worzel
I've twisted many things in my time, but never a head lol
2:59 am
grannyrose
just clip him one, behind the left ear...use a brick...it always worked when he was a young one.
2:59 am
frogface
my headache is probably a cold or hayfever, but worzy..........would not have a clue what caused that to happen lol
2:59 am
worzel
Is that why my ears stick out so much?
2:59 am
puglet
I was talking about the shoulder
3:00 am
worzel
Right, all these broads picking on me - I'm going for a ciggie!!! Love youuuuuuuu!!!! *minipoof*
3:00 am
grannyrose
they used to stick out much more....your alter ego as a child was dumbo, the elephant...lol
3:00 am
frogface
my shoulder probably was just twisted in the night
3:01 am
frogface
are you sure that was because of his ears mum lol
3:02 am
grannyrose
don has to go see an orthopaedic surgeon. his last x-rays and ultrasound show a huge spur in his shoulder.
3:02 am
puglet
as many smokes he runs out for Iam surprise hes got the energy to make it back to the laptop--lol Poor frog--lol
3:03 am
puglet
thats got to be ouchy for Don
3:03 am
frogface
what's that, can they remove it
3:03 am
grannyrose
i hate that, frog. if i fall asleep on my left side, my shoulder gives me absolute gip the next morning.
3:03 am
puglet
when is he going Rose
3:04 am
puglet
brb need some coffee--anyone up for a cup
3:04 am
grannyrose
yes, frog. arthroscopically. pugs, ASAP. we have a very good surgeon who specialises in sports injuries.
3:05 am
frogface
no thanks pug, worzy making me a tea thanks anyway
3:06 am
grannyrose
frog, a spur is an over-growth of bone, usually caused by an inflammatory reaction. he fell pretty heavily on it some years ago at work.
3:06 am
frogface
ouch, sounds bad
3:09 am
worzel
Mum did you know that a spur in a dog is called Spondilytis
3:10 am
grannyrose
same thing worzel, as for a human
3:11 am
puglet
Rose, please let us know how Don comes out
3:12 am
grannyrose
will do, pugs. it won't be for some weeks yet. this surgeon is very good, and as such, there is a long wait to see him.
3:12 am
worzel
I had a springer spaniel that had spondilytis. He was OK if he didn't bounce around too much, but springer's are notoriously hyperactive, so it was difficult to keep him under control. The vet quoted us £3,800 to operate on him, but said it would only last for about a year and he'd have to have it done again as the growth would come back. Vets certainly know how to squeeze, don't they?
3:14 am
grannyrose
hmmm, much the same cost as a surgeon for humans. if you take into account the cost of hospital bed, nurses, theatre time and equipment and staff, plus the anaesthetist and surgeon's assistant. yup, that's sounds about right.
3:14 am
puglet
I could kind of picture you as a springer Wor-lol
3:14 am
worzel
Di just said so can she - especially with my ears . . .
3:16 am
puglet
I dont know about where you guys live,but here you can take out health insurance for animals for such stuff
3:18 am
worzel
We can take out health insurance too, and I did have insurance with him but the thing is our insurance companies are notoriously unscrupulous and when it comes to renewing the insurance the following year they take into account any work that has had to be done the previous year and won't cover that ailment. It's an absolute disgrace, it really is
3:19 am
puglet
I never had that kind of money and I done most of the shots and care myself, even on my horses when I had them
3:19 am
frogface
we've got a charity, the pdsa, who see your dogs and cats for a minimal fee
3:20 am
puglet
that would be nice to have here
3:21 am
worzel
It also costs £110 for ONE xray! The thing is with our insurance companies you have to pay an excess on any work that has to be done. The excess is usually around £75, so basically, even though you've paid into an insurance scheme they're conning you into paying the first £75 of any procedure. Insurance companies are a rip-off in my opinion
3:21 am
puglet
I had a darn mule once, that would tighten up his hide so that when you try giving him a shot the needle would bend--lol
3:21 am
frogface
they are a godsend, my last dog had a tumour removed by them, don't know what i'd have done otherwise
3:23 am
grannyrose
ditto diane. we have the rspca...it's just a token fee sometimes for th5 services.
3:23 am
puglet
we did have a thing here where people took their dogs and cats once a month for pick up to have them fixed or get their shots but the local vets put up such a fuss they quit it for they were losing too much money
3:24 am
frogface
that is bad pug, they should be thinking about the animal.......not money
3:25 am
puglet
thats how I feel too, frog
3:25 am
worzel
We have the rspca over here, but they are not as good as the US and AUS versions. They are coming under a lot of fire in this country because they are not actually helping animals any more. Well, they're not helping PEOPLE with their animals, and have done away with their policy of never putting down a healthy animal. Plus I also have personal experience of the UK rspca. Had to call them once about my neighbours dog and they refused to even come out!
3:26 am
puglet
we have a farm store here where I can get the meds for most of their shots--so I do it myself
3:26 am
worzel
will have to dash off we have a workman just rung up and told us he's coming in five minutes!!! have a gr8 day/eventide everyone and take care and love you all xx!

