3:31 am

sprite

good morning all

3:31 am

sprite

hey rose *hugs* :) How was your day?

3:32 am

grannyrose

oops....i nearly missed her. {{hugs}} my dearest sprite. was just about to make a dash away. xxxx

3:32 am

sprite

lol if you have to go, you have to go, sweetie.

3:35 am

grannyrose

whew!! the dash became imperative. lovely day. church this morning, then a afternoon in front of the tv watching the motorcycle racing on phillip island.

3:35 am

sprite

ah, sounds like the perfect day for you

3:35 am

grannyrose

i was screaming at the tv, and don said, i don't think he can hear you, dear.

3:36 am

sprite

awwww LOL, and you said, not for lack of trying on my part.

3:37 am

grannyrose

i said i'm sure he can FEEL what i am saying. most of the crowd was probably saying the same thing....lol

3:37 am

sprite

lol

3:37 am

grannyrose

and your yesterday and night? how were they hun?

3:39 am

sprite

struggling, rose. Pain, pain, pain. Tired as hell from the pain. And trouble sleeping, of course. But otherwise ok :)

3:39 am

grannyrose

oh, before i forget. i am pretty certain i will be home tomorrow when you log in. we are going out all day with a group of people from church. we are visiting a zoo on the other side of town, about 2 1/2 hours drive. it is an open ranges zoo, attached to an historic mansion and rose garden.

3:40 am

sprite

sounds lovely! Looking forward to it?

3:40 am

grannyrose

*gentle cuddle* kisses away the bad thoughts. and sternly instructs sprite's body to BEHAVE....right now, missus, right now.

3:41 am

sprite

and you listen to our rose, you hear! Or else!

3:41 am

grannyrose

yes we are. don and i don't usually participate in the sort of excursion. but we thought, what the heck? why not?

3:42 am

sprite

exactly, why not? You already know the company will be good, and open ranges zooz are fun (the only ones I will ever visit) and doing something new is healthy.

3:44 am

grannyrose

oh, dear, don has just nuked a jar of crystallised honey...it is now bubbling. do i have anything to worry about?....roflol

3:45 am

sprite

lol, men... a few secs will do!

3:45 am

grannyrose

sprite, has your doctor ever given you endone or oxycodone for your pain?

3:47 am

sprite

yes sweetie. I have been on oxycodone for years and years. Neurosurgeon put me on gabapentine instead, but it isn't cutting it. Gonna try this Lyrica now.

3:48 am

grannyrose

aaahhh! good!! how much lyrica are you up to now?

3:48 am

sprite

150mg 2 times a day now. Must stay at this dose for at least a week now.

3:50 am

grannyrose

well, i'm pleased you have an alternative. have you told your doctor how my doctor is going to treat my pain? i.e. with a ketamine infusion, with an hospital admission of a week?

3:50 am

sprite

still happy as a clam that I don't have to take the oxycodone anymore, to be honest. I could feel deep inside it wasn't good for me. Even though it numbed most of my pain, it numbed everything else too.

3:51 am

sprite

no, not yet, will do that next time I see her. I'll ask her to check it out. Could you please send me the link to your doctor again?

3:52 am

grannyrose

oh, i didn't do that....did i? dumb, dumb, dodo, diddly dodo, dumb, dumb.

3:52 am

sprite

you are not dumb at all. And it is not like you don't have anything else on your mind, lol.

3:53 am

3:56 am

sprite

that would be so great, yes please rose

3:56 am

sprite

lol that rose, messing up the whole chog

3:57 am

grannyrose

it did?? not at my end...

3:58 am

sprite

yeah, lol. You will have to scroll to see my whole message now, because your link is too long and the chog makes something funny out of it.

3:58 am

grannyrose

oh, dear. let me see if i can fix it.

3:59 am

grannyrose

4:14 am

zoozzoom

Yes we do enjoy the bootsales.Even if there is nothing much to buy.Just rummaging through the items is sort of fun..lol

4:46 am

rubyfoo

I used to do a lot of Indian cooking, but it's too much work now. While you're here, thugh, I'll make a couscous royale

4:47 am

4:48 am

If you don't like couscous (veggies lamb, merguez, chicken, etc.) I can make other things.

4:49 am

i have had the most lovely day. was your night good?

