rururocks
just minor cuts and scratches
12:57 am
flosey
ah, so you were tossed around a bit?
12:57 am
rururocks
oh yeah.. this was a pretty good sized quake flosey
12:58 am
VolleymomDee
really scary, ru. I have never been in an earthquake, and hope I never am. So sorry you had to experience it.
12:58 am
rururocks
Saanich..you'll crack up at this.. I told everyone I shouldn't have put on that Carol King record last night
12:58 am
saanichcat

1:01 am
rururocks
glad to have my power back though.. god bless PG and E today
1:01 am
saanichcat
are you ok and feeling safe?
1:02 am
rururocks
they're expecting more aftershocks.. but as long as they are in the 4's.. that's fine with me.
1:02 am
VolleymomDee
It is pretty amazing they got the power back on so quickly.
1:02 am
rururocks
I protected all the fragile stuff today while cleaning up
1:03 am
VolleymomDee
Is this the biggest one you have gone through?
1:03 am
rururocks
took 8 hours for us dee..quite a drag actually
1:03 am
VolleymomDee
really fortunate; we are often without longer than that - during snow storms, thunderstorms...
1:03 am
rururocks
downtown napa is a mess
1:04 am
rururocks
my next house gets a generator installed when I move in dee
1:04 am
VolleymomDee
they must have worked really hard to get it back on
1:05 am
rururocks
I think so.. they got all the major streets working by noon.. my area was the last to get power back
1:05 am
rururocks
found the in 8 finally
1:05 am
VolleymomDee
we, too, have talked about a generator, ru...
1:05 am
rururocks
plodding along here
1:06 am
rururocks
Mrs Ru has one at my old house and she was very happy she had one
1:06 am
rururocks
I would say it is a great investment for comfort dee
1:06 am
rururocks
We were always happy to have power when there were storms and heatwaves
1:06 am
VolleymomDee
we have a small one, but we have been considering a bigger one, since we have moved
1:07 am
rururocks
we have a humongous one
1:07 am
rururocks
I wish I had it here today :D
1:07 am
saanichcat
half the people where I live have generators
1:08 am
rururocks
up where you are saanich.. they're really necessary no?
1:08 am
saanichcat
in my small pocket area, yes
1:08 am
flosey
we have one here, have never had to use it
1:09 am
rururocks
why are homes so expensive there in your area saanich
1:09 am
rururocks
really flosey?
1:09 am
saanichcat
waterfront, parks as far as you can see etc
1:09 am
flosey
hubby starts every once in a while, just to be sure of it
1:10 am
rururocks
you should have it serviced flosey before each winter
1:10 am
saanichcat
that's good flosey, so many people get one, don't know how to use it and really mess up
1:10 am
rururocks
grrrrr.. i'm stuck
1:10 am
flosey
he may do that, I don't know
1:11 am
rururocks
I hope I get some of your good karma now flosey
1:12 am
saanichcat
all of us are sending much good karma ru
1:12 am
flosey
we had a bit of a shake once several years ago - I thought it was hubby's nephew on the tractor doing something dumb
1:12 am
helensgirlkid
Glad you are OK ru. This was a fairly unusual earthquake for Napa I gather
1:12 am
grannyrose
cooee and g'day from me. are all our babblers in/around california safe?
1:12 am
