12:45 am

rururocks

lol

12:45 am

joshuavorbis

i mean that in the nicest way, for the record

12:45 am

rururocks

that's why I want to move there then

12:47 am

dcseain

re get in a line is not a word? Please re7 over here.

12:48 am

rururocks

hey DC

12:49 am

evening, ruru

12:53 am

saanichcat

heelo ru, dc

12:53 am

dcseain

hi, saani

1:00 am

rururocks

Hi saan

1:01 am

rururocks

Gosh i have been dreaming of long beach

1:02 am

saanichcat

got your passport yet?

1:02 am

rururocks

Probably in a month or so

1:03 am

saanichcat

that's good - so what is happening this weekend?

1:03 am

rururocks

I am going to walla walla

1:04 am

saanichcat

work or holiday?

1:04 am

rururocks

Work

1:06 am

saanichcat

red boxes right on time 11:05

1:08 am

rururocks

Hate it that dr g won't fix it...it is really annoying

1:10 am

saanichcat

they seem to have eaten my last entry, again! I am hoping the work will be the good kind, and great people and not too much travel hassle for you

1:10 am

dcseain

eh, once a day the server reboots for health, a small price.

1:11 am

saanichcat

red is it's life blood

1:11 am

rururocks

Thx saan

1:11 am

dcseain

Enjoy your visit there, ruru, best you can.

1:12 am

rururocks

I am intersted in seeing vineyards

1:12 am

saanichcat

dc, remember when it used to midnight for the reboot, time stretch

1:12 am

saanichcat

time to stretch I mean

1:13 am

rururocks

It reboots more than once dc

1:13 am

rururocks

Lately multiple times

1:14 am

saanichcat

maybe it's in bare feet instead of boots

1:14 am

rururocks

I think it needs a boot in the ass

1:14 am

saanichcat

!!!

1:16 am

saanichcat

I agree very frustrating. I write down all the words I find (always forget them) and enter like crazy in between the long reboots

1:17 am

saanichcat

particularly annoying on the long grids with multiple endings

1:17 am

rururocks

Yes

1:18 am

rururocks

That is why i like finishing before 1105

1:19 am

saanichcat

some of us don't have your word power!

1:19 am

saanichcat

have you finished?

1:20 am

rururocks

I wish that were true...word power

1:20 am

rururocks

Yeah a long time ago ..one g held me up

1:23 am

rururocks

Heading to bed...good luck saanich

1:23 am

saanichcat

night ru

1:24 am

flosey

5 to go and they'll have to wait until tomorrow, goodnight all (all I see is red boxes)

1:26 am

Lizlin

Hi and hugs, pugs :)

2:48 am

sprite

hey pug *hugs* How are you today, my dear friend?

2:48 am

Lizlin

Hope you're feeling better today, pugs.

2:48 am

sprite

I don't follow the news, Liz, tbh.

2:49 am

puglet

so glad to see my friends back ---have missed you guys and where is our Rose to complete our family-lol

2:49 am

puglet

Iam feeling much more positive--just had a pity-party yesterday and thank you all

2:49 am

Lizlin

Malaysian plane shot down - Amsterdam -Kuala Lumpur. Many Dutch killed.

2:49 am

sprite

will email back to you after babble, pug :) Please don't worry about feeling down, sweetie. Perfectly normal in your situation. Would be strange if it was otherwise.

2:50 am

puglet

I was worried too Liz, with the news

2:50 am

sprite

ah, I heard something about that yesterday, yes. Incredibly sad. So many people :(

2:50 am

Lizlin

We keep thinking how lucky we are.

2:50 am

sprite

am very happy you and your husband are safely back home, Liz

2:51 am

puglet

okay Sprite

2:51 am

sprite

it hardly ever goes wrong with airplanes, but when it does, it is a huge disaster.

2:51 am

Lizlin

Singapore Air continued to use that route until today, despite advice to change routes.

2:52 am

sprite

that is criminal!

2:52 am

Lizlin

It was so amazing spending time with you sprite. You are such a lovely person.

2:53 am

Lizlin

They weren't the only airline. Changing routes uses more fuel so is expensive.

2:53 am

sprite

I enjoyed every minute of our afternoon, Liz. You and your husband are beautiful people.

2:53 am

puglet

Sprite, the book couldnt had came at a better time--thank you so much

2:53 am

sprite

yeah and once disaster strikes, the blame game starts.

2:54 am

sprite

am so glad, pugs. It will give you a bit of support through this all. You are one courageous woman.

2:54 am

Lizlin

My thoughts too!

2:55 am

puglet

I saved myself about six hundred dollars by doing it myself

2:55 am

Lizlin

You'll get thru all the sh*t pugs and come out stronger.

2:55 am

puglet

thanks guys

2:56 am

sprite

well done, pugs. Not easy and you did it.

2:56 am

puglet

alot of paper work but its done and started

2:57 am

sprite

*hugs pugs*

2:57 am

puglet

hugs back and hugs to Liz too

2:58 am

sprite

oh dear... the new neighbours are starting on their house... drilling, sanding, all kinds of machine noise!

2:58 am

puglet

I bet you are worn out are you Sprite? But did you enjoy your friends

2:58 am

Lizlin

Hugs from me too

2:58 am

puglet

not again!

2:59 am

sprite

yeah pretty tired. I did have a good time with my friends.

