We moved here over 4 years ago and still haven't painted the house like it needed THEN

1:43 am

m9f9l

and that's bingo, right column!LOL

1:45 am

rbud

we moved in here 22 years ago, had a friend do the entire downstairs interior with an airless sprayer, all in off-white - several rooms are still that same color, haha - high time for a change.

1:45 am

m9f9l

Oh.. you have oatmeal ceilings??LOL

1:46 am

m9f9l

22 years doesn't seem as long as it used to.... I was thinking of the oatmeal ceilings (textured) of my youth, and then realized 22 years ago is after I had children.

1:47 am

rbud

as a matter of fact, the (old) living room has the popcorn ceiling, I hate it! can't get the spiderwebs off it. It's getting replaced with tongue and groove wood.

1:47 am

m9f9l

Oh that will be nice!

1:48 am

m9f9l

finally 1/2 way!

1:48 am

rbud

we did that in the old bedroom, which is now the new living room, it looks great.

2:13 am

rubyfoo

oh, sorry. I'll be quiet now

2:14 am

grannyrose

i would like everyone's opinion on something. at the moment i am on a return-to-work program, under workcover. i have been told that if i become ill/sick in anyway due to my injury, while i am at work, i am allowed to go home, on sick leave, and not workcover.

2:14 am

rubyfoo

but doesn't that ean you would lose the sick leave days that are coming to y ou anyway?

2:15 am

rubyfoo

when I was a teacher, we had 5 days of sick leave a year and if you didn't take them, they didn't accrue

2:15 am

grannyrose

i mean if i am in so much pain/discomfort i have to go home and take pain meds too strong to work with, i have to use my sick leave hours

2:16 am

grannyrose

exactly, ruby. it doesn't sit right with me.

2:16 am

gapeach

Somehow that doesn't seem fair. Who made these rules?

2:16 am

rubyfoo

are you in a union? It sounds like something for a union rep to sort out

2:16 am

gapeach

brb

2:17 am

grannyrose

peach, it has come from the DON and my manager. i am going to ask the return-to-work co-ordinator tomorrow.

2:18 am

grannyrose

ruby, work-cover and union are 2 different bodies. but if i have to do so, i will go to the union.

2:19 am

rubyfoo

I wasn\t keen o the teachers' union, but I ould see how it could help you in this very unfair situation.

2:19 am

rubyfoo

singe

2:20 am

rubyfoo

I did it again. Bad nel!

2:45 am

rubyfoo

2:45 am

Lizlin

Ty for the clues, Rose :)

2:45 am

grannyrose

so....we all keep each other afloat, held high, ......lots of hugs

2:46 am

grannyrose

np's liz.

2:46 am

rubyfoo

and paddling as fast as we can!

2:46 am

grannyrose

not backwards though.....*giggle*

2:47 am

grannyrose

hey ruby like a duck, calm and serene above water, paddling like fury below?

2:47 am

rubyfoo

it's funny, people here keep saying that swimming is the best exercise but what if you can't swim....I'd sink like a stone in this frezing lake

2:48 am

Lizlin

Your friends will throw you a rope

2:48 am

grannyrose

ruby, my DH is the same, no matter what the temp. is, he sinks like a stone, he simply cannot float.

2:48 am

rubyfoo

one can hope.

2:49 am

rubyfoo

The only place I could ever swim (and not well at all) was in teh warm ocean at Miami Beach

2:49 am

grannyrose

oh, my dearest one, no need to hope, know that it is true.

2:49 am

grannyrose

lol, one day i am going to take himself to the dead sea.

2:50 am

rubyfoo

I guess it's a question of bone/fat ratio.... my father was the same but my mother could float wy on top of the water. Maybe she was closer to heaven.....

2:50 am

rubyfoo

that's where I would like to go

2:50 am

Lizlin

It's an awesome experience

2:50 am

grannyrose

good, will pick you up on the way through...lolol

2:51 am

rubyfoo

you were there, liz?

2:51 am

Lizlin

Want to go back with my hubby

2:51 am

grannyrose

liz, you have swum in the dead sea? what was it like?

