good morning all
hello
Cass, you there?
*hugs ruby* Hello dear friend. How are you feeling today?
yes I am, sweetie
I just sent Burt off to "adult day care" and it was awful. The housekeeper took him and he really didn't want to go. It was like sending a kid to kindergarten
yeah I expected something like that. Makes you feel rotten, doesn't it? But it is a good thing, trust me. You need it. He needs it. And it will do him good once he gets into the routine.
I had a bad day yesterday and really need the space without him phoning me in the studio and following me around
It is very hard to stay ahead of the pain.
absolutely. Don't feel bad about it, darling. It is really all for the best. You know Burt, he just doesn't handle change very easily. It will pass. *hugs*
you are keeping up with the morphine now, aren't you?
trying, but the side effects are horrible. The nurse is coming today to give me a shot that should help
are the side effects more horrible than the pain?
it's a tossup
that stinks :( I hope the shot will help with that.
the shot cost 349 euros! (plus the nurse visit!)
good grief. It'd better help then!
when is Burt coming back?
At 5PM, the housekeeper will pick him up. I'm not able to walk much because my breathing is so labored. I hope he'll accept two days a week
make him go at least that often, darling. It is not about what he can accept, it is about what is necessary. Even Burt will have to adjust to that. I know it is hard, but you need the downtime.
The program is just twice a week, but I have a lady who comes 5 afternoons for two hours and she makes him stay away from me for an hour
very good. If you don't get the downtime, you will kill him at some point ;)
phantom: ci6ella
Believe me, I've thought of it! Espepcially when he follows me down to the studio after dinner
oh I can easily believe that! Your nerves must be worn thin... and you don't have the energy to spare either. Him being away from you is absolutely necessary. Not just for you. For him as well. Whether he realises that or not.
It's still sad to see him floundering but I have a hard heart! lol
yeah true, it is sad. But the alternative is sadder. That hard heart is a good thing in a situation like this, grin. You just hold on. He will settle in the new routine eventually.
The phone hasn't stopped ringing!
lollll... you shouldn't answer it on your day off!
I'm afraid the nursing home will call and say that he can't stay
all the more reason not to answer it
lol
darling, I have to go. A big *hug* for you and keep that heart hard. You have to put yourself first now. Lots of love!
you, too, sweetie. I'm glad we were "alone" for a change xx

(((saanich))) and hello mother...
and hey all! *waves* down to 46.
hello to all my firends who are here, trying to lutk and otherwise.
hey bugs
Whoops. Using an iPad badly. Nice to see you dar Sannich!
I have to finish this fairly quickly because I am off to a Native Cultural Event tonight.
How is that going, bugs?
Saanich I have been meaning to pick up the phone every day since forever. I am such a terrible friend.
Hello mama.
My training has finished and the set-up begins next Monday. I am looking forward to having ceremony present in my daily life again for the next 4 weeks.
They are making a button blanket to add to the medicine bundle. One button for each life and all the volunteers are to be the ones who sew on a special button or two.
I am so happy you are involved.
well, Grant and I are going to kick back for a while. We have a late night today -- he has a rehearsal and I have a friend to help. See you-all again soon! *Poof*
It will visit 22 more cities before it takes up permanent residence in Saskatchewan
Hugs to you and Grant
I had never heard of button blankets - so googled and saw how striking they are. I assume the buttons are handmade from bone?
HELLO everyone!! I was away from the screen
hi Saan
In precontact time the buttons were made of horn (deer, elk etc) and abalone shell. Today they are ususally just plain white ones because we can't harvest abelone any more. I have some fron the old days so I just want to find them and put them on the blanket.
Hello old friend, saanich!
thanks for the interest lynxx
this blanket is to honour missing and murdered women so the pattern is a tree of life surrounded by hearts and tear but all done in the traditional manner.
hi lynxxx ang bugs! my computer is running really slow, sorry for delays Bugs I have a few abalone butttons you can have
Oh Saanich. Would you like to share one or two? We are creating a piece of heritage for Walking With Our Sisters. You can read about it on Facebook.
mmm sounds like something we should have in Australia ..big focus this year on violence against women and children. We have a problem.
I would even drive down to pick up your buttons this weekend if you want. I would like to invite you to come up and stay with us so you can take part as a visitor as well. Ours in the only community in BC to have the memorial.
not on FB. Yes of course; email address; talk later.
So do we lynxx. Aboriginal women are seen as non-people by many Europeans (a result of government paternalism) and, while some peoples are based on matrilineal lines, they are not always respected by the men in their community either (result of residential schools taking children away from thier families where they were subjected to abuse).
You know you can buy abolone shell buttons on line - and on Etsy as well.
Now when one goes missing the cops and media do not pay much attention. I learned last night that the natives say 40 women have gone missing one one stretch of highway. The cops say the number is 18.
Huh. I did not know that. I just knew they were banned from harvesting since I was a kid, many years ago.
!! how awful. I am not speaking of only aboriginal women here - right accross all areas of society
I have some buttons I have saved from old garments too - I love them but only when I looked at abolone buttons online did I realise what type of shell they were - so thankyou
We have that too lynxx but I believe that our aboriginal women are the most marginalized, along with immigrant women who cannot speak English. THey are also very isolated.

Well, he doesn't like tomatoes and he's none too keen on any sort of lettuce or green leaves. I love cheese and he hates it and so on. really we have little in common how have we stayed wed for 45 years. lol
Well done, peri. I am not doing well with this grid so I am off to my bed. Night all

hi harp
Hi TO and Jane :)
hi, kate
How are you doing today?
actually, I have a chigger bite that's killing me. otherwise I"m fine!
and you?
Another shooting. 6 dead. When will this end?
Pretty well, a bit tired. Think I'll be heading off to bed soon.
oh no cos, where?
Hi cos, did it just happen? copycat?
(puts chigger bits in perspective....()
Louisiana Movie theater. Fox News saying 6 dead but other sources says shooter is dead 20-30 wounded
holy moly
another movie theater...
That really is terrible
did they mention where in la?
Governor is on his way to the site so it must be serious
Lafayette, Louusiana
OMG
I see it all over the news now. Most stations are saying two confirmed dead including the shooter. Many injuires
And there are armed nuts with rifles marching up and down in front of city hall in our town right this moment.
thanks Jane for the update
Are you in Louisiana, cos?
no.. just saying ... ridiculous
when I googled "louisiana shooting" the first thing that came up was a second amendment rally in NOLA.....
"well regulated..." that 2nd amendment?
oop sorry forgot the no politics rule
hy6?
I just thought it was an odd thing for google
hy + vowel + most of not short
maybe because the events are so recent google hasnt had caught up i would guess?
thanks
it's coming up in searchs now.
I found a live feed that is giving updates
oh where harp?
theguardian.com
looks like it happened around 7:30. from the sounds of one report - the police "neurtalized" the shooter.
tyvm! good source too
still.. two lives gone.. even if it was the shooters life.. very sad
the guardian site crashed my computer, many add ons
not much info.. Kate said pretty much it all.. but 2 are dead and 8 seriously wounded
but lafayette, of all places.
where is lafayette?
I guess it can happen anywhere now
louisiana
sw louisiana

How far from NOLA?
2 hours
ah ok I have friends there
give or take.closer to baton rouge, but not close
in lafayette?
no NOLA
not even close. have you ever been in LA?
But I may know a person or 2 in lafayette that name sounds very familar
similar to what?
yes once years ago for a few hours
probably in NOLA then
