na5,6, if that helps

12:43 am

VolleymomDee

VolleymomDee

wtg mcl and gn

12:49 am

melonheadjujube

erda, the pearly stuff was the other N. I may have stated it confusinglyâ€”not the second N in the row, a better way to put it would be the leftmost N. "N"yway, jilli gave me the clue I need, tho I often forget that said word is not a proper noun.

12:49 am

melonheadjujube

oh, tx, jilli

12:50 am

melonheadjujube

wait the xmas no4 word isn;t working for me I got not in dictionary.

12:50 am

jillibus

dee gave that no4 clue first ;-)

12:51 am

melonheadjujube

or I can't tupe. I'm fine. Nevermind me.

12:51 am

VolleymomDee

try again... worked for me :)

12:51 am

12:52 am

melonheadjujube

are all the Q words familiar? I have fivesomes and stuff you make into jelly, a remark, and a pound so far.

12:53 am

melonheadjujube

Lots of biggies this grid, my word average is 5.02 so far.

12:53 am

VolleymomDee

qu 8

12:53 am

melonheadjujube

is the qu8 familiar?

12:53 am

jillibus

chop the end off the jelly fruit

12:53 am

VolleymomDee

my q's are mostly recognizable :)

12:54 am

melonheadjujube

mostly...

12:55 am

VolleymomDee

had to use morewords to find the qu 8/55 1st one (there are 2 qu 8's)

12:55 am

melonheadjujube

I have the fruit and its plural, and a Dion, can't for the life of me figure out the three words that would fit in between per Lickety.

12:56 am

melonheadjujube

I tried quintacle, but apparently I made that one up!

12:56 am

VolleymomDee

qu 8/55 same 1st 4 letters + abbrev for that is; + abbrev for Louisiana

12:58 am

VolleymomDee

sounds like a good word to me

12:58 am

Onpaki

po 9

12:59 am

melonheadjujube

Ah, the horse betting word with an L replacing an E. The other 8 is mathematical. My phantom was quintile, which came close. TX VMD!

12:59 am

melonheadjujube

I like quintacle, it ought to be a word!

12:59 am

VolleymomDee

yqw

1:00 am

melonheadjujube

1:02 am

melonheadjujube

I've been making bowls based on magnolia blossoms, and they are lovely. I ought to post a photo.

1:16 am

melonheadjujube

phantom: delicate

1:18 am

VolleymomDee

REALLY BEAUTIFUL, mel. Thanks so much for sharing!

1:19 am

melonheadjujube

Thank you for looking. I will probably donate these to the organization where my son gets services, which is named, as it happens, is the Magnolia Clubhouse. They have a resale shop and art gallery. It would be fitting.

1:20 am

VolleymomDee

Would be lovely!

1:22 am

melonheadjujube

At 93 words so far, I think I'll try for beddy-bye again when I hit 100.

1:23 am

VolleymomDee

good luck :)

1:23 am

melonheadjujube

sleep or words? (;

1:24 am

VolleymomDee

whichever you choose LOL

1:24 am

melonheadjujube

I just hope sleep chooses me.

1:24 am

VolleymomDee

it has eluded me lately...

1:25 am

melonheadjujube

we're close in age, I think it's a stage we're going through.

1:26 am

VolleymomDee

definitely could be... age, hormones, then toss in fibromyalgia and RA for me...

1:26 am

melonheadjujube

My problem, is I love the quiet of nighttime. otoh, school is out, otooh, I'd like to start my days earlier this summer. Oh, well...

1:27 am

VolleymomDee

I, too, love the quiet...I totally understand.

1:27 am

melonheadjujube

Oh, I'm a fibro gal, too. OA and some neuropathic pain, too.

1:27 am

VolleymomDee

We definitely are sharing similar phases, then.

1:28 am

melonheadjujube

One summer I slept in two 4-hour shifts. I realized I loved the late night and the morning, hated midday, and slept 2-6 am and 2-6 pm. It was weirdly wonderful.

1:28 am

melonheadjujube

Sometimes I don't want to believe I have fibro. I have good and bad days, good and bad wekks, good and bad months.

1:29 am

VolleymomDee

Oddly enough, I can appreciate that!

1:29 am

melonheadjujube

Was to have a total hip replacement, happily got better enough to cancel, or at least postpone.

1:29 am

VolleymomDee

Exactly, Mel.

1:30 am

VolleymomDee

Would be wonderful to avoid the surgery. A friend of ours had one last summer, and he did fantastically well.

1:30 am

melonheadjujube

I bet you can appreciate. Good to know somebody understands!

1:30 am

VolleymomDee

Very nice to commiserate with someone who "gets" it.

1:30 am

melonheadjujube

It would have been awful to do it this summer. My son was hospitalized recently, followed by outpatient treatment. Would not do to have two high-maintenance situations at once.

1:31 am

VolleymomDee

Definitely good you avoided one of those situations :)

1:32 am

melonheadjujube

My hip had bothered me for months and I do have bone spurs. Still, it improved with the warm weather, both pain and range of motion. I can throw my leg over my bike which I had not been able to do for the past year. Still, I have a feeling TR is in my future.

1:33 am

melonheadjujube

Ah, 100 words. Word 100 was trigonometrical. Nice chatting with you. I'm going to hit the hay and hope it hits back! XXXOO

1:33 am

VolleymomDee

You just never know... hubby was supposed to have knee replaced a year ago... and a shot he has has handled the pain for a whole year.

1:33 am

VolleymomDee

Sleep well!! (((mel))))

3:01 am

sprite

Be nice to yourself, ok? Take it easy when you are low in energy.

