1:20 am
saphyre
you get to babysit for your birthday gift?
1:20 am
debbinla
so he emails me and asks if i have any preference for dinner sat night - and i think he's brining in food for me and the kids and going out with the wife - but everyone else is telling me there's no way he'd do that .....
1:21 am
saphyre
he wouldn't do that would he?
1:21 am
scv
i dont think he would
1:21 am

3:17 am
froelica
gremlins 2 is very educational

When I was a kid, my family did not have a lot of money. My father had a reasonably well paying job, but with four kids and a dog, money was often tight. This is not to say that we were deprived or unhappy. Our family did many activities together, but our favorite was camping, which we did year-round, blazing heat or freezing cold.
It was a great site to see the whole clan scrambling to get everything together for a weekend trip. The whole family then piled into our Chevy stationwagon with a dog bigger than the three smallest children put together. Dad would then tie down our trusty tent to the top of the Chevy and off we would go.
Our tent was amazing in and of itself. It was a army surplus tent large enough for the whole family plus dog. It had survived though rain storms, snow storms, wind storms. It had twice been uprooted from its stakes in high winds. (Makes me wonder why we went camping in so much terrible weather.) It had blown off the Chevy a couple of times, but it had always survived. At least it survived with mother's help at the sewing machine. It had patches over patches but it was still our faithful camping tent.
But alas, canvas can only last so long, so after about ten years of steady service, my Dad admitted one summer that our tent was no longer useable. We didn't go camping at all the following fall. The only thing that kept us kids controllable was that Dad promised we would get a new tent at Christmas, and we could go camping all winter.
So Mom and Dad went on a savings program to get the money for our new tent. They even got us kids to pitch in a little. Money was tight, but the savings accumulated, and we all had visions of a great winter outdoors. That is, until disaster struck in late November, and my little bother Johnny broke his arm. Dad hadn't counted on an emergency, and the hospital and doctor bills completely depleted our tent saving. We were all downcast at the prospect of no winter camping. Even I was almost sorry I pushed Johnny off the roof.
So as Christmas approached, we were all pretty glum. There weren't as many presents around the tree as usual, because the extra money had gone into my bother's arm. Finally, Christmas Eve was here, and our month long depression was lifted a little, because we could open our presents. Dad had to work, but he was late, and hadn't called. Mother began to worry, and just before she called the police, Dad drove up. We couldn't believe our eyes! There on top of the Chevy was a brand new shiny tent, even larger than Old Faithful.
Instantly, five voices started asking Dad question after question, so he ushered us all into the living room, around the Christmas tree to tell us what happened. It seems that Dad had seen an advertisement for a store called SURPLUS CITY (all caps required). Last week he had gone by to see if they had any tents that we could afford. There was one perfect tent (the only one actually) for $60. So Dad worked a little overtime and scrimped a little on his Christmas gifts and he scraped together about $45. That night he had gone to SURPLUS CITY with his $45 and tried to get a bargain on the tent. He had managed to chisel the manger down to $50 for the tent, but from there the manager wouldn't budge. There was no credit or lay-away at SURPLUS CITY, either, just cold hard cash.
So Dad went back out to the car, and thought about how hard it would be to come home empty handed. In a flash of inspiration, he got the spare tire from the car and went back in. He asked the manager if he would take the spare tire for $5 so he could buy the tent. With that act of desperation, the managers heart softened. What with it being Christmas and all, and my father being so intent on getting the tent, and stopping in several times over the past week, he let Dad have the tent for $40.
When Dad finished telling this story, we all cheered and hollered and generally made fools of ourselves. That was the happiest Christmas I have ever had. And that was the best winter of camping we ever had too, in THE WINTER OF OUR DISCOUNT TENT.

8:27 am
Atalante
don't take much notice of the few crossovers that don't look perfect - I'm just not going to get the knotting 100% perfect until the positions of everything is settled!
8:29 am
sprite
Yes, the crossover in the trunk is missing, but I can picture it. It is SO beautiful!
8:32 am
Atalante
trying to get knotwork crossovers right before the final version is a nightmare because you end up spending hours and hours changing them at every twist and turn. so they are just *there* for the time being, I'll fix them properly later
8:32 am
sprite
Of course, it would be a real waste of time otherwise. LOL, let me tell you, that root gnome looks a lot like me :)

We decided to get SkyPlus + multiroom about 3 weeks ago.It took me 2 weeks to actually get through to anyone on the phone... then I expalined what we wanted and also made a point of saying that we need a new sky box and that the dish is up on the chimney. 'No probs!' I was told and an appointment was made for Sunday 17th Sept. (Today, now.) A couple of engineers arrived about 5pm Saturday, just as we got home from the weekly big shop. 'We're early!' they said. 'Is that okay?' 'Fine!' we said. 'Go ahead!' Turned out they couldn't do the job because, yet again, they had not been informed that a 'Special Heights' sub-contractor would be needed (to get up on roof). SIGH!!

