Maybe they changed it for the shoe so they wouldn't have to pay copyright to the family for ever and a day.

3:21 am

Haz1558

Over here they used to be affectionately known as gutties. It was because the soles were made of gutta percha.

3:22 am

lynxxx

3:23 am

Haz1558

3:59 am

rubyfoo

hello kaytee and ursh

4:00 am

jmcnrick

i am glad someone did that for you kaytee

4:00 am

jmcnrick

i still owe someone an upgrade but always seem too slow on the draw

4:01 am

KayteeJay

jmc - so am I. Completely unexpected and I don't know who the person is.

4:01 am

KayteeJay

What do you mean you owe someone an upgrade?

4:01 am

rubyfoo

that's really nice, kay

4:02 am

KayteeJay

ruby - I thought so too :)

4:02 am

jmcnrick

i don't owe owe one but someone upgraded me when i was broke so i want to return the favor now that i am not broke

4:02 am

rubyfoo

where are you in SA? I used to go there from time-to-time on biz

4:03 am

KayteeJay

jmc - ah, I see. I guess someone took pity on my pathetic finances too, lol

4:03 am

KayteeJay

ruby - I'm in Johannesburg

4:03 am

jmcnrick

exactly it is such a nice community that way

4:03 am

rubyfoo

mostly PE but also eastern Cape and Nelspruit and Johannesburg

4:04 am

rubyfoo

I loved going there and miss it now that I'm retired

4:04 am

KayteeJay

ah - Eastern Cape is pretty. What line of business takes you to such an odd collection of places?

4:05 am

rubyfoo

we were in the industrial glass importing business. There were factories all over the place

4:05 am

KayteeJay

What parts of Eastern Cape (besides PE) did you go to?

4:05 am

KayteeJay

Interesting - what exactly is industrial glass .. for buildings?

4:06 am

KayteeJay

jmc - when you were given the upgrade, did you at least know who gave it to you?

4:06 am

rubyfoo

one time I drove down to George and Stellenbosch [sp?] and loved Cape St. Francis. Another time I drove up from Capetown to somebody's house for a weekend, but don't remember the name of the bay.

4:07 am

rubyfoo

Most of the company handled automotive glass but I sold reflective laminated glass for buildings and also patterned glass for patio furniture

4:07 am

KayteeJay

My brother lives in George - love the Garden Route

4:07 am

rubyfoo

no, Stellendbosch was the trip to Capetown. I meant Plettenburg Bay!

4:07 am

jmcnrick

yes I did but i have seen others who were given them anonymously

4:07 am

rubyfoo

as you can tell, it's been a while

4:08 am

jmcnrick

put a thank you in your profile and they will know

4:08 am

KayteeJay

Ah, Plettenberg Bay is quite a 'play' zone, I believe

4:09 am

KayteeJay

jmc - oh, the email gives the name .. I've just never heard of him/her. Good suggestion about the profile, I'll do that, thanks

4:09 am

rubyfoo

I think the best wine I've ever had was (something like) twee junge gezellen. Obviously, I don't remember how to spell it, but it was a white with a scent of freesias!

4:10 am

jmcnrick

what is the name in the email? maybe I can help yo figure out who it is

4:10 am

KayteeJay

I love red wine - it's pretty much the only alcoholic thing I drink these days

4:10 am

KayteeJay

jmc - it says "crosshair"

4:10 am

rubyfoo

I liked cane too (bad Ruby)

4:11 am

4:21 am

jmcnrick

zzoda!

4:21 am

rubyfoo

yesterday was def an evil one. Today is not bad, 75 words with only a little help from the chog.

4:21 am

Sally-catlover

Gorgeous cat in your profile Kaytee, is it yours?

4:22 am

Sally-catlover

I have 4 words so far :-)

4:22 am

KayteeJay

Sally, yes - that's Shadow. First time I've had a male cat. Didn't know they are usually much more friendly than females, lol

4:23 am

KayteeJay

I still only have 63

4:23 am

rubyfoo

I'm stuck here but will come bck after lunch with fresh eyes -- hopefully!

