it's a celtic language but we have some latin words in Welsh - the Romans brought them when they came 2000 years ago

3:30 am

I didn't know that. Is it related to Erse?

3:30 am

pont - bridge, ffenestr - window

3:30 am

3:31 am

*Manx

3:31 am

Not that anybody speaks Cornish or Manx any more

3:31 am

3:32 am

3:32 am

3:32 am

3:32 am

3:32 am

Breton and 'Brythonic' - the language which was once spoken all over Britain and which we now call Welsh, were once the same language

3:32 am

Manx - My husband is of Manx descent - waaay back

Hello Glant & Ruby

3:41 am

Ah. I watch BBC iPlayer, but I think it's restriced to the UK. I also watch LoveFilm and I think that's worldwide

yep Melon

4:05 am

that was a 3-fer!

4:05 am

Ruby, your pup is adorable! do you have to blow dry her? 0:

4:07 am

for the moment she is covered with mud as is Ruffino from the constant rain. If it ever gets sunny, I'll comb her out and she'll be OK

wrong emoticon, meant (;

4:08 am

Hows hubby coping with all the mud?

4:08 am

she has a big personality for such a Young dog, not afraid of anything and is extremely affectionate and almost housebroken

4:08 am

she looks lovely

4:09 am

he's happy with th dog but is no help whatsoever and is always ready to be angry with me

4:09 am

all I do is wash towels and clean floors and outside steps

4:10 am

happily, the housekeeper is coming toorrow, even though it's a Holiday in France

4:11 am

I am worn out already; I'm too old to be a new mother!

6:00 am

Which is why I'm an Irish Shiksa Annie : )

6:00 am

6:13 am

except for the mud and the continuing cold ny rai, she is a wonderful pup.

6:14 am

ruby, very happy for you. Burt must be delighted.

6:14 am

She is exceptionally cute, feisty and smart and she and Rufie take turns chasing each other. The mud, however, is driving me insane

6:15 am

He likes the ew puppy but is mostly uninvolved and doesn't help me t al

6:15 am

I feel bad, you must be working very hard to keep up with the mud. Pray for sun.

6:15 am

he would probably have been better off on Prozac *a(and there'd be ess mud).

6:16 am

all I do is wash the outside steps and endless towels

6:16 am

mmm...coffee

6:16 am

but I love this pup already

6:16 am

who you putting on prozac? Burt or Raffie. Hang in there.

6:17 am

we just had "Easter lamb" at the local Italian and it wa the best thig we've had there

6:17 am

Hi ruby...

6:17 am

I love lamb

6:17 am

BURT! Raffie is perfect

6:17 am

sorry to hear youre not getting any help

6:18 am

6:18 am

my mouth is watering

6:18 am

sounds yummy

6:18 am

more tasty than halaal

6:18 am

and they served it with flageolets

6:19 am

mine is good, too, ut thi was etter

6:19 am

Lets see, no new pup & clean towels or new pup & washing lots of towels...I know you would choose washing muddy towels every time, Ruby :-)

6:19 am

you betcha zoozz and she is adorable and v ery licky

6:20 am

Maybe I'm being dumb here, but wouldn't it help if you washed their paws off when they came inside?

6:20 am

OMG, I think the sun just came out

6:20 am

woohoo ruby :)

6:21 am

Molly, they are in and out all day because that's the o nly way I can be sure that Raffie won't "go" in the house

6:21 am

I would have to spend my whole day by the door

6:21 am

hope it stays long enough to dry things out a bit

6:21 am

but I think that all the rain will make the spring flowers glorious this year

6:22 am

husband doesn't wipe his feet, either....

6:22 am

Ruby, cold but beautiful sunshine here..not had that for ages..hope it comes your way soon.

6:23 am

6:43 am

morning, all! and a Happy Easter to those who celebrate it. :)

6:43 am

Hello, Rbud..you too :-)

6:49 am

*Hands Rbud a chocolate bunny*

lots of questionable words here

6:50 am

oooh, yummy!! ty! was just bemoaning to myself that I have no chocolate for myself today - waiting for the after Easter sales, haha!!

6:52 am

still working my way through to nbt - anyone have a hint for the lone E in the 4th column?

6:52 am

Every kid (and grown up kid) should have a chocolate bunny for Easter. I don't care what those Save The Bunny commercials say. : P

6:53 am

Plural of the letter before T.

6:54 am

well, how about that. would never have tried it without 3 S's! ty.

6:56 am

This my be the first year I don't have at least a bit of Easter stuff for our kids - but then they're 21 and 25. Our son's not much on sweets, and our daughter sure doesn't need any, she gets them daily herself! :\

6:57 am

I, on the other hand, love chocolate and deserve plenty! :D

6:58 am

*rains down chocolate Easter bunnies on rbud*

7:01 am

ty, ty!! :D

7:01 am

my pleasure

7:03 am

My kids get Easter treats no matter what age they are. When they show up for Easter, that is.

7:06 am

well, both of ours live here, kind of tired of them. oops! did I say that out loud, lol!!??

7:07 am

for example, our son has been sneakily moving a buddy in over the last couple of days, thinking we'd either not notice or not mind. wrong.

