12:28 am

Bugsaw

12:28 am

Bugsaw

oops

12:28 am

rururocks

*makes snacks for Bugs*

12:29 am

Bugsaw

I was going to say WHAT??!! when ruru finished so fast but that would have been rude.

12:29 am

sammysmom

already had that one bug, may i have another?

12:29 am

Bugsaw

I would never be rude

12:29 am

sammysmom

being rude can be fun

12:29 am

rururocks

*nods head*

12:29 am

Bugsaw

I wish I could help sammysmon, but I am too far behind everyone in the pack

12:30 am

rururocks

you can't get rude without RU

12:30 am

rururocks

:D

12:30 am

sammysmom

hee hee

12:30 am

Lizlin

:)

12:31 am

Bugsaw

ruru knows that I would never be rude. Even when we became friends the day I couldn't get a word to enter and he was laughing at me and I kept telling him to shut up. I hope he would know it was all in fun and he did.

12:31 am

Bugsaw

sadly, ru, you do bring out a side of many of us that our families only ever see. You do make Babble fun

12:32 am

rururocks

I can take a good joke.. I figure if you dish it out you have to be able to take it

12:32 am

rururocks

thanks bugs.. I try to make people laugh here

12:32 am

Lizlin

That's what I love about babble too - usually

12:32 am

rururocks

I can't be rude and feed you all weekend :D

12:33 am

Lizlin

Rude food?

12:33 am

sammysmom

i took a bitch test on facebook yesterday AND FAILED!!..boy, were they wrong

12:33 am

rururocks

Ru Food :D

12:33 am

Lizlin

:)

12:33 am

rururocks

My mom would score the highest on that one sammy

12:34 am

rururocks

no one would even have half a chance

12:34 am

Bugsaw

I wasn't being mean that day. I was just so frustrated that it wouldn't accept my last word which had something to do with vision. You kept telling me to keep my eye on the grid and that sort of thing. I knew what the word was, it was just not going to accept it that night

12:34 am

rururocks

oh .. yeah.. I remember that

12:34 am

rururocks

were you slightly misspelling it ?

12:35 am

sammysmom

even my three daughters made the grade and who do you think taught them?????????

12:35 am

rururocks

otitis or something like that?

12:35 am

Bugsaw

A bitch test? who in their right mind would take a bitch test? we would all fail

12:35 am

rururocks

well.. Sammy.. i'm guessing you

12:35 am

dizgrannie

FWs

12:35 am

Bugsaw

No, I knew the word but until I refreshed there was some sort of glitch.

12:35 am

rururocks

I know walter doesn't think you're a bitch :D

12:36 am

rururocks

yay diz.. well done

12:36 am

Bugsaw

well done grannie and ruru too!

12:36 am

Lizlin

Congrats, Diz

12:36 am

sammysmom

even my three year old grand daughter is progressing nicely in her training

12:36 am

rururocks

LOL

12:36 am

sammysmom

great grand daughter that is

12:37 am

rururocks

*note to self.. avoid family gatherings at Sammy's house*

12:37 am

Lizlin

It's great that you're bringing them up so well, to take after you, s'mom

12:37 am

sammysmom

her mother is a champ

12:37 am

Bugsaw

I think toilet training gets bitchiness off to a good start. No! is their favourite word.

12:37 am

sammysmom

as far as my girls are concerned, my job is done

12:38 am

rururocks

oh.. boy... I'm staying outta this one

12:38 am

sammysmom

walter doesnt say anythiong out loud ru, bur sometimes the " yes, mam" sounds strained

12:39 am

cybernan

12:39 am

sammysmom

nite nan

12:39 am

sammysmom

rest well

12:39 am

Bugsaw

I wish I could people to say Yes, mam. . . It would so fit with the She Who Must Be Obeyed moniker that everyone ignores.

12:40 am

Bugsaw

nite nan.

12:40 am

rururocks

I'm too rebellious to be a yes ma'am kind of guy

12:40 am

sammysmom

12:41 am

Lizlin

Sleep well nan

12:42 am

good morning all

3:53 am

grannyrose

{{hugs}} and good morning sprite from my ceiling.

