4:09 am

MonkeyGames

Oh, birthday was OK, didn't do much but Danny got me flowers.

4:09 am

4:09 am

MonkeyGames

Thanks!!

4:10 am

MonkeyGames

It hasn't really sunk in.

4:10 am

sprite

I can imagine, lol. Has been really tough with all the rest going on. But it will sink in eventually and you will feel great :D

4:11 am

Fiber Art

What a great profile pic, MonkeyGames--she's quite the artist

4:11 am

MonkeyGames

Yeah. I figure Monday when I am here doing something like-- gasp! -- reading a book instead of deling with the chaos that was my residency place, it'll start to make sense.

4:12 am

MonkeyGames

Thanks Fiber! He, though. Just fine features with extravagant hair.

4:12 am

Fiber Art

My youngest son, Eric, was often called "Erica."

4:12 am

sprite

indeed MonkeyG :) Or when you check the next deadline and realise there is none!

4:13 am

MonkeyGames

That is also true. I was the only person at the entire school getting a degree on the half year this time... they gave me a rather nice pen.

4:13 am

Fiber Art

I think I'll go back to bed. Happy Babbling, all......

4:14 am

4:18 am

Andree

troll gone?

4:22 am

sprite

hi Andree, looks that way

4:26 am

sprite

it's always a bit disappointing when a 'new' person proves to be a troll, isn't it. But ignoring them until they have proven themselves is not the way either.,

4:27 am

Andree

i just find it best to make myself busy in the grid at those times

4:29 am

sprite

I think I'll just go on taking the risk. Better to welcome a troll than to ignore a nice new player, or at least that is how I feel.

4:31 am

Andree

i agree sprite but as soon as the display troll behaviour i just ignore, which i wish everyone would do

4:31 am

sprite

yeah it is usually the only thing that works

4:33 am

sprite

I should have known when it said it was a kid, probably.

4:34 am

But the men's doubles were great following

6:16 am

herinfernallady

Seriously I understand the extreme heat ruling that court was between 50 to 60C but to close mid game is total b.s. Considering they knew that it was going to be over 40 and lets not even start about the poor wheelchair players stuck on the outdoor courts

6:16 am

6:17 am

mrpresident

infern, that is what I was concerned about... they knew it was going to be deadly hot! but to close up mid-game was crap

6:17 am

my therapist would say to me ... 'whenever you call yourself stupid in your head.... I want you to 'woof''
So for about 2 weeks, I went around the house barking at myself!
The family thought I was completely insane!!
I would 'woof, woof, woof' whenever I had a negative thought of myself... it worked beautifully!

6:33 am

Katydid0615

if you've never had one, you should try to find one. the pastry part itself is very sweet and flaky (sort of like a sweet pie crust) and then it is filled with sweetened fruit filling.

6:33 am

Katydid0615

yum yum a sugar overload! I'll put some in the pb for you.

6:34 am

herinfernallady

Sprite: Apple omzet

6:34 am

sprite

don't think we have much like that in the netherlands. Sounds very very sweet but also crunchy... yummy

6:34 am

herinfernallady

Sprite: A turnover is a kind of cake made by placing a filling on a piece of dough, folding the dough over, and sealing it. Turnovers can be sweet or savory and are often made as a sort of portable meal or dessert, similar to a sandwich.

6:34 am

sprite

thanks lady, that was the part I understood. Didn't know about the pastry!

6:35 am

sprite

7:08 am

EspritdJean

amen sistah

7:09 am

redturtlehead

I am not a reality show fan. I do like Top Chef and Project RUnway, where they actually compete for a goal, rather than parade about bad behavior.

7:09 am

herinfernallady

I liked Real World long before MTV

7:31 am

LadyNatts

hard to keep cats indoors when you have dogs that need to go outdoors.

7:32 am

LadyNatts

although 2 of my cats don't usually sneak out.

7:33 am

redturtlehead

grumpy cats need special consideration.

7:33 am

herinfernallady

My Friend has a dog and inside cats.Her dog uses the cat box.

LadyNatts

7:34 am

herinfernallady

Yes Natts. My friends idiot pair of cats pulled out the ducted heating vent covers then climbed into the ducts. Nearly killed them stupid idiots

7:34 am

herinfernallady

Dog is a small dog.

