hello mum!! hows you? xx

12:44 am

doing well thanx luv. and you and the lovely Di?

12:44 am

we are both good thanks I've been busy working but other than that nothing exciting going on here lol xx

12:46 am

we went to queensland for a few weeks. drove there and back. it was so nice.

12:46 am

and this week i went into the hospital for my infusion therapy. my doc said he had never seen me look so exhausted.

12:47 am

I'm not surprised you're exhausted driving all that distance! You make sure you rest up and recuperate xx

12:47 am

now i'm jumping out of my skin, much to dad's delight

12:48 am

Sounds a bit like a madhouse down there lol

12:51 am

how is the job? are you still liking it?

12:53 am

Depends on your variations of the word like lol. I like working. As for the job itself it is one of those swings and roundabouts things. One week it's busy then next it's dead but I do like meeting and greeting the public. For somebody that's very shy in real life I seem to cope quite well. And for every unpleasant person I encounter there are 25 really friendly people, so it weighs in my favour really xx

12:56 am

that sounds good mate. i pleased to hear that. you've been there for a while now.

12:58 am

Yes 7 months. I'm actually their longest serving street marketer now. I've seen about 10 people come and go at the 3 different branches since I've been there. It's one of those jobs that nobody wants to do - not even the migrants want to do it, and they're damned hard workers, so that says a lot about the job!

1:00 am

good for you sticking it out. well done!!

1:01 am

It's been good for me financially too. I'm not a spender, I save as much as I can and for Di's big birthday this year I bought her a gold and diamond eternity ring, something I've always wanted to do for her and, just like her, it's beautiful

1:04 am

oh wow!!! i bet she was thrilled.

1:08 am

She was. I gave it to her before her birthday too. Had it specially made too. I was thrilled as well, and to see her little face light up like that, well, it filled me with such a feeling

1:09 am

awww that is so sweet. you will have to email me a pic or two.

1:09 am

ooo that's a good idea. I'll do that over the weekend and send to you x

1:10 am

honey, i need to get going. xoxox to you both. that would be absolutely terrific worzel. {{hugs}}

1:11 am

ok mum i have to go get ready for work now too so I'll take those pics and send and speak very soon xx take care xx say hi to dad for me xx

3:40 am

Hi Hurshy. Another babbler was asking how your cat is doing. Hope all is well.

3:52 am

You're not still there Hursh!

3:53 am

Hello everyone

3:54 am

Hello, Lynxxx :-)

3:55 am

hi Zooz - it won't take poxy!

3:55 am

No I know I did try lol

3:56 am

poxy enable : D

3:57 am

HI

3:57 am

weirdly if you use the Dictionary it shows

3:57 am

Hi Hursh - what's happening with puss

4:00 am

she seems to have lymphoma, had 2 blood transfusions and a dose of chemo, and she peed on the rug, which could be side effect, UTI, or worsening anemia. supposed to fly home cross-country in 14 hours, don't know how i will even know if i can safely do that with her or not. the emergency vet she's been treated at said if otherwise ok, can wait and see, at least til morning, then bring her in for check. have never ever been so stressed.

4:01 am

oh dear - you must be in a state

4:01 am

((Hurshy))

4:01 am

yes

4:02 am

is work an issue for you?

4:03 am

it would be eventually but i have a week of wiggle room, the more headache is i didn't bring extra of my own meds and would have to somehow get some

4:04 am

plus my husband HAS to fly home, with other cat, who also sort of needs my attention.

4:05 am

Your doctor can't fax/send a scrip to a chemist there?

4:05 am

i guess they can but it's just one more thing i have to deal with you know?

4:07 am

I do. Bet you thought how nice it would be to have a short visit with your parents - and all this happens!

4:08 am

i am not... i am not grown up enough to handle this!!!!

4:09 am

lol ! I still feel that sometimes and nearing 70!

4:09 am

yeah

4:09 am

i'm just sitting here sobbing and sobbing

4:10 am

you are a your parents? surely not at the vets

4:10 am

at my parents' house yeah

4:14 am

It's just because there is nothing YOU can do to 'fix' things - frustration and of course grief over a dearly loved creature who is suffering

4:15 am

exactly

4:16 am

whoohoo - the 7 just jumped out at me (is it because husband is out in the kitchen whipping up something for dinner and smells good).

4:17 am

i think her belly is distended

4:17 am

i think i need to take her in now

4:17 am

ttfn

4:17 am

best wishes

4:18 am

Thinking of you and your cat ((Hurshy))

4:18 am

What you having tonight then, Lynxxx?

4:20 am

something out of the freezer but its smelling very nice - a stew or soup I am guessing. Ken cooks up a storm occasionally and lots go into the freezer. It'll be great because I didn't have to do anything!

