westford

I suppose I could wrap this up if I got the list

2:34 am

joshuavorbis

i can already tell which tiles are going to drive me nuts today

2:34 am

westford

there is a list I presume?

2:34 am

joshuavorbis

i have not checked for a list, idk

2:34 am

sprite

back, and it was delightful :)

2:34 am

jillibus

there is indeed, and I've been using it as usual

2:35 am

westford

what did you do sprite?

2:35 am

jillibus

nice, sprite!

2:36 am

sprite

I ate a lovely Mother's Day breakfast and got some very cute gifts the kids made themselves

2:36 am

westford

jilli I always use the list if there is one just don't always go right away

2:36 am

westford

those are the very best kind sprite

2:36 am

jillibus

I go to the list when I get NBT

2:37 am

jillibus

what was for breakfast, sprite?

2:37 am

sprite

absolutely, the only kind I want. No big things, this is perfect.

2:37 am

westford

trouble is I still don't have NBT

2:37 am

sprite

toast with smoked salmon, and coffee, jilli!

2:37 am

jillibus

we all have our little ways ;)

2:37 am

joshuavorbis

the ix5 gave me trouble, and i found an il8 for the i on the right column

2:38 am

westford

trying for that ix

2:38 am

westford

mmm sprite makes me think of bagels with cream cheese and lox

2:39 am

jillibus

nice breakfast, sprite!

2:39 am

sprite

mmm that sounds lovely too. But I am a sucker for smoked salmon. You can wake me up for it at 2 am and I'll be happy.

2:39 am

joshuavorbis

i want bagel and lox pls

2:40 am

jillibus

sometimes I treat myself to a sandwich for lunch -- dark Russian rye, cream cheese, capers, lox, romaine lettuce. Yum.

2:40 am

sprite

it was, jilli :)
So sweet, when the children and my love cooperate to make me something truly delicious.

2:41 am

jillibus

lox = smoked salmon, sprite

2:41 am

westford

I wish the stores were open now

2:41 am

rbud

josh - add ending to the il 8 for the il 10

2:42 am

sprite

oh! I was thinking a member of the onion family.

2:42 am

joshuavorbis

oooh, tyvm

2:43 am

sprite

many of those end in -look in dutch. Knoflook (garlic), bieslook, etc. Totally wrong deduction from my part.

2:44 am

westford

I can see how that would happen sprite

2:45 am

sprite

my 'something-new-learned' for today :)

2:45 am

jillibus

mine too!

2:45 am

westford

and I learned garlic in Dutch lol

2:45 am

sprite

:)

2:46 am

jillibus

is bieslook onion?

2:46 am

sprite

bieslook is chives

2:47 am

sprite

and onions is 'uien' - don't even try to pronounce that, grin.

2:47 am

jillibus

ah -- what's onion, then?

2:47 am

westford

that would be a good babble word

2:47 am

jillibus

ok, won't try, lol!

2:47 am

sprite

ah, oh yes!

2:48 am

jillibus

my guess at pronunciation isn't far from onion without the first n

2:49 am

sprite

there is no way to explain the -ui- sound in english, because it does not exist in that language.

2:50 am

jillibus

darn -- and my Dutch friend here died so I can't ask her

2:51 am

rbud

I once asked an online friend from Norway how to pronounce her name, and she put up a link for a site where a lady pronounced lots of Norwegian names, it was very interesting.

2:51 am

jillibus

Zuider Zee sound?

2:52 am

jillibus

or is that Zuyder Zee?

2:52 am

rbud

?? don't know, but I could maybe find it if I looked.

2:53 am

sprite

yes! There is the -ui-. And then add -yen-, without putting stress on the e.

2:53 am

sprite

oh great, rbud!

2:53 am

westford

If I want onions in Holland I'll point to them

2:54 am

jillibus

that was my guess, sprite :)

2:54 am

westford

if I ever get there that is

2:55 am

sprite

I'd love to hear you say it, jilli! For most native speakers of english it is unpronounceable. Like the -eu- sound. Very dutch.

2:55 am

sprite

would be nice, west

2:55 am

westford

I was talking to my husband's sister and she said the Tulip Festival in Holland, Michigan was last weekend

2:55 am

westford

the next best thing

2:55 am

sprite

that is nice too, west!

2:56 am

westford

one thing she mentioned was they must replace thousands of the bulbs every year because the deer eat them

2:57 am

rbud

found the site with the names: http://tiny.cc/fWNxR

2:57 am

sprite

I can imagine. Not much deer here, alas, so easier on the bulbs.

2:58 am

jillibus

sprite, we were taught french pronunciations by the phonetic alphabet at school when we were about 7 and there are lots of sounds not used in English. Maybe that would make it easier for some of us to approximate ui -- ?

