How've you been, Worz?

worzel

Not so bad thanks. Suffering a bit with a pain in my back which I'm pretty sure is going to be another burst of pleurisy so that's something to look forward to. How bout you?
12:31 am
Lizlin

All's good here thanks. Look after yourself!

back pain isn't overdrama (in my humble opinion) :( it stinks
12:33 am
ARB

Dee, I agree.
12:33 am
Lizlin

I'm sure it does! Have you had another pain free day?
12:33 am
VolleymomDee

on prednisone now for a lower back issue... dreading that the dose is decreasing :(
12:34 am
worzel

right time for some caffine *semi-poof*
12:34 am
Lizlin

Do you decrease under doc's advice?
12:35 am
VolleymomDee

had bearable pain today; got to go to neighborhood picnic, which turned out lovely, with no rain ... yes, this is a decreasing dose regimen... 4 tabs one time a day for 4 days, then 3, 2, 1
12:35 am
rururocks

can we take steroids and play babble?
12:36 am
Lizlin

So if it becomes unbearable, you tell the doc!
12:36 am
flosey

I'm off to bed, goodnight all, 1:35 a.m.

Sleep well, Flosey :)

night flosey
12:36 am
VolleymomDee

when I take prednisone, I can do anything, especially on high dose days... really don't want to stop... will see what doc decides to do next on the 11th at my next appointment.
12:36 am
VolleymomDee

Nite, flosey!

VolleymomDee

I am trying to avoid surgery, so I am behaving, but I want to be aggressive in treatment. I didn't realize just how high / tough the pain was until I started the prednisone. Now I realize just how bad it has been.
12:38 am
Lizlin

Have a good day, Chrissie
12:39 am
VolleymomDee

bye, chrissie
12:39 am
Lizlin

I hope you can manage on the pain killers and avoid surgery.
12:41 am
VolleymomDee

tx, liz, me, too. My back is crap... afraid once they start, I would be in deep do do. I haven't been on any heavy duty pain meds, just steroid and a muscle relaxant for a couple of days at the beginning. I think a disc or two have bulged and are pinching a nerve.
12:41 am
VolleymomDee

Aging stinks some times... feel like an old jalopy that has too many things that need fixing LOL...
12:42 am
Lizlin

Ouch! Hugs and sympathy.
12:42 am
VolleymomDee

ty vm... enough about me, how was your day?
12:43 am
Lizlin

Good - whale watching this morning. Nothing spectacular - sad thing is that we see whales so often, that when they just swim along, we forget how magic this is for people that only ever see them once!
12:44 am
VolleymomDee

Oh, that would be magic. That is one spectacle I have always wanted to see, but I am sure for you it becomes a bit routine :)
12:45 am
Lizlin

No, not routine! It's always wonderful seeing them but we always hope for a breach or two or for them to come right up to the catamaran and "mug" us as they sometimes do. I do love seeing them and can't imagine them becoming routine.
12:47 am
VolleymomDee

Really amazing, Liz, and great that you really do appreciate them. Do you whale watch often?
12:48 am
Lizlin

We try to go every week (June to mid-October) unless we're away or the sea's too rough. I'm not a good sailor. They invented a season ticket for us!
12:48 am
VolleymomDee

So wonderful!!
12:49 am
Lizlin

Apparently, Migaloo, the only albino humpback is due to pass the coast sometime in the next few days - we saw him once in 2009. It would be amazing to see him again.
12:49 am
VolleymomDee

I would think it would be rare to see him twice!! I cannot believe you saw him in '09.
12:50 am
Lizlin

We were so lucky and I was so sick! I had a sick bag in one hand and my camera in the other!
12:50 am
Lizlin

He's fantastic and when he's under the water, it appears a bright aqua colour.
12:50 am
VolleymomDee

Yipes. I am not a good sailor, either, not sure I could manage it.
12:51 am
VolleymomDee

Interesting... aqua... did you get any photos?
12:51 am
Lizlin

I take kwells every time! Yes they were in my profile but the link's not there any more!
12:51 am
VolleymomDee

Truly wonderful, Liz!
12:52 am
Lizlin

But you can google him to see him.
12:53 am
rururocks

So it was a fluke you saw him?
12:53 am
Lizlin

Nah! I'm spinning you a tale.
12:54 am
Lizlin

This year, he went through in June - there are concerns about his skin :(
12:55 am
VolleymomDee

