Hugs and Hi Rose
hello dee, ruru, flosey, pugs
i see you got your early birthday present, pugs. so glad it arrived in time...lol
Yes and thank you very much
hi rose and pugs
can you talk about the doctor visit
Hi Flosey
of course, dear. all went well. she understand about the strong pain meds. and i got her to put all the extra bits on my certificate, so workcover cannot play up.
did you come away feeling better
next step, hydrotherapy, once it is approved by workcover. yes i did, pugs. we had a good talk about the meds, and she says that at the moment i need them to maintain my level of activity.
i'm stuck and missing a ton of w's
tomorrow is the counseling session.
I have all the w's
sounds like great news, rose
ruru, they are all words we have had before.
11 wa's
10 we's 1 wi 1 wr
Sounds like things went very well then---Do you have any ideal when you get to start hydrotherapy then
missing one wa for sure
oh, and my return to work co-ordinator is going to give workcover a nudge as i will not be allowed to return to work until i have built up my tolerance again. and that is only going to happen once i have been in the pool for at least 2 months.
1 wa 6 rest wa 4's and one wa 5
how are you feeling about being off for 2 mos?
great Rose, that gives you time to heal on your terms
dee, because i am under workcover, they pay me 85% of my pre-injury earnings.
hi all
Hi cos
That is much better than ours... it is 67%
hi cos
hi cos
hey cos....or rather....cooee cos
-11 outside, feels like -25, roads coverd with ice. thank god im home
so am i, cos. you have managed to stay safe, which is great.
hate that bitter cold... we got 12 inches of snow in the last 24 hours, but I don't think we are supposed to get any more
We had a white-out until after 10 AM...
I need help on a w 6 please
ugh, dee.
person who cries loudly...
ruru, someone who wa4's, crier
have that one
other one is wi6
the only other 6 is wi 6... hotdog
someone said there's a wi ..is that a 6
ah geez
done in by a creepy politician
lol
and I kept poking around for it :D
wi6 is also the name of a creepy NYC former congressman ;)
I always think of Clinton lol
not surprising
How are you doing, flosey?
good thanks Dee
and you?
Hanging in .. this extreme weather wreaks havoc... had a headache all day, but pretty well, otherwise.
ah, I know that feeling so well
I found out we are dog-sitting next weekend... made me laugh. I sure never thought I would do that :)
had quite severe migraines all of my life - fortunately seldom have them anymore
well Clinton and wi6 are closely associated dee :D
lol, hope doggie is well trained
too, true, ru... had to explain waaaay too many things to our daughter because of him....
like always get your clothes dry cleaned :?
It is our daughter's dog, and usually she is really good. Hubby will take care of potty breaks, so should be okay, except for all the hair she sheds.
yeah, something like that
fireworks
well done Dee
congrats Dee and Rose
I can't believe how much more I have to sweep after Ellie has visited. I always remember that, when I am tempted to get a dog.
ty, flosey
WTG DEE!!!
ty, pug
ty, rose, wtg to you, too
get a chihuahaua they shed less ;)
thanx pugs and dee
True, but they look so rat like :)
FWs Hi!! and Bye!! xoxo
i have a chorkie.. its a chihauahua and yorkie mix.. so i m biased lol
Chihuahua's aren't dogs really
hubby's aunt and uncle had chihuahuas; she used to carry them around in a big purse... pretty ugly actually
lol, ru.. rodents?
*pays for therapy for cos' dog now*
they are indeed ankle biters. paco doesnt bite my ankles but he always bites visitor ankles :P
WTG DIZ!!!
What does paco look like?
Chihuahuas are coyote snacks
ill post a pic on ur wall one secx
k
posted! :)
Much cuter than a chihuahua!!
Almost all terriers I have encountered seem to be yippers and ankle biters :)
they are lol. but not to their owners :)
That is good!
My sister had a terrier of some kind when she was little. I can't remember which kind; she was called Merry Christmas.
i prefer big dogs. i want a black lab. ryan says no. too big! :(
My hubby always had big dogs growing up - German shepherds and Irish setters. They are intimidating to those of us who haven't been around dogs, so I can understand ryan's "no" :)
oh he grew up with big dogs. he is just a wuss because he doesnt wanna share the bed with 2 cats, 1 small dog and an oversized dog :)
oh and me of course lol
LOL LOL
help woth the O? please?
When our daughter married, Ellie was relegated to a special bed on the floor. She only gets to visit the bed occasionally ...
or 6/18 think Far East
aww poor dog! its like that golden girls episode when stan slept over and he asks where he sleeps to which dorothy replies "on the floor like any dog" :)
thanks for the o :)
LOL... poor Stan. YW
I hate single letter tiles :(
how about the lone N? :)
I agree; they are usually toughies.
