Hello Haz. Very sad to read about your Aunt. What an awful couple of weeks for you

5:59 am

lynxxx

Hello everyone else too

5:59 am

car.eeyore

Good morning !

6:00 am

lynxxx

hi Car

6:00 am

Haz1558

Hello, lynxxx. It's been an awful shock, we'd been patiently waiting for the surgery but didn't really imagine she wouldn't pull through.

6:00 am

car.eeyore

6:01 am

Haz1558

I visited her last Friday and she was in good form. I'll remember her with great affection.

6:01 am

lynxxx

I know they always warn you about the dangers of surgery but I guess nobody ever really believes it.

6:02 am

lynxxx

Is she the last one of that generation in your family?

6:03 am

Haz1558

There is just one uncle left - he is so distraught because they were very close.

6:03 am

lynxxx

Oh dear

6:03 am

Haz1558

They were evacuated to the country during the war and loved to talk about their experiences.

6:04 am

Haz1558

It was actually while visiting them in the country village that my mother met my father (a native of the village). He used to say that he saw her walking down the street and fell in love.

6:06 am

lynxxx

a lovely story

6:07 am

lynxxx

The uncle lives close to you?

6:07 am

Haz1558

The funny thing was that when my mother passed away, friends had come to pay their respects. We told them the story, showed a picture of my mother at that age and the husband said 'I'd have fallen in love with her too!'

6:08 am

Haz1558

He lives about 30 miles away, lynxxx, and has had a hip replacement recently but is otherwise in good health.

6:08 am

lynxxx

the looks have been passed down the female side of the family obviously

6:10 am

Haz1558

I don't know - I'm more like my father in looks although the older I get the more I realise I'm like my mother in personality. I could never match her for energy, though.

6:11 am

Haz1558

She and my aunt were demon housecleaners. We used to laugh when they did the dishes together. The kitchen got springcleaned at the same time and they used to cross each other with cloths in hand and determined looks on their faces.

6:11 am

lynxxx

Really?! she must have been a whirlwind because you don't seem to stop

6:12 am

lynxxx

(and of course they weren't distracted by Babble)

6:13 am

Haz1558

She was amazing. I have fond memories of coming home from school and being asked earnestly 'Well, do you see the difference?' (She'd be red in the face with cloth in hand) I'd protest that I couldn't see any difference at all and she'd reply indignantly 'If you'd SEEN the dirt that came off this place!'

I wonder if there's any quick way of doing a list?

6:18 am

Housework is a thankless task, no-one ever notices any difference unless it was diabolical to start with. Gardening is almost as bad.

6:18 am

Haz1558

I did one before by pasting to word and then deleting the letters but it's pretty time-consuming.

6:19 am

Haz1558

Housework is something you do that nobody notices unless you don't do it.

6:19 am

Haz1558

I know - but I'd still rather do it than not!

6:20 am

Okay, taking a break to get warmed up a bit. See you later.

So, are the bum knees hereditary or a side affect of all the cancer chemicals?

11:51 am

rubyfoo

pcal2

11:58 am

cybernan

feeling dense -- don't know the erem*** and don't see the ma 8 either

11:58 am

cybernan

we call pounding meat with a mallet tenderizing

11:59 am

cybernan

and chewing masticating

11:59 am

rubyfoo

I was wrong with my definition

11:59 am

Creeta

it actually means to soak/soften. You do with fruit in cooking.

11:59 am

pcal2

nan think fresh fruit setting with sugar on it

11:59 am

crosshair

i keep looking for masticate and am blinded

11:59 am

cybernan

no idea -- never use anything but fresh fruit

11:59 am

rubyfoo

sugar and brandy

11:59 am

rubyfoo

start with the spice, crossy

12:00 pm

cybernan

I don't know--- don't make whatever that is

12:00 pm

helensgirlkid

leave out the first t, use an e instead of an i . . .

12:00 pm

rubyfoo

I think it's called "rumtopf" or something - you put the fruit in a crock with sugar and alcohol and leave it for months

12:01 pm

cybernan

what spice? -- something new in the recipe?

12:01 pm

rubyfoo

seems to me it would totter drunkenly away....

