whoops i'm out of practice sorry

12:22 am

this is one time I'm glad to see a ji5/24

12:24 am

my mom called late this afternoon to let me know where exactly my brother and family will be this weekend as they watch and chaperone my niece/goddaugh participate in a group dance competition...just in case I wanted to show up on my own...without an expressed invite from my brother or my niece...

12:24 am

seeing her perform is a good thing, yes, pav?

12:24 am

PAV sounds like my mother

12:25 am

ah Pav, be big, go and enjoy

12:25 am

families can be forgetful about niceties

12:25 am

I don't know about watching dance competitions...I get bored really quickly...

12:25 am

indeed, jilli

12:26 am

but it might mean something to your niece/goddaughter

12:26 am

i love to watch them

12:26 am

I already have standing plans...that put me in the neighborhood +- 30 miles...

12:26 am

good for you, Pav

12:26 am

I second flosey heartily

12:26 am

If I were to attend I would try to not be conspicuous and let them know I was present

12:27 am

bravo!

12:27 am

62 left i am out poof

12:27 am

well done MLF, goodnight

12:28 am

I go to events I find out about; I just don't sit with "them"...but I'm sure there for my nieces/nephews

12:28 am

well done, mlf

12:29 am

she called me last month...and while waiting and asking if there was anything else she wanted to talk about, she didn't say anything about coming...it was after that I spoke with my younger sis and she told me they had been planning to come out to AZ for this competition...but it seemed obvious they weren't going to tell me...my mom sa4 as much today...

12:30 am

strange way to treat godfather

12:31 am

wtg grem

12:31 am

I remember when I was 11 and in a gym demonstration at school -- my dad was in Hong Kong and my mother in Japan, making reservations for our trip to England before I turned 12 and doubled the fare -- she was due back that day and I was so anxious that she be there to see me succeed at a particularly difficult vault called the Short Fly. I asked other parents if they'd seen her and they said they were sure she'd be there. I did my best and made the vault just in case she was, but I think she hadn't been able to make it in time. She never let on. But I still remember every detail.

12:31 am

wtg grem

12:31 am

this is the younger bro who disinvited the poopies (and I ) from his home on New Year's Day 2009

12:32 am

YAY grem!

12:32 am

ah Pav, hate to see families behave that way

12:32 am

yay grem!

12:32 am

well, Jilli, you know your mother would have been there if at all possible

12:33 am

my "family" is multi-generational dysfunctional

12:33 am

Yes, flosey -- my point is that a kid really cares about who is there for support

12:34 am

absolutely

12:34 am

I positively LOVE the blue in your photo flosey!

12:34 am

no need to contribute to dysfunctionality

12:34 am

that's why I always try to go the children's events...it's the adults I don't deal with anymore

12:35 am

thanks Pav, I chose this pic because of the colour

12:35 am

so...I shall have to act interested in the dance routines?

12:35 am

it's a great color, flosey!

12:35 am

thanks Pini

12:35 am

Just in your goddaughter, pav

12:35 am

12:57 am

must get to bed now...way past my bedtime!

12:58 am

felt kind of stupid when I found it

12:58 am

On my way as well -- good night, everyone :)

12:59 am

12:59 am

12:59 am

flosey -- Coronation was 1952 I think -- Lawrence Olivier narrating -- such a presence of history

1:00 am

night nan

1:01 am

oh -- just scrolled back -- nan says 1953, correct, I'm sure

1:01 am

oh, thanks jilli, was lost in the grid here

1:01 am

hey jill hey flosey

1:02 am

hi there stid

1:02 am

hi stiddie

1:02 am

it was 1953 Jilli, a year after King George died

1:03 am

So I see -- I just remembered that 1952 death of Geroge VI

1:04 am

I don't remember 1952... *grin*

1:04 am

I can barely remember 1972!

1:04 am

George -- I keep typing Geroge, lol!

1:04 am

hahaha stid

1:04 am

that's not entirely true... 1972 was the year we moved back to the mainland.

1:05 am

*yawn* down to 49 but not NBT yet. *determined mama look*

1:05 am

sometimes I forget that you both have memories that much longer. I wonder if I will ever be as wise (or be able to remember things) the way you do!

1:05 am

40 left here...

1:05 am

This film was shot in colour -- spectacular.

1:06 am

go PAV go!

1:06 am

...feeling like the baby in the bunch....my parents were born in 1953 and you are remembering things from then

1:06 am

ah, interesting jilli, I think her wedding was black and white, if I remember correctly

1:07 am

yep, you're even younger than I am, ormal! LOL

1:07 am

Apparently it had never been shown on TV before. Catch it if you can on reruns.

1:07 am

they released some video today of Her Majesty when she was just 4 years old... on the BBC news today

1:07 am

I will, I remember watching it at the time

1:07 am

oh her wedding was so spectacular. I love watching reruns of it!

1:08 am

well, she's just a year older than I am...

1:08 am

hmmm, if not on tv, where did I see it - I remember it quite distinctly

1:08 am

youtube, flosey?

1:09 am

no, youtube was unheard of in my memory

1:10 am

The Coronation was much more spectacular, and Olivier's narrative and explanation of each step is rivetting

1:10 am

I'm drooping...must try and rest up and beatify my face for the upcoming painted on "elated" look...

1:10 am

I love all those royal reruns

1:10 am

sweet dreams PAV (why painted on elated?)

1:11 am

2:06 am

2:07 am

Hello jilli. I'm lurking again. Other J sounds like booze.

2:08 am

2:08 am

this looks like a Friends of JC club

2:08 am

You're welcome jilli.

2:09 am

got the boozey one , and its the 'islamic negativity' I dont have

2:09 am

ji + past tense of to have

2:10 am

Thanks Jilli, I can only dream of having your vocab

2:10 am

well, the news is full of that term these days ;)

2:13 am

2:14 am

2:22 am

Ten left for after cricket.

2:23 am

Thanks jilli. Haven't been home for almost four weeks now. Still looking after dog for son. They are stuck in Spain until 02 May! Should have been back 20APril.

2:25 am

I suppose because of the ash, frances?

2:27 am

Yes. It has all been a bit of a nightmare. Seven year old granddaughter should have been back at school on 21April. She sent e-mail to her teacher asking for some work to be getting on with. She absolutely adores school and is missing it so much.

2:28 am

Good for her!

2:28 am

I encourage her as much as I can - without trying to appear as too pushy.

2:29 am

How old is she?

2:30 am

She is seven.

2:30 am

She is trying - without too much success - to teach me Swedish and Spanish.

2:30 am

. . . . and she is learning French.

2:31 am

Oh my, clever kid!

2:31 am

Of course, childhood is the best time for learning languages

2:31 am

She is very clever. Just dowsn't seem to realise it.

