12:40 am

I've been wondering: What does "nbt" mean? If I'm guessing correctly, it's No Blank Tiles? If so, what does THAT mean?

12:40 am

cosdem

tyvm nbt/nbs for real now

12:40 am

hurshy

at least one word starting from each tile (that has any)

12:40 am

Uneaixoise

means you've found at least one word in every tile

12:40 am

rbud

it means you have found at least one word for each tile

12:40 am

hurshy

woot, ran RIGHT through the W's

12:40 am

McLeach

okay, that's what I thought

12:41 am

fa 7 x 2

12:41 am

rbud

just a little friendly goal we aspire to

12:41 am

VolleymomDee

nbt

12:41 am

McLeach

would that mean finding at least one word that BEGINS with each tile?

12:41 am

hurshy

yes

12:42 am

VolleymomDee

yes, mcleach! You got it!

12:42 am

Uneaixoise

yep

12:42 am

hurshy

221

12:42 am

McLeach

okay, but don't some puzzles have letters that aren't used to begin a word, or does that just not happen?

12:42 am

rbud

except of course for those that are already blacked out, as in the ones that no words start from

12:42 am

hurshy

that does happen and we don't count those

12:42 am

McLeach

sorry if these are stupid questions

12:42 am

rbud

guess I answered that... good old lag

12:42 am

McLeach

already blacked out?

12:43 am

VolleymomDee

not stupid at all... ask til you "get" it

12:43 am

hurshy

it's pretty rare to have a puzzle with all the tiles used to start words

12:43 am

McLeach

is that something that occurs when you have a premium membership?

12:43 am

cosdem

Nah. I asked the same questions myself :)

12:43 am

Uneaixoise

already gray . . . zeroes

12:43 am

hurshy

the tile stats... you have them for 2 weeks if you aren't a member, if you join you have them forever.

12:43 am

rururocks

premium membership is blessed on certain players

12:44 am

McLeach

oh, well, I'm playing for free so that's why I don't see those, then

12:44 am

rbud

ahhhh, you have already gone past your grace period, and can't see the tile stats, that makes it harder

12:44 am

Uneaixoise

12:44 am

hurshy

12:44 am

cosdem

12:45 am

So wth are they so on about, I wonder? racoon? cat? who knows.

this kid is something else, if he can't pop the door lock with a card or something (if hubs doesn't lock both locks), he pries up the garage door. if that's blocked, he has taken screws out of the metal siding and squeezed in through the wall! wish we could catch him at it.

1:18 am

hurshy

1:19 am

rbud

we know it's him, because he left something once that belonged to him, and because our son found some of the stolen stuff up where the kid stays... but have never caught him red-handed. Intrigue in a small town, lol.

1:20 am

1:43 am

grannyrose

sorry, rbud, was away checking emails. we are going to Tasmania. lolol

1:43 am

grannyrose

night jilli. hope you rest and sleep well, hun

1:43 am

rbud

vacation?

1:44 am

grannyrose

yup, 12 days, 13 nights, including the crossing on the ferry.

1:45 am

rbud

oh, that sounds great - what is Tasmania like? lots to see and do?

1:45 am

grannyrose

this time we are driving straight to hobart, staying th5 for 3 nights, then slowly making our way up the east coast to hawley beach, for 2 nights before we come home.

1:47 am

grannyrose

rbud, this is our second time to the apple isle. th5 is so much to see and do. last year we did across the top and down the western tiers...most magnificent mountain range. still a lot in the middle we haven't seen.

1:49 am

rbud

sounds lovely, is it a special occasion? anniversary maybe? or just a nice getaway?

1:51 am

grannyrose

just a getaway, hun. i try to arrange something similar twice a year. don gets so weighed down by the responsibility of caring for his mum. i have to break him out of the rut he finds himself in.

1:52 am

grannyrose

this time of year is the best for tassie. it gets very cold in winter over th5.

1:53 am

rbud

you're a wonder, g'rose. I wish we had a similar thing going on here - not sure why we don't. we're just stay-at-home stick in the muds, lol

1:54 am

rbud

well, that and it's hard for Hubby to get around, so we'd have to pick and choose where we could go.

1:54 am

grannyrose

also, tassie has taken the onus of preservation of historical buildings and sites very seriously. we have much to learn on the big island.

1:55 am

grannyrose

rbud, with the growing awareness and responsibility of the community re disabled access, do you not have access to sites where you both can relax?

1:57 am

grannyrose

as for being stick-in the-muds...don didn't know how to holiday, before i married him. lol. he does now!!

1:58 am

grannyrose

dinner nearly ready...please excuse me if th5 is an abrupt departure.

1:58 am

rbud

go ahead, enjoy

1:59 am

dizgrannie

Grannyrose....been to Tassie a few times, our eldest dtr lives in Devonport. Love it down th5

1:59 am

grannyrose

VolleymomDee

2:07 am

VolleymomDee

little snow, but soooo cold

2:07 am

grannyrose

dee, have been using the ' pain-away' cream on the pain in my right shin. it's amazing. am getting through 8 hour shifts virtually pain-free.

2:08 am

VolleymomDee

bet that makes work so much better

2:08 am

grannyrose

everyone at work is commenting on how well i am walking.

2:08 am

grannyrose

2:10 am

rbud

later, g'rose!

2:16 am

rbud

lol! we have a couple of new kitties - abandoned here, more or less, and I foolishly let them stay - but the little male is having a hard time getting along with the two older fixed males and our little dog.

2:17 am

rbud

he just came through here in a most circuitous way, over this and around that, across my lap and over the back of the chair - just to get to the next room, but carefully avoiding two cats and one dog. pretty funny to watch.

2:26 am

Worquey

Hee hee my is having kittens right now

2:26 am

Worquey

er my cat

2:28 am

rbud

congratulations, lol! I miss having new ones around.

2:29 am

rbud

these two new ones are young, but not kittens. not the same.

2:29 am

Worquey

Thanks =)

3:51 am

dizgrannie

hey Ruby, me is here, how are you?

3:51 am

rubyfoo

hello grannie!! freezing, as allways

3:52 am

rubyfoo

it is grey and cold and damp, but very little snow this year. This is a very cold house unless you sit in front of the fireplace

3:53 am

dizgrannie

very hot over here....had 47 celsius last friday, one of the hotest days on record....thank gawd for air/con

3:54 am

rubyfoo

47! OMG

3:54 am

rubyfoo

it's never been that hot her, highest was less than 40

3:54 am

rubyfoo

he** sorry

3:56 am

dizgrannie

we have had low 40's but nothing like last Fri. Oh well we survived.

3:57 am

rubyfoo

I can't imagine that without AC; you'd have to spend the day in the tub!

3:57 am

dizgrannie

our dog thought it was great, cos she loves her baths and shee had about 3 that day, plus ice cubes in her water bowl.

3:57 am

dizgrannie

*she

3:58 am

rubyfoo

heat like that would be a disaster for our long-haired dogs

3:58 am

dizgrannie

Twas even too hot for the g/kids to go out for a swim in their pool.

3:59 am

dizgrannie

Thankfully our dog is a beagle.

3:59 am

rubyfoo

and they hate baths and can't swim

4:02 am

dizgrannie

anyways, I am off for the night, nightie night xxx

4:03 am

Christmas is only 11 months away.

Haz1558

I've seen TV adverts for it already so you must be right.

4:44 am

o-o

Hello, Haz and Ruby

4:45 am

Haz1558

Hello, BabbleRabble and ruby, if you're still here.

4:45 am

o-o

yes

4:47 am

o-o

The grid goes pretty quickly.

4:48 am

Haz1558

I thought it was a good grid, some interesting words.

4:50 am

o-o

My memory is not what it was ... so it takes me longer to finish.

4:52 am

Haz1558

The nice thing is that it's not a race - and there are still 19 hours to go. I certainly wouldn't win any races at this. The trick is never to give any progress reports.

4:55 am

Soodle

Hi Rubes, Haz, BabbleRabble. :-)

4:55 am

o-o

I do not compete. I started here to ward off dementia. Not sure how successful I have been.

4:55 am

Haz1558

Hello, Soodle.

4:55 am

o-o

Hello, Soodle. How are you?

4:56 am

Soodle

I am very well, thank you. And you?

4:58 am

o-o

A lot to think about .... a couple of deaths ... a round of dangerous flu .... I know I should not ... but I think about mortality.

4:59 am

Haz1558

I think we all start thinking about mortality as we get older. I'm at the point where my aunts and uncles are getting dangerously thin on the ground (parents dead a number of years already) and it starts to hit home that you're part of the older generation.

4:59 am

sandr

hello all, been a while, lost internet use at work, they bloked all sites not concerned with work

5:00 am

Haz1558

Have you had flu vaccine, BabbleRabble?

5:02 am

sandr

hey Haz long time, you lost your flag?

5:15 am

Haz1558

And back, the server was having a tantrum.

5:15 am

Haz1558

I don't know what's happened to my flag. Let me check.

5:17 am

Haz1558

There we are, I had ticked the do not show profile and that had rendered me flagless.

5:18 am

Haz1558

This feels eery. I am talking to myself.

5:19 am

Haz1558

Off to make a cup of coffee. Back later.

5:40 am

Marc Freeman

Could I have the stats on 4 letter word on the back end of an8, please?

Hello, smores. Hope you are well and smiling.

5:56 am

5:56 am

smores

How are you? I don't see you much anymore.

5:58 am

o-o

I am hanging in there. Some of the people here annoy me. I stay away to avoid trouble.

6:02 am

Yeah, people can be annoying sometimes, but I am general good a ignoring things, so....

6:03 am

Lizlin

Hi Smores and BR :)

6:03 am

Jivingjenny0

good morning all, please can i have a clue for the 10

6:03 am

smores

Hi Liz, Jen, sorry just starting, don't have much yet.

6:04 am

Lizlin

Hi Jenny - an 10 - compound word an 4 / 4 and he 6 /21

6:06 am

Lizlin

an 10 - an 4 - against; he 6 - people like superman and spiderman

6:08 am

smores

thanks liz, that an8 has been here a few times recently, don't recall it as a plural :)

6:08 am

Jivingjenny0

thanks for the 10, got distracted by husband offering to cook lunch!

6:08 am

o-o

may as well just type it in the chog

6:09 am

smores

pleasantly surprised Jen ?

6:10 am

Jivingjenny0

not really, smores, since I was ill last year he has been marvellous, but really isn't very good at cooking

6:11 am

smores

That's nice, at least he is trying, maybe he'll improve with practice :)

6:15 am

MollyL

Thanks Liz, good clue : )

6:16 am

Lizlin

Not original, I'm afraid. Copied it from earlier. But ty anyway :)

6:16 am

MollyL

It was fine. Don't let the nasty comment get you down.

6:17 am

Lizlin

:)

6:17 am

Lizlin

People don't have to look at clues! That's their choice.

6:18 am

Lizlin

I appreciate your comment :)

6:18 am

demi

Hi liz. All ready for tomorrow?

