mr9f91 - I took your suggestion to read Bellwether - good book. I was ready to put it back when I saw the blurb about winning a sci-fi award (for another book ?), but I'm glad I went ahead with it. Thanks for the heads-up.

On the front of the book it says she's one of science fiction's best writers, and I'm not (much) into sf.
12:24 am
m9f9l

see?? that's why a lot of folk don't read it.. but it's not really sci-fi the way most people think of it.

3:33 am

Sally, you have been a busy lady recently, how are things in your neck of the woods?
3:34 am

Oh sorry to hear that Sally and as you say the chooks etc still expect food at the regular time.

No it was very warm last night ruby, we have had a sudden spell of nice weather.
3:38 am

Tell me about the wild birds!!! I get a row of sparrows sitting and tutting at me if I don't get the feed out on time :)
3:38 am

did I tell you about the bat in the bedroom the other night?
3:39 am

Where I am is getting down to about 8 overnight now.
3:39 am

It seemed much bigger than the ones I usually see in the garden
3:39 am
sprite

we have a single, lovely day here. My love just left with Terra for a canoe trip, enjoying the last good day, probably :)
3:39 am
Sally-catlover

Yesterday I heard a very loud tapping and went through to the breakfast room, thinking it must be a woodpecker at least. We have a little veronica outside that window, and there were three fledgling tiny blue tits in it, and on the windowsill tapping it for insects. They were about 2 feet away from me. Lovely!
3:39 am
rubyfoo

is Terra a good swimmer?
3:39 am
sprite

it was a vampire bat, rubyfoo!
3:40 am
FMitch

and this was the husband who wasn't sure about getting a dog! So funny and that great pic you have sprite of him and Terra fast asleep on the sofa back when he was a puppy :))
3:40 am
sprite

he can swim, but doesn't go into the water voluntarily. Just walks in up to his tummy.
3:40 am
rubyfoo

nah! I love bats. Usually we have many little black ones circling the garden at dusk. They look like black butterflies. But this was a brown one and stayed for about a ten-minute visit while husband cowered under the pillow
3:40 am
FMitch

How lovely to see Sally!
3:41 am
sprite

I will have new pics soon, FM! They are sooo cute togethery, my love and Terra.
3:41 am

aw that is so cute, Sally
3:41 am
Sally-catlover

Are they pipistrelles do you know ruby?
3:42 am
rubyfoo

they never hold still long enough to do a good identification, but I think so
3:42 am
sprite

lolllll poor husband. If ever he gets nasty again, rubyfoo, just tell him if he doesn't behave, you call your bat friend.
3:42 am
rubyfoo

I think that's why we don't have mosquitos
3:42 am
FMitch

on the bat phone :)
3:42 am

3:43 am
Sally-catlover

Oh yes, it would be. "Our" swallows take care of a lot of insects for us.
3:43 am
sprite

can I borrow some swallows and bats then?
3:44 am
rubyfoo

our little birds are so lazy from husband feeding them, that I don't think they eat any insects
3:44 am
FMitch

*shows age here* I had a Batman themed 5th birthday party.
3:44 am
rubyfoo

we don't have swallows
3:44 am

I'm older, FM, saw Batman "serials" as shorts with movies when I was a kid -- pre-TV!
3:45 am

Oh last summer before I moved I remember being utterly flabbergasted by seeing the batmobile driving up Ascot High Street (on its way to a charity event).
3:47 am
sprite

wowww rubyfoo, that is impressive.
3:47 am
rubyfoo

no, just a coincidence. People visit after the "season" is over.
3:48 am
rubyfoo

that is a ho**, FM
3:48 am
Sally-catlover

lol FM. When my son was about 14 I took him on holiday to Kos on his own (husband was occupied with something) and we hired an open-topped pink car, wider at the back than the front, which I called my Lady Penelope car. (Now who's showing her age?!)
3:48 am
FMitch

sheesh didn't have that one, thanks ruby.
3:49 am
rubyfoo

another guppy, pls?
3:49 am
FMitch

LOL and Parker the chauffeur.
3:49 am

Lady Penelope?
3:50 am

nice :D
3:50 am

*Thunderbirds* a puppet series way back when.
3:50 am
Sally-catlover

That's the one FM. Son thought it was great.