Why is that?
12:55 am
Lizlin

I guess the white skin is prone to melanoma.
12:55 am
Lizlin

They saw patches on the skin.
12:55 am
ursh

Hi all - we also live near the coast and often see whales. There used to be a whaling station in Durban. Closed in the sixties. I love that since control on whaling has been strict that people all over the world now see whales regularly. Lets face it in the seventies it was so rare to see them close to land.
12:56 am
rururocks

Are the other whales blubbering about it?
12:56 am
VolleymomDee

LOL ru
12:56 am
Lizlin

Hi Ursh. Yes the last whaling station here closed in the 60s. They say the Southern humpback population is increasing by 10% each year - about 18000 now.
12:56 am
rururocks

Japan does not honorcwhaling laws
12:57 am
Lizlin

LOL, Ru! I can't compete in the puns!
12:57 am
VolleymomDee

too true, ursh. We did at least make those corrections (for a change) :)
12:57 am
Lizlin

True, Ru. In the commentary, on the boat, they have alluded to this when there
12:57 am
VolleymomDee

I think Japan has gotten a lot of worldwide bad press over that, too, ru... have seen several documentaries this summer about them being taken to task.
12:57 am
Lizlin

12:57 am
rururocks

A lot of people woul krill to see them eat
12:57 am

Lizlin

Hoping to see whales in NZ next year.
12:59 am
rururocks

Humpbacks are beautiful creatures
12:59 am

Japan also herd and slaughter dolphins because they also eat tuna :((
12:59 am
rururocks

Lizlin

Perhaps at the same time?
1:00 am

If we're lucky. I am going to be there for 2 weeks
1:01 am
VolleymomDee

in Japan or NZ?
1:01 am
rururocks

NZ
1:01 am
Lizlin

Hope you make it. We've booked for 3 weeks - self drive b & b. But a great company to book through. NZ, Dee.
1:02 am
Lizlin

If you haven't booked, I'd recommend looking at relaxingjourneys.nz.co I think.
1:02 am
VolleymomDee

What a trip, ru, sure hope you can work out the details.
1:03 am
Lizlin

oops - got the co and nz the wrong way round!

hubby always wanted to make that trip... but never worked out. Now it would be way too long a trip for me.
1:05 am
Lizlin

That's sad Dee. I always wanted to go to NZ - much more than Aus - and look where I ended up!
1:05 am
Lizlin

No regrets, though.
1:05 am
VolleymomDee

lol... never know what will happen... no regrets, here, either. We have done so many other amazing things :)
1:07 am
rururocks

I am going to stop at the solomon islands first to break up the trip
1:07 am
Lizlin

That sounds exotic!
1:08 am
Lizlin

I want to visit so many of the Pacific islands!
1:08 am
rururocks

I am considering emigrating there someday
1:08 am
Lizlin

NZ or the Solomon Islands?
1:09 am
rururocks

New Zealand that is
1:09 am
VolleymomDee

Are you really? How interesting?
1:09 am
VolleymomDee

! not ?
1:09 am
Lizlin

If it's anywhere near as nice as I've been told, that's a wonderful place to live.
1:10 am
Lizlin

Are you planning to visit Aus when you visit NZ. Rose will not forgive you if you miss her!
1:10 am
rururocks

We will see. I suspect i wont want to come home
1:10 am
Lizlin

And I forgot the ?
1:10 am
Lizlin

That happened to me here!
1:11 am
rururocks

No aussie trip planned
1:11 am
Lizlin

Another time, perhaps.
1:11 am
VolleymomDee

That always happens to me when we go to the Outer Banks in North Carolina... Last trip I talked hubby (cajoled) into staying an extra week. It was heaven!

5:39 am

You could do what we have done and plant bulbs around the stone. They last longer and weather better than cut flowers.
5:39 am
grannyrose

I don't think men can weed gardens. Unless hs is unusually awful, I think most of them refuse to learn which are weeds and which are small perennials

most things are the opposite with my wife and me - I try to keep her away from weeding, laundry, etc.

