1:30 am

Iam so glad for you

1:30 am

no no, not blast, bust!

1:30 am

are you overly tires

1:30 am

tired

1:30 am

glad gl** that it's over

1:30 am

ahhh--

1:32 am

how is your dog doing

1:32 am

he was pretty much healed up, but he re-opened the hot spot yesterday and he hated my son

1:33 am

doorbell

1:35 am

is there a reason he dosent like your son?

1:56 am

"helloo, helloo" seems to be an echo...echo....echo

1:57 am

Why HELLO Rose! I was just thinking about you.

1:58 am

bored were you, puglet?

1:59 am

heehee, looked up and thought you were psychic, pug, my name's Rose, too... Hi, g'rose!

1:59 am

giggles---no---hadent talked or seen you here for a few days and was wondering how you were doing and how the stress was

1:59 am

if i could only get the fibromyalgia under control...*sigh*the stiffness and pain are friving me nuts...short drive, i know. lol

1:59 am

well hi Rose2

2:00 am

hey rbud. how are the both of you?

2:00 am

Iam doing great right at this time

2:01 am

puglet, mother mac home, extremely institionalised...not helped by the fact DH has given her a wireless bell to push when she requires assistance. my own mother has admitted herself to full-time care in a nursing home only 15 minutes from me.

2:02 am

we( the sibs and i ) now have the task of cleaning out the old family home, in order to sell it.

2:03 am

hello, Im back

2:03 am

{{rose}}

2:03 am

oh, wow, mother mac still around and problematic? I feel for you. (((hugs)))

2:03 am

ahhh-that puts more stress on you

2:03 am

{{{ruby}}} my dear friend. still waiting for some pics of herself. any available?

2:04 am

how many sib do you have Rose

2:04 am

thanx for the hugs rbud....she is only 94....

2:04 am

yes, Rose, finally. My son helped me with the computer

2:04 am

and h ello rbud

2:04 am

have 4 brothers, and all are married. i have taken a huge step back, and am letting them run the whole show.

2:05 am

thats good isnt it> You got enough on your plate

2:06 am

I'll send you a reporyt on the visit, Rose, if I never hear another word of "baby talk" I'll be v ery happy. All I can say is that it's Lucky they don't have children!

2:07 am

Ruby Iam sorry your visit didnt go so well

2:08 am

I was really looking forward to it, too.

2:09 am

yes I knew you were

2:09 am

yes, puglet it is good. these guys need to understand just what is involved with taking on the full-time care of a geriatric. one of the bro's is in a snit because we have encouraged mum to go into full-time care. but i didn't see him standing there with the welcome mat out, to take her into his home.

2:10 am

yoou are so right, Rose, let them do their share for a change, t sounds like you are always the one who does everything

2:10 am

unless you've done it you dont know what t takes to take on that job

2:10 am

awww, ruby, such a shame. probably will be a long whiles before you see him again. so sorry, hun. sons can be such a handful, even in the best of times.

2:11 am

and my sweet lovely boy terrified him and would recoil every time John tried to touch him. Doggs sense so much

2:12 am

sweetovely boy = Ruffino!

2:13 am

*giggle* took mother mac to see a specialist physician, a doctor i had worked with many ye4s ago. he knew my hubby(her son) was primary carer, but insisted that, at least on his records, i was the primary carer.

2:13 am

control-freak son = John

2:13 am

Families can be so wonderful of a blessings and such a heartache too--lol

2:14 am

only 14 words left, but all I see are vowels

2:14 am

ahhh, explains a lot, ruby. poor ruffino, he knows you are the alpha dog...and here was another, in the same pack...must have confused ruffie so much.

2:15 am

Iam down to 15 and I keep starring at this grid hoping a word will pop out--lol

2:17 am

cn't find the lower y, the middle t and the i

2:18 am

Rose, I got my rosebush planted and its already got some newness coming out on it!

2:18 am

ye4, 12 months

2:19 am

slap me with a shark!

