so, rather than dive in, I shall bid you adieu. Nef, my email is in my profile. Write if you want to, I don't know a lot about MS per se, but sometimes the questions from people who don't know can help you think about things in a new light.

2:36 am

Andree

hugo is gorgeous, we have fitted so well and he lets the kids do anything with him, poor thing has spend some of his day in the toy box today, at least he is too big for the pram now!!! a great choice with small children around

2:37 am

Andree

and the work from home office is great

2:37 am

FMitch

LOL re the pram. So glad everything is working out well :)

2:39 am

lynxxx

2:39 am

Andree

hi lynxxx

2:39 am

FMitch

Hi there lynxxx

2:40 am

Andree

1st day of winter here so your garden must be looking good now fmitch

2:41 am

FMitch

Noy quite yet Andree but it is geting there - we are due to be drowned in rain today. What temps do you have on the 1st day of winter?

2:42 am

sandyloo

hi guys, andree what type of dog did you get?

2:42 am

FMitch

Hi sandy.

2:42 am

lynxxx

hi Sandy

2:42 am

sandyloo

its 24 degrees celcius here in Perth and the sun is shining on the first day of winter

2:43 am

Andree

its 5.45pm and 16degrees C

2:43 am

Andree

16-18 predicted all week and rain

2:44 am

FMitch

just working out those temps into f figs.

2:44 am

lynxxx

similar to Melbourne Andree, but drizzle rather than rain

2:44 am

sandyloo

andree what type of dog are you talking about?

2:45 am

Andree

a spaniel/poodle cross called a spoodle

2:45 am

sandyloo

ok, my friend has one - he is a lovely dog

2:45 am

FMitch

lol your winer temps are our summer temps - althought aparently we are going to get up into the high 70s by the end of this week :)

2:46 am

sandyloo

and he doesn't drop hair

2:46 am

sandyloo

my favourite weather is raining

2:48 am

Andree

no he doesn't shed, if i had anything to complain about it would be about keeping his curls brushed as he looks like he has dreadlocks if i leave it a couple of days, he is 9 1/2 months so time has flown

2:49 am

FMitch

Darn must be off for a while - Happy Babbling.

2:49 am

lynxxx

bye FM

2:49 am

Andree

we have very mild winters in sydney, but we still complain about the cold and have the heaters going full pelt,lol

Andree

sammysmom

clue please for the second un 6/21

2:52 am

Andree

i have the plural of the one before sammy

2:53 am

sammysmom

thanks andre- smacked me with it-lol

2:54 am

sandyloo

my friend keeps hers nicely clipped andree and he always looks gorgeous, he is a light golden colour

2:56 am

Andree

hugo is also light gold, his curls are so cute, i cannot bear to have him clipped but will probably have to succumb in the summer as his coat is really thick

2:57 am

sandyloo

I know how you feel andree, I used to have poodles and didn't want them clipped but in the end it is more comfortable and clean for them

3:10 am

Andree

i need to move away for a while, maybe thing will jump up at me later with fresh eyes

3:39 am

Hello and YAh

3:52 am

rubyfoo

good morning! I'm back from my "party weekend" in London

3:52 am

rubyfoo

congraTS SANDY!

3:59 am

rubyfoo

is anybody thee? lurkers?

4:10 am

FMitch

Hi ruby - I am here if you are still?

4:10 am

rubyfoo

hello hello FM!!!

4:10 am

FMitch

How is the trip going??

4:11 am

FMitch

or how was the trip?

4:11 am

rubyfoo

I even played a couple of games with my 13 yr old nephew. We played as Rubyfoo and Shadow (the name of his dog). I'm home, got home yesterday

4:11 am

FMitch

Did you have a good time?

4:12 am

rubyfoo

It is was great! London is, however, for this small-village woman, sort of overwhelming and VERY expensive. After a while, I took the Underground which was pretty scary but at least was inexpensive.

4:12 am

rubyfoo

I forgot how beautiful London is!

4:12 am

rubyfoo

I even danced at the Saturday night party!

4:12 am

rubyfoo

still sore, thugh!

