good morning ruby, how are you doing today? Did Burt stay at the daycare yesterday?
4:03 am

he did not - i saw ruby talking about it yesterday
4:03 am

Hi and hugs to both of you
4:03 am

*hugs Liz* How was your day?
4:03 am
rubyfoo
no, he lasted even less time than before and they don't want him back.
4:04 am
Lizlin
Good thanks - usual stuff.
4:04 am
rubyfoo
just seen the lady from social services and am in the process of making "real" arrangements for him
4:04 am
hurshy
anyone got the o?
4:04 am
Lizlin
That's harsh Ruby. They must know it'll take time for him to get used to it.
4:05 am
sprite
very good, ruby. That is for the best, I really believe so. *hugs*
4:05 am
rubyfoo
I don't know yet what they can provide, but if I have to go into the hospital, they can make arrangemeents for him
4:05 am
Lizlin
Os 6/18. Mrp clued it not long ago.
4:06 am
Lizlin
A hard decision for you, Ruby, I'd think, but a good one.
4:06 am
rubyfoo
Hiss doctor is coming today and I'll give him forms to fill out and I am seeing my oncologist on Thursday with forms for her to fill out, just in case
4:06 am
sprite
he has to be institutionalised, not just when you have to go into the hospital.
4:06 am
Lizlin
Time for dinner - enjoy your days and hugs.
4:06 am
rubyfoo
I feel sorry for him because I'm his whole focus, but when he "sundowns", life becomes untenable for me
4:07 am
sprite
enjoy your dinner, Liz
4:07 am
Lizlin
I agree, Sprie.
4:07 am
hurshy
how about the 8?
4:08 am
Lizlin
Or 8/45 - sort of compound in structure.
4:08 am
rubyfoo
how about it? LOL
4:08 am
Lizlin
Must go now.
4:08 am
sprite
it is a sad thing, ruby, it is true. But we are talking survival now, not convenience. You need to focus your energy and zest for life on yourself. Badly.

4:24 am
sprite
I thought one needed marble for bread
4:25 am
hurshy
?? you can make bread on any counter
4:25 am
rubyfoo
granite works just as well (and it's patterned, so it doesn't stain visibly)
4:25 am

and it is a lot cheaper too, lol.
Hursh: for the cold, when kneading

“[Being with] someone who reads is like [sharing life with] a thousand souls. It’s gaining the experience they’ve gained from everything they’ve ever read and the wisdom that comes with those experiences…†–Lauren Martin
3:48 pm
Judi
Guh. This grid is endless.
3:49 pm
Uneaixoise

3:50 pm
Anniebrook
I anyone having trouble opening Morewords, em7/44 is making me crazy
3:50 pm
Judi
I can't get that last em7 either.
3:50 pm
MollyL
It's an adverb form of the other em7s
3:51 pm
MollyL
Of course, like many words in Enable, I think it would get you a big red X on an English paper.
3:52 pm
Judi
Ah. Ty, Molly.
3:52 pm
Anniebrook
then its a word that doesnt make sense
3:52 pm
Judi
Or, for extra credit, use that word in a sentence. *starts clock*
3:53 pm
MollyL
She felt em5, so she em7 walked to the park to weep.
3:53 pm

Something or someone unexpected, I guess

5:16 pm
cybernan
hi pen -- thought the pb had been torn down
5:16 pm
cybernan
nope just a tired me break time
5:27 pm
MollyL
It seems to have become politically incorrect to send someone to the PB. Makes you a "meanie" or something.
5:27 pm
penquis
send me anytime... ;o)
5:30 pm
penquis
although i think some of the reasons to send someone are silly....
5:30 pm
penquis
like sending me for saying that i hate this grid... ;o)
5:31 pm
KatieMcG
We used to have great PBs getting sent there was a real honour
5:32 pm
Anniebrook
champagne, strawberries, macadamia nuts, etc
5:33 pm
KatieMcG
Gin and tonic 😄 Chocolate
5:34 pm
MollyL
Used to be the only PB offense was posting a word, or part of a word, in the chat box.
5:34 pm
penquis
i just don't agree with that if it's a common word used in a conversation...
5:34 pm
Anniebrook
That is the only offense
5:36 pm
KatieMcG
Yep. I usually get sent on a day with a big grid when I have no idea it is in there as I have not got that far
5:36 pm
MollyL
But it used to be that people wanted to find words on their own. That has changed, hence maybe the whole idea of the PB is antique.
5:36 pm
penquis
to me, that's just as bad....giving away a word by pointing it out...
5:37 pm
cybernan
no more animal alerts for pen :D
5:37 pm
cybernan
ma 7 please?
5:38 pm

