12:27 am

cybernan

sorry - it was an er 7-8 wasn't it?

12:28 am

Pinikula

hurshy

er, yes. the act or process of removing graphite or chalk markings

12:28 am

Lizlin

er 7 - one letter different from a word meaning wearing away a cliff, for example

12:31 am

hurshy

well that is a word too

12:34 am

hurshy

i guess if english weren't such a crazy hodge-podge, this game wouldn't be so much fun

12:35 am

Lizlin

Funny how ta 4/4 is accepted but you can't add "ism" to it - both are proper nouns!

12:35 am

cybernan

Goooooooooooood morning fellow Babblers xx

1:28 am

Uneaixoise

hey worzel :-)

1:28 am

worzel

Hello Une!!

1:32 am

grannyrose

hey ya son. how are you and the gorgeous diane? xox

1:33 am

grannyrose

bbs

1:33 am

worzel

Well hello mum! We are both fine (it's only 730am here so she is still asleep) and I am shortly going to be getting ready for work - last day before my week off which, I have to say, I am looking forward to. Haven't spent nearly enough time with Diane thanks to work. How are you and Dad? x

1:34 am

grannyrose

we are both b/well exhausted. thanx for asking. we were manning a table in t5he local shopping centre, trying to sell raffle tickets, from 9am til 3pm. even my eyes are burning... loll

1:35 am

grannyrose

next monday i go in for my infusion. the last one lasted 12 weeks.

1:35 am

worzel

Awww I feel for you. Was there anything exciting in the raffle? And what was it in aid of? x

1:37 am

grannyrose

first three prizes are a brand new car. we are fund-raising to pay for the play equipment we (at our church) are building. it has security fencing all around so the little ones can play in safety and parents know the kiddies cannot be snatched or run onto a ro4.

1:39 am

grannyrose

well, we aren't building the equipment, but we have built the play area. so far without asking for any financial help. but the equipment is jolly well very expensive.

1:40 am

worzel

thanks for the ro 4 lol am having a terrible time with the grids lately every little helps. And your cause is an awesome one I hope you raise the money you need. You obviously have some very generous donors for prizes! I once won a weekend to Paris in a raffle so that was nice - mind you it rained all weekend and my exwife was in a foul mood so that kinda ruined it, but still, at least I can say I've been up the Eiffel Trifle!!

1:40 am

grannyrose

btw, did you see that Mark's and spencer are coming downunder?

1:40 am

worzel

Sorry, I did notice your infusion - I hope it goes well for you Mum xx

1:42 am

grannyrose

thanx dear man. i will probably sleep the whole day and night... lolll. it will be worth it if i feel as good as i did after the last one. i was running around like a 25 year old...

1:42 am

worzel

No I didn't see that about M&S. They have had lots of troubled times in the UK over the last 10 to 15 years, financially. They seem to be holding steady at the moment but this week alone the UK has lost two of it's major players on the shopping front - British Home Stores which has been around since the year dot and Austin Reed - a major clothing chain here. I'm not personally a shopper at M&S but I wouldn't wish them ill - too many companies are folding at the moment

1:45 am

grannyrose

*giggle* like i said before, bbs. xox

1:45 am

worzel

Hangment - I've just spotted the time! I have to dash too for work!!! I shall see you all anon - and good luck with the play equipment safety work Mum!!! xxxx

Morning all - stats for the bottom right O please

2:15 am

mattygroves

I have a chest cold but otherwise, hanging in there :)P How about you (guys)

2:15 am

sprite

yeah I know. Things are crazy and I am so so tired. Lack the energy to make it to babble in the morning, most days.

2:16 am

sprite

aw nasty, matty :( May you feel better really soon!

2:16 am

mattygroves

I hope so! Coughing is keeping everyone awake

2:16 am

grannyrose

not too bad thanx sprite. i am totally exhausted tonight(your morning) we have manned a stall for 6 hours today.

2:16 am

sprite

including you. So very tiring, coughing.

2:16 am

mattygroves

007/21 and 8/45, ursh

2:17 am

sprite

oh my, rose... isn't that way too taxing for you?

2:17 am

grannyrose

*gentle hugs and kisses for sprite* hang in there sweetie. your energy levels must be on the rise soon. how long does it usually take to recover from what uou have just been through?

