Two weeks holiday Options

[Psyche]

Hi everybody!
I'm taking 2 weeks' holiday today. Looking forward to it.

It would be great if some poet members would set up some challenges in Acropolis. It would be a fantastic gesture, considering that we hardly have any active staff at the moment.

And by the way, if some members of MM think they would like to belong to the staff, be a moderator, help with comments, etc., then please do PM Eira (Snow), Lori and myself (Psyche), when I return. Of course the few acting staff would consider your offer, because that's how all forums work.

All the best to everybody,
Syl

You and Lori have really been through it! I've seen a pain management specialist for my leg trouble; I'm trying to stay away from pain meds so far. Just walking with cane or rolling walker. Only other trouble is 'g' key on my computer. May have to send the whole computer in just to get that fixed! Oh, how silly our difficulties seem, huh. Remember those days before the internet?

empathizing with you, Daniel

Yep, we've had a tough time. I keep thinking back about my stupid fall inside a bungalow. No steps, no obstacles of any kind. Plop! Ouch! Still, I've been searching Internet about falls of people who have Fibromyalgia. And there I think I found the explanation. We have between 3 and 10% more chances of falling than other people. Period.
Daniel, I hope your pain specialist finds a solution for your leg trouble. But pain specialist give you exactly what you've been trying to avoid: pain meds. I take Tramadol 50mg. with Paracetamol 500mg. It keeps the pain tolerable, except on exceptional days. The harsh winter climate this year hasn't helped, it's the worst in decades.
Climate change involves extremes of heat, cold, storms, floods, etc.

Hey, I don't understand why the 'g' doesn't work. Can't you just take the keyboard to be fixed? When keyboards get really old, one usually just throws them out and buys another one.

I have lovely memories of my childhood and adolescence without Internet! I did an awful lot of reading, horseback riding, bicycling or getting up to mischief.

Thanks for the empathy, and I'll be thinking of you as well. Best of luck,