6:19 am

Lizlin

Yes - tad excited!!!!

6:20 am

MollyL

Ah, congratulations : )

6:21 am

Lizlin

Thanks Lyn - also didn't get a chance to say thanks for the camera thoughts :)

6:21 am

Lizlin

ty Molly

6:21 am

demi

Rich is hoping they say, "repeat after me, 'Go Australia!'"

6:21 am

Lizlin

Not in cricket!!!!

6:21 am

lynxxx

oh thats fine - don't give it a thought

6:21 am

smores

So will you have dual citizenship ?

6:21 am

Lizlin

England for the Ashes!!!

6:21 am

Lizlin

Yes, smores :)

6:22 am

demi

We'll have to work on you Liz! :)

6:23 am

Lizlin

For other sports, where England not involved, of course I'll be Aussie through and through - but have to draw a line somewhere!!!!

6:23 am

Lizlin

As smores said, it is DUAL!

6:23 am

smores

lol....

6:24 am

MollyL

Your heart is always where your home is. No fault in that.

6:24 am

Lizlin

Miriam Margolyes (Prof Sprout in H Potter) also becomes Aussie tomorrow - but not in the same place as me!

6:24 am

Lizlin

True Molly.

6:25 am

smores

So how big is the ceremony?

6:25 am

lynxxx

She gets Julia doesn't she?

6:25 am

Lizlin

Not sure - possibly a couple of hundred. I'll let you know afterwards.

6:25 am

Lizlin

Yes, she gets Julia!

6:25 am

lynxxx

and you?

6:26 am

smores

Yes, we definatly want to hear all about it :)

6:26 am

lynxxx

I have no connections so I can't pull any strings for you sadly

6:26 am

Lizlin

I get some local politician.

6:27 am

Lizlin

That's fine Lyn - small is good :)

6:27 am

Lizlin

Shame that the weather has changed - we've now got tropical storms for the next few days - remnants of cyclone Oswald!

6:28 am

lynxxx

You can be the centre of attention and not have Julia and Miriam overshadow you

6:28 am

Lizlin

Also going to a wedding on Sunday - hope they get some outdoor photos.

6:28 am

Lizlin

I'm sure for my hubby I'll be the centre of attention :)

6:28 am

lynxxx

hah - my husband just landed up there this afternnon for a few days

6:28 am

smores

:)

6:28 am

Lizlin

He'll get wet!

6:29 am

demi

That is a shame the weather has turned. But it will be good for photos if it stops raining or you find shelter.

6:29 am

Lizlin

Hasn't rained properly here for months, so garden is desperate for rain. Not complaining - not yet!

6:29 am

demi

You don't want sick hubby if he is anything like Rich. It will be man flu!

6:30 am

Lizlin

lol

6:31 am

Haz1558

There's an article in the paper today indicating that man flu might not be a figment of imagination. Apparently men have more temperature receptors in the brain which causes them to experience symptoms more acutely than women. So now we know.

6:31 am

Haz1558

And it was a woman scientist doing the study.

6:31 am

lynxxx

hi Haz

6:31 am

Lizlin

So we need to be more sympathetic, then.

6:32 am

smores

lol...Haz

6:32 am

Haz1558

Hello, lynxxx, everyone. Yes, apparently they genuinely do feel rougher.

6:32 am

lynxxx

gosh - I am glad men don't get hot flushes then

6:32 am

Lizlin

that's funny :)

6:33 am

Haz1558

It's probably fortunate, lynxxx. They might end up self-combusting.

6:33 am

lynxxx

lol

6:33 am

Lizlin

lol

6:34 am

lol!!! :)

6:34 am

If they had to give birth the human race would be extinct.

Hi Mom and Katie!

car.eeyore

Hello Haz!

6:55 am

Mom

Hello Haz, I am glad you are still here. Way back, probably several years ago, we had a discussion on window cleaning

6:55 am

KatieMcG

Hi car

6:55 am

Mom

and you said you swore by Fairy to wash your windows.

6:55 am

Mom

HI Car. xx

6:56 am

Haz1558

I remember. Did you ever track it down?

6:56 am

Mom

well, I have finally found Fairy and bought a bottle

6:56 am

lynxxx

so Fairy is good Haz - we have started getting it over here but I haven't tried it yet

6:56 am

Mom

would you please tell me the way you make it

6:56 am

lbdawger

hi car, katie, (((MOM)))

6:57 am

Haz1558

It's excellent - brilliant for doing dishes and it can be used for spot cleaning stains as well because it's so mild.

6:57 am

Mom

((LBD))

6:57 am

car.eeyore

Hi Dawg!

6:57 am

lynxxx

I know Lizzy has given it HER approval but that it not the same as yours Haz

6:57 am

Haz1558

For washing windows I just put a very little in a bucket of water, wipe with a sponge and finish with a microfibre cloth for glass.

6:58 am

lynxxx

and the dishwashing machine stuff is good too?

6:58 am

Mom

I remembered the microfibre cloth and the bucket of water just couldn't remember the proportions

6:59 am

Mom

come to find out it is made by our very own Procter and Gamble :-)

6:59 am

KatieMcG

I use fairy all in one tablets for my dishwasher and they are great

6:59 am

Mom

will have to look for Fairy tablets next time

6:59 am

Haz1558

You only ever need a tiny amount of Fairy liquid, it's so much better than other brands, I think.

6:59 am

lynxxx

OK I''ll switch TY

7:00 am

Mom

I use Cascade for the dishwasher and Dawn for the dishes.

7:00 am

Mom

which are also made by P&G

7:01 am

lynxxx

those ones aren't over here

7:01 am

Haz1558

I must see if Proctor and Gamble want to make me a roving Ambassador.

7:01 am

Mom

can't wait for Spring to do the windows :-)

7:01 am

Mom

excellent idea, Haz.

7:01 am

lynxxx

not more kickbacks - first Morewords, now Fairy

7:02 am

Haz1558

Don't forget Paypal. I've endorsed them a few times.

7:02 am

KatieMcG

I've just noticed how awful my windows are, will need to do them in the next few months lol

7:02 am

Mom

There is a new market here that has an international section. That is where I found Fairy and the most delicious Danish butter cookies

7:02 am

KatieMcG

I surely must be able to work for a holiday company!

7:02 am

Mom

I agree, Katie

7:03 am

Haz1558

You need to start mentioning them frequently on here, Katie, and in glowing terms.

7:03 am

Mom

Haz, you can do all this sitting at home. Look at the converts you have made just in this one sitting

7:03 am

KatieMcG

We are down to one holiday this year so it might not be the time to start :)

7:03 am

Haz1558

Any mention of anyone's holiday plans and you must ask 'Did you consider booking with so and so?'

7:04 am

Haz1558

I know, Mom, I feel the power of the internet.

7:04 am

KatieMcG

ahhhhh must do that I will concentrate on First Choice, United Airlines and Emirates and see if it gets me anywhere

7:04 am

Mom

now if it just payed money

7:05 am

Mom

7:53 am

Anniebrook

Liz, when she was very young, had a parakeet that said hello, etc (which was no big deal) but then she taught the bird some French phrases which the bird learned. She was so proud she had a bi-lingual parakeet.

8:38 am

took me 45min to take smoresette to school and a quick stop at the store, shouldv'e been 25min at most

8:38 am

smores

lol...ruby

8:38 am

MollyL

Better that people drive slow and carefully than to zip around in slippery conditions.

8:39 am

smores

Unfortunately, there were several of those kind out as well.

8:39 am

rubyfoo

very cold here but no snow

8:39 am

rubyfoo

*woof*

8:40 am

BzznBea

Did they call off school, smores?

8:40 am

smores

Bye ruby :)

8:40 am

smores

no, lol...not for 2inches

8:41 am

BzznBea

They would call it off down here. Even before it snowed.

8:41 am

smores

:)

8:42 am

MollyL

To put that into perspective, southern states are not equipped with the snow plow force that other states are. That makes clearing the roads a much longer process.

8:42 am

smores

If there is freezing rain, 10 or more inches, maybe...more likely 2hour delay

8:43 am

smores

Definately

8:43 am

hego

Morning Deard

8:43 am

hego

um, dears

8:43 am

smores

Indiana is use to it and well equipped for clearing the roads.

8:44 am

Anniebrook

good morning, hego

8:44 am

smores

Good morning hego :)

8:44 am

BzznBea

Morning, hego.

8:44 am

dan2bit

yes, there's no cottage industry of guys/gals with pickup trucks with plows on them, 'cos there's no money to be made at it

8:45 am

hego

used to be Dan

8:45 am

smores

It still amazes me how many people here don't know how to drive in it.

8:45 am

dan2bit

istr a few years back when Nashville (maybe?) was suprised by a winter storm, and the city could not find the 3 snowplows it had bought some years before

8:45 am

eieios

stats for the e? i have one of them , but can't monkey the other.

8:46 am

BzznBea

I hope it has all left my area before I have to return home.

8:49 am

Anniebrook

bye zooz

8:49 am

smores

Bye for now zooz :)

8:49 am

MollyL

Also, sand and salt stockpiles are not budgeted for in states that get little to no accumulation on a regular basis.

8:50 am

smores

hmmm...where did we park those darn things...lol

8:50 am

hego

: )

8:50 am

smores

Agree Molly, it is a huge expense

8:52 am

eieios

stats for the 8's? i have the an. what's the other?

8:52 am

MollyL

In the winter from hell here (2009/2010) most areas went way over their plowing and sand/salt budgets. We are just not equipped for a winter with three major blizzards in it.

8:52 am

BzznBea

wr8/65

8:52 am

smores

sorry, that's the only one I have too

8:53 am

We had a record high on Wed. of 81. But we're getting rain off and on now until Tues....love when that happens.

8:58 am

Anniebrook

81! It's 13 he4. Hi Mimi

8:58 am

smores

at least it isn't snow

8:58 am

MimiCat

I know....we're lucky that way. But when summer hits, oh, boy...

8:59 am

Anniebrook

we are getting 1 to 2 inches of snow later today

8:59 am

smores

true..couldn't take 100degrees and humid much

8:59 am

MimiCat

I know some people actually like summers here....I just think the heat has gotten to their brains and they're delirious.

8:59 am

MollyL

We had something like 56 inches of snow total that winter, 27 of which fell in February. I was as close to clinical depression as I ever want to come.

9:00 am

smores

ugh..way too much

9:00 am

Anniebrook

((Molly))

9:01 am

eieios

i don't know how you do it. i can't stand to be cold. it is 65 out now and i have on a sweatshirt!

9:01 am

MimiCat

I was raised in Cincinnati so I know about snow and ice. My first apt. was at the top of a steep hill and when the ice would hit, there was a guy who had a corvair (with the engine in the rear) that would wait at the bottom of the hill and drive everyone up to their homes.

9:01 am

eieios

no thanks!

