Jellen
We hope to go home tomorrow, flosey...
12:38 am
flosey
won't that be wonderful
12:38 am

I find this grid relatively straightforward, but then, on the other hand, I only have 34 words so far
12:40 am
Jellen
I found a melanoma chat room tonight...been there for over an hour...
12:41 am

Jellen, I have 54 words in 40 minutes, if you can take anything from that
12:42 am

I think I shall wait to see what tomorrow brings...grids tend to wake my mind up, not settle it down...
12:43 am
flosey
may see you tomorrow then
12:43 am

I don't know if it makes a difference, Jellen, but cure isn't in this grid, only as a phantom

joshuavorbis
hello from a little town called alpine, texas
1:07 am
jillibus
how little?
1:07 am
joshuavorbis
i think something like 4000 people. big enough to have internet but not much more than that
1:08 am
jillibus
so why are you there?
1:09 am
joshuavorbis
a friend of mine told me to see marfa, texas but the 2 motels in that town were way too expensive so i'm 20 miles down the road
1:09 am
jillibus
nbt, thanks to the volcano which had been hiding
1:10 am
jillibus
what's the attraction in marfa?
1:10 am
Douglas
Have you heard of the Marfa lights, josh?
1:10 am
joshuavorbis
a couple of things, incidentally. it's sort of like a living edward hopper painting due to all the minimalist artists and designers who have moved into town
1:10 am
joshuavorbis
and also there is the marfa mystery lights, alluded to by douglas just now
1:11 am
joshuavorbis
i could not see them tonight but they are supposed to be strange
1:11 am
jillibus
ah, I seem to remember something about the lights.
1:13 am

1:15 am

thanks anike, have a way to go yet
1:15 am

1:16 am
joshuavorbis
phant urethane
1:17 am
jillibus
I just got here and have none, but never look for the long words right away -- I like to grow them out of shorter words if possible. Doesn't mean I wouldn't enjoy a clue, though.
1:17 am
anike
7's are an, ce, cr, de, re x 3, ru, un and ur
1:17 am
joshuavorbis
oops, there's a ur7 that is a lot like the phantom i just mentioned
1:18 am
flosey
thanks anike
1:18 am
jillibus
thanks, anike, but Lickety tells us that.
1:20 am
anike
OK, sorry. If lickety is there then I'll say farewell. See you tomorrow. Happy babbling
1:21 am

Thanks anyway, anike, and have a good day!

so many changes in the last few months i havent really had time to settle in to babble life again
2:29 am
sprite
cool icon, flosey
2:29 am
flosey
thanks sprite
2:29 am
sprite
well you're here now :) How are you atm?
2:29 am
GroovyKiwi
well i have a new job
2:30 am
GroovyKiwi
and im going through a custody battle with my mother of all people over my younger son who is currently living with my ex who doesnt want him anymore
2:30 am
sprite
let's hear it!
2:31 am
GroovyKiwi
im now group compliance manager (thats all things quality, environmental, health and safety) for a company who facilitates maintenance for local government low socio-nomic housing
2:31 am
sprite
omg that is pretty intense :( How come your mother changed sides?
2:31 am
GroovyKiwi
i manage the local branch and also have control over a branch in the south island so have to spend at least 2-3 days a month away from home
2:31 am
flosey
oh my Kiwi, doesn't that put your son in a tough situation
2:32 am
sprite
sounds like a great job for you
2:32 am
GroovyKiwi
oh he wants it flosey but i dont= my mother has been threatening it for the last year and now she has my ex on her side she thinks she can do it but i go to court tomorrow to plead with the judge to let him come back to me
2:33 am
flosey
hope the judge will listen to you Kiwi
2:33 am
GroovyKiwi
i guess ill find out tomorrow
2:33 am
Andree
the judge will give him to you , thats the right thing to do
2:34 am
GroovyKiwi
on the plus side im still with the same man (jas) and i think i told you all last time i was around that my eldest son kieran and i are living with him now
2:34 am
sprite
very stressful. Your son will be heard too by the judge?
2:35 am
sprite
that is beautiful, Kiwi. At least your jas is a good one :)
2:35 am
GroovyKiwi
the court has appointed him his own lawyer being as that he is 14 this weekend - i dont even know if i will see him on his birthday - i havent heard from him in two weeks
2:35 am
flosey
ah, so it would seem that you have the law on your side Kiwi
2:36 am
sprite
must be very hard on your son, this whole mess. Being rejected by dad is a cruel blow, and then grandma and ma fighting over him... he must feel rotten.
2:37 am
GroovyKiwi
oh no he thinks that living with nan will be the best thing to happen to him so the report from his lawyer says - all these promises of material things and freedom....
2:37 am
flosey
but don't you think the judge will see through at these promises
2:38 am
Andree
what is your mother thinking of, a child should be with his mum
2:38 am
sprite
yeah the easy way out... but with you he will get some more structure and stability, and that is much more important. Will keep my fingers crossed, Kiwi.
2:38 am
GroovyKiwi
i am hopefull but at 14 sometimes the court decides in favour of the childs wishes but i do have some big guns to pull out if need be on how bad my mum has been in the past - the not so legal things she does now and what life was like living in a house where the stepfather is an alchololic
2:39 am
sprite
that is pretty serious stuff. Sounds like any thinking judge should rule in your favour.
2:39 am
jillibus
holy mackerel -- I went away for a minute and look what happened! Hi kiwi! Hi sprite!
2:39 am
Andree
i agree sprite
2:40 am
flosey
is the stepfather still there Kiwi?
2:40 am
sprite
hiya jilli :) Love your troll :)
2:40 am
GroovyKiwi
hey jilli
2:40 am
GroovyKiwi
oh yeah my step dad is still there and the fights and arguments still happen
2:41 am
jillibus
thanks, sprite! I almost picked yours -- isn't it revolting!
2:41 am
flosey
doesn't sound like a good situation for your son to go into
2:41 am
sprite
yeah lol it is. It is a Rien Poortvliet drawing from his book about kabouters... not sure if there is a good english word for it.
2:42 am
jillibus
Well, a Dutch artist entitles you to have it, lol!
2:42 am
sprite
I thought so too!
2:43 am
jillibus
Kiwi, I'm sorry you're having such troubles -- you've had enough! But that kid must be so confused, going through being 14 as well as all the other disruptions.
2:43 am
GroovyKiwi
my mother is brainwashing him thats all there is too it

i have a 14 year old grandaughter so know how open to suggestion they are at that age
2:45 am
jillibus
Thanks, sprite!
2:45 am
sprite
if you don't mind me saying so, Kiwi, I think your mother is being incredibly selfish in this matter. She should support you in giving your sons as much peace and stability as possible. Not adding to the troubles.
2:46 am
GroovyKiwi
my mother cant stand the fact that i am not under her control anymore and decided that enough was enough last year and told her so
2:47 am
GroovyKiwi
i could show you the mountain of txts ive received over the last 7 months threatening me for being an unfit mother yada yada
2:47 am
sprite
ah man! Revenge, over the back of your son? That is the most selfish thing in existance. Good for you to have broken loose from that, Kiwi. I hope that the judge will see through her right away.
2:48 am
GroovyKiwi
i even got a text from her last week saying she was taking logan to samoa on holiday in september and if i didnt like it to get a lawyer because i couldnt stop her
2:48 am
jillibus
Well, I've run out of steam -- 100/39 so it's off to bed I go -- goodnight/evening/morning all and *poof*
2:48 am

