Book Doctor Gwen

oh my, skunk sgqipe is fairly common around here -- or at least it was up until a few years ago -- population must be getting very low

1:11 am

flosey

yuk dc, we use to see them occasionally back in Ontario - you hold your breath for a couple of minutes

1:12 am

moonwoof

our dogs like to go ferret them out... that's nasty for a day or two. I dont care Who says the tomato juice thing works...

1:12 am

dcseain

i'd seen deer, fox, rabbit, squirrel, deer, opossum, and turtle, that i recall off the top of hmy head, but not skunk before.

1:12 am

dcseain

skunks are rather cute

1:12 am

dcseain

i perceive them as cat-like

1:13 am

moonwoof

road turtle can be really wierd to see, sometimes.

1:13 am

dcseain

though, really, they're rather more badgery.

1:13 am

dcseain

yeah they can, moon

1:13 am

Book Doctor Gwen

we have squirrels that climb sheer brick walls around here. i guess the ones that can't climb sheer brick walls are extinct now LOL

1:13 am

rururocks

in an odiforous way

1:13 am

dcseain

eastern box turtles are hot pink inside, in stark contratst to their shells :( i'm sorry that i know that.

1:13 am

jillibus

until a Great Dane scares one -- takes a lot of tomato juice to wash out the skunk stink

1:13 am

moonwoof

i dont remember what phylum they belong to, but I want to say dog, like foxed.

1:13 am

dcseain

mayhay, gwen.

1:13 am

moonwoof

* foxes.

1:13 am

rururocks

1:14 am

dcseain

1:14 am

Book Doctor Gwen

they all belong to the same phylum we do, which is vertebrates 8-)

1:14 am

moonwoof

turtle tutus!

1:15 am

Book Doctor Gwen

one vote for urchism to be a word

1:15 am

moonwoof

1:15 am

moonwoof

dern. I dont think I'm smarter than a 5th grader.

1:16 am

herinfernallady

FYI female hygiene products apparently work well to clean off stink of skunk.

1:16 am

1:16 am

1:16 am

Book Doctor Gwen

1:16 am

Book Doctor Gwen

(although these divisions are based purely on the irrational human need ot classify things -- in nature things aren't so neat)

1:17 am

dcseain

i think she means douches, ruru

1:17 am

Andree

except for the human variety

1:17 am

moonwoof

If you Ever do Andree, don't corner them.

1:17 am

jillibus

woof -- fix your profile! Your icon isn't an insect!

1:17 am

rururocks

I think skunks are related to badgers

1:17 am

jillibus

tomato juice worked just fine

1:17 am

dcseain

an understatement, if ever, Gwen! Let's take the duck-billed platypus as an example. :)

1:17 am

moonwoof

Mahn. I dont know what I would do without you, Jilli. ty

1:17 am

Andree

i don't think they are in Aus

1:18 am

dcseain

nor is the icon i see in the grid, moon, which is different from one in ur prifel.

1:18 am

herinfernallady

OK so i should have clarified that. There are no skunks in Aus.

1:18 am

dcseain

aren't skunsk an American beast?

the notion of a species is a fluid as the notion of a language. there is really no pinning down where one ends and the next one begins, once you start to look closely

2:00 am

SamanthaJoy

My sleep schedule is unusual, Andree. Actually I've been considering experimenting with polyphasic sleep

2:01 am

moonwoof

some of us just dont sleep much Andree, saves that whole "up too late" thing. =)

2:01 am

herinfernallady

Sprite i have taken a new turning point since the end of last year. Can't bitch and whine about losing this place,. I have seen the plans

Samantha, the site does at hiccup time. Every day :P

2:02 am

OssieA

hi jili!

2:02 am

herinfernallady

furrier and leather lands

2:02 am

SamanthaJoy

Polyphasic sleep is generally many small nap times instead of one large one. There are many ways to do it, and I'm looking at taking, maybe, two hour naps every six hours instead of one eight hour sleep

2:02 am

imprint3454

need words now

2:02 am

dcseain

hi, ossie!

2:03 am

SamanthaJoy

Other people do it differently; there are lots of methods

2:03 am

OssieA

hi dc!

2:03 am

jillibus

I couldn't do that, sam

2:03 am

herinfernallady

I need sleep

2:03 am

Andree

i love getting at least 7 hours sleep

2:03 am

sprite

sounds tough to combine with a working schedule though, Sam

2:04 am

SamanthaJoy

It is. I can only do it because I work from home and have no kids.

2:04 am

herinfernallady

I need 8 hours but i store sleep

2:04 am

dcseain

at this point in my life, i function best on 9h sleep

2:04 am

SamanthaJoy

But note that the two hour schedule, every six hours, still gives you eight hours of sleep, and enough time to hit good REM sleep

2:05 am

jillibus

so do I, dc, and they say when one gets ancient like me one doesn't need so much. BS.

2:05 am

sprite

interesting, Sam. Let us know how you fare with it?

2:05 am

Andree

as i have gotten older i need less sleep onthe other hand i need a nana nap now and again

2:05 am

sprite

that is because most aren't half as active as you are, jilli!
Btw, your icon is one helluva gorgeous man!

2:06 am

SamanthaJoy

Older people (meaning no one HERE, of course *wink*) often develop polyphasic sleep patterns naturally

2:07 am

SamanthaJoy

Some people do, like, half an hour of sleep every four hours, which sounds like a recipe for a psychotic episode if you ask me.

2:07 am

SamanthaJoy

. . . . Which they haven't.

2:07 am

sprite

and what is your natural pattern, Sam?

2:07 am

dcseain

one hits REM faster with polyphasic, as i understand it

2:07 am

herinfernallady

Sam that word Polyphasic i keep reading that as Prophylactic sleep

2:08 am

SamanthaJoy

I'm a night owl. My preference is to go to sleep after my husband leaves for work in the morning, sleep about six hours, then get up.

2:08 am

SamanthaJoy

But I can't do that, because I do actually *work* from home and I need to be able to communicate with people during normal working hours.

2:08 am

moonwoof

Once one learns too, they believe so. Some people just don't work that way, tho... Just like weight and food, there's no One good way. There's only the way that's best for Your body...

