2:38 am
grannyrose
and don has ordered a second unit so that we will always have a back up
2:38 am
sprite
oh! :( How nasty. Well, at least you have confirmation of how well it works for you.
2:39 am
grannyrose
absolutely, honey. now i am considering seriously, of having the neurostimulators implanted.
2:40 am
grannyrose
how was your yesterday and night?
2:40 am
sprite
am glad you will have a backup from now on. And yeah, something to really give some thought.
2:42 am
sprite

2:43 am
grannyrose
good for you sweetie. tomorrow is 'june' day. out for lunch then charity shopping. what does today hold for you?
2:43 am

Fine here - yes it was a lovely email. I wrote back yesterday.
2:47 am

Lizlin
Hope her sisters are OK.
2:48 am

from your mouth, errr fingertips, to God's ears/eyes, Liz
2:54 am
Lizlin
I'm finding this grid pretty challenging!
2:54 am
grannyrose
you're not on your own liz. it was beastly for me.
2:55 am
grannyrose
there are quite a few belief words.
2:55 am
Lizlin
I thought it might be me - lack of sleep!
2:55 am
Lizlin
I've only got 2 of them
2:56 am
sprite
so far I have 2 combos and one single of them
2:57 am
grannyrose
there is one more sprite
2:57 am
sprite
one combo or one single?
2:57 am
grannyrose
that is one more combo.
2:57 am
Lizlin
3 if I count the base belief word.
2:57 am
sprite
oh, thanks Liz, lol.
2:57 am
grannyrose
there are three combo's and one single
2:58 am
Lizlin
Only have 1 combo
2:59 am
sprite
do you count se5/12?
2:59 am
grannyrose
oh no, i didn't that's 4 combos
2:59 am
sprite
so that is two singles then, and three combos
3:00 am
grannyrose
duh!!! what sprite said
3:00 am
Lizlin
Is one single the base word?
3:00 am
grannyrose
yes liz
3:00 am
Lizlin
OK so missing 2 combos - sigh
3:01 am
sprite
one combo missing then, for me. Want to swap first letters, Liz?
3:01 am
Lizlin
I have on 7
3:01 am
sprite
ok, drop the O for another. Those are mine too, alas.
3:02 am
grannyrose
want a hint yet?
3:02 am
Lizlin
Always - but if Sprite doesn't, I'll hang on.
3:02 am
sprite
rose, I'd really like the first letter of the other combo, please :)
3:03 am
sprite
awesome. And girls, I don't mind clues or hints! I only mind the endless lists in chat.
3:03 am
Lizlin
I'd quite like a bit more than c!
3:04 am
grannyrose
i do understand honey. i was just checking before i opened my big mouth.... so to speak
3:05 am
sprite
ah found the combo! Thanks again, rose.
Liz, CL7/8 combo
3:05 am
grannyrose

3:07 am

3:07 am
Lizlin
Thanks for the cl 7/8.
3:07 am
sprite
tell him to take his meds, lie down for a bit and quit complaining. Either take care of himself or lose the right to nag!
3:08 am
Lizlin
Fair poi The!
3:08 am
grannyrose
lol, liz. spell check strikes again
3:09 am
Lizlin
Careless fingers, I think.

