In Jesusween, participants are asked to dress in white to symbolize purity instead of wearing dark-themed costumes, and to distribute free Bibles instead of gathering candy

12:55 am

Alohablue

12:57 am

The only fish I like is fish that doesn't taste like fish

gramma

sprite, ty but I'm fine with the salmon.

4:13 am

4:32 am

gramma

We were supposed to be on vacation but I thought I'd rather stay put and moan.

4:32 am

4:41 am

rubyfoo

I'm really not sure which it is, but the local (French?) custom is to put chrusanthemums and other flowers on the graves. If I can hobble on down to the cemetery, I'll take some pix and try to post them

I'm fine; just trying to work o bit on DH's computer (I'm Babbling on my own computer though). His computer is so slow that it take about 5 minutes to start up!

9:32 am

flosey

Ruby said she couldn't see well enough to continue

9:32 am

flosey

hope it's nothing more than tired eyes from staring at the grid

9:33 am

Nef

343 words; is it just the size of the grid or something else?

9:33 am

flosey

hope it is just the size

9:33 am

Sally-catlover

OK, I've looked back and she just says she has blurry eyes, so don't know if it's tiredness or something else.

9:34 am

Nef

I'm just starting and am already seeing weird phantoms with letters that aren't even here!

10:40 am

ursh

another "stuck on" word se7/48 please

10:40 am

uusue2

they are struggling more than I thought they would (at least they are taking more time)

10:40 am

uusue2

hi, JBV!

10:40 am

JBV

just finished and at the ready for anyone needing a clue - I can be here for a bit longer

10:40 am

good morning. what are the stats for the top row O please?

10:41 am

10:41 am

sue, can I ask you a question about your university online resources? Do have have SAKAI - or something similar -

10:41 am

flosey

and os8/40

10:41 am

uusue2

dunno, JBV, would that be something in the library?

10:41 am

10:42 am

harpjane

thanks

10:42 am

flosey

metal + rock

10:42 am

JBV

it's an online resource we have - professors post course material (syllabus, assignments, etc.) and students each have their own worksite

10:43 am

cool.girl

ty

10:43 am

uusue2

ah, we use blackboard for that

10:43 am

flosey

in8/40 and 9/54

10:43 am

JBV

but I have a feeling it is not being used to the max - I don't know enough about the technology but I thought it would be a way for students to also communicate with each other, share material, etc.

10:43 am

JBV

(I can't help it, I'm a student, but thinking like a teacher)

10:44 am

uusue2

you can certainly do that with Blackboard, there are discussion boards and whatnot

10:44 am

JBV

they also have an online student attendance program - do you have that? students register an absence , more than 3 there are consequences (doesn't affect me as an auditor)

10:45 am

cool.girl

can u clue me the in 8/9 please

10:45 am

JBV

Oh! I thought you mean the old slate blackboard! LOL, I guess it's the same kind of thing - we are not using discussion boards at all

10:45 am

uusue2

no, I don't think so, JBV, although some faculty use clickers to take attendance

10:46 am

crosshair

just think..ten or20years from now,the brick and mortar schoolswill be obsolete,virtual blackboards, dowloadable texts,professors using gotomeetings.com and speakingto the classon the net via audia and camera...

10:46 am

flosey

chant, or modulation of voice -

10:46 am

JBV

we heard those predictions years ago, crossy, change comes slow in academe....

10:47 am

uusue2

class over, bbl

10:48 am

crosshair

allthe infrastructure forit is available now

10:49 am

JBV

yes, and I think some high schools are ahead of the curve - we have one here that just made ALL textbooks available and gave every student a device (not sure which) to read them

10:49 am

crosshair

my son was in charge this year of sending a live class feed to a handicapped student friend of his

i find that as the wife and i get older,itis often better to concede defeat or at least a tie on the smaller arguments in life.she willcome tome in a tiff about someting,then i can get angry,but then she becomes furious,then i can startraving,buti find a woman can escalate far beyond where men wish to tread cause her next stage is empty the silos and scorched earth..soi say yes you are right with your tiff dear and move on to a good book

11:05 am

11:15 am

crosshair

morning here, lol, still drinking coffee

11:43 am

Pffth. It's 12:42 here, rasta, and I'm still drinking coffee. My lazy arse didn't get out of bed until 10:45. [[[[[[shamed]]]]]

Help on the first se7: se7,48 please?

11:45 am

Sorry. Don't have that one yet, Erda.

11:45 am

lunchtime here, and im getting soda in my body as fast as i can swallow it...

11:47 am

Judi

Chug! Chug! Chug!

11:48 am

EvaNadine

id set up an IV, if i thought it would be acceptable...

11:49 am

Judi

If you're that thirsty, water would be better. Although, you can't beat the caffeine zap from soda.

11:49 am

rastapopolous

I got a seltzer bottle, a bunch of CO2 cans, and have been making my own soda from our well water - very nice in summer. I spalsh of vanilla and 4 drops of stevia makes a terrific cream soda

11:51 am

rastapopolous

actually for rehydration plain water is less good - that's why gatorade had salts in it, back when these sports drinks were really thought about and not just "energy" drinks full of sugar...

11:51 am

Judi

I do like seltzer. I gave up drinking soda a few years ago. Mostly drink unsweetened ice tea now. I do use Stevia for my coffee. Good stuff!

11:51 am

rastapopolous

for *quick* rehydration at any rate

11:52 am

rastapopolous

yes, I mostly drink unsweetened ice tea too :)

11:52 am

rastapopolous

when I'm not drinking coffee or beer lol

11:52 am

Judi

Sometimes nothing but the "fizz" will satisfy.

11:53 am

Judi

Ditto, rasta. After all, we're only human!

11:53 am

Jeff7

menity

11:53 am

rastapopolous

yes, that's why I got the seltzer. Don't like supporting the sodapop companies, don't like generating plastic bottles, so this works well for me

11:53 am

Jeff7

sorry!

