2:21 am
grannyrose
day was successful. it was the community open house at our church today. cream of asparagus soup, and some very delish sandwiches made by the vicar's hubby. kerry baked up a storm, made some yummy scones and we had citrus cake, fresh fruit salad and icecream for afters. lots of laughter too
2:21 am
sprite
wow, sounds like my kind of shindig :D Glad it went well.
2:22 am
flosey

grannyrose

2:29 am
grannyrose

2:29 am
flosey
I peeked!! but who is roger?
2:30 am
grannyrose

2:30 am
sprite

grannyrose
*explosive laughter here*

2:53 am
grannyrose
what are your plans for today, sprite?
2:54 am
sprite
one tough phonecall to make, groceries to get, dinner to cook. Already walked terra and emptied the dishwasher.
2:55 am
grannyrose

2:56 am
sprite

2:58 am

2:59 am

3:00 am
grannyrose

3:00 am
sprite
hehehe good man
3:00 am
grannyrose
it's a little difficult to sleep properly with a lamp on.
3:01 am
sprite
that is true. He should read in the livingroom, not in bed if you want to sleep
3:08 am
grannyrose
i think i will have to stop watching the news. there is too much tragedy happening.
3:09 am
sprite
I never watch the news. Brings me down within seconds.
3:09 am
grannyrose
you have the right idea honey.
3:10 am
sprite
I had to. Best decision ever, to stop focusing on all the bad stuff in the world.
3:11 am
sprite
last word: se6/24. That was a new one for me.