Hello
3:50 am
rubyfoo

I guess English, rather than American. And we had no TV until 1953
3:50 am
sprite

rubyfoo, check out my profile, see Sep 30 :)
3:50 am
Sally-catlover

Not easy driving on narrow Greek roads whe back of car is wider than front.
3:50 am
sprite

hi lady *hug*
3:51 am
rubyfoo

good morning Lady Herin!
3:51 am
sprite

I know the Thunderbirds... are.... gooooo!
3:51 am
FMitch

Hi herin.
3:51 am
FMitch

now I really am going to go and get that 2nd mug of tea BRB.
3:52 am
Sally-catlover

rofl sprite. What pictures should we all choose for icons that day?
3:52 am
herinfernallady

Hi hugs back. Ruby about that dog with your husband. The pet store here are selling Dutch x German shepherd working blood line for pets. My friend is desperately trying to get them surrended into her care
3:52 am
rubyfoo

that is so sweet, Sprite, I am touched!!
3:52 am
herinfernallady

Waves hello
3:52 am
rubyfoo

maybe dogs theme, then I won't have to change poor old Max......
3:52 am
sprite

well that depends, I think. He has had a bad bad scare and blessure wi4 the dog, so some sympathy is expected. But we also know how bad he can be to rubyfoo. So some fun is expected too ;)
3:53 am
Sally-catlover

:-)
3:53 am
Sally-catlover

Batman perhaps
3:53 am
rubyfoo

he doesn't understand how much pleasure and support I get from Babble! I wish he had something comparable in his life
3:53 am
sprite

Batman sounds good :D
3:54 am
sprite

good for her, lady. I hope she gets them. Those pet stores, argh.
3:54 am
rubyfoo

puppy mills. aaargh!
3:55 am
sprite

it is hard to understand for people who don't have something similar, I think. And he isn't really young enough to change his mind... not because he is almost 85, but because of his set ways.
3:56 am
herinfernallady

These are actual owners that did this not a farm. Which she is terrified that these are working line dogs that are sold as pets
3:56 am
rubyfoo

yes, you are right, sprite. It amazes me that he learned how to use a computer at all after he retired.
3:56 am
sprite

so much depends on their socialisation, lady.
3:56 am
rubyfoo

At least if people get them young enough, maybe they can be tamed and trained.
3:57 am
sprite

yes that is great, ruby :)
3:57 am
rubyfoo

but "Magik", the bad beauceron, ws adopted when he was around 7 or 8; who knows what his early life was like?
3:57 am
sprite

my grandfather did the same (he was very keen on learning new stuff). He learned to use Word and email program and enjoyed it very much.
3:58 am
rubyfoo

after all, he is a magnificent dog but he must have had a shady past to have been abandoned
3:58 am
herinfernallady

Sprite yes but these are guard dogs and they need all the attention and drive they can
3:58 am
rubyfoo

he's home now, but can only be walked at certain hours, must be locked up in a kennel at home, must have a muzzle and a short leash -- but who is going to enforce all of that? We have 3 police for this whole village!
3:59 am
sprite

rubyfoo, there is no knowing what the poor dog has been through. But after what has happened to your husband, the animal must either be put down, or (not likely where you live) been tested and rehabilitated at an animal care center.
3:59 am
rubyfoo

(talking about the beauceron, not husband -- hahah)
3:59 am
rubyfoo

the owner is "required" to take classes with him, but I think an 8 or 9 yr old dog is too old to be trained.
4:00 am
Sally-catlover

Is there a caveat, though ruby? Dog must be muzzled etc but IF this doesn't happen, then he can be taken back into care?
4:00 am
sprite

they are never too old to be trained, but not every bad thing can be trained away.
4:01 am
rubyfoo

