12:47 am
grannyrose

my surgeon ( medical director of my hospital) spoke to the DON, and she has back-pedalled so fast.
12:48 am
jillibus

oh great, granny -- that's only right
12:48 am
jillibus

you'd think a hospital person would know better than to push too soon
12:48 am

so i have decided to stay off work til the last week of november, return on 3 x 6 hour shifts, and go from there.

1:40 am

jilli, it will probably look pretty yucky for a while. then as the redness subsides, it will probably look a little like patchwork.
1:41 am
jillibus

that's what I'm expecting, granny. Yuk.
1:41 am
negativeneil

Oh wow jilli [reading back]. Sure hope it heals well and doesn't look too bad. maybe once it's healed enough you'll be able to cover it?
1:41 am
negativeneil

Some foundation, concealer, powder?
1:41 am
jillibus

I hope so, neil.
1:42 am
jillibus

I've never worn makeup like that -- too lazy.
1:43 am

But as they say, "neds must".
1:43 am

*needs must
1:44 am
grannyrose

you won't be allowed to wear any concealer until it is completely healed, jilli.
1:44 am
negativeneil

Yeah. I said once it's healed enough.
1:44 am
jillibus

I realise that, granny
1:46 am
grannyrose

the graft will be very delicate for a while, then as the nerves grow back, it will become very sensitive. but then again, sometimes the nerves don't grow back. and that is not a bad thing ei6.
1:47 am
jillibus

soounds like fun :-(
1:47 am
grannyrose

may i ask where the donor skin was taken from? or would you rather not say?
1:47 am
jillibus

from the neck -- under the bandage in the picture
1:49 am
grannyrose

oh, i see. do you have vitamin E cream ready? it is the best thing for graft sites.
1:49 am
jillibus

I do have some -- the surgeon doesn't think it does much good, but we'll see.
1:51 am
negativeneil

Probably can't hurt to try it.
1:51 am
negativeneil

Once it's all healed enough.
1:51 am
grannyrose

the ot5 product you could try is vitamin E oil. it would be easier to apply in the early days.
1:52 am
jillibus

Indeed, granny.
1:52 am
jillibus

I have the oil too.
1:55 am
grannyrose

oh, good, jilli. so you are all prepared. i will be watching this space and face with interest.

lyn: my terrible teen and I are doing ok. My love had a long talk with him, which didn't seem to work much but did a lot beneath the surface. Yesterday I had a long talk with Tim too, listened very well but also had my say. He told me he cannot stand being called to tasks or being reminded of them in an irritated way. He asks that we try and always ask nicely, even if he has forgotten for the 1000th time. We agreed to try that, but asked him in return to take his tasks more seriously, to take responsibility for them AND for forgetting them.

5:57 am

because as men,many of us dearly love cars.the classic elegance of the collectable cars.the curves of a fender or fin every bit as exciting as the curves of a woman,but again nothing else can bring us quite to the brink of insanity as car problems:)

Well I will confess cars don't inspire me in that way. Nor do women, at that. Cars are born to take me where I wanna go and back, without problems.
But the outline of a nice man's butt... now that is more like it :)

6:09 am
crosshair

my beloved says she misses you all,it is just hard to play now with the magnifier and large fonts.she says it is like wearing strong readers and holding your head still and moving the book back and forth to catch the words:(
6:09 am
ivesy3

yes. going to get book two. think there are about seven in the series, plus a few stand alone
6:10 am
sprite

ouch, crossy :( I miss her too, but I totally understand that makes playing both very hard and not that much fun.
6:11 am
sprite

I love that series, ivesy. That is exactly the kind of books I like to read. Beautiful characters, intriguing story, and sex scenes that play a part in that story. Lovely.

BabbleRabble

Throughout the novel, Azriel is struggling to understand whether he is a ghost, a demon, or an angel. He is trying to understand why his god has denied him the Stairway to Heaven by allowing him to be made into an immortal spirit who is bound to the gold-encased bones of his mortal body. As a genie, he must obey the Master of those bones (whoever has them at the moment) and become the Master's Servant, whether for good or evil. Thus the title, Servant of the Bones.

Hi BR :)
6:20 am
crosshair

and that leads into crossy,s poem of the day!!
6:20 am
crosshair

I walk the stinking city streets
Alone, while the passing throng
stares,
Because my clothes don't conform.
Let them stare. I'm me, not them.
Although I wear my hair long,
And natural and sometimes have holes
in my jeans
I'm an oddity. Do I care?
I'm glad I'm me, not them.
So the suede of my jacket is worn,
For warmth I could do better.
It suits my moods.
It's comfortable,
And then again, It's me.
They can stare if they want.
Who are they to judge?
At least I'm free.
I don't bother to protest in
Their silly pettish battles.
My world doesn't deal in hate.
I get along with me just fine.
I decorate my rooms with blankets.
Their colors keep me company,
And in the winter they keep me warm.

