Dear DD, Please be well...send you alot of positive energy, and wishing you well...Let us know how you are when you can... We love you!!!! :) Beth Nagle de Szego Seville
This is her "Coffee Talk" forum where we are supposed to "talk amongst yourselves". She better get fixed up. Hopefully by tmrw we will know she's ok and on some meds. This sh** is scary tho. xoxo
Matilda, Think about trying to change your undies with only one good wing. I hope all is well Pat.
I went to the Christmas Tree Shop and picked up some extra tins today. I am making Peanut butter Buckeyes to give to friends this year. I picked up some stocking stuffers for the girls. Tomorrow will be a month since my back surgery and stopping smoking. All is okay on both fronts except for the days my ass hurts and I want a fucking cigarette! LOL
Heidi, Congrats for going a month without smoking!! I'm still fighting that demon. Damn, it's hard! Can't remember how many times I've quit this past year. I'm sick to death of these things but so dependent on them. Pisses me off!
I've never heard of buckeyes other than the chickens. What are they?
This morning my husband and I cleaned the chicken coop. I never knew how much birds fling their poo, until after we painted the walls a nice 50's sort-of robin's egg blue (oops paint for $5 a gallon at Home Depot---porch paint) and the ceiling white. We never got any snow during our storm, and very little ice. Bummer. I sure hope Pat is okay. I feel a little better just knowing that at least she is being seen.
Christina, Candy. They have peanut butter, powered sugar and other stuff I can't recall. I think they are dipped in melted chocolate that has paraffin melted with it...Heidi!!! Help. Please share your recipe. I may just have to whip up a batch
I ate gross ass chessy hamburger helper for dinner now i feel sick. i have a headache and 2 retarded finals that i'm pretty sure will fuck up my 4.0 gpa this week. AND i got the wrong ornaments to make gifts with. I also wanna make a freaking third batch of gingerbread cookies beacuse they are so good. and i wonder why the fuck i'm fat. ughhhhhhhh!
Sending good wishes to you though pat! stay healthy :)
Hope all is well with you DD...I will be thinking about you. I hate cold hospitals. I hate hospitals period, but I am glad DD is there and will be better soon.
Any advice on raising stepchildren? We are recently married and his children are 5 and 9. They are just like their mother. She is a childish, control freak. Uses her anger to control everybody. I can't stand having a 9 yr old thinking she runs the house. She bosses everyone around. Their father is very loving towards them and tries to play games with them and it always turns into a nightmare. Whining every second of the day. If we try positive attention all we get is, snotty comments back. We have a 10 month old together and she is the happiest child you will ever meet. When can I step in and start taking back the house when they are here? I try to stay out of most of it, but I am about to snap. How can two kids make everything we do so miserable?
I think my husband's bipolar/adhd. after xmas when i can get a job and health insurance I will be demanding he do something about it or that's about it for me. he's a mental patient and I am sometimes in awe of his mood swings and crazy ways. I'm basically miserable and am a fraction of my former happy go lucky self. he knows he's screwball but says he will not take a pill everyday. once i give the ultimatum i hope that will change. i have to do it for the sake of my children and I.
anon, slowly step in and start establishing guidelines for how things are gonna be in your house and let dad know that he will have to stick to them also so there's a united front. I have hellion nephews that act crazy at home but they know at my house that shit doesn't fly. Be firm not mean. Kids are very perceptive and know what they can get away with. good luck!
Okay. I think I have one or more skunks under the house where I sit at the computer. I just got another little blast of it. Great. Now I need to try flush it out or call a pest service. I know it needs shelter, but I'm not ready to cozy up with something that smells like that over the winter. Merry Christmas to me. sigh.
Heidi, congrats on not smoking!! October 3rd was my 2 year mark of not smoking. I used Chantix and it worked like a charm. I didn't expect it to, I had tried to quit a million times and had finally just succumb to the idea that I would be one of those people in my 40's pushing around my oxygen tank smoking my cigarette waiting for my early demise. Now, I traded that addiction for addiction to good health and fitness and I am 32 and in the best shape/health of my life!!! Now I realize it was just the chains of addiction telling me I couldn't quit. Now it seems so silly that I was going to let cigarettes kill me!!! Matilda, keep trying, it will eventually work and life on the other side of smoking is waaaay better!! I would be happy to give you some of my tips if you are interested. Good luck!!
My son and I went to the hairdresser today - my son had a very small trim, a little clean up; I had over 2 inches taken off. My husband walks in and immediately notices Ben's haircut and tells him how great he looks. Then looks at me and says "hi, Hon. How was your day?" Has no fucking clue I chopped my hair off. I know guys are not great at details but, c'mon. He either doesn't like it or seriously did not notice. Pisses me off either way. Fuck him.
DD should be back by now, no? We are all thinking of you, let us know that you are OK.
OMG! I took a final tonight and i was woefully unprepared!!! PANIC!!!!!!!!!!!!! i had to get at least 80% to get an A in the class!!!! i have a big final friday and i haven't started studying!!!
Hey, Pat. Here's what I'd do if I were you. Just give up underpants altogether! I am serious - haven't worn then since I was 16 (and I'm 55 now). I know - some of you are going "ew, gross", but I can stand the constriction of underwear, I've never had any sort of "girlie infection", and I am always comfortable and "liberated".
anon w/stepchildren - with hubby's help, set some boundaries for the kids. It sounds like they need it. This tells them what's ok and what's not (rules, chores, responsibilities). Sends a sense of security and lets them know they're loved. Hubby must back you up on these and be a united front. They're young enough that you can treat them as your own but he will naturally have more "pull" since he's parented them longer. Time outs when needed. Best of luck to you!!!
anon with stepchildren...this is the hardest thing you will EVER do...but you will have a lot of influence whether you see it or not. Stepchildren will play every head game you can imagine, divorce is so hard on everyone, and a stepmother really gets caught in the middle. Go through your husband, respect their other mother, be really stable and consistent with the children...and above all know that they need a happy home. Best wishes and congrats.
Valle, sounds like you have a good plan! My brother is bi-polar and can't stay in a relationship 'cause no woman can stand it. He also refuses to take regular medication.
Congratulations Nissa!! I'm impressed!!
I figure it is good/bad news that Pat is not back. Bad because there was no "quick fix", but good because she is finally getting the care she needs. I am concerned but hopeful.
Anon with Stepchildren. Good luck. I truly believe Step kids are harder to deal with than our "own" kids. My Steps are users. I have watched them take advantage of their Father for years. They have no idea how awful their Mom was/is toward their Dad. Your Steps are still young enough for you to take control NOW. I agree with the previous comments. Be firm and kind but do not let them run your home.
Miss Tia & Nissa...BEST of luck to both of you on your finals--you will do GREAT!! Am SO glad those days ended this summer...believe me, graduation will be worth all this agony! ;) Hugs.....
This may seem super silly but I'd like some advice...I recently lost 106 pounds and my confidence has shot up and I feel good about myself. I've been hanging around a guy for a couple months now and I personally think we're in the dreaded "friend zone." I never asked guys out in the past because I was always worried about the way I looked and what they'd think or say and I still haven't quite gotten over that. What are some thoughts on how to tell if it's just a friend or something more? It sounds like a silly question but I'd like some input. My friends that I talk to all know me and I fear they'd say things I WANT to hear as opposed to what I SHOULD hear. Going on a tangent now, this guy has got me wondering. I e-mailed Pat awhile ago about the topic of fate and I'm curious about others input on the topic. Do you think it exists or is everything just simple coincidences? I am not sure if I believe in it. At this moment in time a lot of events are happening with this guy that are putting us together or bringing us together in random situations. Every time I thought I wouldn’t see him again, something brought us back together. I feel like when I start to think, “I should forget about him,” there is something that brings us right back together, like I shouldn’t let this one get away…then again I could be making too much of the situation! Anyway, just wanted some input.
Ok, DD - I'm beginning to really get concerned about you. You last post was when you were headed out the door. Sending positive thoughts your way. And hope you're doing well and getting some rest.
Megan, My personal belief is that there's no such thing as coincidences. Everything - our lives and the events that take place in the cosmos - are predetermined. So to answer your question, yeah, I most definetly believe in fate. But here's the rub - it might be your fate to just be friends with this fellow. Time will tell. Maybe their's something you need to learn from this experience. If that's the case then don't look on this fellow as a missed opportunity for a more permanent relationship. Rather, wait for the natural order of things to unfold and believe that everything happens for a reason.
Megan- congrats on the weight loss! Please, please share how you did it. I am absolutely miserable with my weight and can't seem to stick to a diet more than 5 minutes.
