12:48 am

Hiya peach... Rob and I have been busy making house plans...

12:55 am

gapeach

Hey there. So,did you decide on the land that you told me about?

12:55 am

Yvooria

That particular lot seems a bit out of reach... think 700 ft paved driveway with grading... but there is another lot that is just lovely (but not as dramatic or remote)

12:56 am

Yvooria

He has a program that lets you design the house.. never seen a man have so much fun putting a dollhouse together :)

12:56 am

gapeach

That would run into quite a bit, just with the driveway, wouldn't it?.

12:56 am

gapeach

Aw, that is so cute.

12:57 am

There will be a lovely ground level guest quarters (hint, hint)

1:13 am

grannyrose

ah, thanx for that, ruru. was worried i had upset her

1:13 am

puglet

I think thats common Rose of people that lived through the great depression

1:13 am

rururocks

or she was a hoarder

1:13 am

puglet

My grandmother too saved everything thinking one day it will come in use

1:13 am

kje

no... not offended at all, granny - assumed you were joking

1:14 am

rururocks

1:14 am

grannyrose

1:15 am

rururocks

1:15 am

grannyrose

i already have 4 large bin bags of clothing etc. and i haven't started on the wardrobe...

1:15 am

puglet

1:22 am

rururocks

he was a 10 pound 8 oz premie :D

1:23 am

puglet

how far apart are you and your brother RU

1:23 am

grannyrose

and all this means that lawrie has the most right to mum's estate ( after the money of course ) fang thinks she can sail in and take possession of all of MIL's jewellery.

1:23 am

rururocks

1:23 am

1:26 am

rururocks

LOL

1:26 am

grannyrose

don is sitting here saying i should have first selection of MIL's jewellery because of how much i did for MIL. but according to fang, all i did was cook her a bit of dinner and do a bit of her washing. * rolls eyes *

1:27 am

rururocks

I think fang should go screw herself..but that's my opinion

1:27 am

kje

1st 2 of 8?

1:27 am

yeah pink, i'm back. so watch it...

1:28 am

pink17

I am glad grannyrose

1:28 am

kje

apparently, I'm not one... ty

1:28 am

puglet

If MIL wanted her to have certain things I think she would of let eveyone know

1:28 am

grannyrose

lol, kje

1:28 am

rururocks

*ties fingers*

1:29 am

kje

down to 15... seems like a nice round number so will stop here - gn all

1:30 am

grannyrose

that's what puzzles me, pugs. she never said a word. my own mum told my bro' over and over that her jewellery was to come to me. but MIL never said a word.

1:30 am

kje

last plea for featherbee- read my profile!

1:30 am

rururocks

night kje.. thanks for the laughs..

1:31 am

puglet

My grandmother put the name on things that were to go to either my dad or his sister

1:32 am

pink17

granny please clarify has mil passed? and your mother?

1:32 am

grannyrose

and she told fang that a particular item of jewellery was in a certain place...and it was no where near there. do i hand it over??

1:32 am

grannyrose

pink, yes dear, my mum on the 21st nov, and MIL on the 7th dec.

1:32 am

puglet

well Rose, I would say its up to Don and his brother then. She never fretted over her daughters getting things

1:33 am

grannyrose

pugs, they are not her daughters, step-daughters only...

1:33 am

pink17

om goodness sorry for the double hit

1:33 am

puglet

what does Don think about it

1:34 am

grannyrose

it's okay pink...and in the middle, i had my revision total knee replacement.

1:34 am

puglet

I say if MIL wanted her to have those things she would of made it clear to you or don

1:35 am

grannyrose

pugs, as i said, don thinks i should have first selection...

1:35 am

joym999

argh...only one left and I can't figure it out!

1:35 am

pink17

I knew that how u feeling

1:35 am

grannyrose

joy, dear, which one?

1:36 am

joym999

IN 6 (the first one)

1:36 am

rururocks

to put in

1:36 am

grannyrose

to put in, in6

1:36 am

puglet

then I say follow your heart on that Rose

1:37 am

joym999

thanks. I was looking at the wrong N. Some of my fireworks belong to you all, as usual!

