6:40 am
Glantarell
lots of yarn and craft stuff hiding under the bed LOL
6:40 am
lynxxx
Hope it all slots into place for you - bet you can't wait
6:40 am
lynxxx
How long have you been in this place?
6:40 am
Glantarell
i can't wait but i iwsh i could wave a magic wand and find myself in the 22-1-12 and already moved - just think of all the packing, unpacking, cleaning and moving word I'd miss!
6:41 am
Glantarell
i ahve lived here 11 years - the longest I've lived anywhere in my life - and although IO'm not a hoarder or collector I do seem to have accumulated lots in the last 11 years
6:43 am

Ever since my parents died have been clearing my 'stuff' regularly. Its so awful having to clear my parents belongings that I would hate that to happen to my kids
6:44 am
Glantarell
oh yes, that would be awful. I'm guessing that will be my job when my mum goes - don't suppose broithers will want to tackle it. Mind you my mum has had to clear out dad's things (he died in July) and she has had a major blitz of her own stuiff too so i guess she's thinking ahead, bless her
6:46 am
lynxxx
I'd say so...good on her
6:47 am
kje
we are doing that now
6:47 am
Glantarell
clearing out?
6:47 am
kje
my mom passed away Wednesday
6:48 am
Glantarell
oh I am so sorry to hear that kje
6:48 am
Glantarell
at least when my dad passed away in the summer it was a merciful release
6:48 am
lynxxx
oh kje...I am so sorry. Its just so awful to lose a parent
6:49 am
Glantarell
treasure you memories
6:49 am
kje
my mom had been in hospice... I am glad it is over for her, though it still hurts
6:50 am
lynxxx
Of course it does.
6:50 am
Glantarell
I am finding - 4 months on - that little things pop up which remind me of dad - and sometimes that's a happy feeling, sometimes not - for instance I was at the works Xmas meal last night and we pulled crackers and my 'gift' was a tiny sinning top - and my dad adored spinning tops and we put a new one in his Xmas stocking every year so at least it was a happy reminder of dad at Xmas
6:51 am
kje
that is sweet, glant
6:52 am
Glantarell
sometimes it's a song he loved, or a TV show - I hope you have nice reminders of happy times in the months to come kje
6:52 am
Glantarell
it helps you forget the bad times when they were ill at the end of life
6:52 am
Glantarell
and brings back memories of good times together
6:53 am
kje
I have many good memories... just need to get through the next couple of weks
6:53 am
Glantarell
i lost myself in sorting out all the funeral and legal stuff in the first 2 weeks
6:54 am
lynxxx
is you Dad still around kje...and do you have siblings?
6:54 am
Glantarell
it helped my mum for me to tkae that on and it helped me to get through
6:55 am
kje
my dad is here, it has been hard on him - married 59 years

hootowl
It went bonkers!
8:18 am

I don't know cinnabon carleekat, St. Cinnamon was in a few of the malls and you could smell them as soon as you entered the mall
8:18 am
cosdem
dr god fixed it promptly and it went back to normal around 10 minutes after flip time
8:19 am
carleekat
chat log doesnt start till 12:30
8:20 am
hootowl
Had to be later than that. I was going back and forth about every 10 min and didn't get it til about 12:40
8:20 am
carleekat
AHH... cinnabon is the same..u walk in and is all you can smell..maybe i will make some today...
8:20 am

8:21 am
cosdem
but it was nice of him to fix it right away
8:22 am
hootowl
It was nice to not have to see the cluing. Was peaceful.
8:23 am