2:19 am

ty4, ty = DOUBLE VOWEL

2:19 am

IT5, IT + NOT HIM

2:19 am

sorry for yelling

2:20 am

yay, puglet

2:20 am

thank you rose, now I only have 10 left and nbt

2:20 am

yelling is good.....

2:20 am

ty --got em both

2:21 am

*giggle* ruby

2:22 am

I', not a yeller, but at one point I spoke VERY sharply to my son, really rare for me

2:22 am

puglet, you remember i pruned my cecil brunner, hard, a month or 2 back?

2:22 am

I got fed up with his ridicule nd sarcasm

2:23 am

yes Rose

2:23 am

well, it's gone ballistic....again...i need to prune it again, before it goes dormant for the winter.

2:23 am

Ruby is that your only child

2:23 am

when you prune, so you go all the way down, or leave a certain number of growth points

2:24 am

awww, ruby....was it all directed at you personally, or some at your life-style?

2:24 am

thats wonderful

2:24 am

yes, puglet, he is, his father is, my husband is, my sister's husband is and her son is. And they are all somewhat like that

2:25 am

ruby, first pruning i leave lowest possible growth points, as the first pruning is at the end of summer.

2:25 am

at how crazy I am about dog care, stuff like that. He's the "expert" but has never had a dog

2:26 am

I'll havve to remember that in the fall, Rose, s my rose bushes are ll sort of cock-eyed

2:26 am

(I keep missisng the elusive a with my pinkie)

2:27 am

aaah, husband is back

2:27 am

do you have harsh winters there rose

2:28 am

lol, ruby, try taking a pinch of salt, hun. experts who are only text book perfect, do not count. sweetie, you are the expert on the care of your dogs...not him. try imagining you are inside a bubble made of the same perspex as riot shields....you can see his lips flapping, but you can't he4 the words. just grunt every 5 seconds or so.

2:28 am

is that good or bad Ruby--lal

2:29 am

thats funny rose--hehe

2:29 am

puglet, not harsh in the way you probably mean. we don't have snow in my part of australia, well not a lot anyway. but we do have 'cold snaps'. where the temperature drops rapidly.

2:29 am

Im gonna try that with hubby when he acts like that

2:30 am

yay, puglet. it's what i do whenever my mother is in my vicinity. life is so much easier.

2:33 am

our weather right now is on a yoyo fling---Up and down--be glad when it settles down into a steadier stream

2:36 am

I can not figure out that darn W--Ive look in the dict. and still cant find it--uuggg

2:37 am

yeah, puglet. same here. on his side of the bed, DH has 2 blankets and a quilt, on my side just the 2 blankets. DH in warm night attire, and me in shorties.

2:38 am

puglet, how's your classic reading. wu6, wu****ing heights

2:38 am

ty ty ty--got it

2:39 am

lol, so pleased, puglet

2:41 am

back, it wasn't husband

2:41 am

it's like what Sprite says "Tal to my hand, my head is tired"

2:42 am

talk*

2:42 am

be back in a bit gotta get coffee

2:43 am

see you later rose and will send some pix and a letter sometime today

2:44 am

*giggle* see you later perhaps, my friend

2:45 am

np's puglet...caffeine always a good thing

2:46 am

Got to have it in the morns--lol

2:48 am

after a week end of rain its going to be sunny and in the low 70's today! Get to get out and do some outdoor things--yahoo!

2:48 am

right with you sister...cannot function until i have had my caffeine. lol.

2:54 am

Rose--hate to leave you all alone but I got some things to attend to--have a wonderful evening and day--God Bless you in every minute of it==catch ya later--bye bye

2:56 am

puglet, np's...enjoy your day, sweetie

I have cu6, hi6, ji6, li6 x2 and th6, what 2 am I missing?

Got the wu6 now just missing one?

5:54 am

ci6, marc

Got it thanks

5:58 am

{{annie}}

5:58 am

I was hoping that you were stl here.

5:59 am

John and DIL are gone, another day of them would have done me in!

