{{hugs}} and good morning dearest sprite. can i sleep at your house tonight.....pleeeeese ?

2:33 am

*hugs rose* Sweetie, always. I will boot Rob from his and make up the bed with fresh linen. Whazzup, darling?

2:34 am

i'll sleep on the couch, i'll even sleep in the cupboard under the sink.

2:34 am

oh, that one is always free, lol. Tell me.

2:35 am

oh dear where do i begin? don has been fiddling with a new programme for his phone. it has culminated with him pulling the wretched thing apart.

2:35 am

lollllll omg, men and their toys... and now his mood is beastly?

2:36 am

he has damaged some piece of glass and thrown it out in disgust. he is now pleading with firefox to please open AND respond.

2:36 am

*giggles* Nothing you can do about it, my poor darling. Just keep breathing. And mutter 'there, there' every now and then. A cup of tea/coffee or a glass of wine might work too.

2:37 am

*rolling eyes* why can't they just be satisfied with what they have and leave things alone.

2:37 am

what? poured over his head?

2:37 am

or was the wine for me?

2:39 am

I hear ya! And if it doesn't work, just keep their temper and not blow up like a spoilt kid, lol. I mean... I was up at 3 tonight. And this morning my teeny tiny silicone lens for the smartphone fell on the floor and has been absolutely unfindable ever since. And I looked. Trust me, I looked. And then I found a note from Tim explaining why he had not done the kitchen yet... but am I in a rotten mood? Nah.

2:39 am

or i could pour a cup of tea in his left ear, a cup of coffee in his right ear, then give his head a good shake.

2:39 am

definitely wine for you. Or bourbon. This might be a bourbon day.

2:40 am

ugh on the kitchen and was his excuse plausible?

2:41 am

yeah it was. His girlfriend had an emotional crisis and he spent some hours sitting with her and comforting her. So... I just did the kitchen for him, for 85%. Reward for being a decent person and for communicating well.

2:41 am

how annoying re lens !!

2:42 am

yeah it is a miracle. The wrong kind, lol. I mean, it fell down. How far can it go, right? Should be within the room at the very least. But nooooo. It has disappeared mid-air, I guess. Off to the planet where the lost ballpoints and single socks live.

2:42 am

can you have the lens replaced? well, he is indeed learning...

2:43 am

yeah I can, but such a waste of money :(

2:43 am

*gigles* have you checked your big toe? it might be stuck there.

2:44 am

honey, my big toe, all the other toes, my decolleté, all the folds of my nightgown, soles of my feet, and every inch of the floor... swept the floor with my bare hands.

2:45 am

oh, on top of everything don is fiddling with, i have had to remind him that there is shopping to be done. he has known this since breakfast time, and it is now peak traffic flow heading home.

2:46 am

you know you are going to find it in the last place you look don't you?

2:46 am

*grins* you are making him go alone, right? Shopping list in hand, and you will not answer the phone until he is back home. He can rage in the car on his way home then.

2:46 am

Just popping in to say hello ladies but need to go as there is a bank holiday boot sale on and I am being given a lift. Sprite if you put a pair os leg stockings over the vacuum head it will pick up bits but not go up the vacuum..you might be able to find your lens that way. Bye for now..and good luck *poof*

2:47 am

what was that blur?

2:47 am

good tip! *hugs zooz* Have a great day, dear man.

2:47 am

zoofzoof it was zoozzoom the zoomzoom

2:48 am

SUPER ZOOZZOOM!!! higher than a leaping building, faster than a locomotive...

2:48 am

is it a bird? Is it a plane?

2:49 am

maybe it is a mix.... lolll

2:49 am

hope someone tells him he has his jocks on the outside....

2:50 am

he will be starting a new fad

2:50 am

tsk what a waste of a perfectly good Q

2:50 am

omg... don is saying he has to throw his phone into the bin. please, please hide me.

2:51 am

just let him, honey. You can even open the bin for him

2:51 am

giggling very quietly so he doesn't hear.

2:51 am

;)

2:52 am

i'll open the door too, and then lock it behind him. for heavens sake !!

