{{sprite}} hugs and good morning my dearest. how are you wearing?
1:45 am
sprite
*hugs rose* Hello my dear friend. I am tired, but otherwise good. How are you feeling?
1:46 am
grannyrose
not too bad. this time the sweating is almost under control, but the pain is worse.
1:47 am
grannyrose
i think it may be to do with the disturbed night i had in the hospital.
1:47 am
sprite
sorry to hear that :(
1:47 am
sprite
yeah that would do it, certainly. Can you somehow set it right again? Or do you have to go back?
1:48 am
grannyrose
it would appear i cannot have it all... loll
1:48 am
sprite
yes you can :D You will figure it out and then it will be optimal every time you go in.
1:48 am
grannyrose
slowly slowly. took endone yesterday and the day before. but not today
1:49 am
sprite
how about a real knockout pill to make you sleep through the night, maybe?
1:50 am
grannyrose
we are about to start Holy week at church. very busy time of year, almost comparable to Christmas.
1:51 am
sprite
not good. Will you please take care of yourself? It is easy to overdo things in such weeks and now that yuo are not feeling great, you should be extra kind for yourself.
1:51 am
grannyrose
btw..... LESS THAN TWO MONTHS NOW!!! WHOOPEE!!
1:51 am
sprite
:D it is gonna be so great
1:53 am
grannyrose
i am trying to take a step b ack, but you know how it is. you look fine from the outside, but inside....
1:53 am
sprite
yeah I know. So it is really up to you to make sure you don't overdo things. Please, darling.
1:54 am
sprite
90s is a phantom, darn it
1:54 am
grannyrose
i will, i promise. i am gonna try and go to bed earlier. even if i lie there and read, at least my body is relaxed.
1:55 am
sprite
yeah, resting your body is key.
2:05 am
sprite
*suspects rose went straight to bed to rest her body*
2:08 am
grannyrose
nah, just answering some messages. i AM siting with my feet up though
2:08 am

good girl :)
2:15 am
sprite
I won't be here tomorrow, btw. I have a night shift with a trainee tonight, and tomorrow I'll go and have my nails done. Probably will collapse once home, lol, and sleep till friday
2:16 am
grannyrose
sounds good to me. i was going to say to you that with church activities increasing i too may not be here.
2:18 am
grannyrose
check, cfheck, check
2:19 am
sprite
test right back
2:20 am

i am so glad you don't watch the news sprite. sitting here with tears pouring, pictures of children afflicted by the chemical attack in syria.
2:20 am
sprite
*hugs rose*
2:23 am
grannyrose
did you do yesterday's whopper grid, sprite?
2:26 am
sprite
no, didn't have time. I played the one before just before the flip, then went on with my day. Was it a good one?
2:27 am
grannyrose
nearly 340 words. i loved it, bt some didn't. i really like the challenge.
2:28 am
sprite
not too big. Once they get around 500, they become timesinks. But usually those 300+ ones go really fast because of all the series.
2:30 am
grannyrose
yeah. ikr ?
2:31 am
sprite
such a fun feeling, entering series upon series of words, seeing them faster than your fingers can reproduce. Lickety for the last 10 or so really helps though. Otherwise, those last few will take ages.
2:33 am
grannyrose
i find i am now only missing the really weird ones, and even then, if we have had them before, i usually recall them.such a sense of accomplishment.
2:33 am
sprite
awesome :) Such good exercise for our brains
2:34 am
sprite
I usually don't miss the oddballs, unless they are new. But I do miss some obvious ones.
2:36 am
sprite
fireflies. Easy grid.
2:37 am
sprite
a big *hug*, my darling. Take care of you, please. My love to Don too.

7:07 am
evanonut
i think it wasn't hungry, it just walked away. and i think i wasn't brave, i was just astounded at the size and was going in for a closer look.
7:07 am
MLFAN17
evan you were definitely lucky
7:08 am
evanonut
there were seven other people present, i think that acted as a deterrent.
7:08 am

Yay for Hursh!
12:59 pm
lorena_k
Woot! Hego you mean the en?
1:00 pm
hurshy
i think hego just means, "i before e, except after c" - so she wants there to be an E next to the C in the grid for easier making of words
1:00 pm
hego
No, I just think it would be great to have an e there. Wishful thinking.
1:00 pm
lorena_k
lol oh der...
1:01 pm
hego
Yes Hursh, that's it.
1:01 pm
hurshy
if we had a D instead of the J or the C we could get "unitard", lol

Thanks, scrabs. One of my friends was diagnosed 4 years ago with a new persistent headache - hit her like a thunderbolt and never went away - and there isn't much they can do for that. But that's not what I have. (Probably I should quit self-diagnosing and let them do it :-)
