12:55 am
VolleymomDee
Makes an already stressful time awful, I am sure.
12:55 am
rururocks
not stressful.. just frustrating
12:56 am
VolleymomDee
Would sure stress me out, especially if I lost a house I fell in love with. Do you have any more prospects?
12:56 am
rururocks
not a lot on the market. I hope it softens some to be honest
12:57 am
VolleymomDee
how much longer do you have your apartment leased?
12:58 am
rururocks
I can stay in this house as long as I want. I'm month to month. I'm renting a house actually
12:58 am

At least that isn't putting any pressure on you. You can take your time.
12:59 am

2:43 am
sprite
oh and you are in the grid too! We get to play together all day!
2:43 am
grannyrose
not too bad, sweetie. started with fasting blood tests, then a quick trip to dr's surgery to drop off some papers to help her write a report for conciliation, then on to a restaurant where we had the most delicious brunch. and how are you? how is that wretched cough?
2:44 am
sprite
wow, good stuff going on, rose. You rock. The cough is as good as gone. I am to sing tonight, sigh... not ready, to be honest. But am gonna give it my best try. Poor audience!

2:55 am
sprite
chasing squirrels, more like!
2:55 am
grannyrose
lollll you wish
2:57 am
sprite
'hey sprite, I am off for a bit, potty and drink and TENS' = doing that kind of stuff.
Disappearing without a word = chasing a squirrel. Can't expect to catch a squirrel if you have to send a chat message first.
2:57 am
grannyrose
acckkk! i put the pads on a little lower and the nerve path there is still very sensitive.
2:58 am
sprite
ouch, poor you
2:58 am

lol ok, true, dat. Here as well, more or less.
3:01 am

i couldn't take it before the blood test, so only had it about 3 hours ago. if you gots to go, you gots to go.
3:03 am

honey can i tell you about my brunch? i don't like to talk of food considering what you have to say know to.
3:05 am
sprite
lolol you can tell me everything about food. I don't mind at all
3:05 am
grannyrose
ugh say no to
3:07 am
grannyrose
i had scrambled eggs with fresh mushrooms folded through them on sourbread to2 with grilled cheese and bacon on it. on the side roasted tomatoes drizzled with balsamic vinegar. honey, on our diet we don't ever have that. i thought i was in heaven. and the eggs had been scrambled with pure cream.
3:07 am
sprite
oh wow, sounds delish!
3:09 am
grannyrose
it was, and don have fried eggs and bacon with grilled tomatoes on his to5. i am pretty sure he enjoyed them gauging by how his eyes kept rolling back in his head.
3:10 am
sprite
also yummy. It is great to be spoiling yourself like that once in a while, isn't it?
3:11 am
grannyrose
it is honey. we are usually so careful about fats in our diet. i am guessing we will pay for it tomorrow...loll
3:12 am

nah, you are entitled to enjoy stuff like that once in a while. Without nasty consequences.
3:15 am

Agreed, Molly I do tend to fly through each tile quickly at first lol
4:40 am

I find that my brain automatically glides over vowel tiles, probably because I find words that start with vowels so annoying
4:45 am

I always struggle with the AE AO type words!

I do too. They just don't seem to stick in my memory files
5:02 am

Good call Judi. You never know when you will need such crucial ingreidents.
8:15 am
bichon
Still don't understand
8:16 am
Judi
If you have an ice cream container at home,Bichon, read the ingredients.
8:16 am
Scrabbler
Yes, about hoarding books for a doomsday. On a related note, bichon, is that as I age I get sad about the reality that I will be unable to read all of the books that I want to before I die.
8:16 am
Judi
It's a food additive, by the way.\

I got over my book hoarding tendencies. I realized that I was better off just keeping one bookshelf of favorites and giving the rest away so that others may enjoy.

Finished all the vowels. Yay, me!

What happened to cause his death, Harry?
8:24 am

There is such lunacy and savagery going on across the world.

the muslim world is one of violence. mohammed converted by the sword and to this day his followers are violent.

Claimed in the name of God, but really it is about power and control.

