12:57 am

pigeonman

Well, mrp, let's just say that in the past it's been heavily frowned upon in the first hour.

12:57 am

pigeonman

And that's fine also. I wasn't really asking for a clue, just whining out loud.

12:57 am

mrpresident

glad those 'first hour frowners' don't start in the first hour anymore!

MonkeyGames

Hi! Back from the kitchen. Walter regarded the ice cream dubiously and said he wouldn't eat it and i reminded him that he has been bugging me for months about this and he made it himself and it's his favorite flavor so he was darned well going to try it. ow he's headed swiftly toward needing a second bowl of it.

2:54 am

MonkeyGames

HI SPRITE!

hiya Andree and chickie and MonkeyG too :)

2:56 am

MonkeyGames

Got to try to keep him a little quite today if possible. So I'm glad he's eating the ice cream.

2:56 am

Kazzer99

morning all - grid looks interesting today

2:56 am

chickieo8

hi J not to bad :)

2:56 am

MonkeyGames

Not bad at all so far, but I am only at 29 words so no promises.

2:57 am

hi 99 it is :)

o darn, and an icon theme. Have been bad yesterday evening, went to bed without changing it.

2:59 am

chickieo8

I do belive the whole world is wakeing up :)

3:01 am

MonkeyGames

Anyone know how long one leaves the tape over a wound that was glued closed? They forgot to tell me last night and my doctor's on vacation. I can call another one though...

3:01 am

mrpresident

at least till it is peeling off

3:01 am

mrpresident

then you have to replace the tape

3:01 am

tinks

sorry monkey - i have no idea. would guess at a few days tho

3:01 am

MonkeyGames

OK, that's about what I figured.

3:01 am

chickieo8

glued closed??

3:02 am

mrpresident

get 'micropore' tape from the chemist

3:02 am

mrpresident

yes, they glue close kids wounds

3:02 am

MonkeyGames

Oh, replace it... I'll call. We are talking about a 1 cm long, but quite deep forehead wound.

3:02 am

MonkeyGames

Yes, chickie, they did that at the ER.

3:02 am

mrpresident

yes, replace the tape...

3:02 am

Birdeee

steri strips

3:03 am

MonkeyGames

OK. Nobody said. I will call a doctor later just to get more info. All they told me was keep it dry for a couple of days...

3:03 am

chickieo8

I see,i've never heard of that before. :0

3:03 am

tinks

my dad had his head glued closed - left it until it wore off

3:03 am

Birdeee

I meant if it is steri strips and not tape you can leave it on for a few days at least

3:03 am

MonkeyGames

OK!

3:03 am

mrpresident

monkey, leave it there till it falls off

3:03 am

tinks

didn't wash it for a few days tho

3:04 am

MonkeyGames

It is whatever transparant-like tape or strip they put over stitched wounds.

3:04 am

MonkeyGames

Will do, Mr. P! That was my instinct too.

3:04 am

mrpresident

yes, that is steri-strips

3:04 am

tinks

just leave it monkey until it goes

3:04 am

Birdeee

sounds like steri strips - you can leave those on for weeks

3:05 am

rolin

apparently super glue was invented at the time of the vietnam war to make wounds seal as quickly as possible

3:05 am

tinks

be gentle with it in the meantime

3:05 am

mrpresident

if you google micropore... that is for scars to heal properly

3:05 am

MonkeyGames

OK, good. Because he gets a rash from regular band aids; glad this is different.

3:05 am

chickieo8

hi rolin :)

3:06 am

MonkeyGames

I am being overwhelmingly gentle with it but he is, well, four, so I am having to constantly intervene: he was about to drag his sirt collar over it this morning...

3:06 am

MonkeyGames

Will look up micropore.

3:06 am

MonkeyGames

Trying to keep him quiet for at least one day...

3:06 am

sprite

ok icon theme updated and all. Now to find my first word!

3:07 am

chickieo8

how did he get hurt monkey?

3:07 am

MonkeyGames

Will hunt for a new icon in a bit!

3:07 am

mrpresident

well done sprite!
Maddison said they had a lot of fun!

3:07 am

sprite

Caya feels the same :)

3:08 am

MonkeyGames

He was helping set the table and he turned around to head for the kitchen, tripped and went right down. I think he banged his head on the vacuum cleaner. No concussion.

3:08 am

tinks

lol - that's kids for you monkey. i suspect the glue will hold - just let him get on with stuff. he should be ok for normal day to day stuff as long as you don't scrub it which i don't expect you would :-)

3:08 am

mrpresident

Monkey, I had my portacath removed... I have to put micropore over my scar for three months, but that is on my breast... different type of skin to the face.
Still, ask about covering the scar so that it minimizes the scarring

3:09 am

chickieo8

ouch,poor little guy!! :(

3:09 am

sprite

not alltogether sure about this grid. Are there actually more than 10 words in it?

