4:59 am

5:00 am

they say it works miracles in the first few days and nights, to have the litter scent in his new home.

5:02 am

Frances

Atalante

(he already is!)

5:13 am

lynxxx

Too sweet Sprite

5:16 am

sprite

can you see he is the most intelligent? In the way he looks out of his eyes? Not that we are biased or anything.

5:17 am

Atalante

terra and cliff I think! they both look smart dogs

5:19 am

sprite

yeah I think cliff is a good second :)

5:21 am

Atalante

:D

5:21 am

lynxxx

KC Cavalier spaniels are 44th on the intelligence list, Greys are 46th! Ata - what is Hobbit exactly?

5:21 am

Atalante

cocker

5:21 am

Atalante

but a working cocker so more intelligent than most cockers!

5:22 am

lynxxx

hrrmmp - 18th!

5:22 am

Atalante

*grin*

5:22 am

sprite

that is pretty high, isn't it? I mean, there are hundreds of breeds?

5:22 am

Atalante

what's number 1?

5:23 am

lynxxx

Border Collie, followed in second place by a Poodle

5:23 am

Atalante

ah that makes sense

5:23 am

Atalante

where are springers?

5:23 am

sprite

poodle? Seriously?
*is not laughing*

5:24 am

lynxxx

The list goes up to 79, commonly there are a number of breeds on the same ranking/number

5:24 am

lynxxx

Springers are #12

5:24 am

sprite

tsk... well I can tell you terra is among the smartest of dogs ever born, and of course among the loveliest and most pretty.

5:25 am

sprite

terra beats any poodle you name. Harumph!

5:25 am

Atalante

ahhh so hobbit is really somewhere between 18 and 12, cos working cockers are almost more similar to springers than show cockers

5:25 am

lynxxx

Poodle are great dogs, very responsive to training (sure beats a Grey)

5:25 am

Atalante

lol. she *is* very intelligent.

5:26 am

Atalante

poodles are wonderful, especially standard poodles without silly clips

5:26 am

sprite

I think I should have added some smileys. Was just kidding, am simply very much in love with our Terra.

5:26 am

Atalante

loool we know!

5:27 am

Atalante

it always does surprise me when I am reminded how good a dog a nice poodle is though!

5:27 am

sprite

well that is because they are made to look silly and stupid by silly women!

5:28 am

lynxxx

No surprise Afghans are on the bottom of the list...but then again who needs brains when you are so beautiful

5:28 am

Atalante

I know! I know there are real reasons for the poodle clip, but *still*!

5:28 am

Atalante

looool poor afghans!

5:29 am

Atalante

they are truly gorgeous dogs though

5:30 am

sprite

must google afghans, not sure I know how they look. Refresh if you want to see me betraying the icon theme today.

5:30 am

Atalante

they are the dogs with long long silky hair that looks like curtains around them. amazing looking

5:31 am

sprite

ohhhh those dogs! Very ladylike dogs to my eyes.

5:31 am

lynxxx

Magnificent. You know I have just realised our closest friends have had dogs at both ends of the scale. An afghan to start, a dumb blonde, and currently a white standard poodle - Stew's best friend

5:32 am

Atalante

hobbit's best friends are a springer and a blue heeler

5:32 am

sprite

terra's best friends are... KCC spaniels. So far.

5:33 am

Frances

Sprite terra is gorgeous.

You've just reminded me that many years ago I worked with a girl who looked just like an afghan......same hair cut.

5:33 am

sprite

thanks Frances! And... same intelligence level too?

5:34 am

sprite

yummie, love your comfort food, Frances

If you would be a real seeker after truth, it is necessary that at least once in your life you doubt, as far as possible, all things.
Rene Descartes

6:27 am

mrpresident

6:31 am

Andree

moderation and tolerance are my key words

6:34 am

one of the few good things my father taught me: nothing is completely true... not even this.

6:34 am

mrpresident

well, that is what I believe wether or not it is true. I believe in bloody mary but she is not true.

andre...think girls name

6:44 am

KristineNas

He still has a ton of stitches in his mouth , so eating is still difficult , he is doing so well though , the therapist came right in , all 3 of them for a half hour each and he did excellent , he wasn't pleased that he was eating mushed up spaghetti and I was eating a sandwich lol but he didnt care much , we shared a meal in the same room for the first time in over a month!!

6:45 am

phandmd

I can't figue out the lower right A

6:45 am

Scrabbler

My best friend is named Ce7!!

6:45 am

Atalante

what had happened to him, kris?

6:45 am

rolin

and the second one is a person who goes out with someone behind the spouses back

6:45 am

sprite

am so happy for both of you, Kris. *hugs* May he heal up further just as speedily!

6:45 am

KristineNas

he went in for an endoscopy and ended up on a ventilator , the dr shredded his esophagus !

6:45 am

Scrabbler

Why does he have stitches inside his mouth?

6:46 am

Atalante

oh nooooo! I'm sorry, I missed that somehow!

6:46 am

sprite

that doctor is sooooo screwed

6:46 am

KristineNas

they had to pull all of his teeth Scrab , they were afraid one would fall out again and this time go into his lung m and he has had so many pulmonary issues , they just removed them all

6:47 am

Scrabbler

It is a potential risk BUT the fact that it happened should have been noted during the procedure.

6:47 am

Scrabbler

All of his teeth were pulled?!! Oh, my!!!

6:47 am

KristineNas

Yes !

6:47 am

Andree

thx rolin and sprite

6:47 am

Scrabbler

The complications are just endless....so sad!