5:54 am

crosshair

it was fine:) I am a very light sleeper these days. I find that the best sleep I get in a 24 hour period is the hour and a half power nap on the couch mid-day. (when I can get it)

5:55 am

crosshair

I am glad you had an enjoyable day:)

5:57 am

crosshair

lol, I just found the mexican power nap in the grid;)

8:12 am

MLFAN17

when i had it really short everyone loved it on me but me

8:13 am

pippingeek

and the worst part is i walked in with 6 photos of me with the exact haircut i wanted (which i've had multiple times in the past) and told her exactly how to cut it, but she did something else entirely

8:13 am

crosshair

My beloved once had hair down to the backs of her knees, but it took over her life; half a bottle of shampoo and conditioner each time, a full day to dry, and it was giving her neck pain. Now she keeps it shoulder length and is content;)

8:15 am

pippingeek

that's why i wanted to cut off 6 inches - but i didn't want to cut off 9!

8:15 am

pippingeek

and it's true, all my friends say i look great, but it's so, so not what i wanted or asked for

8:15 am

phaeton

pip...did you complain to the owner? I had that happen to me because the stylist didn't want to cut my hair the way i wanted it, so she butchered it.

8:15 am

MLFAN17

my hair had gotten so long that i was able to donate it.. 12 inches:)

8:16 am

pippingeek

yeah, and he and i are gonna consult in a couple days

8:16 am

MLFAN17

8:16 am

pippingeek

i'm not sure how to fix the fact that she cut off one sideburn and left the other tho

8:16 am

MLFAN17

pipping free hair extension?ol

Even better Doren.

9:49 am

MimiCat

Morning, everyone! What does it mean when you have plenty of food that you actually like in the house but don't want ANY of it?

9:49 am

Dorens

yup. i'm here. and hungry. heading into the kitchen for something a little less caloric than eggs benedict with crabmeat and caviar

9:49 am

MollyL

Wow, tough life

9:49 am

Scrabbler

Are you ick, Mimi?

9:49 am

pippingeek

hi mimicat!

9:49 am

Scrabbler

Or even sick?

9:49 am

hego

Mimi, my mom would have said that you're not hungry.

9:50 am

MimiCat

Nope...just indifferent somehow.

9:50 am

pippingeek

generally it means i am lazy. or sometimes depressed.

9:50 am

rururocks

You are a member of the carpenters?

9:50 am

MimiCat

Probably true, hego...I should be, though. Haven't eaten since 1:00 yesterday afternoon. Oh, well....who cares?!!

9:51 am

MimiCat

Maybe I'm just now responding to the shock of my daughter getting married on Wednesday.

9:51 am

pippingeek

i eat far more than that, but yes, i am treated for depression

9:52 am

hego

Really Mimi, I thought you were good with that.

9:52 am

pippingeek

even good stress can throw your system off

9:54 am

rururocks

Eggs benedict with crab meat sounds pretty good to me

9:54 am

hego

very rich

9:54 am

MimiCat

Yes, I'm basically good with it. I guess it's just my own personal feeling that often marriage is so difficult. Mine was a nightmare. But she's not me and I realize that.

9:55 am

MimiCat

Yum, ruru!! Sounds great to me, too....don't have that option, though...sigh.

9:55 am

MollyL

Crab meat crepes, if made well, are divine.

9:55 am

hego

marriage is easy. I've done it lots of times.

9:55 am

rururocks

I think there are holidays in northern europe for eggs benedict

9:55 am

penquis

i cracked open over 5 lbs. of rock crab claws on Friday....

9:55 am

pippingeek

there should be holidays for every kind of food

9:56 am

penquis

someone gave them to my brother...

9:56 am

The are called Holland days*

Bah-dum-ching

9:56 am

pippingeek

in fact just the other week i celebrated national pierogi day. that was good

9:56 am

MimiCat

LOL, hego...I'm always amazed people ever do it a second time, much less more!

9:56 am

hego

good one Ru.

9:56 am

pippingeek

oh ru.....

9:56 am

penquis

they were cooked....he made a dish with tofu noodles, corn, artichoke hearts, and zucchini with the crab...

9:57 am

rururocks

My set up person is missing her cues

9:57 am

hego

9:57 am

pippingeek

yum, pen!

9:57 am

penquis

and we are going to freeze the rest for another day....

9:57 am

MimiCat

Slow learner, hego?

9:57 am

penquis

they were scrumptious....nice and sweet...

9:57 am

hego

Yes, Ru, I did miss that one, sorry.

9:57 am

penquis

the lobsterman inadvertently catch them and can't sell them...

