according to the online Yiddish dictionary it is shtup
this is why i love babble
'she's been shtupping the milk man for years.'
e's are: ed 4 et 4 et 4, 5
can't find it either jilli
I know the rightmost N isn't nearly as interesting as shtupping, but stats, pleeeze?
reminds me of a Bette Midler comedy routine where she refers to "Shtup like rabbits"
grandmas are sometimes called na4

missing 1 t
nvm i forgot mitchs list is up
doesnt blut mean werewolf or is that blud?
bl5 - jewish soul food
still play a lot of boggle at serpentine, a pretty good site if you're into it
ty mab
basically tangle at a different site
I always forget to check out that site
Serpentine is too effing difficult
That's at Cobra Dragon Games, right?
yeah, http://games.cobradragon.com/
Too hard for me...
wish more people played there - it's better than the rest of boggle-type games out there - other than this one, of course :)
can you mouse yet?
Many people tried it, but they leave, because you can never get ahead there
eh, it's still kinda iffy - i've never tried it
my typing isn't that fast...so i moused at tangle
i like eight letters in search of a word from east of the web
just as I suspected -- fliptime has been taken over by deprived tangleworders, lol!
lol jili
you were just too kind to all of us, so we stayed :)
jilli...had to be fast there...only 2 minutes per board
i think i will try that site
exact;y -- so we tortoises just sit back and plod
yeah, being a fast typist is very advantageous there
helped me being a fast typist, but not as quick at seeing words :)
typists could get to a 4000 rating....fastest mouser was about 3000
i've never been a fast typist.
I am not interested in speed
we know jilli lol
bflllt dart
we aren't always trying to be fast here...but it is hard to unsee a word you've seen
enable can do that for you
I like this because i usually remember the words I hadn't known previously - at tangle it just rehashes so quickly
agreed mitch...learn new ones here
i liked it there cause you could play for as long or as short as you wanted....didn't feel compelled to finish because it was not possible
well, sleepytime here so I shall hasten to bed -- have fun, tanglers and slowpokes (if there are any besides me) -- goodnight and ...*poof
don't see cheaters around anymore, which is nice
fireworks
wd dee
wtg Dee
night jilli
one popped in here one night...and posted list in chat..lol
ty so much glad to have your list for last 12
wtg dee...*repoof
ty jili
hah, geez
I vaguely remember that
think perhaps they got blocked by dr g
someone chatted a bunch of nonsense to get it off the screen quicker
I do remember that
it was about 7 or 8 after the flip...and the list was in alpha. order
definitely knew a program accomplished that
anyway, gonna head to bed - good luck with the grid!
well, I am off, too... need to check emails and get to bed... have another busy day tomorrow
nite volley
nite dart! nite all! poofing with hugs!
How many words today please

lol just was typing same, Dachef. Hi :)

I agree. Nasty one.
n + grains of s*** on the beach + not off and plural
it is a combo. Na6 and 7. N + (plus) + not out. And plural.
got em. Cheers,
thank you again :)

