Thanks Carlee, I didn't make a fuss when it happened so everyone here thinks it was no big deal (also my niece started crying so I wanted her to be ok) no they tell me not to make a big deal!

oh no herin
4:34 am

I am so sorry Herin, are you OK?
4:34 am
herinfernallady

Carlee she had CF she didn't get her transplant in time. Yes I am fine. It is just sad
4:35 am
herinfernallady

She was in Israel
4:35 am
Michnick

People with CF live longer now then they once did, but it is so hard when the lungs do fail. There aren't enough organ donors in Israel.
4:35 am
carleekat

am sorry carlee
4:36 am
carleekat

says* carlee
4:36 am

No there isn't Mich that is why her Husband and family did that piece to promote donation
4:36 am
carleekat

is 5:30 am
4:37 am
herinfernallady

I guess with her and NB passing makes me realise that we really don't need our organs when we die
4:39 am
Michnick

It was a great piece, but it takes a lot to change people. Also I don't know exactly where Jewish law stands with organ donation. I am now very motivated to find out. I have a close friend who needs a hear/kidney translpant. They will do a kidney transplant but all the potential donors have not worked out.

4:40 am
joem

I have had 2 kidney transplants in the last 17 years and I am very grateful to all the selfless people who donate organs
4:40 am
Michnick

I will ask my Rabbi today and let you know. I don't think I am healthy enough to be a donor for most of my organs (kidneys, lungs) but my eyes and heart should be OK.
4:41 am
herinfernallady

Mich I have heard that cadaver skin is useful too. Though that thought freaks me out slightly
4:41 am
carleekat

i woke up...will go back to bed in a bit
4:41 am
Michnick

That's fantastic Joem, were they live donors? Have you met them? I have a few friends/acquaintances that have donated kidneys.
4:42 am
Michnick

I don't know why skin should freak us out more than any other body part. In jewish law the issue is on respect of the dead. Autopsies are a complete NO NO, so I'd have to find out where organ donation is on the spectrum, I would imagine if it were done in a respectful way....? I really don't know.
4:43 am
herinfernallady

That is it really is a matter of respect
4:44 am
joem

No, both were road accident victims. I did not meet them but wrote to the families. only know 1 was 38 with 2 children, the other was just a 21 year old lad.
4:44 am
Michnick

On the other hand, there is the whole ehtical question that "My Sister's Keeper" brings up. I had a friend that when her daughter was diagnosed with leukemia said that she was sorry she hadn't had more kids so the potential donor pool could have been bigger.
4:44 am
herinfernallady

Joem that is wonderful for you and a gift from those families
4:45 am
Michnick

I would imagine it is a comfort for the families.
4:46 am

OBJECT
To list as many words of the highest point value as you can find among the random assortment of letters in the cube grid.
PLAYING
Search the puzzle board for words of four letters or more. When you find a word, add it to your list using the form below the puzzle. Words are formed from adjoining letters. Letters must join in the proper sequence to spell a word. They may join horizontaly, vertically or diagonally to the left, right, up or down. No letter cube, however may be used more than once within a single word.
TYPES OF WORDS ALLOWED
The only words that are allowed are those that can be found in the Enable dictionary. You may look for any type of word - noun, verb, adjective, adverb, etc. Plural nouns are acceptable, as are all verb tenses. Words within words are also allowed. (e.g. revolt and volt)
TYPES OF WORDS NOT ALLOWED
Proper nouns, abbreviations, contractions, hyphenated words and foreign words that are not in the Enable Dictionary.
SCORING AND WINNING
Every night at midnight CT, the day's puzzle closes. The high score list for the day will then appear showing everyone's total score.
SCORING
Each tile has a point value. To determine the score for a word, the point-value for the length of the word is multiplied by the total letter values for the word:
4-letter word = 1 x Points
5-letter word = 2 x Points
6-letter word = 3 x Points
7-letter word = 4 x Points
8-letter word = 5 x Points
9-letter word = 6 x Points
Example:
Word: BABBLE
Points: 3 x (3+1+3+3+1+1)
Total: 36 pts.
The winner is the player who has the highest point total when the puzzle closes.
THINGS TO REMEMBER
* The same word found in two different areas of the puzzle may not be used.
* The "Qu" cube counts as two letters.
* Points are awarded for both the singular and plural forms of a noun

10:19 am

Try oatmeal baths for itching and calamine lotion. Sarna lotion is very good for itching, but costs a whole lot of $$
10:20 am
car.eeyore

