about the japanese plural: I think those are words that are so incorporated into the english language that they are treated as native.

I studied japanese for about 1,5 year. It was wonderful how much the language differs from the ones I knew, and even more wonderful that my knowledge of latin helped to graps the structure of the language... while it is not at all a latin language.

4:00 am
sprite
too bad you guys do not use the expert, or at le5 have it available to use if you want to
4:01 am
sprite
lol BabbleRabble, why would that be?
4:01 am
dcseain
yes, as i said, i'll email him later for the option.
4:01 am
FranMag
yes, it doesn't work on Macs. :-)
4:01 am
dcseain
oh, then won't work on new system i'll be getting in near future.
4:02 am
dcseain
less i want to code it, which is unlikely.
4:02 am
sprite
true, Fran :(
4:02 am
FranMag
ooh, what are you getting dc?
4:02 am
dcseain
macbookpro 17, early next year, birthday treat for myself
4:03 am
Andree
hi everyone, i know i annoyed a few last time i said i think chat should only be available to pros, but must say it again
4:03 am
dcseain
firewords!
4:03 am
FranMag
actually, if i upgrade to Apple's new Leopard, it has the built in ability to run XP or Vista...hmm, that might work
4:03 am
dcseain
hi, andree.
4:03 am
Dindrane
Hurray, DC!
4:03 am
dcseain
yes, it would be a solution.
4:03 am
FranMag
hi andree!
4:03 am
dcseain
vista bites, stick w/XP Pro, fran.
4:03 am
sprite
there could be another solution though, Andree. DrG could make the chat available against paying 0,01 dollar.
4:04 am
FranMag
that sounds great dc...the macbook pro, it will come with Leopard i believe.
4:04 am
dcseain
yes, i think so.
4:04 am
FranMag
well, if i upgrade i would have to get a copy of XP to install, probably not worth all the trouble.
4:04 am
dcseain
i don't understand, sprite, you mean per sign-in?
4:05 am
sprite
no dc, a one-time fee
4:05 am
Andree
sprite, despite what a few have said its about $15 us for life, not a huge amount
4:05 am
dcseain
would need to be rather more than that to be deterrent, no?
4:05 am
sprite
kids cannot pay through internet, usually, and they would not make several accounts, so banning would be very effective even if they did pay once.
4:05 am
dcseain
i agree andree, and i'd be willing to sponsor a few people
4:05 am
dcseain
i remember when that was a lot for me.
4:06 am
sprite
Andree, I know, but for those that really do not have it, a fee of a few cents would be affordable.
4:06 am
Andree
me too dc, this is ridiculous
4:06 am
sprite
exactly, dc, I have had periods in my life that it would have been too much.
4:07 am
dcseain
fran, what's the bird, do you know?
http://ftemery.livejournal.com/4

4:07 am
Andree
sprite, to have a current internet account costs more per month, i sound a bit cynical i know, but enough already
4:07 am
dcseain
sigh, i forgot that place i type not as wide as actual chat post.
4:08 am
sprite
Andree, I hear you, but still, one cannot look into another's finances. So that is why I would propose 3 kinds of account: Free, Free with paid chat (a few cents) and Pro
4:10 am
FranMag
i don't know dc, sorry!
4:10 am
FranMag
i think the university of hawaii has a site with local birds
4:11 am

4:14 am
Andree
not really dc, flummery is whipped and set and blamange is just set
4:14 am
Haz1558
I think flummery is a softer texture, blancmange more 'defined'.
4:14 am
lshult
got the ch8 finally!!! ty. Now to look for the h8???
4:14 am
dcseain
yes, fran, that looks right.
4:15 am

That's good sprite.
4:17 am
sprite
for the Vs, think make or made empty, left, Ishult
4:17 am
FranMag
the other 3 VAs have to do with leaving a place with all your stuff lshult (va6) then build on it
4:18 am
dcseain
they va8 the premises rapidly
4:18 am
dcseain

4:21 am
Haz1558
I have some recipes for flummery, not made it though. I think it's for peach although I suppose once you have the base, pretty much anything can be used.
4:22 am
Haz1558
Right, time I was off to do some housework. I'll be back later. Bye for now!
4:22 am