hello everybody. anybody?
... morning ruby ...
sn
hello dose
and witchy, too
67 wiords this AM, but not much hope of more
dose: is it early or late for you?
wahoo! My fourth word was the 9! Hope this is a portent on the grid to come! and good morning friends
... yeah ... just pushing 7 am Wednesday ...
just pushing after lunch, Wednesday LOL
... but gotta get ready for a job interview so can't stay long ...
trif: Thak you so much for the rainbow bridge! It was very comforting
... but I'm at the same place as you ... 72 ... but nothing looks promising
I am so glad ruby!
dos -- good luck at the interview!!!
I haven't told my husband, but "felt around" to see how he'd feel, know ing or not knowing Max's fate. He would like to think that Max was adopted by nice people
... it's just a two month gig ... but that will beat day to day substitue teaching
... then nothing is to be gained by saying more ...
I still don't think I should tell him the truth
need to drive HRH to school....back in a bit.
I think I am more resilient and also, have my babble friendws for support!!!!!
... another alternative is what happened to "Farley" .... Farley was the family dog in the comic strip "For Better or Worse" ... the youngest daughter wanders off and falls in the creek behind the house ... Farley pulls her out ... but dies of a heart attack because of the effort and the cold ...
I hope that's what happened to Max, that it was a heart attack and, at last, he was at home
... it was a shock ... there was even a protest made in the House of Commons in Ottawa ... ... but it was a noble death for an old friend
least*
but I think that my husband is too fragile to deal with the reality
and we had a |quiet" funeral for Max yesterdY
... then nothing needs to be said
TY, dose
it is terribly sad, but I have to deal with it
69 words but no i on the bottom
... in6/21 ... not the great outdoors
duh, me! thanks dose
hit me with a salmon!
... I'll list later ... and will shake my head at the 22 I've missed ... ...
I don't list, just glean from the chog and with a little help from my friends
(AND never finish since FM died)
... I list for the end ... ... used to list at 50% ... now never before two thirds ... and I try for 75% ...
back
{{trif}}
dos, I remember when Farley died pulling Elizabeth out of the creek! It was SO sad!
in fact they have started the FBOFW comic over again here, back to the beginning, and my first thought was "farley!!!"
in fact they have started the FBOFW comic over again here, back to the beginning, and my first thought was "farley!!!"
what year is that from, Trif?
morning all!
... It caught every fan completely by surprise ... ... her response was she had identified Farley's breed and Farley was getting to far past the life expectancy for the breed ... that was why she introduced the new puppy before Farley died
oh ages now....maybe 20, 25 years back?
((((ruby))))
I think it's after my time om Nio Amer
It was April Farley pulled from the creek.
{P{uusue}}
morning uusue
OMG I am only typing typos
so much for an Italian lunch!
... it would have been about 1980
If you want to see me "live" I have a link to a video in my profile
Me too!!!!
... I think
do I dare, uusue? Are you dancing?
... maybe 1985
no, ruby, I am talking and lecturing (it's a promo from the university)
I really loved that strip, and still do, though I guess the artist has retired. To watch a family grow from child to adult to parents themselves was really something. And I SWEAR there were times when Lynn Johnson -- I think that's the right spelling -- was listening in!
there was a wonderful video of me, giving a lecture on "performance glass", but it is long lost
I agree, trif!
I guess we are lucky to have "pasts"
nape time in east Dixie!
nap*
oooh, I love naps!!!'
I may need a nap today, didn't sleep well last night :-(
does anyone have the n in the far right column? I am assuming its a whatever and a plural?
... two syllables ... short for grandmother ... and a lot of noise ... .. then plural
n + grains of s*** on the beach + not out
wow, thanks -- monkeys would NOT have spit that out!
thanks!!
... as a mathematician I can only say that it takes an infinite number of monkeys
... and infinite number of monkeys will find it ... eventually ...
so, is anyone else as jacked as me that the spelling bee is coming up? flying my "word nerd" flag high!
... you sound like someone who is coaching a competitor ...
nope, not at all! just really, really love me some bee.
nice pu word to start off with!
I am loving that P today - a real interesting mix of words
and have to say, that u word is completely made up. Enable is just messing with up again
... but putrid and puissant aren't there ... and I can't persuade the monkeys to stop trying to find them there
nbs and nbt!
wahooo sue!
alas, sometimes the monkeys do rather suffer from OCD....
mine keep insisting the word "lieu" is in the grid today, and no amount of bananas seem to convince them otherwise, silly simians!
... to that mine say "rubbish" ... I will have to smack them soon ...
I looked up the u word; it is both obsolete and poetic.
thanks uusue.
rubbish -- ha ha ha!
rubbish -- ha ha ha!
sorry....
how rubish of them! see, that could totally be a word!
... very goldbergian ...
LOVE him! Primo did a whole report on him for his AP art class in hgih school. That guy was BRILLIANT
also not appearing today, to my monkey's consternation: danish.
... on the subject of AP ... did he find that he benefitted from the extra work? ...
... oh well ... there's my 80% ... past time to move on ... ... no u ... no 8 ... no 9 ... but I'll find them later ... ... barkeep! blue skies and warm temperatures for everyone! ... bye for now
Yes, dos, he absolutely did, especially the academic ones that helped him skip some freshman classes
please could someone clue me the u?
up + the ties that ****
up + a 4-letter word that means tie
ty sue
ty molly
oh, that damn dolphin got me again!!! lol

Good to hear Trif. I was nervous when she said the bleeding wasn't stopping.

