Hiya Ruth!

->  hn> finding jeans in a 29 inseam is nie on to impossible with a waist
->  hn> larger than 32! And when you get a waist above 42 it's more unlikely

-> OK, I understand.

life just keeps getting tougher (grin)

of

->  hn> Native Korean, who married a GI, moved to America and consequently

-> 
->  hn> abandoned by the GI husband and left to raise 3 kids on her own. 
Once
->  hn> she got a good job and benefits and was doing quite well for herself
->  hn> and the kids...the dirtbag shows up again and tried to take over her

had

->  hn> he ended up going to
->  hn> prison...for something unrelated...but it's where he should have been
->  hn> all along!
-> 
-> It sounds like she is much better off now without him.  I've seem both

same here, a sad commentary on our society that people are just as easliy 
discarded as objects.

-> ->  hn> I dunno....I've never been in a walmart....have no plans to ever 
make

than

-> Truce!  Before we get into a heavy political discussion, let's call it

(chuckle) that works for me!

-> Tonight I'll reheat some of the left over (from Christmas) turkey; maybe
-> mix it with a can of cream of mushroom soup and a can of mushrooms &
-> serve it over rice with a veggie.  No brainer, minimal time on the feet

Seems to me that you've been bounced around long enough, it's time to put 
your foot down (figuratively!!) and demand some response and a reliable 
diagnosis that can get you on the track to being whole again! To make the 
run into Tripler and spend an hour of your time waiting just to find out it was

all for naught....well it just isn't right!
chat with you soon!
