12:26 am

don't know was just saying there was one in addition to the 7-8 pair

12:29 am

I have three now, one set of tr6 and 7, one tr 7 from a tr5 base, and the tr 7-8, also. :)

12:36 am

yes

12:37 am

good find, not a common word, I'd think. and thanks. :)

12:37 am

Clues are up

1:20 am

thanks, lickety... :)

1:22 am

thanx dear man. could you please adjust the time for us?

1:42 am

good morning all

1:44 am

*gives rose a big hug*

1:53 am

Good morning

1:54 am

*hugs Maisie* Good morning, dear one! How are you doing?

1:55 am

You know me, fine thanks. How are you

1:56 am

all good here. Just waiting for any member of my intervision group to answer my email, lol. I do not have transportation today to go to the intervision meeting. If nobody can pick me up, I cannot go. And oh what a drama that would be (NOT)

1:57 am

What's an intervison group

1:58 am

I actually like it better when lickety comes in later. I'm gr5ful for the list, don't get me wrong, but it's fun to work at it among ourselves, too.

1:58 am

for the volunteer work I do, we come together with our trainer and our fellow members and discuss some of the telephone or chat conversations we have had in the past month.

1:59 am

hiya rbud!

1:59 am

I miss Volleymomdee, she's always fun to watch as she works it all out.

2:00 am

Thanks sprite, Hi rbud. I don't even look at the list till I get really stuck

2:00 am

hi hi! just passing back through for a bit. got to 100 left so far.

2:00 am

How is the new baby

2:01 am

keeping the list hidden until really stuck at the end gives me the most fun.

2:01 am

what's with Dee then, rbud?

2:01 am

I don't, either, Maisie, but there's always a big slackback of clueing after the list comes up, seems to me. Kind of an "oh, well, no need to try now" feeling... if you follow.

2:01 am

ks killed

2:02 am

Not sure, I still see her at facebook sometimes, but not here any more. Unless she's here when I'm not. Maybe I'll ask, hmmm...

2:02 am

I very much dislike the unsolicited calling of biggies, so that is why I do no longer play at fliptime

2:04 am

oh, well, there is that. I always look for that in the back chog, but then I mostly am doing it later on, too, a few hours after flip.

2:06 am

anyway, most days I get to chat at this later time with rose and maisie and Kam and flosey and you, and whoever else feels likie joining in... so that is something delightful that's come from it :)

2:06 am

cooee and g'ay from me

2:06 am

like*

2:07 am

Wondered where you had gone, hi Rose

2:07 am

there she is. Took some doing to chase you out of the woodwork, my dear. *hugs*** again.

2:07 am

What do you mean later time, I've only just woken up

2:07 am

dee doesn't want to be seen in chat because when Trump was voted in, and she said she had voted for him, dee was vilified by those in chat at the time. i was absolutely appalled.

2:07 am

lolll Maisie :)

2:08 am

That's awful Rose poor Dee

2:08 am

that is the reason nobody should discuss politics in chog. It is amazing, the things people say when someone has the utter nerve to have a different opinion from theirs.

2:08 am

hey Maisie and Sprite. huggggssss for both of you.

2:09 am

oh, no, that's horrible. I know she says a thing or two now and then at FB, but I just let it go, as I do with others, because I love other things about them more.

2:09 am

Hugs back

2:10 am

hugs rbud.

2:10 am

I think Trump is a creep, but that does not give me the right to vilify someone who thinks he is great.

2:10 am

I can't believe anyone here was that mean. Sigh.

2:10 am

exactly sprite.

2:11 am

I think most politicians are creeps, just in it for themselves

2:11 am

amen, Maisie. I always say that politicians are people who are paid to be professional liars ;)

2:11 am

don always asks.... how do you now when a politician is lying?

2:11 am

it would be easy for us all to go nuts, I've always liked the nice level of civility that mostly goes on here.

2:11 am

his mouth is moving?

2:11 am

answer.... their mouth is moving

2:12 am

I agree with that, and we have wasted enough chat on them!

2:12 am

*giggles*

2:12 am

roflolll sprite.

2:12 am

that was my guess, too, lol! :)

2:14 am

I agree, rbud, usually babble chat is very civil for an internet community. Babblers, for the most part, are great people!

