1:11 am
mrpresident
jilli, the threats are too great and causing me unbelievable stress... I have to move away from it or will have heart failure

1:49 am

2:36 am
Douglas
You reminded me a Dr. Seuss quote "If you never did you should. These things are fun and fun is good"
2:38 am
jillibus
Both my son and I were the wrong generation for Dr Seuss -- well, at least he got to read them to HIS kids, but I never did. I'll have to catch up -- I know he was wonderful.
2:40 am
Douglas
going to try and sleep again...good night jilli
2:42 am

am on my holiday address... have a computer here, no Expert of course, so pls forgive any booboos
3:01 am
jillibus
glad you were able to make it at all -- are you having a nice holiday?
3:02 am
sprite
so far it is lovely. We are house-sitting for friends and the house is soooo nice! And close to another friend. She was here yesterday, will come back today an we will go out for dinner... and tomorrow to a spa/sauna.
3:02 am
sprite
then saturday my love and I go back home to pick up our kids from summer camp, and then back here :)
3:02 am
jillibus
sounds great! How far is it from home?
3:03 am
sprite
far for dutch people, close by for most of you. About a 3 hour's drive.
3:04 am
jillibus
but a different ambience, I bet
3:04 am
jillibus
good weather?
3:04 am
sprite
yes, quite different. We live close to the coast, and this is close to germany, more of a land climate.
3:06 am
sprite
weather is off and on, sunny now, very rainy yesterday. But we will enjoy ourselves either way.My love and terra went canoeing yesterday, not minding the weather, and had a great time.\
3:06 am
jillibus
btw, if you're hoping to see rubyfoo here, there was a message from (I think) une to say she had been talking to her and she had been having technical problems but would be back asap
3:06 am
sprite
oh ok, very frustrating for her :(
3:07 am
jillibus
well, canoeing=water -- a lake maybe? A river?
3:07 am
sprite
lol yes, some lakes (not big, but nothing here is big except the IJsselmeer), lots of canals, some tiny rivers.
3:08 am
jillibus
I can just picture Terra sitting in a canoe!
3:08 am
sprite
and the waters along farmland... don't know the english word and don't have dictionary here.
3:08 am
jwr
jilli what would you like for a feast in the pb?
3:09 am
jillibus
irrigation?
3:09 am
sprite
let me see if I can find it on the internet\
3:09 am
jillibus
uh oh -- what did I say?
3:09 am
sprite
I mean ditch
3:10 am
sprite
jilli, you and me both... the boat my love loves to paddle
3:10 am
jillibus
oh yes, I remember -- well, sprite and I will enjoy each other's company there, although she added an ing so it may not count.
3:11 am
jillibus
oh yes, ditch -- but I don't think you'd go boating in a ditch
3:11 am
sprite
so... lots of ditches here of course. And yes, we go boating there. A ca5 doesn't need much water after all.
3:12 am
jwr
don't mind me -- busy at work -- just happened to glance over a split second after I'd put the word in. Glad you have company. Hi all and check in later. *poof*
3:12 am

hi and bye jwr
3:12 am

well, I really must head for bed now, so really goodnight/morning, happy babbling, and really *poof

