flip hi all

did I break the chat?

1:07 am

hi Dee, I just came in - seems very quiet

hi flosey! was thinking the exact same thing

1:08 am

almost eerie

How's jili, flosey? I haven't seen her here in ages.

1:09 am

Ihaven't seen her either Dee, have missed bridge last 3 weeks - have only been out to see Dr. - hope to play this Monday though - feeling a bit housebound

I bet you are going stir crazy. How was your dr appt, and how are you feeling now?

1:10 am

went well, just keep on with meds

Hopefully, the long term meds will wipe it out.

1:11 am

feeling a lot better but still didn't go to Sat. afternoon bridge - mostly elderly and perhaps more inclined to pick up bugs

That was really kind of you. I always feel irritated when I go someplace and have someone cough on me :)

1:12 am

how are you feeling Dee? and your hubby?

hubby feels better, but still has an occasional cough and stuffiness. I am still on meds, not over it yet, and it has triggered an IBS flareup... hoping this will all pass soon.

1:14 am

Flosey, it's been a long haul for you. I'm glad you are on the mend. The sun might help abit! Imagine, we had a "weather alert" for the hot temps!

wow, saan

1:14 am

not fond of it, myself... I think it is the texture I don't care for.

1:19 am

should be creamy, is that what you don't like?

yes

1:20 am

ah

1:20 am

ah

I try it about once a year. I keep thinking I will like it LOL

1:21 am

do you make it in the oven?

I have never made it. I have only tasted it in restaurants.

1:22 am

ah, one son's wife is from Italian family, that's where I had it first

That could make a huge difference. I really love most Italian food, so maybe made with those spices, I might like it better.

1:24 am

I just got on myself, I did get a email from her, shes been having some pain

1:57 am

yuck--attack of the boxes again

1:57 am

oh dear, hope she isn't pushing herself too hard

1:57 am

oh wow, pugs, that is most annoying

1:58 am

it is and refreshing dont seem to be helping much---its very windy here so I dont know if thats part of the trouble or not

1:59 am

did dracula pay you another visit? lol

1:59 am

I don't know either, pugs, not very computer literate

2:00 am

no pugs, no visits tonight

2:00 am

but that is FW, last word, se6/18

2:00 am

thats good :)

2:01 am

SIL has 4 day weekend over Easter, so they'll be coming here on Friday - this is the daughter with little guy

2:01 am

congrats Flosey

2:02 am

little grandson, I mean

2:02 am

that will be nice for you

2:03 am

yes - never a dull moment with him around, so prescious

2:03 am

glad you got rid of that cold to enjoy

2:03 am

are you having a egg hunt for him

2:03 am

must get to bed now, goodnight my dear, hope no more red boxes tonight

2:04 am

good night Flosey--take care, hugs

2:04 am

yes, that's what grampa is looking forward to - hiding easter eggs

2:05 am

we use to have such fun when our kids were small - we made rhymes for them to follow in their search

2:05 am

lol---you guys will have fun

2:06 am

for sure, good luck with the grid

2:06 am

I use to hold big hunts for my sisters kids when they were young

2:06 am

thank you

2:47 am

good morning all :)

2:48 am

:) good morning Sprite

2:48 am

cooee and g'day from me

2:48 am

*hugs pugs and rose* How are you, my darlings? Rose, I answered your email. Extra *hug* for you.

2:49 am

Hi Rose, hugs to you both

2:49 am

hello dear friends

2:49 am

thanx dear sprite.

2:49 am

I had a rough night but okay now

2:49 am

How are you Sprite

2:49 am

what was making it rough, pug?

2:50 am

Rose hope you are feeling better too

2:50 am

aww pugs. hugs and kisses sweetie.

2:51 am

I couldnt sleep for one then somehow I broke open the place on my arm but I got that stopped

2:51 am

oh sweetie... *hugs* Call the hospital tomorrow, and tell them it opened again. It is not supposed to do that, darling.

2:52 am

well I go to the doc tuesday but if it opens again I will

2:52 am

pugs i did email you also. as well as liz and ruby. if i don't see them please ensure that they know.

2:53 am

well errrr that is what you said the last time, pugs.

2:53 am

okay Rose I will

2:53 am

so are you feeling better now Rose

2:54 am

thanx dears. sprite, how are you feeling at the moment, hun?

2:54 am

yes, pugs, the email explains it all.

2:54 am

worried about pugs, tbh.

2:55 am

now there is no reason to worry Sprite---I will be okay

2:55 am

*sorry pugs, i am fully aware you are here* sprite, at least she is now getting the treatment she so desperately needs.

2:56 am

I still think you should call them and tell them about the bleeding.

2:56 am

oh, is it bleeding? fresh blood ? or just haemoserous loss ?

2:57 am

it opened up again last night, rose

2:57 am

it didnt bleed that much last night---its right in the big muscle of my arm and everytime I use my arm it pulls on it

2:58 am

it has clotted back now

2:58 am

ahhh, but the pack was only removed yesterday? healing won't take place fully for another 7 days.

3:00 am

its going to be in the 70's today and then snow monday night :( I hope it dont kill my lilac blooms

3:00 am

i am pretty sure the wound was quite deep. it has to heal from the bottom up. there is no use in the skin healing, if the wound bed is still raw. otherwise pugs, you may get another 'sinus' full of fluid/pus.

3:01 am

I know, rose. But it bled the first day for more than 5 hours. And heavily. And now this night again. So I am worried... about blood loss and about it not being bandaged/taped well enough.

3:02 am

Rose, he did go deep and its about the size of a dime so it will have to heal from the inside out. Ive been keeping them very clean with bio soap

3:02 am

okay....pugs, can you get your sis to help you apply a light compression bandage. and you need to put a sling on, hun.

3:03 am

yes I can if you think its ness.

3:04 am

we DO

3:05 am

lol--okay ---soon as she gets up I will so please stop worring---but thank you for your thoughtfulness

3:05 am

:) Thanks for being careful with yourself

3:05 am

YES PUGS....please try it. and it's only going to be for a few days. if you keep your arm in the sling, and protect the wound, you could remove the bandage tomorrow morning and see how you go.

3:06 am

and leave the sling on, until you have to see the doctor on tuesday.

3:06 am

Iam trying too---I must of turned wrong or something to pull on it

3:06 am

and as for me, I am fine. I still have ankles, I slept well, I didn't bleed, am not overstimulated or in much pain, and I am planning on doing things one at a ti4 today.

3:06 am

alright--will do so

3:07 am

good for you, sprite.

3:07 am

golden star for Sprite! :)

3:07 am

:)

3:08 am

Oh started you puzzle Sprite---I like it very much--so cute too

3:08 am

pugs, the idea is to allow the blleding to settle, and also allow the wound to heal with no undue stress on it.

3:08 am

am glad you like it! Just had the urge to make one again.

3:09 am

was you able to go to church today Rose

3:10 am

have you guys seen jbp? Shes not been on all week that I seen

3:10 am

haven't seen her either

3:10 am

*choke* and i actually finished it...posted a comment...and yes, pugs. went to service it was palm sunday. unfortunately whilst standing during the service, my lower back went into spasm. dod had to help me to sit down again. * sigh *

3:10 am

and I like the pics too Sprite but your hubby is so covered up I cant hardly see him very well

3:11 am

true, pugs, he often wears a hat. Will find you a 'face' picture too.

