3:55 am

sprite

rose that is so awesome! So you had a nice lunch too, with Don?

3:58 am

grannyrose

oh, sprite, yes, hun. i was so hungry by then. i had an egg and bacon roll. the roll was freshly baked by the baker's next door to the eatery. and i splashed out and had a double chocolate milkshake. only it was made with so much ice-cream it was almost a thick shake.

3:58 am

4:01 am

rubyfoo

He is making me crazy!

4:01 am

grannyrose

sprite, the whole thing is to de-sensitise me, and give me back control of my body temp.

4:02 am

sprite

it should, yes

4:02 am

grannyrose

ruby, maybe it hasn't shown up yet?? it depends on when he did that.

4:02 am

rubyfoo

Rose, you would have been miserable with the weather we've been having as the temp goes up and down, 5 - 10 degreees, all day

4:02 am

sprite

ok rose, then I hope the cardiologist will give you the all clear

4:02 am

5:42 am

grannyrose

5:43 am

Wolvie

oh no- i thought you said it was part of your physical- sorry i misunderstood- i hope you feel better soon sukee

5:43 am

sukee

This is a reasonable new clinic, you would think all the equipment would be accessible.

5:43 am

sukee

It was, the doctor was pressing around and it was a little uncomfortable. I'm not worried about anything.

5:44 am

Wolvie

brb- need to stroll the pooch

5:45 am

grannyrose

i think that is okay, sukee. it would be nice to find out why you feel uncomfortable.

5:45 am

Oh well, it was good practice for holding it in. It was hard at the end but I managed :)

5:46 am

sukee

Well, I have to run. Have to finish getting ready. Have a great day.

The old farts who created the Enable word list wouldn't know, they don't recognize "nooner". Probably because they never had one.

Would religious dysfunction be: if you don't believe in our ways, we will cut your head off?

Nice sentiment Ruby. Sometimes it's hard to know what to say. No matter how many "supportive" things you hear, you often still feel like you are walking your hard path alone.

Thanks tabby got the sc6

2:42 pm

22 points for a 5 is a clue in itself

2:43 pm

tabbycat

I know, Molly, just didn't see it.

2:44 pm

MollyL

That was a hint for someone who didn't already have it

2:45 pm

Marc Freeman

Anyone have the stats for the last two 6's?

2:46 pm

Jillyjill

2:47 pm

ChrissieDee

sc6/27 and sc6/24

2:50 pm

Marc Freeman

I have sc6/27, st6/36, and wa6/30 so the last two is sc6/24 and sw6/33 correct?

2:51 pm

Hi sue

2:51 pm

uusue2

hi chrissie!

2:53 pm

ChrissieDee

So sorry to read your update sue. Hugs to you both x

2:53 pm

uusue2

thanks, chrissie, we are trying to stay positive

2:56 pm

ChrissieDee

Don't mean to pull you down, but I think the word palliative is scarier than the word cancer. Praying for a miracle - they do happen.

2:56 pm

Jillyjill

Hello uusue, from a nursing perspective, there is a difference between chemo being palliative and being referred for palliative care. I know it is hard to hear they don't feel he can be cured though. But remember, each is an individual.

2:57 pm

uusue2

no, don't worry, chrissie, we are already pretty scared. But they don't mean they're just trying to ease his pain; they really are fighting the cancer. So we are hopeful.

2:57 pm

ChrissieDee

That's good

2:58 pm

uusue2

Hi, Jill, I know that, and we are somewhat comforted by it - it's still a big adjustment, though, to go from no sign of cancer to palliative treatment in a week or two

2:58 pm

uusue2

anyway, fireworks!

2:58 pm

Jillyjill

I know, but it truely is that the treatment is to battle back the cancer!

2:59 pm

Jillyjill

WooT WooT WooT uusue!!

2:59 pm

ChrissieDee

Yay, congrats sue :)

3:00 pm

uusue2

I do like these smaller grids :-)

flashing lights, especially in conjunction with seeing floaters, is a sign you need to see the eye doctor.

Third graders are wonderful people. AND... I am working the same school as some of the local babblers. So my reputation sort of preceded me. *sigh*
