I had a great day yesterday -- did 2 hours of paperwork, close to being finished
5:05 am
rubyfoo
garden was mostlt planted
5:06 am

Oh nice one I bet you will be glad when that paperwork is all done with!
5:06 am

rubyfoo
she is very interesting and nice
5:07 am

it was supposed to rain today which would be timely, but there are patches of blue
5:07 am
zoozzoom
I am glad you are having a nice time, Ruby. Bet your garden is looking good with the new plants planted.
5:08 am

Yes we too are expecting rain today and more for tomorrow. But yesterday was a wonderfully warm and sunny day.
5:08 am
rubyfoo
It is really beautifulnow -- many flowers, all in my color scheme and very few bare spots, except the lawn which is a disgrace!

My lawn has got patches of moss in it. Will have to sort that out soon.Although I still need to fix my fence that has been blown down.
5:11 am
rubyfoo
I would love it if moss took over, but the upper lawn is too dry formoss
5:11 am
rubyfoo
The lower lawn is full of moss and flowering weeds, so it's fine for me
5:14 am
rubyfoo
It sounds huge, but dit's all on a hillside, so both the house and garden are on several levels>. I don't know what will happen if I get older and even weaker
5:15 am

You get the gerdener to do it :-)
5:15 am

He is very discreet
5:17 am
rubyfoo
the dog, not thre handyman

Hi all. I've just got fireworks and will do a list, but you'll have to bear with me being a bit slow because I can't type very well at present; recovering from a shoulder operation.

Congrats on finishing, Jacula!

zoozzoom
I did to be honest, Mlf.
6:49 am
MLFAN17
congrats.. thank goodness u told me four I kept looking for it to start with a 3 letter word
6:49 am
zoozzoom
But see it shows you can get these words if you just gave yourself a little bit of time and patience. And as I can tell it is more rewarding for you too!
6:50 am
MLFAN17
very rewarding for me:) Iit gets a bit frustrating for me after a while
6:50 am
sukee
Does the four letter word mean close?
6:51 am
zoozzoom
Not old, suee.
6:51 am
MLFAN17
sukee for the 10..no
6:52 am
zoozzoom
Well to be correct it means information.

Not quite one pound.

But a perfect little baby already.

In the NICU I took care of 23 week babies and they are adorable.
8:07 am

my coworkers youngest was a micro-premie

They have long and complicated NICU stays but many, if not most, can do quite well.

yup. her little one is doing really well. just turned 4, but shes about the size of a 2 year old. she has had surgery on her eyes and had tubes put in her ears. shes a little more prone to pneumonia, and shes taken longer than most to become verbal.
but overall, shes otherwise a normal, average kid!
8:14 am
Scrabbler
Of course it is best to stay in the uterus for at least 39 weeks, if possible, and not longer than 41.
8:20 am

whew...halfway. Break time

Goodnight from me

Oh, Ruby, I struggle to lose weight.

How Mama feeling?
8:31 am

I can't have tulips here. Well, I can, but the deer nibble them up.
8:31 am
rubyfoo
I cut a hugr armload of lilacs on Sat., but half of them collapsed instantly
8:33 am
rubyfoo
I'm surprised, scrabs, since you are so active. When I lived in Binghamton, to fend off cold I weighed 25 lbs. more than I weigh now and I wasn't fat, just muscular
8:34 am
rubyfoo
Now my legs look like toothpicks
8:34 am
Riverdance
the deer only eat my hostas
8:35 am
Riverdance
must get to work - have a great day everyone
8:35 am

I forgot that I had hostas; I think they've been overtaken by weeds
8:35 am
EvaNadine
mama is feeling good!
finally starting to notice the weight im putting on...might finally be time to pick up a few maternity pieces! (and to try on the few ive got)

