Just means you haven't been caught...

WISHER, if you won't go to the doctor for YOU, please go for ME. I have the same symptoms - even eating a small meal wears me out and I take a nap. Some days I end up sleeping 2/3 of the day - no joke. I have no energy sometimes skip meals for the day because it's too much trouble.

You go and tell me what the doctor says and does to you. If I can tolerate it, I may go to my doctor. Everyone tells me it's low thyroid. I have been checked so many times for that my blood must be down a quart.

drumstick in all of those thyroid tests they did, did they ever check for low iron?

is this the thread for SAD(seasonal affective disorder folks). I mentioned that Jo ann fabrics often has the Ott lights 50% off - I don't know if they do right now BUT, right now they have a 50% off coupon on any regular priced items you can print out online and use in store or online. Good only through Thursday. Just sign up for their emails fast. This means someone could also buy fiskars, etc. if they are not otherwise on sale at this time.

I hardly need stuff from there but the 50% off coupons are great. You can also use them at their competitors like Michael's.

dsgard - no they didn't but, once a year I get a cbc - lipid profile, other stuff. I am no vegan - I love meat though do have to admit since menopause they said not to get iron supplements in vitamins, etc. I do also eat a lot of turkey and chicken. This has been going on for many years and I've been told, I am lazy, I am depressed, I am bored.

Wow!!! I stand corrected Oz! Fiskars products are not (at least some) made in the USA! I better go grab my sister-in-law before she hurts herself! She is under the delusion she has been working at a Fiskars factory for over 20 years and is expecting to retire very soon! Poor girl,
Vehve - where ever they are produced, Finland designs one very high quality product, IMHO.

Think I need more coffee. Going to my safe place now.

Chicki, I spoke to a manager of one of their own shops, and asked about the axes. He said that out of the first models that came out, a few had broken, but the materials have since been improved. And we used the folding shovels in the military, we put those through a heck of a lot of abuse, and I never saw one break. The shears are less durable though, the blades bend if you try to cut through metal with them. But I think any shears would do that. I have been very happy with every one of their products I've ever had. I think I'm up to about 30-40 different kitchen and gardening products and tools. Oh, actually, I have broken a Fiskars rake once. But that was a 20 year old plastic rake.

diva I doubt you are lazy bored I would believe. When you are surrounded by _______ (fill in the blank any way you see fit)
BTW I do believe OttLights are on 50% sale at JoAnn this week. Not sure exactly when the sale is over. JoAnn runs their specials on odd days.

Go see the doc, Wisher.

I was declined for low hemoglobin once. It was the first time I was going to give blood. That was during my military service, we had a 15 mile full gear running competition the day before, and apparently you shouldn't drink a gallon of water before giving blood. Now I try to go every few months, it's starting to be time again.

Virpi again ate her 20 corn kernels. And she's been cleaning her feathers and moving her head around, even took a few steps. Slightly promising. But she's still not interested in drinking. Of course, the corn is wet so she is getting some fluids.

Come on, Virpi!

Hey! I'm not that slow! I'm still moving a little.

Mess with me Dude, and I'll tell people you are buying up Ayam Cemanis to cross with New Hampshires. Yeah, tell them you are trying to make Halloween chickens, I will!

They will come after you carrying torches and pitchforks.

Get 'em Wisher.