1:37 am

grannyrose

well my heart says, give the lot to fang...i don't need the jewellery to remember MIL.

1:37 am

grannyrose

WTG JOY!!!

1:38 am

puglet

what about the other sister? Does she want anything

1:39 am

puglet

and is Fang wanting this due to it was her stepmother or is she wanting it to sale

1:39 am

grannyrose

now there lies the rub....will fang allow her anything? not sure what the answer is..

1:40 am

grannyrose

ohhh, pugs. don't know the answer to that one.

1:41 am

puglet

maybe Don should call his other sister and ask her if there is anything she wants

1:43 am

puglet

or you could do as don says and take what you want, sell off the rest and remodel the rooms for you and Don to use as you want

1:45 am

grannyrose

* giggle * pugs...my thoughts are let fang have the lot

1:47 am

puglet

I say its your choice then--do it and have it done with and I de also send along the bags of other stuff to Fang as well

1:48 am

puglet

tell her to bring a truck along-lol

1:49 am

grannyrose

so do not need any arguments...and she is so argumentative. * giggle * already have set aside heaps of letters/cards etc for her to so4 out.

1:51 am

puglet

I understand and dont blame you at all

1:51 am

grannyrose

if she doesn't turn up before christmas, we will take it all over christmas day. we are hoping to turn MIL's rooms in4 our new bedroom/sitting room, dressing room. i don't think she realises this.

1:52 am

puglet

that will be nice and what are you going to do with your bedroom you have now? Turn it in4 your music room

1:53 am

grannyrose

MIL's lounge room which will be our new bedroom/sitting room has an airconditioner in it.

1:54 am

grannyrose

yeah, pugs. our lounge room/ music room. my goodness, we will have so much space.

1:55 am

puglet

now you can get you a new tutu because now you got room to dance for Don

1:56 am

grannyrose

you should have seen her face! she said to us that she was taking half of mum's ashes to scotland. and i said, hope you don't mind company as that is where don and i will be next year.

1:57 am

puglet

Is that where MIL is from

1:57 am

grannyrose

roflol, pugs. nice thought. i might have to resuscitate don. yes, dear. she is from the isle of harris.

1:59 am

puglet

Is Don also from there? Is this why you are going there next year

2:01 am

grannyrose

no, don is australian born and bred. scotland is part of our world tour. fang couldn't understand why we never went overseas. with MIL to care for, our holidays were seriously curtailed. i want to spend 4-6 months touring the world. knowing it may be the last time ever.

2:02 am

puglet

oh, that sounds so fine! Yes, do it if you can! Dont forget the camera!

2:03 am

grannyrose

pugs, my own ancestors are from england and scotland.

2:03 am

puglet

Are you planning on doing it all by ship?

2:04 am

grannyrose

just watch out, pugs. if we go next year, i will probably be knocking on your door.

2:04 am

puglet

alright! :)

2:05 am

puglet

have you ever been in the states here

2:05 am

grannyrose

i think flying over is the best idea. may be a few cruises around the mediterranean.

2:06 am

puglet

does Don enjoy traveling too

2:06 am

grannyrose

no, dearest. it is gonna be such a buzz. so many people to see...so many places to visit..

2:06 am

grannyrose

he does now. i introduced him to the wonders of travel.

2:07 am

puglet

wow Rose, you surely are in for a treat doing all that! Will I see you two on motorbikes? LOL

2:08 am

grannyrose

lolol..sure hope so, hun. won't be travelling until i can manage to board a motorbike.

2:10 am

puglet

on tv this month they came out with a new comerical(sp) about this old women riding in a sidecar with her son and hes telling how fun it is and she says " It wasent fun for me!" makes me laugh everytime plus I think of you too -LOL

yay, ruru. you betcha!!

2:13 am

puglet

I know that there are some really nice hogs out there on the road.

2:14 am

puglet

I have always wanted to hook up with one of those cross country wagon ride with the horses

2:16 am

grannyrose

pugs, how is your sis doing?

2:17 am

puglet

she was doing good but last night her sugar was up to all most 500 :(

2:18 am

puglet

I think a part of it is she hasent been able to get out for exercising due to the weather

2:18 am

grannyrose

egad, pugs. what happened? do you know?

