2:23 am
grannyrose
{{hugs}} dearest sprite. how are you? how is tim?
2:23 am
sprite
*hugs rose* Hello dear friend.
2:25 am
sprite
I am ok, am getting my energy back little by little. Tim is healing up. Eye is less swollen, abrasions look less angry. I think the op is on for Monday, as far as I can judge things.
2:26 am
grannyrose
when will you know for certain?
2:27 am
sprite
Monday, lol. We have an appointment with the surgeon at 8 am, and that is when he will decide.
2:27 am
grannyrose
so tim will be fasting again?
2:28 am
sprite
yes. Good thing the surgeon had the appt moved from 4 pm to 8 am. Tim would have had a bear of a mood if he had to fast until 4 pm.
2:28 am
flosey
hi again, couldn't sleep so back for a few more words
2:29 am
grannyrose
g'day flosey
2:29 am
sprite
aw poor flosey :( I read you were so very tired. How awful you cannot sleep.
2:30 am
flosey
hope all goes smoothly from here on, Sprite. That kind of shock really rattles everyone's nerves, doesn't it
2:31 am
flosey
mind won't stop churning around, just thought of someone I should send an email to, so here I am again
2:31 am
sprite
it does. And it takes a little while to all get settled again, I guess.
2:31 am
sprite
I know that feeling. Not at all pleasant.
2:32 am
sprite
Rose, how are you today?
2:33 am
grannyrose
sorry hun, squirrel in the form of a don....lol. i'm okay. have filled out all the admission paperwork for new pain doctor.
2:33 am
grannyrose
a little tired still from last night. had a ball, laughed a lot, cried a bit. great fo4.
2:33 am
sprite
good job! May it be blessed this time, rose.
2:34 am
flosey
do hope you get one who really knows his 'stuff' rose
2:34 am
grannyrose
{{hugs}} liz girl
2:34 am
Lizlin
Agree with flosey :)
2:34 am
sprite
and how did the goodbye dinner go, rose? Did they give you a good farewell?
2:34 am
Lizlin
Hugs to you all
2:34 am
sprite
hi Liz :) *hugs* for you and your love.
2:35 am
grannyrose
thanx liz and flosey. yeah, i have worked with this guys patients post-op.
2:35 am
Lizlin
Good that things sound a bit better with Tim, too.
2:35 am
sprite
thanks Liz :)
2:35 am
Lizlin
Hope you sleep,soon, Flisey.
2:35 am
grannyrose
sprite, i wasn't allowed to pay for anything. treated like royalty...lol
2:36 am
Lizlin
Flosey - sorry, clumsy iPad fingers.
2:36 am
sprite
awww how sweet, rose :) And very deserved too.
2:36 am
grannyrose
another nurse was there who has just been given the same treatment as i have had. she was still very fragile, poor thing.
2:36 am
Lizlin
Sounds. Like you had a wonderful evening. So good you got a chance to have a proper goodbye.
2:37 am
sprite
which of your treatments did she live through, rose?
2:38 am
Lizlin
I assumed the work treatment!
2:39 am
sprite
hehehe I did assume the same thing, then realised it could have been a myriad of things. Since our rose has been through the wringer so much.
2:39 am
grannyrose
i was given a new indoor plant called an arthurium, and is very pretty. plus a rather nice gift card for one of our larger stores. looking forward to spending it.
2:39 am
flosey
what fun, rose
2:40 am
sprite
sweet gi4s, rose.
2:40 am
Lizlin
How nice of them.
2:40 am
grannyrose
liz assumed correctly, as you too, sprite. yeah...employer has sacked her.
2:40 am
Lizlin
It does leave you fragile.
2:41 am
grannyrose
although my closest friend at work wanted to actually buy something for me, the girls wanted to give the ot5 nurse a gift of money, and she didn't want there to be any obvious difference.
2:42 am
sprite
it does. It is so hurtful to discover that all you have put in is disregarded and your employer only looks at the money, and doesn't look out for you at all.
2:42 am
grannyrose
anja, from work, hand-made our cards which made them very special.
2:42 am
sprite
wise decision. And now you get to choose and pick :)
2:43 am
grannyrose
and yes, sprite, she is of dutch extract....lol...which is why i know you so well...
2:43 am
sprite
oh, how sweet! Good mementos, rose. of the things that really count... your relationship with your coworkers.
2:43 am
sprite
*giggles* Good soil, that dutch soil...
2:44 am
grannyrose
i was stunned. every message was signed with love, and that i will be missed. several times i was called 'darling'. moved me so much
2:44 am
Lizlin
I've got 85 words left and only just noticed I don't have NBT. How weird is that?
2:44 am
sprite
you touched many hearts there, rose.
2:45 am
sprite
lol Liz, happens to me often! Some tiles are just little devils.
2:45 am
Lizlin
That doesn't surprise me - you were obviously well liked and well regarded.
2:45 am
grannyrose
i didn't realise sprite. i just treated everyone with respect and politeness.
2:45 am
sprite
that in itself is a rare thing nowadays, rose. You are a beautiful person. *hugs*
2:45 am
Lizlin
And that's why, Rose.
2:49 am
grannyrose
oh gosh i have to tell you. while filling out the admission forms? i was asked to write in my height, weight and waist circumference. i wrote 153 cm, ***kgs, and LOL, what waist?
2:49 am
sprite
roflolololllll omg :D
2:49 am
sprite
they will laugh so hard there
2:50 am
Lizlin
Good to make them laugh.
2:51 am
grannyrose
are well...i guess i had better measure it before i go in....lol....wonder if i can stick two tape measures together...
2:51 am
Lizlin
Don't exaggerate!
2:51 am
sprite
not really pertinent to your issues, rose... let them measure it if they think it matters.
2:52 am
grannyrose
ooohhh, yum, don is home with dinner. combination egg noodles, lemon chicken and steamed rice. * dribble*
2:52 am
Lizlin
Bon appetit
2:53 am
sprite
enjoy, sweetie :)
2:53 am
grannyrose