12:01 pm

crosshair

lol,sounds like home made booze

12:01 pm

rubyfoo

ma4/6

12:01 pm

cybernan

rum pot? -- have a friend that makes that, but all she does is wash the fruit and pour rum over it

12:01 pm

rubyfoo

I've made creme de cassis and creme de murs with my own fruit, neither one particularly good

12:02 pm

crosshair

ty ruby,i just took the spray that blinds people and used morewords for the rest

12:02 pm

cybernan

still have no idea what the ma 8 could be -- how many points?

12:03 pm

MollyL

A spice that most people don't use a lot of. Think of what you spray in an attackers face

12:03 pm

Creeta

50

12:03 pm

rubyfoo

funny, molly, I didn't even think of that. Is it the same stuff?

12:04 pm

crosshair

12:04 pm

rubyfoo

from hot red peppers

12:04 pm

crosshair

12:04 pm

MollyL

No Ruby, not the same stuff. ma4 is a pepper spray, a club and a spice.

12:57 pm

crosshair

Poet and pre-Raphaelite painter Dante Gabriel Rosetti loved his wife, Elizabeth. How much did he love his wife, you ask? Well, after she died of a laudanum overdose in 1862, he buried her with the only existing copy of his unpublished poems. Seven years later, however, Rosetti found himself suffering from a really bad case of writersâ€™ block, so he dug up her body and retrieved his poems. They were published in 1870 and were well received by critics, but he never forgave himself for pilfering them from her grave.

a little blurb from that blog: "A girl made a birthday card for a boy in our class, then every student signed it. I didn't check the card before we gave it to the birthday boy, but I wish I had. This was the message written on the front:

Sometimes you smile and sometimes you don't. Is it because your life is difficult? People make mistakes but it's your special day. "

4:29 pm

difficult, LBD, just a difficult place. This is my third time here and not stellar so far.

oh no.. another from that blog: During our math lesson on fractions we discussed the difference between the numerator and the denominator. I asked the kids for good tricks to avoid mixing the two up. One kid said "Well, you gotta think about them like people. The person on the bottom is the dominator because they're in charge!"

Disturbing AND incorrect. Yikes.

4:33 pm

stidmama

that's what I am thinking, LBD. Right know I can handle it. And every difficult experience gives me more knowledge for the next time.

I've just had to remove the cat from the bathroom. He's been lying in front of the washbasin there since 8pm. He likes to lie on the floor above the hot water pipes and use the bathroom rug as a blanket. I picked him up and told him to take himself downstairs to his bedroom (the utility room) and he just lay down on the landing floor by the top step and became floppy velcro cat when I tried to pick him up. He was so relaxed, I think I could have done that 'How To Wrap A Cat For Christmas' thing on him!

Jacula

Hello Herin.

7:38 pm

MollyL

7:38 pm

Jacula

TO - glad you have them.x

7:38 pm

72 Temple Owl

so am i x

7:39 pm

dianedecoder

that makes two of us then, Molly :-))

7:39 pm

majmom

oc 9 any clues?

7:39 pm

EvaNadine

evenin babblers!

7:39 pm

Jacula

majmom - rhyme with 8 metric feet.

7:40 pm

Shirlockc

the prefix for 8 and then unit of measurement

7:40 pm

Jacula

Hi EvaN.

7:40 pm

dianedecoder

thanks Shirl !.... good clue

7:40 pm

majmom

7:41 pm

dianedecoder

HI Eva, Hi Jacula

7:41 pm

Jacula

I have NO idea what Diane and Molly are talking about re Mr. Baldy (Yul Brinner.)

7:41 pm

herinfernallady

I don't think the 8's are real

7:42 pm

Jacula

Herin - they are. Type them in and suspend your disbelief.

7:42 pm

EvaNadine

hi jac, hi diane.
hi molly, hi herin.

7:42 pm

dianedecoder

from the movie The King and I ( aka, Anna and the King of Siam ) When Yul, the king wanted to impress people with facts he didn't really know anything about, he would say a few words and then that et8 word.....

7:43 pm

EvaNadine

thanks diane. got that one right away. :)

7:43 pm

herinfernallady

Jac I mean they aren't in the grid. They are hiding. Hello back

7:43 pm

MollyL

Hi Eva, how is sad husband doing?

7:43 pm

dianedecoder

I loved that movie !

7:43 pm

Jacula

Did I just type 'when we right it'?? Shock! Horror! How many more screamers can I add to this post?!!! I meant 'write'. x

7:44 pm

MollyL

Diane, I could watch the "Shall We Dance" scene over and over. It's one of the best dance scenes in a movie ever.

