I always feel stupid about world affairs. I cannot understand why the incredible gift of peace is so often thrown away.

7:06 am

herinfernallady

On weekends i don't see the news

7:06 am

redturtlehead

I probably need to read more about Korea, I just dont see why they want to so alienate so many people....

7:07 am

periwinkle

is it Ata's birthday today?

7:07 am

sprite

I never see news. I can't, it makes me depressed beyond repair. I choose to try and make peace at home and hope it will have a tiny effect on the world.

7:07 am

mom2han8

what's the quote from "Moon for the Misbegotten"? Something about the past happening over and over again?? I will have to find it... but I think it about sums it up!

7:09 am

mom2han8

Here is the quote: "There is no present or future, only the past, happening over and over again, now."

7:09 am

redturtlehead

It is Atas birthday,and i do think peace at home helps...

7:09 am

"There is no present or future, only the past, happening over and over again, now."

7:29 am

sprite

lady, can't you lower your heating?

7:30 am

herinfernallady

Himself is rather ill

7:30 am

more blankets and less heating, and a bit of fresh air! Much better healing conditions.

7:31 am

Hi Katie

7:38 am

KatieMcG

Hi herin, sorry I couldn't chat on facebook the other day I was late for work

7:38 am

herinfernallady

Oh no thats ok

7:40 am

KatieMcG

hope himself feels better soon

7:41 am

herinfernallady

Thanks Katie he is ill and I am desperately trying to avoid it

7:41 am

KatieMcG

I think hubby is finally coming down with my cold having resisted it for a week

7:42 am

herinfernallady

i am drinking this horrid mix of stuff to stay better

7:43 am

sprite

wb katie, back myself too

7:44 am

herinfernallady

hey again

7:44 am

KatieMcG

HI sprite, how you doing?

7:45 am

sprite

over halfway, loving the endings from today's grid. How about you?

7:45 am

KatieMcG

having fun with grid but seriously thinking about going back to bed

7:46 am

sprite

bed is good. Aren't you feeling well or just needing more sleep?

7:47 am

KatieMcG

a bit of both, stayed at Mari's last night so didn't sleep as well as I would have at home and still got my rotten cold

7:47 am

sprite

my personal theory is: if it feels like bed is good, bed is good.

7:48 am

KatieMcG

that's a good theory :-)

7:49 am

sprite

only exception being for very depressed people, but you don't sound like one at all :)

7:50 am

herinfernallady

Bed is hassle avoidance theory

7:51 am

sprite

only for some, lady. I have needed to learn to go to bed when it feels like bed, in stead of forcing myself on and on.

7:52 am

herinfernallady

Isn't it nice of friends not asking how your b.f who happens to be their friend how well he is now

7:52 am

sprite

nope, not really

7:53 am

herinfernallady

This is why i don't have much to do with her any more

7:53 am

sprite

I can imagine

7:54 am

KatieMcG

good idea herin, I hate it when friends were not nice to hubby when we first met, I have nothing to do with one of them now even though her daughter is my Goddaughter

7:54 am

herinfernallady

This person introduced us to each other. I thought he was her friend

7:55 am

KatieMcG

people can be strange sometimes, see it as her loss not yours

7:55 am

sprite

luckily we can choose our friends

7:55 am

herinfernallady

YEs indeed I owe her nothing and she owes me nothing hence the not really worrying anymore

7:56 am

KatieMcG

I'm doubly lucky as I was blessed with a lovely family as well as good friends from choice

7:57 am

sprite

that is wonderful, Katie!

8:02 am

herinfernallady

Oh well sprite

8:03 am

KatieMcG

but that has gone so forgive yourself and get back on the healthy food :-)

8:03 am

KatieMcG

and it is better than eating a whole bag of salty things every day!

8:04 am

sprite

yeah... please remind me that this is still better than putting my finger in my throat. "That is not the solution, sprite!"

8:04 am

8:49 am

Scrabbler

Rain makes me glum too

8:50 am

Scrabbler

Any sw words?

8:50 am

periwinkle

Trifioso

GROSS

8:54 am

Haz1558

8:55 am

8:55 am

8:56 am

herinfernallady

Trifs is the car going to not stink again now that its gone?

8:56 am

Scrabbler

We will have a blast, moreso if the weather cooperates.

8:57 am

Haz1558

ty8 - combine an apprentice (alternative spelling) with a math term

8:57 am

Trifioso

yes, herin. that and a bottle of febreeze did the trick!

8:57 am

Scrabbler

That ty8 is an amino acid.

8:57 am

periwinkle

thanks Haz and Scrabs, new word for me

8:58 am

Haz1558

You're welcome.

8:58 am

herinfernallady

Febreeze has not managed to destink my coat

9:00 am

sprite

Hi Scrabs, how's work? Bearable?

