1:36 am

grannyrose

cooee and g'day from me

1:55 am

flosey

hi Rose, just came back - thought I was going to get an early night tonight

1:58 am

grannyrose

hi flosey. your head still buzzing, hin?

1:58 am

flosey

yup

1:59 am

flosey

hate to do it but maybe I should speak to the dr about it

1:59 am

grannyrose

poor you.

2:01 am

flosey

constant buzzing - sounds like a head full of cicadas

2:03 am

grannyrose

flosey, do you have tinnitis?

2:04 am

flosey

that's what I think it is

2:04 am

flosey

has not been diagnosed

2:04 am

flosey

have never spoken about it with the dr

2:05 am

grannyrose

might be an idea, flosey. there are some meds which can help.

2:08 am

flosey

I know I miss a lot of conversations due to it - one on one is ok, it's when there are others entering into conversation and looking at other people when talking

2:09 am

grannyrose

that's hard for you, flosey.

2:10 am

flosey

very frustrating - sometimes just close it all out

2:10 am

flosey

except for the ringing!!

2:15 am

grannyrose

oh, dear! i know that feeling/sound. i have bad tinnitus in my right ear, and to a certain extent in my left. you close your eyes to sleep and all you can hear is the pitched squealing noise.

2:15 am

rururocks

I had that once. It is very upsetting

2:16 am

grannyrose

g'day ruru

2:16 am

flosey

did you have it attended to ru? or did it just go away?

2:16 am

rururocks

Mine went away

2:17 am

flosey

I've just kept hoping it would, maybe time to look into it

2:18 am

rururocks

Have you checked you blood pressure lately?

2:19 am

flosey

yes and I think I should have my machine checked - have had it maybe 5 years - did change batteries but no different, was a bit higher than usual

2:19 am

flosey

I do have meds for that

2:20 am

rururocks

That might be a contributor to it

2:22 am

flosey

thanks Ru and Rose, I will see Dr

2:23 am

grannyrose

yay flosey. it's a good decision hin

2:23 am

rururocks

Good

2:43 am

grannyrose

2:45 am

2:45 am

it is a truly beautiful winter day here. Sun is out, blue skies and that crisp cold clean winter air.

4:06 am

grannyrose

nice sprite....

4:07 am

sprite

yeah it is nice. Are you watching television?

4:07 am

grannyrose

sort of....don't want to distract you from the grid.

4:08 am

sprite

chat with me, darling. I enjoy talking with you while babbling. No distraction.

4:09 am

grannyrose

okay. hip still being a female dog. it's scary. i 'm not sure what is going on.

4:09 am

grannyrose

don is definitely feeling better. he ate dinner.btw, did you cook the fried rice?

4:10 am

sprite

I can imagine :( I think it is a very good idea to speed up the appointment. And take it from there. If only we lived closer together :(

4:10 am

worzel

Goooooooooood morning fellow Babblers xx

4:10 am

sprite

don't you have local nurses there, who can come in once or twice a day to help? We have here.

4:10 am

grannyrose

don is so proud, really. he won't like knowing he can't take care of me.

4:11 am

sprite

hey worzel, me nephew, how's life?

4:11 am

grannyrose

xoxoxoxoxox WORZEL!!! hello dear son.

4:11 am

worzel

Hello mum!!! xxxx Hello aunty sprite xxxx All is good here. How are things with you two? xx

4:11 am

sprite

yeah well, rose, pride is a luxury and one he cannot afford right now.

4:12 am

sprite

I am good, thanks.

4:16 am

worzel

can't be doing with all these es lol

4:17 am

sprite

tell road runner that meep meep is not a word

4:17 am

grannyrose

a few problems with the hips, son. how is princess diane?

4:18 am

worzel

Awww Diane is stunning as always. She's just gotten up and sitting next to me on the sofa, outshining the morning sun that has graced us with it's presence! Sorry to hear about your hips, I'll come round and give them a massage if you like xx

4:18 am

sprite

when you get there, you should stay for a bit and help take care of rose post op!

4:19 am

grannyrose

oh, no you won't. that is strictly hands off territory. it hurts too much. xoxoxox diane, dear

4:19 am

worzel

She says hello, Mum! And what's this operation about? xx

4:21 am

grannyrose

sweetie, i have torn both tendons in both hips. i am going to see my ortho surgeon to see what he wants to do. dad's shoulder is still giving him gyp. so i cannot have the hips operated on until dad can take care of me.

4:22 am

sprite

how about the question I had about the local nurses, rose?

4:22 am

worzel

I shall send you both a healing angel, if you agree xx

4:25 am

grannyrose

good idea, sprite. he would come at the idea of visiting nurses i think.

4:25 am

grannyrose

ta son.

