2:29 am

scouser

keep on rallying lass. C

2:31 am

grannyrose

thanx scouser. not scared as i was, and no longer really concerned. it's himself i'm worried for.

2:33 am

scouser

hope that word intrinsic means a discrete object that can be got out. PS love that word arvo - my son used to call it 'natterdoon'.

2:35 am

westford

had to leave..rose you are superwoman and you will get through this !!

2:35 am

westford

you inspire me no end

2:36 am

grannyrose

thanx westy, and do you know what? i'm no longer scared. i have faith in my God, and if this is what He has in store for me, i accept that.

2:38 am

westford

you take every challenge that comes your way and meet it with such grace

2:38 am

grannyrose

this may actually me4 a reconciliation with my pig-headed eldest.....not sure if that is a good thing or not. he is no longer the son i raised, but has become a nasty, spiteful human being

2:39 am

westford

ah that's too bad..do what's best for you

2:40 am

grannyrose

no, i will do what's best for my son......he is the one who will live the rest of his life wondering.

2:41 am

westford

so that will be the best for you too

2:41 am

westford

our children are our lives

2:41 am

grannyrose

yes, my dear, i certainly hope so.....

2:43 am

westford

you certainly have too much on your plate right now..I think you'd better have a talk with the fates and say 'Enough Already'

2:44 am

grannyrose

lol, westy. my God will never give me more than i can bear. i have a loving husband, 2 of 3 sons who love me to bits, and a wonderful extended family in my church. i have a wonderful life.

2:45 am

westford

and don't forget cruises !!

2:45 am

grannyrose

oh, yeah, cruises.....*thinks, must remind himself how much i love cruises*

2:47 am

westford

when did the kidney problem crop up? during a routine MRI ?

2:48 am

grannyrose

no westy, have been in pain for over a week. doctor was treating it consevatively, but decided last tuesday that an ultrasound was in order.

2:49 am

grannyrose

u/s suggested i needed a CT scan to clarify exactly what is going on.

2:49 am

westford

sometimes pain is a good thing

2:50 am

westford

gets us to solve the problem

2:51 am

westford

the other kidney is fine?

2:51 am

grannyrose

westy, knew there was a problem when after taking extra strength paracetamol and synthetic morphine, i still had pain.

2:52 am

grannyrose

unfortunatelyno. it has a 2 inch multilobal cyst in it. lol. my youngest has already offered me one of his kidneys.

2:53 am

westford

there you go !

2:53 am

westford

we won't have to go the black market route

2:54 am

grannyrose

westy, dear friend, i rerally am not worried. as i said, i have had my boohoo, now to get on with life, the best i can.

2:55 am

westford

I'm not worried either..if anyone can handle this you can !!

2:55 am

grannyrose

thanx, hun. i hope i dopn't let you down

2:56 am

westford

impossible

2:56 am

westford

one day at a time

2:56 am

grannyrose

oh, for goodness sake....where did that p come from? guess the nails need cutting, AGAIN!!!!

2:57 am

Marmar

Hi all. Grannyrose, my sis recently went through similar challenge and is completely well again. Psalm 91 was her saving grace! I'll keep you on my prayer list too if you don't object!

2:57 am

westford

lol didn't even notice until you mentioned it

2:58 am

grannyrose

marmar, thanx so much. no such thing as too much prayin'

2:58 am

westford

3:18 am

westford

3:19 am

grannyrose

lol, agree with you, other players might not

3:19 am

westford

kept getting thrown out of babble toward the end..messages saying 'reenter password' just kept plugging along though

3:20 am

grannyrose

well that is certainly weird....although i did notice it took me forever to get on.

3:21 am

westford

I think every babbler that ever was came in

3:22 am

westford

and my first word was tenrec..I said 'thanks fmitch'

3:23 am

grannyrose

yup, have to agree on that. westy, i need to go and check emails....this is the only time of day/night when i can. sweetheart, thank-you for your concern and encouragement. hopefully it's a storm in a teacup. * smile*

3:23 am

westford

3:24 am

grannyrose

* poof *

3:57 am

Marmar

west, in case you are still around...thanks for the thought, we still laugh about that it has become the way we "say" windshieldwipers!

