1:12 am

puglet

Rose, did you get my mail

1:12 am

grannyrose

yes, thanx dear. have you slept more than usual?

1:14 am

puglet

yes I did--but those meds are strong, Rose--I sure cant take them and drive or work--Iam still woozy from them and shakey too--Feel like Ive smoked pot back in my teens-lol Hope it wears off before going to work

1:16 am

grannyrose

pugs, are the tablets enteric coated? it should tell you on the packet?

1:17 am

VolleymomDee

fireworks... off til the flip... hoping to get some rest, too LOOOONG day. Hugs rose and pugs and flosey!!!

1:17 am

puglet

they are caps. Rose and I dont know what you mean by enteric coated

1:17 am

saanichcat

hello rose!

1:17 am

saanichcat

and pugs!

1:18 am

puglet

Hi saan

1:18 am

puglet

congrats Dee-take care and have a good rest

1:19 am

grannyrose

okay, pugs. i was hoping you were on the tablet form. in which case you may have been able to cut the tablet in half.

1:20 am

grannyrose

night, dee, i hope you can rest well tonight.

1:20 am

puglet

not these Rose--like I said they are capsules

1:21 am

puglet

but I dont feel no back pain--dont feel anything-lol

1:21 am

grannyrose

there is a lower dose available...100mgs....you're supposed to take one three times/day, right?

1:22 am

puglet

yes and these are 300mgs

1:22 am

puglet

I cant take them going to work, thats for sure--they would have me taking a drug test-lol

1:23 am

grannyrose

exactly, and you are very relaxed, shall we say? good that the pain has gone, but am a little concerned from your body's reaction to it.

1:23 am

puglet

more then relaxed-lol I am floating-lol How long do you think it will take the nerves to mend

1:24 am

rururocks

Yes you should send all pain medicine to ru and granny

1:24 am

rururocks

That you don't need :D

1:24 am

grannyrose

i was wondering if you could ring the doctor's and leave a message for your doctor, tell her that you are overly drowsy on them. maybe she will write a prescription for the lower dose ones.

1:25 am

grannyrose

without you having to go in for a consultation.

1:25 am

puglet

I will then after work and ask

1:25 am

rururocks

Nerves. What nerves

1:26 am

puglet

somehow I damage the nerves in my back Ru and that is against the law to share stuff like that

1:26 am

grannyrose

i think it's more a case of the nerves needing to stop being so active, and calm down. then you won't have the pain.

1:27 am

puglet

Rose, she thinks stress is playing a big roll in this--I dont see how that can damage the nerves

1:28 am

saanichcat

sometimes I empty half a capsule onto a crackerâ€¦you can reduce the dose that way

1:28 am

rururocks

Tightness can cause all kinds of issues

1:28 am

rururocks

7

1:28 am

puglet

I can try that saan, thanks

1:29 am

grannyrose

pugs, dear, stress tightens the muscles in our body, that is the way our bodies get ready for fight, flight or fright. your muscles haven't let go because of the stress you are living with.

1:29 am

saanichcat

tightness as in stingy
?

1:29 am

rururocks

No as in tight

1:30 am

puglet

I will have to try that after work--I dont want to cut my hands off in the machs. at work-lol

1:30 am

saanichcat

sorry missed rose's comment

1:30 am

grannyrose

right now, because of the walking i did at work this morning, the muscles across my shoulder blades are tight and aching.

1:31 am

grannyrose

*sigh* and no ruru, i wasn't walking on my hands....lol

1:31 am

puglet

well, taking these Iam sure not going to feel stress-lol or anything as far as that goes

1:32 am

grannyrose

agreed, pugs, no more until you have been to work.

1:32 am

puglet

Have Don massage your shoulders Rose, if he will and again that hot tub would be nice

1:32 am

flosey

not even half way but too tired tonight, bb tomorrow

1:33 am

puglet

I just hope this wears off before going

1:33 am

flosey

goodnight all

1:33 am

saanichcat

see yoou tomorrow flosey

1:33 am

puglet

night Flosey, take care

1:33 am

grannyrose

night, dearest flosey. i hope you have sweet dreams.

