flosey

good thanks Dianne, and you?

1:21 am

puglet

greetings friends

1:21 am

Dianne

No so good. Got back to Hong Kong Monday night and got sick as can be - I think it was food poisoning - I felt like something out of the Exorcist. Better now but not great.

1:21 am

flosey

hi there pugs, good to see you

1:21 am

Lizlin

Hi Pugs - hope all's well with you.

1:22 am

Dianne

Hi Pugs

1:22 am

Lizlin

Poor thing, Dianne - feel better very soon.

1:22 am

flosey

oh Dianne, sorry, is there anything worse, yuk

1:22 am

puglet

Hi flosey and Liz--I am feeling very well, thank you

1:22 am

Dianne

Thanks

1:22 am

flosey

hope you're soon over it

1:22 am

puglet

Hi Dianne, hope you get feeling better too

1:23 am

Dianne

I was worried that I had gained weight on the trip - no worries now !

1:23 am

flosey

but not a nice way to lose

1:24 am

Lizlin

Bit drastic!

1:24 am

puglet

yucky way to lose weight though

1:24 am

Dianne

Well I'll look at is as the silver lining.

1:25 am

flosey

once you're over it, you can appreciate the weight loss

1:25 am

puglet

hows Liz and flosey

1:25 am

flosey

very good, thanks pugs

1:26 am

Lizlin

fine here, thanks.

1:26 am

Dianne

We got in kind of late in teh evenign and didn't unpack - when I went to bed I started shivering terribly so my husband opened the nearest suitcase and just start piling on jacket over the covers unitl I finally got arm

1:27 am

flosey

such a miserable feeling, so glad you're over it

1:28 am

Dianne

Me too flosey

1:40 am

grannyrose

cooee, and g'day from me

1:41 am

flosey

hi there rose

1:41 am

flosey

and a good day to you too

1:41 am

Lizlin

Hi Rose - hope you are feeling well today

1:41 am

puglet

Hugs and Hi and congrats Rose

1:41 am

Dianne

Hi Rose

1:41 am

grannyrose

hey flosey. have you had a good day, hun? and liz, girl, how are you? and as always...{{hugs}} for miz pugs

1:43 am

grannyrose

i am hunky dory. down to 2 strong pain meds...surgeon says he doesn't need tosee me except when i am recovering his patients, don has a stick of TNT up his butt, he's flying around doing all sorts of stuff.

1:43 am

flosey

yes rose, a very good one - saw dr. this morning and will check back in couple of weeks but had been worried about head having spinning feelings

1:44 am

flosey

ah rose, you make me laugh, poor don

1:44 am

grannyrose

ugh, flosey. is it your middle ear? or your antihypertensives?

1:45 am

flosey

that's what I was afraid of because one ear was bothersome - buzzing

1:45 am

grannyrose

flosey, it's a delight to see. just like when we were first married pre-MIL

1:45 am

flosey

have tinitis anyway

1:45 am

flosey

I had a MIL about like yours rose

1:46 am

flosey

I wouldn't move to this island until she was no longer here

1:46 am

grannyrose

th4, you know what i mean, flosey.

1:46 am

flosey

for sure

1:48 am

grannyrose

anyway, the bad news is that the solicitor has frightened the beejesus out of my brother. has told him if another beneficiary shows up before 6 months is up, and he has already divided up the estate between us, he, my brother will be responsible for finding their share of the estate.

1:49 am

flosey

does anyone have a clue for hi8?

1:49 am

Lizlin

Sorry Flosey :(

1:49 am

Lizlin

That's a pain, Rose. Are there likely to be more, Rose?

1:49 am

flosey

wow Rose, is it possible that there could be another ?

1:49 am

grannyrose

of course, that is true. but there are no other beneficiaries, apart from us siblings. and the solicitor has had him transfer all the monies into his, the solicitor's account.

1:50 am

puglet

yesterday, we had thunderstorm, heavy rain, winter howling winds and snow and then the temps went from 50 to 15 all in one day--lol

1:50 am

flosey

wow, what a crazy mixed up day, pugs

1:50 am

Lizlin

So extreme, Pugs.

1:51 am

grannyrose

hi8, hi*, stashed away from sight + plural of my name

1:51 am

puglet

like all four seasons in one day--lol

1:51 am

Lizlin

Thank you - wouldn't have found that in a million years!

1:51 am

grannyrose

hey pugs, that's what you get here in melbourne. come on over, you'll feel right at home...lol

1:52 am

grannyrose

now change the last vowel for other hi8

1:52 am

flosey

MW to the rescue - strange words,

1:52 am

Lizlin

Thanks again :)

1:52 am

puglet

ty Rose

1:52 am

flosey

ah, didn't see you clue rose, used mw

1:53 am

Lizlin

BBL

1:53 am

grannyrose

so the upshot is, if my bro doesn't divvie up the estate now, i can't retire until auguat...* really sad face*

1:53 am

puglet

bye Liz

1:54 am

flosey

excessive sweat!!!

1:54 am

grannyrose

see ya, liz

1:54 am

puglet

yuck Rose

1:54 am

flosey

bye Liz

1:55 am

flosey

can you contact the Solicitor to see what's holding things up?

1:55 am

grannyrose

well it will be mid-july before i can think about it anyway. so not too long after that. but it puts paid to the UK in september. *sigh*

1:56 am

flosey

ah, but you will have UK to look forward to

1:56 am

grannyrose

flosey, i think he just wants to play with our money, make himself an easy few thousands of dollars.

1:56 am

puglet

well theres not much you can do about it but wait it out

1:57 am

bfdeele

hello everyone. Rose who gets the interest the money earns while in his account and how do you get access to that account? Why don't you talk with another attorney.

