2:58 am
grannyrose
pugs, we have been very busy. don's daughter flies in saturday AM, so i am trying to ready the guest bedroom for her. seeing as it has become an overly large storage room, we had a lot of stuff to move out, and then i found the bed.
2:59 am
grannyrose
* giggle * she'd have to be a miniature...
2:59 am
puglet
maybe Wor could do it for you in his mankini--lol

3:00 am
worzel
i'd even do it without the mankini . . .
3:00 am
grannyrose

3:54 am
grannyrose
i will work it out closer to the ti4. maybe she might have to bring her sister with her. *shrug* or maybe she will get ti4 off for good behaviour...lol
3:56 am
grannyrose
*giggle* i was stunned by the jeweler's quote for my eternity ring. don said i was worth every cent. besides, he said, you served your ti4. *shaking head* i cannot make him understand what a blessing he is to me.
3:57 am

3:58 am
sprite
had to do the cooking yesterday, rose, and did a load of laundry, so the back is still hurting. Not much plans for today. More laundry, of course, my girl came home safely from Spain and goes to England ne4 week with school.

4:00 am
grannyrose
nice, about your girl, dear. bet she was chuffed at her negotiating planes etc on her own. england? how lovely! i have been looking at tour packages for france, and wondering if we can have an open ticket for departure, that way we can "do" UK, Holland(of course), belgium, italy while we are over there.
4:01 am
sprite
sounds good, rose. I would say an open ticket shouldn't be a problem.
4:03 am
grannyrose
when the inheritance comes through, will consult with bank, try and work out what to leave and what to take...money-wise i mean. have to cover expenses here while we are over there.
4:03 am

4:06 am

*grins* They can be so obnoxious, can't they, rose. My husband just asked if I had asked Tim to bring a newspaper from shopping, yesterday. I said no. He said, don't you know I love to have the saturday newspaper in the weekend? I said: even if I had thought about it, no way he could have bought you a saturday newspaper on Friday. Ass.
4:10 am

4:47 am
Patxxx
Sometimes being absent
4:48 am
crosshair
well, lickety and dr god are independant of each other, so i think there is no relation other that to perhaps save our sanity
5:08 am

Saturday is a great day for good, meaty grid - not one of these puny ones.
5:38 am

these tiny ones are also, more often than not, just a bunch of tiny, annoying babblets;)
5:38 am

Thanks Crossy. Don't know the set-up. Sorry it took so long to reply but it is early cricket season here and two men can't find their spare kit without my help. I purposely never go near the kits except to wash and I hand over the washed gear in front of witnesses. Ta again,
5:40 am
crosshair
lol patxx i can imagine setting up a cricket game on the front lawn here. The novelty of it all would stop traffic
5:40 am

Crossy just sent you thanks but it's not appeared yet.
5:40 am

just a slow connexion today:(
5:46 am
Patxxx
Cricket is one of the few games left which is still mostly men, although our UK women's team have just been the world. They don't have rules like no drinking, no sex etc so it is still very much a social occasion. The best part is: no Diva behaviour allowed or you are out!
5:46 am
Patxxx
'Beat the world'. Sorry again.
5:48 am
crosshair
you have a sex break during half time in a cricket mach???!! I think i had better look into the rules of this game again!

we have a pair of morning doves outside the window. Nice to hear all the birds once again.:)
5:56 am
Patxxx
Do remember how much rain we get here and that means lots of matches called off, abandoned etc. Stoicism being an essential mindset for the game plus wet sandwiches and a mouldy tan.
5:59 am
crosshair
yes, i remember you were a tad on the dampish side this winter. Over here we were just happy to get the snowbanks low enough so we could see the stop signs once again while driving;)

MimiCat
Yes, he's home. He was only in Children's Hospital 24 hours. He is 3 and his brother is nearly 2 and both had fevers Sunday night. Early Monday only the 3-yr-old developed a full body rash that was very itchy and which started on his legs. Pediatrician gave him prednisone and it didn't help so she asked them to go to the hospital where they ran tests. All the really bad tests came back negative. They still don't know what it was but the other one did develop a slight rash as well. I'm thinking it was some sort of virus they picked up outside. We have valley fever here in the soil and air and maybe they had an allergic reaction to it. Anyway, crisis is over but I thought you might be interested and may have insight.
7:41 am
Scrabbler
Yes, Aloy. I thought I would get stuck quickly as the grid is small.
7:41 am

((Aloy)) Yep...quite an ordeal. For a couple of days I felt like I was sitting on top of dynamite waiting for it to go off.

