i didn't know there were options.
9:09 am
crosshair

9:10 am
lbdawger
laser is really fast and painless. same day surgery proceedure
9:11 am
hurshy
then i think that is probably what they are doing, they definitely gave me the impression i would not be there overnight.
9:11 am
MollyL
Always better if it's out patient. Then you can recuperate in the comfort of home.
9:12 am
hurshy

9:27 am
PinnyPoppins
good luck hursh - i had mine out a couple of years ago (aged 30)
9:27 am
uusue2
Just a word of advice - you never know what might happen, so take a magazine or two in case you wind up staying longer than planned (happened to me once - didn't recover fast enough from day surgery, wound up spending the night with nothing to read!!!)
9:32 am
crosshair
ereader to the rescue!! comes with me to every appt
9:33 am
crosshair
some of the large hospitals are going to be getting rid of waiting room books and magazines,they are germ factories in that environment,and they are correct

yaa for lbd!!
9:54 am

oh indeed, i keep my kindle in my bag.

Our hospital has what is called The Sunshine Cart. Books, magazines and newspapers for patients.
10:07 am
Scrabbler
Crossy--I saw link below--adorable photo!
10:08 am
hurshy
i know - my surgeon said 2 weeks recovery and tried to make it sound bad to prepare me, but my aunt and uncle had theirs out (as adults) and said it wasn't that bad at all, so i know it varies. and i had a real easy time when i had my wisdom teeth out so am hoping that also bodes well, although the surgeon said it means nothing.
10:10 am
Scrabbler
Post-op hemorrhaging, even a wk later, is what we see as most common complication, but it's not common at all.
10:10 am
hurshy
i'm a good clotter.
10:11 am
Scrabbler
Coughing and vomiting can dislodge clot/scar tissue. So don't cough or puke.
10:11 am
hurshy
i will endeavor to avoid those activities.
10:11 am
hurshy
i normally endeavor to avoid those activities anyway.
10:11 am

10:14 am
hurshy
it's like some kind of weird reality show, keep hurshy guessing about when she'll have her surgery!
10:14 am
Scrabbler
Unless you are the first patient it will say "to follow" on the surgical schedule.
10:16 am
MollyL
si6, how could I miss an ancient Egyptian percussion instrument (dripping with sarcasm)
10:17 am

uusue2
I need to decide if I really want to retire or if I am just temporarily fed up.
10:28 am
uusue2
but once I don't have killer house payments any more, I should be able to live on my retirement income
10:28 am
Scrabbler
I don't think I will ever be able to retire. I have not saved enough. I am sure you are fed up, Sue. You have had a very difficult year personally and financially.
10:29 am

2:00 pm

it was downloaded directly to my kindle
2:00 pm
periwinkle
not able to do that with a nook
2:01 pm

I am on the waiting list for some other books, I will be notified by e-mail when they are ready.

while I do enjoy talking to myself it would be nice for someone to say something
2:02 pm

That's great Peri. I really like my Kindle.
2:02 pm
periwinkle
I am liking mine too.
2:03 pm
periwinkle
do you get books from the library?
2:03 pm
MollyL
I haven't yet. I only download books as I am able to read them. I have no need to have hundreds on the reader.
2:04 pm
periwinkle
one needs to have wifi to do it the way I did. but you can use a usb cable to get books from your computer that are from the library
2:04 pm
MollyL
I actually read more real books and listen to books in the car more than I use the Kindle. But it's nice to know I can download from the library that way.
2:09 pm
periwinkle
most of the books I have on my kindle were free or .99. Only one cost me$9.99 and it was something I wanted

never owned a new one before.
2:59 pm
crosshair
yaaa for rbud!!
2:59 pm
crosshair
what brand did you get?
3:00 pm
rbud
Amana - with convection oven. Gas, of course, don't like electric burners.
3:00 pm
crosshair
make sure you cook the stove part empty for 30 min at 400f before you do food
3:01 pm
rbud
Ah, good to know, I've not even gotten the instructions out yet, just keep peeking in at the box, lol! :)
3:01 pm

