2010, now that's weird sounding
Comments (22)Gean, I can see where the adjustment from coastingrosarian to wearyrosarian would be a tough one. Just when they're all in the ground - boom! Gotta go! But that is also a selling point for your buyers. Maintenance-free :)) already-in-the-ground, blooming roses! Such a deal!! Have your photo album at the ready for every showing until spring. Once spring comes you'll have buyers banging on the door with competing offers. Ya think maybe it might work out that way? Hope so. We're a bit chilly here in the Sunshine state. The high might have gotten to 46!!! with cloud cover. Supposed to be 25 tonight. Keep your fingers crossed that the clouds stick around. If it clears up, what little heat we have will fly away, and the mercury will drop like a rock. They said it would be 25 last night, but it only got to about 30. Maybe they'll be wrong again tonight. I feel for all of you guys buried under snow. You're stronger than I am and hardier, heartier gardeners, too. I hope you have a 'happy medium' of enough precipitation and as little snow as possible the rest of the winter. Is it too much to hope for an early, lasting spring?

Comments (4)Did your weather suddenly turn colder 2-3 weeks ago? If so, the night time temperature in your condo may be falling further that it was before. Most modern automatic thermostats employ an anticipation feature. If you program the thermostat to warm up the house to 70 degrees at 7:00 AM, it will cycle on and off before that time so that by 7:00 AM, the temperature is at 70 degrees. As the weather gets colder, the anticipation feature needs to kick in earlier and earlier so that your desired temperature is reached by the time you've programmed. Many automatic thermostats will allow you to turn off the anticipation feature. Your thermostat owner's manual will tell you how. Once you've turned anticipation feature off, the heat won't come on until the time you've programmed....See MoreAll the symptoms I've experienced!!!!!
Comments (34)I'm 54 and have had quite severe menopausal symptoms since I had a partial hysterectomy (due to a fibroid the size of a grapefruit) at age 48. Since then, there were a few times I thought I was going to die from weird symptoms. This year my chronic headaches have evolved into a number of episodes with severe migraines. For years I've not been able to get a full night's sleep without a mild tranquilizer. The good news is that I have the support of a naturopathic doctor in addition to my family physician. I've been exercising regularly which has helped my arthritis symptoms immensely. My tolerance to caffeine is currently nil, so I opt for herbal tea. I suffer from anxiety and depression and I'm learning to turn my ANTS into CATS (automatic negative thinking into constructive automatic thinking) ...it takes time to re-train the brain. Guided meditation is also helpful - there's lots available on the Net. I do not respond well to any type of stress (coping with daily life is a challenge) but I refuse to take hormone replacement therapy. Instead I opt for herbal supplements such as ashwagandha, rhodiola and 5-HTP. Hot flushes are the least of my issues, but I admit waking up with a full-body sweat in the middle of the night is no fun at all. In addition to all this nonsense, I have food sensitivities and therefore, avoid highly processed foods. Also, I'm on a high protein diet and have vitamin B-12 injections once per week. Evidently, hope exists....See MoreAnxiety Attacks
Comments (59)I've been having a lot of symptoms of peri-menopause since July. I've been doing research and my dh is a physician, so I kind of run stuff by him a lot. Anyway my symptoms started with that weird "out of sorts feeling" like I wanted to crawl out of my skin. Then I started having anxiety attacks in the most unlikely places, like the grocery store. I talked to my obgyn about it and they said "we could prescribe an anti-depressant" but I knew I wasn't depressed so I said no. (Hate the side effects). I said what about anti-anxiety medication just in case this happens at work or if I feel really out of control. She said "well, anxiety is not clinically associated with peri-menopause so you will have to ask your internist." But the weird thing is that on every menopause forum (like this one) women talk about anxiety. So at least I didn't feel crazy. I only found one clinical study that associated anxiety with hot flashes. To make a long story short, I went to my internist and asked for Xanax for anxiety. It was hard to do anyway and she wasn't eager to prescribe it so I felt like a jerk. I wanted to say "look lady, I'm not a drug addict." I just wish there was more help for us in this phase of our lives and I'm sorry for all the women on this forum who have to go through it and feel humiliated to boot. So anyway, that was about a month ago and I have taken the Xanax 3 times, at night when feeling anxious to help me sleep. It's been a great blessing. I know it's not a natural remedy, but I tried everything else and it hasn't helped much. I just think the best approach is to tell our docs that we are having anxiety attacks and not blame it on peri-menopause because they don't believe it's related....See MoreMkj Bar