2:14 am

we both had the best night since forever last night. slept like babes and woke naturally when we were ready.starting to feel like doing stuff finally.not just keep it rolling, but extra stuff. another might like that and we will be up and away... loll

2:15 am

Nice one Rose

2:15 am

Nice one Rose

2:15 am

Were people really vilifying her or she took it personally

2:16 am

oh wow rose, you were due a night like that. Several, actually. Am so glad.

2:16 am

no, ruru. i saw what they said. and it was disgusting.

2:16 am

the only other time I recall being a bit outraged at the treatment of anyone here was when someone was picked on for getting a pup from a breeder. Uncalled-for meanness to a lovely person.

2:16 am

hiya ru. Dee isn't that touchy.

2:16 am

I don't remember the chat but no one in the late night crowd strike me as vilifyers

2:16 am

She needs to be here at this time of day, we are nice

2:17 am

*grins* Most of the time, Maisie... but when we aren't nice, we are being bad and that is even better...

2:18 am

Yes but our bad is a bit different and it's usually Rose who starts it lol

2:18 am

unfortunately ruru i cannot remember names or even the date. all i remember is how appaling to treat dee like that when these people had been playing babble and chatting with her for quite some time.

2:18 am

HEY !! i resemble that remark Maisie.

2:18 am

it is always rose who starts it. I wouldn't dream of starting something naughty. *innocent blink*

2:19 am

me neither sprite

2:19 am

I would have missed it because we were in the hospital last fall during election time. couldn't spend time on a computer, really.

2:19 am

Well. trump does bring out strong feelings one way or another

2:19 am

no need to call names or dates. Let's leave it in the past, where it belongs.

2:19 am

ROFLOLLLL oh sprite, you wicked, wicked lady

2:19 am

sorry Rose lol

2:19 am

rbud, you really had no energy or time to spare back then, of course. Tough time.

2:20 am

strong feelings are fine, ru. But we can be careful in the way we express them, and not be vicious to somebody with a different opinion.

2:20 am

well, that and the public access computers in the hospital were limited. I was here a few times, but didn't talk much.

2:21 am

not easy to join in the banter when your life is all about illness and loss, rbud. I have had a few episodes where I didn't chat much either. Hard to believe, I know ;)

2:22 am

:D

2:22 am

sometimes it just helps to be here without saying anything

2:22 am

true, Maisie.

2:22 am

\hows the new baby rbud

2:22 am

as have we all, sprite, as you well know. rbud, we support more than anything here.

2:22 am

most of the public access computers wouldn't allow access to facebook, which I thought was a great idea, hahaha

2:23 am

lollllll facebook is one big timesink... and data collecting site. I hear ya! Good question, Maisie... rbud, how IS that new baby doing?

2:24 am

oh, she's just adorable, but our son and her mom spent the day sniping at each other in cell phone texts. she wants him to magically change, she has a lot to learn.

2:25 am

If that is why dee doesn't chat it is just sad. Everyone likes her and she was really fun at the flip

2:25 am

oooooo is that lady missing the boat by a long shot... lol! People can change... but only through their own volition, and usually not overnight.

2:25 am

I spent 30 years wishing my hubby would give up his one really bad habit, (too much beer, too often) but I never tried to change him.

2:25 am

and not through sniping

2:25 am

I can't be a fan of her endless listings, ru, but Dee is a good person and a valued babbler. She deserves better.

2:26 am

okay, i am out of sync here. i know there is a new grandbabby. wose is the father, and who is the mother?

2:26 am

you should ask who's the grandma

2:27 am

rbud

2:27 am

I agree, Maisie, never through sniping. But having your first child is definitely a culture shock. Not sleeping the nights through doesn't help matters. And the hormone rollercoaster of pregnancy, birth and feeding is a lady dog. I can understand her being unreasonable.

2:27 am

Our son is the daddy, and he's a bit reluctant to turn into a domestic type. :p

2:27 am

aaarrrggghhh i know rbud is the granny. who are the parents and how are they related to rbud... pleeeeeas

2:28 am

Agree sprite, he'll get there hopefully

2:28 am

keep up, rose, tsk.

