"S automobile, driven by Theodore"
1:03 am

that's the es7

it was really stupid - i was leaving my mums's and she has quite a high step out of the house - some how as i fell i managed to twist thru 90 degrees and landed with a whump acroos the end of my mums front door step which is made of concrete and caught my ribs just below my boobs - went hospital - didnt even xray as treatment is the same for bruised - cracked or broken - painkillers and deep breathing exercises - got to do some of them soon
1:56 am
Kazzer99

also my right knee is killing me this morning
1:56 am
Glantarell

how are you today?
3:34 am
puglet

Im great! How about yourself?
3:35 am
sprite

am good :) An almost free day ahead, looking forward to do it all in a relaxed way today.
3:36 am
puglet

Thats nice--Hope its as you wish it to be
3:36 am
sprite

we will see... no guarantees in a life with 2 teenager children, right? But they are a blessing too.
3:38 am
puglet

Ive got friends camping at our small campgrounds for the week-end---so we plan on eating outside---Plus I got my great nephew staying as well--Hes going home sometime today
3:38 am
sprite

oh that sounds good :)
3:41 am
puglet

Its nice---But Iam really worried about my nephew(hes 7). He has to spend half his summer with his mom and hes been crying for the 2 days Ive had him so far not wanting to go there.Its sad a little boy dont want to be with his mom and I dont know what to do to help him
3:43 am
sprite

oh dear... that IS sad. Could it be he is crying because the whole situation is confusing for him? Going to his mother meaning he has to leave his dad, and the other way around?
3:47 am
puglet

His mother(which is my neice) I hate to say is not the best mother.She has 3 boys each by a different man. Gradyn(the 7 year old) is the oldest. And he likes to see her but not stay with her. He got in my lap last night and crying says "nanny I dont think I can take a month staying at mommy's) Its the court thats set these rules. I just dont know what to tell him to ease his stress over the mess
3:49 am
puglet

It breaks my heart---I dont think a little boy should feel like that towards a parent
3:49 am
sprite

that is heartrending.
3:50 am
sprite

maybe you can give him a simple mobile and tell him he can call you whenever he needs you? So at least he won't feel alone in this?
3:54 am
puglet

This neice and I were very close at one time. After she had Gradyn at age 16 she just completely changed. The men were number 1 . Then the kids. I had to go to court for Gradyn's father to help him get the boy. It was awful having to do that against my neice. But the boy had no one to stand up for him and I felt I had to do what was right
3:55 am
sprite

he is lucky to have you, pug.
3:55 am
puglet

now she dosent want anything to do with me.I just felt I didnt have a choice here. He was going to start school and in 5 years he never had his own bed until he went to his dads
3:56 am
sprite

he never had his own bed? Then where did he sleep??
3:56 am
puglet

Im sorry Sprite to be putting a damper on your day. Iam just upset about the little guy
3:57 am
puglet

either with her and her fellows or couch or floor
3:57 am
sprite

hey I can feel how you worry. You are not putting a damper on my day, and I am here for you. We babblers do, you know.
3:58 am
sprite

omg that is so wrong. You had to step in there, you really didn't have a choice. Sorry your niece feels you betrayed her, but you really had to speak up for the boy.
3:58 am
puglet

Thank you and Im so thankful and glad for this
3:59 am
sprite

wish I could do something to help. I have been in the little guy's position, more or less. What I am thinking about now is how to make that month bearable for him.
4:00 am
puglet

I prayed about that long before we went to court and I just told the truth about the whole matter. He just left 1st grade friday with several awards and he made all A's--Iam not sorry about doing what I had too
4:02 am
puglet

yeah me too. She wont let any of have anything to do with him as long as she has him.Wont let him talk to his dad--But I told him if it gets too bad to go to my sister and she will call his dad
4:02 am
sprite

some ideas: make a calendar with him for crossing off the days? That mobile could be a lifeline for him? Tell him you take his concerns very seriously, that you can't change what the court decided but that you are there for him, that he can talk freely to you etc?
4:03 am
sprite

jeezz his mother is really hurting him to spite you all... what a sad thing. So wrong to isolate him. Small wonder he feels he can't do this. He needs some sort of supporting contact while he is with her.
4:05 am
puglet

Once he is 12 he dosent have to go to her.He asked me friday why he cant say no at 7. He wont talk much about what goes on staying with her. But it cant be very good if he is so stress about having to go
4:07 am
puglet

