How was graduation Trif?
6:51 am
Trifioso

It was really, really lovely, molly. Great weather, sunny, but not hot, nor too chilly, and the speakers were all excellent, and I didn't need the whole box of tissues I brought....my mom was in great form and made it through the whole ceremony without issue, and Primo was composed and had a great time.
6:51 am
Anniebrook

congratulations, Trif!
6:52 am
MollyL

Sounds wonderful.
6:52 am
Trifioso

the only dark spot was delivered via mr. hate, as expected. He arrived on time, with his partner, sat WAY up in the stands, not in the family area, and left without saying so much as one word to me, nor tertiare. He said hello (and that was it) to secondo, took a couple of photos of primo, and then left. I am surprised at how stung I am.
6:52 am
crosshair

yaa for primo!
6:53 am
MollyL

It takes a true asshat to behave in such a way at his son's graduation.
6:53 am
Trifioso

I know we aren't friends, but it was our son's graduation! To completely dismiss me like that, and to only put in a token appearance, at best, was really disappointing.
6:53 am
crosshair

do not let it shadow that day
6:54 am
Anniebrook

He sounds like my ex husband
6:54 am
Trifioso

I am trying crossy, I really, really am. I know it says more about my expectations than anything else, and I am the one who is responsible for those.
6:54 am
Trifioso

I am choosing to remember the good stuff. Seriously!
6:54 am
crosshair

good girl
6:55 am
MollyL

Trif, it just shows how juvenile he is. Any mature man would put aside any differences and make the day about his son, the graduate.
6:55 am
Anniebrook

Trif, and that is all you should remember. Do not give Mr. Hate the power to shadow your life.
6:55 am
Trifioso

primo is fine with it, and that is the bigger concern, to me. were he hurt, or feeling rejected, it would be more of a big deal.
6:55 am
Anniebrook

but a narcissist cannot do that...it is all about HIM
6:56 am
MollyL

Yes Annie, the oh so tiring "it's all about me" show. I've learned to distance myself from people like that.
6:56 am
Trifioso

and that is all the chog space mr hate gets today. He does not deserve our greater attentions
6:58 am
Trifioso

there were a TON of other graduations this weekend, and I have really enjoyed looking at the various photos on FB.. for example, my pastor's daughter graduated from Bennington college this weekend, and the photos she posted looked GREAT. A really funky, fun looking time
7:00 am
crosshair

my son is 17 and as a rarity is currently enjoying school and he knows his course in life already.he wished to be an auto mechanic and it just so happens we are getting a new college built just up the road and it will be ready in time for him..i will sell the bloody furniture if i have to to get him those college course..cannot wait,you are a lucky woman trif.my son will be the first male in our family to graduate normally(crossy finished via adult classes) and i hope it is a great a day as you and primo had
7:02 am
Trifioso

it sort of can't help but be great, crossy. The pride you will feel is so wonderful

I am so happy for your son, crossy...his life will be so much easier knowing what he wants to do

7:12 am
Trifioso

Lets see - the current plan: primo is attending the Massachusetts College of Art and Design. He feels certain he would like to go into teaching, so he is looking at a five year plan which will allow him to graduate with an MFA and a teaching certificate
7:12 am
Anniebrook

and I will order books from your store, crossy
7:12 am
crosshair

very nice trif:)
7:13 am

however, a good 75% of students who start at Mass Art end up graduating in something other than what they started in, so we will see!

thank you! crossy
7:13 am

Primo is incredibly good with physics, so he may end up in an engineering, architecture, or industrial design field, you never know
7:14 am
Trifioso

also, he is starting college as a published illustrator, having done an article for the Boston Globe and a book already, so he may continue there.
7:14 am

of course, he could be an illustrator and a teacher; they neednt be exclusve

Tuesday is the most popular day of the week for giving birth. Part of that factor has nothing to do with Nature and everything to do with hospital staffing since elective C-sections and induced labors are often scheduled during traditional working hours.

Yeah, that one is particularly strange. Ironically, I have to stop on my way to work and pick up my passport from a place that sends them away to get foreign vi/4's. So it will be vi/6 appropriately.

so, heard from mom this morning, and it sounds like they FINALLY have a diagnosis for my dad...
11:50 am
uusue2

well, they kind of ended there, molly, as I pretty much gave up music (except choral music) to focus on physics
11:51 am

oh, eva, that is great! even if it is not good, I mean, it is good to know.

