Oh hahahahaha! I like that one!

3:40 am

get it for him next year..... it will give him a chuckle

3:40 am

I don't thik he would agree with your statement of a nice age to be..lol

3:41 am

Yes I will write it down so I do not forget..lol

3:47 am

Good night, my peeps. Eyelids are drooping. Blessings

3:47 am

sweet dreams peach, dear

3:48 am

Take care, peach :-)

4:17 am

good morning all

4:18 am

hello, sprite :-)

4:18 am

hey zooz! Best wishes for your dad!

4:18 am

Thanks!

4:19 am

how is your new diet going?

4:20 am

mwah... it is going, but it would help if my bl***** son wouldn't eat up my veggies on the sly.

4:20 am

{{hugs}} my dearest sprite

4:20 am

hello my dear rose *hugs* Bowels getting a bit of a workout, huh :(

4:20 am

And he knows they are yours?

4:21 am

oh good grief....smack his fingers and tell mitts off.

4:22 am

yep, he should have known, since we talked it over the day before during dinner... Rob had cooked me extra because he wouldn't be home for dinner yesterday. So blech. Of course, the kid claims he did not know... and became rude when I got mad...

4:22 am

slowed down now. *sigh* i really must say no to fat...

4:22 am

poor rose. Yeah, especially so shortly after the infusion.

4:22 am

Well now that has happened it he will have no excuse for the next time!

4:22 am

so now you have to write him little notes and/or stick your name on the containers.

4:23 am

it's so ridiculous.

4:24 am

oh he doesn't need an excuse. Saying he didn't listen and I should make sure he hears before I assume he knows. It is always my fault if he messes up.

4:24 am

yep. Am gonna make a label sheet today and put it on the fridge. Stupid so-and-so

4:25 am

ks killed

4:25 am

((Sprite)) Try not let that spoil the rest of your day :-)

4:26 am

I won't :D Especially since I get to share the first part with you guys. How did your dad like his birthday?

4:27 am

well at first he was not happy as he hates any fuss.But as time went on you could see he enjoyed himself.

4:27 am

*rolls eyes* domestic deafness strikes again.

4:27 am

lol too true. Your home is improving now, isn't it, rose... with Don being so active.

4:27 am

It was so hot in the house that day as they get cold easily.But with nine people in the house it was roasting..lol

4:28 am

omg indeed. I really understand that elderly people get cold more easily, especially if they don't move about much. But ugh it can be so stiffling.

4:29 am

oh yes, it is. btw talked to my case worker. apparently last IME says i can work 3 hours 3 days/week. but with all the provisos he has put into the report, it will be a miracle if they can find me a job.

4:30 am

3x3 hours? Ridiculous. Glad the provisos are there.

4:30 am

my car park must be within so many feet of my work station, as does the loo. i may not use public transport, and on and on.

4:31 am

and my case worker is behind me 100%. he is not allowed to say so, but i think he really wishes i don't have to return to work.

4:32 am

ah good. That will help. you really need people in your corner.

4:33 am

it's hysterical really. if the company knew how he really felt, he would be out of a job. but he truly understands how restricted i am.

4:34 am

well that is at least a plus. Yay for people with hearts and minds.

4:35 am

zooz, what are your plans for today?

4:35 am

sweetheart, i like to think the case speaks for itself. the IME had to recommend something. and as i told you, any company's medical exam is going to fail me.

4:36 am

Hang on

4:36 am

*hanging on*

4:36 am

*hanging on too*

4:38 am

don was putting up brackets over his work bench in the garage today. it sounded like he was drilling through the spare bedroom wall....lol...i did get a bit worried.

4:38 am

here, that wouldn't matter, rose. If an assessment doctor says you can do some sorts of work and the occupational hazard says some jobs are within your possibilities, your benefit is based on that.

4:39 am

Sorry about that..sister just came round but i am waiting in for a parcel for my friend.

4:39 am

and apparently, centrelink know all about my workcover payments, and my case worker says if i haven't heard from them, i am still entitled to hold the pension card.

4:39 am

np zooz, real life comes first!

4:41 am

just went out to the kitchen. dinner will be ready in just over 8 minutes.