3:58 am

westford

I'm still here..I was afraid I had offended you..so glad that's not the case

3:58 am

westford

tell me the word again please

3:59 am

westford

we had a talk in here the other day about words that have become 'family vocabulary'

4:00 am

Marmar

No, housework was beckoning...yuck.

4:00 am

westford

never ends does it?

4:01 am

Marmar

there were several different ones but but we usually say Shwipshop whoopers.

4:02 am

westford

I'm laughing. You made my day.

4:02 am

westford

oh and I'm sorry to hear your sister had a scare but happy she came through

4:02 am

Marmar

Yea! Having a husband or wife that has a diffent native language is just fun. But we have unending misunderstandings so it balances out.

4:03 am

westford

were you able to be with her?

4:03 am

Marmar

Yes, she is a wonder! We are so thankful.

4:03 am

westford

one of our sisters-in law is Mexican and just couldn't get sidewalk..to her it was always walkside

4:04 am

Marmar

No she is in Texas. I offered to come, but she declined. One of our sis-in-laws had the flexibility to go stay with her through the hospital stay.

4:04 am

westford

oh that's good

4:05 am

westford

hospitals can be overwhelming

4:06 am

Marmar

That is cute. Even our kids who are bi-lingual get some things a bit wrong consistantly. For instance, the german work for "without" is ohne, it's not a compound word like ours. Our kids consistatly said in German "mitohne" which literally means with-out. I should write all those things down now while I still remember for our famiyl vocabulary book.

4:07 am

Marmar

I get to go now and photograph my son at his school soccer game! Yea. I don't think I recharged the camera battery....boooo.

4:07 am

westford

how wonderful your kids are bilingual..do you speak German as well?

4:08 am

Marmar

Yes, my German is acceptable but I make many mistakes that the dear Germans tolerate. I am always learning though.

4:08 am

westford

soccer..the universal game..granddaughters each had games on Saturday..my son is coaching the 6 year olds

4:09 am

westford

I would love to be able to speak another language..

4:10 am

Marmar

I played for years as a youngster, wish I had kept it up in jr. high. I changed schools and I guess I did not have enough self-confidence...don't remember but what a wonderful sport!

4:10 am

westford

and don't you just hate batteries? they always need charging

4:10 am

Marmar

Yes, I need a butler or nanny or something to do all the things that don't get around too!

4:11 am

westford

I'll take a couple of those too

4:11 am

Marmar

I will look for you to chat again on Wed. I always enjoy it! Since I've become a lurker, I rarely chat but I truely miss it. I love all my Babble friends!

4:12 am

westford

you have been missed

4:12 am

Marmar

:)

4:12 am

westford

see you then and good luck to your son

4:13 am

Marmar

:)

4:13 am

Marmar

Thank you! See you soon.

4:49 am

sprite

good morning babble friends :)
This grid looks so tiny... now what made that happen? :D

5:10 am

Marmar

Hi Sprity!

5:10 am

Marmar

Just walking by and saw your flag.

5:11 am

sprite

hey Marmar :) Lonnnnng time no see!

5:12 am

Marmar

I know, I'm pitiful.

5:12 am

sprite

why? You are free to make your own choices, as are we all. It is nice to see you :)

5:12 am

Marmar

But I am sticking to my 30 minutes Babble a morning and the moment I start chatting I can just kiss it all goodbye. I'll be there all morning!

5:12 am

Marmar

I love you all!

5:13 am

sprite

love you right back, hun. How are the kids? And how are you doing?

5:16 am

Marmar

Let's see, we're all thankfull well now. Everyone but me had serious coughs (Natalie landed in the hospital for 5 days, pneumonia) in winter. Yuck. But now all is well thank God!