2:53 am
Lizlin
Not long for dinner here too - roar chicken.
2:54 am
sprite
we might have another -ing grid soon, by the looks of it.
2:54 am
sprite
roar chicken? Roflol.
2:54 am
sprite
I love chicken. In almost any form.
2:54 am
Lizlin
I also laughed.
2:54 am
sprite
"I am chicken, hear me roar!"
2:55 am
Lizlin
Visions of it roaring as it went in the oven! Gruesome.
2:56 am
flosey
think I'm ready for sleep now, goodnight again
2:57 am
sprite
hehehe we have this little dutch song about an egg that talks and begs its 'owner' to not break it for an omelet... asking: "What if it were your little brother that you would slide into the pan?" It ends with the chicken being born, mocking the owner it wasn't his little brother at all... and the owner eating very young chicken with ri4 :)
2:57 am
sprite
night flosey, sleep well.
2:57 am
Lizlin
Sleep,well Flosey.
2:57 am
Lizlin
Lol sprite. So warped!
2:57 am
sprite
very much so :)
2:59 am
sprite
petri dish are two separate words, right? It won't take petri :(
3:00 am
Lizlin
Won't take looter either - a word we used in science lessons.
3:02 am
sprite
but that may be because the P doesn't sit next to the O? Or is your spell checker giving you hell again?
3:03 am
Lizlin
Didn't mean in this grid - just thinking enable doesn't like science lessons ;)
3:03 am
Lizlin
Time for me to go - have a lovely day. Hugs
3:04 am
sprite
too true, lol. And bye Liz, have a good evening. Hugs for you and your husband.
3:05 am

3:26 am
grannyrose

3:26 am
sprite

3:30 am
grannyrose
now to just get through the day without too much frazzlement.
3:32 am
sprite
yeah, that will be a challenge. I need something extremely easy to cook, that is for sure. Hm... soup and sandwiches are an option!
3:34 am
sprite
that is what I am gonna do. I am gonna make us a huge pan of soup. Pumpkin soup maybe. And buns and nice stuff to go on them. Done.
3:34 am
grannyrose
spahetti, jar of ready made napoli sauce, to which you an appropriate amount of cooked mince meat and extra onion.
3:35 am
grannyrose

4:31 am
rubyfoo
My kitchen is finished, missing only the little hooks, lost somewhere, for hanging one of the 4 cleaned drapes
4:31 am
rubyfoo
We got everything put back up this morning : tableaux, decorative plates, etc. and it is beautiful
4:32 am
zoozzoom
How about the orange wall-paper.Is it the orange you wanted ? or does it still look too dark?
4:32 am
zoozzoom
That sounds wonderful, Ruby.I am glad it all panned out well!
4:33 am
rubyfoo
next, the upstairs. But he won't start that 'til next week
4:33 am
zoozzoom
So you have a week of respite..lol
4:33 am
rubyfoo
It basically looks the same as I haven't changed the color scheme, but it is fresh and bright
4:33 am
zoozzoom
That is all good then!
4:34 am
rubyfoo
The colors were very complex and carefully planned to go with the granite and the cabinetry, so nobody would even see any difference
4:36 am
rubyfoo
As my dear mother used to ssay" So 25 yrs of art school didn't go to waste", teasing me while I did dopey arts and crafts projects
4:36 am

