12:40 am
mrpresident
it's ok... am happy to talk about it here... cause some babbler has been constantly on my case. I may as well let her know what the hell is happening so she doesn't make shit up anymore
12:40 am
VolleymomDee
so very sorry to hear about infections... hope they get them licked quickly
12:40 am
jillibus

12:42 am
mrpresident
jilli, that babbler has been doing it on Babble Community on FaceBook...
12:42 am
VolleymomDee
How did you find it? Hot to touch... fever?
12:42 am
jillibus
I could cry for you, mrp
12:43 am
mrpresident
I have told that babbler I am not interested at all in her or her opinion and to manage her time without me in mind.

12:43 am

mrpresident
i have redness on the breast and the neck/cheek area. I am on antibiotics (orally) for now, but will change over when I go into hospital

12:53 am
jillibus
you are one tough babe, mrp
12:54 am
mrpresident
Lickety is really doing well. Am proud of him and pleased for him. He has so much to support around here! Lucky he came through
12:54 am
VolleymomDee
Infections always do that; are docs aware you are tackling all of that?? Are you being naughty?
12:54 am
rururocks
and... far, far, far from ugly
12:54 am
mrpresident
ruru, it has taken over 6 months, but he is on the right foot now
12:54 am
VolleymomDee
Not luck; support is what equipped him to succeed.
12:54 am

12:58 am
VolleymomDee
I wasn't here, granny.
12:58 am
VolleymomDee
Great job, granny!
12:59 am

mrp -- Dylan got neutered today -- didn't he, ruru?
12:59 am
mrpresident
did someone send you expired stuff??
12:59 am
flosey
mrp you obviously have great support here - if there's one bad apple, well you know what happens to them, they just rot
12:59 am
mrpresident
oh poor Dylan!! balls to the wall~!
12:59 am
jillibus
bottles of what?
12:59 am
grannyrose
dee, i buy Anatrin on-line from america. this is the only place i can get it. it's a natural med for fibromyalgia.
12:59 am
rururocks
yes jill.. dylan got neutered today..
1:00 am
jillibus
and how is he reating to the collar?
1:00 am
jillibus
*reacting
1:00 am
VolleymomDee
Intersting, I've never heard about that one.
1:00 am
mrpresident
flosey, I appreciate the great people and amazing support here.
It is sometimes 'eye-rolling' when certain person tries to make out that I 'owe' them their time... like hell I do!
1:00 am
grannyrose
this particular distributor told me the expiry date was a guide only, that the med was good for 2-5 years post date.
1:00 am
rururocks
not well. but I have him on ace and he's sleeping at my feet right now
1:01 am
jillibus
aawww, ru
1:01 am
rururocks
<---wishes I knew who this person was/is
1:01 am
VolleymomDee
Interesting; if it is a regulated drug that is pish posh; if an herbal, that might be correct.
1:01 am
mrpresident
holy moly rose! probably right, but they have to advertise it if they are selling expired products
1:01 am
grannyrose
it was a bun fight, trying to make them understand that i was already using said med with that date, and i wasn't sleeping as well.
1:01 am
jillibus
(wishing I knew who this person is, that is)
1:02 am
rururocks
that's so rude granny..good for you to take them to task
1:02 am
mrpresident
email me jilli and ruuster.
mrpresident1968@yahoodotcomdo
tau.
yes, the dot is replaced with an actual . so that I don't get robotted
1:02 am
flosey
yes, agree ru and jilli - would be good to know
1:02 am
grannyrose
apparently there are no laws covering herbal/natural remedies in america.
1:02 am
VolleymomDee
glad they did what was right!
1:03 am
VolleymomDee
That is correct granny, which is why I was unable to use them... too many unknowns, and I was sensitive or allergic to their fillers
1:03 am
grannyrose
lol, then i get another email from the same company telling me how i was a valued customer...sent a tongue-in-cheek reply to that.
1:04 am
mrpresident
hey ruuster, you still PB at napanet?
1:06 am
mrpresident
for real rose?? that is incredible!! an expiry date is an indicator, yes, but still, did they advertise it as out of date product?
1:07 am
mrpresident
i sent you email to napanet address ruru. Hope that is correct
1:07 am
rururocks
no.. I'm at google Gmail.. I'm trying to email you but it's not working
1:08 am
grannyrose
no mrp, they didn't, it just arrived. boy, was i cross. having already taken 5 1/2 bottles of med which expired the month after i received it.
1:08 am

1:58 am
negativeneil
Yep. One day at a time.
2:00 am
mrpresident

2:01 am
negativeneil
I hope he's doing better now, mrp?
2:03 am

4:26 am
sprite
ooohhhh I am jealous! I wanna complain about that too!
4:26 am
sprite

4:28 am
sprite
hey rubyfoo! Did you have a nice birthday?
4:29 am
sprite
lol... poor ruby. I bet she has connection issues.
4:30 am
TheLegend
no frost here...thank god....i like it better where its warmer....!
4:30 am
sprite

