You Got #400 WAX
What has, Wanda? Typos???? Ha! I blame it on long fingernails, small keyboard (laptop), and a brain that goes faster than fingers!!!!
Ha, Ha, Ha...Lynn, my fingers go 75MPH and my brain goies 45 MPH! I often type things that my brain has not told me to yet:)
Dana, time sure must be moving slowly for you. I thought you would be all healed by now. Sorry it's taking so long. How does it feel, besides the headaches. Could you be using your eyes too much? Need more Panda naps:)
Let's just say I'm glad I have that red underline appear when I do have typos! And also my brain does go dead at times! lol
The only way I can check my spelling is in composing email.
My spelling has gotten terrible over the years.
Just made Dr appointment for 3:30
I just don't think it is the Ragweed
causing my head cold symptoms and coughing. Will more than likely get started on an antibiotic......
I'll let you know.
Good afternoon my friends of fine feathers and fur! Have a lovely breeze coming through the window right now and have a little pathology to type. Do I need to start proofreading again around here?
Suzanne said she was going home that it was like a ghost town at work because so many went over to the Pentagon for a program. She got the b-day cards and said Thanks and that she was going to have a good day tomorrow.
That may be helpful Sharon - BUT you know we can read anything - even if it is misspelled!
First FL Shuttle landing time has been waived off. 2nd opportunity landing time is 8:40..........depending on weather.
Rgt, Jo....we dnt nd hlf the ltrs to kn wht a wrd is spsd to be!!!
Dana, when do you get your new glasses? That is probably what is causing your headaches!! Using a prescription that is no longer correct can make your eyes go funny!!!!
Do you all remember the time that Candy wrote a whole paragraph with he fingers on the wrong keys! That was a hoot and I don't think she ever did realize she had done that, so we didn't ever find out what she was telling us:) LOL
Mema Jo I just loved the last part of your comment
at 1:44 tee hee..
Prayers that your Dr. visit turns out good and he helps you FAST!!! I worry if I hear Ed cough. You two have so many prayers from me..I believe all I have to do if say
"God Ed and Mema Jo" and HE knows right away.
Didn't realize that you were having those symptoms again, Jo. Glad you are getting to the Dr. before the weekend sets in. Just hope he doesn't put you back on the Pred.! I've been clogged up, too, but just in my nose---no other symptoms. Think I just have done too much crying the last few days--we've had a lot of things to cry about!
First Landing Opportunity Waved Off
Fri, 11 Sep 2009 04:56:07 PM UTC-0100
The weather forecast is "no go" today for Friday’s first landing opportunity at Kennedy Space Center in Florida. If the weather cooperates for the second Kennedy landing opportunity, the deorbit burn would occur at 6:17 p.m. EDT, with landing at 7:23 p.m.
Wnada, I don't remember that---must have been before my time here! Candy might have been typing in the dark! I can never get it right when I do that!
Landing Delayed until Second Opportunity
Weather conditions forced flight controllers to pass on STS-128’s first landing opportunity at Kennedy Space Center in Florida.
The second Florida landing window begins with a deorbit burn at 6:17 p.m. EDT and ends with a landing at 7:23 p.m.
The first landing opportunity in California has a deorbit burn time of 7:47 p.m. with landing at 8:53 p.m. The second opportunity would start with a deorbit burn at 9:23 p.m. and end with a landing at 10:28 p.m.
A landing today will complete a two-week flight for Commander Rick Sturckow, Pilot Kevin Ford, and mission specialists Pat Forrester, Jose Hernandez, Danny Olivas and Christer Fuglesang. Today is the 58th day in space for their crewmate Tim Kopra, who launched on shuttle mission STS-127 in July and spent two months on the International Space Station as an Expedition 20 crew member.
Hi, gang, I'm back for a bit. Need an Anatomy question answered, if anyone knows for sure. Is the Patella considered to be a short bone, a flat bone, or an irregular bone? Two of my books don't say--they just call it a sesamoid bone, and leave it at that! Trouble is, the teacher doesn't use the book when he makes up questions on the homework! Yikes!