9:57 am

hego

No Mimi, I was widowed the 2nd time.

9:57 am

rururocks

You missed 2

9:58 am

hego

Unforseen circumstance.

9:58 am

MollyL

Slacker

9:58 am

hego

two? I am bad today.

9:59 am

MimiCat

Kidding, hego....if you're willing to take the chance and are happy with it, that's all that's important. I'm not that brave.

9:59 am

hego

Wait! they can't sell crab?

9:59 am

rururocks

Widowed twice?

9:59 am

penquis

they don't have a license for that...

9:59 am

hego

No divorced, then widowed.

10:00 am

rururocks

Whew. Was a bit worried for Bill :D

10:00 am

hego

stupid regulations again.

10:00 am

hego

I have been married to Bill for 6 years.

10:00 am

hego

Bill is safe. lol

10:01 am

hego

It's never too late Ru.

10:01 am

MimiCat

I have Addams Family Values on the TV atm...seem appropriate for my mood.

10:01 am

rururocks

I am not planning to get married again

10:02 am

pippingeek

mimi have you seen the recent color photos of the addams family sets that show how delightfully colorful and pastel they were?

10:02 am

hego

Some things, you don't plan, they just happen.

10:02 am

pippingeek

it's really quite charming and so counterintuitive from what we all would have imagined

10:02 am

MimiCat

When I was first divorced I only dated men who lived out of town because I knew they had to leave.

10:02 am

rururocks

I may put on some trainer wheels though

10:03 am

hego

sounds good.

10:03 am

MimiCat

Pip, I adore Raul Julia and Angelica Huston...this was the best of the recent Addams Family movies, I think. So funny. Too bad Raul is gone.

10:03 am

rururocks

Mimi fishes only catch and release

10:03 am

pippingeek

i am talking to a fellow right now through an online service (we haven't met yet) but if this doesn't pan out, i'm giving up until i move to chicago, it is too damn hard to date in new york

10:04 am

hego

eq 8...hmmm.....

10:04 am

pippingeek

oh hego, it is the worst unword ever

10:04 am

hego

geek wants a change of venue.

10:04 am

MimiCat

Ruru, to me people ruin a really good relationship by getting married. Why not just live separately and come together on a monogamous basis and keep all the fun with none of the headaches?

10:04 am

hego

Uh, oh

10:04 am

pippingeek

eq - vowel -- game, ***, match -- vowel

10:05 am

10:06 am

hego

bad ruru!

10:06 am

It would have to be monogamous for me in order to have trust and real intimacy.

10:06 am

10:07 am

penquis

one is a pl...the other ends with a pl letter....

10:07 am

hego

yes fan

10:07 am

pippingeek

i mean, you pick the rules you want in your relationship, but you both have to agree on what those rules are and stick to them

10:08 am

hego

or what pen said

10:08 am

rururocks

Was hoping dating and sex would be fulfilling :D

10:08 am

MimiCat

Of course, it's all academic for me since the chances of me entering into another relationship are slim to none.

10:08 am

MimiCat

Hey, if that's what you want at this point, ruru, go for it! It's probably better to keep things simple and not involved for awhile after a divorce.

10:09 am

hego

could be

10:09 am

MollyL

Hey you know what Mimi? You can lead a very happy life without a man in it.

10:09 am

hego

Hi Judi

10:10 am

Judi

Read back in chat. I thought Ruru was only having a relationship with his car right now.

10:10 am

rururocks

That's why you flag is at half mast scrabs?

10:10 am

MLFAN17

hi judi

10:10 am

hego

My problem is that I never lived alone in my life and I find it too lonely.

10:10 am

MimiCat

Even though my marriage was awful, I feel lucky to have had many truly wonderful men in my life.

10:11 am

MimiCat

I LOVE living alone, hego...really thrive on it.

10:11 am

hego

Can't do it.

10:11 am

rururocks

Mimi is sounding like jennifer lopez now

10:11 am

Scrabbler

I think about finding a boyfriend, but I don't want my wonderful life to get messed up.

10:12 am

hego

she's very liberated.

10:12 am

Scrabbler

Me too, Mimi. I require much solitude.

10:12 am

MimiCat

You don't even know the half of it, ruru....you'll have to read the book...if I ever get it finished!

10:12 am

hego

Scrabbler you are perfect as you are.

10:12 am

pippingeek

that's my one sadness about moving to chicago if i get into this school -

10:13 am

hego

I also require solitude, but that can happen in a relationship.