2:29 am

Well I must go, have a playdate with our 2 one year olds. See you all tomorrow xoxox

2:29 am

ummmm, take away both their phones and tell them they can have them back once they are being nice to each other.

2:29 am

his girlfriend is the new mom, and has another cute little boy from a previous relationship. he's about 4 and a half, lots of freckles and red hair. He's fun, too, but drives our son nuts.

2:29 am

have a terrific time, Maisie *hugssss*

2:29 am

lol Rose bye

2:29 am

oh I like that, rose :D

2:29 am

bye Maisie. enjoy your day sweetie. xoxox

2:29 am

(the little boy belongs to the girlfriend, NOT our son. trying to be clear here, haha!)

2:30 am

and four year olds are notoriously little stinkers too

2:31 am

I remember saying here in chat once that little kids should come with an offswitch... and somebody totally blew up at me for that, lol.

2:31 am

I often wish I could shut son's phone off, but he's 26 now and a bit past my ability to discipline, more's the pity.

2:31 am

phantom: campaign

2:31 am

i would have traded each of my boys at four for a puppy every time.

2:32 am

hahaha!!! I hear that, rose!

2:32 am

his loss, rbud. Boy childs should be answerable to their mums until 28 at least :)

2:32 am

this one IS a wound-up little handful, but so far he loves his new little baby sister.

2:33 am

may i give you some advice, no strings attached.

2:33 am

that might be the problem, they forgot to attach the strings to tie him down

2:35 am

although this little boy is not your son's child, could you advise him, quietly, that to make a fuss of him will make a world of difference.

2:37 am

i don't know how my son did it. he has two step-sons and they both listen to him when he speaks out. my son now has three of his own, and the way he runs his home, in tandem with his wife, is staggering.all the kids heed him.

2:37 am

If I had a nickel for everyone that blew up at me here i could retire

2:38 am

you and me both, ru

2:38 am

i have retired.... lolll

2:38 am

lollll

2:40 am

well, some people take offence very easily. And some seem to enjoy being offended more than to accept an apology. Thank God they are the exception here.

2:42 am

I had one emotional player tell me I hope you die from aids. But i still chat

2:43 am

that is a truly awful thing to say to anyone. Am glad it didn't chase you away, ru

2:46 am

Hello fellow babblers :-)

2:47 am

Hope you are all keeping well?

2:48 am

Hi zooz

2:48 am

Oh just read you comment, Ru. what a nasty thing for someone to say.

2:49 am

Your*

2:49 am

Looks like I have scare, Sprite, away lol

2:50 am

Scared*

2:50 am

I can see I am having a typo day today.

2:50 am

{{zzooooooozz}} hugs

2:51 am

(((GrannyRose)))

2:51 am

Just putting the earlier comments in perspective. There are some "overly excitable" people here sonetimes

2:51 am

Hope you are well?

2:51 am

Earlier comments..hmm..will have a quick look back.

2:51 am

i am okay thanx zooz. yourself and the parents?

2:53 am

sorry, telephone call. Hiya zooz, dear man! *hugs* How rae you and how are your parents doing?

2:53 am

I wouldn't call Dee overly excitable

2:55 am

No. That isnt what i meant sprite

2:56 am

ah, I wondered, ru. Since she was the one who was chased away from babble chog by things that were said here.

2:56 am

Just read back..Shame about, Dee. Hope she comes back into the chat at some point although I a not often on at that time of the day here. People can be cruel at times here.

2:57 am

I remember I was chatting to, Ruby, about trump and saying not nice things about him when someone piped up and asked us not to talk about politics. I could of said we can talk about what we want but I respected her wishes as I think it was offending her. So I stopped.

2:58 am

I am well thank, Rose parents are doing okayish thanks.

2:58 am

well I managed to finagle a hitchhike from a fellow volunteer... to the meeting. For going home, I have to hope for the best since she has to leave early, lol.

2:58 am

There you are, Sprite!

2:58 am

Can you not leave early with her, Sprite?

2:59 am

people can easily go too far discussing politics or religion. That is the reason in most chats, those topics are strongly discouraged.

2:59 am

zooz, i had hoped the warmer weather may have picked them up a tad for you.