1:34 am

grannyrose

i think it will, pugs, as your doctor has ordered you to have it three times/day, which tells me it doesn't stay in the system for more than 8 hours.

1:35 am

puglet

that, or she didnt want me feeling anything all day-lol

1:36 am

puglet

she did say it might make me sleepy--but its more then a little sleep

1:37 am

grannyrose

*giggle* about not wanting you feel anything...pugs see how you feel after the 8 hours are over.

1:38 am

puglet

right now I got the shakes bad

1:39 am

saanichcat

pugs have googled the name of the drug to see what the side effects are?

1:39 am

puglet

how did work go Rose

1:39 am

grannyrose

how long since you took your last dose?

1:40 am

saanichcat

*have you

1:40 am

puglet

no I havent Saan

1:40 am

grannyrose

i have saanichcat, shakes isn't one of them.

1:40 am

saanichcat

be worth a look

1:40 am

puglet

I took it about 6pm last night so its been about 8 hours ago

1:40 am

puglet

I will Saan, thanks

1:41 am

saanichcat

oh, thanks rose. I'll butt out of what I know nothing about!

1:41 am

grannyrose

hmmm, anything on the box about not stopping too quickly?

1:41 am

grannyrose

lol, saani, no, please, your comments are very welcome.

1:42 am

puglet

yes Saan, thank you for helping too

1:44 am

grannyrose

and pugs, you need to space your med as equally as possible. which means you should try for 8 hours between doses. or as near as you can.

1:45 am

puglet

the way they are doing me, Iam afraid to take any before going to work Rose

1:45 am

sprite

good morning my dear friends

1:45 am

saanichcat

rose, do you find the time-release meds better than the others? Maybe pugs would do bettter on those

1:45 am

grannyrose

then don't, pugs, absolutely no.

1:45 am

puglet

I get off at noon, so I might get two in for the day

1:45 am

grannyrose

morning and {{hugs}} sprite

1:46 am

puglet

Good Morning Dear Sprite=hugs and love :)

1:46 am

sprite

*hugs pugs and rose*

1:46 am

grannyrose

saani, some are good. i take a 'time-release' med before i go to bed, and use the fast relief during the day, when i need ...well, i need rapid relief.

1:47 am

puglet

did you get rest and a good night of sleep Sprite

1:47 am

saanichcat

good luck pugs and do whatever rose says!

1:47 am

sprite

I did, pugs, thank you :) And you, did you sleep on the new meds?

1:47 am

puglet

thank you Saan

1:48 am

puglet

lol--yes Sprite--about six hours

1:48 am

grannyrose

i also take enteric-coated tabs for pain as close as i can to 6am, 2pm, and 10pm.

1:48 am

sprite

awesome, pugs :) I have the same meds, btw.

1:49 am

grannyrose

i knew i recognised the name....wasn't sure if it was you or dee.

1:49 am

puglet

do y

1:49 am

puglet

do they make you dopey Sprite

1:50 am

sprite

not anymore, pugs. Only in the beginning.

1:50 am

puglet

I feel like I have smoked pot--lol

1:50 am

puglet

okay--maybe I just need to get use to them, then

1:51 am

sprite

hehehe yes. Enjoy it while it lasts. And take care with driving etc. In a week or two, three, you will be able to do everything as normal again.

1:51 am

puglet

yeah, Iam not taking any before work-lol

1:53 am

sprite

I take one (600mg) every 8 hours. And I drive everywhere I need to, no problem. You will get used to them soon enough.

1:54 am

puglet

good--right now I got the shakes and a little light headed

1:55 am

puglet

I will just have to give them time then

1:55 am

sprite

yeah, it is weird stuff, since it work on the whole nervous system. Please do give it time. You will be amazed at how well they work once your body gets used to them.