10:13 am

pippingeek

there's really only one neighborhood with one bedroom apartments, and it's 40 minutes away from school, and i love living alone

10:13 am

MollyL

People with independent natures often have a hard time sharing living space with someone.

10:13 am

Scrabbler

I have a wonderful life without a man.

10:13 am

MimiCat

You're right there, hego....I was never more alone than when I was married...probably not what you mean.

10:13 am

hego

We both have our own interests and separate things we like todo.

10:13 am

hego

You do Scrabs, I know that.

10:14 am

MLFAN17

ET 5/18?

10:14 am

10:15 am

MLFAN17

10:15 am

I certainly don't miss living with a man but I often miss the company of a man.

10:15 am

zoozzoom

lol

10:16 am

Scrabbler

To each his/her own. We each have our journey.

10:16 am

hego

We were 2 lonely people and a little lost when we met and now we're both good.

10:16 am

Scrabbler

Hego, are you just puttering around here?

10:16 am

hego

No one right way to live, true Scrabs.

10:16 am

rururocks

At least Bill is up to par

10:17 am

hego

No, I'm playing.

10:17 am

Scrabbler

Hego, do you realize we are using golf terms.

10:19 am

pippingeek

well, we have to take the rough with the smooth

10:19 am

hego

lol

10:20 am

MimiCat

Ooooh, ruru...didn't know you like it rough...

10:20 am

rururocks

She's fond of Bill's 9 iron if you know what i mean

10:20 am

MimiCat

Sorry for working blue this morning!

10:20 am

pippingeek

aha, landed right in my trap!

10:20 am

Scrabbler

I just passed halfway so it is time for me to go rake leaves outside.

10:20 am

hego

rururocks

Napa is a long way from Carmel

10:28 am

pippingeek

10:28 am

hego

Pip PA school is a great idea!

10:28 am

hego

Keep trying, you'll get accepted

10:28 am

pippingeek

i agree hego! now i just have to convince them that i will kick butt at it and that they should accept me to their school

10:29 am

MimiCat

I know....just thinking of doing a type of circular trip. There are so many places there I love and so long since I've been there.

10:29 am

welki

best of luck, pip - a great opportunity you've worked long and hard to realize

10:29 am

zoozzoom

May I ask what the PA stands for please?

10:29 am

hego

10:29 am

welki

10:30 am

rururocks

Adds more blonde to judi's hair

10:30 am

pippingeek

it's pretty much my worst subject, but i've been getting A's, so i'll think I'll do fine

10:30 am

Judi

10:30 am

Judi

*flips hair* What. Ev. Er.

10:30 am

hego

that'll do it.

10:31 am

MimiCat

Know how you can tell if someone has a blonde secretary? The white out on the computer screen.

10:31 am

pippingeek

zoozzoom, it's a US think that's somewhere between a supervisory nurse and a doctor, so you work mainly autonomously, but there is still an attending physician who technically signs off on your work at the end of the day or week or what have you

10:32 am

pippingeek

thing, not think

10:33 am

rururocks

Lol mimi

10:33 am

pippingeek

also, i totally missed the bit where someone mentioned fries. hungry again, dammit

10:34 am

MimiCat

I have many really good blonde jokes....

10:34 am

zoozzoom

Sounds like a good rewarding job to have then, Pippingeek!

10:34 am

zoozzoom

I am not brainy enough for that type of work..lol

10:34 am

hego

It is a good job and in high demand.

10:35 am

pippingeek

it's pretty great, zooz, plus the pay is excellent and the program only takes 2.5 years to complete once you get in. lots of bang for your buck

10:35 am

rururocks

Me neither zooz

10:35 am

hego

<--thinks zooz is plenty brainy.

10:35 am

hego

and Ru too.

10:35 am

pippingeek

i have no blonde jokes, but lots of ADD jokes and nerd jokes

10:35 am

Judi

Practice up on your dissection skills, pippin!

10:35 am

10:37 am

hego

Must take a break. Getting dizzy. HAGD All.

10:37 am

Wow. I didn't think a frog could eat a crayfish. I thought they only ate bugs.

10:38 am

pippingeek

my bio teacher was very impressed with my dissection skills

10:38 am

pippingeek

these were excessively large frogs, especially the females

10:38 am

i change the last letter which is a high point tile?

11:13 am

pippingeek

there is an as5/10, exactly the same but with a different last letter

11:13 am

cybernan

as 5/14: to evaluate something -- possibly gold?