4:26 am

worzel

welcome Mum and give Dad my best wishes and tell him to stop fannying around pretending to be ill - typical man! Me ma needs looking after!!! xx

4:26 am

sprite

that would be good, rose. If a nurse can help you once or twice a day, Don can do the rest... pride saved, situation solved. I don't think you have the luxury to postpone these ops much longer. You are in too much pain.

4:27 am

grannyrose

roflol, wor.....nuh uh, not going to say that to him. you do it!!

4:27 am

worzel

brb doggie needs the garden x

4:32 am

grannyrose

so, sprite?? did you end up cooking the fried rice or not?

4:33 am

sprite

I did and it was delish! We all loved the recipe. Will certainly cook it again.

4:34 am

grannyrose

the five spice makes all the difference doesn't it?

4:35 am

sprite

absolutely. Such a great blend of flavours.

4:35 am

grannyrose

and once it is in the pan, it pretty much does itself. i think that's the best part.

4:37 am

sprite

yeah the preparation takes most of the time, after that it is easy sailing :)

4:38 am

grannyrose

i hope it didn't wear you out too much.

4:39 am

sprite

I don't know what did, actually, but I had a very bad night and then yesterday morning I was so incredibly tired that I went back to bed... and slept till dinner. Sigh.

4:40 am

grannyrose

you just needed to sleep. you did have that atrocious night a few days back, remember?

4:41 am

sprite

yeah that is true, and then a similar one from friday to saturday. Am definitely feeling a little better today.

4:42 am

grannyrose

ugh...you poor thing. that makes sense then...

4:42 am

sprite

just minor stuff, rose, compared to your situation. I count my blessings.

4:43 am

grannyrose

aww, bless you, dear. i think we are on a par actually.

4:44 am

sprite

*hugs* let me know what you can find out about visiting nurses. And of course what the ortho says.

4:46 am

grannyrose

tomorrow, will call the ortho. and will go from there, okay?

4:46 am

sprite

absolutely. I'll have your back through it all, I promise.

4:50 am

grannyrose

5:06 am

grannyrose

5:06 am

sprite

good job.

5:08 am

grannyrose

after 10pm here. i am taking night-time meds now.

5:08 am

sprite

if you want to go to bed, just go, sweetie. Your body needs rest and so does your spirit

5:09 am

grannyrose

if my posts all of a sudden appear to be garbage ( more than usual ) it prolly means i am face down on the keyboard....lol

5:10 am

5:12 am

sprite

wow good job!

5:13 am

sprite

for some obscure reason I had trouble with greying out the D tile. Never saw the percussion instrument, or the call of.

5:13 am

grannyrose

earlier there was no lickety. and i was able to contribute to volleymomdee's and ruru's quest for words.

5:14 am

grannyrose

and i totally missed the obligation...

5:14 am

sprite

lol yes, same as me, the call of.

5:15 am

grannyrose

oh and i actually helped out broll...now there is one incredible player.

5:15 am

sprite

5:16 am

grannyrose

and of course...not to mention....but i will...ta dah~~sprite

5:17 am

sprite

lol nah, I am not a speedster at all. I just play for the fun of it.

5:19 am

sprite

oh man, I could sleep again! Will try and stay up though... don't want to switch my day-and-night rhythm, lol.

5:20 am

sprite

*hugs rose* Sleep well, my dear friend. And let me know how it goes tomorrow.

5:21 am

grannyrose

wonder what happened to our worzel? he went to take the dog out...then nothing...mind you, princess diane was up...maybe we don't want to know the answer.

5:21 am

sprite

hot steamy sex, prolly

5:21 am

grannyrose

sprite, set an alarm. give yourself permission for a couple of hours.

5:22 am

sprite

Question Une, where do you do your dog transports from

6:56 am

I also went to bed with a heating pad :)

6:56 am

expecting some snow tonite and tomorrow morning -- what makes me nervous is the prediction of sleet/freezing rain on top of that -- local drivers are NUTS!

I drive a leg or two of transports that sometimes start as far away as Texas and end in Canada or New England

Right now, the cat is sitting on the radiator.

6:58 am

Riverdance

Where do you travel from and to when you take the pups to their forever homes

6:58 am

Uneaixoise

the dogs in yesterday's transports were heading to Vermont but are now staying a week in Cleveland due to risky weather for drivers

6:58 am

sukee

I'm stuck, not finding any new words, 60 to go

6:59 am

Riverdance

I have a friend in florida that runs a rescue and is always looking for transport

6:59 am

Uneaixoise

i just drive a leg or two of transports that last one, two, or three days

6:59 am

I lie, found one that is the name of someone who frequents the chog.

7:00 am

Now it is time for Crossy's tidbit of the day!! This morning I have been watching some of my favorite musical duo's on You Tube, and I have one that i would like to share with you. There are many good singers out there, but as i went through some of the more modern stuff, I found that the two people singing seemed more concerned with how they appeared to the audience than how well they performed with their singing partner, and as a result they ended up with a cold and sterile delivery. I had to go back a little bit to find one that I wanted to share but this one by Neil Diamond & Barbara Streisand is a perfect example of how it should be done. They are singing to each other, and not the audience. You can almost feel the heat of lost love rekindling itself as they sing for each other and let some of what they are trying to express leak out into the audience for all those watching them to share. A older song, but one well worth sharing, with Barb's voice at its best. http://tinyurl.com/k645fmz

I'm always glad when a country stops flying the flag of another country and gets one of their own.