6:00 am

ruby, Im back. In the kitchen getting coffee. How was the visit or do I get it from your chat? How long were they there?

6:03 am

Fortunately, the visit was pretty short, only 4 days, but it wasnt fun. John has turned into his father which largely explains why I got my divorce.

6:03 am

I was really looking forward to it and I am sad and relieved that it's over.

6:04 am

It's hard to take. Were they able to help you in other ways.

6:04 am

John helped a little with the computer, but not enough, an they both helped a little with kitchen chores.

6:05 am

That is something. I am sure it was nice to see John, you get to see him so rarely. Are they supportive?

6:06 am

The two of them are experts on absolutely everything e.g. health (she's an anaemic vegetarian and he is waaaay too fat)|

6:07 am

and Burt fell yesterday, just adding to the woefullness of the (rainy) weekend

6:08 am

Oh dear. Did he hurt himself? How was Burt with John and dil? I love experts, they know everything!

6:09 am

I thin Burt is OK but his head hit the pavement. He was able to get u0, so I guess he's OK

6:10 am

That's quite a fall. Did he complain of a headache? What is your dil's name?

6:10 am

can you imagine, John was giving me dog advice, how they should be trained, etc. He's never owned a dog! I finally blew up at him very rare for me, and told him tht he didn't know sh** about dogs, especially chows

6:11 am

John's wife is Denise and she's an uneducated expert as well. Her shtick is vitamine -- for everything and everybody

6:12 am

she takes many vitamins but is always sick, so go figure.

6:12 am

Good for you. There's a limit on being stepped upon. Sometimes it is better to let off steam. LOL, I also have a friend who is an expert on vitamins, takes the entire alphabet.

6:12 am

like Denise, LOL

6:12 am

Less vitamins, more food?

6:13 am

I just read that calcium suppléments actually increase the risk of heart disease. Why not just drink some milk everyday?

6:13 am

they're a couple made in heaven; I'm just gl** they didn't have kids!

6:14 am

How are Ruffie and Raffie? Are they still best friends? I only take Vit. D and a regular vitamin tablet.

6:15 am

I buy sterilized milk (just because it tastes better) but also because it has added D. The fresh milks here don't. And whenever there's any sun, I go outside and bake

6:16 am

Rufie has more hot spots and Rafie looks like a monster with her wet chesdt, but if it ever gets warm enough I'll try to bathe her and get some kind of bib around her neck

6:16 am

No sun here today. It's early..7:15am but it is drizzling. I thought you had trimmed Raffie..the doggie monster.

6:17 am

they are adorable together, but whenever they would jump on each other, J and D would say "bad dog". How stupid is that? I f Rufe wnted to Hurt Raffie, she'd alredy be dead

6:17 am

What do you mean..Rufie has "hot spots"?

6:17 am

I trimmed her but not enough and she looks ridiculous. Hopefully she'll grow out of the problem

6:18 am

Dogs do jump on each other. They are playing. It's a good thing J & D do not have dogs. They would be neurotic.

Could I get a clue for tu5/12 I have the one with two constanants followed by two vowels, please?

6:18 am

Yes, he had them last spring (which was how vet and I found Ruby's hert problem) and he has them again. He bites himself to the point of bleeding and is on antibiotics (yet again) and steroids.

6:19 am

marc, same 4 letters followed by sometimes vowel

6:19 am

hi Marc

6:19 am

Poor Rufie.

6:20 am

I think whatever dynamics exist between the dogs, it will all work out. Most of the time, Raffie just follows him around and it's adorable

Wouldn't that give the word too may points. I have the tu5/16 it is the other tu5/12 that I need

6:21 am

and she has practically double in size in less than a month

6:21 am

tu5/12 same first letters but ends with a vowel

6:21 am

Marc, just went to the list. I do not have the first tu 5/12

hi ruby, sorry you had to go through such a hard time. I don't know the characters involved but I can tell you from my experience, know-it-alls are usually pretty insensitive and not pleasant to be around.

