Title: Stopping by to see how everyone is doing
Post by: SarahLouise on August 14, 2017, 08:24:37 PM
Hi everyone, its been many moons since I came here.  I actually had to re-register because I forgot my password.  Then it didn't like my name saying there was already someone here with that name, but when I tried I forgot my password, it said there was no name associated with that email.

Oh well.

I miss you all very much, but have limited data on my internet plan.

Sarah Louise

p.s. Do you have to verify everytime you post?   That could be a pain.

Welcome back.

You just have to verify a few times, not every time.  As far as I can tell, it keeps out bots.  The rest is done by a wonderful moderator team.

The mods might be able to merge your accounts if you remember anything about it.

Welcome back to Susan's Place. I found your old account however there is a little problem. We had a major system upgrade shortly after you left and some of the field needed to reunite you with your account are no longer there. Cindy has seen this post so possibly she will be able to return you to your old account. Your email address has changed from your current one and that might be part of the reason your having difficulty getting the old account back. Anyway, In need to post the following because if I don't, somebody else will.

Hey girl, long time no talk to! I'm glad you stopped in.  :)  How's life treating you? Your eyes OK?

The verification is just your first few posts, it will go away.

Hugs, Devlyn

Its nice to see that most of the "oldtimers" are still around.

My health is fair, but I have had a couple of problems.  I am showing signs of Diabetic Retinopathy and the cataracts are getting worse (but they can be corrected with surgery), my most dangerous happening was I lost 1/2 of my red blood cells.  Normal is 14 to 16 I was down to 8, I went to see the doctor because of dizziness he checked me over and was ready to send me home when he decided to do a blood test, he Freaked when it came back, he was mad at me and himself for not catching it.  He looked at me and said you don't look pale, you need to go Directly To The Emergency room (do not collect 200 dollars when you pass Go).  They scoped my throat and rectum and found minor issues but nothing to explain the loss of that much red blood (I had been having black stool).  Six months later I am almost back to normal (13.5) so I guess I survived that one.

I feel fine and have lost 45 pounds over the last two years and will be under 200 in just 5 more pounds.

I still do Living Trusts for the lawyer, he is 88 now.

Other than that it is just every day life, which I seem to be enjoying.
