did you husband call the fire department to be on standby?
12:28 am

12:30 am

maybe 50. .that's the last one
12:30 am
flosey
whew! how about 1 large one
12:31 am
cybernan
one for every 10 years
12:31 am
saanichcat
However, I have a rule : the older you are, the longer you get to celebrate. I'm at about two weeks now
12:31 am
flosey
nice idea Saan, I like that

I was out on our deck watching the fireworks
12:59 am
saanichcat
finally got that un 8
1:01 am
cybernan
It's nice to celebrate and they are spectacular, but I don't think we need a half hour show -- 15 minutes and think of all the hungry people that could be fed with the rest!

xoxox dear sprite. i am doing much better today, hun. what sort of night have you had?
4:07 am
sprite
hi sweetie! Am so glad to hear it! *hugs* That was a bit of a scare, honey. My night was pretty good. Another ok dream too.
4:08 am
grannyrose
oh, wow, sprite. that is so good to hear.
4:10 am
sprite
can't tell you how happy I am that you are feeling better. *hugs*
4:12 am
grannyrose

4:13 am
grannyrose
ugh * for you*
4:13 am
rubyfoo
good morning.
4:13 am

4:14 am
sprite
hello ruby *hug*
4:14 am
grannyrose
don showed me how to set up google calendar. so every night i will get a reminder to take my patch off early in the evening.
4:14 am
grannyrose
whoot sprite...and of course you said no, right??
4:14 am
sprite
that is wonderful and smart, rose. Such an easy thing to forget but such nasty consequences
4:15 am
grannyrose
{{hugs}} darling ruby. lovely to see you dear.
4:15 am
sprite
hahaha silly rose! Sure, I said no to a whole day of family constellations for nothing :)
4:16 am
grannyrose
*giggle* and you're like, and who's army is gonna stop me??
4:17 am
grannyrose
what does himself think? sprite? i bet he is pleased as punch for you.
4:17 am
sprite
you mean my love?
4:18 am
grannyrose
yes, sprite, what does your love think?
4:18 am
sprite
he doesn't know yet, lol. He will be away for the weekend and I am gonna need a car... will have to borrow one somewhere.
4:19 am
grannyrose
ooohhhh. you are home alone? want my marbles to throw under the bad man's feet?
4:20 am
sprite
*giggle* No honey, I don't mind the occasional time on my own, to be honest. And I love it that he is having a good time. Just... that car... I want it. Maybe I can drop him off and pick him up... hmmm lemmethink...
4:21 am
grannyrose
such delish smells through my house. i have been cooking osso bucco all day in the slow cooker. all the vegs are in there too. all don has to do is thicken the gravy a little, and cook some rice.
4:21 am
sprite
*beaming right over to rose's armed with plate, spoon and knife*
4:22 am
grannyrose
*giggle* want me to freeze some for you, hun?
4:23 am
sprite
hahahaha sure, and keep it until next year :D
4:24 am
grannyrose
just got an SOS from pugs. have you got one, too?
4:26 am
sprite
I have an email from her... is that what you mean?
4:27 am
grannyrose
yeah....she sounds really sick. told her to try steam inhalations.
4:30 am
sprite
lol, I told her she might want to cut up an onion tonight and put it on a saucer next to her bed.
4:30 am
sprite
steam with a bit of camomile is a good idea too
4:32 am
grannyrose
i suggested Vicks mentholated chest rub, or eucalyptus oil in the water. i really don't mind, whatever works.
4:34 am
sprite
our pugs is wise enough to pick the ideas that fit her best :) For me, eucalyptus and Vicks are too strong. They tend to make me feel worse.
4:52 am
grannyrose
just some last minute instructions to don re dinner. from all the clattering i think dinner is on it's way....lol...says she hopefully.
4:52 am
sprite
oh that nice moment when your mouth is watering and you know you can indulge shortly :)
4:53 am
grannyrose
sprite, have you ever tried tincture of benzoin in an inhalation. other names tinc benz or friar's balsam.
4:53 am
sprite
let me see what it is called here
4:54 am
jaxx7
Hi, Ruby and Rose
4:54 am
grannyrose
it's a very old preparation.
4:54 am
grannyrose
hey ya jax
4:54 am
jaxx7
It is indeed but often the oldies are best (as I should know)
4:55 am
sprite
oh yes, we have that here as well. Thanks rose, will try that next time.
4:55 am
jaxx7
It might be hard to get hold of these days.
4:56 am
grannyrose
lol, jax, it's still around. it is still the best stuff to put under adhesive dressings.
4:57 am
jaxx7
You mean the 'elf and safety gnomes have not spirited it away?
4:57 am
grannyrose
dinner on the way. xoxox to you all. sprite, i hope your day is kind to you, sweetie.
4:58 am
grannyrose
lol, nah jax. it is still used, particularly by physios. now i must really go. xox
4:58 am
jaxx7
My husband has gone fishing despite his painful knee and against all advice so I have the luxury of a day to myself.
