1:49 am

hi pav and ursh

1:49 am

hi andree!

I am taking advice from my babble buddies though, and taking Luke to an ENT about his persistant nose bleeds

this Lapthorne story is so sad too...

1:51 am

mrp i would have phoned re yesterday but i felt it was far too hot to do much

Britt Lapthorne... flew to Germany last June... celebrated her birthday with her family in Europe, then she went to Zagreb, Croatia. So so sad. I am sorry Andree! I felt the same way, but should have contacted you darling! forgive me

1:52 am

just changed to sky news all other channels have gone to cricket etc

1:52 am

It must be awful to be sick when it's so hot too

She went to Dubrovnik in September, and disappeared.

jilli, the kids are the ones that suffer the most!

1:52 am

what happened in Croatia?

1:53 am

nm, I see

1:53 am

they say these fires could burn for weeks

an australian girl lost her life... on holiday in Croatia. The evidence comes down to serial killer

indeed andree! How awful for everyone!! I am home most of the time... need to watch out for embers if they are falling. Lickety will stay home to be sure

1:54 am

oh dear -- like the girl from Saltspring Island who went to China on a modelling assignment and was murdered by a stupid young thief

1:55 am

26 burning and at least 10 not contained andree so sad

too harsh. yes jilli, just like that.

1:55 am

mrp -- how close are the fires to you?

1:56 am

are there fires near you mrp, i know there plenty of bushland

well, there was a deliberate fire set in Peat's Ridge yesterday, but that was contained... we can look across the valley and see it... it is far away, but not far enough when the wind is coming from the north!!.... it is all bushland from there to here, and a direct line

friggin arsonists!! I want them in the chair

1:58 am

Hi Sprite...its pretty easy I think

2:46 am

hello, sprite ... you can do it with one eye behind your back

2:46 am

great to see you all. *tries to be crosseyed enough for that trick*

2:47 am

mixed metaphors can be interesting

2:48 am

2:50 am

nice job Angelsong

2:51 am

we got our taxes done yesterday...I don't ever wait until the last minute.

2:52 am

dreamt of bush fires last night. I pray for lots of help and support for all the people suffering from them.

Sprite there is a lot of people doing information swapping to help at the moment

2:53 am

Angel, don't even say the word! I must file 2 years before April 1...

2:53 am

good, then part of my prayers are answered already ;)

Hugs the kind sprite

otoet

2:54 am

that one should be valid, looks nice to me!

sorry about that

2:55 am

I liked it

ill be here for 5 more minutes

2:57 am

lady, I cannot believe how much your kitty looks like my old cat. If there is animal reincarnation, this could be proof, lol.

which one fatty or hyper?

2:58 am

the black one

oh hyper.

They are both very cute. I was blessed last night and had them on my side of the bed last night

2:59 am

aw that is sweet

one was on one side the other on the edge. They usually argue

3:01 am

back again, computer froze, doing that a lot lately, don't know what else to do except remove battery and replace and start over

3:01 am

you are all right about this grid, it is fast as lightning

CHeck for viruses andree that or get a cooling pad if its a laptop.

3:02 am

3:02 am

i am too busy watching the news which is terrible to have got too far with this

3:02 am

3:02 am

it is awful :(

3:02 am

and its not a virus

I use a cooling matt for the laptop stops it having hot splat

I turned off the tv its just to sad

3:03 am

overheated then, as lady said. They are programmed to shut down when they get too hot.

3:04 am

it doesn't shut down, just makes a whirring noise and freezes

3:04 am

never heard of a cooling pad, will endevour to get one

3:04 am

hi all

3:05 am

hi ardilla

3:05 am

hi Ardilla, how are you?

Hi Ardilla. I recommend Techworks from Office works. I had one that was plug in and it wasn't too great

3:05 am

happened to me once. In my case the laptop had been too hot once, and windows was damaged. Had to reinstall windows. Also needed to have the ventilator cleaned.

