1:33 am
grannyrose

lol, he was so lovely. my usual physio has gone on holiday and handed me over to the physio i had in the pool last time. when he saw me, he rushed across the waiting room and gave me a huge hug.
1:33 am
grannyrose

then he said...the pool hasn't been the same without you...i'm not sure if that was a compliment..
1:34 am
puglet

puglet

Oh, you are at the pool now

re hi Liz
1:38 am
grannyrose

hey liz. we are smoked out here. it is bl4ing up from gippsland and from the other side of the ranges.
1:38 am
Lizlin

ewwww! You poor things. How's Don's asthma with the smoke?
1:39 am
Lizlin

And you, for that matter.
1:39 am
grannyrose

he's staying inside, with the air-con. filtering all the air.
1:40 am
Lizlin

I know you've got physio etc. but can you get away for a while?
1:40 am
puglet

Liz is right--maybe you should flee for awhile
1:41 am
Lizlin

From the maps and videos we've seen, the situation looks really awful.
1:41 am
grannyrose

not really, but if it gets worse we might have to do so.
1:41 am
Lizlin

Speak to the doc - maybe you can have a temporary referral somewhere else?
1:42 am
Lizlin

How can there be another 26 4 and 5 letter words. Like Cos said, should be easy!!!
1:43 am
puglet

a nice small houseboat on the water sounds like a safe place from those fires--:)
1:43 am
grannyrose

all we need is a good stiff breeze. maybe we should be handing out burritos...lol
1:43 am
Lizlin

1:45 am
puglet

1:47 am
puglet

How has your day been Liz
1:48 am
Lizlin

OK - got a new car last week and it's not behaving properly so we've been back and forwards to the garage - necessary but not my choice of how to spend a day!
1:49 am
grannyrose

ugh, liz. hope it's not a lemon!!
1:49 am
puglet

thats not the makings of a nice day at all Liz
1:49 am
Lizlin

Not a problem if it is - new car - Honda Jazz - they'll sort it or replace it.
1:50 am
Lizlin

Just irritating at the moment.
1:51 am
puglet

I can understand that
1:53 am
Lizlin

20! Getting there!
1:54 am
grannyrose

yeah, liz. don and i are discussing a new car for me. i really like toyota. have my second one, but it is a manual. i want bottom of the range corolla, had one before and loved it. don says i am to have a few luxuries. i just come to grips with spending unnecessary money on a car. i don't live in it, for goodness sake!
1:55 am
grannyrose

*insert...can't...come to grips with *
1:55 am
Lizlin

The Jazz is manual - our 3rd Jazz. My first was in England. Honda offering 1.5% interest at the moment! Too good not to do especially as our old car was out of warranty and someone had driven into the back of it!
1:56 am
grannyrose

how rude of them liz.
1:56 am
Lizlin

And of course didn't leave a note! Even ruder! The cost of repair was ridiculous!
1:56 am
Lizlin

And that was with insurance!
1:59 am
grannyrose

oh and forgot to tell you, physio gave the okay to fully weight-bear within the house. i am taking it slowly, and concentrating on walking correctly.
2:00 am
Lizlin

That's really good news :)
2:00 am
puglet

oh wow Rose! thats great
2:00 am
Lizlin

And sounds like you're doing it the right way - presumably the physio will watch how you're walking too.
2:01 am
puglet

how about the swelling? Has it returned
2:02 am
grannyrose

well with one crutch i have been told i am walking well. pugs, swelling negligible. i am spending as much time as i can on the bed. my feet still have wrinkles in the skin.....lol

rubyfoo

listening to your body is a learned art, pugs. I've taught B. how to do that but he grew up having to finish everything on his plate so was pretty fat when we married
3:26 am
grannyrose

yay, you ruby. hope you have a good one, dear
3:27 am
rubyfoo

he went from 190 to 130 bs, too little, but I give him as much as he'll eat
3:27 am
puglet

then again, Rose if you are eating healthy, that fills the body for a longer period than does junk food
3:27 am
rubyfoo

but junk food tastes so good!
3:27 am
grannyrose

interesting thought, pugs...using a smaller plate. but then i would be faced with a plateful...
3:28 am
rubyfoo

