1:08 am

I gave I a brief summary of responses to transfers the other day (she hasn't a clue) and begged her to read it. Talked to her on the phone and she said she had done so, but in trying to discuss it she didn't even know what it was about and thought it was about the 2NT 12-15 point count response

Frustrating.

Oh, fingers and toes crossed, sprite!
1:58 am

thanks jilli. I have a bad feeling about it... not the feeling it is something dreadful, but the feeling they couldn't reallly find the cause. So I am glad with your fingers and toes!

oh good idea, I will. Will be late tonight though, because afterwards I go to my sister's.

ok, 9 hours even then. When I get home tonight, it will still be afternoon at yours. All will be well :D

2:07 am

lovely. It is wonderful, how strongly one can feel the support from babble friends. It really helps.
2:10 am
jillibus

Interesting that you were thinking we were 6 hours apart -- maybe for grid time, which is Central. We have 4 time zones here -- Eastern, Central, Mountain, and Pacific. I'm in the Pacific zone.
2:11 am
jillibus

Actually, we have another one -- Newfoundland, which is a half hour diffrence from Eastern!
2:12 am

I am always finding it hard to get everybody's time straight. It is not my strong suit, lol.
2:13 am

omg 5 time zones in one country. Craziness!
2:13 am

and half an hour difference is extra tough. Most zones are in full hours.

How much snow have you had in Vermont?
5:17 am
Eva

yesterday we had about 2 inches. We had the same about a month ago but of course it went away. Very odd. There was a record set yesterday for the latest snow to fall in Burlington.
5:17 am
Merk

My family got 15" back in Michigan yesterday ... yikes! That will likely stay to make a white Christmas
5:17 am
Eva

yikes indeed!
5:18 am
Merk

That is unusual ... no snow ever registered before December 6 ever ....
5:19 am
Eva

Usually by Thanksgiving there is some significant coverage on the ground. If this keeps up there will be damage to plants, but has also been oddly warm a lot of the time too.
5:20 am

ty, now the question is ... do I bother going back to bed? It's almost 5:30 here.
5:25 am
Eva

done!
5:25 am
lynxxx

Congrats Eva!
5:25 am
Eva

can you fall back to sleep this late? I wonder that the incidence of insomnia is among babblers. Seems to be high
5:25 am
Merk

wtg, Eva
5:26 am
Merk

It certainly is for me.
5:27 am
Eva

For one thing there is a preponderance of women of a "certain" age -where insomnia is often an issue.
5:29 am
Eva

And more and more I know how critical getting enough sleep is to everything else. I finally gave in a couple of years ago to taking a small amount of medication and it has made a huge difference. I wish I could sleep well without it, but had tried everything else-all the herbal cures, etc and none of them helped.
5:29 am
Merk

I fall right to sleep at night, but if the furnace turns on toward morning, it seems to wake me up. Or else I have to use the bathroom, and if I look at the clock, I am doomed.
5:31 am
Eva

same here. Or, if as happened last night, on the way back from the bathroom I step on a deal mole someone had thoughtfully left on the rug next to the bed and it pops and you have to scrape molage off the bottom of your foot.
5:31 am
Eva

that was "dead" mole
5:32 am
Merk

gross ... I take it you have a gift-giving feline
5:32 am
lynxxx

and would that someone be Merp?
5:33 am
Eva

very generous 3 moles in the past couple of weeks. Don't know what they are doing inside of the house. Must have been a nest and I hope this is the end of them. If it was my human partner I'd be in big trouble lynxxx
5:34 am
Scrabbler

Hello Babble buddies.
5:34 am
lynxxx

hi Scrabs
5:34 am
Merk

Hey, Scrabbler, where you been?
5:35 am
Eva

of course for a cat, gifting someone with a mole is giving something that you don't like, so the generosity is dubious. A bit more like "Here-I don't know what to do with this as I find it inedible so would you please make it go away?" Hi scrabbler
5:35 am
Scrabbler

I've been checking e-mail, facebook, the news, etc. Now I can Babble.
5:35 am
Merk

