good nite. I'm too bushed to go further today.
2:22 am
VolleymomDee
odd conversation
2:22 am
VolleymomDee
were you here the nite someone was fighting over weather
2:22 am
dart001
night one or the day one?
2:22 am
VolleymomDee
night one... after reading it, I remember the chat...
2:23 am
dart001
almost like he expects everyone to notice him...all of the time
2:23 am
VolleymomDee
what day and time for the second chat?
2:23 am
dart001
same day...2:41 pm
2:24 am
VolleymomDee
aww not sure I understand that sensitivity.... I rarely intentionally ignore anyone....
2:24 am
dart001
it was at me for a while
2:24 am
VolleymomDee
goes in cycles it seems
2:25 am
VolleymomDee
funny thot today... they should have already given us the keys to the house; they have already transferred the $ we owe LOL
2:26 am
dart001
saw some pics...high ceilings....nice kitchen..wet bar :)
2:27 am
dart001
on a pond?
2:27 am
VolleymomDee
it is really nice for us... lot of open spaces; nice master suite; bedrooms on right side of house are small, but okay
2:27 am
VolleymomDee
pond in the back, so hubby doesn't have to worry about anyone building on top of him
2:27 am
dart001
looks like a pretty good sized house....wood floors in the basement?
2:28 am
VolleymomDee
I think the sq footage is about 5300; laminate, not real wood, but new and nice
2:28 am
VolleymomDee
pretty durable for grandkids to tear up LOL
2:29 am
dart001
lol....think i saw a spot with windows..and a fireplace between
2:29 am
VolleymomDee
3100 main floor; 2000+ finished in basement; nice unfinished space for storage
2:29 am
dart001
sounds like ours...but yours is a little bigger
2:29 am
VolleymomDee
gas fireplace in hearth room off kitchen
2:30 am
VolleymomDee
I would rather have just had windows there (not a fan of fires), but it is still nice
2:30 am
VolleymomDee
I love the openness of the dining room / living room; will be great for dinners
2:31 am
VolleymomDee
it did sound similar to what you had described... such a great floor plan
2:31 am
VolleymomDee
is your lot large?
2:31 am
dart001
we have a gas fireplace upstairs...2 sided..one in a living room and the other side faces the kitchen...haven't used it yet.......but the downstairs one near the TV room...use that one all of the time
2:31 am
VolleymomDee
so you like it?
2:32 am
VolleymomDee
is it toasty or hot?
2:32 am
dart001
like the fireplace...we had a wood one in MN....these are gas...it is nice to leave the pilot on ...then be able to just flip a switch and it's on...puts out nice heat during the cool winter nights
2:33 am
VolleymomDee
good to know... ours is wood here, also, so I know nothing about gas ones
2:34 am
dart001
we have never used the downstairs one above the lowest setting.....it is enough for us and the wall above gets pretty warm from the hot air rising along it
2:35 am
VolleymomDee
would it be a fire hazzard on a higher setting?
2:35 am
dart001
it lit it each time for the first few times...too much work...now just leave the pilot on...will probably turn it off for the season shortly
2:35 am
VolleymomDee
makes sense
2:36 am
VolleymomDee
no gas odor leaving it on?
2:36 am
dart001
i was worried for a while...it's wallboard above it...hopefully won't be a fire hazzard...but it does get hot
2:36 am
dart001
no odor so far
2:36 am
VolleymomDee
I might try to find some info online to read up on them; I would have been concerned, too, especially if the wallboard gets hot to the touch
2:37 am
dart001
the cat loves to stretch out in front of it and warm up her belly
2:37 am
VolleymomDee
I bet
2:37 am
VolleymomDee
I have always lived in an all electric house, so getting used to gas anything could be a stretch for me
2:37 am
dart001
her fur gets really warm...can't believe she isn't too hot with all that fur
2:38 am
VolleymomDee
We had electric forced air with a heat pump; extremely economical.
2:38 am
VolleymomDee
LOL you would think she would be.
2:38 am
dart001
we've always had gas...from the house I grew up in...to my last one and now this one
2:39 am
VolleymomDee
Most of our friends do, too.
2:39 am
dart001
have a gas range here too...wife likes that better than the electric we had in the last house
2:39 am
VolleymomDee
MLS makes things easy; I literally took screen shots of the video and I noted where I want furniture place; hopefully it will make Sat. go easier.
2:40 am
VolleymomDee
Usually folks like best whatever they first learned to cook on.
2:40 am
dart001
label all the boxes good....helps to move them once...into the correct room...and keep track of hardware/computer wires etc
2:41 am
VolleymomDee
All of our boxes have printed signs on them; have signs to put in doorways of rooms. Hubby is supposed to take computer down and set it up tomorrow before the moving starts, so hopefully none of that goes missing.
2:41 am
dart001
movers had one box where they put all that stuff into...worked pretty good
2:42 am
VolleymomDee
Comcast is supposed to be there tomorrow afternoon to hook us up, but we'll see... never know with them.
2:43 am
VolleymomDee
I am a teeny nervous about the computer and all of the office stuff, but other than that, nothing else is critical.
2:43 am
dart001
wife was here first...was frustrated with the cable guy...he didn't know what he was doing...and she had to have another cable guy come out and fix what the first one didn't do right
2:43 am
VolleymomDee
exactly my concern
2:44 am
dart001
was still a bit messed up when i got down here