4:23 am

rubyfoo

he might be smitten, kay

4:24 am

Sally-catlover

I used to have a cat that looked like that. She followed me everywhere and I miss her still.

4:24 am

KayteeJay

I simply can't find si7!

4:24 am

rubyfoo

wise sally, what would my big dogs do with a kitten? Would they love it or murder it? Lokking for a birthday gift for DH

4:24 am

zoozzoom

me neither, Kaytee

4:24 am

KayteeJay

It was the following around that got him the name of Shadow originally

4:24 am

rubyfoo

jmc clued it "not brother + percussion instrument

4:24 am

Sally-catlover

Does he want a kitten?

4:25 am

rubyfoo

no, it would be a surprise but he loves cats

4:25 am

rubyfoo

I can't think what to get him

4:25 am

zoozzoom

Yay!! thanks Ruby & Jmc

4:25 am

jmcnrick

not brother+what you bang slowly without first letter

4:25 am

rubyfoo

perhaps a one-way ticket someplace?

4:25 am

KayteeJay

gosh, good clue - I got it. Thanks ruby .. and jmc

4:25 am

jmcnrick

yw

4:26 am

rubyfoo

jmc deserves all the credit; I never heard of that word

4:26 am

jmcnrick

bad ruby

4:26 am

Sally-catlover

The dogs would probably be fine, I think they are gentle dogs aren't they. But I would introduce the kitten under strict supervision.

4:26 am

rubyfoo

:(

4:26 am

jmcnrick

me either ruby -- flosey clued it earlier

4:26 am

rubyfoo

he used to have a male siamese named Kitty Boy!

4:26 am

jmcnrick

no one way tickets!

4:27 am

rubyfoo

the modesty twins! hahah

4:27 am

zoozzoom

lol

4:27 am

rubyfoo

I thought he might like a tour of DC! hahah

4:27 am

Sally-catlover

When we found our tiny tiny kittens, I was worried about introducing them to existing cats, but it was the big old neutered tom who mothered them. He was very large and they used to sleep on his tummy, and he would wash them and play pat-a-paw with them.

4:27 am

jmcnrick

sure send him here i get along with about anyone

4:27 am

rubyfoo

that is so cute, sally

4:28 am

rubyfoo

and he is absolutely charming with everybody!

4:28 am

KayteeJay

My daughter believes that Shadow has had many reincarnations .. he seems to know it all and is not phased by anything. It amuses me when her dog tries to 'attack' Shadow and then gets head-butted instead

4:28 am

zoozzoom

Nice story Sally!

4:28 am

rubyfoo

*real poof*

4:29 am

KayteeJay

male cats are definitely more affectionate

4:29 am

Sally-catlover

The kittens weren't even weaned, about 4 weeks old we reckoned by their development, and the first one weighed 4 and a half ounces only, like a little bird.

4:30 am

KayteeJay

gosh, that sounds tiny ... not that I have much concept of what an ounce is, lol

4:30 am

zoozzoom

where did you find them Sally?

4:30 am

Sally-catlover

About 127 grams

4:31 am

KayteeJay

oh my, that's VERY small

4:32 am

potterylady

thaw

4:32 am

Sally-catlover

We had a huge log store and found them in there, just after Shropshire's one and only earthquake <g>. Think the mother had moved them in fright and lost them or abandoned them. I had to feed them every few hours. It was like having a baby again and very exhausting. They got in the most tiny places you can imagine and were very entertaining! Old ladies of about 8 now.

4:32 am

zoozzoom

got that already Potterylady :-)

4:33 am

zoozzoom

aww bless, nice to know a decent person(s) got them & looked after them.

4:34 am

KayteeJay

How many do you still have, Sally?

4:34 am

KayteeJay

My cat rules the dogs in the house. No question there

4:35 am

Sally-catlover

Just these two now - one in my profile and her sister. But recently a new one has taken to sleeping in our garage and she/he was starving so we have been feeding her. She is incredibly affectionate but I feel a bit guilty about feeding someone else's cat.