As far as those trying to tame the smoking demon, I used hypnosis. It was just one of these cheap sessions at the local hotel for $40.00 or so. I never expected it to work, but I have not smoked for 10 years. After 22 years of 2-pack a day smoking.
qtrfan - I have been sticking to weight watchers. I use the point system which for me works because I know that I can STILL eat the big mac if the craving hits, I just have to work it out with the rest of the points. If you only have a little bit of weight to lose, weight watchers might be hard because the more you weigh, the more points you have...the same with the less you weigh, the less points. It gets trickier as you lose more and your points go down but so far I'm sticking to it. I still eat normal I just alter a lot of the recipes. Example: Last night I had tacos...typically a fattening item but I used the baked tostitos and for 14 of them it is 2 points...so I had about 3 points worth and then I use the really lean beef and it's 3 points for 4 ounces...pour that onto the chips. After that I use any amount of tomatoes and lettuce. I use weight watchers mexican cheese and the reduced fat sour cream. If I wanted some salsa or onions on it, they are guilt free. So I have this filling meal for about 10 points! If you want any other information you can e-mail me at Zit4life@aol.com
I do not have proper measurements for the Buckeyes because I was never given them..LOL
In a food processer whiz to crumbs, two sleeves of graham crackers. Then put in about a half cup of powdered sugar..whiz again. Then i put in a half a regular size jar of peanut butter (smooth). Whiz together.
Then put some parchment or waxed paper down on a cookie sheet. Start rolling into balls. Not too big.. a little bigger then marble size. Put that whole cookie sheet in the freezer. I do this in batches and put the frozen middles in lidded containers until I am ready to cover in chocolate.
I use almond bark (find at walmart in chocolate chip section)..it melts very well and sets up nice. I melt it in bowl in microwave. 30 secs at a time. then check. that way I do not burn it. Cookie sheet with parchment or waxed paper. Cover each ball with chocolate and put on parchment. When sheet is full, i put in freezer to set up.
These are good to eat frozen, refrigerated, or room temperature.
You have to mess with the amounts. You may need more peanut butter IF they do not roll easily. Add more sugar if they are good gooey. You want it easy to roll but not peanut butter gooey.
CASEY.... I have been trying to call your mom and it says the # is no longer in service... please email me and let me know where I can get hold of her..... ty nadine_clo@yahoo.com and when you see her tell her I have tried to call and to please GET WELL....
Had a great time at the huge Christmas celebration. Tired today. Hubby is home so I stayed in bed late and it was well worth it. Wink-Wink.
This goes against everything I believe in and I have never done this before but I am this time. I do not believe that Matt is in the hospital or that anything is wrong with him. I have no sympathy at all for him. Why did he make up something "fake" and not "real" like cancer?If by some weird chance this is true then let me just say. My pain is worse than your pain. Hope he is suffering.Sorry but I had to go there!
**
So Matt can't have a REAL legitimate medical problem, but you can? You are delusional Brig. Maybe the Cymbalta is affecting you. And NO one cares if you rolled over onto your trucker husband's boner this morning. Get a life, try some excercise. I saw your little pic and you are overweight, which is quite possibly the reason your are sore. You are out of shape and blame it on a fake illness. Doctor's laugh at you and you take up their valuable time with your ramblings. Not go cut the cheese with your daughter and the little boy you babysit.
I had a rare opportunity to quit smoking. I had a discectomy done last month. I knew that I was going to be laid up in the house for quite awhile and would not be able to have access to cigs on my own. My hubs deserves a big medal. He did not budge. No matter how bitchy I got or how much I cried..he did not get me cigarettes. He did get me a box of Patches and I threw them at his head! LOL But then I gave up being a big baby. This is what I wanted. So I put on the Patch, chewed bubble gum when I really needed it, and it has been a month today. You just have to get over that first 3-4 days. If you can deal, you will be past the horrific withdrawl. Good Luck!
I've found that if you can get your head in the right place to do it then you can quit smoking. Just like losing weight and becoming more physically active. You have to be highly motivated. I always start out with a lot of motivation but after a month or so I lose it for some reason. It's a constant cycle for me. Over the years I've tried patches, gum, Chantix and Allen Carr's book. Everything worked in the beginning because I had the motivation. Now I need to figure out what's going on in my head cause that's the first thing you need to figure out before trying to break a bad habit.
Pat sends a BIG HI ALL! She was admitted to the hospital last night and is undergoing a buttload of tests today. She did suffer a mild stroke but she sounds real good. She doesn't know anything else right now but she send her luvs to everyone for for all the good vibes sent her way.
I told her that EVERYONE sends thier LOVE and I could tell she was just floored that someone from Dirty Disher called her. I could feel her heart welling up with love and I bet you dollars to donuts she had tears in her eyes and probably bawled like a baby when we hung up. But it was good tears. She just doesn't understand how much we love her.
I am all for a card brigade also. The cards could go to one central location and THAT person can mail them out to Pat. We have to figure out how it can be done!
A mild stroke oh my she's in the right place. Thank you Escrow for letting us all know. DD we will all be here waiting for your return. Take care my dear friend positive thots are sent your way from Canada c/0 Kiki :) xoxo
Megan A great indicator to how he feels about you is to try this see how he introduces you to someone. For example if he says this is my friend or this is my co-worker it's platonic in his eyes but if he says this is my special lady it's another level he holds you up to.
Megan if he doesn't introduce you to his friends /co workers/family / he is Not telling others means he is not claiming you or wanting to claim you by Proclaiming to others in his life who you are to him he signifies that you are important to him. Without going outright and asking him you can pick up on these subtle tells as to how he feels. The best thing to do is wait and see and if you have to guess make a positive guess and try to just let the friendship develope into what it will be. I hope this helps & hang in there & enjoy the time spent with your friend. Kiki :)
if she is in the county hospital, they have an online greeting sender where the hospital gives the greetings to the patient....just went and checked that out....
if escrow could confirm if that's the right place, we could do email greetings....i didn't send one because i didn't know if she was in that hospital or not...
Thanks for the update Escrow! Sending healing thoughts her way as well. I'd also like to send a card or contribute to a care package so if you have an address, please email me.
oh noes! it's tuesday and pat is not around to drive the old ladies!! i am sorry, i just thought of that and started laughing....her mom is probably pounding on dd's door! "i need cat food"
AND - "Saint" Anonymous ... Fuck you! Poor lil Matt-dick needs sumbuddy to stik up fer him, thoz meen gurlz hert hims feeelins. I know, we can randomly trash on other people's health, that'll show them who's boss. So, F.U.C.K. Y.O.U.
Escrow when you talk to Pat please tell her I've been trying to call her home but the # has changed it seems. Ask her if you can give me her hospital number or cell.... my email is nadine_clo@yahoo.com
Thank goodness DD is in the hospital. Hopefully they were able to give her that stroke med (TSA or TSP or something like that). My almost-ex husband was home alone and lay on the floor for 4 days before we found him.
He has severe language impairment as a result because there is a small window of opportunity to get the stroke med that can help minimize brain damage.
Right now Pat is in intensive care and can't receive anything. Send her e-cards for now. She doesn't have any idea when she will be released. I would love to tell all of you where she is but without her permission my hands are tied. Imagine if the trolls got ahold of this info. Nope, no way am I telling.
Oh no. Pat please get well soon We're all sending positive thoughts your way. I would love to be able to send a card.
Is there going to be a collection for flowers or a plant for her? I can't do much but I would certainly contribute something. A small price for all the entertainment her blog has brought me.
DD I hope you feel better soon. Please get well soon. Your little girl lissa needs you. She is your angel. We all need you. I wish I could help anyway. Best of luck DD. Take care.. ( BIG HUG)
thank goodness she went to the hospital and made demands! i hope she's ok. she is my sunshine on many a dreary day. amazing how you can really feel for someone you've never met. hugs and prayers.
DD...a few years ago I went into Bobby Trendy's shop in L.A. and he gave me a candle. It's remained unlit till now. Yes...I'm lighting my Bobby Trendy candle for you. That's gotta have some special power, right? ;)
I sincerely hope you can feel all the energy coming your way. You are adored!
Pat ~ I'm doing the best thing that I know how, praying, for you and that you are back home and feeling 100% in no time. I don't comment here often but read here everyday and I find comfort in your words. Please know how much you are cared for by so many people. {{{{{ Hugs }}}} your way and healing thoughts.
Oh, I am sure this is just a big ruse-fake-snowjob, just like Matt Heckman and his hospitalization. Moon mighttry something like this and it might increase her revenue.Don't believe everything you read people. This is just another of crazy Pats stories.Shes prob just sleeping off one.
I'm trying to find where Pat first mentioned her arm bothering her, can anyone find it? I thought stroke too, when she talked about scraping the ice off her car, but did she mention it before?
I just emailed Casey J .... hope she still has the same addy, if I hear any news I will post it immediately. Escrow please tell Pat that she's in my thoughts..... and ask if you can give me her whereabouts.. (hospital name etc) Thanks,
BOHOMO-you should have advised these dummies earlier. No where she is and what room she is in and also no her street address and that her daughter is with her.
You tell these tards to lay of Matt or I WILL TELL IT ALL and ain't no one her to moderate.
Her store front job,I am talking to the city council about her and her crazy blog. You put a muzzle on Lisa and her bunch-stifle them or the dish pays the price of the mean vile women,
what the fuck kind of illerate fucktard are you 6:43??? threatening DD's job because of some asshole who is trolling this website and posting comments using OUR names on HIS site?????
you can trash us but we can't say anything about you?!
you know what 6:43 troll, that comment you posted is reeking of BLACKMAIL....you are threatening her job, and possibly her life since you mention you know where she is....
i've reported you to blogger and they will find out who you are...
