lol well finally! *hugssssss* my darling, lovely to see you again. Missed you.
12:50 am
grannyrose
missed you too. how was your week away? i did write you an email.
12:50 am
sprite
how are you doing today?
12:51 am
sprite
got your email :) Good to read that the FM is behaving.
12:51 am
sprite
our week away was lovely. Very peaceful.
12:52 am
grannyrose
after 1 1/2 hours of hydro.... not too bad considering i am only 3 weeks away from the 12 week cycle.
12:52 am
grannyrose
and Rob?? is he feeling the benefits too?
12:52 am
sprite
it is really going well, isn't it? I am so happy for you. It takes hard work, but it is giving the results you were aiming for.
12:54 am
sprite
he is, but he also had to face a couple of hard truths about what his body will let him do and what not. He is struggling with that.
12:54 am
grannyrose
i am still walking with no aids at all. except for the lap walking at the gym. no, ruru, it isn't the same as lap dancing...
12:54 am
sprite
and wow, rose. That is truly awesome.
12:55 am
grannyrose
thought i had better put that in.
12:55 am
sprite
smart move. Though I wouldn't mind a dose of ru's puns :D
12:56 am
grannyrose
yeah, i know. but he seems to be very busy.
12:59 am
sprite
I did some pebble painting while away. Will send you pics later one.
1:00 am
grannyrose
lovely. was the weather nice? what did you do while Rob was away at work?
1:02 am
sprite
first two days it was cold, after that the weather was lovely. I kept myself amused with keeping our camping place tidy, walking terra, reading, pebble painting, meditating, even some thinking, lol.
1:03 am
grannyrose
how wonderful !! sounds like my sort of getaway..
1:04 am
sprite
:D Wouldn't have minded having you there with me!
1:09 am
sprite
we're gonna try to arrange for that to happen for when you come visit us again, okay? We'll send the guys away during the day, and we'll putter about, fix dinner and share some peaceful days. We'll feed our hungry men in the evening, lol.
1:09 am
grannyrose
don is shopping for me. i need swim fins, pool dumbells(not the same as cabana boys), noodles and a kickboard. my hydro physio has now given me 13 exercises to do, then she thought thay they would only take me 45 minutes to do. and as each are either 3-5 mins of reps, or 3 x 20-30 reps, i am thinking she is just a tad optimistic about the overall time.
1:10 am
sprite
lololllll indeed. Sounds like you will need an hour at least.
1:11 am
sprite
yeah, cabana boys do not have to be dumb. Some are smarties :D
1:11 am
grannyrose
hence the 1 1/2 hours this morning..
1:12 am
sprite
yeah. It will probably be faster once you have a routine down. But not 45 mins, I don't think. Are you sure she wanted you to do all 13 exercises? LOL
1:15 am
grannyrose
i have to build up until i am doing them all. the last 4, added today, are more cardio and i have to take it easier with them.
1:16 am
sprite
ah, I see. Just take it slow then, honey. Baby steps in building up, that way you will manage them all in time.
1:16 am
sprite
over time*
1:18 am
grannyrose
the most difficult piece of the equipment is the swim fins. i want pink ones, or purple. but the only ones we have found so far are quite expensive, far mo4 than what i am prepared to pay
1:19 am
sprite
*giggles* And you can't settle for another colour of course...
1:20 am
grannyrose
well a hideous yellow has surfaced....
1:22 am
sprite
if they are cheap, buy them and make them pretty with bathroom stickers!
1:22 am
grannyrose
hey good idea.... you're not just a pretty face are you?
1:23 am
sprite
nope. Some braincells hiding behind that face. Whodathunk, right?
1:24 am

right.... lollll
1:35 am

watching a quiz show on tv, out of the corner of my eye. no-one knew who wrote Ode to a Grecian Urn.

4:04 am
zoozzoom
Ruru left a message yesterday not sure if you saw it but he loved the recipe you gave him. He said it came out wonderfully.
4:04 am
MollyL
Thanks for passing that along. He said much the same in an email. It is nice to have something else to do with chicken.
4:06 am
zoozzoom
True..you can never have enough recipes for chicken. I love chicken.
4:09 am
zoozzoom
Well I had better get on with my day. hope your day is a great one, Molly. Bye Ruby. I do not think, Sprite meant any harm in what she said to Rose. Must admit I did not know it was such a bad word to use between friends. But maybe on a chat forum it is not the best choice of word to use? I did not see the harm myself. Anyway I will be off. Happy babbling everyone!

just looking thru chat before I go - several people called one of the 8s "silly" - it probably hasn't been used much since I was young but it was part of a railroad car, reserved for those who could pay for a bit of privacy that the people with berths couldnt afford. (that's as close as I can come without clue-ing). Interesting grid. I.m off. Happy B-day MLF
