meliae

ohhh I didnt know you were leaving Lore ((HUGS)) have a wonderful day

3:00 am

westford

do they try to help meli?

3:01 am

meliae

they make their own stuff, they know they are not allowed to touch mine, they are just not coordinated enough and they break things, so they have a Barbie big house with sturdy furniture that I let them paint over and over, its a hideous mess but they love it

3:02 am

westford

oh that's such a good idea

3:03 am

meliae

I tried in the past to let them do one but it was just too overwhelming for them and me, and I found a big old clunky house at a yard sale and bought it for them and they just love it

3:04 am

westford

how long have you been a care giver?

3:06 am

meliae

well when I was 16 (34 years ago) my mom rescued a mentally handicapped lady from an abusive situation, when my mon passed away I took over the care of her and it just grew from there, so I have had Elsie who is 62 (11mentally) basically for 34 years she is like my sister.

3:07 am

westford

you are indeed a wonderful person

3:08 am

meliae

and I got a friend for her that was my second one Ihad her for around 6 years I think but she got pschotic so had to be in a more dr care ttype situation so I got her another friend and it just went on and on, lol

3:08 am

westford

how many do you have at the moment?

3:08 am

meliae

I have 5 permanent one 1 that is just staying for around 2 weeks while her caregiver goes on vacation

3:11 am

meliae

3:11 am

westford

3:53 am

Haz1558

Hello everyone! I have a day off. Yippee!

7:25 am

lilliann

bye carlee, take care

7:25 am

lilliann

hi scrabs

7:25 am

Scrabbler

Miss Lill--how have you been? I haven't seen you in ages.

7:26 am

lilliann

fine thanks scrab.been lurking a bit lately. how are you?

7:26 am

lilliann

anything planned for your day off?

7:27 am

Scrabbler

I am sad that summer is ending because it has been so much fun and there is so much more I want to do before our 5 month winter begins.

7:27 am

lilliann

we haven't really had a summer here, but i know what you mean, i'm not a winter person

7:28 am

Scrabbler

I got to sleep in! 8 AM was better than 6AM. I think I will go biking with my friend that just returned from 10 days in the Netherlands and then England.

7:29 am

Scrabbler

I enjoy cross-country skiing, but I miss the sun during the winter. And the driving is at times treacherous. How is your little one?

7:29 am

lilliann

that sounds nice. where did your friend go in england?

7:29 am

Scrabbler

LOL, I was so proud of myself to notice the Qu tile right away, before coffee, that I keep trying to find Q words when the tile is greyed out!

7:30 am

lilliann

she's not too bad thanks...i was just going to ask you something concerning her

7:30 am

Scrabbler

I will find out details later today when we get together. I know that she took a boat from the Neth. to England.

7:30 am

lilliann

she has been diagnosed with tietze's syndrome, will she out grow it?

7:30 am

EvaNadine

*yawn* mornin babblers!

7:31 am

Scrabbler

Hi Eva

7:31 am

EvaNadine

i already greeted you all over on the sudoku log...can you tell im totally unawake today??

7:31 am

Scrabbler

**quickly looking up Tietze Syndrome because I never heard of it**

7:31 am

lilliann

we've been told to give her pain killers and if it gets worse then she'll have to have steroids, which none of us wants, including the doctor

7:31 am

lilliann

it's to do with the ribs

7:32 am

Scrabbler

Is that the chest pain syndrome?

7:32 am

lilliann

it does have another name beginning with a c, but i can't remeber it

7:32 am

lilliann

yes

7:32 am

lilliann

remember even

7:32 am

lilliann

hi eva

7:33 am

Scrabbler

I do know it then--yes, costochondritis. It is just musculoskeletal pain and will go away soon. It is a strain in the rib cage.

7:33 am

Scrabbler

So, Eva, you said, "Good morning Babblers!" while on the Sudoku site?

7:33 am

lilliann

she's had it 6 months already and doesn't seem to be getting any better

7:33 am

EvaNadine

indeed i did, scrabbler!

7:34 am

lilliann

LOL eva

7:35 am

patact

just reading through chat, noticed the discussion re: costochondritis. My son was just diagnosed with that yesterday.

7:36 am

lilliann

what were you told about it patact?

7:36 am

Scrabbler

It really is a strain in the rib cage, but because we breathe/cough/sneeze, we cannot "rest" the area to allow it to heal faster.