Talked to the oncall pediatrician last night. He said I was doing everything right and that the hives could last 4-5 days. He did give me his cell phone number in case Dylan begins to have any trouble breathing. when he was coughing so much last night I got very nervous.
10:20 am
car.eeyore

Did the oatmeal bath too.
10:20 am

LOTS of oatmeal baths! not just one or two

I use Arbonne Herbal Diaper Rash Cream...the stuff is awesome for so many things. Unfortunately, it does make him look very pasty!

hi all...my mother had hives lately (no known allergies, but she's been under great stress)..dr told her to take Claritin and Zantac (they work on different histamines).
10:23 am
car.eeyore

The MD did not recommend anything other than Benadryl. Do you think I should call him and ask him about it?
10:23 am
Nef

allergic reactions have 4 levels: rash or hives, swelling of mucus membranes (puffy eyes and lips, etc) swelling around mouth and tongue and then respiratory collapse. If his eyes and lips are puffy, take him in
10:23 am
Krista

depends on the dr...with some docs, if it's not their idea, they poo poo it
10:24 am

OK Nef. I will keep an eye on it. There are hives around his eyes and mouth but not inside.

Zach has absolutely NO signs of being sick, but I would hate to contaminate others.
10:49 am

Unless it's chicken pox, car, I would think it wouldn't be communicable, so I would think Zach would be ok. I don't suppose you can decide after seeing the doc...

Oh, sorry...he's not the sick one. I'd let him go, personally. Are hives ever contagious?

Hi Cos!

can't think it's anything contagious...most of the time they never know what causes hives anyway

see from your post it cant - the only thing that can look like hives is chickenpox as somebody else mentioned and i think it might be safer not too as you have just said she is pregnant - but its difficult to dissappoint your kids
10:52 am
Krista

"hives are not contagious, but the triggers of hives can be contagious" (Google)...chicken pox are blisters...really don't look like hives, IMO

I think calling the mom and seeing what she thinks would be a good idea - don't want to show up and then hear you shouldn't have...

It definitely isn't chicken pox.

Not knowing what it is, I would not bring him to a pregnant woman's house. That's just me.
10:54 am
cybernan

if it hasn't beem diagnosed by an md I think you should play it safe and keep him home. There are several roseola type rashes that are contagious.
10:54 am
Kaplan the Magne

Oh, if the mom is pregnant, I would be extra careful.
10:54 am

Molly...I am really tending to agree with you. It would be the RIGHT thing to do and keep Zach away.

I once took my daughter to a play suspecting she had chickenpox- and she did- and it was wrong of me ...but we had these tickets...it is years ago, and I still can't believe I did it
10:56 am
Kaplan the Magne

My reasoning was, well, what if she broke out with chickenpox while we were already at the play- I'd still be out...
10:56 am
rururocks

thank you
10:56 am

but then part of me is wondering if I am over reacting and it may just be hives.

hi - just read back a little - car have you talked to him about touching something or maybe walking thru smoke from someone burning trash? Did he eat somethimg? Drink? All over is very extreme.
10:59 am
Krista

lol
10:59 am
MollyL

Well, other than some new something he's used, soap, cream, etc. or something he got into outside...I"m stumped.
10:59 am
MollyL

New laundry soap?
10:59 am
car.eeyore

no new soaps, creams, shampoos, detergents.
10:59 am
car.eeyore

It may have been a spider bite.
10:59 am
MollyL

New clothes that haven't been washed?
11:00 am

And did the doctor suggest aspirin or some other pain killer to tame the itch?
11:00 am
rururocks

did he eat pineapple, mango or anything like that?
11:00 am
DR1965

is he allergic to bees?
11:00 am
car.eeyore

But what he thought was a bug bite may have been a hive.
11:00 am

11:01 am
uusue2

all over suggests something systemic, like food, rather than something he came in contact with (but I have no specialized medical knowledge, am just thinking out loud)
11:02 am
Krista

funny, cos...my Mom was thinking that's what caused hers at first..they came out after she ate a mango..but have happened a few times since then, sans mango..stress, methinks....I agree with my armchair degree, uusue...not like a contact reaction at all
11:02 am
car.eeyore

I am sure that in usual form, the doctor will say, "yup, it's hives" and send us home.
11:02 am
hootowl

Did he cut thru a neighbors yard where it had just been sprayed? Did a friend offer him a new food or treat? Have to cinsider lots of things.
11:02 am