5:16 am

Marmar

How are you sweety?

5:16 am

sprite

glad to hear you are all back to good health.
I am good! Very slowly but surely getting my life back in order. Am starting to have some faith in the future :)

5:17 am

Marmar

I glance at the chat regularly, but did I miss something with you?

5:18 am

sprite

no, just the same old for a long time. Severe depression / complex ptsd. All the hard therapy is starting to render results atm. That is good :)

5:20 am

Marmar

OK.That is something we can work with. Are you working with naturalist/heilpraktiker-in or MD?

5:21 am

sprite

MD. But a very good one. She specializes in complex ptsd. She is the one who makes me understand and accept why I am the way I am and act the way I act.

5:22 am

Marmar

I am glad it's a female doctor. Nothing against men, but I feel women can treat women better.

5:24 am

sprite

especially in cases like this. I would project the *beep* out of me if she were a male, probably.

5:25 am

Marmar

My brother, the physical education Guru, says an excellent way to combat depression is physical movement and hydration.

5:26 am

sprite

I can vote for the physical movement helping (even though I am very limited due to handicaps). Don't know about the hydration, but it makes sense.

5:26 am

Marmar

I know there are myriads of facets to it, and need s to be approached at multiple angles, but it certainly could not hurt

5:27 am

Marmar

I know with my condition a couple years ago diagnosed as Fibromyo

5:27 am

Marmar

Fybromyalgia, movement was CRITICAl and it was the last thing I wanted to do!

5:27 am

sprite

very true. It does not hurt and I think it helps.

:( That is a rotten disease to hvae.

5:28 am

sprite

*have, even

5:28 am

Marmar

So true, a mean disease for sure!

5:29 am

Marmar

What does your doctor say about how nutrition plays a role?

5:29 am

sprite

it is human to try and avoid pain. But often the only way to heal is to go through the pain. Both emotionally and physically.

5:30 am

sprite

nutrition is important. Especially varied food and at regular times. I am a lousy breakfaster and luncher. Dinner is ok, my love cooks and does it marvelously.

5:31 am

Marmar

Yes, I am pretty sure I need to do a spiritual detox, forgive a lot of junk that happened eons ago and I'm still dragging around....

5:32 am

sprite

forgiving is tough, Marmar, as long as you haven't allowed yourself to be really really angry about what happened and let that anger out. It is a step lots of people forget or don't think spiritual. But it is. You cannot let go of something you never allowed to be there at a conscious level.

5:34 am

Marmar

I just had to look up something I read a while back, three super foods that might help ease depression, it was red beets, seaweed and mushrooms. Sounds tasty.

5:34 am

sprite

I don't like red beets, but I love seaweed and mushrooms. Seaweed especially in soup. Good idea!

5:35 am

Marmar

I like to go to confession, helps me forgive myself and others.

5:35 am

sprite

I can imagine.

5:35 am

Marmar

Of course, I like sugared redbeets, probably defeats the purpose!

5:35 am

sprite

hahahaha!

5:36 am

Marmar

Oh heavens, sugar is an awful horrible food too, causes SO many health problems and feeds so many diseases....

5:38 am

sprite

sugar is ok in moderation, but with the food we eat nowadays, moderation is a far cry from reality.

5:39 am

ivesy3

sugar is my enemy, i am a diabetic.. have to watch carbohydrates too... it is not fun

5:39 am

Marmar

Yes, it's the moderation that is the hard part.

5:40 am

Marmar

It's in my family too big time ivesy, I should really be more careful.

5:40 am

sprite

that is a daily sorrow, isn't it, ivesy. My grandfather was a diabetic too and it was part of his every day and every action.

5:41 am

Marmar

You just inspired me to go get a cup of Roobos tea!

5:41 am

sprite

oh nice! I drink water now.