2:59 am

I could, zooz, if I really had to. But I trust somebody will be able to drive me home, or at least drop me at the train station.

3:00 am

warmer weather? Rose, we are heading into winter here, silly

3:00 am

Rose when we had temps of around 30C my mother still had her hot water bottle on her lap lol bless her. Dad is just very weak and frail.

3:00 am

I didn't vote for trump but i can understand why people did. I don't think i would tell someone they are wrong in a harsh way

3:01 am

last i spoke to zooz , sprite, was before we left for europe.

3:01 am

I didn't vote for trump but i can understand why people did. I don't think i would tell someone they are wrong in a harsh way

3:01 am

Exactly, Ruru.

3:01 am

you have the talent of being able to disagree without putting down the person you disagree with, ru. Some people don't, alas.

3:01 am

I heard you the first time, Ruru LOL

3:02 am

lol zooz!

3:02 am

i am weeping. shooting in Las Vegas. crowds being bullied by army in Catalona. it's too much.

3:03 am

not. watching. the. news. for exactly that reason

3:03 am

don't sprite. my heart breaks for our beautiful world.

3:03 am

Sort of sprite. But i tease the crap out of them 😝

3:04 am

Interesting chat, I have no problem with people discussing whatever they like. Differing opinions make the world go round.

3:04 am

That is the thing about news on the TV mainly..It is full of hard hitiing nasty things that is going on all the time,Rose, best to try not to watch too much of it. ((Rose))

3:05 am

*giggles* teasing is good, ru. Teasing keeps the blood pumping and the laugh muscles trained.

3:05 am

love you, rose. *hugs*

3:05 am

Laugh muscles what are they. lol

3:06 am

hiya sandy! True, dat. But it doesn't work that way for some people, alas.

3:06 am

i give thanx that Don and I were able to make our trip this year.

3:07 am

Laugh muscles related to love muscles?

3:07 am

indeed, rose. So am I.

3:07 am

yeah, next to eachother, ru. Sometimes they even overlap.

3:07 am

Oh well if that is the case, ruru my muscles must be puny.

3:08 am

love muscles.... love handles.... don't get them mixed up ruru

3:08 am

LOL

3:08 am

I guess it is a dutch saying that doesn't translate then, grin. We say 'it works on my laugh muscles' when we want to say it strikes us as funny.

3:09 am

fireflies, btw. Sneaky grid today, with not as much revenue from the gerund as I hoped.

3:09 am

I knew what you meant, Sprite, I was just jesting :-)

3:09 am

:)

3:09 am

Congrats, Sprite!

3:10 am

WTG SPRITE !!

3:11 am

Love handles.... There is a funny and sick joke about Prince Charles' love handles

3:12 am

Makes achange form

3:12 am

Makes achange form

3:12 am

are you referring to his ears perchance, ruru?

3:12 am

Makes a change from him being teased about his ears then.

3:13 am

Sorry hit the return key before I went to correct.

3:13 am

which brings to mind... how does any woman hold her liquer?

3:13 am

Oh was it about his ear lol

3:13 am

3:16 am

3:16 am

3:16 am

*hugs* and lots of love, rose. Bye all, have a blessed day and a peaceful night.

3:17 am

Toodle pips, Sprite.

3:17 am

Looks like I have shooed everyone away. I have the whole chog to myself now mwaaaaaa!

3:18 am

Hello...hello...hello...Is anybody here...here...here...

3:19 am

Nope looks like no one else is...starts singing "All by myself"

3:19 am

lol

3:20 am

I am still here zooz

3:20 am

Hello, Sandy :-)

3:20 am

very cold today so I am feeling lazy

3:21 am

I should think Spring is just around the corner for you now. Will not be long before the hot days will be with you!

3:21 am

I went for a walk yesterday and trod on a dugite however, I ran away and was OK!

3:21 am

Do you not have a hot water bottle?

3:22 am

I had my new puppy with me and she was not on the lead. She is a Jack Russel and I was terrified she would see the snake

3:22 am

Oh wow! I would of pooped myself to be honest. Not keen on any snake!

3:23 am

Some dogs seem to be fearless too. Glad she was okay.

