justafreep

hi, pug and liz

I'd like to say an easy reentry - but it's not!

12:57 am

gapeach

brb

12:58 am

puglet

wonder where our Rose is?

12:58 am

Lizlin

Probably having a nice Saturday afternoon out somewhere - that's just stating the obvious!

12:59 am

puglet

I hope thats it

12:59 am

Lizlin

Was it today she was getting together with one of her sons?

12:59 am

puglet

Iam not sure Liz

1:00 am

Lizlin

Me neither!

1:01 am

Lizlin

But as it's now 5pm, Saturday afternoon where Rose lives, I guess it's likely she's been out for the day or afternoon.

1:02 am

Lizlin

btw pugs - sorry I haven't returned that e mail - but I hate chain letters and that's just a type of chain letter.

1:03 am

puglet

np--rose sent it to me---I dont know that many people so I fell short--lol

1:03 am

Lizlin

OK - didn't want you to think I was ignoring you!

1:03 am

puglet

Iam not crazy about them either

1:03 am

Lizlin

I used to hate the handwritten ones. from when I was a kid, too.

1:04 am

puglet

that didnt even enter my mind

1:05 am

Lizlin

Good - told you that you are a nice person!

1:05 am

Lizlin

Good - told you that you are a nice person!

1:05 am

puglet

I was never into stuff like that

1:05 am

Lizlin

Good - told you that you are a nice person!

1:05 am

ursh

have to agree about chain emails - especially the religious ones that say you wont get blessings if you dont forward to 10 people at least

1:05 am

puglet

server is acting up:(

1:06 am

Lizlin

I agree Ursh - those ones really upset some people.

1:06 am

Lizlin

Hey! Server acting up but you got my complement 3 times! :)

1:08 am

puglet

I never ever knew enough people to send them to so I just never got into them

1:09 am

Lizlin

Nowadays I think that they just clog up the internet!

1:09 am

puglet

and plus I dont believe in that stuff either

1:09 am

cybernan

Hi all -- been lurking and *!* ta da *!* - see you tomorrow :)

1:09 am

What do you do in DC, my son lives in DC on and off

5:46 am

rubyfoo

on the news last night, there was an ultimate stupidity. The Italians, who have more than 60,000(!!!) "official" cars for the government, all of them German and luxury, have decided to sell 150 of them on e-bay to save money.

5:46 am

bojazz

5:50 pm

rubyfoo

the only time Iget to see my fried is when I sneak down after the dogs are given their treats and dh is sleeping

5:53 pm

MollyL

Yeah, we are all frieds here : D

5:53 pm

rubyfoo

it sure sounds like it. I;m not even drinking, but have trouble typing so late at night

5:53 pm

rubyfoo

Did soodle leave\?

5:54 pm

MollyL

Ruby why do you have to sneak around your veryown house?

5:54 pm

rubyfoo

I don't want to wake husband up

5:55 pm

MollyL

As if your tiny footfall would wake him. *Soodle has the internet attention span of a flea with ADD*

5:55 pm

rubyfoo

Did I tell you tat I fell asleep on the dog and now will probably ned flea and tick meds

5:56 pm

MollyL

Time for regular bathing and flea and tick dips for the dogs. Ugh.

5:56 pm

rubyfoo

forex the name of a brand of something I don't really know about\/

5:57 pm

rubyfoo

that's if you can catch the. It's still a little bit too cold to bathe them outide and they are mucy too big to bathe in the house

5:58 pm

Soodle

Aaarrgh. I'm back. (((Ruby)))

5:58 pm

rubyfoo

{{soodle}} what happened?

5:58 pm

MollyL

Too big to bathe them in the bathtub? Exactly how big are these dogs?

5:59 pm

Soodle

And (((Molly)))

5:59 pm

rubyfoo

they'd fit in my tub but who could hoist the in? Ruffino weighs close to 80 and Rafaella is catching up fast.