May I help with any others before I leave?

Dee...
Auto correct strikes again
nite, su... ru LOL
ah, just coming back and looks like everyone's leaving
Iam still here Flosey
ty pugs, so not left all alone
no, you are not alone--lol
I dont know what happen to Rose--she never said bye
sorry people. watching the news. i'm still here, my dears
flosey thought she was all alone
awww, flosey...hugs and kisses, hun. and for you too, pugs.
thanks Rose----is it still hot over there yet
yes, hun. next saturday it's going to be 86F overnight.
don brought my stereo system through to our room today, so i can play my cd's while resting on the bed.
that was nice of him to do for you
what kind of music do you like rose
will your sister be interested in your new dvd's?
yes, she likes that show too
flosey, i have a very eclectic collection. i appreciate quality music in many genres.
not many shows are clean anymore
I have a fair amoun on my computer that I listen to while doing puzzles, such as bable
but i think my favourite is rock and roll. my parents introduced me to swing and jazz, both of which i still enjoy.
there is a 16 year old from Quebec who sings Elvis' songs - he really sounds great
understand, pugs. and new movies think they have to include awful swearing all through the story. i hate it.
Iam like you Rose, I like songs from a wide range--not stuck on just one kind
it was quite sweet this afternoon. i had a beatle's cd on, and in the next room, my canary was singing along. don was amazed. i laughed, and said, you should hear him with glenn miller.
and because i have always had music playing in my home, i have a 20 something son who loves swing and jazz. and my eldest loves neil diamond, and middle son likes rock and roll.
here soon (not sure quiet when) but Paul and Ringo are having a special celebrating 5o years of the beatles and Adam Livine is going to be on too
http://news.yahoo.com/blogs/trending-n\now/16-year-old-does-masterful-elvis-im\npersonation-202
I dont care for the acid rock too well
try that one, he really sings it well - and is a real cutie
okay Flosey, thanks
that's scary, pugs. they were a part of my adolescence
lol, pugs, at my eldest's 21st birthday celebration, i was up, head-banging with him and his mates. you should have seen his face when he realised it was his mum, head-banging beside him.
LOL Rose, would of liked to of seen that
okay, timer gone off, dinner is ready. bbl
okay Rose, enjoy
enjoy rose
going for coffee, brb
I have 58 th get, perhaps tomorrow evening I'll have a chance to finish
goodnight all
good night Flosey
good morning all
good morning Sprite, and hugs
hi pugs *hugs* How are you today? And did you hear if rose's appt went well?
feeling any better
cooee my dear friend.
shes off eating
hiya rose! Even better, I can ask you directly. How did your appt go and how do you feel?
Iam good today
sprite, doc listened and listened well, hun.
very good, rose. And took you very seriously, I hope.
still can't finish a meal yet. * sigh *
am glad, pugs. I am about the same as yesterday.
aw sweetie... you will... in time. *hugs* Have patience with yourself.
poor spritey, i so wish i could be there to help you, sweetie.
you just cant kick that bug, can ya
thanks, my dear friends. It is just the tiredness from after a flu, I think. Will take some time to rebuild strength and energy levels.
sprite i did answer your email, hun
have you been checking your sugar Sprite? If its running low that can make you tired too
just read it, darling, thank you. Things will work out :)
hope it helps, dear
yes I check the sugar levels and they are ok most of the time
it does, rose *hugs* Thanks so much.
how is the weather developing, pug? And with you, rose? Beastly hot again?
yes, sprite, we are expecting a low of 30C/86F on saturday night.
its not snowing today but temps has lower so what snow we got is staying for awhile
omg if that is the low, I fear the high.
can you go outside, pug? Or locked in again?
I went out yesterday to clean the bird feeder and it was hard walking because of the drifts and we had ice ontop of the snow so it was crusty ontop
good morning,friends
easy to twist an ankle in that kind of snow
{{pugs}}
morning ruby :)
good morning Ruby, hugs
yahoo!! ruby, xoxox
yes and had to watch to not get the boot caught and fall
{{sprite}} I owe you a long letter but must send it by snail mail and figure out a way to tyoe it a I'm too paranoid to send by e-mail
indeed, pug. You take care, please?
YYay! osie}} I haven't seen you in a long time and have no idea how you're doing......
is all good, ruby, whenever is right for you :) *hugs*
snow, esoecially with ice underneath, is a fal waiting to happen!!!
or even Rosie*
I will Sprite....hows your weather Sprite and did you get to get out yesterday
ruby, will write you very soon and catch you up.