4:58 am
sprite
enjoy your dinner, rose
4:59 am
sprite
so nice, now and then, to have a full day to yourself
5:00 am
jaxx7
I intend to start knitting an aran sweater later while watching Wimbledon.
5:03 am
sprite
that is the best. I love knitting while watching TV. Am working on a vest, a full circle with the center on the back, the top part is like a shawl and with sleeves cut in.
5:03 am
jaxx7
Which yarn?
5:04 am
sprite
a mixed yarn, black with autumn colours
5:05 am
jaxx7
I find knitting black difficult as I have a problem with my eyes. I tend to kep to lighter colours.
5:06 am
sprite
yeah, it definitely makes it harder. I need good light on my hands now to do it. Eyes are getting a little older here as well.
5:07 am
jaxx7
I bemused the experts at Moorfield Eye hospital. They sent me away to wait for technology to catch up with me!
5:07 am
sprite
the nerve!
5:09 am
sprite
my grandmother was an avid knitter too and she had... oh dear, not sure of the word... catharacts? Got worse and worse and at last she could only knit socks, and my grandfather had to pick up the stitches for the heel.
5:09 am
jaxx7
I confounded them as my problem had never been encountered before. I had all sorts of foreign specialists poking, prodding and testing, all to no avail. It has been a lot better until about a month ago and now I will have to go back and see if Technology has caught up with me.
5:10 am
sprite
how very inconvenient, jaxx :( What is the problem with your eyes, if it is ok to ask?
5:14 am
jaxx7
cataracts is the word, I think. I have lovely coloured lights that alter the colours I see. Orange can become a muddy brown and so on. In my left eye I have a curtain of blue that comes across about a third of my vision. I have pink swirls that become granular as they fade in both eyes and, at the moment, a bright pink 'doughnut'in the right eye with a lovely silver edge to it. They don't fade when I close my eyes so I have a lovely firework display to send me to sleep.
5:16 am
jaxx7
I suspect it is a brain problem.
5:16 am
sprite
wow, that is rather spectacular, jaxx. Sucks to be so special, though, doesn't it. I hope that they have someting to offer you by now.
Yeah, that is the word, cataracts. the kind that can't be operated upon, she had.
5:16 am
gran
st 6/21 and st 8/50 any clues please
5:17 am
sprite
hi gran, st8 = first part of where your food goes + not even but **d + 2 vowels.
5:17 am
jaxx7
My B-i-l has had his operated on but he had left them so long that they took longer to operate on. Perhaps that is what happened to your gran
5:18 am
sprite
not sure what the right names are in english. Here we differentiate between 'green' and 'gray' catarracts. One can be removed with operations. The other one is not treatable.
5:18 am
jaxx7
I have the 8 but not the 6.
5:19 am
sprite
ah, glaucoma, is the other one.
5:19 am
sprite
me too, no st6 yet
5:19 am
jaxx7
Hold on st6/21 is the pl of st5 - a horse that is riden
5:20 am
jaxx7
ridden even
5:20 am
sprite
ah, thanks jaxxx
5:21 am
jaxx7
They test for glaucoma when you get your eyes tested. It is a pressure problem. You can go blind if you leave that too long.
5:21 am
jaxx7
You have given me an extra Chromosome! lol
5:22 am
sprite
yes, that is what happened to her. It damages the eye nerve.
5:22 am
sprite
roflolllll I am sorry! jaxx :D
5:24 am
jaxx7
There is also wet and dry macular generation - I know about it all having been tested for everything over the past 25 years. (except that eaxtra chromosome :))
5:25 am
jaxx7
I put in an extra a for good measure!
5:25 am
sprite
*grin* Am pretty sure your eyes can't be explained by that extra chromosome.
5:26 am
jaxx7
I found it a little hard to explain the problem to a Japanese woman who didn't speak a word of English.
5:26 am
sprite
almost impossible, I think
5:28 am
jaxx7
I don't know if she had any idea what it might be as she couldn't say. then there was the time that the technician at Moorfield put 10 x the correct dose of drops in and I couldn't focus for a week afterwards. They apologised very prettily.
5:29 am
sprite
as they should. Ten times the normal dose, good grief.
5:30 am
jaxx7
You have no idea how many times we got lost in London because my husband wouldn't ask for directions and I couldn't see the signs.
5:30 am
sprite
hahahaha! Isn't that a typical male thing, not willing to ask for directions?
5:32 am
jaxx7
It is. You would have thought in the circumstances though, he might have relented. One time we got lost and he did ask a policeman how to get on the motorway. Said policeman didn't know so he asked, wait for it, a clown on a unicycle with a monkey on his shoulder who just happened to be passing.

