2:16 am

vedaman

ty joey. what about an na6/18?

2:16 am

oldhousejunky

na 6/18 - add vowel to na 5/10 after curvy letter

2:16 am

joey

na - kind of sounds like something about a nose. take the na 5 that would be right before it and add a vowel in the middle

2:17 am

vedaman

kthdsn

good morning lovely babble people, once again I need some support

2:42 am

o-o

Good day, kth

2:42 am

jean1953

good morning kthdsn:)

2:44 am

kthdsn

I'm so lost, I don't know what to do

2:44 am

jean1953

How come your lost today kthdsn?

2:45 am

kthdsn

you know the day my husband went missing

2:45 am

jean1953

yes remember that?

2:45 am

kthdsn

did any of you really believe the crap he told me about being too tired to walk home

2:46 am

jean1953

well it sounded plausable with his boss being taken ill, dont tell me hes done it again to you?

2:46 am

kthdsn

he was with a woman, he did it again last weekend, and I think he's there with her right now too

2:47 am

jean1953

oh kthdsn thats not good to hear, have you got concrete proof

2:47 am

kthdsn

he told me

2:47 am

kthdsn

but I forgave him and acknowledged that we had some big problems of our own to work through

2:48 am

kthdsn

only last night he looked me right in the eye and told me he doesn't love me and he doesn't want to keep trying

2:49 am

kthdsn

he didn't come home and he won't answer the phone he bought

2:49 am

jean1953

Then you have to decide what action you want to take, and how you want to deal with this information, maybe you could try and get some mediation help could be you both need to be able to discuss this in a neutral space

2:50 am

kthdsn

I can't wait around for him to decide between the two of us, I'm not being second best, I've decided to go to Canada and be with my mum and my sister

2:50 am

jean1953

Oh kthdsn your feelings must feel like there in a tumble dryer

2:50 am

kthdsn

but there is a lot to work out before I can leave, and I was going to discuss it with him last night when he got in from work, only he didn't come back

2:52 am

kthdsn

I feel completely numb, I've gone into some strange auto pilot mode that doesn't feel like me at all

2:52 am

Iain

good morning all hello Jean how are you today

2:52 am

jean1953

Do you think hes unable to talk to you at the moment? I am not in your shoes so is difficult to say what anybody would do, all I can say is I have been in a similar position and sometimes you need to step back from the situation and not do anything too hasty to begin with, I can understand that numb feeling and its not a good place to be

2:53 am

jean1953

good morning Iain hows my big brother today then xx have you wrapped my chrissy present yet lol

2:54 am

jean1953

I await the postman with relish ( and a hamburger lol) Iain

2:54 am

Iain

usual pressie in th epost for you Do not drink it all at once you know what the Dr said LOL

2:54 am

jean1953

of course Iain yours is in the post lol

2:54 am

kthdsn

we've talked more over the last few days than we ever have in our lives, but now it's more important than ever, I have 3 little girls to protect and he's making it very difficult by not being where he says he'll be

2:55 am

jean1953

Yes it is important to protect your girls kthdsn but remember your feelings are important too

2:57 am

o-o

This may sound insensitive, kate, but you need to protect yourself if you are unsure you can trust your husband. In particular, if the money is in joint accounts, there is nothing to prevent him from taking it all. How are you going to get to Canada if you go? My point is to take steps to insure you are not left destitute.

2:57 am

jean1953

Well I wish you the best of luck with it all kthdsn, unfortunately I have to go as have a busy day today wish I could stay longer may be back later if time permits good point babble

2:58 am

jean1953

must rush bye all and bye Iain and give my love to Anne xx

2:58 am

kthdsn

babble he wouldn't do that to me, he's my best friend and he still cares very much about me, I guess I'm just difficult to face right now

2:58 am

o-o

Bye, jean

2:58 am

kthdsn

bye jean thanks for listening to me

2:59 am

Iain

Bye Jean Anne send hers love.

2:59 am

sprite

Morning all
Is this a self describing grid?

