2:16 am

ugh..crossy hates insomnia:(

2:47 am

poor crossy! you still here, mate?

2:49 am

still here

2:50 am

ahhh! was just about to give up and go. how are yoyu, buddy?

2:50 am

not bad,except cannot sleep.i quit the smokes ten years ago but am still paying for it sadly

2:51 am

i did this last night, lay in bed watching the numbers change. gave up at 5:45am, after i rolled over and banged my knee against the other one.

2:52 am

i sleep with one of those long body pillow tween my knees now or the bursitis keeps me up.you just had knee work done did you not?

2:52 am

ten years is a long time, crossy. perhaps some other thing which has crept in when you weren't looking? have you tried melatonin?

2:53 am

yes, mate. a total knee replacement 7 weeks ago.

2:55 am

ouch.you use a body pillow?

2:56 am

great things they are.why should the pregnant ladies have all the fun with them? lol

2:56 am

just Don, even when he's asleep. lol. i have a very small pillow which allows me to rest for short periods on my left side. problem is the quads attachment to my inner shin aches.

2:57 am

i would get one then sleep on your side with bad kneed facing upand body pillow tween yer legs

2:57 am

crossy, do you have a massage cream with arnica in it? arnica is very good for inflammatory sorts of aches and pains

2:57 am

i also used one years ago when i busted both legs

2:58 am

i will have to look some up

2:58 am

hmmmm. Don might not appreciate that....if you get my drift...* naughty giggle *

2:58 am

right now it is large doses of advill and specila exercises,not to cortizone injection stage quite yet

2:58 am

lol..poor don

2:59 am

can highly recommend it, crossy. it kept me functioning through an 8 hour shift, until i could afford the time off.

3:00 am

try to put off the cortisone injections as long as possible. what they don't tell youis, that the cortisone softens the bones, and if surgery is required, you lose a lot more bone.

3:00 am

lol 4 am here kitten is sleeping on my desk on left side of the keyboard and has developed a case of the hiccups;0

3:00 am

i have heard that granny

3:01 am

lol, poor kitty

3:01 am

indeed he was just fixed yesterday

3:02 am

i was supposed to have arepeat arthroscopy and cortisone injections last november, but with the help of arnica and a good 4 way support bandage, made it through to june this year.

3:03 am

wow.your poor knees are a ruin:(

3:03 am

ouch for kitty, but you will be thankful in the long run.

3:04 am

good news is, now that i have had the surgery, the pain in my other knee and both hips has gone. i can now walk for 25 minutes continuously without pain.

3:04 am

very nice

3:06 am

yes, and at rest most of the time, my pain levels are 50% of pre-op levels

3:07 am

btw, how is mrs crossy? is she well? haven't seen her in chog lately. she must be very busy.

3:08 am

darn, meant to email ruru, and have closed my account. * sigh * at least re-opening doesn't involve walking. lol

I never bother with trying to finish but I do like to get over half way and nbt and nbs before I call it a day, it would be lovely to have a really big grid instead of all these little ones we have had lately

3:24 am

i prefer them between 200 and 300.under that and they are evil and babblet filled and over that they are just filled with every ending variety you can think of and it just becomes a typing endurance slog

4:15 am

ten-15 min

4:15 am

and the alarm is set for when?

4:15 am

4:16 am

not to worry,i have no mid life delusions.the young 25 year olds at the stores call me sir now and ask if i need help carrying that package to my car:(

4:17 am

dives for under the pillows.

4:18 am

or you are chatting one up and you mention a concert you went to and she say"wow same year i was born" you excuse yourself and run for the hills

4:18 am

mind you i have to be up at 6:15am, for hydrotherapy. i swear my physio has a degree in sadism.

4:18 am

are they not evil?

