5:10 am

Eva

bonjour Ruby. Comment ca va ce matin?

5:10 am

rubyfoo

bonjour to you, montreal

5:10 am

rubyfoo

are you totally bi-lingual?

5:10 am

montreal13

mais oui ma chÃ¨re !

5:11 am

rubyfoo

pas mal de tout. I've been planting moss (which my husband steals lol) on the rocks. It's a big job, but it surely softens the lok of new stones

5:11 am

rubyfoo

the garden is burgeoning!

5:11 am

rubyfoo

if he gets caught, I'll say I don't know who he is lol

5:12 am

montreal13

well, not burgeoning here quite yet..."sigh"

5:12 am

montreal13

are you fully bilingual ruby ?

5:12 am

rubyfoo

well burgeoning is a little strong, but there are a few open daffodils and snow drops (perce neige)

5:13 am

rubyfoo

my French is pretty good after 11 years here, but with a bad (NY) accent. Fortunately, everybody understands me and I can understand them

5:13 am

montreal13

it snowed again 2 days ago, not much but enough to whiten everything...again... and the nigths are really cold...

5:13 am

rubyfoo

and, although I can read, not novels or anything serious.

5:14 am

Eva

je vais essayer a dormir plus. A bientot.

5:14 am

montreal13

understanding each other, that's the whole point, isn't it ?

5:14 am

rubyfoo

they are predicting snow for the weekend and I hope the new stuff won't feeze. We've had heavy snows in April, occasionally, but the tulips are pretty tough

5:14 am

montreal13

bonne nuit Eva, sleep tight

5:14 am

rubyfoo

bon chance, eva

5:15 am

Atalante

bonjour bonjour!

5:15 am

Eva

merci

5:15 am

rubyfoo

yes, but I would like to have a better accent

5:15 am

rubyfoo

bonjour ata!!!

5:15 am

Atalante

fleurs dans le jardin ici: daffodils, mini daffodils, narcissus, scilla, hyacinths, tulips (just), snowdrops, crocus, hellebores, violets all over the lawn

5:15 am

montreal13

bonjour chÃ¨re Ata, comment vas-tu ?

5:15 am

rubyfoo

scilla! ty, I forgot the name but planted them two years ago

5:16 am

Atalante

je suis fatiguee. TrÃ¨s fatigue. Mais ca va. *yawn*

5:16 am

montreal13

halfway...

5:16 am

Atalante

what's the French for yawn?

5:16 am

Atalante

scillas are sooo pretty

5:16 am

montreal13

bailler

5:16 am

rubyfoo

they're up plus 3 crocus which I didn't plant on the graves of the two deceased pups! I think God planted them

5:17 am

Atalante

ah merci. I didn't know that. *writes it down*

5:17 am

rubyfoo

we also get a plant called ail d'ours, also on the graves, but it's a wild flower, beautiful but stinky

5:17 am

Atalante

wild garlic?

5:18 am

rubyfoo

and ata, my big project is planting moss on the rocks around the tulips. It's a lot of work but I love moss (mousse, mousson?)

5:18 am

montreal13

but of course, bailler = to yawn... "yawn" used the way you did would be "Je baille"...fyi..

5:18 am

macadam

Morning all.Can someone rescue me.mu4 has me stumped.

5:19 am

rubyfoo

yes, but not edible?

5:19 am

Atalante

ail d'ours would translate as bear garlic wouldn't it? if it's wild garlic, it's eminently edible!

5:19 am

rubyfoo

mixed dog, or plural with one less t

5:19 am

Atalante

wild garlic soup is beyond delicious, and I think you can use the leaves in many other things

5:19 am

montreal13

double consonant macadam

5:19 am

rubyfoo

and very pretty. I'll test it in my husband's salad hahah

5:20 am

5:22 am

Brookie

Bye macadam.

5:22 am

Brookie

Doesn't look like this grid will take up too much of my day...

5:22 am

Atalante

yes, that's the stuff. little white clustered flowers, smells of garlic. http://www.woodlands.co.uk/blog/plants
-flowers/wild-garlic-recipes/

5:22 am

rubyfoo

bye* typing is poopy this am, too distracted

5:23 am

montreal13

how's the weather in your area Lady ?

5:23 am

Atalante

ahhh that's interesting. that's where the "ours" comes from - the latin name for wild garlic is Allium ursinum

5:23 am

rubyfoo

still doing tax paperwork (or SHOULD be doing)

5:23 am

herinfernallady

Warm and freezing in the AM very ood

5:24 am

Brookie

ruby, I finally set an appointment w/my tax person for April 1st... nothing like waiting till the last moment to file taxes!

5:24 am

montreal13

odd as well her: nights below 0C and days warming to +10...

5:24 am

herinfernallady

brrrr

5:24 am

Brookie

Is it unusual for it to be freezing in the am, herin?

