1:00 am
flosey

goodnight Nan

she had all her marbles til the end. my mother was the one who went off to fairy land. she didn't even recognise me the last 3 days of her life.

I'm really glad his daughter is coming next week as who knows how fast this decline will do
3:37 am
grannyrose

i think it's all to do with oxygenation of the brain. any cardiac issues, or respiratory issues, or like what burt has, the TIA's will induce the same lack of cognitive function.
3:38 am
rubyfoo

My father lived to be about 93 or 4 and had his marbles, too. My mother had hers, too, but couldn't speak after her strokes but still hung on for a couple of years
3:39 am
rubyfoo

It is possible that he had another Tia yesterday before he fell. YThere is no wasy of knowing and he refuses to have any more tests
3:39 am
grannyrose

i think it is highly probable, ruby. given what he was like after you and luisa picked him up.
3:40 am
grannyrose

do you check his hand grips after each episode?
3:40 am
rubyfoo

All I can do is try to keep him safe and well-fed. I can't make him happy and he won't take an anti-depressant
3:41 am
rubyfoo

He holds my hand very (too) tightly
3:41 am
grannyrose

ruby, compare the left to the right, dear. if one is weaker, then he has had another TIA
3:42 am

OK, will do. For now,I have to go

4:26 am

4:27 am

4:32 am

we will be travelling for mo4 of tomorrow. should be home just before the flip. i think i am gonna be tired then. my body simply does not like being hurtled through space....lol
4:34 am

traveling is very tiring. Especially when you are HSP. So many triggers and impulses and impressions.
4:36 am
grannyrose

good for you, sprite. have you a little special something planned just for you?
4:36 am

no not really. Being home by myself without any obligations for today is special.
4:37 am

yeah, i know that feeling all too well. you feel like running screaming through the house just because you can.

4:46 am

lol! I told my kids mothers go deaf when they are on the toilet. All well again as soon as the door opens again.
4:47 am

4:48 am

because i had polished wood floors, i could always hear them coming. they used to go down on all fours and peer under the door to speak to me. manys the time i tricked them by lifting my feet up off the floor.

oh... reminds me of one birthday... lots of people in the house and serving cake. One of the guests hid the children's cake when they weren't looking. The kids were like, huh? And I told them it was 'run-away-cake'.
4:51 am
sprite

the guest put it back again when they weren't looking, and then took it again, it was hilarious. The kids totally believed it, and held on to it while eating it.
4:52 am
sprite

and we still call that kind of cake 'run=away=cake' here in the house
4:52 am

poor kids....how old were they?
4:52 am

around 4 and 6, I think

4:58 am

Do not get me going on politically correct Christmas greetings. We do not ask our Jewish friends to alter the way they refer to their festivities, so why demand that any other religion do the same? I get tired of kowtowing to those who create a cause just for the sake of the chaos it generates:)
6:58 am
crosshair

I make it a point to shop at retailers who are not afraid to say the "C" word in their advertizing
7:02 am
josephjames

so hypothetically, if judaism were the dominant religion, and you were a christian, you wouldn't mind being wished a happy hanukkah everywhere you went
7:02 am
crosshair

If it is the time for Hanukka, then yes, it is fine
7:02 am
MollyL

I'm a little perplexed that in our county schools, kids cannot sing anything but "Holiday Songs" but The Dreidel Song is acceptable.
7:03 am
crosshair

It does not offend me
7:03 am
crosshair

good point, molly
7:04 am
crosshair

Should we go to other countries, other places of worship and dictate how they refer to their beliefs? no.
7:05 am
MollyL

All I'm saying is if religion doesn't belong in schools, then that means all religion.
7:05 am
crosshair

I am not even Christian,; it is the point of those who are being ordered on how to refer to that which they celebrate
7:05 am
MollyL

Public schools, I should have said.
7:05 am
crosshair

I am all for other religions in schools, as long as there is a student population to support it
7:06 am
crosshair

But , at last count there were over 2400 seperate and identifiable religions... not enough classrooms for all of them:))
7:07 am
MollyL

I went to a Catholic high school and took a course called World Religions that I found very interesting. I enjoyed learning about other religions. I don't know why we are so "religion phobic" these days.
7:07 am
crosshair

IMHO those who worship in their own way should be free to do so without me or anyone else dictating how they refer to it or go about it
7:08 am
crosshair