3:54 am

sprite

hi sweetie :) *hugs* right back at you. Did you have the infusion today?

3:54 am

grannyrose

yesterday. if i was any more relaxed i would be a puddle.... lolll

3:55 am

sprite

am so glad. You could use a bit of relaxation. How is Don holding up?

3:56 am

grannyrose

yes he is. fang however is not. when she phoned me earlier her speech was slurred and she was quite giggly.

3:57 am

sprite

well we all know fang. She would only phone you if she needed something, anyway. Let her drink, pfff.

3:58 am

sprite

am glad Don is handling it ok. Not an easy thing to lose your sister :(

3:58 am

grannyrose

i am to be awarded the victoria cross for listening to her for over 25 minutes.

3:59 am

sprite

nobel prize for peace, no doubt

4:00 am

grannyrose

it just doesn't stop here. have had a call from youngest son. we had some gale force winds here overnight.

4:00 am

sprite

and your infusion was way way overdue. Did you have a good night's sleep?

4:01 am

sprite

oh, what did youngest have to nag about?

4:01 am

grannyrose

the wind blew down a tree on the family home at 5am and he has just found out that they have no power. * sigh *

4:01 am

sprite

ohhhh a literally wind. Sow sowwy, lol

4:02 am

grannyrose

the power company repaired the line in the street but said the reconnection to the house was a private matter. fortunately my insurance company is stepping up to the mark.

4:02 am

sprite

well, he will have to put on his big boy's pants and have the power fixed. And move the tree. Calling his mummy isn't gonna cut it.

4:02 am

grannyrose

they are sending out an electrician qualified to repair the junction box and reconnect to the pole.

4:03 am

grannyrose

well mummy is the one with the insurance on the house.

4:03 am

grannyrose

and yes, i slept like a log. i think i only woke the once to roll over.

4:04 am

sprite

just asking, my dear friend... what on earth is he calling his mummy for? HE should be the one to call the insurance and arrange for it all to be fixed. He should leave his mother in peace... who was having another infusion and last but not least has to deal with another death in the family.

4:06 am

grannyrose

*giggle* he is still such an innocent in some ways. and still growing up.

4:07 am

sprite

for goodness sake! TIM is still growing up. But your youngest is a LITTLE bit older!

4:08 am

grannyrose

really lollll. yes i know....they like to think they know it all but still have to ask mum sometimes for a helping hand.

4:09 am

grannyrose

i have informed the insurer to contact him from now on and let him handle it.

4:09 am

sprite

lol. Boys will be boys.... and yayyy for you. Well done, lady. I am so happy to hear how relaxed you are now. It's been an ordeal, hasn't it.

4:10 am

grannyrose

i have made it. i cannot believe how well i feel.

4:10 am

sprite

*hugs rose*

4:11 am

grannyrose

* hugs sprite * just because she is herself..... and i wanna to hug her.

4:12 am

sprite

*grin* Hmmmm nice!

4:14 am

sprite

I cannot see 'snew' in the grid without trying it. It should have been the past tense of to snow. Just sayin'.

4:20 am

grannyrose

i so wanted skoff with a k instead of a c....

4:20 am

sprite

ah yes. I am with ya.

4:21 am

sprite

that whole sk is a bit disappointing

4:29 am

grannyrose

how did you go with last nights grid?

4:30 am

sprite

pretty well. Some oddball words at the end, for which I needed a2z. But otherwise a good one.

4:31 am

sprite

and this one is easy as pie

4:31 am

grannyrose

i had a ball. sat up and did it when the immediate effects of the ketamine wore off.

4:31 am

sprite

lolllll rose on high!

4:41 am

sprite

4:44 am

grannyrose

WTG SPRITE!!!!!

4:45 am

sprite

5:03 pm

penquis

same here, though i would bring in my lawn furniture and my one hanging plant if there was a tornado watch here....the worst thing we usually get here is an occasional big thunderstorm...

5:29 pm

I only bring things in when there is a hurricane warning. We are flooding here, big rains. Time for Stevie Ray Vaughn's Texas Flood.

5:37 pm

i only do if 50 + mph winds are predicted...not very often, to be sure....
