Hey there, TraderKate. Hope all is well with you.

Sleep well all in the US and have a peaceful, warm afternoon, Vanilla
Suits me today as we're going out tonight.
night liz.. take care
It started with a tumor in the bladder early last year but they did not find it that year and it has now spread to lungs, shoulder and leg
damn.. fogot to take out the " /n "
But normally I'd agree.
wow..vanilla..wow.
FW and off to bed, up early and off to Vancouver to spend thanksgiving with daughters, etc
night flosey
Congrats, flosey!
sorry it has spread Van; but don't lose hope...
our bucket list is small and enjoy one day at a time
Hi and bye and congratulations Flosey!
oh Vanilla, so sorry, and yes, as Kate says, keep positive thoughts
Sorry. I REALLY must go t bed now :( happy babbling everyone :)
The treatment side efffects have been minimal but lately I have to take more morphine for the pain.
glad you're able to join us here, Vanilla
goodnight all
yes, but I'm not so set on finishing now
great chatting with you, Vanilla
thx flosey same from my side
found a swimmy thingie
17 to go and at a complete standstill lol
Vanilla, I truly believe that we aren't going anywhere until it'sOK between us and our maker.
O dear, Ivé been at peace for many a year and Im still here
Yep.
I'm just praying that others will make their peace before they have to leave here
Well, dear friends, I ran over one of the dogs toes and now I have to be extra loving on his little paw. Blessings
dammmmmmmmmmmm
poor dog
what do you mean by that vanilla?
I've seen too many so terribly unsettled at their death also because they had not made peace with family and others
oh.. that.. yes.. I agree. although i'll never make peace with my mother
that's sad, ru but may not be possible now
Having lost my youngest son (age 26) almost a year ago, I have made a kind of peace.... no longer fear dying, because I will see him again. But I can say, I learned that you can never give too many hugs. HUG your lovies often. Be patient with them. And show them you love them.
it's not possible. It's too toxic for me. I'm at peace with my decision
good plan susan. I'm sorry for your loss too
for now, perhaps,but we are all so human and all of us fail in many resppects
we all had an interesting discussion the other day about loss.
Thank you, Ru.... I'm having a lot of anxiety as the date (oct 20) approaches. But also finding so many things that bring peace. And I'm very blessed with a great family.
I commented that losing your child would be the absolute worst and most difficult thing..
that's good susan
I would think that he made a great impression on many people and that his time here was meaningful
I think that that may depend on the circumstances and timing ru
yes.. I was kind of corrected on that vanilla and now look at it differently.. loss is loss and whether it be a spouse, a relative, a child, it's devastating
it certainly is
at the same time I am hoping and advising that they will not be devastateds when I go, just be thankful for the life we had together
that would be the best huh vanilla.. I agree
I'm off to bed. a big hug vanilla and susan. take care
18 wrds to go and bogged down, time for break. Thanks for the chats and well-wishes
hello all - vanilla lovely to see you and read such a sensible and kind approach - wish you well
vanilla, may I add my saddness at your devastating news. I am so sorry that you have been handed this experience but I, like ursh, are impressed by your common sense approach. Sending hugs and blessings your way
(((Vanilla)))
Hello to anyone who is here :-)
Love to you Vanilla, I will include you and yours in my prayers. Love to you all in fact!
And to you, Marmar :-)
I really love this Babble family.
shir
Yes we do have a caring babble community.Have helped me when I had difficult times too!
I tried that non word too lol
I think it is shirr
so many almost words...
marmar, hello. Where in Germany are you from?
HI Bichon, Gießen, north of Frankfurt am Main.
Actually from Texas but lived here for years.
Okay, hubby born near Hannover, but has lived here since a young child
Germany is wonderufl, have you visited?
Many times. But, I haven't been there in about 25 years
We actually we actually will be taking a Danube cruise in April
That's nice. I havn't been home in years and still miss it but love it here. Gießen had a big busy Army base, it's been closed for a few years, but there's still a def. American presence.
The cruise sounds wonderful, my inlaws did something like that and loved it.