11:53 am

Jeff7

and hi all too lol

11:54 am

Hi, Jeff. No worries. We would prefer you would mistakenly type words we can use though. :-)

11:56 am

EvaNadine

i had weened myself off soda for a while, but being on the Weight Watchers plan, diet soda is a "freebie" so i have been relying on it more than i should be for something sweet. i want the sweet, the fizz, the caffeine -- all of it!

11:56 am

Judi

Looks like she enjoys a rough life of grooming and pampering.

11:57 am

Jeff7

We had a tough animal year this year-lost 2 dogs and a cat....he's king of the castle now

11:57 am

Judi

Oh no! How tragic, Jeff. I definitely feel your pain. I lost two cats within three months of each other. One was ten, the other just a year old.

11:58 am

Jeff7

you know going in that you will outlive them but it's always tough

12:00 pm

Judi

Always. But the unconditional love is priceless. It's all worth it - for all creatures involved.

you stick the "snake" down the drain, twist and pull it out

I used one & then used vinegar & baking soda & it was running smoothly & sweet smelling!

Turbo Snake, as seen on TV. got it at Target. it is also in some catalogs.

2:25 pm

ursh

oh that would work in our shower cos the strainer thingie is loose but both kitchen & bathroom sinks have fitted strainer thingies

2:26 pm

I also use vinegar and baking soda but not today

2:26 pm

periwinkle

the holes mkight be big enough or could they be unscrewed?

2:27 pm

no sealed in tight - but would depend on the size of the snake to fit through the holes - will look in hardware stores

3:48 pm

Anniebrook

Oh Dorens, that's awful...keep the fireplace going

3:49 pm

Dorens

going to sleep at a friend's house tonight.. just can't do that anymore.

3:49 pm

Anniebrook

Im glad youre getting away for the night

3:50 pm

Dorens

trying to get dressed and fix hair, etc when it is cold AND dark is just not working for me anymore. The pioneer spirit is weakening

3:50 pm

MollyL

*Sending out hopeful thoughts that Dorens power will be back on soon*

3:51 pm

Dorens

thank mol, but if you saw the hill I live on, you'd wonder if it would be realistic to hope for it to be done before the weekend!

3:51 pm

Anniebrook

>>>>>sending good vibes to Dorens...and to the power company

3:52 pm

Dorens

thanks annie. they made me wait 6 days after irene, so I do wish them good vibes, but still harbor just a wee grudge.

3:53 pm

Anniebrook

During Irene, Liz (dau) have no power for days but she lucked out this time, power is still on but half her town has no power..and the schools are closed, no power there either

3:54 pm

Anniebrook

This is worse than Irene

3:54 pm

MollyL

Oh wow, that is a LONG time to be without power.

3:55 pm

Anniebrook

Everything has to be thrown away that is in the frig and freezer

3:55 pm

Dorens

my town hasn't had school this week, but the school i work in does! guess i'm lucky tho, since at least i'm warm when i'm here at school. Should leave soon, want to get to my house before dark so i can pack some things up and still see when i'm there. yes, i lost all m y frozen food then and might again this time tho. the fridge shouldn't be a problem... the house is 53 degrees... the fridge isn't much colder than that is it?

3:56 pm

Anniebrook

Dorens, You are living in colonial times...bah

3:57 pm

Dorens

yup. feels like it annie.. but at least i have water.. some of my friends who have wells have no water either and that is so much worse

3:58 pm

Anniebrook

During Irene Liz didnt have water...they all went to live with Doug's mother..I really hope your power is restored soon. Enuf is enuf!

3:59 pm

Dorens

i plan to buy a generator... but none can be found in northern jersey these days

3:59 pm

Anniebrook

A generator is an excellent idea

4:01 pm

MollyL

I've heard that you should get rid of your perishables if you are without power for longer than 40 hours.

4:01 pm

Anniebrook

I have to leave for awhile, see you later

4:03 pm

Dorens

bye all. leaving soon myself. might not finish the monster

4:29 pm

uusue2

4:29 pm

Mom

hmmm, I did not know that. I will have to check it out. Thank you

4:29 pm

uusue2

all electronic books, including tons of free ones

4:34 pm

MollyL

<--- Still lives in dark ages, where books still have pages
: )

4:34 pm

uusue2

<--- on the phone with my dad, who is fine and did not lose power

4:35 pm

MollyL

Good to hear about your Dad, Sue.

4:35 pm

Mom

4:35 pm

uusue2

4:36 pm

Mom

Uusue, I am showing my sweetie your stop motion animation short on your facebook

4:36 pm

Mom

so glad about your dad, uusue

4:36 pm

MollyL

I just can't get into reading on a screen. There is something about it that is too sterile for me.

4:38 pm

Mom

I need a book to fall on my face to let me know I fell asleep :-)

4:38 pm

uusue2

I don't use my reader when print is practical, but it sure is nice for traveling!

4:39 pm

uusue2

lol, mom!

4:40 pm

MollyL

Oh Mom, I can so relate to that comment. : )

4:42 pm

rolin

i am so into reading on my phone..i love it... i make time to read now...

4:42 pm

Mom

my son and sweetie both have nooks

4:43 pm

Mom

for my sweetie it is great, it looks like something he would need for work so if he is caught reading (so far so good) he can just pretend like he was entering information

4:43 pm

Mom

Rolin, isn't that such small print?

4:45 pm

rolin

no mom... i have a samsung galaxy 2... its a lovely bright screen and easy to read

4:45 pm

Mom

that's neat. My phone only makes calls and text

4:45 pm

Mom

<---- dinosaur

4:46 pm

Mom

118 words and just now finding the man

4:46 pm

Mom

4:47 pm

MollyL

<---In the dinosaur corner with Mom. There is no way I could read on a phone screen.