a question about daffodils - do you tie them off after they bloom? I've been doing that and I don't know if it's worth it
6:30 am
JBV
now if we only spoke Welsh and Urdu - that would help with babble, wouldn't it?
6:31 am
rubyfoo
with daffs, I just pinch off the dead blossoms and, as the leaves get ugly, I cut them down a bit
6:31 am
Scrabbler
I never heard of that, JBV. I don't cut the leaves until they are dry and brown. The leaves provide energy for the bulb.
6:31 am
JBV
I was taught to fold them over and tie them down
6:31 am
grannyrose
jbv, if you live in a particularly windy area, yes tie them off. my garden, although quite large, is very sheltered.
6:31 am
JBV
it's a lot of kneeling and bending
6:32 am
JBV
no, not particularly windy, but I heard it was to stop the growth of the leaves, to protect the bulb
6:32 am
rubyfoo
it's bad enough kneeling and bending to groom the pups. Beyond that, the flowers had better take care of theselves
6:32 am
JBV
well, I don't have dogs, so no excuse there ruby, except laziness :)
6:33 am
rubyfoo
the dogs are killing my knees
6:33 am
grannyrose
hmmmm, i never do anything to the leaves. after they have flowered i let the leaves die off naturally, that way the nutrients in the leaves are re-absorbed into the bulbs.
6:33 am
rubyfoo
they require about 2 hrsnight of combing and cuddling
6:33 am
JBV
well, thanks, grannyrose, you just saved me a job ! : )

and I've been feeling guilty about not doing it - but we've had such horrible weather her e- rain, cold, more rain

i do stake the gladioli, though. they seem to be more fragile than the daffs. and bend very easily.
6:34 am

I hope they'll be able to push a wheelchair when I can no longer walk lol
6:35 am
Scrabbler
Anyone have hellibores? They are deer-resistant so I have considered getting those.
6:35 am

The only flowers I stake are the peonies and, of course, the tomatoes.
6:35 am
rubyfoo
I've seen pix of hellebores and they are beautiful but I've never grown them.
6:36 am
grannyrose
i just let the hellibores do th5 own thing. again, as i said the garden is sheltered.
6:36 am

My big revelation with this, my first garden, was that perennials aren't necessarily perennial. I put in delphinium, lupine, anemones - all of which lasted a couple of years and then, pffft

hi rose, I don't usually see you here at this hour
7:38 am
MimiCat
I love when I complain about getting older and people say "It's better than the alternative" to which I reply "How do you know?" That shuts 'em up.
7:39 am
grannyrose
okay, it's after 10:30pm. time for my bed, maybe even some sleep. will give it my best shot, but not hopeful. * sigh * xoxox to you all.

Dying doesn't worry me. I had a near-death experience years ago and I can tell you it is amazingly wonderful on "the other side." I believe when we die the spirit leaves and goes on to continue its destiny. That body that's left behind was merely a vessel. When I was above my body and looking at it, I felt no real attachment to it....I wasn't there...I had moved on.
7:42 am
grannyrose
*poof*
7:43 am
MimiCat
There is definitely plastic surgery in my future!
7:43 am
crosshair
nor me, mimi. I have already used up a few lives.
7:43 am
crosshair
yes, we Have a body, we ARE a soul
7:43 am
MimiCat
Of course, everyone is entitled to their own belief system...this one works for me.
7:43 am
MimiCat
You are SO right, crossy!
7:46 am
o-o
"no attachment to" the body .... "definitely plastic surgery in the future." Why bother if there is no attachment?
7:46 am
MimiCat
Going to go make some breakfast. NO WORK TODAY!! Making a big batch of oatmeal (the real stuff) and have lots of fresh fruit and brown sugar and almond milk on hand. YUM.
7:47 am
MimiCat
You misunderstood o-o...I said when I was "in spirit" there was no attachment to the body. While I'm still on this plane there certainly is...can't help that.
7:51 am
o-o
The body is a vessel ... will surgery enhance its ability to carry the soul?
7:53 am
MimiCat
Not the point. Sorry you only want to argue rather than join in the spirit of the conversation. Now I'm really gone....poink!
7:55 am
o-o
A serious question you avoid ... who is the antagonist?
7:56 am
Anniebrook
name that proper noun.....a state in the USA
7:57 am
MimiCat
Found a couple more words, so still here, unfortunately. Not avoiding any question...just refuse to engage in a battle of wits with an unarmed person. Bye again and hugs all around...almost.
7:57 am

well, just adding a bit for those who want their skin to look younger and feel younger without plastic surgery or injecting bacteria into your face...uthrevealed.com one of my favorite things to use for myself
7:57 am