Good morning, everybody:)
We start in Budapest and will end the trip in Prague
hi crossy
Oh my! I might have to work-up to a cruise. I was never a fan of cruising or boats even, but that sounds grand.
Howdy Bichon.. whew, right column grayed out...had to work for that one :)
gotta go all, have fun!
Bye, Marmar :-)
Hello, Crossy :-)

You too, Kallia, Take care :-)
Nice to see you too :-)
Had frost again this morning :)
Fall colours are in full swing :)
I am sure it will not be long before we start getting frost here too, Crossy.
The leaves here are just starting to turn but have a way to go yet.

Yaa for kittychan!
It's unreasonable how much pride I feel right now. If only I could put this kind of effort into something useful. :-0
congrats!
kittychan - i'm sure you are gone by now but - i hold out hope that somehow in heaven there will be some usefulness in finding twisted up words in a letter grid
Awww, thanks hurshy. Let's all hope for that!
No victory, no matter how small, is ever wasted, Kittychan :)
lol, I should really pay more notice to the post times in here...

good morning ms molly
Hello Mr. Ru
first grid i have finished in a long time :)
love the photo molly. still not fall colors here yet
good for you squrell.. this one wasn't that hard though :D
lol i know. why i finsihed it and i have babble expert again,,,huge help for me
well.. it's nice there are some smaller grids for some players to finish. Nice sense of accomplishment
We are on the brink of Fall colors. (Or colours if you need to add an extra U) It doesn't get really vibrant around here for another month or so.
i wish we had fall colors, im in panhandle of florida and we dont have fall colors.
here the vineyards turn yellow and red.. that's our fall colors
I would really miss the season change if I lived somewhere with no seasons. I could do without Winter though.
Hello! Is anybody home?
aaah, I wasn't sure of the babble time
TGIS! Hiyas, kiddos!
Ruby! How are you?!
happy Saturday judi
how goes the job search?
Hiya, Ru. The job search goes. Sending out resumes left and right.
what are you applying for ?
Admin. Assistant, Office manager, etc. Anything that's in the related wheelhouse.
Queen of any small democratic country...
ah..princesse is out?
Syria is looking for a queen..but you'd have to wear a burka :D
I feel I'm overqualified for princess. Wouldn't want to backslide.
ah.. so true
a new job will cut back your babble time however :D
Well, my transfer to new office has already done that. Bastards!
(might be good for you though)?
Um, no.
oh.. sorry
I'm trying to be here less now as a rule.. unless I'm bored or haven't finished the grid
Babble is a sanctuary. Not that I'm addicted or anything...
Looking for work when you are "over a certain age" is tough these days. Employers want them, young and okay with working for a crap salary and no benefits.
It is more of a sanitorium than a sanctuary
sanatorium ?
That is somewhat true, Molly. However, Delaware is a small state so the competition is a bit less daunting. That, and I can pass a criminal background check and drug test with no problem. Puts me far ahead of much of the younger gen.
A sanitized sanatorium.
I could pass the criminal test too.. the other.. errr
LOL. Practice makes perfect.
there goes my belief that Judi was a double agent for the Mafia
I eat a lot of Poppy seed muffins judi :D
I choose only to use my powers for good. *cape billows in the wind*
Nah. Don't like poppyseeds. Nevertheless, I am ready for a pop pee test if necessary.
Passing a criminal background check and a drug check doesn't get you very far around here. But hey, if you speak Spanish and English, that is a plus. And that annoys the crap out of me.
I only speak English. So, tough tortillas. I suppose I could always download a translation app onto my smart phone. Lord knows my smartphone is smarter than me anyway.
What does the 8 start with?
Hello. I'm back.
Hi, Ruby!
I'm playing less than I used to because I don't have to hide any more.
Hi, Judi.
Smart phones freak me out. They can give you a flashlight, a compass and a level (for hanging things straight on the wall) I guess when they cook dinner I will get one.
Why would you ever have to hide, Ruby?
When my husband would "sundown" in the evenings.
Now he's in a beautiful nursing home and he's doing much better than he did at home, can roam freely and push old ladies around in their wheelchairs
And I can sleep
Ah. Oh, that's so good to hear, Ruby. So glad you were finally able to arrange that for him.