I can see how he might be pushed to doing something terrible to get out of the mess. Going to my sisters for help while there is all I know to tell him.She lives about 2 blocks from her
4:07 am
sprite

can you encourage him to tell you? If it is bad, might it be possible to reapply to the court to change their decision? Protecting the children should be their first goal, I'd say. From 7 to 12 is way too long for a boy his age.
4:08 am
sprite

that is wonderful. That is at least a lifeline.
4:09 am
sprite

and I can't help wondering what makes his mother the way she is. Sounds like such low self esteem :(
4:10 am
puglet

the only thing he has repeated is that his younger brother is mean to him and mommy lets him but gets mad at him if he stands up for himself. I got to think theres much more than that for him to hate going so bad
4:11 am
sprite

am with you there. Top of the iceberg, probably, what he says about it.
4:12 am
puglet

Sprite, My neice was raised up in the church and she is a beautiful girl with an ugly attitude and it started after she went into her teenage years
4:14 am
puglet

the whole mess is a such a long story---Gradyn has been through so much--its just so sad
4:14 am
sprite

how awful, puglet :( Must be hard to watch her hurting herself and her children.
4:15 am
puglet

I think the court should lissen more to the childern
4:15 am
sprite

amen to that
4:16 am
puglet

Thank You Sprite for letting me shake out this dirty laundry--lol
4:16 am
sprite

am still thinking about either a mobile, but that would be hard to hide, or a beeper maybe? Anything that will give him the feeling someone is with him?
4:17 am
Lindrickway

Puglet, he is very lucky to have you, someone who cares so much for him and is willing to fight for him
4:17 am

I will bring that up to his dad

puglet, no problem at all, I feel honored you share it with me. Wish I could help more.

Yesterday's lunch, without nasty husband, went very well as I ran into a neighbor en route, and invited her to join me, so I didn't have to eat alone. I let Burt stew on his own.....

4:30 am

one thing is certain, pug, it makes all the difference that you are there for him. I can speak from experience. Knowing someone is in your corner is so very important!
4:30 am

Good for you Ruby! Glad it worked out so well for you
4:31 am

4:35 am

the weather is really off here. It kept freezing well into april, and now it is May, almost June, and we should be able to eat outdoors, sit in the sun, the whole enchilada. But no joy.
4:42 am

we should be warmer too. One day its in the 80 and 90's then it drops down to 40's and 50's

thanks Pug - just been reading about your nephew - such a shame - is there anyway you could give a cheap cell phone so he can stay in touch whilst he's away?
4:46 am
Kazzer99

well if i hadnt decided it was a good idea to lift both feet of the ground at the same time and then get one stuck on the door way i wouldnt have the busted ribs and bad knee!!
4:47 am
sprite

love it how we all come to the same conclusion... that boy needs a way to communicate with you during his stay. I hope his father and you can come up with something that will work.
4:48 am
sprite

hehehe Kazz, yeah. But it could have ended a lot better, or worse. Shit happens. Apparently it was your turn to have a bit of bad luck :(
4:49 am
Kazzer99

but it is typical - I was just about to start a class in the gym - stretch and tone and i have actually paid for it! but never mind - I will speak with the lovely Claire and she will let me know when i can actually start
4:50 am

wow good intentions! And you didn't give them up when things didn't go your way. *salutes Kazzer*

to answer you about the phone -- I know his dad would send one with him but she would just take it away from him.And Gradyn is afraid of her I hate to say.
5:06 am

there we are again... after the hiccup :)
5:08 am

the hiccup ate my other post. I feel so sad about your Gradyn, puglet. I hope you and his dad can come up with something, anything, that might work. A preprogrammed cell phone in a stuffed animal maybe.

My German shepherd was the best dog I can imagine and incredibly smart...a 100-lb. lap dog. When I came home from the hospital after nearly dying many years ago and had to be careful going up stairs, she just immediately walked up the stairs with me, pacing herself along with me. I had one hand on the bannister and one on her back. From that day on she never let me go up the stairs alone, even when I easily could. Miss her like crazy and it has been 8 years since she passed.

That is a touching story, mimi! When I was recovering from cancer surgery, my first chow, Rosie, took care of me and wouldn't let anybody come close when I (necessarily) walked her off the leash, she would circle me and growl
9:02 am
MimiCat

She was, as most shepherds, very protective of her home. When someone would come to the door, she would get in front of me and stare at them as if to say "Touch my mommy and I'll eat your face!" But she wasn't an aggressive dog at all under any other circumstance.