herinfernallady
Hi
4:35 am
sprite
hey lady :) Was just thinking of you, am eating cold pizza for breakfast
4:35 am
herinfernallady
It took me 20 min to formulate a response to my boy
4:36 am
sprite
about what?
4:37 am
herinfernallady
Ok Watching this show: ok so I am watching The Block (TV reno store) Ok so you donate your stuff to the Salvos then on the Block they took it for free to the markets to sell. Did 100% of that money then go back to the community or was it eaten in admin costs.
4:37 am
herinfernallady
Because I donate to these stores and hope my items then are sold at a price someone that can't afford it can have something nice.
4:40 am
sprite
you kind of lost me, hun
4:41 am
herinfernallady
OK THERE IS this second hand opshop called Salvation Army they help poor people
4:41 am
sprite
yes and you donate stuff to them?
4:42 am
herinfernallady
On this show the contestants went to one of these stores and then took items to a market for sale. My concern is did 100% of that money go back to the charity
4:42 am
mrpresident
well, everything just went to hell in a handbasket
4:42 am
herinfernallady
MR PRes You ok?
4:43 am
sprite
don't know, lady, it should, but I think not
4:43 am
sprite
wazzup mrP?
4:43 am
herinfernallady
Some charities do this then it get's eaten up in admin costs
4:45 am
herinfernallady
Mr P you ok
4:45 am
mrpresident
no, not ok... i just need to get some perspective... and isn't happening tonight
4:45 am
mrpresident
:( tonight
4:45 am
mrpresident
but, am here... going to do babble and get over myself :)
4:45 am
herinfernallady
I m on FB if you needs
4:45 am
sprite
more patience needed, mrP? Waiting sucks...
4:46 am
mrpresident
sprite, haven't got to the bloody post office!! weather is treacherous!! will go tomorrow
4:46 am
mrpresident
i know sprite, i hate it... but thankfully my friends are understanding and my family patient
4:46 am
mrpresident
although, sometimes, my family are just not helpful
4:46 am
herinfernallady
Mr Pres hun whatr is wrong
4:47 am
sprite
mrP, please hun, take your time. ALL the time. Post office should be last on your list of priorities.
4:47 am
sprite
and babble is good diversion if you have to wait ;)
4:47 am
mrpresident
thanks sprite... and i will get there.
4:48 am
sprite
so... what is it you are waiting for that is not going to happen tonight?
4:48 am
mrpresident
i had a 13 year old swearing tonight cause he didn't get his 'allotted' time on my xbox...
4:49 am
herinfernallady
Well then he gets Nothing on said xbox for a month. Nanny lock it on him
4:49 am
mrpresident
what isn't happening.... we are not getting a break.
4:49 am
sprite
lol adolescence is such a beautiful time of life.... NOT
4:49 am
mrpresident
and it wasn't MY 13 year old
4:49 am
mrpresident
i told him to get out of my house
4:49 am
sprite
argh I know about not getting a break. That sucks too.
4:50 am
mrpresident
his mum was fine with it all... accepted the situation... but is so upsetting
4:50 am
sprite
very good, mrP. The nerve, grin. Back to parents with the message their education lacks.
4:51 am
herinfernallady
Well good for you kicking the kid out and his mother should be emboarressed
4:51 am
mrpresident
indeed! the nerve! temper tantrum... unrefined child
4:51 am
mrpresident
but, luv him anyway
4:51 am
mrpresident
she was infern, and we are fine... he needs to understand to shut the hell up
4:51 am
sprite
don't let it get to you, mrP. Many kids these days aren't taught to handle limits and disappointments. Parents often think they 'protect' them from such unpleasant experiences. Not realising that at some point in life kids must learn... and better as kids than as adults.
4:52 am
herinfernallady
Kids are mouthy at that age.
4:52 am
sprite
for this boy, I suggest brushing out mouth with green soap :)
4:52 am
mrpresident
well, his mum got a little bit (tiny bit) of a shock to his behaviour... tried to tell me that he did it for a good reason, and I said 'NO!'... then it all was ok.
4:52 am
herinfernallady
BUT I never swore at my mum or dad. I was a little s##$ though. Even if I was at my aunts house and now my parents I still ask for the food.
4:53 am
mrpresident
my children would never swear at me that way!
And, he doesn't swear at his mother that way... so why should I get it??
4:54 am
herinfernallady
And you did the right thing
4:54 am
sprite
teaching your kids limits, politeness and the awareness that life isn't about pleasing them, but about living it the best you can, is the best gift parents can bestow on their children.
4:54 am
sprite
did you ask him: "And with THAT mouth you kiss your mother???"
4:55 am
mrpresident
he is all about being pleased... his mother doesn't set limits. but she is my friend and we have our limits. he is a single child with no male influence... there is no way he would talk like that if he had the right mentors
4:55 am
mrpresident
no sprite, I told him to 'get out of my house now!'
4:56 am
herinfernallady
That is no excuse Mr P. None what so ever
4:56 am
mrpresident
it is my xbox... and if he has issue with my son, he should take it up with him... not swear at me
4:56 am
sprite
hehehe not bad, mrP.
In Dutch we tell children like that: "Your will stands behind the door."
4:57 am
mrpresident
however, she is a great mother!! I respect her and her decisions... just luv her, however, it didn't go well tonight
4:57 am
mrpresident
indeed sprite! leave it outside and come in here with respect
4:58 am
sprite
she is not a great mother. She is a loving mother, perhaps, but not one that sets limits. And mothers HAVE to set limits if they want their children to live a happy life.
4:58 am
sprite
a great mother is willing to make unpopular decisions and demands.

