1:55 am

grannyrose

cooee and g'day from me

1:56 am

rbud

hi, rose! was just about to bail out, well over half and finally nbt/nbs, my usual nightly goal these days. how's tricks?

1:57 am

grannyrose

hello rbud. i am feeling so good. i have had my 3rd magnesium infusion.

1:58 am

rbud

oh, that's working well for you? I think my hubby needs something similar. They gave him some via IV a few months back in the ER and it helped him so much for days... but now he's kind of back to the same old.

1:58 am

grannyrose

i slept....get this....9 1/2 hours last night. i have nearly finished all my weekly chores. just the laundry and ironing to go.

1:58 am

rbud

oh, that's amazing! good for you! :)

1:59 am

grannyrose

i highly advise you to find a doctor willing to give it to him. it's turning my life around.

2:00 am

rbud

they said his magnesium levels were way too low. I've read that it helps with - hmmm, muscles and nerves, is it?

2:00 am

grannyrose

if his likneys are functioning well you could try oral magnesium malate. it is available from over where you live. check out the vitacost site.

2:01 am

grannyrose

yes, rbud. ugh !! * kidneys *

2:01 am

rbud

I suppose the kidneys are okay, they checked out most of that. Said his liver's functioning well, astounding considering the amount he drinks. All beer, but still...

2:02 am

grannyrose

it is very cost effective. i use the tablets in conjunction with the infusions. my levels were so low, i couldn't hold my levels up. now with the infusions, i am starting to cruise.just loving it.

2:03 am

rbud

The malate is easier to absorb? I read that most Mg supplements are not that good.

2:04 am

grannyrose

the malate is made from apples. combined with the magnesium, it is absorbed much better than any other mag. compound.

2:04 am

rbud

and of course he hates most foods with high Mg content.

2:05 am

grannyrose

i had the MIL on it, and for the first time in nearly 40 years she was night-cramps free.

2:05 am

rbud

which may have contributed to the problem, naturally.

2:05 am

grannyrose

and sprite and pugs are both now taking it, with very good results.

2:05 am

rbud

I'll have to hunt some up. Wonder if they have it at the local natural food shop, they have walls of supplements.

2:06 am

grannyrose

they might do, rbud, otherwise go to the vitacost website.

2:17 am

rbud

what's a good size daily dose?

2:19 am

grannyrose

i take 2 at night, and 1 in the morning. and as often as i need it during the day.i.e. if i start to feel nausea, cramps, spasms, pain

2:20 am

rbud

what size pill, though - milligrams?

2:22 am

grannyrose

went to double check. 1250mg tabs.

2:23 am

rbud

thanks! are they big? he has trouble with really large pills. I try to get him to break them in half, but he fusses anyway, lol. Maybe two 625 mg ones would be better than one bigger.

2:23 am

grannyrose

i buy the 180 tablet bottle. but i think there are smaller size bottles available to try before you commit to the larger size.

2:24 am

rbud

at least the blood pressure is under control now, with no apparent side effects, yay!

2:25 am

grannyrose

well they are big and you would have to halve them all. yes the 625mg would be good. i was being cost-effective when i went for the larger dose, larger bottle.

2:26 am

grannyrose

you could buy the larger dose pills, halve them all and put them back into the bottle. if that wasn't too much of an issue.

2:27 am

rbud

I hear that, about cost-effective - a good thing. Big tablets don't bother me much. I take a large daily vitamin most days.

2:27 am

grannyrose

the tablets are not enteric coated, so it wouldn't matter if you broke them up first.

2:27 am

rbud

but he's a real fuss budget sometimes. :P

2:28 am

grannyrose

lol...try telling him what my dad used to say to the mother....put a sock in it beryl...it never failed to amuse me..

2:29 am

grannyrose

only use his name, not my mother's....* giggle*

2:30 am

rbud

LOL! You know, I'm surprised he's be4 so well-behaved about taking his meds, he's never liked the idea of medications. I think he's finally scared enough to cooperate. :)

2:30 am

grannyrose

worzel, mate. please come out of lurking and say hello

2:31 am

grannyrose

ditto with my don. when we were married he had so many complaints. i resolved to help him deal with each and every one of them. so far i have be4 about 90% successful.