11:13 am

zoozzoom

ES 5/14 writie a short story

11:13 am

pippingeek

it also has a plural

11:13 am

zoozzoom

just change the E to an A

11:15 am

mattygroves

I'm confused - I have the as5/14 now

11:15 am

cybernan

as 7, please?

11:15 am

pippingeek

which is not the same as what zoozzoom is saying

11:15 am

11:16 am

MLFAN17

Earn money is the same as WA4 not sure why that is so confusing.

11:22 am

mattygroves

Actually, I'd say the WA word is more the money earnt, rather than to earn it...?

11:22 am

pippingeek

i think we think of earn money as a verb and wa4 as a noun

11:23 am

sorry to hear, matty...hope it turns around for you!

12:09 pm

pippingeek

honey you can't let babble be a place that makes you feel bad, some days it just doesn't work for you, but it's a game we play to unwind and exercise the brain and chat with people who love you, so if you remember that part you always walk away feeling good

12:11 pm

pippingeek

good people and bad jokes are always welcome

12:11 pm

2:26 pm

rururocks

I think I'd do better than chicken soup :D

2:27 pm

hego

Go Ruru!!

2:27 pm

rururocks

But if Molly were an old jewish grandmother with a cold.. then it would be soup

2:29 pm

Dorens

i thought you once said you'd cook for her when she was sick cause the winter looked ominous. or something.

2:29 pm

Dorens

otherwise i know you'd do better than chicken soup!

2:30 pm

2:48 pm

rururocks

2:48 pm

hego

I get it

2:48 pm

Dorens

could have happened to anyone.

2:50 pm

hego

Not you, Red, you got all together.

2:50 pm

rururocks

not me

2:50 pm

hego

Now, me, it could have happened to me.

2:50 pm

rururocks

2:51 pm

I really doubt that KJE

2:54 pm

crosshair

Too much blood in my aclohol system as we speak:)

2:54 pm

kje

seriously. I didn't even start drinking until I was 29. Never saw the attraction in college of all that puking and hang over crap

2:54 pm

kje

but have been tipsy after 3 drinks... then stop bc I don't like that feeling

2:54 pm

hego

No kje, that's awful.

2:54 pm

rururocks

yeah.. and I never had sex until I was 50

2:55 pm

hego

Now if you believe that....

2:55 pm

Dorens

tipsy is fun. problem is when you don't know enough to stop, and want the feeling to continue, and don't realize that drinking more will actually be problematic.

2:55 pm

Dorens

haven't made that mistake in a very very long time

2:55 pm

rururocks

<---um hego.. check out the costume

2:55 pm

kje

I was always the DD in college... had to pull over once so a girl could puke... what is the appeal in that?

2:55 pm

Dorens

i can believe that kj didn't drink before 29, but ru?????come on now!

2:55 pm

hego

4:38 pm

Soodle

Nope Chrissie... Soodle's pretty wonderful! Well usually.... :-)

4:39 pm

ChrissieDee

I thought so ;)

4:40 pm

Soodle

Had a (probably 2 gazillion calorie) KFC earlier. Feeling full and guilty!

4:41 pm

MollyL

There is something about Kentucky Fried Chicken in Ireland that makes me laugh.

4:41 pm

MollyL

And quit food shaming yourself.

4:42 pm

Soodle

I didn't laugh, Molls. I slobbered. I drooled. I enjoyed every morsel.

4:43 pm

MollyL

Good. You are supposed to enjoy your food. Not feel guilty about eating it.

4:43 pm

Soodle

I even finger-licked!!!!

4:43 pm

crosshair

KFC has fallen in quality from what it used to be here years ago. the cost is also astronomical when feeding 4 people. for the cost of it now you could fill your fridge with a weeks groceries!

4:45 pm

MollyL

That's too bad. Here, KFC is still the best fried chicken there is. I agree about the cost though.

4:45 pm

crosshair

I think they try to use the grease too often and are not careful in letting it get up to the proper temperature:(

4:47 pm

Soodle

Fingers in ears, singing 'ya ya ya'. Sometimes , Crossy, it's nice to say 'To heck with the cost'. Sometimes a calorie laden, greasy, fast-food meal is what a person needs!

4:47 pm

MollyL

We had roast chicken for dinner tonight. There is something about a chicken roasting in the oven that is very homey.