Mits, my email from NASA says:

I don't get the emails Lynn, I just go straight to their site and get the lastest info
Lots of luck finding the answer Andrea
I just know that if my patella wasn't working I wouldn't be able to stretch my legs! In fact when I broke my Femur I think now there are some screws in my Patella!
lol(lots of luck)
I hope the weather doesn't dampen the attendance for Paula's reunion down at OC.
I'll touch base when I get back from Dr
Raining steadily now....
The little hummer was here earlier....
BBL
Thanks, Jo,
I'm sure glad your patella works!
That must've been some surgery to get those screws in there! Tell you what--ask your Dr. my question! Talk to you later....Hope the appointment goes extremely well!
Andrea, I THINK it's a flat bone! Let me see if I can find out!
Andy, flat triangular sesamoid!
My Patella is Flat...Flat out not working!
LYNN YOU HAVE MAIL
Also I do believe your right Lynn it is my glasses but can't get checked till Sept.29th for reading glasses.
Picked up some a dollar store like everyone told me but still get headaches when read.
Going to take panda nap
LOL, Wanda! Of course it's working! It's protecting the tendons and the heads of the femur and tibia! That's it's main job!! Most trouble occurs in the meniscus and the bursa behind the kneecap!!
Lynn, is it my patella that the doctor goes directly below to give me my "New Knee" shot?
Back again.
Dana, hope you get over the headacehs. Maybe resting your eyes for awhile every now and then would help.
Foam rubber donuts? Yikes!
Lynn, hope things get better for you.
Andrea, good luck with the test.
Diego's second exam was cool -- loved the milk mustache.
Laundry almost done now. Trying to catch up on some school work.
Jo, good luck with the doctor.
Hummers fooled me. Saw two at the Salvia about an hour ago. Thought they had taken off.
Judie
Andrea, google says patella is flat triangular
Judie
Yep, Judie, that's what told Andy, too!
Wanda, I guess he must be going under but then up---I've never seen it done that way---always from the sides!!! Is he using Synvisc or just cortisone??
I think, Corisone. Due for another shot next week:) Yipee!
I think it might even be cortisone!
LOL! You ask about the possibility of Synvisc! Synvisc is injected directly into the knee joint to restore the cushioning and lubricating properties of normal joint fluid. Synvisc injections are approved for the treatment of osteoarthritis of the knee; given in 3 injections 7 days apart.
Kennedy Landings Waved Off, Discovery to Land at Edwards
Fri, 11 Sep 2009 14:42:59 -0500
Mission Control has decided to target Edwards Air Force Base, Calif., for today's landing since the weather at Kennedy is unstable. The deorbit burn is timelined to begin at 7:47 p.m. EDT for an 8:53 p.m. landing at Edwards. The burn lasts three to four minutes, slowing Discovery enough to begin its descent.

Paula arrived in Ocean City, said to say high to everyone, sun is starting to peek out for the first time since last Sunday
Hi all! Back from being a grandparent. First we went to Jacob's school. They asked for a volunteer to read...guess who's hand shot up first!! Then they asked for a Grandpa...and guess who read that book! lol
Then we went to KFC to get our meals for ourselves and Joseph. We ate in his classroon with him. More fun!
We are now home and I have time to get some things done. Think I will start loading the trailer. Jack has a teleconference in a few minutes, but I saw him loading wine and beer. He is ready to go!
I certainly hope ths sun does shine on Paula this weekend. She certainly deserves a fun weekend.
The patella is a flat triangular bone.
Quck visit.
Glad Paula arrived safely and, even if the sun don't shine, she has a really, really nice weekend to relax.
Lolly, you and Jack must be among the very vest. Have fun!
Judie
Quickly checked Diego and got to thinking how cute it would be so see one of those Got Milk ads with Diego and his milk mustache.