The word was, when we first starting hearing about not serving the green potatoes, that the green part was a risk for a pregnant women. But even if you're cooking for a whole roomful of them, peeling deep is all that's needed. Now about that clue for the nine. . .

Hi everyone!
11:09 am
rururocks

hi jilly
11:10 am
Jillyjill

:( I am afraid I have bad news ruru.... Jane has a wedding and I completely spaced that it is graduation here...damn anyway
11:11 am
rururocks

no problem jilly
11:11 am
rururocks

my friends will have me running.. at least I'll see Montana
11:11 am
Jillyjill

We both were looking forward to a meetup....looks like pretty good weather
11:11 am
rururocks

maybe another time
11:12 am
Jillyjill

And where you are going is where I grew up, a truly magnificent area...you will have so much fun!
11:12 am
Jillyjill

And definitly! We'll make it back to the Bay Area sometime...have many friends that live there.
11:12 am
rururocks

the progressive dinner will be fun
11:13 am
Jillyjill

ahhh, is that what is planned...what a great spot.
11:13 am
rururocks

catered.. I don't have to do anything but open wine
11:14 am
Jillyjill

Rough life! ;)
11:14 am
rururocks

..but I have to talk about them.. that's exhausting :D
11:15 am
Jillyjill

I would love to learn more about wine, my knowledge consists of basic serving matches and what I like...LOL
11:15 am
rururocks

that's really all that matters jilly is what you like
11:17 am
Jillyjill

After living in the Bay Area and thus being more into wines for 30+ years, what I really dislike is the 'trending' that occurs, a wine becomes popular, and then you can't find your favs...
11:18 am
MollyL

And talking interferes with all the drinking : )
11:18 am
Jillyjill

LOL...hello there Molly! How are you today?
11:19 am
Jillyjill

and ruru, to resume discussion on wine (and drinking). One of my favs is Gewürztraminer...only have one Washington vineyard that I can get it from...
11:19 am
rururocks

unless you like talking ...
11:20 am
rururocks

there are several nice California and French Gewurztraminers jilli
11:20 am
rururocks

Navarro (in Mendocino) makes one of the best in California
11:21 am
Jillyjill

The problem is that no stores want to carry it since it isn't 'popular'....
11:21 am
rururocks

Joseph Swan has a nice Dry one
11:21 am
rururocks

you can order them to ship to you..it's usually not that much
11:21 am
Jillyjill

I am going to note that ruru...because I really love that wine, prefer less dry however..
11:22 am
rururocks

oh
11:22 am
rururocks

lemme think
11:23 am
Jillyjill

Have found and bookmarked Navarro...
11:23 am
rururocks

Fetzer makes one.. but it's pretty sweet
11:23 am
rururocks

Fetzer makes one.. but it's pretty sweet
11:23 am
Jillyjill

Poor ruru, I am making him work on a Sunday!
11:23 am
kje

I can vouch for navarro... and they have 1 penny shipping several times/year, so not too bad to order online
11:23 am
rururocks

Navarro is nice.. it's on the drier side.. but has a lot of flavor
11:24 am
Jillyjill

Hi kje...
11:25 am
kje

several of their wines are a little sweeter, just read the descriptions, they are accurate (I on the other hand, avoid the sweeter ones)
11:25 am
rururocks

you might find Hugel (French) where you are too Jilly it's good.. his Reserve Personelle
11:26 am
rururocks

...that's because you are so "sweet" already KJE :D
11:26 am
Jillyjill

I am probably somewhere in-between...not too sweet, not too dry. currently use Chateau Ste. Michelle in Woodinville WA
11:26 am
kje

exactly
11:27 am
rururocks

but if you're eating jilly.. drier is better
11:27 am
Jillyjill

Hmmm, now I want a glass of wine....
11:27 am
kje

one place less dry is better is with some of teh spicy asian cuisines
11:27 am

12:13 pm
periwinkle

I am bringing a fruit salad. deciding whether to buy ready made or put together something myself.
12:14 pm
rubyfoo

do you have a flask, peri?
12:14 pm
periwinkle

I will see what the ready made looks like first. I offered to bring something. but others are being asked to bring something whether they asked or not which i think is pretty tacky
12:15 pm
periwinkle

is tacky the right word?
12:15 pm
periwinkle

no I do not, ruby
12:15 pm
MollyL

I agree Peri.
12:16 pm
periwinkle

when I invite people over I never ask they to bring something. if they ask I usually say no.sometimes people bring something without asking and that is ok
12:17 pm

at least they will have veggie burgers for me and some others
12:17 pm

I am stuck with 88 left

Nice that they are being accommodating to vegetarians.
12:18 pm

yes, they are not usually so accomodating, I am surprised
12:19 pm
periwinkle

when I invite people I always ask if there is anything they do not eat
12:19 pm
periwinkle

