pdbman - 2010-10-25 1:44 PM So Rhoda, any updates on the apple orchard plans?

Ugh...  what a pain in the you know what.

The guy selling the farm won't even really talk to us to answer questions because he doesn't think we'll get a loan approved.  Which, quite honestly, we probably won't.  But my husband is still going through the process of the credit checks with the bank, etc.  This farm is really a great opportunity but I wish I could convince my husband to start a little smaller...  and build from there.  He's the kind of guy that doesn't exactly know how to take things slowly, though, you know what I mean? 

The good news for me is that I don't have to worry about finding a new job with health insurance, etc and don't have to worry about messing up coverage for my daughter's surgery in February.  It's the little things like health coverage for my family that make me happy! 

We aways say "if it is meant to be, it'll happen." Surgery doesn't sound like fun though. I hope your daughter is OK.

That's the way I'm looking at it!  This one, I can't control...  I have plenty of other stuff that I can influence that I need to focus on.  I'm personally hoping nothing is happening with the farm because I'm really destined to win the lottery soon!Wink

My daughter is good...  she was actually born with a "hole in her head", as we lovingly refer to it.  On the crown of her scalp, there was a small opening with no skull bone and no skin - just the membrane over her brain.  The skull eventually closed up and the skin formed a scar.  We are very fortunate that mentally and physically she is developing exactly as she should be!  This surgery is just cosmetic, so she doesn't have a bald spot on the top of her head.  She does get questions about it from kids at school and wanted to have this done and over with before kids start to get "mean"  in a few years...  But she has to be put under and she will have to have this done twice.  She's already have the 1st one and she's funny...  she asked the doc if she could shave something cool on her head instead of her scar...  We said no to shaving her head...  but had to promise she could temporarily dye her hair a funky color when it's all done!

pdbman - 2010-10-25 11:46 AM We woke up to white stuff this morning. Its going to make for a cold wet ride at lunch. I should get me some winter riding clothes.


Will you be using your regular bike? Or using attachments? How does winter cycling work? I see crazy people all over Toronto biking all year round... I am considering biking in the winter but I have a feeling there will be no follow through. I'm afraid of getting run over in the summer with dry pavement.

dimplespoo - 2010-10-25 2:41 PM Hey Guys -
I sent the question on the people not posting and not showing up -
-- RedSoxChick came back this morning and told me that she has serious heel/arch pain and she can't run. How do we do her run percentage? I told her to come into the thread and asked to be withdrawn from that part but I haven't seen anything yet.
-- Msmogreen - hasn't gotten over 25% of her time in, when I went to inspire she didn't have anything in her log since the first week of the month and she isn't responding to inspires.

to ironkid on the other team. She came back and told me that we can reduce RedSoxChick down to the time of the month that she could participate but we would have to suck up msmogreen and take the lost since the person not coming by, not participating is all part of the challenge. I doubt she will come back - she hasn't logged into BT since the 10th. I will update RedSoxChick but we still need everyone to give it a huge push this last week if we even want to stand a chance.

Did you PM msmogreen too?  Maybe that would trigger an email rather than just an inspire that she won't see if she doesn't log in?  I don't want to harass the poor person either, though...

mbasta - 2010-10-25 9:32 AM I've been wearing my new shoes since I got home (to make sure they are the ones, there's a 30 day return policy as long as they are in perfect shape still). I'm having no pain going up and down the stairs, which I was while shoeless - a good sign! I'm planning on doing my next run on a treadmill to give them the real test.


Ooops, accidental blank post - editing....

New shoes - I think I missed this convo - new running shoes to prevent injury I assume...?


New shoes so that I hopefully stop injuring myself. 


I am sure it will do wonders - I have to admit before I was fitted I was going by color of shoe (Hated white shoes) well that wasn't how to do it and I suffered with horrible leg/knee pain (have had both knees operated on). I have had slim to no pain with the new shoes unless I am needing a new pair. Last week I realized it was time to order since I was starting to experience lower leg and knee pain during my runs again.

Hope it works well for you.

dimplespoo - 2010-10-24 9:28 PM Hey Everyone -
What a day... Got in double set of my "strength" as a stress reliever today.

This is how the day went..

Got a mani/pedi this morning and came home to find Bo (3 month old puppy) ill. Spent 3 hours in the Emergency Vet to find out something that he ate has irritated the heck out of his GI tract.  No food/water tonight, slowly back on them tomorrow, a doggie version of Pepsid to calm his system down and some penisillion to help ward off infection.

We get home, he jumps out of the truck and pees and then find something to chew up. Why can't he learn.. He is going to make me go premature grey I tell you.