sukee - it's frustrating trying to deal with almost any company on the phone now... 'press ha4/6 key, press 1 for this, press 2 for that, press 3 for the bleeding other!' GRRRRRRRRRR! Even our GP (since the old one retired 3 months ago) has that on the phone now. AAAARGH!

jac, i've found i prefer the "press 1 for this" to the "if you want billing, say 'billing'" or whatever it is they want you to say! half the time the stupid thing doesn't understand me so i end up gritting my teeth and saying it like i'm talking to an idiot
8:35 pm

Jacula
I think that 'please hang up the phone and try again' woman must be the most abused... by housewives all over the world as they attempt to clean their telephones.
8:40 pm
Jacula
feather - I think it was 'voice analysis' or something, in other words, they try to work out if you are lying when you make a claim.
8:40 pm
Eva
oh yes! For a few months after we moved in here I would be upstairs and someone would knock on the front door. I would race downstairs and there wouldn't be anyone. It got quite creepy-happening over and over, often when I was alone in the house. Finally, one day, as I came down the stairs, I saw a woodpecker flying away from the front door. He obviously liked the sound it made.
8:41 pm
Enomis65
anyone need a clue before I go?
8:41 pm
bubba218
Ibd, they seem to like natural cedar shakes likethe type on our house, They will destroy the siding completely if you don't stop them
8:41 pm

oh wow, weird
8:41 pm

Thanks, everyone. It turns out that I didn't have that marked on Lickity's clues, but already have it, and the one I don't have is somehow already entered on the clue sheet.

Eva - I remember that! Is that what it turned out to be? The little b*gger!
8:43 pm
Eva
water gun-now there's a thought!
8:43 pm
lbdawger
feather, it's the plastic end thing on your shoelace
8:43 pm
Enomis65
think little animal that makes oink oink and change 1st letter
8:43 pm
featherbee
that thing has a name?
8:44 pm
featherbee
ok, got it
8:44 pm
Jacula
feather - ai6/24 is the plastic or metal bit on the end of your shoelaces, or any other ties. However, think of a little porker and change first letter.
8:44 pm
featherbee
thanks for the oink oink clue!
8:44 pm
Enomis65
what is your other one featherbee
8:44 pm

ai 7/28 one that is sicker+not off but **
8:45 pm

The ai6/24 was once made in many shapes, hence the ai*baby word. So it would seem.
8:45 pm

8:45 pm

8:48 pm
Eva
they are quite big...and ferocious. This one has been hanging around the house for a couple of years and lately has taken to hooting for hours non-stop. She did a dive bombing thing with the grouse and drove it straight into a plate glass window where it broke it's neck.
8:49 pm
lbdawger
wow, just looked up barred owl, they sure are pretty.
8:49 pm
Jacula
I have demented bats, cats and owls here. Hard to know who's sane half the time... LOL.
8:49 pm
jillibus
I just have dememnted deer who eat everything deer don't eat
8:49 pm
lbdawger
i like bats and dragonflies, they keep the skeeters and gnats away
8:49 pm
Jacula
Eva - did you duck or grouse? Sorry, awful joke! Did she get the grouse or did you?
8:50 pm
jillibus
90 left...
8:50 pm
lbdawger
part of my backyard is a nature preserve and we get all sorts of critters down there.
8:50 pm
Jacula
I've also got a sparrowhawk, who makes a right mess on bird table days!
8:50 pm
featherbee
(can anyone pass that message on to fran?)
8:50 pm
lbdawger
go jilli go!
8:50 pm
Eva
yes, they are beautiful. Very odd call-three regular notes followed by an off pitch deep one. Some people say they are saying "Whoo cooks for you?" We got the grouse, but didn't do anything with it. I know its just nature red of tooth and claw, but it made me sad. Such a beaautiful bird.
8:51 pm
jillibus
will try, to remember, fran!
8:51 pm
lbdawger
Feather, if i see fran I'll pass the message on
8:51 pm