hello friends
8:33 am
Trifioso
getting paid to babble again! quiet saturday at the office, taking turns tutoring with another clinician....
8:33 am
MollyL
Hoot, I have taken to keeping chat turned off first thing in the morning due to all the cluing. I don't mind when someone clues if one is asked for, but when clues just get thrown out for nothing, it takes the fun of finding words yourself away.
8:34 am
MollyL
Morning Trif
8:34 am
Kaplan the Magne
yeah.
8:35 am
Trifioso
hey there molly! always so good to "see" you here!
8:35 am
hootowl
Hi moll - it has become a whole separate bunch just trying to oyrdo each other.
8:35 am
Norma
Can anyone clue the fo7/44 please
8:36 am
hootowl
Not there yet - sorry Norma
8:37 am
Norma
Ok hoot thanks
8:37 am
Kaplan the Magne
what exactly happened at the flip?
8:37 am
Trifioso
I think there was no puzzle, kaplan
8:37 am
marpocky
fo4/7 + 3 more
8:37 am
Kaplan the Magne
The few times I have been on at the flip, I notice that people start cluing immediately
8:37 am
Kaplan the Magne
NO PUZZLE????????????????
8:38 am
Norma
Dr God said babble has run out of grids and he had to get the fairies making some more lol .... so the servers would be slow for a while
8:38 am
Trifioso
dr god posted something on FB about how the program had run out of puzzles....apparently this has happened before
8:38 am
hootowl
Got it - Norma - think of the guy that runs a projet.
8:38 am
Kaplan the Magne
I don't go on at night if I wake up, having learned my lesson about the screen keeping me awake
8:38 am
hootowl
They don't consider it cluing for some reason.
8:39 am
Norma
Thanks marpocky
8:39 am
carleekat
ok...cinnabon dough in the bread machne and i have kettle cooked salt and vinegr chips...sheesh can u tell i am still on student time???
8:39 am
Kaplan the Magne
How can the program run out of puzzles? Doesn't it just shake the jar?
8:39 am
MollyL
They don't consider it cluing???
8:39 am
Norma
Thanks hoot
8:40 am
Kaplan the Magne
Like the flip happens and 5 seconds later someone asks for a clue to the 10?
8:40 am
Trifioso
kaplan, I had posted that very question about 12 months ago, and was roundly sounded down by people INSISTING it could never happen....but numerically, it makes sense doesn't it?
8:40 am
MollyL
There are only so many letter combinations.
8:40 am
Trifioso
it used to be that cluing was not allowed - at all - for like the first hour or something, but that has seemed to go out the window
8:40 am
Kaplan the Magne
Simple. You take the plastic jar, shake it...
8:41 am
Trifioso
exactly molly! you couldn't have a grid that was all k's for example, or only vowels, or only cons, or had 24 z's
8:41 am
Kaplan the Magne
Would anyone even notice if one day we had the same grid as 7 years ago?
8:41 am
hootowl
I seem to remember running out of puzzles once before.
8:41 am
MollyL
There was a big fight about cluing the first hour of the flip. The cluers won because those against that quit chatting then.
8:41 am
Kaplan the Magne
Everyone is on a different time zone.
8:41 am
carleekat
when did that happen molls?
8:41 am
Kaplan the Magne
I have never really understood probability.
8:41 am
hootowl
Between the clueing and the punning I usually ignore them
8:41 am
Trifioso
I wondered that as well, kaplan, but I figured that most people wouldn't, but somewhere out there is some completely anal person that would moan and want their whopping 14 bucks back
8:42 am
MollyL
Don't know. Heard it through the grapevine.
8:42 am
72 Temple Owl
you lot have it all wrong . it is not about the fun of finding words anymore. hoot , i do as well
8:42 am
carleekat
( carlee feels like she is waking up from a dream..i didnt even know qadafi was dead )
8:43 am
Kaplan the Magne
Ignore punning?
8:43 am
Kaplan the Magne
OOps.
8:43 am
marpocky
there are 236 million billion billion billion possible grids. now, most of those have very few words, but that's still a lot to start with
8:43 am
72 Temple Owl
i mean i remember running out of grids
8:43 am
Kaplan the Magne
they dragged his body through the streets.
8:44 am
Trifioso
true, mocky, but a LOT of them are deselected right away due to the constraints I mentioned before
8:44 am

8:48 am
marpocky
about 1% of grids have 15 cons / 10 vowels. over 2 million billion billion billion. i don't think we can run out of grids
8:49 am
Trifioso
we ran out of grids this morning at the flip marpocky. It has happened more than once.
8:49 am
carleekat
apparently i need to drive my kid
8:49 am
carleekat

8:50 am
Trifioso
drive safely!
8:50 am
marpocky
then there's something wrong with the grid generation process. either that or babble has been around a lot longer than i thought lol
8:50 am
MollyL
Could be just me, but I think the "run out of grids" thing was just a joke. I think Dr. God just needed to reset the software.
8:50 am
hootowl
Glad for the clean bill crossy!