I'm glad someone said to respect her privacy. If DD wanted us all to know where she was she would have told us already.
Escrow will tell DD that we all miss her and are worried about her, won't you? And if DD wants us to send greetings then Escrow will let us know. Let's all trust her as DD's voice for now. I know you're all worried.... I am too. But we don't need to put more stress on this woman by making her fear that her personal information is being emailed on her unmoderated blog. Let's do what she would want: Light candles, send out positive energy, and wait patiently for some word. Perhaps someone with medical experience will give us their opinion on what is happening to DD? That would be helpful.

************************
You have your information wrong for one, and two go the fuck ahead and do it. Since it is wrong, it will not matter, will it?
I can guarantee you though if you attempt to place personal information about Pat, whether it be correct or not, on this blog or any other, you will face the consequences of said criminal action. You think I am bluffing? try me.
A women is ill in intensive care - you can bet that she will be protected at all costs. I just love the internet bully who thinks that he can say whatever the fuck he wants under the name of "Anonymous". You aren't anonymous. Who you are is as clear as day - and talk about having the "goods" on a person. Yeah, I have them on you. I know everything.
You want to continue to harass this blog? Keep it up, everything is being recorded; it is just more evidence against you.
Thank you Tonya. I have relayed all the information that I can. Keep the love and good wishes going to Dirty Dishers. Whew.....I'm getting a little taste of what a blog owner goes thru today LOL. My hats off to all of you who are blog owners! And for keeping it classy.
Everyone is billy badass under the protection of Anon. What kind of piece of shit does something like this when someone is in the hospital? Oh wait.....You are. You are a fucking Asshat and I wish anal warts on you.
Miss Tia: You took the words out of my mouth. How awful to talk about someone like that. That WAS a blackmail threat. People are arrested all the time for posting threats online. Its not a joke and is taken very seriously. I hope this person gets a visit from the cops! Thanks for telling them like it is. I can't believe that. I don't get why someone that hates someone would care so much to try to eff with their life & livlihood. How dare they! Please get better Pat. I was afraid of that when your arm was out of commission. Love you girly! xo Rox
No Escrow, thank YOU for letting us all know how DD is doing and for keeping an eye on her blog. This is an enormous job for you to take on and I, for one, am thankful that you are here. It would be horrible to sit here wondering what was going on and having no answers. Many thanks for sparing me that, Escrow.
Now I am off to the store. While I'm there I will pick up a candle for DD and I will light it for her tonight. I am an atheist and my husband will laugh but I will light it anyway because I believe that it would bring a smile to DD's face.
Ummm...was that a threat against Lissa? It sounds like it. I mean her grandaughter. Does anyone else think that? It sounds like it & could be taken that way. Like something will happen to Lissa. This is some messed up asshole saying this shit. Do they NOT get that their URL is posted with every comment? Like they are so "invisible". NOT! Wow, Moon, you are right. The evidence is piling up against this stalker and potential kidnapper. Anyone that threatens someones family will reap the vengeance of the masses. Lets see what happens now. It's too late anyway, they have already placed their threats on public display. Wow. Sucks to be them. In more ways than one!! rox
Crabbie, just leave it. It's serious enough for the police to see. It needs to remain public. Thanks tho. Good idea. But this is serious. I think Pat would like it left as is. She will need it be left like it was, for prosecution.
I think it is time to turn this in to the authorities. It doesn't matter if it is the net or not. Any type of threat is a threat, whether it be on the net, or in person.
I think Crabbie has reformed. He said "Gosh" on here! That would amuse Pat! Crabbie is a good guy, a nice friend to Pat. I visit you everyday Crabster. I saw your pic on there Melvin. Is that really you? You are nice looking! Let us know if you hear from Pat. She will handle this mess when she gets on. She doesn't need the stress tho. I hope she gets home soon. rox
Someone asked upthread when Pat had first mentioned her arm/ left side.
I found her entry on the "open post", the one with the black & white picture of a Christmas tree. (to look it up go to Older Posts)Sounds like it happened during the night on Friday/ Saturday. Shortly after Pat's entry, several readers asked about a possible stroke.
dirtydisher said... Tia, I woke up with no feeling in my entire left side and pain. Now it's back, I feel tingly (that asleep feeling)..we have shit for medical here. I'm drinking coffee and deciding what to do.
How crawling-on-your-belly-through-the-sewer-with-your-balls-covered-in-sludge low can you get? It takes a big man to threaten a sick woman and a helpless child, a real big man! Your momma must be proud, anon 6:43. P.I.G.
DD - feel better, think good thoughts. Fat fluffy snowflakes, making snow angels w/ your gorgeous g-daughter, humongo fruit baskets from Santa, hot cocoa with lots of whip-cream.
You don't know me but I visited your site months ago, visited with you and your fellow bloggers...and then sent your site to a "friend" who also visited and was impressed enough to do an official google link. What I want to say is even tho I've been gone I've always remembered your kindness and how you could make everyone feel comfortable who visited your site. I'm not using my nick...but I believe in my heart you know who I am. I believe in God and I know he's looking out for you right now. I just want you to get better soon....and remember in this world you have many friends who care about you. I'm sending you all my prayers.
tomorrow at NOON CENTRAL TIME (1pm eastern), 10am western? Please sit and send positive warm thoughts to pat! let's all do this together!!! let's give her 5 minutes of our time sending her good energy at NOON CENTRAL TIME WEDNESDAY!!!!!!
Please be well, Pat. I miss you, and hope you're feeling better. I will light a candle for you, and keep you in my thoughts and prayers. As a medical person, this is not my specialty, but stroke is what I was afraid of when you first mentioned your symptoms. Those symptoms can mean other things, too, so I am very glad you went to see a doctor and pursued this. Feel better soon, Pat.
You know she threatens people all the time and so does Lisa K to Matt. You are right it is there, on all of these sites, this petty, mean bullying. My opionion is Lisa, you and your girls need to stop, Matt needs to stop-just STOP!
You all are equally to blame-you know who you are. DD is not guiltless, she took plenty of latitude with someone who was supposed to be IWHY, remember that? What comes around goes around. Maybe she is in the hospital, maybe not. For the record I do think she is, but I also think she posts some tall tales and has pissed off lots of folks-as has Lisa K etc...right or wrong, is everyone done now? I think so. TRUCE FROM ALL PARTIES, agreed?
DD, I read here daily, but post rarely. I've been thinking of you and sending prayers up for you since I learned, at Moon's, that you were sick! Take care of YOU and let go of the stress and worry, it never changes anything anyway! God bless!!
LMAO! Moon, you are one to talk about spilling personal info! You set the tone for alot of these women. I don't think that is anything to be proud of. However, I agree with Anon, that enough is enough from RWA and Matt and even you. Everyone just stop the attcks and play nice.
Anon @9:02... I'm not trying to be mean or nasty but....Its easy for someone to say what you just said because your health issues and your kids have not been involved in this. I have never said anything about these nuts until they started with me/us!!! I think now that the proper people have been contacted these vile idiots will stop...but only because they are made to stop. You don't know the whole story.
I know more than you think. You have played just as dirty, admit it. So blogger has been notified, that is GREAT. They can look at all blogs in question, all personal attacks, there are many a gulity party here. You get what I'm saying. Be the bigger person and just back off. Hopefully people will follow.
Who cares who started it? It is all nasty and people have been hurt and offended. There is no one person here to point a finger to. There are lots and lots of mean people involved hiding behind their blogger name. You blog on RWA you are just a different caliber of person that say at IW, generally speaking, but I do feel that it has something to do with what kind of person you are. Some people like to use swear words for whatever reason. It says something about you. You can;t think of other words to use beside curse words and the nasty way Pat talks, you are a sad and low person.
For what it's worth Pat, I had a small stroke too. It was back in 2001. My biggest fear at the time was that it was going to happen again. It never did and after a couple of months I was pretty much back to normal. You seem like a pretty tough cookie. Just use this time to get some rest and enjoy the hospital jello.
Tonya, they told me to quit smoking and as soon as I was released from the hospital I went home, sat down on the front porch and lit a cigarette. I took one drag of it and thought I would pass out. I scrunched it out and have not smoked since. The fear of another, possibly bigger stroke made quitting easy. Fear is a strong motivator. I liked smoking but I like not smoking better. Pat has a lot of stress in her life....I really hope she can quit.
if you're looking for a sweet little sugar coated blog all tied up in a pretty ribbon , this ain't it. there is a simple way to avoid the low and nasty curse words. go somewhere else!
My mom wanted me to post whats going on. She had a stroke and is in the hospital right now. She is doing ... ok as of right now. Ooh and she said, and I quote, "Fuck the trolls! if I get brain damage I will still be smarter than them." LOL.
Casey J. Thank you Dear for Posting. We care about your Mom. Take care of "you" while you are caring for your Mom. She is a strong Woman and a hoot to boot. I admire her strength and determination to overcome so much.
Tonya - the puppy is a doll, and we love them including all their bad habits! (lol) It's the only other dachshund I've seen besides mine with the dapple eye thing going on. They are all cuties, and trolls ragging on our fur-babies just WILL NOT be tolerated!