7:37 am

lilliann

and my daughter won't rest anyway scrabs, she's always on the move, which doesn't help

7:38 am

Scrabbler

The rib cage cartilage gets inflamed and the cartilage is the flexible part of the rib cage.

lilliann

it's worse in the morning and evenings, but she also gets it in the day, depending on what she's been upto

7:38 am

patact

For him it's chronic--he's been suffering from it off and on for about 5 years. He thought it was gall bladder and brought on by what he ate, but this last bout FINALLY brought him to the emergency room. They told him to take ibuprofen, use a heating pad (this really works for him) and to avoid impact to the chest area. He works with stage combat, so he the idea of avoiding hits is on his mind.

7:38 am

patact

It seems to come on while he's sleeping.

7:39 am

Scrabbler

Chest pain frightens parents and kids but it is not like chest pain in an adult where we think of a heart attack. But it causes great anxiety.

7:39 am

patact

the mayo clinic website had a lot of information

7:40 am

patact

Yes, chest pain frightening. They did an ekg, xrays, blood tests

7:40 am

lilliann

we thought it was indigestion or heart burn to start with but it wasn't getting any better so we thought we should get it checked out

7:41 am

Scrabbler

If there is a tender area or pain with deep inspiration, then that fits the diagnosis of costochronditis. Tietze Syndrome refers to this with an area of swelling.

7:41 am

lilliann

but she's happy now because she has a name for it

7:42 am

Scrabbler

Oops, we have been using pa4 in the chat...let's all go to the penalty box for treats!!

7:43 am

patact

Son is 23. Hearty laughter also painful yesterday. He was 'hooting' over some comments during the Republican Convention--the pain made him control himself. LOL

7:45 am

Scrabbler

Pat--I read your profile. Where is Elgin?

Elgin, IL...about 30 miles from Chicago.

7:50 am

Scrabbler

7:51 am

Wheaton another suburb. Probably about 20 miles and a vastly different socioeconomic area.

11:16 am

It is a little uncooperative, isn't it.

11:16 am

wickdsmaht

It's making me feel dumb. And I don't think I'm particularly dumb.

11:17 am

Vicuna

In fact, word is you're wicked smart.

11:18 am

wickdsmaht

This is quite true. However, I'm feeling a bit retahded with this grid. :)

11:19 am

kje

LOL - you are funny

11:19 am

nDanLia

you mean you dont know about irrigation ditches, australian snakes, and bosphorus sailing vessels

11:19 am

KnightTime

KnightTime theory on small grids: They seem to be tougher because fewer words build off of other words

11:19 am

KnightTime

in a large grid, there are usually more plurals, gerunds, past tense words, etc. and there are usually a ton of 4 letter words

11:19 am

Vicuna

lol. It's good for smart people to be reminded that they don't know everything!

11:20 am

KnightTime

the 4 letter words show the player the pathways to larger words and derivatives

11:20 am

KnightTime

i takes me less time to do a 180 word grid than a grid like this

11:21 am

Vicuna

All this is true, KnightTime. But the fact remains that some small grids are easier than others! =)

11:21 am

wickdsmaht

No kidding, Knight I totally agree. And I don't even know what "bosphorus" means, especially in regard to sailing vessels.

11:21 am

KnightTime

easier meaning...????

11:21 am

kje

KT - what is that in your icon?

11:22 am

Vicuna

The words are found with less effort, puzzlement and frustration?

11:22 am

KnightTime

a piece of wadded paper

11:22 am

kje

just random... or an art piece... it looks almost human mummifie

11:22 am

kje

11:23 am

KnightTime

the back story is too boring - suffice it to say my son and I disagreed about something

11:23 am

nDanLia

its off Turkey, narrowest strait used for international sea travel

11:24 am

nDanLia

you should submit to MOMA, more creative than some there

11:25 am

kje

doesn't sound boring.... i'm already intrigued

11:25 am

wickdsmaht

Be back later -- off to do something that's slightly less frustrating. Nuclear fission or something, perhaps.

11:26 am

Vicuna

Maybe you can solve world hunger, wickd. Good luck!

11:26 am

KnightTime

I am into nuance, probably because of the nature of my work. So to me there are huge differences in things that can appear to be the same. I used a napkin and a paper towel as an example.

11:27 am

kje

what kind of work KT?

11:27 am

KnightTime

functionally they are similar, but aesthetically and from a market point of view, they are vastly different

1:01 pm

amelu0218

gusting winds and rain... Ike will be interesting... he can't quite decide where he wants to visit...

