12:22 am

rururocks

twine is that jb?

12:22 am

rururocks

we aren't trying to string you along

12:23 am

jbp

hard to follow the thread sometimes

12:23 am

melonheadjujube

Here's my 7s: ch, er, lyx2, re, and sh. What am I missing?

12:23 am

rururocks

are you trying to needle us?

12:23 am

jbp

you keep me in stitches, that's for sure

12:24 am

rururocks

I am a suturing type of guy

12:25 am

jbp

good one, melon!

12:25 am

melonheadjujube

tx, candy1. Now to figure it out...

12:26 am

jbp

it seems we're on a tear here

12:26 am

melonheadjujube

tx, jbp.

12:27 am

rururocks

i'm stuck

12:28 am

jbp

on what ruru?

12:28 am

jbp

don't want to let you swing in the wind

12:29 am

rururocks

I can't find anything else

12:29 am

jbp

who would like to clue me on the bottom lone E?

12:30 am

melonheadjujube

stopping at 83. Have all the 7s and 8s. Clues, anyone, before I go?

12:30 am

rururocks

12:30 am

candy1

jbp - en4/9.

12:30 am

rururocks

can you list the 7's melon

12:30 am

jbp

thanks for the fish, ruru

12:30 am

jbp

nbt, nbs, and 64 left... we'll see how much longer I last

12:31 am

jbp

I'm missing 1 7 and 1 8

12:32 am

jbp

also, how is 'hiny' and/or 'hiney' not a word?!

12:33 am

melonheadjujube

because it's spelled heinie?

12:33 am

jbp

is it really? wow, I had no idea!

12:33 am

rururocks

you are in arrears on that word jb

12:33 am

jbp

wasn't there a sonja heinie?

12:34 am

jbp

I should have assessed my spelling

12:34 am

rururocks

no butts about it

12:34 am

cybernan

hi all - nbt, nbs and it was Sonja Hennie

12:34 am

jbp

ah, thanks nan!

12:35 am

jbp

I take it back then

12:35 am

rururocks

Sonja heinie was bootalicious

12:36 am

jbp

phantom: sleuth

12:37 am

melonheadjujube

ch7/40 rings a bell, er7/36 might describe a regal cap (a tale to tell?). ly7s are two ugly words from an ugly past. re 7/8 might be a re-application of Kiwi? sh7 is more familiar with an en- in front, and te7 is found amongst ten chessmen.

12:37 am

melonheadjujube

regal cape, not cap. sorry.

12:38 am

melonheadjujube

my phantom was cherish.

12:38 am

licketySplitAUS

It was a really strange issue and I took a stab in the dark and working out a solution. Had to change my FTP from Active to Passive - and now it works ok. Must have something to do with a new Wifi Router I have here - interfering with traffic or something. Anyway - that's techno babble - don't worry, letme know if any other issues.

Hello Mrs Rose

1:30 am

grannyrose

hello dear friend

1:39 am

puglet

did the day wipe you out Rose

1:40 am

grannyrose

not too bad, pugs. i nearly wiped out the physio. she hurt when she massaged the muscle in my thigh.

1:41 am

puglet

whys that

1:41 am

grannyrose

how are you? how's the pain?

1:42 am

grannyrose

pugs, it's the muscle which was cut during surgery. and of course i have to use it in order to walk and do exercises. so it is going to be sore and stiff.

1:42 am

puglet

not too much pain but I just feel wiped out---Iam trying to make myself feel better than I do--lol

1:43 am

puglet

I understand that

1:43 am

grannyrose

you poor love.....

1:44 am

puglet

I spent three hours yesterday filling out this and that form for insurance and I got to call today to finish up

1:45 am

grannyrose

good girl...is this medical insurance?

1:45 am

puglet

yes, through the goverment

1:45 am

puglet

they ask some of the dumbest questions

1:45 am

grannyrose

yay....about time....

1:46 am

grannyrose

yeah...like....what was your grandmother's hat size?