1:57 am

grannyrose

yup, pugs. and that's just what will happen. honestly, my bro is so up in the clouds. don had a good chat with him last night, and was a little more matter-of-fact than the solicitor.

1:58 am

flosey

sounds like good advice mfd

1:58 am

puglet

Hi bf

1:58 am

bfdeele

hi pugs

1:58 am

puglet

whats your other brothers think about it

1:59 am

grannyrose

my point exactly, bfdeele. am gonna talk to my little bro and give him the facts of life. i don't want that money any where that weasel. ( apologies to any solitors in hearing)

2:00 am

grannyrose

i will probably send out a family email, inviting them in to chat about it.

2:00 am

flosey

sounds strange that he control - seems to me the lawyer should control it until assurred of no other siblings or ?

2:01 am

grannyrose

flosey, the money is in the SOLICITOR'S account. where he can manipulate it, invest it, whatever he likes.

2:01 am

flosey

oh, think I have it mixed up, so not your bro who has the money - sorry rose, my mistake

2:02 am

bfdeele

I am really not disagreeing with you, flosey, but why should the money be in the solicitor's account when he is not the executor of the will?

2:02 am

flosey

are you sure the solicitor can do that? legally?

2:02 am

grannyrose

and that's what makes me uncomfortable. i don't know him from adam.

2:03 am

flosey

but you do know the total amount? I hope, since you don't seem to know if he is trustworthy?

2:03 am

flosey

but you do know the total amount? I hope, since you don't seem to know if he is trustworthy?

2:03 am

bfdeele

Also, the solicitor should have to make an accounting to the exector and heirs as to what he is doing with the money. I would get another solicitor and sue the one who took the money.

2:04 am

flosey

think there should be someone you could ask about it

2:04 am

flosey

agree bfd, ask a solicitor you know you can trust

2:04 am

grannyrose

flosey, there are quite a few loop-holes in our laws. we read of them being abused all the time. yes we know what the amount is...but why should the solicitor be getiting the monies from interest earned when the money should be in a trust account in the family name

2:05 am

flosey

I don't understand that rose, any money gained should stay with the family estate

2:05 am

grannyrose

or an impartial solicitor. now that's a thought. a solicitor provided by the government service...hmmm

2:05 am

bfdeele

Do you know of anyone else who had a sizeable amount of money to distribute by the executor where a solicitor took the money. And I agree with you grannyrose, This sounds so bad to me.

2:07 am

grannyrose

flosey, the money is in the solicitor's account, in HIS name. and the more i think about it, the scareder i get.

2:07 am

flosey

sounds fishy to me rose, the lawyer is holding out in case there are other heirs - surely all heirs would have been mentioned in a will?

2:08 am

bfdeele

Pugs, we have had your weather today. The temp dropped over fifteen degrees in two hours and we have wind snow and rain. and tomorrow it will be only about twenty degrees. what a mess. will spring ever get here?

2:08 am

grannyrose

exactly, flosey. we are talking about my mother, brought up by a victorian disciplinarian. don't think she strayed from the nest.

2:09 am

puglet

Iam wondering the same thing bf--lol

2:09 am

grannyrose

it is my mother's estate, not mother and dad's. my mother would have had to have had other kids...lol...like that happened.

2:10 am

bfdeele

What other heirs could there be? Maybe all of you could go see the solicitor as a group and present your questions and concerns to him and see what he says. He sounds as if he thinks you all are dumb bunnies and can't see what he is doing. Also consider contacting the tv stations who do investigating news stories. I would find out all I could about this solicitor. Just does not sound right.

2:12 am

grannyrose

thanx bfd. i will do just that. i feel it's very sneaky. he is playing on my brother's total innocence of the ways of the world.

2:13 am

flosey

good advice bfd

2:15 am

bfdeele

so unfair to think that this is the last gift your Mother is giving to her children and this s.o.b. is taking advantage of the situation. I would go to his office every day and sit in his waiting room and warn people about how unethical he is and dare him to throw me out. Or walk up and down in front of his office with a sign saying what a crook he is. what a crock of s..;

2:16 am

bfdeele

Am now getting down off my soapbox and finishing my word list. Hope everyone is well and warm or cool and having a good day.

2:17 am

flosey

he may threaten to call police - ha, let him and he won't want that hassle going on in his waiting room

2:17 am

puglet

hope you are the same bf

2:18 am

flosey

but very good advice bfd

2:19 am

grannyrose

again thanx, bfd. it's nice to have how i feel validated, and not poo-pooed.

2:20 am

flosey

down to 86 words but now must get to bed, goodnight all

2:20 am

puglet

night Flosey, take care

2:20 am

grannyrose

you are a real stayer, flosey. thanx for your input also. i hope you sleep well.

2:21 am

flosey

agree rose, and pugs - and bfd for the great advice

2:21 am

flosey

goodnight all

2:21 am

bfdeele

pugs do you plant a vegetable garden in the spring? I used to. Grew up in the country in the middle of nowhere in the Midwest and we grew veggies, and would dress out chickens for the freezer and fished for catfish and froze those also. Wish I could do that again. Mighty fine eating.

2:22 am

bfdeele

goodnight flosey.

2:22 am

puglet

hubby does, I dont mess with it ---its his thing

2:23 am

grannyrose

at least he's good for something, pugs

2:23 am

bfdeele

I was just typing that rose

2:24 am

puglet

guess so but hes selfesh with the stuff

2:24 am

bfdeele

what does he do with it?]

2:25 am

puglet

we got 3 40lb bags of potatoes from fall and instead of letting me give friends and family some, they sit rotting

2:25 am

puglet

I just dont understand that at all

2:26 am

puglet

we use most of it

2:26 am

grannyrose

oh, for goodness sake, what an ar******!!

2:26 am

bfdeele

He is really going to have a day of reckoning, isn't he?]

