*hugs rose* Lovely to see you, my friend.
4:28 am
grannyrose

aha....ruby...my darling xoxoxox
4:28 am
sprite

allo allo, ruby. How are you, and how is Burt?
4:28 am
grannyrose

now where is liz?
4:28 am
rubyfoo

It is nearly 11:30 and I've survived 8 flights of stairs! B.is impossible.
4:28 am
grannyrose

and pugs?? i wanna see pugs too!!
4:28 am
sprite

and our pugs :) Not often that we have the whole clan together, alas.
4:29 am
grannyrose

*rolls eyes* snap sprite....AGAIN!!
4:29 am
rubyfoo

When I tell him to do (or not do) something, he looks at me with hatred
4:29 am
sprite

*giggles* Sis of my soul.
4:30 am
sprite

oh sweetie... it is an impossible situation. Have you looked into institutionalising him at all yet?
4:30 am
grannyrose

darling, it isn't hatred. it's confusion. he really doesn't understand why you are placing these limits on his activities. * hugs ruby and covers her with kisses *
4:31 am
rubyfoo

His daughter is coming on the 20th. I think he would die n a retirement place with his lack of communication skills
4:31 am
sprite

yeah as rose said. Confusion, and he is scared, he is out of control and that frightens him terribly. But it is impossible on you, ruby. Way and way too taxing for you.
4:32 am
grannyrose

ruby, he won't die. you would be surprised how adaptable mo4 nurses are.
4:32 am
rubyfoo

but nobody here speaks English and, even if they did, it wouldn't be loud enough
4:33 am
grannyrose

i know whenever we had to nurse someone whose first language wasn't our language we would ask the relatives to give us a list of phrases so that we could communicate with the patient.
4:33 am
sprite

yeah well, let's face it, ruby, and forgive me for being blunt. But he is in the last few years of his life. If you keep him at home, he will die at home... with you worn down to nothing and him not getting the care he should. And if you have him institutionalised, yes, it will be hard on him. But you can visit often. And he will have kind people around him to care for him, 24/7.
4:33 am
herinfernallady

POUNCE
4:33 am
grannyrose

we also use "flash" cards. printed in capitals which the patient can read.
4:34 am
sprite

hehehe hi lady :) *hug*
4:34 am
rubyfoo

yay!
4:34 am
grannyrose

whoot, another one has arrived. g'day herin
4:35 am
rubyfoo


wait and see what his daughter has to say and when the visiting nurse finally finishes (one of his incisions still has not closed!)
4:35 am
herinfernallady

Hi. I only know 1 Asian saying. One
4:36 am
sprite

yeah, I think it is something to talk over with his daughter. And don't be afraid to tell her you can't do it anymore.
4:37 am
grannyrose

ruby, love, you have to be strong and stand your ground. you are not physically able to care for him. and his daughter has to acknowledge this.
4:37 am
sprite

or what rose says :)
4:37 am
sprite

one Asian saying, lady? Let's hear it.
4:38 am
grannyrose

* giggle * or what sprite says.... * sigh *
4:38 am
sprite

*grins*
4:38 am
grannyrose

in future i will open my mouth and sprite can say what i am thinking...saves some time surely.
4:39 am
herinfernallady

xiexie it means thank you in Chinese. I use it all the time in Springvale. It sounds likE Shay SHay
4:39 am
herinfernallady

Ruby you have to do what is best for you and yours
4:39 am
sprite

careful sweetie, close it before you catch a fly in that mouth...
4:39 am
sprite

nice, lady :)
4:42 am
grannyrose

* gulp * hope that fly was sterilised...
4:42 am
sprite

you know, as well as I do, ruby, that you cannot give Burt the care he needs now. It is simply too much. Even if you didn't have so much pain on the chest. You cannot be there for him 24/7. You have to have some YOU-time and you are not getting it anymore.
4:42 am
grannyrose

where'd our ruby go??
4:42 am
rubyfoo

xiexie to all
4:42 am
herinfernallady

I made the 7 11 ladies day when I said this at Christmas.
4:43 am
sprite

our ruby is wrestling with her conscience. She knows Burt will hate an institution. But she also knows there is no other way left.
4:43 am
grannyrose

herin, will try to remember it. i hope i say it to the correct nationality.
4:43 am
sprite

awwww sweet, lady.
4:43 am
rubyfoo

I have the extra lady who comes in to shower and dress him 3 times a week and gives hi lunch and letts me get out of the house for an hour, even if it's only to go to the market
4:43 am
rubyfoo

That's a big improvement!
4:44 am
grannyrose

yes, dear ruby it is an improvement. but you really deserve much more.
4:44 am
sprite

only to the chinese, rose, lol. To the japanese, you say aringato gozaimasu.
4:44 am
herinfernallady

I just say it as habit in Springvale.
4:44 am
rubyfoo

(the first half was easy) now I have to go and see to himself, because today is a big holiday here
4:44 am
herinfernallady