2:08 am

dcseain

i need must sleep, which i think i can do now. Toodles!

2:09 am

SamanthaJoy

I know the army encourages it under some conditions, because, really, there are times when it can be bad to have a third or more of one's squad dead to the world

2:09 am

2:24 am

SamanthaJoy

SamanthaJoy

poor tyger. I wouldn't want to be forced into it

2:25 am

tygerbryght

2:25 am

tygerbryght

no, moon, not well at all, but I've no choice

2:26 am

sprite

and no way to break the new pattern?

2:26 am

2:26 am

moonwoof

I empathize, tyger. Sorry to hear.

2:26 am

tygerbryght

thx, moon. I cope. not asking for sympathy, tho empathy is welcome :)

2:26 am

SamanthaJoy

I just passed the halfway point, which is my cue to go get my few hours of sleep.

2:26 am

SamanthaJoy

l leave you with two things:

2:26 am

tygerbryght

no, sprite. chronic pain is likely the cause

2:26 am

sprite

sleep well, Sam

2:26 am

moonwoof

I really didnt mean pity or sympathy. I understand that too =)

5:16 am

herinfernallady

We did a budget and its kinda scary how much we can save

5:17 am

redturtlehead

Oh Doxy is gone.

5:17 am

Angelsong

red, you are so nice!

5:18 am

redturtlehead

Angel, I couldn't have the wrong Birthday song!!!

5:19 am

redturtlehead

Herin, thats great that you are seeing some places to save!!

5:19 am

herinfernallady

B.f and I worked out how much we can drop into the account

5:19 am

redturtlehead

How is the grid anyway, Iam just starting missed the flip.

5:20 am

herinfernallady

about $600 a fortnight Red

5:20 am

redturtlehead

Thats super Herin.

5:21 am

ursh

Hello all back for last few

5:22 am

redturtlehead

Hi ursh.

5:22 am

herinfernallady

Yep its awesome. Best thing is i get $50 a week play money, aka what if cash

5:22 am

herinfernallady

Hi Ursh

5:22 am

NonoNanette

Hi ursh

5:22 am

redturtlehead

Has anyone seen/heard formMr P?

5:22 am

herinfernallady

yes

5:22 am

herinfernallady

She and lickety had tea tonight

5:23 am

redturtlehead

good,I guessitsthe end of the V. Day for you all.

5:23 am

ursh

Herin - I am a bookkeeper - very good at drawing up budgets - but then I am a woman - very bad at sticking to them

5:23 am

redturtlehead

Seems alot of the same words from yesterday are in here...

5:24 am

herinfernallady

Ursh so am i.

5:25 am

herinfernallady

But we have to

5:25 am

ursh

discipline discipline discipline is the magic word

5:26 am

herinfernallady

I said to b.f its only for a couple of months till we move and we can still 'eat out' just have picnics and that kinda thing

5:26 am

redturtlehead

Eating out always destroys my budget and sometimes my waistline. I am attempting to lose about 10 pounds inth next 8 weeks...

5:27 am

ursh

Better for your diet to create your own "eat out" food

5:28 am

herinfernallady

Red its better to remember this: If you spend $50 a week on take out/ coffee/ snacks useless food that equals $2400 a year over a 48 week period (average working year)

5:29 am

herinfernallady

Also i have came up with the idea of rotating meals.

5:29 am

redturtlehead

I actually havent eaten out in a long time... But I am on a slight Vaca in March and will probably do some good eating then.

5:29 am

redturtlehead

but yes, especially coffees,they just kill the budget, luckily, no coffee shops within miles of here.

5:31 am

herinfernallady

Well you kinda get my drift. I converted heaps of people when i was working. I used to given shite for bringing in breaky, coffee and lunch till i gave them the math and they went OH

5:32 am

bfsog

im eating out tonight (hey all) they have put on some valentine menu

5:32 am

NonoNanette

it really is amazing how quickly those "liitle" purchases of coffee etc. add up

5:34 am

herinfernallady

But see BFs thats why you do the little savings so you can go out and have fun. Its also my doctor recomended. He does it too. Bring lunch to work $5 -10 in money box, ride bike to work tram fair in box

5:36 am

redturtlehead

It's nice to eat out once ina while,but, I admit, that I know it just loads on calories. I need to actually up my contribution to retirement savings.

5:36 am

herinfernallady

Right now i have $50 a week play money (what if cash)

5:36 am

bfsog

yeah, im pretty bad, i should bring a pack lunch to work cos im about Â£2 to Â£4 a day, thats around Â£20 a week. im also Â£50 in petrol/gas to commute to work, i dont fancying cycling all the way!

5:36 am

redturtlehead

Coffe from the shop is my true vice. So I suppose I am saving probably close to 500 dollarsover thesethree months.

5:36 am

herinfernallady

Red i find making stuff much more enjoyable than buying cake muffins etc

5:37 am

redturtlehead

wind is starting to blow, so I guess I am getting Doxy's nasty weather.

5:37 am

herinfernallady

I used to bring coffee bags into work or a plunger and grinds depending on time

5:37 am

redturtlehead

LOL, herin, I can not remember when I last ate cake or muffins...

5:37 am

redturtlehead

except the fake ones in the PB.

5:38 am

NonoNanette

FIREWORKS for me!

5:38 am

bfsog

someone should come up with an image representing what they think the PB looks like.

5:39 am

redturtlehead

Yaaay NoNo!!!

5:39 am

herinfernallady

Yah NONO.

5:39 am

herinfernallady

Also if its home made and you break open the cake the calories fall out

5:39 am

redturtlehead

that wouldbe nice herin!!

5:40 am

herinfernallady

Well you know what you put in there. I only make cupcakes or cakes if the sugar monsters are over

5:40 am

redturtlehead

Yo u know, I am thinking I do not like this grid at all...

5:41 am

redturtlehead

I don't really even eat bread. Now that said, I eat a ton of food. People are surprised how much I hoover, but..

5:41 am

redturtlehead

not bread.

5:41 am

redturtlehead

or cakes.

5:41 am

herinfernallady

I ahve 33 left

5:42 am

redturtlehead

I have 73, but I only started 20 min ago...

