Lizlin
Hi Rose and hugs. I just got back from the gym. But more importantly, how did today go?
1:34 am
grannyrose
i left one psychiatrist scratching his head trying to work out why workcover think i have secondary mental issues.
1:35 am
grannyrose
{{hugs}} liz girl btw
1:35 am
Lizlin
I think that's funny! Perhaps someone should refer the work cover people!
1:36 am
grannyrose
i bet peter is going to get a chuckle out of that too.
1:37 am
Lizlin
Perhaps 2ndary mental issues were caused by the job and you could claim more!!!!!
1:37 am
grannyrose
oh, i like your style...roflol
1:38 am
Lizlin
Or perhaps they were caused by a bang on the head, when you slipped on the wet floor. Same outcome!
1:39 am
grannyrose
can you imagine the red faces in the meeting when workcover receives the reports?
1:40 am
Lizlin
They'll squirm a bit more and then try to think of something else.
1:40 am
Lizlin
Hopefully they'll just stop fighting though.
1:41 am
grannyrose
lawyer wants to meet up with and discuss strategies.
1:41 am
Lizlin
You mean your lawyer? Sounds like a good idea but how much longer is this going on. I mean, seriously....
1:45 am
grannyrose
i'm not sure, liz. i need to fill in my lawyer on all that is happening. he has the misleading idea that the treatment of the damaged nerve is just a one off thing. and it's not.
1:46 am
grannyrose
oh, i didn't tell you, i received 27 weeks back pay last week.
1:46 am
Lizlin
You definitely need to put him straight on that. I suppose I should've asked how you feel? Sorry for that. You sound pretty fed up.
1:47 am
grannyrose
*giggle* i'm okay. just rolling with the punches here. don got snippy because i wouldn't come out to hallam with him on the way home from town, for gosh sakes!!
1:48 am
Lizlin
Now that sounds good. Don't spend it all at once! LOL! But perhaps you should - treat yourself to something. Don will have to cope with you making decisions about what you want / don't want to do!
1:48 am
grannyrose
i have a couple of nights, waking at 2am when next doors dog comes out yapping. even though i am quite comfortable i am not falling back asleep quickly.
1:49 am
Lizlin
That's the most irritating thing.
1:50 am
grannyrose
but i am increasing my mobility, gradually, but i am getting there. now that i am walking correctly, with the walking stick, my lower back is complaining because it just used to the other way of walking....i can't win...* sigh *
1:51 am
Lizlin
Slowly slowly. Retrain the muscles - but you know that and my comments don't help the aches!
1:52 am
grannyrose
i hear you, dear friend. i am actually using the exercise bike for a few minutes/day. building that too.
1:52 am
Lizlin
You'll be running soon!
1:53 am
grannyrose
don't hold your breath!!!
1:53 am
Lizlin
You didn't take offence yesterday did you? I hope sprite didn't either.
1:54 am
grannyrose
nah, hide of a rhino, besides you are my friend...and i like you too much. if you do offend, i will let you know, np's.
1:55 am
Lizlin
Same here - never intend to offend anyone and always respect the beliefs of others - provided they're not extremist.
1:58 am
Lizlin
Did you seen, that Compass programme was on again this morning, so I've recorded it.
1:59 am
Lizlin
OK - I've got to go for a while. Back soon.

