MollyL

Best of luck Matty

3:34 am

mattygroves

Thank you! I'm not 100% certain the job's for me - parts of it are right up my alley, but there's a fair amount of people management, which I hate, and I suck at

3:35 am

sprite

you may surprise yourself. And either way, they are lucky to have you aboard.

3:35 am

mattygroves

Well, we'll see how the interview goes ;)

3:36 am

sprite

:) It will be good, no matter how it ends. Either they realise the treasure that you are and are eager to have you, or they are stupid and blind and you are better off not working there at all ;)

4:04 am

4:06 am

sprite

good for you. And make sure himself is contributing to it too.

4:08 am

sprite

I stopped on the way home yesterday and picked up a lot of nice pebbles to paint. Cleaned them yesterday and now they are sitting in this little crate, waiting for me to spend some creative juices on.

rubyfoo

Yay, a big grid on a day when I don't have to do anything!

5:20 am

MollyL

On the other side of that spectrum, it is the day before Thanksgiving. A big grid on a day when I have to do LOTS of things. : D

5:21 am

rubyfoo

No Thanksgiving here (said ruefully), my first as a widow.

5:22 am

MollyL

Yeah, the first round of holidays as a widow are hard. I remember that. It gets a little better after you get through those.

5:23 am

rubyfoo

It's funny because I didn't grieve properly at first but I'm OK

5:23 am

MollyL

I don't think there is such a thing as "grieving properly". Everyone does it in their own way, in their own time.

5:24 am

rubyfoo

I know

5:29 am

sukee

Good morning

5:29 am

rubyfoo

Hello, Sukee

5:30 am

sukee

Hi Ruby.

5:31 am

ivesy3

we also grieve for those alive and are lost to us..and our heart breaks too.

5:31 am

sukee

Well, winter has arrived. Although, we are not too bad here. Western NY got hit hard with snow last week but we missed it.

5:34 am

sukee

I used to really look forward to Christmas but after my mother died it lost a lot of appeal. Especially since the rest of my family lives either out west or in Scotland. Now, I look forward to it because of Doctor Who :)

5:37 am

rubyfoo

((Ivesy))

5:37 am

ivesy3

good morning all..

rubyfoo

I've been looking for it, also the n next to it

6:02 am

Lizlin

6:02 am

rubyfoo

sukee

doseffing

6:05 am

Lizlin

6:05 am

sukee

Oh well, we didn't get it so bad, look at NY :)

6:05 am

Lizlin

Sorry for you though, as I sit here at gone 10 pm in a Tshirt!

6:05 am

rubyfoo

Starks? ((dose))

6:05 am

Lizlin

Game of Thrones, Ruby

6:05 am

lynxxx

6:06 am

doseffing

... Game of Thrones .... family motto ... Winter is coming

6:06 am

sukee

I do dread going outside this morning, at least I get door to door service.

6:06 am

Lizlin

Hi Lyn

6:06 am

sukee

And I refuse to wear my boots until there is snow on the ground...

6:06 am

lynxxx

Hi. Tried watching that once - the violent sex really turned me off

6:07 am

rubyfoo

hello Lynxx, that's what I wonderred, thought of migrating storks....

6:07 am

sukee

I don't get HBO so have never seen it.

6:07 am

Lizlin

I read the books well before it was aired on TV, so I'm enjoying the series.

6:07 am

doseffing

... gets boring after a while ... struggled through the first book and two chapters into the second ... and stopped

6:08 am

sukee

Well, looks like I have to go brush my teeth and get ready to go out :)

6:08 am

sukee

Have a great day all.

6:08 am

doseffing

... lots of people enjoy it ... Think Dallas with swords and witches

6:08 am

Lizlin

Have a good day

6:09 am

Lizlin

Down to 62 here - think I'll come back and attack again tomorrow. Enjoy your days everyone. Sleep well, Lyn.

6:09 am

rubyfoo

6:09 am

rubyfoo

6:09 am

lynxxx

6:14 am

rubyfoo

bye dose

6:15 am

lynxxx

there is a op6.21 but its plural comes from that corner

6:28 am

MollyL

no 9/54

6:29 am

rubyfoo

I'll have to chew on that for a while

6:30 am

MollyL

A clue for the corner o...most of what you go see at The Met + not off, plural

6:31 am

rubyfoo

thanks, Molly

6:34 am

Trifioso

good morning friends! Feeling HIGHLY smug - nbt in 25

6:34 am

rubyfoo

Hello Trif

6:35 am

Trifioso

hello ruby. this is the quiet in the storm of my day...wish it could last for hours....

