and * hugs * my dearest sprite. a peaceful night had by all?
hello my darling. Yes, ROb is sleeping like a baby. I am awake often in the night, and usually for a while. But that is normal.
how are you guys doing in the heat?
I have permission from my vicar to worship the A/C.
lololol call it the ruagh and you are set
i am guessing you are going to have to reset your body clock after ye4s of lying there waiting for Rob's next breath.
I wake up because of the pain in my body. SNAFU
btw?? that breathing issue i am having?? my CCf has decided to rear it's rather ugly head. i started a quite moist cough, in the mornings. got on the scales and have put on 8kg in the last week. AND my RIGHT foot is swollen. that doesn't happen a lot at all.
that is not good, sweetie. Straight to the doctor.
so i have taken extra water pills as per cardiologists instructions. i do that for three days. if the weight doesn't come down, i'm off to hospital to be dried out.
okay. Unless you get more problems, then straight to doc
absolutely. i promise. drowning is not an option.
no4. Not an option at all.
bbs. have to put meals order before i forget.
okay sweetie
and done. Christmas has me totally confused with the delivery dates. Fortunately i have a Don who can work it out...lol
and the second dose of medication is working rather well..
*giggles* good man Don. We do not celebrate Xmas so we are free from all the stress. Will be cooking two dishes we save for this time of year though. A beef stew and a lamb stew. Dutch for the beef and Irish for the lamb.
ah good. Go pee. :D
thank-you ma'am. * toddles off to the bathroom *
phew. made it. that brought some sweat to the brow, trying to run without running...lol
oh ikr? those quiet desperate moments, lol
* giggle *
now that we live downstairs, we do not have to walk the stairs to go to the bathroom. But to get to it, we do need to climb one step. That one step... sometimes is one too many :)
oh i know that feeling so well. for me it is getting up off the chair.
oh yes!
and silly as it seems, if i walk a little bent over, it seems to take the pressure off.
it does. You get to be so creative, once age starts kicking in...
new word for the dictionary: pupart. Doggie paintings.
very paw pun....lolol

Bad rose. Baaaaaad rose!
*hugs* my darling. Take care. Keep close watch on the breathing etc.
xoxoxox my darling
21 slap you in the face degrees here in DC metro land. Thank God for thermals.
That wasn't so bad! Enjoy!
it's 8 degrees here....hello all...
cold here too not that cold however
our high today is supposed to be in the single digits...
52 here right now but wet
fortunately, I don't have to go out today...
i'm going for a hike if it's not pouring
and then some ex-husbandly duties
i hope you enjoy your hike...
thanks.. hopefully this storm will break.. we've had a ton of rain of late
we are the opposite...some drought....
I had some Bailey's in my coffee this morning to ward off the chill
I haven't tasted Bailey's in years and years
how many calories in a shot of that stuff?
:D
Always worrying about your girlish figure
147 for a shot and a half
do you think my butt is too big?
that's what we used to drink when we thought alcohol was disgusting but we should because we could
we were 14 and in bars, trying to be cool lol
Seriously, I know women who don't think about calories as much as you do, Ru
(drinking age was 14 in Italy when I was a kid, it's 18 now)
14 ? yikes mael
yeah
Laughing at a shot and a half. Ru knows my pour
honestly though? kids didn't go out and get smashed
at all
you probably don't know too many 240 pound women either molly
we just had a few sips of whatever we could stomach (baileys or amaretto) and called it a day
it's much worse in the US where the kids sneak it
240 for your height is not exactly obese
In Italy kids drink wine from the bottle
seriously Ru
it's tubby but only slightly obese I should be 200 pounds
i bet that you're not even tubby
With all that hiking and healthy eating, I doubt it
when I went to the beach in Scotland a bunch of marine biologists put wet towels on me Mael
that's because they were worried, they don't deal with west coast fauna very often
they were concerned you'd taken the wrong at the panama canal. I be they also took you to the pub after
it's when they tried to push me back in the ocean that...
I put a stop to it :D
hah
it's effing freezing in scotland so I hear ya
oh hey I found potato pancakes
it would be now for sure.. I'm definitely going back there
it's currently 9 degrees here in MA
wow.. nippy
our chickens are confused as to why they've been stuffed in a freezer
talk about clutching your pearls
same here mael [ct]
stay warm today!
too many Ps in this grid
heat's cranked up
i keep my house about 66 degrees during the day
When I say cranked up I mean 66
My little HVAC unit has to work to keep it 68 in here.
any higher and my pg and e bills are enormous
see you all later! braving the outside for chores
good luck mael
I have been running the heat so much this month PEPCO is probably going to put a lien on my condo
i know.. my electric bills are insane out here.. and they just keep asking for price increases and getting them.