2:59 am

jean1953

Thats no problem kthdsn its good to talk and get other perspectives sometimes we dont always look at it objectively as its too close a call take care chat soon xx

3:00 am

Iain

kthdsn Jean has had experience so she can speak from experience. We wish you well which ever route you choose

3:00 am

o-o

Well, perhaps. Just the same please heed my warning.

3:00 am

kthdsn

thanks iain

3:00 am

o-o

Good morning, sprite.

3:01 am

kthdsn

i know babble, I have taken notice

3:01 am

jean1953

good morning and sprite and bye happy babbling:)

3:01 am

sprite

hi BabbleRabble, hi and bye jean :)

3:01 am

kthdsn

I can't understand how I didn't see any of it until it was too late, how could I not notice that he had fallen out of love

3:03 am

sprite

So sorry to hear about your situation, kthdsn. I hope you will have all the strength and support you need.

3:03 am

kthdsn

thanks sprite

3:07 am

kthdsn

I've lost 7 lbs in as many days, I can't force myself to eat anything, I can't see how I can go on without him

3:09 am

sprite

You can and you will, kthdsn. Only right now it will not feel that way. But you will pull through.

3:11 am

kthdsn

I hope you're right

3:14 am

Atalante

hi all :) and I'm so sorry to hear what you're going through kate :(

3:14 am

sprite

Hey Ata *hug*

3:14 am

kthdsn

ty ata

3:18 am

o-o

Kate, there are no easy answers here. Starving yourself certainly will only make things more difficult. Your children likely already sense a problem. They need your reassurance. Have you called your mother? You need a support system to help you trhough this. His actions confirm his statements. You must procede accordingly.

3:18 am

sprite

Darn - found the 9. I knew they were after me.

3:19 am

Flask1

Morning all.........

3:19 am

Iain

Must go.good luck kthdsn

3:19 am

sprite

I second BabbleRabble's words, kate. You need support, so you can grieve and mourn, and still be able to stand up for yourself and your kids.

3:20 am

kthdsn

yes babble I've talked to my mum, she doesn't have the money to help me out but if I can get a flight I can stay with her for a while

3:20 am

sprite

bye lain

3:21 am

Flask1

Kthdsn, I am so sorry for what you're going thro'......however, please take heed to what Babble said earlier about your bank account......ok you say he wouldn't do that to you and that he is your best friend......Kthdsn, this is not the behaviour ofa best friend....or anyone who REALLY cares!

3:22 am

P.J.

Hi everyone............Hiya Flask

3:22 am

sprite

hi hodag

3:22 am

kthdsn

he can't get to the money, and even if he could there is none to take

3:22 am

Flask1

Hey Hodag......am sending a BIG hug to you.....!!

3:24 am

rolin

kthdsn...on monday you need to open a new bank ac in your name...and start to sift money into it..been there done that

3:25 am

kthdsn

I need his help and support to keep life running while I make my plans, he stays home with the kids and I work, if he doesn't come home I can't work and without my income I can't pay the mortgage nevermind work out how to afford to leave

3:26 am

P.J.

thanks flask,your a sweetie!!!............hi sprite

3:26 am

Flask1

Hi Rolin!
Yes I think you're right......I been there too......a long time ago....and its not funny at all!

3:26 am

kthdsn

our account is in my name already, and like I said there's nothing to take

3:26 am

Andree

me too rolin, kth see a lawyer and get some counselling before you go to your mum

3:26 am

rolin

of course you do...and let him come home..let him be 'your firned'...but look after yourself while hes doing this 'for you'

3:27 am

kthdsn

his boss just called me to see if he could work today but since he's not here, he's gonna call around and try to find him for me

3:27 am

kthdsn

I think he's with her, but I don't have her number and I don't want to speak to her

3:29 am

kthdsn

I met up with her yesterday, I wanted to hear that it was just a mistake and she was sorry and she hoped we could make it work, but she basically told me I'm a shit mother, a shit wife, and I'm "the other woman" in her relationship with him

3:29 am

Flask1

eels

3:29 am

P.J.

kth. it looks like your Babble friends are your support team..............he will tumble and fall,they always do! LOL

3:30 am

kthdsn

thanks hodag, it's nice to talk to people who can see things from an outside perspective, I don't know what I'd do without you all

3:31 am

sprite

we're here for you, but I really hope you will rally some nearby support as well. Some people who can hold you when you cry and can kick your ass when you feel like giving up.

