hokay. have changed my pic. seen is DH(grandpa don) with sophia, 4 year old granddaughter.

1:53 am

good morning all

1:54 am

Hey, there sprite

1:54 am

hiya peach! How are you doing today?

1:55 am

cooee and HUGS galore for sprite.... and peach too... loll

1:56 am

*hugs rose* Hello dear friend, I hope your day was good to you

1:57 am

we have had the loveliest day. today my youngest and his wife picked us up and took us to a wonderful pub for christmas/new year gathering of my kids, their sposes and kids. hence the new icon.

1:57 am

spouses...ahem....

1:57 am

love the new icon, lovely pic

1:59 am

don is so wonderful with the kids. they all adore him. seen in this pic , they are playing with minnie mouse and daisy duck toys we gave her. granny has struck again...

2:00 am

absolutely lovely. Don is a big kid anyway, so looks like a perfect combination there

2:00 am

and, i just received a text message from Blake, another step-grandchild, thanking us for his gift. he wasn't there today.

2:01 am

am glad it was all a success

2:02 am

again lots of laughter, and "in family" jokes. Lisa's two other kids were there and were staggered when they received their gifts from us.they both thanked me beautifully, with no prompting at all.

2:03 am

good to hear it all went so very well

2:04 am

and you my darling... how are you doing? you haven't overdone it, have you?

2:04 am

yesterday was intense. Want to hear my news?

2:05 am

go for it... please... thank-you.... pick the right one....

2:05 am

sa

2:05 am

pick the right one?

2:06 am

hiya Arb, happy sa to you too ;)

2:07 am

right answer to your question...

2:08 am

ah okay. Well, on top of the big news I had yesterday, I have now another one: we have a caravan/trailer already

2:09 am

WHAT !!??!!!... oh fantastic.

2:09 am

if you like, I can tell how things went

2:10 am

stop keeping me on tenter hooks, pleeese. spill all. *wriggles in anticipation*

2:11 am

:P Just asking because nobody listened to my story yesterday! Which was a little frustrating. Okay, here goes.

2:12 am

even though I was very happy about starting the new phase in our life earlier than planned, I was a little stressed about how to make it all work in just 4 weeks

2:13 am

so, rob and I talked about it. Big issues were how to store stuff and where to live between moving out here and receiving the money later... there is a weekend in between, so that makes it later

2:14 am

then Rob got the brilliant idea to put a small heater in the sea container, which will keep the temps above freezing and the moisture out, so everything we want to store can go into the sea container!

2:15 am

and we sat down and looked at trailers, made a list, and drove to the other side of the netherlands to look at a few

2:15 am

keep going...

2:15 am

I called ahead, the guy on the phone seemed a little short and brusque, but hey, who cares, so we went

2:17 am

he turned out to be a very nice guy, who showed us about 8 trailers that had most of the features we were looking for. While checking them out, Rob and I did not seem to agree on which ones we liked best. But then we went back to the ones we liked, gave grades and lo and behold, we both had the same favorite

2:18 am

wow! sooooo....

2:18 am

then talked it over with the guy, and he was willing to accept a downpayment now... AND let us take the trailer home a week earlier than we can pay the rest!

2:18 am

how lovely of him..

2:19 am

so we do not have to live in the tipi for a week, no need for a B&B or hostel, we can move from the house straight into the trailer!

2:19 am

if you like, I can send you the pics from the website.

2:19 am

sprite, that is the best news since yesterdays news...i was really worried for you both.

2:20 am

told you before, no need to worry, we will be fine. I have this underbelly feeling of trust, of faith even. Things will work out. It is amazing how blessed we are.

2:21 am

can't help it sweetie. i am so far away from you.

2:22 am

the guy said to rob that he was looking forward to seeing us after my call, lol. He loved my voice and was interested to see what woman was the owner of that voice. Warm and great, he said, and that I could earn my living with a voice like that. We told him about my volunteer work and he was like: "yep, perfect, that is what I mean". We both think that first impression is what made him offer the week's grace.

2:23 am

rose, the Big Guy is on our side in this. Do not worry. We are going about it step by step and in each step, we find miracles on our way. It is incredible.

2:24 am

i so agree with him. i remember your first phone call here. i nearly fell over don in my haste to get to the phone when i heard you speaking..

2:24 am

:D should do it again soon, speaking in person I mean

2:24 am

not the falling part

2:25 am

and so He should be on your side. i have been telling Him for ages....just get her and Rob safe...and i even say please sometimes..

