12:32 am

negativeneil

I wouldn't mind one though.

12:33 am

ARB

Erev tov = good evening. Boker tov = Good morning. I'm not sure what mala tov is good for

12:33 am

jillibus

hello neil

12:33 am

Erda

Hi Neil

12:36 am

ARB

Of course you realize, living where I do, I am more concerned about violent molotov cocktails than about those than can be drunk

12:57 am

negativeneil

Hi ursh, cybernan.

12:57 am

negativeneil

I am missing a "B" word and 2 "O" words.

12:57 am

ARB

It's often spelt che 6 and 7 -- it's the gutteral sound. It literally means room, but it is the word for the classroom where children learn the "aleph bet"

12:57 am

cybernan

a clue for we gentiles, please?

12:58 am

negativeneil

That I just can't figure out for trying. They will probably bee too obvious or something.

12:58 am

negativeneil

I got those when you first gave the stats for the 3 Hebrew words, Arb... and thanks again. ;)

12:59 am

cybernan

if that's a clue for the he 5-6, arb - still no wiser

1:00 am

negativeneil

Rhymes with the Pesach [Passover] meal, cybernan.

1:00 am

ARB

Nan, think of the word for a newspaper term and remove the a from that word

1:01 am

cybernan

ty arb

1:02 am

ARB

And now you know two more Hebrew words!

2:09 am

joso

hi all

2:10 am

puglet

hey there Joso

2:11 am

joso

starting to think I was all alone here, how's life been treating you pug?

2:12 am

puglet

no complaints and you

2:12 am

joso

I am well

2:13 am

puglet

see the sleep thing didnt last long-lol

2:15 am

joso

Hey, I'm sorry if I put you on the spot the other day when i volunteered you to give sprite a recipe. I had what I thought was a good Idea and just sort of blurted it out, should have thought for a mo before I did.

2:16 am

puglet

no problem. I thought it was a good ideal too--so thanks

2:16 am

joso

good, glad I didn't stick my foot in it.

2:17 am

puglet

you got your fws on this

2:17 am

joso

sleep is sort of sticking, will head to bed sometime in the next hour, rather than at 6 or 7

2:18 am

joso

not, just finished all the 4 letter words so far

2:18 am

puglet

Ive been up and down---one of those nights

2:19 am

joso

does that help you avoid the headaches?

2:20 am

puglet

it does but these up every hour thing makes the day long

2:21 am

joso

I would think a 22 hour day long in itself

2:23 am

puglet

unless I can get a couple hours of sleep, Iam drained by late afternoon

2:24 am

joso

have you asked a doctor about your headaches?

2:25 am

puglet

no or on the sleeplessness either--I guess I should but I dont want to rely on pills to sleep if I can

2:27 am

joso

it seems weird enough to be concerned about, you don't have to take pills even if a doc recommends.

2:29 am

puglet

I thought that working the night shift for many years was the cause but that should of done passed by now I would think--its been 4 or 5 years since I worked them

2:34 am

joso

well it's your life, but if it was me I'd ask, by now it's not urgent, but at your next doc visit seems worth doing

2:35 am

puglet

thank you for your concern and I will follow up on that

2:37 am

joso

goood

2:37 am

joso

enjoying the cooler weather

2:38 am

puglet

Iam at a standstill on this grid so I guess Iam going to have to go to lickety-----------you know it! :)

2:39 am

grannyrose

g'day pugs, joso

2:40 am

joso

hey gran, glad to see you, how was the doc?

2:40 am

puglet

GOOD MORNING! ROSE hugs to you and how is that house of sickness? lol

2:41 am

puglet

and I bet you got your fws too, huh?

2:41 am

grannyrose

okay, thanx. that problem i mentioned in my email? has resolved. just left with a slightly torn muscle in my right side, back to work next week.

2:42 am

puglet

full time?

2:43 am

joso

glad of that, well not the torn muscle.

2:44 am

joso

the work relief thing still moving like molassas

2:47 am

puglet

did we lose her?

2:48 am

joso

I guess

2:49 am

puglet

I was having trouble with babble earlier

2:49 am

flosey

hi folks, can't sleep so might as well see if I can find a few more words

2:50 am

puglet

I got the same problem Flosey

2:50 am

flosey

frustrating eh!

2:50 am

joso

hi flosey

2:50 am

puglet

if nothing else you can chat with us-lol

2:50 am

puglet

yes it is

2:50 am

flosey

and have to be up early tomorrow, carpet bowling starts up again for the season

2:50 am

flosey

hi joso

2:51 am

grannyrose

sorry, SIL on phone, seems things are catching up with her...lol...starting to stress.

2:51 am

joso

hehehehe

2:51 am

flosey

hi rose

2:51 am

puglet

imagin that--lol

2:51 am

flosey

poor dear, is she feeling guilty?

2:52 am

joso

did you sympathise, or I told you so?

2:52 am

grannyrose

hey flosey, and joso, that is one wicked laugh, sport.

