icky couple of days here... dear friend of many, many years died of a massive stroke and hubby has to have surgery on his other knee.... hope next week improves
oh no im sorry
sorry to hear that volley
It didn't take fatass lol
ty cos... knew him as a child and was friends with his daughter; then actually worked for him for many years in orthopedics
guess the pt wont work either then
will say a prayer dee
guess I should have expected the 2nd knee issue... they are both the same age, so guess they would go bad at same time :)
sorry about all that, dee!
just monkeyed ad4/10 by accident
sorry, Dee. (((hugs)))
torn meniscus again (or at least he thinks so) goes to dr on 5/8
is it an out patient surgery?
probably
good word, cos, ty
thats good then i hope
will probably depend on how bad tear is and what time of day his surgery will be....
wonder if one knee being bad....favored it too much and did damage to other one
i hope all goes ok
dee, thoughts and prayers for you and your friend. it seems such a lot to cope with.
oh and a good friend / neighbor of ours herniated a disc and is on the floor (for 24 hours) til dr can get him in on Mon... what a weekend
ty rose!!
I wondered that, too da4... favored other one while moving and doing too much
phantom: tra la la ♪♫♪ (heehee)
why cant he go to urgent care/walk-in til his dr appt. ur neighbor i mean
has to go to neurologist in town 50 miles away... doesn't want one of the partners, so he is trying to tough it out

hey, just realised i have all the d's and e's....lol

gosh, and I thought I had a rough Sunday, first son managed to blow out half the wiring in the house, then the electric guy broke the main waterline while fixing that, then he fixed the water, and when we turned it on later, we had to get him back for a second leak he missed the first time around! whew

sounds you should have stayed in bed rbud
found the de thx
that stinks rb... sounds awful to me
I wish, I got about an hour of sleep because had to pick him up from the "afterglow" thing at his GF's prom, got to sleep at 6 AM, fun started at 7:15
have had a nap since then, yay
LOL i'm watching "happily divorced" and fran drescher's mother and grandma from "The Nanny" are making guest appearances
how did he blow out the wiring?
well, all he did was put something in the microwave, but I guess we had a little section of mouse-damaged wiring below the kitchen, it fried. Lucky the house didn't burn down!
wow... glad no one got hurt
wow... almost a good thing it happened
darn cats are slacking in their duties, lol
agreed, very glad it wasn't worse. we have plans to rewire and redo the living room floor at the same time this summer, maybe sooner than we thought.
I'm facing surgery too - only other time I've been in hospital was for babies... got a cyst pressing on the sciatic nerve; they want to take it out and fuse the last vertebra
when are you having that done rast?
ouch, rasta, best of luck with that, you must be a little nervous
prob in early June - the pain's receded so I'm going to get graduations done before I become an invalid. Got one getting a PhD...
i keep tryng arial :(
oh, how nice! a proud moment there!
very nice rasta, congrats to him/her?
you WON'T be an invalid... just have to behave and do what they tell you when they tell you
<--- wishes she had stuck it out and got her PhD
yes, we'll have 2 PhDs and an MD - and the last one lives in Paris, not too shabby
wow.... very nice
well done rb
yes, sometimes I wish I'd done PhD too
The kids have eft me in the dust
*left
get your back fixed and go back and get it :)
wishes I finished my degree
was all set up to go to Montana and study for mine, in land reclamation, and then I met Hubby...
but you raised them rasta, and you can be proud of them
me too ru.. going back to school in the fall.
since a job is obviously/clearly not an option :(
sounds interesting rb
yes, that's true. We're doing the mini-farm thing now, though, goats, chickens...
eieio rasta
ooooh A's done sans list.. pretty good
so true flosey
wtg cos
are there any aa's?
yes rb, I was set to go to pharmacy school, met hubby. But despite stellar scores no one gave me money, so it was going to be tough if I chose that path.
no aa words

ty

i always thought fr4/12 was spelled with a T
those darn hubbies can sure alter one's life plan, huh
tell me about it rbud

hey, ruby, if you want a good laugh, go to my chog at 1:10am. and follow the string of comments

when nobody is here, I get a lot of words in, don't land in the PB, but have much less fun!
hand
see? lol
bad ruby!
doing well, thanx my friend. have just been on the phone to mrp. she has to go through so many tests.....and they haven't replaced her pain meds with anything. BUT....i did make her laugh, with my narration of my chog.