4:13 am

FMitch

well done ruby - the underground can be scary but is very practical.

4:13 am

FMitch

yay ruby - dusted off your dancing shoes :)

4:13 am

rubyfoo

and I got to see y friend who lives in Surrey, took the railroad and felt very brave and proud of meyself!

4:14 am

FMitch

Where does she live?

4:14 am

rubyfoo

I haven't danced in 2 years, used to dance A LOT "in the day"

4:15 am

rubyfoo

she lives in Sunninghill, closest station is in Ascot. We've been friends for about 22 years as her husband (now retired, like us), was a biz associate of my husband, and she and I became friends back then when she visited Miami

4:15 am

FMitch

Noooo!!!! I lived in Sunninhill for ages before I moved last November!

4:16 am

rubyfoo

my nephew and family were very welcome and there was a series of parties and open-house type occasions. I found being around that many people rather tough (again small town, etc) but they were lovely.

4:17 am

rubyfoo

Their house is Oakwood Lodge, Sunninghill. That is an impossibl coincidence! It is beautiful there; When I was still working and was a runner, I used to spend weekends with them and take walks with Margaret and her dogs and used to run in the early mornings.

4:17 am

rubyfoo

that was welcoming! my typing didn't improve over the weekend

4:18 am

rubyfoo

And my friend's garden is magnificent with huge yellow azaleas and rhododendrons.

4:18 am

FMitch

*heads off to google*

4:19 am

rubyfoo

They are South Africans of Scottish descent

4:19 am

rubyfoo

I'm still stunned at the coincidence. It would be like finding somebody who used to live in this {tiny] village!

4:21 am

FMitch

OMG - their house is about 1/2 a mile away from where I lived!

4:21 am

rubyfoo

that is amazing! Do you play golf? You might have known my friend.

4:22 am

FMitch

LOL - No - never got off the driving green. Although Dad did play at Wentowrth.

4:23 am

herinfernallady

Hello

4:23 am

rubyfoo

I'll ask Margaret where she played. She doesn't any more, has bad arthritis etc. Also doesn't have dogs anymore although she had 3 when I met her those many years ago

4:23 am

rubyfoo

hello herin

4:23 am

FMitch

Hi herin :)

4:24 am

rubyfoo

I just found out that the friend outside London whom I visited on Sunday lives about 1/2 mile from where FM lives

4:24 am

herinfernallady

WOW hello (just reading back

4:24 am

rubyfoo

I am smiling like crazy!

4:24 am

rubyfoo

I love that kind of "small world" experience. It's like finding someone who shares your birthday

4:24 am

FMitch

*grin*

4:25 am

FMitch

but have to adjust that to *where FM lived*

4:26 am

rubyfoo

lived*, sorry, too excited to type properly and, BTW, very happy to be home

4:27 am

FMitch

Since I moved I am now in the sticks (and loving it). Loved living in Berkshire for so many years butnow loving it here in West Sussex.

4:27 am

rubyfoo

it is wonderfully quiet "in the sticks" and for me, that is very important

4:27 am

FMitch

Are the dogs happy to see you ruby?

4:28 am

herinfernallady

I still think that is cool

4:28 am

rubyfoo

Ruby was ecstatic; it took Max a little while to remember me!

4:28 am

rubyfoo

very cool, Herin

4:28 am

FMitch

awe

4:29 am

rubyfoo

if "shadow" comes on, using Rubyfoo, you'll know it's my 13 yr old nephew

4:32 am

rubyfoo

he is actually my nephew's son, nephew is 50!

4:32 am

rubyfoo

he has 3 teenage sons, all of whom are amazing -- polite, smart, affectionate, lovely.

4:34 am

FMitch

Laughing so much as a blackbird is taking a bath in the bird bath - such fun!

4:34 am

rubyfoo

I have to make lunch for husband who is SO happy that i'M HOME. i THINK THERE'LL BE SOME PHOTOS ON LINE AND i'LL MAKE A LINK TO MY PROFILE IF/WHEN THEY ARRIVE. a PHOTOGRAPHER FOLLOWED US AROUND ALL WEEKEND!