2:53 am

you know Don and his temper. In a few hours he will have cooled down and be awkwardly sorry-ish.

2:54 am

yeah i know. now he is muttering about the internet which i might add is working fine for me. and he has icons missing and in their place icons he has never seen.

2:55 am

want to see him go ballistic? Just whisper "malware" close to his ear.

2:56 am

hang on..... i'll find a long piece of plastic tubing, then i'll do that.

2:56 am

lollll

2:57 am

I do understand his frustration. Just wish he could handle it a little bit more mature, grin.

2:59 am

ah well. it has been quite entertaining, AND i have maintained inner calm[sort of].

2:59 am

oh my I found a 9

2:59 am

so what's on your agenda for today?

3:00 am

good for you, honey.

3:00 am

whoot whoot!! yayay sprite

3:01 am

mwah, don't know yet. I am so so tired from all the broken nights. I might take a long nap this afternoon. For the rest... some cleaning, walking terra, laundry as always, maybe fitness if I can find the motivation.

3:01 am

and you will be so proud of me. i have made appointment with ortho doc re hips which the MRI shows that at least one of the tendons is non-existent. also organised appointment for card readout from CPAP ready for respiratory doc in 6 weeks.

3:02 am

wow rose, good job!

3:03 am

3:07 am

3:16 am

lolol good man, Don! Enjoy the drive. And the traffic.

3:21 am

I found the fish!

3:23 am

right he has finally actually left. he says his brain hurts and that he has killed his phone... lolll

3:23 am

better than the other way around

3:25 am

oh good grief. i have one eye on a show called pointless and some dolly bird just said wilde's first name is thomas... lol

3:26 am

3:26 am

3:27 am

roflol

3:27 am

on what do i text him, dear liza dear liza, on what do i text him dear liza on what?

3:28 am

in a bucket, a bucket... :D

3:28 am

you could do the tin can trick with buckets. Just bind them together with really elastic rope

3:29 am

don't tempt me.... at full stretch i will let my end go.... thump

3:30 am

solves the whole problem. He won't be able to feel his head hurt anymore, and he won't be needing a phone.

3:33 am

i cannot believe it. not one of the contestants knew coleridge's first name

3:33 am

When I want you in my arms When I want you and all your charms Whenever I want you, all I have to do is

3:34 am

ummmm Sam? Or Taylor?

3:34 am

samuel taylor.... well done

3:34 am

close but no cigar, lol

3:39 am

oh dear he isn't home and either the phone or the computer is beeping at me. i am absolutely not touching either.

3:39 am

very smart. Just ignore them

3:41 am

ugh, phone call from gp's surgery. request for biopsy of one of the cysts in my thyroid is waiting for me to pick up. *sigh* another appointment.

3:42 am

ugh darling :(

3:49 am

3:50 am

not really. it's been very slow growing. and one of the other cysts has actually shrunk.

3:51 am

5:58 am

hello???

5:58 am

g'morning ruby

5:58 am

here

5:58 am

oops

5:58 am

hello dose, I'm sorry about the slip-up

5:59 am

... I just wonder what we'd do if "oops" was in the grid to? ...

5:59 am

or hahah

6:03 am

my faithful, but stinky dog is at my feet. He "perfumeq" the whole house but a litte miasma never hrt anybody

6:04 am

... our very elderly cat died last week and it is like the mice in the walls knew ... because they've all come out and are driving my wife madder

6:05 am

xoxox {{hugs}} dearest ruby. g'day dosef

6:05 am

I'm sorry about your cat. Even old, it is always very sad

6:05 am

... evening granny

6:06 am

"my" mice are all outside and have very long fur

6:06 am

((rosie))

6:06 am

how are you dear friend? and dosef, i don't think you and i have chatted much.

6:08 am

dosef, how long have you been 'clean' of the dr5ed C?

6:08 am

I've started using my stationary bike ad love it except that the seat is uncomfortable

6:08 am

next stop, le Tour!!!