2:32 am

*doesn't.

2:32 am

That's just fine.

2:33 am

I am so proud of her. She is the best thing in my life.

2:34 am

How lovely -- I gather she's close by?

2:35 am

She is - usually. I manage to see her most days.

2:35 am

Lucky you, and lucky her!

2:36 am

I think it is great. It means that I learn lots of new things (or things I'd forgotten) every day.

2:38 am

hello. could someone give me a clue for the in/8, or the letter that comes after the n...thanx

2:38 am

2:42 am

Night jilli. Sleep well.

2:43 am

*poof*

2:53 am

May I please have a clue for me5-12? Thanks

2:54 am

Gap me5/12 - high IQ club.

2:55 am

Thanks so much, Frances.

2:55 am

You're welcome gap.

2:59 am

good morning everybody. What a little grid for a Saturday!

3:02 am

Hello ruby. Just as well as I have to go to cricket today.

3:02 am

playing or watching? lol

3:02 am

Good night everyone....it's 4:01AM here and I must hit my pillow. I still have 7 left. Good luck to all.

3:03 am

Oh! Pretty sparkly things.

3:03 am

Scoring ruby. I'm a cricket scorer.

3:03 am

that sounds like it would be wonderful!

3:04 am

It will be this weekend because the weather is wonderful.

3:04 am

I didn't know ladies were allowed on the pitch. Years ago I lived across the street from Lords', on the 9th floor, and my son and I (he was 4) used to watch, incomprehensibly, endless test matches

3:04 am

Bye gap. Sleep well.

3:05 am

I love cricket. Ladies do actually play the game.

3:05 am

shows how old I am!

3:06 am

Well I'm no spring chicken ruby!

3:14 am

better get dressed....

3:45 am

morning all

3:51 am

and for those who have paid attention to the themes, the hairy-nosed dolphin is jumping around in this grid.

3:51 am

Morning spritey sprite, was buried in a grid full of phantons.

3:52 am

hi FM, so it is a chewy one?

3:52 am

It's not flowing for me yet.

3:54 am

I even tried the opera

3:55 am

lol, can't tell yo uhow many words I ahve tried that didn't fit. Oh for a g so we could have ing endings.

3:56 am

ouch, yes. For the lack of a horse, the war was lost... for the lack of a letter, the babble grid was tight and small...

3:57 am

Back in 5, time for morning coffee.

3:57 am

please bring me one too?

3:58 am

Enjoy the cricket Frances. Not only the world's greatest game - it's also spawned the world's greatest sporting literature. Sadly, on my side of the planet, bats and balls have now been put away for the winter.

4:04 am

Fresh pot of coffe and muffins in the PB

good morning all. any clues for the wa 6-33 and wa 7-48 please

4:05 am

hello, back for a few minutes with, hopefully, fresh eyes!

4:05 am

Hello sprite and FM

4:05 am

yay, thanks FM :) *jumps fence without paying the entrance fee of one valid word*

4:05 am

hi sandra, hi rubyfoo

4:05 am

wa7 builds on wa4/9, one who does it

4:05 am

Morning ruby and Hi sand, I am missing those w's too

4:05 am

I have one wa6/33 which means cleaner

4:06 am

no, wa6, sorry

i have that one

4:06 am

4:06 am

I was hoping for a huge grid today. Got most of my gardening done the last two days

4:06 am

yay

4:06 am

*hands round mugs of coffee*

4:07 am

ty FM

4:07 am

It's too dry to do anything in the garden apart from water at the mo.

4:08 am

I did all the window boxes and other pots and some little geraniums in one of the borders

4:08 am

Oh well done you!

4:09 am

mind you, you are so much further south. WE are still getting heavy frosts although this w/e it could go as high as 70!

4:09 am

I made a strange planting in an antique bronze pot on the deck: purple celosia, some other purple/white many-flowered plant, last year's purple succulents + parseley, chives and basil. Very odd-looking, but nice

4:10 am

the local wisdom here is not to plant before 10 May but, after all, I'm not a local! lol

4:10 am

I am coughing, blowing my nose and sneezing, feeling generally awful while taking care of my sick daughter, and looking out of the window to the garden I am not tending... only the potatoes went in as planned.

4:10 am

yes, huge amount of pollen!!!!

4:10 am

every day, evrything is coated with green

4:10 am

Oh poor spriety sprite and daughter.

4:11 am

parsley* usual careless typing

4:11 am

*stamps foot* I wanna be well!

4:11 am

how about birds, sprite?

4:11 am

what about them, rubyfoo?

4:11 am

yes, it is about time for you to feel better!!!! we are all wishing for it.....

4:11 am

You will be sprite but in little steps.

4:12 am

you bring sunshine to our chog and deserve to feel better

4:12 am

yeah... I know... just having a hidden tantrum day.

4:12 am

do you have a lot in front of your windows?

4:12 am

thanks guys :)

4:12 am

a phantom tantrum?

4:13 am

oh yes, loads of birds. We are living very close to a nature preservation area and it is amazing how many birds we get to see.

4:13 am

lol, that has a nice ring, rubyfoo. But no, just hidden (in my little room) and not a phantom at all.

4:15 am

I saw a new bird this AM, arguing with our "resident" birds - small, black and white - making himself as tall as possible and fighting with the green finches

4:15 am

Ha found todays grid fish!

4:16 am

wtg FM, even more because fish itself is a phantom!

4:16 am

I thought that was a joke! there is really always a fish?

4:16 am

Quite often ruby but not always.

4:17 am

there usually is, rubyfoo. We used to be alert to them and pick them out every day. Not so much now, I am always happy when somebody remembers :)

4:17 am

oh, I got it, too lol

4:19 am

Think I had better get act together and head out to do shopping and stuff now as I want to spend some time in the garden this afternoon before work. Happy chats and Happy Babbling.

4:20 am

bye dear FM, have a lovely day

4:20 am

bye fm! have fun in the sun!

4:23 am

does anybody have the beginning of the 8? or, better yet, a hint?

4:23 am

not yet, but I have just started to look for the 8. We should be able to find it together.

4:24 am

you will find it first, I'm sure

4:24 am

my usual approach is to first check the prefixes, like re, en, in.

4:25 am

6:55 am

6:56 am

nor lephrecauns unless I'm tryng to insult a very small person

6:57 am

I stand corrected. I thought it was just the 'un' version of the eating thing. As for leprechauns.... don't get me started. Lol

7:09 am

Soodle, I love your icon too. That's why there are four computers in our house.

7:10 am

: )

7:12 am

*pops in* Soodle, number 12 in your profile made me chuckle ;)

7:12 am

The leprachauns have clearly gotten into my head. I am stuck on a 4 letter word. The very first DI, Please

That was specially for you, NB!!