2:59 am

Lizlin

That would drive me mad! Hope it stops soon. Hugs in sympathy.

3:00 am

sprite

yeah, again, lol. Seems the powers that be are dedicated to deadening my sensitivity to noise.

3:02 am

sprite

oh! I may have very good news! Once the noise stops, I will make a call and see if I can find out more. Got an email from my publisher that my book is next to be translated into english!

3:03 am

Lizlin

That would be amazing - hope that works out.

3:03 am

sprite

me too. Seems they have struck a deal with an american book seller/club.

3:04 am

Lizlin

I'd live to read your book, so that'd be so cool.

3:05 am

sprite

if it works out, I will let you all know!

3:06 am

Lizlin

Hubby just walked in here and sends hugs, sprite.

3:06 am

sprite

*hugs* right back to him :)

3:06 am

Lizlin

3:08 am

sprite

did we lose our pugs?

3:09 am

Lizlin

It has gone quiet!

3:10 am

sprite

sure did, all of a sudden, lol.

3:10 am

sprite

looks like a rather unkind grid to me, today. Or am I just out of training?

3:10 am

Lizlin

Me too. Ground to a halt here with 34 left. Sigh!

3:11 am

sprite

lol yes, and only one 7 so far

3:12 am

Lizlin

I only have 3.

3:12 am

sprite

good job!

3:12 am

Lizlin

And not that many 6's either!

3:12 am

sprite

ouch indeed... only 2 here

3:13 am

Lizlin

5 weeks out of babble is a long time.

3:13 am

sprite

least they could have done was welcome you with a lovely grid, lol

3:14 am

sprite

lots of warm winds, though

3:14 am

Lizlin

well at least it's not huge, so I'll probably finish it - if not today, tomorrow.

3:15 am

Lizlin

Have them! Is there more than one spelling?

3:15 am

sprite

I might finish today, but definitely not tomorrow, grin. Babble time hiccup is at 7 am for me.

3:15 am

sprite

yes, two spellings, both pluralized too.

3:15 am

Lizlin

Answers self - yes!

3:16 am

sprite

roflol, well done Liz!

3:16 am

Lizlin

32 now!

3:16 am

sprite

very good!

3:16 am

Lizlin

Missing a q!

3:17 am

sprite

I miss 2 still.

3:17 am

sprite

ok, now only one

3:17 am

Lizlin

Have 4 x q 5

3:18 am

sprite

there it is. You have to extend one of your 5s.

3:18 am

Lizlin

3:19 am

Lizlin

Done! Thanks.

3:19 am

sprite

wtg Liz! One more grey tile!

3:20 am

Lizlin

That middle horizontal line is my bugbear today.

3:20 am

sprite

yeah, some ugly stuff there. I have the As and the Vs , but still missing words from the others.

3:21 am

sprite

I hope our pugs is ok. Not like her to drop out of chog all of a sudden.

3:22 am

Lizlin

Now have the vs. used same principle as t

3:22 am

Lizlin

Now have the vs. used same principle as t
For the q!

3:22 am

Lizlin

Perhaps she fell asleep?

3:22 am

sprite

good job

3:23 am

sprite

aw that would be good. Sleep is good for her. As long as she doesn't oversleep for work.

3:23 am

Lizlin

Well, I hope she's ok.

3:25 am

sprite

me too

3:25 am

grannyrose

welcome home you two

3:25 am

Lizlin

Rose! Hugs :)

3:26 am

Lizlin

Good to be home - but cold!

3:26 am

sprite

rose! *hugs* my friend.

3:26 am

grannyrose

{{hugs}} to you both. liz thanx so much for all the sharing, hun. it was very special. sprite, your time away, a success??

3:27 am

sprite

a couple of humps on the road, rose, but all in all a success.

3:28 am

grannyrose

yay, sprite. just small humps, i hope.

3:28 am

Lizlin

Can't wait for you to experience England Rose - kept thinking of how much you'll enjoy it.

3:28 am

sprite

yes, nothing major. It was nice. And Terra had a terrific time, lol... so many rabbits there!

3:29 am

sprite

and you, rose, how have you been?

3:29 am

Lizlin

You should've seen my brothers dogs hunting rabbits on the common! Not that they caught any, though it seems that often they do!

3:30 am

grannyrose

*grin* to you both. can just imagine terra hurtling every which way!!

3:30 am

grannyrose

oh, dear,,,the dreaded 'how have you been?'

3:31 am

Lizlin

Lol! I avoided that one!

3:31 am

sprite

spill the beans, rose. How HAVE you been??? Hm???

3:31 am

grannyrose

restless legs went nuts last night. the only thing which stopped it, was endone. *sigh*. and my hips!!! so sore!!

3:31 am

sprite

aw sweetie :( Do you know what brought it on?

3:32 am

Lizlin

Oh Rose :(

3:33 am

grannyrose

i think it was the workout with the flippers, plus first week of 2 1/2 hour shifts. * sigh * i can't even work that long...waaahhhh!

3:34 am

sprite

yet, rose. Yet. You will. Sounds like you need to stabilize the flipper exercises before upping the work load.

3:34 am

Lizlin

Dare I say cut back the hours again! Your body is the most important.

