1:57 am

Lizlin

Hi sprite - hugs.

2:12 am

puglet

I got up with a darn nose bleed this morning. I get them once in awhile in the winter due to the dryness

2:12 am

sprite

argh that is awful, pug. Such a mess to clean up after :( I know, it happens to me sometimes too.

2:13 am

Lizlin

Rehi! Just read your mail - phone "pinged". No offense taken. I've been dipping in and out of the grid today!

2:13 am

puglet

2:13 am

sprite

hi Liz! *hugs* Am glad, would hate to hurt your feeling.

2:13 am

sprite

feelings*

2:14 am

Lizlin

Really didn't! Def not a problem. Using iPad again, so not talking too much

2:14 am

sprite

it is a sneaky little grid, isn't it? No long series at all.

2:14 am

sprite

all good, Liz, not easy to chat with a pad.

2:15 am

puglet

its a hard grid I think

2:15 am

Lizlin

Struggling at 49 left but haven't listed yet. Must be a masochist!

2:15 am

sprite

hahaha too true! I know the feeling.

2:16 am

puglet

Hows your flu, Sprite?

2:16 am

Lizlin

Looked for nail polish at the market today - seemed a possible place as lots of diff makes ther. But no luck :(

2:16 am

sprite

yeah, not even halfway yet

2:18 am

sprite

aw Liz, thank you so much for trying!

2:19 am

sprite

pug, it is ok. Felt better yesterday and today is a bit better again.

2:19 am

Lizlin

I'll keep looking but reckon UK Is the best bet.

2:20 am

sprite

yes, I think so too, Liz. Wish I could hope the Channel for a day, lol. But that would be pushing it too far.

2:20 am

sprite

jeezzz what is with me and typing today? Hop, not hope

2:22 am

puglet

You going to try to make it to group monday then, Sprite

2:23 am

puglet

Morning Haz

2:23 am

Haz1558

Good morning, puglet and everyone.

2:23 am

sprite

hi Haz! 3 colours of Accessorize. No longer available in the netherlands and the webshop ships worldwide... but not these nail polishes for some reason.

2:24 am

sprite

yes pug, I will. Would hate to miss twice in a row.

2:24 am

Haz1558

I think there is a local Accessorize shop here, I could check for you. What are the exact colours?

2:25 am

sprite

oh that would be so wonderful! These are the colours:
Accessorize Illusion Aztec Nail Polish
Accessorize Nail Polish Illusion Pink Spice
ccessorize Nail Polish Illusion Molten Copper

2:25 am

sprite

Accessorize Illusion Aztec Nail Polish
Accessorize Nail Polish Illusion Pink Spice
Accessorize Nail Polish Illusion Molten Copper

2:25 am

sprite

sorry, copy and paste went a bit awry.

2:25 am

Haz1558

Okay, I'll take a note and will look for them - it might not be today, but as soon as I can I'll report back.

2:26 am

sprite

wow Haz, wonderful. No hurry at all. Thank you so much!

2:27 am

Haz1558

No problem. I love nail polish as well so I can understand the urge to have particular colours.

2:27 am

Lizlin

Had to go and feed the STARVING birds!!! 7 cockatoos outside desperate for seed! One on the windowsill, one on the screen! These are supposed to be wild birds!

2:27 am

sprite

these are wonderful, glad you understand :)

2:27 am

Lizlin

They're beautiful colours, Haz. I googled them!

2:28 am

Haz1558

Oh, I do. I take it you've tried e-bay?

2:28 am

sprite

lol Liz, they know your bleeding heart, and work it to the max.

2:28 am

sprite

yes, e-bay and several other sites like it. No joy.

2:28 am

Lizlin

They know we're a soft touch - that's for sure!

2:29 am

sprite

must be so awesome to have cockatoos on your windowsill.

2:29 am

sprite

have bookmarked your puzzles, Liz, and look forward to working them.

2:29 am

Lizlin

Hm! Mostly - not when it's our bedroom windowsill in the morning, if you get my meaning!

2:29 am

Haz1558

Okay, I'll see if I can come up trumps or rather the shop.

2:29 am

puglet

pretty soon they will sit on your shoulders--lol

2:30 am

Lizlin

I've still got 2 of yours to try, sprite - the hands and the dragon eggs. Also bookmarked! Any more planned?