I think small portions on big plates works better
3:28 am
rubyfoo

and several small courses
3:29 am
rubyfoo

(of course, I eat whatever is around)
3:29 am
puglet

people that are from the old days (and not saying anyone is old) put were taught to eat everything on their plates and its ingrain in most of us
3:29 am
grannyrose

i think so also, ruby
3:29 am
rubyfoo

that's my sister's problem but by th time I was born, my mother didn't care what I ate, so I was lucky
3:30 am
grannyrose

yeah, and how many of us heard...think of the starving children in africa...
3:30 am
puglet

but Don fixes her plate and he eats more so puts more on her plate
3:30 am
rubyfoo

B.'s parents would make him sit at the table in front of unfinished things like (unseasoned) cauliflower until bedtime
3:30 am
puglet

yes Rose thats true--wasting food was a big no no
3:30 am
grannyrose

ugh ruby
3:30 am
o-o

I only have one serving ... but the buffet told me the idea was to put the food on my plate ... not take the whole pan.
3:31 am
rubyfoo

and his mother never gave him anything tasty
3:31 am
puglet

I had to do the same Ruby over homminies and milk---in school too--cant stand the smell or taste of milk
3:31 am
grannyrose

so now we all face a problem...no wastage of food, but enough to sustain life....you need an university degree in nutrition...
3:32 am
rubyfoo

my mother made me taste everything, but only eat what I wanted and I was able to take just what I would eat
3:32 am
rubyfoo

when I worked on B's South Beach diet, I learned a lot about nutrition
3:32 am
grannyrose

o-o...lol...and therein lies the problem, right?
3:33 am
puglet

I dont know why they would frown on that OO--would safe them washing exta dishes
3:33 am
rubyfoo

It was a life-style change for him and none of his previous wives cared about his food which is why he got fat in the first place
3:33 am
o-o

Yes, the buffet was quite unreasonable.
3:34 am
puglet

we didnt have alot of junk food growing up due to too little money to too many to feed
3:35 am
rubyfoo

I grew up in a candy store, so was lucky to have ice cream every day and special malted. So now, instead of sweets, I crave salty stuff
3:35 am
o-o

I am quite accomplished at poking food in my head.
3:36 am
puglet

me too OO and it shows too-lol
3:36 am
rubyfoo

really leaving now with 29 le4
3:36 am

3:54 am
puglet

3:54 am
rubyfoo

no, never toasty in this house, only the guestroom gets as warm as one would like
3:55 am
rubyfoo

and its bathroom
3:55 am
rubyfoo

this is a very poorly constructed house, basically uninsulated andno heat except for a few electric radiators and the fireplace in the living room
3:56 am
puglet

I dont have a fireplace but I enjoy a campfire when we can have one. Love sitting about it and enjoying friends
3:56 am
rubyfoo

it gets down to about 50F in the bedroom at night so we sleep under a mountain of blankets
3:56 am
rubyfoo

but you have heat! haha
3:57 am
rubyfoo

I have a ratty old fur coat that I put on top on my side of the bed
3:57 am
puglet

really miss the big fires we always had camping with the horses on rides with 50 or more around them
3:57 am
rubyfoo

the weight of it puts me to sleep
3:58 am
puglet

yes thank God we do have heat--lol
3:58 am
rubyfoo

riding with friends sounds idyllic!
3:58 am
rubyfoo

3:58 am
puglet

3:58 am
puglet

3:52 pm

kidney stones. seeing a doctor would ruin me financially.
3:53 pm

book!!! kidney stones, you need to see a doctor, either keyhole or if you leave it longer then a longer op and it will cost you more!

hi jilly
3:57 pm
Jillyjill

Gwen, have you looked into the Affordable Care Act website?
3:58 pm
Book Doctor Gwen

yep, and would you believe, my income is too low to qualify. no joke.
3:58 pm
lilliann

well, they do say that they can do that so i hope they have for you.my dad had them years ago and they didn't pass naturally and he ended up having a big op.my bairn's best friend's mam had them and she had key hole surgery over a week ago and was bad again and they ended up doing surgery to get rid of the last.i'm glad the pain has gone hin and hope is all well with you now.soft hugs and look after yourself.
3:58 pm
Jillyjill