7:13 am

7:30 am

swaj n

7:30 am

lol, i think i need some coffee

7:32 am

LOL Esprit! I remember hearing of some company that made vacuum cleaners with blades inside the the hose, to cut up waste so it wouldn't get blocked - it was very effective but they had to withdraw it from the market, too many male injuries...ouch!

OMG!!!!

that is one BAD idea!

7:33 am

7:53 am

Anzac Day is a national day of remembrance in Australia and New Zealand, and is commemorated by both countries on 25 April every year to honour members of the Australian and New Zealand Army Corps (ANZAC) who fought at Gallipoli in Turkey during World War I. It now more broadly commemorates all those who died and served in military operations for their countries. Anzac Day is also observed in the Cook Islands, Niue, Samoa and Tonga.

8:02 am

I am thinking about that 8 too

8:02 am

8:06 am

8:07 am

Monkey found fe6 + in8--new words for me.

8:08 am

Mom the fe6 comes before the fe5

8:09 am

thanks Lynxxx, that helps

8:09 am

hi lynxxxie, How is Stewart?

8:10 am

good morning friends! oh dear, no babbling for my kids today ! (again)

8:10 am

Hi Trif

8:11 am

Good for you, Trif.

8:12 am

scrabbler, sorry, I feel like I am always asking you stuff, but I do have yet another question - Cinnamon bunny is literally shedding his own weight in fur every day - is that normal for this time of year?

8:12 am

Trif, Yes I agree with you on the cu4 days.

8:12 am

mind you, they have seen my icon photo, so how high and mighty am I? ha ha ha

8:13 am

Rabbits do shed but I never see a pattern. Miss Bea always sheds and she has think, silky fur. Sebastian never seems to shed. Gandalf + Tucker do not shed much. Brush Cinnamon well everyday.

8:13 am

this will have to wait. I have to get ready to go out. **sigh**

8:14 am

Oh Mom, have a great day.

8:14 am

bye Mom

8:14 am

{{Hugs}} to all of you and I appreciate the help.

8:14 am

will do, and thanks! I occasional have to take the vacuum to him too, which he LOVES -- thinks it's a massage, i guess....

8:14 am

{{{Annie}}} bye bye

8:14 am

*thick

8:14 am

and bye bye SeaSpray

8:14 am

funny/scary icon Trif...birds en masse have always given me the willies after "The Birds"

8:15 am

Yes, funny icon, Trif.

8:15 am

Oh No - don't take the vacuum to the bunny!

8:15 am

LOL lynxxx, i could not agree more! Swans scare the wits out of me. They are so big, and they always look ready to honk one to death.

8:16 am

I love swans--I have kayaked near them many times.

8:16 am

(prev vacuum discussion - read back in chat)

8:16 am

I use the upholstery tool, lynxxx, and he really does love it. it's not like I put him on the floor and roll over him....

8:16 am

Hahaha, Trif.

8:17 am

Just had a vision of the beater bar beating up on the bunny

8:17 am

it all started from absolutely desperation, when one of the girls brushed cinnamon inside, which is strictly verboten. it looked like an angora rabbit exploded in the living room

8:18 am

I bring my bunnies out to the back deck, hold them on the table and pull out the shedding fur.

8:18 am

I cannot delay the inevitable any longer. I am going to wash the kitchen floor. bye dear babblers.

8:18 am

I had a white himilayan cat for 17 years, can relate Trif

8:18 am

Bye Annie

8:18 am

bye annie!

8:18 am

Bye Annie

8:19 am

bye Annie

8:19 am

i am being a complete sloth today and having my self a fine old babble-in

8:20 am

Today will be sunny and mid-60's so I will be outdoors all day. Tomorrow will rain all day so I will shop and clean.

8:20 am

8:20 am

8:21 am

hello tanja

8:21 am

8:21 am

Hi Crossy

8:21 am

hi Crossy

8:22 am

Hi Crossy!

8:22 am

hello sea spray! always lovely to see your sweet little icon

Hello everyone.

8:22 am

ty Trif, he is snoozing at the moment

8:23 am

I am taking the kids to look at a kayak today, scrabbler. we are thinking we might buy it, but not unless we all agree on it, and we are all putting money in for it

8:23 am

hi 67

8:24 am

Hi sixty

8:24 am

Hi 67

8:24 am

i am eyeballing a used ocean kayak:)

8:24 am

A tandem (2-seater)?

8:24 am

howdy 67 and all the rest;)

8:24 am

single seat scrabbs

8:25 am

lots of storage

8:25 am

this one is so pissa, crossy - it's made out of the same stuff they make jet windshields out of, thus....transparent! how cool is that! and yes, it's a tandem, scrabbler. it's sort of a canoe/kayak hybrid

8:25 am

daggone it, 18 pound cat wants to play babble, he is right beside me trying to get on the keyboard

8:25 am

sound nice trif

8:26 am

here is a link, but this is not where we are getting it, nor what we are paying! http://www.hammacher.com/Product/10343 ?source=FROOGLE

8:26 am

Sounds great, Trif.

8:26 am

omg! look at that thing!!

8:27 am

wild

8:27 am

And you need a rack + straps for transport.

8:27 am

thanks scrabbler. having been schooling the kids on "how to look disinterested" in hopes of getting price even lower....ha ha ha! we are SO new englanders!

8:28 am

I bought my car used, and it came with the roof rack already on it....I am taking this as a sign....

8:28 am

I cannot get in 8 noway, nohow. What is the third letter Please?

8:28 am

f, inge

8:29 am

and now I want to watch the wizard of oz....

8:29 am

I have never seen one like that, Trif. Go to ORS Direct for racks. http://www.orsracksdirect.com/

8:29 am

Hi Inge

8:29 am

Trif--you will need foam cushions + straps.

8:30 am

the one im looking at is similar to this http://www.oceankayak.com/kayaks/angle r_editions/prowler_trident_11_angler.h tml

8:30 am

I think that since we live so near a pond, so near the ocean, and my mom has a summer house near a pond, we would all just love it, and use it a lot. if we stop using it so much in a couple of years, i can sell it on to another, younger family....

8:30 am

thanks scrabbler!

8:31 am

oh, crossy, that looks like a great one!!!

8:32 am

$850.00 two years used

8:32 am

hi folks (could someone's legs sunburn in the clear kayak?)

8:33 am

what does it list for?

8:33 am

I am not sure welki, but we fair haired folk oil up every single day we go outside....I fry like a termite

8:34 am

about twice that fully loaded

8:34 am

welki, by the way, have you read the gospel of the flying spaghetti monster? given your icon, you might find it very enjoyable....

8:34 am

sounds like a great deal, crossy!