I remember living up noth you had to take special care that you had proper tire inflation on your car during the winter because if the tire was under-pressurized and it got down to -45 minus 50, you would end up with a temporary flat spot on your ties and you would have to go real slow until the rubber found its proper shape once more

I went through that, Crossy, then got ice shields and a new roof, but that didn't solve the problem. Some people here get a second roof 12-18 inches on top of the orginal roof, and keep asphalt shingles.

Good old route 13.

There are no tolls yet in CT, but I think they are coming

9:39 am

You are going to run into a ton of snow in CT. Poor New England is getting hammered this winter.

That is called "buttoning" and is not allowed here anymore,sscrabby as it always fails in time

Nice metal roof is thew way to go

I think Bichon will probably be on 95, Hego.

It's not so bad in CT., Boston is the worst

I think half the planet passes through Delaware at rush hour. Traffic on 95 becomes a parking lot.

9:43 am

hego

Have spent many hours on route 95.

9:43 am

hego

Why I take 13 sometimes Judi. or 305.

9:44 am

bichon

We take 295 after the Delaware bridge to pay less in tolls

9:44 am

hego

I like 295. A well kept secret.

9:45 am

Better to not give them toll money

Where in Maine do you live, Penquis?

9:48 am

ah...doing ok....not as much snow as predicted and it should be stopping soon.....windy, though, so drifting is a problem....

9:50 am

The only "toll" road we have it Hwy #407 and it is a fast route into the city and uses window mounted transponders and you pay-per use as you go on and off the highway. Mostly for citiots in a hurry. I have never used it.

9:50 am

hego

Well wait till the wind settles down, at least.

9:51 am

Judi

Now that Crossy has a jeep, he just goes overland (like sled dogs).

9:51 am

I try to stay out in the country here as urban/suburban driving and life makes me crazy.

9:52 am

Almost, judi:) the other day I had to blaze a trail out of our parking lot to the road so cars could get out to the main road which had already been plowed

Another foot, less the pre-storm of 3' which we shoveled last night.

9:59 am

9:59 am

Poor Boston.

9:59 am

car.eeyore

I have stopped watching them. Can't take it. More snow coming in a few days.

9:59 am

Jeez louize! When it finally melts, there is going to be some major flooding.

10:00 am

Are the kids going to school at all?

10:00 am

This is vacation week...thank goodness. We have only missed 5 days.

10:01 am

Unfortunately, when it melts it is going to go right through out basement.

10:01 am

hego

Not too bad.

10:01 am

Probably too much snow ever for the kids. Especially as cold as it is. No fun for anyone.

10:01 am

Judi

Between the storms last night, around 10:30, it was gorgeous!

Ah! Cookies make everything better.

When the kids and my mom get under my skin, I go outside and shovel.

10:03 am

Cookies and wookies.

10:04 am

Judi, it kept them busy too.

10:04 am

car.eeyore

everytime I have made cookies with my kids, I get so frustrated. Not sure why.

10:06 am

... the cookies or the kids?

10:06 am

Not sure about anyone else, but if I had small children and sent them out to play today, I could get arrested for child abuse. It's negative 10 with the wind chill.

10:06 am

That and the fact they would sink into the snow.

10:11 am

Gak...husband is already trying to establish a "schedule" to go out and shovel. I'll go out when I want, thank you!

10:12 am

Too many too fast. Got to the party after work. Thought I was being cool and catching up .

He has been a machine about shoveling. And now we found out that I am good with my back for about 2 hours, i have to offer what I can do.

10:13 am

I don't shovel snow anymore. My back does not cooperate.

10:14 am

That's why we bought a snow blower

10:14 am

MollyL

I say let the male children go out and shovel.

10:14 am

No shit! That's what I say too! But they start to whine and he sends them in. Drives me nuts.

My favorite: "Oh, this stuff is too heavy for them". WTF?!??!

10:14 am

We only got about 3 inches of snow last night. Not even worth getting the shovel out.

10:14 am

MollyL

Good advice Dose.

10:15 am

car.eeyore

I'll go out when this wind stops.

10:15 am

Mr. Bich clears the driveway if it's only an inch

10:16 am

MollyL

Too heavy for them? Oh dear God.

10:16 am

i will go out soon to shovel out and move the car....doesn't look too bad....don't want to wait until it gets colder...

10:16 am

doseffing

... we haven't had your snow ... but I've been religous about shoveling every two to three hours ... don't get it done and get laughed at by younger neighbours ... but in the morning I've got 3 inches on the driveway when they've got a foot to do

10:17 am

car.eeyore

I am on board with that too, Doseffing, but not with this wind...and most of the snow came overnight.

