I dislike occasionally having to work all day

6:46 am

Hi everyone...hope you're all well.....

7:25 am

if one can be a miscreant, then why not a creant?

7:26 am

Right? Good morning, Harry.

7:27 am

hi bea!

7:29 am

Hey Harry....I tried that too...lol

7:29 am

66 to go here. I've hit my first wall :)

7:29 am

How are things going in the Zoom Classroom Harry?

7:30 am

The well-achieving kids are doing fine. The ones who had problems in the real classroom are having bigger problems now.

7:32 am

Has your school district talked about what school will look like next year?

7:33 am

no guidance yet. I assume we'll open with some restrictions.

7:33 am

I'm giving my ap chem kids some periodic table face masks

7:33 am

as a parting gift

7:33 am

LOL! That's cute.

7:36 am

2/3 done! bbl

7:44 am

I'm finding it interesting how people are "expressing themselves" with face masks.

7:48 am

How are you today, Molly? What is the weather like?

8:00 am

Our weather here is pollen

8:02 am

We have a generous supply too, Bichon!

8:03 am

I think our yellow season is over. The pecan trees are dropping their fronds now...

8:03 am

The palate is itchy and sneezing up a storm

8:04 am

grren haze on the windshields

8:04 am

*green

8:27 am

We have had pollen for weeks. First the trees, now everything else. There is a little sunshine but it looks like a lot of showers for us this week.

8:27 am

We are expecting rain all week. It is windy today.

8:28 am

I think our weather is residual Arthur stuff.

8:28 am

Same here Bea. s Arthur parked along your coast?

8:30 am

hello all

8:32 am

we are getting rain from Arthur in my area of nc

8:34 am

For me this is the best week of the year as my kolkwitzia amabilis (aka beauty bush) is in full bloom, stunning and smells heavenly! I'm gazing at it now out my back window.

We got hammered with like 3 hours of thunderstorms last night. Very heavy rain too.

8:36 am

Ooh ick

8:36 am

Those are gorgeous. No wonder they call them beauty bushes.

8:36 am

had a flash flood watch or warning until Friday night I think for pars of nc

8:36 am

Carla, you are in SC correct?

8:37 am

I'll put up a pic of it on my profile...

Yeah, I got one for Huntersville last night for the next 3 days I think

Yes, bea, we are on Lake Murray near Columbia

8:37 am

Bet that was fun in your RV.

8:38 am

Bea, I am in tears laughing at the new icon.

I couldn’t go to sleep. Mr. Homie left the kitchen window open which isn’t normally a problem but he put the awning in due to the wind. I got up at some point and there was a ton of water everywhere.

8:39 am

=)

The site next to us has 2 tents, 2 couples with 2 kids under age 4 and 2 dogs. Surprisingly they are not packing up to leave this morning.

8:41 am

I remember tent camping during a heavy storm. They evacuated the campground, but we were a little off trail...

8:41 am

Hey, even a lot of quarantine would not make me want to tent camp in the rain.

8:41 am

Especially with kids.

8:42 am

One of our first camping trips. Wake up in the midle of the night. Son is wheezing and crying. We quickly got out of there.

8:42 am

That was back when I was young. We had six between three couples.

One time we went tent camping with cub scouts. We had 2 cots - Mr. Homie slept in one and the boys in the other. I was on the ground in a sleeping bag and woke up in the middle of a thunderstorm in water and lightning just right there.

8:44 am

Sharing a tent with my then 10 year old niece... "I'm scared of the dark, auntie," quotha, then promptly fell asleep and left me lying there listening to the thunder and being terrified myself...

I think I’d rather tent camp with kids than dogs during storms.

8:45 am

...In the end my parents who were ensconced in their VW Westphalia poptop invited us to move in and sleep on the floor...

8:46 am

Thank god for doggie thundershirts!

Bea, did you get your fish today?

8:48 am

First thing!

Yay!

Y can’t I find more than one y?

8:50 am

ya4/6 ... Katherine Hepburn used it in The Philadelphia Story to describe her old yacht .... and the y5 comparative

8:51 am

YA 4,4,6,6

8:51 am

ya4/6 ... sewing material ... and a y6 ... the person who makes the ya4(?)

