2:39 am

gapeach

Yep, a hug would help. I'm just down about my niece. She will have 9 weeks of chemo and then the doctor will say whether or not the proton beam would help.

2:41 am

gapeach

She's trouper, tho, Rose. This is the 4th time she's had cancer. Sounded "up" when I spoke with her, but that is her way.

3:05 am

gapeach

Yes, Rose. Thanks you so much.

3:05 am

grannyrose

sprite, don much better. off oxygen, and they hope to start oral hydrocortisone tomorrow. if he stays good on that he will come home the next day.

3:06 am

sprite

ah that sounds good, rose. Am so glad. And how are you doing?

3:06 am

grannyrose

MIL remains well on the road to recovery. redness and swollen leg much less.

3:07 am

grannyrose

i went out to the pharmacy and got some cough mixture, which breaks up the phlegm and dries the nose. also making sure i take meds for temperature regularly.at least i can breathe now.

3:08 am

sprite

ok, that doesn't sound too bad then. Good for you! *sending a busload of helping angels to rose*

3:08 am

gapeach

Bless your heart, Rose. You all are in my prayers.

3:08 am

sprite

we have a strong prayer circle going.

3:08 am

gapeach

Dogs need to go out....brb

3:09 am

sprite

ok peach, see you soon

3:09 am

grannyrose

thanx friends....am resting as much as possible. am visiting don twice/day.

3:10 am

sprite

very taxing, visiting in hospitals. But good about the resting. Allowing the body to heal :) *hugs*

3:11 am

grannyrose

and you, sprite? how's the BSL today? and how are you emotionally?

3:13 am

sprite

bsl was 10 this morning. 5.9 yesterday afternoon. Emotionally I am shaky. Very nervous about the intake Tuesday, also looking forward to it. The boy is behaving very well atm.

3:17 am

grannyrose

maybe he has had a bit of a fright himself? and i'm sure the BSL will drop as you start your days activities. hang in there, dear. you will win this time.

3:17 am

sprite

:) Thank you rose!

3:17 am

sprite

where is our little pug?

3:18 am

grannyrose

probably lurking.....here pugs, come and get your shmackos....

3:19 am

sprite

tried to find her on Daily Strength, that website she referred me to. Hope I have the right person, lol.

3:19 am

gapeach

I'm back. Sprite, I haven't seen Pug since the flip and I don't know whether she was on earlier grid....I didn't finish the last one. Hope she is OK.

3:20 am

sprite

wb peach! I hope so too.

3:22 am

sprite

I saw her yesterday morning, on the grid before this.

3:22 am

grannyrose

hey i have found a bonus with himself not here. i get to choose the tv programs i want to watch. small consolation really, would rather have him home with me. ;(

3:22 am

joso

hi all

3:23 am

sprite

hi joso! *hugs* How are you today?

3:23 am

grannyrose

hey ya joso

3:23 am

gapeach

Hey there, joso.

3:23 am

sprite

very small, rose, but still a consolation. And I am pretty sure, if you really want to watch something, you are perfectly able to do so even with Don present ;)

3:24 am

joso

hey peach, rose, sprite

3:24 am

grannyrose

yeah, i know, but am mindful that tv is one of his fave past-time. i try not to spoil that.

3:25 am

grannyrose

yes, joso, your harem is here...lol

3:25 am

joso

ah, the bond girls, joy bliss

3:25 am

sprite

same here for my love, rose. He relaxes best with TV on, headset with music on his ears, and computer on. I relax best in silence and without tv or music on. So I usually leave him in peace ;)

3:26 am

sprite

just our pug missing, joso

3:26 am

grannyrose

*chuckling*

3:27 am

grannyrose

and dear sprite is a perfect description of me also. no wonder we understand each other so well.

3:27 am

joso

thats odd, she is normally the most reliable member of this crew

3:27 am

sprite

:) Two pages from the sa4 book, you and me, rose

3:27 am

sprite

indeed, joso. Perhaps she managed to sleep really well this night?