6:48 am

KristineNas

But that's ok , in 2 months his teeth will be perfect lol

6:48 am

sukee

wow...and I was whining about getting one tooth out

6:48 am

KristineNas

I know sukee , I'm whining too , I need some work done !

6:48 am

sukee

Thank You , but we're over the major hurdles , I can live with him just the way he is !!!!!

6:49 am

Scrabbler

Hi sukee

6:50 am

Andree

wow kris what an experience, will he be getting inplants for the teeth

6:50 am

KristineNas

Yes Andree , as soon as the bone heals

6:50 am

Andree

sorry implants

6:50 am

Scrabbler

Does he remember much of the experience? I hope not.

6:51 am

sukee

I hope the doctor is paying for them...

6:51 am

Christine

Kristine - be sure he gets implants as soon as possible - the dentist pulled all of my lowe teeth (instead of three), admitted he was not authorized to do so, and agreed to implant at his expense, then reneged -- whew. By the time we settled, I had the money but my jawline had shrunk, and wouldn't accept implants.

6:51 am

Andree

i ahve 4 implants holding my plate in and it is very comfortable and no one will be able to tell

6:51 am

KristineNas

Not really Scrab , , he is having major issues with reality and fantasy

6:52 am

KristineNas

wow Christine , that's unreal !!!!!

6:52 am

Andree

its very expensive but surely the clown who operated will pay the bill

6:52 am

Scrabbler

"ICU psychosis" is a real issue..complicated by meds, emotions, etc

6:52 am

phandmd

Wow, Kristine. I am so sorry for you and your husband. I hope the rest of the recovery will be as smoothe as sailing and that his recovery will be complete.

6:52 am

sprite

how awful, Chris :(

6:53 am

KristineNas

Yes He was seriously demented for a while , but it gets better every day !

6:53 am

phandmd

Have a great day all. I made it to almost 1/2 way but really have to get on with studying my science stuff.

6:53 am

sprite

oh I can imagine, Kris and Scrabs. Must be very hard to know what really happened around ops.

6:53 am

KristineNas

heavy sedation may have been hard for me , but it was certsinly a blessing for him !

6:53 am

Scrabbler

Bye phandmd. Good luck with studying.

6:54 am

sukee

That psychosis is probably a self-preservation thing

6:54 am

KristineNas

6:59 am

Christine

The real joy is that dentures don't mold to the gums as uppers will, so I'm always aware of them; and eating while wearing them is still painful, after seven years ... still, there are people out there who have REAL problems, so I just try not to be too obvious that I'm eating with only half my teeth in my mouth . best wishes to your husband for a good recovery.

herinfernallady

We need the car to be legal to drive yes. Busted headlight brackets means no driving

7:28 am

herinfernallady

It also isn't my car

7:28 am

herinfernallady

It was just me learning to turn the car to the right. We were on our land so just the car and a slightly scratched very hardy tree

7:29 am

Christine

good. you can repair a car, but a dead tree is lost forever

7:30 am

herinfernallady

The tree is fine. THat thing is bomb proof

7:30 am

herinfernallady

The tree is riddled with wood wasps. The neighbours keep talking about fixing it

7:30 am

Christine

7:31 am

enjoy Chris

7:31 am

*bliss* I have a new chair for my study. I can sit in comfort now!

7:39 am

sprite

wow nice jiddish words with alt spelling

7:40 am

LoriP

Oooh, a new chair. Yea! Does it have a nice view of the overpriced unwanted new door? :)

7:41 am

Atalante

no! luckily. or else I'd have to throw things at it!

7:41 am

sprite

lovely Ata!

7:41 am

herinfernallady

Ata Nice. Is it a massage one/

7:41 am

LoriP

lol, not a bad trade though. He gets an ugly new door, BUT you get a cozy, comfy new chair. Bonus, not in view of the aforementioned door.

7:42 am

sprite

can you both work AND nap in it?

7:42 am

Atalante

lol true. no, no massages. and probably, it's so comfy!

7:42 am

Atalante

I could have bought 30 of these chairs for taht bloody door!

7:43 am

LoriP

Then I suggest you were robbed, if it isn't massaging you.

7:43 am

herinfernallady

wow Ata is it a front dorr that is fugly/

7:44 am

Atalante

yes, very ugly

7:44 am

Atalante

and very overpriced!

7:44 am

herinfernallady

wow. What sort is it at that price? Brings you breakfast or what?

7:45 am

Atalante

goodness knows. it looks just like an ugly front door to me!

7:46 am

herinfernallady

that does suck Ata

7:46 am

sprite

let him bang it on his permanent way out ;)

7:46 am

Atalante

do you think I can include the door as unreasonable behaviour?

7:47 am

sprite

absolutely. And as abuse.

7:47 am

Atalante

then it has a use :D

7:47 am

herinfernallady

Did he ASK you about it?

7:48 am

LoriP

I think a slier approach is warranted. Washing a new red blouse with his undies, turning them pink. That sort of thing.

7:48 am

herinfernallady

Sadly we have been ear bashed for 3 weeks now that marriage is not a contract

7:48 am

Atalante

only after he'd ordered it

7:48 am

sprite

everything is useful in the hands of an artistic thinking woman.

7:48 am

herinfernallady

**note to self don't upset Lori as I wouldn't want pink jocks if i was a guy**

7:49 am

Christine

I'm back, quick showe & a cup of tea. I've been sorting out fabric and notions to send to a lady in Oz -she's collecting for patchworkers displaced by the fires - I think I could hand-deliver this box, it's gonna cost so much to mail it.

7:49 am

herinfernallady

Oh and the colour would then be classed as Lavender or Salmon.