6:00 pm

rubyfoo

but walking her these 6 weeks has done me a lot of good. I am actually gaining muscle

6:00 pm

Soodle

Oh, wow. An uncle of mine died last Friday week. We buried him on Wednesday. Then another uncle of mine died this Friday gone. I'm a bit weary.

6:00 pm

MollyL

Oh I bet they would climb right in the tub if you put something interesting in there.

6:01 pm

rubyfoo

when we lived on Fisher \island there was a grooming service that picked up our dogs Rosie and Rufus and took them to their saslon. And, believe it or not it cost less thasn here

6:01 pm

MollyL

*Raises the parting glass*

6:03 pm

Soodle

I suppose I better get used to it.... Most of my uncles/aunts/parents are absolutely ancient.

6:03 pm

rubyfoo

"toasting soodle's uncles." How sad to have them both die so close together. Do they still have professional mourners in |Ireland; maybe that could be my next career

6:04 pm

rubyfoo

That's how Burt talks about all his friends (all???), that they are gone

6:04 pm

MollyL

Sadly, there comes a time in life when your "wedding clothes" get replaced by "funeral clothes". I've lost too many people over the last few years. It's depressing.

6:04 pm

jaxx7

reminds you that you are mortal too.

6:04 pm

rubyfoo

and youd're so youg, Molly

6:04 pm

Soodle

LOL Rubes. No need to pay professional mourners in my clan. Theres so bloomin' many of us, that we could fill a church/crematorium/synagogue without any extras!

6:05 pm

rubyfoo

You are fortunate to have such a big family. I grew up with many cousins and aunts and uncles but we are widely disbursed and many have died (most actually)

6:06 pm

MollyL

And not enough babies to take their places.

6:06 pm

Soodle

Well, when Uncle Bob died last week, I phoned my boss to let him know I needed Wednesday off. As an aside, I remarked that this may become a regular occurance. Little did I know....

6:07 pm

rubyfoo

1st husband was an only child as is my second. My sister married an only child and each of us had "fils unique".

6:07 pm

MollyL

My Father was the youngest of 12. I remember when he lost his last sibling. It really mad him sad.

6:08 pm

rubyfoo

and my son and his wife aren't having any children

6:08 pm

MollyL

It made him really sad.

6:08 pm

rubyfoo

DH has 3 estranged children, 5 unknown grandchildren and 3 truly unknown greast-grands It's hard to imagine him making those choices

6:09 pm

rubyfoo

I have a friend who's the oldest of 12 but they're all going strong. She's my age and her mother still plays golf!

6:09 pm

Soodle

How right you are about the big family, Rubes. It was a pain in the ass when I was getting married... so many guests that HAD to be invited, and the associated costs. Now, however, it's really good to know that there is a significant support system.

6:09 pm

MollyL

See, that kind of stuff just makes me wonder why. Here I am, longing for just one grandchild, and your husband has 5 that he has no use for.

6:10 pm

rubyfoo

Exactly, Molly. At least I stay in regular touch with one of his daughters but when he had his last birthday, she was "too busy" to come.

6:10 pm

Soodle

Oh, Molly. I hear you. I would love a grandchild.

6:11 pm

rubyfoo

And now, since she has her 3rd grandchild and didn't hear fro him, she's gone silent

6:11 pm

rubyfoo

At least I have the dogs, thank God for them

6:12 pm

jaxx7

That is very sad, Ruby. is he a difficult man?

6:12 pm

MollyL

You get to a point in life when it's time to have young ones around again.

6:12 pm

rubyfoo

My son wanted children, but his wife, from a very arge family, didn't want any and he acceded to her wishes. Now she's almost 50, so that's that

6:12 pm

jaxx7

You also get to a point in life when the young are too much to cope with

6:13 pm

MollyL

Sorry, I just spit my drink at "is he a difficult man". Jaxx hasn't been around chat much.

6:13 pm

rubyfoo

jax, ywes, you might say he's "difficult" lololol

6:13 pm

rubyfoo

I'm starting to think that I could use a drink; where are those pool boys whe we need them?

6:14 pm

Soodle

Jaxx, Mr Rubyfoo was awarded 'Difficult Husband of The Year Award' for the last five years in a row.