2:58 am

sprite

wow rbud, that is cool! Try Kjersti! :)

3:00 am

sprite

you are so right, jilli, I forgot about that!
The -ui- is how a word like fauteuil ends in sound!

3:00 am

rbud

I know I tried to say some of the names myself - very difficult.

3:01 am

sprite

I was trying myself, rbud, and it is really tough indeed! Singsongy language, isn't it.

3:02 am

rbud

My friend's name is Hege, and it's not like I thought it would sound, lol!

3:03 am

sprite

good one!

3:04 am

sprite

jilli, I found the fe6 words. Do you have them already?

3:06 am

rbud

I have fe6 x 2, are there more?

3:06 am

sprite

jilli is deep into Norwegian, I bet :)

3:06 am

sprite

no, 2 is all

3:07 am

jillibus

you're right, sprite -- and I bookmarked it for future reference!

3:07 am

o-o

I ev words I am unable to pronounce

3:07 am

sprite

me too, great site, rbud, thanks for looking it up for us

3:08 am

sprite

hi BabbleRabble, glad to see you. Just in ti4 to see me fireworking.

3:08 am

rbud

yw :)

3:08 am

jillibus

I have the first fe6, not the second...

3:08 am

westford

thanks for the site rbud I bookmarked it for later the cat is calling and I am falling...to sleep

3:08 am

sprite

switch consonants in the middle, jilli

3:08 am

jillibus

You have fireworks already, sprite? Wowie!!!

3:08 am

sprite

sleep well west

3:08 am

westford

see you all next time and Happy Mother's Day

3:09 am

jillibus

thanks sprite -- strange word to me

3:09 am

rbud

nite, west, you too!

3:09 am

jillibus

night west!

3:09 am

sprite

I should have fireworked twice, once for the good words and once for all the phantoms I found!

3:09 am

rbud

well, congrats, sprite!

3:09 am

jillibus

oh yes, lots of phantoms!

3:09 am

o-o

congrats, sprite

3:10 am

sprite

thanks :) Anything I may clue for you before I go?

3:10 am

o-o

could use a clue for the meaning of life?

3:11 am

jillibus

that little il4/6 is driving me bonkers, sprite!

3:11 am

sprite

rhymes with your name, jilli :)

3:12 am

sprite

*refers BabbleRabble resolutely to Monty Python*

3:13 am

jillibus

ty sprite...

3:13 am

o-o

if life is a comedy, I don't understand the humor

3:14 am

sprite

'life is really very fantastic. But you must have a peculiar sense of humour to see the fun of it."

3:16 am

o-o

ah, no wonder. sans irony, sarcasm and the sardonic

3:17 am

jillibus

can't think, can't see words -- time for bed -- night all!

3:17 am

sprite

the rhyme in your profile is great, BabbleRabble, thanks for sharing.
And if I may say so, however bleak the image of your icon, I adore the colours.

3:17 am

sprite

night jilli, sleep well and take care of you

3:19 am

rbud

nite, jilli!

3:20 am

sprite

I think 'becilic' is my favorite word in the rhyme.

3:21 am

jillibus

very clever, babrab -- and *poof*

3:22 am

sprite

am off too, things to leave undone, places to leave unvisited. Bye all!
*special wave to BabbleRabble*

This is an Australian flag Josh...although very similar to NZ's..one star different

Awful, you didn't get a chance to say anything...but good that she had someone close to her when she passed.

4:34 pm

pugmama763

that was a blessing , we were all grateful he rushed to her side in the hospital

4:35 pm

pugmama763

it gets a bit easier each year

4:36 pm

mo

my thoughts are with you pug.

4:37 pm

lynxxx

Of course...but never forgotten

4:37 pm

pugmama763

have to wonder sometimes if it isn't better than watching somebody you love waste away slowly

4:37 pm

pugmama763

forget is not even a question the pain just becomes less acute

4:39 pm

pugmama763

anyway it gets easier to focus more on how glad I am (& she would be) with how nicely her grand kids have turned out

4:41 pm

pugmama763

any clues needed my lovlies before I face the (ugh!) vaccuming?

Hey there DR. Had a lovely day with my sister (kadresa) and her family, and my mom too. :)

5:32 pm

DR1965

Good for you! We have had a nice day as well

5:33 pm

DR1965

Will be seeing MIL in about 2 hours

5:33 pm

Trifioso

is that you son in your icon?

5:33 pm

DR1965

yes - a couple of months ago was crazy tie day at school

5:34 pm

Trifioso

wow,he looks WAY older than 10! is he tall?

5:34 pm

DR1965

his tie is peppy le pew the skunk

5:34 pm

5:35 pm

Nef

Hello, Fellow Babblers. Happy Mothers' Day to all!