Ruby, I just was in Merton for a few days. Thought about you. Never on at this time at home. Lovely visit.
3:57 am
rubyfoo
hello, joansie!
3:58 am
rubyfoo
just been to Geneva and back to the dentist
3:58 am
joansiebone
Sprite was here earlier. I am now at the Amsterdam airport. Missed sending her a greeting.
3:58 am
rubyfoo
it's not far, but tiring anyway!
3:58 am
joansiebone
But a dentist!!!!!
3:58 am
rubyfoo
are you buying bulbs and seeds? I think it's one of the best garden stores in the world!
3:59 am
joansiebone
Just have carry ons and I filled the spaces with French cheese.
3:59 am
rubyfoo
how bad is that? lol
4:00 am
rubyfoo
will they stop you at customs?
4:00 am
joansiebone
No, the US allows cheeses, but no meat or fresh produce
4:02 am
joansiebone
bought 500 gm of Morbier (sp)
4:02 am
rubyfoo
I think they ask if it's pasteurized, so just say "Of course!"
4:02 am
MonkeyGames
Hi, just on for a sec, but what fun to see that you're here-- I'm at work in downtown Amsterdam.
4:02 am
rubyfoo
love Morbier!
4:02 am
joansiebone
Good advice
4:02 am
MonkeyGames
Is there a covering like wax or cloth on the cheese? Then it's always allowed.
4:03 am
rubyfoo
I spent part of the weekend"in " Holland, via the Tour de France. It was fascinating to see all the wind farms along the route to Belgium from Rotterdam
4:03 am
MonkeyGames
We do get a LOT of wind.
4:03 am
joansiebone
I've taken cheese thru other times just wrapped in the supermarket saran.
4:04 am
rubyfoo
it was a very interesting route
4:04 am
joansiebone
Oh, Monkey you are in these parts. Waving in the distance!
4:04 am
rubyfoo
I've had very few problems with US customs, but when they get nasty, they are awful!
4:05 am
rubyfoo
I've seen them give people carrying an apple a really hard time
4:05 am
MonkeyGames
If I drop out of chat without warning (aside from this warning, of ocurse) it's because I'm at work and stuff happens here sometimes, like visitors arrive.
4:05 am
MonkeyGames
Waving back!
4:05 am
joansiebone
I peeled an orange at the checkpoint and presented
4:06 am
joansiebone
hawaii on the way to the mainland
4:06 am

dofith
How old's the kid?
8:27 am
herinfernallady
15
8:27 am
herinfernallady
and she is letting him smoke. Seriously If that was my kid my foot would be up his ass and the milk bar that sells him smokes would be told
8:28 am
dofith
Sounds like he's got Mummy right where he wants her!
8:29 am
dofith
Mind you, she's lost the battle already - years ago.
8:29 am
dofith
Too late to start any discipline now
8:31 am

I am so excited...Yesterday, I finally understood how to put page numbers in my book manuscript in OpenOffice writer, and I am that much closer to publiishing the book. It's taken more than a year to write. I almost gave up on it more than once.

that is normaly a term of endearment
9:15 am
Angelsong
it nearly drove me up a wall, Scrabbs. I was reading manuals for open office writer online, and all of them seemed to say something different. Then I found a tutorial on how to create a simple template, which I did successfully. So, I decided to create my own template for the book, and started creating page styles and paragraph styles for it and just played with it for a while. I finally realized I was making things much more difficult than they had to be. my template for the book was a mere six page styles, and I added a couple more as I worked on it. Manual page breaks help a lot. All of a sudden, I looked at my document, and found the page numbers were present where they were supposed to be, and they were not on pages that were not set up for them. I almost couldnt believe it.
9:15 am
Scrabbler
Haha, Owl. How hot is it your way? we will have another 90 degree day here
9:16 am
Scrabbler
So it happened by accident, Angel?
9:16 am
72 Temple Owl
well in nyc metro are qill be 98. and the air does not work well here, got about 6 hours sleep.
9:17 am
72 Temple Owl
running up and down to find cooler spot bedroom or living room

It cools down here in the woods so during the night I needed a blanket.

9:17 am
Angelsong
in a manner of speaking, yes. Writer insists "pages" do not exist until the document is printed...but it does have page styles. Never again will I work on a large document without styles.
9:18 am
72 Temple Owl
well i am here to be near father who is in hospital and while i want to go home i am worried about him in heat. this is the typed of home that heats like an oven
9:18 am
Scrabbler
What happened with your father, Owl?
9:19 am
72 Temple Owl
hurt his back. then not quite sure. troubles with meds, he slept from 10 to 2 the nedxt day missing meds & food
9:19 am
72 Temple Owl
groggy and in pain and the heat
9:19 am
Scrabbler
Uh, oh. Is he OK on his own?
9:20 am
72 Temple Owl
if not for the back pain i think so. he had a nice medication sheet with times for the pain meds.
9:20 am
Scrabbler
Poor guy.
9:21 am
72 Temple Owl
and he said "i didn't take an overdose you know" !
9:21 am
72 Temple Owl
then atiral fib had heart racing perhaps due to pain
9:21 am

I need to assemble a picnic table here on my back deck and I should start before it's too hot, shouldn't I?