2:33 am

grannyrose

oh, and rbud. cardiologist has put me on a very old but effective drug. i have ANKLES again.

2:34 am

rbud

wonderful!!!

2:34 am

rbud

wonder if it's one of the two he's on.

2:35 am

grannyrose

;-) don noticed the other day that my shoes were loose again.

2:36 am

grannyrose

i'm on aldactone and frusemide for the fluid, and atenolol and candesartan for the blood pressure.

2:37 am

rbud

which one is the very old one? just wondering.

2:37 am

grannyrose

i also have a new diagnosis..diastole failure...which means my heart is not pushing enough blood through the ventricles.

2:38 am

rbud

do you take an enteric (sp?) aspirin a day as well?

2:38 am

grannyrose

aldactone...i was on it over 30 years ago when i was having trouble with kidney infections and stones.

2:38 am

grannyrose

yes rbud, i do.

2:39 am

grannyrose

i think frusemide is almost if not more older than aldactone. i remember it from my training days.

2:54 am

grannyrose

excuse me rbud, i need to shout at someone...

2:54 am

grannyrose

WORZEL....YOU COME OUT HERE RIGHT NOW...YOU HEAR YOUNG MAN!!!!

2:57 am

grannyrose

naughty boy....he has probably turned chat off...* sigh * just wait until i get my hands on him....

2:57 am

worzel

hang on hang on!!! gimme 2 mins xx

2:58 am

worzel

right, now then, what's all the fuss?? xx

2:58 am

grannyrose

* giggling * about b..... time.

2:59 am

worzel

well, fancy, my mother talking like that!!! bleeding cheek of it lmao xx

2:59 am

worzel

oh - nearly forgot - gooooooooooood morning fellow Babblers xx

2:59 am

grannyrose

when i call you, you answer,right? i needed to chat.....and now i have forgotten what i wanted to say...

3:00 am

worzel

'tis age, Mum, 'tis age - she is but the cruellest of mistresses . . . lol

3:00 am

grannyrose

what a tease you are, worzel....

3:00 am

grannyrose

right, come over 'ere and say that young man...go on...i dare you !!!

3:01 am

worzel

Yeah, ok, I'm sorry - and I know how the expression goes "You're not too big to go over my knee, young man!" (my, that sounds a bit rood!!)

3:01 am

grannyrose

lolol, so nice to see you, mate. i miss your cheery greeting. how is the lovely princess?

3:02 am

grannyrose

and how are you? bug problem settled ? and what about your bicycle ? any news there?

3:03 am

grannyrose

did you find pixies in the bottom of your garden ?

3:03 am

worzel

She is, as you say, lovely, perfect, gorgeous, radiant! Moi? Well, the psoriasis is permanent, apparently, but to a degree manageable. I have a replacement bicycle (Oh the psoriasis was instead of the bugs lol). As for the garden, well, don't get me started on that!! How are you and papa?? xx

3:03 am

grannyrose

see??!!?? you ignore your old mum, and she ends up with a zillion questions...lol

3:05 am

grannyrose

i amresponding to the magnesium infusions in such a lovely positive way...i feel energised again, and sleeping like a baby...though no need for nappies yet. dad is good, so long as he paces himself on the air-chisel.

3:05 am

worzel

See, now you've got me yapping I ain't put in any words! Mind you, Im not a great fan of these tiddlers - i prefer a nice big one

3:05 am

worzel

grid that is

3:07 am

worzel

So glad to hear you are feeling better, and make sure dad DOES take it easy. It's a bugger trying to use computer at moment 'cos the backlight has gone all dim so I had to order a new computer off Amazon last night. Thankfully I can pay it in installments, otherwise I'd have had to put a popsock on me head and rob a bank!

3:08 am

grannyrose

oh, mate. that is not good...re the computer that is. how old was the last one?

