2:09 am

the crazy custody issues arent at stake here but the biggie is that he is off overseas for three months at the end of the month and says that he will still pay the mortgage but doesnt intend to give me an allowance towards the boys

2:13 am

groovy, is your email address @net instead of .net?
2:13 am

Actually, Kiwi. That's not wholly true. Depends how shifty you want to be about it.
2:14 am
GroovyKiwi

they do but i dont think he will contest me having custody because he couldnt look after them with his shift work
2:14 am
GroovyKiwi

it is over here moonie
2:14 am
moonwoof

But it seems to me that 3 months this spring you could have a "garage sale" and take cash for the stuff and ferret it away, if you felt justified.
2:14 am
GroovyKiwi

the biggest bugbear is the house - neither of us can afford to live here on our own but neither of us can afford to buy either of us out
2:15 am
pinkhatlil

LOL sounds like a good plan GK...surely if you bought most of the possessions, your entitled to them, or at least dispute them?
2:15 am

spring? lol its coming into autumn here soon
2:15 am

Well, while that May be true, kiwi. That doesnt mean there isnt a way Around it.
2:15 am

2:15 am

my lawyer has already told me
2:16 am
GroovyKiwi

i have a relatively new bedroom suite which im still paying off and he could take half of it if he wanted it and id still have to finish paying it off
2:16 am
moonwoof

And I forgot. Spring here, fall there, but still seems possible. You have a version of craigs list, or something like it?
2:16 am
Jellen

Will he want to take 50%? My ex didn't want stuff.
2:16 am

2:23 am

well the hardest thing is that he leaves in three weeks so i cant do anything else until he gets back and considering and i quote "he cant decide if he loves me enough to want to stay married to me anymore but doesnt want to do anything about it till he comes back" crap i just have to stay in limbo until HE wants to sort it

2:25 am

Kiwi, seems to me that where he still has doubts, you can be pretty sure you don't love HIM enough anymore, so the marriage is over anyway? Perhaps you can get your lawyer moving now, and not wait for analhubby to get to business.
2:25 am
westford

what's a duco?
2:25 am
GroovyKiwi

the problem i have is emotional - i love him to bits and would have him back in an instant on my terms but i know deep down that the boys and i will be better off without him. Its just a struggle realising it
2:25 am

Kiwi, 3 months is a great time to get stuff into order for 'just in case'...keep one step (or several) ahead of him

ossie had very bad abdominal pains...she said 10 on a scale of 1 to 10...went to the hosp. in an ambulance...had some morphine for the pain...not sure if they figured out what happenen...she felt better after the drugs...went home
2:26 am
westford

I'm learning a lot of things lol
2:26 am
GroovyKiwi

actually a number of ppl have said that going through a marriage breakup is like grieving for the loss of a loved one (death) its just as traumatic and you go through the exact same emotions of love and stress and greif and anger
2:27 am

dart do you remember jemima?
2:27 am

brake fluid and very cheap bologna will peel the paint off a car, westford. My principal got polka dots =)

2:30 am
moonwoof

I had something like that several years ago, they said it was likely kidney stones, but
never
2:30 am
moonwoof

quite figured it out.
2:30 am
Frances

Groovy perhaps that is because he is struggling with his emotions and needs the time away to sort them out.n Just a thought.
2:31 am
dart001

wonder if she still has hers?... i still have mine but i guess that not usual these days
2:31 am

I hope they figure it out for her. It sucks when that stuff is a surprise.
2:31 am

frances he has two emotions - grumpy and nothing

Sunny, one of my dearest, fittest friends is in a similar boat - its amazing what we can do esp under the guidance of great caring doctors

2:42 am
westford

used to be they punished children for using their left hands so they had to learn to be right handed
2:42 am
sunny09

true lynxxx. sorry rhe replies are so spaced, feeding the horde icecream. West, all they can give him is panadol or maybe a panalgesic. He needs to be aware of the severity and rate it because it could be a relapse . He is used to it now and only really notices the big sharpies.
2:42 am
sprite

I can do most things with both hands. Like screwing in a plug, spinning wool, needlework etc.
2:42 am
Frances

As far as I know he always used both hands for everything. Great party piece. It never failed to amaze me every time he did it.
2:42 am

moonwoof

Actually if you're on a mac, you should ask Fran. I think she said she uses something else.
3:15 am
westford

I am but not with IE
3:15 am
bfsog

netscape has the same engine as firefox, so i guess your using an old account, there are a lot of browsers out there though, SeaMonkey, Flock, Opera
3:15 am
herinfernallady

Cant use IE 7 with macs? Also licketys babble expert is not mac comppatable
3:16 am

