good thanks Rose, all is well

1:08 am

grannyrose

my new med is such a blessing. even if i do wake during the night i am able to fall straight back asleep.

1:09 am

flosey

very glad to hear that rose

1:09 am

flosey

that's amazing, to get back to sleep so readily after being wakened

1:10 am

grannyrose

i go in as a day case for 10 hours on the 24th of this month. and the workcover agent has already approved doc's request for the pain patches for my knee. * big grin *

1:10 am

flosey

that's great, Rose

1:11 am

flosey

seems to me the patches hit the right spot much faster than taking pills

1:11 am

grannyrose

darling, i finally feel like i am getting my life back. when i awake in the morning, i am actually capable of making a decision and follow through and get a long-standing task done.

1:12 am

flosey

doesn't that make you feel sooo good!

1:12 am

flosey

so normal, at last

1:13 am

grannyrose

* smiling * yeah. i used to hit the floor running so to speak, at about 6-7am every day. fast getting that back.

1:13 am

flosey

wonderful news

1:14 am

grannyrose

now if we could only sort your he4 out so that you can fall asleep deeply and beautifully. but if we do, i will have to email you...lol...and that's not really a problem.

1:15 am

flosey

that would be heavenly, Rose

1:16 am

flosey

aha, finally got the he7

1:16 am

grannyrose

i cannot believe an anti-epileptic med could change my life so much. i so wish we could find something to help you.

1:17 am

flosey

yes, something other than sleeping pills

1:17 am

flosey

1:18 am

grannyrose

* giggle * i was nearly ready to slap my gp when she said ... well as you get older you need less sleep...and im sitting there saying, if i need less sleep why do i feel so tired during the day?

1:20 am

flosey

you'll have to write her a letter and post date it so she'll read it when she's 60 - wonder if she

1:20 am

flosey

would rememeber

flosey

1:23 am

grannyrose

1:27 am

good morning

3:54 am

rubyfoo

Is anybody here?

3:56 am

grannyrose

i am darling. how are you coping? how is burt?

4:00 am

rubyfoo

Burt came through the surgery well, but was in recovery for hours. He said that he was all fixed and could come home today. I spoke with his surgeon this AM and he said tomorrow or even Sat., so then Burt and I had the usual fight. He hates being there, but the longer he stays, the better for e as there is no way I will be able to get him up without help and I think that post-hernia surgery, walking is important and I can't risk re-opening my pleural tear. (selfish moi!0

4:01 am

rubyfoo

Neighbors are being wonderful - bringing me soup, driving me around.

4:02 am

grannyrose

not at all selfish, tu. glad that burt is through it all. but do not allow hospital to discharge him until he is fully independent, ruby. you simply cannot take the risk, with either of you.

4:03 am

sandyloo

hi guys

4:03 am

grannyrose

it is a constant battle i have here. don has a torn tendon in his shoulder, and everyone expects him to be capable of all sorts of things.

4:03 am

grannyrose

g'day sandy

4:04 am

rubyfoo

Hello Sandy. I owe you a long letter, but probably not today. Thi has been a tough winter

4:04 am

sandyloo

sorry to hear burt is in the wars, just make sure that you take care of yourself and hi rose , i have been playing lately but not chatting as i find myself getting too addicted

4:04 am

grannyrose

ruby, list all the things burt was capable of doing for himself before his surgery. take it into the hospital and tell them this is what you expect of him when he comes home.

4:06 am

sandyloo

you both sound like you are in the wars - remember my daughter Nicky? She is the one with the fused shoulder- the plate broke through her skin and she had to have it removed and now has to have the whole refusion again , so I guess we are all struggling against something

4:07 am

grannyrose

oh, sandy!! what a wretched thing to happen!! your poor daughter. i feel for her, and you

4:07 am

sandyloo

Ruby, can you get some help in the home? We have an organisation here called Silverchain do you have anything like that?

4:07 am

rubyfoo

who ever said life would get easier.....poor Nicky

4:08 am

sandyloo

Silver chain nurses come and will bath the patient and administer care ect. We also have provision for cleaners to come and help in the house and for meals to be delivered

4:09 am

sandyloo

Yes poor nicky.... just got to get on with it I guess.

4:11 am

sandyloo

How is the weather for you Rose, are you in the path of any cyclones?

4:11 am

grannyrose

it's hard to watch our kids so traumatised either emotionally or physically. i pray you keep strong too, sandy. how long before the next lot of surgery?

4:12 am

sandyloo

About six weeks , it is hard as she is up in Perth with my mother and I am down here in Margaret River but still I just go with the flow as I guess we all do. I try not to focus on the bad

4:13 am

grannyrose

a bit of a hike, but doable if you are needed. how old is Nicky?

4:15 am

sandyloo

she is 40 now , all this has really ruined her life but I keep telling her that life has so much to offer you just need to reach out

4:16 am

sandyloo

On the up side I have a little grand daughter who is 8 months old and we all love her to bits

4:18 am

grannyrose

sweetie, i am so sorry she has to go through this. and yes, that is one way to look at it. but it is hard to be positive when you feel like hell. oh?? did i know this?? i don't think so...i try to keep tabs on all new grannies. it is so lovely to be a granny. i adore it.