6:14 pm

MollyL

I have never had a hard time coping with the wee ones. They are the people who still know about magic.

6:15 pm

rubyfoo

He can be charming, but not to me. He's either overly sentimental which makes me nauseous or very nasty. Then I just walk away

6:15 pm

rubyfoo

That' why I loved being a teacher, Molly.

6:15 pm

Soodle

Babies between birth and two months terrify the livin' daylights out of me. Once they get to about 3 months, I love them.

my father was too. he ruled the roost and gave my mother hell. he ignored us completely. There was a sort of justice in the way he died at the age of 46 with gangrene of the intestine followed by a heart attack. His last words to my mother were ' None of you will miss me, will you'

6:16 pm

rubyfoo

I like children from about 8 or 9 to 14. They're the most intereting to me.

6:16 pm

jaxx7

Kids are fine until the hormones kick in

6:16 pm

rubyfoo

wow, jaxx, that's quite a story

6:16 pm

MollyL

Overly sentimental or nasty, both are barfy.

6:17 pm

rubyfoo

I even like teenagers, but wouldn't want to have one any more My son was a pleasure ecept for a couple of tough years

6:17 pm

Soodle

OMG Rubes.... they are not children between those ages. They are hormones on legs...

6:17 pm

jaxx7

One of my friends has described my life as a soap opera - not at all it has been more dramatic than that.

6:17 pm

rubyfoo

|My favorite was teaching junior high; the kids were so uch fun

6:17 pm

Soodle

Jaxx, Is your Mom still around?

6:18 pm

MollyL

Everyone else's kids are fun at junior high age. Your own are walking, talking attitude.

6:18 pm

jaxx7

No, she died 4 years ago at the age of 94.

6:19 pm

Soodle

And, ignore me if I am being too nosy, was her life better after your Dad passed away?

6:19 pm

rubyfoo

I think we have to start writing our books. I've tentatively titled mine "How Bluebeard, an English crook and the IRS ruined my life".

6:20 pm

MollyL

Oh for God's sake Ruby, there is so much more about your life that is positive and good. New title please.

6:20 pm

jaxx7

We all had a better life. No more aggro and no more searching for mum after my dad had been really nasty and she had gone out.

6:20 pm

rubyfoo

That's the book to get me out of this jam. The other one is to make some money, tentatively called 100's of shades of all colors"

6:21 pm

rubyfoo

That's the one that |Molly will ghostwrite

6:21 pm

Soodle

I'm happy to hear that, Jaxx,

6:21 pm

MollyL

Forget the first one. No one wants to read a sob story. The juicy stuff sells.

6:22 pm

rubyfoo

I was very lucky with my parent and with my son, too

6:22 pm

jaxx7

He was 6ft 2 and my mum was 5ft 2. The only time I saw her retaliate was when she got a stepladder, olaced it up against my father. he stood there and let her while she broke a carton of eggs over his head.

6:22 pm

rubyfoo

I thought maybe the NYPost

6:22 pm

rubyfoo

parents*

6:22 pm

jaxx7

*placed, even

6:23 pm

Soodle

I spent many years in an abusive relationship, and I have fretted and worried about the effect it had on my kids. Its good to hear that kids come out the other end intact.

6:23 pm

rubyfoo

I thought an expose might embarrass the fisc into droppig the case

6:23 pm

MollyL

We all come out on the other end intact. If we set our sites on thriving.

6:24 pm

Soodle

For sure, Molly. I'm thinking of my kids.

6:24 pm

rubyfoo

Absolutely, Molly. Sometimes it takes a little therapy (I needed it to get out of the 1st marriage), but came out of it much stronger and very ambitious

6:25 pm

rubyfoo

Your kids sound wonderful, soodle, I think you've done a great job, husband be damned!

6:25 pm

MollyL

Kids are very hearty and take their cues from Mom. Your kids obviously learned healthy things from you Soodle. The past is gone, no need to live there anymore.