4:41 am

Typical though.as my friend has bought his girlfriend a present but he is at work so can not receive it.Asked me to take delivery for him. But it mucks up my day now. Was hoping it would of been here by now. Never mind.

4:42 am

yeah, that sucks, zooz. Not having a job does not mean you can be available all the time. You have a right to your own life.

4:42 am

ugh, zooz. what a pity!! and how kind of you to step up to the mark like that.

4:43 am

If that is all i have to worry about.i am doing well..lol

4:44 am

true, lol. But it still does mess up your day, and that is no joy.

4:47 am

if the weather holds, I am gonna put in some gardening time today. Some stuff can be sowed now.

4:48 am

oh nice sprite. lucky you! mind you i have been eyeing off some easy gardening i could do.

4:49 am

Sounds good.What seeds/plants you going to plant?

4:49 am

timer went off. dinner ready. xoxox to you both.

4:49 am

you should ask Don to make you some gardens-on-tables. Basically a box on legs.

4:49 am

enjoy your dinner, darling

4:50 am

Enjoy your meal, Rose :-)

4:50 am

I seriously doubt the presence of 231 words in this grid

4:51 am

True..lol I am down to 59 words to find.and starting to slow down now.

4:52 am

that does not sound too bad. I have 92 words in and am slowing down already.

4:52 am

Nah it will open up for you.that I am sure.

4:53 am

let's hope for a second wind at some point, grin. At least I got the Ks nailed.

4:53 am

The 8s & 9s are very easy to find in this grid.

4:54 am

I found one combo of those

4:57 am

I still need one K.

4:57 am

do you have 2x K5?

4:58 am

I have the K 5/18

4:58 am

ah, you are missing the ke5/24. Ends in a higher-scoring tile

4:59 am

Oh ok looking...

4:59 am

Good morning, my friends:)

4:59 am

Ha found it just like that! Thanks, Sprite :-)

5:00 am

Hello, Crossy :-)

5:01 am

of course it is a tropical plant, lolllll. If we don't know, it is either a fish or a tropical plant.

5:02 am

yvw zooz! And well done

5:02 am

hi crossy *hugs* How are you and Mrs Elegant?

I am not seeing the Ks (I only have the obvious 4)

5:03 am

do you have the 4/5 combo that rhymes with Marco P***?

5:03 am

and *hugs* for matty goo

5:03 am

goo? GOO? TOO!

5:03 am

KO5 a bit like a fizzy frink but with a different last vowel.

5:04 am

Drink not frink..lol

5:04 am

frink = fuzzy drink. Works for me.

5:04 am

lol

5:04 am

and back.... and yes i inhaled it....

Aah - let me see (and hi all!)

5:05 am

hi matty :D

5:05 am

Hello, Matty :-)

Now I have the ko 4/5

5:05 am

Phone.

5:06 am

wb rose, you should chew better, lolollll (sorry, that is not funny for you. Here it refers to a hilarious dialogue between to famous theater artists.)

5:07 am

if you can't plural it, it isn't the Marco P*** one.

5:07 am

i guessed that...lol....

I have the marco one, and the sharp one

5:08 am

ke5: things you don't know are beyond your ke*, + who is **raid of Virginia Wolf?

5:08 am

My beloved and I are both well, Sprite, but winter will not quite let go just yet; it is minus4C as we speak and it snowed a bit yesterday:(

kenaf

sorrryryyyy!

5:08 am

brrrr crossy, that is cold for Spring.

5:08 am

or use matty's clue, which is much much clearer than mine. Lol. *hugs matty*

5:09 am

Hope the weather gets better for you soon, Crossy.

Thanks - I needed that ;)

5:09 am

yvw matty. Anytime!

5:09 am

It will. Only a few time have I seen it snow into may.

5:09 am

It has gotten a little cooler here too but only slightly.also rain expected on Sunday.

5:10 am

we had a very somber and overcast day yesterday, but today seems to be looking up.

Can anyone give me a clue or stats for the O in the first column?

5:11 am

big sea, matty

5:11 am

matty, think os5/10, willow

5:11 am

Did anyone get a sighting of the meteor showed in the last 3 hours before dawn?