7:49 am

sprite

postage can be ugly indeed. But lovely thing to do, Chris.

7:49 am

herinfernallady

Christine Do you mind me asking what the cost is in US terms

7:50 am

herinfernallady

Oh And Christine that is a very sweet thing to do.

7:51 am

Frances

Christine where are you? See below.

Are you planning to attend the International Quilt Festival in Chicago? IQA will have a donation drop off location at the festival. IQA has generously offered to pay the shipping expenses of donated items that will be sent to Australia.

7:52 am

herinfernallady

OH MY Frances that is so terribly awesome.

7:52 am

Frances

I thought so too infernal.

7:52 am

sprite

fireworks for me. Loved the grid and the company. Thanks all and have a good day /'night/ whatever.

7:53 am

herinfernallady

Its just one of those things you don't think aobut.

7:53 am

Atalante

ok, hobbit wants attention. and I think she needs a brush because of course husband didn't bother when he came back with her after their walk! bbl!

7:53 am

herinfernallady

Yah Sprite

7:53 am

Frances

Bye sprite enjoy the baby tomorrow. Lots of pics please.

7:53 am

sprite

promise, Frances!

7:54 am

Frances

I think that Christine has fainted at the cost!

7:55 am

Christine

I don't know the cost, I'm going to the post office Monday or Tuesday. I won't be going to Chicago - I can barely walk from bedroom to front door. My favotite cab drivers all come into the driveway (not curbside) to get me, and carryin my packages when I get home. Just the thought of getting out of the cab at LAX turns my stomach

7:56 am

Frances

What a shame Christine. Ir would have been a solution for you.

7:56 am

herinfernallady

CHristine Could you mail it to someone to get to there?

7:56 am

72 Temple Owl

doyou think the organization would accept your mailed donation to a us sute? workth asking.

7:56 am

Frances

Good idea infernal.

7:56 am

herinfernallady

I mean could you mail to person A then person A could go and drop it off

7:57 am

fuquayvarina

You can ship International Priority Mail Flat Rate for about $54 -- all you can stuff into a 12x12x5 box. Still, a lot of money.

7:57 am

Frances

.....or perhaps you could mail direct to the quilt festival. That may be worth asking about too.

7:58 am

mrpresident

far out... cant sleep

7:58 am

herinfernallady

That is another idea Frances. I am sure post to your own country wouldn't drain the poor bank account

7:58 am

herinfernallady

Hi Mr Pres

7:59 am

mrpresident

hi infern... how you going?

8:00 am

72 Temple Owl

mr. p...this has becoma a regular thing for you

8:01 am

howdy all. nice juicy grid today!

8:01 am

Frances

May be worth trying to contact Karey Breshenhan

Director, International Quilt Festival - Houston, Chicago, Long Beach.

8:01 am

Christine

I got the address from a quilty blog, and I've posted a request in my guild newsletter - all quilters have extra fabric, and notions that looked better than they nworked for you, so I'm hoping to be able to send a larghe package next month. Perhaps the guild pettycash will pay postage. If not, I'll count it as one of my blessings that I'm not on the receiving end I think, if you've lost everything, and you're stuck in a shelter, getting back to your patchwork just might save your sanity

8:02 am

mrpresident

oh owl... I am a shocker!!

8:02 am

Frances

It would save mine Christine and I applaud you for caring enough to even think of sending your parcel.

8:03 am

My kids are now being treated like prince and princess president!

8:07 am

mrpresident

8:07 am

Frances

Probably a very stupid question but what has brought all this sleeplessness about?

8:07 am

herinfernallady

Wonderful Mr PRes so we are sharing those triple frilly girlie drinks on the beach at the moment in sweat FA land?

8:08 am

Christine

What if I spelled it deliveR?

8:08 am

mrpresident

frances... beats the hell out of me! I started working this year... I am stressed from my job... therefore, I don't sleep.
Perhaps I need meds

8:08 am

mrpresident

oh sweet FA land!! we are cozy on that couch!!

8:09 am

Frances

Do you think that perhaps you loaded too much onto your plate after a very stressful time with your surgery?

8:10 am

mrpresident

ah!! yes indeed christine!! I would love to come to America and introduce you all to some of the awesome food we have! I am going to open my own restaurant!

8:10 am

mrpresident

frances, you are right

but ... what do I do when I am a 'yes' person??

8:11 am

mrpresident

I feel guilty and useless if I say no... I need deep deep psychotherapy

8:12 am

mrpresident

I will say yes to anything... anything that help other people.

8:12 am

Frances

It is acceptable to say 'no' sometimes. The problem when you always say 'yes' is that people start to depend on you and they stand back and let you run yourself into the ground. Let others take some of the load for a while.

8:13 am

Christine

I no longer cook, so I order in almost every night - occasionally make a sandwich - and I need some new deliverers. I have a couple of Australian cookbooks, from way-back-when, and I also need a Japanese and a Chinese (not Thai/Chines) restaurant

8:14 am

mrpresident

I have been told I need to slow down, learn to say no... take it day by day... but no. I am a sucker and get sucked up by the human catfish of this world.
You have no idea how much I contribute to the community, and our school, and our sports club, and every volunteer organisation in my area.
Can someone help me???

8:15 am

72 Temple Owl

mr p - come on over, you'd fit right into our nice suburban community LOL

8:15 am

cybernan

learn to say NO

8:16 am

mrpresident

owl! If I was sponsored, I would be there! I love to do stuff forever

8:16 am

Frances

Exactly mrp!!! You must take a back seat for a while. The world will not fall apart. It means that others will have to start doing things instead of relying on you to do everything.