4:19 am

sad thing is, he says it's a requirement for the job. :(

4:19 am

when i was recovering from my broken legs i had one woman i swear she must read desade every night before bed

4:19 am

why 6.15am, thats ridiculous Rose...has he no respect for age

4:19 am

though hydrotherapy is nice

4:19 am

(waiting)

4:20 am

and the nice warm wax treatments

4:20 am

lol, if you could only hear what is happening behind me. himself is mutttering about some computer stuff....and my head is going,,,,and????

4:21 am

lyn, pool is at special school, so we actually get first dibs on the pool after it has been cleaned and filtered all night, if you catch my drift.

4:21 am

crossy also talks in his sleep..cannot get away with nothing:(

4:22 am

OK cleanliness is next to....seems like a pretty good idea then

4:22 am

poor crossy....and himself isn't asleep. i just keep saying, uh-huh, and yeah?, and really?

4:22 am

is MIL still at respite?

4:23 am

she's home, lyn. but much better since we took her to GP. they do so over-medicate her in respite.

* giggle * lyn, she says it's like living with a doctor.

4:26 am

my mil is recently back home from being overmedicated.she has so many doctors and 3 pharmacies.nobody seems to cross reference her meds unless we push it

4:27 am

that's so wrong, crossy. in oz land, all our pharmacy computers, hospital and otherwise, are linked.

4:27 am

she is lightly mobile but on o2 almost 24/7

4:27 am

ours are here as well and we use but one pharmacy and they keep track also

4:28 am

we are nearly at that point here, crossy. mother mac only has 50% of one lung functioning. the other is completely defunct.

4:28 am

my mil is at 40% tween the 2 lungs

4:29 am

and STILL tries to sneak a smoke now and then

4:29 am

so how????....never mind....one assumes the professionals log into the computer or check the health records, right?

4:29 am

so how long can an elderly person last like that

4:30 am

how old is she, crossy?

4:30 am

hello

4:30 am

{{rose}}

4:30 am

4:33 am

she has no choice

4:34 am

and my sweetness Ruby is also in decline -- woe is me!

4:34 am

if she could breathe better,i am sure she would still be smoking

4:34 am

4:34 am

ahhh, ruby.....hugs my darling.

4:34 am

I am so tired and feel like I'm running a clinic!

4:34 am

poor ruby:((

4:35 am

fortunately, this time I discovered it after less than 2 hrs and got a doc to come within another half hour, so the antibiotics went to work quickly

4:35 am

the last time, his doc came and said it was nothing and he wound up terribly ill and in the hospital, four days later!

4:35 am

clever girl - now just make sure you are looking after No 1 as well

4:35 am

trying

4:36 am

He woke up from a nap and I could hear his distress when he called me and was already running a fever

4:36 am

his chest was noisy

4:37 am

do you have puffers?

4:37 am

he doesn't have much resistance to things any more

4:37 am

no, that's for sure, and he's losing his memory rapidly

4:37 am

two pneumonias in 7 months seems like a lot, plus falls in between

4:37 am

what's a puffer?

4:38 am

you do get in help for yourself - inside the house as well...you musn't run yourself ragged Ruby

4:38 am

inhalers.ventolin and beclovent.in haled meds to ease breathing

7:36 am

Hi ((Mom))...et al

7:37 am

phone

7:37 am

hi Flask

7:38 am

(((Flask))) hello

7:38 am

bye Annie

7:41 am

Just watched the mens marathon here.....

7:42 am

amazing how each of us are watching something else

7:42 am

hi all

7:43 am

I know...sadly its all finishing!

7:43 am

hi Carlee

7:43 am

i always go through olympic withdrawal

7:43 am

hi lynxxx

7:44 am

Hi ((Carlee))

7:44 am

{{mom}} how are you?

7:45 am

I love the olympics, but it isn't worth watching here. IT is so chopped up and the commericals :-(

7:45 am

just fine carlee, and you?

7:45 am

school starting soon?