I think so and husband is bravely walking his regular route, past their house!!! Talk about stubborn; he must be part chow chow
4:01 am
FMitch

just the same as husbands eh sprite?
4:01 am
rubyfoo

at least DH doesn't bite!
4:01 am
sprite

lollllllll
4:01 am
sprite

hm mine does, sometimes... should I muzzle him? Or just nuzzle back?
4:02 am
FMitch

nuzzle beats muzzle every time :)
4:03 am
rubyfoo

lol, sprite!
4:03 am
sprite

hehehe I think so too. He is the best in the whole world. Some bad habits included... I always say they give me permission to have some of my own.
4:03 am

Noises an owl makes minus first letter ruby
4:05 am
herinfernallady

Yes Sally
4:05 am
rubyfoo

isn't that with Robert Downey Jr.?
4:06 am
FMitch

Talking of TV, there was the most compelling and powerful documentary on TV last night about 9/11 purely made up from peoples phones/cameras as the events unfolded.
4:06 am
rubyfoo

oh, silly me.....
4:06 am
FMitch

I am Sally is there a film out too? Shows how out of touch I am.
4:06 am
herinfernallady

Ruby this is the BBC
4:06 am
herinfernallady

What was that called?
4:06 am
rubyfoo

we get occasional BBC series, but mostly just BBC news
4:07 am
Sally-catlover

No, the Robert Downey Jr one is a film. We belong to a film hire club called LoveFilm, and recently requested the film but got an absolutely dire version by mistake. Saw a lot of complaints from people who had made same mistake. There is a film with Jude Law as Watson and Robert Downey as Holmes, but I reluctant to rent it now.
4:07 am
herinfernallady

We downloaded it off the net
4:07 am
rubyfoo

it got good reviews, but won't be here for a long time, I imagine
4:08 am
rubyfoo

that's the one! Did you know that Jude Law makes French perfume commercials -- such a pretty boy
4:08 am
Sally-catlover

Thought the TV version called Sherlock was brilliant. We don't have TV, but watched it on iPlayer.
4:09 am
FMitch

i-player is great for catching up on missed progs but I was looking for Martin Clunes 2nd part of the horse series yesterday and couldn't find it.
4:09 am
herinfernallady

FM what was that called last night?
4:09 am
rubyfoo

I wonder if it will be on Fr TV?
4:09 am

102 Minutes That Changed America herin.

Thanks. Have you seen: Eleven Minutes, Nine Seconds, One Image: September 11
4:10 am
rubyfoo

I'm writing it down although haven't been able to go back to Manhattan since 9/11.....
4:10 am
rubyfoo

it still breaks my heart!
4:11 am
FMitch

The thing that made it even more poignient (if that is possible) is that I had read an artile in the paper this week about how many people are ill/dying that survived the attact because of all the toxins etc that were part of the dust.
4:11 am
rubyfoo

that is a horrifying part of it, and not much spoken about these days. They'd rather talk about the silly mosque controversy
4:12 am
FMitch

no I haven't herin
4:12 am
sprite

same was here with the Bijlmer disaster. The El Al aeroplane that hit a flat.
4:12 am
herinfernallady

It is an amazing doco. They show different countries that react as it happens. They have the footage of the ''falling man''
4:13 am
herinfernallady

And a beautiful story by Sean Penn
4:13 am
rubyfoo

we didn't even know about it as it was unfolding. French friends all called to tell us to turn on the TV!
4:13 am
FMitch

It was a Kennedy moment for another generation - you remember exactly where you were when you heard the news.
4:13 am
FMitch

I was in Paris at the time ruby.
4:13 am
rubyfoo

yes, it's true. Do Europeans have "kennedy moments" too?
4:14 am
Sally-catlover

Yes FM. We heard it on the radio in the car, just caught the end of something and thought it was a play or something at first (like they did War of the Worlds originally).
4:14 am
herinfernallady

I was in bed and woke up to it on the tv. THat was the day I broke the internet for the month as I had friends in the NY Fire dep
4:14 am
rubyfoo

aaah! My son was a month old and I was nursing him, alone in the apartment, and with no TV!
4:14 am

9/11 made us a global Kennedy moment.