5:39 am

ok that is an odd word for me.
Start with the guy that is around at 25 December. End with the internet lingo abbrev for laughing out loud.
5:39 am
grannyrose
back briefly, sa8...sa5 claus + abbreviation for laugh out loud.
5:39 am

yeah, that F, one wouldn't expect it to render that many words there
5:39 am

I use that also, but apparently not as well as you! I went right over many times! Heading to NJ....see you in four days!
5:41 am
grannyrose
couldn't eat it every night. it was very rich.
5:41 am
sprite
it comes in alpha and beta variety. It is an organic compound that is classified as a sesquiterpene. So now you know. Made from the oil of sandalwood.
5:41 am
jaxx7
If I am to make a start on that sweater today, I must away and finish the Housework. bbl. Bye all

nice, sprite.
5:48 am
sprite
just sent out an email to someone who either goes herself or might know someone who does. I am not picky. Anyone who goes to my area will do. Am willing to take a train or bus for the last part.
5:48 am
sprite
not eager, but willing
5:49 am
grannyrose
hope you get a good response, sprite.
5:50 am

me too. Well, if all fails, I will chance it. I bet somebody will be willing to take me to some train station, right?

7:01 am
Trifioso
very upsetting night here.....tertiares little cat jumped at one of the window screens, and out she went. it was the second story, so she was badly injured, and spent the night in the animal hospital. poor little kitty :(
7:02 am
MLFAN17
trif that is so sad I really hope they can help the poor kitty BIG HUGS
7:02 am
Uneaixoise
aawww, so sorry, trif :-(
7:02 am
crosshair
poor kitty:(( we have to always mind our screens here now as the birds tease the cats to no end and they also jump at the screens
7:02 am
Trifioso
so far they have sutured up her lacerations and given her huge amounts of pain killers and did x rays and all that. I hate to mention it, but OH, the bill!!!!
7:02 am
Anniebrook
oh dear, poor little kitty
7:03 am
Trifioso
she will have to go back once a week for several weeks as they check on the bandages....
7:03 am
MLFAN17
trif unfortunately you are right about the bill
7:03 am
MLFAN17
anything broken?
7:03 am
Trifioso
its BRUTAL mlf...there go the new tires for my car...and primos
7:03 am
crosshair
I know it, trif. here, what you just mentioned so far would run to $1500.00 plus the $150.00 fee for the initial examination
7:04 am
Trifioso
the x rays showed no obvious fractures, but they are having another radiologist look today
7:04 am
MLFAN17
trif tires can be replaced easier then a pet can
7:04 am
Trifioso
you are in the right ball park, crossy.
7:04 am
MLFAN17
cross ouch
7:04 am
Trifioso
ouch for me too, mlf
7:05 am
MLFAN17
i just meant in general trif:)
7:05 am
MLFAN17
pet bills are never low
7:06 am
Trifioso
no no, I meant - the bill will be at least that here in america
7:06 am
Trifioso
its REALLY upsetting - how can it possibly be that much?
7:06 am
MLFAN17
trif all medical bills are such rip offs
7:07 am
Trifioso
indeed. Because her injuries were clearly severe, we legged it to the nearest place....and so they can charge us what they want, they know we are trapped
7:08 am
lbdawger
gm, everyone! clue for the ex5 after the mass leaving?
7:08 am
MLFAN17
its such crap. Trif same as where you get your tires
7:08 am
Trifioso