yes, I monkeyed it. Too funny word

you are so good, ruby
I wish I could be so clever but trying all possibilities doesn't take so long
now, stuck on the right-hand d
I tried dep***, taking someone's trousers off, but it didn't work
aaah, got it
72 left for later (fat chance!), but now I'll look back for your funny part of the chog
yay, ruby. looking forward to your reaction
that is a hoot! Freudian slips, sure!
I particularly like the alternate spelling. Does the chog usually get bawdy at the flip?
lol, ruby......sure made a lot of people laugh......and, no, my fingernails need cutting....
and found one word for bad hair in all that reading!
time to go and fix grrr husband his Campari!
see you later, sweetie!

mmm.....<wonders if jmc is still pole dancing>???
Oh, she is, i'm sure.
shake shake shake. . .shake your booty
she's probably stuck up it! :)
See!
lol
it may not make me skinny but it gives the fat on my belly something to do
*jiggles*
lolol
i want what jmc's having...she has a lot of stamina, that's for sure! :)
lol
*pours lil some coffee*
i make it kinda strong
that makes me sleep jmc
perfect!!
coffee does???
give her the whole jug!!!
i'm just ignoring her!!
*sigh*
Lill is feisty today.
the two of them hego. . .
coffee makes me sleepy too - or at least very relaxed
lmao......<am having such fun today>
yes jmc.i always thought i was weird until i met someone else who gets sleepy on it too.(and no remarks from you flask)!! :)
It makes me climb walls.
how interesting. . .it doesn't my make me sleepy but it generally doesn't make me stay awake when i want to sleep either
coffee also relaxes my son(he has adhd)
<looking around in astonishment>
AHA!
morning everyone
Hi Crossy
it just gets me going and keeps me going until i decide to stop
the agan so does dexadrine and adderal
hi Cross
hi crossy
hi crossy
howdy hego
howdy jmc
well learn something new every day
hi crossy
my granddaddy drank a coffee right before bed
howdy flask
i,on the otherhand,if i drink more than one cup,i vibrate like a tuning fork
my husband use to drink a pint mug full of coffee, even before bed and could still be asleep within minutes. he drinks tea now
i also stay with tea
me too Crossy
tea will keep me away if it is black tea
I enjoy a cofee in the middle of the day!
drinks tea to ward off JMC.
haha
so,how is this grid today?
lol
i like herbal tea, and you can get so many different ones now which is nice
you hurt me feelings hego
: )
*awake
lol hego :)
not bad crossy.....
Sorry honey.
i prefer green tea
I couldn't resist the straight line.
haha not really hego i knew it was a joke!
but some of the company is a bit iffy!!!!....lol
it's not bad at all crossy
i like green tea with other flavours, not keen on it just on it's own
We are being bad today Crossy.
she had to start again!! :(
i see that:)
but people need to be careful about herbal teas. . .camomill (sp?) is particularly dangerous for people with asthma
<looking around innocently>
*waits for someone to spell the word correctly*
really jmc. i didn't know that
i see by looking in our babble room on fb that even our sainted granny rose was talking da nasty:)
No one believes that Flask.
cammomile
flask you couldn't look innocent if someone paid you
ty flask
I have no idea