6:25 pm

rubyfoo

(and probably will be)

6:26 pm

jaxx7

Some do. My father tolerated my brother and I because we were clever. My poor sister, on the other hand, was born when the marriage was creaking and Dad blamed her. He would sign our reports but refused to sign Jill's. he made her life a misery but she tells me that she's forgiven him while I find it so hard to do so.

6:26 pm

Soodle

But the good news is that Daughter of Soodle ( which sounds soooo much less ominous than Son of Soodle) has been shortlisted from 26,000 to 400 for a position in the Irish Police Academy.

6:27 pm

rubyfoo

Somehow, I don't think forgiveness works. Better to use some of thoe resentments to grow on

6:27 pm

MollyL

Cop Daughter Of Soodle. Oh there are so many places to go with that.

6:27 pm

rubyfoo

That is great news, soodle

6:28 pm

rubyfoo

(son of soodle sound too much like son of sam)

6:28 pm

MollyL

The names that start with Mac or Mc mean "son of". As an Irish person, Son Of Soodle never bothered me.

6:28 pm

Soodle

LOL Molly, don't think that I haven't thought of all of them. LOL.

6:29 pm

rubyfoo

So when I move to Ireland, I'll become Nellie cLief lol

6:30 pm

rubyfoo

McLief

6:30 pm

jaxx7

My mother came from an irish background and she was one in a million. How she ran a B&B, brought up three kids while my father drank himself silly, I will never know.

6:30 pm

rubyfoo

MacLief

6:30 pm

MollyL

Of all the young boys who were friends of my son, one is now a cop and one is a fireman. I hope to never run into them while they are at work.

6:30 pm

rubyfoo

or I could keep the (misspelled Kelley)

6:31 pm

Soodle

Yep. Fair play to Sarah. In this recession ridden country, to land a job which is permanent and pensionable would be quite an achievement.

6:31 pm

rubyfoo

yay for Sarah!!

6:32 pm

Soodle

And, of course, her mother would never get a speeding ticket again.....

6:32 pm

rubyfoo

where are you Jaxx?

6:32 pm

jaxx7

You wish!

6:33 pm

rubyfoo

Jacksonville? Jackson Hole?

6:33 pm

Soodle

LOL. Like Rubes said, where are you?

6:33 pm

jaxx7

I am in the Uk in a small seaside town in Devon on the SW peninsular but my early life was spent in Manchester in Lancashire.

6:34 pm

rubyfoo

So you are not so far away. Do you go to the seashore and look for fossils?

6:35 pm

Soodle

SW peninsula..... sure, your practically in Ireland!

6:35 pm

rubyfoo

Isn't that where the French Lieutenant's Woman was set\\\\\/

6:35 pm

jaxx7

Not in Teignmouth. At the moment after the gales, we have no beach to speak of. To get good fossils you have to go to the Jurassic Coast in Dorset (about two counties up)

6:35 pm

Soodle

Ruby... any positive news on the IRS front?

6:35 pm

rubyfoo

swimming distance, if you do't mind cold water and sharks

6:36 pm

rubyfoo

no, it just gets worse. They raise the bill about 20K/month. The numbers are ridiculous

6:36 pm

jaxx7

No, That was set in Lyme Regis, I believe.

6:36 pm

rubyfoo

aaah, sorry, I'll have to look up a map

6:36 pm

Soodle

Has there been any progress at all?

6:37 pm

Lizlin

Good morning all :)

6:37 pm

rubyfoo

I went to the Fr lawyer the other day and the whole thing is so stupid at this point that I could barely keep a straigt face and he must have thought I was a total idiot

6:37 pm

Soodle

Hiya Liz :-)

6:37 pm

jaxx7

It is on the edge of the SW Peninsula in Dorset. Lovely part of the world.

6:37 pm

rubyfoo

hiya liz

6:38 pm

MollyL

Women often have to live through seemingly unendurable life situations. One of my favorite quotes is "we're women honey, strength finds us".

6:38 pm

Soodle

Oh Ruby. You poor pet.

