Is your schedule stating to wind down now Liz
Using iPad so may not chat much. Hope you are all well.

Sort of. Don't really know why things seem so rushed!
Back to beach and gym, which is great!
Almost finished DH books :(
well its nice you can join us for however long-lol
Love chatting to you, pugs
as I do you as well :)
Is the weather warming up now?
it was in the 80's the last 2 days--now its cooling down and due for rain and storms this afternoon and over the week end
Typical! Bad weather for the weekend!
phantom: hendiadys
I dont mind the rain or thunderstorms--I just dont like the tornados---I hate it when they come after dark and cant see them
morning 0-0 x
Morning OO and thanks for fixing that problem for me
I'd hate that too. Never experienced a tornado. Do they have a definite season?
Hi o-o
Mostly spring, but they can come anytime of the year
I think OO is more in the path of them then I am
Stay safe (and anyone else in a tornado area)
we had one during winter once and it sounded like a train going overhead
Stay safe too, o-o
Scary
they are scarey and can do some weird stuff
Wor, you sick today?
no pug why? xx
you are being too good and thats scarey too--lol
Lol
I yell at tornadoes and tell them to mind their manners.
just being careful what I say. Was accused of something a couple weeks ago, and yesterday i think I said something to upset people so I'm being good for once! xx
But if you want me to be silly - bum, poo, wee-wee!!!
you must have some pretty good lungs OO to tame something like that
rofl
Making me laugh, o- o
well, you are one of those that makes me laugh at your goofness
whom among us is not goofy from time to time .. speak now or forever hold your peace
if I couldn't be goofy once in a while .. my head would explode
gosh dont let that happen Agzam-lol
lol
it would make a huge mess .. and then who would clean it up ? .. me of course :p
what part of the US are you from Agzam, if you dont mind me asking
California .. san diego area
chula vista to be exact :p
down there in Ruru's area then, right
not sure where Ruru is from
Iam thinking he said nappa area but not real sure
Some videos of the tornado that hit my hometown in 1957 http://tinyurl.com/pu25nsh
I believe that's in the l.a. area .. but I am also .. not sure
Bbl - will look at that footage later, when not using iPad. Have a good day all :) hugs.
bye Liz
Napa Valley is about 47 miles North of San Francisco
that far ? .. wow .. SanFran is about an 8 hour drive from me .. give or take
North Dakota picture showing the residual of a blizzard: http://tinyurl.com/lbmkdbx
that was a really big storm OO--is that the biggest one that you guys have had
biggest one I remember
I was driving home one day trying to stay ahead of a tornado parallel to me and gaining
well I see you beat it--lol I hope you no longer try things like that now
when I started the trip, there was no tornado in sight
what? it just came out of no where? Thats frightening OO
About ten years ago, I watched from my window two apartment buildings get flattened.
Takes the boredom from a day.
and why wasent you in a safe place then? You take too many chances with your life---I do hope you are not so reckless now
I was in a safe place .... and here to tell about it.
were there many lives lost from the buildings coming down
standing in front of a window dont sound all that safe to me
It was during the day .... most of the residents were gone. Some were injured ... no deaths.
I was watching ... not standing in front of the window.
I suppose your yelling at it kept you safe that day-lol
Have to let tornadoes know who the boss is.
I had a friend that served in dessertstorm and they had to go clean up after such a storm and they found alot of people in their homes gone just from the tornado sucking out their air in their lungs
so is june then your worse time for these storms
Tornadoes do their damage and are gone. Blizzards do not do so much damage but the residual is around for much longer
I havent checked that yet, but I will---Ive not been in one of those as of yet
do you have blizzards often there OO
I really don't know. I have seen a lot of funnels ... seems like the days are very hot ... and then fronts collide and funnels start making their move across the sky.
what tornados I have seen--the sky is beautiful before they come, thats no lie there
Not lately ... weather has been milder ... the biggest blizzard I recall had drifts so high you could walk on the roofs of buildings
oh wow---thats some huge drifts! And I bet when it melts then you got flooding
the deepest here Ive ever seen is over the tops of field fences
How long OO did it take for that much snow to melt before people could get out?
On Friday, April 18, 1997, the Red River poured over the dikes into the Lincoln Drive neighborhood of Grand Forks. By the end of the next day, Saturday, April 19, floodwaters had spread over large areas of Grand Forks and East Grand Forks, 60,000 people were out of their homes, and downtown Grand Forks was burning. The downtown fire would destroy or damage eleven buildings on three blocks, including the offices of the Grand Forks Herald newspaper. But the Herald never missed a day of publication, despite having no offices or presses. Many residents were away from their homes for a week or more, before the floodwaters receded enough for them to reach their homes and see the damage. Almost every home in East Grand Forks, and most homes in Grand Forks had flood damage. Residents considered themselves "fortunate" if only their basement was flooded. Many residents lost their house, car, and everything else they own, and now must start over. Some neighborhoods, such as Lincoln Drive in Grand Forks and Sherlock Park in East Grand Forks, will never be rebuilt. Thousands of volunteers came to Grand Forks and East Grand Forks to help clean up and rebuild. One of them created this web site. Many others donated money and supplies to help rebuild. The people of Grand Forks and East Grand Forks are very thankful for all the help they have received.
Have not had floods for a few years now. Used to say Fargo had three seasons: winter, flooding and road construction.
were you among those in this story OO--how awful for you guys
was this flooding due to the melting snows
No, Grand Forks is north of me. I have filled a few of the millions of sandbags filled most years.
thats alot of people with out home all at one time
The Red River flows North into Canada. So Grand Forks has more water to deal with. Congress helped them recover.
and to this day, they have never rebuilt those two towns or neighborhoods
The towns were rebuilt and are thriving
The smell after the flood from garbage and sewage was terrible ... the people pulled together and got the cleanup done and started to rebuild
Ive tried finding pictures of your red river to see how big it is, but I havent found any that really shows it off---do you know where I can find some pics of it
oh I bet OO--were you in on that clean up too
do a search for the Red River of the North.
okay--thanks
does this river run through very many states
Here: http://tinyurl.com/ccodzn
the river is the boundary with Minnesota
thank you--I like learning about things like that
good morning

