Good (almost) afternoon, everyone. What's the weather like in your neck of the woods? It is finally sunny and crisp here. Fall is in the air and I love it!!!

clay · 10-11-2012, 10:49 AM

Morning Lofters! Actually afternoon Lofters!! My bad.
The weather here is awesome. Is a nice 68 here, windows open and a gentle breeze. I am still in my shorts and tee...my year round attire..lol.
RUTHIE: Hoping you are better and get good news.
CUDDLY: Just keep rehab'ing yourself as best you can!
HEAVEN: See above for my weather!
COUNTY: Afternoon...<smiles> (brat)
MORNING: Hope you found a pencil to draw! That bites big time not being able to find one...
everyone else..have a wonderful day!!!

My sweet friend...YOU are your responsibility. Please take care of you so you can be around for a long time!

I'm not really sure what all to write on here right now! I'm a single butch/ftm/gender queer looking for a nice femme and anyone else for new friends.

Welcome! I'm a bit new here myself. Feel free to tell us anything you want to about your aches and pains....deteriorating eyesight...bad knees...those darned kids who wont stay out of your yard...whatever.

Hey Graffiti...I didn't go back far enough to find your original post, but I wanted to mention that my next contract for work might be in Minneapolis. It is a toss-up between there, Durham (NC), or taking some time off in San Diego (CA) through the holidays. If I am Minneapolis, it would be great to know a local.

Kobi · 10-12-2012, 08:57 AM

Mornin Lofters,

Been a while since I was here. Hope everyone is enjoying a touch of fall.

Spent some time at women's week in Ptown. Was nice to be around all that female energy.

Now, I need a weekend to recover. LOL.

Cool! If you do end up coming this way let me know. We can hang if you have time and/or I can point you towards some good places to go.

Cuddlyfemme,
I understand about not neglecting your kitties. Need more coffee...let me try my best here to explain...this website will show you where you can go for outpatient rehab...http://www.healthsouth.com/en/locati...rehabilitation
I hope you can find a facility near you.
I checked this place out and they are highly recommended by all of those...organizations that matter. You should be able to get orders and coverage for this. It will make you feel better. I have to say...i feel badly posting such personal information here. I hope that you don't mind.
If you do mind, please tell me.

Mornin All...i want to stay here and not go to work on my day off...
ugh...so much for that....i gotta put a neon sign up..help an employee, single mother with three children and going to school, with her car...and get rid of a boat today...ugh...
Have a good one yall

Nope not to personal and very much appreciated. I go see my nerologist on Monday and will ask him about it. I totally forgot about HS. I used them years ago when I lived in Washington DC. I hurt my back due to a car accident. Thanks again!!

Thank you very much, Mel. I will try hard to take care of me. I do great with taking care of others but not so much me...

cuddlyfemme · 10-12-2012, 03:01 PM

Good Evening Everyone! I hope your day has been good. I've been really high strung today...not sure why...maybe its cause of the ammount of caffeine that I've had today. I'm trying my best to chill out and do some stuff around the house that I've been putting off although some of the stuff is hard to do when you have to use a walker. Anyway, have a wonderful Friday night everyone. Have fun!!!!

Helena_Handbasket · 10-12-2012, 09:47 PM

Ohhh...I love Women's Week in P-town!

I have to pass a drug screen and background check but am expecting to start Monday 10/22 WOOHOO! I will fly to San Diego at least 1 weekend per month but would like to explore the area other weekends. The nice thing about consulting is I get to see different parts of the US (I hope for some assignments outside of the US as well).

I second what Morning Star asks. What type of consulting. We've known each other a long time and I'm sure you told me...I just forget

ruthie14 · 10-13-2012, 11:43 AM

I went to a women of color singles mingle last night... that was fun. Getting to know a nice woman... we shall see.
Thanks for all your well wishes, need all I can get right now.

Dr is sending me Monday for an ultrasound of my stomach and then tuesday he is doing an endoscopy. Hopefully we can finally figure out what the heck is wrong with my stomach. Going to try hard boiled eggs for lunch and see how that goes. I woke up this morning with a cold. A lot of kids in my class have it, but I usually don't get them. I haven't been able to take my vitamins the dr has me on to fight them soooo... here I am sick. I had acupuncture this morning and went to the last half of a rehearsal. Can't sing yet bc the stomach issues has left my vocal cords burnt. Using holistic stuff to heal them up. They should get better after they fix my stomach.

I was supposed to go to the Witches ball tonight (basically a holloween party in a small town) but it is outside. It is cold here today and I don't think that would be a good idea considering how I feel. Walking around in the cold doesn't sound appealing. Oh well, next year maybe I'll make it.

Have a great weekend lofters! Welcome to the new folks!