10:23 am

MollyL

With gusts up to 65 miles per hour, blizzard conditions and a temperature (with the wind chill) of -2, I don't think anyone needs to be outside doing anything.

around 16 years old. We adopted him in 2000, he was estimated to be 1.5-2 years old.

11:32 am

he also has hyperthyroidism and kidney disease.

Jes, the vet that is coming to my house isn't actually my current vet. Though she will be now. She is one that is a house call vet. She is coming to me this evening at 6:30 and she doesn't even know me from adam.

11:38 am

jesdraggon

ah. well, it's good someone's available, then. A lot of doctors don't do home euthanasia, so it's good that's available too.

11:39 am

phandmd

yes. She is a well loved local vet that left the practice she was part of and started up this home vet service. I have heard wonderful things about her and her great love for animals is already apparent to me.

11:41 am

do you have other cats, or is Bagheera a one-kitty guy?

oh?

12:50 pm

cybernan

to in canada

12:50 pm

mattygroves

Same in the UK - to

12:51 pm

MLFAN17

that would be a different word here in the us i think?

12:51 pm

Dorens

in the usa it is a chef's hat

12:53 pm

cybernan

I suspect that once again usa lexicographers have spelled things to suit themselves

12:53 pm

Dorens

I think that spelling originated in France Cyber

12:54 pm

cybernan

to is also for a chef's hat - just checked

12:55 pm

cybernan

the to may have originated in france, but it is still the accepted sp here and in britain

12:57 pm

rururocks

well.. that settles that then.. if Britain and Canada spell it that way the whole world should

12:57 pm

cybernan

I was not being snide about usa lexicographers --- look at all the other english words they have changed the sp. for --- just about all words ending in our for one and in re for another

12:58 pm

rururocks

it did come off a little condescending as a comment

12:58 pm

Anniebrook

Hi, Just blew in

12:58 pm

rururocks

hi Annie

12:58 pm

Anniebrook

hi ruru :)

12:59 pm

cybernan

I guess I just don't like that usa has changed the spelling of so many english words

1:00 pm

rururocks

mostly they just drop the U don't they?

1:01 pm

cybernan

though and tho, through and thru -- there are a few of those as well

1:01 pm

nrkii

and change re to er :)

1:01 pm

nrkii

wait, who uses tho and thru?

1:01 pm

cybernan

I've seen them in lots of us crosswords and here

1:02 pm

rururocks

I use Through

1:02 pm

cybernan

not that enable counts for much

1:02 pm

rururocks

I don't use thru or tho

1:02 pm

nrkii

yeah, I always consider thru to be almost slang

1:02 pm

rururocks

texting has destroyed the English language I think

1:02 pm

cybernan

agreed

1:02 pm

nrkii

and I've never seen tho

1:04 pm

rururocks

I always wince when professional sports players misuse the language.. "he don't always show up!"

1:05 pm

nrkii

the theater/theatre or niter/nitre thing is just a minor annoyance from my perspective... I could argue that the US version is a bit easier phonically, but whatever... I love seeing it written the UK way

1:06 pm

cybernan

that one is not exclusive to the us, ru

1:06 pm

nrkii

I wince and have to restrain myself when someone writes "could of"

1:06 pm

MollyL

Damn Americans. First we kick the British out, then we change their language.

1:07 pm

rururocks

Thank god we still drink tea though (or tho?)

1:07 pm

rbud

I like the British spellings better in many cases, often use "colour" and "grey" - maybe I'm trying to be exotic? or just pretentious, lol

1:08 pm

nrkii

I much prefer grey to gray, but I can't bring myself to add the letter u to things

1:08 pm

hego

Hi Folks

1:08 pm

rururocks

yeah try calling Oprah a woman of Colour to her face Rbud :d

1:08 pm

rururocks

hi hegs

1:09 pm

hego

Hi nrkii and Rbud! Haven't seen you 2 for a while.

1:09 pm

rbud

hello, hego! :) lol, ru, I'd never dare to! :D

1:09 pm

Hi Ru

1:09 pm

she'd buy your house and kick you out

1:09 pm

rururocks

Is he being bad again?

1:10 pm

rururocks

<moi? mais non

1:10 pm

hego

or should I say as usual.

1:10 pm

nrkii

Hi Hego! Good to see you. I'm usually here every day, but have become a lurker because of crazy work schedule... no time for chatting, and I feel bad asking for clues without contributing to the chat

1:10 pm

hego

Mai oui!

1:10 pm

Bonjour tout le monde!!

Hi Peri!

