*tum tee tum.... tapping fingers...tum tee tum....still tapping fingers*
HEY SPRITE.... DON'T FORGET THE PAPERWORK... job ain't over until the paperwork is done.... egad... i kill me... ROFLOLL
sorrrrrrrry... as they say here, that came up as nr. 2
*shoots rose for that horrible pun* Yeah, done that too :) and the wetwork after that
good jobs, and wise to cool off and rest up in the a/c
thunder storm on it's way. don outside, up a ladder, checking gutters and downpipes. it is 7:21pm..
hope he is careful
hmmm, maybe i should get him to put my name on all our reservations for our trip.
harsh!
*giggle* nah.... just very naughty.
:D evil woman. Luvu.
as it is said in 'Ghost' ditto
*grin*
I love that movie. Such a feelgood one.
yeah.....
of course you can never go wrong with whoopy
lolll.... i was just thinking that
:D she is marvellous.
i loved "the colour purple'
yes. It is pretty rare for an actor to be able to play both comedy roles and serious ones. And be just as convincing in either.
he is already back inside. so i am guessing all is ready for the storm.
glad he is safely back on level ground
ROFLLOOLLLL. who said it's level?
isn't it? Guess I have the wrong word, lol! How do you put it?
one foot in the grave, and the other on a banana peel.
lol :D
found the chile-bells
nope, you have lost me
co7/44
ahhh, yeah that was a weird one
added it to the babblet list
brb. time to get meds ready.
not going anywhere.
i see your dog in there Sprite
yeah :D hiya sandy! Hope you and yours are okay?
Every thing fine here thanks and same to you
all well here too, thanks! Good to hear you are doing fine.
cooee sandy !! and i am back..
just cooking dinner at the moment - slow cooked lamb shanks
welcome back, honey
hey rose we are expecting a storm here tomorrow as well . We need rain to put water in the tank
ohhh yum sandy... *knocking on sandy's door*.... *let me in *
Yes I love them too. They are from our own sheep
yummmmy *brings fork and knife and sits down at the table*
ummm, was gonna ask that, but thought it maybe TMI...
lol I am heartless , when I see them in the paddock I think "lamb roast"
when I see baby sheep, I think shoarma... with garlic sauce.
aagghhh. *down rose, down* with mint jelly?
What is 'shoarma'
would work for me
you might spell it differently. Showarma, maybe. Israelian dish. Lamb meat, cut in ribbons after being roasted, and seasoned. Very tasty.
or shawarma.
if i pay you, will you cook it for me... pleeeese
I have never heard of it, I will seek it on the internet, I like new recipes
even better, rose, we will order in then. We have a local restaurant that does a wonderful job with it.
sandy, if you like new recipes, google Dublin Coddle. it is amazing...
i made it for St Patrick's Day at our community lunch. EVERYONE came back for seconds.
I will Rose, what is it?
a cross between soup and strew.
here is a good link: http://arrisje.com/shoarma/
That sounds encouraging and st pats day was my 46th wedding aniversary
serve it with sour dough bread.
I will try it Rose
awww congrats sandy and mr. sandy
rose, could you send me your recipe for the dublin coddle? I just found one and it doesn't even use applecider or apples. Can't be right.
happy anniversary, sandy!
np's sprite
ta
well, yeah, to mr sandy too. But it is he who is lucky to have her... and she who is tenacious enough to stay with him *innocent blink*
exactly I tell him all the time
done sprite
rose sent me and Rob two mugs for our anniversary. One says "Mr Right" and the other "Mrs Always Right". I have put them on a shelf in the livingroom. Together with the tiny groom and bride another friend gave us. So funny!
rose, thanks hun! yu da best
That is funny!
hey!!! you were supposed to use them mugs, ya mug... loll
lol I dare not, honey. They are gilded and they have to be washed by hand. In our household, it would only be a matter of time before someone (I am not saying who but his name starts R) puts them in the dishwasher.
the link works fine, btw. Lots of recipes there, I have bookmarked the site and the recipe
lolll... poor Rob
sprite, lots of amazing sites on-ine. have used them time and time again.
I often get new recipes from the internet too. Some disappoint, but most are good or even great
lolll, everytime Kerry, my cohort in Thom's place says lets do such-and-such, i resort to google.
hehehe :D
fireflies
oh... maybe I will make that coddle tomorrow! Rob will love it.
printing it out now. Looks easy enough.
WTG SPRITE !!.
how many grams is lbs..... ugh those odd measures
stick to the recipe. it is more than enough
454. Okay, about half a kilogram
thanks for the inspiration, my friend. A big *hug* for you and Don. Sandy, *hugs*. Have a lovely evening and a peaceful night.
i boiled all the sausages, bacon and vegs together. then lifted the sausages out and cut them up, when they were cool enough to touch.
xoxox sprite. enjoy sweetie.
sounds good to me
hello friends
hi Trif
hi bichon...the calm before my storm day here
at the Institute for the Hormonally Challenged.