4:45 am
sprite
thanks Fran :) 16
4:45 am
dcseain
i remember we we had winters here.
4:45 am
sprite
I always thought that was spelled with -ge at the end... the winter toy
4:46 am
dcseain
i'm working tomorrow day, so i won't be online until Wednesday night, probably.
4:46 am
dcseain
sleigh and sl4 are different things, sprite
4:46 am
sprite
and then what is a sl4ge?
4:46 am
Andree
also sledge
4:46 am
dcseain
sleigh usually pulled by a horse. sl4 usually manual.
4:46 am
FranMag
what's a sl4ge then?
4:46 am
sprite
penalty box, Andree!
4:47 am
dcseain
oh, right, andree, i've net seen that word in...decades i think.
4:47 am
o-o
noun: a vehicle mounted on runners and pulled by horses or dogs; for transportation over snow
4:47 am
sprite
ah, my spelling is correct as well!
4:47 am
FranMag
same as sleigh then i guess
4:47 am
Fordy
it's always got a -ge on the end over here (in britain)
4:47 am
sprite
see, that is it, thanks Fordy.
4:47 am
dcseain
in my brain sl4 and sl4ge much smaller than sleigh.
4:48 am
dcseain
ah, okay, ty fordy.
4:49 am
FranMag
that's funny, dictionary.com says sleigh is british form. :-)
4:49 am
dcseain
from a friend's juornal today: "Learned: That sometimes questions seem to close things."
4:49 am
dcseain
she also said: "Learned: driving in a very tightened bodice can really hurt your ribs."
4:49 am
granadan
Yep but sleih are mahoosive and a sledge is a weeny thin for kiddies or dogs
4:50 am
sprite
like: "Have you finally stopped beating up your wife?" ?
4:50 am
granadan
add to that do NOT lean forward over jumps when riding side saddle, you tend to break ribs as i found out
4:50 am
FranMag
ouch gran!
4:51 am
sprite
second ouch
4:51 am
dcseain
oh my! i can imagine, grana. everyone i know rides English rather than side or western.
4:51 am
granadan
own stupid fault
4:51 am
Fordy
i would go futher: don't ride side saddle, ever :P
4:51 am
FranMag
sprite, are you a police interrogator in your spare time?
4:51 am
dcseain
though i learned that mounting too far forward in an English saddle can be unpleasant if you are male.
4:52 am
granadan
Ill bet!
4:52 am
sprite
lol Fran, no, just an insider on questions that close things ;)
4:52 am
FranMag
dc, that deserves a big OUCH!
4:52 am
sprite
even desirable to avoid if you want to stay male :)
4:52 am
granadan
unless you want to sing soprano
4:53 am
o-o
I would remind sprite that conclusions based a facts not in evidence are inadmissible
4:53 am
sprite
withdrawn, your honor
4:53 am
dcseain
did th4 once riding w/a female friend, she asked if i were ready to go, and i grunted a no, she asked why, i explained, and she replied that apparently a man can know what it's like to have a period.
4:53 am
dcseain
grana, in my case it *might* get me to a tenor.
4:55 am

5:11 am
dcseain

5:13 am

5:14 am
FranMag
yes, last summer i was playing scrabble with two babblers from the ea** coast states and we'd play until i had to make dinner and they had to get to sleep!
5:15 am
FranMag
i came across an interesting new site the other day... www.bookswim.com
5:16 am
dcseain
so, 6hrs you to me, 6 hours me to sprite, 6 hours sprite to china, 6 hours china to you. :)
5:16 am
FranMag
it's like netflix for books...you pay a monthly fee and then they send you books to read...when you finish you send them back, they send you new ones.
5:17 am
FranMag
yep, isn't that cool dc? and we can hang out here all together. :-)
5:17 am
dcseain
neat. i go to BookThing in Baltimore sometimes, leave books you don't want, take ones you do, all free.
5:17 am
Andree
have the email fran, just watched the wind, excellent
5:18 am
dcseain
yes it is. people ask what i do at work and i tell them i chat with my friends in europe, australia, hawaii, nz, and the bahamas. :)
5:18 am
FranMag
cool andree!
5:18 am
Andree
we do that at our golf club, so always have something to read and others to pass books onto
5:19 am
FranMag
we have a used book store here, but i'm not finding books that i want there.
5:19 am
FranMag
and they don't have a very large selection.
5:19 am
dcseain
the College Perk in College Park, Maryland serves a similar function.
5:20 am
Andree
its such a waste buying a book and only i person reading it, i pass anything good around the whole family etc before the golf club, get my ,moneys worth
5:20 am
dcseain
netflix for books better deal than library for many people.
5:20 am
FranMag
i just need to convince my husband that spending $20 a month on this service will be worth it!
5:20 am
FranMag
i just can't stomach spending $9.99 on a paperback!
5:21 am
dcseain
i collect hardbound 1st editions, so i buy a fair number of books.
5:21 am
FranMag
see, that's different, hardbound, quality books is a far cry from a pulp paperback
5:22 am
dcseain
fran, i think it'd be well worth it.
5:22 am
Andree
in aus$ we can't buy a paperback under $20, so we share a lot, i only have to buy about 6 books a year to have a constant supply
5:23 am
FranMag
that's crazy andree, it's a good thing you can swap
5:23 am
carleekat
good day all
5:23 am
dcseain
wow. i pay US$20-50 for my hardbounds, often even when out of print.
5:23 am
dcseain
morning, carlee! :)
5:23 am
FranMag
good dc, i'm going to start my campaign tomorrow
5:23 am
Andree
sometimes on special the hardbacks are the same price as paperbacks
5:23 am
FranMag