3:28 am

grannyrose

i think she said yesterday she was going to be busy for a few days,.

3:28 am

joso

finnaly a cool night perhaps

3:28 am

ursh

could I please have a clue for the last me6/24 and 7

3:28 am

sprite

oh ok, then all is well. As long as she is just busy and otherwise well.

3:29 am

sprite

don't have them yet, sorry ursh

3:30 am

grannyrose

ursh, sounds like someone who interferes. me*icine + a ***k is a bird which sings beautifully

3:30 am

sprite

or me + face of clock, and plural

3:30 am

sprite

thanks, rose

3:31 am

grannyrose

and for goodness sake...my psycho canary has just burst into full song...problem it is pitch dark....i thought birds went to bed at sundown...lol

3:31 am

sprite

roflol, silly canary. I love their singing.

3:32 am

gapeach

Do you cover his cage, Rose?

3:32 am

grannyrose

brb, going to cover his cage...maybe he will get the message...

3:33 am

sprite

*sings: that's why the lady is a ....*

3:37 am

joso

3:38 am

sprite

3:38 am

gapeach

My "children" are demanding my full attention now. It is getting close to 5:00AM here.....guess I'll start getting ready to try to sleep. I really enjoy the chats we have. Blessings, y'all.

3:38 am

sprite

3:38 am

grannyrose

3:39 am

grannyrose

3:43 am

grannyrose

OMG, SPRITE....absolutely....

3:44 am

joso

reading too much ruru, from sesame st. to inuendo in one easy step ;)

3:44 am

sprite

*giggle* There's babble chog for you.

3:44 am

grannyrose

and you did it so well, joso

3:44 am

grannyrose

and you did it so well, joso

3:44 am

grannyrose

darn....

3:45 am

sprite

reminds me of Lickety. When he had to change the automatic output of his li4 program, he said he was adjusting his package. And I offered to do it for him.

3:45 am

joso

stivky key rose

3:46 am

joso

*sticky

3:46 am

grannyrose

nah, joso, i have twitchy muscles....every now and again fingers develop a life of their own. *sigh*

3:46 am

sprite

*hugs rose*

3:48 am

joso

what a pain in the butt, still rather have that than any brain problems, and we both know you are sharp as a tack... in a few ways

3:48 am

sprite

sharp but loving

3:52 am

joso

Hey rose, did not mean to offend, sorry if I have

3:53 am

Lizlin

Hi all :)

3:53 am

sprite

don't think you have to worry, joso, you didn't offend her.

3:54 am

sprite

hi Liz! :) *hug*

3:54 am

Lizlin

How're things going Sprite?

3:54 am

joso

hi liz, hows life

3:54 am

Lizlin

If you don't mind me asking?

3:55 am

Lizlin

Great thanks joso.

3:55 am

Lizlin

Hope all's good with you too.

3:55 am

sprite

relatively well, Liz. Boy is behaving, sugar is reacting to the medicines, and intake clinic is nearing. Am nervous but ok.
And how are things with you?

3:55 am

sprite

don't mind at all, I really appreciate how you guys care about me and mine.

3:56 am

joso

all is fine here liz

3:56 am

Lizlin

Day of Atonement now over - lucky for me, I don't find fasting difficult but it's always good when it's over!

3:56 am

sprite

well done, Liz. I think it is a beautiful rite.

3:56 am

Lizlin

Did the meeting go well last week, Sprite?

3:57 am

joso

nothing spices up food like a good apatite

3:57 am

Lizlin

And boy I ate a lot last night!

3:57 am

sprite

yes, it did. We managed to agree on some basic rules for the week to follow. Then, walking to the car, I tried to reach out to Tim and he reacted very well and open. And when he came home, he made up with his sister.

3:58 am

sprite

roflol Liz, I bet!