Hello, Croosy :-)
4:42 am
zoozzoom
Snowed in yet, Crossy?
4:43 am
crosshair
Nope:)) we are in the groove now. Six feet of snow on the ground and it is a winter wonderland, but the road crews are doing a great job and they are frantically grroming all of that snow on the mountain to get the skiiers going.
4:44 am
crosshair
grooming
4:44 am
zoozzoom
Nice when all the services work well.
4:45 am
crosshair
Yes, when this system first hit it caught many by surprise and I ended up doing several phamacy runs for people in the building whose cars were trapped in the parking lot
4:45 am
zoozzoom
I see in the USA I think it is Buffalo has been hit with a hell of a lot of snow a month early.
4:46 am
crosshair
Yup, Buffalo got the worst of it
4:46 am
zoozzoom
You are a very kind man, Crossy!
4:47 am
ivesy3
thats us zooz....snow snow and more snow..plow has nowhere to put the snow in our driveway..i havent looked outside yet , becuz if my car is covered again i will break into tears!
4:47 am
crosshair
I felt bad for them. You could see th main road had been somewhat cleared, but there they were with snow up to the door handles of their cars.
4:47 am
zoozzoom
((Ivesy)) Sorry you are having such horrid weather.
4:48 am
crosshair
poor ivesy:(
4:48 am
ivesy3
but i have food,heat, coffee and (smokes) .library has been closed since tues....
4:49 am
zoozzoom
At least you have some provisions so that is good.Have they said if there is a thaw on the way? Or is it there to saty for a while?
4:50 am
ivesy3
supposed to get up to 55 degrees sun/mon..then we will have floods..
4:51 am
zoozzoom
Yes i was about to say if there is a thaw on the way I hope the drainage system is all clear.
4:52 am
zoozzoom
A bit selfish I know..But I hope the cold snap does not pop over here.
4:53 am
ivesy3
not selfish. i would be hoping same thing lol
4:53 am
ivesy3
and now coffee....bbs
4:54 am
zoozzoom
Stay warm, Ivesy.
4:54 am
crosshair
it would actually be better if our forecasted thaw next week does not happen. Everything is getting organized bit by bit and we can just slide into our full winter mode till April
4:56 am
zoozzoom
Thats the thing, Crossy. I can imagine no sooner has the thaw happened then the next set of cold fronts will do there bit and dump snow all over again.
4:58 am
crosshair
interesting... Today our temp is to drop from minus 10c to minus 14c and the wind chill is set to reach minus 25c...brrr
4:59 am
crosshair
do not sweat the minute punctuation corrections, zooz, i will not pounce all over you on it.
4:59 am
zoozzoom
Wow that is cold..I am greatful our temps are about 14c
5:01 am
zoozzoom
The sea beeze this time of the year keeps our coastal temperatures up by a few degrees :-)
5:02 am
crosshair
lol...wait.. I had it set for Nunavut forecast....
5:03 am
crosshair
minus 4 c for us but lake-effect squalls are due and will give us 5-7 more inches of the white stuff
5:04 am
crosshair
Bring it on. The snowshoes are all ready to go:)
5:04 am
zoozzoom
Still cold to me, Crossy..lol
5:05 am
crosshair
I just need some cherry whiskey i can carry in a wine-skin when i head out:))
5:05 am
zoozzoom
About the puctuation, Crossy, I know but I am trying to type better puctuation.No where near perfect.But I like to try..lol
5:06 am
zoozzoom
LOL Crossy you are mad..lol
5:06 am
crosshair
We used to always carry cherry whiskey up north then snowmobiling because the stuff never, ever freezes. At need you can squeeze it out like toothpaste
5:06 am
zoozzoom
Punctuation* Geez got a ong way to go..lol
5:07 am
zoozzoom
Oh I give up.
5:07 am
crosshair
lol, I am the prez of the typo club:)
5:08 am
zoozzoom
LOL that I would like to see.. Whiskey coming out like toothpaste!
5:08 am
crosshair
at minus 48c it does just that:)
5:09 am
crosshair
and my beard freezes due to the exhalation of my breath. i once broke my beard by trying to get the ice out of it without letting it thaw a bit first:))
5:10 am
crosshair
I had a beardsicle:)
5:11 am
zoozzoom
So glad we do not get temps like that here.I would not survive.
5:12 am
crosshair
I say the same to my brother in las vegas. I would die in temps of 115f!
5:13 am
zoozzoom
Oh no the hotter the better for me.I love hot weather :-)
5:14 am
crosshair
anything over... let say 80f and I and a cooked Canada goose;)
5:15 am
zoozzoom
hehe I think I prefer temps about 30+
5:18 am
zoozzoom
Finally found the lone S..lol
5:19 am