1:46 am

puglet

just about--lol

1:47 am

puglet

I spent over an hour answering so many and their server went down and had to start all over

1:48 am

grannyrose

ugghhh, don't you hate that?? and of course nothing was saved, and you had to redo, right?

1:49 am

grannyrose

the rain is here....i love the smell of newly wet garden...

1:49 am

puglet

of course not--lol

1:50 am

puglet

oh I do too. Ive always liked the rain---I enjoy walking in it

1:51 am

grannyrose

dinner is being dished up. will definitely come back later, hun. don going out so we will be totally uninterrupted...lol

1:52 am

puglet

Nice! enjoy

2:37 am

grannyrose

back!! tummy full of yummy food. * sigh *

2:38 am

puglet

welcome back :)

2:38 am

puglet

Don, having a night out with the guys?

2:39 am

grannyrose

with the guys from church. our new deacon is going to speak.

2:39 am

puglet

that sounds nice

2:40 am

grannyrose

don has been asked to be on the small group of people to help with the deacons journey.

2:40 am

puglet

is your new deacon young

2:40 am

puglet

what journey is that

2:40 am

grannyrose

no, he's older than me...he was a late starter...lol

2:41 am

grannyrose

his journey with the Lord.

2:41 am

puglet

do you have a deacon for the youth and then one for the older people

2:41 am

grannyrose

don will be counseling him, helping him to do what is right.

2:41 am

puglet

oh--that special

2:42 am

grannyrose

not really, pugs. our youth are generally led by lay people.

2:43 am

grannyrose

don is very knowledgeable about the canons (laws ) of our church. he can help this new minister to understand whatis expected of him within the church.

2:44 am

puglet

sounds good for the deacon to feel he fits in then

2:45 am

puglet

did your old deacon retire or did he move away

2:46 am

grannyrose

lol, yes...last sunday it was announced that there was a picture of his newly ordained group in our church newspaper. i jokingly called out that instead of finding 'where's wally' it would be 'where's lachy'. he cracked up laughing.

2:47 am

grannyrose

sadly he died last october, pugs, after a long battle with cancer.

2:47 am

puglet

ahh, thats too bad. Why so long in getting a new one

2:49 am

grannyrose

hmmm, our vestry and wardens have to be careful as to who they select. the deacon has to empathise with his congregation.

2:50 am

puglet

sounds about like our goverment system here--lol

2:51 am

grannyrose

they interviewed quite a few ministers....asking questions about family, values, etc. ther would be no point in appointing a youngish man, say in his 20's, and ask him to spitiually guide people in their 60's, 70's.

2:52 am

puglet

it was in the 60's yesterday and to be so today too and then the temps are going to drop and snow/rain tomorrow

2:53 am

puglet

you dont have very many young people there in your church

2:53 am

grannyrose

good grief!! it's a wonder you all aren't dropping with pneumonia or flu!!

2:54 am

puglet

it was nice enough that I did open the windows for a bit to air out the house

2:54 am

grannyrose

not in this church, pugs. the area is mainly occupied by retirees. further up the hill, younger families and kids, further in towards town, younger families and kids. this particular area older people.

2:55 am

puglet

That makes more sense

2:56 am

grannyrose

the area is reasonably flat, and we have a good hospital just around the corner, the train and bus station is at the end of the street, doctors and chemist, and supermarket, newsagent and very good butcher all within 5-10 minutes of home.

2:57 am

puglet

Iam thinking, OO posted about the meaning of the phrase "good grief" and how it came to be--it was very interesting

2:58 am

puglet

do you take the train very much---I think thats so cool

2:59 am

grannyrose

not at the moment, pugs. i need to be safe, and be assured that i would get a seat. couldn't stand for too long.

2:59 am

puglet

growing up, the train ran right behind our house. Coming through town is slowed and we would hop on it to ride it across the trussel before it picked up speed again

3:00 am

grannyrose

nice, pugs. so daring of you!!

3:01 am

puglet

Its a wonder we didnt get ran over--lol

3:01 am

grannyrose

when i lived a bit further out, ( before i married don ) we had a vintage steam train pass almost by our back-door. if you google puffing billy, the dandenongs....you will see it.

