					3:26 am

					hi puglet 
				 
							
					3:26 am
					zoozzoom
					
					Hello, Scouser!
				 
							
					3:26 am
					scouser
					
					zooz did you avoid the floods? 
				 
							
					3:27 am
					zoozzoom
					
					Lots of flooding on the island but i am ok here...thank goodness....How about yourself?
				 
							
					3:27 am
					puglet
					
					I have a small camping area and most every week end during the nice weather my girlfriend and her hubby comes and we do things together
				 
							
					3:28 am
					scouser
					
					all well here. there were spectacular waves in the Mersey though
				 
							
					3:28 am
					zoozzoom
					
					That sounds wonderful, Pugs...would love to sit round a camp fire with friends!
				 
							
					3:28 am
					scouser
					
					whereabouts are you pugs? 
				 
							
					3:29 am
					zoozzoom
					
					Yes i can imagine, Scouser, hope you took some photos?
				 
							
					3:29 am
					puglet
					
					you'de be welcome to join anytine you want Zoom
				 
							
					3:29 am
					puglet
					
					Iam in the mid-west of Indiana
				 
							
					3:29 am
					zoozzoom
					
					Aww thanks, Pugs :-)
				 
							
					3:30 am
					scouser
					
					I didn't as on those windy days little me would have been blown off my feet 
				 
							
					3:30 am
					zoozzoom
					
					Ye i too get blown about when any big winds blow as i am thin as a rake...lol
				 
							
					3:31 am
					zoozzoom
					
					ye = yes
				 
							
					3:32 am
					scouser
					
					zoo "stand sideways and get marked absent"? 
				 
							
					3:33 am
					zoozzoom
					
					hahahahah you have seen me then..lol
				 
							
					3:34 am
					scouser
					
					no I haven't.  .. 
				 
							
					3:35 am
					zoozzoom
					
					Thats because i was stood sideways :-)
				 
							
					3:35 am
					scouser
					
					I just reminded myself of your wonderful "blessed are those who can laugh at themselves..... " on your profile. I have that statement pinned on the wall here. 
				 
							
							
					3:36 am
					scouser
					
					got to get the apostrophes correct - no greengrocer's here
				 
							
					3:37 am
					zoozzoom
					
					I am not very good at apostrophes i admit..but i do try....but find it very hard...i even have books on the subject, but i tend to get lost after a while..lol
				 
							
					3:37 am
					puglet
					
					brb--coffee refill needed
				 
							
					3:39 am
					zoozzoom
					
					Don't forget the biscuits, Pugs :-)
				 
							
					3:40 am
					scouser
					
					the only real problem with apostrophe is in "it's" and "its" where the latter is a possessive without the ap** and the first one is for a missing letter i and should never appear in any technical or formal writing.  Otherwise, possessives only.  
				 
							
					3:41 am
					scouser
					
					by the way, what are you going to have in the PB, zoom?
				 
							
					3:42 am
					zoozzoom
					
					I am sure i am fine with that one.It's the more advanced ones i struggle with remembering.
				 
							
					3:43 am
					zoozzoom
					
					Let me think........I hope to find in the PB....some pan au chocolat..i do like those :-)
				 
							
					3:44 am
					scouser
					
					OK  buns it is then
				 
							
							
					3:50 am
					puglet
					
					sorry no bisquits but you are welcome to some toast with the coffee or tea, I believe is your choice of drink if I remember right
				 
							
					3:51 am
					zoozzoom
					
					Oh yes i do like a cup of tea :-)
				 
							
					3:52 am
					zoozzoom
					
					Do you drink filter coffee, Pugs? Or is it instant.
				 
							
					3:53 am
					puglet
					
					instant Zoom
				 
							
					3:54 am
					zoozzoom
					
					I must confess i am not keen on instant..but i do not drink coffee often to be honest.
				 
							
					3:55 am
					puglet
					
					with having rusty in our water a coffeepot does not last long here
				 
							
					3:55 am
					zoozzoom
					
					You have rust in your water?
				 