Hello! I'm Back Everything went well
at Dr Got antibiotic and 2 steroid shots and don't need to increase dosage of prednisone. 2 shots - one is fast acting and the other is long lasting!
Still raining here... There are a few on the boardwalk so I hope rain has left the area for a while.
I was hoping for a fresh new thread by the time I got home.
Going to check 'what's for dinner'
Might need to be soup & sandwich.
BBILW
Braveheart still sitting on the ledge of the nest at BWO
My aunt in Denver gets those Syn... shots in the knees. They work miracles on her knees, she went from total pain to barely none with the first shot. She is still doing well about 2 months later.
can you get one for the whole body???? I'd like that.
Jo, glad doc hit you with the powerful stuff!
Lolly, sounds like you had a full, fun day! KFC for school lunch?? Bet that was a treat. Would you believe my grands don't like fried chicken??? silly kids!
Glad that Paula made it down shore safely.
Raining pretty steady here now.
Guess it's time to rustle up some grub.......hmmm...what shall it be???
Has Andy not checked back for the answer to her question??? We gave her 3straight answers!!!! Good luck on test, Andrea!!
Lynne I think that Wanda's definition for Andrea was the best
...My Patella is Flat...Flat out not working!
ROFLMBO
Hi family, how are things going? Whats wrong with Dana? Is she ok?
Hi Anne Marie - Dana is ok but has had the 2nd cataract removed and her eyes are a little strained but won't be examined for new glasses until 9/26.
I'm keeping my eyes on the NASA TV
to be sure I see our shuttle safely land.
Weather has moved the landing out your way at Edwards AFB.
thanks Jo, you guy need to stay healthy. One sicky in the bunch is enough and I'm getting better every day
And I am very very happy to hear you say that!
Its 100 here today and its hard to breath. No one in their right mind wants to be in Edwards AFB in the middle of the desert.Just think how hot it is there.
the one nice thing about this surgery is that I have lost weight. Nothing fits but I dont care. Now I have to keep it off.!
I am sending you an email with the
info you requested.....
Hooray for Bill!!!
thanks Jo, we will work it out. He is the best brother ever.
I haven't talked to Wanda, is she getting ready for the Halloween rush?
She has been spending lots of time getting the shop ready. Gene couldn't help recently due to a bout with the gout! Wanda missed not having his help.
What???WHat??? Is bro Bill going to get A-M here for Open House, by hook or by crook????
I have a friend with gout problems and he has cured it with cherries and cherry pills at the health food store. His doctor is really surprised.
Hi Anne sounds like your getting better and better lady.
I bet it's hot in the desert. I'm sure desert being hot
they don't care about they just want that shuttle safe
at home here.
Took panda nap woke up felt terrible. Took my blood sugar
it was 37 yikes!!!! Yes I ate breakfast, my little snack,
lunch, my little snack and don't know what happened in
my sleep.
Wanda's been working a lot in the shop getting ready for Halloween.
What is that favorite gd of yours doing now? We all were so lucky to have met her. Tell her I said Hello and hope all is well........
Anne Marie, how much have you lost.? I went to put on capris that I have not worn since last fall. First pair I absolutely could not wear, they would fall off. Second pair I wore today, but they are baggy! I figured that was going to be my problem, good, but a problem!
No Hedgie I cant make it on the 17 . but he is going to stop by for the day before that day so I can at least have lunch with those that can come. I need to be thankful for that. I thought about taking a bus from his house to the open house but it was too long and too expensive.
I hope the day soon comes that my pants won't stay up on my hips!
I guess I am just glad to be breathing and won't ponder too much on any weight loss at this time.
Sorry I'm trying to get use to these glasses. They belong to Ed's cousin, she left them here. They are better than mine for reading. Maybe not good for typing lol
Well, A-M, that is certainly better than not seeing you at all!!! Do you know yet what day it will be????