Ok. That sounds much better. Keep an eye on him...swelling, lethargy, bleeding, oozing, etc.

Do you really want me to answer that? LOL!
lethargy would be a most welcome change

If a foreign-born female gives birth on an airplane in U.S. airspace, or on a ship within 12 nautical miles of the U.S. coast, her child automatically becomes a U.S. citizen.
Wow! I have a pair of Tufted Titmice doing a courting dance right out my window!!!! Cool!
lol car,mice doin the happy dance
bye, car!
Wouldn't that be the case of any country's airspace? They have to establish some sort of boundaries right?
yes except not every country counts someone born there as a citizen, car
actually the states and canada are taking a long hard look at this law,as many people are having pasport babies to taker advantage of this law
you are correct sue,not all countries do this
Oh. I see. Keep me posted then! *poof*!!!
it has been in the news a lot of late
off to work, bbl!
tc suze
Well, you can't say the Pu's don't jump out at you. Small blessings.

Hi Crossy
howdy hego
going to Punta Cana Dominican Republic for a week with a dear girlfriend
leaving next Tuesday - actually going to Boston monday night since we have such an early flight out tuesday
Sounds so relaxing.
very nice...lets see,for a week trip like that i would pack my passport,pair of undies,pair of socks,my ebook reader,a bible and a large bottle of vodka... that and the clothes i stand up in and i am ready to globe trott;))
I hope so - beach side reading, massage, umbrella drinks, kayaking
You're a guy Crossy.
my brother in law just got back from a week in the dominican republic and he is burnt to a crisp..he is so dark and brown he looks like and aged and well oiled saddle lol
now is the time I wish I had an ebook reader since the 3 books I am taking will take up alot of room in the suitcase
and you would need a bathing suit!
i would buy one there
they're great for travel, River.
I dont want to look like a saddle but a tan would sure be nice as this white pasty skin from winter
Glad to hear that, Crossy. lol
my mil says he looks like a california rasin like on the commercials
Everyone else will be white too.
lol....will need to take a picture the day we arrive and again the day we leave for contrast
good idea river! you can post them side by side when you get back
very exciting! don't get burned, now.
I must get back to work now - have a great day everyone
have my 30 sunscreen already
You too!
crossy sings heard it through the grape vine...

Love that song.