how are you feeling, rose?
2:31 am
sprite
night night sue
2:34 am
grannyrose
not too bad, sprite. still giggling inside re doctor this morning. not a lot of pain, if any. knee a bit stinging.
2:35 am
sprite
that is pretty good for such a taxing day. I am giggling right with you. "What the heck are you here for? You are psychologically sound, woman!"
2:38 am
grannyrose
doc tim, the doc who died? he opined i might benefit from some counseling in order to help me deal with the collapse of my working life. that is all. workcover have, of course, gone completely over the top.
2:38 am
sprite
yeah, well, doc... how shall I put it... I may be sane, but the same cannot be said of my workcover people...
2:39 am
sprite
yeah, that is to be expected. They will try everything they possibly can to make this about something else than their failures. But they cannot win.
2:39 am
sprite
btw, EVERYBODY could benefit from a bit of counselling when going through so much shit.
2:40 am
grannyrose
then don got really snippy because i wanted to go straight home after that visit, 2 hours driving, and nearly an hour in consult. the extra journey would have probably undone me.
2:40 am
sprite
yeah indeed. Pause, lady, pause!
2:41 am
grannyrose
he wanted to continue on to another suburb, another 1 1/2 hours driving in total.
2:41 am
sprite
is he outta his noggin?
2:42 am
grannyrose
and of course it was all my fault because he charged back out the door, leaving wallet, credit cards, mobile phone here at home...*sigh*
2:42 am
sprite
sweetie... I hope you stood up for yourself? He is such a spoilt child every now and then.
2:43 am
grannyrose
i di, love. i stayed home, and bit my tongue. he can be quite touchy, as you well know. not wanting to add fuel to that fi4.
2:44 am
grannyrose
he is completely calm and loving now...
2:44 am
sprite
and did he say sorry for his misbehaviour earlier?
2:45 am
grannyrose
not yet, but i don't have the family jewels in the palm of my hand yet.....roflol.
2:48 am
grannyrose
sprite, he is the last of four. he was terribly spoiled as a child. and his mother died, still spoiling him.
2:48 am
sprite
don't forget you can reeducate him... step by step... lol
2:49 am
grannyrose
then he married me...practical, down-to-earth, at times even blunt. and i was the eldest of 5 living kids. the mix can be explosive at times.
2:50 am
grannyrose
explosive on his part....and he usually gets....for goodness sake. stop being so dramatic.
2:50 am
sprite
yeah I understand. But it pisses me off when he treats you badly. He has no call doing that.
2:51 am
sprite
oh, but that is guys for you. Here it is 'Don't exaggerate so much! I must have told you a billion times!"
2:51 am
grannyrose
sprite, we have come so far. i had to teach him anger does not = hatred.
2:52 am
sprite
*sigh* what are mothers thinking, spoiling their sons...
2:52 am
grannyrose
honey, if he treats me badly, and i respond then it is bad. but most times i just stand back and let him explode....minutes later i have a calm and loving hubby again.
2:53 am
sprite
I still think he should at least say sorry. Acknowledge he was an ass.
2:53 am
grannyrose
he does recognise how dramatic he can be. so that is a plus i am thinking.
2:54 am
sprite
yeah, that is definitely a plus. And all in all he is a darling. But still. *Angry friend stare*
2:54 am
grannyrose
lolol....stop it sprite...he will hear you. xoxox
2:55 am
sprite
lol you know me... I would say it to his face, if I could
2:55 am
grannyrose
well if he does it when we are there you are most welcome to say/do so.
2:56 am
sprite
good. Though I probably won't have to. Rob says my eyes and face say it all, no words needed.
2:57 am
grannyrose
yay, sprite. my knight? in shining armour.
2:57 am
sprite
you betcha!
2:58 am
sprite
no way this grid holds 294 words.
3:02 am
grannyrose
ummmm, yes it does sprite. and you will find them all. i actually got down to about 50 to go before i succumbed to the lure of lickety's list.
3:02 am
sprite
wow good job. I am at 139 in and slowing down to a halt
3:03 am
grannyrose
once you find a run you will take off again.
3:03 am
sprite
let's hope so. I might be losing my touch, grin
3:04 am
grannyrose
* hm.....mmmm * maybe i am a distraction.
3:04 am

hahaha never
3:04 am
grannyrose
darn....and i was trying so hard...
3:06 am
grannyrose
* tickle, tickle * making use of this feather....col
3:07 am
sprite
evil. Good thing I am immune to tickling. Mostly. Am glad your lawyer wants to talk with you, btw. I really feel he should stand up for you.
3:09 am
grannyrose
yeah, i will email him. tell him like it is. and if he still needs to see me, then he can make the time.
3:10 am
sprite
absolutely. Ask him how many rererereassessments he will let happen before putting his foot down. Just so you know.
3:12 am
grannyrose
good question, sprite. i think workcover are allowed to have one occupational physician assessment and one psychiatric assessment per year. oh, and i am waiting for an occupational rehab assessment...not made yet.
3:13 am
sprite
right, now that makes sense. I'd say you have had more than your share already then. Time for them to pay the ferryman. Woman. Whatever.
3:13 am
grannyrose
remember...they asked me have one while i was still working? they never made the appointment.
3:14 am
sprite
they are SO to blame
3:23 am
sprite
second wind
3:23 am
grannyrose
they also sent me the paper work for them and my employer to contribute to my super fund. nothing has happened.
3:23 am
sprite
all this should be addressed and compensated in what they will have to pay you
3:26 am
grannyrose
gooo sprite