oops...good morning all :)
howdy nonnie
hello crossie!
nice to see you:) . do not see you in chog nearly enough:)
thank you. it is nice to be here. We moved to the country and getting internet was hugely expensive. So I try to keep my wifi usage down.
what is you gig cap for your wi-fi?
lol hubby gives me the usage readings almost daily to try and keep up from going over (insert rolling eyes here)
30gs there are 3 adults and two children in our home at the moment
30 gig.. well, you will be ok as long as you stay away from things like netflix and youtube and avoid streaming any other video clips
Yes, we do try to avoid those things.
it is so good to "see" you. How has life been treating you?
a bit of a note.. the opera browser, it compresses data and may allow you more wiggle room for video applications, but it is not great at some other things. So, you and hubby check into it. they have their own compression servers and compress the data before sending it to you
the opera browser...thanks, we'll have to look into that.
i am fine, i have a big English exam today, so i must leave you now. Tc nonnie.
Good luck on your exam and you have a wonderful day. You take care also.
hello again
SPRTE!!!!!!!!
hey pugs :) *hugs*
I was getting ready to send you a note to see if you got sent to the hospital-lol

Sprite, did you see in the back log where OO and I were talking
bye dear Une, see you soon, have a grand day too
bye Une--have a good day
no I didn't. Should I go back in chog?
about which time?
if you want, but he gave me a site to a blizzard they had and it shows a man standing ontop of the snow just inches from the popwerlines( I think it wasthe second url he gave me
let me go look
found it. Jeezzz that looks bad. Imagine such a layer of snow.
man youre fast--lol
I know, isnt that something? Ive never seen snow that deep
me neither. I hope to keep it that way, lolol
He gave another site for a tornado in his hometown in 57 too
yeah me too-lol Can you imagine the flooding after such a snow
must be horrible. Will take a while to melt too, I think.
I should go and pay bills. Have been postponing it again, as if that makes it any better... not!
I know! I wonder how people got out for food and such
fireflies, btw. Quite a nice grid today.
you have to leave the house or do it from home
I think they must dig out tunnels. Rather scary.
from home, thank God.
good for you then! congrats too and so glad I caught you and hope you feel better and have a good day and love and hugs
will get back to your email later, hun. Big *hug* for you and take care. I hope you will have a lovely day.