5:44 am
carleekat
they HAVE to be able to get in to measure
5:45 am
LoriP
Details, details.... :-)
5:46 am
LoriP
I'm sure the OT's have seen it all. They're simply there to point out things one ordinarily wouldn't think of. the smaller details
5:47 am
mrpresident

Hello montreal

It was a busy day yesterday (people for lunch) and the grid was hardly worth calling a grid!
7:24 am
Haz1558
Hello Scrabbler.
7:24 am
carleekat
scrabbler... how are you... and if you don't mind.. I have a tech question for u
7:24 am
montreal13
good morning scrabbler
7:24 am
Scrabbler
Go ahead, Carlee.
7:24 am
FMitch
yes it was teeny tiny.
Hi Scrabbler and carlee
7:25 am
carleekat
mrsa is running rampent in the hospital..what do i NEED to know... other then..wash..wash..wash..wash..wash...e

7:25 am
carleekat

7:25 am
Haz1558
So it's not just British hospitals, then.
7:26 am
NonoNanette
hi Scrabbler
7:26 am
carleekat
( no..its world wide and its in schools here in NA too )
7:26 am
FMitch
I was just about to type the same thing Haz, my step dad has it
7:26 am
Scrabbler
MRSA is rampant in the community as well. We have been seeing MRSA skin infections in kids for about 3 yrs. Yes, good handwashing, and make sure that no one touches your husband without washing their hands and their equipment.
7:26 am
carleekat
ok....and I know one man in his room has an actually sore...
7:27 am
Scrabbler
Or ask people to wear gloves before they touch your husband. May I ask, how is your husband's progress?
7:27 am
Haz1558
It seems an awful shame, doesn't it? Hospitals just seem to be breeding grounds for all sorts.
7:28 am
Fiber Art
what is MRSA?
7:28 am
montreal13
we have Clostridium difficile (C. difficile) in some Québec hospitals - i think it's related to SARM, your MRSA...
7:28 am
Scrabbler
The worst place to be when you are sick is a hospital, sorry to say.
7:28 am
Haz1558
Methicillin Resistant Staphloccus Aureus. ( I think)
7:28 am
FMitch
You go in to get well and come out with somethings you hadn't bargained for.
7:28 am
carleekat
stupid is still not responding..but "i'm with stupid" is co-operating adn wiggling toes... he's able to walk with walker around PT room ( toes zip tied up so he doesn't trip over stupid...) and is able to stand on own at the bars
7:29 am
carleekat
( yeap..thats right haz)
7:29 am
Fiber Art
nm, I googled it
7:29 am
Haz1558
Hello Atalante - got your cereal?
7:29 am
Atalante
husband said something amusing the other day - "has your friend gone for her MRSA scan?" (he *meant* MRI obviously!)
7:29 am
Scrabbler
Methicillin Resistant Staphylococcal Aureus---there are some strains resistant to most all antibiotics, but we have at least 3 antibiotics that work on our local strains
7:29 am
Atalante
YES! and I'm eating a big bowl of it while drying out from dog walk
7:30 am
Haz1558
That's good, cereal is good any time of the day, I reckon.
7:30 am
Haz1558
My chance to be smug. It's dry here.
7:30 am
FMitch
and here too *grin*
7:30 am
Merk
clue for the final st 4,6 please ... do the 5 and 6 build off it?
7:31 am
carleekat