Francis Bacon:
One of the most influential minds of the late 16th century. A statesman, a philosopher, a writer, and a scientist, he was even rumored to have written some of Shakespeare's plays.
How he died: Stuffing snow into a chicken
One afternoon in 1625, Bacon was watching a snowstorm and was struck by the wondrous notion that maybe snow could be used to preserve meat in the same way that salt was used. Determined to find out, he purchased a chicken from a nearby village, killed it, and then, standing outside in the snow, attempted to stuff the chicken full of snow to freeze it. The chicken never froze, but Bacon did.
8:15 am

yay! a bonus!
8:16 am

Well the idea was right on anyway.

Wow, sue. Our little guy rebounded quite quickly, thank goodness. Sure sounded like something he picked up like that. He apparently had the rash all over his body but, as I said, it started with his legs...thus, picking it up from the ground?

i watched a youtube last night also. Dale has been sick for the past week. they think pneumonia, and now i am feeling a bit in the chest. so i need to do this before the bottom falls out.
8:41 am
crosshair
and keep that drill perfectly level
8:42 am
crosshair
and take care of yourself. get a doc to check those lungs:)
8:43 am
suefrad625
I have to round thingy for the whole and the paddles for the thing that sticks out. it is a metal door. I figure i will hit it with a nail first to give it a spot to sit in.
8:43 am
crosshair
that way the bit will not wander
8:44 am
suefrad625
you know what pisses me off. Dale went to the doctor, who showed him a spot on his lung from the xray on thursday. They never called back to tell him what it was!!!
8:45 am
Anniebrook
Call the doctor.
8:45 am
crosshair
docs can be a pita at times. took ours 2 weeks to fill a ventolin scrip. Had to beg the pharmacy for a puffer
8:47 am
Anniebrook
be back later to finish
8:47 am
crosshair
ours Never calls back with good news. After a test, you either have to make a new appt to get results or call them

this same week, the surgeon tells me John (son) doesn't have a hernia so he could have participated in the Worlds Cheer Championships. But, they don't know what the bulge in his abdomen is. And people wonder why I am a nut and gray!
8:48 am
crosshair
you have to be very proactive in your healthcare these days. 2nd, 3rd and 4th opinions, hunting them down. pin that doc down and drag the information out with a chain if that is what it takes
8:48 am
suefrad625
they are such crap heads. I hate how they use the word "Normal". Like having a baby is an everyday event for THAT woman. Or any situation that is NOT Normal for the rest of us.
8:49 am

(wishing Crossy would explain how docs can be a pita sometimes...)

Bich, I agree. Scrolling the chat log for clues is the same as looking at the list. Actually, clues in the chat log give you much more information than looking at the list.

2:38 pm

of course what scrolling the chat log IS, is staying within the game to assist you and not going to an outside program as an additional aide in finding words.

2:43 pm
crosshair
i cannot believe that i did not see th 5/14 till now:)

I think it all depends on what your personal goal is regarding playing the game. If it's finding words on your own, that is one thing. If it's finding words with assistance, that is another. Everyone gets to choose how they play.

yup. there are many ways to play

My husband is being a big tw4/8 right now.Husband is ho4/8ring over me because he wants computer.I'll give him laptop so he doesn't get me4/5 and cause a ri4/4. I Hate listening to his vo5/18 saying tr5/10 comments about Babble. This ends the ex 6/33 of my Babbling. I hope that you've found some ma 4/5 it 4/5s on your list. Now I'm going to go make some me4/5loaf for dinner tonight.Then I am going to watch the movie "Remember the Ti5/10s".I did not edit this te 4/9 so there may be some mistakes.See you guys ne4/9 ti4/5 I return to Babbleland.Goodbye for now babblers!