3:09 am

MonkeyGames

No, will NOT be scrubbing it! It's just that he is a little pale. I'm not tring to make him sit still or anything, but I did decide to skip the daily trip to jump off tree stumps and generally raise havoic in the woods with the dog. We can all survive skipping one day.

3:09 am

tinks

dad's wound was on the top of his head. he's old and quite fragile but it healed very well with just the one glue application

3:09 am

mrpresident

funny enough, I only have 10 words sprite!

3:09 am

sprite

lol mrP!

3:09 am

sprite

same brick wall?

3:09 am

MonkeyGames

Good to know, Mr. P, and i will definitely inform myself about that!

3:10 am

mrpresident

nah,,, I talk too much!

3:10 am

MonkeyGames

This one is close enough to the hairline that he won't get called Harry Potter later...

3:10 am

mrpresident

Monkey, we can exchange home goods war stories!!

3:10 am

MonkeyGames

OK!

3:10 am

tinks

harry p might have been quite cool :-)

3:11 am

sprite

*kicks self into wordfinding gear*

MonkeyG, Tim has a scar over his eyebrow from trying to stop a canoe with his head. But it looks sexy.

3:11 am

Kazzer99

they glued my sons head together and the instructions were to leave the tape on for a few days to let it settle - mind you rich managed to do exactly the same thing in almost the same place 4 week later and then they had to stitch which lead to much wailing and squirming on his partb(and mine) as they dont use locals on little kids here

3:11 am

mrpresident

Maddison did a swan dive off the lounge into an airconditioner unit...

3:12 am

mrpresident

they don't use locals?? how unusual!

3:12 am

MonkeyGames

Ouch, ouch... How do we survive to grow up? I was a concussion expert until I was 7 or so, myself.

3:12 am

tinks

kids seem to be so unaware of danger - i haven't any of my own but my friends lad seems to have a habit of aiming his head at things...

3:13 am

sprite

they do not often use them here either, mrP. Not if they can stitch it with a few stitches. The local can be very painful too.

3:13 am

Kazzer99

Apparently little uns skin heals remarkably quickly but local slows the effect down and they bleed for a lot longer with a local

3:13 am

sprite

could someone please remove the platypus from the grid?

3:13 am

MonkeyGames

I had almost the same injury as Walter has now only quite a lot worse when I was his age. I reemmber every detail about the event. What I was doing and why, why I fell, what people around me said, the IV, the discussion at the hospital about whether to stitch or hitch... I epect he'll remember this too.

3:14 am

Andree

my 34 year old son has just had a nose reconstruction, specialist said he must have broken it when young!!! i must have been dozing on the job as i had no idea

3:15 am

MonkeyGames

Oh wow! Walter fell right on his nose a couple of weeks ago (I'm blaming a growth spurt for all this, as he is usually extremely well balanced and never fell as a toddler). Hope I don't hear something like that when he's 34...

3:15 am

mrpresident

or he didn't tell you about the punch up at school!!

3:15 am

tinks

andree - i had a habit of bashing my nose as a kid - maybe that's why i sonore now...

3:16 am

Andree

thats how it got fixed tinks, his wife kicked him out of bed till he did something about the snoring

3:16 am

MonkeyGames

OK, Walter wants to play this card game now, so it's off with me for a while. Have fun folks!

3:17 am

tinks

lol andree - i've always hated my nose, it does have a bump of displaced bone if you feel it. maybe i'd qualify for a nose job on the nhs :-)

3:17 am

tinks

take care monkey and watler

3:17 am

Andree

the specialist found a tumour in one side and deviated septum on the other, he said he did not know how he could breath

3:18 am

tinks

wow - that's extreme andree

3:19 am

Andree

my little joke was to ask him why he didn't get a different nose

3:20 am

tinks

lol!

3:20 am

tinks

presumably he's ok now?

3:21 am

sprite

bye Monkey and Walter

3:21 am

Andree

surgery these days is amazing, other than not being able to do any lifting for a couple of months and making sure he doesn't bump his nose he looked pefectly normal christmas day, 5 days after surgery

3:22 am

Andree

i can remember patients from my nusing days looking like they were beaten up

3:22 am

tinks

that's good news

3:23 am

chickieo8

bye guys lol

3:23 am

tinks

take care chickie

3:23 am

that is incredible, Andree. And don't feel bad about not noticing, broken noses are hard to diagnose. Mine was broken by bumping into a glass wall at work and I worked almost all day before the company doctor came over and said it was broken.
I had instinctively put it back straight on after the collision and he said that was all there could be done anyway, it had to heal by itself.
