4:12 am

4:14 am

he did the shopping and brought back 20 lovely tulips. He always buys flowers at the supermarket, a very nice thing.

4:14 am

He already had his two amparis, is napping prior to our going out for lunch

4:14 am

camparis*

4:14 am

well, a redeeming feature at last. hang onto to it, dear

4:14 am

It is still cold and nasty here

4:14 am

hi ruby and gran

4:15 am

hey sandy

4:15 am

I think that th shopping is too hard for him, but he insists on doing it anyway

4:15 am

have to find out what mum's condition is gran and then i will get back to you

4:15 am

I would be happy to shop at the local market, but I am not prepared to go with him to the big store

4:15 am

Ruby, how is rafaella

4:15 am

sweetheart, let him do it...he has to feel useful.....otherwise you cop it.

4:15 am

{{sandy}} what's up?

4:16 am

It was our first beautiful spring day--80--a bit windy but a great day

4:16 am

we are having our shed built at the moment it is 24m x 10m

4:16 am

where are you puglet?

4:16 am

the vet came last night, and aside from her runny eyeys, she is a great pup, very smart and affectionate plus, amazingy, housebroken

4:17 am

Midwest Indiana-USA

4:17 am

Midwest Indiana-USA

4:17 am

will her eyes improve? is it just getting better after the op?

4:17 am

the vet is astonished at the sweetness of our chows. Evidently, all her past experience with the breed has been negative

4:17 am

sounds nice there, i am from west australia

4:18 am

that's not surprising, ruby...considering their mistress

4:18 am

I don't know what the story is with the entropion. The people in Spain say they operated but my vet couldn't see evidence of it.

4:18 am

do you have winter type weather there--such as snow

4:19 am

puglet, we have very hot dry summers and nice mild winters, no snow ever. i have seen snow but never seen it falling

4:19 am

not here of course

Hi Puglet. I grew up in Indiana

4:19 am

Ruby lived with entropion her whole life and was certainly beautiful and the little bit of tears she had, weren't a big problem

4:19 am

our winters are a lot like english summers

Hi everyone

4:19 am

puglet, snow over here in victoria, even as late as october.

4:20 am

hello Alexis

4:20 am

Hi Alexis

4:20 am

hey alexis

4:20 am

I am tired of this endless winter, need some sun! The garden is overgrown with weeds as they don't seem to mind th cold and rain

4:20 am

I like snow but after a bit Iam ready for green grass

4:21 am

I have been skiing at a resort there LOL very loosely called skiing falling over and not being able to get back up was my main experience

4:21 am

I am tired of the endless summer

I don't miss winter at all. If I never see snow again, I'll be happy

4:21 am

Margaret river just hosted the world surfing championships

4:21 am

skiing is something Ive never tried

4:22 am

one of the reasons we moved to this part of France was that it is only 5 hrs from St. Anton and Lech where we used to ski. Now I'm too afraid that somebody will crash into me, so have given it up

4:22 am

Ruby, you would have loved to have seen my efforts LOL

4:22 am

oh, wow...ruby...my heroine....you ski!!!! never mastered that...

4:22 am

one neighbor (and expert skiier) died from a crash (at 61!) and another had his pelvis fractured by an errant jerk

4:23 am

I was nothing special, started at 32, but loved it. It was like dancing

4:23 am

I was a horse nut for years but have given it up due to bad knees--I sure do miss it though

4:23 am

It is 'wine o'clock here ' so i am going to sit in our new shed and drink some

4:23 am

I miss skiing and running. Now my big exercise is going up and down stairs

I've never been near a horse or skis...

Horses freak me out

4:24 am

we have horses pug, and I still ride at my advanced age-

4:24 am

and I have started learning to do their feet !!

4:24 am

cheers, Sandy. Will your TV be hooked up in tim for th Tour? You know you're always welcome and it's always wine o'clock here

4:25 am

If it is not- I will be staying with my mum for three weeks

4:25 am

juar ao you know....lol

4:25 am

I have been thinking about getting me a driving pony--I like that too but nothing is like on the back of one

4:26 am

looove, horse riding...not very good at it, but love it. could it be something to do with my childhood ambition to be the lady who rode the horse bare-backed in the circus?

4:26 am

just so* (still haven't got this keyboard down)

4:26 am

i would love to learn the driving it is so elegant but the carriages are very expensive

4:26 am

I'm thinking of hitching up a chow to a little wagon for me -- imagine Rufie saying "You want me to do what?"

4:26 am

I got dogs -chickens and a pet turkey that acts like King Kong

4:26 am

gran i always wanted them to pick me for that circus thing

4:27 am

have to go have fun guys bbl

4:27 am

love the idea of a pet turkey

4:27 am

lol, sandy....two minds/hearts.....

4:27 am

not a rooster of evil!! bye

Never heard of a pet turkey

4:27 am

that Rose is something!

4:27 am

I got all my equipment still(just cant get rid of it yet)so I got my carts and saddles yet

4:27 am

????pet turkey....lolol, ruby

4:28 am

hand

4:28 am

I would like to keep chickens and a goat, but I'm afraid it would ruin the garden and I think I have enough to do

4:28 am

bye sandy

4:28 am

yeah his name is Baldy and he weighs about fifty pounds

4:28 am

bye sandy

4:29 am

does he hide at Thanksgiving?

4:30 am

no--hes our pet

4:30 am

just kidding

4:30 am

lol, ruby, that reminds me of years ago when we had a male goat, as a lawn mower. and my sister-in-law's parents, who are full-on greeks visited us. he saw our goat and asked.....

4:30 am

hes good for keeping varmits out of our chickens

Goats are adorable. I want pet goats someday

4:31 am

'do you milk it?' and i answered...i don't think HE would like it....then again, he might.

4:32 am

I love goats, but unfortunately, they love roses. Sheep too. There are many places in France where they use goats or sheep to keep the grass cut.

I never thought of keeping a goat as a landscaper

4:32 am

and the farmers bring about 30 sheep down to the field across our road, every fall, to eat the long grass

4:33 am

on our morning news the Police was called out to a home with lots of animals dead and many others knocking on heavens gate--thats a sad thing to hear for those poor creatures

4:33 am

they both landscape and fertilize!

4:34 am

behind th train station in Basel, which has a steep hill, they use sheep to cut the grass

4:34 am

bye for now, kids, {{rose}} see you later

4:34 am

alexis, ours would act differently, depending on who was near him...my husband, the goat would rearup and put his hooves on his shoulders, and lick his sweaty face....the children he would very gently butt until they fell over....me, he always was very gentle with, and would stand quietly by my side, and let me scratch his head for him.

4:34 am

bye foo--hawd

4:34 am

bye foo--hawd

4:35 am

love and hugs ruby

4:35 am

that is interesting, rose. Even the dogs have different degrees of gentleness with different people

4:35 am

bye little pug

4:35 am

and bye alexis

4:36 am

Raffie lick, then bits me and stands up on my legs. She doesn't do that with anybody else

4:36 am

licks* bites* poopy typist here

4:36 am

animals are incredibly intelligent.