3:12 am

ahh Rose--you are just going to have to slow it down some and maybe return to the pain pills for awhile

3:12 am

rose, listen to me, hun. Please SIT DOWN during the service for now. Wait until you are well again before you do it standing up. Your body is clearly telling you it is too much. You don't realise how much pain your body is processing and handling.

3:12 am

and then we went to watch deacon play his football match. it was a scream...he kicked a goal...and don got some great pics. i will post them in my profile soon.

3:12 am

glad you liked the puzzle, rose :)

3:12 am

is that his boat in the pic Sprite? its very nice

3:12 am

please do :)

3:13 am

yes please do Rose

3:14 am

*giggle* when don sent the pics to son, simon, son's response was great pics...i had to laugh...don is a professional photographer, with an university degree to prove it.

3:15 am

no, we don't have a boat, only canoes. That black one is not from one of the canoe people, I think. Just happened to be in the picture.

3:15 am

lol rose!

3:15 am

what type of pics does he like to take Rose

3:16 am

my don has 3 university degrees...i don't think my sons realise it...he is sooo clever.

3:16 am

good grief, that is a lot.

3:16 am

Rose, I hate saying this but I just cant see you returning to work right now and to be on your feet 8 hours or however many hours

3:17 am

pugs, if it makes a good pic, he will photograph it. and he says some incredible shots, where the rest of us just walk on by.

3:17 am

does he sell any of them Rose

3:18 am

it's okay, pugs. it's not until the end of april, and then only 2 hours for 2 days/week for a fortnight. then they increase by 2 hours/fortnight.

3:19 am

if he did, we would be multi-millionaires, several ti5 over.

3:20 am

maybe not such a bad idea then

3:20 am

why dosent he then? Rose

3:21 am

when you guys go on your world tour you should have some grand photos to show off

3:22 am

*giggle* i found out why the other day....didn't know before...he's worth a pack of money...i have to admit i was sneaky and peeked at his mail, which he left lying around.

3:22 am

roflol

3:22 am

enough to let you retire? (just asking)

3:24 am

sprite, love, yes....and now i understand why he keeps saying he has enough to allow me to retire.

3:24 am

sprite has anything came about on your job search yet

3:24 am

are you going to then Rose

3:25 am

good. Consider it, darling. Seriously consider it. There are so many other things you can enjoy... if your body still lets you, that is.

3:25 am

pugs, sprite, i have to be 'rehabbed' first. which will be about july/august.

3:25 am

Sprite's right Rose--better enjoy now before its too late to

3:26 am

not yet, pugs. I am so worthless when it comes to promoting myself and my skills.

3:26 am

good, rose. Take your ti4.

3:26 am

dont talk about yourself like that Sprite. That is far far from the truth

3:27 am

send me the addy, sprite. they will then find out on what they are missing....lolol

3:27 am

roflollllll

3:27 am

and then all you have to say at your interview is...oh ?? yes !! of course !!

3:28 am

hahahaha I am picturing it

3:28 am

and hey presto !! our beloved sprite lands herself the bestus job....

3:28 am

Rose, Don needs to take a good pic of you in your nurse's outfit to post on here for us

3:29 am

what?? no tutu ???

3:29 am

right Rose, with a huge Name sign on her door

3:29 am

no, it is the truth, pugs. I am really lousy at that. I seem to miss the most rudimentair commercial streak.

3:30 am

well you can add the tutu one too-lol

3:30 am

of course with tutu, tsk

3:31 am

sprite, try sitting down at a quiet moment...write down all the positive things you see about yourself...then show it to hubby...ask him if you have missed anything.

3:31 am

Sprite do you and your family have a easter dinner

3:32 am

Oh I think we should email her our list of things about her

3:32 am

add hubby's insight. and there you have it, dear. your resume/portfo5.

3:32 am

I don't think so, pugs. Probably easter breakfast, and some egg searching. It depends on the kids, I have asked them what they want to do.

3:32 am

good idea, pugs. do you think sprite has enough bytes to open such lists??

3:32 am

lol rose... I wish I could do it like that.

3:33 am

I dont know Rose--lol

3:34 am

I know many positive things about myself... but they are not really marketable skills

3:34 am

sprite, sweetheart...as you say so often to us...have faith in yourself. you are a worthy person...not just as a friend, but as a colleague in the workplace.

3:36 am

Sprite does your area have like summer camps? Those places uses conselars alot

3:36 am

but they require some offical degree.

3:36 am

or can you just open your own and start on a small scale

3:37 am

what do you need to do to get that

3:37 am

and sprite ??? what you consider as not really marketable skill...in fact...to a future employer...may be well what that employer is looking for in a future employee.

3:37 am

rose, the way my last work ended, I still kind of bear the scars from my colleagues... great friends one day, petty enemies the next, just out of jealousy.

3:37 am

brb--coffee

3:38 am

flood the market, sweetie. send your resume to everyone and his dog.

3:39 am

lol, I think the dog will want me... I am great with animals, lolol. Yeah, I might send around my resume, that is not such a bad idea. The long disability period doesn't help matters much.

3:39 am

fireflies, btw

3:39 am

their loss, dear heart. one day you will find the perfect place for you...it is out there. grit your teeth. stick that gorgeous chin out. and say...this is me...look...and wish you had it..

3:40 am

WTG SPRITE!!!

3:40 am

hehehe love that picture, rose

3:40 am

already Sprite? w2g

3:40 am

well, sprite...you need to include that in your resume...

3:40 am

will put it on my resume: is good at playing babble.

3:41 am

snap, rose, lolol

3:41 am

roflol

3:42 am

some employer is looking for someone who is bilingual...or more...and voila....there you are!! mention that, too.

3:42 am

Sprite maybe you could charge for a job like that over the internet

3:42 am

what I have been thinking is to find myself a really simple job nearby. Like cassiere (is that the same in english? in the grocery store.

3:43 am

thats alot of standing Sprite

3:43 am

have been thinking to find a way to market my skills over the internet, pugs. Like counsellor through email.

3:43 am

no, it is sitting down, pugs. Behind the cash register.

3:44 am

do it---what do you have to lose?

3:44 am

I meant the internet thing

3:45 am

sprite...cashier..

3:46 am

yeah, am looking into that. It is all rather complicated, because I still have a disability benefit too. If I try this and it does not work, they may cut down my benefit anyway and I will be left without income.

3:46 am

ah, thanks rose.

3:46 am

I understand that Sprite

3:47 am

okay, then, sweetheart. you need to check how much your payment decreases by how much you earn.

3:48 am

rose, it is more complicated than that. If they think I am able to earn a certain amount of money, they will decrease my benefit straight away, whether I am actually earning that money or not.

3:49 am

thats how ssi is here too---they want you to be totally useless more or less

3:49 am

soooo....what you are saying, sprite...is that you need a guarantee that you have a job which pays more than the benefit.

3:49 am

exactly. They make it incredibly hard to try out and see what you can and cannot do, alas.

3:49 am

eeek...sprite....that is not good.

3:49 am

exactly, rose.

3:50 am

if they think you can do anything they will cut you off or if someone calls them seeing you do this or that they will check up on that

3:50 am

okay...i, personally, have no problems with you staying 'stum'.

3:51 am

yes pugs, it is the same thing here. Lift one load of laundry and if they know, next thing is they cut you off and tell you to go find a job lifting heavy loads.

3:52 am

yeah but even if I would do that, rose, and especially when I want to market my skills through the internet, I would almost need an alias to work under.

