I'm such a wet blanket. Just went out and made the kids and all their guests turn the music down a little - they're outside the house playing that game with the hole in a board and beanbags. And yelling to be heard above the music, something I've never understood the point of.
1:14 am
rbud
"kids" - ages 28 and 31, lol
1:14 am
sprite
*hugs rbud* Won't hurt them to keep other people in mind!
1:17 am
rbud
it's after one n the morning, too, and Sunday night. I always feel grateful the gal across the road hasn't called the cops a hundred times over the years - she leaves between 5:15 and 5:30 for work most mornings. but the noise here has always been on into the nights.
1:17 am
sprite
wow, she is a peach!
1:18 am
rbud
I figure by now they are either near deaf or have white noise machines, haha
1:21 am
rbud
they're the only other people living on our block, really. We have one whole side of the block, no other houses, and across the street is a little Catholic church falling into disrepair, those poor folks, and one other house, empty and condemned.
1:21 am
rbud
and yet we barely ever speak to each other.
1:22 am
sprite
well bless her for indulging your kids :D
1:24 am
rbud
we're also lucky none of her three daughters ever ended up involved with our son... he's kind of a chick magnet. Could have been problematic.
1:25 am
sprite
true, dat.
1:26 am
rbud
haha, phantom bosum... keeps bugging me.
1:26 am
sprite
mine is amoeba
1:27 am
rbud
oh, rats, now I'm seeing that, too! :D
1:27 am

it is worse for me. Because the dutch spelling is amoebe and that IS there.
1:29 am
sprite
tried it 4 times for looking up the english spelling, lol
1:29 am

hm, where did rose run off to, I wonder... I keep thinking she'll pop up
1:29 am

And for all you gardeners, the forget me not is a member of the my7 family. Your useless bit of trivia for the day.
8:34 am

didn't know the word....just monkeyed it....i am NOT a gardener...
8:35 am
bichon
what is the plant?
8:35 am
penquis
molly said that the forget me now is a member of the my 7 family....
8:36 am
MollyL
You are not familiar with forget me nots?
8:36 am
penquis
yes, just not the family....
8:37 am
MollyL
No, I meant Bichon. And I like "forget me now". It's like the opposite of forget me not. You give them to someone when you're breaking up with them.
: D
8:37 am
bichon
no, I don't have them in my garden
8:38 am
MollyL
I don't have them in my garden either, but I have heard of them. Kind of a unique name.

They do best growing near streams, in shade

Forget me nots are of the Borage family. Because of the name they were incorporated in cards sent to soldiers, particularly in WWI, and were given in brooches to sweethearts in Victorian times.

MLFAN17
pen me too
9:56 am
MollyL
I guess when you say "family" and "genus" it is two different things when it comes to plants. My7 is the genus.
9:57 am
MLFAN17
the actually word ends in s not e
9:57 am
MollyL
What word?
9:58 am
MollyL
If you look at the whole definition is says "also my7"
9:59 am
MLFAN17
I saw it as spelled with an s but that wouldn't work in the grid
10:12 am
MollyL
If you scroll down while looking at the definition, an alternate spelling of my7 is given that works in the grid.
10:13 am

There was a song in the '80s or '90s with the chorus "Sending forget me nots, to help you to remember" - that's probably how I learned of them. I always thought that was particularly insightful.