6:22 am

and when Raffie would bite (puppy bites, no big del) they would both try to discipline her. All very annoying

6:23 am

Marc it ends with a vowel..try starting from a different T.

6:23 am

Hello, All :-)

6:23 am

Hi zooz, havent seen you for a while

6:24 am

Rufie is so sweet that when the puppy bites him, he just lets her, even when she grabs his ankles (or worse)

6:24 am

{{zoozz}}

6:24 am

I have been here..just stealth mode :-)

6:24 am

an "worse" happens quite a lot! lol

Does it end with two vowels?

6:25 am

Ends in third vowel.

6:25 am

No just the one.

6:25 am

no, marc, same first 4 letters and then a vowel on the end

Finally got it thanks

6:26 am

YaY..nice one.

6:27 am

down to 8, but need a nap. See you later kids

6:27 am

wow...pathetic little gird

6:28 am

8:55 am

Good morning all

8:55 am

oh it was fun. . .as fun as listen to 400 names can be. . .

who graduated?

8:56 am

Mark Shriver, Sargent Shriver's son was the speaker and he gave a nice address.

8:56 am

me TO . . . .

i did not know that. did you post on fb?

8:57 am

there was much interesting talk abt jmc's graduation and work yest a.m.

congratulations.

8:57 am

then we did our own group thing and at it two of my friends gave a blessing in which they described people in the class and at one point they said and we even have a member who refuses to let us know that her real name is. . . .jasmine esmerelda. . . .

8:58 am

and i jumped up and shouted "no" in shock and pointed at them. . . (I go by my initials J. E. everywhere). . ..

8:58 am

the class loved it. . .

is that really you?

8:59 am

ty TO a few pictures have been posted on FB

8:59 am

no that is what my SIL calls me so it was all in good fun...

9:00 am

then we went up front and the profs called us each at a time and talked about us and then we sat down. . .

9:00 am

if that is your full name, your parents were wonderful! How they lived having you.

9:01 am

this mexican lawyer and i were the last two standing and she said--they saved the lawyers for last. . . i don't want to be standing up here all alone. . .

9:01 am

I meant loved, maybe lived through is correct? anyway, congrats

nice that the school was small enough to have that relationship

9:03 am

and i can't get any more from this grid gotta dump my suitcase and start over, heading for old Fnglish haunts this afternoon

9:03 am

personally i would have loved standing up last but they called me and i took her hand and had here walk down with me since she didn't want to stand alone. . . the words were said about me and then i was to do the gauntlet of the profs who hugged everyone else and at the first one i said. . .no I am maintaining my no hugs rule (because two of them were new and i didn't know them at all--I hate hugging stangers)

9:03 am

have fun round. . .

9:04 am

read around the typos in that last one. . .

have a nice trip, rb

9:05 am

so i never heard from you TO so i assumed you decided not to come down to the Kennedy Center?

9:05 am

one thing I like abt you jmc is you give details and then yr thoughts on the details. Now gotta see what shriveled something I can eat from the frij

9:06 am

haha others wish i wold not be so loquacious!

9:08 am

and thankyou, all, I could write a whole book on Babble chat--some series of exchanges are worth preserving. Well next time should I live that long. while i'm gone read my books--pull up roundbarnstories on the web--nobody comments much on bks tho some do in the profiles.

9:08 am

well i think i have found what i can find in a quick minute. . .i am off to run errands. . . .bbl

I've been at it a bit longer, but I still need to many to be cluing. But thanks!

10:30 am

10:58 am

Hi stid! Hi TO!

10:58 am

thinking of me? whyfore? :)

thinking i missed your outfits blog. scored something interesting yesterday. too interesting and too chap to pass up, youknow?

and of course had not seen you in ages.

11:08 am

i hear ya! i havent updated my blog in ages -- i think it's been almost 2 years?

11:09 am

been thinking about dusting it off, but it's tough to wrestle up the needed energy!

11:11 am

i still READ tons of them daily, though. a girls gotta get her inspiration somewhere. :)

sorry, i had to go downstairs. i was at Shadest and got a vintage dress with a very artistic watercoloish fish print

and what's with your energy?

