1:38 am

Hello to All here!---GrannyRose if you are still here, I want to tell you that the server here shut me off yesterday . I didnt mean to leave in the middle of our talking. ss

1:38 am

evening puglet

1:39 am

Hey Moom--how was your 4-th of July

1:39 am

was ok. mostly avoided people, really

1:40 am

And yours?

1:40 am

nice--spent it with friends at our campgrounds

1:41 am

nice that sounds way better than the local options we had!

1:41 am

It was until my great dane and boxer came in from an encounter with some skunk!

1:42 am

Oh nah... I bet they loved that too lol

1:44 am

they didnt seem too put off with --lol-----so today it looks like baths-lol

1:45 am

yup! but that was possibly a good idea anyway ^^

1:47 am

giving Beulah(the dane) a bath is not such an easy task! Time its over I got to clean the whole bathroom--lol

1:49 am

When we first started dating, my husband had a bernard. Happily it enjoyed the kiddie pool. Unhappily, it took both of us to wash the dog in it lol

1:49 am

same story with my dog

1:49 am

I understand the big dog hazard ^^

1:56 am

I think Beulah goes out of her way to make herself as awful smelling as she can! If she can find something dead to roll in its rolling it the mud to now this encounter with the skunk. And Else(the boxer) is just a follower.

1:59 am

Actually, most dogs do that if/when they can. To "mask" thier scent.

2:00 am

I freaked out when i got my first dog and she did that, so I called the breeder. She says they all do that, generally

2:00 am

which made sense once i thought about it, tho it never would have occured to me, til she said it

2:02 am

they might enjoy the smell but I sure dont! So they had to spent their first night ever sleeping out on the deck(which they are none too happy to do)

2:02 am

lol nice

2:02 am

our little dog did it when she'd accidentally get loose - hunt up something seriously rank to roll in and come home soooo proud of herself. Dead things, rotten garbage... yuck. Usually right after I'd put on her flea drops for the month, sigh - I often wondered if the smell of the drops motivated her to try harder than usual to get past someone and out the door.

2:03 am

also possible. If theyre following a hunting instinct I could see that, along with the proud lol

2:05 am

got to have her own idea of perfume smeared all over her, not something we liked, haha!

2:05 am

I know Beulah and Else were so happy when they came in last night carrying that skunk smell.But our freinds nor I were so pleased with their scent--lol

2:06 am

and of course they came accross the river==which only brought out the smell that much worse

2:07 am

oh, yes, nothing smellier or friendlier than a WET stinky dog, lol! :P

2:08 am

that reason, right there, is about the only *great* thing about AZ, imo... Even if hot sun-baked dog is also pretty smelly

2:11 am

Is it cooling off any there yet Moon

2:12 am

a little bit. but not nearly enuf. Its at the clingy sort of humid point, now

2:13 am

I havent talked to my sister in Vegas for a few days to know if they are still in those awful temps

2:14 am

a little. But not enuf, really. Was only at 105 today

2:15 am

yeah thats still pretty warm yet

2:15 am

I couldnt take those temps! I hate the hot weather!

2:17 am

whoa. oops. Sorry about the net barf!

2:18 am

But yea. Still really warm. And with an added side of slightly humid, even tho it hasnt rained

2:20 am

Rain! We've had rain everyday for 2 weeks it seems and rain in in thr forecast for the upcoming week as well

2:20 am

I would really rather have that, even if it's annoying or a downer. I can put on a raincoat, but I cant get more naked lol

2:22 am

Yep I not really complaining about the rain. Two summers of hardly any we need it to replenshed

2:22 am

good! Then I hope you'll get a little brak from it, soon, but I still find myself jealous ^^

2:23 am

but we are having to dig up onions and potatoes due to them starting to rot due to all the wet

2:24 am

You would need to do that sometime anyway =)

2:24 am

This is just encouraging you to eat better today =D

2:25 am

lol--true- but they are not as mature as they should be--but at least they are eatible still

2:27 am

that's good. Im hoping to try and start something here, eventually, but I figure I should learn to cook better first xD

2:27 am

fireflies! yea!