3:02 am

puglet

when I was training in the nursing home, I took care of an older gentleman that was a hobo and thats how he traveled. He had some good stories

3:02 am

puglet

okay

3:02 am

grannyrose

i bet he did...lol

3:03 am

puglet

He was such a nice man.....I love listening to older people tell stories of their lives

3:04 am

grannyrose

yeah....they have such a wealth to share....and then suddenly, YOU are one of the oldies, telling stories to the kids and young folk. * sigh *

3:05 am

puglet

so true--lol

3:06 am

grannyrose

when you google search puffing billy, try the second site listed. it is the web site for the actual puffing billy society.

3:06 am

puglet

alright, will I see you there too? lol

3:07 am

grannyrose

they have vidoes too

3:07 am

grannyrose

cheeky possum!!!

3:07 am

puglet

okay

3:08 am

puglet

they done away with most of the trains here--which I think is sad

3:08 am

puglet

the one that use to run behind my old home is completly gone now---the tracks and all

3:09 am

grannyrose

strange! trains are so much a part of our infrastructure. use of public transport is highly encouraged.

3:10 am

puglet

I wish that were so here

3:11 am

puglet

I dont even know where the closest passenger train is here--maybe in the capital

3:11 am

grannyrose

here in melbourne, they are currently putting all trains underground where they once ran across a road. it is reducing so many level-crossing accidents.

3:11 am

puglet

like subways?

3:13 am

grannyrose

plus trains and commuting cars all run smoother. no pugs, just under the road they once ran across. then back up into the open air. that would be about 300-400 feet.

3:13 am

puglet

oh

3:14 am

grannyrose

we do have a subway in town centre, then the trains, as they emerge from the loop, are in the open air again.

3:15 am

puglet

does it cost much to travel by train or the subway

3:16 am

puglet

Sprite has train travel too there where she lives

3:16 am

grannyrose

compared to driving your car in, plus the cost of parking? no, it is a fraction of the cost.

3:17 am

puglet

is that how you get to work

3:17 am

grannyrose

we also have overland trains which run between our big cities, and quite a few which go into the country-side and back.

3:17 am

puglet

these are all passenger trains

3:18 am

grannyrose

unfortunately no, pugs. there is no public transport which links my home to my work. plus i am not too keen on travelling after 9pm on public transport. even with don. if there was a large group of us together, yes.

3:20 am

puglet

yeah, that wouldnt be too safe....it was spooky when I went to the ER. Their parking lot is not light up too great.

3:20 am

grannyrose

i have a small car, it runs on ethanol-based fuel, and uses very little at that.

3:21 am

grannyrose

i'm glad you went, even so, pugs. i can't begin to tell you how scared i was for you, hun.

3:21 am

puglet

well the shot did help me

3:40 am

grannyrose

sorry, back. phone call...DIL number 2 organising DIL number 3's birthday celebration.

3:41 am

puglet

oh, that will be nice--you all taking her out

3:42 am

o-o

phantom: contumacious ... perhaps

3:43 am

puglet

good morning OO and who is that?

3:44 am

puglet

I could be that at times--lol

3:46 am

puglet

OO, do you have passenger trains out there where you live

3:47 am

grannyrose

hey ya o-o. you doing goodly today?

3:49 am

puglet

He just drops us a big old word and then just leaves us--lol

3:50 am

o-o

No and no.

3:50 am

grannyrose

* climbs out from under o-o's word * gee, thanx buddy...lol

3:50 am

grannyrose

oh, o-o. sorry to hear that, mate. anything we can do to help?

3:51 am

sprite

good morning all

3:52 am

o-o

Yes, make your health and well-being a top priority.

3:52 am

puglet

Hugs OO--Iam really sorry about that for you

3:52 am

grannyrose

g'day spritey, and cooee

3:52 am

sprite

a special *hug* for you, o-o... may there be rays of sunshine that touch you today and make things a little more bearable.