Haz1558

I just hope Movieman doesn't appear right now. He got his nose bitten off yesterday, I would fear for his head today.
4:44 am
moonwoof

Perhaps if you could help me then I could give you the clue you're looking for.
4:44 am
moonwoof

Seems possible, haz. Although if he were to ask for all the tops, like normal, that would take a while, anyway.
4:44 am
pinkhatlil

herin is having a cigarette moon
4:44 am

I know. But now it's here for when she gets back.
4:45 am

4:45 am

Bit like car crash TV today can't believe 15min spent trying to clue a couple of words!
4:45 am
moonwoof

See? Herin, for you, messages earlier.
4:46 am
herinfernallady

it appears i have them thank you and sorry about that
4:46 am
bfsog

i looked at this as soon as i got up and thought there was 200 ish words, but i got to work and i just looked at the word stats, lol
4:46 am
moonwoof

There are lots of words to pick from tonight, Mitch, and I dont clue often, on purpose.
4:46 am
moonwoof

S'okay herin. I just felt bad it was confusing.
4:48 am
herinfernallady

That is because he was rude Haz. I and others find it down right rude that he can't say Hi. Also if you were asked and here ever night when he entered and asked for all the 7 8 9 10s wtf youd be pissed off to. For a fact i was going to email him and apoligise. I was going to suggest that he goes back through the log before asking and being a bit more specific. I just got confused then as there was many clues for the same thing
4:48 am
Haz1558

Tolerance is a two way street.
4:49 am
herinfernallady

With the larger grids that is sometimes over 15 words. Tonight that amount is 78s asked for so yes that spoils the fun ALOT.
4:49 am
FMitch

I will stand up for movieman, he has asked the same question every time he babbles since he joined and we accept it as part of him. Your comments were uncalled for and rude.
4:50 am
Haz1558

We all have our own ways of tackling the grid. What if we were to object to you not using the last and asking for how many i words etc?
4:50 am
herinfernallady

I would swear but i wont as that is juvenile so lets just say that due to the fact that the british itch 2 are on im going
4:50 am
Haz1558

*list
4:50 am
FMitch

Yipeee
4:51 am
herinfernallady

Haz there was many clues and your taking it out of context Also Mis Pot Kettle who gets so pisses about an icon grow up
4:52 am
Haz1558

My objection was the way you attacked Movieman out of the blue for something he has always done. It is possible to make a point without being aggressive.
4:53 am
herinfernallady

It turns out that there was 2 in 8 / 9s so that was the confusion many clues. Haz and Fmitch you have both spoiled being in the chat for me and i loath when all you both. Haz as i said i was going to email him an apology and i did publicly apoligise to him last night.

4:56 am

perhaps being rude and calling names is not the best way to solve anything?
People can ask for clues, and other people can refuse to give them if the asking irritates them for some reason.

Hello Jellen.

Jellen

Hi, Jac!
5:32 am
Scrabbler

Good morning Babble buddies! I dropped a glass bowl of leftover salad (when I reached for something in the refrigerator) and just cleaned up the big mess in the kitchen.
5:32 am
Jellen

I'm so tired I'm not sleepy.
5:33 am
redturtlehead

Hi Scrabs...up early!!
5:33 am
herinfernallady

HI Scrabbler. Did the bowl break? if not rabbit food
5:33 am
FMitch

Hello Scrabbler and Jellen :)
5:33 am
lynxxx

Hi Scrabs - at least it wasn't a mirror
5:33 am
Jellen

Hi, Scrabbler
5:33 am
sunny09

hi Jac and Scrabbler.
5:33 am
Scrabbler

You are a zombie now, Jellen.
5:33 am
Jellen

That just about describes me all right.
5:34 am
herinfernallady

Jellen - braiiiins
5:34 am
redturtlehead

Hang in ther Jellen...
5:34 am
Scrabbler

It wasn't salad for the bunnies--was leftover from weekend dinner.
5:34 am
Scrabbler

Did you stay up all night, Jellen?
5:34 am
Jellen

Yes, I'm still awake.
5:34 am
herinfernallady

But did the bowl break and could your dropage be salvaged for the bunnies?
5:35 am
Scrabbler

Are you hoping to enter a psychotic state from sleep deprivatio
n, Jellen?
5:35 am
Jellen

That's my goal, Scrabbler!
5:35 am
Jacula

I could've done with that salad, Scrabbs. I've got to make on later.
5:36 am
herinfernallady

The longest i haven't slept for is 48 hours
5:36 am
Jacula

Hello sunny.
5:36 am
Jacula

*make one
5:36 am
Scrabbler

Lady, yes, it broke in numerous pieces. There were tomatoes and greens, but just a small amt. I keep the bunnies' greens in the original plastic bags, then make their salads in pie tins.
5:37 am
herinfernallady

drat Scrabbler that is so annoying. Maybe plastic for you too is the way to go
5:37 am
Jellen