2:28 am

and whats up with the recent trend in chic part words?

2:28 am

This is like the 4th night in a row!

2:28 am

6:21 am

my love is going bananas at work :( He just forwarded me two mails he sent to his colleagues and bosses... pretty heavy stuff. Now how to convince him to stop working and/or stressing before he has another burnout...

woohoo rose that will be a relief

6:22 am

sprite....gently but firmly, remind him how much you need to be in good health....

6:23 am

* you need him to be *

6:23 am

yeah... will do that... it would be his 3rd burnout... I so hope he won't let it get that far.

6:24 am

i have to keep reminding don all the time.

6:24 am

wth... babble ate my message. I wrote: woooooot rose, that is so awesome! Two more weeks, they will pass, and quickly. Promise. *hugs*

6:25 am

he tries too hard and runs into red tape all the time, and colleagues that don't work half as hard, and care even less... ok, rant over.

6:25 am

i learned the hard way to avoid work burnout,after a nice life changing attitude adjustment i saw things in a whole new light

6:26 am

I bet you did, crossy. I truly hope my love doesn't need that harsh a reminder...

6:27 am

i was on my way to my first 401k and first heart attack at the same time

6:27 am

awww poor sprite's love.

no sprite. i'm old-fashioned. i like to hold the book, and then put it on my shelf.

6:39 am

ok hun :)

6:40 am

without my ereader i would of had to either A: move to a bigger house or B: turn my entire livingroom into a mini-library.the 6 books shelves i do have are stuffed full!

6:40 am

and the problem is??? crossy

6:41 am

each chelving unit is 7 feet high with 6 shelves on each for 42 full book shelves!

6:41 am

wife enjoys a living room i think.i,on the other hand would have no problems with it

6:42 am

if himself can fill 7 shelves twice over with dvd's, i can have as many books as i like, right?

6:42 am

as long as i left room for a pair of wing back chairs a standing lamp and a small end table

6:42 am

of course you can,granny,fair is fair

6:42 am

LOLOL

6:42 am

I could live in a library. But the rest of my family would object. I have thousands of books.

6:43 am

i voiced the idea of a mini home library once and was shot down.she said if i wanted a book store to just go and open one

6:43 am

besides, at last count i only have 96 pairs of earrings...need 366 pairs, 1 for each day of the year and 1 pair for leapyears.

6:43 am

hahaha great lady, your lady, crossy

6:44 am

but i digress....

6:44 am

only 96? Remind me to send you some, rose.

6:44 am

she is indeed,sprite

6:44 am

sigh,women and their baubles

6:45 am

lol, crossy...and sprite...yes please!!

6:45 am

don't generalise, crossy. I have one ring, my wedding ring. I have 3 pairs of earrings. And one silver and one golden necklace. That is all.

6:45 am

which kind are you into, rose?

6:45 am

i am sorry,i should never generalize

6:46 am

my beloved also does not go heavy on the bling

6:46 am

sparkly is good, sprite

6:46 am

*giggles* Crossy, trust me, we galls generalise a lot here about you guys. You are due a couple of times.

6:46 am

sparkly. And dangling? Or on the earlobe?

6:46 am

and dingle dangles

6:46 am

DHhas bought me"baubles", epensive ones which I'll probably have to live off once he's gone

6:46 am

Generalizations are always wrong.

6:46 am

ah, dingle dangles :D

6:46 am

well,since i am vastly outnumbered here,discretion is the better part of valor

6:46 am

8:38 am

My 85 year-old uncle graduated yesterday from Queen's University with a BA in Theology. I'm very proud of him! http://tinyurl.com/plwg9ds

8:38 am

cool, has!

8:38 am

oh bother safari with its autocorrecter!

8:39 am

if i meant has, i would have typed has!