4:19 am

sandyloo

I feel bad that I haven't chatted for ages but I do keep my eye on you all. I have to go and feed the horses and do their waters, collect the eggs and water the vege garden and get the alpacas out of the horse paddock ...la la la ...Keep safe and take care - give burt a big hug from me Ruby! Lovely to talk I will try and chat a bit more often so bye for now

4:19 am

grannyrose

xoxox sandy.

4:20 am

rubyfoo

I haven't been chatting a lot,just my usual whining, thee past few months.

4:21 am

rubyfoo

But the flowers are starting to come yup and things are starting to get leaves SoSpring must be coming, after all.

4:21 am

4:22 am

rubyfoo

Judi

Just got back from Arizona yesterday. Gorgeous warm weather. Took in some spectacular hiking. And the tequila wasn't bad either.

12:01 pm

That's my alma mater, Judi. Hellgate High School. They are seeded 1st in the state boys BB tournament.

I'll need meds if they lose....

12:02 pm

rururocks

spring training judi?

12:02 pm

Judi

Ah. Hellgate is an unusual name for a highschool. Let me guess. Their logo is a devil.

12:02 pm

harpjane

Nope. Hellgate Knights. Named after a landmark in the area. Look it up!

12:03 pm

Judi

Nah. We were just there on coincidence, ru. Could care less about baseball.

12:03 pm

Judi

The Knights of Hellgate. I think that was a Monty Python skit. ;-p

12:04 pm

harpjane

Well, I was wearing a hat in the hot sun, if that makes you feel better.

12:05 pm

rururocks

12:11 pm

Judi

Was chatting with a sales girl in a shop and she asked if we were there for spring training. When I told her no, she said, "I don't get that whole cactus league, grapefruit league thing. What does that mean, anyway?" Amazingly, she wasn't even blonde.

12:18 pm

rururocks

I don't get the grapefruit thing either .. too pithy for me

12:22 pm

Off to do some chores. Later! *POOF*

Good evening my friends:)

7:25 pm

crosshair

And now it is time for Crossy's tidbit of the day!! (I promise, only two tidbits in a day; one in the morning and one at night...well, perhaps with the odd inspiration quote tossed in... and maybe a dirty limerick or two if I am in my cups one evening, but that is it)...

7:25 pm

crosshair

More Monopoly money is printed in a year, than real money throughout the world.

7:27 pm

jaxx7

and most of it is British Â£s.

7:28 pm

jaxx7

Glad to see the tidbits are back. Way to go, crossy

8:23 pm

crosshair

We have yet to have our first rain of the season.

8:24 pm

crosshair

been in the plusses yesterday and today for the first time, but back down to minus 8c for tonight

8:25 pm

crosshair

I cannot remember the last time it rained.. probably some ice cold rain last October I would imagine

8:25 pm

penquis

hello...

8:25 pm

crosshair

Howdy, penquis

8:25 pm

penquis

aloy, do you play at WordSplay?....someone with your name does...

8:25 pm

crosshair

I cannot wait till we get out first good thunderstorm!

8:26 pm

Aloyisius

ooch.. our ground is so dry.. hi penquis.. are you kidding.. someone has the name "aloy" or aloyisius?

8:27 pm

Aloyisius

aah.. yeah! harder rain.. hope it keeps up

8:28 pm

Aloyisius

rats, seemed to be a passing cloudburst :-(

8:28 pm

penquis

aloyisius or something close to that....

8:30 pm

Aloyisius

h'mm, no.. I did "Words for Friends".. forgot my handle.. I just stick to Babble and Scrabble and FB and email and that is about all I can handle in a day without becoming glued to my chair

8:32 pm

Aloyisius

get so many requests re games, but I think the requesters get points for that, so I don't mind.. I just don't respond

8:33 pm

Aloyisius

wahoo.. another cloudburst.. sorry if I'm boring you, but I am so delighted

8:34 pm

penquis

no problem....i was just curious when i saw your name there....

8:35 pm

Aloyisius

of course.. maybe I will check that site out.. do you play?

8:39 pm

crosshair

Do not worry about rejoicing the rain. You should see all of us Canucks on the first true day of spring. We are all outside in shorts(even though it is only 10C) standing still with our faces upturned to the sun, and tracking its arc across the sky like desperate sunflowers seeking nourishment.

8:40 pm

Aloyisius

(-: I can understand that, crossy!

8:41 pm

penquis

yes, i play at WordSplay....i have only seen two names that i recognize there...

8:45 pm

penquis

it's very different from here....everyone plays boggle at once in a timed round....

8:47 pm

Aloyisius

sounds interesting.. I noted the site

8:47 pm

Aloyisius

but like I said, I'm hesitant to get into anything more that takes up computer time!

9:06 pm

crosshair

No wonder it took me so long to find the last W word I needed. It is such terrible English that the mind revolts just spelling it! wo6/30= more of a bad thing(like a young child might say it)

9:07 pm

crosshair

Though it may have a different meaning altogether

9:08 pm

Aloyisius

LOL crossy.. that is my last word too! fw and I am outta here.. see you all tomorrow..

