1:47 am
Lizlin
Weird - a day of throwing out loads of stuff and rearranging. Still not finished! How was your night?
1:48 am
sprite
sounds like you got a lot done though. My night was fine, slept like a log.
1:48 am
Lizlin
Also found my first 60 words using my phone, as we were out and waiting for someone. Total admiration for anyone who plays regularly on the phone.
1:49 am
Lizlin
That's really good. Hopefully, even though yesterday was a working day, your family did a better job of looking after you!
1:49 am
sprite
ugh yes. Not my idea of fun babbling. I need my keyboard.
1:49 am
Lizlin

1:49 am
sprite

1:51 am
Lizlin
That's a good thing. Is the pain easing?
1:53 am
sprite
yeah, a little better every day. The left side, where they went through the muscle tissue, is still very sore. The other side not so much.
1:53 am
Lizlin
it's amazing really how quickly it's all happened - or it seems quick to me, from when you first spoke about it.
1:55 am
sprite
preparational part is about 6 months. Then the waiting list, but I was very lucky there, almost no waiting.

10:40 am
rururocks
that was the dumbest song when I was growing up
10:41 am
cybernan
there were a lot of stupid songs
10:43 am
Judi
I guess that song would have to go to the island along with the washed up rock stars.
10:43 am
cybernan
I think the only reason it caught on was because it has a catchy tune
10:44 am
Judi
Peter Noone, Herman's Hermits.... by the way.
10:44 am
Buttonman
Morning all, could someone please clue me the first se 6/21 please

10:51 am

I have to throw a few yellow flags here. Neither "rehome(s)" nor "rehone(s)" is allowed. *STOMPS FOOT*
10:51 am
Judi
*chuckling at Ruru's icon* I too shall be "toasted" some day.
10:54 am
Judi
Today's political hypocrisy: Donald Trump recently claimed he would no longer eat Oreos because they are now made in Mexico. Fair enough. However, his Donald Trump line of menswear is made in Mexico. *throws another yelllow flag*
10:55 am
cybernan
ga 6, please?
10:56 am
Judi
I have the plural of the ga5.
10:58 am
cybernan
I wish I could figure out why people and the media pay so much attention to TRump --- isn't it obvious that he is an attention seeking idiot? If everone ignored him, maybe he would slink away
10:58 am
flosey
have never seen the word, you might say cheesecloth is sort of ga6 odd spelling
10:59 am
bichon
ra 6/7 combo pls
10:59 am
cybernan
can't think of a decription of cheesecloth that fits, flosey
11:00 am
rururocks
I think everyone is shocked that he's doing ok in the polls nan..
11:00 am
Judi
Just like the gr7 x.
11:00 am
flosey
takes a bit of imagination, sorry nan - think of another word for - a small patch of cheesecloth is used to cover a sore
11:00 am
Judi
x 2 rather.
11:01 am
Judi
Trump is interesting politcal theater. Other than that, I don't think he'd be a good president. He'd be an awesome financial or trade advisor. Otherwise, no.
11:02 am
Judi
I do like his opinion that we should drop China like a hot potato.
11:02 am
rururocks
I'm trying to imagine the white house remodeled as the trump Taj Mahal...
11:03 am
rururocks
I agree with restricting trade with China too
11:03 am
Judi
LOL, Ru. Think of the Christmas display!
11:04 am
Judi
And I don't think we should conquer the middle east and take all their oil. They can keep their oil. We have plenty of our own. We just need to dope slap the environmentalists and go get it out of the ground.
11:04 am
rururocks
well.. if Trump wins the presidency.. it won't be the first time he's kicked a black family out of their house.
11:05 am
Judi
*politically incorrect guffaw*
11:06 am
Judi
Actually, in all fairness, I believe former wife, Ivanka decorated the Trump Taj. Hubby and I walked through it once. Gawdy does not begin to describe.
11:06 am
rururocks
well.. it's closed now isn't it?
11:06 am
Judi
Nan - did you figure out the ga6/36? I don't have it either.
11:07 am
Judi
The one in Atlantic City is closed. I think there is one in NYC too.
11:09 am
Judi
Actually stayed at the Taj in AC once. I'm not a casino fan, so I was not impressed. The rooms were nice. Now it's an empty shell.
11:10 am
Judi
AC in general is pretty scuzzy now.
11:11 am
rururocks
I'm not a gambler.. so gambling areas are never a destination for me
11:11 am
rururocks
I have an aversion to the whole scene at casinos and such
11:11 am
Judi
Ditto. If I want to lose money, I'll just flush it down the loo.
11:12 am
flosey
Judi - (and nan) your description of Ivanka's decorations is the beginning of the ga word think squares used to cover a sore - alternate y ending
11:12 am

11:43 am
Trifioso
I walked right into a fight between two babblers, and I had no clue they were fighting, and it all got way worse, and now one of them isn't babbling at all, and no matter HOW many times I apologize, it doesn't help. I seriously didn't even know they were arguing....I am just so clueless
11:44 am
periwinkle
I missed all of that
11:44 am
rubyfoo
better to just ignore it, Trif, it doesn't sound like it's your problem
11:44 am
TraderKate
I missed that.... don't worry about it though. they will return and all will be right in babbleland
11:45 am