Hi babblers! :) Happy Tuesday!

hi cath.
9:22 am
Scrabbler
Hi Cathy--haven't seen you here in a LONG time. How is Buster?
9:22 am
72 Temple Owl
and at hospital they had him in isolation. seems when he was sick last year it was MRSA
9:23 am
daykat
MRSA? Owl whats that?
9:23 am
Cathyar
Buster is great! Thanks Scrab! He's almost 5 but still acts like a puppy! LOL
9:23 am
Scrabbler
MRSA is so widespread now. I see a few cases each week--kids with boils + abscesses.
9:24 am
EvaNadine
hello babblers!
9:24 am
Scrabbler
My neighbor just got a Lhasa Apso--named Buddy--and although there are trees between our yards I hear them talking to him. "Go potty, Buddy."
9:24 am
Cathyar
I haven't had a lot of time to Babble. :( It makes me procrastinate more than facebook does! LOL!!! But I'm anxious to see the new layout when it finally arrives!
9:24 am
72 Temple Owl
LOL. as if
9:24 am
Scrabbler
Me too--expecting it anyday.
9:25 am
72 Temple Owl
ok time to head out to hospital. happy babbling
9:25 am
Scrabbler
MRSA = methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus--strain of Staph not killed by a penicillin.
9:25 am
Scrabbler
Good luck with your father, Owl. Which hospital?
9:26 am
Cathyar
LOL Scrab...as Buster has grown, he appears to be a bit big to be Shih-Tsu, so the vet now thinks he's not purebred and has a bit of Lhasa in him. :S Didn't get papers when we bought him so we are not sure.
9:26 am
daykat
Thanks Scrab - horrible - my brother has long term spinal injury and has just been told he has a Urinary tract infection which is antibiotic resistant and the docs cant do anything for him - could kill him!
9:27 am
Cathyar
ummm....may I ask for a clue for the an7 please?
9:27 am
Scrabbler
I am hearing it now: "Come on, Buddy, go potty." Sometimes I hear that for 20 minutes before the lady says, "Good boy, you went potty."
9:27 am
72 Temple Owl
holy name
9:27 am
Cathyar
daycat...that's awful...so sorry! :(
9:27 am

9:27 am

daykat, it is probably VRE--vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus.
9:28 am

OK, Owl. I have a med school classmate at St Barnabas, but that is south.

Scrabbler
I don't have an7 yet
9:28 am
daykat
thanks Cathy , and Scrabbler. He's had a high level spinal injury for 30 yeasr so we are all lucky to have him live so long I guess, he's more than exceeded his life expectancy
9:29 am

st barnabas is in one of the cities- newrak or patterson i think
9:29 am

Wow, daykat, he has defied the odds!

he has indeed - he is amazing - works full time, has two gorgeous daughters, happy marriage

Wow, daykat--inspiring!!

wormwood can be danergous no?
9:46 am
Sadistyx
when eaten or drank in a elixer, but no reports of getting hurt from the smoke
9:46 am
herinfernallady
Yes
9:47 am
herinfernallady
It is a toxin
9:47 am
Sadistyx
it is why absinthe is illegal in the US
9:47 am
herinfernallady
And further more isn't that like saying Alchole is ok smoked not drunk it is still a toxin

It is banned in the states because they drink Bud which tastes like cat piss so that really isn't a comparison

looking
10:56 am
herinfernallady
I don't know I like white
10:57 am
dcseain
yeah, not ideal, but much better for my eyes compared to the blue
10:57 am
herinfernallady
prefer white it is easier to see
10:57 am
dcseain
i'm hoping he goes with the option to choose
10:57 am
herinfernallady
As in the way it is now Is fine
10:57 am
FMitch
It is a tad bright as a background isn't it.
10:58 am
Nancy Boy
Isn't blue light kinda bad for your eyes? I forget.
10:58 am
dcseain
yes, though looking here, it looks like he took the current green behind the tiles and expanded it, no?
10:58 am
dcseain
i just found that shade of blue painful to look at.

11:00 am
herinfernallady
I like the colour scheme that we have now.
11:01 am
FMitch
yes, a white background is simple and I wonder if Dr_G has taken into account those Babblers that play with eye issues?
11:01 am
herinfernallady
I also like the current lay out. It is not busy

THankyou Haz, I could remember the correct medial term.
11:05 am

how old is the cat?
11:06 am
herinfernallady
the green makes me want to vomit.
11:06 am
Haz1558
I can imagine that you're pretty stressed, peri.
11:07 am
herinfernallady
The cat seems rather put out.
11:07 am
Nancy Boy
For MD, the kind of light computer screens emit is bad anyway
11:07 am
periwinkle
very stressed. I do not know what to do. there is no place to confine her. was thinking of buying a cage and keeping it upstairs in my room but not sure that this will fly
11:07 am
Nancy Boy
Sorry to hear that, Peri :(
11:07 am
Haz1558
Did you ever get a proper diagnosis on what is going on with the cat, peri?
11:07 am
dcseain
NB, do you refer to CRTs?
11:08 am
Haz1558
I mean, is it behavioural, is it a physical problem? I thought you had been having some success with other treatment, has that now stopped?
11:08 am
periwinkle
vet says she has a UTI, put her on Baytril which she would not take. I started her on a homeopathic remedy and she has been on it for two weeks. seems to help with peeing outside the box
11:08 am
Nancy Boy
Possibly, Seain. What I just said is pretty much the extent of what I either know, think I know, or have heard ;)
11:08 am
Haz1558
But not with the pooping...
11:08 am
periwinkle
I am thinking it is behavioral but not absolutely sure.
11:09 am

I was out for a bit and got home before any9one else and found a "present" right at the entrance to the living room *sigh*
11:10 am

I have to confess complete ignorance of cats and their ways, but I hope you can find someone professional to talk to who can offer some help.
11:10 am

may take her back to the doctor who only deals with cats
11:10 am
FMitch
ditto what Haz says and I feel for you peri!
11:10 am
herinfernallady
Peri. To start with. Cat box has to be super clean. The UTI will be making it very uncomfortable for her to wizz in the box. The kitty needs to take her pills.
11:11 am
periwinkle
I clean out the box twice a day.
11:11 am
Haz1558
Yes, or even see if there is any internet forum to give you advice.
11:11 am

ok, bbl
11:11 am

Ha are you done with the grid, I found it a good one today, esp the alt sp of my fav hedgehog.
11:11 am
Haz1558
See you, peri. Hang in there!
11:12 am
herinfernallady
And the cat has to be in a non stressed environment. Don't flip out when she pees on the rug. Best advice is when you go out give her some treats in the bathroom put her dirt box in there and make it comfy
11:12 am
Haz1558
I know, I thought of you when I saw the spiky one again.
11:12 am

Also don't use ammonia / bleach based products they smell of cat wizz.