3:23 am

I am quite cosy inside actually. I hate snakes as most here are very dangerous. Actually I have to go and bring the horses in so out into the cold I go. Sorry to leave you all alone! Bbl

3:24 am

Hope you have a great evening, Sandy!

3:25 am

Don't worry about me being all by my self here. I do not mind...wipes a tear away from my eye with my jumper sleeve..sniff..sniff

3:26 am

What is a dugite?

3:26 am

It is a Snake, Ruru.

3:26 am

A lethal snake at that!

3:27 am

Ugh

3:29 am

Oh these bloody crows..They keep hammering on my roof. I swear they are chipping my roof to destruction. i keep going out and trying to shoo them away but they keep coming back. Who said crows are smart. Do they not get the message. GET OFF MY ROOF!!!

3:30 am

Wow. You are almost stark raven mad!

3:30 am

Ha very funny Ru!

3:32 am

And just for the record crows are much bigger than ravens in fact these crows are humongous!

3:34 am

You want to murder them?😖

3:36 am

Did look online and lots of people say shoot them. But it is not allowed. although to be honest I do not want to go that far. But I am sure they are damaging my roof. But they will not saty away.

3:36 am

stay*

3:37 am

Wonder why they are doing that?

3:39 am

Well some people are there are saying they are trying to get grit into their diet to help digest grains and such. But i live right next to the sea. There is plenty of sand for them to eat as much as they want. lol

3:40 am

What baffles e more is that most of the other houses around here are left alone it is moslty mine and a few others they are concentrating on.

3:41 am

Hmmm odd

3:41 am

Spray your roof with bitter apple spray

3:43 am

You do know how much rain we get here, Ruru. that would not last long. Plus It is rather high up to get to my roof. Did I tell you I am scared of heights lol

3:43 am

Oh. Sorry

3:43 am

lol

3:44 am

I cleaned my parents windows the other day and when I got about five rungs up the ladder my legs started to wobble. And I swear it was getting windier at that height of about 20 inches off the ground.

3:46 am

I am not big on heights either

3:47 am

Glad it is just not me then.

3:47 am

I have nearly finished that book, Ruru. there are some really weird stories near the end of the book.

3:48 am

I am savoring that book. I am glad I have it

3:49 am

I am off to bed. Night zooz

3:49 am

I have twelve more books lined up after this one lol

3:49 am

Take care, Ruru. Have a great sleep chap.

3:52 am

Sorry for hogging the chat log babblers. As you can tell I am having a day to myself today.

3:52 am

Well that is the plan anyway.

3:53 am

what books are you reading zooz?

3:54 am

I am near the end of That glimpse of truth- 100 of the finest short stories ever written.

3:55 am

Nex tone will be poems by John Clare.then fantastic beasts by J.K. Rowling then Starchaser by Angie Sage.

3:55 am

sounds interesting. i keep a pile of books to read too.. plus cant stop checking them out of the library lol

3:56 am

am reading the third in a trilogy by libba bray. about the supernatural . great series

3:56 am

Then there is a trilogy of books by Ransom Riggs- Miss Perrgrine's home for peculiar children.

3:57 am

oh yes!! i read the first one in that series..was so good

3:57 am

Ooh i like things about the supernatural. Will look those ones up. Thanks, Ivesy!

3:58 am

I love books. I like the smell off books. I love the feel of books too.

3:58 am

yw.. first one is called the diviners

4:04 am

Just looked at them on amazon. they look good. Will order the trilogy when I get my pile of books lower. thanks, Ivesy!

4:06 am

sure anytime. i have over 100 books on to read list on goodreads lol..and if you ever want to know the order of a series, there is a web site.www.fantastic fiction. com.. gives books in the exact order the author wrote them.. in case you havent heard of the site..

4:08 am

Thank you I have just bookmarked the website :-)

4:09 am

yw... i get a bit carried away about books.. guess thats why i work in a library lol

4:10 am

What a lovely job to have. Nothing wrong with getting carried away with books!