8:33 am

i read of this 18 year old boy shot by terrorists. there were 5 jews murdered yesterday alone..........and the world doesnt even care enough to report this news.
8:33 am

American media makes me ill these days. It's so slanted to the left, it's ridiculous. What they don't report is even more heinous.
8:33 am

Sad, so sad.

every single day jews are being attacked and murdered and yet where is the world to condemn these acts? where is the UN? it is horrible.

I don't want to blame this on Muslims. It's radicalized ones. We have watched a show called "Arab Labour" It's about Arabs and Jews in Jerusalem and the West Bank
8:34 am

I am ashamed to say that our President has all but turned his back on Israel. Big mistake. Huge.

I agree it is best to not group all Muslims as evil. There is a segment of radicalized, evil ones.
8:37 am
bichon
Mr. Bich was good friends with the Imam who served the Wesleyan community. He also studied Arabic as part of his work as a librarian.
8:37 am
Scrabbler
I do wish that the non-evil Muslims would speak out and overcome ISIL and the evil segment.
8:37 am
bichon
I am proud to say that CT has welcomed Syrian refugees, Muslim and Christian
8:38 am
Scrabbler
Does that make sense or is that even possible?
8:38 am
mkg
of course most muslims are innocent and not radical. but unfortunately, something is wrong with the imams who are preaching violence and enticing the young to murder infidels. and anyone not muslim is an infidel.
8:39 am
LuvWordGames
Some are speaking out Scrabbler. On the news they showed Muslims in Paris holding signs asking to give their fellow Parisians hugs.
8:39 am

Think of what goes on in this country with the religious right who say this is a Christian country
8:39 am

I would also blame the misguided liberal college kids who are siding with the "militants" and demonizing the victims.

lwg - there are a billion and a half muslims in the world - if a few dozen or even a few hundred are asking for hugs, forgive me if I don't stand up and cheer
8:40 am
bichon
Not all college kids are like that
8:41 am

the liberals who have bought the muslim rewrite of history need to read the book "from time immemorial" . that book is amazing.
8:41 am
bichon
I am Jewish to the core, but I like to know more before I make snap judgements
8:41 am

you're right bichon - but colleges have become a very dangerous and intimidating place for kids who want to speak out with differing opinions

9:39 am
gramma
Sorry that was my Jamaican accent taking over my fingers
9:40 am

We can talk politics, but it has to be in a way that is not offensive. Before, earlier in the chat, I thought there were inflammatory comments about Muslims.
9:40 am
MollyL
No, you are right Gramma. People here are very delicate and dynamic conversations with differing opinions seem to upset them.
9:41 am

I don't know. I don't usually look at the conversations until I'm about finished.
9:42 am

I like an "open" chat as long as there isn't name-calling here

I assume the "inflammatory remark" remark was me - I said an Arab killed my student. Which was true.
9:46 am
rururocks
It is really just Stid that gets upset with political discussions
9:46 am
HarryHood
I guess in retrospect I should have said an Arab terrorist.
9:46 am
rururocks
you can just say terrorist in general harry
9:46 am
MollyL
Harry I don't think what you said was inflammatory at all. I think the remarks in question came from mkg.
9:46 am
gramma
That you know of. For thee record, I don't really enjoy them either. But I have options
9:47 am
bichon
Yes, and Jews have killed Arabs
9:47 am

OK ru - I suppose you are right.
9:47 am

Okay carry on...... I'm off to the store.
9:47 am
MollyL
Everyone has options. You can turn the chat off if the conversation is not to your liking.
9:48 am
gramma
That's what I was saying, Molly.
9:48 am
HarryHood
bichon are you referring to the few Jewish terrorism incidents? They are truly awful, and are roundly condemned. If you're speaking about killing of Arabs in defense, I don't think you can draw a moral parallel between shooting somebody who is throwing a rock at your head, and mowing into a crowd of civilians with a truck.
9:49 am
gramma
Buh-Bye. See you all tomorrow. Happy Babbling
9:49 am
bichon
Obviously we are two Jews with differing opinions. No strange thing

reading the chat today is depressing.....ISIS over Hillary -- come on now! And as far as the Israeli - Arab thing goes it's like the chicken and the egg. Seems to me that Israel is the one that couldn't be content with the land it was given after WWII and made a grab for more. You really can't blame Palestine for trying to protect what was theirs. *Climbing off soap box now
