2:13 am
rururocks
no.. we're working it out.. I have to hire a nurse and need to figure out how i'm going to function
2:13 am
rururocks
I weigh two and a half times mrs ru.. she can't really lift me if necessary
2:14 am
rururocks
<----needs a big nurse
2:14 am
jillibus

2:14 am
lynxxx
Hello everyone
2:14 am
rururocks
hi lynn
2:15 am
westford
hello lyn
2:15 am
jillibus
surely one at a time would be better?
2:16 am
rururocks
I'm kinda an all or nothing kinda guy jilli
2:16 am
lynxxx
Can't you hire appropriate stuff Ru? like lift chairs - even hoists (sounds dramatic) to help you get out of bed
2:17 am
rururocks
mrs ru wouldn't trust any equipment around the bed if you know what I mean..lol
2:17 am
westford
generally here you go from hospital to rehab and then home
2:17 am
jillibus
get all of one knee done and then all of the other one ;-)
2:17 am
lynxxx
I agree with Jilli - one at a time.
2:18 am
jillibus
then that will be a double all :-)
2:18 am
lynxxx
You could probably even hire an appropriate bed
2:18 am
rururocks
the right one would only be to repair a meniscus
2:19 am
jillibus
so it can wait a bit!
2:19 am
rururocks
yes.. but then I'd have to do it twice
2:20 am
jillibus
but not the same thing
2:21 am
lynxxx
mmm my message got lost in the ether
2:21 am
jillibus
oh, I think I get it -- are you worried about the anesthetic?
2:22 am
rururocks
sort of.. one of my uncles died on the operating table.. recently
2:22 am
jillibus
that is SO unusual, ruru
2:23 am
lynxxx
oh Ru, that's very sad, I am sorry - but as Jilli said - most unusual. I am guessing there was something seriously wron g with him?
2:24 am
rururocks
nope.. not as far as I know
2:24 am
rururocks
sounds like an oops.. oh gee we're sorry .. he died
2:24 am
flosey

2:26 am
rururocks
i should.. I wish it were easier to find out.. I'm not in touch with my family
2:27 am
flosey

great to hear, jilli! It was very unpleasant for a while, wasn't it :(
2:57 am
rururocks

2:57 am
jillibus

2:59 am
rururocks
I went to a tap class once.. it was a disaster
2:59 am

I tapped for a while and it was fun. It is simply dancing as if you are a penguin :)
2:59 am
rururocks
lol sprite
3:00 am
jillibus
I had tap lessons for a bit when I was 8 -- danced to East Side, West Side All Around the Town
3:00 am
sprite
wow jilli!
3:00 am
jillibus
I still remember the steps (very elementary)
3:02 am
sprite
those silly teenager kids of mine want me to hide easter eggs and make them a cryptic rhyme that tells where the bigger chocolate gift is hidden. I'd have expected them to feel wayyyy too old for that... but they say it is tradition... and have invited their friends, as is tradition here as well. I love it.
3:02 am
jillibus
Sounds super, sprite -- never too old for that kind of fun
3:03 am
sprite
I know! But isn't it amazing that THEY already know?
3:04 am
jillibus
very gratifying, eh sprite?

3:07 am
sprite
you know the risk of wearing one, don't you, jilli?
3:07 am
jillibus
and now, having gone through the list once and having 87 words still to find, I must hie me to bed. Goodnight all, and Happy Easter/Passover. It's supposed to be a sunny day here, for a change.
3:08 am
sprite
sleep well, dear jilli. Dream of friendly eggs and be blessed.
3:08 am
jillibus
What's dangerous about wearing a halo, sprite?
3:09 am
sprite
the opening in the middle. Some people cannot resist the temptation to try and throw a ball through it. Hits me every time.
3:09 am
jillibus
Ouch! LOL!
3:10 am

3:13 am

3:14 am

indeed. I know the feeling. It sucks. Isn't it crazy, how we let that little part of us, the mouth, dictate that whole big rest of us?
3:14 am
crosshair
like the man once said"oit seemed like a good idea at the time"
3:15 am
sprite
lol yes. And it tasted so go4.
3:15 am

it is a process,we learn out innards are not 20 or 30 or 40 anymore and we learn to re-behave
3:16 am