I am lucky if I accomplish one thing a day and that me**s paying one bill, for example! What a mess!
weather here is pretty mild, no winter weather. A bit of frost at night is all. Didn't go out yesterday, was too tired after dishes and laundry and some other odds and ends. Might make it today though.
poor ruby :(
poor ruby, is there no end in sight, dear?
sprite and I have been lucky with mild winter temps. The ||UK has much worse weather, but it eems to swirl north and east of us.
I wish ours would swirl somewhere else--lol......got another snow this week-end and the middle of next week. They are saying if we get a few more inches this month that this will be our snowiest winter ever
lucky you, pug, LOL!
Iam not feeling lucky LOL
*giggles* Not? How odd :)
we've only had one very small snowfall and temps hovering about 0C, 32F and 40 or so in the afternoon. But I know it's not too late. One year we had a blizzard on 16 April!
our neighbor brought his tractor and blade and cleaned out all the neighbors drives...was so nice of him to do
for us the venom might be in the tail, ruby. But I hope not!
good morning everyone:))
oh that is wonderful of him, pug.
hiya crossy! *hugs*
Morning Mr Crossy
that year we had snow on the tulips and it was beautiful. There are pix someplace in the bowels of my computer
cooee crossy.
thanks for your email, crossy, very helpful
{{crossy}} "we've got our bear to keep us warm"
good stuff sprite. sorry it was short and abrupt, I was typing it on my tablet and it can be a trial to get things typed out correctly on it
Iam going to get a thank you card and send a bit of money to help pay for some of his gas---I dont know how other to thank him
all my favorite ladies;))))
oh, i nearly forgot, joso sends his love, and says he misses all of you. he seems to be keeping more regular hours at the moment, and so isn't here at this time.
np crossy, I know how awkward those things are for typing when you are wellversed in the querty keyboard.
yay, crossy, will try to not make you choke on your cuppa .
ooh thank you rose! Great to hear. Miss him lots too!
I'm sure that doing a good deed like that makes him feel good in his heart, and warm!
It probably does but I think I should do something
pug, something small maybe, like a card or something you cooked.
reading back on the fella with the tractor who cleaned up the driveways. those big tractors get horrible mileage on a tank of diesel, so if you all chip in and help him get some fuel,i am sure that would be most appreciated, puglet
i know you have seen it, pugs, but friends, there is a pic of my grand-daughter in my profile. she is wearing her first tutu, and starts lessons tomorrow.
thanks Crossy, I feel I should do something to repay the kindness
and ty too Sprite
if we all pay it forward, we make a happier planet;)
Claudia is a knockout! Where did she get those curls?
and the other pic of the map of australia shows europe and the UK all within it's borders. to give you an idea of how big australia is.
Crossy, you're right. I told my husband abut "pay it forward, and even he understood and liked the concept
ruby, from me, to her daddy, from her daddy to her.
so true, crossy
rose, interesting, that map. Aussie is so huge :)
sorry it's so small. don is looking for a better version(larger).
sprite,when you look at that map, we look like neighbors! lol
lololol
well compared to lizlin and i, you are...lol
lol,sprite, you should try where crossy lives. weeks to drive from east to west. when living up north, we once had a cottage on a lake(off the grid) where it was an hour drive to the nearest telephone and almost 2 hours to the closest store. heck, even living here, I once drove two hours just to get that perfect hambuger lol
it's like Texas, takes more than a day to drve across
kind of jealous of the euros however, you guys can drive an hour and hit five different countries lol
crossy, not even going to try to compare aussie with canada or the us of a.
when we first moved here and still skied, we could drive to Austria in 5 hours, crossing Switz, Lichtenstein, etc.
my uncle always makes my mind cramp when he talks about "popping over" to spain for the weekend, then I remember, that for them, it is just a hop , skip and a jump across the channel
aee yu later, kids, paying another bill before lunch
*woof*
tc (9ruby))
pumpkin time here. goodnight my friends. hope you all have a good day. xoxox
good luck, ruby *hugs*
bye Ruby
(and taking a typing lesson, lol)
night night, rose *hugs*
gn ((granny))
good night Rose. hugs
I need to buy dog food, shop for groceries, visit the pharmacist and pick up a referral from my doctor. That is 4 stops. I think once I get going, I should be alright... but argh it looks like a mountain!
sounds like a busy day for you
lol, crossy has only learned one lesson from typing, and that is that he should hire someone(preferably someone with long ,pretty legs) to do it for him :)
don't let your beloved hear you, lol
yeah, it is, pug. Because I lack the energy. Otherwise it wouldn't be so bad, I think.