I believe so - I only used the descaling once
6:45 am

of course. Vinegar worked perfectly for ages before the special mixes were developed. Just run it through, repeat if necessary, and make sure to run through clean water a couple of times before making coffee.

8:08 am

i was reading advice online about how to increase a cat's appetite. they suggested a little catnip. marty licked up the catnip but it didn't make him eat more food! lol
8:09 am
72 Temple Owl

why is he eating poorly?
8:09 am
hurshy

the vet said to switch him to wet food. with dry he would graze all day. with wet he just has set meals, and i think he doesn't eat as much that way.
8:10 am
hurshy

however, i'm to give it a couple of weeks because he may get used to the new system and eat more. i think he has been possibly eating SLIGHTLY more each day so this is plausible at least.
8:12 am
72 Temple Owl

hope it works.
8:13 am
hurshy

well he also may just not need as much food as some cats, have a low metabolism. he's just never been very into food. and the vet did say it was not his thyroid and in fact that his levels of that were on the low side of the normal range.
8:13 am
hurshy

but yes, thank you for the good wishes. :)
8:14 am
72 Temple Owl

so he is a skinny kitty.
8:15 am
hurshy

yes, he has been 9.5 lbs (on a largish frame) most of his adult life. the reason i called the vet was because i discovered he'd lost a pound.
8:15 am
72 Temple Owl

how old is he?
8:15 am
hurshy

12
8:15 am
Anniebrook

hurshy, is Marty drinking more water than usual?
8:16 am
hurshy

and he had no other symptoms, no change in energy level, no change in any behavior. not drinking more water. he's always LOVED water and drinks lots.
8:18 am
Anniebrook

One of my cats (when I had cats) lost weight and started drinking much more water than he usually did and it was a kidney problem. I am happy to read that Marty has energy and not losing lots of weight.
8:18 am
72 Temple Owl

time to go, happy babbling.
8:19 am
hurshy

yeah she tested his blood and found slight elevation in some kidney things. then she tested his urine to see what that showed and she said not much kidney damage. so that is why just the switch to wet food. i'm also to try giving him chicken broth. and pepsid.
8:20 am
hurshy

bye TO
8:21 am
Anniebrook

You have a good vet. Try to wean Marty off dry food. Chicken broth cures everything.
8:21 am
hurshy

yes, i'm not giving him any dry food now, just the wet.
8:22 am
Anniebrook

Marty will get used to wet food. Give him a rub for me under his ch4.
8:22 am
hurshy

:) will do - when i get home that is

ty hurshy
8:37 am
uusue2

at least it should have fewer side effects than the prednisone

8:42 am
bichon

mine are very nervous from being strays. Life is tough out on the streets
8:42 am
uusue2

and my cats hate each other and the dog, they all want to curl up with us but not with each other. Makes for interesting shenanigans on the bed.
8:43 am
bichon

mine fight about who gets to curl up with whom. Bichons are pretty dogs, but boy they can be dominating
8:43 am
uusue2

Sera grew up as a farm dog, maybe similar?
8:43 am
bichon

I'd be more inclined to think that merci would be accepted by Enable since it is a more "familiar" foreign word than coqui.

Er, who makes the rules round ehre anyways?
11:00 am

Sarcasm? I think that is an "off with your head" offense.
11:00 am

I was surprised today by how many people did not get the vet author clue. I thought those books were more well known than they seem to be here.
5:20 pm
Book Doctor Gwen

i don't use a spray, it's an odor absorbing product, you put the book and the deodorizer in a box and leave 'em in there for a month. (works like kitty litter)
5:20 pm
crosshair

i was surprised also

It's not a bad smell, or a smelly smell, it's like what Grandparents smell like. Something that has been around a while and has absorbed the world.
5:23 pm

it is the books way of saying "i have been waiting for you.for decades,fifty,one hundred years..read me"

5:26 pm

i use mr bubbles for my pet rock
5:27 pm
Book Doctor Gwen

does it have to be in scale, rabble?
5:27 pm
BabbleRabble

the rock rebelled when I tried brasso
5:27 pm
saanichcat

Gwen, do you have a box that deodorizes mildewed books? I have a Problem in my basement.
5:27 pm
Book Doctor Gwen

oh dear me
5:28 pm
crosshair

no! never use brasso,use a mild clenser then shellac the rock for that nice forever sheen
5:28 pm
Book Doctor Gwen

saanich, i do indeed. it's an ordinary box, but it has book deodorizer in it. you can get some at bookdeodorizer dot com. or you can use odor-absorbing kitty litter
5:29 pm
BabbleRabble

my pet will not be disrespected with a coat of shellac
5:29 pm
Book Doctor Gwen

the box doesn't have to be air-tight, but some dealers use air-tight box, or an old cooler, or an old refrigerator
5:29 pm
Book Doctor Gwen

i just use a wooden box
5:29 pm
Book Doctor Gwen

shellac! heavens no!
5:30 pm
saanichcat

Gwen Thank you! Thank you so much! Big hug for that info!
5:30 pm
Book Doctor Gwen