Desperate pawing and thumping on a door. Turns out one of them closed the bathroom door were the litter trays are. Lucius needed to pee NOW and he woke me up

Haz1558
Thanks, caitlyn.
11:40 am
Haz1558
Ah, but Dr-G wants to change ok to fantastic.
11:40 am
FMitch
JAmie deided it was time to fiddle with Babble.
11:41 am
caitlyn
I saw it on FB but not sure if we all have the change (Having an elderly moment)
11:41 am
m9f9l
no..she is the cat of my 14 yo daughter!LOL
11:41 am
Haz1558
I think it's hard to judge until after you have a go at the new site and see what it's like to play the game.
11:42 am
caitlyn
When is it supposed to change?
11:42 am
FMitch
I can tell you are still traumatised Haz as you didn't use the underscore for Dr G
11:42 am
caitlyn
Whats wrong Haz?
11:43 am
FMitch
We don't know cait - I would hope that Dr_G would beta test the site firest.
11:43 am
FMitch
*first even!
11:44 am
m9f9l
and this is the 4yo with his dog (last year when son was 3..dog was not quite 1) http://tinyurl.com/259lbeu

Talking of first - tenuous link - nice grid today.
11:45 am
caitlyn
Yes it is FM yesterdays was a stinker
11:45 am
Haz1558
It is, not too long, normal words, the odd strange one, and not a hair tearer.
11:45 am
FMitch
and on that note I am going to poof as I am hungry. Happy Babbling all.
11:46 am
caitlyn
Bye FM take care, I will be around tomorrow as my car has died, more time to babble!!
11:46 am
Haz1558
Bye, FM, enjoy your food.
11:46 am

Suppose I should go to bed since it is 245am
11:46 am
Haz1558
Poor car. No hope of rescue?
11:46 am
caitlyn
Night herin, go and get some sleep
11:46 am
Haz1558
It would seem to be sensible, herin.
11:47 am
caitlyn
I dont think so Haz final verdict tomorrow, trouble is we wont have a car to go and look foe a different one
11:48 am
Haz1558
That's a bit of a nuisance. Will you look for a second-hand one or go for the new car smell?
11:48 am
caitlyn
After just coming home from hols it will have to be 2nd hand
11:49 am
Haz1558
You can buy 'new car' scented air fresheners anyway.
11:49 am
caitlyn
LOL Thats a good idea
11:51 am
Haz1558
I know, shows imagination, doesn't it?
11:51 am
o-o
I think change is good, as long as it preserves the status quo.
11:52 am
m9f9l
bye all. gotta go to the family history center

Hi Bonkler and {{Soodle}}
11:57 am
Haz1558
Hello, Soodle. I don't think we'd count as one of the sweltering masses, would we?
11:57 am
Haz1558
Hello, Bonkler.
11:58 am
crosshair
howdy soodles
11:58 am
Soodle
Don't think so, Haz. I fear our sweltering days are over....at least for this week anyway!
11:58 am
bonkler
one site i looked at yesterday had the temp (factoring in humidex) as feeling like 41, air temp of 34
11:58 am
Mom
I'll trade heat for a little rain
11:58 am
Haz1558
I know. There's always the fear that once it starts raining in July, it won't stop until next May.
11:58 am
crosshair
we are still sweltering here
11:59 am
crosshair
88f atm
11:59 am
caitlyn
Hi bonkler and soodles
11:59 am
Mom
oh Haz, that is plain yucky
11:59 am
Soodle
Mom, theres 'a little rain' and then theres Ireland.....
12:00 pm
Soodle
So, any news of when the 'big change' is going to happen?
12:00 pm
Mom
I would settle for just a little rain, we have had too much already
12:00 pm
o-o
Thanks for the twitter link. The changes will take me some time to get used too, especially if lickety's list will not be available.
12:00 pm
Soodle
Babble-related, rather than menopause....
12:01 pm
Mom
I don't know Soodle, but I am just like a kid waiting for Santa, I am so anxious to see it all together. Dr_God if you are listening, please answer
12:01 pm
Haz1558
Dr_G is hoping to incorporate many of features available through Lickety,BR.
12:01 pm
caitlyn
Why wont Licketys list be available?
12:01 pm
Mom
and above the stats it says to click on a tile for a clue
12:02 pm
crosshair
is lickety retiring?
12:02 pm
Haz1558
The new redesigned site won't be compatible with Babble expert - what that means I have no idea in computer terms, but I think he's hoping to do as much as possible to compensate.
12:02 pm
crosshair
ahh ok
12:02 pm
caitlyn
I dont like changes and I dont think I like the sound of this change
12:02 pm
bonkler
not that keen on having clues on the front page. don't use lickety
12:02 pm
o-o
I guess it shall be Kay Sarah Sarah
12:02 pm
crosshair
poor lickety he has been downsized;(
12:02 pm
Mom
you would have to click on the tile, it wouldn't automatically show up
12:03 pm
bonkler
hope the option to hide all the cruft exists
12:03 pm
Mom
so those that want clues can get them and those that don't won't have to look
12:03 pm
Haz1558
I don't think Dr_G could reasonably expect people to welcome change unless it catered to people's needs, and most people like the choice to use a list (or not).
12:03 pm
Mom
lol BR and hello
12:03 pm
Mom
what is cruft Bonkler
12:04 pm
bonkler
cruft: excess visual info, junk, stuff one doesn't need/want
12:04 pm
Mom
and of course you have to leave it to LIl*Monkey, she was wondering if the surprise box at the bottom of the grid will be naked pictures of babblers. Silly Monkey
12:05 pm
Mom
ah, I see, thanks Bonkler
12:05 pm
caitlyn
LOL Mom!
12:05 pm
bonkler
like websites that have every damn thing your mousae gets near turning into a pop up, endless lists of stuff. i'm a crank i like simple, clean design
12:05 pm
crosshair
i like the idea of clickable tiles,but as to the rest we shall see
12:05 pm
Mom
I am with you Bonkler
12:05 pm
Mom
and it will rotate as well
12:06 pm
bonkler
the one change i asked for was the ablity to spin the grid but i imagine that's a coding nightmare. playing boggle that's a good way to rewire the brain, see things you didn't notice
12:06 pm
caitlyn
That will not be good if you are having a glass of wine whilst playing babble !
12:06 pm
Haz1558
Have we any say in clockwise or anti-clockwise?
12:06 pm
crosshair
he can run it a month and do an opinion poll if he likes on the changes
12:06 pm
Mom
now the issue is the number of people who didn't like the brightness of the blue and yellow for the migraine suffers so he has changed it back to green with yellow tiles
12:07 pm
Mom
let me check his demo on Facebook Haz
12:07 pm
crosshair
he should lighten that shade of green a tad
12:07 pm
KBtoy
maybe you could have a profile where you could pick your own colors
12:07 pm
o-o
someone rotates and wants a clue for the upper right letter ...
12:07 pm
bonkler
lime green on bright red!
12:08 pm
crosshair
i can see it with my eyes closed;)
12:08 pm
Haz1558
I know, BR, there can be enough confusion already.
12:08 pm
crosshair
good idea kb
12:09 pm
Mom
looks to be just clockwise on the demo
12:09 pm
FMitch
Good point BR. All i aked of Dr_g was an updated version fo Enable
12:09 pm
Soodle
Mom, your making me anxious....whats the surprise button?
12:10 pm
Haz1558
You're very sparing, FM, I had a long list of requests.
12:10 pm
caitlyn
FM have you eaten yet?
12:10 pm
crosshair
i i asked him on the clickable tiles,so blame me if you hate it;0
12:10 pm
o-o
Nonetheless, it is Jamie's site and I will continue to enjoy the game and all the upbeat people.
12:11 pm
Mom
don't know Soodle it just reads ... Top Secret Area (to be revealed later....)
12:11 pm
crosshair
ohhh a secret...
12:11 pm
Mom
several asked for clickable tiles for use with the ipad
12:11 pm
Soodle
Well said BabbleRabble. I second that!!
12:11 pm
crosshair
prabably a vid clip area for when you get firebirds
12:12 pm
FMitch
When it ain't broke, don't try to fix it was my motto the first time the site changed so I wll wait to see what the new one is likebefore I judge it.
12:12 pm
Mom
I wouldn't care if he made the colors silver and gold as long as we can still play. I would miss all of you and the game if it went away
12:12 pm
Haz1558
I agree, BR, it doesn't hurt to shake things up a bit now and again.
12:12 pm
crosshair
((MOM))
12:12 pm
Mom
the only change since I have been here is moving the tile points to the center from the corner
12:12 pm
crosshair
freshening up a site will also draw new players
12:13 pm
o-o
Jamie is the modern day Gary Moore: I've Got A Secret
12:13 pm
crosshair
im sure he loves us all,but he said new players have slowed to a trickle
12:13 pm
Soodle
Ooooh, Crossy. That will make us the 'pre-change-brigade'!
12:14 pm
crosshair
indeed soodles;))
12:14 pm
crosshair
do we all get a promotion??
12:14 pm
FMitch
lol some of us are pre-pre-change brigade
12:14 pm