3:58 am

Lizlin

Making up with his sister is very good - after what happened but I'm also glad you were able to reach out to him.

3:58 am

sprite

yeah... we all try, we are all willing. I guess that means we will work this out in time.

3:59 am

Lizlin

Was so hungry - went to a communal "breaking the fast meal" but had to wait so long for the meal that I pigged out on bread!

3:59 am

Lizlin

I really hope so - keeping you in my thoughts!

3:59 am

sprite

*grin* just the smell, isn't it Liz... drives one crazy when hungry.

3:59 am

sprite

thank you :)

4:00 am

Lizlin

In London, many years ago, there was a bakery next door to the synagogue! That was a laugh!

4:00 am

sprite

omg that is evil. That smell is so irresistable.

4:00 am

joso

hey liz, do you know if jewish diabetics get a pass on fasting?

4:01 am

Lizlin

Human life always comes first - if you need to take medicine you do and there are guidelines for different medical conditions.

4:01 am

grannyrose

joso, you didn't offend me, mate. just had a phone call from a friend concerned re don and myself. she likes to chat...

4:01 am

Lizlin

E mailed you just now Rose.

4:02 am

grannyrose

thanx liz

4:02 am

sprite

already thought it was something like that. Real life interfering with your babbling.

4:02 am

Lizlin

Not enough e's in this grid!

4:02 am

joso

I thought it unlikely, was a light jab, and you normally just bite back

4:03 am

sprite

that is one thing I love about the jewish faith. The human factor is so strong. And the fact they recognise everyone has his/her own relation with G*d.

4:04 am

Lizlin

I like that too and the fact that I'm able to choose my own path!

4:04 am

joso

thx liz, idle curiosity scratched

4:04 am

Lizlin

np - always happy to answer questions - not that I'm an expert!

4:05 am

sprite

exactly! It feels so right to me. If you can't define G*d, how on earth can you define the road towards Him?

4:06 am

Lizlin

I try to be consistent in what I do and where I draw my line and if others don't like it, so be it!

4:06 am

joso

ok, not a rabbi, but I thought you would know a bit more about it than I, and i ras right. like being right, very fond of it

4:06 am

sprite

I like that, Liz

4:06 am

Lizlin

lol! Def not a rabbi!!!

4:06 am

sprite

joso, you are used to it, of course.

4:07 am

Lizlin

Just traditional in many ways!

4:07 am

joso

of course, a legend in my own mind

4:09 am

sprite

grin, reminds me of how my kids always tease me, about my books... they say their mom is worldfamous in our street.

4:10 am

joso

books, have you written books sprite

4:10 am

sprite

yes joso, two published. But no bestsellers, lol.

4:11 am

good news rose, more power to you

4:18 am

sprite

it is about a woman who is cast out of her community for being 'different'. She has had a traumatic childhood. She is taken out of her isolation by being abducted by another people, a species that can fly. They make use of their psychic powers: Earth power, Feel power and Mind power. She finds her place among them and makes them realise there is also something like Soul power.

sprite

as I said: and make sure you are wearing a helmet. And knee braces. Oh wait... you already are wearing one of those...

6:16 am

sprite

I think it is, rose. But I don't watch. Too noisy and way too scary with all those accidents.

6:17 am

grannyrose

maybe it would be a good way for you to learn how to distance yourself....just a thought...

6:18 am

sprite

lol

6:19 am

grannyrose

*giggle* besides the big bikes aren't as noisy as the other 2 races. those sound like angry mosquitoes.

6:39 am

rubyfoo

how goes it?

6:39 am

sprite

hiya ruby :)

6:40 am

rubyfoo

or even sprite*, sounds like part of a bicycle wheel

6:40 am

sprite

relatively well. Boy is behaving, which is a big help. Rather nervous for intake clinic.

6:40 am

sprite

*giggle*

6:40 am

rubyfoo

intake clinic for Tim?

6:41 am

sprite

no for me, for my eating disorder.

