You all probably already know this, but Martinez will also be on Dr. Phil Monday too. 3pm EST
Also Tanisha (sp?) and Clancey and I think a juror? not sure on the last one.

LOL I had so much fun with that. I really thought I would get more right. I was so shocked I didn't get any at all that matched the official answers. LOL

That was really fun.

It was, for me too, hehehe. And look, we got the same answer on # 6. Also, by looking at your answers, I think you're just more creative, LOL.

OK, so just to be fair I'll share my answers too. My three correct answers are in red.

1) A man went outside in the pouring ran with no protection, but not a hair on his head got wet. How come?

My answer: He's bald

2) John's father has five sons named Alan, Blan, Clan, and Dlan. What did he call his fifth son?

My answer: Elan ( John? Are you kidding me? :gaah: )

3) A taxi driver is going down a one-way street the wrong way; he passes 12 cops. Why does he not get arrested?

My answer: He was on foot

4) What is directly in the middle of Australia?

My answer: R

5) A soccer player kicks a ball. It goes 10 feet and comes back to him. How is it possible?

My answer: He kicked it against a wall, or another player kicks it back. ( I guess that's cheating because I gave 2 answers? :lol: )

6) On average, how many books can you put in an empty backpack?

My answer: None, because it then wouldn't be empty. (That's not correct? :waitasec: )

7) A cowboy rode to an inn on Friday. He stayed two nights and left on Friday. How can this be?

My answer: (this one stumped me but good)... He had arrived at the inn on Wednesday , left, and rode back again to the inn on Friday.

Well, hey, it works for me ! :floorlaugh:

Hatfield, I just would like to say that I appreciate your kindness to others so much. And I enjoy your posts, even if I don't comment enough. (As I do for ALL of you!)

I feel like I have been in a slump lately. Lots I would like to respond to, but I don't seem to have the get-go to write. My brain is on hiatus.

I feel the same spell, and I have a story to tell about dh going to the mayors house in a fit, and I was sure the swat team was going to show up.

I've been helping my sister taking care of Lily two days a week and she's something else. She took selfies on my phone and I don't know how she got to the camera, and last week she did something about the number of times it rings before going to voice mail. Which is now one ringy dingy. She's pulling up and standing. Loli and Pop have moved things up out of reach for now. If she's in her walker she zooms along behind, and if she's crawling, she does the army combat crawl. I found the farmer say (old style classic, not the new farmer eddie say) and she loves it. I'm getting her a swing for her birthday in March.

That was FUN! I only got John and bald right. #'s 1 and 2 :giggle:
My daughter got #s 1, 2 and the volley ball one right #5.
You'll want to really laugh? This was my answer to "What is directly in the middle of Australia"? Wait for it....I said a Kangaroo :floorlaugh: and my daughter said a bridge :lol:

I really enjoyed this tonight.
:laugh: a frickin kangaroo :laughcry:

A kangaroo?!!! :lol: :floorlaugh:

Good Morning! I read your test answers :giggle: Looks like you all had fun with it

Here's the update: After many test the results are that his heart damage is a left bundle branch. Now I wrote all this down so I would not forgot what they said..
They did cardiac resynchronization and put in a biventricular pacing device for his heart yesterday. It's like a pacemaker only it defibrillates the heart as it gets out of rhythm and will stop beating and this device shocks the heart into normal rhythm. They say this will be in for rest of his life... He is still in a coma but out of danger, so may be moving him to a lower level of care instead of the ICU.

The weather here is just crazy! Bone chilling COLD in single digits and we have missed the snow. Sat, Sun, Mon, calling for lots of snow. Who knows?? You get what you get and don't throw a fit!

And a very HAPPY HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY TOOOOO DMACKY :bdscroll:

Love you all and miss you. Thanks for the continued well wishes for us. (HUGS)

 

[Dmacky]

A kangaroo?!!! :lol: :floorlaugh:

:laughcry: I know!!! kangaroo :floorlaugh:
After seeing the answer, It was SO obvious it was the letters in the middle!
I didn't want to tell ANYONE my ignorant answer, but I thought you guys could use a laugh as I almost peed my "spiderman" panties laughing at myself.

In my defense (as IF there is one) I was already offline for the day/night. I had fallen asleep on the couch while watching TV, when I was awakened by Nancy Grace saying Juan was going to be on her show Monday night. Of course I had to get back online to give you all the news, that was apparently only "news to me" :smile: He will be on Dr. Phil as well Monday...anyway, I happened to see the common sense quiz. Just as I was reading the questions, my daughter came home from work and was standing over my shoulder reading them as well. So umm I was sleepy and distracted. Oh what the hell, there's no way out of it :lol: I shared because it was such an absolutely off the wall answer
and I wanted to bring some laughter into your all's evening.
So yeah Kangaroo- and that's my final answer. :thinking: I should have used my "phone a friend" lifeline hone:

coffeejunkie We love you and are so happy to see you checked in this morning!
PLEASE take care of yourself first! If other friends or family come to visit, take that opportunity for a little time for yourself. Go HOME and sleep for a few hours, or all night if you possibly can. Your well being is as important for Ryan as well as his own.
I know how exhausting/stressful it can be sitting in a hospital room with a loved one. I stayed with my husband every day, all day and all night for over a week every time he was admitted. (3 different times) I even showered in his hospital room. Believe me, it will eventually wear on you and make you very prone to getting sick yourself. I ended up with a double ear and upper respiratory infection.