5:36 pm

DR1965

Hi NEF!

5:36 pm

Trifioso

and you, nef!!!

5:36 pm

DR1965

thank you Trif! and to you as well

5:36 pm

Nef

Hi DR! How's lifetreating you?

5:36 pm

DR1965

yes, Nef- Happy mothers day to you as well

5:37 pm

DR1965

I am doing well Nef- thanks for asking. It has been a while

5:37 pm

Nef

I have a brand new grandson, 8 days old, and he's making HIS mother into witch right now (according to my son)

5:38 pm

Trifioso

is it their first baby?

5:38 pm

DR1965

hormones and lack of sleep can do that

5:38 pm

Nef

yep. My son is 30, his wife is 23; and she won't ask for help as she thinks she's supposed to know it all already

5:39 pm

Nef

hormones and lack of sleep is right. My son says he's got days and nights backwards

5:39 pm

Trifioso

oh, poor girl. She is trying to fit to expectations she has for herself.....she will adjust, I promise!

5:40 pm

DR1965

I did

5:40 pm

DR1965

Jake would not feed right and it took me a week to realize that it did not matter how he got nourished as long as he did! It was a lightbulb moment

5:40 pm

Nef

I sure hope so, this has been a miserable 1st Mothers' day for them! My son is ready to leave her! (He'd take the baby he says!)

5:41 pm

DR1965

they need help!

5:41 pm

DR1965

I know she wont take it but what about a friend or someone she trusts

5:43 pm

Nef

she doesn't trust anyone right now. But I really don'twant to drag this chog down. How are all of you doing?

5:44 pm

DR1965

ok Nef- I am good - nice sunny day..

5:44 pm

DR1965

oh- brb- Jacob is calling

5:45 pm

torgone

Happy Mothers' Day all you mothers. ..

5:45 pm

Trifioso

Nef, don't worry - we have ALL been there. new babies are HARD. Tell your son to hold on, and help when he can. Someone has to gently tell her that moms all over the world ask for advice - look at all the childhood books out there! and there is no shame at ALL in asking

5:45 pm

Trifioso

(((((((torgone)))))))))))

5:47 pm

Nef

Hi torg. Thank you. Trif, on my Mothers Day card to her that I'd written in before I knew this, I'd written that parenting is the toughest job in the world and the baby doesn't come with an instruction manual.

5:51 pm

Nef

oh-oh. I broke the chog! :-O

5:51 pm

Trifioso

lol, nef, not at all - thought I would try to find some actual grid words. Foolish pursuit, really as I am pretty stuck

5:52 pm

Nef

I am too, that's why I'm chatting. I only have 51 words and can't see anything else

5:53 pm

Trifioso

same here - i am at 62 in, and feh

5:54 pm

o-o

variant spelling (s) of the needle container. ca 4 is in the grid

5:54 pm

o-o

ax -- an arouser that normally begins with ex

5:55 pm

o-o

ex 5 is a word for the tribute to mothers

5:55 pm

Nef

BR, you give great but obtuse clues. I appreciate that! :)

5:56 pm

o-o

those who find the words themselves with brag it is al 4

5:56 pm

nelleon

BR, you always rise to the occasion!

5:56 pm

o-o

will brag, not "with"

5:57 pm

rururocks

IT could also be a change in hormones as well as a lack of sleep NEF.. maybe your son isn't helping enough (according to you DIL)

5:59 pm

Nef

HI ruru. My son is so in love with both baby and new mom. He's really done all of the cooking and cleaning for the past month. I think she's just a bit whacko right now (hormonal)

6:00 pm

rururocks

she should see her doctor... there are things that they can do.

6:00 pm

Nef

BUT I refuse to be bossy or a pushy MIL and have offered help but have been turned down.

6:00 pm

rururocks

SOunds like he is doing all he can...

6:01 pm

o-o

post partum depression

6:01 pm

Nef

He is trying ....... How are you doing these days?

6:02 pm

rururocks

(it is also overwheming the first baby is a lot to handle)

6:02 pm

Trifioso

I vote for being pushy. show up with a cooked meal, hold the baby so she can take a shower, and just be there. and maybe run a load of clothes. See if you can go to the grocery.

6:03 pm

Nef

Trif, I did that already, cooked meals cleaned kitchen, my son went shopping while I was there.

6:03 pm

Trifioso

You ARE a good MIL!!! I still vote for pushy. I would have loved me some pushy, myself

6:04 pm

Nef

by the time we got around to having kids, both my mom and hubby's were dead.

6:04 pm

rururocks

wow.. how many kids do you have?