7:45 am

yea... yay NBC.... we get it 24/7

7:46 am

yea...sept 6...i have my timetable... its going to be a rough year but... i have no choice

7:46 am

we have NBC sports channel as well as NBC but all we see are volleyball and basketball on that channel

7:46 am

right around the corner, then. You will make it, you are determined

7:47 am

ugh... sad..we have 3 channels running with events live and can watch 6 other "feeds" online...so no commentary..but watch the events and standings

7:48 am

so pretty much any event as it is happening..we can watch... without commercials... and..not so much determined as scared craples what happens if i fail

Hello and good bye all. I have just had the super unpleasant experience of discovering that my milk has gone all chunky...fresh brewed and ground coffee, and that!

7:48 am

crapless*

7:49 am

OH Red, that stinks

7:49 am

bleh! Red

7:49 am

ewwwwww.....although when faced with that..i can make do with a bit of sugar in lieu of milk and make it drinkable

7:49 am

Carlee, you will not fail

:( BUt I did get to see most of the Mens marathon. I live right beside a grocery...

7:50 am

i know I wont..am too scared :p

7:50 am

so I was talkig to MRP the other day on skype..she told me tell everyone hello

7:50 am

hello to her as well.

7:50 am

Her little ones, what they have had to go through

7:50 am

I will pass it on mom

7:51 am

thanks

7:51 am

i havent had all the gory details..but yes... a lot in their lives...up side.. they will be strong like their mum when they are grown

7:52 am

very much so, Carlee

7:52 am

Lickety was on the other day..I came on as he was leaving but I got the impression they are separated. Is it true?

7:52 am

welcome back Annie

7:53 am

thanks Mom

7:53 am

oh yes annie...they are

7:54 am

sorry to learn that

7:56 am

they have gone their separate ways, living separate lives. I think it is no secret that there are a lot of unpleasant feelings and lickety has moved on ( I hope that is..politically correct enough without being gossipy )... MRp will let everyone know when she is ready i am sure

7:56 am

but she sends her love and says hello

7:57 am

Yes and apparently sharing the kids 50/50. The kids must both be teenagers now? I am sure they will manage OK as long as the parents can get along..they have been through a lot over the time we have all known them so that will make them pretty resiliant

7:59 am

its tragic..but large life events... either makes a couple incredibly strong..or pulls them apart ( like in my case)...

8:00 am

((carlee))

8:00 am

It can make one person incredibly strong too - I see that in you Carlee

8:03 am

thanks lynxxx...mom... although... honestly..i dont feel strong most days... and when people say " you are so strong" i dont see it. I dont have a choice...i just git'r'done

8:04 am

I think we always underestimate ourselves and our strength

8:04 am

and days i dont HAVE to git'r'done... i tend to do NOTHING

8:04 am

it is time for me to go and start my day. It was great to see off of you. I treasure each and everyone of you. (((Hugs)))

8:05 am

and i often times dont even understand what people actually mean by...strong... i just keep dealing with the crap of life

8:05 am

bye Mom x

8:05 am

have a great day mom... hopefully NBC doesnt edit the closing ceremonies and you get to see them all

8:05 am

(((Lynxxx))) good night

8:05 am

bye ((Mom)) have a grand day

8:05 am

maybe strong is not the right word but you know what we mean

8:06 am

you as well, ((Carlee and Annie)))

8:06 am

{{mom}}

8:06 am

dealing aka strong ...that's it.

8:06 am

carlee, getting 'rdone is being strong..you never gave up. You are going to school to have a decent future for yourself.

8:07 am

dealing is just surviving... that not strong... that just taking what you have and getting through it...

8:08 am

there are many more people out there dealing with far more and surviving and excelling... i wont know if I get to excell for a couple years..

8:08 am

carlee, you get up, you do what has to be done, schooling for example..you are surviving well, then

8:08 am

some days..others not so well... yesterday was a bad day...

8:09 am

carlee, We all have bad days. Nothing new. But you will not lay down and accept defeat. Keep up truckin.

8:10 am

Keep on truckin.

8:10 am

:)

8:10 am

( does this grid stink?)