7:31 am
Atalante

7:31 am
FMitch
Sorry cant help merk, haven't started the grid today.
7:31 am
Haz1558
Well, they live in things without the final vowel, the st4 is an infection of the hair follicle in the eye.
7:31 am
Atalante
by the way, the cereal that caused so much consternation is Jordan's coconut and raisin oat muesli. Its *gorgeous*
7:32 am
Haz1558
Smug, smug, smug. What chance do I have?
7:32 am
Haz1558
It sounds gooooood.
7:32 am
Merk
ty, got those
7:33 am
FMitch
says to no-one in particular, I'm going to be doing some baking this week.
7:33 am
Atalante
*and* I went into our local Oxfam bookshop in Canterbury and they've had 3 Ist edition Christopher Tolkien books there for ages for £50 each. Too expensive. I've just eyed them. Then today I see they've reduced them to £30 each! Still expensive, but I could sell them immediately on ebay for £70 +. They came home with meeee :)
7:33 am
Haz1558
What are you going to bake, FM?
7:33 am
Scrabbler
Yummy--please send some goodies across the pond to me, please.
7:34 am

Secret? There's a secret to marriage? Personally, I recommend you have a lot of money, common sense, mutual respect, kindness and a sense of humor (not necessarily in that order).

where do you go for the other d's in the corner?

well ... the genus _Homo_ wasn't around when the pteros were ... but that's only a small quibble
10:15 am
Haz1558
Still, it made for a nice image, didn't it?

definitely!

No, I haven't. Will you dress up like Nigella to do said baking?
10:32 am
Haz1558

Hi Scarlet Happy Monday to you :)
10:37 am
Haz1558
Oh well, that's good, Scarlet. I thought maybe there was another wiccan protest around the magnolia tree.
10:37 am
Scarlet
And to thee, Oh, Patient FMitch!
10:38 am
FMitch
Curtsies to Scarlet but trips on petticoats.
10:39 am
FMitch
but doesn't drow Haz's pud - hand to Haz for tasting....
10:39 am
Scarlet
Oh, Haz... it has not stopped... I have an unusual story about the wicca... there are three in our neighborhood. Nice ladies, but distant... fine with us, we are not highly social, just pleasant to all. Since my gardens are still in full flower, I had a call to request 20 (not more, not less) marigold heads for a ceremony which takes souls to a peaceful something or other, and the flowers are used to help the "crossing"... I consented and my husband just smiles... "At least they acknowledge our existence"... LOL
10:40 am
Haz1558
Why, thank you! It's bound to be delicious, though keep it away if there's a lot of cream involved. My gall bladder has issues with cream.

Hey, kat!! Smashing game! Yep, woohoo!

10:41 am
Haz1558
Have you seen what it does to some people?
10:41 am
Atalante

10:41 am
FMitch
How interesting Scarlet.
Tiny smidge of cream Haz, all the rest is just good and yummy.
10:42 am
Haz1558
If you put some curried lentils with it.....
10:43 am
rururocks

10:43 am
Atalante

10:44 am
Haz1558
And Hobbit?
10:44 am

I should think so too!
10:44 am

10:44 am

10:44 am
Haz1558
You're welcome, ruru.
10:45 am
Haz1558
That would really rub it in, Atalante. Husband will feel the shame of it.
10:45 am
FMitch
Rubbish - I have seen them on the cooler shelf and managed to wask past them, right next to the fresh custard and the chocolate roulades and the treacle tart and the .....
10:45 am
Atalante

Haz1558
I have also witnessed them.
10:46 am
FMitch
ARGH!!! stop all this talk of such things, back you demons, back I say!!!
10:47 am
Atalante
I think I might eat some, give a bit to Hobbit, then scoop out the rest and put it in a tupperware thingy and hide in the fridge. Then show him the empty packing
10:47 am
Haz1558
If we scroll back, I think you started the talk of sweet things. You're to blame, as always, FM.
10:48 am

I was only doing it to comfort you - it's all your fault.

i try to lay out the pattern to fit the object ..I just used a saucer to make a 4x4 frame...I buy the cheap wodden frames at micheals ( the wood is unfinished and takes the adhesive well )
10:59 am
Haz1558
And let's hope you have never unwittingly broken up a priceless piece of china. Wouldn't that be awful?
10:59 am
72 Temple Owl
bye scar, hi caitlyn

11:01 am
FMitch
The fires have been in my thought all day Dr.
11:01 am
Haz1558
So you can't even get to work out your frustrations by smashing china? Your way, with the snippers, sounds much more precise.

