1:21 am
grannyrose

1:22 am
jbp

1:23 am
joso
Your mom would have liked that, center of attention and a big send off
1:23 am
grannyrose

1:26 am
puglet
Iam glad DIL was there for you. How was your son on that
1:26 am
grannyrose

1:27 am
flosey

1:27 am
flosey

1:27 am

1:55 am
grannyrose

1:56 am
sprite
nah, that is short term nice. Will make you miserable in the morning. Half, max.

1:56 am
sprite
ohhhh good ideas, all, pug
1:57 am
gapeach
Oh, pug, you are so sweet. I'm just rolling along here. It is very cold here....my hands are cold....some hot tea would be the ticket, eh?
1:57 am
flosey

1:57 am
sprite
hi peach *hugs*. Yes, hot tea and warm clothes. Layers!
1:57 am
puglet

1:57 am
grannyrose

1:58 am
sprite
those fingerless gloves are super.
1:58 am
gapeach
Thanks, sprite, dear. Rose, I have the thing set on 72 and I'm still cold....going to turn it up.
1:59 am
grannyrose
you know what, people? i think my mother would have liked her send-off very much. we really did not skimp on anything.
1:59 am
puglet

1:59 am

1:59 am
gapeach

puglet

2:00 am
puglet

2:01 am
grannyrose
yes, pugs. i am sure she could not have faulted anything about today.
2:02 am
sprite

2:02 am
scouser

2:03 am
sprite
hi scouser

Good morning, scouser.
2:04 am
puglet

2:05 am
scouser
Hello gapeach I think this is a difficult grid - too many silly little words
2:05 am
grannyrose
watching antiques roadshow on the tv...wonder if mother will show up?
2:05 am
sprite
lol rose :)
2:05 am
gapeach
I'm beginning too, pugs.
2:05 am
puglet
You had better hope not!
2:06 am
gapeach
I agree, scouser.
2:06 am
grannyrose
we burned her broom...lol
2:06 am
sprite
it is easier when you can move briskly for a few secs, isn't it peach. But that would be very difficult for you, I think.
2:07 am
grannyrose
as we laid her beside dad, i had the most terribly naughty thought...at least dad has had 11 years peace...
2:07 am
sprite
ritual broom burning? With her on it or not?
2:07 am
gapeach
That's true, sprite. Going to make a cup of tea. brb
2:08 am
sprite
all perfectly normal, rose. Naughty thoughts are one way to release decades of tension and stress.
2:08 am
puglet
sitting on a heat pad would help Peach--you could stick your fingers under your hips in between words-lol
2:08 am
puglet
brb got a pug that needs to go potty
2:08 am
scouser
If we can have nitro and retro and and micro why cant we have nano? How do we get to update the dictionary?

puglet
yes she does and after doctor visit we came away thinking that the new thyroid meds they put her on is causing all the problems( or thats what they say)

Hmmm. That is a thought. Are the doctors going to change the med?
3:33 am

I'm into Downton Abbey now. I have the DVD's for the first three seasons and it's fun to watch them again.
3:41 am
sprite
what is that one about?
3:41 am
puglet
Ive never heard of that one
3:42 am
gapeach
There was another one that I liked...Dame Judi Dench....came on after Keeping up Appearances.....darn, I can't think of the name right now.
3:42 am
gapeach
Which one, sprite? I've been blabbing on and on////LOL
3:43 am
sprite
Downton Abbey
3:46 am
gapeach
It is filmed in England in Highclere Castle.....it is brilliantly written by Jullian Fellowes (sp). great actors and is about the Earl and Countess and their servants.....starts with the sinking of the Titanic and they are in the 1920's now.....the clothes are just so beautiful and the script is so good.
3:46 am
puglet
congrats Joso
3:46 am
gapeach
Hey, congrats, joso!!!!!
3:46 am
sprite
is it comedy or not?
3:46 am
puglet
sounds good Peach, but havent seen it
3:47 am
gapeach
Not reall a comedy, although there are some funny times, more about the daily lives of the people and the times.
3:47 am
sprite
sounds fun too
3:48 am
puglet
well I found 100 words so far just now
3:48 am
joso
downton abbey, not a comedy, like upstairs/downstairs but a country house, larger cast, and better done
3:48 am
gapeach
Pug, are you close to a library? If so, you might give them a call and see if they have the DVD's.
3:49 am
puglet
about ten miles away Peach
3:50 am
gapeach
If they will loan them, it would be worth the drive, I think you will like it.
3:50 am
puglet
they wont let people in the country have a card unless you pay a good price for it
3:50 am
joso
I'd take the car then
3:50 am
sprite
and off peach went, straight to the pb, lol
3:50 am
puglet
I have a friend that might check it out for me though
3:50 am
gapeach
That's just not fair!
3:51 am
joso
good plan pug
3:51 am
sprite
good plan, pug
3:51 am
puglet
when I worked in the factory we could have a card just like the city people
3:52 am
sprite
if you have a friend in the city who doesn't do library, you could ask her to get a card for you.
3:53 am
puglet
I do and I will
3:53 am
sprite
stupid unfair rules
3:53 am
puglet
It upsets me too cause we pay taxes too
3:54 am
gapeach
Well, my peeps, it is 5:00AM here, so I'd better be winding down for a while. Blessings.
3:54 am
sprite
don't you have some kind of fair treatment law overthere? I think it would be unlawful to make such a difference here.
3:54 am
sprite
bye peach, lovely to have seen you. *hugs* and have a good day.
3:54 am
puglet
blessings to you too Peach and have a good day
3:55 am
gapeach
Oh, yes, pugs, you can contact your county commissioner and find out what the heck is going on there.
3:55 am
joso
bye peach, rest well
3:55 am
puglet
Its been like that for as long as I can remember
3:55 am
sprite
best reason to change it, imo
3:56 am
puglet
at one time, when I was in grade school they use to have a book bus that came to the smaller towns but that is no more
3:57 am
sprite
too expensive nowadays, probably
3:57 am
puglet
probally true
3:59 am
puglet
Friends I need to get off to tend to Sister and wishing all a good day---hugs to all
3:59 am

