12:46 am

good evening, flosey *hug*
Rose and Don arrived safely yesterday.
12:46 am
flosey

12:46 am
sprite
*hugs Liz*
Lol, not exhausted, but yes, lots of laughter, tears and hugs. They are wonderful people.
12:47 am
Lizlin
I knew you'd love them - in person, I mean. How was their journey?
12:47 am
sprite
we are, flosey. It is incredible to have them here at last. And it feels so familiar, like we have known eachother forever.
12:48 am
flosey
wonderful, Sprite
12:48 am
sprite
the first stretch was bad, old airplane, bad airconditioning, hot, lots of crying babies. Second stretch was very good, though.
12:48 am
Lizlin
Well you have - through babble and through chats.
12:48 am
Lizlin
Sounds like a tough 14 hours they had :(
12:48 am
sprite
very true, Liz. And the reality is even better.
12:49 am
sprite
and you, flosey and Liz? How was your day? And how are you?
12:49 am
Lizlin
btw, Sprite. Hubby says thanks for the info you sent. He'd forgotten about that and is happy to have had his memory jo 6
12:50 am

Good day thanks, though it's turned pretty cold here (well for us anyway)
12:50 am

good day thanks Sprite, and thanks for the jo
12:50 am
sprite
wonderful, Liz. Good to know he is familiar with it, and knows how to protect against the bad apples :)
12:51 am
Lizlin
What are your plans for today?
12:51 am
sprite
good to hear you are both well.
12:52 am
sprite
we will pick them up when they call us, then show them around some local places of interest. A low-key day to allow for recovering from jet lag
12:52 am
Lizlin
He's got a nasty cold - so far I haven't caught it. He needs to be better by Monday - cataract day.
12:52 am
Lizlin
That sounds like a good day. I'm sure there are lovely things around you.
12:55 am
sprite
the Zaanse Schans for one, lots of windmills, the first grocery store of Albert Heijn, stuff like that. The Verkade museum, with vintage chocolate and biscuit parafernalia (Verkade is a famous biscuit and chocolate brand here). The city hall, which I think is ugly as sin but okay, it is famous too with tourists now. Stuff like that for today.
12:56 am
Lizlin
Windmills - typical scenery :). I'm fairly sure I know that brand of chocolate and biscuit. i've seen it in speciality sections of supermarkets here. Yummy!
12:57 am
flosey
wow, sounds like their time is going to be quite full - and the chocolate sounds wonderful
12:57 am
sprite
yes it is really good. We didn't want to take them for long drives on their first day here... they traveled enough miles in the last few days, grin
12:57 am
Lizlin
Did they love all the surprises?
12:58 am
sandyloo
hi guys, take lots of photos Sprite. and I am friends with you on facebook
12:58 am
sprite
we'll take it easy, flosey. If it is too much, we do less. Just being together is wonderful enough in itself.
12:58 am
sprite
awesome, sandy, and hi! *hug* We will, Don has already started.
12:58 am
Lizlin
I didn't know you used Facebook, Sprite.
12:58 am
flosey
that is for sure, Sprite - just great to be together
12:59 am

oh, and Terra fell in love with Rose right away! Jumped up on the couch with her, put his head on her shoulder and looked straight into her eyes, asking for cuddles.
12:59 am

I hardly do, Liz. I have a page for my nail stuff and go there maybe once a week.
12:59 am
flosey
what a delightful welcome
1:00 am
Lizlin
OK - I did know about the nail page.
1:00 am

facebook is bad for me. Too much of a time sink!

de8 sounds a bit like a book of the bible
1:01 am
sandyloo
funny to say that sprite, and babble isn't? I do like facebook and i'm just discovering that babble community on it
1:03 am
Lizlin
Thanks, Flosey - great hint! Now I'm really out of here.
1:03 am
sprite
it is a personal thing, I guess, sandy. Facebook has too many fun games for me, and keeping up with all the pictures and stuff from some friends of mine will take at least an hour each day too.
1:03 am
sprite
as for babble, that is different. For one thing, it is finite :)
1:04 am
sandyloo

I know what you mean ruby, but I used to take my dog for walks and she'd get all kinds of burrs and pickers in her fur. It would take 45 min to an hour after each walk to clean her up
8:01 am
sandyloo
Ruby, hi! I have seen your dogs and I cant believe their coats they are beautiful. you must spend a fortune on them. We cant have dogs like that on the farm , they would pick up grass seeds
8:02 am
rubyfoo
And Raffie sleep Under a hedge most of the time, so you can imagine the plant matter she accumulates
8:02 am

with my terrier, the burrs come off so easily

ch1212 if you still need the te/7 it starts with the same 4 letters as the word before it and ends with a musical note (think do - re -mi). Add a sometimes silent consonant to the end.
8:48 pm
