flosey

hi nan

12:16 am

jillibus

dee, since March I've had a whole lot of unexpected expenses and things! The heavy snowfall broke my giant old oak, so I had to have that aken care of -- I wanted to light my gas fireplace during a power outage -- no gas, so had to get the propane tank filled. Then I found I had carpenter ants and had to get the pest control people in and spend 6 hours away from the house, so I had my car serviced off island. Had a routine doctor'sa ppointment the next day, and stupidly backed out of the garage and hit the gardener's truck , so big repairs needed. Came home from that to find my hot water tank had leaked so I had to get a new one. Oh yes, and then there was home inusrance to renew and community sewer fees to pay -- I've probably left something out, but enough, awreddy!

12:16 am

VolleymomDee

I saw your post on FB. I was hoping you had gotten some help with your leak.

12:17 am

jillibus

Oh yes, my wonderful neighbours helped out a lot. I really had a meltdown but they were soothing.

12:18 am

VolleymomDee

Really glad for that. Sure sounded like a plateful of challenges.

12:21 am

jillibus

Ok, groan over!

12:22 am

cybernan

hi there rose

1:15 am

grannyrose

finally, my first congrats caught up with my second post.

1:15 am

flosey

lol

1:15 am

grannyrose

hey flosey

1:15 am

VolleymomDee

ty rose... red boxes here for a minute. (((rose))) (((flosey)))

1:16 am

flosey

I had a couple Dee, but not bothersome

1:16 am

grannyrose

flosey, i posted a congrats and nothing happened, like it got lost in cyberspace. so i typed it again, and then both came through at the same time...weird

1:17 am

flosey

sometimes, strange things happen in here

1:17 am

grannyrose

yeah, the bermuda triangle has moved to our house.

1:18 am

flosey

oh dear!

1:18 am

grannyrose

i think don is losing it...he has lost several keys, singly, for different cupboards etc. the other day he lost the garage keys.

1:19 am

grannyrose

and he has the nerve to look at my accusingly...lol...then we found the keys. he had locked them in the garage..*sigh*

1:20 am

flosey

lol, safely locked out!

1:20 am

grannyrose

*shaking head, and grinning ruefully* yes.

1:20 am

saanichcat

actually, and not to make light of it, the time to worry is not where you lose you keys --- it's when you forget what they'ew for

1:21 am

grannyrose

lolol, saani....been there, done that. we have a box of keys, and no id4 what they are for.

1:22 am

saanichcat

what I ment was, what a key does, what it is!

1:22 am

flosey

we have several in the drawer where all keys are kept - many could have been replaced but not destroyed! a bad mistake

1:23 am

grannyrose

oh....of course you did, dear...*giggling furiously* i can be so slow, sometimes it drives don crazy.

1:23 am

saanichcat

my Mum, a chain smoker, suddenly out of the blue, forgot what a cigarette was! (she has AL)

1:24 am

flosey

ah, sorry about that, but cigs a good thing to forget

1:25 am

grannyrose

good grief...well at least there wont be any danger of fire with her. but not to minimise her condition...my mum didn't know me at all just before she died. it cut deep.

1:25 am

saanichcat

agreeeed. As soon as she forgot, out went anything to do with smoking. We were concerned about fire.

1:25 am

flosey

that would hurt, rose

1:26 am

saanichcat

My Mum actually died in my arms a few years back and she didn't know who I was, only that she liked me.

1:26 am

grannyrose

flosey, i realise now that she was hypoxic. her poor old heart just wasn't working hardly at all. her brain wasn't getting enough oxygen, even on oxygen therapy.

1:28 am

grannyrose

saani, believe it or not, you were fortunate. my poor mum died with only strangers around her. she was in hospital, having fallen and broken her arm.

1:28 am

saanichcat

oh I am so sorry rose.

1:29 am

grannyrose

i never got to say good-bye.

1:29 am

flosey

such a tough way to go - and for loved ones to see

1:31 am

grannyrose

but thankfully i had visited her the day before, and i was getting ready to visit her again, when the hospital called.

1:31 am

dizgrannie

Hi all!! FWs Bye all!! (stupid red boxes)

1:32 am

grannyrose

WTG DIZ!!!! one day i'm gonna nail you to the chog....lol

1:32 am

saanichcat

congrats and farewell!

1:41 am

flosey

I have 19 to go but think I'll leave them for tomorrow - goodnight all

1:41 am

grannyrose

goodnight, flosey. i hope you have a lovely sleep.

2:45 am

puglet

Hey OO! good to see you

2:46 am

o-o

Quiet here.