There are so real interesting ones out there:)
7:10 am
crosshair

In Asia, are they forced to use some generic term for the way they worship?
7:10 am
crosshair

that is my 2 cents woth.
7:10 am
crosshair

lol
7:17 am
crosshair

and if Judaism were the dominant religion, Joseph, I would be polite and wish them happy Hanukkah as they celebrate and not hold forth on how my own view of God differs from theirs, and that they should alter their greeting because of it.
7:17 am

Now we can discuss puppies and kittens:)

Hannukah has become the consolation prize in America. You don't get Christmas, so we'll turn a minor Jewish holiday into something really big so you don't feel left out
8:07 am
MollyL

Why is Hannukah a consolation prize? I think it's a beautiful holiday with wonderful history.
8:09 am
bichon

Yes, but left alone, it is a minor holiday. It's not like Christmast which is central to Christianity. The idea isn't presents.. My ancestors would be shocked at the idea of presents
8:14 am

Well, the central idea of Christmas (the celebration of Christ's birth) isn't presents either.

Speaking of the Macy's parade, I was really looking forward to hearing Idina Menzel sing, and she had to sing that atrocious Mariah Carey song. Blech.

11:46 am

it actually sounds more fun than it is
11:46 am

i was gonna say, it doesn't really sound like all that much fun
11:46 am

12:29 pm
rururocks

12:29 pm

12:30 pm

It must be nice to be cooked for when you are used to doing all the cooking.
12:40 pm
rururocks

I bought them a new oven for xmas.. it was installed in October... their old one died and they couldn't afford a new one
12:41 pm
MollyL

Wow, that was nice of you.
12:41 pm
rururocks

you know? it really was.. I was just happy to be with them.. and it was nice to have someone cook for me. I really enjoyed it.
12:42 pm
rururocks

I thought something useful and necessary for xmas was better than flannel socks and crap like that
12:42 pm
MollyL

I always appreciate the useful over the superfluous.
12:43 pm

yes.. me too
12:43 pm

Belated Thanksgiving wishes to all!
6:04 pm
Jillyjill

Our Thanksgiving tradition for more than 20 years is that my family and my best friend
6:04 pm
MollyL

Oh wow. I'm impressed with anyone who does a ham AND a turkey. That is a lot of cooking.
6:05 pm
rururocks

she went all out.. it was pretty damn good too
6:05 pm
Jillyjill

best friends family meet to potluck the day. Then we come to my house in the next several nights to eat leftovers
6:05 pm
rururocks

I saw some great left over recipes on MSN jilly
6:06 pm
MollyL

My philosophy is that anyone who spends days cooking Thanksgiving deserves a day at the spa the Friday after.
6:06 pm
Jillyjill

That
6:06 pm
Jillyjill

dang it all
6:06 pm
Jillyjill

that is why my friend and family get together. Quite the feast but no woman has to cook it all
6:10 pm
rururocks

good call Molly
6:10 pm
rururocks

it really is a lot of work
6:11 pm
Jillyjill

That it is ruru...
6:16 pm
MimiCat

OMG, for over two decades I did Thanksgiving dinner for a family of five with NO help. Then had to do the dishes! I'm DONE. Now some Thanksgivings are at my son's but yesterday I made a little turkey breast for myself with some sides....SO glad to now have to do all that anymore!
6:16 pm
MimiCat

not have to do
6:17 pm
rururocks

I cooked for my wife's side of the family for many many years.. without help.. it's a load.. especially the clean up.. something about Thanksgiving uses a ton of stuff in the kitchen
6:18 pm
Jillyjill

I never minded when I was younger, but my hubby has always done the dishes. I miss the gathering of family...but do like it better now.
6:19 pm
Jillyjill

But it's sort of bittersweet now with my friends and my family having grown up and moved away. Much less people.
6:19 pm
MimiCat

I must admit I'm my own worst enemy as far as cooking. I like things done a certain way and I seem to be the only one who can achieve it so no one COULD help me.
6:20 pm
rururocks

in my case I was a better cook than anyone else and I got the burden laid on me.. that's why yesterday was so special. I only made one thing..
6:21 pm
MimiCat

Absolutely (ruru).. I must humbly admit I'm one of the best cooks as well.
6:22 pm
Jillyjill

I have always brought the infamous green bean cassarole. But hubby bought too many mushrooms and so I tried a 'from scratch' recipe this year. It was wonderful!
6:22 pm
rururocks

