3:01 am
meliae
they make their own stuff, they know they are not allowed to touch mine, they are just not coordinated enough and they break things, so they have a Barbie big house with sturdy furniture that I let them paint over and over, its a hideous mess but they love it
3:02 am
westford
oh that's such a good idea
3:03 am
meliae
I tried in the past to let them do one but it was just too overwhelming for them and me, and I found a big old clunky house at a yard sale and bought it for them and they just love it
3:04 am
westford
how long have you been a care giver?
3:06 am
meliae
well when I was 16 (34 years ago) my mom rescued a mentally handicapped lady from an abusive situation, when my mon passed away I took over the care of her and it just grew from there, so I have had Elsie who is 62 (11mentally) basically for 34 years she is like my sister.
3:07 am
westford

Hello everyone! I have a day off. Yippee!
7:25 am
lilliann
bye carlee, take care
7:25 am
lilliann
hi scrabs
7:25 am
Scrabbler
Miss Lill--how have you been? I haven't seen you in ages.
7:26 am
lilliann
fine thanks scrab.been lurking a bit lately. how are you?
7:26 am
lilliann
anything planned for your day off?
7:27 am
Scrabbler
I am sad that summer is ending because it has been so much fun and there is so much more I want to do before our 5 month winter begins.
7:27 am
lilliann
we haven't really had a summer here, but i know what you mean, i'm not a winter person
7:28 am
Scrabbler
I got to sleep in! 8 AM was better than 6AM. I think I will go biking with my friend that just returned from 10 days in the Netherlands and then England.
7:29 am
Scrabbler
I enjoy cross-country skiing, but I miss the sun during the winter. And the driving is at times treacherous. How is your little one?
7:29 am
lilliann
that sounds nice. where did your friend go in england?
7:29 am
Scrabbler
LOL, I was so proud of myself to notice the Qu tile right away, before coffee, that I keep trying to find Q words when the tile is greyed out!
7:30 am
lilliann
she's not too bad thanks...i was just going to ask you something concerning her
7:30 am
Scrabbler
I will find out details later today when we get together. I know that she took a boat from the Neth. to England.
7:30 am
lilliann
she has been diagnosed with tietze's syndrome, will she out grow it?
7:30 am
EvaNadine
*yawn* mornin babblers!
7:31 am
EvaNadine
i already greeted you all over on the sudoku log...can you tell im totally unawake today??
7:31 am
Scrabbler
**quickly looking up Tietze Syndrome because I never heard of it**
7:31 am
lilliann
we've been told to give her pain killers and if it gets worse then she'll have to have steroids, which none of us wants, including the doctor
7:31 am
lilliann
it's to do with the ribs
7:32 am
Scrabbler
Is that the chest pain syndrome?
7:32 am
lilliann
it does have another name beginning with a c, but i can't remeber it
7:32 am
lilliann
remember even
7:33 am
Scrabbler
I do know it then--yes, costochondritis. It is just musculoskeletal pain and will go away soon. It is a strain in the rib cage.
7:33 am
Scrabbler
So, Eva, you said, "Good morning Babblers!" while on the Sudoku site?
7:33 am
lilliann
she's had it 6 months already and doesn't seem to be getting any better
7:33 am
EvaNadine
indeed i did, scrabbler!
7:35 am
patact
just reading through chat, noticed the discussion re: costochondritis. My son was just diagnosed with that yesterday.
7:36 am
lilliann
what were you told about it patact?
7:36 am
Scrabbler
It really is a strain in the rib cage, but because we breathe/cough/sneeze, we cannot "rest" the area to allow it to heal faster.
7:37 am
lilliann
and my daughter won't rest anyway scrabs, she's always on the move, which doesn't help
7:38 am
Scrabbler
The rib cage cartilage gets inflamed and the cartilage is the flexible part of the rib cage.
7:38 am
lilliann
it's worse in the morning and evenings, but she also gets it in the day, depending on what she's been upto
7:38 am
patact
For him it's chronic--he's been suffering from it off and on for about 5 years. He thought it was gall bladder and brought on by what he ate, but this last bout FINALLY brought him to the emergency room. They told him to take ibuprofen, use a heating pad (this really works for him) and to avoid impact to the chest area. He works with stage combat, so he the idea of avoiding hits is on his mind.
7:38 am
patact
It seems to come on while he's sleeping.
7:39 am
Scrabbler
Chest pain frightens parents and kids but it is not like chest pain in an adult where we think of a heart attack. But it causes great anxiety.
7:39 am
patact
the mayo clinic website had a lot of information
7:40 am
patact
Yes, chest pain frightening. They did an ekg, xrays, blood tests
7:40 am
lilliann
we thought it was indigestion or heart burn to start with but it wasn't getting any better so we thought we should get it checked out
7:41 am
Scrabbler
If there is a tender area or pain with deep inspiration, then that fits the diagnosis of costochronditis. Tietze Syndrome refers to this with an area of swelling.
7:41 am
lilliann
but she's happy now because she has a name for it
7:42 am
Scrabbler
Oops, we have been using pa4 in the chat...let's all go to the penalty box for treats!!
7:42 am
lilliann
oh, so we have...yes lets go and have a party scrabs
7:43 am
patact
Son is 23. Hearty laughter also painful yesterday. He was 'hooting' over some comments during the Republican Convention--the pain made him control himself. LOL
7:45 am
Scrabbler
Pat--I read your profile. Where is Elgin?
7:46 am
patact
Elgin, IL...about 30 miles from Chicago.
7:50 am
Scrabbler
I have 3 sets of friends with kids at Wheaton. The parents went there too.
7:51 am
patact
Wheaton another suburb. Probably about 20 miles and a vastly different socioeconomic area.
7:53 am
Scrabbler
I have never been to Chicago.
7:55 am
Angelsong
lol...the to4 finally jumped out at me.
7:56 am

