Not the best new years eve for me. I've twisted my knee and I have been on physio at home for the last few days. Maybe a week more before I can even walk comfortably enough to step out of the house.
I am generally active even with my low energy levels, and it is driving me crazy to have to lie still and do nothing!
:boredom
Help.. Help... HELPPPPPPP !!!!!!
:gaah

Jokes... Hmmm :huh Check this one ,
A young man was walking through a supermarket to pick up a few things when he noticed an old lady following him around. Thinking nothing of it, he ignored her and continued on. Finally he went to the checkout line, but she got in front of him.
"Pardon me," she said, "I'm sorry if my staring at you has made you feel uncomfortable. It's just that you look just like my son, who just died recently."
"I'm very sorry," replied the young man, "is there anything I can do for you?"
"Yes," she said, "As I'm leaving, can you say 'Good bye, Mother!' ? It would make me feel so much better."
"Sure," answered the young man.
As the old woman was leaving, he called out, "Goodbye, Mother!"
As he stepped up to the checkout counter, he saw that his total was $127.50.
"How can that be?" he asked, "I only purchased a few things!"
"Your mother said that you would pay for her," said the clerk. :rotfl :rotfl

Hahahaha! :biggrin
I didnt walk today, because there was too much ice on the streets. But I am almost done with the assignment what I write in name of my project group. I hope they believe I write the right advise and that they wrote their piece of advise!. Then I will have dinner. I planned to make 3 individual assignments aswell, but it's too late.
The funny thing is that my pet went outside and became stuck in the snow. I was the guardian angel. It was funny, because the only thing you heard was Awwwww-Awwwwww-Awwww ;D

This is good! I was worried we were all going to be sad together as a team... lol..
:biggrin
A little kid goes to school, but comes home and complains to her mother. "I dont think i am going to ever learn how to spell, because my teacher keeps changing the words!"
P.S. I said I wanted jokes, but I was actually expecting hugs... :wink

@ Zaini, Fouad, Umair, Abbas
Thanks All! :grouphug
@ And everyone who didn't post anything here. Well at least you're reading me.
:grin
Thanks!
@ Dore,
About the Awwwww.... Awwwww..... Awwwwww...... thats the exact same noise I made when i hurt my knee, it makes others want to hug me and tell me everything will be ok.. I dont know if the same as being covered in snow though - that was very funny !!! lol..
Wow, I'm done with my studies, and I do not know how i managed! I was always an ace student and did really well in extra curriculars too! But i always studied late night, since I can never get up early. The more alert and focussed we are, the faster we Grasp anything we try to learn!
Find the bed early - yes i agree. Stimulating your brains anytime before you try to sleep, will push the sleep (and the bed) even more further away!
A lot of times, I feel like a child who resists sleep, because she wants to play. :-) Then i want to read, work on my activites, tidy my room (yes, even at 2 am), it goes on and on. Now i try to follow a routine. I switch off my mind an hour before I want to hit bed. The trick is to bore the mind and body into falling asleep! :-)
Deep Breathing even a few times, cuts down anxiety and stress. And yes, try to smile before you sleep. Chances are u smile in your sleep too. :-)
I'm very poor with languages, I'm good at english though I doubt I articulate well. I would love to learn many languages, but it has always been a huge block.
Thank you for your stories. :-)

there r lots of jokes joke in this thread bt i like this one posted by Sajid :) :
http://www.thalassemiapatientsandfriends.com/index.php?topic=616.msg4639#msg4639
Sherlock Holmes and Dr Watson go on a camping trip. After a good dinner, they retire for the night, and go to sleep.
Some hours later, Holmes wakes up and nudges his faithful friend. "Watson, look up at the sky and tell me what you see."
"I see millions and millions of stars, Holmes" replies Watson.
"And what do you deduce from that?"
Watson ponders for a minute.
"Well, astronomically, it tells me that there are millions of galaxies and potentially billions of planets. Astrologically, I observe that Saturn is in Leo. Horologically, I deduce that the time is approximately a quarter past three. Meteorologically, I suspect that we will have a beautiful day tomorrow. Theologically, I can see that God is all powerful, and that we are a small and insignificant part of the universe. What does it tell you, Holmes?"
Holmes is silent for a moment. "Watson, you idiot!" he says. "Someone has stolen our tent!"

I always wonder what xoxoxoxoxo meant. I am glad I know now.
What did you study? I study Law. Spanish is for fun & meeting people. Ok, time to do the dishes.
Dore
p.s. Yesterday my cat was jumping in the Christmas tree all the time. Very annoying. :biggrin
I removed the blablabla part, because I did believe it was really blablabla untill I saw your answer. I work hard on the 'at time in bed' resolution. Yesterday I succeed, but did not have the time to read... I didn't sleep until 1am.
Tonight's joy of the cat is trying to get the door open. It's an easy job for her, but it's not so easy when your boss is dis---ing you.

Thanks Umair :-)
Dore.. I will reply soon.. :-)

In our Unit xoxoxoxo bears a totally different meaning (lol)!
x - marked on the date means we had desferal on that date and
o - marked on the date means we took ferriprox on that date and if you find a date marked with x and o at the same time...then, that means we had desferal and ferriprox on that date too.
I do not know if everyone got the picture, it's funny anyway.
Everything is written down in our Thal Unit! a very analytical unit, that is! and in the end of each month our progress is shown by the marks x and o in our calendar, together of course with our ferritin count!
Really, I doubt this is happening anywhere else....I am curious, is it?

It sure is an efficient system, if u ask me!
Assigning a symbol to a longer word can be used in every day activities too.
(Provided one can remember exactly what word corresponds to which symbol.) :-)

Preety,
Hope you are much better now :hugfriend
Lena
That is very interesting