2:27 am

puglet

I would think

2:28 am

bfdeele

Hang in there pugs. we are all praying for you. I have friends in two prayer circles and they are praying for you and your sister everyday. There will be better days.

2:29 am

puglet

Iam not like that, I rather someone get some use from the stuff---but to keep from having a battle I just throw my hands up and let him take care of it all

2:30 am

puglet

thank you bf, thats very nice of you and your friends

2:30 am

bfdeele

you are right to do that. if you agree with him about that it will take all the enjoyment for him to keep the stuff for himself. smart lady, you are.

2:31 am

grannyrose

that's lovely bfd. thanx from me also. it's nice to kinow people all over the world are praying for you. i know...it happened for me last december. it was magical.

2:31 am

puglet

they are in the back bedroom with him smelling--lol

2:33 am

bfdeele

rose, you are on my prayer list also, sprite, and lizlin, and some others from babbleland. Prayer is powerful and I would not be here today without it.

2:33 am

bfdeele

Must get up and stretch my back. will be back later.

2:33 am

puglet

you are so right bf---is there something we could pray for, for you

2:34 am

puglet

brb need some coffee

2:43 am

puglet

what are you having for supper tonight Rose

2:54 am

grannyrose

sorry, back. was answering some emails. we are having steamed vegetables and garlic chicken kievs.

2:56 am

puglet

Rose, I think that pain shot they gave me at the er is what was making me feel so weak--yesterday I felt fine

3:00 am

grannyrose

it's a bit late for side effects, pug. what else is happening?

3:01 am

puglet

nothing, I feel great--but those few days afterwards I just felt drained

3:02 am

grannyrose

pugs, sweetie. of course you did. it was a tremendous strain on you physically. all that pain!!!

3:04 am

grannyrose

and then we could talk about the adrenaline released by your own body, in order for you to cope with the high levels of pain. my darling....just relax, let it flow...you are going to be okay.

3:04 am

puglet

well the hernia is back out as it was but no pain like it was

3:07 am

puglet

are you going to the pool

3:09 am

grannyrose

pugs, was wondering. do you have a truss? an appliance which gives you support whilst keeping the hernia reduced?

3:09 am

puglet

you mean that thing thats like a straight jacket--lol

3:09 am

grannyrose

tomorrow morning, pugs. *groan* pray for me, hun. that my determination holds out...

3:10 am

puglet

okay will do Rose

3:10 am

grannyrose

yes, dear. and you do need to put it on, so that it helps you...lol

3:11 am

puglet

If I can find it----it makes me sick to my stomach just having my clothes up against it

3:15 am

dizgrannie

3:16 am

grannyrose

3:16 am

grannyrose

3:17 am

puglet

dizgrannie

3:27 am

rubyfoo

It sounds like we're a bunch of walking wounded in different ways. I'm glad we have each other for prayers and support

3:27 am

puglet

3:41 am

puglet

3:41 am

sprite

oh great, Liz!

3:41 am

Lizlin

Loving them especially the last few where more info is being revealed.

3:42 am

grannyrose

got that wrong, pugs. our liz is very feminine...

3:42 am

sprite

oh you guys will love the book about Acheron so much

3:42 am

puglet

I cant wait to read his story

3:43 am

Lizlin

Yes, I'm a fast reader but I don't absorb all the details, so gre4 books over and over and get many different things from them each time.

3:43 am

Lizlin

Lol Rose!

3:43 am

puglet

Rose should get into the Dh stories

3:43 am

Lizlin

That should be I re4 books over!

3:43 am

grannyrose

lol, pugs...forgive me...but doesn't one have to be awake to read???

3:44 am

puglet

I guess it would help--lol

3:44 am

sprite

most people, yeah. But you are superrose... I bet you can do it asleep.

3:44 am

grannyrose

liz, absolutely.

3:44 am

puglet

I think they would keep you awake though

3:45 am

grannyrose

oh, dear. LOLOL sprite, you are the limit>>

3:45 am

sprite

;)

3:46 am

puglet

Sprite in the last book of the DH's does she leave you hanging on the story line

3:46 am

sprite

no she doesn't, pug

3:47 am

puglet

good, ty

3:47 am

Lizlin

I just don't want to get to the end of the series - that's the problem with reading fast - so I'm reading them 5 at a time and then reading something else in between!

3:47 am

sprite

hahaha I love it, Liz

3:48 am

grannyrose

i met our new perioperative services manager today...she is sooo young. oh, well.

3:48 am

puglet

Iam wanting to read the hunger games series

3:48 am

sprite

haven't read those yet either, pug, have them waiting for me here.

3:49 am

puglet

did she seem to know her job Rose

3:49 am

grannyrose

going to get the meds ready. brb

3:49 am

puglet

okay Rose

3:49 am

sprite

maybe she is young enough to not be set in her ways yet, rose.

3:50 am

Lizlin

I think that's happening everywhere - younger managers coming in. Perhaps it's just me getting older!

3:50 am

puglet

please let me know if they are worth getting-if you would please Sprite

3:51 am

rubyfoo

that was quick. There were some children and a strange dog in the road and puppy wanted to come hoe. She is very shy

3:51 am

sprite

lol reminds me of school children the world over... when they go to high school, they feel so tall and grownup. And then when they are a few years older, they claim the 'babies' are shorter and younger every year!

3:51 am

Lizlin

Pugs, have you read any of Anne McCaffrey? My fav author.

3:51 am

sprite

will do, pug. Don't spend money on it, it will work out.

3:52 am

Lizlin

Very true, sprite.

3:52 am

puglet

I dont think so Liz

3:52 am

sprite

the whole pern series, Liz, for me. Awesome books.

3:52 am

Lizlin

Love her Dragonriders of Pern series - awesome.

3:52 am

sprite

and To Ride Pegasus... also a wonderful book.

