12:09 am
cybernan
this one is not going to be easy
12:09 am
rbud
thought so myself, but it cost us $11 just a few months ago to send a little bitty box via UPS - she did say it would have been cheaper if it had been going farther than to Chicago - which I didn't quite understand
12:09 am
sammysmom
maybe call each and ask.. giviong an aproximate weight.. i tink it woukld be the post office but not sure
12:10 am
sammysmom

I used to sell books online and always found ups very reasonable and cheaper than any one else/
12:10 am
rbud
PO has those "if it fits it ships" deals, but not sure if it will fit.
12:10 am
rbud
good deal, s'mom, glad for him. will it be a long recuperation? (haven't heard what he's in for)

SpellCheck
thnx rbud. It was a popular men's coat right? I can't be bothered to google at the moment. Close to bed time. :)
12:32 am
rbud
yes, I remember it as coating material, not sure if mostly men's or not. named after an animal maybe?
12:33 am
SpellCheck
Couldn't go to bed without knowing... it's a llama-like animal. The coat was made of the wool. Very expensive because the animal can only be shorn every 3 years. (New fact for the day.)
12:34 am

Oh joys, it will only be 102 here tomorrow.

jillibus
fancy meeting you here, flosey
1:23 am
flosey
lol, I wake up at this time
1:23 am
flosey
or at least more so than I was earlier
1:25 am
jillibus
I bet Mr Flosey is already in bed and out like a light
1:26 am
flosey
no, he's sitting with his laptop - probably ready to drop off
1:28 am
jillibus
I thought he was going to nod off at the bridge table
1:28 am
flosey
he was very tired tonight
1:31 am
jillibus
I always need to wind down after bridge -- keep replaying all night otherwise
1:32 am
flosey
oh gosh, it's out of my mind as soon as the last card is played
1:32 am
flosey
lol, tonight it was gone even before that
1:33 am
flosey
both Is and I were tired tonight
1:34 am
jillibus
oh, I don't remember the actual hands -- just whether or not I made an ass of myself and why. Not too bad this time.
1:34 am
flosey
guess I'm past worrying about making an ass of myself
1:34 am
rururocks
really?
1:34 am
jillibus
reallly, ruru.
1:35 am
rururocks
I always think of you two as so together
1:35 am
flosey
jilli, yes
1:35 am
jillibus
together in what way?
1:37 am
rururocks
together as in having your act together.. I think of both of you as so solid.
1:38 am
flosey
well thanks ru, but I can be pretty scattered at times
1:38 am
jillibus
ditto, ru
1:39 am
grannyrose
lol, ruru, that's my problem. whenever i am here, and jilli and flosey are here, i get them muddled up....but we go there again, will we friends?
1:40 am
flosey
we just have fun rose
1:40 am
jillibus
Of course, granny!
1:40 am
jillibus
we live at almost opposite ends of this island
1:42 am
rururocks
i'm going to bed. I have to take the dog to the vet tomorrow early.. jilli.. did you get my note about dylan?
1:43 am
grannyrose

1:43 am
jillibus
I did, ruru, thanks, and I understand. Are thinks ok with him or what? Email me.
1:43 am
jillibus
sorry -- I should have replied but got sidetracked by varius events
1:44 am
rururocks
things are good. and I will email you.. he's finally changing
1:44 am
flosey
about 7 miles wide (in spots) 21 miles long

1:45 am
rururocks
I think you two live in the most beautiful place on earth
1:45 am
rururocks
I would love to retire up there
1:45 am
grannyrose
that's not very big flosey. do you ywo know everyone on the island? or is it very heavily populated?
1:46 am
jillibus
ruru, at least come and visit, with mrs ru and the dogs -- all welcome here.
1:46 am
flosey
oh no, population is about 10 - 11000
1:46 am
rururocks
okay.. I need to sleep.. night rose.. night flosey & Jilli
1:46 am
jillibus
granny, about 10,000 year round, many more in the summer tourist season.
1:47 am
flosey
goodnight ru, good luck at the vet
1:47 am
jillibus
gnight ruru dear
1:47 am
grannyrose
well that's a lot of peeps, jilli. how many of them do you know personally?
1:48 am
flosey
know, know of, know who they are - too many to count
1:48 am
jillibus
it's not heavily populated -- quite a bit of small-farmland
1:50 am
jillibus
golly, I don't know how many I know! I have several groups of friends and acquaintances.
1:50 am
jillibus
It's a very freindly place with lots of interesting people from all over
1:51 am
flosey
hubby grew up here, rose, went away to U and came back after retiring
1:51 am
grannyrose
just was interested to know. your island is marginally smaller than our phillip island.and it has only 7,000 permanent residents, and expands to 60,000 during the summer hols.
1:52 am
grannyrose
and there are large tracts of land still undeveloped. mind youthe race track is quite large, takes up a bit of space.
1:53 am
flosey
wow, don't think ours expands to that extent rose - we're quite happy when Labour Day rolls around
1:53 am
jillibus
wow, granny! Kinda hard to find a parking place in the summer, like here?
1:54 am
grannyrose
oh, yeah. but it so much fun. and the local shopkeepers love it. i think they must take most of their annual earnings in that 6 weeks.
1:55 am
flosey
lots of boating folk too, rose
1:55 am
grannyrose
that's why Don and i usually go down on the motorbike. a lot easier to park. lol
1:55 am
grannyrose
yes flosey, and fishermen
1:56 am
jillibus
Same here, granny, but we don't have a race track. I wonder if we have enough level space for one.
1:56 am
flosey
isn't that what the main road is, Jilli?
1:56 am
flosey
sometimes we wonder
1:57 am
jillibus
I have the an7 but not the an8 -- is it related?
1:57 am
jillibus
Funny haha flosey
1:57 am
grannyrose
who said the race track was level, and if you google the motoGP track in japan, you will find a race track with tunnels and bridges. it's quite amusing.
1:57 am
jillibus
The main road is far from level
1:58 am
flosey
and only 2 lanes
1:58 am
jillibus
that does sound like fun, granny -- I was thinking in terms of the Kentucky Derby etc
1:58 am
grannyrose
are any of us level? i don't think so...
2:00 am
jillibus
tyvm babrab and hello!
2:00 am