7:44 pm

EvaNadine

husband is ok, thanks. :)

7:44 pm

Jacula

Thanks, Diane. I saw that film back in the 60s and so didn't remember the detail.

7:44 pm

72 Temple Owl

s'ok jacs

7:44 pm

dianedecoder

That was VERY long for a clue, Eva... I was just explaining the reference to Yul Brynner to Jacula

7:44 pm

herinfernallady

Eva what happened?

7:45 pm

EvaNadine

herin, i think you saw on FB. we had a pet death earlier int he week.

7:45 pm

herinfernallady

O yes. The lizard :(

7:45 pm

EvaNadine

diane: meanwhile, im still noodling the OC8...heh

7:46 pm

Jacula

EvaN - I didn't see that on FB, but sorry to hear it. Too many deaths lately, both animal and human.

7:46 pm

dianedecoder

I don't have it either, Eva

7:47 pm

EvaNadine

TY jac. hubby was very upset about it. broken down in tears, ugly-crying. i felt horrible for him.

7:47 pm

Jacula

oc8 = first 3 letters of the 10th month of the year, then a vowel, then a thing that measures stuff.

7:48 pm

Jacula

I guess he loved that lizard, EvaN.

7:48 pm

EvaNadine

he cared for that lizard more than most people

7:48 pm

dianedecoder

oops... I did have it from a very good clue given earlier

7:48 pm

herinfernallady

Awww Poor Hubby Eva. Animals regardless of species each have their own special quirks

7:48 pm

herinfernallady

That 8 isn't there

7:49 pm

EvaNadine

wow. why can i not get this OC8?

7:49 pm

herinfernallady

Ok that got me the 9

7:49 pm

dianedecoder

don't be looking for a second "O" herin

7:50 pm

Minveryork

Good evening to my fellow babblers! How is everyone?

7:50 pm

Minveryork

By the way, congratulations to all the finishers! YAY!

7:50 pm

Jacula

For those of you that don't know, Haz not only had to have Spangle put to sleep and watch her big, strong vet hubby fall apart as it happened, then Fiona, her Babble and real life friend died, and then, just for a turn of the screw, her aunt died on the operating table. I was reading what Haz said aout her Mum and her aunt in the chog much earlier - they were demon housewives.

7:50 pm

Jacula

Hi Min.

7:50 pm

dianedecoder

Hi Min.... good to see you :-)

7:51 pm

herinfernallady

HI min.

7:51 pm

EvaNadine

oh dear, jac. i didnt know about Spangle! and her aunt too?!
oh, poor haz must be a raw nerve by now.

7:51 pm

Dorens

jac .. haz must be feeling like job right about now. wish we could do something for her

7:52 pm

Jacula

I see a lot of people are still posting lists. I can see no problem with Lickety's list now (don't use Expert, so can't comment on that).

7:52 pm

Minveryork

My heart goes how to Haz!What an awful time for her

7:52 pm

dianedecoder

I checked out Lickety's.... it's yesterday's grid

7:52 pm

LuvWordGames

7:52 pm

Minveryork

herinfernallady

SO there is no OC8 and you have all made me nuts?

7:54 pm

Jacula

Dorens - don't know, 'cos I didn't use the list. Not because I 'hate' it, like MrP seems to think right now, but because I've been Babbling for a long time and get most of the words. When weird words appear, I always appreciate a list.

7:55 pm

rururocks

ma 6/30 ? anyone

EvaNadine

7:58 pm

Dorens

i had a hellish week and next week doesn't promise to be much better. taking granddaughter to see the nutcracker on sunday, which will be the highlight of the week. driving up and back from boston in order to do it is taking time away from many other things... oh well

7:58 pm

72 Temple Owl

hello doren. hi min

7:58 pm

saanichcat

hi there Min! I'm "lurking" and doing stuff at the same time so I don't usually get a chance to chat. Back now to finish up the grisly last 30.

7:58 pm

herinfernallady

Dorens the ballet?

7:59 pm

Dorens

yes indeedy. has become an annual thing for us. lots of fu really

7:59 pm

Jacula

My Mum and my Beloved seem to think I'm developing pluerisy after this 3-week cold virus I've had. They may be right. I hope they're not. However, if I disappear for a while soon, they might have been right.