Then you should be covered by Medicaid!!
3:59 pm
Book Doctor Gwen

yes, but medicaid is administered state by state, and michigan might not cover me either
4:00 pm
Book Doctor Gwen

thanks lilliann, i have had them before, and for me, they usually last only a day or two (the pain part, i mean, which is the part where they pop out of the kidney and start heading out)
4:00 pm
Jillyjill

Does Michigan have it's own ACA site?
4:00 pm
lilliann

how can your income be too low to qualify??that is so bloody stupid! (excuse my french)!!
4:01 pm
Book Doctor Gwen

i talked to one of the experts who advised me to apply in person for medicaid, in my own county. of course i have not done that yet, been sick. HA HA HA
4:02 pm
Book Doctor Gwen

affordable care act was designed to help people who are *in between* too poor to buy their own, and not poor enough to get medicaid. unfortunately, it is still up to consumer to get one or the other
4:02 pm
Jillyjill

Good advice, and hppe you can do it after you feel better.
4:03 pm
Book Doctor Gwen

single payer plan would be much better, but here in Murika we have an army of assholes standing in the way of it, all in the name of profit
4:07 pm
Jillyjill

Gwen, discussed this a year or so ago with Crossy. Seems Canada had a transitional program like ACA right before they transitioned to single payer system they have now.
4:07 pm

good evening everyone. reading back on the chog a bit. our health care is far from perfect, and believe me, we pay through the noise for it, but I can honestly say, I would not be standing here right now without it. our taxes of course are higher in many areas compared to the U.S to pay for this

lilliann

5:09 pm
MollyL

Yes TO, they are forecasting a big storm Wednesday into Thursday here.
5:09 pm

Is Godwin's law veritable?
5:23 pm
lilliann

i don't like godwins o-o so why bring it up?
5:24 pm
72 Temple Owl

same here. i am so edgy. they just restored power and our trees are very brittle. and it is going to get really cold.
5:24 pm
MollyL

Poke the other bloke sounds like a movie in the x-rated district : P
5:24 pm
72 Temple Owl

both ice and rain will be death kneels for many trees.
5:25 pm
72 Temple Owl

knells
5:25 pm
MollyL

It always makes me sad when the trees take the brunt of a bad storm
5:26 pm
72 Temple Owl

6-20 inches depending on the storm track.
5:26 pm
lilliann

i hope you stay safe TO and the trees stay up
5:26 pm
MollyL

I'm always a little wary of storms that are going to pick up Gulf moisture. They are usually the worst.
5:26 pm
lilliann

Molly...your mind not mine :)
5:27 pm
MollyL

I know L, your mind is pure as the driven snow
5:27 pm
phandmd

good evening
5:27 pm
72 Temple Owl

nor'easters are the pits
5:28 pm
lilliann

ofcourse it is:) i've told you before Molly, about time you believed it :P
5:28 pm
72 Temple Owl

and it is screwing up my social life big time as well. i cannot go visiting in MD to escape nor can a visitor come up here.
5:28 pm
MollyL

Well being Little Miss Prepared, I did all the essentials shopping today.
5:28 pm
lilliann

but molly as it happened i wasn't being crass when i said about the lance
5:29 pm
phandmd

so you have your bread, milk and toilet paper?
5:29 pm
72 Temple Owl

i did as well, or so i thought. need toothpaste of all things.
5:29 pm
72 Temple Owl

yepper. hi phan.
5:29 pm
MollyL

Milk and toilet paper. I make my own bread.
5:29 pm
phandmd

well, then you must have flour and yeast...
5:29 pm
72 Temple Owl

i have discovered lactaid milk. oh joy! but does anyone know why is keeps so long?
5:30 pm
lilliann

we had snow tonight, even though we shouldn't have done but luckily enough nowt like my fellow babblers
5:30 pm
72 Temple Owl

oh, and i need chocolate. then it will be ok.
5:30 pm
MollyL

Speaking of which, I need to check out Topper's forecast and see where this rates on The Bread-O-Meter and Carmaggeddon.
5:30 pm
phandmd