4:11 am

I get a bit carried away sometimes too. For instance I went out of my way to get all the 1/1 editions of the Harry potter books. including the deluxe versions lol

4:12 am

lol..good to know im not the only one

4:13 am

My problem is i am running out of space form my books lol

4:14 am

i can relate to that.. so i just put them on the floor in the living room lol i have them in every room

4:16 am

My parents were getting rid of some of their books and I saved one called 'Advice To A young Christian' and inside the front cover a hand written note from a guy called Henry Hope to a Edwin Wozencroft and it is dated January 29th 1893. and the hand writing is beautiful. Not seen calligraphy like it.

4:18 am

now that is a beautiful keepsake to have. .

4:18 am

Although the book is looking a bit tatty which is a shame. But I could not bring myself to let it get thrown away. So I had it.

4:19 am

Oh yes I agree. i even tried to look up these two people on a notion of giving them the book but could not find much about them lol

4:19 am

Well not them personally but their relations.

4:20 am

Just thought that maybe a family member would love to treasure it.

4:22 am

that was a nice thought. they prob. would have like having it

4:24 am

I would love to find hand drawn illustration books of flowers or insect etc. Seen a few on the antiques road show but not in real life.

4:25 am

my son went to an estate sale and found a very old dictionary. very large one. he was thrilled.

4:26 am

I bet. It must be nice to find a nice thing like that when you least expect it.

4:27 am

i found some very old books when we were cleaning the library.. old, old copy of gone with the wind, and dozens of classics. i just had to have them lol

4:28 am

Oh wow you lucky lady!!

4:29 am

well, as you can see, i could talk about books all day!but need to get my day started lol. was nice chatting with you zooz! ty

4:30 am

My dad said he had a lot of hand written books from the 19th centuary and he sold them all for £3 at the car boot sale. I was gutted and felt sick as I would have snapped those up in a heart beat.

4:30 am

And you, Ivesy! Hope you have a great night and a wonderful day!

4:31 am

Oh sorry yes it must be early morning where you are.

4:31 am

you have great day ,or night too !

8:01 am

Agree Kap

You could slap a diagnosis on everyone in this country and it would not predict who was going to commit a massacre.

8:03 am

Families tend to be in denial about things like that. And getting rid of guns won't completely solve the problem. People will find other ways (home made bombs) to perpetrate their misguided beliefs.

8:03 am

I wasn't suggesting a prediction. Just better mental health resources available for those in need.

No one should be able to easily purchase semi-automatic weapons and military ammunition. Better mental health resources are needed in and of themselves, for everyone, as a separate issue

8:14 am

I am not sure what is worse today, an apparent maniac in Las Vegas or the police brutality in Catalan - appalling pictures

Malthus may well turn out to be right. We may have a planet of the apes.

8:53 pm

lol, needed your "clue" Nef

8:56 pm

I hate it when I do that; Aloy, I feel like I put more words in the chat by accident than anyone else. Sometimes it seems likeI only *see* words when I am chatting than when I'm actually searching for words! (& I get so excited I enter them in the wrong place!)

8:56 pm

Hi mkg. That was a nice run of clues for the 8's; wasn't it?

8:57 pm

np, I'm sure everyone understands, Nef... have spent a good time in the PB myself (-:

8:59 pm

Thanks for the kind words, Aloy.

9:02 pm

LOL.. just thought of my own experience and came up with a motto: "Chatting/Babbling is the path to the PB !" Maybe we should call it Chabbling..

9:03 pm

LOL! It would be appropriate!

9:09 pm

Well, while chabbling now; I've found 4 K's & 4 P's; so see how much it helps?

9:14 pm

wtg, Nef ! am down to 32 here

THANKS, harp! I got it now! :-)

9:33 pm

9:35 pm

Good to know. Will I remember next time it's in the grid? (Unfortunately, I probably won't.)

9:37 pm

Heya kiddos

9:38 pm

hi ori!

9:40 pm

How are you doing Nef?

9:42 pm

So-so, ori. I have too much to do; not enough energy to do it. (We have rainy weather, it slows me down)

9:44 pm

Too much to do and not enough time to do it in is my mantra these days. When I do have time on the weekend I am wiped out. I feel your pain :D

9:44 pm

I haven't even been on the computer much; & for some reason my cell phone & computer aren't communicating well.

9:44 pm

Ouch, technical problems :-9

9:48 pm

Not exactly; if I play WWF on my phone, my computer doesn't have my moves in the games I've played. Then, when my phone tells me that it's my turn, it doesn't list that I have games to play!

