1:35 am
grannyrose
<------- sending heaps of snuggly cuddles to sprite
1:35 am
sprite
thanks sweetie. Some nights are worse than others. This was a doozy.
1:36 am
grannyrose
i must have picked up the vibes. while having the MRI i kept having little cramps which faded then came back.
1:37 am
sprite
aw sweetie :(
1:37 am
grannyrose
that was very unusual for me.
1:37 am
flosey
aw Sprite, that is hard to shake, isn't it - I usually get up and do something on computer if I'm having a bad night
1:37 am
grannyrose
usually they roar in to full blown omg cramps.
1:38 am
sprite
yeah me too. With lights on too. And I open the window in my bedroom wide, so the nastiness can move OUT!
1:39 am
sprite
not nice, rose, poor you. It is hard enough to keep still for the MRI as it is
1:41 am
grannyrose
anyway, you received my email. what did you think about the soup recipes?
1:42 am
sprite
will love giving them a try. Thanks for sharing, darling. I could eat soup every day of the week, tbh. Such comfort food.
1:43 am
grannyrose
it can be, you can taste it.... lol whenever i have the ketamine my taste-buds have a holiday. i simply cannot taste the hospital food at all.
1:43 am
sprite
ah well, if that is the price you must pay, it isn't too steep, is it
1:44 am
grannyrose
prolly not, and don brings in large capriciosa (sp) for dinner , with anchovies. at least i can taste the salt and cheese.
1:45 am
sprite
oh nice! Good man, Don!
1:45 am
grannyrose
uh huh with a garlic and cheese small for starters.
1:46 am

2:25 am
Kamanjah
We live on an acre and I don't think anyone can see inside
2:25 am

Kamanjah

2:28 am
Kamanjah
I just popped back over to see if I could find a few more words before bed and decided to say hi after I saw the magnesium post - that stuff is really good for pain relief!
2:29 am
sprite
*blesses rose for sharing her wisdom with us*
2:29 am
grannyrose

2:29 am
Kamanjah

how are you doing?
5:13 am
crosshair
I am doing fine, Ruby, and you?
5:13 am
rubyfoo
I am sick of both Trumpfff and the Olympics
5:14 am
crosshair
Olympics is over--as is Trump--more or less
5:14 am
rubyfoo
The best thing about the games was last night when 2 Fr commentators showed clips of various mistakes and near-misses and tantrums
5:14 am
rubyfoo
They laughed so hard they were crying
5:15 am
crosshair
I find there are unmeasurable benifits to not having cable television, and not having to see or hear Trump is just one of them.
5:15 am
rubyfoo
like pole-vaulters going Under the bar or an over-confident hurdler who gave 2 thumbs up nd got totally tangled in the first hurdle
5:16 am
rubyfoo
Isn't he on non-cable news shows?
5:17 am
crosshair
I have no television--period. I just have Netflix--nothing more. I also avoid him like the plague on the internet
5:17 am
rubyfoo
and a couple of divers who belly-flopped. I guess they're judged in part by how cleanly they enter the water
5:17 am
crosshair
Just news stories of him are bad enough
5:17 am
rubyfoo
What are your favorites on Netflix?
5:17 am
crosshair
lets see..
5:18 am
rubyfoo
I tend to binge-watch
5:18 am

I saw a newspaper article over the weekend that suggested Mrs T had been working illegally in the US when she first moved there
5:19 am
crosshair
prison break, 24, Longmire, and I wish to revisit the old start trek Voyager series, orange is the new black was good till this season. I think they should have stopped while they were ahead. I love House, which i never saw when it aired on tv
5:19 am
rubyfoo
My sister sent an item about that from a NY paper
5:20 am
crosshair
other than that, I just cherry pick good movies
5:20 am
TQ
It seemed that many people were unwilling to comment,maybe been got at?
5:20 am
crosshair
There was an awesome mini-series on castles in the U.K that was a bit of fun
5:20 am
rubyfoo
Crossy: how about Breaking Bad, Deadwood, Modern Family, Bojack Horseman (I started watching Bojack because I read a review of it which was much funnier than the show
5:21 am
crosshair
I have yet to see breaking bad
5:21 am
rubyfoo
She also appeared in "blue" photos with another woman, prior to "enhancement"
5:22 am
TQ
Yes that was mentioned too
5:22 am
crosshair
We see you TQ, just get tired of trump, trumps wife, and his minions.
5:22 am

They replaced my favorite morning show this spring, now the replacement is starting. They replaced them with younger people.
5:30 am
MollyL
TV seems to do that a lot. Replace older, more experienced favorites with young people who are clueless.
5:34 am
sukee
Although, the main woman is a quite good journalist and interviewer, the rest are annoying so far:) But, there are a lot of people angry about it. The previous show was more laid back, this reminds me of the US morning shows. We shall see how I feel by the end of the week.

5:48 am

The lunch lady just arrived with mystery meat etc.
5:49 am
rubyfoo
I have a question for any dog lovers out thre: Do dogs need mental stimulaion and is it OK if thy sleep most of the time?
5:50 am
rubyfoo
They guard the house and have a big garden, but they don't play much
5:51 am
HarryHood
I don't have a dog. But I think all animals need some mental stimulation
5:52 am
lbdawger
dogs need mental and physical stimulation just as a cat or human, depending on age will determine how much sleep is required
5:52 am
HarryHood
we were just at the jerusalem zoo where they gave the elephant a big frozen watermelon, which was very difficult for him to crack open and eat, but provided lots of challenges which they said was good for him.

the Jackpine lake fire is in the mountains about 25 km away from us and is small (13 hectares). The Bear Creek fire is a lot closer (about 10 km) and is of more concern. It started during the storm last night and has resulted in some evacuations (wondered what all the sirens were aobut) but no houses lost so far. Now that it is daylight they will be able to hit it with the water bombers and get things under control. We also had some rain this am, so no worries yet.

if you aren't in particular Christian circles, you probably won't have heard of Rich Mullins. i just want to share something that i think anyone can find touching. after his son Aidan was born, he wrote a song for him, for what he hoped for his life. while Aidan was still young, Rich died in a car accident, making the song seem all the more poignant. here are some of the lyrics:
"Aidan you're young, but Aidan you're growing fast. Me and your mom, and all of the love we have... We can only take you so far, as far as we can. But you'll need something more to guide your heart as you grow into a man. Let mercy lead. Let love be the strength in your legs, and in every footprint that you leave there'll be a drop of grace... and I'll meet you in that place where mercy leads."

I want to share a victory. I found my long-lost niece about a year ago on facebook. She is my last surviving family member. I am going to go visit her in October!!!

Reading back on blood donation. Yaa for you Peri! I also donate when I can since I have made withdrawals several times in the past.

I can't donate because I have had Typhoid. Believe it or not, a little girl got typhoid in the 60's in California.

what happens if someone gets blood from someone who had typhoid? i'd have thought it would just give them antibodies and it would be a good thing.

Me too. But I have been told I cannot donate. I was near death when they didn't know what was wrong with me and finally a resident at Stanford who had been in the Peace Corps said that he thought I had typhoid. They never thought to test for it before.

Where did that guy end up practicing medicine, I want to go to him if I get sick. Sounds like a real-life Dr House.

Hi all. I can't give blood either because I contracted some fom of jandice (hepatitis) when I was about 8. Add to that having such naturally low blood pressure (so much so that people taking my blood pressure and talking tome ask if I'm a corpse... my Dad was the same) giving blood is a no-no. Shame, cos' my blood group is quite rare, o nly 6% of the UK population.
