good morning all

2:34 am

Lizlin

Hi and hugs, Sprite

2:34 am

sprite

*hugs Liz* hi there :) How has your week of celebration been?

2:35 am

Lizlin

Had to think about that! Just 2 days. Fine thanks. Not really celebration , as such.

2:36 am

Lizlin

How was your celebratory me All?

2:36 am

Lizlin

Meal

2:36 am

sprite

oh sorry :) Thought it was a full week.

2:36 am

Lizlin

And Robs birthdays?

2:36 am

Lizlin

Sorry iPads being a hit glitchy.

2:36 am

sprite

it was great. We had a good time together. And all presents were received with eagerness.

2:37 am

Lizlin

Bit*

2:37 am

Lizlin

And is Clever Caya sill on cloud 9?

2:37 am

sprite

*giggles* Oh that autocorrect...

2:38 am

sprite

absolutely. We all still are.

2:39 am

Lizlin

Wonderful!

2:40 am

Lizlin

How's your ear?

2:40 am

sprite

only two months left now... then she will be living by herself. Sigh. Ah well, that is the job parents sign on for, right?

2:41 am

sprite

pi

2:41 am

sprite

sorry, fingers slipped

2:41 am

Lizlin

True but then you can look forward to visiting her and her visits home.

2:42 am

sprite

true. It will start a whole new kind of relationship with her. Looking forward to that part :) Will miss her here though.

2:43 am

Lizlin

Of course you will.

2:44 am

Lizlin

But I guess it'd be more worrying if she showed no inclination to leave.

2:45 am

sprite

that would be alarming, yes. She is ready to move out and tackle life by herself. And we are still in the background to step in when she wants us to. So it will all be fine. Having kids hurts... fact of life :) But worth it.

2:46 am

Lizlin

I'm sure. Did you miss my question about your ear?

2:47 am

sprite

oh sorry, yes I did. Looks like the antibiotics are working. Swelling is going down a bit. Pain is a little less too. A bit sick from the AB but not insanely so. Thanks for caring :)

2:48 am

Lizlin

Happy that the antibiotics are working. Hopefully the sickness will pass soon.

2:49 am

sprite

how are you and how is your beloved?

2:51 am

Lizlin

All's good here. Except the weather. Loads of rain all down east coast Aus. Still haven't been whale watching yet :( We'll possibly go on Wednesday.

2:52 am

sprite

will keep fingers crossed you can go

2:52 am

Lizlin

Thanks. I'm sure our proper winter weather will set in soon. Calm weather and blue skies. Certainly hope so.

2:53 am

sprite

summer isn't here yet either. Lots of rain, rain, rain. And too cold for the season.

2:54 am

Lizlin

Similar in the UK I believe :(

2:54 am

sprite

yeah and france too, I understand from our ruby.

2:56 am

Lizlin

Think I need to list soon. Pretty stuck.

2:56 am

sprite

I am halfway with only one 7 so far. But that is normal for me. Is it a tough grid?

2:57 am

Lizlin

I think so. Still missing 4 X 7 and 2 X 8

2:57 am

Lizlin

Preferred yesterday's grid

2:57 am

sprite

that was a nice one indeed

3:00 am

sprite

talia is in the grid :)

3:00 am

Lizlin

She is.

3:01 am

Lizlin

People are losing faith in Richard!

3:01 am

sprite

bitter, isn't it. I finished the series, btw. Thanks for the headsup on the last two books.

3:02 am

Lizlin

Good. As you'll realise, I'm about halfway through The Omen Machine.

3:03 am

sprite

:D indeed.

3:04 am

Lizlin

Again some of the descriptions are over the top gory but I don't let that get in the way of the narrative.

3:05 am

sprite

good :D He definitely would be an even better writer if he let someone edit his work.

3:06 am

Lizlin

Agree but I guess enough people read his stuff, so why would he worry?

3:07 am

sprite

very true, no real reason except maybe wanting to be as good as you can be, and staying humble enough to realise you can't edit your own stuff... since you are too close to the flame, so to speak.

3:08 am

Lizlin

Some people are too full of themselves to accept that anything of theirs could be improved!

3:08 am

sprite

yep and that shows in their work, alas.

3:09 am

sprite

but, having said that, I still enjoyed the series very much.

3:10 am

Lizlin

Still, I'm enjoying these even with the faults.

3:11 am

sprite

yeah and even though some things are left loose in the end, I really like his end solution for the series. He works out the prophecy angle very intelligently.

