| GREETINGS GARDENWEB!!!! I HAVE RETURNED!!!! Doing the happy dance here! Our computer bit the big one whilst we were gone - did the same thing LAST time we left too - so had to send it off to get fixed. We JUST got it back, along with a note informing us there was a T-REX in the works!! NOW we know what happened to the dinosaurs!!
Anyway, home again, 3 weeks post surgery, so far so good. Am completely off Darvocet (first time since last October - withdrawal sucks, BTW) and taking Ultram for pain - but not that much pain left!! I still have some swelling in my neck and am still not as active as I want to be, but I am gaining on it. Every week I can do more than I could the previous week. Thanks so much for all your kind thoughts. I missed the heck out of ya'll! Hope Florence is doing well. And everybody else, for that matter! XOXOXOXOX |

| Hi Pagan! Good to have you back. Keep on healing. |

| Morning Madame. |

| It's so good to hear you're home and mending well. You had me really worried when we didn't hear for such a long time. I don't know much about meds, but it sounds as if that horizon is looking better as well. Ann |

| PAAAAGAAAN :) So good to see you! Hey, Ultram is my favorite poison :) Withdrawal is not so bad from that, BTW so you should be good from here on out on that score! Watch the dosage/seizure threshold thingy is an important reminder tho because it's a tad unusual and scaryish if one isn't careful. I'm so glad to hear that you are doing well :) Man, you should have seen me crossing everything all this time... I'm very sore you know :) Take care! |

| Pagan--I'm glad to see you again. Happy to hear you are healing! melanie |

| Hi Pagan, so glad to see you online again and recovering from your surgery. Keep up the good healing! We missed you here. Kathy |
|
| Welcome back, Pagan. You had us wondering--so long since we had heard from you. Thanks for the update and glad to hear you are feeling better and quite optimistic about the future. Take care, |
|
| Happy for you. Now I can e-mail you! Did you read the post where I said I spoke to you. Good to see you back! Carla |

| thanks ALL! I missed the heck out of chatting with everybody... I am far too glad to be back online - computer withdrawal is worse then drug withdrawal!! Haven't been out to the garden to check the status yet, beyond a quick cursory glance at everybody. Max the Moo peed on a couple of plants to let them know the Lord and Master has returned... Looks like I have lost darn near ALL the plants I ordered from ARE last spring, which is a tad annoying. I spoke to them about it and they will make it right, even though I am outside of the guarantee time period. I planted lots of plants from RU and Ashdown at the same time and only lost 1 of them, so I think it reflects more on the plants then the practice... having a good fall flush otherwise though! |

| Pagan-----I'm so happy to see you back and feeling well--- I'm doing OK but still using Darvocet-------It seems the older you get the longer it takes to heal plus our emotional upset with SIL leaving DD while she was here during my surgery-- ( it was so sneaky) I think that upset kind of set back recovery a bit--(at least that is what all the Dr. say)----- but I am up and walking using a cane. Please--- Please stay away from all store displays---- I'm almost paranoid about anyone or anything bumping my hip----- It is great to see you back----- Fondly, Florence-- |

Welcome back hope you can be free of pain soon!  |

| Joe ---I love your waterlilly pictures------make me remember wonderful days on the lake where I grew up---- I had an old rowboat and it was refreshing to reach into the cool water on a hot summer day and pick a waterlilly thanks for another nice memory-- Florence |

| Glad to read that both of you are doing good! I'm looking at 5 days in the hospital Nov 26th IIRC to go in a clinical trial using med pumps. This will be a band aide until I can get the rods out of my back once we are settled in the new house. Our computer bit the big one whilst we were gone - did the same thing LAST time we left too - so had to send it off to get fixed. I wonder if there is something going around? I had 3 computers go down, 2 so far are back online, but the hard drives had to be reformatted with windows reloaded. For some reason the master boot record is corrupt. |