11:20 am

taking the photos, editing them, writing the entries...it all takes a sort of mental energy that im not sure i have anymore! i used to have a lot of down-time at work, so i would do a lot of it here, but i dont have that anymore.

yes, i guess it did . you made it look effortless.

and i can relate to the work being more busy thing

11:23 am

well, thanks. :) it certainly was fun for a little while...but then i felt like i had to dress a certain way or buy things so things were always new. like i couldnt wear the same thing more than once. and i felt like i had to post just about every day.

11:24 am

clue for the w please

11:24 am

ive been thinking of digging it back up, but if i did, i would create myself a posting schedule and have themes. so it wouldnt be as much work.

yes, i can understand that. i think you would like the fish dress.

1:49 pm

crossys thought of the day: every single tech support number i have called has asked me to press #2 if i wished my call to be handled in english,so why do they always connect me with someone who cannot? i just had to ask fro a different tech support worker three times till i was able to glean enough info out them ( that is the H.P tech support line)

1:49 pm

yaa for lillian!

1:52 pm

ty crossy and i know what you mean. if we ever phone our bank or other companies we end up speaking to people in india. i have nothing against indian people as some of my friends are from there but they can't understand our accent.alot of english can't understand the geordie accent :)

1:52 pm

no matter anyways.after one year with this new lap top,4 hard drives,2 optical drives,2 screens and one keyboard replacement under warranty,the warranty expires next month and i can turn the thing into what it was obvoisly designed to do best...be a door stop

2:01 pm

Just looked at a video (video jug) from Gareth Jameson (sp?) that teaches how to use a Geordie accent. Wow. It has a lot in common with some Canadian speech, and some of our Northern U.S. accents too.

2:18 pm

hi all, this is a tough grid for me. I do not like small grid. Lots of blank tiles

2:18 pm

2:20 pm

hey mcurl - no school?

2:22 pm

did you get that costume sorted out?

on my lunch

that would be a no on the costume.....nearly strangled daughter yesterday!

2:22 pm

ah, lunch! I had a yogurt and a muffin left over from breakfast...

I had a pop tart and a milky way!

2:23 pm

oh, sewing projects can be awfully fractious

2:23 pm

I think mine was (marginally) healthier...

2:23 pm

but of course I am not "running laps" in a classroom on a regular basis any more, so it's kind of hard to justify any extra calories!

her vision and my understanding are hundreds of miles apart; my suggestions are met with "I just don't see it!" Finally told her to just put the girl in the dress and figure it out. I needed to go home (8:30pm) and still had to do the grocery shopping I had attempted to do since this started last wednesday!

2:26 pm

good for you -- sometimes it's hard to communicate a three-dimensional idea to a two-dimensional person.

2:26 pm

Mother and I used to have interesting conversations when we sewed together. I could "see" the rotations to make the fabric drape "just so" and she couldn't. We were both frustrated sometimes.

she would be the 3D and I'm the 2! I could see what I wanted it to do but I just couldn't get it there

2:27 pm

:-D

2:28 pm

well, down to 7 and I have to head out. Tom is almost done with his sandwich. (((peri and mcurl))) good luck with this grid. I'll be back later I hope to finish!

well friends, thus my lunch time draws to a close and I must go impart my mathematical genius onto the unsuspecting 1st graders! Later....*poof*

HOLY MOLY! Just got a text and she says "I think you were right!" Red Letter Day, mark the calendar; happy dance around the building whoo hooo!

3:06 pm

woo hoo I am DONE. Not often I get to say that :)

3:55 pm

Hello all..

4:03 pm

nbt/nbs and 21 left...

4:10 pm

can someone tell me exactly what a" Geordie" accent is and where it is spoken? i have seen this referenced twice now and i have never heard of it before

4:11 pm

New to me too crossy...

4:13 pm

<---!!FW!!

4:13 pm

yaa for jilly!!

4:14 pm

Whatcha need crossy...I did list today

4:15 pm

4:15 pm

oops...

