i lived in wilmington for a year. hated the place and got out as soon as i could

jillibus

Never went to Wilmington -- what's to hate?

jillibus

My cousins actually lived in Southport

12:33 am

2:20 am

Haz1558

Hello, Katie.

2:21 am

sprite

how is your arm now, Haz? healing up properly?

2:22 am

Haz1558

My arm? You must be thinking of someone else, sprite, and now I'm trying to think who it might be...

2:22 am

sprite

or I am mixing up body parts. You were not allowed to iron for a bit... why was that again (I apologise for not remembering)

2:23 am

Haz1558

I had my gall bladder out in August -maybe that's what you were thinking about. I'm fully recovered from that. (was ironing the next day...)

2:23 am

KatieMcG

aren't you supposed to do nothing for 6 weeks after that operation?

2:23 am

sprite

oh darn yes, that was it. So sorry, Haz. It is not lack of interest, just the lousy working of my brain. Glad you fully recovered.

2:24 am

Haz1558

Katie, it was keyhole surgery, 4 tiny wee incisions. If it had been the open wound it would have been a different story.

2:25 am

Haz1558

No problem, sprite.

2:25 am

KatieMcG

I'm sure it took Mari longer than a day to get back to normal lol Glad all is well & hope it has made a difference re pain

2:26 am

KatieMcG

OMG didn't know the time, must dash and get ready for work

Haz1558

It certainly has - I wish I'd had it done a lot earlier but kept putting it off. I was in for about 24 hours, no pain relief needed after 3 days, so it has revolutionised the treatment.

2:27 am

Haz1558

Bye, Katie!

2:27 am

sprite

bye Katie, have a good day

2:27 am

2:30 am

hi lady *hug*

2:30 am

Haz1558

Hello, herin.

2:30 am

sprite

very nice and smooth, Haz, I am glad.

2:31 am

herinfernallady

How are you all and hugs

2:33 am

sprite

not too good. About to kick my father out of my life again, but waiting for my sister to make up her mind first. But at least I am learning something atm.
How are you?

2:34 am

herinfernallady

Sprite take one day at a time and when you come to that decision tell him why just don't cut him off. He may not even realise he has done something inappropriate

2:35 am

sprite

oh believe me he does. It is all intentional, that is the problem. Now trying to get between my sis and me again... as always. Divide and conquer, his eternal tactic. But yes, I will tell him why. Always try to be fair.

2:38 am

herinfernallady

Good Sprite. Because you are not a matt that should be walked on

2:40 am

sprite

nope. Am so angry with myself that I wanted to believe him again. Should have sent him back his first letter unopened. Stupid me.

2:43 am

melissamay

Hi sprite. You've long been one of my favorite people here because of your good heart. I'm sorry you're hurting because you wanted to do a good thing and forgive. I hope it gets better for you soon!

2:44 am

herinfernallady

My ex had to do the same with his mother and everyone was appalled at the idea but she really wasn't very nice.

2:45 am

sprite

aw melissamay... thank you for saying that. Good tears now for a change, thanks.

2:46 am

sprite

some people are like that, aren't they. No matter what you do, they will be cruel and do damage. I cannot understand why.

2:46 am

herinfernallady

Hi Melissa and that is a very sweet and truthful thing to say. Now I will be back in 5 as I have to drag me butt out of my bed for a coffee.

2:46 am

melissamay

Well now I'm smiling too, and no one can say "happy tears" without me joining in. Happy tears for all!

2:47 am

sprite

*hugs melissa*

2:50 am

melissamay

*big hugs back, more where they came from if you need spares*

2:51 am

sprite

thank you :)

2:52 am

herinfernallady

Well now am upand I tell you it is over rated

2:53 am

sprite

*grin* lady. At least the coffee is good.

2:54 am

herinfernallady

That is brewing

2:54 am

melissamay

May I please order a cup? My philosophy is that coffee someone else makes is always delicious.