seriously though....who puts a cat down because of a screwed up leg? she is only a year old...
7:09 am
MLFAN17
we did that to our dog years ago
7:09 am
MLFAN17
ibd you mean the ex 7/8?
7:10 am
MLFAN17
trif its cheaper and if nothing can be done its the only option.
7:10 am
Trifioso
but see, something COULD be done....and therein lies the rub.
7:10 am
Trifioso
I just can't face saying to the cat...sorry, you have to die, because I can't afford to fix you. ugh!
7:11 am
lbdawger
according to Lickety, there are 2 ex6's an ex5 then the ex7/8 combo and ex5/6 combo.
7:11 am
MLFAN17
trif i dont disagree i have watched two cats suffer before they died. I dont really believe in putting a cat down but the suffering is just misery
7:11 am
MLFAN17
ibd ohi only have ex 7/8
7:12 am
Trifioso
please! At this point I am like, 2k in the hole for this cat. She better live FOREVER

7:14 am
crosshair
our first cat got ill, but we had no idea what was wrong with her. she Cried strangely when she pooped and had some rectal bleeding etc. 3k later, they informed us that she had rectal cancer and added another 300 to put her down and put her ashes in a decorative box. still paying for that bill:( but we love our pets
7:14 am
Trifioso
exactly.
7:16 am
MLFAN17
we think our cats here died of kidney failure
7:17 am
MLFAN17
sh 6 clue please?
7:18 am
crosshair
pet insurance is no better, you add 250/ year as a rider policy on your insurance and it offers a 1 time payout of 6k and that is it. with a 2k deductable, so no point in it
7:19 am
MLFAN17
that is ridiculous
7:19 am

so, it is for catastrophic injuries only
7:20 am

Best for your cat, trif. If the leg isn't broken, maybe you can learn to do dressing changes? I did that with one of ours who got an abcess from a cat claw wound - handled the drain and the dressings and cut the bills a lot.
7:36 am
periwinkle
yes that is a great idea Helen, Trif. ask the vet if you can be taught to do the dressing changes, that is if you want to. if you do make sure you can demonstrate how to do it before you leave the vet
7:37 am
periwinkle
when my cat was so sick 10 years ago she needed subcutaneous IV fluids. I asked to learn. the tech demonstrated it and then wanted to send me on my way. I insisted that I be able to do it myself before I left the vet.
7:38 am
helensgirlkid
It's not so much the needle and the tube and the little valve - it's the holding the cat still!
7:38 am
periwinkle
my cat was too sick to care at first. as she got stronger she would not sit still
7:39 am
periwinkle
there are vet techs who will make house calls. Trif. you could ask if that is available. that may be less expensive
7:39 am
Anniebrook
Has anyone seen MollyL? She has not been on and she usually is here in the morning.
7:40 am
periwinkle
I did not see her yesterday afternoon either, Annie. hope all is ok
7:40 am
periwinkle
she is not online at the moment
7:41 am
helensgirlkid
I didn't see her on last night, either -I wasn't on very long, but she's usually there the first hour after the flip.
7:42 am
helensgirlkid
There are also vets who will do at-home euthanasia - very much easier on the cat, and less expensive. But our most recent cat decided the time had come at 2 am, and house call was out of the question!
7:42 am
Anniebrook
perhaps she is on vacation. I hope she is well.
7:42 am
periwinkle
I did not know that Helen. that would have been less stressful on my cat.

