good morning all

1:20 am

grannyrose

{{sprite}} good morning dear one how are you? and how was your yesterday and night? xoxox

1:22 am

sprite

*hugs rose* Hello dear friend, good evening to you and your beloved. I am fine. Bit of a bumpy night, no doubt some processing of the dentist terrors, lol. Otherwise, all is well. I cooked a curry yesterday and it was to die for. Also made a prayer booklet for OA and am now translating it. Might give it as a present to other fellows there.

1:22 am

sprite

how about you? How was your night and how did your day go?

1:24 am

grannyrose

night was good. alas don seems to have picked up another nasty bug. very sore throat. he had a script for some anti's so he went and had it filled. he is very sleepy too. not liking this at all.

1:25 am

sprite

aw poor man :( Are you giving him your miracle mixture lemon drink?

1:25 am

grannyrose

i am managing okay now. getting breakfast was a bit difficult as i can't take any meds until i have eaten.

1:26 am

grannyrose

i can't get out to buy some lemons. this is si frustrating, not being allowed to drive, and the walk to the shop is too far.

1:26 am

sprite

ugh yeah, that is a nasty challenge. I know that feeling.

1:27 am

sprite

can you ask a neighbour to bring you some?

1:27 am

grannyrose

i have given him warm salt water gargles though which are helping.

1:28 am

grannyrose

honey, question about bipolar. my next door neighbour had her meds changed just before we went away. she was a little catty but not too bad. but now she is being down-right spiteful to me.

1:30 am

sprite

that might be more her nature than the meds, though I am no expert. Bipolar behaviour tends to vaccilate between being on top of the world with the sky as the limit, and very depressed and inactive.

1:30 am

grannyrose

she critisises my clothing, very loudly, saying i hate that and where did you get those dreadful pants. then yesterday at the luncheon, i found her pulling apart a sandwich i had made, with her bare hands, saying, accusingly there's no cheese in this.

1:30 am

sprite

could it be she is jealous of your grand tour? Or miffed because you have not asked her to look after mail and plants?

1:31 am

sprite

wow, that is really spiteful behaviour

1:32 am

sprite

not to mention bad manners. Am sorry, honey, you absolutely do not deserve that.

1:32 am

grannyrose

i just don't understand her actions or words. all i have ever done is tried to encourage her, and build her spirits.

1:33 am

sprite

perhaps you should ask her if her mama has not taught her better manners.

1:33 am

grannyrose

i have never been derogatory about her clothes and habits. just accepted her for where she is and who she is.

1:34 am

sprite

she sounds like a lady who needs that very much. But don't let her walk over you, my dear friend. It is very much okay to let her know you do not appreciate her attitude.

1:34 am

grannyrose

nah, don't think so sprite. i don't want a tit for tat thing happening. might have a word with the vicar perhaps.

1:36 am

grannyrose

anyways..... how's my favourite family in the whole of the Netherlands?

1:37 am

sprite

sometimes it is hard to understand other people's behaviour. Don't have to tell you how people can take offense at some tiny thing and turn all nasty, and don't even accept honest apologies but insist on hanging on to their feelings of being slighted. This might be something like that, some innocent thing you said or did that she took the wrong way and is now obsessing over.

1:37 am

grannyrose

ahhh, good point. i do have a weird sense of humour. mayhap i did slight her.

1:38 am

sprite

oh, we are fine :) Tomorrow I am gonna play taxi for Caya and some of her friends, driving them to the ferry to one of our islands for a short holiday.

1:39 am

grannyrose

how good you are sprite. i hope the friends appreciate it. i know Caya will. is the weather being nice?

1:39 am

sprite

well, that would be a better way to handle it, maybe. You might ask her if you have done anything that hurt her and if so, that you are very sorry her feelings were hurt. It might clear the air. Though from experience I must say that sometimes it won't. But at le5 you will have tried and done all within your power to solve it.