7:59 pm

herinfernallady

O I wanna go (bottom lip pout)

8:00 pm

herinfernallady

O Jac not good. My friend is still all out of sorts from August thingy that he got

8:00 pm

Dorens

8:02 pm

72 Temple Owl

nice to see you jacs and ty for the clues earlier. time to go

8:02 pm

Jacula

Dorens - that's comforting to hear. Did they also have pains in both shoulder blades when trying to breathe and feel like all the energy had been drained out of them? Please tell me they did!

8:02 pm

herinfernallady

Dorens I have only once seen the proper Nutcracker Ballet when I was 5. I saw the Australian version a few years back it was lovely. It was one of the elder Prima Ballerina's last season

8:02 pm

Dorens

night owl

8:02 pm

Jacula

'Bye TO. See you again.

8:02 pm

rururocks

mi 6 please

8:02 pm

Dorens

not sure about the shoulder blades. but pain trying to breathe and energy definitely drained out

8:03 pm

lbdawger

desert phenomenon, seeing things not there

8:03 pm

MollyL

Dorens, I think your Christmas outing with grand-girlie is one of the sweetest things I have ever heard about. I hope you two have special fun together.

8:03 pm

majmom

meterite

8:03 pm

Dorens

funny herin. and phoebe is 5 now. but, spoiled child that she is, this is her third nutcracker. she now is a ballerina, however, who can do things on her tippytoes and has a tutu and real pink ballet toe shoes and dreams of being in it

8:03 pm

Jacula

mi6/27 - desert thing imagined.

8:04 pm

herinfernallady

Dorens the one I saw was The Nutcracker - Clara's Story

8:04 pm

herinfernallady

awwwwwwwwwwwww

8:04 pm

Jacula

mi6/21 - to do with heart valves.

8:04 pm

rururocks

thank you.I"m missing even the easy ones in this grid

8:04 pm

herinfernallady

Dorens: http://ballerinaproject.com/ Pheobe will LOVE this site

8:04 pm

Dorens

last time i was there, we discussed clothes. I was asked to purchase PEARLS for her. And i did (amazon. real cheapies). and i asked her what type of dress she wanted and was told black, purple, pink or rainbow

8:05 pm

Jacula

Dorens - thank you for the reassurance. Maybe I'm not quite a death's door yet. x

8:05 pm

Dorens

So i have a black and purple velvet dress to bring, along with the pearls, and a headband with pearls, and asked her this evening if she has black tights and she said buy them for me PLEASE. so i have my orders

8:06 pm

Dorens

jac. i sure hope i'm right. and if not, don't sue me for malpractice. my insurance has lapsed

8:06 pm

Dorens

herin, will check it out

8:06 pm

herinfernallady

It is a ballet site. OMG Dorens so super adorable.

8:06 pm

Jacula

Dorens - I won't unless desperate!

8:06 pm

JenMO16

hi everyone

8:07 pm

Jacula

Grandchildren sure sound like tyrants! I can say this, since I don't have any yet.

8:07 pm

MollyL

<---Wants pictures of cutie pie in her Nutcracker finery.

8:07 pm

herinfernallady

Hi Jen.

8:07 pm

Dorens

you will keep me posted, jacs i hope

8:07 pm

Jacula

Hello Jen.

8:07 pm

JenMO16

i am glad this week is over

8:07 pm

Dorens

she knows i'm a sucker for her and will buy her anything. it is so pathetic. yet i am sterner than her parents about some things. Molly i hope i will get a picture.

8:08 pm

MollyL

I think grandchildren sound like magic. Can't wait!

8:08 pm

Jacula

Dorens I'll try - unless death's trapdoor opens, which it had better NOT. My friend Hazel has had enough on her pl5/12 lately, without adding me to the mix.

8:08 pm

Dorens

and the little boy in the picture intends to join us next year. it will be her call. and yes they certainly are

8:09 pm

herinfernallady

Dorens you are a Grandma that is your job

8:09 pm

Dorens

oh jac you bite your tongue! don't you dare think of even joking like that... at least not now, not to haz!!!

8:09 pm

herinfernallady

Jac knock it off.

8:09 pm

Jacula

Molly - I remember watching my mother-in-law lay eyes on her firstborn grandchild (my son) and watching a woman fall in love. I didn't believe you could actually see that happening before I saw it.

8:09 pm

Dorens

in about two years, herin, i just might retire and become a fulltime grandma. i think i'd just love that

8:10 pm

herinfernallady

Dorens I really think Phoebe will love the ballerina project. The pictures are so pretty

8:10 pm

Jacula

Sorry - black humour. Won't do any more.