2:30 am

sprite

but don't go out of your way for them, Haz... I do realise it is only nail polish, grin.

2:30 am

Lizlin

One mad corella (similar to a cockatoo) did - but that's not something I'd encourage - they are wild and although we feed them, we want them to remain wild!

2:30 am

sprite

yes, got some more in various states of readiness, Liz, didn't do much while fluish.

2:31 am

sprite

Liz, they are cock-a-roo-catoos!

2:31 am

Lizlin

Have you tried any of more of Crossy's evil ones? I did his snowy fence!

2:31 am

Haz1558

'Only' nail polish. I know...

2:31 am

Lizlin

LOL

2:31 am

sprite

I did crossy's forest, it was interesting, grin

2:32 am

Lizlin

I did the mountain stream one too - think that's the forest one - as I said, evil!

2:32 am

Lizlin

But fun!

2:32 am

puglet

I seen yesterday I think where Crossy has put on a sea turtle--havent seen it yet

2:32 am

sprite

yes, lots of fun. I like evil puzzles, provide the result is worth striving for.

2:33 am

Lizlin

Saw him mention that but also didn't see it there.

2:33 am

sprite

provided*

2:33 am

Lizlin

Just double checked - not there.

2:33 am

sprite

soon, probably.

2:33 am

Lizlin

More chatty now - back on computer.

2:34 am

sprite

wb Liz :)

2:34 am

sprite

Haz, haven't asked how you are today! So... how are you today? And how is Dempsey?

2:35 am

Haz1558

I am well, thank you, although disheartened by the sound of rain yet again. Dempsey is also well, he got trimmed yesterday so is looking sleek and smelling good!

2:36 am

sprite

yeah, no winter at all here either. Eternal autumn without the lovely colours.
Yay for Dempsey! So nice when you can bring him indoors without holding your nose.

2:36 am

lynxxx

Hello all. Nice to see you Haz - HNY

2:36 am

Haz1558

Would you believe he has to get his eyelashes trimmed? Women would kill to get those eyelashes.

2:37 am

Lizlin

2:37 am

sprite

hi lyn :) xxx

2:37 am

Haz1558

He's an indoor dog most of the time, but he loves his runs in a local park. His hair just soaks up and retains water to an amazing degree.

2:37 am

smithchick

Were do I find the puzzles that you are talking about? I need another obsession (about like I need a hole in my head).

2:37 am

Haz1558

Hello, lynxxx, nice to see you as well!

2:38 am

lynxxx

You just beat me with Crossys turkeys Liz. Just finished it - well not really because there is 6 pieces missing - weird

2:38 am

sprite

and not many things smell as a wet dog co4 does.

2:38 am

puglet

jigidi.com, smith. A few of us have puzzles there!

2:38 am

smithchick

Thank you. I

2:38 am

Haz1558

puglet, he's a blue roan cocker spaniel. Some pictures of him in my profile.

2:38 am

Lizlin

Those turkeys were hard too! Have you got any puzzles there, Lyn?

2:38 am

puglet

Hi smith

2:38 am

smithchick

I'll have to check it out!

2:38 am

sprite

lol smitchchick. www.jigidy.com has the puzzles. And you can find crosshair and jillibus under their own names, and mine under spritelet.

2:39 am

Lizlin

He's beautiful, Haz - looked just before.

2:39 am

Lizlin

And mine under Lizlin

2:39 am

lynxxx

It is about as addictive as Babble

2:39 am

puglet

Hes pretty Haz

2:39 am

lynxxx

None on there Liz

2:40 am

Haz1558

I know, he's very handsome, isn't he, Liz? He's a bit of a character and desperately attached to me. A velcro dog.

2:40 am

Lizlin

Best type of dog. I love dogs - but we don't have one.

2:40 am

sprite

lol @ velcro dog. Very clear image, that.

2:41 am

Lizlin

There's a difference of opinion here about whether dogs are outdoor or indoor animals!

2:41 am

Haz1558

He just about accepts that the bathroom is off limits but has that sort of disappointed look when the door closes on him.

2:41 am

sprite

depends on the dog and the job for it, I think

2:41 am

Lizlin

Aw! Poor Dempsey - bet he feels shut out!

