1:10 am

dfmchfhf

nope, I landed on my feet, thankfully.

1:11 am

dfmchfhf

a bit loudly for 2 in the morning, though.

1:11 am

dfmchfhf

congrats jilli! :o)

1:11 am

flosey

I remember slipping on top step (celler steps) flat out on my back, hit head on every step!

WTG JILLIBUS

1:13 am

jillibus

flosey, bro-in-law did that on Xmas day, going up one step, falling backwards. Had to go to Nanaimo hospital in an ambulance -- still laid up.

1:13 am

flosey

oh, wow, I wasn't hurt really, just shook up - skipped choir practice that night

1:14 am

jillibus

He has ankylosing spondilitis (bad back problem) and this is not funny

1:14 am

flosey

that would be a nasty fall

1:14 am

flosey

hmmm, have never heard of that ailment

1:14 am

jillibus

besides, badly bruised hip. More Xrays tomorrow in Victoria.

1:15 am

flosey

they live in Victoria?

1:15 am

jillibus

vertebrae get fused, flosey -- very painful.

1:15 am

flosey

sounds nasty

1:16 am

jillibus

yes, in Oak Bay now -- were visiting their daughter in Nanaimo. He had just finished carbving the turkey but nobody got to eat any.

1:16 am

jillibus

Not a merry Christmas :-(

1:17 am

dfmchfhf

ouch :o(

1:17 am

flosey

no, that's for sure

1:18 am

jillibus

Years ago his rheumatologist said to make sure he never had a fall...I hope there's no serious damage. But he is able to walk with a walker -- painfully.

1:18 am

flosey

Jill, btw, do you know where the home care office is here?

1:19 am

jillibus

Sorry, no, but Boodie will know.

1:19 am

flosey

oh dear, that does sound bad

1:19 am

flosey

I can phone but usually no one there to answer, have to take friend up there tomorrow morning

1:20 am

stidmama

*gentle hugs and thoughts for jill's bro-in-law* hey all

1:20 am

flosey

hi there stid

1:20 am

jillibus

Hi stid,, and thanks!

1:20 am

dfmchfhf

hi stid! :o)

1:20 am

jillibus

flosey -- Boodie is an early riser so you could call her in the am

1:21 am

flosey

we were hoping to get "HOME" care for this gal, she needs injections 3 x week but it would take a nurse an hour to come down here to give it, so we have to arrange drivers for her

1:21 am

flosey

and thed trip alone is very tiring for her

1:21 am

stidmama

oh man, that's a really long drive -- so hard on folks in isolated areas when they need care like that.

1:22 am

jillibus

or call the hospital? Community Services?

1:22 am

flosey

appt is for 11:30, have plenty of time to find out

1:23 am

jillibus

Is this the young lady who can't speak?

1:23 am

flosey

stid she just lives up the road from us and has to go to Ganges but she finds any such outings exhausting

1:23 am

flosey

yes, jilli, has lyme disease but also had a stroke which affected her vocal cords

1:24 am

flosey

she's in mid 30s

1:24 am

stidmama

*finally reads back in chog, wraps dfm in bubble wrap and puts 911 on speed-dial*

1:24 am

jillibus

How frustrating for her -- she's such an attractive looking person

1:25 am

flosey

she is very sweet

1:25 am

jillibus

good idea, stid!

1:25 am

stidmama

that's so rough, flosey. being that age and laid up... (did that but not to that extent)

1:25 am

flosey

has had the lyme since she was around 15

1:25 am

jillibus

stid -- she has to write notes to people instead of talking.

1:26 am

mich_pdx

(sorry to interrupt...hello all 1 left, sleepy, need a clue?) co 5/14,

1:26 am

dfmchfhf

but I landed on my feet this time, stid!

1:26 am

stidmama

there is a fellow in Olympia does that -- a really great guy works in one of the stores. He can hear just fine... we had an interesting conversation once about what he can hear and why I don't eat eggplant. :-D

1:27 am

flosey

that's the co + dry wine

1:27 am

dfmchfhf

a trig ratio, pdx

1:27 am

jillibus

4:38 am

Norma

The small grids are always deceptive lol

4:39 am

frogface

yes, and there are loads of vowels - that's never helpful!

4:39 am

redturtlehead

small grids are killer. Hello everyone.

4:39 am

4:43 am

frogface

dear me - i type 19 words in the first five minutes and then nothing!!! totaly blank minded now

4:44 am

redturtlehead

this is not so easy. and I think it includes some non-word words.

4:45 am

Norma

Go and make a coffee then come back to it .... it always works for me lol

4:45 am

frogface

4:45 am

Scrabbler

Good morning Babblers. 43 words! We need a 2nd grid today.

