3:08 am

*hugs rose* Hello dear friend. Looks like you washed it too hot as well. Was it that dirty?
3:08 am
grannyrose
well with all those nude words...col
3:08 am
sprite
lol... that was yesterday, you twit!
3:09 am
grannyrose
well yeah...duh...that's why i washed it.
3:09 am
sprite
hahahaha right. Well, what can I say... it happens.
3:09 am
grannyrose
hahahaha back at you.
3:10 am
sprite
how are you feeling today, rose?
3:10 am
grannyrose
not too bad. had a better night.
3:10 am
grannyrose
and you, sweetie?
3:10 am
sprite
that always helps. Don behaving today?
3:11 am
grannyrose
hmmmm....* looks don over * oh yeah....i like the way he says good morning.
3:12 am
sprite
uh-oh... that the only thing positive for today? :)
3:13 am
grannyrose
well, i have been taking it quietly. WE have gone through 3 boxes of stuff from both cars, deciding what to keep, what to put in the new car, and what to throw away.
3:14 am
sprite
awesome. Good job, darling.
3:14 am
grannyrose
btw.... i LIKE the WAY he says good morning.
3:14 am
grannyrose
is that clearer?
3:15 am
sprite
wild, sweaty, satisfying sex in the morning doesn't negate being grumpy and snappy later in the day... not fully anyway...
3:17 am
grannyrose
i hear ya, sistah. he has behaved the rest of the day too.
3:17 am
sprite
am glad. You really don't need snappiness atm. If ever.
3:19 am
grannyrose
btw, you didn't answer. how was your night? and how did you get through yesterday?
3:20 am
sprite
oh sorry, darling, must have missed that post. My night was good. I had the strangest thing yesterday, started shaking and couldn't stop. Finally went for a nap, shaking was done after that, but all muscles sore and tense. Took a valium before bed. Now all is ok.
3:21 am
grannyrose
ahhhh, FM strikes again? when are you going to get it formally diagnosed.
3:21 am
sprite
is that FM? Never had this before. It was highly unpleasant, I must say.
3:23 am
grannyrose
when i came off the sinequin waaay back, that was how i was. couldn't sign my name, couldn't walk.
3:23 am
sprite
oh it wasn't that bad for me. It was a tiny shake. But continiously.
3:24 am
grannyrose
the muscles go into overdrive. everything shakes. sounds like you can sleep it off, which is what happens early in the progress of the disorder.
3:25 am
grannyrose
i have a constant hand-tremor which is why i cannot put an IV cannula in a patient. wouldn't put anyone through that.
3:26 am
sprite
yeah only my neck and shoulders and arms were crazy painful afterwards. Oh, and so weird. I drove to and from singing lesson. At 2 crossroads I couldn't, for just a few secs, remember where I was and where to go. That was a bit scary.
3:28 am
grannyrose
yup, brain fog...another symptom. you really need to find a doc who knows what FM is all about.
3:28 am
sprite
ok darling. I didn't know that was part of it as well. Just thought age was catching up with me.
3:30 am
grannyrose
you poor love. FM is so debilliating.
3:31 am
sprite
I really really don't need another chronic disease, lol. Sounds familiar? Ah well, no use in lamenting, I guess. Will talk with my gp and see what gives.
3:31 am
grannyrose
was going to say something here but not sure you want it public. will put it in an email.
3:31 am
sprite
ok sweetie, that is fine.
3:43 am
sprite
hello gran. It rhymes with what the executioner lies around your neck, no***
3:45 am
grannyrose
* giggle * what sprite said gran
3:48 am
grannyrose
sprite, just saw your post at 3:31. darling, it is not another chronic disease. it is defining what is already going on in your body.
3:52 am
sprite
you are right, of course. Guess I am still in the process of getting my head up out of the sand, grin.
3:52 am
grannyrose
timer just went off. dinner ready. bbl.

4:09 am

thanks m'dear :) Am reading about fm and all... I guess I really have to ask my gp about it. Too much dingdingding going on here.
4:10 am
grannyrose
just remember psstd overlaps fm...
4:11 am
grannyrose
ugh, ptssd..
4:11 am
sprite
yeah, just was reading about that. Lots of overlap symptoms. I promise I will ask. Must make appointment.
4:13 am
sprite
how's your body holding up after the box cleanup?
4:14 am
grannyrose
not too bad. just taking it quietly. no excessive aches and pains.
4:15 am
sprite
well done *hugs*
4:16 am
grannyrose
tomorrow is laundry day...* sigh *
4:16 am
sprite
spread it out...
4:16 am
grannyrose

4:18 am
grannyrose

4:18 am

4:18 am
grannyrose
* blinks innocently * what sprite??
4:19 am
sprite
*grin* Naughty rose. Well, I'd say, both. Both legs, yes. And the laundry. And make sure mr Snappy is helping.
4:19 am
grannyrose
surely you know by now you simply cannot count on what i am going to say?
4:20 am
sprite