I've never even been near a goat. I just think they're adorable and I've heard they're good pets

4:38 am

My pug(annapooh) is so funny--she bosses our great dane--takes food right out of her mouth-yet shes afraid of the dark

4:42 am

Ive owned a few goats and they do make a good pet--But they are in everything and on everything/they will follow you like a dog

4:42 am

puglet, alexis, do you both have access to lickety split's list of clues?

yes

4:44 am

do either of you need further clues?

I'm good for now. Just started. Thank you, though.

4:45 am

okay alexis...puglet, how are you doing?

4:45 am

Im half way

4:46 am

thank you for asking

4:46 am

okay.....happy babbling.....perhaps see you tomorrow....hope you both have a good one

4:47 am

same to you rose

What part of Indiana are you in, Puglet?

4:53 am

I live near a small town called Milroy

Never heard of it. I'm from Northwest Indiana near Chicago.

4:53 am

Iam out in the country and we live among Amish

I didn't even know there's an amish community in Indiana

4:55 am

oh--Larger towns nearby are greensburg-Rushville and Shelbyville--I live almost right in the middle of the three

4:55 am

yes --theres several through out

I guess I don't know my Indiana geography. I'm not familiar with southern Indiana at all.

I was chatting one night here and we had 5 people from Indiana... it was weird

4:57 am

you still live in Ind

4:57 am

that is

No. I moved to California a few years ago. My family is still there so I visit a couple times a year.

4:58 am

Ive never been to cal but it looks wonderful on tv

Can't complain about the weather, that's for sure

It's a different world from Indiana

5:03 am

my computer is acting up --I dont care for hot temps or hot weather but it would be nice to visit during the winter months

The grid is freezing up tonight

It doesn't get too hot here

We don't get the triple digits and humidity that you have in Indiana

5:05 am

that sounds wonderful---a few years ago I visited my sister in Texas during the winter and got really sunburnt--yuck! Iam a redhead and burn very easily

Texas weather is pretty mild all year, huh?

5:06 am

I was where she was

This game is really getting glitchy on me. I'm gonna go lay down and catch a movie before bed. It was nice chatting with you.

5:07 am

I did love the openness down there--you can go for miles and not see houses upon houses--that was really weird to me

5:08 am

it was nice chatting with you--have a peaceful sleep and a wonderful day--GB

5:30 am

6:28 am

aw ruby.... tough going too :(

6:28 am

lol @ruby. people feel same about me not talking. .

6:28 am

that is terrible, ivesy. Can nothing be done?

6:29 am

he didn't say a word when the dentist tortured him and left him looking like the losing end of a heavyweight bout, but is ready to be nasty to me at the drop of a hat

6:29 am

well, first off have to quit smoking. which i dont smoke whenim sic. trying to take vitamins, and lots of fruit. no cure im afraid.

6:29 am

I just ue Sprite's words "Talk to my hand (|or worse)my head is tired"

6:29 am

it is a family thing with us, ivesy, most people in our family have it. I am very lucky that I only have the skin issues and a cough that won't subside after any kind of cold/flu. Very very minor.

6:30 am

ah ruby.. he needs good kick in butt.

6:30 am

YOU STILL SMOKE????

6:30 am

he should be institutionalised, ruby. He is so ready for that... as are you.

6:30 am

hate the cough. very annoying.

6:31 am

bad ivesy! Come over here, I'll get you off cigs and you can give him the needed kick in the butt1!

6:31 am

fraid so ruby. though am trying best to quit.

6:31 am

sounds like a plan ruby!!

6:31 am

*hugs ivesy*

6:31 am

the cost of cigs alone should make anyone quit.

6:33 am

my best friend from Miami is coming in May and I've invited his daughter in June, so at least I'll have buffers and some company

6:33 am

back with coffee :)

6:34 am

6:34 am

glad to hear that ruby. .. how do the puppies act when he is mean to you?

6:34 am

wb smores :)

6:34 am

they don't notice but, if I leave the room, so do they

6:35 am

6:35 am

7:58 am

congrats, mixi

7:58 am

lol..TO I did the same thing

8:04 am

I am so grateful I don't have to deal with allergies. That must take all the joy out of Spring.

8:04 am

you are so lucky Molly.

8:05 am

I never had allergies until 2 years ago...weird

8:05 am

still don't have it too bad...so I am grateful as well

8:05 am

my whole life has been a mess of allergies to anything flying around out there

8:06 am

ugh...

8:06 am

the only thing which would help me would be to move to a desert

8:07 am

One of my sisters is like that..

8:07 am

awww...the allergy meds don't help?

8:08 am

to a degree. My biggest problem is my eyes. I am always rubbing them and they are always red and swollen. I use drops, it helps to some degree

8:08 am

Strong allergy history in my family

8:10 am

yeah my sister is pretty much the same way...mostly her eyes

8:10 am

I have a friend who had great success treating her allergies with accupuncture.

8:11 am

Hi, everyone! Bichon, I constantly sufer from allergies in every way imaginable. I'm my own worst enemy, though, since I'm allergic to cats and have three!! Allergic meds help to a degree but never completely take care of it.

8:11 am

{{Mimi}}

8:12 am

Bichons are hypoallergenic. I need to keep them clean of stuff they bring in from the outside on their coats

8:12 am

teehee

8:12 am

{{smores}}

8:13 am

sorry...that just sounded funny to me...hypoallergenic pooch

8:14 am

they don't shed [have to have hair cut], thus no dander

8:14 am

:)

8:16 am

I imagine it's difficult to have three cats when you are allergic to them.

8:16 am

I am very allergic to cats

8:18 am

I've found that I get kind of used to my own after awhile but then when I get around other cats I really suffer. It used to be bad when I worked with exotic cats at the wildlife park---I was constantly sneezing, rubbing eyes and taking medication. But I must feel it's worth it....can't imagine being without my cats now.

8:18 am

Bo Obama is a hypoallergenic dog as well

8:20 am

yes he is. As well as Shih Tzu's, Havanese, Golden Wheaten Terriers, Poodles

8:20 am

Growning up, I always wanted a cat, but my mom was allergic. I finally got my 1st cat when I was 19. My mom was coming over to visit and check up my new apartment, I told her I just got a cat but would vacuum well and put her in the bedroom....she laughed and told me " I'm not allergic I just can't stand cats"

8:20 am

It seems that people are more allergic to cats than dogs...not sure why. I'm also allergic to everything in nature (pollen, grasses, hay makes me crazy) and dust....great because I live in the desert and must dust every day. I should move to Antarctica because I don't think I'm allergic to snow!

8:20 am

oh what a lying mom!

8:21 am

I know....right...lol

8:21 am

Well, she may have kind of been telling the truth....apparently she was emotionally allergic!

8:21 am

someone who's dowdy is a dowd. i know i have seen that word used in books.

8:22 am

Enable is a cranky fussbudget

8:22 am

She said she knew if she told me she just didn't like them I wouldve talked her into it or snuck one in.

8:23 am

you must have had a very different household than i did then. what mom said, went.

8:23 am

like mine hurshy

8:24 am

lol...for the most part it did Hurshy...but I was always one to push it :)

8:24 am

with pets at least

8:26 am

my mom is just no fun. we never could go out to eat, we didn't go on vacation unless my grandparents paid, we had to eat peanut butter sandwiches on a 1000 mile road trip for college visit, no restaurants allowed...

