4:14 am

how was your long shift?

4:16 am

awww, poor sprite. i hope you are soon over this, sweetie. today was interesting....at one point we had 6 nurses, 6 bays, and 7 patients.

4:17 am

good morning my babble friends:)

4:17 am

new shoes were great....have very tired feet, but legs and back not too bad.

4:17 am

omg! How did you solve that? "Sorry m'am, we are full, you'll be operated on in the corridor... or you will have to share an OR."

4:18 am

and hello to you, too, crossy

4:18 am

howdy,granny

4:18 am

hiya crossy *hugs*

4:18 am

((sprite))

4:19 am

lol.....very quickly moved one onto 2nd stage recovery....fortunately the nurses there were very accommodating...in more ways than one.

4:21 am

crossy never had accomodating nurses.mine were like those soviet or german bloc 80s olymic athletes they used to send over all pumped full of steroids.."UNT! you vill haff your sponge baff mein patient!" you cannot run little man!"

4:22 am

*giggle* poor crossy. where was that, mate?

4:22 am

und now it is time to shave you.screaming will not help little one"

4:23 am

seems like every time i need to stay at one they just move the same nurse around lol

4:23 am

*wonders just which part of crossy's anatomy they were shaving*

4:23 am

i used to ask for one she did not use on her face that morning lol

4:24 am

hey, crossy, c'mon over here. you might get lucky and have me for your nurse. *grins evilly *

4:24 am

acck!! run!..

4:24 am

hehe

4:25 am

vegimite ivs!

4:25 am

* chases crossy with extra large enema tube* you can run, but you can't hide...

4:25 am

goof mornig

4:25 am

nah, crossy, vegemite enemas. lol

4:26 am

typo, but maybe it applied to crossy and rose!

4:26 am

goof morning to you too, ruby. {{hugs}}

4:26 am

crossy tries to pucker up tighter than a snare drum and run at the same time.....

4:26 am

rofl

4:26 am

rofl

4:27 am

it's raining again and on the verge of snowing -- very cold and horrible but at least they finally took away the old fridge -- they had to remove the doors and a gate and it took 4 guys

4:27 am

better watch it.our american friends will be stumbling to the computers shortly...

4:27 am

they won't "get" vegemite! hohah

4:28 am

I am freezing and wish I could just go back to bed but, no, must make lunch for husband

4:29 am

ruby, dear...make him a vegemite sandwich, then high-tail it back to bed....perhaps a LARGE cxampari chaser?

4:30 am

he's alreay had 2 camparis and is litting louring in his chair Mr. Charm

4:31 am

was +10c last night we were sweating bullets all night.we had to readjust for spring

4:31 am

give him anothery, give him anothery...then he won't care...

4:33 am

another warm one today at +6

4:33 am

ruby, how are ruffie and rafaella? are they still doing okay?

4:33 am

we had our first full rain yesterday since last november

4:33 am

here it's less than 40 but feels colder' I imagine it's snowing in the mountains

4:34 am

crossy, we haven't had any rain to speak of for about the same amount of time.

4:35 am

we still have snow on the mtn here,but that hard rain effectivly killed it for the skiers for this year

4:35 am

I think the pups love each other even though there's still a lot of rough play. He ever hurts her and she always comes back for more and they share food and toys. The only problem is her eye which looks like it's infected. Vet is coming tonigh to give Rafie a shot and to give me flea/tick meds for both of them as there's a lot of scratching going on

4:35 am

indeed granny,but for different reasons

4:35 am

ruby, do you have a stiff breeze blowing? that always makes it feel colder.

4:36 am

it is just terrible weather but the brave daffs are open anyway

4:36 am

ah,i cannot wait to see smething green and growing again

4:36 am

yeah, crossy. i hear you. my better half says...if i wanted to live in the tropics i would have moved to queensland.

4:37 am

for a while....our nights were becoming warmer after the sun had set....go figure.