9/11 didn't just change America

Still some coffee in my pot, sprite. Milk? Sugar?
4:19 am
FMitch

LOL I was just wondering how to reply to herins post!
4:19 am
rubyfoo

it is very good to talk about it! My sister sent me every article from the NYT afterwards and I was able to read EVERY little biography. I used to do a lot of work with the Port Authority in the World Trade Center and was hapy to learn that none of my colleagues had been killed.
4:19 am

The book was about a lady in a counter terrorist cell.

thanks lady!
4:24 am

hm ok, so no Ata because of hard work. I can accept that, if I have to. But what is Haz's excuse?
4:24 am
herinfernallady

It was a very good read
4:24 am

the whole idea of that was horrible! sandy told me about it, really a shocking idea that some crazy person could go through all the old chogs, looking for bad stuff
4:24 am
FMitch

Haz and MrHaz are going on holiday
4:25 am
Sally-catlover

What together! Shock! Horror! What is the world coming to?
4:25 am

only someone really vicious and obsessed will do things like that, rubyfoo. It is pretty pathetic, to be honest.

I'd be in deep doo if somebody did that except my husband would never see it anyway....hahah
4:25 am

FM, tell her no way. That is NO excuse for leaving us.

They have had aftershocks zooz and just to add to the whole thing are aparently going to get very high winds. :(
4:36 am

Don't enjoy sudoku, sprite. Just don't see the point.

It is good for the brain but can make you kick your puter.

oh I love sudoku. Makes me think purely logical, which is good for an emotional person like me.
5:01 am
Sally-catlover

Do you play on facebook?
5:01 am

no, I try to stay away from FB. Too many small games there to eat my ti4.
5:02 am

I do Dr_Gs sudoku plus the ones in the daily papers.
5:02 am

I don't FB at all
5:02 am
Sally-catlover

I'd forgotten that Dr_G had a sudoku link.
5:03 am
sprite

I have a sudoku booklet on my bedside table. I play before going to sleep, helps me put my mind in another pattern.
5:04 am
Sally-catlover

I think that would keep me awake, sprite. The letters and numbers would be going round in my head.
5:04 am
FMitch

good grief sprite - I thought I eas bad enough at dreaming yellow squared grid but to do sudoku before bed would keep me up at night.
5:05 am
sprite

I tend to think too much about all kinds of things... you know, when your head is too busy to sleep? And playing sudoku changes that. I usually get sleepy halfway my second puzzle.
5:05 am

Want to know how I get to sleep if I am having problems dropping off?

Some years ago when I had an MRI, I had to keep absolutely still for about 20-30 minutes. Of course, as soon as someone says that you want to scratch your nose! And I went through every nursery rhyme I knew, then the alphabet backwards.
5:11 am
Sally-catlover

(To concentrate to keep my mind off moving)
5:11 am

that must be hard to do Sally
5:11 am
FMitch

why is it always the nose?
5:11 am
sprite

awful, isn't it Sally! I had one too once and I itched everywhere. I did the alphabeth backwards, 3 down, 2 up.
5:12 am
Sally-catlover

I couldn't stand up afterwards sprite, and had to be helped.
5:12 am
FMitch

the nose never itches in anyother set up!
5:12 am

it was before my ptsd was diagnosed. I kept up appearances until I was home, then collapsed for over a week.
5:13 am
zoozzoom

mine used to itch when i used to get my hair cut..lol

Sally-catlover

Ah, mine was to confirm a diagnosis of spinal stenosis. Hence early medical retirement and a golden handshake. Terrible choice to make ;-)
5:15 am

disorder I mean. It was not the reason I was in the MRI, that was because of a big tumor in my shoulder.
5:15 am
sprite

argh Sally, that is really tough.
5:15 am
lynxxx

spinal stenosis, I have never heard of that, how does that bother you Sally?
5:15 am
Sally-catlover

Oh I had no idea sprite. So sorry about that. You had surgery? Don't say if it's private.
5:16 am

yes had surgery, it came out fine, and was found to be benign. Nothing to worry about.
5:16 am

Hi Molly. I think it means that it exists as a word, but they don't know the meaning! When I'm curious, I google the word.