5:11 am

Was way too overcast here

5:11 am

shower

5:11 am

nope, sorry.

5:11 am

Not here, Crossy.

5:11 am

I did not know anything about it :-(

5:12 am

Too bad, seems it was to average 20/ minute in the last few hours of the night

5:12 am

you have got to be joking, crossy. i was soundly asleep. ;-P

5:13 am

I was up at 05:15 yesterday. why could it of not happened then..lol

5:13 am

our dawn, not yours, rosie. this would thave been 3-6 hours ago

5:14 am

ah, my afternoon....nope didn't see it....roflol

5:14 am

Was it the Lyrid shower, Crossy?

5:14 am

that pesky sun, lol

5:15 am

lol, gues you would not have. not awake. i should have quantified that my question was aimed at north america:)

5:15 am

yes, zooz

5:16 am

poor crossy....that tugging on your lower limb is moi.

5:16 am

acck! suns coming up now and we have snow cover all over the place again!!

5:16 am

what????? Rose! Stop that right now!

5:16 am

tugging on what??!

5:16 am

Slamming into the atmosphere at nearly 110,000 miles per hour, 15 to 20 meteors per hour.

5:17 am

nope...not going to, so there... :D

5:17 am

*whispers: harbingers of bigger ones to come... annilation of earth is near*

5:17 am

That's the one, Zooz

5:17 am

oh, crossy...do you have three legs?

5:17 am

yeah right, rose. And I just noticed that the lower limb has become a higher limb. Bad girl.

5:18 am

Bring it on. We can leave the place to the dolphins. I am sure they will do a better job.

5:18 am

dolphins are so much smarter than Man, lol.

5:18 am

i was pulling on the...... nope, not going there... elegant would kill me.

5:19 am

lol

5:19 am

york

5:19 am

oops

5:19 am

and zooz as well. Jeezzzz.

5:20 am

speaking of dolphins did they say? so long and thanx for the fish?

5:20 am

one of our cats is losing it furry little mind. Just had to rescue it from a window curtain. he was 3/4 of the way up it, head down and his back claws stuck.

5:20 am

lol. I love Douglas Adams

5:20 am

that's the one, rose!

5:20 am

http://tinyurl.com/qzox3rc

5:20 am

lolol... crossy

5:20 am

same for me, crossy. Hilarious books.

5:21 am

That link for the Lyrid meteor shower.is crazy long.I just noticed it is over 7 hours long!!

5:21 am

For a year after I first read that book I always carried a beach towel wherever I went;)

5:21 am

I would not bother unless you are mad for it of course..lol

5:21 am

Don't Panic!

5:22 am

Hi and hugs all - very quick visit tonight though.

5:22 am

{{hugs}} liz girl. finally out of the gym, dear?

5:22 am

haha your cat sounds sweet, Crossy..lool

5:22 am

Hello, Liz :-)

5:22 am

"Mr. Dent, you cannot lie in front of this bulldozer forever." "Oh I can't? See who rusts first?"

5:23 am

It is comforting for you ladies though. After reading that book you know you can get a dgynn and tonyxx wherever you go in the galaxy

5:23 am

Wish I could think of a clever answer to that, Rose.

5:23 am

hello dear Liz :D

5:23 am

*wonders if rose was pulling the wrong limb on porpoise*

5:23 am

oh i love it, sprite

5:23 am

ru! *hug* Long time no see. Hope you are ok.

5:23 am

liz, a simple yes or no answer, dear

5:24 am

Hi Ru - up early - or late!

5:24 am

Nes!

5:24 am

Now one of the cats tried to stalk me. had to bonk it on the head with a roll of paper towel. I best give them breakfast brb

5:24 am

douglas adams is so witty. I could quote him for hours, lol.

5:24 am

ruru, what would the porpoise be in that??

5:25 am

choking on my laughter, liz. xoxox

5:25 am

Like I said, a quick visit. Bbl to find some words :) Hugs all around.

5:25 am

later, dear liz

5:26 am

bye Liz *hugs*

5:27 am

!!!!.. lol.. hehe... omg! My son collects stamps now, so I got him one of those starter baggies of world stamps you see at hobby stores. Well, now of course they are everywhere and cat #3 just sauntered by with a stamp with queen liz on it pasted to her cheek!!!.. NOW I will try and feed them..brb

5:27 am

wait until cat sits down on queen Liz and then stands up again.