I was prepared to bring my own veggie burger :)
12:19 pm
MollyL

It's hard to hit all the dietary needs these days.
12:20 pm
periwinkle

I will never forget the time a boyfriend invited me to his house for dinner. his mother cooked a ham!! mind you I am Jewish but that did not matter. The fact that I did not eat meat and he forgot to tell her. She was pretty upset.
12:20 pm
MollyL

Gluten free, lactose free, no meat, no carbs, no nuts...
12:20 pm

he is very hard. I try my best to be accomodating

Boyfriend forgot to tell Mom Peri is a vegetarian and Mom cooked a ham for dinner.

the bairn and i am watching a programme that is about a big dog shelter in london.battersea dogs home and they have cats and the dogs they get in there are unbelievable.expensive pedigree dogs but people can't afford to care for them anymore.it's sad when that happens or their lifestyle changes so they can't look after them anymore, but atleast those people take them to this home than just throw them out on the street
6:32 pm
lilliann

my parents got a dog from there when i was younger and she was such alovable caring dog.i miss her even now
6:32 pm
Uneaixoise

happens here too, lilliann -- people turn their dogs in to a shelter because they can't afford food, meds, etc. But, man, that's cruel for the dogs . . .

8:11 pm
DR1965

mexico is really close to ME
8:11 pm
blueheron

lillian, what map are you looking at?
8:11 pm

8:12 pm
DR1965

LOL--- Right Pen
8:12 pm
lilliann

oh ok, it's just that i have a map up and then it is outlining a part of the us and i thought that was new england but it has dallas in and houston and that's texas, but it also has phoenix and salt lake city and loads of other places
8:12 pm
penquis

although there is a Mexico, Maine.....and a China, Denmark, Rome, Lisbon, Paris, and other towns with international names....
8:13 pm
penquis

you are looking at the southwest, I think....
8:13 pm
lilliann

i just put in new england and all these maps appeared
8:14 pm
lilliann

so what state is before mexico?
8:14 pm
blueheron

you're ok lilli
8:14 pm
penquis

if you look at a US map, New England is the upper right, bordering on the Atlantic and Canada
8:15 pm
blueheron

you need to go to the east coast of the US.
8:15 pm
rururocks

Texas, Arizona and California border mexico lillian
8:15 pm
tabbycat

Texas, New Mexico, Arizona and California all border Mexico
8:15 pm
penquis

Texas, Nevada, Arizona, and California border Mexico, I think....
8:15 pm
penquis

maybe not nevada, lol....
8:15 pm
lilliann

nowt against my american friends, but i know alot of places as in heard of them, but i haven't got a clue which state or where they are, which will be the same for all of you as in the uk and gb
8:16 pm
penquis

i am sure you are right, lillian
8:16 pm
blueheron

how about we all meet in the middle.
8:16 pm
tabbycat

That's true Lillian...Only know a few places in GB
8:17 pm
lilliann

y all. so where is phoenix,that's not in texas is it?
8:17 pm
tabbycat

And the US is so darn big, many who live here don't know all the states or exactly where they are.
8:17 pm
penquis

Arizona
8:17 pm
lilliann

by the way, that was ty
8:17 pm
tabbycat

Phonix is in Arizona
8:17 pm
lilliann

so you have about 4 states that border mexico?
8:18 pm
blueheron

I agree, I don't know many places in the UK and GB.
8:18 pm
tabbycat

Phoenix...I meant
8:18 pm
tabbycat

Yes, 4 states
8:18 pm
lilliann

ty pen, looking now
8:19 pm
lilliann

so where is new england?
8:19 pm
lilliann

that is a state isn't it?
8:19 pm
tabbycat

The US/Mexico border is 2,600 miles long
8:20 pm
tabbycat

New England refers to the states in the north east of the US
8:20 pm
penquis

New England is actually six states...Massachusetts, Connecticut, Rhode Island, New Hampshire, Vermont and Maine
8:20 pm
blueheron

New England is a group of states on the East coast
8:20 pm
penquis

it's a region....like the south...or the midwest
8:21 pm
lilliann

i've just looked at the map and saw miami but didn't realize it was that close to mexico but we've flown over it to go to jamaica
8:21 pm
penquis

It's in the top right part of the country....the most northeast region
8:21 pm
lilliann

