Lizlin

Not really here - just popping in and out because I'm converting kindle books into epub ones to go into my ibooks. So I'll be coming and going! Nothing new there!

1:46 am

sprite

did a bit of that myself yesterday. Found a new series that might be fun. Will keep you posted if it is.

1:46 am

Lizlin

Pretty stuck at 80 words but I've got both 8s but only 2 x 7s

1:47 am

sprite

good job, Liz

1:47 am

grannyrose

yay, the friend when you haven't a friend. a clayton friend...lollll

1:47 am

sprite

that one went straight over my head, rose?

1:48 am

Lizlin

This has turned into a major job for me! Sorting out lots of glitches.

1:48 am

Lizlin

Back soon!

1:48 am

sprite

let me know if I can help, Liz.

1:48 am

grannyrose

clayton's was an additive to lemonade to give it a different flavour, without being alcoholic. it was advertised as the drink you have when you aren't having a drink.

1:49 am

sprite

ah! Interesting. Thanks darling.

1:50 am

Lizlin

I wish, Sprite - for some reason lots of the e pub books have gone into ibooks with the author and title mixed up - so I'm having to rearrange that, reconvert the books and reimport into ibooks - very time consuming!

1:51 am

sprite

yeah it is. Callibre seems to do that when converting. I must check and see if those are settings that can be changed.

1:53 am

rururocks

I have my feelers out for one of the 8's

1:54 am

1:56 am

sprite

Five minutes of babbling (well, maybe 10) before I shower...

Back for a bit - Sherrilyn Kenyon reconverting!

2:08 am

sprite

ah, she is good for many fun hours

2:09 am

Lizlin

I loved the books but all the titles and authors were muddled up. Hopefully got it right now.

2:11 am

sprite

I am organising everything very strictly in calibre nowadays. Takes a lot of time but worth it.

2:12 am

Lizlin

Well, in future I will - I have a better idea of what to do.

2:12 am

sprite

yeah, it sure is a learning curve

2:12 am

Lizlin

Back soon - need to retransfer the corrected versions into ibooks.

5:52 am

bichon

stay healthy Ivesy

5:53 am

ivesy3

i know bichon lol! going to be a bubble person

5:54 am

MollyL

I'm sorry Ivesy. We are in a health care crisis in this country, and Odumbacare has done nothing to alleviate that.

5:55 am

ivesy3

its horrible. the premium i have to pay ,for very little coverage. it shouldnt be allowed.

5:56 am

bichon

Molly, some people will disagree with that, but it is not perfect.

5:57 am

MollyL

The insurance companies are holding us all hostage. They should be shut down.

5:57 am

zoozzoom

Do you do any excercises for your dizziness, ivesy?

5:58 am

bichon

Do you have vertigo ivesy?

5:58 am

zoozzoom

That is what I thought, Bichon.

5:58 am

lbdawger

Tadone!! and now must get ready for work. Ivesy, take care and hope the health issues get resolved soon.

5:59 am

zoozzoom

Congrats, Dawg!

6:06 am

nurse1000

ty Zooz.

6:06 am

zoozzoom

Yeah they that is right, Ivesy. He told the guy it was vertigo.

6:07 am

bichon

Go to a physical therapist who specializes in it

6:07 am

zoozzoom

But as he did it more to him..It stopped. I have no idea why.

6:07 am

ivesy3

i will ask my dr about it bich, but doubt new ins . will cover it

6:08 am

ivesy3

i read something about the crystals in the ear being out of whack. so i keep shaking my head back and forth lol

6:08 am

zoozzoom

Some people here in the UK complain about the NHS but it is a fantastic service.