8:10 am

It's a so-so grid.

8:11 am

ok

8:11 am

I must go....treat yourself today Carlee, have a day off and start next week with a smile ((Carlee))

8:11 am

and go for a manicure.

8:12 am

bye lynxxx, have a good night.

8:12 am

thanks lynxxx... no..i have stuff to git done...

8:12 am

{{lynxxx}}

8:13 am

no $ for a manicure annie... that part of why yesterday was a crap day..i am applying for a bursary from the school for "broke" students...i had to go through paperwork showing my expenses.. and needs etc..truly pathetic... and today I get to write a 1000 word essay WHY I am asking for $

8:13 am

incredibly...demoralising... begging for money

8:14 am

but..its 2K so...in the end worth it... just.. humiliating to be 45 and have nothing to show for a life..

8:15 am

Carlee, I know. However you are not begging. You are asking for financial aid to continue your education so that you will have a better future for you and your children. Good luck and don't give up.

8:16 am

carlee, You may not believe me but you are very young and have namy good years ahead of you. But one day, you will believe me. You will make something of your life. You will.

8:17 am

to top things off...i found out I am actually getting my father's ring..( was a ring my mum gave him when they were teens... is a nice cobachon ruby set in gold)... my father lef tme nothing... my step mother got everything ( i am an only child) ( he had a private twin engine 8 seater plane..) nothing for my kids...and she gave a "box of stuff" to my aunts... in it was the ring...they are giving me the ring... but my step mother... did not think I should have anything of my fathers

8:18 am

so...yes am happy about the ring... but the circumstances made me feel pretty crappy... it was a bad day..ok..done venting...

8:18 am

carlee, then she is a sh*t but glad you got the ring.

8:19 am

Can a lawyer help you? Will that cost money or will he or she take it on a contingency basis?

Ok I have returned. With Milk. I forgot my wallet soI ended up having to look for space change for it in my car. Something tells me this is so far, not really my day. Hope the rest of the week improves!

8:20 am

yes...she is... I just keep wondering when do things..start to change for me... i guess MRp and I have that in common... sh*t just keeps happening to both of us... and life just keeps dealing out more sh*t

very glad you are getting the ring, that will be nice.

8:20 am

it was his choice... he was a grown man...his $ to deal with how he saw fit

8:21 am

thannks rth )

8:21 am

Then let it go and concentrate on your life.

8:22 am

i am trying..its just a little fresh atm... give me a couple days....and it will be gone

8:22 am

When I was in a bad place I gave myself a set amount of time to whine and feel sorry for myself and then I let it go. 2 days max.

8:23 am

carlee, why dont you call Scarlet and hash this out with her or have you done that already?

8:24 am

i have not heard from her in months... not sure what is up... and...i cant..long distance... I really dont have the $ right now for anything extra...its rent... food..gas... utilities...and nothing extra right now

8:26 am

Email her if you want to.

8:26 am

i havent found a new job... and I didnt meet requirements for employment ins... there is no income but for OSAp come september... i am living off of left over OSAp and mum is helping

8:27 am

Moms are always there. Bless them. What about the ex? Can he tide you over for a while? You took care of him when he needed it.

8:28 am

she has not replied :( ..its ok..am in touch with her daughter a bit... she goes underground when she is dealing with her own things..my stuff would only add to her load.. she will resurface when she is ready to cope... I know beloved was having a rough go with his parkinsons and is in a wheelchair now..he's a large man..and scarlet is a bitty little thing..so is difficult

8:28 am

he has helped a bit too... and for that I am grateful...I dont expect more assistance from him..

8:28 am

Oh dear, sad about beloved.

8:28 am

i just have to hang on for 4 more weeks

8:29 am

carlee, ask him. perhaps for a month or so, till you get a job.

8:29 am

yes...it was....

8:29 am

carlee, when you come to the end of your rope, tie a knot and hang on.