I done allot yesterday in the house, I got no clue on what to get into today. So sick of these long winter days
I am brave when she is not reading over my shoulder;)
hehehe crossy :)
i also like to clump my chores up into one day. just put my head down and plow through them all at once
fisrt of the month is my busiest time
darling puglet, go grab a book. Don't try to save your darkhunters till later. You don't have to, trust me.
no wonder you got neck problems Crossy all that looking down
I need to spread my activities, crossy.
no,i have neck problems from my beloved smacking me in the back of the head for looking down at said pretty legs
phantom: prurient
lol
lol---thats what I m5 all that looking at legs but good for you wife
hi o-o, am glad to see you. How are you holding up today?
she keeps me in line
good morning OO, feeling okay today
Neato jet racy, here.
lol had to look that up. Irony or for real, o-o?
is that an owlet in your icon?
Sprite, are you driving to do your errands
yes, I will take the car, pug. Lack the energy to go by bike.
I was thinking of you packing dogfood---be too much on you
i will loan you my jeep, sprite. you can just run overtop of anyone who gets in your way:)
sweetie, please go the extra mile for me then and do my driving... your company would help lots!
true, pug. I can park right in front of the shop, thank God.
ok, fireflies... and off with me. *hugs* to you all. Have a blessed day and a peaceful night.
I use to be able to put up hay and pack two bags of feed, cant do that any more
Bye Sprite and same to you---hope tomorrw finds you better
tc ((sprite))
A step outside will clear the cobwebs: Wind Chill -30°F (-34°C)
I would say so ,OO--we are -0 in temps
our newsman says 7 more inches and we will have the snowiest winter on record
anyone here good with gaelic? or what i think may be gaelic?
not I, crossy
You have a lot more snow, pugs.
I would glady share with you OO
good morning all :)
Hi foffle, nice to m4 you
hi puglet
Hello, Foffle. How is your onion today?
my onion?
Just talking nonsense ... an onion seemed like a good conversation starter.
well my onion is fine - how's yours?
Iam not foffle but I can say my onions are buried under snow and the ones in the house are sprouting
My onion has a certain a peel
oh dear!
Do the sprouts add to the flavor, pugs?
Havent ever tried it, but I suppose they might--should taste like green onions I would think
Sprouts on potatoes get the knife.
howdy, foffle
hiya crossy!
i have used onion sprouts in place of traditional green onions many times
so,do not toss those furry old onions right away:)
and does it taste like green onions
or better yet., plant them
I do have winter onions and I like the onion flowers too
Approximately 170 countries grow onions for their own domestic use, and many are also involved in international trade. It is estimated that over 9.2 million acres of onions are harvested annually around the World. This production is grown from more than 8 million pounds of seed. Production is in excess of 3.2 billion 50# units according to sources at the United Nations Food and Agricultural Organization in Rome, Italy. Approximately 8 percent of this global onion production is traded internationally. Leading onion production countries are China, India, United States, Turkey, and Pakistan, respectively.
that's a lot of onion rings:))
interesting OO---I use alot of onions in cooking--we also have wild onions about us and I like those too
Do will onions do better in a structured environment. Wild and crazy onions could be a hazard.
please can someone clue the gr8
wild ... terrible spelling again
color + allow or rent
thankyou
I dont know, OO---if in a structured environment then they wouldnt be wild would they?
an onion shoot could be considered a gr8
ty o-o nice clue
I suppose they could be radicals and wage war against the structure?
well, you know those onions, they are complex, they have layers
every year I plant sweet onions and they dont taste any different then the regular ones---Ive even tried planting them away from each other and no different
Yes, but do they like to cuddle?
that is odd. I prefer sweet varieties because they do not make your eyes water as much when chopping them up
lol, I dont know, OO--never had any to wrap their stems around me
It must be my ground, crossy is all I know
Not very sweet of them.
no, I guess not--lol
do not trust those onions, puglet. they may come on strong but they will always leave you in tears
LOL Crossy, I will remember that
LOL
onions seem to have a lot in common with relationships.
hows that OO
come on strong and leave you in tears
LOL--guess so
down to 25 and Iam just blinded
Need a break for abit from this---bye everyone and take care OO and enjoy the bliss of the day
bye puglet
Be well, pugs
How has your winter been, Foffle?
very mild - haven't seen a winter like this for years
we haven't had the floods here
good morning all - haven't seen a winter like this for years either - colder, snowier
good morning wvteach
Floods are challenges to deal with.
it's been terrible in the south and west
hello foffle
have to run bbl. bye all :-)
Be well, Foffle
back from lunch
89 this morning
we are lucky is this little corner of France, very clement weather
HELLO RUBY
hello teach. I am sorry about your terrible weasther.
