Hello Beck. How are you tonight?

beckdildal (Jun 15, 2009 8:50:22 PM)
hi there, i'm doing ok. hubby is home tonight.

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 8:50:33 PM)
Is he sick?

beckdildal (Jun 15, 2009 8:50:48 PM)
no, just worked a different shift

beckdildal (Jun 15, 2009 8:50:56 PM)
he is making us supper

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 8:51:04 PM)
Ic. Brit isn't going to be on tonight. It is his wedding anniversary

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 8:51:12 PM)
Is he making something good?

beckdildal (Jun 15, 2009 8:51:27 PM)
looks like he is making seafood

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 8:51:38 PM)
Yummy

beckdildal (Jun 15, 2009 8:51:40 PM)
you ever eat scallops?

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 8:52:15 PM)
Once in northern CA I had them and loved them, then a few weeks ago I bought some and they turned out like rubber. I didn't fix them right I am sure

beckdildal (Jun 15, 2009 8:52:48 PM)
you can't cook them very long or they will be like rubber

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 8:53:09 PM)
Well then that is what I did and I paid a bunch of money for them too. lol

beckdildal (Jun 15, 2009 8:53:35 PM)
awww, that's too bad

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 8:53:47 PM)
I thought so too. lol

beckdildal (Jun 15, 2009 8:53:59 PM)
dana cooked me crab legs for my b'day

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 8:54:12 PM)
Wow, he must be a good cook

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 8:54:24 PM)
That I have never had

beckdildal (Jun 15, 2009 8:54:39 PM)
he is very good

beckdildal (Jun 15, 2009 8:54:48 PM)
much better than i am

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 8:54:50 PM)
My husband can't boil water

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 8:54:58 PM)
You are lucky

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 8:55:08 PM)
Or he won't, lets say

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 8:55:26 PM)
When I am sick I get sandwiches. lol

beckdildal (Jun 15, 2009 8:55:28 PM)
my dad never did much cooking either

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 8:55:44 PM)
My dad was a great cook. He did as much of the cooking as Mother

beckdildal (Jun 15, 2009 8:56:05 PM)
where did he learn?

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 8:56:20 PM)
I think he just taught himself. He cooked great chili

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 8:57:09 PM)
After he got very old he started burning things so finally he got a chair and set it in front of the stove so he wouldn't forget.

beckdildal (Jun 15, 2009 8:57:29 PM)
hubby won 1sr place at the chili cook off they had a couple wks ago at work

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 8:58:00 PM)
There were a few times that I would receive a call from one of his neighbors telling me dad had burned something again because the fire alarm would go off and he wouldn't hear it. He was very deaf without his hearing aids

beckdildal (Jun 15, 2009 8:58:11 PM)
oh no

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 8:58:28 PM)
That is great! Wish I had his recipe. Jim loves chili and I do not make good chili

beckdildal (Jun 15, 2009 8:58:33 PM)
at least dad never did that

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 8:58:40 PM)
LOL

beckdildal (Jun 15, 2009 8:59:11 PM)
his chili is way too much work froglady,,lots of chopping

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 8:59:12 PM)
Did I tell you that Jo and I have Skype now. It is so neat

beckdildal (Jun 15, 2009 8:59:23 PM)
do you talk every day?

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 8:59:24 PM)
Oh, no, I couldn't do that

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 8:59:39 PM)
Yes we do. It is just great to be able to see her when we talk

beckdildal (Jun 15, 2009 9:00:02 PM)
how about your other sisters?

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 9:00:10 PM)
She really looks good and has gained a little weight, which she needed to do badly

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 9:00:22 PM)
They don't have Skype. Wish they did

beckdildal (Jun 15, 2009 9:00:39 PM)
sounds like she is being well taken care of

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 9:00:54 PM)
She is for sure, but is really anxious to get her own apartment

beckdildal (Jun 15, 2009 9:01:00 PM)
did she have any more news about getting into an apartment?