5:28 am

i think I shall save myself some grief and mail her off

5:29 am

with her heft she will most likely come back postage due;(

5:29 am

rose, one of my favo Douglas Adams quotes: "The story so far: In the beginning the Universe was created. This has made a lot of people very angry and been widely regarded as a bad move."

5:30 am

you can mail her to me, crossy. I collect stamsp for a charity, and I love cats.

5:30 am

absolutely sprite.

5:30 am

absolutely sprite.

5:30 am

ugh, flippin' hiccup

5:30 am

haha i just looked at that one, Sprite!

5:31 am

lol the hiccup was half an hour ago, m'dear. This was your twitchy pinkie again.

5:31 am

also. I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I needed to be.

5:31 am

yeah, that is a good one. Very deep.

5:31 am

i so love the absurdity in the chapter where he arrives home again, and the bulldozer is there.

5:32 am

ohhhh me too! He thought: Yellow! And tried to connect the thought to something else. He set up his shaving mirror and stuck out his tongue. Yellow.

5:32 am

what am i saying?? all his books are hilarious.

5:33 am

You would love her, Sprite. her name is Aberakadabera Hocus-Pocus. She is a ginger kitty, and weighs 15 pounds. We call her Abby for short

5:33 am

awwww so sweet, crossy. Yeah I would love her. But she is perfectly happy with you guys, grin.

5:34 am

She has that name because she can escape form any leash, cat carrier or harness at will.

5:34 am

she is a smart one then, crossy

5:36 am

“The ships hung in the sky in much the same way that bricks don't.”

5:36 am

the 8000 ways to have a gin and tonic and the famous gargle blaster:)

5:37 am

I love deadlines. I like the whooshing sound they make as they fly by.

5:37 am

The planet of sentient mattresses:)

5:37 am

oh yes! That is why the HGTTG is more popular than the galactic encyclopedia.

5:38 am

now that is one of my favorites, zooz and I have already printed out a copy of that one and it is by my work desk

5:38 am

...flying is simply throwing oneself at the ground and missing

5:38 am

LOl

5:38 am

or the planet that is so touristic, it is eroded away and you have to have surgically removed any excess weight when you leave.

5:38 am

lol dos, niceeee

5:39 am

I wish some of our tourists could be surgically removed

5:39 am

That bad huh, Crossy :-(

5:39 am

I believe it. We have lots of tourists here as well, but the majority is japanese. Never a problem with them.

5:40 am

... and the one I use in class ... ... Do you know how much damage it would do to the bulldozer if I was to let it simply run over you ... No ... None at all

5:40 am

... oh well ... gotta run ... keep your towels handy!

5:41 am

As it happened, "None at all" was exactly how much awareness the bulldozer boss had of his being a descendant of Chaka Khan.

5:41 am

bye dos, you too!

5:41 am

tanre s

5:42 am

sowwwwwy! I was flying over the spacebar but didn't miss it, alas.

5:42 am

I think that is the first time i see you do that, sprite!

5:42 am

I try not to. But sometimes I mess up.

5:43 am

As most of us do at some point :-)

5:43 am

yeah. Sad fact of my life, actually, lol. Not just my typing.

5:43 am

close sprite

5:44 am

put a consonant in the space

5:44 am

I know, sweetie. That is what I was aiming for when I fell flat on the spacebar

5:45 am

*picks up sprite* kisses her pinkie

5:45 am

awwwww thanks darling

5:46 am

going to get meds ready if sprite will still be here in 5 minutes.

5:46 am

yeah I will.

5:48 am

Good day, kiddos!

5:48 am

hiya Scrabs :)

5:48 am

Hello, Scrabs!

5:49 am

Was watching a re-homing show for pets on TV last night, Scrabs.Thought of you as they had some beautiful rabbits looking for a new home :-)

5:49 am

I had great difficulty becoming vertical this morning. My alarm went off at 6 and 30 minutes later I got out of bed.

5:50 am

some days are like that. I hope you took time for a cup of tea or coffee before work.