5:24 am

montreal13

here we have till april 30th for our taxes...

5:25 am

herinfernallady

Yes It is Autumn

5:25 am

rubyfoo

that is surprising weather, herin

5:25 am

rubyfoo

nice for sleeping

5:25 am

Brookie

Fortunately my taxes will bemore straightforward this year than past years

5:26 am

herinfernallady

Yes and no

5:26 am

montreal13

why is that Brookie ?

5:26 am

rubyfoo

I sent it all to our US accountant, but, of course, what I sent wasn't complete....so searching for missing papers etc. And then I had to deal with the French tax authority - got a bill from them but was able to provide enough of last year's stuff so they "forgave" the bill.

5:26 am

Brookie

In past years I had my own business, gave birth to a child, or got a divorce.

5:27 am

rubyfoo

my son says that having his own business makes his taxes a difficult mess

5:27 am

Brookie

Ruby, it's great they were able to "forgive" the bill!

5:27 am

Brookie

Having a business makes taxes difficult, but there can be tons of write offs.

5:28 am

montreal13

ahhh that WOULD make this year more straightforward indeed...

5:28 am

rubyfoo

we aren't supposed to pay twice because of the tax treaty, but it's not so easy to go and talk to them because NOBODY speaks English. Fortunately, a few years ago, I gave this same tax lady a jar of homemade jam. She remembered!

5:28 am

Brookie

But I do have a lot of business mileage to calculate and write off... but it will be worth it.

5:29 am

Brookie

It's amazing what food goodies will do for goodwill, ruby!

5:29 am

Brookie

That was very smart of you.l

5:29 am

montreal13

good move Ruby !

5:30 am

rubyfoo

The jam and jelly thing here is a hoot! Everybody makes it and brings it as a little cadeau. I really wasn't trying to be smart, but she was very helpful one year when I understood even less French

5:30 am

rubyfoo

the profile in your icon, montreal, looks a lot like Ruby

5:31 am

montreal13

french is easy: i spoke it when I was barely 1-year old !!!

5:31 am

Brookie

So it's commonplace there? Does that mean it behooves a starving person to become a tax authority so they can be fed often?

5:31 am

herinfernallady

Excuse me for being noisy but Ruby why do you not return to the states?

5:31 am

rubyfoo

not so easy for me, but getting better all the time. After all, today I learned "bailler"!!!!

5:32 am

Brookie

I majored in French in college and lived in Paris for months... a great time in my life.

5:32 am

montreal13

lol ruby...

5:32 am

Atalante

oh Ruby, there's a lovely blog you should read - let me find it

5:32 am

rubyfoo

retired here, Herin, and I have the house (in my name), the garden I've designed and which is now mature, and, of course, my two dogs. I couldn't afford to move back.

5:32 am

Brookie

But I didn't know about the "cadeau" thing.

5:32 am

Brookie

sounds like your retirement is lovely, ruby.

5:32 am

herinfernallady

Fair Enough Ruby. I dind't mean to be noisy

5:32 am

rubyfoo

And the idea of moving in with my son and his wife is not appealing!!!!!!

5:33 am

montreal13

you seem well adapted to your "new" environment ruby !

5:33 am

rubyfoo

no, I would never find you nosy, Herin, I do so much whining and complaining, that any question is fair!

5:33 am

Atalante

http://french-word-a-day.typepad.com/m
otdujour/ - it's an interesting blog, and very god for learnign strange french words / regionalisms / stuff

5:34 am

rubyfoo

when I was married to my first husband, a 16th C. French historiographer, we spent a lot of time in France

5:35 am

rubyfoo

I always loved it but didn't know this region although we travelled a lot. We very lucky to stumble on this place, just before the dollar dropped and housees here became very scarce!

5:35 am

montreal13

7:06 am

Anniebrook

good for you ruby

7:07 am

Trifioso

the hardest part was standing in front of the judge together, and she kept asking questions like "do you understand this document you signed" or "do you agree to what is written" and of course we had to say "I do" and it shook me, having to stand up with R and say those words, but in a MUCH different context than the last time we said them together, to an authority.

7:09 am

periwinkle

I need 4s, 3 f and 1 d

7:09 am

Trifioso

sorry -- didn't mean to kill the chog.

7:09 am

Anniebrook

Trif I can imagine how you felt

7:10 am

7:10 am

periwinkle

7:10 am

Trifioso

7:10 am

Trifioso

thanks guys

7:10 am

periwinkle

7:11 am

rubyfoo

7:11 am

7:15 am

rubyfoo

3!!!

7:15 am

Trifioso

the worst part is not getting to hang out with the diff groups in the chog, as when I finish one all in one sitting, I have to go do other things, like my job and the housework - DREAD!