6:09 am

bichon

yes, that's exactly it. There are videos on Youtube demonstrating it

6:10 am

ivesy3

thanks for all the tips! have alot of research to do. the one thing that is good, i cant smoke, it make me dizzy ..lol.. dr. very happy..me.. not so much

6:10 am

zoozzoom

I a happy too that you are not smoking, Ivesy :-)

6:10 am

nurse1000

The Epley maneuver or repositioning maneuver is a maneuver used to treat benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) of the posterior or anterior canals. It works by allowing free floating particles from the affected semicircular canal to be relocated, using gravity, back into the utricle, where they can no longer stimulate the cupula, therefore relieving the patient of bothersome vertigo. No, dont shake head! The above is the way it works.

6:10 am

bichon

You shouldn't smoke in general

6:11 am

ivesy3

oh and if anyone is interested google withdrawal from trans derm scop patch.. unbelievable!

6:11 am

ivesy3

i know... sigh

6:11 am

MollyL

Deep breaths Ivesy, deep breaths

6:12 am

bichon

I stopped over 37 years ago, cold turkey

6:12 am

zoozzoom

Scopolamine?

6:12 am

bichon

6:12 am

ivesy3

ear dr. did that maneuver. guess i wont know if i am still dizzy until i am off the meds.

6:12 am

zoozzoom

Slowly exhale and relax..Ah!

6:12 am

6:13 am

periwinkle

hi all I do not see a woman's name that stars with da6

6:13 am

Marc Freeman

Thanks bichon I just got the clue

6:13 am

MollyL

A lot of people are turning to alternative medicine (the old ways) because drugs and current treatments don't help them

6:14 am

bichon

ty zooz, Molly

6:14 am

MollyL

She was one of the Scooby gang, Peri

6:14 am

periwinkle

that does not help me

6:14 am

bichon

The Epley maneuver isn't alternative medicine as there are no drugs for it

6:14 am

ivesy3

great picture molly.. lol says it all.. course we havent had it too bad here.. but its early..

6:15 am

6:24 am

scouser

To return to La5/10 why cant it have an s for plural?

6:25 am

scouser

To coin a Liverpool phrase "it's dead windee today" !

6:25 am

zoozzoom

No idea I am afraid, Scouser! Maybe it would then just have just one A?

6:25 am

ladycece920

The i is the plual for the root word.

6:26 am

zoozzoom

Not much wind here thank goodness but they do say later it will be gale force here on the coast.

6:26 am

scouser

Thank you ladyc. I forgot the golden rule for Babble - think of the money !

8:34 am

Scrabbler

Scary, Hurshy.

8:36 am

hurshy

the other one was more like a movie, i was watching this man who had set up very strong laws prohibiting homosexuals from being employed - or at least allowing them to be fired - and then he made a friend who was gay and he was like all regretting it and like, there is no loophole, i know, i set it up to be very strong. i think it was like, not set in modern times.

8:36 am

Interesting.

It is fascinating why certain songs appear in our minds. I was singing Yankee Doodle Dandy last week. Why?

8:41 am

Scrabbler

Haha

8:41 am

hurshy

have you ever tried healing via yodel, scrabs? :)

8:42 am

Scrabbler

No, should I try it?

8:42 am

hurshy

maybe with a patient who knows and likes you real well

8:42 am

otherwise they'll just think you're weird

8:42 am

phaeton

what does it heal?

8:43 am

Scrabbler

Darn, lacquer has a c, right?

8:43 am

Scrabbler

Well, most kids just get better on their own. It's the anxious mothers that need our reassurance.

10:47 am

mattygroves

I can't see either of the DA words...

10:48 am

Scrabbler

It is challenging--poverty, ignorance, many no-shows. I want to adopt most of the kids, bathe them, etc.

10:49 am

bichon

I can just imagine

10:49 am

Scrabbler

da + ***er beams can blind pilots + vowel. It is some currency from somewhere.

10:49 am

mattygroves

That's a new word on me!

10:50 am

Scrabbler

But I work in a rural practice where we see the same problems. It is appalling to see the conditions in which kids (and adults) live.

10:52 am

Scrabbler

I cannot understand not aspiring to gain an education and better oneself, or to push your child to aim high. I do not understand parents that do not value education for their kids.