5:50 am

I hate days when i struggle to get out of bed. It only happens to me seven days a week.

5:50 am

Every rabbit I see, I wish I could have here. Actually, I wish every pet could have a home.

5:50 am

I am sipping coffee now and will leave for work in 45 minutes.

5:51 am

Howdy, scrabby. I was woken up by the ice cold, dripping wet nose of a cat being pressed up against my cheek:)

5:51 am

ah, that is good, Scrabs. And lol zooz!

5:51 am

I am on my second cup of tea.

5:51 am

Hahaha, Crossy.

5:51 am

Zooz, it happens to me on days when I must set an alrm.

5:52 am

I ignored that and the cat promptly stood on my cojones

5:52 am

Cojones?

5:52 am

Ha! The cat learned how to get your attention!

5:52 am

the family jewels, zooz

5:53 am

ah a spanish word...lol

5:53 am

next step would have been a dripping wet cold nose against your cojones, crossy.

5:53 am

Eeew, Sprite!!

5:53 am

That is why I got up after that, sprite

5:53 am

Haha.

5:53 am

I knew that. As did the cat.

5:54 am

I need to get image out of my head NOW!

5:54 am

We got snow overnight--a fresh layer of white on everything out there.

5:54 am

There is no sleeping in when it is kitty breakfast time:/

5:54 am

We also got some snow, scrabby

5:54 am

you must be pleased then, Scrabs?

5:54 am

crossy would offer to kiss them better, but again i think elegant would kill me...lolol

5:54 am

I don't envy you guys. Am glad Spring is here most of the time

5:54 am

Yes, better not:)

5:55 am

DON!!!DON!!! look what, Rose , just wrote!

5:55 am

what's with you and crossy today, rose? Hm? Your revenge for Don's floozy? :)

5:55 am

Fortunately the cats claws were sheathed at the time

5:55 am

It is not enough for cross-country skiing or snowshoeing, but it is beautiful. I am ready for spring now--kayaking and mountain biking soon!

5:55 am

roflool......

5:56 am

Wife and I are dying to hit the bruce trail system

5:56 am

kitty thoughts: Hmmmm look at that, a tiny scratch pole!

5:56 am

You are one healthy outdoor sounding lady, Scrabs!

5:56 am

never let a kitty shower with you because EVERYTHING is a dangle toy:((

5:56 am

Fairly fit but I need to lose a lot of weight to get fitter.

5:56 am

Oh good grief, Crossy!

5:57 am

oh my. lalalalalala

5:57 am

I am same. Fit surrounded by fat:(

5:57 am

I would not think your cat could jump that high to get that tiny bit of string LOL

5:57 am

lololllll zooz

5:57 am

lol zooz

5:58 am

zooz!!!! i am dieing here.

5:58 am

Sorry, Crossy. Could not resist that one :-)

5:58 am

he is terrible. I did not even talk about my punctured scrote, but he dives right in

5:59 am

lol

5:59 am

holding on for dear life...

5:59 am

poor crossy. and zooz, you are very naughty.

6:00 am

Funny chat this morning!

6:00 am

Give in, sprite. be assimilated

6:00 am

Nice to have a laugh with babble friends :-)

6:00 am

resistance is futile

6:00 am

*fingernails dug into keyboard*

6:01 am

And see? You thought the chat was dull this morning lol

6:01 am

never a dull moment, lol

6:01 am

Well it is afternoon for Sprite and I :-)

6:01 am

6:02 am

Well that explains a lot. the sun is over the yardarm there.

6:02 am

6:02 am

6:03 am

6:03 am

Congrats , Sprite!

6:03 am

I am fully awake now.

6:03 am

we have a bit of sun today. Lots of white clouds. 's Okay for now.

6:03 am

Then you place a bottle of whiskey on the sidewalk, and if it does not cast a shadow, you have a drink

6:03 am

go go gooooo zooz!

6:04 am

ah good, Scrabs. Nothing like a bit of lively chat to get things going.

6:04 am

hahah I like that one, Crossy!

6:04 am

Wandering off to the kitchen to hunt down some toast to go with my tea....

6:05 am

No I am going to save my last 19 for later, Sprite. I like coming in and out of babble.

