Damn H&R... Sorry but I couldn't force myself to like that post... 
That's just too arctic for me to consider. I'm happy for the polar bears and hope it keeps that ice sheet up there solid a little longer so they can hunt seals. Maybe keep them from extinction a while longer. They're born into that environment and designed to survive and even thrive in it. I ustacould function down in negative 10-20 degree weather, but as I've aged, I've definitely whimped out. I suppose, life or death, we all do what we need to, but it's not something I'd willingly "get up close to" or put myself in a position to have to deal with any more.
OK, so I started the 5 day steroid course this morning at 4am. Took me 10 minutes to get vertical from the bed and another ten to hobble into the bathroom on extremely painful feet/ankles and knees. Very much improved over 16 hours thankfully! On the cold front, the sore throat is still fighting to hang on but is losing that battle, thank you very much. Stomach has finally settled back to about normal. What follows that organ will normalize over the coming days I'm sure. I've noticed that in the past day or two, salty things have tasted way saltier and sweet things much sweeter. Have backed off salting things and kicked back on sweetening in my tea.
I have some appetite returning. Felt human enough by dinner time that after animals chores I went to the store and picked up some milk and a few other items (bananas, salad mix, baby spinach, carrots, celery - gonna try to eat a bit more healthy
). Been craving milk for days. The last I had from Jersey Girls went south several days ago and I wasn't in any condition to go get any. Soooooo nice to have milk again 
Had been craving pizza so swung by Domino's on the way home and decided to try their 7.99 medium deep dish w/3 toppings. Had 3 slices, finishing the 3rd right now. Not really sure what I think about it... It's not a "traditional" deep dish crust by my experience... Taste/texture is a bit "off"... but it definitely filled the hole that needed filling. Stomach feels rather distended.
Less than 100 alerts, no idea how many new posts, gonna try to get through them from the start.
Thanks for all the well wishes everyone. Much appreciated! Sorry if I came across as a whiner...
ETA: Was really pissed... system locked and wouldn't show the post, posted, couldn't load windows to copy it, and ended up having to do a hard restart. Though I'd lost the above and would have to start over. <whew!>