5:10 am

workcover sent me to a psychiatrist...today. i left him scratching his head trying to work out how workcover came to the conclusion i had a secondary mental issue....* giggle *

i loooove ketamine....lol
5:16 am
crosshair
Everyone does:)
5:17 am
grannyrose
what?? looove ketamine??
5:17 am
crosshair
They should of just given you a marijuana rx as a back-up. Its properties are perfect for helping with chronic pain
5:18 am
grannyrose
crossy, workcover sent me off to see a psychiatrist today. i left him scratching his head trying to work out why...lolol
5:19 am
crosshair
marinol in tablet form is an option as well
5:19 am
grannyrose
according to him, i do not have a secondary mental health issue.
5:19 am
crosshair
lol, well, what can i say, rose:)) I scratch my head with my beloved as well:)))
5:19 am
grannyrose
* giggle * crossy
5:20 am
crosshair
Did the Dr who accused you of this "secondary mental condition" share his findings with this other doctor?
5:21 am
grannyrose
nope. it was my original pain doc who opined that i MIGHT benefit from counseling, with regards to my termination of employment. nothing else!!!
5:21 am
sukee
Morning all.
5:22 am
crosshair
would be nice to know what condition you have. that way if you go off the deep end in here we can talk you down lol! You are the most level-headed rock of reason I know in here:)

mmm:(( rain mixed with wet snow today:(
5:25 am
sukee
Yep, that is our forecast too.
5:26 am
grannyrose
combined mothers deaths already dealt with in combined grief counseling.. my termination of employment was the only " unresolved " issue left.
5:27 am
crosshair
I do not worry about it anymore. For the last 2 years around here it has been a case of fighting college students for "McJobs" The days of a big satisfying careeer are long gone.
5:28 am
grannyrose
if i have a condition which requires psychiatric treatment, this doc cannot see it.
5:28 am
crosshair
Then you are fine. Type them a note that says "I am fine" and they can move on:)
5:28 am

I think freelancing is going to become the norm eventually.
5:28 am

freelancing, temp-work, and short-term, self-employed contracts

You should have a good working knowledge of your computer software when using this though.

if you are not sure of a particular program use the more info button

if i run it and don't like the results, will system restore work to bring back what I have now?

oh - doesn't sound like it

MLFAN17
no 4/4 i cant seem to find it?
11:36 am
crosshair
it brings up a list of all programs and posts its recommendation on keeping it or dumping it. You have to be careful though. it is not as fail-safe as c cleaner as it does many other things
11:36 am
MLFAN17
i worry that once i install and run some programs that i would have to pay to get it to fix computer completely
11:36 am
crosshair
All these cleaning programs are use at own risk. However, all the ones I post here i use myself with no problems
11:36 am
MLFAN17
i wanted to use c cleaner on other comuter but not sure i would know everything to keep or get rid ofp
11:37 am

will stick with c cleaner then
11:37 am

c cleaner is my favorite, along with malwarebytes
11:38 am

both are very safe and easy to use

there are just a ton of apps that came with win 8 - not sure what they are and don't know if I need them cluttering up the hard drive
11:39 am

I do not care for Win 8 or 8.1 at all. All my machines are still on Win 7
11:39 am

11:40 am
crosshair
before that they were all on Xp and before that they were on 98SE:)
11:41 am
cybernan
me too, crossy, but when the old laptop died win 7 was no longer available, and I think the jury is still out on win 10
11:41 am
crosshair
10 is looking promising, but i would let the early adopters get the bugs out before jumping to it
11:41 am
cybernan
I just hope that win 10 will be compatible with win 7 within the home network
11:42 am
crosshair
it will be, and it is going to be a free upgrade... initially
11:43 am
cybernan
it couldn't be worse than win 8 -- even the early version
11:43 am
crosshair
Seems you will be able to upgrade to the core win 10 for free, but after that you pay extra for the "bells and whistles"
11:44 am
crosshair
We shall see.
11:44 am
cybernan
bells and whistles? - probably stuff I don't want anyway
11:44 am
crosshair
I have 8 on these school computers and it drives me crazy
11:47 am
crosshair
win 7, win 8, and win 8.1 will get the free upgrade. The jury is out still for those with earlier operating systems, so it says.
11:48 am
cybernan
wouldn't upgrade the win 7, but possibly the 8 -- is this ms's way of getting testers?
11:48 am
crosshair
I will be in not hurry whatsoever to dump my beloved win 7

better the devil you know?
11:53 am

I will let win 10 roll out, let the dust settle for a few month, then start reading the reviews. What they often do not bother to mention with these new operating systems is how much of a resource hog they are when installed on older systems
11:55 am
cybernan
I need to get a new 10 or 11 inch notebook for travel, so waiting for win 10 to come out before that. Will have to buy it before september, though

