Hello, ((Ruby))
5:22 am
zoozzoom
How is your husband today??..did the nurse come round?
5:25 am
rubyfoo
she hasn't been here yet and he is much worse. Trembling all over. It's very scary
5:25 am
rubyfoo
and he adamantly refuses to go to the hospital
5:26 am
zoozzoom
It must be very hard for you, Ruby being torn between his wishes for no one to help him and you wanting him better, hope the nurse gets there soon for you.
5:27 am
rubyfoo
and maybe he'll listen to her.
5:28 am
zoozzoom
I do hope so, maybe you could have a chat with her before she sees him and you could explain he is stubborn..and she might tell him to think of your feelings as well as his own..that might work.
5:30 am
rubyfoo
fortunately, since she came here for 3 months to treat his dog bites, she knows him well. And I spoke with her on the phone yesterday
5:32 am
zoozzoom
Thats a good start then at least..lets hope everything will turn out well.
5:32 am

thanks for your support, zzoozz!

You are more than welcome, Ruby, :-)

6:39 am

is it the one that rhymes with the rat word that you are talking about?
6:40 am
herinfernallady
Gort I think with price rises that is hard. My b.f hasn't even seen a doc in I don't know how long (his medicard is expired) and he pays heinous amounts and never gets a tax return
6:40 am

I don't know about the rat word. It rhymes with Rock singer David's last name. Trif has a thing for him.

I would dearly love the local councils down here to crack down on puppy farms then Animal lib wouldn't have to get volunteers to fork out donations to help the poor critters. It is so hard at the moment. The floods here and in Queensland and the wildlife it doesn't help when puppy farms do the wrong thing

is "working from home" in protest.
9:42 am
crosshair
why would it close? what happened yesterday?
9:43 am
MollyL
Really Eva. With all the people who abandoned their cars last night, you would think the Fed would get a clue.
9:43 am
EvaNadine
well, granted, our snowfall is nothing compared to what you get up there, crossy, but we got like 9 inches in my area. the roads didnt get properly pre-treated because it started as more of a rain, and because people were all ON the roads getting home, the gridlock that ensued caused mass chaos. people who left work at 4-5 didnt get home until past midnight.
9:43 am
EvaNadine
in response, we got a whopping 2-hour delay.
9:43 am
crosshair
good grief...9 inches..call out the army looool
9:44 am
crosshair
soryy..snort...
9:44 am
EvaNadine
i know, i know. but in this area, they just dont handle it well. they dont budget for the supplies or labor.
9:44 am
crosshair
but i can see where it might be a problem in some areas
9:45 am
EvaNadine
major highways were a total parking lot and people have abandoned their cars left and right.
9:45 am
EvaNadine
but hey, lets all go back to work!
9:45 am
crosshair
the govt never closes,they have to keep grabbing that tax money lol
9:46 am

yeah. who cares about the safety and well-bring of their employees.
9:46 am
crosshair
in our case 85% goes to winter road maintience lol
9:47 am
MollyL
Yeah, well people were not snorting when major highways were closed and they couldn't get home.
9:47 am
EvaNadine
we are lucky if we get plowed once. ecstatic if we get salted/sanded. but then, that melts the snow which ends up re-freezing into ice, and oops, no budget to take care of that!
9:47 am
crosshair
happens all the time here,i cannot count the times i had to crash in a place out of town due to road closures
9:48 am

have no choice here,if you drive around the barriers you get fined and your insurance becomes invalid
9:48 am
EvaNadine
roads werent "closed." they were just jam-paced full of drivers who couldnt get anywhere. people sat in their cars for hours.
9:48 am
MollyL
The point is, it doesn't happen all the time here and people panic and freak out.
9:48 am
MollyL
Nope. There were roads in Virginia that were closed.
9:49 am
crosshair
i can see that oilly,i am not dancing on peoples mysery here..take a breath dear.one persons normal is chaos elsewhere
9:49 am
EvaNadine
oh, i know some roads were closed. but im talking about the beltway, 66, GW parkway, etc. those were open, just useless.
9:49 am
MollyL
I had the same back and forth with my husband until he moved down here.
9:50 am
MollyL
Then he understood that Canadian rules don't apply here.
9:50 am
EvaNadine
DOT told people to get off the roads so they could treat them, but people COULDNT get off the roads -- they couldnt drive an inch.
fed gov shouldnt have sent people home early if the roads werent ready for them.
9:50 am

for instance i am sure an earthquake would have me pissing myself,but to locals in california they use it to stir the soup for lunch

i was up and dressed, ready to slip + slide my way to the Metro when hubby suggested i contact my manager (because as of a few days ago, i have a new manager) to see if i can work from home.
technically we arent allowed to, but apparently everyone is today.
9:52 am