3:52 am

Lizlin

Also like the Rowan trilogy and Crystal Singer.

3:53 am

puglet

here at the second hand store, I can pick up alot of older books at a small price

3:53 am

sprite

oh yeah, the Crystal Singer series, forgot that was from her as well.

3:53 am

Lizlin

Of course - that too. Wasn't too keen on Decision at Doona.

3:53 am

sprite

hm I don't think I have read that one

3:53 am

sprite

Liz, have you read anything by Mercedes Lackey? She is one of my favorite writers.

3:53 am

Lizlin

Don't bother!

3:54 am

Lizlin

No, don't know her at all.

3:54 am

sprite

hehehe ok, I won't bother reading that one

3:55 am

Lizlin

Just looked at her on Amazon Kindle - looks like my sort of thing!

3:55 am

sprite

will drop you some files in the dropbox, Liz

3:55 am

Lizlin

That'd be awesome. Thanks.

3:56 am

Lizlin

Oh and of course I love McCaffrey's brain/brawn ship books too.

3:57 am

Lizlin

So in fact I guess it becomes obvious that's why she's my favourite author.

3:57 am

sprite

oh yes :)

3:58 am

Lizlin

Oh well. It's that time! 98 left and dinner's almost ready, so I've only got a minute or so more here.

3:59 am

grannyrose

from the sounds...it would apear to be dinner time.

3:59 am

3:59 am

sprite

3:59 am

sprite

Enjoy, darling, and *hugs*

3:59 am

sprite

4:00 am

grannyrose

xoxox, to all xoxox...see you once dinner is over....

4:00 am

puglet

4:01 am

sprite

that leaves us, I think, pug :)

4:02 am

puglet

yep, seem so--lol

4:03 am

puglet

its nice to see you back on Sprite---I miss you when you arnt

4:04 am

sprite

I love spending time with you, pug. Am sorry I cannot always make it.

4:04 am

puglet

is the peace treaty still going on between your men

4:04 am

rubyfoo

hellooooo

4:04 am

puglet

I know you cant Sprite

4:05 am

sprite

yeah, looks like it. They were both away for the weekend so they didn't spend much time in eachother's company.

4:05 am

puglet

Re Hi Ruby

4:05 am

sprite

hi ruby, welcome back

4:05 am

meliae

Shhhhh ((hugs)) Sprite and Pug, then sneaks back to the grid

4:05 am

puglet

that might be for the best--lol

4:05 am

sprite

hey mel :) *hugs*

4:05 am

puglet

hugs mel

4:06 am

sprite

tomorrow we have the final group meeting for family counselling. Hope we can wrap it up then.

4:07 am

puglet

I hope all goes well for you all

4:07 am

puglet

do you think it has helped

4:08 am

sprite

can you imagine the time I will have on my hands soon? No more family counselling, no more group... am so gonna love it!

4:08 am

sprite

yes it has helped, pug, a lot even. We have the tools to make it work for us now.

4:09 am

puglet

the right tools are important and so glad for you all. So what are you going to do with all that free time? Work on your book?

4:10 am

sprite

oh, btw, next week I won't be home much. Monday group, and tuesday through thursday super/intervision course from my counselling training.

4:10 am

sprite

I really should make that a priority, pug. Have let it slack again since I got the flu :(

4:10 am

puglet

:( What a whole week without you

4:11 am

sprite

am afraid so :(

4:12 am

puglet

well its for the good for you---but will miss you thats for sure

4:12 am

sprite

will miss you too, darling. Wish I could take you with me!

4:16 am

puglet

you know the craft placemats Carol got me...Iam going to sew them together(like a quilt) and make a wall hanging out of them

4:17 am

sprite

oh wow pug, that sounds amazing!

4:17 am

puglet

I think it will look nice like that

4:18 am

sprite

yes, certainly sounds nice, and so creative.

4:19 am

puglet

In the little town south of me, a father was cleaning his rifle and left the room for a sec and one of his kids shot the 13 year old and killed him---the second death of a kid in the same town this month--really sad

4:20 am

sprite

omg that is so so horrible! And so irresponsible... when will people learn that firearms are dangerous!

4:21 am

puglet

I know, so stupid

4:22 am

puglet

thats a terrible guilt to have to live with

4:22 am

sprite

am glad fire arms are prohibited by law here, to be honest. If you want one, you have to apply for a permit and you can only use them at a shooting range then. No carrying guns here unless you really need to for your job.

4:23 am

sprite

pug, I wouldn't wish that on my worst enemy. Not sure I could handle such a burden.

4:23 am

puglet

yeah me either

4:27 am

sprite

good grid today, so many series :)

4:27 am

puglet

its not bad at all

4:29 am

puglet

did you get to do yesterday's

4:29 am

sprite

yes, I did

4:30 am

puglet

it was a small one, but I got all of them but 2 and had to ask for one clue

4:31 am

puglet

OO, will be happier with this one today---he dont like the little ones

4:31 am

sprite

oh wow, well done pug!

4:31 am

sprite

the little ones don't keep him occupied for long enough, I guess.

4:32 am

puglet

cause hes too smart, like you

4:32 am

sprite

lol

4:34 am

sprite

quite a few babblets today

4:35 am

puglet

you are going to be really wiped out next week

4:37 am

sprite

yes I know, but it is so worth it, pug. The best place to be is there, and such great company. I will come back all charged up for the rest of the year.

4:38 am

puglet

it is for you to heal I know

4:41 am

sprite

it is the yearly reunion of all people who have finished the coaching training there, pug. We will learn more, help eachother, get to ask questions. And Hein Stufkens, our teacher, is such a wonderful person. As is his wife, who is a personal friend of mine.