3:52 am

puglet

good morning Dear Sprite

3:53 am

o-o

Just practicing my whining.

3:53 am

grannyrose

thanx o-o. ditto what sprite said. i am so sorry you are having a lousy day. * gentle smiles at o-o *

3:53 am

puglet

I would give up some of my health if I could OO for you to feel better

3:53 am

sprite

you never whine, o-o. You are a hero in my eyes.

3:54 am

puglet

I think it might be good for you to whine(if thats what you want to call it)

3:54 am

sprite

and pug, so happy to see you in babble, hope your back is recovering and you are taking things extremely easy

3:54 am

sprite

and you, rose, are you feeling better?

3:54 am

puglet

How is our Sprite today

3:55 am

sprite

I am fine, thanks pug :)

3:55 am

puglet

I feel wiped out but other than that I am better

3:56 am

sprite

hmz glad your back feels less painful. But feeling wiped out means you really need to rest and take things very very easy, hun... I hope you are doing just that.

3:56 am

o-o

No pugs, my well-being is my responsibility. The best thing you can do is love and forgive yourself ... you are a good person ... remind and reward yourself for that.

3:56 am

sprite

A-freaking-men to that, o-o

3:57 am

grannyrose

absolutely o-o.

3:58 am

puglet

thank you OO, but I worry very much about you, you are a friend OO, and if you need to reach out or gripe or cry Iam here for you as I know these others are too

3:59 am

sprite

unconditionally, yes

3:59 am

grannyrose

sprite, doing better than okay, hun. now actually raising my heart rate on the bike. and doing 5 minutes twice/day. also have dropped another of the pain meds. so now on 2 first thing, and then one at 2pm, then nothing of the strong meds until the next day.

4:00 am

sprite

oh wow rose, you are going so strong! So proud of you, hun. That was (and is) a helluva battle. Superrose!

4:01 am

grannyrose

lolol...thanx hun. it was last wednesday...i turned the corner, and there i was....no crutches, walking around the house aid-free. physio very pleased with how i am walking. not hitching that hip any more, either.

4:02 am

sprite

awesome, rose. Am so glad you have been loyal to your body's demands and stood your ground against well-intentioned but way too early pressure to build down the pain meds.

4:02 am

grannyrose

o-o, please understand, this circle of babblers are non-judgemental. we support and care for each other, either here in chog, or elsewhere.

4:04 am

puglet

I think OO needs some love and caring friends in his life to help over the rough times just as we all do

4:05 am

sprite

well I am here, for all three of you, whenever you need a listening ear and an open heart.

4:06 am

pink17

sprite

4:06 am

puglet

4:08 am

puglet

4:08 am

grannyrose

4:09 am

pink17

4:09 am

sprite

4:09 am

puglet

4:10 am

grannyrose

4:10 am

4:10 am

4:45 am

Good morning friends. Stealth babbling from the back if chorus class.

7:55 am

Trifioso

And i need to vent- this is probably completely non PC to say, but the student i am the one on one aide for is driving me mental today. She is being an awful snarky little teenage PUKE?

7:57 am

Trifioso

I wish she could tell me whats making her so unrelentingly pissy. I feel helpless

8:00 am

Alleyn58

O-0 don't understand the Gruffalo reference!

8:07 am

crosshair

good morning everyone:). ((trif)) I am sorry you are immersed in teenage drama and angst today. They grow out of it...eventually.... around 35...

8:08 am

Riverdance

I dont know how you Para's do it - one of my close friends works one on one with troubled kids.......she is very upfront with them and does not let them get away with it.

8:09 am

crosshair

they will test every limit to see what they can get away with, that is for sure

8:09 am

Riverdance

need tea - brb

8:09 am

Trifioso

Trifioso

And i TRY to be my best self, but she is pushing it hard today

8:10 am

8:13 am

Trifioso

she doesnt have enough verbal skills to tell me whats up. Its a wicked bummer

8:14 am

Riverdance

downs kids are usually very sweet - maybe she is not feeling well?