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 9:01:28 PM)
The one she applied for last wouldn't take her because she wasn't in the right income bracket

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 9:02:01 PM)
She was going to get hold of someone in social services today to see if they could help her fine a handicapped apt somewhere.

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 9:03:03 PM)
They wouldn't take anyone unless they were low income

beckdildal (Jun 15, 2009 9:03:54 PM)
could she get into Senior Assistance Housing Group apartment?

beckdildal (Jun 15, 2009 9:04:22 PM)
that is what we have here

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 9:04:26 PM)
I think that was what she was going to check into today

beckdildal (Jun 15, 2009 9:05:07 PM)
good, i hope it works out for her

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 9:05:08 PM)
One of the apts was HUD and they wouldn't accept her. Another one was just for low income and the only one who would take her has no vacancies and haven't had for months, but she is on their list

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 9:05:38 PM)
She really needs just to be patient I think

beckdildal (Jun 15, 2009 9:05:47 PM)
i imagine it takes a while

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 9:05:48 PM)
She is perfectly fine where she is

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 9:06:08 PM)
Wonder where everyone is tonight?

beckdildal (Jun 15, 2009 9:06:18 PM)
not sure

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 9:07:03 PM)
They may all be on myMDA. lol

beckdildal (Jun 15, 2009 9:07:14 PM)
one of the myMDA members said they would try get on tonight

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 9:07:24 PM)
Hope they make it

beckdildal (Jun 15, 2009 9:07:31 PM)
i haven't figured out the chat there

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 9:07:53 PM)
I haven't figured it all out either, neither has my nephew, but he is working on it

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 9:08:14 PM)
Did you see that Jim put my picture on that site?

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 9:08:43 PM)
A neighbor went to Afghanistan and brought back that scarf for me. It is so pretty

beckdildal (Jun 15, 2009 9:08:50 PM)
yes i did and you look beautiful in the scarf

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 9:09:01 PM)
Thanks

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 9:09:23 PM)
Cher and I went and got new hairdo's this week end. We had a girls day out and had fun

beckdildal (Jun 15, 2009 9:09:23 PM)
well when you figure itnout let me know

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 9:09:31 PM)
LOL Vice Versa

beckdildal (Jun 15, 2009 9:09:55 PM)
my sis and i went shopping this weekend and she bought me an outfit for my birthday

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 9:10:11 PM)
Great. When is your bd. I forgot?

beckdildal (Jun 15, 2009 9:10:30 PM)
we ate with "the guys" and then split up for the shopping

beckdildal (Jun 15, 2009 9:10:38 PM)
it was last Fri

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 9:10:44 PM)
We went to Chili's for lunch

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 9:10:55 PM)
Ic. Belated Happy Birthday

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 9:11:06 PM)
I had never been to Chili's

beckdildal (Jun 15, 2009 9:11:19 PM)
i've heard of it but never been

reddove (Jun 15, 2009 9:11:23 PM)

reddove (Jun 15, 2009 9:11:35 PM)
hello everyone

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 9:11:36 PM)
Hello there Reddove. Welcome

beckdildal (Jun 15, 2009 9:11:39 PM)
hi there reddove:0)

beckdildal (Jun 15, 2009 9:11:50 PM)
how's it going with you?

reddove (Jun 15, 2009 9:12:01 PM)
I just looked at the clock and said Oh No, I'm going to miss you all again

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 9:12:10 PM)
lol glad you made it

beckdildal (Jun 15, 2009 9:12:24 PM)
good thing you noticed!

reddove (Jun 15, 2009 9:12:28 PM)
lol

reddove (Jun 15, 2009 9:12:54 PM)
how have you 2 been?

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 9:13:07 PM)
I'm good, and I need a new word

reddove (Jun 15, 2009 9:13:40 PM)
how about.... tali.... means 2.... say it like ...... tah-lee

beckdildal (Jun 15, 2009 9:14:11 PM)
been doing good. the weather here has been dry for 27 days, almost a record.