2:19 am

grannyrose

ahhh, of course. do you have a stationery bike she can exercise on?

2:19 am

puglet

I dont know Rose---the reading the day before was 150

2:21 am

puglet

Rose I bought her a bike, a treadmill and other stuff but one or two days she wont bother with them any more. So I got rid of them

2:22 am

puglet

it is so hard to get her interested in anything-even things to exercise her mind

2:27 am

grannyrose

pugs, i found a player of my cd's helped me stay on the bike. does she like music?

2:29 am

puglet

she does, and Ive tried that Rose. Ive put the treadmill in front of the tv and tried putting it out on the deck in nice weather, nothing worked

2:30 am

puglet

I even got her a real bike and that didnt work either

2:31 am

grannyrose

why do i feel like the baddie here? earlier today don told me he wanted to spray the weeds encroaching on our ' newish ' landscaped backyard. now, when i suggest he go out and do it, in the cool of the day, and the area is in shade, i get 20 questions as to why he can't do it...is it me?

2:32 am

grannyrose

* sigh * pugs. i don't know what the answer is then.

2:33 am

puglet

Is it a man thing? Often times Ive aked mine to do this or that and its the same for me--did the birds ever get their water

2:35 am

grannyrose

ruru?? you here still? or is joso or crossy around? please give us some insight in4 the male mind.

2:36 am

puglet

Joso hasent been on for days---think he's gotten a woman and dont have time for us anymore

2:40 am

puglet

Rose, I got a 40 by 40 barn , that once housed my horses and its also has a loft on each side and hubby has pretty well took it over. I cant ever store a toothpick in it for its in his way---explain that to me--lol

2:41 am

grannyrose

for goodness sake...pugs. don't know the answer to that one.

2:42 am

puglet

I even have to keep my toolbox on the back deck because theres no room in the barn for it anymore

2:42 am

grannyrose

hey, pugs..how are you going with the grid? can i assist you?

2:43 am

grannyrose

lucky you, pugs. my tool kit is in the bedroom, under the dressing table.

2:44 am

puglet

I finding it harder today, not even close to halfway so too much to ask for help yet on anything- but thanks anyway

2:46 am

puglet

truthfully I havent really gotten right down in4 it just yet either. Iam slow witted today

2:47 am

grannyrose

pugs, with so much going on in your head, i am not surprised.

2:49 am

puglet

at one time in my life I took up collecting hammers--loll Dont know why they attracted me(which they still do) but I dont often buy many any more. But I got several

2:49 am

puglet

I just sitting here enjoying you my coffee and music and the quiet of the early morning

2:51 am

grannyrose

??? hammers ?? oh my goodness!

2:52 am

puglet

I know! lol-----something about them just draws me to them at sales

2:53 am

puglet

you would be surprise of the many different kinds

2:53 am

grannyrose

* grinning * perhaps it's their latent potential.

2:54 am

puglet

it could be--:)

2:54 am

grannyrose

shouts...' look out ' to pug's hubby...

2:56 am

puglet

I wouldnt want to damage my hammers on that hard head==LOL

2:56 am

grannyrose

can smell dinner cooking...and tummy grumbling. goodnight, dearest. see you at the flip

2:56 am

sprite

good morning all :)

2:57 am

sprite

rose! How lovely to see you. And pug! *hugs* to you both.

2:57 am

grannyrose

aagghh...sprite, was just saying goodnight, dear.

2:57 am

puglet

SPRTE! at last we meet! lol

2:57 am

sprite

lool. Ok hun, enjoy your dinner.

2:57 am

sprite

lol pug, indeed!

2:58 am

grannyrose

hun, will talk tomorrow.

2:58 am

puglet

bye Rose then! are you coming back?

2:58 am

sprite

all good, rose, you go and take care of yourself. *hugs*

2:58 am

puglet

good night then Rose, hugs

2:59 am

puglet

How are you Sprite

2:59 am

sprite

am good! And you?