6:05 pm

Nef

I would have liked some help too; which is why I try; but I don't want to push her away

6:06 pm

Nef

ruru, I only have 2, had 2 miscarriages too. But had both of them after I was 30 yrs old

6:06 pm

rururocks

yes it would be wise to be careful if the two kids are fighting

6:07 pm

Nef

calt

6:07 pm

rururocks

That is better isn't it after thirty> aren't you more able to handle all the work better at that age?

6:07 pm

Nef

OOOPS! Sorry,

6:08 pm

Nef

Just a whole lot ore tired after 30, ruru! :-D

6:08 pm

Nef

Just a whole lot ore tired after 30, ruru! :-D

6:08 pm

rururocks

yeah I bet

6:08 pm

rururocks

happy mom's day to you nef.. bet you are a great mother

6:09 pm

Nef

Sorry, trying a different keyboard, and it isn't working well

6:10 pm

Nef

thanks ruru, I've tried hard to be a good Mom.

6:13 pm

o-o

Parents get one go at it. There are no do-overs.

6:14 pm

rururocks

yeah and there is no training involved either.

6:14 pm

Nef

so true, BR

6:16 pm

Nef

I always wondered WHY we get instructionmanualswitheverything else EXCEPT the important things in life (ie: spouses, babies, etc.)

6:16 pm

o-o

I tip my hat to Moms everywhere.

6:20 pm

nelleon

ty BR!

6:20 pm

Nef

this grid is kind of like pulling te***, isn't it?

6:22 pm

jillibus

6:45 pm

jillibus

Have you got the flu, stid? I am NOT, NOT, NOT getting a cold. I refuse to. This scratchy throat is in my imagination.

8:37 pm

Jacula

Stid - I hope you're not going 'Atchoo! OINK!'?

8:39 pm

stidmama

Stidkids are excited to come up and see you next month, but not sure yet exactly when. My classes start up again June 22

8:39 pm

jillibus

Anyone need clues?

8:39 pm

Pinikula

back

8:39 pm

stidmama

I haven't got the flu, but still recovering from a rather nasty headcold (I rarely get them) that went into my lungs (also rare) and now lingers as a sinus infection. Yes, Jac, more OINK than atchoo though

8:39 pm

Jacula

Not me, Jilli. Finished hours ago.

8:40 pm

dcseain

evening, jacula

8:40 pm

dcseain

hi, jill

8:40 pm

jillibus

hi DC

8:40 pm

Jacula

Stid - sinus infections are painful. Other Half had that not long ago.

8:40 pm

Jacula

Hi dcs.

8:40 pm

stidmama

Well, I should get this bibliography done. Would I be peculiar if I later use this paper as a jumping-off for a more detailed piece on the local history? It just feels so incomplete, but I lacked the energy to do my best.

8:41 pm

stidmama

Still, I am sure it's good enough for an A. I hope.

8:41 pm

Pinikula

I say go for it, stid!

8:41 pm

redturtlehead

not peculiar, resourceful and recycling.

8:41 pm

Jacula

Stid - if you can use something you've already done as a jumping off point, I'd say go for it.

8:41 pm

stidmama

thanks Pini, then I shall. It's really tied in to my current obsession with the local history... and would be a great resource (if done properly) for local teachers.

8:42 pm

redturtlehead

anyone else watching monk?

8:42 pm

jillibus

Stid -- I have a ticket for Oklahoma at Chemainus on June 20 (matinee) with my small group. If you want to join us please let me know soon

8:42 pm

stidmama

thanks all!

8:42 pm

Jacula

Not me, red.

8:42 pm

Pinikula

just consider the first draft, the Reader's Digest version of the complete work!

8:42 pm

stidmama

okay, back to work. see you-all again soon, probably tuesday... *giggling at reader's digest remark*

8:44 pm

stidmama

thanks jill, I don't think that will work, but will ask Mother and the boys what they can do. *fades out again*

8:44 pm

Pinikula

good backup, jilli

8:44 pm

Jacula

Just read your note about the mother's day icon, jilli, about how we should be grateful for the good ones.

8:45 pm

redturtlehead

its a very good monk.

8:46 pm

Jacula

Ironic really, considering a young girl I know got told today that her Mum doesn't want her any more; would prefer something/someone else.

8:46 pm

dcseain

http://tinyurl.com/ow7zgv <--- several of you will enjoy that musical pun post about the unincorporated town i live in that is overseen by 2 levels of Home Owner Associations, the lower level of which is called a Cluster.

8:47 pm

Pinikula

serious, jac? how sad!

8:47 pm

Jacula

Just listening to Rod Stewart's 'Maggie May' on my cd now.

8:47 pm

redturtlehead

oooh dc. i have a similar hoa...

8:47 pm

dcseain

nice, jac. sorry to hear, red. :)

8:48 pm

Jacula

Pink - v. serious. And it's me who's going to be picking up the shattered little angry, hurt, rebellious and upset pieces.