3:05 am

hi ardilla

3:05 am

my lappies has a coolpad that creates space for air to circulate under it

3:06 am

targus makes it...no plug to worry about

3:06 am

called the targus traveler coolpad

I must love you and leave you

3:07 am

has little feet to prop up the lappie

3:07 am

mornig all

3:07 am

Hi rolin.

3:08 am

Rolin I have turned off the Tv I have sat here in tears most of the night

3:09 am

3:09 am

its really terrible

3:10 am

yeah..ive been reading the age... my nephew has a big property in whittlesea...it got to his driveway

3:12 am

proud of you, lady. Go get 'm :)

3:12 am

bye herin

3:13 am

didn't realise that, rolin. Must be close to impossible to extinguish those fires!

Rolin Marysville is gone so has king lake. Eucalptys explode. Poor wildlife too

3:14 am

it is sprite, when no houses or lives are at risk they often contain them and let them burn back on themselves

3:15 am

I can imagine, it may be the only way. The damage must be unimaginable.

3:16 am

and our brave firefighters working around the clock

3:16 am

It's just so dry, been no rain for ages. A little sprinkle due tomorrow & Tuesday. I hope that helps to get on top of the fires while the temps are low

3:17 am

My prayers go with them

3:17 am

what we need is a huge downpour, should get queensland to send their floods

3:17 am

i used to go to marysville when i was a kid..its such a beautiful spot..

3:17 am

3:20 am

am not risking fireworks today. Just minor and safe sparklies.

3:21 am

3:21 am

bye sprite tc

Queensland is in the north right? *sadly lacking Aussie geography knowledge*

4:22 am

Yes Birdee - tropical

4:23 am

just googled aussie map - where are you Lynxxx?

4:23 am

In Victoria...small State above Tasmania which is the large island bottom right

4:28 am

Looking through the maps and Lonely Planet info I remember how huge Australia is. I grew up in the US west in Denver - 20 hour drive to San Francisco or 20 hour drive to Chicago. But I can't really imagine driving across Australia.

4:31 am

Oh dear - a much loved retired newsreader and his wife are 2 of the victims. Sorry, this is too sad, I'll be quiet for now

5:00 am

Yes MRP - Eau de T******

ah, thank you!

bloody french words

5:01 am

*continues to do rain dance*

5:01 am

yes ewwy potty words

700 homes destroyed

slim chance of escape

many burnt so badly, not expected to live

5:02 am

are fires like this unusual in Australia?Does this seem to be related to global warming?

5:02 am

and there are some towns they haven't been able to get into to count

eva, that isn't the issue at all

5:03 am

How did so many people get trapped?

5:03 am

This is the worst Eva. Started on our hottest day ever. We do usually have bush fires each year, and have had 2 very bad ones before

5:03 am

It's shocking to read about. I didn't realize at first that it was in populated areas

5:04 am

ugh...i give up...clue for 2nd te6/18 pretty pls???

5:04 am

They were talking about how quickly it was moving and how you didn't see it. It was on our news about your news reader and his wife

the army has been brought in to help

5:04 am

The winds have been a huge factor, as well as extreme dryness, we have been in drought. People have just been trapped trying to defend their homes or have left their run too late. Some cars trapped on roads with fallen trees

the premier of the Victorian State broke down! how sad that these were set by arsonists

5:05 am

*continues doing rain dance and praying fervently*

5:05 am

spot fires have started a lot of blazes and the fire fighters just have not been able to get to all of them

5:06 am

the fires were started by arson???

the balls of flame are 70 metres high!! never seen anything like it

worst ever fire disaster

5:07 am

the fires that started last week were lit by an arsonist and i believe someone has been charged over it.. they have not ruled out yesterdays as being started by arsonist.

how sad.... how sad sad sad. :((

5:07 am

hi Demi. Is Rolin OK? she seemed distressed...it's bad enough here let alone on the other side of the world

5:08 am

have the arsonists been caught?

some have ardilla

5:08 am

te

5:08 am

with they be burnt at the stake?

whole towns have been erased

5:08 am

rolin said that she is okay, just extremely worried

5:08 am

she was on earlier

5:08 am

rolin is ok.. her nephew lives in the area of the fires but they got out early yesterday afternoon.