I learned a nice trick with the turkey from a friend.. to cook the turkey breast down for an hour and a half and then flip it to finish
6:22 pm
rururocks

it comes out moister that way
6:23 pm
MimiCat

Ruru, I have always made the turkey that way! Keeps it so moist. And, Jilly, try using Golden Mushroom soup instead of cream of mushroom...much more flavorful.
6:23 pm
Jillyjill

I also tried a new thing with mine too ruru. I separated the breast skin and inserted a herb butter. It also kept the breast very moist, I roast too big a bird for flipping it.
6:24 pm
rururocks

yeah.. it really mad a big difference when I last cooked a turkey
6:24 pm
Jillyjill

I like my homemade one, but that is how I make the soup one as well. I heartily agree mimi
6:24 pm
rururocks

made.. a big difference .. sorry
6:25 pm
MimiCat

Yes, Jilly, that's a great way to add flavor and moisture. Try using Celtic sea salt...I use it for everything now...so much flavor but less sodium and really good for you.
6:25 pm
Jillyjill

But was glad hubby was asleep as I was arm deep under the skin spreading out that butter! What a sight that must have been.
6:25 pm
rururocks

I'm enjoying a very unusual wine right now
6:25 pm
Jillyjill

Do tell ruru!!
6:25 pm
rururocks

it's a grape I've never had before called Passerina
6:26 pm
Jillyjill

What vineyard?
6:26 pm
MimiCat

Another good trick is to use Knorr condensed "gel" stock. Just lay it on top of either turkey or chicken and it kind of melts over the bird.
6:26 pm
Jillyjill

I am gaining a taste for reds
6:26 pm
rururocks

it's called Abbazzia de Propezzanno Paserina Anfora
6:26 pm
Jillyjill

$$$???
6:27 pm
MimiCat

Just love finding new wines. I did more of that when I lived in California, though. Had a different lifestyle.
6:27 pm
rururocks

passerina juice aged in clay amphoras.. it's pretty damn good
6:27 pm
rururocks

It's about $36 jilly
6:28 pm
Jillyjill

That's not bad...probably can't get it up here in the frozen wilderness
6:28 pm
rururocks

I doubt it
6:28 pm
rururocks

I am going to have it with roasted pepper and tomato/basil soup
6:28 pm
rururocks

and grilled cheese quesadillas
6:29 pm
Jillyjill

Just going to have to visit you ruru! LOL
6:29 pm
rururocks

homemade by the way
6:29 pm
Jillyjill

My hubby loves leftover turkey, so we are having leftovers.
6:29 pm
rururocks

with canned tomatoes from the summer
6:29 pm
Jillyjill

I love homemade tomatoe soups!
6:30 pm
rururocks

leftovers are wonderful.. jilly.. no shame there
6:30 pm
MimiCat

Jilly...I feel a road trip coming on for you and me to go visit ruru!!!
6:31 pm
MimiCat

I prefer leftovers with most Italian food...just so much better when the flavors get really acquainted.
6:31 pm
Jillyjill

Nope...LOL, I wouldn't have to cook a turkey with our potluck, but hubby HAS to have the leftovers and I like to boil the carcass down for broth.
6:31 pm
rururocks

oh.. second day lasagna is the BEST!
6:31 pm
MimiCat

My chicken paprikash is like that...I don't serve it until the next day.
6:31 pm
Jillyjill

Wouldn't that be fun mimi!
6:31 pm
rururocks

I haven't made a lasagna in a long time
6:32 pm
MimiCat

That would be SUCH a good time, Jilly!
6:32 pm
Jillyjill

I make my yams with rosemary cream sauce the day before. It is much better
6:32 pm
stidgmere

Hello all. We are also in the midst of left overs. But that is a reward of the meal well-cooked.
6:33 pm
MimiCat

We have an Italian place here, ruru, that makes great lasagna and their meatballs are the BEST!! Have look for decent meatballs in this town for 30 years and finally find them when I'm going to move next year!
6:33 pm
MimiCat

Gotta go feed cats and put leftovers in oven. Probably bbl. BTW, I'm thankful for all of you guys!!
6:33 pm

Dorens

rururocks

6:39 pm
Dorens

oh please.... you name it. The latest is a nebulizer, and it seems to be making some headway.
6:40 pm
welki

aside from the good medicine, nebulizers force you to sit for a few minutes
6:41 pm