3:35 am

grannyrose

i agree, sprite. a lot less on the flippers. liz, i worked in the pool for 15 minutes with flippers on monday. i have to cut that down, and gradually increase the time.

3:35 am

ivesy3

rose, my son gets restless legs when he was going thru withdrawals..not going to beleive this but he used immodium ad and it worked ..dont know if you have that brand name there..but its antidiarhea med..!

3:36 am

sprite

yep, baby steps, all the way, rose. It is the only way.

3:36 am

Lizlin

I do understand how desperate you are to get back to "normal"!

3:36 am

grannyrose

with the flippers there was a lot more hip movement, as i had to straight leg kick with them.

3:36 am

sprite

lol ivesy! How on earth did he find that out? We have imodium here, for sure.

3:37 am

Lizlin

In the UK TOO SO IM SURE YOU MUST BE ABLE TO GET IT HERE.

3:37 am

grannyrose

ives, have something similar. will check out the active ingredients. thanx for the heads up.

3:37 am

Lizlin

sorry about the caps.

3:37 am

ivesy3

there are sites that recovering addicts find sprite believe me lol.. all sorts of tips out there for them to get thru

3:38 am

ivesy3

i told him well you wont be able to poop but your legs arent restless.

3:38 am

sprite

ah of course. A good thing, in this case :)

3:38 am

ivesy3

yes.. a good thing...and no narcotic in it ..i dont think ..rose? what is your take on that..

3:38 am

sprite

a cup of fibers a day might help there

3:39 am

ivesy3

lol...true... i never had the restlesss leg prob.. he said it is terrible..

3:40 am

grannyrose

ives, it is,picture this, you are lying in bed, all nice and drowsy, about to go to sleep, then your legs start twitching and kicking and thrashing around. it's really weird.

3:41 am

sprite

loperamide is all there is in it.

3:41 am

grannyrose

hang on ives, just pulling up MIMS on-line

3:41 am

sprite

it is horrible, ivesy. You just cannot stop moving your legs. They seem to have a life of themselves. And pins and needles all over.

3:42 am

ivesy3

does sound horrible.. you get it too sprite?

3:42 am

Lizlin

Time for me to go! It's good to be back. Hugs to all.

3:42 am

sprite

yes, sometimes, ivesy.

3:42 am

sprite

*hugs* for you and your husband, Liz!

3:43 am

ivesy3

ugh.... well he brings it on himself..my sympathy for that has died...his choice

3:44 am

grannyrose

okay, ives, immodium has the same active ingredient as my gastro-stop. loperidine. it slows down peristalsis. not a narcotic.

3:44 am

sprite

you are totally right about that, I think, ivesy

3:45 am

ivesy3

ok thanks rose.u just never know today what has narcotics in it...an addicts dream

3:45 am

sprite

that is what I thought too, rose. Worth a try, lol.

3:45 am

ivesy3

he says it works...course knowing my so he prob. takes whole bottle lol

3:46 am

sprite

oh lol... well in that case, don't try it, rose, grinnnn. You'll never poop again!

3:46 am

ivesy3

lollol.@sprite

3:47 am

ivesy3

sure that isnt necessary but with jason he has no control.. hence the problem..

3:49 am

ivesy3

so i must say that is why i wasnt chatting for awhile.i tned to hide when he starts again.pull covers over my head so to speak

3:49 am

sprite

*hugs ivesy* So hard on you, his shit. Pardon my french.

3:50 am

ivesy3

yes it is..does so well and then back at it..you think going thru withdrawal. he would remember how he felt...but evil is stronger

3:51 am

sprite

what I have seen of withdrawal, I'd think so too... something to never ever wanna do again!

3:51 am

ivesy3

we are stronger sprite..we can fight the devil

3:51 am

sprite

you think that is what makes the difference?

3:53 am

ivesy3

we have taken pain pills with narcotic.. but we can resist...his tolerance is so high it doesnt effect him .when he had his surgery even morphine wasnt helping.. didnt even phase him

3:53 am

sprite

sounds bad :(

3:54 am

ivesy3

he likes the high.. unfortunately.. and i dont belive that will ever change..he was taking suboxone.. have you ever heard of that

3:54 am

sprite

let me see if we have that here

3:55 am

ivesy3

that is a drug that is presecribed to addicts to help them get off drugs.

3:56 am

sprite

yes, found it, we have it here as well, same name.

3:57 am

ivesy3

course an addict finds out if you take more than u are supposed to you can get a bit of a high..so they do..jason found out.. then you get kicked out of the program for abusing it.. and you go into severe withdrawals.

3:58 am

sprite

*sigh* So stupid.

3:58 am

ivesy3

he had to go to the meth clinic thru the veterans, for five days to get help for it..you can actually have heart attack

3:59 am

sprite

can I say "the idiot" without hurting your feelings?

4:00 am

ivesy3

oh yes lol.. feel free.. i call him that all the time..

4:00 am

sprite

lol. Well it is because he is. Am sorry he is such a worry for you, ivesy.

4:01 am

grannyrose

sprite, has anyone you know been affected by the plane crash? just watching the news is why i am asking.

4:01 am

ivesy3

sad part is sprite he had such potential.. even sadder , its become my way of life...people say cut hm out of your life... i cant do it..he is my son..

4:02 am

ivesy3

ok nuff gloom ... ! i need coffee...