2:10 am
flosey
goodnight all
2:11 am
o-o

3:30 am
rubyfoo
hello dianne
3:31 am
Dianne
How are things going today?
3:31 am
rubyfoo
better than yesterday, at least so far
3:31 am
rubyfoo
and DIL has taken over walking monster-boy, so that is one less tough chore
3:31 am
Dianne
That's good to hear.
3:33 am
rubyfoo
she's leaving on Thursday, but, overwall, it's been a good visit
3:34 am
Dianne
Does she live far away?
3:34 am
rubyfoo
in California, couldn't be much farther! lol
3:36 am
Dianne
My son lives in California.
3:36 am
rubyfoo
she's in Menlo Park
3:38 am
rubyfoo
it's a long trip from there to here, but it's even worse from Austin, where my son lives
3:38 am
rubyfoo
have to go and be a hostess again
3:38 am
rubyfoo
{{dianne}}
3:39 am
Dianne
It's a 15 hour trip from here to L.A.
3:41 am
o-o
31 hour trip from Traverse Air Force Base to Vietnam with stops in Anchorage and Tokyo.
3:41 am
Dianne
That's way, way too long to be on a plane!
3:43 am
o-o
Every seat was full.
3:43 am
Dianne
I would have gone stir crazy.
3:43 am
o-o
The trip back seemed longer
3:44 am
Dianne
Maybe because you know what was in store.
3:46 am
o-o
Making it home was wonderful .... the troops today in combat zones have it much worse with the repeatedly deployments .... war is horrible
3:48 am
Dianne
I can't believe we have been at war 11 years in Afghanistan.
3:51 am
o-o
I guess multiple would make more sense than the obviously wrong "repeatedly."
3:52 am
Dianne
How long were you in Vietnam?
3:53 am
o-o
I still see the faces of those who went over and came back with me ..... many became alcoholics and addicts ... of course the dead could not join us
3:53 am
o-o
One year... I was lucky
3:54 am
Dianne
I'm sure it was the longest year of your life.
3:56 am
o-o
Oh well .... that was forty plus years ago ... or, on some days, not that long ago
3:57 am
Dianne
I've been to Vietnam 3 times but haven't been in
3:57 am
Dianne
.........the last 10 years.
3:58 am
o-o
I truly wish there was a way to get those who vote for war fitted for a uniform and sent to an infantry unit
3:59 am
Dianne
Well, there certainly would be a lot less people voting for and the majority voting against.
4:00 am
o-o
Sorry for going on .... I will leave
4:01 am
Dianne
Nothing to be sorry about
4:04 am
Uneaixoise
totally agree, BR -- please don't leave
4:06 am
Uneaixoise