8:16 am

mrpresident

cybernan, easier said than done unfortunately

8:16 am

Christine

mrp - before I retired, I was the gubbins that everyone dumped on, because I always accepted that I was the one that did it best; a,azingly, the bank stayed in business after I retired, so I guess I wasn't indispensible.

8:16 am

mrpresident

frances, you wanna know what they did to me this weekend???

8:16 am

Frances

Tell me mrp.

8:17 am

72 Temple Owl

LOl and you couldmake a living at it, too! let's see..inour little country the leader of youth football embezzled thousands, so did the little league pres

8:17 am

72 Temple Owl

i meant COUNTY not country.! god knows who takes whatin government LOL

8:17 am

cybernan

yeah, I know -- got out of a lot of community orgs. once when my husband was transferred -- learned my lesson though -- said no a few times in the next community.

8:19 am

Frances

Don't start me on that TO. We have a government minister who is claiming thousands of pounds per year in housing allowance for dossing with her sister two or three nights a week.

8:19 am

mrpresident

I am soccer secretary (volunteer position).
The grading is on today... in 7 hours
I was emailed by the equipment manager, the merchandising manager, the all age manager, the coaching manager.... etc etc... that they can't do today.
Now... these f*%&ing pricks knew since September last year what was happening this weeking with grading.

8:19 am

JBV

hello, everyone - just stopping in to say hi, no time to babble right now, but wishing you all a good day (or night) and I wanted to share my favorite Comfort Food with you all.....

8:19 am

72 Temple Owl

did not mean to...only i was shocked to see it in grass roots community youth organizations

8:19 am

mrpresident

jbv, love you for it :)

8:20 am

JBV

mrp - i empathize with the "yes" syndrome - take a deep breath and practice saying "NO, THANK YOU" very loud

8:21 am

mrpresident

They do nothing else all year, but for the first month of the year of soccer... and they have been absent for the last 2 weeks, and the next 2 weeks.

8:21 am

72 Temple Owl

ah, i would be spaghetti aglio olio today it is my fav comfort food. yours looks wonderful jbv

8:21 am

Frances

mrp I would have been inclined (given your state of mind and body) to say 'neither can I'. I know you can't , but it would have been so tempting.

8:21 am

mrpresident

so, I am ready to blow my fuse!!

8:21 am

herinfernallady

Is this the food thing you have organised?

8:21 am

mrpresident

And in the next meeting, I will not hold back, I promise!! I have to do today... you ready for this?????

8:22 am

Christine

Owl, in Los Angeles, a woman is running for a ciy position, claiming the current holder/his office, paid (about) $15,000 to a feng shui expert to teach the employees to breathe and fight with swords, $130,000 for xray machines (still in the boxes) for animal services, and $5.7million in loans - with no record of who received the money ... if only they cared for our money as they do for their own

8:22 am

72 Temple Owl

i went to a class where we were taught that is the ONLY answer you give when folks are asking you to do something. no explanations, no elaboration. just lookt hem in the eye and say no until they stop asking.

8:23 am

mrpresident

Open the Canteen for soccer.
Take late registrations for soccer... of which there is at least 200.
Sell equipment to those registering.
Prepare lunch AND dinner for the graders (48 rolls/sandwiches/wraps) for each session.
I WANNA KILL SOMEONE

8:23 am

72 Temple Owl

all that from the same sorry lot? that is outrageous.

8:24 am

72 Temple Owl

do you hvae control of funds? if so i'd cater those meals out

8:24 am

mrpresident

owl, I wanna scream

8:25 am

Christine

I think I'm outa here; time to get some sleep. God bless, all

8:26 am

mrpresident

AND... I then have to work the next day for 6 hours... on my feet!
I am committed from 7am - 9pm today.... I don't know how this will end, but I will smile through it all and say thank you at the end

8:26 am

herinfernallady

MR PRES NO Tell them you are one person not many and they can go get fudged. You need at least 4 helpers for the food, prep and clean up that is if you were just doing that alone

8:26 am

mrpresident

I am such a puppet.... shoot me now.

8:26 am

Dippnall

don't usually interfere....but mrp, think of yourself and your own....delegate........or say no.......nature abhors a vacuum - someone will fil it. (husband's saying something about pots and kettles and blackness! lol!)

8:26 am

Frances

Christine I was a big time mug too. I started up and ran single handed the office of an international airline for two years - Fifteen hour days, the lot. Then we employed three others and by the time I retired after five years we were eight in total. Within three months of my retirement the office closed because they couldn't cope and couldn't find anyone to replace me. ''''''''swmug look'''''''''.

8:27 am

LoriP

Later Christine, sleep tight.

8:27 am

72 Temple Owl

there is always someon eelse. it's just laziness. the org will not fold

8:27 am

mrpresident

wholey hell frances! you were the backbone!

8:27 am

cybernan

call them back and announce that soccer is cancelled due to lack of volunteers

8:28 am

car.eeyore

Any LL words today?

8:28 am

Dippnall

no car

8:28 am

car.eeyore

TY!

8:28 am

mrpresident

it is 1.30am, and I have to boil eggs for tomorrows lunch rolls...

8:29 am

mrpresident

I should just shoot myself now... wait for the wake and congratulate myself for no one turning up.