3:09 am

worzel

Well I'm still using it this morning - I can see (just about). Well it's Di's old one (actually it's her OLD old one lol) it's about 10 years old so I guess it's about ready for the knackers yard anyway. Plus it's got four keys missing and a dodgy f so it was only a matter of time lmao

3:10 am

grannyrose

i am still waiting to hear from social services re disability support pension. have now got the medical report complete, and the paperwork re dad's superannuation.

3:11 am

grannyrose

and things are moving ahead for my compensation payout. so, all in all, for me...life is good. just wish i could rub some off on you, mate.

3:11 am

worzel

Hopefully all goes well in those departments for you both xx Superannuation, eh? Now THERE'S a word for the grid. Strangely it's 14 long so wouldn't go

3:12 am

worzel

ahh don't worry about me. D'you know, with this backlight problem, I read that as contraception instead of compensation. Haha, contraception payout !!! silly old worzel lmao

3:13 am

grannyrose

* giggling * honestly wor....i think you need glasses as well.

3:14 am

grannyrose

did pugs email you?

3:14 am

worzel

Yes - Di and myself both need our eyes testing - especially her, silly mare - she reckons I'm handsome. I tell ya, the woman needs help . . .

3:15 am

grannyrose

lolol...she is correct of course...you are my son...how could you be anything but handsome??

3:17 am

worzel

Awww you are too kind Mum - but 'tis true, I have inherited yours and paters handsome gene - and a strange modesty gene too lol

3:17 am

grannyrose

so long as you don't breathe through your navel, and don't have a tail...

3:17 am

grannyrose

in which case.....we disown you...

3:18 am

worzel

no i don't have a tail and don't breath through my navel. Mind you, I'm quite good at talking out me

3:18 am

worzel

yes well . . .

3:19 am

grannyrose

roflol....don't go there, dear....

3:19 am

grannyrose

still giggling....

3:20 am

worzel

Right well I know it's been short but I have to go out and go to the bank now and make sure that my money is up to scratch! I shall have to take my leave of you I'm afraid. It's been gorgeous speaking to you Mum it really has xx

3:21 am

grannyrose

xoxox my dear man. hope you and di have a wonderful weekend.

3:21 am

worzel

thank you mum and you and dad too xxxxxxxx *poof*

3:48 am

sprite

good morning all

3:49 am

grannyrose

{{hugs}} sprite.

3:50 am

sprite

*hugs rose* Hello my darling, how are you today?

3:50 am

grannyrose

i am sooooo good. slept 9 1/2 hours last night with only one interruption.

3:51 am

sprite

oh wow, that is marvellous!

3:51 am

grannyrose

and how are you, dearest? was your night a restful one?

3:52 am

grannyrose

and i have had a lovely chat with worzel too.

3:52 am

sprite

no, night was bad. Then this morning around 6 I was getting sleepy and I thought, wth, am giving in. Then slept another 4.5 hours very well.

3:52 am

grannyrose

oh, wow....sooo nice, dear.

3:53 am

grannyrose

and i have done all my weekly chores except the washing and ironing...i feel great.

3:53 am

sprite

indeed, lol. Prettty intense dreams though. But nothing I can't handle. At least the good guys won.

3:56 am

sprite

wow, very nice, rose. Will you remember to pace yourself, even though you do feel great? Don't overdo it in your enthusiasm.

3:56 am

grannyrose

i realised today....if i get all the weekly chores done on the weekend...i have the rest of the week to play...and now with the magnesium infusions i seem to have the energy am]nd motivation again.

3:57 am

grannyrose

ugh...* and *

3:57 am

sprite

awesome. Just remember to take things in moderation?

3:57 am

grannyrose

i hear you, darling.

3:57 am

sprite

*hugs* Am so very happy for you.

4:01 am

grannyrose

you know ?? that second sleep is so wonderful. it seems to set you up for the day.

4:02 am

grannyrose

did you see worzel was on-line before? i had such a lovely chat.