2:46 am

puglet

yeah I know-lol

2:47 am

puglet

you just now coming on or have you already done this grid

2:48 am

o-o

I finished awhile ago ... been surfing

2:49 am

puglet

oh. hope you dont fall off the board-lol

2:49 am

o-o

more concerned about bored than board

2:50 am

puglet

did you find anything worthwhile

2:50 am

sprite

good morning all :)

2:50 am

puglet

I wouldnt think you would ever be like that

2:51 am

puglet

good morning Sprite

2:51 am

grannyrose

*uncrossing eyes* have just started a 360 piece jigsaw. cooee and g'day from me

2:51 am

sprite

*hugs pugs* How are you today, my friend? Did you get some sleep?

2:51 am

puglet

so happy for your good news! You got to be proud of that

2:52 am

puglet

yes I did, too much I think-lol

2:52 am

sprite

hello o-o, good to see you :) I hope you are ok.

2:52 am

sprite

lol hi rose *hugs* They are so much fun.

2:52 am

grannyrose

pugs, although your news was not the best, at last something is happening for you. sprite?? WAY TO GO, GIRL!! what wonderful news.

2:53 am

sprite

thank you, pugs! Yes I was a bit proud indeed, and so very happy with it. Shows that I did really good with eating this last half year.

2:53 am

puglet

Howdy Rose --hugs to all three of you guys

2:53 am

sprite

thanks rose :)

2:53 am

sprite

hehehe no such thing, pugs. You really needed a good sleep to start recuperating (sp?) from it all.

2:53 am

grannyrose

now if we can just get pugs and o-o both sorted out, life would be grand.

2:54 am

puglet

it wiped me out yesterday---besides going to the doc I had to go get xrays done at the hospital on the hernia

2:54 am

sprite

alas, some issues are a lot harder to resolve than mine. But yes, my wishes go with yours, rose.

2:55 am

sprite

pugs, I really understand that it is exhausting to go through the medical mill. But I am so happy you finally get the help you need.

2:55 am

grannyrose

oh, and the fella from workcover came...he just couldn't believe what the last 3 years have been like for don and me.

2:55 am

sprite

really? What did he say, rose???

2:57 am

grannyrose

lol. he said when he hears stories like don's and mine, he can't believe we still get up in the morning.

2:57 am

puglet

so is he for you

2:57 am

sprite

aw and he is so right about that. So what was his verdict?

2:58 am

grannyrose

yes, pugs. and he said the company have a snowball's chance in hell, getting the builders to pay for my workcover claims.

2:58 am

puglet

is it normal for workcover to pay you a visit

2:58 am

sprite

lol did you tell him you have to get up because we are here and we need you? :)

2:58 am

gapeach

May I please have a clue for se6-27? Thanks

2:58 am

gapeach

May I please have a clue for se6-27? Thanks

2:59 am

puglet

I cant see how they could be held in fault either

2:59 am

grannyrose

no, pugs. it is out of the ordinary.

2:59 am

sprite

yay yay yay, he got it nailed on the head.

2:59 am

puglet

Hi Peach

2:59 am

sprite

hi peach :) Sorry, nothing over 5 here yet, lol.

2:59 am

grannyrose

peach, ocean + not a cat

2:59 am

sprite

ok, thanks rose, lol.

2:59 am

sprite

I thought those were called seals.

3:00 am

sprite

or seels... jeezzz what's with me this morning.

3:00 am

gapeach

Thanks so much, rose.

3:00 am

grannyrose

pugs, it wasn't the builders fault. it was the environmental service, employed by the hospital who were at fault.

3:00 am

puglet

thks Rose, what a weird word

3:01 am

grannyrose

pugs, it is an old name for a sailor

3:01 am

puglet

who ever wet the floor and then not mark it wet are the ones at fault

3:01 am

sprite

I really think they are trying to cover their own butts, rose, which means they know they are so screwed when you decide to sue them.

3:01 am

puglet

thanks for the info

3:02 am

puglet

seems like they are going to spend more money trying to tag someone else with the screw up

3:02 am

grannyrose

*nodding head* you are so right. i am going to ring my union tomorrow, and get the name of the firm they use. as a member, i free access to a lawyer through them.

3:03 am

puglet

thats a good ideal Rose

3:03 am

grannyrose

lol, pugs, exactly...this guy wouldn't come cheaply, i can tell you.

3:03 am

sprite

very good, rose. I think if you are up to the hassle, it would be good to sue them. They were clearly in the wrong, but more importantly, they still try to blame you and force you to go back to work before you can... give them something to think about.

3:04 am

puglet

is all this getting to you Rose

3:04 am

sprite

I hope you are still with us, o-o, even though quietly. Just wanted to say that you are in my thoughts and prayers a lot these days.

3:04 am

grannyrose

sprite, i have been up front and quite blunt with them. i have told them i will give it a b****y good try, but if i can't do it, i can't do it.

3:05 am

sprite

good for you, rose! And please please please don't go to extremes. If you ask me, you should only do about 1/4 of what you think is normal!

3:06 am

puglet

sounds like Rose they are going to drag this out as long as they can

3:06 am

grannyrose

a few months ago it would have...but now i've got the gloves on, and i'm coming out of the corner, swinging.