8:34 am

Goodnight people

8:34 am

i love how it looks, and i guess 'sitting like a lady' isn't an issue when kayaking :)

8:34 am

nite lynxxx

8:35 am

not really welki,cause i doubt you would be wearing a dress

8:35 am

oh gosh, no, welki. not on our pond anyway! I usually wear a bathing suit, as I like to jump out halfway across the pond and swim in. great exercise and the kids like to race me in the canoe my mom has

8:36 am

it is awesome looking Trif, the kids will love it!

8:36 am

i hope you get it trif,it looks very interesting

8:36 am

i have a lot of bathing suit cover up thing that is like a dress, crossy, so you never really know

8:36 am

<--- would have to be prudent about scratching itches *lol*

8:37 am

it all depends on whether or not the guy will let me use paypal, which will enable me to put it on my credit card. have about $75 in checking until the next pay day, unfortunately. he has been listing in on craiglist for ages, thus he may be motivated to be a bit more flexible in the price

8:37 am

Fireworks, danke

8:37 am

huzzah for inge!

8:38 am

well done inge!

8:38 am

Yay Inge!

8:39 am

9:17 am

Hi Owl.

9:18 am

I want to start gardening but I cannot plant annuals til the end of May.

9:19 am

we got -4c last night scrabbs,so no planting yet either

9:19 am

but all the bulb flowers are up..looks nice

9:20 am

My perennials are growing well but I don't want to add manure, soil or mulch until I put in some annuals. So that leaves raking branches, twigs, leaves.

nice here but going to storm and go back to mid fifties

9:21 am

That is us tomorrow but today will be sunny + mid-60s.

9:22 am

shiver at the thought - still quite warm tonight and tomororw and most importantly NO rain so the kids won't get wet

spring came early, easy to forget it's not summer

9:23 am

18 left for later. Time to shower and get outside in the sunshine. Bye all.

bye scrabs

9:25 am

reading back over chog crossy, wifey and I would both be minus arms

9:31 am

hey, mom :-)

9:31 am

HI Une and everyone

hi mom

ah, unusaul grid. need 17 and still too early to ask for clues

9:33 am

how is your foot, TO?

sorry, make that 27. wa6 stopped, bb;

mom it is better, there is conflicting info re the subject. one said dry skin contributes so i am going to begin to moisturize overnight

small thing, and makes for pretty feet, too

9:34 am

wouldn't have thought that. Good idea though

9:35 am

it will indeed

9:35 am

especially when wearing sandals

dr said it is systemic and hereditary. if it is small plugs of cholesterol as researched. perhaps time to get ine checked

9:37 am

had never heard of such a thing

9:37 am

yes, perhaps you should

well he did not say there was a conncetion nor did anyof the research - that systemic high cholesterol had anything to do with it. just the way it acts in the body.

i mean cholesterol is brain food, we all need some

9:39 am

I have an abundance of cholesterol :)

9:39 am

you seem to always eat healthy though

ok, must go hang wa4. later, all

9:39 am

bye bye TO

hi babblonia

10:10 am

hah! thanks ru... came just in time for a word i might have missed

10:10 am

hi dorens

10:10 am

hi dorens hi jm

10:11 am

had a nice time in the mission area last night

10:11 am

went to see balmy alley

10:11 am

hi j. when is the dc meet up? or is it baltimore?

10:11 am

happening area isn't it?

10:12 am

its baltimore on May 8 at 1

10:12 am

hola

10:12 am

it was fun we started at a bar and then wandered around and ended at a taqueria

10:12 am

ah.. may 8. that is mom's day. my daughter would kill me .. and my mother would too

10:12 am

mission area.. j are you in san diego?

10:13 am

the details are on my profile

10:13 am

mother's day is the next day

10:13 am

i am in san francisco

10:14 am

cool. i'll just miss you by four months is all

10:14 am

there are MANY great taquerias in the mission...good choice.

10:15 am

yah, mom's day weekend is what i meant.. if I were to go down to Bmore I wouldn't be back in time for the fantastic brunch she intends to make for me, or take me to, or whatever... will just have to plan a trip to DC someday and see whichever of you i can find when I do get there

10:15 am

never met a taqueria i didn't like

10:15 am

(Dorens could use some TLC right now)

10:16 am

i agree.. about taquerias

10:16 am

oh what's up dorens?

10:16 am

oh ruru, he ended up buying my ticket to CA for me.. first class round trip.. even tho he's not going

10:16 am

well j, lost my job and my man

10:16 am

oh no!

10:16 am

i knew things were rocky at work

10:17 am

more upset about the job actually... and there is always hope... everyone should contact their senators and implore them to vote for harkins' bill. "keeping our educators working". If they can bail out ford, AGI, and the banks, why not schools?

10:17 am

{{hugs}}

10:18 am

i totally support that! I will consider who I can talk to on the hill

10:18 am

I agree completely dorens.. education and schools come first.

10:18 am

ken was fantastic in many ways (wine, vacations, dinner out, etc) but he didn't talk. and that was always kind of hard for me.

10:19 am

they dump billions into nasa.. so some geeks can play spaceship and our country needs the $ spent elsewhere

10:19 am

if the harkins bill passes, NJ will have enough money to put a lot of school staff back in their jobs. and hopefully me!

10:19 am

stopping in say hi to dorens and to everybody - so sorry to hear about your news, doren - is there a chance your district will be rehiring/taking back staff if money comes through?

10:19 am

was he moody? Dorens?

10:20 am

yes j, absolutely. unfortunately our budget was defeated so we don't know how many MORE cuts will come through first

10:21 am

sort of ruru, but even in good mood he was not a communicator. few words... i was always trying to come up with topics of conversation... and he often responded with two or three words.. we were one of those couples you see at restaurants who rarely talk. and i was uncomfortable with that.

10:21 am

it's really sad - cuts will mean severe disruptions to programs - in our district staff STILL do not know who's being let go, transferred, etc. Here's my news: retirement papers are filled out and ready to submit this week -

10:22 am

smart joanne.... with what may be coming down the pike in august. that is another hope... if five people retire, that might bring back my job

10:22 am

did your budget pass?

10:22 am

im sorry for your loss doerns.up here it is also dog eat dog.i spent years in middle management only to be tossed after 15 years.now everyone is fighting the college studlent for MC jobs, many have 3 mCjobs going at once to keep afolat because the old jobs are long gone;( all the high end factory jobs gone, govt jobs are posted for a week then given to relatives..