5:09 am

i agree ata

we have small communities in australia... it is incredibly sad for those that lost all, and their neighbours

5:09 am

how close are the fires to Melbourne?

5:09 am

a public stoning then burnt at the stake

5:10 am

hi suger

5:10 am

about 30 to 60 min by car

5:10 am

and demi

5:10 am

Quite a way Eva

5:10 am

at least the grid is earlier to fix...

the communities have been destroyed by fire, and their friends and children dead... this is awful

5:10 am

are the fires under control now, or still raging?

5:10 am

hi ard

eva, not under control

5:11 am

hi eddie

5:11 am

Still going Eva...and starting in NSW now

5:11 am

hi ardilla, just lurking and some how the lickety add snuck the te in

5:11 am

why do people do such things to ot5s

NSW has got them now... too unbelieveable

5:12 am

i still have one word to go, the 2nd te6/18...

the fires swept through the towns with such speed... there was nothing anyone could do

5:12 am

how horrifying and tragic. And so often they people who set the fires are teenagers who have been abused. Not excusing, just a terrible cycle of pain. Have no idea if that is true in this case.

5:12 am

i hope that aussie will have recovered by the time i visit in dec

this is the worst bushfires in our history.... over 100 people dead.

5:13 am

very tragic...*prays to god for mercy for aussies

eva, the people that have been caught are between 31 and 39

5:14 am

unbelievable!

5:14 am

why? why? why?

5:15 am

they are obsessed with fire, a turn-on

5:15 am

have they no conscience?

5:16 am

well, have a bbq...don't kill

5:16 am

set themselves on fire, the bast****!

5:16 am

te6 te & conc*** , a building product

5:16 am

5:17 am

6:26 am

That was so funny. I've passed it on to someone I know who needs a good laugh.

6:28 am

hey lillian

6:28 am

hi weed!!! been busy ; )

6:29 am

yes we do, but we really got our toes done as well!

6:29 am

hi feather

6:29 am

i wish i could, i already have plans :(

6:29 am

: (

6:29 am

monkey said she'd take lots of pics and post them for me!

6:29 am

ugh - pics

6:30 am

and don't believe everything she says about me!!

6:30 am

guess that means I must look decent - LOL

6:30 am

lol

6:30 am

as long as you won't believe half of what she says about me - LOL

6:31 am

it's a deal!

6:32 am

oh, breakfast is calling...bbl

6:32 am

i wish breakfast was calling me...

6:33 am

my breakfast called me and I ate it

6:33 am

food calls...i always eat

6:33 am

My breakfast called me and I sent it away.....never eat it.

6:34 am

i guess i must go call breakfast... maybe it will answer... bbiab

6:34 am

I'm being good. I hate breakfast, but I'm trying ever so hard to eat breakfast every day

6:35 am

My son tells me that I don't eat enough to lose weight. I forget to eat.

6:35 am

hence breakfast for me! that way I don't decide I''m hungry about 2pm and start eating crap

6:37 am

Ata my problem is that I really do forget. I will suddenly think I'm hungry and realise I had nothing at all to eat the previous day.

6:38 am

i can't eat breakfast either, but now when i feel hungry in between meals i eat a carrot or a celery stick. i read somewhere that if you eat a carrot 15 minutes before breakfast and lunch and then a celery stick before tea, you won't feel hungry after and it helps with digestion

6:38 am

I do too. And then when I decide I'm hungry, I have no proper food around and thus eat rubbish. It's soooo hard trying to eat proper meals each day!

6:39 am

Hah, finished the re's!