rururocks
thanks .. yes Helens.. very rare
1:13 am
rururocks
I had a big mess here granny, but i'm alive
1:14 am
grannyrose
you poor man, ruru. i know it may sound silly, but is there anything i can do from here?
1:15 am
flosey
am sure we're all very glad you're here to talk about it
1:15 am
VolleymomDee
ditto that, flosey
1:15 am
rururocks
no.. thanks though granny
1:16 am
rururocks
the birds haven't made a peep here all day
1:17 am
VolleymomDee
perhaps they all migrated before the quake hit... wonder how long before they return
1:18 am
saanichcat
birds seem to be very alert of earthquakes. Once walking through a field of chirping birds, they suddenlt went quiet and about 10 - 20 seconds late, we had a quake
1:18 am
VolleymomDee
wow, very interesting
1:19 am
saanichcat
I've noticed it before
1:19 am
rururocks
there'll be a run on plates at Target tomorrow
1:20 am
saanichcat
as well as earthquake kits
1:20 am
VolleymomDee
I bet that is correct! Wonder if they will be marked up?
1:21 am
rururocks
wow.. are the t's hard or is it me?
1:22 am
grannyrose
oh, dee, i saw my new doctor for FM today. he is starting me on lyrica, and i have my first magnesium treatment in 2 days.
1:22 am
VolleymomDee
hope it helps, rose!
1:22 am
rururocks
what's lyrica?
1:24 am
VolleymomDee
new med on the market
1:25 am
grannyrose
and the acute pain on the medial aspect of my knee is probably not the torn ligament. it is probably the peri-tibial nerve which is often damaged in kn4 surgery.
1:26 am
VolleymomDee
can they fix / repair it?
1:27 am
grannyrose
and the big pow-wow with work is on wednesday afternoon. a few prayers wouldn't go astray...
1:27 am
grannyrose
if the magnesium and lyrica don't settle it, i will have to have it injected.
1:28 am
VolleymomDee
hubby's injection really helped him; definitely will add you to my prayer list
1:29 am
grannyrose
and, and, and i finally got my ha4s on the pre-op ortho surgeon's report. he says i shouldn't be back at work for 6-9 months, depending on the surgery. so all up, workcover are in it up to their necks and getting deeper.
1:30 am
VolleymomDee
it will be interesting to see how they respond now
1:31 am
grannyrose
it certainly will. can't wait to see my rep's face when he reads that report. workcover forced me back to work 4 months too early. and now i am the one paying for it.
1:32 am
VolleymomDee
incredibly stupid on their part; making you return so early is going to cost them $ in the long run
1:32 am
rururocks
that is usually the case granny isn't it.. forcing one back to work before they're ready
1:33 am
flosey
very sleepy, I'm off to bed, goodnight all
1:33 am
flosey
and no more shaking, ru
1:33 am
grannyrose
ruru, the attitude nowadays is get the injured party back ASAP. when what the worker has been through should be taken into consideration first of all.
1:33 am
VolleymomDee
nite, flosey; sleep well!
1:33 am
grannyrose
sweet dreams flosey dear.
1:34 am
saanichcat
'night flosey
1:34 am
VolleymomDee
I'm off, too... sleepy eyes as well. Hugs to all. Glad you are okay, ru. Hope all goes well in your Wed. meeting, rose.
1:34 am
VolleymomDee
nite, saani
1:35 am
grannyrose
thanx dee, i hope you sleep well
1:35 am