7:08 am

Oh no, two adult kids living at home is enough.

7:08 am

tired of being the home for wayward homeless folks, which we are famous for being here.

7:08 am

rbud, can you tell your son that you will not allow his friend to move in?

7:09 am

Or that he's welcome, as long as he pays rent.

7:09 am

Did so. "but he's got nowhere to go, it'll just be a few days..." - plus the buddy has a HUGE TV, very attractive to our son, lol

7:10 am

Hmm, he has a huge TV, but nowhere to go. I sense a lack of correct priorities.

7:10 am

Yes, I agree. I believe he's here because he could no longer pay rent out at the motel where he was living, so not much hope of that.

7:10 am

if the TV stays the buddy stays.

7:11 am

Does the buddy have a job?

7:11 am

don't think so, though he has been known to hold down a job for over a year recently, unlike our son. :P

7:12 am

Buddy 1 and Buddy 2 need to get jobs and an apartment to share.

7:12 am

We have Hubby's old shop outside in the yard, that's where the sneaky moving in was going on, not in our house, at least, whew.

7:13 am

our son commandeered that space long ago, and with spring finally coming, it's looking habitable again.

7:13 am

rbud, No one should be sneaking onto your property. I hope you dont mind me being forward.

7:13 am

without your permission, that is.

7:14 am

Well, if he had permission, it wouldn't be sneaking. : D

7:14 am

yes, quite true, Molly

7:14 am

Oh, I totally agree, but just try to tell son that, he's a bullheaded PITA.

7:15 am

I don't much care for the buddy, he's kind of a local moocher. Has been thrown out of various living arrangements for years.

7:16 am

rbud, then I would not allow him to live in my house or shop, it's looking for a problem

7:17 am

There are a lot of young people today who seem to have absolutely no motivation to be self supporting. It's sad.

7:17 am

the really sad part is that the old shop was supposed to be mine, sigh - to set up my woodworking and refinishing stuff. But son "failed to launch" when given a car and marching orders. Still trying to figure out how to get him out of the nest.

7:18 am

thing is, Hubby needs all the help he can get, and son is good with that.

7:18 am

Oh hell no Rbud. He gets a room in the house if you can't get him launched, but you should not have to give up "your space".

7:19 am

and at least the buddy is polite and not a thief, like several of son's other buddies (now in jail, thank goodness)

7:19 am

rbud, When are 5 were growing up, we always looked at their friends for input. If their friends were doing drugs, odds are they were too. If their friends were into sports, again...You get the idea. Tough love. Do it now or you won't want him around in your life later.

7:19 am

Sounds like drugs

7:20 am

I hear you, gramma, and believe me, it's a problem we go around about constantly.

7:20 am

I know it's hard but you have to let him help himself

7:21 am

at the moment, we're just glad the nightly noise goes on out there and not in the house, which is why we let him commandeer the building in the first place, otherwise his friends were up and down the stairs half the night.

7:22 am

rbud, you shouldn't have to put up with this. How old is your son?

7:23 am

Here's a link for you. Please watch the video "Why we wait" http://www.interventionservicesinc.com\n/

7:23 am

band practice, loud music, etc. Son has a nice hardworking girlfriend now, she has plans to get him out of here, I like her, lol

7:23 am

He needs plans. He shouldn't just follow her.

7:24 am

he's 21, finally can stop worrying about his underage sneaky drinking, and it's nearly stopped now since it's no longer a challenge, haha!

7:24 am

bbl

7:26 am

I just get tired of being the only one expected to deal with stuff to do with the kids, Hubby has distanced himself from most discipline years ago, after child services showed up to inform him he couldn't spank our son unless he wanted to be charged with domestic abuse. Thus began the trouble, a long sad story.

7:31 am

french high school

7:32 am

Good day to all.

7:33 am

ty, hursh, googled and got it (and pl)

7:33 am

7:58 am

I don't have any rude words.

7:58 am

pi 4/5 Worzel?

7:59 am

yes mom - promise i shan't giggle (much!!)

7:59 am

:-) that was my first word

7:59 am

That's not rude, silly worzel

8:00 am

it's considered rude in the UK lol

8:00 am

What does it mean there? Here it means to annoy/anger or to pee.

8:01 am

Don't let Mom fool you, she's a feisty one. : D

8:01 am

yes, to urinate, but it's considered one of the ruder curse words over here. You Americans have a much better attitude towards certain words in my opinion. Always loved the USA xxx

ugh ..ours are done.. not good here

11:21 am

here either - but ours are done, too - gotta take care of Uncle :)

11:21 am

I just don't like the way the government spends money

11:22 am

I wish my tax dollars paid for domestic issues

11:22 am

i can't recall a time when anyone really approved of the way a government handled money

11:23 am

They do. They pay for all that medical care and assistance for illegal immigrants.