1:40 am

grannyrose

are they camping under canvas?

1:40 am

sprite

nah, it is a pleasure to do something for our kids. And yes, Caya always appreciates it a lot and her friends are, according to her, amazed at her parents. We got a good rep, lol. But it is plain normal parenting and loving.

1:41 am

sprite

yes, they are.

1:46 am

grannyrose

i wonder how much sleep they'll have?

1:47 am

sprite

caya is an experienced camper, so I think they will be fine.

1:50 am

sprite

hm, brick wall at 2/3.

1:54 am

grannyrose

need a bit of a hand, honey?

1:54 am

sprite

nah, second wind will kick in at some point. This is about normal for me, a brick wall at around 2/3 or 3/4. And then, a little later, it is like a curtain is lifted, lol.

1:55 am

sprite

the last few grids were easier, no brick walls there.

1:55 am

sprite

thanks for offering though :) *hug*

1:55 am

grannyrose

strange as it may seem, i love the bigger grids.

1:56 am

sprite

oh yes, I love that feeling you get when you can enter whole series of words.

2:00 am

grannyrose

not a lot of runs in this one i'm afraid.

2:01 am

sprite

no, definitely not. But that is fun in its own way. Certainly challenges my sleepy brain

2:02 am

grannyrose

challenged my unsleepy brain.... lolll no surprises there

2:02 am

sprite

*grins*

2:08 am

sprite

yep, second wind hit. 15 left

2:09 am

grannyrose

wowie !!

2:10 am

sprite

somehow that always makes it clear to me that whenever you get stuck in life, it is enough to have faith and wait, and things will start solving themselves.

2:11 am

grannyrose

too true

2:17 am

sprite

fireflies. That was fun :)

2:18 am

grannyrose

WTG SPRITE!!! may you have a lovely day full of good things. hugs to you and Rob.

2:18 am

sprite

sweetie, I am gonna score a cup of coffee and then work on my prayer translation. I wish you a good evening, a peaceful night and a blessed day. Give Don my very best and wish him well. And please, sweetie, take it easy on yourself. *hugs*

2:46 am

Maisie

I'm back! Have sent you an email Rose

4:13 am

rubyfoo

Hello?

4:14 am

zoozzoom

Hello, ((Ruby))

4:14 am

rubyfoo

It is a beautiful day here! The humidity has dropped and, though still hot, it's lovely, and there's fruit

4:14 am

rubyfoo

epts

4:14 am

rubyfoo

oops

4:14 am

rubyfoo

((zzoozz))

4:15 am

zoozzoom

The heatwave in europe has not come to the UK. A blessing for a lot of people I suppose. Although I would love it.

4:15 am

rubyfoo

PMy only problem is that I ned a ride to the pharmacy, but will just have to drive myself -- not a good idea, but I don't think I have a choice

4:16 am

rubyfoo

I love the heat but when it's really humid, it's noy so pleaxant. But it's better than winter!!!

4:16 am

mattygroves

Morning Ruby and Zooz! Hope all is well...(and I agree - I hate winter)

4:16 am

rubyfoo

How coild is it there?

4:16 am

mattygroves

May I have stats, please, for the N in the last column?

4:16 am

rubyfoo

HiMatty

4:16 am

zoozzoom

Sorry to hear that, Ruby. No neibour there to drive you?

4:17 am

zoozzoom

Hello, Matty. NE 5/10 & plural

4:17 am

rubyfoo

I asked one, so far, but she immediately syarted making excuses!

4:17 am

mattygroves

Thank you!

4:17 am

zoozzoom

It is around the 19C here, Ruby.

4:18 am

rubyfoo

I need those n's, too, will hunt

4:19 am

zoozzoom

Can give you more of a clue if needed, Ruby.

4:20 am

zoozzoom

Would getting a taxi not be feasible, Ruby?

4:23 am

rubyfoo

I have the meds, so the pharmacy will just have to wait for thr scrips.

