thanks rose
Thanks much, Rose.
good morning all
{{hugs}} and good morning sprite dearest
yesssss finally we meet again, lol! *hugs rose* How are you today, darling?
not too bad. did the washing. and that's all folks... lolll
that is more than enough. Well done.
how are you honey?
pretty good. One more week to go, lol.
i have nearly caught up on all my emails.... the ones i needed to send. how is Terra doing?
yeah!!! and my infusion is next monday. we won't know ourselves and each other.. * grin *
we are not entirely sure. He seems a bit slower and less happy than the first days after the vet visit.
lollll rose! I am glad your infusion is near.
i keep meaning to ask you if you have organised for someone to be with you 24/7 for the first few days home. does not have to be just one person.
could the antibiotics be causing him some grief?
well, funny you should say that... just found out that rob and caya are away on a canoeing course weekend and tim will be starting his introduction week at the university. Looks like I'll be home alone.
yeah that is what I think too, rose. A bit whoozy and tired because of the antibiotics and the painkiller.
sweetie you cannot be alone. the effects of the anaesthetic continue for a few more days. could a friend/s be rostered to call in?
ks killed
well done sprite
*giggles* and now for some real babbling...
yeah I'll talk things over with Rob. We have great neighbours and I am sure they are willing to check on me. And I will be up and about an hour or two after the operation already... so I guess it will all work out.
honey, please listen to me. the pain is going to be more than you could possibly imagine. remember when pugs came home the same day?
they give adequate pain medication, thank God. There is an elevated risk of blood clotting, so they actually make you walk the same evening and implore you to walk a couple of times a day from day one.
you will probably be given injections for blood clotting too. oh God. why don't i live around the corner or even in the same country?
yes, we will be taught how to give ourselves those injections and we need to do that once or twice a day (depending on body weight) for the first two weeks.
please sweetie, don't worry about me. All is under control and it will be fine. This hospital is Centre par excellence for this operation. They have everything covered. And I am careful too.
i'm second on the list to be told you are home, right?
as soon as I can, I will climb the stairs and email you
don't you have a laptop, honey?
no darling, only a pc
aaaggghhhh!!!!!! now i am gonna really get worried. darn, darn, darn.
you know what, please email me your telephone number. I will try and give you a ring. What is the time right now for you?
right niw it is 5:40pm Wednesday
right. 8 hours ahead of me. Should work out, if all goes as planned I will be home in the morning of the next day.
3:41AM Wednesday where i am. :)
hi seain
g'day seain
good morning, sprite. May you heal well.
g'day grannyrose
thanks
sprite, will email you my phone number.
splendid, rose :) I'll make sure to bring it with me to the hospital too.
and i have just realised i can call you. so no cost to you at all.
we'll figure it out, grin. It will be fine.
phantom: alcapa
* small giggle * do you mean alpaca? the long necked sheep? as don calls them.
Hi and hugs :)
{{hugs}} lizgirl
good grief, yes I meant alpaca. I even TYPE the order it is in the grid, lol.
hiya Liz! *hugs* right back at ya. How was your day?
Best this week!
awesome!
Perhaps not! Been really headachy!
ugh, that is not good. Takes the fun out of things, doesn't it. Do you know what is causing it?
Beach was beautiful today.
No but I'm OK now.
Got pool compliance cert :)
yessssss was about to ask. Finally! Praise the Lord and pass the sauce... cert at last.
Hope Allstate good with you and Rose.
Duh!
allstate good here, grin
Fence is painted. All looking good.
Lol!
yay for two things lizgirl. but ugh on the headache. poor you!
Probably got dehydrated on Sunday.
ah, that would do it yes. Fully rehydrated now?
Yup!
good :) I want you all in full health so I can feel free to complain and nag after the operation!
Yay painted fence, hi liz :)
You can do that anyway, Sprite.
Hi Dc! Whole new sets of laws here about pool fencing :( costs a fortune.
nah. What's a little bit of post-op pain compared to what rose and pugs and ruby are suffering?
ah, a homeowners association or local council change requirements on you?
