4:13 am

sprite

good teamwork there, zooz

4:13 am

zoozzoom

She did, sprite. she had two birthday cakes.

4:14 am

sprite

good for her!

4:14 am

grannyrose

good for you sprite.

4:14 am

zoozzoom

Oh and a bit embarrassed as I said she was going to be 78..in fact she is now 76.

4:15 am

sprite

lollll zooz, don't worry about that. At her age, every year extra is one worn in pride

4:15 am

grannyrose

typical son, always adding a few years to poor old mum.

4:16 am

zoozzoom

True. she does not know I thought that is was what i said here the other day..lol

4:16 am

zoozzoom

I do that with everyone to be fair, Rose lol

4:16 am

sprite

lol

4:17 am

zoozzoom

I saw on the news, Rose , That there was a massive thunderstorm in Australia. Not sure where abouts but it looked like it was in the south somewhere. Did it effect you?

4:18 am

grannyrose

sort of zooz. we were out driving in it. it was like driving through a waterfall. and there was a tornado for heavens sake.

4:19 am

zoozzoom

Glad no damage was done then. Not nice. We have lots of tornandos here every year. Albeit they are very small and most of the time you do not realise one has passed by lol

4:19 am

grannyrose

it was actually on the other side of melbourne...the tornado i mean. but the skies opened all over my city.

4:20 am

zoozzoom

Queen Rose of Melbourne City!!

4:21 am

sprite

She of the Tornados

4:21 am

grannyrose

*giggle* the ladies at their special day at the race track got soaked.

4:23 am

zoozzoom

I am wanting to do my washing and hang it dry outside but the weather here is that everytime I want to do that it rains :-(

4:23 am

grannyrose

one lady stripped down to her bra and knickers. it was hilarious. all that flesh going south.

4:23 am

zoozzoom

I have about three days of clothes left!

4:24 am

grannyrose

you could do what that lady did. would anyone notice??

4:24 am

zoozzoom

Really? is that normal?

4:25 am

zoozzoom

LOL not with my body, Rose!

4:25 am

grannyrose

she probably had been drinking since mid-morning.

4:26 am

zoozzoom

although if I turned sideways they probably would not be able to see me lol

4:27 am

zoozzoom

Oh I thought you meant she was an elderly lady.

4:27 am

grannyrose

well younger than me...

4:27 am

zoozzoom

But you are still wet behind the ears, Rose :-)

4:28 am

grannyrose

*grabs towel* just what do you mean by that young fella??

4:28 am

zoozzoom

lol

4:29 am

zoozzoom

where did Sprite go..Squirrel?

4:29 am

sprite

lol

4:30 am

grannyrose

yeah, i lent her mine.

4:30 am

sprite

nope, just am here

4:32 am

zoozzoom

My dryer broke recently and am determind not to buy another on as the electricity bill so far is way too high. Wondering how the mothers of yesterday coped with wet days when the washing needs to be dried.

4:32 am

sprite

*waves at room*

4:32 am

zoozzoom

*Waves back*

4:32 am

sprite

I don't have a dryer, zooz. And I have two teenager kids, a husband with working clothes, hobby clothes and normal clothes...

4:33 am

grannyrose

we used to hang the wash on a clothes-horse and pulleyed it up to the ceiling where the heat was trapped.

4:33 am

sprite

I hang the laundry indoors, one load a day.

4:33 am

zoozzoom

So how do you dry the clothes on a wet week?

4:33 am

zoozzoom

Would that not make the home damp or smell of musty mould?

4:33 am

sprite

I have a rack over the door of the bathroom. Only place where there is room

4:34 am

sprite

zooz: always ventilate.

4:34 am

grannyrose

no it doesn't zooz the wash dries quite quickly with the ambient air.

4:35 am

grannyrose

* breath in, breath out, breath in, breath out* i am ventilating....loll

4:35 am

zoozzoom

I don't know..throw away the dryer and the man falls to pieces.

4:35 am

sprite

that is more like hyperventilating... don't overdo it, lol

4:35 am

zoozzoom

LOL very good Rose!

