hello everyone :)

pippingeek

hiya nan

3:02 pm

zoozzoom

I think my dad is losing the plot these days. We had a right ding dong about the moonlanding. He swears it never happened as you cannot see the stars and it was to do with beating the russians so the USA pretended to land on the moon etc

3:02 pm

zoozzoom

I told he he probably believes the earth is flat too. and that did not go down too well either.

3:02 pm

zoozzoom

Him*

3:04 pm

Judi

Hmm. Has he always felt this way, or is this a new development, Zooz?

3:05 pm

zoozzoom

Was not always like that, Judi. But lately no matter what it is he will say it is the opposite. He is driving the family mad!

3:06 pm

cybernan

how old is he, zoom?

3:06 pm

Judi

Well, that is perplexing. How old is he. Might he be developing a touch of dementia?

3:06 pm

zoozzoom

84-5 I can never rememebr peoples ages lol

3:07 pm

cybernan

could be dementia -- could also be a series of mini strokes or TIA's -- a trip to the doc might be in order

3:07 pm

Judi

Oh. Definitely possible that he has some alzheimers and/or dementia. Sad. Don't ding dong with him.

3:09 pm

zoozzoom

Doctors is out of the question he says they are all a bunch of well bottom holes is apolite way of putting it.

3:10 pm

Judi

Yikes.

3:10 pm

zoozzoom

I said to my mother that in future I will let him get on with it. But we were watching the 50th anniversary of the landing and we were enjoying it then he tries to spoil it for everyone.

3:11 pm

Judi

What does mum say about his general behavior? Has it changed radically lately?

3:11 pm

cybernan

My mom had a series of mini strokes that last few years of her life -- 10 second blackouts, fell a couple of times and with each one the mental capacity diminished a little more -- also had some memory loss and I suspect low thyroid -- wasn't one to go to the doctor either

3:11 pm

zoozzoom

I think he is just fed up of his condition and is not a happy chap.

3:12 pm

zoozzoom

Mother has her own problems and is fed up with it too yet on the other hand tries to help. So hard on her really.

3:13 pm

zoozzoom

Yeah, Nan he has had at least 8 blackouts this year. been in hospital a few times for other things too.

3:15 pm

zoozzoom

Anyway sorry to have clogged the chat up with it all. Just was annoyed about the denial of the moonlanding.

3:15 pm

zoozzoom

Will try and find my last few words to calm me down lol

3:16 pm

Judi

Take it with a grain of salt, Zooz. He's not the man he used to be. Just nod and say, "anything is possible".

3:16 pm

zoozzoom

Yeah I told mother that is what we will do in future. I love them both to bits.

3:17 pm

cybernan

ca 8 please?

3:17 pm

Judi

Ask him to tell you a "real" story, Zooz. I'm sure he's got loads.

3:18 pm

zoozzoom

Hat + rock

3:19 pm

cybernan

ty - feel stupid for not seeing it now

3:19 pm

zoozzoom

It is a twisty one so easy to miss.

3:20 pm

zoozzoom

Will do, Judi. Thank you for the suggestion!

3:22 pm

Judi

Used to love to hear my Dad tell stories from the war, when he was a kid, etc. etc.

3:22 pm

MollyL

Zoom, there are a lot of people who don't believe the moon landing happened.

3:23 pm

Judi

Clue for the Co9, please?

3:23 pm

cybernan

like the ca 8

3:24 pm

zoozzoom

Yeah I know, Molly. But I at least thought my dad had more sense :-)

3:25 pm

Judi

Huh. Ty, Nan.

3:25 pm

cybernan

yw

3:26 pm

MollyL

Zoom, have you read the September 11th conspiracy theories? Lots of smart people with plenty of sense doubt what they are "told" by the government.

3:26 pm

gapeach

Good afternoon. May I please have a clue for po6-21? Thanks

3:27 pm

Judi

When my Dad graduated from high school, he got a try-out with the Pittsburgh Pirates baseball team. They told him to gain 20 lbs. and come back. He said he couldn't do it. Geesh. Now, someone would be like, give me five minutes while I eat my face off and I'll be back!

3:27 pm

cybernan

lol - I think that nowadays we all doubt what government tells us - with good reason!

3:28 pm

Judi

Quitten time! See y'all tomorrow! *POOF*

3:28 pm

zoozzoom

Hello, Gapeach! PO + consonant + heavy weight.

3:29 pm

zoozzoom

Take care, Judi.

3:30 pm

gapeach

Oh, thanks, zooz. It was driving me mad. I've read your posts. My mother never believed that we landed on the moon either. I just agreed with her. Easier that way. Sending hugs and prayers.