8:48 pm

redturtlehead

well, at least I dont live there anymore.

8:48 pm

Trifioso

could I please have a clue for the et 5, 18?

8:48 pm

redturtlehead

Jacula, thats nuts.

8:48 pm

Pinikula

why's that, jac?

8:48 pm

dcseain

trif, needlcase

8:48 pm

Pinikula

et5 = needle case?

8:48 pm

Jacula

Just hope my skill at puzzles will help me glue all the piece firmly back in place.

8:49 pm

Jacula

Pink - she's my stepdaughter, or would be if I was married toher Dad.

8:50 pm

Pinikula

does she live with her dad?

8:50 pm

dcseain

hint for last TE5, pls?

8:50 pm

Pinikula

how old is she?

8:50 pm

Pinikula

te5 = lone star state

8:50 pm

Jacula

dcs - cowboy state.

8:51 pm

redturtlehead

had not a clue that THAT would be a word.

8:51 pm

Jacula

Pink - no, she live with her Mum and her b'f.

8:51 pm

dcseain

oh, missed the A. ty, jac

8:51 pm

Jacula

Pink - she's 14.

8:52 pm

Pinikula

I would think, after this new development, that might change?

8:52 pm

Pinikula

Gads, i can't even imagine her having to stay with a mum that doesn't want her... sooooo sad

8:53 pm

dcseain

alabaster has ahold of my right wrist, and just groomed my hand and my watch

8:53 pm

Jacula

Pink - I'm going to have to do my best to be her stand-in Mum. I've been with her Dad for the past 6 years. She calls me her '2nd Mum', but I don't think either of us ever imagined I'd have to be her one and only.

8:53 pm

Pinikula

are they both all shiney now, seain?

8:54 pm

dcseain

well, part of my hand's a bit raw, as i'm less hairy than he is :)

jac, thank god you are in her life -- she will really need you now.

8:54 pm

Pinikula

Well (if not too offensive)...happy mother's day, jac! :)

8:54 pm

dcseain

hiya, jess

8:54 pm

Jacula

I didn't mean to say all that when I came in here. Said too mucu, but my heart was just bursting with the sadness and horror of it all.

8:54 pm

Pinikula

cute, seain

8:54 pm

Pinikula

hey jes

8:55 pm

Pinikula

no worries at all, jac!!!

8:55 pm

Pinikula

glad you shared...

8:55 pm

Jacula

Pink - *ironic smile*, I wasn't planning to become a Mum again at 52, with grown-up kids of 22 and nearly 25, but that's life...

8:55 pm

Pinikula

...even a little encouragement/support from those around the world in words is better than nothing!

8:56 pm

Pinikula

I hear you there, jac...but things happen...my girls are 22.5 and 26 (as of 2 days ago)...

8:56 pm

jesdraggon

el6 please?

8:56 pm

redturtlehead

jac, wish you the best, sounds horrid.

8:56 pm

Jacula

I'm still trying to get my head and heart around how any mother can DO that!

8:57 pm

Pinikula

...I didn't plan on becoming a GM at 40 and raising my GD only to have my sibling decide that my GD would be better off with them...

8:57 pm

Jacula

el6 - to wangle information out of?

8:57 pm

jesdraggon

thanks, jac

8:57 pm

Jacula

Pink - that's a real b*gger. Life's twists and turns are sent to try us.

8:58 pm

Pinikula

...so I had my girls, was raising my GD, and lost my entire family (parents and siblings) when she was taken.

8:58 pm

Pinikula

...and, sadly, my GD only lives 15 blocks away and my sister does not allow me to see/talk to her unless she is present...

8:58 pm

Jacula

How? Lost rest of family, Pink?

8:58 pm

Pinikula

* gulp...now look who's said too much *

8:59 pm

Jacula

That's really, really sh*tty, Pink.

8:59 pm

Pinikula

I raised my GD from birth to 6 yo...my sisters (2) talked my daughter (teenage mom) into giving my GD up for adoption...

9:00 pm

Jacula

People are very strange - other people, that is. Not we Babblers. We're human, fallible therefore, but loving, giving, caring and supportive.

9:00 pm

Pinikula

...to my sister ~ and the rest of the family decided if I was going to be sad about it, they didn't want to know...

9:00 pm

Pinikula

...so they simply don't talk to me anymore.

9:00 pm

Jacula

Oh God, Pink. That's awful.

9:01 pm

redturtlehead

Oh no, off topic, but Wildfires are starting up againin Florida. and near to me. sort of frustrating, we need rain.

9:01 pm

Jacula

How we all hide the sadness in our lives mostly. Doesn't hurt to show it at times, though.