4:02 am

sprite

rose, haven't followed the news myself. Haven't heard from anyone close. Was worried about our Liz but she is ok, thank God.

4:03 am

grannyrose

ives, it's fine, hun. we all have a need to share, and we are here to listen/help where we can.

4:03 am

sprite

ivesy, people have no right to tell you so... you are the only one who can truly appreciate your situation. And you have to be loyal to yourself. But I can understand it being a tough tough burden.

4:03 am

ivesy3

ty both.. you are gems..!

4:04 am

ivesy3

and tim hortons coffee is calling me..bbs.!

4:04 am

sprite

*hugs ivesy*

4:12 am

sprite

called my publisher. He is gonna email the american guys to prioritize my books :D

4:12 am

grannyrose

wow!! sprite, what good news, hun. so exciting!!

4:12 am

sprite

oh rose, didn't have the chance to tell you yet: they are gonna translate my books for the american market!

4:13 am

grannyrose

*wriggles with excitement* whoot!!

4:14 am

sprite

and my worry was about the translation, but I get to see it before it goes public and I can make changes and everything. So it will be ok.

4:16 am

grannyrose

yes, sometimes meaning is lost in the translation. when do you get to see the proofs?

4:19 am

grannyrose

dinner nearly ready. i had better go and see if help is needed, xoxox

4:19 am

sprite

so he is gonna ask them to take my book as soon as possible. Don't know when the proofs will be ready. Enjoy dinner, darling

4:19 am

grannyrose

7:40 am

Riverdance

sorry

7:40 am

Riverdance

as I head off to the PB I am hopeful there is bacon there today

7:41 am

Anniebrook

bacon, tomato, mayo, toast, iced coffee in the PB today

7:41 am

Riverdance

yay and hello

7:41 am

Anniebrook

Hi River

7:41 am

Riverdance

Annie have you heard from Mom lately - I miss her

7:42 am

Anniebrook

No, I havent and I miss her too. I will drop her a line later.

7:42 am

crosshair

mmmm... bacon...

7:42 am

Riverdance

I will try and private message her on FB.

7:42 am

Anniebrook

crossy sniffed out the bacon

7:43 am

crosshair

7:43 am

Riverdance

come on in crossy - there is plenty

7:45 am

crosshair

tbh, stuff has been so expensive here of late (between $5 and $6 a pound!) that I have not had any in the house for gasp! almost 2 months now.

7:45 am

Riverdance

wow - that is crazy.

7:46 am

crosshair

I refuse to pay $5 + tax for a pound of bacon

7:46 am

MimiCat

.....considering sending a CARE package to crossy...

7:46 am

crosshair

((mimi))

7:47 am

MimiCat

((crossy))

7:47 am

Riverdance

you have to pay tax on food?

7:48 am

crosshair

of course

7:48 am

Riverdance

grocery store food?

7:48 am

crosshair

our universal health care is free but we pay, trust me.

7:48 am

MimiCat

Just saw the funniest thing...one of my cats was trying to go from coffee table to couch but the table was just a bit too far away and he got stuck with front paws on couch and back ones on table...so I pushed the table closer to rescue him.

7:48 am

Anniebrook

we don't pay taxes on food in the US

7:48 am

crosshair

yes, river, we pay tax on fodd

7:49 am

Riverdance

we only pay tax on restaurant food

7:49 am

crosshair

must be nice:)

7:49 am

mael

we pay our taxes on food in other ways, riverdance. Like ag subsidies

7:49 am

josephjames

actually i think some localities in the US do charge even on groceries. city taxes or something.

7:49 am

MimiCat

Everything is expensive, though. I was going to order a box of gingersnaps...no fancy brand...and it was $6.00!!! No gingersnaps for me.

7:50 am

Riverdance

I am sure they include taxes somewhere. It is just not added on in front of us so we are oblivious.

7:51 am

Riverdance

I am heading to Canada next week

7:51 am

MollyL

Canadians pay a lot of taxes. It's how the government pays for the "free" health care.

7:51 am

MimiCat

Probably like those "sales" where they mark the merchandise up just before they put it on sale for 30% off.

7:52 am

crosshair

it is. Nothing is free, but I would rather pay tax on a bag of chips that dies at the curb with no health care:)

7:52 am

crosshair

we are taxed left, right and centre

7:53 am

MollyL

You are right about that Mimi and so many people are oblivious to that mark up/sale thing.

7:53 am

crosshair

some places blend in the tax so it is not listed as a seperate item

7:54 am

MimiCat

When I had the heart attack I had no insurance so now I owe the hospital $21,000.

7:54 am

crosshair

would rather pay my taxes now than 12 later;)

7:54 am

crosshair

or 21k

7:54 am

crosshair

I am sure it all adds up the same.

7:55 am

MimiCat

They're not pushing to collect but if they ever do, I'll have to do a bankruptcy.

7:55 am

MimiCat

Molly--love the icon!

7:56 am

Riverdance

I think it time for breakfast.....later folks!

7:56 am

crosshair

not sure what is better, insurance driven health care in the U.S or govt operated health care in Canada;)

7:56 am

crosshair

but I am standing here, alive today because of it, so i will not complain too badly

7:56 am

MimiCat

6 of one, half a dozen of the other, crossy.

7:56 am

crosshair

tc river

7:57 am

josephjames

basically it depends if you're lucky or unlucky. if you're lucky enough not to have any major health problems ever, you'd prefer the US.