i've read that green tea can help ward odd cancer...how true that is i don't know
very true jmc!! :)
there is actual empirical data about green tea and cancer
*off
dn..3 time survivor here..so i would take that with a grain of salt...of course i may have be destined to have it 20 times,who knows?
it is especially good for digestive cancers
I hope not crossy
ah ok,ty jmc
nothing says it works 100% crossy! just that it appears to help
i know the flaveniods in dark chocolate and green tea are what you want
they say anything red is anti cancerous too don't they and garlic i think
a good time to pitch foldathome!
indeed...CHECK MY BIO FOR INFO TO HELP BECOME A FRONT LIKE HELP IN THE CURE FOR CANCER
well, we're not glad you've had cancer crossy but we're very glad that you have come through it and are here with us now :)
line
well saying anything red is a pretty broad idea. . . so red dye no. 1 for example was known to be bad
here-here...ditto!
you kidding,too much to do in life yet lillian
as in red fruit and veg jmc
i have not heard that garlic is wards off cancer, but it does have more different kinds of vitamins
naturally red is okay, It's the dyed stuff that's bad.
well i just am wary of blanket statements
good policy JMC
on a side note,our sister folding site "foldit" had a protein folding breakthrough this summer in a critical aids protein folding session!
tell me a particular fruit or veggie . . . so radicchio? radishes?
beetroot and carrot
there is another site?
in just 3!! week they did the same as 20 years of standard lab work and nailed a good hit
tomatoes!
so the plastic tomatoes that they ship from mexico and spray with chemicals to make them red? haha!
maybe not so much.
that, i don't know jmc, because they are white in the middle so i don't know if they mean red all the way through or what.it's like when we were told to boil veg and then they told us to steam them and now they say boil again!i never know what to believe
crazy, no?
i hate forced veg as it never has any flavour!
well that is why i am so narrow in what i believe. . .
brb someone just dropped something thru my mail slot
common sense and moderation is my credo.
listen for the ticking....
uh oh!
good credo to have hego
worked for my mom for 92 years.
i think it must have worked for my nan too as she is 95 this year
must go. hagd All!!
tc hego
bye hego, nice chatting to you.tc
God Bless your nan Lill.
bye
the sad thing is she is now senile and does'nt know who we are
red bars of doom here, must be time for bed....goodnight all
goodnight lyn. sleep well and tc
am sorry lillian,sometimes reaching the outer edges of old age is not a blessing
my gramma was lucky,she made it to 100 with mind as sharp as a tack.deaf as a post though and wheel chair bound
no, it's not crossy.she is now in a home and always said that she never wanted to go into one
oh wow crossy, that's great.
anyone have ta6?
when iwas younger and worked in an old people home we had a lady who was 100 and never took the lift, always walked up and down the stairs. she was deaf too but as sharp as a tack. she use to have a tot of whiskey before breakfast, another one at 11am, a half pint of lager after lunch and another tot just after tea and one before she went to bed....obviously did her well!lol
kje: add Mr. Gore to the ta4 before it