my hyde has receded again; he's behaving today
6:35 am
lbdawger
*sigh* well hope he stays there for a while.
6:35 am
rubyfoo
DIL is out in the garden cutting stuff- as long as I don't have to do it, that's fine with me
6:35 am
rubyfoo
cutting down spent peonies, etc
6:36 am
lbdawger
does she like to garden?
6:36 am
rubyfoo
she's a great houseguest; I just get tired of the constant chatter....grumpy Ruby
6:37 am
rubyfoo
she's an expert on absolutely everything... has a garden that would fit in your pocket
6:37 am
rubyfoo
I am accustomed to a very quiet house. Sincew husband can't hear anything, we don't talk much
6:37 am
lbdawger
kinda hard to get use to someone who talks with you when you aren't use to it.
6:38 am
rubyfoo
and it becomes a drone when the two of them are talking, like having a massive beehive in the house.....
6:38 am
crosshair
pocket garden? neato.i tried pocket composting once,but the egg shells dug into my tushie.....
6:38 am
rubyfoo
or, as a Fr friend uused to say, a massive behind.... lol
6:38 am
lbdawger
is he civil to her?
6:39 am
rubyfoo
yes, they seem to get along, but when we're alone, he rolls his eyes a lot
6:40 am
rubyfoo
and we write each other notes, not knowing how much she can hear in the guestroom
6:40 am
rubyfoo
I am so tired -- no naps for me while she's here
6:40 am
lbdawger
how long is she going to be with you?
6:40 am
rubyfoo
only until Thursday, thank God
6:41 am
rubyfoo
I have the impression she's thinking about DH's will......
6:41 am
lbdawger
lol, well you've had a gardner and a doggie walker for this period, count the blessings as they come.
6:41 am
rubyfoo
that's true, ibd, my glass is definitely half full
6:42 am
crosshair
well,a trip of that size is not undertaken lightly
6:42 am
lbdawger
oh dear, hope she's just wanting to mend bridges and be a dutiful daughter.
6:42 am
rubyfoo
but we paid.....
6:42 am
rubyfoo
I doubt it -- she's making too much nice to me!
6:43 am
lbdawger
make nice back, ruby. she may be the one who chooses your next residence.
6:44 am
rubyfoo
but DH's birthday was made much more cheery by her presence, even if it only held for a day
6:44 am
crosshair
if in doubt leave it all to the home for wayward cats like my father aunt did i still cannot believe some shelter got 2.2 million because my dad and his spinster aunt loathe each other lol
6:44 am
rubyfoo
fortunately, my son is in the wings. The house will be his and he's 10 yrs younger than she
6:44 am
crosshair
lbd is right on the money with all of this of course
6:46 am
rubyfoo
right on the money, so to speak....lol

I think "poule" has other (negative) connotations here, but not sure

7:24 am
car.eeyore
If you were like a cat...couldn't you be said to have a catness quality?
7:25 am
rubyfoo
no, it was my idea; I thought you could either be a plump old lady (like my mom), without wrinkles, or a chicken old lady like me, skinny, but with terrible wringkles
7:25 am

Bus time...brb....

8:45 am
hurshy
gee, i missed some fishy ones.
8:45 am
Anniebrook
that wasnt fishy, imho
8:45 am
hurshy
well, if anyone sees buttonman, tell him that this person i know with cancer that i was talking about yesterday, i mentioned MD Anderson and they said they tried to get her into a study there but she did not qualify.
8:46 am
hurshy
no but some of the OTHER ones i got after listing were very fishy.
8:46 am
uusue2
ah, that's too bad, hurshy
8:46 am
Anniebrook
If I see him, I wll let Buttonman know
8:47 am
hurshy
the treatments that she is now trying experimentally are off label uses for existing drugs, which do not have much side effects.
8:47 am
hurshy
so at least it won't increase her suffering.
8:47 am

thanks and see you all later!

how is retirement treating you?
10:51 pm
uusue2
well, it was treating me better before they hired me back
10:51 pm
jmcnrick
what? when did that happen?
10:51 pm
jmcnrick
I am really out of the babble loop here!
10:51 pm
uusue2
I'm chairing an entirely different department now, for about 1/3 the pay (since I am still technically retired)
10:52 pm
uusue2
as of sept 1
10:52 pm
jmcnrick
i do remember seeing something about that. . .it is a touchy feely department, no?
10:52 pm
uusue2
it's the department of counseling, adult, and higher education
10:53 pm
jmcnrick
haha my point exactly
10:53 pm
uusue2
they probably don't think of themselves as touchy feely (well, maybe the counselors do) but compared to physics they are :-)
10:54 pm
jmcnrick
:-) i have a very broad definition for touchy feely
10:54 pm
uusue2
anyway their chair left on rather short notice and they were desperate
10:54 pm
gremlinn
You went from researching the Higgs to the hugs?

o-o
Oh, you congregation is into horticulture
11:02 pm
jmcnrick

11:03 pm
gremlinn
Don't cast seeds before pine?
11:03 pm
jmcnrick

11:03 pm
jmcnrick
and age before beauty
11:03 pm
gremlinn
oh yeah
11:04 pm
gremlinn
age is in the ear of the beholder?
11:04 pm
o-o
He said, "The Kingdom of God is as if a man should cast seed on the earth, and should sleep and rise night and day, and the seed should spring up and grow, he doesn't know how. For the earth bears fruit: first the blade, then the ear, then the full grain in the ear. But when the fruit is ripe, immediately he puts forth the sickle, because the harvest has come."
11:05 pm
jmcnrick
i was thinking more about the seed that was cast on rocks and among weeds. . . but that is good too BR