Good point but an op is an op! So you're welcome to whinge as much as you want.
State regulations.
phantom: panorama
thanks Liz :) Will keep that in mind.
phantom: people
phantom: corporeal
*hands sprite an open microphone and soap box*
weee! biggest reg change by government on houses where i live is grass must be not more than 12 inches high.
ugh it is a phantom grid!
at your own risk, rose. Realise though that I might start singing...
i might add i will have the water pistol, loaded and ready.
that might be wise
Govt. regs are all about raising money in my opinion.
of course they are, liz. they need the money to pay the officials to sit there and harass the living daylights out of good honest citizens.
and i am NOT a cynic....
amen to that, Liz, amen to that. "Hey, we could use some more money. Hmmm let's see, what can we think up? Right! From now on every house owner is obliged to have a regulation sticker on the front gate. Cost sticker: 100 dollar. Cost visit regulation guy: 500 dollar. Let's make it a yearly checkup. And a new sticker as soon as this one starts fading... so let's make it a lousy quality..."
This stupid certificate has to be renewed every 2 years - an of course the inspector needs to be paid. Me a cynic too!
$25 for a CPR poster, which like you say, will probably fade.
you simply cannot let your standards drop lizgirl.
Not liking this grid.
Stats for the 7 pls? And a hint if it's nasty ;)
ma7/36. compound word
So, not manpole!

hello everyone :)
re 6/18 ?
RE 6/18 to borrow money again.
Hello, Mrp :-)
Or to lend out something again.
Good morning
hi zoom :))
hi sukee :)
was busy with dinner :)
Hello, Sukee :-)
Hi Mr.
Hi zoo
And I'm back, forgot it goes down at 6AM my time :)
11AM this side of the waters.
Well, Damon discovered the top of the refrigerator last night.
is 8pm over here
did the pepper work sukee?
Unfortunately, no.
the only other thing is to spray the counter tops with orange and pepper oil
I live with WWF wrestling every morning now, great show :)
can't get the last ha5
I don't have any ha 5 s :)
Fairness, or integrity in one's beliefs and actions.
Oh duh that is the HO5...Sorry.
Ty anyway, did not have it.
ta zoom, got that one hunny ;)
you dig a ho** then add a vowel for the second letter.
Not hard to work out which vowel for the second letter as it is a HA5 lol
hmmm ...
I got it, ty
I have seen that before.
no friggin idea
dig a hole?
Basically, a ho you fall in with an added vowel after the H
Correct now add a vowel for the second letter.
ah thanks
sorry, read it wrong :)
And it means, a non-Polynesian :)
No it is the way I clue them.I am not good at clueing.No need to apologize, Mrp.
So finally my new TV is coming today, was supposed to be Monday.
Nice! Bet you are looking forward to it.
I am, sad to say I miss my TV :)
I have been streaming but it`s using up my bandwidth, I don`t have unlimited.
Sorry friends arrived..goto go.
Well, time to go see what to have for breakfast.
See you later.
Good morning, everybody:)
Yaa for new T.V , Sukee! You will love your new smart T.V--once you rip your hair out for an hour programming it:)
I remember my first hour with my new one. After an hour, I was ready to fling it out the door and run down to the reuse centre and get a nice antique tube radio and huddle in a corner, shake, and listen to music.
I highly recommend going down to your nearest electronics store like Staples, spend 25 dollars and get a wireless USB keyboard mouse combo exclusively for your new smart t.v. it will aid in inputting codes, plus these things play Babble very nicely:)
These tvs will also play video clips and movies directly from a USB key. Very handy
I also run a typewriter program called "Omm Writer" in it from a USB key. That way, when I am feeling lazy, I can work on my books or short stories while reclining in my la-z-boy chair:)
Hi all :)
good evening, Liz
Hi Annie
And good morning to you :)
I am enjoying a good cup of coffee right now and babbling.
Sounds good - I've got 32 words to finish - probably will leave some for tomorrow morning.