5:42 am

herinfernallady

LOL RED

5:42 am

redturtlehead

5:51 am

redturtlehead

Well, I have found the apartment, now, I just have to find the darn job...

6:03 am

herinfernallady

MOst of my clothes are really ancient and tacky are 300 pound mommma size

6:04 am

redturtlehead

new clothes are important, they dont have to be very expensive.

6:04 am

herinfernallady

I found a few lovely t shirts for $5 the other day

6:04 am

herinfernallady

I found a few lovely t shirts for $5 the other day

6:05 am

herinfernallady

Ok that was frecking creepy. I swear i just heard a wolf howl and we don't have wolfs here and no neighbours have dogs

6:06 am

redturtlehead

Could be as tray,or maybe someone gota new doggie..

6:06 am

redturtlehead

Ooh I am half way.Ibelieve I shall pay Lickety a visit.

6:07 am

helenary

please. a clue for the ch 7 and 8??

6:07 am

herinfernallady

Actually i think it was sound distortion from a train hoot down the road mixed with sound from across the road. When its really quite i can hear far

6:09 am

herinfernallady

Oh this is awesome. There is a wolf park in the states that have interns one of the quiz questions is Do you mind swapping your usual erfume/aftershave for Eau du dead deer?

6:09 am

redturtlehead

dont have it helen.

6:09 am

herinfernallady

Ch 7/8 you get soot in it and a ? sweep cleans it out

6:09 am

dromano66

6:11 am

hydra

Hi infernal, redturtle, dromano, helenary. Any got clues for the ch 7 and 8 please?

6:11 am

herinfernallady

Can someone stick me on a plane i wanna go see the wolves

6:11 am

hydra

Oh, sorry! Just seen your clues.

6:11 am

redturtlehead

Cn I just state that I am annoyed. I have to pay 222 dollars US tothe dtate of fl to get a legal right to practice in their state, and then I am unsure if there will be a job I want.

6:12 am

helenary

great clues

6:13 am

redturtlehead

Hi Hydra.

6:14 am

herinfernallady

Sod that Red

6:16 am

redturtlehead

And I can't wait because it takes about 6 weekstoprocess theflipping FBI check...

6:16 am

herinfernallady

I wannna see the puppies

6:18 am

herinfernallady

Red is it like that everywhere?

6:20 am

redturtlehead

No,there are24 states in a compact, so I need not get a new liscence. I just work off my Home one. Then the others have varying requirements...forcontinuing education etc. Most cost about 80-90 dollars, My head hunter will reimburse, but only if we find a job there.

6:20 am

herinfernallady

ok

6:21 am

redturtlehead

Florida tends todiscipline nurses more often, so I guess the boardsneeds more money.

6:21 am

herinfernallady

Is it kinda creepy that listening only i can tell that a wolf is not a wolf but a coyote in just a howl not a picture image?

6:22 am

redturtlehead

I tend to be lazy and usually only work compact, so this Florida thing is a pain.

6:22 am

redturtlehead

Coyotes sound really differnt than wolves.

6:23 am

herinfernallady

I have never heard a coyote that is why i thought it eas strange

6:24 am

redturtlehead

I am worried about this weather.

6:24 am

herinfernallady

Snowing?

6:24 am

redturtlehead

7:06 am

Aloyisius

7:07 am

mrpresident

RTH! that is ready to heat!

EspritdJean

scrabbler, your comment, sleep well, RTH

mrpresident

redturtlehead ... is RTH... I am just mucking with the letters

EspritdJean

EspritdJean

I think Aloy has got it

7:10 am

mrpresident

7:11 am

Aloyisius

7:11 am

Scrabbler

Hi Jean

EspritdJean

hi MrP congrats on your move

7:11 am

EspritdJean

hi doc

7:11 am

mrpresident

thank you!

7:12 am

mrpresident

I swear it has almost killed my spirit, but am seeing the benefits day by day.

7:12 am

periwinkle

brb

7:12 am

EspritdJean

I can appreciate it. I sold my house this time last year and moved in April. I will not move again until I'm dead

7:12 am

mrpresident

My daughter got a valentine's day card and gift today.... she was finally a 'valentine'

7:12 am

Scrabbler

Look ahead, mrp, to where you want yourself, the family, and the house to be in 2 wks, 4 wks, etc.

7:13 am

EspritdJean

I just spent 2 weeks with my son in Vietnam

7:13 am

Scrabbler

July will be 19 yrs in this house and I plan to stay here til I am dead or go to an assisted living center.

7:14 am

mrpresident

and she got it from the school bully! LOL! so now my kids are totally protected!! No one messes with them now.

7:14 am

Scrabbler

Wow, how was your trip, Jean?

7:14 am

EspritdJean

I was 26 years in my house

7:14 am

mrpresident

scrab... you will never need assistance! you are magical

7:14 am

EspritdJean

the trip was wonderful and interesting

7:14 am

Scrabbler

One of my upcoming projects is to toss much of what I have needlessly collected and stored over the years.

7:15 am

periwinkle

what does the 8 start with please

7:15 am

mrpresident

our project is to have a garage sale and ebay heaps of stuff!

7:15 am

mrpresident

I think it might be ch??

7:15 am

AsGreen

goooooooooooood morning!

7:15 am

Scrabbler

mrp, I tell my nephews: when I am old and in the nursing home, you need to turn me from side to side, know when to tell the staff to change my diapers, read to me, etc.

7:16 am

Scrabbler

Hi greenblatt!

7:16 am

mrpresident

ah, yes, ch7 and ch8

7:16 am

mrpresident

hi green!

7:16 am

AsGreen

lol my first word was smelly

7:16 am

periwinkle

I plan to just drop dead, no assisted living or nursing home for me!! or die in my sleep at home

7:16 am

mrpresident

I must ask a question... with honest to good earth answers please??

7:17 am

Scrabbler

That would be my preferred choice too, Periwinkle. I want to die in the woods.

7:17 am

Scrabbler

phantom : change

7:17 am

periwinkle

waiting, mrp...

7:18 am

AsGreen

me too...what could it be?

7:18 am

Scrabbler

Planet Earth is round! That is my honest answer.

7:19 am

mrpresident

I am looking after a child whose mother is away alot

7:19 am

AsGreen

big build up here....ask away MrP!