I swear I tried the correct word several times.
5:23 am

5:29 am
grannyrose

5:29 am

5:30 am

{{hugs}} crossy. {{hugs}} zooz. {{hugs}} sukee
5:31 am
zoozzoom
How are you, Rose?
5:32 am
grannyrose
i am praying that you all keep safe, my friends. what a snowfall. pics of cars with 4 feet of snow on their rooves. houses in snow almost up to their eaves.
5:32 am
sukee
We escaped the worst of it, got about an inch at the most.
5:32 am
sukee
Or maybe 2 inches :)
5:32 am
grannyrose
zooz. i had my retirement party last night. it was wonderful to be able to say good-bye properly.
5:32 am
zoozzoom
Nice one, Sukee..Crossy got quite a bit where he is.
5:33 am
grannyrose
also very sad. those girls were my ot5 family.
5:33 am
zoozzoom
Awww that is sweet, Rose.Glad you had a wonderful time.Bet there was a few tears though ((Rose))
5:33 am
sukee
Yes, where I am we miss the worst of it, London which is close always gets hit harder.
5:34 am
grannyrose
yeah, zooz. lots of laughter and a few tears. one woman in particular i have worked with for nearly 20 years. it was very difficult.
5:35 am
zoozzoom
you would think it is summer all year round here, Sukee.Not often it gets below zero C here.
5:35 am
sukee
It is good you had that party Rose. I never even got to say goodbye to most people I worked with at my last job.
5:35 am
sukee
Okay zoom, I'll come visit next Winter :)
5:36 am
grannyrose
and that is not go4 for you sukee. we need to have closure on important parts of our lives.
5:36 am
zoozzoom
Yes I remember you talking about her before.I am sure you have each ot5's address to keep in touch though, Rose.
5:37 am
grannyrose
yes zooz. we move onto the next stage in our lives. friendship which withstands the trials of life...i think we qualify.
5:37 am
sukee
But, I do keep in touch with a couple of people from there.
5:38 am
grannyrose
zooz, she is very close to retirement also. just not forced to it, as i was.
5:40 am
zoozzoom
Does she live near by, Rose? that would be good when she retires to go to a cafe or something and have a good ole natter and catch up on good times.
5:41 am
grannyrose
unfortunately no, zooz. she lives on an island, which although accessible via a bridge, is about 3 hours drive away. but as i am no longer constrained...
5:42 am
crosshair
here, as in many places I imagine, it is amazing what a distance of a mere 200k makes in terms of snowfall. Sukee,as I recall is just 180k or so south of me and she got a dusting while were are just a foot or so behind Buffalo;)
5:43 am
zoozzoom
Shame..Still if she is tech savvy like you are. You both could always skype!
5:43 am
grannyrose
oh, gosh, crossy.
5:43 am
sukee
Well, look at Buffalo. Half of the city got smothered in snow, the rest was barely touched.
5:43 am
crosshair
Buffalo still takes home the fair-day goose however;)
5:44 am
grannyrose
i have her email addy, zooz, and her phone number. she has invited don and i down to stay.
5:44 am
zoozzoom
That's weather for you..lol
5:44 am
zoozzoom
that is nice then, Rose!
5:44 am
crosshair
Yup, if it was the same all the time we would still be complaining about it
5:45 am
grannyrose
meanwhile, we are baking...with a humidity of 80%. *gasp*
5:45 am
sukee
Well, I could go without snow :)
5:45 am
zoozzoom
Like me you mean, Crossy..lol I always moan about our weather and it is no where near as bad as many many places.
5:45 am
zoozzoom
Hello, Liz :-)
5:46 am
grannyrose
i am guessing you all have to live with snow too much. for me...it is still a novelty...even at my tender age of over 60....lol
5:46 am
crosshair
Friendships, I find, are best when they are of a type that you can pick up after a span of days, month or even years apart. When you get together again, you laugh easier, you understand one another, and it feels as if no time has passed at all:)
5:46 am
Lizlin
Brrrr! Snow :(
5:46 am
grannyrose
ummm, hey liz. i'm still here, gi4.
5:46 am
sukee
Sigh, I would love for snow to be a novelty.
5:47 am
Lizlin
Getting late there in Melbourne isn't it?
5:47 am
Lizlin
Always good to see you though.
5:47 am
zoozzoom
Rose is burning the midnight oil!
5:47 am
grannyrose
exactly crossy. which i am glad to say what exists between lizlin, puglet, sprite, rubyfoo and myself.
5:47 am
crosshair
I must move there. I should get a discount in every bar:)
5:47 am
zoozzoom
I think that is a saying..lol
5:48 am
grannyrose
midnight oil....great band....
5:48 am
Lizlin
Very true Rose - talking of which, I must email pugs before I go to bed.
5:48 am
zoozzoom
Oh haha it is a band also!
5:48 am
grannyrose
oh, dear...did i just age myself?
5:48 am
Lizlin
Yes, I like Midnight Oil too - good group. Only heard of them since moving here.
5:49 am
sukee
They had a big hit in the 80s
5:49 am
zoozzoom
Okay time to youtube them and see what they sound like.
5:49 am
grannyrose
i already did so, liz...email puglet i mean...poor darling..
5:49 am
sukee
Didn't the lead singer go into politics?
5:49 am
Lizlin
Yes, he did
5:50 am
Lizlin
Poor Pugs - but then again, things are starting to turn around for her too - hope this continues.
5:51 am
grannyrose
ahhh, of course...peter garrett...yes...he went into politics.
5:52 am
zoozzoom
Just listened to them.They sound okay :-)
5:53 am
sukee
I liked his voice.
5:53 am
Lizlin
Stats for the bottom corner s pls?
5:54 am
Lizlin
Thanks, zooz
5:54 am
zoozzoom
took me ages to get it.Yet it has been in the grid many times before.I swear i enetered the word several times before it took.
5:55 am
Lizlin
I've now only got 74 left - but finally, thanks to you, have nbt!
5:55 am
zoozzoom
Good going, Liz!
5:57 am
Lizlin
Took me a while to remember to spell the yellow colour oc5 the US way!
5:58 am
zoozzoom
And to reverse the last two letters :-)
5:59 am
crosshair
I always miss the odd spellings
5:59 am
Lizlin
True - but I had the UK spelling already - took me ages to think about the letter reversal.
5:59 am
crosshair
there, now have both versions:)
5:59 am
Lizlin
WTG crossy
6:00 am
grannyrose
okay...have been to the loo, scrubbed the teeth, taken the pills, and now have managed to ease the rings off the finger... *yawn*
6:01 am
Lizlin
So, bright and shiny now?
6:01 am
crosshair
you take your rings off each night?
6:01 am
grannyrose
oh...and 'jammies on...
6:01 am
Lizlin
Are you off on hols tomorrow or Sunday?
6:01 am
grannyrose
sunday, liz. tomorrow is full on, as you can imagine.
6:02 am
zoozzoom
Just seeing the word yawn you wrote, Rose, Made me yawn..lol
6:02 am
Lizlin
Can imagine indeed.
6:02 am
Lizlin
But take it as easy as you can.
6:02 am
grannyrose
oh, dear, zooz
6:02 am
zoozzoom
Oooh have a wonderful time on your holidays, Rose!
6:03 am
grannyrose
just 6 nights and 7 days, zooz. but i am hoping it will invigorate both of us.
6:03 am
crosshair
I have had my wedding band on for almost 22 years now. Would need to cut my finger off to remove it now as i am a tad huskier than i was when i took the vow:)
6:04 am
zoozzoom
A different scene is just as good as a rest.
6:05 am
zoozzoom
I have never worn any type of jewelry.
6:05 am
grannyrose
good for you, crossy. unfortunately, under my egagement ring, which is welded in between my wedding band and my eternity ring, i seem to develop a rather nasty itchy rash.
6:05 am
crosshair
poor rose:( My beloved also gets an under-the-ring rash
6:06 am
grannyrose
i think some bugs must congregate there, and multiply.
6:06 am
sukee
Me neither zoom, other than one period when I loved Swatch watches :)
6:06 am
Lizlin
That's nasty, Rose.
6:06 am
zoozzoom
Could it be sweat rash?
6:06 am
zoozzoom
Swatch watches wow do they still make those?
6:06 am
crosshair
I remember the Swatch craze:) I was into the Swiss Army watches at the time
6:06 am
sukee
Well, that was in the 80s
6:06 am
grannyrose
no, zooz. when i take it off, i can see some sort of gunge under the stone.
6:07 am
Lizlin
Have you had the ring cleaned - not just water, i mean.
6:07 am
zoozzoom
Then taking it off at bedtime sounds like the right choice to me.Maybe get the ring cleaned.
6:07 am
grannyrose
yes, liz. it has been ultrasonically cleaned.
6:07 am
zoozzoom
Snap, Liz!
6:08 am
Lizlin
Great minds - again!
6:08 am
grannyrose
zooz, i take it off each night, clean it, and put it back on in the am.
6:08 am
Lizlin
What about some sort of disinfectant - on a regular basis - for the ring, not your finger.
6:08 am
crosshair
I wonder if a jeweler can remove the stone from the mounting and clean underneath it for you, rose?
6:09 am
grannyrose
i am trying to build up the skin integrity by applying vitamin e cream every night. it seems to help.
6:09 am
zoozzoom
Could try a different ring just for a few days to see if it still does it?
6:11 am
grannyrose
nice idea, zooz. but my wedding band, engagement ring and eternity ring are the only ones i have.
6:11 am
Lizlin
If you wear them around your neck, would the finger irritation clear up? And would it recur when you put the ring back on?
6:12 am
zoozzoom
Yay I found the 9!..I found the 9!
6:12 am
grannyrose
liz, love...i did that...and tonight after 3 days, and wearing the rings for just today....the rash is back.
6:13 am
Lizlin
Yay, Zooz :)
6:13 am
grannyrose
whoot!!! yay zooz
6:13 am