3:01 am

Dippnall

3:01 am

3:04 am

gapeach

A long time friend is driving up from Florida tomorrow and, hopefully the hurricane has blown up the east coast....she lives on the

3:06 am

gapeach

Atlantic side and would be driving through it. She has about a ten hour drive. The weather has just been so weird. But we can just stay inside and gab about old times. LOL

3:06 am

sprite

I wish her a safe and smooth journey

3:07 am

gapeach

Thanks, dear.

3:14 am

sprite

lol, a part of the netherlands is in the grid today: Ameland. It is one of our islands in the Wadden. Not valid, of course.

3:15 am

gapeach

Kind of "cool" tho.

3:15 am

sprite

it is :)

3:17 am

gapeach

Well, m' dears, I think I'd better try to get some sleep....still have 80 words left....but I like it better than those really small grids. Blessings.

3:18 am

sprite

I hope you sleep well, peach, and easily.

3:19 am

3:21 am

sprite

and how are you today, rose?

3:21 am

grannyrose

nice....almost a pj day...

3:22 am

sprite

*smug* I AM dressed!

3:22 am

grannyrose

doing well, thanx. wore the splint all day, it is so much better with it. a hassle but the good outweighs the bad.

3:22 am

sprite

have to shop later, must pick up meds and get the groceries. But that is for later. First, babble and my babble friends!

3:22 am

grannyrose

*flips a spoonful of icecream at sprite*

3:23 am

sprite

wtg rose. That is what they are there for. You use it until you don't need it anymore. Especially at work!

3:23 am

puglet

GOOD MORNING --Rose and Sprite and all others too

3:23 am

sprite

*caught it*

3:23 am

sprite

hiya puglet :)

3:23 am

grannyrose

hey up puglet

3:23 am

grannyrose

yes, dear, but what with?

3:23 am

sprite

Gradyn off to his mother? Any practical solutions found for him?

3:24 am

sprite

the eye, rose, the eye... but wiping it off and eating it anyway...

3:24 am

puglet

as of now no

3:24 am

grannyrose

rofl, oh for goodness sake. i was aiming for the feet....

3:24 am

puglet

His father is going to get him over the week ends now due to the way she is

3:25 am

sprite

I don't blame ya, rose. My feet are small. The rest of me is big. Easy to miss.

3:25 am

sprite

oh good, puglet! That is much better, shorter periods without contact for Gradyn.

3:26 am

puglet

we dont think she will take him now due to her not working (which we hope)

3:26 am

sprite

wouldn't that be the best of all solutions! *keeping fingers crossed*

3:26 am

puglet

so how are you doing Rose and Sprite

3:26 am

grannyrose

i think i'm outside the loop here. can someone please explain?

3:26 am

puglet

yes it sure would!

3:27 am

sprite

I am good, puglet. Taking today off from therapy and enjoying a slow day at home to get back some energy.

3:28 am

grannyrose

pugs have gone back to wearing the splint when i am expected to walk around a lot. a hassle putting the brute on, but much more comfortanle with it on, provided the blessed thing doesn't keep going south. lol

3:28 am

puglet

My great nephew(hes like my grandchild) dosent want to go to his mother over the summer that the courts has demanded

3:28 am

sprite

puglet's grandson has to spend a month at his mother's, but his mother makes him totally miserable and he hates to go.

3:28 am

grannyrose

how old is gradyn?

3:29 am

puglet

His mother(my neice) is not a very good mother I hate to say--hes 7

3:30 am

grannyrose

hmmm, over here when a child reaches the age of 6, they are allowed to make up their own minds as to whether they want to see an estranged parent.

3:30 am

puglet

at one time we were very close and I dont know what happen to her. I took care of her during her time carring Gradyn and then took care of him so she could return to school(she was 16

3:31 am

sprite

much better, rose. This is heartrending.

3:31 am

grannyrose

pugs, does your sister support you in this?

3:31 am

puglet

well its 12 here

3:31 am

dizgrannie

sorry grannyrose, but it is now 14 here in OZ

3:31 am

sprite

12 here as well

3:32 am

dizgrannie

we have had the probs with my g/dtr for a few years now

3:32 am

grannyrose

really, diz? that's disgraceful. under that age the kids can be so easily hurt emotionally and psychologically.

3:32 am

dizgrannie

but her father hasn't bothered for 5 yrs.

3:33 am

sprite

a mother who isolates a child and lets it sleep in bed with her and her lover should not be allowed to have the child at home.

3:33 am

puglet

Rose (sob) I had to pick what was best for Gradyn during a court battle over where Gradyn should love-I had to choose his father and now my sister or neice wont have anything to do with me.But Iam not sorry of what I had to do

3:33 am

puglet

(live not love) sorry

3:34 am

dizgrannie

as our nearly 13 yr old tells one and all....my father doesn't care, but I have a g/dad who I claim to be my dad

3:34 am

sprite

you stood up for Gradyn, puglet. Someone had to. Never be sorry for that. But it must have hurt to do so.

3:34 am

sprite

awwww dizgrannie... she rocks

3:34 am

grannyrose

maybe because i had an intervention order out against my first husband. yeah, diz, my kids saw my dad as their re4 dad.

3:35 am

dizgrannie

ty Sprite

3:36 am

grannyrose

pugs, i know it has been difficult for you, a rift in the family always is a bad thing. but keeping gradyn where he can go and mature at his own pace is always paramount.