Unfortunately, this space is only available for 2 months, but the Conseil General is helping me to find a permanent place for him
Such good news!
send him to his daughter's home ruby
fell off my chair laughing....
:D thought so
And my blood tests are improving
that's good
I may actually live long enough to complete another grid!
That's a little dramatic don't you think?
<-- drama queen
It is a pleasure being in this house alone with my pups
yes.. I'm sure it's better. It is impossible to care for someone with that condition once things go south.. aggressiveness cannot be tolerated
Molly was always right about my husband, but it took an emergency to get him placed
Sleep can do wonders for your body's ability to fight and replenish.
Molly is right about a lot of things
for sure
Found the 8!
Stats, pls
cranky koi
gr 8/90
Indeed.
I hope you find a really great new job judi
found it from cranky. Ty ru
Thanks, Ru. Me too.
I'm so glad I'm self-employed when I read shit like that
yw ruby
That's another area I am investigating. Can always go on hubby's health insurance. Looking inter several different options, really.
into, rather.
I hear Kentucky is looking for a new County Clerk :D
Ha! That would be a bit of a long commute.
but think of all the couples you could make happy
and you could meet the pope
Absurd that she got to meet the Pope. Did they draw names out of a bucket or something?
That's what I was thinking. After meeting the pope, you can never reach that peak again
He was just re-affirming the Vatican's position. She didn't deserve his audience, but I guess he needed to make a point
Unfortunately
Good night everybody. It's very nice to be back and relaxed.
one of his minions screwed up and set that up.. it was quickly down-played by the church
night ruby..
I don't care who marries who. Consenting adults should be the only requirement.
Good night, Ruby! Pleasant dreams!
Funny, the two different meanings of minion.....
I prefer my minion fileted.
I'll go on record here.. Kim Davis is a cretin
That's fireworks for me!
well.. it was nice seeing you for a bit..
Ditto! Off I go to vacuum dog and cat hair. *POOF*
hello...
woo hoo side columns done! afternoon all :-)
Ruby: My cancer is now defined as chronic with quarterly infusions of the equivalent of Fosomax. We're keeping it at bay. I know you said you's might be chronic too. I hope that works out. Glad to hear about the placement. Some things just go on too long.
yours
Is she gone again. I have no luck. I thought she'd be pleased to hear that.
I'm sure she will sally. And good luck to you both
I second your Kim Davis notion except I think you must have some brain function to be a cretin. ;)
Fireworks!
woo hoo sally! 3 left here
down to a missing P4 - I have a pr4 & 5 x pu4
what's my missing p4?
pf4?
you know what I say to that? pf4!
and also firewords
Yeah, it looks like the atrocious misspellings on the internet
tx Molly! no lickety for me today (rare)
58 words are pretty easy to find without assist.
speak for yourself :-P
Oops, I forgot that "The Good Wife" thing. In my opinion...
For those of you who don't watch the show, there is a judge that requires attorneys in her courtroom to preface everything by "in my opinion"
down to a missing S5 - i have SH x 2, SI x 4, SR x 1 - what am i missing
I love The Good Wife.
nm - ** finito ** last word SI 5/14
woo hoo wvt!
hiya dan, how ya been?
been good pipp, though I've probably been driving my FB friends crazy on the gun issue since the Oregon tragedy
miss2bit starting Kindergarten has deepened my perspective
It's sad that people are now afraid for their kids when they are in school. Unfortunately, the crazies who decide to go on a school shooting spree will find a way to get weapons whether they are legal or not.
I think the beginning of the answer to that problem is improving the mental health care in this country.
hi people and good afternoon
*Passes Cos some Peanut Butter Kandy Kakes*
Molly I closed yesterdaya!
Congratulations, homeowner.
Now waiting for the furniture to arrive.
Cos - many congratulations on becoming a homeowner. The fun starts here! :-/
the dogs are so happy they keep running around in the yard
New furniture too? Ooo.
no... the movers are bringing it later today lol
Dan - your FB post the other day was absolutely terrifying ..... 5 year olds practicing lockdown???? Good God!
we practice lock downs at work.. all grades. its sad
Dear God! What has the world come to?