7:42 am

both hubby and I are long retired
7:42 am
rubyfoo

I'll bet she would have been surprised
7:42 am
HarryHood

the kids start school tomorrow - so today they get checked for lice :)
7:42 am
grannyrose

so, flosey, that makes you 14 hours behind me, or me 14 hours ahead of you. take your pick...lolol
7:42 am
rubyfoo

eeew
7:42 am
Wolvie

lmao-- harry. u aretoo funny
7:43 am
HarryHood

seriously - there's a long line at school today with all kids getting checked
7:43 am
flosey

here too, Harry, but at home (BC) the teachers are still out on strike so there will be a lot of working moms having to pay for daycare
7:43 am
Wolvie

wow- i didnt think they had to do that anymore
7:44 am
rubyfoo

evidently lice have become a huge problem. I think with the changing climate a lot of insects that died down in the winter now flourish all year
7:44 am
HarryHood

wow - teachers on strike!
7:44 am
flosey

is this a physical check?
7:44 am
rubyfoo

fie on teachers' unions. When I was a teacher, I refused to join
7:44 am
flosey

yes, they went out mid June and seems to be a stalemate
7:44 am
HarryHood

also with summer camp and world travel the lice come in droves. we have, so far, thankfully, poo poo poo, avoided the problem
7:45 am
HarryHood

flosey - how else would they do it? a virtual lice check?
7:45 am
flosey

I don't think it is an option, ruby
7:45 am
rubyfoo

I assume poo poo poo is like spitting over your shoulder
7:45 am
Wolvie

had not considered that Harry. wow
7:45 am
HarryHood

yes :)
7:45 am
Wolvie

lol ruby
7:46 am

There are countries in which if you complement someone on how beautiful the baby is, granny spsits over her shoulder (or maybe on the baby lol)
7:46 am
grannyrose

that was my job, many years ago...pediculosis nurse and immunisation nurse....
7:47 am
HarryHood

I had to look up pediculosis
7:47 am
HarryHood

both thankless tasks, grannyrose
7:48 am
flosey

I don't remember there ever being such a problem when I was in school - was never checked - but we were immunized at school by the PH nurses
7:48 am
72 Temple Owl

don't even start the immunization issue.
7:48 am
grannyrose

we found many kids infested...some kids had " strings of pearls". i.e. just about every strand of hair had up to 30 nits on it...
7:48 am
HarryHood

some schools do scoliosis checks as well
7:49 am
rubyfoo

When I was a teacher, up 'til about 78, there were frequent outbreaks of head lice and pink eye and flu epidemics which would shut down the schools.
7:49 am
flosey

oh my gosh, rose, that's revolting
7:49 am
rubyfoo

but the union wasn't obligatory and I worked longer hours than were needed, just to get my job done
7:49 am
Wolvie

taking a break- have a great day all :-)
7:49 am
rubyfoo

bye wolvie
7:50 am
grannyrose

lol, flosey, not as revolting as having a child step up to you, and you can see live lice running up and down the plaits.
7:50 am

enjoy, wolvie. xoxox

7:52 am

how would they do a scoliosis check without xrays?
7:52 am
grannyrose

and we had to respect the kids wearing turbans. those we sent home ASAP without checking. we requested the parents to check the hair themselves.
7:52 am
HarryHood

just check the straightness of the spine
7:52 am
mixi6

have the person bend over and eyeball the straightness of the spine.
7:52 am
grannyrose

scalp itchy, river? hello dearest...long time no see.
7:53 am
mixi6

That's how I was diagnosed 40 years ago. I finally had someone measure the angle (from X-rays)
7:53 am
flosey

that would have been helpful for me, found I had such much later in life, scoliosis that is!
7:54 am
Anniebrook

what can be done for scoliosis?
7:54 am
Riverdance

luckily my kids never got lice - was always worried about that when sending them to summer camp. My daughter has the thickest hair you could imagine. It would gave been a nightmare. The camps checked all kids the first day. If they had lice they were not allowed to stay.

