Navy is a place near me. Navy Elementary School is the school that has had the same name for the longest in our county. It's had that name since it first opened in 1876, the year our schools were established.

12:27 am

oh une are you here?

12:27 am

I was surprised that there's more than one Gratiot. My dad's from the one in Ohio, and there's one in Michigan, though they're pronounced differently.

12:31 am

one in OH is pronounced GRAY-shot. one in MI is GRAY-tee-oat

1:24 am

ah because i listed it lol nvm

1:24 am

the other ci 4 goes with the 5

1:24 am

yeah duh me

lol cuz that was the one I missed at first :)

house was built in 2004, but looks like a show house that has never been lived in...

1:25 am

my last 2 words were that one and the first da 4

my last word was ai 5/14 can't believe I missed that one

1:26 am

something in common with this one...built in 2004...don't know if i can say the same about the other two things

I have never seen a house so well maintained - including ours, and I thought I had OCD

1:27 am

lol

it is literally move-in ready... I keep asking hubby why we have to have a budget LOL LOL

anyway, it was fun to see

1:28 am

way over your budget...or just a little over?

significantly higher

1:29 am

but worth every penny, i'm sure :)

realtor suggested a start # for bidding... if they would accept that, we would be fine, but hubby's ouch is only 10 or 20k higher than that

1:30 am

doing a loan?

kinda, dc.... our market sucks here, and we don't have a lot of folks looking in that range, so worth every penny in a good market...

yep

which is why he is ouchy ...

1:31 am

may you live there long enough to make it up :)

1:31 am

low rates....you should have a budget....but figure out how much more a month 10000 would cost

ty dc... here's hoping for that

1:32 am

when i bought my first house...was at 30 yrs and 8.75 %

I will be doing that dart LOL

ours was 20 at 8.75

1:33 am

had other bidders and the agent said...would you be mad if you didn't get this house...it's only XXX more a month to bid this and probably get it for sure...wasn't very much then

1:34 am

my parents assumed an 8.75% loan for 20 as loans were approaching 18% on the market in 1979. mom refinanced much, much lower than that few years ago to do a bunch of needed repairs and replacements.

1:34 am

after i had looked at like a 100 houses lol

smart move, dc... we were soooo fortunate not to have to do anything when it was that high... I remember friends doing variables then... hard to believe interest rates were ever that high

1:35 am

we have very, very low inventory here. Makes showing such fun. I've had a few i've had to tell there's nothing else to see for 4 counties around

1:36 am

first car was 17.33 %...glad rates aren't there now

odd thing here - houses on the market are pretty low compared to 3 years ago, but the new houses being built are still being sold at premium prices... not sure how our builders are getting away with that

wow dc... I can see that starting here... will be interesting to see what spring brings... there are only 4 houses on the market that we would even consider right now

1:37 am

here, new construction is selling for 20-40% less than 3 years ago, if still 10-15% more than most existing stock.

not here... minimum of $185 per sq foot still

1:37 am

ouch, dart. I financed one car at 2.75 back in '04.

1:38 am

they wanted me to take a 5 yr loan...told them i didn't want to pay for the car twice over

bet those payments were huge

1:39 am

sister's M-i-l just got a new 3k sq ft townhome for 320k, which is a great price for the location.

1:39 am

took a 3 yr loan...paid it off at the end of 1

1:40 am

and in VA, basements are not taxable, so depending on how the house is built, you only pay tax on half or a third of the building.

1:40 am

nice, dart, well done.

that's still pretty high per sq ft how old?

wtg dart

1:40 am

built to spec, occupancy this past October. cost of living here is high.

1:41 am

she had extra electric outlets, top-end finishes and appliances, and still had hundreds of thousands left from sale of her old home.

sure wish that were same here, dc... for some reason we are currently looking at basements as equal to rest of house; in some cases they are considered more "valuable" than a 2nd story... really odd

true that

1:42 am

wish MN and KS would consider basement levels that way

1:42 am

state law says basements are not taxable, even in a case like my mom's house, where the kitchen, DR, and family room are in walk-out with large windows on 2 of the 4 walls.

really wish IN were like that

1:43 am

they tax on the value of the home...and that goes up if the lower level is finished

1:43 am

friends have a split-foyer with 2 br, full bath, FR, laundry and storage down, and 3 br, 2FB ktich, dining, LR up, and lower level not taxable.

that would truly help with prop taxes

well, time to check emails and bid you all adieu

1:49 am

nite volley

8:34 am

Alt 3 does not work on my computer :(

8:34 am

Not sure if you can do it on a Mac or not, but you can also select "insert" from the Word menu, select symbol and choose from lots of symbols.