6:38 pm

Lizlin

Oh Ruby - I really hope it all gets sorted soon - it is ridiculous!

6:38 pm

jaxx7

Come and hide in less than sunny south devon

6:38 pm

rubyfoo

I had better go as I am beat and will even lose an hour of sleep tonight when the time changes

6:39 pm

rubyfoo

it will never be sorted and they'll probably invalidate my passport

6:39 pm

Lizlin

Sleep well Ruby - at least the time change means summer's coming :)

6:39 pm

MollyL

Don't fall asleep on the dog again.

6:39 pm

rubyfoo

my last resort will be very southern Italy. I already have someone with family there who will drive me and the dogs

6:40 pm

MollyL

Ruby, I swear to God I'm going to come over there and kick your tiny butt if you don't stop being so negative about this.

6:40 pm

Soodle

I swear to God.If men were the ones to give birth, everything would be different.

6:40 pm

MollyL

*Pardon Soodle and I while we swear to God*

6:40 pm

jaxx7

One child only, my mum used to say

6:40 pm

rubyfoo

I actually feel a whole lot better than I did 6 months ago, now that I've made soe decisions

6:41 pm

Soodle

LOL Molly. ~that was synchronised Swearing to God!

6:41 pm

rubyfoo

when the money strts to be taken, I'll send everybody plane tickets -- better them than the fisc

6:41 pm

jaxx7

Listen to the Helen Reddy song - I am woman, watch me grow. And i am showing my age again

6:42 pm

rubyfoo

I'm almost 71, jaxx, so I certainly remember that song

6:42 pm

rubyfoo

and you can all help me organize my papers and we can drink and start the smutty book

6:43 pm

Soodle

I remember that song Jaxx. Was it Helen Reddy who sang the song about Angie Babe?

6:43 pm

jaxx7

Good anthem. Women are stronger than men. They don't live as long either.

6:44 pm

rubyfoo

"Feel me roar"

6:44 pm

MollyL

Angie Baby and yes.

6:44 pm

jaxx7

I remember thee song Angie baby but can't recall who sang it.

6:44 pm

Lizlin

Sounding stronger Ruby :)

6:44 pm

rubyfoo

and my calves are growing muscles, yay

6:45 pm

Now I am going Quaker

rubyfoo

6:46 pm

jaxx7

Ruby, if God lets you down then we are all here to shout at Him

6:46 pm

Soodle

6:46 pm

MollyL

Oy, it's all schmoopy and hugs and kissy in here.

6:47 pm

jaxx7

female solidarity

6:47 pm

Soodle

Nah. God's gonna point his big foam finger down and zap one of us....

6:47 pm

Lizlin

Nothing wrong with hugs and kisses ;)

6:48 pm

MollyL

Whoosh...from schmoop to doom and gloom in one big swoop.

6:49 pm

Lizlin

Fireworks

6:50 pm

jaxx7

I have been hitting the red wine tonight and Babble is beyond me. My brain has gone off and left me. I don't think God will mind us being pesky for a good cause. I am off to my bed. Night all and here's to tomorrow, Mother's Day here.

6:50 pm

Lizlin

Sleep well Jaxx - and Happy Mother's Day.

6:50 pm

Soodle

(((Removing tongue from cheek))) Yay Lizz! Well done!

6:50 pm

Lizlin

Enjoy Liz.

6:52 pm

Lizlin

LOL!

6:52 pm

MollyL

Cursed \n

6:53 pm

Soodle

Note to self. Say 'Over and Out' rather that 'poof'. So much cooler.

6:56 pm

MollyL

Anything is better than poof.

6:56 pm

lil*monkey

poot

6:57 pm

MollyL

See, poot. SO much better.

6:58 pm

Soodle

I'd feel like Miami Vice or Kojak saying Over and Out. Poof just sounds boring now.

6:59 pm

lil*monkey

You could say *poink* when leaving

7:00 pm

MollyL

Or you could go Schwarzenegger and say "hasta la vista baby"

7:00 pm

lil*monkey

I like Toodle-Oooooooooooooo

7:00 pm

MollyL

Poink, reminds me of doink, which reminds me of dork.