the ji6 sounds like a girls name or a piece of machinery involved in early production of cotton
9:44 am
Scrabbler
Lower right corner, Car. Just a face.
9:45 am
Scrabbler
OK, I found ji4. Now for the ji6.
9:45 am
Glantarell
in fact ji4 sounds like a drink you have with tomic and a slice of lemon
9:45 am
car.eeyore
OK..that is what I thought.
9:45 am

The mattress is in the dining room since the crew that moved my dtr's stuff out Wednesday only got it that far when they moved it into the house from the garage (basement was full of stuff moving out; and after they got over to her place and moved stuff in there; they didn't come back here.

hi sue. DH is tucked safely in bed and not wanting to move much. He'd be a lot happier if we had a TV in there; but we don't so he has t sleep. He was feeling pretty smart last evening and was in the Lazy Boy chair; but he ended up finding out that he should be in bed (as the discharge orders said)

ah, you remind me, Molly, once many years ago I ran a high fever after a wisdom tooth extraction - the dentist and my primary physician showed up together at my door to see how I was!!! (It was a very small, relatively isolated town, though)

Karen is a good friend of mine from high school. She makes a living playing dulcimer, i though she played all kind but i might be wrong
11:08 am

just joking. I'd wanted to ad a wink; but sent my comment instead. I think he was worried about DH because of his MS and his back problems and he wanted to know DH wasn't falling or anything

11:59 am
Griffums
my biggest issue between the two is that on my old kindle I use collections to manage content, and the fire doesn't yet have that in firmware. Hate that part. Otherwise I am loving it, especially for magazine subscriptions.
12:01 pm
spanner
We use our kindle for book collections too and for downoading english papers when we are abroad. But the fire sounds interesting. Might look up the piece form Yahoo. Thanks
12:02 pm
Griffums
I expected issues when I ordered it as a 1st gen product, which I rarely do. Will be interesting to see what the January releases look like.

Soodle
Did my clue make sense, Nan?
3:21 pm
Minveryork
I'm ok.Sepnt the morning shopping and afternoon babbling
3:22 pm
cybernan
not really -- keep trying variations with the r , a, and 2 e's -- no hits so far
3:22 pm
Soodle
Shopping/Babbling.............Babbling
/shopping.... sounds good!
3:23 pm
Minveryork
Shopping was NOT good and babbling is ALWAYS wonderful
3:23 pm
Soodle
Try es plus vowel, plus phonetic spelling of a major river in Germany...........
3:23 pm
cybernan
ty soodle
3:24 pm
Soodle
Whew. Glad you got it Nan.. was running out of clues :-)
3:24 pm
cybernan
*!* ta da *!* - thanks for the help :)
3:25 pm
Soodle
Yay for Nan!!
3:25 pm
cybernan
finding the shopping very frustrating -- can't find what I'm looking for half the time.
3:25 pm
Picklesny
ty soodle
3:25 pm
cybernan
anyone want clues before I leave?
3:26 pm
Soodle
Sheesh, my battle would be half won if I knew what I was looking for. I find myself wandering aimlessly, seeking 'the very thing'.... exhausting!
3:26 pm
cybernan
o + meadow (ol 4/4)
3:27 pm
Picklesny
gotcha nan
3:27 pm
cybernan
lol - have done some of that also, soodle
3:28 pm
Soodle
Having said that, after hours of mooching, when you DO find 'the very thing', its a great feeling!
3:29 pm
cybernan
on my way -- should do some baking
3:29 pm
jesdraggon
I don't shop, I just send money. I am a cheater.
3:33 pm
Nef
Good Afternoon again. Our son has been here; moved furniture; fine tuned both of our new computers, set up the beds in the basement and told us both to behave. And now he's gone again. :-)
3:36 pm
Picklesny
r u behaving?
3:39 pm
Soodle
Money is always very acceptable, Jes. And I, like Pickles am also wondering about Nef's behaviour.......
3:44 pm
Nef
(just caught up with the chat) Yes, Pickles, I'm certainly trying to behave today. :-) ONE of the 2 of us has to stay on track here
3:46 pm
Nef
I did hang somenew blinds; but that only was putting in a few screws. (I got some top down; bottom up white honeycomb shades I ordered after Thanksgiving; I got 4 for the price of 3 and am thrilled with how nice they look! :-)
3:47 pm
Picklesny
nef, sit down
3:47 pm
Soodle
Nef, I think your son can sleep easy in his bed tonight knowing that you are behaving yourself!! :-)
3:47 pm
Nef
They really brighten up the family room and look so much better than the old stained rice paper roman shades
3:48 pm
Nef
I am sitting, Pickles! I'm playing Babble now!
3:49 pm
MollyL
Nef, please stay sitting. You are too busy for your own good.
3:49 pm
Kaplan the Magne
That nap I needed? Wonderful.
3:50 pm
Nef
Soodle; he drove 38 miles one way to help us today. And this is the first week in over a year we don't have our lovely grandson! (DH had knee surgery and I said I couldn't do it with DH ill too.)
3:50 pm
Kaplan the Magne