Winter's not over, but, although we might still get some snow, it is unlikely that it will get terribly cold
cold and icey this morning - another dusting of snow on the walks and cars
I hope we don't get a hard frost because the various bulbs are coming up, too soon, ths year
that seems to be very early - at least for here
for here, too. It bodes ill for spring flowers
we should have about te same temps as you, but this year it's all topsy-turvy
much colder here for the past month and so much more snow and the snow is taying around longer - usually melts fairly soon - cold enough last night that all the snow is very icey and hard
sounds like it used to be in Binghamton, much farther north than WVA. "Black ice" was an annua danger for month and months
sometimes gets warnings of black ice but not often
I used to fall once every winter, usually getting out of the car....
my biggest fear with this snow and ice is falling - fell (not due to snow, bnut inside) several years ago and broke my wrist seriously - had to have surgery - but now worry more about falling
crossy is back, all soaped and hosed down and ready for the day:)
good morning, everyone! stats for the O please?

good morning mimi
Hi, teach! I just hate when there are no s's in the grid...no chance for plurals.

new word for me

une clued at 7:52 judi
ty wolvie
babs i just saw your request- i only have 1 a from that column- i believe it is ar 5/10 - a plus re 4
with that i am taking a break lol- bb this afternoon
Ah. Ty.
Gahh. Babble lag. Very slow.
there is also aj4
ooooh the ship khan stole is one of our words today!!!
dunno if there is anyone here to care...
I'm here and I care.
yay! ^5 judi!
I don't remember the name of the ship he stole.
well, it's re7
I am here lurking, Hurshy, Thanks fr the aj4...not got the ship one yet :-)
we are all re7 on the garbagemen to come and take away our trash or things would get very smelly
Ah. Now I remember! :-)
And ty for that clue.
poor scotty's nephew... just a tr7...
this is a very wrath of khan grid, really!
But he stayed at his post when everyone else ran!
aye, he was a good lad
Then again, space is death, darkness and disease. Although not necessarily in that order.
it is very...cold... in space
It is chilly in my house too :-)
not cold enough for revenge
A dish best served cold. Bah. We want a hot breakfast.
it always irks me that khan is all, "you exiled us to this planet and everything is all your fault" when as i recall he was EXCITED about the opportunity to have a whole new world to tame and conquer all to himself. and to blame kirk for not checking up on him... well would YOU check on the jerk who took over your ship??
Khan was a bitter blamer.
very unreasonable.
Really. Does anyone ever expect exile to be all roses and tropical drinks with little umbrellas?
i mean, yes, the star going nova was unexpected and sucky, but, really, not kirk's fault.
Mornin' folksies
hi bichon
Plus, I think the Federation also quarantined Ceti Alpha VI. So, the Khan squad knew no one was going to show up for a reunion.
do you have any thoughts on khan-as-whiner?
Hello, Bichon :-)
I think he was bummed that his group had no one to conquer. However, they all still looked pretty buff, considering they were marooned on a desert planet. Those guys could crack walnuts with their pecs.
Hi zooz, Judi, hurshy
hint for the di 8, pls
hey they conquered those ceti eels pretty well
Okay. Enough Trek talk. I'm sure we're boring the masses.
I like ST, but am more familiar with NG
Moral of the story: Never wake those in cryogenic stasis.
Time to justify my existence and go do some real work. *POOF*
ths isn't work? or real? Uh oh
Hello, Ruby :-)

ty for the strange di8
hello zzoozz and bichon
are you getting more snow bichon?
and is it cold and windy, zzoozz?
Not too cold....but we are having so much rain and yes high winds..that flooding is rife...hope it is better where you are, Ruby.
cool (35040F and a little bit windy, but we are very lucky
35 -40F *
qt midnight, it's around 3C which is very warm for Feb
and no rain or snow, so the dogs are drying out and there's less mud in the house
it is around 4c-7c at night...and around 9c-10c during the day.
you have the Gulf Stream, yes?
Thats good to hear then, Ruby, at least the dogs can stay clean looking..lol
It's been snowing so much here. Twice this week
it must be awful, bichon
{{bichon}} has her fluffs to keep her warm
Yes i have seen on the news the amount f snow that has been falling on your side of the water, Bichon, not nice at all.
we are very lucky in Europe and the UK. The snow will probably come all at once in March and kill all the trees!
all the bulbs are several inches up and it's much too early
Yes they are here too, Ruby :-(
Plants that grow from bulbs are very hardy. It's unlikely they are up too early.
22 below here (F) it's gettin' INTERESTING!
Yes i must admit..my bulbs have always pulled through..no matter what the weather throws at them.