4:37 am

only down under:)

4:38 am

we've actualy been Lucky; there's been much more snow in nortern France and in the UK

4:38 am

oh, btw.....mother mac, who was admitted to hospital last saturday, for pain management....now has a chest infection. *sigh*

4:38 am

:(((

4:39 am

are they eeoing her?

4:39 am

keeping* too cold to type

4:40 am

and my mother has been admitted into a full-time care facility. looks like she won't be going back to her home again, ever

4:40 am

wow, you've so uch on your plate {{rose}}

4:40 am

not to bring the chog down but my mrs lost her older brother yesterday morn.she is coping well but send out some hugs and prays for her just in case.that is her da 2 years ago,her mum this october just past and now her oldest brother:(

4:42 am

how is your husband taking it? It must be a bit of relief for you, though. Is she at "your"hospital rose?

4:43 am

no ruby, she is at the local hospital, just around the corner from our home. don is okay....in fact, i think he is relieved...he doesn't handle running around after her very well.

4:44 am

I love you both but must go and cook

4:45 am

{{rose}} {{crossy}}

4:45 am

"it can be tough when they try to keep thier own home long past the time it is advisable.unless a declining senior is under your own roof,you get run ragged trying to make sure all is ok

((ruby))

4:46 am

4:47 am

7:54 am

thx mael

7:54 am

so true, hurshy. I've been away on business for a week and a 77 is what I come back to? feh.

7:55 am

feh!

7:55 am

what kind of business do you work in, mael?

7:55 am

I manage my own investment company

7:56 am

oh my

7:56 am

are you one of the 1% ?

7:56 am

I inherited it when I was 22 and had to make do :)

7:56 am

gee, all i inherited was depression.

7:57 am

I am, and I would love my taxes raised :)

7:57 am

^5 for mael

7:57 am

i never imagined anyone who did that sort of thing would have time for babble

7:58 am

I work from home, so I make my own hours

7:58 am

babble really helps me decompress

7:58 am

i love being below the poverty line.you fly right under revenue canada's radar

7:58 am

I was an english major in college, words are more my speed than business

7:58 am

sure, but, one gets the impression that those hours are very numerous

7:59 am

we just run right across the spectrum here i guess

8:00 am

every facet of life is here in babble:)

8:02 am

they are numerous, but erratic. So I maybe work like crazy for a week, 7am-9pm days, and then some days it's quieter :)

8:02 am

name that proper noun! little swiss girl of children's lit

8:02 am

heidi!

8:02 am

ding ding ding!

8:03 am

anyone know what the ACTUAL h from the right is?

8:04 am

oh wait, i do!

8:04 am

care to share? been looking for that for 15 min now:(

I've been thinking of that little swiss girl lately because we just got goats and are about to embark on a goat milk binge....

8:05 am

writer O He5

8:05 am

nice rasta! did you name 'em schwanli and barli?

8:05 am

goat milk is very good for you however my experience has shown me the actual keeping of goats is a royal P.I.T.A

8:06 am

ty hurshy

Thanks, hurshy! I usually get those weird units, but not today. Mama goat came with the name Rowan, we're naming the little girls Juniper and Pinyon, which is our climax ecosystem here and continues the mountain tree theme...

8:07 am

now i want goats.

Yes, we know big commitment. But the sailor dh has retired and is eager to stay home for extended periods. Happy to have an excuse to not leave. And the only way to get raw milk here in NV.

8:09 am

we had 5 acres and a house dead centre.we had a gradious plan to get three goats that had become available at a reasonable price. 1 nanny,one billy and a young one born that spring.we envisioned need crop circles of acre cleanliness and every few days moving the goats over 20 feet on their daytime tethers and in no time at all having a nice neat tidy 5 acrel lot...did not work that way! lol

We've only had them 4 days, so far they're charming and not too demanding. But we haven't started milking yet, leaving the kids on mama so she doesn't fill up, while we build the milking stand. Got them in kind of a hurry

We don't see how we can have them in the yard eating, they'll eat all the things we care about. But we back up to the BLM and have 10K acres of sagebrush scrub for them to graze on, once we get them comfortable with us to take out on leads

8:12 am

10K acres? wow!