Okay...I don't like this board. Just sayin'.
11:16 am
Vicuna
It is a little uncooperative, isn't it.
11:16 am
wickdsmaht
It's making me feel dumb. And I don't think I'm particularly dumb.
11:17 am
Vicuna
In fact, word is you're wicked smart.
11:18 am
wickdsmaht
This is quite true. However, I'm feeling a bit retahded with this grid. :)
11:19 am
kje
LOL - you are funny
11:19 am
nDanLia
you mean you dont know about irrigation ditches, australian snakes, and bosphorus sailing vessels
11:19 am
KnightTime
KnightTime theory on small grids: They seem to be tougher because fewer words build off of other words
11:19 am
KnightTime
in a large grid, there are usually more plurals, gerunds, past tense words, etc. and there are usually a ton of 4 letter words
11:19 am
Vicuna
lol. It's good for smart people to be reminded that they don't know everything!
11:20 am
KnightTime
the 4 letter words show the player the pathways to larger words and derivatives
11:20 am
KnightTime
i takes me less time to do a 180 word grid than a grid like this
11:21 am
Vicuna
All this is true, KnightTime. But the fact remains that some small grids are easier than others! =)
11:21 am
wickdsmaht
No kidding, Knight I totally agree. And I don't even know what "bosphorus" means, especially in regard to sailing vessels.
11:21 am
KnightTime
easier meaning...????
11:21 am
kje
KT - what is that in your icon?
11:22 am
Vicuna
The words are found with less effort, puzzlement and frustration?
11:22 am
KnightTime
a piece of wadded paper
11:22 am
kje
just random... or an art piece... it looks almost human mummifie
11:23 am
KnightTime
the back story is too boring - suffice it to say my son and I disagreed about something
11:23 am
nDanLia
its off Turkey, narrowest strait used for international sea travel
11:24 am
nDanLia
you should submit to MOMA, more creative than some there
11:25 am
kje
doesn't sound boring.... i'm already intrigued
11:25 am
wickdsmaht
Be back later -- off to do something that's slightly less frustrating. Nuclear fission or something, perhaps.
11:26 am
Vicuna
Maybe you can solve world hunger, wickd. Good luck!
11:26 am
KnightTime
I am into nuance, probably because of the nature of my work. So to me there are huge differences in things that can appear to be the same. I used a napkin and a paper towel as an example.
11:27 am
kje
what kind of work KT?
11:27 am
KnightTime
functionally they are similar, but aesthetically and from a market point of view, they are vastly different

gusting winds and rain... Ike will be interesting... he can't quite decide where he wants to visit...
1:02 pm

How about evEEl?