4:48 pm

crosshair

I agree with you soddles. I am not dissin you. Last month we had a big bath of take-out fish and chips:))

4:48 pm

crosshair

soodles*

4:48 pm

MollyL

Our KFC is not quite that expensive. No way I could buy a weeks worth of groceries for what I pay at KFC.

4:48 pm

crosshair

batch*

4:49 pm

crosshair

for 4 people, to have a good feed of KFC with all the trimming here, it would be $50.00, easy

4:49 pm

MollyL

Oh my God

4:50 pm

jesdraggon

howdy all

4:50 pm

crosshair

Indeed.

4:50 pm

Howdy jes

4:51 pm

Chinese food for 4 is a better value in that there is usually more than enough for all to have a dinner of it the next day as well.

4:51 pm

ChrissieDee

Wonderful image of mr & mrs crossy sitting in a bath full of fish and chips, lol

4:51 pm

jesdraggon

mmm. fried chicken.

4:51 pm

crosshair

lol, chrissie

4:51 pm

Soodle

I much prefer a home cooked meal. I even more prefer a home cooked meal that somebody else has prepared, cooked, served & cleaned up after. When all of the above is not available.. There's KFC.

4:52 pm

jesdraggon

brb dog walk

4:53 pm

MollyL

Fried chicken is my go to, favorite thing to get in terms of fast food. Alas, we only do it about once a year since fried food is something I try to avoid.

4:54 pm

ChrissieDee

I admire your will power Molly. I really should improve my diet

4:55 pm

MollyL

Oh my will power is nothing to admire. I will cave at the slightest provocation.

4:55 pm

crosshair

want to see crossy cave? Just show be a flame broiled 1/4 pound bacon burger with cheese from harvey's

4:56 pm

4:57 pm

Soodle

Babblers know everything!!Can anybody explain why I have woken myself up the past 5 nights, by biting down, fairly heavily, on my tongue? It's (my tongue) pretty mangled...

4:58 pm

MollyL

Do you grind your teeth at night?

4:58 pm

crosshair

lol. Obviously you need more iron in your diet. Try eating more liver;))

4:58 pm

jesdraggon

back again

4:59 pm

Soodle

I do, Molly. Aggressively.

4:59 pm

crosshair

I grind my teeth:(( dentist is trying to get me to wear a mouth guard:(

5:00 pm

bichon

I'm on a paleo diet

5:00 pm

ChrissieDee

I do that sometimes. My lower jaw drops when i sleep (yes, very attractive) and something makes my jaw snap shut on tongue or cheek :(

5:01 pm

Soodle

Chrissie - thats EXACTLY what happens me! (GLORY BE!! I AM NOT ALONE!!!)

5:02 pm

ChrissieDee

lol

5:02 pm

Soodle

Is it an 'Old Lady' thing?

5:03 pm

ChrissieDee

I'm afraid it may be

5:03 pm

zoozzoom

I gring my teeth at night also.And I HATE it when i suddenly slam my teeth together.I have many times had blood coming out of my mouth at 3am..lol

5:03 pm

ChrissieDee

Everything else is getting slack!

5:03 pm

zoozzoom

Grind*

5:04 pm

zoozzoom

I mean what the hell is all that about?

5:04 pm

Soodle

Btw, Chrissie. I feel your pain at your son's departure. It's very tough.

5:05 pm

Soodle

((((Zoooz)))). Hiya Zooz. ðŸ˜

5:05 pm

MollyL

Yeah, you need a bite guard Soodle. You will be amazed at how much better you will sleep with it in.

5:05 pm

zoozzoom

(((Sodle))) :-)

5:05 pm

ChrissieDee

Thanks Soodle

5:05 pm

zoozzoom

Soodle* Sorry typing is worse when tired..lol

5:06 pm

Soodle

Any treasures at the boot sales today, Zooz?

5:06 pm

zoozzoom

No, Soodle, it was all junk again :-(

5:07 pm

MollyL

All the US people think Zoom went shopping for boots today.

5:07 pm

zoozzoom

My dentist say they will make me a teeth gaurd for me.But it will be Â£230 for one.

5:08 pm

Soodle

Bite guard = dentist = phobia, Molls. I'll take me chances without it.

5:08 pm

zoozzoom

Hahaha I did notice that, Molly. I did not say anything though..LOL Glad you knew :-)

5:08 pm

MollyL

They are expensive Zoom, but well worth the money. Otherwise you are going to end up grinding your teeth to little nubs.