8:35 am

ty for that, Judi

8:43 am

Down to 38. I don't like this grid.

10:09 am

morning, Flo! lol, i bet minnie typed it in there, swmbo! lol

10:10 am

Hate it when I do that. One of the reasons I seldom chat, can't keep my boxes separate

10:10 am

Minnie can't Babble. She spends most of her time trying to menace Maude!

10:11 am

then it was probably Maude, trying to distract Minnie! lol

10:11 am

That could be so...

10:16 am

jafro - a babblet is a word, usually odd, that shows up often,

10:18 am

off to get some other things done. hagd everyone

10:18 am

and that is generally never seen in real books or conversations

10:18 am

yup!

10:19 am

And tx for the um!

10:19 am

Morning all

10:21 am

Fine & dandy crossy. How about you? All readt to please elegant today?

10:22 am

10:23 am

as best i can,she is already giving me the hairy eyeball because she got nothing right off the bat:)

10:24 am

Hah! See what happens when you spoil her? She has claimed it as her right!!

10:24 am

i plan on making her sweat till 9 pm tonight:)

10:25 am

10:27 am

And loving every min of it!

10:28 am

airtem

10:28 am

I should never talk while hunting!

10:30 am

even worse,on the way to a fine dining establishment,i plan on going through the McDonalds drive through and ordering a super size fries and giving her a sad wilted rose that i got for free at the flower shop that they were going to toss out yesterday,turn to her with the fries and the rose and say"happy valentines baby!"

10:31 am

crossy, you are a tease

10:31 am

OOOOH - she will beat you with it!

10:31 am

Remember the thorns

10:32 am

don't they remove them by you?

10:33 am

yes, now that you mention it, they do.

10:36 am

sorry - distracted by a bug!

10:37 am

lol,i will evade the thorns till we get to her favorite seafood place;)

10:39 am

Seafood yes. And yours would be nice and fresh instead of frozen.

10:42 am

I haven't made up my mind what to ccok yet. Restaurants are forgetaboutits!

10:43 am

Have to see what may be buried in the freezer.

10:43 am

well,remember hoots all our lakes are freshwater in these parts,but we have excellent game fish that are a delight to eat out

10:45 am

I don't. Now if I were in NY.....the sky would be the limit!

10:48 am

i am thinking,shrimp cocktail..then some fresh bruchetta.then for the main lightly battered pickerel and winter vegetables in chicken broth and whipped cheddar potatos than are put back in the crispy potato jackets with fresh sour cream on top and for desert triple chocolate cheese cake and paired with a fine but unpretentious white whine

10:49 am

sounds wonderful crossy

10:49 am

wine

10:50 am

thank you - I am now hungry!

10:50 am

Bf has just been volunteered to make pancakes!

10:50 am

brb

10:51 am

the pickerel is light as air and flaky,with just a dash of lemon and it falls apart with just a touch of the fork

10:51 am

ah, thanks for the idea, will make waffles this morning

10:52 am

better get blueberries out of freezer, to top them with

10:52 am

mmm..bloobies....

11:13 am

11:14 am

oh sorry flossy! will he hang around or leave right away?

11:52 am

Ok - need ac6 and la8 to finish and enjoy my brunch! Help please?

11:52 am

highest card in poker + shortened word for stomach

11:53 am

11:53 am

OMG - talk about blind! Thank you!

11:54 am

you are welcome! I had to monkey that one myself

11:54 am

I went all around it!

11:57 am

Ok got the la from morewords and am goig to eat my brunch! BBL!

12:14 pm

horrya! crossy also found the la8 by using morewords;)

12:15 pm

la8 sounds like the resistance measure of energy passing through cable or varying thickness

12:16 pm

hi again all!

12:16 pm

hi crossy!

12:16 pm

howdy suze!

12:16 pm

howdy jen:)

12:16 pm

so that sounds like something I should know, crossy...*looks in grid*

12:16 pm

hi sue!