2:44 am
VolleymomDee
and I am hardware stupid and know very little about internet hook up. I do have a computer techie on speed dial.
2:45 am
VolleymomDee
Local young woman who helped find and install some software I wanted. She also transferred all of my files from old computer to new one.
2:45 am
VolleymomDee
So I am trying not to be freaked by
2:45 am
VolleymomDee
computer LOL
2:45 am
dart001
my big project was to get all of the vcr/dvr/dvd/surround system/receiver/hdtv etc hooked up...the cable guy hooked up the tv...but i had to do the rest
2:46 am
VolleymomDee
wow, how did you know how to do that
2:47 am
dart001
i had all of the cables going into back of receiver labeled.....but the tv they left downstairs is totally different from our..which is in our bedroom now...so a lot of trial and error
2:47 am
VolleymomDee
we'll have to hire someone or have my brother come for a visit; we are both technologically challenged when it comes to any of that
2:49 am
dart001
now wife wants new bedroom furniture...and downstairs too...never ends lol
2:50 am
VolleymomDee
LOL definitely not with a house. I have already redecorated a few rooms in my head, too LOL...
2:51 am
dart001
we had a queen bed in the spare room in MN...still have that but bought a king for the other room
2:51 am
VolleymomDee
Our kitchen is not designed efficiently - looks pretty, but inefficient. Hubby about had a coronary when I even hinted that a few things might be changed...
2:52 am
VolleymomDee
We're going to do that... king in basement eventually in guest suite and queen in one of extra bedrooms upstairs.... makes everything more comfortable for visitors
2:53 am
dart001
ours is same..has an island at an angle...narrow spots near pantry and fridge....and storage could be better...but the angle and the range in the island take most of the potetial storage space
2:53 am
dart001
potential
2:53 am
VolleymomDee
Makes you wonder who designs these areas... would love to know what exactly they had in mind.
2:54 am
dart001
we split the guest rooms...were going to have them next to each other but changed so one is up and the other down...that way they each have a bathroom and aren't falling over each other
2:54 am
VolleymomDee
Example - no cabinet over or near dishwasher for glasses or dishes... have to be carried a few feet away... We think that probably happened when they added bar didn't want to block view to the windows (which I get), but really inefficient
2:54 am
VolleymomDee
great idea!
2:56 am
VolleymomDee
Did you all have to make any cosmetic changes in new house?
2:56 am
dart001
downstairs...king bedroom and office...upstairs our, queen bedroom and one other room that has my old twin bed in it
2:56 am
dart001
haven't done anything so far
2:57 am
dart001
hung pictures lol
2:57 am
VolleymomDee
That is what we are thinking, too; paint looks too new to change it.
2:58 am
VolleymomDee
You still have hot days and no storms?
2:58 am
dart001
everything looks pretty nice now
2:59 am
dart001
nope...we have that low pressure right exactly over us now....been raining all week..had about 3 inches of rain so far.....very green and grass needs to be cut...this low is coming your way sllooooowwwwwllly
2:59 am
VolleymomDee
I think I read the other day that our temps haven't been this high for 100 years.
3:00 am
VolleymomDee
Hoping it doesn't hit us until next week (moving wise and health wise)... the barometric changes kill me
3:01 am
VolleymomDee
no one, including the rheumatologist, can explain why... just that it does... duh, I could have told them that a long time ago
3:03 am
dart001
monday 1.31, tuesday 0.47, weds 0.66, thurs 0.52
3:03 am
dart001
rainfall the last four days
3:03 am
VolleymomDee
maybe it will go south of us :)
3:03 am
dart001
2.96...3 was a good guess lol
3:04 am
VolleymomDee
You are probably going crazy, since you can't play golf.
3:04 am
dart001
just hasn't stopped since monday...and of course it was spring break week for the school kids this week
3:05 am
dart001
golf meeting fri night...tournament sat morn
3:05 am
VolleymomDee
how awful! Ours isn't until the first week of April.
3:06 am
VolleymomDee
I think March is too early for spring break; weather definitely can be nasty.
3:07 am
VolleymomDee
hopefully weather will be nice for the tourney
3:08 am
dart001
if this low keeps moving it will be ok.....but then you might get some of it
3:08 am
VolleymomDee
lol...
3:09 am
VolleymomDee
Well, I need to check emails and rest a bit before it is time to go...
3:09 am
VolleymomDee
I hope you have a great day.
3:09 am
dart001
been a persistent one....dumped 2 ft of snow in wash/ore....had snow in the hills near san diego.....ariz/nm...then rain rain rain here
3:10 am
VolleymomDee
lucky you didn't get snow...
3:10 am
dart001
ssssshhhh...bad word
3:10 am
VolleymomDee
if we don't get at least one more snow storm, I am really going to be shocked
3:11 am
dart001
and as far as other archive stuff.....mrp's last stuff was march 5...4:27 pm....
3:11 am
VolleymomDee
I'll check that out
3:12 am
dart001
she said a few weeks..think it mightbe longer...don't blame here either.....don't know why some others can't drop stuff after a while..
3:12 am
VolleymomDee
too true
3:13 am
dart001
almost like high school in here some times lol
3:13 am
VolleymomDee
unfortunately, that is right
3:13 am
VolleymomDee
Well, this time I am off for sure...
3:13 am
dart001
I'm off too.....have a great move if i don't see you before then