1:56 am

puglet

I will--thanks

1:56 am

sprite

*hugs*

1:56 am

puglet

your daughter wrote me a nice ty letter

1:57 am

sprite

oh great :) I knew she would, just didn't know when she would find the time to do it.

1:57 am

puglet

I wrote her back--that was so sweet of her to do

1:58 am

sprite

she really appreciated what you did for her, darling

1:59 am

puglet

well anytime you guys need help like that, you just ask

1:59 am

sprite

will do :D

1:59 am

puglet

:) okay

2:01 am

puglet

I have met some really nice godly women on DS---its hard to keep up with all the writing-lol but it has helped alot

2:01 am

sprite

oh wow! Good for you!

2:02 am

puglet

and I met a guy that is going through the same thing with a lady friend and he said it was spooky that we are sharing the same feelings for someone--it is weird in a way

2:03 am

sprite

yeah but also a consolation, I think. It is nice to be really understood.

2:04 am

puglet

but its helping us to get through it and deal with the hurt--I dont feel so stupid or like the only one

2:04 am

sprite

very good. You are never stupid and no, of course you are not the only one. Am glad you found support.

2:05 am

puglet

I know I wont let it happen again--losing a friend hurts too much

2:06 am

sprite

you learn every time something happens, darling. But don't lock your feelings up, it is better to get hurt now and then than to lock away your feelings in fear of getting hurt.

2:08 am

puglet

Sprite, what good did it do to share those feelings? Its not worth all the pain of that--I dont want to go through that again

2:09 am

sprite

I'll email you about it, ok?

2:09 am

puglet

okay

2:10 am

puglet

sorry, maybe I said too much

2:10 am

sprite

no of course not. I just don't want to put your really personal stuff in the chog.

2:11 am

puglet

You know how its been for me and I understand----Is caya still enjoy that cup for herself

2:12 am

sprite

not sure if she has already. Will ask :)

2:13 am

sprite

did we lose our rose?

2:13 am

puglet

I hope she likes it--lol Just feel bad for her over it and how it went

2:14 am

puglet

shes having pain in her back and shoulders

2:14 am

sprite

yeah it was really nasty. She is coping pretty well though. And she will love the mug, she has already unpacked it and seen it and she said it was even better than she thought.

2:14 am

sprite

poor rose :(

2:15 am

puglet

good--I was afraid it would remind her of the bad part of its meaning

2:16 am

sprite

I think it does and that is the reason she hasn't started using it yet. Time will help.

2:16 am

grannyrose

i'm hear. was just letting you two visit

2:17 am

sprite

we much rather visit with the three of us, rose

2:17 am

puglet

Rose you are always apart of our group

2:18 am

grannyrose

it's okay. sometimes things need to be said without a third party intruding. i would have said something if i didn't agree, as you both well know.

2:18 am

sprite

an important part even

2:18 am

sprite

thank God, rose. As you should, grin.

2:18 am

puglet

so, whats wrong with that Rose

2:19 am

puglet

brb

2:19 am

grannyrose

take my silence as agreement, pugs

2:19 am

sprite

lol I found a peniseed.

2:22 am

grannyrose

sprite, workcover are sending me to an occupational rehabilitation provider. don thinks it's an occupational therapist. it seems like W/C agent has had a good look at their doctor's report which says don't expect a full recovery.

2:22 am

puglet

I think its better to feel nothing then to feel all that hurt

2:23 am

puglet

and what will they do to help you Rose

2:23 am

sprite

oh very good! Finally. About freakin' time they saw the light, rose. HOw do you feel about it?

2:24 am

sprite

very understandable to feel that way, pugs. But no, it is not.

2:24 am

puglet

are they then going to let you cut your hours then Rose

2:24 am

grannyrose

don't know pugs. to me it's a waste of money and time, as i am already returning to work. on the other hand, they might support the doctor and tell W/C agent to pay me out.