Nobody does jello like a hospital ... it's the least they can do, with the nasty hospital jammies with your ass hanging out. DD, get all the jello you can. You can hide it in your bra and them new undies and take it home with you, too! It'll be yummy with that fruit basket Santa's bringing ...
Tia sounds like a good plan. Count me in. If I could I would give DD all my strength for the day.
Escrow.. Thank you so much for the updates that means alot.
Moon. I agree with you 100% lets keep dd info private. If she wanted to give it out. DD would of gave it out to everyone.
Anon: Really?? For What??? Because you dont like DD? you dont even know her. Your more obsessed with her. Since you believe you know everything about her. Threats and this vendeta against her and her fam needs to stop a.s.a.p.
Pat ~ no matter what, you will always be smarter than the trolls and all their 'tard redneck relatives. Enjoy your jello, get well and get your butt back here. We miss you.
Thanks You Casey J...So glad to hear that she is doing better..sorry to hear she had any type of stroke. I am hoping she will be back to normal and home soon. I know I miss her as does everyone here...its just not the same on the net without our DD!!!!!
dhwh, I adore dachshunds. They're so cute. We have a Welsh Corgi and a sweeter, hungrier dog never lived. He's also got a long back and very short legs so I imagine he is prone to the same medical problems that dachshunds do. He does this thing where he sits on his butt with his long body sitting straight up. He looks like a doggy totem pole.
I can collect cards if you want to send them to me and I can get them to my mom. Just Email me if you want to send a card and I will give you my address. casey83jones@yahoo.com
I was just thinking.. you fawn over Sammy better than either of her Grandmothers... you better hurry up and get out of there so you can see her pictures with Santa!! They will not disappoint, as long as you were not expecting a happy smiling Santa-loving little girl.
Since this is an open post, I decided to finally get around to joining blogger so I don't have to type my name in with every post I make. I'm sure no one cares but I kind of wanted to see if my picture comes up with this message.
HI...I just got a call from Casey (sweetie that she is) and she gave me Pats number so I called her, she sounds tired but in good spirits, thinks she might be home by friday. I told her that everyone is sending her good wishes and she mentioned she has spoken to a few of her friends from DD. (now I'll go read all the posts, just wanted to let everyone know that Pat is safe and in good spirits)
Casey you are awesome. Thank you for the update, we love your mom and want her to be well.
So anon is now the fricking self-appointed pc police, hu? for someone who defends shitheads (yes SHITHEADS) who prey on people with illnesses, people who have had abusive childhoods, and people's children, and cussing is a problem for them? For fricking real. BITE ME.
Meissa, I suppose you wear your BITE ME tee shirt w/your sandals and brown socks! HAHAHAHAHAHA
Tonya, I gave up on the google account. Every week it would disappear. So now I'm just plain ole anon and have trained myself to sign my name.
Casey, I will be emailing you and I am assuming you are sitting in your mom's room right now w/a laptop so tell your mom I hope I didn't freak her out when I called this morning :)
I'm glad that they know what's wrong & my most sincere hope that DD recovers quickly & fully from this setback. I'm glad that it wasn't something worse. DD, I miss reading your thoughts everyday. I already seems like you've been gone for an eternity.
When you're up to reading these comments, you'll see what an impact you have.
Now see Anon @ 11:00...we are not the ones who are keeping this going. That shit was lame as hell. If you are going to make a video at least make a funny one.
Megan, Go for it! You'll never know if you don't try!!!! And if it doesn't work out---you'll have an answer one way or the other! Not knowing is going to drive you nuts!
mom says she "should" be out by Fri and will post then. She also told me to tell you she doesn't need anything, but your thoughts. She appreciates everything you have done and said already.
Missing you Pat and sending you well wishes and all the best!!! I'm so glad you're being well cared for and hope you can get some rest while you're there.
ldhwh1993, yes my little man is a dapplie do- do. One blue eye. He's an aggressive blanket dweller, as I'm sure you are familiar with. Perfect for nighttime thigh warming. He's a heavy smoker though, as you can see.
esscrow- Oh no! Please let us know the minute you get any info on her ok? Is she alone at the hospital? I pray she's not! Tell her we love her & miss her bunches! WOW!

Please be well.....
We love you!!

Go already.
Thinking of you Pat.
I hope you are okay Pat. Lots of prayers coming your way.
Poor Pat! I could just picture her with only one good arm and trying to scrape ice and snow off the car. That's so sad!
This is her "Coffee Talk" forum where we are supposed to "talk amongst yourselves".
She better get fixed up. Hopefully by tmrw we will know she's ok and on some meds. This sh** is scary tho.
xoxo
Matilda,
Think about trying to change your undies with only one good wing. I hope all is well Pat.
I went to the Christmas Tree Shop and picked up some extra tins today. I am making Peanut butter Buckeyes to give to friends this year.
I picked up some stocking stuffers for the girls.
Tomorrow will be a month since my back surgery and stopping smoking. All is okay on both fronts except for the days my ass hurts and I want a fucking cigarette! LOL
Heidi, Congrats for going a month without smoking!! I'm still fighting that demon. Damn, it's hard! Can't remember how many times I've quit this past year. I'm sick to death of these things but so dependent on them. Pisses me off!
Heidi, Care to post your Buckeye recipe? As I recall they are
fairly simple to make, a batch makes a bunch and taste sooo good.
I've never heard of buckeyes other than the chickens. What are they?
This morning my husband and I cleaned the chicken coop. I never knew how much birds fling their poo, until after we painted the walls a nice 50's sort-of robin's egg blue (oops paint for $5 a gallon at Home Depot---porch paint) and the ceiling white.
We never got any snow during our storm, and very little ice. Bummer.
I sure hope Pat is okay. I feel a little better just knowing that at least she is being seen.
Christina
Christina, Candy. They have peanut butter, powered sugar and
other stuff I can't recall. I think they are dipped in melted chocolate that has paraffin melted with it...Heidi!!! Help. Please share your recipe. I may just have to whip up a batch
I ate gross ass chessy hamburger helper for dinner now i feel sick. i have a headache and 2 retarded finals that i'm pretty sure will fuck up my 4.0 gpa this week. AND i got the wrong ornaments to make gifts with. I also wanna make a freaking third batch of gingerbread cookies beacuse they are so good. and i wonder why the fuck i'm fat. ughhhhhhhh!
Sending good wishes to you though pat! stay healthy :)
Hope all is well with you DD...I will be thinking about you. I hate cold hospitals.
I hate hospitals period, but I am glad DD is there and will be better soon.
Any advice on raising stepchildren? We are recently married and his children are 5 and 9. They are just like their mother. She is a childish, control freak. Uses her anger to control everybody. I can't stand having a 9 yr old thinking she runs the house. She bosses everyone around. Their father is very loving towards them and tries to play games with them and it always turns into a nightmare. Whining every second of the day. If we try positive attention all we get is, snotty comments back. We have a 10 month old together and she is the happiest child you will ever meet. When can I step in and start taking back the house when they are here? I try to stay out of most of it, but I am about to snap. How can two kids make everything we do so miserable?
I think my husband's bipolar/adhd. after xmas when i can get a job and health insurance I will be demanding he do something about it or that's about it for me. he's a mental patient and I am sometimes in awe of his mood swings and crazy ways. I'm basically miserable and am a fraction of my former happy go lucky self. he knows he's screwball but says he will not take a pill everyday. once i give the ultimatum i hope that will change. i have to do it for the sake of my children and I.
anon, slowly step in and start establishing guidelines for how things are gonna be in your house and let dad know that he will have to stick to them also so there's a united front. I have hellion nephews that act crazy at home but they know at my house that shit doesn't fly. Be firm not mean. Kids are very perceptive and know what they can get away with. good luck!
Okay. I think I have one or more skunks under the house where I sit at the computer. I just got another little blast of it. Great. Now I need to try flush it out or call a pest service. I know it needs shelter, but I'm not ready to cozy up with something that smells like that over the winter. Merry Christmas to me. sigh.
Christina
Heidi, congrats on not smoking!! October 3rd was my 2 year mark of not smoking. I used Chantix and it worked like a charm. I didn't expect it to, I had tried to quit a million times and had finally just succumb to the idea that I would be one of those people in my 40's pushing around my oxygen tank smoking my cigarette waiting for my early demise. Now, I traded that addiction for addiction to good health and fitness and I am 32 and in the best shape/health of my life!!! Now I realize it was just the chains of addiction telling me I couldn't quit. Now it seems so silly that I was going to let cigarettes kill me!!! Matilda, keep trying, it will eventually work and life on the other side of smoking is waaaay better!! I would be happy to give you some of my tips if you are interested. Good luck!!
Thinking of you, DD--be well, friend! Lots of luv....

My son and I went to the hairdresser today - my son had a very small trim, a little clean up; I had over 2 inches taken off. My husband walks in and immediately notices Ben's haircut and tells him how great he looks. Then looks at me and says "hi, Hon. How was your day?" Has no fucking clue I chopped my hair off. I know guys are not great at details but, c'mon. He either doesn't like it or seriously did not notice. Pisses me off either way. Fuck him.
