12:58 am

anike

St7

12:59 am

hurshy

got a call from school today around 5:30 (NEVER since i started teaching there have i gotten a call outside school hours) saying there is a teachers' meeting tomorrow at 9

12:59 am

hurshy

interrupting the beginning of the school day for a meeting? when we have lunch meetings already in place where we could be told things?

12:59 am

hurshy

what on earth can it be???

12:59 am

dcseain

oh my! and i gather not a union meeting.

12:59 am

hurshy

no, it's a private school

12:59 am

dcseain

that is worthy worry, may you sleep well.

1:00 am

hurshy

no but seriously, what can it be? i need plausible theories to help me sleep well... or at least ok.

1:01 am

Jacula

I've got an n8 left. Any clues, please?

1:01 am

dcseain

well, what comes to my mind: policy or curriculum change; administrative change; some serious parent complaint -- though it's hard to imagine one that requires all the teachers.

1:02 am

Jacula

It's in the far right column.

1:03 am

broll

a rounded arrowhead?

1:03 am

Jacula

I'm guessing it's non something or other.

1:03 am

hurshy

yeah it is

1:03 am

hurshy

like um, a line or a plane is a no8 ??

1:03 am

1:09 am

dcseain

congrats, jacula, i hope you have a great day :)

1:09 am

Jacula

You, too, seain. x

1:09 am

dcseain

i need to teach someone to make puff pastry on Saturday.

1:09 am

dcseain

what should i make with it?

1:10 am

dcseain

i'll need to do a test run before then also.

1:11 am

Jacula

That's quite an undertaking, seain, if they're an impatient young type. Good luck with the butter placing, rolling, folding and chilling.x

1:11 am

anike

Does anyone have all the 7's? I have at7, en7, im7, in7, mi7, mo7, ne7, po7 x 2, re7 x 2, st7, te7, to7 x2, . Anyone know what I am missing?

1:11 am

grannyrose

profiteroles?

1:12 am

Jacula

Profiteroles are choux pastry, granny rose - another sort of pastry entirely.

1:12 am

grannyrose

oh okay.... can tell i'm not a pastry cook, huh?

1:13 am

Jacula

LOL! Yes.xx

1:13 am

jessmom

se7 and another te7

1:15 am

Jacula

seain - do just basic sausage rolls with the puff/flaky pastry.

1:16 am

grannyrose

mmmm, yummy. seain, hang on. i volunteer to taste te4 for you.

1:16 am

Jacula

Or a steak pie. Or a veggie pie.

1:16 am

Book Doctor Gwen

hi all, diving in

1:16 am

grannyrose

steak and kidney pie, jac?

1:17 am

Jacula

Hi Gwen. We're having a pastry based food fest at present.

1:17 am

dcseain

i tried to explain that the technique is like croissant.

1:17 am

dcseain

he's around my age, so not young.

1:17 am

Jacula

That's my favourite, granny rose, but I often prefer to use a suet crust pastry for that.

1:17 am

grannyrose

gwen, they're teasing my taste buds. tell them to stop....

1:18 am

Jacula

Seain - so you can credit him with the patience to do all the buttering, folding, chilling etc.

1:18 am

grannyrose

'snot fair... mwah...

1:18 am

dcseain

my housemates killed off the cherry-rum-ginger pie i made on Monday today. Half of it was left.

1:19 am

Jacula

LOL re the hungry ones. LEARN TO COOK!x

1:19 am

dcseain

LOL that true, Jacula :)

1:19 am

Jacula

:D Seain

1:20 am

grannyrose

can't learn. no kitchen. DH removed our cooker 14 years ago....still waiting for a cook top and a decent oven.

1:21 am

Book Doctor Gwen

not a giurmet here, sorry folks! i'm happt with bland boring food 8 - )

1:21 am

dcseain

oh my, rose.

1:21 am

dcseain

choux pastry is easy, and so versatile.

1:21 am

Jacula

Re the cherry-rum-ginger pie, Seain. I saw that on FB and I think you killed the taste yourself. Rum or ginger but not both with cherries.

1:21 am

grannyrose

jac, when my kids were school age, i used to bake all day saturday. you name it, i made it. but not pastry, sadly

1:22 am

Jacula

To be honest cherries need no more than a bit of Kir and some almonds in the filling and crushed in the pastry.

1:23 am

grannyrose

seain, who do you think cooks all our meals? very basic of course.i refuse to do any more cooking until i have a proper kitchen to cook in.

1:23 am

Jacula

granny rose - as long as you made them healthy stuff.x

1:24 am

Jacula

Choux pastry IS easy, Seain, but it broke my icing bag last time I did it.

1:25 am

grannyrose

couldn't make it too healthy, jac. they just chucked it away. i contented myself knowing they were not consuming any preservatives etc.

1:25 am

Jacula

Gwen - whatever makes you happy. If you don't want your tastebuds zinged, then so be it.

1:26 am

Book Doctor Gwen

yeah, keep your zingies to yourself LOL

1:26 am

dcseain

bourbon-ginger-cherry was wonderful. We were low on bourbon, so i used rum.

1:26 am

Jacula

They need to learn that fruit and veg are nice, grannyrose.

1:27 am

dcseain

that seems fair, rose

1:27 am

dcseain

if i do rum again, it'll be rum-cherry-chocolate

1:27 am

grannyrose

oh they did jac. at meal times nothing but fresh produce on the table.

1:27 am

Jacula

I'm off for the day for now. Happy Babbling all. x

1:28 am

grannyrose

i was one of the first mums, i think, that decided tins and jars etc of baby food would not be given to my kids. i guess that's why they are all so tall and healthy.

