I was looking at a "world" bird book yesterday and was thrilled to see the brilliant birds of Australia. I get excited about our little birds here, but there it is spectacular, the array
3:18 am
lynxxx
How are you Ruby - and I suppose that depends on your husband, how is the recovery coming along?
3:18 am
lynxxx
Really Ruby, the birds I see of the USA seem more 'brilliant".
3:19 am
rubyfoo
he is somewhat better, has gained 2 lbs, is trying to push himself, but then overdoes it and gets exhausted. And he is nasty again. Oh well.....
3:19 am
rubyfoo
the book is upstairs, but I will make a list
3:19 am
rubyfoo
And here in France, I have identified 20 different ones from the US
3:19 am
rubyfoo
I always kept a "life list"
3:20 am
lynxxx
Sad that you can guage his wellness by his nastiness - but good that he finally seems to be getting better
3:20 am
rubyfoo
I agree and just walk away
3:21 am
lynxxx
A life list - this is something you have always kept? what else is in it?
3:21 am
rubyfoo
just birds, hahah
3:22 am
lynxxx
A closet twitcher!
3:24 am
rubyfoo
I've always been a "passive birdwatcher", as it is too hard to see them in the wild. I have kept a feeder right outside the window on the nearest tree and have been able to identify birds whilst they're eating
3:24 am
lynxxx
Do you draw/paint them as well?
3:25 am
rubyfoo
I used to draw owls, but only from photographs, to sell, when I was exhibiting. I only have one of the drawings left
3:40 am
lynxxx
I am getting worse at this game _ I can never get the last quarter lately. Giving up for tonight - Bye Ruby - have a good day
3:42 am
rubyfoo
bye ruby. I never finish and ow, rarely go back after my first attack
3:42 am
rubyfoo
if I get to half and nbt, I am happy enough
3:43 am
rbud
I have a small birdfeeder with suction cups that has been on the outside of the glass on my kitchen window for years, can really see them up close. And a suet cage on the window frame for the woodpeckers.
3:43 am
rbud
(just happened to wander in, lol)
3:44 am
rubyfoo
ahah! another passive birdwatcher! What I find funny, in the bird guides, is the phonetic description of their voices
3:44 am
rubyfoo
who can hear that?
3:46 am
rubyfoo
yay, half!
3:46 am
rubyfoo
but I would have though ma5/16 would have been capitalized
3:47 am
rubyfoo
for nbt, do you have any e's?
3:47 am
rbud
haha, would rather go to an online bird guide and hear them
3:47 am
rubyfoo
nm, got one!
3:47 am
rubyfoo
that's a good idea, never though of that
3:47 am
rbud

Lessons learned from a tough time in my life. How it's important to not take anything for granted and to appreciate even the little things in life.
5:56 am
TheLegend

Right. CA wasn't my thing either.
6:02 am
TheLegend
i lived there for 9 years...didnt realize how little i liked CA until i moved back here
6:03 am

San Fernando Valley - Woodland Hills

silly putty!
7:19 am
FMitch
Not such a fun grid today, I swear I have an extra 3 grey hairs as a result!
7:19 am
MollyL
Morning all. Sprite, great stuff about Silly Putty. I am bummed that you can no longer copy the comics onto it. That was great fun, copying the images then distorting them.
7:19 am
carleekat
oh no..if fm didnt like this grid
7:19 am
sprite
argh that sounds really bad, FM!
7:20 am
sprite
Molly, indeed :)
Hi carlee.
7:20 am
72 Temple Owl
can"t read your icon sprite
7:20 am
carleekat
silly putty changed a long time ago..doesnt smell the same as it used to
7:20 am
carleekat
hi sprite...molls
7:20 am
MollyL
Well, apparently you can't copy the comics due to a change in the inking process, not the putty.
7:21 am
FMitch
Hi carlee and Molly
7:21 am
sprite
it is mirrored print, TOwl, so I am not surprised
7:22 am
carleekat
i bought for my kidss.and the smell was not right..and diff colours too..ugh... i liked the plain pink
7:22 am
FMitch
carlee usually when I hate a grid you find them easy and visa versa :)
7:22 am
MollyL
I must stop my eyes from trying to make "mayor" work.
7:22 am
sprite