Put my capris on one day while I was going to Wellness Center. It was nice to have them too big. Now since not going they are snug. :(
Hi Dana and Lolly too. pants are falling off too and people frown against that. It just isnt excepted in nice company. Jo I took Diana to the lab for blood test today. she is breaking out in hives and they dont know why. She stated she wanted to go with me on vacation.... She cant because of work. she says its no fun being a grown up...:)
Jacob's birthday cake is in the oven. Will decorate it tomorrow. Designed the shape today. It is going to be a rocket. It will have two port holes and Jacob will be looking out of both windows. I got a picture this week with his starwars costume on and one with his helmet. I have printed them and taped them to protect from the icing, It is going to be blue,white and orange. This was his choice! Candle will be the flames out of the back of the rocket. I think this is going to work!
Dont know what day it will be. Bill said we would work it out when I get to his house. I will let you know as soon as I can.
Lolly that sounds like a great birthday...
He wanted a "rocket" birthday. He is going to have it! Laurel found a rocket pinata as well.
That's great, A-M. Will be so good to see you!
Lolly, take a pic of the cake and share with us, ok???
I want to see a pic of the Rocket Cake Lolly. It is going to be great from your description...... Someone is going to feel very special!
Lolly make sure you take a picture and put on your page so we all get to see it. Sounds like it is going to be a fantastic birthday cake!
NASA TV - Motorcade moving right along to meet that Rocket!
The skies out there are breath taking!
I guess the heat is also! lol
Oh Anne poor Diana bless her heart she is such a wonderful girl. Is she all finished school now?
got the email Jo. thanks
Jo, She is not finished with school. She is working full time so school is two classes at a time. Not the way I wanted it but I'm just grandma not mom.
Will take a picture tomorrow. I think it is going to be really cute. I looked at pictures on line, but decided to design my own. I love doing this, but I am so glad when I am through and it turns out okay.
I wouldnt live in that desert for anything. Its nasty. Here is gets hot for a few days. There its hot for months
Jo where are you watching it at?
Watching them get ready at Edwards. Jack has been out there many times, and sometimes for weeks at a time. Actually, months, during flight tests.
I dont do well in the heat. Bill says its in the 70's there and when I get back I am going to Santa Barbara for a while.
Less then 3 min for the deorbit to kick in
It has been out 2 weeks
Link to PC NASA
Thanks Jo...I googled and found had to do a add on but got it...thanks.
where are you watching this. I cant find it.
Anne go back 2 comments not counting this one.
In the 70's here, Anne Marie. We got about a half inch of rain yesterday evening and so far this evening close to an inch. Whoopee! Rain expected all weekend. Let it fall!!!!!!!
oopopps 3 comments back
I am watching it on NASA TV.
Annie did you find the link?
Going to warm up supper. We had quiche last night. Going to have the other half tonight.
Lolly - Is there anything you can't make? I love quiche!
You may need to adopt me! lol
54 mins from touch down & it is 8:00 now.
Anne - I hope Diana's rash turns out to be NOT medical. Maybe like detergent or new food - something like that.
MMMmmm...pass the quiche... although I have a large pot of homemade spaghetti sauce bubbling away on the stovetop. Perfect night for it, cause it is chilly here today!
Howdy all:)
Dana, Ch. 283 on Directv.
Was anyone watching the still cam right before the night light went on..
I wasn't and that has been the time we
get a visitor or two for a short period of time.......
Oh Jo I hope so too for Diana.
Watching this with friends on here is so nice. It is very exciting.
Hello FLoralgirl! Well it did rain some - did it do your flowers any good?
Yeah, Dana I even got chills watching the motorcade going out to the landing strip.......
I think I see Spidey's web across our
nest.......
Oh yeah, any little bit of rain helps at this point. We really got no rain the whole month of October. So today's weather has been great in my opinion.
Month of October last year or August this year?
Sorry, I've been doing that for days now. I mean August, but my mind is stuck in October.
Thanks Lynn..need to remember take these glasses off when get up to walk. Almost fell over my own bed.
Jo your right chills, find myself holding my breath sometimes.