10:23 am

no budget was voted down, it's now in the city council, so probably cuts will be worse - there is a terrible groundswell of hate-filled attacks on administrators and supervisors, I guess they think we just sit around eating bonbons all day. When we all retire or positions are cut, they will understand what our work entails

10:24 am

yes crossy... it is just ironic.. as counselors i've been dealing with families who've lost jobs, even homes, and I've been sympathetic, but always grateful that my job was secure (school jobs usually are)

10:24 am

I feel really bad for those who are left, though, they will be doing double and triple the work, because of reduced staff

10:24 am

argh my staffer is a libertarian telling me it is good that the schools are failing

10:24 am

yup j, they will be in for some rude awakenings and rocky years in the schools if these cuts are made. and pity those still iin the schools

10:25 am

afternoon all, sorry about the job Dorens

10:25 am

good luck everyone - i'm off for a while - Chinese class!

10:25 am

ty katie. and jmc... if i met that staffer right now i'd become violent. enjoy jbv!

10:27 am

my nonviolence is being tested

10:27 am

you can't fire this person just for being an idiot, can you?

10:28 am

no no that would not be good

10:28 am

my good friend who owns a furniture store in Queens speaks fluent chinese and he is jewish and looks very Jewish.. you should see these chinese guys come in his store and he starts speaking with them..

10:28 am

lol ru

10:28 am

it's awful when they make a bad situation even worse our HR department is shocking, in our staff survey I sa** that they were held in contempt after the treatment of staff at our restruture - and I came out of it well

10:29 am

he's just mainly young

10:29 am

I like working for myself (self-employed)

10:29 am

maybe i will move to brooklyn with my daughter and he can give me a job ruru. i am jewish and learned a bit of mandarin when i was in high school

10:30 am

lol here is how tight it is.the big oil guys have made my margins so tight that i can no longer take air miles with a credit card !! you take an amex for example who charge us 4% on total sale,then get a moron get 20 dollars of regular on it and try to use airmiles,so on 20 dollars we pay 4% plus 20 cents an airmile..our margin is 4 cents a litre! omfg!....sorry in done venting

10:30 am

jmc, that is even more shameful. young people are supposed to hold more liberal views, particularly socially. i never could understand young people with conservative politics

10:31 am

venting ok crossy. no probs. time for me to go now, though. bbl

10:31 am

tc dorens

10:32 am

he's not a conservative -- a libertarian

10:32 am

dorens -- hello and gd bye!!!!

10:37 am

my mrs is bad,she bites her nails..probably cause of me;)

10:37 am

and it's getting worse, naturally on the weekend

10:37 am

i've even got pink flowers painted on two of them, not sure how that will go down at work when I get back

10:37 am

I bite my nails too; too early weaning, I fear

10:38 am

plastic ones are the answer lol

10:38 am

when I was still working, I got a manicure every week and it kept me from biting my nails, but here, at $50 a manicure, forget it!

10:39 am

ours are about the same price over here, it's cheaper to get false nails

10:39 am

in Miami, it was about $10, manageable, plus a pedicure once a month

10:40 am

I am still friends (after 11 years here) with my Cuban manicurist from Miami

10:40 am

I decided to become high maintenance again 'cause if Ii get my nails done every 3 weeks I will look after waxing etc at the same time

10:41 am

katie: that sounds like a good program!

10:41 am

lord save me from high maintenance;)

10:41 am

the place I went in Miami was "full service" also -- even haircuts!

10:41 am

yes, crossy, but she doesn't make your martinis!

10:41 am

hair cut and coloured every 6 weeks, hubby obviously has never worked out how much this all costs lol

10:42 am

im adding it up now...

10:42 am

I never colored my hair -- funny to thin about it now. I'm probably the only woman in France with some gray hair!

10:42 am

think*

10:42 am

i'm sure you think my hair is cheaper than it is crossy my colleague used to work it out in pints of beer

10:43 am

that sounds like good math!

10:43 am

im guessing hubby will have to budget 200 a month lol

10:43 am

just for the salon!

10:43 am

you see 90-yr old swomen, walking with sticks, with red hair!

10:43 am

or purple

10:44 am

lol ruby,my m-i-l is 80 and has this head of blonde hair i can see with my eyes closed!

10:44 am

lol Ruby. I am very grey and still relatively young (41) so dye it my natural colour. Crossy it's only $105 for the hair

10:45 am

too funny, katie.

10:45 am

too funny, katie.

10:45 am

I didn't even start to get gray until I was past 50 but it's still only half and half and I'm a lot past 50!

10:45 am

lmao at Crossy's m-i-l

10:46 am

I had a friend in NY who started dying her hair reddish in her 20's and didn't have any idea what her natural color was!

10:46 am

once she messed up the job and it was green for a while lol

10:46 am

I hope it was in March

10:47 am

Mari has had her nails done as well. I told hubby Mari was getting them done so I needed mine doing and Mari used the same tactic on Dad

10:47 am

not sure,but she is they type to get a box of colour in a wal-mart discount bin for 6 bux,and go nuts with it at 3 am after a few sherries

10:48 am

now that sounds like fun!!!

10:48 am

Crumble is cuddled on my lap, they get affectionate as soon as they see the suitcases lol

10:48 am

my sil dies her hear different colors all the time but says she is not sure what color it is

10:48 am

the last thing I feel like doing now is serving dinner!!!! Would somebody please write me an excuse note

10:49 am

11:02 am

hi and bye nancy, from another [secret] nancy

11:02 am

hi and bye, secret nancy ;)

11:03 am

11:05 am

thank you Ruby!

11:05 am

hi rhondabe

11:06 am

isn't niad something electrical?

11:06 am

wow, looks like my icon of me as a kid has scared everyone away!

11:07 am

i think it is cute but didn't see until i click on it

11:07 am

How pretty you were, even with that prepubescent scowl :)

11:07 am

you do look surly though

11:07 am

one of my favorite photos of my son is with him looking all pissed off

11:08 am

Ditto of one of my daughter -- something about the blazing eyes and scowly look ;)

11:08 am

LOL, thanks Ch1 ;) I think the scowl is a lot to do with the bowl cut.

11:08 am

How could that be, NB...you were a cute kid!

11:09 am

my son had his arms all crossed! lol

11:09 am

hi i-mac

11:09 am

oh, evening you! how embarrassing to be caught lamenting the hairstyle once again...I do think about other things

11:09 am

Hi jmcnrick

11:10 am

Sure you do...sure.

11:10 am

he does too -- he laments lots of things

11:10 am

so I have noticed!

11:11 am

;-D

11:11 am

Oi! :) And there I always thought of myself as an optimist!

11:11 am

Just signed on and you aren't there?

11:11 am

you are NB or else it you wouldn't be going forward!

11:12 am

strange...I don't see you on either. Let me sign out and in again - fixes most things

11:13 am

I went visible...wasn't to start.

11:14 am

It's difficult not to be an optimist when you have my flatmate, Jmc - it's so easy to make Leo happy. Right now he's in paroxysms of delight over our new vacuum cleaner.