I practice lockdowns in my home.. but that's just in the bedroom :D
three letters soodle... N...R...A
Schools have to be ready for any eventuality. It's sad that the schools have to do that, but better that they are prepared.
Maybe 2bit should be packing?
As an outsider looking in, it seems to be a no-brainer. Restrict access to guns. But maybe I'm missing something.
back in my day we only had tornado drills and fire drills ,, now we have bombing drills, shooting drills, fire drills, tornado drills, and one more for severe evacuations
no you;re not soodle. not at all.
2nd amendment calls for a well regulated militia.. WELL-REGULATED... NRA opposed regulation therefore NRA opposes 2nd amendment ;)
*waves to Doren*
anyhoo its a lovely day for gardening
Yes, a beautiful day for gardening, even though the NRA and the second amendment have nothing to do with crazies who open fire in schools. : P
kinda... they dont want regulation and make sure congress does not therefore its easier for the crazies to obtain guns ;)
I think gardening should be regulated.. with all them hoe's and all
But I will concede the crazies would find a way to get guns regulated or not
In this part of the world, if you buy a firearm, you are vetted by the police, and every year, you must apply to have your licence renewed. If you come to the attention of the police - even for a traffic violation, your licence is voided - you surrender your gun. End of story.
it's easier to get a gun at walmart than cigarettes
Everyone has their own opinion on this. I won't start a debate about it. I do find it sad that people in other countries thing that Americans are all walking around toting guns though.
soodle that would be a great system, except for the literally hundreds of millions of privately owned guns already among us
I think we can all agree theres no simple answer.
*think
we like protection for our crack dealers
Hey Dan ... This I know! It's just dreadful to think of all those young lives snuffed out by the crazies.
and done
Well done Cos!!!!
Again, addressing the lack of mental health care would go a long way towards reducing the kinds of crime being discussed.
Absolutely Molly
off to play a hidden game
Well - after yet another full day dealing with the problems of geriatric parents, I'm whacked. Good night all
clue for the 7 or 8?
gr8 is kinda grumpy
ty
hello friends.
does anyone remember what the big ui word was from the other day? I never did find it....
uithania or something like that
Uithanites maybe?
thanks ruru. I had no clue at all
how are you?
I had to look it up on A2Z
I'm fine.. looked at a house today.. liked the location, but the rooms were two small
ugh, I found that a ton when we were looking at houses, back in the day....I don't do well in tiny spaces
backed up to a large vineyard and had nice views though. Great kitchen.. but the rest of the house was too small
too small I mean
can you expand? is that an option
I really (at this stage of my life) just want something Turn key and not a lot of remodeling.
I survived tons of remodeling in our old home
sounds like a plan
yeah.. it'd be better for me.
I just want a modest house too.. nothing too large
are you in a rush to move, or do you have some time to look carefully?
I have lots of time. I'm just renting right now..but I do want my own home
I get that.
funnily enough, I am starting to think about how much fun it will be when I can downsize
our last house was over 3,500 square feet.. I am looking for 1,200-1,400 now..
Downsizing is easier to clean
amen!
not that I'm a total clean freak..but still
my house is about that, 3500...for just tertiare and I. The taxes are backbreaking
that's the other thing .. yes.. the taxes and insurance are killers
we just finished our taxes for 2014 (we had to take an extension) and I got killed by the IRS
our last year of filing together
oh dear. am I sad, or not sad? I mean, it's always sad, at some point.
yes.. but we're past that.. we're back to being friends again. It's been really good for both of us.
None of the drama that you had with mr. Hate.... but it was an effort to keep an even keel over the whole thing. I don't recommend divorce for anyone
me either, but, on the other side of it now, it was absolutely the right thing
I'm a different person now too.. that I'm happier being alone
im glad you have found peace, of a sort. a new home environment really can change things. sometimes a change of scene changes a LOT
lots of counseling however got me to this point
oh, good for you!!! I am a HUGE fan.