I wouldn't take that for an answer Car. His reaction to whatever it is...is too severe.
11:03 am

that's it - he's allergic to snow! (sorry...)
11:03 am

i agree with molly... be aggressive if he just shrugs it off
11:03 am

first tr 6, please?
11:03 am

You don't make peace with your friends, you make peace with your enemies. That is a pun for an6.
11:04 am

nan, old roman coin
11:04 am
uusue2

And I agree with everybody else - insist on an answer, not just a treatment. Allergic reactions can worsen with repeated exposure, and you need to know what it is.
11:04 am
Krista

but with hives, they usually just treat them because sometimes they never come back...if they do, then they start looking into cause..it's just too difficult to pin down from one occurrence...at least that's what I've seen over the years
11:04 am
MollyL

Allergic to benadryl. Now isn't THAT ironic.
11:04 am
cosdem

thats what my doc said molly lol
11:05 am

that makes no sense. Could it be an additive in the benadryl, like the coloring?
11:06 am

OK. I just spoke to my mom...a retired doctor. She said that it should be fine for Zach to go to the party as he has absolutely no symptoms. I will also bring antibacterial hand cleanser with me in the car and have him clean his hands with it. Then I will come back and get Dylan and take him to the pediatrician's office.

Kaplan the Magne

OK
3:11 pm
stidmama

pretty boring... *sigh* but it meets the requirements for a master's in this program so it's getting done.
3:11 pm
stidmama

are you back to feeling okay kaplan? last I saw you for any time you were rather poorly
3:11 pm
uusue2

stid, I think that even if you don't exactly need the paper, the process is useful (as you pointed out). I could make large piles of stuff that I did as a student that weren't directly useful, but I am a better physicist and teacher for having done them.
3:12 pm
Kaplan the Magne

my dissertation title did not rival "Of Mice and Men"or"The Naked and the Dead"either.
3:13 pm
Kaplan the Magne

I'm ok stid thanks, although I can find something to complain about.
3:13 pm
uusue2

lol, kap - neither did mine, and it contained the mu word from today's puzzle which I nevertheless failed to spot.
3:13 pm
stidmama

yes, in some ways because I am not completely "into" the topic I think I am better able to separate my ego from the paper itself.
3:13 pm
stidmama

any other sub-atomic particles in the paper, sue? or the grid? I have the mu and the io
3:13 pm
Kaplan the Magne

Oh- let me go look for that one
3:14 pm
stidgmere

I didn't find mu**** as in teenage mu**** turtles in here uusue.
3:14 pm
Kaplan the Magne

Mine had he6 in the title. What a coincidence.
3:15 pm
uusue2

well, my dissertation was full of them, but no more in today's grid. there is a chemical element, though.
3:15 pm
stidmama

hm. substance abuse, kaplan?
3:15 pm
stidmama

so far the mi 6/24 is my fav word in the grid today
3:15 pm
uusue2

right, that's not it, gmere - it's an elementary particle. I have a list of physics babblets in my profile if you're interested.
3:15 pm
Kaplan the Magne

yes, even though I deconstructed the term "substance abuse."
3:16 pm
Kaplan the Magne

Me too.
3:16 pm
stidmama

LOL mother!
3:16 pm
stidgmere

ty uu, I may wander by to look as they do crop up in these grids with some regularity.
3:16 pm

that's a useful topic, and explains why you were so helpful explaining the nature of addiction that one time.
3:17 pm
stidmama

how fishy is the O word?
3:17 pm
uusue2

not at all fishy, stid
3:17 pm
Kaplan the Magne

I don't remember the specific instance, but it is something I go on and on about
3:17 pm

it's more of a suffix than a word, really
3:18 pm
Kaplan the Magne

Did anyone get away with murter?

Grandma Yetta was the same actress as Millie in the old Dick Van Dyke show.

pr8 = plural of pr7, what meats are high in (not carbs, for instance)

Nef

jmc, why did you argue?
7:33 pm
jmcnrick

yeah they gave me this and that and concluded that i had moderately high BP and moderately high colesteral
7:33 pm
jmcnrick

because i was tired from no sleeping and all their tests said nothing was really currently wrong
7:34 pm

ji4/11 sounds like a monkey
8:02 pm
MollyL

Red, did she chop it because you were throwing fits about getting it brushed?
8:02 pm

I always had to have pixie cuts when we were young because I had "impossible" hair

probably. I had/have very curly, sort of African-American hair and it hurts even now to brush it. but now I brush it not my Mom.
8:04 pm
redturtlehead

yeah I had the "Dorothy Hamill"
8:04 pm

I had a pixie cut because I chose to 'trim' my own hair...that and I LOVED Twiggy!!

My sister gave me awful pixie cuts. They look good on about 1% of females.