4:35 am

jmcnrick

okay birds are starting to wake up so i think I will take a nap before the sunrise

4:35 am

jmcnrick

good to have joined with this group of babblers for a while! *waves*

5:08 am

Angelsong

hi, all. I don't mean to kill the chat, but I am in nee of prayer today. Yesterday, I got a call from my son in law saying my daughter was arrested on Thursday, She is a drug addict, and has been since she was a teen. She has been in and out of jail several times, and she has three young children.

5:09 am

Sally-catlover

Oh Angelsong, I am so sorry. If thoughs can help they are with you.

5:09 am

zoozzoom

Oh no, very sorry to here that Angel..i will def say a prayer

5:10 am

zoozzoom

Is your daughter far from you..are you able to go and see her?

5:11 am

Angelsong

she may be facing up to 20 years this time. she has been "slapped on the wrist" before, but hte courts are going to tire of her very soon, I think

5:11 am

Sally-catlover

Will they not make concesssions because of the children?

5:11 am

Angelsong

she is not far, Zooz...but I am not able to see her right now. it's better that I do not see her yet.

5:12 am

Angelsong

no, I don't think so, Sally

5:13 am

zoozzoom

I understand {{{Angel}}}

5:14 am

Angelsong

I love my daughter. I do not like or approve of her behavior. The drugs have changed her. She is not the daughter I raised.

5:15 am

Yvo

Angelsong,i will pray for your Daughter,i lost one a few years ago,broke my Heart ,do you think intervention will Help,If so please try to get it for Her.

5:15 am

zoozzoom

Thats the thing with drugs, it is not your daugther doing these bad things..it is the drugs that do it, the sad thing is, the person doing the drugs are the last ones who want to get the help.

5:17 am

Yvo

lisps

5:17 am

Yvo

sorry didnt look

5:18 am

Angelsong

intewrvention might help..I don't know.

5:18 am

zoozzoom

don`t worry Yvo..i am sure know one minds at the moment.

5:18 am

Angelsong

it makes me so angry, because of the children.

5:18 am

Sally-catlover

Does your son in law look after them at the moment?

5:18 am

Uneaixoise

hey, angel . . . so very sorry about your daughter

5:19 am

zoozzoom

I take it the father is not around then?

5:20 am

Angelsong

yes, and he is a trooper, Zooz. he is trying to work and take case of the children

5:21 am

Uneaixoise

sounds like an amazing dad

5:22 am

Angelsong

they are not bad parents at all. just she is making incredibly bad choices due to the addiction.

5:22 am

zoozzoom

It sounds like he has got a lot of work to do, but at least the children have a rock in their lives...if only your daugther would try & get some help.

5:23 am

Sally-catlover

Poor chap. How old are the children? Do they understand what is happening do you think? People can overcome this addiction with the right help, Angel. Perhaps she just hasn't met the right help yet.

5:24 am

Angelsong

she was recently taking her six year old to his bus stop, and on the way, she told him she would need to go away for a while, but she would be back. he looked at her and asked, "to jail, Mommy?"

5:24 am

Angelsong

6, 3 and 2, Sally

5:24 am

zoozzoom

Thats the sticking point there Sally, lots of addicts don`t want the help deep down.

5:24 am

Sally-catlover

Oh Angel, that is so so sad.

5:24 am

zoozzoom

Oh noo, that is Sad to hear Angel

5:25 am

Angelsong

it breaks my heart. Yesterday, I felt like I was shaking apart from the inside out.

5:26 am

zoozzoom

I`m sorry Angel..i need to step away from the computer for a bit...but i am really sending you tons & tons of love {{{Angel}}}

5:30 am

Angelsong

I know god's got it all. He can help us all heal. illicit drugs are a curse in the world

5:32 am

Yvo

Angelsong tough Love,take away all thats dear to her put her in Rehab,it just might work.must try evrything,drugs cost Mony ,someone is helping her to get it.im so very sorry it touches me deeply.

