Isn't life beautiful!

[Epson]

The rain has gone away and the flowers are blooming, of course I can't go out to enjoy them, but I can look out the window with 70 spf sunscreen and enjoy them or use my infrared night vision goggles to look at them after the sun goes down.  My neighbors hate my night vision goggles because they allow me to cut my grass at 11:00PM, that's why they make ear plugs, dummy!

I mean isn't life all about taking lemons and making lemon aid?  Well, I stopped making lemon aid so I have to go back to the hospital for more surgery.  There's more traffic going in and out of my bladder then Chicago's O'Hair airport and I am tired of it!  I feel like I am standing in front of the monkey cage at the zoo while the monkeys fling poop at me and I can't find any cover!

Yesterday's sleep test didn't go well either, new rule, if you have Sjogren's, you don't have to deal with anymore health problems!

Gosh Epson, I'm so sorry things are not so good for you right now. 

I am happy though to see that you still maintain your sense of humor, your posts make me LOL. 

Keeping you in my thoughts!

OOH Epson,

As I read this, I am swaying as I recline back, in my hanging chair listening to the breeze blow thru the trees.The sun is shining, my dog Elroy, is by my side. I am in the shade, the breeze is comfortably cool, my lap top sits comfortably on my lap. You get the picture. I am in my happy space on my front deck.

Uh oh Elroy's all wound Up, Now I have to get Up and untangle him.

Oh well he managed to get in the lounge chair and he is happy now.

Epson I always appreciate how you frame your issues, you make pretty funny pictures out of your circumstances.

I really do hope they get your bladder traffic into control, and you can become more like our Arkansas XNA in and out traffic.

And now, DO YOU REALLY use night vision goggles.   to mow in the night. REALLY  

We will all..... here in your sjoggy world, protect you from those mean monkey's.   Remember we cheer you on in all the bad stuff this SJS battle throws at you.

Keep us posted on your progress.   Blessings kimbo

Epson,
I find that when we stop poking fun or laughing at what has been dealt to us....that is when we are in trouble. Attitude is everthing. Sometimes that is all we have.

Take Care!

Thanks for the posts; I am new to the forum; logged on an hour ago and have been jumping from link to link from the post about legislation. sent the link to the page to our celiac support info lady.

Really interesting.

Reply to present line -- yes. Now I know why I enjoy the view from inside so much. Have lots to learn here. Like, is coffee ok, or does that help deplete hydration, even tho it helps to get me jump-started.

Thanks in advance for any info or time/attention given.

Like to 'hear' the banter. Sounds like music to my ears.

Hi to all,

Epson,

I feel so bad for you.  What is up with your bladder now?  I know you have a great sense of humor, but right now, I just am so sorry for all you are going through.  Sometimes, it just gets to be too much.  With all that said, I'm praying things will soon look up for you.

Ohhh Epson...more surgery!! I'm sorry about that!

I totally agree with Vicky....it is vital to be able to maintain our sense of humor and a good attitude through all of this....and if/when we lose that....we are big trouble!!

I hope your bladder traffic and the monkey poop Frisbees slow down for you!

Keep us posted!

[Epson]

Well, it seems that my kidney is blocked again and will have another stent installed, that makes this nightmare 8 months long, one more month and maybe I'll give birth to something.  Hopefully I will know more tomorrow.

Epson, Say, are you selling tickets for the lawn mowing at midnight with the night vision goggles or for whatever you are going to give birth to???

All kidding aside, Epson, I am so glad that you are maintaining that wild sense of humor that you have. Like was said earlier, sometimes humor is all we have cause we are so drained emotionally and physically. I get to the point where I wonder why we even go to the doctor. Sometimes I just put off making an appt. Hopefully, the traffic will slow down to your bladder. Hope the stent goes in fast and that you feel better after it is in.

You have had a heck of a year. LIke has been said before these autoimmune diseases just keep on giving. Please take care of yourself cause we need you around here to keep us in line. Let us know how things are going for you.(pardon the pun) Irish

I say put on the night vision goggles....wait till the monkeys are asleep...and throw

the poop right back at em!!!! I do appreciate your humor with it all. I hope you know

you are in my prayers and you take a lot of stress away. Just don't move to Texas

near my best friend...her mother will shoot you if you mow in the night...heck she

almost shot her own daughter....lol...true story!