8:39 am

But you typed haz, I know.

8:40 am

yes. hi there, how are you? :)

8:40 am

I'm well, thank you.

8:40 am

nice to see you again, it's been too long.

8:41 am

I've been mostly stealth babbling, it's a quiet occupation.

8:41 am

i would imagine so.

8:42 am

Are you well?

8:43 am

i've been having a bit of a rough patch the past couple of weeks in dealing with marty's finite lifespan, but am improving.

8:44 am

The thing is, however much you think you can prepare yourself for how you're going to feel when the end comes, you can't. You can only go with how you feel at the time.

8:44 am

emotions can be so unpredictable, yes. the trouble is that the end hasn't come and i don't know when it will and i feel like i can't afford to fall apart a bunch of times BEFORE it does, you know?

8:45 am

currently waiting on results from tuesday's endoscopic biopsy to know the severity of the IBD and whether any lymphoma involved and maybe they will give me a sort of prognosis then.

8:46 am

I know. But you've got so much emotion invested in Marty that it's inevitable that you're going to have a strong reaction to what's coming.

8:46 am

{{hurshy}}

8:46 am

but, the kidney prognosis was wrong, so i know these things are not an exact science.

8:47 am

My only advice re treatment is that the vets might offer things but you are not obliged to take it up, especially if you feel that the down side outweighs any benefits.

8:48 am

yes, it sounds like we're only talking about pills for treatment, haz, so, nothing too extreme. but even then if there is a chemo pill for lymphoma i know that's a judgment call in terms of kidneys vs cancer.

8:49 am

My feeling is that just because you can extend Marty's life, it doesn't mean that you should. What is that continued life going to be like?

8:49 am

indeed. will only do things as long as his overall quality of life is good.

8:50 am

Good, you have his best interests at heart, I know.

8:50 am

and so far, really, he's fine. a bit lethargic the last couple weeks and has diarrhea, but that's it. mostly he's still happy, purrs a lot with the cuddling and so forth.

8:51 am

If he's happy, that's grand, it's when he becomes tired of life that you'll need to take decisions.

8:51 am

assuming i can TELL when that is. it's not like with people who can tell you that!

8:52 am

You'll know.

8:56 am

Well, I'm going to head off - dog to walk and plants to water. Good to talk to you, hurshy. Bye for now.

8:57 am

bye haz

8:57 am

thanks

I have had 5 dogs and always feel guilt when one dies. Like I should have done more. But with my first Newfie, it was awful. I let her go too long. She had bone cancer. I swore to never do that again to an animal.

9:11 am

9:11 am

thanks poodle, i will try not to do that. have my husband to be a check and balance.

My next Newf also had cancer, lymphoma. when she was 12 she got a painless neurological condition that caused her to lose control of hind legs. we had to use a harness to help her walk.

9:11 am

ty

9:12 am

She was happy and all was fine. she got stronger with our help and acupuncture.

9:13 am

yeah i'm kinda freaked out to think about having to go through this with my other two cats and kinda thinking no more new pets ever again cause it's just too hard and sad :(

9:14 am

Then she got the lymphoma and was feeling the effects. The summer heat was coming on and I could not let her go thru that again so we put her down. I have no regrets about her end. No guilt.

9:14 am

She was 14. the best fog

9:14 am

12:46 pm

what makes me wonder is that she LOVES chocolate.. but then she is really reticent to try anything new, and that is a shame

12:47 pm

it's been available for many years in Montreal....now can buy it in Maine

12:47 pm

old and set in her ways?

12:47 pm

12:52 pm

12:52 pm

12:52 pm

1:06 pm

hi all. Une, I just came back from Montreal Jazz festival... good clue for me!

1:06 pm

ah, didn't have that one! tx

1:06 pm

The Scots (and Ulster-Scots) even have a word for the action of helping someone along by supporting them under the armpits. To ox5cog. Much used when too much drink has been taken. And ox5 is in common use around here.