3:21 am
crosshair
i have a diff problem..with my horns,everyone plays ring toss on me
3:21 am
rubyfoo

3:21 am
sprite
yeah well, sorry about that, crossy... you see, that halo I wear is just so handy and it fits so nicely over those horns of yours... can't resist!
3:22 am

sure you do, silly ruby. We all do.
3:23 am

3:28 am
crosshair
you cannot wait for them to grow up,and when they are there,you wish they were small again.you cannot wait till they fly on their own.then you spend the rest of your life inviting them home for dinner or a weekend
3:28 am
sprite
hahaha! I think I am a weird mum. I have always loved seeing them grow up and I still do. Never long back to when they were smaller.
3:29 am
sprite
the only thing we sometimes regret... is teaching them to talk... you spend years and lots of energy teaching them that... and the rest of their childhood to make them shut the heck up.
3:29 am
rubyfoo
my son was too big for me to pick up at 2! And the puppy is almost too big already

3:31 am
crosshair
there is a name,it escapes me,for the wax seal they used to use on letters,you would use your family crest ring while the wax was still pliable...anyone remember the name?
3:32 am
rubyfoo
your family had more noble roots than mine, crossy
3:32 am
crosshair
lol ruby..it is not all good i will tell you...
3:34 am
crosshair
noble roots are kind of like a woman who colours her hair..when the roots start showing she touches them up to hide them again:0
3:34 am
rubyfoo
but you can trace yours waaaay back; I can only go back as far as about 1880
3:34 am
crosshair
lol,i can go right back to the year 1000 ruby,right to the earliest record keeping in france as it turns out
3:35 am
crosshair
all it means is more time to pile the poop
3:37 am
rubyfoo
I just hit the wrong key and lost the game for a couple of minutes :(
3:37 am

we started in france in 960 actually as Mal-Bourn and then to england where our castle was sacked in the 13 or 1400,s(the ruins still stand and changed our name to Melbourne and the rest is infamy:)

1:33 pm
LeslieAnn
i got an idea from marley and me - based on the idea that anything you act like you don't want a dog to have, they want to eat. so when i have medicine for my foster dogs i pretend like they shouldn't have it and they eat it right up
1:33 pm
bichon
He hasn't had any problems passing them through
1:33 pm
jesdraggon
unlikely to be an issue in a large adult cat.
1:34 pm
jesdraggon
but should definitely be kept away from little ones.
1:34 pm
lilliann
normally he vrings field mice and voles and they get scooped up in the dustpan and thrown over the road into long grass but this was too big to do that

5:10 pm

I appreciate the Montessori method, for my nephew it was disasterous, he entered the public school system after 1st grade and still could not read. i fault the teacher more than the method though. She allowed him to do a lot of what he wanted...choices.
5:11 pm

he is reading well now. but had a year of remedial work, which was very upsetting to my sister!
5:11 pm
stidmama
heading out. hope everyone will have a nice evening *poof*
5:12 pm
Bugsaw
exactly red. This teacher was firm but kind. He let the kids choose what they would do unless it meant they were avoiding things and then he added the parts they needed. There was a lot of copying of letters without a lot of reading emphasis on the day I observed
5:12 pm
Bugsaw
bye stid. see you later
5:14 pm
Bugsaw
I liked that he had expectations for the number of things to work on each day and they did not get playtime until the work was completed. Our kids get recess even if they have just played around all morning
5:14 pm
redturtlehead
I think that for so many people reading just "happens" but for him, it was a struggle, and because he really likes to be successful, he really avoided it...
5:14 pm
redturtlehead
I was surprised to see both of her boys are actually doing better in the public school. I had always thought Montessori to be exceptional.
5:15 pm
Bugsaw
I am glad the remedial stuff helped him. Reading is such a wonderful thing
5:16 pm
redturtlehead
Well....onward, I actually need to go for a moment, now that I have spewed. Yes, I am glad too, he is very bright but not focused on reading....
