good morning all
4:01 am
Dianne
Hi sprite - long time no see.
4:04 am
sprite
hi Dianne, indeed. I hope you've been well?
4:05 am
Dianne
I've been good - just dealing with the heat over here. How have you and yours been?
4:06 am
sprite
it's been a bit bumpy, but we are fine. Glad you've been ok. Heat is nasty. One can dress for cold, but not for heat.
4:07 am
Dianne
Well, I hope you are feeling o.k.
4:07 am
sprite
yes, mostly :)
Fighting fear still... I am trying to gather enough courage to go to the shops soon.
4:09 am
Dianne
After you trip to visit Ruby I thought you had that pretty well under control. A litle back sliding?
4:09 am
sprite
yeah a little. Shops are still a horror. Too many people, too many tempers, too many choices.
4:10 am
sprite
but it is good you remind me of that. If I can navigate Paris, I should be able to get some groceries, right?
4:11 am
Dianne
Certainly stay away from the big retail chains. Try to stick to small, local shops as much as you can. Also
4:12 am
Dianne
Also - internet shopping is great. I just place an order with one of the local super markets and they will deliver it tomorrow evening.
4:13 am
sprite
I wish they did that he4 as well. I'd gladly pay a little more for the privilege. But alas, we don't have that he4. Only one such service and it takes days to deliver, and then it claims the right to replace items they don't have in stock with other 'comparable' items.
4:14 am
sprite
still... it might be worth looking into again. They may have become better. Thanks Dianne!
4:16 am
Dianne
Well, I use the internet ordering for all the household goods, canned goods and soda & juices. That stuff is heavy to pull in my trolly. I go to the store for the fresh foods.
4:19 am
sprite
that is really smart. I am looking into it right now, you inspired me. Made me realise there may be a better use for my energy than shopping. I'd rather walk Terra :D
4:40 am
sprite
I think it might be workable, Dianne! Just called them and it seems things are indeed a lot better now. If we could place the order on saturday, they would deliver on Monday and I think I can make a list for stuff we need for 4 days.
4:46 am
Dianne
That's great. Also see if you can give 1st and 2nd choices for some products. Stock up on the household stuff, canned goods and other bulky things that won't expire any time soon. This way your shopping trips will be shorter and more fun.

5:30 am

It was a bit of a slog at the end for me. Slowing down with this one too. Nice to see the 2 of you
5:30 am
sprite
Dianne just opened a whole new vista for me :D Am investigating the possibility of having my groceries delivered. There is only one firm in the Netherlands that does it, alas. But it seems workable.
5:30 am
sprite
hi lyn :) xxx
Always glad to see you. Am slowing down too he4.
5:32 am
lynxxx
Seems like an ideal solution for many - haven't tried it yet myself. However if I can't drive for any reason, I think I would use it
5:33 am
sprite
I can drive, but I get panic attacks in shops. Actually, today I had 3 of 'm just trying to get out of the house to go shopping. I am thinking it just is not worth it. I DO go out. Just not to places with many people. Maybe I should be content with that and not push myself to go shopping.
5:33 am
lynxxx
They even have pick-up points here so you can drive in and collect - and avoid delivery fee. That would be good if you are working and no-one home
5:33 am
sprite
yes, that is awesome too. How very nice. We are rather primitive here still.
5:35 am
Uneaixoise
hey, lynxxx and sprite :-)
5:35 am
lynxxx
Would seem a good idea for you then Sprite - at least try it once and see how it goes. Takes all that pressure off you