12:17 pm

hi, jen!

12:17 pm

more like resistors in a circuit board

12:18 pm

they are banded with different colour bands because each has a different la8

12:18 pm

la 8 - la + vowel + sounds like what the Tango is a type of

12:18 pm

"slaps crossy across the knees" where is my hi?

12:18 pm

i said howdy jen at 12:16

12:18 pm

oh there it is' sorry!

12:18 pm

:))

12:18 pm

i'll be quiet

12:19 pm

precision? tolerance?

12:20 pm

it is ok,here have a yellow friendship rose for valentines day:) it is the yellow of a spring sunrise,and soft as velvet and if you place your noce over it and inhale,you can smell spring time and the green of natures rebirth;)

12:20 pm

you are in the ballpark,more of a slowness of a charge to travel over a curcit

12:21 pm

well, I got it, but it doesn't ring those bells for me (resistance, resistivity, inductance...)

12:22 pm

latency,but spelled differently

12:22 pm

(turns out it is scuzz on concrete, anyway)

12:22 pm

that is what i was aiming for

12:22 pm

lol@ scuzz on concrete

12:23 pm

a milky deposit on the surface of new cement or concrete, usually caused by too much water.

12:23 pm

so saith the dictionary.

12:23 pm

So now I know exactly how to complain when my new concrete isn't quite right :-)

12:23 pm

well,was hoping my clue would get you in the general vicinity,but i suppose not:(

12:24 pm

have a yellow rose then for valentines suze:)

12:24 pm

thx, crossy!!

12:25 pm

It did get me sort of in the vicinity although I know too much about resistors, I think (will be covering them in class soon)

12:26 pm

i did many courses in the past,but it soon became clear that i was colour blind int the varying shades of purle that many resistors and capacitors are banded with for identification

12:26 pm

purple

12:27 pm

ah, my son has trouble distinguishing different shades of purple as well (and my dad is colorblind so that's where he gets it)

12:28 pm

my father-in-law told us he was color blind as he was going through a red light

12:29 pm

well,even colourblind he can tell the colour of the light by its placement ..good excuse indeed!

12:30 pm

top is alway red,middle always yellw and the bottom is green..easy eah? lol

12:30 pm

well,except in cities where they get cute and mount the thing sideways

12:31 pm

that's what my dad always said - he can't see green (it looks grey or brown to him) although he can see red

12:31 pm

yup,just rely on placement

12:32 pm

that is sad..all the trees and grass grey and brown:(((

12:33 pm

on the other hand he can't tell if the lawn is dead :-)

12:33 pm

lo 6? plz

12:34 pm

what are the stats, bichon?

12:34 pm

and hi :-)

12:34 pm

12:38 pm

12:48 pm

1:00 pm

((ruby))

1:01 pm

wish i coulkd walk for a hobby or fitness,crossy walks miles and mile every day as part of the job.when i am not working,i walk as little as possible;)

1:01 pm

though there must be something to it with a colesterol level of 96 and the way i eat bacon and eggs;)))

1:03 pm

well i must be off to work,so i shall leave you with crossy,s tidbit of the day:)

1:03 pm

Ezra Pound was brutal when editing his good friend T. S. Eliot’s poem The Wasteland– in Pound’s first encounter with the masterpiece he chopped off the first 54 lines.

1:03 pm

tc all and happy babbling!..poink!

1:13 pm

Good Day, Everybody. I'm having so much trouble getting IN to Babble that I just want to spit! Either the browser times out, or the letter squares in the grid won't show up; or my words won't enter, or chat won't load; etc. Is anyone else having trouble with this? (And I have shut down and rebooted; I've tried another browser, etc.; so I've tried what I could do to fix my problems and it hasn't helped

1:14 pm

hi nef, it's been ok for me today although apparently some people were having trouble in the wee hours (crossing fingers...)

1:20 pm

Okay, then I guess I'll call the internet company if more people agree that it's just me. Most other sites are working okay (but not great); Babble is the only place I'm really having severe problems with

1:21 pm

I've been having occasional glitches all day, and not just with Babble (had a really bad glitch yesterday that deleted my entire profile!!!)

1:51 pm

Spanish champagne is cava, I have done extensive research into drinking it while on holiday in Spain!!

2:09 pm

6:28 pm

Top...