5:42 am

ivesy3

am learning as i go along. but for along time even after i was diagnosed i ignored it. then i met my best friend. she reminds me to be careful. her brother ws diabetic and passed away .. i wouldnt want to put her thru that. so i think of it that way. becuz for along time i didnt care about myself.

5:43 am

Marmar

Life is so fragile yet so easy to take or granted isn't it...so ironic

5:45 am

sprite

*hugs ivesy* I know that feeling and how it dictates your actions... all wrong for us, but still we do it. Learning to love yourself and knowing you are worthy is a tough battle.
You are a beautiful and powerful woman, ivesy.

5:45 am

ivesy3

sure is. and stress, certain meds can all spike your levels.. its an uphill battle

5:45 am

sprite

indeed, Marmar.

5:46 am

ivesy3

ty sprite. and from what i read, so are you !.. chit.. most women are , we have to be lol

5:47 am

sprite

yes, we have to be :D But a lot of things interfere with feeling our worth and power. It is up to us to get those things out of the way, or in perspective, and be life artists anyway ;)

5:47 am

Marmar

Just read your profile ivesy, you and your family just made it on my prayer list.

5:48 am

Marmar

Life artists....that is a great term.

5:48 am

ivesy3

ty marmar.. my son struggles everyday.. if we think being a diabetic is hard.. imagine a recovering addict.

5:49 am

sprite

you have been on mine for some time already, and you will stay there. Being a recovering addicts mother plus a diabetic is even harder.

5:49 am

Marmar

I can imagine, must be hellish.

5:50 am

ivesy3

you all bring tears to my eyes. i thank you for the prayers and i believe they work!. . jason is "clean" again. for how long, no one knows. but that is what is important. one day at a time .. my mantra

5:51 am

spanner

My step son is living with us at the moment - he is a recovering heroin addict - it is awful

5:51 am

Marmar

I have to go to pick up school kids. Love to you both! Faith Hope and Love!!!!!!

5:51 am

sprite

I honestly think one day at a time is the only way. Sometimes even one hour or one minute at a time. Just don't give up. And take care of yourself!

5:51 am

spanner

So right ivesy - 1 day at a time

5:51 am

sprite

bye Marmar, was glad to see you!

5:51 am

ivesy3

oh spanner.. so sorry . i can honestly say i know what you are going thru

5:51 am

rubyfoo

hello everybody, just reading back to "catch up"

5:51 am

Marmar

You too spanner! Bless us all!

5:51 am

sprite

hi spanner, such a tough battle! *hug*

5:52 am

ivesy3

yes sprite.. you too.. we all have our battles

5:52 am

ivesy3

hello ruby

5:52 am

sprite

yes we do, that is really the truth.

5:53 am

spanner

Someone once told me that god only gives you a burden that your shoulders are wide enough to carry - Mine must be like the incredible hulk ;)

5:53 am

sprite

hi rubyfoo :)

5:54 am

rubyfoo

phone

5:54 am

ivesy3

lol spanner... have to wonder how strong god thinks we are .... guess he /she knows though.. what doesnt kill us makes us stronger

5:54 am

sprite

lol spanner... yes, it truly feels that way, doesn't it. We have the same saying in dutch. God measures out your cross exactly to the width of your shoulders. But he doesn't give you the tiniest part of a cm less, alas.

5:54 am

spanner

I play babble - its sometimes my only sane moments in a day... I guess its the same for lots of us

5:55 am

ivesy3

sure is. the good news is we didnt get the snow they predicted.. not yet anyway.

5:55 am

sprite

babble is a good anchor to reality and sanity. And a great place to feel our brain is still able to work ;)

5:56 am

spanner

Mine doesnt work Sprite - I rarely even get half way through!!! In all the years i have been playing I haveonly had fireworks twice LOL

5:57 am

sprite

fireworks is not a sign of a working brain per se. Getting halfway is proof enough your brain works!