good night Dee, sleep well

1:41 am
grannyrose
i missed you last night, sprite. during dinner, friends dropped in which was lovely. i didn't really get back to chat much before my midnight.
1:41 am
sprite
am sorry to have missed you, rose, but glad you had such a nice evening :)
1:41 am
rururocks
hi sprite
1:42 am
rururocks
i'm taking my tired ass and going to bed.. nite all
1:42 am
sprite
sleep well, ru, and sweet dreams to you
1:42 am
grannyrose
yay you, sprite. and night-night ruru. hope you sleep well.
1:47 am
sprite
and how are you today, rose?
1:47 am
grannyrose
saw my new doctor for the FM today.
1:48 am
sprite
how did it go? And what did he say?
1:49 am
grannyrose
okay, i am starting lyrica(pregabalin) tonight, and go in for my first of 4 magnesium treatments next wednesday.
1:49 am
sprite
wow, exciting. What should it do?
1:50 am
grannyrose
he said the stress of the fall and surgery caused the exacerbation of the FM. and the sharp pain on the inner aspect of my kn4 is actually pre-tibial nerve pain.
1:51 am
grannyrose
the lyrica works of quietening the nerves in the muscles, as does the magnesium. so it is a two-pronged 'attack' on the FM itself.
1:51 am
sprite
nerve pain is the worst. Has he told you anything new?
1:53 am
grannyrose
if the kn4 pain doesn't settle, it will have to be injected. he checked a few of my trigger points, and when it brought tears to my eyes, he was so apologetic. he says i am super sensitive at hte moment, as to be expected.
1:53 am
sprite
awww he sounds so sweet.
1:54 am
grannyrose
he was lovely. and, and i got my hands on the pre-op ortho surgeon's report which workcover sent me to see.
1:55 am
sprite
woooooot that is very good. And?
1:55 am
grannyrose
they have forced me back to work 4 months too early, thus worsening my condition, and not allowing me to recover fully before returning to work. they are in it up to their necks, and sinking.
1:56 am
sprite
yes yes yesssssss oh this is goooooood! They are so dead, rose. Your union rep is gonna love this....
1:57 am
grannyrose
the big meeting is wednesday afternoon. so if you think of me before you go to bed on tuesday, can you put in a word or two with the big guy upstairs, please?
1:57 am
sprite
you bet, rose. And long before then as well.
1:58 am
grannyrose
*smiling at you* thanx darling. i can't believe what they have done to me. i mean, they have ignored their own 'specialist' advice....lol
1:59 am
sprite
it stinks three ways to heaven, sweetie. And I am ever so sorry that they did and caused all this shit. But since they did... I am glad you got your hands on the proof and you can sink them faster than they can swim!
2:00 am
grannyrose
i feel so justified, sprite. i kept having this nagging thought th4 perhaps i was malingering....and now i know i wasn't.
2:02 am
sprite
aw my dear friend... sigh. You and malingering... it just cannot happen. You are an overachiever, silly. Programmed that way by genes and your dear mother. As one of my therapist told me: Take half of what you think you should be doing, and then take 10%. And don't do more than that.
2:03 am
grannyrose
what good advice, sprite. maybe i should be in therapy. but i don't need it, i have you, my sister in more ways th4 can be counted, right?
2:04 am
sprite
you have me for keeps, rose. And I gladly pass on all the knowledge and insight my own therapy has given me.
2:09 am
grannyrose
sprite, when i did the shopping today, i found the bags of mixed spice, and chinese 5 spice. i swear, never ask a man to look for something like th4, he won't find it in a million years. anyway, i have them now, and will forward them ASAP.
2:09 am
sprite
oh wow! Awesome, rose, thank you :D :D
2:10 am
sprite
and yeah, I know. my own men cannot really find stuff in the store... or in the home... either.
2:11 am
grannyrose
lolol...like honey, where are my socks? and the answer is....where did you leave them dear?
2:12 am
sprite
like... where is my book? I just put it right here on the table and now it is gone! Where did you put it?
.... eh darling, maybe under the newspaper you just threw on the table?
2:13 am
grannyrose
roflol....
2:13 am
sprite
*giggles* And we love them anyway.
2:14 am
grannyrose
i know we do....but there is something to be said about 'boy' looks....like...please Lord, OPEN their eyes!!
2:15 am
grannyrose
oh, and i heard back sir joso. he is well and happy. has settled into the basement flat of his aunt and uncle's home.
2:15 am
sprite
no, that is not it, sweetie. They cannot help it. Their brains are wired to see what is further away, and moving. They are great at that. We are wired to see what is nearby and/or unmoving.
2:16 am
sprite
am glad he is happy and well, rose. Was worried about him.
2:17 am
grannyrose
i recently saw an article on tv about how men and women use maps. very interesting.
2:18 am
grannyrose
men apparently like to look at a map and work out how to get there, women, however are quite happy to ask for directions.
2:18 am
sprite
yes :) Here at home we have simply accepted the difference and live from that knowledge. Saves a lot of aggravation!
2:18 am
grannyrose
poor don goes nuts because i have know idea of direction at all.
2:19 am
sprite
yeah, that is something feminine brains have. (Not all of them, some more than others.) I can go into a store, come out and walk back, in stead of moving on, without having a clue until I recognise the shops I have already seen.
2:19 am
grannyrose
i'm okay in early morning or late afternoon, but in the middle of the day, completely lost. * sigh *
2:20 am
sprite
am not worth shit in the middle of the day, period, to be honest. I am a morning and evening/night person. That whole afternoon is just a waste of time for me.
2:21 am
grannyrose
oh, dear, more similarities....
2:21 am
sprite
:) not surprisingly, lol
2:24 am
sprite
darling, I have fireflies and must go prepare for my bills and finance appointment with my good friend. Am so scared, sigh. *hugs* and sleep well.
2:24 am
sprite
and to all a blessed day and a peaceful night.