I found 2 textile ones after I said that so I have 3 now

8:52 am

ooh dose, I thought I was the only one who remembered that line: "My, but she was ya4,6!"

8:52 am

ya4,5,4,6,6 actually

8:52 am

.... ya6 ... rhymes with idle noisy taling in a group

Need the last 6 I reckon

8:53 am

hi all

Got it, thx all!

8:53 am

Hello,JMC! I hope you are keeping well?

8:56 am

Greetings, all.

8:56 am

well enough zooz

8:56 am

Hello, Judi!

8:56 am

Good morning, Judi.

8:57 am

I would say that ya6/24 is a person who tells tall tales

8:57 am

hi judi

8:58 am

... that's too easy a straight line ... I refuse to take it ....

I just assumed it was one who works with ya4

8:58 am

oh come on dose. . .

8:59 am

'spinning a tale' that's the origin...

8:59 am

Hi all again...

8:59 am

probably right nata

8:59 am

hi flask

8:59 am

.... there must be something about the president that could be said but which would cause serious offence to some

9:00 am

ah well there is that. . . even I keep my mouth somewhat shut. . . although no one would be surprised about my politics

9:00 am

say anything you like... just open the border so I can go help my son move from Montreal to Toronto...:-(

9:00 am

Hello, Flask.

9:01 am

I hear he is taking anti malaria tablets to stop covid now.

9:02 am

a lot of people in Kenya are, too. But then it does help them not get malaria as well.

9:02 am

Can't hurt, might help, zooz.

9:02 am

it could affect his heart if he has one

9:02 am

... it took two memeber of parliament to help someone get across the border to visit her dying mother ... ... and he's not going to be allowed across the Ontario Quebec border anyways although maybe the Quebecois are only concerned about keeping the henglish out ... not in

9:02 am

Absolutely can hurt Judi... sudden cardiac death, blindness...

9:03 am

actually they are very bad for your heart Judi especially for overweight senior men

9:03 am

As long as you spray them with disinfectant first, Judi.

9:03 am

lol zooz

9:04 am

bleach zooz

9:04 am

which is why I for one don't believe he's actually taking it. I think he's just saying it to goose sales of a drug in which he has a vested financial interest

9:05 am

EEk. Well, maybe he is planning a trip to an area where malaria is present. Personally, I. Don't. Care.

9:05 am

... I thought that too ... but must admit that his financial interest in the drug is infinitesimally small

9:05 am

Probably that as well, Jmc knowing trump.

9:05 am

but who knows... another possibility is, he's tested positive and they're trying to conceal it as it would send the stock market into a tizzy

9:05 am

(becoming a conspiracy theorist in my dotage)

9:05 am

... a tizzy up or a tizzy down?

9:06 am

I would think, down initially... Wall Street never had a problem with his administration

9:07 am

I think a tizzy is a fit. Spiral is perhaps a better word when referring to the wonky stock market.

9:08 am

Natasha are you on a Mac? I think that is why your profile is showing up changed in chat but still you and your son ONLY GIANT when you click on it.

9:08 am

... ah well ... there's three quarters done ... back for the list later ... luck to all who continue the struggle ....

9:08 am

My profile shows as changed? I tried uploading the kolkwitzia pic but it said no dice so I abandoned it.

9:09 am

I think you might be in some kind of profile picture limbo

9:09 am

But now I see it did attempt to upload it, only gigantic

This is a tough one today. Still have 57 left and no prospects.

9:10 am

I'll try to fix it.

9:10 am

You can do it, CArla!

9:10 am

But to answer your q, no, I'm not on a mac

9:10 am

I just wanted to let you know. Some people don't care and leave their pictures giant.

9:11 am

Hey now... maybe Natasha believes bigger is better.

They say size doesn’t matter

9:12 am

g'morning. any clues for the R in bottom row? ty

9:12 am

I found the R's to have a bit of a kick to them...

9:43 am

the a's are bugging me right now

9:45 am

Those are all the usual suspects except for the one that sounds like a liquor.

9:46 am

I didn't know the Hindis made liquor. What do you know.

9:49 am

never had a buddah bomb?