Lizlin
Spell check too
3:09 am

3:11 am
grannyrose
hmmmm, ties fingers together
3:12 am
grannyrose
<------ likes breathing too much.
3:13 am
sprite
hahaha... I like you too much to ever make you stop!
3:13 am
Lizlin
Happy you like breathing - me too :)
3:14 am
grannyrose
bit of a habit. i'm used to doing it.
3:14 am
Lizlin
Sprite - mixed feelings about Terry Goodkind
3:15 am
grannyrose
did i ever tell you about an anaesthetist who, having brought a patient into recovery started to walk away?
3:15 am
sprite
not me. I use a head set. Breathe in.... breathe out... breathe in.... breathe out....
3:15 am
sprite
oh, please tell, Liz!
3:15 am
sprite
doesn't ring a bell, rose, do tell
3:15 am
grannyrose
i noticed the patient wasn't breathing. she said, breathing is over-rated.
3:16 am
grannyrose
lolol. sprite, you're not blonde
3:16 am
sprite
roflolllllll cutie!
3:16 am
sprite
nah I am too dumb to be blonde
3:16 am
grannyrose
i told her it was a recovery room requisite.
3:17 am
sprite
I hope she rectified the situation anyway
3:18 am
grannyrose
a bit of jaw support from me, and heaps of oxygen, she started to breath on her own
3:18 am
sprite
thank God. Not a good thing from the lady doc
3:18 am
Lizlin
Liked most books. Less keen on soul of the fire and pillars of creation, which I'm reading now. Feel he's got a bit diverted.
3:19 am
grannyrose
it's just as well that it was my habit to visually check my patients while the doctor is handing over.
3:19 am
Lizlin
Good habit for a nurse
3:19 am
sprite
Liz, I am right there with you. Same two books. They feel like he had to deliver them for his publisher, but wasn't much into the story. Keep going, though. The other books are again great.
3:20 am
sprite
not the first time a nurse saves a doctor, nor the last
3:20 am
Lizlin
Good. I'll certainly continue.
3:21 am
grannyrose
gosh i miss my job so much.
3:21 am
Lizlin
I guess there were hints about the other illegitimate kids and he felt he had to follow through.
3:21 am
Lizlin
You'll get over that Rose! I loved teaching but don't miss it.
3:22 am
sprite
I hear ya, hun. Hard to step back and not utilise your talents there anymore. But your health is worth the sacrifice
3:22 am
grannyrose
thanx dear friends.
3:25 am

yeah, I think so too, Liz. Well, the Naked Empire is ok. And Chainfire and Phantom are amazing.

6:30 am

My sister departed 20 minutes ago and she works tonight. She works in a hospital pharmacy, 8:30pm-7:30am for 7 nights in a row, then has 7 days off.
6:30 am
car.eeyore
Oh I would hate that schedule
6:30 am
Scrabbler
We all take our turns with the weekends being on call.
6:31 am
Scrabbler
It works for her because she requires just 5 hrs of sleep each night and can nap easily during the day. I could not do it because my brain needs a routine and needs 8-9 hrs of sleep every night.
6:31 am
car.eeyore
I am not enjoying the right side of the grid. Just sayin'

6:57 am
zoozzoom
Would you like me to try and help, Liz?
6:57 am
Lizlin
Very hard. Rose and Sprite also thought it hard earlier on.
6:58 am
Lizlin
Thanks for the offer. Feeling a bit brain dead. Will probably leave the rest until tomorrow and have an early night (it's 10pm now).
6:58 am
Scrabbler
Yay Zooz!
6:58 am
zoozzoom
Well if they found it hard then It must be a hard grid. they are the queens of babble along with Volly and a few others.
6:58 am
Lizlin
They certainly are.
6:59 am
zoozzoom
Oh yes of course I keep forgetting the time difference. Hope you have a wondeful eveing, Liz!
6:59 am
Lizlin
It always amazes me how quickly some of those experts finish.
6:59 am
zoozzoom
Sorry for the typos!
6:59 am
Lizlin
Thanks, Zooz. You enjoy your day :)
7:00 am

I know, Liz! I knnow a babbler called Gremlin can finish a grid in minutes!
7:00 am

Well I don't know the person personally but from on here lol
7:01 am

Okay I think I am babbling on a bit too much here lol. Happy babbling everyone!
7:01 am