6:31 pm

Dear goodness...did I kill you too??????????

6:31 pm

Nobody chatting on Valentine's Day? Just starting. Busy day. Shopping in the morning. Finishing loads of wash for the week. Making panne cotta for dessert tonight. Pizza also. Meanwhile, lovely spring day in our neighborhood.

6:33 pm

They've probably all finished and gone on their merry way!

6:33 pm

Yes. lots of folks are probably remembering about now they need a Valentine card and a box of chocolates.

6:34 pm

Did you see the cute video on google?

6:34 pm

No. What cute video?

6:35 pm

go to google and click on the characters above the search bar. cute!

6:35 pm

Oh, sorry champ...what you do when you start a riot and the past tense of that.

6:35 pm

Fish me Molly! thanks!

6:35 pm

♥ Happy Valentine's Day Gran Mere ♥

6:36 pm

Happy Valentine's Day to you too Molly. I'm wearing a red blouse and heart-shaped earrings.

6:36 pm

got 'em!

6:36 pm

Very festive Gran Mere : )

6:37 pm

Well, this was the best day of the year for first graders. By this time they can read their Valentine's cards to themselves for the first time in their lives.

6:41 pm

I have been looking for LO 8/45 until I think my eyes are crossing

6:42 pm

8 letter words are tough.

6:43 pm

Don't have it!

6:43 pm

6:43 pm

lo8/45...nickname for Laura + lubri**** your engine with motor oil

6:43 pm

6:44 pm

It's twisty and wicked.

6:44 pm

And something I haven't heard of before....

6:44 pm

ty molly. cated

6:44 pm

thank you Molly

6:44 pm

woops. too many parts.

6:45 pm

almost PB. I shall have to be more alert.

6:46 pm

yes...that was a close call!

6:48 pm

how about in 6 and 7

6:49 pm

6:49 pm

Molly clued them at 6:35 bekki...

6:50 pm

ty molly. Of course, that is how riots start.

7:57 pm

glad she said engine...lol

8:01 pm

Yay! Bawdy Valentine's humor. I hope it was ok-y that I said engine.

8:01 pm

Well, this IS supposed to be a family site, ruru.

8:01 pm

well especially today of all days..lol

8:02 pm

maybe I'll try to be the motor oil today..;)

8:02 pm

LOL

8:03 pm

Hi Jac. I think this site would fail to acquire a PG rating.

8:04 pm

what ? we're just talking auto parts here

8:04 pm

Molly, hi! Yes. Though it does get a little steamy at ti4's.

8:04 pm

And, no, the ti4 has nothing to do with 'hooters'.

8:05 pm

crossie was talking this morning about waffles and bloobies. I had to take a double take at that one

8:07 pm

ruru - he's just a food freak. LOL

8:08 pm

Me, I prefer blueberries and boobs, if you are going to talk of them. Adding "ies" to things just sounds so babyish.

8:08 pm

Molly - true.

8:10 pm

It reminds me of the phase half the girls I went to high school with went through, changing their "y" ending name to an "i" ending and dotting the "i" with a heart. Ewwwwww.

8:10 pm

I was watching a US series called 'The New Girl' last week, recommended to me by my son as being 'a bit like "Friends"). It wasn't as good as "Friends" but is WAS funny watching the girl (main character) struggling to say the word 'penis'.

8:11 pm

I am amazed that "New Girl" caught on. It seems so vacant to me, but then, so did "Friends".

8:12 pm

Molly - My full Christian name, when shortened, was ended with a 'y' by my Dad. However, when I had a best friend with the same name and she wanted to keep her 'y', I opted for an 'ie' ending - which was more hip at the time anyway, since it was a top teen magazine.

8:12 pm

tell me about it Molly.. many people name men's genitalia after a Bandaid company

8:13 pm

hey all

8:13 pm

Molly - I watched the first 4, possibly 5, of 'New Girl' on i-player. I doubt I'll watch more. "Friends" was good. I think the fact that it was 'vacant' was the whole point.

8:14 pm

(trying to think of bandaid companies)

8:14 pm

Johnson??

8:14 pm

One of the great puzzlements of my life will always be "why is Jennifer Aniston so popular?"

8:15 pm

m9 - Hi. That might be it. (I was wondering, myself!)

8:15 pm

Molly - she, per se, isn't. It was the Rachel character that was.