11:14 am

Simple things...as they say?

11:14 am

quite! there you are

11:15 am

clue for ha 4/11

11:15 am

Here I is.

11:15 am

I know all about simple things...I live with one ;)

11:16 am

I...can't say the same!

11:16 am

In some ways, perhaps!

11:16 am

I only say it because the simple thing is standing behind me tutting. But no, nothing simple about yours!

11:17 am

the ha4/11... like the pilgrimage to mecca

11:17 am

11:17 am

this grid is so tedious today

11:29 am

I'm finding that

hi, everyone

11:33 am

afternoon babblers

hi good enough

11:35 am

enjoying your saturday?

i'm having a great day - it's my birthday!

11:36 am

oh Happy

11:36 am

Birthday :)

11:37 am

I love when we throw babble parties!

ty. i can't spare much time for babble today as i'm having a party tomorrow and must do some cooking. how#s your day?

11:37 am

good day, baseball cancelled so the whole day is open

11:37 am

of course the cook and the maid didn't show up again so there is that...

that's a nice feeling - just see what evolves.

servants are such a problem, aren't they?

11:38 am

don't work too hard for the party - DELEGATE

11:38 am

mine ae very unreliable, haven't seen them in weeks!

mostly done already, and a friend comes over tomorrow to help

11:39 am

excellent

have you got nice weather at present? it's great here, and all my neighbours are in their gardens lighting barbecues

11:41 am

bit rainy (thus the cancelled baseball) but warmish

no volcanic dust then?

11:42 am

it's been so unseasonable warm here that everything is in bloom. we have lilac celebrations in May and the lilacs are already out. they will be past before the fest

11:42 am

Greetings all. HAd been a warm almost summers day here today,can't believe it but temps and still unstable for this time of year.

lilac celebrations sound lovely. we've had a very late spring and now everythings come out at once. hi FM

11:43 am

Hi gg, just wish it wold rain.

11:43 am

*would even

11:43 am

11:44 am

Hey NB, glorious isn't it!

hiii Crossy! how're you?

11:51 am

I have an in4 in the center ... I think.

11:51 am

not bad for a old fella..you know its all over when the hot 30 year old ladies come up and ask YOU if you need help carrying that package lol

11:51 am

have that one, and the babblet from the bottom I

11:51 am

can someone help me with hu7 please?

11:52 am

Then you need the in8 ... think of not being able to conceive

11:53 am

i don't think there is an hu7, rhonda

11:54 am

I think you mean the hu4/7 ... it starts and ends with the same letter :)

11:54 am

sorry, i mean hu4...7

11:54 am

LOL Crossy! Regardless of age, I could use the help dragging groceries home - I need to go back to the gym!

11:55 am

hu4, I din't think that was a real word

11:55 am

Apologies, got called away by work. NB this is jsut the start of our summer for heavens sake!!!!!!

11:56 am

I know, but I'm so suspicious of good weather in England! Remember a couple of years ago when it rained ALL through August?

11:56 am

lol dear it usually does :)

11:57 am

Hey crossy((()))

11:57 am

Hello All - NB is that you as a boy?

11:57 am

I am brain dead today ... my last one is ji5 - clue please??

11:57 am

nm -- got it. done

11:58 am

11:58 am

Mom MB is still just a youngster :)

11:59 am

yes I know but almost out of the teens

11:59 am

sheesh typing is up to my usual low standard.

11:59 am

any clues needed before I go back to the rummage sale across the street? (Earlier I got an entire BAG full of books for $1 !)

11:59 am

almost! yep, that's me around five...I think, somewhere back home. Don't I look sulky!

11:59 am

fe6 please

11:59 am

Oh go get more bargains ch12!

12:00 pm

OH NB - such pinchable cheeks

12:00 pm

fe 6 means fertile

12:00 pm

i'm back, hi mom

12:00 pm

hi good enough

12:01 pm

isn't it nice to get pictures of our adoptive son (NB)

12:01 pm

yes it is - now we just need the baby photo

12:02 pm

or, fe + first 3 letters of horrible slang word for woman's genitals + cons. (That clue crassly refers to the definition)

12:02 pm

I'm not releasing any baby photos! I was a terribly fat baby.

12:02 pm

Are you still around, I-mac?

12:02 pm

all the better NB

12:03 pm

I am, NB...struggling to finish.

12:03 pm

Not the easiest puzzle!

12:03 pm

thank you thank you ch12

12:04 pm

Must be off,see you anon.

12:04 pm

Me too, FM and all - adios!

12:04 pm

see you later ladies - be good ;) x

12:05 pm

bye FM and ch

12:05 pm

oh NB - you are leaving us - you be good yourself

12:06 pm

oh no, I'm going nowhere...at least not until I have to go to work. I have the big fat saturday shift this evening - I'm frantically drinking red bull as we speak!

12:07 pm

Best night for tips though, NB?

12:07 pm

back

12:07 pm

hi jmc

12:07 pm

Better be, Ian - service with a smile and all that...

12:08 pm

I'm sure...paint that smile on!

12:08 pm

meeting over or taking a break?

So is your hand better, NB?

12:08 pm

Hello Pinny

Hi iMac

12:10 pm

skipping the meeting on when counselors should call lawyers

12:11 pm

at a seminar jmc?

12:12 pm

at a conference of GI Rights counselors

12:12 pm

It's getting there, Pinny - stitches out soon, which I'm dreading (ugh!). It's a good talking point though - I've drawn two eyes above the cut so it looks like a face

You are a brave soldier!

12:13 pm

Stiches being taken out don't hurt, NB.

No permanent damage, I hope?

12:13 pm

Or stitches...when I can type.

12:13 pm

I'm a weeping wreck of a solider, Pinny ;)

12:14 pm

Aw...poor little lad!

12:14 pm

hello everybody

12:14 pm

It's not the pain so much, Ian, just the thought! Plus, I quite like them. They look very manly.

12:14 pm

dinner is over , TG, and I have 111/2 hour or so to gry to get a few more words

NB and iMac - are you friends in real life?

12:14 pm

that was 1/2* lol

12:15 pm

someone needs to bring out kids home - what happened to those promises - my niece and nephew are being deployed soon (again)

12:15 pm

getting stitches out usually scratches the itches

12:15 pm

that is horrible, mom!

12:15 pm

hi pinny

Hi Ruby

12:16 pm

have them call the GI Rights Hotline at 877-447-4487

12:16 pm

hi ruby and pinny

12:16 pm

eating desert

12:16 pm

that is what i do mom

Hi Mom!

12:16 pm

oh mom, how are you feeling today? going any better?

12:16 pm

shallow rubyfoo!