2:51 am

Lizlin

Yes but a long time ago

2:51 am

rubyfoo

I'm sure it's still as salty lol

2:52 am

Lizlin

Can't swim - you just float hands and fett sticking up in the air.

2:52 am

grannyrose

my guess is nothing has changed, liz

2:52 am

Lizlin

The waters kind of oily

2:52 am

rubyfoo

I would love that

2:52 am

Lizlin

And it's warm!

2:53 am

grannyrose

hmmm....question....if the water is so salty, how long can you stay in it? i wouldn't want to be pickled...

2:54 am

rubyfoo

it's reputedly wonderful for eczema and psoriasis

2:54 am

Lizlin

Lol!

2:54 am

rubyfoo

I'm already pickled, anyway

2:54 am

Lizlin

The mud baths there are good too.

2:54 am

grannyrose

rofl, ditto, ruby

2:55 am

grannyrose

i didn't mean that pickled, i meant as in pickled pork or corned beef....

2:55 am

Lizlin

Bbs

2:55 am

grannyrose

later liz

2:55 am

rubyfoo

3:42 am

grannyrose

{{{dianne}}} hello hun

3:43 am

Andree

thanks , what a weird word

3:45 am

grannyrose

okay, just checked the definition...si4 of the board where qu5 is situated...must be a chess term

3:46 am

Dianne

Rose, how are things going?

3:54 am

grannyrose

dianne, having difficulties, in that managers will not recognise workcover claim...they say if i have trouble getting through a shift, i must use sick leave, not workcover...:(

3:56 am

lynxxx

Hello everyone

3:56 am

Dianne

what exactly is "workcover"?

3:57 am

lynxxx

Hi Rose, that doesn't sound right - your case manager get involved surely?

3:57 am

Andree

hi lynxxx

3:58 am

lynxxx

Workcover - 'insurance' paid by a company to the government to cover workers who get injured on the job

3:58 am

lynxxx

hi Andree

3:58 am

Andree

its what we call workers compensation

3:59 am

Dianne

Well if you were hurt/injued on the job then it seems reasonable that the workcover would apply.

3:59 am

Andree

i paid out many thousands over the years for my drivers and never got to claim a single cent

4:05 am

grannyrose

dianne, management are now saying if we are unable to get through a whole shift, we are to go home, using our sick leave, not work=cover payments.

4:06 am

lynxxx

hi Rose - that must be upsetting for you. (hugs) And your WC case manager says?

4:07 am

grannyrose

which from my perspective is totally wrong. i wouldn't be going off sick/sore if the injury had not happened in the first place.

4:07 am

grannyrose

liz, will hopefully talk to her tomorrow, when i am supposed to work my next shift.

4:08 am

Dianne

Wel, let us know the outcome of your conversation. Good luck.

4:09 am

grannyrose

aww,thanx dianne. will definitely do so tomorrow night.

4:09 am

lynxxx

Keep your chin up and stand up for your rights. You def aren't a shirker

4:10 am

grannyrose

and thanx liz....

4:12 am

sprite

good morning, babble friends

4:12 am

Andree

i think it crazy that they expect you to work a full shift

4:12 am

Andree

hi sprite

4:13 am

lynxxx

hi Sprite

4:13 am

grannyrose

{{{{sprite}}}} xoxoxox

4:13 am

sprite

hi Andree :)
Hiya rose *hugs*, what a nonse5 you have to battle with at work :(

4:14 am

grannyrose

andree, i'm supposed to work 10 hours, am only working 9 hours...lol

4:14 am

grannyrose

*sigh* yes i know....but i have God on my si4...;)

4:14 am

sprite

they are so full of it, rose. Get all the help you can get and make sure they don't bully you into doing more than you can, or in going home.

4:15 am

Andree

i think you should be home and not using up your sick leave either

4:16 am

grannyrose

not a lot management can do, considering my surgeon is the medical director of the facility. :)

4:16 am

sprite

yay for that

4:16 am

Andree

lol

4:17 am

lynxxx

is it all the management or just your new supervisor?

