wb darling
3:54 am

how was your dinner?
3:55 am
grannyrose

sweetie, how was your night? and what are you plans for today?
3:55 am
grannyrose

roast lamb, mint sauce, and the most divine vegs...
3:55 am
sprite

I fell yesterday, hurt my ankle and hip. Lots of pain today :(
3:56 am
sprite

oooo sounds delish :)
3:56 am
grannyrose

awww, sprite...that is not good.
3:56 am
sprite

no kidding. Couldn't make it out of bed, almost. But moving around helps a little.
3:57 am
grannyrose

sprite, i am having to start each morning with endone. holding out til 8:30 am.
3:57 am
grannyrose

a hot shower might help, dear. after the cold packs of course. how did you fall?
3:57 am
sprite

that is not good either :( Am sorry to hear it, sweetie. That hip is a bitch, isn't it. As if you didn't have enough already.
4:00 am
grannyrose

* giggle* not getting out of bed util the pain is under control. still....one tablet each day is not a lot. don was quite angry with me. " if you are in pain, take the endone" he said.
4:00 am
grannyrose

ugh...until..
4:01 am
sprite

I am with Don. No, one a day is not a lot, and it is not giving in to an addiction. It is using the stuff for what it was designed for. Take the @(#*)@# endone.
4:02 am
grannyrose

i texted my eldest yet again the other night. apologised for what i have sai8d and done, apologised for what i have NOT said or done. absolute zip. *sigh*
4:03 am
sprite

my love stacked the whole hall with crates and boxes. I couldn't see thebottom step and missed it (I have no feeling in my feet) and fell down amidst the crates.
4:04 am
grannyrose

according to my youngest, oldest's partner just wants me to step in and acknowledge my grand-daughter.
4:04 am
sprite

it is a problem, with eldest. Since he is barking up the wrong tree with his anger, there is nothing you can do to make it better. He is like the guy that goes bezerk at the butcher's for not selling him bread.
4:04 am
grannyrose

oh, dear...{{hugs}} to rob...he must be feeling crap.
4:05 am
sprite

yeah he did, poor guy. He would go miles out of his way to spare me any pain.
4:06 am
grannyrose

sprite, just how many times must i apologise for hurts, real or imaginary?
4:08 am
sprite

my dear friend... I cannot answer that for him. This is my view of things: as long as there is love, and acknowledgement of hurts and pain, there should be easy forgiveness.
4:11 am

WTG SPRITE!!!
4:17 am
grannyrose

apologies dearest. went off to prepare meds.
4:19 am
grannyrose

sprite, my dear, i know you cannot answer for him. it is so frustrating.
4:21 am
sprite

yeah well, it is as I said, I think. He is yelling at the butcher to sell him bread, and the butcher keeps offering all the kinds of meat he can think of. And it is not going to work.

4:59 am
crosshair

I am 6 foot 2 inches tall and no longer weigh myself. Last time i stepped on the scales i was 240 pounds, but I console myself with the fact that I and stoutly built regardless.
5:03 am
crosshair

my beloved is 5 foot 2, and I can tuck her under one arm and carry her around at need:)
5:03 am

Yes it depends on what size type you are.If I remember correct it is; Ectomorph, Mesomorph, and Endomorph.

After doing way too much baking this year, I have come to this conclusion. Better to hand people a half pound of butter and some sugar, get yourself a bottle of something and enjoy yourself.
8:46 am

Butter them up and get them drunk. A simple and time-tested gift.

Yeah. No Bailey's at work. Grinches.

said he hated his job. no end in sight for overtime. we went and did a financial plan, and he retired. Then he felt somewhat guilty about leaving them even more shorthanded, but his blood pressure is now normal.
9:09 am
Scrabbler

Good for him.
9:10 am
mixi6

he is still at lo5 ends. and hasn't found enough things to do.
9:11 am
Scrabbler

Does he want to find another job?
9:11 am
Judi

He shouldn't feel bad, Mixi. One: it's a job he hated and was negatively affecting his health; 2: Companies these days are only short-handed because they are too cheap to hire and/or pay employees fair wages. So, they work the employees they have to the bone and keep asking for more.
9:12 am
Scrabbler

Yes, far too many people are overworked and underpaid.
9:14 am
mixi6

he was on a job that if someone went on vacation, someone else had to do overtime to cover. One was out with short term disability, so they couldn't replace him. He asked to go to a short work week and they ignored him (didn't think he meant it), so he took an early retirement.
9:14 am
crosshair

Howdy my babble buds!
9:14 am
Judi

Our municipality, for which I work, is trending toward not replacing people who quit or retire. If they hire a replacement, they hire a part time worker and expect them to do a full time job. Our municipality has plenty of money for salaries. They just want to cheap out on salaries and benefits.

I buy cheap beef occasionally throughout the year and use it in slow cooker recipes to make it tender. The tenderloin is a once a year treat and I blow way too much money on it. But it's worth every bite, and then some.
12:38 pm

I will. My friend's son, the one you met when we got together for the dance festival, left for his mission (the training part) on the 17th. He will be in Japan. :-D We miss him already -- will go to his house on Thursday for brunch. Help fill up the house a little bit.

Oh wow. Japan! Amazing. My son-in-law's parents are gone right now, but they are not so far away as Japan. May as well be though. They are in Missouri.

Got your note -- glad to hear you are enjoying grade 3 -- it used to be my favourite as well. Like the idea of taking them from spoon fed babies to students in one year.