7:34 am

7:44 am

herinfernallady

Natts I complain if it gets to 10c and I can't get warm

7:44 am

Anniebrook

I dont like hot weather, not one bit unless I am on the beach. I would rather it be cold.

7:44 am

LadyNatts

7:45 am

Anniebrook

9:54 am

rururocks

mrpresident

"You know, it's when you mean to say one thing, but you say something else that reveals what you are really thinking about. Like the other day I was at the airport and this really beautiful lady with huge boobs was helping me. Instead of asking her for 'two tickets to Pittsburgh', I asked her for 'to Pickets to Tittsburgh."

10:50 am

Book Doctor Gwen

deep breathing helps too

10:50 am

LadyNatts

no, seriously, even our infamous Gravol (which no-one in the states seems to know about) makes me weird.

10:51 am

Krista

bye owl, have a good weekend..Guten Morgen, Inge.

10:51 am

periwinkle

Graveol?

10:51 am

inge

OK, off to the dictionary then.

joshuavorbis

my friend is either crazy or catatonic when trying to find the right sleeping pill

10:51 am

periwinkle

Gravol?

10:51 am

joshuavorbis

there's absolutely no middle ground

10:51 am

flosey

dimenhydrinate peri

10:51 am

merlypoop

all quiet here. have you much to do?

10:51 am

LadyNatts

it's a drug for diarrhea, but it puts you to sleep.

10:51 am

Krista

i am the same with meds, Lady Natts..Gravol is an antihistamine, isn't it?

10:52 am

Book Doctor Gwen

just like allergy pills, huh

10:52 am

Krista

oh yes..like our Benadryl..canNOT take the stuff

10:52 am

periwinkle

did I miss a clue for the sc8

10:52 am

flosey

gravol is used for motion sickness

10:52 am

merlypoop

not too much just trying to get ahead of things so i dont have much to do next week!

10:52 am

periwinkle

antihistamine pills do not make me sleep

10:53 am

Krista

my kids are like that, peri..the paradoxical effect or whatever it's called..does the opposite

10:53 am

LadyNatts

the stuff that is supposed to make you sleep keeps me awake and twitching

10:53 am

Book Doctor Gwen

i just spent a fairly crappy week without allergy pills -- every time "my braind" remodels itself I have to find another brand -- just found some yesterday so i'm happy again 8-)

10:55 am

mrpresident

I have the worst reaction to it!
I 'go to sleep', but don't go to sleep at all! 4-5 hours of extracurricular activities that I have no memory of

10:55 am

flosey

Natts, ask your doctor about Zopicione - it is a very gentle sleep inducer and no foggy brain in the morning

10:56 am

Book Doctor Gwen

mrp, sounds like a lucrative lawsuit there, LOL

10:56 am

joshuavorbis

10:57 am

Book Doctor Gwen

fu6 was hitler's "title"

10:57 am

merlypoop

10:59 am

mrpresident

10:59 am

Book Doctor Gwen

peri, it's actually not spelled that way -- should have two little dots over the U <g>

10:59 am

Pinikula

peri, you killed me again in sramble...you only need like 5 points to win! :)

10:59 am

inge

fireworks! and the third letter in sc 8 is an i, for those of you who need to know.

10:59 am

10:59 am

periwinkle

So sorry Pini

10:59 am

your subconscious mind thinks he needs a lotta makeup, lol

11:07 am

Pinikula

hi mrp...who did you draw on?

11:07 am

mrpresident

WOW, that is toooo funny..that's the kind of thing you could never live down

11:12 am

MetFan

Hi Krista

11:12 am

phandmd

hey! does anyone have any good potty training advice, my new 2 year old dog is not being a good boy. Also, I would love to have an idea of how long it might take to do it.

11:12 am

Pinikula

oh, sorry, joey...didn't see your icon pass by...my bad...

11:12 am

magazinemom

it's true Krista...it's become a running joke

11:12 am

Book Doctor Gwen

sounds like a scene from a bad movie lol

11:13 am

magazinemom

my phantom today is whisker

11:13 am

MetFan

phandmd - when I trained my Buffy, when I found something, I rubbed her nose in it, then I bit her ear - that's the way her mother would have reprimanded her, and she stopped within a few days.