8:27 am

"Awww...but Mom, he's sooo cute"

8:28 am

My mom was fun...we didn't go out a lot and there weren't many vacations...but she was fun :)

8:28 am

Whoa, hurshy...so sorry for that. I had the opposite childhood but, then, I was raised by my grandparents, though I didn't know they were my actual grandparents and that I was related to them until I was 22......LONG story.

8:29 am

that's so funny, mimi, that's how it was for my mother-in-law, except i think she found out a bit younger than that.

8:30 am

we couldn't have pets because we lived in a place that didn't allow pets. We could have fish and parakeets

8:30 am

I was raised with my biological father as my brother. Met my bio mother at 22 and her 5 other kids but the funny thing was I was actually more like her than any of them including my looks...genes are weird.

8:30 am

usually spam subject lines are so boring - viagara this, cialis that... but i just got one that said, "He WAS a blossom". wonder what that's about.

8:31 am

<---hates spam

8:31 am

I don't even look at my spam anymore---just delete. I generally get over 100 every day.

8:32 am

as opposed to those hording masses clamoring for more spam, smores?

8:32 am

We always had a dog plus whatever else I brought home..lol

8:32 am

I use gmail, you can delete spam forever

8:32 am

:)

8:33 am

is she still no fun hurshy? We ate peanut butter too, it was a money thing. But we ate them on wonter oicnics or deserted bridges--mini-vacations.

8:33 am

she is still no fun.

8:33 am

awww

8:33 am

could she learn, be taught, to be fun, even now? seems something deep seated--what was her childhod like?

8:34 am

far as i can tell, her childhood was fine. and no, i am pretty sure she could not learn now. she is just very self-absorbed and pretty socially isolated.

8:35 am

I do feel sorry for people like that....must be awful to not experience joy in life.

8:35 am

so sad. and such beautiful grandkids. is she in us or uk?

8:36 am

she may experience joy, i don't know. but she kind of sucks it out of other people. she's in the US (as am i really, i'm only a wannabe brit)

8:36 am

We did the same thing RoundBarn...grew up rather poor but Mom made it fun :)

8:36 am

Are your maternal grandparents like that, too?

8:36 am

no, my maternal grandparents were ok. a little on the frugal side, growing up in the depression, but would buy us pizza when visiting.

8:36 am

we grew up rich in everything but money. Lucky us.

8:37 am

:)

8:38 am

lots of beans, biscuits and gravy and pb&j all served up with laughter and love

8:38 am

my mother was very frugal. I always had hand-me-downs and I could never buy a book. It had to come from the library. Both parents grew up in the depression

8:38 am

But, we always had meat

8:38 am

I thought we were rich when I was growing up but my dad was actually blue collar---he just worked lots of overtime and they tended to spend it all on me....spoiled, I guess, but always knew I was lucky rather than "deserving." I got both money and love...how totally lucky was I?!!

8:39 am

:)

8:39 am

We grew up in a housing project for lower middle class people.

8:39 am

My dad had three jobs

8:39 am

wow

8:40 am

i'm going to Dorset in three weeks. Stay on a farm with old rriends. go to whitehorse hill and Tolkien's lonbarrow. My cousin in Cornwall has died, so Cornwall may be out--emotionally--but I may go see the Eden project. My first child was born in England--she's the one who died recently--it will be hard going without her but if I don't go now, when. Am getting too old!

8:40 am

The father of my best friend of 43 years nicknamed us PB&J 40 years ago. Now if I have a PB&J sandwich, I'll ask her if I'm being a cannibal!!

8:40 am

My dad worked as a meter reader for the electric company and drove a taxi part time

8:40 am

sounds like a great trip roundbarn! i have been to the Eden project when visiting England, it's pretty neat.

8:41 am

my Dad was a civil servant and worked part time in a grocery store and at night in a community center

8:41 am

bbl

8:41 am

Bye, bichon.

8:42 am

Aww Roundbarn..I hope you have a wonderful trip and the memories are happy ones :)

8:42 am

Bye for now Bicon

8:44 am

had kids show up from cal last night, fairly unexpectedly--they've taken my car now but a friend will take me to the usual weds talk at the museum collection, a friend is talking on mussels. Nor sure who's coming to work here today, but my son in law wants the back stairs cleared so I guess I'll do it. he doesn't realize what he's asking. groan.

8:45 am

How's the job hunt going, smores? I have two interviews tomorrow and another couple maybes. What a struggle!

8:45 am

good morning. can anyone help with the de6/36

8:46 am

wow RoundBarn...

8:46 am

the gov't has had to de6/36 many programs because of the sequestration

8:46 am

signing off, gotta get to work and find out what's going on. goats earlier when I fist came on--daughter 3 just got goats, loaded my computer with their cute pix. She will milk so she has raw milk.

8:46 am

still looking Mimi...working part time through a temp service

8:47 am

lol...nice RoundBarn...enjoy your day...don't overdo it on the stairway :)

8:47 am

thanks hurshy, am looking

8:48 am

take money away dromano

8:48 am

oh...teehee..never mind

8:49 am

My time is up...must get ready and go.

8:49 am

thank you, smores, and jurshy, havae it!

8:50 am

Bye, smores...have a good one. Hugs.

8:50 am

Have a wonderful day everyone {{ group hug}}

8:50 am

women

8:50 am

Sorry---forgot to change over!

8:51 am

thanks everyone. I have a pension till the stte of IL de****s us, or rather keeps the money they've stolen from us--its my kids and grandkids that are looking for work. It's bad. I'm hiring an excellent student who can't get a job. Now I'm really quitting. Babble is addictive, esp the chat.

8:52 am

Bye, RB...I'm leaving, too. Hugs all around and I'm gone....

8:53 am

hare they just raised the age at which you can qualify for your pension to 67 from 65.that way they are betting that you will only hang around for a few years to collect then you can kick off and they keep the rest

8:55 am

Crossy, does that apply to our age group or to younger people? I'm getting my first early retirement check on July 3.

8:55 am

we can do an early retirement at 65 but you will lose 4000 dollars a year by doing so

8:56 am

this came into effect just last year or year before. anyone who qualified before that was not affected

8:57 am

Isn't it just that you get less per month but the total amount is still there...you don't actually lose that money. That's how it was explained to me. May be different in Canada?

8:58 am

your monthly cheque is less

8:59 am

it is all still there,technically,provided you live long enough

8:59 am

if you retired at 67 and lived to 105 you may get out everything you paid in from age 18 to 67:(

9:00 am

maybe

9:00 am

I get the feeling I'm going to live a long time...God doesn't want me there criticizing how he's running things!

9:00 am

good.live till 115 and show them who is boss!

9:01 am

Appropriate I'm in this community as if I live that long, all I'll be doing is babbling!

9:01 am

and then there are all those who never make it to 67.it staggers me that the canada pension plan is having issues

9:02 am

I think our children should be entitled to whatever is left of that money.