3:07 am

sprite

well the nice thing is that the union can hold on for very long as well. Longer than you could privately handle.

3:07 am

puglet

Iam more worried about the toll on you Rose---you dont need more drama while you are trying to heal yourself

3:07 am

grannyrose

oh, and i drove the car today for the first time. went really well too. also finished the supermarket shopping. also did the easter shopping for the kids. and hydro, and physio, and, and...nope nothing else.

3:08 am

sprite

true, that, pugs. That is why I say, if you can handle the hassle.

3:08 am

sprite

omg rose... that is quite the program. And how are you feeling, how is the pain?

3:08 am

puglet

good for you Rose! now we will see how it effected you tomorrow

3:09 am

grannyrose

i'm just a little stiff, is all. i think i will sleep tonight.

3:10 am

sprite

sounds good. If your FM doesn't play up tomorrow, you are really on your way to mend. How is the pain medication going?

3:10 am

puglet

maybe this will be our year of healing for us all--including OO too--:)

3:11 am

grannyrose

still only one slow release tablet every 36hours. needed one endone today, as i did hydro on monday as well. no hydro now until next wednesday.

3:11 am

sprite

amen to that, pug. From your mouth to the Big Guy's ear.

3:11 am

sprite

wow rose, you are doing so well!

3:12 am

grannyrose

did i ever tell you i was obstinate, stubborn, tenacious???

3:12 am

puglet

yes you are Rose and I hate for all that with the workcover to screw all that up for you right now

3:12 am

sprite

not in so many words, but I knew nevertheless

3:13 am

puglet

well those are words I wouldnt say out loud about you-lol

3:14 am

sprite

usually we abbreviate it and just say 'rose'

3:14 am

puglet

good one Sprite

3:14 am

grannyrose

roflol, awww spritey....* bats eyelashes* moi?

3:14 am

sprite

*giggles* Toi, ma fille, toi.

3:15 am

puglet

we need a r word--lol

3:15 am

sprite

and we wouldn't want you any other way, rose. Just, please, be careful with yourself.

3:16 am

puglet

so sprite where do you go from here on

3:16 am

grannyrose

sprite, pugs, i am taking care. i'm now listening to my body.

3:17 am

puglet

just now? lol

3:17 am

sprite

that is all we ask :) Am glad, rose. You are precious.

3:20 am

puglet

I so dont want to get the op on the hernia and Iam trying to figure a way out of it--I had that once and it was no picnic

3:20 am

sprite

I think I will do the dishes, to prevent issues tonight. A bit of laundry. And a lot of resting. And you?

3:21 am

sprite

I know, pugs, it sucks. But if it is necessary, it is necessary. You can't go on like this.

3:21 am

puglet

I got to make out a schedule for myself on eating and exercise--getting things in order so to say

3:22 am

sprite

that is awesome! and be easy on yourself when you do it, ok? An easy, relaxed schedule.

3:22 am

grannyrose

PUGS!!!! you have that surgery, young lady. besides, the drugs nowadays are vastly improved, and nurses and doctors understand a lot more about pain control.

3:23 am

puglet

I know I do but I just HATE the thought and all theses meds :(

3:23 am

gapeach

May I please have a clue for ga5-14 Thanks

3:24 am

sprite

that's ok, pugs, as long as you do it anyway. We will back you up every step of the way.

3:24 am

grannyrose

the pain meds will be short term only. just think, once the hernia is repaired, it won't hurt you again. and the post-op pain is getting better pain. it will go away.

3:24 am

grannyrose

peach, used in cooking, bouquet ga5

3:26 am

sprite

thanks rose :)

3:26 am

gapeach

Thanks much, Rose.

3:26 am

grannyrose

np's

3:28 am

puglet

and Sprite I did tell the doc all you told me to tell her and she said one thing at a time and in a few months we are going to work on the smoking too

3:29 am

puglet

and I did get a woman doc, which Iam pleased with too

3:29 am

sprite

wow pugs! Soooo good. Am so proud of you that you got the courage to tell her everything. *hugs* Yes, a woman doc is very good for you. Necessary, even.

3:30 am

grannyrose

yay, pugs. that is splendid.

3:32 am

puglet

she wanted to put me on anti-depression meds but I asked if the sugar could cause it and she said yes so I told her I will wait and see if I can do it myself by getting that down first

3:33 am

puglet

and the stress too can cause the sugar to be as it is so I got alot to work on it seems

3:33 am

grannyrose

absolutely, pugs. with the diabetes under control, the hernia repaired, and that other problem dealt with, you will be a new woman.

3:33 am

sprite

hm ok, I can see your point. But don't wait too long. Antideps can make a big difference if you get the ones that are good for you.

3:33 am

sprite

God yes. My sugar spikes like crazy as soon as I get stressed. It is worse than eating sugar candy, I sw5.