9:01 am

smores

:)

9:02 am

eieios

ttfn, i have to take my 8 year old to his "stop sucking my thumb" therapist. lol

9:02 am

MimiCat

I actually prefer the cold especially since at this point in my life I look sooo much better with more clothes on.

9:02 am

Anniebrook

LOL

9:02 am

smores

Bye eieio :)

9:02 am

smores

lol...Mimi

9:03 am

MimiCat

Still sick so going to lie back down. This flu just hangs on....

9:04 am

Anniebrook

feel better soon, Mimi

9:04 am

MimiCat

It is comforting, though when my big cat curls up in my lap and when I pet him he acts like it's the most wonderful thing on the planet....too bad I could never find a man quite that adoring....bye all.

9:04 am

hego

bottom corner r?

9:05 am

uusue2

morning all!

9:09 am

smores

Hi uu :)

9:09 am

Anniebrook

morning, sue :)

9:09 am

uusue2

hi smores and annie!

9:11 am

Anniebrook

How is Frank coming along?, sue

9:13 am

smores

finally nbt :)

9:13 am

uusue2

Frank is doing ok, annie, this was a short chemo week and those aren't as hard on him

9:14 am

Anniebrook

Im glad he got a respite

9:14 am

Anniebrook

sue, Frank is in my prayers every night

9:14 am

smores

Is it every other week uu?

9:14 am

uusue2

me too! and thank you for the prayers!

9:15 am

uusue2

he gets a treatment called Erbitux every week, smores, and then every other week he also gets a combination of three drugs called Folfiri

9:16 am

smores

so every other week is the rough one.

9:16 am

smores

How long?

9:17 am

uusue2

right, on the long weeks he's at the cancer center for about 5-6 hours and then he wears a pump for another 48 hours

9:17 am

uusue2

so the long treatments are all day Wednesday and then we go back Friday to get the pump off

9:18 am

smores

wow..so glad he gets a week in between

9:18 am

uusue2

indeed!

9:18 am

uusue2

he will get a total of 12 long treatments and 12 short ones, so by my calculations this will go through the end of May

9:18 am

smores

{Frank and Sue}

9:19 am

smores

Are you still gettin plenty of help?

9:20 am

uusue2

not as much as before, smores, but Frank has just about completely recovered from the surgery now so he is able to do things like walk the dog (except on long chemo weeks; Fridays of those weeks are pretty bad for him)

9:21 am

smores

He is blessed to have you Sue :)

9:21 am

uusue2

there are still a lot of people willing to help out but I figure I will wait to ask for more help as the chemo goes on; the effects tend to be cumulative, and he may be pretty wiped out by the end

9:23 am

smores

Don't hesitate to ask for help and please don't forget to take care of yourself too :)

9:26 am

uusue2

I will, thanks! :-)

9:26 am

smores

:)

9:27 am

bichon

hi smores, sue

9:27 am

Good morning bichon :)

Good morning, all. I have so much freakin work to do, I have no business in Babble land.

9:29 am

9:30 am

Bye for now Annie...enjoy your day dear :)

9:30 am

uusue2

9:30 am

smores

Good morning Judi...glad you came anyway :)

9:30 am

uusue2

9:31 am

Judi

HI, uusue. So glad to hear Frank's treatments are going well and he's on the mend.

9:31 am

smores

Bye uu, take care dear {hugs}

9:32 am

Judi

Yeah. I just wanted to say hello and bash out a few words. Gotta satisfy the addiction so I can face the real world! lol.

Scrabbler

Good day to all.

9:35 am

bichon

hi Scrabs

9:35 am

smores

Morning Scrabbler :)

9:35 am

bichon

cold up there today

9:36 am

Scrabbler

We are having a heat-wave. It's upt to 3 degrees F.

9:36 am

crosshair

good morning my babble friends:)

9:36 am

Scrabbler

Hi Crossy.

9:36 am

crosshair

lol scrabbs,we are also at minus 17c or so

9:36 am

smores

yeah, warmed up some in the 20's right now

9:36 am

bichon

Doesn't seem as windy today. Perhaps I'll brave a longer walk with the fluffies

9:37 am

smores

The wind has died down here as well, thankful so since it is snowing

9:37 am

Scrabbler

I awoke in a delirious state of a migraine.

9:37 am

smores

Morning crossy :)

9:37 am

crosshair

you have to come visit scrabby.the snowshoe trails are amazing

9:37 am

bichon

migraines can make you delirious?

9:37 am

crosshair

howdy smores

9:38 am

smores

ouch!! sorry Scrabbler

9:38 am

crosshair

my beloved also woke up with killer migraine

9:38 am

smores

not a good way to start the day :(

9:38 am

Scrabbler

I think the dream made me delirious more than the migraine. Vivid, detailed dream.

9:39 am

Sam

Check your house for monoxide.

9:39 am

smores

They make me nauseous

9:39 am

bichon

Can you go to work with a migraine?

9:39 am

Judi

Ugh. Migraines suck. Was listening to radio this a.m. Doc was saying how women who experience migraines with aura symptoms are at a much higher risk of heart disease. What a charming factoid that is.

9:39 am

Scrabbler

((Elegant)) I hope we both feel better soon.

9:39 am

crosshair

they give my lady tunnel vision

9:39 am

Scrabbler

I have CO detectors

9:39 am

MLFAN17

hello

9:39 am

smores

Great tip Sam :)

9:39 am

crosshair

but her eyes are bad to begin with

9:39 am

Scrabbler

Higher risk for stroke.

9:40 am

Scrabbler

Hi new entrants. Chat log is flying.

9:40 am

smores

HI MLF :)

9:40 am

MLFAN17

hi smores

9:40 am

smores

wow..I didn't know that

9:40 am

Sam

Maybe check the batteries? I'd be suspicious of two people waking up with simultaneous migraines.

9:40 am

crosshair

i figure with her wicked migraines and my killer apnea,the mrs and i will just detonate one night and that will be it

9:40 am

MollyL

After hearing what JMC went through, everyone should check their homes for carbon monoxide.

9:41 am

smores

aww...crossy

9:41 am

bichon

hi Molly, crossy, Sam

9:41 am

Scrabbler

Migraines are on the spectrum of epilepsy too--an episodic event involving electrochemical changes in the brain.

9:41 am

smores

Definately, jmc is very lucky she has a cat

9:41 am

bichon

We don't have a furnace and don't use the chimney. I guess we're safe?

9:41 am

MollyL

I don't think Mrs. Crosshair and Scrabbs live together.
: D

9:41 am

Judi

Yep. Doc says if you have aura symptoms like temporary visual problems, facial numbness, etc., to get tested for heart disease. Fortunately, I don't have any of these symptoms when I get a migraine.

9:42 am

crosshair

good idea molly.though winter or summer there is always a window open a bit in the house as i loathe stuffy rooms with 'dead' air

9:43 am

Scrabbler

I put myself through a cardiac stress test every time I cross-country ski, etc.

9:43 am

bichon

That sounds risky Scrabs.

9:43 am

MLFAN17

stats for the first column R please?

9:43 am

Judi

On that cheerful not, I have to poof so I can get my work done. Later, peeps!

9:43 am

crosshair

lol,you should watch me snow shoe some days scwabby:) would make you chuckle

9:44 am

smores

I had to replace the smoke detectors last year and got the co/smoke combo

9:44 am

smores

Bye for now Judi...don't work too hard :)

9:44 am

bichon

Do dogs detect carbon monoxide?

9:44 am

Scrabbler

Not really, bichon. I tolerate rigorous exercise without shortness of breath, chest pain...good sign.

9:44 am

MollyL

Bich, you don't have a furnace? No heat?

9:44 am

Scrabbler

Snowshoeing is a tough workout too.

9:45 am

phaeton

Crossy...did you see that new TV show they are coming out with about bacon?

9:45 am

bichon

We have electric floorboard heat. It's zoned so we just don't heat the rooms we're not in

9:46 am

MLFAN17

?

9:46 am

crosshair

no,phae,i did not.i shall have to keep an eye out for it

9:46 am

MollyL

I visited a house like that once. Let me tell you what a rude awakening it was to use the bathroom with no heat when it was 15 degrees outside.

9:47 am

smores

BRB

9:47 am

bichon

Watson had to have his leg amputated. Long story, but he managed to chew through to the plates. I think he'll do great on three legs. He's going to be a therapy dog

9:47 am

MLFAN17

stats for the first columnR please??

9:47 am

bichon

We don't heat the bedrooms during the day

9:48 am

bichon

sorry MLF, looking for that too

9:48 am

MLFAN17

its hiding bichon:)

9:48 am

crosshair

here,we always heat the bathroom in winter.fool around with heating that area too much and you can kiss your plumbing goodbye in the winter and a plumber will cost more than the hydro you saved

9:48 am

Riverdance

re7/32 is the only one I have from that R

9:48 am

Scrabbler

Poor Watson.

9:48 am

MLFAN17

bichon do you have stats for the U?

9:49 am

phaeton

re6/21..re7/32

9:49 am

bichon

No, he somehow got his e-collar off. He was just doing what dogs do. He's going to bounce back real soon

9:49 am

MollyL

re 6/18 comes from that R too

9:49 am

MLFAN17

No 8 from that R either?

9:50 am

bichon

I now have the 6/21 and 7/32

9:50 am

MollyL

The 8's are wr and an

9:50 am

phaeton

There is no way I could do strenuous exercise in 17 degree weather. I am made of sturdy stuff, but not that sturdy.

Ah, the Ass Magnet is powerful. Seats pull that magnet right in.

10:04 am

Since it's not windy I don't really have an excuse.

10:08 am

smores

Haven't for many years, dealt with it anyway when the girls were younger, the sledding, fort building, snow ball fights...luckily for me they don't care for it anymore either.

TY, Erda. I was using comparative and superlative endings.

10:41 am

Erda

10:46 am

11:10 am

rubyfoo

11:10 am

rubyfoo

but not cr5 or ru4

11:10 am

MollyL

I think ish is a noun suffix.

11:11 am

smores

lol...ruruish

11:11 am

rubyfoo

and makes the noun into an adjective

11:11 am

smores

ones who likes to pun

11:11 am

MollyL

Oh you said vowels, not verbs.

11:11 am

rubyfoo

e.g., somebody REALLY smart would be mollyish! lol

11:11 am

smores

:)

11:12 am

11:21 am

smores

11:22 am

rubyfoo

the generic was only 30 euro cents cheaper

11:22 am

periwinkle

I love naps. I am a very good napper

11:22 am

MollyL

There are no su7s

11:22 am

1:38 pm

yep, sounds good. We have 15 cm snow he4. So far good freezing whether but from tonight on it is going to thaw... and more snow... and cold winds. Brrrrr.

1:39 pm

Dorens

i am in mild protest over the politicians of this country, their inability to get things accomplished, and the insane culture of violence that makes things like Newtown Ct's tragedy plausible

1:39 pm

sprite

I understand completely. Frustrating.

