======================
->  RH> My niece has something similar for a congenital problem all the 
women
->  RH> in my brother in-law's family seem to be born with.  Hers isn't as
-> 
-> Scoliosis? My freshman year college room mate had that, with total
-> spinal fusion surgery. She told me she was in a body cast for a year,
-> flat on her back and did her junior year of high school via a 2 way
-> radio box.
-> 
I'm not sure if it's the same thing. These days they just brace that too.

->  RH> He's not going to feel too good for a while in that thing.
-> 
-> Doing some research, that's what he's concluding now. The back brace for
-> 6-12 months will be he hardest part. It means I'll have to do all the
-> major reaching & bending for both of us.
-> 
That's going to be "fun" too.  
 
-> -> if you got sick, could help cure you. Don't know what wite fuzzies 
could
-> -> be used for.
-> 
->  RH> Me neither, but I don't know what you're supposed to do with
bologna
->  RH> either; you certainly can't eat it.
-> 
-> I'll pass on it. Had some home made venison bologna recently, courtsey
-> of our friends in PA; that was interesting. It tasted better warmed; I
-> fried a bit of it with cheese for a sandwich one day.

Now that sounds like it might be good.  The stuff from the supermarket 
grosses me out.  
 
-> -> We're still playing with it. Lots of little tricks and tips to go 
thru,
-> -> plus trial & error.
-> 
->  RH> Mostly error, if it's me plus a touch screen.
-> 
-> This also has a stylus, one of the major reasons Steve went for it over
-> some of the other versions.

Amen.  And at least yours is calibrated correctly.  
 
-> -> no microwave--yet I understand some really good meals could be turned
-> -> out.
-> 
->  RH> They did indeed.  It helped that everything had to be really fresh.
-> 
-> Yes, and with the cooking facilities they had to work with, some trains
-> were known for their dining cars.

I've been in a few of the kitchens.  Everything was stainless, and designed 
to just be hosed down as needed. 
 
->  RH> Yep - sounds like Louise.  If you're reading a newspaper in the
->  RH> morning, expect to look up and find something furry sitting on the
->  RH> next piece.
-> 
-> My newspaper would be on my lap, with the cat on top of it.

Louise prefers it on the table.  
 
-> -> something else, working in the kitchen, IOW, a lot of time not on the
-> -> computer.
-> 
->  RH> Right now up and down is a problem.  I pulled a stupid stunt 
yesterday
->  RH> and walked around way too much.  I'm paying for it today.
-> 
-> Ouch! My sympathies. I did some major moving of boxes in my sewing room

Pretty much.  I'm a lot number even than usual.  Just try doing stairs like 
that.  Better yet, don't.

-> yesterday & the wrist was feeling it. It's better today but a bit achy
-> yet. Part of that could be from chopping up some peppers & onions tho,
-> prep work for cooking tomorrow for Sunday's Life Group.

Could be.  The weather lately can't have been helping either.