I did that so that I wouldn't overreact to shit and be a jerk. I really do want the best for her and I still do love her.. so it really helped to not have things get out of control.
trying to convince a certain unnamed party that he might wanna try some....
you are a wise man
He should.. if he has issues. I'm not clear on what they are but sounds fairly important that they're dealt with
anger management, grief, loss.....but I digress....
oh.
anger is a big one
I adore my therapist. she hauls my ass like no one else. with great love, and even greater wisdom
mine is cool too. she gets me. I'm a better person for it
amen brother
I am hoping that if I find another relationship.. I'll be wiser and see what I need in a relationship and take it from there
I gave my soul away in the last one
that happens. I gave my voice away. ugh. Won't make that mistake again. EVER
yes.. exactly what I did too..
shrug. we are human. we both learned. there you go
I'm so much wiser now.. that's for sure
I wish I had know all this shit in my 30's :D
known
I would feel much wiser if I could find the rest of these frigging p words, ha ha ha
ah.. the p's are fun
you couldn't have known it then, without walking the path you did. some lessons need the tincture of time.
I have to go fix some things at my ex's today to help her in fact.
that's nice of you.
yes.. I don't mind. it all may change when I have a girlfriend..but we'll see :D
indeed. I found I did not wish to rush into dating. I wanted to sit in my self for a while. but everyone is different.
jeez.. it's been over two years for me.. I don't think you could say I am "rushing"
mr hate rushed RIGHT the hell in.....always struck me as odd, that.
I needed that break too.. to regroup.. make better choices.. blah blah blah
blah blah blah is key, yes!
hahaha
Howzat?
never mind....c's conquered, go me!
how did mr hate rush in?
he was living with someone before we were divorced.
he sounds like a total asshole
within weeks of moving out, in fact.
TOTAL
but he wasn't always. he was always selfish, and then he got way worse.
I am a generous person to a fault.
I feel very sorry for him. he turned his whole world upside down, and he still has absolutely no clue - NO CLUE who he is, how to be a father, any of it. poor clueless schlub
he will regret that .. someday
I don't believe he will. Every. single. thing. in his life is someone else's fault. Someday he will have EXACTLY the relationship with his children that he has earned. And it will always be everyone's fault but his.
ah.. a narcissist
g's gone
got all the p's now?
it's an easy grid today
not even remotely. I have abandoned them to work through the alphabet, loosely
has valentine called you since your get together?
I have been on the road since 6:40 this morning - I'm pretty wiped out.
ugh
I did that the other day.. it's harder for me to do that now
12 hours of driving
oh, yes, and we had a meal together, and saw a movie. we are keeping it very low key and not, how to say...superficial, but trying to go on dates, rather than all this serious stuff.
oh.. good start then
car.eeyore handled most of the driving, but it was still a long ass, stressful day (family funeral)
oh..sorry
yes. I am being very, very honest with him, and totally using that voice of mine! poor man!
sounds like the directness could do him some good
I don't know if it is doing him any, but it's doing me a frigging world of good
oh sure.. that's a given
not easy for me, actually. I tend to let things build up....
hmmm.. I don't stuff anything any longer .
I like that in the new me
I am definitely working on it.
it is very freeing
and it makes it easier to see who your real friends are and who isn't
at the end of my marriage, mr hate and I really did not get along. we bickered constantly. I made a conscious decision, when I chose to date again, not to focus and fuss over the minutiae. but it's a slippery slope. some battles ARE worth fighting
or at least mentioning....
I had to directly tell my ex that we weren't married so she couldn't boss me around anymore and said to her.. if you are going to treat me like this.. I'll just leave and you let me know when you have resolved your problem
she apologized later that night
wow. good for you!
it's so much better to be clear
tactful though? I work on that one a lot
Tactful but direct
No emotion.. just level
I should get that tattooed on me somewhere.....
she said "you aren't leaving" .. I said.. well you can watch me leave then :D
oooh, pass her some aloe for that burn!
she figured it out and apologized for her behavior. all good now
do you think it is true that we teach people how to treat us?
yes.. I do now
but part of that is knowing what your own personal boundaries are
hmmm. will think on that
ok.. I'd better run.. really nice chatting with you Trif.
<-mr. fix it man today
you too!