herinfernallady

5:01 am
mrpresident
tonight has been beyond a joke!! and the whole day actually. tomorrow will be joyous and happy and great
5:02 am
mrpresident
thanks girls!! luv to you!
5:03 am
sprite
well sweetie, as a great mom you know to never let a child ruin your day. And you did the right thing, setting a clear limit and informing the mum and not letting her get away with evasions. So be proud of you and let's have a good time right now ;)
5:03 am
mrpresident
even my dad had a go at me today.... :( wow. but, live and learn
5:04 am
herinfernallady
Dad's do that as you will always be his little princess
5:04 am
sprite
*grins* parents know how to pull our strings because they are the ones that put them there in the first place.
5:04 am
mrpresident
i am here to be happy and play! and chat with my mates!
hope this one is a reasonable grid! unlike yesterdays B's!! urgh!
5:05 am
herinfernallady
Hopefully we are well enough to go Grans tomorrow night
5:05 am
sprite
my stomach is hurting like hell since I learned my mother is very ill and in hospital. Don't know why, don't feel sadness, but still... my tummy hurts.
5:05 am
mrpresident
it is sad sprite!! so sorry... keep the stress down
5:05 am
sprite
as the therapist would say... my tummy hurts because I cannot feel my emotions, lol
5:06 am
mrpresident
no, my tummy hurts when I am in turmoil
5:06 am
sprite
mrP, all I am feeling is it would be perfectly fine if she died now. Doesn't that make me an awful person!
5:07 am
mrpresident
no, it makes sense... she has lived her full life and doesn't need to suffer anymore
5:07 am
herinfernallady
Camimile tea all round needed
5:08 am
herinfernallady
NO it doesn't make you an aweful person Sprite It makes you honest and most people don't have that. You do not nor should you ever have to love or feel compassion towards anyone that has ever badly and unforgivenly hurt you
5:08 am
sprite
she has lived her life for herself alone and I don't need her to make me suffer anymore, more like. Bad bad sprite!
5:09 am
herinfernallady
No Sprite not bad at all
5:09 am
sprite
lol lady, great idea. I used to make my own herbal mix with camomile, nettles and liquorice root.
5:09 am
herinfernallady
And I am serious about what I said
5:10 am
sprite
my mother has gone out of her way to hurt me. I spent my youth taking care of her needs and I just don't want to do it anymore. Thanks lady *hug*
5:11 am
herinfernallady
Seriously my ex's mother was a right bitchnik and he cut her out. Toxic people creat toxic situations. You are well within your rights not not have that compassion. You sure as heck can feel feelings though
5:12 am
sprite
so, mrP... this grid is fun. Not so hard. And even the Cs are friendly, because I had them finished before I stopped to look.
5:17 am
mrpresident
compassion is important... nothing else matters IMHO
5:17 am
mrpresident
what!! c's are good??? I see an F and C..... we are close to the edge! LOL
5:17 am
sprite
I can feel compassion for her, but it is the kind of compassion I can feel for everyone.
5:17 am
herinfernallady
Mr RPes it isn't to me when they show you none back
5:18 am
sprite
nah, half is missing, lol mrP
5:18 am
mrpresident
indeed sprite... i understand that compassion
5:19 am
mrpresident
contempt hurts infern... compassion hurts more!
5:19 am
sprite
I hope she doesn't have to suffer and that she has adequate help. I don't feel the urge to go to her and be part of that help.
5:20 am
mrpresident
sprite, don't go... she has all she needs :)
5:21 am
mrpresident
i have found that WANT and NEED are very different animals
5:21 am
herinfernallady
True Sprite. You can always write a letter even for your self about this if it helps
5:22 am
mrpresident
i wrote a letter to my mother... ready to send... never sent it.
my father told me some things that curled my hair!! so couldn't send it.
and am ok with that... at least I wrote down my feelings
5:22 am
sprite
I have given myself a holiday from everything, lady, now that I am on vacation. I have decided to talk stuff over with my therapist once I am back. Until then... well, let the tummy hurt, I am great at dissociating ;)
5:23 am
mrpresident
on ya sprite! just enjoy the holiday!!
5:23 am
herinfernallady
sniff
5:25 am
sprite
exactly! Last year's holiday, we spent in anxiety about my love having possibly lung cancer. Now this year's, I refuse to let spoil by my mother. Who is ill now because she refuses to take her medication or food. Food that gets delivered to her warm every day.
5:26 am
mrpresident
she wants to die?? wow
5:27 am
sprite
no she wants to be taken care of, to be the center of dramas.
5:28 am
mrpresident
well, let's see how that works out for her!
5:28 am
sprite
always been that way. First 18 years of my life I tried to keep her from suiciding... then I finally stopped... and she still lives.
5:29 am
mrpresident
wow sprite! what a mole!
5:31 am
sprite
yeah, lol... last time was when she told me she would go and jump in front of a train. And I said ok, but go then, NOW. I am even willing to look up a good train for you.
After that, she knew she couldn't blackmail me anymore.
So now I let the hospital decide whether she is able to take care of herself or not.
5:32 am
sprite
lots of sick puppies in the world, aren't there?
Anyway, now I look out of the window here and I see thousands of flowers. My dear Terra is on my feet. My love is riding a bike through the neighbourhood here. And we are happy people. What more can one ask for?
5:33 am
mrpresident
wow sprite! what a call! and you picked her out well
5:33 am
mrpresident
good on you sprite!
5:33 am
mrpresident
when we are there, will share the same good news too!! :))
5:34 am
sprite
everybody has his or her limit, I think.
5:34 am
sprite
yay for good news :D
5:37 am
mrpresident
brb... kids need beddie bye hugs and 'wash your teeth' encouragement!! :)) won't be long
5:37 am
sprite
well you know, mrP... when my body hurts as it does every day, and things go bad, and life seems to suck, I can feel awful.
But when I stop and count my blessings, I can see I am truly blessed. Wouldn't want to trade places with either parent for a sec.
5:37 am
sprite
lol bye for now mrP, and hug them from me.
5:38 am
gran
Is there an extra re 4/5 in Lickety's list
5:39 am
sprite
hello gran, cannot tell you, haven't finished Rs yet. But as far as I can see, this is not a grid that leads to extra words in Lickety's list.
5:40 am
gran
What is the lotal for today 278 or 279
5:40 am
sprite
have you compared the total amount of words? Babble pro says 279 in total.
5:43 am
gran
Sorry it was re 5/12 I was missing
5:47 am