DD should be back by now, no? We are all thinking of you, let us know that you are OK.
OMG! I took a final tonight and i was woefully unprepared!!! PANIC!!!!!!!!!!!!! i had to get at least 80% to get an A in the class!!!! i have a big final friday and i haven't started studying!!!
:running in circles panicking! :
Miss Tia, you'll do just fine!
DD is everything ok? Casey J? anything?
Dakota Fanning is all growed up.
http://www.thedailycrabbie.com/2009/12/fanningk-stew.html
Hey, Pat. Here's what I'd do if I were you. Just give up underpants altogether! I am serious - haven't worn then since I was 16 (and I'm 55 now). I know - some of you are going "ew, gross", but I can stand the constriction of underwear, I've never had any sort of "girlie infection", and I am always comfortable and "liberated".
anon w/stepchildren - with hubby's help, set some boundaries for the kids. It sounds like they need it. This tells them what's ok and what's not (rules, chores, responsibilities). Sends a sense of security and lets them know they're loved. Hubby must back you up on these and be a united front. They're young enough that you can treat them as your own but he will naturally have more "pull" since he's parented them longer. Time outs when needed. Best of luck to you!!!
Still thinking of you Pat and hoping you ate getting the care you need.
Got a 96% on my 1st final, only 2 more to go!
anon with stepchildren...this is the hardest thing you will EVER do...but you will have a lot of influence whether you see it or not. Stepchildren will play every head game you can imagine, divorce is so hard on everyone, and a stepmother really gets caught in the middle. Go through your husband, respect their other mother, be really stable and consistent with the children...and above all know that they need a happy home. Best wishes and congrats.
Congrats Nissa! You'll do fine too on the rest!
Valle, sounds like you have a good plan! My brother is bi-polar and can't stay in a relationship 'cause no woman can stand it. He also refuses to take regular medication.
Congratulations Nissa!! I'm impressed!!
I figure it is good/bad news that Pat is not back. Bad because there was no "quick fix", but good because she is finally getting the care she needs. I am concerned but hopeful.
Waiting for news...
Anon with Stepchildren. Good luck. I truly believe Step kids are harder to deal with than our
"own" kids. My Steps are users. I have watched them take advantage of their Father for years. They have no idea how awful their Mom was/is toward their Dad. Your Steps are still young enough for you to take control NOW. I agree with the previous comments. Be firm and kind but do not let them run your home.
Casey J: Any update on your Mom?
We care and are concerned.
Give the stepchildren some positive attention. What they're going through is harder than what you're going through.
Miss Tia & Nissa...BEST of luck to both of you on your finals--you will do GREAT!! Am SO glad those days ended this summer...believe me, graduation will be worth all this agony! ;) Hugs.....

This may seem super silly but I'd like some advice...I recently lost 106 pounds and my confidence has shot up and I feel good about myself. I've been hanging around a guy for a couple months now and I personally think we're in the dreaded "friend zone." I never asked guys out in the past because I was always worried about the way I looked and what they'd think or say and I still haven't quite gotten over that. What are some thoughts on how to tell if it's just a friend or something more? It sounds like a silly question but I'd like some input. My friends that I talk to all know me and I fear they'd say things I WANT to hear as opposed to what I SHOULD hear.
Going on a tangent now, this guy has got me wondering. I e-mailed Pat awhile ago about the topic of fate and I'm curious about others input on the topic. Do you think it exists or is everything just simple coincidences? I am not sure if I believe in it. At this moment in time a lot of events are happening with this guy that are putting us together or bringing us together in random situations. Every time I thought I wouldn’t see him again, something brought us back together. I feel like when I start to think, “I should forget about him,” there is something that brings us right back together, like I shouldn’t let this one get away…then again I could be making too much of the situation! Anyway, just wanted some input.
Megan
Ok, DD - I'm beginning to really get concerned about you. You last post was when you were headed out the door. Sending positive thoughts your way. And hope you're doing well and getting some rest.
Megan,
My personal belief is that there's no such thing as coincidences. Everything - our lives and the events that take place in the cosmos - are predetermined. So to answer your question, yeah, I most definetly believe in fate. But here's the rub - it might be your fate to just be friends with this fellow. Time will tell. Maybe their's something you need to learn from this experience. If that's the case then don't look on this fellow as a missed opportunity for a more permanent relationship. Rather, wait for the natural order of things to unfold and believe that everything happens for a reason.
Megan- congrats on the weight loss! Please, please share how you did it. I am absolutely miserable with my weight and can't seem to stick to a diet more than 5 minutes.
As far as those trying to tame the smoking demon, I used hypnosis. It was just one of these cheap sessions at the local hotel for $40.00 or so. I never expected it to work, but I have not smoked for 10 years. After 22 years of 2-pack a day smoking.
qtrfan - I have been sticking to weight watchers. I use the point system which for me works because I know that I can STILL eat the big mac if the craving hits, I just have to work it out with the rest of the points. If you only have a little bit of weight to lose, weight watchers might be hard because the more you weigh, the more points you have...the same with the less you weigh, the less points. It gets trickier as you lose more and your points go down but so far I'm sticking to it. I still eat normal I just alter a lot of the recipes. Example: Last night I had tacos...typically a fattening item but I used the baked tostitos and for 14 of them it is 2 points...so I had about 3 points worth and then I use the really lean beef and it's 3 points for 4 ounces...pour that onto the chips. After that I use any amount of tomatoes and lettuce. I use weight watchers mexican cheese and the reduced fat sour cream. If I wanted some salsa or onions on it, they are guilt free. So I have this filling meal for about 10 points! If you want any other information you can e-mail me at Zit4life@aol.com
I do not have proper measurements for the Buckeyes because I was never given them..LOL
In a food processer whiz to crumbs, two sleeves of graham crackers. Then put in about a half cup of powdered sugar..whiz again. Then i put in a half a regular size jar of peanut butter (smooth). Whiz together.
Then put some parchment or waxed paper down on a cookie sheet. Start rolling into balls. Not too big.. a little bigger then marble size.
Put that whole cookie sheet in the freezer. I do this in batches and put the frozen middles in lidded containers until I am ready to cover in chocolate.
I use almond bark (find at walmart in chocolate chip section)..it melts very well and sets up nice.
I melt it in bowl in microwave. 30 secs at a time. then check. that way I do not burn it.
Cookie sheet with parchment or waxed paper.
Cover each ball with chocolate and put on parchment. When sheet is full, i put in freezer to set up.
These are good to eat frozen, refrigerated, or room temperature.
You have to mess with the amounts. You may need more peanut butter IF they do not roll easily. Add more sugar if they are good gooey. You want it easy to roll but not peanut butter gooey.
More sugar if they are too gooey..not good gooey..LOL
Thanks for posting the recipe. I think I'll try them today--they sound really good!
Christina
Thinking of you DD. I tried to send you positive vibes last night. I hope it helped some!
I think they done put Pat in the mental ward.
hi qtrfan,
Look up chia seeds. Inexpensive and incredibly nutritious as well as having many benefits aiding in glycemic index control and sugar absorption.

Good Morning All Our Lovelies!
Had a great time at the huge Christmas celebration. Tired today. Hubby is home so I stayed in bed late and it was well worth it. Wink-Wink.
This goes against everything I believe in and I have never done this before but I am this time. I do not believe that Matt is in the hospital or that anything is wrong with him. I have no sympathy at all for him. Why did he make up something "fake" and not "real" like cancer?If by some weird chance this is true then let me just say. My pain is worse than your pain. Hope he is suffering.Sorry but I had to go there!
**
So Matt can't have a REAL legitimate medical problem, but you can? You are delusional Brig. Maybe the Cymbalta is affecting you. And NO one cares if you rolled over onto your trucker husband's boner this morning. Get a life, try some excercise. I saw your little pic and you are overweight, which is quite possibly the reason your are sore. You are out of shape and blame it on a fake illness. Doctor's laugh at you and you take up their valuable time with your ramblings. Not go cut the cheese with your daughter and the little boy you babysit.
Qtrfan,
I had a rare opportunity to quit smoking. I had a discectomy done last month. I knew that I was going to be laid up in the house for quite awhile and would not be able to have access to cigs on my own.
My hubs deserves a big medal. He did not budge. No matter how bitchy I got or how much I cried..he did not get me cigarettes. He did get me a box of Patches and I threw them at his head! LOL
But then I gave up being a big baby. This is what I wanted. So I put on the Patch, chewed bubble gum when I really needed it, and it has been a month today.
You just have to get over that first 3-4 days. If you can deal, you will be past the horrific withdrawl.
Good Luck!
Matt has cancer? GOOD! It couldn't happen to a nicer person. Karma's a bitch huh Matt?
It must be all his cancerous cells that are running around spewing his hatred.
I've found that if you can get your head in the right place to do it then you can quit smoking. Just like losing weight and becoming more physically active. You have to be highly motivated. I always start out with a lot of motivation but after a month or so I lose it for some reason. It's a constant cycle for me. Over the years I've tried patches, gum, Chantix and Allen Carr's book. Everything worked in the beginning because I had the motivation. Now I need to figure out what's going on in my head cause that's the first thing you need to figure out before trying to break a bad habit.