4:37 am

sprite

you need a drying rack, zooz. Easy as pie. And clothes pegs. Or what are they called. Pin up the clothes, make sure there is a bit of room in between each, so they can dry out quickly. Rinse and repeat.

4:38 am

zoozzoom

I have had a pile of books by my bedside and have now got down to the last six books.The last six books are by an author called Marcel Proust. I opened up the first page and good grief! the writing is so tiny i could hardly see the letters! Was so used to the other book text being larger lol

4:38 am

zoozzoom

Clothes peg is the word we use here, Sprite.

4:38 am

sprite

lol Proust is serious stuff :)

4:38 am

grannyrose

oh dear zooz. don't you have glasses?

4:38 am

sprite

ah good :) Score one for the dutchie.

4:39 am

zoozzoom

Well I did not think i needed glasses, Rose. but to be honest I was really struggling to see the text. Not sure if it is going to be a comfortable read tonight.

4:40 am

zoozzoom

Oh good, Sprite. I normally read a bit of fantasy novels but also like to mix it up a bit with something more adult lol

4:40 am

sprite

proust is never comforting, I think. But interesting.

4:41 am

zoozzoom

Hope I like them then as there is six in this volume.

4:41 am

zoozzoom

Each book is about 500 pages.

4:42 am

sprite

yeah he is known for his monumental essays, lol. But I think you will like him.

4:42 am

zoozzoom

First one is called The way by the swann's

4:43 am

zoozzoom

Thanks Sprite. Nice to know someone who knows his work.

4:44 am

zoozzoom

Phantom : Enation.

4:44 am

sprite

Swann's way is how I know that one. Must be the same.

4:45 am

sprite

all those -tion words are nasty phantoms today

4:46 am

zoozzoom

Yes this novel is in six books the whole series is called In search of lost time. And the first book is called The way with the swanns as I said before.

4:46 am

sprite

all part of in Search Of Lost Time. Let me know how you like it, zooz :)

4:46 am

sprite

yeah not all translation have the exact same titles, I think. All depends on the translator and publisher.

4:47 am

zoozzoom

I will, sprite. I will tell you as I go along as I get the feeling it is going to take me a looooong time to get through these ones..lol

4:48 am

sprite

yeah you are in for a long read

4:48 am

zoozzoom

Oh good point, Sprite as originally as you know was in french. There was about twenty odd pages describing about how it was translated!

4:48 am

zoozzoom

not was..is

4:48 am

sprite

lol really? Interesting!

4:50 am

zoozzoom

I am always a bit nervous when I start a new collection of books as if I do not get into the first few pages it will not bode well for the rest of the volumes lol

4:50 am

sprite

I think our rose was jealous at my aside with her squirrel and she is making up for lost time now

4:50 am

zoozzoom

But I was told that they are a good read so I went for it and just got all the volumes!

4:50 am

sprite

give it time, zooz. Proust is known by many as the best writer ever. Not for nothing.

4:51 am

grannyrose

just watching you two discussing proust. not an author i can read.

4:51 am

zoozzoom

LOL yeah probably snuck off and is having her evening meal!

4:51 am

rubyfoo

HELLO!!!

4:53 am

4:53 am

sprite

hi ruby, what was so catastrophic? The move? And good that burt is safely there now.

4:53 am

rubyfoo

But today it's getting sorted out.

4:54 am

sprite

war and peace is by Tolstoi, Rose, not Proust :)

4:54 am

zoozzoom

Gosh he needed stiches in his head! Must of been a bad fall.

4:54 am

grannyrose

4:59 am

zoozzoom

I could, Rose. And I know you both would get on like a house on fire!

5:11 am

rubyfoo

did anybody else get the red boxes?

5:12 am

zoozzoom

You both would not be safe to bet out of that room by the way. so you would have to remain there.

5:12 am

sprite

just the 5 am hiccup, ruby, no worries

5:12 am

zoozzoom

Only the normal babble freeze, Ruby.

5:12 am

sukee

Good morning all.

5:29 am

zoozzoom

Hello, Sukee :-)

5:32 am

sukee

Hi zoo.

5:32 am

sukee

Sorry, I had typed that earlier but forgot to hit return :)

5:32 am

zoozzoom

How are you today?