I actually need toothpaste too. I will get stuff tomorrow after my interview. If there is anything left that is.
5:30 pm
lilliann

hi phan:)
5:30 pm
72 Temple Owl

we are really being killed here. reminds of winter of '94.
5:31 pm
lilliann

TO, is your eye alot better now?
5:31 pm
72 Temple Owl

oh, molly?
5:31 pm
phandmd

Hi, Lilli
5:31 pm
72 Temple Owl

yes, lil, ty. i will go get measured for new glasses next week.
5:32 pm
lilliann

molly, do you make it by hand or bread maker?
5:32 pm
72 Temple Owl

i feel very bad for the south. they are not used to this and most have electric utilities.
5:32 pm
lilliann

i'm so glad to hear it TO
5:32 pm
phandmd

I myself prefer to make bread by hand. Haven't done so in such a long time. I think I will get supplies to do so during the snow storm...
5:32 pm
lilliann

i always think bread tastes better by hand
5:33 pm
72 Temple Owl

oh and i need to get gasoline tomorrow as well. but perhaps should try out the night driving and go tonight.
5:34 pm
MollyL

I use a break maker and yep, we're screwed. 8 on The Bread-O-Meter (10 being RUN FOR YOUR LIFE) Biggest storm since February 2010, which was Snowmageddon.
5:35 pm
72 Temple Owl

oh yes, well do i remember that winter. i ws in annapolis, they did not have anywhere to put it by then
5:35 pm
jaxx7

Can I, as a waterlogged Brit have my little moan about the weather? The British Isles are in danger of sinking under the Atlantic ocean and the North sea, there is so much flood water. A little snow would be a light relief. Our beloved leader came to the little town next to ours today, dashed to Somerset where they have been suffering floods since before Christmas to give him time to get to the Thames Valley where the Thames has flooded in the last two days but where 'middle english' voters live. What a surprise!
5:35 pm
lilliann

i had a breadmaker in the garage but i think my husband got rid of it like alot of things out of the garage last year without asking me as he thought they were taking space, but i'd put them there because our kitchen was being updated a few years ago and i can't reach the locks and he wouldn't bring it u
5:37 pm
lilliann

jax, where are you?
5:37 pm
stidgmere

You are quite entitled to moan jaxx7. The pictures on the news are just amazing. Too much water at one time! We here in the neather Northwest understand rain.
5:38 pm
stidgmere

Take care and know our prayers are with you.
5:39 pm
lilliann

Somerset has had it really bad and int he south east since Christmas.
5:40 pm
lilliann

jaxx, by the way, i wasn't moaning about the snow!!!
5:40 pm
jaxx7

I thought we did here in Devon but this is amazing! Springs are appearing where they have never been seen in living memory. At Dawlish the main, and only, railway line was dangling like a wooden jungle bridge and there are no trains getting through to Devon or Cornwall. My grandson aged 8 asked me today if the sea could overflow as well. perhaps we need a modern Noah,
5:42 pm
MollyL

That sounds scary Jaxx, I hope you get some relief
5:42 pm
jaxx7

I never thought you were. I should imagine you can get as sick of lower than usual temperatures as we do about 1 inch of rain a night. This isn't climate change it is Climate catastrophe.
5:44 pm
lilliann

i hope you and your family stay safe jax
5:45 pm
jaxx7

We live on the top of a hill and if we flood then God help the rest of the world. Thanks for the good wishes. Just pray for a few dry days without stormforce winds and tornados.
5:45 pm
lilliann

i was looking at the new today and apparently an 18" sinkhole opened on the M2 motorway today(luckily enough it was inbetween the barriers in the middle of the lanes
5:46 pm
lilliann

aye, we've had floods here where i live, but thats because i live near the top of a hill and the council doesn't clean the drains like we've all asked
5:47 pm
jaxx7