							
					3:57 am
					puglet
					
					I drink tea now and then---My sister is the tea drinker here. She dont ask for much and I make sure to keep her tea shelf full of different flavors--which is about fifty I think--lol
				 
							
					3:57 am
					puglet
					
					yes --I have well water
				 
							
					3:58 am
					zoozzoom
					
					Oh my, Pugs, Have thought about buying a water filter jug..that would take the nasty stuff out of the water?
				 
							
					3:59 am
					zoozzoom
					
					Now that is a lot of different teas..i take it most of them are herbal teas?
				 
							
					4:01 am
					puglet
					
					Ive been here so long Iam use to it-----------------Some are---whatever is new on the shelf at the market I get for her. She likes all those flavored teas. Iam not crazy about most of them and I dont like flavored coffees either. 
				 
							
					4:03 am
					puglet
					
					If I drink a cup of tea, I usually drink one called pearl black tea---and one called carmel vanilla
				 
							
					4:03 am
					zoozzoom
					
					No i am not keen on flavoured teas or herbal teas either.And i do not have anything but so called normal flavoured coffee..lol
				 
							
					4:05 am
					zoozzoom
					
					Years ago i would have to have a tea strainer to make sure there was no no tea leafs in the bottom of the cup...now i just have the tea bags which they consist of just tea dust..lol
				 
							
					4:06 am
					puglet
					
					thats all we have too, is just the bag tea
				 
							
					4:06 am
					zoozzoom
					
					Twinings are supposed to be a good brand for tea.
				 
							
					4:06 am
					puglet
					
					on the news just now a whole family of 6 parished in a housefire---so sad
				 
							
					4:07 am
					zoozzoom
					
					Oh that is sad news, Pugs. Is that near you?
				 
							
					4:08 am
					puglet
					
					I dont know that Ive seen that brand here--will have to look next time---and buy some if so, so that if you come to camp then you can enjoy while sitting at the campfire
				 
							
					4:08 am
					zoozzoom
					
					And PB for me for the NE4
				 
							
					4:09 am
					puglet
					
					in the capital city, which is about fifty miles or so from me---but still very sad
				 
							
					4:09 am
					zoozzoom
					
					With some toasted marshmallows :-)
				 
							
					4:09 am
					puglet
					
					of couse Zoom, those giant ones at that--lol
				 
							
					4:11 am
					zoozzoom
					
					Wonder what songs we would all sing...maybe...lets think....errm...smoke gets in your eyes..lol
				 
							
					4:11 am
					puglet
					
					when I use to camp with my horses, we would got to missourii  for a 2 week stay and some lady there made a hot apple cider drink with rum and cin. sticks--was very good
				 
							
					4:12 am
					zoozzoom
					
					That sounds like a nice toddy!
				 
							
					4:12 am
					puglet
					
					you can sing whatever floats your boat--lol
				 
							
					4:12 am
					zoozzoom
					
					Not heard that song, Pugs...Teehee!
				 
							
					4:12 am
					puglet
					
					Iam not keen on apple cider but it was good
				 
							
					4:13 am
					zoozzoom
					
					I love horses...but have never ridden one.
				 
							
					4:13 am
					puglet
					
					well I guess you will have to become a song writter then
				 
							
					4:15 am
					puglet
					
					I loved camping with them in missiouri---so much fun---we paid a up front fee there and all the eats were free and so on----and on sunday we would have a open church service up beside the hills
				 
							
					4:18 am
					zoozzoom
					
					I was watching this program a long time ago and it was showing you how to make a horse like you so you can stroke it...And this man goes into the field with these kind of wild horses and then turns his back on them..and they start to come forward..and you have to keep your back turned on them..and eventually the horse takes to you..not sure how it works..but i did try it on some horses in the fields near here and it works!
				 