4:24 am

zoozzoom

Ah that is okay then!

4:24 am

zoozzoom

Here you have to give the perscription before you get any meds.

4:25 am

rubyfoo

A boy comes to walk the dogs and feed the birds when the housekeeper isn't here and they just came back and I offered Camember to Raffie. She likes chevre, Rfie doesn't. He likes brie and Camember, she doesn't.

4:25 am

rubyfoo

They are so funny!

4:25 am

rubyfoo

They both like cream cheese.

4:26 am

zoozzoom

Give the scrps to the lad and a few euros and send him on his way :-)

4:26 am

rubyfoo

The pharmacy knows me and it's just a continuation of the same drugs

4:26 am

zoozzoom

Nice to see the dogs have their own individual tastes lol

4:27 am

rubyfoo

It's to far and on a Dangerous road and he would do it on his electric bike, but I am reluctant to send him.

4:28 am

rubyfoo

Chow chows are definitely specuial: Tjhey make many lists of 10 most: beautiful, expensive, most Dangerous, least smart! hahah

4:28 am

zoozzoom

I am sure he will be fine, Ruby. Could just ask if he would not mind and it does not matter if he does not want too.

4:28 am

zoozzoom

LOL yes I can imagine!

4:29 am

rubyfoo

He would do it and I always pay him, but if Something happened to him, I would nave forgive myself.

4:29 am

rubyfoo

never*

4:30 am

zoozzoom

I kind of understand, Ruby. But I think you are worrying about his journey a bit too much :-) He wil be fine.

4:32 am

rubyfoo

can't find those pesky n's

4:32 am

zoozzoom

NE + most of the sausage in pastry.

4:34 am

rubyfoo

I think l'm particularly dense this morning

4:34 am

zoozzoom

In fact i like the mini sausage ***l on a stick and warm not keen on a sausage ***l cold.

4:34 am

MollyL

ne + ....out the barrel without the double consonant at the end

4:35 am

zoozzoom

We'll have a barrel of fun!

4:36 am

MollyL

Which is a lot better than a barrel of monkeys.
: D

4:36 am

zoozzoom

:-)

4:40 am

zoozzoom

Okay bath water is ready. Time for a soak. Happy babbling everyone!

5:19 am

rubyfoo

Back. The boy was here to do the little chores but I'm stuck w/out driving.

5:19 am

rubyfoo

need to run some errands and can't

5:20 am

rubyfoo

Nothing earth-shaking, just annoying

5:21 am

gran

re 7/36 ?

5:22 am

rubyfoo

stats for 2nd column lowers e, pls, or even a clue

5:22 am

rubyfoo

re7 xhat one has for the "finishers"

5:24 am

MollyL

Aretha Franklin sings about Re7

5:25 am

rubyfoo

Molly's clue is much better!

5:26 am

MollyL

Your clue was fine. That song just starts playing in my head whenever I see the word.

5:26 am

rubyfoo

Do you sing it with a little dance?

5:28 am

rubyfoo

People are so Strange; they are always saying "If there's anything I can do to help" and then, just noiw, one called and I asked her to drive me 5 minutes away, she said that there is too much traffic!

5:30 am

MollyL

Always, always dance to Aretha music. How can one not? As for people, yes, they are often saying "if there is anything I can do" but rarely follow through on that.

5:30 am

rubyfoo

And she called me!

5:31 am

TheByzantine

ruby, what stats did you want at 5:22?

5:31 am

rubyfoo

Now, if you'd just hurry on over and drive me on my errands, I'd be very happy

5:37 am

TheByzantine

5:38 am

rubyfoo

Nah, I'm happy anyway!

5:38 am

TheByzantine

I think even if I hurried might not be fast enough to get the errands done today

5:38 am

rubyfoo

See you later

5:39 am

rubyfoo

I'll manage, but thanks, I have plenty of meds and food in the house

5:39 am
