12:23 am
MLFAN17
yeah both my cats are weird too lol
12:23 am

I'm told calicos have short fuses and my dear old girl does NOT want her nails cut
12:52 am
MLFAN17
oh geez that is terrible lol
12:53 am
Atalante
this is the other difference between UK and US torties. All UK torties are soppy little docile lapcats. US ones have a reputation for having short fuses
12:53 am
GreyWoulf

herinfernallady

i have had and loved cats all my life and the only cat that i have ever met that I don't like is a tortie. I took care of the cat and house for 2 years for a friend. Peed and hissed and spat and just is a miserable little thing. Never thought i'd actually hate a cat
12:55 am

Hi rose
12:55 am
GreyWoulf
I have changed my icon to a pic of her
When we brought her home, she was sooooo tiny -- she fit in the palm of my hand. I was so enamored of her that I don't think I let her feet touch the ground for more than an hour altogether in the first 24 that she was in the house
12:55 am
Atalante
and I have never come across a tortie thats even looked mean when annoyed LOL
12:55 am

12:58 am
GreyWoulf
Actually, she is a magpie, because she doesn't have the bowtie -- but she is a luvvy pie -- also she has an unusual tail marking - instead of a white tip, she has a three inch band about an inch from the end of her tail -- so she has her own flag

The windmill theme makes me think of our car tirp through the western U.S. this summer. We were on the way to Las Vegas and approached the Mojave Desert and saw that fabulous windmill farm up on the mountain ridge. What a sight that was. We must have taken 50 pictures! Wind power....!!!

3:36 am

it is a bit muchish at the start, Chris, or it was for me, anyway. If you want, go to account (top right link) and see your invitations at the upper right listed.
You can click one, add the application and then look at your profile to see the effect.
3:37 am
sprite
Will be thinking of you and your wife, spellit, take care! *hug*
3:37 am
dcseain
yes, quite overwhelming at first, chris

FranMag
bye spellit!

what i do chris is accept all the invitations and then delete the app later if i don't get much use out of it. (on facebook)
3:38 am

7:39 am
bbnaz

7:40 am
Merk
Nah, hard to visit down there.
7:40 am
Merk
And then the two little ones will think they want to also
7:40 am
bbnaz
well since you were so nice to invite, if I am in the vicinity, I will bring my own....
7:40 am
Merk
Two and three year olds are very impressionable
7:41 am
NonoNanette
thanks for the invite Merk it would be lovely but I think it might be a bit difficult to make it there in time
7:41 am
Merk
Hey, that's what they make folding chairs for, right
7:41 am
Merk
Perhaps another time. Write first, I'm rarely home, usually just to make turkey, open Christmas presents, and that's about it.
7:42 am
NonoNanette
if I ever get out your way i certainly will let you know
7:43 am
Merk
Great! Getting back to the grid, we have not had very many r tiles this week
7:43 am
NonoNanette
no we havent...... didn't even notice that it was absent today
7:44 am
NonoNanette
i bet its the first thing lori noticed tho :)
7:44 am
Merk
It produces so many more words.
7:45 am
carleekat
i noticed
7:45 am
carleekat
probably why I flew through today's grid
7:45 am
Merk
Personally, I love the challenge of tons of c words. Yesterday I was in my glory, especially without a list in the morning.
7:46 am
Merk
Actually, my mind must be elsewhere. They are not flying off the grid as they sometimes do. Sometimes I have to duck.
7:48 am
fruittart
any one know what happand to lori?
7:48 am

crpw -- i am making oyster dressing for my dad (he is the only one who wants it). outside of the turkey
8:41 am
flosey
that sounds good bbnaz, but definitely outside of the turkey - can't imagine them combined
8:41 am
bbnaz
when i was growing up, my mum would stuff the neck cavity with the oyster dressing and use the main cavity for the regular stuffing
8:45 am
flosey
interesting bb, I use to stuff the neck with sausages
8:46 am
bbnaz
sausage went into the main stuffing.........
8:46 am
bbnaz
i would eat only the drumstick, stuffing and smashed potatoes
8:46 am
flosey