3:12 am

Lizlin

i do like the way he ties things up. He did that well in the last series. I like how this continues but so far, could also stand more or less alone.

3:13 am

sprite

yeah it seems like he tries to make them stand alone more, without making us loyal fans feel like we have to read a lot of repeat text. Well done.

3:13 am

Lizlin

Time for a break from this grid. Really not seeing anything now. Lovely chatting. Enjoy the rest of the weekend. Hugs.

3:14 am

sprite

you too! *HUGS* for the both of you

crosshair

RUBY, IF YOU GO TO : START/ ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES/EASE OF ACCESS/EASE OF ACCESS CONTROL CENTER THERE ARE OPTIONS AND SETTING THERE TO HELP YOU SEE YOUR TYPE BETTER ON YOUR MONITOR.

5:27 am

Trifioso

oh dear - one of my smoke detectors is chirping because it needs a battery change I guess. WHY do they always pick the wee hours to do so?

5:28 am

crosshair

he always do that at 3 am I find...

5:28 am

crosshair

they

5:28 am

MollyL

Ruby in Windows 8 you just need to search EASE OF ACCESS. OTHER EASE OF ACCESS OPTIONS will give you the magnifier.

5:28 am

crosshair

as I said :)

5:29 am

MollyL

One problem people have with Windows 8 is there is no Start menu. That is why I mentioned it.

5:30 am

crosshair

true enough. I did my best to avoid 8

5:30 am

MollyL

I find it very counter intuitive, which is why I am avoiding Windows 10

5:31 am

crosshair

I am just staying with 7 Pro. if something is not broken, i see no need to try and fix it

5:31 am

rubyfoo

I CAN MAGNIFY BUT IT JUST MAKES IT BIGGR AND STULL BLURRY BUT ADDS A HALO

I think the Warriors take it.. but it is far from a sure thing given the way it's been going

10:12 am

worzel

Thank you fans!!!

10:13 am

rururocks

ten hours? really?

10:13 am

MLFAN17

my husband has said that the series was dragged on so it would end in calif and the players get more money. some are also being accused of cheating

10:13 am

worzel

I know ru, shocking isn't it? I put it down to old age

10:13 am

MLFAN17

yes the game starts at 9pm because it is a 3 hour time change

10:14 am

Aloyisius

my husband believes the same for baseball series, MLF

10:14 am

rururocks

tell your husband the players get the same amount of money no matter how many games they play mlf..

10:14 am

MLFAN17

it can happen in any sport alloy that's for sure

10:14 am

MLFAN17

ruru yes but the more games the play the more money they get

10:14 am

rururocks

hey Aloy.. what did you think about that Gator grabbing that little kid at Disneyworld?

10:14 am

Aloyisius

really, ru? for basketball and baseball?

10:15 am

rururocks

that isn't true in the play-offs mlf.. if they only played 4 games they would be paid the same

10:15 am

MLFAN17

any sport aloy

10:15 am

MLFAN17

ruru yes but they get paid as long as they play

10:16 am

Aloyisius

ru, that was so so sad.. and there are many things that could be done to prevent a tragedy like that in the future.. I hope they are implemented asap

10:17 am

rururocks

that's incredible that they didn't post signs near the water

10:17 am

MLFAN17

I think the resort is closed inst it?

10:17 am

Aloyisius

gators are limbic creatures

10:17 am

rururocks

i read about a gator grabbing a fisherman right out of a boat and killing him

10:18 am

rururocks

what do you mean limbic?

10:18 am

Aloyisius

food seeking.. and if people feed them (they do).. makes the problem so much worse because their primitive brains associate people with food

10:19 am

MLFAN17

reports have also said it hadn't happened in years

10:19 am

MLFAN17

if you stay still and leave them alone they will not bother you

10:19 am

rururocks

yes.. i read that too .. that people kept feeding the gators at the resort from their hotel rooms

10:20 am

MLFAN17

apparently those people are stupid and are pretty much asking for trouble

10:20 am

Aloyisius

not normal behavior for most gators.. but MLF, that is not always true.. our neighbor is having problems with a "nuisance gator".. one that approaches instead of veers away when the dogs bark.. not good

10:20 am

rururocks

much of America is really stupid Mlf.. hence Trump is running

10:20 am

MLFAN17

that is scary aloy

10:21 am

MLFAN17

ruru trump and Clinton if you ask me

10:21 am

phaeton

dang...missed my answer. :-(

10:21 am

rururocks

rururocks

I wouldn't vote for her either

10:23 am

Aloyisius

will be a very interesting convention in cleveland.. back to gators.. ru, we live in gator land here.. they are numerous and we often see them kayaking and boating, etc.. they usually slide off their sun banks and avoid humans when we approach, much to the consternation of visitors who want to get a pic.. but our neighbor is describing a gator that needs watching.. it doesn't move away.. it approaches!