8:10 pm

rururocks

lol

8:11 pm

Jacula

Haz would get the humour though, I promise you.

8:11 pm

Dorens

my son is flying to europe on the 8th for ten days.. and daughter in law might need to travel for her business... in which case, grandma will just have to leave school and drive back up to boston... and that will be just fine

8:11 pm

Dorens

sure she would, that is quite true... as fmitch would have for sure

8:11 pm

Jacula

Maybe not on the internet, but in person she would.

8:11 pm

MollyL

I believe it Jac. I dream on a regular basis about falling in love with my grands to be.

8:11 pm

herinfernallady

O gee Dorens that is terrible :P

8:12 pm

Dorens

actually the kids are so much more fun when their parents aren't around!!

8:12 pm

Dorens

and molly you will. but all in good time

8:13 pm

herinfernallady

I miss my Grandma but am very very blessed to be adopted by himselfs Gran. She is so feisty.

8:13 pm

snags

I have to add my 2 cents about grandkids. I have 3 grandsons that live a few blocks away. They are the loves of my life.......

8:13 pm

Jacula

Dorens, of course they are! They know their grandparents are a soft touch and aren't gonna snitch on them to their nasty strict parents.

8:14 pm

herinfernallady

Lucky Snags

8:14 pm

snags

I am truly blessed....... amen.

8:14 pm

Dorens

jac it is so different these days. Both parents work, and they don't all get home from daycare, school, etc until 6 - 6:30. so they don't have a lot of time together. The parents are so fantastic though... so as much as they love me, if parents are there I don't really interact with them as well as I do when they have no one but me to turn to

8:14 pm

dianedecoder

I have 10 grandkids.... the 7th one just entered her 20's today.... 3 more still in their teens .... They are a joy !

8:15 pm

bichon

I thought I would never have grandchildren. Got two in '07 and one in '09.

8:15 pm

herinfernallady

I have an idea for my friends little ones first Christmas but first I have to run it past mum and dad which SUCKS as I would love to surprise them

8:15 pm

snags

ditto that diane.

8:15 pm

rururocks

re7 please

8:15 pm

herinfernallady

WOW Diane

8:15 pm

herinfernallady

I think Grandma is on 20 Grand kids and so many greats and I think 3 great great

8:15 pm

snags

nice bichon.

8:16 pm

Dorens

i am actually stricter than their parents. I am fussy about what she wears, what they eat, how they behave, etc. The parents allow a lot more "self-determination" than I ever did. She has gone to school without brushing her hair or changing her clothes more often than I can stand.

8:16 pm

dianedecoder

and one great grandbaby... I see her on Skype several times a week so that hopefully she won't make strange with me when we return home at Christmas.

8:16 pm

rururocks

never mind .. I found it

8:16 pm

Dorens

lucky and smart, diane

8:16 pm

Jacula

And here is me still wondering if I will ever be a grandma.

8:16 pm

snags

hang in there Jac

8:16 pm

Dorens

sorry ru. was it to serve again?

8:16 pm

bichon

Just when you give up hope Jacula.

8:17 pm

rururocks

no.. thanks doren I found it

8:17 pm

herinfernallady

My Mother has given up on me. I think she is going to ship me the shoe box of stuff from my child hood. Said give them to friends but I think I will frame them

8:17 pm

bichon

re 7?

8:17 pm

Jacula

I've a feeling my stepdaughter might get me there first, but that's not blood...

8:17 pm

Dorens

i have a friend at work who is probably dottier about her stepgrandkids than I am about my real ones

8:18 pm

saanichcat

bichon, to fix silver so it shines again

8:18 pm

Jacula

bichon - re7 - to coat with me5/12 again or to put a me4/15 onto another pl5/12.

8:18 pm

Shirlockc

or set the table again with the dishes

8:18 pm

herinfernallady

We moved a bit as a kid so my mother kept one or two pairs of booties and stuff from each family member in a shoe box. That and we lived in the bush as a kid so we had to be fire ready

8:19 pm

bichon

ty Shirl and saan

8:19 pm

Dorens

last fo please?

8:19 pm

saanichcat

yw!

8:19 pm

Jacula

Herin - your adopted Mother?

