• @justmim Mim, I am doing well. I just re-opened my eBay store and have the books back on line.
    Edgar has the same problem with discomfort in the hospital or emergency room waiting room chairs. When I went to Community North for a kidney stone attack in January the 2nd DD was free to take me. Then the youngest was with me when I was carried in for the broken hip. But DH was pretty worn out from his daily trips to the rehab hospital . I know that he and your DH are much alike in being faithful to their very core. God love each of them!!!
    Our DDIL a DGD and Great grandson will be here 2 nights this week. They will be attending a funeral in Fort Wayne on Wednesday. We get them coming and going. I am so excited about seeing this 7 month old GGS. I've seen him only once.

  • @justmim Since I have not done any listings recently. I am unaware of any changes. I do use Auctiva so maybe they are taking care of those changes. Will have to wait and see.

    Sorry about your gout pains . You know our now 56 year old son went through a lot of that some 10 years ago. He does not mention it now so I assume that he no longer has that problem. I feel fortunate that I have had very little pain.

  • Hi from me, too. Jean I could not open the link either. But welcome to the Antique Board.

    @justmim
    Mim, Haven't you had enough Pain and suffering without going and getting the gout? Edgar had to go off the Coumadin for a few days before the dentist would extract a tooth. Bruce has been battling gout for several years. I think he told me once than when he quit eating certain things the gout disappeared. And aren't you on enough food denial items?
    For the rest of you. mim is a long time friend and neighbor. So I can give her a bad time if I want to. LOL

  • @justmim ---- I auctioned a rocking horse with the pick up only last week. Worked out O.K. We made sure there were 2-3 people around at pick up time. Helen or bbg

  • @justmim Hi mim. Yes, I was alone for the laser surgery. That was very easy compared to what came next. In the interim between the laser surgery and stitch removal a week later I had 2 kidney stones passing through. Had some strong pain medication with which to stave off a trip to the emergency room on the first one. But couldn’t handle the second round. So called on one of the DDs to take me to ER. We were there about 4 hours after which DD brought me home. I slept for 24 hours. I think I can see how people become drug addicts. Sure was a good sleep.
    I'm back on track now. I am enjoying the current stretch lovely sunny days here in Indy. And all the hoopla about the Super Bowl. Hope that you are able to enjoy it , too.

  • @justmim I am told that one of the fashions for this year is arm warmers. Well I made my own arm warmers last year. I took a wool sweater and cut the sleeves off at the shoulders. I then cut a hole in the ribbed cuff for my thumb. For the past week or so I've been wearing them most of the time. Couldn't' find leg warmers in the local stores last year so ordered some on eBay. Would have preferred wool but did not find those.
    The aunt who moved to St. Louis was a real shopper. I think that she based her southern city opinion on the lackadaisical attitude of the store clerks. I know that she mentioned that attitude in her comments.