4:48 pm

MollyL

For that matter, there is no way I could do computer stuff on a net book.

4:49 pm

Mom

<-- patiently waiting for Sue Grafton's and Janet Evanovich's books to arrive at the library.

4:51 pm

MollyL

What letter is Grafton up to Mom?

4:52 pm

Mom

V is for Vengenance

4:52 pm

Mom

(sp)

4:52 pm

Mom

vengence, that looks better

4:53 pm

Mom

she does one every 2 years but she is approaching 70.

4:54 pm

uusue2

Janet Evanovich always cracks me up :-)

4:55 pm

Mom

ooohh, she is 71

4:55 pm

Mom

FIVE here on babble got me started on those

4:55 pm

Mom

4:56 pm

NANCY

4:56 pm

MollyL

*Sigh* It will be a sad day when the Z book is done and the Kinsey stories are over with.

4:56 pm

Mom

Hi Nancy, I don't have it but I'll help you look

4:56 pm

uusue2

4:56 pm

Mom

4:57 pm

uusue2

molly, maybe she'll be like the hurricane names and start on the Greek alphabet :-)

4:57 pm

MollyL

That's it

4:57 pm

Mom

I know, but that is at least 8 years away. She will be 79 years old

4:57 pm

NANCY

<--- used to own property in Kentucky

5:01 pm

Mom

you will need to move up north near me, otherwise will talk with a suthern drawl

5:01 pm

Mom

where, uusue?

5:01 pm

uusue2

ha, now I will have to check the map :-) south of Lexington

5:02 pm

Mom

That is pretty country down there and they talk with the drawl

5:02 pm

uusue2

near Mount Vernon

5:03 pm

Mom

beautiful country down there.

5:03 pm

Mom

<----- loves the drawl

5:03 pm

MollyL

I'd love to be your neighbor Mom, but I already talk with a southern drawl.

5:03 pm

Mom

you from the south Molly?

5:04 pm

Mom

If I had a choice of speech I would either want a southern drawl or be british

5:04 pm

MollyL

No, but there is enough drawl here in Maryland.

5:04 pm

Mom

really? I didn't realize that

5:04 pm

uusue2

and another plot on the Kentucky River east of Richmond, I think

5:05 pm

Mom

I think southern Kentucky is some of the prettiest land

5:05 pm

Mom

southeastern

5:05 pm

MollyL

According to my family in Massachusetts, anyone who says y'all has a drawl. : )

5:05 pm

Mom

my friend lived in Richmond, lovely area

5:06 pm

Mom

:-) on one of our water towers here, in the city of Florence it is painted Florence y'all

5:07 pm

Mom

our friends in Canada thought saying y'all was a hoot

5:08 pm

uusue2

I signed a quitclaim deed on the properties but might still be responsible for the mortgages if my ex defaults :-(

5:10 pm

Mom

I hope he doesn't. Does he live down here?

5:10 pm

uusue2

no, he's in Florida

5:10 pm

uusue2

his daughter lives there, and he wanted to retire close to her

5:11 pm

uusue2

but when we separated her husband told him he was a bum and to get out :-(

5:11 pm

uusue2

so he's been trying to sell the properties, but that's not likely to happen any time soon

5:11 pm

hootowl

Did I hear someone use my name in vain?

5:11 pm

uusue2

whooooo?

5:12 pm

Mom

wow. no, I doubt it, uusue.

5:12 pm

hootowl

hi all

5:12 pm

Mom

Never, hoot!

5:12 pm

Mom

hello

5:12 pm

uusue2

hi, hoot!

5:12 pm

hootowl

Babble did it again! BF home and a huge puzzle!

5:13 pm

hootowl

tx mom

5:13 pm

uusue2

so if anybody wants some nice, cheap property in Kentucky....

5:13 pm

hootowl

what's your definition of cheap sue?

5:13 pm

Mom

how much land?

5:14 pm

uusue2

I think the plot in Mt Vernon is about 20 acres, maybe, and the Kentucky River one is about 15

5:15 pm

hootowl

oh ! lovely privacy!

5:15 pm

Mom

those are fair sizes

5:15 pm

uusue2

<--- trying to remember how much would be left on the mortgages

5:16 pm

uusue2

probably about $2000/acre for the Mt Vernon one, and maybe $3000/acre for the other - it has about 1500' of river frontage

5:16 pm

Mom

what made you all decide to buy land in Kentucky

5:16 pm

uusue2

ex-hubby wanted to retire there

5:17 pm

uusue2

on account of his daughter being nearby - she lives in Mt Vernon

5:18 pm

Mom

would you split it up or would someone have to buy the entire acreage?

5:18 pm

uusue2

well, they are two totally separate parcels; I don't know if he'd be willing to subdivide them further

5:19 pm

Mom

okay. If I hear of anyone looking for land I'll let them know

5:19 pm

uusue2

the Kentucky River property was part of a, what, subdivision doesn't sound quite right, but there was a 10-acre minimum size, so that property would probably have to go as a single plot

5:19 pm

Mom

Richmond is about 1 1/2 hours from here

5:20 pm

uusue2

wow, mom, if someone actually bought even one of them that would be great!

5:21 pm

Mom

sometimes you hear talk of people wanting to have land if for no other reason than to hunt on it

5:21 pm

uusue2

<--- looks at map

5:21 pm

Mom

no buildings on the land?

5:21 pm

Mom

should be .... any

5:21 pm

uusue2

so you are right near Cincinnati, looks like (which I can never spell)

5:21 pm

uusue2

no, no buildings on either property

5:22 pm

Mom

you spelled it correctly

5:22 pm

Mom

we are in Edgewood

5:22 pm

uusue2

no. the spell checker fixed it :-)

5:22 pm

Mom

yes not far at all from Cincinnati

5:22 pm

Mom

:-)

5:25 pm

Mom

the one east of Richmond ... is it still considered Richmond?