hi donens
10:18 am
Dorens
angelinia do you have a guidance counselor in your school?
10:18 am
angelinaxox
yes i do
10:19 am
angelinaxox
yes we have a new one this year, our other one retired last year
10:19 am
cupcake47
sorry i spelt your name wrong all i asked for was a clue dorens
10:19 am
Dorens
Does she work with your kids? reason I ask, I'm a K-8 counselor, and I find I'm asked increasingly to work with K kids and find it more challenging than 8th graders!
10:21 am
Dorens
cupcake I've seen you on here three or four times and t's always the same. we don't give clues the way you ask, and you've been told that with much patience by several players, and you say they're being mean, and it's not the case at all. Can't you play our way or find somewhere else to chat with others your age?
10:21 am
angelinaxox
she doesn't have any of my kids this year, but i have had a few in the past that needed help
10:21 am
Dorens
and do you know what she did with them? (i take them to my office and we play games and talk about taking turns, etc. but i'm not sure that coming out of class really helps them)
10:22 am
Sugerpig
well said dorens
10:22 am
lots
is 5/10 please x
10:22 am
angelinaxox
i know my old counselor used to have them draw pictures of their family and different things while she was talking to them, but i'm not sure what else she did
10:23 am
angelinaxox
i could ask my new counselor what she does with kindergarteners when she takes them, if you'd like
10:23 am
angelinaxox
hi pam
10:23 am
Dorens
yeah, we do that sort of thing too. and they talk about that.. it just seems to me they're too y oung for me to be any more effective than the teacher. but if you guys feel that it helps then it's worthit. Hi Pam
10:23 am
Dorens
is is like the sound you make when you put two lips together and blow
10:23 am
pam
Hi, angela and Dorens!
10:24 am
cupcake47
well dorens im sorry my friends keep buging me and im sorry but all i asked for was a clue and other people give other people clues so thats not realy far to me.
10:24 am
angelinaxox
i think that is why my new counselor doesn't really take any kindergarteners, but i don't really have anyone who has issues this year
10:24 am
pam
I wouldn't have minded 400 words, LOL
10:24 am
cupcake47
dorens i am realy sorry
10:25 am
Dorens
thanks angelina.... i really do have things to do with them, just unsure if it makes sense with kids that young. and no pam, no 400 words, not when i have a house full of people and food to get together
10:25 am
cupcake47
dorens are going to talk to me?
10:25 am
Dorens
just play by our rules, cupcake and we have no problems. as y ou've been told umpteen times..don't just ask for rules, ask for specifics
10:25 am
pam
Ahhh, Dorens! I have no plans--fell through--so have football, reading, and etc...
10:26 am
Dorens
i'd tell you to come on by pam, but i'm in jersey, not cambridge

10:28 am
angelinaxox

4:41 pm
KatieMcG
It was both good and bad. The weather was fantastic, hotel very very basic and there was a lot of hassle. The normal people are the kindest you could every meet, but there are bumsters who are just trying to get money out of you and they can be quite forceful.

KatieMcG
Going to the school was great though and Musa started on the 1st monday he was there so at least that went well :-)
4:42 pm
montreal13
last part pretty bad katie - not to be indiscreet but were there men in your group (if it was a group) ?
4:44 pm
KatieMcG
Yep, they didn't seem to mind. If there were two of you they worked in a pack to split you up. I certainly wouldn't go there if I wasn't with a man, and I'm not normally a shy and retiring type. It's just a shame as most people were fantastic
4:45 pm
montreal13
ok - would you recommend the trip to others then katie ? or was this bad part bad enough no tell others to stay away ?
4:46 pm
montreal13
fireworks...
4:46 pm
BNLboy
how many words are there today?
4:46 pm
KatieMcG
Unless you can be really strong and don't mind the hassle I wouldn't recommend it. People on holiday there fell into two camps, those who go back every year and those who would never go again. We were quite lucky as we were adopted by a local who looked after us out of friendship rather than with demands for money, but many people stopped in the hotel
4:47 pm

Hi angel -- sorry! I missed your arrival!
6:21 pm
jillibus
did you do a turkey, stid?
6:21 pm
Angelsong
my husband is a gem. he did wuite a bitof unpacking today while I was at work. I normally ask to work on Thanksgiving, and I have tomorrow off.
6:21 pm
stidmama
nope. having smoked salmon from a box today. We are baking a pumpkin pie, and I made oyster dressing and chestnut soup...
6:22 pm
Angelsong
quite a bit of unpacking, I meant. I can't type.
6:22 pm
stidmama
yay for angelhubby! are you in your new home now, or still set for middle of next month?