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 9:14:21 PM)
Thanks Reddove

reddove (Jun 15, 2009 9:14:38 PM)
wow, where are you beck? We've been having storms every other day here in Ohio

reddove (Jun 15, 2009 9:14:51 PM)
yw, froglady

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 9:14:52 PM)
The beginning of our Monsoon is officially today, without a cloud in sight

reddove (Jun 15, 2009 9:15:24 PM)
that's because "your" clouds are at "my" house, lol

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 9:15:55 PM)
Reddove you all had a really harsh winter; didn't you?

beckdildal (Jun 15, 2009 9:15:56 PM)
in the pacific nw

reddove (Jun 15, 2009 9:16:24 PM)
yes we did for a change, froglady, had more snow than usual and colder longer into Spring

beckdildal (Jun 15, 2009 9:16:46 PM)
unusual weather for us. it get's dry in hurry round here when it doesn't rain.

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 9:16:48 PM)
Beck, I'll bet my grandson is happy the rain is staying away up there. He did not like the winter at all.

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 9:17:29 PM)
The winters here are so mild so he was spoiled

reddove (Jun 15, 2009 9:17:41 PM)
Have either of you gone thru your MD clinic for a neurologist?

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 9:18:07 PM)
Yes, My MDA doctor is a neurologist

beckdildal (Jun 15, 2009 9:18:26 PM)
no, i have a rehab doctor that i see. my neurologist was with my HMO.

reddove (Jun 15, 2009 9:18:45 PM)
If I was to call my MDA office and request a new doctor, do you think I will have a problem with that?

beckdildal (Jun 15, 2009 9:18:49 PM)
i haven't seen a neurologist for a long time.

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 9:19:27 PM)
I really don't reddove. We only have two MDA doctors here and one of them only sees ALS patients

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 9:19:45 PM)
Do you not like your MDA doctor

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 9:19:56 PM)
I thought all MDA doctors were Neurologists

beckdildal (Jun 15, 2009 9:19:57 PM)
Do you know how many doctors there are at your clinic?

reddove (Jun 15, 2009 9:20:16 PM)
My MD neuro's nurse does not like me and she will not tell him when I've called or she tells him things I never said and it's caused a really big problem for me now

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 9:20:37 PM)
That's not good

beckdildal (Jun 15, 2009 9:20:44 PM)
not at our MDA clinic. we have several rehab docs. my genetic doc is a neurologist, but i only saw him for the genetic testing.

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 9:20:54 PM)
Hmmm

reddove (Jun 15, 2009 9:21:02 PM)
I heard there were 3, includes my doctor. Was told by one of the others that mine was #1 and they went to him with problems

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 9:21:28 PM)
Does he know about your problem with his nurse?

beckdildal (Jun 15, 2009 9:21:28 PM)
Do you have any way of emailing your doctor directly?

reddove (Jun 15, 2009 9:21:45 PM)
yes he knows about it and I don't have an email for him

beckdildal (Jun 15, 2009 9:21:46 PM)
my doc at the MDA clinic tells me to email him any time.

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 9:22:07 PM)
Wow, Beck, that is great. What a great thing to be able to do

beckdildal (Jun 15, 2009 9:22:34 PM)
supper is about ready and i am going to eat with hubby tonight.

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 9:22:53 PM)
I don't blame you Beck. Have a bite for me

beckdildal (Jun 15, 2009 9:23:05 PM)
it's a trade of for being 3 hrs late to my appointment froglady!

reddove (Jun 15, 2009 9:23:09 PM)
before this I had a regular neurologist and he dx me with FSHD, but the MD neuro says that's not so. And the 1st one said there was no more he could do for me so I can't go back to him.

reddove (Jun 15, 2009 9:23:21 PM)
Have a good supper Beck

beckdildal (Jun 15, 2009 9:23:33 PM)
i hope to be back

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 9:23:44 PM)
k

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 9:24:11 PM)
Have you had the dna test for FSH reddove?

reddove (Jun 15, 2009 9:24:39 PM)
the MDA neuro won't let me take it. Says it cost too much and all I have is Medicare