9:02 am

you would think so,but all those canada pension payments you made from when you first started working till when you died at age 66 just seem to vanish into a black hole

9:04 am

well,i suppose it is like auto insurance,if you do not have a claim that year,all the money you paid for a premium goes to others

9:04 am

I just wrote my senator (John McCain) complaining that companies are getting around the issue of not legally being permitted to ask your age or birth date by asking what year you graduated high school....sneaky.

9:05 am

lol,i took a ged and actually graduated 33 years later.that fixes them

9:06 am

carlee finishes university next wekk so she can use this years date for her graduation lol

9:07 am

what floors me is that i am hearing some u.s companies are asking for your FB user name and pw so they can check you out and see what you have said and posted

9:07 am

The spirit of the law is being violated and that should be remedied. No, they specifically want your high school graduation year and you can't proceed on the application unless you give it......grrr. Wonder if that's why I'm not getting as many responses I should.

send it to the EEOC, mimi.

9:09 am

of course it is being violated.they will see how far they can bend the law without actually breaking it

9:10 am

Yep, TO, was going to do that and also to my House rep. Am tired of "gray" discrimination. You'd think we'd be more valuable with all our experience and wisdom and the fact that we're not encumbered by possible pregnancy, little kids to care for, etc. Sad.

depends. discrimination goes on all the time in cetain industries. go to a chain restaurant and tell me if you don't see a token older woman

9:11 am

i am so up to here with grey discrimination.i am a white collar business operator.i am overqualified for any job in the public service industry unless i am running the place.too many middle management type will think i am gunning for their job if i get hired.so i am semi retired

9:12 am

i either fight student for 2 or 3 mcjobs or i start a business of my own again.there is no middle ground it seems

9:15 am

What really aggravates me is that by taking early retirement I'm only allowed to make an additional $15,000 a year on top of it until full retirement age. Why should that matter? That's OUR money, after all. They've earned the interest on it all these years. Really frustrating.

9:16 am

it is mostly the same here,mimi

9:16 am

something like 15 hours a week or a dollar cap

fireworks seemed like a fairly easy grid and btw good morning all!

9:16 am

I thought by this age I'd be done "fighting" about social issues but it's worse now by far than when I was young and I don't have as much energy to fight...but I'm going to anyway. Hey, I grew up in the 60's...we raise hell...that's just what we do!

9:17 am

yaaa for steve!!

9:17 am

though i still have 15 years to go.do not think there will be any money left by the time i cross the finish line

9:18 am

will die in harness as it were

9:18 am

need an office desk/walker combination so we can keep on going which in turn denies kids starting position jobs

9:19 am

I had to take early retirement on the money I earned only since my ex is 1.5 years younger than me. But when he turns 62, my benefits will triple. Oh, let the time fly!!

9:20 am

retirement should be age 50.that way we are in good enough shape to enjoy it and all those positions are open for school graduates.it is a win/win:)

9:21 am

good morning. anyone have a clue for the aq 7 which i know is something to do with watery..?

9:21 am

then just have mentor jobs that do not affect the pension cheque totals and you can work at those as long as you wish

9:21 am

Apparently Germany is much better as far as taking care of its people....someone on Babble mentioned that awhile back. Don't even get me started on the horrible situation with Social Security disability....they deny EVERYONE now. Have been fighting with them for a year and am waiting for the court date to get the back pay....it takes about 15 months to get a court date! Ridiculous. Yes, I agree with you, crossy.

9:22 am

if retirement were 50 the economy would go bankrupt quickly. who can support people from age 50 to 90?????? i dont agree at all.

9:22 am

all of europe is in bad shape economically.

9:22 am

mimi ,it took us TEN years to ram my wifes disability through and she is frigging BLIND

9:22 am

i would prefer a mandatory 30 days of vacation per year. that way you can travel and enjoy every year.

9:22 am

i know mkg.i was being silly there

9:23 am

No, mkg, that money is already funded by US...it isn't a handout.

9:23 am

mimi not sure what you mean. do you mean social security payments?

9:24 am

Yes...retirement funds. And when they're used up, that's it. That money is paid from every paycheck you ever earn.

9:24 am

i remember one case worker said to us when we were about 7 years into it" well,she can still work,i am sure there are braille typists out there"... braille typits?? yea,those blody jobs are up on the frigging board all the time you silly git!

9:25 am

mimi if when used up no more comes then it would be fine. but are these private retirement funds or soc sec? not sure what you mean

9:27 am

Yet we're willing to support illegals and their children and basically encourage poor people to have more children for the benefits. I can't even get Medicaid in Arizona because our law changed and says you can't get it unless you have children!! I HAVE children...they're GROWN and all have degrees...I paid my dues!

9:27 am

i better dive into the grid for a bit.do not want to get me going on odsp/social security disability either

9:27 am

I've got to get going....bye, all. Hugs all around. This time I'm really leaving! ((crossy))

9:27 am

((mimi))

9:29 am

well.should count my blessing,mimi.at least we do not have the US insurance company driven health care system to worry about

9:29 am

One token "older person" in a job place does not actually mean they hire older people. Chances are good that is just a person who has worked there a long time, being phased out. It seems everywhere I go these days, the employee base is young, ignorant and mostly ethnic (employers get government kick backs for that)

9:30 am

cross, you should speak to those who are against socialized medicine.

9:30 am

molly,here a govt job will remain unfilled unless the ethnic/disabled/eldery quota is met..regardless of experience of denied applicants

9:30 am

anyone have aq 7 clue???????????i got watery but dont see the ending of it.

9:32 am

american has sick laws. really sick. molly, my husband works for govt and is so sick of the ridiculous rules and regs that help no one.

9:32 am

but govt jobs are a whole different kettle of fish entirely

9:32 am

This is all going to backfire when an entire generation of people can no longer afford to live at a bare minimum. The upper crust cannot continue to monopolize wealth when the majority of people are in need. It just doesn't work.

9:32 am

Sorry for your wife's plight, Crosshair. Disability definition according to the SSA: "inability to engage in any substantial gainful activity by reason of any medically determinable physical or mental impairment which can be expected to result in death or which has lasted or can be expected to last for a continuous period of not less than 12 months." To further describe cases of blindness: "Blind workers whose vision in the better eye cannot be corrected to better than 20/20 or whose visual field in the better eye, even with corrective lenses, is 20 degrees or less" are considered disabled. Unfortunately loopholes are everywhere and the powers-that-be that have to dish out the money are very protective. Proof that the person seeking disability payments is a "worker" with the above vision criteria should not take 10 years!!!!

9:33 am

my wifes eye DISEASE is non correctable and on good days has 20/400 vision that has not changed in year,yet they made us do the dance for a decade

9:34 am

of course i am sure we are not the only ones who get left dangling on a regular basis

9:35 am

In a nutshell: that is just BS, Crosshair. It is so easy to have payments withheld from our paychecks yet it so difficult to ask for some back even with qualifying circumstances. Proof of a failed system...in my opinion that is.

9:38 am

i think in the u.s. blind people pay much less or no taxes either.

9:38 am

mosy likely they are told to make it hell so only those who are not shamming will have the fortitude to hang in there long enough to get approval

9:38 am

lol,we get fully taxed.have our provincial healthcare plan to pay for.nothing is free even when it is free

9:39 am

but we do not lose homes every time we brak a hip or whatever.working or not, you are covered

9:40 am

any clues for the u words for the u in second row??????