2:25 am

puglet

and how do you feel if that happens Rose

2:25 am

sprite

if they are any good, rose, they will be able to teach you better ways to do certain things. That in itself will be worth something.

2:25 am

grannyrose

i have 2 years and 9 months to go to retirement. who on earth is going to employ me, plus all the other stuff wrong with this body.

2:26 am

grannyrose

pugs, i want them to pay me out, with enough to retire on right now. i would do it in an instant.

2:26 am

puglet

what do YOU want Rose? You dont like sitting at home

2:27 am

puglet

maybe you could find a at home person to take care of--or something thats less of a stress on your body

2:27 am

sprite

good for you, rose. Enough other things to spend your time and energy on. And if you get bored, there are always volunteer things that will make you feel needed.

2:27 am

grannyrose

pugs, i have plenty to do, outside of the house. and i have been putting off a long overdue visit with two very dear friends because of this injury. xoxox

2:28 am

sprite

hehehe :D *hugs rose* If that ever really happens, all of babble will be able to hear my celebrational yell.

2:28 am

puglet

Then I hope it works out for you Rose

2:29 am

puglet

would that be me and Sprite? :)

2:29 am

grannyrose

exactly, sprite. there is a lot of voluntary work around. i would love to be a mentor for our local school. our church has an out-reach program happening in the local schools. i would love to be a part of that.

2:29 am

grannyrose

you betch pugs...

2:30 am

sprite

you'd be perfect for that. And so much easier on your body. Smart thinking.

2:30 am

puglet

we wont ever want to part, the three of us

2:30 am

grannyrose

*giggle* sprite, would that be anything like a rebel yell?

2:30 am

sprite

true, that

2:30 am

sprite

absolutely, rose! Yeeeeeeeeeee-hawwwwww!

2:31 am

grannyrose

*chuckling* it is gonna happen, i promise.

2:32 am

sprite

awesome. Even planning it will be so much fun already! Reserve some time in the netherlands. We will want to show you some highlights :)

2:32 am

puglet

I cant wait! But will be so sad when we have to part :(

2:33 am

sprite

perfect example of what I meant earlier, pugs... yes it will hurt to pa4 again. But isn't that better than not meeting at all?

2:34 am

puglet

true on that Sprite

2:35 am

grannyrose

closer to the time, i predict a lot of emails flying all over the world...

2:35 am

sprite

avoiding hurt is avoiding life. Not the way to go. We will meet, enjoy it to the hilt, hurt when parting and then enjoy having so many good memories :)

2:36 am

grannyrose

pugs, darling, to be able to see your darling faces, and kiss and hug you both physically will become my most precious memory.

2:36 am

puglet

as for me too--I already got tears thinking about it

2:37 am

grannyrose

something's wrong with my glasses....everything is blurry....lol

2:37 am

puglet

yeah the screen is a bit blurry-lol

2:38 am

sprite

it is contagious, it seems

2:38 am

grannyrose

oh, good, i thought i might have something in my eyes...lolol

2:38 am

sprite

I checked and I did... it was salty and wet

2:38 am

puglet

giggles--sisterhood!

2:39 am

grannyrose

you too, sprite. or are you the ever pragmatic dutchwoman?

2:39 am

sprite

oh dear, no. I cry at the drop of a hat. I can cry when Dombo's mum fights for him in the circus. Or when I hear Caya sing her heart out.

2:40 am

grannyrose

hmmm, now the imagination is running riot. what about the three of us going to see ruby...how does that sit with you both?

2:40 am

puglet

oh wow!

2:41 am

sprite

already met ruby. Always in for another opportunity. Would love to be able to hug her again, and mrRuby as well.

2:41 am

grannyrose

i will leave don in rob's tender care. and we will steal 10 days just for ourselves.

2:42 am

sprite

ohhhhh that would be so awesome!

2:42 am

grannyrose

yeah!!!!!

2:45 am

sprite

celtic harp babblet alert!