hi Une - such a sweet pup. You just can't conceive of anyone dumping it
5:36 am

i know -- just adorable and soooo loving!
5:36 am
sprite
:D I will! Just talked to my love and he went all "Oh no way, that is much too expensive!" but I told him it isn't that bad. We can do this. He promised we will look into it. I think it is a great idea.
5:36 am
Uneaixoise
sprite, that's happened to me a couple of times lately in restaurants . . . when did you start having them?
5:36 am
sprite
oh Une... never! Some people are crazy.
5:37 am
sprite
Une: since I had my breakdown at work. About 8 years ago now, I think.
5:37 am
Uneaixoise
ooohhh . . . do you take specific meds? I have an appt set up with dr next week . . .
5:38 am
Uneaixoise
sorry if i'm getting too personal
5:39 am
sprite
good for you! That is a good decision. Yes, there are me4 that work, like oxazepam. I am very sorry you are having panic attacks.
5:39 am
Uneaixoise
feel free to not respond :-)
5:40 am
Uneaixoise
do you mind if i ask re symptoms . . . dizzy, feeling faint, clammy, heart racing?
5:41 am
sprite
heart racing, shaky, sweaty and clammy, brain won't work worth a damn anymore, feeling of huge distance between me and rest of the world, nausea.
5:42 am
sprite
any of that sounds familiar?
5:42 am
Uneaixoise
ok, all of the above . . . yes
5:42 am
Uneaixoise
don't know re brain not working tho :-)
5:43 am
sprite
:( So sorry, hun. Great you are seeing your doctor. It is important to find out what got you so stressed you are having panic attacks all of a sudden. Also, from my experience, for what it is worth: try not to panic about the panic. Just accept it is a panic attack, keep breathing, and know that it will pass.
5:44 am
sprite
lol @ brain! Sure you do. Like standing in a shop and needing to make a choice, and just standing there... sweating, panting, staring, and not choosing!
5:44 am
Uneaixoise
that is soooo interesting that you would say that -- it definitely gets worse when I "panic about the panic"1
5:45 am
sprite
Une, trust me: been there, done that. That is why I wanted to tell you. It really helps to accept the fact and not panic about it.
5:46 am
sprite
for some reason, hormones in your brain are going haywire all of a sudden. That is all. You just have to sit out the ride, let them settle again. They will :)
5:46 am
lynxxx
BBS need to get something to eat. Sprite you are making so much sense
5:46 am

encouragement much appreciated, spritey

My therapist gave me a card with these coping tips. They take some practice but have been helpful.
Coping With Anxiety and Panic
1. Remember, feelings of panic are just exaggerations of normal bodily stress reactions.
2. Sensations are neither harmful nor dangerous - just unpleasant. Nothing worse will happen.
3. Anxiety is temporary. Instead of fighting it, relax into it. Just let it be.*
4. Focus on facing the fear rather than trying to avoid it or escape from it.
5. Stop adding to the panic with frightening thoughts of where panic will lead.
6. Stay in the present. Be aware of what is happening to you rather than concern yourself with how much worse it might get.
7. Notice that when you stop adding to panic with frightening thoughts, the fear begins to fade.
8. Wait and give the fear time to pass.
9. Look around you. Plan what you will do next as the panic subsides.
10. When you are ready to go on, do so in an easy, relaxed manner. There is no hurry.
11. Think about the progress made so far despite all the difficulties.

read your post br.it is very true but also old as time.if i walk out this door right now and kill someone,well that is murder but if my country does not like another country and goes to war and my president/prime minister/dictator tells me to kill the enemy,well that is being a good soldier.heck i may even get a bit of ribbon or a shiny bit of a bauble for it

when I wanted to be a flight attendant you had to be 5'6" or 5'7"

7:51 am

11:32 am
rubyfoo
why does Dr. God have his fingers crossed? If he can't control our destiny, who is?
11:32 am
MollyL
Screen shot...press Control + Alt + Print screen all at once. Then paste it into Paint and save as you would any image. You will want to resize it if you are sending it to someone. Maybe crop a little too.
11:33 am
jmcnrick
ty molls i wrote that down in a notebook i keep by my computer in the hopes that i only have to ask once or twice

Server switches are a pain in the ass. So many things can glitch.
11:36 am
Judi
I recall server switches here before. Dr. G usually does a good job.
11:37 am
jmcnrick
happily it will always be someone else's pain in the ass for me . . . i will never do one and just walk away when it is being down