9:51 am

i cant find the en 7 let alone the re 9. ugh. any help welcomed.

9:51 am

9:52 am

9:59 am

That's called language, mkg.

10:01 am

we 6 and 7 is that a combo?

10:01 am

Sigh...sometimes I think we should just spell out the words.

10:02 am

Ml

10:03 am

mlf, do you have any other strategies for finding words, besides asking for clues?

10:05 am

good morning all :)

10:07 am

the we 6 & 7 are not related, mlf

10:11 am

the we7 goes with the we5

10:12 am

morning all

10:13 am

... big blood vessels

10:14 am

ty dose.....I thought I had already done that word.:)

10:15 am

... do that regularly myself ... twice so far this grid ...

10:16 am

That is why it helps to use the list. You can keep track of what words you have and don't have.

10:16 am

can I please ask for a clue for re9?

10:17 am

Clued in great detail at 9:53

10:17 am

would someone please tell the genious that who is there to serve world interest, not american interest

10:17 am

sorry - tuned into cnn right noe

10:17 am

*now

10:18 am

I think that comment is referring to WHO the World Health Organization. If you read it as "who" it makes no sense.

10:19 am

yes - not very good at going to caps in here

10:19 am

Thanks Molly!

10:22 am

10:31 am

i have always wanted to own a rabbit

10:31 am

I've had a couple in the past, among a menagerie of many other animals

10:31 am

owning rabbits is a hare-raising experience

10:31 am

kind of would like one of those giant rabbits

10:32 am

mool what type of rabbits?

10:32 am

there's a few giant breeds

10:32 am

they're bigger than a cat

10:32 am

or can be

10:32 am

Owning rabbits will give you a bun for your money

10:32 am

and very small breeds too

10:33 am

yes

10:33 am

mool have you owned any in the US/

10:33 am

no, was back in NZ

10:34 am

10:34 am

i don't know much about those

10:34 am

had lots of animals here, was married to an exotic animal vet for several years

10:35 am

omg! so she took the animals with her?

10:36 am

nah, New York pretty much put an end to the animals, though I did have the Chinchillas, a canary and some fish in PA

10:36 am

10:36 am

but have had several species of bird, snake, lizard as well as several mammals

10:39 am

they each had enclosures

10:39 am

oh too cold

10:39 am

10:40 am

I used to have a friend whose boyfriend had snakes. It was disgusting watching him feed them.

10:53 am

lol - it wasn't that much when we bought it in Amsterdam several years ago -- finished it on my birthday - sorry

10:54 am

Evening all. Just a hello from me :)

10:54 am

hi matty

10:55 am

now - back to looking for my hat diner

10:55 am

foie de canard is illegal here in California

10:55 am

a lot of people decided they can liver without it

10:56 am

you need to move up here, ru -- this is made in Quebec

10:56 am

I think it's offal (awful)

10:56 am

yeah.. how about you and your husband adopt me?

10:56 am

lol matty

10:56 am

have you ever had it, matty?

10:57 am

matty congrats to you and your daughter on the addition ot the family:)

10:57 am

I've had foie gras (but I was trying to make a pun ... and failing, clearly! :) )

10:57 am

matty doesn't know how to brioche the subject nan :D

10:57 am

Thanks ML! I hope to be able to meet her soon

10:57 am

I guess it's just the way I was bread

10:57 am

I have never been able to figure out why we can have foie de canard, but no foie gras (unless you are in Hungary) --- I would much rather get rid of the geese!

10:58 am

Too bad it isn't made from Canada geese -- you wouldn't even need to force feed them.

10:58 am

(holds back peta protesters from Nan's house*

10:58 am

matty is she home yet?

10:59 am

Oh yes - ages ago - she's doing brilliantly. She's like any other newborn baby. And she's beautiful

10:59 am

There are a lot of worse things around to protest -- we can't all be vegans

10:59 am

yes she is beautiful! Glad she is doing well

11:00 am

11:02 am

12:16 pm

really! did he have any trouble uploading?

12:17 pm

ty vic got them

12:17 pm

Nope, seemed okay. Although he didn't think he did as well as he'd like. We've had 3 AP's taken in our house, and so far they've all worked okay. 3 more to go (I have two kids taking them.)