3:36 am

puglet

Yes it does hurt for we were all close---I kind of understand my sister standing up for her daughter but that little boy suffered alot being with his mother and her lifestyle she chose

3:36 am

grannyrose

*grow*

3:36 am

dizgrannie

Puglet...just be there for Gradyn....ferk all else. x0oxo

if his mother and grandmother don't put his wellbeing first, he is blessed to have you who does

3:37 am

puglet

thank you all so much for the support--Gradyn is doing so well in school and is now so much happier Iam not sorry for the choice I made on his behalf

3:38 am

sprite

*hugs puglet*

3:38 am

puglet

thank you and hugs back to you all too

3:40 am

grannyrose

xoxoxox, pugs. and some for gradyn too. xoxox

3:40 am

puglet

thank you Rose and back at you on the hugs too

3:42 am

puglet

Ive got 5 sisters--Iam the oldest and the grandmother to Gradyn is the youngest sister and because of what I did she is taking it out on all the other sisters too.

3:43 am

sprite

that just shows that deep down she knows she is to blame, puglet. Otherwise she wouldn't have to keep everyone away.

3:43 am

puglet

its been over 2 years now and it bothers me the gap that has been put on our famly and Im not sure if I should go to her and try to talk to her or just let it go

3:44 am

puglet

she and her daughter are no longer speaking because of her daughters life

3:44 am

sprite

it does not sound like she is ready to hear you, puglet... I may be wrong of course.

3:44 am

grannyrose

pugs, by all means make the attempt. or you will be forever saynig to yourself, what if, or i wish i had.

3:45 am

sprite

oh wait, talk to your sister? Yeah, that would be good.

3:45 am

grannyrose

at least if you try you know that you have done all you can.

3:46 am

puglet

Iam just not sure of what to say ---For Iam not sorry going to court for Gradyn

3:47 am

sprite

perhaps something like: I had to stand up for gradyn. It didn't mean I love you any less and I still love you and I miss you.

3:48 am

grannyrose

try saying something along the lines that you understand how torn she must feel over all the situation. then ask her what she would like to see happen, to make it possible for gradyn to be safe.

3:49 am

puglet

Yes Sprite that does sound good. And good advice from you too Rose

3:49 am

grannyrose

i think validating how your sister feels would be a good start. of course she may well throw it right back at you. in that case, just walk away.

3:49 am

puglet

I have sent her a card on her Birthdays the last 2 years but nothing back

3:49 am

sprite

validating her feelings will certainly help.

3:51 am

grannyrose

oh, pugs, my heart goes out to you. i have a similar situation with my eldest son. he decided nearly 6 years ago that i was a persona non grata. have heard from him in all that time.

3:51 am

puglet

she herself made a huge mistake and it was like a rock thrown into a pond(the ripples spread out onto her whole family)

3:51 am

grannyrose

*haven't* grrrr

3:52 am

puglet

ahhh Iam sorry Rose!

3:52 am

sprite

that must hurt so much :(

3:53 am

grannyrose

ah, well, what can you do? i have tried phoning, emailing, cards and letters to no avail. i still have 2 beautiful sons who do the right thing by me.

3:53 am

ivesy3

its amazing coming on here and seeing so many people with similiar probs. my ex doesnt have anything to do with our son becuz he is an addict.i personally would like to shoot him

3:53 am

dizgrannie

Geez, guys/gals...I thought I was the only one who's dtr disowned them...my dtr has bi polar and blames me for her affliction

3:54 am

ivesy3

my ex, not my son lol

3:54 am

sprite

nothing you can do. Your son will have his reasons and in his head it will probably be ok. But his heart will miss you anyway.

3:54 am

grannyrose

aww diz....{{hugs}} hun

3:54 am

sprite

*hugs ivesy and dizgrannie*

3:54 am

grannyrose

ives, i knew what you meant. {{hugs}} for ives too

3:55 am

sprite

that is awful, dizgrannie. As far as I know, she must have been born with the predisposition for bipolar to get it.

3:55 am

grannyrose

HEY, GROUP HUG!!!! {{ HUG }}

3:55 am

sprite

{{{{{group}}}}}

3:56 am

puglet

guess we are all with pains due to families--hugs to each of you--this is a good place for healing--

3:56 am

grannyrose

you are right sprite. so unfair for the child to blame the parents for what is wrong with them...

3:56 am

ivesy3

jason tried a few times to talk to him, but the ex just threw out the old this is what you have to do and you should go to church... addicts dont listen to those things.. crap they dont listen to anything

3:57 am

sprite

well, sometimes it is correct, rose... I have ptsd and my parents certainly are to blame. My sister ended up with borderline. A very unsafe environment in our childhood does attribute to developing some disorders.

3:57 am

ivesy3

actually saw exes profile on line. states he has one son... the one he adopted... i never told jason that.

3:57 am

puglet

when I dont know what else to do for them or myself on these matters I just pray

3:57 am

sprite

ivesy, that is so sad :(

3:58 am

ivesy3

i kind of gave up on that puglet.. sorry to say. too many things have shaken my faith. am struggling with it now

3:58 am

sprite

praying is a miraculous activity for sure. I hold gradyn in my prayers as well, puglet, since you told us.

3:58 am

puglet

ahhh that is sad for you and him

3:58 am

grannyrose

it's hard ives. dealing with an addictive personality. i am one, and current hubby has supported me on my journey. no it wasn't drugs, but cigarettes, pain meds and alcohol. out the other side now, and truely grateful for his support. i love him so much, and not a day goes by when he affirms his love for me.

3:59 am

sprite

yayyy for you and your hubby, rose. A tough battle. And a victorious rose :)

4:01 am

4:02 am

grannyrose

hey pugs, come out from under that chair....i can see-ee you.

