morningstar55 · 04-19-2010, 09:47 AM

GOoooooooooooooood Morning Lofters
hope you al have a easy going Monday...
i have landed just east of Birmingham Al

Lady_Wu · 04-20-2010, 10:04 PM

nin hao, ma? how is everyone doing ? i hope that Monday has proved a good start to the week. my week has had a wonderful start. i am glad about this. i have an appt tomorrow w/my counselor. next week is going to be extremely busy: two dr. appts! getting older can surely be lucrative for the medical profession, lol. has anyone hear of or tried the new trifocal glasses about which i keep reading? i now wear bifocals; these new glasses are very appealing to me-they are even adjustable! they do have a nerdy Ben Franklin look. this actually appeals to me as a nerdy ex-Prof and librarian.

the only thing dissuading me from buying a pair is price, somewhere around 300$. much too high for a poor ex-academician!
henle, now to the potentially useful: if you are on SSD or over the age of 50 (I think), and low income, then you are eligible for a free cell phone and free minutes. the amount of minutes you are given each month varies by state, as does the minute's rollover policy. you can find out more about this program here: www.safelink.net. i got my cell phone last month. nice little phone easy enough even for me to use. not very many minutes. what do i expect, i live in a poor state. you can BUY more minutes if you like, which i won't. i just use it to call home to let folks know if i will be home late, etc.
another benefit for those of us who are disabled, esp. if you have low vision: the Library of Congress distributes by state a program which issues to those qualified a special cassette player (though they are quickly going digital) which plays books on tape. They send you a book of available titles and you choose from them and they send it to you for as long as you need it! They also do this with large print books. If your state does not have a title, they can usually arrange to get it from the Library of Congress. Any public library should be able to sin you up for this program. i can send you the info you need if they cannot. just PM me if you need it.
that's all the news i've got fit to print now.

Kimbo · 04-20-2010, 10:42 PM

I have the new trifocal..I believe they call it the progressive lens. I love them and love being able to see the little things. It seems glasses are quite expensive doesn't matter which lens you get. I was shocked at the cost.

Sunny · 04-21-2010, 08:29 AM

Just dropping by to say hello. I have been pretty busy with work. Just got a Jeep Cherokee. Love the ride but hate the gas consumption. LOL That is the price to pay for riding high. LOL Having problems with my shoulder going to see a specialist today. Hope everyone is well. I do not think I ever had a crawfish. I am more a shrimp, scallop person. Used to go to a place in Hoboken called the Clam Broth House. The best seafood I ever had. Well I am off to see the Doc. Wish me luck. Sunny

morningstar55 · 04-21-2010, 08:44 AM

good morning Lofters

Thank Youuuu Lady Wu .. great helpful stuff there..... i know a lot of truck drivers whom listen to them audio books while driving , they have great selections in almost all the big chain truck stops.
Sunny......... is it sunny there yet??? lol
hey there Kimbo.....

i have to see the doc's next friday or sooner........ have to get my blood pressure meds renewed.

good mornign Diva.. nice seeing you here in these parts.. lol
ok i have some serious supply shopping to do for this rolling tiny apt on wheels im in... sooo will bbl.. have a great hump day everyone.

Lady_Wu · 04-21-2010, 09:15 PM

Kimbo:
i've had to get new glasses every two or three years since i was five. i now have progressive glasses. the lenses alone cost almost 400$ these aren't the glasses i'm talking about. these Trifocals are made by one specific company (can't think of the name at the moment). they come in only one type of frame, which has a mechanism by which the glasses can be adjusted for something, i don't know. they cost ~800$, i believe.
i hope that my information proves useful for someone out there. i love my new digital machine for reading tapes? discs? i don't know what to call them. the battery charge lasts for 24 hours, so i can take it w/me to Dr. appts and other time-consuming events. plus, more and more magazines are going to disc/tape/whatever these days. so far my Buddhists magazines haven't (big surprise there,lol)).
i don't have any news to report tonight. just dropping in to say hello to everyone. happy wednesday!
oh, and in the great crawfish debate, i grew up on the MS gulf coast and in LA. we used to have crawfish boils on the beach. Sometimes a yankee tourist or two would stumble in to see what was going on. my brother and i took great pleasure in showing them how to eat crawfish..."snap them apart, then you bite the tail and suck the heads." then we would watch them turn green and stumble out of the tent. rflmao! (no disrespect meant for yankees, current or otherwise in this post.)