1:02 pm

amelu0218

yes, if she comes in just south of them, they will be in the area with the most wind and rain... well, other than "impact site"...

1:02 pm

1:12 pm

The problem with dishes I make that are really good is that my teenage boys won't stop eating until there's nothing left! No leftovers for my lunch the next day. :-(

3:29 pm

nancethefan

hey mark

3:29 pm

kje

how about him nance?

3:30 pm

I've been around for a while. Don't chat a lot though. But it seems pointless to try for words in the grid today, though.

3:36 pm

nancethefan

hey shen - i'm not sure

3:36 pm

4:10 pm

icepyro

howdy nutty!

4:10 pm

Pinikula

Besides, I have to spend down my vacation time; I've maxed out and they won't let me earn anymore until some of what I have goes away...

4:10 pm

nancethefan

you got that right pink

4:10 pm

wickdsmaht

Must be a tough life, Pini. ;)

4:10 pm

4:11 pm

4:11 pm

nancethefan

4:11 pm

icepyro

I have 160 hrs and growing... paid time off...

4:11 pm

evanonut

ugh, christmas

4:11 pm

nancethefan

i can't find any words

4:12 pm

Pinikula

it is tough, wickd...I maxed on vacation because they think my taking time off would interefer with work; besides they don't pay me enough to have any leftover money to go on any kind of a "vacation" (away from the backyard) ;)

4:12 pm

wickdsmaht

Goodness. I get a week every six months and that's it.

4:12 pm

Pinikula

We can't cash in our time, pyro...they just stop giving it to us...

4:12 pm

wickdsmaht

And my boss makes me feel guilty for taking it.

4:12 pm

Pinikula

what do you do, wickd?

4:12 pm

Aussieme

I love christmas for the kids, but not for the damn working...... I work in the food trade, and it is a killer across the 4 weeks before christmas..... but..... the week leading up to it, OMG, there is soooo much to do !!

4:12 pm

evanonut

we can cash in our time, but heck on that...i'll take the time off

4:12 pm

nancethefan

that stinks

4:13 pm

Aussieme

I get 192 hours a year..... and bank holidays on top !

4:13 pm

I wish I could, but like wickd, my boss makes me feel guilty...

4:13 pm

Pinikula

.

4:13 pm

wickdsmaht

We're absolutely dead around Christmas. I spend my time here reading novels.

4:13 pm

Aussieme

next year, I get 200 hours holiday.....

4:13 pm

wickdsmaht

Not fair Aussie! I get 9 paid holidays. I guess that's not too shabby.

4:14 pm

Aussieme

mine are paid too Wickd....

4:14 pm

Pinikula

...like they can't live without me being there (I'm the only staff)...

4:14 pm

wickdsmaht

There are only two of us in my office -- if one takes a vacation, it's pretty much hell for the other. Doesn't stop either of us from taking our earned time, though!

4:14 pm

nancethefan

y'all like grand funk railroad?

4:14 pm

Pinikula

...if she's not really careful, I may just take all my accrued time (vacation, sick, pto, and comp) off all at one time...

4:15 pm

icepyro

I get 6 paid holidays and earn pto hours (sick and vacation come from them) based on how long Ive been with company and how many hours worked (currently like 6 hours a pay period)

4:15 pm

Pinikula

...then they could ask me what I did over summer break and I might have something to tell them rather than, "What summer break, I worked!"

4:16 pm

wickdsmaht

We don't get sick days, but it we are sick we should stay home and she'll pay us. However, neither of us is ever sick enough to stay home. We feel too guilty!

4:16 pm

evanonut

i don't know the per pay, but i get 4 weeks a year

4:16 pm

Aussieme

my sick pay is 8 weeks full pay, 8 weeks half pay, and then statutory sick pay, which is peanuts !

nancethefan

4:16 pm

JeeWhiz

Thanks ice...this is a hard one today.

7:57 pm

Scrabbler

She tested positive for the BRCA ge4, as did her mother, so the surgery was a way to eliminate fear.

7:58 pm

evanonut

so she didn't have boob cancer?

8:01 pm

pam

A friend who has since died also opted for the double mastectomy...

8:02 pm

pam

she did, nut, but that g4 that she tested positive for often leads patients to choose double mastectomies

8:03 pm

pam

that g4 is also linked to ovarian cancer, so patients will opt for hysterectomies, too

8:04 pm

icepyro

time to go

8:04 pm