4:17 am

grannyrose

and btw, i was told on tuesday, i wasn't allowed to wear dangly earrings. only studs and hoops...lol...some of my studs are pretty flash..

4:17 am

sprite

hi lyn :) xxx

4:17 am

lynxxx

hi Sprite

4:18 am

grannyrose

liz, all management...but as i said i am going to check in with my return-to work officer. she is so good.

4:18 am

sprite

she better stand up for you. This sounds like bullying to me.

4:20 am

lynxxx

I think the new supervisor is trying to prove how 'capable' she is and the others are just too lazy to say anything

4:20 am

grannyrose

so...we are not allowed to wear our own hats, restricted on our earrings, and our shoes must not have any holes/gaps in them, like crocs, they must also have a heel and a strap to hold them in place...talk about 1984, georger orwell.

4:21 am

sprite

offer to show her your underwear, so she can decide whether that is up to her views?

4:21 am

lynxxx

Kevin is in! s**t!

4:21 am

grannyrose

can we see a trend here?

4:22 am

grannyrose

good grief, liz!!! really????

4:22 am

sprite

yeah, what lyn says... an overachiever.

4:23 am

grannyrose

wonder what she is going to say to one of our surgeons who does not wear knickers???

4:24 am

sprite

my bet? She won't, cause he/she is a surgeon.

4:24 am

lynxxx

Geez - Kevin or Tony - what a choice (not that personality has any bearing!)

4:24 am

grannyrose

yeah!!! and the surgeons rule because???

4:25 am

sprite

I am out of the loop... what's with the Kevin and the Tony thing?

4:25 am

Andree

i am wondering the same thing sprite

4:25 am

lynxxx

Government here Sprite...elections coming up and our current PM has just been voted out by her party

4:25 am

grannyrose

*giggle* lyn....sprite, 2 of our politicians...they are striving for prime ministership of our country...

4:26 am

sprite

often I wonder how it comes to be, that the future of our country will be decided by such little men...

4:27 am

grannyrose

okay, dinner ready...will bbl. {{hugs}} and {{kisses}} to all

4:27 am

sprite

enjoy, rose :)

4:28 am

lynxxx

Bye Rose. Taking a break myself - BBL

4:28 am

sprite

bye for now, lyn

4:29 am

Andree

o my god and i have missed the news

4:29 am

sprite

if it is anything like ours, it will be repeated at least 4 times next hour

4:30 am

Andree

i know but i will put the telly on

4:31 am

sprite

good idea

5:07 am

sprite

5:18 am

dizgrannie

5:19 am

5:32 am

Scrabbler

Good day. Anyone around?

5:37 am

dizgrannie

Me is here with 7 left

5:38 am

Scrabbler

Wow, good for you. I need 108 and am seeing very little now.

5:46 am

dizgrannie

F/Ws, had to go to Lickety's. Just remember to past tense and use gerund ending on a lot of words.

5:48 am

Scrabbler

Too many repeat letters are confusing my brain--I's, E's, N's...

5:57 am

crosshair

good morning everyone:)

5:57 am

Scrabbler

Hi Crossy!

5:58 am

crosshair

5:58 am

Scrabbler

How is life up north?

5:59 am

crosshair

6:00 am

crosshair

sahara

6:00 am

Scrabbler

Wowee! My nephew has a Wrangler. I can't remember if it is a Sahara.

6:01 am

crosshair

this is a wrangler base.the trim level is the sahara edition

6:01 am

crosshair

and omgf...

6:01 am

crosshair

or omfg even

6:02 am

Scrabbler

It's a tank.