4:02 am

ivesy3

have had family members tell me let him go..ha.. like thats gonna happen.. dont tell a addicts mother what to do becuz she doesnt listen either lol.. till u can walk in my shoes .......

4:03 am

puglet

I dont have any children(I lost a daughter earlier in life) but my sisters and their kids gives me enough headaches

4:03 am

sprite

exactly. As long as you protect yourself and your stuff from his addiction as much as you can, who could tell you what to do?

4:04 am

sprite

how terrible, puglet, to lose a child

4:04 am

ivesy3

rite sprite.. and belive me . he doesnt have a key to my home. i have learned the ins and outs.

4:05 am

ivesy3

so sorry to hear that puglet..cant imagine losing a child. ..

4:05 am

sprite

I had the feeling you had, ivesy. Sounds like you know exactly what you are doing, and you will never stop loving him. Don't let anyone ever tell you your heart is wrong :)

4:05 am

puglet

its been over thirty years(cant beleive the time has passed so fast) She died from crib death at 4 months old)

4:06 am

sprite

what a terrible blow

4:07 am

4:09 am

sprite

4:09 am

puglet

I feel like Ive kept all us from the puzzle--I dont have one word yet--lol

4:09 am

grannyrose

pugs, hugs for you too. sometimes life hands us lemons when all we want is oranges. me too. only my babe was lost in utero. never even got to hold her.

4:10 am

sprite

4:10 am

sprite

4:10 am

puglet

thanx mimi. i was well on my way to full recovery. up to 9 hour shifts, and even if i say so myself, moving rather quickly on the old pins. a month ago i actually ran at work when we had an emergency. was so chuffed.

6:38 am

MimiCat

Are you going to need another surgery, rose?

6:39 am

6:41 am

all i can say is that it is a good thing that it is a hospital you work for and they have it all right there because i could see your recovery taking a bit and they are on the line for any out of pocket expenses.did you fill out a accident form at the time it happened for the govt compensation board?

6:41 am

halfway, NBT and NBS - time for breakfast and getting on with a busy day

{{rosie}} my dear

6:41 am

MimiCat

So sorry for that, rose. My friend's mother (who is 84) spent an entire year being told the pain and inability to walk on her left leg were normal and that she would be fine. Then when she finally went to another doctor he said he could feel the screws that had come out and couldn't believe she had been this way so long. Now, 2 weeks after the second surgery, she is so much better. Going to sue the first doctor.

even though it is a clear compensation case,i can understand them wanting you at the desk if you are willing as skilled people in your position must be hard to replace with temp workers in a pinch

6:43 am

((ruby))

6:44 am

grannyrose

yes, crossy did all that. workcover are in right from the start. fortunately for me, a cl5 friend and co-worker witnessed it all. she even saw the woman mopping the plastic covering. and several of my colleagues/friends came when they heard my cries.

6:45 am

crosshair

good.good all the i,s dotted and t,s crossed

6:45 am

rubyfoo

my friend, the banshee

6:45 am

crosshair

otherwise it can come back and bite you in the arse

6:46 am

grannyrose

management claimed that the plastic couldn't have been wet...little did they know. and when they tried to blame it on my footwear, my DH, who is an occupational health and safety officer was with me. boy, did he give them what for.

6:48 am

MimiCat

Glad you had so many witnesses who were willing to speak up.

6:49 am

grannyrose

yes mimi. management are just johnny-come-latelys. my colleagues and i have been there for over 10 years.

6:51 am

MimiCat

As if you would harm yourself on purpose!! Really.... Are you able to get around?

6:52 am

grannyrose

i can now mimi. i have a splint, from thigh to ankle. it is most helpful. did try last week without it. not a pretty picture.

6:52 am

crosshair

always the way.they will always try to shift the blame to you as a matter of course unless you have witnesses

6:53 am

grannyrose

yeah, well, crossy. this time they failed to provide me with a safe work environment, and they have to admit it.

6:54 am

crosshair

good.got them buy the short and curlies;)) i have seen to many places get away with abusing thier employees in cases just like this in the petroleum industry

back after a bit. Sending DIL on a hike with the handyman

6:55 am

MimiCat

The stupid doctor who did the first surgery on my friend's mother wouldn't even give her pain medication! She was in agony for over a year and finally went to the new doctor. We wanted her to see someone else a long time ago but she wouldn't because she believed the other doctor when he said she was doing fine. I had to remind her what they call the guy who finishes last in medical school....doctor. They're NOT all good.

6:56 am

crosshair

always,always,always get second,third and fourth opinions

6:57 am

MimiCat

Yes, crossy, absolutely. I'm always amazed when someone will see, for example, a neurosurgeon for the first time and is told he wants to "cut into your brain" and that person just agrees to do it!! I'd need many more opinions for anything that serious.

6:58 am

crosshair

we did that with the wifes eye disease.we were stagnating with a certain specialist and what we did was go back down the chain,had a few of the earlier doctors re-examine her then move her to another specialist

6:59 am

grannyrose

you know, crossy? this time i am so comfortable about this. i absolute faith in my return-to-work officer. she is si middle of the road. she does what is right by the company, and does what is right by the worker. she was the one who talked management into allowing me a graduated return after my total replacement.

6:59 am

crosshair

it is a matter of trust,mimi.we trust our doctors as learnered people with all the answers but sometimes they do not have them.they are human just like the rest of us and we must be involved in our own care as well

7:00 am

MimiCat

The new dr. who finally did fix the hip said he couldn't believe she had been suffering so long. Now, 2 weeks after surgery, she's doing physical therapy and is up and about and not in pain....a year out of her life just wasted.....lawsuit!!