6:41 am

rubyfoo

how long do you have to stay?

6:42 am

sprite

is all still to be decided. I have an intake with one of their psychologists on Tuesday, then next week Monday an intake with their psychiatrist. And after that, we will decide which program is best for me.

6:43 am

sprite

if we decide on the resident program, it is 6 to 8 weeks. Weekends at home.

6:43 am

BzznBea

What type of eating disorder do you have, sprite?

6:43 am

rubyfoo

wow! It sounds like a great possibility

6:43 am

rubyfoo

hello bzzn

6:44 am

sprite

hi Bea. I have a combination of binge eating and not eating at all.

6:44 am

BzznBea

Morning, all.

6:44 am

BzznBea

My best to you, sprite. Tough situation.

6:45 am

sprite

thanks Bea. Yeah, it is a battle. But now with all the health issues I have to face it. And I think I am ready. Done enough preparation :)

6:45 am

sprite

thank you!

6:45 am

rubyfoo

I'll bet your sugar will go waaaaay down!

6:46 am

sprite

when I learn to eat better and lose weight? Yes, I think so too. We all hope so.

6:47 am

sprite

cholestorol as well. And my liver function too. All will benefit. All that needs to be done is for me to face the de5s that are hidden beneath the eating disorder.

6:48 am

sprite

phantom fish today: tilapia

6:51 am

grannyrose

and you will, darling. with some help from your friends...but we must remember not to give you advice once you have started therapy. and you must be strong in resisting unsolicited advice. it waters down your counselling.

6:51 am

rubyfoo

hello rosie

6:52 am

sprite

you are absolutely right. I will. Too many cooks in the kitchen spoil the dish, as we dutchies say.

6:52 am

grannyrose

hey ruby...are you keeping well?

6:52 am

sprite

and can't have more than one captain on a ship.

6:53 am

grannyrose

6:55 am

grannyrose

sprite, just let me know when you start therapy in earnest. i will back you to the hilt...and try to pull others into line.

6:56 am

sprite

thanks rose! I will. I have decided, if I am allowed on the resident program, I will buy myself a keyboard for my tablet so I can babble and email from there. I hope they have wifi.

6:56 am

grannyrose

OKAY!!!! track clearing of excess people. motoGP about to start

6:56 am

9:14 am

RoundBarn

no I just used the clue if it's the one starting with i. I could go look up. It's her first question to the vet--rumen, obosum, what are the other two

9:14 am

rastapopolous

That one irritates me, because the plural is wrong. It's a spanish word.

9:15 am

rastapopolous

Oh, no, not the il4. We have those, not just ruminants.

9:15 am

rastapopolous

Don't go listing them all! You'll end up in the PB

Uneaixoise

11:51 am

flosey

that's why she was sent there

11:51 am

rururocks

well.. many revelers were wearing skimpy clothing.. so waxing is a must

11:51 am

flosey

11:54 am

rururocks

i'm kidding flosey]

11:55 am

rururocks

never take me seriously

11:55 am

rururocks

:D

11:55 am

flosey

wondered just what kind of grandfather you had

11:55 am

flosey

oh true ru, with a grain of salt

11:55 am

rururocks

my mom's father was a very nice man.. my father's father was very cold and unfriendly

11:56 am

rururocks

even with us grendkids

11:56 am

flosey

ah, too bad, grandfathers are supposed to be superhuman to kids

11:57 am

rururocks

he died pretty young too..

11:57 am

flosey

my grand (mom's side) was a Baptist Minister, he use to read me Uncle Wiggly from the daily news

11:58 am

rururocks

hmm no religion in our household

11:59 am

flosey

it was one sided in our house - thus, Dad was my saving grace when I left the church

12:00 pm

rururocks

why did you leave the church if you don't mind me asking

12:00 pm

flosey

'think for yourself' etc

12:01 pm

rururocks

ah

12:01 pm

rururocks

yes... I can see that

12:01 pm

flosey

because I couldn't accept all the ridiculous 'extras' as in no dancing, movies , makeup, etc some of which has changed and become a little more updated

12:02 pm

rururocks

I've always been sort of anti -religious.. although my grandmother who I loved was very "christian" and I tolerated that from her

12:02 pm

BzznBea

Being a Baptist isn't easy.