2:26 am

so there... two days of major news! Now we can 'simply' work through the house and empty it. And... which is slightly daunting... lots and lots of phonecalls to make to arrange official stuff. I will be on the phone a lot in the week to come. But I have faith the Big Guy will be with me in this as well.

2:27 am

lol @ please. Am pretty sure God sits up on hearing that and saying: okay, she means business, I better pay attention

2:29 am

*giggle* and btw, honey, i did comment on your news yesterday. but i was typing my other comment and hit send when i looked up and saw your news.

2:29 am

yeah I saw. Just felt a little lost when we did not come back to it at all. Am probably a little oversensitive atm.

2:31 am

i'm sure you are. and antsy too... lots of adrenalin happening i think..how is Rob going with it all?

2:33 am

pretty good now. A lot of worries have disappeared now, with the heater and the trailer. Work is still a big issue with him, things are not good there. But I keep telling him: be true to yourself, and remember that in a few weeks we are no longer hostages to your paycheck, there will be room for working less hours or in a lower paygrade or whatever.

2:33 am

do you want the pics?

2:33 am

yes please.

2:42 am

se4

2:42 am

have to go soon sweeie. dinner is ready. luvsya. and thanx

2:43 am

enjoy your dinner, my friend, and maybe until after. Am a little over halfway now

3:01 am

((Sprite))

3:01 am

*hugs zooz* Hello dear man! A happy new year to you, may you find friendship and health and happiness throughout the year.

3:02 am

how are you doing? And how are the parents?

3:02 am

And to you too, Sprite! Thank you for the email it was lovely :-)

3:02 am

glad it reached you okay.

3:03 am

I am holding up father has been very ill with partial heart failure and other complications but is now home from hospital. Mother is doing her bess seeming she is not well either.

3:04 am

wow, that is worrisome, about your parents. How is your father doing now?

3:04 am

Sorry should of been a fullstop after the word up.

3:04 am

well, you are holding up your father, and your mother, so that is true too ;)

3:05 am

He is very weak but in good spirits to be honest. Which is good. He now has a wee bag to deal with but he seems happy about that.

3:06 am

that is great, that his spirit is still strong. Sorry about the bag, but glad to hear he is not feeling bad about it.

3:06 am

I hear you are moving on the 1st of February! I bet the nerves will be kicking in about now bless you.

3:07 am

they do, yeah. But knowing we can move straight from our house into the trailer, and we can store all our stuff in the container, makes for peace of mind for sure.

3:08 am

Oh that is good news! Off to the supermarket to get lots of boxes. Packing packing and more packing!

3:09 am

exactly! Emptying the house is now our priority, plus arranging for all services to stop, insurances to start or be adapted, etc etc etc. Lots of phonecalls to make.

3:09 am

Wow! Exciting news!

3:10 am

((Lizlin))

3:10 am

3:10 am

3:12 am

3:12 am

That ET 5 & 6 has been in the last three grids.

3:13 am

True - good observation

3:13 am

yeah, we are on a roll there

3:14 am

Has it cooled down for you yet, Liz? I know Rose is getting very high temps.

3:15 am

how are you and your beloved doing, Liz?

3:15 am

The temperature is much more moderate here, Zooz. We’ve had temperatures in the high 20s but it’s been pretty humid.

3:15 am

We’re fine - we’ve got family here.

3:16 am

Not too bad then. That is good,

3:16 am

We get some days higher than that but it’s not the norm.

3:16 am

Nice! Hope you all have a great time together!

3:17 am

how lovely to have your family over, Liz!

3:17 am

Sorry got a bit of lag here.

3:17 am

Yes it’s been great. All back to normal tomorrow. Hubby’s son and partner - lovely seeing them.

3:18 am

:D nice to be able to catch up in person, isn't it

3:18 am

I will be going now. Very nice to see you both. Say hello to Rose for me! Happy babbling everyone!

3:18 am

Sure is.

3:18 am

have a great day, zooz, and take care *hugs*

3:19 am

Have a good day Zooz

3:22 am

darn just missed him.. *sigh* but have been looking at your pics sprite. major wow factor.

3:22 am

not bad, is it? A bit too blue, lol, but we can live with that.

3:24 am

love the blue....you could tone it down i suppose. like keep a pretty lace cloth on the table.