good morning everyone..someone please shoot crossy..my poor teeth..groan
6:05 am
Scrabbler
Good morning, CRossy. Oh, no, your poor teeth. When will you be able to see the dentist?
6:05 am
crosshair
saw him yesterday.
6:05 am
Lizlin
Hi Crossy. hugs - didn't the dentist help?
6:06 am
crosshair
they cleaned the right side of my mouth,upper,and lower and the left side(where the problem tooth is) is det for dec 23rd
6:06 am
crosshair
i wonder why they did not start with the problem side first??
6:07 am
Scrabbler
So you are in pain BECAUSE of the dental procedure.
6:07 am
Lizlin
Just what you didn't need - another dentist visit to "look forward to".
6:07 am
crosshair
no,the side cleaned does not hurt,the problem tooh is agony however
6:07 am
Lizlin
Hi Scrabbs. Hope all's well with you.
6:08 am
crosshair
may have to try a phone consult today
6:08 am
Lizlin
Do they know what the problem is? Massive infection?
6:08 am
Scrabbler
Must work all day and be on call tonight. Parents will demand that I heal their sick kids today so that Thanksgiving plans can go on.
6:08 am
crosshair
there is a tooh they suspect is cracked in half down the centre,a molar,but the plaque build up is to heavy to nail it down just yet
6:09 am
Lizlin
Happy Thanksgiving to you - in advance.
6:09 am
crosshair
my own fault of course
6:09 am
crosshair
poor scrabby:((
6:09 am
Lizlin
Ah! So need to clean before diagnosis! Lots of sympathy!
6:10 am
Lizlin
Even if it is your fault!
6:10 am
Scrabbler
Dental problems suck. I had a longterm problem with one tooth for years and ended up having it removed and getting an implant last spring.
6:10 am
crosshair
whole underside of jaw on left is swollen again,so i suspect infection as well
6:10 am
Scrabbler
Parents go nuts before holidays and do not understand that germs do not look at a calendar or that illnesses need time to resolve.
6:10 am
crosshair
first time around he gave me thirty 400 mg amocacillin
6:11 am
Scrabbler
Poor Crossy. Ouch, ouch, ouch!
6:11 am
Lizlin
Did it help?
6:11 am
Lizlin
This has been going on for ages :(
6:11 am
crosshair
wish i were there for you scrabby:(.i would keep you feed while the assembly line of ankle biters go through your office
6:11 am
crosshair
it did,liz,so i am going to try and get him on phone today
6:12 am
Lizlin
There's no reason to suffer the pain if something can be done for you.
6:12 am
Scrabbler
Anxious mothers fill our appt slots. So I see the kids and reassure the mamas.
6:12 am
Scrabbler
se6= spooky communication with spirits
6:12 am
Lizlin
Good scrabbs. Reassuring the poor parents!
6:13 am
crosshair
too many people surfing round the medical site looking up strange and interesting thing?
6:13 am
Lizlin
ty for se 6
6:13 am
Scrabbler
That is our main job. Vaccines have made the bad illnesses disappear. We see healthy kids with self-limited illnesses.
6:13 am
Lizlin
Not seeing much tonight. Too tired. Will probably give up and come back tomorrow.
6:15 am
crosshair
i have a classmate,my age,she has so many things going wrong with her daughter now,two doctors have now labelled her with munchausan by proxy (spelling may be off there)
6:15 am
Scrabbler
Sleep well, Liz.
6:15 am
Scrabbler
I have had two cases with that issue, Crossy. Very challenging.
6:15 am
Lizlin
Enjoy your days. Hope you feel better soon crossy and get those antibiotics.
6:16 am
Scrabbler
Hi kje. Whoa for what?
6:16 am
kje
munchausen.... bad enough when done to self, but doen to a child is scary as hell
6:16 am
crosshair
i am going to see if my jaw warrants it,scrabby.thing is swollen up like an inner tube(the side they did not work on with the bad tooth)
6:17 am
crosshair
oops nm.mixing up my conversations here
6:18 am
crosshair
it is indeed,kje.this woman has her child allergin to about 200 things,i do not comment overmuch though because how do you say what is and what is not with a unending list of ailments
6:18 am
Scrabbler
CPS screws everything up, especially MBPS. So, with my most recent case I phoned all of the involved docs, kept reassuring the parents, and just had to await the next move by the parents. They went all over the US with their kid. Just left my practice last week to try out another doc. Long story--I will email you the story.
6:18 am
Scrabbler
Crossy, did they dig around the gums, pull gums back?
6:18 am
kje
my life is full of crazy too, scrab - lol
6:19 am
crosshair
they dig and scraped the right side,upper and lower lots of plaque came off.i do not thing they had to pull the gums back however
6:19 am
Scrabbler
True, kje. It is sad when a parent WANTS their kid to have a rare diagnosis and does not accept a healthy child.
6:20 am
Scrabbler
Get some ice on there, Crossy.
6:20 am
kje
must run, bbl
6:20 am
crosshair
actually,as i say,the site they worked on is fine,but i have an ice pack on my throbbing left side as we speak
6:20 am
Scrabbler
kje, we could share so many stories. We want to help people and so many do not want our help.
6:21 am
Scrabbler
Tooth pain is brutal and unrelenting.
6:21 am
o-o
Scrabbler, why is what the parents are doing not reportable as abuse?
6:21 am
Scrabbler
I must also leave and get ready for work.
6:21 am
crosshair
you tc and have a good day,scrabby
6:22 am
Scrabbler
o-o, the kids are not in imminent danger so CPS would not have grounds to remove kids from home.
6:23 am
Scrabbler
The kids need to be in foster care, be fed a normal diet, and there would be the proof of no food "sensitivities."
6:23 am
o-o
Just an experience that will haunt them the rest of their lives.
6:23 am
Scrabbler
The older kid for sure.
6:24 am
Scrabbler
OK, I must go now. Enjoy the day, all.
6:24 am
crosshair
i do not recall all these "sensitivities" in the 60,s some of the stuff we played in as kids almost warranted a haz-mat suit but we all seemed to grow up despite that
6:24 am
MimiCat
((crossy)) So sorry you're still hurting...why didn't the other side get worked on? I just took a break from work to see if you were here and must get back. I hope you feel better later. Remember the mantra...bacon and vodka, bacon and vodka....
6:25 am
crosshair
((mimi)) vodka is on the list
6:26 am
crosshair
i was in chair hour and a half.was enough for one sitting mimi,but yes,i wished they would of addressed the bad tooth
6:27 am
MimiCat
Sorry I have to run but trying to get some work done before I go to the cardiologist this morning. I'll be back later this afternoon, though. Big empathetic hug, crossy!
6:27 am
crosshair
and our dental health care coverage is not as forward as our health care,so we wait for money to dribble in for each part of the procedue
6:27 am
crosshair
((mimi)) have a good day
6:30 am
crosshair
though if things totally go haywire,i am covered for a dental surgeon at the hospital. our health care has some nasty quirks as wekk,i am sad to say
6:35 am
crosshair
on a side note,was granny rose able to have her ex-dil at moms funeral?. i hope so