1:39 pm

Dorens

well, don't the dutch expect freezing? I read Hans Brinker when I was a kid and assumed that your rivers were always frozen over during winter :-)

1:40 pm

sprite

sure, most winters we have freezing. Also we have rain, wind, hail, an unexpected lovely day and more rain and wind. :)

1:41 pm

sprite

whether = weather*

1:41 pm

Dorens

which makes weather interesting

1:42 pm

sprite

true. It is never boring.

Sometimes it seems like the sun will never shine again, day after day of grey gloom, and then, just when we need it the most, there it is and it cheers us up so nicely, whereas we had been taking it for granted all along. We need to miss things sometimes.

1:44 pm

sprite

oh I agree! This morning, we were driving over the highway and the sun came up. It was HUGE, and so deep deep red, and the sky was clear but over the lands was fog, and it all coloured from the sun... it was incredible. Haven't had a clear sky for ages, so ti was a real treat.

1:45 pm

Dorens

good sunrises and good sunsets are always breathtaking.. never cease to thrill

1:45 pm

Dorens

ok.. babble break is over.. have to go be a school counselor. nice to see you, sprite.

1:46 pm

sprite

also, a bit later, we saw willows in the land. The fog was very low and you couldn't see the trunks. It was like the tree tops were floating in the air. Magic.

1:46 pm

sprite

nice to see you too, Dorens. Have a good day at work :)

5:46 pm

lilliann

i know liz, but she is weird like that as the majority of her friends would have been happy to have been off school for 5 weeks, she wasn't!!

5:46 pm

Lizlin

Passport - first thing on the list for Tuesday - Monday's a holiday!

5:46 pm

jmcnrick

cool that is like become a U.S. citizen on the 4th of July

5:46 pm

Lizlin

Yes but being off school sick or after an accident is probably not the same as holiday!

5:46 pm

lilliann

can you still use your british one aswell liz?

5:46 pm

jmcnrick

what is the holiday?

5:46 pm

Lizlin

Yes, I'll be dual!

5:47 pm

smores

Hi Liz :)

5:47 pm

Lizlin

Australia Day weekend but because Australia Day is today, a Saturday, Monday's a holiday.

5:47 pm

Lizlin

Hi smores :)

5:48 pm

jmcnrick

ah i see we do the same thing he**

5:48 pm

smores

gotta love those 3day weekends :)

5:48 pm

Lizlin

In fact I'll probably download the passport form first thing tomorrow - even if I can't get to the post office unitl Tuesday

5:48 pm

smores

What is Australia Day?

5:49 pm

jmcnrick

eh. . .3 day weekends are only good if you have a regular job. . . never did anything for me

5:49 pm

MollyL

It's like our 4th of July

5:49 pm

smores

Awesome weekend to become a citizen :)

5:50 pm

jmcnrick

australia day duly noted on calendar

5:50 pm

jmcnrick

yes it is good to become a citizen on a holiday like that

5:50 pm

Lizlin

On 26 Jan 1788 the First Fleet arrived from Great Britain - see, I learnt this stuff for my test!

5:51 pm

smores

:)

5:51 pm

jmcnrick

haha to become a US citizen you have to know stuff like that too

5:51 pm

Lizlin

Yes it's a special weekend! I passed the test back in early September - didn't expect to have to wait this long!

5:51 pm

MollyL

So Liz, you are just another UK import. : )

5:51 pm

jmcnrick

we**n't the portugese there fi***?

5:52 pm

jmcnrick

(at least she didn't come off a prison ship)

5:52 pm

Lizlin

Lots of stuff to learn but simple test! 45 mins to complete 20 multiple choice questions!

5:52 pm

Lizlin

Perhaps I did!!!! LOL! Yes, just another import, brought here by hubby!

5:52 pm

jmcnrick

haha

5:53 pm

smores

lol...very appropriate day then for you.

5:53 pm

Lizlin

Perhaps the Portuguese were fi*** but the Brits made more noise at the time!!!

5:53 pm

MollyL

And that must be why the Australians use all the UK phrases like "loo" and "going on holiday".

5:53 pm

jmcnrick

haha i really have no idea. . .not up on my aussie history

5:53 pm

smores

That hasn't changed :)

5:54 pm

Lizlin

Yes though it's quite a mix between US and UK here - the language generally UK but the towns more like US! Something to do with the space perhaps.

5:54 pm

jmcnrick

well all of babbleland celebrates with you i am sure!

5:54 pm

MollyL

*Puts some Fosters in the PB*

5:55 pm

jmcnrick

there. . . I am showing my solidarity!

5:55 pm

Lizlin

ty - If you're around early tomorrow am (like the same time I was last online) we'll all celebrate together!

5:55 pm

Lizlin

ty jmc!!!!

5:55 pm

jmcnrick

i will see if i can stay up to 3 am!

5:56 pm

Lizlin

Don't force yourself!!!! We'll catch up sometime!

5:56 pm

jmcnrick

i was so touched 4 years ago when babbleland showed their solidarity with Obama being president the same way. . . I wanted to return the compliment!

5:56 pm

Lizlin

It'll be about in 11 or 12 hours time I'd think, when I'm online tonight!

5:57 pm

Lizlin

That's great!

5:57 pm

MollyL

I'm all for celebrating Liz, but I don't change my flag allegiance for anything. I'll play my didgeridoo instead.

5:57 pm

jmcnrick

well i have gotten 10 hours sleep two nights in a row so it is entirely possible. . . at least i think it is about 3 here when you are at 7

5:57 pm

Lizlin

That's fine too - I'll join in any celebrations!

5:57 pm

jmcnrick

every celebrates in their own way molls!

5:57 pm

Lizlin

Ahh! So celebrate the ceremony!

5:58 pm

jmcnrick

*everyone

5:58 pm

smores

<---places a big jar of vegemite in pb

5:58 pm

Lizlin

Sorry still UK there - prefer marmite!

5:58 pm

Lizlin

But like the thought!

5:58 pm

jmcnrick

5:58 pm

smores

lol

5:58 pm

sciencegeek

5:58 pm

Lizlin

5:58 pm

Lizlin

5:59 pm

MollyL

Ew! Runs from icky vegemite!

5:59 pm

jmcnrick

yes see you science. . . i worked out seeing champ on monday at the crack of dawn

5:59 pm

Lizlin

I'm sure we can cater for you too Molly:)

5:59 pm

jmcnrick

champagne is a good substitute for the jack i cannot have this weekend

5:59 pm

Lizlin

Is this your wedding weekend mmc?

6:00 pm

Lizlin

jmc

6:00 pm

MollyL

I'm fine with the nachos from the co-existing tequila party.

6:00 pm

jmcnrick

*starts wiping champagne glasses spotless*

6:00 pm

jmcnrick

yes i was telling everyone about the great cowboy hat i bought for my friend

6:00 pm

jmcnrick

it has a "tiara" that lights up and a feather edge

6:01 pm

MollyL

Although Lilliann seems to have made off with the tequila.

6:01 pm

jmcnrick

i am bringing the decorations for the after party

6:01 pm

Lizlin

Exciting - have a wonderful weekend. We're also at a wedding tomorrow - invitation so informal - it states no entry without shirt!!!

6:01 pm

jmcnrick

i am sure there is more in the pb molls do you want me to look?

6:01 pm

Lizlin

Hmmm - perhaps lilli will join us and bring some more

6:01 pm

MollyL

Perfect. My kind of wedding.

6:02 pm

Lizlin

Ours too!

6:02 pm

jmcnrick

haha i went to a wedding where the invitation said very casual...short woud do but then when i got there the family was all in formal wear so i was glad i wore a long dress that could be casual or dressy

6:02 pm

smores

Well, I have to go, going to watch a movie with my girls, have a wonderful evening everyone. Be back later to finish.

6:02 pm

jmcnrick

i felt sorry for the woman who wore shorts. . . she looked embarrassed

6:02 pm

jmcnrick

by smores

6:03 pm

Lizlin

Bye smores - see you later. Enjoy your evening :)

6:03 pm

lilliann

bye smores.tc :)

6:03 pm

Lizlin

I'll go smart casual! Long wide trousers and flowy top.

6:03 pm

jmcnrick

*bye

6:04 pm

jmcnrick

good plan. . .have something that is ambiguous

6:04 pm

lilliann

throwi

6:04 pm

lilliann

throwi

6:04 pm

jmcnrick

nope the i is no where near

6:04 pm

jmcnrick

and molls is wondering where you hid the tequila

6:04 pm

lilliann

it must be the tequila...lol.i'm keeping it to myself

6:04 pm

MollyL

Too many "casuals" these days. Business casual, resort casual, smart casual...

6:05 pm

lilliann

throwing some bottles in as i pass by :)

6:05 pm

jmcnrick

i have no idea what any of that means molls

6:05 pm

jmcnrick

dont break them!!!

6:05 pm

Lizlin

I think that's the problem - no one really know!

6:06 pm

MollyL

Office attire is often branded: business casual. Resorts often require: resort casual. It's stipulated casual attire.

6:06 pm

jmcnrick

exactly and then people come wearing shorts and feel out of place. . . me i am wearing a long (but not floor length) dress on sunday

6:07 pm

Lizlin

Clues for any ai words please - I have the final two!

6:07 pm

lilliann

i'm throwing them in gently. i have a very long straw, hopefully i don't get the worm

6:07 pm

jmcnrick

although i did get some nice earrings at nieman's yesterday

6:07 pm

jmcnrick

oooo high class tequila with a worm!!!

6:08 pm

lilliann

what you put clothes on to dry and pl liz

6:08 pm

Lizlin

Yes, I'll dress what I wear up with jewellery - the family is very casual but you never know what to expect.

6:08 pm

Lizlin

Of course - ty. It's pouring here - should've thought of that!

6:09 pm

jmcnrick

clothes line?

6:09 pm

lilliann

well, i don't normally drink tequila, and i must admit i wouldn't buy a bottle with a worm in it, but when it's a party, alcohol is alcohol :)

6:10 pm

jmcnrick

i like tequila but not if i am driving. . . i will have to get my friend to drive tonight

6:10 pm

Lizlin

washing line! clothes line is obviously UK speak!

6:10 pm

lilliann

no, it is an indoor clothes dryer, that we use in the uk

6:10 pm

jmcnrick

clothes line is what i had growing up

6:10 pm

MollyL

To me, shorts should have been fine at a ceremony that was said to be "very casual". The problem was, everyone dressed up from that.

6:10 pm

Lizlin

OK I misread that - sorry for being obvious!

6:10 pm

lilliann

or to do with what we breathe

6:11 pm

jmcnrick

well if the family who sent the invite had wo** shorts....

6:11 pm

lilliann

they can hang off the radiators aswell

6:11 pm

jmcnrick

ty lilliann i gots it

6:11 pm

lilliann

thank god for that :)

6:12 pm

jmcnrick

that was the thing i didn't like is they sent this invitation saying summer casual and then wo** a wedding dress and a suit and the mother etc wo** nice dresses

6:12 pm

jmcnrick

okay i must be going to the party to flack my organization. . .bbl to celebrate with liz!