6:08 am

... My wife is being extremely hypocritical about them ... when they're in the cupboard she runs around screaming and shouting at them ... but when I but the glue sheet traps down to catch them she wants me to take them outside and cut them off so we can let them go ... of course she won't do it herself

6:08 am

ruby, have you a gel pack you could use?

6:09 am

... it's a rule ... all bicycle seats must be uncomfortable

6:09 am

To sit on? My helper has gone to the sports store to look for a child's seat or/and padded pants

6:10 am

But this is really painful!

6:10 am

*giggle* either that or pad out your knickers.

6:10 am

... the pants are your better bet ... child seats turn out to be just as uncomfortable in the long run

6:12 am

Happily, I like the exercise and it re**ly makes me pant

6:13 am

my MRI confirmed one of my hip tendons has been torn off the bone. and a protective 'ruffle' on one bone has been pulled half off. i really don't understand why workcover cannot see the link between my fall and the damage in my hips. *sigh*

6:13 am

One of "my" mice is bigger than the others and has auburn fur, very cute

6:13 am

... that's what counts ... ... just make sure you keep yourself hydrated

6:14 am

My oncologist will be happy

6:14 am

good for you ruby.

6:15 am

That sounds very painful, rosie!

6:15 am

i have started bouncing on my mini trampoline. no jumping, just bouncing. it is enough to raise my heart rate.

6:17 am

6:18 am

6:18 am

6:25 am

pain is Under control, only proble is with very itchy bites from an invisible night-time insect

6:26 am

found another 8

6:26 am

locally, they call them "aoutats"

6:26 am

... you're sure it's not a circulation problem in your lower legs? ... that's what my chemo set off

6:27 am

no, the bites are everywhere, in clusters

6:27 am

They look like hives but aren't and they're not bedbugs which leave traces

6:29 am

I was lucky with my chemo; beyond hair loss, it was easy -- unfortnately it didn't stop the cancer from coming back, all these years later

6:29 am

... and fl4/7 would be in the grid too ...

6:29 am

I thought of that, too, but I've never seen one of my light-colored dogs

6:31 am

time for my bed. xoxox to all. enjoy this great grid.

9:35 am

hi crossy

9:38 am

Hiyas, kiddos!

9:40 am

Not quite yet. Here, the kids do not go back to school till the 6th, then we have peace--sort of, from September till there is snow on the ski hill.

9:40 am

gives us a chance to clean up all the garbage :(

9:41 am

Especially at the beach

9:41 am

... well you know Toronto ... ya gotta ship the garbage somewhere

9:42 am

I wonder what they would think if we left it all laying there for them for next may 24? lol

9:42 am

... actually ... I was in New York and on Long Island last week and there is far less litter on the roads and beaches than there is in Toronto and even in Durham region

9:42 am

... they probably wouldn't notice anymore

9:43 am

I do not think Torontonians know how to use a garbage can..

9:43 am

... not any more

9:43 am

... we used to pride ourselves on a clean and tidy city ,,, but not now

9:44 am

hello again all

9:44 am

When we ran our little cottages in Wasaga Beach, every day we had to groom our part of the beach for syringes, glass, dirty diapers and regular garbage.

9:45 am

First LA 5/14?

9:45 am

... past tense of to load up

9:46 am

isn't that a 5/12?

9:46 am

not to mention beer bottles, beer cans, and other booze bottles

9:46 am

... nope ... it's a past tense of a 4.5

9:47 am

... at least you can make money on the beer bottles etc. ...

9:49 am

you are right ty got it

9:49 am

We used to hire kids for that part of it--once we got rid of the broken glass/syringes etc. We would hire two teens and they would spend all day filling the back of our truck with empties. We did not pay them anything but typically each kid would go home with about 200-300 dollars

9:49 am

took them all day too

9:50 am

is FL 7 a pl?

9:50 am

We were too busy rebuilding the cottages :(

9:51 am

... a friend bought a restaurant in Brooklin and we used to ride the bus up for dinner ... I could pick up enough bottles at the bus stop to pay for half the tip ...