8:19 pm

herinfernallady

Yep

8:19 pm

wvteach

"real blood" doen's matter as much as the bond you develop - we are traveling this weekend with my "special grandson" who has been a part of my life for 7 years - our bond is as strong as my other two "real" grindkids

8:19 pm

herinfernallady

My Mum

8:20 pm

Jacula

Dorens - fo + nasty little thing that might make you itch.

8:20 pm

rururocks

I think the list in Babb anon is wrong

8:20 pm

Dorens

ty, jacs

8:21 pm

wvteach

yes it is missing the last ma 5

8:21 pm

Dorens

well then ru, when you finish will you post us one? how many words have you left?

8:21 pm

Jacula

wvteach - almost 4 years on, I hope that bond will develop. She's nice and I'm nice, but the lurve isn't quite there.

8:21 pm

herinfernallady

Wv I am an ''Aunt'' to my best friends girl. Wouldn't have it any other way. Except the kid having less relatives for hand me downs so I could really spoil her rotten

8:21 pm

rururocks

i have 11 leftright now doren

8:22 pm

Jacula

Ruru - is it? In what way? If it's wrong I'll do my own list.

8:22 pm

Dorens

would love to trade places

8:22 pm

rururocks

the ta's are all wrong

8:22 pm

lbdawger

babanon list is kinda screwy. check out volleymomdee for a better list.

8:23 pm

Shirlockc

thx for pointing that out ruru, thought i was going nuts

8:24 pm

Jacula

last ma5 - Hebrew word for the last reading from the weekly Torah.

8:24 pm

rururocks

no other explanation shirl

8:25 pm

Jacula

ma6/30 or last ma5??

8:26 pm

Jacula

Last ma5 is one who tries to procreate.

8:26 pm

Jacula

ma6.30 is the Hebrew word I just mentioned.

8:26 pm

Dorens

excited that i finished the f's without looking at the list, whether or not it works. but need 6 more m''s and haven't even begun to compare my list with the babanon list. darn. this takes so long

8:26 pm

Jacula

Last ma5 could also be your mother.

8:27 pm

Jacula

Sorry, I didn't check the BabAnon list since the Lickety list seemed to be working okay.

8:29 pm

Jacula

Incidentally, I think the problem is on my side mostly and not on my stepdaughter's.

8:29 pm

rururocks

tr7 please

8:29 pm

Dorens

which problem is that jac?

8:30 pm

Jacula

Dorens - me not feeling the love that I really want to and think I 'should'.

8:31 pm

Dorens

from what you've told me, i think that might be understandable jac

8:31 pm

lbdawger

prefix for 3 + not from + not pa

8:31 pm

8:35 pm

Dorens

8:36 pm

Jacula

I might wander off shortly to do the cold butt on the nice, warm sleeping one in the bed already thing. Once he's shocked and awake, I will turn around and embrace his nice furry belly in a bear hug until he wriggles away to escape to the bathroom. Heh!xx:-))

No chest hair to speak of crossy? I am disappointed. Am intrigued to know what names your existing chest hairs have though? Knights of the Round Table names, perchance?

My love gets a little cross when I go phwoar when I see blond Viking types on TV, He wasn't so cross when I became enamoured of Jason Momoa, a dark Hawaiian gy he played Ron Dex in 'Stargate Atlantis', but he still looked a little cross. I'm supposed to put up with his Kylie calendars right in front of my face every year in the office, though. Love ain't easy!

men like the eye candy true,but nothing beats a lady that knows you,how to make you laugh and how to support you when you are down,to overlook your faults ,a woman who you can sit under a shady tree all day with and talk about nothing at all..all night long,good women are often those who are not ravishing beauties

Trowel Face - when one has applied so make up on they may as well have used a trowel

8:58 pm

And am

9:08 pm

Jacula

Okay, Herin.x

9:09 pm

Jacula

Are you sure?

9:09 pm

crosshair

perhaps not,long time love and marriage is a tad different,you mature like a fine wine,you know what is worth fighting over and what is not,you learn that some things hurt and pass over some issues in silence for peace in the house.it is about give and take and growing together and becoming one as time passes

9:09 pm

Yes but I love teasing Crossie

and good fight is good about once a month,it reestablishes boundries :) and make up cuddles are the best

9:11 pm

herinfernallady

Nope no point

9:12 pm

Jacula

I wasn't fighting. I'm a bit (a lot) worried tht my daughter and her new love thik it's okay to fight and then not speak for a week. She thinks that's love. I disagree.