7:18 am

I already have that one, Bichon.
7:20 am
LuvWordGames
hey Scrabs, I'm going to be up in your neck of the woods in June. Will be staying in Hammondsport, NY at a B&B.
7:23 am
Scrabbler
That is about 2 hrs away, at the southern tip of Keuka Lake. I have kayaked on that lake. Hammondsport is nice little village. We shopped there and had lunch at a little place. I was the driver while driving friends around to wineries one day. I do not drink.
7:24 am
Scrabbler
The Finger Lakes region is beautiful!
7:24 am
LuvWordGames
I've been in the area before, Watkins Glen, and several other gorges to see the waterfalls but always in the Fall. I'm looking forward to seeing Watkins Glen in the Summer.
7:25 am
LuvWordGames
Thought about bringing our kayaks but not sure if we'll have much time to use them since it's just going to be a 4 day weekend trip. Is Keuka Lake nice to kayak on?
7:26 am
Scrabbler
We had planned to stay there last weekend for 2 days of hiking but the rain ruined our plans and we cancelled.
7:27 am
Scrabbler
Oh, yes, it is very nice for kayaking. We stayed at a cottage across from Keuka College, so we paddled across and then walked around the campus, which is quite small.
7:27 am
LuvWordGames
oh, that' s disappointing. Hope the weather starts improving; I've only been kayaking once so far this year but hope to go Friday
7:29 am
LuvWordGames
sounds like a nice trip. Maybe we can rent kayaks if we find time and the lake really tempts me.
7:36 am
Scrabbler
I prefer remote lakes with no homes around the shore--like in the Adirondacks.
7:38 am
Dorens
fifth lake!
7:39 am
Dorens
(if I remember correctly)
7:41 am
Scrabbler
13th Lake! How I love that lake. So peaceful and beautiful.
7:41 am
LuvWordGames
So do I Scrabs. My first preference is to kayak on remote rivers though
7:43 am
Scrabbler
Paddling on rivers is complicated as it involves 2 cars and shuttling the kayaks.
7:43 am
LuvWordGames
One of my favorite books is set on the Allagash River. It's called Eternal on the Water by Joseph Monninger
7:44 am
LuvWordGames
True Scrabs but the current on some of the rivers in my area is calm enough we can paddle both ways so we don't have to do that
7:46 am
EvaNadine
im not a strong kayaker, but ive been rafting a few times + it can be exhilarating!
7:47 am
LuvWordGames
Or if we can't we contact a Livery and have them transport us using our own kayaks
7:47 am
LuvWordGames
I'm not brave enough to white water raft Eva but it does look exhilarating
7:47 am
Scrabbler
Paddling in both directions makes it so much easier!
7:48 am
Dorens
Ok, yes, 13th lake~ It was really beautiful
7:49 am
Scrabbler
We have done white water rafting on the Sacandaga River in the Adirondack Mtns and it is fun. Not dangerous--helmets are not required like on the Hudson River Gorge.
7:50 am
Scrabbler
Doren, we are renting a cabin there in July. 13th Lake is my happy place. When I am stressed I close my eyes and go there.
7:50 am

someone died on a whitewater rafting trip here in Maine this week....quite sad...a dad chaperoning a boy scout trip....

Oh, no, Penquis! That is so tragic!

That is sad pen. There's a dam on the local river that has taken many lives because people don't obey the signs that tell them to stay away from it. I warn anyone I see on the river about it.

the very first time i ever went rafting was with a friend who is an AVID outdoorsman.
we went on the Upper Gaulley River in WVa on class 5 rapids! (helmets were definitely required!)
7:58 am

i fell out twice. once did freak me out, but otherwise, it was really fun!
we were the "pickup raft" on one of our runs -- we had to collect an older gent who had fallen out of his raft...he was pale as a sheet!

scrabbler, my assignment for grad school this week was to find and read an article WAY over my level of understanding. So, I grabbed my mum's copy of the NEJM....man oh man! What a struggle! It was an EXCELLENT assignment, in terms of helping us relate to what it is like to struggle to read....I could decode every word. But comprehension? Nope.
8:21 am
Scrabbler
Great assignment. My lawyer sister and I discuss the same thing. I cannot understand her lingo and work. She cannot understand mine.
8:22 am

whoo! nbt

But my hospital pharmacist sister and I can understand each other.

it was a great assignment. I can confidently say I know nothing about Polyhydramnios, Transient antenatal barter's syndrome, and MAGED2 Mutations.
8:23 am
Scrabbler
And it happens when we bring our car to the auto shop and get a diagnosis.
8:25 am
Trifioso
it was so interesting - I misread it as PolyhydroAMINOS and thought it was something to do with too many watery proteins. And even that is telling - lots of struggling readers would make a similar mistake, apply prior knowledge, and get the wrong picture of what they were reading, EXACTLY I as I did.

sleep monitoring is a crock.
9:42 am
Scrabbler
I do wonder how a Fitbit can monitor sleep. Polysomnography is quite sophisticated.
9:44 am
mixi6
The one I have only collects when you start to go to sleep (manually push the button) and when you wake up (push the button again). Put a clock near the bed is just as effective.
9:45 am
Scrabbler
And there is a big difference between duration of sleep and quality of sleep.
9:46 am
mixi6
yup. There are sleep monitors you can put a strap on the bed, and it's supposed to collect more info. Looked at it, but didn't buy one.

Cool, Eva. What exactly is an anterior placenta? (I missed that day in Biology).

Wait until you see and feel body parts! Enjoy the wonder of growing a baby inside of you!
10:08 am
Scrabbler
I must get going now.
10:09 am

judi -- it just means that the placenta is in front of the baby, rather than behind. it provides an extra layer of cushioning, which is unfortunately when youre waiting to feel movement!