"neurological neuropathy from acute spinal arthritis"
11:51 am
uusue2

ah. do they know what part of his spine is affected? (it sounds a little bit like what is going on with my neck)
11:52 am
MollyL

What's the treatment Eva?
11:52 am
EvaNadine

im not sure, as thats all her email said.
they will be moving him (probably tomorrow) temporarily to a nursing home to undergo physical therapy until he can walk again, then he can return home.
11:53 am
jan

That all sounds positive. Hopefully surgery won't be needed.
11:54 am
EvaNadine

doesnt seem so, jan.
im just hoping he is up to the challenge. mom said when that news came in, his first reaction was of the "oh, not a nursing home -- now i will NEVER go home" variety... and as we all know, outlook is SO much of it...
11:56 am
jan

Does the nursing home have separate areas from the permanent residents for the physical therapy folks? My mom's nursing home did--in fact, lots of the PT patients were fairly young (accidents, strokes, etc.) and they were definitely working towards going beck home.
11:56 am
MollyL

Well hopefully he will realize that the harder he works on his therapy, the faster he will be out of that place.
11:56 am
EvaNadine

personally, im hoping the home they send him to is one that doesnt allow drinking or smoking of ANY sort. not only will that be good for his health, but it will also motivate him to work harder on the PT to go home faster...
11:57 am
uusue2

Sounds like what my dad did, eva; he was there for about 5 weeks. They can be very depressing places so if you and your mom can keep him upbeat and working on recovery that will be very helpful.
11:57 am
EvaNadine

jan, not sure which one he is going to, but i would assume that to be the case. but, he turns 70 this year, so its not like he would be one of the "younger folks"
11:57 am
uusue2

And I don't think any of them allow you to smoke or drink, at least inside (I think they could go outside - far outside - to smoke)
11:57 am

Interesting--my mother's roomie in the Alzheimer's wing used to have port sneaked it for a bedtime tipple. I think the staff was fully aware but they chose to look the other way.
11:58 am
EvaNadine

my grandmothers nursing home allowed her a glass of sherry before bed each night, as she was physically healthy, and it was her regular routine for years. and, as you said, some allow you to smoke outside.
im hoping for one that bans it all outright.
11:59 am
uusue2

anyway, eva, I've moved my dad's story below the physics babblets in my profile but it is still there - he turned 90 in March, so please feel free to use him as an example if that is helpful :-)

12:52 pm
car.eeyore

Check this out....Coconut is highly nutritious and rich in fiber, vitamins, and minerals. It is classified as a "functional food" because it provides many health benefits beyond its nutritional content. Coconut oil is of special interest because it possesses healing properties far beyond that of any other dietary oil and is extensively used in traditional medicine among Asian and Pacific populations. Pacific Islanders consider coconut oil to be the cure for all illness. The coconut palm is so highly valued by them as both a source of food and medicine that it is called "The Tree of Life." Only recently has modern medical science unlocked the secrets to coconut's amazing healing powers.

When I was in Tonga (on an Earthwatch expedition researching giant clams) we would go to the market every morning and buy green coconuts to drink later - coconut water is very good, and a good source of drinkable water in a place surrounded by salt water

I learned a good lesson today. Always sign up for a blood drive. I decided to go over to the local chruch after my errands today and no one was there and the door was locked. I called the Red Cross who informed me that it had been cancelled. I had not signed up since I did not know when I would be available today. But I did drink extra water and made sure I got enough iron in my food. So it was frustrating but not the end of the world

Nice inside the house. Bit cold and miserable out there - seems we will have a proper Winter this year

and what is happening with you Stid?
8:02 pm

well, I have apparently finished the Master's program -- just waiting for the papers to come in the mail. volunteering now with my teacher friends until the end of the school year.
8:03 pm
lynxxx

Wow...Congrats - that was a looong slog! and then you go hunting for a position?
8:05 pm
stidmama

yes, I will substitute teach in the fall, and wait until mid-year to look for real. By then I will have more references and people will already know who I am. I am limited in where I can teach by where I live. Not going to move to a city, so have to wait for the local (rural) districts to have some openings.
8:07 pm
lynxxx

Hope you don't have to wait too long, some of hose Baby Boomers must be thinking of retiring soon surely
8:07 pm

Congratulations stidmama on getting your Masters. I have to say you picked a great profession! Although not so great now in my district with all of the layoffs.

Not hearing from a best friend for 10, 20, 30 or even 40 years just happens as life goes on its way for both of you. It doesn't mean the connection is not still there.

Ruru, my partner and his friend have been in touch all along. But my partner and I were apart for 40 years. We dated in high school and just got back together about 3 years ago.