I have a big objection to what the church is doing with activist nuns. They are really trying to help and the church puts them down!

The problem is the hierarchy..it is time for married priests and women priests...and to STOP all this nonsense over homosexuals!!!

For those of you who heard my drama yesterday- my email account was hacked, sent hoax messages to all my contacts, then I was locked out because hackers changed my security questions- everything is normal now!! Yahoo actually helped me on the phone and it took all of 10 minutes!

1:33 pm

crosshair

how is hubby recovering,coming along?

1:33 pm

LeslieAnn

good job ypsi!

1:34 pm

rubyfoo

we'll sue for expenses but I don't think husband will sue for damages. We have to hire a lawyer, though, which is very annoying

1:34 pm

rubyfoo

he is recovering, but this has changed him.

1:34 pm

bichon

How about loss of consortium? Mental anguish?

1:35 pm

rubyfoo

that's what I think and now, also, legal fees!

1:35 pm

rubyfoo

husband, of course, wants to use his American lawyer!

1:36 pm

crosshair

you better,those legal fees can add up fast..here a lawyer will not even talk to you till you hand over 2000

1:36 pm

bichon

If someone's dog in the U>S> does that, the owner's home owners insurance will make them get rid of the dog or be dropped

1:36 pm

rubyfoo

we are entitled to a free gov't lawyer, but he doesn't want to do that

1:37 pm

bichon

You can sue by yourself for lost of companionship [or what you call marital relations]

1:37 pm

rubyfoo

I think the owners' insurance covers all our expenses but I would like to sue for damages and to make sure that dog is put down

1:37 pm

rubyfoo

eeew! hahah

1:38 pm

rubyfoo

the mayor thought she had the authority, but I found out that she hasn't

1:38 pm

rubyfoo

now I had better go and resume those marital eeeewwww!

1:38 pm

rubyfoo

good night everybody!

LeslieAnn

hahaha

1:59 pm

stidmama

No, pini, I won't do great. it won't matter what I do, how I do it, nor how often I do well; if I am lucky I will be mediocre. I don't have the interest or stamina to try to figure out my faculty's expectations.

1:59 pm

stidmama

hey LA!

2:00 pm

Jellen

Hello...

2:00 pm

LeslieAnn

hey stiddy. well no matter what YOU say, i think you will be great. because you care.

You shouldn't try to read their minds, stid...and I still have faith in you! You're going to do well...not just mediocre...so there!

2:00 pm

Pinikula

hi jellen! :)

2:01 pm

stidmama

this was all made abundantly clear yesterday. I don't have the energy to be in "good humor" when I am on campus -- no enthusiasm remains for me there. I hope that I will perk up when I get to the school itself.

Oh, nice to see you Temple. I thought I was on my own-ee-oo! Which vid you talking about?

4:00 pm

Kaplan the Magne

4:01 pm

Soodle

Hey Kap. 2 x as6's. One to help, and the other as plus earth, or dirt...

4:01 pm

Kaplan the Magne

or mi5/14 and mi6/24? monkeys on strike.

4:02 pm

Kaplan the Magne

I don't know that second one-

4:02 pm

Soodle

The MI's are right in the middle, Kap.....(slightly cryptic..)

4:03 pm

Kaplan the Magne

I got those mi's. there are two others. Still working on the as6 you have as6'd me with. I didn't get the dirt clue.

4:03 pm

Soodle

To dirty something is to so 4/4 i. You can add an AS in front....

4:03 pm

lbdawger

hi everyone, anyone have the si7?

4:03 pm

Kaplan the Magne

Thank you for the as.

4:04 pm

72 Temple Owl

happy babbling all!

4:04 pm

Kaplan the Magne

I don't have the si7, those two pesky mi 's and gee- it says I have 4 left but only 3 missing.

4:04 pm

lbdawger

finito!