4:43 am

puglet

it sounds like it will be very nice for you. Is your girlfriend in this too

4:45 am

sprite

no, Brigitte isn't part of the group, but she is around to keep things going smoothly. And I get to go out for dinner with her on Tuesday, before it all starts! And I have a personal session with Hein too, like therapy, but more personal because he is a friend.

4:46 am

puglet

well I hope you enjoy it all!...:)

4:47 am

sprite

I will :) Of everything I could possibly do, this is my favorite.

4:48 am

puglet

Carol, has been nagging me to come and spend a night with her, so Iam thinking of doing so maybe sunday or monday night if the weather is going to be okay

4:48 am

puglet

you need some fun time out with friends

4:49 am

sprite

oh that sounds so good, pug, you should do that!

4:50 am

puglet

I will --- if its going to be nice out

4:50 am

sprite

are you worried about your sister if you should go?

4:51 am

puglet

no--it will just be overnight

4:51 am

puglet

and she wont go

4:51 am

sprite

awesome! Just what you need.

4:53 am

puglet

we have fun together just doing nothing--lol

4:53 am

sprite

yes, and being away from it all, and no obligations or responsibilites, just you and your friend and a glass of wine and lots of fun

4:54 am

puglet

well no wine but yes to the rest

4:56 am

sprite

hehehe a glass of juice then, or water

4:57 am

puglet

more like coffee or pop--lol....once in a while during camping town her and I might get some winecoolers but thats about it on the boozing--lol

4:57 am

sprite

or something I used to enjoy when my friends came visiting: a huge pot of tea on the table, on a stove.

4:58 am

sprite

no need for alcohol to have a good time, pug :)

4:58 am

puglet

I meant time not town and almost reset time

4:59 am

puglet

I dont care for the taste of alcohol nor beer

4:59 am

sprite

I really love beer, don't care for wine or stronger spirits. But I can't drink alcohol anymore, I have medication that doesn't go well with alcohol so I don't drink it anymore.

5:04 am

puglet

besides not caring for the taste, I've seen too much damage of boozing it up

5:05 am

sprite

oh god yes. Too much alcohol is so damaging in all ways.

5:07 am

puglet

I get scared and panicy when around someone thats had too much

5:07 am

sprite

no wonder, pug, you have been on the receiving end of the damage too often.

5:08 am

puglet

Rose must be having a five course dinner--lol

5:08 am

sprite

lolollll maybe Don was the dessert

5:09 am

puglet

LOL, could be

5:09 am

puglet

she does have a naughty side--lol

5:10 am

sprite

hehehe I love that about her

5:10 am

puglet

she wouldnt be Rose without it

5:10 am

sprite

very true, lol. Fireflies for me.

5:11 am

puglet

yeah! congrats

5:13 am

puglet

you have a super-duper day Sprite and hope to see you in the morn. Iam taking a break for awhile from this myself

5:14 am

sprite

*hugs pugs* you too, darling, and know that I will be thinking of you.

5:15 am

puglet

thanks Sprite, as I will you

5:16 am

puglet

hugs and good night Rose----and OO, if you are out there, thinking of you, please take care

7:01 am

Lizlin

7:02 am

rubyfoo

ty lizlin

7:02 am

Lizlin

pe 8 - the most irritating - builds from pe 4

7:02 am

rubyfoo

pestiest

7:03 am

rubyfoo

whoops, sorry, will face away

7:03 am

Lizlin

hi 8 - hi + consonant + pl of Grannyr's name

Lizlin

7:03 am

Lizlin

7:04 am

Lizlin

di 8 - similar in meaning to the nu 8

7:04 am

rubyfoo

wow, many thanks, lizlin

7:04 am

Lizlin

se 8 - lets the most water through - builds on se 4

7:05 am

Lizlin

then the 8 - the littlest one

7:05 am

Lizlin

Not sure how many I've clued here but I've got all the 8's - bit short on 7s though!

7:06 am

Lizlin

ti 8 - the drunkest

7:06 am

Lizlin

un 8 - someone for whom you've no sympathy is un 8

7:06 am

Lizlin

I think that's all of them - don't know how helpful the clues are though!

72 Temple Owl

8:29 am

JBV

yes Molly - first thoughts are always the scariest when you see buildings obliterated like that

Anniebrook

I have a friend on W158 Street and she felt tremors

8:31 am

JBV

you know it's interesting, we think of all those people homeless, but yesterday in the news coverage I didn't hear any mention of that - it was all about the fire, debris, train disruption etc

8:31 am

72 Temple Owl

Anniebrook

It happened at 116th St and Park Aven

8:31 am

the red cross is helping them. they got out with nothing but their lives

8:32 am

JBV

that's the heart of El Barrio - I know it well - they were calling it Harlem on the news, but it's East Harlem

8:32 am

MollyL

The sad thing is, people were complaining for weeks about gas smells in that building and nothing was done.

8:33 am

JBV

omg - is that true?

8:33 am

72 Temple Owl

molly, i heard that as well. i wondered if they called con ed...no one mentioned that excpet the man who called that AM

8:33 am

Anniebrook

I heard on TV that the only complaint to Con Ed was 15 minutes before the explosion

8:34 am

72 Temple Owl

and even he said he smelled it in weeks before.

8:49 am

crosshair

for those in babble who love the SF genre of books, I have a new and very interesting post in my profile for today( it was too long to post here)

8:55 am

Judi

Good morning, fellow humans!

8:55 am

crosshair

howdy judi

8:56 am

JBV

hi judy and hi crossy

8:58 am

Judi

Reading back in chat. Poor Scrabbs! Skiing is bad for you

8:59 am

crosshair

was funny, the book I am talking about in my post is one I have never read before even though it is a big award winner. In the book the writer was talking about the protagonist hoarding spare radio tubes, so I had to stop and look up some info on the novel and it seems it was written in 1949! lol

9:00 am

crosshair

I missed that. what happened to scrabby?