8:29 am

LoriP

No car, no ll words

8:30 am

72 Temple Owl

next time hit them in the pocketbook. they'll stop asking. say you'll be glad to organize lunch, you will need $5 for each

8:30 am

mrpresident

sorry all.
I am being negative, but am seeing how stupid I am

8:30 am

Christine

I know, I left a job that had needed two women before me, because I could nevefr leave when the office closed, always something that the others hadn't done, and after I left, they had three women in that department. One day, waiting for the bus, I just started crying (not me) and a lady asked why. I told her I was so tired, I couldn't sleep or eat and I was nasty to my daughter - she said to quit, it couldn't be any worse, and shse was so right

8:30 am

cybernan

MrP -- If you don't like it all you have to do is reschedule the meeting -- if no one will show up, announce the due to lack of parental support, there will be no soccer this year -- that should wake them up!

8:31 am

Frances

mrp the time has come to call a halt. AFter the weekend which I can see that you're committed to please start to say 'no' for the sake of your sanity.....and if the eggs are for football I'd be inclined to boil them until they are as hard as bullets.

8:31 am

mrpresident

oh owl! I am getting paid... don't you worry... they will get an enormous bill from me.
And my darling daughter is running canteen... so she is being paid $100 for the day.

8:31 am

72 Temple Owl

aw, mr. p cut yourself a break! you're tired and overwrought. frances that's another sure way not to get invited back LOL

8:31 am

Christine

cybermab - best hint yet

8:33 am

Frances

It is in your hands mrp. Just make sure you do it - please. We all love you here and hate to see you cracking up like this.

8:33 am

Christine

gone, gone, really gone this time

8:33 am

Frances

Bye Christine.

8:33 am

mrpresident

thanks girls! you help me see the light!
I love you all so much and appreciate the words of wisdom.
I know I have committed, but this has to stop. I am known as the 'yes' woman... this needs to be addressed post haste!
Thank you all for your enormous support and I just needed a good pep talk!

8:34 am

herinfernallady

MR PRES hun from a kitchen monkey point of view you need at least 4 people on food

8:34 am

8:35 am

mrpresident

sorry, I am crying... give me a few minutes... will be back

8:35 am

Frances

Just one last postscript. Slow down and you may actually put some weight on.

8:35 am

gramma

Hi all. Just in time to give advice. My sister taught me this one. When asked to do something, you say "Let me think about how I could help you with that. I'll get back to you." It buys you the time to think about what , if anything, you can reasonably do.

8:36 am

car.eeyore

Gramma, that is how we do it in this family too.

8:36 am

Frances

Just going to the shop for tissues. Back in about ten.

8:36 am

72 Temple Owl

gramma, that could backfire, could beinterpreted as your committment to help and at last moment they'd stun you with it and you'd be trapped.

8:37 am

72 Temple Owl

*zips it* sorry. time to go . happy babbling, all!

8:37 am

car.eeyore

Bye TO! Have a great day!

8:38 am

It's good for their vocabulary mrp

10:21 am

dcseain

my projet mgr at work actually studied games for their educational value, and this one ranked high for her class.

10:21 am

mrpresident

I am listening to the patter of rain on the roof... it is beautiful! It means we are in no danger of fires

10:22 am

magazinemom

that's great news mrp!

10:22 am

dcseain

oh, rain is wonderful news, mrp!

10:22 am

cherlyq63

thats good

10:22 am

mrpresident

too right mag! maddie gets heaps of words for me! and she is totally proud when she gets a 7 letter!!!

10:22 am

magazinemom

okay I managed to get the jammies and t-shirts folded while I was sitting here chatting...perhaps I should look for some words!

10:23 am

dcseain

mayhap, magmom, though folding laundry is a laudable accomplishment

10:23 am

cherlyq63

10:24 am

magazinemom

10:24 am

mrpresident

pitterpatter... do ya reckon soccer grading will be on this morning??
I wanna shoot the grader... *smile* just my personal opinion

10:25 am

dcseain

what is soccer grading?

10:25 am

mrpresident

hi dcs!!

10:25 am

mrpresident

we have grading for about 700 for this soccer season.

10:27 am

mrpresident

now, it is pouring down... it is 3.30am.... there is no way the grounds will be able to cope.
But... and I say BUTT.... they want to grade the kids this day.

10:28 am

mrpresident

the grounds will be ripped to shreds if we let them grade. It is up to the club, but we will pay huge $$$ for the damage

10:28 am

mrpresident

would you like to know what I did??

10:28 am

phaeton

sure

10:29 am

Takuma Sato

howdy folks

10:29 am

magazinemom

hi tak

10:29 am

phaeton

hi tS

10:29 am

mrpresident

I booked an indoor soccer arean for grading... 2 fields together...
and they 'hummed' over that

10:30 am

magazinemom

that sounds about right mrp

10:30 am

mrpresident

magmom. they are all.... hmmmmm

10:30 am

mrpresident

I wanna shoot them

10:32 am

magazinemom

it sounds like our parks and rec department here

10:32 am

Takuma Sato

no, don't shoot them. just grade them

10:32 am

mrpresident

we are NOT going to have repreival from the weather. They need to pull there 'cocks' in and accept the conditons

10:32 am

JBV

hi again - back from breakfast and ready for the next 183 words! how is everybody?

10:32 am

mrpresident

sato! hi!

10:33 am

magazinemom

hi jbv

10:33 am

JBV

what is grading? mrp - is it ranking the players for teams?

10:33 am

dcseain

so, what's it like living somewhere with enough soccer facilities to meet demand?

10:33 am

mrpresident

JBV, we are talking soccer grading

10:33 am

phaeton

hi jbv and dcs

10:33 am

Takuma Sato

I thought you meant grading the fields

10:33 am

JBV

but my question is what is grading?

10:34 am

dcseain

mrp, that means nothing to me either. nover heard of soccer grading.