9:51 am

... you won't like the fl7 .... ... more like a fire

9:52 am

extension of the fl 5/18?

9:53 am

1989-1992 we ran them used to take 1000 dollar damage deposit and a 100 dollar key deposit. I can only recall a handful of time where we could give both back at the end of a groups stay :/

9:53 am

... yeah ... it's the comparative of the adjective form which I really don't believe exists

9:54 am

Sounds funny to me as well

9:54 am

stupid word

9:54 am

Yeah. That Fl7 is a stretch. I could use it in a sentence: That drag queen is fl7 than the other drag queen.

9:55 am

Apologies to Ru Paul.

9:55 am

lol judi

9:55 am

no offense taken :D

9:56 am

9:58 am

se7/32(I have the compacted row one)....clue please

9:59 am

... adjective describing an edge with slotted line ... usually used to describe knife edges ...

10:06 am

2:43 pm

<I'm jealous now; my hair never looks that good!>

3:21 pm

Oh damn, Gene Wilder passed. The world has lost yet another of the great funny men.

3:24 pm

A great youtube video "Gene Wilder on Willy Wonka Remake, Young Frankenstein, Mel Brooks, and more" is a great talk with Robert Osborne about his career

3:33 pm

I thought he was great as Willy Wonka, but his funny stuff like "Silver Streak" and "Young Frankenstein" were my favorites. Those scenes in "Silver Streak" where he tries to pass for a black man are hysterical.

3:37 pm

Sad news. I absolutely loved him in Young Frankenstein.

3:44 pm

ro 9/60 please

3:59 pm

is anyone still here?

4:08 pm

ro9 is the plural of ro8...a three letter word that means to decay or putrify + Mr. Geller, who could bend spoons + the last two letters of what Budweiser is.

4:09 pm

A Google search on "Geller bend spoons" will help if you don't understand that reference.

4:09 pm

was that whole thing a scam?

4:09 pm

ppl were so into him when I was a kid

4:12 pm

thanks so much Molly.....I was losing it here!!

4:16 pm

100 to go! found all the 8s and 9s. bbl!

4:20 pm

Harry, I have no clue about whether or not Geller was legit.

4:52 pm

Molly your icon is very cute.

4:59 pm

Evening all. Logged in this evening in the hopes of more non-rude pornography like last night. Dammit!! no such luck this evening! LOL.

4:59 pm

hey all

4:59 pm

Hey India :-)

5:00 pm

i missed pornography last night?

5:00 pm

hey Soodle :)

5:02 pm

It was more of a Guilty Pleasures fest than pornography, in fairness... The attributes of attractive men were discussed in detail....

5:03 pm

...and sweet dreams were had by all!

5:03 pm

I left midway through the chat. I couldn't wait to get to be to see who I would dream about. In the end, I had a dream about a cat sneezing.... Go Figure....

5:04 pm

<----- Story of life.... :-(

5:04 pm

:)

5:06 pm

Not even a glimmer of hope that I will finish this grid .... To bed now, to dream of sneezing cats...... (((Champ)))) Night all. X

5:09 pm

Hoping you have better dreams tonight, Soodle!

5:31 pm

Hello Babblers

7:31 pm

As usual, I thought there were a lot of dumb words in this grid

7:38 pm

I wish I had more patience for this stupid game

7:43 pm

I find this game challenging, but never fun or easy peasy.

7:46 pm

However, as is continually said, to each their own. Yaah for those who love each grid!!!

7:46 pm

If I didn't find it fun I wouldn't play. There are too many things I HAVE to do that aren't fun to spend time on something that isn't. :D

7:47 pm

the r's are NOT Fun..

7:49 pm

would someone clue the ro 8 / 9 please

7:49 pm

Furn and challenging don't always mean the same thing to me.

7:50 pm

Furn? Sorry, fun

7:50 pm

ro9 is the plural of ro8...a three letter word that means to decay or putrify + Mr. Geller, who could bend spoons + the last two letters of what Budweiser is.

7:51 pm

Yes, sometimes it becomes a slog and I shut it down. I do like a good challenge though.

7:51 pm