8:06 pm

I don't have girls. But if I did, I would give the child one of three options. Let me brush it, you brush it or it all gets cut off. I am, and always have been, a no BS Mom.

pr7/32 the 2nd is something there is a lot of in meat

funny... every spring my mother dragged me to some barber shop for what she called a pixie haircut. i hated it. never had a choice. So when my daughter had beautiful blonde shirley temple type curls, i let them grow, never cut her hair till she wanted it, and believe me brushing it was a real challenge
8:09 pm
Nef

you're probably right, Jilly. My Aunt had the 4 of us girls, our 2 younger brothers, a full time job; and no patience for any nonsense.

8:12 pm

my mom was always giving me permanents, which I hated. I wanted long straight hair, which is what my hair does if left alone, and which was the style when I was a teenager lo these many years ago...

Nite red, sweet dreams!
8:16 pm
MollyL

Oh my God. I can't imagine expecting a 4 year old to sit still for a perm. Bless you.
8:17 pm
Dorens

sue your mom and mine must have been friends... i got perms when the pixies were growing in, and I hated the smell of them (as well as the results) i had absolutely no self-determination growing up (at least in terms of my hair... which was red and i hated that too)
8:17 pm
uusue2

not only that but I had VERY stubborn hair, and she had to use the adult perms on me (her hair was naturally curly)
8:17 pm

8:21 pm
Dorens

yay jij
8:22 pm
Dorens

well .. they didn't dig flat chested girls until i was about 16, then the hair compensated, i guess
8:25 pm
Nef

Dorens, I didn't know that teen-aged boys liked flat-chested girls.

*dear* 28 year old daughter just had a screaming snit fit because she said her Dad was sarcastic and snotty to her! She stomped her feet and slammed the door just like when she was 5 years old! Sheesh!
9:11 pm
Nef

YAY, wv! WTG!!!
9:11 pm
Jillyjill

My *dear* 28 yr old son called today for money....trade you!!
9:12 pm
Pinikula

mine texted to see how life was going
9:12 pm
Pinikula

Out of the 3, I'll keep mine ;)
9:12 pm
Jillyjill

Nice pini!!
9:13 pm
Nef

No, Jilly, I just wish sometimes she would either grow up OR she was small enough to take privledges away from her (and sending to her room actually was a punsihment again!)
9:13 pm
Jillyjill

I keep thinking mine will get off on his own...he KNOWS his dad and I are now on a very limited income until we know if my sweetie qualifies for disability.
9:14 pm
Pinikula

raise their rents!
9:14 pm
Jillyjill

Oh, but we do love them don't we...*heavy sigh*
9:14 pm
Nef

at least if you say NO to him about money it might have some effect.
9:15 pm
Jillyjill

Well,next year will be better, he'll be going to ODU and living in the dorms...HOPEFULLY will learn to save for a rainy day.
9:16 pm
Jillyjill

He just needed a small amount to rent a car for the next week...then he's got spring break and hopefully his truck will be repaired by then
9:16 pm
Nef

Pini, our daughter had her paycheck garnished (or whatever it's called) for ignoring her bills. She had an abusive boyfriend, so she was a mess when she moved back home last year.
9:16 pm
Pinikula

oh, sorry to hear that, Nef...
9:16 pm
Jillyjill

It actually was a loan as he gets his GI bill payment this week.
9:17 pm
Nef

She is paying rent, and paying her bills, but her attitude kind of sucks when it's "that time of the month"
9:18 pm
Jillyjill

sorry nef, I can empathize, mine was in a marriage that was very emotionally abusive for him...he went back to her 4 times...thankfully finally separated on opposite coasts and divorced
9:18 pm
Nef

I just hate the 5 year old mentality when it shows up
9:19 pm
Pinikula

sorry to hear about yours, too, JJ
9:19 pm
Jillyjill

Well, not to defend her behavior but...I work with people who have very childish behavior at times...lol
9:19 pm
Pinikula

I work with profs who act like that ALL the time...
9:19 pm
Nef

we had seen her personality change; I'd always had the gut feeling that "he was a nice guy; but not right for MY daughter" and she hid the abuse from us quite well.
9:21 pm
Nef

LOL! Maybe I should be glad that she's got the gumpshun to be a 5 year old again? OMG, what a thought!!!
9:21 pm
Jillyjill

I truly now understand abused spouse syndrome....it was so hard to watch...it is so hard to see our children suffer.. :(
9:21 pm
Jillyjill

ROFL
9:22 pm
Jillyjill

Okay Nef, let's discuss doctor's behaviors....lol...there's a childish group!
9:22 pm
Nef

