7:37 am

BzznBea

LOL! Bichon, I have to give a presentation Monday night. Today was the day I was going to start.

7:37 am

Mom

:-( Bichon. I need to work on my parents as well. I have a little bit of time though, their appointment isn't until the 26th

7:38 am

Scrabbler

I loaded TurboTax a few wks ago, entered some data, then ignored what remains.

7:38 am

bichon

Top this: I just discovered I hadn't file Mom's state taxes from 2011!

7:39 am

Mom

<---- I filled out the information and dropped it off at the accountant yesterday

7:39 am

Scrabbler

And you didn't get a front door visit from the IRS?

7:39 am

Mom

OH NO!!!! Bichon, what will happen?

7:39 am

Scrabbler

How old is your mother, bichon?

7:39 am

bichon

No, this was CT revenue services. Luckily she was due a refund

7:39 am

7:40 am

BzznBea

I'm sorry, ruby.

7:40 am

Scrabbler

Oh, no, ruby!

7:40 am

BzznBea

Is it a small space?

7:40 am

Mom

(((((Ruby))))) dear Ruby. :-(

7:41 am

rubyfoo

the guy has been coming around for about 6 weeks and no help in sight

7:41 am

7:41 am

rubyfoo

I feel like a farm wife from 1700

7:41 am

Scrabbler

Is there someone else that can help?

7:55 am

Good health matters more than anything.

wvteach, I didn't know you had been sick. I'm sorry to hear that

7:55 am

smores

Hi teach...thought you had left

7:55 am

Anniebrook

teach, It takes time but it will come back. There is coconut water that can help.

7:56 am

MimiCat

Morning, all. I missed out on what your health issues are, teach...can I get a recap?

7:56 am

Scrabbler

Coconut helps with recovery from diarrhea

Hi, Mom!

7:56 am

Hi Scrabbler!

7:57 am

That's OK, smores.

7:58 am

bichon

Are you better now teach?

7:58 am

MimiCat

Sorry to hear that, teach. Dehydration is nothing to take lightly. I once had a seizure from it and was in the hospital for 3 days. No fun. Getting strength back just takes some time---you'll get there.

7:58 am

Scrabbler

Aha, now I understand the earlier clue.

7:59 am

Mom

:-)

7:59 am

wvteach

i have learned too well the effectsd - was home for a week being sick and then in the hopsital for a week - now trying to get back on my feet - coming slowly, but i am not always the most patient person

8:00 am

MimiCat

I know what you mean, teach. There's a prayer I say frequently....God, please grant me patience...NOW!

8:00 am

bichon

teach, the hospital for a week. That's really serious

8:01 am

Anniebrook

teach, The week before I fainted and had a seizuze friends told me I was acting weird. The day I was taken to the hospital two friends showed up wondering what the heck was wrong with me. My sodium level was dangerously low.

8:01 am

Mom

I remember that Annie, so scary

8:02 am

Anniebrook

Mom tracked me down, G-d bless her.

8:02 am

smores

I'm back..had a phone call

8:02 am

bichon

hi smores

8:02 am

Anniebrook

I thought I had the flu.

8:02 am

smores

teach...assuming they had you on anitbiotics, are you eating yogurt?

8:03 am

Angelsong

morning, all. slowly taming this monster grid....139 words left, and three darkened tiles.

8:03 am

Anniebrook

teach, keep track of your electrolytes..when they are back in the normal range, you will fee fine

8:03 am

MimiCat

Good tip, smores. And if you don't like yogurt, you can take acidophilus (sp?) in pill form so you don't battle yeast infections from the antibiotics killing the good bacteria.

8:03 am

smores

Hi Angel :)

8:04 am

Scrabbler

Hi Angel

8:04 am

Mom

:-)

8:04 am

MimiCat

Hi, Angel!

8:04 am

wvteach

no antibiotics - by the time i was in the hospital it was the effects on my body of the dehydration - not any infection - everything was out of whack - soidum levels, blood sugar levels, etc

8:04 am

bichon

How do you keep track of your electrolytes

8:04 am

Anniebrook

Blood tests, I believe

8:04 am

wvteach

just had another blood test yesterday to check on them

8:05 am

MimiCat

It always amazes me that our bodies can be both so delicate and so very strong as well.