strange!!! not what i said...lol

6:16 am
grannyrose
zooz...did i tell you? DH has saved up enough for us both to visit spain, france, italy, belgium, holland and the uk?
6:16 am
grannyrose
thanx zooz, mate.
6:16 am
Lizlin
Glad there's enough money for both of you ;)
6:17 am
grannyrose
*giggle* liz...yeah!!
6:17 am
Lizlin
You're going to have such an amazing time.
6:20 am
grannyrose
what would be even more amazing is iif you and the other half could be there at the same time as pugs and i.
6:21 am
Lizlin
That would be unbelievable but it's not going to happen - NZ in the early part of the year - then nothing planned until the exchange rate drastically improves for us!
6:22 am
grannyrose
ugh, liz. well, i'll be happy to meet and greet you both...
6:22 am
Lizlin
45 words left and the other half is suggesting bed! Who am I to refuse such an offer?
6:22 am
grannyrose
roflol...never say no, liz.
6:23 am
Lizlin
I can dream - and I'm sure we will meet.
6:23 am
Lizlin
You'll have to get Pugs over here - Sprite and Ruby too :)
6:24 am
grannyrose
we will liz. it will take some planning but the five of us will be in the same place at the same tims.
6:24 am
grannyrose
ugh...time...
6:24 am
Lizlin
Wow! Stuff of dreams - that would be awesome. Only 10.25 here - but it's that time! Hugs Rose.
6:25 am

Rose, I don't know if you are still here but a thin layer of clear nail varnish on the inside of the rings might help. It keeps the metal off your skin. Rubbing your finger with an antihistamine cream might help too.