							
					4:19 am
					zoozzoom
					
					Now when i go to the field the horse comes trotting over...i give the horse some carrots as a treat..lol
				 
							
					4:19 am
					puglet
					
					sounds like the horse whisper----why havent you ever went riding Zoom
				 
							
					4:20 am
					zoozzoom
					
					never taken the time to try..i used to work a lot with two jobs plus out with friends just never got round to it..lol
				 
							
					4:20 am
					puglet
					
					you must have a trusting nature Zoom that they pick up on from you---thats really good
				 
							
					4:21 am
					puglet
					
					well its never too late but prepare to be sore for a while--lol
				 
							
					4:21 am
					zoozzoom
					
					I am a very friendly person...hate to think i have upset anyone..i am rather sensitive i suppose.
				 
							
					4:22 am
					zoozzoom
					
					Yes lol i have seen many people on horse bobbong up and down..and i used to tthink that must hurt after a while..lol
				 
							
					4:22 am
					puglet
					
					do people there ride mostly english or we7-44
				 
							
					4:23 am
					puglet
					
					well you arnt suppose to bob but go with the flow-lol
				 
							
					4:23 am
					zoozzoom
					
					not sure what the difference is to be honest..but here always legs apart over the horse on saddle hands on rein..horse hat and other gear.
				 
							
					4:24 am
					zoozzoom
					
					Nah these people are bobbing up and down like a fiddlers elbow...they do not know how to ride a horse then..lol
				 
							
					4:24 am
					puglet
					
					english saddles have no horn--we7 is cowboy type saddles
				 
							
					4:25 am
					zoozzoom
					
					Oh i see..as far as i can tell there is no horn or lump on the end of the saddle.
				 
							
					4:25 am
					puglet
					
					riding english you do post and that is going up and down with the rhymn of the horse
				 
							
					4:25 am
					zoozzoom
					
					And they do not shout out Yeeha either..lol
				 
							
					4:26 am
					puglet
					
					Ive never ridden english but just w7
				 
							
							
					4:26 am
					scouser
					
					I guess if you are going to spend all day on the horse then trotting with bouncing is out of the question.  
				 
							
					4:27 am
					puglet
					
					I think you should try it sometime
				 
							
					4:27 am
					o-o
					
					riding a horse without a trumpet is sensible 
				 
							
					4:27 am
					zoozzoom
					
					OK so what makes a difference with the riding styles?
				 
							
					4:27 am
					puglet
					
					morning OO
				 
							
					4:27 am
					zoozzoom
					
					LOL hello, o-o :-)
				 
							
					4:27 am
					scouser
					
					hello o-o
				 
							
					4:28 am
					puglet
					
					well the w7 saddle has a horn in front of you to hold on too and the english saddle is rather flat
				 
							
					4:29 am
					zoozzoom
					
					I see shows what i know..i thought you just held onto the reins...i can see i would be no good on a horse..lol
				 
							
					4:29 am
					puglet
					
					but as you learn to ride you dont need to use the horn---the horn was actualy put on there for roping purposes
				 
							
					4:29 am
					zoozzoom
					
					Ah that would make sense.
				 
							
					4:30 am
					scouser
					
					hello o-o I just took a look at your profile - now that really is on the other side of the world to here.  You need a very large helloooooooooooooooo ! 
				 
							
					4:30 am
					puglet
					
					you have to learn Zoom and as you do, thats all you need is the reins---but at first ballance is needed to work on
				 
							
					4:31 am
					puglet
					
					and its not to late for you to learn at all and I bet you would do just fine
				 
							
					4:32 am
					scouser
					
					I should think the horse would prefer lightweight riders too
				 
							
					4:32 am
					zoozzoom
					
					Yes agreed..but i would have to pay for it and alas i am a bit short on funds...now i had to buy a new washing machine.
				 
							
					4:32 am
					zoozzoom
					
					hehehe thanks, Scouser :-)
				 
							
					4:33 am
					scouser
					
					in UK riding is an expensive hobby and owning a horse is more expensive than owning a car
				 
							
					4:33 am
					zoozzoom
					
					I do love going to the fields though and patting the horses and saying hello bla bla blah...but it is nice.
				 