Good morning
I'm sitting outside because it's colder in the house
I am Lucky to live here; although the winter was cold, it was much more temperate in other places
((bichon))
than** in othr places
you are lucky to live trump free.
But he is always present in my mind!! And even the blasé French worry that he could carry LePen to victory
mon dieu.
She is awful, more blatantly racist than Trumpfff!
which says everything! I am so sad - I feel, at this point, there is factually NOTHING he could say that would finally get his supporters to see the emperor has no clothes. I pull my hair out.
This appears to b a nasty little grid!
I'm afraid Trump will provoke a war to solidify his position
I can't budge the n in the left column. count please?
"poking the dragons"
so far, I have only one word, the f
... na 4/4 ... a babblet
got it, thanks. nbt, tra la la
careful ruby, they come out fiery!
hi dose
(was that a clue?)
... hi ruby,trif ...
it's the way they must - when you are forced to defend the absolutely undefendable, volume is your only weapon. If you sputter and yell loudly enough you can't hear fact or reason.
hi dos, and thanks so much
Unfortunately, if they dump Trump, Pence is even worse ideologically
I think "dump trump" is a good slogan!
I weep....
And all this time I thought Bannon was the president.
"coviate" sounds like a word, to me
... tried it half an hour ago ... didn't work then... doubt it'll work this time
there's the bell....off to the races. Take are all
... besides that the co6 after it usually has "heli" in front of it so the co7 can't be "cov"
This is the hardest grid for me in a very long time
... try the m the r the t and the h ... they're not as tough
... co7 ... never seen it before ... but thanks to morewords..... police officer + me + shade or colour
glad i came in to hear that clue....what a word!
ty dose, but that's ridic!
it's another word for the national flower of Chile....don't remember learning that in school... :o|
I didn't take Spanish! LOL
hello Pen
hi ruby.....hi everyone else...
I quite! FRor me, the only decent words were: ex7, ep5, and ta7
or even quit!
i totally understand....
bye, friends, at least the sun is shining!
... it was a tough one today ...
bye, ruby...
... can I have some of that sunshine ?
It's still cold, but the sun feels great on my back
i will wish some of our sunshine to you, dose....
Did you see that Binghamton (my old town) got 42" of snow in one day?
... saw the sun yesterday but it's grey and miserable again today
(per my sister)
... missed that
mayb she was exaggerating..........
... snow has been just about gone around here for a month ... ... it's just cold and miserable ... ... or is it just me? .... I don't know ... ... done ...may I offer any clues for anyone? ...
no thanks, dose....see you later....
... then sunny skies, happy days and luck to all ... 'til next time
I'm already thinking that I won't make it through another winter....
gotta stay positive, ruby....
I'll try. That's what my oncologist says!
power of positive thinking!
... I saw that ... stop it ... after winter comes the spring ...and in three years you can vote Donald out ... so you must stick around
hahah, ruefully!
yes, ruby....we will need your vote!
I'm seeihng another oncologist tomorrow and will hope for more good news (the mri and the bone scan were both good)
good...i will send positive thoughts your way....
... the immediate prescription is a sip of wine and some good cheese ...
amen to that...and some good music to accompany that....
... even better
Cheese, yes, but I'd rather have whiske!y
and some oxy
hah!
... better still ... but I finished my Christmas bottle last week ... maybe I should do something healthy and walk to the liquor store
lol...
... yes that's what I'll do ... luck to all
The oncologist always say "Watch out for buses!" when I ask if I'm dying LOL
lol...
co 6/24, pls

what's with the pudding again?
can someone please clue co 6/27?...it's my last word...
nm....found it... :oD
Hi kids.
morning, scrabbs
hi scrabs....hi welki...
hi, pen
Grr, red bars of doom.
hi all, and rasta--yes, the pudding 3 times in lst few days--you kids always liked it--happy birthday soon and how abt a report on the trip?