3:32 am

kthdsn

I don't really have anyone close, i have a lot of friends online who are all being great, I don't feel alone

3:34 am

o-o

Do one thing for yourself right now, kate. Go eat something.

3:34 am

kthdsn

I can't babble I feel sick, I'm drinking water that's all I can manage just now

3:35 am

kthdsn

I will try and eat in a while but I can't at the moment

3:35 am

o-o

not good enough. You need food. do it!

3:36 am

dorky

have soup it's comforting but will help with some nutrition too

3:36 am

sprite

It might help if you try and treat yourself like you are one of your own kids. You would never accept it if one of them would refuse to eat for days. Be that firm and loving parent for yourself and make yourself eat something.

3:36 am

kthdsn

I never eat this early in the day, I've got some fruit in the fridge, I'll have some in a bit

3:36 am

sprite

Good! *hug*

3:38 am

kthdsn

I feel like everything is paused til he gets home, I need to talk to him about how we're going to manage things, where we go from here, I feel sick waiting

3:40 am

kthdsn

I wish there was something I could do without needing him but all the plans I want to make need his input

3:41 am

sprite

Which means how you are feeling is totally dependent on what he does or don't. It may sound stupid, but you will feel a little better if you take some action now. Like eating. Doing something for yourself on your own accord - it helps.

3:41 am

3:42 am

3:43 am

herinfernallady

right ill be bck shortly they need food and im the runner tonight

3:43 am

Andree

thats a real pity, just noticed your very young age, some support is needed

3:44 am

kthdsn

I have decided to pack up and go to them, but we need to work out the finances and the logistics first, which is why I need to talk to him

3:45 am

FranMag

hi all, kate, caught up a little on your situation in the log, i'm so sorry!

3:46 am

Andree

hi fran

3:46 am

P.J.

When the time comes to talk to him,get yourself all decked out so he can see what he'll be missing!

3:46 am

FranMag

hi andree

3:46 am

kthdsn

I felt such relief last night, a plan came together when I was talking to my mum, I felt that I was taking back control of what happens to me, but now I'm right back waiting

3:47 am

Andree

wa 6/30 please

3:48 am

FranMag

andree, pale charged particle

3:48 am

P.J.

he knows your waiting and he is playing on it,show him you have a life too!

3:48 am

Andree

good clue fran thx

3:49 am

FranMag

yw andree

3:49 am

sprite

that's exactly what I meant, kate. Taking back some control, however tiny, will help. Do something that will stop your passive waiting and turn it into some more active waiting, *hug*

3:49 am

sprite

Fran said a wo-ord, Fran said a wo-ord!

3:49 am

FranMag

oops!

3:50 am

FranMag

my excuse is i took a break and forgot the words already! :-)

3:50 am

grinnnn Fran :)

3:52 am

kthdsn

now I see a single magpie, one for sorrow

3:53 am

sprite

*sends over another magpie to lift the gloom*

3:56 am

P.J.

Magpie,Magpie,who am I,the one who laughs at you as you fly by....

3:58 am

sprite

you've got a whole flock of magpies flying with you, kate. Hang in there and take some control, you will manage.

3:58 am

FranMag

kate, something similar happened to me with an ex-boyfriend. he started staying out all night with the "boys". it turned out he had met someone else.

3:58 am

FranMag

he left me, married that other woman, cheated on her the whole time they were married

3:59 am

FranMag

he's now divorced from her too...some men just can't stay "in love"

3:59 am

FranMag

it's not you

3:59 am

kthdsn

he doesn't want her though, she was just there when he was down, I'm not even angry about that part, just devastated that he doesn't love me

4:00 am

FranMag

it took me many years to accept that i was better off without him.

