bye
good morning all
((sprite))
How were the festivities?
*hugs ruby* All went well and Caya had a wonderful day. How are you holding up, darling?
not very well, I'm afraid
If spring ever comes, I'm sure I'll feel better
hardly surprising, sweetie. You need sunshine and warmth and light. And.... time. To grieve and mourn and work through the whole situation. And lots of hugs, of course.
How did Caya react to the photo album you so lovingly maade for her?
she LOVED them. Both photo albums, and the albums with the congratulation cards we received for her birth. And the book with the recipes of our favorite dishes.
After thee first week, when I was still in denial, it hit me. After all, we had been together more than 30 years!
You are a wonderful mother!
only natural, ruby. That is how it goes with grief. First it seems like one is coping pretty well. And then BAM it hits. Yes, you were together for over 30 years. And most of it was in a loving relationship. It was only near the end that it became very hard, with B dementing and you losing patience. But the foundation was love.
aww thanks. I hope I am. I try to be.
ks killed
you still there, ruby? You know we are there for you, don't you? All the way.
so close to coitus
phantom: antidote
back! The housekeeper came, made a fire, fed the birds and walked the dogs
And the storm, as predicted, is starting
ah wonderful. Welcome back.
good weather to stay indoors and cuddle up in bed
{{hugs}} and good morning dearest sprite. {{hugs}} darling ruby. xoxox
The housemay not be very clean, but these other things she does, make up for it
(((rosie!)))
*hugs rose* Hello my dear friend. Good evening to you. How did your day go?
yeah it is a good compensation for sure
church this morning... back to usual time so slept a little later. lunch out with beloved. rest of the day sitting quietly in the A/C.
sounds good to me, rose. How is the ole bod behaving?
rose rocks!
it's behaving quite nicely, thanx. how was your night?
not so great, tbh. Might be needing a day or two to get settled.
*giggle* really ruby. you will make my head swell...
name those proper nouns: -shakepearean character from Merchant of Venice - fashion label - opera Verdi
prada.... aida....lost me on the merchant
portia
I will reward you partially... half of a pepper and salt shaker set. Which half would you like?
ahhhh. merchant was never one of my fave's. romeo, macbeth, hamlet
sprite knows more about English lit than most anglophones
*giggle* the top half
roflolll rose, ok you got it
lol ruby, I wish
Almost a Puccini opera too.
hi Frances!
Hello sprite. Hope you are well.
hey ya frances. xoxox
hello Frances
tosca or trittico?
Turandot
I am fine, thanks. How are you doing?
oh, nice one!
Not too bad sprite - apart from still struggling with the weight.
it is a tough battle, Frances. I know. Good to hear the rest is not too bad.
gaining or losing?
Unfortunately not losing ruby.
pls send some over he**
ruby has an equally tough battle trying to gain some weight
Oh dear. Ruby you are more than welcome to some (a lot) of mine.
I look like a skeleton, ghastly/ghostly
I once sent ruby over a 100 kg of my weight... but she sent it all back home with me :(
The oncologist gives me helpful hints like "Eat foie gras!" LOL
ah isn't that a sweet advice, grin
Is it raining there, Sprite?
not at the moment. It's off and on here.
I think we're getting what's left of "Henry"
The most beautiful sunny day he** today. The very high winds of yesterday have gone.
name that proper noun: dorothy's dog
toto
ahhere they came from!a, that's w
dingdingding... that netts you the other half of the shakers, rose
tot
toto
aha, she said
lollll
dingdingding... Frances wins the toaster
Thanks sprite - a toaster that will sit in the cupboard. Toast is off the menu.
ah, you are trying out the low carb thing! Good for you!
you could use it as a paperweight frances
I am. But I am missing fruit. I love fruit.
and fill it with dried flowers, very crfty
I hear ya, Frances. That was what I missed most too. Good thing is, once you are down in weight, you can reintroduce fruit to your diet, a little bit at a time.
Why is fruit bad?
better not plug it in though. One careless moment and gone are all the flowers.
fruit is not bad, ruby. It is just high in carbs. It is mostly sugar.
ruby fructose, the sugar in fruit creates lots of carbs.
Natural sugars ruby. I love grapes but they are so high in sugars.
And grapes are very good for the heart.
back in a few, gonna grab me some breakfast
If you can imagine, my major sources of calories now are dried fruit and nuts.
Allthat talk of food sprite.
I lost 5 words when the red boxes appeared and have no idea what they were
Ruby, try nut butters or oily fish for a change.
Do you have stats for the 9?
back :)
I am looking for xashew butter but am allergic to peanuts
How about almond butter?
Once a week or so, the delivered meals contain a piece of fish, much better than their " mystery meats"
cashew butter should work then
Mystery meat doesn't sound good.
I might have to leave the house to find it lol
or order online, ruby
They cover the meat with dark sauces so I rinse it off and feed it to the dogs. Sometimes it's even rabbit!
good ide, sprite!