uusue2
good for you, trif!
6:35 am

(not me, unfortunately - off to exercise!)
6:35 am
Trifioso
and I can't think of a nicer bunch to hang with -- hello my de4 ones!
6:39 am
Scrabbler
Good day to all.
6:39 am
Trifioso
hello scrabbler!
6:41 am
Scrabbler
I dove in and only now looked at the word total.
6:42 am
Trifioso
I don't worry over finishing anymore...halfway and nbt usually does it for me...
6:42 am
Scrabbler
Same for me. I have other things to do each day.
6:43 am
Scrabbler
Is Secondo enjoying her "sabbatical?"
6:43 am
Trifioso
she is so, so happy scrabbler! thank you very much for asking!
6:43 am
Trifioso
I can't believe how fast it is gone - she is home in just a couple of weeks now!
6:44 am
Scrabbler
Well, I think about what an adventure she is having!
6:44 am
Trifioso
she really, really is. I do worry about readjustments when she returns, but I try not to fret. there is such a fine line between "being prepared" and "obsessing" for me....
6:46 am
Scrabbler
Just tell her to be patient with the challenge of the transition.
6:46 am
Trifioso
I am the one that needs to be patient! that one rolls with the swells, no problem!
6:47 am
Trifioso
another interesting thing has been the change in tertiare with secondo gone....I am less sure than ever which one is gasoline and which one is fire, but I can tell you, together they are two cats in a bag, and the respite has been LOVELY
6:48 am
Scrabbler
Yikes, so I understand why you are concerned about Secondo's return to the home. Lay down the expectations.
6:49 am
Trifioso
absolutely. I also need to "grow a set" and stop being such a doormat in the name of peace....
6:50 am
Scrabbler
Adolescent females are emotional tornadoes that try to suck their mothers right in.
6:50 am
Scrabbler
Yes, be calm, in control and somewhat emotionally detached.
6:50 am
Trifioso
now, tell me a bit about your plans for the spring! you are always doing such interesting hikes and travels -- anything good in the plans?
6:51 am
Kaplan the Magne
amen about adolescent girls
6:52 am
Scrabbler
June---to Pine Creek Gorge in Pennsylvania for hiking + paddling x 5 days; July + August to the Adirondacks for the same, each trip = 5 days.
6:52 am
Trifioso
I am TOTALLY going to live vicariously through you....hope this is okay!
6:53 am
Scrabbler
Yep, Kap. I see the tornado effect in my friends' daughters and my families in my practice.
6:53 am
Trifioso
sometime you have to make a trip up here, and we can do some ocean paddling in my wicked pissa see through canoe - it's so cool!
6:53 am
Scrabbler
Sure, Trif. I am a perpetual 12 yr old Girl Scout.
6:55 am