8:12 am

they ate the plants,they ate the bark of the trees,they ate the trees themselves,they ate all the grass down to a dustbowl inducing height,they ate all the flowers,they ate the tether rope and when they got loose they ate the door and window trim off of the house..they ate everything

8:13 am

our 5 acres lasted one month exactly and we were in the middle of a dust bowl.we had to sell them

8:14 am

better stock in lots of alternative feed

8:14 am

well with 10K, i think rasta should be ok....

Well 10K might be a bit of an exaggeration for our bit; it is bounded by some roads so it's finite. But I bet it's 1K at least, more than our goats can damage. The ATVs do way more damage.

8:14 am

i woukld start off with 50 bales of hay and 50 bales of straw lol

yes, alfalfa will be the bulk of their diet.

8:15 am

we failed to research it properly hehe

8:15 am

sorry ten thousand acres? well,you may have enough then :))

8:16 am

maybe lol

The family we got them from estimated only two flakes a day, and some grain as a treat for the milking stand. Salt block. that's about it. All the sagebrush will be extra

but we are coming into this with minimal experience. Dh has had horses in the past though, they can't be worse than that. No hoof work at least

8:17 am

we were so shell shocked after that we went with just goldfish for the next year or 2

lol

8:18 am

pigs however are easy

8:19 am

though we had them all get nasty sunburns one year and we had to make them a new wallow fast

Dh volunteers at the local animal shelter, and they just inherited a banty rooster. Gave him to us because we're the only people thye know with chickens. But we already have a rooster. Tried in on briefly to see if they possibly might get a long, but of course not. We are now considering tossing him into the goat yard, see how that works out.

8:20 am

cannot hurt

dh won't consider pigs, because he refuses to think about actually killing an anima, and that's the only reason to grow pigs.

8:20 am

i do not THINK they will try and eat the rooster...

8:21 am

thats why we gave all our pigs names like porkchop,backbacon,saussage etc

We think he might be able to fly, though, unlike our heavier birds in the chicken coop proper, and the goat yard isn't covered

8:21 am

half fly half leaping sort of thing.they can clear a fence if allowed

we've got 6 ft chain link around the goat pen. But a sensible bird would stick around, yes?

8:23 am

we had chickens once.the most stupid batch of birds i have ever met in my life.one winter night the heat lamp bulb burnt out and we did not know till morning.we went in there and what did we see.9 of the 15 birds had just stodd in the water trough till it froze around their feet!

We have a pigeon in the chicken coop, rescued it with a broken wing at one point, same dilemma, what do you do with it, so we tossed it in there. Wing healed , she can fly just fine now, got out once and came back voluntarily for the easy lving...

Chicken yard is fully enclosed due to hawk problem...

8:25 am

yes,no need to put out snacks for the predatory birds...

we fed a lot of coyote early on too

Free ranging sounded nice but didn't work

8:27 am

coyotes are just coming back heavy here now.till 5 years ago they were a rare thing.now ,in our town at least people have learned to have indoor cats instead of letting them roam.coyotes love cat meat it seems

yes we've lost some cats as well.

8:28 am

and we now have tons of wild turkeys.15 years ago we made a deal with kentucky.we traded 100 of out white tailed deer for 100 of their turkeys..was a good deal all round

lol my sister in WI has a neighborhood turkey. The mailman refuses to deliver anymore, he is terrorized

8:34 am

with proper permit we are allowed to enter a lottery to take one turkey per year. but not many permits are issued

8:38 am

we do not want to lose them again

8:38 am

morning all. crossy on your recipe yesterday, are the pork sausages like breakfast sausages or mild italian...or something else?

