Oh no! I will lift her up on the prayer list at church.

6:18 am

Scrabbler

6:18 am

medusa

Poor little mite. Will keep her in my prayers

6:18 am

car.eeyore

breathe..drink...pee.

6:18 am

ivesy3

scrab mind if i ask you a medical question?

6:18 am

Scrabbler

Yes, please, Car. Her name is Aaliyah and she is critically ill, on a ventilator.

6:18 am

Scrabbler

Sure, ivesy.

6:19 am

medusa

lol car

6:19 am

car.eeyore

How horrible

6:19 am

medusa

Love medical things. I don't know why I have such an obsession with them!

6:19 am

ivesy3

ty.. i have been under dr care for two mos. for dizziness.. dr wants to do a cat scan of my head.and insurance wont approve it. is there any way to get them to change their mind

6:19 am

medusa

goat

6:20 am

car.eeyore

Oh ivesy...I'm sorry they won't cover it. How absolutely stoopid.

6:21 am

ivesy3

i know. dr. cant seem to pinpoint the cause. i have to wear a patch to stop the dizziness.only thing really showin up is a twisted carotid artery

6:21 am

car.eeyore

Have you had an eye exam

6:22 am

Scrabbler

Go to Dent Institute--specialist will do MRI

6:22 am

ivesy3

yes. eyes change becuz my sugar flucuates

6:23 am

Scrabbler

If you see a specialist, the specialist will get approval typically

6:23 am

car.eeyore

OK, but nothing else showed up? CArotid artery stenosis / disease can definitely affect the vision, but so can a change in your prescription.

6:23 am

Scrabbler

Dent Institute has an office in Orchard Park on Southwestern. They will do an MRI in their own office.

6:24 am

ivesy3

ty scrab will mention this to my dr. well i think she is sending me to neurologist.

6:24 am

car.eeyore

Good. That sounds like a great option.

6:24 am

medusa

Hope you get it sorted soon ivesy

6:24 am

Scrabbler

Dent INstitute is all neurologists.

6:25 am

car.eeyore

HOpefully you won't have to wait too long for an appointment.

6:25 am

ivesy3

ok ty. it is very scary not knowing one minute to the next when the dizziness takes over.

6:25 am

car.eeyore

I will be thinking of you, Ivesy, and lifting you up as well.

6:25 am

Scrabbler

You should get in quickly as they have a huge staff of docs.

6:26 am

ivesy3

ty car.. i beleive going to the neurologist will get it approved

6:26 am

Scrabbler

Ivesy, that is where I would go. Please call for an appt this morning.

6:27 am

ivesy3

ty scrab going to go look them up..do i need my drs. approval?

6:28 am

Scrabbler

Probably not.

6:28 am

car.eeyore

ugh...7:30...time to get the second shift up. HAGD everyone. ((hugs)) all around today.

6:29 am

Scrabbler

And I must get going too--must bring garbage and recyclables to end of driveway and then get to work.

7:37 am

Riverdance

Good Morning - yes todays grid has some big bad teeth......struggling to get half way

7:37 am

7:40 am

medusa

I got up late today too. Was wondering why then remembered I took a pain pill for my head yesterday evening then another one when I went to bed.

7:41 am

sprite

one strategy for this grid might be to add the endings to each and every word, don't be afraid to try. -ing, -ate, -ite, -a, -na, -ish.

7:41 am

medusa

I try them all anyway if i see them.

7:41 am

peri, is the Free Store similar to the online local Buy Nothing groups, where people in the same neighborhood post stuff to give away, and post 'asking for' ?

12:43 pm

Uneaixoise

like water full of algae

12:43 pm

bichon

is that the st 8 or the cr 7?

12:44 pm

periwinkle

sort of ch 1212.. one can walk in and take what ever you want. You cannot request something. You can donate only what you are able to carry.

o.k. - I see both clues were for the st8. Thanks.