Got TV on and on computer.
Diego doing sitting ups...on back...legs up to head then legs back stretch out...then legs up to head.....then legs back stretched out.
Now over on his stomach.
Link to Aussia Falcons
Open the link - you may decide to make it a favorite for these upcoming months. Eggs were just laid 9/7..
Got it Jo thank you already in favorites from last year. Thanks for making aware eggs have been laid.
Dinner over and kitchen cleaned up.
Jo, so happy all went well at the drs. Feel better soon.
I'm with Margy and want a whole body shot.
Dana, hope the blood suger is under control. How's Ed?
Lolly, yes please take a picture of Jacob's rocket cake for us -- it's going to be a real hit and memory-maker.
Wanda, how's the shop coming?
I'm beginning to get a bit nervous about Open House with so many of you losing your pants -- is that a public event?
Off to read a little. Tired tonight.
LOL, Judie!! Don't worry---NOT losing my britches!!
Well, Jo...I just like to cook. My first college degree was vocational home economics with a emphasis on early childhood education.
When my children were little I took a cake decorating course. I just like to do things rather than pay someone else to do it. ha!
Getting close.....gotta get my camera ready....northeast aqpproach--going to have to make a turn for approach. 220 statute miles!
Oh, Judie! You are a riot. You are going to have so much fun at Open House.
My BFF worked at Edwards a long time ago, early in her DOD career.
I visited Jack out there one time. It was one of those times when he was there for a long time...I went to visit. We had fun!
Lynn Are you saying I better get outside and look for this suttle?
DISCOVERY SHUTTLE I mean>>>>>>
LOL Do not think you will see it Jo!
Well why is Hedgie getting her camera ready?
Maybe is is going to take picture off of tv???????? Should I go outside to see it also???
Judie, you better come prepared to laugh your head off with us!!! Think you will just fall in love with all of us.....we are all so different but we just mesh "real good"!
We did see it one time when it was coming in to land in Florida. It was spectacular. We were wondering if we could spot it when this huge light whizzed across the sky. You could hear folks yelling all along the street.
ROFLMBO I don't know Dana what we are to do.............
Do I stay or do I go???????
I played that last night for all those trying to make up their mind to go to bed or stay on the blog........
Oh, no....can't see anything! I film it off TV!!!!!
11 and a half minutes and the touch down
10 minutes!
Well Jo I'm staying inside I know for sure I'll see it on tv lol
lol Thanks Hedgie!
I was about to put my Froggy Slippers on and go on the deck!!!
They are getting closer to land
Lolly, sure glad you didn't see the one that disintegrated over TX.
Over land now....
Yeah, me too. Was just thinking of it. Pieces were found pretty close. I looked.
There it is!
There it is showing on tv
Jo I just got my chills
LOOK AT THAT BABY FLY
Oh, that is just a balloon floating in the air! lol
Beautiful on tv see the Discovery
Well, this is just great -- I'm going to fall in love with a bunch of eagle momsters who can't keep their pants up. I just know I'm packing a whole bunch of safety pins! Believe me, otherwise it would not be pretty!
SMOOTH AS SILK
landing gear out
touch down
Cool!!!!!!!!!
WELCOME HOME
GOD BLESS AMERICAN
Your Back Home In America !!!!
Excellent, beautiful landing!! Never ceases to thrill me and amzae me!!
Here comes the welcoming motorcade!
That was just fantastic - awesome to say the least.
Judie, just leave your sensitive ears at home! We can get a little noisy and sometimes a wee bit raunchy, too!!!!
Interesting convoy!
Thanks to all of you for watching with me. Going to take a short break..
No I am not getting a snack.. I need to loosen up my jeans in order to fit in the group! lol
bbilw
Checking now to make sure there's not too much radioactivity on the spaceship, I guess.
Wonder what they are checking for with that long stick thing?
Maybe they should check it for swine flu!!!
They said they were checking for leaks.
Look at the marks on the outside and the black. I guess from the burn and re-entry.
