1:46 am
puglet
How are things with you
1:47 am
grannyrose
not too bad, still a little stiff in the knee from the new exercise. but on the whole, doing okay. and you, my dear?
1:47 am
puglet
what kind of exercise are you doing
1:49 am
grannyrose
it was a side-ways lunge, in the pool. it bends the knee, and when you lunge in the opposite direction, it gives you a nice stretch out along the whole leg.
1:49 am
puglet
Iam a little upset. My sister's sugar was so high last night it wouldnt even show on the monitor, just said HI--:(
1:49 am
puglet
pulling it -isnt it
1:49 am
grannyrose
oh, dear!! W been feeding her again?
1:50 am
puglet
Rose, I dont know what is going on--I need this job for my own sanity--I just dont know what Iam going to do right now
1:51 am
grannyrose
is there anywhere she can go, while you are at work?
1:52 am
puglet
not really Rose--no one wants to mess with the mental stuff
1:53 am
puglet
of course with the sugar like that its throwing the mental state our of whack too
1:53 am
grannyrose
have you asked around, or heard about a support group in your area?
1:54 am
puglet
we have nothing like that here in this small area--nursing home is about it
1:54 am
grannyrose
what about the social worker at the hospital? could they help you find somewhere safe for her to be?
1:55 am
puglet
I will ask as soon as I can on that
1:55 am
grannyrose
because that is what you need...a safe environment for her, so that you can work.
1:56 am
grannyrose
try taking that tack, dear. work from sister's angle, of safety.
1:56 am
puglet
I dont know how high one of those monitors goes do you
1:56 am
puglet
okay, I will
1:57 am
grannyrose
not sure. what brand, model is your sister's machine? i will look it up for you.
1:58 am
puglet
its a free style lite
2:01 am
grannyrose
okay, according to the web site, if blood glucose above 500 it will give a HI reading.
2:02 am
puglet
thanks Rose---I will check it before leaving and see if it registers then
2:02 am
grannyrose
forgive me for asking, but were your sister's hands clean when you did her BSL?
2:02 am
puglet
we use al. swabs
2:03 am
grannyrose
as in, had she washed them specifically before you did the check?
2:03 am
puglet
I know this heat can cause a slight rise but not that much
2:04 am
grannyrose
ahhh, suggestion, wash hands and dry thoroughly. use alcohol wipe, but make certain all alcohol has evaporated before doing test. it only takes a minute to evaporate fully.
2:04 am
puglet
no, other then using the alcohol swab--but she did wash just a little while before doing so
2:05 am
puglet
okay, Rose
2:05 am
grannyrose
don't blow on the site, wave your hand to create a breeze over the site.
2:06 am
puglet
alright, will do --wash hands and then do the other
2:07 am
grannyrose
yes, hun. that way you know you have done everything to eliminate contaminants at site.
2:09 am
grannyrose
i am praying like fury here. i hope her BSL is better this morning.
2:10 am
puglet
me too---she is just out of it with the real world right now
2:10 am
puglet
was Sprite on yesterday? And if so, is all well with her
2:11 am
puglet
the new band was so much cooler then the one I got from my sister
2:14 am
grannyrose
yes sprite was here and sorry to have missed you. sends her love and hugs
2:15 am
grannyrose
sprite had a bad night in that her brain was doing 150mph, she just couldn't get to sleep. there was a row with the boy child. all resolved, but the effects lingered on. poor girl.
2:16 am
puglet
are you working tomorrow
2:16 am
puglet
teenagers! I had trouble with sleep myself last night
2:17 am
grannyrose
lolol, i should think so, pugs, the new band being cooler. btw, liz just sent some new pics for us to see. yes, dear, tomorrow and the day after as well.
2:17 am
puglet
good! yeah, the belt I got from sister is more like a sweat band to lose fat--lol
2:18 am
grannyrose
send it over here, i need to lose the fat, and i need to get warm. my goodness it's cold. fine time for my FM to settle.
2:19 am
puglet
LOL--now I sent why you have a little extra
2:21 am
puglet
brb---going to go look at Liz's pics
2:23 am
puglet
nice pics!
2:24 am
puglet
my sun poisoning is starting to dry up
2:25 am
grannyrose
that's good news, hun. are you moisturising your skin?
2:25 am
puglet
it almost looks just like poison ivy that someone gets
2:26 am
puglet
I didnt yesterday but will this morning
2:28 am
grannyrose
you poor thing. must have been uncomfortable.
2:29 am
puglet
not too bad--its just itchy
2:29 am
grannyrose
ugh....
2:29 am
puglet
do you ever get it
2:31 am
grannyrose
no, i get sunburn. where the whole exposed skin goes red. on4 i had it so bad on my legs, i was almost admitted with 3rd degree burns. not quite, though
2:33 am
puglet
I do that too but I try to not get that way-------you must of been in misery--yuck
2:34 am
puglet
I have had sunburns to where I had chills and vomit
2:34 am
puglet
the sun does not like me--lol
2:34 am
grannyrose
we had gone to the beach with a friend in tow, he was a little under the weather, drink-wise. he wandered off, and when he hadn't come back, i started to fret, that he had laid down on the sand and fallen asleep.
2:35 am
puglet
I hope you didnt have to go to work like that
2:35 am
grannyrose
i walked the full length of the beach, at the water's edge looking for him. it turned out, he decided to go home, and did just that, without telling us.