1:06 pm

ah, tytyty aloy :)

1:07 pm

yay TK..

1:07 pm

hey doren!

1:07 pm

thnx une

1:07 pm

1:08 pm

Hello.

1:08 pm

1:08 pm

1:12 pm

oh, i'm so sorry to hear that. i had no idea, as i was "awol" form babble then....she's still in my friends list :((

1:12 pm

she and Haz used to "gang up" on me, cajoling.. and it made me feel so welcome when I was a newbie to Babble.. I became a "pen pal" with FM and we were hoping to visit with each other "one of these days"

1:13 pm

mother nature is somber now here, the sun has just disappeared behind ominous clouds.

1:13 pm

FM and Haz were a team, for sure

1:13 pm

She was so much fun and a really good friend on and off babble. It just hasn't been the same without her.

1:13 pm

yes, Doren.. the PB!

1:13 pm

back, scanner installed but I don't knowhow to use it yet and the directions are in French aaarghh

1:13 pm

haz, your "new" pup is sooo aodrable -- reminds me of my grandfather's dogs Glad and Dub -- he worshiped those furbabies!

1:14 pm

i do remember her ( and of course, haz). like you, they made me look forward to a new babbling adventure every day

1:14 pm

Thanks, Une, he's rather easy on the eye and a sucker for cuddles.

1:14 pm

It is nice Jill. But a day or two without seeing someone is not cause for worry, I don't think. People get busy with life.

Hi Min, anymore people in on your get together?

2:33 pm

I do not have anybody yet! I tried to send red barn an e-mail, but it bounced back to me. If you see her can you ask her to send me an email so I get her correct address

2:34 pm

I wanted to do it at the end of this month, but since I have no responses, I think I might just scratch it for now. Unless I hear from redbarn and I can post exact dates for people.

2:34 pm

i hope people go! wish i could!

2:39 pm

Min, try emailing her through this page... http://tinyurl.com/kem72ye

2:50 pm

Thank you MollyL! I just sent her the message via website.

2:51 pm

howdy again everyone:) back for the other half:))

2:52 pm

Hello crosshair! How are you doing today? Welcome to grid

2:58 pm

welcome home crossy :)

2:58 pm

lol,ty.did not know i left:)

2:59 pm

did you get all the rain/thinderstorms your way yesterday cfrossy?

3:01 pm

just good old fashioned rain.was gentle and rained throughout the night

3:01 pm

no boomers

3:04 pm

most of the rain keeps missing us... sems like it's headed straight for us, then veers north/ south of us... we could actuallly use some nice steady rain like that. supposed to get a bunch tomorrow

3:09 pm

just checked.we have various types of rain right through till next thursday at least

3:11 pm

here too, a week of it.... but we shall see. supposed ot be very heavy sunday

3:11 pm

luckily flooding is never an issue here since we are right georgian bay and everything drains into it

3:12 pm

I had to run errands today, light rain whenever I was in the car, torrents as soon as I stopped and had to get out of the car. The worst was that I forgot shadow was in the yard when I left, one soggy doggy when I got back, ever glad to see me.

3:13 pm

on the lake here, but drainage is very poor because there is so much clay, the water tends to run off rather tahn into the ground. infrastructure is ancient ( but being upgraded slowly) so heavey rains flood eveyone's basements and yards

3:13 pm

though in 1990 the water level was such that during ice break up the wind picked up and the ice rafted up on shore to such an extent that it took out several homes

3:14 pm

mm.yes the clay does not let much seep through

3:14 pm

hi joso :) sorry to hear about puppy, sorrier to hear you got soaked... isn't that always to way? whenever i have to go out - especially thurdays and saturdays) it always seems to rain...

3:16 pm

he'll be ok, doesn't like water, but it doesn't hurt him, not his week though, a bath then rain.