7:16 am

rubyfoo

I agree and we miss our friends

7:16 am

rubyfoo

hello wildcat

7:16 am

redturtlehead

yes, I suppose its a good thing because I need to do txes today....

7:16 am

Trifioso

I got through it, wildcat, but I will freely admit that I will NEVER understand how the court sees things. the four of us will now be living on less than 30% of what we used to. That whole "oh the wife gets half" thing is a HUGE lie

7:17 am

wildcat17

so sorry

7:17 am

periwinkle

I have 3 fi and 3 fr

7:17 am

rubyfoo

when I left my first husband, he used to give me $25/week - can you imagine.

7:18 am

rubyfoo

I only have 2 fr, fr5/16 and 18

7:18 am

Trifioso

which of course, means that mr. hate will enjoy living alone, on 67% of his current salary. Fun fact - in the first four months of living in his new house, he spent $16,000 in cash, fixing it up. fun!

7:18 am

rubyfoo

and 3 fi 4/7, 5/16 and 5/18

7:19 am

periwinkle

another fr5/16

7:19 am

wildcat17

it doesn't seem right, does it? but life goes on ... and that means I actually have to work. cya later

7:19 am

rubyfoo

is mr. hate related to my two mr. nasty's?

7:19 am

Trifioso

spell your fr5 wrong, rubi

7:19 am

Trifioso

I think they must be related, ruby...but hey, the court says it's fine, so why should they think different?

7:20 am

rubyfoo

yay, for the other fr

7:20 am

rubyfoo

now just missing one f and one d!

7:20 am

11:05 am

jmcnrick

or you just got tired of it all?

11:05 am

Vicuna

"pre-quit"? Does that mean you're still employed but you've stopped working?

11:06 am

jmcnrick

my niece may be looking for a roommate

11:06 am

pippingeek

i would have liked more, but tourist season is kind of a joke so i might as well move now rather than later, and i have around $15k

11:21 am

There. That's me done. Need any more clues, jmc?

11:25 am

"playing hooky." Feather, I don't think that word means what you think it means. Playing hooky means NOT cleaning. Sheesh.

Go, pippingeek, go!

today, bugs! didn't teach, but helped kids with their research papers. Being there only once a week, I am perplexed how some are nearly done and others don't even have a single notecard! (due date is Tuesday)

6:47 pm

do you have the st?

6:48 pm

stidmama

there is a de 4

6:48 pm

The ones that have not started are the ones who either don't care because they think they will pass anyway, or the ones that don't have a clue about how to begin.

6:49 pm

herinfernallady

Could resist a hello

6:49 pm

stidmama

the latter, I think -- one child who was completely lost seemed to perk up when I pulled a few books and pointed to the specific couple paragraphs that seemed to address her interest.

I am not surprised. I sometimes ask them what questions they have about the topic and then, as they search for the answers, all kinds of research is done

6:51 pm

jmcnrick

lol herin

6:51 pm

jmcnrick

is there an RO?

6:51 pm

stidmama

I think many of them didn't follow the directions to make some notecards; then outline; THEN write a draft. They seem to think that a "good" writer sits down and just writes perfectly first time.

6:52 pm

Bugsaw

I won't say HI to you either then herein. ;)

6:52 pm

kids in Grade 10 still think that!

herinfernallady

Stidy did you see JIlli?

6:53 pm

jmcnrick

but yes what?

6:53 pm

stidmama

grad students still think that too, bugs ... and only if they know the topic very very well jmc. I can write stories first time that don't need revisions, but anything about microbiology needs a lot of back and forth.

6:53 pm

yes lady. See my icon?

8:00 pm

Nef

Jessa, I think ruru's comment is even funnier (esp. from a guy)

8:01 pm

rururocks

I thought the "little ones are done too quick" was even funnier

8:01 pm

rururocks

LOL

8:01 pm

crosshair

howdy everyone

8:01 pm

JessasMom

true that, i thought they all thought bigger was better....in all things in life

8:01 pm

rururocks

hi crossy..

8:01 pm

Nef

it's a good line too, ruru

8:04 pm

JessasMom

gosh, i hate for someone to come in now and read my comment...it was very innocently made...<bats eyelashes>

8:04 pm

crosshair

lol,you could have something the size of a baseball bat hanging there,but it wont do you any good if your idea of foreplay is "hold on to the headboard and brace yourself darlin!" lol

8:04 pm

Nef

Dang! I *have* to clean off my desk one of these days! I just had a paper avalanche from one level to the keyboard to the floor!