4:21 am

and it b. freezing at nights here so stew/soup is great

4:22 am

I like stews and soups especially on a cold night. Sounds like you are in for a treat then, Lynxxx. And it always tastes better when someone else makes it :-)

4:29 am

BBL bye Zooz

4:36 am

Take care, Lynxx. Enjoy your meal.

news - they are giving her a quick check - nurse that showed me to my room said, "nobody's rushing around back there" (as they would if she were in real bad shape), and she was super nice and said she took care of her last night and loved her and everyone loves her here, she's a "celebrity"

thanks

5:12 am

she said "don't worry, we'll get you to your flight" and i said, "well, i'd rather move my flight than take chances and be on it wondering the whole time if she is about to crash". so i am glad she seemed to think it was possible, but also glad i've let them know that if it is not a good idea, that is my attitude, and i will move my flight.

5:13 am

rbud, it was fast, luckily my parents only live 20 mins away from the emergency vet. i am trying to count my blessings.

5:13 am

hope things work out okay. at least you're not alone sorting it out now.

5:22 am

american I think - we don't have them here either

5:23 am

do they not eat chicken po6 in britain? well i mean, not call it that. this is important for me to know for my british wannabe-ing.

5:23 am

it's like stew but with a crust. usually pastry pie crust, but sometimes biscuit topping.

5:23 am

would just be called a pie

5:24 am

like steak and kidney pie - yummo

5:24 am

hmm i wonder when and why we added the first half of the word

5:25 am

maybe it is how they are cooked - in a pot instead of a pie dish/plate?

5:27 am

no they are most often cooked in a pie plate

sorry need a clue for gu6, got all the others?

5:28 am

i've seen them cooked in a dormitory kitchen, with a biscuit topping, in a large rectangular tray, but that's, you know, for serving tons of people

5:29 am

gu6 = not a girl but a *** + when it's tied at the end of the regulation periods, they go into ** + plural

but*

6:11 am

A little bird just walked into the house

6:12 am

maybe it means good luck

6:13 am

hello

6:13 am

Ah, I think it is because the bird knows that Ruby is a "bird familiar" aka "friend of the birds"

6:13 am

Good morning Annie. Are you melting?

6:14 am

It's not the heat, it's the humidity

6:14 am

and I coaxed himback out

6:14 am

Good morning, Molly. I've melted. Someone take my ruby red slippers.

6:14 am

hello Mooly, Annie and Bichon

6:14 am

or even Molly*

6:15 am

It felt like 104 yesterday

6:15 am

((ruby)) how are you feeling?

6:15 am

Here it's around 50F in the morning. I wish I had the energy to go outside

6:16 am

I spent 15 mins weeding the fish pond

6:16 am

Are you feeling poorly ruby?

6:17 am

I'm all bitten up by the usual August "no see-ums", aoutats

6:17 am

No, I'm feeling much better as the pain is Under control. Thanks for asking

6:18 am

I just lack energy

6:18 am

we were once fishing in Everglade City and we were bitten up by the "no see ums"

6:19 am

Im glad the pain is under control, ruby

6:19 am

It's Lucky I never had chicken pox because I would have been one huge pock mark

6:19 am

Good morning, everybody.

6:19 am

I was bitten by a black fly in New Hampshire. Pain

6:19 am

The bird went out one door and came back in another!

6:19 am

((crossy))

6:19 am

Good morning, peeps!

6:20 am

6:21 am

Thank you, Annie

6:21 am

yw

6:23 am

The sparrow walked out again

6:24 am

We have a screen door.

6:24 am

How are you doing, crossy?

6:25 am

No scrren here, too many French doors: 4 plus the front door on the middle story

6:26 am

I am doing fine, Ruby.

6:26 am

Upstairs, just one to th balcony.

6:26 am

Definitely not an American house

6:26 am

I see you have a pet sparrow today :)

6:26 am

I've been thinking of you, Crossy, I'm not so good at prayers, only pray for the dogs

6:26 am

Screens are a must here. The mosquitos would pick you up and carry you off otherwise.

6:27 am

Definitely not!

6:27 am

ruby LOL

6:27 am

For me, a dogs prayer would also be suitable ;)

6:28 am

Some French people hang strands of bead in the open doorways or, worse, strips of ^plastic.

6:28 am

Do you ay Jewish prayers?

6:28 am

beads* a little too gy$syish for me

6:29 am

"May your nose be forever cold and your food dish forever full."

6:29 am

I only know the prayer for the dead

6:29 am

Kaddish

6:29 am

no, cross, Rufie's been poorly, and I've been bargining with God

6:29 am

and I only know the prayer for the start of a meal

6:30 am

and for Hannukah

6:30 am

I will say a doggie prayer for Rufie as well.

6:30 am

what is ailing Rufie?

