6:56 am

MollyL

Same for the corner S, some oddball words in that run too

6:57 am

hokie carla

still on the 2nd row. barely getting half on each big tile before moving on.

7:11 am

MollyL

So you play row by row, getting half on each tile?

7:11 am

hokie carla

yes, start at top left, work left to right, top to bottom

7:13 am

MollyL

Are all your books arranged in alphabetical order on the shelf?
: D

7:14 am

hokie carla

haha, no. and I do type words in that I see from lower tiles when I see them so I don't forget. I do have 9 of the lower S even though I'm still on 2nd row.

7:21 am

Sugrraleona

7:37 am

Aloyisius

Good Morning everyone.. I must have missed a memo, enjoying the pooch pics. Wish I had a dog or cat pic to post but am petless.. is it post your pet day?

7:38 am

rururocks

no.. i just got tired of the carrot in my ass one :D

7:38 am

Trifioso

good morning aloy. I must have missed it too - our dear boy left us last Tuesday, so it's nice to see all these happy fur friends, although poignant at present

7:40 am

Aloyisius

so sorry, Trif! Horrible to lose a pet.. but they do live on in your heart

7:42 am

rururocks

what happened trif?

7:42 am

hokie carla

sorry, trif

7:48 am

rururocks

i do have some good news on the ruru front here though

7:49 am

Aloyisius

do tell, ru

7:49 am

rururocks

I got my first covid vaccine shot yesterday.. happy about that, but my arm feels like it's been beaten with a bat

7:50 am

Aloyisius

ooh, glad for you, sore arm and all

7:50 am

hokie carla

well that's great. hopefully the soreness will work out soon. just keep moving it

7:50 am

Aloyisius

no luck here so far

7:50 am

BzznBea

Keep moving it and take pain advil.

7:50 am

rururocks

hence I'm up early.. couldn't sleep on my side

7:51 am

BzznBea

Glad to hear that, ruru.

7:51 am

Aloyisius

ironically, I got an invitation for a shot.. in Cleveland. Not going to fly there right now

7:51 am

rururocks

they said to not take pain killers for two days bea

7:51 am

BzznBea

Interesting.

7:51 am

Aloyisius

which one did you get, ru?

7:51 am

rururocks

knowing me I'll walk into a wall tonight and smack my arm :D

7:52 am

rururocks

I got the Phizer (Sp?)

7:52 am

Aloyisius

Pfizer I think

7:52 am

rururocks

that's probably right

7:53 am

BzznBea

Mom got Moderna and Larry got Pfizer.

7:53 am

hokie carla

yeah, my brother told me about the no pain killers, and my mom left her papers behind at the place and didn't know, but she has so much pain from her osteoarthritis in her back she has to take it every day.

7:53 am

mael

I'm pretty sure you could take panikillers, just not anti-inflammatories.

7:53 am

Aloyisius

sure hoping that epidemiologists are keeping records as this is a monumental opportunity for research .. different vaccines and efficacy

7:53 am

rururocks

that means you get the Johnson and Johnson bea :D

7:53 am

mael

it's just that most painkillers are also anti inflammatories

7:54 am

rururocks

they were pretty definitive with me mael.. no pain killers of any kind

7:54 am

hokie carla

mr homie says he wants the J&J one due to lesser side effects

7:55 am

rururocks

I'm with mr. Homie.. the less I get poked the better I like it

7:55 am

BzznBea

And J&J is only one vaccine.

7:55 am

hokie carla

yep, that too. and he is a big baby about shots. me, I could take them all day.

7:56 am

mael

interesting re: pain killers. My FIL got his shot yesterday and no one said anything, or to my MIL before hers in December. The thought with vaccines is that you WANT the inflammatory response, that's what builds the immnuty. Which is why you shouldn't give children tylenol or similar before their shots

7:56 am

Aloyisius

as an Army brat, we had to take shots a LOT.. every time we moved.. and my sister fainted every time

7:58 am

hokie carla

when I broke my wrist they told me not to take advil but I could take tylenol, something to do with it interfering with your body's response to the break.

7:58 am

rururocks

I'm terrible with needles and blood draws.

7:58 am

Aloyisius

ibuprofen vs acetominophen

7:59 am

rururocks

they didn't say I couldn't pound down some bourbon though :D

7:59 am

hokie carla

the only time I ever had an issue was the TB test before college. not sure why that made me queasy.

7:59 am

Aloyisius

10:38 am

amelu0218

Oh, no, Bea! Comfort food usually involves mac/cheese, sliced ham (or whatever) with rolls, *yes, lasagna would be great but most things should not need heating at such a time IMOP, so a small pan fresh out of the oven would work*

10:44 am

hokie carla

oh, made it upstairs to the charger. bye bea!

10:45 am
