Topic: RE: Happy Thanksgiving Fibro sisters
And a very happy Thanksgiving to you and yours too! Wow 10", that's a bunch of snow. We rarely get snow this early in the season, I can only remember one Thanksgiving when we had a big old storm and my hubby had to drive 15 mi. up in the mountains to get his parents down to our place for dinner, that was a loooong day! I'm going totally lazy this year gravy in a jar, stove top stuffing and I had green bean casserole left over from potluck Sun. So all I had to do was pop the turkey breast in, now that's a good turkey day!

I hope you all have a wonderful Thanksgiving!!!
Try not to stress ( which we all know is impossible) but it sounds good.....
We got 10 inches of snow yesterday.
Hopefully we can all sleep and rest tonight!!
Much love to all of you,
Pam

I love to cook too like your sis and it really irks me that the fibro is getting so bad that I can't do what I want to as far as cooking goes. Hope your little one is better and that you can get some sleep. Enjoy the holiday!

Topic: oh the pain..........RELIEF
I discovered something wonderful. Besides my electric blanket, which is soooooooooooo helpful with the pain, I found an electric throw at BJs. Sunbeam makes them. They are so nice to have while I'm just sitting in my recliner on the computer. Just thought I'd pass it along in case anyone is interested. Cost was about $30, but sometimes they have them on sale. It's nice quality.

Same back at ya! I'm deciding about cutting way back on my holiday baking. I think I'll put a note in all my goodie gifts that this will be the last year. It just gets to be too much. I'll make small batches of the kid's favs and that's it next year. It's just too painful and hard on my body anymore.

Topic: RE: Interesting observation
Ignore this message, I am just screwing with the mods.
By their own butt-hurt personal feelings standards, from what I can see.
I posted to Sarah recently - AS A PERSON, NOT AS A MOD - in which I disagreed with her about something she said that was snarky to DSers, in a way that did NOT violate TOS - which she did NOT bother to respond to directly, although she made excuses for her attitude in a response to someone else. http://www.obesityhelp.com/forums/DS/4467729/Stages-of-WLS/ I wonder if she got butt-hurt by what I said, and that may be coloring the heavy-handed moderation I am receiving now. Frankly, although she has portrayed herself as someone who deserves special treatment because of her medical issues, I have long since tired of her thinking it gives her dispensation for some of the crap she posts - but you'd think I tipped over a cripple's wheelchair by not giving her a pass or by disagreeing with her.
I sense a growing Amy-vibe from her. Including the aspect that seems to reflect DS-envy - the DS would clearly have been better for both of them, statistically, and both of them seem to take pro-DS/anti-RNY stuff personally. Which is fine with me - I don't give a rat's patoot what she thinks of me personally - but I think it is affecting her "professional" judgment in her role as a moderator.
I have also disagreed with Kathy S personally, though I don't recall if there has been a recent incident.
Barbara C is beyond annoying with her cross-posting every little thing that she thinks gives her a reason to put her face and "title" on every page on OH. Most of the time when she posts that drivel on the DS forum, it is UTTERLY irrelevant to any of us - and I often say so.
I have also told Eric Klein - when he took a brief spin at posting publicly and ostensibly as a MEMBER - that I would NOT help him when he "invited" me to - for free - write an article for his OH rag that he didn't have time to write. And I criticized his incomprehensible and factually inane postings here: http://www.obesityhelp.com/forums/amos/4431266/Lap-Banders-W rite-a-Letter-to-Washington/#36630036 I wonder if he is butt-hurt about that? I kinda doubt it - I don't get the sense that he has feelings that can get hurt, other than being frustrated that his attempt to interact with me didn't go his way - and OH is just his cash cow.
So, overall, it appears to me that the mods can't separate their feelings about my criticizing them as MEMBERS with their roles as moderators, and are using that as an excuse to apply different standards to my posts, and moderating them - or putting ME on moderation. That's how it appears to me. In my opinion, if they can't maintain professional impartiality as moderators, they should resign. Am I allowed to have an opinion about this?