Trust sprite to come up with th best ideas.
ruby, re9/60
ah the french cuisine... uses each and every part of all animals, lol
I just knew it had to be a re, darn it...
ty, rosie, I'll start hunting
don't you just looove the re's... NOT
I am in my usual form. Almost done and still no biggies at all, grin
how about the 3rd letter so I'll know which way to face
Thanks for the 9. Got it.
t
yay frances
Thank you rose
retartian - not too bright martian
Very good sprite
haha
*giggle* put it in
ok :)
phantom: tapioca
puridate - squeaky clean first outing
ohhh love it
added
sprite I thought of you the other day when repint (refill your beer) was in the grid.
good one. Adding it too
yay got the 9 and reached half!
good job, ruby
yay ruby. good job
actually the martian word helped me
or what sprite said... lollll
grin... ok now I have to see if the martian word will help me find it too
and it does. Thanks ruby
yay sprite. you rock
the lake has disappeared! uh oh
Fog?
why ruby? has someone pulled the plug?
I rock, though very slowly, lol
no, it's just dense rain, the garden and trees, then white
bad weather on the horizon, ruby. Close the windows and cuddle up with the doggies :)
yeah sprite, in your granny rocking chair
nothing like cuddling up with wet dogs.....
yayyy I love rocking chairs. And the lovely saying that worrying is like sitting in a rocking chair... it gives you something to do, but takes you nowhere.
Raffie stays outside except for snacks and sleep at night. She hs such dense fut that she doesn'tmind the cold
Cuddling dogs - wet or dry -is wonderful therapy.
fur*
Rufie has really stepped up; he's definitely the man of the house now
Have you seen my picture of Buzz Lightdog?
He sniff-checks any visitors
good Rufie
no I haven't
No, Frances, where to find them?
My icon picture.
lollll he is scary, Frances!
He is wonderful. Will be sixteen in August.
haha, I looked at the photo and thought he was a lamp!
What kind of dog is he?
wow, impressive age
He is a weimaraner/hungarian viszla cross.
Sadly, chows just live 10 years, if I'm lucky
He is the most affectionate dog I have ever known.
My second chow,Rufus, back in Liami, was in love with a beautiful grey weimaraner named Victoria
Miami*
awwww
my darling friends. i have to go. it is half past my bedtime and meds are making me sleeeeeepy. xoxox
She was a nasty spinster, but loved Rufus
sweet dreams, rose *hugs*
Dogs really do fall in love. Riz is totally smitten with a mutt called Ethel.
sweet dreams, rosie!
Nigh rose. Sweet dreams.
He used to go to her door and rap on it
fireflies. *hugs* to you all and thanks for the lovely company. Ruby, will keep you in my prayers.
((sprite)))
Hugs back sprite. Enjoy your day.
Francees, you've given me an idea of what to do with husband's ties
Do tell ruby.
I make quilts with them.
Started when I bought a job lot of 100 on ebay very cheap.
They were all silk.
Yes, you said that you make silk quilts. If I ever get out from Under my paperwork, I think I'll start de-constructying them
They arte
magnifique
I love making them. I make them entirely by hand. Haven't used my sewing machine for at least thirty years.
*sorry for the typos; I'm wrapped in a blanket and arms are somewhat constricted
No problem ruby. Important for you to keep warm.
My husband gave me a sewing machine when we moved here, but I've never used it
Perhaps you should get one of those programs where you speak and it types for you.
The rain is starting to look chunky, maybe it's becoming snow
I know that it takes so much longer to sew by hand but I find it so much more satisfying.
I need the exercise haha
I need exercise too. However, my painful knees will not let me.
I can't do much, mainly it"s just the stairs (many flights a day) and putting logs on the fire
When I lost all the weight, it was my muscles that went
Stairs are a killer for me. If I go out I have to plan my day so that I can avoid them. Not a good look when you have to put your hands on the stairs to help you up them.
na
sometimes, if I'm carrying something, that's what I have to do
This house is on a hillside, so it has 3 levels
Ruby have you thought of one of those static cycling machines that you use whilst sitting in your chair?
hi marigold
I don't know if >I'm breathing well enough for that
Last night, I couldn't get to sleerp because I felt like I was suffocating
That is a horrible feeling. Does it help if you sit up for a while?
I slept practically sitting up. I'll see what the doctor says on Tuesday, but I think I need a new MRI
Yes, hopefully the doctor can help you with that. Good luck.
It is horrible being sick!
It is but i hope you are on the mend.
Thank you for you kind thoughts, Frances.
nbt, nbs and time to rest
aah, the snow has started
aah, the snow has started

LBD, you always seem to fly through these grids in record time. I figured this game comes easier to you than most.
if you have the re 6/21 - just add picnic pest to the end
It's something that slows another thing down

back in a bit -- taking pups out to pee, then grabbing a BIG coffee :-)
tadone!! I think I should have had a big coffee before i started. maybe the monkeys would have stayed on the right keys. getting the message EIIOESKL:G is not in the dictionary was rather frustrating. LOL
woo hoo lbd & gran! morning all
Greetings 2Bit. Happy Superbowl Sunday. May your beer stay cold and the food be outstanding. Oh, and hope it's a good game with The Broncos emerging as victors.

Whoopee!
Pot and Bloody Marys at 11 AM. Hoo-ah!
we'd have to change the name from Hego to FUGO
LOL molly
Hego's doorbell doesn't go ding dong.. it goes Bing BONG
I talk a good party, anyway.
:D
By Superbowl time, Hego and Mr. Hego will be like "the Who-cos and the What-thers?"
actually, it does go bing bong. lol
*(Michael phelps is pacing outside hego's house)
*knew that hego.. just knew that*
HaHaHa!
my doorbell plays the oompa loompa song
you can invite him in Hego.. just put a bag over his head
I don't have a doorbell here
I come from the school of hard knocks :D
Bill would let anybody in. He's a softy.