5:33 am

zoozzoom

haha no worries :-)

5:33 am

Scrabbler

Hi kids.

5:33 am

sukee

Okay, had some surprising health news

5:33 am

zoozzoom

Hello, Scrabs :-)

5:33 am

Scrabbler

*waiting*

5:33 am

zoozzoom

I hope it is good news then, Sukee!

5:34 am

sukee

Hi scrabs

5:34 am

Scrabbler

Hello across the pond, zooz.

5:34 am

sukee

Well, not the best. It seems I had a minor heart attack that I didn't even notice. Now the doctor has me on meds.

5:35 am

Scrabbler

Uh, oh. Do you have to have an angiogram now? How old are you?

5:35 am

Scrabbler

...if I may ask. I am a doctor.

5:35 am

sukee

I have had a few tests, I guess I will get more when I see the specialist.

5:35 am

sukee

I am almost 59 and heart disease does run in the family.

5:36 am

Scrabbler

The cardiologist will answer your questions.

5:36 am

sukee

I guess it's possible the shingles pain covered something or maybe it caused the shingles to come out. We really don't know when it happened. My holter results were normal.

5:37 am

sukee

He has me on pills to slow down my heartbeat and one other pill, both low dose.

5:37 am

Scrabbler

Women have atypical signs and symptoms with heart attacks.

5:37 am

Scrabbler

"indigestion" etc

5:38 am

sukee

Both me and the doctor were surprised. I only remember one pain in my back like a knife just before the shingles broke out but when the pain had already started.

5:38 am

zoozzoom

Very sorry to hear that, Sukee. glad it has been spotted now though so things can be monitored.

5:38 am

sukee

Will be ramping up my walking and eating much healthier. I admit I was not always eating that well.

5:39 am

Scrabbler

But even my father at age 71 or so, on an EKG, was found to have evidence of a prior MI.

5:39 am

sukee

I think the fact I never smoked will help a bit.

5:39 am

sukee

It makes you wonder how many people have had heart attacks and don't even realize it.

5:40 am

sukee

I spend a scary weekend before I saw my doctor, but feel much better now. Had my flu shot yesterday :)

5:41 am

lbdawger

good morning, everyone! Sukee that's scary news, but fortunate you know now to take precautions.

5:41 am

zoozzoom

Hello, Dawg :-)

5:41 am

sukee

Hi lbd.

5:42 am

lbdawger

hi zooz, hi sukee

5:43 am

zoozzoom

Best to write down any concerns or questions you have as you think of them, sukee. As when seein the doctors you will forget a lot of them.

5:44 am

sukee

Well, I have survived breast cancer, living with a mobility issue, now this :)

5:45 am

lbdawger

you are one tough lady, sukee!

5:45 am

zoozzoom

You are obviously a strong lady, Sukee. A strong determind mind always helps at these very stressfull times.

5:45 am

zoozzoom

Snap, Dawg!

5:45 am

sukee

I try :)

5:46 am

zoozzoom

:-)

5:48 am

Scrabbler

Hi dawger. Seeing lots of snow?

5:49 am

lbdawger

hiya scrabs! only in the high country. the mountains have a nice shawl of white stuff on the tops. altho the weather liars are saying we're suppose to get some here in the valley today.

5:50 am

sukee

Meanwhile, in Ontario it is going up to 20C today.

5:51 am

Scrabbler

My youngest sister just did a 3 day hike in the Havasupai Reservation portion of the Grand Canyon and encountered snow in Flagstaff, AZ when she departed yesterday.

5:51 am

Scrabbler

Yesterday we hit 73 but I was in the office all day.

5:53 am

lbdawger

chilly 43 here yesterday. Havasupai is a bit higher in elevation than I'm at. weather stream and el nino are showing the southern states across the board are going to get hit with more of the severe weather than up the northwest corridor

5:55 am

sukee

nbt... time to go make some breakfast. Take care all.

5:56 am

zoozzoom

You too, Sukee :-)

5:57 am

JBsAnno

Peri, the spring under the key also needs to be lubricated on either side of its connection. I count myselt a recent expert after cleaning and restoring a keyboard that was used daily, but not cleaned regularly (meaning: at all!). If you know all this already, huzzah, and hope you get a new one soon!