11:03 am
caitlyn
She is a cross labrador with ??? Haz
11:03 am
Haz1558
Refreshed sounds good.
11:03 am
Haz1558
Well, if there's labrador there, the temperament should be good. Stock up, though. They like their food.
11:05 am
caitlyn
She has met all the grandchiden..and they have taken her for walks and she seems to love them..she is only 3 months old
11:05 am
Haz1558
Oh, she's a puppy, then. That'll be fun!
11:06 am
Atalante
and towels! stock up with towels!
11:06 am
caitlyn
Roll on wednesday!!
11:06 am
FMitch
and things to chew on too?
11:07 am
Haz1558
Don't be silly, FMitch - she has furniture.
11:07 am
Atalante
should we show her what lizsark's lab did as a puppy?
11:07 am
caitlyn
Going shopping tomorrow armed with a big doggie shopping list..LOL
11:07 am
FMitch
lol was just hinking that very thing
11:08 am
Haz1558
Maybe this one (being a cross) won't be quite as creative with the destruction.
11:08 am
caitlyn
If you lot put me off she will have to stay in doggie prison!! Its up to you lol
11:09 am
o-o
creative destruction .. a talent for tear-down
11:09 am
FMitch
zips mouth to save the puppy :)
11:09 am
72 Temple Owl
labs as a breed are destructive?
11:10 am
caitlyn
Oh I have been told she is cross staffodshire with labrador
11:10 am
Haz1558
Only when they're puppies - but I think Liz's lab was extraordinary.
11:10 am
72 Temple Owl
*ponders mix*
11:10 am
Haz1558
Staffies are pretty benign, aren't they?
11:11 am
Atalante
I think labs do generally like to chew though
11:12 am
72 Temple Owl
i thought staffs are the origin of the pit bull
11:12 am
Atalante
they are both bull terriers
11:12 am
caitlyn
I hope so FMitch
TO the staffs my friend has are really soft and stupid
11:13 am
Haz1558
A vet in the practice used to have a beagle who travelled around with her. That dog managed to chew most of the interior.
11:13 am
72 Temple Owl
horrible what has been done to that breed over here
11:13 am
72 Temple Owl
brb
11:15 am

cane corso is an italian origin dog - guard dog. we know it cheifly because two killed a woman in san fransicso and the trail of the owners was nationa lnews. from what i have read, they have little use besides guarding. and when one lives as close to enighbors a they do in the city it is frightening.

12:25 pm

my school district is closed today...many friends have evacuated the area
12:25 pm
montreal13
so u r CLOSE to the fires then !
12:25 pm
DR1965
Where are you dandy?
12:26 pm
Dandylyon
I am close! North of San Diego, though. I am in the Santa Clarita Valley, not too far from Magic Mountain
12:27 pm
DR1965
OK.. I am in East county of San Diego we have lots of evacs as well
12:27 pm
Dandylyon
we have had about 25 structures lost so far...not sure how many of those are home, but probably most are, plus some outbuildings
12:27 pm
Uneaixoise
stay safe . . . the pics and videos look HORRIBLE
12:29 pm
DR1965
They have evacuated hospitals, animal shelters, a very rich area of San Diego... Rancho Santa Fe, this is worse than th efires we had in 2003
12:29 pm
Dandylyon
lots of canyons make the wind very unpredictable
12:29 pm
DR1965
Yes and the winds are BAD
12:30 pm
montreal13
is this a relatively frequent occurence in your area in San Diego or are we to blame climate change ?
12:30 pm
Cheesenips
Hi I'm also in San Diego-- not personally affected yet-- live in University City area-- many friends and coworkers are being evacuated however
12:30 pm
DR1965
Hi Cheese- I live in Santee
12:30 pm
Cheesenips

12:31 pm
Cheesenips
Hi DR looks like you're ok for the time being too?
12:31 pm
Uneaixoise
Montreal, over half the US is in a bad-to-severe drought right now . . . much of it is recordbreaking
12:31 pm
DR1965
Yes, we are ok for now but it is nerve-wracking
12:31 pm
montreal13
so this is not usual in any sense then Cheese ?
12:32 pm
Cheesenips
Well we often have "Santa Ana" dry winds and low humidity conditions here
12:32 pm
Uneaixoise
and we're told that an unusually dry winter is on the way . . .
12:32 pm
montreal13
heard about the drought of course but didn't realise it was that bad...
12:32 pm
EvaNadine
fires out around the west-coast-area are not uncommon, unfortunately...
12:32 pm
DR1965
I would not say it is unusual but because thewinds are so bad, they can not use the airplanes and helicopters that would normally be available
12:32 pm
Uneaixoise
Atlanta is 80 days away from depletion of drinking water
12:33 pm
montreal13
even the St-Lawrence river gere is at almost a record-level low...
12:33 pm
Uneaixoise
really? wow
12:33 pm
montreal13
*here
12:34 pm
montreal13
apparently because the great lakes are at lower levels...
12:35 pm