Hardy? I meant hearty.
Brrr wrap up warmly, Harp!

hi phan

Last night, Topper said the next storm isn't happening.
nice clue Molly.
ty molly - new word for me
I hope so Molly and ty
That ar is a freaky word
Yes, NBC 4's guy said basically the same thing. But I think it was still too early to say for sure. Sue Palka didn't want to commit to saying that.
yes, freaky
That's funny because Topper said it was too early to be predicting it 10 days out. : )
And you can't trust Sue Palka, she is a robot.
guess it would help to be an entomolgist
I always say that. They are also now talking about the possibility of snow on Wednesday, the day I have my interview!
lunch break...bbl
enjoy, Hego
down to 22 and thinking I need to list!
I ususally list way before that, Nan. Good for you!
And Molly, I always like Sue Palka... her and Bob Ryan. I was upset when NBC 4 let him go.
it's all those babblets that I never see that keeps me from going listless
like ohia!
does the g4r 8 build off of the color?
gr 8...
gr 8 builds off the colour
sigh. thanks, will continue to try and figure out those last 3 ltrs then.

Alas Evan, chat is The Dead Zone these days. *Sniff*
UNE!!!!
:-)
whatever happened to the olden days?
i know, everyone has moved like me to the ipad
I hear the smaller venues are harder to chat with. Cursed technology.
i'm here but my chat's boring anyway!! :)
yes, suggested dr g make an ipad app, but he said it was barely breaking even
i rather thought peeps might pay for an app
L, your chat is NEVER boring.
oh shush lil, you are interesterering
Especially when you're talking about your wenerneener.
that's not what you said the other night molly!
aye, as interesting as a blade of grass nut
yep, can't say it, its against the rules today
and hi nutty and une :)
Yes, but that was a joke that got taken out of context by the humorless.
as interesting as a blade of grass says the gnome mooning the chog
There are humorless people on babble?
the humorless have destroyed this joint. not allowed to talk unless its a clue, pfffffffft
:D molly
hey lilliann :-)
alas my play in here is limited, the ole fit bit tells me i haven't met my goals for the day
Evan, I hesitate to inform you that there are actually people who Babble while on the treadmill.
DArn fitbit.
i suppose i could set the ipad on the eliptical, but fit bit doesn't measure eliptical very accurately and i wouldn't be able to chat anyway
and that was totally not hesitation molly, can't fool these genius brain cells
really molly? treadmil shedmill!!i just go up and down the street doing wheelies on my laptop:)
ON the laptop?
well, not on my laptop, in my chair and playing babble on my laptop...
hmmmm
well, this grid is like pulling teeth, so i think i'll go take my work frustrations out through interpretive dance instead. win/win, get my fit bit satisfied and work out frustration
i forget that on babble we have to say exactly how it is
i meant to say doing wheelies in my my chair(wheelchair)
i'm going to shut up again...well for a few seconds atleast :)

Hi all. Has anyone else had a problem with the babble site today? Mine keeps refreshing itself and slowing down a lot
How do you keep your attention on the road, with such beautiful animals by you, calling for your attention???
Too early for me to tell yet, pisa.
Pida - sorry
one hand on the wheel, one lovin' on the baby LOL
what about flora and belle,une.were they going to adoptive families too?
mine just refreshed itself too pida
lol
no pida, sorry
Seems OK here
they went to long-term fosters while waiting for adopters :-)
Belle was very happy to leave snowy Wisconsin for southern florida :-)
Sensible dog!
:-D
that's good, atleast they're go to loving homes for now and they may well be adopted by them or i'm sure by others
might be my AVG security system. It's been giving me a bit of a hard time lately. Not liking some of the sites I"m going too. Oh well, on with the game, 56 left to go
i hope everything sorts itself out pida
ty lil
Lilli - are you having the same floods up north as they are in the SW?
me and belle would get on well.i hate the cold too.how old are they une?
they were all under 5 -- I believe Jack was 1.5 yrs
i take my hat off to you for doing what you do une.i'd have to keep them all.it must be hard.i can't walk dogs because of my disabilities but i would love to foster cats.my husband doesn't agree though sadly
all 3 were so pretty and very affectionate :-)
Une is a good soul : )
aww, bless them.well, i'm sure the girls will get homes soon
I have 4 dogs that started out as fosters -- that's my limit LOL
hey une, et al
hey doren :-)
Hi Dorens
but i have got all my cats from homes,so i try and do something.i've also made things for a local cat shelter so they could sell them to fund the dogs and cats they have
just found out today my cat has diabetes.... wondering how i'm going to deal with it. He'll need two injections a day
hi dorens
that's great, lilliann
i think 4 is enough une :)
had just been thinking about adopting another rescue to keep him company since Lucy died last year.
sorry to hear that dorens. do you do the injections or the vet?
so sorry doren -- just found out last week that one of my older dogs has arrhythmia -- am now giving her heart meds every 8 hours . . .