8:14 am

Trifioso

Thanks crissy. Not feeling very effective this week

8:14 am

Trifioso

I suspect so river

8:15 am

Riverdance

she is also at the age where female issues/hormones may affect her behavior

8:15 am

Trifioso

sorry, CROSSY? tough typing on a nook

8:15 am

crosshair

it is ok, remember, I invented crossy speak

8:16 am

crosshair

all experienced babbler should be able to translate and not point out the obvious. I see my own so much I just do it in my head and move on:)

8:29 am

crosshair

I love the look I get from the kids (18-25 year olds) in class as the old men and women ( 10 mature students such as myself out of a class of 25 people) continually bust the grading curve:)

8:30 am

Riverdance

well, this is scary.. I am actually remembering some of the weirdo words from the past!

9:51 am

crosshair

wow. I had no idea that microwave popcorn was so bad for you "Up until about five years ago, I had never even heard of perfluorooctanoic acid, or PFOA. It’s the chemical used to line the bags of microwave popcorn so that they don’t catch on fire. And while I’m a big fan of keeping flaming microwaves at bay, I’m alarmed by the fact that PFOA has been linked to cancer, postponed puberty, thyroid disease and high cholesterol in kids. Not to mention the chemicals that are used to get that “imitation butter” flavor so often found on microwave popcorn. Yuck. Steer clear of the microwave version and pop your own"

9:51 am

10:00 am

flosey

so true River, have heard that many times

10:00 am

crosshair

it is hard to say riverdance. it comes out of the blue, on some unsuspecting, sunny Tuesday afternoon and the doctor hits you over the head with a cancer verdict after a routine check up

10:01 am

crosshair

usually it all boils down to how early you stuble across the first cancer while getting seen for something else

10:01 am

crosshair

stumble

10:02 am

crosshair

for example, if i had waited 6 more months before being seen, my first cancer would of killed me

10:02 am

crosshair

so, needless to say, i do not give a flying fart that bacon is bad for me:))

10:03 am

4:51 pm

crosshair

howdy jaxx:)

4:51 pm

Kaplan the Magne

Jaxx, where do you live?

4:53 pm

jaxx7

In a small seaside town in Devon, England called Teignmouth (pronounced Tinmuth)

4:53 pm

crosshair

i have heard of that town. funny world it is. Must of been in a book i read recently

4:53 pm

Kaplan the Magne

Oh. You Brits with the extra consonants.

4:54 pm

crosshair

I know. was in book called Raise the Titanic, by Clive Cussler. a good rip roaring read

4:54 pm

jaxx7

We had them first! You Americans made things easier.

4:54 pm

crosshair

this is true. jaxx has you there

4:55 pm

crosshair

they also leave out all the letter u's jaxx;)

4:56 pm

jaxx7

Some of the phrases you use like gotten are actually purer than ours, more related to the original old English.

4:56 pm

crosshair

but they are handy when you need to borrow some military equipment, the subs we bought off you we rather leaky lol

4:58 pm

jaxx7

I wouldn't know about that. What does annoy me is the deletion of ph in, for eg Sulphuric, for an f. lazy!

4:58 pm

crosshair

lol the u missing in colour drive me batty especially on the word office programme, keeps coming up as an error

5:00 pm

jaxx7

English is a very eccentric language and hard to learn to speak and write.

5:00 pm

crosshair

it is full of mysteries

5:01 pm

jaxx7

You can put your your PC on British English and then it won't be an error :)

5:01 pm

crosshair

even in word? because it has its own spell check

5:02 pm

crosshair

there are so many settings i have yet to even touch on in that programme

5:03 pm

jaxx7

Its all down to being conquered regularly and having an empire - we adopted the other languages where the word was better than an existing one eg Bungalow from India where there was no such word back in the day.

5:03 pm

crosshair

listed at 30 and i thought so. last few are all what i like to call un-words

5:03 pm

MollyL

In Word, click on Tools, then Language then Set Language. It even has "Canadian English"

5:03 pm

crosshair

cool

5:04 pm

jaxx7

There you are problem solved, thanks Molly and Hi

5:07 pm

jaxx7

Crossy, I like Clive Cussler's books but have not heard of that one.

