Flip! Bugs, I was trying to respond before the flip but lost it. If more of us engage; then maybe we can all keep up together.

12:02 am

Bugsaw

My mind doesn't do puns naturally, Nef. I have a great sense of humouir but that kind of wit evades me. I love it when people are good at it because I appreciate how difficult it can be!

12:02 am

SamanthaJoy

Yes, if you have a bunch of people putting in one comment apiece, it works better than two trying to keep a streak going.

Very true, SamanthaJoy. I can't keep up with puns either; but it does work better (for me at least) if there's some others also playing on each others' comments

not much chance of finding that one, but have the rest

12:53 am

cybernan

starting to enter words already entered - time for bed :)

12:53 am

sprite

good morning all

12:55 am

Nef

Hi sprite. I'd like to stay up & chat; but I'm starting to lose it now.
How are you doing these days?

12:56 am

sprite

hiya Nef, sounds like you are ready for bed!

12:57 am

Nef

Yep, I am (It's 1AM here)

12:57 am

sprite

All good here, except for two feet in plaster. We moved out of our house, into a caravan, so it is a bit of a challenge to move around. But we are happy anyway, very glad to have started our simpler, less complicated life.

12:57 am

sprite

how about you? And yours?

12:58 am

Nef

2 feet in plaster? What happened?

12:59 am

sprite

misstepped from an awkward little stairs.

1:02 am

Nef

We are still here; DH is still mostly able to walk with a cane or using a shopping cart for short trips to the grocery store. We're going to move this year into some form of senior housing; I just can't keep up with the house & yard any more and keep track of him.

1:02 am

Nef

That must have been some mis-step!

1:03 am

sprite

might give you a lot of relief, once it is done. Not easy to let go of your home though.

1:04 am

sprite

yes it was. An ugly fracture left, and a bad contusion right. But surgery was successful, healing has started, so it will be okay in time.

1:05 am

Nef

We've lived her over 25 years now; it no longer gives pleasure when it's so much work.

1:06 am

Nef

how much longer will you be in plaster casts?

1:06 am

sprite

so true. I think it is great you feel ready to let go now that you have to. I hope you will find a lovely place to live with just the amount of care the two of you need.

1:07 am

Nef

It must have been tough to move into a caravan; will you be doing much travelling once your bones have healed?

1:09 am

sprite

we hope to build our own tiny house. As long as that process is going on, we will be living in the caravan. It is nice to be mobile, but for now, Rob has to work still and we need to stay in this area.

1:10 am

Nef

(We once dreamewd of doing that; traveling around the country in an RV; but that was before it was too hard for DH to get around (& before he gave up driving and before he started getting forgetful)

1:10 am

Nef

Okay

1:10 am

sprite

must be tough to see your partner getting too old for those dreams :(

1:15 am

Nef

Yeah. But you know what? as we age, our dreams become more realistic too.
We are planning a road trip out to Montana in 3 weeks; my brother died of ALS & they're having a "Celebration of Life" for him and so we're driving out there with our 2 kids & the grandson; then taking the train back afterwards.
I just hope the weather improves enough that it won't be too tough a trip for all of us (it's 1100 miles from here)

1:16 am

sprite

wow, that is some journey. I am so sorry about your brother. An ugly disease. But celebration of life sounds wonderful. I hope your trip will be just that1

1:16 am

sprite

1 = !

1:19 am

Nef

Considering we have nearly 4 feet of snow on the ground here & they have quite a bit of snow there; I worry about the drive; but this is the most economical way to do it (the train had a special for "2 for 1" ticket prices on Valentines Day; but it doesn't start until after the celebration. I wanted to have DH fly out there; he decided that he'd rather ride with us instead.

1:20 am

sprite

fingers crossed, Nef. May the snows melt enough to make your journey possible, and comfortable as can be.

1:23 am

Nef

I hope so.
But right now I really need to go to bed; so I can function in the AM. You take care of yourself sprite.

1:23 am

sprite

will do. Sleep well, Nef, and all good thoughts and wishes for you and yours.

1:24 am

Nef

Same to you! Good night!

1:41 am

1:42 am

grannyrose

1:42 am

grannyrose

how are you going? have you caught up a little?

1:42 am

sprite

ugh, too hot is so debilitating. And are you gonna call them to set an earlier date?