8:16 pm

no.. she's very popular.

8:16 pm

But, I can only speak for myself of course!

8:16 pm

And then there is the British "John Thomas" version. What is UP with that?

8:16 pm

... she was married to Brad Pitt ... which put her in the public eye

8:17 pm

But she can't act worth a squat and she keeps getting movie after movie. It just amazes me.

8:17 pm

Yes, then he dumped her for The Midnight Cowboy's ' daughter and they adopted a hundred babies.

8:18 pm

she shudda just adopted the whole Octomom family

8:18 pm

... and Jennifer becomes oh so pitiable ...

8:18 pm

or the whole Dugger family

8:18 pm

Angelina and the Octomom look a lot alike I think

8:19 pm

Oh please don't say Dugger. I saw a clip from their appearance on a morning talk show and almost lost my dinner.

8:19 pm

that Dugger woman is certifiably insane

8:19 pm

Molly - 'John Thomas' was the name of the gamekeeper in DH Lawrence's book, 'Lady Chatterley's Lover'.

8:20 pm

ok. It's Valentine's Day.. let's quit ragging on people and find something positive to say about someone!!LOL

8:20 pm

Thank you Jac!! NOW I get it. : )

8:20 pm

I'll bet the Duggers are having sex today

8:20 pm

Ruru.. nice positive.

8:21 pm

They are in New York, without their 19 children. I would hope so.

8:21 pm

just trying to help m9

8:21 pm

Molly - in the book he was called Oliver Mellors, but in DHL's original story in 1927, a year before the Lady Chatterley book came out, his name was JT.

8:21 pm

*Imagines a bawdy, raucous party at the Dugger house*

8:22 pm

I'm amazed she can still walk

8:22 pm

I got a rude card and a box of chocs for Valentine's day. What did everybody else get?

8:22 pm

... don't imagine it ... it will cause two more babies

8:22 pm

rude?...lol gotta hear it

8:22 pm

Well I don't know anyone with that many.. but I have a couple friends with 10 and they are some of the most lively and vivacious women I know!

hi. dinner out

8:23 pm

*Sound of little birds chirping* Everyone is beautiful, in their own way *Sound of Angel harps*

8:23 pm

hi herin

8:23 pm

umm.. working 9-7 at the tax office. happy v day to me~!

8:23 pm

I guess The Duggers are stars of some US show like 'America's largest family' or something?

8:23 pm

Hi Herin. x

8:24 pm

let's just say Jac.. that Planned Parenthood isn't a possibility for them

howdy

8:24 pm

Jac, if you don't know about the Duggers, please remain in blissful ignorance.

8:24 pm

Hi Herin.

they are the people that have like 19 kids or something yes?

Hi back everyone

8:24 pm

if there was ever a guy that needed a tying of the tubes

8:25 pm

I totally agree with Molly lol...hi all

8:25 pm

Being ♥ positive ♥ I just LOVE everyone ♥

8:25 pm

:-)

8:26 pm

<---born a cynic.. will die a cynic

8:26 pm

<---Has a room reserved in the Sarcasm section of Hell

Snarkcasm is better

8:27 pm

<_--- can be snarky too

8:27 pm

Okay ruru and Molly - I will. It'll be better than checking up on them later and seeing something like I saw re the religious nut on 'Trading Spouses' some years ago. http://tinyurl.com/5chzco

8:28 pm

48 to go. painful....

8:28 pm

that's any religious leader jac

That was so funny Jac. I remember there was this Trading Spouses episode where they moved someone into a Coven and the person broke the coven plate. That pissed me off at the sheer lack of respect

8:29 pm

No snarking allowed! I'm a Babbler Elder and I decree it's not allowe on Valentine's Day (though you all do know the dark origins of this day, I assume?) x

8:29 pm

Jac, I am NOT looking. I can only take so much of those types.

8:29 pm

not sure.. but I have the icon for it

8:30 pm

I don't know what a coven plate is

8:30 pm

12 years of Catholic school. I know all about Saint Valentine, the martyr.

8:30 pm

Hi all -- have to give my good news -- I can drive now!!! I can walk with a cane, and I can do stairs (carefully). Free at last! So pronounceth the physiotherapist, blessings upon him.