*waves to Kaplan at the PB*
3:51 pm
Nef
no, Kap; you aren't they aren't WORDS
3:52 pm
Soodle
Well done, son of Nef, and speedy recovery to husband of Nef with his dodgy knee.
3:52 pm
Kaplan the Magne
Isn't there a penalty for typing in the wrong place?
3:52 pm
rururocks
maybe the cabana at the PB? for semi-penalty
3:52 pm
Nef
only if they are WORDS (that everyone has) ;-)
3:52 pm
Kaplan the Magne
I should at least be on probation.
3:52 pm
MollyL
Kap wants to be penalized.
3:53 pm
Nef
Thanks, Soodle. I'll let them bothknow!
3:53 pm
rururocks
you should have been on probabtion BEFORE you started..lol
3:53 pm
Kaplan the Magne
thanks, ruru.
3:53 pm
jesdraggon
hi kap, ruru :)
3:53 pm
Nef
oh, go ahead, Kap. I think the PB is well-stocked with Christmas/ Holiday goodies
3:54 pm
Kaplan the Magne
YAY!
3:54 pm
Soodle
I heard a song on the radio which made the hairs on the back of my neck stand up... http://tinyurl.com/83qacgt. It really is worth a listen....
3:54 pm
MollyL
<---Notices that Nef ignored my "stay sitting down" comment
3:55 pm
Soodle
Selective deafness, Molls. We all suffer from it!
3:56 pm
Nef
I'm sitting, Molly! I can't play Babble standing up! (of course I can babble in any position, but that just my mouth . Typing is another story)
3:56 pm
Kaplan the Magne
me
3:57 pm
Kaplan the Magne
never mind- just typing in the wrong box again.
3:58 pm
Nef
hey, jes. Is that the starving horse? He sure looks thin! How is his general health?
3:59 pm
Kaplan the Magne
Imagine me and you and you and me
4:00 pm
MollyL
Soodle, I've heard that Jerry Lynch song before. It makes you realize that we have people in tough places at Christmas and it speaks of faith, big time.
4:00 pm
Kaplan the Magne
no matter how they toss the dice, it had to be
4:01 pm
Soodle
Its just such a lovely song... the clarity of his voice, the sentiments, the whole thing... (my kidneys are very close to my eyes, so I whinge frequently...)
4:01 pm
Nef
it's beautiful, Soodle. I've heard about this happening; but didn't know there was a song about it
4:01 pm
Kaplan the Magne
OK, I'll switch. Have yourself a merry little Christmas.
4:02 pm
Kaplan the Magne
I will listen now.
4:04 pm
MollyL
The eye leaking is an Irish thing Soodle. We are obliged to put out the liquid we put in. BÃÂodh amhlaidh.
4:04 pm
Soodle
And tragically, almost 100 years later, it still rings true. (Enough of the maudlin Soodle, for feck's sake...)
4:05 pm
Soodle
Maith an cailÃÂn, Molls :-)
4:07 pm
Nef
DH is up now; and he's using a walker instead of the 2 canes he insisted on this AM. I told him to come out to hear this song (since he swears he is all slept out now!)
4:08 pm
Soodle
Oh Nef.... I hope he enjoys it, and isn't disappoined....
4:09 pm
Kaplan the Magne
it is lovely.
4:10 pm
MollyL
Soodle, how did Himself enjoy his King For A Day breakfast?
4:12 pm
Soodle