7:00 am

crosshair

i am so glad you have a good worker,rose

7:01 am

MimiCat

Yes, so right, crossy. We must be proactive in our own care and not hesitate to make changes when needed.

7:01 am

grannyrose

mimi, that is so awful. how can surgeons get away with that? they are NOT gods, they are human, just like the rest of us. they DO make mistakes.

7:01 am

crosshair

well,i have been through lawsuits.they knock the stuffing right out of you,even if you are in the right.depending on how deep the pockets are on the other side,they can drag it on for years,just to wait for you to run out of money or give up

7:02 am

MimiCat

The lawyers I'm interviewing for her work on contingency so they don't get paid unless they win. She couldn't afford it otherwise.

7:02 am

crosshair

i had one that dragged on for the maximum limit for the type of case.5 years and i finally just settled because it was eating up my life

7:03 am

grannyrose

crossy, over here, we have no-win, no-payment law firms.

7:03 am

crosshair

that is good if you can get the no win-no pay set up

7:04 am

MimiCat

The lawyer on my Social Security lawsuit also works that way. Am so hoping I'll get it settled either the end of this year or very beginning of next. He gets 25% but does all the work and this one does only Social Security cases and has been in business for over a decade with an excellent rating with the Better Business Bureau and no complaints against the firm....I do my homework!

7:05 am

crosshair

things have changed no.i see you can get advances on your potential settlements in cut and dried cases now

7:05 am

crosshair

25% one time fee or 25% out of each and every monthly cheque?

7:06 am

MimiCat

25% of the total and I get all the money at once.

7:06 am

crosshair

ahh ok.got you

7:08 am

MimiCat

If I win, they must give me all the back money from last year...will be around $15,000. I'll use some of it, of course, but plan to put most in a high-interest account as my nest egg.

7:08 am

grannyrose

nice plan, mimi

7:08 am

crosshair

i got a better one for you mimi...

7:09 am

crosshair

put it in a registered disability savings plan

7:09 am

crosshair

look into it

7:09 am

crosshair

ask yuour banker

7:10 am

MimiCat

Wrote that down, crossy...thanks. Will look into it.

7:10 am

crosshair

here they are good for up to 70k and the govt will match deposits

7:10 am

grannyrose

strange...i am thinking of looking into a disability pension...until i am eligible for the aged pension.

7:10 am

crosshair

look into it,ladies

7:10 am

crosshair

i have paperwork coming for that very thing for my beloved

7:11 am

crosshair

it will care for her if anything happens to me.in our case ,she will double the deposit totals every year for 9 years

7:11 am

grannyrose

ladies???? who came in?? oh, mimi, of course.

7:12 am

crosshair

then it will be reassed

7:12 am

MimiCat

Am wondering if it is available here. If not, could I invest it in a Canadian bank?

7:12 am

crosshair

and the money paid into it can be withdrawn yearly

7:12 am

crosshair

do not know,mimi.you banker will have all the info i am sure

7:13 am

crosshair

so you just leave your principal in there and skim of the govt matching funds

7:13 am

crosshair

we only learned of this just this year from out tax people

7:14 am

crosshair

our

7:14 am

crosshair

better than the best high interest savings acct

7:14 am

MimiCat

Sounds like a great plan, crossy. I get my first early retirement check next month but it isn't much until my ex reaches 62 (in a year and a half) at which time I'll get more. But still not enough to live comfortably. Your suggestion sounds like the perfect thing to do. Thanks, my friend.

7:15 am

crosshair

better than savings bonds for that matter or mortgage certificates

7:15 am

crosshair

no problem at all.when i get a inside track on something,i like to share with my babble friends;0

7:16 am

crosshair

then setting up now would be perfect timing for you mimi

7:17 am

MimiCat

I'm very lucky that I have such low overhead. I have NO credit card debt, no car payments or expenses and only rent, utilities and food (and I get food assistance due to the heart attack). I can live on much less than many people since long ago I recognized the difference between "need" and "want."

7:17 am

crosshair

it is best to phone your banks head office first.thats what i did and they are sending me the forms so i can have them ready when i go into my local branch

7:17 am

crosshair

you are a smart woman,mimi

7:18 am

MimiCat

Does that type of account also keep you from paying high taxes on the money, crossy?

7:18 am

crosshair

just google your bank online and get the head office toll free number

7:18 am

grannyrose

in case anyone is interested...google can-am spyder rss 2012, green version. you are looking at our next bike. nearly decide today, but DH would like to ride one first.

7:21 am

MimiCat

It has been a tough road these past couple of years with no income and relying on family and friends. But even so I feel lucky to have the things I do and very lucky to have such wonderful people in my life who care about me and are willing to help. To me, those relationships are what life is all about. I used to have a lot of money when I was married but I am truly happier now....attitude is everything.

7:23 am

crosshair

sorry.internet hiccuped

7:23 am

crosshair

do not know re;tax info in that mimi

7:24 am

crosshair

but spending their money is always better than spending your own,taxes on it or not

7:24 am

MimiCat

I believe reality is subjective....you can choose to look at what you DO have or choose to look at what you DON'T have and there's just no point focusing on the negative. By focusing on all I do have I'm always in a grateful frame of mind and happier.

7:24 am

grannyrose

mimi, so happy that you are happy. sometimes when our lives are turned a over t, it is for the best. and it seems to me, that you are in the better of best, hun

7:25 am

crosshair

now that our son is older,we also are living more simply and enjoying things more

7:25 am

crosshair

we got off the hampster wheel

7:26 am

MimiCat

I am at peace with who I am and am a good friend to myself....that is very important. Day to day I only have me to care for myself so I must do a good job of it!