3:00 am

puglet

slow moving right now but Iam okay

3:00 am

puglet

got a late start on here this morning

3:00 am

sprite

did you sleep in?

3:01 am

puglet

no. was doing a few things

3:01 am

sprite

ah too bad. So nice to sleep in, once in a while :)

3:02 am

puglet

cant seem to get in4 this grid today for some reason

3:03 am

sprite

some days are like that. Some grids are like that.

3:05 am

puglet

I was telling Rose, I seem to be sitting here enjoying my coffee, quiet and chatting here and a word now and then---guess right at this second Iam just content--lol oh and I got music on too :)

3:06 am

sprite

sounds just about perfect, pug. Even babble is only a means to a goal, right? So if you can reach that goal without finding many words, who gives a... rat's ass?

3:06 am

puglet

lol--right!

3:07 am

sprite

love to see you content and in peace :)

3:07 am

puglet

thanks---hope you are feeling the same

3:08 am

sprite

I did sleep in a little. But yes, am happy here. All quiet in the house, kids at school, my love at work. Terra snoring at my feet. All good.

3:08 am

puglet

the sun is to shine today and Iam going to be soaking up what I can of it

3:09 am

sprite

sounds like a plan. Sun works wonders on us.

3:10 am

puglet

today and for the next several days we are heading into a warm up but with heavy rains over the week end

3:11 am

sprite

rain is not pleasant, but bettr than snow, I think?

3:11 am

puglet

so our snow should be mostly gone by monday or so--:)

3:11 am

sprite

good! Easier to go out then.

3:12 am

puglet

I dont mind the rain, its the mud I dont care for-:( But all cant be perfect---Rain is a cleanser and its suppose to bring good luck

3:13 am

sprite

lol, not here it isn't. Rain is more or less a way of life here.

3:14 am

puglet

I would rather have the rain then not to have any

3:14 am

sprite

rain isn't so bad, mostly. Just wet.

3:15 am

puglet

I seen on tv that they are coming out with unbrellas with a light in them---wouldnt that be cool

3:15 am

sprite

ro4 is in the grid today!

3:15 am

sprite

lol yes indeed! Practical too.

3:15 am

puglet

I know

3:16 am

sprite

took me a while to process the fact :)

3:17 am

puglet

when will you find out what became of the doctor visit

3:17 am

sprite

Friday at the earliest.

3:17 am

puglet

do you take in alot of salt

3:18 am

puglet

please let me know if its good or bad if you dont mind

3:18 am

sprite

no, very little.

3:18 am

sprite

I will, hun. Thanks for caring. I don't expect any dramatic results.

3:18 am

puglet

if you are holding water Sprite that there will not let your weight be right

3:19 am

puglet

Iam not a salt person either

3:19 am

sprite

true. Might explain the lack of weight loss.

3:20 am

puglet

it could, just dont give up on yourself

3:20 am

sprite

oh I won't. That is one thing I still have trouble with in life... learning to give up. On anything, lol.

3:20 am

puglet

Ive read that some can go for sometime before they see loss by the scales

3:22 am

sprite

yes, indeed. We will see. If the blood tests are inconclusive, I have to go to the hospital for an echo of the arteries in the legs.

3:23 am

puglet

they were saying on the news last night that taking vitamins was a waste of a persons time and money. I dont know if I belive that or not, do you?

3:23 am

sprite

I don't believe that. Some vitamins are essential and it can make a big difference in how we feel and for our health if we take them or not.

3:23 am

puglet

are you on a water pill now

3:24 am

sprite

I have medication for high bloodpressure and it is also a mild water pill.

3:25 am

puglet

have you had trouble before with holding water

3:25 am

sprite

no, never before.

3:26 am

puglet

could one of your new meds becausing it? Some kind of side effect

3:26 am

sprite

doctor is looking into it. It is not listed among the normal side effects, but she is checking out if it has ever occurred.

3:28 am

puglet

and it could be the comination of some together--not just one by its self too

3:28 am

puglet

I think I spelt that wronge---the mixing of meds

3:29 am

sprite

also possible. Seeing how things usually go with me, all tests will be inconclusive and we will end up with treating the symptom.