Some of us are pre-change-pre-change i.e prehistoric.
12:14 pm

LOL FM I was just going to say that
12:15 pm

Yes, we can be the over the hill gang

12:15 pm
Mom

12:16 pm
bonkler

12:16 pm

We may be over the hill, but at least we've climbed up ourselves and we have a good view over life.
12:16 pm
Mom
you're welcome
12:16 pm
caitlyn
Well said Haz
12:16 pm
o-o
There ya go, Haz
12:16 pm
Haz1558
Mom, don't you remember when there were no tile stats and when the chat log was under the grid?
12:17 pm
Mom
I recall there not being tile stats but I don't recall about the chat log. I didn't chat the first year I was here
12:18 pm
Haz1558
And then Dr_G changed it and lots of people thought that the changes were terrible - but we got used to them.
12:18 pm
Mom
me being shy and all :)
12:18 pm
caitlyn
I wonder how many of us are left?
12:18 pm
bonkler
interesting. clickable letters don't do it for me but i can ignore those. of course ipad users should be punished for their temerity anyway. i like the spin the grid option
12:18 pm
Haz1558
I didn't chat for weeks either.
12:18 pm
Mom
all these new things are optional
12:19 pm
FMitch
It is surprising how many Babblers are still around from 2005
12:19 pm
Haz1558
That's good - I like people to have the choice over what they want to do.
12:19 pm
Mom
Haz, you got over your shyness quicker
12:19 pm
FMitch
nvermind the earlier ones like sprite and Ata
12:19 pm
crosshair
so,just enable what options you like
12:19 pm

I know, Mom. I'm not a very chatty person in real life, somehow this is easier.

12:21 pm
Haz1558
Should our families sue the Mail on Sunday?
12:21 pm
FMitch

12:23 pm

How did the Mail on Sunday manage to do a story on Babble? There is no obvious link to Diana/Islamic terrorists/gypsies/immigrants?
12:23 pm
BlueAndAmy
Helloooo Babblers :-)
12:23 pm
Kallia
did she have family in Australia?
12:23 pm
Haz1558
She was here from maybe around 2006 -2008.
12:23 pm

Beulah the Buzzer should suffice as the obnoxious noise.

no idea Fish, but there it was

We have ben party to births, relationships, deaths marriages and illnesses. From time to time there have been disruptions but over the years Babble still is a great game and chat.

There was a big influx of UK Babblers in August 2005 due to a mention in a UK Newspaper.

Hello, Ruby.
12:36 pm
featherbee
i went back through the archives to my babble birthdate...my first post that day was that it was almost midnight my time, and i thought i only had 10 minutes left to finish the grid! i actually had another hour and 10.
12:36 pm
Vicuna
I don't thinkt hat influx was confined to the UK. That's when I found out about it, too, due to an article somewhere that my husband saw.

Hi Jellen
12:38 pm
Vicuna
Gosh, ruby, can't you get a good enough view on the telly, but you have to run after them to watch?
12:38 pm
featherbee
i think i found it with stumbleupon too
12:38 pm
FMitch
I must be off so Happy Babbling and *poof*
12:38 pm
Vicuna
Hello, Jellen.
12:38 pm
rubyfoo
I found only 64 words this AM and hope to get a few more
12:39 pm
Jellen
Profile updated...
12:39 pm
Vicuna
Farewell, FM, dear!
12:39 pm

Bye FM. See you soon.
12:39 pm

bye FM :-)
12:39 pm
Jellen
Bye FMitch
12:39 pm
rubyfoo
hahah vicuna! Last year it came past my house, but I still watched it on TV as it goes too fast to see anything and I don't like crowds
12:39 pm
Vicuna
Oh, hang in there, Jellen! At least you know they're really trying to make sure they do everything right for Tim.
12:39 pm
bonkler
or is it just another way of expressing the 0/9?
12:39 pm
rubyfoo
bye FM ((XX))
12:40 pm
bonkler
seems to take a lot more space if that's the case
12:40 pm
Judi
Don't feel bad, Ruby. Hubby and I watched Fireworks on TV on July 4th. Damn apathetic Americans.
12:41 pm
BlueAndAmy
Oh Jellen... I know I haven't been around for a while, but I just read your profile... I'm so sorry about Tim's health! I'm sending you & him positive mental vibes (which I guess is my way of praying...?)
12:41 pm
featherbee
on tv, you get hte commentary and can know a lot more about what's going on than when you're right there, i bet!
12:42 pm
Soodle
Don't believe Ruby! I saw her on the TV wearing a yellow jersey.......
12:43 pm
Vicuna
Oops. Apologies and much shame...
12:43 pm
featherbee
i'm following it on tv, but also reading text commentary during the day when it's live. my boys are too noisy to be able to watch it during the day!
12:43 pm
Vicuna
Didn't take it anyway.
12:43 pm
Jellen
Vicuna...real words, okay?
12:43 pm
Vicuna
Enable's re choice is so arbitrary.
12:44 pm
bonkler
an actual penalty box that parks folk for five minutes when they chog a word would be fun
12:45 pm
Judi
Five minutes is rather extreme, Bonkler. Although, come to think of it, we've never set an exact penalty time. I guess you just stay in until you've et your fill of PB goodies.
12:45 pm
BlueAndAmy
K I gotta git back to work.... talk to you all lata :-)
12:46 pm