I hope they have a good place to go, Nef. It will be easier on you. The summer was mixed--good trip to Norway with granddaughter (her abby due in Feb--and another suicide--ex-son in law, but my 12 yr old grandson found the body. So things are a great jumble and much not taken care of.
12:49 pm
Nef
Sorry to hear that, RB.
12:50 pm
mkg
any clues for that 9? or the 7?
12:50 pm
RoundBarn
Details on both our sides, Nef--I should phone. And will, before long.
12:51 pm

the 9 builds on the 7, to go backword. the 9 is the one who does backward.
12:51 pm
Nef
Yes, we do need to catch upsetter than here, RB
12:52 pm
mkg
what does the 9 do backwards? i dont get it.
12:52 pm
RoundBarn
I meant for the clue, GOES backward.
12:52 pm
Nef
sorry, on the phone there. That should have been catch up Better
12:53 pm
RoundBarn
Once it's backward, O I don't know what it does. Go back to nappies? Or a forgotten lisp? You name it.
12:53 pm
Nef
RB, when do you give yourself a break? And how late are you up?
12:53 pm
mkg
nappies???????huh?
12:53 pm
mkg
can you just clue this please to me. re and then what? thanks
12:54 pm
mkg
diapers not in grid.
12:54 pm
Nef
mkg, re 7 means to go backwards, (maybe like senile?); then the re 9 is the person who does it
12:55 pm
RoundBarn
nappies are what diapers are in England. If you re**** you might forget your toilet training--or even on purpose, if you're mad about something. Adults can re**** all the time. I'm making up stories in my head.
12:55 pm
Nef
it used to be that people would be hypnotized to re7 to a certain traumatic event
12:55 pm
mkg
go backwards as in run backwards? or turn the clock back? i guess i dont see third letter possiblility.
12:57 pm
Nef
eg 6/24 is eg****. Put an R in front of it for the 7/36
12:57 pm
RoundBarn
It's the opposite of progress.

12:57 pm

1:25 pm

I think many people object to the show because of the bad language, but it's nothing not heard before (maybe not in that quantity)
1:25 pm

After the sopranos, how can anyone be shocked?

That's true

2:20 pm
periwinkle
I will buy some more soon.
2:20 pm
lilliann
Sloppy joe Peri?
2:21 pm
lilliann
Can you not get the gin Peri?
2:21 pm
periwinkle
yes, it is usually a mixture made with beef or other meat and placed over hamburger rolls.
2:21 pm
periwinkle
I need to pay off some of my bills, lil. no money for gin at the moment
2:23 pm
MollyL
Oh great> Soodle is dry, now Peri is dry. I guess soon everyone here will be knitting and drinking tea.
2:23 pm
periwinkle
I do drink tea but no knitting here
2:24 pm
lilliann
So is it a beef pattie(meat burger)put on a roll? we say hamburgers but we have beefburgers/patties on a roll.Sorry to hear you can't have your gin, if it didn't cost so much to send or could get broken, i'd send you a big bottle
2:25 pm
periwinkle
no it is a mixture made with meat, onions, garlic tomato sauce, red/green pepper. cooked and then put over the buns
2:25 pm
periwinkle
I used Portobello mushrooms instead of meat
2:25 pm
lilliann
I'm having a small glass of white wine as i've had my tea quota(nearly pb, but who cares) for the day
2:25 pm
periwinkle

2:26 pm
periwinkle
104 left, bbl
2:27 pm
lilliann
i make those Peri either with beef mince or pork mince but i also add mushrooms and herbs
2:27 pm
lilliann
Now i can call them sloppy joes and confuse the bairn :)
2:31 pm
MollyL
No, they are not hamburgers. It is hamburger meat with tomato sauce, onions, green pepper and seasonings. Hence the "sloppy" part of what it's called.
2:35 pm
lilliann
I don't understand the sloppy bit.Do you shape it and cook it, if so, there's nowt sloppy about it, apart from the mixture when your mixing it together
2:37 pm
hego
No shaping. It comes out a lava like consistency.
2:38 pm
hego
You pour it over a bun.
2:38 pm
hego
The eating is the sloppy part.
2:38 pm
hego
Very good, though.
2:39 pm
lilliann
Ah, i see, thanks hego and hi
2:39 pm
MollyL
Since you mix the meat with sauce, it cannot be shaped into a bun.
2:41 pm
lilliann
I was getting confused with the tomato sauce,as in you make a sauce with tomatoes and other things, like a wet sauce(i know that sounds thick) but i was thinking tomato ketchup or puree which i add to my mixture sometimes and make like patties
2:42 pm
hego
kids love these.
2:42 pm
lilliann
I bet they do because it's messy and they won't be told off
2:43 pm
storyteller
The meat is fried crumbled , drain the grease and then you add the other stuff. Simmer for awhile. Put it on a bun ...yum.
2:43 pm
hego
people like to make them for parties because you can make the stuff way ahead.
2:43 pm
lilliann
basically, it is how we would make our spaghetti bolognaise sauce
2:44 pm
lilliann
Well, i've never had one but would love to try
2:45 pm
lilliann
Ty Story and hi
2:45 pm
storyteller
We mainly use ketchup w/ a dab of mustard here. I spice it up a little. :)
2:45 pm
storyteller
Hi. LOL
2:45 pm
hego
And you can make them any way you like, as story just said.
2:46 pm
Scrabbler
Back. Hi kids.
2:46 pm