6:02 am

crosshair

you get used to it very very fast.we took it all up blue mountain and down every goat path i could think of

6:03 am

Scrabbler

Yesterday I made my decision--time for a new car! I brought my car to the auto shop and, when I was told that the rear suspension needed to be dismantled and rebuilt, I knew it was time to ay goodbye to this car. :-(

6:03 am

crosshair

tip start feture,auto hill decent assist,ac,sirus sat radio,cruise control,heated seats,freedom to..etc,etc

6:04 am

crosshair

yes,you told me it is starting to become amoney pit

6:04 am

crosshair

top

6:05 am

crosshair

you were debating a jeep as well i remember.IF you lean that way,you better move fast.the stable of 2013,s is amost sold out and they will be taking orders for the 2014 year..at 8k more

6:05 am

Scrabbler

168K miles, and I bought in 8 yrs 3 mo ago

6:06 am

crosshair

must be nice when an entire model year sells out:)

6:06 am

Scrabbler

I will get another SUbaru--probably another Forester.

6:06 am

crosshair

my current car turned 9 years this may just past

6:07 am

Scrabbler

I had hoped to pass 200K with my Subaru but our winters are brutal

6:07 am

MimiCat

Hi, crossy and Scrabbler! It's only 4 am here but am trying to get in a bit of grid play before starting work this morning...second day on new job.

6:08 am

Scrabbler

Hi Mimi. Getting better at interpreting the fast-talking doc?

6:08 am

crosshair

howdy,mimi:))

6:09 am

MimiCat

I haven't had her yet. But it's always difficult at the beginning learning a new system. By the end of yesterday I was getting the hang of it.

6:09 am

MimiCat

((crossy))

6:10 am

Scrabbler

I am looking at the Subaru Legacys--compact/non-SUV--but then I would need a new kayak roof rack.

6:10 am

crosshair

hehe,i will be able to toss my kayak right on top of the jeep:))

6:11 am

crosshair

out the door price,with all the add ons,taxes,extended warranty and a set of winter snows on rims is 29k

6:11 am

Scrabbler

The Legacys have naked roofs. Imperzas too, I think.

6:11 am

Scrabbler

Wow!

6:11 am

crosshair

for reference,my 2004 echo was 21 k out the door

6:11 am

Scrabbler

*Impreza

6:13 am

Scrabbler

I am hoping to spend less than 22K for a gently used SUbaru. I will shop Saturday and my local sister will come along to help. Usually my Dad did all of the research and went to all of the dealerships first, then told me my best options.

6:13 am

crosshair

i bought my echo at a bad time however,just before the big 3 went belly up.it was not a buyers market

6:13 am

crosshair

i want minty fresh this time.love that new car smell

6:14 am

Scrabbler

I'll see what my options are.

6:14 am

crosshair

so how used? a demo model or one 2 years old?

6:15 am

crosshair

i have to return my demo by 9 am this morn cause even that was sold

6:15 am

moonwoof

Evening wonderful wordjunkies!

6:16 am

MimiCat

Hi, moon!

6:16 am

crosshair

howdy moonwolf.07:15 am here and a nice day shaping up

6:17 am

moonwoof

Honestly... I cant see the clock, atm, but Im still up and it prolly counts for someone ^^

6:17 am

MimiCat

Hey, crossy, we're expecting 117 degrees Saturday and Sunday...may break the record for the dates....UGH!!

6:17 am

crosshair

yup,it does moonwolf.for our west coasters,it is still 4 am;))

6:18 am

moonwoof

Youre in AZ, too, huh? lol

6:18 am

crosshair

ouch mimi!!

6:18 am

crosshair

78 and sun today for the great white north

6:18 am

MimiCat

And still no rain in sight....

6:19 am

Scrabbler

Hi Moonwoof

6:19 am

crosshair

mimi,you guys should all just bail out and let the place go to toal desert

6:19 am

Scrabbler

Crossy, I would like a pre-owned vehicle with < 20-30K miles unless I can get a better deal on a new car.

6:19 am

crosshair

total

6:19 am

Scrabbler

117 degrees!

6:20 am

crosshair

so,1-2 years old

6:20 am

Scrabbler

We have 3-4 days of thunderstorms ahead.

6:20 am

MimiCat

Am just hanging on until early next year. Then hoping to move either into the mountains or to northern California where I can become a nuisance to ruru.

