dragonstar13 I was diagnosed with sleep apnea about 8 years ago and was put on a CPAP. What a world of difference. I quit having the horrible dreams of drowning and suffocating. I woke up refreshed and stopped falling asleep at work; I could focus and for the first time in...

dragonstar13 It's been cool here for the last few days, just barely breaking 100. Last week it was miserable, humidity 90 - 100 percent and 101 - 107 degrees. I hate the hot weather and am looking forward to retirement so I can get the heck outta here.

dragonstar13 When I get home, I go to my room and change my clothes, then I lay down or read for ten or fifteen minutes. After allowing myself a transition period to go from high pressured career woman to grandma, I go downstairs and spend time with my grandkids.

What the heck are these discussions about? Do you have any idea?

ctrymuziklvr @ctrymuziklvr (11057) • United States 6 Aug 07

I was looking through discussions with no responses and couldn't find very many to respond to. All I could find were words like Salman, Naruto, Mourindo, Pwrage, Buri-Al something and so many others. I figured out that some were...

dragonstar13 I agree with you 1000 percent. I rarely respond to discussions here anymore because of the nonsense and garbage posts. Like you, I have no clue what a lot of these people are talking about. I usually check out my friend's discussions first, but I've...

dragonstar13 You invent it, I'll buy it! I don't care what the price. I am losing my hearing as I get older and find myself saying "What?" over and over. I've often wished I had a remote to turn up the grandkids, cause each time I say what they either repeat it softer or...

dragonstar13 Good for you, Wolfie. You need to get out of there. Don't fall for his mister nice guy routine. He is attempting to manipulate you, play along so he doesn't get suspicious but don't let yourself get caught in the trap. Don't think he will change, any change...

ctrymuziklvr @ctrymuziklvr (11057) • United States 15 Jul 07

dragonstar13 I eat one every chance I get. Having so many grandkids is great because it gives me an excuse to always have ice cream and cones in the house. My all time favorite is rocky road, but any ice cream tastes great in a cone.

dragonstar13 Wolfie, I think I've missed something in your discussions, but from what I've read it seems you are in an abusive relationship and have decided to leave. If that is true... In a previous post you said you had made your bed and now have to lie in it. It...

My favorite flower is the lilac. In Toronto where I spent my first 20 years the lilacs bloomed right around my birthday (end of May). I would receive them as gifts and everywhere I would go I would smell the sweet fragrance of...

dragonstar13 Is she rude just to you or to everybody. If it's just you, confront her and ask why she treats you badly. If it's everybody, then you should tell the manager.