3:37 am

puglet

Rose, do you think you are going to be able to make it to your easter service

3:38 am

puglet

sprite you got all this free time now..whatever will you do with all of it-lol

3:38 am

sprite

squirrel :D

3:38 am

grannyrose

i am thinking that while you, pugs, are adapting to the new diabetes meds, you don't need the antideps. because they too can cause dizziness etc. but, and i do mean but, if you do need them, then take them.

3:39 am

sprite

I don't know yet, pugs. I'd like to do something worthwhile again, helping other people. But it is a bit complicated to make it work with the benefit.

3:39 am

grannyrose

pfft, sprite, was typing. ;-P. yes, pugs. we have a good friday service, and we go to the easter sunday as well.

3:39 am

sprite

*giggles* Sorry rose :D

3:40 am

puglet

I will Rose but Iam going to try to let my own body handle it if it can with out aids---I think if I take care of the sugar and the stress and me I will make it

3:40 am

puglet

that will make you feel better too Rose

3:40 am

grannyrose

sprite, what happened to the training for the counselling thingy you all went to? is it out of the question, financially?

3:40 am

sprite

sounds like a great battle plan, pugs. And remember we are here for you, any time. Email me if you need me. I have your back, and so does rose.

3:41 am

puglet

thanks guys and I will Sprite

3:41 am

sprite

no rose, but the trainer said she wants me to finish my own therapy first. So am going to wrap things up this year, and try to join her course next year.

3:42 am

sprite

am gonna try and put money aside for it. Don't know the price yet. But it will be expensive and maybe that will make it impossible. We will see.

3:42 am

grannyrose

oh, good sprite. i am so glad that that option is open still.

3:43 am

sprite

even if I can't do it with that trainer, rose, I will find a place where I can... this IS going to happen, one way or the other.

3:43 am

puglet

could I help some Sprite---I could send you what Ive saved for the W7---and I mean it too

3:43 am

grannyrose

good on ya, sprite

3:44 am

sprite

no way, darling, no way. Thank you so much for offering. But you need every cent you have. Please spend it on yourself. And I mean that too.

3:45 am

puglet

well if you need it the door is always open

3:45 am

grannyrose

and so can i....in fact i would insist on it, if that was the only thing stopping you from doing it.

3:45 am

sprite

am really touched by the offer, pugs. *hugs*

3:45 am

gran

ri 7/36; ri 8/50 clues please

3:46 am

grannyrose

gran, ri*, tear + ebb or neap

3:46 am

puglet

Sprite-that will be a life long thing for you and to help would mean alot

3:46 am

sprite

thanks rose, that is awesome. I will keep it in mind. But if I can manage to ea4 some with counselling, I think I will be able to manage. *hugs*

3:46 am

puglet

and how are you and the window 7 doing Sprite

3:46 am

grannyrose

as far as i am concerned, it would be a great investment.

3:47 am

gran

Thanks

3:47 am

grannyrose

np's gran

3:47 am

puglet

I feel the same way Rose

3:48 am

sprite

we are becoming friends, pugs. I was able to tweak things a bit so I have my handy QuickStart bar back, and the Show Desktop button on it. Email is working the way I like, too.

3:48 am

sprite

remember I went to my old teacher, for that reunion and supervision/intervision thing?

3:49 am

puglet

is it a big change from the xp

3:49 am

puglet

yes I remember that--not been too long ago

3:49 am

sprite

so far I am thinking not so much, pugs. Things look a bit different, but once you start using it, it pretty quickly grows on ya.

3:51 am

grannyrose

if you have any issues with windows 7, sprite, email don. among other things he is computer savvy.

3:51 am

puglet

do you still have the same email that you had or did you have to change

3:51 am

sprite

well, was talking this through with my teacher and he suggested to write a letter to all my friends and relations, and ask them to invest in me. I could give out coupons, so to speak, for sessions with me. He called it crew funding.

3:51 am

sprite

no, the email address you get from your provider, that does not change.

3:51 am

puglet

thats a good ideal

3:52 am

puglet

so have you done that

3:52 am

grannyrose

sounds interesting, sprite.

3:53 am

puglet

do me and Rose get a coupon? lol

3:53 am

sprite

it scares me shitless, tbh, to write such a letter. But I think I will. I can offer people a lot of choice... they can either buy a coupon for a meditation session, dream work, counselling or reiki treatment now, or invest in a coupon for Family Constellations after I finish my training.

3:53 am

Jayk

we call that crowd funding here--what an interesting difference! and GM

3:54 am

sprite

awesome, Jayk! Maybe I heard wrong and he said crowd funding. Good morning :)

3:54 am

puglet

morning JayK

3:54 am

grannyrose

mornin' jayk

3:55 am

sprite

lol pugs, you could get a coupon for free... just have to find a way to use it!

3:55 am

puglet

well you know your father could use several--lol could you handle that?

3:55 am

grannyrose

i'll bring her over with me....