2:18 am

sprite

usually it goes back up in a few weeks. But things keep happening here and that does not help.

2:19 am

grannyrose

my poor sweetheart> tell them to go away... yeh i know, you cannot say that... your heart is waaaay too big for that.

2:20 am

sprite

well it kinda closed yesterday on the boyo. Told him to start taking care of himself, including cooking, washing and the works. And to find a room somewhere else.

2:20 am

grannyrose

sprite, just tomorrow, when we commission our new youth worker, then MONDAY..... i am hanging on by my fingernails.

2:21 am

sprite

*sending rose a truckload of energy and relaxants and pain relief... and a busload of helping angels*

2:21 am

grannyrose

oh love. that is just too sad... and bad.... but he has to learn...the whole world DOES NOT revolve around him and his moods.

2:22 am

sprite

he said he was glad I finally told him to get out of the house. That I finally admitted hating him.

2:22 am

licketySplitAUS

Clues are up

2:22 am

sprite

wow Lickety, thank you

2:22 am

grannyrose

thanx lickety. xoxox

2:24 am

grannyrose

nasty boyo. you don't hate him of course. just his actions and words.

2:26 am

sprite

yeah you know it and I know it. But he is being a total ass again. Am so tired of it. He told me yesterday I am lazy and never lift a finger.

2:26 am

mattygroves

Adbad = a really terrible television commercial

2:26 am

grannyrose

and dare i say it?? of course i do 'cos it's sprite i am talking to.. tell him to grow up and get a life.

2:27 am

sprite

lol I like it, adding it Matty

2:27 am

sprite

amen, sister of my heart

2:28 am

sprite

hehehe, matty, your word is now the very first in the dictionary :D

2:28 am

mattygroves

Woop! I feel so special

2:28 am

sprite

you are!

2:28 am

grannyrose

'cos you are matty. * grin*

2:29 am

mattygroves

Special something, anyway :) So sorry to hear about your son(?! - is that right)?

2:29 am

grannyrose

or what sprite says.... loll

2:29 am

sprite

rose, I am tired of fighting it. Rob and I have bent ourselves backwards to make it work with Tim. Now this, again about his chores.

2:29 am

sprite

yes he is our son.

2:29 am

sprite

special and loveable, matty!

2:30 am

grannyrose

honey, there is only so much you both can do. try to pay no never mind to his words. he will prolly thank you in a few years time.

2:30 am

mattygroves

I do sympathise - I have a grown daughter who is now brilliant but we had our trials with undone chores, no picking up etc. She went away to uni though and because of our divorce, couldn't move back home (nowhere to go) so perhaps we avoided the worst of it

2:30 am

sprite

you know Rob is on canoe holiday, right? So I made a schedule with the kids to share in the extra work. Here is Tim's reasoning: "I got the groceries, so I don't have to do the dishes."

2:31 am

sprite

I really think it is time he moves out too, matty. It is simply not working.

2:31 am

grannyrose

huh??? okay, male logic to the fore yet again... silly kiddo.

2:31 am

mattygroves

Sorry to ask quesstions to which everyone else knows the answer - how old is he?

2:32 am

sprite

so... kitchen was a mess... I didn't cook, knowing Caya was eating at a friend... and all hell broke loose when he found out dinner was not waiting for him.

2:32 am

grannyrose

roflol... good for you sprite.

2:32 am

sprite

ask away! He is almost 20

2:33 am

mattygroves

Bloody hell. He's behaving like a six year old. Or a spoiled prince with a household of mistreated servents

2:33 am

sprite

amen! That is exactly it.

2:33 am

grannyrose

you got it in one matty

2:33 am

mattygroves

Just call him Joffrey (Game of Thrones reference) - anyone who watches GOT will know exactly what you mean ;)

2:34 am

sprite

hehehehe oh that is a good one

2:34 am

mattygroves

And if he complains, tell him it could be worse. You could have called him Ramsay Bolton.

2:35 am

sprite

*looking up that one*

2:35 am

mattygroves

Ramsay is a sadistic b'stard. He likes (among other things) flaying people. Alive.

2:36 am

sprite

arrrrgh! I read the books, don't remember him.