6:13 pm

Lizlin

i suspect that'll be the case tomorrow! Especially as the bride is very ar 6ic and designs clothiers!

6:13 pm

Lizlin

Bye jmc - enjoy your evening. See you later :)

6:13 pm

lilliann

bye jmc.have a good time.

6:13 pm

MollyL

It's unfair to your guests to stipulate a dress code and then dress above that.

6:14 pm

Lizlin

This is the first time I've been to a wedding here (son of a friend getting married) - in the UK I always knew exactly what to wear. Must admit to being a bit confused here!

6:15 pm

Lizlin

Sorry pb on 2 counts! Call it nerves!

6:15 pm

MollyL

Isn't the dress code in the UK funny hats and suits for everything?

6:15 pm

lilliann

enjoy the tequila and loo roll hats :)

6:16 pm

Lizlin

Exactly! :)

6:17 pm

lilliann

not really molly. some people wear hats, usually the mothers of the bride and groom, but it is more casual now.the men tend to wear either shirts open at the top or shirts and jacket or shirts and tie without jackets

6:18 pm

lilliann

only royal weddings and pompous peoples parties

6:19 pm

MollyL

My boys always wore a suit and tie to weddings and still do.

6:20 pm

lilliann

some people still do but it is more casual now as not every can or wants to wear one

6:20 pm

Lizlin

Peeps out of PB - is it time to come out now?

6:20 pm

MollyL

Watch out for flying tequila bottles Liz.

6:21 pm

lilliann

i do like a man in a suit though.the only problem is that my husband can't do a shirt up around his neck as he can't get a collar big enough

6:21 pm

Lizlin

I'll duck!

6:21 pm

lilliann

aye, more getting thrown is as liz as drunk them all :)

6:21 pm

Lizlin

My hubby hates ties - finds them v. restricting.

6:21 pm

Lizlin

But he looks so smart in them :)

6:21 pm

MollyL

My youngest son is 6' 4". I have to get his dress shirts at big mens shops.

6:22 pm

Lizlin

slur... slur....slur

6:22 pm

Lizlin

That's tall!

6:23 pm

lilliann

mine never did liz but now he wears them for work and they have to cover the button that he has to have undone. my hubby is only 6foot but he has a 19 and a half inch neck, so not easy to get the shirts

6:23 pm

uusue2

hi again all!

6:23 pm

lilliann

hi sue

6:23 pm

Lizlin

Hi sue :)

6:24 pm

uusue2

hi liz and lilli!

6:30 pm

periwinkle

I want to sent up another e-mail account. which would better to use: hotmail or gmail?

6:30 pm

uusue2

I would say gmail, peri

6:31 pm

MollyL

Either one is fine Peri. Hotmail is easier to navigate.

6:31 pm

periwinkle

ok

6:31 pm

lilliann

sorry peri, i'm not computor minded so no help

6:31 pm

periwinkle

now I am confused.

6:32 pm

MollyL

Why confused? Take a look at both and see which one suits you best.

6:32 pm

periwinkle

I will do that. bye for now

6:32 pm

Lizlin

Hi and bye peri :)

6:32 pm

uusue2

good advice, molly!

6:33 pm

lilliann

bye peri

6:33 pm

uusue2

I got fed up with hotmail several years ago but I'm sure it's completely different now

6:35 pm

Nef

Good Evening Everybody! How are you all this chilly evening?

6:36 pm

welki

hi, babblers

6:36 pm

uusue2

hi nef! It's not so bad here today although we are supposed to get close to zero again tonight

6:36 pm

lilliann

hi nef.chilly :(

6:36 pm

lilliann

hi welki

6:37 pm

DR1965

help with the wh7 please

6:37 pm

Nef

It was actually up to 20F today; but the wind chill made it below zero feeling. I made the mistake of running out to the compost earlier without a jacket (the sun was shining so bright!) and haven't warmed up since then

6:37 pm

lilliann

the snow is still coming down hard here and they haven't griited the road today as the school that is opposite us is shut tomorrow, so that's going to be fun driving on..not!

6:37 pm

MollyL

wh7...like a tawdry woman

6:38 pm

uusue2

we are supposed to get an inch of ice (freezing rain) Sunday night, I am not looking forward to that

6:38 pm

DR1965

ty Molly

6:39 pm

lilliann

hi dr

6:39 pm

Nef

haven't seen you for a long time DR; have you been gone or just lurking a lot?

6:40 pm

DR1965

a little of both

6:40 pm

lilliann

we're suppose to get snow where i live for a couple more days and then it will start thawing so they say england will then have floods...what joy! freezing rain isn't good sue

6:41 pm

Nef

I'm finding that when our grandson is here these days, I'm not getting online at all. (His Mom's been "off" again)

6:41 pm

uusue2

oh dear, Nef, sorry to hear that (about his mom)

6:41 pm

Nef

oh, lilliann, stay warm and dry!

6:41 pm

welki

aw nef - like you don't have enough to do. but i'll bet the little guy is fun to have around most of the time :)

6:42 pm

DR1965

Kids will do htat to you Nef..

6:42 pm

lilliann

i have the heating on and my gas fire, it hasn't helped that we have just come back from mexico nef so we are feeling the cold more at the moment

6:42 pm

DR1965

Even if they are gradkids

6:42 pm

lilliann

sorry to hear that nef

6:42 pm

Nef

he is fun; but he wouldn't go to bed till 11:30 the other night. I think he worries about his Mom; and he says he has scary dreams

6:43 pm

DR1965

* grandkids... as you can see- I still can't type

6:43 pm

welki

holiday in mexico was good, lilliann?

6:43 pm

uusue2

it has to be hard on him, nef, and he's still a little young to really understand, I think (if he's the one I met)

6:43 pm

welki

how old is he now?

6:43 pm

Nef

Mexican holiday.... sounds fun! AND Warm! :-)

6:43 pm

lilliann

aww, bless him nef

6:43 pm

MollyL

Nef, is his Mom getting any help?

6:44 pm

Nef

sue, he's our only grandchild (and probably will remain that way according to our kids). He's now 3 1/2 yrs old

6:44 pm

lilliann

it was brilliant thanks welki.i would definitely recommend it.we are looking for next christmas but too expensive at the moment

6:45 pm

welki

he's lucky to have you, nef

6:45 pm

lilliann

ditto, what welki said

6:45 pm

uusue2

he was a little sweetie :-)

6:45 pm

Nef

I took her in the the ER on Monday, they aDMITTED HER TO A CRISIS CENTER THAT NIGHT; SHE SIGNED HERSELF OUT YESTERDAY.

6:46 pm

Nef

OOPS! Sorry about yelling

6:46 pm

welki

egads - you must be exhausted

6:46 pm

MollyL

Don't be. I would yell about that. *Sigh* It's so sad what a mess our mental health system is.

6:47 pm

uusue2

it is SO hard to get mental health care - as molly said!!

6:47 pm

lilliann

can they not section her so she can't sign herself out?

6:47 pm

DR1965

HUGS NEF

6:47 pm

Nef

I wish my son would admit her and she had no say in getting out.

6:48 pm

Nef

lillian, there is a 72 hour hold that they can keep her; but not longer than that

6:48 pm

MollyL

If I'm not mistaken, in order for a 72 hour hold, someone needs to say she is a danger to herself and/or others. It sounds like she is.

6:48 pm

lilliann

oh ok.so if your son admitted her they can keep her in longer?

6:50 pm

lilliann

when i worked in mental health years ago, someone could get sectioned and kept in as long as needed

6:51 pm

Nef

She was admitting to suicidal thoughts when I took her in. I really don't know if someone else admits a person if they'd keep them longer or not; but I just feel like she shouldn't be allowed to go home because she wants to go (she thinks she can treat herself instead of letting someone else direct her care)

6:51 pm

welki

depends on the legislation in the particular jurisdiction, lilliann

6:52 pm

Nef

here in MN the 72 hour hold rule has been in effect for many, many years.

6:53 pm

lilliann

oh ok welki.obviously different over here as we don't have different states

6:53 pm

Nef

anyway, could I have the stas for the 8 and 10 letter words?

6:53 pm

MollyL

If she was admitting to suicidal thoughts they should have put her on a 72 hour hold. And this, among many other things, is what is wrong with mental health care in our country.

6:54 pm

uusue2

me too! (for the 8 and 10)

6:54 pm

wvteach

an 8/45 and an 10/77

6:54 pm

welki

mental health care stinks everywhere. i resourced a young man to a program, he ended up in the hospital. because he's not a resident and not entitled to health care in this province, it's my understanding that they are discharging him and putting him on a bus to ontario. i've been in touch with his case worker and am trying to get him services here.

6:54 pm

Lizlin

hi nef :) sorry things are tough right now

6:54 pm

Lizlin

hi welki :)

6:55 pm

lilliann

it's a shame she won't accept the help nef, it can't be easy for any of you.big hugs to you.i hope she can and will get the help she so needs

6:55 pm

welki

wr8/65 (from the 6/33, 7/48)

6:55 pm

welki

liz!

6:55 pm

uusue2

hi welki and wv!

6:55 pm

lilliann

can he not get the help in ontario welki?

6:55 pm

MollyL

Nef, your grandson is so lucky to have you. That is scary stuff for a little one to go through.

6:56 pm

Lizlin

not talking much - just put nail varnish on - one finger typing is slow

6:57 pm

welki

nef - you are such a good soul and you know, from all your experience, that you can't help anyone who doesn't want help. it''s always just a matter of time - unfortunately, it's the little guy who'll need help down the line

6:58 pm

welki

yes, lilliann, he can - his parents are there and they've offered to help, but this is a young man who is seriously ill - who's to say he won't get off the bus at a rest stop and start walking? it's -35 in some northern cities now

6:58 pm

Nef

well, I keep praying for her and that she gets the help she needs. I love that little guy and want to keep him safe through all this. He had his last day of pre-school today so is home now; but my son will bring him back tomorrow; so I need to Babble while I can! :-D

6:58 pm

MollyL

Nail varnish and loo paper. I'm learning the lingo. : )

6:59 pm

Lizlin

yay molly :)

6:59 pm

MollyL

I lit a candle for your whole clan Nef.

6:59 pm

welki

liz - big day today, eh?

6:59 pm

lilliann

what do you call nail varnish then molly?

7:00 pm

Lizlin

my thoughts with you and yours nef

7:00 pm

uusue2

nail polish, lilli

7:00 pm

Nef

thank you all.

7:00 pm

MollyL

We polish our nails and varnish our floors. : )

7:01 pm

uusue2

got the wr8 but still befuddled by the an words (I know what the first 4 letters are, it's the last 6 that are giving me trouble)

7:01 pm

Lizlin

i think we do the opposite - lol

7:01 pm

lilliann

oh, i see welki, i didn't read the bus bit properly.at the end of the day he is canadian or living in the country so what does it matter what province he lives in? don't tell me...money!