7:19 am

*~*~*POMPOM TOSS FOR DAN *~*~*
7:20 am

actually it's how I like my science writing - story & metaphor based, with copious footnotes in case I want to delve deeper
7:21 am
dan2bit

but fatherhood definitely crimps the reading opportunities :-)
7:21 am
dan2bit

learnt a new favorite word "abecediary" from the history part
7:22 am
72 Temple Owl

meaning?
7:23 am
dan2bit

meaning a language where the alphabet is taught in a prescribed order (ABCD-ary) :-)
7:25 am
carleekat

that Is a great word :)
7:25 am
Gеогgе

I've seen that word somewhere before, dan, can't think where though!? wish I could remember it in word games, ha!
7:25 am
72 Temple Owl

hard to imagine the reverse
7:25 am
72 Temple Owl

or opposite, more precisely
7:26 am
dan2bit

yes the book says that all alphabet languages are abecediary now, though there may have been a point where they were not
7:26 am
carleekat

or..the abscence?
7:27 am
dan2bit

it's contrasted with syllabary writing systems, like Japanese kana, or pictographic, like Kanji or Hieroglyphics
7:28 am
carleekat

now....where would stenography/ short hand be in that?
7:28 am
dan2bit

hmm. good question. stenography probably a combo of alphabet and syllabary? I don't know enough about the coding
7:29 am
carleekat

short hand reminds me of arabic
7:29 am
carleekat

phonetic
7:30 am
dan2bit

the distinction is how many sounds you can represent with a single symbol - less than one is alphabetic, one is syllabary (aka phonetic), more than one (whole word) is pictographic

7:48 am
carleekat

it was wasnt it nono... my son was bartending at an outdoor concert last nite..came home frozen....hell when its been 90f for a couple months to drop to low 50s
7:49 am
NonoNanette

exactly Carlee, we just came off a streak of 6 days over 90 and I dont think it ever hit 60 yesterday
7:50 am
carleekat

but really for the last 2 months...temps have been high 80's low 90's....we had 1 or 2 days in low 70's
7:50 am
NonoNanette

7:52 am
NonoNanette

we had a couple of showers in the afternoon, luckily we were able to put everything under the awning at that point
7:52 am
carleekat

good good
7:53 am
NonoNanette

got rid of a ton of "junk" its funny what some people will buy
7:53 am
carleekat

i like garage saling...its fun...i just hate having them tho
7:54 am
NonoNanette

we have very little storage room so periodic sales are helpful
7:54 am
carleekat

i know one woul dbe very beneficial... i just get irritated by people who barter and cheap down...i say the price is... that the price..now bugger off
7:55 am
NonoNanette

I hauled out a bunch of extra computer wires, cables ect and said 10 cents each they all went!
7:55 am
carleekat

when i go..i pay the tagged price..i am still getting a deal..why cheap out..and rip someone off
7:55 am
NonoNanette

i had a couple of people barter the price down but not that many and I don't mind on some things
7:56 am
carleekat

i find it insulting..each way
7:57 am
NonoNanette

if the item cost me a lot new and I've barely used it then the price is firm but other things that I really can't use anymore I just want to get rid of it
7:58 am
carleekat

i remember having a garage sale and my husband made this amazing sandbox out of cedar with a canvas canopy top and a nice lid so cats cant dig in it
7:58 am
carleekat

the materials alone were like 350.00
7:58 am
carleekat

someone wanted to buy it brand new..50.00
7:59 am
carleekat

bloody insulting
7:59 am
carleekat

and they stood there...."how dare u ask so much for that...stood there arguing with us makig a scene
8:00 am
NonoNanette

oh that would definitely tick me off carlee
8:01 am
NonoNanette

and I hate when people say, "what's wrong with it, why are you selling it?
8:01 am
carleekat

the people inmy town are cheap... u can tell by the restaurants here....the weathy go out of town to shop...they only come out during "artsy" functions
8:02 am
NonoNanette

first off if something was wrong with it I wouldn't try to sell it!
8:02 am
carleekat

high end clothing for most part is walmart here
8:02 am
carleekat

and going out for italian means going to pizza hut
8:02 am
NonoNanette

lol I hear ya on that
8:03 am
carleekat

there this little area downtown..even tho downtown is almost dead
8:03 am
NonoNanette