2:36 am

mattygroves

The Bastard of Bolton. The one who turned Theon into Reek

2:37 am

sprite

guess I have to reread, or to get into the series on tv

2:37 am

sprite

rose, sweetie, is Don helping you as much as he can?

2:37 am

mattygroves

Anyhoo - a truly terrible, both in the books and the series, excuse for a human being

2:38 am

grannyrose

yes he is sweetie. and i am deliberately NOT doing some of the chores, and asking him to do them.

2:38 am

sprite

well, Tim isn't like that, thank God. But he is lazy, extremely so. It has been an endless battle from the moment he was old enough to pitch in.

2:38 am

sprite

you are wonderful, rose. Good job. I know that isn't easy.

2:39 am

grannyrose

no it's not, honey. i find myself biting my tongue over and over again.

2:40 am

sprite

*gives rose a long warm hug* You are a hero.

2:40 am

ursh

hmm Sprite funny how most boys are born with a sense of entitlement and through their teens and twenties feel that mothers were put on earth to bow to their every whim

2:40 am

sprite

phantom: parent. How fitting.

2:41 am

grannyrose

*smooching with sprite* our meeting is sooo gonna be full of hugs and kisses... and tears

2:41 am

sprite

isn't he the only one, ursh! That is good to know!

2:41 am

sprite

oh man, it will be, rose. Can't wait. Anything concrete re plans yet?

2:42 am

ursh

oh my goodness NO he is one of millions haha

2:42 am

grannyrose

not yet, honey. i really want to find out how i can travel via plane before i set anything down.

2:43 am

sprite

very wise, rose. Take your time. Better wait another year than rush and not enjoying it.

2:43 am

sprite

that IS good to know, ursh :)

2:50 am

grannyrose

from the left a, i am missing an ar5... for the life of me, i simply cannot see it.

2:50 am

sprite

2:58 am

sprite

*giggles* for keeps, darling. You and me.

2:58 am

grannyrose

oh, yeah. for keeps. xoxox

2:59 am

sprite

ok in that case I am off. *hugs* to you all. Rose, sleep well and try to rest as best as you can. I am thinking of you.
Matty, get better soon!

3:00 am

grannyrose

Oh good grief. Many thanks, Sarah!

4:27 am

rubyfoo

Since your weather is a hzrbinger (sort of) of mine, Is it still spring or has he cold re-descended?

4:27 am

silversarah

no problem

4:27 am

rubyfoo

Hello Sarah, I haven't seen you before

4:28 am

zoozzoom

No the coldness is still here, Ruby. Although they did ay it is supposed to be warming up a little by the end of this week.

4:28 am

rubyfoo

harbinger**

4:28 am

rubyfoo

The one good thing abodut the fprotracted cold is that the tulips and flowering trees have lasted much longer than usual

4:29 am

rubyfoo

my typing is awful this AM, pls excuse the typos

4:29 am

zoozzoom

Yes I suppose that is a good thng, Ruby. And as long as the wind stays away too lol

4:30 am

rubyfoo

I feel the same, hating the piercing lake Wind (the "bise") that comes through this valley

4:32 am

zoozzoom

Oh wow I randomly typed words that would fit on the end of oo and found the OO 7 & 8 !

4:33 am

zoozzoom

If you want a clue for them , Sarah, just let me know :-)

4:33 am

silversarah

4:34 am

zoozzoom

4:34 am

zoozzoom

4:34 am

MollyL

Wait, wait, if she found them, why does she need clues?
: O

4:35 am

silversarah

thanks very much

4:35 am

zoozzoom

NoNo she said what the stats was but did not know what the words were :-)

4:36 am

MollyL

It was you that said you found them Zoom, I am not following the chat properly.

4:36 am

zoozzoom

And happy Arbor to you too, Molly :-)

4:37 am

MollyL

Thanks, that was yesterday. Need to update my profile.

4:37 am

zoozzoom

Of which your icon fits perfectly.

4:37 am

rubyfoo

hello Molly

4:37 am

MollyL

I am a big lover of trees.

4:37 am

MollyL

Hi Ruby

4:38 am

zoozzoom

Yes me too!