5:25 pm

uusue2

no, it's quite a bit east of there, on the river

5:26 pm

Mom

I'll have to get my atlas out :)

5:28 pm

uusue2

and I'll have to remember exactly where it is :-)

5:29 pm

Mom

I see it

5:29 pm

uusue2

I'm thinking it's about 7 miles NE of Union City

5:30 pm

Mom

not to far from the Natural Bridge State Resort Park

5:30 pm

uusue2

not that far east, I don't think

5:32 pm

uusue2

there's an almost circular loop in the river NE of Union City and N of College Hill - it's on the south edge of that loop, if memory serves me correctly

5:33 pm

Mom

I see it

milk can make you more congested, eva, I think the chicken soup followed by the hot toddy would work better :-)

7:00 pm

Unfortunately Eva, you probably need a few days of rest. Good luck flying that past your boss.

a dutch oven is not the same as a slow cooker. a dutch oven is a large pot, usuaully cast iron that is placed inside a regular oven to cook food. A slow cooker is a something that has a pot inside a holder of some sort and is electric

Good. is the pups all well now though?

8:38 pm

Even here in the US, though. I had my thyroid gland removed 2 years ago and that hospital system had "Consultants" for docs; the hospital I had my hip replacement in this summer has "specialists"

I'm doing great, Molly. But if I play on the floor with the little kids too long (like I did on Friday and again on Sunday) It's too much

8:42 pm

herinfernallady

Nef get the kids to play on the couch with you

8:43 pm

8:47 pm

Oh good news Nef. I know you were having difficulties while you waited for the hip replacement. I'm glad you are getting to enjoy things more now. You deserve that.

8:48 pm

Nef

nope, shdy. I'll leave those to redturtlehead (who's also a nurse here and had hip surgery this summer. She IS a runner

8:48 pm

Shady seems to me that they are like a doctor nurse

8:49 pm

dr-nurse, of course, that's what i wanted to be when i grew up!! hehe

8:49 pm

Nef

I've never been a runner, shdy. Too many bouncy parts! ;-)

8:50 pm

herinfernallady

Well they are doctors but do the emergancy things that nurses are not trained to do and fill in before the doctor apears

8:50 pm

shdybr8

funny, nef, i was a runner when i was 10-15 and had no bouncy parts, and hadn't discovered cigarettes yet

8:51 pm

shdybr8

now THAT makes sense, herin, ty, ty, ty

8:51 pm

herinfernallady

Sorry I know what I mean

8:51 pm

shdybr8

no, herin, i was being serious, that does make sense

8:51 pm

Nef

herin, I've found it interesting that nurses around the globe have huge differences in education and training

8:52 pm

shdybr8

tap, tap, herin?

8:52 pm

herinfernallady

Well I am not discrediting nurses but I think these doctors are like doctor floaters when the nurse isn't allowed to do it

8:53 pm

shdybr8

i get it, your education level determines what you're allowed to do

8:54 pm

i don't have enough letters behind my name to teach graduate students, but i can privately them when the prof can't teach them

8:54 pm

shdybr8

missing word = tutor

8:55 pm

herinfernallady

Od = O plus give

8:55 pm

shdybr8

to steal from Karlee, that word is stoopid

8:56 pm

Shirlockc

thx herin

8:56 pm

Nef

I kow what you mean, herin; not trying to pick on you at all. Here in the US if a nurse works in ICU or ER they have to pass ACLS courses where they are taught to run codes and intubate til the docs get there. I've had to run a code (code= when a patient's heart stops and we call a code for immediate help in the hospital) for up to 10 minutes in the past

8:57 pm

herinfernallady

Maybe these doctors are fillers. I am not very good on words

8:57 pm

shdybr8

i'm also not picking, fully agreeing, maybe i just don't express myself clearly

8:58 pm

shdybr8

i very much understood your description of how they are a little more than a nurse, a little less than a doc

8:58 pm

Nef

And we had an RN who came to us (highly educated with years of ICU experience) from an Asian country who'd never listend to heart or bowel sounds before

8:58 pm

herinfernallady

I am a bit of gibber monkey today.

8:58 pm

gapeach

May I please have a clue for ne6-24? Thanks

8:59 pm

shdybr8

lost me, herin, gibber monkey?

8:59 pm

jaianniah

To nullify ne6

9:00 pm

jaianniah

think opp. of positive

9:00 pm

Nef

Residents are docs who have completed their education and internship and are learning on the job; still students; have passed their exams; but are usually working long shifts (24 or 36 hours) at a stretch

9:00 pm

Shirlockc

no8 the first?

9:00 pm

gapeach

Thanks much jain.

9:01 pm

jaianniah

YW!!!

9:01 pm

jaianniah

Don't have no8

9:02 pm

shdybr8

yes, nef, i worked as a unit clerk about 20 years ago, ended up working 3-11 weekdays and 6A-11P weekends, got to know the system as it worked in Houston, length of coat indicates position, etc

9:02 pm

firefly779

fun grid huh?

9:02 pm

jaianniah

It's Jai, rhymes with Thai

9:02 pm

jaianniah

Yeah, really fun....

9:02 pm

shdybr8

even the secretary doesn't have to respect med students!

9:02 pm

herinfernallady

Gibber Monkey - Just gibbering about nothing

9:02 pm

herinfernallady

JAIJAI were have you been

9:03 pm

jaianniah

I worked on it this morning, but I just ran out of steam

9:03 pm

jaianniah

In College learning to be a minister! <hugs>

9:03 pm

shdybr8

ty, herin, but your gibbering defined a word for me, so i'm a gibber listerner? hehe

9:03 pm

Nef

I have an no 8 which starts out sounding like an over the counter anti sleep aid and ends sounding like new York C***

9:03 pm

jaianniah

It is Rev. Jai now!

9:03 pm

herinfernallady

Jai you realise you were one of the first people that said Hi to me

9:03 pm

jaianniah

LOL!