Dorens

6:42 pm
Dorens

6:43 pm
Dorens

they ended up here... were supposed to be at rachels new apartment in Brooklyn but I nixed that. they helped a lot, but I was flying on the prednisone yesterday and running around doing much more than i should have. it WAS delicious though, i must say
6:44 pm
72 Temple Owl

glad to hear that you were not alone. we were up at the lake again.
6:45 pm
rururocks

you can send the leftovers out here doren

6:47 pm
stidgmere

Hello Nef. Happy to see you on the chog this evening.
6:47 pm
Nef

Dorens, sorry to hear that you're having troubles; but it looks like you have the right meds to fix anything there! ;-)
6:47 pm
Dorens

i sent most of them home with the kids... jeremy and family went to spend the weekend at Rachel's. And I've eaten well today. TUrkey soup to make tomorrow and also turkey/cauliflower casserole for tomorrow's dinner
6:47 pm
Bugsaw

Dorens, I sure hope you feel well soon. COPD is hard work.
6:47 pm
Dorens

thanks nef... i think that's true
6:47 pm
Dorens

and thanks also bugs.
6:49 pm
Nef

Hi Bugsd, stidg, ruru, Dorens, TO and everyone not chatting

72 Temple Owl

hi, nef.
6:50 pm
rururocks

hello neffers
6:50 pm
Bugsaw

love your icon TO!
6:50 pm
Nef

COPD is tough! And the steroids can drive a person nuts; so I understand the bit about flying around overdoing it
6:50 pm
72 Temple Owl

hi, gmere.
6:51 pm
72 Temple Owl

gtg, feeling restless. happy babbling
6:51 pm
Nef

Bye, TO! stay well!
6:52 pm
Dorens

yeah, kind of funny that I'm supposed to rest, and feel like I need a straitjacket. I'm doing things I'm normally much too inert to do... Love the energy.
bye owl
6:54 pm
72 Temple Owl

bye, doren, hope you heal quickly, wihou hospitalization.
6:54 pm
Nef

Just be ready for when they start tapering the prednisone. Between DH and myself, we've described it as major PMS. If someone even looks at you wrong, you want to scratch their eyeballs out (DH's description)
6:56 pm
rururocks

wow
6:57 pm
Nef

(maybe I should preface that statement by the fact that they really hit DH with high doses of steroids to prevent the MS relapses)
6:58 pm
rururocks

I didn't realize cortisone had THAT much effect on people
6:58 pm
rururocks

my aunt was on high doses of cortisone for her life due to asthma
6:59 pm
rururocks

maybe my mother could have used massive doses of Cortisone :D
6:59 pm
72 Temple Owl

it wreaks havoc on bones
6:59 pm
rururocks

done yet doren?
6:59 pm
Nef

steroids do, ruru. That's why they talk about athletes who use them illegally have steroid rages
7:00 pm
rururocks

yeah.. I've heard about that nef

oops
7:00 pm

7:01 pm
rururocks

:D
7:01 pm
rururocks

doreeeeeeeennnnn?
7:01 pm
Nef

You're safe, you can come out and chat! ;-)
7:02 pm
stidgmere

Noticing I still have 62 words left. Need to focus on the grid.
7:04 pm
rururocks

i'm going to lie down for a bit.. I'm a little tired. Have fun all
7:05 pm
Nef

I started just a few minutes before I first chatted; I only have 85 words left now. Maybe I should focus on the grid too now.
7:06 pm
Dorens

sorry.. ran into the kitchen
7:06 pm
Dorens

sorry.. ran into the kitchen
7:23 pm

Noticing I have 24 words left.

upis
7:29 pm
Bugsaw

oops. sorry folks
7:30 pm
Nef

well, it wasn't a word, so you're safe! ;-)
7:33 pm
Nef

I have 54 words left and just realized I still don't have any 7 letter words.
7:34 pm
Bugsaw

thanks Nef. I left on a food hunt and didn't check where the cursor was. Some people get quite affronted apparently.
7:34 pm
stidgmere

Noticing I have 13 words left. Now trying all combinations of letters. Monekys are doing very well today for me.
7:35 pm
Nef

WTG, stidg!
7:37 pm
Nef

(I need to stop trying to chat in the WORD box!)
7:38 pm
Bugsaw

lool
7:39 pm
Nef

Bugs, this is a GAME to me. I like to come here to relax, occasionally chat with people who I've "known" through this game. If someone is taking it too seriously; then They aren't any fun and they must have a dreary life
7:40 pm
Nef