11:13 am

joey

pini, no big deal. i mostly lurk anyway, just had to comment on the stories being told. i am smiling and that is always a good thing

11:13 am

Krista

ferrier is mine today

11:14 am

kim m

had to syep away...did anyone clue the sc 8 or hi 8?

11:14 am

phandmd

the mother dog would rub the dog's nose in the pee?

11:14 am

Judi

Phan - take puppy out ever hour on the hour to the same spot to pee/poo. Praise when he produces. He should have it down after 5 or 6 hours.

11:14 am

kim m

'step' that is

11:14 am

MetFan

No, she would nip her ear

11:15 am

Pinikula

oh, definitely, joey...although I think I missed most of the conversation...snippets have made me chuckle a bit myself...

11:16 am

dan2bit

found the russian royals - passed the halfway mark

11:16 am

Krista

the chog always cheers me up...Yay for Dan

11:17 am

Krista

i think getting at least 1/2 will have to me my goal today

11:17 am

phandmd

Judi, that is sorta what I have done, but not the every hour part. 2 days ago we had the 1st signs of problems and I took him to a spot he peed I praised him to the 9's and later he was good again. I took him out this am and he was good, but at 11:30 he cocked his leg and peed.

11:18 am

phandmd

so, I guess I have to up the amount of times I take him out, but how long does that last?

11:18 am

phandmd

how do I stretch out the times inbetween?

11:18 am

phandmd

and will I ever be able to trust him alone in the house?

11:19 am

Madi95

good morning/afternoon/ evening!

11:19 am

Judi

Must be consistent, phan. One day should do it. He may be marking marking because there are other animals in the house. Is that true?

11:19 am

phandmd

well, there are cats in the house and there used to be a dog, but that dog is no longer?

11:20 am

Pinikula

hi madi

11:21 am

Judi

Ah. Scent of the old dog is still around probably. Lots of "nos" and "bads" when he pees inside. Praise and cookies for peeing outside. No food or water at night before the humans go to sleep.

11:21 am

Krista

hi there, madi..look at the size of this grid!

11:21 am

LadyNatts

what's the icon theme today?

11:21 am

flosey

scarves Natts

11:21 am

Pinikula

I'm not sure I would ever leave my pup alone with free range of the house... he's a sniffer and would probably destroy stuff more than pee all over...

11:22 am

Madi95

i know! i don't think i'll finish today

11:22 am

LadyNatts

thank you, flosey

11:22 am

pugmama763

loved this grid till the last 100...nows it's sucking my will to live!

11:22 am

the arch-enemy of the Oklahoma Sooners is a word today...cool

11:22 am

nope, i won't either

11:23 am

Madi95

house-breaking problems, phan?

11:23 am

magazinemom

LOL pug

11:23 am

flosey

me too pugs, went like a breeze at first

11:23 am

phandmd

he doesn't get water for a good while before bed time and I take him out areound 10 pm for last pee

11:23 am

LadyNatts

pinik, I don't leave my less-than-two-year-old monster with free range either

11:23 am

MetFan

So, Ms Pug - noticed you haven't been on the grid this week - did you get my e-mail?

11:23 am

phandmd

yes, Madi, I got a dog because I didn't want to have to potty train

11:23 am

Madi95

so, any football fans in the chog? superbowl time

11:24 am

LadyNatts

lol little did you know, phand!

11:24 am

pugmama763

I am a HUGE advocate for doggie doors with a fenced enclosure

11:24 am

LadyNatts

that'll be in the chog tomorrow, madi

11:24 am

Judi

Some dogs take longer than others to potty train. He may have established old habits in his former home. Since he's new to your home, he's still testing you to see what he can get away with.

11:24 am

pugmama763

yes dear got the email & mostly been lurking still have the headache crap

11:24 am

LadyNatts

big dogs need to pee less frequently, I think

11:25 am

Pinikula

Koda turned 1 in October and, because it's winter, is kenneled indoors when I'm at work - and he won't pee where he sleeps - so he goes out immediately after I get home...

11:25 am

MetFan

I thought that would subside with the new meds

11:25 am

LadyNatts

same here, pinik

11:25 am

pugmama763

well it toned down but they said 2-4 weeks to reach full effect so we'll see

11:26 am

pugmama763

if not I guess the Doc will try something else

11:26 am

Pinikula

...I'm sure he'll think he's died and gone to heaven when spring/summer comes because the outdoor kennel is huge in comparison (but not as large as the yard when someone is home)...