Lilliann, looking at the weather forecasts this evening I think you will be joining in the snow fest shortly.
5:47 pm
lilliann

i've just read your chat jax after i said we live on a hill :)
5:49 pm
jaxx7

Don't mention drains. new roads are metalled without them these days to save money or if there are drains from days past no-one bothers to clear them, again through lack of money.
5:50 pm
Soodle

The west & south coasts of Ireland have been pummelled relentlessly by storms & rain non stop for 12 weeks now.
5:50 pm
lilliann

we had snow this morning but it didn't settle because it was wet, then it snowed this evening and it wasn't supposed to and settled but we only have an inch
5:51 pm
72 Temple Owl

jaxx that is awful.
5:51 pm
phandmd

I will bbl for last 6 after dinner...
5:51 pm
lilliann

our drains are old and as we live on a top of a hil and on a sloped road we do tend to flood a bit.well, us anyway as our drive way is sloped so i can get to my house in my chair
5:52 pm
lilliann

hi soodle :)
5:52 pm
lilliann

aye, i think we are all sick of the rain
5:52 pm
jaxx7

It is the direction of the winds that have caused the problems. It was the South Coast of England that took the brunt of the storms but it is the sheer volume of rainwater that is compounding that damage now. No chance for workmen to do any repairs.
5:53 pm
lilliann

where do you live jax?
5:53 pm
Soodle

I'm looking out at snow now... About 4 inches so far. And it's freezing hard. Oh! Hi all. :-)
5:53 pm
jaxx7

The next thing will be droughts HaHa!
5:53 pm
lilliann

the winds haven't helped.we've had a lot of glae force winds up norht
5:55 pm
Soodle

My son works as a gas main layer in Kent. Every hole he tries to dig is completely waterlogged. He gets soaked 4 or 5 times a day. :-(
5:56 pm
lilliann

aye, we'll have them in the summer jax, and they'll tell us we can't use a hose pipe!!
5:56 pm
jaxx7

Don't you just love this country?
5:57 pm
lilliann

my brother lives in kent
5:57 pm
MollyL

How well are your roads plowed over there? Can you get out and drive when it snows, or are you stuck at home?
5:58 pm
lilliann


plowed???
5:58 pm
jaxx7

Snow ploughs what are they? We are lucky to get the main roads gritted when it snows.
5:58 pm
lilliann

we have grit put on occasionally!
5:59 pm
Soodle

Pshaw!! Plowed? If we are lucky, three elderly men stand on the back of a truck shovelling grit or sand onto the road!
5:59 pm
jaxx7

Not if you live on a side road
5:59 pm
lilliann

but saying that we don't have snow like Canada or place in the U.S
5:59 pm
jaxx7

usually they aim to hit the windscreems of the cars
6:00 pm
jaxx7

Wind screens even.
6:00 pm
Soodle

That's it, Jaxx! I was 'got' this evening!
6:00 pm
lilliann

lol, i thionk that is their main aim jax! 'how many windscreens can we crack today/tonight'
6:01 pm
jaxx7

Could be, perhaps they get a payment for evry car that needs a windscreen replacement through being covered by rock salt
6:02 pm
72 Temple Owl

i heard about the floods on the thames. awful,
6:02 pm
MollyL

Sounds wretched. Are there a lot of accidents?
6:02 pm
jaxx7

Not really because evrything in this country stops for snow. We just can't cope.
6:03 pm
lilliann

i live in front of a school jax, and when we had bad snow a few years ago and we couldn't move out of our houses and th eroads weren't cleared by the council and no-one could get to the school, as in techers especially they now grit the road more often but haven't done it now knowing we were in for snow!!
6:04 pm
MollyL