8:31 am

yeap...you do that too... :)

8:31 am

and no.. i wont... if he offers again... i will accept...but no... i wont ask

8:33 am

10:11 am

Crosshair,are you still here?I am about to post my story

10:12 am

i am here

10:13 am

I am almost do 4/5 with th 4/5 grid so now I will be a do 5/12 and donate a story with a ro5/14 of clues to ai 4/5 you with the grid. Many years ago, I adopted a rescue dog from Hu 5/14, Texas. I named him Ru 4/5y. Ru 4/5y played a major ro4/4 in my life.I was so impressed with his no 4/5. He was so smart! I loved Ru4/5y & he loved me.We id4/5ized each other.He went everywhere with me like the de4/5 or Dunkin' Do6/24.Every night, Ru4/5y slept at the fo 4/7 of my bed & every morning he would ro 5/12 me out of bed with many face licks. I taught him some amazing tricks. I taught him how to play hi4/5 and seek.I taught him how to walk in a straight li4/4 with his eyes closed. He was able to si 4/7 through my laundry and separate the darks from the whites. We ate every meal together.After I ate a lo 4/4 of pork, my dog would chew on the bone.I have a great hi4/5ory with my dog. Th 4/5 one day Ru4/5y di4/6 after getting hit by a drunk driver.As he passed away,I shook my fi4/7 at God and yelled at him for taking my dog away from me. I was st 4/5ned how he was taken away from me in just a split second. I experienced terrible do6/24 when he passed away. I felt so alo4/4 and forlo4/4 when he was gone. I did not take his death well.For many months I ho4/8ed it on over to the bar to ho 5/12 several beers. I also su 4/6 the drunk driver, but that did not bring back my dog. After he passed away, my mom told me to have fa5/18 in that I'd get another dog just as unique as Ru4/5y.I do have another dog now named Ru4/6, but she's nothing like my other dog. Husband is being a ro 4/4 pain in the butt and wants to to ou4/5 me off the laptop. He wants a tu4/5 on the computer. I hope that you've found some more words that are hi 6/27 in the grid. I am going to go watch the movie "The Li4/4 King" th4/5 I will be back to finish the puzzle & to help out with clues. Be back later.

11:29 am

11:30 am

11:30 am

We need a new transmission in ours.

11:31 am

You know what my favorite thing is? Those tables to fold all your clothes on! They are the perfect height for me!

It is tax-free weekend here, so today is the day.

11:42 am

too bad you cant watch online... stiddy tried...with our network...

11:42 am

Not with "Old Sparky"! Maybe with one of the kids laptops.

11:42 am

ctv is carrying...and you go online and they have 8 feeds...so if not covered by one of 3 affiliated channels... ( ctv, tsn and sportsnet).... you can still watch

11:43 am

so.basically anything going on.... we had option to see.live

11:43 am

nbc.com is also doing that.

11:46 am

car.eeyore--NBC did poor coverage, 2b sure; netxt summer games may be better, but don't count on it. With instand messaging thru social media, it doeesn't really matter anymore, since we'll know the scores, winners in seconds from those that are there

evening everyone

2:06 pm

Hello KatieMcG! How are you doing? Welcome to chog.

Hi Katie, how is everything?

2:08 pm

Good thanks Min & Red. Just killing time until the closing ceremony

they are showing us Rhythmic Gymnastics...which I will admit, I think is a little odd.

2:09 pm

those gymnasts are incredible - i am watching too

2:09 pm

odd yes, but wow- the work

2:09 pm

We are going through all our medals and other highlights as we still have nearly an hour before the party starts

It's very pretty.

My Hero finished 47th or so in the marathon today!

2:10 pm

nice going!

2:10 pm

who is it red?

A man named Guor Marial. He ran under the Olympic Flag. But he really is South Sudanese.

2:11 pm

wow what an achievement

It was only his 3rd marathon ever.

2:12 pm

now THAT is what the olympics is all about

I am a bit disappointed that all the choices he had to make were not highlighted. It IS what the Olympics is about.