4:16 pm

Have to run an errand, so only have 5 minutes, but can come back later...

4:17 pm

i need one l, one t, a pair of t,s,one c,two more t,s, two j,s, 3 l,s and a single h

4:17 pm

so the t,s are really holding me back

4:18 pm

i have th 5/12 th 6/21 and tu 5/12 and tu 5/12

4:19 pm

there are two tu5/12, one with a double matching vowel ending, the other one with double cross consonants in center and vowel ending

4:19 pm

Whioops, misread, tu 5/16=same as the 5/12 but with sometimes vowel ending

4:20 pm

there are two th5/12's, one greek and the other an number

4:21 pm

but i gotta poof for now..bbl

4:29 pm

Straight from the internet...dictionary definitions of a Geordie typically refer to "a native or inhabitant of Newcastle upon Tyne, England, or its environs”, an area that encompasses North Tyneside, Newcastle, South Tyneside and Gateshead.

4:32 pm

I'm not deeply interested in linguistics so I had to look it up.

4:46 pm

<----Loves linguistics! (Just call me Henry Higgins). Paul Gasgoine famous soccer player had a typical Geordie accent. Hi everybody. :-)

4:48 pm

<---More like uncouth Eliza Doolittle

4:49 pm

Aitches getting dropped all over the place.......

4:56 pm

First time I've logged on today. Thought with only 46 words, it wouldn't be too bad...

5:00 pm

Wicked little thing.

5:03 pm

I heard that someone finished it in 4 minutes. Wowza.

5:03 pm

Wow!

5:05 pm

I can type pretty fast, but there are some words in this grid that it would take me longer than 4 minutes to figure out.

5:05 pm

hey all -- down to 4.

5:08 pm

5:11 pm

LOL if no one needs clues I should go take a nap. Busy day today and tomorrow will work if I get a call... *poof*

5:14 pm

I'm almost afraid to ask what the husband is attempting.

5:15 pm

It started as a fix for the hole in the wall in my closet that he put in in an attempt to find the kitten.

5:16 pm

Now it has become a complete closet remodel...

5:21 pm

Oh no, this kind of thing never turns out well.

clues for t please?

tute

tute

sotrry

sorry

5:23 pm

Add another vowel to that.

5:28 pm

When Hubs does things like this, it usually turns out well.

6:51 pm

Hi crossy. We are having a beautiful spring day with high skies and breezes.

6:52 pm

was a nice ,though overcast day here

6:52 pm

Lovely here, sunny and in the 70s

6:52 pm

take your meds like a good girl ,suze

6:52 pm

Sometimes medicine works. It is like voodoo but more expensive.

6:52 pm

supposed to be in the upper 70s for the next couple of days then back into the 50s

6:52 pm

Glad your days were good, gee 70 degrees so so far off for us!

6:53 pm

well, I don't know, gmere, my insurance covers medicines but not voodoo :-)

6:53 pm

hi again

6:54 pm

howdy,smores

6:54 pm

Well, I think voodoo will be included once the national medical plans get into effect. Or maybe it is the optional prayer policy. Sometimes it is included.

6:54 pm

all my favorite ladies popping in for a visit:))

6:54 pm

hi smores!

6:54 pm

These days I'm thinking voodoo is better and cheaper than what is referred to as "medicine".

6:54 pm

Oh, Crossy, you are just a chick magnet!

6:54 pm

heya crossy, sue :)

6:55 pm

<---Except this one

Hi Sue

6:56 pm

Hi molly, are your polarities switched?

6:57 pm

6:57 pm

No polarities switched. Just not a big believer in insurance driven medicine.

6:57 pm

6:57 pm

Ah, don't get me started on insurance companies.

7:00 pm

From Babble to Bones. And all on a medical note.

7:00 pm

It's not about who is better, the US or Canada. But that is where it always seems to land here. I should have just made a comment about puppies or kitties.

