letters on either cp or mac, it has made it much easier to read, so
i thougt i could play on the mote again but i obviously can't. i will
now return to lurking, sigh i have only one clear eye now.
patsy 22567. judithathome - 9/1/2007 4:54:45 PM Well, he DIDN'T go to rehab last night...they have stalled long enough now that they say it may be TUESDAY before he gets the okay from the insurance company (due to the holiday). He is having a bona fide fit over this and is threatening to walk out of the hospital over it, thus losing any chance of the insurance paying for his rehab.
I'm worn down to a frazzle...don't know if I can face three more days of him being angry over things. Not that I blame him but he's being pretty difficult. 22568. anomie - 9/1/2007 8:09:58 PM I'm reading you just fine, Patsy. I would hate to see you stop posting. 22569. wonkers2 - 9/1/2007 9:05:27 PM Hi Patsy,
Have you tried using the control key and hitting the control key on your keyboard to increase the size of the MOTE type? Hang in there! 22570. arkymalarky - 9/1/2007 9:54:59 PM Yes, Patsy, please do! 22571. arkymalarky - 9/1/2007 9:56:59 PM Boy, Judith, it sounds like an endurance trial for both of you. I hope you manage okay and they don't wait until Tuesday to get y'all some relief. 22572. arkymalarky - 9/1/2007 9:57:34 PM Dad's book is reviewed in this month's issue of Leatherneck Magazine. 22573. prolph - 9/1/2007 10:33:42 PM wpnker s2 et al thanks if yoou can figure out my messes i'll keep posting

Well, the rehab people came over and talked to my son and he has gone home and will start rehab on Tuesday as an out-patient.
We bought him $200 worth of food and he is now at home with a well-stocked fridge and freezer and feels so much better now that he has his dog at his side. 22575. arkymalarky - 9/2/2007 12:57:06 AM That sounds much better. 22576. Ms. No - 9/3/2007 8:30:52 AM I'm so glad to hear Leslie's on the mend --- now put that foot up and YOU get better too!!!
Hi Cos!!
Hi Patsy!!
Howdy all!!
22577. Ms. No - 9/3/2007 8:36:06 AM Classes start for me on Tuesday and I'm scrambling to get my laptop loaded the way I want it. Turns out you can't get a new PC anymore that doesn't have Vista. It's taking some getting used to, but I think that's mainly because it comes direct from the factory with a bunch of crap loaded on it that I don't want to have anything to do with.
So I'm going through and disabling and uninstalling all the 30 and 60 day trials of software I don't want. The main irritant right now is that I haven't yet figured out how to strip all the Yahoo insta-crap out of my browser toolbar.
And Vista apparently doesn't like my antivirus software either, but I already kicked Norton to the kerb so I'm waiting to find out what the dealio is with Panda. I have a feeling it's just that they aren't Vista compatible yet.
Not much of a worry at this point. I don't need the laptop to get online since I've got my connection at home. What is cool is that once I get my virus protection up and working there are enough unsecured wireless networks around me that I can get on pretty much anywhere I go. 22578. judithathome - 9/4/2007 3:39:09 AM I didn't understand any of that post, No...computaphobe here. 22579. prolph - 9/4/2007 5:11:47 AM judith at home; i was touchted by your son's having back his dog,
what is the dog's name and bread? you are of couse both on the
morning list- don't stay too long. love patsy 22580. judithathome - 9/4/2007 12:41:40 PM Patsy, his dog is an Alaskan husky named Mallie...because he thought she was a Malamute at first. She has one blue eye and one dark one...I think she's a mix of husky and Malamute, myself.
He can make her "talk" to him...she sounds just like she's carrying on a conversation.
He told me yesterday that he is bewildered as to why he was so hateful and rude while in the hospital...said as soon as he's able, he's going up there to apologize to the nurses on ICU. He did so to me already. ;-) 22581. judithathome - 9/4/2007 1:41:03 PM Well, last week I sent a "cookie bouquet" to the nurses at ICU and now, my son wants me to send an Edible Design bouquet of "fruit flowers" to the nurses at the station where he had a private room for two days.
I've no idea what is in store for the physical therapists once he finishes up with that...but I think he can do that one on his own. 22582. judithathome - 9/4/2007 1:51:03 PM Here are the websites for the two companies:
Edible Arrangements
Cookies By Design 22583. judithathome - 9/4/2007 3:07:46 PM We had breakfast for dinner last night, Arky...you knw what THAT means...I'm having leftover biscuits for breakfast this morning!
Keoni did a casual version of Ronnie's casserole...just did it all in one skillet. Pretty darned good considering he was winging it. 22584. arkymalarky - 9/5/2007 1:56:41 AM Oh yum! I'm full-fledged dieting now, trying to undo the summer's damage. I've about got to where I was in CO.
Great to hear Leslie's doing so much better!