3:55 am

Jayk

Hi all. No, I bet you heard right. There are a few internet sites for that sort of thing--and they seem to work.

3:55 am

sprite

my father is a narcissist, darling. He thinks he is perfect and all those weird other people are crazy.

3:56 am

sprite

that would be so awesome, rose

3:57 am

puglet

I think you would be good for OO, You wouldnt give up on him like his docs have

3:58 am

sprite

I would never give up on someone as dedicated as o-o.

3:58 am

puglet

people like that shouldnt even be helping anyone but searching help for themselves

3:59 am

puglet

I know you wouldnt and thats why I said that

3:59 am

sprite

if only I could start working without losing the benefit completely right away. Must figure out a way.

4:00 am

sprite

so true, pugs. There are so many needy therapists in therapy land.

4:00 am

puglet

I hope you can too--got to be carefull who you ask advice from too when in that boat

4:01 am

sprite

oh, I didn't tell you guys that... that is what my psychiatrist is going to do, together with the psychiatrist who does the family constellations. They are gonna offer therapy to therapists.

4:01 am

sprite

indeed pugs... it is a scary thing. I have found out before that they often punish you for trying to get back on your feet.

4:01 am

puglet

that would be good Sprite for after all they are human too

4:02 am

puglet

they do Sprite and I think its very unfair

4:02 am

sprite

yes and they often are afraid to go to a therapist... afraid their own patients find out... etc etc.

4:03 am

sprite

the benefit office has left me in peace for a couple of years now. I am afraid to call them, lol... afraid they suddenly remember me. Much better to be forgotten.

4:03 am

puglet

sad but its true

4:04 am

grannyrose

and that may well be where you are needed most, sprite. offering counselling to therapists only. giving them support, counselling in safety.

4:04 am

puglet

Rose as a nurse do you have to attend things like that at work

4:06 am

sprite

I might end up working with them, rose. I have a feeling it might work out that way. But I still have a way to go before I can do that... I lack the papers, you know.

4:06 am

grannyrose

what do you mean, pugs?

4:07 am

puglet

dealing with illnesses and death do you have to go to classes to handle such things to ease you own mind and well being

4:08 am

puglet

I mean after a while those things can lay heavy on ones soul and mind

4:08 am

grannyrose

oh, well that is part of our training. and the company does offer free counselling service to it's employees. remember don and i went to that grief counsellor? well, that was through work.

4:09 am

puglet

oh--do you have to pay for that or is it offered free

4:10 am

grannyrose

some nurses can't handle death and dieing...they find that out very early in their career. they usually move onto something else very quickly...like horticulture.

4:11 am

sprite

roflolllll

4:11 am

puglet

I know at the nursing home, you get attached to those people and when several goes in a row and then dealing with the famlies too it can take a toll on you

4:11 am

grannyrose

it was free, pugs. like our flu vax. the company sees it has a responsibility to the emotional and physical welfare of it's employees. unfortunately, that does not extend to workcover cases.

4:12 am

sprite

it is especially hard if you don't see death as a part of life. If you can accept that death is a part of life, handling death and grieving people becomes less hard.

4:13 am

sprite

lol I found ra8. Past tensed it just for the fun of it and it took!

4:14 am

grannyrose

you know, with my faith, i found that i am not afraid of death. yes it makes me sad, but i am not scared. i recognise that my grief comes from a sense of loss.

4:14 am

puglet

what bothered me the most were the ones with no family and they just wanted someone with them as they passed..

4:14 am

grannyrose

oh, pugs, that is so sad

4:14 am

o-o

many are dead long before the grim reaper comes to get you

4:15 am

grannyrose

too true, o-o.

4:15 am

puglet

welcome back OO and so true

4:15 am

sprite

that is the same way I feel about it, rose. Yes, it does make me sad. But it is not scary or unbearable. What we lose, is the possibility to interact with our loved one. And getting used to that takes time and mourning.

4:15 am

sprite

so very true, o-o

4:16 am

sprite

that is really sad, pugs. Wonderful if you could be with them at such a time.

4:16 am

puglet

it is Rose--help severals hands as they left here--its was hard for me to take--I cant stand for someone to be alone

4:16 am

puglet

held not help

4:17 am

puglet

we were not allowed to pray there but I always asked and I did so if they wanted it

4:18 am

sprite

good job, pug. As long as they want you to, it shouldn't be forbidden.

4:19 am

puglet

thats how I felt too--some things are more important then job and money

4:19 am

grannyrose

good for you, pugs. i did have a patient who, once she was awake, wanted to say the lord's prayer. i was the only one in the room who knew the words, and could pray with her. too sad.

4:19 am

sprite

I wouldn't know the words in english either. Should look them up.

4:20 am

o-o

pug, is being alone the better option even when those with you do not respect you? I fight with everyone.