put the stinky books in the box with the deodorizer and leave them in there for a month. give or take.
5:30 pm
Book Doctor Gwen

hey, no prob!
5:31 pm
cosdem

mo5 the firs please
5:31 pm
crosshair

lol.only in babble.stinky books and pet rocks
5:31 pm
Book Doctor Gwen

lastly, when handling mildewed books, i recommend gloves, and don't breathe in too close to the books, because there are some rare strains that can make you quite ill
5:31 pm
cosdem

never mind
5:32 pm
Book Doctor Gwen

you can remove most mildew (assuming it's dry and dead) with a clean dry paper napkin. then throw out the napkin. do not re-use the napkin.
5:32 pm
crosshair

what if we have a stinky pet rock? we can use this as well?
5:33 pm
crosshair

i tried a chia pet,but the cat ate it
5:33 pm
Book Doctor Gwen

for pet rocks the appication of deodorant will not help. what you need there is an infusion of brains (joke!)
5:34 pm
Book Doctor Gwen

LOL
5:35 pm

i had a client recently who called me with a ton of books to sell, they had been in a basement for decades, many were beyond help, poor things!

5:36 pm

I segregate my pet rock from my herd of dust mi 5. Never can be too careful. Who knows where they have been.

when there's more mildew than paper, i'm sorry, out it goes
5:36 pm
crosshair

i love my reader,but i have 5 full bookshelves 6 feet high with 5 shelves on each crammed with books i cherish
5:37 pm
BabbleRabble

Not the book's fault it has been disrespected.
5:37 pm
saanichcat

Thanks so much Gwen. I already threw out thousands of books which needed to go anyway. I saved many more in air-tight cartons for future cleaning. I have a problem in the laundry room which because of no smell went unnoticed for years, then I move some cartons of books in the room next to laundry and Bingo - the kind of unwelcome surprise.So you can see why I am so grateful!
5:37 pm
Book Doctor Gwen

awwww, you're causing me to experience feelings of nostalgia, crossy!
5:37 pm

hehe
5:38 pm

Boxes of books in a basement make no sense to me. Either keep them on a shelf where they can be enjoyed or give them away to others who will enjoy them.

there's a crew of guys re-roofing my neighbor's house - their radio is on soooo loud, i can hear it through the walls. but i don't have the heart to ask them to turn it down - it's cold and breezy here and it's dirty work
5:39 pm
Book Doctor Gwen

some folks love their books but don't know that the basement is a no-no, then they die and the grown-up kids call me to sort through the mess
5:39 pm
crosshair

when it gets dark,they will stop for the night i am sure
5:40 pm
Book Doctor Gwen

actually, this client had the books all on shelves, but still, they were in the basement
5:40 pm
saanichcat

You are so right on that Molly. But I did have many thousands. I have whittled them to what will fit upstairs. Also I live under a mountain in the tress and by the ocean - waht can you expect?

5:41 pm

i have some of those boxes in the basement - i know i have to ditch them, but .... (and then there are the shelves upstairs. those books are in good condition, but unwanted by the kids and worthless (except to me) to anyone else
5:41 pm
Book Doctor Gwen

my mom loves to tell the story: Clawson, Michigan, got a new library building, no budget to move the books, so they asked everyonei n town to take out a few books, then bring them back to the new library, ha ha ha it worked!
5:42 pm
BabbleRabble

I understand, saanichat .... lots of critics
5:42 pm
MollyL

That is a great story Gwen. : )
5:42 pm

It was too late for the basement. I stripped it down to bare walls and cement.
5:43 pm

hehe,i have no livingroom.now i have 2 sets of comfy wingback chairs with small tables tween them surrounded by books,a computer desk in one corner and one of those loveseats in another with a flat screen tv tacked to the wall.more library than livingroom,but comfy and cosy and inviting

5:46 pm

5:46 pm

i don't keep inventory in the kitchen -- and i don't collect cook books 8-)

I like Newman's own products. I usually make my own red sauce, but if I have to resort to a jar, I will use that.

5:54 pm
Book Doctor Gwen

saanich, well, i don't know what it is, so i can't say either way. is it for stinky books or what?
5:54 pm
saanichcat

A handful of fresh herbs will make red sauce taste gourmet!
5:56 pm
Book Doctor Gwen

all right, must make some dinner, Newman's Own awaits 8-)
5:57 pm
saanichcat

It's a recent treatment for books and also musical instruments. It's a bigger version of your box - conatiner large enough to hold the object (pianos to books) and filled with ozone, don't know how long it takes and that's all I know about it.
5:57 pm

Enjoy, Book Doctor Gwen

6:02 pm
welki

when i was a kid, it was a big deal to get corned beef hash with peas - my father would get a fried egg on top of his
6:03 pm
crosshair

as a child our corned beef was always a lunch thing on thin light rye bread stacked thin and high with zesty mustard and a mound of french fries;))
6:03 pm

Corned beef hash with a fried egg on top is very New York. : )
