Toms River NJ! I was just there yesterdayHa Ha! Yes! Hitting Zero means there were no deductions. So no falls from stunts or tumbling. Youngest's team hit zero both days as well. You get a pin for hitting zero. It doesn't mean you will win though. The team that was in second place in dd's division had one fall. Her team was just happy because they finally beat a team from Tom's River, NJ that had beaten them twice last season.
I am so sorry to hear this. Prayers for your family.
Same. I'm also sorry to hear that.
@BuddyThomas, If there is no reason for the test except to make sure, I think that type of test is the most invasively uncomfortable and something that I have attempted to avoid all my 70 years. I was successful until last summer when I got that staph infection and they got all upset and concerned that since they couldn't find the source of the infection (or symptom) that they had to check my heart to be sure the nothing had settled there. (something I never heard of, but, apparently my chest was to thick to get a good picture externally) So, they froze my throat, that was an experience in itself, and by the time they inserted the tube I was out enough to not really notice it. However, as I woke up, it was awful. I started coughing and couldn't stop. Fortunately, a nurse had a magical way to get it to stop. She told me to breath in with my nose and out with my mouth and that stopped it. But, it still wasn't fun.
That does sound bad especially if it is kids playing. I hope the people in charge will take appropriate action after reading your email.
I'm sorry the weather is messing up your lesson track, I can imagine that's very frustrating.Just got a call from my school district, we are closed tomorrow. We are still under blizzard conditions until around midnight and no plows are going out on the roads in our county until 4 am tomorrow.I only live a couple blocks from school, so I think I'll still go in and do some of the make up hours I have to do. I have never been so honestly unhappy to have so many school closures in my life! We haven't had a fully week of school since the first full week of January and we are in the 5th week of the quarter. I'm getting so behind on my lesson track. Sorry, rant over....
My mum's health is up and down but the real issue is her diminishing cognitive abilities. It breaks my heart to see my once fearless mum slowly change into a confused insecure old lady.The like is for being back where you want to be again and working...!!!
How is your mothers health, if you don’t mind me asking? Well, I hope...!!!
There has to be a reason he would want you to have one. I would ask him why. I mean would it be an elective procedure? In order for the insurance company to approve it anyway, there has to be a reason unless they are considering it "standard of care" now? If you have symptoms of something that is steering your physician to order this test, then I get that. If there are no symptoms, then I would totally question it.Hey everyone. So, the older I get, the more tests my doctor is making me get. So far, I’ve had the dreaded colonoscopy, the stress test for heart, echocardiogram, and on Friday, I have to have an upper endoscopy, where they apparently knock you out and then stick a tube with a camera on it down your throat to look around. I think this is unnecessary. If he would just ask, I’d tell the doc what’s down there: 300 cases of wine.
But seriously, has anyone had this procedure done and know what to expect?
I almost want to cancel because I found out that my health insurance won’t cover this because it is diagnostic and not preventative, and I have a $2,000 deductible to meet. Grrrrr.
No snow here, but wind gusts of up to 60mph.
Sorry your mum is not doing well. Glad you were able to have a nice trip with her last year.
So pretty What a peaceful place.
Oh that is terrible! I saw a headline here that a house roof was blown off about 2 miles from my house. The wind is ridiculous.Feel your pain. 65 mph wind and dropping temp to single digits this evening. Downspouts gone. Bath roof vent has a new shape. Bathroom leaves and tiny sticks this morning all over as it blew in through the ducts and out fan. Who expects to step on sticks on floor first thing in morning?
Joy Joy.
That is good to hear. That kind of behavior should not be tolerated.
I still would have gone with a cruise. Best of both worlds. Ocean view and family activities. Just my opinion.
Apparently the calendar is better at predicting the end of winter as opposed to a rodent.