6 states? wow, that is big
8:21 pm
blueheron

:))
8:21 pm
penquis

if you got on a boat and sailed up the Atlantic coast, you would eventually get to New England
8:22 pm
penquis

from Miami, I meant to say
8:22 pm
tabbycat

Just looked up US/Mexico border and it's 3,169 km or 1,969 miles
8:23 pm
Book Doctor Gwen

hi all, and just jumping in to say, new engliand isn't as big as it sounds, because it is made up for six relatively small states
8:23 pm
blueheron

wow tabby, did not know that.
8:24 pm
tabbycat

I didn't either...had to look it up
8:24 pm
penquis

Maine has almost 3500 miles of tidal shoreline....lots of inlets and islands
8:24 pm
lilliann

i think getting in a car and going from dover in england to glasgow in scotland which takes about 8hours in a car roughly is bad enough.nevermind how long it takes you to get to certain places in the america
8:24 pm
lilliann

ty pen for that information
8:24 pm
Book Doctor Gwen

3 days to rive from detroit, michigan, to the lower part of florida . . .
8:24 pm
tabbycat

It takes a whole day just to drive across Texas
8:25 pm
lilliann

hi gwen, ty for that. saying that, one of your states is bigger than our whole country :)
8:25 pm
penquis

it takes about 8 hours to drive the length of Maine...it's the largest geographically of the New England states
8:25 pm
tabbycat

4 days to drive from central Florida to San Francisco, a trip we are planning to make around the first of September
8:26 pm
lilliann

no wonder it is quicker for you to fly in the america
8:26 pm
Book Doctor Gwen

i think tom paine pointed that out about 250 years ago LOL
8:26 pm
tabbycat

But hubby won't fly...so it's drive or take the train
8:26 pm
tabbycat

Lots to see along the way though
8:27 pm
lilliann

oh wow tabby. i've always wanted to go to florida and san francisco.my hubby and i want to rent an rv and drive around america
8:27 pm
lilliann

won't the train be quicker and hassle free tabby, but i don't know about the cost
8:27 pm
Book Doctor Gwen

i enjoy long distance drives, as long as i have time to stop at used book stores along the way 8-)
8:28 pm
lilliann

:) gwen
8:28 pm
tabbycat

My Belgian friend's brother did just that. Flew to California, rented a car and drove across the country, stopping along the way to see the sights, before getting to her place in the Florida Keys
8:28 pm
tabbycat

They took several weeks to make the trip
8:29 pm
lilliann

it doesn't really make any difference to me what mode of travel i do as i can't just get up and stretch my legs but i do like the one with the most to see
8:30 pm
tabbycat

The train takes about the same amount of time, but would be hassle free...expensive though. But worth it for this trip.
8:30 pm
lilliann

i think i'll have to wait until my hubby retires to do it tabby or we win alot of money in the lottery
8:31 pm
tabbycat

We keep hoping to win the lottery too
8:31 pm
lilliann

it would have to be a few months to really see and enjoy all the places we want to see
8:32 pm
tabbycat

Being able to get up and walk around is one of the advantages of the train and none of the stress of driving.
8:32 pm
lilliann

we were thinking of doing it when the bairn was younger and coming over for 4 weeks but then it meant that he wouldn't have had any more holiday time to take
8:33 pm
lilliann

my hubby has always wanted to see the grand canyon
8:34 pm
lilliann

maybe we could just get on trains and travel or is flying cheap?
8:34 pm
tabbycat

So do we. That would be a driving trip though.
8:34 pm
tabbycat

Flying is much cheaper and faster of course.
8:35 pm
penquis

flying shorter distances can be expensive
8:35 pm
penquis

if you use discount travel sites and plan ahead, you can save money
8:36 pm
lilliann

i want to do it before it is too hard for my husband to help me.he's just 51 but it's a bit of a pain travelling with me so i want it to be fun for him, not me being a nuance
8:37 pm
lilliann

the thing is, it's no use planning a few years ahead as 1, we don't know what's around the corner and 2 prices change all the time
8:38 pm
tabbycat

Traveling in coach on the train is not too expensive, but also not too comfortable for long trips. Round trip from where we live in Florida to San Francisco in the cheapest roomette is over $3,000. That's considered first class though and all meals on the train are included.
8:39 pm
lilliann

we'll do it one day, but atleast i can say i've seen some parts of america when i've flown over it :) and i've been to jfk airport and stood outside
8:39 pm
lilliann

the problem with me tabby is that i need the disabled bit so it's harder to plan and book
8:40 pm
tabbycat