9:01 pm

jesdraggon

il8,55 please?

9:01 pm

redturtlehead

there is nothing wrong with a good chat about things.

9:01 pm

Jacula

Red - I'll try to send you some of our rain.

9:02 pm

Pinikula

I suppose that's life...so, I now PICK my family (whether it be online or just my 2 girls, GD, new SIL and pending GS)

9:02 pm

Pinikula

il8 = sick + n***** american indian

9:02 pm

Pinikula

9:04 pm

9:05 pm

Jacula

Not giving clues, btw, 'cos Pink's doing it admirably.

9:05 pm

Pinikula

...hopefully, I'll be able to finish next weekend if it doesn't rain.

9:05 pm

Pinikula

* blush * sorry if I stepped on clue-toes!

9:05 pm

redturtlehead

fat, hairy chested men should not go on television without a shirt. Eeek!

9:05 pm

Jacula

So, I'm juust giving you the background music track. LOL

9:05 pm

Jacula

Pink - not at all! You carry on.

9:06 pm

redturtlehead

I vote for a clue-off, like a dance off, as I need 54 clues!!!

9:06 pm

Jacula

LOL red.

9:06 pm

Pinikula

9:07 pm

Jacula

I'm the DJ tonight and Pink is the cluer.

9:07 pm

redturtlehead

But I really would like some sleep, having got up at 4:30 ....

9:07 pm

Pinikula

what we should try sometime is to clue as creatively as possible (with the idea that someone else will not have thought of it)

9:07 pm

jillibus

horrified at the cruelties I just saw in the chat when scrolling back on re-arrival. What a Mothers' Day set of memories!

9:07 pm

ChloeKat

IL8/55?

9:07 pm

Pinikula

il8 = sick + n***** american indian

9:08 pm

Pinikula

9:08 pm

Pinikula

Pinikula

I believe his name now is Yusef.

9:11 pm

Jacula

He did have a new name, but he's Cat Stevens again now. LOL

9:11 pm

Pinikula

9:11 pm

jillibus

Well, I have to get supper, watch 60 Minutes, diddle around, and go to PBS for Wallander at 9pm, which doesn't end until half an hour after the flip. BUT, I've read the book, so I hope to be here for it.

9:11 pm

Pinikula

(I only learned about it a few months ago)

9:11 pm

Jacula

Years and years and years, Pink.

9:12 pm

Pinikula

9:12 pm

Pinikula

Enjoy your supper, jilli.

9:12 pm

I just tried towatch Wallander Jilli, I had not read the book and it didnt hold attention.

9:12 pm

jillibus

Glad to hear Cat Stevens is again a Cat.

9:12 pm

weiik

was lucky enough to see cat stevens in '72 in a small theatre, still have nice memories of that

9:12 pm

Pinikula

(I should go check on my dinner and take Koda to the backyard for a moment...brb)

9:12 pm

Jacula

weiik - was that in UK?

9:12 pm

dcseain

hm. the cats smell something outside that i cannot smell. it woke 2 of them up

9:13 pm

Jacula

Track playing now is 'Meet Me On The Corner' by Lindisfarne.

Hello all

9:14 pm

weiik

jac, it was at the academy of music in Phila, PA

9:14 pm

Scrabbler

I love, love, love Cat Stevens/Yusuf Islam. At my funeral I want "The Wind" played.

9:14 pm

Jacula

My cat trapped a mouse under a plastic drain cover earlier. He was trying to flip the cover up to get at the mouse and so I put half a housebrick on top of it. However, the stupid mouse squeezed out under a small gap right in front of the cat and that seald its fate.

9:14 pm

Dorens

ooh baby baby it's a wild world

9:15 pm

Scrabbler

Hi Doren

9:15 pm

Jacula

weiik - I saw him here in UK back in the 70s.

9:15 pm

dcseain

yay for nature running its course

9:15 pm

dcseain

hi, dorens and scrabbs

9:15 pm

Jacula

Dorens - Yes indeed. I also remember Jimmy Cliff covering that.

9:15 pm

Dorens

hi all... decompressing after a world wind non-stop day!

9:15 pm

Jacula

Hi Scrabbs.

9:15 pm

weiik

jac, did he have an 12 piece group of wind instruments with him, tea for the tillerman?

9:15 pm

dcseain

oh, btw, 9 days, and knock wood, i've not broken the temporary crown.

9:15 pm

redturtlehead

Hope it was a nice day Dorens. a variety of people have not had very nice Mom's days.

9:16 pm

Jacula

Track now playing is 'Standing in the Road' by gorgeous blond twins Blackfoot Sue. The only song I ever learned to play the bass line on guitar for. LOL

9:16 pm

redturtlehead

good job DcS.