*tosses hat in air* YIPPEEE!!!!!!!
6:23 pm

Lovely sunny day here, and we had our Thanksgiving on October 8 but I skipped the turkey and festivities, of which there were none in this house!
6:23 pm
jillibus
Yay for angel!!!
6:23 pm
Angelsong
I made it through closing....but I cried when she put the keys to the house in my hand.
6:24 pm
Angelsong
it is everything I hoped for..and then some!
6:24 pm
stidmama
we aren't festivitying either Jill -- holidays are horrible times, but we enjoy the quiet day at home. It was lovely here too, but I didn't get outside because I was in the kitchen or trying to write on this horrible stupid story.
6:24 pm
stidmama
so glad, Angelsong -- you really deserve this wonderful home!
6:25 pm
Angelsong
it is so peaceful here....and much larger than we thought it would be.
6:26 pm
stidmama
Are you finding things to be well laid out? One of the disadvantages of our buying a house without ever living in a full-size place before was misunderstanding how the layout affects furniture placement, traffic flow, etc.
6:27 pm
stidmama
Jill, give me a push on the PI 5/18, will you?
6:27 pm
jillibus
stid, do you like Rice Pi5/18?
6:28 pm
stidmama
thanks jill!
6:28 pm
jillibus
angel, I've just been cruising your house via you flickrs -- lovely!
6:28 pm
Angelsong
it is perfectly laid out for our needs. the kitchen looks like it has less cabinet space than the old apartment, but it does not. it actually has more.
6:29 pm
stidmama
very good! Ours looked like it had more space, but we still have things on the counters that we need but can't store...
6:29 pm
stidmama
how about the pi 5/20?
6:30 pm
stidmama
or the PS 6 (I got the four on my own already)

OssieA

The Random House Dictionary notes that: "The term Canuck is first recorded about 1835 as an Americanism, originally referring specifically to a French Canadian. This was probably the original meaning, though in Canada and other countries, "Canuck" refers to any Canadian." [1]
11:09 pm

11:10 pm
jillibus
Some of us are Canajan, eh?

You should all be reading into that "it's too far to just nip out and take him what he forgot". At 8:00 when he was getting ready for bed, I asked him to place some thing by the front door, and it turned out that NOTHING was in the car yet!
11:38 pm
dcseain
typical, stid
11:38 pm
stidmama
And then... half an hour after he went to bed he re-emerged, on a frantic hunt for the music he will need! Which I had assumed was at school with his trumpet. *sigh*
11:39 pm
rolin
how old is he stid?
11:39 pm
dcseain
oh, out at the fair grounds, jilli, on York Rd?
11:39 pm
jillibus
stid -- do you see the comic strip "Zits"? SO typical!
11:39 pm
stidmama
a teenager rolin, a high schooler, old enough to have figured out that maybe I know what I am trying to help him with, and arrogant enough to think he knows better.
11:39 pm
dcseain
Zits is wonderful!
11:40 pm
stidmama
seain, that will be lovely for you! I hope your drive to their place will be pleasant.
11:40 pm
stidmama
I actually read comics only infrequently. Between this game, the other game I play and the many tasks I have around here... I just don't make time for newspapers or comics any more.
11:40 pm
rolin
lol..and if hes a trumpeter that might have something to do with it too...i raised one of those...and we many a quick trip back to school before a band gig
11:40 pm
jillibus
Don't remember, dc -- race course? I remember being at a show and wanting to phone a cousin in Rockville but couldn't because it was illegal or something to phone from the site
11:41 pm
dcseain
i'm sure it'll be a lovely drive, it's a bout an hour from my house.
11:41 pm
stidmama
yep, how ever did you guess his instrument??? rofl... he's been playing over half his life now (started at 7, lessons at 8). It's a Life, not a "lifestyle" apparently.
11:41 pm

Stid, Zits might just keep you sane -- I'll try to find a website

I don't suppose anyone wants to warn me about the up and coming trombone player?
11:42 pm
rolin
oh yes... and now my son is a pro muso...and teacher..
11:42 pm
rolin
lmao... you almost have your own brass section
11:43 pm
stidmama
so there's hope? *bright smile*
11:43 pm
rolin
absolutely... now hes meticulous about his music..his instrument.. cos its his bread and butter
11:43 pm
stidmama
we almost do. I don't play wind instruments, but I can sing loud enough to be heard over them, so sometimes I'll take a descant when they're practicing.
11:44 pm

i did it for years, and my cousin, who's in grade 7 this year, plays bass, and i know he'll love it as much as i did. Plus, since he lives in Cleveland, OH, he'll be a novelty, as he won't be from VA, MD, DC, nor WV
11:49 pm
stidmama
good for them, rolin - and for you. I think music may be the best gift we can give our children, even if they leave off playing an instrument later in life, they will remember so much.
11:49 pm
rolin

11:51 pm

there isn't a summer school that does that, but the younger kid participates in their youth orchesta's two-week program each summer. The older kid was too old to participate when we learned about it.

I loved my aborted piano lessons -- aborted because of so many moves, wartimes and such besides no money for so long, and no piano!
11:51 pm
stidmama
what great instruments! our trombone player is also a fiddler... he loves it. And he's very good. Plays in the group that one of his school's teachers put together to teach kids.