Very good. All quiet.
rubish is not a word? i use it all the time!
needs 2 b's
DH is recovering very well; the PICC line is out and no more every 8 hour antibiotics; he's in PT 3 times/week. Lifeis good!
stats for right column n, pls
Good to hear, Nef.
No idea, Bichon. Hi
hi hego, Nef
i see tvld in here, that stands for TVLand around here
hi bichon; I'm working on that right column and not finding much yet
that was my mom's favorite.
very twisty turny today.
it is indeed; hego. But parts are fun (so far)
agree
I found some needle cases.
ty hego
: )
hi crossy!
howdy jen:))
my brother's favorite cologne is here; he got a whole set of that when he was a Senior in high school and pretty much bathed in it. I've hated it ever since!
hi crossy!
howdy nef
I never knew that was a word!
when stepping out with my lady,crossy wears old spice sport
very nice Crossy
leaving for a funeral soon, one of the older ladies of the church, would have been 96 next month
poor old thing.
a long full life indeed
yes
i never mourn the passing,i celebrate the life
that's what i mean crossy, sorry
wow! What a life to celebrate
Halfway and I must go. hagd all.
i told the minister of our church that we need to change our theme to "come worship with us, we live longer!"
bye hego
bye hego. HAGD
The cat is begging for attention; she's trying to get on my keyboard
hehe nef
SHe was the Aunty's cat and has always been very stand-offish (is that a word?) She lets us pull her tail to pet her; but lately she wants her head scratched too. and is pushy about it
hold old is she?
hey, crossy. Are you still here? DH downloaded a book for his Nook; but downloaded it in Kindle form. Now what?
Jen, I think she's around 12 years old. (I'm allergic to cats too) You're a cat person, aren't you?
yes i am!
remember my parents' cat is my sister!
LOL!
that's her on my icon
is she a Manx?
yes she is, gotta go!
bye now.
hi everyone well chuffed just started and found the 9
lol,cool girl..it is bait,as bibliophile,we all found the 9 right off..it is a trap:))
hi cool. that was my first word too
hey, crossy, did you see my question to you a bit ago?
sorry no,nef
DH downloadeda Kindle for his Nook by accident. what can he do now?
kindle use proprietary formats(thats why i own a nook and the mrs a sony reader) i have no experience cracking amazon book files in kindle formatt
try epubbud.com for the book,it is a good site and is alway in e-pub format
okay. I'll let him know that he blew it (I told him that earlier, but said I'd check it out anyway)
Thanks! So things listed there are in Nook format?
the kindle is like the imperial system of the ebook world when the rest most the planet is metric:)))))
indeed
nook,sony,kobo and all the rest that are open format readers
Nef you can also try Calibre, a free ebook conversion program that will convert a kindle format to a nook format.
He got a B&N gift card from our dtr. and still managed to get Kindle format (with the Nook right in front of his face).
i use calibre beth
i do not think it can convert kindle files
Its a good program. I have a nook too.
thanks, Beth. I'll check that out.
it is an excellent program
What is the specific format for Kindle? I'll check the info on Calibre.
not sure beth, just load a kindle book and try to convert to e-pub
I'm hoping that he will learn how to do this right in the future; maybe it's because he's still tired
best is to ONLY load e-pubs,they are a cleaner better laid out format and use 50% of the space that a pdf does for example
i know you can easliy convert all the microsoft book formats no problem
Lit i think they use
I looked at Calibre's manual and I think that it can convert both the two kindle formats to epub for the nook.
well then nef,give it a spin:)
what i read is you have to crack kindles DRM to convert it
but i may be wrong
I definitely will. Thanks Beth and crossy! :-)
and you do not want to get into cracking digital right protocols
nut anything untried fails
but
Can I have a clue for the first sn5?. It's the only one that I have left.
I get into enough trouble without going there, crossy!
soory, Kenny. The 1 sn 5 I foundis stupid but not the first
epubbud.com will keep you busy for a while,and all the work is already done for you
# of words on this grid please
hins
Got it
96, 10s
WTG, Kenny!
ty Nef
crossy, there's an epubud.com and an epubbud.com. Both seem to be about books; which one is the right onw?
I use calibre to convert. Must admit never tried cracking DRM that I know of. The biggest problem with DRM protected works is getting them out of the device they are loaded onto in the first place. In other words, if you have it on your PC, it likely doesn't have DRM on it in the first place.... I have that problem with a few books my daughter bought on her Kobo and then put a chair leg through the screen...
I routinely convert MOBI, PDF, RTF, TXT, DOC and EPUB to EPUB. The Epub to Epub allows me to set variable fonts. Need the bigger fonts for lowlight conditions on these old eyeballs.
thanks, brandyjack. Nice to see you around again too!
sorry www.epubbud.com
which is the correct epub site? epbbud or epubud?
thanks, crossy.
now,nothing is really listed,you have to go to epubud.com kind of knowing what you already want
I have the older Kobo, the newer Kobo touch, and the newest Kobo Colour android. Daughter is hardest on them....
okay. I'm over there exploring now
somehow, it sounds like she's a pretty tough kid, brandy (putting a chair leg through aebook....
(sorry, my typing skills are sadly lacking today)
It's easy. put the Kobo in your purse, move the chair whilst still sitting on it, and find the purse. Can we say CRUNCH.
Of course, when it comes to smart phones, I am the great executioner there.... Drop them from great hieghts, slanm them in the car door latching pins, sitting on them, just plain dropping them perfectly on one corner.... The girls kill them by washing them...
Quick hello. Brandyjack long time no sea
OUCH! I just bought a smart phone and it's way too smart for me so far. :-( But I can text the kids a lot better than my old flip phone did (darn kids prefer texting to talking it seems)
hi herin.
It is 230am here and as I haven't seen you all at this time for ever I wave hello
hello again
if you understand Usenet News, check out alt.binaries.e-books, alt.binaries.e-books.flood