9:16 pm

Dorens

jac that is an incredibly gorgeous george picture --- yah red it was a nice day, just a bit hectic and rushed, but nice over all

9:16 pm

Jacula

weiik - I'll check. I have both the LP and the cd somewhere.

9:17 pm

Scrabbler

I was playing with kittens of a feral cat when visiting in my aunt & uncle's home this weekend. There are 5 kittens, about 3-4 wks old, and I bought kitten food and placed water. I spoke to the neighbor who will bring the kittens and parents to the SPCA this week. The kitties are SO cute, especially the runt.

9:17 pm

Jacula

Dorens - forgot I'd still got the GG icon.

9:17 pm

dcseain

perm crown to be installed on the 22nd.

9:17 pm

dcseain

nice, scrabbs

9:18 pm

weiik

jac, I mean during the concert, here he sat on a ss

9:18 pm

redturtlehead

Scrabbs, are you going to get a kitten with the rabbits?

9:18 pm

Dorens

hard to take my eyes off of it, jac. but then again. it isn't a recent pic, is it?

9:18 pm

dcseain

my cats get on with my rabbit. the rabbit's even bonded with Feldspar to point he's excited to see her

9:18 pm

Scrabbler

Seain--I went through that about 15 months ago--$1200 adventure.

9:18 pm

Dorens

ah scrabs, kittens are darned cute, aren't they?

9:18 pm

redturtlehead

I like Jimmy Cliff.

9:18 pm

weiik

stool during much of the show, until tea for the tillerman, a curtain came up, lights went down, music burst out, everybody stood and clapped

9:19 pm

Dorens

1200 is a bargain. i needed an implant and it was over 5 X that... so be glad it was just a crown

9:19 pm

Jacula

Track now playing - Mungo Jerry 'Baby Jump'.

9:19 pm

Scrabbler

Nope, red, but I sure considered it. Those stray kittens were adorable and I spent a lot of time with them. They are living in a shed behind the fence. Two are quite friendly and I cuddled them up.

9:19 pm

dcseain

my out-of-pocket thus far has been 486, including drugs and 4 temporary crowns.

9:19 pm

Dorens

old crown just broke off, with most of the tooth, not enough left to crown again

9:20 pm

Jacula

Weiik - wasn't at the concert. Sorry.

9:20 pm

redturtlehead

I have a lot of trouble saying no to animals. very very cute.

9:21 pm

Jacula

Dorens - that's happened to me twice recently with molars. I'm still being electrified by the remains of one at present.

9:21 pm

Scrabbler

I am seeing my dentist tomorrow AM as I fear my tooth needs to be pulled after years of troubles--root canal, crown, new crown last year, apicoectomy almost 1 yr ago due to failed root canal, now pain...next step is implant. About $5000, Doren?

9:22 pm

redturtlehead

Scrabbs is it an important tooth? I fnot, I'd just get rid of it.

9:22 pm

Dorens

actually 6, but this is an expensive dentist who doesn't accept what delta offers, scrabbs

9:22 pm

Scrabbler

Red, my aunt told me calmly about the mother cat and kittens and I went into animal rescue mode. I put out water, bought food, checked on them many times.

9:23 pm

Jacula

Next step for me, Scrabbs, if the tooth doesn't settle down is extraction. That'll leave with 3 lower molars missing and a yet-again cracked jaw. I have rubbish te5/12 but very strong roots.

9:23 pm

Scrabbler

It is the second last molar on lower right. It originally cracked with a head injury in Nov 1981.

9:23 pm

redturtlehead

Well, scrabbs, if you get it pulled, no one will know...

9:23 pm

Jacula

Track now playing is 'The Ressurection Shuffle' by Ashton, Gardner & Dyke. Great track!

9:23 pm

Scrabbler

I don't think I can have a space there--bad for other te5 and jaw bone.

9:24 pm

Dorens

teeth are definitely not my strong suit, and obviously not for other babblers... is there a correlation between good word skills and rotten teeth?

9:24 pm

redturtlehead

My teeth are quite good, but my babble stats arent.

9:24 pm

Scrabbler

Te5 just wear out over time.

9:24 pm

Jacula

Dorens - I wonder?

9:25 pm

Dorens

ooh, red and i are to the pb!!

9:25 pm

Jacula

I was saying to my dentist last week that I hope we evolve to grow a 3rd set of te5 now we're all living longer.

9:25 pm

dcseain

there is a correlation between drinking bottled water and weak te5

9:25 pm

redturtlehead

Ooops. well, lets have ice cream.

9:25 pm

dcseain

hear, hear jac!

9:25 pm

dcseain

ice cream would be lovely.

9:25 pm

redturtlehead

Oooh, I dont dirnk very much bottled h2o..