9:03 pm

shdybr8

nice spelling, huh? no wonder no fireworks!

9:04 pm

jaianniah

Really, herin??? Wow! You remember that???

9:04 pm

Shirlockc

anti sleep aid? never use it, i value my sleep -- unless it's caffeine that is

9:05 pm

shdybr8

great clues tonite, nef, i'm mostly chatting, well, gibbering, but each of your clues gives me a few words

9:05 pm

jaianniah

Do you remember my daughter, Knutmeg? She's in college, too!

9:06 pm

Nef

as a college student many of my classmates used it. I tried it once and my roomie couldn't wake me up for the test the next day

9:06 pm

herinfernallady

Jai I looked at the grid from when I started

9:06 pm

herinfernallady

I remember that

9:06 pm

herinfernallady

Ok the b.f has handed in his man card

9:07 pm

jaianniah

Kool, herin! It's nice to "see" you!

9:07 pm

gapeach

May I please have a clue for ne7-36 the 2nd? Thanks

9:08 pm

shdybr8

funny, nef, i use a sleep aid because otherwise i don't sleep. was having trouble waking up at 4 if i took it after about 11P. Know what the doc said? (Big Bucks). "if you take it late, take half" geez i'm dumb

9:08 pm

jaianniah

It's the pl. of ne6

9:08 pm

herinfernallady

My b.f is so slack

9:08 pm

Shirlockc

starts the same as the other ne7 right before but add opp of off

9:09 pm

jaianniah

I have early waking insomnia...I sleep for 4 hours, then wake up...what a pain...

9:09 pm

periwinkle

hi all, po6/27 pls

9:09 pm

shdybr8

mine is the opposite, jai, hardly ever fall asleep on my own. once i do the house can fall down and i won't wake up 'til i'm done

9:10 pm

jaianniah

Peri!!!! hi!!!

9:10 pm

shdybr8

hi peri!

9:10 pm

herinfernallady

Hi peri

9:10 pm

herinfernallady

How hard is it to ring and organise a mechanic?

9:11 pm

jaianniah

Actually, I have trouble with both ends of sleep...I guess I have to get used to "cat-napping"...ick...

9:11 pm

jaianniah

I feel in a deep fog a lot of the time...

9:11 pm

periwinkle

Jai, gapeach and I are also Reiki practitioners.

9:11 pm

shdybr8

herin, hibby or other half or whatever is a mechanic, nothing is fixed... so very hard!

9:11 pm

periwinkle

I have trouble staying asleep

9:11 pm

jaianniah

A mechanic?? LOL! Imppossible!

9:12 pm

shdybr8

if i catnap, i wake up with no idea what day/year/life it is!

9:12 pm

jaianniah

I really CAN spell..just cannnot type!! LOL!!!

9:12 pm

jaianniah

Same here shdy!

9:13 pm

herinfernallady

Apparently it is nigh on impossible for him to do it. If I could fix this car I would

9:13 pm

shdybr8

worst in the winter when you wake up, it's dark, and it's 5:30, so you make coffee, shower, get dressed, panic because you're late. I quit napping after that happened a few times

9:14 pm

herinfernallady

Last night I fell asleep whilst on my pc talking to friends via facebook. I was lying flat out on the couch with the laptop on my knees for two hours

9:14 pm

periwinkle

I am a very good napper but sometimes it makes it harder for me to sleep at night. no nap today but I am not tired and it is past 10 pm

9:14 pm

jaianniah

Oh, yes! I have done that! Thanks for the memory, shdy! LOL!

9:14 pm

MollyL

Peri, like the po6/27 toed shoes that some women wear.

9:14 pm

shdybr8

so your knees were nice and toasty!

9:14 pm

jaianniah

Same here, peri

9:15 pm

periwinkle

ty Molly was getting a headache looking for that one

9:15 pm

herinfernallady

The laptop is on a board and cooling mat the point is how I managed to not twitch or move is beyond me. My mother has seen my do this and can't believe it

9:15 pm

jaianniah

Ty, Molly..did not see that one

9:15 pm

shdybr8

i hardly ever sleep, hubby prefers 12+ hours a day, we are both baffled by the other's needs

9:16 pm

MollyL

It eluded me for a while too, which is funny because I bash that shoe look all the time in a fashion blog.

9:16 pm

jaianniah

Yeah..I have the same issue..my fiance sleeps like a log...Me...forget it...I wake up if a feather falls from my pillow

9:17 pm

herinfernallady

Damn ikea Ektorp couch it eats me

9:17 pm

Shirlockc

pe7 before the male fun part?

9:19 pm

periwinkle

fw,bye for now, good to see you Jai

9:19 pm

jaianniah

A person in the confessional is pe7

9:19 pm

jaianniah

Good to see you, too! Bye!

9:19 pm

Shirlockc

have that one, need the other before it

9:19 pm

herinfernallady

Bye Peri

9:20 pm

jaianniah

Have not got that one, sorry

9:20 pm

shdybr8

bye peri, it was nice to see you

9:20 pm

shdybr8

looking for it, shirl

9:21 pm

Shirlockc

got it, writing instrument + pt of have food

9:21 pm

shdybr8

something like prisoners? where the singular isn't a word, but plural is?

9:21 pm

MollyL

Shirl...writing tool + past tense of eat, plural

9:22 pm

jaianniah

I just got it now...ty...

9:22 pm

MollyL

Oops, too late.

9:22 pm

jaianniah

Kept trying the singular...

9:22 pm

shdybr8

ok, no more cluing from me today **hangs head and giggles at self*

9:22 pm

herinfernallady

Hi Anyone I missed

9:23 pm

shdybr8

i just noticed, is today kitty icon day? youknow i never bother to change mine

9:23 pm

jaianniah

No, no..keep cluing!

9:24 pm

jaianniah

LOL! The kitty icon is just my standard pic...what luck...