6:36 am

rubyfoo

Very quiet here

6:37 am

Trifioso

school has a half day today, each class for 26 minutes. The students are wild, flying high....I have SO much to do to get ready for thanksgiving tomorrow, 100% due to me being a procrastinating nightmare

6:40 am

MollyL

If I procrastinated when it came to Thanksgiving my clan would be eating a bucket of Kentucky Fried Chicken for dinner. : D

6:40 am

Trifioso

looking pretty good to me right about now, molly! I have all the shopping done, it's just a matter of getting it all together, firing up the flamethrower, and cleaning the house. I HATE cleaning. And it shows

6:42 am

MollyL

I tried to get reservations one year at this lovely inn at the base of a mountain, but I was too late. You have to make them WAY in advance. I was trying to give myself a "Thanksgiving off".

6:43 am

Trifioso

I need to chill out and remember that it is about the family and getting everyone together and such. if there are a few dust bunnies here and there I will be embarrassed and sorry, but that's all. and that's what will have to be, and I have to get over the standards I hold myself against.

6:44 am

MollyL

That is the best way to approach it. Most people don't notice have the "unclean things" that you do.

6:44 am

Trifioso

oohhhhh trust me - there are two people in my life that absolutely do. And I am trying to accept that that is their issue, and to forgive myself.

6:45 am

MollyL

Hey, if they are that anal about cleanliness, let THEM host Thanksgiving. : D

6:45 am

Trifioso

I think I am feeling extra pressure because this is the first year we are truly doing the blended family thing - all valentine's kids AND mine will be there. But this is who I am.

6:45 am

rubyfoo

or offer to come the day before to help

6:46 am

Trifioso

as I get older I realize I really do hate cleaning. My house isn't "dirty" but it is cluttered....and I live that way. Sue me.

6:46 am

Trifioso

my girls are home, and they WILL pitch in and help, but I need to remember to stay pleasant and not turn into a stress bag. Who does that help? Does not make for a pleasant visit for ANYONE

6:51 am

Trifioso

and that's the bell....have a happy day everyone

6:52 am

bichon

I went to the local store and they were out of fresh cranberries [I think because of thedrought]

I don't know how people keep up with who does Daylight Savings and who doesn't.

4:41 pm

Lizlin

We live quite near the border with New South Wales - they do have daylight saving. Very confusing if we go to friends there - have to be specific about which time it is. The airport serves both areas too. You have to know that it works on Queensland time.

4:42 pm

MollyL

<---Also doesn't know what Qld means

4:42 pm

periwinkle

that would make me nuts, liz

4:42 pm

Lizlin

QLD - Queensland. NSW - New South Wales - everything is abbreviated :)

4:42 pm

Lizlin

Fireworks!

4:46 pm

periwinkle

will have to go to list soon I do not want to be sitting here all evening

4:46 pm

penquis

no, lynx....we have four time zones...not counting Alaska and Hawaii....

4:48 pm

lynxxx

we are similar size land mass wise and we have 3 or 4 time zones so quite similar then

4:50 pm

penquis

yes...

4:59 pm

Gillie

In Canada, Newfoundland has a time zone half an hour later than any other. For years, we were accustomed to hearing on CBC radio that a national show was on at a certain time, and "half an hour later in Newfoundland".

5:00 pm

Gillie

We do have other time zones, obviously, but I guess a radio show couldn't start on the half hour.

5:01 pm

Gillie

Then there's Saskatchewan, which has sensibly decided to ignore daylight-savings time.

5:02 pm

lynxxx

obviously they have stubborn cows set in their ways too

5:02 pm

penquis

i think there are parts of Arizona that don't observe daylight saving time....

5:03 pm

doseffing

... which of course means for eight months they're on the same time as Manitoba which borders them on the east and for the other four months they're on the same time as Alberta which borders them on the west... ... no cows ... just wheat and canola

5:08 pm