Hi
6:55 am
Scrabbler
I had 2 Cape Cod vacations 8 or 10 yrs ago, for 2 yrs in a row, and I miss the Cape. I have never been to Boston. I love New England and have subscribed to Yankee magazine for many yrs.

Hi Herin
6:55 am
Trifioso
I hope we can go camping this year. there are some great places not far from here....

7:01 am

though primo's cats I will NEVER understand. what cat doesn't use a litter box? usually they are so fastidious
7:01 am
herinfernallady
Have you 2 boxes?
7:02 am
Trifioso
herin, believe me =-- BELIEVE ME -- we have tried every recommendation under the sun. they just don't care.
7:02 am
Scrabbler
One of my rabbit's does not like the new type of litter so he is excreting around his box x 2d. We had a talk this morning.
7:02 am
Trifioso
lol scrabbler!
7:02 am
bichon
My son's at, old, poops and pees where he feel like. I wish they'd do something about it.
7:03 am
Trifioso
they poop in the litter box okay, but they pee EVERYWHERE. I wish it was the reverse. Cat poop = not so bad. Cat pee? VILE
7:04 am
Trifioso
bet this is REALLY convincing you to come visit, huh scrabbler?
7:04 am
bichon
I've have problems house breaking Bichons, but it's nothing like cat piss
7:04 am
herinfernallady
Um are they fixed?
7:05 am
Trifioso
yes herin.
7:05 am
Scrabbler
Yep, there's nothing like cat urine aroma!
7:05 am
Trifioso
are they insane? yes herin
7:05 am
Trifioso
we have been working with a great vet on the issue, and she is scratching her head as well. there is absolutely no reason to explain it. they just are the way they are.
7:05 am
bichon
My Bichons have always been fixed, but as boys, they like to leave their calling card. They wear belly bands.
7:06 am
Trifioso
I do clean - believe me!
7:06 am
herinfernallady
Do they do it when himself is home?
7:08 am
Trifioso
hmmm - enable has no love for the shart, I see....ha ha ha

herinfernallady
Trifs the reason I asked if it was a thing that happens when Trifs comes home is because if I am out working then Pandora will pee on plastic bags/recycable bags and the litter box matt out of spite. She even gives you the eye before doing it
7:13 am
car.eeyore
Hi uusue!
7:13 am
Trifioso
wow, really? will have to keep an eye on it, herin. this week I have been gone so much, and they are such timid little things that I have hardly seen them. usually just see them darting in and out of rooms
7:13 am
car.eeyore
Got it! Yeah Me!
7:15 am
Trifioso
mostly I am just waiting until primo gets his own apartment, and then bye bye kitties!
7:15 am
Mom
Car., I am having trouble with the oo, could you help me along, please
7:16 am
car.eeyore
oo + crooked consonant + 2 vowels
7:16 am
Mom
bless you, Car. thanks
7:16 am
herinfernallady
Trifs we have boxes in the bathroom and door matts to catch the extra litter that they kick out. I have seen Pandora wizz on the matt just out of spite. Lucius doesn't care Pandora is a mental case (like me)
7:17 am
Trifioso
mean old pandora!
7:18 am
Trifioso
one of the first things on my "honey do" list for primo this summer is to fashion a cat run, so they can spend part of their days outside, and thus eliminate the elimination indoors, at least by some measure

7:43 am

I guess I should explain. A drug age is one which makes a prolonged user older than they are. Lindsay Lohen the other week was thought to be Debra Harry.

wow, how could they be given to anyone else without your approval
9:10 am
72 Temple Owl
signed for the mail?
9:12 am
jmcnrick
i think what happened is that fedex -- instead of leaving a card for my roommate to sign for me while i was in harrisonburg va-- had some kind of standing order to take them to the Nationals office since the signature is the same as the head of ballpark operations
9:13 am
jmcnrick
so i am calling over there today and ask about it--i wish they had told me they were fedexing them and i could have arranged a good date
9:13 am