3:52 am

sprite?? just a thought!! DON'T DO THE WASHING!!!!

3:52 am

that does put you in a bit of a pickle jar Sprite

3:53 am

roflolllllll rose!

3:53 am

i so want to transplant you both, with all you consider near and dear to australia...our system is so much better.

3:54 am

sure does, pugs. It is complicated. Hence my thought that I might find myself a simple job, to earn at least what I get as a benefit now. I could build up the coaching thing next to that. But I am afraid I dont' have the energy to do both.

3:54 am

I'd come straight away, rose, if my family would join me. I think you live in a wonderful country. With beautiful, kind people.

3:54 am

we have to prove to the government, that we can earn a decent wage before the government starts to reduce our benefits.

3:55 am

wow that is so much better, rose. And such a stimulant to get back to earning money. No risk attached.

3:55 am

only way is if you worked for someone that would pay in cash so as not to be reported and here thats hard to find

3:55 am

here as well, pugs. Almost impossible.

3:56 am

sprite...another thought...if you can work....and get the same money as the benefit...it would help you so much emotionally.

3:56 am

yes it would, rose. Absolutely.

3:56 am

but what if she finds she cant Rose---its hard to get it back once you give it up

3:57 am

or it is here anyway

3:57 am

it is the same here, pug. Almost impossible to get it back if you need it. So, am still trying to figure out a way to start earning money again without ruining my whole benefit and all.

3:58 am

have to admit...when i was newly separated and divorced from first hubby...the only way i could support 3 boys, was through the under-counter payments, from a couple of local businesses.

3:59 am

I know here on my sister if she has over a certain amount in her account they will take that

3:59 am

not saying sprite has to give up her benefit...she needs to find a job which pays her more than the benefit.

3:59 am

sounds like it was really necessary, rose. Good for you. I wouldn't know one single local business that would pay undercounter, alas.

4:00 am

sprite, i worked for a local florist. i had my own car, and so was able to do her deliveries. look around sweetie. you may be surprised.

4:00 am

Rose, that had to be a scarey time for you---my heart goes out to you

4:01 am

the only ones usually being paid undercounter here are the domestic helps, the lady who comes clean your house. But that is work I cannot do.

4:01 am

awesome, rose. I so admire your courage.

4:02 am

yeah...first hubby did not declare his income to the department of income tax...he so flew close to the wind..

4:02 am

sprite, my darling...check out every ad...

4:02 am

sprite would they pay you at a local news office to write like a advice person(kind of like dear abby thing) you could use another name to write under

4:03 am

things are automated now here. If you don't earn under the counter, everything is known. To the tax office, to the benefit office, to the pension funds, everywhere.

4:03 am

am doing that, rose :)

4:03 am

my darling sprite....xoxox

4:03 am

it is an idea, pugs

4:04 am

you could take in laundry to do for others--lol

4:04 am

can you tell I feel like I am in a locked room and I want out but they hid the key somewhere else? :D

4:04 am

lol pugs!

4:05 am

I feel the same way at times myself Sprite

4:05 am

it is rotten complicated. But we will find a way, pugs :)

4:05 am

thanks for the hugs and kisses, rose :)

4:07 am

Rose went to the loo--lol

4:07 am

how did it go for Rob yesterday Sprite

4:08 am

he is there now, pugs. Will come back around dinner today.

4:08 am

or is that today(on his canoe thing)

4:09 am

yes, it is today. So I have to do some shopping, not much thank God. Am thinking of going in an hour, then cook part of dinner already.

4:09 am

Is that how you met him? Out taking canoe classes

4:09 am

nope, rose went for another drink...lol

4:10 am

squirrel!

4:10 am

what are you fixing Sprite

4:10 am

also watching the news...cyclone ita hit our coast last night.

4:11 am

what type of drink is that Rose? a hot toddy? lol

4:11 am

no, met him through work. We both worked for the construction union, helping people get an unemployment benefit if they needed it. We liked eachother through the telephone.

4:11 am

then one day we were fooling around, it was my birthday and I mock chastised him about not sending me a nice card.

4:12 am

*shame-faced* not gonna tell you, pugs. considering how you feel about alcohol...but then again, i am not HIM!!!

4:12 am

and he faxed me an invitation for a canoe trip... my very first ever. I took him up on it and the rest is history.

4:12 am

no but YOU are taking meds--not to good to mix

4:12 am

will you be ok, with ita running amok?

4:13 am

how cool Sprite!

4:13 am

good morning

4:14 am

in moderation and when staying home, it is safe to mix meds and alcohol. Just not with all kind of meds, and not in quantity or when you have to go out.

4:14 am

Howdy Ruby! feeling better today

4:14 am

hi ruby :)

4:14 am

ugghhh, pugs...dinner soon. sprite, ita quite a way north of us. we are okay.

4:14 am

whats for dinner tonight Rose

4:14 am

g'day ruby...have emailed you, dear friend.

4:15 am

pugs, quiche lorraine...right up ruby's alley...

4:15 am

oh and I am making spaghetti sauce today, pugs. With greens and meat. So tonight all we have left to do is cook the spaghetti and warm the sauce.

4:16 am

sounds good Sprite!

4:16 am

*move over sprite* i'm a-coming home!!!

4:16 am

with garlic bread too

4:17 am

i so looove pasta...in any shape or form...

4:17 am

and big juicey meatballs too --yummy

4:17 am

It's lovely to see my friends, aches and pains and money worries we all share!

4:17 am

thought it was chicken for you Rose--lol

4:18 am

yummy, garlic bread. Good idea.

4:18 am

ohhhh...pugs....i have died and gone to heaven...lolol

4:18 am

all those things seem to vanish when on here with you guys

4:18 am

pugs, red meat x 3/week....the others are all white meat/fish.

4:19 am

yeah, nothing like spending time here with you guys.

4:19 am

poor pugs...saving you the best bit of the garlic bread...which do you want??

4:19 am

yeah that heart stopping burger makes up for the 3 red meats in one setting--lol

4:20 am

roflollllll

4:20 am

I like the crunchy end--lol

4:20 am

ok, I have to be off. A big *hug* for all three of you. And to all a blessed day and a peaceful night.

4:20 am

li4pl should be in here. It's a legitimate word from the glass biz

4:21 am

sorry, sprite...the crunchy ends just disappeared down pug's throat.

4:21 am

same to you Sprite--love and hugs

4:21 am

np I like the middle part best ;)

4:21 am

{{sprit}}

4:21 am

hugs and kisses my darling sprite. enjoy your day, sweetie. love to rob.

4:22 am

Rose are you going to try it tomorrow(the pool)

4:22 am

4:23 am

It was raining pink cherry blossoms, too

4:23 am

yes, pugs...doing okay at the moment

4:23 am

4:24 am

I saw it, rose, and feel sorry that you are having such a tough time!! I wish there was something we could all do.

4:25 am

4:25 am

I hope you well then tomorrow Rose,,will make sure to pray for you too that all goes well during and afterwards

4:27 am

4:31 am

pugs, my friend. thanx for your prayers. I WILL DO THIS!!

4:32 am

I have all the faith in you that you will---I just wish you didnt have to endure so much pain as well

4:35 am

*smiling at you, dear pugs* unfortunately....i do have to endure the pain.

4:36 am

yeah I know but it still sucks that you do

4:37 am

pain, to me, is a state of mind...i can bear it...what i have now is zilch to what i had post-op.

