*grins* He'll be around, rose, don't worry
1:51 am
grannyrose

it was fantastic. about a third intothe infusion, i felt all my muscles relaxing. if i had been home and in bed, i would have rolled over and gone to sleep. it was bliss.
1:51 am
sprite

oh wow! Must be such a relief, to finally be able to feel your muscles relax.
1:52 am
grannyrose

it s sprite. you don't realise how tense they are, until they relax. lol
1:52 am

ain't that the truth!
1:54 am

1:55 am

1:55 am

lol ok :) No rest for the wicked... or for doctors!
2:00 am
sprite

I hope you will sleep beautifully, rose, with those relaxed muscles and no hot flashes and no cramps. No alarm clock, you hear? Just... sleep!
2:01 am
grannyrose

oh for goodness sake. i asked don when doc martin came on, and he said 12 minutes past 4. and i said okay just after 4 then, to which he said, no 2 minutes past 4 is just past four. and i said it's lucky you are wearing your glasses...he repeated what he had said, looked at me and said, i'm going to wear these glasses for a very long time, aren't i?
2:02 am
grannyrose

oh, sprite i am so looking forward to tonight.
2:02 am

lololllll oh my god, rose, this is about exactly what Rob could have said... they are alike in that way, aren't they?

3:38 am
grannyrose

nice, seain. hmmm end of your summer, end of my winter...now i know when to plan my trip to the americas.
3:42 am
dcseain

Yes, depending on where in the US/Canada, Summer is May-Sep, Jun-Aug, Jul-Sep. Here in the Washington, DC/Baltimore area, i think April and October are the nicest times to visit.
3:44 am
grannyrose

okay, i guess i am going to be emailing a lot of you....or i need to spend a lot of time over there.
3:44 am
dcseain

a HS friend of mine is visiting at the end of the month. He lives in Melbourne.
3:45 am
dcseain

Well, those of us in Virginia, DC, Maryland, Deleware, Pennsylvania, and New Jersey have gotten together several times in various parts of our region. And i'm sure we'd be happy to get together for you if you were in our ballpark region. :)
3:45 am
grannyrose

oh ??? where about in melbourne ?
3:59 am
dcseain

hm. I'd have to do some digging. Hm. i'll have to find out. :) Two of my HS friends live there -- one's house hunting now -- they're looking in Box Hill.
4:02 am
dcseain

i see that that's E of Melbourne proper.
4:03 am
grannyrose

box hill same side of melbourne central as me.it's about 30-45 minutes from me, depending on the time and day.
4:08 am
grannyrose

wouldn't it be lovely to meet up? i am thinking of an aussie meet...
4:08 am
dcseain

i know here in North America, we've had a number of regional meet-ups, if not a in a while.
4:09 am
dcseain

on that note, it's a bit after 5 here (Grid Time+1). I think i might get some sleep now.
4:09 am

Australia is on my bucket list but |I don't think i'll ever get there. I'll be lucky to get to Switzerland agai and it's only 35 minutes away! :(

what are you going to see?
4:12 am
rubyfoo

about once a month, my friend Catherine and I have an afternoon
4:12 am
rubyfoo

We go to the multiplex and take our chances
4:12 am
rubyfoo

don't really care, it's just great to get out of here
4:12 am
grannyrose

lol...the best way...
4:13 am
rubyfoo

and if there's nothing appealing, we just go shopping and walk around
4:13 am
grannyrose

yeah, i hear you friend. when i go out with my friend, june. i clamber into her car and say...get me outta here!.
4:13 am
rubyfoo

same script! lol
4:14 am
grannyrose

roflol...
4:15 am
rubyfoo

and now I have to make lunch for himself who has been walking in circles all morning. I came downstairs at 8"30 and he was already finishing his aperitif!
4:15 am
rubyfoo

I wish I had nothing to do!
4:15 am
grannyrose

please don't get me wrong...i love don to pieces...but i just have to be away from him in order to stay with him. does that make sense?
4:16 am
rubyfoo

definitely! That's why retirement is so difficult.
4:17 am
grannyrose

no you don't ruby. i cannot do stuff. it drives me nuts. in my head, i can do so much...reality...i cannot do it.
4:18 am
rubyfoo

No, what I mean is, my day is filled with little tasks -- a load of laundry here, a meal there, a dog walk here, etc. I would love to just sit around and read
4:18 am
rubyfoo

I loved working and don't love being a caregiver!
4:19 am
grannyrose

only for a short period, dear. then your brain would kick in with...what's next?
4:19 am
rubyfoo

ya think?
4:19 am
grannyrose

what you need is a massive dose of grannyrose...
4:20 am
rubyfoo

I'm waiting for that.....!!!!
4:20 am
grannyrose

so am i, love...it cannot happen too soon.
4:22 am
grannyrose

i am just hanging in there. waiting for social service's answer to my application for a pension. and wondering what the outcome of conciliation will be. i just want to be free to live my life again.
4:22 am
rubyfoo

the phone just rang twice -- first a telemarketer ("sorry, I don't speak French" and then my husband "What is the plan today -- it's written on our daily calendar!!!))
4:23 am

xoxox...are you well ? ho9w is the mother ?? is the weather still being kind to you ?
4:27 am
grannyrose

ahhhh, you answered my last question.
4:28 am
zoozzoom

Mother is fine.Althogh they are having a wet room fitted and they do not like people running up and down the stairs all day bless them..lol
4:28 am
zoozzoom