9:49 pm

I thought there was something weird going on with our WWF game. I will go in and see what the current status is.

9:51 pm

And my computer does the same thing times.

9:52 pm

I just got to half way!

9:53 pm

10:35 pm

found a weasel

10:38 pm

Sorry, dozed off a bit there, harp. I think I should be heading to bed soon. Had a busy day with the grandson (no school today & his dad has a heavy work load this week) & I'm all in.

10:39 pm

i have 119 left so I might finish. I've been getting up two hours earlier than usual and have not adjusted to my new schedule yet. So I might not make it to the flip

10:40 pm

Are all the fires out or under control now?

10:42 pm

Well, they won't be OUT until the middle of winter, but they are seriously knocked down, and no longer a danger.

10:42 pm

Thank Goodness!

10:44 pm

It was a long season. Worse than any we've had in our area.

10:46 pm

One of my brothers in Missoula has been diagnosed with ALS (he went to Mayo Clinic here last month); & he asked us to come out there for Christmas. The 5 of us are planning to go out there; it's going to look so different with all of the fires since we were out there 2 years ago.

10:47 pm

He thinks this may be his last Christmas. :-(

10:48 pm

Very sad, Nef. My heart goes out to your bro, you, and your family. :(

10:49 pm

Thank you, Nonnie.

10:49 pm

His age, if you don't mind me asking.

10:49 pm

He's only 52, his youngest is about 13 now.

10:50 pm

Oh my gosh! That is so very young...

10:50 pm

(The baby of the family)

10:50 pm

How many siblings do you have?

10:54 pm

So sorry about your brother. ALS is mean stuff. Actually with snow on the mountains you won't notice as much burn.

10:55 pm

LOL! That depends. I have 2 full brothers & sisters; but my Mom died when I was 8 & we were raised by an aunt & uncle with their 1 child (So I think of & call my cousin my sister too since I lived with her longer than any of my other siblings). Then our dad remarried & I have a half sister & a half brother. It's my half brother that has the ALS.

10:57 pm

Aww...a big family! That is nice. My husband was diagnosed with Parkinson's about 2 years ago. It is slowly taking it's toll on him :(

10:58 pm

That's another tough disease. And my hubby has MS. These neurologist-degenerative diseases make aging tough.

10:59 pm

Indeed they do! We're learning a lot as we go along. He's got a good attitude which helps to keep us smiling :)

11:00 pm

Thanks, harp. I hope you get enough snow to make it beautiful out there.

11:00 pm

found an ungulate. i should have gone into the pb earlier

11:01 pm

Let me know if you want to try a meetup with jillyjill while you're here

11:04 pm

I would love to try for a meetup, harp. jillyjill & I have chatted offline about medical/nursy stuff at times; the 1 other time I tried for a meet up with you & LBD; hubby got sick & we ended up not going out there. :-/

11:05 pm

that's right, I remember

11:05 pm

are we FB friends?

11:06 pm

That's the whole thing with fragile health issues. It's impossible to make firm commitments sometimes.

11:06 pm

IDK for sure; but I am with jillyjill

11:07 pm

Because he asked us to come; we *have* to be there this year; no matter what else happens.

11:09 pm

ok i'll find you

11:14 pm

I found you!

11:14 pm

woo hoo

11:14 pm

I always get excited when I see I have friend requests

11:15 pm

I get the weird friend requests myself; so I'm not usually excited about that! :-)

11:17 pm

I get request from cloned accounts, of people who are already my friends, of course.

11:17 pm

11:18 pm

Yes, I get those too. And the ones who want to con you, one way or another.

11:20 pm

11:20 pm

I am secretly afraid that one day I will be stranded overseas and none of my friends will believe me.

11:20 pm

got it thanks

11:23 pm

The funniest one I got was some (supposedly younger) man who thought I was attractive; he thought I had such a mysterious looking my eyes. I've never changed my photo there; so how the heck could he even see my eyes?

11:26 pm

found rodents

11:30 pm

don't forget the word meaning proportion then either.

11:33 pm

I think i have all the r's.

11:44 pm

So I bid yoiuGood Night & happy Babbling Everyone!