4:21 am

grannyrose

and another time, i was 'specialling' a patient who had had a kidney removed. in the wee small hours of the night, she woke up and asked for her rosary beads. when i asked if she would like me to pray for her, she said yes. months later, she came into the ward, to say thank-you.

4:21 am

puglet

let me think on that a sec-OO

4:21 am

sprite

aw that is beautiful, rose

4:22 am

grannyrose

o-o, is it you doing the fighting, or those who are with you?

4:22 am

sprite

if you fight because they don't respect you, you are right to fight, I think.

4:22 am

rubyfoo

good morning everybody

4:23 am

sprite

hi ruby :)

4:23 am

grannyrose

good morning, sunshine. {{hugs}} ruby

4:23 am

puglet

Hi Ruby

4:23 am

rubyfoo

the earth says hello....(whoops, maybe that's starshine)

4:24 am

rubyfoo

you twinkle above us, we twinkle below

4:24 am

o-o

I have been alone for decades ... I still get myself in trouble ....

4:24 am

grannyrose

*giggle* ruby

4:24 am

grannyrose

oh, dear, o-o. i so wish i had an answer for you, mate.

4:26 am

sprite

me too, o-o. No simple solution there, alas. Just my heartfelt wish you'd be less alone and able to interact with someone nice and kind and respectful.

4:26 am

rubyfoo

we had a scary morning. I woke up with the worst headache I've ever had, not a migraine, but my whole head and neck. I took a double dose of paracetimol and codeine and drank coffee and it finally went away

4:26 am

puglet

first why are you fighting OO? And if your illness is causing these things then you can not help it. And those that loves you OO will do so as you are not what they want you to be. As for myself I hate, hate being alone inside and out==I dont think anyone should be alone to face whatever goes in life

4:26 am

rubyfoo

I just sat and cried. Poor Burt!

4:27 am

sprite

and poor ruby too. I sometimes have a horrible headache when I get up too, that goes away with paracetamol with caffeine and coffee.

4:27 am

o-o

that assumes that life is worthy of attention ...

4:28 am

rubyfoo

is it your whole head, sprite, or half, like a migraine

4:28 am

rubyfoo

It was worse than a hangover an I had nothing to drink yesterday

4:28 am

sprite

in some way it must be, o-o, since you are living it. Heroically, but still.

4:28 am

sprite

no, not like migraine. Temples, brow, top of the head, backside, neck.

4:28 am

Marc Freeman

I suggest mediation and coca cola

4:29 am

sprite

also a good cure, Marc, and hi :)

4:29 am

puglet

You and your life is worthy of all things good OO--if there wasent a reason for you to be here, you wouldnt. You are important to me and more than I can say as well as for you others

4:29 am

sprite

I am with pugs on that, o-o. You matter to me. A lot.

4:29 am

o-o

only because I am not in a hurry to take a ride on the river styx

4:30 am

puglet

thank

4:30 am

puglet

sorry

4:30 am

grannyrose

dear o-o, know this. it takes more courage to go on living, when all around you falls.

4:31 am

sprite

hm, reading more closely... do you mean mediation, Marc, or do you mean meditation?

4:31 am

puglet

Thank God for that, OO---you ever think that your words that you share give meaning to us

4:31 am

grannyrose

and for that, i am eternally grateful. you witticisms and words of wisdom are so appreciated.

4:32 am

sprite

very much so. I have several of your posts copied on my hard disk, to read over when I need them.

4:32 am

The floro light above my desk is flickering. Grrrr.

9:00 am

Judi

And, I changed my icon pic again, but it's not showing. Dammit!

9:03 am

zoozzoom

I see your icon as a cat with a yellow bunny thing, Judi.

9:03 am

Judi

*pouts* *guzzles more coffee*

9:03 am

Judi

That is the correct picture, zooz. Cat vs. Peep.

9:04 am

MollyL

I see it too. It really puzzles me why refresh does not work for some people regarding icons.

9:04 am

zoozzoom

Looks like cat is going to win :-)

9:05 am

Judi

Alas, Babble mocks me.

9:05 am

MollyL

By the way, you need to refresh while you are in MY ACCOUNT and when you return to chat.

9:05 am

Judi

Been there, done that, Molls.

9:06 am

zoozzoom

Where the chat comes up, Judi right click on tat bit and click on reload..that should sort it out for you.

9:06 am

zoozzoom

That.

9:08 am

MollyL

Well then I can only imagine that it's a matter of browser history settings and/or a full load in cache/cookies.

9:09 am

Judi

Pffth I say.

We were sunny and 80 degrees on Monday. Yesterday it was rainy and windy and the temp dropped to about 35 degrees last night. It is sunny, cool and breezy this a.m. What's a girl to wear?

9:23 am

Judi

If you spritz me with water, do I not sizzle?

9:24 am

mixi6

I used to call them warmings. They were only warm and lasted more than a flash. I put my hair up and didn't notice most of them, except I wasn't freezing all the time.