8:39 am

i use the dinner size honey garlic saussages

8:39 am

but nice big italian sausages will work also.not the breakfast ones howeve

8:40 am

and i used montarey(sp) jack cheese

8:40 am

h-m-m...are those Aidell (sp?) brand?

8:40 am

time before i used 5 year old apple wood smoked quebec cheddar

8:41 am

your brands differ from ours.i just got the brand they make right in store

8:41 am

sounds like some good variations!

8:41 am

got it. will see what i can come up with.

8:41 am

you do not want a octoberfest type that has to be boiled first before being cooked

8:41 am

thanks for recipe

8:42 am

just the garden variety large pan fryable saussages .ours come in a 6 pack

8:42 am

np at all was yummy

8:43 am

and leave it in till the cheese just start to get dark bubbly spots on it...mmmmm

8:43 am

like you would do with scalloped taters

8:44 am

making me very, very hungry!

8:45 am

i used 1/4 package of leftover penne noodles,but any type will do

8:45 am

and cut each pre cooked sausage bruchetta style on an angle into 5-5 pieces

8:45 am

approx how many servings from that recipe?

8:46 am

will serve 5 with veggies and salad

8:46 am

4-5 pieces*

8:47 am

uselarge square glass pyrex lasagna oven dish

8:48 am

i need to go back and add all these tips to the recipe! thanks again. back into lurk mode. hagd

8:48 am

i used honey vs the corn syrup.nice grade a honey in the sausage coating makes all the difference

8:49 am

and go a tad heavier on the chilli powder,but just a tich.just enough to make your lips tingle like you have been kissing for an hour non stop:)))

9:00 am

9:36 am

Hello everyone

someone who is not an native english speaker, what sort of english would they speak

9:36 am

Think of what many indigenous populations speak when first leasrning a European language

9:36 am

10:16 am

;-)

10:16 am

son trying to show he is as tough as his dad i suspect

10:17 am

I'm sure none of the world is ignoring NK now. They are drawing so much attention to themselves.

10:17 am

yeah, we all know how well that worked for the bushes... ;)

10:17 am

If you want to see how backwards a country really is, go to Google Earth and look at a night time view of the Koreas. The image is startling.

10:20 am

nbt. . .

10:20 am

what does it show judi?

10:20 am

It's crazy, Kate. SK is lit up light a Christmas tree and NK is as dark as a tomb. Just shows how little resources NK really has.

10:21 am

maybe they are conscious of light pollution ;-

10:22 am

sorry trying for ;-)

10:22 am

I didn't know that Oh was a first name : D

10:22 am

wow, so like they are in the stone age... i think they have the (natural) resources, just not the infrastructure... plenty of coal

10:22 am

No, the plural

10:37 am

brb

2:22 pm

it's times like this that i wish we could go back and do the old grids.. wish i knew how to write a program for it...

2:31 pm

i think that is a great idea Trader

2:34 pm

I got opened the grid and I read about phaeton losing her daughter. My God. Does anyone know what happened?

2:34 pm

*just

2:34 pm

oh no i didn't read that. . .how sad!

2:35 pm

How awful!

2:37 pm

where did you read it?

2:38 pm

It is in today's grid...someone was asking phaeton how she was and she was sorry about the loss of her daughter. Too, too sad

2:39 pm

When I read that a babbler was saying how sorry she was, I went to the archives to find out more. But that's all that were there.

2:40 pm

dear me. . . maybe in yesterday's?

2:40 pm

or in Facebook, but I am not in FB

2:42 pm

no, it was maybe a month ago now, not sure exactly. she had leukemia i think, so it was not sudden.

2:44 pm

That is terribly sad.

2:46 pm

I remember now. . . no memory in my wee little brain. . .

2:46 pm

i hesitated about saying anything after so long, but i hadn't seen her since i heard about it.