Hi RB. How are you doing?
gotta get to work--over halfway here (my aaim) and Jeremy has come to life so work is pressing--Heather made goat ice cream--
Ice cream! Yummy!
hi scrabbler--if I ever drive to my camp in Vt again I really want to meet you--these days I fly--the camp is there for the using, on a sweet little lake near Burlington--
rasta spent a week last summer just cleaning it--someone had closed the fridge over the winter--she used a toothbrush--
still pretty far away, roundbarn - i thought about making a trip to buffalo when visiting my daughter in bennington - it's a long haul
it's hard to own property a thousand miles away--and we need to put in an efficient eco toilet this summer--
I will be driving to Acadia NP in late August.
it's beautiful there, scrabbs - not sure, but i think penquis lives 'not too far' from there
cool, scrabs....beautiful place...
and there she is!
let us know if you're going via Burlinton area--we might be there on the lake--should be. Have a john boat and canoe and good swimming --nicest spot on the lake--
It is on my bucket list. We were going to do a Road Scholar trip then decided we could do it cheaper on our own.
do you rent the cabin out, roundbarn? I'd bet my daughter would be interested in a little getaway
cabin will be free--tho we might be peeing in the woods--
Hello again
*sets up a camping porta-potty*
hey ruby
welki, she could use it--would be nice to have a little help with the incredible taxes. But it's currently free to responsible users who will turn off the power when they leave etd--ruby, I owe you a letter and a booklet.
scrabbler, do you remember my asking for some advice on a shoulder injury i sustained? it was over a year ago - finally convinced my doctor to order an mri (after ultrasound and two x-ray guided cortisone injections) - seems i have two, possibly three, tears
Hello to you JJ!
I justt came in to say "hello"
This little grid is too tough
I reeached my little goals and that's it
can i help you, ruby? i just finished
Eating raw fellel and enjoying the sunshine
Will you need surgery, welki?
and to you, Ruby--rasta isn't answering me in chat so I'll call her then get to work. Letter to you soon I hope.
fennel* (fenouil)
going to see the doctor today, but i don't trust him very much - he told me, mri? won't see anything we don't already see
I ate fennel on Saturday and have more in the fridge. I love it.
she just got back from a month in france--new grandson--
i'm going to ask that he refer me to an ortho - if he balks, i'll dig my heels in
sorry to hear about shoulder, welk
hi TO
hi ruby
thanks and hi, owl - it's been giving me (serious) pain for more than a year. can't put a coat on without looking like a failed contortionist, shaving? faggetaboutit - can't life my arm
fennelmakes me salivate for some reason and I eat one bulb every day as I think it's full of vitamins and fiber
or lift it, either - too much info, but gives you an idea of life as welki knows it
it's a digestive
My Italian grandparents called it fennuch.
welki, you are functionally impaired and and chronic pain, so you need to see an orthopedist and get repaired.
i brought it to a holiday dinner and no one ate it but my brother and i.
his solution was to prescribe tylenol 4
I Wonder if all the anis-flavored alcohols are as good for you....raki, anisette, ricard, etc
i went to physio, but she was stymied, because he wouldn't order an mri - afraid she'd injure with aggressive exercises, so just tried to keep the shoulder from freezing
I'm sorry you have so much pain, welki. Happily, my docs here are very anti-pain!
ruby, compared to some who have much worse on their plate, including you, my pain is a drop in the bucket
but I tae drugs every day, so I no longer hurt
I'm not stoic at all, plernicheuse!
did you injure it, welk?
yep, fell on ice
(but saved the bag of potato chips)
haha
do you need to be referred to an ortho, or can you just go?
priorities, ruby :D
That's like when I fell over and on the dog, I was much more worried about him
i have to be referred
priorities!!
Bye for now
Tell your doc that your pediatrician insists that you see an orthopedist.
that is awful. how about a different gp?
bye ruby
yes, yes i will, scrabbs - he probably already thinks (knows) i'm a big baby :)
hard to find one up here, owl, or i'd have quit him years ago
clue for the et 6/21 please
it's a gas, ron
hope you can get what you need soon, so it does not become chronic
bye all
ooh, watching a segment on indoor water park, looks like fun!
Ta welki
You are not a baby, welki. You are in chronic pain AND you are functionally impaired. Both are indications to be referred. Duh.
ron, i know someone who was in antarctica, perhaps when you were
i'm pretty mad at him right now - making me wait this long when i asked for an mri over 6 months ago. i paid for the mri out of pocket, because if i waited for health care to cover it, i would have had to wait until the end of november
did the mri show anything:
So that cost you $1000 or more?
yes - a whole bunch of stuff, two tears and the possibility of a third
wow
$600 - but they wouldn't do my humerus (which the doctor ordered, since i insisted i felt/heard something tear at an old fracture site when i fell) because he wasn't specific enough in his instructions
...so may have to go back for another mri
i also have a lump at that site - his medical term was 'muscle lump' or spasm - oiks!
time for the gym. have a good day, all
oh well - life with welki's arm, the ongoing saga. will let you know what happens
bye, owl
sorry to hear of your arm pain, welki....had a frozen shoulder once, but never a tear....
anyone have the right hand E?
ep 5/16....a unit of time...
ah thanks
ex, it, ta - what's the other 7?
co 7....very weird word...
clue then?
policeman + personal pronoun + color...
thanks!
yw...
the good news is that it is the weirdest word in the grid today... ;o)