Good one, Ru!
:D
I think the oompa loompa would drive me batty ori
For sure
It has that affect on the dogs
it makes me smile :-)
need a break. Later....
Oh my God, I would go insane if my doorbell played a song. That is as bad as ring tones.
my ringtone plays stairway to heaven :D
oh god
*going to dismantle the doorbell at my new house*
:D When are you moving in ru?
I take possession on the 22nd
so probably by april first
ty origami
so exciting to move to a new home
yw fan
yes.. I'm really happy with finally finding something I really like
congrats ruru
thanks mlf
yw:)
ha6?
A beehive or a pageboy is a ha6
The Farrah Fawcett cut? A pixie cut?
ty molly
Good morning, all!
a beehive is a hairdon't
Ha. Tell that to the bees.
Not if you live in Baltimore or are a B-52 : )
oops
love shack.. got to get back
♪♫bang, bang, bang, on the door baby ♪♫
I actually liked their songs
Knock a little louder, sugar!
since he won't have a doorbell, that's what folks will have to do at ru's place
*puts up no solicitors sign*
Don't blame you, Ru. We have one of those signs on our door.
I cannot get enough of that song
ruru we will let that slip by its kind of the word
down to 30, time to list and open chat.. hi Babblers
keep seeing airport and apricot
he6?
What is "kind of a word"? And when did "kind of a word" constitute a PB violation?
hi aloy
the word was in chat but added to
a beehive is a hairdon't
hi MLF . Extend he4 with a common preposition
<--cleverly avoided foul trouble
yeah right ruru lol
although would have enjoyed the martini bar :D
*lights candles at Bronco's shrine near tv* (setting mood)
ty aloy
Here Ru (aware of the HERE violation) you can have a martini anyway. And I will spare you the old, tired story about Antonio Benedetto Carpano.
the losing shrine ruru?
yw.. so many phantoms, airdrop included
No, not the losing shrine at all
no.. not losing .. winning with style
Denver's defense is going to take charge in this game
I'm glad it is going to be a battle of the two best quarterbacks though. Thank God Brady is out of the picture.
<---still savoring the warriors win
molly second that
This is going to be one very great super bowl today
weather here is perfect too 70 degrees
no rain.. (been pouring of late)
agreed ruru.. the only part I don't care about his the half time show
*lights three more candles to offset MLF's bad vibes*
oh coldplay.. ugh
ruru grrroooowwwwwlllll
:D
puts and on those candles
sand
?
oh
and water
I have my chips and guacamole all ready for the game :D
need to get something for dinner though
ruru I wanted hubby to buy 5 layer dip but didn't happen we do have sour cream and onion potato chips and regular potato chips with French onion dip:)
ruru order your pizza early:)
I can't do pizza.. too fattening
Hahahahaha! Like Ru would order pizza
(avoiding the conversation about chips and guacamole being fattening)
<planning on a salad actually :D
*Lays out Ru's skinny jeans
(pizza does sounds kinda good though)
oh.. ha
but ruru this is a "special" occasion for you to have pizza so you can watch the panthers win the super bowl
I did have to have all my dress slacks taken in lately molly :D
pizza and/or chips to me is a football thing
(wants whatever drugs MLF is on if she thinks the panthers are going to win)
congrats ruru
ruru I thought you were on drugs?
I lost 15 pounds but kind of stopped there for a while
I should be on drugs mlf.. I should be
a horse and a panther you figure it out lol
15 pounds congrats
I think it is going to be a very, very close game.
ruru that is one thing I think we can be certain of
Store bought 7-layer dip is gross. I make my own.
i mean the first super bowl the panthers played in they only lost by a field goal
the only seven layer dip I know is the republican candidates
i love it Moll i am not much on those beans and with the store bought version i don't taste it that much
*Arranges for a platter of celery and carrot sticks with a jug of lemon water to be delivered to Ru
ewww
Sorry, SlimRu
coconut water molly
:D
ruru do you drink coconut milk too?
no.. just kidding
my SIL does though
i have never had either but i don't like coconut anyway
I can take or leave coconut.. not my fave either
I mistakenly bought chocolate coconut/almond milk today. Hubby doesn't want it.
soy milk judi?
bet that would be good in a smoothie judi
I don't have the budget for almond milk at 4 bucks a gallon. Nor do I feel the need to drink it.
chocolate and coconut yuck
or with a little coffee liquor ;)
Yeah. I'm trying to figure out what to do with it. I'll probably just take it in to work for the crew to drink.
no mounds bars for mlf?!
or almond joy?!
lol nope blah you can keep them
I can't touch almond milk
Allergic?
haven't had either in ages, lean towards plain dark choco these days if i indulge
yep
what about cashew milk?
nope
soy I can do.. I like the vanilla soy
A coconut is a tree nut too. So, no go there.
ruru what brand?
Soy anything grosses me out. If I couldn't drink regular milk I would just give up milk and take calcium supplements.
I hate soy anything too. Gag!
um.. let me look
fw.. hope your fave team wins tonight.. mine won't.. but one of these days, I can root for the Browns, lol... have fun, everyone.. poof
who drinks that much milk anymore? I use a splish in my coffee and that's it
<---doesn't mind soy
I'm with molly and judi on soy
it's called SIlk Mlf
Judi and I would be unhappy campers at the health food, tofu and kale dip party.