2:45 am

puglet

Ive got Zoom on my mind--hope they all faired well yesterday

2:45 am

grannyrose

okay, girls, time to come back down to earth...lol....it is gonna happen....it will be a holiday to remember for all of us. it's strange. since my darling robyn died, i haven't felt this close to anyone, excepting don, of course.

2:46 am

sprite

*hugs rose* We are soul sisters, the three of us. I truly believe that.

2:46 am

sprite

have been thinking of zooz as well.

2:46 am

puglet

yeah, we got a bond here thats lasting, I think--hugs to you both

2:46 am

grannyrose

yeah, pugs. i know what you mean. i will email him later.

2:47 am

puglet

please put in a loving word from me

2:47 am

grannyrose

oh, okay, pugs. sprite, you too?

2:48 am

sprite

Will write him myself. But yes, he can never get enough hugs, so please do.

2:48 am

grannyrose

does zooz know both your real names?

2:48 am

grannyrose

oh, good, sprite.

2:49 am

sprite

told him mine, but don't know if he remembers

2:49 am

puglet

I worry this might put him back into a depression

2:49 am

sprite

we won't let him, pugs. Don't worry. Just pray for him and send him good vibes.

2:49 am

puglet

I think he does Rose, for Ive mailed him but I use pugs

2:50 am

puglet

yes I do pray for him and have wrote him a few times

2:51 am

sprite

good :)

2:51 am

puglet

stuff like this is so hard and the man was so young

2:52 am

sprite

yes, it is really really hard. Will be a tough mourning for them all.

2:53 am

puglet

time and support is about all that helps in times like those

2:53 am

sprite

yes, and knowing about the stages of mourning, and to go through them all

2:55 am

sprite

fireflies. Lovely grid today.

2:55 am

grannyrose

WTG SPRITE!!! have sent you gals an email of amazing photos, courtesy of don.

3:01 am

puglet

oh great Rose-thanks

3:02 am

puglet

this grid made me think of riding my horses in pa6-lol

3:03 am

grannyrose

nice, pugs. did you show your horses much?

3:04 am

puglet

I did here locally mostly--I and a friend started up a horse club that is still going

3:05 am

grannyrose

wow, pugs, how amazing.

3:05 am

puglet

I tried a little in the top shows but too much politics --makes it hard for no names to show--if you know what I mean

3:09 am

grannyrose

yeah...i know....it's hard to break into some circles, isn't it?

3:09 am

puglet

yeah, the club is called Backroad Riders--we started it as a club for trailriders then it lead into shows and that is still going on--Since Iam a life long member due to starting it up, Ive been thinking of get back in volved in it

3:09 am

puglet

it is Rose and I dont want to ba a person like what I seen there

3:10 am

grannyrose

oh, pugs, how wonderful. go for it, sweetie.

3:11 am

puglet

I think I will--had so much heat from W, I gave all that stuff up--but I like judging and helping the kids and all that

3:11 am

grannyrose

could you take your sister with you? it might help her.

3:12 am

grannyrose

W can take a long walk off a short pier. pfft :-P

3:12 am

puglet

If she will go I can--I would love to get a team and join in these wagon trailrides

3:12 am

puglet

yeah, Ive let him take too much of me and Iam slowing regaining myself back

3:13 am

grannyrose

yay you pugs.

3:14 am

grannyrose

i hope he doesn't have access to your personal bank accounts, pugs. i would hate to think of you working so hard, and him cleaning you out.

3:14 am

puglet

its scarey Rose to think all that I have let been sapped from my spirit over the years

3:15 am

grannyrose

pugs, darling, and it is being returned to you, tripled.

3:15 am

puglet

thats funny you said that--I am going to go open my own-lol The one we have now was just mine but he is added on that

3:16 am

grannyrose

sweetie, if you lay down now, do you think you could get at least another 30 minutes of shut-eye?