11:26 am

mrpresident

ok darlinghearts!
Time for me to attempt sleep... 4.30am is a bit late in the evening!
Nighters all! (((hugs)))

There's nothing more hideous when you're feeling otherwise OK than a dull headache rumbling just below the surface....Maybe it's not pressure, but your neck issues?

11:28 am

Pinikula

I found a word!!!!

11:28 am

phandmd

I would have thought he would only need to go out 2x per day , but that doesn't seem to be the case

11:28 am

pugmama763

thats a very real consideration too

11:28 am

Pinikula

sadly, it's taken 30 minutes...

11:28 am

Some dogs can go that long, Phan. Most no. Once you establish the terms of the humans' routines, they will stick to it to a T.

Jess had a wee scare a couple weeks ago but it was just a cyst that burst and caused abnormal bleeding & abdominal pain

11:53 am

magazinemom

I shall return....going to do some shopping with my mom and help daughter with a report that is due Monday

11:54 am

Pinikula

it's an alien environment none of us seem to spend a lot of time in!

11:55 am

pugmama763

it scares me PINi!!!!

11:55 am

magazinemom

which would explain why my kitchen looks the way it does

11:55 am

periwinkle

thanks fuqua for the hi8, another new word for me

11:55 am

LadyNatts

what a good daughter and mom... I would rather die than go shopping with my mom, and I have never helped my daughter with a report or essay.

11:56 am

Pinikula

I don't have to worry about such, things, magz...I have a currently-unemployed daughter living here with nothing better to do while hunting for a job - she's my "housekeeper"... ;)

11:56 am

magazinemom

I should also check on my kids since I just heard my daughter tell my son "If you don't do this I will never rub your feet again."

11:57 am

Pinikula

your dau rubs your son's feet? wow...that's sibling love!

11:57 am

magazinemom

ty Lady...my mom and I get along much better now that I'm 40 and she realizes that I'm an adult

11:57 am

LadyNatts

thanks for the laugh, magaz, I can just imagine

11:57 am

flosey

does anyone have a clue for fi7 please?

11:57 am

Madi95

ewwww i'd never do that for my little brother... a foot rub is a threat to him

11:57 am

MetFan

BTW for anyopne who does not know...Lickety has one word too many on the clue list - ignore the ha6/36-This according to Mr. President- I just checked the chat log for just after the flip because I thought I remembered it from earlier.

11:57 am

Pinikula

Lady...is it bad that my youngest dau loves to go shopping with me? or should I say she loves taking me along as her shopping buddy - I just follow along...

11:58 am

magazinemom

Pini- that's why I'm checking. I don't think she's ever rubbed his feet. She is, however, a VERY protective big sis.

11:58 am

Pinikula

awww, magz...then he'd better not make her mad! ;)

11:58 am

pugmama763

ty for the heads up Met

11:58 am

magazinemom

flosey- it's hotter

11:58 am

LadyNatts

my youngest also takes me on shopping sprees. but I do get impatient.

11:59 am

fuquayvarina

no, met, it's the second hu6 that is the extra, or so we were told earlier

11:59 am

flosey

thanks magmom

11:59 am

LadyNatts

I hate shopping, for one thing. It doesn't really matter who I'm with.

11:59 am

magazinemom

did that get it....I was also thinking "blazing more"

11:59 am

fuquayvarina

second hu 6/36, that is

12:00 pm

flosey

worked very nicely magmom

12:00 pm

Pinikula

OK...I must admit I get a little flustered when she asks me go with and then doesn't let me look at anything...is that considered: "turnabout is fairplay"?

12:00 pm

MetFan

Fuquay, check the chat log - unless Mr P amended herself later, she said it's the ha6/36

12:01 pm

LadyNatts

lol pinik, I suppose it is.

12:01 pm

flosey

yes, when mrp told us last night I put a check beside ha6/36 in Lickety's list

12:01 pm

Pinikula

I don't remember preventing her from looking at stuff when I used to drag her along on shopping trips...hmmmm....

12:02 pm

Madi95

ai8? a simple clue, please? mt brain hurts...

