===========================
-=> Quoting Ruth Haffly to Nancy Backus on 01-07-16  16:24 <=-

 NB>>> message... by the time I could get back to it, no more time for
 NB>>> messaging, so only the two already completed went out...
 RH>> Odd, did you figure out what caused it?
 NB>> Yup... turned out that one of the wires at the pole had broken, so
 NB>> we'd lost half the power to the house... Richard called RG&E, and they
 NB>> came out and rehooked both wires, apparently the other was fixing to
 NB>> go, too... :)  Was fixed quickly enough the same day, thankfully... ;)

 RH> Odd, but fixable. Hopefully you didn't have plans for a day's worth of
 RH> cooking. (G)

Or for messaging... (G)  I had hoped for a little more time on that,
though...  ;) 
 
 NB>> As it turned out, we ended up going to the second hospital (Strong)
 NB>> the day after I wrote that... and got a more careful diagnosis... as
 NB>> I mentioned yesterday, turns out it was indeed a stroke... and what
 NB>> was causing the double vision was that her eyes weren't tracking
 NB>> together... So the eye doctor and ENT are on hold for now again...

 RH> And, since it's been a month, hopefully some improvement.
 
Yes, she's making some definite progress...  Speech Therapist graduated
her on Monday, and the OT yesterday... both said that she'd be able to
continue to improve just from the family/helpers working with her...
 
 NB>> We are indeed doing the rehab at home still... PT twice a week, OT and
 NB>> ST once a week, visiting nurse once a week, and a nutritionist who
 NB>> came to see her and is keeping tabs on things... Maybe not so much
 NB>> answers from them, but at least some work and progress on getting her
 NB>> more stable... ;)   She has a follow-up appointment with the Strong
 NB>> Stroke Clinic this coming week...

 RH> If this is Tuesday, it must be Doctor X? (G)

Or at least therapist X...  ;)  The doctor appointment went well.. only
needs to go back for a followup in 6 months...  :)

 RH> We're catching up on various appointments this month also.

Most of ours are set for the last week of the month, after Lydia
returns, and I'm off the hook more... :)  Although, I do have one middle
of this coming week... :)  One more thing to juggle... ;)

 NB>>> Sounds right tasty, too....  :)  And one of these days, you'll
 NB>>> get to use the crockpot part of the new toy...  ;)
 RH>> I did, for lamb stew on Friday. It works quite well. Steve said that
 RH>> the crock pot part is the same capacity as my big one, being a
 RH>> different shape threw me off.
 NB>> Ah... so not a mid-size, just an extra one...  :)   And now you know
 NB>> that the entire gadget is well-worth the purchase...  :)

 RH> Yes, we took it on the trip so Steve could do cheesecakes for our
 RH> daughters and their families. He also made a yummy chicken cachitori
 RH> for both families.
 
Sounds very tasty... :)  Both the cheesecakes and the cacchitori... :)
And a multi-use device is particularly handy when one is camping and
doesn't have a lot of storage available...  :)
 
 RH>> Yes, but I don't have any whole wheat bread on hand now. Have to get
 RH>> some going, but want to use down the rye and pumpernickel first.
 NB>> Less of a need for the crumbs when you are away, anyway...  ;)

 RH> Didn't need them at all. We're going to eat the 2nd loaf of rye bread
 RH> before I do any more whole wheat, probably next week.
 
All in good time...   :) 

 RH>>> Possibly, depending on what I need crumbs for in the next few
 RH>>> weeks. Not anticipating much of a need, at least I don't forsee
 RH>>> the need. 
 NB>>> One never knows what might be around the corner... ;)
 RH>> That's so true! Another busy week for us, we know that much. (G)
 NB>> Followed by an extensive trip...  (G)

 RH> Done, but still doing the catch up from that.

Yuppers...  :)