7:20 am

mrpresident

she told her mother (unknown to me) that she would not be giving anyone a valentine's day card... I asked her if she would and she said yes, so I assisted her with a roses are red, violets are blue poem

7:20 am

mrpresident

her mother found out that I had assisted her in putting together an anonymous note to a boy.... no way he would know

7:21 am

AsGreen

how old is this kid....and the boy....and what did the note say?

7:21 am

mrpresident

she went off the deep end! said that she didn't want her daughter to give anything to anyone.... just wanted her to study and not think of boys.

7:21 am

mrpresident

she is 10 and mature

7:22 am

EspritdJean

the mother sounds like a head case

7:22 am

periwinkle

yea mom must have issues

7:22 am

AsGreen

the boy will find out...but if it

7:22 am

AsGreen

oops

7:22 am

mrpresident

the note said... roses are red, violets are blue, you are quite sweet, so I think of you

7:23 am

EspritdJean

big deal, MrP, it is typical kids' stuff valentines

7:23 am

AsGreen

if it's all innocent, who cares? it sweet...

7:23 am

Scrabbler

Seems harmless

7:24 am

EspritdJean

I think you should petition for custody of the girl :-)

7:24 am

mrpresident

exactly! harmless, it is valentine's day!

7:24 am

Scrabbler

Tell the mother she is a stupidhead

7:24 am

AsGreen

of course if the mother specifically said don't do it (ahead of time, which it doesn't sound like she did) then of course that would be wrong. But if you had no idea and were just helping her (the kid) like she asked, then you have no worries! The mom is just having a wake up call

7:24 am

mrpresident

what amazes me, is that she called me and gave me a hard time about my daughter

7:24 am

AsGreen

about your own daughter?

7:25 am

EspritdJean

repeat: mother sounds like a head case

7:25 am

AsGreen

Lol EJ

7:25 am

mrpresident

she said, my daughter is popular with boys, and that she is getting attention.... so therefore, her daughter is going to try and compete for attention to and she doesn't want that

7:25 am

EspritdJean

head case head case head case

7:25 am

EspritdJean

calling Dr. Phil . . . .

7:26 am

mrpresident

my daughter is a very decent darling sweet kid who protects the innocent

7:26 am

mrpresident

I agree jean! I am ready to give up on her

7:26 am

mrpresident

however, I am going to be fostering her child in 2 years

7:26 am

AsGreen

sounds like the mom has other things going on (feeling guilty about not spending time with her, allowing the blame to fall on you while daughter goes thru "normal" feelings and she can't be there)

7:26 am

AsGreen

I should have a talk show, no?

7:27 am

EspritdJean

MrP, from what I have gathered during the months in this site is that your family lives in sunshine, love and laughter, supportive of and in tune with each other

7:27 am

EspritdJean

Yes, greenblat...who was you going to unseat, Oprah or Ellen?

7:27 am

mrpresident

so, now I am stuck, cause she threatened her daughter, she told her if she gives a boy a valentine's card, she can never ever see us again

7:27 am

EspritdJean

sick sick sick sick

7:27 am

mrpresident

I am feeling sick about it! that poor child

7:28 am

EspritdJean

what does it mean you are going to be "fostering" the child in 2 years?

7:28 am

AsGreen

MrP - take the high road - head high too - and let the two of them work it out

7:28 am

mrpresident

esprit! we are so like that! we are all about love, respect, commitment and overall, trust! no bullshit with us

7:29 am

EspritdJean

I can gather that MrP

7:29 am

AsGreen

the girl will continue to want a relationship and you won't get sucked into a "valentine's card fight"

7:29 am

EspritdJean

it comes through loud and clear

7:29 am

mrpresident

when she goes to high school, she will be in my care, cause her mother will be working overseas for 9 months a year

7:29 am

EspritdJean

good grief

7:29 am

EspritdJean

I think you should just adopt her

7:30 am

AsGreen

there is a LOT going on there....wow

7:30 am

EspritdJean

if she is entrusting her daughter to live with you, she should have faith in your good judgment

7:30 am

AsGreen

ok ****must find words****

7:30 am

EspritdJean

otherwise tell her to piss off

7:31 am

mrpresident

she actually went as far to say that she didn't want her daughter to give an annonymous card cause she would become a 'trollop'! for x sake!!! she is 10!! and they all do it in year 5 and 6

7:31 am

EspritdJean

she needs serious therapy

7:32 am

EspritdJean

nothing like giving your kid a balanced perspective

7:32 am

mrpresident

she hates men.... but she is 40, never had a partner living with her and completely independant (on social welfare!)

7:32 am

EspritdJean

wait .....independent and on social welfare...isn't that a contradiction?

7:32 am

G*G

can anyone give me some hints on some of the 7s? cheers

7:32 am

mrpresident

she got pregnant to the village sperm donar and took off to australia with her child and mother

7:33 am

mrpresident

ok, she is 40.... ready for this???

7:33 am

Aloyisius

ch7: Santa comes down this..

7:33 am

EspritdJean

one is a ch G*G

7:33 am

G*G

:-) I've got that one... now stuck!

7:34 am

mrpresident

she works 1200km away for 10 days at a time, then spends 7 days back in sydney.... and in melbourne, she has a completely different life.... all her 'boyfriends' are 21 and under.

7:34 am

AsGreen

oooh, Mr. P. speaking of Australia - we gave our kids solo and tim tams for valentine's day (memories from our fab vacation!)

7:34 am

EspritdJean

this gets sicker and sicker

7:34 am

Bremen

ga

7:34 am

Aloyisius

st7: your SAT scores will put you in one of these percentile categories

7:35 am

Scrabbler

TY for great clues to big words!

7:35 am

mrpresident

solo and timtams!!! what a treat!!

7:35 am

G*G

This conversation feels like a Jerry Springer show.... never realised Babble incited such gossip!

7:35 am

mrpresident

g*g... it isn't gossip

7:35 am

EspritdJean

was just going to say that mrp

7:36 am

AsGreen

lol - we found a site that we could order from - they were SO excited!!

7:36 am

mrpresident

it is cold and hard and I deal with this child everyday! she cries to me and tells me all her pains.... this is not gossip!

