*hugs rose* Hello my dearest friend! Popping in here just before family constellations. Lovely to see you! How have you been this last week?

1:24 am

grannyrose

you don't really want to know honey.... and Don has started a new med for his asthma... and it's driving me crazy...

1:25 am

sprite

I really want to know, sweetie. Sorry to have been so absent, was away from home and just before leaving our modem died. You know Rob... so I had to install the new modem on coming home yesterday evening. Am just starting to catch up on email and such

1:25 am

broll

1:25 am

grannyrose

it has changed his personality. if you thought he had a short wick before... now...it's kablam within a tenth of a second. *sigh*

1:25 am

broll

crap! how did that get in there?

1:26 am

sprite

lol broll :D

1:26 am

grannyrose

roflollll. poor broll....

1:26 am

sprite

that is awful, rose. Is that a temporary side effect or not?

1:26 am

Lizlin

Hi and hugs friends

1:27 am

sprite

*hugs Liz* I have dropped the books you asked for in our dropbox. I have more by Potok, if you are interested.

1:27 am

grannyrose

my joints are so sore.atmospheric pressure keeps changing. BUT..... workcover have already verbally approved my knee procedure. just waiting for the written word.

1:28 am

grannyrose

{{{{{ lizgirl}}}}} and {{{ lizgirl's DH }}}}

1:28 am

sprite

that part is really good news. Yay for workcover, for once. Though I need to see it in writing before truly believing, lol

1:28 am

Lizlin

Aw thanks Sprite. Iâ€™m fine on the others. Those were just special - memories and all that.

1:28 am

sprite

lovely, Liz.

1:29 am

Lizlin

Did all go through with the sale, Sprite?

1:29 am

Lizlin

Rose - that sounds really hard for you.

1:30 am

sprite

so far all good, Liz. Just waiting for the mortgage to be approved for the buyers, then it will be truly final. But that will happen within the next few weeks.

1:30 am

grannyrose

s'okay lizgirl... i have broad shoulders.... i know absolutely underneath he loves me.

1:31 am

Lizlin

All sounds good then.

1:31 am

sprite

Don worships the ground beneath your feet. But meds or not, he is responsible for his temper, honey. Don't accept too much from him or you will end up in a huge fight neither of you need.

1:31 am

Lizlin

You shouldnâ€™t need to have shoulders that broad

1:33 am

sprite

french for fall is valid. Whodathunk...

1:33 am

grannyrose

lollll... i have already told him he has just another 7 days... if the med continues to effect him then, i will clip him one around the ears... lolll.... if i can reach that is.

1:33 am

Lizlin

Or tell the doc to find new meds for Don

1:34 am

sprite

very good, rose. Even with the meds messing with him, he can count to ten before saying anything. Might be a good idea for now. Or 20. Or 110.

1:34 am

grannyrose

he still has some of his old med here. he can continue on that until he sees her in January.

1:35 am

sprite

Liz, are those books you'd recommend reading? The Potok ones, I mean?

1:37 am

Lizlin

I really enjoyed them The Chosen and The Promise go together. Asher Lev is separate.

1:37 am

sprite

will put them on my reading list then! Thanks!

1:39 am

grannyrose

i am looking at buying the Piers Anthony series of books. they are very funny, full of terrific puns...my friend, Robyn and i read them ages ago, and we used to nearly laugh ourselves out of air.

1:39 am

Lizlin

Chosen comes first. I reread Asher Lev recently after seeing Michaelangeloâ€™s Pieta in Florence.

1:39 am

sprite

sorry to hear about your pain, rose. *healing vibes your way* I know how atmospheric pressures impact our wellbeing. Sucks balls.

1:39 am

sprite

is he a writer or is that the name of the series, rose?

1:40 am

grannyrose

*grin* love the way you put that..

1:40 am

grannyrose

he is the writer.

1:40 am

grannyrose

Xanth is the series.

1:41 am

Lizlin

I read some of his books ages ago. Canâ€™t remember them though ðŸ˜Ÿ

1:41 am

sprite

*giggles* Ikr... got a real way with words, m e

1:41 am

Lizlin

OK Time to go and shower. Good to see you both. Enjoy your evening / day. Hugs

1:42 am

sprite

lovely to see you too, Liz. *hugs* to the both of you

1:42 am

grannyrose

{{[lizgirl}}} enjoy your evening honey.