I ma well also :-)
4:28 am
zoozzoom

4:28 am
grannyrose

i have more tulip bulbs than i planted sprouting. I DIDN'T KILL TH4!!!
4:29 am
zoozzoom

YaY for you! Hope they are all different colours?
4:29 am
grannyrose

my first is about to bloom...never has a tulip bulb been so closely monitored...lol
4:30 am
grannyrose

i hope so, zooz. i bought a bag of mixed bulbs.
4:30 am
zoozzoom

Teehee! I love potting about in my garden. I have no plan or idea of what I am doing.But I enjoy it non the less.
4:32 am
grannyrose

ditto zooz. and the sun is showing more and more. don has started bringing down the brick chimney between the kitchen and laundry. my dreams are very close to being realised.
4:32 am
zoozzoom

I used to rake up all the fallen leafs in the autumn.But then I watched a time lapsed video of the leafs on the ground and all these worms popped up and pulled the leaves underground it was amazing.That is what give the soil nourishment!
4:33 am
zoozzoom

Sounds like a lot of work.Glad he is getting it done though :-)
4:33 am
grannyrose

wow!! zooz..such an incredible thing to see.
4:34 am
zoozzoom

Well it was on TV I did not do the time lapse video myself but yes it was amazing.Nature IS amazing!
4:34 am
grannyrose

you and me both zooz. we have such a tiny kitchen...and nowhere for an eating area.
4:35 am
zoozzoom

I too have a tiny kitchen.So I eat in my front room and watch TV.Not enough room the the kitchen for a table.That is how small my kitchen is :-(
4:37 am
grannyrose

yeah...i hear you...i have a very small table in the kitchen. about 2' by 3'. when we open up the two rooms we will be able to have a 4' diameter round table in there.
4:38 am
zoozzoom

I think American people would be shocked by the size of a lot of our kitchens and other rooms here in the UK. They seem to have much larger and better built properties there.
4:38 am
zoozzoom

That does sound better, Rose more room to sit down and enjoy your meal :-)
4:38 am
grannyrose

zooz....most homes/houses were built for a much smaller race
4:40 am
zoozzoom

My house in the winter gets so cold and that is with the heating on full.I sit there with a duvet around me and a wollen hat..lol And that is no joke.
4:40 am
grannyrose

the americans have had unlimited space available.
4:41 am
zoozzoom

Hence the reason why I am enjoying the summer still holding on here :-)
4:41 am
grannyrose

ugh, zooz. what sort of heating do you have?
4:43 am
zoozzoom

Crappy economy seven which is to say it comes on at night and heats up these brick things inside the heater and it is supposed to release the heat during the day.The only problem with that is.That it goes cold by about 9pm :-(
4:43 am
zoozzoom

But my house is so crap built (it is newish) it does not hold the heat in!
4:45 am
zoozzoom

All the older house we lived in in, in the past, say pre 1930s were much better built and held the heat in so much better than these crap new ones.
4:45 am
zoozzoom

oops too many ins there..lol
4:47 am
grannyrose

lolol, zooz.would it be easier and cheaper to buy some 'portable' heaters. and leave the other turned off ?
4:47 am
zoozzoom

I had better take my leave as I need to check on my parents to see if they are coping okay with the builders still running rampage in their house..lol
4:48 am
zoozzoom

Not with the price of electricity & gas the way it is.No, Rose :-(
4:48 am
grannyrose

oh, dear, zooz. hope all is well with the olds.
4:48 am
zoozzoom

Toodle pips for now. It was nice to chat to you for a while :-)

You don't remember what I called the radiologist who owns this practice when describing how horrible she is to transcribe? I called her the alien chipmunk with OCD on drugs. She's the worst I have ever heard including foreign doctors.

And now it is time for Crossy,s tidbit of the day!! Today I am thinking of the big vote for our Scottish friends tomorrow, and it brought to mind our own Quebec referendum of 1995 and I wish to share a few number with you that I find rather interesting: First thing was the voter turn-out at that time was almost 94%, Not bad at all. There were 4,671,008 registered voters and the final vote was tight with a 1.2% spread of 49.42% yea to 50.58% no. Very very tight indeed. Of all that there were 86,501 spoiled or otherwise inadmissible votes totaling 1.82%. Just think of that. If all over those spoiled votes had been usable it might have changed the course of history! Check your votes my Scottish friends and make them count, no matter if you are yea or nay because as you can see, it can be very close indeed!
2:18 pm
crosshair

When the spoiled vote percentage exceeds the final tally spread percentage it can cause much anguish:)

you could have had a recount and then your supreme court could have stepped in and arbitrarily ended the recount and caused people to be mad forever

Many internet sites are dying due to the fact that everyone is parked on Facebook all day long. It's sad.

Facebook offers lots of free games and a way to make private discussion boards where only "certain" people are allowed in. I've watched a lot of web sites die over the past few years.

One day I would love to do an "eating tour" of Italy...start at the top and end at the bottom! But they'd have to ship me home in a box!