2:55 am

sprite

I fully agree

2:55 am

herinfernallady

Yep

2:57 am

herinfernallady

sod I have a cat hair in my eye

2:57 am

sprite

better than the other way around, but still not funny

2:58 am

herinfernallady

herinfernallady

Finished my first one last week

3:03 am

sprite

wow that must be fun.

3:03 am

melissamay

Hey, just want to say goodnight. I'm up late procrastinating on a project and it's been so much nicer talking to you both instead of behaving.

3:04 am

sprite

oh I know that feeling. But go, melissamay, the project needs you. Will miss you though. Good night and *hugs*

3:04 am

herinfernallady

Night Melissa

3:05 am

saphyre

thanks :)

3:05 am

Haz1558

Congratulations on the new arrival.

3:06 am

So I am now officially old, but I am loving every minute of it :)

3:06 am

3:07 am

saphyre

Azaelia Blaire

3:07 am

oh that is beautiful

3:07 am

herinfernallady

3:08 am

sprite

I am hearing a proud grandmum :)

3:08 am

saphyre

hehe yes I am one of those

3:09 am

sprite

I like it :)
Will you get to see her a lot?

3:09 am

Haz1558

A grandma who isn't proud is pretty unusual, I'd say.

3:10 am

saphyre

she is 8 hours away by car but i was there when she was born and spent two weeks then went back again and going again next month

3:10 am

sprite

perhaps, Haz, but they do exist.

3:10 am

saphyre

And get a picture everyday

3:11 am

sprite

quite a drive, but worth it

3:11 am

saphyre

yes well worth it

3:12 am

saphyre

she gave me her first real smile right before i left to come home - it was amazing :)

3:12 am

sprite

awwww too cute!

3:13 am

saphyre

Grandmothers have the luxury of having the time to enjoy the little things...when you are raising your own there is so much to do that you can miss so much

3:14 am

sprite

it must be completely different. Not being the first one responsible must make a difference too.

3:15 am

saphyre

But it is hard also because you want to do things how you did in the past but at the same time do not want to overstep

3:15 am

sprite

I can imagine. Especially when the mother has other ideas now.

3:16 am

saphyre

Thankfully my daughter is very open to suggestions LOL

3:16 am

sprite

lol

3:17 am

herinfernallady

Saph you still in contact with Granny's family?

3:17 am

saphyre

But I try to remember how it felt when people told me how to raise my children and do not want my daughter to ever feel like that

3:18 am

saphyre

Yes her son had his first baby 4 months ago

3:18 am

saphyre

her name is Jocelyn

3:18 am

herinfernallady

O bless

3:18 am

sprite

no... but I remember how grateful I was for good advice and validation, so maybe you don't wanna be too careful either

3:18 am

saphyre

You are right Sprite - I will keep that in mind

3:18 am

sprite

gratulations to them too

3:19 am

saphyre

Yes I wish Maxx could be here to see little Jocelyn, she is beautiful

3:19 am

herinfernallady

I was thinking how much I missed Granny the other day and was wondering were you were

3:20 am

saphyre

I stop in and do a few words every night but it is usually after being on the comp for 12 hours since I work from home now so haven't chatted

3:20 am

herinfernallady

wow

3:21 am

saphyre

I will try to stop in more often

3:21 am

sprite

that would be so nice :)

3:21 am

herinfernallady

Please do Saphire

3:22 am

saphyre

I do miss chatting here, just trying to build my graphics business, advertising business, traffic exchanges etc etc etc

3:22 am

saphyre

lol

3:22 am

sprite

you have your priorities straight, saphyre, I admire you.

3:23 am

saphyre

I have given myself a year to build up my online businesses or go back to work outside of the home

3:24 am

saphyre

and it has been about 6 or 7 months now and I am doing pretty good but have a lot more to go

3:24 am

sprite

wow! Great going, saphyre! Sounds like you are gonna make it work.

3:25 am

saphyre

I'm trying. It was great being able to just take the laptop with me and spend the time at my daughters when she had the baby

3:26 am

sprite

am serious about the admiration. Not sure I would be able to work in that situation. You rock.