Well, better that people stay home and safe than get out there and wrap their car around a tree
6:04 pm
lilliann

my typing is getting crap as normal!!
6:04 pm
Soodle

Dozens, Molls. But over here most people are very unused to driving on snow & ice, so drive very slowly. Dozens of minor prangs, but thankfully not too many serious ones.
6:04 pm
lilliann

it is a local school molly
6:05 pm
MollyL

Oh trust me, most people here don't know how to drive in snow and ice either. They just think they do.
6:05 pm
72 Temple Owl

is snow a rare occurrence for uk?
6:05 pm
lilliann

so alot could walk
6:05 pm
jaxx7

I am 68 and I can remember living in Lancashire with no central heating so you got ice inside the windows yet life kept going. No snow days, and teachers lived nearer their places of employment then as well.
6:06 pm
lilliann

i don't drive in snow and will never do
6:07 pm
Soodle

Prolonged snowy conditions are rare enough here, TO. The last 'Big Snow' was in 2011.
6:07 pm
jaxx7

My husband won't either but, much to my grandson's disgust, snow doesn't fall that often in Devon It is a peninsular surrounded by seawater.
6:07 pm
lilliann

i must admit, some teachers live further afield but then why apply to a school that if the weather is bad, and you can't get too, then the school is closed and majority of the bairns live near to so can walk in the snow but can't go because the school is closed because not enough staff!
6:08 pm
72 Temple Owl

define "big"
6:08 pm
lilliann

but if you ask for holiday time after the school term, you can't have it!!
6:10 pm
Soodle

It snowed for about 2 weeks non stop, then froze, then snowed more. Probably minor compared to some places, but it brought everything to a standstill here.
6:10 pm
jaxx7

Today's kids walk? Wash your mouth out with soap. I live by a primary school and every day parents drive a mere 100 yards to bring children to school.
6:11 pm
MollyL

We never get snow that goes on that long. We get big storms but they are usually over with in 24 hours or less.
6:12 pm
Soodle

This cold damp weather is playing merry hell with my psoriasis. I'm almost 75% covered at the moment. Yuk
6:12 pm
jaxx7

Wow. Time to stop moaning and get to my bed. Goodnight all and may you all keep safe, dry and warm
6:13 pm
MollyL

I live near an elementary school and I am appalled at how many parents drive their kids to school. And our county provides bus service for any child that lives further than walking distance.
6:13 pm
Soodle

Bye Jax
6:13 pm
Soodle

Wile
6:13 pm
72 Temple Owl

you as well, jaxx
6:14 pm
lilliann

aye, i must admit that's true jax.as i've said i live infront of a comp and i'm sick of people parking infront of my house every day and they park infront of my gate so we can't get the car in or out, and there is parking up the street as in proper parking off the road and it has lanes
6:14 pm
72 Temple Owl

well we are to get 8-10" wed/thurs and then high winds, that is the problem.
6:14 pm
Soodle

Durn. Anything nice in the PB?
6:15 pm
lilliann

goodnight jaxx, sweet dreams and tc
6:15 pm
MollyL

I think the PB has become politically incorrect. No one seems to talk about it anymore.
6:16 pm
lilliann

wile...now i'm in the pb, having a snow/rain party with loads of drink and cake:)
6:16 pm
Soodle

That doesn't bother me, Molls. I'll wander in & forage for leftovers from the heady days of the cabana boys. :-)
6:16 pm
lilliann

...and we can all complain about the weather, whilst stuffing our faces and getting drunk or not!! :D
6:17 pm

6:26 pm
MollyL

I'll bring my own, I figured you wouldn't share with me.
6:26 pm
lilliann

mmmmm,i knew you wouldn't give me the 8 word!!
6:27 pm
72 Temple Owl

yeah, we're not giving it up for a common 4 letter word. were not that easy. :P
6:27 pm
lilliann

6:27 pm
lilliann

exactly TO :)
6:29 pm
72 Temple Owl

we may be cheap but were not easy.
6:29 pm
lilliann

i'd share my last penny if someone needed it!!
6:29 pm
MollyL

L, any kid who lives more than 1 mile from school is eligible for bus transportation.
6:30 pm
72 Temple Owl

in the suburbs where there are not sidewalks. it is not saft for them to walk.
6:30 pm
72 Temple Owl

and neighborhood schools in many areas are a thing of the past. not cost effective.
6:30 pm
MollyL

