12:42 am

It was fun - the band has a lot of fans, i loved the flashlight choreography in the audience. But the highlight of my modest career was playing the Verdi Requiem under Rober Shaw at Severance Hall about 20 years ago.

no rain is good...we could use a little though...has Dan been off work?
3:39 pm

kids in pool. Youngest is asleep. there's something called a "tropical event" they're tracking for us, though.
3:39 pm

no, no work missed. the fed gov was on liberal leave on Monday
3:39 pm
Norad

So he flies on Wed eve and do you leave then or thurs am?
3:40 pm
esquian

no, we'll probably leave on Saturday. We've decided to miss his cousin's wedding. He was just exhausted by the thought of flying down and turning right back around.
3:41 pm
Norad

sounds like a GREAT plan! are you planning on chatta during the visit?
3:42 pm
esquian

I was thinking about that, since Mom's surgery will be done after we get there. Therese mentioned something about Lake Winnie sometime, although it might be hot for that....
3:43 pm
esquian

Do you think Mom would be too overwhelmed by all that company right after?
3:43 pm
esquian

btw, tmsm doesn't know we're coming
3:43 pm

that was part of our conversation when she asked if we were coming over the summer
3:44 pm

however, we will see Nana for much of August, so I don't know if we should go? Short answer: I don't know yet. What do you think?
3:44 pm
Norad

I probably won't be talking to her to tell her :} I don't know about mom...her plan is surgery on the 5th, 4 or 5 days at P &K's for recovery and then I told her I would come after my bday
3:45 pm
Norad

we could play it by ear
3:45 pm
esquian

ahhhh....so she'll be staying at P&K's anyway. We could take over her house then and not overwhelm her
3:45 pm
Norad

I can go after you guys head home...
3:46 pm
Norad

do you think she'd be mad if we were there and she wasn't or be really happy that we were using her place and getting to visit with her?

4:02 pm
Norad

eczema? I can hardly spell it, what are her symptoms?
4:03 pm
esquian

she's got red, bumpy patches at the creases of her elbows and back of knees and some red spots that won't go away on back of her thighs
4:03 pm
esquian

we can lessen it, but it never goes away completly
4:03 pm
esquian

* completely
4:03 pm
Atalante

elbows and knees is very symptomatic of ezcema
4:04 pm
Norad

did the dr. tell you?
4:04 pm
esquian

yeah...that's what the pediatrition said
4:04 pm
Norad

doesn't nora anne have that?
4:04 pm
esquian

maybe....she had a pretty severe case right?
4:05 pm
Norad

yeah, but didn't really diagnose until later in life...
4:05 pm
esquian

it is something that she'll have forever, but it's a "flare up" thing from what I understand
4:05 pm
Norad

that # 3, good thing she's such a cutie girl! how is it controlled?
4:05 pm
esquian

doesn't seem to bother her much. I see her itching it sometimes but not often.
4:06 pm
esquian

I know....seems she's just getting so many things the others don't/didn't have
4:06 pm
Atalante

my experiences with eczema if you're interested - try cutting out milk / dairy products. often helps a *lot*. whatever she does, don't scratch the stuff lol and moisturise moisturise moisturise!
4:06 pm
esquian

controlled by creams/lotions for moisture. if it gets really bad they can prescribe something like Elidel
4:07 pm
esquian

but I don't think they'll do that 'til she's over two
4:07 pm
esquian

Thanks, Atalante. I'll give that a try. She has backed off the milk lately. i wonder if it "flares" right after she drinks it. hmmm....
4:08 pm
Norad

Atalante, all dairy? can she live without ice cream? yikes!
4:09 pm
Atalante

it might well do - its a really common eczema thing. I always feel so much better when I discipline myself and have soy milk and soy icecream!
4:09 pm
Atalante

doesn't always work though :P

Wow! I haven't got the other ac6 or tr8 yet.
4:21 pm
babbz

btw, I was reading comments about someone's child having eczema and wanted to share my theory on this...i have it too and i think there's a connection between perspiration and eczema. I started putting antiperspirant behind my knees, in my elbow folds, neck, etc. and guess what - I don't get any flare ups there. I figured if it's okay for underarms, it's probably okay everywhere else too so I use ban roll on and i'll be dipped, it works like a charm! i can't imagine it can hurt a child any more than the eczema but you should probably check with your doc first.

