1:12 am

Lizlin

Poor people

1:13 am

Lizlin

Glad your relatives are OK though.

1:13 am

jillibus

1:13 am

jillibus

I keep finding French words that don't count

1:14 am

ARB

1:20 am

ARB

7's finished. One 8 to go.

1:20 am

flosey

first time I've played with Jean, very pleasant time

1:23 am

jillibus

Flosey, you both know what you're doing.

1:24 am

flosey

pretty much, and she's always pleasant, no matter what

1:26 am

jillibus

so I've noticed. J and I had fun -- she has really mellowed.

1:27 am

flosey

I think you make a good team, she's probably quite comfortable with you so can relax

1:28 am

ARB

And of course the last 8 was a plural or a 7 I had found a long time ago!

1:31 am

jillibus

flosey, we, um, had a little discussion. As Marty Bergen says (he of the "Points, schmoints"), "If your partner makes a mistake, sympathise."

1:32 am

VolleymomDee

probably the same one I am missing, arb

1:32 am

flosey

lol, think we have that book - as long as it is a discussion, not a reprimand

1:35 am

jillibus

Sorry, peeps, this is not a bridge game!...*back to babbling for a bit, but bed calls

5:48 am

rubyfoo

5:48 am

sprite

how is life for the two of you?

5:48 am

rubyfoo

I have been slaving away over papers, but it is starting to look better organized

5:49 am

sprite

wow, good job, ruby

5:49 am

rubyfoo

US audits are a bi***!

5:49 am

sprite

ain't that the truth

5:50 am

grannyrose

well, friends, our new unit manager started for real today....so far, i have been told i can't wear 'dangly' earrings in recovery, asked to do stock-take, and told if i am not 100% i can take the time off as sick leave...when i am on work-cover.

5:51 am

rubyfoo

does the unit manager know your history? That all doesn't seem fair!

5:51 am

sprite

omg rose.... DAYUM! How incredibly unsensitive. How are you holding up?

5:51 am

rubyfoo

look whose dog is in here!

5:52 am

grannyrose

i mean...what don't she understand that the reason i feel ghastly is because the pain from my knee has kept me awake since 3am!!

5:52 am

sprite

I'd say... ask for a personal meeting, tell her/him it is clear he/she hasn't been briefed on your situation and that you will explain yourself clearly.

5:52 am

sprite

:) Sweet doggie

5:53 am

rubyfoo

BTW, my Raffie may turn out to be pretty aftr all. She is getting very big and her adult characteristics are starting to show

5:54 am

grannyrose

nm, what goes round, comes round. will talk to my return-to-work officer tomorrow.

5:54 am

sprite

how lovely, ruby. As long as she is happy, and she will be with you, all is well.

5:54 am

sprite

even better, rose. Let's make sure you get the support you need, and not this kind of shit.

5:55 am

grannyrose

and today my new knee is 1 year old. Happy Birthday, knee.lol

5:55 am

rubyfoo

I agree, Rose, they can't possibly ignore your history and how standing on your feet for all these years with your difficult job has caused your problems

5:55 am

sprite

happy birthday, knee :)

5:57 am

grannyrose

*snort* ruby, oh, yes they can....remember that the hierarchy are all younger than i am....they have absolutely no idea how their bodies are going to be in 20-30 years time.

5:58 am

sprite

well, if they cannot imagine how that is, they have NO business being nurses.

5:59 am

rubyfoo

ooh, just found in7 on my own chuffed

5:59 am

sprite

good job

5:59 am

grannyrose

that's what males my rtw officer so special. she is so straight down the middle of the road. she states quite emphatically what is fair for the company, and what is fair for the worker.

6:00 am

grannyrose

*makes*

6:00 am

sprite

sounds like she rocks, rose

6:00 am

grannyrose

yay, ruby. sprite, she is an incredible human being.

6:01 am

sprite

am glad you have her on your side then, rose. You truly need someone who can explain why you have special needs atm.

6:03 am

6:04 am

Anniebrook

hi sprite :)

6:04 am

grannyrose

helloooo annie

6:04 am

Anniebrook

rose, sorry you are being annoyed by a nasty person on the job.

6:07 am

sprite

she may not even be nasty, but she is new and has her own set of goals she will be judged upon. Seems that makes her blind to the human side of stuff.

6:09 am

periwinkle

morning all, help with the up pls

6:09 am

Anniebrook

Is there a Human Resource Dept in Oz where Rose can go and explain her situation with the healing of her knee? Also her many years of excellent nursing care?

6:09 am

sprite

hello peri, no up as far as I can see?

6:09 am

periwinkle

I found an in 7 by myself but that is the only long word I have

6:09 am

Anniebrook

hi peri, just got here

6:10 am

grannyrose

annie, as i said, what goes around, comes around. i sincerely hope she sees just how many times she asked me for advice today. consequently i was up and down that very long corridor all day. i think next thursday, i will stick to my guns, and tell her i am on seated duties only.

6:10 am

sprite

sounds like a plan, rose. Take care of yourself first.

6:10 am

Anniebrook

who is the person, Rose?

6:11 am

grannyrose

annie, our new nursing unit manager.she is flying solo for the first time this week.

6:12 am

Anniebrook

then seated duties, it is.

6:17 am

MLFAN17

peri i just found in 6/8

6:17 am

rubyfoo

6:17 am

rubyfoo

I stepped away as DH needed me for a few minutes and, while I was at it, I pinched off many spent roses

6:18 am

grannyrose

oh, yeah, annie. i don't have a problem in helping out my colleagues in recovery, but she had me running up and down the corridor, as well as all over the hospital today.

6:18 am

rubyfoo

hi mlfan

6:18 am

6:18 am

6:19 am

sprite

you have a lovely garden, ruby

6:20 am

Anniebrook

hello (my almost sane Ruby)

6:20 am

rubyfoo

it is interesting this year, that because of the long cold spring, everything is flowering at once

6:20 am

rubyfoo

ty sprite

6:20 am

Anniebrook

rose, doesn't this fool know you are on desk duty only?

TraderKate

hi everyone! grid looks friendly today, how is it?

2:16 pm

Trifioso

I like hot weather, so I am very happy. Do have a bit of the in7.28 though, that is for sure, but it's not weather related

2:17 pm

westford

hello kate..not too bad but stuck now at 29

2:18 pm

TraderKate

hi westie :) that's very good! i wish i could get that far listless....

2:18 pm

MollyL

*Joins West in an air conditioned room with some iced tea*

2:18 pm

westford

listless is right..no desire to do anything today

2:18 pm

Trifioso

2:18 pm

MollyL

Trif, my condolences to the Boston fans. I was rooting for them.

Trif, I am a Redskin fan. No explanations necessary.

2:20 pm

westford

Sox are (laughing ) in first place for now

2:21 pm

Trifioso

me too, kate, me too. two goals in 17 seconds. painful. But, to be honest, I was so vexed after the second period...so many shots on goal, and they just could NOT get one in. It was pathetic

2:21 pm

westford

kate 2 goals 17 secs apart is hard to beat

2:23 pm

westford

didn't mean to repeat..just typing too slow

2:23 pm

MollyL