							
					4:33 am
					puglet
					
					Zoom, maybe someone there would like for you to exercise their horses and it wouldnt cost you anything
				 
							
					4:34 am
					scouser
					
					are you there  o-o ??
				 
							
					4:34 am
					zoozzoom
					
					Very expensive, Scouser.
				 
							
					4:34 am
					puglet
					
					yes their upkeep isnt cheap
				 
							
					4:35 am
					zoozzoom
					
					When the warmer weather arrives i might pluck up the courage and ask.
				 
							
					4:36 am
					puglet
					
					since I live among the amish--there is horses every where and they farm here with them too
				 
							
					4:37 am
					scouser
					
					pugs are the Amish still in an earlier century, or can they use the web etc? 
				 
							
					4:37 am
					puglet
					
					I love watching the workhorses do their stuff--they are so big and powerful
				 
							
					4:38 am
					puglet
					
					none have electric in their homes here and modern things are a no no
				 
							
					4:38 am
					scouser
					
					zooz  you do that - no harm in asking 
				 
							
					4:40 am
					zoozzoom
					
					Have seen a program on the amish and the youger ones start to rebel.They are then cast out of the group and even their parents want nothing to do with them.
				 
							
					4:40 am
					scouser
					
					I suppose the store and the bank must be their interface with the "outside world".?

					Interesting that casting out is the same remedy for bad behaviour in both cultures - we should all follow the western pacific idea of a "Long House" to which teenagers are banished during their awkward years.

					Metaphorical thinking is at the heart of the human experience. When we encounter something new and unfamiliar—or try to make sense out of something that is not well understood—we often benefit from relating it to something we know well. And when great writers or thinkers have attempted to describe or explain something in a compelling or unforgettable way, their chief tool has been metaphorical phrasing. It is the key to elevating human language from the prosaic to the poetic. William Cullen Bryant expressed it well (and, of course, he phrased it metaphorically):
“Eloquence is the poetry of prose.†

					Hi Liz. How has Wednesday been?
				 
							
					5:42 am
					Lizlin
					
					Wednesday was beautiful here - warm sunny day. Hope it'll be the same for you!
				 
							
					5:43 am
					Scrabbler
					
					Looks like we got some fresh snow. Everything is white. It's beautiful.
				 
							
					5:44 am
					Lizlin
					
					I remember snow - beautiful when it falls, slushy and icy after that! A pain to drive in! LOL!
				 
							
					5:44 am
					Scrabbler
					
					Caution is needed whn driving. And extra time.
				 
							
					5:45 am
					Lizlin
					
					True - in England they were never prepared for snow, so my last 2 experiences were driving home from work. A 40 minute journey took 6 hours and I had to abandon my car and walk the last mile!
				 
							
					5:46 am
					Scrabbler
					
					Oh, no!
				 
							
					5:47 am
					Lizlin
					
					Then the next year the same journey took about 5 hours but at least i got all the way home! 
				 
							
					5:47 am
					Lizlin
					
					Then there are the maniacs that decide to drive on the pavement in order to get wherever a bit faster!
				 
							
					5:47 am
					Scrabbler
					
					I live in "snow country", across the valley is a ski resort, so we are always prepared.
				 
							
					5:47 am
					Lizlin
					
					because the traffic's at a standstill! No, can't say I miss snow!
				 
							
					5:48 am
					Lizlin
					
					I'm sure that it's very manageable generally in large areas of the USA and Canada! Across Europe too!
				 
							
					5:48 am
					Scrabbler
					
					I have been cross-country skiing and snowshoeing all winter, 3-4 times weekly, and love it. I am not ready for spring yet.
				 
							
					5:49 am
					Lizlin
					
					Sounds like fun! Occasionally!!!!
				 
							
					5:49 am
					Scrabbler
					
					I am always sad when each season ends. 
				 
							
					5:50 am
					Lizlin
					
					Sadly there's not much difference between seasons here. However, in spring the trees have some beautiful blossom on them - reds, yellows, purples etc. but never a really fresh spring green.
				 