Not even a valid point. Do you purposely try to NOT understand what people say? Your world must be bleak indeed o-o to consistently engage in negativity. I feel sorry for you.

cross anytime our cat is in th kitchen she meows at my husband or if he is near the cat bowls

if i let any food or water bowl get too low, our cats will lay down i a relaxed pose and try and flip the bowls upsidedown
10:39 am

i end up with dry food and water all over the floor
10:39 am
MLFAN17
cross my cat will move her food bowl with her paws by tapping/sliding it or slightly getting it off the floor
10:40 am
crosshair
so, i found a water dish made from glazed clay and it weighs 4 pounds. that way they cannot flip it over
10:40 am

she taps the water bowl which is deep so that the water will move before she drinks it or while she is doing so

If you kn5 someone, you stab them. I am assuming it is the plural of that, although weird.
11:25 am

it should be with a v

hello everybody
11:43 am
helensgirlkid
I have been wondering if there is a financial problem over getting a new server. Maybe we should ask him if we should do a whip-around.
11:44 am
rururocks
I am beginning to wonder if he even cares about this site
11:44 am
rururocks
hi ruby
11:45 am
helensgirlkid
It gets fixed every night - that would 't happen if he didn't care. Think of all the sites that spend two or three days getting sorted out.
11:45 am
MollyL
Well one thing is for sure, if the server is acting up, you have to contact Dr. God. Otherwise he has no knowledge that there is trouble.
11:46 am
cybernan
on my way - hagd everyone :)
11:46 am

I thought Dr. God was omniscient, like his namesake
11:48 am
helensgirlkid
Always seems that way to me, too, ruby!
11:50 am
MollyL
Well, believe it or not, Dr. God is not all knowing. And if no one emails him that the server is acting up, he won't know there are problems. And there are problems every day, several times a day.
11:50 am
rubyfoo
I always think it's my computer
11:51 am
helensgirlkid
If you haven seen it yet, sooner or later you'll get a screen saying the server is having a tantrum - signed by Dr. God
11:54 am
rururocks
I see it EVERY night at 11:05.. I wrote to him about it twice. still happens every night
11:54 am
MollyL
That is an automatic message and does not mean that Dr. God is aware of the problem.
11:54 am
rururocks
he doesn't do anything about it. or hasn't yet

Just like Lickety's "Clues are up" is an automatic message.

4:55 pm
crosshair
ahh yes, i remember now
4:55 pm
crosshair
this was the funeral right?
4:56 pm
jaxx7
I feel very proud of myself.
4:56 pm

nothing like being a turd at someones funeral. i would of slipped a pack of laxatives into his coffee
4:56 pm
jaxx7
Yes. The widow was very gracious unlike her son.
4:57 pm
crosshair
yup alway let others lower themselves,; true class and dignity will shine through... i still would of dosed the bugger and given him a case of the trotts :)
4:59 pm
jaxx7
I even held my tongue when I overheard Simon saying that he was very proud of Ashley in his suit. I bought the suit and he took the credit.
5:00 pm
crosshair
you know the truth of things. You were there to pay respects, nothing more. You shoud be proud of yourself
5:01 pm

I am very proud of my daughter too. half way through the wake Simon insisted she went out with him and proceeded to harangue her about her behaviour!!!!
5:02 pm

a well raised child is a thing of pride to a parent. Knowing how to handle messy situations properly is a good skill to have.

I thought she acted with dignity throughout. The relatives that had known her for the twelve years kept asking why she had been left out of the immediate family's pews. Mutual friends were making comments and she never let him down by telling the truth. I thank goodness it is over now - just my jehova's Witness stepsister from Australia to deal with next. Oh Joy
5:07 pm
crosshair
Ahh yes, they love to testify, do they not?
5:08 pm
jaxx7
jes, it was my daughter's partner of 12 years who refused to let her join the cortege or the immediate family pews. I tried to speak to him afterwards and he just shouldered me aside. You don't expect anything but grunts from pigs and he didn't let me down.
5:08 pm

but, each to their own as long as they are not knocking at my door at 06:30 on some Saturday morning, telling me how i can be saved

5:10 pm
jaxx7
they did that once to my husband when he was a trawlerman. he had worked all night and was sleeping when they knocked and woke him up. They then said they had got our name from my stepsister. they were told in no uncertain manner to get off the property or he'd get them arrested.
5:10 pm

never, ever get between a daughter and her mum. let them love, hate, laugh cry, spit venom at each other, and, in the end, it will all work out.

So many eggs. I was longing for a proper sausage or a bacon and egg quiche.
5:31 pm

That is not assuming everyone is a vegetarian. That is imposing your dietary choices on others, which is wrong.
5:31 pm
crosshair
either assumtion is wrong
5:32 pm
jaxx7
crossy, has the thought of all those veggies without a piece of meat sent you quiet?