7:27 am

crosshair

you may not believe it but crossy once was a certified type-a grinding ,3 espresso a day keeping up with the jones fella

7:27 am

crosshair

but i had a attitude adjustment lol

7:28 am

MimiCat

Yes, crossy, it seems the more money you make, the more you spend and it seemingly never ends. In any case, I believe we are here to improve our spirits first and foremost. After all, that's all you're taking with you when you go! In my belief system, if you don't do the spirit work now, you'll just have to keep coming back until you do.

7:28 am

MimiCat

We are older and wiser, crossy, which is SO much better than just being older!

7:28 am

crosshair

yes because as you know,we ARE a spirit,we HAVE a body

7:29 am

MimiCat

Very well put, crossy.

7:29 am

I have a cat meowing in my face to be fed....be right back.

MimiCat

My near-death experience 15 years ago taught me all about that, crossy..........

7:30 am

MimiCat

Yay!

7:30 am

crosshair

cancer9all three of them) taught me every single thing i will ever need to know about life

7:31 am

grannyrose

nice one, crossy

7:34 am

crosshair

like i have said be fore.cancer is a curse,but oddly enough it is a blessing.it narrows the focus of your life.you toss everything trivial or meaningless in your life over the side because you simply do not have the time or energy to deal with crap like that.it boils down to tearing the cancer out of your body and your loved ones.simple.then when all is done and you have gotten rid of the cancer that was holding you back,you look at the trivial shit that you used to sweat blood over and just shake your head and move on

7:34 am

MimiCat

Some people may not understand but things like that can be a gift insofar as they do provide insight and an attitude of gratitude.

7:35 am

crosshair

my beloved and i are closer now than we ever were pre-cancer

7:35 am

grannyrose

7:36 am

MimiCat

It is sad to me that my ex now understands what I tried to tell him all those years and I believe would get back together....but that ship has sailed for me.

7:36 am

I'm happy for you and your wife, crossy. I will remain single the rest of my life....but I'm truly OK with that.

7:41 am

you are fine indeed,mimi.you head is squarely on your shoulders and no one here doubts the path you chose or the way you shape your path;)

Hello again, all. Just got back from getting the mail and am sitting in front of my big fan cooling off. Netflix movie "Django Unchained" was in the box so will be watching that today...adore Jamie Foxx. Also having chicken spaghetti for breakfast....yes, I know I'm weird!

8:10 am

Trifioso

mimi, that movie can be hard to watch at times, but wow, is it good!

8:10 am

Judi

Chicken...spaghetti? I didn't know you could put a chicken through a pasta maker.

8:11 am

((peri))

8:13 am

Judi

Speaking of good movies (as we often do). I watched "Behind the Candleabra" on HBO not too long ago. It was tremendous. I highly recommend it. Everyone in it is amazing.

8:13 am

periwinkle

is that the one about Liberace?

8:14 am

MimiCat

Looking forward to seeing Michael Douglas as Liberace...who would have thought to cast him?!

8:14 am

Trifioso

hmmm. not so much a crying movie, actually, mimi....very violent. I assume you are familiar with Tarantino's style?

8:14 am

periwinkle

was not planning on seeing it

8:14 am

Judi

Yes, Peri.

8:14 am

periwinkle

if I see that it is on I will take a peek at it

8:14 am

Trifioso

I agree, that movie does look good. I don't have HBO, but Valentine does....

8:15 am

MimiCat

Oh, yes, Trif...not a big fan. But oddly enough, I really liked the Kill Bill movies....don't know exactly why as I also am not crazy about Uma Thurman.

8:15 am

periwinkle

I only watched #1 of kill bill. too much violence in the 2nd one

8:15 am

MimiCat

I no longer have cable but will get it from Netflix when it's released.

8:15 am

Judi

I think the Liberace movie was made for theater release, based on the huge stars who are in it. However, I think it's just a little too 'gay" for mainstream audiences. No offense to anyone. Just saying I don't think Hollywood wanted to risk it.

8:16 am

MimiCat

It's almost like Tarantino is trying to be the next David Lynch....and ONE of those was certainly enough...or too much!

8:16 am

Trifioso

when primo was getting his eagle scout badge, he made a list of people for me to write to, hoping they would write back. Quentin Tarantino was on the list, and we received a LOVELY, very respectful reply from his assistant, saying Quentin was out of the country, but congratulations.....

8:17 am

Trifioso

interesting, Judi....I wonder.....

8:18 am

MimiCat

Well, I'm impressed, Trif....I just love when celebs are kind. I have renewed respect for him!

8:19 am

Trifioso

I was impressed to. And later, of course, we put together that the movie he was prepping was Django

8:19 am

MimiCat

Even though I'm sure he didn't personally send it, at least his assistant is instructed to do so.

8:21 am

MimiCat

There are just some people I automatically will watch in movies and Jamie Foxx is one of them. But I love when he plays music even more...wish I could have access to that talent as well.

8:21 am

Trifioso

exactly. most of the people I wrote to didn't respond at all

8:22 am

MimiCat

Going to go watch Hannibal. Back later to try some more. Hugs all around.

Funny thing is, I actually got the qu8 that means that by guessing. I just didn't know that's what it meant.

TraderKate

well, i've heard of a metric ton.... but something beginning with a qu? usually has prefixes like centi, deca, etc...

11:38 am

1:16 pm

Hello, Mimi.

1:16 pm

It's not the fabulous bacon you get but it will do.

