Ckark, could you check the open price for CLR. I have 45.46

[clarkrl2]

yahoo and finviz are showing 45.73. I'll check the historical data tomorrow. 

[architecto25]

I'm an outsider in this discussion; but I use bigcharts for most of my numbers.

And bigcharts shows 45.73 for today's opening.

I'll be on the road at the time I normally post results tomorrow. If I don't get a new thread started and you need to make an early pick just post it to this thread. 

[kadee79]

Hi guys, I'm home.  Got here late last night...took forever for them to get my paper work done & then there were a bunch of missing scripts so had to call Dr.s to get those authorized before I could leave...what a mess.

I'm quite a site, hair standing straight up cause hospital beds aren't good for "do's"!  

I had several things all at one time or right after each other..one fixed & something else went wrong...heart, respiratory & urinary.  Heart Dr. caused some of the urinary problems by putting me on blood thinner...kept telling him I have a clotting problem, I don't need a thinner.  After seeing a wastebasket FULL of toilet paper I'd used for my nose bleedS (no tissues in ICU), he finally took me off.  I was having a nose bleed about every 2-3 hrs due to that thinner to.
It has not been fun.  I'm sick of hospital food.  Now I just need my DH to understand he is going to HAVE to take care of me, not the other way around.
Today he is learning to do laundry! 

[ModE98]

Glad you are out of the hospital and back home!  DH will do the best he can to help around the house, I'm sure. 

A BIG WELCOME BACK!!!!!

[architecto25]

Kadee, that was an excellent "check-in report". Very thorough and complete. Now you should

count all your "get well posts/comments". It's obvious you were missed. Just don't over-do

the "DH, do this; now this; you forgot this, too; and this., etc." ….. Regardless how you feel,

enjoy the weekend. I think the recent bear market is firming a little. I just looked at the

NYSE advances/declines/ & 52 wk. high/lows & the Dow's P&F chart.

Market closes in 15 minutes.

Arch.