8:29 am

Anniebrook

sounds wonderful. much happiness

8:30 am

JBsAnno

Oh, Peri, so happy for you! Having one's own bathroom is SO nice. And not to share a kitchen - almost heaven!

if you are still here, peri. i read about your keyboard issues. a temporary solution is to go into the windows settings under "Ease of Access" and turn on the Windows on-screen keyboard. it is a pain in the butt for mist applications, however, it is ok for Babble.

hwoolf

Hellos babblers! I have been a casual player on here for a while now. Would anyone on here be interested in participating in a study I am doing for school on online communities?

9:12 am

judy65

I would need info on your school and the class

9:12 am

therealblah

and are the results aggregated and anonymous?

9:13 am

wvteach

How would the results be used? How will the information be identified? Has the study been approved by the school?

9:13 am

72 Temple Owl

is this a college course?

9:14 am

hwoolf

Yes definitely therealblah, I would remove all usernames and identifying information. It is just a project for a college class, the paper would not be read by anyone outside of the class.Study is perhaps not the right word.

9:15 am

72 Temple Owl

any study involving human subjects must follow guidelines and be approved by the department

9:17 am

therealblah

what is the hypothesis? or is it more of a casual survey?

9:17 am

hwoolf

Sorry for the confusion 72 Temple Owl. I was told by my prof we would not need to do a formal IRB review because it is not a formal study but perhaps that is wrong

9:18 am

hwoolf

It is an online ethnography, so its making observations and interviews to help identify and understand an online community

9:19 am

72 Temple Owl

i would go with what the prof says then. it does not seem to be a formal project. this is an interesting community for sure

9:21 am

hwoolf

I will definitely try and think of a way of proving that i am a college student

9:22 am

72 Temple Owl

pysch or sociology?

9:23 am

hwoolf

anthropology

9:25 am

72 Temple Owl

ah. some of us have joked over the years that Babble was created to gather data for someone's research for someone's doctoral dissertation. :)

9:26 am

therealblah

thank goodness we use babblenames ;)

9:26 am

hwoolf

Haha! Unfortunately I am not quite there yet, just an undergrad. I am also a biology and English major so this kind of research is all new to me

9:27 am

judy65

I know how hard it is to get people in on those type things but I need to know that it is valad

9:28 am

72 Temple Owl

gtg. happy babbling, all

9:28 am

therealblah

bye TO

9:29 am

wvteach

kdo you have a site to go to for the survey - will you send it out by email - how will you make contact

9:29 am

hwoolf

Of course judy65. I am not planning on doing anything major today, but once my prof approves the idea, I will get working on a way of proving my identity and ensuring anonymity such as it is

9:35 am

hwoolf

I do not have a site up yet, but if people feel like that would be a good way for them to share experiences, I will try and get one going

9:41 am

judy65

let us know so we can check it out I guess I chould not speak for every one butI belive there is intress

9:43 am

2:03 pm

MLFAN17

gee that was easy for the ra word wasn't it there?:) lol

2:04 pm

therealblah

lol, i never would have gotten them without earlier clues. I think it's harder when the actual root word is not in the grid.

2:05 pm

MLFAN17

I didn't even "see" anything coming close to that since I wasn't looking that direction

2:06 pm

therealblah

certainly not words i use every day

2:06 pm

the no 8 maybe more so then the other

2:07 pm

therealblah

'hi, can i be the no8 of some bad news?"! ;)

2:08 pm

that works for me lol

2:14 pm

did you ever try to save leftovers for another meal but you really want to eat them? this is why it is bad to skip meals. :/

4:55 pm

therealblah

oh gosh yes...or you eat more than one portion and decide it's just not worth it to save the rest so you eat it

4:55 pm

therealblah

b/c you know, you don't want to waste it

4:55 pm

72 Temple Owl

4:55 pm

MollyL

There are a lot of reasons why it's bad to skip meals

4:56 pm

TO, how do you get out to your dances if you don't like being out after darK?

5:07 pm

72 Temple Owl

dancers often carpool. the night driving problem is not unheard of in the dance community. some folks just enjoy company as well.