I have cereal from time to time.. can't drink milk
mmm tofu burgers ;)
ruru yes i love Silk
tofu (UGH)
I'd rather eat sheetrock
i tried soy milk(silk) on cereal once it was delicious but the flakes soaked it up
I
I
(cracks up at the thought of molly eating kale)
lol actually tofu doesn't do anything for me one way or another. I really don't care for 'fake' meat like soyrizo
I'm sure I will become a fan of tofu as soon as I become a fan of tasteless, white blobs included in food
hands ruru some sheetrock..salt and pepper or catsup and mustard on that for you?
I don't like the texture of tofu
little mustard please
i find that tofu takes on the flavors of whatever it is cooked with - not much flavor on its own
too slimy
i had it once but i didn't know what it was supposed to taste like
hands ruru the mustard
it's disgusting
Tofu is nothing but a cruel joke.
tofu that is
blah i thought that was the point?
really not much mlf
Tofu is the Abba of bad foods
Exactly. That is what everyone says about tofu. That it takes on flavor. I'm wondering why add it in the first place.
what do you mean ruru?
molly supposedly a health thing
Abba is like Tofu.. bland, tasteless, and boring
because if you are trying to eat less meat, or are vegan, it is a good protein to use
and annoying
:D
Plenty of other ways to get protein besides tofu.
kale?lol
The protein content in tofu looks good on paper. The only problem is, it tastes like wet paper.
(nods head with judi)
blah that's the benefit i guess
Black beans or kidney beans are a much more interesting way to get protein.
I'm on board with tofu bashing, but love kale. have a huge crop growing now.
judi its like angel food cake tasty air but tofu is solid and no taste
I like kale too.. eat it fairly often
And quinoa and other so-called ancient grains...
origami sour isn't it?
i love sauteed
quinoa I'm not big on
Kale = blech. Goat food.
blah eewww my husband and i tried quiona in a box gross
LOL
not a kale fan either
i love sauteed kale with garlic and a squeeze of lemon. of course bacon never hurts either
blah do you ever watch Chopped?
ok big burgers for all! :D
I sauté shallots and a little garlic and use dark Balsalmic vinegar with some salt and pepper
I love kale cooked with bacon. but then again I love collards and chard too.
collards and chard not my thing either
I don't like Dinosaur Kale though
yes mlf, have probably seen every episode sadly enough ;)
I like Collard Greens
had collards for breakfast :D
blah tonight they have to use bacon
Love collards. (with bacon, of course).
I think I'll make hamburgers today :D
blah love the show but have missed some episodes
trader joe's sells a mix of 5 'power'greens which is delicious sauteed or in a salad
panther burgers
oh i like the bacon episode.
ruru bronco burger
blah does it have iceburg in it?
blah you better watch it tonight much better tv then the super bowl:)
no, more like kale, brussels, spinach etc all shredded and mixed
anything will be better tv than the superbowl lol
morning, folks
blah interesting combination
hiya jess
i'll see all the interesting parts on the news tomorrow lol, saves time
not much on on Sunday's anyway
I don't like sautéed spinach
blah no kiddng
hi jes
It is an ordeal to watch the superbowl.. so many commercials and drawn out
14 left. Gotta go get some chores done! *POOF*
bye, Judi
I better shower and go shopping
so... what's the 9?
re9
re 9/60
thanks
now what to have for lunch...pizza, a burger, or some leftover wild boar gnocchi? :)
hmmmmmmmmmm
for the re, not for showering. I can't smell your BO yet :)
blah yes
no bo.. just need to freshen up some
hi hurshy
is re9 weird or normal?
no.. not weird
pretty normal
hi
normal, hursh
aha yay thanks i got it!
Normal - found on fabric fire re9
nothing is weird around here :D
... well.. almost nothing
ruru norm al..what or who is htat\
that
did you know that most furniture fabrics with fire re9 on them actually burn FASTER? the requirement to have them is just supported by the lobby of the companies that make the chemicals used.
hi jaxx
Hi, mlf
really hurshy? is that there or in the US?
i'm in the US, i'm only a wannabe brit. it's in the US.
that is very interesting
you sound like spock.
Have you gotthe ears,mlf
i do don't i?:)
horrifying is more the word i would have used
no thankfully
yes scary that's for sure
#votebernie
these P words are so tough
everything else i just need one or two of, but P i need SIX
hurshy you are ahead of me i only have 12
i mean 10 sorry
I have 15 brag, brag
jaxx pffttt
Now, now mlf. lol
lol jaxx:)
pu6/30 clue please?
Arab women are subject to pu
uhmmm
pu + consonant + scottish pa
yay
may we discuss the 7's? i have ai7, he7, id7, and ra7
we may :)
so does anyone have the other one? and if anyone wants clues for mine let me know
do7/40
ah thanks
got it!
thank you, blah; thank you, monkeys
yw!
hurshy can we also discuss the 4s 5s and 6s too?
um, that would take a lot longer
especially the ones i am missing?
that just sounds like tempting chaos, mlf :D
jes why not have a little fun?lol
controlled chaos though right?