2:42 am

Lizlin

It's an Aussie thing according to my hubby! Many dogs here are outdoor dogs but I disagree.

2:42 am

sprite

ohhh the spaniel look! Terra does it too. It says: "But I wil DIE if you don't let me! How can you DO that to me???"

2:42 am

Lizlin

Brother has 2 springer spaniels - love them. Father and daughter!

2:42 am

Haz1558

Liz,t when we first had a dog, my husband insisted that it would be outdoors most of the time and only be in the house for a limited period at night. Then the next dog managed to be outside and night and indoors during the day. This one just rules the roost and husband is the worst at indulging him.

2:43 am

lynxxx

Maybe an old fashioned Aussie thing! tell him that Liz

2:43 am

Lizlin

Used to have a choccy lab too but she died in December :(

2:43 am

Haz1558

The disappointed spaniel look also says 'But who's going to look after you in there? And who's going to look after me out here?'

2:43 am

sprite

aw Liz, so sorry! It really hurts to lose a pet and companion.

2:44 am

puglet

they are good at using their eyes to make us feel guilty--lol

2:44 am

puglet

Iam sorry too Liz for your lost

2:44 am

sprite

that too, indeed, Haz. True masters of The Look, spaniels.

2:45 am

Lizlin

I stayed with my bro to recuperate from surgery back in 2002 - the lab stayed on the stairs til I came out of the room and then walked down the stairs with me at my slow speed!

2:45 am

Lizlin

So cute!

2:45 am

sprite

awwww Liz that is so sweet. They are hearts on legs, aren't they.

2:46 am

lynxxx

choccy labs - I keep hearing a lot about them the last few months - they have the 'dumb gene' one owner was telling me (unlike the OK golden lab he also had)

2:46 am

Lizlin

I wouldn't describe her as dumb - not at all!

2:46 am

Haz1558

I think they have the reputation of being livelier than the blacks or goldens.

2:47 am

puglet

I seen on tv that these people had a dog afraid of climbing the stairs and it would climb them backwards---so big dog, looked like a greyhound type

2:47 am

Haz1558

And they all love their food! (Labs, I mean)

2:47 am

lynxxx

I can't believe thay are dumb either as my lovely vet used to breed them and he is tres smart

2:47 am

Lizlin

We grew up with a dog - fine on stairs unless they were slats. He hated those!

2:47 am

Lizlin

Don't most dogs love food????

2:48 am

Lizlin

That must've looked very weird, pugs.

2:48 am

puglet

Mine loves it too much--lol

2:48 am

sprite

some are picky, Liz. Not Terra though. Only the really healthy dryfood the vet recommended, that he won't eat. But everything else is ok.

2:48 am

puglet

it did Liz

2:48 am

Haz1558

Beagles also have the reputation of being hoovers on legs. Some breeds just go crazy for food and have to be well controlled others not so much.

2:49 am

Lizlin

Well, I don't think I'd like totally dry food either!!!

2:49 am

lynxxx

Greyhounds don't appear to be fussed about food

2:49 am

sprite

Terra gets meat now and is happy and healthy as can be.

2:50 am

sprite

Terra is slim, but that is because of our portioning him. Or he'd be big as a house. The vet is always very happy with him when she sees him. Always exclaims how slim he is.

2:51 am

Lizlin

Being fit and healthy is the most important thing.

2:51 am

sprite

Haz, love your icon :)

2:52 am

Haz1558

Why, thank you.

2:52 am

Lizlin

Yes - lol!

2:55 am

sprite

did we lose our pug?

2:55 am

puglet

Nope

2:55 am

Lizlin

Getting coffee?

2:55 am

sprite

good! :)

2:56 am

Lizlin

Have one dr 8 - can't find the other :(

2:56 am

sprite

that is one more than I have

2:56 am

Lizlin

Stupid word.

2:57 am

puglet

Iam starring at this grid and wondering well the heck are all them words--lol

2:57 am

sprite

lol pug, indeed!

2:57 am

puglet

where not well

2:58 am

Lizlin

Know what you mean!

2:58 am

puglet

I am down to 78, so I have passed halfway

2:58 am

Lizlin

WTG

2:59 am

sprite

good job

3:00 am

puglet

The wind keeps knocking at the door and I keep wanting to do see whos there--lol

3:00 am

Lizlin

Well I hope you wouldn't be answering the door in the middle of the night even if it wasn't the wind!