							
					5:51 am
					Scrabbler
					
					I love mid-spring, when the trees are flowering and the leaves are emerging. 
				 
							
					5:52 am
					Lizlin
					
					In England I loved Spring and Autumn - for the colours.
				 
							
					5:53 am
					Lizlin
					
					Though autumn didn't match the US E. coast colours that I've seen photographed.
				 
							
					5:53 am
					Scrabbler
					
					We are fortunate to have 4 distinct and wonderful seasons here. I don't like the transition from winter to spring and autumn to winter though. Outdoor activities are difficult to do in between seasons when it is cold and rainy.
				 
							
					5:53 am
					Scrabbler
					
					We have stunning colors in autumn.
				 
							
					5:54 am
					Scrabbler
					
					*ggrrrrrrrrr* Here comes the town snowplow. You can hear it growling before it passes.
				 
							
					5:54 am
					Lizlin
					
					Still for all that, i don't regret the move here - except perhaps on the few very humid evenings we get here in summer.
				 
							
					5:54 am
					Scrabbler
					
					You have your own beauty there.
				 
							
					5:55 am
					Lizlin
					
					Sure do - the sea was a wonderful turquoise today (enhanced by polarised sun glasses!)
				 
							
							
					5:56 am
					Lizlin
					
					If you google "Kirra Beach" images, you'll get an idea of why I love it here.

					11:19 am

					11:20 am
					Judi
					
					S'okay, Ruby.  Lasagna always tastes better the 2nd day.
				 
							
					11:20 am
					MollyL
					
					Ruby, it has to be better than that underdone quail you had the other day. Urp. 
				 
							
					11:21 am
					rubyfoo
					
					a mewt point, Molly.  My mother made the best-ever lasagna and I tried to emulate hers.
				 
							
					11:22 am
					MollyL
					
					Let me guess, you didn't have the right meat to go in it. 
				 
							
					11:22 am
					Judi
					
					What did hubby think of the lasagna, Ruby?
				 
							
					11:22 am
					Judi
					
					And, is it LaSagna or LeSagna in France?
				 
							
					11:22 am
					rubyfoo
					
					I had all the right ingredients, but it wasn''t as good as hers
				 
							
					11:23 am
					rubyfoo
					
					he loved it but I think his sense of tast is gone from too many years of super-spicy food
				 
							
					11:23 am
					MollyL
					
					I'm with Judi, lasagna is always better the next day. I make mine a day ahead. 
				 
							
					11:23 am
					rubyfoo
					
					it's lasagna here, made with béchamel sauce
				 
							
							
					11:24 am
					rubyfoo
					
					I hope you're right because I made a huge amount
				 
							
					11:24 am
					Judi
					
					Bechamel can be tricky.  As long as it was edible, I'd count it as a win.
				 
							
					11:24 am
					MollyL
					
					Wait, wait, your mother made lasagna with béchamel sauce?
				 
							
					11:24 am
					rubyfoo
					
					this part of France used to be Italian, but they've forgotten how to cook
				 
							
					11:25 am
					rubyfoo
					
					no no, the Fr make it with béchamel and it's disgusting
				 
							
					11:26 am
					Judi
					
					You could cut the leftovers into cubes, dredge them, deep fry them and then dip them in marinara.  Everything is better deep fried.  So I'm told.
				 
							
					11:27 am
					Judi
					
					Like an arancini, only with lasagna.

					Oh my God, I'm trying to imagine all the fat and cholesterol in deep fried lasagna : O
				 
							
					11:31 am
					Judi
					
					I know, Molls.  My arteries are cringing at the thought.  Although, at the Olive Gardens around here, they serve something similar.  I have had deep fried mac & cheese.  I was great, but OMG... talk about heart attack on a plate.
				 
							
					11:33 am

					Yes, Dianne - it's awesome, but so so fattening.
				 