I didn't say chaos was bad
me either
oxymoron mlf?!
it is?
jes that cat is so beautiful i hope it finds a home soon or you can keep it:)
isn't chaos a complete lack of control?
blah that is what i thought too
ah, man, I need to update that. Whiskers and Dainty both got adopted, to the same person :)
I have 63 left. Going to get evening meal. bbl
ohh that is so cool
i have 66 left
Now I've got a black cat named Max that went missing for 9 days and came back with a chronic, infected, open fracture so we amputated his hind leg.
oh poor Max! Is he getting along ok?
that is so sad
Yep, he's all healed up and needs a home :)
yay Max! :)
how old is he?
And shockingly had 3 different people ask about the blind dog with a crippled front leg... so he got adopted faster than practically any other critter I've had.
Max is 4
what is up with that jes??
still young that's good
forget sex, sob stories sell, I guess?
Hi All. any clues for do 7?
Well, I tried to update to a picture of Max but not sure it worked - looks right in the little one, but when I open the profile it still has Whiskers
hi hego - short for MD + vowel + facial spasm
ty :)
new to me.
yw...was to me too
Not up on my blasphemy.
interesting to have do7 and he7 in the same grid.
good point owl
true. Hi TO
hi hego. must go get ready for superbowl party, i have to buy or make something.
Do you know what?
i can never decide. i have a dip that is easy, but must be popped into the oven to melt the cheese topping. that may not fit the host's plan, so i am hesitating. also thinking churro cheesecake bars
have never made either, but have tasted the dip.
i hate making those decisions.
Can't imagine churro cheesecake bars, but they sound great.
first time at this place. from what i read, there will be so much food, and i would guess that folks will eat the heavy stuff first.
hego, they are made with crescent roll crust, cream cheese, sugar egg and cinnamon
i think some melted butter as well
YUM!
http://tinyurl.com/jj3459q
mmmmmm...they look yummy! maybe a trip to the store in a little while :)
if i do, i need to get moving. i would actually like to bring tabbouleh, so there is a salad/relish, but i wonder how many people would try it
Hi Welki
target had philly brand on sale 2/$3
or it is a chili dip with cream cheese.
There you go!
the dip needs to be warmed to have the cheese melt.
the cheese topping, i mean, which is shredded taco blend.
dips always go
they are having meatballs and pulled pork pizza and a large hoagie
yum those all sound good owl
Dessert sounds like a good idea.
yesterday i sampled a crowd sized crab pretzel at wegmans' they had lobster ones as well. it was good but very salty.
i wish wegman's would come to canada - specifically, to a location near my home
Great store.
how about a gussied up cole slaw? something light and tangy to go with all that heavy food?
so, what do you all think the crust would be like, using crescent rolls?
Welki, I was very interested in the tobaggan accident story. It wasn't carried on the news here.
i want to find a good slaw recipe, with pineapple, but time has run out for this one. i think the tabbouleh might not go over.
But I read it on line.
ooh yes, that was awful. dumbass teenage boys.
i saw it briefly on the news hego or maybe the today show...sad
horrific really.
hi all. i need clues for the N in bottom corner please.
turns out the two that died were twins, 17 years old, honor students - what a waste
mkg, one is spanish for nothing
(and i think the crescent rolls will make for a light and flaky pastry - i looked them up, haven't found a bad review yet)
so sad.
what a tragedy
you looked up a review of the recipe? i did not see any
na5/12 female swimmer
i just searched for the recipe and didn't find anyone who said, "Blech! They stink!"
na 5/10 na + anagram of what we breathe
mostly 5 star ratings from the cooking sites
lol i read reviews in case there is a misprint or some other quirk needing adjustment
did you use the link i posted? sometimes they vary by reposter.
they sound almost like blintzes
the recipes seem to be the same, very simple - i just have to dig around for a 9X13 casserole
gah! visited another site and the directions vary!
they only thing that's bad is the price - here, two of the crescent roll packs and 2 bars of cream cheese alone will cost almost $15.00
i can buy a whole cheesecake for that :)
oh my! i am going to aldi for the rolls, don't you think they would be fine in a recipe?
do you have target?
sure, why not?
no, target lasted less than a year up here
i must run out, need either the crescents or shredded cheese to complete whatever. have fun. if they get made i will let you know how they fare.
ty all for the feedback and happy babbling.
enjoy the party, owl - doesn't matter what you bring, they'll eat it
Good luck!
laundry time here - later, babblers
bye
welk, i had a surprise birthday visit this week. some people are full of surprises!

:)
hi all
hiya jmc
hi jmc
when does the game start mlf. . . i haven't been paying attention
6:30 is when everything starts I guess but I don't know if that is actual kick off or not
Hello, depends on what time zone you are in
probably not. . . they have to do the introductions and the introductions of the introductions. . . and the introductions of the person tossing the coin. . .
it will be 3:30 in calif at that hour for us
hi phae. . . .