Here, it would be mice. I haven't had a mole in my yard in 30 plus years, when they made a tunnel and ate all but one of my tulip bulbs.
5:35 am
Merk

I saw you were here when I was alone in the Chat box for what seemed like ages. There must have been a lot of people lunching or drinking coffee.
5:36 am
Eva

Funny-I've never had garden problems with the moles. Lots of trouble with deer, chipmunk, slugs, earwigs, but not moles.
5:36 am
Scrabbler

I never log out of here so it always shows that I am on-line.
5:36 am
Scrabbler

What are earwigs?
5:36 am
Eva

the sky is finally getting lighter-at 6:30. I have to keep telling myself that we are only a couple of weeks away from the solstice.
5:37 am
Merk

My daughter had three cats for a brief time in her life. She and her hubby woke up to such a racket one night and it was the cats chasing each other to see who would capture the mouse. They ended up gifting it while it was still alive.
5:37 am
Merk

Insects
5:37 am
lynxxx

I never log out either, does that mean I look like I am here even if laptop off?
5:37 am
Scrabbler

I think so, Lynxxx
5:37 am
Eva

earwigs are some of the more disgusting insects on the planet. They slither and have big pincers.
5:38 am
Scrabbler

*going to research earwigs*
5:39 am
Eva

they eat rotting vegetation and last summer was so incredibly wet here that we had a plague of them. They love lettuce especially and hide in the inner leaves to come out and cause shrieking when one is washing the lettuce off.
5:39 am
lynxxx

and once you have earwigs, you have them for life! luckily usually outside
5:39 am
Scrabbler

Eeeeew, those posterior pincers are creepy!
5:39 am
Merk

Yup, you are here. I do the same thing.
5:40 am
Eva

last summer they moved in. One fell out of my checkbook. I mean it rained for about 2 months straight so the garden was something of a bust anyway, except for the early crops.
5:40 am
Merk

Oh, yuck, I'm suddenly glad it's winter and I'm not harvesting lettuce.
5:40 am
Eva

yes, that is something to be thankful for
5:41 am
Merk

The only thing comparable that I heard is from my Dad. Before I was born, he owned a produce store. Tarantulas would come in hidden in the huge bunches of bananas. Ponder that for awhile.
5:42 am
Merk

Think of all the ships that come in with produce and reefers from Mexico. There must be all manner of insects arriving with it. How do the corral them all? I suppose the big warehouses all get treated regularly.
5:43 am
lynxxx

They would all be sprayed wouldn't they? Where is DC when you want him - he would know
5:43 am
Eva

much worse. That is still a problem apparently. When I volunteered in a zoo for a while one of my jobs was misting the tarantula cage, for which one had to open the front pane of glass. After a couple of traumatic incidents I refused. I love reptiles, so the snakes, lizards, etc were fine, and I could make myself deal with th African hissing cockroaches ( I mean really-why would anyone keep one of those as pets?!), but not spiders. I draw the line at spiders.
5:45 am
Merk

A science teacher in the jr. high where I student taught had a tarantula for a pet. On the days he brought it to school, he would let it climb his or anyone's arm. I politely declined.
5:45 am
Eva

eeeewwww

Scrabbler

5:48 am
Merk

Well, I'd better be off to make some breakfast. See you tomorrow.
5:48 am
Eva

seems like the worst of the swine flu has passed here, unless there is going to be another round later. My friends with children all seem to be back from plague land, and the kids were finally vaccinated in school last week. Vaccine delivery in Vermont was seriously screwed up! And there has been no seasonal flu vaccine for months. I had to get some from out of state.
5:49 am
Eva

bye merk
5:50 am
Eva

Have you seen a diminishing of cases in your practice scrabbler?
5:51 am
Eva

okay, everyone's wandering off so think I will too.
5:53 am
Scrabbler

H1N1 activity was highest here from 2nd week in October through 2nd wk of Nov---5 local kids died. Yes, the production + distribution of seasonal + H1N1 vaccines have been a public health failure.
5:55 am
crosshair

good morning everyone;)
5:55 am
Scrabbler

Hi Crossy! And GM to your lovely wife, Elegant.
5:56 am
Eva

That's so sad about the 5 kids. Did you treat any of them? How much was there really a screw up in production and distribution and how much was this just too overwhelming a task? Here they did the seasonal flue vaccine in early October and since I had a virus then I couldn't get it and by the time I was well enough there was none. Seems strange that they still have it in NH, Mass and NY but not in Vt
5:56 am

same here,by the time the shots became available to the general public,it was too late