2:52 am

grannyrose

50-50. just reiterated what i have always said about hidden sugars etc, etc

2:53 am

joso

I just enjoy karma strikes

2:53 am

puglet

hes training for halloween--lol

2:53 am

flosey

lol rose, time she stepped in and helped out

2:53 am

puglet

so is MIL still in the hospital then

2:54 am

grannyrose

yeah,,,when oneself is not on the receiving end. * giggle *

2:55 am

grannyrose

yup, pugs. they have decided she has a urinary tract infection, as well as cellulitis in her right leg, and now, surprise, surprise....a chest infection. mind you, i think maybe the DIL has panicked a tad..

2:56 am

puglet

well I think she should be some what

2:56 am

grannyrose

she just isn't used to mother macs chesty coughing and panting. she has no idea just hpw frail the mother has become.

2:57 am

puglet

at her age its hard for her body to fight off all those things

2:58 am

flosey

how old is MIL?

2:58 am

joso

Well I hope she wethers it, that would be too much kharma

2:58 am

grannyrose

we have a plan in place for whenever mother's chest starts to play up. apparently she came home from her out-patient appointment, took the prednisolone at about 2pm, and DIL panicked because they didn't work within 6 hours. * rolls eyes *

2:59 am

grannyrose

flosey, the darling is 94

3:01 am

flosey

does DIL have any idea what's happening? Is she aware that MIL is so sick?

3:01 am

grannyrose

lolol...she does now....

3:01 am

flosey

and this is HER Mother!!

3:02 am

grannyrose

yup. mind you, SIL has stopped saying that her mother isn't demanding, or doesn't require a lot of care.

3:03 am

grannyrose

give her her due, mother mac wouldn't live with her.

3:03 am

flosey

oh my, now that says a lot right there

3:04 am

grannyrose

oh, yeah...she has a vicious temper and tongue.

3:05 am

joso

It doesn't seem like she has any ill will toward her mom, she is running around now and apparently very worried, just didn't believe the diet rose mapped out was important, until now.

3:05 am

flosey

not exactly nursing material then

3:05 am

flosey

not exactly nursing material then,

3:06 am

flosey

excuse the duplicate - it didn't move when I hit enter

3:06 am

puglet

well I hope MIL can pull through this. If not then thats alot of guilt to carry, or I would think

3:06 am

joso

what's DH's reaction to all this?

3:07 am

grannyrose

the trouble is whenever the mothe goes to her social group, they stuff her full of sugary foods. and SIL says the hospital are serving her stuff like apple crumble, etc.

3:07 am

joso

aside from the occasional cough

3:07 am

grannyrose

hate to say it joso, but he's dumped it all on me to handle. won't even talk to his sister.

3:08 am

puglet

thats alot of stress for you on top of all the other stuff going on

3:08 am

flosey

well rose, at least he cares - he probably knows how mother would be treated

3:09 am

joso

hmmm, does he and SIL have a history, so to speak

3:12 am

grannyrose

of course they do...who do you think gave her the nickname "fang" ?

3:13 am

flosey

ouch, that's not a nice nickname

3:14 am

joso

dumping it all on you is not fair, but I'm liking DH more and more on some other levels

3:15 am

grannyrose

oh for goodness sake...watching 'restoration home' (brit show ) the architect is wading through the overgrown garden...wearing.....wait for it.....WHITE jeans

3:15 am

grannyrose

it's okay, friends, i have broad shoulders...

3:16 am

puglet

yeah and in a few years you are going to be humped over from the burdon of it all

3:17 am

grannyrose

well humped anyway...* evil grin *

3:17 am

flosey

rose, you rascal

3:18 am

grannyrose

himself just said he would like something warm on his chest...he suggested me

3:18 am

puglet

thats too much imfo

3:18 am

joso

seems to be on the mend then

3:18 am

grannyrose

ya better believe it pilgrim...* said in best john wayne twang*

3:19 am

grannyrose

one can only hope, joso....miss him terribly....but as he says, i'm a very bad shot..

3:20 am

flosey

let's hope hospital will keep MIL in for a while

3:20 am

grannyrose

hoo yeah...have plans....

3:21 am

joso

and you too I suppose, as you are to return to work, and taking up chest warming duties. glad things are moving in the right direction, if not there yet

3:21 am

grannyrose

have made up my mind, she is definitely not coming home here until himself is 100%

3:21 am

puglet

seem like since the Doctor gave her the okay shes going wild with it

3:22 am

flosey

good for you rose, now just hang tight and stick to it

3:22 am

puglet

He probally needs the break too

3:22 am

grannyrose

he needs to recover...period

3:23 am

joso

and you must raod test him thoroughly to be sure he is 100%

3:23 am

grannyrose

oh, absolutely, joso.

3:24 am

flosey

which he probably will not do with Mother to be concerned about

3:25 am

grannyrose

exactly...flosey. i must be firm with him this time...and with the hospital. i cannot have the both of them here, not up to their full potential.

3:26 am

flosey

that would make 3 of you

3:26 am

flosey

needing someone else to help out

3:26 am

puglet

rose are you going back to work full time and to your regular job or still have to do desk duty

3:26 am

joso

well i am heading to bed, so i can try to get up while some sun still in the sky, good night all, have good days or nights whatever is appropriate.