5:57 am

rubyfoo

OK, finally caught up

5:58 am

rubyfoo

This group gives the most wonderful support

5:58 am

ivesy3

the proof our brain works is the day we had 744 words..lol and we tried to do it

5:58 am

spanner

I am good with words - as long as they only have 4 letters!!!!!

5:58 am

rubyfoo

As Sprite knows, I've had my share, too, the past couple of years, but when I melt down, there is usually someone here to listen and give excellent advice!

5:59 am

sprite

lollll ivesy... I somehow feel that me trying it was a certain sign of insanity ;)

5:59 am

rubyfoo

I've only had fireworks a handful of times and that was when FM (RIP) and Crossy carried me across the finish line

5:59 am

spanner

True ruby, there are a lot of good people on Babble, the not so nice ones dont seem to saty long...

5:59 am

spanner

*stay

5:59 am

sprite

yes, you certainly had your share, ruby. And you came through. Not giving up is the most certain way to solve our troubles.

6:00 am

rubyfoo

I try for half and nbs and nbt every day and pick up what words I can from the chog and that's good enough for me

6:00 am

ivesy3

its a great place.. our on line therapy.. actually spanner , you mite be interested in an online group i am in for parents of drug addicts

6:00 am

sprite

babble is a good community. Not perfect, of course, but very good.

6:00 am

rubyfoo

the expression about God giving us only what we can bear is excellent, but sometimes we have to stretch our shoulders to bear it all

6:01 am

ivesy3

my shoulders now go across a room have to buy bigger shirts lol

6:01 am

spanner

I would be ivesy

6:02 am

rubyfoo

{{ivesy}} I can reach across to give you a hug!

6:02 am

ivesy3

ok.. go to eons. com.. look for parents of drug addicts unite.. its a great place. one of the monitors is a recovering heroin addict..

6:02 am

ivesy3

ty ruby.. hugs are great

6:02 am

rubyfoo

I haven't even started the grid yet, but this is such a sweet group!

6:03 am

spanner

Ty I will have a look

6:03 am

ivesy3

now any grid under 500 looks small lol

6:03 am

sprite

yeah, sure feels that way. Let's not forget that God helps us carry the load.

6:03 am

sprite

lol I had the same when I started Babble today. Like huh... 124... what a tiny grid.

6:04 am

spanner

I have to go. Sorry Hugs to all, take care of you X

6:04 am

rubyfoo

I hope we get another monster on a day when I don't have other stuff to do, but that one was fun!

6:04 am

ivesy3

if i didnt believe that god helps us, i wouldnt be here.. .. my cousin told me.. you r standing in gods way.. let him take care of it.... let go let god

6:05 am

rubyfoo

bye spanner

6:05 am

ivesy3

i enjoyed that grid.. was fun in the chog.

6:05 am

ivesy3

bye spanner.. take care

6:05 am

rubyfoo

it weas fun "hearing" people faint when they entered

6:05 am

rubyfoo

and also having everybody stay on longer

6:06 am

ivesy3

yes.. the reactions were great... i actually thought i read it wrong... said must be 74 words

6:06 am

rubyfoo

lol I though it was 144

6:07 am

rubyfoo

thought*

6:08 am

sprite

I read 744, and it just didn't ring any bell for some moments, I actually thought simply: ok, 744 today, that is pretty average. And then POOF, it clicked and I was like WOWWWWW.

6:08 am

sprite

that is beautifully put, ivesy. I think it is true. I will try to think of that a lot.

6:09 am

sprite

I had a ball in chog with the monster grid. I was grateful I could spend a lot of time behind my puter that day! Would have hated to miss it.

6:10 am

ivesy3

i try to .. we must go to our higher powers to survive no matter what our burden.

6:10 am

rubyfoo

it was very funny, lots of abbreviations for profanity

6:10 am

ivesy3

me too sprite.. wsa glad i had the day off.. course i didnt get any done around here lol

6:12 am

sprite

6:13 am

rubyfoo

6:14 am

so let him fume. He'll run out of fuel at some point.