hi carlee :)

michelleo
:) i'm new, having much of a clue what's going on yet
5:53 am
michelleo
haven't*
5:53 am
carleekat
well mich..the help is actually a useful help to get you started
5:54 am
herinfernallady
Hi Carlee and Mich
5:54 am
carleekat
and welcome to the madness called babble
5:54 am
michelleo
thanks carlee:)
5:55 am
carleekat
and i am going to eat my words all..i know it..but today..i am gld for a big grid... will give me something other than the heat to focus on...
5:55 am
sprite
welcome to the game. You can find a lot of info in the Help section (link at top of this page) and in Angelsong's Help Page (link under Friends of Babble)
5:55 am
herinfernallady
I am sorry if I appear rude I am not really thinking tonigh
5:55 am
sprite
it is a nice one, carlee. Enough of a bite to make it interesting, but not too hard.
5:55 am
sprite
you are not rude at all, lady, don't worry
5:55 am
carleekat
then when we start throwing letter/ number combinations around....its lickety's clues we are using...another link below the grid
5:56 am
carleekat
its ok herin..i am going to be making typos galore today...its not even 7 am and with humidity feels like 40 C
5:57 am
michelleo
going to have a look at help and the rankings too, see what i'm up against here ;)
5:57 am
sprite
true. Basically, when we say something like ac4/5, it means there is a word, valid in this grid, that starts with ac, is 4 letters long in total, and worth 5 points.
5:57 am
carleekat
dont worry about rankings... they are just a confusing jumble of stats....i cant remember last tiem i looked
5:58 am
sprite
letters have to touch and per word can only used once... be nice in chat... and try not to post too many words from the grid, lol. That is about all, right?
5:59 am
carleekat
there we go..nbt/nbs in 28
5:59 am
sprite
babble isn't a competitive game, michelleo, we compete mostly with ourselves. Grid is there for 24 hours. Lots of people finish = find all words. Lots of people just find a part. We try and help eachother without giving words away.
5:59 am
sprite
nice carlee
5:59 am
michelleo
ahh i see
6:00 am
michelleo
i usually play letterblox it's extremely competetive over there
6:00 am
carleekat
unless u are me....i often ( but sprite/ herin can likely attest not of late ) drop words in chat...
6:00 am
sprite
yes, that is very different from babble.
6:00 am
herinfernallady
We don't bite
6:00 am
michelleo
this seems a much more civilized kind of crowd :)
6:00 am
carleekat

babble is a very friendly community for sure
6:01 am

6:07 am
carleekat

6:07 am
herinfernallady
I read a tweet the other day that said '' Saying you don't have a FB account is like saying you don't have a tv''
6:07 am