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 9:24:50 PM)
Do you have another clinic anywhere within traveling distance from you

reddove (Jun 15, 2009 9:25:03 PM)
No :(

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 9:25:21 PM)
That is too bad. We have one about 100 miles from here and we can choose where to go

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 9:25:38 PM)
Most of my family come down here because they like the one here better than the one in Phoenix

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 9:26:29 PM)
They don't do dna testing at our MDA clinic either. I think that is not right, but that is the way it is

reddove (Jun 15, 2009 9:26:33 PM)
they took 6 muscle tissue samples on Mar 4 to send to Was DC. They had to be there before Mar 31. Guess what, they arrived late! I signed 9 pages to release them and they were supposed to go out the next day. My MDA doc never did inform me of this

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 9:27:10 PM)
You might like to report this to MDA headquarters. That is not right

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 9:28:19 PM)
MDA headquarters are not far from where I live. I have been there

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 9:28:33 PM)
I got to tour the facility

reddove (Jun 15, 2009 9:28:37 PM)
Not only that, his nurse informed my counselor about it on the same day that she told me they had not heard back from DC yet. She lied to me. I did call MD and they had Dr Neel call me. I told him what was going on and he said he was going to get to the bottom of it. Guess he has not dug deep enough yet.

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 9:29:34 PM)
Maybe it is still being investigated. I hope so. That is discouraging and we have enough other issues to have to deal with such incompetence

reddove (Jun 15, 2009 9:29:35 PM)
Last Monday, this same nurse was to fax an order to my therapy people for a wheelchair evaluation. As of today, they have not received it yet.

reddove (Jun 15, 2009 9:30:06 PM)
I don't even know which type of LGMD I even have!

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 9:30:36 PM)
You might want to call that nurse every day until she does her job properly

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 9:31:19 PM)
Like, is there some reason you haven't faxed the order to my therapist like you said you would

reddove (Jun 15, 2009 9:31:25 PM)
She told my counselor that she had 6 notes "cluttering " up her desk over me! My counselor was sitting beside me and the nurse didn't know it.

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 9:31:54 PM)
What did your counselor say?

reddove (Jun 15, 2009 9:32:16 PM)
I asked the therapist if they would handle it. Told them I needed to know what the nurse says. If she says I never called, then I'm going to dismiss Dr Neel from my case.

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 9:32:57 PM)
I am happy that I have not had your experience with my MDA clinic.

reddove (Jun 15, 2009 9:33:11 PM)
Oh, she never let on that I was with her. She and I made up questions before she called his nurse. That nurse lied to her thru every question. It was disheartening but my counselor says she keeps all notes if I ever need them.

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 9:33:20 PM)
I have, however, had a problem with one of the providers of equipment, but I handled it finally.

reddove (Jun 15, 2009 9:33:34 PM)
good for you.

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 9:34:11 PM)
Have you gone on the myMDA site yet?

reddove (Jun 15, 2009 9:34:13 PM)
So much is negative with this illness and I try to not let it interfere with my "well-being" butttttttttt

reddove (Jun 15, 2009 9:34:24 PM)
yes, I go in there a lot.

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 9:34:40 PM)
Am I your friend?

reddove (Jun 15, 2009 9:34:50 PM)
Always....?

reddove (Jun 15, 2009 9:35:00 PM)
do you mean on MyMDA

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 9:35:04 PM)
I am still trying to learn that site. It is a little confusing to me, but I will keep on until I get it

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 9:35:08 PM)
Yes

reddove (Jun 15, 2009 9:35:17 PM)
are you in there as froglady?

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 9:35:21 PM)
Yes

reddove (Jun 15, 2009 9:35:40 PM)
wellllll, didn't see your name. I will have to find you then.