11:23 am

i agree with you on the domestic issues, ru - feed our children first

11:24 am

It'

11:24 am

before committing money overseas

11:24 am

criminal to me welki

11:24 am

I volunteered at a food line last year and I couldn't believe what I saw

11:25 am

many of the people i deal with are indigent - not only homeless, but the working poor who are struggling to feed and clothe their children (and themselves) - it's an eye opener, for sure

11:26 am

and then we spend billions giving free fighter jets to Syria

11:26 am

or things like that

11:26 am

i keep a supply of granola bars, cans of soup and transit tickets in my desk

11:27 am

that's nice welks

11:27 am

I may be a volunteer this year again too.. i

11:27 am

no, not really - i think it's an obligation. by no means would anyone consider me 'nice' - at work or here, i suppose :)

11:27 am

will try.. those slots fill up fast

11:28 am

it could be any one of us - things can go south in a blink of an eye

11:28 am

yep that's true

11:29 am

ru - wouldn't that soup kitchen need volunteers all year long, not just at holiday time (when it's difficult to find a work slot)?

11:30 am

yeah..it's just during the holidays I have some time off to do it

11:31 am

ohh, i see - well, get your name in there as soon as you can

11:31 am

I'm not used to it being gloomy and chilly on Easter.

1:15 pm

Me either..although the sun is trying to peek out now.

1:16 pm

Nothing is peeking through here. It's supposed to be rainy and chilly today and tomorrow. Although I wasn't counting on great weather with Easter being so early this year.

1:16 pm

Saw so many freezing little girls today...all dressed up in the Easter outfits.

1:17 pm

Yesterday was quite lovely here...today, not so much.

1:18 pm

1:46 pm

plural of the di4/5

1:47 pm

Bless you Bzz. If it had been....

1:48 pm

Was that the correct one?

1:49 pm

Google usually doesn't do an Easter theme, no big shocker

1:50 pm

WTG sally :)

1:57 pm

Well, thank goodness someone is not shocked.

1:58 pm

Surprised maybe a little, shocked, not at all, upset, certainly not :)

2:01 pm

2:04 pm

Scoots up chair to hear Ru's shockability.....

2:07 pm

6 weeks.. and bingo.. no abortions

2:07 pm

Steer well clear of Holy Catholic Ireland, if that shocks you RuRu!

2:08 pm

oh.. yeah.. that's for sure soodle.. I'll leave my Political Correctness home if I ever visit Ireland

2:09 pm

some women don't even know if they're pregnant at 6 weeks do they? I"m not sure

2:10 pm

In November 2012, an Indian lady, 17 weeks pregnant, died in Galway, because the abortion she needed was refused. Savita Halappanavar. Google it. Just too sad.

2:10 pm

<---staying out of this one :)

2:12 pm

2:15 pm

Ireland is on my list.. but after New Zealand and Italy

2:30 pm

Lol!! Happy Spring Holiday Molls.

2:31 pm

Ru, Crossy & his Mrs are coming to Ireland!!! I cannot wait.

2:31 pm

Well, I don't expect Google to recognize Ostara (Pagan Spring holiday) but more than a few people were unhappy with them ignoring Easter.

2:34 pm

Happy Day to everyone! What a grid...what a grid :) silly words all over the place!

2:36 pm

2:48 pm

i do like a freshly squeezed juice and i must admit i do put broccoli in it but other fruit and veg too

2:48 pm

It was the 2013 version of the 'fatted calf' Lilliann. Son of Soodle is home.....

2:50 pm

*gladly takes Lillian's slice of pie.. I love banana cream pie

2:51 pm

Well, for your piece, I'll not put bananas under the vanilla cream. Then it will be just right and ruru can have doubles. Pas des problems.

2:52 pm

*takes Lillian's Shrimp cocktail too *

2:52 pm

2:53 pm

you are not taking my shrimp cocktail away ru.they'll be a fight if you do. by all means you can have my banana cream pie

2:53 pm

I like to cook one day so we at least get a lunch out of the evening meal.

2:53 pm

I'm such an Irish Mammy. No meat on Good Friday. I rustled up a very tasty prawn, salmon, tagliatelle & pernod concoction the other day. I made it up as I went along, and I'm annoyed now that I didn't write it down.

2:53 pm

Oh, well yu will be a bigger guy with double shrimp cocktails.

2:54 pm

You will again be inspired Soodle. Just the right ingredients will come together and voila.

2:55 pm

Cream & fresh dill were a part of it.....

2:55 pm

i like that about cooking.just throw anything in and see what comes out.i quite often experiment

2:57 pm

Like Julia Child thought, once you know the basics, the changes are where each person shows her genius.

2:57 pm

Babblers howl laughing when they hear about Soodle special dinners. Invariably, there are 3 or 4 types of potatoes.

2:58 pm

bbiab.i need to google the hotel they are staying at and see if i can get a phone number

2:58 pm

And what is wrong with many types of potatoes? We enjoy using potato flour for cakes because stidmama can eat those gluten-free types.

2:58 pm

Falling into sterotype.......

3:00 pm

I don't cook with recipes either

3:00 pm

Good idea lilliann. Peace of mind.

3:00 pm

Mashed potato, roast potato, croquettes

3:01 pm

Croquettes makes me think of DANCING lizards

3:02 pm

Sort of the gecko on steroids.