3:26 am

saphyre

lol

3:26 am

saphyre

I enjoy it so that makes it easier

3:27 am

saphyre

hey i'm in the grid - saph - lol

4:20 am

lynxxx

hi Infernal. No - ?

4:20 am

herinfernallady

There is one that claims that my old High School is the best place to learn. I think i actually snorted.

4:21 am

zoozzoom

snorted..LOL

4:22 am

herinfernallady

I did. It was the place to learn homophobia and bullying and not basic maths and English

4:22 am

lynxxx

Schools change a lot with the Principal. I know the Secondary school my daughter used to be a shocker, when she went it was great

4:23 am

4:25 am

zoozzoom

ok, how come `Easle` is not allowed

4:26 am

herinfernallady

Don't know. But feeling the need to be bitchy for some reason. I guess i am tired

4:29 am

zoozzoom

Oh dear, have you had a bad day Herin?

4:30 am

herinfernallady

I think more just a long day and I had to deal with a very small yappy dog this morning

4:31 am

zoozzoom

I know how you feel about the Yappy, dog, don`t get me wrong, i love dogs. but my neigbour has got a young dog, it does not stop yapping, driving me mad.

4:32 am

herinfernallady

This dog is a rescue and has one setting loud

4:32 am

zoozzoom

LOL, sorry shouldn`t laugh really.

4:32 am

herinfernallady

It is cute. I told him to sit and he went crazy. I told him go crazy and he sat

4:33 am

zoozzoom

hate to think what he would , if you told him to eat..lol

4:34 am

herinfernallady

No idea and I swear the dog was made of pee

4:35 am

zoozzoom

the garden next to mine, really smells...they do not clean up after the dog, i might have to have a word soon, if nothing changes.

4:36 am

herinfernallady

That is horrid for the dog

4:37 am

zoozzoom

I agree, not a nice enviroment for him at all.

4:39 am

herinfernallady

err Is there any way of contacting the council or someone to help the dog

4:41 am

zoozzoom

I did think that Herin, there are three ways to go about it i fell, one is what you mention, the other is, they are renting next door, i know the owner, could have a word with them, or talk to the dog owner, and see if they could reason with me.

4:42 am

zoozzoom

feel*

4:44 am

zoozzoom

Sorry, PB for me for wi4 :-(

4:59 am

redturtlehead

He would love it, the cat might not...Hi zooz

5:28 am

zoozzoom

Has you may know..why `Easle` is not accepted in the grid.

Ok, now i have gone veru red faced.

Fancy that, Zoozzoom - a new word every day.

5:57 am

zoozzoom

thats what i love about Babble, always learning.

5:58 am

Christine

I'd thought of it only as a town in N. England -- now I know better, I'll look it in the dictionary.

5:58 am

Christine

*look for it.

5:58 am

Trifioso

hello my dear babble friends

5:59 am

zoozzoom

Hello, Trif :-)

5:59 am

Anniebrook

morning, Trif

5:59 am

Christine

Hello

5:59 am

Trifioso

absolutely bucketing rain here today, and good not be more welcome. one of the most parched summers in history here.

6:00 am

Trifioso

funny thing though - we will probably still get buried in snow....

6:00 am

Anniebrook

happy you got the rain, trif

6:01 am

zoozzoom

Your plants will be very happy then Trif.

6:01 am

zoozzoom

Your plants will be very happy then Trif.

Your plants will be very happy then Trif.

6:02 am

Christine

Hear the singing of the plants ...

6:02 am

zoozzoom

oh dear, looks like i got hiccups.

6:02 am

Trifioso

me too, annie! the weather people have been so funny, making all sorts of predictions about how the leaf color will go this fall - as if there is a THING we could do about it!

6:02 am

Trifioso

leaf color is BIG here in NE

6:03 am

Anniebrook

the foliage is amazing in the NE..we always go upstate NY for a weekend to see it

6:04 am

Trifioso

apparently this is not going to be a good year annie -- not enough water in the summer means poor foliage color come fall. the leaves just curl up and turn brown, I guess.