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 9:35:44 PM)
I don't remember seeing you on there, but like I say, I am still trying to figure it all out

reddove (Jun 15, 2009 9:35:56 PM)
I have gotten some good advice in there about wheelchairs tho'

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 9:35:57 PM)
Do you have your picture on. I do

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 9:36:03 PM)
That is good

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 9:36:09 PM)
Are you getting a power chair?

reddove (Jun 15, 2009 9:36:28 PM)
there is a lady who comes in here and she was talking about the site and I joined it a couple of days later.

reddove (Jun 15, 2009 9:36:37 PM)
I have my picture on mine

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 9:36:52 PM)
I will go on after chat and find you if I can

reddove (Jun 15, 2009 9:37:24 PM)
I have a Hoveround. But I can't use it for over 30 min at a time or my feet and legs swell and if in it longer, someone has to help me stand up because I get so stiff.

reddove (Jun 15, 2009 9:37:45 PM)
I will look for you too, lol

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 9:38:15 PM)
You might want to consider asking for a lift for your chair. I couldn't function without the lift because I can't rise from a sitting position by myself

reddove (Jun 15, 2009 9:38:47 PM)
I can't get up either unless my hips are higher than my knees. Lately that is becoming a chore also

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 9:38:54 PM)
My sister had the Hoveround and she didn't like it because of the foot piece. It couldn't be raised to get out of the chair and was in the way

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 9:39:22 PM)
Then, it is essential that you have a lift on whatever kind of chair you get

reddove (Jun 15, 2009 9:39:41 PM)
I was told about reclining backs, leg and seat lifts

reddove (Jun 15, 2009 9:40:02 PM)
yes, but first I need an evaluation done. Lol, back to square one again

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 9:40:09 PM)
I wish I had one with a reclining back. My sister has one of those and she can take a nap whenever she wants

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 9:40:29 PM)
Well when you get that evaluation tell them you need a lift for sure

reddove (Jun 15, 2009 9:41:05 PM)
My seat swivels to the side but I don't have the strength anymore to pull the lever. I was able to when I first got the chair

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 9:41:06 PM)
I can do almost anything there is to do in my house because of my lift and I do like my independence that I wouldn't have otherwise

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 9:41:22 PM)
Wow, you really are getting weak

reddove (Jun 15, 2009 9:41:36 PM)
My counselor wrote it up that I needed all 3, lol, she said maybe she would get someone's attention that way.

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 9:41:53 PM)
Then, I'll bet you get it. I sure hope so

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 9:42:14 PM)
You will be surprised how much more quality of life you have when you have a little more independence

reddove (Jun 15, 2009 9:42:19 PM)
Oh, froglady, it makes me so mad at myself some times to be this weak. I'm very independent and used to doing all things without help or complaining

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 9:43:04 PM)
Been there done that Reddove. Just hang in and keep on hanging in. I know it is no fun, but it is what it is and life is still good

reddove (Jun 15, 2009 9:43:23 PM)
I sit home a lot because I feel I am such a burden to others. I have to have some kind of wheelchair wherever I go

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 9:43:31 PM)
Me too

reddove (Jun 15, 2009 9:43:52 PM)
Ok, feel better, wado, at least I'm not sitting home alone, lol

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 9:44:15 PM)
I just have fun in my own house. I have a genealogy program and subscribe to ancestry.com. That keeps me more busy than it should

reddove (Jun 15, 2009 9:44:29 PM)
oh I love ancestry.com

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 9:44:44 PM)
Me too.

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 9:45:18 PM)
I also play the harmonica for lung strength. I have Pulmonary Fibrosis in addition to FSH and my breathing is a pain sometimes

reddove (Jun 15, 2009 9:45:27 PM)
The LDS new site, if they have what you are looking for, you can print the document for free

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 9:45:42 PM)
That is great. I did not know that

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 9:45:49 PM)
I haven't been there for a while

reddove (Jun 15, 2009 9:45:52 PM)
OMG, I've never known anyone who plays that instrument

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 9:46:07 PM)
I hear you can download a program for genealogy on that site too. I use Family Treemaker

reddove (Jun 15, 2009 9:46:21 PM)
I do volunteer indexing and arbritration on the LDS site

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 9:46:25 PM)
It is fun reddove

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 9:46:36 PM)
Oh really

reddove (Jun 15, 2009 9:46:49 PM)
I use the same as you do. Yes, they do have one and I downloaded it also. I think I like it better.