2:46 pm

She left 3 children, 7, 5 and 2. Three adorable children.

2:47 pm

lol, you're brain is crammed full of "taxing" numbers is it jmc?

2:47 pm

*sigh*

3:04 pm

ty ty i greyed that one out.. .

3:04 pm

i am on hold with weight watchers with which i am very unhappy. . .

3:04 pm

Uh oh, what did Weight Watchers do?

3:05 pm

i signed up 2 weeks free trial. . . except they are trying to make it not a free trial. . .

3:06 pm

:) who says grey is a dirty word ;) crazy clue for pi 6/30 take a farm animal + a loud noise... reverse the 2 consonants in the center for broken english

3:06 pm

I am very leery of "free trial" offers.

3:06 pm

hmmmm, just a hard sell or is it bait & switch?

3:07 pm

They always want your credit card number and I just know something is going to get charged to it.

3:07 pm

very very hard sell

3:08 pm

they have a pretty good reputation, i would think giving someone 2 weeeks free wouldn't be abig deal, they'll be raking it in after that any way.....

3:08 pm

Poor Weight Watchers. They don't know who they are dealing with. : D

3:08 pm

are they trying to sell you the supplementary foods?

3:08 pm

I tried to do their "free" online program too

3:08 pm

grins @ molly and nods

3:08 pm

not so free

3:09 pm

i have done it before and always gotten my money back. . . but i read the fine print

3:09 pm

did you have trouble gemini ?

3:09 pm

what happened with you gemini?

3:09 pm

couldn't sign up for free... there was a fee

3:10 pm

they are advertising it all over TV

3:10 pm

A fee for free, gotta love it : D

3:10 pm

what did they calll it, a processing fee or something?

3:10 pm

i am getting my money back but it cost me 2 hours on the phone and some rather crisp language!

3:10 pm

not to mention a stamp, envelop and piece of paper. . .

3:10 pm

I think you got the 2 weeks free,, but had to pay for 3 months... some deal like that

3:11 pm

Crappy customer service.

3:11 pm

exactly gemini. . . i offered to sue them if they tried that. . .

3:11 pm

imagining just what constitutes "crisp" language in jmc's world....

3:11 pm

i told the girl she should be embarrassed. . . and that was one of the nice things i said. . .

3:12 pm

up here herbal life has a thing on now - they pay you $10.00 for every pound you lose... think there's a catcch?

3:12 pm

I like the offers where they offer you a two week sample of "the product" for free, but you have to pay $16.95 for shipping and handling. Right.

3:13 pm

haha. . . yes . . .

3:13 pm

her explanantion for the 87 hoops i am suppose to jump through is that they need "feed back" on the program. . .

3:13 pm

not much for free in this world... except for hugs and clues in babbleland

3:13 pm

Ooo JMC, I hope you don't find Jennifer Hudson singing on your front lawn. : D

3:14 pm

I just dropped it,, but have a friend who joined online,,, she is happy with the deal... $18 a month.... after the "free" deal

3:14 pm

I pointed out (using words begining with B and S)that they could get feed back online or by the phone. . . .

3:14 pm

if jennifer shows up we will pelt her with FISH!

3:15 pm

i know several people who love WW but I could never find the things that I cook in their lists. . . homemade tamales just weren't part of the plan. . .

3:15 pm

and i could figure out a way to take ingredients to figure out the points. . . i am sure it is fine for people who eat out or frozen dinners. . .

3:16 pm

But wait...all those happy, thin people on TV say you can lose weight eating all the things you love. : O

3:16 pm

mmmm, now i'm getting really hungry. skipped lunch today, now longing for tamales

3:16 pm

my neighbors may warn Jennifer Hudson about the time the party next door went on too late on a school night. . .

3:17 pm

ya, the one lady says "and on WW i can have <<A>> cookie.... who the hell eats ONE cookie?

3:17 pm

i guess they don't love homemade food. . . and i know that has to be wrong because my friend did fine with the program and she cooks all the time. . .