9:26 pm

Dorens

makes sense jac, but by the time evolution has gotten there, don't know what will be left here

9:26 pm

redturtlehead

Well, its DOrnes and I , dc, if you want some, you have to drop a different word!!!!!

9:26 pm

I ate so much great Italian food when visiting the Italian relatives in Utica. And we went to an authentic Italian store with baked goods, cheeses, etc. Heaven!

9:29 pm

9:29 pm

Scrabbler

My mother's father grew up on Sicily, near Mt Etna <----Babblet alert!

9:29 pm

Dorens

they were jewish.. don't know how many jewish chicken framers there were

9:30 pm

dcseain

any Smiroldos in your family, scrabbs?

9:30 pm

Scrabbler

The reason for the visit was my uncle (mother's brother-in-law), age 86, with end-stage prostate cancer. It was sad to see him.

9:30 pm

Scrabbler

Nope, Ubertos and Mondos.

9:30 pm

9:32 pm

Scrabbler

Yes. He always thought he would live the longest of the 4 folks in Utica. the others are 86, 87 and 89.

9:32 pm

Dorens

wouldn't that be a agreat spot for a babble meetup?

9:33 pm

dcseain

indeed t'would, dorens

9:33 pm

Scrabbler

I still have family there, in Sicily, as 3 of my grandfather's sibs stayed behind. One of my cousins visited about 16 yrs ago.

9:33 pm

Sorry for my typos. It's 3.34am here.

Dorens - Yes! That would be brilliant.

Dorens

lol red.. utica is just not that interesting

9:35 pm

I am so sick & tired of this problem tooth #30.

9:35 pm

redturtlehead

Well, I was wondering Dorens....

9:35 pm

Dorens

time for the pain to disappear one way or the other, scrabbs

9:36 pm

Seain, #30 was in the 5% of failed root canals, thus apicoectomy last July for $1200 with 75% chance of it working. I fear not now and the idea of more pain and spending $5000 for an implant is sad.

scrab do you have any dental insurance?

9:39 pm

Since I played 3rd cd first, we've still got 2 to go. LOL

9:39 pm

Nope, but our group looked into a plan and it sucked.

9:39 pm

dcseain

my dentist quoted me 6k for 2 root extractions, a bone graft, 2 post and crown

9:40 pm

Scrabbler

A friend paid $5000 here for a molar last year. And, geez, right when I am getting ahead financially.

9:40 pm

dcseain

i have terrific insurance. covered 90% root canal, 60% crown prep

9:40 pm

You are very lucky, Seain!!

Less pain with dental insurance.

9:41 pm

And, if I'm still standing (or rather sitting and typing) after that I might play the pirates and wenches cd my daughter gave me today - Alestorm's 'Captain Morgan's Revenge'.

I'm just a humble and frightened pawn in the UK NHS dental 'service'.

9:42 pm

Scrabbler

Poor Jac.

9:42 pm

Dorens

insurance really makes a difference. my plan isn't terrific, but even if it pays 50% that is a lot if the cost is 6,000.. unfortunately, it didn't think this was necessary, not at my dentist's prices, so it cost me a bundle!

Dorens

yup. busy with babies. loved traffic in those days though. john barleycorn must die

9:52 pm

dcs - glad you see why.

9:54 pm

Jacula

Dorens - much of the mid to late 80s music passed me by for the same reason. After all, I had a baby son who could only be lulled to sleep by hearing Jimi Hendrix played LOUD.

9:55 pm

Dorens

and how did he turn out? are you experienced?????

9:55 pm

Jacula

I've had enough of the 70s now., Going to put the cd my daughter gave me into the slot.

as well he should. i have to say ii like my kids' taste in music for the most part. some of the new stuff isn't mine, but then again there should be some differences, I respect that. I mostly like jazz and classical these days, with occasional great rock thrown in, and r & b

Dorens - Alestorm is a band my daughter went to see not long ago and I loved what I heardm so she got me the cd, which I will play if I can get the bloody plastic wrapper off it.

10:00 pm

Of course everyone has their own taste, I just wanted to know what Hursh's are.

Not necessarily - Some music just evokes a physical reaction ..

10:34 pm

Jacula

Sh*t, Hursh, you sound like my stepdaughter. Thing is you are a lot older than she is. Life IS worth living and you should take pleasure in the small things which leads on to other stuff.

i take pleasure in the small things. it's just that they aren't... IN me... if that makes any sense. i enjoy them and then when they aren't there, i'm empty again.

yes, of a sort. it's my own fault, really, that i haven't got more life in me, i just don't put in the effort required. sometimes i think it's because i want to feel deeply and yet i don't at the same time cause i'm exhausted of it. so i keep things at bay. there's always a trade off.
