Suzanne, I hope your surgery went well. Let us know how you are doing. Make sure you take those happy pills to keep the pain down.

Rich are you sure you wanna know?

 

[smkchick]

Yes, hope it went well. I am having fits with the website, so I haven't been on so much.
And do take the happy pills! Yummy.

Rich, how far away from you is executive plaza in Yonkers?
Hubby has school next week, even though he made a face, I told him you may need a delivery.
We'll see....

And welcome to all the newbies! I'm Roberta, and I am the craziest one here!

roberta, also the most loved!

Hello Everyone; If you need help w/ your chickens after the surgery I could swing by and give you a hand(bad choice of words) Once the lab I worked at in Plainview moved to St. Louis I retired . At least don't work at a job where I receive a 1099 at the end if the year. I lived in Ithaca and would move back up there in a minute. Once when my son was little we brought him up there for a visit . As we were passing several farms he wanted to know " What that smell was?" I turned to him and said "That's Nature" Several hours later he turns to me and says with the truest Long Island accent-"Have ya had enough natua yet?? I just wanted to die. Right then and there I new he was a Long Islander and I better start loving it.(No I don't want to hurt anyones feelings, but I was born to dig in the dirt; and unfortunately I can't live out on the North Fork. Carol

Carol, I was born and raised on the south shore in nassau and you can't much more lawn guyland than that. But i always felt i was born in the wrong place at the wrong time. there's no such thing as too much natchur.

thanks for all the well wishes everyone. I'm home and resting although not too comfortably. I have this huge bulky sling. And they gave me a nerve block, so my arm is completely dead and will be for a few more hours. lots of nonsense this morning that delayed things. they let me use the phone though and once i chewed a few people out things started rolling. anyway, no pain yet but the happy pills are standing by...

A friend that had the same surgery told me his doc told him to take the happy pills before the block wore off. This way way you won't have to wait for meds to kick in and give you relief. I will see my Orthopedic guy on Tue. I hope I don't need surgery. I also heard to follow all the way through with the physical therapy. It is a huge part of your recovery and success of not re injuring it. Well I wish you the best with the pain and also a complete and full recovery.

Hey Al, I see you are online. Sorry to hear you aren't feeling the best.

Atta Girl!!

I'm sure it will suck in the morning.
Just don't use your arm for a while.

Thanks, Rich. Hope things go well at the ortho for you. Looks like most this flock has broken wings.

Suzanne, I agree with Roberta, it is not going to be fun this morning. Keep the happy pills close at hand.

Feel better.

i took the happy pill when the block started to wear off. i'm not in a lot of pain and i hate the way the drugs make me feel so i'll probably stick to regular tylenol without the codeine.