4:05 pm

lbdawger

si + what you do to a guitar

4:05 pm

Soodle

The MI's you are looking for are MI plus Cons, plus Dad, and plural

4:06 pm

Soodle

Yay. Grats on the fireworks, Lbdawger!!

4:06 pm

lbdawger

ty, soodle. did you have a nice birthday?

4:07 pm

Kaplan the Magne

FIREWORKS!!

4:07 pm

Kaplan the Magne

Now I have to get off my butt.

4:07 pm

Soodle

Lol, its not till next week, LBD..... Its such a significant birthday, I have started the apprehension early!!!

4:07 pm

lbdawger

whoooo hooooo Kap!!

4:08 pm

Soodle

Wooo-Hoooo Kap!!! Good for you.

4:08 pm

lbdawger

lol, well then celebrate for a week!

4:08 pm

Soodle

Maybe that should have read apprehensiveness....?

4:09 pm

lbdawger

and i love you icon! i love rotties!

4:09 pm

Soodle

Oh, that is King. He passed away in July. We are still not over the loss, but I love having his pic on here.

4:11 pm

lbdawger

ahh, I'm sorry to hear that. I bet he left a big hole in your heart. I still miss my big dobie and my min pin and it's been several years since they crossed the rainbow bridge.

4:11 pm

Soodle

And now we have Buster - a rescue mutt -Absolutely bonkers! As I type, he is chewing on an onion that he liberated from my veggie rack. The dog is Nuts!!!

4:12 pm

lbdawger

watch out, onions can be harmful to dogs

4:13 pm

lbdawger

maybe you should have named him bonkers instead! lol

4:13 pm

Soodle

I will be harmful to that dog if he doesn't stop rootling around in my vegatables!! He doesn't actually eat the onions, he just plays with them.... and its not as if he has no toys.... He has every single one of my daughters cuddly toys shredded to bits....

4:14 pm

lbdawger

destructo-dog! maybe he needs a log to gnaw on.

4:14 pm

Soodle

I have been to the petshop, and bought him countless 'Doggie Toys', but he prefers cuddly teddies and onions. Bonkers!!

4:14 pm

speedfreak

soodle did you get another rottie my first rottie was great the one I have now is a yr. old and chews everything is sight all my couches, loves lint from the dryer, every bed I buy her and she has plenty of toys good thing I love her!!!

4:14 pm

speedfreak

soodle did you get another rottie my first rottie was great the one I have now is a yr. old and chews everything is sight all my couches, loves lint from the dryer, every bed I buy her and she has plenty of toys good thing I love her!!!

4:15 pm

speedfreak

sorry for double post

4:15 pm

lbdawger

speed! yup rotties have a tendency to slowly mature, lots of damage in their growing up. trees, furniture, houses...

4:16 pm

speedfreak

spoiled with my first one then, this one will be sleeping next to my chair and gnawing on the bottom of it!!!

4:16 pm

Soodle

Hi Speed. Nope, I just couldn't bring myself to get another rottie. There was only one King, and he was unreplaceable. Buster, (or Budget, as he is affectionately known as) is a pure-bred mongrel. But of all dog breeds, Rotties are my absolute favourite.

4:16 pm

redturtlehead

Hello all. So glad my Teulu is pretty well done with the chewing phase, but he does seem to like towels.

4:17 pm

Soodle

Hiya Red :-)

4:18 pm

Soodle

LBD, did you ever get another dog?

4:18 pm

speedfreak

Bandit is our 5th dog (all rescues) and the only one that ever destroyed the house!! I have had 3 rotties, I doberman, and 1 shepherd

4:18 pm

lbdawger

hi red! i got my boyz to quit destroying their toys when i'd pick them up and cuddle them and talk to the toys like they were real...then i'd sew them up and tell the dogs to be gentle. worked most of the time unless they got to rough housing with each others toys!

4:19 pm

lbdawger

no, we're still petless. I have a backyard full of deer, raccoons, squirrels, birds of all varieties, and my neighbors have dogs that i get to puppysit.