3:24 am

and it has one of those tent things you can attach to the front... not sure what they are called in english. Makes for a lot bigger area for living. And one of those mover things, so that you do not have to maneuver the trailer in place by car.

3:25 am

it is called an annex.

3:25 am

thanks, will try and remember!

3:26 am

how was dinner?

3:27 am

yummy. wholemeal wrap with a little butter chicken, cucumber and raita in it.

3:27 am

Time for dinner. Congrats Sprite and hugs both.

3:28 am

3:28 am

enjoy dinner, Liz, and the company. *hug* to you both.

Ruby, we got a little Aerogarden for Christmas and there is lettuce sprouting. It's so fun to be growing things in winter.

5:46 am

l'm growing sedum in the kitchen, the flowers i cut all for roots and are even flowering>>>>>>>. i'm forcing a Hiacinth and last Week it looked like Durer's,"Praying hands"

5:47 am

sorry, that was garbled. the cut dlowers got roots and are flowering again

5:47 am

That sounds nice. I want to try flowers in the Aerogarden after we have a few rounds of salad stuff. Right now it is lettuce and tomatoes, but the tomatoes are not up yet.

5:48 am

How tall is the container?

5:49 am

The container itself is very small. But the plants grow in water, not soil. The light extends upward as the plants grow.

5:49 am

l wish i couldmail you some sedum as i have about 20 with roots and no place to put them

5:50 am

Those are pretty plants. Nice for you to have some of nature's color inside for the cold months.

1:52 pm

monkey i miss Tyson's Corner Mall:(

1:52 pm

I hate malls they give me headaches!

1:53 pm

Where did you have lunch?

1:53 pm

natasha yes we know mall is a 4 letter word:D

1:53 pm

I can handle Tysons if we go EARLY, and leave after 1 hour or so. We had lunch at Coastal Flats, it is awesome.

1:53 pm

My mom & I, and 4 of her friends. I was the DD.

1:53 pm

Yes I've heard that is good... I just can't handle the massive roads and traffic in NoVa

1:53 pm

Is Coastal Flats new there?

1:54 pm

No it's been there for a while.

1:54 pm

At least 10 years.

1:54 pm

Yes Natasha I haaaaaaaaaaaaate the traffic here.

1:55 pm

You are a good daughter to do that!!

1:55 pm

I come up here about twice/month.

1:55 pm

Let me know if you'd like to meet up sometime :)

1:56 pm

That could be fun!

1:56 pm

this se8 is brought to you by the now cancelled (boo!) series in netflix

1:56 pm

monkey that is what my mom says the traffic has gotten worse over the years

1:57 pm

sorry don't watch Netflix and i don't have that word anyway:)

1:57 pm

dcseain lives up this way also

1:57 pm

true

1:58 pm

Oh, so does dan2bit

1:58 pm

I have it but don't get how it's being used here :-)

1:58 pm

I don't have that se8

1:58 pm

The house is about de-Christmas-ed!

1:58 pm

no surprise there's a big DC area contingent, this area attracts former spelling bee champs and choral singers en masse

1:59 pm

We've had some get-togethers over the years.

2:00 pm

rotfl natasha one year i was third to go to the state champion spelling bee. Most of the kids who win that are foreigners

2:00 pm

MLFan, the noun form of the se8 word is more popular.. it means a feeling

2:00 pm

so se8 is the past tense of se7

2:00 pm

got it, sandbox!

2:00 pm

I don't know what that has to do with Netflix, though.

2:00 pm

Not sure "foreigners" is the right term - they're all American citizens

2:01 pm

isn't it sed not a set or am i way off?

2:01 pm

My son was in the state National Geo geography bee finals and it's true it was dominated by kids from immigrant families, but to me that is precisely the beauty of America.

2:01 pm

lil*monkey there was a science fiction show with se7 as a title but with the end part becoming a number

2:02 pm

Oh OK, thanks sandbox! I was clueless on that.

2:02 pm

natasha the National Spelling Bee htat airs on tv has a variety of kids on it

2:02 pm

But they're all Americans...

2:03 pm

MLFan, way off, you begin at the se from the last S on the second row

2:04 pm

another meaning of the noun form is if something is a fad... as another clue the last part of se7 is a homonym of a number

2:07 pm

2:07 pm

2:08 pm

2:09 pm

the first four letters and then a homonym of a number

2:09 pm

ends with the past time of consume

2:10 pm

MLF, the last 3 letters also meat injested some food

2:10 pm

2:10 pm

Hi Nef

2:10 pm

Hello everyone. :-)

2:11 pm

hello Nef

2:11 pm

Finally found my last 8...8 left...