2:36 am
puglet
oh thats awful! Did you tell him a mouth full
2:36 am
grannyrose
no, pugs, i didn't work. i couldn't stand up without fainting.
2:37 am
puglet
that was a bad burn Rose---I feel for you
2:37 am
grannyrose
i was too sick at the time, and later thought not to disrurb his wife, who was my best friend at the time.
2:37 am
puglet
I sure wouldnt go to the beach with him again-lol
2:38 am
grannyrose
lol....*disturb*
2:38 am
puglet
oh that does make it bad
2:39 am
puglet
I understand sometimes you just got to suck it in when friends are concern
2:39 am
grannyrose
he turned out to be a bad piece of work. when she left him and divorced him, i nearly cheered.
2:40 am
puglet
what has happen to her now
2:40 am
puglet
he sounds like it no more then you said about him here
2:41 am
grannyrose
* sigh * she died 15 years ago. cervical cancer....she got too busy to have her regular PAP smear. and found out too late.
2:42 am
puglet
ahh sorry--I have never had one of those or a mam.
2:42 am
grannyrose
she was only 45 at the time. her boys were fully grown, so that was a blessing in one way.
2:43 am
puglet
she was really young :(
2:43 am
grannyrose
then my friend robyn died of breast cancerabout 5 years ago. so, please....don't let anything happen to your sweet self or sprite.
2:44 am
puglet
I will try not too-lol Mine will be more likely from stress if anything
2:45 am
grannyrose
robyn was 47. but she left 2 adorable teenage girls, and a husband. he died a year later, he ruptured an abdominal aortic aneurysm.
2:45 am
puglet
Have you had any word from Joso,Zoom or our broken up couple
2:46 am
grannyrose
and this wicked old woman is left on earth....but then i wouldn't have found you all.
2:46 am
puglet
thats how my father died too----what happen to the girls
2:46 am
puglet
you are far from wicked--I would probably fit the mold more so than you
2:47 am
grannyrose
heard from diane. she is desperately unhappy. appears she has been talking to sprite. i emailed worzel, just in the hopes he may find an internet connection soon.
2:47 am
puglet
I did too and I just dont get it, he talked so well of her--its just sad
2:48 am
puglet
I so hope they can work things out
2:48 am
grannyrose
the girls are living with her sister and her husband. i feel for them, as their youngest had just flown the coop, and they were heaving that sigh of relief which comes when you find yourself alone for the first time in years.
2:49 am
puglet
that had to be so hard on them, losing both parnets so close together like that and in their teen years too
2:49 am
grannyrose
pugs, we don't have to ubderstand, hun. just offer support and loving care to them both.
2:50 am
puglet
yes I do Rose or try to any way
2:50 am
grannyrose
the youngest is an incredible young woman. at the time she said...God never gives us anything we cannot bear.
2:51 am
puglet
thats really true but sometimes it dont seem so, does it
2:51 am
grannyrose
no it doesn't sweetie
2:53 am
puglet
well, dont look like Sprite is going to show, I need to shower and then will try checking back and see if I catch her, if not tell her hi and hugs and love to you and take care at work
2:57 am
grannyrose
thanx, my darling. enjoy your day as best you can.
3:18 am
sprite
good morning all
3:23 am
grannyrose
hellooooo sprite, my dear. pugs sends her love and hugs.
3:24 am
sprite
aw darn it, just missed her :( Hello my dear friend rose.
3:28 am
sprite
had trouble waking up this morning... one of those weird dreams where you can barely walk and everything feels like you are tied in rubber bands.
3:29 am
grannyrose
ugh, you poor sweetie.
3:30 am
sprite
nah not too bad, as dreams go. No horror. Just unpleasant. And how are you today, dear rose?
3:31 am
grannyrose
still a little stiff from the new exercise. but doing okay. temp's have plummeted here. fine time for my FM to settle. i am freezing my buns off.
3:32 am
sprite
*giggles* who'dathunk you'd miss it, huh :D
3:33 am
grannyrose
lolol, i know. have begged pugs to send me that band from her sister. could do woth losing a bit of weight, and get warm at the same time...
3:39 am
sprite
the boyo was rude again yesterday, to Rob... our girl had it out with the ex-friend and things have exploded... am gonna take her out for dinner tonight, and then singing lesson. Let the boy fend for himself for on4, soup and bread available.
3:40 am
grannyrose
nice, sprite. i'm with you and the girl...poor kid...
3:40 am
sprite
she is weathering it very very well. Takes good care of her needs. Am so proud of her.
3:41 am
grannyrose
good that rob copped it all for himself...boyo will learn a good lesson in male hierarchy.
3:42 am
sprite
indeedydeed. Rob has a work thing this afternoon, with bbq. After, he goes straight to canoe club and stays there.
3:44 am
grannyrose
typical male way of dealing with an issue. hide away, and it will resolve itself. i really feel rob needs to assert himself as the male head of the household, and put his foot down, firmly, while wearing army boots. boyo will never learn.
3:45 am
sprite
I couldn't agree more. Sigh.
3:51 am
grannyrose
oh, Lord. don just sent me a link to some auto corrects. am gonna try and send them to you....tooo funny
3:51 am
sprite
oh please do! I love those kind of things.
3:53 am
grannyrose

