lol my son came home late last night (or rather early this morning), drunk as a skunk, dropped down on the couch and is still sleeping right there. Fully dressed, feet still in shoes, draped over the armrest.
3:19 am
puglet
did you get rid of your bug problem? Wor
3:19 am
grannyrose
pugs, we all expect a detailed email please. not pushing you at all, but yesterday would have been great.
3:19 am
sprite
lol rose :)
3:19 am
puglet
lol Rose---I get it
3:19 am
grannyrose
oh lord, sprite. get the hangover cure ready...
3:20 am
worzel
D'you know I thought it was bug bites but it turned out to be an outbreak of psoriasis. Doctor gave me some real strong antihistamines and other stuff. It cleared a lot of it but it's coming back again and apparently it's induced by stress so I'm going back for a stronger zap by the doctor on Tuesday - fingers crossed!
3:20 am
sprite
not me, rose. If he is man enough to drink too much, he is on his own coping with the results.
3:20 am
Lizlin
Yay for Rose. Straight to the point!
3:21 am
sprite
psoriasis isn't a temporal disease, alas, worzel.
3:22 am
puglet
with work, house up keep and yard and campground care my hours are not enough
3:22 am
rolin
worzel...psoriasis is a blood disorder... its not an allergy
3:22 am
worzel
well according to my doctor it is just an outburst, but like you say I too believe it is a permanent thing - once you have it you have it forever. Still, let's hope, eh?
3:22 am
sprite
no, I bet, pug. That is way too much.
3:23 am
grannyrose
whoot!!! g'day rolin
3:23 am
puglet
Wor for someone who never visits the doctor, you sure seem to be going alot--lol
3:24 am

hi rolin x
3:24 am

Hi rolin, Hi Liz, Hi all
3:24 am
sprite
my husband has psoriasis. It can be made worse by stress. But antihistamines? Nope.
3:25 am
sprite
hello demi!
3:25 am
worzel
sorry didnt mean antihistamines meant antibiotics
3:25 am
rolin
hey demi...
3:26 am
puglet
Sprite, the last I talked to you, you were into deep cleaning of your room--did you get it finished
3:26 am
worzel
I was quite healthy down south! I went to the dr twice in 23 years between the ages of 16 and 39 and in the last 18 months I've been to the doctors 12 times and been hospitalised twice. Must be the northern air lol
3:26 am

3:28 am

hi dear rose
3:28 am

antibiotics don't make sense either. Ointments with hormones, maybe.
3:28 am
pink17
whats new here
3:28 am
puglet
that must make you feel good though, Sprite--yeah for you
3:28 am
sprite
*hugs pink* How have you been?
3:29 am
worzel
antibiotics do work because it can be exacerbated by environmental issues. It doesn't cure the actual cause - i.e the T blood cell disorder, but it does clear the secondary effect i.e the skin lesions
3:29 am
pink17

3:29 am

as long as you don't settle for someone who doesn't click with you, zooz... you are entitled to help that will benefit you.
4:03 am
zoozzoom
I won't settle for anyone who I don't click with.That is where the I will see comes in.I am rather fussy whom I open up to with personal feelings..lol
4:04 am
sprite
that is ok, zooz. Your personal feelings are vulnerable and precious. You should have someone you feel ok with.
4:04 am
puglet
I need to bow out--got lots to do--love and bye to you all and wish you all the best of all thats good in the world :) hugs by the thousands

4:12 am
grannyrose
zooz, i doing okay, mate. hope to have another go at all the paperwork tomorrow.
4:12 am

I must admit When the chat is slow I will often go off and do a sudoku or puzzle.
4:13 am
zoozzoom
In fact I have now nearly completed the whole of 2006 sudoku!
4:13 am
sprite
wow, well done, zooz!
4:13 am

4:14 am

rose, in your pace and only for as long as you can handle. Don't let anyone rush you.
4:14 am

grannyrose
i'm going to call the social sevice people on monday and ask for another week. i discovered another two books of questions in the pack. * sigh *
4:16 am
sprite
it isn't good for our rose. One part makes her focus on the way work is treating her, which makes her feel bad. And the other part makes her focus on her handicaps, which makes her feel bad too. It is a rotten job.
4:16 am
sprite
good thinking, rose!
4:16 am
zoozzoom
Can the union rep not help you with all the paperwork, Rose?
4:17 am
rubyfoo

when they make it in France, it's yucky. Mine is in the style of Madrid bbut is basically original with me. The recipe looks complicated, but it really isn't so bad IF you have a blender or food processor
4:20 am