LOL! I agree, that shouldn't exist
yup

hi, nef, ursh, urda, bichon, et al
isn't it, seain? I got it before I got the 7
i found the 7 first
i'm slower to get left-curving words
I though the grid would be easy then, but I'm not even half way yet.
yes, since then it's been slow :)
must be my left handed brain that found the 9 first
i'm back
hi, jen
think this is one of the toughest grids I've seen - lots of outlandish words and the regular ones are twisty
short funeral, Jen? Or you must live close to the church?

thank for that, nan, and good morning

TLC makes me think of English 302, which was targeted based on majors. I was a Spanish major, but ended up in a section for science majors, where they taught science writing. I entered uni after 4 years working in a biotech lab -- talk about a waste of a class.
PU 9/90

didn't know you were expecting twins, nan -- one for each golf bag???
didn't know you were expecting twins, nan -- one for each golf bag???

What's Wrong?
Sorry I thought you said upset.

I'm hallucinating.
Nah, not upset at all! How are you hego?
Beside being a little confused, okay. lol
Deep breaths!
: D
I have new glasses and they're making me dizzy.
That's my story and I'm sticking to it!!
I got varifocals last year and I was a bit dizzy at first, I am accustomed to them now.
I've had them for years, but every new pair can cause problems for a while.
I am done and must go. Good nite All!
Sorry hego, as usual I get pulled away by one of the kids. . . good night, hope the dizziness goes away!
I AM SO FRIED!!!!
kitchen mishap?
No
I wish
My girls are having meltdowns and they are not little kids and I can't fix it for them
maybe i should have been more sensitive. oh my goodness, what happened.
you don't have to be more sensitive. This is a CHOG, not group therapy.
It's OK- just my 22 year old whose young man can't give her the commitment she needs, and my almost 17 year old carrying anxiety that she doesn't know how to deal with over the college process
nu, if wishes were horses...
nu, if wishes were horses... tell them that you all you can do is listen and empathize. which is true.
If wishes were horses, would I be stable?
(((Kap))) so sorry to hear you are having kid trouble!
how do you feel about that.
please raise your hand to be acknowledged.
The youngest is dealing with it by being horrible to us, and the older one calls me wishing I could tell her what to do, which I can't
I don't ask people to raise their hands in groups, seriously.
well as for the youngest, that's not the way to get anyone to help.
yeah, you bet.
it's actually not that difficult. maybe it's moreso than when i was college age
Work is not exactly a relief.
She is so anxious about the process that she is making herself sick
the eldest, sadly, has to go through this. there is nothing she can do, and some day he's going to go away or else she will.
yes, the college thing is so much more intense than when I was that age.
Is she applying to someplace very selective, kap?
I just wanna watch my soap opera and forget about it
i would try hiding if i were you.
got a closet with an outlet?
I need
I just wanna watch my soap opera
where people are stable and rational
She told him he should never come back into her life again because it's too painful
maybe a 60s era bomb shelter. i think they are back in fashion
maybe a 60s era bomb shelter.
The 16 year old is just overwhelmed with her own perfectionism and needs us to fix everything.
maybe a 60s era bomb shelter. i think they
I think a padded cell.
Alcohol.
Perhaps a sedative
Xanax. Babble.
TV. a. Chocolate.
Thumb sucking.
Calgon...to take you away.
Sitting outside in the sun - in a place where no one sees me - works for me sometimes.
Also alcohol and chocolate.
It's cloudy and damp.
And sometimes shopping.
me 6/24 any clues?
Ear plugs
I really wish I had a job as a paper shredder. I could sit all day feeding papers into its maw. It is so satisfying.
me6/24...Ton Loc song "Funky Cold me6"
I would sit with a chocolate bar in one hand and feed papers into the shredder. Nice.
are back in fashion. my computer is behaving irratically
with a chocolate martini...
don`t know that one molly any other clues?
You take ***icine when you are sick + T*** Turner is a singer.
cold and damp? that's why the lady is a tramp.
tx molly got it
Can't sing. Too fried.
Name that proper Mount Medical Center.
with all the apocolypses coming, why even go to college.
Good point.
i wish i had a job throwing flower pots at the wall
That would be my fallback job.
But paper shredder feeder is first.
not as tiring