8:05 am

smores

Yogurt still is a good idea teach..good amount of protein and easy on your system. That, and as much fluids as you can.

8:06 am

wvteach

yes, i eat yogurt - have always liked it anyways

8:06 am

Scrabbler

I passed halfway, so I must begin the cleaning assault on the house. Enjoy the day, everyone!

Oops--guess I get the PB due to the weather!

8:12 am

smores

lol..hard not to get sent to the pb with this grid

8:12 am

smores

sooo many common words

8:13 am

MimiCat

Good point, smores. I should live so long to finish this one...heck, I never even finish the smaller ones! But I like feeling productive getting more words than usual anyway.

8:13 am

smores

hurshy should like this grid....no p's and both st4 and tr4 are in it :)

8:14 am

smores

don't know if I'll be able to finish this one or not. I have to leave in about a 1/2 hour.

8:14 am

smores

Don't think I'll have enuogh time tonight to do it.

8:15 am

MimiCat

Job search? I've put out over 40 applications/resumes in the past 2 weeks. Hitting agencies next week for temp work til something permanent comes along. So tiring and daunting but I've on every job site there is.

Ooooh---there's my thunder!

8:16 am

smores

Helping out at my church today, I usually volunteer 1 day a week

8:17 am

smores

Still doing the job search thing though

8:17 am

MimiCat

I'm thinking about finding a church I like mostly for the fellowship.

8:18 am

smores

Yes, the fellowship is wonderful

8:19 am

MimiCat

I've been hesitant because I don't want to be hypocritical since I don't actually like religion but I think I can find a balance (?)

8:20 am

starryjess

I know a church you'd probably like around here, so maybe there's one like that around you

8:20 am

MimiCat

Is it somewhat like a Unitarian, jess?

8:20 am

starryjess

hard to describe what I mean

8:21 am

alibabas

mimicat what state are you in?

8:21 am

MimiCat

Arizona - Phoenix area.

8:21 am

starryjess

I don't know, but they don't tell you you have to believe all these little details, or else

8:22 am

alibabas

oh...ok...if you were in Michigan I'd invite you to my church.

8:22 am

MimiCat

That's what I'd like, jess. I can't buy into actual doctrine in most cases.

8:22 am

starryjess

I'm in Michigan, what part are you in?

8:22 am

MimiCat

Ali, I used to live in Milford and in Highland in Michigan...small world.

8:22 am

alibabas

Ah...I'm in GR.

8:23 am

starryjess

really? .... I live in the area...but I live in the little town of Greenville right now

8:23 am

MimiCat

Really small, actually...the man I almost married before meeting my ex lives in Ann Arbor---and he was originally from Boston.

8:24 am

starryjess

may I ask what church you are talking about?

8:24 am

alibabas

Well, not to start a big fight but I find that doctrine is the reason my faith is strong. Because I believe things like God is sovereign the bad things in my life are planned as well as the good things. Doctrine can be a life saver! Go Bue!

8:24 am

alibabas

Hi Starry! Go Blue!

8:26 am

MimiCat

I also believe that, but I don't accept many of the traditional "truths" that many churches promote. And I think tolerance is key, so I'm good with whatever someone else believes as long as they aren't hurting anyone and it works for them.

8:26 am

wvteach

go angel go

8:27 am

alibabas

What 'traditional' truths don't you accept? Feel free not to answer if this is too deep.

8:27 am

8:28 am

8:28 am

alibabas

Oh...noooooooooo! A STATE fan! Yikes...and let you join Babble? :)

8:28 am

MimiCat

Yeah...I'd better not. We'd probably get into it, ali. Actually, most of my belief system is more Far Eastern in nature...Buddhism and the like.

8:28 am

alibabas

You think I'll start a bigger fight about football or religion?

I had surgery three weeks ago and had some major complications. numb from the chest down and severe neck pain. neuro thinks i had a spinal stroke during surgery. originally we hoped it was just swelling and bruising from surgery, but now they are pretty sure it is a spinal injury. not much fun when it was just supposed to be a minor event to revise my spinal cord stimulator. the kicker is that the stimulator isn't even working now.... good times

9:28 am

periwinkle

I am so sorry to hear that eieios.

