{{hugs}} and good morning my darling sprite. hope your night was better than my day. endone day here, and lots of tears. i think i will have to go in for the overnight infusion without the other stuff happening. i am so sore and sick and tired of the pain acting up when all i do is walk about 30 feet.
2:06 am
sprite
please do, darling. I was kinda afraid of this. Go get that infusion. The rest can wait, but not this. You are hurting too much.
2:07 am
grannyrose
i'm getting to the point of stuff the coke/lemonade just give me the bottle of bourbon and a straw.
2:07 am
sprite
will you call and schedule first thing in the morning?
2:07 am
grannyrose
and i am having those brain fogs. it's really ghastly.
2:07 am
sprite
aw sweetie... I hear ya. Ready for the rubber hammer treatment. *hugs*
2:08 am
grannyrose
absolutely honey. now enough about me and my woes. how was your night? the first with Caya gone for a while.
2:08 am
grannyrose
and Rob? how's he holding up?
2:09 am
sprite
second one even. It was okayish. Awake a lot and in pain, but the dreams are bearable.
2:10 am
grannyrose
awww. hugs and kisses for my darling
2:10 am
sprite
rob came home last night, pretty ok, did a lot of work at Caya's. Leaving her was not easy for him. But he was ok.
2:11 am
sprite
oh my I found a compound
2:12 am
grannyrose
hard to realise that all your hard work as parents is paying off in spades. Caya CAN take care of herself. you have to be gentle with each other. and be open to be consoled and to console.
2:12 am
grannyrose
was it the water critter?
2:13 am
sprite
exactly. We are doing well with it, rose, we really are. I did a ton of work on my own room yesterday, and will do more today. Throwing away clutter that has accumulated for years.
2:13 am
grannyrose
good for you sweetie.
2:13 am
sprite
yes it was, lol. The one with the two enemies in one animal. Oh, beastly... we didn't have internet for almost a day! Our whole town didn't.
2:15 am
grannyrose
ugh for you. don has set up his old ASUS laptop for my use. we are still having some teething problems.
2:17 am
sprite
very frustrating. Am glad things were finally working again in time for our babble hour. Missed seeing you yesterday already.
2:17 am
grannyrose
for instance... we cannot turn of the pad so that only the mouse works.
2:17 am
sprite
oh my... that would bug me no end. I hate the pad. Am a mouse girl all the way.
2:22 am
grannyrose
i get halfway through typing something and look up to find the cursor is off having a party on it's own...loll
2:23 am

exactly. Stupid pads.

Lizlin
How are you and Don?
2:27 am
sprite
Caya left here ok, bit of tears but she was also looking forward to it. Rob went with her to help move and clean and assemble furniture etc. He came home yesterday evening and was ok. We both are. Missing her, though.
2:27 am
Lizlin
Of course you miss her but it's all part of growing up. But you know that.
2:28 am
grannyrose
don is fine... me ?? prolly better that you shouldn't ask. wishing very much that i was with you. :-(
2:28 am
sprite
yeah we know. All part of our job as parents ;)
2:28 am
sprite
rose is in a BAD place.
2:29 am

of course you don't. You will schedule first thing tomorrow, won't you?

2:34 am
grannyrose
but the baby hare isn't. i typed it lots of times.
2:35 am
Lizlin
Now that's a word I haven't heard for a long time!
2:35 am
sprite
so close to ov4 + ac8
2:35 am
grannyrose
btw is loverot when your ex-partner makes unreasonable demands?
2:35 am
sprite
not sure I know that word
2:35 am
sprite
lollll am adding it
2:36 am
Lizlin
Don't have ac 8 but did just find te 8
2:36 am
Lizlin
Wouldn't know, Rose!
2:36 am
grannyrose
ac8, someone who succeeds
2:36 am
grannyrose
and it's not a parrot
2:37 am
sprite
ah thanks Liz, another compound
2:37 am
Lizlin
What does the other begin with?
2:37 am
grannyrose
ca7, water critter
2:38 am
Lizlin
Will have to give that a bit more thought. Brain cells a bit tired!
2:39 am
sprite
frustration: when you finally spot a nasty vowel word like ocean and it turns out to be a phantom
2:39 am
grannyrose
*giggle*
2:39 am
grannyrose
oh my, laughing hard here
2:40 am

2:44 am
Lizlin
Stats for lone o, pls?
2:46 am
Lizlin
Sounds like I should've seen that already!
2:46 am
sprite
not a common word, but it is often in babble grids
2:47 am
sprite
quite a few words rhyming with not right. More than I initially thought.
2:48 am
Lizlin
Which led to me finding a few words.
2:49 am
sprite
and changing the vowel renders more
2:51 am
sprite
flies* even
2:52 am

2:53 am

Just saw your "doon" ha. My mother was from Tennessee and later Texas. Her whole family spoke that way. My mother was an attorney and when she moved to California she took elocution lessons so she wouldn't sound like a hick. Still, I swear she never uttered a terminal "w" in her life.

i've been down south only a few times but always enjoyed hearing the dialect. One of my favorite "new words" was "hit" -- as in, "Hit don't matter ah-tall!"