1:43 am

grannyrose

Piers is a prolific writer. i may try some of his other books too.

1:43 am

sprite

I love puns and witty prose. Do you think my english is good enough to enjoy his books, rose?

1:43 am

grannyrose

absolutely sprite.

1:44 am

grannyrose

start with the Xanth series.

1:44 am

sprite

lolllll I see 40 books in that series. Awesome. I love me a good long series.

1:47 am

grannyrose

yeah, i just found that out for myself. i foresee you and i swapping puns left, right and centre. lolll

1:48 am

grannyrose

it is an open ended series because his fans keep begging for more.

1:51 am

sprite

perfect. Gonna enjoy it, thanks honey. Got to be off for now, will be back tonight but I think you will be sleeping then. *hugs* and lots of love. Tomorrow also FC, but after that I have a week without any appointments except Noud on Friday. Just the normal household chores.

9:38 am

rururocks

everything come out well yesterday molly?

9:39 am

MollyL

Very nice, how about you? What did you cook?

9:39 am

MLFAN17

ty ruru

9:40 am

rururocks

we're kind of untraditional here.. I grilled small loin lamb chops and had veggies and a nice salad.. and sautÃ©ed greens with balsamic

9:41 am

MollyL

That sounds great. No need for tradition if that is not your thing. I have several friends who go non-traditional on Thanksgiving.

9:41 am

rururocks

and we had champagne

9:42 am

uusue2

Hi all!

9:42 am

MLFAN17

hi uusue!

9:42 am

rururocks

it's a long story.. but one of our dogs had to have a limited diet and I had to cook turkey breasts for her every day for almost two years.. I can't stand the smell of turkey since

9:42 am

uusue2

I am emerging from a very long period of darkness after my husband died in early 2016, and am finally ready to take life by the tail again :-)

9:42 am

rururocks

hello Sue.. good to see you

9:43 am

uusue2

It is very good to be here!

9:43 am

rururocks

that's good news and I figured that sue.. congrats for getting through that

9:44 am

uusue2

I was terribly sad to read about jillibus, though; I had always meant to get back to see her again. What a lovely woman!

9:45 am

rururocks

yes.. a great lady.. she lived a full life for sure. Sharp as a tack still. I will miss her very much

9:47 am

bichon

ty ru for the mu 8

9:47 am

rururocks

I hope that if I make it that far.. I'm as sharp as she was

9:47 am

uusue2

Agreed, ruru!

9:48 am

rururocks

welcome back sue.. I have a dog harassing me for his breakfast right now.. brb

9:49 am

uusue2

np - I am in a rehab hospital and they are going to take me to therapy shortly

9:49 am

bichon

hi uusue. What happened to you?

9:51 am

Scrabbler

Sue, how nice to see you here.

9:52 am

uusue2

long story but two weeks ago I was found on the floor of my bathroom unresponsive and barely breathing; was in the ICU for 5 days, then regular floor in the hospital, then I came here (rehab with hospital-level support) a week ago. Turned out to be too much medication prescribed for my headaches. I have discovered that when you are slowly slipping away from reality you have no idea that that's what is happening.

9:52 am

uusue2

Hi, scrabs!

9:52 am

Scrabbler

Get stronger, Sue!

9:53 am

MLFAN17

sue don't get on anymore meds :)

9:53 am

bichon

Glad to hear you are on the mend

9:53 am

uusue2

I am almost back to normal, just need to work on balance and endurance, and some strength issues in my right arm. But no permanent damage, thank goodness, and I've gotten off almost all my headache medication and haven't had any headaches

9:53 am

Scrabbler

Yay.

9:54 am

uusue2

mlfan you are exactly right. My plan in the future if I get a headache that won't go away is to get a nice massage :-)

9:54 am

MLFAN17

or at leawt buy a bottle of medicine on your own no going to dr for it!

9:56 am

uusue2

Eh. I don't want to take anything, really, not for headaches. I'm sure I can manage them with the occasional massage and maybe a nice warm bath. They're not migraines or anything, just tension headaches.

9:57 am

Scrabbler

How old was Jill? Early 90's?

9:58 am

uusue2

Wasn't she 95 or so? I was there in 2012 and I seem to remember she was close to 90 then.