even tho we do have an italian restaurant here in town, I still go to Pizza hut for Italian LOL
8:04 am
carleekat

ok..well mexican is taco bell
8:04 am
NonoNanette

our downtown area is quite busy during the summer months as we are a tourist town but winter is another story
8:05 am
carleekat

and a&w is having trouble surviving as they are the most $ fast food
8:05 am
NonoNanette

but it really is geared to the tourists and not the locals which is a shame
8:05 am
carleekat

and we have a pop of 90 000
8:06 am
carleekat

we are geared to blue collar and retired folks
8:08 am
NonoNanette

I don't think there is a single store on market street where you can go and find an outfit to wear for a party or to work or what ever. They are all specialty shops
8:08 am
NonoNanette

And they wonder why all the towns people go to the mall to shop
8:08 am
carleekat

again..downtown..one little block...and jeans are 500.00/ pair we have that..or walmart...no in between cus no one around here will pay in between
8:10 am
carleekat

oh..we have sears too... and zellers ( like kmart)...we are not big enough for a cosco...even tho port huron would flock over in a heart beat for cosco...( port huron in MI and is a 10 min drive....30 if traffic bad at border)

I just picked the last of the tomatoes and almost the last of the blackberries for his supper.....
9:13 am

you are such a good person Ruby
9:13 am
carleekat

*~*~*pompom twirl*~*~* for ANGEL.....woot
9:13 am

9:13 am
rubyfoo

I'll never get pompom today!
9:13 am
carleekat

why not ruby????
9:14 am
rubyfoo

42 left and nothing in sight. All I am seeing are lovely phantoms!
9:14 am
Mom

remind him of where he would be today without your loving care these past few weeks. He would have been up sh** creek without a paddle, that's for sure
9:14 am
rubyfoo

hahah
9:15 am
rubyfoo

he won't even talk to me
9:15 am
carleekat

ahhh..up the proverbial tributary with an adequate means of propulsion...
9:15 am
carleekat

then ignore him ruby
9:15 am
rubyfoo

and tomorrow I have to prepare the whole file for the lawyer and start getting written testimonies from witnesses.....
9:15 am
Mom

maybe you should let him do that, Ruby
9:16 am
rubyfoo

that's why I'm down here in my studio
9:16 am
rubyfoo

he isn't capable
9:16 am
carleekat

i think so too
9:16 am
rubyfoo

he refuses to speak French and can't hear anybody's answers, anyway
9:17 am
rubyfoo

fortunately, the house is big enough that I can totally get away from him
9:17 am
rubyfoo

and it is lovely in here
9:18 am
Mom

stay put then
9:18 am
rubyfoo

babble and nice people, how bad is that?
9:18 am
Mom

it is no wonder you hardly weigh anything ... all that stress you are under
9:19 am
rubyfoo

I don't feel so stressed this time, I guess I'm getting used to it or at least more resigned.....
9:19 am
Mom

Oh Ruby, I wish there was something I could do for you
9:20 am
carleekat

been there...done that
9:20 am
rubyfoo

no, really, I'm OK -- if he wants to stew in his own juice, I'll let him. Tomorrow is another day
9:20 am
Mom

can you sleep in your studio?
9:21 am
herinfernallady

mmf judging from snoring from other room seems i have to battle the cat off the bed too
9:21 am
rubyfoo

I refuse to go the "abject apology, tears, etc." for some imagined trespass
9:22 am
rubyfoo

no, I watch TV in our bed, but it's a king and I barricade myself with 5 pillows! hahah
9:22 am
rubyfoo

and I take the telecommand out of his hand
9:22 am
Mom

:)
9:22 am
carleekat

got so cold here last nite i had 3 cats curled up with me... 3 cats..irritable husband...i take the cats any day
9:23 am
herinfernallady