5:09 pm

MollyL

Soodle, getting fitted for a bite guard does not involve drills or needles. You just have to bite down into a mold so they can fit it to your teeth.

5:11 pm

zoozzoom

Yes I think the next time i go.I will ask them to make me one. Better than grinding my teeth and biting the inside of my mouth to bits.

5:11 pm

ChrissieDee

Ah, that explains Judi's comment earlier about buying some lovely leather boots. I thought she was just sharing a bargain purchase

5:11 pm

Soodle

My sister, ( my money no object sister) got porcelain crowns. They look fantastic. I'm extraordinarily jealous.

5:12 pm

zoozzoom

LOL bless her.Although she did get a bargain :-)

5:12 pm

zoozzoom

Yes now you are talking serious money there, Soodle!

5:13 pm

zoozzoom

Do the clocks go back next week?

5:13 pm

MollyL

I want to be a money no object person.

5:15 pm

zoozzoom

Just checked they do go back next week.

5:16 pm

MollyL

Ours don't go back until November 2. I really struggle with the "dark part of the year".

5:17 pm

zoozzoom

I am not keen on it either. Dark by 4pm yuk!

5:18 pm

Soodle

I struggle with not being the 'money no object person' :-/

5:18 pm

MollyL

Yeah, that too Soodle.

5:19 pm

Soodle

I find ice cream helps. And wine. Both help.

5:20 pm

zoozzoom

Chocolate for me :-)

5:21 pm

Soodle

Ben n Jerry Cookie Dough icecream....hoo-hah!

5:28 pm

jaxx7

Zooz, you should see the blisters! I am going to the doc tomorrow as I think, despite Acriflex, it might be infected. Perhaps Fruit Shoot wasn't as good as water would have been.

5:28 pm

zoozzoom

Was you entertaining, Ruby?

5:28 pm

rubyfoo

I was entrtaining moi

5:29 pm

zoozzoom

lol, Ruby.As long as you had a good time :-)

5:29 pm

5:29 pm

rubyfoo

came down to give the dogs treats and then succumbed. I skipped dinner because husbad eats too early

5:30 pm

MollyL

Oh hush Ruby. I thought it was your son's job to give you grief about your eating habits. : D

5:30 pm

zoozzoom

Must admit, i can not eat too late at night otherwise I get nasty indigestion.

5:31 pm

rubyfoo

BTW, Molly, he's been sending me friendly e-mails like nothing happened.....I guess he has his own problems

Ahem ahem!!! I need everybody's attention. Today is an auspices (sp?). It is the anniversary of the arrival of one MollyL on this planet. I would like to raise my glass, and call on all here present to do likewise, and toast your friend, and mine....MOLLY!!! Hurrah! Happy Birthday, Molls!!!!

5:40 pm

jaxx7

Every country has the same products but with different names. Confusing

5:40 pm

Nice family day Molly

5:43 pm

zoozzoom

aww how sweet of him. Did you tip him :-)

5:43 pm

jaxx7

You know i had vertigo? It is still lingering. i am also not safe to be let out. I do tend to forget I am now elderly and act as if I am 21.

5:44 pm

MollyL

The kids paid for lunch. One of my sons manages a restaurant and he tips BIG.

5:44 pm

Soodle

I'd have taken that waiter, & brought him home with me! Clearly a man with exceptional taste !

5:45 pm

MollyL

Well, I could have done that. But he looked young enough that it might have involved felony charges.

5:46 pm

Soodle

Tsk..

5:46 pm

zoozzoom

LOL

5:47 pm

MollyL

Also, I find the whole "cougar" thing in really bad taste.

5:47 pm

jaxx7

On Thursday I decided to scale the bed and get something on the top of a wardrobe. On grabbing said item - a Hannah Montane back stage pass book - I decided to jump off the bed, landed with a bang and tipped forward into another wardrobe head first. I grabbed a stepladder to break my fall - yes I do know this stupid cow should have used that before climbing on the bed. In the process i tore the muscle in the right arm and then hit the wardrobe with the whole top of my head.

5:48 pm

zoozzoom

Really sorry but my eyes are drooping here.Am calling it a night..Molly, Hope the rest of the day and evening is a happy one for you. Toodle pips for now.

5:48 pm

Night night zooz

5:51 pm

ChrissieDee

Jaxx, jut had a hunt and found how you got the blisters too. You really are not safe to leave alone just now! ((Hugs))

5:53 pm

Soodle

Night Zooz, and Jaxx, seriously, your nocturnal activities resulting in personal injuries are hilarious!

