Hobbit really needs a trim. Husband took her out yesterday - he's at home because he's "ill" . They had a lovely long walk, but when it came to washing the mud out of her, he was suddenly too tired and ill again. So we have a mud monster!
2:47 am
jillibus
oooh, really, chj?????? <VBG>
2:48 am
Haz1558
Oh dear! After Spangle has been done I always think 'Now why didn't we do that sooner?' She was casting at a terrible rate as well. Mind you, she doesn't mind getting washed. She stands quite happily in the shower.
2:49 am
Atalante
Hobbit loves the shower .... she's less imprssed with buckets of cold water thrown over her outside :P
2:49 am

2:49 am
Cecilly

Thanks Fran and Haz! Bye Haz!
3:18 am
FranMag
cat, did you catch that special on the dog?
3:18 am
Cat9x
Yes I did, I feel so bad for them, and poor Dog has to wear that thing on his ankle, like he is some criminal, too sad!
3:19 am
tazpink
sh 5.14 or last 4.5 pls?
3:19 am
FranMag
i can't believe the feds are going to let him get extradited for bringing in that filth Andrew Luster!
3:19 am
tazpink
I cant believ poor dog
3:20 am
FranMag
taz, sh5/14 was a new one for me, rhymes with letting someone borrow money from you.
3:20 am
Cat9x
I know! My God he didn't do anything wrong, he brought back the man no one else could find. It's an injustice, I hope they aren't extradited to Mexico.
3:20 am
FranMag
sh4/4 is another new one, three consonants and a vowel
3:21 am
FranMag
seems like Tim is taking it harder than dog and leland.

3:23 am
FranMag
that's cool that Andrew Luster's ex-girlfriend/victim started a defense fund for them.
3:23 am
FranMag
hi marso!
3:23 am
Atalante
what happened with dog? who's andrew luster?
3:24 am
FranMag
yw m3! don't be embarrassed, sometimes the most familiar ones hide the best!!
3:24 am
Cat9x
That is very cool, I just hope there is such a public outcry that they do right by them. Murderers, rapists etc walking the streets, and they arrest them, makes NO sense to me.
3:24 am
M3
for some reason i have trouble finding words that gor from left to right!!!
3:24 am
FranMag
luster is the grandson of max factor who escaped prosecution for multiple rapes by running away to Mexico
3:25 am
Cat9x
Andrew Luster, heir to the Max Factor empire
3:25 am
FranMag
Dog found him in Mexico, but got arrested himself because bounty-hunting is illegal in Mexico.
3:26 am
Cat9x
He used the date rape drug on women, and filmed what he did to them.
3:26 am
FranMag
and now dog has to go in front of an extradition hearing to see if he gets sent back to Mexico to stand trial for it.
3:26 am
Cat9x
This was 2003 I think
3:26 am
Atalante
urf!!! that makes sense *sigh*
3:27 am
FranMag
that's when he was caught
3:27 am
FranMag
m3 has to do with the pursuit of pleasure
3:28 am
Cat9x
he7/40, he +rhymes with gin and t****

Kate44
i'm new to this, will someone please tell me what the numbers mean what you're giving hints?
11:54 am
Sephiroth
hehehe...thanks.flask..i needed that, don't worry!
11:55 am
Jaime
basically, the first number is the number of letters in a word. 4 means it's a four letter word. the second number is the number of points possible for that word. the points are listed on each letter, so the g will give 3 points to the word.
11:55 am
Sephiroth
i'm so tired of looking that helped..
11:55 am
Kate44
got it, thank you so much
11:56 am
Jaime
also, the longer the word, the more points you get. 4 letter words are 1 times the total, 5 letter words are 2 times the total, 6 letters words are 3 times the total, etc.
11:56 am
Kate44
alright, i think i understand it now
11:57 am

12:01 pm
Sephiroth

when you change babble to babbling, you have made a present participle
12:06 pm
Jaime
present tense ends in an 'e' usually. present participle ends with 3 letters meaning you keep do*ing* it