3:17 am

puglet

sometimes I dont feel like that Rose--I take two steps forward and then some days it seems I fall back four

3:17 am

puglet

Rose, I already have slepted 6 hours and got a headach for it

3:18 am

grannyrose

yeah, love. ditto here. but sometimes our backward steps are actually forward. it just takes time to sort them out.

3:18 am

puglet

besides I got just 2 hours before leaving out

3:20 am

puglet

If I didnt have faith Rose--sometimes I dont think I could take one step let alone 2-lol

3:20 am

grannyrose

yuck on the headache...i had hoped you were done with those...even so, pugs, a 30 minute power nap would help you.

3:20 am

puglet

Iam not feeling bad Rose or even tired

3:21 am

grannyrose

now, when you get home from work, take your next med. then 8 hours later take the second one, right?

3:21 am

puglet

well I got to run to town right after work then I will

3:22 am

grannyrose

each day, ease your night time med later, until you get to 9-10pm.

3:22 am

puglet

I should have time to get 2 in before morning time

3:22 am

puglet

okay

3:22 am

grannyrose

okay, love.

3:23 am

puglet

she gave me a huge bottle of them-lol

3:23 am

puglet

your back starting to ease off

3:23 am

grannyrose

*giggle* maybe....

3:24 am

grannyrose

and don't forget to let your doctor know how the med. is effecting you, and that you have to work.

3:24 am

puglet

90 pills in the bottle--so I got plenty--lol

3:24 am

grannyrose

yes, dear. magnesium is wonderful

3:25 am

puglet

I thought she told me they would be a low dosage of 100mgs but these are 300

3:25 am

grannyrose

the magnesium is a natural thing, it doesn't effect my other meds. which is great.

3:25 am

puglet

so between her and the drug store call in she must of changed the mgs

3:26 am

grannyrose

oh, dear, pugs. now the alarm bells are ringing. maybe she meant you to have 100mgs x 3/day. and inadvertently wrote a prescription for 300mgs.

3:26 am

puglet

she told me to go ahead with the pain meds I bought over the counter

3:27 am

puglet

she called it in to the drug store Rose

3:27 am

grannyrose

you really must check with her via a message, dear

3:28 am

puglet

you think? You might be right--somehow I got the wrong mgs

3:28 am

grannyrose

yes, dear. if she said one thing to you, and a different thing to the drugstore...something doesn't add up.

3:29 am

puglet

I will call and ask after work then

3:30 am

puglet

in the office she told me we were going to try a low dosage of 100mgs and see how that works and if I had any trouble to call her and she would up it

3:30 am

puglet

I just thought maybe I misunderstood her

3:31 am

grannyrose

well 100mgs x 3/day is 300mgs. it is an easy mistake to make.

3:32 am

puglet

I dont see how Sprite takes 600mgs

3:32 am

grannyrose

different metabolisms, different requirements.

3:32 am

puglet

well I sure cant function driving or working on these

3:33 am

grannyrose

exactly, dear. i agree with sprite, your body will get used to the new med. but if you can't function....

3:34 am

puglet

I promise I will call and talk to her for sure Rose

3:34 am

puglet

the presses at work are to dangerous to operate being like that

3:35 am

puglet

I wish to keep my hands--lol

3:36 am

grannyrose

so do i dear.

3:36 am

puglet

right now Iam running a press about the size of a full size bed

3:37 am

rururocks

*note to Dr. GOd..we need to change puglet's name to Druglet*

3:38 am

puglet

3:41 am

grannyrose

3:41 am

puglet

3:43 am

rururocks

I had to comment ...:D

3:44 am

puglet

I would share if I could

3:44 am

rururocks

I am kidding. I don't do drugs anymore

3:45 am

grannyrose

until after his total knee replacement, that is...lol

3:46 am

puglet

I know a man that is in prison for sharing his pills and they killed the other guy--Now he is serving 30 years--sad story

3:47 am

rururocks

Johnny Cash?

3:47 am

grannyrose

but did he push the drugs down the other guys throat?