Hi
and redoing the coin toss and waiting until lady gaga gets off the field
etc
and that hour to start at 6:30pm for me that
is
i'm sure the players are all like 'can we just start this damn thing' lol
blah seriously I know I would be that way lol
i don't even care about the half time show none of them do much for me
yes it must be hard to be all pumped with adrenaline and and run out on the field to teh cheering crowd adn then have to stand around for 30 minutes for all the hooplah. . . .
jmc oh the suspense and drama lol
i have seen little pieces of some of the commercials that will be airing during the game another great part about it lol
maybe with the 8 hours of pregame shows they can get to the game
yeah i've seen a lot of the commercials already
the commericals have been a disappointment the last couple of years. . . are these better?
well it will still be early there blah lol
I heard Budweiser is cutting back on the Clydesdale stuff, darn it.
jmc i have loved some of them the past few years .. just depends on the brand
rbud i hope not!
yeah the bud commercial this year is helen mirren calling out drunk drivers
i loved the bud commercial with the puppy trying to get home
blah yes something to do with her and bud :)
oh i saw that in between my words for friends moves. . . .
oh, yes, I've seen that one on youtube already. I love all the Clydesdale ones, who wouldn't? seems a shame to "retire" them.
what an odd place to preview them. . . .
rbud it would be so sad
jmc i was thinking the same thing
the helen mirren advert has some good lines but kind of an odd venue to air it
i mean are they going to change anyone's mind in that moment
i suppose there are bud drinkers who pay word games....
according to google the Clydesdale's will be back
gosh, been at it over an hour and still have 5 bt's - all vowels. how can that be, lol!
anything's possible lol
hi rbud!
very odd place to air it
oh, good! I figured there'd be some sort of public outcry if the horses didn't keep happening.
hi origami. . . *waves at rbud*
howdy, origami! :)
the clydesdales were here in Dallas a couple of weeks ago...it was a big thing
rbud i just wonder if they will top the one commercial from a few years ago with the man and his Clydesdale
*waves back to jmc*
bud would be smart not to mess around with the horsies
hi again origami
agreed blah
coda
oops
pb jmc
already have it jmc but thanks
*looks for DC Brau in PB fridge*
had that one, at least give me vowel words, lol!
me too
sorry rbud. . . haha
hello again, finally reached 100 on my 3rd visit
does anyone have the co 6 words?
hi ruby
congrats ruby
when I lived in boston we went to NH to see the Clydesdales...they are massive horses
Hi Fan ... trying to fold some really hard butterflies and searching for words at the same time :D
i have 102 words now
hi, ruby! (((hugs))) How goes it these days?
((ruby))
origami what are the butterflies for?
<== 36 words
both are co6/21, what little girls have to little boys, and extend the co4/5
the mother of my fairy goddaughter is obsessed with butterflies
so are you decorating something origami?
ty, blah, had none of those (3) words yet.
blah great clue
I have a few buddleias in the garden to attract butterflies, but I can never identify them
They are very realistic butterflies ... I think I am going to put them in shadow boxes.
and the other one blah?
origami that is so clue
sorry which other one mlf?
cool
I love butterfly bush ruby ... I am going to plant some this spring. butterflies love my salvia plants.
i have the boy girl one but the other?
same first four, MLF, add to the co4
I started with one, but my husband, in burning some leaves, set it on fire and instead of dying, it spawned 7 babies
isn't their a place where butterflies just flock to yearly?
got it ty
I think it's monarchs in Mexico
in the forest of mexico . . .monarchs
ah!and of course butterfly bushes attract them which grow in the US am i right?
you betcha!
my niece and sister went one year. . .the trees were black until the butterflies began to fly and then there was orange and black clouds everywhere. . .
:)
jmc that is eerie
oooh
I hope that those of you who have chatted with/gotten to know UUSue will keep her in your good thoughts and prayers. I just read her profile and it sounds like her journey with Frank is coming to an end.
they said you could barely see the trees for the butterflies but that you didn't know that until they began to fly. . .
io6?
jmc wow
molly frank is the one who is sick?
they have both been so brave in dealing with Frank's disease
ah t ruby
im sorry to hear that molls. . . i got to meet them both on one of my trips. . .
I'm sad about what they are going through, but very glad that they got to rekindle their love story before all this happened.,

Happy Sunday, everyone --- I suppose a lot of our regulars are watching a bunch of grown men bash heads over a ball
howdy nan!
Dake
Drake
Not quite yet but maybe the umpteen hours of pre-game drivel
Dang!
darn already have it :)
yes --- between that and an unmentionable presidential hopeful there has been nothing worth watching on TV since Friday.
Food Network :D
what really bugs me is we're not even in the same country and we still get it on our own networks as well as yours
Well no, Nan. The Superbowl has not started yet. But thanks for your opinion of those of us who care to watch.
there is a campaign underfoot in a couple of our cities now to have T**** towers renamed because the populace does not want the name so prominently displayed.
Nan, there was a great article in the WaPo this morning about how most Canadians don't want Ted Cruz back
That was not an opinion of the the people who watch molly --- it was my opinion of the game
blah i was listening to it in the other room as hubby is watching it
I much prefer to watch a game that requires skill rather than brute strength
MLF, I mentioned Sue's profile in my original post, but glad you thought it wise to mention that again.
And it mentioned how much coverage you guys get of our politics but that most Americans can't name your current or former PM
oh i didn't even know i just thought i would look molly as i have not read the caringbridge page her profile is sad enough for me
I guess molly monitors the chat more carefully than the rest of us :D
it
Most Canadians think of Cruz being just a little to the right of Atilla the Hun and Trump a couple of leagues to the right of that
are most opposed to cruz. as long as he beats out Trump i don't care
oops
oops
lol cyber
lol nan...they are both just nasty
hi smd
i shudder to think of either of them being our face of the country to the world
agreed blah
it scares me to think that it could possibly be Trump
mind you, all 3 of our major parties are so close to centre that it's hard to tell them apart most of the time.
can we borrow some of yours? ;)
No, I really don't "monitor" the chat at all. But thanks for your kind comment, Blah.
can we get others to run again?