Fellow Dishers
Pat sends a BIG HI ALL! She was admitted to the hospital last night and is undergoing a buttload of tests today. She did suffer a mild stroke but she sounds real good. She doesn't know anything else right now but she send her luvs to everyone for for all the good vibes sent her way.
esscrow
Oh no!...Please send my love and warm thoughts!! I wish we were closer so we could help out....

Escrow~
Can you email me please?
Thanks!
I had a feeling when she was talking about her arm like that.
Sending likes of hugs your way Pat!!
Escrow,
Thanks for letting us know. Gosh, a light stroke! Poor Pat!
Oh thanks for letting us know escrow! Please let Pat know that I send my very best and I am thinking of her. I was afraid that was what happened.
Pat, please get well! Stay positive
I am hopeful for a full recovery for Pat. I had a dream last night that she came back all better.
Hope it comes true soon.
Thanks, escrow
I told her that EVERYONE sends thier LOVE and I could tell she was just floored that someone from Dirty Disher called her. I could feel her heart welling up with love and I bet you dollars to donuts she had tears in her eyes and probably bawled like a baby when we hung up. But it was good tears. She just doesn't understand how much we love her.
escrow
Moon I emailed you
Crap. Can we send her cards?
Please email me, escrow. Thanks.
tvsnark@yahoo.com
All that hatred and mean spirit, all the stress she allows...could have seen it coming.
Escrow;
Thank you so much for the update.
We love you, Pat!!
(You too, Escrow!)
Whoever this is commenting on Brigs health is a coward. Why are you even commenting on this blog anyway? Are you psychotic?
Escrow - Thanks for updating us on Pat.. We all miss her so much and wish her well!! Personally, I don't know what I'd do w/o her everyday!
Get well DD!!
escrow, yes, i agree with tvsnark....can we get a card brigade going???????? where to send?????
please email:
misstiaemail@yahoo.com
we all need to focus healing positive energy to pat!!
who's taking care of bee bee while she's in the hospital??
Sorry to hear this about DD. Sending big hugs her way along with healing thoughts.
I am all for a card brigade also. The cards could go to one central location and THAT person can mail them out to Pat.
We have to figure out how it can be done!
A mild stroke oh my she's in the right place.
Thank you Escrow for letting us all know.
DD we will all be here waiting for your return.
Take care my dear friend positive thots are
sent your way from Canada c/0 Kiki :) xoxo
Megan
A great indicator to how he feels about you is
to try this see how he introduces you to
someone. For example if he says
this is my friend or this is my co-worker
it's platonic in his eyes
but
if he says this is my special lady
it's another level he holds you up to.
Megan if he doesn't introduce you to
his friends /co workers/family / he is
Not telling others means he is not
claiming you or wanting to claim you
by
Proclaiming to others in his life who you are
to him he signifies that you are important to him.
Without going outright and asking him you can
pick up on these subtle tells as to how he feels.
The best thing to do is wait and see and if
you have to guess make a positive guess and
try to just let the friendship develope into what
it will be. I hope this helps & hang in there &
enjoy the time spent with your friend. Kiki :)
if she is in the county hospital, they have an online greeting sender where the hospital gives the greetings to the patient....just went and checked that out....
if escrow could confirm if that's the right place, we could do email greetings....i didn't send one because i didn't know if she was in that hospital or not...
Thanks for the update Escrow! Sending healing thoughts her way as well. I'd also like to send a card or contribute to a care package so if you have an address, please email me.
iambriezy@gmail.com
Thanks for keeping us updated Escrow. I wish her a speedy recovery and will keep her in my thoughts. Would also like to send a card.
I would also like to send her something to keep her spirits up. My email is denissa06 @ axisps.com if anyone has any information!
oh noes! it's tuesday and pat is not around to drive the old ladies!! i am sorry, i just thought of that and started laughing....her mom is probably pounding on dd's door! "i need cat food"
LOL miss tia! I was thinking the same thing! GMTA!
Miss Tia,
I also checked her hometown hospital and saw that you can send an E-Card.
All good thoughts going out to pat in hopes for a speedy recovery. Woman you are LOVED!
Heidi, I've never even heard of the buckeyes but they sound wonderful and I'll have a batch going this weekend! THANKS!
Escrow, which hospital is she in? E-mail me please meissa2112@gmail.com
Thank you so much for the update, our sweet detective!
let's get a ruling from escrow....should we do ecards? or try to coordinate real cards?
of course maybe we should also see how long she'll be in the hospital too...
And pf course include me in the card brigade!
Anyone willing to collect cards? Escrow or Moon please PM me in Musers Forum if this is posible.
Happy thoughts and get well wishes, DD ... its not the same without you! who - me? selfish? Yep!
I don't usually post here, but I read each and every day!
Everyone wants you to get better so nothing but positive energy, on its way to you now!
AND - "Saint" Anonymous ... Fuck you! Poor lil Matt-dick needs sumbuddy to stik up fer him, thoz meen gurlz hert hims feeelins. I know, we can randomly trash on other people's health, that'll show them who's boss. So, F.U.C.K. Y.O.U.
Escrow when you talk to Pat please tell her I've been trying to call her home but the # has changed it seems. Ask her if you can give me her hospital number or cell.... my email is
nadine_clo@yahoo.com
thank you,
Nadine
Just sent an ecard from the hospitals website, I hope it finds it's way to her!
I think it is so sweet how many people care, I know I was worried sick about her.
A mild stroke?! Geez. They better get her fixed up ASAP!
Thank goodness DD is in the hospital. Hopefully they were able to give her that stroke med (TSA or TSP or something like that). My almost-ex husband was home alone and lay on the floor for 4 days before we found him.
He has severe language impairment as a result because there is a small window of opportunity to get the stroke med that can help minimize brain damage.
Get well vibes, Pat!
Fellow Dishers
Right now Pat is in intensive care and can't receive anything. Send her e-cards for now. She doesn't have any idea when she will be released. I would love to tell all of you where she is but without her permission my hands are tied.
Imagine if the trolls got ahold of this info. Nope, no way am I telling.
escrow
biz--i don't think that is the right hospital.....let me know what one you emailed....
misstiaemail@yahoo.com
Oh no. Pat please get well soon We're all sending positive thoughts your way. I would love to be able to send a card.
Is there going to be a collection for flowers or a plant for her? I can't do much but I would certainly contribute something. A small price for all the entertainment her blog has brought me.
DD I hope you feel better soon. Please get well soon. Your little girl lissa needs you. She is your angel. We all need you. I wish I could help anyway. Best of luck DD. Take care.. ( BIG HUG)
thank goodness she went to the hospital and made demands! i hope she's ok. she is my sunshine on many a dreary day. amazing how you can really feel for someone you've never met. hugs and prayers.
Escrow, PLEASE e-mail me the hospital name so I can check the e-cards. PLEASE.
meissa2112@gmail.com
Thinking of you, Pat. Sending positive vibes. I am thankful you decided to go when you did and are now being looked after.
I think we should send her a fruit basket, with lots of oranges!
Pat ~ sending more healing good thoughts your way.
Escrow ~ thanks for the updates.
Maybe Escrow could orchestrate it since she has all the necessary information.
Meissa...her hospital doesn't do ecards:( ....all we can do is keep sending healing vibes
escrow
Best wishes for a speedy recover, DD. I'll be thinking of you.
DD...a few years ago I went into Bobby Trendy's shop in L.A. and he gave me a candle. It's remained unlit till now. Yes...I'm lighting my Bobby Trendy candle for you. That's gotta have some special power, right? ;)
I sincerely hope you can feel all the energy coming your way. You are adored!
Pat ~
I'm doing the best thing that I know how, praying, for you and that you are back home and feeling 100% in no time. I don't comment here often but read here everyday and I find comfort in your words. Please know how much you are cared for by so many people. {{{{{ Hugs }}}} your way and healing thoughts.
Oh, I am sure this is just a big ruse-fake-snowjob, just like Matt Heckman and his hospitalization. Moon mighttry something like this and it might increase her revenue.Don't believe everything you read people. This is just another of crazy Pats stories.Shes prob just sleeping off one.
Now-Brig, what can you come up with?

TAFFOARD
LMAO Briezy ... may Bobby Trendy be with Pat at this time!
That made me smile.
I'm trying to find where Pat first mentioned her arm bothering her, can anyone find it? I thought stroke too, when she talked about scraping the ice off her car, but did she mention it before?
Escrow what hospital is she at?? I went to the website of the one closest to where she lives and they had ecards.
Can you email deets? I will send a real one if I know where she is.
bizy.body@yahoo.com
THANKS!!
I just emailed Casey J .... hope she still has the same addy, if I hear any news I will post it immediately.
Escrow please tell Pat that she's in my thoughts..... and ask if you can give me her whereabouts.. (hospital name etc)
Thanks,
Please do NOT post any addresses regarding Pat on this site.
Please don't.
Ecards are fine for right now. Just send them to her address on the home page of this blog.
Moon is right. Let's respect Pat's privacy. Send your best wishes to her email address.