12:02 pm

flosey

2:09 pm

BlueAndAmy

Myfanwy?

2:09 pm

Birdeee

I listened to an interview with the "new guy" and I want to see him in action before deciding

2:09 pm

BlueAndAmy

Oh so she's not in Doctor Who?

2:09 pm

Atalante

no, torchwood

2:10 pm

stidmama

2:10 pm

2:10 pm

Birdeee

Does anyone like Firefly/Serenity as much as me??

2:10 pm

Atalante

2:10 pm

Atalante

2:10 pm

FMitch

I agree Birdeee am not sure about the new gu at al but we will see

2:10 pm

BlueAndAmy

2:10 pm

periwinkle

FM!!!!How lovely to see you here!!!

2:10 pm

FMitch

(((peri)))

2:10 pm

BlueAndAmy

Birdee, my bf (who got me started on Doctor Who) LOVED Firefly

2:11 pm

stidmama

oh! oh right

2:11 pm

Erda

the only Myfanwy I know is M. Piper, who wrote three libretti for Benjamin Britten

2:11 pm

Atalante

LOVE Firefly

2:11 pm

Birdeee

If I had David Tennant I wouldn't let him go either B&A - hang on to him!!! :)

2:11 pm

stidmama

I LOVED the series, not so happy about the movie (firefly)

2:11 pm

BlueAndAmy

I've never seen it, but he's gone on and on about them taking it off the air

2:11 pm

Atalante

have you watched both series of Torchwood, Stid?

2:11 pm

Birdeee

B&A you can see them on HuluDOT com

2:12 pm

BlueAndAmy

Okay, now I don't want to wait for him to get home to watch Torchwood... hahaha .... you're getting me all excited and impatient!! I wanna watch it now!

2:12 pm

stidmama

most of them I think atalante, but we don't actually get them on regular TV here, I think we have been watching them through the on-demand cable thingy. which, if we don't see it while it's offered we miss an episode or two

2:12 pm

FMitch

Torchwood is a different level but I have to say I loved both that and Dr Who last year.

2:13 pm

stidmama

Torchwood, BTW is NOT for young teens and younger... it is decidedly an adult show, while Dr Who is "all ages"

2:13 pm

Birdeee

Got to go my turn to talk to the expectant parents about how knitting helps neurological development - bye all

2:13 pm

periwinkle

stiddy dear, did you see my question? How do you make the scarfs?

2:13 pm

stidmama

later birdee

2:13 pm

Atalante

have you seen the pterodactyl - Ianto is shown with it in an episode towards the end of series 2. and it's also shown flying around in vrious episodes?

2:13 pm

BlueAndAmy

It's the next series I promised I'd let him get me hooked on, but we've got to get through torchwood first... :-D I gotta check out this Myfanwy!

2:13 pm

stidmama

I paint them peri -- although this last year I didn't do much because I was so over-busy.

2:13 pm

BlueAndAmy

bye Birdee!

2:14 pm

stidmama

I have seen the pterodactyl, but really it was so long ago that I don't remember plots.

2:14 pm

Vicuna

Hello!

2:14 pm

periwinkle

what kind of material and what kind of paint. I would love a new scarf for my birthday and know that you are to busy to make one for me. Maybe I can make one for myself.

2:15 pm

Flask1

sorry...I mean 8/55

2:15 pm

FMitch

LOL Hugs babe :)

2:15 pm

stidmama

silk scarves, I use a fabric paint (it's cheaper than dye). You need to stretch the fabric over a frame to keep it suspended in the air (my home-made one died on me last sprint) otherwise it glops and capillary action makes it look peculiar

2:15 pm

Flask1

Hi Brookie!

2:15 pm

Jadeomoan

got to go clean my room before Mom (Jade) comes home. Laters

2:15 pm

stidmama

hey flask!

stidmama

2:17 pm

Flask1

2:17 pm

FMitch

Vi - I will email you rather than clog up the chat

2:17 pm

stidmama

http://www.dharmatrading.com/ is the place I use because it's easier than finding a local place

2:17 pm

Vicuna

Okay!

2:18 pm

stidmama

2:18 pm

Atalante

woooot! where what why?

2:19 pm

stidmama

ur + "we" in alternate form feather

2:19 pm

Vicuna

Poor stidmama. But I can't help but be reminded of what my big brothers used to say to me: "Want me to fix your headac4???" NOOOOOO!