5:09 pm

jaxx7

You might have heard of Teignmouth in connection with Donald Crowhurst who faked his round the world trip and left from here.

5:10 pm

jaxx7

Am I talking to myself? I do that regularly with my husband.

5:10 pm

crosshair

he has many good novels; but they are full of brio and not to everyones taste. i have many of them in ebook format. If you have an e-reader and would like some, just e-mail me

5:11 pm

jaxx7

I am old fashioned when it comes to e-readers and don't have one. I prefer real books. I also don't have a mobile phone

5:12 pm

crosshair

nothing wrong with that. a few good titles are the raise the titanic, sahara, vixen 03, his early one the medeterranian caper.. so many.,..

5:13 pm

crosshair

just google his name and bring up the wilipedia on him and it will list all hsi works

5:13 pm

westford

hello crossy and all

5:13 pm

crosshair

howdy,westford

5:13 pm

westford

crossy I have a question if you don't mind

5:13 pm

crosshair

go ahead

5:14 pm

jaxx7

I have been very stern with myself today and sorted out those books I won't read again. It hurts me to give them away but it must br done before the bookcase collapses. Thanks anyway, crossy

5:14 pm

crosshair

:) a prblem shared by many of us, jaxx

5:15 pm

crosshair

i have 400 books on my e-reader , however:))

5:15 pm

westford

my husband has been having so much trouble with his neck and shoulder can't lie down in bed has to sleep in his recliner finally went to the doc yesterday and got some pain pills and an mri I remember you had some problems with that and wondered what they did or are doing for you

5:15 pm

westford

sorry to butt in

5:15 pm

jaxx7

I understand that it would ease the storage problem but I just like the feel and smell of a book.

5:16 pm

crosshair

no problem. they need to make sure he has not got a pinched nerve first. ask for a cat scan

5:16 pm

westford

and in keeping with the subject line I love The Story of English

5:16 pm

crosshair

he may have herniated disks like mine and not know it

5:16 pm

crosshair

or a simple pinched nerve

5:17 pm

crosshair

my neck is now also full of arthritis

5:17 pm

jaxx7

In the meantime you could try rubbing in olbas oil. It is not just good for relieving congested noses.

5:17 pm

crosshair

a neck massage wil help him greatly

5:17 pm

westford

Okay that's what I'll tell him..He has had an on going problem with his C4 and C5 disc from an ejection years ago

5:18 pm

westford

has had surgery and has calcium build up but he says the pain is different

5:18 pm

jaxx7

Was it a steroid injection?

5:18 pm

crosshair

my neck is a combination of three herniated disks, arthritis and a narrowing of some of the openings that the nerves pass through

5:18 pm

westford

no an ejection from his airplane

5:18 pm

crosshair

yes, a cat scan is your next step to see exactly what is going on in there

5:19 pm

crosshair

yes, the compression g-forces from an ejection seat can do damage very easily

5:19 pm

westford

I was thinking arthritis too and I know he has narrow openings

5:19 pm

westford

this has been very helpful thanks crossy

5:19 pm

jaxx7

Compaction is the problem then. Try an osteopath or chiropracter for that massage. They can work wonders.

5:19 pm

crosshair

if he is in the service make sure all medical treatment is doccumented, you may get recompense later

5:20 pm

westford

thanks jaxx I know he wants to avoid more surgery

5:20 pm

westford

crossy he's a retired fighter pilot

5:20 pm

crosshair

but get the scan before you let a bone cracker touch him!!

5:20 pm

crosshair

they will do more damage then good if things are badly eroded or out of place imho

5:21 pm

westford

would you recommend heat or ice ?