1:14 pm

nrkii

qu5 - line (as in at the department of motor vehicles)

1:14 pm

rbud

I like when just a couple of letters pop into the chat, from someone who never talks, and everyone greets them warmly... :D

1:14 pm

MollyL

That's because you don't read Facebook, Ru
: P

1:14 pm

nrkii

other 2 build off of that

1:14 pm

snarky stuff like that assures me my decision to stay off facebook was a good one

1:16 pm

hego

You could join as your Babble name like Crossy.

1:16 pm

hego

Actually we have a lot of fun on FB.

1:17 pm

rbud

facebook to me is more of a gateway drug, just to get to where I really want to be, playing a few of the games. but you can't help but notice a lot on the way through. :p

1:17 pm

hego

We have a Babble community that Crossy created for us where we can be in touch.

1:18 pm

rbud

plus I'm a member of a few really good pages, where a bunch of us crazy old ladies share a lot and support each other through rough times - kind of nice, like here. :)

1:18 pm

nrkii

I joined facebook several years ago so I could play "scrabble" with babble friends... rest is history... so many good connections and reconnections there

1:18 pm

rururocks

It is very nice rbud.

Some folks don't have the sense to realize that they are in public there and to behave accordingly.

1:21 pm

ugh!!!!

1:21 pm

nrkii

sorry!!!

1:21 pm

rururocks

LOL nrkii

1:21 pm

hego

Was waiting for that even as I typed it. :)

1:21 pm

1:21 pm

no doubt nan

the dangers of habitual lurkers unlurking

1:22 pm

1:22 pm

rururocks

even gmail.. does stuff like that

1:22 pm

rbud

yeah, you sure have to know how to block stuff you don't want to see, and people who irritate you, etc. My fb experience is mostly pleasant now, after years of refining. (now if I had the nerve to block my sis, lol... j/k)

1:22 pm

1:28 pm

rururocks

I get to drive with the top down on my car today :D

1:29 pm

1:29 pm

rururocks

but the Snow is "pretty" isn't it?

1:29 pm

Aloyisius

if my lemonade is delivered by a cabana boy..

1:29 pm

hego

You mean because it's not raining for a change.

1:29 pm

rururocks

<---bad weather in California.. (partly sunny)

1:29 pm

MollyL

The cabana boys are on strike

1:30 pm

rbud

see, now this is where the fb "like" button comes in handy, would be nice to be able to use it on you folks and your supremely witty comment, lol

1:30 pm

hego

virtual cabana boys do not strike!

1:30 pm

rururocks

love your icon molly..did you find that at creepy icons.com where BR goes?

1:31 pm

nrkii

I sincerely miss the "like" button here in the chat

1:31 pm

Aloyisius

the weemee brought it to her, ruru

1:31 pm

hego

Ruru is easily creeped out.

1:31 pm

MollyL

Oh you poor deprived child. You never saw the Rankin Bass special "Santa Clause Is Comin' To Town"? That is the Winter Warlock.

1:31 pm

hego

nrkii true!

1:31 pm

rururocks

what do you mean nrkii?

1:31 pm

hego

oops!!

1:32 pm

hego

On FB if you like something you push like.

1:32 pm

rbud

yay, winter warlock!! I like the abominable snowguy, too, and the island of misfit toys.

1:32 pm

rururocks

oh

1:32 pm

Aloyisius

def. need a "dislike" button too

1:33 pm

rururocks

gulp

1:33 pm

rbud

it's a little thumbs-up icon (in fb) - and yes, wish there was a thumbs down also, Aloy!

1:33 pm

hego

Oh, totally agree!

1:33 pm

cybernan

em 6/24 following the kiwi bird, please?

1:33 pm

nrkii

I bet they tested the "dislike" and found that people were more likely to quit FB if dislike was an option... just think of all the bad ways it could be used

1:33 pm

rururocks

emus that commute use em6

1:34 pm

Aloyisius

I mean, friends report ill children and relatives.. all kinds of things that are not good news

1:34 pm

MollyL

Because being judgmental in real life just isn't enough...

1:34 pm

nrkii

I've seen it on YouTube, where people give a video a thumbs down, and then people fight about it. Sad.

1:34 pm

rururocks

LOLOLOL

1:34 pm

hego

and all you can hit is like

1:34 pm

rururocks

*water ...water.. everywhere*

1:34 pm

Aloyisius

I just use "comment"

1:35 pm

hego

so do I

1:35 pm

Aloyisius

looking for that em6, gotta be good

1:36 pm

cybernan

commuting clue doesn't make any sense to me

1:36 pm

rururocks

emus that go to work have to em6

1:36 pm

Aloyisius

not emutoy

1:36 pm

hego

I don't have that one either

1:38 pm

cybernan

only place I've ever seen them is in a zoo

1:38 pm

Aloyisius

our neighbor had one for a while but got rid of it because it pokes at anything shiny.. including his horse's eye

1:39 pm

rururocks

there was one near my old house.. the dogs were fascinated by it

1:39 pm

hego

oh! awful!

1:39 pm

cybernan

winery with the castle?