funny you should ask about the hives thing. We were at another appointment today, and someone mentioned they have had eczema since they were a kid. she was given steroids for it back then. wouldn't that be something given for hives?
4:26 pm

I don't think my daughter's is hives, though. It's not raised enough, I don't think. It's more scabby (sorry for that visual).
4:27 pm
mirandapan

I'm just on zyrtec prescription--but the mystery is what in the world causes it
4:27 pm
Atalante

scabby and yellow-y clear scabby stuff ... (even nicer visuals)!
4:28 pm
Atalante

when my eczema gets bad, I end up on oral and topical steroids. Joy.
4:28 pm
ardilla

I have eczema as well. Mine is controlled with steroid creams, one for the face and one for the body following with a thick moisturizer like Eucerin. I haven't had a breakout in about 18 months but I keep the steroids handy just in case.
4:29 pm
debbinla

hi leigh
4:29 pm
esquian

mirandapan - the nurse at the doctor's office said that no one really knows the cause of eczema. It's just really over sensative skin. She said her whole family has it, adn it can flare just by laying down on a carpet or laying next to a chemical that is of no harm to others.
4:30 pm
esquian

she recommended Eucerin and Aquafor
4:30 pm
ardilla

I feel your pain, Atalante. It's quite gross especially when it's on your upper lip!
4:30 pm
mirandapan

Right, esq--mysteries of the medical world. The smaller things that we can't seem to figure out.
4:30 pm
Norad

what is Aquafor? a moisturizer?
4:31 pm
Atalante

its a bloody stupid condition! its so individual ... you'll just have to find through trial and error what irritates them ...
4:31 pm
esquian

norad - yes, it's like intense vasaline
4:31 pm

we've been putting a heavy coat of A&D on at nights before bed and it definitely fades it but it never goes completely away

4:32 pm
Norad

you said she is scratching, just time to time or often? is it worse when she plays in the pool (or sun)
4:32 pm
Atalante

it probably will go away eventually. it seems to come and go over months. I used to have it all over my body as a baby - literally all over - and then suddenly it vanished until about 2 years ago. Who knows why!
4:33 pm

my mom and brother can't stand being outside because of the pollen. I can't being indoors somedays because of the dust and mold.
4:35 pm
esquian

Norad - she scratches very rarely. doesn't seem to bother her much. she doesn't go in the pool, although I'm going to put her in today for the first time. I guess we'll see
4:35 pm
Atalante

I'd just keep a really close eye on when she does scratch. you might be able to narrow down what's irritating her skin that way
4:35 pm
esquian

omg, ardilla. that's just insane, isn't it? nature's little (or big!) annoyances
4:35 pm
ardilla

Good luck with it, Atalante!

Norad

Yeah, first swim in the pool day with the "big kids"...I'm excited for her...watch the slide though... :0
4:37 pm
Atalante

oh yes - more than likely it will, at least for a while! It seems to work at least vaguely on the same idea of 7 year cycles like asthma and bronchitis. so persevere!
4:37 pm

thanks for the chat about the eczema. Good info and good hope! :) Now to the pool with the little one! :) I'm thinking I'm not going to get many words today, but this has been really helpful!

qu9/72 is diminutive of 5-piece group...
4:58 pm
debbinla

was looking the wrong way - thanks so much everyone
4:59 pm
brandyjack

which is actually a re-spelling of the qu7 which is pronouced exactly the same....
4:59 pm
libarebel

or, feminine...
5:00 pm
melonheadjujube

oddly, the feminine is not necessarily a girl group - or should i say "enesmble des jeunes filles"
5:00 pm
libarebel

lol, melon!
5:00 pm

Paganlady - Resolve and Resolve Extra are made by Beechams. They have paracetamol, aspirin and rehydrating stuff in them. If you prefer another route, no less chemical, open a bottle of Coke ( not Pepsi) and let it go flat. It does the same job.BtW, my GP told me thaT!

Paganlady - if you've got the squits (loose bowel movements, flat coke is the best cure. Just sipped though, not necked! When I was in the last week of my 2nd pregnancy, I got a gaastro-enteritis thing. The midwivewes (since I was having her at home) thought it would bring on the birth. I didn't know where best to sit on and where best to retch to, it was that bad! But my GP (local doctor) came in and prescribed te flat coke thing and it worked.