Not sure whst a prayet is but prayers being sent.

4:15 pm

4:21 pm

lilliann

Hi Soodles.I've just read your profile and am sending big hugs and love sent your way and anything you need just let us know.The bairn had this karate doll and we both use it to hit when we were annoyed with eachother as it made silly noises when we did.I'm going to find you one so you can punch it to bits but laugh aswell.xxx

4:21 pm

periwinkle

I want to join in the ribald drinking session too but I will probably fall asleep before everyone else :)

4:22 pm

jillibus

Yes, thanks for posting that profile, Soodle. What a time you've been having!

4:22 pm

MollyL

That's okay Peri, we will pull the old slumber party trick and pour water on your wrists.

4:23 pm

Great idea, Molly.

4:23 pm

Soodle

Falling asleep is good, Peri. At least you won't fall out with anyone. And, ((((Jilli)))) (((((Lillli))))

4:25 pm

MollyL

I suppose being in a boarding school dorm could count as a slumber party?

4:25 pm

4:25 pm

Wasn't much fun, though.

4:45 pm

lilliann

Sorry, Peri, hubby was on phone and the bairn has fallen asleep on the sofa.Aye, the train went well thanks.Someone was sitting in the bairn's seat so she had to sit opposite me, where she was practically ontop of me as the seats opposite the wheelchair space are kept empty because of no leg space with a wheelchair.we could have told her to move but the train was that full that there were people stood up inbetween the carriages...saying that there was a reserved ticket in my name behind her head, so how she missed it!

4:45 pm

Riverdance

On demand is included in your cable service. Other than some movies you need to pay for. TV shows stay on for a few weeks and then slowly drop off. I live with On Demand. If I forget to record then I just watch it from the on demand TV show postings.

4:55 pm

Riverdance

5:19 pm

lilliann

zoozzoom

Hello, Jaxx :-)

5:28 pm

lilliann

Hi Jaxx:D

5:28 pm

zoozzoom

It amazes me at how many people used to wear hats in days gone by...as now most people only wear hats in winter.

5:29 pm

jaxx7

Lilliann. I have been very good and made three cards before I came to babble

5:29 pm

lilliann

The bairn has woken up and i'm trying to get her to go to bed....mmm...may take a while!!

5:29 pm

lilliann

OOh, are you feeling ok Jaxx!! :D

5:29 pm

crosshair

my father in law told me all about that in the years before he passed. I had no idea of the serious consideration and yes, money that went into the descision of buying a hat

5:30 pm

crosshair

in the 40s*

5:30 pm

lilliann

I made one the other night, or i should say nearly one...it was a pop up box card

5:30 pm

jaxx7

They still tipped their hats to ladies then, crossy

5:31 pm

lilliann

I loved seeing the ladies in the 30/40's wearing hats.I look awful in a hat

5:31 pm

crosshair

they did indeed, spring hats, summer hats, straw hats, winter hats. Three well made custom hats for the gentleman was considered the minimum.

5:31 pm

zoozzoom

Yes very true...the different styles too..like a bowler type hat for bankers..top hats for the wealthy.

5:31 pm

jaxx7

I wear specs and it is so hard to find a hat that suits

5:31 pm

lilliann

The hats then were very elegant, not like now with men wearing tea cosies and women wearing animal hats with plaits

5:32 pm

crosshair

and the ladies with the big hats, the tiny hats of the 40,s and lots, and lots of hat pins to keep that rakish angle just so

5:32 pm

zoozzoom

Tea cosies..LOL

5:32 pm

jaxx7

All the knitting mags seem to concentrate on knitting those and little else

5:33 pm

crosshair

my mil had a wide variety of hat pins still in her jewellery box. thay are quite decorative and interesting

5:33 pm

jaxx7

They are still collected, crossy and might be worth something

5:33 pm

lilliann

I know jaxx, and they are awful!

5:34 pm

zoozzoom

Yes i think the hat pins were beautifully made...And Lilliann you are right the ladies in those days looked so elegant.

5:34 pm

lilliann

Us card crafters use hat pins now

5:34 pm

jaxx7

Quick to knit and warm, though

5:35 pm

zoozzoom

Although i am sure it was a nightmare to wear half the clothes they used to wear....very heavy and tight fitting in some cases.

5:35 pm

Soodle

Crossy! Jaxx! Lill! Oh! Its like seeing the flowers in Spring to see such much loved friends on here. I promise each of you an individual reply to your emails. In the meantime, see my profile for a potted history. Lovely to see you.

Aye, they drew a line up the back of the leg didn't they

5:38 pm

jaxx7

But there weren't many nylons around during and after the war

5:39 pm

Soodle

Hey Zooz ... Unusual to see you here at this hour. Unusual, but lovely!

5:39 pm

MollyL

There was plenty of hosiery in Hollywood and that is where all the pin-up girls came from.