That will be a very special time for you Sprite. Would have been v comforting for her to be surrounded by people who loved her. I am so sorry for you for your loss.
4:14 pm
sprite
It went so very fast. About 2 months she discovered a lump in her breast. Yesterday she was scheduled for her first chemo, but when she got there, by ambulance, it was clear that chemo no longer was indicated. They said she would die in a couple of days. It was only hours. It was very, very good to be able to be with her until the very end.
4:15 pm
pida 1
With her passing, a little bit of all of you went with her. But remember, a large bit of her remains with you, to comfort you. She was blessed to have her friends with her, to help her go.
4:17 pm
sprite
Thanks, all, for your comfort :)
That's exactly how it feels, pida, it is so true. We went with her for a part of the way, and it is somehow hard to come back here. I will babble a bit and chat, and then sleep. That will help!

A compelling argument for early detection ..

{{{sprite}}}
4:22 pm
metaleather
well said torgone, a compelling argument indeed
4:22 pm
sprite
The detection was very early, that is the saddest part. They removed the lump and it was so very small, they were actually certain they were in time. Only when they checked further, there were shadows on some bones, and then the mri showed it was cancer too, of an extremely aggressive type. It ate away our friend in only a couple of months.
4:25 pm

Sprite, I'm very to hear of your loss. I lost my Dad to the big C. He was fine, got sent home from the docs a couple of times, then one day the doc sent him straight to hospital, within a couple of months he dwindled away to nothing. It is an awful awful thing to witness and my heart truly goes out to you. Find the strength in the beauty of your friends life, you will never forget her.
4:25 pm

Hi sprite, I'm very sorry to hear that. I'm a breast cancer survivor myself, it's always sad to hear about those who didn't make it...

4:27 pm

we don't know each other, but you have my condolences and prayers. God bless both you and her.
4:27 pm
sprite
Thank you all for your kind words. It helps to be able to chat a bit like this and feel this kind of support. I am very grateful we could be with her. Remembering her will always bring a smile to our face, though we cry a lot too now. No harm in doing both at the same time :)
4:29 pm
Tiny
Sprite I too am a Cancer survivor all I can say to you is at least she is not in pain anymore and she went quickly in the end I will lift and your families up in prayer for comfort and understanding
4:29 pm
sprite
((((sukee)))) That is great! We were told that the aggressiveness of this type of cancer is very rare, the odds should have been so much better for her if it hadn't been this aggressive, but it wasn't to be.
4:31 pm
sprite
Very true, Tiny, thank you. The cancer was in her bone marrow and she was in agony. We are all grateful the suffering is over and she is in peace now.
4:32 pm
lynxxx
Can I please put in a word to support cancer research of any type. They are constantly finding new and more effective ways to beat cancer and, as it will invariably touch all of us in one way or another, then it is in all our interest to support it in any way we can. I am another cancer survivor.
4:32 pm
Tiny
hearing about the ones who didnt make it is hard for us survivors to as we dont understand why it happened to them but we were saved. I myself was told I only had six weels to live but God had other plans and healed me in three so I first believed I was going to die then they told me I was going to live very hard to understand
4:33 pm
sprite
It warms my heart to hear there are so many survivors here. ((((Tiny)))) That is really miraculous, and I can imagine it being very hard to understand.
4:36 pm
Tiny
Do you know it has been nearly twelve years but I still get teary eyed when I think how close I came to being with Our Father in Heaven and not seeing my children grow up

5:08 pm
renfield
brrrrrr fiz!
5:09 pm
TheFiz
yeah, i can't say that was one of my more brilliant moments - standing there shivering, waiting for the water to warm up.
5:09 pm
renfield
hahahaha and you didn;t get out of the shower?hahahahaha
5:11 pm
TheFiz
yeah...no. you know when you get up and it takes the water a while to get hot - so i thought it would just take a little longer b/c the water hadn't been run in 5 days. and of course i was running late, which is a big no-no after time off. pretty much sucked. but - not this time, the swiss-cheese-fiz-brain was conditioned through aversion therapy to rmember this time.
5:12 pm
renfield
that would do it for me fiz! no hot water no shower!
5:13 pm