12:17 pm

great!

12:18 pm

one of my students had trouble. all others OK

12:18 pm

Yeah. They were a little stressed about it, having heard stories. Anyway, I saw earlier you said you gave students periodic table masks, which is very cute!

12:19 pm

Haven't yet received them - I hope they get here in time!

12:20 pm

It's a crazy end to the year, for seniors especially, so it's a nice gesture from you, and I'm sure they'll appreciate it.

12:23 pm

12:24 pm

You can cut the tension in the air with a knife in the Vicuna household.

12:26 pm

My son did US Hist & Computer Science on Fri and has English or Language or whatever tomorrow. (I think). He was mad that they wouldn’t let him take more than that at the beginning of the year so he had to do Honors Physics instead of AP

12:27 pm

gosh. i remember when vi's kids were little...

12:27 pm

where is he going next year?

12:27 pm

Lol. Actually, we're holding up pretty well, partly because it all seems sort of unreal. But yeah, we'll be glad when they're all finished. Daughter did US history last year as a junior. So that's one we don't have to worry about this year!

12:28 pm

Hey hurshy, yup. The Twins of Glory! =) And now they're off to college next year -- always assuming, of course, that anyone will be off to anywhere in the fall.

12:29 pm

my daughter is also supposed to begin college in the fall

12:29 pm

Mine is a junior

12:30 pm

And son did lang last year, now that I think about it. Where will she be going, Harry?

12:30 pm

Sounds like a good time to gap year

12:30 pm

binghamton in NY

12:32 pm

Both my boys are Sept birthdays and the school start date was Oct 16 so we held them both back. So mine should’ve been a senior this year.

12:32 pm

Heh. Yeah, carla, but they've actually said they may have to limit people putting it off a year because so many people may be wanting to do it.

12:33 pm

I just watched a zoom recording which says that requests for deferrals are not up from average

12:33 pm

Interesting, harry

12:33 pm

my daughter is on a gap year right now - plans kind of got interrupted...

12:34 pm

have a mtng in 20 min - gotta grab some lunch. hagd all

12:34 pm

My older son just finished his freshman year in college. I feel bad for him.

12:34 pm

Ah, NY state seems like they'll be handling the reopening in a reasonable manner. Anyway, I hope so, because son will be in NY, too, at Vassar. I'm surprised about the deferrals. Enjoy lunch, Harry!

12:44 pm

I had a feeling we were going to start seeing things like this..."The Center for Disease Control now says that infected surfaces are one of the less common ways that corona virus spreads."

12:51 pm

Aerosols. Person to person. I don't think 6 feet distance, indoors for any length of time, is all that safe.

1:07 pm

cart

1:10 pm

When will it be safe? I'm just curious when people are going to decide for themselves to start living life again.

1:11 pm

And why are we wearing latex gloves and slathering disinfectant on everything if surface contact is not a way that the virus spreads?

1:16 pm

Clue for the te 7/32 please

1:17 pm

Tare

1:21 pm

A rolling server that you put Lipton on

1:22 pm

Many thanks

https://www.webmd.com/lung/coronavirus\n-transmission-overview#1

1:44 pm

So WebMD is right and the CDC is wrong?

2:06 pm

and supposedly their could be another covid 19 coming in the fall

I am crazy. I was hospitalized for pneumonia in March and now I want nothing more than for the hair salon to open.

2:10 pm

yeahi need a haircut too

Next wave of corona spread, I hope I get my hair blown dry first. And my roots. Told you I am absolutely nuts.

2:11 pm

Kaplan can you get any hair color from the stores even if its just the roots that will match or blend with what you have now?

My stylist said she would open for me as soon as Massachusetts gives permission and would even come over to the house, but my husband is against it. I never thought getting my hair done would be a life or death choice. And that I would even consider it is nuts, right?

2:13 pm

wait until all phases are over. less people might be in the salon by then or less chaos at least

I've been doing it myself but am hungry for salon socializing. It's been nothing but family and clients on zoom for weeks. And I can't cut my own long layers. I butchered my husbands hair but he's mostly bald anyway. I told him to just stick an earring in.