9:28 am

There was a boycott on Netflix by the deaf community. that has died down to the end of retail dvd stores and with netflix's promise to CC 100% within the end of 2014 (agreed in court) so now deaf people using Netflix. no other choice.

11:17 am

cosdem you may already use them but crackle is a nice alternative when waiting for new shows to pop up on netflix and they have cc in most cases

helensgirlkid

Mmm - been a long time since I had corn nuts. And please don't remind me of Bit-O-Honey - can't get them in Canada.

11:23 am

cybernan

11:24 am

11:24 am

Dorens

i can't believe i started this monster today

11:24 am

cosdem

No. Getting it early. Its on sale. Freezing it til St Pats

11:24 am

MollyL

Bit O'Honey = lost fillings

11:24 am

bichon

Why is corned beef eatern on St. Pat's day. It's not a tradition from Ireland

11:24 am

BzznBea

an8 is the long nosed creature

11:24 am

bichon

an 8 is a bug consumer

11:25 am

MollyL

an8...bug consumer

11:25 am

crossy does not like corn nuts but i see those amazing potato pancakes are in the grid today:)

11:25 am

hurshy

ahhh thinking "before" was not helping then! thanks

11:25 am

MollyL

Corned beef and cabbage is an Americanization of Irish cooking. What the poor Irish cooked when they first came here.

11:26 am

cosdem

Ahh never knew that. Thats interesting.

11:26 am

helensgirlkid

You have to suck each segment for a while before you try to chew, Molly - but the taste is wonderful!

11:26 am

crosshair

i like the combo of those big farmer sausages and cabbage

11:26 am

bichon

Lucky them. Yummy

11:26 am

cosdem

Molly do you happen to have a good slow cooker recipe for that?

11:27 am

MollyL

You don't need a recipe. You just throw the corned beef and spice packet in the slow cooker and cook until fork tender. I then shred mine and fry it up with potatoes, cabbage, carrots, onions and corn.

11:27 am

bichon

I just add water and the seasonings that come with it and cook til fork tender

11:27 am

BzznBea

Nasty bowels out of the way! 263 consonants left.

11:28 am

Thats what I do. Thanks. Just making sure.

I might have to fix some corned beef.

11:29 am

11:35 am

MollyL

People need to get a grip. You can eat in a healthy way without going off the deep end. I read something the other day about someone making hot chocolate with carrot juice. How gross is that?

11:35 am

crosshair

props to Mr clemons on that one

11:36 am

cosdem

11:36 am

Hi, Wyrd

11:38 am

I know, if you don't think hot chocolate is good for you, then why not just not drink it?

11:38 am

cosdem

54 degrees now.. ill go run errands in a hour when the temp goes up another 10

11:38 am

MollyL

Oh there I go, expressing an opinion again. Probably offended some carrot juice drinker.

11:39 am

11:39 am

helensgirlkid

Keep the opiniions coming - I enjoy them.

11:42 am

crosshair

look at it this way,wyrd,my doctor told me once that each slice of bacon will take 6 minutes off of my life and i said to him"well in that case i should of died in 1786"

11:42 am

MollyL

Good quote...sorry I don't have the author's name...
It's hard for people to understand that you can not agree with them
â€” and not be against them.
That you could be for something without being against something else.

11:42 am

cosdem

If I dont like it. Shut up and hide the chog is my personal rule

very interesting.Nelson GA is voting on a proposed law which will have every head of every household to learn how to use and own a firearm.the exemptions of course will be those with mental issues,children,criminal and those who have religious issues with gun ownership. the town has a pop of 1.300

12:11 pm

it will be the second town in GA to entertain such a law,ruby

12:12 pm

uusue2

I wouldn't mind everyone being trained in gun safety but I don't see how they can require people to buy things

12:13 pm

crosshair

twice the distance to the moon,so not too close

12:15 pm

crosshair

well,i guess the votes will determine the outcome.if you really object,but a cheap handgun and remove the firing pin and fill the barrel with concrete and place it on the mantle

12:15 pm

crosshair

saw nothing in the proposed law that said the firearm had to be maintained in working order

12:16 pm

uusue2

Frank has an antique rifle so we would probably be ok :-)

9:37 pm

jmcnrick

haha thanks melon but there is one before that

9:37 pm

jmcnrick

wtg dan2

9:37 pm

invictus

se 6/21 is a trigonometry term

9:37 pm

melonheadjujube

unless of course you are talkin' trig.