3:27 am

grannyrose

don't forget my own surgery is in the offing. btw, have heard nothing on that score. the last i heard, the insurance company was trying to pin my fall on the fact i have had a total knee replacement. let them try it!!!

3:27 am

puglet

3:27 am

flosey

hello and bye little pugs

3:43 am

rubyfoo

{{rosie}} you have too much on your plate, as usual

3:44 am

grannyrose

it's a big plate, dear

3:44 am

rubyfoo

I didn't realize that Don wasn't over his "man flu"

3:45 am

grannyrose

he just needs time, ruby. and i'm gonna make sure he gets it. am tired of mother mac being discharged too soon.

3:46 am

grannyrose

apparently, the cough is quite normal post-pneumonia.

3:46 am

rubyfoo

(didn't know about his pneumonia)

3:47 am

grannyrose

yeah, he has had viral pneumonia, complicated by his asthma. :(

3:48 am

grannyrose

he was admitted to hospital. i managed to stay out. had to go to hospital twice/day, tending to his needs.

3:49 am

rubyfoo

when DH had pneumonia, twice in 6 months, it was bacterial, so easy to cure

3:55 am

grannyrose

with viral, antibiotics are anly a prophylactic. you just have to treat the cough. frustrating, to say the least

3:56 am

rubyfoo

it sounds like the Mother Mac situation is wearing you both ut

3:58 am

grannyrose

nah, SIL is handling it this time...

3:58 am

rubyfoo

out*

3:59 am

It sounds like everybody takes advantage of Ro** the Rock!

4:02 am

grannyrose

ruby, i am fine. had another episode of tears this AM. gosh i hate that almost as much as men do...okay now...

4:03 am

rubyfoo

Mayne tears are good for you; they release endorphins....

4:04 am

grannyrose

ruby, emailed you

4:05 am

rubyfoo

I' read it before lunch

4:05 am

grannyrose

just sent you another

4:06 am

ackkk. the dreaded finger twitch

4:13 am

rubyfoo

I'm taking a risk; one of my lex partners is travelling to Italy from the Dordogne where she has a second house and asked if she could "stop by". I said yes, but only know her from chatting during our games.

4:13 am

rubyfoo

As look as we keep thse twitchy fingers away from our weapons....

4:14 am

rubyfoo

long, not look....

4:16 am

grannyrose

ruby, i'm sure she will be an amazing person to meet.i have met babblers from sydney and new zealand. all were joyful experiences.

4:16 am

rubyfoo

I think tears, like anger, need to be released occasionally

4:17 am

rubyfoo

I've already prepared her for the fact that DH is not sociable

4:17 am

grannyrose

thanx, dear. i appreciate what you say.

4:18 am

grannyrose

yeah, understand...but think on sprite's visit

4:18 am

rubyfoo

I''m probably the worst person to give advice on that subject as I almost never express anger

4:18 am

rubyfoo

That's true, Sprite is an angel

4:19 am

rubyfoo

do you have stats for the 9?

4:19 am

grannyrose

lolol.ol, oh ruby...i do so love you...

4:29 am

4:29 am

grannyrose

i feel so helpless, not able to help DH when he has these coughing fits. * sigh *

4:29 am

rubyfoo

I'm the same -- when the frustration builds up, internalizing it causes tears

4:30 am

grannyrose

An elderly couple were walking about the streets of their home, Moscow. They each feel drops of moisture on their faces. The man says that it is snowing, but his wife is convinced that it's raining. Finally, they see General Rudolph walking by, and the woman calls him over to settle the dispute. The general says it's definitely rain. The man doesn't believe him. Sighing, his wife tells him, "Rudolph the Red knows rain, dear."

The epitome of my knowledge is realizing I know even less than what at times I arrogantly profess to know.

â€œWhere is the wisdom we have lost in knowledge? Where is the knowledge we have lost in information?â€ - T. S. Eliot. Knowledge is gathered from learning and education while most say that wisdom is gathered from day to day experiences and is a state of being wise. Knowledge is merely having clarity of facts and truths while wisdom is the practical ability to make consistently good decisions in life.

5:44 pm

6:16 pm

ChrissieDee

I loved Boston Legal with him and Will Shatner

6:16 pm

MollyL

I like Blair Underwood. But I saw about ten minutes of the new Ironside and was not impressed. I was not impressed with Sleepy Hollow either. I don't think either one will make it.

6:17 pm

periwinkle

I did too, Chrissie. he has gained some weight and has less hair in this series but I don't care

6:17 pm

MollyL

I'm not sure I like the premise of Blacklst.

6:18 pm

periwinkle

what is the premise?

6:20 pm

MollyL

He is a criminal mastermind who agrees to help the FBI catch a killer, but he will only talk to a rookie female profiler. Sounds like a Silence Of The Lambs rip off.

6:20 pm

periwinkle

oh, I did not know that

6:20 pm

periwinkle

rats, I will give it a shot tho

6:27 pm

MollyL

It could turn out to be good, you never know.