4:34 am

rubyfoo

whoops, sorry for shouting. Sloppy, cold fingers!

4:35 am

FMitch

Look forward to seeing the pics ruby.

4:35 am

rubyfoo

we have about 20-30 fish left in the pond, so, unless they are all girls, they should re-populate it and husband has quit grieving!

4:35 am

rubyfoo

thank you. Talk to you gals later! ((hugss)); it's very nice to be back

5:20 am

carleekat

hi lynxxx

5:20 am

lynxxx

hi Carlee! how are you?

5:20 am

carleekat

i'm surviving

5:20 am

carleekat

feeling very overwhelmed by my job

5:21 am

carleekat

and u lynxxx?

5:22 am

lynxxx

Huge change jobwise, not surprised. Must be very rewarding when you look back on your day though. and you said yr new boss was supportive?

5:22 am

lynxxx

my days are very boring - and I am still enjoying it

5:23 am

carleekat

yes..she is...but when i make any kind of mistake ifeel like I have completely let her down...and my stomach turns inside o ut

5:23 am

carleekat

doesnt help i've had someone telling me for 20 years that i am incapable..

5:25 am

lynxxx

Everyone makes mistakes. Its only when people don't fess up to them and don't learn from them that is a worry. You won't be letting her down I am sure

5:26 am

carleekat

i know everyone does

5:26 am

lynxxx

As for your last sentence - you KNOW you aren't. Some people can only build themselves up by putting others down - and happily he has gone now.

5:26 am

carleekat

its a learning curve

5:27 am

carleekat

i get it...but i still turn my insides out

5:28 am

carleekat

i find myself giving me a pep talk..and a focus talk and a " just get through today" talk all the time...

5:31 am

carleekat

on top of everything else my dad is sick and we dont know why

5:33 am

lynxxx

I recommend an occasional end of the day chat with your Boss over a coffee. Open up to her a bit about how you are coping workwise. It is very rewarding to have your staff be open and honest with you. She will give you feedback so you can truly judge how you are going at work.

5:33 am

lynxxx

Are they doing tests on your Dad?

5:34 am

carleekat

she does..we do... and yes they are...still nothing...he went from playing golf daily ( no golf cart ) to losing 40 pounds in 2 months and now having to walk with a cane

5:36 am

lynxxx

That does sound serious, he can't be too old either? What are they doing next?

5:36 am

carleekat

no idea... he's 71... i will find out more on the weekend

5:38 am

lynxxx

Not so old (nowadays). Will keep my fingers crossed that they found out the problem soon so he can start getting better

5:38 am

carleekat

thanks lynxxx

5:43 am

lynxxx

Must go and get some dinner. Usually wait til daughter gets home (about 10.30pm) but don't think I can tonight. See you later Carlee

Hi!

6:50 am

guernseygirl

6:50 am

Scrabbler

6:50 am

6:50 am

NonoNanette

Good morning Babblers

6:50 am

Scrabbler

Oops. Maybe I should go to the PB.

6:50 am

Scrabbler

Hi Nanette

6:51 am

Scrabbler

Yay JBV!

6:51 am

guernseygirl

that was helpful clue

6:51 am

guernseygirl

morning, Nono

6:51 am

JBV

I am so busy I haven't had a chance to anticipate the joy of not working yet, but I know it will be great

6:52 am

Scrabbler

Freedom, JBV. As long as you can afford it, it will be nice.

6:52 am

JBV

it's quite intense at work - this is the time we plan for September so there is a lot of pressure right now for me to get things done even though I won't be here

6:53 am

JBV

they have not yet named my replacement - or even interviewed

6:53 am

JFB

And when you do retire you will be so busy you won't know how you found time to work!!

6:53 am

JBV

I don't think anyone wants my job - it's hard enough right now, and with the personnel cuts (thanks to Gov. Christie) the new boss will have less support

6:53 am

Scrabbler

It's been raining here since during the night and the ground sure needs the water.

6:54 am

JBV

that is what I am hoping, JFB

6:54 am

Scrabbler

Hi JFB. That is what my retired friends tell me.