3:29 am

sprite

you make perfect sense, hun, don't worry about a missing letter ;)

3:30 am

puglet

I think they have a pill for everything anymore--LOL

3:30 am

sprite

roflol

3:30 am

puglet

from hairloss to toe nail fungus

3:31 am

sprite

yeah, seems that way, grin

3:38 am

sprite

pug, how is your sister doing?

3:39 am

puglet

yesterday her sugar was up to 500 and the day before it was 150

3:39 am

sprite

oh dear. That does not sound good. What is that in mmol/l ?

3:39 am

puglet

Iam thinking part of it is she hasent been able to get out to walk due to weather

3:40 am

sprite

could very well be.

3:40 am

puglet

Iam not sure Sprite

3:43 am

puglet

are you flying through this grid

3:44 am

puglet

Joso hasent been on for days--you think he might have a new lady friend and dont have time for us now? LOL

3:44 am

sprite

yes, easy grid, almost done. I think the USA measures milligrams per deciliter. And we measure millimol per liter.

3:45 am

puglet

I think you are right

3:46 am

sprite

found a converter, lol. Ok, that is very very very high, pug. Even the 150 is still high. How awful for you both.

3:47 am

puglet

I dont know what to do Sprite...:(

3:48 am

sprite

Joso might be busy with sorting out the mess from moving, getting a feel for his new home. Or maybe no internet?

3:48 am

sprite

I don't blame you, pug. This is crazy. So hard to know what to do with values like that, especially since she isn't eating the wrong stuff.

3:50 am

puglet

its so hard to get her motivated to do anything--both body wise and mental wise

3:52 am

sprite

she should exercise every day... not too much, just enough to get the juices going.

3:53 am

sprite

did I tell you we had a temp teacher for psychomotoric therapy week before last? He had some good tips...

3:54 am

puglet

I know--I try giving her things to do just for that--but I got to tell her everything to do step by step--with winter its much more harder

3:54 am

sprite

like using your normal things as exercise. For instance, when you go sit in a chair, don't make it to fully sit, stretch back up, then sit down.

3:54 am

puglet

no--what good things did he give you? Things that might help me

3:55 am

sprite

push yourself up from the armrests a couple of times. Push your hands together as hard as you can. When you are seated, lift your leg or legs a couple of times.

3:57 am

sprite

the idea is you don't have to do anything you don't normally do already... just build on them and make them in4 a tiny exercise.

3:57 am

puglet

I use to like jumping rope--dont know if I still can with out tripping my self--lol

3:57 am

sprite

it is really hard on you, pug. You have to spend a load of energy and you don't get the results you would wish for your sister. That is doubly hard.

3:57 am

rubyfoo

good morning,my friends

3:57 am

puglet

I will work on that myself and have her too

3:58 am

puglet

Hey Ruby! been awhile

3:58 am

sprite

hi ruby *hugs* How is the battle of the paperwork going?

3:58 am

puglet

how are you doing

3:59 am

sprite

and pug, you can think up new ones yourself. Almost everything we do can be a little exercise.

3:59 am

rubyfoo

it is quiet for the moment. IU've sent off a fortune to all of them *you know who) and now am waiting for the other shoe to drop. It is thought that this will go on for years or even, possibly, until I die and then afterwards

4:01 am

puglet

are you going to be able to stay put after all this

4:01 am

rubyfoo

that is the big question and the one that worries me the most

4:02 am

sprite

jeezz ruby, how stressful

4:02 am

puglet

I hope for the best for you Ruby

4:02 am

sprite

so do I

4:03 am

rubyfoo

the only good thing to come out of this is that John and I are on good terms again. He makes me very stressed but, at the same time, he cares and helps me, even remotely, to get organizaed. Of course, one of his concerns is whether or not he will inherit my debt when I die

4:04 am

puglet

I dont see why he would

4:04 am

rubyfoo

nobody seems to know how long the arm of the fisc actually is. They have the power, but would they actually use it to its full extent?

4:05 am

sprite

am very glad for you that John is so supportive.