4:02 am

sprite

it messes up my medicine roster and all, but I don't care. It was worth it :D

4:03 am

grannyrose

i know, hun. i put the 'must have ' meds out separately, beside my bed. with a drink. if i wake between 5 and 6 i take them then.

4:04 am

sprite

smart move

4:04 am

grannyrose

oh, dearest sprite, our cyber bully has attacked crosshair. i am so sad...

4:05 am

sprite

oh dear. He is such a sad person. Can't see a good thing without wanting to ruin it. What happened to crossy?

4:06 am

grannyrose

just words, sprite. crossy is mature enough to stand back...and say...enough is enough.

4:06 am

sprite

yay for our crossy. Am sorry he got nastiness from mr nasty.

4:06 am

grannyrose

i wish the bully's family would see him for what he is...he needs help...desperately...

4:07 am

sprite

he is pathetic, that is for sure

4:08 am

sprite

was it in chog, or by email?

4:09 am

grannyrose

sprite, i really feel such sadness for the bully....he, and all who are a pa4 of his life...need our support and love.

4:09 am

grannyrose

with crossy, via email.

4:10 am

sprite

ugh. What an asshole. Sorry rose, I don't want to support or love it. Just want it to shut the ##()$*(#@ up.

4:11 am

grannyrose

* giggle * sprite....open your heart dear....i am able to move on...my darling girl...please do the same...pour out your love on him...NOTHING can resist love...

4:12 am

rubyfoo

good morning, seetis. I've tkn my e-mai address out of the profile.

4:12 am

grannyrose

i know his words are hateful....let them fall on the rocks...where they cannot take root and flourish.

4:12 am

rubyfoo

What a creep! Do you thinks it's NN?

4:13 am

sprite

oh my heart is open. To you and crossy and all the others it has tried to hurt. And I hear you. But the mother lion in my has been awakened and now all can hear me ROAWRRRRRR!

4:13 am

rubyfoo

that was sweeties* not spelled very well

4:13 am

sprite

don't think it, know it. Hi ruby!

4:13 am

grannyrose

{{ruby}} hugs and love. i know it is NN

4:13 am

rubyfoo

He used to send me tons of spam, all of it commercial and self-promoting

4:14 am

sprite

it is short for nomen nescio... or niceness non-existant.

4:14 am

rubyfoo

I've only had problems with 2 babblers, neither one a troll. Both were open in their animosity but both are gone. Yay

4:14 am

grannyrose

ruby...my dear friend...as i said...pour out your love on him...he needs it.

4:14 am

sprite

you are one of the lucky ones, then, ruby. His other brand of emails is filthiness, towards babblers you know or towards yourself.

4:15 am

rubyfoo

as the French say, Je m'en fiche" or something like that.

4:16 am

rubyfoo

I think it means I don't care -- becoming expert at French slang.

4:16 am

grannyrose

poor crosshair...he was so supportive to the bully...and then the bully dumped a load of filth into crossy's email. and crossy does not need this.

4:16 am

sprite

je m'en fou, maybe? Or another variant, lol.

4:16 am

rubyfoo

hahh

4:17 am

sprite

I hope he has blocked the ass.

4:17 am

grannyrose

crossy said he would...

4:18 am

rubyfoo

There's a commercial (I listen to commercials, they're good Fr lessons) where a girl says, in a very pinched way "Juis myope" instead of Je suis myope. It's too funny

4:18 am

sprite

and ass is short for assistance sorely subscribed

4:19 am

rubyfoo

when I was young and still cute, I quickly learned to say "Fiche moi le paix" or, worse. The followers' jaws would drop and they'd peel off

4:19 am

sprite

hehehe

4:19 am

rubyfoo

Later, when John was 12, they'd follow him and I'd say the same thing. It always worked

4:22 am

grannyrose

okaaaay...you two have lost moi...my school french did not cover this.

4:22 am

rubyfoo

nor did mine. It was just a necessity and I learned fast!

4:22 am

sprite

we are done, rose, lol. Back to english. Revenons a nos moutons ;)

4:23 am

grannyrose

naughty sprite...and ruby...but not really...