Ahh, Motherhood! Such a joy and sorrow!
9:23 pm
snags

we nurture them and bring them along to the point they should be able to stand on their own two feet.
9:23 pm
snags

So we do too much for them>
9:23 pm
snags

I think I did
9:23 pm
Jillyjill

HI snags!!
9:23 pm
snags

and am not treated with respect. so I guess I did it to myself
9:23 pm
snags

hi Jilly jill
9:24 pm
Nef

Jilly, I've had a few run-ins with docs in my day; but I think the last time I told a doc off was more than 8,9 years ago!
9:24 pm
Nef

hi snags
9:24 pm
snags

hello nef
9:24 pm
Jillyjill

I can say that mine really do treat us well and do appreciate what we have done/do for them. They are really good young men.
9:25 pm
snags

I have come to the conclusion, I am not a very nice person.
9:25 pm
snags

just feeling sorry for myself today..........
9:25 pm
Jillyjill

Nef, I work with 8 MD's; 2 of them are 'old school' and fairly difficult to work with at times. The younger new MD's are truly a joy!
9:25 pm
snags

tomorrow will be better
9:26 pm
Nef

my DH and I were both raised in poor families. We felt that since we could, we wanted to help our kids by doing a lot of stuff that we couldn't have when we were kids. That may have been a problem in the long run.
9:26 pm
Jillyjill

NO SNAGS...never say that!!
9:26 pm
Jillyjill

(((snags))) *hands snags chocolates*
9:26 pm
Nef

how can you say that snags? Because your kids say that?
9:27 pm
snags

today I am a mess. we went to church this morning and I started crying when we sand the Lord's Prayer.............
9:27 pm
Jillyjill

Man, I have had THOSE days snags...hang in there!!
9:28 pm
snags

well I have an adult daughter that wont talk to me because she thinks I put my oldest granddaughter before her and that was nearly 2 years ago
9:28 pm
Nef

(((Snags))) We all do the best we can in a given situation.
9:28 pm
snags

glad I am not alone, but am sorry you have those feelings too.
9:29 pm
Nef

a grandchild should come before an adult child.
9:29 pm
snags

Thanks yo two...... for listening and encouraging me.
9:29 pm
snags

but the thing was, i didn't do that.
9:30 pm
Pinikula

My thoughts are with parents who struggle with their children; I've also had my fair share...but I will always be there for my kids unlike my own parents and siblings (but 1) who are no longer 'there' for me.
9:30 pm
Nef

Man, you are stuck between a rock and a hard place then
9:30 pm
snags

Pass the chocolate please
9:30 pm
Nef

cholits for all
9:31 pm
Jillyjill

The one thing I've learned over the past 5 months is to trust God, thank him for whatever his plan is, and remembering the situation does not define ME
9:31 pm
snags

Children............ there are days but I have 3 grandsons I adore and they adore me.
9:31 pm
snags

wise Jilly. very wise
9:31 pm
Nef

very true, Jilly.
9:32 pm
Jillyjill

Believe me, it has taken all of my 52 years to learn that...*bites into chocolate*
9:32 pm
Pinikula

I have 2 gkids...I'm not 'allowed' to see one
9:32 pm
snags

swallowed my piece of choco, whole.............
9:32 pm
snags

Oh Pini............
9:33 pm
Pinikula

* eyeing the whole box of chocs *
9:33 pm
Nef

first thing we learned back in nursing school is that no one is perfect and that as long as you do the best you can in any situation, you should never blame yourself if things go terribly wrong. Just do your best and that's all you can do
9:33 pm
snags

any of them have nuts?
9:33 pm
Jillyjill

OH pini, I am so sorry...the hardest part of my son's divorce was losing the step=grandchild that I loved dearly...cried many nights
9:33 pm
Nef

(and those nuns were talking about people dieing under our care!)
9:34 pm
snags

I think the 1950's were easier
9:34 pm
Jillyjill

Good trainers those nuns...I had a couple that transfered when my college took over the Catholic school.
9:34 pm
Pinikula

...the one I can't see is the one I raised for 6 years...
9:34 pm
Nef

snags, one box with nuts; 1 box without. Which do you want?
9:34 pm
Pinikula

...and she lives only 1/2 mile away. :(
9:34 pm
Jillyjill

Well, the 70's were, or was it the mood enhancers?
9:35 pm
Nef

(((PINI)))
9:35 pm
Jillyjill

Oh Pini ((Hugs)))
9:36 pm
Nef

LOL, Jilly! I had my nose to the grindstone in the 70's and missed the mood enhancers!
9:37 pm
Jillyjill