Hi, soodle. I am fine and how are you after all that wine?
thanks again, mixi. While looking for your do8 (which I've now found) I found a do7 (report)
Jaxx, I was as sick as a small hospital this morning. But a full Irish breakfast & a litre of water enabled me to re-enter the human race. As I type, I'm just sorry I'm not doing it all over again tonight!!
You have really made a turn around since a couple of weeks ago. Well done.
Oh MY, Soodle! You must have a strong constitution!
10 left.
Is the Irish meet up over now?
It's the Irish water
Could I get a clue for do7/32, the last one please?
A , usually secret, report
... more a file than a report ...
got it thanks
Sadly yes, Nef. But..... Now other Babblers may be encouraged to cone over.
My sister and I usually escape together once a year. We had been thinking of visiting Ireland. It is still in the air, though
Some day. Soodle…. How handicapped accessible is Ireland?DH and iAd talked about traveling there years ago, but with his MS, we decided that we'd have to travel in the US instead of in Europe
(I see my typing might be why some words aren't being accepted….)
os6?
Nef, it's pretty ok here re accessibility. Obviously, there's good and bad places. And Jaxx..... C'mon over!! It's good here. Don't take my word for it.... Ask Riverdance.
os + mother with a third vowel after the first consonant
sorry, mixi, I don't have it yet but am working on it
ty jaxx. FW.
Yay, mixi
YAY mixi6!!! WTG!!!
and thank you jaxx7
My mother's side has both Northern and Southern irish ancestors. Galway and Co Cavan with a dash of Belfast
hi all!
Hi sue. How are you doing these days?
hi nef! I am good. How are you?
doing good. DH told me that WE are going on a date tonight! (I don't even know the last time we had a meal alone; much less a "date!"
how sweet! Have a wonderful time!
We've been talking about what to do for our anniversary, which is a week from tomorrow
Any ideas?
probably we will go to dinner; there is a sushi restaurant about half an hour from here that has a gluten-free menu.
My head's spinning so I amtaking a break.
We've only been there once as it's a bit pricey, but it would be nice.
bye, jaxx!
take care, jaxx. maybe you need a nap?
for your anniversary it should be special
Especially Your anniversary! :-)
indeed! It can be a combination mothers day, birthday, and anniversary (my birthday is a week later)
then we don't have to go out again until Frank's birthday in November :-)
LOL! I thick that this is a combination birthday and Mothers Day treat (he hasn't said so, but that's what I'm guessing)
nice :-)
think! Not thick
I missed that :-0
We need to go kidnap Sue and take her out somewhere that isn't gluten free so she can gorge on gluten food. : D
haha. Actually I drove a friend to the doctor yesterday (which was about an hour away), and she bought me lunch at Panera Bread. So that was nice.
(although I had a salad with an apple on the side, so not much gluten anyway)
o-O
DO you eat strictly gluten free too, sue?
no but I don't bring gluten foods into the house; it makes things too complicated
and if I eat bread or something, I have to really wash my face well, and brush my teeth, before, well, getting too close to Frank :-)
That's very understandable; I just wondered if you decided to try to live gluten free too
oh, Wow! I wouldn't have thought of that!
well, mostly I leave the GF bread and cookies for him, as they are rather expensive
well, mostly I leave the GF bread and cookies for him, as they are rather expensive
g to eat healthier and lose weight, so I am eating more fruits and vegetables, and less starchy stuff, anyway
(sorry about the hiccup)
no problems, sue
So he can be in a restaurant where they use gluten products, but you can't have them in your house?
Does he have trouble with gluten in the environment too; or just the "up close" gluten?
well, in order for him to be ok in the restaurant, they have to be very careful to keep things separate. We can do that at home too but why ask for trouble?
true.
and at places like pizza restaurants, he won't even get a glass of water, as he figures the air is full of flour - no way to keep it off everything
I'm glad you've found someplace that he Can go though
But doesn't the flour in the air affect him if he is that sensitive?
so when we go out, it's either a place with a dedicated gluten free menu, a sushi place (where he brings his own soy sauce, and just gets plain fish and rice), or a real Mexican place
Molly, as long as he stays out of the kitchen in a pizza place he should be ok; he's mostly at risk from ingesting gluten, not so much from inhaling it (although when he volunteered at our local co-op, he was always really careful when dealing with the bulk flour and things)
So he did find a GF soy sauce? When my D-I-L was going GF, she freaked out after reading a soy sauce bottle
the gluten molecule is large and won't go through skin, so he doesn't have to worry about simple contact
yes, Nef, there are brands that use no wheat in the soy sauce, it is usually called tamari
that's good
so7, please?
San-J is the easiest to find
hi Marc! Don't have it but will look.
good to know, sue!
thanks
I'm looking too, Marc.
so first 3 letters is grass then plural
ah, just found it and was trying to figure out how to clue it :-)
yep, just found it too! Thanks
um what?
hi lil*
looking for a clue lil?
hi all!
so*= grass (on lawn)
that seems like so4
so7/36 = grass + perishes
oh OK
so + double consanant plus many
ack, just saw the time! Am supposed to be somewhere at 6; better walk the dog and hop in the shower. See you all later!
Yes got it, thank you!
bye sue (our date is at 6 also, I can wait another 20 minutes yet. ;-)
Nef, speaking of your daughter in law, I hope things are better in your house now that you are living daughter in law free.
The divorce was finalized on 4/29, Molly. She will always be the mother of my grandson; but I definitely feel much more relaxed about what *I* have to do (or not) For her now
(life is much easier now even if we see each other.) Mothers Day will include both her AND her mother (my son requested it)
Your son is very gracious.
The main thing is that all of the adults are thinking of the child forst. So we are all trying…. So far, so good.
Difficult times, Nef, but kudos to all for putting the little person first. Well done.
Hello everyone
Soodle, as long as we all are trying to put him first, it's easy to put aside ones own anger