9:12 pm

jesdraggon

don't fight, crossy. just have a good wrestling match instead:)

9:12 pm

crosshair

not speaking is the worst

9:13 pm

crosshair

you have to talk

9:13 pm

herinfernallady

No that is emotional abuse

9:13 pm

Jacula

Talking is good, fighting is not good.

9:13 pm

crosshair

you have to keep the lines of communication open

9:13 pm

Dorens

true, but kids are kids... they have to learn... did you know all that at their age?

9:14 pm

we did

9:14 pm

dunno, dorens. don't know how old jac's kid is

emotional abuse is the the most sly kind. It can rid a person of all their self worth.

9:15 pm

same 1st 3 letters as the 4 above it + a period of years

9:15 pm

now i know nothing and take each day as it comes ,and try to laugh,and learn something new every day,and talk with my wife about some trivial bit of info i gleaned from the daily paper,and go for walks in the woods when we have no money..and that is fine with me

9:16 pm

Jacula

Jess - I have 3 children - a son aged 27, a daughter aged 25 and a stepdaughter who is almost 17. I thought I knew everything at all of their ages. LOL

9:17 pm

jesdraggon

Then yes, dorens...at 25, I knew the difference between a healthy relationship and what jac describes.

9:19 pm

Dorens

unfortunately, a lot of folks don't at that age... and therin lies a whole lot of problem

9:19 pm

crosshair

not talking and dodging each other around the house in cold icy silence is not good

9:19 pm

herinfernallady

I can't talk because at that age I was just moving out of my abusive ex's

9:19 pm

Dorens

we are trying to teach it in the schools now. "conflict resolution" mediation, how to talk out differences

9:20 pm

Jacula

But I'm still concerned about my daughter, who, it seems to me, is frantically looking for love and not really seeing what love is. She's living in Brashov, Romania right now and thank God had a b/f whose Mum is not oly a doctor but also a good Mum and a good cook. The boyfriend however, might not be so good.

9:21 pm

Jacula

Jes - I was describing my ex-hub and me. I marrid him at 19.

9:22 pm

crosshair

my mrs also came from an abusive relationship before we got together herin,i saw what was going on and "discussed" with this fella that a woman should not be sporting bruises like that,and it was amazing afer a second "discussion" he decided that he was going out west to find work.my beloved was free..but it took one year for her not to flinch when i came in for a hug...i understand too well

9:22 pm

Jacula

I was hoping to meet the Boyfriend at Christmas, but have just been told he's not coming over her with her now.

9:23 pm

jesdraggon

is that the kind of discussion you have with baseball bats in back alleys, crossy?

9:23 pm

crosshair

we just had a friendly talk,and it was amazing,he saw the error of his ways

9:24 pm

herinfernallady

Cross I did that with the other half 3 or 4 years later. i flinched when he went to move his hair

9:24 pm

herinfernallady

(WHy do I picture this friendly discussion containing a baseball bat)

9:24 pm

crosshair

crossy looks around with an innocent lok...

9:24 pm

crosshair

look

9:24 pm

Jacula

Crossy - mine was an emotionally abusive relationship, but I can imagine where yuor wife was coming from. Glad you rescued her and that she allowed you to and found you nice enough to stay with.

9:25 pm

jesdraggon

and hides the stick behind his back... :P

9:26 pm

Jacula

Herin - sometimes this light and frothy talk on Babble hides much deeper stuff. I know you know that.x

9:26 pm

crosshair

the poor fella,he fall down and i helped him up.he wnt to get in his car and banged his head,then i went to walk him to his house and it was insane he tripped over a lawn sprinkler and gave himself a black eye

9:27 pm

scribekd

is there a list? the list in babanon doesn't appear to be correct.

9:27 pm

Jacula

How 'unfortunate' he was that day, Crossy. you'd never credit it, would you? That's how luck goes though.:-)

9:27 pm

crosshair

i am honored every day that my victoria was secure enough to allow me to be with her and to wed her and to spend the rest of my life with her

9:27 pm

herinfernallady

Cross my best friend claims she was sleeping when she rolled her cheating ex up in a sleeping bag and hit him with the bat

9:28 pm

good for her,my mrs hit hers ex in the head with a cast iron frying pan

9:28 pm

Jacula

He must've had a cast iron skull if she didn't rack it then,

9:29 pm

herinfernallady

I am lucky that one of my ex's (he married my best friend) has unfortunate looking children

9:29 pm

he lived,then sexually aboused his neice and spent 5 years in jail and picked up all kinds of wonderful things from shared tatoo needles..sometimes karma is a bitch

Is tea tree oil based shampoo bad for cats? I was reading it can be like playing russian rulete

9:33 pm

herinfernallady

Jac his and her kids are ugly

9:33 pm

Jacula

Do Tell more Herin. Sorry. Didn't mean to shout.