Us student nurses partied HARD on weekends....
9:38 pm
Nef

not in my school. We started out with 55 in our freshman class; only 20 graduated. Anyone who partied a lot flunked
9:38 pm
snags

the nutted chocolates please.
9:39 pm
Nef

(but I went to nursing school in the 60's; and we were pretty innocent in North Dakota back then
9:39 pm
Pinikula

* wonders if there are any chocs with caramel *
9:39 pm
Pinikula

where in ND, Nef?
9:39 pm
Jillyjill

I was here in Montana, but Missoula was pretty liberal, that was my last year as well.
9:40 pm
Nef

here you go, snags; this box has some interesting hazel nut mocha pieces in it
9:40 pm
Nef

Gran Forks, Fargo and Jamestown, Pini
9:40 pm
Nef

Missoula was always liberal, Jilly!
9:41 pm
Nef

Oops! GranD forks, that was

I survived the 50s -- not a good time for wives and women.
9:41 pm
Pinikula

...and a cousin-in-law from Fargo
9:41 pm
Jillyjill

It was known as the Berkley of the ROckies back then
9:41 pm

Jilli! Your icon is a hoot!

I'm really watching the Oscars but hi all
9:43 pm
Pinikula

(also distracted by Oscars)
9:43 pm
Jillyjill

Me too jilli
9:43 pm
Nef

JIlly, my dad knew every hippy artist in Missoula. He had all sorts of artists and druggy as his buddys back then
9:44 pm
jillibus

nice to see a sis and a cuz here -- so sorry about your grandkid, pini :-( You are such a good person and don't deserve that.
9:44 pm
snags

distracted by hubby. he was having a leg cramp
9:44 pm
Jillyjill

Have another chocolate snags...
9:44 pm
Nef

that isn't fun...
9:44 pm
jillibus

hi snags -- I know about leg cramps too -- eat bananas.
9:44 pm
snags

how about the boxzz// grinning
9:44 pm
Jillyjill

Nef, I sure hope you get out here sometime!
9:44 pm
Pinikula

thx jilli...pretty soon she'll hopefully have a voice and can make some decisions that are good for her!
9:45 pm
Nef

and I totally agree with jilli saying that you don't deserve that treatment, Pini!
9:45 pm
snags

i just read about drinking a glass of water before bed.......... it helps hydrate the legs......... wonder if it's true.
9:46 pm
snags

are the oscars very good??
9:46 pm
Jillyjill

It'll give you exercise making a potty run during the night!
9:46 pm
Jillyjill

Better than some years snags
9:46 pm
snags

lol
9:46 pm
jillibus

I think the leg cramps at night might be because of a potassium deficiency (esp if he is on diuretics) so bananas are a nice bedtime snack.
9:47 pm
snags

great, the oscars were hoping to attract a younger group
9:47 pm
snags

no diuretics, or blood pressure meds.
9:47 pm
Nef

I don't know about that one, snags. I try to drink a couple of glasses of water before bedtime; but then have to get up and go at night! ;-) I have found that making sure I get my multivit each day helps
9:47 pm
Jillyjill

totally agree jilli, potassium deficit
9:48 pm
snags

frankly growing old isn't such a good idea!! :)
9:48 pm
Jillyjill

I think it's most important to drink water during the day...bedtime shouldn't make a difference.
9:48 pm
jillibus

the Oscars? I'm just curious about who's going to win (loved The Kig's Speech -- haven't seen the others) -- thought the actor who played the speech coach deserves an Oscar -- brilliant.
9:48 pm
Nef

it can also be magnesium that causes leg cramps.
9:49 pm
snags

NEF, not enough or too much?
9:49 pm
Nef

growing old is better than the alternative, snags
9:49 pm
Jillyjill

A cal/mag/zinc supplement very needed if you take a blood pressure med.

ROFL jj, but here I am enjoying 83...