4:21 am
sprite

It is now time for crossy's tidbit of the day. Today I would like to share an interesting website with you. The site is E.D.I.S It is a global emergency disaster information service. At a single glance you can view, and get details on any current disaster happening anywhere on the globe as well as get more detailed information with a click of your mouse. http://tinyurl.com/qbfj98u

For example if you look at the map right now, you will see that California is experiencing an earthquake as we speak
6:29 am

as is Alaska
6:32 am

You need to sign up for Stumble Upon?
6:32 am
crosshair
mouse over the icon on the map for a quick icon identification, or righ click for detailed info
6:33 am
crosshair
yes, it is a interesting and safe program I have used for many years, car
6:33 am
crosshair
But I am sure you can find it with google outside of stumble upon
6:33 am
car.eeyore
I just went to the site itself and bookmarked it. TY!
6:34 am

I see there is a flu epidemic in China:(
6:36 am

Are you clicking on those areas to find that info?

after you left click you can choose how much info you want
6:38 am

Outbreak of the bird flu virus in Hungary I see..
6:40 am
crosshair
The red flashing circles mean an earhquake is still ongoing. as you can see the one in Alaska has stopped for now
6:46 am
crosshair
The blue flashing squares are stronger earthquakes. For example, Argentina has just had a 4.7 quake.
6:48 am

I would also avoid any vacations to Madagascar as they have a plague outbreak atm:)

6:58 am

Woke up to find "someone" had unlocked the porch door again, and OF COURSE the dog let himself out through it, and thus the French doors were left wide open most of the night, meaning I used a whole lotta oil to heat the neighborhood. IM. SO. DONE.'
6:59 am
car.eeyore
You need to go buy a new lock for that door.
7:00 am
Trifioso
that's not the issue. The issue is the handles, which the dog can jump up on and let himself out, if it's unlocked.
7:00 am
car.eeyore
Time for a new handle then.
7:02 am
Trifioso
I say I chuck it all in and move to Marigot.
7:03 am
car.eeyore
There is that....
7:03 am
crosshair
Yes, new handle v.s another 200 dollars of furnace oil next time it happens:(... lol or toss it all, leave them to their own devices and move somewhere tropical:)
7:04 am

7:04 am

4:11 pm
penquis

4:11 pm
bichon
I'm in CA and just started
4:13 pm
mo
I think I must go before I confuse anyone else. I am usually meek and mild.
4:15 pm
penquis
you're fine, mo.....see you later!
4:15 pm
penquis
bichon....your dogs are so seasonal!
4:16 pm
mo
bye penquis .. no hard feelings I hope.

those aren't my docts, but models
4:18 pm
penquis
they are cute!
4:19 pm
penquis
bye, mo....no problem at all!
4:19 pm
bichon
but mine look like that. They won't wear hats though
4:22 pm
penquis
cute...you have two?
4:25 pm
bichon
Yup, and I am fostering two little girls
4:26 pm
penquis
oh nice....my friend has taken in several rescued greyhounds over the last several years....
4:28 pm
bichon
Their coats were so overgrown and dirty that after shaving, they each lost 2 lobs
4:30 pm
bichon
Some people just can't take care of their dogs
4:34 pm
penquis
yes....i don't have any pets....don't like to be tied down....and don't want the expense....but i like animals...
4:35 pm
bichon
Those are good reasons not to have one. And some people, like this owner, kept them way too long.
4:37 pm
penquis
yes, i can see that...
4:38 pm
penquis
will you be keeping them a specific amount of time?
4:39 pm
bichon
They need their teeth clean and then a foster home has to be found. They will be turning 10 soon. But, they're nice and well-behaved dogs
4:40 pm

Nef
Good Evening. I'm just starting here
8:51 pm
Nef
It does appear tough; maybe I shouldn't start if it took you all day JBsAnno
8:52 pm
JBsAnno
Hi, Nef! One earlier chogger had not kind words to say about today
8:52 pm
Nef
Hi pen. What say you? Tough grid?
8:52 pm
JBsAnno
's puzzle, hope it goes better for you! Sorry for multiple entries, my apostrophe key is so close to my enter key on this mini keyboard. #firstworldproblems.
8:53 pm
JBsAnno
Hi, penquis!
8:54 pm
penquis
it's tough.....but 60 percent are four letter words...
8:58 pm
JBsAnno
I came and went several times, Nef, my last try I had about 15 words to go. Those ar 6 & 7s, though! Made me think they were Harry Potter words.
9:00 pm
Nef
Dang, you 2, you're not very encouraging!
9:01 pm
JBsAnno
You can do it, Nef!! Go, go!
9:03 pm
Nef
that's better! ;-)

10:01 pm
penquis
Still here, nef?....
10:26 pm
Nef
I gave up, penq. I found 3 more words in 20 minutes (with chat off the screen so I wasn't distracted) and finally decided I wasn't sharp enough for this grid.
10:31 pm
Nef
Good Night, & Happy Babbling ALl!
