VolleymomDee
LOL
12:45 am

but the grid is not the source of my frustration
12:47 am
rururocks
What is?
12:49 am
VolleymomDee
fireworks
12:49 am
hurshy
the source of my frustration is this. i have two sisters. one of them, and i, are both major pet lovers, who do not have children, and we purchase health insurance for our pets. our other sister has 2 kids, a cat, and a dog. she is more... old school when it comes to pets. they are nice but don't want to spend too much on them. the dog is new, only had him for a little over 2 months, and he's probably like 6-7 months old. so today due to a very bad combination of circumstances, the poor pup got hit by a car, and both his front legs are broken (which i gotta say is much less bad a set of injuries than one would fear in such a case). best option is surgery to put in pins that can help make sure the bones heal right, but she can also opt to just have him in splints and hope it heals well. so now i've been delegated to raise money in a crowdfunding manner from our extended family. and i'm like, GAH. INSURANCE.
12:50 am
rururocks
Oh god
12:51 am
VolleymomDee
wow
12:52 am

sammysmom
i understand hurshy... a few days ago we had to have our beloved sammy put to sleep. he was attacked by an owl we think his jaw was crushed and he had puncture wounds.. it happened in our own bak yard it was absol;utely terrible.. we had his put to sleep while we all fried .. to much to go into detail here.. we had him cremated... the total for the ordeal was t500
12:54 am
hurshy
well this is the thing though - i can't stop people from getting pets if they aren't the same kind of person as me when it comes to that thing. and honestly, unfortunately, there are far WORSE homes out there for pets than hers. i try not to think about all the homeless pets and all the pets who aren't cared for as well as i would like...
12:54 am
sammysmom
500 doollars htat is and it had to be paid at the time of services
12:55 am
sammysmom
i also hat it whern people get pets and just let them go. a pet is like a child you ARE responsible for them
12:55 am
rururocks
I will trade you pet expenses sammy
12:57 am
hurshy

12:57 am
sammysmom

Hello all - we also have a 14 year old Chucky cat - a red tabby - age and wet damp weather is getting to him :(
1:02 am
hurshy
do you have him on glucosamine? fabulous for arthritis
1:03 am
sammysmom
right hursh... chuck and i each have opur glucosaine..../ i don t get greenies tho
1:03 am
ursh
no but will get him some - cat with serious attitude and difficult to medicate - has also developed quite a noticeable twitch
1:04 am
hurshy
glucosamine comes in many forms ursh - treats, capsules you can open to sprinkle powder, or liquid bacon-flavor that can be mixed with food
1:06 am
ursh
tx hurshy will make enquries - it is early summer here and Durban is very humid and we have had loads of rain - the damp is really affecting him
1:06 am
sammysmom
people who are owned by pets are a special breed i think.. i am amazed at the outpouring of empathy and understanding we have had during our recent troubles
1:07 am
hurshy
well i should try to get some sleep - laterz all
1:07 am
ursh
we are owned by 5 cats - only Chucky is ours the others were taken because owners could no longer keep them

Our time change was a week ago, very annoying to coordinate with family etc

As for our animals -- they are our children
2:22 am

I will see if I caan get glucosaine for younger dog who has arthritis in one knee

good morning all
2:52 am
grannyrose
{{hugs}} and good morning dear friends. how was your yesterday sprite? were you able to recuperate a little? xoxox
2:54 am
sprite
*hugs rose* You won't believe it... in the afternoon, my beloved wanted to go to Amsterdam, to the Albert Cuyp market, and I decided to come along. Walked the entire market and back, and only on the last 100 m I was really really hurting. I was so darn proud, lol. And it was fun, and good being together doing something fun.
2:54 am
grannyrose
how wonderful sprite. you are my hero, honey.
2:55 am
sprite
we took a break with coffee halfway. And Rob found a wax coat... a real one, original, with even the bands on the inside to keep the flaps from... well... flapping, when you ride a horse... for only 50 euro!
2:56 am
grannyrose
good buy.... wtg Rob
2:56 am
sprite
awww what a very sweet thing to say :) How was your day, sweetie? How is the darn nerve behaving?
2:57 am
grannyrose
not too bad today, but i have been up and running about a bit. little Arthur is really responding to me now. he runs and gives me a hug and kiss.
2:57 am
sprite
yeah we couldn't really miss 50 euro from our budget, but this was a too good opportunity to miss. I'll budget down some more and make it happen :D
2:59 am
sprite
that is so precious, Rose. And I think... well, at least it is that way for me... that the way things like this feed our souls outweighs the toll it takes on our bodies. We can manage pain. We don't manage missing out on what life makes worth living that well.
3:00 am
grannyrose
after church we stayed and chatted a while with the vicar. i was able to express my concern that she is on the go 24/7. and she isn't exactly a spring chicken either.
3:01 am
sprite
good for you. She needs a bit of care just as much as the ones she takes care of.
3:07 am
sprite
not sure if you are still with me, honey... I will be leaving in 10 mins to go to my volunteer job. First time with one of my two official students I am to be a mentor for.
3:11 am
grannyrose
okay sweetie. trying to sort dinner. not much of an appetite here.
3:12 am
sprite
pain tends to kill appetite, alas. I hope you can manage at least some food. And keep up the fluids at the very least. *hugs* my darling. Will keep you in my heart and prayers.
3:13 am