3:59 am
sprite
roflol I love the hamsta :D

4:00 am
sprite

4:01 am
grannyrose

4:02 am
sprite

4:04 am
sprite

4:05 am
grannyrose

4:05 am
grannyrose
WTG SPRITE!!!
4:05 am
sprite
oh dear, that is bad
4:06 am
sprite
darling, I am off. Doesn't look like pug will check back in after her shower. A big *hug* for you and Don, and thanks for the company and the laughs.
4:06 am
grannyrose
our main river, the Yarra, has flooded in the middle of our capital.
4:07 am

am in tears here. 5 years ago i lost my dearest friend to breast cancer. i'm watching a program in which a young woman is trying to decide whether or not to have a bilateral mastectomy. her grandmother and mother have both had breast cancer. the hard part for me, my friend sat in my loungeroom and wept because she didn't want the second course of chemotherapy...and i didn't have the guts to say to her, for goodness sake woman, have it.
4:52 am
Marc Freeman
Everyone has to make their own choices and chemo doesn't always work. Also, it is quite debilitating. I had two relatives where it was the chemo not the cancer that killed them. You just never know.
4:53 am
grannyrose
thanx marc. i needed to hear that.
4:55 am
grannyrose
no-one has said that to me. maybe now, i can lay this demon to rest. thanx, again.
4:56 am
Marc Freeman
Please do, she is at peace you should be to.
4:56 am
jaxx7
Rose, don't feel guilty. Your friend made her own decision. Had you told her to go for the chemo, her quality of life would have been impaired and the outcome might well have been the same. There are a lot of ifs and buts there and only the person suffering knows whether they can tolerate any further pain. You listened and I am sure that was more comfort to her.

Have 20 minutes to fine it! Found the co7 but can't persuade it to lengthen!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY JUDI!!!

Gah! Outed! Thanks, Molly.
9:00 am
Judi
Uh, the icon is a bit much.
9:00 am
MollyL
Alleyn, you are adding ER to the wrong co7
9:01 am
MollyL
Really? Wait until the male strippers arrive at your office.
9:01 am
Alleyn58
Ah! I don't have the co36
9:02 am
Judi
Oh. I have no problem with male strippers!
9:03 am
Judi
Just make sure they aren't dressed like cops. Cause I work with cops every day.
9:03 am
MollyL
I think women age gracefully. (Mimi and I disagree about this.)
9:04 am
MollyL
My request included a "no cop" clause.
9:05 am
Judi
I'm aging gracefully. I think never having had children has reduced my grey hair count significantly.
9:08 am
Judi
Have I mentioned that I"m getting new garage doors for my birthday. ** SMUG **
9:09 am
Scrabbler
I just got a new garage door, AND an opener which I did not have. Weehaaaa!
9:10 am
Judi
WHaaaat? You had a manual garage door?? How 19th century.
9:11 am
MollyL
Judi, as I said to my friend (whose birthday is also today and he is getting new windows installed) you have just GOT to stop living like such a party animal.
9:12 am
Judi
Ha! That's for sure. My needs come second to the money pit (I mean the house).