7:22 am
72 Temple Owl

i bought cinnamon bread to use in pumplin breaf pudding, but now i don't ant to make it and am looking for another recipe. i only ever had one bread pudding i liked, that was apple
7:30 am
hurshy
apple and cinnamon do go well together. have you tried any of the myriad recipe websites?
7:31 am
FMitch
pumplin breaf - you must have caught my typo flu :)
7:31 am
72 Temple Owl
yes. funny thing , i don't even likebread pudding
7:32 am
72 Temple Owl
apple bread pudding cake - you actually put bread into it
7:32 am
hurshy
maybe you should make cinnamon croutons instead and serve them with something soft, like regular pudding, or mousse
7:32 am
gramma
G'mornin' all. Came on just in time for bread pudding. Yum! Paula Dean had a segment of her show on that and boy oh boy was it good. Of course it was loaded with chocolate.

uusue2
morning, all!
7:35 am

if it's just maple extract that you don't have, why not leave it out? so what if it doesn't tasty maply - it might be good anyway.

Mom, I didnt see you at all...did you have your Quilting Bee?
8:23 am
Mom
me too, I was gone most of the day, was home for just a few minutes and Shay called and they wanted to come over and then Alex called and said he was coming up. Those two are one of the things that I would miss babble for :-)
8:23 am
Mom
it was quilting yesterday and then a little crocheting

8:25 am
Mom
FIVE and I have known one another for years (I use to date her brother) and we met up again 5 years ago at quilting
8:25 am
Mom
she usually doesn't talk and she was mostly on in the evenings
8:26 am
Anniebrook
Mom, I will look for her...then you have a history with FIVE...that makes it interesting
8:27 am
Mom
it was so good to see her at quilting. I looked at her and thought shie
8:27 am
Mom
*she's a Gough but couldn't remember which one, she is one of 12 children
8:28 am
Mom
and she looked at me and thought, she's a Sellmeyer, she dated my brother
8:28 am
Anniebrook
My father was one of 12 children..cannot imagine going through childbirth 12 times
8:29 am

she teases me that I "dodged the bullet", her brother married and has 11 children

8:35 am
Anniebrook
You still have time but I would start soon
8:35 am
Mom
The summer clothes should be coming out about now
8:36 am
Anniebrook
Usually around the middle of March in time for Easter shopping
8:37 am
Mom
and Easter is so late this year
8:38 am
Anniebrook
When is Easter?
8:39 am
Anniebrook
That is kind of late..Passover starts the eve of Apr. 18 which is about right but it is a different date every yer
8:40 am
Mom
yes, a different day, at least this year there shouldn't be snow
8:40 am
Anniebrook
hurray for that!
8:41 am
Mom
Amen! I think of all this rain we have had, if it had been snow it would be up to the windows
8:41 am

as usual the words that start with a vowel are giving me trouble...for example the in's

The other Moms (there were three as both parents are remarried) wore long dresses. I got a knee length one because long dresses are not my thing. Everyone looked nice and it turned out fine.
8:46 am
MollyL
I had to look for a while though. Lots of the "Mother" dresses are frumpy.
8:46 am
Mom
the mother of the bride is also wearing a street length dress as is the bride
8:47 am

a lot of the ones we looked at last night looked like something a slut would wear

whoever regulates gas prices controls the world economy. i would love to know who that is. opec is one possibility but the u.s. oil men are not innocent here. they have the nation by the throat. everything needs to be transported and til we go to electric cars and trucks we are slaves to oil and gas. very sad indeed.
10:12 am
dcseain
we don't have towns :) It's matter for the Hu4er ones, that a family of that name used to live on the land the roads run through. And oxen (oxon locally) were BIG business back when.
10:12 am
hootowl
even better here. start a street, build ans apartment complex - continue on the other side
10:12 am
dcseain
oh, that type of thing is common here, especilaly in Baltimore. Annoying, but common.
10:12 am
mkg
but obama doesnt control gas prices. and i think it is complex. i do know i was told kissinger told the arab opec nations to raise prices back in the 70s because he felt the world would pay whatever they had to. weird man indeed.
10:13 am