as you are in mine, dear.{{hugs}}

4:51 am

Ah hah! Thanks Dipp!
4:52 am

NBS - still no 8s though
4:54 am
Dippnall
op 8/45 - don't have the other
4:56 am
sukee
slow going but nbt :)
4:57 am
mattygroves
It is slow going. Still looking for that OP though
4:58 am
Soodle
Double vowel on the end of op6/21, Matty
4:59 am
mattygroves
OK, I shall look for the op621 :)
4:59 am
Soodle
Your choice ;-)
4:59 am
mattygroves
Oh lordy, I feel silly. Hit me with a wet fish, please
5:02 am
sukee
does that op start with the op 4/5?
5:04 am
MollyL
Hint: Your choice was a clue for op6
5:05 am
sukee
Ty, got the op 6 :)
5:05 am
sukee
and got the 8 :)
5:06 am
sukee
seems so simple now
5:07 am
MollyL
I have a hard time seeing words that go up-down-up
5:07 am
mattygroves
And once you see that suffix, a number of other words fall into place.
5:14 am
Soodle
Another glorious day here. Blue skies, gentle breeze, the colours are spectacular this year.
5:15 am
sukee
Hi there. Mild here, still dark :)
5:16 am
sukee
I made a miscalculation. I thought the extra hour would mean the cats wouldn't bother me early. Silly me, instead of 5:30 it was 4:30 :)
5:17 am
Soodle
11.15 am here. Off soon to take my wheelchair bound mother to visit my wheelchair bound father. I have discovered that, like licking your own elbow, pushing 2 wheelchairs at the one time is impossible!
5:18 am
sukee
I can see that.
5:19 am
MollyL
Animals have an internal clock that has little to do with man-made oddities like Daylight Savings Time. I am the same way, the internal clock rules.
5:20 am
sukee
I would be very happy if the time changes went away.
5:21 am
sukee
At least it won't be pitch black when I leave the house at 7AM tomorrow
5:21 am
MollyL
The funny thing is, the way the light hours change happens all on its own. We just force the issue.
5:22 am
Soodle
I agree. Its a bit daft changing the clocks.
5:22 am
MollyL
It will be lighter when I leave at 6:45 tomorrow. This rollback of the clocks gives me extra light in the morning and less in the evening.
5:25 am
sukee
Okay, just over halfway, time for breakfast. Take care all.

agreed deeha - fbi is so anti hillary I don't see how it could be anything but a setup

that and that one of the cities in a pro hillary state is in the midst of a transit strike, but nobody has taken any steps to extend voting hours in compensation

I guess employers in the states are not obligated to give their employees 2 hours off to vote like we do