1:39 pm

rururocks

Castello Amarosa in Napa Cyber

1:39 pm

hego

Near Ruru in Napa

1:39 pm

hego

So so wine, but great Tuscan castle.

1:40 pm

rururocks

really so-so wine

1:40 pm

rururocks

hego would love to live in the castle though I bet

1:40 pm

Aloyisius

are you a Napa native, ruru.. or how did you wind up in such a place?

1:40 pm

hego

I was being kind

1:40 pm

cybernan

oh -- only winery I've been where there was anything resembling a castle was in OR

1:41 pm

rururocks

I grew up in the Bay Area Aloy.. moved to Napa when I got in the Wine biz from College

1:41 pm

hego

Not really Ru. I like the modern conveniences.

1:41 pm

Aloyisius

ah so.. a native Californian

1:41 pm

rururocks

1:42 pm

rururocks

Darryl Satui is a really nice guy though

1:42 pm

rururocks

1:43 pm

hego

I heard that.

1:43 pm

rururocks

very generous and helpful in the community.. I admire that

1:43 pm

hego

Great marketing idea that.

1:43 pm

rururocks

omg .. thousands visit there hego.. weekly

1:44 pm

hego

I saw that.

1:44 pm

rururocks

more Iphone pics than you can shake a stick at :D

1:45 pm

talking to hubby about dash display yesterday.. "transmission temp high".. scared me and I came home

1:50 pm

Dorens

not good aloy

1:51 pm

hego

hi doren

1:51 pm

Aloyisius

we are looking in the manual.. can't figure out what caused it

1:51 pm

Aloyisius

hi Dorens

1:51 pm

Aloyisius

trans. fluid ok

1:53 pm

bichon

maybe a computer glitch Aloy

1:53 pm

hego

sometimes a sensor

1:54 pm

hego

knowing how are computers usually perform, doesn't it make you feel secure to know that your car is now a computer?

1:55 pm

Aloyisius

possibility.. hope that is the case.. have had this car 15 years and never saw that warning.. when I came home, hubby took it out, ran it up to 80mph on back roads.. and NADA, like it never happened.. h'mm

1:56 pm

Aloyisius

eek hego, with my luck and computers.. eek

1:56 pm

hego

lolol

1:56 pm

rururocks

was he racing with Justin Bieber alloy?

1:56 pm

hego

Just don't drink coffee in it.

1:57 pm

Aloyisius

LOL hego!

1:57 pm

hego

:)

1:58 pm

Aloyisius

maybe so, ruru.. he put it in "sports mode" for rapid acceleration.. I think he beat Justin

1:58 pm

hego

Love to drive in sports mode!

1:59 pm

Aloyisius

vrooom... hego passes everyone!

1:59 pm

Bill calls me the little old lady from Pasadena.

2:01 pm

penquis

i am back from the cold...dug my car out....silk longjohns, flannel lined jeans, scarf mask, hood on....wasn't too bad....only my fingertips got cold...

2:01 pm

penquis

my niece in southern Maine got 21 inches....we only got about 7....

2:01 pm

hego

Did it stop?

2:01 pm

Aloyisius

brrrrrrrrrrr

2:01 pm

penquis

yes, stopped late this morning, but the wind is very strong...brutal....

2:02 pm

jesdraggon

silk longjohns? I didn't even know that was a thing, penquis. Tell me more!

2:02 pm

hego

jes is intrigued

2:02 pm

penquis

yes, and i have silk undershirt, too...

2:02 pm

rururocks

didn't Michael Jackson wear silk longjohns?

2:03 pm

hego

You sexy thing!

2:03 pm

penquis

don't know.....we were never that close...

2:03 pm

hego

Not any more Ruru

2:03 pm

jesdraggon

jes has Reynaud's and serious issues with cold weather - comfy longjohns might save her from frostbite someday!

2:03 pm

penquis

they make it easier to get pants on....easier than cotton or flannel ones...

2:03 pm

hego

Oh, I hope so. Stay nice and warm jes.

2:03 pm

Aloyisius

lightweight, comfortable and efficient

2:03 pm

hego

Penq, are they warm.

2:04 pm

rururocks

I'm into anything that makes it easier to get pants off

2:04 pm

penquis

i bought mine years ago, don't remember where....but i bought a new pair a month ago on sale at LL Bean....

2:04 pm

nrkii

I have Reynaud's as well, and silk is very helpful... long johns, sock liners, glove liners...

2:04 pm

Aloyisius

that is where we bought ours, penquis

2:04 pm

hego

On! She said on Ry.

2:04 pm

Aloyisius

and they have lasted a LONG time!

2:04 pm

nrkii

I used to get them at EMS, but now just order from Amazon if I need new ones.

2:04 pm

rururocks

oh

2:04 pm

jesdraggon

i wear lined gloves inside of wool mittens, nrkii. mittens are my bestest friends some days.