3:02 pm

<--silly radio city music hall pubn

3:02 pm

3:23 pm

My friends family celebrates both Jewish and Christian holidays. I always feel like they get twice the fun. : D

3:24 pm

We have such a mixed up family religious/cultural so it's hard to pin it down here

3:25 pm

I work with someone who is a Jehovah Witness. They celebrate no holidays. No fun. : (

3:25 pm

bichon can you clue it please?

3:26 pm

In my personal view, religious holidays aren't always about having fun. [grump here]. It's devotion to a belief.

3:26 pm

MLF, it has an adverbial ending

3:26 pm

sorry to say but those jehovah witness people are annoying

3:27 pm

got it lol

3:28 pm

bichon for kids its mostly fun for adults it is that way or no fun at all

3:28 pm

bichon i never answer my front door either

3:28 pm

We get other annoying people. They want me to sign petitions or something like that. Or sign up for something odious

3:28 pm

I understand that religious holidays are about faith, but to me, they are also about family gatherings and celebration.

3:29 pm

the thing is, easter is like christmas for alot of people.it isn't about the religion but the presents and eggs.it's always been like that for my family ever since i was little as we aren't a religious family

3:29 pm

i have ha 4/5 he 4/6 and he 5/14 what am i missing?

3:29 pm

To me, a Jew, Easter is the day Christ has risen from the dead. It is a joyous happening, but the other trappings....

3:30 pm

I thought you said you didn't celebrate Easter, L.

3:30 pm

i have no problems with other people and their different faiths, i just don't want it pushed onto me and the jehovahs try to do that

3:31 pm

lilian our family isnt very religious either i am catholic but not CATHOLIC. I used ot love going to church on holidays especially Christmas

3:31 pm

'Bad'

3:57 pm

:)

3:57 pm

i don't have netflix but have been thinking about getting it soodle

3:57 pm

My kids forced me to watch Breaking Bad. Literally, as in my oldest bought me the first three seasons for Christmas. I have mixed feelings about the quality of the show.

3:57 pm

MLF ... add a vowel to end of previous word.

3:57 pm

i think you can try it for free lillian

3:58 pm

Its €7 a month here. Its like having a whole video store on your computer.

4:00 pm

Am I the only one who didn't care for "Breaking Bad?" What's wrong with me?

4:00 pm

Nope, they don't live with me. They bought it so I would watch it. They are both big fans of the show.

4:00 pm

More like cheddar, Pen...

4:01 pm

nearly all of the food stuff that mice like pen

4:01 pm

and hi pen :)

4:01 pm

Bich, I find it very dark and depressing. And I can't stand Bryan Cranston. But I was compelled to watch so I could discuss it with my kids.

4:01 pm

4:03 pm

We've been enjoying "Bates Motel"

4:03 pm

the di4 before it and to consume bichon

4:03 pm

And critics salivate over it.

4:03 pm

i tried to watch that movie the black swan or black swan and i couldnt handle it

4:04 pm

ty lilli

4:04 pm

I think, not unlike Downton Abbey, if you have a series on demand, you get instant gratification. (At least I do) !!!

4:04 pm

Black Swan was scary. I love watching ballet

4:04 pm

I won't be watcing The Black Swan. From what I've heard, that is one twisted movie.

4:04 pm

bichon it was so creepy i didnt watch the whole thing only parts of it

4:05 pm

mlf, use the sometimes vowel

4:05 pm

I agree, it was creepy. I certainly wouldn't want to have my child go into ballet

4:05 pm

duhh ty lillian

4:06 pm

I'm toying with the idea of watching House of Cards, but I don't particularly need to get obsessed with another TV show.

4:16 pm

mlf, it is on here all here alot.the japanese immigrant to the U.S and Canada

4:17 pm

My daughter asked me the other day what my fave film was. No question. Its gotta be Mary Poppins. Notwithstanding Dick Van Dyke's appalling attempt at an english accent. The cartoon scene is magical

4:17 pm

jmc hmm that doesnt sound too good

4:17 pm

maybe in person it is more engaging with people next to you oooing and ahing but not as a movie at all

4:17 pm

4:26 pm

jmc wasnt he in that movie with billy crystal?

4:27 pm

i keep turning it on right after they're put in the pen, lil - getting old

4:27 pm

Andre the giant was Fezzig (Fessig?)

4:27 pm

yet strangely compelling *LOL*

4:27 pm

Princess Bride? Is that the one with Peter Falk?

4:27 pm

did you know that the graffitti artist that designed the obama logo got his big start with graffitti that said "andre the giant has a posse"

4:27 pm

yes, Princess Bride has Peter Falk as the grandfather

4:28 pm

<---not allowed to talk about princesses

4:28 pm

for anyone who loves the movie, and has not read the book, I strongly recommend the book

4:28 pm

me too welki.they've moved the camera so we can't see so much of the enclosure, si i think they are being born or helped in the cornewrs and then put in the middle pen after

4:28 pm

Ah yes. A delightful , feelgood movie.