7:57 am

MimiCat

My Obamacare insurance now is quite affordable since I qualify for the government subsidy. For both medical and dental it's only $140 a month with $5 copays.

7:57 am

josephjames

or lucky enough to be super rich

7:57 am

crosshair

spin the wheel and take yer chances

7:58 am

crosshair

I am glad that you have some affordable coverage now, mimi:)

7:58 am

MimiCat

Before the heart attack I hadn't been to a doctor in 4 years.

7:59 am

crosshair

that is crazy

7:59 am

crosshair

If i would of had to wait, my first cancer would of killed me

7:59 am

crosshair

have*

8:00 am

MimiCat

Well...I wasn't sick! But now I need to get this body cared for...I think I may be in congestive heart failure so must do something.

8:00 am

josephjames

that doesn't sound good

8:00 am

MollyL

You are lucky Mimi. I know a lot of people who have not been so fortunate with "that" health care.

8:00 am

crosshair

now, none of that mimi. order up a nice fresh heart for yourself:)

8:01 am

MimiCat

It's the pendulum finally swinging back the other way, Molly. I had such bad luck for so long, I think I'm due some good.

8:01 am

crosshair

yaaa for mimi!

8:02 am

MimiCat

CHF actually sounds worse than it is in some ways. It depends on severity. One can live quite a long time with it if it is managed correctly. It's worse, of course, if one is elderly. I'm not quite there yet!

8:02 am

crosshair

looked at your house again, mimi. it seems so HUGE to me. Massive even. Guess I am too used to dealing with 900-1200 sq feet:)

8:03 am

josephjames

what is it exactly mimi?

8:03 am

Anniebrook

chronic heart failure?

8:03 am

josephjames

congestive

8:04 am

MimiCat

It's only a bit over 1600 sq. ft., crossy, so not that large. It's the view that really gets me. But I'm not optimistic that I can qualify. We shall see.

8:04 am

Anniebrook

yes, congestive.

8:04 am

crosshair

it does have a killer view

8:05 am

josephjames

are you saying her view is causing her heart problems

8:05 am

crosshair

no, we are speaking of something else, joseph lol

8:05 am

josephjames

i know it was a joke

8:06 am

crosshair

getting out of the oven she is in now can only help I am sure

8:07 am

crosshair

a beautiful, sunny 18c here today, mimi:)

8:07 am

josephjames

aha i looked it up

8:07 am

josephjames

Heart failure does not mean the heart has stopped working. Rather, it means that the heart's pumping power is weaker than normal. With heart failure, blood moves through the heart and body at a slower rate, and pressure in the heart increases. As a result, the heart cannot pump enough oxygen and nutrients to meet the body's needs. The chambers of the heart may respond by stretching to hold more blood to pump through the body or by becoming stiff and thickened. This helps to keep the blood moving, but the heart muscle walls may eventually weaken and become unable to pump as efficiently. As a result, the kidneys may respond by causing the body to retain fluid (water) and salt. If fluid builds up in the arms, legs, ankles, feet, lungs, or other organs, the body becomes congested, and congestive heart failure is the term used to describe the condition.

Good afternoon, Everyone. (Looks pretty quiet here right now)

5:07 pm

MollyL

Hi Nef.

5:08 pm

Nef

Hi Molly. How are you?

5:09 pm

MollyL

My lips are above the water level. And you?

5:10 pm

Nef

Well, the weatherman said yesterday that we were entering the longest dry period this year (rain isn't predicted again until Tuesday)

5:11 pm

Uneaixoise

yes, molly -- incredible cast!! :-)

5:11 pm

Nef

I take it that you are getting lots of rain now?

5:14 pm

Uneaixoise

we finally got some good rain and overnight FORTY magic lilies popped up in my flowerbeds!! LOL

5:15 pm

Nef

NICE, Une!

5:15 pm

Uneaixoise

yes!! :-)

5:15 pm

MollyL

No Nef, "my lips are above the water level" means...um...I'm keeping on top of things...

5:16 pm

MollyL

The Magical Garden Of Une

5:16 pm

Nef

You haven't had much rain down there? This has been the wettest year recorded yet.

5:17 pm

Nef

Ahh, Molly. Once again my age shows and I'm entirely out of it since I don't know the current slang.

5:17 pm

Uneaixoise

some were planted here over 50 yrs ago . . . some came from my mother's garden . . . some from my grandmother's . . . and some I actually ordered and planted because i love them so! LOL

5:18 pm

Nef

What kinds of lilies and what color, Une?

5:18 pm

jaxx7

It is astonishing how fast plants can grow when conditions are right.

5:19 pm

Nef

My day lilies are all just starting to bloom now (big, beautiful orange ones

5:19 pm

Uneaixoise

magic lilies . . . pink . . . also called popup lilies, pink ladies, squamagiera . . . they're so wonderful -- come back year after year . . . multiply . . . last a LONG time as a cut flower . . . and are fragrant :-)

5:20 pm

jaxx7

I love lilies in the garden but cut ones remind me of funerals, especially white ones

5:20 pm

Uneaixoise

when my mom died 3 years ago, one of her caregivers who's also a good friend of mine, went out and dug up lilies for HOURS and HOURS

5:21 pm

Uneaixoise

jaxx, i agree -- you're talking about Easter lilies -- yes, they remind me of funerals too

5:22 pm

Uneaixoise

that is, her caregiver AND I dug for hours and hours . . . whew . . . the bulbs are just huge and were very deep

5:22 pm

72 Temple Owl

hi, all

5:22 pm

jaxx7

Are those the ones like arrowheads with the stamen in the middle?