10:24 am

MLFAN17

more so then trump but true not all the way

10:24 am

rururocks

oh.. he wants doggy snacks then

10:24 am

Aloyisius

absolutely correct

10:24 am

MLFAN17

alloy I want the warriors to win

10:25 am

rururocks

what kind of dogs do they have

10:25 am

Aloyisius

one is a border collie and the other is a german shepherd

10:25 am

MLFAN17

I saw a video of a gator that was trying to go up someone's front door

10:25 am

Aloyisius

boo on you MLF.. root for the CAVS

10:25 am

MLFAN17

can they keep the dogs inside for a while?

10:25 am

MLFAN17

alloy nope sorry WARRIORS

10:26 am

Aloyisius

no, that won't work MLF.. the dogs use an in/out door

10:26 am

rururocks

they also had a video of a gator trying to get into the ride at Disneyland being pushed off with a pole by an employee

10:27 am

MLFAN17

eek possibility of the gators trying to get inside to but lets hope not

10:27 am

MLFAN17

ruru daring little gator huh?

10:27 am

phaeton

they want to have fun too!

10:28 am

MLFAN17

maybe they can call animal control though the police usually get called for gator probs

10:28 am

Aloyisius

must be a pun about Gator Ade in this chat somewhere..

10:28 am

rururocks

he wasn't tall enough for the ride I guess :D

10:28 am

MLFAN17

10:34 am

72 Temple Owl

10:36 am

phaeton

10:36 am

72 Temple Owl

they would say, it's an old gator, it never bothers anyone. and they are lakes, that is the attraction, and they have beaches

10:37 am

72 Temple Owl

yes they do. the locals did.

10:37 am

rururocks

oh jeesus

10:37 am

MLFAN17

How are you doing, Soodle? Will you be able to make it to the states to meet up with your daughter while she's here?

4:34 pm

unless 6 numbers hop up in the lotto, alas No, Nef. But she is totally LOVING it so far. The heat has her murfered, but her fellow counsellors are lovely & she is happy as larry.

I'll bet the kitty won't look the least bit lonely if you try to video him...

4:44 pm

I feel the same way, Soodle. I was one of those "nose to the grindstone" types; working hard to pay off school loans and earn money to do things later -- like travel.

4:45 pm

Nef

DH & I used to say that we would buy an RV and travel around the whole continent in our "golden" years; buttery time we plan a trip he gets sick for some reason

4:45 pm

Ah, Nef. Whoever said 'Youth is wasted on the young'was right!

It would be great to have the energy & health back when we were young....

But, I salute the kids of today & have encouraged my 3 to spread their wings. I think they are the better of it! On an aside..... This grid is Horrible!

I sure don't miss the hangovers. But I miss the ability to get wasted without feeling like a centerarian the next day

4:50 pm

Soodle

Hi Jes

4:53 pm

Nef

Soodle, I gave up drinking years ago because I always "paid for it" the next day. I have an occasional glass of wine (3 or 4 times a year) but more than 1 drink & I'd be "hanging over" the toilet the whole next day; even when I was young.

As usual, when I'm chatting, I'm inclined to forget about the grid. Sorry Nef. Thanks for the clues :-)

Oh, Cross.... i cant wait to see OITNB!

5:06 pm

crosshair

5:06 pm

jesdraggon

5:09 pm

jesdraggon

5:10 pm

Soodle

Well, Jess - I'm not a big fan of political drama, but House of Cards is sublime. And, Cross... as I am now home alone for the summer, i am keeping OITNB, as a treat for myself for when I am feeling low. It'll surely cheer me uo!

You're welcome stidmama and hi there! Are you don with school for the year? I still have one more full week left :(

10:13 pm

jesdraggon

how's it, stiddy?

10:13 pm

jesdraggon

how's it, stiddy?

10:14 pm

crosshair

Was a temporary sort of thing, stidmama. I took time off to return to school for a few years.