6:31 am

He has hot spotss again and won't keep a bandage on and yesterday he went to sleep in a closet and I thought he was dead!

6:31 am

The closet bit would scare me too.

6:31 am

It was the same place where my beloved Ruby died, but she was 10 and he's only 4

6:32 am

yes, but dogs are denning animals

6:32 am

When your helper comes, take Rufie to the vet or have you already been?

6:33 am

We couldn' get the timing right, but I spoke to the vet and she's dropping off a prescription for steroids

6:34 am

Good. Hope Rufie gets relief and you too.

6:34 am

This is not the first time he's had this problem and it's probably my fault because his diet is too rich

6:34 am

aha, French food.

6:34 am

what does he eat that's so rich. I only give Marco kibble

6:35 am

Nowif I can get someone to go to the pharmacy because I'm too Dizzy to drive today

6:35 am

going to start the coffeemaker. bbs

6:37 am

The two dogs have boiled chicken breast, gizzard and veal sausage for dinner, kibble on demand, and an omelet for breakfast. You could call me a crazy old dog lady!

6:37 am

Wow!! dogs eat better than i do! lol

6:37 am

Raffie does fine and they both have magnificent coats

6:38 am

Cleearly, I'm wrong about the diet

6:40 am

I am not a profession on doggies diets. perhaps you vet will offer some good ideas on puppy's food requirements

6:41 am

professional*

6:41 am

she always tells me but I haven't the heart to take away their meat

6:42 am

For example, when no one is looking, I feed my favorite cat Peek Frean shortbread cookies now and then.

6:42 am

so you understnad!

6:43 am

Of course. :)

6:43 am

done. have a great day/evening babblers

shame on Enable: poxy is a grand old adjective

1:31 pm

Ew, I just looked up the definition for poxy. "Having or having had syphilis".

1:43 pm

classical lit - usually defines "whore"

1:52 pm

does that make epoxy a computer whore?

1:58 pm

... just askin'...

2:03 pm

I often miss the UK words or word references.

2:08 pm

It is kind of fun to read their different words

2:11 pm

I'm listening to a book on CD in the car that is set in the UK an narrated by British women. It took me a minute to figure out what "she nipped out to the offie" meant.

2:11 pm

Translation: She went to the off price liquor store.

2:11 pm

Oh

2:12 pm

Or off license or something like that.

2:12 pm

That is exactly what I mean. Really interesting to read different sayings

2:14 pm

This story also keeps referring to someone as being "pissed" which means drunk in UK-ese. Here it means mad. It gets confusing listening to this story sometimes.

2:17 pm

So if you are pissy in England you are a little loaded?

2:18 pm

I guess.

2:19 pm

Cool

2:20 pm

hello everyone

2:21 pm

Hi nan

2:25 pm

phui --- there is nothing wrong with phui!

2:32 pm

2:32 pm

2:32 pm

gu5 is another word for male & an abbrev. for working after your shift ends

2:33 pm

also means seamount I guess

2:33 pm

??? whatever is that?

2:34 pm

underwater mountain or plateau in the ocean

2:34 pm

or sex in a swimming pool :D

2:34 pm

2:37 pm

2:37 pm

2:38 pm

I should head out soon too.. so much to do today.

2:41 pm

I'm sitting here & resting for a bit; the grandson & I have had a busy morning outside already. (pokey man GO says we have to go 10 km to hatch eggs I guess?)

2:43 pm

i have been cleaning house and taking breaks

2:45 pm

You can come clean mine on your next break if you're ambitious! ;-)

2:55 pm

i have a house cleaner coming Monday.. so i have to make it presentable :D

2:56 pm

LOL! So many people I know say the same thing! "Clean the house before the cleaner comes!" If I had a cleaning person; I'd be doing the same thing I guess.

2:57 pm

I always make the kids pick up the floor before the cleaning ppl come.

2:59 pm

Does it matter how often the cleaning person comes? If it's once a month, I could see that. If it's more often than that does it get messier in between faster?

2:59 pm

any help with the Y please?

2:59 pm

it's not like I'm a total slob ya know

2:59 pm

they come every 2 weeks.

3:00 pm

3:00 pm

3:00 pm

true, that would be a waste of time & money, wouldn't it HH?

3:01 pm

have a good day everyone

3:01 pm

yes - and the previous cleaners used to get all in a tizzy about it

3:01 pm

we fired them because the cat hated one of them and apparently (so they say) tried to scratch her

3:01 pm

Bye, ruru! HAGD!

3:01 pm

by ru. good night

3:02 pm

Did they try vacuuming her, HH?

3:02 pm

6:07 pm

6:09 pm

I went pro after I got them 3 times. There are a lot of advantages to going pro and it is only a onetime cost.