7:01 pm

welki

... and sometimes get shellacked

7:01 pm

Lizlin

a brave person, sue

7:01 pm

uusue2

we can polish our floors too, it just depends...

7:01 pm

welki

superman, sue

7:02 pm

Nef

LOL! I've polished my floors with carnuba wax on my hands and knees in the past, Molly (but they need to be re-varnished again right now)

7:02 pm

lilliann

we polish our floors and our wooden/glass furniture

7:02 pm

MollyL

So long as you don't polish anything with your loo paper.
: )

7:02 pm

uusue2

ok, got them, thanks! nbs

7:02 pm

Lizlin

and pl he 4 / 6

7:02 pm

Lizlin

7:03 pm

lilliann

7:04 pm

Lizlin

lol

7:04 pm

welki

loo-rigami swans?

7:05 pm

Lizlin

7:05 pm

lilliann

7:05 pm

MollyL

*Sneaks tequila bottle while Lilliann isn't looking*

7:05 pm

Lizlin

dont keep you dry

7:06 pm

lilliann

no, they don't like water, they are sun worshipping swans

7:06 pm

welki

sure they do, they're absorbent

7:06 pm

lilliann

i saw that molly!

7:06 pm

lilliann

throwing loo roll at molly

7:06 pm

Lizlin

my kind of swan - swans not real here - they're black!

7:07 pm

welki

liz, we have something like that here - squirrels, where i grew up, are brown and grey - here, they're black!

7:07 pm

lilliann

pretty though liz

7:07 pm

welki

every now and then, i see a brown one and i wonder if it has a visa :)

7:07 pm

lilliann

black squirrels?

7:07 pm

Lizlin

Miss squirrels - so excited to see them last time in London!

7:08 pm

Nef

we have grey and red squirrels here; but now there are some black ones too

7:08 pm

Lizlin

Yes pretty - lovely birds here

7:08 pm

lilliann

the grey ones are rats.we don't see many red ones here now because of the horrible grey ones

7:08 pm

Nef

I'm still trying to picture a black swan. Seems strange...

7:08 pm

Lizlin

Used to love watching them jump through trees, from branch to branch

7:09 pm

Lizlin

Bright red beaks!

7:09 pm

Lizlin

black swans that is, not squirrels

7:09 pm

the red squirrels are the destructive ones here. They've chewed holes in our garden shed!

Nef

WOW, Liz! (Off to Google them now)

7:10 pm

lilliann

i saw a grey one in mexico.they have loads of coatis too which were lovely to watch and the other animals that look like big guinea pigs, but i can't remember there names.we also saw monkeys in a sister hotel and were sat there for hours watching them in the trees

7:10 pm

welki

black swans are lovely, but just as cantankerous as white ones

7:10 pm

lilliann

the grey ones kill the red ones

7:10 pm

Lizlin

You'll probably get the film, nef!

7:11 pm

MollyL

If you start seeing black squirrels with red beaks, you have had too much tequila.

7:11 pm

Lizlin

lol

7:11 pm

Nef

they are very different looking swans, Liz.

7:12 pm

Lizlin

Hubby claims the white ones are the impostors! I disagree!

7:12 pm

Lizlin

Both look gorgeous!

7:14 pm

Nef

they are gorgeous, the first picture I saw looke dlike a cross between a turkey and a duck though (it was fluffing it's feathers or something)

7:14 pm

Lizlin

lilliann

7:17 pm

Nef

rururocks

:D :D :D :D :D

7:22 pm

Lizlin

More real look???

7:22 pm

MollyL

Poor thing. His parents disowned him because he was a goat.

7:22 pm

Lizlin

And I use real with a huge pinch of salt!

7:24 pm

rururocks

pinch of something that's for sure

7:25 pm

Lizlin

Figures. <---Pretends to be the sanctimonious judge of all things Babble chat. : D : D : D

7:28 pm

rururocks

7:28 pm

rururocks

7:32 pm

MollyL

Easy for you to say.

7:33 pm

Nef

Dang Dog! Just puked all over the Lazy Boy chair (I've been off cleaning it up just now)

7:33 pm

rururocks

7:34 pm

DR1965

You need to burn some sage Nef

7:35 pm

welki

ohh, nef, when it rains, it pours

7:35 pm

Nef

to cleanse the bad vibes here, DR?

7:36 pm

torgone

It's raining poop there?

DR1965

7:36 pm

welki

7:36 pm

7:38 pm

72 Temple Owl

*dons surgical mask* i don't feel so well... and i am not prepared for this. too snowy to go out

7:38 pm

Nef

I told DH this AM that if the dog keeps mis-behaving; it might be time to put him down. He's 14 years old now and has been peeing (and occasionally pooping) in the house this past couple of weeks. He was quite ill in December; but seemed to be better lately

7:39 pm

72 Temple Owl

i cannot get sick! i WILL not get sick!

7:39 pm

MollyL

Some people say "poof" when they leave, Ruby says "woof"...it appears Ru's new exit line is "poop"
: D : D : D

7:39 pm

DR1965

good luck TO

7:39 pm

welki

nef, he's probably picking up on all the stuff going on

7:40 pm

72 Temple Owl

aha. you are right. out all week doing pr shaking hands, etc

7:40 pm

MollyL

Nef, your husband may be right. The last thing you need is a dog peeing, pooping and puking all over your house.

7:40 pm

welki

owl - take it for what it's worth, but when i started feeling icky a couple of weeks ago, i took a 1/4 tsp of cinnamon in some honey 3x a day - maybe placebo effect, maybe not, but i think it worked

7:41 pm

72 Temple Owl

and my partner on tuesday night was ill and i kept having to get really close, the music was so loud, to talk to each other

7:41 pm

Nef

I agree, Molly. We are kind of going back and forth on that right now

7:41 pm

MollyL

Oh no wait, Nef YOU may be right

7:41 pm

72 Temple Owl

oh nef, that is a tough one

7:42 pm

welki

how attached is your grandson to your dog, nef? may want to wait, even if only for a little while

7:42 pm

Jillyjill

Nef!! I have some news on your Dr Watters....

7:42 pm

Nef

I'm not sure if the potty habits are laziness or fear of going out though.

7:43 pm

lilliann

7:43 pm

72 Temple Owl

7:44 pm

Jillyjill

Did you see my previous post to you Nef?

7:45 pm

Nef

7:51 pm

Jillyjill

Besides, he is really a nice guy and great doc

7:52 pm

Nef

Molly, he was DH's Er doc for less than an hour; but he was very caring and kind to both DH and me. That left an impression on me.

7:52 pm

welki

he's a doc you work with, jilly?

7:52 pm

Jillyjill

Not directly, he is in the ER, I work in Surgery Center

7:52 pm

MollyL

But not his cuteitude, right Nef? : P

7:53 pm

Nef

Jilly, I've forgotten to ask you before: how big is your hospital?

7:53 pm

rururocks

hope he's not a gynecologist...

7:53 pm

welki

oh ru, then he'd be a dyno gyno

7:53 pm

MollyL

Me too, for Mr. Nef's sake.

7:53 pm

rururocks

ha

7:53 pm

Jillyjill

Small rural...50 bed, but huge ER and OP departments

7:54 pm

rururocks

LOL welki..

7:54 pm

Nef

Molly, I couldn't help noticing that he looked Very Young! (and yes, he was cute; but too young for me to get excited about)

7:54 pm

rururocks

..there're never too young nef..:D

7:55 pm

Jillyjill

<----admits to a motherly look at him as well....

7:55 pm

rururocks

they're .. i mean

7:55 pm

Jillyjill

Yep ruru, if the young males misbehave one can give them a spanking ;)

7:55 pm

Nef

LOL, maybe for you, ru,

7:55 pm

rururocks

Nef

LOL! Are we picking on you or are you 3 sheets to the wind

7:56 pm

rururocks

loooooooooooooonnnnng week

7:57 pm

rururocks

I am never three sheets to the wind.. I like to think I'm between the sheets

7:58 pm

rururocks

I've actually cut way back on drinking..

7:58 pm

Nef

I'm wishing it was Friday myself; this has been a long week for me too (and I didn't work!)

7:59 pm

welki

it felt like the longest week to me, too - maybe you need to kick back and do something fun tomorrow or sunday

7:59 pm

rururocks

great idea welki.. but it's going to be raining here ugh

8:00 pm

welki

so take the mrs. to a movie or bowling - and pizza

8:00 pm

rururocks

movie sounds good

8:00 pm

rururocks

good idea

8:00 pm

MollyL

And you can't think of anything fun to do indoors? Losing your touch.

8:01 pm

rururocks

we don't have a bowling alley anywhere near us..

8:01 pm

welki

i think people should go bowling more often - i've never heard of anyone not having a good time bowling

8:01 pm

rururocks

her back is out right now molly

8:01 pm

rururocks

:D : D:D

8:01 pm

welki

so make the drive to s.f., go bowling, rent a room and ohhh la la

8:01 pm

Nef

I think I'll be working on securing a train tracks to a board for the grandson tomorrow. I'm trying to decide if I should glue, nail, or ??? it on the board though. Any ideas on which would work best?

8:01 pm

welki

nevermind - no bowling, no oooh la la for ru this weekend

8:02 pm

MollyL

Walks in the rain for you then. : D

8:02 pm

rururocks

no.. nope.. no ooooh la la

8:02 pm

rururocks

no idea nef.

8:02 pm

rururocks

I would guess nails

8:02 pm

welki

maybe nail or staple, nef - if you glue, there's no flex

8:03 pm

welki

so movie and pizza, ru - date night :)

8:03 pm

Nef

Darn, I was hoping someone had tackled that job in the past and give expert advice...

8:03 pm

rururocks

sounds like a plan to me

8:04 pm

origami

Hi babbling friends

8:04 pm

rururocks

got to help mrs ru with some chores.. bb later

8:04 pm

welki

what's the worst that could happen if you do either? you undo it, nef. he's 3, you'll be his he**ine, no matter which one you choose

8:04 pm

welki

hi origami

8:05 pm

Nef

(I bought a 4 X 3 foot sheet of plywood to put it onsince he was too rough for the tracks to stay together when we've been playing with it lately)

8:05 pm

Jillyjill

<----thinks nef is an awesome grandma!!

8:06 pm

Nef

hi origami.

8:08 pm

Nef

<hangs head; kicks dirt> Aw, Shucks, Jilly. I just love kids and want him to grow up normal. (I dote on him and my "adopted" grandkids)

8:08 pm

MollyL

You do a great job Nef. No need to hang head or kick dirt.

8:09 pm

Jillyjill

I sure hope I get to be a grandma again....

8:09 pm

Jillyjill

hello origami

8:09 pm

Nef

how many grandkids do you have, Jilly?

8:10 pm

MollyL

I didn't know you were a grandma Jill.