phandmd

6:16 pm

No; I was asking Scrabs. I remember that holidays could either be really busy or pretty darn quiet.
6:16 pm

6:16 pm
Scrabbler
We have a tiny community hospital in our town of 5000 people. There are about 20 beds and we rarely admit kids, maybe 6 yearly. We send most sick kids up north to Children's Hospital of Buffalo, about 35 miles north.
6:16 pm
Nef
I was going to ask how your new job is going phanmd. :-)
6:18 pm
Nef
Good news for you then Scrabs. (Except when one of those sick kids is really bad and needs stabilizing before transport)

The new job is going well. but some days are sadder than others. Yesterday was one of those. I cared for a man who is brain dead and waiting to pass on. I do hope for his family's sake he has already gone.
6:18 pm
Scrabbler
Yes, Nef, or if a laboring mother is too far along to be transported up north.
6:19 pm
Scrabbler
Where do you work, phandmd?
6:19 pm
phandmd
Berkley Medical Center in Martinsburg, WV on the oncology unit.
6:20 pm
Scrabbler
So you see tough stuff.
6:21 pm
phandmd
yes, but I am pretty new at the job, so haven't been exposed to that much yet. There was another man we were caring for (not my patient) that passed yesterday. The family took it real hard.
6:21 pm
Nef
See, I could never work in oncology. That would be so hard I think.
6:23 pm
phandmd
It definitely takes a special person, and I guess I feel I am that so. Not easy but fulfilling.
6:24 pm
Nef
I can imagine.
6:24 pm
Scrabbler
I admire you, phandmd
6:24 pm

I definitely admire those, who work with sick people :)
6:24 pm