6:04 am

Anniebrook

Both outside columns grayed

6:05 am

Anniebrook

I really hope not...i think it will still be spectacular

6:06 am

Christine

Anniebrook, what books have to to recommend, today

6:06 am

Trifioso

way to go annie! and I think the leaf thing is on a scale - even when it is only halfway, it is still twice as good as most other places

6:07 am

Anniebrook

hi christine, do you have books to recommend

6:07 am

Christine

I noticed in your profile --

6:09 am

EspritdJean

Hi gang

6:09 am

Anniebrook

6:12 am

EspritdJean

6:13 am

Christine

I have Little Bee on reserve, picking-up seventeen books on Tuesday, I think it's among them. Loved The Help. I'm on a re-reading kick - T.Jefferson Parker & Lee Child.

6:16 am

Anniebrook

im on expert and dont know how to google from here.... I am such a ninny

6:17 am

Trifioso

congrats zoom! I will be interested to hear how you like the Help - I am thinking a Brit will read it very differently from an american

6:18 am

zoozzoom

thanks Trif, it was other Babblers who recommended it.

6:18 am

EspritdJean

annie is it "Innocent"?

6:21 am

Trifioso

hmmm. seems enable takes a dismissive view of "spanx" -- I can tell you, they are pretty wonderful!

6:21 am

Sally-catlover

What are they Trif?

6:21 am

EspritdJean

just when we thought we were done with girdles they pull us back in!

6:21 am

Trifioso

Sally-catlover

Ooooh, thank you.

6:22 am

Trifioso

heh heh esprit - they do indeed "pull us back in"

6:23 am

Anniebrook

Jean, sorry i took so long to answer, I was away from the computer...it is Extreme Justice

6:24 am

Christine

Trifioso - I'm a Bti, but I've been a Califotnian for so long (almost 50 years), perhaps I reas the Help fom a combined point-of-view. Either way, I loved it.

6:24 am

Uneaixoise

me too, christine

6:25 am

Hi Une

6:25 am

6:26 am

Christine

Uneaixoise - your quote about the dumb boy, what was it from?

6:27 am

Uneaixoise

latest John Sanford novel

6:27 am

Uneaixoise

not at all the tone of the novel!

6:27 am

Christine

I'll put it on my list. The quote's a keeper - and a re-user.

6:27 am

EspritdJean

There's a line I love from Brighton Beach Memoirs: Eugene is talking about his nagging mother's voice and says "if they cut off my ears, I'd hear her through my nose" (said in Brooklyn accent)

6:27 am

Anniebrook

Any book by Henning Mankell is very good

6:28 am

Uneaixoise

I read all his books but FYI this one is really grim -- child abuse

6:29 am

Uneaixoise

loved Brighton Beach Memoirs

6:29 am

Anniebrook

Une, Is that is his latest to be translated?

6:29 am

Anniebrook

I live in Brighton Beach

6:29 am

Uneaixoise

pardon my ignorance but is it a book? I saw the trilogy on Broadway

6:29 am

Uneaixoise

cook, annie!

6:29 am

Christine

Henning Mankell is one of the books waiting at the Library - after The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo I got on a Swedish-kick.

6:29 am

EspritdJean

yes a book and a movie with matthew Broderick

6:30 am

Uneaixoise

saw the movies too

6:30 am

Anniebrook

Brighton Beach Memoirs was a play by Neil Simon

Did you watch the first part of Downton Abbey?

11:24 am

Oh yes, I managed to watch most of it and it was super.

It certainly looks the part - I had a great time spotting all the actors.

Loved the opening sequences and the story is building nicely

11:26 am

hurshy

11:26 am

Haz1558

Yes, it's just a pity it's interrupted with those blessed ad breaks.

very derogatory name for italians peri

2:40 pm

carleekat

pe...are you a half *** ( stupid...not intelligent)

2:41 pm

carleekat

( at least i think it might be a derogatory name for italians....if I am wrong..i am sorry )

2:44 pm

msideb01

guido would be a derogatory name for Italians, whereas half-*** is merely slang for someone who is dull or unintelligent

2:44 pm

varumba

tx guys, hadn't found those 2 PE words ;)

2:44 pm

msideb01

in any case, I've never heard it applied specifically to a particular ethnicity

2:44 pm

so you saw my invite on FB?