6:39 am

carrot sticks are the best

6:39 am

and r's in general. I must be DENSA material! :p

6:39 am

I generally can't be bothered to cook just for me and end up eating a handful of grapes.

is about 29 C... ... I am sooun ting on an splace 2m? love says the last 30whide ijj

sounding on* better temps for us all

hi owl!!! (((hugs)))

we have much dense material here! but the heat keeps us from going hot!

owl is the loveliest chickie on the planet (without acception) Maddison is a delight and would define!!

so, without further audience, I welcome Madnison, as our new mascot and welcome to all!

**Maddison, that is!

6:47 am

Are you OK MRP?

6:48 am

***wonders what on earth mrP is talking about***

6:48 am

I think the heat's got to her

6:49 am

Was just talking with my son. He has a good friend in Adelaide who is a fireman. Apparently they get flown in to fire areas when needed. Last time he was up in a helecopter dumping water.

6:49 am

A combination of lack of sleep, heat and whatever illness the 2 kids have at the moment. Maybe MRP is coming down with it too

6:50 am

Mrp you're rambling!

oh for goodness sakes! this computer is so unresponsive... just take it as a zanadoo welcome to farthest from our metal countings

6:51 am

rambling

ok, if I am ranting... apologies. I can't get the computer to word by foeverer

6:52 am

I found an ar 8. First 2 letters ONLY of the other 8?

6:53 am

7:27 am

I took a tub bath friday night with that vaseline beads stuff, praying it didn't come off then and went down the drain

8:00 am

kris - where is he now?

8:00 am

Perfs are a risk with upper endoscopy, but you would hope it would be recognized during the procedure.

8:01 am

KristineNas my thoughts and prayers are with you and your Famely.

8:01 am

8:42 am

now here is what I did with the boys when this happened (just once mind you) ... both of you go sit on the sofa. Now hold hands and remember this ... when it is all said and done, it will be the two of you to go through life together so you will get along and there will be no more of that.

8:42 am

down to 28 listless - woohoo

8:43 am

I won't do it and you can't make me

8:43 am

what a great lesson Mom, did it work?

after that you may get up off the sofa and continue playing babble, nicely

8:43 am

Mom, that is good advice. *kisses kje on the cheek*

9:26 am

insane-- we've gone from teens to 60s!

9:27 am

oh crossy..youre talking to an aussie whos trying to get used to 6inches of snow

5C?? that is very cold!!

Footballers' Wives is a very bizarre program!

It has Joan Collins in it!! she must be 70 now!

9:31 am

5C... mrp..that wpuld be a heat wave round me at the moment

hi rolin!

9:32 am

mrp..you have lotsa tree round you

we are having heatwave of 42C at the moment. I was outside.... (2.30am) and it is sprinkling humidity!

I do indeed! we live on a state forest

9:33 am

i used to live in vic..so ive been reading the papers for the fires...my nephews property was saved..but has no power..his daughter has a freind whose father is missing

9:35 am

*knot

I pray for her dad... please lord! see him safe through the wilderness and heat... come home to us and bring us peace of mind... amen

9:35 am

mrp Joan Collins is just about 75

oh frances, from the scene I just saw... that is obscene!!

9:36 am

footballers wives with joan collins??... how does that work?...its it aussie rules?

9:36 am

mrp I remember going to Kurringai Chase

une! come back soon!! am wanting to say hi and missing you

9:37 am

No it is an English programme

rolin... that show is incredibly complex, cunning and out of control!!

Frances! we have spent most of our children's lives at Kurringai Chase National Park!!

9:38 am

ooooh its OUR footballerds wives...didnt realise joan was in it...how pathetic

it is a beautiful place!!

indeed Rolin.... she is like the walking dead!

Joan was kissing a 22 year old male model type footballers!

well, if she can still 'pull' those young men in roles... she is doing bloody well!