If you only see one city in the US, I'd recommend Washington, DC There's so much to see and do and much of it is free
8:41 pm
lilliann

oh cool and alot of babblers live there(they're all saying no, don't come here)!lol
8:42 pm
lilliann

hopefully one day.i've always wanted to go to hawaii aswell
8:42 pm
tabbycat

Really? We made our first trip there last November for Thanksgiving. We packed so much into each day and felt like we only scratched the surface
8:42 pm
lilliann

but that is expensive from here
8:44 pm
tabbycat

As for the disabled bit...there are much easier accomodations here due to a law passed in 1990,
8:44 pm
Book Doctor Gwen

well i hate to leave in the middle of hawaii / DC but i'm off, byeeeee 8-)
8:44 pm
lilliann

i was joking about them saying it(well, maybe not to me)aye, i think there are quite a few babblers in washing state, or is that differnt...probably...my geography isn't good
8:44 pm
lilliann

bye gwen, tc
8:45 pm
lilliann

it's not the hotel rooms as such it's sitting on trains, planes etc
8:45 pm
lilliann

on a train, i need a place for my chair but i can't go backwards and i'm not good with tunnels
8:46 pm
tabbycat

Yes, Washington state is different. It's on the west coast on the Pacific Ocean and it rains a lot there. They actually have a rainforest
8:46 pm
lilliann

i get dizzy on planes when we first take off for about an hour and i end up sleeping
8:47 pm
lilliann

really? wow
8:47 pm
tabbycat

Amtrak trains have special handicapped bedrooms and you can get your meals delivered to the room
8:48 pm
lilliann

i wouldn't want my food delivered i'd be happy to go and eat in the restaurant if my wheelchair can get there but i can get into a seat if needed.i just don't like to take up seats when i don't need to, as it means more spaces for others
8:49 pm
lilliann

if i have my hubby i don't need special anything and to be quite honest i don't want it.he'll just throw me up into a bed and around to where ever i need to go to :)
8:49 pm
tabbycat

Don't know if a wheelchair can make it to the dining car. We've only made one train trip so far. We usually drive
8:50 pm
lilliann

well, if we ever do travel on a train in the US, i'll just get hubby to do a fireman's lift and we'll be fine
8:51 pm
lilliann

it's all wishful thinking tabby.hopefully one day it wioll happen
8:51 pm
tabbycat

Our trains are not as nice as the ones there and in most of Europe
8:51 pm
lilliann

our's are crap!!
8:52 pm
lilliann

alot of your's have 2 levels?
8:52 pm
tabbycat

I dream of making a trip over there one day too. Would have to win the lottery though
8:52 pm
tabbycat

Really, I thought they were nice and much faster than ours.
8:53 pm
penquis

can someone clue the last re word please?
8:53 pm
lilliann

not in the uk.the french ones are faster than ours i think.our's are always delayed because there are leaves on the line or snow
8:53 pm
tabbycat

The trains that run in the west have 2 levels. The east coast routes have low tunnels so only one level
8:53 pm
lilliann

no sorry pen, i only have 4 re words
8:54 pm
torgone

French fox
8:54 pm
tabbycat

Ours are often delayed, because they run on tracks that are owned by the freight trains, and the freight trains have precedence. Passenger trains will have to pull onto a siding and wait for the freight trains to pass.

voice recognition is great, but when there are mistakes it takes as long to find and correct them as it does to just transcribe in the first place

it's ok trif, i only got it from a clue :)
9:40 pm
lilliann

oh ok, well atleast it won't hurt then.apparently i'm suppose to be getting tested every year for glaucoma, is that right pip?
9:40 pm
lilliann

can i have a clue for all 3 de8's please
9:41 pm
pippingeek

generally if you have it in your family and have risk factors it's wise to do so
9:41 pm
pippingeek

molly i can only imagine the mess it makes of the abbreviations and acronyms we use too!
9:42 pm
lilliann

ty, it's just that my optician see's me every 2 years for my eye test but i was told if a family member has it i should be tested yearly.saying that my opticians are a widely known shop and all about money, and not p[eople
9:43 pm
lilliann

and i had a woman in her 80's notes given to me a few years ago which had her address on, which isn't good, so god knows who got mine as they've lost mine twice

and that was also on the computor that they lost all my information
9:46 pm

ouch
9:48 pm
lilliann

exactly, especially with computor fraud and they'll have all my details!
9:49 pm

no, the best thing you can do with glaucoma is catch it early and control it, since it is irreversible