6:54 am

NonoNanette

here too scrabs altho it isn't raining right now

6:54 am

JFB

I'm off to the garden now - this is the best job I've ever had! lol - bbl

6:54 am

Scrabbler

This is not an easy grid, is it?

6:55 am

NonoNanette

guernseygirl

JBV

6:57 am

herinfernallady

Hello My lovelies. Scrabbler I passed on Diaper Free baby stuff to my friend

Scrabbler

6:59 am

herinfernallady

And I agree that Snugle is a word

7:00 am

guernseygirl

7:00 am

NonoNanette

i think its two g's snuggle

7:05 am

Merk

Good morning and good grief ... do we have enough a tiles?

7:06 am

guernseygirl

7:06 am

NonoNanette

Morning Merk, and yes I think there are more than enough A tiles

7:08 am

NonoNanette

still need the u from the right column and the y for NBT

7:09 am

guernseygirl

the y is very difficcult to clue

7:09 am

NonoNanette

how many letters is it ggirl

7:10 am

guernseygirl

just 4

7:10 am

NonoNanette

found it thanks

7:11 am

NonoNanette

sounds like a car that is no longer made but different last vowel

7:11 am

guernseygirl

the u's are like something pertaining to passing water

7:11 am

guernseygirl

that's a better clue. i was working on spelling it backwards

7:13 am

herinfernallady

I found biscuits in the cupboard. Bad bad idea

7:13 am

NonoNanette

NBT finally

7:16 am

guernseygirl

oh, don't mention biscuits, herein - i'm trying so hard not to eat them

7:18 am

herinfernallady

I just found a packet of Kingstons I am disappointed

7:18 am

guernseygirl

what are Kingstons?

7:18 am

herinfernallady

The best description I thought of is err Butternut snaps with choc cream

7:19 am

Scrabbler

Back.

7:19 am

guernseygirl

how could you be disappointed with those - they sound yummy

7:19 am

guernseygirl

hi, Scrabbler

7:19 am

herinfernallady

I am the choc is too thin

7:20 am

guernseygirl

do you have tunnock's chocolate caramel wafers in Oz?

7:20 am

herinfernallady

No.

7:21 am

guernseygirl

if i ever come your way, i'll bring some. they have thick, thick chocolate on them

7:21 am

Scrabbler

Oh, my, I must get ready to leave. Dentist appt, then car maintenance, then visit sister, then spend afternoon with my friend's kids. Bye all.

7:22 am

herinfernallady

Take Care Scrabbler

7:22 am

guernseygirl

my friend brought me some violet crumble when she came back from Perth - because my cat's called Violet. that was the only reason

7:22 am

guernseygirl

bye, Scrabbler, have a good time, although not at the dentist's perhaps

7:23 am

herinfernallady

:D I may have to go to the lolly store and check out the English section

7:24 am

guernseygirl

try Cadbury's fruit and nut. it's milk chocolate wth hazlenuts and raisins

7:24 am

NonoNanette

7:24 am

herinfernallady

We have Cadburys

7:24 am

guernseygirl

i can't buy it because i can't resist it.

7:26 am

herinfernallady

I can't be normal I prefer NZ chocolate

7:27 am

guernseygirl

i don't know what that's like.

7:27 am

7:29 am

rubyfoo

she was ecstatic but it took Max a couple of hours until he recognized me.

7:30 am

rubyfoo

it was good to get away and I was even happy to see my husband again....lol

7:30 am

Riverdance

he was just punishing you for being away

7:30 am

guernseygirl

that's males for you

7:30 am

rubyfoo

no, I think he really couldn't quite place me but once he got up his courage to sniff my head, he was fine!

7:30 am

Riverdance

maybe you need to go away more often - lol

7:31 am

rubyfoo

my legs are still sore from all the walking and dancing I did. And London was pretty cold and I wasn't warmly dressed enough.

7:31 am

periwinkle

hello, did I miss a clue for the Y and the A next to it?

7:31 am

herinfernallady

Ruby is Max your ''special'' dog?

7:31 am

rubyfoo

you're right, mom.