2:06 pm

rururocks

brutal cold out here lately is 60 degrees

2:06 pm

nrkii

yeah, jes, I often find it's better to go gloveless to avoid a Raynaud's episode. Oddly enough bare hands sometimes are better than gloved. Mittens are awesome but so hard to do anything in them.

2:07 pm

penquis

ru...that is the temp of our ocean in the summer... ;o)

2:07 pm

hego

:)

2:07 pm

rururocks

our ocean is always freezing out here

2:07 pm

penquis

freezing to you would probably be warm to us....

2:08 pm

jesdraggon

gloveless = serious pain for me. mittens mean I can usually accomplish chores without my fingers being dead-flesh purple followed by re-perfusion pain.

2:08 pm

rururocks

I was reading that there are more shark attacks in Florida than anywhere else in the country.. by a substantial number

2:08 pm

hego

No the Pacific is cold.

2:08 pm

worzel

Evening all xx

2:08 pm

nrkii

Jes, depends on what I have to do... if it's just walking from house to car, or car to office, I can go bare-handed. If I have to shovel, I must wear gloves and/or mittens.

2:10 pm

penquis

i went swimming once at the end of June and my feet went numb....

2:10 pm

penquis

hi worzel...

2:10 pm

jesdraggon

heh. i had ice cream last night, which caused my hands to go numb and purple. i am so broken.

2:10 pm

worzel

hi penquis

2:10 pm

nrkii

I went swimming in July in Maine, and lost feeling in my feet. But I loved it!

2:10 pm

jesdraggon

my cousin laughed at me because I was huddled in a heavy coat and driving gloves, eating ice cream.

2:11 pm

hego

Hi Worzel

2:11 pm

worzel

hiya hego

2:11 pm

nrkii

Jes, that's definitely worse than me. I can usually get away with ice cream as long as I don't hold the container for too long.

2:12 pm

jesdraggon

it makes me sad, because I used to love going out in winter; snow mobiling, or sledding, or riding my pony in the snow, and now I can barely get out to feed him without issues.

2:13 pm

nrkii

Oh jes, how old were you when your Raynaud's came on? I was 22 or 23.

2:13 pm

Aloyisius

hi worzel.. we are still reading the manual and I'm laughing.. should have read it 15 years ago!

2:13 pm

worzel

hi aloyisius

2:13 pm

jesdraggon

in retrospect started showing signs? or when it was diagnosed? signs probably 1996ish, diagnosed in 2005ish

2:14 pm

jesdraggon

so i'd have been 19 or 20 when i started noticing cold/white/numb finger tips but didn't realize it was an actual issue.

2:14 pm

nrkii

I don't know how old you are now, and don't mean to pry. Just a different disease if it shows up early vs. later.

2:15 pm

nrkii

Oh... that's good. Early!

Mine came on in 1991, and I was diagnosed about a week later because I freaked out completely.

2:16 pm

nrkii

First time it happened, it took 20 minutes to get the circulation back in my 2 affected fingers.

2:16 pm

nrkii

I had never heard of Raynaud's, and I'm a hypochondriac, so I figured I was dying.

2:17 pm

jesdraggon

i hadn't heard of it either, and didn't even mention it to the doctor - was an 'incidental' diagnosis, because my toes turned purple sitting in the exam room waiting for the doctor to arrive one time when I was in for my routine yearly

2:19 pm

nrkii

I remember visiting my brother's house several years ago, and they keep their house so cold that when I walked barefoot on the bathroom floor just before bed I ended up losing feeling in almost all my toes. It took about half an hour of a lot of discomfort to get them back to normal.

2:21 pm

jesdraggon

tried meds/they help at all? doc put me on calcium channel blocker but I quit after 1 dose because it caused migraine. yay.

2:22 pm

nrkii

No, I just deal with lifestyle changes. Keep emergency supplies in my car, and am careful not to ignore possible issues.

2:26 pm

nrkii

Is there a T4 missing from the list?

2:27 pm

jesdraggon

Amazing what you can find on your keyboard when mucking about..lol

4:21 pm

penquis

4:26 pm

zoozzoom

Does anyone have any suggestions on a large series of novels. Just finished my last lot and need some new ones to read?

4:27 pm

penquis

what kind of novels do you like?

4:28 pm

MollyL

Oh look at Zoom, he got the â™ªâ™«â™ªâ™« thing
: D

4:29 pm

zoozzoom

Just finished a seven book novel on Septimus heap. A magical wizard..also finished a book called white teeth by Sadi smith..Do not mind as long as it is not too much on crime and murder

4:29 pm

zoozzoom

Teehee! I have lots more, Molly :-)

4:30 pm

penquis

ah...i may not be the one to help you then....i read mostly mysteries....

4:32 pm

zoozzoom

Mysteries as in?

4:33 pm

penquis

crime...

4:33 pm

penquis

there is a good series of historical mysteries set in Henry VIII's time....would that interest you?....people do get killed...

