1:40 pm
hokie carla
now I need 3
1:40 pm
moolingwa
found one
1:41 pm
moolingwa
well they're not all normal words per se, but they are commonish in babble
1:41 pm
moolingwa
found another
1:41 pm
MollyL
"Normal" is a relative term here.
1:42 pm
MollyL
As is "common"
1:47 pm
hokie carla
agreed. I'm not sure I trust Bea's "normal", and I definitely don't trust ruru.
1:49 pm
Kaplan the Magne
My relatives are not normal.
1:53 pm
Kaplan the Magne
What nerv.
1:53 pm
MollyL
Mael's "normal" is in a world of it's own too.
1:54 pm
moolingwa
most of my relatives I'd say are probably in the range of what would be considered normal...my wife's family though is a lot more diverse
1:54 pm
Kaplan the Magne
Anyone here have a hip replaced?
1:55 pm
hokie carla
I'd bet a lot here have
1:55 pm
hokie carla
but not me
1:55 pm
moolingwa
no, I'm waiting to see if I develop any form of degenerative hip injury first
1:55 pm
hokie carla
I'm sure I have one in my future
1:56 pm
Kaplan the Magne
My parents gave me a lot of things. The major one is arthritis.
1:56 pm
moolingwa
yeah, none of my grandparents, nor my parents have any sort of joint issues, so perhaps I'll avoid that fate too
1:57 pm
Kaplan the Magne
Come forward! I like to hear the success stories.
1:57 pm
hokie carla
from what I've heard, it is the easiest of the joint replacements for recovery.
1:57 pm
moolingwa
hip hip hooray!
1:58 pm
Kaplan the Magne
The main thing is that the house has to be cleaned top to bottom, and nothing on the floor. My husband inherited an inability to clean up his stuff and to follow instructions.
1:58 pm
hokie carla
sounds familiar
1:58 pm
Kaplan the Magne
Yes, it is the easiest. Trying not to get ahead of myself, but I'm sure it will get to my knees and other hip. It's a matter of time.
1:59 pm
hokie carla
how are there still 8 more R's on that big one?
1:59 pm

2:01 pm
BzznBea
The key to any joint replacement is to do the physical therapy before the surgery.
2:01 pm
moolingwa
yeah, my wife likes to take in homeless furniture...I prefer to make stuff homeless
2:01 pm
Kaplan the Magne
Never heard that before. Stop speaking babble.
2:02 pm

The last thing I considered before my hip replacement was that the house be cleaned top to bottom. My place is usually clean most of the time anyway and I had bigger issues on my mind.

but it only to confirm, given that it was a multiple of 9
5:05 pm
moolingwa
I just looked at one of my 8s and said yep
5:06 pm
hokie carla
smart. I would've been like, 6's divide by 3, 7's divide by 4, 8's divide by 5, 9's divide by 6
5:07 pm
moolingwa
yeah, I had an 8 with all one letter tiles, so that made it easy