4:37 am

Rose does your church hold a special sunrise breakfast for easter sunday

4:38 am

I can take pain pretty well too Rose but it still isnt a very pleasent thing

4:38 am

its funny how the mind can block that isnt it

4:38 am

yes, love. not sure if don and i are going...it totally depends on how i get through the night.

4:39 am

hi Dorens, am just finishing up

9:10 am

hi to crossy too

9:10 am

ah, ships crossing in the night, or morning in this case

9:12 am

seems I have been forgetting to finish a grid when I start it in the morning, so I'm trying to stick my nose to the gridstone, so to speak, and finish it

9:12 am

happens to me to ally. I still don't quite want to chalk it up to age

9:13 am

lol, I know... could have SWorn i HAD fw, BUT, noooo

9:13 am

so down goes the rating for a whole month

9:14 am

but it seems to happen at least once a month these days

9:14 am

for me it does

9:15 am

just might be time for me to let go of caring about ratings!

9:15 am

at least until retirement

9:16 am

but I AM retired, lol

9:16 am

It MAY make you feel better to know that this _)*)(* game loaes words when you are not looking!

9:16 am

I make it a point to check constantly! It is not only s that it loses!

9:16 am

loses

9:17 am

well, one day I had fw, and when I happened to check that evening, I wasn't finished! So I finished, and then I wrote to Dr. G. and told him what happened.. and he said that sometime (rarely), there could be a server interruption, so always refresh after fw... well, we have server interruptions all the time, so that makes sense

9:18 am

with me it's more of a memory interruption!

9:19 am

LOL, that too!

9:19 am

well, off to enjoy grandkids while i can.

9:19 am

have fun, Dorens!

9:20 am

enjoy the day everyone. i am glorying in this beautiful maryland weather… birds singing everywhere, flowers up..

9:20 am

9:21 am

morning, all!

9:23 am

howdy suze!

9:24 am

hi crossy! I have to leave soon :-(

9:24 am

reading back: I think it has been well over a year since I have peeked at the ratings

9:25 am

I essentially never look at them

9:25 am

however, since I, on average, finish only one in every seven grids, I think it is not an issue:)

9:34 am

ok, now I have to run, see you all later!

11:40 am

snow storm in iowa tonight as well. 90% chance.

11:40 am

I was watching a documentary on the winter storms we had here in the UK. The sky didn't fall in but a lot of houses ended up in the sea when the erosion by the waves was 2 metres instead of 2cms a month.

11:41 am

<-- irritable today because of this.

11:41 am

I'm soaking up as much of the warm weather as I can. It's supposed to go down into the 30's at night, mid-week.

12:38 pm

Speaking of as5 it's almost time for The Kentucky Derby where all the people at Churchill Downs pretend they are British for the day

12:39 pm

..but not the IRS..

12:40 pm

do they serve Tea there Molly?

12:40 pm

Probably the Lon Guyland Iced kind.

12:41 pm

But Mint Juleps are the drink of the day.

12:42 pm

I was looking at the wrong fo ty

12:43 pm

I make a mean mint julep

12:44 pm

there is fe fi fo in the grid.. what does that mean?

12:45 pm

It means there is a giant sniffing around

12:45 pm

*bets fum is in the next grid*

12:46 pm

Another lovely visualization from fairy tales (I'll grind his bones to make my bread) Not unlike "down will come baby, cradle and all" No wonder so many people are in therapy.

12:47 pm

12:48 pm

*fibula toast* for breakfast

12:49 pm

Goes well with toad in the hole

12:51 pm

what's toad in the hole?

12:51 pm

any relation to spotted dick?

12:52 pm

Sausage baked in Yorkshire Pudding

12:52 pm

ugh

12:53 pm

talk about reptile disfunction

12:54 pm

I can't even get into Spotted Dick and what a ridiculous name that is for a pudding

12:54 pm

I've seen the Brits mention it her.. sounds like an odd name for a dish

12:54 pm

here

12:55 pm

I wonder if you have to take antibiotics after eating it?

12:55 pm

It gets worse. You can buy canned Spotted Dick

12:56 pm

oh boy

12:56 pm

bet that is yummy

12:57 pm

I imagine it is wonderful a fourth course in a Spam dinner.

12:57 pm

It's not like you can take shortcuts talking about courses at a dinner party

12:57 pm

Gerald and Beatrice give the best...

12:59 pm

..am I rambling now?

12:59 pm

:D

1:00 pm

It's all that time spent in the back seats of Ramblers

1:00 pm

As a Brit, I absolutely adore spotted dick and toad in the hole

1:01 pm

..my formative years

1:01 pm

I think it's one of those things that you like because you grew up with it movie.. I get it

1:02 pm

but WHO came up with those names?

1:03 pm

but it's probably better than spotted toad and ...

1:04 pm

*Need a break. Water accident.*

1:04 pm

ha

1:18 pm

What is spotted dick?

1:19 pm

not sure.. I think it's a pudding

1:20 pm

okay, that I could eat if it's not made with wierd ingredients, like blood

1:20 pm

I think it is raisins or currants and pudding

1:21 pm

not sure of how they shape it on the plate however

1:21 pm

Yeah Bich, like that Black and White Pudding. Who thought that recipe was a good idea?

1:21 pm

It's a suet pudding with raisins and cinnamon

1:21 pm

I've heard of blood pudding. Not something I'd want to try

1:22 pm

Wait suet, beef fat. Not for me. I like milk based pudding

1:22 pm

And ther'es nowt wrong with toad in holes with onion gravy Ru

1:22 pm

Vegatable suet

1:22 pm

I didn't know there was such a thing lili

1:23 pm

I'm not a lover of it, but then i'm not into puddings much

1:23 pm

Aye, you can get vegetable suet

1:23 pm

Vegetable fat???

1:23 pm

call me silly.. I just like vanilla pudding

1:24 pm

You can add other fruits, like cranberries and blueberries

1:24 pm

I do like a apple or rhubabrb crumble occasionally

1:24 pm

Vegetable fat, like olive or canola oil

1:24 pm

While we are on the subject, why is Yorkshire Pudding called pudding when it's bread?

1:25 pm

mo 6/24, pls

1:25 pm

we get shredded vegetable suet here

1:25 pm

What is it made of lili?

1:25 pm

It's not really a bread as there is no yeast in it

1:26 pm

Spotted dick or yorkshire pudding Bichon?

1:27 pm

vegetable suet

1:27 pm

There is no yeast in a lot of breads and they are still called bread

1:27 pm

Haven't got a clue i just buy it, but haven't got any at the moment...i normally get atora suet, it's in a box

1:28 pm

Like soda bread

1:28 pm

Or a sponge bread

1:28 pm

Here is one explanation. Of course, it goes back to class structure. "Yorkshire Pudding was originally used as a first course filler for poor people who could not afford much meat."

1:28 pm

mo 6/24?

1:29 pm

hi, folks

1:29 pm

Hi welki

1:29 pm

Well, i don't know Molly as i never named it in the first place!i think because it was eaten as a pudding as it was cheap to make and you could put fruit in it

1:29 pm

I haven't got it, sorry Bichon

1:29 pm

i think crisco is our version of vegetable suet

1:29 pm

Hi Welki

1:30 pm

Palm oil with rice flour is vegetable suet

1:30 pm

yes, but not very good for you [palm oil]

1:31 pm

mo + the *** offensive in Southeast Asia was a big event in the war....add plural letter...