3:17 pm

take advantage of the situation and soap down fido outside

3:17 pm

that happened agian this winter crossy, somewhere in canada, cottage country.. east of bellevile maybe? it was all over the weather network, the ice was forced ashore and took out a bunch of houses!

3:18 pm

I don't think I'll get him out the door again. lol

3:18 pm

yes,if the wind blows wrong at ice out,it can be bad

3:18 pm

his fur will be very soft after being in the rain, and you may find he won't need a bath.

3:18 pm

gave him a bath yesterday

3:18 pm

Joso, is your dog a puppy? He looks bigger than that.

3:19 pm

lol @ joso picturing you at hind end of dog trying to push the pup outdoors but paws firmly planted - not happening! ;)

3:20 pm

no, 120 pounds + 10 pounds of water retention at the moment, it's a good thing he's a good natured beast.

3:23 pm

shadow doesn't go anywhere he doesn't want to ;) he must eat you out of house and home!

3:25 pm

can someone give me a clue for the second ce 6/21 please?

3:25 pm

shadow goes with me, hence his name. follows me everywhere if he can.

3:26 pm

4:19 pm

4:19 pm

4:20 pm

Rule #1 of all Soodle-entertaining..... Get guests absolutely smashed! If the food is dodgy, the drink will be blamed. Not exactly Martha Stewart, but heck, I haven't been sued yet!

4:20 pm

Or number + Parks & ***reation...TV show

4:20 pm

4:21 pm

4:22 pm

got it....thanks....

4:22 pm

Thats why they invented Doritos, Rubes!

4:22 pm

<----drags Molly into the new century

4:23 pm

no doritos here, I usually cook up some tortillas with chli powder and cut up carrot sticks

4:23 pm

Ah well, I am not in4 trendy words like "great room"

4:23 pm

my last word.....last ra word?

4:24 pm

Omg! There's a new century????? Sh#t! I only just got used to the 21st one!!! Lol

4:24 pm

And "bonus room"

4:24 pm

but I had bettr do the food in the morning, or nobody will eat once the margaritas start

4:24 pm

That's okay Soodle. As we are going to be roommates in our elder years, we have no need for that stuff.

4:25 pm

my studio is a great room (small g) because it has all my "stuff"

4:25 pm

last ra word??....please take me out of my misery!

4:25 pm

4:27 pm

Way-Hay! Bring on the Molly n Soodle show! Eat your hearts out, Golden Girls. C c

4:27 pm

gin goes well with the Tour

4:28 pm

It must be late now in France, Rubes?

4:29 pm

11"30 but I'm starvingly hungry, didn't reat dinner as there was a worm in my lettuce

4:29 pm

it's the only thing I'm afraid of

4:30 pm

Yack!

4:32 pm

I always buy the pre-washed lettuce, then wash it again myself..... To be sure to be sure....

4:33 pm

Rubes, any progress on the pesky IRS stuff?

4:33 pm

I guess the vegetable arorganic, hence the wildlife

4:35 pm

No lettuce growing in the potager?

4:37 pm

We had the most amazingly fresh sugar snap peas for dinner. I think I could live on those.

4:38 pm

<--------------------!!FW!!

4:39 pm

I am having a difficult time growing sugar snaps...two years in a row...very dissappointed as I agree with you molly, I could live on them

4:39 pm

Pom pom toss for the incredible Jilly!!! WTG!

4:43 pm

Crap, I was just thinking of adding them to my garden next year. Ah well, I will do some research on that.

4:45 pm

I used to do very well, so don't give up Molly

4:48 pm

My nephew is a landscape architect. He says the pH balance of your soil is the key to everything.

4:52 pm

Congratulations Jillyjill on your fireworks! Hooray for you!

4:52 pm

TY minv and hello again

4:54 pm

Hello Jillyjill! I have been here off and on since you left b4

4:54 pm

Min, I'm sorry you have not gotten a better response to your request for a get together in your area.

4:54 pm

How was your 4th minv?

4:56 pm

It is so much fun to meet up!!