7:03 pm

lil*monkey

I'm making cheesecake brownies right now

7:04 pm

Soodle

LOL. I just remembered. On the street I grew up on, in the late '70's / 80's, all the dogs were called after TV detectives. There was Canon Ryan, Starksy O Toole, Hutch Flanagan, Ironside Maguire, Columbo O Carroll (our dog....)

7:06 pm

MollyL

Mmm, cheesecake brownies. I found a recipe for caramel cinnamon brownies today. It's on my "to make" list.

7:30 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

7:30 pm

MollyL

"Thought I had tried that" is fast replacing "never mind" as the most popular Babble response.

7:31 pm

penquis

hah....yes, i am sure that is true...

7:31 pm

lil*monkey

We should acronym it ... TIHTT is "though I had tried that"

7:31 pm

penquis

7:31 pm

lil*monkey

or just TITT for thought I tried that hahahaha

7:32 pm

lil*monkey

Soodles doodles with noodles with oodles of poodles with Snickerdoodles

7:32 pm

MollyL

TITT works, even though I am not fond of short speak.

7:32 pm

penquis

*Bets Soodles introodles her way back in here, because her ears are burning*

Of course, Soodle may be spoonoodling with a doodle. Too busy to introodle.

7:38 pm

lil*monkey

Oooh Molloodle!

7:40 pm

MollyL

Or she could just be watching a movie and gorging on some foodle.

7:41 pm

lil*monkey

She is niboodling on some pizzoodle

Which would put her in a good moodle.

7:59 pm

lil*monkey

No such thing as too much stroodle or strudel!

8:00 pm

phandmd

8:00 pm

rururocks

too much stroodle will give you the toodles

auugh?

8:07 pm

To oogle caboodle is all fine and doodle here.

8:07 pm

rururocks

*drama time *

8:07 pm

uusue2

I baked two dozen lovely gluten-free brownies for a big shindig we are having tomorrow, and the dog ate half of them!

8:07 pm

lil*monkey

auuughoodle!

8:07 pm

uusue2

I am VERY annoyed with her.

8:07 pm

cosdem

oogie boogie?

8:07 pm

rururocks

chocolate?

8:08 pm

uusue2

Yes, chocolate.

8:08 pm

uusue2

NOT good for her.

8:08 pm

MollyL

How did the dog get access to the brownies?

8:08 pm

lil*monkey

I made brownies too! Mine are intact! nyah nyah

8:08 pm

rururocks

if the dog ate chocolate.. take her to the vet immediately.. it is toxic to dogs.. it is an emergency

8:08 pm

uusue2

They were on the countertop, cooling on racks, and she reached up and ate them.

8:08 pm

rururocks

or call an emergency vet to ask

8:08 pm

uusue2

She is a rather large dog.

8:09 pm

MollyL

Dogs are allowed on the countertop?

8:09 pm

rururocks

call your vet.. I mean it.. sue.. it's really poisonous to dogs

8:09 pm

uusue2

Frank seems to think she'll be ok; there isn't all that much chocolate in them.

8:09 pm

phandmd

it also depends on the chocolate. Milk is less dangerous than dark.

8:09 pm

rururocks

don't delay

8:09 pm

uusue2

No, she is certainly NOT allowed on the countertop!

8:09 pm

uusue2

it was a brownie mix, the chocolate comes from cocoa powder

8:10 pm

rururocks

still to be safe .. call your vet

8:11 pm

rururocks

where is jes to be found when you really need her

8:11 pm

uusue2

I will.

8:11 pm

MollyL

12 brownies is a lot of chocolate. A call to the vet sounds on the safe side.

8:12 pm

rururocks

good thing we all weren't there.. there wouldn't be ANY left

8:13 pm

uusue2

:-)

8:13 pm

rururocks

gluten or not

8:13 pm

rururocks

I have a dog counter top story

8:14 pm

MollyL

I'm trying to figure out how to snitch Lil's all gluten, lots of chocolate, cheesecake brownies.