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 9:47:11 PM)
That is so neat that you, too, like genealogy

reddove (Jun 15, 2009 9:47:45 PM)
Thru my Indian connections, I just met a guy who is a member of the LDS church and he has a number. I can give him my genealogy blocks and he can help me with stuff that is not privy to the public.

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 9:47:48 PM)
I have ordered the death certificate for my maternal grandfather because I can't seem to find out much about him

reddove (Jun 15, 2009 9:48:02 PM)
I've been doing family histories for about 15 yrs now

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 9:48:03 PM)
That is great

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 9:48:56 PM)
I started doing genealogy when I was a research patient for FSH. They ask me to see how far back I could go to determine who had FSH. That was in 93' when I first started

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 9:49:22 PM)
I meant how far I could go back in my own family

reddove (Jun 15, 2009 9:49:44 PM)
Wow, with all the research I've done on both sides of me, the only other MD patients in the family are ones living now and younger than me, Strange

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 9:50:58 PM)
Your mother or father probably had it but it wasn't probably noticeable. That is what happened to me. It was my mother who had it

reddove (Jun 15, 2009 9:51:15 PM)
History was always my favorite and best subject in school. I wanted to be an archeologist. A girl told me not too long ago that I was living my dream by "digging up family history", lol and I think she is right

reddove (Jun 15, 2009 9:51:33 PM)
The living ones are on my mother's side

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 9:51:44 PM)
Both my parents were tested when I was a research patient and it was my mother. She was devastated, but you would have never know by looking at her that she had it

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 9:52:16 PM)
LOl Your friend may have been correct

reddove (Jun 15, 2009 9:52:44 PM)
I feel bad because I can't really tell my kids what I have,

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 9:53:01 PM)
Speaking of archealogy. They do lots of digs around here because of the Indian ruins

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 9:53:30 PM)
Are you afraid of telling them for fear they will think they may get it?

reddove (Jun 15, 2009 9:53:56 PM)
That is something I would love to do. I would be their best helper because once I got to the ground I wouldn't be able to get up. So, I could dig day and night for them, lol

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 9:54:10 PM)
LOL you are probably right

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 9:54:23 PM)
I found an arrow head in my yard once, and it thrilled me to death

reddove (Jun 15, 2009 9:54:29 PM)
They know I have it but their doctors wanted to know what kind of LGMD and I can't tell them

reddove (Jun 15, 2009 9:54:38 PM)
Oh, that's a great find

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 9:55:07 PM)
My dad bought some property to build a church on and it was on an indian ruin and the county would not let him build on it

reddove (Jun 15, 2009 9:55:46 PM)
They won't let you around here either. The Hopewell Indians were very large here in the 1700's and back

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 9:55:56 PM)
They would let an individual build on it but not a commercial entity and a church is considered that

reddove (Jun 15, 2009 9:56:12 PM)
No one is allowed to build on it here.

beckdildal (Jun 15, 2009 9:56:34 PM)
hello i'm back

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 9:56:48 PM)
One of my ancestral grandmothers lived in the Dayton area in Montgomery County. They went to that country from Delaware

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 9:56:53 PM)
wb Beck

reddove (Jun 15, 2009 9:57:03 PM)
My g-grandmother used to tell how her Mom would give Indians water to drink from her front door. That house is about 6 miles from me. Grandpa would always caution her to not give them whiskey, lol

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 9:57:20 PM)
LOL

reddove (Jun 15, 2009 9:57:35 PM)
Montgomery Co is right up the road from me about 15 miles (and that's Dayton)

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 9:57:39 PM)
Was the scallops good Beck?