4:05 am

puglet

do you know how you got in such a mess

4:06 am

puglet

brb need a refill

4:06 am

rubyfoo

yes but I can't go into it here

4:08 am

rubyfoo

it is a long and boring story

4:09 am

sprite

poor ruby :(

4:09 am

rubyfoo

"the gift that keeps on giving" like herpes lol

4:09 am

sprite

argh yes

4:12 am

puglet

I feel for you Ruby--so sorry that all this is upon you and plus the problems with hubby too and hes not able to help you through all this

4:12 am

rubyfoo

and he doesn't remember what he did to set this whole mess in motion

4:12 am

rubyfoo

(or what was on TV last night) lol

4:13 am

sprite

poor man. And poor ruby.

4:15 am

rubyfoo

half and off to deal with "that poor man" hahah I've been angry at him for 4 years so far

4:16 am

puglet

bye Ruby, will put you in my prayers

4:16 am

sprite

be kind, darling... he cannot help himself. And be kind to yourself too. Here's a big *hug*.

4:16 am

rubyfoo

thank you puglet, I need them!

4:16 am

rubyfoo

bye sprite. See you later

4:17 am

rubyfoo

sprite, I've found a great way to lose weight -- fisc trouble! lol

4:17 am

sprite

aw sweetie... I'd rather stay obese,lol

4:18 am

rubyfoo

I lost a kilo this week not good

4:18 am

sprite

def. not good

4:19 am

puglet

Sprite is there such a rabbit with a coat like that

4:19 am

puglet

Ruby, you need to take care of yourself

4:23 am

sprite

pug, no it is a fantasy rabbit. Someone photoshopped it.

4:23 am

sprite

sorry, was afk, acute potty break

4:24 am

sprite

4:24 am

puglet

I have had rabbits with many different coats--even brindle ones

4:24 am

puglet

4:25 am

Hugs and enjoy you day to the fullest!

4:27 am

3.A company trying to continue its five-year perfect safety record showed its workers a film aimed at encouraging the use of safety goggles on the job. According to Industrial Machinery News, the film's depiction of gory industrial accidents was so graphic that twenty-five workers suffered minor injuries in their rush to leave the screening room. Thirteen others fainted, and one man required seven stitches after he cut his head falling off a chair while watching the film.

is that a word? I knew it as a 'name'

6:18 am

zoozzoom

You are most welcome, Cosmo :-)

6:21 am

zoozzoom

Not sure why it is accepted as i would of thought it was a proper noun..but there we go.

6:29 am

Cosmo Kramer

i can think of 2 reasons
1. It may be a unit of something - like Ohms, Jule etc. (named after him)
2. or it has acquired a meaning of 'smart person'..
just my wild guess

6:31 am

bojazz

cosmo - a unit of radiant energy

6:31 am

ladycece920

dictionary says it's a unit of radiant energy

6:32 am

o-o

For years I have tried to remedy the misconception players have about the types of words purportedly not allowed. Any proper noun, abbreviation, contraction, hyphenated word or foreign word that is in the Enable Dictionary is allowed. Really quite simple.

5:28 pm

o-o

tr 7.28 - most passe

5:29 pm

Nef

so, in a way, you blessed the bad weather?

5:30 pm

Scrabbler

We have had snow daily for the last 9 days and have gotten close to 50 inches of snow!

5:32 pm

Nef

We've had over a foot of snow so far and temps around zero all month. Yesterday and today we actually got above freezing for the first time in weeks. (I feel your pain!)

5:32 pm

Nef

Normally we don't get this type of weather until January

5:33 pm

Scrabbler

The snow is wonderful for XC-skiing and snowshoeing! But we will have 4 days above freezing, with rain, starting tomorrow.

5:35 pm

Nef

The good news (for us) is that the snow is still soft and fluffy. Not good for going sliding with my grandson; and I'm glad we haven't had too much wind with this.

5:35 pm

o-o

You can go snow surfing in the rain

5:36 pm

Nef

now, o-o, that sounds miserable!

5:36 pm

Scrabbler

I hope the snow doesn't all melt.

5:37 pm

Nef

It would take a lot of rain with 50 inches of snow, Scrabs

5:37 pm

Scrabbler

Yes,

5:39 pm

o-o

You must remember the dj that gave the surfing report for Lake Michigan on WLS, Nef?