mattygroves
I have nbt but still don't have the 10 and am now finding it harder work - I'm a bit on edge as I'm waiting to hear if we're exchanging today on the house. I've found 249 words :)
8:56 am
sprite
the 10 is a compound. You would be one when you sit down with your morning paper.
8:57 am
sprite
oh exciting, matty! Keeping fingers crossed for you.
8:57 am
mattygroves
Thanks Sprite! That's nbt/nbs now :)
9:01 am
TQ
Moving is a pain Matty,when do you hope to actually move?
9:02 am
mattygroves
Well, we're renting at the moment so we're hoping to complete on Monday but we'll have a month to actually move in - we'll see how it goes
9:03 am
Judi
Good luck, Matty. Moving is a slog, but it's also exciting to be going somewhere new.
9:03 am
mattygroves
Yeah - we're currently in a 2 bed flat but moving to a 3 bed townhouse
9:03 am
TQ
Fingers crossed. My daughter moved in November exchanged on the Tuesday completed and moved on the Thursday. Stressful
9:04 am
mattygroves
I'm just hating the waiting. It's a chain of 6 so even though we approved the dates and the exchange first thing this morning it has to go all the way up the chain
9:05 am
sprite
breathe... have faith :) *hug*
9:05 am
Judi
What is this chain you speak of?
9:05 am
mattygroves
Well, we're at the bottom of it - we're buying a house from our seller, who is buying a house from their seller, who is buying a house...up through 6 transactions
9:06 am
TQ
I know what you mean. We got to the stage that I was offering to collect paperwork from the sellers just to get it quicker
9:06 am
mattygroves
It all has to happen on the same day at the same time
9:06 am
periwinkle
what do you mean by exchange, Matty?
9:06 am
sprite
ugh, that is a long wait
9:06 am
mattygroves
Exchange contracts - so you exchange and pay a 10% deposit and then complete which is moving in day
9:06 am
mattygroves
Once you exchange contracts, you'd lose your deposit if you pull out
9:06 am
periwinkle
ok, good luck. hope you hear soon, Matty
9:07 am
mattygroves
Me too - this has been ongoing since Thursday
9:07 am
Judi
* mind boggled *.
9:07 am
TQ
And you spend your time on the phone trying to find out whats happening
9:08 am
mattygroves
Yep - phone, email etc. I know there's not much I can do to speed things up but it's frustrating. I have champaign chilling in the fridge - Jeff needs to book a day off but we don't want to do that until we know the date
9:09 am
TQ
Doesn't it work like that in the US judi
9:09 am
mattygroves
TQ, where are you based?
9:10 am
mattygroves
Ah - we're West London - currently Isleworth moving to Wraysbury in Surry
9:10 am
mattygroves
Surrey, even
9:10 am
TQ
I kept telling my daughter it would be worth it in the end
9:11 am
HarryHood
woohoo halfway!
9:11 am
sprite
good job HH
9:11 am
Judi
Not really, Matty. I used to work in the legal dept for a real estate attorney. As long the buyer, seller, bank and attorney agreed on a closing date/time, that's when the deal gets finalized. No domino set-up of closings/exchanges.
9:12 am
HarryHood
sorry about your real estate headaches matty
9:12 am
Judi
Deposit paid when you make an offer on the house.
9:12 am
mattygroves
It should all work out, it's just frustrating being on edge
9:12 am
HarryHood
but we can have contingent transactions judi, so isn't it possible to get in this type of situation?
9:13 am
sprite
*leads matty away from edge* There, hun. Breathe. Have a tea. Put those feet up. :)
9:13 am
rururocks
I'm glad I don't have to move anymore.. I really hate moving
9:13 am
TQ
It is the waiting
9:13 am
rururocks
morning sprite you're here late?
9:13 am
Judi
I suppose it could, Harry. But all parties would have to be willing. I can assure you, attorneys here would try to avoid that at all costs. As would real estate brokers.
9:13 am
mattygroves
Oh no - here it's on Exchange of Contracts - that's why you can get gazumpted and gazundered here (where you make an offer and just before exchange the seller pulls out because they've received a better offer or if the buyer pulls out or insists on a price reduction)
9:13 am
mattygroves
That isn't true in Scotland I understand, but I don't know exactly how it works there
9:13 am
HarryHood
I see judi. it sounds awful.
9:14 am
sprite
yeah, played earlier but people were posting endless lists, so I went away
9:14 am
TQ
Time to put the kettle on. See you later. Good luck Matty
9:14 am

oh no - is lickety still down?
9:15 am
Judi
Oh no. Once you accept an offer, contracts are signed. Again, you can't get out of it unless the seller is willing to let you go. In that case, you lose at least a portion, if not all, of your deposit.
9:15 am
HarryHood
ack. I should have checked before embarking :)
9:16 am
mattygroves
We had made an offer months ago on a property in the same estate - the seller pulled out before exchange as she decided not to move (I plan on egging her house when we become her neighbours) :)
9:17 am

9:18 am

Rightly so, Matty! Selfish cow. Dress up as homeless people, then egg her house.
9:18 am

9:18 am

do a homeless encampment and stay on her front lawn
9:19 am
sprite
pitch and feathers!
9:19 am
mattygroves
It's an estate - not really any front lawns to speak of (not much property front or back) - and it's gated but I'm sure I'll come up with something creative :
9:20 am
Judi
A barrier of lawn jockeys!
9:21 am
mattygroves
Ha! Or plastic flamingos and garden gnomes
9:21 am
rururocks
maybe leave some pink flamingo things in her front yard
9:21 am
Judi
Even better!
9:21 am
sprite
that is it. Pink flamingos and fishing garden gnomes.
9:21 am
mattygroves
Great minds think alike
9:21 am
Judi
lol. There are actually companies around the US who will "flamingo bomb" someone's property for you -for a price.
9:22 am

9:24 am

I'd prefer the zombies over the flamingos, normal gnomes and cherubs, tbh
9:25 am
mattygroves
I even found (in my last link) a zombie flamingo. Everyone's a winner
9:27 am
mattygroves
I could have a whole zombie ecosystem in front of number 24 :)

9:28 am

Oh, but of course! And some recorded groans
9:28 am

Our former neighbor actually purchased and placed a 6' cement dragon/gargoyle thing near his pool. It was ghastly!

When they sold their house, we were on gargoyle watch to see when they took it down. Finally, they dragged that demonic thing away.