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 9:57:47 PM)
Really. Wow!

beckdildal (Jun 15, 2009 9:57:51 PM)
yes, very good

beckdildal (Jun 15, 2009 9:58:07 PM)
and we had a chocolate torte for dessert

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 9:58:08 PM)
I will trade you a jelly belly for a scallop. lol

reddove (Jun 15, 2009 9:58:13 PM)
yes, froglady, I live in Warren Co which butts up to Montgomery

beckdildal (Jun 15, 2009 9:58:15 PM)
lol

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 9:58:16 PM)
Mercy!

beckdildal (Jun 15, 2009 9:58:29 PM)
they were bay scallops

reddove (Jun 15, 2009 9:58:43 PM)
how do you cook those, Beck?

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 9:58:54 PM)
Do you have a fish market there or do you buy them at the local grocery beck

beckdildal (Jun 15, 2009 9:59:13 PM)
the secret to cooking scallops is when you still think they are not done take them off the heat...per hubby.

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 9:59:34 PM)
K. Thanks

beckdildal (Jun 15, 2009 9:59:35 PM)
when you saute them

reddove (Jun 15, 2009 9:59:40 PM)
lol....do you boil them?

reddove (Jun 15, 2009 9:59:43 PM)
oh, ok

beckdildal (Jun 15, 2009 10:00:11 PM)
these were actually frozen

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 10:00:27 PM)
Ic. Schwans have them. Do you all have Schwan's?

reddove (Jun 15, 2009 10:00:30 PM)
I have never eaten them. I figured they tasted too fishy, lol

reddove (Jun 15, 2009 10:00:42 PM)
We have then here, froglady

beckdildal (Jun 15, 2009 10:00:49 PM)
you thaw them out in a bowl of water and change the water a couple times

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 10:01:00 PM)
Hmmmm

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 10:02:07 PM)
And I had tuna for dinner

reddove (Jun 15, 2009 10:02:27 PM)
well, froglady, I'm going to go see if I can find you on MyMDA, lol. You all take care and I'll chat with you soon. Thank you again for the advice

beckdildal (Jun 15, 2009 10:02:38 PM)
how was your tuna fixed

reddove (Jun 15, 2009 10:02:43 PM)

k Reddove. Have a wonderful week

beckdildal (Jun 15, 2009 10:03:07 PM)
you should be easy to find,,lol

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 10:03:24 PM)
I just mixed it with mayo and other stuff like a salad. It was good

beckdildal (Jun 15, 2009 10:03:40 PM)
k

beckdildal (Jun 15, 2009 10:03:54 PM)
we changed to digital here

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 10:04:06 PM)
We were talking about genealogy. Reddove does it too. She helps out on the LDS site

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 10:04:17 PM)
Yeah, we did too. That has been a mess

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 10:04:42 PM)
Now we have to have cable or a box. We do have cable, but if we couldn't afford it we would have to have a box

beckdildal (Jun 15, 2009 10:04:46 PM)
now i can't get one PBS channel 9 on two of my tv's

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 10:05:11 PM)
Oh no, if I didn't have PBS I wouldn't need a tv too much

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 10:05:35 PM)
Jim and I have been watching a lot of westerns here lately. Something we have never done before

beckdildal (Jun 15, 2009 10:05:45 PM)
anyway, we get two PBS stations

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 10:05:58 PM)
Oh well, that is enough. We only have one here

beckdildal (Jun 15, 2009 10:06:11 PM)
i'm going to watch masterpiece theater tonight "Little Dorit"

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 10:06:24 PM)
What is that about?

beckdildal (Jun 15, 2009 10:07:10 PM)
it a charles dicken's novel about a girl that grows up in a debtor's prsion and in the end becomes rich "rags to riches"

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 10:07:26 PM)
hmmm. I might see if it is on here

beckdildal (Jun 15, 2009 10:07:55 PM)
i'm going to say goodnight and you take care.

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 10:07:55 PM)
Can you believe they once had debtor's prisions. I think they would have a lot of people in them in this day and time

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 10:08:13 PM)
Okay Beck. You have a wonderful week and pray for my hubby, okay?

beckdildal (Jun 15, 2009 10:08:36 PM)

froglady (Jun 15, 2009 10:08:42 PM)