8:30 pm

Molly - look when you're in a calm mood. It will make you glad you are not her, or, more importantly, one of her poor children, or her husband.

Ru a coven plate is like holy item. You just don't

8:31 pm

Yay Jilli!!!

8:31 pm

Make that plural, Molly -- see my writeup.

How odd I just googled that and found it

8:31 pm

jilli - that's great! So glad to hear you're improving by leaps and bounds now. (Well, small steps and careful improvements.)

8:32 pm

Herin - googled what?

8:32 pm

hi all

8:32 pm

congrats jilli

8:32 pm

Now to scroll back and see what's been going onThe physio said "You continue to surprise me".

8:32 pm

bb in a bit

8:33 pm

The Catholics only recognize one Jilli, what can I say. (Retired Catholic)

What I was just saying

8:34 pm

brb

Apparently according to this blog written by the wife swap pagan it was just a regular plate because all of it was b.s for the camera

Any way i think I am still suffering from food coma from last night

8:36 pm

my valentines day consisted of driving 2 1/2 hours to class to have the prof look at me and say you look terrible go home

8:37 pm

yayjilli!

8:37 pm

so i did--i hope that means i don't get points off for not finishing my paper for today due to a hour nap

Poor JM

8:37 pm

*4 hour nap

8:38 pm

still 48 to go... argh grid

8:39 pm

go m9 go!

You sick still?

8:39 pm

not as much but still coughing--i should be okay for class tomorrow

8:40 pm

*Makes chicken soup for JMC and puts lavender on her pillow*

8:40 pm

Why IS it that when I have to be up early to attend some event, I stay up later than I should and consume wine? This is becoming a habit I MUST get out of!

8:40 pm

ah thanks molls you takes good care of me

Awww Jm

8:41 pm

The Divine Secrets of The Babble-Ya Sisterhood

8:41 pm

*sneaks a glass of wine from jac*

8:42 pm

47 to go!!!

8:42 pm

jm - I was actually nicking wine from Other Half's store. So, you've pinched his wine, not mine. LOL

8:42 pm

so my sister started having her kitchen redone today

8:42 pm

46!!

8:42 pm

oops maybe he won't notice!

8:42 pm

jmc - she did? That's nice for her.

8:42 pm

Wow, re-inventing the homestead is a family affair

8:43 pm

45! weird how you can go for almost an hour and not find anything..and then a bunch in a row.

8:43 pm

no -- no walls are getting knocked down at her's just new cabinets and appliances

8:43 pm

wtg m9

8:44 pm

her house is a farm house we have traced back to 1824 but believe it is older

8:44 pm

Ah, new cabinets and appliances. : )

Wow JM that is fairly awesome

8:44 pm

Hope she's not having and £18,000 kitchen that neither she nor her spouse will ever actually use! (Whoops! Sour grapes there! It rankles that my ex did that.)

8:45 pm

*Puts aspirin and a glass of water by Jac's bed-side and sets the coffee maker for extra strong*

8:45 pm

well she is spouseless--her ex is in process of divorcing his 3rd (she was second and longest)

8:45 pm

wonder what the K I'm missing is.

8:45 pm

Thanks Molly, but I like tea in the morning. I hardly ever drink coffee.

8:45 pm

and she loves to entertain and to cook and is always freezing garden stuff

8:46 pm

it probably makes more sense what she is doing than what I did

8:46 pm

jmc - she can have her lovely kitchen, then. I only object to people wasting money on 'show kitchens'.

8:47 pm

m9 - ki4/11, perhaps?

8:47 pm

no no no we are almost pure blood scottish even though our family has been this side of the pond since the 1700s

I need a new fridge. and I have to move cabinets about

8:48 pm

my new kitchen looks great but the contractor and architect wanted me to spend $6,000 on lights! and I ended up going kinda high end and spent a little over $2,000

8:48 pm

Oh, and Molly - I never take aspirins.

And clean cabinets

8:49 pm

jmc - good lighting for a kitchen that is used by the family is essential. Ours is cr*p! We've got a couple of dark corners.

8:50 pm

i got good lighting just not lighting for the Ritz!

8:50 pm

fashionable kitchens here are all granite countertops (which shatter galsses dropped on them, and need protection against stains) and stainless steel (which gathers fingerprints).

8:50 pm

<---Scraps the whole care taking idea for Jac and hopes she does just fine on her own

Good lighting is great. JM you done yet in your house?