3:01 pm
rbud
got my very first brand new fridge a couple of years back, now this - ooooh, nice.
3:02 pm
rbud
good idea, I can see how there would be such stuff lurking in the oven.
3:03 pm
crosshair
that new oven smell is great,but not on a 50 dollar roast of beef:)
3:03 pm
rbud
got a really good deal on it, an $800 model down to $499 on a 3-day sale, wheee!
3:03 pm
crosshair
ya for mrbud!!
3:03 pm
crosshair
crossy wants an aga range
3:03 pm
rbud
I was suffering from sticker shock until I spotted that one.
3:05 pm
rbud
then went in to pay for it the next day, and some landlord was buying up all the rest of the same model that the store had, for his rentals - good thing I'd reserved one!
3:07 pm
rbud
Would be nice to have something really high-end, but after all these years of old stoves, I'm happy with this one. Aga, huh - didn't even dare look at those, with our budget.
3:08 pm
crosshair
1200 and up
3:09 pm
crosshair
best ranges on the planet
3:09 pm
rbud
I figured. One of those and a subzero fridge, wouldn't I love it!
3:10 pm
crosshair
here they deliver,install and their own store guy teaches you how to cook with it,he spends an afternoon baking with you
3:10 pm
rbud

3:10 pm
rbud
wow! niiiice!
3:10 pm

3:10 pm

for non-pirated free stuff, try: feedbooks.com, gutenberg.net.au or gutenberg.org, mobileread.com, manybooks.net, craphound.com, openlibrary.org, ebookstore.sony.com (yes, they sell books, but have free ones too), barnesandnoble.com (same, they sell but also have free), smashwords.com, spacewesterns.com/articles, or stranghorizons.com
7:35 pm

or the epubbud for freeware
7:35 pm

7:35 pm
herinfernallady
Cos any bought numbers will be banned so they are really tight on invites. it is to by pass some of that issues
7:35 pm
jesdraggon
Also check individual author and publisher websites (baen has an extensive free library), as they often offer free downloads. There is no reason to pirate/steal when there is so much legit free stuff out there.

I do not mean to bo 5/14, but I was able to find mo 4/5 of my words without any clues and I finished this puzzle so here is a story.My favorite elementary school teacher was Mi 4/5 Sm5/14 who taught me in Br 7/36, CT. She had a br 4/6ish accent and I loved the way she talked. I was sm4/5ten with her. My spirits would so 4/4 as soon as I walked into the classroom.She took us on neat field trips. One time my class visited a ba4/6 and I got to see a horse giving birth.Every Friday was Fun Friday and we got to play bo 4/6 games. She had great management. There was this one kid named Br 4/7 who nobody liked. He always st 4/4red up trouble. One ti4/5 he brought a to4/5 to school and put it on another student's desk. He could drive anyone to the br4/6k of insanity, but not Mi 4/5 Sm 5/14. While mo 4/5 teachers would to 4/4 him out for his antics, my teacher tried to work with him on improving his behavior.I was sad to read of her death in the ob4/6uaries. Then in second grade, I got a teacher who was a real do4/5! My mind always got lo4/4 in day dreams because he was so boring. Da 4/5! Hubby wants the computer. I am going to da 4/5 on into the kitchen for a snack. Then I'm going to go do a lo4/5 of laundry. I do hope that you have found lo 4/4 of words with this story and filled more sl 4/4s in Lickety's list. I'll be back later on tonight to clue so4/5 more if anybody needs it.

Was a woman and a man, the woman actually stood her ground and talked to me, but I kept seeing movement to the side, and would move forward to look, and the guy would retreat further around the side of the building. Took about 3 cycles of this for me to figure out that the movement was him trying to stay out of sight, and I was chasing him further and further away.

anyway, I have a shawl I am making for Mother, I think I am close to done actually. Want to pull that out and try to finish tonight. Then I can work on the one for my friend whose b-day is today but I didn't decide I wanted to make her a shawl until Sunday (too late to finish in time). Oh well... *sigh* I'll see you-all again soon! *poof*