Then there is work as a TV critic. If I could only be a critic of old shows that I already like.
I could write criticism of Sgt. Bilko.
i wish i would wake up and not know who i am and wander off some where and start a new life. fugue the call it.
I hear ya, Mab.
i wish i could live in the dick van dyke show
Oh, my God, that's Millie!
i don't actually want to be married to jerry. also, they have several children.
Oh then- forget it. How about Sally, looking for a husband?
too much whinging about not having a husband.
buddy
maybe alan brady or buddy
Mel.
nu, the pressure from alan and buddy
You know the movie Pleasantville?
yes, very good
It's one of my favorites.
Yes, it's very pleasant.
very original
Stefano is still obsessed with Marlena, Molly.
I've seen it several times and still laugh when I see the breakfast table.
i see we have an4/5 and bh4/8but no ifs
need pu 8/65 anyone?
stefano has to be a villian, iwth a name like that
Hope is going to turn into Princess Gina again.
what you want for that novel you wrote, maj
pu8 was my first word. Very nice word too.
I actually caught five minutes of Days last week in the lunch room. Some guy was saying "I can't believe I trusted Sami again." Ahahahahaha!
I sometimes
engage in real life as an escape from the soaps
aw, a princess. how nice
need the pu 8/65 i have the 8/60
nm got it
The Princess Gina thing was the dumbest thing DAYS ever did (except for Carrie and Austin on the flying carpet). I can't believe they are bringing it back. Are they TRYING to get cancelled?
i wish i were a princess too. it's damned unfair
Something you must do or perish.
like a particular color, maj
can i have a clue for the as5/12 please
wait wait wait....
princess gina is back?
flying carpets? they must be running out of plot lines.
remember carol burnett's soap. people kept having 'illegitimate' babies and she'd throw them in the closet.
Ha Ha!
no one has the as5/12?? ive spent 1/2 a hour lokoing for it lol
pu8.65 starts like the royal color but then end like it can't see Mab. Morning all
a & not front or back Cos
Princess Gina is coming back because Stephano has sent John and Hope to Alemania and Bo is in a coma
i don't. just the 14
ah duh thanks lyn
Bo is in a coma? Pete Reckell must have another gig.
Alemania?
Hello all....
No- it's just his turn to be in a coma, that's all.
the word means like that color, lynxx
Alemania I think is a country run by Vivian Alemain, but I'm not sure.
I think we are at war with them
ty lynxxx
Shady doings.
Hi Mab. The pu8.65 doesn't mean like the color
sanib
sorry
oh, then it must be what one hopes happens to ones novel
Something you do, or perish.
Pu8 or perish.
No. The pu8.65 means dim sighted
my chat keeps eating my chat. I hope the show doesn't offend any Alemaniac viewers.
oh yes. sound of cat and short sighted
My youngest has a week of special seminars rather than regular school this week, and she actually blew it off today, so we have to ground her. She is acting out in a way that she never has before- she's a top student - but I think she is really asking for limits.
We actually are going to take away phone, tv and computer for two nights, and she has to come directly home.
she must be a little freaked out about the college thing
a lot freaked
It has built up so badly for her and she does not know at all how to put it in perspective, and so she is just exploding all over the place. It is sad to watch.
poor kid
So it comes out as fury at home. She works so hard to be perfect and not let anyone see how anxious she is. But it's not working. Thing is, we have never imposed this stuff on her.
if this were television, a neighbor would be murdered and she could then solve the mystery. that would help.
Thank goodness you have an evil sense of humor.
the main thing is distraction
is she going out of state for college?
I'll leave you 2 to your madness - I need some excercise. Bye all
it works for Veronica
She is only a junior, but sometime last year she decided she has to go to Barnard and only Barnard.
thus the anxiety.
ah ok never mind then.. i was thinking if she was leaving soon maybe thats why but nope
If only!
Veronica Mars
veronica Lodge.
Betty Cooper and Veronica Lodge.
I suppose applying to other ivy league colleges would not lessen the tension
i prefer veronica.. betty is too goody two shoes for me. then again i prefer reggie over archie
i don't know Betty and Ms. lodge.
Archie's friends.
Archie and Jughead?
oh.
You didn't study them in AP Lit?
never read comic books
maus, i read that
i wrote a play for my jr. high based on archie.. i was reggie lol
They're called graphic novels.
cute.

