2:11 am

dee, have found some great shoes for FM. called wolverines over here. th4 are a leather upper type of sneaker, lovely thick squishy sole, and a sort of pad in the heel which absorbs the force of impact when we walk. i'm actually making through my 9 hour shift without muscle spasms.
2:12 am
VolleymomDee
Wow! How did you find them?
2:12 am
grannyrose
you'll never guess!!! i went to a camping/hiking store.
2:13 am
VolleymomDee
Fabulous!
2:14 am
grannyrose
i can't wear a lace-up...no room for when my feet swell, these are cut low in the upper and have a velcro strap. easy on/off
2:15 am
VolleymomDee
Plus the velcro would help keep the shoe in place for the pad in the heel..
2:15 am
VolleymomDee
Wonder if they are available over here.
2:15 am
VolleymomDee
brb googling them
2:16 am
grannyrose
yup, plus i splashed out and bought myself 2 pairs of compression stockings. lol. th4 take me almost 15 minutes to put on...but well worth the effort.
2:17 am
grannyrose
the on4 i bought look like a sort of court shoe...only the leather is matt, not shiny
2:18 am
VolleymomDee
I just found them at zappos.com... I will definitely look at them - I need a few new pairs of shoes
2:19 am
grannyrose
dee, th4 are so comfortable. i have very broad feet, especially across the toes. this style suits my foot so well
2:20 am
VolleymomDee
I hate buying shoes - very skinny heel and bouts of plantar fasciaitis
2:20 am
VolleymomDee
spelled that incorrectly
2:21 am
grannyrose
one of my co-workers has that...she tried on my shoes....she said th4 were the best she has ever tried, and is going out to buy some for herself.
2:21 am
VolleymomDee
so good to know
2:22 am
VolleymomDee
fireworks
2:22 am
grannyrose
hope th4 suit you, hun. there's nothing like a really good pair of comfy shoes.

WTG DEE!!!!

VolleymomDee

2:23 am
VolleymomDee
How do the sizes run?
2:24 am
VolleymomDee
Are they true, or do you have to get a size larger?
2:24 am
grannyrose
darn, can't remeber....and i threw the box into the re-cycling.
2:24 am
VolleymomDee
no problem
2:25 am
grannyrose
no, dee, i didn't have to go larger....
2:25 am

3:47 am
grannyrose
just read your profile....hate to break it to you, hun....hmmmm.....welcome to my world. it seems so difficult to get going in the mornings nowadays. i think the age factor is responsible. lol

ditto, puglet. sometimes it helps to vent also. i heartily approve of prayer...i have lined up my bestest friend and another who seems to 'see' what my Lord wants.
4:14 am

4:15 am
grannyrose

4:16 am

puglet, my absolutely favourite rose is a cecil brunner. it is a tiny pale pink tea-rose with an absolutely heavenly scent.
4:52 am
puglet
never heard of that--sounds heavenly though--I planted a rose three years ago and it has the largest red flower with the best smell!
4:53 am
puglet
I love flowers and trees. My favorites are irises and lilac and roses
4:56 am
grannyrose
puglet, is it a neil armstrong? that is a dark red rose with the most heavenly scent.
4:58 am
puglet
Im not sure---I bought it on a clearence sale and it didnt have a tag. I wasent sure it would even live but it did and its got a smell like no other
5:00 am
grannyrose
hmmmm, maybe a neil armstrong. that rose is particularly heavily scented.
5:03 am

puglet, also look out for golden jubilee. bred to coincide with queen elizabeth's golden jubilee. it is a primrose yellow rose with a very light scent
5:03 am
puglet
it could be--I got several roses and its way sweeter smelling then the others
5:04 am
puglet
Okay I will--is it a climbing rose
5:05 am
grannyrose
golden jubilee is a bush, but could be trained/pruned into a standard
5:06 am
grannyrose
cecil brunner is a climber....can become quite a large tree!!!!
5:07 am
puglet
do you think I could find one here
5:08 am
grannyrose
th4 there is the neo-cleopatra...red and yellow rose, with a scent which is capable of driving you crazy....you just want to bury your face in it...
5:08 am
grannyrose
puglet, try googling it...it is quite a well-known rose
5:09 am
puglet
mmmmmmmmmmm sounds delightful
5:09 am
puglet
okay I will
5:09 am
grannyrose

5:10 am
puglet
lol--never would had guess
5:11 am
puglet

5:11 am
grannyrose
i think it started with my grandmother. she used a talc called 'roses,roses'
5:13 am
puglet

5:14 am
puglet

And you yourself?
6:45 am
Lizlin
Good thanks - enjoying peace and quiet after guests. Lovely to have them but it's good to have the house back to ourselves again.
6:46 am
sprite
:) In Dutch we have a rhyme... 'Gasten en vis blijven 3 dagen fris' = Guests and fish stay fresh for 3 days.
6:47 am

I like that!