9:50 pm
snags

I am 66............ and a young one at heart......... zipping along the highways on a Honda gold wing three wheeler............... lovin it
9:50 pm
Nef

not enough, snags. I was taking Vit D3, and you should take calcium when you take Vit. D. Got leg cramps; was told I needed to increase my magnesium. That helped
9:51 pm
Nef

good for you, snags! :-) I'm 64 myself
9:51 pm
Jillyjill

As the youngsters say...SAHWEET! snags
9:51 pm
snags

Nef, hubby takes a multitude of things......... but I don't think mag, is one of them
9:52 pm

Sahweeeeeeeeeet!

we both ride so we take turns .... when he rides I sit on the back and read
9:53 pm

my advice is he should check with his doctor and get a blood test. Don't follow vitamin advice except by someone who knows what your blood levels
9:53 pm
snags

brb
9:53 pm
Nef

9:54 pm
Jillyjill

Well, going to have to sign off for tonight. Early day, was supposed to be off, but one nurse doesn't want to work (reference to previous conversation on childish behaviors...lol). Thanks for a great chat every one!
9:54 pm
Pinikula

take care jj
9:55 pm
Nef

LOL! Daughter came upstairs and (sort of) apologized. Dh suggested that she use a red flag to warn us that she's PMS-ing
9:55 pm
Nef

niters, Jilly
9:56 pm
Pinikula

nice, nef!
9:57 pm
Pinikula

oooh, I like the quote they just showed by Lena Horne: It's not the load the breaks you down; it's how you carry it.
9:57 pm
Nef

my mind is a bit twisted. I know what he means; but it could be taken a different way...
9:58 pm
Pinikula

I know what you mean, Nef...perhaps a pretty floral or something LOL
9:58 pm
Nef

I like that too! (I am not watching the Oscars, though)
9:58 pm
Pinikula

..or a lock on her door!
9:59 pm
Pinikula

* the = that
9:59 pm
Pinikula

"It's not the load that breaks you down; it's how you carry it."
9:59 pm

LOL!

I adored Lena Horne. She was remarkable for any age!

10:01 pm
Pinikula

I should think about doing my hair before it gets too late.
10:01 pm
Nef

I really liked her too. She definitely had class (something a lot of famous people lack these days)
10:01 pm
Pinikula

very much so, Nef...
10:01 pm
Pinikula

...and interetingly enough, Hallie Berry resembles her quite a bit!
10:02 pm
Pinikula

(in appearance and presented character)
10:03 pm
Nef

true. I read an in-depth interview with Hallie Berry once while waiting in the doctor's office. She sounded like she had her act together
10:04 pm
Pinikula

I like the idea that she always seems to carry herself in public in a classy/classic manor...not into changing her look/personality to fit the most current 'trend'
10:05 pm
Nef

that's nice too
10:07 pm
Nef

I really don't keep up with celebrities; I don't care for movies or gossip columns. I'm pretty boring I guess. I'd rather read biographies and watch educational TV I guess
10:08 pm
Pinikula

likewise ... I've not seen any of the movies they've been talking about
10:10 pm
Nef

Last time I saw a movie in a theater it was Titanic. DH loves movies; he watches them when I'm at work. (hmm, maybe that's why he says it's okay for me to keep working...?) ;-)
10:10 pm
Pinikula

I'd go to a movie sometime if I had someone to go with...otherwise I'm good with watching the old black and whites when I get a chance.
10:13 pm
Nef

The last 2 times DH went to a movie, he went with my best friend. She's divorced; and every once in a while there is a movie that they both want to see and I really don't want to go.
10:15 pm
Pinikula

Perhaps one will come out that will really catch my attention...until then...
10:15 pm
Pinikula

...I'll save my money. ;)
10:16 pm
Pinikula

...and speaking of doing hair, I should go get it over with...
10:16 pm
Pinikula

...back shortly. ;)
10:16 pm

okay. I gotta get back to this #@&%!! grid
10:26 pm

May I please have a clue for te5-10? Thanks
10:27 pm
Nef

I only have the 2nd te 5/10; it's a male singer
10:27 pm
Jacula

te5/10 1st or 2nd?
10:28 pm
gapeach1066@yaho

Oh, sorry, Jac.....1st please.
10:28 pm
Jacula

Also, it's Halle Berry and 'manner' not 'manor'. That's for past posters.
10:29 pm

Gap - it's a ancient Grecian headband. Number after 9 + 2 vowels.
10:30 pm
gapeach1066@yaho

Thanks so much, Jacula.
10:30 pm
Nef

Jac, we were typing/talking fast; didn't notice the mistakes til you mentioned them
10:31 pm
Jacula

I'm feeling a bit picky right now, since an old friend picked on me earlier for talking about meat when she's a veggie. (On FB, not on here, btw.)
10:33 pm
Nef

IRL I often say things backwards. I hate to tell you how many times I have to retype what I'm trying to say here sometimes in a fast discussion.
10:34 pm
Nef

Last night I told a friend of my dtr's not to "drink drunk" and meant not to "drink and drive"
10:36 pm
Nef

if I get upset; I often get whole phrases back-a**wards. I AM the queen of spoonerisms
10:37 pm
Jacula