You are so welcome Molly lol
maybe draft Joe Biden?
Yeah, right.
I think Trump is terribly naive if he really thinks he could get any of the things he is proposing done. However, he is a loose canon and could to irrepairable damage to the reputation of the USA.
You don't like Joe? He might look pretty good right now
*could do
when Obama ran my other want for president was the previous mayor of nyc
I agree nan, he seems to think he would rule the world the way he rules his company - his way or no way
cyber he is a wack job
or maybe Bloomberg?
is that who you meant MLF?
my pipedream is that gen. colin powell will surprise us and enter the race
trump = wack job
need stats for the last 7 - have DO, HE, ID, RA
wow that would be interesting
welk wouldn't that be great
ai7/32
i think he's as steady as they come and would be a great stabilizer
giulini
or ross perot would be good too
powell is too close to the middle ... where have all the moderates gone?
all of a sudden a lot of others are looking better lol
rudy guiliani? he was a good mayor, not sure about presidential material
welki loved him
i was so disappointed he dropped out
oh, origami - do you have any of your art online? would love to see some
Welki, how did your dinner party go?
ross perot - uhm, don't think so. he's pretty old
origami must take at least one photo of the butterflies and post here please?:)
welk yes i know but would love it
Don't have any photos, but will take some in a few days and put in my profile welki
thank you origami
moderates don't make sensational press -- I think that is the true problem. Maybe if the press would stop giving Trump all the free coverage, things would improve - or any of them for that matter. How ridiculous is it that a presidential candidate would go on a late night talk show and make a fool of themselves. They are, or should not be, entertainment for *&!*@ sake
These butterflies are leaving me surrounded by crumpled paper! they are tough
hey soodle - well, it went sort of like this. we got dressed and ready to leave. i felt a little ill. thought it was just because i wasn't thrilled about going. we got there, did the meet and greets and then i did a face to face a couple of times with the porcelain throne - don't know what happened, but we were home by 7:30
i agree cyber why do they have president's and such on those shows its ridiculous
origami have you done them before?
any clues out there for the up/6?
(thanks, origami - will look for your photos)
welki how awful, hope you are feeling better now
welk did you feel better after you got home?
Oh my, Welki. Sorry you were poorly, but at least you got out of the horror-fest!

Now I get to have a bit over a week off of work...
owl who does everyone want to win this year at this gathering?
phan did you break anything ?
yqw ori
No, x-rays are negative.
i imagine both, fan. i really do not like football, just being social.
so why are you having a super bowl party and not just a get together?
not my party
owl ohhh
have not seen this gang for a while
well then Phan.. put your best foot forward :D
I know nothing about US football and UK football either
phan, i hope you are not in too much pain and heal quickly
well maybe it will be fun anyway?
ai7, please?
i am s sure it will be
Thanks. As long as I keep off of my foot, I am not hurting too much. Just hate that I can't do much of anything...
sprains can be deceptive...do not be tempted to walk on it

Crescent dough for cheesecake?
sorry did not get the ad5/14 clue. The answer seemed to be adjust but that doesn't work.
heresy! graham crackers and butter!! :-)
i need the last ra 4/5 please?
it's a synonym for adjust...
an *****ion of a movie from a book
ad5 is like when you assume someone else's child, but with a different middle vowel

I found the cheesecake bars with crescent dough recipe. Crescent dough is pretty easy to work with as long as you keep it cold up until you have to press it out. I'm not partial to Pillsbury dough though.

wow. it took me 3 times to figure out you weren't just for some reason saying your own name... i am a tad slow today.
long weekend?
yeah... had 2 calls that didn't come in, then 1 that did, and another that called while i was working on that one that came in. yesterday had 3 emergencies in a row, and was interviewing a prospective associate at the same time.
well no wonder you're all kerfuffled - exhausted, stressed and it's time for wine (or whatever you drink)
Wow jes ...you need a break
i'll take one... as soon as i hire and train at least one and preferably 2 new associates. hah.
*picks up origami, heads north to pick jes up for a break*
I'll bring wine and chili
no drinking, still on call. well, no drinking alcohol. i had coffee this morning and a triple mocha this afternoon.
OK, just chili
by the time we get there, she'll be ready for that wine. i'll bring a bottle of fireball, just to get things started.
Is your work animal rescue jes
jes is a vet with angel wings
that's actually more a (really expensive) hobby on the side. the actual career is veterinarian
I have thought about doing fostering and transporting when I retire. Particularly fostering older dogs.
origami, have you 'met' Uneaxoise? she's involved in transport, down south in nashville
Yes, I have. She is the one who inspired me to consider transport.
<--- folding angel wings for jes
can you give them back up after you have them for a month or two? (most fosters end up adopting something eventually and stop fostering, which does not in any way mean you shouldn't do it! even if you adopt the first foster you have, you helped!)
I will be a sucker for sure. But I think I can keep the adoption to a minimum ... believe in sharing the wealth :-)
All 3 of my dogs and my cat are "used." I am a sucker.
I'm a big fan of rescue adoption (you might have guessed)
firewords!
My black-and-tan coonhound was in rescue. She was 1.5 yrs old and had never been allowed inside the house until she was "surrendered" and then rescued. What is wrong with people?
wtg jes
congrats jes!
you know what's wrong with them :(
Oh, well, that's a long list, ori
Indeed
What welki?