2:19 pm

featherbee

yep, i do flask! that was my first word, came in the chog just as it was clued

2:19 pm

featherbee

ok, got the u, ty

2:20 pm

2:20 pm

BlueAndAmy

erda you ROCK

2:20 pm

stidmama

LOL vi! yes, I can think of a clue, but...

2:20 pm

BlueAndAmy

thank you so much

2:20 pm

featherbee

lol, i just saw it at the same time as i checked your clue! what timing!

2:20 pm

2:21 pm

Atalante

wonderful! takes some pics!

2:21 pm

BlueAndAmy

well you do :-) I never would have ever gotten that

2:21 pm

stidmama

that sounds like a perfect match for you, Vi!

2:21 pm

Erda

gee stid, you are SO welcome

2:21 pm

Flask1

thankyou very much Erda!

2:21 pm

featherbee

ok, 130 left, getting the list

2:21 pm

Erda

yw Flask

2:21 pm

featherbee

ohhh, stid, did you see the pics on facebook of the boys?

2:21 pm

Vicuna

Errr... I forgot to take my camera this morning. But I'll probably go back and check on it midmonth, and perhaps I'll actually remember to bring the dumb camera then.

2:22 pm

stidmama

yes I did feather! they are such handsome children!

2:22 pm

FMitch

Ata I must say that your pics are just getting better and better. The tree pic is so elegant.

2:22 pm

Atalante

I'll pester you till you remember :D

2:22 pm

stidmama

169 here feather

2:22 pm

periwinkle

stid. I bookmarked dharmatrading. So many silk scarves to choose from. What do you use? I know I have something very creative inside me. NOt sure if it is silk scarves. But yours sure are pretty

2:22 pm

featherbee

:D i know!

2:22 pm

Vicuna

Ooh, Ata's got new pics up?

2:23 pm

Atalante

only on my icon :)

2:23 pm

Vicuna

Of course you have something very creative inside you, peri! Everyone does!

2:23 pm

Vicuna

That is a lovely photo.

2:23 pm

FMitch

Don't know if they are new for ou Vi as I am a tad out of touch but they are sure worth a look.

2:23 pm

periwinkle

I keep seeing large painting in bright colors in my head. Wish I had a studio.

2:24 pm

Vicuna

It looks nice small and big, which is not a given.

2:24 pm

stidmama

I used the habotai most often, it produces a lightweight, shiny scarf. But I also liked using the crepe de chine for the heft.

2:24 pm

BlueAndAmy

oh i just looked up the definition of that tough sc8 and i don't like it

2:24 pm

periwinkle

thanks stid

2:24 pm

stidmama

I like to play around with ideas using colored "pencils" (really they're wax crayons for grown-ups).

2:24 pm

featherbee

bleah, i suddenly don't feel like doing the grid. weird.

2:25 pm

Vicuna

You really don't need a whole studio (although it sure is nice to have room.) Go buy a big canvas and some acrylics. When the weather gets nice work outside, or in the kitchen, or...

2:26 pm

periwinkle

I would need an easel too

2:26 pm

stidmama

an acquaintance of mine buys unsized canvas (8-foot wide), staples it to the wall, sizes it himself then paints... LOL

2:26 pm

Vicuna

You could prop it up against something.

2:26 pm

periwinkle

and some extra money :-)

2:27 pm

stidmama

peri, I find that an easel is NOT necessary. acrylics like to be painted flat a lot of the time.

2:27 pm

BlueAndAmy

feather, how come?

2:27 pm

periwinkle

something to think about, thanks Vi and stid. Oh, I could put the canvas on the floor!

2:28 pm

featherbee

no clue blue. grid apathy suddenly! i think it's the beautiful sunshine coming in the door. i wish it was warmer outside.

2:28 pm

periwinkle

any particular place that has good prices on canvases?

2:28 pm

stidmama

here are some things I have done -- greeting card and note card size. NOTE: I am NOT selling anything right now... not set up to do business. http://www.qualitywordworks.com/store.
html

2:28 pm

periwinkle

feather, I did see the pics. Your boys are adorable.

2:28 pm

stidmama

I wouldn't start on canvas necessarily. Look at places like Michael's or other craft stores for "papers" that are textured.