hard to concentrate listening to IRS canned music on hold. . . . I wish they would go back to the nutcracker suit they had for 20 years. . .
this music sounds like an airline safety video.. .
*suite
Don't remind me I need to call the IRS. Ugh. Have to get some paperwork to file with my dad's taxes since he died last year. I can only imagine the hassle this is going to be.
do you need forms or something else?
I'm not entirely sure. The accountant wrote down what I needed. I can print out forms online, right?
yes you can get them at irs.goc
grrrrr irs.gov
That's on my to-do list for this week.
Magmon, it took two full years to get my mothers estate taxes done with revenue canada. They werenot happt till they got every last cent possible:(
there is also a place where you can order transcripts which will be mailed to his last address if that helps. . .
well estate taxes are only for those with $5 mil in assets now so not too many people file them in the US
It was an ordeal, because till you get taxation clearance you can it finish with the estate lawyers and theirclicks keep ticking
Nope, no estate taxes. It was pretty straight forward. His will left everything to my mom, so no probate. It's just the income taxes.
Clocks
ty jmc
it isn't as hard as you fear mag. . . just need a book to read while you sit on hold. . .
or like me you can babble. . . .
I'll keep the kindle handy :)
oh crossy... that sounds depressing.
:)
Mine was made harder by some things mum omitted from the wiil
that is why it actually pays off to have a lawyer do your will. . . .
Nothing worse than watching family fight ivet stuff not written down
Indeed,jmc
a company integral with aluminum foil is in the grid today
There are some advantages to being an only child. Mom's added me on the deeds to her house and some commercial property and she has a good will, so hopefully everything is in good order.
When mil passed, the last will was already 15 years old:(
sounds like it is mag. . . .
I hipe all goes smoothly magmom
i try to write wills that will survive 20 years. . . i drive my clients crazy but i know how few of them will update them. . . .
Darn tablet...
Ty both. She's in early stages of Alzheimer's so I got power of attorney taken care of yesterday.
GOOD!!!!!!
Good,good that is so important
financial and health care?
Yes, jmc. Plus I've got to sell 2 houses and find one with 4BR so she can live with us.
And alas, I have another appointment to go to now. Happy Babbling and thanks for the advice and support!
a lot of work. . . .the other thing to find is a geriatric social worker to help you will all this. . . again money well spent. . .ours would take mother to the doctor when one of us couldn't
bye mag and take care
That's nice! I will check into that.
hold is over. . . bye all

*and
ha 6/27, pls
i think nbt is "no blank tiles" meaning that in the tile stats there aren't any that say "0/#" and nbs is "no blank stats"? maybe? talking about the word stats... like they have at least one word for each letter length stat?
but correct me if i'm wrong, other people who know better
It always baffle me because they are all rectangles
yeah, i could be wrong on my interpretation. i've never used it because I'm not sure what it means!
ha 6/27 is what you put dirty clothes in
quite logical helena, thanks!
ty Helena

Ack, what blew the chat width?
your rant?! jk
Well then that means that the chat wrap feature is gone and if people don't wrap it themselves, then we
are doomed
Yep, the wrap feature is gone
uh oh ;)
but it is wrapping, just not at the right spot
Wait until someone posts a 24 stanza poem
i think...what do i know about chat wrapping
It's all based on the code that drives this forum It has obviously been adjusted
seems like that happened the other day, then it went back to working
re 5/14, pls
re+ hat
hat? peri
yes, a small hat mabye
re5...a short synopsis of what happened the night before
good clue, Molly
People read re5s of TV shows on the internet
Speaking of TV shows, I will be glad when the Fall season gets underway. Summer TV is a wasteland
I have not watched much TV this summer. I don't watch that much TV in general
I have a few shows I follow and I miss them when it's off season
FW, happy babbling all
i don't either peri, especially not on their schedule...i'll watch on netflix or on demand
I quit watching broadcast TV years ago I always watch on some sort of streaming platform
ty molly and peri
owwwwww
anyone have the lower H
Oh no, what did you do?
lots unpacking, resulting in a knot in a particular spot in my back
wait what just happened, i didn't mean to make the chat too wide
You didn't. Something is wrong with it.
ok glad it wasn't me
I think the lower H is h + high card + high point tile
thanks
would also love pointers for the 7 & 8
hi hursh
hi TO, how are you?
mo8...dancing around the May object while having the kissing disease
LOL great clue
fine, and you?
ma8...masculine lasso
well, sore, but other than that, good
Er...ma7
thanks Molly!
why sore?
moving. currently in the unpacking stage.
ah, yes.