9:24 pm

shdybr8

seriously!!!! laughing aloud and alone

9:24 pm

shdybr8

not at the kitty, but the cluing concept

9:24 pm

herinfernallady

These last 76 are painfull and I am using more words

9:25 pm

shdybr8

i honestly got stuck at the beginning, i start in the upper left and work my way across and doen

9:25 pm

jaianniah

Yeah.. I gave up on the idea of fireworks back at about noon EST...LOL

9:26 pm

shdybr8

still missing an upper left o but haven't listed so don't know waht it is. Usually 300+ grids are easier

9:26 pm

jaianniah

I am here to shamelessly get clues and chat!

9:26 pm

herinfernallady

I found that I found teh first 260 off the top of my head and now nothing

9:27 pm

jaianniah

You must be good..I only got to 100 without the clues...Wow!

9:27 pm

shdybr8

funny, herin, that's how many i have left! but chatting more, only getting words when someone clues one

9:27 pm

jaianniah

Me too!

9:27 pm

shdybr8

that's why you never see me any more!

9:28 pm

jaianniah

I got the od 7 & 8 if anyone needs those

9:28 pm

herinfernallady

awwww

9:28 pm

shdybr8

i used to start the grid early, finish, then clue

9:28 pm

shdybr8

now i jump in after hubby goes to bed, and mostly chat

9:29 pm

jaianniah

I used to absolutely live for Babble...all day, every day... then I started college...and I long for the days when I lived for Babble...but I was seriously ill then, so I guess it all evens out

9:30 pm

shdybr8

yes, jai, i would rather be healthy, any day, even if I do love Babble and the community

9:31 pm

shdybr8

AAAGH, stroke boy thinks he can do anything now - he just tipped over the trash, brought "stuff" to tear up, and when i looked at him funny he staggered to the left and fell down. REALLY?

9:33 pm

shdybr8

please understand that stroke boy is a 14 year old large dog, not my son or husband!

9:34 pm

shdybr8

on Thursday it will be 2 weeks since his stroke

9:34 pm

shdybr8

he's the bear in my name

9:35 pm

herinfernallady

O POOR PUPPY

9:35 pm

jaianniah

Yes, this is true!

9:35 pm

jaianniah

Sorry about the doggy! That is awful!

9:35 pm

shdybr8

goofy, crazy creature, big fuzzy brown boy, thinks he can misbehave now that he's "sick"

9:37 pm

jaianniah

I jst found a bunch of ha words I missed...duh!

9:37 pm

shdybr8

He has made a remarkable recovery, went from not able to stand to almost previous normal, now i just want him off the prednisone, which made him better, so he can get back on his rimadyl and adequan for big old dog hip pain

9:37 pm

jaianniah

Or should I say, <aha> ...Bad pun...

9:38 pm

jaianniah

OOO the prednisone..peeing all the time???

9:38 pm

herinfernallady

That is great Shdy

9:38 pm

jaianniah

I am glad he is recovering..it must have been very scary

9:39 pm

shdybr8

and hungry and thirsty. Little girl, the shady part of my name, has been on prednisone forever for allergies, and she will do anything for food

9:39 pm

jaianniah

I hated when my animals had to take that stuff...ugh! In-out-in-out...

9:40 pm

shdybr8

i cried, cried, cried, I know it will happen, but don't want it. I have been working the mastiff rescue organization so that after bear and shady are gone (theyre 13 and 14) i can focus on the positive of a new rescue

9:41 pm

jaianniah

I have to go.. my neck is hurting, and I need to get off the keyboard..but I may be back for the flip! Thanks, everyone!

9:41 pm

herinfernallady

My cats are my world

9:41 pm

herinfernallady

Night Jai.

9:41 pm

shdybr8

nite, jai, hope your neck relaxes!

9:41 pm

jaianniah

My cats <were> my world...but now they are all gone...

9:41 pm

jaianniah

See you all!

9:41 pm

herinfernallady

You just have to love them while they are here

9:42 pm

jaianniah

The cat in the pic died thhis year...He was only two.

9:42 pm

shdybr8

herin youwould laugh at the new babies here, they were tiny July 1 when we adopted them, Cleo is regal, tony is fuzzy and clumsy and cute as hell

9:42 pm

herinfernallady

When we went away for two weeks the car hadn't even turned off in our drive before I dived out of the car for kitty cuddles

9:42 pm

shdybr8

Oh no, 2? how heartbreaking

9:44 pm

shdybr8

I love all 5 of my creatures, so much, the older ones just need me more right now, instead of them providing me with happiness all the time, i need to make themcomfortable and happy

9:45 pm

shdybr8

14 is insanely old for Bear, who was around 90 pounds in his prime

9:45 pm

herinfernallady

What sort of dog is Bear?

9:46 pm

shdybr8

all of my creatures are rescues and not sure, but Bear looks like a Newfoundland, just much smaller

9:46 pm

herinfernallady

awwww

9:46 pm

shdybr8

i put a pic of a real Newfie on my wallpaper, and hubby thought it was Bear

9:47 pm

herinfernallady

Newfies are cute. My friend is selling some of his hunting dogs and OM they aer going to be ginormous

9:48 pm

shdybr8

i love big dogs and small cats. thus the mastiff lean for when i lose my old ones

9:49 pm

herinfernallady

My friend has a rescue Douge. She rescued another one but sadly she died because of shitty breeding

9:51 pm

herinfernallady

These are the boar dogs for sale: http://tinyurl.com/6xlg488 look at the size of those paws

9:51 pm

shdybr8

I detest the irresponsible breeders, where a puppy is 500 - 2500 $. I am a strong supporter of rescuing, where usually the dog is damaged emotionally, but a wonderful companion for a patient person

9:52 pm

shdybr8

*said with a purring rescue kitty on my arms and batting at the keyboard

9:53 pm

herinfernallady

The guy had 11 puppies in the litter. He didn't just breed for the hell of it. He needed a specific type of dog for hunting

9:54 pm

shdybr8

Miss cleo hunts lizards, birds, and dragonflies all day, then wants momma at night

9:54 pm

shdybr8

did he need 11 of them?

