2:33 am

grannyrose

{{hugs}} and good morning dearest sprite. can i sleep at your house tonight.....pleeeeese ?

2:33 am

sprite

*hugs rose* Sweetie, always. I will boot Rob from his and make up the bed with fresh linen. Whazzup, darling?

2:34 am

grannyrose

i'll sleep on the couch, i'll even sleep in the cupboard under the sink.

2:34 am

sprite

oh, that one is always free, lol. Tell me.

2:35 am

grannyrose

oh dear where do i begin? don has been fiddling with a new programme for his phone. it has culminated with him pulling the wretched thing apart.

2:35 am

sprite

lollllll omg, men and their toys... and now his mood is beastly?

2:36 am

grannyrose

he has damaged some piece of glass and thrown it out in disgust. he is now pleading with firefox to please open AND respond.

2:36 am

sprite

*giggles* Nothing you can do about it, my poor darling. Just keep breathing. And mutter 'there, there' every now and then. A cup of tea/coffee or a glass of wine might work too.

2:37 am

grannyrose

*rolling eyes* why can't they just be satisfied with what they have and leave things alone.

2:37 am

grannyrose

what? poured over his head?

2:37 am

grannyrose

or was the wine for me?

2:39 am

sprite

I hear ya! And if it doesn't work, just keep their temper and not blow up like a spoilt kid, lol. I mean... I was up at 3 tonight. And this morning my teeny tiny silicone lens for the smartphone fell on the floor and has been absolutely unfindable ever since. And I looked. Trust me, I looked. And then I found a note from Tim explaining why he had not done the kitchen yet... but am I in a rotten mood? Nah.

2:39 am

grannyrose

or i could pour a cup of tea in his left ear, a cup of coffee in his right ear, then give his head a good shake.

2:39 am

sprite

definitely wine for you. Or bourbon. This might be a bourbon day.

2:40 am

grannyrose

ugh on the kitchen and was his excuse plausible?

2:41 am

sprite

yeah it was. His girlfriend had an emotional crisis and he spent some hours sitting with her and comforting her. So... I just did the kitchen for him, for 85%. Reward for being a decent person and for communicating well.

2:41 am

grannyrose

how annoying re lens !!

2:42 am

sprite

yeah it is a miracle. The wrong kind, lol. I mean, it fell down. How far can it go, right? Should be within the room at the very least. But nooooo. It has disappeared mid-air, I guess. Off to the planet where the lost ballpoints and single socks live.

2:42 am

grannyrose

can you have the lens replaced? well, he is indeed learning...

2:43 am

sprite

yeah I can, but such a waste of money :(

2:43 am

grannyrose

*gigles* have you checked your big toe? it might be stuck there.

2:44 am

sprite

honey, my big toe, all the other toes, my decolletÃ©, all the folds of my nightgown, soles of my feet, and every inch of the floor... swept the floor with my bare hands.

2:45 am

grannyrose

oh, on top of everything don is fiddling with, i have had to remind him that there is shopping to be done. he has known this since breakfast time, and it is now peak traffic flow heading home.

2:46 am

grannyrose

you know you are going to find it in the last place you look don't you?

2:46 am

sprite

*grins* you are making him go alone, right? Shopping list in hand, and you will not answer the phone until he is back home. He can rage in the car on his way home then.

2:46 am

zoozzoom

Just popping in to say hello ladies but need to go as there is a bank holiday boot sale on and I am being given a lift. Sprite if you put a pair os leg stockings over the vacuum head it will pick up bits but not go up the vacuum..you might be able to find your lens that way. Bye for now..and good luck *poof*

2:47 am

grannyrose

what was that blur?

2:47 am

sprite

good tip! *hugs zooz* Have a great day, dear man.

2:47 am

sprite

zoofzoof it was zoozzoom the zoomzoom

2:48 am

grannyrose

SUPER ZOOZZOOM!!! higher than a leaping building, faster than a locomotive...

2:48 am

sprite

is it a bird? Is it a plane?

2:49 am

grannyrose

maybe it is a mix.... lolll

2:49 am

grannyrose

hope someone tells him he has his jocks on the outside....

2:50 am

sprite

he will be starting a new fad

2:50 am

sprite

tsk what a waste of a perfectly good Q

2:50 am

grannyrose

omg... don is saying he has to throw his phone into the bin. please, please hide me.