Dorens, can't they control it diet, or do you have to give her the shots yourself
That's tough Doren - and for you, Une.
with diet
it would have to be me.. and vet said it was too far gone to be controlled by diet.
sorry une, i'm trying to figure out how to deal with my monthly weekends to visit the grandkids.
doren, if it's any consolation, a good friend's cat lived many yrs after being diagnosed as diabetic
(with shots like what you're describing)
BRB . . .
it is consolation, but now i am going to be restricted... can't go into the city and stay all day and night. and i really don't know how to deal with my weekends away, not to mention the week i have in california in April to visit my son, and other vacations
i suppose it's similar to us having diabetes and having injections?
is there no-one else that could do them for you when you are away?
people who do petsitting will also give injections
yes lil, but humans can go once a day ( i think) and it seems this will be twelve hours apart. i guess i'll have to start spending bigger bucks. oh well
yes,animals bills are always more expensive sadly.does it have to be twice a day.can your cat not have it daily or someone you know that could do it when you're away.who looks after your cat when you're away?
I'm sure that you'll sort something out for your cats, that works well for you in the end.
And for them, of course!
all these questions remain to be answered... first i have to have him go stay at the vets for a few days while they test and find out dosage, which can take some tiime. So sad... I've had friends look in on the cat, and also the kid across the street... super responsible but 14 year old kids. don't think i can ask them to do shots! my friends yes, but twice a day?
I'm sure that once they've tried it, they won't mind. That's what friends do.
yup, will definitely work out something... there are worse situations in the world, it's just kind of a shock. but we will work through it
hugs to you, dorens . . .
thanks une, and back at you
I know people who board their dogs when they are on vacation. Can you do that with cats?
well, once the dosage is found, your cat might not need 2 a day, so it's a wait and see game and i'm sure people will help you out dorens.i would if i was there but sadly not.everything will turn out ok hin:)
yes molly
can do, but he'd just be miserable. My daughter has offered to take him, but traveling is really not his thing, and it takes cats so long to become comfortable in new surroundings. think i'll just have to rely on the kindness of friends, and pay them back in kind (wine, meals, etc)
I'm sure they'd be happy to help, doren
yup, that's what friends are for. i just hate to have to ask, but visiting the grandkids is NOT going to stop
of course!! :-)
we did that with our cat at Christmas and i hated doing it for the fact that we got her from kennels in the first place and i thought she may remember but she seemed to be ok, so we were told
and fireworks. anyone need a clue?
congrats!
doren's, true friends will always help whatever! :)
Congrats, Dorens
wtg dorens!! :)
Also fireworks!
Would love to help clue but time's not on my side today! BBL and congrats to all of you in advance!
liz, just read back and missed what you said about the floods.we've had bad rain and floods in places near here but we're ok thanks
woohoo, liz!!
congrats liz, and i'm off to eat my dinner
Wtg liz!! :)
I sometimes wonder (when I read these things here) if a "pet barter" web site would be helpful. As in, people in the same communities willing to trade pet care.
Stay safe all :)
bye liz, tc hin :)
terrific idea, molly!!
ditto une:)
back in a bit *poof*
when we were looking for care for our cat at christmas, we could get a home cat service which came every so often throughout the day or certain times but that's fine but i never know when my cat wants to go out and do her business.sometimes she's out all day and other times a couple of hours or 10 minutes but mostly she will sleep throughout the day and go out about 10/11pm.it cost a lot more doing that then kennels plus we still had to buy food and then there is the heating of the house and lights, but here you can also get house sitters who will stay in your house and look after pets, but i know they are vetted but it could cost me more in amenities.my next door neighbour's daughter has her dog in a sitter's house and it costs £12 a day and she feed him and she has 4 dogs of her own and he lives in her house and apparently loves the company

very confusing i know
western coppers, what a western sheriff would call himself
I am a la6

but saying that i shouldn't say that as there would be a fight between the both

bytw,,wtg joso!! :) for earlier
ar + 2 ltr article + common vowel + ego
molly, good idea. geez i wish it would hurry and get warm up here.
ty....never would have gotten that one...
i went to a shelter this afternoon and it was scary. i left.
evening all
yes, it was a tricky one.
is tr 8/40 a compound word?
hi jess
hi jess
Not really Pen
has min been here?