1:31 pm

that makes sense, bichon - was wondering how it could be shredded. the rice flour would help

1:32 pm

palm oil is really bad for you

1:32 pm

gosh.. death by spotted dick

1:33 pm

I had friends in Yorkshire and we had yorkshire puddings first with gravy and then more with our Sunday roast...i was very full! people do put fruit in aswell, or jam and eat them for pudding

1:33 pm

don't know how unhealthy it is, but i know there are environmental/humanitarian issues related to it

1:35 pm

Apparently beef suet is best and it dates back to the 1850's

1:36 pm

it is the best.. but not for cows

1:38 pm

it was called 'spooted dick' because of it's cylindrical shape, but was also known as 'spotted dog pudding' because people were embarrassed to say spotted dick!!

Hey. Lill, enjoy!

1:46 pm

1:46 pm

spotted dick always sounds like a condition to me.

1:47 pm

funny, Ru

1:47 pm

1:47 pm

or a weird skin rash...

1:48 pm

Hiya Car!

2:22 pm

Donald Duck comics were banned in Finland because he doesn't wear pants.

2:23 pm

the suspense mounts...

2:23 pm

I had heard that.

2:23 pm

He's a duck for Pete's sake.

2:23 pm

It's amazing that he wears a shirt and hat!

2:23 pm

that Donald does not wear pants, or that filand has a trowser fetish? lol

2:24 pm

Finland*

2:24 pm

We do not have a babbler from there I think. Too bad, would of been fun to ask...

2:25 pm

I thought Scandinavians were more broad minded.

2:25 pm

I had heard that one as a kid...loved it!

2:25 pm

which brings up the big question. Is goofy actually a dog, or a human that is heavy into cosplay? lol

2:26 pm

and then explain Pluto.

2:26 pm

I cannot. All I can say is that I love the long cartoon they made with him in the 50,s

2:26 pm

that's because Duck and .... are so close

2:27 pm

goofy*

2:27 pm

goofy goes skiing, goofy quits smoking, goofy joins a gym, goofy becomes a dad.. lol

2:28 pm

lolol

2:29 pm

they all came out in the 50,s if you have not seen any, I would highly recommend you google a few;). Something to take the edge off after a rough day

2:29 pm

I grew up on those Crossy.

2:29 pm

pour a jumbo G&T and sit down and watch goofy quit smoking..lol

2:29 pm

LOL Ruru!

2:31 pm

All things come to those who monkey.

2:31 pm

I just get tried, grumpy monkies..

2:34 pm

darn office chair. the hydraulics are going in it and it slowly lowers itself over time. Every 30 minutes or so I find myself with my kness up around my ears and must adjust the thing again:(

2:34 pm

another great visual!

2:34 pm

:)

2:35 pm

Not as good as Lill's tree full of tits, though.

2:35 pm

:o

2:35 pm

lol, Hego. All these English classes have rubbed off on me. I have become quite handy at descriptive writing:)

2:35 pm

a tree full of tits?

2:35 pm

Nowt wrong with trees full of tits, especially crested ones!!:D

2:36 pm

lol Hiya Lill!

2:36 pm

so, the tree could be called full ,vibrant and bosomy?

2:37 pm

crossy tries to picture a tree with cleavage

2:37 pm

And they are real birds...just popped by to get my last couple and have finished and i was going to chat but after seeing my name and tits mentioned.....lol

2:37 pm

Crossy, you were good at descriptive writing before the classes.

2:37 pm

why, ty, Hego:)

2:37 pm

Goofy tits?

2:37 pm

Always nice to see you, Lill.

2:38 pm

2:49 pm

2:50 pm

Hi Elegant!

2:58 pm

lol@ johnny jump ups

2:58 pm

2:58 pm

2:59 pm

I thought during spring break they were called Johnny Jump ons

3:00 pm

my daughter loves them so a few years she propagated seeds and now they come out among a gravel area by front porch in full flurry! She's in Baltimore though so just me to enjoy.

3:00 pm

Bluebonnets come out along all the major highways...from lady Bird Johnson days of planting wildflowers..

3:01 pm

that is good then. every time you see them, you can think of your girl;))

3:01 pm

I do :-) Just saw her last week for her thesis runway show.

3:02 pm

During Spring Break they are Johnnie Walkers

3:02 pm

ha ha!

3:02 pm

3:05 pm

anyone want to clue the 8?

3:05 pm

+that's one way to be a Model Student :D

3:05 pm

Good evening. I've been lurking and saw mention of johnny jump ups and bluebonnets. Here the johnny jump ups are called pansies or violas and bluebonnets are called lupins. They all come in many different colours.

3:06 pm

Good Afternoon, Everyone! How are you all on this cool, cloudy day here in MN?

3:06 pm

WTG!

3:08 pm

Hello to all I missed coming in!

3:09 pm

HI crossy, Babs 1, Frances, car.ee, and everyone.

3:10 pm

I have 3 things growing so far, nothing that flowers though (much too early for that here)

3:10 pm

cold country!

3:11 pm

rule of thumb here is to never plant anything outside till May 24th

3:11 pm

I have seen it snow into the second week of May many times

3:12 pm

plants start blooming and trees start getting green here at the end of March

3:13 pm

We always have an herb garden on our back step railing for cooking and we dump the planter in the main garden at the end of the season. The oregano and some thyme survived somehow; and of course the catnip (which is kind of sheltered where it grows)also survived

3:15 pm

mm, 40 to go and ten are c words and ten are m words:(

3:16 pm

35 here to go and a mix...need 4 more c's and 7 more m's

3:16 pm

3:16 pm

oh never mind, got it

3:17 pm

3:17 pm

DH ordered some sour cherry trees from a garden catalog in Indiana. The company said they wouldn't send them until it was warm enough here. They came on Friday and the box said "open immediately" so I did. The directions say "keep in the box until you plant" but not plant until the ground temp is 50 degrees. That may be a while yet!

3:17 pm

*Waiting for the Miss 2Bit Easter bonnet picture*

4:01 pm

she actually has bunny ears this year, which may win out over the bonnet

4:02 pm

Bunny ears are cute on kids. Not so much on adults or pet though. : )

4:02 pm

she has begun to assert herself over what she wears, tho not all the time

4:03 pm

I sort of agree, Molly. I don't want costumes on pets; but if adults want to make fools of themselves, I'll let them.

4:03 pm

Oh ho, wait until the hormones kick in. (Find a Xanex prescribing doctor now)

4:03 pm

hi all, help with the fo7 pls

4:03 pm

You have a point Nef : D

4:04 pm

80 degrees here!!! and sunny.

4:04 pm

I have all the windows open

4:05 pm

She is 1 year, 6 days younger than my grandson, dan2. I've found that our grandson has really learned to assert himself over this past year (good luck!)

4:06 pm

peri: :-P It's in the 40's here and will be all week. Last week it was in the 60's and 70's

4:07 pm

fo7= fo + very tiny ear critters

4:08 pm

ty Nef

4:08 pm

that clue gave me the so7 too

4:10 pm

:-)

4:10 pm

thanks. I've been looking for the so7; nice to know it was so simple

4:11 pm

Everyone and their brother was out planting things today and Tuesday night it's going to be below freezing.

4:12 pm

Thank God I decided to hold off on planting til first of ay

4:12 pm

hi all

4:12 pm

hi cos.