okay, opinions please...if you asked someone to personalize a blanket with name and designs right before Xmas, what would you pay? (you provided the blanket, so they only have their supplies and time/labor)
50
I was thinking about asking $25 and was worried she would think it's too much. 🤣. Thanks.
It only took me about 2 hours or maybe less.
normal fee X 2
in the craft groups they say supplies x 3 for normal times (i.e. not rush). not sure how to break down my supplies - sublimation paper and ink. I printed 6 pages. how do you even quantify that?
ok, just read $1/page. so that would be $6x3 so $18. I think I'll just tell her $25 and be done.
is there a clue for la5 please?
potato pancake
thank you

pe7 is a kind of flounder, apparently (if anyone was wondering)
dont have that yet. lol
me either
and wondering which of the P's it comes from
Carla, I have been in retail in one form or another for 44 years, and when it comes to hime businesses or side hustles, I reccommend my "33%" rule, and it is as follows:
33%is the cost of your item, 33% is your materials needed and overhead, and the final 33%should be profit. The remaining 1% goes to the retail gods--wherever they may be.
Since the blanket is proveded you remove that cost from the equasion.
So, if a ten dollar blanket (provied) needed ten dollars worth of materials for your sewing work, you would add ten dollars for profit, and charge your friend twenty dollars. This covers your material and your time--assuming it is all "off the books" and taxes are not an issue.
Of course, I may be full of shait, but it is my "two cents worth" such as it is.
This formulae works really well when you are a reseller who likes to cull.the charity shops
thanks!
This; however, goes out the window if you made a quilt that took six months to make because you could never get the money out of it for time invested. You are suck with material costs plus charging what the current market will bear.
Stuck*
Namaste
bye bea
yeah, I have told people they couldn't afford me to make them a t-shirt quilt because those are so time-intensive
Yup, even at minimum wage per hour, a handmade quilt would be thousands of dollars.
That is why when gifted they are gifts from the heart.
yes why I will never get rid of the quilts my grandmother made......all of what would have been her great Great grandchildren got one
Yup, each is unique, and totally irreplaceable.
This grid is kicking my arse! :(
tu6, please?
tu6 sounds like a town in Mississippi
is a town in Mississippi

Interesting, we joined Babble the same year.
Cool!!
thanks
peah
Close!
sorry
Using crossy's formula, carla will be paying herself $10 an hour, approximately - plenty of money!
It is not a perfect formulae, but for resellers it works very well.
Sorry - $5 an hour
($10 for 2 hours work)
does the pe7 come off the pe12 before it?
When I had my gas station I was making one cent a litre on fuel but 300% on a bottle of water--go figure.
Well, I'm guessing you were selling a lot less water
Many would not believe it, but as an agent you basically make nothing on fuel, and have to try and make your living on the c-store.
I bought a 24 pack of water for $2.50, and sold it for a dollar a bottle.
Margin on dmokes was ten cents.
Smokes*
I certainly hope you were managing to make more than $5 an hour - last time I worked for that little, I was in school, and it was many years ago
Gas business was fifteen years of hell. :/
I have no idea about the pe 7
afternoon all
Hiwdy, jes.
Howdy*
I kinda like hiwdy :)
Lol
Love my tablet, but it can be a pain to type on.
oh, i hate laptop keyboards
tablets must be even worse
Irun so warm that if i get my fingers to a half inch of the screen they keys activate.
!!! that would drive me up a wall
i'm the opposite, so cold machines don't believe i'm alive
So I have to be directly over the key before i get close.
My beloved is the same as you, jess. Her hands are so cold that I have to use remotes for her because they ignore her touch.
..but give it five minutes and she is sweating bullets. :)
Imlike to say "Hit and cold enough for you, hun?"
Hot*
heh
On the ither side of the coin, she is fine in hot weather, but I end up a walking heat rash that has to gobble salt tablets.
i just die in heat. apparently even more prone to heat strokes having had one. yay.
pe7, please?
onto
sorry
I already had it...no problem from me :)
then I almost did the same thing on my next word
I still don't have the pe7
sorry freeman, haven't got it either
pe7 starts with animal friend ends with a coughing sound