I used to only be in Herndon, VA (it's a town) if i were lost. I now live next to it. Navigating starting making more sense once i learned that Herndon Pkwy is a circle that never leaves the town, and that Baron Cameron Ave>Elden St>Centreville Rd is one piece of pavement, as is Sunset Hills Rd>Spring St :)

mkg,i am in the fuel business and could blind you with science and the various U.S and canadian govts that passed the buck and allowed this to happen.but it is a combination of seemingly innocent factors that have now converged and put us in the current position

Parts of Philly can be hard to navigate. The parts i'm in mostly are generally a grid.

i remember back in 1956 my family came to DC to tour. my father said then that he was shocked that there were such poor to none signs to advise you where to go. we were constantly lost. but back then you could drive and park right near each sight. what a different world it was in the 50s. all along the mall in DC were quanset huts from WW2 still upl.

Good grief JBV!

The South sucks in the summer, but rocks in the winter, I have to say!

they came to repair the furnace, stid, but had to ORDER the parts which took 2 days! and then it was just a temporary repair -t he system is ancient (although I hate saying that, it's still 25 years younger than me!)
4:16 pm
JBV
well it was a very nice thing my brother-in-law did, which was to drive almost 2 hours to be here on the day of the installation so he could deal with the tech guys, he speaks their language
4:16 pm
stidmama
oh man... that's rough. I am starting to think about needing to replace our furnace, which is 11 (same age as the house) -- I would like something a lot more efficient, especially with the increasing price of propane.

11:22 pm
stidmama
LOL does that answer you well enough cathy? *sigh* NOT having a happy mama moment.
11:22 pm
cathy22w
i'll exchange for one teenager... added bonus is that he, apparently, knows everything
11:22 pm
stidmama
oooh! NEVER heard of a teen who knows everything! roflmao
11:23 pm
cathy22w
lol....he's 17, and, apparently, I should be treating him his age

other than that, how are you? I am trying to refocus on my presentation that is due Tuesday after a lovely taco supper
11:24 pm
cathy22w
ooh...tacos. love chicken ones. what presentation?
11:24 pm
stidmama
*grin* you let him know that over here, 17 is very much still a minor, and I can insist he attend school, do his chores AND wash behind his ears...
11:24 pm

for my master's degree. Presenting the review of the literature that was part of this last quarter's work. I am getting close to being done.
11:25 pm

drat. just realized that only one of the kids has a passport. you'll have to take the elder. Sorry....

well that'll be a relief, to be done with that.
11:26 pm

oh, I don't know scranton - haven't been to PA in over 30 years. But what I remember of that area was lovely rolling hills.
11:28 pm
cathy22w
yeah...not far from the appalachian trail, which i was very fond of.
11:28 pm
stidmama
LOVED the trail. Lived in VA 7 years and we hiked a bit of it (I was VERY young though, and STILL won't go "camping" LOL)
11:29 pm
cathy22w
lol...my son and i hiked the entire maryland section once...sounds grand, but it was only 42 miles, but such an excellent experience.
11:30 pm
stidmama
LOL the younger stidkid says he will GLADLY trade in the old-model elder sibling for a new one... he'll even throw in some of his favorite pretzel treats!
11:30 pm
cathy22w
sounds like your camping experience wasn't too pleasant!
11:30 pm
stidmama
42 miles UP and down is a bit more challenging, though
11:31 pm
cathy22w
i remember, whilst walking it, going through a country park and seeing a soda machine was like manna from heaven. lol
11:31 pm
stidmama
well, forced-marches with a backpack aren't my idea of relaxing... nor was going days and days without a shower!
11:32 pm
cathy22w
yeah, i hear you with that...although i was very resourceful. sent the kid looking for water, whilst i, umm... 'cooked'. lol

Sorry -- my internet seemed to take a breather or something.

oh jill! I was afraid I was going to miss you!

what lovely forsythia! Tom and I walked the yard this afternoon, and the plum is covered in buds, and the quince have little green tips already... and some of the tulips I was sure had died are up! But not budding yet.
11:36 pm
stidmama
sweet dreams cathy -- have a lovely week!
11:37 pm
jillibus
g'night cathy -- hubby and I used to drive through Scranton often on our way to dogs shows long ago.
11:38 pm
jillibus
stid, I think all of us will give a big sigh of relief when you are finally through with this ordeal!
11:39 pm
stidmama
no kidding! I have really leaned on all my good babble friends to get me through this ordeal. I do not think I would have made it to this point without you-all.