2:51 am

sprite

just let him, honey. You can even open the bin for him

2:51 am

grannyrose

giggling very quietly so he doesn't hear.

2:51 am

sprite

;)

2:52 am

grannyrose

i'll open the door too, and then lock it behind him. for heavens sake !!

2:53 am

sprite

you know Don and his temper. In a few hours he will have cooled down and be awkwardly sorry-ish.

2:54 am

grannyrose

yeah i know. now he is muttering about the internet which i might add is working fine for me. and he has icons missing and in their place icons he has never seen.

2:55 am

sprite

want to see him go ballistic? Just whisper "malware" close to his ear.

2:56 am

grannyrose

hang on..... i'll find a long piece of plastic tubing, then i'll do that.

2:56 am

sprite

lollll

2:57 am

sprite

I do understand his frustration. Just wish he could handle it a little bit more mature, grin.

2:59 am

grannyrose

ah well. it has been quite entertaining, AND i have maintained inner calm[sort of].

2:59 am

sprite

oh my I found a 9

2:59 am

grannyrose

so what's on your agenda for today?

3:00 am

sprite

good for you, honey.

3:00 am

grannyrose

whoot whoot!! yayay sprite

3:01 am

sprite

mwah, don't know yet. I am so so tired from all the broken nights. I might take a long nap this afternoon. For the rest... some cleaning, walking terra, laundry as always, maybe fitness if I can find the motivation.

3:01 am

grannyrose

and you will be so proud of me. i have made appointment with ortho doc re hips which the MRI shows that at least one of the tendons is non-existent. also organised appointment for card readout from CPAP ready for respiratory doc in 6 weeks.

3:02 am

sprite

3:03 am

grannyrose

3:04 am

grannyrose

how about support bras for cows?

3:04 am

sprite

3:05 am

grannyrose

3:06 am

grannyrose

3:23 am

grannyrose

3:23 am

sprite

3:25 am

grannyrose

grannyrose

roflol

3:27 am

grannyrose

3:28 am

sprite

in a bucket, a bucket... :D

3:28 am

sprite

you could do the tin can trick with buckets. Just bind them together with really elastic rope

3:29 am

grannyrose

don't tempt me.... at full stretch i will let my end go.... thump

3:30 am

sprite

solves the whole problem. He won't be able to feel his head hurt anymore, and he won't be needing a phone.

3:33 am

grannyrose

i cannot believe it. not one of the contestants knew coleridge's first name

3:33 am

sprite

When I want you in my arms
When I want you and all your charms
Whenever I want you, all I have to do is

3:34 am

sprite

3:34 am

grannyrose

3:41 am

grannyrose

sprite

3:49 am

3:50 am

6:06 am

grannyrose

6:08 am

grannyrose

dosef, how long have you been 'clean' of the dr5ed C?

6:08 am

rubyfoo

I've started using my stationary bike ad love it except that the seat is uncomfortable

6:08 am

rubyfoo

next stop, le Tour!!!

6:08 am

doseffing

... My wife is being extremely hypocritical about them ... when they're in the cupboard she runs around screaming and shouting at them ... but when I but the glue sheet traps down to catch them she wants me to take them outside and cut them off so we can let them go ... of course she won't do it herself

6:08 am

grannyrose

ruby, have you a gel pack you could use?

6:09 am

doseffing

... it's a rule ... all bicycle seats must be uncomfortable

6:09 am

rubyfoo

To sit on? My helper has gone to the sports store to look for a child's seat or/and padded pants

6:10 am

rubyfoo

But this is really painful!

6:10 am

grannyrose

*giggle* either that or pad out your knickers.

6:10 am

doseffing

... the pants are your better bet ... child seats turn out to be just as uncomfortable in the long run

6:12 am

rubyfoo

Happily, I like the exercise and it re**ly makes me pant

6:13 am

grannyrose

my MRI confirmed one of my hip tendons has been torn off the bone. and a protective 'ruffle' on one bone has been pulled half off. i really don't understand why workcover cannot see the link between my fall and the damage in my hips. *sigh*

6:13 am

rubyfoo

One of "my" mice is bigger than the others and has auburn fur, very cute

6:13 am

doseffing

... that's what counts ... ... just make sure you keep yourself hydrated

6:14 am

rubyfoo

My oncologist will be happy

6:14 am

grannyrose

good for you ruby.