1.5 miles for middle school kids and 2 miles for high school kids. If closer in but walking conditions are hazardous (crossing busy streets, etc) they are eligible too.
6:31 pm
lilliann

really?that's not far. our's have to be 2 miles and over but we have different rules
6:31 pm
72 Temple Owl

moll, if it is not too personal, are you near balmer?
6:31 pm
MollyL

Where I live they can't keep up with the urban crawl. They build a new school and a year later they are putting portable classrooms up because the school is over crowded.
6:32 pm
MollyL

I'm about halfway in between DC and B-town
6:32 pm

72 Temple Owl

but sadly, blobs is closing end of march
6:33 pm
lilliann

our bairns who live in villages/towns over 2 miles get free school buses, but certain bairns only get the school buses if that school is their nearest.our bairn lives infront of a school which we didn't choose so we have to pay bus fare for a normal bus to school
6:33 pm
phandmd

My daughter lives in Towson. (that's where she is going to school)
6:33 pm

Hmm, it seems someone is not getting enough attention at home : D

no, just being silly.
6:34 pm

Towson is a great town and a great school.

6:40 pm
72 Temple Owl

i wondered what the big building on the corner acrossfrom the shopping ctr where mom's is is going to be...looked liked apts or condos
6:40 pm

Hmm, I thought Blob's was in Jessup. Is it in Odenton?

7:50 pm
lilliann

sorry, i'm watching children's emergeny programme thati recorded and some of it brings back memories of the bairn when she was in hospital
7:51 pm
lilliann

13 here pen.what do you want?
7:51 pm
MollyL

Damn L, find something cheerier on TV
7:51 pm
uusue2

ah, that must be hard, lilli!
7:52 pm

7:52 pm
lilliann

Molly, when i hear a helicoper over our house or a siren, whether it be apolice car or ambulance, i get tearful...how bad's that, even now i'm blurry eyed and can't see the keyboard
7:52 pm
uusue2

al + nibble
7:53 pm
MollyL

That is the post traumatic stuff bleeding through L. It's hard to get past it.
7:53 pm

7:56 pm
uusue2

I am good, lilli! Had some knee trouble last week but it seems to have fixed itself.
7:56 pm
uusue2

And Frank is fine although he is learning that he can't eat nuts or popcorn (bad for Crohn's which he was diagnosed with at the same time they found the cancer)
7:57 pm
lilliann

i don't think i'll ever forget the sounds,and look of her face Molly!
7:57 pm
lilliann

my next uestion, was how is Frank,but i wanted to ask how you were first:)
7:57 pm
uusue2

that must have been awful, lilli, glad she has recovered!!
7:59 pm
MollyL

That is why watching shows like that is probably not the best idea L. It's a trigger for painful memories.
7:59 pm
lilliann

is he in remission sue?
7:59 pm
uusue2

The cancer is gone, as far as anyone can tell - no sign of it on scans. He'll have to keep being checked, though, as it could still pop up again.
8:01 pm
dan2bit

gl6 clue, anybody?
8:01 pm
uusue2

a quick look, dan
8:02 pm

oh duh fish me

8:06 pm
lilliann

molly, the sounds of sirens and helicopters will always remind me but atleast i have my daughter, so i have to think positive and not the negative eh?it still stuff
8:07 pm
lilliann

stuff??tough :)
8:07 pm
MollyL

Now, now, we are none of us perfect. Otherwise we would finish these grids in 20 minutes and never hang around to chat. : D
8:08 pm
dan2bit

firewords here too! tx uu and Moll and all cluers
8:08 pm
MollyL

L the deal with post traumatic issues is that the less you expose yourself to trigger things, the less it will fester.
8:09 pm
lilliann

wtg dan!!
8:09 pm
MollyL

Night 2Bit, don't you eat that yellow snow
8:09 pm
uusue2

yay dan!
8:13 pm
lilliann

then i need to stop seeing the national news, reading newspapers, looking at news on the computor because there is always a bairn hurt in some way or another and to be quite honest, whether a bairn is hurt or not, it the souinds of sirens helicopters...helicopter sounds are the worst!!
8:15 pm
uusue2

we had a shooting on campus here 6 years ago - there were a lot of helicopters (mostly from news organizations) - since then several of my friends have gotten pretty freaked out when helicopters go over
8:15 pm
lilliann

and ambulances and police cars and i can't stop them from coming near our village
8:16 pm
lilliann

i'm sorry to hear that Sue..about the shooting
8:18 pm
o-o

Some vets with trauma issues will do things like hide under tables when planes pass over ... or, as a friend of mine did, attack a cuckoo clock.
8:19 pm
o-o