6:02 am

I've still got to have my shot
6:03 am
Eva

a couple of my friends, who have kids with asthma, took them out of school for a couple of months until they had been vaccinated.
6:03 am
crosshair

but there is the incubation period till the shots start to work,so id not delay
6:03 am
Scrabbler

And take your vitamin D (www.vitamindcouncil.org)
6:03 am
Atalante

they decided they couldn't give it to me last weekend *sigh*
6:04 am
Eva

what dosage do you think scrabbler? I've increased to 2500 iu a day. Do you think that's enough?
6:04 am
Scrabbler

I am taking 5000 IU/day for the winter.
6:05 am
crosshair

im a good boy srabbs,taking my vitamins,taking my glucosamine and my probiotics
6:05 am
Scrabbler

I believe that Dr Cannell, on that web site, suggests 5000 IU/d to boost immune system and avoid flu.
6:05 am
Eva

thanks for letting me know. Are there any possible side effects from taking too much that one should know about?
6:05 am
Scrabbler

Good Crossy.
6:06 am
Atalante

or 14,000 IU/d if you have MS and want to try it
6:06 am
Scrabbler

There is belief that MS, cancer rates are higher in those with vit D deficiency
6:07 am
Eva

since I began having gall bladder problems and then had it removed I've had a really hard time with taking fish oil supplements, which is a problem because they really help with inflammation - any thoughts about how to handle that?
6:07 am
Scrabbler

I have no GB and take enteric coated fish oil capsules
6:07 am
Atalante

some MS studies suggest up to 20,000IU/d, but more say 14,000. Sounds horrid

Yes, "indigestion", but I avoid fatty food whenever possible
6:10 am

You are like my brother, Crossy. He is 44. My mother never gave us cod liver oil.
6:10 am

So do I - dairy especially - but the fish oil has been a real loss so I'm glad to hear that there may be a solution.

NonnieLight

yoos guys--I agree!
7:41 am
Trifioso

hello sue!
7:42 am
suefrad625

if Cunt can be a word, mega should be allowed
7:43 am
hego

I still can't believe that one.
7:43 am
suefrad625

it really bothers me
7:44 am
hego

Me too!
7:44 am
suefrad625

it has to be the most filthy word on the planet
7:44 am
NonnieLight

Me too!
7:44 am
hego

Very offensive
7:44 am
Anniebrook

when I first started babbling I was so taken aback when I saw that word that I typed it into the chatlog...you can imagine the teasing I got
7:45 am
suefrad625

There are just some words never to be said or typed, like the N word
7:45 am
hego

Hmmm, I wonder if they accept the male equivalents.
7:45 am
suefrad625

the C word, in my humble opinion, is on that level
7:45 am
NonnieLight

lol annie. I leave it for the last because I can never remember if it is "acceptable" or not.
7:45 am
hego

Annie that's funny.
7:46 am

7:48 am

emmmm meatloaf!
7:48 am
suefrad625

my finace has a son (29) with Bipolar and addiction issues. Now I can hear in his voice that he is tired of me pointing out the red flags (since I grew up in NY in a house with both issues). What do I do, walk away because he is resenting me or shut up and stay and live with his ignorance and how it will affect us in later years?
7:50 am
hego

