parents were alive. Neither phone nor e-mail has changed since then
but > neither are used very often with siblings.
One can breathe a sigh of relief, then!
Ball's in their court--if they haave anything I need to know.
The ball's always in their court, truth be told.
Might be worth trying to get some money sent the way of research.
When the cost of medical research isn't through
the roof any more, or when the funding agencies
start to appreciate knowledge without a dollar
value attached to it. The problem is that these
days money sent the way of research is viewed as a
financial project rather than for the benefit of
humanity or increasing of the knowledge base.
Seems to be that way--unless you have some rare problem that begs to be looked into.
We were originally talking vanishingly rare here.
Betadine is OK (as of now), don't know what others are commonly
used. At > home for small cuts, etc we use triple antibiotic ointment which hasn't > had any adverse effects.
Okay, you get to smell like a clam flat and look like
you have A-1 sauce all over (better, perhaps, than
being as red as a lobster). Lilli presumably can't have
Betadine, though I haven't asked her.
The wrap around the knee keeps the look/smell of the betadine out of
sight or smell. It also prevents me from bending the knee very far.
As we've noted, range of motion is a sometime thing.
Had a check on the knee today--the incision line is healing up but
still > not allowed any therapy until after my appointment next week. How about Krazy Glue for the incision, too?
I understand some surgeons are doing that.
I'll see the doctor later this afternoon for a check on the healing. If
it's not closing up, it may be worth suggesting that or some other form
of closure. When I had the lumpectomies, that's what they used and a
friend in HI had it to close her C-section incision.
It seems easier, and the acrylic is reputed to
be pretty harmless.
The main concern is that it shuts off after
being subjected to harsh magnetic fields or
strong currents for more than seven seconds.
If it senses an external defibrillator, it
gives uo and goes into a sort of turtle mode.
It's MRI safe as well, supposedly.
Probably been well tested before hitting the general market, or
hopefully it was.
Think how embarrassing and profit-draining it
would be if it hadn't been, and that came out.
[on the list]
I presume the list is for September?
What other list is there?
That's only one of a number of lists I keep going mentally, if not
written down.
You didn't catch the implied winky there?
I've seen your write ups. Sounds like some good meals, some
forgettable.
As always. Luckily, the worst ones tend to be
breakfast, which doesn't count anyway. Note to the
wise: breakfast is in no way the most important
meal of the day.
I usually have a light one--yogurt, tea, maybe a bit of cheese and a
piece of toast or hard cooked egg. If I can make it heavier on protein
than carbs, I'm satisfied.
If one were to rustle a cow or plow the back
forty, breakfast might be important. Otherwise, no.
Go for the best of the wurst?
Cheapest, actually, as they tend to taste the same.
If they'd offered Kosher dogs or other garlic
sausages, those might have been a good bet. Or
Leberwurst, that most wonderful of inventions.
I'd go with the Kosher or garlic dogs, not the leberwurst.
I'd go for what you think is the worst wurst.
Not surprised to see fry bread in that area. OTOH, Iowa tenderloin sounds quite different.
Yeah, yeah. As Salt River Fields are at Talking Stick,
which is on the Pima Indian reservation, that's to be
expected. Iowa is a bit of an aberration, but likely
explained as I did recently in a post the other day.
It's the southwest in winter--snow birds are still roosting. (G)
When you were at Huachuca (I almost wrote Huaraches,
my new-found eixalshp being learned by my fingers
as well) did you get to the point where you thought
of yourselves as more permanent than the snowbirds?
but the guy said come back during the game, and I'll
save you some, and he did.
You hit the jackpot there.
Doesn't happen too often, and the same game of
chance doesn't yield as good results later on.
Win some, lose some.
Also: diminishing returns.
