Well NCOT,

It sounds like you had a good time! I am really happy for you. Sounds like you and this guy hit it off. I hope it can be a continuous thing for you. If that is what you would like...

My weekend was the same old, same old... I baked a chicken today and it came out real good. We had mash potatoes, gravy, stuffing and a salad. It was pretty yummy. Now I could take a nap, but it is getting too late for that now. Oh well, I will nap double tomorrow. Ha!

I hope you have a good night with restful sleep.

Hugs, Karen...

I don't think anything romantic will happen, not least because he's almost 20 years younger than me and I don't really do toyboys... <_<. Also he's going to uni in September, so that will take him away from the local area most of the time.

Your dinner sounds delicious. I needed to keep it cheap today, after having a 5 Guys burger and fries yesterday, so just had some ramen with eggs.

Thanks :p

NCOT, you ever tried nortriptyline for the pain? That's the best reliever of pain that I've found for my bowels and esophagus (and I've tried a lot of things). I came off it a few months ago and could barely walk for the pain, now I'm back on it and the pain is back down to 2-5 and thankfully I know how to ease it before bed so I can sleep.

The next best thing I've found is the hot water bottle and TENS machine.

Also have you ever tried cabbage juice for your crohns? It really helped my gastritis when I had it.