I try not to chat when those types are on; I shove the chat log off so I can't see it for my own sense of control
7:41 pm
Bugsaw

I agree Nef but sometimes I just get tired of offending people who feel the need to tell me they are offended.
7:41 pm
Bugsaw

what a great idea! I should do that too. Just never thought of it.
7:42 pm
Nef

I hear you; but wouldn't it be nice to just tell them to put a sock in it and PLAY the game?
7:42 pm
Scrabbler

Hahaha. I agree with you, Bugsaw and Nef. This is a game, a place to relax, unwind, escape from life, and chat with cyberfriends.
7:42 pm
Nef

:-D
7:42 pm
Nef

Hi Scrabs. you are 100% correct! :-)
7:43 pm
stidgmere

This isn't real? Darn. I thought I met some really cool, real people but illusions are always nice too. I have the illusion of fitting into really small sizes of clothes. Not going to happen anytime soon.
7:43 pm
Scrabbler

But, as in real life, some egos are searching for power and control.
7:43 pm
Bugsaw

HI Scrabs. I must say you are so patient when people ask for free medical advice.
7:44 pm
Bugsaw

and you are right too gmere. Most of the people here are wonderful and caring souls.
7:44 pm
Nef

LOL, stidg! I have the same illusion! ;-)
7:44 pm
Scrabbler

I want to help people negotiate the medical world and avoid unnecessary medical care or tests. It can be dangerous to be a patient and one must educate onself and be a self-advocate.
7:45 pm
stidgmere

Hi Scrabbs. Saw your relatives yesterday and they seem to be doing very well in real life.
7:45 pm
Nef

Scrabs, there must be some way to not allow them either the power or the control.
7:45 pm
Scrabbler

Nice, stidgmere
7:45 pm
Scrabbler

I ignore the meanies, both here and in life.
7:46 pm
Nef

I agree with you about the medical field, Scrabs. I find that now-a-days dealing with health issues is pretty darn scary and a person needs someone to advocate for them
7:47 pm
Scrabbler

I want to be an advocate for people because I know the problems as an insider.
7:48 pm
stidgmere

Well, with 6 left I think I'll fix some left overs and enjoy the evening. Always great to see you. What a good way to end the day. Keep up your spirits and remember, You have the power when you include others.
7:48 pm
Nef

Wouldn't it be nice to ignore most of the irritation-causing people in real life? <dreaming of ignoring things such as the ticket I got the other day…>
7:48 pm
Bugsaw

wise words as always gmere. Please give my regards to M. Gmere
7:49 pm
Nef

niters, stidg. Take care of yourself!
7:54 pm
Bugsaw

Nef do you have the as 6 word yet? I could use some help with it
7:56 pm

Bugsaw

Scrabbler

Ah, I had tried truist
8:00 pm
nik13

8:00 pm
Bugsaw

I even tried truish even though it was such an obvious oxymoron
8:01 pm
Scrabbler

I tried that one too, Bugsaw.
8:01 pm
Nef

I find that some non-words that I monkey these days are really ingrained in my mind. I'm down right positive that they MUST be Words because I've tried them so often!
8:02 pm
Scrabbler

nik--sort of acting like a chimp
8:02 pm
Nef

sorry, nik, I don't have it but will now look
8:02 pm
Scrabbler

Me too, Nef.

Hi Jilly; How are you doing?

Scrabbler

TY, that is exactly the word I was on!

8:19 pm
Scrabbler

And I am ready for bed. I've been sick since Sunday--laryngitis and cough. Not much of a voice since Monday night. Very tired too.
8:19 pm
Scrabbler

See you tomorrow, kiddos.

Nef

I'm fine, Min. We had a nice Thanksgiving; but we've all had colds so I was a bit stressed about that
9:30 pm
Nef

How about you? How are you doing and how was your Thanksgiving?
9:32 pm
Minveryork

I had a nice Thanksgiving in Connecticut with my S-I-L and her family. Only bad thing was I had no internet yesterday so no babbling for me when I got back from S-I-L's house.
9:34 pm
Nef

I'm glad you had a good day with family; what happened with the internet connection though?
9:35 pm
Minveryork

Nef, I typed "Peruvian Brandy" into Reverse Dictionary and the closest thing to letters in grid was "pichi" which isn't in the grid. Can I please have another clue for that pi 5/14?
9:35 pm
Minveryork

I got 8 inches of wet heavy snow and there was an outage.