7:32 am

rubyfoo

Yes, Max is autistic -- handsome and very gentle, but extremely timid and on Prozac!

Anniebrook

hi peri

7:41 am

Riverdance

Hello Annie

7:42 am

rubyfoo

terrific, annie, great to get away AND come back to my seriously overgrown garden. Resuming the "war against the weeds" today

7:42 am

Anniebrook

Hi Momneeds

7:42 am

rubyfoo

and the peonies started on Sunday

7:43 am

Anniebrook

I absolutely adore peonies.

7:43 am

rubyfoo

London is more beautiful than I remembered but it's overwhelmingly large!

7:43 am

rubyfoo

peonies are the stars of this garden!

7:43 am

Anniebrook

what color are they?

7:43 am

lynxxx

you are such a country girl now Ruby

7:44 am

rubyfoo

it's true, and to think I come fro NY originally -- lost my city chops

7:44 am

rubyfoo

I have regular pink ones, magenta ones and huge fancy white ones (only 3 flowers this year, though)

7:45 am

rubyfoo

I'm afraid to look at the vegetable garden, it is probably a total mess

7:45 am

Anniebrook

Your garden must be magnificent

7:45 am

rubyfoo

and the roses are all opening - several shades of pink, salmon, violet-pink, pale pink and white

7:46 am

rubyfoo

I love it, but it's mostly complex bords. I think Mom needs has a bigger and better garden

7:46 am

Anniebrook

does hubby help with the garden or is the garden your domain?

7:46 am

rubyfoo

what is good is the color plan

7:46 am

rubyfoo

borders* duh

7:47 am

rubyfoo

I designed it but mostly just point and the handyman does the work. Husband just does the lawns. He refuses to learn the difference between weeds and perennials!

7:47 am

rubyfoo

and I'm too frail to do anything much except weed (and point) lol

7:48 am

Anniebrook

just like a husband. lol. pointing is good.

7:48 am

rubyfoo

my right arm is very strong, especially the index finger

7:48 am

8:39 am

Judi

*clueless* What is the theme today?

8:39 am

EvaNadine

good. home. tan. :)

8:40 am

lovely! Looks good on you, that tan.

Judi: see my profile.

8:40 am

sprite

and welcome home, EvaN. Good trip?

8:41 am

EvaNadine

lovely trip, thankyou. :)
i should have worn more sunblock and been safe, but its nice to have a tan for once!

8:41 am

sprite

moderate sun and tan are good!

8:42 am

EvaNadine

i only have a tan for a little while. i got myself burned first and its already starting to peel...

8:43 am

sprite

same thing here, I don't bother with tanning anymore. Last leftovers of chestnut hair, I guess ;)
I love the sun though, as long as I can keep to the shades.

8:44 am

Judi

Okay. I've conformed to the theme.

8:44 am

sprite

oh, good one, Judi! And HUGE!

8:45 am

EvaNadine

i generally only burn + peel. no matter how little time ive spent in the sun. i generally stay out of it or wear heavy sunscreen, but on the rare occasions that i do find myself burned, i try to enjoy the short period of tan while its there. :)

8:45 am

Judi

Ty. When it comes to wind power, a bigger turbine is better.

8:45 am

sprite

*grins* Indeed, Judi.

8:45 am

redturtlehead

OK returned with one of the engines, or at least some unidentified part of the rocket that went to the moon!

8:46 am

Judi

Close enough, red.

8:46 am

sprite

funny pic! No way to see how big it is, though. But those rocket stuff is always enormous.

8:46 am

redturtlehead

LOL, I took the photo, not every day do I get to use my own photos.

8:47 am

Judi

Ladies, we are now talking about who has the biggest engine. Stop it. Stop it now.

redturtlehead

:D

8:47 am

sprite

lol

8:48 am

redturtlehead

Ok nap time now... g nite all.

8:48 am

9:52 am

Mine was just as exciting - planted flowers at the cemetery

9:52 am

Then, yesterday, my husband opened his side and broke the electric door opener (paint stuck door panels together). Arrrgh.