last year, when the Tour went past, I put signs up on the hedge and made a big bicycle on the grass, figuring they'd show it when they flew over in the helicopter. It was, after all, the time trial around "our" lake. Nada! I was so disappointed
12:48 pm
rubyfoo
I put and American flag and I (heart JA JA and Lance!"
12:48 pm
bonkler
for the tour should be a great big syringe
12:49 pm
rubyfoo
no no, bonk!!!
12:49 pm
rubyfoo
not my Lance
12:49 pm
Mom
ok, just checked on my start date and these people played (names I recognize): Torgone, Une, Speedfreak, Gail, smithchick, evanadine, marigold, pav3, jessmom, amelu, aloy, Pam, peri, cherrypop, stevedallas, sprite, espiritjean
12:49 pm
Judi
Perhaps if you danced naked and blew bubbles, ruby?
12:49 pm
rubyfoo
oh my God, it would break the tellie!
12:49 pm
bonkler
lance is implicated by some pretty credible folk as having been a doper and some speculate his cancer was a direct result
12:49 pm
Vicuna
Good effort, though, ruby. =)
12:50 pm
rubyfoo
every year, there'ws at least one naked guy running along side during a mountain stage
12:50 pm
Vicuna
You just have to blow a lot of bubbles, if you feel that way, ruby!
12:50 pm
Nef
Hello Everybody. How are you all today?
12:50 pm
Vicuna
Hello, Nef!
12:50 pm
rubyfoo
I don't believe it; Ffffloyd Landis is a dope (speaking of dope)
12:51 pm
Mom
{{Nef}} hello. I'm dandy, how are you?
12:51 pm
featherbee
i don't believe it either. landis has sour grapes.
12:51 pm
Mom
{{Jellen}} read your profile ... {{hugs to Tim}} as well
12:51 pm
rubyfoo
{{{MOM}}}
12:51 pm
Nef
Hi, Jellen; how is Tim? (I did read your profile)
12:51 pm
rubyfoo
yup, featherbee
12:51 pm
featherbee
after being tested for so many tours, and so many years, if he truly was doing it, they'd have caught it.
12:51 pm
Jellen
Snoring away right now...
12:51 pm
rubyfoo
for sure
12:51 pm
Nef
Hi Vicuna, Mom, ruby, Feather
12:52 pm
rubyfoo
are you sleeping and eating enough, Jellen?\
12:52 pm
Judi
Jellen - is hubby still in hospital?
12:52 pm
Jellen
Yes, ruby
12:52 pm
Jellen
Yes, Judi...should be home tomorrow...
12:53 pm
Mom
I think I will go and see if a nap is in order. {{Hugs}} to all of you.
12:53 pm
rubyfoo
you can tell that we're all thinking about you, jellen!!
12:53 pm
bonkler
armstrong strikes me as a douche but who knows. at that level there are millions of dollars at stake and people do a lot of shifty things and others can be bought. landis isn't alone in his allegations
12:53 pm
Nef
Jellen, do take care of yourself right now. *I* always forget to when DH is ill; then I stress eat and get sick
12:54 pm
Judi
Fingers and toes crossed for you, Jellen. I must be off to do some more real work. Borrrrrring.... *POOF*
12:54 pm
Vicuna
goodbye, Mom and Judi.

12:55 pm
Vicuna
Hello, redturtle.
12:55 pm
redturtlehead
just getting started here...
12:55 pm
featherbee
and people aren't alone that think elvis is still alive. sorry, i just have trouble buying the story from landis. and there have been people that have believed he is for a while, yes. but believing without proof doesn't mean he did. i agree, doesn't mean he didn't, but i choose to believe he didn't, based on the fact that he's not been yanked from the races.
12:56 pm
rubyfoo
hello red! binkie, I think anybody who has had cancer wouldn't take illegal drugs and, BTW, watch your language
12:56 pm
Nef
me too, red. I have all of 8 words so far! :-/
12:56 pm
featherbee
lol, ok, going off my soapbox now! sorry folks.
12:57 pm
rubyfoo
hahah, feather!

How is fedex not an official verb yet?
12:57 pm

12:57 pm

hello tom
12:57 pm
featherbee
gotta go shower anyway. bbl!
12:58 pm
redturtlehead
but first says to tom, you cannot enter Faxed into the grid, even, so Fedex!
12:58 pm
Nef
rolo, it's the same way that "cath" isn't a word
12:58 pm
rubyfoo
not even a word, but if there are goodies in the PB.....
12:58 pm
Vicuna
*wandering off to other hobbies for a bit... waves on the way out*
12:59 pm
bonkler
my understanding was that the drugs preceded the cancer. i don't really care one way or the other. it isn't as though he does or did anything important. he rode a bicycle. but what did anyone have to gain by making the allegation, including friends, other racers, teammates etc? whereas he has a lot to protect. the whole sport is dirty. much dirtier than my choice of words, which i'll stand by.
12:59 pm
rubyfoo
bye vye!
12:59 pm
redturtlehead
oooh treat in the grid a fu5! yummy.

1:26 pm
Scrabbler
MRI of what part of body?
1:27 pm
Scrabbler
E-mail Dr God (site administrator) and he can change your screenname.
1:27 pm
weiik
jell, if the techs did not say anything right away, sometimes that is good news, they see as much as the radiologists do
1:27 pm
Scrabbler
Oh, because of spine pain.
1:27 pm
KatieMcG
yes he changed mine for me - lovely man!
1:28 pm
Jellen
Yes, also a requirement for the clinical trial
1:28 pm
weiik
well, weiik isnt' quite that bad, I've had it for awhile, doubt I'd change it now, am somewhat of a creature of habit, I do not like change much
1:29 pm
Scrabbler
What does Tim do to stay distracted/busy?
1:29 pm
Scrabbler
How long have you been here in Babble Land, weiik?
1:29 pm
Jellen
Sleep, right now
1:29 pm
weiik
sleep is the best thing to heal the body ..
1:30 pm
Scrabbler
That's good. It means he is comfortable at least.
1:31 pm
Scrabbler
Well, I passed halfway so at 75/64 I shall go for a bike ride. I must retrieve mail from mail ctr and may not go much further due to 89 degrees!
1:31 pm
Jellen
These drugs really knock him out...
1:31 pm
Scrabbler
Yes, those 2 will do that.
1:31 pm
Jellen
Take care in the heat, Scrabbs

1:33 pm

1:33 pm
redturtlehead
I'm feeling good, but sleepy for some reason.

hope is going your way Jell for a quick recovery
1:34 pm
KatieMcG
i'm worn out brainwise today, 14 difficult phone calls made, it was either play babble or lock myself in a very dark room
1:34 pm
Scrabbler
Yes, that was a long haul. weekend call = Fri 5 pm-Mon 8 am. They are less frequent that way but sucky.
1:35 pm
weiik
jell, i think you deserve a pass
1:35 pm
Scrabbler
OK, time to fill my hydration pack with ice + water. Bye.