7:36 am

mrpresident

do not judge me! I am true and kind and just think of the kids

7:36 am

G*G

sorry guys, only read the last few messages. Obviously more going on than I read. Didn't mean to offend. I work in child protection myself.

7:37 am

AsGreen

this mom is really insecure and 2nd guessing her decisions which is why she's taking it out on you MrP b/c she knows you have better judgement (and can take her in stride - I hope-)!

7:37 am

EspritdJean

I vote we grant absolution to G*G

7:37 am

mrpresident

ok g*g... I am extremely protective of this girl... she is a darling and needs love and protection

7:38 am

periwinkle

she is lucky to have you, mrp

7:38 am

mrpresident

vote seconded

7:38 am

EspritdJean

ok G*G you are off the hook....got any professional advice for our dear mrP?

7:38 am

AsGreen

oooh, my favorite "new" rh word is in here!

7:39 am

G*G

think i need to go back a while in this conversation... hold on a min

7:39 am

mrpresident

she actually went as far to say that cause my daughter is so popular and outgoing, her daughter would make 'mistakes' to try and emulate my daughter!!

7:39 am

AsGreen

how 'bout her own mistakes? (but don't say that!!) :)

7:39 am

EspritdJean

she sure sounds like she is projecting her own crap onto her kid

7:39 am

periwinkle

bbl

7:41 am

mrpresident

I was shocked by her comment.... she knows my daughter well... she knows what a darling she is.

7:42 am

mrpresident

yes esprit, she certainly is. I feel for her daughter, cause that is an unhealthy way to be shown relationships.

7:43 am

G*G

Ok, not sure if i've got the whole picture but sounds to me like this mother hasn't exactly got her daughter very high in her priorities. Sounds like both mother and daugther need a secure and loving relationship. Good for you mr p as it sounds like that's what you're giving this girl.

7:44 am

EspritdJean

it's what she IS giving the girl, but the mother makes it sound like MrP is stearing the kid into a life of prostitution

7:44 am

mrpresident

yes g*g... she thinks that money is everything, and image... she is sweet, but insecure! I love her daughter and respect her wishes, but so wish she didn't push her into hating boys

7:45 am

Scrabbler

Time to get ready for work--bye all. Good luck, mrp. This little girl needs your love and to learn from a caring, secure, stable woman and family.

7:45 am

mrpresident

brb, lickety needs a foot rub! ;)

7:45 am

EspritdJean

third foot?

7:46 am

mrpresident

he he he he!!! you are brilliant!

7:46 am

Scrabbler

oooh, I need 5 words to be halfway, so I can't go yet

7:47 am

Aloyisius

well, me be done, Scrabbler.. so, if you need a clue?

7:47 am

AsGreen

go Scrabbler!! :)

7:48 am

G*G

still stuck on these 7s... I've got a cold, maybe it's blocking my brain as well as my nose!?

7:48 am

Scrabbler

Congrats, Aloy

7:49 am

ckapoo

Hi!

7:49 am

Aloyisius

7:51 am

Hilarious: No-holds-barred carnivores may share the view of Anthony Bourdain, who wrote in his book â€œKitchen Confidentialâ€ that â€œvegetarians, and their Hezbollah-like splinter faction, the vegans ... are the enemy of everything good and decent in the human spirit.â€

9:55 am

NonnieLight

I've helped tie quilts but have never made a "top".

9:55 am

debjed

not me, nance. but have a bunch of my grandmothers beautiful quilts. she made so many!

9:57 am

nancethefan

i'm have difficullty finding the beeswax container used 4 pulling your quilting thread thru b4 actually quilting on the material

9:59 am

Uniquity

I would love to quilt...crafty stuff fascinates me and I find it very soothing. unfortunately, I have never had an opportunity to do so yet. Maybe in a few years...

10:00 am

nancethefan

i went 4 13 yrs w/o taking quiting up again - in 94 i had 2 back surgeries - after the 2nd i'm a chronic pain patient & am just getting 2 the point of where i feel the desire 2 start back doing them - i'm making a wall hanging 1st 2 get back in the swing of things - i taught myself how 2 do it - also needlepoint & cross stitch - i haven't gotten the desire 2 do either of those yet

10:01 am

Uniquity

I love cross-stitch! Unfortunately I often get distracted just before finishing.

10:02 am

nancethefan

i find quilting quite challenging since u have 2 figure out the finished size plus all the squares & pieces 4 a perfect fit - but plz don't let the word perfect scare u - the never r perfect

10:02 am

nancethefan

uni - i also do cause i find a pattern i prefer than the 1 i am doing

10:02 am

sadie52

I love cross stitch also

10:03 am

Uniquity

Exactly! There are so many interesting patterns

10:03 am

nancethefan

i have approx 10 cross stitch projects ready 2 b framed - i prefer 2 have them professionally framed since i spend so much time on them

10:03 am

sadie52

yea there are

10:05 am

Uniquity

I don't necessarily care to have them on my walls or anything, but I really enjoy making them. It is a nice little activity, I think

10:05 am

nancethefan

my wall hangng is done in variations of dark 2 light purples w/a white & light purple backing - i'm really going 2 try 2 push myself 2 continually increasing the difficulty of the next quilt i start.

10:06 am

nancethefan

well uni - i have a wall that screams "put a quilt hanging here" lol

10:06 am

Uniquity

I don't have much wall space in my little apartment...someday when I am rich and have a house, I will get into it all

10:06 am

nancethefan

1 thing i tried 1st was knitting but i didn't do well w/that - lol

10:08 am

nancethefan

now crochet - u can find some patterns that don't look like they r homemade & i am going 2 make 2 sofa & loveseat throws after the quilt - then i shoul b ready 2 begin quilting again

10:08 am

NonnieLight

I don't do well at any of it...I've tried to knit, crochet, cross-stitch, etc...All my finished projects (even simple things) are oddly shaped.

10:08 am

nancethefan

u must still b waiting 4 "your ship 2 come in" - mine didn't so i had 2 move on - LOL

10:09 am

nancethefan

in the hands part, yes peri, but the flavours/textures are quite different.

11:22 am

Vicuna

More middle eastern than that, peri.