4:30 am
rubyfoo
we had a snafu with my picking up DIL but other than 2 hrs standing in the cold, all was well and the house is filled with flowers!
4:31 am
rubyfoo
but it is very cold here, rained AGAIN last night.
4:31 am
TheLegend
i will keep you posted.:)
4:31 am
rubyfoo
they will never finish trimming the hedge!
4:31 am
sprite
I am glad, ruby! Did you get my ecard? If not, check your spam folder... might be there. It is from care2 ecards.
4:31 am
sprite
good man :)
4:32 am
rubyfoo
I saw it but was too pooped to open it. But thank you for thinking of me. Did wildcat come on during the day; it was her birthday, too
4:32 am
sprite
didn't see her
4:33 am
sprite
ruby, I want to check some dates with my love and kids and then try to find a couple of days to spend with you... how would may sound?
4:34 am
rubyfoo
I will open the card before our next scrabble game LOL
4:34 am
sprite
lol! Take your time. You need a bit of time to listen to it. I LOVE that song. Makes me smile every time.
4:34 am
rubyfoo
and John called from India while I was at the bus station :(
4:35 am
sprite
aw :( sorry you missed him.
4:35 am
rubyfoo
he is having a great, productive time, and on his OFF day, Sunday, he sat in with an Indian band at his hotel
4:36 am
sprite
he must be really happy, being able to focus on music like that
4:36 am
rubyfoo
the idea of being able to do that during a 2-week biz trip is amazing
4:37 am
sprite
did you see my post about my coming?
4:38 am
rubyfoo
sent when?
4:38 am
sprite
(if you changed your mind, just say so!)
4:38 am
rubyfoo
I hope it's soon!! I need your sunshine
4:38 am
rubyfoo
I saw one about a week ago and affirmed your invitation!!!!
4:38 am
sprite
yeah am thinking may
4:39 am
rubyfoo
flowers! flowers! dogs! dogs!
4:39 am
sprite
am not su4 about bringing terra though. He does not enjoy a wild puppy, especially not a big and massive one.
4:40 am
sprite
lol silly, no, just a few minutes ago. Guess it got lost in the whole conversation here
4:41 am
rubyfoo
did you say wild? raofl! he has squshed most of my tulips and allium but is delicious otherwise
4:41 am
rubyfoo
no, I was writing my response about the e-card when you sent it
4:42 am
rubyfoo
and now, back to Burt and DIL
4:42 am
rubyfoo
that was 39 quick words but hands aRE FREEZING
4:42 am
sprite
do you think he will run over terra, collide with him etc.
4:42 am
sprite
bye ruby, see you later :) Tell Burt hi from me.
4:43 am
rubyfoo
NOT SURE YET, BUT HE ALREADY HAS GAINED ABOUT 3 KG IN A MONTH, SO IS ABOUT 13 KG ALREADY
4:43 am
sprite
good grief! That is ONE big dog. I think I will leave Terra home then, lol.
4:43 am
rubyfoo
HE CLIMBS ON rUBY'S BACK UNTIL SHE GETS TIRED OF IT AND KNOCKS HIM DOWN ON his BACK! IT'S CUTE TO WATCH BUT MAKES ME A LITTLE NERVOUS
4:44 am
rubyfoo
sorry for shouting, big frozen pinkie is to blame
4:44 am
sprite
he needs that correction, or he will be insufferable very soon. And yes, that settles it. Terra cannot handle such a big dog on his back.
4:45 am
rubyfoo
he thinks Ruby is his mother and also misses the other 5 boys in his litter. I think he'll settle down soon, though, give it a week 'til I see how he's doing
4:45 am
rubyfoo
he has even tried to nurse from Ruby
4:45 am
sprite
is ok. You keep me posted and I will check some dates here and come with some possibilities.
4:46 am

rubyfoo
I am much older.... :(
7:43 am
Mom
you can follow the chat without signing up. My son use to do that
7:43 am
carleekat
i proved they are....the logic is backwards....essentially ths guy plantinga says..a person who Knows they are right to believe in their religion may not know an argument to convince someone else..and as such because does not know one...one does not exist...and since he knows he is right..the other person who does not believe in what he is saying is wrong and will not reach salvation
7:44 am
hurshy
yes but i don't think she particularly wants to. :)
7:44 am
carleekat
he knows these people who do not believe in what the exclusivist does...and they act pious...but they arent
7:44 am
rubyfoo
I think not getting a computer is arrogant in this day and age

Riverdance
Mom we are the same age - 55 coming this September
7:44 am

You could have one made, Aloy. Have something engraved and have it rivetted to a bracelet of your son's choice.
8:15 am
jmitch
You used to be able to buy "generic" med-alert bracelets.
8:15 am

Sad. Med-Alert jewelry is hardly fashion forward. I think there's a niche that's waiting to be filled.