BOHOMO-you should have advised these dummies earlier. No where she is and what room she is in and also no her street address and that her daughter is with her.
You tell these tards to lay of Matt or I WILL TELL IT ALL and ain't no one her to moderate.
Her store front job,I am talking to the city council about her and her crazy blog. You put a muzzle on Lisa and her bunch-stifle them or the dish pays the price of the mean vile women,
what the fuck kind of illerate fucktard are you 6:43??? threatening DD's job because of some asshole who is trolling this website and posting comments using OUR names on HIS site?????
you can trash us but we can't say anything about you?!
come on over to my blog and harass me....fucker!
you know what 6:43 troll, that comment you posted is reeking of BLACKMAIL....you are threatening her job, and possibly her life since you mention you know where she is....
i've reported you to blogger and they will find out who you are...
stalker!
I'm glad someone said to respect her privacy. If DD wanted us all to know where she was she would have told us already.
Escrow will tell DD that we all miss her and are worried about her, won't you? And if DD wants us to send greetings then Escrow will let us know. Let's all trust her as DD's voice for now. I know you're all worried.... I am too. But we don't need to put more stress on this woman by making her fear that her personal information is being emailed on her unmoderated blog. Let's do what she would want: Light candles, send out positive energy, and wait patiently for some word. Perhaps someone with medical experience will give us their opinion on what is happening to DD? That would be helpful.

You have your information wrong for one, and two go the fuck ahead and do it. Since it is wrong, it will not matter, will it?
I can guarantee you though if you attempt to place personal information about Pat, whether it be correct or not, on this blog or any other, you will face the consequences of said criminal action. You think I am bluffing? try me.
A women is ill in intensive care - you can bet that she will be protected at all costs. I just love the internet bully who thinks that he can say whatever the fuck he wants under the name of "Anonymous". You aren't anonymous. Who you are is as clear as day - and talk about having the "goods" on a person. Yeah, I have them on you. I know everything.
You want to continue to harass this blog? Keep it up, everything is being recorded; it is just more evidence against you.
Pat, Healing thoughts and Prayers
to you.
Escrow, Thank you.
Pat is rich beyond anything superficial - she has all of us who care so much about her.
You're in my thoughts Dirty Disher. Get well soon.
Thank you Tonya. I have relayed all the information that I can. Keep the love and good wishes going to Dirty Dishers. Whew.....I'm getting a little taste of what a blog owner goes thru today LOL. My hats off to all of you who are blog owners! And for keeping it classy.
escrow
Thank you Escrow, no worries. Pleeeeease keep us updated!
Everyone is billy badass under the protection of Anon. What kind of piece of shit does something like this when someone is in the hospital? Oh wait.....You are. You are a fucking Asshat and I wish anal warts on you.
miss tia,
Check your email
Miss Tia: You took the words out of my mouth. How awful to talk about someone like that. That WAS a blackmail threat. People are arrested all the time for posting threats online. Its not a joke and is taken very seriously. I hope this person gets a visit from the cops! Thanks for telling them like it is. I can't believe that. I don't get why someone that hates someone would care so much to try to eff with their life & livlihood. How dare they!
Please get better Pat. I was afraid of that when your arm was out of commission. Love you girly!
xo
Rox
No Escrow, thank YOU for letting us all know how DD is doing and for keeping an eye on her blog. This is an enormous job for you to take on and I, for one, am thankful that you are here. It would be horrible to sit here wondering what was going on and having no answers. Many thanks for sparing me that, Escrow.
Now I am off to the store. While I'm there I will pick up a candle for DD and I will light it for her tonight. I am an atheist and my husband will laugh but I will light it anyway because I believe that it would bring a smile to DD's face.
Gosh I wish I could remember Dishy's password cause I'd mod her comments for her. Should've guessed the numbskulls would come out.
Pat - I'm thinking about you and sending good wishes!!
Thanks Escrow for the updates. :)
Ummm...was that a threat against Lissa? It sounds like it. I mean her grandaughter. Does anyone else think that? It sounds like it & could be taken that way. Like something will happen to Lissa. This is some messed up asshole saying this shit. Do they NOT get that their URL is posted with every comment? Like they are so "invisible". NOT! Wow, Moon, you are right. The evidence is piling up against this stalker and potential kidnapper. Anyone that threatens someones family will reap the vengeance of the masses. Lets see what happens now. It's too late anyway, they have already placed their threats on public display. Wow. Sucks to be them. In more ways than one!!
rox
I'm so worried about our Pat.
missTia, I emailed you.
Crabbie, just leave it. It's serious enough for the police to see. It needs to remain public.
Thanks tho. Good idea. But this is serious. I think Pat would like it left as is. She will need it be left like it was, for prosecution.
I think it is time to turn this in to the authorities. It doesn't matter if it is the net or not. Any type of threat is a threat, whether it be on the net, or in person.
I think Crabbie has reformed. He said "Gosh" on here! That would amuse Pat! Crabbie is a good guy, a nice friend to Pat. I visit you everyday Crabster. I saw your pic on there Melvin. Is that really you? You are nice looking! Let us know if you hear from Pat. She will handle this mess when she gets on. She doesn't need the stress tho. I hope she gets home soon.
rox
Someone asked upthread when Pat had first mentioned her arm/ left side.
I found her entry on the "open post", the one with the black & white picture of a Christmas tree. (to look it up go to Older Posts)Sounds like it happened during the night on Friday/ Saturday. Shortly after Pat's entry, several readers asked about a possible stroke.
dirtydisher said...
Tia, I woke up with no feeling in my entire left side and pain. Now it's back, I feel tingly (that asleep feeling)..we have shit for medical here. I'm drinking coffee and deciding what to do.
December 12, 2009 5:12:00 PM GMT-02:00
How crawling-on-your-belly-through-the-sewer-with-your-balls-covered-in-sludge low can you get? It takes a big man to threaten a sick woman and a helpless child, a real big man! Your momma must be proud, anon 6:43. P.I.G.
DD - feel better, think good thoughts. Fat fluffy snowflakes, making snow angels w/ your gorgeous g-daughter, humongo fruit baskets from Santa, hot cocoa with lots of whip-cream.
You have so many who love you!
Off topic, and I'm sorry - but its the only place I've run into this person ... SHELLY - I love love love your dog (dapple eyed?)
I hope you recover quickly DD. Please take care of yourself.
Hey Pat.
You don't know me but I visited your site months ago, visited with you and your fellow bloggers...and then sent your site to a "friend" who also visited and was impressed enough to do an official google link. What I want to say is even tho I've been gone I've always remembered your kindness and how you could make everyone feel comfortable who visited your site. I'm not using my nick...but I believe in my heart you know who I am. I believe in God and I know he's looking out for you right now. I just want you to get better soon....and remember in this world you have many friends who care about you. I'm sending you all my prayers.
Stevie
tomorrow at NOON CENTRAL TIME (1pm eastern), 10am western? Please sit and send positive warm thoughts to pat! let's all do this together!!! let's give her 5 minutes of our time sending her good energy at NOON CENTRAL TIME WEDNESDAY!!!!!!
We all know ur gonna get better! Positive vibes and the love from all of us will help. Miss you and cant wait to see you back online.
Please be well, Pat. I miss you, and hope you're feeling better. I will light a candle for you, and keep you in my thoughts and prayers.
As a medical person, this is not my specialty, but stroke is what I was afraid of when you first mentioned your symptoms. Those symptoms can mean other things, too, so I am very glad you went to see a doctor and pursued this. Feel better soon, Pat.
Christina
YES, Miss Tia! Sounds like a plan!
Don't forget mountain time 11:00 am
It's a date.

i'm in the middle of taking an exam---on the puter!! i sneaked off here and thought i'd post the idea while i thought of it!!!
NOON CENTRAL TIME!!!
1pm eastern
11am mountain
10am western
if you live outside the continental US, please figure out the time for NOON CENTRAL!!
five minutes of healing, positive energy!!!
You know she threatens people all the time and so does Lisa K to Matt. You are right it is there, on all of these sites, this petty, mean bullying. My opionion is Lisa, you and your girls need to stop, Matt needs to stop-just STOP!
You all are equally to blame-you know who you are. DD is not guiltless, she took plenty of latitude with someone who was supposed to be IWHY, remember that? What comes around goes around. Maybe she is in the hospital, maybe not. For the record I do think she is, but I also think she posts some tall tales and has pissed off lots of folks-as has Lisa K etc...right or wrong, is everyone done now? I think so. TRUCE FROM ALL PARTIES, agreed?
DD, I read here daily, but post rarely. I've been thinking of you and sending prayers up for you since I learned, at Moon's, that you were sick! Take care of YOU and let go of the stress and worry, it never changes anything anyway! God bless!!
MisTia, wonderful idea...5 minutes
for Pat.
LMAO! Moon, you are one to talk about spilling personal info! You set the tone for alot of these women. I don't think that is anything to be proud of. However, I agree with Anon, that enough is enough from RWA and Matt and even you. Everyone just stop the attcks and play nice.
Anon @9:02...
I'm not trying to be mean or nasty but....Its easy for someone to say what you just said because your health issues and your kids have not been involved in this. I have never said anything about these nuts until they started with me/us!!! I think now that the proper people have been contacted these vile idiots will stop...but only because they are made to stop. You don't know the whole story.