I figured it out...ty though
We've had a kodak copier before, and it worked well but we had trouble finding ink cartridges for it.
that's all I've found so far TO
kodakis ou of the busniess now
they did print great pictures.
(the copiers, I mean)
Ah yes, the digital age has killed a lot of businesses.
And now it's time for me to go get ready for our date…. Happy Babbling, everyone!

Hello from Ireland....my last night and actually need to get to bed
Hi River! Having fun?
Never heard of the TV show.
Its on FX. It is an animated show but for adults. It is very naughty and very funny...very quick humor.
Beautiful country River, I hope you enjoyed your visit.
Have loved it all despite the rain.
Clue please for OS 6?
Palm
Wonderful!
Leeds
Feel
Go River Go!
My sister had been to Ireland three times and not once did she avoid the rainy weather.
They describe it as soft days in Ireland. It is why the country is so green
Off to bed... early start to the airport
Travel safe.
Thanks....Will talk to you again on my side of the pond

Night all. It is midnight here and I am off to my bed. Thanks for the clues and the company.
momentary panic. my 14 daughter and her friend are running around the yard laughing about rufies. turns out thats what they call it when they punt the soccer ball over the roof and they were not pronouncing the greatness of the sketchy drug.
love it GoodEnough
omg GE that's hysterical
it won't be long for you dan. Your little miss is growing up so fast
I know! turned 4 yesterday, already knows everything

Oh and Dan2...please tell miss 2bit happy 4th birthday!!
hey all
hugs to stid!!!
((stiddy))
how are you bugs? and jilly?
Doing well, and how are you feeling stid?
I am feeling better now. Last week had to take a fast trip to Edmonton to rescue a boy in distress. He was mad and grateful at the same time.
meant I was doing a dance the whole time of trying to be loving without smothering
feeling crummy from the tummy bug -- but the fevers are better now. I hope I am well enough to really work on the house tomorrow. The builder is desperate to finish -- I think he needs to pay the workers. But since they delayed so much WE still have work to do.
I am glad you are better, I am sorry your kiddo needed rescuing bugs -- will he be okay?
don't feel bad about being sick. it happens and as you say, they made you wait too. Yes he is fine now and doing very well! I am so relieved
I am glad you were able to help -- it is distressing when our kids are at a distance and in trouble!
no kidding. His roommate contacted us all in a panic. turns out the roommate was the one with the problem. I just separated them and all is well now
:-D smart mama!
last word am 5,14 and I am blind. Any clues please?
a 44D would have am5 cleavage
thankjyou harpjane. I kept flipping the last letters. So glad to go rest now. Do you need a clue before I go?