12:17 pm

but i will now change the subject so as not to look like i am making a political statement -- isnt there a u6?

12:17 pm

Hi MNH

12:17 pm

much better day today than yesterday. real bad night last night - I think I have peaked in the miserable department and now moving on

12:17 pm

hey boo

12:17 pm

hi all!

12:18 pm

hi boo and good

12:18 pm

hi pav

12:18 pm

hi Pav

12:18 pm

hi boo and pav

12:18 pm

33 to go

12:18 pm

Hi jmc

12:18 pm

I missed that, mom, I didn't know you weren't ok!

12:18 pm

How nice all the babble family is here?

12:18 pm

quit smoking on thursday ruby

12:18 pm

hi pav

12:19 pm

good for you mom!

12:19 pm

i'm glad today is better. someday you will feel great!!

12:19 pm

oh, I knew about that! I thought you fell or something.....

12:19 pm

75 left but in and out with meetings

12:19 pm

wtg mom! whooo hoooo!

I quit in October after 15 years, Mom - am channeling you good thoughts!

12:20 pm

yay for mom!!!!!

12:20 pm

*-8-**-8-**-8-**-8-*

12:20 pm

Yay Mom!...yes, I know it can be difficult at times to overcome anything you've been doing/practicing/leading etc. for some time,...as they say old habits, and Hobbits!, die hard...

12:20 pm

I have never smoked.

12:20 pm

you too pinny! whoo hooo *-8-**-8-**-8-**-8-**-8-*

12:20 pm

even with the meds - yesterday was tough - I guess day 2 is no matter what - today much better - and my family just didnt get it - I was ready to kill them all last night

12:20 pm

good for you boo - it is a bad habit and so hard to stop

12:20 pm

good for you boo!

My best tip is time-consuming fruit! I started eating things that took me ages to prepare, which kept my hands busy after a meal. First I went through a pomegranate stage, then lychees and now I'm onto pomelos

12:21 pm

I never smoked, but my husband did, before I knew him and he said he craved cigs for 2 yrs. But he's 84 and relatively healthy....

12:21 pm

I am glad for you mom.

12:21 pm

pinny that is great advice

12:21 pm

Good for you, Pinny...wish I could get my s/o to quit, it isn't easy. That's a real accomplishment,, be proud!

12:21 pm

pinny, that's a great idea!

12:22 pm

Fruit is so good for you too...good idea!

12:22 pm

good advice is right - thanks - I need all the help I can get - but I am doing it after 38 years of smoking

Thanks! Wasn't sure if it sounded dumb or not, but was a way of breaking an old pattern of behaviour and replacing it with something healthy (stopped me reaching for chocolate as well)

12:22 pm

and eat the pomegranate, one seed at a time

I did, Ruby!

12:22 pm

my mom quit after 40, mom - it's possible!

12:22 pm

Smart idea, Pinny

12:23 pm

full-time occupation

12:23 pm

as I told my husband, I am taking control of my life again -- we will see where that leads after this

12:23 pm

Ian's right, Pinny - I tried quitting a while ago, but couldn't. I should have stopped when I was 17 and they changed the legal age to 18, but I had my fake ID at the ready..

12:23 pm

My dad quit after 60+ years of smoking ... just take it one day at a time mom and remember how much better you will feel once it's all gone

12:23 pm

hi wildcat! nice to see you.

12:24 pm

hi ruby :)

12:24 pm

I have never had a pomegranate - will try

12:24 pm

...and set aside any funds you would have spent on a goal to purchase/travel etc. to reward your self-improvement...

Any fiddly fruit will do :D

12:24 pm

it's a pain in the neck to eat, but very tasty, requiring much patience

12:24 pm

what a great decision mom.

12:24 pm

I quit when pregnant for both my kids but started up again - stupid - didnt have an issue quitting then - alot of it is mind control

12:25 pm

we all have our addictions, babble anyone?

12:25 pm

I was planning on that pav - so everytime I go grocery shopping and would normally buy a carton, i will put that money aside.

12:26 pm

that's a great way to reward yourself

12:26 pm

Is that what we're here for?...hmmm, on to my missing 33

12:26 pm

I have an addictive personality so have so many - dont know where to start

12:26 pm

yay MOM...that always needs repeating...

12:26 pm

moi? hahahah

12:26 pm

well you have started so more power to you

12:27 pm

we will root for you every day, mom!

12:27 pm

*smacks cigarettes out of NB hand*

12:27 pm

my husband died at 40 because he smoked NB

12:28 pm

Hi everybody :) Good to see you Trif!

6:36 pm

the guy selling it was wicked nice. Gave me $100 off the asking price because tertiare was cute, and he liked my guinness tee shirt.

6:36 pm

hi soodle

6:36 pm

3 of the he's are medical terms--found those

6:36 pm

hey there soodle! Have been wondering about you --- any progress on your conundrum?

6:36 pm

Hi Soodle

6:36 pm

hmmm sounds like a sales man

6:36 pm

Lucky you, Trif

6:36 pm

ha4 = sounds like "house"

6:37 pm

Not really Trif. Still only in cyber-land!

6:37 pm

mmm. keep me posted, dear one!

6:37 pm

Will do!

6:38 pm

WA - Think of what a dog does if it is sad, and insert an A between the first two letters.

6:38 pm

I have to admit, soodle, I did half amuse myself the other day hatching this plan whereby you stalk mr hate when he is in your neighborhood, and then totally snipe him in a store or something. I pictured a brilliant scene where you come upon him, all unknown, and denounce him as a scoundrel in a hugely public manner. oh, I was tickled!

6:38 pm

thx soodle ;)

6:39 pm

stick his tail between his leags?

6:39 pm

ji5?

6:39 pm

<===cat person

6:39 pm

little terror plan, pini

6:39 pm

Try the dog being sad verbally!

6:39 pm

I still have fantasies of embarrassing my former boss, Dr Richard Head, Trif.

6:40 pm

thx, trif

6:40 pm

ah the Hawaiian woman

6:40 pm

I send myself to sleep thinking up the most fiendishly, dastardly plans. Then I go off to some very sweet dreams!

6:40 pm

See, this is where we babblers come in, scrab. think how delicious it would be if a bunch of us trailed him somewhere, and disparaged him and he would have NO idea who we were, or why we were doing so.

6:41 pm

Is he back in Cavan?

6:42 pm

And since he has narcissistic personality disorder he actually is quite insecure and paranoid, fearing that he will be "found out" for being notwho he believes he is

6:42 pm

last he5?

6:42 pm

oh, gads...he's a target waiting to happen!

6:42 pm

pl he4 before it

6:43 pm

Long legged wading birds without the O

6:43 pm

But he commits self-sabotage on a daily basis

6:43 pm

he arrives may 1st, soodle

6:43 pm

May I please have a clue for ha4-11? Thanks

6:43 pm

Trif - I will happily stalk and torment the louser!