9:59 am

Scrabbler

I was thinking early to mid-90's. Amazing--playing Babble, posting on FB.

10:05 am

rururocks

10:06 am

rururocks

Maybe 93

10:10 am

rururocks

I cooked a dinner for her 90th

10:11 am

Scrabbler

How fortunate you were to have met her.

10:12 am

rururocks

met her several times actually

10:12 am

rururocks

KJE and I took her on a tourist tour of all of SF

10:15 am

Scrabbler

Nice.

10:17 am

rururocks

She was really something.. so wickedly smart and funny

10:18 am

How are you today, welkie?

12:26 pm

doing ok, thanks - how are things in beautiful mn?

12:27 pm

Nef

Actually, it's fairly okay here - it's in the 30's today, no sun, but also no rain or snow! It'almost felt like spring when I went outside this AM

12:28 pm

welki

i was out early today, too - but we're expecting snow starting this afternoon. ho ho ho

12:30 pm

Nef

We've had some snow here already, but not enough to shovel and it didn't stay long. We've really had a yucky fall this year: cold blustery, no Indian Summer, etc.

12:44 pm

welki

we get snow early here and have had several plowable accumulations already. that's what i get for living in the great white north :)

12:45 pm

Nef

You don't live *that* far north (if I remember right from years ago)

12:46 pm

welki

calgary, nef

12:47 pm

welki

we also have a small place about 2 hours north of here - the snow there can be much deeper than here

12:49 pm

Nef

Yeah, it's a little farther north than I thought (I was thinking it was Winnepeg or about that far north). But isn't a good part of your weather also do to being on the east side of the Rockies?

12:57 pm

Nef

My son just informed me that my cat puked from eating his cats' food. I forgot to feed my cat last night. :-(

Since I have NBT & NBS; I guess I should go take care of my cat.

1:58 pm

rururocks

how does one forget to feed their pet?

2:00 pm

rururocks

mine would harass me until I fed them

2:04 pm

MollyL

Not sure Ru, but the cat puke story was especially charming on a day that most people are eating a lot.
: D

2:07 pm

rururocks

as a former cat owner.. that was the one sound I couldn't stand was a cat heaving up a hair ball or throwing up..

2:09 pm

rururocks

cat's never puke on a floor that is easy to clean from

2:09 pm

rururocks

they have to run to a carpet or rug or couch to throw up so that it's ten times harder to clean uip

2:25 pm

rururocks

it got to the point that I called all three cats Ralph

2:56 pm

Soodle

And, from stage right, enters Soodle. Straight into the cat puke conversation. Typical . :-/

2:56 pm

rururocks

well you can throw up another subject if you like

2:58 pm

Soodle

Not feline up to that right now, Sorry

3:00 pm

rururocks

well you pussy-footed into the chat

3:03 pm

Soodle

You're lion, Ru. You bloody cheetah you.

3:04 pm

bojazz

such bickering...

3:05 pm

rbud

methinks I'll just back meowt...

3:05 pm

This is awful. I apologise.... I am a dreadful punner. I really need to leave this to the professionals. Exiting chat, cat-tail between legs!

3:06 pm

MollyL

Purrfect. Post Thanksgiving punning spurred on by cat puke.

3:06 pm

rururocks

what did you expectorate Molly?

3:07 pm

MollyL

*Emails Dr. God and asks for a Too Much Information censor in the cat

3:07 pm

rururocks

(has to admit that was a pretty good pun)

3:08 pm

MollyL

Heaving praise at Ru

3:09 pm

Ha ha ha ha ha!!!!! Love it!!!! TMI censor in the CAT!!!! Bwah ha ha

3:12 pm

I cooked today, and as far as I can tell, I'm the only one who's eaten any, lol... the rest are running around somewhere or out working on a broke vehicle... so much for gathering around the table...

3:36 pm

MollyL

I love the way Ru remammaries all the good cluers

3:38 pm

rururocks

punning on this subject is certainly titillating

3:48 pm

MollyL

Although it may not be D-cup of tea for some.

3:50 pm

rururocks

we're probably too bra-zen for the lurkers

4:03 pm

MollyL

Or they are lurking for other underwire support

4:04 pm

rururocks

I guess that sounds uplifting

4:08 pm

MollyL

Well, Wonder-Bra-vos for all of them.