9:53 am

Uneaixoise

Uneaixoise

5:46 pm

gapeach

lynxxx, I think I will get away from the board for a while....I have so many depressed friends and I try to do my very best to help them and yet I know that, ultimately, they have to want to be helped....not that he doesn't. I just breaks my heart that someone would offer help and then not respond.

5:48 pm

lynxxx

I understand where you are at Peach. It could be that they are logged on all the time (as I am) but not actually playing/reading chat. Let's hope he tries reaching out again to them and they see it

a lot of people have trouble with starches, I think its because we were taught to look at potatos as a veg, but they arent like broccoli.

6:29 pm

crosshair

ty again luv

6:30 pm

cybernan

I don't think it is the potato -- it is the butter, sour cream, cheese and bacon bits that go with it!

6:30 pm

crosshair

potatos i can do,just bread and pasta pack it on

6:30 pm

crosshair

bacon....drool that is totally verboten:(

6:31 pm

redturtlehead

I think a calorie is a calorie. Nothing actually makes you gain more weight or less weight...its just how much of it you eat.

6:31 pm

cybernan

who can turn down potatoes au gratin sprinkled with bacon crumbs?

6:31 pm

crosshair

Hi again. I'm back for more

8:09 pm

Pinikula

hi nef

8:10 pm

Nef

My garden is in; but it shouold be interesting: 45 tomato plants and 28 pepper plants. NO herbs, no greens. DH will have a coniption about that (not to mention all the tomatoes and peppers in such a small space!

8:10 pm

Nef

hi Pini

8:10 pm

Pinikula

gees, going to feed an army or what?

8:11 pm

Boobear

hi Nef and Pini

8:11 pm

gwenski

Sounds like you like salsa!

8:11 pm

Pinikula

hi boo and gwen

8:12 pm

Nef

I bought the 6 plant packs; didn't realize how many there were in that small little pkg. I refused to pay $4.50 for a single plant in a 3 inch pot!

8:12 pm

Pinikula

no kidding!

8:13 pm

Nef

Gwenski, we like salsa but not *that* much! I'll be doing some canning again I guess

8:13 pm

Pinikula

or sharing with the neighbors! :)

8:13 pm

welki

hi, babblers

8:13 pm

gwenski

Our garden is more modest. I haven't learned the art of canning, just the joy of sharing!

8:14 pm

Pinikula

hi welki

8:14 pm

Nef

hi welki

8:14 pm

Pinikula

Last time I tried anything, I planted 2 tomato plants and some herbs...nothing came in worth using and the only thing that has survived is the thyme!

8:15 pm

Nef

I share a lot too. I actually put several plants into 4" pots for my neighbors who are moving away in 3 weeks. :-( (These are the ones I'm "gramma" to their kids)

8:16 pm

8:17 pm

Pinikula

(or am I a day late on that?)

8:17 pm

redturtlehead

It turned out to be alright, not very busy, which gave me time to think.

8:17 pm

redturtlehead

Nah, I finished this morning.

8:18 pm

Pinikula

8:18 pm

8:22 pm

Pinikula

she doesn't leave until the 15th, he starts on the 1st...she's going to "be available" for questions between the 16th and 30th...

8:22 pm

redturtlehead

8:22 pm

redturtlehead

Hmmm, so really she plans to be out of there on the 15th...

8:23 pm

Pinikula

I'm not sure she'll wait that long...she's got short-timers' syndrome now...

8:23 pm

Pinikula

...and, yes, Nef, did you mention the "blockhead" to him??

8:23 pm

redturtlehead

8:24 pm

Pinikula

HE was telling me that the PT therapist thinks he's ready to come home this week. For good. I asked him if he'd told her that hedoesn't use (nor do we own!) a wheelchair! He looked at me like "OH! I didn't think of that!"

8:36 pm

Pinikula

8:36 pm

Pinikula

(except for the chair snafu)

8:37 pm

Nef

It's scary though. He has to be ALONE for 8 to 12 hours when I'm at work; what if he falls and breaks something during a day that I work?

8:37 pm

wildcat17

do you have any friends or relatives who could check on him during the day?

8:38 pm

Pinikula

any friends who might consider taking turns "visiting" for periods during the day?