9:40 am

It truly is beautiful there mrp.

oh where, oh where has my crossy gone?? oh where, oh where can he be???

frances, did you see a current photo of the river with Lickety's bike??

I will go put it up in profile for you??

9:42 am

im trying to defend the ability of aussie rules kicking to a rugby man..*sigh*

9:43 am

licketys bike is in the river?

let me get the pic rolin! LOL

9:44 am

Only time I ever saw Aussie rules was at Melbourne CRICKET ground.

9:44 am

yeah well... the cricket ground is the tradtional footy ground too..but now there are others to use

9:45 am

Great fun to watch

9:45 am

there has been a lot of fuss with the footie season extending..and not giving time for the pitchs to be established..downt know if its still going on

9:45 am

Good morning, all.

9:46 am

my partner ended up watching the footie grand final in a truly aussie houshold..he loved it

9:46 am

Hello Inge

9:46 am

9:46 am

Mr. Pres, just read your bio update, and wanted to give you a hug for fostering those siblings. And yes, your eye color is gorgeous, too.

9:48 am

Thank you for the picture mrp. Just as I remember it - minus the bike.

Bombers rule

9:49 am

9:49 am

9:49 am

mrp, I'm just looking at your address on google earth, and I'm wondering......which house is yours?

9:50 am

go bombers

9:50 am

9:51 am

its a good game mummy..but not as good as rugby union

9:51 am

yes, prefer aussie rules, having to endure the rugby today thogh

9:55 am

or

9:56 am

10:02 am

holy heck...! 90 dead in Victoria. this is just getting worse and worse... let us pray

10:03 am

Can't really identify no.35 from the bird's-eye view mrp!!!!

10:03 am

90?!...omg... and one of them is brian naylor...a childhood icon for me

10:04 am

Good Sunday, Babblers! Mr. P - was just reading about the wild fires in Aus. Very scarey.

10:04 am

Why are people unable to flee in time?

10:04 am

MM it puts a little square round it - I think that's the one.

10:04 am

isn't it terrible rolin!

10:05 am

just found it by typing no. 35 into the search box mrp

10:05 am

mrp......you have a lot of foliage on your roof

10:05 am

inge2, in australia, we are encouranged to stay and fight the embers that fall around our houses... it is part of what we do to protect our homes

10:06 am

we live right on the bush movie, but we keep the leaves clear.

10:06 am

did you google our address movieman?

10:06 am

Very sad.

10:06 am

yes i did mrp

10:06 am

in google earth of course

10:08 am

here is the news so far http://tinyurl.com/b4veox

10:08 am

mrp..ive just read the report in the age...marysville is gone..i used to go there when i was a kid..

10:09 am

theres an animal sanctuary in healesville nearby..by i havent heard anything about that

10:12 am

"The fires were driven by hot winds of more than 62 miles per hour, and temperatures that peaked at 117 degrees in Melbourne, making Saturday the city’s hottest day on record."

10:12 am

wow.

10:13 am

yeah...my son said it was 46.9 near him...

10:13 am

its officially australias worst natural disaster..

10:16 am

How close is it to Melbourne?

10:17 am

sorry, just had to put washing on

10:17 am

Looking at the map it seems to be getting very close to Melbourne.

10:18 am

I'm not surprised you can't sleep mrp.

10:18 am

yes, there are many towns that are 'wiped out'... very horrid for many

10:18 am

Just read the tinyurl. Situation even more horrifying to know that some of the fires are a result of arson.

10:19 am

If it is proved that arson was in some part to blame and the catch the culprits the least they should with is murder.

10:19 am

well inge...from the middle of the city it about 70 kms.. 37 miles appeox

10:19 am

hi all. clue for are 6 please?

10:19 am

...should be charged with..

10:20 am

hi judi... yes, is very very hard ... I can't express how bad that is. Some people are terribly sick in the head, and murderous

10:20 am

judi... the majority of all fires are lit by arsonists in aus

10:21 am

we have a fire service called SES... and it is volunteer. That is where the arsonists are.... very sick individuals

10:21 am

the first re5/10 plz

10:21 am

Rolin that is truly sick and they should be charged with murder.