8:50 pm

You don't need lighting for the Ritz - just the right kind of lighting in each part of the room.

8:51 pm

And hardwood floors (which need refinishing) or tile w(which needs re-grouting). Bah.

8:51 pm

not quite--found out yesterday my contractor--the poor man--is back in the hospital and they did a biopsy on him yesterday

8:51 pm

Molly - sorry! Wasn't meaning you shouldn't soothe my fevered brow. Was just enlightening you on the methods to do it.

8:51 pm

<----Agrees with Jilli about granite and stainless

8:52 pm

And hardwood floors : )

8:52 pm

well except for the stainless appliances that sounds like my news digs jill hahaha

8:52 pm

i love my hardwood floors

Gads i have seen the lino under the lino on the floor. yeps. UGly

8:53 pm

Stainless steel is very easy to clean, unlike the white bobbly sinks my contractor installed. They stain like hell and will not clean up like new.

8:53 pm

I used to have to wax my hardwood floors regularly

8:54 pm

granite smashes glasses etc. I agree on that.

8:54 pm

no you put urethane on them and they last for forty forevers

8:54 pm

and then our Danes did a sanding job on our pegged hardwood.

8:54 pm

well i have mainly plastic glasses so i think I will survive my granite tops--they were cheaper than the man made stuff

8:54 pm

We didn't have urethane in those days

8:54 pm

ah no dogs in my house

8:55 pm

I like proper hardwood floors but hate the cheap laminated fake ones. They not only look bad, but they are noisy (if you're a neighbour).

8:55 pm

brb -- suppertime

8:55 pm

See you later, jilli.x

8:55 pm

well i am lucky that i live in a semi-detached house so only one neighbour

8:55 pm

bye jilli

8:56 pm

the alley doesn't mind how noisy i am

8:56 pm

jjmc - so do I and I'm not the noisy neighbour.

Marble bench tops are lovely

8:56 pm

herin - you only need one slab of marble to make pastry on.

We have the old green and white tiles under the lino

But but but Jac it is pretty

8:57 pm

ah well i guess we have a thinker dividing wall since i can only occassionaly hear their baby cry

8:57 pm

uh that was thicker....

Our laminate on the bench top is so old it is dirty looking. I use the floor steam mop on it then clean it

8:58 pm

Herin - pretty but not necessary. There are some wonderful recycled worktops you can have.

8:58 pm

is bench what i would call a cabinet?

8:59 pm

jmc - bench top/cabinet top/work top.

8:59 pm

thanks--only occasionally need translation services

9:00 pm

jmc - y/w. LOL

9:02 pm

I'm going to have to go now. Enjoy your kitchens and try to make them as 'green' as you can. I know having a 'small carbon footprint' isn't easy in these consumer want times. But do your best! xx

9:02 pm

i do i do jac!

No bench top

9:02 pm

bye

Jac you can get recycled marble.

9:03 pm

hello all.

9:03 pm

good idea herin

9:03 pm

hi bugs

9:03 pm

bye all with 100 left i am going back to bed

9:03 pm

<--- Snobby about what she drinks out of...plastic glasses = eebie geebies

9:03 pm

NI5/16 PLS

9:03 pm

MY CAP THING IS STUCK

9:03 pm

haha molls i promise you a glass glass if you comes to the open house!

9:03 pm

Hi jmc. I was just reading about your kitchen Sounds lovelly.

9:04 pm

HI PERI !!!

9:04 pm

well take it off your head peri!

9:04 pm

HI MOLLY!

9:04 pm

HI ALL

When I was living in this old house the demolition owners used to get old houses /restaurants and you could get marble recycled.

9:04 pm

HI PERI

9:04 pm

HAHA JMC

9:04 pm

you could use your shift key

9:04 pm

ok

9:04 pm

*Wipes Peri's keyboard down with rubbing alcohol*

9:05 pm

that work but is tedious

9:05 pm

ty bugs the lights make me happy since they cost 1/3 of what the contractor and archi thought

9:05 pm

you could try rebooting but clean the key board while it is off

9:05 pm

those guys always want you to get the very best but I like getting the very best that i like

9:06 pm

i got good stuff just not expensive stuff

Shake the keyboard

9:06 pm

ACTUALLY THE CAP LOCK IS NOT STUCK, IT JUST WONT CHANGE TO LOWER CASE

9:07 pm

then i go back to reboot

Have any of you heard of the recycled place ReStore?