4:28 pm

the movie is the plot of the book, but there is more to the book that is highly entertaining

4:29 pm

imust be weird as i cant stand the Princesss Bride

4:29 pm

probably so folks (children) can't see if something goes wrong, lil - not a bad thing

4:29 pm

there is one in every crowd ;-)

4:30 pm

Way -hay. I feel a story coming on. (Composes self). Why are you not allowed to talk about princesses, Ru?

4:30 pm

*hates to say it looked boring to me too

4:30 pm

i was not aware there was a book but i should have guessed i will have to read it. . .

4:30 pm

<-- hasn't seen it (Princess Bride)

4:31 pm

anything but boring... lots of fun actually

4:31 pm

but I had to get talked into watching it, I admit

4:32 pm

i am confused. . .what is boring? the princess bride or the lamb cam?

4:32 pm

jmc, written by William Goldman, who did many screenplays (Butch Cassidy, Misery, etc). Some were his original work, some were adapted. He writes for movies well.

4:32 pm

ohhhh, I assumed ru meant The Princess Bride looked boring

4:32 pm

princess bride looked really boring to me

4:33 pm

oh welki you would love the princess bride. . . i used to show it to my 20 something guys (including former marines) and they were always doubtful but always ended up enjoying it

4:33 pm

Yes yes yes. But WHY is Ruru banned from talking about princesses?

4:33 pm

And Soodle. I got spanked by Mab and TO for talking about princesses.. so I don't talk about them any longer ;D

4:33 pm

i understand ru but i think you would actually enjoy it

4:33 pm

okay, next time ru and i go out for a matinee, we'll watch it - ok, ru?

4:34 pm

no thanks

4:34 pm

it may have been the ethnic spin you put on it ru. . . maybe not. . . just saying. . . .

4:34 pm

can i get a clue for ps 8/45 please?

4:34 pm

sheesh, all you had to do is say 'yes,' ru - not like we're planning a sunday matinee any time soon

4:35 pm

Oh, in an ideal world, everybody who is on this evening's chog would all meet up for a 'full & frank' exchange of views. Preferably here !! I'll go to bed dreaming of such an encounter !

4:39 pm

4:41 pm

full and frank discussion ru, as in you say whatever is on your mind

4:41 pm

i think some of us do that here already soodle which is why we get into trouble :)

4:41 pm

Oh with the right people, it would be very interesting.

there are times on here i don't chat because i can't think of the words.i can see them in my head or a picture of the meaning but i can't remember the word. i drive hubby and the bairn mad as it 'give us a clue'. i remember what you do because you are a nurse and that's what i wanted to be and you have a dog that was similar to ours

They are indeed ..

6:46 pm

Heyas Tor : D

6:47 pm

Heyas Molly ..

6:47 pm

Are you Eastering today or not.

6:48 pm

Hello all...WooT WooT WooT dc...and thanks for the begining clue for me!

6:49 pm

Not as such, but I do always make a feast ..

6:49 pm

Hi Jill. How was your Easter cottage cheese : P

6:50 pm

Thumbs up to a feast Tor, for any occasion. What did you make?

6:50 pm

Actually my dear molly, hate to disappoint, but I feasted today!

6:50 pm

Oh good for you Jill! Not disappointed at all.

6:51 pm

Okay, I know Jedi is not a word...but I had to try it..LOL

6:51 pm

Ham, smashed potatoes, sweet potatoes, etc. etc.

6:52 pm

We need to come up with a name for that. You know it's not a word, but you try it anyway.

6:52 pm

I agree....will think on that for awhile..

6:53 pm

My first thought is attemptation.

6:54 pm

But that is just the desire to try a word that you know is not accepted.

6:56 pm

LOL...or fu-tile...

6:58 pm

There is actually a real word that fits...wastry

7:00 pm

Good one Molly....and, did you have a nice Easter btw?

7:08 pm

<---nbt/nbs

7:10 pm

hi all!

7:10 pm

Hello uusue...Happy Easter to you and Frank!

7:10 pm

thanks, Jill! Same to you!!

7:10 pm

good evening all - hello sue and jilly

7:10 pm

hi wv!

7:11 pm

Hi Teach and Happy Easter to you!

7:11 pm

BTW, it's my dad's 92nd birthday today; I called him and wished him a happy birthday - he is doing fine!

7:11 pm

happy birthday - sues dad

7:53 pm

Hello Everyone. Happy Easter to all. :-)

7:54 pm

Glad to hear he's doing well, Sue. Happy Birthday to him too!

7:55 pm

Oh. I see there's been a silence in the chog for a while....

8:00 pm

we're taking a moment of silence

8:01 pm

Well, ruru; I've never known to be silent for too long....

8:02 pm

but I *am* the quiet one in my family; so I can be quiet for a minute or 2

8:03 pm

we need to think about all those eggs, chocolate eggs, peeps, and hams that were consumed savagely today

8:04 pm

we didn't have any of that other than deviled eggs (which are a family tradition for every holiday or family gathering)

8:04 pm

we had roasted leg of lamb instead.

8:05 pm

*alternate silence for lambs*

8:06 pm

So what did you have? All of the above?

8:06 pm

err belos I mean?