I would like to relocate to the gulf coast of Florida
but really don't want to do it alone
pu5?
pu5 another word for bar (where you drink) with a vowel dropped in near the end
thanks Peri, looking. Gulf coast is nice, but deoending on where yougo, expensive, or super rural.
bars actually
bars actually
can
thanks!
can't do expensive and don't want rural. any other suggestions red. want to be near the beach
yw cos
a friend recently moved to Sarasota
I personally think the Space Coast part of Florida is less expensive.
is that on the gulf coast tho
well Sarasorta is nice. peri, do you like Very hot and very humid weather? the summers here are very very intense.
I don';t mind hot, humid not too crazy about
Soace coast is the Atlantic coast, which I kind of like better.
but it is cooler near the beach, no?
the sand is white on the gulf side and softer, so I am told
You might really want to consider relocation, I mean, it's March, and we are hitting 90 every day, and the humidity has been near 80%, and will stay that way until october...
though this week has been nice.
I think everyone should visit in July/August to decide.
THe sand on the gulf side is sort of white and may be softer...I dunno.
I will talk with my friend in Sarasota.
16 to go, bbl
But the winter is great!

hi there, MP, is all well?
hi to all
doing ok my husbands cancer came back as expected just wished it would have slept a little longer....but we are on second chemo topotecan every Fri morn in Bethesda
how have you and yours been?
((((MPitt)))) serious lag here, but saw what's up as I was coming in to shut down.
will keep you in my heart, and hope the prognosis will be better than average once chemo is over.
going to go close things up for the night -- see you-all again soon, I hope *poof*
yes stid...that's why I haven't been on very much since last spring...
I will never lose hope hoqwever prognosis is one of the worst possible praying the scientists discover a miracle for small cell lung extensive mets to liver....
damn cigarettes---damn cancer---
sorry to hear about the cancer, MP
I'm alright. Tom's been getting screened for a heart transplant.
OMG so sorry he neeeds one...but you & I live in a wonderful area for critical medical care
yes we do
28 to go for me...
go MP go!
sorry to hear both MP and dc's news :-(
yes sometimes life sucks but it is always better than the alternative so we mush push on through our trials and tribulations and grab every goodness keep positivity around you and be thankful for what we have not what we don't. I am so very lucky to have had a man like my husband in my life for 34 years...oh not all has been rosey but then what is...it has been normal and just right for us...we are so lucky
forgive my typos but they made me laugh..."mush push" ha, ha, ha
hi, jmc, and i agre with MP
LOVELY photo of you in the Gulf, jmc
jmc did you move? and get a new job? have been lurking some
i too am very sorry to learn of Tom and continue to keep MP's husband in heart. positivity is the thing - something i don't practice nearly enough, just in general.
jmc did a beautiful expansion and renovation of the rear of her home.
mab positivity is like most things in life that are worth it...you have to work at it...I recently had a crash week when we found out his cancer had recurred from 3/14 until about 1 week ago I lost my strong fortiude and let tears and fear in but I just let the tears wash away those weak moments and now I am refocused on the positive...
it is, like most things, a matter of simply doing it, and one improves, isn't it. I am sorry you and husband are going through this. You show great wisdom.
dc remember seeing some chat awhile back regarding jmc kitchen and window treatments I think...I got busy this week and since we gave up our boat and jet skis and summer place at Lake Anna I decided to fix up our patio for our staycation pleasure and I am almost done...had to make a few trips to target and the thrift stores for deco...like how I said "had to" thats so funny....
dc, is Tom your partner? if you don't mind my asking - ignore me if you do.
mab I like the thought that it is not how long you live but rather how you live..those words have been helpful to us...
The mind is a powerful thing and used properly it can make the most of life...
evening all
you can be up beat or you can be depressed but having gone through i can say up beat is better
hi jes
i agree mp. hi jes.
love your profile, mab :)
yes jmc...agree whole heartily...when we first got the grim news and Joe was so so sick and near death I told him I would not waste our time together crying that I wanted us to have the best times together and one day there would be time for tears but not while he is here...
oh yes. and you have had that experience.