10:14 pm

stidmama

yes, we finished last Tuesday. Good thing, I was about to collapse this year!

10:14 pm

stidmama

oh, I see -- well good for you then! :-D

10:14 pm

crosshair

:)

10:14 pm

jesdraggon

wow. the lag monster is eating my messages.

10:14 pm

stidmama

It IS, Jes -- thinking we are almost ready to rescue another critter. But not until next month or so, still need a fence!

10:15 pm

stidmama

How are you?

10:16 pm

jesdraggon

pretty well - only critters I currently have are cats (one sweet blind boy, and one enthusiastic calico with extra toes and an auto-immune disease).

10:16 pm

jesdraggon

You just missed the abandoned pomeranian

10:17 pm

stidmama

bummer - although poms are pretty hairy aren't they? need a lot of brushing?

10:18 pm

jesdraggon

yeah, small long-haired dogs. he was a mix, so not as woolly as a purebred.

10:20 pm

stidmama

did he find a good family?

10:21 pm

jesdraggon

yeah, the mother of one of my employees

10:21 pm

stidmama

:-)

10:22 pm

jesdraggon

what kind of critter will you be looking for?

10:23 pm

jesdraggon

You'd probably love Eli, but I expect you're still allergic to cats.

10:23 pm

stidmama

VERY allergic. MAkes me sad, since I like them, and they like me.

10:24 pm

stidmama

Canine, of course. There is a mix female who might be coming available locally in a few more weeks -- I have a friend who is at the local shelter. But puppies need to be weaned, of course.

10:24 pm

stidmama

I am actually going to hope for more than one though, since when I am teaching I am gone long hours.

10:26 pm

stidmama

But Tom isn't quite ready... fingers crossed he will be soon!

10:26 pm

jesdraggon

little? big? breed preference? age?

10:28 pm

stidmama

Has to not need regular "exercising" because of my mobility issues. Has to be good with other dogs (my parents' Murphy will visit). I don't care so much about breed or age, but would prefer a critter that doesn't have HUGE health issues... animals with food allergies however would fit right in! LOL

10:29 pm

stidmama

Oh, and one that won't chase cats. There are so many in the neighborhood.

10:29 pm

stidmama

oooh. I am halfway!

10:30 pm

stidmama

But I am patient... I know that the right pup will show up and we will be ready enough.

10:32 pm

jesdraggon

treadmills are great for exercising when you can't keep up with them :)

10:32 pm

stidmama

for REAL? I thought those were just youtube jokes!

10:33 pm

jesdraggon

no, they're great. I mean, you have to train them of course, but it's fantastic for high energy dogs in bad weather :)

10:34 pm

stidmama

hm. Something to consider!

10:35 pm

jesdraggon

I have to admit it's hugely hilarious to watch the corgi plow through the deep snow though.

10:37 pm

stidmama

I have seen photos of that. Too cute!

10:38 pm

jesdraggon

I emailed you a link to pictures of Eli :)

10:38 pm

stidmama

thanks *goes to look*

10:39 pm

stidmama

WOW. TOTES. If I were not allergic, I would drive over tonight!

10:41 pm

jesdraggon

he's just as sweet as he is cute too :)

10:41 pm

stidmama

Posted the link to fb in case someone on my list has room for him. He is precious. Any reason for the blindness?

10:41 pm

jesdraggon

retinal degeneration

10:42 pm

stidmama

oh - like glaucoma?

10:42 pm

stidmama

or like Macular ?

10:42 pm

jesdraggon

no, no pressure change or pain, just the retina doesn't work

10:43 pm

stidmama

oh, okay.

10:45 pm

stidmama

how are things otherwise? WEather clement? We were in Spokane for a reading conference in April, but time was a little tight.

10:46 pm

jesdraggon

so all the front of they eye is normal, but when the light hits the back it doesn't react or transmit signal

10:46 pm

jesdraggon

it's been nice - rainy, but we need it. Swamped at work, desperately need another doctor.

10:46 pm

stidmama

Was hoping to see you at some point this year. :-(

10:47 pm

stidmama

I wish you could find someone!

10:47 pm

jesdraggon

well, i'll try to find you a dog that I have to bring over :)

10:47 pm

11:29 pm

stidmama

LOL no worries Jes -- I am having trouble with allergies or a cold tonight. COmpletely fell apart for a few minutes. Time to look pitiful and request a hot lemonade, methinks.

11:30 pm