3:00 am

puglet

man I cant type this morning either

3:01 am

puglet

go not do

3:01 am

sprite

ah, found them, thank you. One 8 is a plural, the other ends in being mindnumbing.

3:01 am

puglet

its 4am here

3:01 am

Lizlin

Thanks sprite - even stupider word!

3:02 am

sprite

I am with Liz, pug. Don't let them in at such an ungodly hour.

3:02 am

sprite

I agree!

3:03 am

Haz1558

But it could be George Clooney, lost and needing shelter for the night.

3:03 am

sprite

no, it couldn't, Haz. He'd be knocking on your door first.

3:03 am

Lizlin

Well then I'd open the door - but I was going to say he'd be over here!

3:04 am

Haz1558

He hates to leave my understairs cupboard, but sometimes work calls him elsewhere.

3:04 am

puglet

I know its nothing because none of the dogs are going off

3:04 am

Lizlin

So unreasonable of work - mind you, I hope your under-stairs cupboard is comfy!

3:05 am

sprite

Mr. Clooney loves dogs... I still have a picture of him with Haz's dog before Dempsey.

3:05 am

puglet

you all can have him! He's not really my type

3:05 am

Haz1558

Very comfy. It's his refuge when the film star life gets too much.

3:06 am

puglet

wow, thats something Sprite

3:06 am

Lizlin

Looking forward to seeing The Monuments Men - have seen a trailer.

3:07 am

Lizlin

He directed and stars in it.

3:09 am

Lizlin

lol!

3:09 am

puglet

okay

3:09 am

puglet

do I need to go look now

3:09 am

Haz1558

Absolutely.

3:10 am

puglet

okay,brb

3:13 am

Lizlin

Time for dinner. BBL for the last 35. Bye and hugs to all (including Pugs, when she comes back).

3:13 am

Haz1558

Enjoy your meal, Liz.

3:13 am

sprite

enjoy your dinner, Liz. Will tell pug!

3:18 am

puglet

nice pictures

3:18 am

sprite

thanks pug :)

3:19 am

sprite

that was back in the days when we still had a lot of fun with our icons

3:19 am

puglet

looks very clever

3:20 am

sprite

nah, just a bit of cut, edit and paste. But fun.

3:20 am

Haz1558

I wish (I really wish!) I had taken that photo but we owe a lot to sprite's ingenuity.

3:22 am

Haz1558

Anyway, I must head off and get the day kicked into shape. My favourite activity awaits. Supermarket shopping... Enjoy babbling!

3:22 am

sprite

the deaded shopping, Haz. Good luck with that. Great to have seen you!

3:22 am

puglet

bye Haz and enjoy!

3:22 am

Haz1558

Bye, puglet and sprite and everyone. See you again.

3:23 am

puglet

be thankful you can at least get out to do it

3:23 am

sprite

lol yes pug, you have to time your shopping in between the snow and ice!

3:24 am

puglet

Iam worried about our friend--two days in a row!

3:25 am

sprite

give her time, pug. She's been through hell and back. Things are bound to be bumpy for a while.

3:27 am

puglet

she probalby wouldnt had said a thing if I hadent called her out on it

3:27 am

sprite

oh btw, pug, Liz said good bye and *hugs* to you, when she went for dinner.

3:27 am

puglet

alright Sprite

3:28 am

puglet

you taking the day to rest up from yesterday

3:28 am

sprite

fireflies. With a bit of help from Lickety today. Tough little grid. Can I help you before I go, pug?

3:29 am

puglet

nah, Iam not staying--I havent been to bed yet

3:29 am

sprite

yeah, bit of laundry, bit of cleaning, bit of parenting, that is it for today, I think. Maybe walk Terra one time.

3:29 am

puglet

oh and congrats too

3:30 am

sprite

ok sweetie, go hit the hay. *hugs* and I will write an email to rose. Have a peaceful night and a blessed day.

3:30 am

hello joso

3:41 am

rubyfoo

I "walked in| just as the others left

3:42 am

looks like it's just you and me kid, as bogie would say

3:43 am

rubyfoo

....with so many gin joints in the world.....

