good you are taking it easy. Achey is not fun.
2:08 am
grannyrose
how is Rob now? and you honey? are you coping okay?
2:11 am
sprite
I am okay. Rob... got a letter from his sister yesterday. After years of silence. Last thing she wrote to him was she wished he were dead, because she'd rather have a dead brother than one who would not do as she wanted (which is dumping me). And now, a letter that she'd like to get back in touch, no agenda, no talking about the past.
2:11 am
hurshy
name that proper noun! canadian province in which toronto is found (speaking of which, toronto is a phantom here)
2:12 am
hurshy
uh, sorry sprite, i put that in before your post showed up for me...
2:13 am
sprite
no worries, hursh, no need to wait for my post, lol
2:13 am

just seemed a little too frivolous a follow up after such a serious comment :)
2:14 am

ontario, btw ;)
2:14 am

ding ding ding!
2:14 am
hurshy
one more E and i'll have the bottom row done
2:15 am
sprite
ah, I know which one you are missing :D
2:15 am
hurshy
that makes sense, since my three go together
2:15 am
hurshy
makes it easy to figure i'm missing the other
2:16 am
grannyrose
ugh. sprite, i have a very sinking feeling in my gut re Rob's sister's letter. he is going to have a LOT of shields to put in place before he confronts her again.
2:16 am
sprite
yeah. Sure. Rain on my parade, why don't ya.
2:16 am
hurshy
lol i didn't mean it to :)
2:18 am
sprite
got the same sinking feeling, rose. But Rob was done with it before I went to sleep yesterday. He sent her a text. "The kids have been doing great without their aunt for years. Cass has been doing great without her SIL for years too. Me, I have sometimes missed you a little, but I haven't done too badly without you either. So no, I am not interested in getting back in touch."
2:18 am
sprite
*grins @ hursh* The one you miss comes before the others.
2:19 am
grannyrose
wow !!! WTG ROB !!!!
2:19 am
hurshy
how long is it, sprite?
2:19 am
sprite
ikr? He actually said, why didn't she write in about 3 months... we'd have been moved already then.
2:20 am
hurshy
tried to get away with some alt spelling of emcee
2:20 am
grannyrose
please tell him that i am very proud of him. he really does not need such a negative person in his life as he deals with the sale, and moving out, and building your new home. nope... she is not needed.
2:21 am
sprite
I asked Rob if I could send her a text too and he said yes ofcourse. So I wrote what he didn't... that after having told him she'd rather see him dead, her letter was way off. And that I, as always, am 100% in his corner, which means: no contact.
2:21 am
sprite
nice try, hursh, but no cigar
2:22 am
sprite
will do, rose. I am proud of him too. He wasn't even too down from it. A little shaken, but okay. He says he worked through it after her dead wish letter.
2:23 am
hurshy
phew, morewords - that is, i think, a new one for me
2:24 am

took me a while too, hursh.

2:25 am
Kamanjah
{{{Sprite}}} - rough stuffs there. Sounds like it was well handled, though.
2:25 am

the def is: a hypothetical precursor of a living cell. We all knew that.
2:26 am

thanks Kam, and yes, I think so too. *hugs* How are you and mr Kam?
2:26 am
hurshy
my sister's cat has this issue and we did surgery to try to fix it but it didn't work, and, yesterday, based on two episodes of House MD i said what i thought the reason was. and then today she asked the vet about it and the vet said the exact thing that i said!
2:26 am
sprite
what was your proud moment, hursh?
2:26 am
hurshy
made me feel real smart
2:26 am
sprite
oh wow, that IS very smart!
2:27 am
sprite
house is very educational. And delightfully sarcastic.
2:27 am
Kamanjah
Weather change hit the Mr hard today, he's had a rough one. I'm just tired, it's time for bed...and I have to drive 50+ miles to doc tomorrow in rain and who knows what. I hope I get there in time - no cell signal in half of the areas I have to go thru
2:28 am
grannyrose
yahoo hurshy. what a gal you are !!! and i know you. *puffs chest out with pride*
2:28 am
hurshy
yeah but, i had one college friend who became a doctor who wouldn't watch it. she said there was plenty that was accurate but enough that was inaccurate, that, as a doctor, she didn't want to watch it and risk remembering something incorrect later on in some situation with her own patients
2:29 am
grannyrose
lolll. hurshy DH wouldn't let me watch it because i was always pointing out the mistakes..
2:29 am
Kamanjah
I like watching House. He's such a stinker!
2:29 am
sprite
best leave in plenty of time, I think, Kam. Better to wait a little there than stress about making it.
2:29 am
hurshy
well, i should really be getting to sleep. good seeing you all! ttfn!
2:29 am
Kamanjah
I'm planning on leaving way early!
2:29 am
grannyrose
if he only learnt to use his walking stick correctly. i have to admit that that makes me grind my teeth
2:30 am