i am always surprised that people don't set their phones up not to make a sound when they turn on and off. . since you are usually in a situation where you don't want noise and that is why you are turning it off
yay!!wtg kje!!

All things are either sacred or profane. The former to ecclesiasts bring gain; The latter to the devil appertain. -- Dumbo Omohundro
Thanks - I'd tried it, should also have refreshed it - I know that often does it.

No work today, taking a slow morning and will go volunteer with my friends later.

not too bad - have been babbling on and off, lots of interruptions this morning
Too much unstructured, turned down a two-day assignment because it was PE and now worried I can't make up the time this close to the end of the year.
Saw the post about the wind, hope all will be well.
ooh.. one time I took a sub job in PE, turned out to be ARCHERY... never, I told myself, never again..

hello again, 98 this AM
{{crossy}}
(not the temp!)
if anybody sees molly, please tell her that the article about bitey pups was very helpful
Yoo hoo, Ruby. I didn't send you an article about bitey pups : O
I thought you sent me a link called chow welfare/bitepups
it was perfect and good advice
Not me, sounds more like Une or LBD.
well ty to whoever sent it
it was chow-specific
((ruby))
Glad it was helpful. Lots of good suggestions here in Babbleland.

*Waves to the Babble Trapeze Queen*
yaaa! the mrs nook ereader came!! have to love the u.s and canadian postal services as it was shipped march the 6th:(
first time in forever i have not used fed-ex or ups.kind of forgot howe long it takes
I'm so glad I don't have to deal with that anymore. It used to take FOREVER to get packages to my husband, when he was still up there.
that is crazy, crossy!
well i tell ya,for the extra 5 dollars or so,all my stuff is going fed-ex or ups from now on!
*waves back at Molly. Falls off trapeze. Oops!*
I quit sending via anything other than FedEx. I just takes too long.
I was wondering who that was....hello viajes
*Hands Via an ice pack*
Normally I'm strong enough to hold on with one hand while waving, but today I have a cold.
Kindle came from amazon.com in 4 days via USpS and Canada Post
well this nook took ages
but it is a beautiful thing
Lol...at least it was worth the wait :)
for a split second, I thought Molly's "I quit sending via anything..." was about me...
lol
it is the new nook touch..makes my first gen nook look like crap:/
I was dating a guy in Vancouver for awhile, and before he came to visit, he asked if he could have something sent to me so he could bring it home, since it was too expensive to ship it to canada... I said yes and then suddenly I started getting all of these packages...
Nice
Shipping in canada is ridiculous
3xthe cost of US...
a lot of US sites won't ship stuff to Canada at all... I think he was ordering from ThinkGeek
shipping in France is expensive, but very fast
that is why i use biblio.com for my paperbacks and hardcovers.they seem to have no issues shipping to canada
I live on the border..i have a us mail box and i just go pick the stuff up
nice to have that option.2 and a half hour drive to the border for me
nice... do they yell at you when you cross? my ex was from Vancouver and he had dated a woman in Seattle for awhile and because he crossed so often the border people were always suspicious and weird with him
closer to 3 and a half by the time you wind yer way through customs
Good Morning Everyone. Viajes, I was afraid you were going to say the guy was shipping drugs or something!
Yeah...not cost effective that way
howdy nef
hello nef
haha Nef, no, just stuff he wanted... I remember when I visited him I was crabby because my suitcase was so full of crap he'd ordered I hardly had room for my clothing
Lol..nope. Border crossing isnt too bad. I go over once or twice a week
maybe tht's what he had in mind LOL
I usually haven't had problems (I do work in Canada in summers) but one time they took out everything in my car to inspect it, which would have been fine except they put it back with the heavy stuff on top. Fortunately nothing broke...
let this new toy charge and then stuff it full of books for the mrs.good thing too as her 3 year old sony reader is almost cooked
hi crossy, ruby and viaj. Of the number of times I've crossed the border; the one time I was given a hard time by customs was over 2 jars of home-canned pickles I was taking to my sister in RhodeIsland... she was in the Navy at the time and my cousin and I went over the Great Lakes instead of under them.
Vancouver airport took my apple :'(
we've crossed the border to Switzerland maybe hundreds of times and only once, coming back to France, did they take us apart -- and we had a new puppy who had just flown in from Canada
most of the time the Fr border guards are on break
now you know about shipping fruits and veggies viajes...
I was going to eat it on the plane! Worse, they said if I'd kept the sticker on, so they knew where it was from, I could have kept it, but I'd washed it before I left...
I once crossed the border from Quebec to Vermont and they confiscated some fresh peas I had in the car....
I bet they ate it themselves once I was on the plane.
I've wondered about that; do they eat all they confiscate at the airports?
Oops, sorry Via. Didn't mean to take your name in vain.
or in vian
My favorite story though is a friend who tried to cross back in the late 90s, when he was a college stoner. He and his buddy had weed hidden in the car, and the border guys found it and said, "What is this? I can get better weed than this five minutes from here. Take your shitty weed and get out of our country."
@ruby -- probably. And they wash their hair with all of the shampoos...
Bless me Father, for I have sinned. I have lied about what was in my packages to Canada.
that's hilarious via
Don't you know Via, everything is better in Canada. At least that is what my husband claimed : )
it is:))
Jeez Molly, first you trick me into letting go of the trapeze, then you say you're not going to send me anything except FedEx...
well,most of it
not the weather... but I live in Minnesota, so we import your weather anyway
MN 9 months of snow and 3 of mosquitos
the u.s smart phone data packs in the states kick or data prividers arses
not quite true, ruby; it's about 6 months of each!
Binghamton was worse: 10 months of winter and two of gnats
and food is cheaper down there..and books...and medicine...and gas... and houses...
via; I didn't realize you live here! I live in the TC also
Verizon has a Canada plan so I can use my phone when I'm there, without getting a new phone or even changing my number! It's terrific!
and no sunshine
Nef -- hello neighbor!
but they are a gajillion dollars in debt,so dunno what is worse,our killer taxes or that
could I please have the stats for the Z? Last letter for NBT....
don't forget alcohol, crossy. Prices in Canada are criminal!