are you really retiring. I retired at 62, but hubby still working
11:00 am
uusue2
I am, bichon! I may come back and teach a little (fun courses only!!!), and I have a contract with a book publisher to do some work over the summer, but I really am retiring. (I'll be 61 next month).
11:00 am
bichon
You must get health benefits from your employer through 65?
11:01 am
uusue2
I do (in fact, as things are currently, they pay the premiums!)
11:01 am
bichon
wow! Wesleyan sure doesn't pay the premiums. If that were true hubby would retire.
11:02 am
JenMO16
got to run to the store, be back soon!
11:03 am
uusue2
My primary concern is that they may take that away before I turn 65, although even if they just continue to pay the portion they do now that would be fine.
11:05 am
bichon
Employers are changing. They paid my insurance til 65 and I had to pay the premium. At firt it was 15%, now it's 35%. So, I'm under my husband's policy
11:07 am
uusue2
Even if I had to pay the full premium it would still be manageable, I think, as long as I could stay on the plan. But I hope they don't do that :-)
11:07 am
bichon
You just don't know how circumstance will change. But, you work for the state and don't they tend to be more generous with pensions and benefits.
11:08 am
uusue2
They do (compensates for the lower salaries, supposedly)
11:08 am
bichon
My Mom worked for SUNY Research. She gets premium free benefits for the rest of her life. She's 88 and retired at 55
11:09 am
bichon
She had to sign up for Medicare B, but that's not a lot of money
11:09 am
uusue2
Presumably I will have to do that as well, haven't worried about Medicare yet
11:10 am
uusue2
need coffee - brb :-)
11:10 am
bichon
I didn't worry about Medicare when I was 61 either. But, as soon as hubby retires, I'll have to sign up for Part B
11:16 am
uusue2
ah well - I will deal with it when the time comes...

they always leave me lesson plans so I don't have to worry about it so much... but that class was in a "let's misbehave and run around because we have a sub!" mood
7:57 pm
Marc Freeman
Thanks
7:58 pm
stidmama
yep. sometimes there just isn't much you can do ... had one of those classes last week, in fact! older kids, though. By the end of the class period I had them back where they needed to be with behavior...

finally, fireworks. don't know why such a small one was such a pain in the rear.

subbing is so much harder than having your "own"
8:02 pm
viajes
yes, very much so
8:03 pm
viajes
and when I used to have my own class (ESL) I hated having subs! I got all possessive!
8:03 pm
wvteach
did it for one year and took my name off the sub list by March - it was too frustrating - and i had been a teacher for many years before that
8:04 pm
wvteach
i hated having subs because it was so hard having to write out the lesson plans - had special ed classes - had different subjects each period / hour - didn't teach out of a textbook to leave page numbers for
8:04 pm
viajes
they only call me in about once a year; I don't even know the last time I did it. I guess I do know I worked 2.5 days for them last tax year. :P
8:05 pm
viajes
yeah, same -- but I also had this irrational sense of "but they won't know the students! they won't know what to do! They'll do it all wrong!"
8:07 pm
stidmama
*sneaks back in* I so dearly love the teachers who carefully clear off their desks (and nowadays document camera stands), put the materials in order in some way and include a list of what happens when -- with only a general note about "how" to teach (while making sure I know where the teachers' manuals are). Then I really get to teach, but am covering the right material.
8:07 pm
wvteach
subs don't know the class or the individuals they way that you do - but most of them at leasdt try to do the best they can - i always tried to call the same sub - and the one sub was a parent of one of the students - and now that I am retired she is one of the teachers that has taken over my class.
8:07 pm
viajes
well... I think I did that when I had a sub. The "they won't know how to do it right!" was only in my head.
8:08 pm
stidmama
I also tell the students (especially with 4th graders) when I meet them that I am NOT going to do everything the same way the regular teacher does (although the more times I go back to a classroom the closer it is), but they will be learning and they will be safe.
8:08 pm
stidmama
ah! Mother is here... back later. *poof*

8:49 pm
Minveryork
I got up at the crack of da 4/9 this morning and started the grid.I was su4/5 that I was going to finish, but I was unawa4/8 of my limited time. When I came home from work,I found the rest of the words except for one. Here is a story for you to re 4/5 now. The events in this story have been dr5/20 from my Babble experiences. I began babbling in Au 6/30 of 2005. I am completely addicted to Babble and there is no cu 4/6 for my addiction. I am addicted to it like a dr4/8.I need a dose of it every day. I love everything about Babbleland from all of the grids to the cu4/6 icons to the babblers in the chog. I dr5/14 the day sometime in the future when I will no longer be able to babble due to circumstances beyond my control. Hubby wants the computer. If I do not give it to him, I'll have to endu 4/6 his ranting&raving which I find totally disgu4/7ing. How da 4/5 he take it away from me! He's so ru 4/6 sometimes. By the way, most of this story is tr 4/5. I am going to da4/5 on into the bedroom & watch the movie the Crossing Gu5/18.Goodbye to all babblers