He came in like a hurricane, Molly, devoured all round him - (breakfast-wise), took himself off to bed for the day, gave me 3 big bags of washing, with instructions not to shrink anything, ate a HUGE dinner, and is now off in the pub! Toujours la meme chose!
4:13 pm
Nef
Soodle, DH was in the Navy and he is "enjoying" the song but is saddened by the reality of it too.
4:13 pm
Shirlockc
last fe6?
4:14 pm
Nef
Wow, Soodle! I don't know whohe is; but what a description!
4:14 pm
Nef
Sorry, Shirl, I haven't listed yet
4:14 pm
MollyL
I'm sorry...gave you three big bags of washing with instructions not to shrink anything??? While he slept for the day???
4:15 pm
jesdraggon
fe6/30 is latin plural of leg bone
4:15 pm
Shirlockc
have that one, need the last fe 6
4:15 pm
Soodle
Its the son and heir, Nef. 21 years old, living away from home for the past two years and home now for 2 weeks. The tranquility of Chez Soodle is upscuttled. But I am delighted to have him home :-)
4:17 pm
Soodle
Yes yes yes Molls. I know. But, what can I say? I'm an Irish Mammy!!
4:18 pm
lynxxx
fe6 fe & ma**** is of the ocean
4:18 pm
Soodle
Nef... your DH may or may not like this song... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PFCekeo
STwg
4:18 pm
Shirlockc
have that one too, there's another fe6 i'm missing
4:19 pm
MollyL
Okay Soodle, but don't blame me when your future daughter-in-law gives you the evil eye.
4:20 pm
MollyL
<---Would levitate, speak in tongues and have fire spouting from my head if any son of mine instructed me thus
4:20 pm
Picklesny
my husband says he wants my atention later
4:20 pm
lynxxx
the second last fe6 is a latin plural on the last fe5.16
4:20 pm
Kaplan the Magne
Kinehora.
4:20 pm
Soodle
Molly, if he was a stay-at-home son, he would be well versed in the wonders of the washing machine. But, truth be told... I'm sorta happy to be doing 'stuff' for him. I don't get the chance very often...
4:21 pm
Shirlockc
thx lynxx! that's the one i was missing
4:22 pm
Soodle
Yay Lynn - thank you!
4:22 pm
Soodle
Lynn, have you heard this song http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PFCekeo
STwg
4:23 pm
lynxxx
of course!
4:24 pm
Soodle
Lovely song!
4:25 pm
lynxxx
very sad though, not to be listened to with a few under your belt
4:25 pm
Nef
Soodle, DH knows that song quite well and enjoys it. Re: your son coming home and ordering you about; kids do that at a certain age, and moms seem to enjoy doing it at times. Then again; it's not nice of him to boss you around!
4:28 pm
Soodle
Nah, Nef... he wasn't ordering anybody. He ironed his own jeans and shirt prior to outing and abouting this evening. And he cooked us dinner! He is a good kid.
4:29 pm
Nef
He fixed supper? Good for you then!
4:30 pm
Soodle
Okay.. last song of the evening... (not a dry eye in the house after this one..) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ntt3wy-