4:12 pm

Cos, you old polecat, you old so and so

4:13 pm

have your socks rolled up and down today Molly?

4:17 pm

No, but as you can tell, I have been having a West Wing marathon. I can always find something new to laugh at. Like the scene where Toby complains about the lighting in the Oval Office and says that the President's Easter address looked like it had been lit by Ed Wood. : D

4:20 pm

That show has so many hidden gems.

4:22 pm

So many emotional scenes too. The two cathederals was powerful

4:23 pm

That is one of my favorite episodes. That and the one where Josh talks to the psychiatrist about the shooting.

4:23 pm

CJ and her necklace too.

4:23 pm

Yes, that was one of mine too Molly

4:23 pm

I love the scene in Two Cathedrals where Bartlet has them seal off the National Cathedral so he can yell at God.

4:24 pm

I loved how Donna's character evolved. Did Janel Maloney ever win an emmy?

4:25 pm

I loved Mrs. Landingham. As much as I love Lily Tomlin -- Debbie Fiderer never felt right.

4:25 pm

Even though I know it's coming, I get misty every time I see the scene in the Thanksgiving episode where Bartlet gives Charlie the family carving set.

4:26 pm

I wish I had the time to watch it again

4:27 pm

Two nominations for Maloney, no wins.

4:27 pm

The voters all gave their votes to Allison Janey lol

4:28 pm

I may be the only WW fan who dislikes Josh Lyman.

4:29 pm

Love Josh, love Brad Whitford

4:30 pm

I love how that show was created as a vehicle for Rob Lowe and he became one of the not so interesting characters.

4:30 pm

I think it was his receding hairline that makes him so annoying, I never understood his sex appeal.

4:31 pm

yeah sam seaborn sucked.

4:31 pm

Well that part I don't understand, but Josh got a lot of the comic relief lines in the show.

4:32 pm

Oh he pissed me off so many times. especially when he got that idaho senator to switch parties

4:33 pm

and you know.. i am biased.. i thought joey lucas was way too good for him lol

4:34 pm

mo 6/24, pls Sorry to interrupt this important conversation

4:34 pm

"shes a woman?" "yes" "and deaf?" "yes" always makes me laugh

4:34 pm

ah so sorry forgot we broke the babble rule.

4:34 pm

West Wing is available for streaming on Netflix...I've marathon watched it several times. I disagree...thought Rob Lowe was great. I also was touched by the Thanksgiving knife scene, Molly.

4:34 pm

mo 7 = sayings

4:36 pm

no, I meant the mo 6/24

4:37 pm

oops misread that

4:37 pm

mo6 is many tiny stones in a pattern

4:37 pm

a different clue for the fo7 tiny-eared critter please?

4:37 pm

tyvm Nef

4:38 pm

Marlee Matlin is so cute. I swear, she would still be cute if she shaved her head.

4:39 pm

nice lady.. she was a few years ahead of me in school.. she came to visit her old teachers a lot and we happened to be in class when she did :)

4:39 pm

fo + ear *****

4:39 pm

not tiny-eared, cross. tiny bugs that are in ears

4:39 pm

ty bichon

4:39 pm

Oops, you're right Cos. So sorry to anyone we have offended discussing television.

4:39 pm

I had the same drama teacher she had when she got hit by the acting bug.. too bad it didn trub off on me too :P

4:39 pm

yw

4:40 pm

No, you haven't offended me. I loved that show

4:40 pm

there is a babble rule about television?? news to me:)

4:40 pm

it doesn't bother me, Molly and cos. I think the chog can handle conversations and clues if people just refer their comments to the person they are talking to

4:41 pm

better set me straight on it before I slip up:))

4:41 pm

some people don't like it so I avoid it.. but thanks guys :)

4:41 pm

(and I've never heard there is a "rule" about chatting in chog! Is this new??)

4:42 pm

oh well. it shall remain one of those elusive mysteries:)

4:43 pm

I will file it with stomehenge,the Piltdown man and why marshmallow peeps expand over 500 times their size in a microwave;)

4:44 pm

news to me nef:)

4:44 pm

hey crossy, I read your profile today (haven't done so for quite a while) and I had to look up that poem to see who wrote it. Thanks, I learned a few things about her too.

4:44 pm

but we should explore about those marshmallow peeps a bit more:)

4:45 pm

I am glad you liked it, nef:)

4:45 pm

I've always heard the same 2 lines; never knew there was a whole poem to it

4:46 pm

that is also why it grabbled my attention;)

4:47 pm

Anyway Cos, how's your dog?

4:47 pm

I just thought it was a mo 5/12 that I always hear

4:47 pm

can you share the name with me please?. I should reference it in my profile

4:48 pm

Ella Wheeler Wilcox

4:48 pm

ty, nef

4:48 pm

*has looong list of chat rules*

4:48 pm

well, take those rules, and make a paper plane out of them:)

4:49 pm

ruru, please share! I want to know if I'm breaking any! ;-)

4:49 pm

ok citation is added. Must be correct in these things:)

4:49 pm

it's just too extensive nef.. I may post it in my profile soon

4:50 pm

there may be a novel there, ruru:)

4:50 pm

(I'm pretty sure I break any and all rules every time I play Babble; but it isn't on purpose

4:50 pm

I've been keeping score Nef.. you're still on the safe side :D

4:50 pm

LOL, ruru! :-)

4:51 pm

hehe. what is my score ru?

4:51 pm

too high crossie.. way too high

4:51 pm

good, i shall go for the official record then:)

4:52 pm

you are pretty darn close.. but a couple of others are way ahead of you :D

4:52 pm

If I'm on the safe side; it's only because of the problems I've had with Comcast and my computer lately. But I have a new hard drive and new RAM, and I hope Comcast straightens up soon

4:52 pm

lol. well. It is not good to be perfect in this; it leaves no room for imrovement

4:52 pm

improvement

4:53 pm

amen

4:53 pm

I just walked to the store to buy some new tennis shoes and noticed a CHristian Day Spa..

4:54 pm

what? so, if i am not Christian , i get no spa??

4:54 pm

made me wonder about a bunch of things

4:54 pm

Whoa!! that sounds odd

4:54 pm

now i am bummed right out:(

4:54 pm

no spa there apparently crossie :D

4:55 pm

they must have these little tubs of water where people can practice walking on water

4:55 pm

why would Christians need a day spa? Does God care how we look?

4:55 pm

well, hard to sink and drown in a hottub. best to practice on it before trying it on large lakes and such

4:56 pm

or maybe you are just allowed to say God please make this stop!" out loud and everyone yells AMEN

4:56 pm

the robes have belts that are made out of little bibles :D

4:56 pm

the rule "if at first you don's succeed..." does not apply if you fail over 500 feet of ocean

4:57 pm

don't*

4:57 pm

that's when you have to practice parting the sea crossy

4:57 pm

what about parting a bowl of tomato soup first?

4:57 pm

worked for Jim

4:57 pm

JIm?

4:58 pm

Jim Carrie, the actor.

4:58 pm

In liar, Liar i think

5:00 pm

oh.. not a big Jim Carey fan

5:00 pm

Greetings from the (religious-run) Mater Hospital, Dublin. All this Christian stuff is a bit deja vu. I've already had 2 priests in to talk to me.

5:00 pm

5:01 pm

why you in hospital soodles?

5:01 pm

*Quickly sprinkles the chat with holy water*

5:02 pm

Please don!t.