3:43 am

joso

:)

3:43 am

joso

so how is life in frogville

3:44 am

rubyfoo

cold but no precipitation and sunny in the afternoons

3:44 am

rubyfoo

we are very lucky

3:45 am

joso

seems so, I don't mind the snow like most of th others though

3:46 am

rubyfoo

it was unseasonably warm here, so while the mountains got snow, we had rain and very muddy dogs. Snow would have been better

3:46 am

joso

is your true love mostly managable these days

3:46 am

rubyfoo

at least the dogs would have gotten clean

3:47 am

rubyfoo

he is in sharp decline mentally, but is much nicer. It's very sad

3:47 am

joso

do your dogs enjoy the snow

3:48 am

rubyfoo

I'm not sure as neither one has seen a real snow yet. They have such dense coats that nothing seems to bother them. The baby dog looks like she's wearing another dog on her back

3:50 am

joso

it's a sad thing, loss of mental ability is my greatest fear, would rather be a quadrapaleagic

3:51 am

rubyfoo

he was the smartest man I ever knew

3:52 am

joso

how aware of his problems is he?

3:53 am

rubyfoo

aware enough to be depressed about it, but he doesn't realize how bad it is

3:53 am

joso

a small blessing I suppose

3:54 am

rubyfoo

(very small)

4:00 am

joso

you have my sympathies ruby, wish I could help somehow, but then life is not always fair

4:01 am

rubyfoo

it could be much worse. At least he's healthy, so there's no physical care needed yet and I'm fine

4:01 am

rubyfoo

and I'm living in a beautiful place of my own choosing.

4:02 am

rubyfoo

Overall, I'd say |I'm fortunate!

4:07 am

rubyfoo

must go. Stay warm, joso

4:07 am

joso

yes, I've looked up pic of your town and area, it does look like a paradice

9:07 am

Scrabbler

I introduced my local sister to snowshoeing a few weeks ago and she liked it too.

9:07 am

Scrabbler

Hego, I would have trained you years ago to be active in nature.

9:08 am

hego

I would have liked that years ago.

9:26 am

welki

*picks up hego with the ATV* hi everyone

9:26 am

Judi

I tried cross country skiing once or twice. Only reaffirmed my hatred of winter.

9:27 am

Scrabbler

Kayaking, hiking--yes, but would you mountain bike through the woods?

9:27 am

hego

Bill might snowshoe. He loves outdoors.

9:27 am

Scrabbler

Hi welki. Icefishing much?

9:27 am

hego

Hi Welki!

9:27 am

hego

No biking

9:27 am

Judi

Hi, Welki!

9:27 am

hego

Nude swimming however, not bad.

9:27 am

welki

hey scrabs - nope, we were too busy battling the creeping crud

9:28 am

hego

Are you feeling better?

9:28 am

Scrabbler

That is required, Hego, as part of nature activities!

9:28 am

Scrabbler

Better now?

9:28 am

welki

getting there, thanks hego

9:28 am

hego

Goody!!

9:28 am

welki

and scrabs :)

9:29 am

welki

no fear of bears if i'm nude swimming - they will run in terror

9:29 am

72 Temple Owl

wow that was a long illness, was it flu?

9:29 am

Scrabbler

I scare off everyone when I skinnydip.

9:30 am

Judi

Bear vs ba4.

9:30 am

welki

three weeks so far, owl - who knows what it was. could be i was sick twice *lol*

9:30 am

72 Temple Owl

that's awful.

9:30 am

welki

uhm scrabs? i recall a pic of Scrabbler, the Wood Nymph - demurely covered with a tiny towel *lol*

9:30 am

Scrabbler

Some respiratory viruses last 3 wks and then there can be a lingering cough beyond that.

9:31 am

72 Temple Owl

hahahaha

9:31 am

Judi

Uhg. Poor Welki. What a miserable experience.

9:31 am

welki

yep, that's the description of what we have - husb ended up with pneumonia, scheduled for another chest xray next week - hopefully, no bronchoscopy needed

9:31 am

Scrabbler

The towel appeared tiny in front of my body. An illusion.

9:31 am

hego

I saw that pic also, Welki and she looked good!

