========================
Howdy Ruth!
-> 
-> ->  hn> I lose track (grin)...next injection on May 28.
-> 
-> -> Wishful thinking.  It'll be here before you know it.
-> 
->  hn> Yep time flies when you're occupied with "stuff"!
-> 
-> 
-> For sure on that one!  I finished my class on Thursday night.  Now I've
-> got to fit a dress bodice Monday and get it cut out before we leave on
-> Thursday. Get back from that on Sunday, have 8 days to sew up the dress
-> for a first fitting.  If all is OK, then another week to finish it off
-> before it gets delivered. Then a week to make some summer outfits for
-> Sarah before we take off again.  I'm not keeping busy, am I?
->
Not much (grin)! Anne gets her next injection
this friday, I've been at the ballpark, Knee 
still hurts. Saturday was a tough day for me
it always is, it's the anniversary of the 
loss of the USS Scorpion SSN 589 with all
hands on board, including one of my friends.
 
-> -> Good, every little bit helps.  Trouble is, sounds like you're 
regressing
-> -> on the knee at the same time her back is progressing.
-> 
->  hn> Sometimes it feels that way and sometimes
->  hn> I feel pretty good. Knee is going to be a problem
->  hn> for a while yet I suppose. I'm not willing to give
-> 
-> Bummer, when you thought you had the answer last year.
-> 
True, but you move on to the next
idea and that's where we are now. 
Nuclear bone scan is our next hope
for finding the "cause" and if we 
do, hopefully it will be something 
treatable.

->  hn> up working at the ballpark even if I have to use
->  hn> a cane to do it. I've cut back quite a bit on the
-> 
-> I know, but be glad it's only a cane, not crutches.  I came into class
-> Thursday night a bit later than I usually do; one young lady was
-> surprised to see me using a cane.  Usually I'm seated & it's stowed
-> before she gets there & she leaves before I do.  I told her I've had it
-> since August of 06. (G)
->
I try not to use mine...and I've only
HAD to use it a few times.
 
->  hn> pain med they've prescribed (vicodin) as it gives
->  hn> me bad dreams (worse than eating spicy food!) and
->  hn> doesn't seem to do much for the knee. The pain may
->  hn> be coming from the bone itself rather than the joint
->  hn> and hopefully the bone scan will give us some info
->  hn> that we can use to treat the problem...whatever
->  hn> it is!
-> 
-> So when is the bone scan set for?  And no eating spicy foods the same
-> nights you use the vicodin. (G)
->
Bone Scan on June 7, the day after D-day
will be Knee day!!
 
-> ->  hn> Went there, and they had ground chicken on
-> ->  hn> sale, so I bought that and made Thai
-> ->  hn> Larb Gai instead.
-> 
-> -> That will work.  I don't have an Asian market in town; need to go to
-> -> Raleigh for that.  We went in on Monday for an appointment for Steve; 
I
-> -> hit up Whole Foods Market afterward.
-> 
->  hn> Ours is BIG, I took Dale and Gail there, they
->  hn> can give you an idea as to just how big it is.
-> 
-> Does it have a rice cake maker like the H Mart that Dale & Gail go to?
-> That thing is neat!  The store is the size of a good sized supermarket.
-> 
I don't know, they used to have a fortune cookie maker
but I don't usually go into that part of the store
very often.

-> ->  hn> the Mexican markets charge quite a bit and
-> ->  hn> the Korean Market has begun to undercut
-> ->  hn> them with the resulting influx of Mexican
-> ->  hn> patrons.
-> 
-> -> That's quite different. Usually Mexican markets aren't that expensive 
to
-> -> start with.
-> 
->  hn> I think the mexican markets got used to being
->  hn> the only places where Mexicans shopped and
->  hn> they slowly raised prices over time to the point
->  hn> they were pretty much equal to the regular markets.
-> 
-> Sounds logical.  Got to have the competition, even if it's the regular
-> grocery store getting in a small selection of Mexican goods.
-> 
-> 
->  hn> Since Pal Do World started to draw off their clientelle
->  hn> they have started to drop prices again..but the
->  hn> folks have found a lot of new food experiences
->  hn> that they enjoy at the Korean markets. Now
->  hn> the Korean market seems to keep an eye on the
->  hn> latino markets and stays a little bit lower than
->  hn> their prices. Seems to be working, every time
->  hn> I go to the Korean Market, I see more and
->  hn> more Latino's there!
-> 
-> Sign of a good thing.  Makes you wonder if some of the Koreans are now
-> learning Spanish to be able to help the Mexicans better.
-> 
GRin, NOpe, but they have started hiring some 
of them!

-> ->  hn> It's like a carnival all summer long! (or used to be)
-> ->  hn> have a good time!
-> 
-> -> We will, once we get thru exams.
-> 
->  hn> Study hard, play hard!!
-> 
-> I'm done; Steve is done with Evangelism & choir.  His Hebrew is a take
-> home; he's almost done with that.  Ethics is in class on Monday;
-> Evangelism is an on line, to be done no later than Tuesday night.
-> 
-> 
Well then, time to Party!
chat with you soon!