jill -- speaking of dogs... lucky seems sensitive on his hindquarters to the brush and rake I have to groom him with -- the skin seems sensitive, not the joint. Any ideas for how to groom him when he blows his coat (right now) without making him feel he's being tortured?
11:41 pm
jillibus
there's a rubber sort of mitt with bumps on it which might do the job.
11:43 pm
stidmama
thanks jill, I will look for one. He looks a bit disreputable at the moment, but I just feel awful insisting. Tried this afternoon and only got in 5 swipes before he was running away from me. And I was being as gentle as I could. *sad mama look*
11:44 pm
jillibus
Aww -- poor Lucky, and poor you!
11:45 pm
stidmama
yeah. I am a BAD doggy-mama. We have had issues in years past, but it seems particularly troublesome for him this year.
11:45 pm
stidmama
Meantime, Mother's puppy is growing SO FAST!
11:46 pm
stidmama
are you doing okay these days jill? I miss seeing you online every day.

I'm feeling guilty today. The neighbourhood cat< Max, a beautiful golden Burmese, came for a visit this afternoon because I had left the bedroom door to the deck open for fresh air -- it was sunny and warm. He spends most of his days outside because his person has 3 dogs, and Max is so friendly and in need of affection, I think. Anyway I enjoyed his company as he roamed around the house, and I spent some time sitting on the deck with him on my lap, purring and snuggling. The the sun went in and I had to remember that he isn't my cat. I went in the dinette door and kept him outside, then he jumped up and wailed, looking so hurt that I hadn't let him back in. I feel really bad about it.
11:50 pm
jillibus
Oh yes -- tell me about your mother's pup -- that was a big surprise!
11:50 pm
stidmama
oh jill (((gentle hugs))) I DO know how that feels. He'll be okay.
11:51 pm
jillibus
I just love that darned cat.
11:51 pm
stidmama
Well, his name is Murphy (which actually is an old family name of Mother's), he is a yellow lab (but right now mostly white), and he sleeps a lot.
11:51 pm
stidmama
you're an old softie, you know?
11:52 pm
jillibus
What prompted the acquisition of Murphy?
11:53 pm
stidmama
I am not sure, jill -- I am not entirely sure it was a GOOD idea, but have to admit that in the week they have had him he has really captured their hearts.
11:53 pm
jillibus
Of course he has!
11:54 pm
stidmama
:-D and ours, of course.
11:54 pm
jillibus
It will mean a bit less freedom to take of on lengthy travels, unless they know of a really good house-sitter or boarding kennel -- or you get to keep him when they're away...
11:54 pm
stidmama
lucky is jealous enough that some days when I come back from Mother's I need to shower before he calms down.
11:55 pm
stidmama
He isn't allowed in my parents' house because he is so big.
11:55 pm
stidmama
Well, we can house-sit, or the boys can. BUT I think they won't be traveling any more.
11:56 pm
stidmama
They also have the option to have him vacation with the people who bred him -- they are a lot like you, from the descriptions I have heard. Very dedicated to the proper care of their animals, and insistent that owners treat them right.
11:56 pm
jillibus
Well, if Murphy is a lab he'll get to be Lucky's size, won't he? And I guess your dad will be busy wiping the floor on muddy days...?
11:57 pm
stidmama
anyway, I know that if I stay until flip, I won't get the next piece done on my presentation. I must away...
11:57 pm
stidmama
and yes, he'll be a big fellow once he is grown. that is my concern. He might get to be too much for them. If that happens, he has a home with us. What's another horse or two? LOL
11:57 pm
jillibus
Btw, I do hope you can do a video of your presentation!
11:58 pm
stidmama
By then, I hope to have a fence in the back for them. And I will try to remember to get the video, but I am not sure how that will go.
11:58 pm
jillibus
I hope they're going to take him to obedience training.
11:59 pm
jillibus
They have puppy classes now.
11:59 pm
stidmama
(((Jill))) Everyone sends their love. I am hoping to escape to see you this summer. Just me. We can do "girly things" and eat lovely food and drink yummy wine.
11:59 pm
stidmama
oh yes, that is definitely in the plan.
11:59 pm
stidmama
gotta run. *poof*
12:00 am

Good -- and bye for now -- good to have a bit of a chat for a change.