I must consider my self lucky. I have been with himself for 8 years We have had one major fit in all that time
9:23 am
rubyfoo

if the dogs weren't stinky, I'd put them on the bed but, for some reason, chows never get up on the furniture
9:23 am
rubyfoo

you are amazing herin!
9:23 am
Mom

that is good Herin
9:24 am
herinfernallady

We don't see the need to fight. I know that the one fight we had was over a miscommunication of a bill and it wasn't even his fault.
9:24 am
herinfernallady

snippy yes yelling and screaming no
9:24 am
rubyfoo

I think I was alone for so many years between marriages, that I'm not willing to put up with his bu**sh** any more
9:24 am
Mom

good for you Ruby
9:25 am
herinfernallady

and so you shouldn't
9:25 am
rubyfoo

the only problem is that I feel sorry for him
9:25 am
Mom

why is that?
9:26 am
rubyfoo

he is getting old and is sort of broken by the bits. He sees the end and isn't happy about the way he is ageing
9:26 am
rubyfoo

bites*
9:26 am
Mom

and he could be afraid to face his own mortality.
9:27 am
rubyfoo

and, you might ask, who is????
9:27 am
rubyfoo

that is surely the case
9:27 am
Mom

guess that is the same as what you said
9:27 am
rubyfoo

this is where the age difference becomes noticeable -- it didn't matter 25 years ago!
9:28 am
Mom

I have found people around me who are afraid of dying because of how they have lived and how they treated people. I guess afraid of what might happen to them once they are dead
9:28 am
Mom

what is the age difference, Ruby?
9:29 am
rubyfoo

and he is so estranged from his children, that makes it much worse. He actually has 5 grandchildren and a great- , all of whom he doesn't know!
9:29 am
rubyfoo

18 years
9:30 am
Mom

he seems to have managed to alienate everyone around him
9:30 am
Mom

do they live over there?
9:30 am
rubyfoo

yes
9:30 am
rubyfoo

and I'm his 4th wife!
9:30 am
rubyfoo

but it was brilliant for a while!!!
9:31 am
Mom

it must have been, I can't imagine you marrying him back then with the way he is today
9:32 am
rubyfoo

it was really wonderful for a long time but he was never an easy-going man -- I just didn't mind it while we were working
9:32 am
rubyfoo

I think retirement was the killer for him
9:32 am
rubyfoo

and I'm not a cutie any more, that's for sure!
9:33 am
rubyfoo

I can't believe that enable accepts Fr roof!
9:33 am
Mom

it is what is on the inside that counts not the outside.
9:34 am

Hi dear redturtlehead. Lovely day here in the Northwest and if you don't like the present weather, wait a couple of minutes and it will change to perhaps something more appealing. Sweater weather in any case (socks with sandals.)

Hi stidg! sounds like trouble getting the right clothing in that sort of weather!

Right, the clothing thing calls for the fashion police quite often. Warm but not fashionistically-speaking, correct.

Me5/12 to finish this grid 1st then do story of clues, but I could not wait so for those starting the grid an 4/8, I will wr 5/8 my story now. I am going to ve 4/7 about my husband's hatred of Babble.I'm addicted to babble. I th 6/21 for it as soon as I wake up. But my hubby is so anti-babble.I me4/5 he really detests the game.Sometimes hubby is the ba4/6 of my existence when it comes to babble. It is a good thing that I did not discover Babble when I was just a ne5/22 wed. I think we woud have gotten divorced within a month I believe it woud be be 4/6ficial for husband to start babbing because it would build his vocabulary, which he lacks.He always en6/18s my help for grammar and spelling when writing a cover letter. But I'm at my wi 4/8 end in trying to get him to join Babble. Husband is hell be 4/6 on avoiding Babbleland. He em 4/5 such contempt for the game. Hubby me 6/27 makes snide remarks and yi5/14 whenever I babble.Sometimes he is a tw 4/8 and st 4/4 up trouble and causes a ri 4/4 and a huge argument ensues. I've argued wi 4/9 him about Babble on several occassions. I think it is a ho 4/5 that my husband hates my babble addiction, yet sees nothing wrong with his Farmville addiction.Now it is ti 4/5 for me to get fireworks. I'm going to open up the li 4/4 and find my last three words. Then I am going to go watch the movie An4/4 and the King. Bye