12:36 pm
Uneaixoise
they were having that problem on the Mississippi this summer . . .
12:37 pm
montreal13
i better understand the SanDiego problem - cause without those water planes being able to fly, the fires are not fought with the same intensity as usual..

thank you, but I have one question!!!! do you guys ever type in a word and it is not taken (not in dictionary) and then you type it later and it is taken?
2:32 pm
Vicuna
http://nydamprints.com/holymt.html
2:32 pm
dareaper
i do that sometimes
2:33 pm
Vicuna
I think when that happens to me it can generally explained by my having mistyped the first time.
2:33 pm
Vicuna
Although I have had ones that said they took, and then later claimed still to be missing.
2:33 pm
EspritdJean
crpw I have had that experience
2:34 pm
bbnaz
nobody has a clue for that icky final SE5.12?

Thanks, Ata. I still can't quite decide how happy I am with it!
2:35 pm
Atalante
I'd be very happy if I was you! It would look amazing with a midnight blue sky ...
2:35 pm
bbnaz
Vi.....thank you thank you thank you. I was positive that I had done that MANY times but obviously not.
2:35 pm
bbnaz
did you do that Vi?
2:36 pm
Vicuna
I thought about doing dark blue. Maybe if people actually buy it I'll do a seond edition in blue later.
2:36 pm
Atalante
yes she did, she's brilliant!
2:36 pm
bbnaz
I should say so! That is incredible!
2:37 pm
Vicuna
But it's a royal hassle getting it inked right when it's big and has lots of black space.
2:37 pm
Atalante
I thought you might have considered that already. I think blue and off-white would look fab
2:37 pm
Vicuna
Awww.... *blushes*
2:37 pm
Atalante
its a challenge, dear ;)
2:38 pm
Vicuna
Well, the thing is, when it comes to the actual printing, I get bored easily. That's why I never make an edition of more than 15 of anything!
2:38 pm
bbnaz
My mother-in-law quits Vi. She has made beautiful ones for the girls
2:38 pm
Sandieangel

The very first pull is exceedingly interesting, but after that...
2:40 pm
Vicuna
Of course, I love the piecing of quilting, but get bored by the actual quilting part... Obviously a pattern here. lol
2:40 pm
bbnaz
her quilts are pieces of art. She is in her 70s and we have been blessed with many lovely ones. She is a bit of a traditionalist though
2:40 pm
Sandieangel
TY so much gracewer! That's FIREWORKS!!!!!!!!
2:40 pm
bbnaz
my gram did hooked rugs but she was very modern. I was lucky enough that when she passed away I was the only grandchild to get one
2:40 pm
Atalante
short attention span maybe?
2:40 pm
bbnaz
good onya sandie!
2:41 pm
bbnaz
44 to go for me
2:41 pm
Vicuna
I have an aunt like that. Her craftsmanship is infinitely better than mine and her quilts are exquisite, but so far she does not deviate a stitch from someone else's pattern.
2:41 pm
Vicuna
But I have a very long attention span for the the piecing or the designing or the carving parts!
2:41 pm
bbnaz
funny story was she would always fondle woolen outfits of her friends and tell them it was time to give them up so she could cut them into strips and make a rug
2:42 pm
bbnaz
she has been gone a long time and the one I was lucky enough to get is hanging on a wall in my living room.