4:19 pm

redturtlehead

too funny LBD. the only issue I have now is like Pavlov, when I turn on the shower or Bath Teulu gets his towel and starts shaking it like he is going to kill it. I gave up and gave him his own towel.

4:20 pm

lbdawger

does Teulu not like water?

4:21 pm

redturtlehead

He loves to swim (which he can not do in florida, but...it seems the water in the house is a signal of his to mess with the towel...

4:21 pm

Soodle

When our Rottie King was a pup, he got into my daughters bedroom while we were out. We came home to a scene similar to the beginning of Saving Private Ryan. There were Barbies beheaded, legless, armless, mutilated in horrific ways. It took my daughter quite a while to forgive him..

4:21 pm

periwinkle

hey all

4:21 pm

redturtlehead

hi peri! DId you take turn in Scramble?

4:22 pm

periwinkle

according to MSN: 60 is the new sexy. ie. then I must be sexy :)

4:22 pm

lbdawger

rofl, soodle. Hi Peri

4:22 pm

redturtlehead

I am on my way to sexy then.

4:22 pm

Soodle

Hiya Peri. You were at the beach today? Oh lucky you. There is definitely an Autumnal chill in the air round these here parts...

4:23 pm

lbdawger

my dobie did that to a pair of slippers and a love seat arm rest. I came home from school to find fluff all over the place. he also managed to devour my mass media book and homework disc!

4:23 pm

periwinkle

they showed pictures of 26 famous woeman and priased them for their youthful good looks. Give me a break. If I had the money I would have cheek implants, , chemical peels, etc. Don't know if I would even go under the knief for a full face life tho

4:23 pm

Soodle

Oh, for heavens sake!!! With my (very significant) birthday rapidly approaching, now your telling me I have to wait another 10 years to be sexy???? ITS JUST NOT FAIR....

4:23 pm

lbdawger

ooh 5 more years til sexy, but with my luck the number will change again.

4:24 pm

periwinkle

Cher was one of the women. come on. I think she looks great but man she has had lots of work done all over. And Diane Sawyer looks lovely too but her face if flawless. I don't know of anyone over 60 who looks that good. Makes me angry. I feel better now

4:24 pm

redturtlehead

would you really do all that peri? I don't think I would bother...I'd take a trip..or something else with the money.

4:25 pm

periwinkle

I'd like t o get rid of the age spots and sun damage red. and I will do that some time soon after the summer :)

4:25 pm

Soodle

Would anybody throw rotten tomatoes at me if I pointed out that its what INSIDE that counts?

4:25 pm

lbdawger

i agree, red. take me for me. bulges, bags and all

4:26 pm

periwinkle

The beach was lovely indeed

4:26 pm

redturtlehead

4:26 pm

periwinkle

I am very far skinned

4:26 pm

redturtlehead

No soodle, not at all. I ran a race this morning and the nastiest rudest people there were 2 ladies who were thin and very scantily clad, and very pretty but, quite nasty.

4:27 pm

redturtlehead

4:27 pm

lbdawger

4:27 pm

periwinkle

4:27 pm

Soodle

Jeepers I earned every single one of my laughter lines, my stretch marks, and I wouldn't part with them for diamonds. They are part of ME! I earned them, and I wear them with pride.

4:27 pm

periwinkle

4:28 pm

redturtlehead

periwinkle

4:28 pm

TeaNCrackers

4:29 pm

Soodle

periwinkle

Jillyjill

It IS an addiction...when no one's asking we still feel that need

6:19 pm

redturtlehead

seems most people polished this one off..early.

6:20 pm

crosshair

i imagine gremlinn and the flip crew had it done in 15 minutes

6:20 pm

Jillyjill

Yep, some moments after it was flipped!

6:20 pm

redturtlehead

my excuse was that i ran in the am...

6:21 pm

Jillyjill

Okay, have become familiar with most babblespeak, but can someone clue me on NBT?