2:14 pm

lol

2:14 pm

I cut my husband's hair, just the back.

we try to maintain ourselves. we long for normalcy. it's something we can contro;.

2:14 pm

(he asked me to)

My salon is small. She would have to wear goggles as well as a surgical gown. Why is it even worth it? I wear a mask outside anyway, if I even go out, which I hardly do.

It's like the Village Well.

2:15 pm

i would say wait as long as you can make it easier for everyone

Did you know "normalcy" was not a word till Warren Harding used it mistakenly? The proper word is normality.

i checked with my stylist today. the salon is the size of a postage stamp. i have no idea how they're going to do it and the owner has not communicated to them a plan.

2:16 pm

hmm

My inner English Teacher, already near death because of pronoun disagreement.

2:16 pm

owl, that's not good

of course. but kap, it's anythin ggoes these days, you can make it up. like conversate.

like driving. there's no longer a speed limit, have you heard? i'm surprised people still obey traffic lights.

If I lived alone...my salon is small and well ventilated. I almost died of pneumonia and now I want my hair professionally done, because I want it.

2:18 pm

owl how is she staying in business during this time?

i' will never conversate with anyone. ever.

I still won't use impact as a verb, although someone reminded me that contact was not a verb either.

do not know. very low rent with lots of stylists in small space is profitable.

i worked in government. before that, i was a good writer.

2:19 pm

owl, but they are all not working right now correct?

correct. i have no idea of her finances. perhaps she lives on her husband's salary.

I go every Friday because it makes me feel nurtured after a long week of seeing clients and worrying. It was my only extravagance. I wish I had a family member who could trim long layers.

2:20 pm

sounds like that is a possibility

my stylist made me promise NOT to even attempt to cut my bangs.

2:21 pm

i am wondering about the hair place i go to here. they have different people working there every time i have been there

2:22 pm

owl if you want to know how to do that i think the internet has a tone of videos

i love that fresh out of the salon feeling. but when i was in target and the only root touchup was in my color, i snapped it up. and i feel MUCH better. relatively, speaking.

2:22 pm

that's good owl

My daughter won't do it. I trimmed my bangs slightly, which I knew was risky. And I had this grown out layer in the back so I put it in a pony tail and hacked off part of it.

i have missed nearly three haircuts by now.

2:23 pm

most salons don't use much product or hairspray unless you ask

kap:: you are brave.

2:23 pm

owl i have missed more then that though i don't do it regularly

2:24 pm

Kaplan if you tilt your head maybe people wont notice the bangs lol

I used Loreal permanent dye and am going slightly redder. That's kind of fun. I haven't had a hair styling since the end of February when I stupidly attended a conference in Times Sq and potentially got exposed to this damn thing. The bangs aren't bad, but one side of my hair is longer than the other.

2:25 pm

that is how i cut hubby's hair. He isn't doing that to me i don't want it that short

2:26 pm

kap uggh uneven lengths i know the feeling

why IS it that layers don't grow out evenly? it seems to defy the laws of nature...

I KNEW I didn't want to go to that conference with a 1000 group therapists from all over the world. There was no social distancing. People knew about it but were still in denial. I left after 2 days, and a week later, give or take, boom- hospital for 3 days.

2:27 pm

thats how they get layers i guess

oh my! so you caught it.

2:27 pm

Kaplan ugghh

I tested negative twice but the doctors scoffed at those results. It looked like a duck, walked like a duck. Only th ing is it was bacterial, and antibiotics helped. They threw every medication into the IV- but I hope not the one Trump is taking. May he be blessed with the health he deserves.

glad you are on the mend. how do you feel now?

2:30 pm

but did it quack like a duck?

Then I spent 3 weeks at home in bed, sleeping and watching old episodes (there are no new ones, of course) of Get Smart. Barbara Feldon was and is adorable.

Did I have COVID? A team of doctors don't agree.

2:31 pm

that is a great show!

But I'm back and I want my hair blown dry.

Sorry about that, Chief.

2:32 pm

poor kaplan

i know of someone who tested neg two or three times before he didn't. in hosp with both lungs involved.