Many professionals believe the traumatized must relive the trauma to desensitize it.
8:20 pm
Rows

hi everyone
8:20 pm
lilliann

Sue,i can understand why they get freaked out with all the different noises going on
8:20 pm
Rows

small grid today!
8:21 pm
uusue2

hi rows!
8:22 pm
uusue2

it's interesting, lilli, the students who were here then are all gone, but the faculty and staff remember it well...
8:23 pm
lilliann

i re-live it every day when a sound or something i see on the news reminds me o-o and i don't htink i'll ever forget, the same as the vets, they'll never forget fully
8:23 pm
o-o

Many, too, use amnesia that creates gaps in memory to defend themselves from the horror.
8:25 pm
o-o

The concept is that with professional help the traumatized might be able to understand that what then ... I am safe now.
8:26 pm
lilliann

it's not something they will forget fully, sadly sue.we all put it to one side but we all remember bad times occasionally or all the time...depending on the type of person we are and how bad the times were
8:26 pm
uusue2

((((lilli))))
8:27 pm
o-o

Getting shot at does not make being in a war zone glamorous
8:29 pm
lilliann

why did you say thato-o?
8:29 pm
o-o

why do you ask?
8:29 pm
lilliann

i understand after reading your earlier post
8:32 pm
Rows

hi sue, sorry, i stepped away for a second
8:33 pm
lilliann

you said about getting shot at being in war glamouress and then i rememered seeing your post earlier about vets!
8:33 pm
lilliann

hi rows
8:33 pm
Rows

hey lilli
8:33 pm

9:10 pm
lilliann

9:37 pm

9:38 pm
lilliann

9:38 pm
Nef

sorry. I'm hitting the "caps" button a lot now too
9:38 pm
lilliann

don't worry about it hin
9:38 pm
penquis

another reason i am making the scarf longer is that my second skein of yarn is quite different in color than the first....both are multi-colored so it's not too bad, but they are definitely different....
9:40 pm
Nef

Just got home from a Valentines dinner with DH's men's group. I don't drink; but I sure seem to be typing like I did!
9:40 pm
lilliann

that's good to have different colours Pen ,plus some people won't notice. when i knit which isn't often as i'm crap i always either use wools with different colurs in or i add colours
9:40 pm
Nef

How long is your scarf, pen?
9:41 pm
lilliann

did you have a good time Nef?
9:41 pm
penquis

it's about 5 feet now...i am adding maybe four inches...
9:41 pm

We did have a good time, lil. But it was in a cold hall and even though I dressed warm (cami, silk mock tee, and tunic top with slacks and knee highs) I am still trying to thaw out.
9:44 pm
lilliann

hi harp :)
9:46 pm
lilliann

glad you had a great time nef, maybe next time wear more clothes :)
9:46 pm
lilliann

maybe a cardi?
9:46 pm
Nef

pen, I once had a really sweet patient who loved to knit and made and sold her handiwork. I needed a scarf and mittens; so I asked her to make a LONG scarf and 2 pairs of matching mittens. She took me literally: I ended up with a 14 foot scarf with 2 pr. matching mittens! :-)
9:47 pm
Nef

(A friend cut the scarf in half and made 2 out of that 1; I wore them and the mittens for a good 25 years!
9:47 pm
lilliann

lol Nef, but you could have tripled the gloves over and had really warm hands :)
9:48 pm
lilliann

sorry misread, i thought you had 14 foot mittens too :)
9:48 pm
lilliann

my misreading has already got myself in trouble tonight, sadly :(
9:49 pm
Nef

Oh, I had asked for longer mittens too; so they had 5 or 6 inch cuffs so they were quite warm. I loved them!
