D-i-l is a very busy full-time head of the high school drama department and seldom has time off to get here. They go to Tadoussac, Quebec, the moment school is out in the summer and return just in time for school opening. They don't love near me.

12:56 am
jillibus

shoulder doesn't hurt it's part of the deltoid and part of the pectoral, I think.
12:56 am

Next time I'm in town I'll get some arnica

Started babbling at no 4/4 today. It did not take me ae 4/4s to do grid. Did not have to be a le 6/18 and le 4/4 on the list. Fireworks are an 5/10 so now here is a story of clues. I got on a pl4/5 and flew to California to get a Master's Degree in Education.I pl4/5ned on becoming a teacher. Currently,I ea 4/4 a living working in an urban ar4/4 helping kids le 5/10. I hope that the students are gl 7/36s and gl 5/14 the information that I teach them. It fills me with gl 4/6 to see kids le4/4ning. I think that no 4/4 of my students realize how important education is though.Hubby is ne4/4by le 4/4ing at me because he wants the computer. Now I am going to go watch an Al 4/5 Baldwin film.I will le4/5 into the chog later to help with clues. By the way, only part of this story is re 4/4.

i was here when she was on and i didn't see any comment that should be taken wrongly. the problem with babble, and it's not a problem as such is that all babblers come from all over the world, so different words mean something entirely different to others...i.e, probably not he greatest one to use..fanny( i don't know how my american friends spell it) means something entirely different to us in the uk.don't ever apologise smores, as even though we are from all over the world, we are all different people with certain attitudes and personalities

Turning the babble into words is an important step ... First words of a newspaper article on bt yahoo - about babies speaking really but it made me laugh!
9:09 pm
Minveryork

That is funny Lizlin.What is bt yahoo though? British yahoo?
9:10 pm
Minveryork

Hello Lizlin!How are you doing? Welcome back to the chog

9:55 pm
Jillyjill

Hi uusue, how are you and Frank holding up?
9:59 pm
uusue2

pretty well, Jill
9:59 pm
uusue2

his appetite is getting worse again but otherwise he doesn't seem to have much in the way of side effects
10:03 pm
Jillyjill

Is he maintaining 1) fluids 2) his weight?
10:04 pm
uusue2

his weight seems to be pretty stable (although rather low); he should probably be getting more fluids than he is, but he isn't significantly dehydrated
10:06 pm
Jillyjill

And I read his labs are good...so I would think it's pretty much par for the course. He will have his up and down days...
10:06 pm
uusue2

indeed. It is all rather wearing...
10:07 pm
Jillyjill

And how is your shoulder?
10:08 pm
uusue2

it's actually a little better after Friday's physical therapy appointment, which is nice
10:08 pm
Jillyjill

Yay!!
10:09 pm
uusue2

indeed :-)
10:09 pm
uusue2

and how is your Frank doing?
10:10 pm
Jillyjill

Hubby doing really well, has some moments, is a little easier to 'set off' than he used to be...
10:11 pm
uusue2

glad he is doing well. I remember he had some setbacks after his surgery.
10:11 pm

Jillyjill

Animals are really good for older folks, gives them something to care for; a reason to exist
10:17 pm