1:29 am

grannyrose

enjoy your day jac. xoxox

1:29 am

Jacula

I was the same, grannyrose. We stand together! x

1:30 am

grannyrose

in the 1970's it was quite remarkable to cook the kids meals yourself.

1:34 am

broll

1:38 am

2:01 am

sprite

good girl :D

2:02 am

grannyrose

how are you sweetie? rest day for you today, yes?

2:03 am

sprite

nope. No more real rest days till we move. I already cooked dinner for today, so that helps. Babble first, then I am gonna battle the big cupboard under the stairs.

2:04 am

grannyrose

can you sit while you do it, honey?

2:05 am

sprite

partly, yes. We will see. If there is a lot of bending and kneeling involved, I will let that part lie till Rob is home. Friday we are gonna pick up our trailer.

2:06 am

grannyrose

how exciting.. you are nearly at the end of that long long road. i am so proud of what you have done.

2:07 am

sprite

thanks, darling. I would be a lot prouder if I had done even more, lol... this last bit has teeth!

2:07 am

grannyrose

yes it does sweetie and you are gonna get it done.

2:09 am

sprite

today it doesn't feel that way. But yesterday was tough... had a severe case of diarrhea in the evening which means my system reached a total overload. Been up most of the night. But... this morning we were back to normal errrr you know what. Am telling my body that even though we are gonna work real hard again today, there is not reason to stress out ;)

2:10 am

sprite

of course it is not the hard work that does it. But handling too much pain and stress.

2:11 am

grannyrose

i know sweetie. and i feel every ache and pain with you.

2:12 am

sprite

rose, I am totally serious now: knowing you think of me, pray for me and have my back makes all the difference. Even though you are not physically here, you are pulling me through.

2:13 am

grannyrose

awww honey. thanx for that. and yes, i am with you every step you take.

2:14 am

sprite

I know. I can feel it. Having ptsd and being hsp is not usually a great combination, lol, but it sure helps me feel the subtle energies of your thoughts, prayers and love. Bless you. And Don too.

2:15 am

sprite

*waves at zooz and Kam and sends hugs their way*

2:16 am

2:27 am

grannyrose

2:27 am

sprite

poor man :( But he must be happy to have you tucking him in.

2:28 am

grannyrose

2:28 am

Kamanjah

He's leaving again tomorrow, for a week max - we hope that's the max

2:28 am

Kamanjah

2:31 am

sprite

you will miss him lots, no doubt. I hope he will be back in a week.

2:32 am

grannyrose

8....

2:32 am

Kamanjah

I hope. Dad is supposed to move to assisted living soon...not sure of details, the sister set it up. Sounds like Dad is ok with it and likes the place.

2:32 am

sprite

that sounds good.

2:34 am

Kamanjah

fingers crossed that it all works out best for dad...he'll be 94 this week.

2:34 am

sprite

constant professional care, company and a place he likes might make a big difference.

2:35 am

Kamanjah

I think so - more ladies than men, and several were flirting with him when he visited. He's quite the ladies man, too

2:37 am

Kamanjah

And he will be safe if he falls!

2:37 am

sprite

yay for him :D

2:38 am

sprite

and counting, rose :D

2:39 am

Kamanjah

Well, I managed to get just over halfway...I'm tired, and finally have a chiro appt tomorrow - need to get the kinks out!

2:39 am

Kamanjah

Night all...or g'day ;)

Hi Owl - not seen anything. He is swapping over the NBN - our newish national broadband. He guessed it wouldn't be smooth sailing so guess he is right. Plus he would have to manually get back on track I suppose. List is on Sprite

72 Temple Owl

i need to get paper and pen to finish against a list. can no longer copy or right click. no longer have excel. way overdue for new hardware.

8:23 pm

HarryHood

I just keep molly's profile open next to my browser and go through letter by letter

8:25 pm

72 Temple Owl

that does not seem to work for me when there is a long list of re words, etc. my mousepad is shot, so selecting and resizing to get things side by side is nearly impossible.

8:25 pm

HarryHood

yikes you do need new hardware

8:26 pm

72 Temple Owl

yep and all i see in my prcie rabge is hp and i think they suck, unless there has been a volcanic shift in their quality

8:27 pm

HarryHood

around here you can find lots of discarded pc equipment in fine shape on the sidewalks on trash pickup day

8:31 pm

72 Temple Owl

srsly you can just throw it into the trash? we cannot do that here, although we have private haulers.

8:33 pm

HarryHood

not sure about the laws, but I see lots of stuff out on curbs. I got an old monitor to show my class effects of magnets on crts

8:36 pm

72 Temple Owl

can you reuse it or are no you stuck with it?

8:37 pm

72 Temple Owl

ah, i failed to see the portuguese mister!

8:37 pm

HarryHood

I guess one day I'll have to get rid of it

8:39 pm

72 Temple Owl

mu neighbor did not want to pay to dispose of his old crt so he smksed it and put the bits into the trash little by little!

8:40 pm

HarryHood

hah! sounds like ppl here who hide their recycling inside their trash

8:41 pm

72 Temple Owl

imagine smashing up a tube tv, the toxicity

workplace etiquette question

9:17 pm

dcseain

ask away!

9:18 pm

hurshy

if someone gets fired, for no particular reason, just "not the right fit", does a company usually consider it unacceptable for company employees to keep in touch with the fired employee via personal channels?

9:19 pm

dcseain

that is none of the company's business.

9:19 pm

mkg

hurshy, i would assume it is fine to stay in touch. friends are friends.

9:19 pm

hurshy

ok, that's what i thought.

9:19 pm

dcseain

you're free to associate with whom you wish.

9:19 pm

hurshy

just confirming that that is normal. thank you.