I try to avoid that in my writings. I take after hemingway or Jack London in my tales. Keep the basic story easy to follow, but flesh out the novel with such exquisite descriptives that the ready can almost feel what the people in the book are feeling. No need to hit them over the head with a dictionary:)

Hello friends. May I have a clule for the st 8 please?
8:43 pm
jwr
would someone pass on to Penquis (email or next time you see name on Babble) that stopping the touchy touchpad to enable the mouse can be, I think, done by going to Control Panel, under Mouse, select Mouse Properties which displays the name of the touchpad (confusing huh!), look for box that says something like "Disable when external USB pointing device -- i.e., the mouse -- plug in" Reboot.
8:45 pm
stidmama
hey all -- how is the grid today?
8:46 pm
Bugsaw
Hey stid! It is pretty good actually. I am still blind to the st 8 tho.
8:46 pm
Bugsaw
are you enjoying your time off school yet?
8:48 pm
stidmama
I am only down to 134... LOL
8:48 pm
stidmama
I am sorry I haven't called, my long-distance on the regular phone isn't working. *sigh*
8:49 pm
Bugsaw
if I knew how to Face time you I would. I had my foot fixed on Monday and i am so much more comfortable!
8:50 pm
stidmama
I am finally starting to make progress. I thought it was just the end of year virus that was slowing me down, but I think it's actually just the really big relief of being home. Now that I am relaxed about never actually getting through all of the boxes and papers before I file them, I am able to make some progress.
8:50 pm
stidmama
YEAH!!!! I am SO GLAD you got that done!
8:50 pm
stidmama
Tom could walk you through how to set up facetime if you like, he is home.
8:50 pm
stidmama
How long will you be laid up this time?
8:51 pm
Bugsaw
That would be wonderful if he doesn't mind. I will go get the iPad. Then what do I turn on?
8:51 pm
stidmama
I will hand the computer to Tom.
8:53 pm
Bugsaw
I am back with the machine. Thanks stid. Then we can have a visit. Just don't notice the pyjamas and hair like Woody Woodpecker!
8:53 pm
stidmama
LOL here is Tom.
8:55 pm
stidmama
HI Bugsaw, this is Tom
8:56 pm
Bugsaw
I turned on Facetime, but now what
8:57 pm
stidmama
OK, do you know where the icon is for Facetime to open it?
8:58 pm
Bugsaw
Yes, I turned it on and added her name as a contact but now what
8:59 pm
Bugsaw
for this do I add her email or her phone number?
9:00 pm
stidmama
You should be able to reach her then by selecting her entry in the contacts list and select the FaceTime entry.
9:02 pm
Bugsaw
I just have name in there. What is the info needed to contact her though?
9:03 pm
stidmama
OK you need her email address, not sure she wants me type that into the chat log though.
9:03 pm
Bugsaw
ok I have that. I will put it in.
9:06 pm
Bugsaw
It is entered so now I see a little camera and a phone. I I touch the camera will it go through the email or do I have to add the phone number and hit the phone.
9:06 pm
stidmama
just hit the camera, should go right through
9:07 pm
stidmama
yeah! It works.
9:54 pm
stidmama