That's a tough one, Sue.
7:50 am
Anniebrook

That is a hard way to live.
7:50 am
NonnieLight

Tough one, Sue. What does your fiance have to say about this?
7:50 am
Atalante

walk away
7:50 am
hego

And only you can decide. You know your own tolerance level.
7:51 am
hego

Your future hapiness is at stake here.
7:51 am
Judi

Morning, all. Sue - is is your fiance or his son who is complaining?
7:51 am
suefrad625

my fiance
7:51 am
NonnieLight

Good morning, judi!
7:51 am
hego

Hi Judi
7:51 am
Anniebrook

Hi Judi
7:51 am
suefrad625

he thinks it is an assault on both his manhood and fatherhood
7:52 am
hego

Wow! I'm starting to agree with Ata.
7:53 am
Anniebrook

It sounds like your fiance will not accept the seriousness of his son's addiction and illness. How many children do you want?
7:54 am
jmcnrick

hi all
7:54 am
suefrad625

NONE
7:54 am
Atalante

I only say walk away because it's not going to change unless the son wants to change. You can't tell ppl with bipolar that they need to do x, y, and z. And if he won't change, the situation with your fiance won't change
7:54 am
suefrad625

I am 45 he is 51
7:54 am
Judi

He's clearly in over his head with his son living with him. There may be some enabling going on there too. Unless he's willing to get professional help for him - both for the mental illness and the addiction - the situation will only get worse. We went through it with my sister. Fortunately, she was entirely capable of living on her own.
7:54 am
suefrad625

his son just got out of rehab after 57 days and thinks everything is fine and dandy now
7:55 am
suefrad625

my fiance doesnt see this as a lifetime problem
7:56 am
suefrad625

son is on meds,but Dale (fiance) doesnt know the rules of the issues and listens to his son about them
7:56 am
Anniebrook

sue, I didnt mean you actually having children. What I meant was if the situation stays the same both of them will act as children and you will bear the burden
7:56 am
jmcnrick

better to walk away now than to walk away when things are in turmoil
7:56 am
suefrad625

it is crazy that a bipolar thinks he doesnt need therapy, but signs up to the YMCA
7:56 am
suefrad625

oh
7:56 am
suefrad625

whew annie
7:56 am
Judi

Is the son able to work or is he on disability?
7:56 am
suefrad625

dont know Judi
7:57 am
jmcnrick

but you may want to try couples therapy with fiance
7:57 am
suefrad625

able or wants are two different things
7:57 am
Atalante

bipolar people often don't belive they need meds / therapy
7:58 am
jmcnrick

hey if someone would support me I am not sure I would work either
7:58 am
suefrad625

Plus I think he has been on drugs a while and would gander that taken off all the meds and reavaluated may prove very helpful and telling
7:58 am
Judi

My point exactly. Sounds like the fiance has more sympathy than common sense. Time to throw down the gauntlet. No marriage unless the 29 year old son goes to live on his own.
7:58 am
suefrad625

judi, what does that do except cost more
7:58 am
Anniebrook

His son needs to be in a 12 step program
7:58 am
jmcnrick

or at least until there is extensive couples theorpy
7:58 am
Link

bipolar is a lifetime illness, treatable but not curable be very careful
7:58 am
suefrad625

son would NOT live with us in anycase
7:59 am
Atalante

very treatable, but not if he's addicted to other things
7:59 am
Judi

It is possible he will be elible for state assistance in terms of evaluation and treatment. There's probably a lot of paperwork hoops to jump through - but it may be well worth it for all involved.
8:00 am
Link

and not if neither is willing to recognize the illness
8:00 am
jmcnrick

judi has a point -- its a lot harder to accept the responsibility of you adult life with or without bi-polar if you are being carried by your pa
8:00 am
jmcnrick

stand up to fiance first, then as a team stand up to son
8:00 am
suefrad625

exactly JMC
8:00 am
jmcnrick

if not, then walk away
8:01 am
suefrad625

thank you all for your thoughts, it really helps a lot
8:01 am
suefrad625

I am calling Shrink now to set up a couples meeting
8:01 am
Judi

Once my sister was signed up with the state, an advocate was assigned to her. Adv helped her get housing, a job, meds, etc.etc. It was a God send.
8:02 am
Atalante

biploar is a strange disease that some people - like my "darling" husband have no concept of actually existing . being life-changing / life-threatening
8:02 am
jmcnrick

yw now will someone reclue the 8 -- it disappeared from the chog right as I showed up -- the price + what?
8:02 am
jmcnrick

ack I have 2 minutes before I have to leave for work!