10:34 am

JBV

hi magmom, I see our comfort foods are very similar!

10:34 am

Takuma Sato

like flattening and making sure they drain well

10:34 am

cherlyq63

oh let me check yours out jb

Hi y'all. What's today's theme?

10:35 am

magazinemom

ah nice jb, another one of my faves!

10:35 am

mrpresident

dcs, I am secretary... so they can kiss it right now.... it is pissing down, and it is 3.30am.... the grounds will be a bog.
I am very upset that I have to be there at 7am, cause it will be a complete mess, and we will have to pay 5x more to use the field

10:35 am

magazinemom

matty- it's comfort foods

10:35 am

cherlyq63

love nacho's

10:36 am

mattygroves

Aaah. mmmm

10:36 am

dcseain

that sucks. does rain not delay things? ah, guess not, from what you're sayin

10:36 am

mattygroves

Hi everyone by the way!

10:36 am

magazinemom

I made nachos yesterday...yummy!

10:36 am

mrpresident

we could just use an indoor field next week. but the grader is an ignorant

10:36 am

dcseain

hi, matty

10:36 am

mrpresident

mag... pass them over

10:36 am

JBV

grader, grading, hmmm, must be an australian thing

10:37 am

mrpresident

no, it is the grader...he is a dick

10:37 am

dcseain

indeed, jbv

10:37 am

mrpresident

oops! did i use a bad word!?

10:37 am

JBV

waiting for a definition, mrp

10:37 am

magazinemom

*passes plate of nachos to mrp*

10:37 am

phaeton

mrp...we americans don't understand what you mean by "grading"

10:38 am

dcseain

no, mrp. We do not understand at all what you mean by 'grading' in this context

10:38 am

Takuma Sato

do you mean grading as in preparing the fields, mrp, or as in rating the fields?

10:38 am

JBV

rating the players is my guess

10:38 am

cherlyq63

does he use the tractor

10:39 am

cherlyq63

or kind of like an umpire maybe

10:40 am

JBV

tantalizing, but I must go - hope to find out later

10:40 am

Takuma Sato

ciao jbv

10:40 am

dcseain

until later, jbv

10:41 am

cherlyq63

ae8 and ae9 - those who appreciate beauty

10:42 am

dcseain

ty, haz :) how are you?

10:42 am

Takuma Sato

MrP's complaint sounds similar to one we had when I was coaching lacrosse - we had to pay to use fields, but they could occasionally be in wretched condition

10:42 am

Haz1558

I'm well, thanks.

10:42 am

Vicuna

Hello, Citizens of Babbleland.

10:42 am

mattygroves

Thanks Haz!

10:43 am

dcseain

vi! hello :)

10:43 am

Vicuna

Hey, dcseain. I haven't seen you in a while! I hope you're well.

10:43 am

Haz1558

You're welcome.

10:43 am

cherlyq63

ok, we have graders smooth the road here in texas

10:43 am

dcseain

yes, here fields are free, but the parks authorities review fields and fine leagues that overly damage them.

10:43 am

cherlyq63

makes sure no potholes lol

10:43 am

Takuma Sato

and that preparation was sometimes called 'grading'

10:44 am

dcseain

i am, vicuna, ty, and you?

10:44 am

Vicuna

Indeed I am, seain... as always! =D

10:44 am

Haz1558

I think she was talking about players, though.

10:44 am

Takuma Sato

flat, no holes, draining well, no big rocks, no big mud hole in front of the goals, etc

10:44 am

cherlyq63

leeches

10:44 am

cherlyq63

oops sorry

10:45 am

10:45 am

Apparently I am one, cherlyq, as I will le5 that word off you! lol

10:45 am

dcseain

graders are dirt zambonis :)

10:46 am

Takuma Sato

heh, haz - we can take bets!

10:46 am

Vicuna

If I were a betting woman I'd put my money with Haz.

10:46 am

cherlyq63

yw, but it wasnt on purpose lol

10:46 am

Haz1558

She talked about 700 players to be graded earlier on. I wouldn't like to take your money without declaring previous knowledge.

10:46 am

Takuma Sato

ah, ok

10:46 am

dcseain

yes, i do think so too, haz.

10:47 am

Takuma Sato

maybe she meant flattening the players, removing stones from them, etc

10:47 am

skooj

could i get a clue for the ch6/24 next to the tv show?

10:47 am

Vicuna

And while some of those players might be improved by a little flattening, most people frown on squishing that many children.

10:47 am

dcseain

google seems to indicate it's a ranking system of some sort, but i'm not sure abut that

10:47 am

Takuma Sato

lol, vic - like mins...

10:47 am

Takuma Sato

I'm betting with haz, then

10:47 am

dcseain

indeed, vi, at least all at once

10:47 am

Takuma Sato

er, like minds, not mins

10:47 am

12:21 pm

Aloyisius

ouch, Dorens... did you fall on your xc skies or something exciting like that?

12:21 pm

Dorens

12:22 pm

Uneaixoise

yeeeeouch!

12:22 pm

12:22 pm

Atalante

owie!

12:23 pm

Dorens

fortunately, babbling doesnt hurt at all. But laughing does, so no good jokes, please

12:23 pm

mrpresident

I have a delightful story for you all

12:23 pm

Dorens

hah. just read that aloy, after I typed. what made me realize i needed medical care was yesterday at school clutching my chest as i laughed... seemed a weird sort of thing to do

12:23 pm

mrpresident

chic, i will try and log in... yahoo is being nasty to me!!