8:10 pm

Jillyjill

Had...past tense ... step-grandma for 3 years...

8:12 pm

Nef

oh. Sorry that you aren't still involved. :-(

8:12 pm

MollyL

So your husband has kids from a previous marriage?

8:14 pm

Jillyjill

No, eldest son had a 'starter marriage' ;'(

8:14 pm

MimiCat

Nef, give some thought to adhesive backed mesh strips---the kind that you push together and pull apart over and over....sorry, having a senior moment and can't for the life of me remember what they're actually called. Anyway, you could affix one adhesive side to the board and the other to the bottom of the track and mesh them together. Sounds good in theory anyway.

8:14 pm

MollyL

Oh sorry Jill. I was taking step-grandma in the literal sense.

8:14 pm

Jillyjill

velcro

8:15 pm

Nef

velcro, sue?

8:15 pm

MimiCat

((Jilly)) THANK YOU!!! Yes...velcro!! DUH.

8:15 pm

MimiCat

Hey, I've been sick.......

8:15 pm

Nef

(((Jilly)))

8:15 pm

Jillyjill

<---sympathizes with those 'senior moments'

8:15 pm

72 Temple Owl

hi mimi, sorry to hear

8:16 pm

MimiCat

My eldest says if I ever get Alzheimer's they won't be able to tell the difference....sad but true.

8:16 pm

MimiCat

Thanks, TO. Been sick since Sunday and still have the worst chest congestion, sore throat and headache. I'm tired of this now!!!

8:17 pm

Nef

Sorry, MimiCat. I saw your icon and thought you were uusue! (need to get my eyes checked I guess)

8:17 pm

72 Temple Owl

ooh, there could be some interesting clue ic 4s today

8:17 pm

MimiCat

I'll take that as a compliment, Nef.

8:18 pm

MollyL

It's okay Nef. It looks like the kind of ic4 Sue would have. : )

8:18 pm

Nef

I hope you don't have the flu, Mimi!

8:18 pm

Jillyjill

Well guys, we knew the marriage probably wasn't going to last, but we loved our little grandson like it would last....still pray for little Jonas...poor child

8:19 pm

MimiCat

As the saying goes, I don't care what you call me just as long as you call me! Yep...that's what it is--tenacious flu.

8:19 pm

72 Temple Owl

i am praying i don't have norovirus

8:20 pm

MimiCat

I just read about that, TO....wicked.

8:20 pm

Nef

I belong in the PB now, don't I? Well, I'll bring my popcorn and choclits along; hope there's some good stuff to drink in the PB

8:20 pm

MollyL

*Trails after Nef for popcorn and chocolate*

8:21 pm

72 Temple Owl

all i ate wa a ham sandiwch and it did not agree

8:21 pm

MollyL

There was a lot of tequila in the PB, but Lilliann drank it all.

8:21 pm

Jillyjill

There was hot chocolate earlier nef...

8:22 pm

MimiCat

I just had spicy chile in an attempt to burn that congestion on out. Am also trying to drown it.

8:22 pm

Nef

Jilly, did the ex cut you guys off from the grandchild? I don't know what I'd do if I couldn't see Ronnie. (But at least my D-I-L admits she couldn't care for him if they split)

8:22 pm

Jillyjill

<----if it'd been gin, molly would have accused me of finishing it off

8:22 pm

MollyL

And I put some Fosters in there for Lizlin's citizenship celebration, but I doubt Nef is a beer drinker.

8:23 pm

MollyL

Because you would have Jill. Face the harsh truth.

8:23 pm

72 Temple Owl

aww, sick or not i would love some chocolate

8:23 pm

Nef

I'm digging around for hot choclit or hot apple cider; alcohiol would ruijmn my spelin! ;-)

8:23 pm

Jillyjill

Well, it was her son by a previous relationship and truely better not to be entangled with her. At one point child protective services wanted my son to take guardianship, but he couldn't as he was in Coast Guard then.

8:24 pm

MollyL

*Hands TO a delicious, rich chocolate*

8:24 pm

gapeach

Mimicat, just love your photos.

8:24 pm

Nef

With marshmallows and whipped cream on top too (for TO)

8:25 pm

MollyL

Wow Jill, no wonder you said step-grandson. I don't think there is a term for your son's wife's child by a previous marriage.

8:25 pm

MimiCat

Thanks so much, peach! This latest one is sunset at the North Pole.

8:25 pm

Lizlin

Hi again :)

8:26 pm

Jillyjill

Not previous marriage, was a guy she met in rehab....need I say more...

8:26 pm

MimiCat

OK--weird family ties---something I know about. I happen to be my own sister and my own aunt....

8:26 pm

Lizlin

Sorry to read you've been sick, Mimi. Hope you're feeling better :)

8:26 pm

MimiCat

((Liz))

8:26 pm

Nef

Jilly, I have a nephew in Msla who has a son by a crazy woman. Turns out she'd had 3 or 4 kids before my nephew got involved with her and CPS took them all away. She would make the babies but was too crazy to care for them.

8:26 pm

MollyL

No, you need not say more. Poor kid. I'm glad he had you in his life for a while.

8:27 pm

72 Temple Owl

aww, ty. anyone have a ginger ale i can't believe i let me supply lapse.

8:28 pm

72 Temple Owl

or even a cuppa

8:28 pm

MimiCat

I was adopted by my paternal grandmother and her fourth husband and was raised with my biological father as my brother....thus my own sister and aunt.

8:28 pm

gapeach

Hey, y'all, I had a bone density scan Monday....Wednesday the doctor told me I have severe osteoperosis (sp)....gave me some samples of Atelvia. I read the stuff inside the package....I have everything that I am told not to take...except I not pregnant. OK, well, do any of you have any suggestions of what foods or minerals I might try? Thanks

8:29 pm

Nef

Mimi, I believe in hot honey lemon tea when I'm congested. But TO, I have some plain chamoille (which I can't spell) to settle your tummy

8:29 pm

Lizlin

Or a weak peppermint tea

8:30 pm

72 Temple Owl

peachy: i have the same. not sure what is your age and not asking, but try to get a med tha may work if it is severe. dr. should have known better than to give to you

8:30 pm

Lizlin

Hey Peach - sorry to read that

8:30 pm

gapeach

Oh, TO, I'm 74.

8:30 pm

72 Temple Owl

have you been taking calcium

8:31 pm

MimiCat

Sorry, all, am fading and need to lie down....again. Good talking with all of you and be back tomorrow. Hugs all around.

8:31 pm

Nef

Wow, peach. I agree with TO; that doctor whould have known better than that

8:31 pm

72 Temple Owl

i am on calcium supplements and prolia since the other drug stopped working

8:31 pm

Lizlin

Bye Mimi - feel better soon :)

8:32 pm

72 Temple Owl

bye mimi get some rest and see you tomorrow

8:32 pm

MimiCat

Oh, and peach, you need to take Vitamin D in order to properly process the calcium....now I'm gone.

8:32 pm

Nef

Take care of yourself, Mimi. Gentle hugs (from a great distance though)

8:32 pm

MollyL

Peach, sending you some healing thoughts.

8:32 pm

gapeach

No, TO, I have a calcium knot on one of my finger joints.....I know I don't get the right food ...I'm diabetic also.....

8:32 pm

72 Temple Owl

yes. and take calcium staggered, not all together.

8:32 pm

Lizlin

Peach, I'd certainly talk to the doctor about what he's given you - if you have counter-symptoms to the drug.

8:33 pm

gapeach

Mimi, I do take 1000 IU of Vitamin D per day.

8:33 pm

72 Temple Owl

ok, not proper to give med advice. but for most of the drugs, which bulld bone, yo umust have calcium or your blood calcium will go down

8:33 pm

gapeach

Thanks To, Lizlin, Nef and Molly.

8:34 pm

MollyL

Peach, definitely talk to your doctor. And make sure that nothing, not even your vitamin intake will interfere with your medication. Self-medicating even vitamins can have bad consequences when mixed with prescription medication.

8:34 pm

Nef

Vitamin D3 is very important; have your blood level checked and see if you're taking the right dose though. My daughter is now on 50,000 units/week because her blood level was too low

8:35 pm

72 Temple Owl

i have a condition where i excrete my calcium, as did my father and my brother. so my bones are losing it. no one found it until it was too late.

8:35 pm

Nef

Molly is right: for something as simple as a thyroid medication, you can't take vitamins or minerals within 4 hours of taking the synthyroid

8:35 pm

gapeach

OK, Nef. I have been with this doctor for about 30 years and if I had taken all of the med he has prescribed for me I would have been dead years ago.

8:36 pm

72 Temple Owl

for them, they got kidney stones. for me, my blood calcium gets too low because the med gobble it up and i don't have enough to feed it

8:37 pm

Nef

are you seeing an internist? I'd strongly encourage you to see someone younger if he's not on top of your meds and such

8:37 pm

MollyL

Synthroid is a weird medication because you are supposed to have a clear system (of food and any other medication) before you take it. This I know, because I'm on it.

8:38 pm

gapeach

Molly, is that the same as Atelvia?

8:38 pm

Nef

I know, Molly. I get up and take mine when I have to get up to the BR during the night! (I know, TMI)

8:39 pm

MollyL

No Peach, Ateliva is osteo medication. Synthroid is thyroid medication.

8:39 pm

Nef

BUT at the sasme time, when you're hospitalized, they give it with your regular 8 AM meds!

8:39 pm

gapeach

Oh, thanks hon.

8:39 pm

MollyL

That is what I do too Nef. But I'm taking myself to the bathroom. : D

8:40 pm

Nef

peach; up here in MN nearly everyone is on thyroid meds because we don't have the iodine intake that people along the coasts have.

8:40 pm

MollyL

Don't get me started on hospitalized medication dispensation. It breaks so many rules.

8:41 pm

Jillyjill

I always took mine when I first got up, then would take my shower. By the time I got down i could eat

8:41 pm

gapeach

Oh,Nef, that is too bad.

8:42 pm

MollyL

But Jill, if you are talking about synthroid, that doesn't account for the 4 hour thing. Unless you take a REALLY early shower.

8:43 pm

gapeach

And thanks for the good vibes and energy....I do know that they work.

8:43 pm

Nef

I know so many people who are on it and have never read the med info on it.

8:44 pm

Nef

and peach; just want you to know I have you on my daily "list" :-)

8:44 pm

MollyL

Peach, consider them threads in the warm blanket of thoughts and prayers that surround you. It's a great visualization.

8:45 pm

Jillyjill

ahh, no, mine was levothyroxine...

8:45 pm

gapeach

One of my SIL takes EVERYTHING her doctor gives her without question. I have tried to warn her about some of the things she takes.

8:45 pm

Lizlin

Hugs and good thoughts to you, peach. Hope the medication is sorted soon :)

8:45 pm

Nef

Molly, usually you don't have to hold foods for more than 1 hour; it gets through your stomach and into your system fast; so I think that Jilly is okay

8:46 pm

MollyL

Levothyroxine and synthroid are the same thing.