4:35 pm

zoozzoom

Ah yes do not mind them..just want to try some books that are very long but kind of uplifting and don,t mind a bit of humour in them either.

4:35 pm

zoozzoom

What are they titled, Pen? Will look into them.

4:36 pm

penquis

just go to Amazon and search for Matthew Shardlake mysteries....CJ Ransom (sp?) is the author....but i would not call them uplifting.....and no humor.....just good historical novels...

4:36 pm

penquis

you should read them in order if you decide to read them...

4:37 pm

zoozzoom

4:37 pm

zoozzoom

Thank you, Pen.Will look now!

4:37 pm

penquis

wow.....never heard of that one....

4:38 pm

penquis

have you read Pillars of the Earth?....that's a very long book....a good read...

4:39 pm

wenchbabe

Cross Stitch / Outlander series by Diana Gabaldon. Love, honour, duty and a woman who has to keep her wits and humour about her in an unfamiliar time and place. Lots of humour and emotional pain.

4:40 pm

wenchbabe

turd

4:40 pm

wenchbabe

oops :o

4:40 pm

penquis

Cross Stitch??....i have read the Outlander series.....liked the first three books, but felt they were deteriorating.....didn't like the fourth one much...

4:42 pm

zoozzoom

The shardlake mysteries look rather good, Pen.Might go for those.

4:42 pm

penquis

i have enjoyed them and so have the friends i recommended them to....

4:42 pm

zoozzoom

Ok next is pillars of the earth & Cross stitch..checking them out now..Thank you, Pen & Wenchbabe :-)

4:43 pm

wenchbabe

First in the series was called Cross Stitch in the UK. I thought the first four were the best but all good.

4:43 pm

penquis

ah....ok...not called that here...

4:44 pm

zoozzoom

By Diana Gabaldon?

4:44 pm

wenchbabe

Yes.

4:45 pm

penquis

there is sort of a sequel to Pillars of the Earth written many years later....forget the title....i think they can stand alone though....

4:46 pm

zoozzoom

Those outlander ones are they a series??? as some just say outlander and others say outlander 1 through to 5?

4:47 pm

zoozzoom

6 even.

4:47 pm

penquis

yes, the story goes on and on....

4:47 pm

zoozzoom

Cool i will go for those too!

4:48 pm

penquis

have you read the James Clavell novels?...Shogun et al?

4:50 pm

zoozzoom

Ken Follet Edge of Eternity trilogy might be the ones after pillars of the earth..Dose that ring any bells, Pen?

4:50 pm

penquis

yes, i think those are the ones....i have not read them....

4:52 pm

zoozzoom

Just looked up the shogun ones..not my type of reading..But I thank you for the suggestion though!

4:53 pm

penquis

no problem...

4:59 pm

5:02 pm

zoozzoom

5:02 pm

zoozzoom

Tehn I say to myself..why on earth did i not read that earlier..lol

5:03 pm

Soodle

Zooz, if you rummaged around in your carboot sales for any of John Irvings novels, you would be doing yourself a huge favour. I almost got put off an aeroplane once for laughing so hysterically at The Hotel New Hampshire.

5:03 pm

penquis

for the last few months, i have been going through "Mount Bookpile"....trying to read stuff on the shelf....

5:03 pm

zoozzoom

Searching the author out now, Soodle, Thanks :-)

5:04 pm

Soodle

The World According To Garp is another I highly recommend.

5:06 pm

zoozzoom

He has done a lot of books, Soodle!

5:06 pm

penquis

well i am off to get dinner together....bye!

5:06 pm

zoozzoom

5:06 pm

zoozzoom

Thanks for the suggestions, Pen.Enjoy your meal :-)

5:07 pm

Soodle

At the moment I'm reading A Confederacy of Dunces. It's great.

5:08 pm

zoozzoom

John Kennedy Toole.

5:09 pm

Soodle

I'm also looking forward to reading Harper Lee's prequel to To Kill A Mockingbird. Anybody here read it yet?

5:10 pm

zoozzoom

To kill a mockingbird is a classic!

5:11 pm

zoozzoom

She thought she had lost the script to this book..but then it was found!

5:12 pm

zoozzoom

Go set a watchman is going to be the next one.

5:13 pm

zoozzoom

I do not think it has been published yet, Soodle.

5:13 pm

zoozzoom

Might go for..In Search of Lost Time, by Marcel Proust.

5:15 pm

zoozzoom

Sorry for hogging the chat everyone.You will be pleased to know I am now retiring for the evening ...Toodle pips for now :-)

5:16 pm

Soodle

Nite Zooz, ole pal. Sleep well.

5:21 pm

Soodle

Dunno if I ever said it before on Babble, but isn't Zooz a lovely person? He stays away from the drama, he is always pleasant. We are lucky to have him in our midst. Just thought I'd mention it. I'm off to bed now too. Night all.

5:21 pm