5:22 pm

Nef

When I was in high school I worked in a nursing home, and at Easter we'd have to go and take the Easter lilies out of all the rooms and put them in the hallway. The smell was over-powering

5:23 pm

Soodle

Stargazer lillies are my favourite.

5:23 pm

MollyL

Une, I have Asian lilies, they are really pretty. Not as pretty as my hibiscus though.

5:23 pm

jaxx7

You can tell I am not a gardener!

5:23 pm

Nef

(I'm not fond of Easter lilies either since then; they always remind me of that!)

5:23 pm

jaxx7

Hi, soodle.

5:24 pm

Nef

I googled those squamagiera lilies, Une, they are very pretty

5:24 pm

Soodle

Hi Flower People. :-)

5:25 pm

jaxx7

Then there's the pollen which escapes and stains everything. Lilies are best kept in the garden

5:25 pm

Nef

And I've had some Asian lilies, but the squirrels dug those up and ate thenm the 2nd year we had them (why just those and not the wild day lilies, I'm not sure)

5:25 pm

Nef

Hey, Soodle! How are you?

5:26 pm

jaxx7

Possibly the day lily bulbs are poisonous. They don't touch the day lilies in our garden either

5:26 pm

Nef

jaxx, I was always told that if you bring lilies in, you should remove the stamina with the yellow pollen on them.

5:27 pm

stidgmere

Hello all. Just starting here in the great Northwest. Glad to see you all.

5:27 pm

72 Temple Owl

i as well, nef.

5:27 pm

Nef

STAMIN! (autocorrect is a PIA)

5:27 pm

Soodle

<--- Mrs Scrooge. One of the best freebees one can get is the aroma as you walk past a flower shop. I have been known to 'saunter' up and down the same street many times, just inhaling as I pass the flower shop!

5:27 pm

jaxx7

Hi, Stidgmere. i have been looking for your catlett family.

5:27 pm

Nef

Hi stidg and TO!

5:28 pm

Nef

LOL, Soodle. :-)

5:28 pm

stidgmere

Thank you jaxx. My daughter knows more about the history than I do but I tag along and it is fun to see some of the views our ancestors enjoyed.

5:28 pm

jaxx7

The earliest mention in the Canterbury district was 1608

5:28 pm

MollyL

I haunt coffee shops for the smell.

5:29 pm

stidgmere

Can't do lillies. The odor makes my skin itch.

5:29 pm

jaxx7

They seemed to like marrying their kinfolk, cousins i guess.

5:29 pm

Nef

I've been known to buy 1 flower with the best fragrance and enjoy it that way

5:29 pm

Uneaixoise

<<<<<< ok here's what my lilies look like :-)

5:29 pm

Soodle

I have also been known to haunt bars and pubs, but that's another story.....

5:29 pm

stidgmere

Hmm that seems late for Canterbury but still a long time past. You have been researching, that is very kind.

5:30 pm

sukee

Hi again

5:30 pm

MollyL

My mother always said gladiolus were funeral flowers.

5:30 pm

Soodle

Une, they are Fabulous! I can almost smell them from here.

5:30 pm

Uneaixoise

mine too, Molly! LOL

5:30 pm

Uneaixoise

:-D

5:30 pm

stidgmere

I've noticed that about the "olden days" people married those who lived nearby. Usually cousins.

5:31 pm

Nef

Those are gorgeous, Une! WOW!

5:31 pm

jaxx7

I found a William catlett in the 1900 us census who had a mother and father born in England. his wife was Addie and he owned his own farm and could read and write.

5:31 pm

stidgmere

Those are lovely lillies, so profuse.

5:32 pm

MollyL

Beautiful Une, you really do have a magic garden. Don't let the pups pee on it. : D

5:32 pm

Uneaixoise

when they're profuse like this year, it's so much fun to share with friends!

5:32 pm

stidgmere

I don't know if that would be early enough for our Catletts. I'll make a ntoe of that. ty

5:33 pm

jaxx7

Molly, i have never heard that of gladioli. For the French it is chrysanthemums that are funeral flowers.

5:34 pm

Nef

Glads are the funeral flowers here; maybe it's a midwestern or U.S. thing?

5:34 pm

MollyL

For the Irish, a rose attached to a bottle of Jameson will do.

5:34 pm

jaxx7

He was 40 and his wife was 35 so probably they are not early settlers but may well be related.

5:34 pm

Uneaixoise

jaxx, i learned that the hard way! When i lived in france as a student, I gave a big pot of mums to my boyfriend's mom who was HORRIFIED! LOL

5:34 pm

Uneaixoise

Molly LOL

5:35 pm

Nef

But Molly, the bottles would all be empty!

