morning all
hiya, sprite. just got to 100, yawning hugely, may wander off and come back tomorrow. How's life treating you?
pretty okay, just battling an on-and-off flu. And you?
I keep trying to get into spring cleaning mode, but spring isn't cooperating, still winter, haha.
lol! We had a springlike day yesterday here. All of a sudden lovely temps and even sun.
cooee and g'day from me to you. xoxox {{sprite}} {{rbud}}
*hugs rose* Hello dear friend, how lovely to see you. How are you doing?
howdy, g'rose, and hugs back at you.
one word or two?
either. both.
bl***y sore. booked into hospital in a fortnight.
ugh, a long two weeks to go then. *healing vibes to your poor ole sore body*
seeing GP tomorrow.gonna make sure she has look at my left shoulder and ankle.
wish I could do something to make things easier for you. You deserve better than to be in constant pain.
what's this i see about the flu?? did you get too cold last weekend?
I don't think so. Tim has been down with the flu and I caught the bug from him, no doubt. I seem to be greedy that way. Whenever someone has something catching, I catch it.
sprite, oney. it's only a couple more weeks. some people go on and on forever with very little relief in sight.
I know, my friend. Still doesn't make your situation a walk in the park. *whispers to hospital that they must move you up*
i hope it's only a cold for you. your flu vax should still be working.
true, it does. Won't help though if this flu is not in the cocktail. Ah well, we will see. Wish it did not make me so very tired, lol... I almost get nothing done.
know that feeling very well. here.... a gentle granny hug to warm you up.
*cuddles into the granny hug* Now that is what the doctor ordered :)
*grin*
where did rbud go? Off to bed?
did i chase our rbud away?? seems like it. didn't mean to do that.
*snap*
rofloll... you'd think by now i would remeber.... let the Sprite speak first, don't double up on chat.
*giggles* Nah, much more fun this way
yeah, it is.
rbud already said she was yawning her head off... she might have toddled off to bed
next week is gonna be busy, and I won't be in babble. Monday nail training, tuesday through thursday heart academy. So friday at the earliest.
*giggling* himself was all snuggled up in bed having a papa nap... heard the rattle of crackers in their box, and the clank of knife on his plate of cheese. now he's sitting up like a cheeky monkey, munching away.
nail training?? do you need to email me ??
awwwww that is so cute!
I do, and I will, right after babble.
hokay.
I still have your lovely email to answer :D

wow that sounds great. I have just the one. Nobody will mind if I write in it though.
well get ready my darling girl. you are about to start the most incredible journey of your life.
hi Sprite and Rose - not getting anywhere with this puzzle, headachy and tired - guess there's only one place I SHOULD be!!
*hugs flosey* Go to bed then... cuddle up with your fella and rest that weary head...
*sending gentle kisses to flosey's sore head*
very good advice ladies, and I think I'd better take it! off to bed for me - see you tomorrow night
I hope you will sleep well and wake up refreshed and headache-free
sweetest of dreams dear friend

Hi Scrabs
When do you leave to start hiking the AT, scrabbler?
May 9.
ANd then youll be finished by the time you meet for the Babble dinner?
We will start at Loft Mtn and hike 8-10 miles daily.
Heading north on the trail.
So cool, I'm totally jelly.
I have hiked short portions in the MD-VA-PA areas.
I am trying to get in better shape--swimming, doing strength training--since Nov.
My sister has hiked many sections of the AT--CT, NY, NJ, PA, Maryland, WV, VA. I am joining her and her hiking friends.
THat is awesome :) Don't forget to bring TOENAIL CLIPPERS, very important
Why? I usually trim my toenails a week before big hikes.
If a toenail breaks druing the hike or becomes jaggedy, that could be painful & making hiking miserable. I am prone to ingrowns, so I always carry clippers.
Ah. I will have a small multi-function knife with me.
I'll be thinking of you & wishing you good weather and good hiking!
Clues for anything before I go?
I am excited. I ramped up my strength training 2 weeks ago--90-120 minutes three times weekly.
No, thanks. I just passed halfway so I am content.
OK have a great day, nice to see u
Enjoy the day.
46 left. Maybe I will return tonight.