9:33 pm

jesdraggon

yes, tea tr4 oil is bad for cats.

9:34 pm

herinfernallady

Cheers. I am trying to think of something safe for Pandora stinky pants

9:34 pm

crosshair

who feeds that oil to cats anyways

9:34 pm

Jacula

Tea tree, unless very very diluted is NOT good for cats.

9:34 pm

jesdraggon

many essential oils are--for one thing, cats are more sensitive to a lot of things than humans are, for another, they will typically ingest anything you put on them, so even if it doesn't cause a skin reaction, it can cause gi issues.

9:34 pm

herinfernallady

I don't mean feed it to them but bath her

9:34 pm

Jacula

crossy - it's more of an ointment when they get in fights etc., re cats.

9:34 pm

crosshair

ahh sorry,misunderstood

9:34 pm

jesdraggon

she'll lick it off.

9:35 pm

herinfernallady

No I meant it to help her with fleas and itches

9:35 pm

you're much better served to use a shampoo actually designed for use on cats.

9:37 pm

herinfernallady

Hi KJe

9:37 pm

jesdraggon

According to the American Cancer Society: "Tea tree oil is toxic when swallowed. It has been reported to cause drowsiness, confusion, hallucinations, coma, unsteadiness, weakness, vomiting, diarrhea, stomach upset, blood cell abnormalities, and severe rashes. It should be kept away from pets and children."

9:37 pm

kje

hi

9:37 pm

jesdraggon

Really? there are a variety of shampoos for cats and kittens available in grocery stores here.

9:37 pm

Jacula

Frontline is your best attack for fleas, mites, ticks etc., on both cats and dogs.

9:38 pm

jesdraggon

if you can't find something labeled for kittens, you can probably use human baby shampoo; i'd dilute it half and half with water.

9:38 pm

Dorens

have had cats for years and have always been impressed with their ability to keep themselves clea. never used shampoo

9:38 pm

herinfernallady

We go to the vet for the flea stuff. Get that squishy on the back of the neck stuff. Dorens my cat wasn't taught to bath herself

9:38 pm

Jacula

kje - does it? Blimey? Who's done that already then?

9:38 pm

jesdraggon

if you're trying to control fleas, no shampoo will really be that effective though; better to use both a monthly treatment (advantage, frontline, etc) and treat the environment.

9:39 pm

Dorens

gosh, i always thought it was instinct!

9:39 pm

ok, gonna start asking for clues... get ready

Erda

10:36 pm

Uneaixoise

10:36 pm

cybernan

erda -- they do this as a favour for us -- publishing anything on the internet everyday is a hassle at the best of times -- put yourself in their shoes!

10:36 pm

Erda

I never start anything that I don't intend to finish

10:37 pm

cybernan

well bully for you -- maybe you should take on the job of creating a list every day -- it must be wonderful to be perfect

10:48 pm

pcal2

sorry for your loss Kaz. My dad died over 20 years ago and I still think about and miss him every day.

10:49 pm

Kazzer99

thanks pcal - I think now that Mum is safe the shock is beginning to hit me. At one point we thought we would lose both of them. Mum has decided to fit back though which is good

10:49 pm

Uneaixoise

hugs to you, kazzer -- my mom died in January and it's been really hard dealing with the holidays . . .

10:50 pm

Uneaixoise

10:50 pm

cybernan

10:51 pm

Uneaixoise

tx nan

10:51 pm

Kazzer99

thanks Une as well - main reason I am up now - was having a series of weird dreams about him and decided I'd rather be up and exercising brain than not sleeping

10:51 pm

pcal2

when my dad died, my mom was hospitalized at the same time and it was a really hard time for all of us. She also fought back and lived another 14 years.

10:52 pm

Kazzer99

Mum ended up in hospital on the day of the funeral = before it happened - they reckon it was the shock and several on going illnesses that she hadn't bothered to get checked out

10:53 pm

cybernan

ca 8, please? -- is it an extension of the 7?

10:53 pm

Kazzer99