11:22 am

Did you live there once, Vicuna?

11:23 am

will have to see if there is a Morrocan restaurant in my city

11:23 am

redturtlehead

Peri, I've had the misfortune to be served a lot of goat. Seain its yukky!

11:24 am

Vicuna

I agree, lamb is not my favorite, but my only complaint about the food there was that there were so many courses I couldn't possibly eat enough!

11:24 am

redturtlehead

clue for the ec 6???

11:24 am

dcseain

yes, important to pace yourself at Marrakesh, at least 6 courses every meal.

11:25 am

11:31 am

dcseain

food i'm reasonably daring with, within the limits of my admittedl self-imposed ovo-lacto vegetarianism, though i'm flexiblish with that sometimes to be polite.

11:31 am

Krista

I think Adams-Morgan has several Ethiopian restuarants...mmm...food...

11:31 am

MLFAN17

pbr i think its your rear end spelled differently

11:31 am

dcseain

i often regret being polite, but alas, social duty outranks comfort if it won't kill me

11:31 am

Krista

Hi pbr!

11:31 am

redturtlehead

I worked witha bunch of them when I was overseas

11:31 am

Vicuna

11:32 am

Krista

My vegan friend who is in from Seattle is now back to ovo-lacto, much to my surprise

11:32 am

MLFAN17

11:33 am

redturtlehead

Almost time for lunch.

11:34 am

redturtlehead

11:34 am

dcseain

i don't get that red, though it's common in some regions/families

11:34 am

MLFAN17

red i am not much of a drink either

11:35 am

dcseain

my family has teetotalers and people that drink, no one is expected to if they don't want to.

11:35 am

Vicuna

Overseas I've had that, though I'm happy to say in the US now they just assume I'm being designated driver! We've come a long way! But if I just explain to people, I've always had them, at worst shrug.

11:35 am

MLFAN17

dc i think thats great

11:35 am

dcseain

the farmer side of family drinks less than the urban one, but does it more thoroughly when they do do it.

11:35 am

Vicuna

I mean, I'll drink juice or water or whatever for toasts and such!

11:35 am

redturtlehead

It's strange, but I think some people think I am passing judgement on their drinking, when I could care less...I actually was a drinker overseas,a nice coping mechanism.

11:36 am

MLFAN17

my mom told me that if i didnt have alcohol at my wedding that no one would come

11:36 am

Vicuna

We had no alcohol at our wedding, and people came! lol

11:36 am

redturtlehead

If I ever get married,there will be champange...

11:36 am

dcseain

i respectfully dis agree with your mother.

11:36 am

redturtlehead

11:36 am

redturtlehead

11:37 am

dcseain

11:37 am

Krista

It can be a polarizing thing, depending on the company.

11:37 am

MLFAN17

11:37 am

redturtlehead

Yes, true...

11:37 am

MLFAN17

11:38 am

dcseain

11:38 am

Buttonman

Morning all, I am having trouble finding the na 4/4..any clues please!

11:38 am

Vicuna

Yes, ours was not an evening wedding, either, which makes no alcohol seem less "weird" to those who expect it.

11:38 am

dcseain

my European friends think we're all wusses about alcohol here.

11:38 am

redturtlehead

LOL Krista

11:39 am

nDanLia

11:39 am

dcseain

11:39 am

redturtlehead

When I lived with a bunch of French and Belgians, I did tend to drink,but it wasvery very hot, and I was very very stressed.

11:39 am

MLFAN17

what is that a clue for nd?

11:40 am

nDanLia

ay + sound of satisfaction

11:40 am

Vicuna

But in truth, the harder a time people give you, the more they are proving that you are not a wuss if you stick to your principles.

11:40 am

dcseain

hot toddies are lovely when one has a cold

11:40 am

nDanLia

11:40 am

dcseain

i concur, vicuna

11:40 am

Krista

He wanted to drink every night when he first moved here, because that's what he did at the local pub ("pub culture"). I pointed out that we don't live in a pub, and, while I drink, I don't do it EVERYDAY. We agreed he could have his beer once a week. I also don't think your liver knows what nationality you are.

11:40 am

Buttonman

Dcseain, no to your question

11:41 am

redturtlehead

Yes I do not have a hard and fast no alcohol rule, but for right now, I am running a lot and trying to lose 10 pounds before my Florida Adventure, so No etoh for me...

11:41 am

Hi Red, you sound down - so unike you! reading back sounds like you need take a really tough line with the landlord & agency and not let them 'harass' you anymore - surely there is something in your lease about enjoying peace & quiet. Do you have Tenants Associations in the US?

OMG ! Vicuna, just looked at your upcoming show sites. I live in MA. I will try to make one of the shows. Beloved and I both enjoy the local art galleries, and certainly Boston when we go in.

2:14 pm

Yes thats it. i think its more I want desperately to leave. But there is no where to go...

2:15 pm

Vicuna

That would be so cool to see you there, ch! The open studios is a lot of fun - I do recommend it. (Especially if the weather is decent and you can walk around.)

2:15 pm

HollyF

OK folks I live in MA too~

2:15 pm

ch1212

I just opened the NOS website and am exploring that. It looks wonderful! Welcome, Holly!

2:16 pm

Krista

Just checked out your damn prints..and remembered the site from bookmarking it AGES ago..love your work. Must order some note cards. Are they lino block prints?

2:16 pm

Vicuna

Well, maybe when we get to April I should start trying to recruit all the MA Babblers to have a reunion at Needham Open Studios! lol

2:17 pm

Krista

I'm sorry, Red..that must be so frustrating!!!

2:17 pm

Vicuna

Some are rubber blocks, which is sort of a modern equivalent of lino, and some are wood block.

2:17 pm

HollyF

The world is getting smaller, I've been to Needham Open studios

2:17 pm

Krista

I started making a linoleum block once, but never finished it. Think I cut myself about 10 times.

2:18 pm

Vicuna

Have you really, Holly? In the past 4 years? Maybe we've met and didn't realize it!

2:18 pm

Krista

It was too hard, I think.

2:18 pm

Vicuna

The rubber is much easier and safer to cut than lino, so I like it a lot more. Lino gets much too hard when it gets old and/or cold.