11:18 pm

JeeWhiz

Good point.

11:18 pm

Nef

Good Evening and thanks for that clue!

11:21 pm

rururocks

it's likely a grave situation as well

11:21 pm

Nef

good one ru.

11:24 pm

RoundBarn

ruru, crossy tried to pull a ru this morning--said so--but he left off the "dammit!" Hi, Nef! and all.

11:25 pm

rururocks

ah.. imitator!!!

11:25 pm

Nef

Hi RoundBarn. How are you tonight?

11:26 pm

rururocks

I would guess some people urn a ride in a hearse

11:26 pm

Nef

Somehow, the idea of crossy trying to pull a ruru--- I can't imagine that! :-)

11:26 pm

RoundBarn

fell asleep after writing group, woke up at 10 30, thought it was morning!

11:27 pm

Nef

LOL! That sounds like something I've been doing lately!

11:28 pm

RoundBarn

I guess you could look it up way back in the chat--there's a way--but I saw it after he'd left, or I would have told him it wasn't complete. so stayed silent.

11:29 pm

Nef

I was trying to carry on an online civil "discussion" with my cousin and fell asleep on the keyboard! I had a lot of gibberish; he didn't appreciate it!

11:31 pm

RoundBarn

yeah, I better get to bed so I don't mess up tomorrow. Instead of discussing a book in our tiny reading group, the lawyer in our midst is taking us through "wills" For our usual good food we're "letting the church ladies do it."

11:32 pm

Nef

Now that sounds lik it should be interesting.

11:33 pm

RoundBarn

Our next session will be end of life issues. They are all alot younger than me. Then we'll go back to books.Penelope Lively coming up.

11:35 pm

RoundBarn

seeing as how my kids have no inclination to deal with any of this (except get the book done for gods sake mom) I figure I better take it into my own hands. My will is so outdated, etc, and lots more choiced for how you want to be he*****.

11:35 pm

Nef

I was wondering if you were all writing your obituaries but thought that that sounded a little too crude

11:36 pm

RoundBarn

Mine's already written--at least the tomstone--written by my friends--"It's Around Here Somewhere."

11:37 pm

Nef

Personally, I know what I want; but I'm not sure what needs to be in a will.

11:38 pm

RoundBarn

It's all spelled out on the internet--we're all to bring our laptops and the template per instruction from the internet. I can forward Pat's directions if you want them.

11:38 pm

Nef

I hope it's complimentary! (I'm afraid some of my friends would put that I talked a lot - but was the quiet one in my family! :-)

11:39 pm

Nef

Sure!

11:39 pm

rururocks

mine is all dressed up and nowhere to go

11:40 pm

Nef

Well, that's good news, ruru. Then that means you're still alive & kicking, right?

11:43 pm

rururocks

so far

11:45 pm

RoundBarn

I sounded off to nef t'other night about people I wartch on the chat--usually I lurk and watch--sshe didn't respond to my email so I thought she might disagree with my remarks--but you--ruru--were close to the top. Maybe at the top. Present company excepted.

11:45 pm

Nef

Seriously, I always wonder if you don't have any valuables (other than a house, car, or other mundane stuff); do you really need a will?

11:46 pm

RoundBarn

yes, to divide among your children. You can't leve to your cat, by the way--it can't sign. You have to leave it to a friend of your cat--one you trust.

11:47 pm

Nef

RoundBarn, I've got a half-written response to you; but between trying to sell this condo and helping my daughter pack & get her out of there (and she's made an offer on a house too that she wanted us to advise her on) I haven't finished it yet.

11:48 pm

rururocks

close to the top of what?

11:48 pm

Nef

I'll send you what I've written so farâ€¦.

11:48 pm

RoundBarn

my problem, I have things I value and don't want them in a dumpster--what do I do with a collection of 500 v old childrens books? I mean Elsie Dinsmores and St Nicholases. They can sell my cello, but who wants the collection or can even house it? Or know which ones are valuable?

11:49 pm

Nef

CLose to the top of fun, ruru. (She was very complimentary about you

11:49 pm

RoundBarn

the top of the list of people I like on the chat, ruru--I confided in Nef on an email.

11:49 pm

rururocks

oh.. thanks

11:49 pm

rururocks

I like to make people laugh

11:50 pm

rururocks

not everyone gets my humor however

11:50 pm

rururocks

I'm always kidding around.. it's my nature

11:51 pm

RoundBarn

your humor is my sort. My favorite author just died--do you know his humor? It's your sort. Terry Pratchett. I am grieving.

11:51 pm

rururocks

no. I don't .. I can check it out though

11:52 pm

rururocks

maybe I can quote my own tidbits of the day and imitate crossy :D

11:52 pm

RoundBarn

he was only 66--the major seller in UK till Harry Potter--but his are adult books and you have to know something. And be able to get his humor.

11:52 pm

Nef

Okay, RoundBarn; I just sent the first half of my response to your email. (I'm sorry, I never know when to stop in emails.