5:55 pm

jaxx7

My head survived but my arm is still hurting. Then Friday after shopping for some fireworks I was toting the two cups of tea back to the car. I can't recall what happened but the lid came off the tea and scalded my left hand and wrist. the pain was awful so i dropped the milk and the other cup so scalding my left leg. There I was in the centre of a superstore carpark trying to get my husband to notice that his wife was standing 20 yards behind him, dripping tea and crying. he got me some water from the nearby garage and it wasn't until I had run one bottle over the hand and wrist that I noticed it was fruit shoot hydro backcurrant flavour so I was now sticky as well as blistered. the blisters have grown and I am going to the doc's tomorrow as I think it might be the vertigo thing as I feel so off centre. The blister is huge and very painful and the back of my left hand is a bright red.

5:56 pm

jaxx7

As you say I am not safe to be let out. Night soodle sleep well.

5:58 pm

Soodle

MollyL, may I wish you all you wish yourself for a Happy birthday. Just remember... The past is gone, you cannot change it. The future is beyond your control. Forget it. As for the present... Forget that too. I didn't buy you one!!!

5:58 pm

6:55 pm

My hubby (and many others) say Melbourne can have 4 seasons in one day! Thankfully, that's not where I live!

6:56 pm

72 Temple Owl

we had a great weekend, you should have seen tose 50th peop;edance! it was so cute

6:56 pm

Lizlin

Sounds like fun

6:56 pm

doseffing

... ten hours from now ask crossy if he had any lake effect snow overnight ...

6:57 pm

Lizlin

Fireworks!

6:57 pm

72 Temple Owl

reception friday night for all ex cadets, then football, campus tour and museum, and then dinner dance. got to see SO's yearookk photo he was a heartbreaker!

6:57 pm

Lizlin

Crossy said earlier that he was seeing the last of the autumn colours! I've seen photos of the snow he gets on jigidi.

6:58 pm

72 Temple Owl

yay liz!

6:58 pm

Lizlin

Thanks!

6:58 pm

72 Temple Owl

blue mt lakke in ny had snow

6:58 pm

That sounds like a really lovely weekend, TO.

6:58 pm

Lizlin

Is snow this early usual?

6:59 pm

Lizlin

Any clues before I head out?

6:59 pm

72 Temple Owl

gtg, simpsons is on. happy babbling. well it is a touch, and in the adirondacks I think a tad

6:59 pm

Lizlin

Enjoy your evening

6:59 pm

doseffing

... where crossy is yes ... it'll melt during the day ... but there is a special wind condition that he's subject to which will get him a lot of snow ...

7:00 pm

Lizlin

Couldn't live there! Snow in London was bad enough to bring the place to a grinding halt! That was enough for me. Will avoid going back to London in the winter if I can help it!!!

7:01 pm

Lizlin

Time for me to go - enjoy your evenings all :)

7:01 pm

doseffing

... if it's cold enough the wind will blow across the warm lake all seventy miles of it then when it hits the cold land, i.e. in Collingwood where crossy live, it will dump it as snow if the temperature is right

7:03 pm

doseffing

... heavens ... most Canadians wouldn't bother putting on boots for all the snow in London ... ... but I know just a bit can mess up the roads completely

7:04 pm

Lizlin

LOL! I couldn't get my car up my road on occasions - and it wasn't a very steep hill at all. On the good side, the London Underground was outside where I lived, so the trains didn't run either. Couldn't get into work!!! OK Really am going now!

7:04 pm

doseffing

... may you have another snow day real soon

7:08 pm

MollyL

Wow, you people up north really get off on snow, don't you?

7:09 pm

doseffing

... I probably won't see more than a few flurries until Janauary

7:10 pm

doseffing

until January ... ... but Crossy's town survives by selling ski hill time ... ... they need snow by December or people have small Christmas dinners

7:12 pm

periwinkle

I HATE snow!

7:12 pm

periwinkle

and ice too

7:12 pm

periwinkle

actually not crazy about winter

7:12 pm

Amen Peri. If I never saw snow again I would be a happy person.

7:13 pm

periwinkle

me too

7:13 pm

doseffing

... snow can be very lovely especially when it's falling on someone else's driveway ... ...

7:13 pm

periwinkle

wish I could live somewhere warm. I do not think I would miss the season changes and I would have family back here if I did miss it

7:13 pm