An Australian song, Waltzing Ma7
5:39 pm
Anniebrook
I agree with penquis...clues are sometimes posted that were not asked for
5:39 pm

I agree with that too, but every time that subject comes up it gets bashed.

11:29 pm
cosdem
ah its a chronological show then.. i like these best
11:33 pm
harpjane
It moves a bit slowly for the current generation. We didn't have communal adhd back then
11:34 pm
cosdem
Oh thats sad. I don't mind slow episodes but sadly I prefer to binge watch :) So I wait for the season to come out on dvd instead of tv. No time for tv when I work anyway. Work evenings.
11:34 pm
harpjane
it's quirky enough to keep me interested
11:35 pm
harpjane
done! thanks for the company.
11:36 pm

11:43 pm
jwr
http://tinyurl.com/oun6twh well, here, then
11:43 pm
cosdem
All I care about is if Katey Sagal will be back and it seems she will be in a small role.. a few episodes.. good enough. I need my Peggy :P
11:45 pm
Uneaixoise
wierd -- 0 left to find but no fireworks -- oh well LOL
11:45 pm
cosdem
That happened to me too Une. Had to refresh and re-enter last word
11:46 pm
AnnaK
i like katy sagal in that biker tv show, sons of anarchy
11:46 pm
AnnaK
She was very good and a different character.
11:46 pm
AnnaK
i keep getting really close on here but not quite finishing.
11:46 pm
cosdem
shes in a new series now which is why she cant do the spin off full time
11:46 pm
cosdem
such a talented actress.
11:46 pm
AnnaK
I'll hope the next one has fewer words.
11:47 pm
AnnaK
what's' the new series?
11:47 pm
cosdem
let me find the name
11:48 pm
cosdem
"Bastard Executioner" on TNT
11:48 pm
AnnaK
hnm, haven't heard of it. Will have to look it up.
11:49 pm
cosdem
her husband is the producer lol must be nice
11:49 pm
AnnaK
oh yes that helps
11:50 pm
AnnaK
Married With children kind of depressed me. A lot of those actors though really got careers after that.
11:51 pm
cosdem
the only one who didnt was the boy which is why hes the one leading this spin off :) the neighbor. amanda bearse si now a well respected tv director
11:51 pm
jwr
Betcha they don't bring the Cosby show back.
11:51 pm
cosdem
My parents were Al and Peggy. That was my life. We had food though but yeah...
11:52 pm
cosdem
lol if they do it'll be The Claire Show" and Cliff's dead.
11:52 pm
jwr
My favorite character was the dog - he had all the really good lines
11:53 pm
cosdem
hah i saw the same dog on a golden girls episode yesterday. now thats a show i wish would come back but alas it is not to be
11:54 pm
jwr
Really? The same one?
11:54 pm
cosdem
yes he was much younger though
11:54 pm
jwr
No, you're right about Golden Girls. They were four of one of a kind.
11:54 pm
cosdem
I think a year before mwc premiered
11:55 pm
jwr
What a great actor he was. I forgot his name.
11:56 pm
cosdem
Oh that reminds me. thats another show coming back. Uncle Buck on ABC this winter.
11:57 pm
jwr
Thanks, cos. I've got memory holes about the darndest things. ... not an Uncle Buck fan, I'm afraid -- I think that's a guy thing: like liking the Three Stooges
11:58 pm
cosdem
not watching it myself. no john candy :)
11:59 pm
jwr
I wonder how the current generation or rather people who never saw the originals will take to the remakes.
11:59 pm
cosdem
the 90s babies having kids now.. so they want their kids to have the same i guess
12:00 am
jwr
It's a different world, though. I think the shows then were too tame for this generation