6:12 am
sprite
no way you could know, actually! Yes it is.
You can find it on the Lickety page, and if you are pro, it is on the babble site too.
6:13 am
carleekat
that is today's grid...you can leave and come back...any time...your words will still be here
6:13 am

If I just pick up bits and peices I am not being rude

MollyL
Did you want a clue City?
6:30 am
carleekat
oh i can just tell u all?

An artists paintings are pr8 to a small group before the official opening
6:32 am
uusue2
checked my favorite site: http://www.informationisbeautiful.net/
play/snake-oil-supplements/ - evidence for cranberry juice is slight, if any, and i have tried it in the past with no effect
6:32 am
michelleo
ok so there was one more word there, but thats definitely all there is!
6:32 am
carleekat
or u can buy a dvd previously viewed....

6:34 am
uusue2
didn't have a lawyer, just her dad there, lied and contradicted herself all over the place
6:34 am
uusue2
the lawyer really tied her into knots

Sue you could always make Cosmopolitians
6:34 am

nice...good for her ie good for your son..
6:35 am
carleekat
as we expected
6:35 am
MollyL
Good news Sue. This sounds like it is going just as it should. Nice to see "the little girl who cried wolf" getting caught.
6:35 am
uusue2
however she did accuse my son of multiple crimes (giving her alcohol and drugs, beating her), none of which he is guilty of, but the lawyer wants to keep the deposition out of the hands of the states attorney
6:36 am
City 17 dweller
(hurshy is lying, it does not wear off)
6:36 am
herinfernallady
Ok I am going

6:37 am
uusue2
and there is a group of court watchers that stand up for battered women who may scream bloody murder if an accused batterer is not prosecuted (even though he is innocent) so he is not out of the woods yet
6:38 am

6:38 am

6:47 am
carleekat
yeesh..am watching videos on you tube that police are currently using for an investigation
6:51 am
MollyL
Kind of depressing fare Carlee.
6:53 am
carleekat
there was a group of teens from london that went to a local beach by bus...( 1000 of them) and the party on the beach got a little out of hand...
6:53 am
MollyL
Oh, and off to the PB for me. I will commence rustling up some breakfast in there.
6:54 am
carleekat
there are 5 vids from the ride on the busses police are using to identify
6:55 am
MollyL
Way back in the day, when I was considering writing a thesis, it was going to be on crowd behavior.
6:56 am
carleekat
that..would be realy interesting...
7:04 am
MollyL
It's frightening the way people will behave in a crowd, ways in which they would never behave otherwise. There is another theory similar to that going around psychological circles about internet behavior.
7:07 am
carleekat
the stuff going on in dorms these days... insane...
7:07 am
carleekat
and it all gets video'd and uploaded to the net...
7:08 am
carleekat
i'd let me kids stay in same sex dorm... or no dorm...
7:08 am
MollyL
From what I've read, a lot of parents feel the same way.
7:18 am
carleekat
mob mentality...
7:21 am
jmcnrick
so you would find a same sex apartment building/
7:21 am
carleekat
no.i said same sex dorm..or no dorm...( off campus )
7:22 am
jmcnrick
that is my point the dorms today are like apartments with suites of rooms and one bathroom and the same sex stays in the suite
7:22 am
jmcnrick
exactly what you would find in an apartment building off campus
7:23 am
carleekat
not all...they have same sex dorm..all women in whole building..all men in one building ( up here anyway)
7:23 am
jmcnrick
btw studies show that boys that stay in co-d dorms do better in school while girls do better in same sex dorms
7:23 am
carleekat
in an apartment..u have 1 -3 roomates...usually same sex...not 6 or 8...
7:24 am
carleekat
i could see that in my own kids jmc
7:24 am
carleekat
my son...no issue...