hehe, thanks jilli!
8:51 pm
jillibus
haha lbd!
8:51 pm
featherbee
and lbd, and anyone else!
8:51 pm
Eva
I was also very surprised because they are nocturnal hunters. I'd never seen her active during the day before.
8:51 pm
featherbee
oh, she just signed on! i'll tell her myself
8:52 pm
Jacula
She probably had demanding young, Eva.
8:52 pm
Eva
Do you think they still have young at this time of year?
8:52 pm
lbdawger
hmmm wonder if there's something wrong with her. it's often the case when animals act out of character
8:52 pm
Jacula
Baby birds are far worse than baby humans!
8:53 pm
jillibus
I'm not getting that ve green clue - vert (french for green) blocks me
8:53 pm
lbdawger
this time of year, the young are usually out of the nest and close to being on their own
8:53 pm
Eva
try a d instead of the t jil
8:54 pm
jillibus
ok - but now I can't remember the rest of the clue - LOL!!!
8:54 pm
lbdawger
drop the t and add where bears live with a different vowel Jilli
8:54 pm
Jacula
jilli - Think South Africa's green spaces.
8:54 pm
Eva
it was the green beginning with the opp of out
8:55 pm
Jacula
lbd - yes, but season's and numbers of nestlings and litters are getting out of kilter...
8:55 pm
pida 1
an action word is a ve*b, mirror the b, + not in
8:55 pm
jillibus
ok, got it -- thanks!
8:56 pm
Jacula
EEK! Greengrocers' apostorphe there from me. I mean 'seasons'.
8:56 pm
lbdawger
i hope she's not still brooding nestlings this late in the season.
8:56 pm
Jacula
apostrophe. Shall I just give up???
8:56 pm
jillibus
I noticed that, jac!!!! *scold* - lol!
8:57 pm
Eva
I haven't been able to figure out where the nest is. I've only seen her directly twice, and always before just a twilight and during the winter. But she certainly was behaving as if her territory had been invaded. Then again, I've been assuming she's a she.
8:57 pm
Jacula
lbd - what I was trying to say is that the seasons are becoming a little longer than we are used to.
8:58 pm
jillibus
eva, the he owl is probably sleeping it off somewhere - lol
8:58 pm
Natasha
anyone got a clue for the el 5 (why do I think this should be obvious?)
8:59 pm
lbdawger
Eva, maybe there was another predator in the area. could be four or two legged or another bird
8:59 pm

I am missing two re7s: re7/36 and re/32. Am about to start pulling my hair out. Help please!!
8:59 pm
Jacula
Eva - don't know much about barred owls. Might be a she, but could also be a he with a late brood to protect or with the hope of once more?
9:00 pm
Natasha
I've been trying that and can't seem to get it...hmmm
9:00 pm
Eva
yes, I was very surprised that the robin's had two broods this summer. I guess that's pretty common for them.
9:00 pm

re7/32 to build again
9:00 pm
lbdawger
7/32 is to build again. and the 36 is what you use on your fishing pole + gerund
9:00 pm
jillibus
re7/36 - those who drink too much vodka may go re***** from the ta****
9:01 pm
bubba218
re 7,32 re building, think of the set kids used to made steel building structures
9:01 pm
Natasha
DOH! <slaps forehead>
9:01 pm
Jacula
Erda- re7/36 is the Butlin's workers/entertainers. Failing that, think of Roma Ligocka, the little girl who was featured in one of only 4 colour scenes in Schindler's List... what was she wearing?
9:01 pm
Eva
I have to look in my bird bookk again and see if there are obvious differences between male and femal appearance.
9:01 pm
pida 1
re 7/36 color + large jacket
9:02 pm
lbdawger
males are usually bigger and fuller plumed
9:02 pm
jillibus
re7/36 - also the dreaded Brit army in 1776
9:02 pm

right, but unless you have one of each sitting side by side how can you tell?
9:02 pm

ohmygod, jac, i remember how striking that was

Ren - some people may say to you, 'I can't believe you're in here!' However, when my Dad died, I went into my usual char forum at that time. I knew I would find comfort there that was not too close for comfort at that time.xxxxxxxx

zucchini races - people get their biggest zukes and put wheels and decorations on them, then send them down paired ramps - exceedingly silly and fun and maybe there are even side bets of beers and things...

And also, Ren, let's be honest, you are totally bemused when a parent is torn from your life... what the f*** do you do? Where do you go? You turn to your family, of course, but, if you're Netwise, to your friends their, also.

thanks all you sweeties! my mom loved to laugh
9:33 pm
stidmama
Laughter is important, even in the sad and difficult times. When my brother's best friend died many years ago from playing with model rocketry (he loved making his own fireworks and things that went boom) we went to his memorial service. A beautiful sunny day, there were balloons and cake (he had always said he wanted people to have a party in his honor) -- after all the talking was over, one of the balloons got loose and hit a juniper tree and popped. REAL LOUD. His mother jumped and hollered, "He's still with us!"
9:33 pm
stidmama
We smile through our tears...

Jacula
When my Auntie Joan died, her younger sister, Audrey, after hitting her head on the low part of the back hearse door on getting out, said, 'Bloody hell! She's trying to take me with her! She was always jealous of me!'
9:34 pm
Cat9x
Laughing is good, helps ease the pain, and allows the good things about that person to shine through! It's not about mourning, it's about the life they led, and the impact they made on this world. It's what they would want, to be remembered in a positive way.
9:34 pm