4:21 am

oh I bet, zooz! Tough one to explain to a customer.
4:21 am
zoozzoom
Ruby is indeed!
4:21 am
rubyfoo
ty, sprite, unfortunately, only now and then
4:22 am
zoozzoom
Agreed, Sprite.But I always say the waitress/waiter also should know what is in the food we cooked .And how it is made.
4:22 am

zoozzoom
Did you shred your paperwork, Ruby or just throw it in the bin?
4:26 am
rubyfoo
just threw it out
4:27 am
rubyfoo
I didn't throw away much incriminating stuff
4:28 am
zoozzoom
I had a ton of very old paperwork to throw and decided I would shred it all.I was there for over an hour shredding it all.Should of just taken it into the garden and set fire to it.Would of been much quicker and less boring..lol
4:29 am
zoozzoom
Although that was over a year ago now..lol
4:29 am

Thankfully I have kept on top of it since.

7:24 am

7:24 am
Lizlin
OK - so do 8 - a place for ships + not the sea
7:25 am
MLFAN17
is it boon****?
7:26 am
Lizlin
I think so! + I originally come from Eng****
7:27 am
MLFAN17
ah ty lizin i couldnt figure out the last part of that
7:28 am
MollyL
It's a British word for the area around a port. That is my "learn something new today"
7:28 am
Lizlin
I didn't realise the word was Brit specific.
7:28 am
MLFAN17
i didnt either
7:29 am

Who knows, that is what the dictionary says
7:29 am
MLFAN17

7:36 am
MLFAN17
lizin what do you mean by not a prisoner?
7:36 am
Lizlin
If someone is not in prison, then they are ****
7:36 am
MLFAN17

7:36 am
MLFAN17
ty lizin i figured it out:)
7:36 am

Got a very busy day tomorrow, so trying to get as much done tonight as possible.
7:39 am
MLFAN17
lizin sounds like fun
7:40 am

No it's not a particularly fun day unfortunately - cleaning, a memorial service and then a meeting.
7:40 am
MLFAN17
uggh terrible
7:41 am
Lizlin
Meeting's an AGM - suspect it'll be very boring!
7:42 am
Lizlin
Annual General Meeting - of my synagogue. Sort of a duty thing to go, showing support.
7:43 am
MollyL
<---Had no clue about AGM either
7:44 am
Lizlin
I'm surprised - used in Aus and Britain - for official bodies. Election of officers etc.
7:44 am
MollyL
Here is my take on duty things that you go to, to show your support. They should not be long and boring.
7:44 am
Lizlin
True but it's a small community and so I go and put up with it!
7:44 am
MLFAN17
i agree molly they should be fun and informative
7:45 am
Lizlin
Sorry don't have it.
7:45 am
Sugrraleona
plural of that thing above your tongue MLF
7:45 am
MLFAN17
small should be relaxing
7:45 am
Lizlin
Sometimes people just like to hear the sound of their voices!
7:45 am
Lizlin
Thanks, surra.
7:46 am
MollyL
You are so right about that, Liz
7:46 am
Lizlin
Small sometimes means contentious - especially if there are egos involved!
7:46 am
Lizlin
But I'll come home to babble and that will relax!
7:46 am
MollyL
Ugh, I suggest several drinks before attending
7:47 am
MLFAN17
lizin isnt that what meetings are really for? so people can run their mouths lol
7:47 am
Lizlin
Good idea but have a 30 min drive!
7:47 am

So I guess the drinks will have to wait!

Forgot about the monkey!
7:53 am
MollyL
Here's a good one. Smaller baby showers for Mom's of second or third babies are now being referred to as "sprinkles". Sorry, but that is a little too goofy for me.
7:54 am

7:56 am

7:56 am
Lizlin
I just thought about the blood type - forgot about the monkey.
7:56 am
crosshair

Yep. This is the weather we usually get in August.