9:07 am

magnesium is to help with the muscle quivering, and the nausea, and the body-temperature control.
9:07 am

sounds like it's a worthwhile treatment then
9:08 am
MLFAN17

some type of disease granny?

i have fibromyalgia. a disorder which affects my muscles and other bits of my body functions.

that sounds terrible to deal with

i had thought that too much magnesium isnt good for the body after a while?
9:10 am
grannyrose

saanichcat...i try to not dwell on it...otherwise i would be permanently down...
9:11 am
grannyrose

mlf, they infuse 5 grams, weekly over 4 weeks...then cut back depending on the body response.
9:12 am
saanichcat

I really do hope it helps you rose
9:12 am

5 grams seems to be a lot?
9:12 am
grannyrose

thanx saanichcat. so do i!!!
9:13 am
Aloyisius

... back, was unceremoniously kicked off the internet for some reason.. granny.. I too hope that the infusions will help - so sorry you have this challenge
9:14 am
grannyrose

mlf...i seem to excrete magnesium very fast...infusing gets it into a cellular level quickly. we have to chart how we are feeling every week, between infusions.
9:15 am

what is the MO menu?

All fruits and vegetables, very little meat, no desserts. Like prison food for kids.
1:45 pm
flosey

wow, no desserts! couldn't do that
1:46 pm
flosey

could, I guess, but would not choose to
1:46 pm

There was a statistic recently released, say that, since the inception of newer, "healthier" school lunch offerings, kids are throwing out 50% more food.
1:46 pm
mcurlschool

mah, brought left over pizza from home!
1:48 pm
Judi

Between that and "common core", parents can now be assured that their children will be functionaly illiterate and malnourished.
1:49 pm
mcurlschool

I would say, having worked lunchroom supervision the past few years, that that % is more like 80% Judi
1:50 pm
MollyL

Oh, but who cares about the illiterate thing. Parents provide their kids with cell phones so all they have to do is WRYT LK THZ
1:51 pm
Judi

As with most things regarding schools, statistics are underreported. So, I'm inclined to believe you mcurl.
1:52 pm
Judi

Poor English teachers must be tearing their hair out. Grade school kids are probably counfounded as to why they have to use all those extra letters in the alphabet when they just R-not needed.
1:53 pm
mcurlschool

they don't teach the "grammar" portion of English any more, they are more concerned with reading fluency than anything else.
1:54 pm
Judi

Uhg. And I hear cursive writing is going by the wayside. Well, I always thought everyone would be better off printing anyway. Especially doctors.
1:55 pm
mcurlschool

it got so bad in our district last year regarding the amount of "condiments" the students were taking that the adults had to take over and the kids were only allowed 1 TBS of whatever the condiment was available. If you were having burger AND fries, you got 1 tbs (a 2 second pour) for both items.
1:56 pm
Judi

LOL. Ketchup rationing! Absurd!
1:56 pm
mcurlschool

Yes, cursive writing; for most teachers, is no longer on the front burner. The 4th grade teacher I volunteer for REQUIRES all "writing" work to be in cursive and even deducts points if not done that way but she is a rarity
1:59 pm
mcurlschool

well, signing off for now as my lunch time is done! I'll be back in the evening.

2:58 pm

Regarding the le5 citrus fruit + ice. That is an item that is two separate words. Hence, no joy in Babble land.
3:13 pm
doseffing

... yes ... but what about something which has the most le5y taste?
3:13 pm
Judi

So, stick that in your ice cream cone and suck it.
3:14 pm
cybernan

that's what I was thinking, dos
3:15 pm
Judi

Hmm. Good point. We must demand comparative justice for le5 conjugation.
3:16 pm
doseffing

... ooh ... I bet all the fe8/60s don't like the fe7/44 word ... ... and it must be an advertising word too
3:16 pm
Judi

Also, if your le5 is possessed, wouldn't it be le5-ic??
3:17 pm
doseffing

... ... only if it was bitten by a bat and had all the juice sucked out of it
3:18 pm

I didn't know churches had lead singers. Do you have back-up, doo-whop girls?
8:58 pm
Book Doctor Gwen

not all churches have lead singers. some call them songleaders, or soloists, or section leaders, or cantors. no doo-wop girls here, but there is a choir that sometimes sings backup
9:01 pm
Book Doctor Gwen

once, when we were doing a song where the choir just had to hum, i referred to them as my "pips" -- some of them did not think that was funny LOL
9:01 pm
MollyL

Oh see, I think referring to any back up singers as "Pips" is a compliment.