He posted HUGE fast times, and SUDAN, the government that is currently kicking out Southern refugees offered him a spot on their team...

2:14 pm

H's Hounded! 1 left

2:14 pm

We had a diver who is 18 he won a bronze. Normal story but he has had such attention since he went to the last Olympics last time and he lost his dad last year to a brain tumor, I think that the whole nation screamed him to that medal

He very politely and without fanfare said no. I can think that many others would have put aside the

2:15 pm

I am saving my last word for later.I will be here off and on for clues. I have also posted story in profile already.

Was that TOm Daley? we were also screaming for him!

2:15 pm

yes it was, I think he had millions of mothers last night

I loved his story. And I think he really loved doing it for a home crowd.

err what I was trying to say is that so many people change nationalities etc for a shot at the Olympics, but this guy just said no, and was not planning on running at all...

I'm curious if he will be running for the US in Rio, as he is almost a US citisen.

2:17 pm

when he was 14 at the last games he got so much attention that he had to move schools because he was being bullied - his dad was epic insisting that Tom was just a boy and had to have a happy childhood

Wow. Who would bully an Olympian?

2:17 pm

I will look him up red, I didn't know you could run when you weren't representing your Country

2:18 pm

small minded jealous people red

2:18 pm

I was thinking of you last night red when I was on my feet screaming "go on Mo"

THere is a precedent, Over the years, there have been athletes that have run under the Olympic flag, usually from nations experiencing unrest. (South Sudan...will not have an Olympic committee for years, I mean really.) also East Timor etc.

Mo is AWESOME.

2:20 pm

The picture of him doing Bolt's arrow and Bolt doing the Mobot has gone viral over here

thats awesome. I Admit that I dislike Usain Bolt So much. He beat my hip surgery buddy Tyson Gay.

2:21 pm

We are now doing a summary of all the non GB moments, fantastic :)

I am trying to be gracious, because Bolt is incredible, but...I'm not good at it.

2:22 pm

He broke a world record yesterday but had the presence of mind to make us love him even more by doing the mobot as he crossed the line, Britain has Bolt at their hearts

Tyson Lives here in Clermont, he trains at the same gym I do, and we had the hip surgeries within months of each other. THe Olympics were so badly timed, as he is not really recovered 100% but Bolt is I think better than him.

So You know, I really had some attachment to that race.

But Tyson lost gracefully, and he will be more recovered soon.

2:24 pm

by all- fireworks and have to run. :-)

2:24 pm

He'll be back and after what he had been through just making the Olympics was his Gold

WHOOO HOOOO CONRATS TO WOLVIE!

2:25 pm

congrats wolvie

2:26 pm

On Phelps now :)

He is very disappointed, but I think frankly that he did extremely well, and he really has to look at where he is. Nect year for the Worlds he will be in much better shape.

I am watching greco-roman wrestling, and I dont understand the rules...or anything.

2:27 pm

it's such a difficult one, they have achieved so much more than the rest of us could dream of but not what they dreamed of

2:28 pm

Have you seen the dutch guy on the high bar? it was the most breathtaking piece of gymnastics I have ever seen. He landed and the whole place jumped to their feet to acknowledge him

2:29 pm

Now we are on to David Rudisha

I missed the high bar! But I didn't miss David Rudisha!!! He was wonderful.

2:39 pm

The guests in the studio are Ian Thorpe and Michael Johnson not bad ;)

2:39 pm

This is the best I can find of the highbar http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jm_mQXr 6JL0

2:44 pm

I quote "Korea had a seriously good games especially when it had a weapon in their hand"

Hello MollyL! How are you doing? Welcom to the puzzle.

No it is not french, i think french cops probably eat baguettes.

Can someone explain why it seems to be universally OK to pat men on the rear in sports, but they dont really do that with women in sports...

Ok, i suppose not...

6:37 pm

Watch beach volleyball ... the players do a lot of patting

true true...I forgot about beach volley. Hi BR how are you?