5:40 pm

Nef

nope, o-o, we didn't get WLS.

5:40 pm

o-o

July 27, 2009 (WLS) -- After lifting a decades-long ban, the surf's up in Chicago! Find out where to catch a wave on Lake Michigan

5:45 pm

Nef

for some reason, it was easier to get CKRC in the late evening than any other radio station

5:46 pm

Nef

I Googled that when you first mentioned it, o-o. I was surprised about all of the surfing reports on the great lakes!

5:48 pm

o-o

How odd of me to remember something like that ...

5:49 pm

Nef

our brains play lots of tricks on us, don't they. BTW, I just checked; I lived much closer to Winnepeg than Bismark growing up. I imagine that's why we got CKRC the best

5:51 pm

o-o

Contrast a surfing report with the Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald

5:51 pm

Nef

LOL!

He just got off a run of steroids for an MS relapse; and he gets bossy, impatient, and feels like he has to do all sorts of stuff he shouldn't (like scrape the ice off the driveway!)

it is indeed. We just got his biopsy results today, 12 days after they were taken. He'll need to go on some kind of medication for the Crohn's.

8:04 pm

Nef

Keeping you guys in my thoughts and prayers……..

8:04 pm

uusue2

thanks!!

8:04 pm

Nef

I was on your Caring Bridge site already this evening

8:05 pm

uusue2

oh, ok, I go into more detail there (and here) than I do on Facebook

8:06 pm

Nef

I always hate the wait times for results on the tests

8:07 pm

uusue2

me too

8:07 pm

rururocks

that's not good news sue. I hope it turns out to be nothing

8:07 pm

uusue2

hi ruru, I hope so too!

8:08 pm

Nef

did they mention any meds for the Crohn's yet?

8:08 pm

uusue2

not yet, Nef, we have to go talk to the gastroenterologist

8:09 pm

Nef

is this the same doctor who took care of him originally?

8:10 pm

uusue2

no, he has all new doctors now that he is on my insurance

8:10 pm

stidmama

((((NefNSue)))) hey all

8:10 pm

uusue2

hi stid!

8:11 pm

Nef

Be sure and have his full history there then

8:11 pm

Nef

hi stid!

8:11 pm

uusue2

yes, they have it already, nef

8:11 pm

Nef

do you have copies of everything too?

8:13 pm

uusue2

yes, they made copies and gave it all back to us

8:14 pm

Nef

(only reason I'm asking is a nurse friend's grandmother fell and broke her pelvis back in August and the family wasn't told about how severe the break was until this past week when she fell again! they were told she'd torn her performs muscle and ligament!) Sometimes it's necessary to be over prepared.

8:15 pm

JenMO16

hi everyone

8:15 pm

uusue2

ah - yes, when we got his records from the hospital we read them all, or almost all

8:15 pm

uusue2

hi Jen!

8:16 pm

JenMO16

hi uussue2!

8:16 pm

Nef

(I'm so angry and upset with the docs about this -as is my friend-- that I don't want it to happen to anyone else!)

8:16 pm

Nef

HI Jen.

8:16 pm

JenMO16

hi Nef!

8:17 pm

JenMO16

I got good news today---finally!

8:17 pm

uusue2

ooh, do tell, jen!

8:17 pm

uusue2

also, fireworks

8:17 pm

Nef

what's your good news, Jen?

8:17 pm

stidmama

Wow Nef -- sounds pretty awful. Something similar happened when my grandmother fell years ago -- the docs at the hospital, the nursing home she was sent to and her regular doc didn't talk to each other and sure as shooting didn't communicate with Granny's children... so frustrating

8:17 pm

stidmama

YAY SUE!

8:17 pm

stidmama

*waiting for Jen*

8:18 pm

JenMO16

went to my cardiologist today and everything looks good!

8:18 pm

Nef

WOOHOO,Jen!

8:18 pm

JenMO16

she was even proud of my cholesterol!

8:18 pm

uusue2

yay jen!!!!!!!!

8:19 pm

Nef

that's terrific news, Jen.

