'm glad you got it taken care of, although it's a shame it has to be so expensive! How's the weather in San Diego? We're having California type weather here on the East Coast, it's been in the 90's since the weekend. We just got our roof fixed, so now we don't have to panic every time it rains. (It had been leaking for several years -- only when it rained of course) Next project is papering the kitchen walls! Last weekend, my hubby and I went to Virginia with some friends for a couple days, we visited Williamsburg, Yorktown, and Jamestown. Very pretty area. Bye for now! Have a good week! Missy Re: Re: D.T.'s Monthly Report Wednesday, 10-May-2000 01:50:48 Hi there We're not exactly having East Coast type weather in San Diego. Cloudy and cold one day, hot and muggy the next day. Just wait until August. d.t. Re: Re: Re: D.T.'s Monthly Report Wednesday, 10-May-2000 20:21:18 Hi Friends, Well its Wed Nite and the weather is terrible!! We're having a bad thunderstorm right now. Missy, what happened to spring? We went right from a month ago having snow to over 90 degree days. What a change today, its prob only in the high 50's. Well its been three days w/o a headache. I don't have clue why but I am grateful for the relief. So glad that the cyst was benign, D.T, sure wish it would heal fast for you. Missy, you mentioned you were in Va. I love it there too. If you get the chance, there is a place called the pottery. Its outside of Williamsburg. Its really a neat place with all kinds of outlets. I also love Busch Gardens too in Williamsburg,so much to do but worth the trip. Glad to know that you are also a fan of Providence. I try to catch it as much as I can. I agree with you I do love Joanie's character. I only wish that Doug (the dog Guy) would come back in the picture. Maybe the season finale? Oh well, looks like she is head over heels with the new guy the fireman. oh well I guess we will have to wait and see. Sorry guys for chatting so much about Providence when this is really eie messageboard. Only a few more months and then we can all be glued to the E channnel to watch the eie segment. Hope everyone, especially the cast members are pleased. Well, I'm going off line cause just saw a lightening bolt come really close to my window. Bye for now friends. Hugs, Nancy Re: Re: Re: Re: D.T.'s Monthly Report Friday, 12-May-2000 08:12:27 Hi, Nancy. Yeah, I remember Wednesday night. Although we didn't have any really heavy rain in our area, I heard some really LOUD thunder a few times, and it shook the house! At one point I thought we were going to have an earthquake! But we had no power outages, flooding, high winds, or anything like that. It was quite a drop in temperature during the day, I nearly froze! We didn't make it to the pottery this time when we were in Williamsburg, but we've been there many times. It is a neat place. We went to Busch Gardens once several years ago. I've been wondering what happened to Doug on Providence, too. He seemed to disappear with no explanation. The writers of the show seem to have a habit of doing that. I've also noticed over the past few months that they occasionally stuck a rerun of an older episode in between the ones for this season, which kind of wrecks the continuity. I wouldn't have even been aware that they were reruns, except that I read it on the messageboard on the Providence website. By the way, if you want to check it out, the web address is www.welcometoprovidence.com (I think that's it.) We're going to New York City tomorrow, hope the weather is good. Well, enough babbling for now. Have a good weekend. Missy Re: Re: Re: Re: D.T.'s Monthly Report Thursday, 18-May-2000 19:31:40 HI Missy, Geez, the weekend is pratically here and time seems to be flying. I know its a little late, but how was New York? You certainly had nice weather last weekend. Well I will be glued to the tube tomorrow nite to watch the season finale of Providence. Thanks for telling me about the website, I will be checking it out. Did you or anybody else happen to catch the specials that were on about the Brady Bunch and Different Strokes. It was a behind the scenes look at the cast. I really thought it was pretty sad the way that they depicted Dana Plato. All for the sake of Ratings!! Well, hope you and everybody here has a great weekend!! Hugs, Nancy Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: D.T.'s Monthly Report Friday, 19-May-2000 10:40:52 Nope, didn't catch the specials on the Brady Bunch and Different Strokes. We had a blast in New York City. I'd been afraid I wouldn't be able to go, because I sprained my toe the evening before and my foot really hurt, but I got up really early Sat. morning and walked around the house a lot, and it started feeling better. So I limped a lot during the day, but at least I could walk. We went to the Central Park Zoo, FAO Scwartz, Rockefeller Center, St. Patrick's Cathedral, and the Empire State Building (it was starting to get foggy so we couldn't see as far as we'd have liked, but it was still a pretty view, with the lights coming on at dusk). Looking forward to the season finale of Providence. Wonder if they're going to leave us hanging all summer wondering if Syd is going to come out of the coma. Have a nice weekend. Missy