6:14 am

rubyfoo

I sent her back up to his study -- not my problem

6:14 am

ivesy3

6:15 am

rubyfoo

I do my best and if it's not good enough, TS!

6:19 am

lynxxx

6:19 am

Yes. Though it got tedious the last couple of hundred. Wasn't hard just looonng

6:21 am

rubyfoo

you finished? faints in astonishment

6:22 am

lynxxx

Oh I think the usual people that usually finish all did...probably because it was over a weekend

6:23 am

wvteach

6:23 am

lynxxx

The fog is lifting here...I can now see the world

7:36 am

Mom

at least you won't have the snow, Annie

7:36 am

Mom

the sun is shining here but the wind is something else

7:36 am

Anniebrook

We had hardly any snow this winter

7:36 am

Mom

5.6 inches is all we had all winter

7:37 am

Mom

and I am fine with that

7:37 am

Anniebrook

so does anyone want a clue before I go prepare a meatloaf to pop into the oven later

7:37 am

Mom

yum .... love meatloaf

7:37 am

Mom

what do the 8's begin with, Annie

7:37 am

Anniebrook

Comfort fodd

7:38 am

Anniebrook

and food

7:38 am

Mom

with some mac n cheese

7:38 am

Anniebrook

they both begin with fu

7:38 am

Anniebrook

sounds yummy, Mom

7:38 am

Mom

thanks, will look for those

7:38 am

Anniebrook

7:39 am

7:40 am

Mom

I guess I should start my day also. Have an eye doctor appt this morning

7:40 am

lbdawger

gm, Annie and (((MOM)))

7:41 am

Anniebrook

Hi dawg :)

7:41 am

Mom

(((LBD))), just in time for Annie's great clues

7:41 am

Anniebrook

Mom, for your Dad or for you?

7:41 am

Mom

for me. Dad has to have testing done at the hospital on Tuesday and see the vascular doctor on Friday before they will schedule the eye surgery

7:42 am

lbdawger

i love annie's clues. always helpful

7:42 am

Mom

yes, she gives the best clues

7:42 am

Anniebrook

now I am blushing

7:42 am

lbdawger

eye surgery?

7:42 am

Anniebrook

Mom, good luck to your Dad

7:42 am

Mom

we can be members of the BBC .... Blushing Babblers Club

7:43 am

lbdawger

lol

7:43 am

Mom

LBD, dad has a hole in his macular

7:43 am

Mom

thank you Annie

7:43 am

lbdawger

oh dear. hope it all gets fixed without any problems.

7:43 am

Anniebrook

now I must be on my way, bye dear babblers

7:43 am

lbdawger

hagd, annie

7:43 am

Mom

the only problem I see will be with dad .... having to have his head down for one week.

7:44 am

Mom

enjoy the day Annie and have a slice of meatloaf for me.

7:44 am

Mom

if he follows the doctors orders he will be fine but if you don't lay with your head down there is only a 60% chance of success

7:44 am

lbdawger

i think once he figures out that the pain isn't so bad with his head down, he'll do it and be well faster

7:45 am

Mom

and he is allowed up for meals and bathroom. The device he will have to hold his head will have a mirror attached so he can watch tv

7:45 am

lbdawger

at least he'll have something to do.

7:46 am

Mom

but to keep him away from the computer, that will be the challenge. He is attached at the hip to that thing

7:46 am

Mom

yes and he likes tv

7:46 am

lbdawger

get some good dvd's to keep him distracted from the computer.

7:47 am

Mom

he loves Perry Mason so I am thinking of getting him the latest releases so he can watch those

7:48 am

Mom

we usually get them for him for Christmas but this might be just what the doctor ordered :-)

7:48 am

lbdawger

maybe books on tape?

7:48 am

Mom

he doesn't care for those :-(

7:48 am

Mom

but he could read book the old fashion way

7:49 am

Mom

he could just sleep too

7:49 am

lbdawger

hmmmm, trying to think of things he can do laying down.