9:00 am

herinfernallady

9:00 am

Anniebrook

welcome back, spritey

9:00 am

Trifioso

what kind of coat is it - fabric?

9:00 am

herinfernallady

IF you think skunk it would likely smell like that. ITs tainted boy BO stink

9:00 am

Trifioso

9:01 am

sprite

thanks Annie :)

9:01 am

sprite

and hi all

9:01 am

Trifioso

shake a ton of baking soda into a black garbage bag, put the coat in, and leave it for a couple of days.

9:01 am

Haz1558

Hello sprite.

9:01 am

Trifioso

tie the bag shut, of course

9:02 am

Scrabbler

Hi Sprite! It is bearable, because when I witness the daily drama and bad behavior, I know that I won't have to endure it after Sept 28th. It reconfirms my decision. On the other hand, I see families and hate the thought of not seeing them again, as my new office is 30 miles away and many parents will not choose to make that drive.

9:02 am

Scrabbler

Good idea, trif

9:02 am

Haz1558

And make sure that no cats are in the bag.

9:02 am

sprite

but those that really feel they need you, will make the drive, Scrabs. We're all rooting for you :)

9:02 am

Scrabbler

Haha, Hazel

9:02 am

sprite

lol Haz *shudders at thought*

9:03 am

Trifioso

scrabbler, you are so so so doing the right thing! you need to be in a place where you can practice without stress and distraction. the new environs will help you be a be a better doctor

9:03 am

Scrabbler

TY, Sprite. I have become so serene and relaxed now that I have made my decision.

9:03 am

Haz1558

Because letting the cat out of that particular bag might be interesting.

9:03 am

Boobear

9:03 am

Anniebrook

We should have a big party to celebrate Scrabbler's freedom on Sept. 28th

9:03 am

9:03 am

herinfernallady

9:04 am

9:04 am

Scrabbler

Richard said that in mid-July I may share the news with parents and staff. For now he wants me mum so as to avoid chaos. <---his word

9:04 am

sprite

lol... yeah sure, as if he doesn't revel in chaos.

9:05 am

NonoNanette

oops time to become nurse Nono and give hubby his meds. Be back in a bit

9:05 am

Scrabbler

Monday, Sept 28th is my last day unless he allows me to switch that day, at the beginning of the week.

9:05 am

sprite

bfn Nanette

9:06 am

Anniebrook

Free at last!

9:06 am

sprite

ok, let's be forward then and celebrate the 28th. Would that be ok for you, Scrabs, or rather the day after?

9:06 am

Trifioso

Bastille day for Scrabbler!!!

9:06 am

Scrabbler

I will certainly let everyone know the day of release. It might change.

9:07 am

periwinkle

what does the last 8 start with pls?

9:07 am

Scrabbler

I have been urging the youngest partner to escape too. The older one is totally brainwashed by him, as her husband is similar.

9:07 am

sprite

and Scrabs, be sure to check the icons every 1st of the month until then.

9:08 am

Haz1558

How many sh8 do you have, peri?

9:08 am

Scrabbler

Oh, Sprite, my curiosity has been piqued.

9:08 am

periwinkle

3 sh8 is what I have Haz

9:09 am

sprite

argh Scrabbler, a husband and a working partner like that, how awful.

getting more anxious about moving

9:11 am

redturtlehead

Peri when is the big day?

9:11 am

Haz1558

peri, I had an uncle and aunt who moved something like 26 times (to do with his job). My aunt used to joke that the movers got to know her by first name and she declared that it was the best thing for not storing clutter.

9:12 am

Scrabbler

Sprite, I tried to see your profile but my PC went bonkers--I'll try again later

9:12 am

Anniebrook

peri, You will be fine. Moving is stressful to say the least. It is fun to fix up a new place.

9:12 am

Scrabbler

Yes, Peri, it will be a fresh start.

9:12 am

Hi red...hope you feel better today

9:13 am

sprite

moving is stressful for almost everybody. But the new place will be good for you as you are now, for sure.

9:13 am

redturtlehead

er starting to.

9:14 am

Haz1558

A couple of nights before we moved house, I dreamt that my husband insisted that we should only take what we could fit into the boot of the car. Talk about being glad to waken up!

9:14 am

sprite

ouch Haz

9:14 am

Haz1558

Exactly!

9:15 am

Scrabbler

I see it now, Sprite, so I must figure out how to post pics of my bunnies.

9:15 am

72 Temple Owl

hi all!

9:15 am

Haz1558

Hello TO!

9:15 am

Anniebrook

Hi Owl!

9:15 am

redturtlehead

Hi TO.

9:16 am

sprite

ah that would be fun, Scrabs! But if you don't have the time or energy, just lean back and enjoy all the bunnies that will pop up to support you.

9:16 am

sprite

hey TOwl :)

9:16 am

Scrabbler

I still have a wheezy cough but not the nonstop cough of Monday-Wednesday. I started Symbicort Monday night and that has helped a lot.