9:32 am

72 Temple Owl

your eploits make me want to get out there and go ski

9:32 am

rururocks

Scraps. Hurst has started chatting again occasionally. .someone scared her .She felt she was being stalked here

9:32 am

welki

au contraire - it was a tiny towel, you vixen

9:32 am

Scrabbler

We made an entire calendar of me in nature au naturel--for our friends. It is hilarious. Each month has a theme.

9:32 am

rururocks

Wood nymphs sound fun

9:32 am

Judi

LOL! Can one be both a nymph and a vixen??

9:33 am

hego

I want one!!!

9:33 am

welki

i want to see the winter shots *LOL*

9:33 am

72 Temple Owl

you are a rascal

9:33 am

Scrabbler

Yes, I know, Ruru. I miss Hurshy.

9:33 am

welki

*retracts vixen and goes 100% with wood nymph*

9:34 am

72 Temple Owl

we must drag scrabs down here for a nj meetup. its been too long.

9:34 am

Scrabbler

Naked cross-country skiing, naked snowshoeing, kayaking, etc. We started a long time ago and worked hard.

9:34 am

rururocks

Guessing you don't give that one out at the office scrabs...

9:34 am

Judi

*covers eyes* On that note, I will go to breakfast... fully clothed. *POOF*

9:34 am

welki

daughter just started new job, scrabs. she's a nurse - now in PICU

9:34 am

hego

Come to the ocean Scrabs!!

9:35 am

welki

(so owl, when she gets her schedule straight, i'll let you know when i'll be back east - hego, too)

9:35 am

Scrabbler

Well, I am cleverly concealed in each photo. e.g. holing 2 small pumpkins in front of me for October.

9:35 am

hego

Welki, tha's great. Where?

9:35 am

72 Temple Owl

well are you watchng those dance videos?

9:35 am

welki

robert woods

9:35 am

hego

does she work?

9:35 am

hego

Good place.

9:35 am

welki

yep, can't imagine my feet accomodating me

9:36 am

welki

does she work? yes, right now she's in the step down unit

9:36 am

72 Temple Owl

then you must meet my new friend. he teaches dance

9:36 am

welki

she was a paramedic operating out of same hosp (and before that, volunteer emt - same place)

9:36 am

Scrabbler

welki--very meaningful work, but it will be emotionally challenging. She must be prepared for dying and death. I still remember the kids that died during residency.

9:36 am

PMS

Help needed for sc5,12 please

9:37 am

welki

her take, scrabs, is that there's more joy than sorrow - but i worry about her, too

9:37 am

Scrabbler

I am looking, PMS

9:37 am

welki

it's a fish, pms

9:37 am

hego

I do too Scrabs.

9:37 am

welki

no no it's not a fish- that's sc 5/14

9:38 am

welki

the only sc 5/12 i have are remnants of boo-boos

9:38 am

rururocks

Fish used for bait isn't it?

9:38 am

72 Temple Owl

no it is cod

9:38 am

hego

ty for the fish

9:38 am

welki

no, sc 5/14 is a delicious white fish

9:38 am

72 Temple Owl

young cod. delicious

9:38 am

Scrabbler

TY, welki

9:39 am

rururocks

Sc.5 is a plural pms...

9:39 am

hego

It'snot an actual fish, just a name used in Boston ar** for cod type fish.

9:39 am

Scrabbler

Hego, keeping a journal can help, and she must talk with co-workers and the docs--debriefing after a death is essential. And stay in contact with parents afterward--they appreciate it so much.

9:40 am

72 Temple Owl

i think it refers to young haddock as well. i worked in a seafood restaurant where it was on the menu

9:40 am

welki

good ideas, scrab - will relay them to her. she's impressed with what she's seen of the unit so far - very supportive

9:40 am

PMS

Thanks ruru/ I was not seeing the other s

9:41 am

hego

Many of us attended funerals of our patients to lend support.

9:41 am

72 Temple Owl

that is wonderfull. my fathers doctors wither attended or sent a personal note to us. meant a lot

9:41 am

welki

as paramedics, she and her husband have had their share of bad calls involving children - always hard. when i was an emt (when dinosaurs roamed the earth), all we had were each other to lean on

9:41 am

Scrabbler

She must define her role as providing the best care possible to kids and parents even when the outcome is death. Kindness, attention--parents need that when their kid is in a PICU.

