Hello from Down Under. Bloody hot and windy - no sign of rain and the fires are getting worse. Hopefully the Gosper Mountain Fire and the Bargo/Tahmoor Fires do not connect. They are predicting it and if it happens Sydney NSW will be completely surrounded.

12:27 am

cybernan

yes -- we have been getting updates on the new diz --- praying for some relief for you.

12:27 am

Lizlin

Not much better up here - though at the moment I think the fires are under control. Awful around Sydney though.

12:29 am

dizgrannie

thnx Nan, I am safe. My g/son and his Dad have been evacuated, but because of road closures they can't get to my place (they are in a safe area)

Must stop typing "monsoon".

8:23 am

welki

how's your foot, judi?

8:33 am

Judi

69 left. Time for a break. Foot is doing well, Welki. Now I am still nursing a broken toe on the other foot. Podiatrist has ordered a "bone growth stimulator" for me. We'll see if the insurance approves it. Anyone ever use one of them?

8:33 am

Judi

My latest prescription is to wear hiking boots. Anything beats wearing the stupid air cast.

8:33 am

welki

i haven't, but i'm sure there'll be a couple of posts about them *lol*

8:34 am

Judi

Good thing I own hiking boots.

Yeah. "bone growth stimulator" conjures not-so-medical images.

8:35 am

welki

8:35 am

Judi

It's actually an electro-magnetic thingamajiggie.

8:35 am

welki

after my surgery, i couldn't wear anything that even brushed against the back of my foot for months

8:36 am

Judi

Sounds like quackery, but I guess they really work.

8:37 am

Judi

I appologize for using a grid word.

8:38 am

hokie carla

didn't notice one used but I am not fully awake

8:38 am

Judi

I'm kind of disappointed that Ru isn't here to make fun of my medical device.