1:17 pm

MimiCat

((zoo))

1:17 pm

zoozzoom

Une..Rafa did well today..not sure if you watched the tennis or not.

1:17 pm

Uneaixoise

1:17 pm

crosshair

i just did my beloved a late meal of a couple of scrambled egg,bacon and grated cheddar breakfast wraps;))

1:17 pm

MollyL

Ahahahaha! Not sure if Une watched Rafa...ahahaha!!

1:17 pm

MimiCat

Crossy, have you ever cooked bacon in the oven with brown sugar sprinkled on top? SOOOO good...but I don't have the brown sugar right now.

1:18 pm

Uneaixoise

it was a real nailbiter :-)

1:18 pm

Uneaixoise

molly LOL

1:18 pm

zoozzoom

Teehe..i thought of you when i was watching...one way to wake you up for the day.

1:18 pm

crosshair

1:18 pm

crosshair

royal

1:19 pm

zoozzoom

LOL, Molly!

1:19 pm

Uneaixoise

I've been watching the matches on Tennis channel every day!

1:19 pm

MimiCat

I do have honey but too much trouble now...it has already been in there awhile. Besides, I save the honey for my morning tea. Now I just have to decide how big I'm going to build the sammie!

1:20 pm

zoozzoom

Have not seen the ferer & tsonga match yet, as came onto babble..so do not know who is winning that one.

1:20 pm

crosshair

mmm

1:20 pm

MimiCat

You would probably be aghast at the fact that I like the bacon almost burned.

1:21 pm

Uneaixoise

just finished -- wanna know? :-)

1:21 pm

crosshair

i like it cooked but still bendable without breaking

1:21 pm

zoozzoom

Yes please.

1:21 pm

MollyL

Mad Ru...Beyond The Punderdome

1:21 pm

crosshair

there is no wrong way to enjoy bacon:))

1:21 pm

Uneaixoise

Ferrer killed him

1:21 pm

MimiCat

I'm weird that way....like burned potato chips and french fries, toast...want the bacon to break and be crispy. Hey, whatever we enjoy, right?!

1:22 pm

MollyL

By the way, that link Une posted has an extra
\n in it. Tiny url people, tiny url.

1:22 pm

zoozzoom

Wow.i thought it was going to be a close run thing..but not..ahould be a good final then.

1:22 pm

crosshair

my wife adores very darkly cook potato chips

1:22 pm

MimiCat

Even my cats are going a bit crazy from the aroma emanating from the kitchen! May have a fight on my hands trying to eat!

1:22 pm

zoozzoom

should*

1:22 pm

Uneaixoise

surprising -- Tsonga seemed really sluggish

1:23 pm

crosshair

tell the cats that they are next if they do not stand back from the bacon

1:23 pm

MimiCat

I often make my own chips and get them very dark. Didn't think anyone else liked 'em that way!

1:23 pm

zoozzoom

Whats your prediction for the final rafa wins by?

1:24 pm

MimiCat

LOL....yeah....they'd know I'm all talk....can't even kill a bug that gets in. I catch it and put it outside!

1:24 pm

Uneaixoise

I really like watching him play Ferrer -- they're well matched and are good buddies off court

1:24 pm

Uneaixoise

BRB

1:24 pm

crosshair

my cats eat any bugs and spiders.all crunchy protein as far as they are concerned

1:25 pm

MimiCat

My timer just went off for the 12 minutes the package recommends....not nearly done enough for me...will check in 5-minute increments until it is burned.

1:25 pm

1:26 pm

MimiCat

Yep---like my food totally beaten into submission!

1:27 pm

TraderKate

ewwwwww ;)

1:27 pm

MimiCat

Think I'll keep the sammie simple today...have fresh vine-ripe tomatoes, avocado, cheese and the bacon...that should do it. I never use lettuce---doesn't agree with my tummy.

1:28 pm

crosshair

there you go:)) need a dab of mayo

1:28 pm

MimiCat

My one male seems to want to kiss me right after he licks the butt of one of the others.....ick.

1:28 pm

zoozzoom

All this bacon talk is making me want a full breakfast even though it is 7:28pm here..lol

1:28 pm

MimiCat

Oh, yes, Miracle Whip and a bit of horseradish mustard on a King's Hawaiian sandwich roll.

1:29 pm

zoozzoom

Oh how gross, Mimi!..hahaha

1:29 pm

crosshair

1:29 pm

TraderKate

mmmmm full english breafast would go down well right about now. it's getting toward the dinner hour here

1:30 pm

crosshair

common over kate i will even do the eggs english style for you with proper bubble and squeak

1:30 pm

MimiCat

When I eat something substantial in the middle of the day (almost noon here) I generally don't have dinner...maybe a light snack.

1:30 pm

zoozzoom

I have never seen a cat lick another cats butt...not that i want to either..just saying.

1:30 pm

TraderKate

ooooh! bubble and squeak!!!! yummers :)

1:30 pm

crosshair

i rarely eat a full dinner

1:30 pm

TraderKate

mine did, but they were father and son...

1:30 pm

MollyL

Okay, I'm getting queasy with all the cat kissing and cat butt licking. Ew.

1:31 pm

crosshair

lol

1:31 pm

MimiCat

I ADORE bubble and squeak, Kate! We have a place here that makes a really good one and it's just a couple of blocks away from me.

1:31 pm

MimiCat

LOL, Molly.

1:31 pm

crosshair

we can focus on bubble and squeak instead

1:31 pm

MimiCat

Crossy, do you drain the bacon a bit while cooking in the oven or just let it cook in the grease?

