1:53 am

I wasn't on much yesterday - what was it, sprite?
1:53 am
sprite

Yesterday's was special, I really change my whole icon. It was favorite colours, jillibus.
1:53 am
helenkeller

i guess i must pay closer attention to sprite's doings - of course when i see you sprite, it's like 1 or 2 am & my eyes are barely functional
1:54 am
jillibus

I had my favourite colour (aqua) on yesterday but didn't see yours - what was it?
1:54 am
sprite

You don't miss much, helen. Just an occasion playful moment with my icon, if the theme allows it.
1:55 am
sprite

Deep purple, jilli.
1:55 am
jillibus

another favourite of mine
1:56 am
sprite

Actually, I don't have one single favo colour. It's combinations that I like. Like that deep purple with your aqua.
1:56 am

yeah - but i love stuff like that !
1:56 am
jillibus

does anyone know if Lickety is going to continue? I saw he did yesterday
1:56 am

Don't know, haven't heard. I hope he is not giving in to pleas against his better judgement. His quality of life should come first.

2:04 am

I tried the other site the other day and it was not as convenient because you could not type in the words. Is there another?

Y4/7 a form of matter hypothesized by proponents of the big bang theory to have existed before the formation of the chemical elements I thought it was a biblical city or place, but it isn't.

P4/7 albuminoid constituent of pus, related to mucin, possibly a mixture of substances rather than a single body. Yugh. And I would have thought it was related to a kind of language.

I was thinking of you the other day. But, I haven't been around much either so I didn't know if maybe we were just missing each other. Sorry to hear there has been illness
7:17 am

I HATE summer colds!!! Makes the fever feel even more unbearable...

7:18 am
Charm

thanks, Kallia
7:18 am
Jera

I'm torn whether to take Gwyd in to the doctor... if it's just a bad cold, I hate to drag him out in this horrible heat, plus wasting the money...
7:19 am
amandacath

Kallia, the other 8 is holiness
7:19 am
Charm

Jera, how old is he? Mine's 4yo and has a terrible temp, so we're off to the pediatrician later.
7:19 am
musicmom

How long has he been sick?
7:19 am
Jera

Sprite got sick at camp (which is where the rest of us got this lovely present)... I was afraid it might be a mold allergy... I rained like crazy the 2 weeks she was there... I think they hd 4 sunny days...
7:19 am
Kallia

thank yu amanda
7:20 am
musicmom

UGH! That is a miserable camp
7:20 am
Jera

Gwyd is 4 1/2 thermometer says 99.3, but then he's coughing, which makes you feel warm
7:20 am
Jera

She had a blast anyway, caught all kinds of fish!
7:20 am
Angb

Anyone got a hint for do 6/24
7:20 am
Anniebrook

Hi musicmom
7:21 am
musicmom

Excellent! Usually the kids aren't hindered by the rain - it's the counselors:-)
7:21 am
musicmom

Hi Annie
7:21 am
Jera

Gwyd started feeling snuffly Wednesday, coughing a bit at night since then. Then yesterday all you know what broke lose. Actually Saturday night, he coughed all night
7:21 am
Anniebrook

Jera hope your little one gets better soon....coughs can last a long time
7:21 am
Kallia

Angb...count the spots!
7:21 am

7:22 am

7:22 am
musicmom

I think I would wait another day or so Jera. Especially since the fever is low grade
7:22 am
Kallia

ty Amanda
7:23 am
Angb

Thx - time for bed I think.
7:23 am
Jera

That's kind of what I'm thinking, musicmom... he is drinking, but not much appetite. No throwing up thank the gods...
7:23 am
Anniebrook

I agree but if the cough continues coupled with the lowgrade fever a doctor visit might be a good idea
7:23 am
shutterbug

just checking in before I go out. how many words today?
7:23 am
Jera

Thanks, Anniebrook... I HATE coughing. It's one of those things that really grate on my nerves...
7:23 am
Anniebrook

7:23 am

As long as he isn't getting dehydrated the body is equipped to take care of this kind of thing.
7:24 am

thanks annie. by all bbl to play.
7:24 am
musicmom

I have coughed all my life. Used to make my mom insane
7:24 am
Jera

That's kind of what I was thinking... but summer school is only 4 weeks so I hate for him to miss! But going to the doctor's office, you can pick up even worse than what you have!
7:25 am
Anniebrook

my daughter was a cougher when she was younger. that was my night music. keep him/her watered. mm is right. annie is just fine.
7:25 am
musicmom

I'll keep him in my prayers Jera.
7:25 am
Jera

He's drinking lemonade & I even let him have one of my slimfasts yetserday... he loves those!
7:26 am
musicmom

EEEWWWW that would make me throw up:-))
7:26 am
Kallia

just what I was thinking musicmom :)
7:27 am
Jera

Actually, since they changed the formula, the knock-off brand is better! I don't like the low-carb variety which is about all you can find these days
7:28 am
musicmom

Well you can give Gwyd mine<giggle>
7:29 am
Jera

Sprite liked them when she was little... the doctor warned me against letting her have too much, since it's an adult vitamin ratio... can be bad for kids.
7:29 am
Jera

We froze some & made homemade milkshake popsicles
7:30 am
musicmom

That might be better. There is a slime factor I don't like to the drink. I like the meal bars
7:30 am
musicmom

I'm usually too cheap to buy them.
7:30 am
musicmom

I use to take them when I taught school because I could eat at my desk.
7:30 am
Jera

The Equate (knockoff brand) has no slime factor, at least not to me. I know what you mean
7:30 am
musicmom

My schedule was tight - didn't have a lot of time for meals
7:31 am
musicmom

Okay. I better get into the grid. I have Bible Study today and Sarah has band tonight
7:31 am
Jera

Good talking with you, MM... I'll shut up so we both can get cracking...
7:32 am

LOL I missed talking to you. Glad to see you again. I hope Gwyd gets better

Fireworks! Thanks hetty and saphyre! Hi nrkii!
5:58 pm
nrkii

I taste a liquor never brewed,

From tankards scooped in pearl;

Not all the vats upon the Rhine

Yield such an alcohol!



Inebriate of air am I,

And debauchee of dew,

Reeling, through endless summer days,

From inns of molten blue.



When landlords turn the drunken bee

Out of the foxglove's door,

When butterflies renounce their drams,

I shall but drink the more!

if you have the io6/21 it just changes one letter in the middle
7:38 pm
TheFiz

HDM - 6/21 has to do with salt. 6/18 with charges. or perhaps not on your list...
7:38 pm
herdarkmistress

puptone is that a latest addition to the brood?
7:38 pm
lbdawger