4:56 pm

Thanks MollyL! Had a feeling Vermont would be too out of the way for people. It's way up north. Maybe I should try to do one in New York or Connecticut next time.

4:56 pm

My 4th of July was good even though I never got to Babble

4:57 pm

I will be on the east coast in December, but not sure yet if we will just stay in the Norfolk VA area or tempt a trip to MA. Depends on whether our son in MA can come down to VA.

4:58 pm

I hope you can figure something out so you can meet some people, Min. As for too far north, I don't know. Plenty of Babble players in Canada and from what I have read, people have driven hundreds of miles to attend Babble get togethers.

5:00 pm

Norfolk to Massachusetts is a long drive.

5:00 pm

Tell me about it....10 hours

5:01 pm

Looks like I will have to become one of those long distance drivers if I ever want to attend a babble meet-up. I guess if others can do it, I should be able to do it too.

5:01 pm

Train travel is fun Min.

5:01 pm

We could do one out here...LOL...

5:02 pm

I thought about that for the winter as opposed to driving...

5:03 pm

And I definitly want our son to take the train if he does come down

5:03 pm

brb

5:05 pm

<Would

5:06 pm

<------- would take planes trains & automibiles to attend a Babble meet. :-(

5:08 pm

We gotta plan one in Ireland!

5:09 pm

Oh right. If Min can't get people to come to Vermont, how is Soodle going to get people to come to Ireland?

5:09 pm

Me to Soodle, if I had the money!

5:18 pm

ruby, are here?

5:19 pm

I think it's way past Ruby's bed time.

5:20 pm

okay, will wait til another time

5:20 pm

How was your trip, Bich?

5:21 pm

The drive was fine, no traffic except for an accident in VA. Much less hot than last year.

5:23 pm

hi everyone

5:25 pm

crossy is back:)) howdy andree

5:29 pm

Hello dear crossy.....

5:29 pm

not a friendly grid for me

5:29 pm

but now I must head out to hunt down my pesto. Dinner tonight a gazillion left over salads and a fresh pizza with left over chicken.

5:33 pm

Glad to hear you had a good trip, Bich.

5:34 pm

*Wonders what is involved in a pesto hunt*

5:34 pm

start with picking basil

5:39 pm

Usually when you plant basil, you get enough to make pesto for a hundred people.

5:40 pm

And then, where does one find pine nut trees? : )

5:50 pm

as basil does not grow in winter i use all my summer crop to freeze lots of pesto

6:00 pm

when I live in my apt I grew basil in pots and it did quite well

6:00 pm

lived

6:00 pm

I love home made pest

6:00 pm

pesto, even

6:03 pm

As I'm not all that fond of basil, I'm not fond of pesto either.

6:04 pm

ihave to say basil is amongst my favourite herbs, love brushetta

6:05 pm

help with the en5 pls. I hope it is not a fish

6:05 pm

I love brushetta too.

6:05 pm

<oregano woman!

6:06 pm

It is a fish...go in

6:06 pm

at 100 i am off to get ready for the day, will not finish this .the only en i have is come in

6:06 pm

duh, feeling really stupid, ty MOlls

6:07 pm

After a bottle or two of wine, Soodle is revisiting oregano pizza days with Studly.

6:07 pm

lol gave me 101, i had not seen it

6:07 pm

Lol Peri! Welcome to my world!

6:08 pm

peri its an re word too

6:08 pm

Memory Lane! A nice place!

6:08 pm

ty Andree, I did not have that one either

6:09 pm

*Gets ready for Soodle to burst into a chorus of Memories from Cats*

6:11 pm

and I'm Feline.. goood..

6:12 pm

< More of a Barra Streisand fan.... 'Memories, Light the corners of my mind... Misty water coloured memories

6:13 pm

*sets up Redford for a Soodle lapdance*

6:13 pm

Barra

6:13 pm

OK, Soodle, have finished work for today and am drinking vodka, so going right with you to nostalgia!