It actually did duty at the top landing of the stairs in her house when I was growing up, but still is quite beautiful. That comes from being an artist during the depression.........make it beautiful AND functional
2:45 pm
bbnaz
nite bill. love your photos by the way!
2:46 pm
Vicuna
The first full-sized bed quilt I made I used every kind of scrap I could lay hands on, the old-fashioned way. But that means that some of the fabrics were already fairly worn and now every spring I have to patch over all the spots that wore through over the winter. So it looks a little different each year.
2:46 pm
crpw48
you are so lucky to have a quilt made by a relative bbnaz,
2:47 pm
crpw48
i made 6 quilts last year and this year and given to special people in the family,
2:47 pm
Atalante

Wow, 6 in a year! You're prolific, crpw!
2:48 pm
Sandieangel
Wow - now that I know how I've just had great fun looking up the weirder words - love the soup definition - will have to remember that one for scrabble.
2:48 pm
bbnaz
Right before we were married, she was going to sell a wedding ring quilt because she wasn't satisfied with her stitching........and I told her she could NEVER EVER sell any of them again. Unfortunately the ones that my great gram made were used till they fell apart
2:48 pm
crpw48
i made the quilt tops and hand quilted two and sent the other four to a long arm quilter lady
2:49 pm
Latibug
last word...and I need help de6/27
2:49 pm
crpw48
it is much easier that way, i will never hand quilt again
2:49 pm
bbnaz
she made beautiful baby quilts for both girls and a phenomenal king size one for my husband's 50th and then a lovely one for us.....I think there are about 12 in all
2:50 pm
Vicuna
Oh, I've never sent any of mine away. But I've also only ever hand-quilted one crib-sized quilt. Mostly I machine quilt... and not very well, either!

6:21 pm
evanonut

6:22 pm
Xanika
No trolls. However, I have been put on leave from my schol because of them!
6:23 pm
evanonut
what? huh????
6:23 pm
evanonut
how can you do that xanika?
6:23 pm
DR1965
Oh No Xanika
6:23 pm
Xanika
The troll infestation that occured last week were my naughty students.
6:23 pm
evanonut
uh oh, were you really put on leave?
6:24 pm
Xanika
The principal has put me on leave while he investigates because teir parents made allegations against me!!!
6:24 pm
Jellen
Sounds so unfair!
6:24 pm
DR1965
Thats awful
6:24 pm
evanonut
that's wrong!
6:24 pm
evanonut
are you getting paid?
6:24 pm
Xanika
I am being used as a scapegoat
6:24 pm
Xanika
Yes, I am getting paid, just as well!
6:25 pm
evanonut
well, that's just ignert, i'm sick of the things kids get away with anymore.
6:25 pm
Xanika
He is cranky with me because I have resigned from the school (because of the students' behavior, or lack of!)
6:25 pm
evanonut
where's digeridoo - his favorite word is in the grid
6:26 pm
Xanika
He has been angry with me for about the last 2 months; since I told him that I feel like a policewoman rather than a teacher.
6:26 pm
evanonut
maybe if he'd do his job you wouldn't feel that way xani
6:26 pm
Jellen
What type of school is it, Xan?
6:26 pm
Xanika
He was incenced with my comment about 'policing' the students!
6:27 pm
Jen
howdy everyone!
6:27 pm
Xanika
Well, I can't name the school! However, it is a catholic school in Melbourne
6:27 pm
evanonut
well, he can get over it, if he doesn't have you then that's more he has to deal with.
6:27 pm
Jen
Xan, did you resign, or were you placed on leave?
6:28 pm
Xanika
I had already resigned from the school. I have a position in an expensive private school for next year.
6:28 pm
Jellen
I always thought Catholic schools prided themselves on discipline.
6:28 pm
Xanika
I have been placed on leave for 6 school days, with pay.
6:28 pm
evanonut
i'll be back
6:29 pm
Xanika
Rather than accept the innappropriate behavior of the students that is giving the school a bad name, he is blaming me for the school's reputation!
6:29 pm
Jen
former teacher so I understand.... schools get testy when you criticize the students. One (of many!!!!) reason I left teaching
6:30 pm
Xanika
Jellen, they do. I have worked in another catholic school for the last 12 years. I only started at this one at the beginning of this year!
6:30 pm
inge
so now when those kids come trolling the parents cannot blame you anymore
6:30 pm
Xanika
Inge, what do you mean?
6:31 pm
Xanika
The parents made allegations that I said, in this chat, that they would end up getting raped.
6:31 pm
inge
Is your principal sure that those kids wont try playing trolls again
6:31 pm
Xanika
Who knows!
6:32 pm
inge
good grief, I didnt know it had gone to such ends.
6:32 pm
hurshy
can anyone help me with y's? i have 2 affirming words and 3 yiddish matchmaking words
6:32 pm
kristin
xanika why don't you go to archives and print out the chat? That way the principal can see their behavior and note you never made that comment
6:32 pm
jillibus
I remember opne of the trolls saying it was supposed to be the teacher's job to teach manners -- I say it's the parents' job. Where did those horrors get such foul mouths?
6:32 pm
inge
two y words have to do with rising bread dough
6:33 pm
Jellen
Ye*** helps bread rise
6:33 pm
phandmd
hurshy think leven bread