(9flosey)) how are you today?
9:22 am
Judi
Pffth. Canadians. Tell me how much you love it when you're shovelling your way out of 2 feet of snow.
9:22 am
flosey
the storm last night was exciting - we seldom have lightning/thunder
9:22 am
crosshair
bring it on. I cannot wait for the snow. I have my snowshoes all ready to go and the jeep is raring to climb through the snowy hills
9:23 am
crosshair
yes, that was a dandy storm. it rattled the windows
9:23 am
72 Temple Owl
how are you feeling, flosey?
9:23 am
flosey
great thanks crossy, today is our "cousins reunion" - looking forward to seeing cousins I haven't seen in many years
9:24 am

great thanks TO, and you?
9:24 am

lol,Judi. I DRIVE over 2 feet of snow now:))
9:24 am
Judi
Ha ha. Yes, how could I forget? Oh, master of the Jeep.
9:24 am

Actually, I do too with my Subaru.
9:24 am

I took a long look at the Outback Sport model when I was shopping
9:27 am
Judi
I feel bad for by BIL. He just crashed his Outback a few weeks ago - while in the Adirondacks. He passed out while driving and hit a telephone pole. Fortunately, low speed and he was not injured. The Subaru, however, is getting a makeover.
9:27 am
car.eeyore
OK...left column grayed. Time to mow the lawn. HAGD everyone! {{group}}
9:28 am
crosshair
What caused him to pass out?
9:29 am
Judi
Unknown medical issue. Tests all came back normal. I think he just had a low blood sugar moment. Was on his way to Dunkin Donuts.
9:29 am
crosshair
borderline diabetic?
9:29 am
Judi
I told him his story was really boring. I said you should have told people you hit a bear or a moose while in the Adirondacks. A telephone pole is just so pedestrian.
9:30 am
Judi
No, diabetic issues. He's healthy as a horse. Don't know if it was a medication issue or just some weird neurological thing. He still waiting for some test results from his doc in CT.
9:31 am
crosshair
yes, passed out, went into a ravine and spent three days clawing your way out of the bush, subsisting on raw fish and berries and sleeping under the stars...
9:31 am
Judi
... while fighting off wolves...
9:31 am
crosshair
of course, we cannot forget the wolves
9:31 am

Well, we can't all be fiction writers.

Alas, most Dunkin Donuts' are not located near wilderness ravines.
9:33 am

I am sure a Wal-mart will soon be...
9:33 am
crosshair
once they plow under that pesky nature that keeps getting in the way
9:33 am
Judi
Pffth. Wal-mart sucks.
9:34 am
crosshair
Most in this area avoid them like the plague
9:34 am
crosshair
of course we have had to live with them for less years than you have
9:35 am
Judi
I despise Wal-mart for the way they treat their employees and all the crap they import from China - which is about 99%.
9:36 am
crosshair
I think of them as a leech on a healthy body. the attach thenshelves and bleed dry small business and when there is nothing left, they detach themselves and leave the dried out husk
9:37 am
Judi
Such is life in our free market society. I try to shop local as much as possible. Trying more and more to find things made in the USA and by friendly allies.
9:38 am
crosshair
yes, support small mom and pop stores
9:39 am
flosey
so true Judi, we need to support our own economy first
9:40 am
flosey
love the mom & pop stores, almost a thing of the past

it is ok. The afternoon power nap will be that much sweeter:)

ah, I think our afternoon gathering is going to be quite a noisy affair - everyone with old memories to share, etc
9:45 am

I get more real, deep sleep between the yours of 1pm and 2:30 pm than i do by sleeping all night lol

Hello, everyone! Hey, I'm not good at sleeping ANY time and wish I could do so, especially since I am not back in afib again...the ticker just won't behave.

9:50 am

our 21st is next month
9:50 am
MimiCat
((crossy)) Yep....it's very annoying and disconcerting. Can't do much when this happens.
9:50 am
crosshair
going to send the boy to the movies and make a candle-lit dinner for tow with all the trimmings
9:51 am
flosey
Mimi, isn't there any way of handling that problem? meds?
9:51 am
MimiCat
Congrats, crossy! I would have had 35 next March.
9:52 am
flosey
ah Crossy, HAPPY 21ST NEXT MONTH - great idea
9:52 am
MimiCat
Yes, flosey...I went back on the medication...again. I keep it on hand. Maybe should stay on it but don't want to if I don't need to. Cardiologist says it's OK for me to take it just when it happens and then stop after a week or so, and that's what I'm doing.
9:52 am
crosshair
poor mimi:(
9:53 am
flosey
I agree with you there, no sense taking meds all the time if not totally necessary but awfully good to have them on hand
9:53 am
MimiCat
Thanks, crossy. It's very frustrating for someone like me...not my personality AT ALL to be "weak." But heart disease runs strong in my family and I expected it would happen at some point. It waited longer for me than it did for my bio father and grandmother, at least.
9:54 am
flosey
I better get myself ready, brother is picking me up - he said before noon so may be back for a few while I wait for him - we have a 2 + hour drive
9:54 am
MimiCat
There is the opinion that continuing to take the meds would avert the problem altogether and I may end up doing so at some point but not yet.
9:54 am
flosey
have a good day everyone
9:55 am
MimiCat
You, too, flosey!
9:55 am