I'll sleep pretty soon. Then the challenge will be to get myself out of the house to vote.
5:37 am
Scrabbler

Hi Sunny
5:37 am
Jacula

Think I'll make a fruit salad, too, to make up for us having chocolate sponge pudding and cream last night. *guilty smile*
5:37 am
Scrabbler

I am a registered Independent and have never changed it. So I cannot vote in primaries.
5:38 am
redturtlehead

I love fruit salad...
5:38 am
herinfernallady

Scrabbler does that mean you can only vote on the big day?
5:39 am
redturtlehead

Darn it this grid is sooo big.
5:39 am
Jellen

Chocolate sponge pudding sounds intriguing.
5:40 am
Scrabbler

Yes, Lady. I chose to be Independent because I didn't want any party to hassle me and because I don't know what Republican and Democrat really respresent anyway....and it looks like the canididates don't either.
5:40 am
Scrabbler

Jacula, is that like chocolate mousse, which I love!!
5:40 am
movieman

anyone care to chuck me a clue for the 10 before I toddle off to the moviehouse?
5:40 am
herinfernallady

OK Interesting i never understood the thing
5:40 am

I can't tell you how many phone calls I've received this week from both parties.

5:41 am
redturtlehead

Movie, unfortunately I do not have the ten...
5:41 am
Jellen

Hi, Nono
5:41 am
Jacula

Scrabbs, no. It's a chocolate sponge made in a bowl with either chocolate on top or chocolate in the middle that oozes out when you break it open.
5:41 am
Scrabbler

I don't understand politics either---seems like theatre and gamesmanship more than anything else.
5:41 am
NonoNanette

looks like a meaty grid today so I am going to dive right in.....splash!
5:42 am
Scrabbler

Go Nanette go!
5:42 am
FMitch

That has had good reviews and looks v interesting, will await your critique mm.

5:45 am
movieman

Apology accepted, herin
5:45 am
Jacula

I saw a ridiculous story in the newspaper yesterday about people walking out of the cinema and complaining etc., when they went to see 'Sweeney Todd' because they hadn't realised that it's a musical. What planet are they on??
5:45 am
ch1212

Movieman...did you like Sweeney Todd?
5:45 am
herinfernallady

Movie take lots of popcorn and go in a group movie sounds fun
5:45 am
FMitch

Didn't the film co launch it's clips on YouTube?
5:46 am
herinfernallady

Jac someone slept through the previews?
5:46 am
Scrabbler

I wait til movies are on DVD. I don't like being in a theatre anymore--too overstimulating for me and too many rude creatures.
5:46 am
sunny09

but Jac, it is advertised as a musical isn't it?? don't people read reviews?
5:47 am
Jacula

Exactly, sunny!
5:47 am

5:50 am
mrpresident

5:50 am
Jacula

But you're all okay and unhurt physically?
5:51 am

5:52 am
mrpresident

5:52 am
Scrabbler

It is time for a prayer of gratitude!! Your guardian angel protected you!
5:52 am
Jacula

I'm with Scrabbs on that one!
5:53 am
lynxxx

You obviously had a 'safe' car, thank goodness!
5:53 am
mrpresident

if I did, it would have shattered my arm and I would have lost it... not to mention other things... I am just thankful and grateful that god looked out for me

Your system has had a real shock. Your muscles may be pretty sore for the next couple days. Please be gentle with yourself and nurtured. Wish we were all there to make you tea and give you hugs.
5:54 am
herinfernallady

Yep
5:55 am
mrpresident

you can drive without comprehensive insurance, but not without compulsary third party insurance, worth $20 million
5:55 am
redturtlehead

that amazes me.
5:55 am
redturtlehead

Ahh, so that makes more sense Mr P...
5:55 am
Scrabbler

What about the other driver? OK?
5:56 am
mrpresident

he was fine... he was upset at first, but I apologised and begged for forgiveness
5:56 am
phandmd

so you weren't supposed to be in the intersection?
5:56 am
redturtlehead

Mr it seems as if it was his fault?
5:56 am
FMitch

Why did you apologise?
5:57 am
Jacula

FM - I was wondering that.
5:57 am
mrpresident

it wasn't his fault... it was a chain reaction that forced me into the intersection, I was blind sided by a massive 4WD and I moved forward into fast moving traffic
5:58 am
redturtlehead

Oh double yuck, mr p. What a horrible day. I am so sorry.
5:58 am
phandmd

so you were hit by 2 cars?
5:58 am

Ahhh, gosh it soulds like it could have been a very nasty incident all round.
5:58 am
herinfernallady

