1:27 am

we are driving up to MN for a week or so...hopefully no blizzards for the time we are there

1:28 am

her rels. came here for thanksgiving

1:28 am

VolleymomDee

for sure, this time of the year, you will have to cross your fingers... could be nasty

1:28 am

VolleymomDee

nice... how many hours to drive?

1:29 am

dart001

9.25 hr drive in the summer....at freeway speeds...hate to see how long it takes if we are going 35 mph

1:29 am

VolleymomDee

I would think most of the freeways will be clear until you reach MN.

1:30 am

dart001

sometimes during bad storms....drifts get too high and they can't control them...they just shut the freeways down and you are stuck in whatever town you happen to be in.

1:30 am

VolleymomDee

That would stink.

1:31 am

VolleymomDee

Well, I need to get a few more things to pack. I hope you have a great weekend.

1:32 am

VolleymomDee

See you at the flip!

1:32 am

dart001

I would say from kc to here ...not a problem usually...north of there can be anyones guess if a big storm comes thru....and you can always get an ice storm, even down here

Hi katie sorry was away for a minute, how are you?

2:20 am

KatieMcG

good thanks, just thinking about going back to bed for an hour - it's either that or put on the heating lol. How are you getting on?

2:21 am

Think mr mari is on and he turns off chat

2:22 am

bed sounds like a good idea, finish work tomorrow back on the 3rd

2:24 am

KatieMcG

Marzipan hearts for the 4th time!!! Bry is going to need a diet with the amount he has eaten. At least you get a good break for Christmas, shopping all done?

2:25 am

diem

As much as im doing,last year was off 5 months

2:26 am

KatieMcG

I've will have been off for 8 weeks, it's going to be one heck of a shock when I go back. I went in for a coffee and chat yesterday and that went well

2:28 am

diem

Heard they upped your retirement age to 67 OH JOY!!

2:29 am

KatieMcG

I know in the budget he froze my pay for another 2 years, made me work another 2 years and slagged off our pensions and increased our workload with new funding - I've now stopped watching the news!

2:30 am

KatieMcG

only another 24 years to go lol

2:30 am

diem

How come you were off 8 weeks?

2:32 am

KatieMcG

I've been off with stress. Having panic attacks but much better now can face people and going in to the office yesterday was a really big step. Be so glad to be well again. Mum, Dad & Bry have been great. No one in Scotland knows about it though.

2:35 am

diem

Scary thing to go through

2:37 am

KatieMcG

yeah but time off has sorted it and at least I will have a reasonable workload when I get back. Getting really good at breathing techniques as well! Cat's won't know what has hit them when I am out all day as they have got used to having me around. It will be a shock for me to have to wear suits instead of jeans and boots

2:37 am

KatieMcG

Hello Aloy

6:48 am

Aloyisius

hi Molly..

6:51 am

MollyL

It's quiet in here. Everyone must be making a list, and checking it twice.

6:51 am

Aloyisius

I'm sipping coffee and staring at some yellow boxes with letters in them

6:52 am

Aloyisius

waiting for my brain to kick into gear

6:52 am

Aloyisius

might not happen for a while

6:52 am

MollyL

My brain keeps telling me to go back to bed, which would be hard to do, since I'm at work.

6:53 am

Aloyisius

eek.. you start early, Molly

6:53 am

MollyL

Yes, but the up side to that is I finish early too.

6:55 am

Aloyisius

nice in the summer when the days are longer.. you could still do something fun if you had some energy left

6:58 am

MollyL

Nice this time of year too. I get home before it gets dark.

7:01 am

Aloyisius

when I taught I started at 7:20am, so it was dark when I left home.. no windows in the classroom.. and it was always dark on the trip home, so.. in the winter I called myself "a mole in a hole"..ugh

7:03 am

MollyL

No windows in the classroom would make me nuts.

7:05 am

Aloyisius

it was terrible.. so I put up huge colorful bird pictures and pretended..

7:08 am

MollyL

: ) That sounds like something I would do.

7:36 am

car.eeyore

Hi Angel. Thank you for the message. Of course, i will pray for her.

7:36 am

Aloyisius

thanks for relaying the message Angel..

7:36 am

hurshy

i heard that angel - is it that her husband died, or am i thinking of someone else?

7:37 am

Angelsong

yes, hurshy. Her husban died a month ago, and she told me he left many things a big mess that she is now having to deal with, and the strss is making her ill.

7:38 am

hurshy

:( poor mamabear

7:38 am

car.eeyore

Oh no. The poor thing. Is there anything we can do for her besides pray?

7:38 am

Angelsong

stress, I meant

7:38 am

Aloyisius

oh dear..

7:39 am

Angelsong

I asked if there was anything else,and she said the prayers help most. she really appreciaes it, also

7:40 am

Angelsong

her son has addiction issues, and her husband depended on him for care before his death. he had major helalth issues and was completely dependent.

7:43 am

Angelsong

at least her children arre all grown. that is a blessing.

8:25 am

wvteach

did you hit Refresh -

8:25 am

SeaSpray

Or do you have to change it there also?

8:26 am

wvteach

i saw it in your profile but had to hit Refresh to see it in the Chat

8:26 am

SeaSpray

hmmm...have refreshed several times...you can tell I'm not computer savy

8:27 am

uusue2

maybe if you quit out of expert and then restart it?