oh, I can understand that. It is hard sometimes to sort out memories from real memories.

2:30 am

me, I do not care about inaccuracies like that. I simply enjoy the wicked dialogues.
2:30 am
Kamanjah
And taking all the highways I can, even though it's more miles. All the roads are only 2 lanes anyway, so people at the other end do understand. I haven't been late...yet...and don't intend to be, either!
2:31 am

kam, honey, i hope you have a good rest tonight. po4 himself.
2:31 am

2:31 am

poor Michael. So hard to stomach, feeling awful just because of the weather changing.
2:32 am
sprite
will think of you, Kam. May the drive there and back go smoothly and safely, and may the doctor actually know ways to make things better.
2:36 am
Kamanjah
Oh, sorry, I had to give the dog some CBD oil - he's hurt his leg and I can't get him to vet till next week
2:36 am
sprite
po4 pooch :( Hope the oil will help.
2:36 am
Kamanjah
Thanks for the good thoughts, tomorrow is likely going to be a minor ordeal. I think doc is going to need xrays - I think I may have cracked a bone or three in my face
2:37 am
Kamanjah
It seems to be helping him - he can jump on the bed again.
2:38 am
grannyrose
ugh... mwah, kam. you just reminded me that i meant to buy some doggie treats for one of our regulars dog. he is so sweet, and is not terrifically impressed with human biscuits.*sigh*
2:38 am
sprite
dogs are very smart about refraining from actions that will worsen injuries. Even with the oil to bring down the pain, it is a good sign he jumps.
2:38 am
grannyrose
kam, did i miss something? have you had a fall?
2:39 am
sprite
she did have a whopper of a fall, and did NOT go to the doctor right afterwards. I was pretty mad at her.
2:39 am
Kamanjah
Mine isn't too smart about slowing down, he just runs harder on three legs - he's about 5 1/2 and a Springer Spaniel - he loves to run and flush birds!
2:41 am
grannyrose
naughty kam... although i love you dearly, that was a pretty silly thing to NOT do.
2:41 am
Kamanjah
Yes, Rose, I did a lovely face plant on the cement step after checking on the neighbor's horse who was making lots of noise and running around her corral back on the night of the 4th. A hose had gotten moved 6 inches out into the yard and I didn't know it...splat
2:41 am
sprite
amen. What rose says.
2:42 am
sprite
aw, a youngish Springer... lively as can be.
2:42 am
Kamanjah
I couldn't get to the doctor right away - Michael was working the election Tues - I fell at 12:30AM and he had to be up at 5 to be at the polls.
2:43 am
sprite
but but but he should have driven you there the day after... anyway, I am glad you are going to have the doctor check up on it all tomorrow.
2:43 am
Kamanjah
I couldn't drive myself, and if we called an ambulance I wouldn't have a way home
2:43 am
Kamanjah
It wasn't an "emergency" the day after
2:44 am
grannyrose
there is something seriously wrong with your post kam... i just cannot pick out what it is... lolll
2:44 am
sprite
so... consider yourself scolded again, Kam, and let us know how things go tomorrow.
2:45 am
grannyrose
oh Kam, of course it was an emergency... but enough... all in the past. i am so glad you are doing something about it.