10:21 am

a gew of us got into quite a discussion as to what should happen to the arsonist

10:22 am

few

10:22 am

Gee, ruru, death by fire sounds fair!

10:22 am

but how can they find them...not much cctv out in the bush

10:22 am

hi ruru... I have a syllabus for arsonists

10:22 am

Stand them in a fire pit and see how they like it.

10:22 am

that's kinda what I said judi and Babble got upset

10:23 am

re-lace your shoes is the first re 5/10

10:23 am

hang them upside down by their toes, and castrate them with nail clippers over hot coals

10:23 am

very slowly mrp.

10:23 am

no it's not ruru

10:23 am

some people pay for that service mr. p

10:24 am

then the other is to re + lubricate your car

10:24 am

Whatever floats their boats ruru

10:24 am

ty ruru

10:24 am

lol

10:24 am

mrp... you seem so sweet until put under pressure..and then you become maniacally creative..lol

10:25 am

I was saying that when they catch the arsonist that they shoudl burn his house down right in front of him

10:25 am

thanks rolin!!

10:25 am

anyone have a clue for ar 6 please? thanks.

10:25 am

youre welcome

10:25 am

Haven't found that one yet, mkg.

10:25 am

mkg,.,...think nipple

10:25 am

That is the nipple part I think mkg

10:26 am

indeed ruru! personally, I think I could oblige under those circumstances

10:26 am

and then herin would throw him in at the last minute

10:27 am

we had so many devastating fires our here last year.. I understand the fear

10:27 am

Lol ruru and mrp I think you would have a long line of volunteers to assist you.

10:27 am

Babble got really upset about this discussion though last night.. I wasn't sure why..

10:28 am

babble?? which babble?

10:28 am

babble rabble

10:28 am

babbler... babble... babble rabble...

10:28 am

oh really? what upset him?

10:29 am

Why? Should we sit the culprits down with a cup of tea and say there there, don't do that again.

10:29 am

I think not.

10:29 am

something about what about the arsonists family and them having nothing to do with it. I proposed that my understanding is that many of these losers are loners and weirdos

10:29 am

evening everyone. Playing Gala Bingo at the same time so will be in and out

10:29 am

Capital punishment is always a controversial issue. Some believe only God can judge.

10:30 am

that was the drift of it alright judi

10:30 am

herin was wanting to chop his head off (the arsonist that is)

10:30 am

Sorry but murderers get locked up and this is mass murder.

10:31 am

the arsonist family?? every murderer has a family and lives next door to someone

10:31 am

ty. got the ar 6 ! great clue./

10:31 am

Some one who deliberately sets a fire obviously has no regard for human life. I feel those people should be treated with the same regard.

10:31 am

to me that is an easy judgement for me to make

10:32 am

clue for et 6 pleae?

10:32 am

Well, I must relinquish the computer to my hubby for a while. See you kids later.

10:32 am

we are hearing alot here about arsonists not 'realising' what they are doing is ultimately murder... I think they know just what they are doing... propelling a bad situation into a critical and deadly place. It gives them a thrill

10:33 am

star in french mkg

10:33 am

mkg et6/18 twinkle twinkle

10:33 am

they have to know that they are about to kill people..innocent people and firemen and police officers etc

10:34 am

indeed ruru

10:35 am

I said to Babble that all too often they only get slapped on the hand and go to a psychiatric ward for a few years and get released and off free and clear...they should be tried for murder and those charges apply

10:35 am

How can they not realise? It isn't like having a bonfire in the back garden.

10:35 am

I agree

10:35 am

ruru, that applies here.

10:35 am

With what is happening over there no one can use that excuse

10:35 am

we had some deliverately set out here that killed people too

10:36 am

a friend of ours lost everything

10:36 am

sad thing is... people fight for what they have, a die for it... arsonists know this and enjoy the game.