I have to wear a back brace when I schlep heavy boxes or I throw my back out
well it's weird cause it's not LOWER back, like heavy lifting can cause, it's just this knot in my upper right back
bending,twisting.
if someone used my email address to sign up for an instagram account, and it wasn't me, does that mean i should change my email pwd, or is all i need to do tell instagram, this is not me
Oh, you can mess with your upper back like TO said, bending, twisting, pulling, pushing
i think try telling them if you can get a real person
for fun, try seeing what is posted
There is a massive amount of hacking going on regarding email. It's always a good idea to change your password if you find out your email address has been used or compromised.
yes. there is .and i got that crazy "youre computer has a dangerous virus, call microsoft"waning yesterday when I clicked on a fb item
well it's like, just cause they use the EMAIL address, that doesn't have to mean they have the pwd, does it? but it's just worrisome cause I've been using lots free wifi, since I won't have it at home yet for another week
Oh my, hackers love people who use free wifi
i know
but i don't have a choice right now
:(
so i feel like i should wait and change pwds on things AFTER i get secure home wifi
gee my husband is being kept much later than he thought he would be
Just don't use free wifi to access your bank, credit cards or anything else that deals with financial stuff. And that means Amazon, because most people have credit card information on file there
do you have avast? that helps
to change the subject, i want to make cookies that will not melt in the heat. any ideas?
cookies that will not melt... wouldn't like, lots of kinds not melt?
Oatmeal raisin
oatmeal... shortbread... peanut butter... never heard of any of these "melting"
that is a good one. i thought snickerdoodles
i hate pb cookies
i mean anything that doesn't have like a candy chocolate kind of component i would imagine it would be fine
i bought some snickerdoodles at a bakery recently, quite good.
It's funny, I like peanut butter but I am not fond of peanut butter cookies
i made the chocolate browmie sea salt ones, cannot cope with other melters
taking a break, happy babbling

Not sure about naan - but I do make pita crisps - split pita, low oven for about 20 mins - perhaps the same theory would apply.

my screen is all messed up, teeny tiny, tile stats scrambled...is there something going on...I upgraded to Win 10...could that be it?
No, there is some glitch in this program. The chat log was all blown wide earlier today. Try refreshing.
refreshed but still the same mess...the screen jumps around and sometimes gets highlighted in blue....reminds me of the 60's, LOL
I can't speak to whether or not this program is compatible to Windows 10. I am refraining from updating until I hear more about how people are doing with it.
Or compatible with
yes I should have done that also...lost all my bookmarks...harumph!
Also, it depends on what kind of device you are using. People seem to have problems with this site on tablets or smaller screen devices.
It is always good to keep a list of your bookmark urls in a Word Document in case you lose them somehow.
Nah....same ole' 'puter I've had for a few years...I thought maybe someone had a picture that was making the screen jump...that used to happen and Jillibus used to get them to correct it....oh well will enlarge print so I don't have to strain my eyes...thanks anyway...
But they should have imported with the upgrade.
Are you having trouble with other sites? Because like I said, this site has been glitchy today.
Yes you are right but apparently there are many complaints about the issue...the orgs are fighting it out like a bund of children...will get resolved one day
Nope only site with hiccups is babble...just annoying but I can deal...
It's probably the problems going on here then. There is nothing I hate more than losing my bookmarks.
...maybe I need to slap my 'puter a bit, LOL
amen, molly....miss my bookmarks...had them just like I wanted them...