I had a Plott hound for a long time that I got from the humane society I was working at. She was surrendered because she kept getting out of her kennel... well no shit, she's a 9 month old HOUND and she's in an 8x10 run with no top, and you never take her out? she's bored out of her mind.
what's wrong with people? they don't think before they take in animals. they don't do breed research. they think animals are disposable. they're selfish and don't consider what's best for the animals they take into their houses. they can't afford the responsibility, in any fashion ... goes on and on and on
haha - that said, i'd better change my icon
I LOVE hounds. I also have a fox hound. Hounds are worth the price of admission -- which is admittedly steep. They can be a bit stubborn and when they "get their nose on" there is no stopping them. but they are so funny and goofy and loving.
I love your icon welki! It is absolutely true.
so, you don't think it's reasonable to go buy a whole flock of goats and then after you've got them home, call and ask the veterinary clinic "how much will it cost to get them tested"... without even knowing what for you want them tested? :D
I can't imagine the crap you deal with Jes.
sounds as reasonable as the woman i spoke with who didn't know why her intact male kept "making babies" with his siblings
... or the woman who was totally "taken off guard" when her new rescue dog almost ate the face off a kid when the child tried to take a bone away from the dog
OMG
every friggin' day i hear crap like that and it makes me sick. i feel so bad for the poor animals who get caught in the middle of this kind of stupidity
pass the wine, origami :)
coming up welki ... I think I need a second glass
and a sparkling cider for jes
ahahahaha. oh, how many times I have to wonder how the people who say things like "they wouldn't do that, he's her FATHER" managed to survive to adulthood and raise their own children.
on call beverages for jes :D
For the love of all that is holy! The older I get, the less faith I have in humans. Should be a bumper sticker.
*zips lips*
Who would want to live with an unaltered male dog anyway? My mother bred Dobermans and the males were a handful.
I dunno. I've met a few really well mannered and well trained intact dogs. Stallions too, for that matter. But the majority of them seem to belong to people who don't do either routine care or routine training...
and the ignorance regarding breeding is just amazing
ah, when I was growing up we had horses. My favorite was a stallion. He was a lot of fun. But required firmer and more thoughtful handling.
we had one client who was just... just wow. She called about a horse that looked skinny but had a big belly, and told me that her 'cervix was sticking out'. (pretty sure she didn't know the difference between cervix and vulva.) Oh, and her 'tits are bigger'. I asked if she'd been in with a stallion, and she said "not for a long time" I asked if "a long time" meant 11 months ago, because it sounds like your horse is getting ready to foal. She said well, yeah, about a year ago... but she can't be pregnant! I had to explain to her that gestation in a horse is 11-13 months. Sent a doctor out to confirm, and mare foaled that weekend.
pathetic
shortly after that, the same woman brought in a cat that'd been crying and biting herself on the sides for over 24 hours, and was by presentation so weak she wasn't even trying to stand. Huge distended belly, obvious contractions during exam. Woman once again insisted that there was NO WAY the cat could be pregnant because she was an indoor cat. I asked if there was never any time about 6-8 weeks ago that she got out or another cat got in, and she says oh, well, there was that one time... but still wouldn't believe me until we took radiographs and showed her the kitten skeletons.
How can you own horses and not know that? And not know when a horse is pregnant? It is pretty obvious.
Cat's been in hard labor with a malpositioned kitten for over a day, and the woman wouldn't even consider that she might be pregnant.
This woman had THREE EFFING CHILDREN.
but had no concept of preventing or recognizing pregnancy or labor
Oh dear. Maybe her pregnancies were a surprise to her. Are people getting stupider?
i don't even know. it was very frustrating dealing with her. and then, of course, she stiffed us on the bill and hasn't been back.
Of course.
Although, I wonder about what my vet thinks about me. My deceased son's friend lives with me and one time my foxhound got into his pot and ate it. when I came home I didn't know this and he looked like he was having some sort of neurological problem and I took him to the vet, of course. They probably thought I was a horrible person.
nah. mostly when i get a marijuana dog, i just need to know that's what they got into, so i can tell you he'll be fine. because if it's NOT that, it could be something really bad.
also, it's good to know what the pot was in, because if he ate 5 pounds of pot butter, we're going to have some diarrhea to deal with tomorrow.
I mean, i'm sure there are people out there who are a lot more judgmental about pot than I am, but that's so far down the list of things that're going to cause permanent damage to the dog that I just can't even make myself care.
He must have recognized the signs and tested him. He told me it is a pretty common occurrence. Scared the crap out of me though.
sounds like a good attitude to me
the signs are pretty distinct, and pot's legal in this state, but there are still a lot of people who will try to deny that's what happened.
i know it's serious, but i can't help but imagine they look spaced out and want snacks
my son's friend got a stern talking to about keeping his stash secure!
anyway, thanks for the good conversation - g'night, gals
It didn't look like a good high. He was pissing himself and running into walls.
heh. kind of. mostly they get super sleepy, uncoordinated, pee on themselves, and then pass out.
sleep until it wears off, then wake up and are fine.
good night welki
couple of years and that'll be me :)
I do that all the time :D
hah. well, they make diapers for that...
I'm heading out too. Have a good evening folks.
sleep well
hey all
well, I got 100+, so heading out. Hope the week ahead will bring good things to all. *poof*
hi all