5:02 pm

So sorry, he's tied up taking selfies with the Catholic public outside of Palm Sunday mass.

5:03 pm

Do we need an old priest and a young priest?

5:03 pm

Because nothing says "religious" like a cell phone picture with The Pope.

5:03 pm

LOL molly

5:03 pm

did you know that Vatical city has the highest crime rate per population count of any city in the world? I think the pope may be too busy.

5:03 pm

lol ok that was funny

5:03 pm

Soodle, are you OK?

5:04 pm

was dengeneres in on that one?

5:04 pm

Vatican*

5:04 pm

5:04 pm

ahh, there is nothing like burning in eternal hellfire whith company..

5:04 pm

with

5:05 pm

liked that spelling better, crossy

5:05 pm

i try variants all the time, jaxx. it spices things up.

5:06 pm

It is a word we may see on Babble

5:06 pm

I liked Vatical. It's like a combination of Vatican and fanatical.

5:07 pm

Vatical sounds like a procedure

5:07 pm

I suppose everything got on top of me. Prescribed meds didnt do what they were supposed to do everything got chaotic. Here I am. With priests n nuns

5:07 pm

wow! says here that there is 1.5 crimes comited for every citizen in Vatican City .lol

5:07 pm

A painful one at that

5:07 pm

Ask one if they can get you something to take the edge off:)) ((soodles))

5:07 pm

I saw a video of a woman getting mugged while being interviewd about the high crime in her town

5:07 pm

did you have a panic attack or something soodle?

5:07 pm

Soodle, take care of yourself! That doesn't sound too good

5:08 pm

Soodle please relax and let things settle down! Sending good thots and light

5:08 pm

5:09 pm

Thank you Nef & Bugs

5:09 pm

5:10 pm

or Percy

5:10 pm

So wait, you are in the hospital and they have called for a priest? : O

5:11 pm

*Arranges for keening women to arrive shortly*

5:11 pm

well. I am guessing a medication conflict with other meds, or she was tired of having typos corrected:) ((get better soodles)) we need you healthy, happy and babbling))

5:12 pm

I was admitted yesterday afternoon. In the past 28/30 hours, 2 priests have come to see me.

5:12 pm

Soodle if you need to unburden, my shoulders are broad and I am a good listener. My e-mail jackie2roberts@hotmail.co.uk

5:12 pm

what is the problem soodle.. ?

5:12 pm

get one to sneak you in some nice fish and chips

5:12 pm

hiya folks

5:12 pm

as long as they are not there for Last Rites, Soodle. See if one can sing to you like the wedding you told us about the other day. :)

5:13 pm

TWO priests, Soodle?? pooh, they must feel you need a lot of prayers!

5:13 pm

hi Foffle. welcome to the chat

5:13 pm

hi foffle

5:14 pm

hi Foffle

5:14 pm

Hi, foffle

5:14 pm

*measures Jaxx's shoulders

5:14 pm

hi bugsaw and ruru and nef and crossy

5:14 pm

Lol Bugs. My problem is a pretty common one. I seem to have lost the will to live.

5:15 pm

(((Soodle)))

5:15 pm

what's the problem soodle?

5:15 pm

I have been there Soodle. This too shall pass and all will be well.

5:17 pm

Oh, Bugs, you know what? I dont really want this to pass.

5:18 pm

Soodle, much love to you, and here's to your desired outcome.

5:18 pm

Soodle you might try watching an older dog - they still suck all the gusto out of life even when blind and halt.

5:18 pm

That's how I want to go...

5:19 pm

Not right now you don't, but your thinking is clouded because of all the chemical imbalances in your body. The feelings are beyond your control, but YOU ARE SO LOVED BY SO MANY PEOPLE.

5:20 pm

I'm very sorry. I'm heading off line now. Thank you all for your cheering words. I've no doubt everything wiil be fine. Thanks again.

5:20 pm

So true, Bugs.

5:20 pm

You were so kind to me last week. let me return the favour

5:21 pm

Bye for now, soodle

5:21 pm

((soodles)))

5:22 pm

:(

5:22 pm

Soodle, heart to heart and soul to soul...you are in a dark place right now. That is not where you have to stay. You've got at least three (your kids) shining things in your life. Get some rest and get to a better place.

5:23 pm

olio

5:24 pm

Free word everyone

5:24 pm

ty, jaxx

5:25 pm

I already had it, jaxx. Got another one? ;-)

5:26 pm

damn I already had that one too! Feel free to try again :)

5:26 pm

not at the moment. Too busy thinking about soodle to move cursor back

5:27 pm

what is wrong with poor Soodle?

5:27 pm

she's usually so upbeat

5:28 pm

Not at the moment

5:28 pm

well, obviously

5:30 pm

I don't know what's wrong; I haven't been online much lately due to server and computer problems, so not aware of what's going on. But I did notice she has her email addy in her profile now and maybe we can all send her good thoughts and prayers?

5:30 pm

Good idea Nef

5:31 pm

great idea nef

5:31 pm

I don't do prayers but definitely the good thoughts

5:31 pm

At least she will know that we all are there for her.

5:32 pm

but she dosn't know me at all, so it may not be a good thing to do

5:33 pm

I haven't known her that long either but positive thoughts....

5:33 pm

maybe we can send her some buff and handsome candy stripers

5:34 pm

yes, I'll send her a message

5:34 pm

Bit difficult to send them by e-mail, ru

5:34 pm

they don't run to candy stripers over here

5:34 pm

If you want to be precise, there are very few that really know her here. We know her persona, but no matter what; she may need to know that others are thinking of her.

5:34 pm

plus what jaxx pointed out

5:35 pm

From what she 'said', it can only help

5:35 pm

yes Nef, I agree

5:36 pm

ruru, I'm going to let you send those (I can't afford the postage!0

5:36 pm

take some packing up

5:37 pm

I can send them via priority male

5:37 pm

yes and the postage from the States will be phenominal

5:37 pm

lol ruru

5:38 pm

If you don't put stamps on then it will cost the recipient double which will hardly cheer her up

5:38 pm

LOL!

5:39 pm

Oh, ruru1

5:39 pm

! even

5:40 pm

I already emailed her and agree that she needs lots of love and kindness right now.

5:40 pm

Same here, Bugs.

5:40 pm

Bugsaw has led the way so its our turn now folks

5:41 pm

she'd have to open the box with her teeth though.. i'm sure they wouldn't allow a letter opener :D

5:41 pm

Babblers are usually a good bunch in spite of the bickering. We fight like family.

5:42 pm

bickering? what bickering?

5:42 pm

where do we get her email addy?

5:42 pm

exactly ruru

5:43 pm

just double click on her icon Foffle.

5:43 pm

I only bicker with two people here.. but that's because they are jerks

5:43 pm

she's not online

5:44 pm

ROFL ruru. I knew there had to be a good reason!

5:46 pm

everyone else is pretty nice around here

5:46 pm

She has posted her email address so I don't think it is a secret. Medicinson@eircom.net

5:47 pm

thanks bugsaw

5:48 pm

and thanks to you Foffle for caring so much about someone you don't know

5:48 pm

OK, shutting up now so all the people who hate me can talk again.... hahahah

7:00 pm

anyone who buys 500 dollar shoes revolts me... ;o)

7:00 pm

oh.. sorry

7:00 pm

Whats wrong with 500 shoes?

7:00 pm

And how do you know about Carrie Bradshaw, Mr. I Don't watch chick flicks?

