    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them.

    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

A good laugh for you about my life

lol man I begin to think I need to really earn a Darwin award at times.
as some Know I am disable ( remember ) I recently lost my disablilty (due to getting married, which makes no since a lot of the time). Well I have been trying to find a Job ( yeah I know it hard ) but given my history and the risk that I would possible be for their insurance. I not holding much luck/hope at this point. any how. I was told I have to monitor my blood sugar levels. ( about Christmas time) I have had a lot of lightheaded and minor blacking out events( I don't remember going form point a -b but I gotten there ok ( so far) and along with the other signs of it. I never though of it cause I am always pushing myself past my limits to get what ever I assigned myself to do that day done.
Well today I set myself the basic ( simple) task of cleaning almost the entire house( including my wife's and mine laundry) so far I done dishes, vacuuming( up and down stairs) most the laundry, bagging up all the trash to go out, and as well as cleaning the reptile tubs( this was not on the list until tomorrow) Well in the 2 hours it taken me to do above items.my blood sugar level has gone from roughly a 126 to a low 80s ( based on the info I was given the 80s level is normal if fasting for blood work), I know with me if i get below 83-73 I start to get the shakes, headache and all those not so great systems. at 64 and lower I can pass out. which make no sense to me at time. It seems that in my family ( so far ) if there is a medical issue I seem to get it in one form or another. I have cerebral palsy(reason I am on disability)( my legs will give out for not reason also making me a higher fall risk), the diabetic issues( hypoglycemic) at times ( in my book I can burn the sugar faster than the body willing to release it ) I have back issues ( most likely from abusing myself by lifting heavy items all the time/ partly due to the Cerebral Palsy ) ( my lower back seems to arch a little more than normal people and cause it to pinch ( feeling) in the lower back ( I can walk with out pain/discomfort if I am leaning on a shopping cart while in the store I can get around a little better /longer than I can without it.) and who knows what else they may find wrong with me in the future lol. I am a walking( gimping/waddling test subject if they wanted one lol)

I can say outside of my loving wife and my reptiles My life sucks royally to the point I would probably be a hermit type person you read about in the newspaper. I hate to see what would happen to me if I had to work a real job ( coming to that )
 
I guess my sense of humor must have left me, because I really didn't see anything to laugh about there....... :shrug01:
 
lol I know WebSlave I just could nt figure a good title so I used what popped into my head ( one of those if you could see/feel how I was right then when I typed it up my sugar was low so I may of not made much sense. ( also I found out the spellchecker for internet explore is for 32 bit of the and not the 64bit I use ( so there goes my proper spelling help lol )
 
The spell check button here on this forum when you make a post should work on both 32 bit and 64 bit operating systems.
 
At least you find humor in all those negative issues. Thats a plus. Keep your head up and keep your health as your main priority and you will be fine!!
 
well the spell checker ( when you spell check needs to be installed ( and it keeps wanting t be installed every time I click WebSlave) but it ok I also upgraded to ie explore 10 so it might a bug with it still lol..

Well I have 2 lovely low sugars since last night one about 10 pm while wife and I were chitchatting before bed and one earlier today while a friend visited me. needless to say the sudden drops are a pain in the ass. I had checked it a little before he came by and it was fine about 105 he was not here 30 minutes and he said I looked pale. (I went to get up and checked it and fell right out into his lap practically) needless to say he was panicking puts me on my side and goes grabs the stuff to check it a whopping 62. well I came around real fast when he was pricking my finger and almost busted him in the face out of reflex lol. needless to say I now have my wife's sister watching me to make sure I am not breaking anything.