2:54 pm

dianedecoder

Yesssss I did !!

2:54 pm

varumba

oh you know, this could our new common chat room ;)

2:54 pm

varumba

oh i'm so glad you took it up! warning though; VERY addictive

2:54 pm

dianedecoder

another word game to be addicted to !

2:54 pm

varumba

yep

2:55 pm

dianedecoder

ha ha ha.. .just said that !

2:55 pm

jmcnrick

BWAAA HAAAAA!

2:55 pm

jmcnrick

hi all

2:55 pm

varumba

it's not a race though here.... the aim is to find all the words everyday...... if you're stuck, you can ask ppl here

2:55 pm

varumba

hi jmc

2:56 pm

varumba

and at the bottom, below the grid, find "lickety's clues" open that in another window, and you'll get clues to the words, like the first 2 letters, and how many points the word is worth

2:57 pm

varumba

4 letters = sum of points on the tiles ; 5 letters = sum x 2; 6 letters = sum x3 etc

2:57 pm

dianedecoder

and I see the protocol.... noone gives the actual answer, just very good clues which in turn exercises our brains even more !!

2:57 pm

varumba

absolutely... also, if you click ont he little question mark by the word that you ahve find, it opens up a window giving you the definition!

2:58 pm

varumba

the ranking system comes up in 3 different boards.... the one i understand the most is the average score for each player... if you click on the "rankings" tab up here, it's well explained ;)

2:58 pm

dianedecoder

I don't see "tickety's clues".... maybe yu have to upgrad to pro status ?

2:59 pm

varumba

Lickety's babble clues right below the grid

2:59 pm

varumba

i think you can see it without upgrading... but i upgraded myself, only $15 for life!

3:01 pm

dianedecoder

nope.... still don't see Lickety's clues . I played the first day, not knowing how the tile stats worked :-) It's getting more familiar each time !

3:02 pm

varumba

mmmmm mb for upgraded only then..... as i said, only 15 $ for life

3:02 pm

cosdem

upgrading is definitely worth it

3:02 pm

varumba

the tile stats below the grid tell you how many words start with each letter in THAT column

3:02 pm

varumba

we get to have pretty icons ;)

3:03 pm

varumba

3:12 pm

jmcnrick

hi peri

3:12 pm

varumba

there are various ways... what ever works ;) but i guess when one doesn't get the meaning, then trying to spell it without actually spelling it is the way ;)

3:12 pm

dianedecoder

okay...allowed !

3:12 pm

lynxxx

how is that all going jmc - esp the Geneva job?

3:12 pm

varumba

stidmama

good thinking. I will get my shot as soon as I am not sick anymore

5:00 pm

redturtlehead

I am so freaked out by this news story, this woman died in a fire last night, in a double wide trailer with 44 chihuahuas. Her family keeps claiming she was a breeder, but none of the dogs were current of rabies vaccinations...thats not a breeder, thats an animal hoarder.

5:11 pm

jmcnrick

well it is a sad story for the woman and the dogs

5:11 pm

Congrats, m9...your first child to get married, right? I say KISS :o) Keep It Simple Sister.

5:44 pm

m9f9l

exactly! i'm not even doing anything yet. She's pretty much taking care of everything.LOL

5:44 pm

NonnieLight

lol jellen...I tried to bribe my second daughter into eloping. She said afterwards that she probably should have taken me up on that.

5:44 pm

m9f9l

she's way more organized than I am. Not as prone to procrastination.LOL

5:44 pm

m9f9l

and yep. my first.

5:45 pm

Jellen

When I got married, I paid no attention to the season vs. the flowers I chose...must have cost a bomb!

5:46 pm

m9f9l

she was out in the yard today, getting ready to plant the daffodil bulbs that we ordered months ago and were just delivered. Odds are VERY high they'll be in bloom for the wedding...