8:27 am

uusue2

it should change there automatically but probably it takes a few refreshes

8:27 am

SeaSpray

think I did that also, but will try...or just give up lol

8:29 am

SeaSpray

Ok, did it all if this doesn't work am throwing my hands up

8:29 am

uusue2

yeah, I wouldn't worry about it - at some point you will notice it has changed and say to yourself, gee, when did that happen? :-)

hi haz..thanks for the poem

10:30 am

westford

found a box that husband brought home from the liquor store..used it to bring home some wine...

10:30 am

Haz1558

I'm glad you like it.

10:31 am

westford

well guess what? you can't mail anything in a box that has anything to do with alcoholic beverages

10:31 am

Haz1558

Because?

10:32 am

westford

have no idea..it was an Andre's champagne box

10:33 am

Haz1558

Well, you'll know for again, I suppose, but I thought they would have explained the reason.

10:33 am

crosshair

hoser is a slang,laid on us by second city tv and good ole bob and dough mckenzie the americans way of saying they love us

10:33 am

westford

then DH put his glasses down on the sofa..I said 'better not leave them there, you might sit on them'

10:34 am

Haz1558

Let me guess. He'll know for again as well.

10:34 am

westford

a little later I was adjusting a display and I knelt on them and broke them

10:35 am

Haz1558

Pollyanna would be saying that we can be glad you now know better, but I've always felt that Pollyanna needed a good slap.

10:35 am

westford

but today is sunny and bright and I'm ready for anything

10:35 am

westford

lol haz..too true

10:35 am

westford

he found an optician who fixed them gratis

10:36 am

Haz1558

At least you didn't have to buy a new pair, so that's good.

10:37 am

MollyL

Haz, you are SO right about Pollyanna : )

10:38 am

Haz1558

I knew I couldn't be the only one to be annoyed by her.

11:02 am

periwinkle

hi all, just learned an important lesson. when mailing packages at the post office, use your own box. I thought that the flat rate would be cheaper but it cost me $10.95 and I am sure it would have been less packed in my own box. but the box I had at home was too big and I wanted it to get to my great neice and nephew asap. oh well,never again

11:02 am

crosshair

indeed,we used to carry eggs in those tall skinny alka seltzer bottle,you could crack 8 eggs into it,put the cap on and pour them out as needed

11:03 am

Wolvie

what a good idea! never tried that with eggs. will file that one for the future. :-)

11:03 am

crosshair

11:03 am

i probably could have sent the books, book rate and the other stuff in a very small box. but it is done and I will not do it that way again. if they were coming here for the holidays as planned I would not have to do this at all

11:05 am

Wolvie

well I will have to move out of my house in to a rental but probably not for a while (12-18 months although I am thinking about next summer)

12:33 pm

uusue2

and I hope my car will stay together for another few years

12:34 pm

MollyL

Renting has it's advantages. No tax deduction on the P&I but when something breaks, it's the landlord's problem.

12:34 pm

bichon

good luck for you sue, sounds like dire times

12:34 pm

uusue2

yes, exactly! and I can move out when I want to move on

12:35 pm

uusue2

thanks, bichon, didn't want it to come to this but it is out of my control at this point

12:35 pm

MollyL

The only drawback to renting is when the landlord decides to sell the property and you have 60 days to relocate. That happened to me once, years ago.

12:36 pm

uusue2

ah, that would be annoying

12:36 pm

uusue2

but right now it is a buyers market on rentals, especially here, as enrollment is down at the university

12:37 pm

bichon

yes, but they would have to evict you, and under some circumstances, it could be difficult for them

12:37 pm

MollyL

And no one seems to be able to sell property for much of a profit, so they are renting them instead. Hope you find a nice place.

12:38 pm

MollyL

No Bich, actually in Maryland, the standard renters lease says that either party can terminate the agreement with a 60 day notice.

12:38 pm

bichon

yes, but eviction is difficult. if you had a medical problem, or something like that, eviction is up to a judge

12:39 pm

uusue2

we will want a house that will take a large dog - I've looked briefly in the local classifieds and there are some available, for less than half what my mortgage payments have been

12:39 pm

bichon

When my d.i.l. was in her 9th month, the landlord kicked them out. They went to court and got a stay

12:40 pm

Appreciative sons are a commodity to be treasured, Molly!

5:14 pm

MollyL

Brown bread is one of those things that came over with the Boston Irish. Me Muther loved it.

5:14 pm

mab

nothing wrong with it, it is a traditional dish.

5:14 pm

Soodle

But white pudding ( or pudden, as its known as round these here parts) is more benign.

5:15 pm

Soodle

Brown bread is a delicacy which has to be tasted to be believed!

5:17 pm

Soodle

...........And soda bread..... don't get me started on soda bread...

5:19 pm

mab

now that I've had. and it was delicious.

I just love reading good news. I am so touched by this movement of people who are paying off layaway bills at Walmart. I want to be able to afford to do something like that some day.

6:54 pm

SeaSpray

You mean they are paying them for other people?

6:55 pm

MollyL

Yes, the story is on Yahoo. It's really very sweet. One lady (whose bill was paid) said "It made me believe in Christmas again."

6:56 pm

SeaSpray

Oh how wonderful! It breaks my heart to think there are children who receive nothing.

6:56 pm

Mom

I was reading that

6:57 pm

Mom

I was at a luncheon today and one of the ladies was telling us that there are 782 children in this one housing project. Their church was gathering books to give to the children. They were well over 100 short so they are collecting again

6:58 pm

Mom

I am a true believer in paying it forward