7:49 am

Mom

besides aggravate mom?

7:49 am

lbdawger

lol

7:50 am

lbdawger

maybe keep sharp objects away from mom.

7:50 am

Mom

lol so true

7:51 am

Mom

thanks for the chat, LBD. Always a pleasure. Have to scoot now. ((Hugs))

7:51 am

lbdawger

will he have to sleep on his stomach or on his side?

7:51 am

Mom

stomach

7:51 am

lbdawger

(((MOM))) hagd. and best of luck to your parents

7:51 am

Mom

which in turn will aggravate his back. He is NOT a good patient

7:52 am

Mom

thanks LBD

7:52 am

lbdawger

i'll keep thinking of things to entertain him

10:31 am

rbud

wondered where you went, flosey, welcome back

10:32 am

rbud

I use Opera, Molly, and never had the popups before, maybe I need to check the settings since the last browser update

I had the popups once, but only once (I use safari)

10:33 am

lbdawger

never had a problem with IE. but then i have a popup blocker

10:34 am

I was so worried in the last five minute of the monster grid as I looked and looked for my missing word - had them all in Lickey, but one was missing here. So glad I found it in literally the last minute. :D

10:35 am

viajes

:'(

10:36 am

rbud

funny, i gave clue for the two 8s this morning and also killed all further conversation. I promise to not give any more clues!

4:36 pm

MollyL

Sometimes, chat just fizzles out because people are considering the grid or have stepped away from the computer. Try not to take it personally. I'm sure it's not intended that way.

4:37 pm

MollyL

And folks need to realize that if they are not greeted immediately, it's not that they are being ignored either. It's just the way chat flows sometimes. All good.

4:39 pm

Uncover

Actually, I take very little personally. I was mostly just trying to generate a little conversation. If I ever appear to be taking stuff personally, please feel free to throw an entire bucket of water over me.

4:42 pm

Uncover

And, the same bucket will be fine if I start being stuffy , too!

4:50 pm

stidgmere

That is so true Molly. Sometimes I feel like a chat, sometimes, I don't

4:59 pm

MollyL

No buckets Uncover. : D

5:26 pm

bichon

Molly, we watched Fringe. Is Henrietta Bolivia's daughter who is supposed to be dead?

5:36 pm

MollyL

Bich, I am not into couple slang, so I'm not sure what Bolivia means. The Observer referred to Peter and Alternate Universe Olivia's baby as "Henry". I guess that could have been a short form for Henrietta.

5:37 pm

MollyL

However, in that episode, Peter did refer to the baby as "my son".

5:38 pm

bichon

Bolivia is an amalgam of bogus and Olivia.

7:19 pm

stidmama

7:19 pm

stidmama

7:19 pm

Bugsaw

hi DR

7:20 pm

DR1965

We are good Stid! he has been taking voice and piano- auditioning for shows on the 5th- it is gray here

7:20 pm

DR1965

Hi Bugs!

7:20 pm

stidmama

How are you doing, Bugs? I sent a kid to the office at the end of the day today... I can handle a lot of things, but overt disrespect is an automatic one-way pass. *sigh*

7:21 pm

stidmama

what fun, DR!

7:21 pm

Bugsaw

your boy sounds like he will soon be on Broadway

7:21 pm

DR1965

dont know about that but he is having a good time

7:21 pm

Bugsaw

I know stid. I hardly ever send kids to the office but it happened to me today too and the teacher fired him off

7:23 pm

Bugsaw

only 48 more days of school!

7:23 pm

stidmama

I am glad you had the teacher's support. (((hugs))) I hate it when it happens, but they need to know there are limits, and the other kids need to know that we mean what we say.