6:33 pm
phandmd
can I have clues on those yiddish words
6:33 pm
kristin
well yes Jen that's it
6:33 pm
Xanika
I have been able to think of little else. Fortunately I have a close cousin who is a lawyer and a friend who is a reporter for one of theose 'dodgy' current affairs shows who like this sort of dirt about schools, just in case I need him!
6:33 pm
phandmd
yes, Jen, that's the one
6:33 pm
inge
wrong box, Jen
6:33 pm
NonnieLight

6:34 pm
hurshy
naturally. i would miss the one i use all the time
6:34 pm
Xanika
Kristin, the principal has already printed out the log1
6:34 pm
Kaetchen
grr, sorry
6:34 pm
kristin
Xanika that is an outrage, I'm sorry you have to go through it.
6:34 pm
Jen
to make up for that snafu, ye5 and ye6(pl) is the yiddish word for a gossipy woman
6:34 pm
jillibus
Xan, I agree with kristin that you should go to the archives and print out the chat to show the principal
6:35 pm
Xanika
I have learnt a good lesson anyway, krisitn
6:35 pm
jillibus
oh -- missed that. Sorry
6:35 pm
Xanika
jili, he has it already
6:35 pm
Mooch
ea5/10 If you ate something it is ea***
6:35 pm
jillibus
It used to be that parents would back up the teacher no matter what.
6:36 pm
NonnieLight
Was there any punishment given to the kids who were here. I was on one morning when a bunch were acting up. I thought their behavior was terrible. Are the parents disciplining them?
6:36 pm
Xanika
Not the parents at this school. It is in one of the lower socio economic areas of Melbourne.
6:36 pm
hurshy
i need CSDSHSLSM
6:36 pm
jillibus
If he has the log how can he say what he did about you?
6:36 pm
hurshy
drat those s's
6:37 pm
Jen
Xan, my first year of teaching, I showed selected scenes to my 7th graders (13 years old), Forrest Gump... scenes historical in nature (like him in MLK's speech, etc) and I got called on the carpet for showing it (even tho I censored)
6:37 pm
Xanika
Because he i s trying to bluff me I think. My lawyer cousin thinks he is turning it into a witch hunt.
6:37 pm
hurshy
parents used to say... if your teacher has to whip your hand again for not knowing your lesson, i'll give you a whipping you won't forget.
6:37 pm
Xanika
e is about to be told that I have spoken to a lawyer (I already spoke to the police, and he knows this)
6:37 pm
hurshy
ah, the good old days.
6:37 pm
Jen
my mistake was not being a member of the teacher's union!!!
6:38 pm
jillibus
He sounds horrible, Xan
6:38 pm
Xanika
I just joined again this week. I have moved from another state and hadn't changed over to new union. But now I have. They were a good help!
6:39 pm
jillibus
Sounds good, Xan
6:39 pm
Xanika
I guess he is really worried. He has to attract teachers to this school. And if the reputation is bad, he won't be able to get good stafff!
6:39 pm
Jellen
ma 5/16, the first?
6:40 pm
Xanika
But, that ain't my problem!
6:40 pm
jillibus
add the sometime to the 4/6 before it, jellen

Anyway, I am enjoying my 'holiday'. Those brats still have to attend school!
6:41 pm
Jen

6:41 pm

6:41 pm
Jellen

The kids haven't been punished as far as I know. However, I had to leave them work and I made sure it is REALLY BORING ha ha ha!!!

7:09 pm
featherbee

7:09 pm
hurshy
and does the ly6 make any sense whatsoever?
7:09 pm
featherbee
so all in all a rough day. sorry you asked yet? lol! thanks for letting me vent!

hurshy
now i must find a mere one more word
7:10 pm
stidmama
my experience is that the kids at that age who are struggling are not lazy -- either they are just overwhelmed by forces outside their control (or the schools) or they have trouble
7:10 pm
hurshy
one is the loneliest number that you'll ever seeeeee
7:10 pm

A "good" beagle would be one bred to not bay just because the shadows move...
7:26 pm
hurshy
but no, not asking you to judge the beagle. asking merely if beagle=dane. and you say no. and they say "very good tyger"