9:00 am

uusue2

morning all!

9:00 am

uusue2

oops, forgot to update my icon, brb

9:00 am

crosshair

suze!!

9:00 am

JBV

8:42 in chat , skiing accident

9:01 am

crosshair

got it. wow. she must have taken a hard fall to have no memory of her getting to the warming hut

9:03 am

Judi

Methinks she met abruptly with a tree.

9:05 am

crosshair

I would tend to agree , either that or she fell and hit her head on some ice

9:08 am

crosshair

we had a friend of ours staying at a hotel we used to run about 15 years ago and he go into his car and drove out the driveway and onto the road, but it seems he had forgotten something in the back of the mini-van and as he got out and went to walk to the back of the van he fell and hit his head on some ice on the side of the road.. poor guy was dead almost before my da and I could run to him from the front door to where he lay in the road

9:08 am

Judi

Dang! That's freaky.

9:09 am

crosshair

what was worse was the ten minutes of chest compression and breathing we did on him before the ambulance showed up. It was only afterwards that we were told that he had dies almost inhstantly

9:10 am

crosshair

died* instantly**

9:11 am

crosshair

cpr is HARD I was gasping and needed some O2 treatment when they showed up

9:12 am

crosshair

now they say all chest compression and no breaths at all

9:13 am

Judi

Did you know that CPR no longer includes breaths? Med experts advise that chest compressions move enough air in an out of the lungs. The primary concern should be re-establishing a heartbeat.

9:13 am

Judi

Guh. Must type faster.

9:18 am

crosshair

lol

9:19 am

crosshair

babble had a hiccup

9:20 am

uusue2

Im useless at math, unfortunately

11:57 am

Aloyisius

oh, I can do that.. with a calculator

11:58 am

Trifioso

how? is it just 383 times 63?

11:58 am

flosey

ah, there you are

11:58 am

Trifioso

shoot, 73...see "im useless at math"

11:59 am

Trifioso

so, 1418 is the full amount, or do you have to then add the 383 on?

lilliann

I must admit Molly, i don't know that one

4:38 pm

MollyL

I think it was just a typo. I was having fun with it.

4:40 pm

MollyL

L, my favorite people are the ones who are authentic and true to themselves. I tend to step around the ones who are all fake-like and flowery.

4:40 pm

lilliann

Aye, i think it should have been a g, but i'm still not good with single letter speech.my daughter puts kk, when i text her?

4:41 pm

MollyL

Blech, I can't stand that one. How hard is it to type "okay"?

4:43 pm

lilliann

After i wrote about the drowning noises i didn't want to show it as there might have been people here that have lost loved ones drowning...i do tend to think of others that i'll upset even though i don't technically know people here properly

4:43 pm

lilliann

ok would be alright to me but kk?what's that mean?

4:44 pm

MollyL

It's that weird, hinky text speak that people use. It doesn't mean anything.

4:45 pm

lilliann

I've upset enough with my arse:) i have a cheeky and i am who i am side also a 'don't want to upset people side' it must be the gemini in me

4:48 pm

4:58 pm

MollyL

Soodle, the BEST Tullamore Dew commercial EVER. Be sure to watch it to the end.
http://tinyurl.com/qccpaeh

4:59 pm

Soodle

I saw it Molls. Too cool.

4:59 pm

mixi6

*working.

5:00 pm

MollyL

I think it should be played at every bachelor party.

5:00 pm

Soodle

Mixi- should we be scared? Ides etc?

5:01 pm

lilliann

Hi Soodle:D, sorry cat wanted to be fed

5:01 pm

lilliann

Hi Mixi :)

5:02 pm

lilliann

Diving back in:)

5:02 pm

MollyL

L, you need to work on this "pleasing people" thing. It's okay to feed your cat and say hi when you can.
: P

5:02 pm

Soodle

Hey, Lil. I totally understand a hungry cat takes priority!!! Lol

5:04 pm

lilliann

i can't help it, i was brought up to be polite and say sorry when i didn't reply when i was spoken to

5:05 pm

Soodle

I left work this afternoon, & said ' see you next Wednesday'. I have the next 5 days off. Yoo-hoo.

5:05 pm

lilliann

Yay...enjoy hin

5:08 pm

MollyL

Soodle, I should have known. That commercial has probably been all over Facebook ten thousand times by now.

5:08 pm

lilliann

Cat first before babble...never!! LOL.. but husband sat down playing patience on his laptop...that's obviously more important!!

5:08 pm

MollyL

Patience??

5:09 pm

lilliann

Also called solitaire i think Molly

5:12 pm

Soodle

Molly, I could swear I sent you a link to that commercial a few months ago. If I didn't, I surely meant to. Its a lovely commercial.

5:12 pm

lilliann

Saying that, i can't complain as this week he's been busy doing work in our front garden and has worked hard power washing our block paving

5:16 pm

MollyL

That commercial probably annoys a lot of women. But it's true to the camaraderie of men, before they all leave the "boys club" to marry.

5:16 pm

Soodle

I'm in a tizzy at the moment. Really scary damp patches have begun appearing on my bedroom ceiling. One part of me is saying 'Ignore - they will go away'. The sensible part of me is saying 'Shit! The ceiling might collapse in on top of you'.

5:16 pm

72 Temple Owl

hiya cheeky

5:17 pm

MollyL

Oh damn, I had such high hopes for the "strange things are going on in the Soodle boudoir" comment a few days ago.

5:18 pm

72 Temple Owl

really.

5:19 pm

lilliann

Hi TO :D.How are you Hin? I hope you've managed to get rid of your cold

5:20 pm

72 Temple Owl

not really. but better. i will NOT miss the weekend

5:20 pm

mixi6

Soodle, only if you're Julius Ceasar.