3:17 pm

i don't even eat sweets!

3:18 pm

I will refrain from commenting on Weight Watchers because there are too many people here who think it's the cat's meow.

3:18 pm

<----- could not live without choclit and cheese... the list is very long and caloric :)

3:18 pm

anyway these companies underestimate my patience when i get mad. . . .

3:18 pm

I will say that everyone I know who has "gone on Weight Watchers" has gone off of it and gained all their weight back.

3:19 pm

if it works for you, then it's great... not every program works for everybody

3:19 pm

you know molls. . . i figure it works for some people so good for them. . . it just didn't work for me. . . clicking a button saying i had 8 hours sleep really didn't do it for me. . .

3:20 pm

no one of my best friends really had her life turned around in a good way and she has kept the weight off even though she is now in Beijing. . .

3:20 pm

True enough. No one weight loss plan works for everyone.

3:20 pm

hehe after 30 years i took great delight in disabling the alarm feature on every clock in the house..however now that i do not HAVE to get up at 05:30 am,i seem to wake up on my own at 05:15...life karma at work:(

3:20 pm

i think i will have to go find one of those old calorie counter books that have things like 3 oz. cornmeal

3:21 pm

and as for weight loss..i will not even go there.too busy enjoying my 4th life

3:22 pm

it must be out online somewhere jmc crossy takes his awakening into his own hands - woot!

3:22 pm

well i want to enjoy my life so i need to slim down some. . . but i will say that while i was thinking about it over the last week i did lose 4 lbs

3:22 pm

no almost everything online dealing with weight loss has a price tag. . .

3:22 pm

my family is getting zapped like bugs in a bug zapper last 3 years..seems sensless to worry about the fat content of the yogurt i am about to eat in that light:))

I have only ever lost weight because I was active. I have never become active because I lost weight.

3:24 pm

http://www.myfitnesspal.com/ i've heard about this from a couuple of folks lately - and there's an app for it too

3:24 pm

same here windingwake. now that my kness are a problem,i do hiking all summer and snowshoeing in winter..less damaging

3:25 pm

the reality is that weight cuts life expectancy. . . it is about balance for me. . . i don't want to be a marathon runner but i want to stop panting when i walk up to my upper level baseball seats. . .

also a life without butter would make me sad. ;)

3:25 pm

ty trader i will check that out

3:25 pm

rad the reports on margerines lately?? my god!! i could not run back to real butter fast enough!!

3:25 pm

butter is better :)

3:26 pm

it is indeed

3:26 pm

what julia child said that it wasn't about life without butter it was about using the right amount of butter well

Of course balance--but I think if you look close at the studies, there's a lot of wiggle room in that weight v. life expectancy. Numbers like cholesterol or blood pressure matter a lot more.

3:26 pm

all moderation..except for my bacon:))

3:26 pm

i have never bought margerine

3:27 pm

but for most people cholestoral and blood pressure is linked to weight. . .

3:27 pm

my brother in law was thin and trin and got poleaxed by a stroke last fall,second one carried him off 2 days ago..you never know

3:27 pm

he was 51

3:27 pm

sorry to hear that crossy. . .

3:27 pm

i'll use margerine for some cooking, but not for things like veal cutlets... there is no substitute for the perfect grease :)

3:27 pm

ty,jmc

3:27 pm

i am 62 and my mother lived to 96 and grandmother to 98 so i want my probably long life to be a good one. . .

3:27 pm

my beloved has had a tough go.her mum last oct and now her brother and her da 2 years ago

I'm sorry too. That's so hard.

3:28 pm

i use olive oil or if i can get it cotton seed oil to cook. . . sometime with a little butter or bacon fat for flavor. . .

3:28 pm

i didn't know crossy, so sorry to hear it. sending you and yours a big bear hug

3:28 pm

give elegant my sympathy crossy

I've never heard of using cotton seed oil. What is it like?