That's part of the problem here. People are such work freaks that they won't stay home.
9:53 am

i would have LOVED to have stayed home. but we arent allowed. :(
9:53 am

work is highly overrated and the person that dies with the most money does not win:)

unique to around here are pepperoni rolls - supposedly developed as a meal for underground coal miners. Had never seen or heard of them until we moved here. You can get them in all sizes.

An fl 5/16 is f plus li 4/4 word HelenaB and hello there!
10:48 am
Minveryork
When I came onto this websi 4/4, I was st 4/5ned at how small the grid was.Didn't need to shake my fi 4/7 at my monkeys. I did not feel the need to sl 4/4 their throats. I also didn't feel the need to st5/14 on their heads. Hate to to4/4 my own horn, but I really didn't need the monkeys at all. I gl 4/7med onto Lickety's li 4/4 and finished mo4/5 of the grid.I'm saving my last word for later. Now here's a story of clues for you to si4/7 through. The doom and gl5/16 of this Winter is getting to me. I do know that another snow storm lo 4/5s ahead.We already have too much mo 5/12 snow on the ground. I can't even see one spot of so 4/4 on the ground.I even saw a mo5/14 in my house one day who was sick of the snow too. When I went outside 1 day,the cold weather st5/16 my eyes. My to 4/4 are frozen by the time I am done walking the dog. I must admit though,when the mo4/5 shines on the snow, it is pretty. My te4/4age nephew loves Winter & skiing in the snow. However, I know that I am not alo4/4 in my feelings about Winter.Husband hates Winter too. After every storm, he has to to 4/4 in the snow with the snow blower. Takes more than just a little to 4/4 to get rid of the snow.However,my hatred of Winter is a mo 4/5 point. Spring isn't coming anytime so4/4. When spring does get here though, that will li 4/7 my spirits. Hubby is being a lo5/12 and wants to use the computer. He drives me nu 4/5 with his addiction to Farmville. I hope you've se4/4 some more words with this story, or at least the easy on 4/4. Be back later.

Hello Babblers
7:32 pm
Nef
hi wht. How are you tonight?
7:33 pm
wht
Doing fine. It took me longer to dig out than to do the grid.
7:34 pm
wht
We had 10 inches or so. It took about 3 hours to dig out our driveway and our neighbors.
7:35 pm
jmcnrick
we had 4 really wet inches power lines and trees are everywhere
7:35 pm
Nef
nice of you to do your neighbors. Our last heavy snowstorm *we* waited to be rescued.
7:35 pm
wht
But if we keep getting snow like this, I don't know where we will put it.
7:35 pm
wht
Our neighbor is 92 and lives alone. There is no way he could dig out.
7:37 pm
jmcnrick
still nice of you to do it
7:37 pm
wht
About 8 years ago he offered to buy us a snow blower if we would keep his driveway clear. We insisted on paying half, and next thing we knew we had 6 families going in on the snowblower.
7:37 pm
Nef
thanks for helping him, wht. At the time; my dtr. had had carpel tunnel surgery 3 days before, DH was having some balance problems and I've had a bum hip for 6 months.
7:37 pm
jmcnrick
very cool and green too
7:38 pm

It is one of the best things we have done.

7:40 pm
jmcnrick
go harry go!
7:40 pm
wht
But now the snow pile at the end of our driveway is maybe 10 feet tall and the snowblower can barely get the snow over it.
7:40 pm
Nef
it seems as though everyone here has their own humungous 24 inch gas-guzzling snow blower. We don't for 2 reasons: the environment; and I can't start or control the darn things
7:40 pm
HarryHood
shovellng was horrible today - have to throw the snow over these 9 foot towers
7:40 pm