5:39 am
grannyrose
{{hugs}} zooz. how was the car boot sale?
5:39 am
zoozzoom
Crap but it was an outing I suppose..lol
5:40 am
grannyrose
awww, poor zooz. a load of junk?
5:40 am
zoozzoom
When we got back i gave his shed a good sort out.As his tools were all over the place.
5:41 am
zoozzoom
Yep nothing worth buying. I would of put most of what they had out for the dustbinmen to collect..lol
5:41 am
grannyrose
well at least th4 kept you occupied and off the streets....lol
5:42 am
zoozzoom
LOL yes I do not want to get an ASBO :-)
5:42 am
zoozzoom
How are you, Rose. I see from the chat below you have had good news. I am very pleased to see th4 and about time too :-)
5:43 am
grannyrose
yeah, zooz. wednesday should be very interesting.
5:44 am
zoozzoom
Is th4 the meeting day or final decision announcement day?
5:45 am
zoozzoom
Wonder if they will offer you another job position in the company?
5:45 am
grannyrose
meeting day, zooz. my union rep is champing at the bit. he was very sarcastic about my employer, having experienced them before. this time i have loaded the guns for him.
5:46 am
grannyrose
i have been warned about that. usually a year later the funds dry up, and my position is no longer available.
5:46 am
zoozzoom
I know you will make the right choice.
5:47 am
grannyrose
i am going to ask for a contract until i hit retirement age in 2 1/2 years. would you like pictures of th4?
5:48 am
zoozzoom
How do you think you will feel working for them again after what they have put you through.Although it would be nice for you I am sure to see your work friends again?
5:49 am
crosshair
yes, rose. I have seen that tactic before. they create a "special" position just for you, then it is not renewed due to budget constraints in the next fiscal year
5:50 am
grannyrose
not sure zooz. as i said...going to ask for a contract. if they won't give me th4, th4 they will have to fire me. i am not resigning.
5:50 am
grannyrose
g'day crossy
5:50 am
zoozzoom
Good for you for not resigning.

It it good you have a rep handling your interests:)

I go back in 7 days:)
6:15 am
Trifioso
hi crossy
6:16 am
grannyrose
hi trif. how do feel about th4?
6:16 am
grannyrose
ugh....it's th4 time of night for me...* how do you feel*
6:16 am
Trifioso
Im walking into a very, very hostile place. But this is where I need to be, because I need health insurance, so I am going to try to learn what I can, grow from the experience, and do my best.
6:17 am
crosshair
sorry, I must of missed something. Why is going back to school a hostile experience for you?
6:17 am
grannyrose
trif, i will be praying for you, if th4's okay.
6:18 am
crosshair
If you do not mind my butting in:)
6:19 am
Trifioso
its a horrible school. the kids are nice, the staff is the cattiest bunch of people I have ever met, and my direct report is the worst bully I have ever encountered. I tried my hardest to get another job this summer, but the competition was fierce and no luck. so back I go.
6:19 am
Trifioso
and thanks granny...
6:20 am
Trifioso
I have a lot to learn about how to navigate such an environment, and I will. I am thankful and lucky to have a job at all, and want to learn what I can from this experience.
6:20 am
crosshair
yes, take the best of what you can from it all and leave the rest behind
6:21 am
Trifioso
That is exactly the lesson Ineed to learn, crossy - I tend to get all emotionally tangled in a job, and thus need to learn how to just do what I am hired to do, then go home at the end of the day and live my real life
6:21 am
grannyrose
hang in there trif. what most of them are sensing is the goodness in you, and the evil in them is reacting to it. just keep showing a gentle kind face. i will pray for strength.
6:23 am
grannyrose
when you return evil with kindness, civility and gentleness, it becomes very confounded.
6:23 am
Trifioso
a lot of it is union issues. I like to leave each day with a clean desk. but the other paras work and breathe union rules, which say we leave at a specific time. So they get frosted when I am there past that time. I don't see what it is to them if I stay, but whoo! do they get vexed
6:24 am
Trifioso
I agree in theory, granny, except with for the bully lady. When she steamrolls me and I return kindness, I look like a simpletom, or a doormat
6:25 am
crosshair
Well I am guessing you get a yearly salary and do not charge by the hour, so what is it to them if you spend a few moments keeping your work area tidy?
6:25 am
grannyrose
trif, you are not a simpleton or a doormat. stand firm, a present her with the true example of being the right kind of human. she will have egg on her face, i assure you.
6:26 am
Trifioso
exactly. anyway - I have put it off as long as I can...gotta go get ready....love to all
6:26 am
crosshair
tc triff:)
6:28 am
grannyrose
ahhh, i understand. at st. elsewhere's, where the ward was so busy, i often worked extra time , writing up my reports, because i would spend the whole shift caring for my patients. the other nurses resented the fact my patients never complained or had to ring their bells for attention.
6:30 am
grannyrose
lolol, one nurse said i drugged them all, because my patients were so quiet. and when they took care of them , they constantly rang their bells and made 'unreasonable' demands on them.
6:31 am
crosshair
Well, all that says to me is that you knew your stuff and knew the ins and outs of proper patient care
6:31 am
grannyrose
*smiling at you* dear man, thanx for th4.
6:32 am
crosshair
I have seen way to many nurses get so blase about things that they treat patients like nothing more than a breathing piece of meat and that imho is where problems begin. To hell with transferrance
6:35 am
grannyrose
crossy, i had one patient with cancer of the liver and pancreas. he was admitted in such severe pain. the doctor ordered morphine infusion, which i duly set up, and ran. an hour later he died, at peace and not in pain. one nurse snarled at me, you killed him, because i had followed the doctor's orders.
6:36 am
grannyrose
he had not had enough morphine to kill him in one hour. just enough to allow him to go peacefully.
6:37 am
crosshair
The doctor gave his orders, you did your duty. If the dr had been in error, i am sure you would have noted it
6:39 am
grannyrose
absolutely, crossy. lol...if i had a dollar for every time i have queried a doctor's orders over 44 years of nursing...i would be very rich.
6:41 am
crosshair
yes, you are a doctors back-up. almost like my editor. i write so many words, that I cannot see the trees for the forest sometimes and it is good to have someone watching your back. I am sure the Doctors you have worked with would or should feel the same way