10:29 am
jmcnrick
still very cool dorens i can't read on the tredmill at all
10:30 am

tenderness of wolves... have you heard of it? it's a very cool whodunnit set back in the late 19th century
10:31 am

cannot say that i have,but the wolf just happens to be my familliar/spirit totem:)
10:32 am
jmcnrick
i haven't heard of that dorens i will have to put it on my list when i end my boycott of buying new books until i have read some of the ones i already have
10:32 am
Dorens
well if you like whodunit's at all. it is a very nice one. canadian, of course
10:32 am
Dorens
jmc, don't you use your library?
10:33 am
jmcnrick
i do that too dorens
10:33 am
jmcnrick
but my library was being rebuilt for 4 years and i had to do something
10:33 am
Dorens
that's where i got it from... my library book club is reading it, and the library ordered copies for all of us
10:33 am
crosshair
lol jmc,i have roughly 100 books pending
10:34 am
Dorens
anyone who liked belcanto, ann patchet's new book is sooo good
10:34 am
jmcnrick
how nice of your library! where will they put them all?
10:35 am
Dorens
no, it is an interlibrary loan... they order them from other libraries,,, they're delivered to our library, we return them when we're done and they get sent back
10:35 am
jmcnrick
ah that is still very nice
10:35 am
Dorens
this is the greatest system.... any book you want, you look it up online, and order it, and they will deliver
10:36 am
Dorens
as long as any library in the county has it available... otherwise, you put a hold on it and they let you know when it comes in
10:36 am
crosshair
i can order e-books form over 22 libraries in simcoe-grey county online:) you get them for 17 days then the file degrades.then you can re-order if you wish it again and i can also share with friends
10:36 am
jmcnrick
my library will get pretty much any book for you but it was that 4 year gap that did me in. . . i need to get back into the swing
10:37 am

Speaking from experience here. Getting a permanent resident card in the US takes a lot of time and money. Be prepared for that.
11:22 am

Bichon - there is a website breasthealthonline.com and it has loads of infor about breast reduction including how to persuade the insurance compant that is is medically necessary. I had mine done in the Uk as I am British so didn;t have issues there but the website was really good.

It's very difficult for her to find a bra. and they are expensive

There is shadow under this red rock,

And I will show you something different from either
Your shadow at morning striding behind you
Or your shadow at evening rising to meet you;
I will show you fear in a handful of dust.

Hi everyone. I know there are a lot of pet lovers on this site and was wondering if anyone has or had an American Eskimo dog before? I'm considering different breeds of dogs for my next dog.

LuvWordGames
hi jmc
1:41 pm
Gobias
I had one. She was awesome. Hope you like brushing!
1:41 pm
LuvWordGames
hi Gobias. Do they shed a lot?
1:42 pm
Gobias
No, but they will mat if you don't brush them
1:42 pm
sprite
hi Luv. As long as you are willing to walk lots and lots and lots, keep them challenged and you are willing to put in time to keep the hair healthy, they are great dogs
1:42 pm
LuvWordGames
oic. I've heard they have a tendency to bark a lot? I've heard they can be somewhat broken of that habit
1:42 pm
Gobias
And I have a little guy now who looks like a black american eskimo
1:43 pm
LuvWordGames
hi sprite, that's what I miss the most about having a dog, taking them on walks with me
1:43 pm
HarryHood
141! halfway, and nbt!!
1:43 pm
Gobias
They have tons of energy and they don't always do what you want them to. They think they know best :P
1:43 pm
LuvWordGames
have you had an Eskie before sprite?
1:44 pm
sprite
no, a friend of mine had one. She also said to train them really well, so you don't have to walk them on the leash. Most tend to pull. It is in the blood.
1:44 pm
LuvWordGames
ah so they're a bit headstrong?
1:44 pm
sprite
nice going Harry!
1:44 pm
Gobias
Yes. I also have bloodhounds and they are similar in that as long as you make them think it is their idea, you are good! :)
1:45 pm
LuvWordGames
I had my last dog trained not to walk on a leash, I would tell her when to get over when the cars were coming down the road (no sidewalks out here in the country) and she would listen to me
1:46 pm
sprite
sounds like you are someone who'd do very well with an Eskie, Luv
1:46 pm
carleekat
ok..back..nd for any who care to know..the outside temp feels like 48 C

Mine was a rescue, it wasn't until she was older (and slower) that I would trust her fully off leash. But they are a lot of fun!

well, thanks for the input Gobias and sprite, I will have to fill out an application for the Eskie dog rescue and see what happens. Wish me luck
1:48 pm
sprite
I'd say an Eskimo dog is for experienced dog people, like you. I was adviced against it when we looked for the right breed for us, since it would be my first dog as an adult.
1:49 pm
Gobias
Good luck! Sounds like they would be lucky to have you!
1:49 pm

*wishing Luv lots of luck and is glad there will be a happy Eskie rescue in the future*

there is a an4/8 which is sort of refresh something
2:40 pm
beckyj
No, I know! Just for any 8 please. I haven't got any!
2:40 pm
MollyL
A real estate agent ***** a house to potential buyers. If she does that ahead of time, it is pr8.
2:40 pm
Glantarell
oh, i don't have an 8 either LOL
2:41 pm
beckyj
Thanks! And haha Glan!