12:24 pm

Dorens

ok, so aloy, tell me what to do and not to do, cause my doc is away for the weekend and i was unhappy with the care I got at the covering med group

12:24 pm

Aloyisius

ooh, I know.. and it really does take a long time to heal, rats..

12:24 pm

chic

ok mrp...mama just came on...

12:24 pm

cherlyq63

la# 7 something you do with soap

12:24 pm

Dorens

12:24 pm

mrpresident

12:24 pm

12:25 pm

12:25 pm

Dorens

and it lasted how many weeks (if you remember)?

12:25 pm

12:28 pm

Dorens

thanks mamabear... gentle is what i need

12:29 pm

mamabear

ribs are hard to heel

12:30 pm

mamabear

how are you, mrp, chic, everyone?

12:30 pm

cherlyq63

they used to tape them but not I guess they dont

12:30 pm

Dorens

this is what i fear.... my extra pounds need activity, but apparently that will not help the healing process

12:31 pm

mrpresident

my yahoo chat is disconnected!!
someone get me a knife!

12:31 pm

Atalante

let them heal first, dorens, otherwise they won't heal well and will continue to aggrevate

12:31 pm

Dorens

no apparently if they tape them it iinhibits deep breathing which could cause lung problem. so at night to sleep i just need major narcotics!!

12:31 pm

mamabear

ahhhh that's what you were trying to do

12:32 pm

Goldies2

hey

12:32 pm

mrpresident

I am ok mama! sick as a dog (still trying to work out where that saying came from) for 3 weeks... stole Maddies antibiotics and am 500% better now!

12:32 pm

cherlyq63

yep, I went 6 long weeks with mine taped, I hated it , couldnt breathe

12:32 pm

Dorens

yes ata, that does make sense. have to try to be rational. but do you realize how many times a day you need to reach for something, or bend down to pick something up, and each time it aggravates. i can't just spend the days in bed. oooh cherly that does sound worse

12:32 pm

mamabear

well I'm sorry you were sick, but glad about the 500% better now

12:33 pm

mrpresident

hehehehe! let's not tell maddison I pirated her drugs

12:33 pm

mamabear

she won't hear it from me!

12:33 pm

cherlyq63

me niether

12:34 pm

cherlyq63

neither

12:34 pm

Atalante

I think there's a difference though between continuing one's normal activity and adding extra exercise :)

12:34 pm

kje

mrp - what time is it there?

12:34 pm

mrpresident

5.35 am

12:35 pm

Dorens

true, true. but when the normal activity is enough to make me wince and say ouch out loud, then i wonder if it is hindering the healing as well.

12:35 pm

Dorens

guess i will call off the dinner i was making for tomorrow evening

12:35 pm

mrpresident

I haven't slept a wink, and I have a huge day ahead of me

12:35 pm

This 'sleepover' is way over the top!!

12:47 pm

Aloyisius

mrp, I think your sense of responsibility is keeping you awake.. and now that I have offered my opinion, free of charge and unsolicited, I am off to get some stuff done here so I can snooze worry free tonight.. take care, mrp.. and Dorens, and all you super babblers! See you next grid. Pax. BR..

1:17 pm

Atalante

1:17 pm

Atalante

1:17 pm

Haz1558

Yes, I've been working on my upper body strength, you must have perceived that by my firm striking of the keys.

1:17 pm

featherbee

hope he figured out how to turn off the notification that people are following him!

1:17 pm

Dorens

oh no vic, that actually made me laugh and i had slight twinge of pain. (liking these pain meds tho!)

1:18 pm

Vicuna

(Sorry, Doren.) I could certainly tell, Haz. You type with authority.

1:19 pm

Haz1558

Yes. And no over-use of punctuation marks, you'll have noticed that as well?

1:19 pm

harpjane

could someone clue the st7 after gazes?

1:19 pm

Vicuna

Haz, you are an example to us all.

1:19 pm

Atalante

1:19 pm

Good morning lynxxx.

1:20 pm

harpjane

thanks

1:20 pm

featherbee

lol ata. wonder what it will be by tomorrow.

1:20 pm

Vicuna

Doren, I hate to add any pain to your lot at this difficult time, but I can't help but notice that your cat appears to be in an earthquake. Either that or was bitten by a radioactive spider.

1:21 pm

Haz1558

You're welcome, harpjane.

1:22 pm

Haz1558

It'll have been a spider escaped from Australia. They have the worst types there. I wonder how it got radioactive, though?

1:22 pm

Vicuna

Secret government lab work, of course, Haz. Don't you know anything? Where's your tinfoil hat, anyway?

1:22 pm

harpjane

plus it's kind of odd to name a cat after a chateau

1:22 pm

featherbee

may i have help with the lower right A please?

1:23 pm

Vicuna

Chateau actually makes kind of a nice name for a chat!

1:23 pm

Haz1558

My tinfoil hat has been sent for reinforcing. It's just not strong enough, I reckon.

1:23 pm

harpjane

ae 8 and ae9 feather

1:23 pm

Vicuna

ae8/45 and pl - folks who appreciate beauty

1:23 pm

harpjane

someone who likes beautiful things

1:24 pm

featherbee

ah, thank you!

1:24 pm

aslindy

westle is not a word, just so you all know

1:24 pm

featherbee

ok, how about the E over the W? it's my last zero box.

1:24 pm

Vicuna

Hmmm. Well, Haz, as long as you're making an effort to keep on top of the situation, I guess...

1:25 pm

Vicuna

3 ea's, featherb.

1:25 pm

featherbee

whoops, found it!

1:25 pm

harpjane

es6/36 i think

1:25 pm

featherbee

got one of 'em, i'm set. thanks!