2:18 pm

Vicuna

Too hard and the tools skid off the top, too, which makes it even more dangerous.

2:19 pm

ch1212

Holly, you must live nearer to Boston than I do. Ditto Vicuna. Hurshy lives near/in Boston. And there are several other Babblers in MA. I work in Northampton, on the western side of the state.

2:19 pm

Krista

that's exactly what was happening...bet it was old (the local store prob had it for years)

2:19 pm

HollyF

I have meetings every month at Babson on the Needham line and will stop in before or after

2:20 pm

Krista

funny that you are all on here at the same time! Cool!

2:20 pm

Vicuna

No, Hurshy's in CT, but there are a ton of us around here. pam, for example, works with a woman who has also done NOS for years.

2:20 pm

Krista

I thought she was in Rhode Island!

2:21 pm

Vicuna

HURSHY! HURSHY! Are you out there?

2:21 pm

Krista

(Hurshy)

2:21 pm

ch1212

I stand corrected. For some reason I was remembering her trying to navigate Boston's roadways. Of course, out here in New England, the mileage is so small that people routinely work and live in different states. Hey, Hurshy!

2:22 pm

Vicuna

She was thinking of moving to the Boston area, maybe about a year ago, but in the end she didn't.

2:22 pm

Krista

she and her husband are living in two diff places right now, that could be some of the confusion

2:22 pm

ch1212

BBL -- my beloved just called and is coming home. Then we're off to run errands. Happy hunting all, and happy Valentine's Day!

Is there any products that is good for pimples and that kinda thing. Im 30 freaking years old and im sick of them

6:16 pm

redturtlehead

A friend of mine swears by proactive, but they are caused truely by hormones.

6:16 pm

redturtlehead

Soits hard tojustget rid of them.

6:16 pm

MLFAN17

i need the first he 4 and 5 please

6:16 pm

hurshy

no, it's not hard

6:16 pm

www.b5clearskin.com

6:17 pm

MLFAN17

herin i am in my 30s and get them too

6:17 pm

redturtlehead

I found when my diet is good all is well in the pimple zone...

6:17 pm

herinfernallady

Ok Good to know. Was thinking of Proactive but if its a hormonal thing then mmm Thanks Hurshy. I am not amused. Never like it as a teen

6:17 pm

MLFAN17

i think their is some by estee lauder or prescriptives

6:17 pm

hurshy

apparently B5 is used to make sex hormones and also it can help clear pimples. if your body has a choice, naturally it chooses sex hormones. however, if it gets plenty of B5, then it does both.

6:18 pm

herinfernallady

Thanks Hurshy

6:18 pm

redturtlehead

i actually asked my OB this year and she said it really is caused by hormones....

6:18 pm

MLFAN17

anybody?

6:18 pm

redturtlehead

interesting...

6:18 pm

hurshy

i use it, and it totally works. it's cheaper than proactive or probably any other topical solution and works a thousand percent better.

6:19 pm

jmb

Fireworks... finally...

6:19 pm

redturtlehead

yay jmb.

6:19 pm

herinfernallady

Brillant that helps me thanks Hurshy. I looked at it and it seems Calcium is in it

6:19 pm

MLFAN17

joanne?

6:20 pm

hurshy

A single flower he sent me, since we met.
All tenderly his messenger he chose;
Deep-hearted, pure, with scented dew still wet--
One perfect rose.

I knew the language of the floweret;
"My fragile leaves," it said, "his heart enclose."
Love long has taken for his amulet
One perfect rose.

Why is it no one ever sent me yet
One perfect limousine, do you suppose?
Ah no, it's always just my luck to get
One perfect rose.

8:27 pm

jillibus

Kaz, Expert puts everything on one page, plus it has Lickety Add, where if you type in one word it goes to your list, and more than one word goes to chat. Saves a lot of sin bin time

8:27 pm

LadyNatts

Hi briggsy... Welcome! you have 3 hours to find all the 132 words (found by connecting letters in the grid)

is it always 132 words?

8:28 pm

jilli - to be honest, I haven't explored Babble expert much. I opened it up one day when we'd been having major troll invasions on chat, simply to get back with other proper Babblers. Also turned chat off on here. LOL

briggsy - for the first two weeks you play you get stats (statistics) that tell you all that. After that, you need to make a one-time (small) payment to be a lifelong 'pro' player and always get stats.

lil, one is where you might stick trinkets and such in a ni***, the other could be a slanderous title, as in you are such a ni***, rhymes with single copper coin (US)

8:45 pm

Jacula

lil*monkey - the first ni5 is a word for an exclusive market for a product. The 2nd is a bit of a drippy twit.

8:45 pm

danf63

ni5 the 1st is a small, specialized part of your audience

8:45 pm

lbdawger

Dan, hmmm sounds like my kind of guy! lol

8:46 pm

the 2nd used to be a term for silly old ladies who didn't babble

THANK U jacula, lbdawg, and dan... I'm such a ni5 !!!

8:46 pm

danf63

Melvin asks if he can bring a snack if they say yes to the nap

lil*monkey

well, i am a lady, am old & silly, but I DO babble, so i must not be a ni5

8:58 pm

danf63

(the childrens game involves "It" and touching other players)

8:59 pm

Jacula

Oh thanks (not!), Aussie. I'll be singing that all blooming night now! Reminds me of when my kids were at playgroup (and I was the one who always got chosen to clean the toilets). Mums had to 'do duties' there. Jealous crowd they were, hated that fact that I was the one the kids always wanted to tell or read stories.

8:59 pm

Jacula

LOL. Glad those days are over!

8:59 pm

Kazozz

oh my ty so much dan...u got my fireworks!

sc5/12 is the sc=smell with a vowel end instead

9:09 pm

Jacula

Ah! You'd have to ask my Mum about that. She's a fan of 'Lost'. I wonder if sayid is that chap she says our new young Asian GP (who she says is 'the most handsome man she's ever seen' - Is that any way for a widow to talk??) reminds her of?

9:09 pm

renfield

the grid flips at midnight central stand time and you get a new grid lillithe

Jacula

I used to win colouring competitions. LOL!

9:42 pm

Jacula

weegee - in which case, you should have made your own pictures. I guess you eventually did?