I like mustard.My favourite is diijon,wholegrain or plain
2:46 pm

Hi Scrabs, nice to see you

Hi Scrabs, how goes the shoveling
2:47 pm
Scrabbler
I went for a nice walk earlier. I has been snowing for about 3 hrs.
2:47 pm
lilliann
Are you snowed in Scrabs?
2:47 pm
Scrabbler
I shoveled the front steps and I found my buried recycling container.
2:48 pm
Scrabbler
The garbage truck was supposed to come Wed but cannot get through yet.
2:48 pm
bichon
I don't understand the re 8 word, the clue about snakes
2:49 pm
bichon
When we had 3 feet of snow, the garbage was piling up at our house
2:49 pm
MollyL
No, sloppy joes are nothing like spaghetti sauce
2:49 pm
lilliann
I did re-clue it Bichon and said that someone who draws back in fear
2:50 pm
MollyL
re - the shape a snake curls up in...sounds like the tin wrap Rwynolds makws
2:50 pm
MollyL
Or Reynolds
2:50 pm
lilliann
Molly, i meant the tomato sauce was similar
2:52 pm
MollyL
It's just culture clash. Here, tomato sauce and ketchup are two different things
2:52 pm
lilliann
Some people here put in chopped peppers and even bacon.we all make things differently.i never follow a recipe completely as there are things i don't like.
2:53 pm
lilliann
I know, i make a tomato sauce out of tinned chopped tomatoes or pasata
2:53 pm
hego
Bolognese in Europe is very thick with all the liquid cooked out. Not so different from the sloppy joe consistency.
2:54 pm
hego
pssato is strained tomatos
2:54 pm
lilliann
It's basically a tomato sauce which isn't lumpy and all seeds drained
2:54 pm
lilliann
*strained
2:54 pm
hego
called because it is passed thru a food mill.
2:54 pm
hego
no seeds or peels
2:54 pm
bichon
ok that's tomato paste here
2:54 pm
lilliann
I would say sieve hego :)
2:55 pm
bichon
it's condensed too
2:55 pm
lilliann
no, our tamato paste is ina tube and thicker
2:55 pm
hego
no, condensed is puree
2:55 pm
bichon
ok then it's tomato puree
2:56 pm
bichon
my we sure have differences of opinion here about tomatos
2:56 pm
lilliann
I know, i typed the same time as you Bich.yes, tomato puree
2:56 pm
hego
You can buy in most supermarkets here under the Pomi name. It's very nice for sauce.
2:57 pm
lilliann
We also call it condensed, well when it says that on a tin, but it normally comes in tube and says puree, which is the same as condensed basically
2:57 pm
bichon
And you can buy many, many ready made pasta sauces
2:57 pm
hego
Americans are not really familiar with passato.
2:58 pm
hego
Just strained tomatos really.
2:58 pm
lilliann
Yes, we have loads here too Bichon, but i always make my own
2:58 pm
bichon
Homemade is best
2:58 pm
lilliann
Yes Hego.I bought some today in a carton for 50p as sometimes i don't want lumpy tomatoes in things
2:58 pm
bichon
I find that the store made ones have too much salt and sugar
2:59 pm
crosshair
you say tomato, I say tomahto.. let's call the whole thing off.. ;))
2:59 pm
lilliann
I think so, as then i know exactly what is in it and majority of the ingredients are fresh
2:59 pm
hego
It's a nice product to have on hand.
3:00 pm
Scrabbler
Tomatoes are just delicious!
3:00 pm

I have made my own tomato sauce as in cooked down tomatoes and sieved but it can be time consuming
3:00 pm

Not "Hilarious" molly. it is quite simple; you take five feet of snow on Friday, and you add plus 14 Celsius on the following Monday and you have floods and roofs collapsing under the weight of waterlogged snow build-up. Buffalo is also bracing for this, not just Canadians:)

another bit of Yiddish found in American English, but with less frequency as that language dies and memory of WWII fades.