Grabs Mr PRes and tightly hugs her very gently
5:58 am
lynxxx

and haven't we all cursed the 4WDs for exactly the same thing...glad their drivers can see
5:58 am
Scrabbler

Then it really could have been worse if multiple cars had been involved.
5:58 am
mrpresident

fmitch, red, it was my fault, but it was an accident!! it was foggy and raining and the road was very wet, he couldn't avoid hitting me otherwise he would have had to veer into oncoming traffic (there was a concrete island in the middle of the road...) his car would have flipped
5:59 am
cool girl

could i please have a clue 4 the no4/4 and the pural please
5:59 am
herinfernallady

Oh thats what i had to ask MR PRes. You aren't to swamped there at the moment? i heard the rain was swampie
5:59 am
mrpresident

I just missed the second car... it was so so scary
5:59 am
FMitch

(((MrP)))
6:00 am
Scrabbler

Scary, scary situation! One that you review in your head. I had to slam my brakes the other night to avoid hitting a deer.
6:00 am
redturtlehead

Well, it seems that it was a complete accident caused by the weather and the fast traffic and there really weren't a lot of options. But I am still so glad to hear yu and everyone is alright...
6:01 am
mrpresident

this happened 12 hours ago, and only now I am able to chat about it without crying.... I had to ring lickety and I could barely talk. I then called a friend and she came to get me and took care of me all day.

redturtlehead

I need a tin hat, and some sleep. I just got very angry at a secretary who was very very rude, but in the end, the problem was somewhat my own fault. Still, she doesn't need to be so aggressively wierd, but then again, it was essentially my mistake...
6:20 am
redturtlehead

Grrr.
6:20 am

Have no fear people, it involved a piece of missing paperwork, not actual care of anyone.

6:33 am
redturtlehead

what is the theme today, though I will have no time to change.
6:34 am

I don't have a cookbook...I make my stuff from imagination
6:35 am
LoriP

6:35 am

Last week, the cashier left in the middle of my order (??) and the new girl scanned most of the next person's groceries with mine. They took items off my order, but missed a few.

I felt guilty even tho I paid for it and some of her other food!

Scarlet

monkey, he makes up words too... Frank Caliendo, a comedian, does a very good Bush, and does a decent skit on "Recordifying with a recordifier when the rodeo is on the Teeeveeee"
1:47 pm
o-o

As I've also said before: Some things are true even if George Bush believes them, but good luck getting anyone to buy that anymore.
Thomas Friedman is a columnist with The New York Times.
1:47 pm
lil*monkey

perhaps it would have been anatomically correct if the light swtich was his peepee
1:48 pm
Scarlet

Mr. Friedman is a rational human being...

1:48 pm
Scarlet

Ata, Mr. Quayle's no-no came when he corrected a schoolboy's spelling of potato/e...
1:49 pm
Atalante

1:49 pm
Krista

they have page-a-day calendars with Bushisms now..prob could have made 10 years' worth
1:49 pm
Scarlet

Ata... no blushing... YOU didn't do it! LOL

1:51 pm
Scarlet

I can't wait until Mr. Bush tries to raise funds for his presidential library... the comic book section will take up the most space...
1:52 pm

1:54 pm

1:54 pm
movieman

Never trust a Texan president, they're all as dumb as bricks

1:58 pm
Krista

they're pretty conservative (live right over the border and used to work there), so not shocked
1:58 pm
Scarlet

I'm with pabtrek.. it's more fun at home, and I don't have to worry about a serial groper who seems to be making the scene in Asheville movie theaters!
1:58 pm
Scarlet

I agree, Krista... not unexpected.
1:58 pm
Uneaixoise

yikes, scarlet!! well . . . of course, we did have a flasher in our neighborhood last week
1:58 pm

pabtrek

lol, movieman
1:59 pm
o-o

to 7 -- 2000 and certain
1:59 pm
Atalante

is it a jumper as in sweater or jumper as in hurdler?
1:59 pm
Scarlet

I honestly feel that a flasher is by far, more interesting than a panting groper...
1:59 pm
Krista

I'd like to see it! I need to get a big screen tv..it would pay for itself with the money i'd save not going to the movies..it's extortionate
1:59 pm

I have an intensive care spaniel. a bandaged paw causing much angst
2:14 pm
o-o

I expect some down time
2:14 pm
Haz1558

Did the bandaged paw also necessitate a lampshade?
2:15 pm
Atalante

2:18 pm

2:19 pm
Scarlet

Come'on baby, let's do the stroooolllll.....
2:19 pm
Atalante

2:19 pm
Scarlet

You know me so very well, Haz... LOL
2:20 pm