If you are cool with a 10 inch display for a notebook, i highly reccomend any of the acer transformer line. I have one and my beloved has one. You can get up to 16 hours of run time with the tablet portion inserted in its keyboard docking station
11:57 am

My wifes transformer is almost 4 years old and still going strong
11:57 am
crosshair
mine is 2 years old

I have the transformer infinity, but you can get a transformer prime or a first gen transformer t-100. i mostly use mine in tablet mode. I only use it in conjunction with the keyboard docking station when i am travelling
12:02 pm

They are adndroid os , however, but i love it.

sorry, cybernan.. My transformer has a 35 gig solid state hard drive, but has its own micro sd card port on the tablet portion. The kayboard part has a sd port and two usb ports, so you can add all kinds of storage at need

huge difference for me using the iTouch indoors....much better with low light...

5:14 pm
car.eeyore
I was feeling extremely tired yesterday and was able to sleep, but when I got up this morning...black spot in vision, ears hurt, etc. I laid down for most of the morning and I am feeling better. It is just hard to concentrate. Noise is killing me and the bird is being so loud!

Jaxx, I am sorry you also get them.
5:16 pm

I feel sorry for you car. I have had them since I was 11 and age has not dimmed them. I have given up on medication as it doesn't seem to help as much as lying down and sleeping.

Lying down and sleeping is good. 11! I can't even imagine!

Gwen Foss is the person who posted on FB. what is her babble name. BookDoctorGwen?
5:54 pm

That name sounds familiar, peri
5:54 pm

any clues needed?
5:55 pm
ivesy3
sounds familiar still wouldnt donate.....
5:55 pm
periwinkle
she was posting for a friend
5:55 pm
periwinkle
ok then, bye for now
5:55 pm
ivesy3
oh ok well sorry for their troubles... wish them luck
5:57 pm
Anniebrook
night, peri
6:00 pm
jaxx7
On her profile it says economic difficulties continuing. her name is Gwen Foss. Could it be that she is ashamed of needing help so says it is for a friend?
6:01 pm
ivesy3
could be. i think there was some kind of collection before , where people got burned when money didnt go where it was supposed to
6:01 pm
ivesy3
not for her, someone else
6:01 pm
Anniebrook
Yes, I had donated to that, ivesy
6:03 pm
ivesy3
was supposed to be for mrs p wasnt it
6:03 pm
Anniebrook
I believe so
6:03 pm
jaxx7
Was that on babble itself rather than facebook? Could be that she knows you got burned before.
6:04 pm
ivesy3
that was thru babble i think.
6:04 pm
Anniebrook
It was on Babble
6:05 pm
jaxx7
probably is genuine but I still wouldn't donate without serious thought. On her profile she sells books, perhaps she could be helped that way?
6:09 pm
Anniebrook
Done. Going to watch the news. Have a peaceful night everyone.
6:09 pm

Wise words, Molly. The internet is full of deception.
6:40 pm
MollyL
Liz, I have witnessed some very sad things in regards to money and people who are too trusting. It usually starts out with someone talking about how tough things are for them financially. People just need to be careful regarding those folks that they really don't "know".

Lizlin
ar 6-7 - Begins like upper class people or the Disney movie about cats. Ends in a vowel.
6:42 pm

That's the problem. The people, who are conned are too kind-hearted and trusting. I want to believe good of people but have also seen too many scams on the internet. I hate seeing people being taken advantage of (yucky sentence structure there!)

Hey Une, did you see the "open letter" on the internet from the woman who adopted a formerly abused dog? It made me think of you and your animal rescue friends.

aaawww so glad that poor dog was rescued -- sooo many stories like that -- very hard for me to understand that level of heartlessness

It makes me glad to know about people like you and what you do Une. You are one of the special people. ♥