The other 8 is twinkly thing in the sky + what you blow when you have a cold.
2:41 pm
Glantarell

can't believe the st8 is really a word - but thanks again Molly
2:42 pm

The definition is pretty damned weird.
2:43 pm

90 left and finding this one a long hard slog
2:48 pm

Thanks again Molly! I finally got those 8's! :-)
2:52 pm

you'd think when you are giving someone a sizable gift of a desk they would make some effort to accommodate your schedule
2:55 pm
MollyL
Gratitude, like manners, seems to be a lost art these days JMC.
2:58 pm
jmcnrick
i guess molly
2:59 pm
jmcnrick
that is part of the reason i have st**ped offering things on freecycle and just look for people who want something I have
3:01 pm
jmcnrick
but i may have to offer the wallpaper stripper--I have no wall paper left to strip
3:01 pm
Glantarell
funny how that works - you offer soemthing to somebodywho has asked for it and they are grateful but if you just boffer something people think they are doing you a favour by taking it off your hands
3:02 pm
jmcnrick
yep i have noticed that
3:02 pm
Glantarell
i freecycle frequently but don't always feel it's a positive experience
3:03 pm
jmcnrick
either way i feel i am glad to get rid of the thing and try to be flexible but really sometime!
3:03 pm
Glantarell
I just console myself that it is better than throwing thin gs away
3:03 pm
jmcnrick
well mostly it has been positive i am just juggling too many balls right now to be very accommodating
3:04 pm
jmcnrick
oddly i have found listing things on craigs list for a co4/5 works better than freecycle
3:04 pm
jmcnrick
it is that glan
3:05 pm
Glantarell
we don't have craigs list here
3:07 pm
bichon
maybe you can start one Glant. I've had good luck selling things and I don't have to pay EBay and Paypal a fee
3:08 pm
Glantarell
so how do you pay without paypal?
3:08 pm
Glantarell
do people just give you cash when they colllect?
3:08 pm
bichon
Actually, I did use Paypal once, but the other time, someone local saw the ad and came to the house. My husband transacted the deal outside
3:09 pm
bichon
The other person lived in the mid-west and I did pay a small amount to PayPal
3:09 pm
bichon
I find it difficult to sell things on EBay sometimes. I've tried new clothes with labels and never come close to a bit
3:10 pm
Glantarell
I guess people here in the UK sell stuff through EBay if they don't freecycle it
3:10 pm
bichon
There's nothing wrong with EBay, I just haven't had much luck there lately
3:12 pm
bichon
One problem with selling on line is that shipping costs a whole lot.
3:12 pm
Glantarell
yes it costs more than is worthwhile sometimes
3:12 pm
Glantarell
i keep meaning to put stuff for sale on EBay but have never gotten around to it
3:13 pm
Glantarell
I am sure that if I just do it ince it will be something i do a lot
3:13 pm
Glantarell
right, 44 lft and time for another break - bbl
3:13 pm
bichon
It's worth it to try. I've tried to sell it by auction because then I don't have to pay a listing fee unless it actually sells
3:14 pm

stidmama

4:29 pm
Glantarell
babblefish?
4:29 pm
stidmama
reference to Douglas Adams, I am afraid -- the little fish that automatically translates, and of course the most important thing a traveler can have with them is their towel!
4:30 pm
stidmama
of course, I spelled it wrong, in the books it's "Babel fish" -- but seeing as we are here... :-D
4:30 pm

4:34 pm
stidmama
oh sue, (((hugs))) do you need some tea or ginger ale?
4:34 pm
stidmama
I could make you hot lemonade if that would help...
4:35 pm
uusue2
no, just rest, I think - have a bladder infection that is kind of wiping me out
4:35 pm
Glantarell
A hot toddy would work wonders - some honey, lemon and a shot of good scots whisky
4:35 pm
uusue2
cool lemonade might be nice, though, it is really hot here AGAIN
4:36 pm
Glantarell
and if it doesn't work it does help ease the discomfort
4:36 pm
uusue2
there you go, glant :-)
4:36 pm
Glantarell
getting the isce out of the freezer for ue
4:36 pm