4:09 pm
Aussieme
Nutter Butter !!!!!!!!
4:09 pm
nancethefan
i want a gyro looking at this grid
4:10 pm

Well that makes sense, Pini. I wish I could work only 4 days a week!
4:10 pm
icepyro
howdy nutty!
4:10 pm
Pinikula
Besides, I have to spend down my vacation time; I've maxed out and they won't let me earn anymore until some of what I have goes away...
4:10 pm
nancethefan

4:10 pm
wickdsmaht
Must be a tough life, Pini. ;)
4:10 pm

4:11 pm
icepyro
I have 160 hrs and growing... paid time off...
4:11 pm
evanonut
ugh, christmas
4:11 pm
nancethefan
i can't find any words
4:12 pm
Pinikula
it is tough, wickd...I maxed on vacation because they think my taking time off would interefer with work; besides they don't pay me enough to have any leftover money to go on any kind of a "vacation" (away from the backyard) ;)
4:12 pm
wickdsmaht
Goodness. I get a week every six months and that's it.
4:12 pm
Pinikula
We can't cash in our time, pyro...they just stop giving it to us...
4:12 pm
wickdsmaht
And my boss makes me feel guilty for taking it.
4:12 pm
Pinikula
what do you do, wickd?
4:12 pm
Aussieme
I love christmas for the kids, but not for the damn working...... I work in the food trade, and it is a killer across the 4 weeks before christmas..... but..... the week leading up to it, OMG, there is soooo much to do !!
4:12 pm
evanonut
we can cash in our time, but heck on that...i'll take the time off
4:12 pm
nancethefan
that stinks
4:13 pm
Aussieme
I get 192 hours a year..... and bank holidays on top !
4:13 pm
Pinikula
I wish I could, but like wickd, my boss makes me feel guilty...
4:13 pm
wickdsmaht
We're absolutely dead around Christmas. I spend my time here reading novels.
4:13 pm
Aussieme
next year, I get 200 hours holiday.....
4:13 pm
wickdsmaht
Not fair Aussie! I get 9 paid holidays. I guess that's not too shabby.
4:14 pm
Aussieme
mine are paid too Wickd....
4:14 pm
Pinikula
...like they can't live without me being there (I'm the only staff)...
4:14 pm
wickdsmaht
There are only two of us in my office -- if one takes a vacation, it's pretty much hell for the other. Doesn't stop either of us from taking our earned time, though!
4:14 pm
nancethefan
y'all like grand funk railroad?
4:14 pm
Pinikula
...if she's not really careful, I may just take all my accrued time (vacation, sick, pto, and comp) off all at one time...
4:15 pm
icepyro
I get 6 paid holidays and earn pto hours (sick and vacation come from them) based on how long Ive been with company and how many hours worked (currently like 6 hours a pay period)
4:15 pm
Pinikula
...then they could ask me what I did over summer break and I might have something to tell them rather than, "What summer break, I worked!"
4:16 pm
wickdsmaht
We don't get sick days, but it we are sick we should stay home and she'll pay us. However, neither of us is ever sick enough to stay home. We feel too guilty!
4:16 pm
evanonut
i don't know the per pay, but i get 4 weeks a year
4:16 pm
Aussieme
my sick pay is 8 weeks full pay, 8 weeks half pay, and then statutory sick pay, which is peanuts !
4:16 pm
nancethefan
ok - who has a clue in their icon?
4:16 pm
Pinikula
It really torques me when faculty come back and ask me how my summer way...academics are just no normal (no offense to any who may be here)...
4:17 pm
Aussieme
Nut does, and Nance does and Pyro does !
4:17 pm
nancethefan
lol ice - what the heck isthat?
4:17 pm
Aussieme
you has a clue as your icon Nut !