5:39 pm

The British women loved the American soldiers though as they gave them 'nylons'

5:43 pm

zoozzoom

haha bet she scared the life out of you, Crossy..lol

5:43 pm

MollyL

Oh no...ew...can we not talk of grammy's and garters and hosiery in the same conversation...: O

5:43 pm

lilliann

mmm, not good, but in the war time i don't suppose any female to get them complained...plus if it laddered you could always blame it on a bomb falling!

5:43 pm

lilliann

I like woolies

5:43 pm

zoozzoom

Yes i can see the picture it is painting, Molly, hahaha

5:43 pm

jaxx7

My mother did the same with my dad when she got a chair and broke a whole box of eggs one by one over his head. Mum was 5'2'' and Dad 6' 2'' and all he had to do was step away but he stood there and took it.

greetings all - any clues for to6?

5:55 pm

movieman

the da6 is more of a derogatory term for spaniards really

5:55 pm

MollyL

Probably depends on what kind of neighborhood you grew up in.

5:55 pm

gramma

Beyond the Latin plural--to the past tense

5:55 pm

MollyL

to6 past tense of Roman garb

5:56 pm

phandmd

Lilli, I didn't have a day off yesterday. Yesterday was my Tueday on; and it was probably my most difficult day at work so far.

5:56 pm

wore a roman gown knight

5:56 pm

Molly, I grew up mostly in Mo. Co. but up until 4th grade, we moved around a lot.

5:56 pm

thanks that was my last word

5:56 pm

movieman, you're right. I mixed up my ethnic slurs

5:56 pm

I don't know about the UK, Movieman but the da4 in the US is a derogatory word for Italians.

5:57 pm

Guinea, Wop you name it I grew up with it

I live in UK and I think it is a slur word for Italians too

Archie Bunker wasn't that funny because I lived in a house just like it

6:01 pm

MollyL

From what I heard from my husband, the ethnic slurs in Canada are different than they are here in the US. Probably because of the different immigration patterns.

6:05 pm

My ears are better than my mouth. If I could sing I would, but since I can't I put my energy into enjoying the music.

Molly, I love my past. It has made me the woman I am. Aware of the prejudices and pit falls and all embracing of the differences that bind us. G'night

and now it is time for crossy,s picture of the day!!. And today i have a copy of a wonderful picture of the Manhattan bridge under construction in 1909. The picture is very busy and there are so many interesting things to see that you find yourself just looking at what this photographer captured for at least a few minutes!.. http://tinyurl.com/ogwttag

6:11 pm

lilliann

Are you going to do make a jigsaw out of it Crossy?

6:11 pm

crosshair

lol! this would make a tough jigsaw puzzle!

6:12 pm

lilliann

Some people like them tough:)

6:13 pm

crosshair

actually my next one is to be of three white tailed deer in a field of apple trees working in harmony with half a dozen or so wild turkeys in a concentrated effort to bring ground fall apples up from under the snow for a early spring snack

6:13 pm

MollyL

L likes it tough. *Sends red hot alert out in the Babble gossip grapevine*

6:13 pm

lilliann

Good Lord L, go get those critters out of your daughter's head

*finds head itching now*...

6:18 pm

lilliann

Every time she went down South she got them or when my nieces came up here they would pass them on, but that was because of one of my niece's friend's alway had them and my ex S.i.l never did anything much about it but tell them to put a nit comb through their hair and they didn't know what they were doing as they were kids but she never used the proper nit shampoo

6:19 pm

lilliann

I will check and i've been scratching all night and i hugged them all....

6:19 pm

crosshair

my son caught them twice from the public school when he was small. It was a nightmare.

6:20 pm

crosshair

but better than with the young girls. I just shaved my kid right down to a buzz cut that would make a military man proud

6:21 pm

crosshair

then all the shampoos, the nit combs and bagging and washing everything he owned

6:21 pm

Bugsaw

now they just have you wash the hair and then put lots of conditioner on. Don't rinse it off for an hour or two. It smothers the live ones without a lot of cost and the you can use the comb to get the nits out.

6:27 pm

MollyL

It's not the hair treatment. It's the absolute fumigation you have to do to your home to keep them from re-infesting.

6:33 pm

lilliann

Bye all and tc as i now have to go and treat nits!!!! Thank god i have some stuff in...but isn't it great that i'm getting shouted at because of them....It's all my fault apparently as i'm the one that always treats her!!I'm so glad she is Back.....am of and scratching head:D bye and tc all

Now it is time for crossy's amazing tidbit of the day!! Google has applied for a patent for a contact lens with a built in camera. The camera itself does not process the picture, but instead will send it to Googel glass or your I-phone. This will be invaluable for blind people as it will take snapshots of anything around you such as traffic, crosswalks, obstructions, people around you as well as street signs and building address numbers and give the vision disabled real time info to assist in navigating the area around them!

7:16 pm

Lizlin

That's really interesting. I love your tidbits of the day.

7:17 pm