2:12 pm

Nef I was just reading your profile, how are your hubby and your brother doing

2:12 pm

Hi MLF & lil*monkey & all. How are you all doing today?

2:16 pm

lil*monkey, Hubby has a foot brace because his mild foot drop has caused repeated tripping this year; & last night he told me he's worried because his memory is getting worse. Luckily, he hasn't had an infection (which always ends up with him being hospitalized) for a year now (I need to update that part).

2:17 pm

I work in a Rehab, I'm a PT assistant. I'm hoping the AFO is helping him walk more safely! Sending prayers and good vibes.

2:19 pm

My brother has now lost over 100 lbs & looks like a skeleton. His breathing is a problem, he's on BIPAP full time now & has had a couple of close calls. I've been out to see him 4 times this year; he's still very optimistic but he's so much worse every time I see him. :-(

2:19 pm

Aww so sorry. Its a terrible disease, sending prayers for him also.

2:21 pm

It does help him walk better; but he doesn't remember to put it on; so I am continually reminding him of that. As for my brother; I told him that (in a way) he's lucky I don't live closer because I'd be hounding him continuously to do ROM exercises (he has pretty awful contractors now).

2:21 pm

I have at8, en8, se8 and ty8. What are the other ones pls.

2:23 pm

I only have an se 8 and a te8

2:23 pm

de7.32 & 8.50...en7.32 & 8.45 are my contribution

2:25 pm

OK so i'm missing de8, te8 and something else.

2:26 pm

2:26 pm

ah! thank you Is1

2:29 pm

2:38 pm

I have at8

2:38 pm

Got all the 8s now. Thanks! I still have 102 left.

2:39 pm

hi lynxxxcan you clue the de 7/8?

2:40 pm

mlf, it has to do with teeth, ends with the past te5 of to consume.

2:40 pm

to do with teeth - ends like the no6/7

2:44 pm

got them ty

2:46 pm

ty ofr the no words too

3:21 pm

any clue for that st8?

3:22 pm

kje, narrowing of the spine, plural form of the word

3:22 pm

ty!

3:22 pm

I love it when there's medical words :)

3:22 pm

I haven't found it yet, kje. (I'm working on it now)

3:22 pm

haha - easy to clue to other clinicans

3:23 pm

nef, build off the st5 that means taking shorthand

3:23 pm

DUH!! (I need to READ the chop, too!

3:23 pm

yes indeed, kje

3:28 pm

Moneky, you still here?

3:28 pm

yes

3:28 pm

Does your momma live by herself?

3:29 pm

Yes, but in a senior condo bldg.

3:29 pm

So it's independent living, but with some supervision.

3:29 pm

I have 7 left...all ssss...I'm ssss-ed out...going to the list...

3:30 pm

I have 98 to find.

3:30 pm

That's wonderful! We had to move my momma in with us this summer.

3:31 pm

How is it going, Bzzn?

3:31 pm

It's going well. She is so easy to live with when she is feeling well.

3:32 pm

lil* monkey, does she like it there? We're on the verge of trying to decide to move ourselves; I'm trying to decide between a regular condo & a senior condo

3:33 pm

She has COPD and is on O2 PRN during day and at anytime she is sleeping, needs some joints replaced and has recurring bouts of CDiff.

3:34 pm

I know you didn't ask my opinion, Nef, but I would go towards a senior condo so the neighbors would be of like mnd.

3:34 pm

(((Bzzn))) That's enough that it would be worrisome if she's living alone!

3:35 pm

She was staying in bed about 22 hours a day while living alone. Depression, grief...

3:36 pm

Worrisome when she was 1500+ miles away.

3:37 pm

Yes my mom likes it, she has made several friends here. There are lots of activities. Movies, going to museums or shopping, speakers, art exhibits, etc.

3:37 pm

Buzz, I was first looking at assisted senior housing; but once I saw the price; and then saw that the quote we got was for 1 person only and everything to "assist" a person cost extra -- well, we changed our minds!

3:38 pm

Bzzn, 1500 miles away is forever!

3:38 pm

Thanks, lil*monkey; that's good to know.

3:38 pm

It is so important for them to be active and interactive, don't you think, monkey?

3:39 pm

It's working well for my mom.