1:44 am

grannyrose

too close now to the set date. the lists will be all filled. also, i want to be at my 'best' when i come over.

1:44 am

sprite

yeah, easy day yesterday, friends came to cook for us. Something did not go right though, they and I have had bad belly-aches last night. Rob did not though.

1:44 am

sprite

ah yeah, I understand. *huggggg*

1:45 am

There is nothing wrong with moaning in bed!

1:45 am

sprite

1:46 am

grannyrose

cast-iron belly Rob...like me.... i gag and gag, but that little ol' orifice at the top of my tummy is not gonna open up.

1:50 am

rururocks

1:51 am

grannyrose

not the best decision probably. the sweeter wines.... don't they have a hi4er caloric value?

1:52 am

grannyrose

oh sprite, you are rocking

1:52 am

rururocks

Yes. Especially white wines

1:53 am

sprite

kinda. Also have 3 8s. For me, that is pretty good.

1:54 am

rururocks

Off to bed. Wake me if i start moaning ðŸ˜œ

1:54 am

grannyrose

hmmmm..... i have developed a palate for sangria. i try to use a merlot or a pinot as the basis. but the sweeter reds are VERY drinkable as i have a sweet palate.

1:54 am

sprite

honey, if you don't wake up when I get you moaning, I will let you sleep :P

1:54 am

grannyrose

*ties string to ruru's big toe*

1:55 am

sprite

1:55 am

2:06 am

sprite

2:07 am

grannyrose

but the result.... sheer bliss and happiness

2:08 am

sprite

absolutely. Can't wait to see you IRL again

2:08 am

Lizlin

Hi ladies - good to see you both here.

2:08 am

Lizlin

How are you all doing?

2:09 am

sprite

*hugs Liz* Lovely to see you too. How are you and your beloved doing?

2:09 am

Lizlin

We're fine - as usual - but how about your poor ankles?

2:10 am

sprite

I am good, Rob is too. Navigating our way through both needing care, and succeeding so far.

2:10 am

grannyrose

{{{{{lizgirl}}}}}}}

2:10 am

Lizlin

Have you got extra help?

2:10 am

sprite

ankles are healing. I can move them both a tiny bit and it feels okay.

2:10 am

Lizlin

Is there provision for that sort of thing.

2:10 am

Lizlin

Rose :) - how are you doing?

2:11 am

Lizlin

That's progress, Sprite.

2:11 am

grannyrose

taking it quietly and loving the A/C. and you two?

2:12 am

sprite

we found a good microwave in the thriftstore and ordered a fridge. Will be delivered tonight. And tomorrow evening we will have meals for 5 days delivered. That relieves Rob from groceries and cooking, which will help a lot.

2:12 am

Lizlin

Enjoying the cooler weather. The seasons finally changed late last week. I saw about the fires in Vic. All OK with you?

2:12 am

Lizlin

That will be a good help for you both.

2:15 am

grannyrose

yes lizgirl. we and our family are all safe. the devastation is so wide spread. it's he5-breaking.

2:19 am

Lizlin

Glad youâ€™re all safe. Fires are scary and devastating.

good morning my darlings! SNOW DAY -- so happy!

11:22 am

BzznBea

YEA! Snow days are the best days!

11:25 am

Trifioso

also the most necessary snow day EVER - was at a drama festival competition with the school where I costume, and didn't get home until 10:30 last night, totally exhausted

11:25 am

BzznBea

Did you school do well?

11:32 am

Trifioso

actually, yes! We won awards for our costumes (ahem!!!) and we were chosen to move on to the next round of competition. Both thrilling AND awkward as all hell - the school where I work during the day was also there, and was NOT chosen for the semi round. oops.

11:35 am

BzznBea

That's great for those kids and you as well!

11:36 am

MollyL

I guess the school where you work should re-think their costume designing needs : D

11:42 am

Trifioso

haha molly. Two TOTALLY different genres of plays. We did Tartuffe, 1675 France, they did a modern play, set in a high school. Closet costumes!

11:43 am

Trifioso

we spent over a $1000 on our costumes, and hand made almost every piece. I can't say I fault them, at this point!

11:44 am

MollyL

Yes, but they will never know what they might have found in YOUR closet : D

11:48 am