							
					11:35 am

					local food is pretentious, expensive and crappy.  I miss the food in the US

					11:38 am

					Did you use them in your lasagna?
				 
							
					11:38 am
					MollyL
					
					Judi, if you feel the Earth rumbling tonight, it's because Phan is cooking. 
				 
							
					11:38 am
					rubyfoo
					
					|It's the restaurants that are poor and I don't feel like doing elaborate cooking like I used to
				 
							
					11:39 am
					rubyfoo
					
					Yes, I used them in the meat sauce.
				 
							
					11:39 am

					and you can't get decent seafood

					Hee hee.  You go, Phan!  Rock our world!

					6:09 pm

					7:16 pm
					herinfernallady
					
					HOwdy. I have a really odd question. I am looking at making whoopie pies and was wondering if there was anyone that may have a recipe they like to use and wouldn't mind linking me too.
				 
							
					7:16 pm
					herinfernallady
					
					please
				 
							
					7:17 pm
					wvteach
					
					don't know anything about whoopie pies - did you try googling - whoopie pie recipe
				 
							
					7:17 pm
					wvteach
					
					gert most of my recipes on  line now
				 
							
					7:18 pm
					herinfernallady
					
					I did but I was just wondering if there was anyone that had a fav online
				 
							
					7:18 pm
					herinfernallady
					
					I was actually thinking normal cake batter
				 
							
					7:19 pm
					wvteach
					
					what are the basis for whoopie pies
				 
							
					7:19 pm
					herinfernallady
					
					Cake and icing Like a cookie but cake like
				 
							
					7:21 pm
					herinfernallady
					
					it is an old use of too much cake batter but not enough for a whole cake
				 
							
					7:22 pm
					wvteach
					
					just looked it up - the recipe at "allrecipe.com" called for using a cake mix batter
				 
							
					7:23 pm
					herinfernallady
					
					I do not like making packet cake mix. I felt slightly like making food
				 
							
					7:26 pm
					herinfernallady
					
					How are you going WV?
				 
							
					7:28 pm
					wvteach
					
					having a good day - snowy morning so music practice was cncelled so got caught up on things and made some soup (which was dinner) and thenwas with grandkids this afternoonafternoon
				 
							
							
					7:28 pm
					herinfernallady
					
					I spent about 4 hours on trains and buses yesterday. Very tired today
				 
							
					7:29 pm
					wvteach
					
					where were you going?
				 
							
					7:29 pm
					herinfernallady
					
					To an appointment and back. I don't drive. I had to wait in total an hour for 2 trains.
				 
							
					7:30 pm
					wvteach
					
					no wonder you were tired out
				 
							
					7:30 pm
					herinfernallady
					
					I wouldn't have minded if i missed the train by a proper time but both times was by under 2 min
				 
							
					7:31 pm
					wvteach
					
					how frustrating -
				 
							
					7:31 pm
					herinfernallady
					
					If I was naughty I could have ducked under the closing boom gate but I prefer to miss a train than get squished
				 
							
					7:32 pm
					wvteach
					
					public buses here don;t go many places and I really count on having the car
				 
							
					7:33 pm
					herinfernallady
					
					I am lucky to have a good network of buses and trains. It is this one appointment every few weeks that is on a line that runs every 30min. Most lines are 15 min
				 
							
					7:33 pm
					wvteach
					
					too small of a town to have any trains
				 
							
					7:36 pm
					wvteach
					
					my husband walks most everywhere but my knees have enough arthritis that I don't get very far going up and down hills
				 
							
					7:36 pm

					7:37 pm
					wvteach
					
					i grew up in a large city with lots of buses and trains available
				 
							
					7:38 pm
					herinfernallady
					
					This train line has only one track where as the other have 2 or more in sections so it has a 30min turn around. 
				 
							
					7:40 pm
					wvteach
					
					had a good contra dance this past weekend at our music festival - thought of you TO - and wondered if you did contra dancing
				 
							
					7:42 pm
					72 Temple Owl
					
					i don't , teach. but many of the other dancers do.  it is quite strenuous.
				 