I am doing well Nef.I started puzzle at 3:30 in the morning when I had insomnia. Now I have just one word left to go.
I don't envy you the insomnia; but I do envy your having 1 word left! :-)
I am finished! I have fireworks! fa 8/65 was my last word.
I'll be here off and on as I work my story of clues for today.

Hello suz01! How are you doing? Welcome to the chat log.
YAY, Min!!!! WTG!!!!
hi min
NEF!!! you're home? are you rested up? sounds like your return was a bit long... ((((Hugs)))) hey all
I have ten minutes to get a few more. down to 74 already
Hello stidmama!How are you doing?Welcome to the puzzle
hey stid and all
I'm home, stid, and very tired today. I learned a lesson on this trip.
or 2 or 3!~ ;-)
hey mcurl -- I have applied for five positions in Yelm... *rolls eyes* am I crazy? It's a LONG drive.
No, not crazy! It's a "foot in the door". I'll keep my ears open; heard we may have some spots due to retirements.
thanks mcurl -- you're closer than those!
how far is it, stid?
Nef - head phones are your friend?
LOL Nef! it's over an hour, but if I go the back road it's very little traffic. What did you learn?
LOL, herin! I should have taken earplugs since my sisters talked non-stop. :-D
*rolls eyes again* and how long have you known these delightful ladies... I fear you may need repeat lessons, Nef... *shakes teacher head sadly* I volunteer to go to Hawaii with you to review... *eager look*
Hi Everyone
me too me too!!!
Hello mcurschool! How are you doing? Welcome to the grid
Hello herinfernallady! How are you doing? Welcome to grid
Hi Mini and thank you for your welcome
down to 60, I need to go into town and pick up Grant -- the productions he was stage managing are over... now he is in the pit (trombone of course) for the high school production the next two weeks.
I learned that: 1) sand can blow into a camera lens and muck it up even if you don't take it to the beach. 2.) sisters don't change; bring earplugs if you want some quiet time. 3.) my older sister snores so loud that I could hear her sleeping on a different floor and with my bedroom door shut; 4.) travel time home should be shorter; not cheaper!
good for you Nef! back soon... *poof*
I'm doing pretty good Min; it's my last night of silence. Hubby and son are nighting over in Pendleton; expect they'll be home before I get off work tomorrow
and stid; I'd love to go to Hawaii; but can't afford it --yet.
That is some SERIOUS snoring, Nef.
Come to AUs
Molly, I had to tiptoe upstairs and shut the door to her room so I could sleep! I asked her the next day about having a sleep study; and she blew me off since she doesn't want to deal with CPAP!
Someday I might do just that, herin. But not at this time or the next several years yet...
I feel like that NEf unless I get a loto ticket
Well since it is May here I have lost 13 pounds since the start of April.
YAY for you, herin! My good news is that I didn't gain weight on vacation! :-)
I truly don't get people who don't want to deal with a CPAP. Yes, it sounds like they are cumbersome and difficult to get used to. But, um, they keep you from NOT BREATHING during the night. And give you good sleep. Like I said, I don't get it.
Or bury siblings in sand?
I had a house mate that needed the CPAP he was horrid snorer and would need a shove if he went quiet too long
I agree, Molly. DH uses a CPAP mask and he sleeps so much better now (and I do too). Plus he feels better during the day too. The technology has really improved over the years; it used to be quite noisy but now the masks are smaller and rarely make noise
herin; all of us agreed that we would not bury anyone in the sand (my younger sis wanted to bury me; she scares me sometimes! ;-)
DH never quit breathing when asleep; but he would snort every so often
Nef, did he have the sleep test to determine whether or not he stopped breathing during sleep?
His sleep study showed that his SaO2 (oxygen in his blood stream) was dropping a lot when he was sleeping; the snorting was due to his CO2 level in his bloodstream was way too high
back. 1 left
Go HarryHood go!
11 left...sorry
I think those sleep studies are invaluable for those who snore loudly at night.
I was concerned, Molly. I'd sit up and listen to see if he was having apnic periods while asleep; but he never did while I listened
You can do it, Harry!
((Nef)) you are the best caretaker. : )
ty for the vote of confidence :)
Molly; you'd probably do the same if you were concerned!
I'm serious, Harry! I just got over half way. And I often chat too much to finish! :-)