* Ironically, I did the same thing with my mother, 6 months after my husband died.
(He died at home)
Out of the 3 of us kids, not counting the one lives in another state, I was the one who stayed with her, day and night. The reason is the hospital she and hubby both were in was truly Hospital Hell. No one ever came when she pushed her button. Even after several pushes. I can't tell you how many times I ended up going to the nurse's station DEMANDING her pain medicine, change of sheets, or whatever else she needed. (I just added this because I ended up sick again, this time with strep throat.)

Back to you
You have been a part of Ryan's life journey long before, and will be long after this hospitalization! Take care of yourself my friend, we love you.
One of the scariest things about having a loved one with a critical illness is the "not knowing" what's going to happen. I think we all know his recovery is going to be long and slow process. Hopefully he will be able to go to a inpatient rehab center. I hope he has Insurance? It costs lot's of $ there :frown:
If they are thinking of moving him out of ICU, He will more than likely go to the Progressive care unit (PCU) which is a step-down unit for patients that no longer need some of the care of a more critical unit but not quite ready to move to a regular room.

I'm pretty sure I understand about the device they used on Ryan,
But we just need Zuri to come in and decipher what all those medical words actually mean.
Sending you and Ryan much love and healing prayers!

ETA ~ Thank you my friend for the BD wishes :hug:

LOL, I just posted this on the wrong thread. Glad I caught it and deleted it ! :lol:

Anyway, I saw this video and thought of you Niner! It's so cool what they're doing with drones, in Latvia! :happydance:

Also Tanisha (sp?) and Clancey and I think a juror? not sure on the last one.

CJ, so glad Ryan is doing better. I have been sending up prayers and Jingles for all of you. I have been concerned and I appreciate your posting what was wrong with his heart as I have been hounding my DH for info on possibilities/differential diagnoses.

I am trying to think positively here: If there is a silver lining in all of this, Ryan has already detoxed and hopefully, his body is recovering from the effects of alcohol. He is being "forced" into compliance with his diabetes as well. He is getting the proper nutrition and the doctors seem to be on top of everything, getting him in optimal condition for when he is well enough to go home.

You have been constantly on my mind as you are living every parent's worst nightmare. The constant "not knowing" what each day will bring is incredibly stressful and painful. Sending you virtual (((((HUGS))))) and please know we are all here for you. You are loved.

Good Morning my Sidebar Friends! :wave:

On this in February:

That was really fun.

I'm glad you liked it! I'll try and find more stuff to post! Yeah, I too was shocked I didn't get any of them right either...

re bold - this is what my Huz needs - he finally saw his "old" cardiologist this past week, and will be working on getting him one SOON!! She took xrays and there is fluid building up under his lungs - he thought he had pneumonia, but it's the fluid that makes it difficult for him to breath. He got a "new" Primary doctor, so he's happy about that - a really nice guy - and will be drawing out the fluid as soon as the doctor can get a "referral" for this! We are HOPING he gets this done SOON!
Sending JINGLES! and prayers to your son!! :luv: and take care of yourself too!!!!!

Hey Bernina!!!!! :seeya: Long time no "see"!!!!!!! We all miss you too! :loveyou:

snipped by me...
Anyway, I saw this video and thought of you Niner! It's so cool what they're doing with drons, in Latvia! :happydance:

WOW! I didn't realize this was in Latvia - they showed this clip on the local news last night - and I don't think :thinking: they even mentioned that this happened there! Thanks! for letting me know!!! :skip:

Well, it's Friday, so need to go grocery shopping today and other errands! I will return later - and hoping YESorNO has posted some goodies for us!

okay - this site is getting wonky - hoping this posts... cguru:

Busy sewing day here. I am trying to make little covers for my dogs in this cold weather. They aren't quite coats or shirts, but a back cover with straps around the neck and belly area. Not doing the greatest, as my machine keeps breaking the thread or running out. Gaah! But enjoying the attempt, at least.


Sooo glad to see our Bernina stopped by! Gosh, I miss you, girl!!

Sending lots of Jingles for Coffee's son and Niner's hubby.

Ok .... back to the sewing machine for me. Have a great weekend, everyone. Hugs for all of you!

ETA:
Oh my gosh! It just started snowing and suddenly turned into a blizzard. The large flakes are blowing so hard and fast that I cannot see two blocks down the road. Was NOT expecting this at all!!! I thnk I will shut all the curtains so I don't have to look at it. harrumph!