6:05 am

WARNING!! i am about to take my meds. in about 15 minutes i will non compos mentis. xoxox

6:05 am

And I am going to some chores.

6:05 am

Very nice chatting to you all today.Happy babbling.toodle pips.

6:05 am

6:06 am

Sweet sleep, Rose for when it comes round.

6:06 am

6:06 am

6:06 am

6:07 am

6:07 am

6:07 am

6:07 am

6:08 am

6:09 am

won't take much more to bring me down nowadays, lol

6:10 am

*giggle* my darling girl

6:11 am

Crossy is back, toast in hand

6:11 am

wb crossy! *grabs the toast* Oh darn, can't ahve toast :(

6:11 am

you can't have toast??

6:11 am

mmmmmm, what's on the toast, crossy?

6:12 am

some apple jelly

6:12 am

nope. Am on a no-carb diet at the moment.

6:12 am

*smacks sprite's fingers* no dearest, no.

6:13 am

apple jelly? what sort of apple? would you like some quince or guava jelly, crossy?

6:13 am

crossyyyyyyy she is hi8tting me!

6:13 am

Play nice, girls:)

6:14 am

* quickly kisses sprites fingers*

6:14 am

I would sell my shrivled soul for some home-made gooseberry jam

6:14 am

yeah, sprite.....

6:15 am

I last had some over 20 years ago and can still remember it

6:16 am

can i send you some crossy? or would it be prohibited?

6:16 am

Stuff is not available commercially, of course. the only way to get it is at the farmers markets

6:16 am

Sadly i think customs would interfere--they like gooseberry jam as well it seems:(

6:17 am

poor crossy. i will pack it in my case when we come over, mate

6:17 am

worth a try though. Pack it in gift paper.

6:18 am

Every harvest season you can see me, with a desperate gleam in my eye--haunting the flea markets and farmers stalls with home-make baked goods, and searching in vain for the elusive gooseberry jam.

6:18 am

crossy, do you have customs rules which prohibit it's import?

6:19 am

There is a great big long list of stuff that we cannot import privately, but i am not up on all the rules and regs.

6:19 am

I would have to do some research

6:21 am

I found 60 words. Now I must get ready for work. Enjoy the day kids.

6:21 am

have a good day, Scrabs

6:22 am

That time--twenty years ago, I found a Mennonite family selling jams and jellies at one of our flea markets. they had a dozen small mason jars of it, and You should have seen their faces when I bought the entire lot:)

6:22 am

Tc scrabby

6:22 am

6:22 am

6:23 am

6:24 am

sprite, whatis on your agenda today?

6:25 am

Do they sell it commercially there, rosie, or do you put up your own?

6:25 am

I hope nothing much. I am gonna shower in a minute. Then translating, a bit of gardening, walking terra. Dieting.

6:25 am

6:26 am

the older ladies.. lol ..in my church prepare it.

6:26 am

6:26 am

Sadly, no. they come from far and wide. Mostly in small communities far south of me near Kitchener. Though i dearly love it, i will not drive 3 hours each way for it;)

6:27 am

She decided to take her coffe in the kitchen and not at her desk. crossy is safe--for now.

Just remembered it when I was watching baseball and played for a bit then.

6:56 am

Ugh, Have just been informed that a problem tooth i have cannot be taken on by my local dentist. he wants to refer me to a dental surgeon;(

6:56 am

Has the soaking method worked?

6:56 am

Aw Crossy - dental problems again :(

6:58 am

it is one tooth right in the back. it is positioned totally sideways and is butting up right against the next tooh. it has never been an issue for me, but now it has a cavity, and cannot be filled like other normally positioned teeth

6:58 am

yes, liz. but i need to watch where the spray is.

6:58 am

7:03 am

"You don't hurt me and I don't hurt you!"

7:04 am

No, she is set on re-organizing my life. As Molly said yesterday, what is it with all my houseguests trying to "fix" me?

7:04 am

12:09 pm

... yeah ... he's actually a nice guy when he's not drunk or high (which until he went into the hospital for chemo wasn't often) ... I don't like the guy but he was nice to my kid in her budget presentation which she thought he was going to rise up a scream about public funding of the arts
