2:26 am

sprite

hello my darling, I am cold but otherwise okay

2:26 am

sprite

how about you?

2:28 am

grannyrose

doing well. realised how well i was walking around the house today. it's been pretty cold here too. 1C when we woke this morning.

2:29 am

sprite

wow that is really cold! It is not that crazy here atm, but it seems my system does not respond well to 25C drops in temps in one day, lol. It is trying to convince me I am freezing. I am not. It is at least 15C today

2:31 am

Kamanjah

Please send your cool weather my way! It was 108F on my porch today. Too hot to handle!

2:31 am

sprite

*borrowing some degrees from Kam and sending her some of ours from yesterday* Hi there :)

2:31 am

grannyrose

nah. that's cold in my book. anything below 20C is too cool for my liking... lol... says she who used to be in short sleeves, light weight pants, a bare feet all year around.

2:32 am

Kamanjah

Hi! Good to 'see' you.

2:32 am

sprite

I used to say the temps did not trouble me one way or the other. Nowadays, I am very much aware of them.

2:32 am

grannyrose

hey Kam dear

2:33 am

sprite

how are you doing today, Kam?

2:35 am

Kamanjah

Other than getting overheated several times and watering plants twice, ok. I did see the dentist yesterday and had 4 extractions, so my mouth is sore and I'm on a soft diet. I'm getting implants and bridges and will finally have a healthy mouth again.

2:35 am

sprite

ouch ouch ouch that is scary. But how wonderful to have a healthy mouth in your near future

2:38 am

Kamanjah

I kept putting it off - like for 4 years. Then a couple of teeth started to ache a bit, so I knew it was time to get the whole mess fixed. I found a new dentist, but he's an hour's drive away. He's the first dentist I've seen since I lived in San Francisco who could do an anesthetic shot without it hurting me.

2:39 am

sprite

I am scared to death by dentists.

2:39 am

Kamanjah

Rose, it's nice to hear you are doing well walking around the house.

2:39 am

Kamanjah

Oh, me too, Sprite! But this guy is ok.

2:42 am

grannyrose

thanks Kam. i feel so much better. please forgive me. i have my new diary, and am trying to fill in all the appointments for next year, and the rest of this year.

2:42 am

sprite

lol rose and her squirrels

2:44 am

grannyrose

oh, if i don't sort this all out, i'll be double-booking myself.

2:45 am

sprite

the curse of being popular

2:46 am

Kamanjah

I have to keep a paper calendar too. I'm too klutzy with the phone.

2:47 am

sprite

I have a paper calendar too.

2:48 am

grannyrose

phew, thought i had lost next year's appointment with cardiologist...lol.. so efficient i have already written it in.

2:50 am

Kamanjah

I have to follow up with my doc tomorrow. He did a biopsy 2 weeks ago and it came back as squamous cell carcinoma. I have to get the rest of it removed asap! One of his colleagues is supposed to do it, but no one has called me to make an appointment. I want that chapter behind me!

2:51 am

sprite

that sounds very scary too, Kam

2:52 am

grannyrose

and i am done.

2:52 am

Kamanjah

I freaked out at first, but it was a 3mm biopsy, so it should be easy to get rid of it.

2:52 am

grannyrose

Kam, yeah, i'd freak out too. but prayers that it is still very isolated.

2:54 am

Kamanjah

It should be. It was a 2-month-old spot I was concerned about. I have to have 3 or 4 other small spots checked now. There is no dermatologist around here, so I hope the colleague, who is also an oncologist, can take care of all of the spots.

2:54 am

grannyrose

SCC usually is very isolated. it's the Melanoma diagnosis i'd really freak out from.

2:55 am

Kamanjah

Yes, a bit of research calmed me down a LOT!

2:59 am

sprite

genyus - thinks he is smart but cannot spell

3:07 am

grannyrose

* hugs * honey.

3:09 am

Kamanjah

Thanks, Sprite! Have a lovely day.

3:09 am

grannyrose

catch later you Kam. good luck honey.

3:15 am

Kamanjah

Thanks, Rose. I have 7 to go, then off to sleep.

3:17 am

Kamanjah

And, FWs.

1:44 pm

1:57 pm

cybernan

there is a gn 5-6 combo I can't see

2:11 pm

Kaplan the Magne

Little people in your garden

2:14 pm

Kaplan the Magne

Or a place in Alaska.

2:15 pm

cybernan

ty kaplan - was looking in the other direction -- a duh moment

2:17 pm

Kaplan the Magne

"In the meadow we will build a snowman, and pretend that he is Parson Brown. He'll say are you married we'll say 'no man/but you can do the job when you're in town. For others, the words is imbedded in that lyric.

2:18 pm

Kaplan the Magne

Oh, too late with such cleverness. You got the word.

2:19 pm

Kaplan the Magne

What I always dislike is when the clue is spelled out like "crooked letter, round letter, sometimes vowel" etc. You might as well give the world.

2:19 pm

Kaplan the Magne

I mean the word, not world.

2:20 pm

Kaplan the Magne

But that's just my preference.

2:21 pm

cybernan

lol - don't see the connection to winter wonderland though

2:22 pm

Kaplan the Magne

He'll say are you married, we'll say NO MAN

2:24 pm

Kaplan the Magne

In elementary school we were taught to say "no sir" because "no man" was too disrespectful. That's how old I am. Cheesy Bing Crosby songs in school, and "no man" was offensive.

2:26 pm

Kaplan the Magne

Just say the line out loud and you will hear the word.

2:26 pm

Kaplan the Magne

Slowly

2:26 pm

Kaplan the Magne

My favorite pun is Victorious Egret.

2:27 pm

cybernan

a stratospheric clue :)

2:29 pm

Kaplan the Magne

do I have to find something in stratospheric?

2:29 pm

cybernan

no - just meant it was far reaching or way out there

2:31 pm

cybernan

that's me finished -- hagd :)

3:07 pm