4:13 pm

rururocks

all our friends in BC won't discuss it

4:13 pm

rururocks

4:17 pm

Trifioso

hello friends

4:17 pm

rururocks

hi trif

4:18 pm

rururocks

how did the get-together go yesterday

4:18 pm

Trifioso

mostly fine, thank you. How was your day?

4:19 pm

rururocks

mine was nice.. my ex came over for dinner and played with the dogs

4:19 pm

Trifioso

my goodness, how 2018 of you! wow!

4:19 pm

rururocks

I got to see a cousin also that I'd not seen in 21 years.

4:19 pm

Trifioso

that sounds nice

4:19 pm

rururocks

If I Don't invite her.. she invites herself :D

4:20 pm

Trifioso

4:20 pm

rururocks

bingo

4:21 pm

rururocks

it was nice.. I cooked a nice meal

4:28 pm

rururocks

and I got to throw a "Lark Ascending" CD out the window :D

4:30 pm

MollyL

Ah, the anger release of breaking those kind of things is so rewarding.

4:31 pm

rururocks

they're kind of like Frisbees if you really throw them right :D

4:33 pm

Nef

Back again. Reviewing chop, I see that ruru must have read about my cat. And yes, she only puked on the rugs (no carpeting in the basement; just some braided rugs.)

4:33 pm

rururocks

I don't know why cats do that.. it's so irritating

4:34 pm

Nef

so true. I chalk it up to their being angry with us & trying to get even with whatever they think we did wrong to them.

4:35 pm

Trifioso

i ordered a TON of stuff on line last week -- all of which just arrived today, a week ahead of schedule, when both beloved and Secondo are home. Awesome

4:36 pm

Nef

Do they now know what their Christmas presents are Trifi?

4:40 pm

welki

trif! i hope the message i sent to you reached you

4:44 pm

Trifioso

uhhhh - when welki?

4:44 pm

Trifioso

and yes, nef, at least where they are from

4:44 pm

Trifioso

my hubs also just learned that he bought me a purse for christmas, lololol

4:44 pm

Nef

LOL! WTG, Trifi! :-)

4:45 pm

MollyL

Congratulations Trif. I didn't know you got married.

4:46 pm

Trifioso

thanks molly

4:52 pm

Trifioso

may I please have the count for the lone e in the 2nd column? I'm sure it massively fishy

4:53 pm

4:53 pm

Trifioso

thank you ruru

4:53 pm

Trifioso

got it, thanks all

4:55 pm

Trifioso

we have the tiger woods/phil mickelson golf challenge on - it's quite interesting, and the money they are betting each other is INSANE

4:56 pm

rururocks

are they serving pancakes to the crowd? :D

4:57 pm

Trifioso

no, but the swearing is hilarious, and the trash talking each other

4:57 pm

Trifioso

its VERY interesting to hear them talk to their caddies - everyone is fully miked

4:58 pm

Nef

I always hope that when you hear of people betting huge amounts of money that the winner will donate it to a worthy cause. (I'm usually disappointed, however)

4:59 pm

Trifioso

this is 100% for charity

4:59 pm

Nef

GREAT!! :-D

5:01 pm

Trifioso

phil mickelson is delightful - it's like he's the maitre D for the whole world, chatting everyone up, shaking hands, "are you having fun?"

5:01 pm

rururocks

that's good.. glad Tiger isn't dicking around

5:02 pm

Trifioso

not at all! they are taking the win very seriously

5:02 pm

Trifioso

meanwhile, secondo is dying her hair blue....can't wait to see it!

5:06 pm

rururocks

I once knew a guy who did that to his genital hair and had a name for it

5:07 pm

Nef

What name, ru? (I have to ask)

5:07 pm

rururocks

the Blue Man Group

5:08 pm

Trifioso

hahaha

5:08 pm

Trifioso

i admire her - I would love to give something so new a try

5:08 pm

Nef

Okay, ru.