4:46 am

4:46 am

frogface

i agree scrabbler - good morning and by the way can we please have at least 300 words tomorrow

4:46 am

frogface

bbl coffee time xx

4:47 am

Scrabbler

Grrr, Red, my alarm was set for 6, so I will have to struggle to not be Miss Cranky Pants today.

4:47 am

Norma

Fireworks ....... back tomorrow

4:48 am

redturtlehead

a snack helps me. but we have been holding admits upwards of 22 in a 30 bed ED so... I am cranky.

4:48 am

redturtlehead

yaay Norma!

4:50 am

Scrabbler

Yahoo Norma!

4:50 am

redturtlehead

this grid looks suspicious for containing certain pig calling noises....

4:50 am

Scrabbler

Holding as in waiting for a bed (admission)?

4:53 am

redturtlehead

yes. :( I dont care about holding but with only say 8 beds open for actual patients you can miagine the flow issues we are having.

4:53 am

Scrabbler

And you are holding pts because there are no available beds until someone is discharged?

4:54 am

redturtlehead

yes the Hospital is full.

4:55 am

Scrabbler

So you are functioning as a floor nurse + ED nurse while the waiting room is overfilled with angry people.

4:56 am

redturtlehead

yes, they have not been too angry, but it is very frustrating. the hospital is in process of building a new floor. but there are no windows in that area yet...

4:56 am

Scrabbler

Is the ED closed to ambulance arrivals?

4:57 am

redturtlehead

Unfortunately No. The next nearest hospital is too far away.

4:57 am

redturtlehead

finished off the N.

4:58 am

Scrabbler

I am trying to find the 4th.

4:58 am

redturtlehead

do you have the hangman's item?

4:59 am

Scrabbler

Yep, and something Frenchy looking, and the facial protrusion.

4:59 am

redturtlehead

try then a badly made plural of a negative statement.

5:00 am

redturtlehead

an anagram of your facial protuberance.

5:00 am

Scrabbler

Oh, duh. TY. Don't tell anyone I missed that, especially Haz.

5:00 am

redturtlehead

Runs to tattle on Scrabbs....but will wait as Scrabbs is once again beating her in scrabble.

5:01 am

smaandmea

Morning all. Is this one a nightmare>

5:01 am

Scrabbler

Hey, I am being crushed in several other games, and I am not too far ahead of you.

Not yet, sma. Good day to you.

5:02 am

redturtlehead

Hi smaand. it is not too bad, but it is just like a small grid. tricky. I have 14 left.

5:02 am

Scrabbler

5:03 am

Scrabbler

That i is tricky.

5:03 am

smaandmea

Scrabbler

5:10 am

5:10 am

Scrabbler

I need the third C from the left C. I have ce4 (pl of letter), co4 (salmon)

5:11 am

Scrabbler

I don't have it yet.

5:11 am

5:12 am

frogface

5:13 am

Ray100

Kaplan the Magne

6:56 am

Trifioso

7:09 am

EspritdJean

I think a couple hundred million would be a little more than helpful lol

7:11 am

jmcnrick

i could use it myself

7:12 am

MollyL

I would be happy to split 300 million dollars with someone.

7:12 am

EspritdJean

7:12 am

jmcnrick

you don't actually get 300 million

7:13 am

EvaNadine

mornin babblers!

7:13 am

jmcnrick

you either get it as an annuity with the assumption you will live 26 years or you get 218 million in a lump

7:13 am

MollyL

Okay, I would be happy with my share of half of 300 million after taxes.

7:13 am

jmcnrick

hi evan

7:14 am

jmcnrick

then taxes

7:14 am

jmcnrick

at least no social security or medicare is taken out of it

7:15 am

MollyL

No clue why anyone would take the annuity over the lump sum.

7:15 am

Aloyisius

mornin, Babblers.. teeny weeny grid

7:16 am

EvaNadine

7:17 am

carleekat

7:17 am

jmcnrick

i am fine but i don't know about you so can't answer the question

7:18 am

jmcnrick

yeah i prefer to have at least 100 words

7:19 am

MollyL

100 or more I can milk working the grid throughout the day. Over 200 I just don't have enough time for. I'm not a brainiac who can solve grids like that in 20 minutes.

7:19 am

jmcnrick

i am not solving this one in 20 minutes

7:19 am

Aloyisius

spotted an actual "fish" and a slithery thing too

7:19 am

jmcnrick

7:20 am

MollyL

It took me a while to get the q words. I can never remember how to spell that line up word.