8:05 pm

8:07 pm

crosshair

oh that lol

8:07 pm

rururocks

I use a flame thrower on mine nef.. works well

8:07 pm

Nef

yep. that's what frightened me

8:09 pm

Nef

ruru, it seems I stack papers on top of camera, computer wires (which one works on which camera, for gosh sake!?) a dog brush and ink cartridges! For some reason, all of that doesn't balance well

8:10 pm

JessasMom

*gasp* A flamethrower? These two topic of conversations *do not* mix well, LOL

8:10 pm

crosshair

lol,my desk is also a vortex,everything ends up here

8:11 pm

8:13 pm

Nef

oh, the shredder is right behind me, as is the recycling bag. The problem is what is ON my desk doesn't seem to have a home yet. THEREFORE, the "house" thinks it belongs on my desk

8:13 pm

Nef

YAY, Met! WTG!!!

8:16 pm

Nef

ruru, are you intending to say things with dble meanings; or am I tired enough to be thinking wrong?

8:20 pm

Nef

I think he left as soon as he posted

8:22 pm

rururocks

I like smaller grids sometimes.. I can get other things done during the day...

8:24 pm

redturtlehead

8:24 pm

redturtlehead

Awww, Goldens are never ugly.

8:25 pm

rururocks

8:25 pm

Nef

8:26 pm

rururocks

My Monty went through the same phase.. and he was a gorgeous gorgeous dog

8:26 pm

redturtlehead

I always thought leprechausn were a bit creepy.

8:26 pm

Nef

I do love your icon pic tonight, ruru. To me, that looks like an adolescent golden in that pic.

8:26 pm

redturtlehead

I still have no beief that a golden can truely be ugly, like a chihuahua can be....

8:27 pm

rururocks

Lepercauns are creepy.. leprecauns are vertically challenged individuals

8:27 pm

redturtlehead

alright, have to actually go to bed work in the morning and not looking forward to it....

8:28 pm

rururocks

aww.. too bad.. night red.

8:28 pm

8:28 pm

Nef

FAITHA

9:35 pm

72 Temple Owl

the link is at the bottom of this page - "lickety's babble clues"

9:35 pm

FAITHA

what do you mean the last 8 are elusive? is there a way to know how many words there are possible?

9:36 pm

72 Temple Owl

oh yes! sorry, i forgot guests don't see the word count. only 44 today

9:37 pm

FAITHA

and I don't find the clue link either

9:38 pm

72 Temple Owl

9:40 pm

FAITHA

9:40 pm

nrkii

9:42 pm

FAITHA

9:43 pm

FAITHA

9:44 pm

72 Temple Owl

faith, glad to see you. stop by any time

9:44 pm

9:44 pm

nrkii

choco mousse needs to go with sweet libations

9:44 pm

nrkii

blue moon wheat is a bad idea

9:45 pm

nrkii

but a nice cognac, a sherry, or kahlua... those would work

9:45 pm

72 Temple Owl

9:46 pm

watching the weather channel -- not sure why. looks like really bad storms back east

11:01 pm

stidmama

it's raining here too, but just rain. nothing severe or worrisome

11:01 pm

pippingeek

stid, moving to nyc, was planning to go in june but decided i hate everyhing here including job drama and not enough money to make it worth it

11:01 pm

pippingeek

lots and lots of rain here, was hard to drive home

11:02 pm

pippingeek

couldn't go over 35 mph for a while it was coming down so hard

11:04 pm

stidmama

well, I hope that nyc is better. sorry you are getting caught in the rain roo. I have been in Florida during heavy rains -- not fun.

11:07 pm

DR1965

I met someone yesterday from Rockport maryland and he was talking about snow. so me being the native San Diegan said... " What is snow?"

11:08 pm

DR1965

I was glad he had a sense of humor

11:08 pm

stidmama

silly DR!

11:09 pm

gremlinn

I'm another native San Diegan.

11:13 pm

stidmama

I was born in Los Angeles county... but "lived" there only 6 months. I was the fourth generation born there on one side of the family. My boys were born here in Washington though

11:15 pm

DR1965

I think I knew that Gremlinn

11:16 pm

DR1965

Didnt you go to school in Bonita or something or was that someone else

11:18 pm

gremlinn

Wasn't me

11:19 pm

stidmama

okay, watching a torchwood DVD with Tom, will be highly distracted.

11:20 pm

PAV3

..and I'm sharing my Rainbow fat free sherbet with the poopies...

11:22 pm

stidmama

11:22 pm

PAV3

does anyone need aclue for a word in the grid?

11:22 pm

stidmama

finished earlier, thanks

11:24 pm

PAV3

so, aside from the male actors appearing on the show, what is special about Torchwood, or am I confusing it with Dr. Who?

11:24 pm

stidmama

well, "Jack Harkness" is of course HAWT. But the stories are engaging for folks who like sci-fi. It's a Dr Who spinoff

11:27 pm

stidmama

it's raining really hard here... *sigh*

11:28 pm

PAV3

I feel sad for stid...summer's almost here!

11:29 pm