1:25 pm

Haz1558

I'm taking all necessary precautions, Vi. I'm just worried that I won't be able to put the tinfoil hat over the eccentric bird.

1:25 pm

featherbee

gotta go run errands, bbl.

1:25 pm

aslindy

do they all have the same 3rd letter, too?

1:25 pm

Vicuna

Maybe the hat can go on first, then the eccentric bird, then another smaller hat for the eccentric bird to wear. And perhaps on top of it all, a cherry.

1:26 pm

aslindy

the 3 ea's, I mean

1:26 pm

Dorens

sorry that lucy seems to be horizontal. don't know how to remedy that. as far as the chateau, I had deleted it, but forgot to "update"

1:26 pm

Atalante

and whipped cream

1:26 pm

Dorens

oh, cherry on top, that helps everything, i'm sure. why not hot fudge sauce as well?

1:26 pm

aslindy

never mind, I found them all

1:26 pm

harpjane

sh7 before the ghetto?

1:26 pm

Haz1558

Good thinking VI. I like the idea of the bird having its own hat.

1:27 pm

Dorens

alt spellling village.. add an extra vowel harpjane

1:27 pm

JBV

7:04 pm

nrkii

we should plan another get together for Baltimore or Delaware... maybe some of the more north folks could join!

7:05 pm

CiociaJudy

I was chatting with Lil*Monkey the other day and we were talking about NYC

7:05 pm

dcseain

Paper Moon Diner in W29th ST on Baltimore is nice

7:05 pm

Trifioso

we were mulling this over just yesterday or the day before, nrkii. NYC or Atlantic City were the front runners

7:05 pm

dcseain

NYC or Philly would be good, too

7:05 pm

nrkii

ooh, NYC is much closer for me :)

7:05 pm

CiociaJudy

or maybe a cruise!!! LOL

7:05 pm

nrkii

Atlantic City works too

7:05 pm

nrkii

can I gamble?

7:06 pm

Trifioso

oh, yes, Judy, you were there too when we were discussing it. I still think somewhere between Boston and DC would work for many people. It would also loop in the CT and PA folks

7:06 pm

Scrabbler

I could go to my sister's home in NJ and then she would love to go down to AC with me.

7:06 pm

dcseain

of course, nrkii

7:06 pm

Trifioso

only with letter, nrkii

7:06 pm

nrkii

yay Scrabs... Atlantic City sounding better and better

7:06 pm

CiociaJudy

that would be great Scrabbler

7:07 pm

Trifioso

for a minute there nrkii, judy or somebody was planning it in my backyard, having everyone bring tents, etc.

7:07 pm

Scrabbler

I have been to AC twice--my sister loves to gamble, and she gets comps for hotel stays.

7:07 pm

Scrabbler

I actually hate AC but it would work for all of us.

7:07 pm

nrkii

we could have it in my backyard, but no room for a tent

7:08 pm

Scrabbler

Yahoo Trif, I love New England!

7:08 pm

Scrabbler

We could meet here--5 bedrooms, but bunnies in 4 of them.

7:08 pm

nrkii

actually, Boston area would be just as easy for me... I can stay with my parents in Springfield, MA

7:08 pm

Trifioso

I was so disillusioned the first time I visited AC as an adult. I thought it was gonna be all fancy like the casinos on TV - instead it was welfare moms with kids in strollers, hitting the slots. total bummer

7:08 pm

o-o

Excellent photos, Dr_God

7:08 pm

CiociaJudy

we could tour the oldest brewery in the US and go underground to a coal mine in my neck of the woods

7:08 pm

nrkii

but NY or AC more central...

7:09 pm

Trifioso

nrkii, you would be very welcome here too!

7:09 pm

nrkii

Trif, when was that?

7:09 pm

Trifioso

um....sometime around 1991 or 92, so a long time ago. The Trump place had just opened, I think

7:10 pm

Scrabbler

Casinos make me so sad---people throwing money away, closed environment, smoke, alcohol....ugh

7:10 pm

nrkii

CJ, that brewery sounds cool... had no idea "Y" (can't spell it) was American beer

7:10 pm

nrkii

Trif, it's a LOT better these days

7:10 pm

car.eeyore

mac & cheese anyone?

7:10 pm

CiociaJudy

not fond of AC; prefer Vegas; but I can certainly do AC to meet up with all of you

7:10 pm

CiociaJudy

7:10 pm

7:10 pm

This grid today has made my brain ce5/12 go into sh 5/12 madness! I would ra 4/4 grid a 1 out of 10. This is one of the biggest grids I've ever se4/4. I have to admit I was a ch 7/36 & tried to use Licketyâ€™s list to ch 5/14,but I still canâ€™t finish the grid. I put a ha4/5 to this grid after 184 words. I thought I may ha 4/5 from frustration if I continued.ha4/5 it when I donâ€™t finish a grid!My hubby also ha5/12 when I babble too much. I'd like to thank all cluers today. You guys are my he 5/12.I think itâ€™s ne 4/4 they way you come up with clever clues. Itâ€™s even ne 6/18 when your clues help people finish the grid.I would like to ch5/14 and give th 5/12 ch 6/24 for everybody who stuck it out to finish the grid today!ha 4/5 off to you!You should reward yourself with a good wine and some ch 6/24. Well, since I am not going to finish the grid I sh 5/12 leave my se4/4 and go ne 6/18 in my bed sh5/12 and read a good book. It is ra 4/4 for me to close babble this early on a weekend,but grid is a little st 5/10. I would ra 6/21 read my book. he 5/14 goodnight to all