Congratulations periwinkle on your fireworks!Way to go

Congrats Peri! I have 34 left. I took a bath, and got ready for tomorrows early/late day! now to focus a bit here.

feels like she may be alone in chat...

7:23 pm

hi red

hi lbd.. how are you?

7:25 pm

a bit tired, early morning, long day...have another early morning tomorrow. how are you?

I am well, work continues to feel like a pressure cooker.

7:26 pm

is it the job or the place or other things?

Well the job is tough and the place does not help. there is a lot of strangeness going on. None of it caused by me, or the hospital, but...some things we still have to look into.

7:28 pm

that sounds curious. hope things resolve in the positive for you.

I am a bit exhausted from it all, but eventually things will settle down. i do seem to move from crisis to crisis...

I think in a year or two I will get used to the crises..

7:29 pm

gets pickles and peaches ready for red's work

LOL, I get the pickels, but not the peaches> Hi Ru!

How is Ruru and California?

7:31 pm

7:32 pm

I took some clients to one of my wineries.. did some vineyard tours.. and tasted future wines and old library wines.. and then I took every one to lunch at this great, great restaurant in healdsburg and everyone was fun and funny and we laughed all day

7:33 pm

good evening all - had a wonderful day/weekend at a music gathering - perfect weather

7:33 pm

hi jmc. well, yes you can use a pressure cooker to make pickels.

7:33 pm

sounds nice

7:33 pm

hi minver

Oh wow, fun days!

I went to the gym and the grocery. I also had a milk adventure, not that fun.

7:34 pm

i went to meeting where i found out a client felt guilty for having stiffed me for 4 years and wrote a check and acted like i should thank him

Can i get a clue for the Ad 7??

7:34 pm

hi wv, sounds like a perfect weekend

7:34 pm

pffffttt to that client, jmc

7:34 pm

7:34 pm

i will cash the check

7:34 pm

i like ru's clients better

ahh thanks Ru. well jmc its nice that you got paid, but yeah, thank yoU? I think not.

THe closing ceremony is odd.

7:45 pm

7:56 pm

Congratulations redturtlehead on fireworks! Way to go!

7:58 pm

congrats red

8:09 pm

hi folks (reading back - thank him? did he add interest? did the check hit the floor and bounce like a spaldeen?)

8:09 pm

(a Spalding for the purists)

8:10 pm

pensie pinkies ran a close second :)

8:11 pm

hi welki! yeah, i was thinking if he added 4 years of interest that would be worth a gracious thanks.

8:12 pm

whooo hoooo red! (sorry a bit slow on the uptake tonight)

8:12 pm

a thank you, when he could have, but by the good grace of our forgiving friend, been biding his time answering a civil complaint

8:13 pm

(or had a collection agency on his recalcitrant behind)

8:14 pm

so dawg, are you making arrangements to hoof it on over to missoula for the get-together?

8:15 pm

uhm - i'm running an average of three posts to one - afraid i'll make the 'daily chat hog' roster :)

8:15 pm

thinks welki should ho4 it on over to the PB

8:15 pm

*tosses caution to the wind and makes it four to one*

8:16 pm

sorry, welki, was distracted eating sorbet

8:16 pm

no, can't make it down to missoula for the meet. have to work.

8:19 pm

i'd love to meet up with UU and Harp and Jilly, feel like i know them all ready. face to face meets are so much fun.

8:19 pm

me too - but the timing of the trip to b.c. just doesn't work.

8:20 pm

one of these days, you'll get that passport and come north - or i'll find myself driving south towards your neck of the woods

8:21 pm

definitely need to get that passport. have lots of friends across the border! and i love the peace park and lethbridge.

8:21 pm

you should come south. . . you know me and the candadian border

8:22 pm

lethbridge is only three hours away, i'd be there in THREE HOURS!