Ruby sounds like you need some TLC yourself
4:45 am
grannyrose

sprite, not even going to try that one. i think my plate would fall out of my mouth.
4:45 am
sprite

yes, that helps, ruby. But it is not enough. You know you feel resentment every time Burt makes you walk the stairs and does not accept your care. And that is because it is too much for you. Feeling resentment is a sign that you are way, way overtaxed.
4:45 am
rubyfoo

My chest pain is down to a 5 (with meds), so that's a big improvement, too
4:46 am
rubyfoo

It is wonderful to have you all here and caring!
4:46 am
rubyfoo

See you later
4:46 am
sprite

*hugs ruby* Take care of yourself, dear friend
4:46 am
grannyrose

how could we not care, dear ruby? you are our friend.
4:48 am

4:52 am

poor ruby. Well, take your rest while he is asleep.
4:52 am

so true, rose. You would have it arranged in no time. It so helps if you know the lingo and standards.
4:53 am

4:59 am

You thought eating bugs or dogs was weird? Try a “sophisticated” version of boiled eggs: urine eggs, which are boiled for an entire day in the urine of boys under the age of 10. Locals believe they have myriad benefits, such as increasing circulation of the blood. And it’s such a stalwart, the tradition was recognized as local intangible cultural heritage in 2008. That still doesn't make it any less gross.

Bit of an update for something I posted yesterday. A babbler was casting about for her next good read, and I suggested that if she is into Sci-Fi, to check out "Old Man's War" written by John Scalzi. I still stand by this as it is one of the most interesting new Sci-Fi stories that I have come across in a very long time. However, I must give warning before you dive into it that this novel has evolved into a 6 book series as follows: #2: Ghost Brigade, #3 The Last Colony, #4 Zoe's Tale, #5 The Human Division, and pending sometime in 2015 is #6 entitled The End Of All Things. Enjoy!

remember when they had us by the short and curlies before the advent of bank cards and such? Open at 10 am and close at 4 pm --an hour before you got off of work:)
9:45 am

Instead they just charge you high interest on your credit cards.Good job I always pay mine before any interest is added.
9:46 am
harpjane

In the sixties my mom worked at a bank. They stayed open "late" on Fridays...until 6:00 p.m.
9:47 am
zoozzoom

There was an advert on the TV the other day for short term loans..the interest was over 17,000%...these companies should be made not to advertise these sort of loans on TV

Should not be allowed I was trying to say.

11:03 am
MollyL

You live in the silicone kingdom Ru. Unlike other fake stories here, I'm sure you could bounce a coin off of any projectile part.
11:04 am

In the event of an emergency, your playboy bunny will also serve as a flotation device.

11:16 am

Speaking of TC, did anyone watch the recent documentary on Scientology?
11:18 am
Judi

Those folks are sooooo screwed up.
11:19 am
rururocks

no kidding.. I can't believe they steal that much money from people. I'm not clear on how ..
11:21 am
Judi

Sounded like they rely on donations from members. They sure have the IRS snowed. Sure looks like organized crime to me.
11:21 am
rururocks

I think the IRS is investigating removing their tax exempt status.. Did you see how many billions the church has.. with like 50,000 members only?
11:22 am
rururocks

I think many "churches" are organized crime
11:22 am
Judi

I saw about 2/3 of it to the end. Insidious and shady to say the least.
11:23 am
rururocks

yes.. very cult-y
11:24 am

I hope Katie Holmes writes a tell-all book. Can't always believe the press, but it looked like she fled for her life from that marriage.
11:25 am

I always thought Tom Cruise was gay?
11:27 am

Geesh. Who knows? No smoking gun pictures there. Tabloid free-for-all on him, so best to believe none of it.
11:28 am
rururocks

hmmm.. too many rumors out there I guess.
11:28 am
rururocks

I think in Hollywood.. if you're that handsome.. you're branded as gay :D
11:29 am
Judi

More rumors than truth.
11:29 am
rururocks

probably.. at least there aren't any gerbil stories
11:29 am

Especially if you join a culty religion.

11:31 am

11:31 am

Haven't seen any pics of Travolta with a boyfriend either. These folks take so many pics with anyone and everyone. Anyone can photoshop anything.
11:33 am
Judi

I think most celebrities live in a complete alternate reality to begin with. Scarey, sad and amusing all at the same time to us regular schlubs.
11:34 am

I would hate to live like that
11:34 am

Yeah Ru, I take the blame for everything here. If you are not getting enough groans, I'm sure it's my fault. I also kidnapped the Lindbergh baby and was the shooter in the grassy knoll.

11:44 am

11:44 am

And if you are going to refer to me as Queen, you are going to have to pay for another membership and learn to write bad poetry. : P

11:58 am

According to some stories, Hubbard bet some buddies that he could start a religion. The following website has some interesting "facts"; it's hard to separate fact from fiction, but there's enough of it circulating that the whole religion is suspect. http://www.xenu.net/archive/infopack/8\n.htm

Xenu, according to Scientology founder L. Ron Hubbard, the dictator of the "Galactic Confederacy" who 75 million years ago brought billions of his people to Earth in a DC-8-like spacecraft, stacked them around volcanoes, and killed them with hydrogen bombs. Official Scientology scriptures hold that the thetans (immortal spirits) of these aliens adhere to humans, causing spiritual harm.
12:09 pm

wow.. how do intelligent people believe this stuff
12:13 pm

The Church of Scientology forbade individuals from reading the OT III Xenu cosmogony without first having taken prerequisite courses.[35] Scientologists warn that reading the Xenu story without proper authorization could cause pneumonia

I have a friend who says you start life being looked after by parents. If you are lucky you have a few years of living dangerously and then you become parents and look after your kids. The kids grow up and leave home and you are just taking a big breath of relief and your parents become your children.

