I'm not sure why it is growing here...Hi Serena,<br />I'm not sure why it is growing here. Could be that all around for miles and miles is agricultural. This is the biggest city in North Dakota--most metropolitan. So, if any businesses want to come into North Dakota (one of the solvent states) this would be the place to come. The economy is supposed to be better here than in a lot of areas in the United States. ?? <br /><br />I can certainly empathize with your mom as far as the constant pain goes. But she has the worse kind of arthritis--my heart goes out to her. A longtime friend of mine's daughter came down with RA when she was only in her 20s! Dealing with meds is a constant balancing act. I'm so glad your mother has found a good balance for her. That is something to celebrate! Tell her I send hugs from Fargo! :)Ritahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02043285884495492598noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29503764.post-45100401848103751912010-04-09T18:43:41.476-05:002010-04-09T18:43:41.476-05:00Lovely pics of wide open spaces, Rita. Some towns ...Lovely pics of wide open spaces, Rita. Some towns thrive and expand because they have an industry, such as farming or mining, or a business value of some sort that enables employment for the residents. With you mentioning that Fargo is expanding, I was wondering, apart from the beauty, what attracts people to live there?<br /><br />I'm like you...I hate taking pain medication, even the non-prescription variety. Some side effects certainly do make you wonder whether it's worth it. As you know, my Mum has Rheumatoid Arthritis, and all the cortisone treatment over the years actually caused her osteoporosis. Mum has weaned herself down to very small dosage of the Prednisone (cortisone medication) over the past few years and feels much happier for it.Serena Lewishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17789734075055678964noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29503764.post-43209895947342978412010-04-09T13:54:55.242-05:002010-04-09T13:54:55.242-05:00AliceKay,

I remember reading about pioneers who went crazy out here on the plains--feeling so exposed or something? I do like some trees and water. I am a Minnesotan, after all--hehe! But I love the grasslands and the openness.<br /><br />Thanks--I hope I can either cut back or go in to my doctor and ask to try something else. :):)Ritahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02043285884495492598noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29503764.post-74793335310984805752010-04-09T13:51:26.812-05:002010-04-09T13:51:26.812-05:00Iggy--yes!

Funny how growing up n the land of the prairie that I can get to feeling claustrophobic in a deep valley, actually. I like to see a horizon line. ;)<br /><br />Well, I can say I have fuzzy-brainess which would qualify under confusion, I think. But unusual thoughts or behavior--nope. Nothing outside of my ordinary oddness--hehe!<br /><br />I know--I really dislike taking pain pills! I refused for years when the doctor suggested I try them. But the pain just wears you down. It's a rock and a hard place situation, I suppose. :( I am going to gradually cut back and see what happens. You also don't want to just stop, I am sure I'd go through withdrawal! I won't know unless I try, tho.Ritahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02043285884495492598noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29503764.post-4986981445737620852010-04-08T15:03:15.438-05:002010-04-08T15:03:15.438-05:00I loved your pictures.

I was born and raised in northeastern Pennsylvania and have lived here all my life. I've been around mountains all of my life. I've taken a few trips where I've seen some very flat land, and it really amazes me. I went to Texas last May and saw some wide open spaces. I kept saying...it's soooooo flat. LOL<br /><br />I'm sorry to hear your pain meds are messing with your head. I know it's not easy when you feel confused and "fuzzy". I hope you can find something that helps control that "fuzziness" in your head and your pain a little better very, very soon.AliceKayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12027650364526343030noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29503764.post-29882379282418607832010-04-08T13:35:33.360-05:002010-04-08T13:35:33.360-05:00Fargo looks like what you hear about Montana... &q...Fargo looks like what you hear about Montana... "Big Sky" country - and its so nice and BLUE!!!<br /><br />:)<br /><br />The published side-effects for A SEET a MIN oh fen and proe POX i feen (Darvocet) include confusion, unusual thoughts or behavior.<br /><br />Now having "unusual thoughts" might help your writing, I don't think you want your writing to be "groo-ooooo-oooo-vy" as opposed to "way cool!" Unusual behaviour would be jumping out from a balloon at 120,000 feet...<br /><br />I wonder how these clinical trials uncover and what they consider "unusual thoughts and behaviour"??<br /><br />Anyway, Darvocet has soooo many interactions with other drugs its almost scary - <br /><br />Sigh... Just wish you were pain-free and clear-headed all your waking hours (and pain-free all the time).Intense Guyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08441598926026727682noreply@blogger.com