I find it the ironic like ten that the orginal draft of Dylan's "Like A Rolling Stone" (a song about someone with no money) could yield over 2 million in auction.
9:17 am
MollyL
Or just ironic like ten
9:17 am
Scrabbler
When I had my garage built almost 20 years ago I could not afford an opener, so, yes, I was doing the manual process all of these years. An electric opener is such a treat!
9:18 am
Judi
Our current doors are original to the house - which was built in 1985. Wooden panels. They are rotting. Such a charming look. Eesh.
9:19 am
Scrabbler
It is so quiet when my new door opens. My old one was rusting and warped and noisy.
9:19 am
Scrabbler
I finally found co9. TY.
9:19 am
Judi
Wanted to get the driveway re-paved, but the budget would only allow for one improvement at a time.
9:21 am
MollyL
Scrabbler and Judi, the dangerous party girls
9:21 am
Judi
Let the garage door opening races begin!
9:23 am
MollyL
Driveway party at Judi's (date to be determined)
9:23 am
Scrabbler
That is me! Wild risk-taker!
9:24 am
Judi
That's me... paving the way to future sin!
9:24 am
MollyL
Ah, you crazy go nuts girls
9:25 am
Scrabbler
Advice please: I am thinking about getting a home security system now. I am so paranoid after the theft of my purse from my car.
9:25 am
Scrabbler
Yay, Judi.
9:25 am
MollyL
I've been happy with ADP
9:26 am
MollyL
Yeah, sorry, typo
9:26 am
Scrabbler
ADP is another company. I think they do paychecks.
9:26 am
Judi
Unless there has been an uptick in crime in your neighborhood, I wouldn't bother, Scrabbs. They are over-priced and more of a nuisance than anything. I recommend a "Beware of Dog" sign and a good motion-sensing flood light that lights up the driveway/street like the Las Vegas strip.
9:27 am
MollyL
They do and I deal with them all the time. Workfreudian slp.
9:27 am
Scrabbler
And I live in a rural area so the police response time could be 20 min, or even more.
9:28 am
Judi
Our City (my employer) just implemented ADP. Major pain in the ass.
9:29 am
Judi
Scrabbs - there is also a self-install, wireless security system called "Simply Safe". Google it. They shill it on talk radio and it gets really good consumer reviews.
9:29 am

Hello everyone
9:29 am
Mary
I also have ADT - for about 10 years. Very satisfied. But the cost is about $35 a month. every time they up the monthly rate I complain and they waive it?
9:32 am
Scrabbler
See, I don't know if the cost is worth it to give me peace of mind.
9:33 am
MollyL
Scrabbler, if you live in an area where there is no police response for that long, anyone thinking of breaking into your home knows that. I'd go with better locks and a baseball bat.
9:34 am
Judi
FYI, Scrabbler: Home alarms are way, way down on the priority list for cops. A 20 minute response time would be stellar. The response time for an alarm in my neighborhood would be about 2-3 hours.
9:36 am
Scrabbler
I think I will get more motion-sensor lights. I have two on the garage, I should get them all around the house. Then the wildlife will turn them on.
9:36 am
Judi
The best advice to avoid theft from your vehicle is to not leave tempting property - such as purses, electronic devices, EZ Pass transponders, ect. in plain sight. Shut them in your glove box or trunk and lock your vehicle doors.
9:36 am
MollyL
I imagine response time for police is low priority because so many people accidentally set their systems off on their own.
9:37 am
Judi
Exactly, Molly. 98% of home alarms are false alarms.
9:38 am
Scrabbler
My purse was in a backpack on the front seat. I usually take it with me when I hike or kayak so I am mad at myself.
9:39 am
MollyL
A friend of mine has a home security system that is not hooked up to EMT calls. It just goes off if someone opens a window or door. He figures the alarm sound is enough to send the a-holes running. I agree.
9:40 am
Judi
Okay, kids. I'm off to do random acts of work and try to justify my paycheck. See y'all tomorrow! *POOF*
9:40 am
MollyL
Throws birthday confetti and streamers at Judi

if a home security system helps you sleep at night, I recommend it - I consider it a modest insurance policy - around $36 a month -
9:57 am
Scrabbler
Buon giorno, JBV!
9:58 am
Scrabbler
That is how I am thinking about it, JBV.

Hi SS. Is that Easton in your pic? Seems like he was just born.

yeah, getting to the halfway point is fun with a small grid (usually) but then it stops being fun . . .
11:04 am

There are people who seem to really like small grids, so this is a good day for them.