8:20 pm

Nef

Have you been having problems lately?

8:21 pm

JenMO16

however, I wasn't very happy about the waits!

8:21 pm

JenMO16

Appointment was at 9:15AM and I didn't get out till 11:00!

8:22 pm

JenMO16

And they didn't do anything major!

8:22 pm

JenMO16

their is a family history of heart disease, Nef and since I am 50.....

8:23 pm

Nef

Speaking as an old cardiac nurse, just be glad you weren't the one taking up all of their time.

8:23 pm

JenMO16

I was crying and everything, anxiety attack

8:24 pm

uusue2

((((Jen)))) glad you got through it all with flying colors!

8:25 pm

Nef

When DH went to see his Neuro doc this time for his "regular" appointment (he needs to be seen every 3 months due to some of his meds); the doctor spent almost 1 1/2 hours with him (us, really. DH has a memory problem). That's when he diagnosed the MS relapse.

8:26 pm

Nef

Am I remembering correctly that your Mom had a heart attack (or was that someone else when your Mom was ill)

8:26 pm

JenMO16

I guess I was upset because they didn't tell me she was running behind, I felt they had forgotten me!

8:28 pm

Nef

Ahh! See, I'm pro-active in that situation; I'm the patient (or relative) that opens the door and flags down someone so they don't forget me

8:29 pm

JenMO16

both of my parents have had heart attacks

8:29 pm

JenMO16

mom is the most recent

8:32 pm

JenMO16

I need one more J word I have one and its possessive

8:33 pm

penquis

think of a female nickname....could be male, too

8:34 pm

penquis

just change your vowel

8:34 pm

JenMO16

thanks, pen

8:35 pm

penquis

yw

8:36 pm

JenMO16

yeah, I am under 100 words :0)

8:38 pm

JenMO16

now where are the other 98 words?

8:43 pm

JenMO16

I feel all alone now!

8:43 pm

harpjane

hi

8:44 pm

penquis

still here...hi harp

8:44 pm

harpjane

19 to go

8:45 pm

JenMO16

hi harp!

8:47 pm

Nef

I'm still here too. Just got distracted for a bit

8:47 pm

JenMO16

ok

8:49 pm

JenMO16

oh I forgot, the dr. said I had great carbs!

8:50 pm

Nef

I do believe that someone said it's a tricky grid today. I'm finding that out; and will need to go to Lickety tonight

8:50 pm

JenMO16

I'm already there!

8:51 pm

Nef

great carbs??? do you mean your blood sugar is under control?

8:51 pm

JenMO16

yep

8:51 pm

JenMO16

wait a minute

8:51 pm

Nef

ok. that makes sense

8:51 pm

JenMO16

I meant cholesterol!

8:52 pm

Nef

you did say cholesterol earlier

8:52 pm

Nef

what was it?

8:52 pm

JenMO16

I think I am losing my memory!

8:53 pm

JenMO16

I believe 80 something?

8:53 pm

Nef

it's okay, we all lose it at some point.

8:54 pm

Nef

Wow! If it was your cholesterol, that's fantastic.

8:55 pm

JenMO16

and I don't exercise or eat right

8:57 pm

penquis

80 something sounds almost impossible...

8:58 pm

harpjane

done! ta da!

8:58 pm

penquis

congrats!

8:58 pm

Nef

YAY, Harpjane!!! WTG!!!

8:59 pm

Nef

It does seem low, pen, but my doctor likes our cholesterol levels around 100 these days

9:02 pm

Nef

now if the HDH is around 80, that's terrific, same with the triglycerides. And the LDL shouldn't be that high; so I ruled that out (that's the bad cholesterol)

9:03 pm

JenMO16

I'll have to ask if they call about the poor rating I gave them, (I told them in the survey I wanted to be contacted)

9:04 pm

Nef

Did they give you your results, Jen?

9:05 pm

JenMO16

they told me what it was in August, not tested for it last week

9:05 pm

Nef

ok

9:07 pm

Nef

Too many interruptions here tonight; I'm going to quit for now. Happy Babbling Everyone; and good night!

9:09 pm

JenMO16