Get well soon DD...
Matt stops first.
Lisa K,
I know more than you think. You have played just as dirty, admit it. So blogger has been notified, that is GREAT. They can look at all blogs in question, all personal attacks, there are many a gulity party here. You get what I'm saying. Be the bigger person and just back off. Hopefully people will follow.
I will be sending positive energy tomorrow!
Let us bring Pat home for Christmas.
dhwh1993, I love Shelly's dog too. He keeps that poor woman hopping though. He's got a 4 pack a day habit now, I think.
Anon9.16
I agree and that is good sound advice. Be nice here, there and everywhere!
Thank-you anon. @9:20. Lisa needs to keep this school yard crap at her site. She brought Pat into this last summer and it's ENOUGH.
Who cares who started it? It is all nasty and people have been hurt and offended. There is no one person here to point a finger to. There are lots and lots of mean people involved hiding behind their blogger name. You blog on RWA you are just a different caliber of person that say at IW, generally speaking, but I do feel that it has something to do with what kind of person you are. Some people like to use swear words for whatever reason. It says something about you. You can;t think of other words to use beside curse words and the nasty way Pat talks, you are a sad and low person.
For what it's worth Pat, I had a small stroke too. It was back in 2001. My biggest fear at the time was that it was going to happen again. It never did and after a couple of months I was pretty much back to normal. You seem like a pretty tough cookie. Just use this time to get some rest and enjoy the hospital jello.
Mabel Leaf, do you think they'll make her quit the cigarettes? I'll bet they do.
Tonya, they told me to quit smoking and as soon as I was released from the hospital I went home, sat down on the front porch and lit a cigarette. I took one drag of it and thought I would pass out. I scrunched it out and have not smoked since. The fear of another, possibly bigger stroke made quitting easy. Fear is a strong motivator. I liked smoking but I like not smoking better. Pat has a lot of stress in her life....I really hope she can quit.
if you're looking for a sweet little sugar coated blog all tied up in a pretty ribbon , this ain't it. there is a simple way to avoid the low and nasty curse words. go somewhere else!
My mom wanted me to post whats going on. She had a stroke and is in the hospital right now. She is doing ... ok as of right now. Ooh and she said, and I quote, "Fuck the trolls! if I get brain damage I will still be smarter than them." LOL.
love it! positive energy tomorrow!
Casey J.,
Thank you so much for that!!
Please tell her how much she is loved.
Thanks for the update Casey! I continue to send healing energy your Mom's way.
Casey J. Thank you Dear for Posting. We care about your Mom.
Take care of "you" while you are
caring for your Mom. She is a strong Woman and a hoot to boot.
I admire her strength and determination to overcome so much.
CaseyJ - Now I KNOW she's on the mend, that is the DD we all know and love.
Noon central time, tomorrow it is! The positive is just gonna steam roll over all the bad shit, you wait and see!!!
mmmmmmm.......jello!
Pat loves jello
escrow
Tonya - the puppy is a doll, and we love them including all their bad habits! (lol) It's the only other dachshund I've seen besides mine with the dapple eye thing going on. They are all cuties, and trolls ragging on our fur-babies just WILL NOT be tolerated!
Nobody does jello like a hospital ... it's the least they can do, with the nasty hospital jammies with your ass hanging out. DD, get all the jello you can. You can hide it in your bra and them new undies and take it home with you, too! It'll be yummy with that fruit basket Santa's bringing ...
Tia sounds like a good plan. Count me in. If I could I would give DD all my strength for the day.
Escrow.. Thank you so much for the updates that means alot.
Moon. I agree with you 100% lets keep dd info private. If she wanted to give it out. DD would of gave it out to everyone.
Anon: Really?? For What??? Because you dont like DD? you dont even know her. Your more obsessed with her. Since you believe you know everything about her. Threats and this vendeta against her and her fam needs to stop a.s.a.p.
Casey J ~
Thanks for the update.
Pat ~ no matter what, you will always be smarter than the trolls and all their 'tard redneck relatives. Enjoy your jello, get well and get your butt back here. We miss you.
Thanks You Casey J...So glad to hear that she is doing better..sorry to hear she had any type of stroke. I am hoping she will be back to normal and home soon. I know I miss her as does everyone here...its just not the same on the net without our DD!!!!!
Pat
I will continue to send healing thoughts your way. I am glad you insisted on them finding out what was wrong.
I told you about my friend who had a massive stroke last month and he is coming along slowly but surely.
If there is anything you need just let me know.
Julie
Casey J, thanks so much! You're a doll to keep us updated.... that certainly sounds like the DD that we all know and love.
dhwh, I adore dachshunds. They're so cute. We have a Welsh Corgi and a sweeter, hungrier dog never lived. He's also got a long back and very short legs so I imagine he is prone to the same medical problems that dachshunds do. He does this thing where he sits on his butt with his long body sitting straight up. He looks like a doggy totem pole.
I can collect cards if you want to send them to me and I can get them to my mom. Just Email me if you want to send a card and I will give you my address. casey83jones@yahoo.com
Pat,
I was just thinking.. you fawn over Sammy better than either of her Grandmothers... you better hurry up and get out of there so you can see her pictures with Santa!! They will not disappoint, as long as you were not expecting a happy smiling Santa-loving little girl.
Get better!! Thinking about you!
Casey,
you are very kind to offer, now you better get ready for a full inbox girl.....

Casey, you're wonderful for doing this. Prepare for a full inbox!
Send Pat my love, please.
Since this is an open post, I decided to finally get around to joining blogger so I don't have to type my name in with every post I make. I'm sure no one cares but I kind of wanted to see if my picture comes up with this message.
Pat,
I'm thinking of you. Get well soon. I'm so glad you took yourself to the hospital!!
HI...I just got a call from Casey (sweetie that she is) and she gave me Pats number so I called her, she sounds tired but in good spirits, thinks she might be home by friday. I told her that everyone is sending her good wishes and she mentioned she has spoken to a few of her friends from DD.
(now I'll go read all the posts, just wanted to let everyone know that Pat is safe and in good spirits)
Casey you are awesome. Thank you for the update, we love your mom and want her to be well.
So anon is now the fricking self-appointed pc police, hu? for someone who defends shitheads (yes SHITHEADS) who prey on people with illnesses, people who have had abusive childhoods, and people's children, and cussing is a problem for them? For fricking real. BITE ME.
Tonya,
Me too. lol
dhwh,
What kind of dog is that? We just adopted the sweetest little pup, she's a doxle..I guess, half dachshund half beagle.
Nadine;
Thank you. That is somewhat of a relief.
Meissa, I suppose you wear your BITE ME tee shirt w/your sandals and brown socks! HAHAHAHAHAHA
Tonya, I gave up on the google account. Every week it would disappear. So now I'm just plain ole anon and have trained myself to sign my name.
Casey, I will be emailing you and I am assuming you are sitting in your mom's room right now w/a laptop so tell your mom I hope I didn't freak her out when I called this morning :)
escrow
I'm glad that they know what's wrong & my most sincere hope that DD recovers quickly & fully from this setback. I'm glad that it wasn't something worse. DD, I miss reading your thoughts everyday. I already seems like you've been gone for an eternity.
When you're up to reading these comments, you'll see what an impact you have.
Now see Anon @ 11:00...we are not the ones who are keeping this going. That shit was lame as hell. If you are going to make a video at least make a funny one.
LMAO @ Escrow!! HAHAHAHAHA!! YEP. Sandals and brown socks that's it. And a red T-shirt with a big yellow BITE ME script on it. Heh.
Let it go.
Seriously. Don't lower yourself.
Pat, please feel better soon. Lots of hugs and prayers. XoXo
Escrow... I'm not with my mom. I told her I would come, but she said not to, because the roads would be too bad. She is always looking out for me. :)
Megan,
Go for it! You'll never know if you don't try!!!! And if it doesn't work out---you'll have an answer one way or the other! Not knowing is going to drive you nuts!
Nissa,
Great job on your grade. I don't get a 96% and I GIVE the test!!!!
mom says she "should" be out by Fri and will post then. She also told me to tell you she doesn't need anything, but your thoughts. She appreciates everything you have done and said already.
TOMORROW AT NOON CENTRAL!!! PLEASE!!! 5 minutes for DD!! All focus positive, healing energy to Pat!!!
if we make a collective effort she should be able to feel it!!!
Missing you Pat and sending you well wishes and all the best!!! I'm so glad you're being well cared for and hope you can get some rest while you're there.
ldhwh1993, yes my little man is a dapplie do- do. One blue eye.
He's an aggressive blanket dweller, as I'm sure you are familiar with. Perfect for nighttime thigh warming.
He's a heavy smoker though, as you can see.
esscrow- Oh no! Please let us know the minute you get any info on her ok? Is she alone at the hospital? I pray she's not! Tell her we love her & miss her bunches! WOW!
I'll sleep better tonight knowing Pat is on the mend. Tomorrow at 1pm my time. {if I'm not out gettin the wiener smokes}
miss tia- I'm in. Wed at noon.