Hi m9, how are you tonight?
7:45 pm
m9f9l
What icon do I have showing?
7:46 pm
Nef
I haven't refreshed, so I see a dog here (but your profile shows a little kid. I'll refresh & see if it changes)
7:47 pm
Nef
Now I see the child here! Who is it?
7:48 pm
m9f9l
That is Grandchild #3! I've had THREE since starting babble! LOL
7:49 pm
Nef
LOL! You should update your profile then; it says your first grandchild was recently born
7:50 pm
Nef
(BTW, I like the curly hair on #3. My kids had stick straight hair; & so does my grandson.)
7:51 pm
m9f9l
I have two children with curls..my girls. And my two boys are straight.. well, one is balding.
7:52 pm
m9f9l
Number 3 was born in our house. THey're all living with us at the moment.
7:52 pm
Trifioso
hello friends
7:53 pm
Nef
ALL? As in all of your kids & grandkids? or what?
7:53 pm
Nef
Hi Trifi; how are you doing tonight?
7:53 pm
m9f9l
Yes.. ALL. Ten of us.
7:53 pm
Trifioso
I am fine nef, trying to gather myself for the week ahead.
7:53 pm
m9f9l
One...little...bathroom....
7:54 pm
Trifioso
wow m9! that is one happy full house! we lived with my mum for about 4 and a half months after my last child was born and renovations were being done on our house, and it was happy, and crazy, and all sorts
7:54 pm
Nef
Oh my.That must be "interesting" (do you have bathroom schedules?)
7:54 pm
m9f9l
My daughter does most of the dinners, so that's nice!
7:55 pm
m9f9l
No.. it all works out.. we just make sure we ask if anyone needs it soon when we're going to take a shower.
7:55 pm
Trifioso
how old are the grands?
7:56 pm
m9f9l
4 will be 5 in Jan. 2 will be 3 in a week or so, and 1 just had his first bday last week.
7:56 pm
Nef
Our son & grandson will be moving back in with us in January. He's trying to buy a house, but can't save enough because his rent is too high; so I told him to move in with us for a year & save that $ for a down payment
7:57 pm
Trifioso
very, very fun ages m9
7:57 pm
Trifioso
that is great nef, if you are really happy with it?
7:57 pm
m9f9l
Exactly! Just makes sense. They're paying off student loans and such.
7:57 pm
Trifioso
and if son can be diligent about saving
7:58 pm
m9f9l
It's boy, girl, boy.
7:58 pm
m9f9l
my daughter and her husband are VERY budget conscious.
7:59 pm
Nef
There were 9 of us while I was growing up (6 kids, my aunt & uncle, & my grandmother). But we had 2 bathrooms & a shower in the basement; & back then no one bathed more than once a week.
8:00 pm
m9f9l
Did your parents pass away?
8:00 pm
Trifioso
I think whatever works for each family is whatever works. I don't know how young kids do it these days, with student loans, copays, etc
8:00 pm
m9f9l
(and I'm the youngest of nine children...that's where the 9 in my name comes from, LOL)
8:00 pm
Nef
My hubby says he's going to ask our son to pay us his rent $$ so that he will save it up
8:01 pm
Trifioso
that's a great idea nef!!!!
8:01 pm
m9f9l
Yeah, we're having lots of convo here about wages, health care, etc. My daughter is filling out her ballot, LOL
8:02 pm
Trifioso
I had a wonderful surprise this weekend - got to see bob Newhart do a one man stand up sort of thing in boston!!! it was so amazing to see him live, after so many years of being a fan
8:02 pm
m9f9l
WOW! Love him.
8:03 pm
m9f9l
Was it hilarious?
8:03 pm
Trifioso
he was charming, and totally politically incorrect because he is SO old school, and hilarious and silly, and everything you would expect, and more.
8:04 pm
Nef
Our son has managed to set aside about 1/2 of the price of a down payment; but he buys things impulsively (like a $50 yoyo!); so I'm pretty sure he's going to have a really nice down payment within a year.
8:04 pm
Nef
That sounds really neat, Trifi!
8:04 pm
Trifioso
the stories!!! he showed video clips and spoke about being on dean martin's show, what ed Sullivan was like, did a cut off his first comedy album, oh it was great
8:05 pm
m9f9l
One of the most hilarious moments ever was the finale of Newhart.
8:05 pm
Trifioso
that's how he closed the show!!!! he showed that clip and spoke about how mental everyone went over it
8:05 pm
m9f9l
A $50 yoyo?!?!?
8:05 pm
Trifioso
your son sounds like a good guy, nef
8:06 pm
Nef
Yup. AND he says that was half price!
8:06 pm
m9f9l
Ooohhh.. does he have a slinky? I found out about the neatest thing to do with a slinky.
8:08 pm
m9f9l
just one more word
8:09 pm
Nef
I don't know if he does; I know that my grandson broke 1 recently ... (do Not step on a slinky when you think it's going to fall off a ledge)
8:10 pm
Nef
Go, m9!! You can do it!
8:12 pm
m9f9l
and it was the on4. Sheesh.
8:12 pm
hurshy
that's the kind of grid this is
8:12 pm
Nef
YAY, m9!!!! WTG!!!
8:16 pm
Trifioso
hi hurshy, and congrats m9
8:19 pm
Trifioso

8:20 pm
Nef

8:21 pm
Trifioso

8:22 pm
Nef
(I'm looking for it again, now Trifi. I gave up on it a while ago; but am now searching again
8:24 pm
m9f9l