Are you with your dad, TO?
1:36 pm
72 Temple Owl

1:37 pm
72 Temple Owl
it is ok prob needs more help when he comes home
1:37 pm
Jellen
How is he? May I ask what is wrong?
1:37 pm
72 Temple Owl
he hurt his back and cannot tolerate the pain which makes his heart race or the pain meds
1:38 pm
KatieMcG
just hit the re's *sigh*
1:38 pm
KatieMcG
Oh TO hope he recovers soon, my thoughts are with both him and Tim
1:38 pm
Jellen
Oh, dear...I hope they can find some meds he can tolerate!
1:39 pm
KatieMcG
and you both as well :-)
1:40 pm
weiik
Katie, ur right, most forget the people waiting at the side of the patient, been there with another earlier this year, can be very trying
1:40 pm
LuwandaHL
TO & Jellen you are both in my thoughts!!!!
1:41 pm
KatieMcG
I know what you mean weiik, I think people underestimate how much it can take it out of you when you are the visitor not the patient
1:42 pm
Good Enough
yay, home from work early. boss was making me crazy today
1:42 pm
weiik
it is hard, I've had friends whom were nurses and they got attached to patients and took it hard when things did not work in their favour
1:42 pm
LuwandaHL
I've been there with my mother and sister! Keep hope!
1:42 pm
KatieMcG
yeah good (for the home early not the annoying boss)
1:43 pm
72 Temple Owl
will be ok, needs pt not drugs, that is the first resort for him thought th eprotocol is the first generally they drug you up.cheaper that way but can be deadly when sonmeone is old and already o meds
1:44 pm
72 Temple Owl
went through three meds either did not work or knocked him out or made him sick
1:45 pm
72 Temple Owl
ty for good wished good luck jellen.
1:46 pm
LuwandaHL
When you change or add a drug to an elderly person, it can really take a toll. We had to watch that with my mother constantly. The DRs would try to make changes and we had to question everything. Most appreciated it.
1:46 pm
Jellen
Of course, TO!
1:48 pm
Jellen
Get off you du**, sammysmom!
1:49 pm
Good Enough

Hello everyone. My thoughts are with those of you with loved ones who are not well. It is very rough
1:57 pm
Good Enough
hey jellen, how did you and tim get together?
1:57 pm
Christine
IOops - the prayers and wishes are still coming your way.
2:00 pm
Jellen
We met on the Internet!
2:01 pm
KatieMcG
hubby and I met on the internet :-)
2:01 pm
Jellen
It was a dating site, plentyoffish.com...
2:02 pm
KatieMcG
we met on match.com
2:02 pm
Jellen
I saw his picture and read his profile, noticed he was online, and used the chat function to meet him!
2:02 pm
KatieMcG
but if we had one with such a cool name I would have joined plentyoffish
2:02 pm
Jellen
Cool, Katie!
2:04 pm
Good Enough
how long have you been together?
2:05 pm
Jellen
A little over 2 years
2:05 pm
KatieMcG
4 years on the 22nd of this month I replied to Bry because he had a picture of our eldest cat on his profile page
2:06 pm
Good Enough
when you use dating sites like that can you say you just want people in your area?
2:08 pm
Good Enough
it would be a shame to meet your perfect mate but they live elsewhere
2:08 pm
KatieMcG
you can on match, i had a 50 mile radius but bry lived 90 miles away. He was sent a 'could this be the one' email by the site otherwise I wouldn't have met him
2:08 pm
Good Enough
aww cute Katie
2:09 pm
KatieMcG
within 6 months we were engaged and bought a house in the middle
2:09 pm
KatieMcG
this is why I have a 62 mile drive to work and not a 2 mile one lol
2:09 pm
Good Enough
oh well. i guess we all make compromises
2:10 pm
KatieMcG
when I lived in Corby I worked in MK 45 miles away, now I live in tamworth I work in Corby - the irony isn't lost on me
2:11 pm
Jellen
Tim and I commute dated...he lived 30 miles away
2:13 pm
Jellen
Then he moved in with me...
2:13 pm
Good Enough
much shorter commute then
2:14 pm
Nancy Boy
Popped in, on break again, I love stories like this! Katie, that's so amazing!
2:17 pm
Nancy Boy
oops, though...looks like I killed it.
2:17 pm
Good Enough
i don't think i know anyone who has succesfully internet dated until you two
2:18 pm
Good Enough
but maybe i just haven't heard their stories yet
2:18 pm
Good Enough
how's work tonite NB?
2:19 pm
Nancy Boy
Not bad, Good :) it's quiet at least, so I have a chance to chat with some of the punters. But, I can't resist a good love story!
2:21 pm
Good Enough
quiet means less crazy but does that also mean less tips?
2:22 pm

this time of day is usually pretty quiet in the chog
2:22 pm

ty NB, I had given up on thinking I would meet someone who would make me so happy and was happy single and it happened
2:23 pm
dcseain
being at one with singleness helps in finding someone, in my experience, katie
2:24 pm
Nancy Boy
It does, Good, but it's nice to be able to talk to people...time flies when you can have fun ;)
2:24 pm
Nancy Boy
LOL Eva. Glad you could make the time ;)
2:24 pm
KatieMcG
well it worked for me dc :-)
2:24 pm

hi, kazzer
2:26 pm
KatieMcG
I was surprised how many people on the babble community on facebook I didn't know as I have been playing for 4 1/2 years but it shows how we play at the same time and meet the same people
2:26 pm
dcseain
a dear friend of mine met her hubby through an add in a paper, too.
2:27 pm
KatieMcG
well there you go, internet or newspaper dating has worked for this chog
2:27 pm
dcseain
i'm on FB because of Babble
2:27 pm
Kazzer99
it was quite expensive and you do meet some people you wish you hadnt but i did it all in a safe place
2:27 pm
EvaNadine
talk to you tomorrow, i hope, my dear. :)
2:27 pm
dcseain
another friend met her hubby online in 1989 - we all thought she was cray back then LOL
2:27 pm
KatieMcG
I used to play on fairyland but got fed up as they kept changing it all the time now quite addicted to treasure quest
2:28 pm
Nancy Boy
it's funny - I met Leo when he literally fell on top of me on the tube, then dated long-distance. London to Brighton. I spent so many weekends in London, I don't think my friends were sure what I looked like.
2:28 pm
Nancy Boy
Hopefully I'll catch you, Eva! Working funny (long) hours at the moment, so fingers crossed..
2:29 pm
KatieMcG
Hubby cost me £60 as I joined for six months (met him within 2 weeks). I looked at an 'introduction' service but that cost £800 and I decided that for that sort of money I could go on holiday lol
2:29 pm
Kazzer99
mine cost me £196 in phone bills
2:29 pm
Jellen
plentyoffish.com is free :-)
2:30 pm
dcseain
okcupid.com is free, too
2:30 pm
KatieMcG
Oh the phone bill was shocking the first 7 months until we moved in
2:30 pm
KatieMcG
oh you got a bargin Jellen
2:30 pm
Kazzer99
he was worth every penny - been married for 11 years now
2:31 pm