4:31 pm
MollyL
Gads, pours Soodle a shot of the upbeat, happy Christmas cheer.

4:33 pm
Nef
Soodle you must be in a meloncholy mood tonight
4:34 pm
MollyL
I love that one Lynx. The spontaneous stuff in public is very cool.
4:36 pm
lynxxx
certainly not 'spontaneous' but the sound echoing around makes every hair on my neck stand up - awesome
4:36 pm
Soodle
I got my (84 yr old) Dad an IPod for Christmas, and I spent the day trawling through Youtube for appropriate songs for him. I' m a bit frazzled........ Any ideas what an 84 yr old might like to listen to, please, put your suggestions on a $20 note and send them to me....
4:36 pm
Nef
There was a flash mob at one of the local law schools here in the past few weeks

rubyfoo
sleepy, dopy Ruby, was hoping that soodles wouldlbe here as I needed some Irish good cheer
4:48 pm
rubyfoo
I'm never here this late -- what a lovely group
4:48 pm
kje
wow, ruby.. what time is it there
4:48 pm
Soodle
She wished for Irish cheer.. and here is Irish cheer... following hiccups!!
4:49 pm
kje
2300 or so, no?
4:49 pm
rubyfoo
we had our first bad weather and the house is freezing
4:49 pm
MollyL
Good luck Ruby. Soodle is dishing out teary eyed stuff this evening.
4:49 pm
kje
go to bed where it is warm!
4:50 pm
rubyfoo
oh no, wrong night then. Found out too many sad stories about old friends
4:50 pm
MollyL
(((Ruby)))
4:51 pm
Soodle
<also lives in a freezing house, but then discovered the marvels of electric blankets. havent looked back...
4:51 pm
rubyfoo
wearing many layer of clothes, look like the Michelin man
4:51 pm
rubyfoo
tracked down a dear old friend who worked with me for years but had disappeared. Unfortunately, for the worst reason!
4:51 pm
kje
ha!... been there... night without heat in Switzerland in January. I slpet in several layers of clothes, my wool coat, under down
4:51 pm
lynxxx
on the couch with you Ruby with a dog on either side
4:52 pm
Soodle
Aw, sorry to hear that Rubes. You OK?
4:52 pm
rubyfoo
it would be sweet with the dogs but they're too big and much too stinky
4:53 pm
rubyfoo
the other night I was cuddling Ruby on the floor and fell asleep with my head on her
4:53 pm
kje
I might put up with stink for warmth
4:53 pm
MollyL
Smart move Ruby.
4:53 pm
rubyfoo
hmmm, must consider that trade off
4:53 pm
rururocks
have you considered bathing th edogs?
4:54 pm
MollyL
<---Would rather be cold than sleep or cuddle with stinky animals.
4:54 pm
lbdawger
tada!! finito!
4:54 pm
kje
just like a man to be logical ; )
4:54 pm
kje
WOOHOO LBD!!!
4:54 pm
lynxxx
Congrats Dawg!!
4:54 pm
rubyfoo
I'm afraid that Ruby is too old to be traumatized by the trip to a groomer and Max is too crazy (autistic and extremely shy)
4:54 pm
lbdawger
up north when it gets really really cold, we call it a three dog night!
4:54 pm
Soodle
My (soon to be disinherited) daughter took a photograph of my asleep last night. She didn't get my best side............
4:54 pm
rubyfoo
is that where the rock group name came from? never knew that
4:55 pm
MollyL
Hence, the band name of the 70's
4:55 pm
lbdawger
try brushing baking soda thru their fur. it helps take out dirt and stink.
4:55 pm
kje
i was just wondering that too ruby
4:55 pm
rubyfoo
great idea, ibd, will do it tomorrow
4:55 pm
lbdawger
yup, that's how they got the name of the band.
4:55 pm
rubyfoo
maybe there's a dry shampoo for dogs
4:56 pm
kje
I have 42 left and seem to have found a wall
4:56 pm
MollyL
If I had a daughter that took a picture of me asleep, her butt would be out back in a tent tonight.
4:56 pm
lbdawger
time to list then, kje
4:56 pm
lynxxx
I bet dry shampoo IS baking soda
4:56 pm
rubyfoo
I hit the wall hours ago, but just wanted to see if any friends were here. What a pleasure to see you all!!!!
4:56 pm
lbdawger
there are dry shampoo for dogs, but they can be expensive and not always as effective.
4:56 pm
kje
it is great to see you when I am awake, ruby!
4:57 pm
kje
(and not still groggy from waking at 0300)
4:57 pm
rubyfoo
you're probably right, lynxx, but this way they can charge more
4:57 pm
lbdawger
OI, kje! why so early?
4:57 pm
kje
I am an early riser
4:58 pm
kje
sometimes too early
4:58 pm
kje
thus why I am asleep by 8
4:58 pm
Soodle
Agreed Molls, but I have to tread carefully, in case the pic ends up on youtube. Soodle soozing would probably go viral, for all the wrong reasons
4:58 pm
MollyL
Dry shampoo is a great "in between". Nothing beats soap and warm water.
4:58 pm
lbdawger
that's crazy early! I did that for the bookstore when we had to be at work by 5am.
4:58 pm
rubyfoo
there are so many covers on the bed that a photo of me would look like a small lump under a pile of stuff
4:58 pm
rubyfoo
but how do you dry a wet and tangled dog when it's freezing out
4:59 pm
MollyL
Oh, that WAS you I saw on YouTube earlier Soodle. Draw up the dis-inheritance papers.
4:59 pm
lynxxx
I think the baking soda is a brilliant idea -
4:59 pm
rubyfoo
the last time I washed her (it was a warm day), she headed straight for the onlymuddy place in the garden afterward
4:59 pm
lbdawger
es + vowel + tange****, small tasty orane
4:59 pm
rubyfoo
me, too, I will certainly try it
5:00 pm
MollyL
Can you not put a dog in a closed up room after bathing to keep them from mud hopping?
5:00 pm
lbdawger
i used baking soda on my short haired dogs. long haired dogs takes some massaging to get to their skin and a lot of brushing.
5:00 pm
rururocks
has anyone ever heard of crates around here?
5:01 pm
Soodle
Molly, do you know Ruby? Ruby, do you know Molly?
5:01 pm
MollyL
Thank you Ru