No shame in that, Nef.
10:39 pm
Jacula

I was watching 'Nurse Jackie' (a US medical drama) earlier with my son and NJ told a patient's husband, 'I'm not going to blue sky you. It's not looking good!' 'What the bloody hell did that mean?' asked my son. 'I've never heard that expression before.' 'Neither have I,' I said. 'But I know what she means. She's not going to tell him everything's sunny and bright and the outlook is good.'
10:40 pm
Jacula

I think I would have known what you meant re not to drink drunk, too.
10:41 pm
Nef

I've never heard that phrase before either, Jac. So it isn't in *this* part of the US if it's a common phrase elsewhere
10:44 pm
stidmama

okay, oscars over, dinner done, going to get three words and then back to the grind
10:44 pm
Jacula

Nef - the Nurse Jackie series is set in New York. (City, not state.)
10:44 pm
Nef

Just 3 words, stid?
10:46 pm
stidmama

well that was fast... LOL yes, that gets me down to 80.
10:46 pm
stidmama

I'll be back soon. *poof*
10:49 pm
Nef

LOL! stid "hits and runs" again. I bet you will get more words from this grid than most will, stid

Oh heck! That's 2 friends on here and one on FB that have been watching the Oscars. I HATE award shows.

i had no idea kirk douglas was still alive.. i bet they were just humoring him the whole time.. hes senile lol
10:59 pm
jillibus

poor old Kirk -- determined to overcome that stroke he had.
10:59 pm
Jacula

Kirk Douglas, as far as I can tell, might well outlive son Michael.
10:59 pm
jillibus

not nice to laugh at Kirk
11:01 pm
cosdem

i think i need to watch the king's speech and the fighter.. t hey look good, ive seen social network and inception
11:01 pm
Uneaixoise

King's Speech is wonderful!
11:02 pm
cosdem

i absolutely adore helena bonham carter so i'm sure its good!
11:02 pm
Jacula

I've never laughed at Kirk.
11:02 pm
Uneaixoise

oh, me too, cos -- she's just too fab for words! :-)
11:03 pm
jillibus

I loved The King's Speech and am so old I remember those circumstances quite well.
11:03 pm
Jacula

The King's Speech, so I've heard, takes liberties with the facts, but is a good film nonetheless. I also want to see Yogi Bear film and a couple of others.
11:03 pm
jillibus

You didn't, Jac.
11:04 pm
jillibus

I mean you didn't laugh at Kirk, Jac.
11:04 pm
cosdem

like the social network.. takes liberties with facts..but i thought it was a great movie
11:05 pm
Uneaixoise

still haven't seen Black Swan . . .
11:05 pm
jillibus

I understand that the grandson of the speech therapist for "Bertie" found authentic notes and diaries which were used for the movie.
11:05 pm
Jacula

Our local cinema has the cheaper ticket thing, but you have to buy it for a year. Usually, all the films I want to see come in a bunch all at once, so the ticket is never worth buying. However, in 6 years and 2 months' time - I can get an OAP pass. Half price for pensioners, plus yu get a comfy seat and tea and biscuits.:-))
11:05 pm
Uneaixoise

yes, jilli, I read about that -- amazing, eh?
11:06 pm
Jacula

Black Swan is another I'd like to see.
11:07 pm
Uneaixoise

am sure it's a fish, but clue for on5, please?
11:07 pm
cosdem

black swan looks great... the winter bone too.. and the kids are all right
11:08 pm
Jacula

Une - it's a salty ending sort of word.
11:08 pm
jillibus

Our movie theatre is unique -- just a former little church building which can convert from movies to other uses, having moveable seats. Before each performance, instead of a string of commercials, we're streated to a lovely slide show of Salt spring scenes.
11:08 pm
Uneaixoise

saw Kids Are All Right and Winter's Bone -- both for a dollar via Redbox -- really really good
11:08 pm

Yes, I remember smoking in the cinema, too. You could do it on the left of the screen but not on the right. (No extractor fans to stop smoke drifting, though.)
11:13 pm
Uneaixoise

11:13 pm
Jacula

11:20 pm
cosdem

but the weird thing is.. i quit meth cold turkey 6 1/2 years ago. how can i quit meth cold turkey and not cigs?
11:20 pm
Uneaixoise

i believe it, jac -- good friend continued to smoke for several yrs after a radical mastectomy -- has finally quit for good but it was a long hard process for her
11:21 pm
jillibus

nicotine is deadly and the hardest to quit, we're told.
11:21 pm
Uneaixoise

she spent a fortune on Nicorette gum
11:22 pm
