*hugs Liz* haven't had time in the last few days, been away from home. It will probably have to wait till tomorrow!
12:57 am

12:58 am
sprite

12:58 am
sprite
pretty near. We'll be going there more often in future.
12:59 am
Lizlin
We're fine - enjoying the warm days and wishing the nights would warm up. It was 22 C during the day yesterday and got down to 5 C last night.
12:59 am
sprite
ouch, that is a big difference.
12:59 am
Lizlin
That sounds lovely. What sort of environment were you in?
1:00 am

it is wood, at the edge of water. Couldn't be more perfect for us.
1:00 am

Just the 2 of you or were the kids with you?
1:01 am
sprite
tim is on vacation in italy. Caya was with us, and of course Terra too.

Lizlin
Of course Terra too :) Just the place for a dog. Lovely that Caya was with you. Quality time.
1:02 am
Lizlin
Where in Italy is Tim?
1:02 am
sprite
it truly was. Yeah, Terra is a great outdoor dog, he is happiest when he is out on adventure with us.
1:03 am
Lizlin
Can believe that.
1:09 am
sprite
at the south end, I believe. Tim being Tim, he wasn't too clear about it himself. "I don't have to drive there, mum, so why should I care?" :D
1:10 am
Lizlin
Interesting reaction. That's a place I'd love to visit - Sicily too. Still I'll get to the north part next year, so I'll make do with that for the time being.
1:12 am
Lizlin
Looking forward to it.
1:12 am

I was doing so well on this grid earlier, I got 150 words fairly quickly, but have now been working on this for over an hour and only found 6 more words in that time.

.. the joys of drinking to excess on a Saturday night ... include doing it at home where you can fall asleep without doing serious damage to anyone ... while remembering a lady from long ago and knowing that no one else in the world, including her surviving family is thinking of her ....... lordie I
10:41 pm
doseffing
I'm maudlin this evening ... ... again ... luck to all
10:45 pm

Drinking to excess one day ruins the whole next day to me.
11:04 pm
Nef
28 words left! I think I'll finish!
11:17 pm
jubi
Drinking at all ruins me.....had one sip last night and it was horrible
11:22 pm
Nef
I hear you, jubi. I do like a small glass of wine on rare occasions, but I will end up paying for tithe next day. It just isn't worth it to me anymore.
11:27 pm
jubi
I wish I could have a glass every now and again. I'm probably one of the few who are allergic. One sip of a drink last night gave me hives
11:33 pm
Nef
jubi, I get severe hives from sangria. We figured out (that the sulfites in the wine & the citrus fruits cause an allergic reaction in me.In the past, I couldn't even have wine & citrus fruit on the same day. (Another reason to quit drinking for me)
11:37 pm
jubi
It's much like playing Russian roulette. At first I thought it was the sulfites in wine, then I started reacting to anything alcoholic. I could feel my throats closing up......
11:38 pm
Nef
yep. do not drink again unless you have Epi-Pens on hand!
11:39 pm
jubi
I have. But I can't see having any thing again. It just hurts.
11:43 pm
Nef
Yes, if your throat closes up; do not drink again! I've had a couple of anaphylactic reactions (to bee stings & also to an NSAID medication (like Naproxin) & they are not fun.
11:44 pm
jubi
Oh my. Have you ever had to use the epi pen?
11:45 pm
Nef
A couple of times. (I'm also a nurse; so my family -including my 8 year old grandson - all have been trained in what to do & how to use the Epi-pens)
11:46 pm
jubi
Seems very scary to me.
11:46 pm
Nef
It really makes me mad that they expire in 1 years these days too.
11:48 pm
jubi
At the price they are now, outrageous. Have them cuz my son is allergic to peanuts.
11:51 pm
Nef
Talk with your doc; ask for an "auto-injector" epinephrine (which is generic epi-pen) and they're a lot cheaper & work as easy as the brand name stuff.
11:57 pm
jubi
Will do. Need to see the allergist, haven't been in too many years. Things change.
11:57 pm
Nef
Oh, Wow! do see the allergist ASAP