6:13 pm

Bring. It. On.

6:13 pm

See? Barra. I told you two bottles of wine.

6:13 pm

Oh, yes, please, ruru...a Redford dance of ANY kind...even if he is really old now.

6:15 pm

But, then, I'm kinda old myself!

6:15 pm

hey all

6:15 pm

he is old and short. he plays tennis at my same club

6:15 pm

BTW, pine nuts are harvested from pine cones...

6:15 pm

he's a really nice guy though

6:16 pm

Oh, wow, ruru...I'd have another heart attack and just pass away. He has remarried, however...sigh.

6:16 pm

yes. to a Canadian I think .. she's nice too

6:16 pm

Just another reason for me to move there close to you next year, ruru!

6:18 pm

Butch cassidy & the sundance kid was showing on Irish TV last Sunday. I INSISTED my youngest sit down & watch the bicycle scene. She huffed & puffed € declared it was boring! My offspring are philistines.

6:19 pm

Soodle, sometimes I'm actually grateful 2 of my 3 kids don't speak to me....isn't that just so sad?

6:19 pm

*look out Northern California I guess * :D

6:20 pm

Your female offspring have no clue about the nuances of appealing men. They have been taught it's all about butts and abs.

6:20 pm

If I can't move there, ruru, will definitely plan a trip to the area....hey, maybe a Babble meet-up in the Spring for us western folks? Gotta get Jilly to come!

6:21 pm

Agree totally, Molly. These days it's all so blatant. The younger people have lost the fine art of real seduction and flirting...definitely their loss.

6:22 pm

I'm very grateful that all of my kids speak to me. They are wonderful people, the best in my life.

6:22 pm

Good for you, Molly....we are not all so fortunate.

6:23 pm

Now I'm getting depressed....CHANGE OF SUBJECT!

6:23 pm

Oh Mimi, thats too bad! All 3 of mine speak to me---- far too graphically, in my opinion---- but I appreciate that they confide in me. Now, if only I could get them to appreciate the wonder that is/was Redford & Newman....

6:23 pm

Kittens anyone?

6:24 pm

{{ruru}} kittens....

6:24 pm

Yes, apparently it is puppies and kitties time.

6:25 pm

Remember I'm a bit tipsy already, but do any of you know people who just love to rub it in your face that their life is better than yours? Pompous and annoying, right?

6:25 pm

Diddums....

6:25 pm

kittens! puppies!

6:25 pm

Hi Shirl.

6:26 pm

Yes, and hummingbirds and lions and tigers and bears, oh my...

6:27 pm

Soodle! : D : D

6:30 pm

Time to find something for dinner. Good "seeing" all of you again. Hugs all around.

6:42 pm

Time to head to bed. G'night all.

6:43 pm

Diddliums

6:43 pm

'Night Soodle.

6:45 pm

...... Still not taking those kittens Ru.....

6:45 pm

it must be wine fest night, or alcohol anyway, as, i'm back to find my last 16, and i've had a good night with takeaway pizza and my friend with her son and my daughter, saying that 13 yr olds can push the Saints to limits!!that might be why i had a bottle of wine and my friend 2...hiccup :)

6:45 pm

:D...

6:45 pm

hi soodles, and bye and sweet dreams hin

6:45 pm

It's wino night in Babbleland. Raise your glass and dance on a table.

6:46 pm

fog or frog?

6:46 pm

lol

6:46 pm

Hurray for pizza n wine nights with good mates, Lil! Now i really am poofing! Poof!!!!

6:46 pm

warts happening?

6:47 pm

It's toadally a frog.

6:47 pm

I have a crappy 18 to go

6:47 pm

sad thing is, i'm very sober but heho, it's better for me, so i can finish babble without seeing doubble grids:)

6:48 pm

good evening all!

6:48 pm

L can pound it with the best of them and keep on keeping on.