5:35 pm

jaxx7

I once got a D- for an essay that began Dans the Jardin de Luxembourg are chrysnthemums. That is how I know about chrysants and the French. lol

5:36 pm

MollyL

That's the point, Nef

5:36 pm

Uneaixoise

jaxx LOL

5:36 pm

jaxx7

Then they can put the roses in the bottles as vases

5:37 pm

Uneaixoise

indeed! :-)

5:37 pm

MollyL

I prefer to put one between my teeth, but that is an entirely different story

5:37 pm

Soodle

I used to work for a homeless shelter in Dublin many years ago. One dark, wintry, rainy November night, we were following up on a leaflet drop, seeking non-perishable foodstuffs. I was wet, tired and disheartened. I called to a door, and the lady of the house invited me in. The first thing she said to me was 'Why are there white roses all around your head?' I thought she was bonkers. She went on to tell me that 'Elizabeth' was with me, surrounded by white roses. She told me loads of other stuff as well, but when I went home & told my mother what had happened, she nearly died. HER mother, who had died when my Mom was 15, was called Elizabeth. She knew that she was dying, and had requested white roses at her funeral. I never knew that.

5:37 pm

jaxx7

The irish certainly know how to throw a fantastic wake.

5:38 pm

Nef

The Aunt who raised me loved both mums and and Easter Lilies. I always gave her an Easter lily for Easter; so this year my daughter gave me one! She thought I did it because *I* liked them! I had to gently inform her about my dislike of them later (I was very gracious though when she gave it to me)

5:38 pm

Uneaixoise

Soodle, what a an amazing story . . .

5:38 pm

MollyL

Soodle has gone Crosshair on us. But that is a fabulous story.

5:39 pm

jaxx7

The Irish have second sight. have you tried to exercise yours, soodle?

5:40 pm

Soodle

What was really incredible was that I did not seek this person out. I happened upon her totally by accident. She also told me that I would marry a man who had been adopted as a baby (true) and that I would have 3 blonde-haired boys (untrue).

5:40 pm

MollyL

I'd pull up a chair next to the fire and listen to Soodle tell stories all night long.

5:40 pm

Nef

What a wonderful story, Soodle! It must have spooked both your Mom and you!

5:40 pm

Uneaixoise

me too!

5:41 pm

MollyL

Not all the Irish have second sight. Some just seem to have it after a few pints.

5:42 pm

jaxx7

Everyone has a guardian 'Angel'. Soodle's is her grandmother.

5:42 pm

Soodle

At the risk of boring you all, she also said that she saw a close relation of mine, with red hair, on a yacht. I totally pooh-poohed that, but, guess what? My younger, red-haired brother had just that evening got a job as a bar-boy in a local bar called....The Yacht!

5:42 pm

jaxx7

LOL molly

5:43 pm

MollyL

Oh, lucky Soodle. I think my Guardian Angel is a drunken ancestor of mine.

5:44 pm

72 Temple Owl

hi nef

5:44 pm

jaxx7

have you seen them? My mother had a lady in a Victorian style brown dress that stood at the end of her bed in times of crisis

5:44 pm

Uneaixoise

back in a bit . . .

5:44 pm

72 Temple Owl

i am distracted, phone, sorry

5:44 pm

Uneaixoise

wow, jaxx . . .

5:45 pm

Nef

Well, I'd love to stay and chat now that the chog woke up and is so lively; but a friend called and needs some help (she's single & sick; I spent the night in the E.R. with her); so I'll BBL

5:45 pm

Soodle

That was all of 30+ years ago. I still cannot pass a flower stand with white roses, without buying a bunch. I genuinely believe that my maternal grandmother is with me, despite never having met her.

5:45 pm

72 Temple Owl

nice story. sometimes there are people who do see tihings, i believe.

5:46 pm

MollyL

*Gets out the Ouija board*

5:46 pm

jaxx7

Molly would say definitely after a few jars

5:46 pm

72 Temple Owl

lol yes she would!

5:46 pm

Nef

I swear I have 2 Guardian Angels: 1 is my mom and the other is a very old lady with a long white braid (possibly my great grandmother, according to my Aunt). And, yes, I'm Irish too

5:47 pm

jaxx7

Oh, no. Don't do that. they can be so dangerous

5:47 pm

MollyL

*Passes around shots of poteen*

5:47 pm

72 Temple Owl

ty, we will all be having visions shortly.

5:48 pm

jaxx7

I went through a phase when a teenager and what went on frightened me so much that I smashed the glass and have never used one since

5:48 pm

jaxx7

Especially after shots of Poteen!

5:50 pm

MollyL

This is like a slumber party. I love it when the "evil Ouija board" stories kick up.

5:50 pm

Soodle

I need a double, please, Molly. It's a long time since I told the story of that random lady I met, and I have goose bumps as I type. SlÃ¡inte.

5:50 pm

jaxx7

Like soodle then, nef

5:50 pm

jaxx7

Not so funny, molly, when you are involved in it, believe me

5:51 pm

jaxx7

EErie, soodle, granted, but clearly your grandmother is at your side.

5:51 pm

MollyL

*Pours a double for Soodle and gets out the crystal ball and the tarot cards*

5:51 pm

crosshair

I thought your story of the white roses was very nice, soodles:)

5:51 pm

Soodle

I'm totally OK with benign, loving ancestors haunting me. In fact I welcome them.

5:52 pm

MollyL

Ancestors don't haunt you. They just walk with you in places you can't see.