ladycece920
just got here! How are you today Ruby?
6:07 am
emtiandeca
Hi rubyfoo
6:07 am
rubyfoo
I've been in and out all morning
6:07 am
emtiandeca
I am usually on this time of day but don't say much.
6:08 am
emtiandeca
How cold is it today?
6:08 am
rubyfoo
I don't blame you. When I come into the room, first thng in the morning, I just play and "listen"
6:09 am
emtiandeca
But it isn't long until everyone feels like family.
6:09 am
rubyfoo
It was cold this AM, but the sun has come out and I'm in fron of the fire
6:10 am
emtiandeca
We are still in the 80's during the day, thank goodness. About as cold as it gets is 25 in February. I love Georgia!
6:11 am
rubyfoo
When it warms up a little bit, I'll go outside and gtther pine cones for the fire and feed the fish in the pond
6:11 am
emtiandeca
What type of fish do you have in the pond?
6:11 am
emtiandeca
What type of fish do you have in the pond?
6:11 am
rubyfoo
It's about 50F at night (als in my bedroom) but warms up to 60-70 if the sun coe out
6:14 am
rubyfoo
We started with 23 "feeders" (what they were called in Florida), just ord inary red and gld tinies, but now there are 100's, some over a foot long
6:15 am
rubyfoo
And eggs must have come in with the aquatic plantts, because now there are black ones plus alll possible combinations
6:15 am
emtiandeca
Must be fun to watch them. I live on 9 acres of land out in the middle of nowhere. I love watching the deer in the backyard. Our agreement is that the ladies cannot be hunted but the boys are fair game.
6:16 am
rubyfoo
I ttried t sell some back to the store, but they weren't interested
6:16 am
emtiandeca
You can give them as gifts at Christmas!
6:17 am
rubyfoo
I'm in a small village (not pictureque) at the foothills of the Alps and have a beautiful view and about an acre
6:17 am
rubyfoo
or eat them, if thngs get tough
6:18 am
emtiandeca
I came from a small picturesque village in Vermont. I would rather live out here in the middle of nowhere.
6:18 am
emtiandeca
Bet they would be terrible bony.
6:19 am
rubyfoo
Thee are deer, wild boar foxes and mountain goats in the cliffs aabove the house, but no suirrels or rabbits, and the only wildlife I see are my dogs
6:20 am
rubyfoo
The pond was my husband's hobby, but noww that he's gone, I feed them and somebody comes occasionally to muck it out
6:21 am
rubyfoo
(sorry for the typos, but this keyboard is too quick for me!)
6:22 am
emtiandeca
The squirrels have pretty much moved out for the season. They grabbed the pecans and ran. We have had a rattlesnake (quickly deceased), a big black snake (died of lead poisoning) and a small rat snake (ventured into the house and met its demise) but no foxes or mountain goats. There are wild boar in the area but we haven't had them in our yard. We did have a coyote but I only saw him once.
6:23 am
emtiandeca
I always thought I would want a pond but learned how much work they really are. A great hobby though.
6:24 am
rubyfoo
I think the French have eaten all the squirrels and rabbits
6:24 am
rubyfoo
I don't do the work and it forces me to get out of the house, at least a little
6:25 am
rubyfoo
Do you grow vegetables and/or fruit?
6:28 am
emtiandeca
Our soil is so sandy that things don't grow well. We do grow tomatoes and jalapenos. I have an elderly male friend that has blueberries, pears, figs and grapes. I can't handle processing any more fruit than that!
6:30 am
rubyfoo
I planted a lot of fruit rees and shrubs when we came here and had a vegetabe garden, but now I only make red currant Jelly but pay somebody to pick them and eat th figs if they ripen (not every year)
6:32 am
rubyfoo
I gave up on vegetables except for tomatoes and whatever is left on the trees is for the birdds.
6:33 am
rubyfoo
You must love your climate after VT!
6:33 am
emtiandeca
I made a lot of jelly this year. I plan to sell it at the Christmas parade/gala, deduct my expenses and give the balance to our cancer group. They pay for fuel, food and lodging for residents in our county that are being treated for cancer. They can't take the whole load but they lighten it. This past year, they raised $100K, gave 40K to the cancer victims and 60K to cancer research at different Georgia universities and research centers.
6:35 am
rubyfoo
What a good cause! Nothing like that exists here
6:35 am
emtiandeca
I had to leave Vermont because of the cold weather. I have asthma and could not breathe. I have been here for 4 1/2 years and have not used anywhere near as much medicine to control my asthma as I had to use in Vermont and there I was always in crisis.
6:37 am
rubyfoo
I had no allegries before, but developed several serious food allergies after moving here and I wasn't young
6:38 am
emtiandeca
From what I understand, Evans County C.A.R.E.S. is very unique. There are other C.A.R.E.S. groups in Georgia but this one is very active. I went to their last dinner where they distributed the funds and the appreciation from the universities and research centers. One of the universities, which has a hospital, was able to tell what they had purchased with the money they received last year and the story of the man it saved. He proceeded to explain what they planned to buy this year. He said their belief is that this money is meant to purchase equipment that they could not otherwise afford rather than be used to offset their current budget. I have to agree.
6:40 am
rubyfoo
That sounds senssible and smart! Attitudes about health care are different here because of the vast gov't safety net (of which I'm not a part, sadly)
6:40 am
emtiandeca
I have had asthma my whole life. It didn't act up for years and then WHAM it came back with a vengeance. We had been to Georgia several times and I realized that I was not using as much medication when I came to visit here. It was worth a try. I am positive I only had a couple of years left at the rate I was going.
6:42 am
rubyfoo
My sister, who is asthmatic, lives in NY, but doesn't take good care of herself.
6:42 am
emtiandeca
I hear so many people complain about Obamacare in the States. I am so thankful for it. Otherwise, I would not have insurance at all. This state does not assist unless you are pregnant, a child or disabled. I am not old enough for Medicare, I could have taken disability but do not feel I am disabled. I can work and do work.
6:43 am
rubyfoo
I have no coverage but my recurrent cancer is treatable so, for now, I'm OK.
6:44 am
rubyfoo
Aside from that, I've never been sick with anything else, but perhaps why I've survived this long
6:44 am
emtiandeca
It is hard to take good care of yourself when you have asthma unless you can figure out your triggers. It took me many years. I actually joined the Vermont Lung Center and did studies with them trying to find relief. Encourage your sister to seek out asthma research. You get a lot of one on one and testing. Test meds are free.
6:45 am
rubyfoo
She's even older than I am and won't change her ways at this point. Shee's as stubborn as my chows!
6:46 am
emtiandeca
I am sorry to hear that you have no coverage. I am glad that you have been able to treat your cancer and pray it continues to be treatable.
6:47 am
rubyfoo
It was a big surprise when it came back after 25 tears but, fortunately, it is a very common type
6:49 am
emtiandeca
We all get more stubborn as we get older. I have an older sister that was in an abusive home situation with two of her adult sons (both pushing 40). She whined and whined about it. I was preparing to move her back to Massachusetts to a son's house that begged her to come there but she refused. After listening to another year of whining, I finally told her she had two choices: either accept it as her lot in life or do something about it but to quit yammering. She moved to Massachusetts the next month and is happier than she has been in 15 years.
6:49 am
rubyfoo
That's a good story.
6:50 am
emtiandeca
My dad had Hodkin's lymphoma in 1947, it was treated and went away. It returned in 1987 with a vengeance. We didn't catch it until it was too late.
6:50 am
rubyfoo
But 40 years, in thos days, was a long remission!
6:52 am
emtiandeca
Super long. He had been given 6 months in 1947. He lived every day like it was his last. All spare time was family time. If we didn't all do it, no one did it. My parents never fought (that we were aware of) and never spoke ill of each other. I think about how lucky I was to grow up in that house. We didn't have money but there was no doubt we had love.
6:53 am
rubyfoo
I think that background made you the strong woman you are now (from the little bit I knoow of you)
6:55 am
emtiandeca
Thank you for the kind words. And now my friend, I must get ready for work. I have enjoyed talking with you. Have a great day.

That's awful - hope you weren't affected too badly. Mosquitos are vicious! Well they are to me - seem to love my English blood. My hubby rarely gets bitten. I'm his best protection.