9:07 pm

it is not making the electrical connection

9:07 pm

no but i do try to buy recycled

9:07 pm

My husband loves the Restore herein

We don't have that here

9:08 pm

oh ic it is the resale for habitat for humanity one of my favorite charities

9:08 pm

A friend needed a new stove and he found her a self=cleaning one there for less than $100. SHe was thrilled.

9:09 pm

ok i really must be going -- but will note that all of my "new" appliances were from the dent and scratch store

9:09 pm

oh be still my cheap cheap heart!

9:09 pm

bugs, is that Restore the one for Habitat for Humanity?

9:09 pm

*poof*

9:10 pm

rebooting helped ty jmc

9:10 pm

where is a scratch and dent store

9:10 pm

It is. We get great bargains and have helped the store build 6 homes in our city.

9:10 pm

yw and most appliance stores including sears have them

9:11 pm

i found i could search the sear scratch and dent stores on line! got everything 1/2 off

9:11 pm

my hubby and I just found out about it this week. It's great!!

9:11 pm

*really poofing this time*

Closest I have is the ASIS section in Ikea

9:11 pm

the best part was when our house started to cave in last summer and he got 6 floor joists that were 15' long 2x8 old growth beams for only $25 !!

9:12 pm

bye jmc!

9:12 pm

Your house started to cave in????

9:12 pm

they have so much stuff there.....we were like kids in a candy store!

9:13 pm

I've heard of blow the roof off places.. not the other way around

When we were in IKEA there was a man that got a whole kitchen for like $100 in the Asis section

We got our ikea kitchen chairs from ASIS and my bedside table. our ikea is so expensive compaired to USA

9:14 pm

Yes. Years ago there were ants chewing on the beams that sit on the foundation so when I bot the house I had it fumigated and killed them. I didn't know that the damage cud encourage rot. Lucky for us, as the corner settled, a pipe to the washer burst and the damage was discovered when he went under the house to fix the leak

9:15 pm

wow bugs

9:15 pm

were they carpenter ants?

9:15 pm

it was pretty scare until we got the great wood from the Restore. It sure kept the costs low

9:16 pm

they were ruru. I hope you didn't have them

9:16 pm

we had some here..but we had the property sprayed

9:17 pm

I was afraid they were the worst variety of carpenter any

9:17 pm

ants

9:17 pm

well keep checking for rot then. I bot the house in 1995 so it took a long time for the damage to show up.

9:18 pm

we discovered they were Karen Carpenter ants..so we'll just sprayed

9:18 pm

muskrat love my ass...

9:18 pm

The first sign was probably that the washing machine kept going off balance so I was just readjusting the legs, not thinking that the floor was sinking!

9:19 pm

they're gone now

9:19 pm

That's Toni Tenille Ru

9:19 pm

wow bugs.. that must have been weird

9:20 pm

<---Is totally disturbed by a house sinking due to chewing bugs

9:20 pm

good thing you found out before the whole floor collapsed

9:20 pm

thank you ruru. My husband thot I shud have made the connection sooner. Of course he knew the floor cud tilt.....

In Aus they tend to spray houses first. with stumps they are tended to be treated

9:21 pm

no kidding suz!

9:21 pm

that would kind of freak me out a bit bugs

9:22 pm

oh.. you're right molly.. now I can't remember a carpenters song

9:22 pm

In the US there is seller due diligence which prevents things like that from happening.

9:22 pm

me too ruru. I'd probably dream of bugs forever!

9:22 pm

it freaked me out a lot but my husband is much calmer by nature. That helped. Then he had the talent and the tools to do the whole job himself. He was in the crawlspace and I was outside handing him things and raising and lowering the jacks. that saved us thousands too

our house is too low to get our heating actually properly fixed :/

9:23 pm

♪ Why do birds...suddenly appear ♪ every time ♪ you are near? ♪ Just like me ♪ they want to be ♪ close to you

9:23 pm

you should think about clean crawl space bugs if you have them up there

9:23 pm

I treated the ants when my house inspector found them but at that time, the damage was not much

9:24 pm

oh.. thanks molly

9:24 pm