PIni, are you up for a game of Scramble?

8:41 pm

wildcat17

nef would he use a chair if you had one?

8:41 pm

Nef

my favorite neighbors are moving away in 3 weeks, the neighbor on the other side died in December and the closing on that house is tomorrow, 2 houses down is a retired friend of DH's who has several volunteer "jobs" and most of the rest of the people on our end of the block work full time

8:41 pm

Pinikula

I can be, peri...but should probably take koda out before starting...can you hang here for a few minutes?

8:42 pm

Nef

peri, he's in a rehab/ transitional care unit now

8:42 pm

Minski

Hello everyone!

8:42 pm

I hope y'all had a great Memorial Day Weekend!

8:43 pm

Minski

Does anyone have the TU6/21 please?

8:43 pm

periwinkle

don't know if you can afford it but you can always pay for additon home care. also how old is your DH?

8:43 pm

Nef

I know peri; I'm just starting this whole road right now

8:43 pm

periwinkle

I was a social worker for over 20 years

8:44 pm

periwinkle

did lots of discharge planning

8:44 pm

wildcat17

minski it sounds like a struggle but spelled differently at the end

8:45 pm

Nef

We are in our 60's peri. He's been on disability retirement from the Federal Government and hasn't collected Social Security because if he does, they reduce his retirement pension $2 for every $1 he would get in SS

8:45 pm

periwinkle

there must be a case manager or social worker you can speak with. they should have a meeting prior to discharge and have you and your husband there to discuss discharge options

8:45 pm

jmbdobie2

okay - i give up sort of... can anyone give me a general clue for la7,28

8:46 pm

wildcat17

Minveryork

Good evening to my fellow babblers!How is everyone?

8:46 pm

Nef

And I work for a non-profit because of an OTJ foot injury and can't work as a hospital nurse anymore. My pension isn't enough to live on; but our "income" is too much for us to get help from many sources

8:47 pm

Minveryork

By the way, congratulations to all the finishers! YAY!

8:47 pm

Nef

8:47 pm

8:48 pm

periwinkle

can't think of any more to offer at the momen, Nef. but your husband's safety is most important once he is discharged

8:48 pm

wildcat17

yw and congrats

8:48 pm

Nef

I'm going to ask to talk to a case worker or social worker tomorrow though. You've given me lots of good help

8:49 pm

periwinkle

ask for a case manager or social worker, sometimes they are the same person, stree that he will be alone for long periods of time and see what they say

8:49 pm

Minski

since when is suntea not a word? it is in my world.

8:49 pm

periwinkle

8:49 pm

Nef

Thnaks. I'll do that

8:49 pm

periwinkle

glads I was of some help, Nef

8:50 pm

periwinkle

also Nef, if he does need any equipment make sure that it ordered prior to his discharge

8:50 pm

Nef

you have been. Thank you so much! :-)

8:50 pm

periwinkle

anytime, feel free to e-mail if you have further questions afater talking with somene at the facility

8:51 pm

Nef

8:51 pm

Nef

I'll do that! Thanks

8:51 pm

periwinkle

8:51 pm

periwinkle

you can rent any kind of equipment too

8:52 pm

9:24 pm

Pinikula

9:24 pm

fuzzybunny

you may be able to get a loaner from the rehab, or rent one from med supply house.

9:26 pm

9:28 pm

fuzzybunny

Nef, talk to the discharge social worker at the rehab and tell them what your needs are. Let them know that you are out of the house for an extended period a couple of days a week. It maybe possible to get a home health aid that would come in for 2 - 3 hours on the days that you work, as long as there is a need for personal care that your DH can't do himself.

9:28 pm

Nef

it's a sneaky word today, Barb's

11:14 pm

Barb's Horses

I think i just didn't look there still wondering why my horse acted up today???? I have never seen this side of him...very strange

11:15 pm

Nef

why? What happened?

11:15 pm

Barb's Horses

i really need to get some nice weather again so I can go up and at least lunge him.....He bolted through his door after I wormed him...broke right through a chain almost knocked me over

11:16 pm

gortmold

gotten close to his worms, had he?