why wsn't teary a word?
3:03 pm

Well, since I don't often get sick (it's actually rather rare) and I work at a Uni...she was adamant that I "take of yourself" before coming back in! :)
3:03 pm
Pinikula

try typing it again, Kap
3:03 pm
jillibus

Cassi, does your boss want people to spread their viruses to everyone else by going to work sick?
3:03 pm

yea, my company consists of 9 ppl... so they do weird things
3:03 pm
zoozzoom

PB for you Kap..lol
3:04 pm
Kaplan the Magne

Oops again. I thought it rejected the word
3:04 pm
Cassi

my boss is a nurse anesthetist and she said "I don't believe in getting sick" and I was like... you're a nurse
3:04 pm
Pinikula

I'm the only staff member in my department! (other than workstudy students who are doing a wonderful job holding down the fort while I'm out)
3:06 pm
MPittore

Cassi...even on the news (and CDC) they are announcing not to go to work sick and how it spreads so many illnesses...very surprising for a health care boss to be like that...I worked at one of the most prestigious health facilities in the world NIH and they would never say that. She should get with the program!
3:07 pm
Pinikula

it really is rather surprising coming from a nurse
3:07 pm
Cassi

well, I work at a medical staffing company... so she practices outside of the office.
3:07 pm
Cassi

yeah, we were all pretty shocked
3:07 pm
crosshair

yes,i had the h1n1 and just quarrantined bith the wife and i for 11 days to prevent spreading
3:07 pm
Pinikula

I'll bet that was a nice "vacation", crossy ;)
3:08 pm

the main difference i saw between it and a regular flu is how the fever cycles every 2 days or so it seems to regroup and counter attack
3:09 pm
crosshair

nor reallt pini
3:09 pm
crosshair

darn typos
3:09 pm
Pinikula

I understood, crossy! :)
3:10 pm
Pinikula

so, what are the "symptoms" of the h1n1 flu v reg flu v cold?
3:10 pm
crosshair

lol pini,many of the babble girls were hard on me and my typos this morning..seems all i was doing was correcting myself;/
3:11 pm
crosshair

like i say lini you get fevers of around 101-103 and then every 2 dyas or so it seems to clear ,then it comes back,lots of chest congestion
3:11 pm
Pinikula

Well, you do know that I'm fluent in Typonese...and, besides, when someone corrects a letter or something it only draws my attention back to pick at what I missed.
3:11 pm
crosshair

LOTS of chest congetstion
3:11 pm
Cassi

yummy
3:12 pm
MPittore

I think typos are a good thing...it gives us all a little spark when we find one and we say..."oh there is a typo" and we feel a little smarter if only for a second or so...you can always find the positive in anything if you just look for it!
3:14 pm
Pinikula

Well, whatever I have is apparently staging itself. Last Wed = fever, headache; Thur = better; Fri = went to work for a few hours; Sat = did nothing to ensure "it" was going away; Sun = developed low key productive cough; Mon = low key productive cough and sinus stuffiness...
3:14 pm
Pinikula

...does that sound more like a cold?
3:16 pm
jillibus

I wish I could post a chart I got via email showing the difference between a cold and the flu -- stuffiness, sneezing and sore throats are NOT common with the flu
3:16 pm
Cassi

can someone clue me on re 6,21 and re7,32

that'd be great, jilli!!!

3:22 pm

3:22 pm

and dont bother with antibiotocs with it,it does not help,makes things worse actually
3:23 pm
jillibus

I'm baffled by my ailment -- sounds like flu but no fever! Occasional chills, yes.
3:23 pm
crosshair

i did neo-citrin,vicks vapo-rub,lots of chicken soup and tylenol for the fevers
3:23 pm

just the ventolin,but if the dr really hears you rattling he may give you a steroid inhaler as well
3:25 pm

3:25 pm

3:25 pm

3:25 pm
jillibus

thanks, crossy.
3:26 pm

I went to the doc today and he listened to my chest, then said to get an X-ray because there was something "not normal" there, which might be an old fibroid or something else. "You're not going to crap out over this, are you?" he said. "You're a fighter." I wonder what he's trying to say.