9:45 am

ty for clue.

9:45 am

any other u word clues for the u in second row?

9:45 am

YW

crossy, does the govt pay your mortgage and insurane and utilties wif you break a hip? you just said yo have been fighting for benefits for adiabled person for years...yet you say at least you don't lose your home if you break a hip because you don't have to pay the doctors?

9:54 am

no they do not. provincial health care is exactly that.it pays for your health needs.not for your house,your car or your boat.if you want protection with that you get a supplimentary policy

how can you not lose a mortgaged home if you are not working?

9:56 am

what i mean is you do not run into people who are uninsured for health care and have to pay large medical sums out of pocket

9:56 am

it is not a catch all insurance for everything in you life

'but we do not lose homes every time we brak a hip or whatever.working or not, you are covered"

9:58 am

we are dancing around procedural issues here

9:59 am

people down there get handed crushing medical bills all the time if they are not part of the insurance medial system.if they cannot afford that 300 a month

9:59 am

I JUST CANT GET THE AQ 7! DARN!!!!!!!!!

10:00 am

here you can be working for 20 years,then living on the street for the next 20,you are still covered

10:00 am

sorry mkg.i do not have it

10:01 am

aq7...watery....containing water

Crossy, that is a generalization. have you ever live in the US? i know that people an and do negotiate with heatlh care providers. my family experience and min as well.

10:02 am

11:50 am

hello all ye denizens of babbleland. may i be a chimera of eyore and tigger please?

11:50 am

we just need eeyore in here

11:50 am

11:51 am

:) kate

11:51 am

hello kate

11:51 am

♪♫ thanks

11:51 am

I forgot about tigger

11:51 am

my name is kate too, it throws me off when ppl say hi to other kates!

11:51 am

What do you know, you can make notes, but not punctuation : D

11:52 am

hahah

11:52 am

it might help if I turned on the light

11:52 am

hi ruby, molly, puglet, judi, jzw and pippin :-)

11:53 am

heloo both Kates

11:53 am

*waves to all*

11:53 am

ah, a fellow kate, nice!

11:53 am

But if the ALT keys work, you can use them to make punctuation. What haven't you found yet?

11:53 am

and there\s judi!

11:53 am

the arrows

11:53 am

aw, cmon, menudo not in the dictionary?

11:53 am

i was all excited

11:53 am

my first word today was a 7! all by myself (smug and satisfied)

11:53 am

If one's grass is not clipped, can it not be said that it is unmo5/22???

11:53 am

yay kate!

11:54 am

Wave back to you

11:54 am

< = ALT 60 > = ALT 62

11:55 am

< > thank you again but where are they on an ordinary keyboard

11:56 am

NM, I just found them by looking at my old keyboard

11:56 am

absolutely judi, but i tried it anyway.. ;) it must be the tense... as if you use a (past imperfect??) ending with n instead of ed it will take the un prefix

11:56 am

<loves molly

11:57 am

Above the comma and the period, you have to shift to get them

11:59 am

<--- = ALT 60, ALT 45, ALT 45, ALT 45

11:59 am

From now on, my punctuation will be perfect. Maybe Miss Molly will give me an A.

11:59 am

You always get an A+ in my book, Ruby

12:00 pm

:)

12:04 pm

good night everybody in the 100 acre wood

12:04 pm

((( ruby)))) sweet dreams :)

12:04 pm

The de's and the qu's are vexing today.

12:05 pm

oh dear! i have managed a whole 24 words and have ground to a halt already... back in 5, gonna reset my peepers

12:10 pm

Sage advice: Two words to never say to someone. Calm down. It's dismissive (it implies the person is being irrational) and unhelpful (it dictates feelings). I know so many people who need to hear that.

12:10 pm

oh lord yes!

12:11 pm

Fireworks!

12:12 pm

The modern "calm down" is now known as "slow your roll".

12:13 pm

Oh how I dislike the "trendy phrase of the month".

12:15 pm

congratulations on the FW judi slow your roll???? what does that even mean? <perplexed>

12:15 pm

Suddenly, everyone on the internet is using "da" instead of "the". When did it become cool to look like a linguistic moron?

12:17 pm

And I will shut up now, since I usually get flogged by someone here for voicing an opinion. : X

12:18 pm

hey, nbt and nbs and all my 4s!

12:18 pm

I hate text talk. It's shorthand for morons. "Slow your roll" can mean many things. Calm down, stop talking so fast, slow down, etc. etc. I was just being cheeky. I'm a middle-aged white woman. I'm not hip enough to use such street speak.

12:18 pm

wont be from me! I like learning things--even at this age-lol

12:19 pm

Flogging Molly. That's a name of a band.

12:19 pm

sorry to say I dont get all the text talk meanings

12:21 pm

Back to work for me. See you kids tomorrow! *POINK*

12:21 pm

sorry if I intruded on youre conversation

12:23 pm

not an intrusion puglet, it's nice to have people join in the conversation rather than just lurk... :)

12:25 pm

ths--I ve not been on this site wery long and Iam trying to find out about the members here

12:25 pm

and i'm with molly - i abhor the dumbing down of the english language. my pet peeve is dis- as in dis respect.. to my way of thinking it should be lack of respect... and i'm a freak for correct use of apostrophes

12:26 pm

do you know that if yu click on anyone's icon in the chog (chat log) that many of them will give you a brief bio or sometimes favourite quotes etc.?

12:26 pm

I am far from being correct but I do try--Its been awhile since school days

12:27 pm

no I didnt,but ths I will do that

12:27 pm

I love word games and reading good books and it seems everyday I learn a new word

12:28 pm

may I ask how to get our flag by our icon

12:29 pm

hi all!

12:29 pm

don't let that hold you back puglet. we have quite a few babblers from all over the world. for many, english is not their mother tongue. it is much more about sharing ideas than correcting someoone's spelling, grammar and punctuation. yu will find discussions about it forom time to time because there are many of us that are "wordies". do not be inhibited or intimidated by it.

12:29 pm

hi sue

12:29 pm

Hello usue2

12:29 pm

puglet, if you go pro (pay the $14.95 one-time fee to join the site) then you get to make a profile, which includes your country if you want.

12:30 pm

Some of us go a little overboard on our bios :-) others are quite brief.

12:30 pm

If there is a limit to how much you can put in there I haven't found it yet...

12:30 pm

I did go pro and paid the fee

12:31 pm

hi sue :) reminded that now that i know a bit about computers, i should do something about my profile

12:32 pm

click on "my account" and follow the bouncing ball puglet.. yu may want to start by getting an icon rather than just the gray head sillouette

12:34 pm

you can use pretty much anything as an icon, puglet, but if it's not square it will get distorted

12:34 pm

fjound a fo 6/7 combo... now i'm hungry for choclit and cheese

12:34 pm

lol!! ah I kinda liked being dark and mysterious

12:35 pm

thanks for the imfo--will check into it

12:36 pm

okay, puiglet, it's your profile..you may stay as mysterious as yu choose, but remember, people share more if they know something about you ;) ...and i so know how to spell "you", just a crappy typist, the "o" often gets dropped through poor keyboardinjg skillls

12:36 pm

okay kittens, my migraine has subsided, so i'd better get some things done

12:36 pm

bye kate, see ya friday

12:37 pm

going to go for a bike ride before the rain starts, and then homework and job hunting, and then i can finish the grid tonight

12:37 pm

bye kate!