hello Jes
Well it is, but an obscure one
ty
sorry to hear that TO, about the shelter
I have not seen Min, but the PB is all decorated in party stuff for her : D
well i would havetoughened up real quick if the power had not come back.
tr8, you expect toes and fingers to have them, but not overgrown shrubbery
got it...done!
well done, Pen!
thanks, joso
ty!
still not nice though TO
that is only 7 letters
Yay!!Wtg pen!! :)
;oD
congrats pen
tyvm
i assume the word is like three of what fingers and toes grow?
joso,when you clued that 8 earlier, soodle and i were singing the sounds of the song, 'birds do it, bees do it....
not my last word, TO...the ending is right...beginning is large plant...
but your clue was longer and sounded more like the song
let me look, i don't think i have a large plant
well, it reminded us of the song :)
REALLY large...
tr8 is a an ash, oak, elm etc and what you hammer in
It's not really shrubbery TO
t mean the things mother nature is hell bent on erdicating fromt he northeastern us? THAT large [;ant?
or we have one on the end of our toes/finges
for shame. i know that word. but i am mor in tent on my first hot meal in three days.
a large plant that starts with tr
TO, a big plant with a trunk, as in aelm, oak ash, etc and then what you would hit with a hammer
yes, a hot meal would mean more TO :)
and my bonnie butter cake for dessert.
yes, had a 3 day powerout here over x-mas time, but had candles, woodstove, and a propane BBQ so it was more of an adventure than a hardship
Butter cake makes everything better : )
my eyes are going funny now looking at this grid, can i have a clue for the enword please
no source of heat here excpet gas stove burners. bot very effective
n, HEAT make severything better. I had it cranked up while i was out all day jusr in case.
christmas day joso?

mlf, started grief counseling today. seem to have nade some headway already.
Granny, I sorry for your loss.
granny my mom has gone to some of those groups for grieveing as well recently
So sorry Granny i understand recent loss myself
just last year
bless you phan, it goes back a long way. i was brought up to have the stiff upper lip and soldier on. haven't even grieved for my beloved dad yet.
granny how long ago did he pass away? i lost mine as well
well, then good for you for finally dealing with your loss. It is never easy.
{{hugs}} mlf, it's hard isn't it?
granny yes it is
rose, i read that you have begun grief counseling. smart.
dad died 12 years ago, then my soul sister about 4 years ago, my mum last november, then MIL last december. i haven't allowed myself to grieve, as i have had to support those around me.
i hope it gives you strength soon
sometimes being the backbone for others sucks...
thanx TO....it's long overdue, and darling don is right in there beside me, giving me the support i need to work through it all.
granny i need to cry more myself over my losses as well. the woman who lived next door to us and was one of my mom's closest friends is dying and we may lose her very soon
wonderful
i am going to hit the hay have not had a decent sleep in three days with the storm and no heat and all. hagn all
poor mlf, my heart goes out to you, hun. another death to deal with....it doesn't get any easier either.
Good night, TO
night, phan. night, rose night, fan.
granny no have lost a lot of people and two pets in the past 10 yrs or so
nite owl
:)
heading out myself
mlf, when dad died, i as the eldest of 5 stepped up to the mark, and tried to take care of mum, she lived 45 mins away from me, i worked full time, and shortly after don and i were married, his mum moved in.
owl go stay n a hotel
wow granny
sleep well TO and phan. see you tomorrow. xoxox
bye phan
Niters TO...stay safe and warm!
<------!!!FW!!! phew!!
so i couldn't grieve for my dad, had no time, when my 'sister' died, i had to help her hubby take care of their 2 girls, no time to grieve fully for her either.
WTG JILLI!!!
congrats jilly
granny i have had cried some but not eas to do when your spouse just stands there and their are anger issues as well
then my ex was diagnosed with brain cancer, so supported my sons through their grieving, no closure for me there. then last year happened. with my 2 beloved dogs, jonah and scottie going as well.
So sorry for you granny, but it is great that you recognize it and get yourself the support you need. (((hugs)))
ty all, but really do have to get to bed. Early day tomorrow and up too late...see you all tomorrow
it just keeps piling on doesnt it granny?
bye jilly hve fun
hello again friends. Granny I am so glad you are acknowledging all your losses now. It is never too late for couselling or grieving. Hugs and blessings to you
NOW, i am crying and weeping all the time, as i said several unresolved grief issues to deal with. i think this last lot of surgery tipped the balance. no, i'm not crazy...yet...
granny we are all a little crazy and their is nothing wrong with that lol
thanx, bugs. so, mlf, any time you want to talk, rant, whatever, my email addy is right here in my profile.
thanks granny