rururocks
we bathe our dogs every week
5:01 pm
lynxxx
Ruby...that is a 'recipe' for you
5:02 pm
rubyfoo
when we lived in Miami, we had a groomer who picked up the dog in an airconditioned van every other week.
5:02 pm
lynxxx
i've never crated either
5:02 pm
rubyfoo
Here it's twice as expensive, no van, no experience with chows, altogether useless
5:02 pm
lynxxx
kje - use the 3rd letter again
5:03 pm
rubyfoo
last time we took her, the groomer cut all the fur off her tail rather than trying to curry it out
5:04 pm
rubyfoo
head is about to hit keyboard. {{everyone}}
5:04 pm

sleep well.... and stay warm, ruby

Oh, LBD.... obedience school dropout..... I fear thats my Daisy. :-(
5:08 pm
Soodle
Loveable, but brainless.
5:08 pm
lbdawger
he probably could have gone to remedial, but hubz didn't have the time. He really wasn't that bad, he'd listen to me...i fed him!
5:09 pm
lbdawger
yeah, brainless, biggest chicken on the block! my little min pin would corner him and just bully him.
5:10 pm
Soodle
Ah yes. the feeder does commamd some sort of influece. Poor old Daisy is challenged in the grey-matter department.
5:11 pm
rururocks
like miss ohara mo6
5:11 pm
lynxxx
mo6 sounds like an irish girls name - uses double vowel
5:11 pm
kje
ty, lynxxxxxxx
5:12 pm
lbdawger
i also spent a few nights with him on the floor when he had parvo. nothing like bonding when someone is sick. Hubz was in the hospital having his appendix removed
5:13 pm

husband or dog? what a choice!
5:13 pm
Soodle
Am all emotioned out. Heading off to bed now. Night all, see you all soon. X

6:27 pm

I am doing a lot more this month than in the last two -- and getting a reputation for being tough and at least doing my best to get through the teacher's lessons (instead of just telling stories or showing movies)

I am nibbling on a snickerdoodle I got myself at the gluten free store today, it's a real treat, and since there is only the one (granted it's large) I am less likely to keep adding "one more" to my plate! LOL
6:35 pm

6:35 pm
carleekat
i have never had a snickerdoodle..what is a snickerdoodle?
6:35 pm
stidmama
okay, Bugs, do you mean common root as in what feeds a plant, or common root as in part of a word?
6:36 pm
stidmama
it's a sugar cookie, with a cinnamon-sugar "crust" formed by rolling the ball of dough in cinnamon sugar before baking. Very yummy, and very sugary.

Kermit the Frog has turned into Ray Liotta in my profile. It is his 57th birthday tomorrow. I believe he is a great actor.
11:51 pm
stidmama
I don't know that actor, Min -- I see he was in Goodfellas (which I never saw).
11:52 pm
kje
what was he in
11:52 pm
kje
oh, good fellas... yep, time to go to bed
11:53 pm
kje
oh, yes... he looks familiar... usually plays bad guys
11:53 pm
Minveryork
I didn't care for GoodFellas. Don't like gangster movies. My favorite Ray Liotta movies are Corrina Corrina and Domick and Eugene. I also like Article 99. All not well known films.