4:38 am

rubyfoo

4:40 am

MollyL

They are beautiful in their peace, They are wise in their silence, They will stand after we are dust, They teach us and we tend them. ~ G. MacDunelmor

4:41 am

rubyfoo

Lovely words

4:41 am

rubyfoo

When we moved here and in the year before, I had 15 different trees planted, some of which are huge now

4:43 am

zoozzoom

I have two trees in my garden that is all the room I have as my garden is rather small. But I am pleased I have them as they also have birds tweeting in them too :-)

4:44 am

zoozzoom

All the other gardens on my road does not have any trees at all.

4:44 am

MollyL

I would love to have enough property to plant 15 trees.

4:45 am

rubyfoo

I knew nothing about gardens until I started re**ing about them as this is my first and although there was space here, there was nothing else but a few shrubs and pine trees and a herdge all around

4:45 am

rubyfoo

They were tiny and now some are inappropriate and others died.

4:46 am

rubyfoo

I was overly ambitious

4:46 am

MollyL

It's amazing what the Earth will give back to us if we tend it properly.

4:46 am

rubyfoo

That's so true, I am thankful for my garden every day

4:48 am

zoozzoom

Yes me too! When the sun is shining and it is warm enough to sit in my garden With my two trees and the birds in them it is wonderful!

4:48 am

rubyfoo

hah, lunch is here, see you later, kids

4:48 am

zoozzoom

Hope it is edible, Ruby! Have a great day :-)

4:49 am

rubyfoo

Saturday is usually OK; yesterday was slim pickin's

5:05 am

bichon

I just planted a Winterberry tree in the hope of attracting birds

5:13 am

MollyL

You should, birds love berries.

5:14 am

bichon

In the winter too. Right outside our living room

5:37 am

sukee

Good morning all.

5:44 am

rubyfoo

bakck and hello Bichon and Sukee

5:44 am

sukee

Hi Ruby

5:45 am

rubyfoo

One of the trees is a "seureua" which may be the same thing. It has white flowers and orange beries which the birds love ANS it had a baby, not far away

5:46 am

rubyfoo

Also, we planted a tiny holly which is now very big and it, too, had babies. The birds love it so much that they eat the berries before they tirn red

5:46 am

sukee

Nice. I can see a lot of trees from my balcony :)

5:49 am

mattygroves

I'm not doing terribly well on this grid. Admittedly no list but I have found 132 but only six 6s, six 7s and two 8s :(

5:49 am

sukee

If it makes you feel better, I don't have any 7s or 8s

5:50 am

mattygroves

Most of my 7s (though not all) are plurals

5:50 am

rubyfoo

>T>he garden is perfect for birds: no cats, 2 feedings a day orf sunflower seeds, a fishpond for water, fruit trees (like a cherry which is beautiful but has tasteless fruit) and they, in exchange, provide Entertainment for the dogs

5:51 am

sukee

Sounds lovely.

5:51 am

rubyfoo

hi Matty

5:51 am

mattygroves

* waves * *coughs* (I have a chest cold)

5:52 am

rubyfoo

Does steam helps, Matty?

5:52 am

sukee

Do you happen to have either 0 in the bottom right hand corner

5:52 am

rubyfoo

nope

Great, ty

thank you, Matty, I would nev"r have found those

Looks like a new laptop is in my future. The fan is not working properly on this one.

5:54 am

sukee

I have sprayed it and cleaned it and nothing works.

5:55 am

mattygroves

Blow on it?

5:55 am

sukee

That is about the only thing I have not done.

5:55 am

MollyL

I had that happen. And unless you are some kind of computer genius, it is the same price for a new one as it is to have someone take it apart and clean the fan.

5:56 am

sukee

That is what I was thinking Molly.

5:56 am

rubyfoo

I didn't know they had fans

5:56 am

sukee

Yes, to stop them from overheating.

5:56 am

sukee

And, my Bluetooth acts up too, sometimes my speakers connect, most times they don't.

5:57 am

rubyfoo

I don't think mine has one

5:57 am

sukee

I was looking at some for around $600, I think I can swing that.

5:58 am

sukee

I would stick with my iPad if I didn't still do writing to help support myself. I need a real keyboard :)

5:58 am

MollyL

Six hundred? Are you a Mac person?

