Dear Santa: I want to return to my pre-AN diagnosis exercise level with the energy and motivation like before!

Since this is supposed to be humorous (almost forgotten) - And fly high like supergirl, stretch like Mrs. Incredible and figure like Wonder Woman (Wow - flying and stretching are probably easier; the last one is definitely a "stretch"!)  ;D

Lorenzo, if you can get to a World Market, Tim Tams are called Arnott's and they have a parrot for a logo.  They are sort of like chocolate covered graham crackers...sort of.  They are from Australia. 

I wish for :  1. Winning a major lottery and then we'd all do something fun - my treat, like       throw the biggest Pirate party ever.

                  2.Being on the Oprah show when she has all the AN'ers in the audience and then she decides to do her "Favorite Things" show for all of us.

                  3. That the tinnitus would just go away so that I could enjoy silence once more.

                  4. That a cure for AN is discovered that only requires an injection of our miracle cure and then the AN just disolves away without any risk or side effects.

                  5. That everyone is healthy and happy and that we all have a wonderful Holiday Season and can forget our troubles for awhile.

                  6. Tim Tams for everyone,  ho, ho,  ho!!

Sue, Thanks. Never seen Tim Tams or Arnotts here.  Interesting. I'll look out for them. :)
Have a great festive season all, I'll be off on holiday now for 10 days. Escaping festive season related family activities and concentrating on relaxing instead. Ciao, Lorenzo

 ;)

My company just left.  They got me bumper-guards that strap around me (velcro) to bounce off the walls.  (well, she thought it was funny but, I didn't)  She said she should have gotten that for me.  She left me a present under the tree.  I hope she wasn't serious.  She is stunned at my symptoms.  Some people just can't believe it all. 

Anyway, I would like my hearing back for Christmas.  I know that is not possible so........good health in the future is on my list.

So, I would like good health for my dogs and husband and let me see.........I know; I've been so stressed over the whole AN saga since last summer getting to this point, I'd like a professional hour massage.  (for the killer neck pain, etc.)  Oh, and a much needed trip without stress of traveling.  (maybe an Alaska cruise or trip to Switzerland or Europe to see artwork)  Where is Santa when you need him?



Ho Ho Ho,

 ;D

PS Oh, winning the lottery would help pay all my big med bills and maybe retire for sure, in peace.  (for husband and two dogs; that wouldn't hurt, either)  Oh how about balance for all my AN friends on the forum, ears that don't hurt, numbness going away, no facial pain, no migraines or fatique........or other symptoms of AN. 

I'm giving thanks for all I do have........let me see.........I'm not that good at humor.......more so, in person I can do great at a party.  I'm not that funny online; more of a serious writer.  Let me try.........

Well, I'm still thinking........got it........no problems in the world, no global warming, no pollution.......still serious! 

Here goes; how about a virtual online party where we all connect on the screen.   :P

 :o

Holy-cow........I almost forgot.......man, I must be stressed-out; I want to meet one of the nicest people (who is also famous) and record a duet with him, non-other than, Mr. Joe Cocker.  I gave up a vocal career for privacy.  I have some regrets that I didn't go forth when I was getting there but, enjoy being private with a professional medical career.......BUT, I should have at least met someone I admire (and also, his wonderful wife.......Pam) and put-down an ALL OUT BLASTING song with AKA, John Cocker.  (JOE COCKER too nice for his own good) 

Well, that isn't humorous but, I had to say it because, that is on the "wish-list."

Yes, Oprah is also a wonderful person to meet.   ;)  Thank you Oprah for another year of having you around!

OK, back to funny.........well, we can get "happy" and still stay serious online New Year's Eve.  (and have our Mega-Big-Toasting out the old year and in with the New Year coming soon)

The last wish I can think of now is, NO MORE SPAM IN 07' and clean fun forum full of help/information.

I finally "got-it!"  We could wish for the old-fashioned toilet paper rolls where they aren't thin sheets and lots of air inbetween the T-paper roll.  Remember the days when they were thick and tightly rolled and you didn't find yourself wasting precious time having to go put on new rolls every single day.  (those with a family would understand what I'm saying if they are older and remember the good old quality days when, things were made better)  Now that to me is funny but, true. 

I know it has nothing to do with AN's but, I could tie it in somehow if necessary.  These are jokes for AN people since they have suffered, I guess.  *(including me)

Is that funny about the T-paper?  I'm not really sure.  I'm not a jokester.



Good night....
