Ladies over 30 what's your T-score?

Hey Ladies - do you know your T-score? Back in March of 2006 I stepped off my porch, rolled both ankles and broke a bone.... shouldn't have broken anything...

Some things however are blessings in disguise. If not for my freak fall I might not have known that at 43 I already had a 21% bone loss. That is only 4% away from a diagnosis of osteoporosis!

So if you are 30 or over and know you don't get enough calcium in your diet - do something now! I am taking fosamax plus a supplement recommended by my Dr., (Caltrate 600 plus) twice a day. Hopefully my next T-score will be lower than 2.1. They say we can rebuild bone... - will be posting my new T-score(after two years on the calcium and fosamax) sometime in the fall of 2008.

No more falling for the breakable me

Got Milk??

10 reasons I’m extremely strange (Rated R for language)

did this for my future daughter in law on another site. getting ready to delete that site so thought I would put it here just in case she hadn't read it and wanted to.


1. I don't follow instructions well unless there is a grade, job performance rating, or true knowledge at stake. So first of all I cheat. I will not tag anyone because this is just a different kind of 'all about me chain letter' I know a poor soul who did chain letters for years thinking something bad would happen to her if she broke the chain...and no it wasn't me but I am related to her..... :( So anyway, chain letters = SPAM. As a programmer I know SPAM to be EVIL.

2. The above statement makes other people think I am a stick in the mud who has no fun. I just don't need SPAM or even other people to have fun, now MUD... is another story, but other people just tend to ruin my fun as soon as I start having it.

3. I need more time away from other people than the average person.

4. I also think that people with poor hygiene should be forced to live separate from those of us who prefer to actually be clean and smell good. That said, I have the old man's bags packed and am waiting on the bus to come and take him away!

5. I had to censor the hell out of myself while making this list!

6. If I had the energy, means, resources - all that good stuff, to go back to school... I would study astronomy. Not astrology lol, astronomy..

7. I would love to leave the planet and view earth from space.

8. I believe things about religion, spirituality, and the universe that could potentially still get me burned at the stake.

9. John Prine song lyrics should be required learning.

10. Some humans ain't human, some people ain't kind, open up their hearts, and here's what you'll find...

A few frozen pizza's, some ice cubes with hair, a broken popsicle, you don't wanna go there.... (John Prine, Some humans ain't human)