5:10 pm

rururocks

that one took a while to set up :D

5:10 pm

welki

wandered away - trif, i sent it via fb (i got your name from the babble name list)

5:11 pm

Nef

My daughter has died her hair blue, and black & blue at another time. I think it's great! I've seen so many older women with wildly colored hair lately; everything from blue & flaming red (over the white hair to green, and I think it's great for people who want to do that. (I'm not brave enough to do it much myself; I don't have a lot of hair & think that wild colored hair might be hard for what hair I have left

5:12 pm

Trifioso

I don't think I got it welki, oh dear!

5:13 pm

welki

no worries, it was a link to an organization founded by an internet friend of mine - pertinent to your work

OMG< this is SO COOL - great send, welki, thank you!

5:16 pm

welki

listen to some of the music - just loved the compilation by students in east and west jerusalem

5:18 pm

Trifioso

will do, definitely! I can't wait to tell our directors about this

5:18 pm

welki

i'll get you the contact name, if you'd like it

5:21 pm

welki

actually, her first name is in the email contact address

5:28 pm

Trifioso

Colorado is a HAUL from here, but I will pass on the info just the same

5:29 pm

Dorens

but you can smoke pot there Trif

5:30 pm

welki

coincidental that it originated in massachusetts :)

5:31 pm

welki

i know that music and art is woefully underfunded in high schools, but maybe there's some grant money somewhere that would allow your school to participate

5:31 pm

welki

hi dorens

5:31 pm

Dorens

Hello Welki

5:32 pm

welki

heh - you can smoke it here, too, but since it became legal in mid-october, there's a nationwide shortage *lol*

6:01 pm

any reason for the "down low"

Hi all

6:14 pm

Lizlin

Back to find my last 12 words.

6:18 pm

sprite

hi all, cannot sleep, glad I still have some words to find

6:18 pm

Lizlin

Any clues for rh 7 pls?

6:19 pm

Lizlin

Hi and hugs again, Sprite.

6:19 pm

sprite

*hugs Liz*

6:19 pm

Lizlin

Sorry you can't sleep.

6:20 pm

sprite

no biggie, will sleep later on. One more day and then I will have a full week off :)

6:20 pm

Lizlin

That sounds very good.

6:22 pm

sprite

and not complaining! I had a very inspiring and interesting week. Food for the soul... the body will benefit in the end.

6:22 pm

Lizlin

Stimulating too, I imagine. I guess that's why you can't sleep.

6:22 pm

sprite

could very well be

the rh7 ends in the eastern word for energy

6:23 pm

sprite! what a lovely treat

6:24 pm

Triffles!!!!!! *huggles* How have you been? And the girls?

6:24 pm

Lizlin

Thanks, Sprite and hi Trif

6:24 pm

Trifioso

well, thank you. one girl is just fine, one is not. but let's speak of other things, please?

6:25 pm

Lizlin

Fireworks

6:25 pm

sprite

of course. My son is in Scotland, at the university studying for brewer!

6:25 pm

sprite

wtg Liz!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

6:25 pm

Trifioso

oh my goodness! that's a degree all right!

6:26 pm

Lizlin

Hope you get to sleep soon, Sprite. Have a good evening Trif. Hugs

6:26 pm

sprite

it fits him to a T. And my girl is in her final year Linguistics. Considering going abroad for her Master's.

6:26 pm

sprite

thanks Liz. Have a grand day and a peaceful night.

6:26 pm

Trifioso

fantastic!

6:28 pm

sprite

and my love and I are downsizing. Seriously downsizing. Thrown out about 80% of our stuff, sold the house, are gonna build a tiny house.

6:30 pm

Trifioso

that is something I always wonder if I could do....I CONSTANTLY have "declutter" on my list.

6:31 pm

Trifioso

my beloved's son used to build tiny houses - they are completely and utterly charming. Will yours be fixed in place, or mobile? Any chance you would house boat it?

6:32 pm

sprite

we had a backlog of 20 years... with my handicaps from the pregnancies and the depression and all... we just never decluttered. When we started with the sales of our house, we HAD to get rid of stuff. We were thorough, lol.

6:32 pm

MollyL

Wow, good for you Sprite. Tiny houses seem hard to live in. I'm claustrophobic, so the loft bed thing would never work. Good luck to you.

6:33 pm

sprite

we will make it mobile. But not on a boat. At our age and with our handicaps, being on water is not a smart move. Too humid, too much joints aching.