5:46 pm

m9f9l

and if not.. I'll have a lot of daffodils!LOL

5:46 pm

NonnieLight

We made a lot of our own decorations, bouquets, cake, food, etc...
I have to say for both of them we were very fortunate as both husbands have tons of family in town and a lot of what we couldn't do was taken care of by them.

5:46 pm

Jellen

I'm sure she already has one, but get a good checklist...

5:46 pm

m9f9l

she's collected LOADS of baby food jars.. will put a bulb in each one, and ribbons around each jar.

5:47 pm

Jellen

Real Simple weddings had one I had thought was good...

5:47 pm

m9f9l

I'll ask her. I know she took out some books from the library.

5:47 pm

m9f9l

and then the guests can take the bulb/flowers home.

5:48 pm

m9f9l

so they're her favors too.LOL

5:48 pm

NonnieLight

What a wonderful idea with the bulbs.

5:48 pm

Jellen

That is a cool flower idea!

5:48 pm

m9f9l

well.. her fiance's fave color is orange. and hers is green. So she's going with mostly white with dark orange and green accents.

5:49 pm

NonnieLight

We made little boxes out of card stock and put a truffle in each and put that at each place setting. The card stock was in the two colors.

5:49 pm

m9f9l

nice! Nonnie.. we DO love our chocolate don't we!!!LOL

5:50 pm

NonnieLight

lol indeed we do!

5:50 pm

5:54 pm

NonnieLight

She actually got married in July and then had the reception in November.

5:55 pm

NonnieLight

5:59 pm

m9f9l

get her a "B", and an "A".. and then a couple more "B"s...and...LOL

5:59 pm

NonnieLight

Oh well at least you don't have to do TWO receptions because of the two families not living near each other. The closet Temples for us are Dallas or Memphis and my youngest chose Dallas.

5:59 pm

Jellen

I have a Pandora bracelet, and Tim bought me beads for that each holiday...

5:59 pm

5:59 pm

NonnieLight

Pandora bracelet? I've never heard of that.

6:00 pm

m9f9l

oh that would be hard Nonnie.. I don't wanna do it TWICE!

6:00 pm

m9f9l

of course... receptions aren't all that complicated.. with my family.. I'd just make it a potluck!LOL

6:00 pm

Jellen

It's like a charm bracelet, but instead of charms, you have patterned beads...brb...

6:01 pm

NonnieLight

lol---that worked for ours too. Nothing fancy here.

6:01 pm

m9f9l

in fact.. she's assigning food I believe..LOL. He did his mission in Louisiana.. so they're having jambalaya and mixed salad.

6:03 pm

NonnieLight

Oh jellen...that is beautiful!

6:03 pm

Jellen

Mine's not quite that full...

6:03 pm

crosshair

i like the little cakes idea..and probably it is a lot more economic that some single 2000 dollar wonder thats 99% fondant

6:03 pm

Jellen

It starts out plain, and then you add to it...

6:04 pm

Jellen

I like the little cake idea, too!

6:04 pm

NonnieLight

I agree, crossy. And cupcakes seem to go over well also.

6:04 pm

6:05 pm

Jellen

Hi, Lady B!

6:05 pm

NonnieLight

6:05 pm

Lady Biotch

Hi!

6:05 pm

Jillyjill

Carrot cake too...yummy!

6:05 pm

6:06 pm

Lady Biotch

hi crossy - were your ears ringing last night? your name came up at a fellow babblers house last night

6:07 pm

6:12 pm

m9f9l

we had the tbg wraps for dinner couple nights ago... and ... nope.. didn't think of crossy. I DO think of him when having bacon at Tim's restaurant though.. cause that is apple smoked.LOL

6:12 pm

NonnieLight

lol...the squirrels are in the oak tree knocking all the acorns off. The tree hangs over the tin roofed shed so it sounds like it is hailing outside.

6:13 pm

Jellen.. I'll do it with you!

6:14 pm

i love the sound of rain on metal roofs

6:15 pm

stidmama

*hugs everyone* I had a nap and feel almost human...