4:24 am

rubyfoo

It's great to know bad words in more than one language And Sprite probably knows them in 6!!

4:24 am

sprite

hehehe if cussing were a subject on schools I'd score high :D

4:25 am

grannyrose

*giggle* ruby...ye4 she probably does...and who are you all callig a sheep??

4:25 am

grannyrose

*calling*

4:26 am

rubyfoo

Here they say "It's not your onions" if it's none of your biz, usually when mothers are talking about their children's lives

4:26 am

sprite

hehehe :) Let's go back to our sheep... or in other words, lets go back to the subject at hand and stop messing around

4:26 am

rubyfoo

what's wrong with messing around. I actually miss it.....

4:26 am

grannyrose

*explosive laughter * like the grid ??

4:26 am

sprite

lol

4:27 am

sprite

grid? Grid? Ohhhhh here it is.

4:27 am

rubyfoo

I was just about to say that, sprite, almost snap

4:27 am

sprite

:)

4:28 am

rubyfoo

I have to go, Mr. Sweetness awaits....

4:28 am

rubyfoo

see you later, kids

4:28 am

sprite

bye ruby, tell him hi from me :)

4:30 am

grannyrose

ruby...xoxox

4:32 am

sprite

hah, found the 9 at last

4:33 am

grannyrose

omg...on the tv...a man asked if the store sold bullet-proof vests...and the salesperson asked where are you going?...the man said...on a date...lol

4:33 am

grannyrose

4:33 am

10:43 am

i still have that jingle in my head from my days at UVA grad school....

10:44 am

MollyL

What is it with jingles? They seem to get permanently stamped on your brain.

10:44 am

penquis

well they are short and often repeated...

10:46 am

MollyL

So are math equations and they never stayed stuck
: )

10:47 am

penquis

ah...but music helps you remember....my brother learned his prayers and catechism responses by singing them to the tune of commercial jingles...true story....

10:47 am

doseffing

... but they're abstract ... you can always imagine the hamburger that goes with the jingle

10:47 am

penquis

my mother warned him not to sing them to the nuns...to sing in his head and just say the words...

10:49 am

MollyL

That's funny Pen. That is like how you can sing every Emily Dickinson poem to "The Yellow Rose Of Texas"

10:49 am

penquis

yes, exactly....

10:49 am

penquis

music and odors often trigger memories...

10:50 am

Ah, now we venture into the quirky aspects of the brain

well it is my business, so to speak... ;o)

Soodle

Quiet here this evening! Hopefully most Babblers are whooping it up elsewhere.

4:32 pm

MollyL

Hi Soodle. My whooping it up budget dried up and blew away.

4:33 pm

Soodle

LOL Molls, I can barely manage a Wh. The OOPING has long since disappeared!

4:37 pm

MollyL

I come here to see how other people are whooping it up. Like The Traveling Babblers...distant cousins of Traveling Wilburys.

4:42 pm

Soodle

Well, I had a minor whoop earlier on this evening. I dropped into my local, had a couple of beers with the usual suspects....Nobody died, got married, got pregnant, got anybody else pregnant... pretty much of a non-whoop, really. :-(

4:43 pm

MollyL

Now, now, it's always a whoop when you have a few with the usual suspects. Maybe not a big whoop, but a whoop nonetheless. Good for you.

4:45 pm

Soodle

Yup. And there's always something to laugh about! I met a few friends who I hadn't seen in a while and we had a right old craic!

4:46 pm

MollyL

See, it's the little things that count. Plus, you have to save all your whooping for your big trip to see the chilluns.

4:48 pm

Soodle

I bought a new suitcase this afternoon in honour of the epic voyage! By the time I ut

4:49 pm

Soodle

By the time I put all my footwear, hair accoutrements and make-up into it, there will be little room left for anything else. :-(

4:50 pm

Soodle

Like the kitchen sink etc... I have never mastered the art of travelling light...

4:51 pm

Well, when we are rich, the idea will be "if we need it, we'll buy it when we get there".
