When our kids were little we had an old house with a laundry chute from the second floor and a dumbwaiter from the basement pantry (where there was a "canning kitchen" to the inside of one of the kitchen cupboards ---it was heavenly and the kids liked going up and down the dumbwaiter (until I found out)

1:35 am

chickieo8

you gotta love them.lol

1:35 am

westford

great bird lol

1:35 am

bookwomen

we used to frighten my mom when she was in the basement by dropping all sorts of stuff down the chute. I bought a stuffed cat for them and dropped it down. You could hear the screams all over the neighborhood.

1:36 am

Birdeee

LOL

1:36 am

1:40 am

bookwomen

our cats would not have enjoyed it.

2:05 am

herinfernallady

Mr PRes put some Shea butter on it it will recede in colour

2:05 am

Night Jellen. Mr pres is it warm at your end and how is Maddis foot

2:08 am

mrpresident

warm ... not yet... it will be nasty tomorrow and worse thursday and a week after that!
Maddie is doing well thanks hun! Foot is healing nicely :)

2:08 am

Birdeee

Mr P is it larger than the area of the "regular" scar?

2:08 am

mrpresident

yes birdee, it is

2:09 am

herinfernallady

You have a pool right?

2:09 am

mrpresident

we does. but the humidity is what kills us... burns the eyes

2:10 am

Birdeee

cause there are regular hypertrophic scars (which are raised scarred areas) and keloids which grow out from scarred areas, sometimes like fingers. Can you tell who had to go to her dermatologist today to talk about a surgical scar that was bothering her???

2:10 am

herinfernallady

That would suck for me.

2:11 am

mrpresident

oh birdee!!

2:11 am

mrpresident

where is your scar?

2:11 am

MrP can sympathise with humidity we had 81% with temp 35 C a few days ago - make me feel like wrung out rag