I am going to make chicken cordon bleu with steamed veggies and stuffed baked taters with cheese and secret herbs and spices and a nice "death by chocolate" black forest cake for dessert with the perfect bottle or 3 of wine to accompany it all.
9:57 am
MimiCat
Sounds great. Always wanted a man who could cook. My ex used to make beef stew with a "broth" that was kind of thick and had no color whatsoever...yep...NO color...then loaded it down with ketchup.
9:59 am
MimiCat
Had a boyfriend decades ago who was a bit of a gourmet, though, and we had a good time cooking together. That was really nice. And we had dinner parties often with friends. Sigh...but I'm still in touch with him. He's a big guy in the internet world and lives in Palo Alto.
9:59 am
crosshair
I am the main cook for the household. My beloved has had eye issues for decades now
10:00 am
MimiCat
If you want a brunch recipe that is incredibly decadent but really easy to make, let me know. It's a family recipe and just as good the second day.
10:02 am
crosshair
will do. I made some bacon, egg, and cheese breakfast cupcakes the other day:)
10:04 am
MimiCat
All you do with this one is get shredded Swiss cheese and put it in a loaf pan, make 6 indentations for egg pockets, break the eggs into the pockets, salt and pepper lightly, cover with sour cream/brown sugar mixture and bake until eggs set, about 20 minutes or so, and sour cream topping is just browned. YUM. I like to serve it with a spinach, bacon and mandarin orange salad.
10:04 am
crosshair
Of course if you even have to ask about its calorie/fat/ nutrition value, you should not be eating them:) but oh were they tasty!
10:04 am
crosshair
reading mimi...
10:05 am
crosshair
sounds interesting
10:06 am
MimiCat
When my mother first told me about it, I thought it sounded TERRIBLE! But it's amazingly good. One must be willing to try new things, right?
10:06 am
crosshair
now i want to make a bacon and egg pie:)
10:06 am
crosshair
yes, indeed. always try new things
10:07 am
72 Temple Owl
so the eggs are baled but like a fried egg, yolk and white separate?
10:07 am
MimiCat
It's incredibly rich.
10:07 am
72 Temple Owl
ah, i take it you reached your weight goal and there is no longer feast then famine.
10:07 am
MimiCat
TO, just plop the entire egg in the pocket, sunny side up and cover with the sour cream mixture. It bakes kind of like a Scotch egg.
10:08 am
72 Temple Owl
i see.
10:08 am
MimiCat
Oh, no....still trying to lose and starting a program to do so. I haven't made this in YEARS for myself.
10:08 am

72 Temple Owl

10:10 am
crosshair
I lost 35 pounds in the end, but am not keeping up the maintinence at this time other than continuing to hike as much as i can
10:10 am
MimiCat
Don't know but sounds like a really bad idea...and very hard on the kidneys.
10:10 am
MimiCat
That's the best plan, crossy. I wish I could exercise mine away but, alas, the heart will not allow it.
10:10 am
72 Temple Owl
i strive for moderation, but it is not hard for me. i hate fatty things.
10:11 am
MimiCat
Well, then, you'd despise me, TO!!!
10:11 am
72 Temple Owl
aw, lol
10:11 am
72 Temple Owl
things, not people!
10:11 am

it is not fat that is my nemesis as much as it is starches. i love baked breads and buns. they are my Kriptonite.
10:12 am
72 Temple Owl
hate poultry skin, fat o n meat, oils
10:12 am
72 Temple Owl
sausage, aggs with cheese.
10:13 am
MimiCat
I do have one thing going for me....I don't eat a lot at any one time, so no portion control issue. Also, don't really snack and don't have much of a sweet tooth. But, like you, crossy...love my pasta and taters! Have cut way back, though.
10:14 am
72 Temple Owl
hate lunch meat, too. ugh.
10:15 am
MimiCat
People often make the mistake, however, of nearly eliminating fat entirely from their diet and that's a mistake...bad for your nervous system. I like "good" fats, like avocados. And I use real butter instead of margarine as we're finding out it's actually better for you.
10:16 am
72 Temple Owl
yes, i use butter. and olive oil
10:17 am
72 Temple Owl
things that are very oily creep me out. like americanized pizza with all of that fake low fat cheese so that is is covered with grease.
10:17 am
MimiCat
Please tell me I'm not the only one who starts a grid and even at the same sitting forgets the words I already entered and tries them AGAIN!!!
10:17 am
crosshair
yes, real butter and a quality olive oil;)
10:18 am
72 Temple Owl
you are not alone, mimi.
10:18 am