5:21 pm

crosshair

i figured he was. lol. did not think he had his own personal jet in the garage:))

5:21 pm

crosshair

heat and ice in roataion

5:21 pm

crosshair

rotation

5:22 pm

crosshair

start with a bit of heat

5:22 pm

westford

they let him keep his ejection seat but he gave it away..I thought it would make a great commode

5:22 pm

crosshair

but get that massage in

5:22 pm

westford

thank you both so much he's really in a lot of pain

5:22 pm

crosshair

just ten minutes with some esential oils and it really, really helps

5:22 pm

MollyL

West, he's still eligible for medical treatment at armed services hospitals, correct?

5:22 pm

crosshair

or just baby oil

5:23 pm

crosshair

but i am guessing some disk issues at the very least:(

5:23 pm

jaxx7

I had policeman's heel and conventional medicine was useless. I went to an osteopath who put it right. Plantar Fasciitis is the medical name. it could be the discs between four and five have been herniated.

5:23 pm

westford

yes he is Molly right now he's just seeing a regular doc

5:24 pm

crosshair

i would run any alternative medicine pass your doctor first

5:24 pm

jaxx7

Almond oil which is used as a base for aromatherapy oils is very good as well.

5:24 pm

westford

babble is the best thank you all for your input

5:25 pm

crosshair

np at all, westford. a scan will give you tons of information then you both can decide on what type of treatment

5:25 pm

jaxx7

There are very few ailments that we Babblers haven't had or know someone who has.

5:25 pm

MollyL

Just to clarify for people in other countries, retired US Military personnel are eligible for free medical care at US armed services hospitals. And they also cannot sue the US Government for anything.

5:25 pm

crosshair

but it can be agony indeed;(

5:26 pm

crosshair

so they can get treatment but never sue?

5:26 pm

crosshair

well, take the treatment anyways. you guys pay through the nose for that stuff

5:26 pm

MollyL

As far as I know.

5:27 pm

crosshair

well, we do too, just at tax time:)

5:27 pm

westford

he's really nervous about further surgery

5:27 pm

westford

tax time arghh

5:28 pm

crosshair

it is a tough decision. i am meeting with a neurosurgeon this spring and we have to decide the lesser of the two evils

5:28 pm

MollyL

There are so many back injuries as a result of military service.

5:28 pm

westford

yes it is

5:28 pm

jaxx7

I don't pay tax now I am retired. My pension isn't very big.

5:29 pm

crosshair

i had a friend of mine who waited with the same three buggered up disks untill he could hardly walk, but after the surgery he was in a walker for the rest of his life:(

5:29 pm

westford

he's still working full time as an engineer

westford

5:30 pm

crosshair

or does he feel a pulling sensation?

5:30 pm

jaxx7

just don't let it go on for too long or operations become much more complicated. My brother-in-law found that out with his cataracts.

5:30 pm

westford

this seems to be a new thing that just came on suddenly he thinks he did it while exercising

5:30 pm

crosshair

cataracts are another thing. they get overripe

5:31 pm

westford

he's never mentioned a pulling sensation

5:31 pm

crosshair

i blew my 3 disks out while exercising...

5:31 pm

jaxx7

Exactly but discs ossify

5:31 pm

crosshair

5:31 pm

crosshair

problem is the risks

5:31 pm

I don't think I'll ever get out of bed lol

5:31 pm

5:32 pm

jaxx7

Cheerful aren't we? Life is one big risk and I don't worry or I'd never get out of bed.

5:33 pm

crosshair

5:38 pm

jaxx7

It started off like arthritis in his shoulders and has just got worse. He is supposed to end up in a wheelchair but sheer determination has kept him moving and, although he has a stick,he is still getting around under his own steam.

5:43 pm

jaxx7

I think he is fantastic. He has developed the hardening one side of the spinal column more than the other. In theory, he should have started twisting like a corkscrew as well. Luckily that does not seem to be happening, thank goodness. he has problems getting his shoes and socks off and on but what are wives for?

5:43 pm

crosshair

can they do nothing for him?

5:43 pm

jaxx7

No.

5:43 pm

crosshair

5:44 pm

There is a lot to be said for the power of determination.

5:45 pm
