'S' no walkers atoll ... one needs an isolated hill to go down if you are anything but bottom end ye need to rise ... a religious fixation with mounds and mounting them ... viewed from the veil how does we get out of this fix? Appears it could be a trap for the shadowy sort ... de Nous? Perhaps Denis an obvious men ass ah??
 
Anyone else have a pair of Super Slider Snowskates as a child?

Yes Justme! So glad someone else understands the wonder and the glory of SSSS. What a ride! Did you get them for a special occasion? Mine were a Christmas gift from the bearded one.
 
Headed out to see "lady in the van" with a good friend tonight.

Always good conversation with her, and we both enjoy Maggie Smith movies. My friend started a book club which has a dozen or so people following my wine nights and euchre nights (thanks Carolla). I went there Sunday afternoon and was introduced to a bunch of bright articulate women. The books so far have been "The Red Tent", "The Girl on the Train" and now "A Fair Country: Telling truths about Canada". I had read the first two previously, but, the latter is new to me.
 
I love the idea of book clubs, Pinga. Glad you found one that suits you so well. I used to lead book clubs when I worked at the Public Library. A friend has suggested I do it again once I retire. I'll see....I loved the variety of opinions, reactions and supporting experiences the group shared.
 
Posted a bit in the Last thread, but will share here too. The nurse I saw is newer, not sure when she started, but she wasn't there a year ago. I think she's still learning some things, she hasn't seen the more concentrated version of the medication, I don't know if she's even done blood product training before. She has said a few things that sound wrong to me.

I get my subcutaneous stuff on Monday. It could have been done today, but the order wasn't put through. I actually didn't do my IV yesterday, going to the 4 days twice in a row (instead of a 3 and 4) as I had hoped I wouldn't have to, but did it before going out for lunch with Chemguy after my appointment. I thought that maybe since today was scheduled I could have done a real subcue shot at the training appointment, but I will do that at home next week.

I'm confused as to how I actually get Firazyr, a new to me option for attacks. It's what my official training was for today. Anyone with a prescription can get 2 free samples from the company. The cost/dose is $2800, lower than what I had seen posted before but still expensive. I do have confirmation from my insurance company that they will cover everything but the dispensing fee. The free doses will be mailed to me. I thought all were mailed, but the nurse said I do the orders through a pharmacy.

I'm a little bit annoyed. The drug company, Shire has a program called One Path that sounds pretty good. They can only go so far without the prescription though, and the clinic hasn't sent anything to them. I actually contacted them shortly after firazyr became an option to get things going with insurance just in case. I contacted them last week to get things set up, the nurse was surprised I did that already, it's pretty common for patients to not even be aware of the them until they contact you because your doctor's prescription has gone through.

Overall, I'm really happy with my new options. Subcue shots 3x a week starting next week. Will still have my IV option for attacks. For a bad throat or abdominal attack or a mild throat attack while out I (will) have firazyr. That's a bit of security to me. No need to mix it up, just attach the needle to the syringe. No need to get a vein. I really like having that quick easy option, especially if a bad throat attack ever springs up on me. Also much easier to carry around. I'll have to figure out when I want to take both with me, but for something like running errands carrying 2 preloaded syringes in a case I can easily throw that into a purse without the need to carry an extra bag. If I'm going to spend the day at my sister's I would probably choose to bring both options.
 
Feeling frustrated. The training wasn't all done when it should have been. I have to go back Monday. I'm really hoping that the order is in right and the correct location, as I do need to have it to learn the mixing.
I think it will be good to actually do an injection at training at least.
Also hoping I can sort things out with Firazyr. The prescription hasn't gone through still, One Path has called a few times. I am getting frustrated. There have been so many mistakes with this clinic, I caught quite a few things at my doctor's appointment.
 
So nice that you & Tab could get together on this visit pinga! Indeed the air was very FRESH today!

I went to a knitting workshop this morning - "Find & Fix" (errors!) with Kate Atherley. It was at my wonderful local yarn store - first time I have been to one of their many workshops. Found it really interesting & now have confidence & methods to fix a good many of those human errors that somehow keep occurring!
 
I went to a workshop on finishing techniques at a local yarn shop a year or so ago. It was a most enjoyable afternoon.. Nice women and lots of fun sharing experiences and ideas.

Carolla, while I was still knitting, if I found an error in an article I was working on, and it was too far back for me to simply unravel, pick up stitches, and redo, I woould take it over to my neighbour. I ddon't know if she had ever taken a course or attended a workshop but she could go back and pick up a single stitch from half way down a sweateer and, using a crochet hook, work that stitch right up to my needles. Great neighbour!
 
Stayed home yesterday. In the evening some of my family came over - sister Suzanna, sister Kae, Kae's husband Stevo, and son Aleo. We had Chinese-American food, and most folks here worked on my mom's 4,000 piece jigsaw puzzle together. Good times.

Seeler for some reason in my mind you once told us that you used to tell people that mistakes were evidence of the love that went into the garment (or something similar). I have repeated this to a number of (mostly beginner) knitters. I wonder who told me this if it wasn't me (it was on here)

However could you equate mistakes with love? Surely love would strive to avoid making mistakes. Love can be seen in someone who forgives mistakes made.

Not sure I agree. Love in something like this is not about achieving perfection, it is about giving of yourself and your talents. Sure you try to do your best for them, but a mistake here and there likely means that you have tried to stretch beyond your ability or comfort zone to do something for them. You know you won't do a perfect job, even can't do one, but you do it nonetheless. Forgiveness for little mistakes is not needed because the gift of you pushing yourself for the beloved is what matters. If they respond with "I forgive you for the mistakes" instead of "Thank you for this gift" that suggests to me that they focussing on the object rather than the love behind it.

Is jigs seeing ... to much movement for Baptists against the Dan Sin of prophecy? The powers of the day hated Daniel and thus the furnace concept ... pyre of thoughts? Here one can purify an alloy intellect ... and also generate slag-eth!

You did recall that alloying was once expressed as "-ite" an itty-bitty detail ... in the gammas of language ... a dark gam bit for those wandering beyond how gram as Eire was put together in stinking form of eliminating so much "other" ....

We agree on the latter part of what you wrote here. I certainly don't think someone should say upon receiving a gift, "I forgive you for this."