10:03 am
lbdawger
ty, flosey and HH. the list definitely helped. missed those superlative endings and other little words.
10:04 am
flosey
there are so many odd words that I'd be lost without a list to help catch them
10:05 am
HarryHood
yes I think it's time to list.
10:06 am
kje
the list helps a lot
10:07 am
kje
though it also shows how fishy I am
10:08 am
flosey
I'm always amazed at how quickly some babblers finish - and provide lists
10:10 am
kje
yes, smart people out there

10:25 am
lbdawger

10:25 am
flosey
lol lbd, should be plenty in pb but you needn't go there
10:27 am
flosey
I just made a double batch of kje's super ginger cookies, intending to freeze a couple of rolls, unfortunately, they're eaten too fast here, don't make it to the freezer
10:28 am
lbdawger
ooh, i love ginger cookies!
10:28 am
kje
I like keeping those in the ferezer.... frsh baked cookies when guests drop by!
10:28 am
flosey
yes, very handy
10:28 am
lbdawger
so, where's the recipe, kje?
10:28 am
flosey
you'd love this one lbd, chunks of candied ginger in them
10:29 am
uusue2
morning again all!
10:29 am
lbdawger
they sound right up my alley! or down my gullet
10:29 am
flosey
I'll post the recipe in my bio if kj doesn't mind
10:31 am
lbdawger
hey doc, you can email the recipe to me if you still have my email address.
10:31 am
kje
don't mind - it is a williams sonoma recipe
10:34 am
flosey
yes, have given him the credit, but, unfortunately the recipe won't cut/paste - strange
10:34 am
flosey
I'll write it out and catch you later then lbd
10:35 am
lbdawger
does it have white pepper in it?
10:35 am
lbdawger
thanks flosey. okay, i think i found the recipe online
10:35 am

10:36 am
kje
williams sonoma has started posting some of their recipes on their website... that one is there
10:36 am
flosey
ah, there it is, thanks kj
10:36 am
lbdawger
yup, that's the one i found!
10:36 am
kje
best ginger cookie ever, lbd
10:36 am
flosey
and I'll check out others, thanks
10:36 am
lbdawger
i bet they are decadent with macadamia nuts.
10:37 am
flosey
another good idea, I always use pecans
10:41 am
lbdawger
whoooo hooooo KJE!!
10:42 am
lbdawger
i can afford pecans! must put ginger on my shopping list.
10:42 am
uusue2
you guys are making me hungry! No fair!
10:43 am
kje
I use walnuts or pecans, whichever I have
10:43 am
lbdawger
the ginger cake on the website looks really good too!
10:43 am
flosey
check it out sue, it's a great cookie to have unbaked in the freezer
10:44 am
flosey
we use to have access to a walnut tree but b-i-l sold the property next to us
10:46 am
lbdawger
don't really like walnuts. but love pecans and almonds
10:49 am
kje
I find W-S recipes to be very reliable, rarely make one that isn't good. (unlike Martha Stewart whose recipes are very very iffy)
10:49 am
uusue2
they look good - once I retire I plan to do more cooking - these would require a fair amount of modification for Frank to be able to eat them (would have to be gluten free and made with almonds, cashews, or pecans)
10:49 am
uusue2
sorry, peanuts, not pecans - he can't eat pecans
10:49 am
kje
peanuts are too strong flavored, might not taste the same
10:49 am
flosey
or just omit the nuts, they'd still be great
10:50 am
kje
ok, must run - hagd all
10:50 am
flosey
and you kj
10:50 am
uusue2
bye, kje!

hagd, kje
10:51 am

i could see leaving the nuts out, but i like nuts...i love you guys! lol
10:53 am
uusue2
hmmm, just browsing the site, they have a cold lemon souffle that looks delicious! (lots of sugar and heavy cream, so would be for a special treat...)
10:53 am
flosey
sue I have a couple of gluten free cookie recipes I'll put in my bio at a later date - must run now, busy morning and afternoon
10:53 am
lbdawger
i need to go pull something together for lunch...hagd everyone
10:54 am
uusue2

10:55 am