4:37 pm
Glantarell
I have a nole lady's costume you could wear Stid
4:37 pm

sue, I haven't had to deal with that in years, but I remember the feeling. *removes all sugary treats and substitutes sour* lemonade with just a touch of sugar then.
4:37 pm
Glantarell
*noble
4:38 pm
uusue2
haven't had one in years myself, don't remember getting so wiped out before
4:38 pm
Glantarell
age brings new experiences
4:38 pm
uusue2
but perhaps it is some combination of stress, heat, new meds, and whatnot
4:39 pm
Glantarell
I have amazing stamina but some things affect me more these days
4:39 pm
stidmama
that would be so funny -- chubby me pretending to be a noblewoman. As far as I know all my ancestors from those isles were countryfolk and craftspeople (except for one set from Canterbury who had some aristocratic background)
4:39 pm
MollyL
Sue, I have a friend who gets bladder infections brought on by stress.
4:39 pm
uusue2
<--- descended from Irish peasants
4:39 pm
Glantarell
I also have a female servant costume :-)
4:39 pm

I would be better made for a townswoman's work garment, I think.
4:39 pm
stidmama
yep. that's me... servant! LOL
4:40 pm
Glantarell
Linen shioft, woollen overdress

Glantarell
My eye is much better thna yesterday but is still not right
4:41 pm
MollyL
She swears by cranberry juice and takes Pyridium for them.
4:41 pm
Glantarell
I am bathing it hourly
4:41 pm
uusue2
oh well, it is giving me an excuse to stay in bed
4:42 pm
uusue2
did you go to the doctor,glant?
4:42 pm
MollyL
What's wrong with your eye Glant?
4:42 pm
Glantarell
I inadvertently got a teensy smudge of spurge sap in it yer=sterday
4:42 pm
uusue2
i remember yesterday's discussion about your eye = it does sound like it needs medical attention
4:43 pm
Glantarell
It streamed for about 14 hours and go very painful at one point but bathing it at 10 minute intervals helped
4:43 pm
Glantarell
It was fine for about 6 hours tpday and then when I st=arted getting a little tired it began to get sore
4:44 pm
Glantarell
But there are no problems with vision
4:44 pm
MollyL
Stream? Meaning discharge? I would see a doctor about that.
4:44 pm
Glantarell
I am sure it will be fine tomorrow
4:44 pm
bichon
It could have irritated the cornea
4:44 pm
Glantarell
Just as if I was crying but the tears wer pouring out
4:45 pm
uusue2
btw, here is what I am doing tomorrow night: http://tinyurl.com/3s3ybhq
4:45 pm
Glantarell
It felt as if the skin on the inside of the eyelid was iorritated rather than the eyeball
4:46 pm
Glantarell
Wow, Sue, looks fabulous - hope you're feeling fit enough by then
4:46 pm
uusue2
might need some medicated drops to help it heal, glant, or some antibiotic ones to prevent infection (son went through this recently with contact lenses that weren't cleaned properly)
4:47 pm
MollyL
That looks like fun Sue. I hope you're feeling much better by then.
4:47 pm
uusue2
still have to finish my talk but I figure I can do that tomorrow, should be feeling better then (I have most of it done and know what I want to do for the rest)
4:47 pm

Occasionally, if I have had several days of high stress and too much alcohol and not enough sleep
4:50 pm
snags
i have to go, but would love talking to you further.

8:58 pm

yes,a short rain just makes it that much worse
8:59 pm
Krista
Silly question - do most Canadians have air conditioning, or does it depend on the area in which you live?
9:00 pm
crosshair
depends on area and finances,we normally only get over 85f a few times a year in this area,so many do not bother
9:00 pm
crosshair
but this year has been record breaking for heat
9:01 pm
Krista
Bet lots are suffering, then.
9:01 pm
crosshair
an average window style air conditioner can bump the electric bill for a two bedroom home up by 200 a month easy
9:02 pm
Krista
Yes, it's very costly!
9:02 pm
crosshair
they average it out at 7.50 a day extra if you keep it at 75f inside
9:03 pm
crosshair
read a report on it today
9:03 pm

I need to try to keep ours a little warmer. I've gotten used to about 70 degrees.