1:32 pm

TraderKate

surprised you have bubble and squeak ihn your corner of the world mimi... do they also do bangers and mash?

1:32 pm

crosshair

i do it stove top more often than not and never drain it till it is done

1:32 pm

MollyL

If I cook bacon in the oven I put it on a wire rack.

1:33 pm

MimiCat

Yep...it's an English style pub place and they have all that stuff. Yummy fish and chips.

1:33 pm

crosshair

mmmm.now i am hungry again

1:33 pm

MimiCat

I don't have a rack, crossy...seems that husband got it in the divorce (don't even ask). Think I should drain it a bit? It's really swimming in it.

1:34 pm

TraderKate

<----- going to visit mimi during the winter, just for some good pub grub :)

1:34 pm

crosshair

drain of 50% of it

1:34 pm

crosshair

off

1:34 pm

MimiCat

I save glass containers to pour the grease in, chill in fridge and then throw away. My mother used to cook lots of things in bacon grease but I can't get behind that idea.

1:34 pm

crosshair

but carefull no burning yerself

1:34 pm

ursh

1:37 pm

TraderKate

hi aloy :)

1:37 pm

crosshair

1:37 pm

MollyL

Ooo, I haven't made broccoli soup in a while.

1:38 pm

crosshair

howdy,aloy

1:38 pm

MimiCat

OK---just drained some. Good idea about using for potatoes, crossy. Yeah, I know it isn't "good" for us but my father ate fried eggs cooked in bacon grease and 6 strips of bacon every morning of his life for nearly 70 years....he was healthy but the smoking finally killed him. He started smoking again after having quit for 20 years and developed mesothelioma due to his asbestos exposure when he was working.

1:38 pm

Aloyisius

good to pair that soup with a BLT

1:39 pm

crosshair

my beloveds mum and dad both died of cigarettes within these last 3 years

1:39 pm

MollyL

Sounds like a good combination of flavors Aloy.

1:39 pm

Aloyisius

Mimi, my hubby's relatives down south did the same thing.. eggs and bacon and ham.. they all lived long lives; Aunt Gladys was 102

1:39 pm

MimiCat

Do any of you have Marie Callender's restaurants in your area? They have the BEST potato cheese soup served with honey butter cornbread. OK....now my salivary glands are getting totally out of control...

1:40 pm

TraderKate

grilled old cheddar cheese goes nicely with broccoli soup :)

1:40 pm

Aloyisius

ooh, potato soup!

1:40 pm

crosshair

you will only cut me off my breakfast when you can pry it from my cold,dead hands

1:40 pm

Aloyisius

agree, Trader!

1:40 pm

Aloyisius

in fact, I just finished a pimiento on whole wheat toast

1:41 pm

crosshair

now i am really hungry

1:41 pm

TraderKate

all this food talk, i am diverted from my word hunting...still need 96! pressure is on now ;)

1:41 pm

MimiCat

Even though I had the heart attack last year, I have decided I'm eating what I want. I mostly do eat pretty healthily but a friend of mine went vegan last year and I told her I'd rather die than give up cheese and chicken!

1:42 pm

TraderKate

could live without chicken, but cheese??? NEVER!

1:43 pm

crosshair

after 3 cancers,i know damn well it will be cancer that will get me in the end.so i am not going to make myself miserable eating raw foot or whatever.i am on my 6th or 7th like and will live it

1:45 pm

MollyL

I like vegetables, but I think eating all vegetables all the time would get boring.

1:45 pm

Aloyisius

hmm, ate granola for bfast and missed ce6, 7.. shame on me

1:46 pm

TraderKate

thanks aloy, scoooopin' up the clues...

1:46 pm

crosshair

next is a ride in a submarine.this one may take a bit of work

1:46 pm

Aloyisius

(-: yw

1:47 pm

MimiCat

I'm with you there, crossy. When my kids were growing up and starting asking about death here is what I told them: "When it is your turn to go, God knows where to find you. If it's not your turn, no way are you leaving. So don't worry about it because control is an illusion."

1:48 pm

TraderKate

does anyone have a hint for the he 7/40 please?

1:48 pm

Aloyisius

now I'm humming, "we all live in a yellow.."

1:48 pm

MimiCat

I also advised them to put off growing up as long as they possibly could because being an adult has little to recommend it. They didn't listen......

1:48 pm

crosshair

think it will be begging a ride on a oceanographic research sub or the like.i do not think our CFB Borden owns a sub for the military lol

1:48 pm

crosshair

i astill have not grown up,and now that i am 50,i am told i do not have to

1:49 pm

MimiCat

Contact the Cousteau Society, crossy....they often allow people on expeditions. Their subs are small, though.

1:49 pm

crosshair

lolthey are all small:/

1:49 pm

TraderKate

we bought our subs from the brits, and they leak :(
if you pay woods hole or james cameron enough $$$ i'm sure they'd oblige ;)

1:49 pm

MimiCat

I do miss that icon smores had...I'm 62 and I actually think I'm regressing.

1:49 pm

crosshair

do not get me going on those junkers we got from the brits

1:50 pm

1:50 pm

1:51 pm

TraderKate

1:58 pm

crosshair

1:59 pm

crosshair

2:00 pm

Aloyisius

2:00 pm

crosshair

though with those subs you lay flat crammed in like sardines in a can

2:01 pm

Aloyisius

2:02 pm

Aloyisius

2:02 pm

crosshair

2:03 pm

Aloyisius

ah so, not the sport for you then

2:03 pm

crosshair

wonder if the powerball winner will loan me 20 mil till payday? lol

2:04 pm

Aloyisius

2:05 pm

crosshair