6:15 am

rubyfoo

That sounds very painful, rosie!

6:15 am

6:26 am

rubyfoo

locally, they call them "aoutats"

6:26 am

doseffing

... you're sure it's not a circulation problem in your lower legs? ... that's what my chemo set off

6:27 am

rubyfoo

no, the bites are everywhere, in clusters

6:27 am

rubyfoo

They look like hives but aren't and they're not bedbugs which leave traces

6:29 am

rubyfoo

I was lucky with my chemo; beyond hair loss, it was easy -- unfortnately it didn't stop the cancer from coming back, all these years later

6:29 am

doseffing

... and fl4/7 would be in the grid too ...

6:29 am

rubyfoo

I thought of that, too, but I've never seen one of my light-colored dogs

6:31 am

9:35 am

aebmusica

hi crossy

9:38 am

Judi

Hiyas, kiddos!

9:40 am

crosshair

Not quite yet. Here, the kids do not go back to school till the 6th, then we have peace--sort of, from September till there is snow on the ski hill.

9:40 am

crosshair

gives us a chance to clean up all the garbage :(

9:41 am

crosshair

Especially at the beach

9:41 am

doseffing

... well you know Toronto ... ya gotta ship the garbage somewhere

9:42 am

crosshair

I wonder what they would think if we left it all laying there for them for next may 24? lol

9:42 am

doseffing

... actually ... I was in New York and on Long Island last week and there is far less litter on the roads and beaches than there is in Toronto and even in Durham region

9:42 am

doseffing

... they probably wouldn't notice anymore

9:43 am

crosshair

I do not think Torontonians know how to use a garbage can..

9:43 am

doseffing

... not any more

9:43 am

doseffing

... we used to pride ourselves on a clean and tidy city ,,, but not now

9:44 am

MLFAN17

hello again all

9:44 am

crosshair

When we ran our little cottages in Wasaga Beach, every day we had to groom our part of the beach for syringes, glass, dirty diapers and regular garbage.

9:45 am

MLFAN17

First LA 5/14?

9:45 am

doseffing

... past tense of to load up

9:46 am

MLFAN17

isn't that a 5/12?

9:46 am

crosshair

not to mention beer bottles, beer cans, and other booze bottles

9:46 am

doseffing

... nope ... it's a past tense of a 4.5

9:47 am

doseffing

... at least you can make money on the beer bottles etc. ...

9:49 am

MLFAN17

you are right ty got it

9:49 am

crosshair

We used to hire kids for that part of it--once we got rid of the broken glass/syringes etc. We would hire two teens and they would spend all day filling the back of our truck with empties. We did not pay them anything but typically each kid would go home with about 200-300 dollars

9:49 am

crosshair

took them all day too

9:50 am

MLFAN17

is FL 7 a pl?

9:50 am

crosshair

We were too busy rebuilding the cottages :(

9:51 am

doseffing

... a friend bought a restaurant in Brooklin and we used to ride the bus up for dinner ... I could pick up enough bottles at the bus stop to pay for half the tip ...

9:51 am

doseffing

... you won't like the fl7 .... ... more like a fire

9:52 am

MLFAN17

extension of the fl 5/18?

9:53 am

crosshair

1989-1992 we ran them used to take 1000 dollar damage deposit and a 100 dollar key deposit. I can only recall a handful of time where we could give both back at the end of a groups stay :/

9:53 am

doseffing

... yeah ... it's the comparative of the adjective form which I really don't believe exists

9:54 am

crosshair

Sounds funny to me as well

9:54 am

MLFAN17

stupid word

9:54 am

Judi

Yeah. That Fl7 is a stretch. I could use it in a sentence: That drag queen is fl7 than the other drag queen.

9:55 am

Judi

Apologies to Ru Paul.

9:55 am

A great youtube video "Gene Wilder on Willy Wonka Remake, Young Frankenstein, Mel Brooks, and more" is a great talk with Robert Osborne about his career

3:33 pm

MollyL

I thought he was great as Willy Wonka, but his funny stuff like "Silver Streak" and "Young Frankenstein" were my favorites. Those scenes in "Silver Streak" where he tries to pass for a black man are hysterical.

A Google search on "Geller bend spoons" will help if you don't understand that reference.