8:06 pm

below

8:07 pm

none of the below.. I'm having pork chops :D

8:08 pm

<---Loves deviled eggs : D

8:08 pm

that sounds good. Our D-I-L doesn't eat pork; now (today, after it's served) she tells us she doesn't eat lamb either. My son told her that she'd had it before here; her response was that she "thought it was beef" in the past..

8:10 pm

DH's Aunt used to make them for all the holidays; and that grew to the point that we had them for birthdays, holidays, and any Sunday dinner (or any day of the week) that we ate together

8:10 pm

I'm sorry but that is rude. If you are going to be a guest in someone's house for dinner, you should tell them of any dietary restrictions.

8:13 pm

sometimes the hosts don't remember and do what they want any way

8:14 pm

her diet seems to change every month or so, Molly. In the past year she's been vegetarian, vegan, glutin free, and now on a "Paleo diet (meats, fruits and veggies, with little or no carbs/grains/pastas); so I thought I'd chosen a "friendly " diet menu for everyone

8:15 pm

Well in that case Nef, you should just serve what you want and give her a big ole plate of kale. : D

8:15 pm

I'm pretty sure she has some sort of eating disorder, but it isn't anorexia or bulemia. I don't think that most people can focus so much on foods and change their diets so radically

8:15 pm

lol.. she kind of sounds like a nutcase nef

8:16 pm

Some people are obsessed with food and dieting. She sounds like one of them.

8:16 pm

she is, ruru; she's bipolar + several other problems and was sexually abused as a child also

8:18 pm

well.. tell her Lamb is Beef in New Zealand

8:18 pm

she's just obsessed, Molly. At least the food issues *might* be a healthier outlet? (I don't know)

8:21 pm

That's why we have our grandson so much: I try to give his a more "normal" environment

8:22 pm

good call.. my grandmother did the same for me

8:22 pm

I have a friend who used to be obsessed with food. Talked constantly about what she ate, what she didn't eat. Weighed herself every day. Lost sleep over gaining a few pounds. It took a lot of therapy to get her over that. Thankfully, she eats like a normal person now.

8:23 pm

and did you turn out okay, ruru? Or maybe I shouldn't judge you by your personna here.... ;-)

8:23 pm

...don't get me started nef :D

8:23 pm

LOL!

8:25 pm

Molly, I do know that there is help for eating disorders. I had a young cousin who, when I was in Nursing School, lost so much weight that she was down to about 69 lbs in 10th grade. She's healthy now and normal sized.

8:26 pm

I think my mom was Bulimic

8:26 pm

Did your Mom or your Dad have mental problems, ruru?

8:26 pm

oh.. sure.. both..

8:27 pm

A lot of obsessive behavior, compulsive behavior and addiction problems have a root cause of low self worth. And many people don't get the correct treatment for that, mental health wise.

8:27 pm

my mom was completely nuts

8:27 pm

is nuts.. she's still alive .. at least as far as I know

8:28 pm

okay. You don't have to talk about it ru; I was just curious which one it was

8:29 pm

my dad was nuts too.. anger issues, borderline personality disorder, violent...

8:29 pm

isn't it amazing how kids survive in spite of crazy parents?

8:29 pm

Crappy way to grow up Ru. I'm glad you survived, then thrived.

8:29 pm

yes.. it certainly is.. kids are amazingly resilient

8:30 pm

very true.

8:31 pm

I've done okay in life.. it could have been better I suppose.. i'm sure a lot of my weird sick humor comes from growing up like that :D

8:31 pm

and really; it's a good thing kids are resilient too. We'd be in tough shape as a society if that wasn't true

8:31 pm

(blame the parents for sick humor...)

8:32 pm

LOL!

8:32 pm

Caroline Myss has an interesting theory she calls "woundology". Her belief is that some people choose to move beyond their wounds and others choose to carry them around for life.

8:32 pm

oh.. I've heard about that Molly.. I bet that is true. I have some wounds that won't heal.. I'm thinking of seeing someone soon

8:33 pm

Do they actually move beyond their wounds; or do they learn how to cope with it better than others?

8:33 pm

They may not have healed yet, but they will. And the fact that you are thinking about seeing someone is a good sign.

8:35 pm

I think some of my wounds have made me a stronger and kinder person though; not sure they've healed...

8:35 pm

you are a kind and thoughtful person nef.. amazingly so

8:35 pm

you're a caretaker type

8:35 pm

I heard a lecture once that compared emotional wounds to physical wounds. The guy giving the lecture told a story about a man who went to the doctor with a wound that would not heal. The doctor's first question was "How much do you pick at the scab?"

8:36 pm

maybe because I learned to do that, ru; because of some stuff in my past?

8:36 pm

could be.. could be your nature too

8:36 pm

LOL! Good question!

8:37 pm

what was the second question?

8:38 pm

Um...the second question wasn't exactly the point of the story.

8:41 pm

damn.. thought it was going to get better. :D

8:42 pm

My Aunt (the one who raised me) could say the meanest things to me. My hometown is a 6 1/2 hour drive from the Cities and there were many times that I cried the whole drive back here. That's just how she was to me. Another Aunt gave me the book "Irregular People" (listed in my profile) and that helped me deal with the other one and come to terms with her.