KAOS stands for everything dirty and rotten, while Kontrol is on the side of all that is good.

damn it, of course you do! :D

2:33 pm

owl yikes

some local salons here were making up coloring kits with instructions and providing them curbside. but it's not the same.

I know! Why didn't I think of this! The Cone of Silence in the salon!

2:34 pm

i wouldn't do it

TO, where are you located?

don't laugh, i've SEEN that. imagine how HOT you would be? no dryer neeed

2:34 pm

i have a friend whose wife does it at hoem all the time

2:34 pm

home

rings holding plastic like a mosquito net in local salon preparong to reopen.

2:35 pm

i never use a blower

2:35 pm

at a salon yes

I shouldn't do it. But I really want to. Finally the mayor ruled it out, being more stringent than Boston proper, and that took away the agony of the decision.

2:36 pm

are either of you in phase 1 yet?

If I had it done on opening day in a week or two my husband probably wouldn't even notice.

each station enclosed. i wonder how they are dealing with the shampoo girl breathing in one's face?

2:37 pm

she needs a mask on

I think we're in phase one. Phase two was supposed to be houses of worship and salons, because they serve the same purpose, I guess.

can't be worde than gov wolf. we are lumped in with philadelphia. we will never be free.

2:37 pm

we are in phase 1

we are in the red phase. some areas are in the yellow phase. they haven't even worked out the guidelines for green.

and appreantly your local t mobile sotre is essential. go figure.

2:39 pm

si that the first phase ?

i am sorry, fingers have minds of their own today.

The stylists have to wear gowns and goggles. It will feel just like the hospital, but I will look better. I still have the outline of a cut on my face from when I passed out on my floor at home, a day after they wouldn't test me at the ER. I fainted from low oxygen and dehydration, and bacterial pneumonia.

red- yellow-green

Hair colors or codes?

2:40 pm

Kaplan that is terrible

2:40 pm

codes lol

lol codes. none of those colors would work for me.

2:40 pm

we are phases 1 2 3

2:41 pm

by Friday we may be in the phase 2 of this

I know, it was so awful. I was inpatient for 3 days. Half the team wanted me to stay another day for observation so I checked myself out, came home and spent the next few weeks in bed. My daughter said "mom, are you even a person anymore? You just haunt the hallway wearing black pj's.

aw, kap.

2:42 pm

wow

I've been doing box color on my hair for a couple of years. Had just gone to the salon back in Jan or Feb to get blonder than I am comfortable doing myself, so just been touching that up on my own. Am also in the midst of growing my hair longer so no problems there either. I did cut some bangs myself.

Sorry to hear that Kaplan. Sounds awful.

2:43 pm

anyway i am going to go now i might be back.

bye fan.

If I didn't have cover, it would be a strange coincidence. But no one in my household contracted it. Unless they are asymptomatic forever. What is important here is HAIR.

I have to go ZOOM a client.

I meant COvid, not cover but my spellcheck is in denial too.

bye kap. hang in there.

It really tells me what's important in life. It's hair dye. Like Nora Ephron.

2:48 pm

Gosh Kap. Sorry you succumbed to this wretched plague. But I’m very happy to see you came out the other side. Continued good health to you.

2:52 pm

And, speaking of hair.... my hair is at it’s longest since I was in my teens. But, because it isn’t being subjected daily to straightening, curling, pulling, teasing, it’s probably healthier now than it has been for decades. Every cloud & all that.

3:06 pm

9:39 pm

Nef, did you ever read the children's books "The Borrowers"?

9:40 pm

No, nrkii, so I don’t think that clue works.

9:40 pm

darn

9:41 pm

okay, so it's a diminutive of an operatic solo

9:41 pm

two different vowel endings

9:41 pm

Thank you, that may work.

9:43 pm

or google "main character in the Borrowers" but that may make it too easy :)

9:44 pm

And it did! Thank you nrikii

9:44 pm

nrkii, sorry,

10:19 pm

also re 7/36

10:20 pm

hey ya nef. how goes you?

10:21 pm

Doing okay. How about you?

10:24 pm

found out hb was 120. too low for me as i have gaisbok syndrome. started on some ferrogradumet and folic acid tabs and have regained the old spring in my step. i kept falling asleep.