9:42 am

welki

there was no 'de-briefing,' just roadside barfing and then dunkin' donuts

9:42 am

Scrabbler

I have attended visitations and funerals. I still call one set of parents every Jan 7. Michael died 1/7/91 at age 4.

9:42 am

welki

the mantra in the unit, scrab is - if you're a parent of a critically ill child, you get what you want, you get what you need

9:43 am

Scrabbler

Yes, it is hell to have a critically ill child.

9:44 am

rururocks

I would guess that is about the worst too.

9:44 am

hego

the very worst.

9:44 am

welki

the only kid of mine who's been very, very ill is the same one - she had ITP. very scary

9:44 am

Scrabbler

I recall Feb 1985, during my one month in the PICU, we had 8 deaths. It was brutal on everyone.

9:45 am

Scrabbler

But that diagnosis is better than leukemia or aplastic anemia. She was lucky.

9:46 am

welki

it ended up very well - she was an emt at the time - one of the medics she worked with went to visit her at the hospital to see how she was getting along - he's now my son in law :)

9:46 am

Scrabbler

For several ye5 after residency I could not return to the NICU or PICU (to see patients from our practice) because I recalled kids that died in specific beds.

9:46 am

Scrabbler

Nice story, welki!

9:46 am

welki

my daughter is very visual and literal, too - i worry, scrabs

9:47 am

welki

she, like you, has an eidetic memory - so nothing ever goes away

9:47 am

Scrabbler

I have videotapes in my head. welki, she can always contact me.

9:48 am

welki

you're the best

9:49 am

Scrabbler

People need support and validation after seeing horrors. Medical folks get PTSD too.

9:50 am

Scrabbler

I just found ca5/16--the chocolate substitute

9:50 am

72 Temple Owl

ptui.

9:51 am

hego

ty scrabs

9:51 am

welki

my guess is that there'll be many days/nights that she goes home, goes directly upstairs and climbs into bed with her children to hang onto them as anchors

9:51 am

hego

and ptui

9:51 am

72 Temple Owl

:0 are we reaching consensus here?

9:51 am

Scrabbler

Yes, with great gratitude.

9:51 am

welki

(and then to her husband :)

9:52 am

Scrabbler

That the last 1/3 will be tough, Owl?

9:52 am

welki

i have 50 left and have to get moving - have a great day, everyone

9:52 am

72 Temple Owl

no, about the chocolate substitute.

9:52 am

72 Temple Owl

bye, welk, feel better soon.

9:52 am

Scrabbler

Bye, welki!

9:52 am

welki

oh - one more thing. i am a member of the concensus - ptui

9:53 am

Scrabbler

Owl, my first choice is always dark chocolate.

9:53 am

72 Temple Owl

:)

9:53 am

hego

I go on record as saying there is no chocolate substitute!!!!

9:53 am

welki

consensus

9:53 am

72 Temple Owl

here, here!

9:53 am

Scrabbler

I second that!

9:54 am

hego

:D

9:55 am

72 Temple Owl

i have a medical ?

9:55 am

Scrabbler

Shoot!

9:56 am

72 Temple Owl

9:57 am

72 Temple Owl

upon echo exam

9:57 am

PAV3

Hello all! Exciting news: traveling to SeaTac late April. What to do?

9:57 am

Scrabbler

Possibly pulmonary hypertension, or pulmonic valve issue--something that puts pressure on the R ventricle.

9:57 am

hego

Pav, have fun!!!

9:57 am

Scrabbler

What is SeaTac, PAV?

9:57 am

72 Temple Owl

sounds serious. possible copd?

9:58 am

hego

seattle-Tacoma

9:58 am

Scrabbler

Ah, I get it

9:58 am

Scrabbler

Could be lung disease, Owl.

9:58 am

PAV3

Seattle Tacoma Washington...possibly Vancouver if i get passport

9:58 am

o-o

my first thought was SeaTac was akin to sky hook

wvteach

around 25 here and then predicted to be a low of 3 tonight

12:11 pm

penquis

back to teens for a high on Tuesday ... can't wait for winter to be done....