8:43 pm

And yet I was the one called home to care for her when she was dying....

8:44 pm

wow

8:44 pm

did she ever say why she was so mean to you?

8:45 pm

I think some people just have a mean nature.

8:45 pm

She didn't like me. (And I was also her god child). I was too slow; too quiet; too -whatever.

8:46 pm

ah.. I see.. I always wanted to ask my mom why she had kids when it is obvious to me that she hates them

8:46 pm

she liked my siblings more than me. I think it was just a personality thing; I don't know

8:46 pm

Nef, my Irish grandmother would say you have earned your place in Heaven five times over. : )

8:46 pm

how many did she have, ru?

8:47 pm

two

8:47 pm

She had kids ...because that's what people did in the 50's...

8:47 pm

I don't think women of our parents generation thought of having kids as a choice. It was expected of them.

8:47 pm

yeah.. that's what i just said too molly

8:47 pm

and my Irish Grandma used to say you'd be building your castle in Heaven too

8:48 pm

well, it's a good thing she only had 2 then!

8:48 pm

LOL.. yeah..

8:50 pm

god..it's pouring here

8:51 pm

I took a walk and got drenched

8:51 pm

Ahh, well; I think I've learned not to treat others the way I was treated

8:52 pm

do you need the rain there?

8:52 pm

help with DI 6/21 (second, last one please

8:53 pm

it's been kind of dry lately.. we've had nice clear weather.. so yes.. it is kind of needed

8:53 pm

And that is a good thing Nef. It all comes down to how you choose to live your life. You chose well, grasshopper. : )

8:53 pm

to say unkind things WV

8:53 pm

that's why I asked if wound heal, Molly. :-)

8:54 pm

it's a plural WV

8:54 pm

sorry, wv; I don't have either (but I'm working on it now!)

8:54 pm

thnx ruru

8:55 pm

And that is what made me think of the lecture Nef. Whether or not wounds heal depends on how much you pick at them. Or whether you choose to live in them, or move beyond them.

8:55 pm

yw

8:56 pm

I'm ready to move beyond them again..

8:57 pm

:-)

9:03 pm

time to make dinner.. nice chatting about something real for once

9:04 pm

bye for now, ruru. I still have 111 words left

9:04 pm

Enjoy your dinner. And I agree, the something real chats are always the best.

9:06 pm

I do too. But then; I do like to chat!

9:09 pm

There goes Molly - forcing her opinions on everyone again ;^)

9:11 pm

hi tor! How are you tonight?

9:13 pm

Impish as ever ..

9:14 pm

I know Tor, isn't it awful. The scathing emails will be flying.

9:14 pm

Hello all, torgone,nef, ruru, wv...back to find some more

9:14 pm

Hello all, torgone,nef, ruru, wv...back to find some more

9:14 pm

Sheesh...trick trigger finger tonight.

9:16 pm

hi Jilly

9:16 pm

Whew...thought I might be being shunned ;)

9:16 pm

And Happy Easter to you both, Tor and Jilly

9:18 pm

Thank you nef, and happy easater to you and DH also!

9:19 pm

thanks

9:31 pm

Lots of left and right turns in this grid...

9:31 pm

I swear there aren't any more words in this grid; but the word stats say I need to find 86 still!

9:32 pm

so I should try more right and left turns, Jilly?

9:32 pm

hi nef!

9:32 pm

and Jill!

9:33 pm

I have 69 left and have more or less given up...

9:33 pm

More left hand turns I think...that and remembering where there are same letters...

9:33 pm

hi sue! Happy Easter to you and Happy Birthday to your dad!

9:33 pm

Hello again uusue! I enjoyed Franks tour of your new home!

9:34 pm

thanks, Jill! It looks better than that already since we have a lot of the furniture unpacked and assembled

9:34 pm

thanks, nef! I am amazed at how well he continues to do.

9:34 pm

after his tough year last year; that is amazing

9:35 pm

yes, he's pretty much completely recovered. He's decided not to drive out to visit me, though; now he's talking about taking the train (!)

9:35 pm

that would be a better way for him to travel I'd think. :-)

9:35 pm

LOL...I did think Frank was a typical guy...not thinking perhaps YOU would want him to wait until more moved into...but it really doesn't matter to those of us whom have moved frequently...

9:36 pm

oh, I didn't mind, I just want to post an update some time soon :-)

9:37 pm

and nef, I am also just as glad my dad decided not to drive out here; it's a little too ambitious for him now, I think

9:38 pm

did Frank post pictures on FB?

9:38 pm

he posted a video tour of our new house, nef

9:40 pm

oh. :-( I can't see videos on my computer. I'll have to try something else

9:42 pm

I need to post a picture of my DH on my page. He made our dtr take a picture of him in his new t-shirt for his FB page.

9:42 pm

I would enjoy 'meeting' him nef!

9:42 pm

ah well, I told my dad I'd email him some photos of the house, so I'll put those on facebook as soon as I take them :-)

9:43 pm

His t-shirt has the Tardis and the Delauran from Back to the Future beginning to crash on it

9:43 pm

he is very sweet, Jill, I have actually met him

9:43 pm

he is very sweet (most of the time!) ;-)

9:43 pm

And I am sure he is thrilled with the return of Doctor Who?