9:16 am

Scrabbler

Hi Owl

9:16 am

redturtlehead

Glad you are getting better. I think to be honest I had something like Croup. LOL

9:17 am

72 Temple Owl

hi haz, annie, red, spritey, scrabs

9:17 am

Scrabbler

Do that sh8's all end with -ing?

9:17 am

Anniebrook

yes

9:17 am

redturtlehead

I had this wierd high pitched cough....but its going along better now, I am leary of using steroids.

9:17 am

Scrabbler

Me too, red--I felt it in my larynx + trachea, spasming.

9:18 am

NonoNanette

back, hi red and TO

9:18 am

redturtlehead

I guess LTB would be the appropriate dx.

9:18 am

Anniebrook

2 are gerund endings--the other 2 are gerund plurals

9:18 am

Scrabbler

Plurals, duh.

9:18 am

sprite

steroids are to be avoided... until you really need them. And then you should not hesitate to take them for the whole prescribed time.

9:19 am

Haz1558

Phone...

9:19 am

Scrabbler

Yes, red, exactly. I almost took some prednisone but decided to go with inhaled steroid + bronchodilator. It sure helped me. This has happened before, so I probably have mild asthma.

9:19 am

72 Temple Owl

scrabs, know anuything about wild bunnies?

9:21 am

Scrabbler

Yes, I adore them and fear for wild babies everywhere now. I stopped in the road Thursday evening to let a doe cross the road, waiting for other deer to follow, and there came a wobbly fawn.

9:21 am

redturtlehead

I have cold induced asthma, and I think with all your kid exposure Scrabbs, you probably needed something.

9:21 am

72 Temple Owl

scrabs i am sorry you are ill...you resp system seems to be your weak spot.

9:21 am

Trifioso

squeeee wobbly fawn!

9:22 am

redturtlehead

I love baby deers!

9:22 am

sprite

awwwww *melts*

9:22 am

Scrabbler

I have nasal allergies, so asthma is often part of that--a tendency for the entire respiratory tract to become inflamed.

9:23 am

72 Temple Owl

scrabs i never saw a bunny act like this one, just running to anf fro along the fence andleaping and pouncing

9:24 am

Scrabbler

The fawn crossed the road, but couldn't immediately jump the guard rail. It went along the shoulder of the road, parallel, to the guard rail, looking forlorn (that is when I almost pulled over to get out of the car and help it) then took a big leap and joined the concerned mama. It was SO sweet to witness, and I am glad the guy in the pick-up truck behind me was patient.

9:24 am

sprite

yay for the guy too

9:25 am

Scrabbler

Bunnies do that when they are happy. Miss Bea does crazy sprints all over down here when she is excited. And bunnies do "bronco flips"--mid air twists, leaps, ect.

9:25 am

Anniebrook

Scrabs...I am getting choked up. God bless all the animals of our planet..We have a lot to learn from them

9:25 am

sprite

ain't that the truth, Annie

9:25 am

Scrabbler

*going to living room to do crazy sprints and bronco flips*

9:26 am

9:27 am

72 Temple Owl

i would do bunny flips forde8 and the sewcond en7 ;)

9:27 am

Scrabbler

Then it was a very happy bunny, Owl. It cheers one up to watch, doesn't it? And I enjoy watching the squirrels and chipmunks in my yard.

9:27 am

Anniebrook

jane, more severe

9:27 am

harpjane

i once happened upon a moose and her calf swimming a river. The calf got stuck in a tree branch and the cow jumped back in the river and BODY SLAMMED THE TREE until the calf was free

9:28 am

72 Temple Owl

well i would have bveen more cheery if i knew what it was doing! HAD NEVER SEEN ONE DO THAT

anyone know how to get rid of it? the branch like root is sticking up right in the middle of my grandma's peonies. it was lovingly transplanted from PA, lucky us.

7:44 pm

you have to pull it out at the root

7:44 pm

redturtlehead

round up feather. or you can pull it and burn, but the smoke is dangerous.

7:44 pm

i tried yanking on it, couldn't pull it!

and don't burn it--sends the offending stuffin the air...

7:45 pm

i'm afraid to do round up for two reasons: first, it's right over our well cap. like, 2 feet away. second, i don't want to hurt the peony.

7:45 pm

lbdawger

soak the ground thoroughly, then pull, feather

7:45 pm

hurshy

i baked a potato, and then when i sliced it open, i put butter, salt, pepper, scallions, and mozz/provolone. then i shut it back up again for a few mins to melt the cheese and then sorta mushed it in and ate it.

7:45 pm

featherbee

it's RIGHT in the middle of the peony stems.

i'm apparently not that susceptible to it. have been getting very mild red spotty rashes on my arm every time i weed in there, but nothing else. goes away within hours. my poor mother, on the other hand, had to go to the walk in to get steroids after she helped me weed!