6:49 pm

Hi Sue

6:49 pm

hi sue:)

6:49 pm

hi molly!

6:50 pm

hi lilli!

6:50 pm

always nice to see some of my favorite people here :-)

6:50 pm

hi sue

6:51 pm

18 left here

6:51 pm

hi peri!

6:51 pm

hi peri :0

6:51 pm

haha, 72 here, oh well

6:52 pm

Lillian...I almost forgot we had a date here tonight! I'm here!

6:52 pm

((sue))

6:52 pm

hi mimi!

6:52 pm

Mimi, how is your job coming along with the doctor from hell?

6:52 pm

so, did all of my american friends have a lovely 4th of July?

6:52 pm

And hi, peri!

6:53 pm

Peri, she is a total nightmare....but I keep trying.

6:53 pm

((mimi)) did we,or was that the other night? i don't even know what day it is without wine :)

lol, they canceled fireworks on post (we living on an army post) last night because of "stormy weather"... well, they shouldn't have because it was so nice last night. They are suppose to have them tonight, but its storming tonight. haha.

6:54 pm

we had a quiet, lazy day, lilli, which was nice (except for the fireworks, which the dog does not like)

6:54 pm

Did I miss our date, lil? Sorry if I did...my back went out yesterday and I was down for the count.

6:54 pm

that's a shame toad

6:55 pm

Sue, my cats went nuts hearing the people setting off fireworks in our parking lot...they kept running into the bedroom closet.

from the posts on facebook it still looks like it is going on. not sure we are gonna go, might just take the littlest one since the older one isn't really feeling good

6:56 pm

my cats don't seem to mind much although one of them is always on edge anyway so it is hard to tell

6:56 pm

i thought it was the other night, but my memory is crap mimi, so you could be right :)sorry about your back mimi and hope it gets better soon

6:57 pm

It's fine today, lil, thanks. I've had two surgeries on my back and still have issues periodically. But am better than several years ago, so not complaining.

6:57 pm

my cat hates the sound of the hoover, a car, a bottle top being removed off fizzy water and strangers but she's fine with thunder!!. go figure

6:58 pm

Hey, lil, if I move my leg unexpectedly and my Dodger is near the table, he jumps and hits his head on the cocktail table....do not know why.

6:59 pm

well, i suppose after 2 surgeries mimi, you'll still get pain from time to time, sadly, but i'm glad to hear that after both of them you have your life back(sorry for the pun)

6:59 pm

He and his sister have been with me since they were tiny babies and have never had any trauma...they're just really skittish.

7:00 pm

Yep, lil...no more painkillers...and glad for that as they became an issue for me. Now it's just aspirin and some vodka! Don't worry about becoming an alcoholic, though, since it puts me to sleep too fast!

7:01 pm

some cats are just 'scaredy cats' like mine

7:02 pm

You know, lil, I have a lot to be thankful for and I'm glad I realize that. Never dwell on the negative as it's a sad and lonely place to be.

7:02 pm

aye, sometimes 2 painkillers and a tot of vodka or a glass of wine are better than loads of pain killers:)

7:03 pm

I haven't had a narcotic painkiller for 7 years now...you don't even know what an accomplishment that is...so much better now without them.

7:04 pm

good for you, mimi!

7:04 pm

Thanks, sue....I'm really proud of that.

7:04 pm

exactly mimi.life is too short to dwell on the past and what might have been.live every day as if it is your last, that's what i think and live by anyway.enjoy what family you hav eand enjoy what is around you,friends, places to visit etc

7:05 pm

brilliant mimi :D

7:06 pm

I'm working on my license to lead a support group in my area using cognitive behavioral therapy to overcome drug addiction....being of service in that way is so rewarding and people seem to respond to me in a very positive way...makes me feel like I'm turning my adversity into a triumph.

te7?

7:06 pm

Huh. Just tried to run expert from my desktop shortcut and got a "divide by zero" error (???) but it works fine if I run it from the original. Sigh.