3:29 pm

right H?

3:29 pm

i have started using nice olive oils for stir frys etc

3:29 pm

i will indeed.jmc

3:29 pm

shakespeare wrote about a king kje

3:29 pm

ah ty

3:29 pm

I forget that is a word

3:29 pm

it is tasteless and colorless and undyhydogynized and therefore not bad for you like many other veggie oils

3:29 pm

hi kje. . . .

3:30 pm

hi

3:30 pm

i don't like olive oil. i find the taste too heavy, and you cna't use it for high temp cooking because it scorches too easily

interesting. I'll have to keep an eye out.

3:30 pm

but i can rarely get it up here in the relative north of washington dc! haha

3:30 pm

i try to go by the creedo 'eat brakfast like a king,lunch like a prince and dinner like a pauper" keep me from going to bed with a full stomach and that is part of the battle also

3:30 pm

gien

3:30 pm

cottonseed oil you can use at very high temps. . .

3:30 pm

sorry

3:31 pm

ty kje

3:31 pm

that was my last g word. . .

3:31 pm

use virgin olive oil vs extra virgin olive oiul for frying,kate.saying that though it is no good for deep frying applications

3:31 pm

i will look into the cottonseed oil, i have seen it. i use safflower or sunflower mostly

Well that's hopeless then, heh. I live in Maryland, heh.

3:31 pm

use coconut oil... can take high temps, neutral oil, quite good for you

3:31 pm

well i have homework to do before i go to the baseball game. . .

3:31 pm

though I mostly like olive and avocado

3:31 pm

oils

3:31 pm

ah... enjoy the game jmc!

3:32 pm

have fun at the game jmc

3:32 pm

for battered frying i use peanut oil,does not transfer taste and lasts ages

3:33 pm

i find that peanut oil tastes of peanuts... which is why i don't like satays... love pb and meat - but NOT together!

3:33 pm

i do not use deep fryers anyways.have mostly perfected the art of oven "frying"

3:39 pm

pi 6/30 normal clue... broken english? sounds like a large city bird

Wow, Kate. That is clever. I'm working on it...

3:40 pm

not that clever, i'm just tired, so my mind thinks i'm being clever

Thank you Kate. I got it. Just realized I kept guessing 5 letter words. I must be out of it today.

3:42 pm

:) we've all been there and done that!

3:42 pm

anything else?

FW for me, hagd everyone

3:42 pm

congrats winding! did you list?

I did. Some of those words are not words, so far as my brain is concerned =)

and ty =)

3:44 pm

me too, i'm no babble genius. was pleased that i got down to 15 before giving in

I was at 20-something, I think.

3:45 pm

there are a lot of really strange words in here osmetimes.. and other days it's a fish pond ;)

I have the most trouble with the long words, usually, but today it was some of those fives that got me.

3:47 pm

i really should go, see you all tomorrow hopefully..

see you, TK!

and I should go for real now, too.

3:48 pm

the really long ones either jump right out or wrap around themselves and hide... the ones that get me are the words that all use one point tiles..5-6-7 letters way too many combos!

3:48 pm

*poof*

6:13 pm

6:15 pm

Hi stidg... I made northern beans and ham last night

6:19 pm

Of course, Crossy's dinner makes me want to jump in my car and drive north....

6:19 pm

with fried potatoes and onions and of course corn bread :)

6:20 pm

Okay. Where do we locate the Babblers Drive-in and Resort? I'm thinking near Branson, Missouri.

6:20 pm

Ooo, ham, beans, fried potatoes and corn bread. Now THAT is a good meal.

6:20 pm

LOL...pretty central for everyone in NA

6:21 pm

haha...sounds good stidg

6:21 pm

my dog is enjoying the bone now :)

6:22 pm

And there are adequate motels and entertainment (as if we need more than conversation!)