12:37 pm

and bye to everyone else, at least for a few hours

12:37 pm

big day! i have to build an ark later... ;)

12:37 pm

bye pippin and Kate!

12:38 pm

I will Kate--I was just joking--Im not real great when it comes to the computer yet

12:38 pm

no ark, just trying not to let my unemployment mean that i sit on my duff all day

12:38 pm

oops, I changed my icon but not its description, brb

12:38 pm

lol, pippin is also a kate, i'm still here hogging the chog ;)

12:39 pm

yay for kates

12:39 pm

okay, really, off. later!

12:40 pm

ok, now I feel better :-)

12:40 pm

i have a very good facebook friend as well... we refer to each other as that kate and this kate - totally confuzzles everyone ;)

12:41 pm

nice icon and write-up sue, hadfield's a canuck :)

12:42 pm

Im gonna go try to fix me--hagde1

12:43 pm

found yorkshire for "nothing" go puglet, go!!!! looking forward to yur new and improved profile. i don't even know where you're from

12:45 pm

<--Looking forward to Kate's new icon

12:46 pm

ah, i probably won't change the icon molls, but i do need to revamp the bio, and maybe post a new recipe or something... i rather like my icon - the never-ending choclit box ;)

12:53 pm

Not looking forward anymore

12:54 pm

no time to do a daily icon, and peoople have so much trouble at times, getting the icon to change..

12:55 pm

It's very simple to change your icon and it shows up after you refresh your screen.

12:56 pm

for a while, it was taking a day for the icon to show, or sometimes, some people saw one pic and others another? or it would be in the profile but not the chog??

12:57 pm

Hi Kate and molly

12:57 pm

NEW! CARAMEL BACON STUFFED FRENCH TOAST A breakfast favourite gets a bacon upgrade with a sweet and savoury layer of bacon and white chocolate spread between two thick slices of our fabulous French toast. Then we top it off with caramel sauce and diced bacon. Served with two eggs* cooked to order, two hickory-smoked bacon strips and a side of warm syrup.

1:36 pm

ewww...and this is from a bacon lover

1:37 pm

Here is the tinyurl...needed all the \ns taken out: http://tinyurl.com/cdswzx8

wow,my mad typin skills:(

1:41 pm

after the last non-tiny url addy vanishes,it will clear

1:41 pm

:) there was one that was bacon and carameol french toast with dark and white choclit

1:41 pm

And Kate, only tinyurls work in the chat log. Every time you post another long one, it stretches out the chat log again.

1:42 pm

eew,i just do not like chocolate that much.the mrs however has a big sweet tooth

1:42 pm

yes, molly, but i think they are okay if not running "too long"?

1:42 pm

tinyurl,s now and forever more,amen ,kate;)

1:42 pm

I like bacon. I like chocolate. The two do not mix for me though.

1:43 pm

No, they are not. And they are full of "\n" additions that make it so they don't work when copied and pasted.

1:44 pm

I think SGeek gets the award for longest url pasted into the chat log : D

1:44 pm

ah! i knew it was adding characters to the babbleexpert address, didn't know it did it for everything... thanks!

1:44 pm

just about,but she was only trying to share bacon with me:)

1:46 pm

heck,we still even get the odd jumbo pic in a profile derailing things also

1:46 pm

everyone wants to share bacon with yu crossy ;) tiny tidbit of the day or menu time crossy...

1:47 pm

and i thank you all.i have over 75 recepies involving bacon now:) can always use a few more gems

1:48 pm

did you ever try the bacon pb chocolate chip cookies?

1:48 pm

It's weird about that \n. It must be programmed into the SQL on the new server.

1:49 pm

yes,once dr_g went to the new one,it began

1:49 pm

i have made bacon cupcakes however

1:50 pm

someone was having icon trouble not too long ago...big pic stuff

1:50 pm

1:50 pm

That is just because they did not re-size their icon picture

1:50 pm

this grid is kicking my caboose

1:51 pm

very sticky one, to be sure.. sprite would call it "chewy" ;)

2:09 pm

she's london, so she's right in the direct path as well, there are several large systems that will come at us in waves for about 10 days, the worst of it will be tomorrow though - especially because the temps are going to be very low tomorrow

2:11 pm

2:14 pm

hedonist is a word, but not hedon...

2:14 pm

2:15 pm

2:16 pm

hi again all!

2:21 pm

back hi again sue :) broke down and listed... crossy the skies are now ominously dark - it's here!!!! and what's coming looks even worse in the west sky :( kate's goin gto get VERY wet today

2:22 pm

we had a line of strong storms come through early this morning (around 6), lots of wind

2:22 pm

it's very possible the power will fail here... so good bye - just in case

2:23 pm

suze!!

2:23 pm

i keep forgetting where yu are sue.. and how's frank?

2:24 pm

I'm in northern Illinois, Kate, we are at the cancer center and Frank is getting his 9th long chemo treatment

2:24 pm

he is doing ok, the shot they gave him on Monday seems to have finally stopped the "runs" that he was having

2:25 pm

hi crossy!

Hi everyone

2:27 pm

hi alexis!

2:29 pm

poor frank, so long-suffering. so glad his last scan came back good. so we're all getting the same weather systems.. (for some reason i think yu are further east) hi alexis :)

2:29 pm

they did not start him on cisplatin suze?

2:29 pm

howdy alexis

2:30 pm

no, he's on camptosar instead, crossy

2:30 pm

cisplatin is a possibility if his cancer recurs and becomes resistant to the camptosar

2:30 pm

good,lets hope that is enough

2:31 pm

they have him on erbitux too, which is a monoclonal antibody approved for stage 4 colon cancer

2:32 pm

I think you're east of us, Kate, we are near Chicago

2:32 pm

hi sue, glad to hear that Frank is responding to treatment

2:32 pm

hi bichon!

2:32 pm

yes, so far so good

2:33 pm

i will send him my wolf,suze.he has worked before:)

2:33 pm

i'm right across the niagara river/eastern tip of lake erie form buffalo : what they get we get in the climate dept.

2:34 pm

hi bichon :) explain the wolf crossy?

2:34 pm

hi Kate, crossy

2:35 pm

thanks, crossy! the wolf is his spirit animal so he will appreciate that

2:36 pm

what is the qu 5/15, pls

2:37 pm

I have a qu5/16, bichon, means "sort of" and ends in a vowel

2:37 pm

qu 5/16 prefix for "-ish, "like"

2:37 pm

tyvm sue

2:37 pm

qu*** modo... hunchback

2:38 pm

2:38 pm

2:39 pm

2:39 pm

2:41 pm

the bar is open in the PB, think i'll make a batch of nice boozey cocoa - baileys, grand marnier, peppermint schnapps, or kahlua anyone? ;)

2:42 pm

i bet there's also some fo6 in there!