Did Shirley go to bed early or just taking a nap?
And what is Mits up to? Surely she's watched the landing....
Hi, Lynn. I have been napping. Just came over to the computer and have been trying to find the NASA channel. Just got it a few minutes ago.
You ladies have been very busy this evening. I have just scanned over the messages.
You're right, Dana....re-entry scorching!
Bet that astronauts have space legs the same way sailors have sea legs!
THere you are, Shirley! Hope you had a good panda nap.
Still yawning. I do not think I can stay awake much longer.
I'm taking glasses off.....notice that Lynn lol before I go to walk out to kitchen for a nice glass of cold water.
Talked with the art teacher who told the teachers at our school about this website and told him how much I have appreciated it. I told him I would be going to the open house. He said that he learned about the eagle cam from a friend in West Virginia. He wants to hear about the open house.
Hey that was great. Went to the family room where the big screen is.the bigger picture was better. Now I had better think about dinner. BBL
Beautiful landing and all are safe and home. Congrats.
Shirley, glad you checked in.
Going to read a bit more before turning my light out -- so leaving the night light on for others. Here's for a lovely Sat. a.m. wake up.
G'night everyone.
Will see you tomorrow. Good night all. God bless.
G'night, Judie!
Shirley, does he want info about the schedule, or want to know details AFTER you've attended?
Okay, Dana, as long as you can see to walk!!
I think our resident school teachers have crashed after a week of doing what they do best!
Rest well and long, ladies:)
Well, hello everybody. I missed shuttle landing. I just got home from a meeting and been trying to read what I have missed. I am also listening to the Beaver game. Like 4 minutes left and the score is 47-0, Beaver. They are playing Greenbrier East from Lewisburg!
Lynn, I'll email Shirley a copy of what I wrote on the Open House, just in case he is interested in coming. We are becoming famous...WAHOO!
Sleep well, Shirley. You can sleep in tomorrow!
Goood, Wanda! TY.
Hey, Shar----good for your Beavers!
Doing what I do best.....falling asleep with the computer on my lap. Think I will go shower and maybe that will wake me up a bit. Only 9 here...too early to go to bed.
BBL
that was a very beautiful landing tonight....good night everyone.
Helen, I was wondering what you were up to! Was afraid you had missed it! Sleep well, gal!
I'll bet Helen and Paula were watching the landing and sipping a G&T;)
Our son is at OC Just got to talk on his cell phone and got him on OC
Ocean Gallery Cam to wave at me!
That is so cool.......
Now if I could find Paula.......
Look at the shuttle now. It is lit up and the sky is beautiful.
That would be nice if Helen and Paula were enjoying a drink together! Ah....wish I was at the beach....
Wow, it is about time to split again. I missed the shuttle landing, darn.
It was fantastic, Deb.
Did your son say if it was still raining, Jo? Cool that you got to see him on the cam!
Well, fine friends, I am going to say goodnight. Tub and book are calling. Talk to you in the morning. Blessings and peace......God Bless the USA.
I am headed to read also, night everyone.
I CAN'T BELIEVE THE BLOG IS
GOING 600 AND COUNTING UPWARD
BEFORE THE WEEKEND IS OVER WE WILL
HAVE HIT 1000. WHOO HOO!
3RD SPLIT
Hi, everybody.
The boy baby Panda is alone on cam again. More and more frequently now, as I commented earlier.
Well, I checked for a new exam today, and I found there are two new blog entries (1 exam) in the last couple of days.
Also there's at least one new Channel Island Report posted...
Happy reading.....
Speaking of reading, I visited the momsters site last evening to do some checking of the email there, and to my horror I found like 1500 emails!
I wound up deleting them all, but it must have taken a half hour...25 at a time. Wish they had a 'delete as many as you select' feature.
How's your email doing over there??
C(°Ù¿°)D
Jim
Time for me to say
Good Night to All
It has been a good day
Peace to all
Prayers for all
(((hugs to all))) ♥