5:21 pm

lilliann

Sorry to hear that TO.What's happening this weekend?

5:21 pm

72 Temple Owl

date and babble meetup

5:22 pm

Soodle

Phew, mix! Julius Ceasar I'm not,

5:22 pm

lilliann

Soodle, that's not good, we get it in our bathroom but that's because of the roofs over them and we have very thin walls.what is over your bedroom?

5:23 pm

mixi6

Soodle, if the ceiling bulges,it probably has standing water and it could get too heavy. otherwise until it is so soaked that it starts falling apart, it probably(not guaranteed) won't fall.

5:24 pm

lilliann

To, lucky you :) well, i hope the date goes well.have you been on a date with the lucky gentleman before? i would love to go on a babble meet up.i've only met one babbler here and she's lovely and we are good friends now

5:25 pm

72 Temple Owl

that is so nice, lil. i may be travelling this summer and i would love to meet some of you.

5:25 pm

lilliann

It won't fall in Soodle, it just means you ahve damp somewhere

5:25 pm

72 Temple Owl

it is feast or famine; two things in conflict this weekend. some weekends there is nothing

5:25 pm

Soodle

I'm coping with this crisis like I cope with most other crises. Putting fingers in ears and singing 'Wah wah wah'

5:26 pm

72 Temple Owl

soodle: with water, that is dangerous.

5:27 pm

Soodle

Blah blah blah, TO! I want to hear about your date....

5:27 pm

lilliann

To,If you are coming here, i would love to meet up with you.You'll have to let us know where

5:27 pm

72 Temple Owl

which one?

5:28 pm

MollyL

Water spots on the ceiling mean leaking pipes. Wah, wah, wah all you want.

5:28 pm

72 Temple Owl

well, lil, so far only discussion, no plan. but my passport is in the worls

5:28 pm

lilliann

It sounds like damp Soodle,it doesn't mean your ceiling is going to fall in...take a breath!! :) but it does need to be looked at

5:28 pm

72 Temple Owl

it only gets worse.

5:29 pm

lilliann

More than one date TO? You lucky lady:D

5:29 pm

MollyL

What happened to the plumber boyfriend? He could be handy at the moment.

5:29 pm

72 Temple Owl

yes. date a tradesman, i say.

5:30 pm

72 Temple Owl

well lil, more than one sdate but only one man

5:30 pm

Soodle

Leaking pipes are good. That means house insurance covers damage.

5:31 pm

MollyL

Alas, I know wives of mechanics who never get their cars repaired.

5:31 pm

lilliann

OOhhh, sounds good TO.what's he like? does he dance aswell?

5:31 pm

72 Temple Owl

5:31 pm

72 Temple Owl

5:31 pm

lilliann

Soodle, not if the ceiling falls on your head...who's going to do the insurance claim?

5:32 pm

MollyL

Good weather predicted for around these parts tomorrow. High of 56. Good day for outside park fun.

5:32 pm

lilliann

Well, TO, it sounds like a match made in Heaven:)

5:32 pm

72 Temple Owl

5:32 pm

72 Temple Owl

5:36 pm

lilliann

5:51 pm

lilliann

We will come and annoy you one day Soodle:)

5:52 pm

Jillyjill

I now have a friend in Dublin as well as Soodle, so all I need to do is win the lottery!

5:52 pm

Soodle

And Molly has been flying fantastic icons as well.... I ache for an Irish Babble meet up.

5:53 pm

MollyL

Well quit your aching. River is on her way and it looks like L is not far behind her.

5:53 pm

Jillyjill

7,8,9's are done....now, do I go from the bottom or the top!?

5:53 pm

Jillyjill

That would be so awesome!

5:54 pm

Soodle

And I'm really looking forward to River's visit. I cant wait.

5:55 pm

Jillyjill

5:59 pm

lilliann

Jilly< i was just about to say, if i win the lottery then i will pay for Soodle to come across and have a holiday with us(i'm sure she's so excited!! not:) and then she could meet others in Great Britain

6:02 pm

lilliann

I'm sure you'll have a great time with River

6:03 pm

Soodle

Lil, i've no doubt our paths will cross soon.....

6:04 pm

Jillyjill

I hope to win enough to fly all my babble buddies for a meetup!

6:05 pm

lilliann

Well i hope you have loads of alcohol and computors because we will still NEED to babble :)

6:06 pm

Jillyjill

Go big or go home!

6:06 pm

lilliann

:D

6:06 pm

lilliann

But it would be great as we could all babble together so it would take less time to do the grid:0

6:07 pm

MollyL

And alcohol has to do with Babble...how?

6:08 pm

MollyL

And seriously, if you all finally get together and spend your time playing Babble, I will think you quite dull.

6:08 pm

lilliann

It would be a party

6:08 pm

lilliann

We could make a babble party fun:D

6:09 pm

Jillyjill

Soodle has been quiet, but I think irish babblers would need wee bit of alcohol and be very fun!

6:09 pm

MollyL

Irish Babble players...wee bit...ahahahaha!

6:10 pm

lilliann

Molly, why are you saying if we all had a party?you'd be invited

6:11 pm

lilliann

I was going to say that too Molly...lol

6:11 pm

Jillyjill

I do think I said ALL my babble buddies miss molly!

6:17 pm

lilliann

If i win the euromillions tomorrow, then i'm paying for my babble friends from across the pond to come and a have a good holiday over here

6:18 pm

lilliann

But knowing my luck i won't even get one number:(

6:19 pm

Jillyjill

<----crosses fingers for miss L!

6:20 pm

lilliann

tomorrow it is Â£103

6:20 pm

lilliann

Million

6:21 pm

MollyL

L, lets just say that the Babble Facebook page is a real eye opener and leave it at that.