2:42 pm

there is pippin! 3 different versions, just like in the grid :)

2:43 pm

sorry,kate.my wolf is my animal sprit or totem. my beloved is into shamanisim of a sort and that is what she said mine was many years ago.when i had my cancers i had many wolf related items to focus on to distract myself

2:44 pm

and since he is a cancer killing wolf,i told suze at the start that it would be sent to frank

2:44 pm

ahhhh ! probably one of the reasons i thought yu were native ;) i'm glad he watches over you...and keeps you safe and well!

2:45 pm

And Frank has the wolf as his spirit animal as well, always has - one of those cosmic coincidences...

2:45 pm

hi all....tk I would love a drink!

2:45 pm

oooh, big thnder here now

2:45 pm

howdy cgypsy

2:45 pm

2:47 pm

2:47 pm

do you drink crossy? i hear you making tea a lot...

2:47 pm

i will take a nice chiiled vodka strained through ice with a twist of lime..just wave the vermouth bottle over the glass for a second

2:48 pm

hot chocolate with peppermint schnapps for me!

2:48 pm

tea is my beverage of choice but i do also enjoy a stiff drink now and then

2:48 pm

bond.....jb :)

2:49 pm

man, a drink sounds lovely

2:49 pm

<----- passes the minty hot choclit to sue and an expertly prepared martooni to crossy. taking orders for the rest of yu...

2:50 pm

i'm the snob who drinks the fancy artisanal cocktails, may have to make my own

2:50 pm

if i were home now, i think i would be pouring a very large glass of red wine, as i have no good liqueurs or hot choc. atm...

2:50 pm

a nice tall one.a drink where you can look just over the glass and see the fumes rising into the air

2:51 pm

might be a picky bunch tk, but great tippers!

2:51 pm

:) @ crossy pippin, share a recipe? organic only?

2:51 pm

i'm weird, i prefer savory cocktails, but..

2:52 pm

lol.wine is what i cook with while i wait for the drinks to come

2:52 pm

tequila or gin with muddled cucumber, spicy green chili, and cilantro, with lime and simple syrup

2:52 pm

crossy doing the galloping gourmet imitation ;)

2:52 pm

hehe,i remember him

2:53 pm

or one i like is meyer lemon infused vodka with simple syrup and thyme, like lemonade but better

2:53 pm

that sound reallly good kate! tequila or vodka thugh, not much for gin except in a singapore sling

2:53 pm

i used to like wok with yan

2:53 pm

mmmmm...

2:54 pm

i don't drink gin either, but it was in the original recipe for that drink

2:54 pm

Yan Can Cook! I loved that show.

2:54 pm

he was funny. thre was another one i liked - death by chocolate with marcelle desolniers (sp?).. or the british two fat ladies was excellent!

2:55 pm

Woo-Haa. Picture this ...... Soodle at home this morning, drying the soodle hair, post soodle shower, when she hears the call out on the radio for contestants for a quiz. Soodle enters, and (drumroll ......) Soodle wins!!!! 1,000 euros. One very elated Soodle here this evening!!!

2:55 pm

sounds good 2 me....I now have to go and walk as I told myself I would...bye for now :)

2:55 pm

another one i had this weekend was jasmine infused vodka with ginger beer, pomegranate molasses, and i forget what else but it is delightful

2:55 pm

nice, soodle!

2:56 pm

now,ginger beer and vodka may be nice,but keep your jasmine

2:56 pm

great news soodles !!!! very happy for you :-))

2:56 pm

yay soodle!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

2:56 pm

Damn! Who are you doing at the radio station? This is the second time you have won one of their contests.

2:56 pm

wow!! yaaa for soodles 1000 euros!!

2:57 pm

bye gypsy molly came out of lurk mode ;)

2:57 pm

lime was the other thing - it's a take on a moscow mule

2:57 pm

As for organic cocktails, I'll pass. It's liquor. The more you dress it up, the less it tastes like liquor.

2:57 pm

i see that norther ireland uses the pund still,soodles.must be a pain when travelling

2:57 pm

pound

2:57 pm

is soodles going out for a celebratory dinner this evening?

2:58 pm

see, i'm not a huge fan of the flavor of most liquors, but i love finding flavors that are blended and balanced beautifully

2:58 pm

Ahem, I don't lurk. I just got home from work.

2:59 pm

sigh. i don't want to write a cover letter, or do chemistry homework

2:59 pm

I like to do that with cooking Pip, but I prefer my liquor straight.

3:00 pm

but i want to get a job and have an A in chemistry, so i guess i have to earn it

3:00 pm

yup,i agree,molly,i mostly take booze the way it comes.do not wish to bruise the alcohol by tossing things at it

3:01 pm

no slight intended molly, i love lerkerz, forgot yu were at work ;)

3:01 pm

I switch radio stations, Molls!!! Beam on Soodle-face all day long!! Now I can get my poor little car serviced, I cn replace my banjaxed dishwasher, and pay for my youngest's debs (prom) tickets!!

3:01 pm

oh, but the bruising adds depth to the falor!

3:01 pm

I hate cover letters. Hi, I'm so wonderful! You will love me! I'm perfect for your job! Love me! Loooovvvee mmeeee!!!

3:01 pm

er, flavor, that is

3:02 pm

rofl @ molls

3:02 pm

Oh so you're doing someone at ALL the radio stations. Good plan.

3:02 pm

yeah, i'm bad at bragging, and i'm basically well overqualified for everything i'm applying to lately as i'm trying to get into a new field, so nobody really takes me seriously

3:03 pm

nice one molly

3:04 pm

14. If it has tires or testicles it's gonna give you trouble.

3:04 pm

And what sucks is that your years of experience in one field means jack shit to an employer in another field so you are just lumped in with the entry level people.

3:05 pm

rotten pippin, and changing careers is difficult at the best of times...

3:05 pm

<Thinking........ I SHOULD start 'doing' somebody in a radio station. Maybe I have a face for radio.......

3:06 pm

lol@ love the alternate on tits or tyres hehe

3:06 pm

*Tries to figure out how to break it gently to Soodle that you need a VOICE for radio, not a face*

3:07 pm

The defence rests, Molly!!!!

3:07 pm

sorry,that was crass.i should of thought that out more and said boobies

3:09 pm

No apologies needed for me. I prefer tits over boobies any day.

3:09 pm

george carlin had a little something to say about "tits".. remember the 7 words yu can't say on television? soodles is going to spend some of her winnings on the car... that was from her profile

3:09 pm

funnys soodles,we wanted to visit the giants causeway while there and that is the first time we found out that we may need both the euro and the pound

Anyone have a clue for the aq? It's making me nuts!

3:13 pm

Sheesh, Crossy. Don't get me started! We live on a tiny island on the Western extremities of Europe. One would imagine that that we could all live in harmony. Sadly 800 years of history precludes that. :-(

3:14 pm

have faith soodles, at least yu do not live in the koreas....

3:15 pm

Golly, Kate! Sometimes I wonder!

3:15 pm

it is getting better, not the 70's any more...

3:45 pm

3:45 pm

Glad to hear Mrs is coping well.