3:47 am

puglet

why isnt yoyo a word

3:48 am

puglet

no Rose he didnt

3:48 am

grannyrose

good question, pugs.

3:48 am

puglet

3:55 am

puglet

I dont think I have his address any more Rose

3:56 am

3:56 am

puglet

no Rose, hes only been in maybe 5 or 6 years

3:56 am

rururocks

3:57 am

grannyrose

well, my guess is that he is where he was the last time you wrote to him.

3:58 am

grannyrose

ruru, how do you know that pugs is still playing with yoyos?

3:58 am

puglet

I will have to search and see if I can find his address

grannyrose

5:47 am

grannyrose

5:47 am

crosshair

crosshair

My high English marks give me a free pass on most of the entrance qualification exams

5:50 am

crosshair

5:51 am

crosshair

5:52 am

grannyrose

5:52 am

crosshair

5:57 am

crosshair

"my beloved is doing well. she still has eye issues but her vision is holding at 20/400. she is the light of my life. We do lots of hiking in the woods together and i show her all nature has to offer and use my bushcraft skills to let her see all the animals... just in case.

5:59 am

6:03 am

grannyrose

now that's small....lol

6:04 am

crosshair

They named it Redwing because, for some reason, large flocks of our red-winged blackbirds call the place home

6:05 am

crosshair

more birds than people;)

6:05 am

grannyrose

ugh...swallowing night-time meds as we speak...it's just after 9pm here.

6:08 am

7:54 am

MollyL

7:54 am

rubyfoo

7:54 am

MollyL

: O was for the apology, not the bee. I'm flabbergasted.

7:55 am

Bourdon is what you call bourbon after you've had a few.

7:58 am

MollyL

cr5 is Welsh

7:58 am

Enomis65

Sorry Ruby about hubby's mood swings, they are hard to deal with

7:58 am

MollyL

It's the instrument our Jane plays

7:58 am

car.eeyore

TY...and it has no vowels.

7:59 am

rubyfoo

It's unpleasant, but not grave

7:59 am

o-o

bipolar

7:59 am

MollyL

Well that depends on who you talk to Car. The Welsh consider one of those letters a vowel.

7:59 am

Enomis65

really Molly? i didn't know that

8:00 am

rubyfoo

no, o-o, just very old

8:01 am

Enomis65

ruby, my husband started taking a natural supplement called 5-HTP (600 mg per day) and I saw a gigantic improvement in his mood swings

8:01 am

MollyL

Mood swings are not always indicators of bi-polar. If so than we would have to call all pregnant and menopausal women bi-polar.

8:01 am

Enomis65

it's serotonin

8:02 am

lbdawger

4:33 pm

Same where I work, no personal use of computers...

4:34 pm

Some offices are more lax about that than others. It also depends on the kind of job you have.

5:30 pm

MollyL

My mind puts the weirdest things in the juke box. I know have Jim Stafford's "I Don't Like Spiders And Snakes" playing

5:32 pm

jaxx7

You would have got on well with my late son, molly. he kept over 300 tarantula, one very venomous centipede and a snake all in his room with him

5:33 pm

jaxx7

They were in tanks - most of the time

5:34 pm

MollyL

And why would I have gotten on well with him?

5:35 pm

jaxx7

I was being ironic. I didn't get on with him as I hate centipedes and this was huge. Add to that, you never knew which spider would escape when.

5:36 pm

jaxx7

it was nothing unusual to open your eyes in the morning and find 8 eyes looking back at you.

5:37 pm

jaxx7

it kept us on our toes, believe me

5:38 pm

Hyphenated, I think

5:39 pm

dan2bit

ah

5:39 pm

jaxx7

I had this conversation earlier. We came to the conclusion that as far as Enable is concerned it is hyphenated. It is a trademark for a spinning toy here in the UK so no yoyo, I'm afraid

5:40 pm

dan2bit

thanks!

5:44 pm

MollyL

No trademark on yo-yos. They have been around for centuries.

5:45 pm