8:22 pm

well i didn't know he had stolen the work. . .i was left with the impression that it was uncompleted

8:22 pm

** finito ** last word TO 7/36 TO 4/5 + vowel + past tense

8:23 pm

i have no excuse, jmc. i have the time. i have access to the flights. i'm just a wuss.

8:23 pm

ty wv

8:23 pm

wtg wv :)

8:24 pm

whoo hooo wv!

8:26 pm

it's guilt. the kids: you went to DC and didn't see US? the other half: you went to DC and didn't invite ME? me: i went to DC by myself

8:26 pm

crosy is back:)..for last 35..i hope

8:27 pm

hey crossmeister

8:27 pm

howdy welki..lol@crossmiester :)

8:30 pm

chris says that you had spaldings in canada, but not pensie pinkies - he grew up near trenton/cornwall/finch

8:31 pm

hope springs was ok,i give it a 5.5 on the guy scale and the mrs gives it a 8.5 on the gal scale.suitable for married only with at least 15-20 years under their belt\

8:32 pm

Hope Springs looks like a rehashed something's gotta give

8:32 pm

only spalding i know is the golf equipment company and i have no idea what pensie pinkies are

8:32 pm

'hope springs' sounds incomplete - is that the punchline? that 'eternal' is missing?

8:32 pm

not worth a repeat viewing sadly

8:33 pm

belated whooo hooooo WV!!

8:34 pm

crossy, they (both spaldings (spaldeens) and pensie pinkies) were pink bouncing balls

8:35 pm

ahh..ok...

8:36 pm

ohhh - i get why you might not know - he lived on (mostly) u.s. military bases -raf brat

8:36 pm

pink bouncy balls standard millitray issue?

8:36 pm

:)

8:37 pm

i had to look up pensie pinkies...yup i remember them, didn't know they had a special name.

8:37 pm

for those under 13, i'd say yes - after that age, they're not so bouncy anymore

8:37 pm

total mystery to me what you are talking about..sorry

8:38 pm

I've seen plenty of bouncy ones on 30 year olds.. but then we may not be talking about the same thing

8:38 pm

:D

8:38 pm

definitely no talking about the same thing, ru

8:38 pm

anyways..see if i can find a few of these 35 words i am missing...

8:41 pm

i'm fading quickly here. think i'll pack it in for the night. see you all tomorrow.

8:59 pm

Th 4/5 one day Ru4/5y di4/6 after getting hit by a drunk driver.As he passed away,I shook my fi4/7 at God and yelled at him for taking my dog away from me. I was st 4/5ned how he was taken away from me in just a split second. I experienced terrible do6/24 when he passed away. I felt so alo4/4 and forlo4/4 when he was gone. I did not take his death well.For many months I ho4/8ed it on over to the bar to ho 5/12 several beers. I also su 4/6 the drunk driver, but that did not bring back my dog. After he passed away, my mom told me to have fa5/18 in that I'd get another dog just as unique as Ru4/5y.I do have another dog now named Ru4/6, but she's nothing like my other dog. Husband is being a ro 4/4 pain in the butt and wants to to ou4/5 me off the laptop. He wants a tu4/5 on the computer. I hope that you've found some more words that are hi 6/27 in the grid. I am going to go watch the movie "The Li4/4 King" th4/5 I will be back to finish the puzzle & to help out with clues. Be back later

8:59 pm

8:59 pm

acck! only half of it posted!! sorry everyone;(

9:00 pm

We'll be there on Friday -- since Sue is coming solo, I think I am the only person who is wheat-averse, yes? Was thinking I could just bring a few small items with me instead of worrying about baking wheat-free there. And then I can help with whatever we make for the others. :-)

9:00 pm

It's better than I had, cross, thanks!

9:01 pm

sorry,lost 50% of the story:(((

9:02 pm

9:05 pm

saanichcat can't make it any more but Hego will be in town early and UUsue will arrive later on Friday. I have not checked email today to see if Jill has committed to anything more definate than she will be here.

9:05 pm