I've never heard Yiddish here; but then again I don't know it at alll

Yidish is one of the languages in my family. Though from Bremen, so instead of standard 'oy gevalt' it's 'oy vey fer shimmel'. :)
10:12 pm
Bugsaw
which translates to....
10:12 pm
dcseain
me too, Nef, but eventually it'll be as distant as the 100 years war.
10:12 pm
Nef
Where is Bremen?
10:12 pm
dcseain
oy gevalt -- roughly an incredulous 'oh brother'.
10:12 pm
dcseain
NE Germany
10:12 pm
dcseain
sorry, NW Germany duh.
10:13 pm
dcseain
between Netherlands and Denmark
10:13 pm
Bugsaw
I thot that was oy vey
10:13 pm
Nef
Thanks. I don't think I've ever heard of it before.
10:13 pm
dcseain
oy vey is regular, oy gevalt is emphatic.
10:14 pm
dcseain
Oy gevalt, the House voted to repeal the Healthcare Act again, while we want for jobs still.
10:15 pm
Nef
So what does "oy vey fer shimmel" mean?
10:16 pm
dcseain
about the same as oy gevalt, but less polite :)
10:16 pm

my heritage is Gaelic. My grandmother called me an eejit child.
10:18 pm
dcseain
when we did something stupid, my great-grandma with native Hungarian and Slovak, would say 'What are you, a dumb condenser?"
10:18 pm
dcseain
we've no clue where she tog that from, but we know what she meant. :)
10:18 pm
Bugsaw
exactly. Took me years to figure out she meant idiot
10:19 pm
dcseain
LOL bugs
10:19 pm
Nef
cute stories, you 2! :-)
10:20 pm
Bugsaw
I thot it was a term of endearment
10:20 pm
dcseain
i'm sure it was, bugs, for she knew full well by then most of what children generally would and would not know. :)
10:22 pm
Bugsaw
I am sure it was too. I called my kids and now the kids I tutor "wee beasties" and they love it.
10:22 pm
Bugsaw
I hate re words
10:22 pm
Nef
we were never called dumb or stupid. The worst thing I was ever called was "slow enough to make a saint swear"
10:23 pm
Bugsaw
I love that Nef altho I would never use it
10:24 pm
Nef
*I* don't use it either. And it was always just me that they said that about (because I was always the last one; so it fit)
10:24 pm
Bugsaw
I remember having an arguement with another kid about whether "Hells Bells" was swearing or not. I was sure it wasn't because my Dad said it all the time and he was perfect
10:29 pm
Nef
I'm trying to think about what my Grandmother and Aunt would call my siblings. My younger sister was called "Slamhammer Jones" (she could never close a door quietly), and a brother was called a "Hammer head Norwegian" (his head was kind of long and bumpy); but I can't remember what the others were called
10:33 pm
Bugsaw
My poor brother was called Speed becuase he was the slowest moving person on earth. I don't he has ever even walked fast.
10:33 pm
Bugsaw
I like Slammhammer Jones. It has a ring to it.
10:34 pm
dcseain
my mom's initials are LAG an she does.
10:34 pm
Bugsaw
If we camped in the bathroom too long (ie long enough to miss helping with the dishes) we were called Biffelia, because we were in the biffy so long
10:35 pm
Nef
We had a weekend together (the 6 of us that grew up together, the 2 half-sibs didn't make it). And she Still can't close a door without slamming it.
10:35 pm
Bugsaw
that is important too seain. We decided not to call one son Evan Thomas because he would en dup being ET
10:36 pm
dcseain
my mom was born with LAS :)
10:36 pm
Nef
well, I was later diagnosed with hypothyroid and then (at the age of 21) diagnosed with narcolepsy; so we now know why I was so slow
10:37 pm
dcseain
her and her siblings were LAS, LES, and LAS, now LAG, LES, and LAS. :)
10:37 pm
dcseain
indeed, nef!
10:37 pm
Bugsaw
You did have it ruff didn't you Nef? wow
10:39 pm
Nef
I don't think that made life rough, Bugs. It's kind of funny now
10:39 pm
dcseain
it's so nice when we get to the point we can laugh about stuff.
10:39 pm
Bugsaw
ok now, but then it must have bugged you
10:39 pm
dcseain

10:40 pm
dcseain

10:40 pm
Bugsaw
good to chat with you again seain. sweet dreams. I have 3 left and will soon be off too
10:40 pm
Nef
Not really. I couldn't understand why I was slow; now I realize I must have been asleep part time
10:40 pm
Nef
Niters, Seain. Take Care
10:41 pm
Bugsaw
Did they let you drive as a teen Nef?
10:42 pm
Nef
no; I didn't get my driver's License until I bought my first car (at 21, before I was diagnosed)
10:43 pm
Bugsaw
that must have been scary when you realized you could have been asleep at the wheel
10:43 pm
Nef
we really didn't have a car that would have passed the driver ed. inspection I don't think
10:44 pm
Nef
Bugs, I could tell a lot of silly stories; but not here.
10:44 pm
Matches

10:44 pm
Bugsaw
I am sure we will meet one day Nef and we will still have lots of stories to share. I am done now so soon off.
10:45 pm
Nef
The one I will tell is the time it took me 12 hours to drive from Grand Forks, ND to Winnepeg, Manatoba.
10:45 pm
Nef