12:20 pm
MollyL
You know, just so things don't get take too out of context here, I think "fighting" is overstating what happened. Ru commented on the Wildcat incident and said "we really don't know what happened" and that got blown way out of proportion. It's all in the chat archives if anyone doubts what I'm saying here.
12:21 pm
therealblah
ah finally got it, thx flosey

12:24 pm
MollyL
Trif was not referring to something that happened today. This happened days ago. And she has nothing to apologize for. Asking someone what their profile is about is an innocent question.
12:25 pm
flosey
ah, agree Molly, did it get misconstrued?
12:26 pm
TraderKate
well, i truly hope it all blows over soon...i hate it when there is discord here.
12:26 pm

I thought it was blowing over and then it all got brought up again.

never wanted to learn as a child....scared of the sewing machine...
5:32 pm

Sewing, knitting, anything to do with making garments was never my strong suit (pun pun)
I can hold my own in the kitchen but I leave the sewing and knitting up to those who have a talent for it
5:45 pm
penquis
i like knitting but i am not an expert by any means...i used to do a lot of needlepoint and some crochet....never liked sewing or embroidering.....
5:45 pm

ironically, my mother was a great seamstress...once worked for a tailor....

Not so ironic. We do not always take up what our parents do well.
5:48 pm

true....my father was a great gardener and i did a lot of that as a kid, but i have always disliked it....all that bending....yuck....

hi harp! I think it's just you me. Are you getting smoke from the fires over your way?
7:04 pm
Uneaixoise
hey harp and ch1212 :-)
7:07 pm
harpjane
hi ch1212, it's been bad to horrible, with occasional improvement to "almost marginal". Today we had specks of ashes on our cars, like frost.
7:08 pm
Uneaixoise
scary times, eh?
7:08 pm
harpjane
Two weeks ago we had a trip planned, so we got out of it. Last weekend there was no where to go, as the entire area was socked in. But we don't have any serious fires in our area so I don't want to complain too loudly!
7:08 pm
ch1212
On the western side of Washington, we've had a few days of really bad, from the fires here. I have friends between Orofino and Kamiah, and they have to drive through fire lines to get to work.
7:09 pm
harpjane
Central Washington and northern Idaho are really chaotic.
7:09 pm
Uneaixoise
good lord . . . . sounds really terrifying
7:10 pm
ch1212
Agreed. The largest one here has a fire line 1,000 miles long. I can't even imagine that. We came home from a trip this weekend, and before takeoff, the pilot announced there were six firefighters on board heading to Washington. We all applauded.
7:10 pm
harpjane
Une, our part in it this year, is not terrifying at all. We're just breathing bad air, looking at smoky skies, and wishing it would rain. We are spared the worst of it this year--no fires nearby.
7:11 pm
Uneaixoise
driving "through a fire line" . . . good grief
7:12 pm

They have a guide car to lead them through. I pray for them, and for everyone affected.
7:15 pm

We lived through that in 2000. A veteran told us it was as bad a living through the bombings in London during the War. We were completely surrounded by fires. Sometimes all the roads were closed.

ch1212
So many people have been evacuated in Washington, and there are only so many hotels in the rural area where the fires are. I read that an 80 year old man with nowhere to go has been put up by the local Home Depot. They have a bed made of pallets for him to sleep on.
7:19 pm
harpjane
Around here, most of the evacuees didn't want to go too far, so they loaded up their campers or tents, and went to city parks, or neighbors who lived in towns. The Red Cross even noted that for the number of people evacuated, there were remarkably few staying in the shelters.
7:19 pm
harpjane
Moving animals is a whole 'nother issue!
7:21 pm
ch1212
Oh, I know -- my heart aches for the animals, particularly the wildlife. The farm animals and pets are being put up by locals, from what I understand.

We're in the Lake Stevens area, so about 25 NE of Seattle. At the base of the Cascade Mountain Range, on the other side where the fires are.
7:24 pm
harpjane
ah, I bet you're getting some of the traffic, though
7:25 pm
ch1212
Actually, we live in Granite Falls. Beautiful area. Our community has videos on YouTube with photos that tons of us contributed to. The mural Chris Pratt painted in high school is in there too.
Yes, about 10 miles from us is I-5, part of the greater Seattle corridor, with tons of traffic.
7:26 pm

the truth is, no one knows, and really, I should have not have been gossiping.
9:27 pm

You weren't
9:29 pm

I had no business asking about things that did not concern me, and in the process I hurt someone's feelings. and I feel awful about that. I learned a hard lesson.
9:30 pm

You simply asked a question. There is nothing wrong in that
9:31 pm

I really don't wish to discuss this anymore, if you don't mind.
9:31 pm

How did it hurt someone's feelings?

Sure. Never mind. The whole thing is ridiculous.

Again, I know what happened and I made it very clear.
Wildcat aka Lisa Juarez stole money from babblers. I know this for a fact. No one else was involved... I know where she is, I know all about her... Homeland Security are amazing friends here.
She isn't worth anything to anyone anymore!
If I see her on here, I will take her to pieces as it is my fight, no one elses. She is lucky I didn't persue her any further, and we all learned a lesson from it.
Peace to babbleland :)