9:44 pm

We've been Dr. Who fans for over 20 years I believe

9:45 pm

(our whole family are Dr. Who fans; our dtr. even dressed as the Tardis for Halloween)

9:47 pm

My oldest is a fan-atic as well.. I never quite got into it. Certainly don't need another addiction at this point, but my son keeps me updated

9:48 pm

I have fond memories of the Tom Baker era; the newer doctors don't quite have the same effect on me :-)

9:48 pm

There; I've posted it.

9:48 pm

*heading to look*

9:50 pm

Very handsome man with a nice smile!!

9:50 pm

yep, pretty cute shirt :-)

9:50 pm

Hello to my fellow babblers! How is everyone doing today?

9:51 pm

By the way, congratulations to all the finishers! Way to go!

9:51 pm

Hello minv..Happy Easter to you !

9:51 pm

hi min! I am ok, Frank is not doing so well but better now than earlier in the day

9:51 pm

Happy Easter everyone! Sorry to hear about Frank uusue2.

9:52 pm

Happy Easter to you too Min. Did you do anything fun?

9:52 pm

OH darn uusue...sorry to hear that; thought with the video he was fine...

9:52 pm

I think he should be better by tomorrow, min, if not I am taking him to the doctor

9:53 pm

ah, that was a few days ago, Jill. He's not in terrible shape, just having some annoying side effects from the chemo

9:54 pm

Dang, remind me how far into this is he?

9:55 pm

he started his eighth cycle last Wednesday; initial plan is 12 cycles, then another scan, then a break depending on how the scan looks

9:55 pm

Good, on the almost done side...

9:57 pm

yes, especially if the next scan looks clear

9:57 pm

MollyL, I went to Vermont for Easter. I went up Friday and came back today. Back to work tomorrow. Total bummer!

9:58 pm

Oh too bad Min. Here the schools are closed Easter Monday because so many people travel for Easter.

9:59 pm

Sorry, I wandered over to FB for a few minutes and got distracted there.

9:59 pm

P's Pummeled! 9 left

9:59 pm

I hope you had a lovely visit, Min

9:59 pm

I was surprised that the schools here operate full day on Good Friday...

10:00 pm

Go minv!!

10:00 pm

I did! Thank you Nef. I wish it could've been longer though

10:01 pm

GO, Min! You can do it!

10:02 pm

school breaks are never long enough; are they?

10:02 pm

10:02 pm

Congratulations Jillyjill on your fireworks! Hooray for you!

10:02 pm

YAY, Jilly!!!! WTG!!!

10:02 pm

I found out over my vacation that my school will be closing

10:02 pm

yay Jill!

10:03 pm

Oh, No, Min!

10:03 pm

The school will be re-opening next year under a new name

10:03 pm

Oh Jeeze Min, what does that mean for you job wise?

10:03 pm

Oh no minv...oh...reread..phew!!

10:03 pm

50 percent of the staff can stay and 50 percent have to go.

10:03 pm

It means that I will probably have to goto another building

10:04 pm

But you will have a job?

10:04 pm

as long as you still have a job, min!

10:04 pm

I'll still have a job thank goodness.I just don't know where.

10:05 pm

Could it mean a worse commute?

10:05 pm

Whew! That's good news.

10:06 pm

I hope not. Her commute is long enough as it is.

10:06 pm

how far do you travel now, Min?

10:06 pm

Well...my bedtime...niters all!

10:07 pm

I'll hold good thoughts that this turns into something good for you Min.

10:07 pm

Niters, Jilly. I'm guessing that you work tomorrow? Have a good one then

10:07 pm

Commute will still be same since I'll still be in the same school district.However,I might be in a place where I do not have my own classroom, which I do have now. That is what I will miss the most, having my own classroom.

10:08 pm

night, Jill!

10:08 pm

Goodbye Jillyjill! I will see you tomorrow in the log maybe.

10:08 pm

what do you teach, min?

10:09 pm

My work is 55 miles away from me so I travel a total of 110 miles a day. I'll still be doing the same commute next year.

10:09 pm

I teach ESL,so I take small groups of kids into my classroom

10:09 pm

OMG, Min! I couldn't do that!

10:10 pm

wow, that is a long commute, min! Do you drive, or can you take public transportation?

10:10 pm

In the other schools, the ESL teacher either pushes into the classrooms and she has to carry everything with her or they share a room with 3 or 4 other ESL and reading teachers.

10:11 pm

I could take the train, but that is inconvenient for me. I do carpool sometimes, however, I have to drive 25 minutes to meet the person I carpool with, but it does help out some.

10:14 pm

I would be falling asleep at the wheel probably both ways, Min. I loved/love working; but it is so exhausting that I've had trouble driving 20 minutes home.

10:14 pm

Speaking of work, I need to go to bed since I have to be up early in morning. I am going to beg for clues for my last 7.

10:15 pm

Do not want to give up with just 7 left so the clue begging will start.