6:21 pm

redturtlehead

6:21 pm

walking /running for fun...i walk on concrete for 10 hours a day.my fondest wish is for plastic feet

6:21 pm

Jillyjill

ahhhh tyvm, will add that too my collection!

6:22 pm

redturtlehead

there was a 75 yr old at the race today. he finished a few minutes behind me!!! thats really why I run.

6:22 pm

Jillyjill

Well, I generally just go for what's easy at the flip....nighttime is NOT my best time.

6:23 pm

crosshair

when i sit down at the end of the day the bottom of my poor feet swell and go all round for the first hour;(

6:23 pm

redturtlehead

i am never up for the flip...

6:23 pm

We had a triatholon here today.....

6:23 pm

6:23 pm

crosshair

i am once in a while,but it is too much,they do not clue each other really,they just do the first two letters of anything 6 letters and over,and bam! they are done

6:24 pm

Jillyjill

Crossy, have you tried Crocs? They are my godsend--am on my feet mostly standing for procedures for like 8 hours straight....

6:24 pm

crosshair

are they a good walking shoe?

6:24 pm

redturtlehead

We arent allowed to wear crocs anymore as one person tripped in them. Gotta wonder about the hospital.

6:25 pm

crosshair

i can wear inserts to shreds in a month.....

6:25 pm

crosshair

that not those plastic things with holes all over?

6:25 pm

Jillyjill

They have a set of 'professional' shoes with extra arch support...only problem with walking as you learn NOT to shuffle your feet...the shoes stick and you go head long...lol

6:25 pm

redturtlehead

cross have you tried Tuli's heel cups? I really like them and not very expensive. I use them for running.

6:26 pm

crosshair

and i have no arch any more,i killed it ten years ago;((

6:26 pm

redturtlehead

try the heel cups, very nice. I was surprised at the extra happiness they give me!

6:27 pm

Jillyjill

Red, mine tried to eliminate them but even the podiatrist said the 'real' ones had worth. These new 'professional' ones are solid, no holes and OSHA approved-static resistant

6:27 pm

crosshair

i will check it out red

7:27 pm

m9f9l

7:27 pm

hpb

the bubble bath sounds nice. if only i had some chocolate to go with it... :)

7:28 pm

redturtlehead

7:28 pm

m9f9l

2 yo season is not geneology season!

7:28 pm

hpb

I'm trying to be frugal and resourceful and make all our bread for the next couple months at least. we'll see how it goes.

7:28 pm

m9f9l

indexing! that's what it's called~

7:29 pm

m9f9l

you'll get fat!!! LOL eat way more bread when it's homemade...\

7:29 pm

hpb

not like bread is all that expensive, but it still feels like I'm saving money.

7:29 pm

redturtlehead

healthful too.

7:29 pm

m9f9l

(or at least I do)

7:30 pm

hpb

Let me know if you like indexing. I've been thinking about signing up.

7:30 pm

hpb

And I don't eat much of this bread because it's white. I prefer wheat, but my husband prefers white. Maybe I'll make wheat tomorrow.

7:30 pm

m9f9l

I used to do it. I like it. kind of like playing babble... trying to decipher the writing sometimes... looking for clues in other entries..

7:30 pm

hpb

But I'm trying to eat less bread overall. Makes me bloated.

7:31 pm

m9f9l

I'm not much for white bread either... unless it's crusty french

7:31 pm

m9f9l

or sourdough

7:31 pm

hpb

Mmmm...crusty french.

7:31 pm

redturtlehead

always ate wheat growing up and can not stand white.

7:31 pm

crosshair

my weakness is fresh crusty kaisers

7:31 pm

redturtlehead

but I do like sourdough and crusty anything.

7:32 pm

m9f9l

they used to bring me a cd to index.. now it's very easy.. all online.

7:32 pm

hpb

Maybe I'll look into it again. Probably wouldn't require as much uninterrupted time?

7:33 pm

m9f9l

it would be on your puter... so similar to babbling..

7:33 pm