9:55 pm

herinfernallady

No. That is why he is selling 8 to other people that use them for hunting

9:56 pm

shdybr8

sorry herin, i am not being confrontational at all, i just lack communication skills, tend to speak what runs through my head, no filter

9:57 pm

gapeach

May I please have a clue for an6-18? Thanks

9:57 pm

herinfernallady

O no I understand. This is what he said as he is all for rescues too. But he needed them for a working purpose. They will make great hunting dogs. And before people get all up in my bus about it the animals they hunt are devastating wild life

9:58 pm

shdybr8

i was definitely arguing, it just seems that we skipped from irresponsible breeders to a specific responsible breeder. 2 different planets, in my book

9:59 pm

shdybr8

um,... what i meant was definitely not arguing....geez

10:00 pm

herinfernallady

O yes. For sure. This guy would make sure they get good homes and such. I hate puppy farmers

10:00 pm

shdybr8

i won't be typing tutor any time soon!

10:00 pm

shdybr8

me too herin

10:01 pm

herinfernallady

EKK just got a call to repair the car $1200 approx

10:01 pm

shdybr8

i have no problem with responsible breeders, but since i don't intend to show my dogs, i can do the most good by rescuing

10:02 pm

shdybr8

yay! is that a reasonable price?

10:03 pm

Nef

<wandering back in again> YIKES!!! That's a lot of $$$ for car repairs!

10:03 pm

herinfernallady

A responsible breeder will always take back the animal and it will always be sold desexed and chipped and only breed to keep the breed going and not for money.

10:05 pm

shdybr8

omg, hilarious, i am watching the local 10pm news. The big Catholic boys' school (therefore the big girls' school too) have changed the time of their prom to 3PM so that everyone can watch the LSU/Bama game. Welcome to the south, they just mentioned a $10,000 ticket

10:05 pm

herinfernallady

I was talking to a Bedlington Terrier breeder and she was taking back a pup because the owner got sick

10:05 pm

shdybr8

sorry, herin, breeders are not hilarious, i just keep jumping around in my gibbering

10:06 pm

herinfernallady

And yes Nef YIKES. It isn't bad but we are waiting for the other guy to get to us

10:06 pm

Nef

what's the matter with the car, herin?

10:06 pm

herinfernallady

Aircon compressor is dead

10:07 pm

herinfernallady

We are just grateful that there holiday money to cash out

10:07 pm

shdybr8

i like the responsible breeders, not the ones who think that breeding a male to his daughter is acceptable. Genetically that is inviting the sorts of inbred breed-oriented problems that we "accept" as normal nowadays

10:08 pm

herinfernallady

Shdy there is one Douge breeder that doesn't care about her stock which is really sad

10:08 pm

shdybr8

My big dog shouldn't have hip issues, my dalmatian shouldn't have ear issues, etc, etc, that's all inbreeding

10:09 pm

shdybr8

she should be shot - in the right big toe, then the left big toe, then the rest of the toes one at a time, then the right thumb..........

10:10 pm

herinfernallady

My friends Rotti was a pup street rescue lived to 4 years before his hips and hocks finally gave up

10:10 pm

shdybr8

sorry if that sounds crazy, i am from the south..

10:10 pm

herinfernallady

No Shdy that is my thought.

10:11 pm

Nef

and just a wee bit passionate about this topic, shdy? ;-)

10:11 pm

shdybr8

4 years is not acceptable. Hubby wants to buy a rott, when the market has them from 400 - 3000, he wants the 400. Healthy animal??

10:11 pm

shdybr8

Little bit, nef **sheepish grin**

10:12 pm

herinfernallady

jeebus Shady Can i kick those people in the nuts seriously Rotties need hip scores and responsible breeders do that and they also check for heart worm etc

10:12 pm

herinfernallady

My parents got a Staffy for $500 from a breeder sans papers

10:13 pm

shdybr8

but hubby was a complete idiot when we met and a slow learner. He still thinks the dad/daughter thing is fine, because they can be registered

10:13 pm

Nef

my sister is a vet; I don't think she's ever had a pet from a breeder. She doesn't really like it when people come in with certain breeds because she's pretty sure she knows who the breeders are

10:14 pm

herinfernallady

When i was a kid we got an Irish Setter from a breeder as an ex breeding dog. She was as dumb as a brush

10:15 pm

herinfernallady

But Nef part of responsible dog ownership is researching the breeder same as with kits

10:15 pm

shdybr8

i will make sure that by the time he gets another, it will be a rescue. Plus, he gave his last one away because he couldn't have it at his rental house. That is not an option in my world. I rented 3 bedroom houses for 12 years before I finally bought, because the house was for my dogs. This house, i bought the pool for Bear, and it came with a house

10:16 pm

Nef

our current dog (a shitz-poo is dumber than dirt; but cute. I always say he got through life on his looks (and we rescued him from being pout down too)

10:17 pm

herinfernallady

We wont have another dog until we buy our own place.

10:17 pm

shdybr8

my young (7) dog is dumb as dirt. When my ex found him he was about the size of my shoe and almost starved to death. Now he's 90 something pounds and the sweetest, dumbest, snarliest, idiot that i love

10:18 pm

herinfernallady

My friend just rescued 2 more kitties. She says she is fostering the ginger guy until he is big enough but i have a feeling that cat is going to stay with the other 3 cats

10:19 pm

shdybr8

the woman from the mastiff org asked me if could volunteer, i told her there is no way i can foster, i fall in love and cannot have tons of dogs.

10:19 pm

herinfernallady

Mastiffs what sort?