6:21 am

Scrabbler

There is a 2012 Forester--RED!--with just under 8K miles, but manual transmission. How quickly can I learn to use that?

6:21 am

MimiCat

I was here the day it hit 122 degrees years ago...if you went outside it was actually difficult to breathe.

6:21 am

crosshair

ruru needs a mother figure to keep an eye on him anyways

6:21 am

crosshair

less that a month you will have it down pat scrabby

6:22 am

Scrabbler

Yeah, go live near Ruru!

6:22 am

MimiCat

All these years of being in Phoenix I've constantly missed California.

6:22 am

moonwoof

most people I know who've learned a stick only took a week or two to get comfortable with it

6:22 am

Scrabbler

Crossy, I want my new car on Saturday! My auto mechanic said that my rusted rear ball bearings are rather dangerous.

6:23 am

crosshair

it is not a bad thing scrabby

6:23 am

moonwoof

aside from the heat, Im actually really enjoying phoenix

6:23 am

Scrabbler

But I would need to drive home (90 minutes) from the dealership with manual transmission.

6:23 am

crosshair

they can be indeed.ever have an entire rear end go out of a car while driving it??? it is not pretty...

6:24 am

crosshair

good training for you scrabby

6:24 am

MimiCat

Moon, are you here visiting for a bit?

6:24 am

moonwoof

Nope! This is where Ive landed for a little while. Im still travelling a little bit for work a cpl of months a year, but we'll be in AJ for at least a cpl of yrs

6:26 am

MimiCat

Phoenix has a lot to offer in many ways. I've been here 30 years. What part of town are you living in? I'm at 7th St. and Bell Rd. in northern Phoenix.

6:26 am

moonwoof

Apache Junction

6:26 am

moonwoof

But close enuf to phoenix that I dont hate it and can get a phone signal lol

6:27 am

MimiCat

Have you gone on the Apache Trail yet?

6:27 am

moonwoof

Ive been working here a cpl of months a year for the last 18, or so, but we've moved here from MN for a bit

6:27 am

moonwoof

yup. and peralta and all thru the superstitions. I was a big hiker for a while

6:28 am

boatierra

I was wondering if AJ stood for Apache Junction. I live in Phoenix as well, all my life.

6:28 am

moonwoof

hiya!

6:28 am

boatierra

Hey :)

6:28 am

MimiCat

It's nice out there. My son and his family live in Mesa. When I first moved here I was located in Tempe. For 17 years lived next door to Cave Creek/Carefree.

6:29 am

Scrabbler

Three Phoenicians here at once!

6:29 am

moonwoof

Ive traveled most of my life, for the most part. So this is an excellent change

6:29 am

moonwoof

lol nice! Ms Scrabbler!

6:29 am

MimiCat

Yep, Scrabbler...three of us at the same time...what are the odds against that?

6:30 am

MimiCat

A bit of trivia....there are more boats per capita and more golf courses in Arizona than anywhere else in the U.S.

6:31 am

moonwoof

Weird huh?

6:31 am

boatierra

On my profile it says I'm from "tierra del calor" which means 'land of heat' in Spanish.

6:31 am

boatierra

And we have more pools than anywhere in the US.

6:31 am

MimiCat

People are always surprised about the boats but they forget we have lots of lakes, especially heading north.

6:32 am

Scrabbler

Boats in Phoenix? Aren't you in the desert?

6:32 am

boatierra

True

6:32 am

moonwoof

Very much desert, yup

6:32 am

moonwoof

But with what mimi said, plus the snow birds, etc, the boats add up.

6:33 am

boatierra

List of lakes in AZ: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_l\nakes_in_Arizona

6:33 am

MimiCat

Can you believe it's going up to 117 this weekend? I just wish we'd see some real monsoon activity soon. I so much miss thunderstorms. Can't even remember the last time we had rain.

6:33 am

moonwoof

I even know people who own boats here, but only use them in other states.

6:33 am

Scrabbler

We had more rain in the first 2 wks of June than we usually get in an entire June.