I would think that after 40 years.. you'd be acquaintances and not best friends.

11:03 pm
stidmama

okay, Lucky impaled himself on a dead blackberry vine Sunday going after a toy. It went in his mouth and stuck in the back of his throat. I had to pull it out with my hand. Today he is "owie" whenever he tries to eat (so I gave him canned salmon - dog food). I think I got the whole thorn and stick out. BUT should I worry if he doesn't feel all better by tomorrow evening?
11:04 pm
stidmama

he doesn't seem to be bleeding, btw
11:05 pm
Nef

Oh, MAN, Stid! THAT sounds awful!
11:05 pm
stidmama

there was a good bit of bleeding, of course -- wasn't sure at first if it was mine or his! LOL he bit down a couple times when I was trying to help him. (I am fine, however, no worries)
11:06 pm
stidmama

he's such a good boy. I just hate it when he doesn't eat, though because he doesn't carry any extra weight
11:06 pm
jesdraggon

concerns would be infection and puncture through the wall of the throat
11:06 pm
stidmama

he definitely had a thorn in the throat, but at the back end near where the epiglottis would be in a human
11:07 pm
stidmama

signs of infection hot dry nose?
11:07 pm
jesdraggon

sorry; watching penn and teller and distracted
11:08 pm
Nef

epiglottis or uvula, stid?
11:08 pm
stidmama

that's okay -- WAY more entertaining than dog ick... LOL uvula -- thanks Nef
11:08 pm
jesdraggon

watch for swelling in the lower throat--fluid accumulation
11:08 pm
jesdraggon

watch for swelling in the lower throat--fluid accumulation
11:08 pm
stidmama

okay, I can do that.
11:09 pm
jesdraggon

if there's air leaking through a puncture, you may notice a crackly feel/sound when you put pressure on the skin on the back of the neck
11:10 pm
jesdraggon

that's an emergency
11:10 pm
Nef

epiglottis would be very serious, stid; that's what closes the airway off when we swallow
11:10 pm
stidmama

okay, I don't think that's the case, but will check again
11:10 pm
jesdraggon

a dog's nose being warmer than your hand is just normal, doesn't mean a fever. normal temperature is 101. get a thermometer and take his temperature, that's the most reliable way to know if he's got a fever
11:10 pm
jesdraggon

anything over 103 is a fever
11:10 pm
stidmama

it's not the epiglottis -- wrong side of the throat

that crackly feeling is like the bubble pkg wrapping under the skin
11:12 pm
stidmama

that crackly bit sounds like it would be pretty obvious, yes?
11:13 pm
Nef

not always, but it's definitely weird. (I'm not sure what it would feel like under a dog's fur)
11:14 pm
stidmama

ewwww. my skin is crawling just thinking about crackly fur-covered bubble wrap.... *shudder*
11:14 pm
Nef

I *think* that that is a rectal temp too, stid
11:14 pm
jesdraggon

feels like ... crinkly, you can hear it as well as feel it. like rice crispies sounds :)
11:14 pm
stidmama

yes, it has to be rectal with dogs. I have to hold him up by the tummy or he'll be dangerous.
11:14 pm
jesdraggon

and yes, rectal--oral temp attempts usually result in the dog chewing up the thermometer

I might just go ahead and take him in tomorrow evening if he is still acting like he's afraid and jittery. Even if his temp is okay. Better safe than sorry. He's my baby now that the boys are so big....

Oh! LOL last week for the concert at the boys' school stidkid #2 came into the living room and said, "Mom, I think my jacket (tux) shrank" -- NOPE. after two years at one size, he started growing again! *groan*

Don't worry; it's really scary under a person's skin! It sounds like someone playing with the cellophane that is (or used to be?) around a cigarette pkg. (I don't smoke, but that was how it was described to me and that is the best description I've ever heard)
11:17 pm
stidmama

I never smoked, but I know that sound well.
11:17 pm
jesdraggon

good description, nef
11:18 pm

11:19 pm
stidmama

Hello Babble Friends, am I seeing things or is this yesterday's puzzle?????
11:20 pm
stidmama

thanks so much jes -- I was going to call the vet in the morning if I hadn't seen you, but I would have worried all night. I will check his temp and not worry if it's normal (pretty sure it is) and then call in the morning and make an appointment for him later in the day.
11:20 pm

well, not losing your mind about this... LOL no guarantees about anything else! (at least that is how I am feeling today -- individually things are in order, but collectively is another matter for me)
11:22 pm
Nef
