Oh, don't get me started on insurance issues! GROAN. Yeah, I know where you're comin' from, Girlfriend. I don't work anymore either, and I have to pay for my own insurance. It's EXTREMELY expensive. I pay $383/month for just me alone -- not hubby -- and it doesn't include dental. Actually, I feel fortunate to be able to get it! When I had my colonoscopy, wow, it was EXPENSIVE -- I thanked my lucky stars that I had insurance! And then when I was hospitalized with diverticulitis, again $$$$$ BIG TIME -- insurance (for me at least) is a necessary evil of life.

Please ask your hubby for me what I'm doing wrong when I refinish wood pieces. After I finish staining and sanding, when I apply the varnish it looks fine -- until it starts drying, and then it turns white! I have to sand off the varnish, apply a sanding sealer, then varnish again! I never had this problem in the past, so I'm blaming this new stain or this new varnish, or a combination thereof. Any clues?

In November (or July), we'll have to have a party to celebrate our mutual 60th birthdays, Pat!

P.S.: Sorry about getting off the subject of IBS; in the future we should be posting such issues in the Living Room.

If your doctor can put you on it, I'd go for it! I asked my hubby to check with his doctor to see if he can't take it. His doctor declined, saying Don hasn't shown any signs of Altzheimers -- yet. When he does, then he'll give him the med.

ANY kind of prevention or ANYTHING that will slow down the progression of this horrible disease -- until they find a cure for it -- is, in my opinion, a Godsend.

Thanks for sharing your story, Pat. Lets talk some more in The Living Room. We certainly have a lot in common!

By the way, my name is Bev. I am also called Bevrs and Bevvy -- I'll answer to anything except the "erly" part. The only person who calls me that is my mother, and only when I'm younger than 18! [** shudder ** ]

When my husband gets home I will ask him about the furniture you're working on. Have to try the other sight. Have never used it. All this is new to me. Thanks, will go and try it out.