7:00 pm

my shoes costs a lot

7:01 pm

Not me.. forced to watch it with mrs. ru.. those days are over

7:01 pm

$500?

7:01 pm

no..more than that

7:02 pm

Not going to say anything about "forced to watch it" (Oh but I want to)

7:02 pm

orthopedic shoes?

7:02 pm

*watches Ru rating in Penquis' world drop like a rock*

7:03 pm

no.. not orthopedic.. wrong babbler there :D

7:03 pm

Sorry, but I can't buy shoes that cost more than my car payment. Silly, middle class me.

7:04 pm

Well you would have to have my feet molly :D

7:04 pm

well to each his own, i guess....just can't see paying that much money for a pair of shoes...

7:04 pm

ditto, molly.....

7:04 pm

how are you on cosmetics penquis? :D

7:05 pm

or purses ?

7:05 pm

or dresses

7:05 pm

.. it's all relative

7:05 pm

or any article of clothing...

7:06 pm

i don't buy cosmetics....i lead a simple life... ;o)

7:06 pm

I actually don't spend too much on clothes.. but I have to wear these shoes.. they are the most comfortable shoes I"ve ever found

7:07 pm

Women don't buy 500 dollar shoes because they have bad feet. They might get bad feet from them, though.

7:08 pm

heh heh....

7:08 pm

I don't have bad feet ... I have wide feet :D

7:08 pm

I like my feet

7:09 pm

se6/18, clue please

7:09 pm

I don't need snow shoes

7:09 pm

Aw, Sasquatch

7:09 pm

tennis match + sugar ending aeb

7:10 pm

i always thought i spent a lot on my shoes....i also have wide feet...but to me, $75 to $100 is a lot, lol....

7:10 pm

Merci..Ruru!

7:10 pm

Mine cost $800-$1,000

7:10 pm

whoa.....whoa.....whoa.....

7:10 pm

but they last me a long time

7:11 pm

so do mine, lol.....i rarely wear out shoes....

7:11 pm

and they refurbish them for $180 almost like new

7:12 pm

It's high dollar city Pen, we don't live there.

7:12 pm

money is money

7:12 pm

i still have a pair of Wolverine deck shoes that I won in a Dr. Pepper contest in 1982, lol....

7:14 pm

I also buy a lot of cheap tennis shoes if that helps :D

7:17 pm

Wait, wait, you can wear cheap tennis shoes but your ? shoes have to be in the 800 to 1000 dollar range?

7:17 pm

think i'm going to bow out of this conversation..mrs Ru doesn't blink an eye buying purses that cost a fortune

7:18 pm

I wear dress shoes almost daily molly and it's really hard to find durable leather shoes that look good and have triple G width

7:18 pm

i just bought a very nice travel bag that cost me $29.95....just not a clothes horse, i guess....

7:18 pm

but that's just me .. tennis shoes from Nike can come in nice wide styles.. that is usually what I buy for about $59 or so

7:19 pm

Well okay, that makes sense. And just for the record, I have no understanding of why women buy purses that cost a small fortune either.

7:19 pm

Mrs. Ru Spent $3,500 on a purse once .. I just about passed out

7:19 pm

whoa....whoa.....whoaa.....i would have passed out!

7:19 pm

Usually, those pricey, designer purses are ugly as sin.

7:20 pm

she wanted it in two colors and I interceded

7:20 pm

hah!

7:21 pm

it was a nice looking purse.. but really $3K? are you kidding me?

7:21 pm

Don't ask me what I'll spend on a bottle of wine however :D

7:23 pm

$15 retail is my limit, lol....

7:23 pm

hi all, I read back in the chat and wanted to send Soodle an email but she is no longer on line. does anyone have her email?

7:23 pm

lots of great wine costs less than $15

7:24 pm

There is a reason to buy pricey shoes if you have an extra, extra wide width and need good looking dress shoes for work. Buying a purse that costs 3 grand is just vanity.

7:25 pm

I kind of agree with that

7:26 pm

good evening

7:26 pm

<---drinking an under $15 bottle of nice wine right now

7:26 pm

hi phan

7:26 pm

soodle's email is in the chat peri

7:26 pm

ok, I will look back again, ty

7:27 pm

And wanting a purse that costs 3 grand in two colors? Jesus Mary and Joseph.

7:27 pm

I got her out of the store pretty quickly after that comment

7:28 pm

she was serious

7:30 pm

I could become a billionaire tomorrow and I would never spend that much money on purses.

7:31 pm

me either...

7:31 pm

I would not either.

7:31 pm

even 100 bucks is too much for me!

7:32 pm

Seriously, it's a purse. You put your wallet and junk in it.

7:32 pm

*whistles*

7:33 pm

ruru,I read thru all of the chat and the only e-mail I see belongs to jaxx.

7:35 pm

someone did post it this afternoon....just before Nef came, i think...

Didn't even have time to set the Peri timer.

7:43 pm

why do you keep asking me that, ruru. sometimes i truly do not see the word and sometimes I find it right away

7:43 pm

I was half way through my clue for gods sake

7:44 pm

that's why we lovingly call it pulling a peri

7:45 pm

FW, happy babbling. I am going to send Soodle an e-mail.

7:45 pm

congrats!

you do that peri.. probably the more the merrier. congrats

7:46 pm

I get "never mind" because someone found it. I don't get "thought I tried that". Um, if you tried it, wouldn't you have it?

7:47 pm

that's why someone says i "thought" i tried that... ;o)

7:47 pm

going out for another walk .. take care

7:51 pm

last ox5?

7:52 pm

oops got it!

7:52 pm

I'm sure it's just me, Pen. It just seems like kind of an ungrateful response to someone who tried to offer some help.

7:58 pm

i am sure it's not meant to be...

7:58 pm

speaking as someone who has said it; it isn't meant to be ungrateful.

8:01 pm

Okay, I'm sure it's not. Which is why I used the word "seems". When I "try" a word, I look to see if it is added to my word list. Others do not, apparently.

8:02 pm

sometimes it's just a result of staring too long at the grid...

8:02 pm

sometimes one is going fast and just trying stuff...

8:03 pm

That is probably why I don't get the comment Phan. I don't "go fast" through trying to solve the puzzle.

8:03 pm

does anybody have a clue for the bottom left T? I would be very grateful :)

8:05 pm

Ha ha ha ha, my puppy is now a mostly well-behaved 3 year old, 70 pound bundle of love. The 2 cats, the Heeler, & that Doberman puppy have been joined by 3 more rescue dogs. Now I have a zoo. lol

10:44 pm

Good for you for getting rescue dogs!What kind are your other two dogs that you have? I got King Charles Cavalier

Hi.

10:45 pm

Hi herinfernallady!How are you doing? Welcome to chog.

10:46 pm

We now have another Doberman who was going to be euthanized for being "too shy", a Shepherd mix that was found in a ditch and was so shy no one wanted to adopt her so we foster failed, and when my MIL passed away we got her Chihuahua/French Bulldog mix she had rescued.

ORmal Bless you. There needs to be more people out there willing to give the unloved odd pets a chance. When my Aunt and Uncle were alive they had a farm of rejected farm critters. Pretty much all the animals were missing something.

10:50 pm

Awww! That's awesome herinfernallady!!!

My friends have special needs snakes.

10:53 pm

My hubby would kick me out with some snakes. lol Well, great chatting for a bit, but the bed is calling.