I am sure he may not have meant it - probably something that was commonly said in his youth. There was an article in our paper about a visting comic's show (we are having the annual comic festival) - the female writer found it offensive that this young male comics show was about the humerous aspects of rape. (she did walk out). I do agree that even if they are only words that they cannot be tolerated.

I did taxes for the last 3 days...I feel ya!
7:20 pm
Nef

DH used TurboTax & his computer died in a lightning storm; we're hoping the new computer can retrieve his info; because (for some reason I can't figure out) he has $1000 less as income than what I came up with ; but we'd pay $14,000 more in taxes.
7:20 pm

If he has an account on TT, then you should be ok...*crossing fingers*
7:21 pm

He does; but (unfortunately) he had ALL of his passwords IN his computer! :-(

oops
7:22 pm

And he has no idea what his TT account , etc. would be. (He has memory issues)
7:22 pm
Pinikula

Perhaps he might be able to contact TT for assistance?
7:24 pm
Nef

Good Idea. We will do that tomorrow. (My brain is dead after trying all day to work on this; he's pretty upset too. I figure some rest & relaxation and sleep should help
7:25 pm

Definitely! You also might consider a tax preparer who files returns for free (like AARP)

I used to do our taxes by myself all of the time; but since he retired and found TT; he does it using that & then I go over it & fix any errors.
7:27 pm
Pinikula

Then you guys have got it made...just give TT a call for login assistance :)
7:28 pm

I figure that we'll get it done on time; and I'll probably have both TT and maybe have someone go over it again if there's still a big difference

Howdy, nef:)
7:50 pm
Bugsaw

I am tired out crossy. We went to Vancouver for the weekend, saw lots of family and ate WAY too much good food. I was happy to be home to Babble and wind down. I hope you all had good holidays too, in whatever way you choose to celebrate.
7:52 pm
crosshair

We did. Had a quiet one at home with just my family. In years past we would gather all the family on this side of the pond together for a monstrous feast, but those are tiring affairs and the family has spread out quite a bit over the years.
7:54 pm
Bugsaw

OUr family is different in that my brother, sisters and I did not get together for the holidays while we were raising kids. It was just too difficult. Now the kids are grown, we are reconnecting and the cousins have more in common now they are adults too. It is fun
7:54 pm
Nef

We only had the immediate family here (6 of us); but this was the first year Ever that I did All of the meal planning, cooking, clean-up; etc. DH wasn't up to it. (He broke a toe on his left foot 2 weeks ago & had carpel tunnel surgery on his right hand Thursday). it was just too much for him to be involved (& he wasn't able to do much in the kitchen; so I told him he had to stay out)
7:55 pm
Bugsaw

Poor DH! a double whammy.
7:55 pm
crosshair

Our rule was that at big feast the cooks never, ever had to clean up. was fair.
7:55 pm
Bugsaw

and poor you for having to do the whole thing. I hope the kids helped with dishes
7:56 pm
crosshair

But an injury will excuse you:)
7:56 pm
Bugsaw

I use that rule too crossy
7:56 pm
crosshair

On a big feast, i invariably use every dish and pot in the kitchen:)
7:57 pm
Nef

That's usually how it works here too; but yesterday was kind of a fluke. The kids did help clear the table; but I told them to keep DH out of trouble (& they took that to heart - maybe too much!)
7:58 pm
Bugsaw

that is the Be careful what you wish for rule in action, Nef. ;)
8:00 pm

Bet you are happy to be back in your own bed, Bugsaw. nothing like your comfy bed after a long trip
8:02 pm
Nef

Very true, Bugs. I'll have to watch *how* I say things in the future I guess.
8:02 pm
Bugsaw

You are correct crossy. It was a nice hotel and we all stayed at the same one so we could visit, drink into the evening and have breakfast together the next day. One sister and her husband stayed and extra night with us too so it was lots of fun the whole time
8:02 pm

A late Crossy tidbit of the day. The Mrs and I watched a real interesting show on the Hebrides Island chain. One part dealing with the Corryvreckan whirlpool was fascinating. Look it up for a real interesting read my friends. it is the third largest of its kind on the planet:)
8:04 pm

thanks crossy. NEver heard of it.

8:09 pm

yup!!!

The main attribution to this whirlpool seems to be a large underwater mount that start 70m below the surface and rises to just 20m below the waves. causing this phenominon

Boring to some, But I love the raw power of nature in its various extremes.

Ripple Rock off Campbelll River was sort of the same thing, I think, They blew up the rock because too many lives were lost. At the time it was one of the world's largest explosions. My father bought a TV just to view it!

You think when you see the water spinning like a stationary tornado, people would know not to swim there:/