5:58 am

sukee

I could possibly claim it as a business expense though.

5:59 am

sukee

Remember, we are talking Canadian prices :) This one was around $600.

5:59 am

sukee

This is an HP

5:59 am

mattygroves

I imagine you're talking CAD - what's the exchange rate these days?

5:59 am

MollyL

Oh, I always forget about the jacked up Canadian prices.

5:59 am

sukee

I did see an Acer for around $400, but I have not heard great things about the brand.

6:00 am

sukee

The exchange rate is not good right now, our dollar is 80cents on the American dollar.

6:00 am

MollyL

Acers are junk. Stick with a brand you know is reliable.

6:01 am

rubyfoo

no Wonder I have so much trouble with my little Acer! I didn't know

6:01 am

sukee

Sigh, just when I start to put some money aside to eventually move something comes up.

6:01 am

MollyL

Also, it can be helpful to read consumer reviews on any major purchase you are thinking of making.

6:02 am

sukee

I am finally on the waiting list for seniors community housing, even though I am not 60 yet. Hopefully, I will get in one of the buildings I want by the time I am 65.

6:02 am

MollyL

I hear you Sukee. I will be dropping a load of cash at the dentist later today.

6:02 am

sukee

I was happy with this computer, but it's only about 3 or 4 years old.

6:03 am

rubyfoo

How much do porcelain crowns cost in the US? I just got one here and have no idea if the dentist took advantage or not

6:04 am

bichon

I have a Lenovo and it's great, but not cheap

6:04 am

MollyL

Depends on the dentist Ruby. They are expensive though.

6:04 am

bichon

I'm not sure ruby, haven't had one in a while.

6:04 am

rubyfoo

I think Lenovo is IBM's export brand

6:05 am

sukee

Best Buy here has a Lenovo IdeaPad for $449.99 right now.

6:05 am

rubyfoo

Peoplehere all have insurance, but I think this dentist kept in mind that I haven't any

6:05 am

mattygroves

Apparently here on the NHS, they cost Â£233.70

6:05 am

mattygroves

But that also includes the prior work (scale, polish, any root canal needed etc)

6:06 am

sukee

Wow who needs teeth anyway :)

6:06 am

zoozzoom

Or around Â£800 private.

6:06 am

rubyfoo

Is that your co-pay or the total price?

6:07 am

rubyfoo

That makes, sense, zzoozz, as mine cost 800 euros including all the rest

6:07 am

zoozzoom

I now have three crowns and i have to pay private as i can not get on the NHS dentist :-(

6:07 am

bichon

I thinl $500-$1,000 is about right, not NHS

6:08 am

rubyfoo

This replaced a 51 yr old crown over a live tooth, back in the days when they said you would lose a tooth for every baby

6:08 am

MollyL

Oh gee, poor Mrs. Duggar

6:09 am

rubyfoo

??

6:09 am

MollyL

The woman from 19 Kids And Counting

6:09 am

sukee

What happened? another kid?

6:10 am

MollyL

No, I was referring to what Ruby said about losing a tooth for every baby

6:10 am

sukee

lol

6:10 am

MollyL

*Places sense of humor back in the closet

6:10 am

sukee

My mother actually lost all of her teeth not long after I was born.

6:11 am

sukee

Not sure exactly what happened.

6:12 am

rubyfoo

Losing teeth is something I fear, like blindness and death and worms

6:13 am

rubyfoo

(sorry)

6:14 am

mattygroves

Yesterday I posted a selfie of my new haircut. It then occurred to me that future archeologists, discovering all our selfies, will think we are a world of zombies (or Frankenstein monsters)

6:14 am

mattygroves

With our arms stretched out in front of us.

6:14 am

rubyfoo

that dÃ©pends on the haircut

6:14 am

Do you have a selfie stick?

I think the future archaeologists will just think we were a society too stuck on ourselves.

6:18 am

Rain just started -- gloomy!!

6:19 am

Today is a sunny day here, after a couple of days of gloom :)

6:21 am

By the way, my hair looks very much like yours right now.

Haha, pianoforte.

Very clever - I was actually thinking of the dynamic!

rururocks

welki still here?

11:23 am

welki

just came back

11:23 am

rururocks

sorry I stepped away to do dishes.