11:16 pm

Barb's Horses

my horses have always been very quiet indeed...it kind of unnerved me

11:16 pm

fuzzybunny

Nef, thanks for the advice about refreshing and reloading. It worked.

11:16 pm

Barb's Horses

then when the vet came to give him his summer shots he freaked out again

11:17 pm

Pinikula

11:17 pm

Nef

horses can be really touchy I understand. My sister is a vet and she loves horses and working on them; but doesn't trust them at all

11:17 pm

Nef

great, fuzzy Did you find out what you're missing?

11:19 pm

Barb's Horses

it has been a strange week up there...last wed I got smacked in the back and shoulder by one of the other ones...and yes nef you should always be on your guard for sure...but going on 5 years I have never seen this from him...he would climb in your lap for a cuddle if you let him...guess he was just really having a bad day

11:19 pm

fuzzybunny

yes, the first ta 6/18, i am monkeying like mad!

11:20 pm

fuzzybunny

Hi Pini, hope you had a nice walk

11:20 pm

Barb's Horses

no I don't blame him...just trying to understand the change is all

11:20 pm

Pinikula

didn't really walk...but "monitored" him from the back deck (it's raining out)

11:20 pm

Pinikula

11:39 pm

Barb's Horses

how did it go then?

11:40 pm

Pinikula

wish I didn't have to work, but thankfully I like my job (about 99% of the time)

11:40 pm

Pinikula

got two major projects done (one was in the works; the other I got this morning)

11:40 pm

Barb's Horses

I wish I could go back to work...but no one would want me for only 2 hours a day...and since they do have to hire you for at least 4

11:41 pm

Pinikula

I'd hire ya, barb!! I could use 2 hrs worth of help everyday!!!!

11:41 pm

Barb's Horses

wish I was closer then thanks for the vote pini

11:42 pm

Pinikula

anytime! ;)

11:43 pm

Barb's Horses

I though about volunteering too but again they want at least 4 hours...so I keep my mom company or try to do babble...along with a few chores here or there

11:44 pm

Pinikula

I'm a budget manager for two small departments at a large university; I have someone who does the day-to-day activities in one department, while I do the same in the other; but do the financials for both...

11:44 pm

Pinikula

I didn't realize there was a time requirements on volunteering...

11:45 pm

Barb's Horses

sounds like it could be very interesting

11:45 pm

Pinikula

it definitely keeps me busy ;)

11:45 pm

Barb's Horses

I didn't either....seems silly to me

11:46 pm

Barb's Horses

busy is good...makes the day go by

11:46 pm

Barb's Horses

boy there is alot of sirens going tonight

11:46 pm

Pinikula

11:47 pm

Pinikula

sirens? wow...I rarely hear them...

11:48 pm

Barb's Horses

the back of our house has a main road which leads up to the Golden Ears Park....kids go up an party alot there

11:49 pm

Pinikula

oh my...

11:50 pm

Barb's Horses

It is cute our little dog has to run to the window to watch them go by

11:51 pm

Pinikula

If graduation events don't take my entire weekend, I'll be rearranging the livingroom furniture so Koda can't make the window blinds look even more like they should be in an old trailer park...

11:51 pm

Barb's Horses

what kind of dog is Koda?

11:52 pm

Pinikula

Beagle ;)

11:53 pm

Pinikula

I have a field across the street from the front of my house and periodically, if he sees someone either walking by or playing in the field, he goes absolutely bonkers at the window; thus the massacre of the blinds! :)

11:54 pm

Barb's Horses

I think one of our old dogs was crossed with a Beagle...she was suppose to be huskey and shepard but not big enough for either...she would get the Beagle stance and had the shrill bark too

11:54 pm

Barb's Horses

you could try leaving them open ..... no?

11:55 pm

Pinikula

can't really leave them open 'cuz it would allow too much visibility into the house (not good when I'm not hear)

11:55 pm

Pinikula

* here

11:55 pm

Barb's Horses

She passed away just before xmas last year...she was 17 and had cancer which we didn't know about until it was way too late...she never showed any signs of discomfort...and only slowed in the last year or so