5:52 pm

jaxx7

That's better. I have inherited my mother-in-law's crystal ball and her tarot cards. I always thought she was an old witch. lol

5:53 pm

Soodle

Absolutely true story, Cross! And (((Hi)))

5:53 pm

jaxx7

Hi, crossy

5:54 pm

Soodle

And, to clarify, Irish as I am, thanks be to God, I don't see, or hear or have any truck at all with them on 'the other side'!!!!

5:54 pm

crosshair

howdy jaxx:)

5:54 pm

MollyL

No, you are just "the other lot" : D

5:55 pm

crosshair

how is soodles this fine evening?

5:55 pm

Soodle

In fact, it's the living I fear. Not the dead!!!!

5:56 pm

jaxx7

We are vying with each other with ghostly goings on. Soodle will be having nightmares if we keep on so perhaps we should change the subject. I don't like this grid

5:56 pm

MollyL

*Hopes to not hear the wail of the banshee tonight*

5:56 pm

Soodle

Molly, you are a bad lady. And Cross, I was the finest until I recalled that spooky story. Now I'm a bit freaked. Sheesh!

5:57 pm

MollyL

Oh, poor little Soodle. Time for happy fun talk. *Puts on It's A Small World After All*

5:57 pm

jaxx7

I told you so. have you any Irish Whiskey left by your children? Pour yourself a double and relax

5:58 pm

westford

You are all so wonderful. I am supposed to be cooking dinner. Instead I am mesmerized by this conversation.

5:58 pm

Nef

My friend just called back; she said she's going to take a nap and I should come over in about an hour or 2 so I can walk her dogs this evening too. (It's too early to walk them right now she says.) I was heading out the door and the phone rangâ€¦ I'm glad I hadn't left yet! :-)

5:58 pm

jaxx7

Pleased to entertain you, westford.

5:59 pm

westford

How fitting that today is our daughter Erin's 45th birthday.

5:59 pm

crosshair

yes, soodles, pour yourself three fingers of Tullamore Dew and put on some good music

5:59 pm

Nef

Hi crossy and westford.

5:59 pm

jaxx7

Aww...., she's still a babby

5:59 pm

crosshair

howdy,nef

6:00 pm

Soodle

No whiskey. I don't drink the stuff anyway. BUT! My colleague who won about 4 grand on the lottery a couple of weeks ago arrived into the office today and plonked a bag on my desk, and in that bag was 4 bottles of plonk!!!! Way Hey

6:00 pm

crosshair

there ya go!

6:00 pm

westford

Google July 18th 1969. She was born a little after 2 in the morning..about the same time a girl named Mary Jo drowned.

6:00 pm

MollyL

I'm a bad lady. That's pretty funny, all things considered.

6:00 pm

jaxx7

There, indirectlt you won the lottery.

6:01 pm

jaxx7

indirectly even

6:01 pm

westford

hi nef and everyone. Sorry to just jump in.

6:01 pm

crosshair

howdy, westford

6:01 pm

jaxx7

The one in America that was involved with the late Edward kennedy?

6:02 pm

Soodle

Ah Westford, Happy birthday to your Erin. And may I compliment you on your wonderful choice of names 45 years ago! :-)

6:02 pm

Nef

west, if you waited for a pause you'd never get in with this crowd! Jumping in IS the correct way to join (at least that's my feelings)

6:02 pm

MollyL

I had to refer to the UK/American translator to figure out what plonk was.

6:02 pm

jaxx7

A poetical Ireland, no less

6:02 pm

westford

thanks Soodle. I will always be Irish at heart

6:03 pm

westford

and yes the one involved with Ted Kennedy

6:03 pm

jaxx7

Your daughter has been alive as long as I will have been married this December

6:03 pm

westford

Erin was aptly named. She is fey.

6:03 pm

Soodle

Chappaquiick. The Chaps acquitted. It sounds better if you say it out loud.

6:04 pm

rururocks

you mean bad driving westie?

6:04 pm

westford

that was such a sad event..Mary Jo , not Erin's birth

6:05 pm

MollyL

And as it is said...'tis no crime not to be Irish. Just a terrible, terrible shame.

6:05 pm

westford

andâ€¦I watched the moon landing from my hospital bed..made the doc promise I could

6:05 pm

jaxx7

Hi, Ru. Westford, it was a good job you jumped in when you did. between Ru and molly, you wouldn't have stood a chance - only joking

6:05 pm

Soodle

Could be worse, Molls. You could be one of the other lot.

6:06 pm

westford

I love laughter therefore I love Molly and Ruru

6:06 pm

My mom remembers the day when I was born very well

6:13 pm

Soodle

Nite Jaxx. Sleep well.

6:14 pm

<--- Jaw dropped. Limo driver!!!

6:16 pm

rururocks

yes. yes yes.. we want all the surly details soodle

6:17 pm

Soodle

I think I'll email DrGod and change my Babble name to Vicarious.

6:26 pm

Your life was not meant to be lived vicariously. If you do that you will miss all the gems put down right in front of you. *Old sage advice*

6:39 pm

Soodle

True, Molls. I'm hovering between real life and vicariousness at the moment. I was out for dinner earlier with a chap who works in my building. Really nice guy. But still very raw from a recent marital breakup. And as I listened to him, it dawned on me that I really don't NEED to hear about other people's misfortunes. I have plenty of my own. So I told him Good Night and I fecked off homed,