11:24 am

rururocks

yes. Dylan is adjusted pretty well.

11:24 am

rururocks

I love my new house

11:24 am

welki

no apology necessary

11:24 am

rururocks

I'm going to adopt the lab after I put the pool in and landscape the yard

11:24 am

welki

my dogs have pretty much landscaped my yard, and not in a good way

11:25 am

welki

we had it redone two years ago, fairly dog-friendly, but they had other things in mind

11:25 am

rururocks

i'm putting in a small lawn and some fruit trees.

11:25 am

rururocks

my dogs are going to mostly be inside dogs I think. Like right now Dylan is sleeping under my desk

11:26 am

welki

we did the tiny lawn and sections of prairie grass, lilies and some drought-resistant bushes

11:27 am

rururocks

i'm probably going to have a lot of rock areas.. to cut back on watering

11:28 am

welki

and at the lake house, we back onto the 18th fairway - just a deck, block patio and grass - so no landscaping there, but we have to do some patchwork on the grass

11:28 am

rururocks

I finally got a landscape company to take on the project

11:29 am

welki

that's harder work than i thought it was - sitting with blueprints and an open checkbook

11:30 am

rururocks

yeah..it's going to be a chunk of change alright

11:30 am

welki

worth it, if you can maintain it - we should have done a better job

11:31 am

rururocks

planning to have a gardening company take care of stuff. I am just not good at it.

11:32 am

rururocks

I do want a plum, apricot, peach, and lemon tree for sure

11:32 am

welki

best plan - i'm okay at it, but just don't have the time or inclination. translation = lazy

11:32 am

welki

nah, i'm not lazy, just have my priorities in the wrong order :)

11:33 am

welki

lol - guess that equates to lazy

11:33 am

rururocks

yes

11:34 am

72 Temple Owl

i am working with a landscaper now. may as well just hand over the credit card. at least i will get miles.

11:36 am

welki

if you plan to spend a lot of time in the yard, owl, the investment is worth the tranquility of a beautifully done area.

11:36 am

rururocks

I have a budget.. so probably I won't be able to get it all done at once the way I want

11:37 am

welki

and, if you keep it up, i really think it adds to the property's value, if you ever intend to sell

11:38 am

72 Temple Owl

only trying for restoration and presentability at present. my new mantra: at least i will get miles

11:39 am

72 Temple Owl

no welk. i live next to slobs who neglect our adjoining side, and it is cluster housing.

11:40 am

welki

then your plan is perfect - the miles, so you can travel

11:40 am

72 Temple Owl

yep.

11:43 am

welki

off for a bit - nice chatting, later everyone

<--getting excited about the vacation

4:19 pm

Bugsaw

I hope you take more than just one little one every year. I liked at least 3 weeks to feel like I actually stopped thinking about work.

4:22 pm

rururocks

I have to work a lot. I tend to try to take 3 day weekends when I get tired. I can't get away for weeks unfortunately

4:25 pm

Bugsaw

but you can work as much or as little as you want, right? I am doing that in retirement now and I am a lot happier

4:27 pm

rururocks

I can work whatever hours I choose. my Ex (and biz partner) is a slave driver and works me to death :D

4:27 pm

Bugsaw

you are still working together? that is amazing

4:28 pm

rururocks

I like my job though So I don't mind the long hours most days. But now that I'm older.. I know when I need to rest

4:28 pm

rururocks

yes.. we actually get along much better now that we don't live together. it's working out fine

4:29 pm

Bugsaw

it is often the case that you get along better but I wouldn't want to work with my ex. not seeing things from the same viewpoint was the biggest issue we had

4:30 pm

rururocks

no.. that wasn't our problem. We often see things the same way. I think that's why we were married for so long

4:31 pm

Bugsaw

nice

4:31 pm

rururocks

now .. we don't argue anymore.. it's nice

4:31 pm

MollyL

4:37 pm

rururocks

4:38 pm

MollyL

Sounds like a nice getaway

4:38 pm

rururocks

4:40 pm

rururocks

I made a Chinese chicken salad today for dinner.. came out great

4:40 pm

rururocks

(sans cashews though)

4:43 pm

Well that's good. Cashews would make for a fatal meal.