6:33 pm

Trifioso

okay than

6:33 pm

Trifioso

then

6:33 pm

sprite

thanks, Molly. We are considering making the study on the loft, and the bedroom downstairs.

6:34 pm

sprite

imagine cleaning your entire house in 15 mins :) I will love being able to do that.

6:35 pm

Trifioso

that is the freedom of building a house! you can put the rooms where ever YOU want

6:36 pm

sprite

and with tiny houses, there are so many smart solutions to optimise the use of your space. We will go to a workshop on selfcontained, off the grid housing. Some guy has done a LOT of research on that and is willing and eager to share his knowledge.

6:37 pm

harpjane

Living in a tiny house sounds like too much work to me.

6:37 pm

sprite

how's that, jane?

6:38 pm

harpjane

Having to put everything away all the time....

6:38 pm

MollyL

Lots of work with tiny houses, what with the plumbing situations and lack of space.

6:39 pm

sprite

ah, right. We will have to take that into account, yes. Make smart and easy cupboards to hold it all. And do away with everything we do not really need.

6:39 pm

sprite

it is definitely not for everyone. My love and I will thrive in a tiny house, it is exactly what fits us. But I realise that is not the case of everybody.

6:40 pm

rururocks

I live in a smaller house.. but not tiny

6:40 pm

harpjane

I imagine it would be like living out of a very full suitcase, where you have to put everything back where it belongs immediately. I supposed I would like it after I got used to it!

6:40 pm

sprite

hiya ru :)

6:41 pm

rururocks

when you say tiny.. how tiny?

6:41 pm

sprite

about the size of a sea container, ru. It should fit on a trailer.

6:41 pm

Trifioso

as long as you never, ever leave babble I am happy

6:41 pm

Bugsaw

Sprite, I think you will get the hang of putting things away as you go very quickly. It is like living on a boat. You do it out of neccessity.

6:42 pm

sprite

*grins* I promise. Getting 4G internet is a priority.

6:42 pm

rururocks

wow..that would be way too small for me

6:42 pm

sprite

hiya Bugs! Yes, I think so too. We are used to camping and that is when we are happiest. Just the bare necessities and keeping it all ordered.

6:43 pm

MollyL

I think I "might" be able to live in something that small, by myself. But not with another person. No matter how much I liked/loved them. People need room.

6:43 pm

Bugsaw

I vote with Molly. People need their own rooms.

6:44 pm

sprite

that has been my main worry. But we tested it out and it turned out that we do very well together in a small space.

6:44 pm

Bugsaw

or maybe I don't love as well as Sprite and her partner

6:45 pm

rururocks

wow..

6:46 pm

sprite

well, we are not newly-weds, ofcourse. We have worked through a lot of differences and found a good balance between us. We also learned to really communicate. Those things help.

6:50 pm

sprite

or they help us, anyway. We are following our bliss with this move. But I realise not everybody would feel blessed in a tiny house, with a partner always close by.

6:52 pm

Bugsaw

I think it is great that you two are so comfortable. I just know I can't watch the same tv shows as Mr Bugs all the time so I need my own space to read, play Babble and get away from the noise of what makes him happy.

6:52 pm

sprite

fireflies

6:52 pm

Bugsaw

well done. hope you can sleep now

6:53 pm

sprite

we are different in that respect too. We will be watching tv on our separate computers, I expect. He with his headphone and I without sound, probably, most of the time. We very much do our own things, just side by side :)

6:54 pm

sprite

me too. Thanks for the company! Lovely to see you all. *hugs* and have a blessed day and a peaceful night, in any order.

6:54 pm

Bugsaw

that makes a lot of sense! you have thought of eveything and I am sure it will be a success.

6:55 pm

MollyL

Bugs, I'm sure you love very well. Not everyone wants to spend every waking moment within inches of their partner. Time apart is good for a couple.

6:56 pm

Bugsaw

Thanks Molly. That is what I was meaning.

6:56 pm

I mean the box where you type the word .. there's a pause after the first 2 or 3 letters .. then the other letters show up, and there's a pause after I hit enter ..

8:10 pm

I see

torgone, if you're still here: you may want to try a different browser. Firefox recently became very slow for me when I'm entering words in Babble. I think it's looking up other words I've typed previously with the same letters to show in a list (though many of them aren't actually words, in my case), but it's **very** slow.
