Coffee Break # 97

thanks


I just whacked my head on the corner of my kitchen island...Whoa that hurt....

Watch it with that counter, Jen.....ouch!

Marilyn, I hope you start to feel better very soon. {{{{{{ }}}}}}. Take it easy.

Sorry that you are not well. You know that we are all pulling for recovery. cool room & lots of liquid.

Hope Jen's bump has subsided.
Hope Marilyn bounces back quickly.

Thanks, I'm feeling somewhat stronger today. Iris, the ER nurse told me to drink 8-10 glasses of liquid, which I did yesterday....easier if it's hot! Jen, hope you iced your bump.....

Ya, iced it and took an ibuprofen. Still tender today with a slight bump

As if we have nothing else to do....shelf fell down in the cabinet where I keep my pots, under the cooktop...I take everything out to fix it...only to find out that the entire back of the cabinet has separated(cheap crap cabinets) and now I can't put the shelf back up, guess the countertop is the only thing holding it together

Definitely not your day, Jen? Hope tomorrow is much, much better!

Marilyn, glad to hear you are feeling a bit better. I used to hate drinking water, but now that's about all I drink, and it is much easier to get in at least the 64 ounces each day. Try hard to drink as much as you can, especially if it really is your kidneys. It will speed up a turn-around. Hope you keep feeling progress. Hugs!

Please keep away, Jen! ;)

Hope you're better soon, Marilyn.

Thanks, Louise & Victor......doing well today.....ER called & asked how I was doing....glad I went to hospital in Torrington, not Waterbury.....they wouldn't call if you were the last patient on earth.....Jen....not your best week!

Jen and Marilyn, hope your are both feeling better. Nice that the hospital called. Also a belated response to the death of Victor's Aunt and Jen's DH's uncle. Hope there are wonderful memories to share with those who loved them too. Patti

wow can't believe the er called to check on you - good hospital - glad you are feeling better Marilyn!

I thought that was common practice

It is here....glad your feeling better Marilyn.

Not common practice here that I know of.... keep feeling better!

Whew! DD1 needed oral surgery today to remove her impacted wisdom teeth. All settled in now with percs, motrin, ice, ice cream, pasta,yogurt, and lots of fruit to blend up. DD2 did this last year. She suggested to her sister that she should ask for a smoothie from Starbucks right after coming out. So I did go and marveled at the long line. This is about the only time she gets waiting- on like that. So I WON'T tell her that without wisdom teeth, her IQ ought to drop 10 points, ha ha.

Best to her Rosemary! I was lucky with mine, small and not impacted. My boys not so much.

Thanks for your well wishes....I'm feeling much better today...will see my own doc on Friday for a follow-up.......Hope your daughter is doing OK, Rosemary....my son had that operation also....not much fun!

Thanks. She is a lot perkier tonight. I think complications would have appeared by now. This is one life passage I am not likely to see again. We played scrabble after she got tired of TV, so it was a nice day for me. I have to go back to work tomorrow, and she took the week off.

YIKES AC is down!! Thank goodness for ceiling fans and an open patio door for sleeping...gonna be a looong night!

Too bad we're not closer Ronnie, I'd send hubby over to fix it for ya

Aw thanks Jen, hoping it's just the thermostat.

Not a great time to lose the AC....I'm hoping power grid is able to handle this ridiculous heat.

We got lucky, Lou went into the attic and cleaned out the drip pump something or other and so far so good!

Must have been at least 120 in the attic!

Had to be! I have never gone into my attic......don't like the ladder. Not much up there, anyway.

Is there a way to get rid of the "follow Daves garden" from the left side of the page? Now it cuts off half the posts

http://goo.gl/tnKMW

This class looks like a great way to start making metal garden art!

Gosh! the right side is cut off on most of the threads but not all of them!

This is ridiculous. Very amateurish.

yes, print is better, but left side is white & right side disappears.

Why is the 'home page' fine & the form pages missing the right side?

debi_k I totally agree with you that the "Follow Dave's Garden" takes up way too much room for having nothing below it but empty space. I have plenty of empty space between my ears so I don't need more here on DG.

My journal was a mess yesterday, but better today. So I am holding my breath that they get it back to something workable again. I could care less about the boring banner, but would like Photo's restored to the Journal though they did put them back if you drill down in a search.

Of course I have been begging Terry for some up grades to the journal for years about cleaning up some basic issues that would make it more useful and compliant with standard Botanical usage world wide. It needs to have more search features too like a secondary sort feature. There is a thread in the DG Journals and Diaries Discussion Forum

Wish list: move the print fully onto the screen & let us see what is written. Luckily I don't keep my journal here as I had it long before DG.

I too am having journal problems. I have asked for an update to see what
they can do to fix the journal. I'd like to know if I'm on my own with it. I am imposing shorter margins when
I type
here.

Leah took her first independent
steps last night, both parents and
both grandmas were there to see it
pretty cool

Yeah Leah!

I agree with Patti. It is annoying to learn the correct botanical
classification
of an unlisted plant, add it to the plantfiles, and have them remove the
listing or change it to an incorrect listing without any communication.
Obvious one to see is viburnum plicatum v. tormentosum is not the
same as v. plicatum v plicatum.

If we put in more returns we can understand our posts better!

There is nothing on either side of the posts....are you talking about the opening page? Anyway, the other day, my pages were centered....now they are off to the right.....annoying.

Unfortunately all my devices
Get cut off and can only see half
The post

We are getting good at figuring out the text, but REALLY!

Congrats, Deb!