12:46 pm

it is a great idea. cause there are many people who do not have $ for things especially around the holidays and they had toys there.

12:47 pm

I am missing 4 8's

12:47 pm

ch1212

Peri, is the store staffed by volunteers then? And is the rent donated?

12:47 pm

periwinkle

staffed by volunteers. they were asking for donations to help pay the rent.

12:47 pm

periwinkle

apparently there are free stores in other towns

12:48 pm

periwinkle

the store was very small and I do not think it has been there long

12:48 pm

periwinkle

lots of people shopping but also others like me donating

12:48 pm

Uneaixoise

churches also have free stores . . .

12:48 pm

ch1212

ah... locally, our hardware store owner donated his upstairs attic space for something similar, but items were a flat 25 cents no matter what it was (clothes to tv's).

12:48 pm

periwinkle

none of the churches near me have free stores but they do have thrift stores

12:49 pm

I got burned donating to one church -- I had brought in a bunch of my mom's clothes . . . . a woman came in and took an armload . . . . right after she left, someone told me she does that all the time and sells the clothes for drugs . . . . bummer

12:50 pm

periwinkle

oh, that is a bummer

12:50 pm

Uneaixoise

important to have someone from the community to supervise

12:51 pm

12:51 pm

12:52 pm

Uneaixoise

aaahhh ok

12:52 pm

periwinkle

maybe someplace to volunteer ton Christmas day

12:52 pm

ch1212

gosh, peri, the options are endless! Whatever you're interested in there is an organization, church, or group who would love to have more volunteers, even if you can only donate 2 hours a month.

12:53 pm

Uneaixoise

indeed -- volunteers needed in all areas

12:53 pm

periwinkle

I have volunteered in two food pantries in the past few years.

12:53 pm

Uneaixoise

volunteer to drive elderly to shops? church?

12:54 pm

ch1212

Most states have a 2-1-1 directory now, so give them a try. Dial 2-1-1 and ask them for options in your area.

I run a local online resource directory, and have a page dedicated to volunteer opportunities. Your area might have something similar.

12:54 pm

periwinkle

not really interested in picking up or driving anyone

12:54 pm

Uneaixoise

I have a friend who regularly picks up ladies to take them grocery shopping

12:56 pm

ch1212

Animal shelters, child care, alternative high schools, ESL, local law enforcement, museums, food banks, soup kitchens, clothing banks, thrift stores, local schools.... sewing groups, reading books for the blind on tape ... you get the idea.

12:56 pm

Uneaixoise

5:53 pm

Lizlin

yw - very strange word

5:56 pm

MollyL

We were informed earlier that the composer/gerund word means a man who is spending some time acting single. I'm not buying it though. It's just a weird word.

5:57 pm

Lizlin

Thanks for the info - but definitely just a weird word.

5:59 pm

MollyL

I can see it being some oddball/slang/made-up word...like...my wife is away this weekend so I'm ba7 around...but it's a stretch when it comes to the English language

6:00 pm

penquis

i was surprised to see it in the dictionary...

6:00 pm

Lizlin

That makes sense. Doesn't change my opinion though.

6:02 pm

MollyL

Then again, snog is accepted here and that is definitely an oddball/slang/made-up word. As is arvo.

6:02 pm

Lizlin

We've often said that there's no explaining Enable!

6:03 pm

Lizlin

As for all the multi-lingual words ... Some are in common English usage but others?

6:04 pm

Lizlin

The other week, looking for the word Daven, which Sprite thought I should know (correctly), it just didn't occur to me to think of looking for that word.

6:04 pm

mkg

anyone have a clue for the A words for the A bottom line? under the C?

6:05 pm

MollyL

One of the most commonly used French words by English speaking people is merci. And yet it is not in the archaic, Enable word list.

6:05 pm

Lizlin

ac 5/12 I think - a + vehicle + vowel

6:05 pm

No explaining it Molly!