7:02 am

Hi scrabbs :)
7:02 am
Scrabbler
We have a sunny spring day here. When I went outside to fetch my newspaper I listened to and watched the birds for several minutes.
7:03 am
bichon
Hi Scrabs. Was at the Vet with my new foster and someone brought in a bunny
7:03 am
sprite
how lovely, Scrabs. Nothing much here still... overcast and cold
7:03 am
Scrabbler
A new foster? A bunny! *squeal*
7:03 am
Lizlin
So pleased that Spring seems to be arriving in America and England - soon in Holland, I hope.
7:03 am
Scrabbler
I work the evening session today so I will spend the day outside.
7:04 am
bichon
Ben is my new foster. The bunny was in a cute little carrier
7:04 am
bichon
It's overcast and cold here too sprite
7:04 am
Scrabbler
Hug Ben for me! I have carriers for my bunnies too, for when I go to the vet's office.
7:04 am
Lizlin
I read this am that you had a new foster called Ben - that's lovely!
7:05 am
Lizlin
In good condition?
7:05 am
sprite
we definitely need better weather pronto
7:05 am
sprite
happy Ben that he gets to live with you!
7:06 am
Lizlin
Well said, Sprite :)
7:07 am
bichon
He'll only be here til the end of May, if he doesn't get a forever home before that
7:07 am
bichon
Ben was an owner surrender and had been neglected.
7:07 am
Scrabbler
Is he a Bichon Friese?
7:08 am
Lizlin
Poor Ben - lucky dog spending time with you. Lots of love there, I imagine :)
7:08 am
bichon
He is a Bichon Frise. Came from a breeder. But, I think he looks less like a Bichon than my two
7:09 am
bichon
Well, Ben is trying to sort it out with my two Bichons, Marco and Polo. All trying the dominance route.
7:09 am
Scrabbler
I wish more owners would voluntarily surrender rather than neglect or abuse their pets.
7:09 am
Scrabbler
Silly dogs.
7:09 am
Lizlin
Are Marco and Polo permanent friends?
7:09 am
bichon
The owner had fallen on hard times, like lots of people now. At least she didn't just turn him out on the streets
7:10 am
bichon
Marco an Polo were strays until we adopted them, over two years ago
7:10 am
Lizlin
Again, lucky dogs :)
7:10 am
bichon
Ben needs serious dental work. His teeth are in bad shape
7:12 am
sprite
that robot ending keeps calling me
7:12 am
Lizlin
And have you answered ...?
7:13 am
Lizlin
I haven't used that ending yet - mind you, still have 100 words to find!
7:13 am
sprite
yeah. So far I am not reaching it though
7:13 am
Scrabbler
I am shocked that this grid contains 290 words, with such crowding of consonants.
7:14 am
Lizlin
I've found it pretty slow going so far and was pleased to have lickety and use it once I'd got over half way!
7:14 am
sprite
yeah, doesn't look like this size. But first 200 are easy.
7:15 am
Lizlin
Not for me!
7:15 am
Scrabbler
I am slowing down after finding 95
7:15 am
sprite
lol... sorry.
7:16 am
Lizlin
We all react to different grids in different ways. I've enjoyed the last few - so I don't mind a bit of a struggle now!
7:16 am
sprite
yeah, I like them all.
7:17 am
Scrabbler
I just woke up an hour ago and am sipping coffee.
7:17 am
sprite
might treat myself to a cup of coffee myself after this grid.
7:18 am
Lizlin
No coffee here at 10.17 pm!
7:19 am
sprite
lol no indeed
7:22 am

Good Afternoon, Everyone. This is the first time I've been here today and I don't think I'll play this grid; much too large when I have a full day of stuff to do. (How is it? Easy or hard?)
1:36 pm
periwinkle
it seems doable, Nef. but I have not been here long
1:37 pm
MollyL
I don't think any of them are easy, Nef. If they were, there would be no challenge in completing them.
1:37 pm

I only have the rh8 and none of the 7's.

Nef
I was just looking for words to see if I should start or not and I can't see how they can get 7 words from that corner C and then 42 words from that bottom corner S? Yikes!

Nef
LOL, Molly. I usually check to see if it looks doable or not; this one looks tough for being so big

and they were on sale and i can make a batch easily. the potatoes are already made and i have a couple of bags of carrots. no rush, but i try to cook every two weeks but missed a while
5:52 pm
smores
Very thoughtful of you TO, do you cook of shut-ins often?
5:52 pm
72 Temple Owl
if i were cooking for a family i would make trays from each suitable meal and gather them up
5:52 pm
MollyL
And there is always good old barbecue sauce.
: )
5:52 pm
72 Temple Owl
that is how i used to do it and how the program is designed.
5:53 pm
72 Temple Owl
yes, molly, that was hte first choice. but i have so many recipes i want to try. poor guinea pigs :)
5:53 pm
72 Temple Owl
chicken adobo comes to mind, a slow cooker meal
5:53 pm
smores
Do you have to worry about diet restrictions?
5:54 pm
MollyL
Do you have to have your kitchen approved for that?
5:54 pm
72 Temple Owl
no added salt is an option. i used to do that, easy with chicken. no molly, a grass roots program. but the warehouse has a commercial kitchen where groups can come and cook up lots at once.
5:56 pm
MollyL
Around here you can't even cook for daycare kids in your home unless your kitchen is approved.

Sounds wonderful...I may look and see if there is anything in my area.
5:59 pm
72 Temple Owl
my food goes immediately into the trays and when forzen then overed with foil and packed and i get them to the commercial freezer asap.
6:00 pm
72 Temple Owl
it all started with one person. the power of one...and the rqst was to set aside portions of your own meals that are suitable.
6:01 pm
MollyL
I would love to have some of those three sectioned foil pans. What a great way to bring someone dinner.
6:06 pm
72 Temple Owl