6:43 pm

Well, wasn't that simple, Pini. TY

6:44 pm

6:44 pm

gapeach, did you watch johnny quest when you were a kid? it's his best friends name

Use high point tile!

6:44 pm

ha + readio announcer

6:44 pm

er - radio

6:44 pm

oooo i loved johnny quest (alas it was so racist)

6:45 pm

just walk up to him at random and tell him in your fiercest tone that he should be ashamed of himself for treating his wife and kids the way he has. that oughta give him a sleepless night or two, wondering who on earth you are, and how could you know that? tee hee!

6:45 pm

I watched Johnny Quest too!

6:45 pm

me, too

6:45 pm

nice

6:45 pm

And believe me, Trif, I would take pleasure in doing it!

6:45 pm

please, jmc, I dread to tell you my favorite bedtime story! my mom read it incredibly well, and I LOVED hearing it over and over. hi4: the tigers turned to butter in the end, which is the part I liked best

6:45 pm

But when his "fortress" of defense mechanisms is challenged he goes into a rage!

6:45 pm

Thanks y'all.

6:46 pm

Now - does anybody know any Babblers going to Bangkok, who would do it to my Mr Nasty?

6:46 pm

ooooh I liked that one too!

6:46 pm

I know a guy....

6:46 pm

pay for the trip, and I'll go and do it!

6:47 pm

i will go with pini!

6:47 pm

I actually do know someone near there, but he runs a peace refuge and yoga/music center, so, clearly, not the type we need at all. would only walk up to mr nasty and "namaste" all over him. pah.

6:47 pm

Pini, if I could pay for the trip, I would go myself. I have one or two things to say to him....

6:47 pm

* snicker *

6:48 pm

We could just let the idiots self-destruct.

6:48 pm

And (look away jmc), there would be baseball bats involved as well. LOL

6:48 pm

Well, fireworks, finally. Thanks to all of my helpers. See y'all at the flip.

6:48 pm

ACK! *hides her eyes*

6:48 pm

LOL soodle! jmc is a baseball fan, no worries! (okay, maybe not in this context....)

A bunch of people walked down main street with dogs

7:47 pm

7:47 pm

HI BR

Mom needs, the size was perfect for me, as I worked 12 hours. Some days though I wish I could fast forward on short days!

Hi BR.

7:47 pm

I have a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel. I have pics in my profile of my dog at the dog park Momneedshelp.

7:47 pm

how was it determined who walked, and who stood by on the sides? was it a dog club or something, or was everyone with a dog welcome to walk?

7:48 pm

Hello BabbleRabble! How are you?Welcome to the grid

7:48 pm

whoops - one left!!!

7:49 pm

Oh such friendly dogs. Good for you. Always wanted to do something like that with my labs but living where I do there isnt much if anything

7:49 pm

why is one a whoops trif?

7:49 pm

Anybody with a dog could either be in this parade or stand on the sides and watch.We stood on sides and watched. I also had my sister's mini doxie w/me too.

7:49 pm

I wasn't paying attention, and suddenly, one left!

7:49 pm

Go Trifioso go!

7:49 pm

7:49 pm

R's Removed! 8 left

I find I really like doxies, even though I have a much bigger boy...

7:50 pm

Sister's dog barks too much & then get my dog going!

7:51 pm

girl has arrived! watch primo

7:51 pm

Dog pictures are not there anymore! What happened

7:51 pm

go!

7:51 pm

my young lab is such an awesome dog, I have though about making her a therapy dog - but the requirements and training is incredible. I thought I could just bring her into a nursing home or other kind of home as she loves people so much - but NO - cnat do that. I understand they need to make sure the dog is not dangerous but .....

7:52 pm

Was surprised that there weren't a lot of labs at the parade.I also did not see too many Golden Retrievers

There is a lot of liability involved with the fragile skin and bones....

7:53 pm

U's Uplifted! 6 left

7:53 pm

FIREWORKS!!! woot woot! just in time too! have to start supervising the lusty teens!

If I could get Teulu to calm down a bit more with people he might make it, but....he does get so wound....

I do know that red. I also know how gentle my dog is yet I am sure other people feel the same and their dogs are not. My dogs go everyone with us and make many people happy. Unfortunately I do not have the time with full time work to put them through the training program.

7:56 pm

how fast would he be if he were she?

7:56 pm

He just towers over all the other runners!

Well, He/she might if she broke world records bam bam bam like Bolt does.

8:01 pm

sorry I started this - changing subject - beautiful sunny day today - got sunburn on my nose

8:05 pm

flowers are popping = nose is dripping

well, there is some good running going on in Philly this weekend.

8:07 pm

the newist (not really a word) wine I made is quite good - more potent than I expected - you all must visit vintners wines to make some too

ruru is a wine expert. I am a tee-totaler.

8:08 pm

i just finished a glass of port

Lawyer! I did kindergarten in the 70's!

8:08 pm

8:09 pm

No wine tonight, ruru.

8:09 pm

Rogue Mocha Porter.

8:09 pm

I am here mom..

8:09 pm

I did read the Chablis piece in the NYT, though, and it got me thinking, LOL

8:09 pm

Hi Pam

8:10 pm

about? fish and chablis?

I think it was more exciting that Bolts record breaker.

8:10 pm

I love Chablis.

8:10 pm

what did you want to know mom?

8:11 pm

chablis? ugh too sweet - give me a good dry chardonnay

8:11 pm

real chablis (from France) mom..is bone-dry

8:11 pm

(and it is chardonnay)

8:11 pm

thought we could do some wine testing - will have to find wines we can test from coast to coast

8:12 pm

testing or tasting?

8:13 pm

sometimes it seems like it is testing BUT of course we will be tasting

8:13 pm

Pam has a grenache that has taken a quiz.. but...

8:13 pm

Has anyone heard of the traveling vineyard?

lol

8:14 pm

lol?

8:15 pm

firewords!

I was chuckling to find out that Pam's grenache had taken a quiz, it was amusing to me.

8:15 pm

The NYT piece talked about Chablis and sancerre, I think. Actually, it might have been Jay McInerney in the WSJ.

8:15 pm

ruru do you work in a vineyard

8:15 pm

The grenache took a quiz?

8:16 pm

I am so loving the Spanish wines.

8:16 pm

8:17 pm

in8 unable to conceive

8:17 pm

And, mom, he is able to, sight unseen, ask the right questions to help a person find some great wines to choose from!

8:17 pm

hey, ru, can u ship me some wine in Maryland?

8:17 pm

8:18 pm

8:19 pm

8:19 pm

8:20 pm