6:15 pm

m9f9l

I remember being in a metal ... well.. I wouldn't call it a shed.. It was HUGE! on a wheat farm, when the wheat was being belted up and into a shaft. THAT was LOUD!

6:15 pm

Jellen

Thanks, m9...was just thinking of the food I'll have to give up or at least moderate...

6:15 pm

Jillyjill

nbt...but don't think I'll finish this grid tonight. Have to pull together first youth ministry meeting which is Wednedsday...

6:15 pm

NonnieLight

me too crossy. That is what we're putting on the shop we're building. Since we'll be living in one end until we can get the house built, I'll get to hear that beautiful sound.

6:15 pm

Jellen

wd, Jilly!

6:16 pm

m9f9l

I've gone low carb a few times.. and I always end up thinking that noncarb food really does taste better. It's just that life gets busy.. and carbs are so convenient.

6:16 pm

stidmama

are we talking weddings? I never had a wedding... had a big party once though!

6:16 pm

mamma played the guitar the,and daddy made the saw blade spin,and rain drops played the tin roof like a drum....la la

it is a ongoing saga m9

9:10 pm

m9f9l

I'm good. The muggy isn't bothering me as much now that I've had some awesome beef stew.

9:10 pm

Jacula

Lol, Crossy, had a few typos of my own, too. I'll be going to bed hoping to seek warmth on this cold night from my Beloved. I've told him it's 'his job' to allow me to warm by feet etc., on his fleshy bits.

9:11 pm

m9f9l

an epic crossy

9:12 pm

firefly779

"fleshy bits" - sounds steamy :)

9:12 pm

would put clavell to shame..and with that my novel becons and i concede the victory to the grid with 43 left

9:12 pm

m9f9l

I had a friend whose mom used to slip her feet under my friend's father's behind. She'd say "your father's bottom is the warmest spot in the house." My friend always thought that was cute.

9:13 pm

we5/20 anyone?

9:14 pm

Jacula

If warming my feet on his bum and warming my hands on his hairy chest and his tum is 'Steamy'? Though, I do disturb him a bit with my tossing an turning and throwing the duvet over him at frequent intervals 'cos one minute I'm boiling to death and the next minute I'm freezing to death - that's the menopause. LOL

9:14 pm

Minveryork

we 5/12 are people that speak Gaelic maybe firefly79

9:15 pm

Jacula

m9 - really not sur about that thing with your friend having her feet under your Dad's bum.

9:16 pm

Jacula

we5.20 - people from Wales. Croeso i Gymri.

9:17 pm

m9f9l

oh now that would be REALLY odd.. since MY dad is dead.

9:18 pm

m9f9l

AND cremated. AND washed throughout the straights of Juan de Fuca

9:18 pm

Jacula

Ah, I've read it again now. I see what you were saying, m9 - but it's still kind of odd, unless your friend was 8 or below.

9:19 pm

Jacula

m9 - my Dad's dead, too and scattered undr a tree outside my Mum's garden without her even bothering to invite me.

9:21 pm

Jacula

But, as far as I recall, I don't think my Dad had a warm bum. It was my Mum who'd 'make a lap' for me to sit on in bed and put her arms aroudn me.

9:22 pm

m9f9l

I understand that. My dad took care of our mom's ashes without any of us.

Dad used to be called upon on Sunday mornings to put his knees up under the covers for me to slide down to do the old rhyme 'I'm the king of the castle and you'r the dirty rascal'. If I landed before he expected me to, he'd ook somewhat pained.

9:23 pm

m9f9l

9:23 pm

Jacula

Well, I didn't know about 'tender bits' then, did I? LOL

9:24 pm

m9f9l

X-p

9:24 pm

Jacula

m9 - you look shocked. No need to be; there was no impropriety.

9:25 pm

m9f9l

that's not a shocked look. that's a "oof!" look.

9:26 pm

Jacula

However, I sometimes wonder if my unexpected landings caused me to be an only child.

9:27 pm

Jacula

Oof indeed! Which reminds me - who's seen the Germany's Got Talent link my son's g/f put up on Facebook?