12:02 pm

rururocks

yeah.. you might as well live with a burka flosey :D

12:02 pm

flosey

was asked to take a sunday school class of 13 year old girls, they ask questions, I said I couldn't give them the answers that I would be expected to give

12:03 pm

flosey

it was funny, we had a visiting young minister and his wife, from Texas - she wore plenty of makeup - this changed that a bit for our young ladies

12:04 pm

flosey

Bea, I don't understand why anyone's true faith should be difficult

12:04 pm

BzznBea

Exactly.

12:06 pm

rururocks

found a really weird a by accident

12:06 pm

flosey

I think, sometimes they like to feel persecuted

12:06 pm

hurshy

it is both far easier and far more difficult than avoiding dancing and makeup.

12:07 pm

cgypsy

good morning everyone

12:07 pm

flosey

I always thought that it was just plain silliness, hurshy

12:07 pm

flosey

hy gypsy

12:08 pm

cgypsy

flos :)

12:08 pm

MollyL

<--Doesn't get what dancing and make up have to do with faith

12:08 pm

flosey

nor did I, Molly

12:09 pm

BzznBea

Although, some of the dancing done these days are pretty "sexual".

12:09 pm

hurshy

the good news of Christianity is that God demands nothing of us to be forgiven. he has done it all. and yet, he then demands that we surrender to him our very selves, that we allow him to remake us into his perfection, that we let him take our selfishness and greed and pride and work them out of us slowly over our whole lifetimes, like working the air bubbles out of dough...

12:10 pm

MollyL

I don't think God "demands" anything of us.

12:10 pm

rururocks

Hmmm

12:10 pm

rururocks

I wonder what I have to be forgiven for .. i'm just living

12:10 pm

flosey

I agree with you there (somewhat, no demands) hurshy, but don't believe you have to belong to any organized religion

12:11 pm

hurshy

if you have nothing that you have ever done that you are ashamed of, ruru, i salute you.

12:11 pm

BzznBea

I feel that my religion is between me and God.

12:12 pm

flosey

absolutely, Bea

12:12 pm

MollyL

I agree, Bea

12:12 pm

rururocks

I didn't say ashamed of.. I just don't understand the forgiven concept of the church

12:13 pm

flosey

- or unforgiven! shunned, or frowned upon

12:14 pm

hurshy

it's pretty simple. you have a parent, you have a kid. the kid disobeys, the parent forgives. we've all seen that happen, right? well, whatever you have that you are ashamed of, that's your disobedience. God's your parent.

12:14 pm

negativeneil

Morning ru.

12:14 pm

MollyL

I'm not real big on the concept of shame.

12:15 pm

rururocks

good morning neil

12:15 pm

hurshy

i mean, theologically it's much more complex than that, but for a culture that doesn't understand sin - that's a basic picture that you can start with.

12:15 pm

hurshy

if you don't like shame, regret, sorrow? there must be SOMETHING that you look back on and are displeased with that you have done!

12:15 pm

rururocks

that's the grey area for me hurshy.. I have a greater range of acceptance of sin :D

12:16 pm

negativeneil

That requires a conscience, hurshy.

12:16 pm

negativeneil

Not everyone has one.

12:16 pm

rururocks

ding ding ding

12:17 pm

rururocks

dang d's are killing me

12:17 pm

flosey

then it's dang dang dang

12:17 pm

BzznBea

Muddling through them myself,m ru.

12:18 pm

flosey

hmmm, missing a lot of d's myself

12:18 pm

hurshy

i guess i'm not sure how to explain it then because for me, well, i do have a pretty good sense of my own imperfections.