6:22 pm

we should set it up in niagra fallsus/can that way we can cater to all babblers and us northern babblers will not have to drive for 2 days to eat :))

6:22 pm

i wish i could handle food right now, but migraines and cooking don't mix

6:22 pm

Well, must run to store to even be able to forage for dinner...bye all *poof*

6:22 pm

nah...good food, good company that'll do

6:23 pm

Now that is a good suggestion, Crossy. Niagra Falls area could certainly use the tourist business.

6:23 pm

6:27 pm

hi stid

6:28 pm

hmmmm. I guess I can give it a try. :-)

6:28 pm

it was faster than normal for me but that's because monkey typing works best with 4 letter words, even if they are babblets

6:30 pm

stid and stidg are in the grid :)

6:30 pm

hi folks

6:30 pm

hi welki

6:30 pm

6:36 pm

6:38 pm

Hi mama. Just finished playing games with Murphy. He is feeling pretty good with his new ear medicine.

6:41 pm

6:41 pm

6:42 pm

6:43 pm

6:44 pm

Good morning all - or evening ;)

6:44 pm

hi liz

6:45 pm

oops...sorry it replaced the franc in Guinea in 1972

6:45 pm

Hm! Just found that coin!

6:45 pm

Morning Liz

6:45 pm

Hi liz. I was sorry when the franc became obsolite (s0.)

6:46 pm

hey mother! sorry, watching some tv with tom and grant and a friend.

6:46 pm

it was an exhausting day today, don't know that I am being all that brave though welki! I cuss an awful lot these days

6:46 pm

hi all!

6:46 pm

cussing can be very therapeutic, stid :-)

6:47 pm

:)

6:47 pm

:-) thanks sue

6:47 pm

I think I'd do more than cuss if I were in your position, stud.

6:47 pm

Mother, thanks again for your help today. We were there until three all told, and still not quite "finished" but we had to be done so the guys could go home.

6:48 pm

how's life on your side of the world, liz? getting chilly yet?

6:48 pm

Cooling down - had to use a duvet on the bed last night!

6:48 pm

Can't really call it chilly though!

6:48 pm

Hope spring is raising its head up there.

6:48 pm

Nothing like being cozy at night.

6:49 pm

starting to, liz -- I took some pics today of the garden but don't yet know how to offload from the new camera

6:49 pm

It's odd though when you've been sleeping with a sheet, when you suddenly realise that the reason you can't sleep is because you're not quite warm enough.

6:49 pm

suze!! do you and frank have your telescope all set for the 22nd of this month? not that you will need it as much of it will be perfect visible to the naked eye:))

6:50 pm

I love spring in the UK - the freshness of the colours.

6:50 pm

still, it's lovely to see trillium (local native li4 plant) and peach and pear blossoms on the trees at last

6:50 pm

don't have a telescope, crossy, but if it's clear we'll be looking

6:50 pm

Hope you do manage to post some pics.

6:51 pm

I am going to try liz -- tonight or tomorrow. I don't have anything scheduled tomorrow so can stay up later tonight and sleep in....

6:52 pm

A luxury you deserve after with all the stuff you've got going on.

6:52 pm

so my doctor's office called today, they want me to come back for more pictures after my mammogram yesterday - probably all is well but it is worrying

6:52 pm

*refocuses on sue* ((((((((SUE)))))))

6:53 pm

Hugs Sue and sending lots of hopes your way :)

6:53 pm

i hate those recalls. gives you just enough time to develop an anxiety disorder

6:53 pm

wonders if maybe the pics were just SOOOOOO pretty they wanted more?

6:53 pm

thanks, liz and stid! as I say probably all is well, but my fingernails will probably be well-chewed between now and next Thursday

6:53 pm

hahaha, pretty funny, stid :-)

6:54 pm

I was looking at my calendar and notice Thursday so far is empty.

6:55 pm

These last 13 words are proving totally challenging :(

6:57 pm
