    Has anyone here had a bone marrow needle biopsy?  I have one scheduled in a couple weeks and I told them I do want sedation when they asked me.  I would like to know how long the pain/soreness lasts so I can prepare myself.

    yes i have. you 100% want sedation. i was not given that option (it was done in a doctors office). i was sore for a bit after, but i think that's because i had only a local anesthetic and so i felt most of it happen. trust and believe,  when that local wore off, ugh!

    Has anyone bought a new car lately?  I’m researching. Looking for sporty, fun, reliable and not too small SUV.  A good friend swears by her Subaru Cross Trek.  It looks good. Idk.  Any suggestions appreciated.  

    i have a larger suburu and love it!

  3. Salacious Kitty, sorry for your loss.

    Mindthinkr, you are a good person!

    'Balto' friends, that bridge situation was incredible to see. i believe i have driven that bridge, many years ago. very sad situation.

    as we near the end of small talk, i have realized that i am unsure about finding a new group -- i rather like THIS one. i will probably still be on the bates and the MAFS threads but i am a bit fearful of getting too chummy on chit chat. i hate reddit or to be more truthful, i just dont get it.

    i am sick as a dog...again! its Easter weekend and i will likely miss all the services. i know some of us here are Believers (and some are CLEARLY not). i tend to keep my faith on the quiet side but stepping out now. Since this forum is likely ending and no one will care if i am gone or banned or not, i want to say that, in light of the holiday, Jesus died for ALL of us on that long ago Friday. He suffered to save us from eternal damnation.  He returned on Easter morning as He promised!  Hallelujah!! its not just bunnies and candy.

  4. i am thankful for Zest that this group of people has given my days. i come here to see whats happening in your lives and to tell you a bit about mine. unfortunately, i am pretty trusting and honest so you could all find me in real life if you wanted to based off of what i have shared here over the years. i am not a good liar so i dont even try (not saying anyone here is being dishonest but sometimes the stories dont match up over time).  that said,  this group of friends has been the sunshine on some pretty dark days for me. thank you all for that. i do hope the threat of canceling our group is just that, a threat, and not reality.

  5. i m just sad to see the whole duggar forum dying off. since this notice was posted, the comments have dropped off to almost no new posts at all. i hate to see it go, for exactly the reason above...the social value and connections made here on small talk after all these years. i dont really like reddit and will likely not be there and i did join chit chat but its not the same.  i hope those in charge finally reevaluate and recognize this forum has kept growing even after the show was cancelled and has a strong following here.

    I still have suspicions on the "first bride." This show has always been teasing a "runaway" bride. Also we saw NOTHING about the first bride during any of the matchmaking episodes.

    I think this could have been a producer set up and Michel went along with it and knew he'd get another wedding.

    i am sorry, i dont understand this post. can you explain further?

    When I click on the above link, the document with the guidelines is very small on my tablet, making the print impossible for me to read. I have tried several times to enlarge it to no avail. I am not particularly tech savvy. It might be my tablet and everyone else may be able to read it easily, but I cannot. Thank you for any suggestions on how I can read this.

    it is 11 pages!!!

     We're fine, thanks.

    Update:
    I'm watching the news and they're speculating that at least 8 tornadoes touched down in Illinois (damage still to be determined.) 
       They're saying it's extremely rare for a tornado to touch down in Illinois in February, and that the last one was in the 1950s...70 some years ago.
       It was so nice outside today (74°), and now they're saying it will be 33° tomorrow, and it's supposed to snow.
    Ok me done. 😁

    i am currently watching the weather channel now and it is moving up and over into michigan now. also, northern texas has a massive wind driven fire that may take out several towns - 250,000 acres last i heard. weather is scary.

  15. took a drive today after being housebound with all the rainy days we have had for the last week plus. it was gorgeous!  nippy outside (high 40's- low 50's) with winds but clear blue skies and snow capped mountains in the distance. was finally able to drive over the 'pass' and visit with an elderly friend of mine -- so glad i did. she seems to be on the decline (healthwise and emotionally too) since last visit. lots of traffic heading up to the ski resort areas.  so worth the drive tho.