OK...I've hit the wall with this one. Going to get breakfast and then, hopefully, write all day today and tomorrow as I have no work this weekend. Hold a good creative thought for me, crossy! Bye, TO.
10:20 am
72 Temple Owl
breakfast sounds good, think i will get some as well. happy babbling.
10:20 am

10:20 am

will do, mimi!! 10,000 words today right?
10:21 am
MimiCat
....we'll see...you know I'm no good with "goals!"
10:23 am

I have lots of good "new" old music to put me in the mood...Stevie Wonder anthology, Bonnie Raitt, The Eagles, Fleetwood Mac...you get the picture.

Pull her up on Amazon and listen to some of the cuts they have...her voice has amazing tone...and I'm probably overly critical in that area, with my background. I'm a big Streisand fan, but, imho, the best female voice I have ever heard is Martina McBride...great tone, great strength, interprets very well.

Most of the so called female vocalists of today sing through their nose. And I'm being generous using the term "sing".
10:41 am

Breakfast cooking...I just hate that, Molly. I am classically trained in voice and have a 3-octave range and am very much a stickler on tone, enunciation and interpretation, no matter what the type of music.

Hi Molly, that was how I saw it
2:27 pm
MollyL
Since I don't go to the movies anymore, I always enjoy hearing your thoughts on what you have seen.
2:28 pm
tabbycat
We don't go to the movies anymore either. Both of us have hearing problems and it's either too loud or to soft.
2:28 pm
tabbycat
But we love movies and watch them on TV with the captions on.
2:29 pm
MollyL
I've never had a problem with too soft. Always too loud, which is one of the reasons I don't go to the movies anymore.
2:30 pm

Yes, when your hearing is about gone those loud sounds are actually painful.

I really went because Bobby wanted to see it but I like it too.
2:35 pm
zoozzoom
Good for you.I always took my own refreshments.As here in the UK you need to take out a mortgage to buy in the cinema!
2:37 pm
tabbycat
It's similar here zooz. I think they make most of their money off the concessions.
2:37 pm
MollyL
Same here Zoom. Movie snacks are priced in the absurd range. We always brought our own too when we went.
2:37 pm
Anniebrook
Here too. I paid almost $12. for popcorn and a small soda. They do not allow outside refreshments in the movies theatres here. That is how the concession stand can bankrupt you.
2:38 pm
MollyL
Oh Annie, you have to be sneaky with your outside snacks. : D
2:38 pm
tabbycat
I even had a special big purse for carrying our drinks and snacks.
2:38 pm
MollyL
See, Tabby and I are sneaky girls.
2:38 pm
zoozzoom
Must admit, that is part of the fun sneaking in your own foods!
2:38 pm

I tried once and was caught. They actually look inside your purse or any tote you are carrying.
2:39 pm
zoozzoom
Bloody cheek!
2:39 pm
Anniebrook
I agree with you, zooz.
2:39 pm
MollyL
Oh they don't do that here Annie. And when I can get a box of Raisinettes for a dollar at the grocery store and the movie theater wants 3.50 for them, it's a no-brainer
2:40 pm
MollyL
I could also fit a nice big bag of homemade popcorn in my "special movie purse"
2:40 pm
tabbycat
Maybe they do that here now too, with crazy people with guns nowadays.
2:40 pm
Anniebrook
They can do it here. I wonder where people hide the refreshments. I wont go there.

Movie purse LOL love it!

EVeryone plays this game in their own way - has their own goals - and i will never question how others choose to play the game - we are all here to do our own thing

Not questioning, just curious. Everyone can feel free to play the way they want. I was just making a comment...which never seems to go well.
3:09 pm

it is easy to understand, much in the same way it is easy to understand why people post when the achieve NBT or NBS in the chat. it adds depth and interest to what after all is a pretty basic game, as does the chat board itself.