10:20 pm

shdybr8

especially with abused/abandoned dogs

10:20 pm

Nef

I'm a softy; that's why we have 2 cats (and I'm allergic to them!)

10:21 pm

shdybr8

i'm leaning towards bull, although the organization deals with bulla nd english. While the cane courso is gorgeous, i don't get the impression that i want to deal with one

10:21 pm

herinfernallady

The emergancy doctor i had to see as I was sick said I shouldn't have cats. He can bite me

10:21 pm

Nef

I could never foster pets because I'd want to keep all of them

10:21 pm

shdybr8

me too, nef

10:21 pm

shdybr8

lmao, herin, really

10:22 pm

herinfernallady

Yep. I have mild asthma.

10:22 pm

herinfernallady

If I just change the bed once a fortnight and vacuum it I am fine

10:23 pm

shdybr8

my tutee today looked around as we were sitting in the back yard, and laughed, said that she loves that my house is a menagerie - 3 dogs, 2 cats, everyone doing what they please

10:24 pm

herinfernallady

Yep. Animals rule our house

10:24 pm

shdybr8

hehe, i'm allergic to the air - dogs, cats, horses, (fur) birds (feathers) grass, trees (pollen) dust and mold. As a kid that translated into "You can't avoid the air, so just do whatever and take some shots" I was so lucky!

10:25 pm

shdybr8

Miss Cleo is curled up at my hip now, apparently kitty bed time

10:26 pm

herinfernallady

Awwww. My cats have taken over the pillows

10:26 pm

shdybr8

but are they sharing?

10:27 pm

herinfernallady

heck no. Pandora teh white has levels of hate not love. she just tolerates the otehr black cat lucius

10:27 pm

shdybr8

that is wonderful! except for lucius

10:28 pm

shdybr8

the black

10:28 pm

herinfernallady

Both rescues. Pandora has mental issues. She spent 6 months in a crappy caravan and wasn't feed properly and left alone alot

10:29 pm

shdybr8

so now it's her %#@!*ing pillow, end of conversation!

10:30 pm

herinfernallady

Yep. Well he is on it so too bad. She is behind on the other pillow sleeping on her head

10:30 pm

shdybr8

aren't they hilarious?! Tony and Cleo seep on their backs, legs fully extended every which way, laugh, laugh, laugh

10:31 pm

herinfernallady

Have you seen the kids pillows from ikea?

10:31 pm

shdybr8

no, i haven't

10:34 pm

herinfernallady

Just seeing if I can find an image

10:34 pm

shdybr8

we made the biggest mistake earlier, we got home, Scott said "have you seen Tony" i said no and called him, then went inside to feed old man Bear his canned/dry food mix. Next thing i knew there were these 2 insanely loud whiny crazy cats, thinking the can was for them! so i had to get bear's food and meds mixed, then quickly open a can for the cats, before they lost their minds, Cleo actually ran across the floor and hit her head on the freezer instead of jumping up to eat - goofy kids!

10:36 pm

shdybr8

i know i have pics, and i suspect i have your email somewhere, because i am much more likely to play with transfers of files between 4 and 7 am

10:37 pm

shdybr8

for that to make sense, replace the word "because" with "but"

http://tinyurl.com/43unaur This little guy. It comes with this separate inflatable innards but we didn't like that. We filled it with beans. As we don't have kids and the cats don't rip it up it is safe.

We filled it with bean bag beans

10:40 pm

shdybr8

so safe for the munchkin prr-kitties

herinfernallady

It is I would buy it for a dog and put stuffing in it the kind you get for toys.

10:41 pm

Nico (our little, um young, dog) loves squeakie toys, we get him one every time we go to petsmart to buy food

10:42 pm

herinfernallady

We got a stuffless toy that squeeks for lucius it is a dog toy

10:43 pm

shdybr8

fun - the old dogs couldn't possibly be less interested - if it isn't edible, they don't want it. Nico loves any toy you give him

10:43 pm

herinfernallady

What about peanut butter kongs?

10:44 pm

shdybr8

the older 2 never liked them before Nico appeared in my life, so haven't really bothered since. If it squeaks, Nico will love it, and he plays with the newest one, too

10:44 pm

shdybr8

goofy mutt

10:45 pm

herinfernallady

We find puzzle food balls fun

10:46 pm

shdybr8

old dogs don't care, in this house, nico is retarded, literally

10:46 pm

herinfernallady

awwww

10:47 pm

shdybr8

not politically correct, but he almost starved when he was very young and developing, and i think it caused brain damage, he is very loveable, but unbelievably dumb

10:48 pm

herinfernallady

For some reason the special ones appeal to me

10:49 pm

shdybr8

people don't believe me, you can't describe it, you have to witness it. Scott, for example, didn't believe me until he lived here, saw Nico, he is the most entertaining creature ever

10:50 pm

herinfernallady

Yep. Does he do the waking up confused look?

10:51 pm

shdybr8

You can't possibly be around him and not love him. Plus, if you need a smile or pick-me-up, Nico is perfect

10:52 pm

shdybr8

Honestly, no , he looks more confused when he's been up all day, kitty Cleo is the squinty-eyed, confused, looks like Mom when she wakes up!

10:52 pm

herinfernallady

We used to call DeeDee (Diesel) The Retarded Roti as there was nothing in his head

10:53 pm

shdybr8

If you lived on the same continent, i would invite you over to observe Mr. dumbus

10:53 pm

shdybr8

you would laugh

10:54 pm

herinfernallady

I love the weird dogs

10:54 pm

shdybr8

he is insanely loveable

10:54 pm

herinfernallady

I have 60 left this is stupid

10:55 pm

shdybr8

any time you need a laugh, seek out Nico, he will be sitting on the couch, on the back of his butt, like an old human man, with crazy eyes all bugged out and white on the edges. You can't help but laugh

10:56 pm

herinfernallady

Heheeh

10:57 pm

shdybr8