7:24 pm

stidmama

go bugs go!! *starts to plan bugs' first day of retirement -- sleep late, breakfast in bed, soap operas/game shows + babble all day long, dinner out...*

7:24 pm

DR1965

<--- JEALOUS

7:24 pm

Bugsaw

substitute read books and garden for the soaps and game shows and we are planning the same day lol

7:25 pm

Bugsaw

I can hardly wait DR

7:25 pm

DR1965

Good for you!

7:25 pm

stidmama

:-D I was planning for our usual June weather, bugs -- fire in fireplace and slugs climbing up the walls!

7:25 pm

DR1965

You have earned it

7:25 pm

Bugsaw

I sure hope summer shows up. Spring hasn't yet

7:26 pm

stidmama

"eleman" -- half African mammoth, half human?

7:26 pm

stidmama

It's summer here today (and the last two days) bugs. I fear we may have used it all up already!

7:26 pm

Bugsaw

thanks DR. I have had a long working life and I am ready. One thing I know for sure: you can't help people who don't want to be helped.

7:27 pm

stidmama

down to 46. I should probably list...

7:27 pm

Bugsaw

lol I just tried your word stid

7:27 pm

stidmama

down to 46. I should probably list...

7:27 pm

DR1965

sad but true- I am actually thinking about Jakester switching schools for 8th grade

7:28 pm

Bugsaw

kids can handle switches if the school meets his needs better.

7:29 pm

DR1965

No kid should have to have the school put a "restraining order" on a bully who wont leave him alone

7:29 pm

DR1965

There is one school that is very computer oriented and alot of extra classes like computer animation. The other one is part school part home

7:29 pm

Bugsaw

absolutely!! I hate it when the good kids have to leave instead of the bully but it happened to one of my boys too.

7:30 pm

DR1965

I havenot decided yet

7:30 pm

Bugsaw

what is Jake asking for?

7:30 pm

negativeneil

Why aren't the bullies expelled? That would make too much sense, I guess?

7:30 pm

DR1965

The kid was making religious comments and when I went to the Vice Principal she said it was not a hate crime nor a violation of his rights

7:31 pm

negativeneil

Well yes, that is intolerance.

7:31 pm

DR1965

Jake is asking for a school where he can make friends .... he has a couple but not very many

7:31 pm

DR1965

He does better in smaller classes

7:31 pm

DR1965

@ Neil- EXACTLY! I asked the same question

7:32 pm

Bugsaw

pick the school with the best drama teacher/department.

7:32 pm

negativeneil

I was a target of that too, DR1965.

7:32 pm

negativeneil

[being Jewish]

7:33 pm

DR1965

: ) yep! His cousin, who will be going to a private arts college next year has been giving him tips

7:33 pm

DR1965

and yes, that is exactly why he was bullied Neil

7:33 pm

negativeneil

Ahhh, I figured that.

7:33 pm

negativeneil

And our school had a great drama program.

7:34 pm

negativeneil

Drama and music.

7:34 pm

DR1965

7:35 pm

negativeneil

7:35 pm

DR1965

7:36 pm

Bugsaw

my Aspergerish child was finally welcomed at school when he brot fame to the school thru his theatre work

7:36 pm

negativeneil

I was born in Rancho Bernardo but we moved to Rancho PeÃ±asquitos when I was a baby... that's where we did most of our growing up.

7:36 pm

DR1965

( did not me4 to take over the chog)

7:36 pm

negativeneil

Oh, ok. DÐµÐµr Ð¡Ð°nÑƒÐ¾n Ð•lÐµmÐµntÐ°rÑƒ, Mesa Verde Middle school, then Mt. Carmel High.

7:37 pm

DR1965

Bugs- Jake tries so hard! ---- Mt Carmel is still good! Also Valhalla in el Cajon. The School of Performing Arts has kind of gone downhill

7:38 pm

negativeneil

Ha. Well... my brother kind of did that for our high school, Bugsaw.

7:38 pm

Shirlockc

my6?

7:38 pm

negativeneil

Yes, it has a great program, DR.

7:39 pm

7:39 pm

DR1965

7:40 pm

DR1965