3:32 pm

zoozzoom

Hugs back to you too, ((Gapeach)) Hope you and your babies are okay.

3:34 pm

cybernan

no 7-8 combo please?

3:34 pm

gapeach

Try to get as much rest as you can.....I know this is a very difficult time for you and your family.

3:35 pm

zoozzoom

NO + consonant + not future

3:35 pm

zoozzoom

Thank you, Gapeach. I am rather tired today so will retire early this evening.

3:35 pm

cybernan

ty zoom

3:47 pm

zoozzoom

And done!yðŸ˜œ

3:48 pm

I've topped everything I can think of -- to 7 please?

3:48 pm

cybernan

grats, zoom

3:48 pm

zoozzoom

Think of a boat, Nan.

3:49 pm

cybernan

except that - ty zoom

3:49 pm

zoozzoom

lol

3:51 pm

cybernan

ap 6 please?

3:51 pm

zoozzoom

If there are people here on babble who do not believe that the moonlanding happened. That is fine with me. I did not mean to upset anyone who has that belief.

3:51 pm

zoozzoom

Time for me to retire for the evening. Happy babbling everyone!

3:52 pm

zoozzoom

AP + exam.

3:53 pm

MollyL

Zoom is such a trooper. Even though he's tired, one more clue for the clue pile. Night Zoom.

11:40 pm

Pinikula

How've you been?

11:41 pm

stidmama

(((((hugs))))) I miss seeing you! It has been a surreal many months.

11:41 pm

Pinikula

Good or bad???

11:41 pm

Pinikula

Everyone doing ok?

11:42 pm

stidmama

I really don't recommend continuing at work when gravely ill... I had iron-deficiency anemia which took AGES to start to improve. Much better now, but the rest of my systems are coming back online slower than I like.

11:42 pm

Pinikula

Sorry to hear about the iron issue...but glad you're on the mend!!!

11:43 pm

stidmama

Kids are well. Stidkid#1 has decided he can tolerate living in the same town again [MAJOR VICTORY] so we get to see him a lot more often. Stidkid#2 has a goal for a career, but it's taking a really long time to implement. And Tom is steady as a rock. :-D

11:43 pm

stidmama

How about you? I caught a picture of camo boy (I think) I few months ago, and he is SO GROWN UP.

11:43 pm

Pinikula

That's good to hear!!!

11:45 pm

Pinikula

Gdau graduated high school and starts college in the fall; she has a new little sister (now about 3 months old); the gsons are doing very well; the older (and his team) won their baseball championship; the little loves to support big brother; my parents had some health issues that are coming around and they're doing well for elders...

11:46 pm

stidmama

Sorry about the health of parents, that's not a lot of fun. I cannot believe you have a grandchild that advanced in years... that would be the lovely young woman I spied in a post? So happy for your grandson's sports success.

11:47 pm

Pinikula

*grin* and I've got a few good rides coming up - can't wait...love getting out in good weather!

11:47 pm

stidmama

I am so impressed with your bike riding. A dream I have had, but at this point only if I can afford one of those great "trikes"

11:48 pm

Pinikula

We have a few trikes in the group...they look interesting. If we're ever in the same place with the bike again, perhaps a short ride is in order! :)

11:49 pm

stidmama

that would be SUPER COOL

11:49 pm

Pinikula

*smile*

11:50 pm

stidmama

so.... down to 64. but I finally have NBT and NBS, so not bad for 20 minutes' work so far

11:50 pm

Pinikula

I popped in and now have 84 words...138 to go...

11:51 pm

Pinikula

...not bad for a few minutes work. Now if I could just jump in long enough to finish one some time!!! :)

11:52 pm

stidmama

go pini go!

11:52 pm

Pinikula

*laugh* You're funny!!!!

11:53 pm

stidmama

Want me to hold my breath to help encourage you? *wicked mama look*

11:53 pm

Pinikula

99 words...might break 100!!!

11:53 pm

Pinikula

Oh, gosh, don't do that, you'll pass out!!!

11:53 pm

Pinikula

*giggle*

11:53 pm

stidmama

LOL

11:55 pm

Pinikula

102 / 120 - not bad!

11:55 pm

Pinikula

maybe 1/2-way

11:55 pm

stidmama

woo-hoo!

11:55 pm

stidmama

*wonders if flo is still around*

11:56 pm

flosey

hi there stid, yes, I'm still around

11:56 pm

Pinikula

hiya Flo!!!

11:56 pm

stidmama

(((flo))) hope you are well? I was looking at old pictures from when I brought the boys to visit you.

11:56 pm

flosey

Hi Pini

11:57 pm

stidmama

That was one of the best weeks of my life.

11:57 pm

Pinikula