Aww puppy. Hopefully he's well soon! I feel so bad for sick animals because they don't understand why they feel like crap.


Thanks - he is doing better today - hated me and wanted nothing to do with me for most of the day after we got home yesterday.  Today he is just trying to figure out why mommy is giving him 1/8 of his normal dog food and doesn't have free reign on the water bowl.  He is sleeping a bit more today but that is to be expected after the rough day and is tolerating his feed (read not throwing it up within seconds).

I hate white shoes too!! WHY do all women's shoes come in white with some pansy colour attached? (Sorry... I'm not meaning to offend at all. I just want a basic black shoe...) End rant.

So, my new shoes are "white/lightning/electric blue". I guess electric blue is better than mauve.

I used to do the same thing with the colors!  Going to the LRS was, by far, one of the best decisions I have ever made.  It has made a huge difference and I too can really feel it in my "trouble spots" when my shoes are getting worn out.

I don't wear anything but black shoes and will probably never wear the silver shoes again. Frown

Thanks!  I put a towel in the sink so my bf wouldn't use it.  Poor thing is now brushing his teeth and washing his hands in the shower though... I feel bad about it.  I just hope maintenance can get it out so he can have his bathroom sink back.

Very cool. My last pair were silver, black and pink but they were mostly white. These have a tad bit of grey and blue. My new ones are flourescent yellow accent which I think are going to be cool.

Have you tried the old used gum on a string? Also - I had someone turn the water off and take off the pipe below the sink to access it if you have a bend in the pipe and it is above the bend - I think.

We've tried everything.... spent the majority of yesterday afternoon trying to retrieve it.  We couldn't get the stopper out which was one issue then we bought a wrench to remove the pipe but then ended up needing a different wrench for the top part of the pipe (although the bf tried his hardest to get the wrench we had to work) so we gave up.  I dropped it at about 2:30 we didn't give up until about 6. I'm really hoping that maintenance has come by already.... just waiting on a text to let me know it's been rescued.

pdbman - 2010-10-25 1:44 PM So Rhoda, any updates on the apple orchard plans?

Ugh...  what a pain in the you know what.

The guy selling the farm won't even really talk to us to answer questions because he doesn't think we'll get a loan approved.  Which, quite honestly, we probably won't.  But my husband is still going through the process of the credit checks with the bank, etc.  This farm is really a great opportunity but I wish I could convince my husband to start a little smaller...  and build from there.  He's the kind of guy that doesn't exactly know how to take things slowly, though, you know what I mean? 

The good news for me is that I don't have to worry about finding a new job with health insurance, etc and don't have to worry about messing up coverage for my daughter's surgery in February.  It's the little things like health coverage for my family that make me happy! 

We aways say "if it is meant to be, it'll happen." Surgery doesn't sound like fun though. I hope your daughter is OK.

That's the way I'm looking at it!  This one, I can't control...  I have plenty of other stuff that I can influence that I need to focus on.  I'm personally hoping nothing is happening with the farm because I'm really destined to win the lottery soon!Wink

My daughter is good...  she was actually born with a "hole in her head", as we lovingly refer to it.  On the crown of her scalp, there was a small opening with no skull bone and no skin - just the membrane over her brain.  The skull eventually closed up and the skin formed a scar.  We are very fortunate that mentally and physically she is developing exactly as she should be!  This surgery is just cosmetic, so she doesn't have a bald spot on the top of her head.  She does get questions about it from kids at school and wanted to have this done and over with before kids start to get "mean"  in a few years...  But she has to be put under and she will have to have this done twice.  She's already have the 1st one and she's funny...  she asked the doc if she could shave something cool on her head instead of her scar...  We said no to shaving her head...  but had to promise she could temporarily dye her hair a funky color when it's all done!

I'm glad its nothing serious. It sounds like she has a good attitude about it too and that makes a big difference.

pdbman - 2010-10-25 11:46 AM We woke up to white stuff this morning. Its going to make for a cold wet ride at lunch. I should get me some winter riding clothes.


Will you be using your regular bike? Or using attachments? How does winter cycling work? I see crazy people all over Toronto biking all year round... I am considering biking in the winter but I have a feeling there will be no follow through. I'm afraid of getting run over in the summer with dry pavement.

My mountain bike is the only bike I have so that's what I'll be riding.  I spent a winter in England where a bike was the only transportation I had so it shouldn't be any big deal, as long as I don't wimp out. The biggest problem I will have is that it'll be dark when I leave for work and dark when I get home so I'm hoping things will be clear enough at work that I will still be able to go for rides on my lunch break.