7:05 am

7:06 am
grannyrose
well sinequan has a side-effect of sedating the nerves, and steroids also have a similar side-effect.
7:07 am
grannyrose
it took me nearly 12 weeks to get off the sinequan....i am so not wanting to go there again. and the steroids are not appropriate because they effect healing bone.
7:09 am
MLFAN17

And it is not just "writing what you know " that makes a book. it is like a sponge in that it is altered by your life experiences. How you live, who you meet, what you eat, where you travel and what you read all play a part in defining how you go about putting a story together. Like Hemingway said: "writing is easy, you just hold your arm over the page and open up a vein and bleed"
8:48 am

sounds messy

Hi Crossy. We will paddle on a small lake today, but it has 3 islands for us to land on. I love island-happing when paddling. We will have lunch at one of them.
9:50 am

Sounds perfect:)
9:55 am
Scrabbler
Yes, and when I am done I will pick blueberries for an hour at a farm with 40 acres of blueberry bushes. I went picking a few wks ago and got 10 lbs in 1 hr on 3 bushes.
9:56 am

I finished the 10 lbs last night, after freezing most. I share some and freeze some.
9:58 am
crosshair
I do not trust large quantities of frozen food. had a bad experience years ago and we lost half a cow and 300 dollars worth of seafood. Now if i cannot can it or deydrate it, it does not get bought in bulk
9:59 am
Scrabbler
Those are major losses if the freezer breaks down.
9:59 am

that is what happened. there had been lobster tails and king crab legs.. all wasted:(
10:01 am

10:01 am

How much do they cost?
10:02 am

top end ones can be 200 dollars or so, budget ones 50 dollars and in a pinch you can use your oven

I was wondering the same thing cyber, he was on yesterday
9:01 pm
cybernan
hadn't seen any tv reports when I was on line yesterday -- can't believe all the damage I'm seeing today. I hope his house and animals are ok
9:02 pm
Jillyjill
Didn't actually get on with him, but right after. There was mention of losing booze but someone also illuded to an injury...so I'm hoping all is OK

Just scrolled through chog, he was on at the flip, there was damage and some cuts and scratches