7:00 pm

7:01 pm

10:02 pm

10:02 pm

10:03 pm

10:05 pm

ty

10:09 pm

ar5.10

10:09 pm

found it. . . stupid word

10:09 pm

ty jilly

10:10 pm

I have same sentiment about the tu words...

10:11 pm

hard to argue against that sentiment. . .

10:12 pm

Well, are all the taxes done now jmc? Can you breath?

10:12 pm

wow this grid is a mix of the really simple and the really stupid. . .

10:12 pm

And the really strange...

10:13 pm

i was including the strange under the stupid category but am will for it to have a category of its own. . .

10:14 pm

And we can always include the undefined category...

10:14 pm

i am now getting calls from clients who forgot to give me information for their 2011 returns and the IRS has taken umbrage. . . and dealing with the returns the IRS has rejected. . .but things are less hectic

10:14 pm

true true

10:15 pm

Yeaouch!!

10:16 pm

step on something jilly?

10:17 pm

My son had an incident like that, he and his then estranged wife, now the ex, decided they should file together to get a better return. She failed to report income...my son got stuck with that.

10:17 pm

No, jmc, just reliving that nightmare

10:17 pm

yes. . .it is often an honest error but it sucks anyway

10:18 pm

I did note that you did not put forgot in quotes

10:18 pm

no, most of my clients intend to do their best with their returns. . .if i suspect otherwise they are no longer my clients. . .

10:20 pm

i think i always forget it5 because it is such a stupid word. . .

10:20 pm

WE got royally screwed this year. With hubby's settlement for disability, the SS adjustments gave him a $25,000 check. Between that and the cost of the tax preparer, $5000.

10:21 pm

yikes!

10:21 pm

I agree, that and the rh4/5

10:21 pm

I agree jmc....what about 'fixed income' does not translate?

10:21 pm

ty i hadn't thought of the rh4/5 yet. . .

10:22 pm

did you not have medical expenses to deduct?

10:22 pm

Not this year, sadly. But next year should be better. We are filling quarterly.

10:23 pm

always a good plan. . .

10:23 pm

Hmmm, did I actuallly say SADLY about no medical payments...shame on me...

10:24 pm

no no tell yourself it is a good thing that you did not have high medical payments even if you didn't get to reduce your taxes . . .

10:24 pm

there you go! you caught yourself while i was typing

10:25 pm

i say something similar to clients who complain their income was too high. . . really? too high?

10:25 pm

Speaking of medical, I was so thrilled when hubby qualified for Medicare. But in this state, he is forced to take a medicare advantage plan as an under 65 recipient. Will not safe us a bit of money compared to keeping him on my plan.

10:26 pm

*save

10:26 pm

brb...

10:27 pm

oh too bad that. . .*refrains from making "entitlement" *

10:27 pm

Income too high? Right ..

10:27 pm

i have yet to understand why taking something that you have earned in most cases is a bad thing. . .

10:29 pm

fw

10:29 pm

not so bad with lickety

10:29 pm

Congratulations jmcnrick on your fireworks! Good for you!

10:30 pm

10:30 pm

10:30 pm

Either way ..

10:31 pm

WooT WppT WooT jmc!!

10:34 pm

Bleecchh ..

10:34 pm

10:34 pm

Yay jmc! and Jj I assume!

10:36 pm

Scooping a litter box is in the top ten of the most disgusting, abhorrent things to do ..

10:37 pm

well it beats cleaning the floor imho. . .

10:37 pm

my cat is not very li6 box inclined

10:38 pm

Probably ..

10:38 pm

well i think i am heading off to bed. . .my glass of bourbon awaits on the bed table. .

10:39 pm

unless you need a clue torgie

10:39 pm

Thanks jmc, but I'm okay .. Have some good sleeps ..

10:40 pm

okay good night then. . . *poof*

11:40 pm

only 46 words? Can I do it in 20 minutes?

11:42 pm

Probably ..

11:42 pm

think i'll go to bed instead. if i'm still up at the flip, it's the kiss of insomnia....

11:45 pm

At least you get a kiss ..

11:46 pm
