Congratulations Diva!

JD, that is so sad. Hard to believe that people can't see their own future when they misshandle elderly affairs.

Ron I would love to visit that beach!

It was very nice there!

I might like it better than Stinson beach. Pr. Reyes is nice too

Yep, that's something.... something bad.

You know....the beach sounds really good. I think at the end of the month my wife and I are going to get our fishing licenses and are gonna spend a weekend together at the beach.

better a sharp needle than a dull one -

 

[Alaskan]

True that.

I STILL remember my last injection with a reusable needle... it sure was in need of a good sharpening

A lot of how a shot feels depends on the skill and consideration of the person giving it. First off, if the liquid to be injected is cold, it needs to be warmed up. A person who knows how to give a shot is so good at it, you may not even feel it.

 

[Alaskan]

I think a smaller needle helps to.

Reusable needles are pretty fat... add in some dullness and I don't think it can do anything but hurt.

Amen to that about the shots. Technique is everything. Most folks don't realize that the bulk of the sting comes from not letting the alcohol dry completely after swabbing the site. The needle drags the wet alcohol into the puncture site.

Penny, sorry to hear about the chick.

Sure does. Hate to say it but it happens too often ... has anyone checked the books for embezzlement?

We had an employee skim 40,000 dollars off the books over several years. They did it so slick that the accountant didn't even catch it. DH finally found out what was going on by checking into the accounting data. We then had to get a forensic accountant involved along with a CPA auditor, state police, it was a nightmare. Turns out we had almost 50,000 dollars gone via embezzlement and identity theft by the same person. They pleaded guilty, got a slap on the wrist, probation, three weekends in jail and public service, and has to pay us back 100 dollars a month or go to jail. Sometimes we only get 35$ though and when we questioned the authorities about it they said they were always responsible about getting the money to them. what a freakin' joke that is.

The moral of this story is, embezzlers unless the amount of money stolen is quite high, generally get off with a pretty light slap on the wrist.