2:28 pm

BlueAndAmy

oh yeah, sunshine will do that to ya, feather!

2:29 pm

featherbee

thanks peri!

2:29 pm

periwinkle

thanks stid. will think about it

General Question to babblers chating now:
Do you think your winter is harsher this year than it has been for the last 10 years. ... or is your summer warmer if you happen to be in the southern hemisphere?

2:32 pm

FMitch, I don't know, it's my first winter in WY, I have nothing to compare it to

2:33 pm

stidmama

our weather is not "normal" for our area FM in the last six years or so. our summers are longer and dryer, the winters are more extreme and unpredictable. More so than the usual "el nino/la nina" cycles

2:33 pm

DR1965

FM- I am in California so our winter has actually been warmer than usual I think

2:34 pm

4:55 pm

Scrabbler

It stinks to be a patient, to recover, to take the time to heal, to be idle, to put one's life on hold....poor, AK. I am glad you are going to recover.

4:55 pm

I did ski today, just 1 loop (2.2 miles) because I was too tired to do another. I have slept only 6 hrs for each of the last 2 nights. We had a party last night, for our Tomfoolery Tennis Club--a group of silly, great ladies.

5:06 pm

Dorens

when can you deal with this sleep deficit scrabs?

5:07 pm

Dorens

actually 6 hours is normal for me, but it probably shouldn't be

5:07 pm

5:07 pm

Dorens

5:12 pm

Scrabbler

Phew, I found the "24" episode from Monday. I couldn't find it on this tape.

5:13 pm

Dorens

but i've never seen a suet feeder go uneaten, and this one has been up at least a week.. i'm telling you these cambridge birds are spoiled

I am shocked, Doren.

5:13 pm

5:14 pm

Dorens

phoebe just loves watching the birds at my house, and i'm sure they'll come here

5:14 pm

I want to apologize about the woman with 8 children earlier

5:42 pm

periwinkle

why, EJ?

5:42 pm

Anniebrook

Why, Jean?

5:42 pm

EspritdJean

I read that she did, in fact, have in vitro.

5:42 pm

EspritdJean

I am very shocked

5:42 pm

periwinkle

that's okay, EJ

5:42 pm

Anniebrook

Jean, all of her children were in vitro

5:42 pm

EspritdJean

that is so far outside of the guidelines, that I couldn't believe a doctor did that

5:42 pm

EspritdJean

yes, I later read that

5:42 pm

periwinkle

I was surprise too, EJ that a doctor allowed her to have the procedure when she already had 6 children all of whom were conceived the same way

5:43 pm

EspritdJean

it's unheard of, really

5:43 pm

EspritdJean

he should lose his license

5:43 pm

periwinkle

yes definitely outside of the guidlines, according to doctors on the news

5:43 pm

Anniebrook

That is irresponsible

5:43 pm

speedfreak

they said it was because all these shows on tv that the families with all these kids are making money is partly responsible for the decision

5:44 pm

rururocks

she is an ill person needing help

5:44 pm

EspritdJean

and also interesting that she could afford it, as California does not have insurance for fertility treatment

5:44 pm

5:53 pm

she sure needs help, the woman who had 8 babies that is

5:53 pm

I believe she has a psychological problem of some sort...leading her to want all these children

5:53 pm

Trif, give Primo a gentle hug from me

5:53 pm

Trifioso

no, he is doing the "rock star" thing - his pinky is up too

5:53 pm

I agree Mag

5:53 pm

I feel blessed every day I get through with the 2 I have....can't imagine having 14

5:53 pm

I will - so many hugs! I have been mother-henning him since we got home....well, when his GF got out of the way long enough for me to get to him

5:54 pm

DR1965

lol Trif

5:54 pm

redturtlehead

I guess it may come from all the glamourization of multiple births...jon and jate plus 8 and the duggars, but at least the duggars have their odd religious beliefs to explain.

5:54 pm

Trifioso

I feel so bad - he was supposed to have a swim meet this morning, and it was his GFs last home meet ever, as she is graduating this year, and we missed it. :(

oooh, the thought makes me itch, red !

7:54 pm

lbdawger

truly, critters will pull clothes off the line. i think it's cuz they get startled by the clothes.