10:37 am

mrp I hope we are not adding to your distress. I know how much you need to sleep.

10:37 am

oh ruru! how awful for your friend

10:37 am

Are you safe for now mr. P?

10:39 am

In cases such as these how do you stand with insurance? Is everything covered or is it deemed an act of God - unless proved to be arson?

10:40 am

I think fire insurance directly covers fire damage and isn't considered an act of god...

10:40 am

ah, sleep... yes, that doesn't come easy anymore. It is 3.40am, but I have slept and am now awake for a while.

10:40 am

we are safe for now ruru

10:40 am

Just thinking of the bush fire aspect ruru.

10:40 am

I believe in the separation of church and state, and also the separation of church and insurance companies

10:41 am

fire is covered in our insurance. property value isn't covered, but house is.

10:41 am

So mrp you wouldn't get reimbursed for the loss of everything

10:42 am

arson is covered, as long as it doesn't lead back to the insurer

10:42 am

?

10:42 am

I didn't really mean to upset babble, but I do feel strongly about evening out the scales of justice in matters like this

10:42 am

no frances... most people walk away with the value of the home, and set up elsewhere

10:42 am

it is a terrible loss

10:43 am

A truly terrible loss which made me think of practicalities.

10:43 am

ruru, when did this discussion take place??

10:44 am

gee right before the flip I think

10:44 am

ok... might take a peek at the premise

10:45 am

I have to make coffee. I hope you stay safe and sound and the wather changes for you

10:45 am

weather

10:48 am

thanks ruru darling

10:49 am

it is cool now, let's hope the rain comes in soon!! It would help with the fires greatly

10:50 am

mrp..have you slept at all tonight?

10:50 am

*** prays for rain for MR. P ***

10:51 am

indee ruru!! is the only thing we can pray for now

3:38 pm

good clue dc.. had it but..

3:38 pm

oh i had a great weekend, but NH is next week. yesterday was lunch in the city with my daughter... In the Heights (on broadway) then Judy Collins last nite

3:39 pm

do you have not that one, but to6? or TO6, said pooh

3:39 pm

oh what fun, dorens

3:39 pm

today was answering phones at the radio station i volunteer at. public radio, all jazz

3:39 pm

So you have another week to train for XC-skiing in NH, Doren!

3:39 pm

yup, dc. i probably am missing really obvious ones

3:39 pm

to4 expands to a 5,6,6,8

3:40 pm

to4.7 is easily missable

3:40 pm

ooh which to4?

3:40 pm

3:40 pm

hard work, leslie

3:41 pm

ah, thanks!

3:41 pm

Total body workouts, Doren, wind sprints, weight-lifting, pilates and yoga...that should have you ready for a 6K ski through the woods.

3:41 pm

had the to4/7, but not the 5.6.6,8 thanks

3:42 pm

only 4 to go,struggling a bit!

3:42 pm

3:43 pm

Doren, go to a really tall building and run up and down the stairs for a few hours.

3:44 pm

8:34 pm

Hi Jmc and everyone else.

8:34 pm

thnx all

Not anything I am aware of as a named condition, but odd sensations do occur to people....

8:35 pm

im back for the last 22 and will probably need with every single one of them.

Hi, Jindigo

Dan the puppy noises have alarmed my doggie...he keeps "looking" for the noise.

8:38 pm

Atalante, have you started on any new drugs

8:38 pm

thanks Ata - we have never had this many dogs at once (even though 8 of them together weigh less than our 'permanent' dog)

8:38 pm

Thanks Jellen

8:38 pm

haha red - that happens with our dog too

8:38 pm

love Aussie Shepherds

have any of the Pups been "adopted" yet (in advance of being ready to leave?)