I am done with the grid so now I will lend a ha 4/6 with a story of clues.My al5/12 went off this morning at 6:30 and I got ready to go to work. When I got to work I had to deal with my Principal who is an ar 4/4. She wanted me to collect da4/4 on my students previous test scores She needed it for an upcoming audit. I told her I'd given her the information already. She said she lost it & that I had to get the information again.I told her that it takes alot of time to get that information and I had to get my students ready for the state test. She told me fi 4/8ly in her annoying ra4/5y voice that she didn't care.Then we got into a sp4/5. She's so unfa4/7 sometimes.When I de 6/24ed her office, I ra4/4ed and raved about her to my colleague. There is no place I would rather be th 4/5 af 4/7 from her.I couldn't da4/5 away from her office fast enough. I am so tired now I am about to collap 4/5! I'm going to pa4/5 on staying up for flip. I am going to give the computer to my hubby so he can play fa4/8ville and plant some vegetables on his fa8/65.Now that I've done my pa4/5 by sharing my story I'm signing out. Goodbye!
Thank you Mini

Hello jesdraggon! How are you doing? Welcome to the grid
how goes?
It goes well jesdraggon. Finished the grid not long ago and posted a story of clues. I'll be signing off soon to goto bed.
bruce is introducing me to a song that's already being hailed (?) as the worst song of 2012... "hot girl problems"
hey all
hi stid :)
thanks to Min, I have an 8 now. :-)
jes -- budgies are WEIRD
they keep kissing, and canoodling and... *rolls eyes* it's like I never get out of the classroom of adolescents!
hehehe
they have a little nest thingy, and I need to get the special calcium-enriched food I think... birds are surprisingly expensive, pound for pound. I think horses by that measure might be cheaper!
probably. birds are quite high-maintenance.
canoodling?
yes ruru, canoodling.
how offensive
Evening all. May I please have a clue for ra7-40? Thanks
can't they take it in the trees
indeed, I am tempted to get a little flashing red light to put on top of the cage...
rodent + end of italian crime family
ra7 .. mouse like + vowell+ the end of the costra nostra
thanks for that one!
Good morning could I get a clue for ar5/12, please?
ar + headwear
thanks again ruru
Ru, they need to get a nest. : P
Thanks so much, ruru.
boy do I have an icon for granny tonight
she is going to laugh her ass off
*Joke...ala...get a room...since my sense of humor tends to bomb here...
I got it.. it was cute molly
stid just wasn't budging
or budgying as it may be
Thank you Ru. I will let you carry on with your Granny icon placement.
oh.. I can't wait.. she is going to flip
Thanks got it ruru
I hope it isn't a small grid and she finishes early
I have every confidence in you Ru.
i wonder if budgies give nudgies
you will hear the scream from wherever you are molly
and having achieved the low count of 42, I am outta here. sweet dreams all! *poof*
bye stidder
bye, stid, have a lovely evening.
*New thing to write on bathroom walls...Ru makes Grannies scream*
hehehehehe
only two hours and 13 minutes..
two hours and 12 minutes
LOL
heehee..... pe6 is one of my favorite words :)
May I please have a clue for sp7-32? Thanks
greeks from 300
people who live a peasant like life gapeach
a sp7 existence
<---chog killer
Thanks, ruru and jes......does it relate to the sp6 above it? Thanks
no
sp6 is very little
only in that it shares the first few letters.
sp + butt
think about the Greek soldiers that fought to save their city, peach
Or i suppose you could think about it as ending like a scottish plaid pattern...