8:14 pm

uusue2

do tell, ruru!

8:14 pm

uusue2

ooh, cheesecake brownies sound really good!!

8:15 pm

MollyL

I bet you have a counter top story too, that has nothing to do with dogs (I hope)

8:17 pm

rururocks

I was having a tasting group of friends over.. so I pulled out a prime rib roast to rest on the counter (with balsamic vegetables).. to cool.. and got busy with the tasting.. and our new rescue dog Chance.. (who was a big time counter surfer) somehow got in the kitchen and pulled the roast down to the floor where all three dogs in the kitchen pretty much demolished the roast and veggies leaving us with nothing.. we had to order in Pizza :D

8:17 pm

uusue2

anyway I have put the dog in the bedroom for the moment, she is quiet, Frank has gone out to get some ingredients so I can make more brownies *sigh*

8:17 pm

uusue2

wow, a whole prime rib! Doggie heaven!!

8:17 pm

rururocks

I think you should take the dog to the vet .. really sue

8:17 pm

uusue2

I can't until Frank gets back with the car

8:18 pm

rururocks

unbelievable.. $145 cut of meat

8:18 pm

rururocks

you can call the vet.. and let them determine the urgency

8:18 pm

uusue2

I've been googling a bit, looks like a large dog would have to eat an awful lot of brownies to get really sick

8:18 pm

uusue2

well, that

8:18 pm

uusue2

that's probably a good idea, I think they have an emergency number

8:19 pm

rururocks

please.. I'll feel a lot better

8:20 pm

uusue2

hmmm, they refer to out-of-town places after hours, all of which are 30 miles away or more

8:21 pm

PeggySue

just call to find out....also, mouse traps on counter work incredible to teach dogs to stay away!

8:22 pm

PeggySue

feer

8:22 pm

PeggySue

reef

8:22 pm

MollyL

Sue, do a Google search on chocolate being poison for dogs. Ru isn't kidding.

8:23 pm

MollyL

And large dogs are not immune.

8:23 pm

rururocks

call frank and tell him to come home with the car. and keep the dog near you.

8:24 pm

MollyL

It seems older dogs have a bigger problem with this.

8:25 pm

dan2bit

evening all! damn needlecase

8:26 pm

HarryHood

ty for that dan. nbt!

8:27 pm

dan2bit

glad it helped

8:28 pm

uusue2

so apparently i have to induce vomiting. sigh

8:29 pm

HarryHood

sorry sue :(

8:29 pm

HarryHood

is there doggie ipecac?

8:31 pm

MollyL

Oh I just learned that syrup of ipecac is a no-no for kids when poisoning is suspected.

8:32 pm

HarryHood

yeah ipecac was recommended when I had my first, but has since become looked down upon

8:33 pm

rururocks

Can you get on it sue?

8:35 pm

HarryHood

halfway. this is a tough grid.

8:35 pm

MollyL

Same here Harry. But my first was many years before your first, I think. : )

8:36 pm

HarryHood

my first was 2001 - my wife was quite pregnant on 9/11, and was working on a surgery rotation in a hospital in NJ where one of the nurses had a husband in the wtc and freaked out in the middle of a surgery

8:37 pm

HarryHood

woo! got the 8

8:38 pm

uusue2

ok, the dog actually LIKED the mixture of milk and hydrogen peroxide that the vet suggested (I swear, this dog will eat anything!). Frank is out with her now hoping for some action. I am going to go bake some more.

8:38 pm

HarryHood

that's totally disgusting sue

8:38 pm

uusue2

I'll put an update in my profile once things settle down.

8:40 pm

rururocks

Thank you sue

8:40 pm

cosdem

I put my dog outside when I bake cookies, cakes or brownies. JUst dont wanna risk it. Glad you called the vet in time it seems.

8:41 pm

dan2bit

firewords! tx all cluers

8:41 pm

MollyL

Good idea Cos. If the dog is prone to get up on the counter, it's better to isolate it when baking with chocolate.

8:41 pm