							
					7:45 pm
					wvteach
					
					had a successful music festival this past weekend and the weather even cooperated
				 
							
					7:45 pm
					72 Temple Owl
					
					that is nice.  did you play?
				 
							
							
					7:46 pm
					wvteach
					
					yes - did a little bit of everything - my husband and I coordinate the festival - i performed twice on stage and taught two workshops - one on lap dulcimer and the other on bowed psaltery
				 
							
					7:47 pm
					wvteach
					
					you can check out the fewstival at gwmf.org

					7:49 pm
					72 Temple Owl
					
					yay, welk!
				 
							
					7:51 pm
					wvteach
					
					my husband has lots of videos but none on the web site and none of his pictures from this year are there yet - there are some clips on youtube
				 
							
					7:51 pm
					72 Temple Owl
					
					you play mtn dulimer, correct?
				 
							
					7:52 pm
					wvteach
					
					yes, i playt the mountain dulcimer and also am learning to play the bowed psaltery
				 
							
					7:52 pm
					72 Temple Owl
					
					ooh, i wish the timiing was better. i would have loed this!
				 
							
					7:53 pm
					wvteach
					
					our festival is always the last full weekend in February - this was the 36th year
				 
							
					7:54 pm
					wvteach
					
					we gret about 200 people on Friday and 400 - 500 on Saturday
				 
							
					7:54 pm
					72 Temple Owl
					
					well,i mean weather wise. but this year, there was really no good time
				 
							
					7:55 pm
					wvteach
					
					we do a smaller festival in June - the first weekend in June - PattyFest
				 
							
					7:55 pm
					72 Temple Owl
					
					wow that is one huge hammered dulcimer in that photo
				 
							
					7:56 pm
					wvteach
					
					the festival is in honor / memory of Patty Looman who played the hammered dulcimer
				 
							
					7:56 pm
					wvteach
					
					Patty was also my teacher on the mountain dulcimer
				 
							
					7:57 pm
					72 Temple Owl
					
					teach, do you dance as well?
				 
							
					7:57 pm

					7:57 pm
					wvteach
					
					i used to many years ago - but now have too much arthritis in my knees - need to get them both replaced
				 
							
					7:58 pm
					72 Temple Owl
					
					oh wow. i just read about a new treatment, injections to restore the cushioning 
				 
							
					8:00 pm
					wvteach
					
					the artritis has worn away the joint too much and bones are close to rubbing - most injections are cortisone based and, being diabetic, can't tolerate cortisone
				 
							
					8:01 pm
					wvteach
					
					have braces thast actually force the bones apart - but I don't like wearing the braces
				 
							
					8:02 pm
					72 Temple Owl
					
					i see. this one was not that, i do recall, but an acutal replacement for the cartilage.  at least it did not state it was steroid.
				 
							
					8:02 pm
					72 Temple Owl
					
					being diabetic complicates everything.
				 
							
					8:03 pm
					wvteach
					
					will have to check it out - just heard about a "pain block" that speeds up recovery - my biggest fear is the lengthy recovery - I can never find the time to give up doing things
				 
							
					8:04 pm
					uusue2
					
					I've had both my knees replaced, wv, would recommend not doing them at the same time
				 
							
					8:05 pm
					uusue2
					
					for my first I was off work for about 8 weeks; for the second they used a newer technique and I was back after 4 weeks
				 
							
					8:05 pm
					72 Temple Owl
					
					hi sue
				 
							
					8:05 pm
					wvteach
					
					the surgeon that i have gone to will not do the two at the same time - but my sister had both done at the same time because thsat is what her surgeon recommended
				 
							
							
					8:07 pm
					uusue2
					
					the rehab is not fun but is necessary for full recovery - my knees are both fine now
				 
							
					8:07 pm
					herinfernallady
					
					Hi Sue
				 
							
							
					8:08 pm
					wvteach
					
					watched while my sister was going through it
				 
							
					8:09 pm