hi nef :)
Oh, thanks to all of you.
hi jes
would that be spear and sword ri ddled?
hehehe. i suppose it might be, brandyjack
Sorry to be so much trouble.....sinus and allergies have me down....all I can do is breathe through my mouth.....a lot of people suffer with the same thing....we just keep hoping it will get better.
that sounds miserable, peach. Are you using some sort of saline spray or rinse up your nose to losen stuff up?
you look good in braids, brandy
fireworks; last word was na6, pertaining to nasal passages
YAY, jes!!!! WTG!!!
Thanks, Nef. Yes, I've done everything.....I had a cleaning lady here last Wednesday and I made the mistake of turning on the fan so the floors would dry quicker.....well, that just started every dog hair, every speck of dust.
wasn't the cleaning lady supposed to get rid of the dog hair?
(((peach))) I hope you clear up fast!
Yes, but there is was a lot of it and she was in a hurry to get to a meeting....she was here about 2 hours.
Thanks, Nef. Please send energy or prayers....Thanks for caring.
*passes peach a mug of soup*
Thank you jes.
sending prayers and energy to clear your head, peach. And the chicken soup will help too
Thanks so much, dear Nef.
Do need a little food.....brb
I don't know how to do Reiki like you do, peach; but I do believe in the power of prayer and healing thoughts.
Yes, indeed, Nef. I have seen it happen.
:-)
hey all, how's it going?
goes well, viajes. finished a bit ago... holler if you need clues
Thanks Jes! I've got 25... think I can find them all in the next 84 minutes?
absolutely
I don't know... I'm pretty drunk... (not really, just being silly)
heheh
i can clue for drunkenness, i think :)
Nef, "Essential Reiki" by Diane Stein, is the best published information that I have seen. There are three levels of Reiki, my neighbor and I have the first level.....in the book it gives signs and other things. All you really need is "intent". We were taught to say a prayer asking that the higher power use us as a vehicle to send healing to whomever and whereever. There are some surgeons in the northeast (they were on 60 Minutes years ago) and they had two ladies (one on each side of the patient on the little rolling stools holding their hands over the patient.....the doctors said that they found that their patients had a faster recovery and just did better than the ones who did not want it. That was way before I knew anything about Reiki.
I've been double fisting all day Jes... but it's been tea and orange juice
with cinnamon whiskey in the tea, and vodka in the orange juice? :D
once I get over this cold maybe...
heheh. you and peach both, apparently... don't spread it to me!
*hands via a mug of soup*
thank you! I hope it's chicken noodle...
I was at a conference this weekend, and half the people I know who were there have a cold now.
*washes hands before taking soup from jes, so as not to spread germs*
heh. yeah, "con crud" we call that :)
Jes, it works on animals too. I bet you are doing it when you are caring and touching your rescued animals.....flowers too....well, anything that lives responds to the energy, it seems.
Now, I'm craving chicken noodle soup....not a can in the house. LOL I'll ask my friend (she does most of my grocery shopping) to pick up a couple of cans. Good to have in the house anyway.
add lemon to it, peach :)
Really, jes? I would never have thought of that. Thanks for telling me.
it's quite yummy. a couple drops of tabasco can be nice too, and help clear the sinuses
I have a recipe somewhere for really great spicy lemon chicken soup from the Colophon Cafe.