8:47 pm

Jillyjill

Yep, it is one hour

8:47 pm

gapeach

Thanks Nef and Molly. You all (and others) here are in my nightly prayers.....I'm still sending to

8:48 pm

Nef

How did you get off it, Jilly? Newer tests?

8:48 pm

MollyL

I was just going to ask the same question Nef.

8:50 pm

gapeach

You are right, Molly, it is a great visualization!

8:50 pm

Nef

(I was diagnosed as having hypothyroidism as a kid; but once the testing improved and there were blood tests for it; they decided I didn't have it.

8:51 pm

gapeach

Nef, do you use it on the animals too?

8:51 pm

72 Temple Owl

10:14 pm

stidmama

hey nef. ARGH. But the experienced teachers gave me strategies for next week, and keep reaffirming my efforts and reassuring me that being aware and making an effort to improve is what matters (which I DO know and say to my students, but forget to apply to myself)

10:15 pm

Jillyjill

<---thinks jmc is tempted to come too....

10:15 pm

10:16 pm

stidmama

10:17 pm

Nef

Okay; how about if I say it's by a river then? :-D

10:18 pm

10:18 pm

10:20 pm

Nef

LOL! Last time we tried to go to a wedding in Missoula DH got sick and ended up in the hospital off and on all summer; the time before that we lost the church. I guess I don't have a great history of getting to Montana weddings; do I?

10:21 pm

Jillyjill

Give a year our two...

10:21 pm

jmcnrick

it was the rocky mountain spaghetti factory

10:21 pm

stidmama

10:21 pm

stidmama

I think perhaps your luck is going to change this time, Nef

10:21 pm

jmcnrick

you lost the church! that was careless of you. . .what did the bridal couple do without a church?

10:21 pm

Jillyjill

Ahh, yes, I remember it well. Was in the Baxter Hotel. Believe another restaurant has replaced it.

10:22 pm

Nef

I certainly hope so, stid.

10:22 pm

stidmama

and were you wearing blue, jilly? and was it may?

10:22 pm

Jillyjill

We might have even crossed paths then... went to college in 77/78 and the summer

10:23 pm

jmcnrick

all time favorite line from the importance of being ernest: losing one parent is unfortunate but losing two parents is simply careless

10:23 pm

stidmama

ah yes.... you remember it well. *grin

10:23 pm

stidmama

*

10:23 pm

jmcnrick

10:24 pm

Jillyjill

â™« a tenor sang â™«

10:24 pm

Nef

jmc. my siblings were going to drive one of their cars over and we were supposed to follow them to the church. Every darn one of them Forgot to come to our hotel; so we tried to find the church ourselves (this was before cell phones were common); and there were too many different churches with "Jesus Christ" in their names; so we took the yellow pages and started driving around Missoula looking for the right church....

10:25 pm

rururocks

hello kids

10:26 pm

jmcnrick

10:26 pm

Nef

10:27 pm

rururocks

10:27 pm

Jillyjill

10:29 pm

Jillyjill

I know, I really feel duped.

10:29 pm

stidmama

thanks ruru -- could use some really obnoxious puns this evening.

10:29 pm

jmcnrick

my theory is that the person/s who did this learned that we are genrous, loving people. . . maybe they learned something about how to treat people

10:29 pm

rururocks

*does the sun rise in your parallel universe Jm?

10:29 pm

i don't wa** to think what else you would suggest that i do with a goat. . .

10:51 pm

herinfernallady

what bothers me is being personally attacked for saying JC was not the real deal because everyone of his photos were from Google pages after

10:51 pm

jmcnrick

my favorite thing to do with goat is to eat cabrito

10:51 pm

rururocks

you think so herin?

10:51 pm

rururocks

I don't know what to think anymore

10:51 pm

jmcnrick

well i can understand that herin. . .

10:52 pm

Jillyjill

We all just need to be more careful

10:52 pm

jmcnrick

that is why we should have the first international babble meetup then we will all know who is real and who is not

10:52 pm

Minveryork

I am babbling on an iPad and I don't like it very much. The chat log print is as small as the New York Times newspaper

10:52 pm

jesdraggon

I think everyone needs ice cream! *passes out cups of homemade chocolate yummy*

10:52 pm

Jillyjill

I know what Babble is for me...a great network of support

10:52 pm

jmcnrick

i have made it my personal goal to meet all babblers. . . two more this weekend: sciencegeek and champs

10:53 pm

jmcnrick

10:53 pm

rururocks

sciencegeek is my hero

10:53 pm

10:53 pm

herinfernallady

I think so what Ru?

10:53 pm

Minveryork

I am not real. I am just a figment of my imagination.

10:53 pm

jmcnrick

you can tell me why on your way to the pb ru

10:53 pm

jesdraggon

heh, sure, jmc - through the magic of the internet, it's now vanilla!

10:53 pm

jmcnrick

haha min!

10:54 pm

Nef

I know I don't use a photo of me for an ic**; I'm not very photogenic. I don't like the way some people act or post; so I just stay away from them or close chaog off when they are around

10:54 pm

rururocks

the pictures of JC were fake?

10:54 pm

10:55 pm

Jillyjill

10:55 pm

herinfernallady

photos.

10:56 pm

Nef

when we pay to join, Jilly

10:56 pm

herinfernallady

if you Google Julian Clearly and image search past the first couple of pages they are paratzi photos

10:56 pm

Jillyjill

That makes more sense of my date, I played for quite a while before I paid.

10:57 pm

Minveryork

Well you know it isn't you rururocks because Nef's still here

10:57 pm

Must get to sleep...have a wonderful evening/day everyone :)

10:57 pm

I vaguely remember someone attacking Soodle and either ruru or BR came on and gave them "What For". Is that what you are saying?

10:58 pm

Nef

LOL, very true, Min! (Heck that goes for everyone chatting tonight; I'm not a hateful person.

10:58 pm

herinfernallady

10:59 pm

jmcnrick

10:59 pm

jmcnrick

haha sorry herin i do not recall whether i was neutral or not!

11:00 pm

Jillyjill

Sometimes we all need some perspective...that and knowing when to stay quiet.

11:00 pm

herinfernallady

I sm not bitter just hurt that I was felt to not be welcome here

11:00 pm

jmcnrick

<3 <3

11:00 pm

Nef

11:00 pm

jmcnrick

11:01 pm

11:01 pm

herinfernallady

11:01 pm

As long as you're nice and respectful here who cares about anything else?

11:08 pm

That's how I feel too, Min

BR remember that Wikipedia is the least accurate'

Bugsaw

well i am very nicely going to go to bed. . . if anyone sees liz tell her i said WHOO HOO you new aussie you!

So what if NAncyBoy was a hoax. At least he was not a troll

11:09 pm

That is your opinion, Bugsaw

11:11 pm

Bugsaw

Minveryork I can't believe anybody was so cranky that they put down your greeting. I think it is lovely that you are always so cheerful and welcoming, even when everything in your world is not!

11:11 pm

herinfernallady

that is truenMini

11:11 pm

rururocks

I love minver's greetings

11:11 pm

Minveryork

Goodnight jmcnrick.I will see you tomorrow in the chat log

11:12 pm

Nef

I can't imagine anyone doing that either, Min. We need more uplifting greetings in the world.

11:12 pm

Bugsaw

BR anyone who wants to can go on Wikipedia and add stuff until someone notices and corrects it. We proved it when a kid in Socials class editted stuff about Albert Einstein by citing himself and the teacher.

11:13 pm

o-o

Clary's web site confirms.

11:13 pm

o-o

Believe what you want, Bugsaw

11:14 pm

Bugsaw

confirms he has a girlfriend?

11:14 pm

herinfernallady

what got me sus is the fact personal photos were rag may shots

11:14 pm

Minveryork

At the time when that happened another babbler defended me. I believe that it was mom123 who defended me.

11:14 pm

rururocks

gee.. minver

11:17 pm

gapeach

Hey there, Jillyjill.

11:18 pm

Minveryork

I remember the player but I do not wish to name anybody.

11:19 pm

11:22 pm

rururocks

hi scrambler

11:22 pm

Nef

well, we are all who we say we are; but the truth is that if a person is pretending to be someone they aren't; the mask slips every once in a while...

11:22 pm

scrambler

there may have been more, just wanted to say to all

11:22 pm

rururocks

as long as someone has a handle on it I guess

11:23 pm

jilly, is that a delicious soup I see?

11:31 pm

Nef

airer

11:31 pm

Bugsaw

It is odd how we all think differently about the same things. I can't imagine some of the things that people take offense to and how generous others are. We are all different

11:32 pm

Nef

back and off to PB I go!

As BR said earlier, Believe what you want to. Nothing is worth fighting about

LOL, yes, two Fridays in a row...Curried shrimp soup...was yummy! First time I ever tried a Thai recipe that turned out good.

11:34 pm

scrambler

that sounds delicious! I make a lot of yummy soups and have tried Thai recipes with curry. love them!

11:34 pm

Jillyjill

I do think BR hit it right on!

11:35 pm

Jillyjill

My attempts at Thai have not been that great before, but this one was awesome. Actually found lemon grass here in little old Hamilton MT...LOL

11:36 pm

Jillyjill

I always make soup on Friday's in the winter...hubby off skiing and needs a warming meal to come home to..this soup was hot and spicy

11:37 pm

Jillyjill

OOO, Soundgarden is on Letterman...didn't realize they were still around

11:38 pm

scrambler

sounds great. I grow Lemon grass here on the east coast it thrives and I love it! Grows like a weed. It has been cold here and I always make a soup Sunday nights.

11:39 pm

scrambler

soundgarden

11:40 pm

Jillyjill

Might have to try growing it here, wonder if it

11:41 pm

Jillyjill

It's too cold here to grow it

11:44 pm

scrambler

you could grow it through august. It's hardy like a grass., I will see if it wintered over.

11:45 pm

scrambler

well goodnight all, i am spent. happy babbling

11:45 pm

Jillyjill

Wonder if it can be grown in a pot?

11:46 pm

Nef

good night scrambler. Take care of yourself!

11:46 pm

Jillyjill

Niters scrambler..sweet sleeps

11:47 pm

Nef

Jilly, a lot of our Hmong gardens have lemon grass; they sell it in the farmers markets here all the time. You probably have a better climate than we do

11:49 pm

Jillyjill

Just googled it and it can be grown in a pot. And can be propogated right from the stalks you buy at at the market...

11:52 pm

Nef

I'm interested in your soup recipe now

11:53 pm

Jillyjill

Do you use All Recipes.com?

11:54 pm

Nef

haven't heard of it, Jilly. Is it from there?

11:54 pm

Jillyjill

Yes, I tweaked it a bit...hang on...

11:56 pm

Jillyjill

I added an extra teaspoon of curry powder, a pinch of red pepper flakes and doubled both the mushrooms and shrimp...but here is the link: http://tinyurl.com/azo66lm