9:37 pm

jmcnrick

did they name the new little 2bit?

9:38 pm

wht

se + the lab in Switzerland with the haldron collider.

9:38 pm

there is one after than one invictus but thank you

9:38 pm

melonheadjujube

since there are miscreants, why can't there be creants, hih?

9:38 pm

melonheadjujube

huh?

9:39 pm

jmcnrick

right i know what that is wht! hahahaha i know the onein waxihatchie

9:39 pm

dan2bit

jmc not yet

9:39 pm

jmcnrick

i don't see waxihatchie in the grid wht

9:40 pm

dan2bit

though I think they are motivated to do so before they leave hospital - bureaucracy makes it much harder to do once they go home

9:40 pm

wht

There is a lab in Switzerland, jmc. Dan Brown used it in one of his books.

9:41 pm

jmcnrick

hmmm you are going to make me google it then. . . haha okay

9:41 pm

wht

I believe that they also made the first web browser.

9:42 pm

jmcnrick

you have to apply for a SSN right away these days. . . .I got mine when i was 8 because my daddy sent off for one for my second sister and he figured he might as well do all of us

9:43 pm

jmcnrick

okay welki says i should have known it from big bang theory

9:43 pm

MollyL

I know about that place in Switzerland from Dan Brown books. Our Sue used to work there.

9:43 pm

jmcnrick

uu did cool

9:44 pm

jmcnrick

i don't even know who he is. . .what did he write

9:46 pm

wht

I think Angel's and Demons was the one with the lab in it. He writes suspense thrillers. They seem to always have some secret conspiracy and sometimes it involves the Catholic church.

9:47 pm

dan2bit

it's where the large hadron collider is

9:47 pm

uusue2

*pops in* Angels and Demons, and he got the science all wrong

9:47 pm

Jillyjill

...oh dear...my poor little monkeys...

9:47 pm

uusue2

and yes, I did work there for a while

9:48 pm

MollyL

Wht, this comment made me laugh about parents in Boston who kept their kids home when the schools were open during a major snow storm.
The district said students whose parents kept them home Friday would be considered "constructively present" and their absences would be excused.

9:48 pm

jmcnrick

oh i heard of that book. . .never read it though. . . didn't he write some other well known book?

9:48 pm

wht

Well, if he got the science right, his plot would probably fall apart. I had trouble with the guy using his jacket as a parachute jumping out of helicopter.

9:49 pm

jmcnrick

*sends jilly banana smoothies for monkies*

9:49 pm

MollyL

Constructively present, what a phrase.

9:49 pm

uusue2

The DaVinci Code, jmc

9:50 pm

jmcnrick

haha i love myth busters. . . i am surprised they haven't tested that one. . .

9:50 pm

jmcnrick

thats right i watch the davinci code it was dumb. . . .

9:50 pm

uusue2

they'd need to use buster...

9:50 pm

wht

I saw that on the news tonight Molly. I think maybe Enable is branching out into a new jargon creation business.

9:50 pm

jmcnrick

they tested a lot of james bond including having a conversation while freefalling. . . doesn't work!

9:51 pm

uusue2

I suppose being constructively present is better than being destructively present...

9:51 pm

jmcnrick

well if you are using constructively to mean for all intents and purposes it works. . .

9:52 pm

wht

But it apparently constructively present means being at home because your parents did not think it was safe to send you to school in a snowstorm.

9:52 pm

MollyL

I'm guessing most readers of Dan Brown's fiction didn't notice the incorrect science. : D

9:53 pm

MollyL

Oh, the smart ass remarks I could have made with "constructively present" when I was explaining why I skipped school.

9:53 pm

wht

ruru, did you ever find the first sl7,28. I need a clue please.

9:53 pm

jmcnrick

no to the sharp lawyers mind it means that they are counting them present rather than loose all the state money they get for students who are present. . .

9:54 pm

wht

I think Dan Brown was constructively present during science class.

9:54 pm

jmcnrick

haha i am such a goody two-shoes the only time i skipped (before college) was on senior skip day

9:54 pm

ChampFit

wht...is it the drinking toast?

9:54 pm