3:39 pm

My mom wanted to go into assisted living at first. I told her I wouldn't pay for someone to take care of her whie she slept all day. Brutal, I know, but it shook her up and out.

3:40 pm

You are so right, Bzzn. My hubby is so dependant on me right now for everything & I think if he could socialize more it would help him a lot.

3:40 pm

She was always brutally honest when I was growing up. Nut doesn't fall far from the tree..

3:41 pm

Nice, Bzzn! ;-) Nothing like a reality check, huh?

3:42 pm

Why was she spending so much time in bed? Poor nutrition, depression, lonely, or ???

3:42 pm

My mom is dependent on me and Hubs for socialization right now. But that is better than what she had.

3:42 pm

Yes., nef. All of the above.

3:43 pm

okay. How old is she, Bzzn?

3:43 pm

ps

3:43 pm

And the only family near to take care of her were only there to get $$

3:43 pm

She is 79.

3:43 pm

Is there a senior center nearby she could visit?

3:44 pm

Yes, and I've asked her about that. She doesn't want to hang out with "old" people. =)

3:45 pm

When she is feeling well, I can get her out to volunteer work with me. But it has been a while...

3:46 pm

I kind of tricked 1 of my hubby's aunts into going to a local senior center with me when our kids were small (35-40 years ago!) They had mittens they were selling there; I made her come with me to find the right pairs for my kids; and the women there welcomed her in.

3:47 pm

The holidays were really hard. Now that the first ones are over, I hope it will be easier next year.

3:48 pm

if she was staying in bed at her old home; she didn't have any friends close enough to encourage her to get up & out?

3:50 pm

She had a couple of friends, but they were all dealing with their own stuff. She has never been a social person unless it related to work or family.

3:50 pm

And she doesn't want to "ask" for anything...including a lunch date...

3:51 pm

Do you have much family nearby for her to see often?

3:53 pm

Not here in NC. We did make a trip back in Oct. That was really hard for her. We have family lined up to visit this summer. That will be good. Most of her grands facetime her often. That helps. She didn;t have that capability until she moved in with us.

3:56 pm

My last word...st7/32...Glad that is over...

3:57 pm

That's great. I see my grandson FaceTime with his mother every so often (my son is divorced; his ex is mentally ill). FaceTime really helps him (& I hope it helps her too; -although sometimes I'm confused because they may have long "phone calls" but don't talk!)

3:58 pm

Yay, Bzzn!!! WTG!!!

3:58 pm

Interesting they don't talk but still stay on the phone with each other...

3:59 pm

Makes since though. When you are in person, you don't spend the entire time talking to each other, do you?

3:59 pm

Just a comfort for each to know the other is there, I think.

3:59 pm

Oh! So they do the same as my grandson & his mother!

4:00 pm

Hmmm. I never thought about it that way....

4:02 pm

I have been impressed with your ability to take what comes, Nef. You have a lot on your plate and you seem to handle it well.

4:02 pm

I still have 172 words left to find;

4:03 pm

Big Hugs to you, Nef. I'm off to watch football...bzzz...

4:04 pm

Bzzn, thankfully, I've never been depressed; overwhelmed at times; but never depressed.

4:05 pm

Bye, Bzzn. Take care of your Mom & good luck with her!

4:22 pm

Finally, half way! (Now I allow myself to list). I'm such a lazy toad today; I don't want to do anything except Babble!)

4:27 pm

Playing babble is better than croaking

4:30 pm

LOL, ru!! You're so right!

4:35 pm

under 200!

4:39 pm

Ru, you are the funniest guy in Babble chat. You make everyone laugh. : D

4:40 pm

Go, Jen!

4:40 pm

It is all about timing molly 😄

4:42 pm

And your audience : D

4:43 pm

There is a certain serenity in that

4:44 pm

Herein lies the truth

4:44 pm

And yes, ru is funny. (sorry, I got distracted there)

4:45 pm

We are just crossing hairs on this are we?

4:45 pm

Ty nef. I try to have fun here

4:46 pm

You just said that caust you want to be funny, you joker you

4:46 pm

And you do make it fun. I just wish I could keep up with you when you pun! :-)

4:52 pm

It is hard to keep up with Ru. On but two accounts and more

4:53 pm

You have that backwards man!!

4:54 pm

It is hard to keep up with him. I usually just sit back & watch & smile when he's got someone who can keep up with him.

4:56 pm

I do, I do. It's hard to keep up with all the differences

5:19 pm