7:20 am

Aloyisius

slithery doesn't quite make it tho.. not four letters

7:21 am

jmcnrick

7:22 am

carleekat

7:22 am

jmcnrick

i keep trying to find the pig call

7:22 am

I think a grid with this many vowels should have been tossed back in the grid machine.

7:22 am

jmcnrick

go car go

7:22 am

Aloyisius

why do keys not work properly? my "c" key is acting up, have to press it more than once.. I swear, I did not spill coffee or other bevs on the keyboard

7:23 am

MollyL

It's not a pig call JMC. It's more of an Aussie expression.

7:23 am

carleekat

1

7:23 am

jmcnrick

there may be grit or grim under it aloy

7:23 am

jmcnrick

well pig call or aussie i can't find it and i know it is there

7:23 am

MollyL

Aloy, try popping the key off and see if there is something underneath. Or blasting it with canned air.

7:23 am

Aloyisius

ty, jmc.. i have some of that air cleaner, will give it a treatment

7:24 am

Aloyisius

7:31 am

jmcnrick

today i go to the Hill and see Ran and Ron Paul be sworn in, meet with a new volunteer, work on a grant application, and meet with my web guy

7:32 am

jmcnrick

then lexulous is perfact for that molly if you have someone who is more or less paying attention at the same rate--i usually do a word a day

7:32 am

carleekat

ohh..that should be fun jmc ( the swearing in)...hey do you go when the new judges are sworn in...federal district court justices

7:33 am

jmcnrick

no just congress because ron paul is a big supporter (politically) of my organization. he hates selective service

7:33 am

jmcnrick

molly dorens is pretty much on top of things with lexulous if you want to play her

7:34 am

carleekat

7:34 am

carleekat

7:35 am

jmcnrick

7:37 am

carleekat

once you been to one....youve been there done that huh?

7:38 am

jmcnrick

something like that

7:38 am

jmcnrick

but i am hoping that Ran may support some of the same things as Ron and that would get us a toe hold in the Senate on some of the bills we would like to see move forward

7:39 am

carleekat

so..i am trying to come up with interesting ideas for this spring with my teens... something out of the ordinary for outing/ activity...we have mystery night..and a chocolate themed sleepover...

7:43 am

carleekat

7:44 am

Mom

and from Kentucky!
Good morning

7:44 am

carleekat

what would happen....hypothetically if the draft was implemented again...? long term...just curious....would that help your cause int he end?

7:44 am

carleekat

morning mom

7:44 am

Mom

Hi JMC

7:44 am

carleekat

7:45 am

Aloyisius

mornin, Mom

7:45 am

EvaNadine

ate it anywho. it goes with my slightly overtoasted bagel...

7:45 am

carleekat

anyone with a Social security number in the pool...mandatory service for 18 month like in israel for which billions of your tax dollars goes to yearly anyway

7:46 am

carleekat

at the age of 18

7:46 am

jmcnrick

in spite of the myth it was not the draft that stop fighting in vietnam--nixon thought if he ended the draft people would stop protesting and they didn't

7:46 am

jmcnrick

not even in isreal is mandatory service universal

7:46 am

carleekat

( i am not saying is right... i am just curiousllthe public outcry..would be monumental....and perhaps....would be a little less likely to sound the battle cry

7:47 am

jmcnrick

no we had a draft before Korea and Vietnam and it actually made it easier because there were plenty of troops

7:47 am

carleekat

my canadian girlfriend at age of 16 was deterred from coming back for 4 months cus her mother israeli/ cdn... and as they follow matrilineal descent...they wanted her for army

7:48 am

MollyL

Oh Eva, had I known, I would have made biscuits. That is the one thing I can't seem to get right. They always turn out like hockey pucks. : D

7:48 am

carleekat

i guess i am thinking the fear of the implementation...not the actual implementation

7:49 am

carleekat

i can make cream puffs they usually turn out as hockey pucks

7:49 am

jmcnrick

you can be exempt from service in israel if you are orthodox jew for example

7:49 am

jmcnrick

i used the bag of biscuits in the freezer myself

7:49 am

jmcnrick

<===terrible baker

7:50 am

carleekat

ok... was just a thought jmc..i would think that all those big whig politicians....if they knew their sons/ daughter were forced into service... there might be less votes for war

7:50 am

jmcnrick

okay things to do even though i am not 1/2 way in this tiny grid

7:51 am

Aloyisius

ok, mulch, here I come.. need to do some outdoor work today as we have a 40% chance of showers tomorrow.. hagd, dear Babblers.. see you all tomorrow!

7:51 am

jmcnrick

their sons wouldn't be forced into the military or they would serve like W did -- without even showing up

7:51 am

carleekat

ok..enjoy your day jmc ( hope i didnt upset you...)

7:51 am

jmcnrick