6:33 am

moonwoof

the last time we had rain out here (tho thats a bit different than phoenix) was only a month or so ago

6:34 am

moonwoof

But it was early morning and brief. Definately not monsoony

6:34 am

boatierra

I'm looking forward to the monsoons as well. Make for gorgeous skies.

6:35 am

MimiCat

You always get more rain there than I do here, moon. Early next year I'm planning to move either to northern CA or up into the mountains on the Mogollon Rim....will see how bad real estate prices are in CA....already know it's much higher there.

6:36 am

moonwoof

It is, yea. But still. If its where you want... That may well be worth it. The mountains there are gorgeous too

6:36 am

Scrabbler

I finally passed halfway, just in time to get ready for work. Bye, kids. Enjoy the day.

6:36 am

boatierra

Bye Scrabbler :)

6:36 am

moonwoof

hagd scrabbler!

6:36 am

okie dokie! never thought of that!

9:35 am

dcseain

I'm pleased that DOMA is unconstitutional and the CA Prop 8 case has been voided and remanded with insturtions that no standing. It's been a verklempt kind of morning.

9:35 am

lbdawger

ty, kje and moonwoof

9:35 am

kje

I wouldn't have either without the clue!

9:35 am

lbdawger

I was pleased to hear that too, DC

9:36 am

kje

yep, dc... not pleased with many of SCOTUS decsions this week, but glad to see DOMA overturned... wasn't sure it would happen!

9:36 am

Bethjt

I'm disappointed that it only applies to California!

9:36 am

moonwoof

agreed. About both DOMA and some of the other moronic choices, this week.

9:37 am

dcseain

With the current court, that's rather the best i was hoping for at this time. Lack of DOMA will make the state laws much more easily challengable.

9:37 am

kje

also cool what happened in Austin last night, though suspect that will not be the end of that bill

9:37 am

moonwoof

So *far* beth. It always has to start somewhere

9:37 am

dcseain

Fully agreed, kje. I got little sleep due to following that last night.

9:37 am

Bethjt

Lots of tough women hanging in to the very end!

wow.

9:58 am

hurshy

in case anyone has not seen the news, both the US supreme court rulings on gay marriage were pretty definitive. DOMA is overturned, and the opponents of same-sex marriage do not have standing to appeal the overturn of the ban on prop 8 by the lower court.

9:58 am

lbdawger

tadone!! finito!! challenging grid for me today.

9:58 am

hurshy

kennedy wrote the decision re: DOMA.

9:58 am

mixi6

i'm back. had to go read about DOMA and Texas. NC has backed off on clean water requirements from Lake Joran, where my drinking water comes from. more stupidity.

9:58 am

hurshy

so sorry to hear that mixi!

10:00 am

mixi6

They are also setting rules for tracking which is still illegal. The coal companies own the southern bit of this county too.

10:00 am

mael

ding dong, the DOMA witch is dead!

10:00 am

hurshy

i have a friend in NC and from what i hear from him you guys have been having to deal with a lot of stupidity lately there. he's been arrested in the protests.

10:01 am

hurshy

(i bask in the vicarious glory of having a friend arrested for protesting)

10:07 am

hurshy

speaking of the wizard of oz, am i the only one who looks at the edward snowden thing and feels like dorothy watching toto leave the witch's castle, going, "he got away! he got away!" (ok yes, it may not be over yet)

10:07 am

mixi6

sea levels can only rise so much with out the approval of the legislature. after that what can you expect???

10:08 am

hurshy

*hugs mixi in sympathy*

10:08 am

Judi

So far, he's gotten away, Hurshy. I hope he makes it to Ecuador.

10:09 am

hurshy

i heard he was also thinking about iceland. if i had to be exiled, i think i could go for iceland. my grandparents visited there and said good things.

10:09 am

kje

def iceland over ecuador

10:09 am

Judi

Obviously, he doesn't want to go anywhere that has an extradition agreement with the U.S.

10:10 am

hurshy

right but i'm assuming if the news mentioned iceland as a possibility that means they don't

10:10 am

I'm near chapel hill with a high percentage of PhD.'s, ...and some sanity.