Molly, I was saying to my neighbor that today is the same weather as that awful day.
11:50 am
Anniebrook
We lost a neighbor, a wonderful man, he was a fireman and was one of the first to go into the building.
11:51 am
Anniebrook
My friend's daughter walked down 80 some odd floors that day. Her boss saved her life. When the plane hit the first Tower he told everyone in the offfice to get out.
11:52 am

I think all of our hearts were broken, at least a little, that day
11:58 am
Anniebrook
When I worked for Off Track Betting, a customer convinced his daughter to give up her job as a flight stewardess. She then got a position in the Twin Towers and died that day. That poor man was a mess. Terrible.

hello, Babbleland! I'm hungry and indecisive about what eat. I had some dark chocolate sorbet.
12:25 pm
hurshy
hmm sounds yummy
12:25 pm
dcseain
i've moved on to lemon sorbet. i want food, but don't feel like cooking at the moment.
12:25 pm
dcseain
hi, hursh
12:25 pm
hurshy
do we have some kind of range to guide you in? are you limited by ingredients you have in the house, are you going out, what should we suggest?
12:26 pm
dcseain
i was going to make chock chip cookies. then eggs and toast with marmalade.
12:26 pm
dcseain
then decided i didn't really want to cook right now.
12:27 pm
dcseain
so, eating through the sorbet supply. :)
12:27 pm
hurshy
that's why i like to keep hot pockets and stuff in the freezer.
12:28 pm
dcseain
i want broccoli, so i think i'll need to go to the store.
12:30 pm
dcseain
how are things with you today?
12:30 pm
dcseain
? rather :)
12:30 pm
MollyL
Kudos to you Seain. While I like broccoli, I can't say I have ever craved it.
12:30 pm
hurshy
things are ok with me.
12:31 pm
dcseain
i love vegetables, and broccoli and spinach are among my favorites, behind carrots, celery, and onions.

sweet potatoes -- so healthy, and i eat sometimes, but i'm almost never willing to cook them, tasty as they are. But that's the case for me and most potatos.
12:35 pm
hurshy
we have this awesome place here called gourmet heaven and at lunch they have this buffet where you pay by the pound, and it's so great, it's so easy to just do what the new recommendation is - fill half (or more) of your plate with fruits & veggies - they have really good quality produce.
12:37 pm
dcseain
sounds nice. I don't eat meat, so at least half plate with veggies is easy for me.
12:37 pm
LisaG
i have them all now except eo and ed
12:37 pm
bichon
where is it hrshy?
12:42 pm
MollyL
I find I eat more sweet potatoes if I bake a couple at once and then eat them during the week.
12:43 pm
bichon
Sweet potatoes are much better for you than white ones [diabetically speaking
12:43 pm
dcseain
that is the best way to prepare them from my POV, Molly
12:48 pm
dcseain
very true, bichon.
12:50 pm
LisaG
are there any sc words?
12:50 pm
dcseain
LOTS of SC words
12:51 pm
dcseain
10 of them to be exact
12:51 pm
LisaG
well that explains alot, cuz I only have 3 off of that s so far :)
12:52 pm
dcseain
so you have the SLs :)
12:53 pm
LisaG
are all of them scr words, or some scl and sch?
12:54 pm
bichon
is there a scl?
12:55 pm
LisaG
No to me, or Bichon, or both??
12:55 pm
dcseain
scleroderma is a phantom :)
12:55 pm
dcseain
no to scl
12:55 pm
Dorens
i have two sch's, but not listing yet
12:56 pm
bichon
I don't think there's a scl
12:56 pm
dcseain

12:56 pm

Oops, 6 sch's

1:02 pm
dcseain
We sc6.27 to help each other, yielding 3 sc7s. We don't need to sc6 things most of the time, as we interact online.
1:03 pm
dcseain
A sc5 is aka talus, then add two different letters to make a two sc6s.
1:04 pm
LisaG
i have the talus ones
1:05 pm
LisaG
and the upside down e :)