9:43 pm

weegee

I mostly just paint walls now jac, and trim... love doing both. I hate ceilings though

Hmm, weegee - primrose and green hall, royal blue, beige and pinkish sitting room, green, beige, rust & burnt orange kitchen, avocado green, pale blue, and orange shaded bathroom, royal blue and silver bedroom, maroon, pale blue and orange bedroom, yellow, orange, light green (and farm animal pattern colours) bedroom, purple and mauve bathroom. That's here. Need I go on?

9:48 pm

weegee

that's what fish are for sk!!

9:48 pm

skheiny

break it out and start slapping!

9:49 pm

Jacula

It's a buyers' 'nightmare' according to all those 'how to sell your house' TV programmes. I'd need to beige it all into submission before anyone dared view it.

9:49 pm

weegee

ooooh jac, I'd be right at home! I haven't gone to 2-tone yet but former owners left dining room a tawny beige below white chair rail and a lovely cocoa between chair rail and crown molding

9:50 pm

9:50 pm

9:52 pm

skheiny

ag 4/7 - ag + triumphant exclamation

9:52 pm

Jacula

If I ever do want to sell, I really don't want to beige it. It's my HOME and that's how it is. Anyway, are people so lacking in imagination these days that they want to move into a mainly white or beige house and not stamp their own mark on it? Surely the mark of a house being your own home is when you finally decorate the last room to your own taste?

9:52 pm

9:58 pm

weegee

hi autumn. sounds yummy! one of our volunteer tutors brough some to us today and I couldn't resist eating one

9:58 pm

weegee

you can do it ping! just ask...

9:58 pm

Jacula

I have just poured myself a glass of Rioja, a red wine full of chocolate, cherry and cheese taste. The ta6/21 acid content of this is so high that I know I will regret it later.:(

9:58 pm

autumn moon

see y'all in a while.

9:59 pm

Ping

ty weegee

9:59 pm

Jacula

Have fun, autumn!

9:59 pm

nice jac. would you like a bit of brie with that?

9:59 pm

Jacula

ping - ask and ye shall receive. (Unless you want money, or stuff posting to the USA.)

10:00 pm

Ping

LOL Jac - and thanks!

10:01 pm

Jacula

Hmm, I would, weegee. I could make my bacon, brie and green grape toasted sandwich then. It's wonderful! Somerset Brie (from UK) is much more tasty than French Brie for that.

10:02 pm

Jacula

y/w, ping. *Thinks... another drinker!* LOL

10:03 pm

weegee

wow! I'm creative with food combos but that's one I haven't tried but will! Have you ever mixed a bit of curry paste with mayo when making chicken salad, then add cashews or toasted pecans

10:03 pm

Ping

just pass the bottle please

10:03 pm

Jacula

Can't say I have tried that combo, weegee.

10:03 pm

weegee

(whispers so Jac won't be grossed out) I'm sipping sherry

10:03 pm

Jacula

LOL, ping. *Passes bottle.*

10:09 pm

Jacula

2 slices of white bread, 2 rashers of smoked bacon, about 6 green grapes (halved, so they don't roll off), 3 thin slices of Somerset Brie with the rind left on, butter or margarine type spread for the toast. First, grill your bacon. Then grill one side of both your slices of bread. Butter the ungrilled sides of your bread and put 3 grapes halves on one half of bread, topped by your pre-grilled bacon, topped by your brie and the other 3 grape halves. Put under grill until the cheese melts.Slap untoasted side of bread on top, press down firmly and toast topside. Then eat.

10:10 pm

Jacula

*Throws up at sherry drinking idea.*

10:11 pm

Jacula

Oh, chop in half first in a nice triangle before eating. LOL

10:11 pm

weegee

I'm seriously tempted to get dressed and dash to the grocery for bacon and grapes!! STOP! i'm drooling!

10:12 pm

Jacula

It's the most wonderful toasted sandwich EVER, weegee.

10:13 pm

Ping

hmmmm, sounds good

10:13 pm

Jacula

Me and my Mum invented that one!

10:17 pm

Jacula

Please, please, please DO NOT attempt to do that sandwich in an electric sandwich maker that glues the edges down. It's at its best done under a gas grill.

Jacula

LOL, weegee!

10:18 pm

72 Temple Owl

Jacula

10:19 pm

Jacula

Hi ag5/14, jilli.

10:19 pm

72 Temple Owl

10:21 pm

jillibus

Here's a recipe challenge -- yummy meals all day for someone who is allergic to anything from a cow or any animal which walks on the earth (no goat cheese either, for instance), and to wheat and eggplant. Chicken and fish are okay -- don't know about shellfish. Spelt flour is okay.

10:21 pm

72 Temple Owl

all i can say is, don't buy safeway brand ice cream.

10:22 pm

jillibus

Jac, what makes you think I eat junk food? I NEVER do!

10:22 pm

72 Temple Owl

10:22 pm

Jacula

Hmm, I do know one or two people like that, jilli.

10:22 pm

10:23 pm

autumn moon

10:23 pm

weegee

jilli, I'm allergic to soy but it seems to be a wonderful alternative to dairy for many folks

10:23 pm

Jacula

Sorry, jilli. I meant TO re the crummy food.

10:23 pm

jillibus

If I eat out, jac, it's at

You lot should try having a former anorectic for a daughter who want to eat everything now, but feels guilty about that and about being to happy and sorted and so is examinining her poo daily to see what possible food allergies she might have that could let her restrict her diet once again.

10:29 pm

weegee

OMG, brightness problem solved!! I just got a warning message "battery low... switch to outlet power now or risk losing your work".. what the? I looked around the corner and saw that kitties had stepped on power strip and turned it off!! Yeah! I hadn't thought to check that, the simplest option!!

However, my partner's 12 years younger than me and so he's not eligible to go with me on SAGA holidays, nor is he qualified for 16/30 holidays.

Jacula

Well, jilli, I hope she was not offended even though she got the clue because nothing offends me more than those 'don't say anthing rude because there might be children on this site' people who get the adult clue anyway.' And I will defend myself now against anyone who brings up 2 year's past battle with Tuva who didn't treat a child on this site correctly.