12:12 pm

jaxx7

It would just be nice if it stopped raining here in UK

12:15 pm

bichon

At least you don't have massive amounts of snow and sub-zero temps

12:16 pm

penquis

got 36 left....going to do some work on my newsletter now...bbl....

12:17 pm

jaxx7

No. Just whole counties under water and people unable to get out of their homes. Snow would be a welcome change. Everywhere is so soggy.

12:31 pm

wvteach

high on Tuesday is supposed to be 6 and below zero for the lows - it will be our coldest

12:32 pm

bichon

Sounds like here. How high up are you teach?

12:32 pm

wvteach

snow hasn't been the biggest problem - it has been these bitter cold temperatures. Usually the grandkids go sled riding on the hill nearby but nobody goes out in these cold temperatures

12:33 pm

wvteach

we are not in the mountsains at all - think the elevation here is around 850 - mountsain ridges start just to our east - more snow and colder there

12:33 pm

wvteach

we are actually down in a river valley here

12:34 pm

bichon

We're not too high either. But I wouldn't go out with grandkids to sled

12:35 pm

wvteach

schools have been closed for too many days - more for the cold but also snow

12:35 pm

bichon

We never close for the cold, just snow and ice. Besides the holiday on Monday, by g'daughter only went to school twice

12:38 pm

harpjane

we only close if a furnace quits or the roads are impassable

12:39 pm

bichon

At least they got in a half day on Tues, before the snow, but they had to close all day Wed.

2:00 pm

Rows

lucky if you can do laundry in the warmth of your home or indoors, crossy... and if you can just toss it in a dryer

2:00 pm

crosshair

well,cannot do it outside. the sheets would freeze solid

2:00 pm

Rows

i wanted to do laundry today, but it's cold and wet outside, which makes it much less pleasant to be out there doing it, not to mention there's limited space inside to hang clothing, and it won't dry if i hang it outside

2:01 pm

hego

sheetcicles

2:01 pm

Rows

haha i suppose that's true, crossy

2:01 pm

Rows

still, count your laundry blessings :)

2:02 pm

my blessings are I am not using a wash tub, scrub board and clothesline;)

2:02 pm

crosshair

yaaa for electricity!

2:03 pm

Yippee!!

2:04 pm

though I would love one of those old style wringer washers from the 50,s and 60,s

2:05 pm

scrubbing them on a concrete washboard...

2:05 pm

2:05 pm

2:05 pm

crosshair

sunlight

2:06 pm

Rows

well i use laundry detergent that is in solid form

2:06 pm

Rows

and i scrub it on the washboard that you see in the photo

2:06 pm

it works fine

2:06 pm

crosshair

ok. you work for your laundry for sure.

2:06 pm

hego

for sure

2:06 pm

Rows

haha yep... though it's not terrible

2:07 pm

a old wringer washer would be a godsend for you

2:07 pm

Rows

yeah perhaps

2:08 pm

crosshair

sure beast pounding them on cosdems rock by the river:))

2:11 pm

crosshair

beats

2:13 pm

crosshair

taking a good look at your pila , rows. here the cost of the lumber to make the form and the rebar to strengthen it and the concrete and the man hours to do it would most likely cost us more than spending the $350 dollars to go to the store and buy the washing machine lol

2:14 pm

crosshair

it is funny what costs more in one country vs another

also snow tomorrow, followed by the crashing temperatures - won't be much fun for a few days

9:05 pm

ugh. We are dry, and cold, but it's nice because in the afternoon today (and again tomorrow) we are able to get out and work in the garden a bit and NOT sink into the soil a foot!

9:06 pm

stidmama

I think we will have rain again by the end of the week, though.

9:06 pm

JenMO16

yes m'am, we are in the 50s tomorrow and the high on Monday in the single digits!

monday and tuesday our highs are supposed to be below zero

9:09 pm

stidmama

a second job, Jen?? I wish you luck in finding something that brings you joy as well as income.

9:09 pm

JenMO16

thanks, trying to find some part time work to supplement the full time job, just not making it

9:09 pm

9:11 pm

stidmama

Nice!

9:11 pm

uusue2

let's keep in touch! Do you have a tentative move-in date yet, or is it too soon to tell?

9:11 pm

stidmama

We have plans for sometime in July, but hope it will work out. If you get here, we'll set up a west-coast babble meet again!

9:11 pm