7:54 pm

herinfernallady

Or maybe to nest out of the clothes?

7:55 pm

lbdawger

i also like the drier cuz Hubby will do the laundry!

7:55 pm

redturtlehead

I kept telling our staff that I didnt need everything ironed, they set me straight...

8:04 pm

redturtlehead

We ask everyone about it regularly.

8:05 pm

yes but a man died a block from my house because the emergency techs were so focused on alcohol they didn't treat the head trauma from the mugging he got

8:05 pm

8:05 pm

8:06 pm

the older they get the more embarrasing it is to be Mom at the doctors [blush

8:06 pm

redturtlehead

thats very wrong jmc and I hope they were relieved of duty, as you probably know, against EMTALA law.

8:06 pm

Trifioso

amen to that, jmc!

8:07 pm

9:13 pm

TO, use apple sauce instead of the olive oil

9:13 pm

bbiab

9:13 pm

Trifioso

and puree a little frozen spinach and mix that in. you will NEVER notice it, and it pumps the nutrition value sky high

9:13 pm

abetterjulie

just reduce the sugar or substitute agave nectar to increase the glycemic load.

9:14 pm

72 Temple Owl

julie: a woman after my own heart, next time i will remember the walnuts. one must have one;s monounsaturated fatty acids daily

9:14 pm

9:19 pm

cybernan

very high in saturated fats

9:19 pm

nompie

Yes, it's one of the healthiest, esp. if virgin.

9:19 pm

abetterjulie

but it has to be the unrefined.

9:19 pm

72 Temple Owl

yes i thought it was a nono also.

9:20 pm

phandmd

er 7/8 combo refers to behaviour (crazyish)

9:47 pm

Jacula

Barab - if that was aimed at me, the permission thing, all I can see is you seem cranky today. I saw you having a go at Peri earlier. I was just making conversation with you.

9:54 pm

Jacula

BabRab - it often pi*sses me off when people comment on what hour I am awake etc., but that wasn't the case when I posted to you. It was just a thing from on to another, intersting and asking. However, if I am to be rousted for that, then so be it. I am a mother, and I'm used to it.

9:55 pm

10:10 pm

Jacula

cyber - my daughter earlier yesterday told us she'd been described by others as being competitive. 'Where did I get that from?' she asked. As I thought about it, my new partner and step-daughter told her it was from ME. I agreed, after a moment or twos thought, but then added that her Dad is competitive, too.

10:11 pm

cybernan

I suspect that most of us playing this game are quite competitive!

10:12 pm

Jacula

Babrab abd myslf still have a tentative relationship, one that did not begin well on Babble. All I can hope for is that sense is seen re the question I posed at the start.

10:13 pm

jesdraggon

Jacula

Hi JBV.

i know a lot of you play scrabble and other word games - are there any Taipei fans out there? I was a total addict (until Babble, that is), now I just do a few puzzles a day

10:20 pm

harpjane

10:21 pm

Jacula

10:21 pm

JBV

the st 6/24 is a plural of the 5/14 above it

10:23 pm

harpjane

after someone gives me a clue i will apologize for such a lame joke

10:23 pm

Jacula

Yellow-flowered Japonica is ke6. 7 is the plural.

10:25 pm

harpjane

10:25 pm

abetterjulie

DR1965

harpjane

i work as a case manager for adults with developmental disabilties

11:01 pm

JBV

it's hard enough retiring after so long with a company, but to be let go like that is really awful, he's only 56, too young to retire

11:02 pm

abetterjulie

i would think that would be a safer job, since it is direct care?

11:03 pm

abetterjulie

did they give him any type of severance, jbv?

11:03 pm

JBV

harp is that a state or county job? or private employer?

11:03 pm

it's a private non profit that gets paid by the state

11:03 pm

abetterjulie

anyone have a clue for the first ch6/24, please?

11:04 pm

JBV

i don't know all the details yet, julie, my sister is slightly traumatized - she's taking it harder than he is, He's sort of looking forward to free time, she's thinking, hmm, i'll be getting up to go to work every day while he stays home, etc. they are financially ok, so they'll be all right

11:04 pm

JBV

oh and by the way, she works for the same employer, so you can imagine how her feelings have changed

11:05 pm

JBV

she has 32 years in

11:05 pm