8:39 pm

81 to go

8:39 pm

no ... but I guess it only started after I started taking all my bipolar drugs. it's prolly another side effect now you mention it! joy :P

8:39 pm

do you take Abidify

8:40 pm

do you know what sort of dog the father was, dan?

8:40 pm

I just had the worst side affects ever

It could definitely be a side effect Ata, I didnt think of meds.

8:40 pm

no adoptions yet - rescueangels.org is the site for applications - we're not sure of the father - a couple of the pups look sort of labradorish

8:40 pm

like my mind was too fact for my body

8:40 pm

AR 5/10 please?

8:40 pm

heebee jeebees

8:40 pm

nope, luckily! I didn't either till just now, never even occurred to me

8:41 pm

that's what I was wondering - a few definitely don't look fully shepherd

8:41 pm

ar + French for summer

Well, you are getting a lot of views. As they get a bit larger..I hope they get great homes.

8:41 pm

yes ... mind won't stop, skin crawling, la la la la la bounce

8:41 pm

Thanks again Jellen

that sounds like side effect Ata.

8:42 pm

hmmm actually I took my tabs really late today. Wonder if there's a correlation. Will experiment.

8:42 pm

apparently dogs can be fertilized from a few different fathers in the same heat, but they never have any more pups than they have teats (the amazing things you learn from whelping!)

8:42 pm

red I'm sure we will before early April

8:43 pm

some do ... but I think it's rare - some poor dog had 18 puppies recently over here!

8:44 pm

ata, it took me 7 days to get off the abilify

8:44 pm

it was horrible

8:44 pm

wowzers 18

8:45 pm

7 days isn't actually too bad compared to such ant-depressants!

8:45 pm

but I can imagine the hell

8:45 pm

11:38 pm

Thans Jell. x

11:40 pm

Am wondering now if my freezing cold feet will elicit just a small squeak from The One In The Bed, or a full on 'You're blody freezing. woman!' removal of nice warm body from bed.

11:41 pm

Sometimes, I wonder if these men have read the Handbook. The one that informs them that they are our bodywarmers come what may.

11:41 pm

The latter would be unfortunate...

11:42 pm

i go with the squeak..

11:42 pm

Hi, ruru!

11:42 pm

speaking as a foot warmer that is..

11:42 pm

hi jellen

11:42 pm

Hey Jac! ruru! Jellen! I'm done ....

11:42 pm

that is why GOd gave women cold extremities

11:43 pm

Congrats, PAV!

11:43 pm

Okay, ruru if he goes, then I gwt in with you and you can squeak alll you like.

11:43 pm

LOL

11:43 pm

and being the independently single person, why don't women just wear socks to bed?

11:43 pm

I do more than squeak..lol

11:43 pm

Socks just don't work, for some reason...

11:44 pm

pav.. come on.. women's feet need warm flesh..

11:44 pm

that's what slippers are for...the sheepskin variety

11:45 pm

I do wear socks, ruru, but they don't really scream sex siren, do they?

11:45 pm

I can understand a nice foot massage (periodic)

11:45 pm

no not really

11:46 pm

Pav .. i know why you are single...

11:46 pm

and with the light out who looks at fe4 anywhoooo?

11:46 pm

I'm going to wander off to see if the warm flesh accepts my cold extremities.*GINS*

11:46 pm

'Night all.x

11:46 pm

goodnight jac.. start slowly

11:46 pm

Bye, Jac

11:47 pm

I'm single by choice...too independent and stubborn in my ways....

11:48 pm

yep I kinda figured that out

11:49 pm

although I did interrupt a smoldering domestic violence issue yesterday with a well timed phone call to the local police dept...a real man doesn't need to resort to violence or threats.

11:50 pm

good for you pav.. well done

11:50 pm

bless you Pav

11:50 pm

and why do the police make excuses for the guy "who is out of work and having money probs?"

11:50 pm

Yes, PAV...good you could intervene...

11:50 pm

and no... that wouldn't be a real man.. that would be a bully and an abuser

11:51 pm