3:46 pm

many wo 5/20 are not fo 4/8 of blind dates. they can be en 7/52 with anxiety. last week, i left my ho 5/14 to meet the friend of a friend at a local bistro. when he "sh 5/14" up, i was pleasantly surprised. he was well- en 7/52 with charm, and had the niceest shade of gray hair; like as 5/12 had been combed through it! sartorially, he was well turned out, wearing blue su 5/14 sh 5/12 that matched his eyes. we us 4/6 the first few minutes to peruse the me 4/6, there were several tasty items to choose from, and the ha 6/24 sounded very savoury, but instead, we ordered the fo 6/33 - this would give us something to distract us if conversation lagged. fjor dessert ( hint) we had pie a la mo 4/6. when the bill came, he ow 4/9 the waitress a generous tip for serving us so well. we left the fu 4/9s on the table and left. taking a walk down to the beach we passed a rather large sand du 4/6, it made me think we were going into the de 6/21. i must qu 5/18 this story, as it is almost closing time here...

3:46 pm

oh,weight wise? cannot be bothered atm.family members are dropping like flies.we have no time.spend all our lives organizing funerals or cremation:((

3:47 pm

5:05 pm

5:06 pm

5:06 pm

hi phaeton

5:07 pm

fellow asaragus lover...yay !!

5:07 pm

asparagus even...lol

5:07 pm

i couldn't eat lamb as the bairn and i spent most of today at a farm with newborn lambs :)

5:08 pm

i love asparagus smores.but hubby and the bairn doesn't

5:08 pm

lol...that would make it a little rough :)

5:08 pm

my youngest doesnt like it either..my older and me love it

5:09 pm

yes, but we did have lamb last week and probably will next week after i've stopped watching lamb cam

5:09 pm

L, do not make the mistake of not eating asparagus just because your people don't like it. Buy enough for yourself and fix the heathens something else.

5:09 pm

*oldest..cant type tonight

5:10 pm

lol...Molly..yep that's what I do

5:10 pm

the lamb cam we've been watching is the same farm we went to today and it was the busiest i've ever seen it.there were 200 people on coaches and that was without cars

5:10 pm

5:10 pm

i think it's like broccoli, you either like it or not

5:10 pm

hi all

5:11 pm

I give up. maybe better tomorrow/ goodnight all

5:11 pm

Hey phae :)

5:11 pm

I listen to women say "I love broccoli, but I never fix it because my husband doesn't like it" and look at them like they are from Mars. Who died and made him King of Dinner?

5:13 pm

night night good luck all....poof

5:13 pm

Exactly. Why deprive yourself of something you like just because HE doesn't like it?

5:13 pm

i don't like broccoli anymore molly.i loved it before i was pregnant and then i went off it but i still eat it as i know it's goo d for me.i think you can mix veg in allsorts of things and people will eat them and 9 times out of ten they won't even know they are eating it

5:14 pm

i do the same smores

5:15 pm

there is one thing i won't eat that hubby and bairn do and that is salmon.i've tried it so many ways and just can't stand the taste apart from tinned with vinegar

8:12 pm

8:13 pm

feud

8:13 pm

well, hello everyone - what an entrance!

8:19 pm

hi welki

8:19 pm

lots of fo6 in the pb today

8:22 pm

hi pip

8:24 pm

slow chat night

8:24 pm

i'm in and out

8:24 pm

hi kids

8:25 pm

happens with smallish grids sometimes

8:25 pm

hi, dawg

8:26 pm

how's it going, welki?

8:28 pm

thinking. how's it going. hmmm - i've been so busy, i don't know! *LOL*

8:29 pm

just started a compressed work week, so i'm trying to get used to longer days (even though there are fewer of them)

8:30 pm

wishing the weather would stabilize (ha)

8:30 pm

grateful i have a husband who picks up the slack when i'm pooped - and that's about it, dawg :)

8:31 pm

compressed week...ugh. but more time to play? weather stablizing...uhm...and that would be when?

8:31 pm

yay for supportive husband!

8:32 pm

yaaa for crossy the supportive husby!

8:33 pm

i now have three day weekends every week, so that's nice - and when holidays fall on a monday, i get tuesdays as a lieu day (more fishing)

8:33 pm

as far as the weather stabilizing, i can only hope it's soon

8:33 pm

a woman who loves to fish is a jewel indeed;)

8:34 pm

my husband thinks the same, crossy. now if only i could learn to like golf

8:35 pm

a woman who loves to fish rates right up there with a woman who' s daddy owns a distellery

8:35 pm

wowsa - i'll have to quote you (when the time is right).

8:36 pm

hehe

8:37 pm

if he's golfing, i can take the boat out - or i can fish from the dock. (so i really don't see much purpose in trying to like it more than the teeny bit i do - even the pro i took lessons from told me not to bother *lol* - but i do go out with him a couple of times a year, just to see if a miracle has happened :)

8:38 pm

all pro fishermen know that the biggest fish of the day will ALWAYS be caught by new or inexperienced fisherpersons

8:38 pm

we picked up an ancient golf cart for cheap last year - looks like a mini brinks truck

8:39 pm

size does matter :)

8:39 pm

lol it does indeed.,thats why we went with the metric system because 162 cm always sounds much better than 14 inches

8:40 pm

would love to spend time in your neck of the woods - spectacular sport fishing

8:41 pm

the only thing we measure the old way is beer and bra sizes because beer will always be in pints and lord help us,bra sizes will foevermore be in inches

8:41 pm

but the grass is always greener. i live about 5 minutes from one of the best trout rivers in the world - and an hour from mountain lakes and streams

8:42 pm

it's not the inches, crossy, but the cup size. you've been out of the loop for a long time, your memory's shot

8:42 pm

we have salmon,lakers,splake,browns and northern all within five minutes of where i sit

8:43 pm

and you have four seasons - i miss the fall

8:43 pm

been married 20 years would not be able to do anything even if kylie monoge came down on a golden charit awith a sign around her neck saying "give it to me big daddy"

8:43 pm

chariot

8:44 pm

nor should you want to - you and elegant are a match

8:44 pm

minogue(sp)

8:44 pm

she is the best of who i am

8:44 pm

meh - i know what you meant :)

8:45 pm

that's a lovely complement to both of you, crossy

8:45 pm

i am her fool,i do anything just to hear her laugh,to see that twinkle in here eye,to make her comfotable as she drifts off to sleepmto stroke her cheep as i ease her pain

8:46 pm

that's beautiful crossy

8:46 pm

you two sure have been through a lot together

8:46 pm

i would shed blood for her.i would stand in front of whatever threatened

8:46 pm

compliment...urgh. tired eyes and monkeys

8:47 pm

she has saved my life as much as i have saved hers

8:48 pm

and now with all her family dying aroudn her,i stand with her:(

8:48 pm

psst, dawg - think of chat as conversation. i doubt you'd notice the difference between complement/compliment in spoken conversation

8:48 pm

rough time for her, crossy :(

8:48 pm

i just roll with it.crossy is not grammar nazi

8:49 pm

zackly

8:51 pm

even after 20 years,crossy loves being married:))))

8:52 pm

though she hogs the covers:((

8:53 pm

and is a pita about night time ear tickles to send her off to sleep:))

8:53 pm

hehehe - whatever works

8:58 pm