10:26 pm

and i have decided to go ahead with the neuro implant for my pain. my last session on ketamine was not at all pleasant. i utterly trust my pain doc. who is the person who will be putting it in.

10:31 pm

Good luck! I once took care of kids having heart surgery & they used ketamine as 1 of the anesthesias ( back in the early 70’s). It could be very scary for those kids waking up; so I never thought they’d use it on humans aga8n. (My sister is a vet; they use it on horses but they need the horses eyes covered when it wearsoff so they don’t get wild)

10:33 pm

Gaisbok syndrome is related to polycythemia, isn’t it?

10:34 pm

oh ?? so that is why i have to wear a blindfold in hospital?? lolll... just kidding. ketamine is marvelous for the FM pain. but i have now developed a sensitivity to the wretched drug. last time i was so nauseated, and day 2 i was vomiting.

10:35 pm

Yuk!

10:35 pm

yes nef. it is a familial form. not full on like other types. just the very high Hb

10:36 pm

and a propensity to clot quickly. when i have blood tests i.e. a full blood exam, they have to put some into a citrate tube just for the platelet count.

10:37 pm

How high does your hgb need to be for you to feel normal?

am7, please?

10:39 pm

Am cons. dble. Vowel + Brit’s bye

thanks

10:40 pm

YW

10:40 pm

i can function reasonably well on 140 - 150. which as you know is too high (supposedly) for us females.

10:41 pm

Oh, wow! I rarely get to 12 myself!

10:41 pm

when my father had his heart attack, his Hb was 170. docs were stunned.

10:42 pm

it's hard to make the GP's understand as Gaisbok is fairly ra4.

10:43 pm

Holy Cats!!! I’ve never seen a hgb that high!

10:45 pm

loll...ikr??

10:45 pm

I don’t doubt that there’s clotting problems with a hgb that high!

10:46 pm

absolutely. CVA's, AMI's, loss of eyesight, you name it.

10:47 pm

Pulmonary emboli & dvts too, right?

10:47 pm

at first i was terrified knowing what could happen. i had to teach myself to not dwell on it otherwise i would never have left the house.

10:48 pm

yup....i have been on low dose asprin for years now. it's enough to keep the blood flowing...

10:49 pm

I can imagine it would be scary. How did you finally figure out how to deal with it?

10:49 pm

(Emotionally)

10:51 pm

well taking the aspirin helped. and i modified my diet some, reducing the amount of red meat and leafy greens. my Hb came down from it's top figure to 140 which means i am not in much danger. i just had to get on with like, nef. not think about it too much.

10:51 pm

*life*

10:54 pm

Good for you granny. My old neighbor loved lettuce but was on warfarin & had to limit herself to 3 lettuce leaves a week she told me or her INR would be too high.

11:00 pm

i'm not sure which the hardest to cut back on. i loved my steak and chops. and i adore spinach/silverbeet. when i was a little tacker, if i wouldn't eat, all my mother had to do was serve me a plate of silverbeet. i would wolf it down. strange palate for a kid i know.

11:06 pm

What is silverbeet? I haven’t heard of it? Is it like beet greens?

11:07 pm

let me check...

11:07 pm

stats for bottom middle r please

nef, very similar. more like spinach. you know... Popeye's fave food

11:10 pm

I love spinach myself, but fresh more than cooked.

11:10 pm

i think we call your beet greens red silverbeet over here. silverbeet has a white stalk not red.

11:10 pm

Good night sue. Sorry I didn’t clue; my old lady cat was insisting it was time for her bedtime treats, and she catterwals ifvshe doesn’t get it when she wants.

11:34 pm

haha, I hear that - we have a cat who likes to station himself right outside my closed bedroom door and sing his lungs out if his bowl is even slightly empty.

11:51 pm

This cat is around 19 or 20 years old; we “ inherited” her in 2011 when my hubby’s aunt died; & we’re about the 5th owner that we know of. Aunty had her for 6 years & she’s been with us 9 years now.

11:58 pm

I need to go to bed; Good luck & happy Babbling!

11:59 pm