12:18 pm

rururocks

you did fine hursh...

12:18 pm

rururocks

I am not a religious sort of person

12:19 pm

rururocks

I respect what many people find in church.. but also despise a lot of the terrible things that churches do... ie recent Catholic church discretions

12:19 pm

MollyL

I guess it all depends on your perception of your higher power. As a just and loving parent type, or a shame dispensing parent type.

12:19 pm

hurshy

well, i despise those too.

12:20 pm

hurshy

but that is the thing molly, that is the thing, yeah, no, the power of the cross is to FREE us from all the guilt and shame!

12:21 pm

hurshy

and to be able to MAKE us into new people

12:21 pm

negativeneil

Yes, ru. But that doesn't happen in all churches... not that I'm religious by any means either. And of course, not raised Christian in any case.

12:22 pm

hurshy

sorry, i get so excited when i think about what Christ really does! it's so unfortunate that people have miscommunicated it in so many ways.

12:23 pm

flosey

or indiscretions, ru

12:23 pm

BzznBea

Don't remember ever having de6/36 in the grid.

12:34 pm

BzznBea

I've got to start baking and cooking for the beach trip, but still undecided as to what to make.

12:35 pm

stidgmere

Do you have youngsters or teenagers for the beach trip. It changes the menu somewhat.

12:36 pm

BzznBea

Yes, we have young ones.

12:37 pm

stidgmere

I always associate hot dogs and relish with the beach along with yellow mustard. You can tell we were not eating too high on the hog but my it tasted so good in the salt air.

crosshair

1:24 pm

bichon

I have no way to contact him or how long it'll be til his turn. He did call me and ask me to take the train down to NYC and bring him his meds for 4 days!. No way

That's my criticism of the show. There should be some small prize for those folks who get into the money chair. Maybe a hundred bucks

5:48 pm

5:49 pm

No, he starts at zero.

5:49 pm

5:53 pm

During the 1920â€™s, the Pa**** gained in popularity as the new â€œswing jazzâ€ and â€œflapperâ€ style of dancing became fashionable.

The Pa**** Royale is currently enjoying a renaissance. In 2005 the 86 year old Pa**** Royale underwent a restoration.

After the renovation, the Pa**** Royale Ballroom is now a world class facility.

Getting into a kayak is awkward

7:47 pm

Minveryork

I have co4/6 to post a story la4/5n with clues for my de 4/5 Babble friends. The incident la 4/4 week w/Nicole Kidman is just reminder how the me5/14 can get out of hand.This happened on the ea4/4 coast. Nicole Kidman was al5/12ed when a man on a bike, riding too fa 4/7, sl4/5med right into her. The biker also pretended to be al 4/4med by the incident and sa 4/5 his breaks did not work which was a very la 4/5 excuse. Kidman was lucky not to fall & hit her head and go into a co 4/5. Instead, her pa 4/5 le 4/5t to her side and helped her. Her first id4/5 was to press charges.I believe all the fa4/8 in the world doesn't mean actors deserve to be stalked by the paparazzi.They can cause quite a st4/4.At times they st 5/12 the property of actors. Or they ta4/4gate them in their cars. Or they will tr 5/12 insults with actors. Some actors have sued&gone to tr5/10 over some incidences. Husband wants to play Fa 4/8ville now. I'll give him the co4/6uter so he does not go into a tir 5/12. I hope that you've ma 4/6 sense of my clues and found more words to add to Lickety's li 4/4. I did not ed 4/5 story so there may be some mistakes. I am going to da4/5 on into the bedroom and watch the Wesley Snipes film De 4/5lition Man.I will be back later to help clue and chat. Goodbye

true. For me, I can teach for three hours, almost no matter what... so most days I think I won't have to call in sick. BUT. I have to be gone for a day in October (orientation stuff at the district), so I have to get things as "normal" in routine as possible before then.