10:12 am

hurshy

the voting law *groan*

10:12 am

Judi

Cheaper cost of living in Ecuador. I'm assuming, as well as revoking his passport, his accounts have been frozen.

10:12 am

hurshy

10:13 am

4:59 pm

lilliann

it's different here as i've seen people write en6/7 as officers in the army here but in the uk, it is a flag on a naval ship

5:01 pm

lilliann

so it does sometimes get confusing with the different meanings over the pond for you and us

5:03 pm

MollyL

But don't you Brits and Canadians spell things the same way. (My husband used to say Canada was a beard of England)

5:04 pm

lilliann

en6/7 is also what most ships flags are named too

5:05 pm

lilliann

no, i think the Canadians spell more like the Americans.they say alot of your words. i think they are more like you than us

5:06 pm

periwinkle

I need 2nd se7/36 pls. what that one clued?

5:06 pm

lilliann

molly, you both tend to have alot of food the same and other things but they are still their own country(i don't want to fall out with any Canadians) :)

5:07 pm

MollyL

Oh I don't know about that L. Canadians use a lot of British spellings and phrases.

5:10 pm

lilliann

when i've heard them speaking on holiday, they sound more like you and the phrases, but i must admit i haven't seen alot of their spellings.but saying that, alot of our ex-servicemen moved out with their families after the war, plus alot who had met canadian women during.my mam was on a ship to canada but it was one that got blown up, luckily enough, my nan took her off before it sailed and said if we're going to die, we'll die together

Hi lilliann. Quite a story of survival and carrying on in spite of mean people.

5:20 pm

lilliann

well, it was a story like that all over Europe gmere.my nan and her family lived in south London and got bombed regularly so they were use to their Anderson shelter, but quite often they'd just shelter under the stairs.my mam never knew her dad until she was 4, and that was after the war

5:21 pm

stidgmere

Glad we are all here now.

5:22 pm

lilliann

it was a very tough time for all the countries involved and families of all servicemen/woman,doctors,nurses etc, they gave us the lives we have today and i know that i am very grateful for what they all sacrificed for us, it's a shame that a lot of the young peopl today don't feel that

5:23 pm

7:16 pm

lilliann

i was never good with fractions or maths actually, gladly the bairn is doing really well, she definitely doesn't take after me in that subject :)

7:17 pm

Lizlin

I'm glad I only taught primary maths - some things - like ratio - I wasn't that far ahead of the kids I taught!!!!

7:17 pm

lilliann

that is a silly word, as in he5 what we have instead of walls

7:17 pm

Lizlin

Teaching maths actually helped me understand it much better.

7:18 pm

lilliann

the shrub bushy thing

7:18 pm

Lizlin

Duh! Of course!

7:18 pm

lilliann

i've never heard of it that way though

7:18 pm

Lizlin

But a silly word, as you said!

7:19 pm

Lizlin

Must've tried the e ending on that a number of times!

7:19 pm

Lizlin

And then there were the s's and the t's!!!! Another 13 of them!

7:20 pm

lilliann

lol for the ratio, i never understood that either, in fact i didn't understand alot in maths. i could do it in my head and then one day i got all my answers wrong in primary and i got upset and never could do it after that. i could do it ion my head but not write all the workings out on paper

7:21 pm

lilliann

let m eknow what you need as molly has desserted us!! :D

7:21 pm

Lizlin

That's the daft thing - the requirement to show your working out!

7:21 pm

lilliann

i can understand when you get to high school but not in primary

7:22 pm

Lizlin

Not helped by SATS

7:23 pm

Lizlin

se 6 / 7 before the word meaning dispatch

7:23 pm

lilliann

definitely not.my daughter didn't do well in her sat at the end of primary but in all school work she's spot on, but saying that in the last 2 years since she went up to high school, she seems to be doing really well in the end of year tests and all year round school work

7:24 pm

Lizlin

That's great. Bet she's looking forward to the holidays though. Even though I know she likes school.

7:25 pm