I project managed at work at the time and hubby was known as 'headroom' man for a long time as my sidekick at work said I still had £730 in my budget. Bry & I went on holiday and it paid my share lol
2:32 pm
KatieMcG
OMG Kazzer, I would be annoyed if I paid £1 per minute to pick up a message from someone I didn't like, although when you meet the right one it would be a bargain
2:33 pm

We should start World War III, but instead of fighting we'll have everyone play Babble. After we've done that for a bit and had a chat about things we can then end the war, and have a ticker-tape parade for Babble...but the bits of tape would have to be shaped like letters. I hope they don't spell out 'spank' on the windscreen of the pink cadillac...

jess do you know anything about raw food diete for cats?
9:18 pm
kje
no no no - it is john
9:18 pm
jesdraggon
they're stinky and hard to do well, just like any other home-cooked diet.
9:18 pm
jesdraggon
unless you're comfortable feeding whole prey, of course.
9:19 pm
periwinkle
I know you can buy some in the specialty pet food stores.
9:19 pm
jesdraggon
but if you are meticulous, you can do a balanced home-cooked diet.
9:19 pm
periwinkle
my cat has had a UTI for over a year, she would not take the baytril
9:19 pm
rururocks
cats eat sushi?
9:19 pm
jesdraggon
ah. i am always nervous buying raw stuff because i'm paranoid and worry about contamination.
9:20 pm
periwinkle
have her on a homeopathic remedy for almost two weeks which seems to be working
9:20 pm
rururocks
ugh.. giving pills to cats is impossible
9:20 pm
jesdraggon
depends on the cat. i generally prefer pills over liquid for a lot of cats, but i'm practiced at it and quick.
9:20 pm
periwinkle
yes it is ruru, I grind them up and mix with food but doesnt work
9:20 pm
kje
i say just shoot em
9:20 pm
rururocks
I'm with you Jes.. too much risk of salmonella
9:20 pm
lbdawger
cats eat rodents and other things raw, why not sushi?
9:21 pm
stidmama
Oh, I missed mother. hello everyone else!
9:21 pm
periwinkle
she is also pooping outside the box in the living room and the diring room and it is not my house
9:21 pm
jesdraggon
baytril is not my first choice for urinary tract infections. i'm going to assume that you've tried other antibiotics and cultured the urine?
9:21 pm
lbdawger
hi stiddy!
9:21 pm
rururocks
the wasabi doesn't agree with them lbd
9:21 pm
torgone
I'm with K on this one ..
9:21 pm
LeslieAnn
hey stid
9:21 pm
jesdraggon
cats eat FRESH raw rodents. not chicken and stuff chopped and mixed from dozens of farms and then backed and shipped.
9:22 pm
periwinkle
no two vets have given her baytril, is there another I can try, the last vet did a urinalysis but I don't think he did a culture too
9:22 pm
kje
BGH is in my corner tonight... whee!
9:22 pm
lbdawger
too bad for them! love wasabi! i have a great dressing that is wasabi and balsamic vinegar! yummm
9:22 pm
jesdraggon
and a whole prey diet is fine. i'm totally okay with telling someone to feed the cat 4 mice a day, and throw a few chicks in once in a while, but how many people do you know that are going to do that?
9:22 pm
rururocks
*brown nose BGH*
9:22 pm
kje
wasabi cream.... mmmmm
9:22 pm
kje
basil cream....mmmmmm
9:23 pm
kje
any cream..... mmmmm
9:23 pm
lbdawger
ice cream!
9:23 pm
jesdraggon
if she's really had an infection for a year, you probably should request blood work to rule out a kidney thing, and consider x-rays and/or ultrasound of the bladder and kidneys, and have them send urine in for a culture when she's not on antibiotics.
9:23 pm
stidmama
I SCREAM!
9:23 pm
featherbee
ice cream! that's one i can follow! mmmmmm!
9:23 pm
LeslieAnn
peri it is worth mentioning we were in a totally wacko mood before you came in. sorry to hear about your kitty's troubles
9:23 pm
jesdraggon
if baytril is the only antibiotic they've tried, ask about trying a different one (we usually start with one of the 'cillins for most utis)
9:24 pm
rururocks
what about cephalexin??
9:24 pm
kje
can anyone make a bingo from plowiad?
9:24 pm
featherbee
better not be our game!
9:25 pm
featherbee
...and no, i don't think so.
9:25 pm
jesdraggon
and the boys are dragging me off now.... may be back later. ceph is probably okay, but doesn't concentrate in the urine the way 'cillins do. but really--if it's that long term, consider a culture and sensitivity.
9:25 pm
periwinkle

10:59 pm

I'd probably get more knitting done if I weren't on Ravelry all the time!
10:59 pm

I just got a mixed lace pattern of the net. I can't wait to try it!
11:00 pm
LuwandaHL
I found a bunch of scarf patterns I want to try, plus some purse patterns to felt
11:01 pm

I'm still learning... but I completed my first big piece last month. A blanket! I have way way way too many patterns I want to try.
11:01 pm

Near Fountain Square
11:05 pm
LuwandaHL
It's easy to get to from 65

Nifty!! There aren't very many stores around here for yarn...not a big selection anyway! Although I've been banned from buying more yarn until I use some of what I have...
11:07 pm
LuwandaHL
lol!!! me to but I usually don't follow non- self imposed bans :)
11:08 pm
LuwandaHL
What they don't know can't hurt them
11:08 pm
Magyk
Well I usually work in an elementary school but with summer here I haven't found a job yet so money is a bit tight.
11:09 pm
LuwandaHL
I save a few dollars here and there when I want some nice yarn
11:10 pm
LuwandaHL
Working in the school systems is difficult with the cuts statewide
11:10 pm
Magyk
no kidding...
11:12 pm
LuwandaHL
I'm lucky that I have been teaching long enough to keep my job. Hubby is a carpenter and his company hasn't had work since Nov. 08