6:21 pm

Jillyjill

*crosses even harder*

6:22 pm

lilliann

Then you'll be invited on your own and shown arounf Durham city which has a Cathedral and Castle and i think you'd like the history Molly

6:23 pm

Soodle

Gees. If I ever win enough cash to assemble a band of Babblers together in one place....all I can say is that weould give Ellen a run for her money in the Selfie Dept.

6:23 pm

MollyL

I love cathedrals and castles. I'm big into architecture.

6:23 pm

Soodle

We would...

6:24 pm

Jillyjill

LOL soodle dear! We would crash Twitter for sure!!

6:24 pm

Soodle

Yay, Jilly. ðŸ˜„

6:25 pm

lilliann

And Soodle would be invited and she can show us how to drink guiness or whisky:)

6:25 pm

stidgmere

Hi just hopping abord. Babblers are talkers Molly. There is nothing more entertaining than clever talkers, i.e. Irish people.

6:25 pm

lilliann

Hi ((gmere))

6:26 pm

stidgmere

Hi lilliann. aboard is spelled wrong. No wonder Babble game is so challenging for me!

6:26 pm

MollyL

Oh, big disappointment L. Soodle doesn't drink Guinness or whiskey.

6:27 pm

Soodle

Ha ha, Lil. I am an absolute disgrace to my heritage. I don't drink eitherGuinness or whiskey.

6:27 pm

MollyL

She drinks a lot of tea and wine though.

6:28 pm

Soodle

but, what I lack in Guinness &whiskey, I make up for in Lager & wine!

6:28 pm

stidgmere

If wishes were horses beggers would ride. We need to put some legs under our wish for wandering!

6:29 pm

Soodle

OMG..... I have a ghost writer.....

6:29 pm

MollyL

There is an echo in here...here...here

6:29 pm

Soodle

MollyL. You know me too well.....

6:30 pm

lilliann

sorry, away for loo break :0

6:30 pm

stidgmere

I'm sorry Soodle, I haven't read down the chog, did I inadvertently copy a thought you previously published?

6:30 pm

Jillyjill

Well, time for dinner 80 to go....bbs

6:30 pm

lilliann

Thank God for that Soodle as i hate both too...wine...yay your my gal:)

6:31 pm

stidgmere

Oh I have 14 words and not much chance of whipping through this grid, good bye for now jilly.

6:32 pm

lilliann

Enjoy JIlly, I'm still bound to be here when you come back:)

6:35 pm

lilliann

What does that mean Gmere? your post at 6.28

6:37 pm

stidgmere

The first sentence is the old Mother Goose saying that if wishes came true, beggers would be riding (rather than walking). The second sentence just means if we want to visit you, rather than wait for your lottery winnings and good will, we need to get moving on our own power to visit you.

6:37 pm

6:47 pm

6:49 pm

lilliann

I must admit i've been doing that with words as in pl and pt Kje

6:49 pm

kje

there are so many variant endings in this one

6:50 pm

MollyL

Variant endings are what make it a big grid

7:02 pm

kje

7:02 pm

lilliann

I'm watching a police programme at the moment and a policeman has just pulled someone who went up a road with a No Entry Sign and his son is a sailor who he's picked up drunk in his uniform which isn't good(if he is a real sailor, as they are not allowed out in uniform unless it is for a reason) and his dad told the police to 'wind their neck in'...i like that saying

7:03 pm

kje

I have never heard wind your neck in - meaning mind your own business?

7:03 pm

kje

nm, found the tu6

7:03 pm

MollyL

L, you watch the most dramatic TV shows

7:04 pm

lilliann

It means, just chill, relax

7:04 pm

lilliann

i'm so glad kje as i couldn't think how to clue it :)

7:04 pm

kje

ah... not sure I'd tell the police to take a chill pill

7:05 pm

kje

good way to piss 'em off

7:06 pm

lilliann

No, they were chilled, even when the sailor accuse one of the policeman being drunk

7:07 pm

lilliann

The sailor was pi4ed as a fart mind you

7:07 pm

MollyL

lilliann

It's normally husband's programmes Molly but he's gone to bed and i hadn't changerd the channel

7:14 pm

MollyL

American translation: quit gawking

7:14 pm

kje

7:57 pm

lilliann

you will be, as it is more mentally tiring

7:59 pm

lilliann

I found it more tiring working in homes than hospitals, plus, in homes we don't have porters..not here anyway, so we were doing everything

7:59 pm

phandmd

I guess so!

7:59 pm

phandmd

what is a porter?

kje

I'm beginning to see the light!

8:04 pm

lilliann

I worked in a psychiatric hospital when i was 17 and a half and we had to lift,bathe,dress,feed the patients, so it was very physical and also very mentally tiring and i did that job but with old sailors and then young/old adults with special needs after that, and it is a physical job but mentally tiring, and to me the mentally tiring is more so than the physical

8:05 pm

lilliann

Porters here in hospitals and homes push people on the trolleys

8:05 pm

kje

FW!

8:05 pm

phandmd

I think you are right, mental tired is harder than physical tired.

8:05 pm

8:07 pm

lilliann

we call them that too, but i couldn't think of the name

8:07 pm

kje

but I think I will call it a trolley next time I need to use the word, just to screw with the staff's minds

8:07 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

whereas a trolley is light rail :)

8:07 pm

lilliann

light rail?

8:26 pm

lilliann

Hi MIn:)

8:28 pm

lilliann

It's better with the fruit Jax, as you can't taste the green tea so much, but when i make it, i just leave the teabag in and drink it 5 minutes after so i'm getting the benefits of the grren tea

8:28 pm

lilliann

Gwen, i also like hot water but i add a wedge of lemon or lime into it and then will drink it when it cools down

8:29 pm

jaxx7

Now, that I do like.