OK. The definition of my last word is: "A long, slender, tubular extension of the sicula in a graptolite." I think that should help everyone, right?????
(after I look up sicula and graptolite)
anyone need clues before I go poof?
what word was that?
ne4,5
sicula sounds like dracula's ill sister
or his dog
lol
that works too
turns out it's a paleozoic species (graptolite) and the sicula is "the conical chitinous skeleton of the initial zooid". There ya go, ya learned something today :-)
I learn stuff here nearly every day

Hey ru, l can't read the caption on your cartoon; l must be getting old!
" so they bring this tree in the house with all these shiny dangly things on it, and freak out if I go near it.. this is why i drink"
it was a xmas cartoon
i saved it.. and liked it
I did a Google search on Ru's image. Two cats walk into a bar...bah-dum-ching
As for Ipads, I don't do anything Macintosh.
my pool is almost warm enough to swim in
I might try it this afternoon in the sun
You will experiece shrinkage for sure.
Hi folks
Hi Ori!
hi ori
well hego.. i could use a little shrinkage
Really!
Enjoy the pool, ru. It's supposed to start raining again on Tuesday - sigh.
hi all -- just had a quick look at this -- didn't get the wh 5-6 clue but off to watch curling for a while
That's a first.
(sets out the valium for nan to enjoy the curling)
ZZZZZZZZZZ.......
Are we really talking about Ru's shrinkage? Yee Gods.
Shocking!!!
taking a poke at it at least
Cold water, men's privates, oh well, hope there is a warm towel available.
i bounce back ok :D
:D
it is gorgeous here today
Jealous
So nice to see "jealous" and not "jelly". Although I don't understand the jealous thing. Glad you have nice weather Ru.
yeah well.. we just had torrential rains so it's not been that great out here if that makes you guys feel better :D
I'd just like some nice spring weather.
Just a few days, that's all I ask.
I'm good. Always glad to hear that a friend is having nice weather. It doesn't make me jealous.
:D
somewhere in the world it's nice
not so much in Syria right now though
But no, we'll wake up one day and it will be sweltering.
Never in Syria.
Hello from La Belle France
hi bichon.. where is La Belle?
HA!
anywhere near Patti ?
In France
Where Bichon?
ok.. where are you in France
We are cruising to Avignon
Nice town. Lovely area.
oh god. it's beautiful there
Great wine!
so many terrific restaurants and a great farmers market
Chateau Neuf du Pape!
really great wine
Cote du Rhone!
Cotes
We are on a cruise ship which has great food
Oui!
Local stuff is pretty great too.
yes indeed
The Bichons just travel and travel
Yes, our greatest pleasure
i'm kind of over it.
But I enjoyed it for a long time.
There is a large group of Thai on b oard. They brought lots of their own food
You're kidding!
How do you even do that?
Packed in plastic b ags
I can't even imagine.
Best part of travel is experiencing great food and culture.
I'd hate to be Thai'd down with a limited menu
Good one!
although it has been a while since I've been Thai'd down though :D
:D
in my older years.. I don't need to be restrained :D
Canada is through to the gold medal game against Sweden -- should be a good one
Enjoy Nan.
weill do - starts at 5pm our time
not sure what time in Vegas -- are they on pacific or mountain time?
Mountain
ok, so 4pm in Vegas then
Okay, un-refrigerated Thai food, packed in plastic bags is grossing me out.
*!*~*!* hagd everyone
Especially garlicy thai food
just read the chat -- we've met people that thought the french food was terrible --- mind you, they were eating all their meals at McDonalds -- who in their right mind would do that!
hello friends.
late start for me today....
How late?
I meant for babbling, just coming to the grid now
I have no idea why anyone eats at McDonald's.
I suspect it's the price point Molly
A lot of folks live in food deserts and that's what's available
Some deserts. Yuck
Well, there is always the option of buying food and cooking it yourself, but that seems vague and uncertain to many. Hence, McDonald's.
It is cheaper too. Not to mention it being more healthy
I am amazed at the amount of people who "eat out" all the time. The expense alone floors me.
I try to eat out at least twice a month
I tend to cook at home mostly
Yes, but you eat out at good restaurants. Most people who opt for eating out, go for fast food.
I used to work in SE District of Columbia. There was nowhere to buy food. So of course they ate at Micky D
Yeah. And i have to make appearances at my customers. I get to write it off though
I would pack a lunch natasha
Yes of course that is what I did... but I didn't live there so I had access to decent food to pack.
Yes i can see that
there are many urban sections of the US that have no real grocery stores with affordable produce.
https://www.dcpolicycenter.org/publica\ntions/food-access-d-c-deeply-connected\n-poverty-transportation/
sorry, I'll get off my soapbox now. But it really bothers me to live cheek by jowl with those who have so little when I have so much. Not that I'm rich mind you, but I don't worry about where I'm going to get my next meal. There are children right here in my neighborhood who have nothing to eat at home.
On Fridays I help pack backpacks of food for these kids to take home from the school around the corner from my house.
What blew the chat box?
Oh, I missed the long url.
The way this country pisses away money makes me ill that some of it isnt directed to the poor

Might be up in a few weeks bugs
Right! I forgot how quickly that is coming.
I will write soon. When I know for sure
I am counting on that. If it is not on my calendar I have no idea what is going on.
Done. I need to get more done here before I have to go pick up my lush. Happy Babbling all.