4:00 am

FranMag

i think i lost 15 pounds the first week after he left

4:01 am

Andree

kth you should be angry, what he has done is very wrong and as many off us know they will always do it again sometime

4:01 am

kthdsn

I've been trying to loose a stone or so for the last 2 years, suddenly half of it has gone and I don't even care

4:02 am

FranMag

the other woman was just a convenient way for him to leave me...he said that he loved me like a sister (how warped was that?)

4:03 am

sprite

that is telling more about him than about you, Fran :)

4:04 am

Andree

these men move from woman to woman fran but the want you to continue liking them, how warped is that

4:04 am

FranMag

exactly sprite, i know that now. at the time i was devastated.

4:04 am

P.J.

Flask where are you----I am looking for you!

4:04 am

kthdsn

we were going to grow old together, I can't imagine my life without him in it, I don't know what went wrong

4:04 am

sprite

Yeah, I know, been there too.

4:06 am

P.J.

cold

4:06 am

sprite

Kate, give yourself some time. Of course you feel terrible right now and you cannot see a future. You're perfectly entitled to that kind of feeling. Just try to believe you will get through it, even if you haven't the foggiest how or when. Take it one breath at a time and you will get there.

4:07 am

P.J.

oops,thinking out loud again

4:07 am

Jacula

Good morning everyone. Just had a quick read back. kthdsn - ((hugss)) for you. I've been there, too. I have a lovely partner now. I know it doesn't feel like it now but you WILL be okay. Just give it time.x

4:09 am

kthdsn

he IS my lovely partner jac, he's my best friend, he's a part of me, we are perfect together when we are both happy, I don't know how he got so miserable

4:09 am

hey Jac

4:10 am

Jacula

Hi sprite.

4:10 am

Andree

hi jac

4:10 am

kthdsn

I thought if I just tried to show him how happy I am he would wake up and realise how much he cares, he just seems like a shell of himself, like his soul has gone missing

4:10 am

Jacula

Hi Andree.

4:11 am

Jacula

kth - that's exactly how my ex seemed to me at the end.

4:11 am

FranMag

kate, if that's what you think has happened, do you think he would go to counseling or seek treatment for depression?

4:11 am

Jacula

We're here for you, kth. You're not alone.

4:12 am

kthdsn

he won't go, he thinks only crazy people need mental help

4:12 am

P.J.

I,ve been there two(twice)but ,now I am with a special guy we've been together 10yrs. and still very happy...........the sun always shins tomarrow!! If he was that great he would still be there.

'Bye, ursh.

4:58 am

herinfernallady

himself turned up at 7am ish

4:59 am

ConXshun

when you were finally sleeping? was all ok?

5:00 am

herinfernallady

I slept at 530 and huged the teddy and he turned up at 7ish kinda didn't sleep

5:02 am

ConXshun

I htought about you so much. I couldn't sleep myself. and then MY hubby turned up late aswell! 1.30am instead of the usual 11.00!! not as late as yours but a bit coincidental...

5:03 am

kthdsn

at least yours came home

5:03 am

ConXshun

yes indeed kth! I thought about you and your worried eve aswell...

5:04 am

herinfernallady

Oh kath thats not good

5:05 am

kthdsn

he's still not answering his phone

5:05 am

kthdsn

I don't know why he bothered getting one

5:05 am

ConXshun

what, you mean he's not come home again?

5:06 am

kthdsn

I think he's with her

5:06 am

ConXshun

OH NO!!! kth! that's so NOT GOOD! I wish I could do soomething for you!

5:07 am

herinfernallady

Oh i wish i could hunt him down and do bad bad things to him

5:07 am

kthdsn

if you missed the info it's in the log just before 3am, I don't want to say it all again

5:08 am

ConXshun

ok kth!

5:08 am

herinfernallady

oh ok ill go to that.

5:15 am

herinfernallady

Hey im back, oh kate that is aweful. I would love to say tell him to f off and change the locks and take all of his money and make him move out as he has kids wether they are or aren't his as thats just rude and you deserve better

5:17 am

ConXshun

oh kate! i've just read the log! how terrible for you. I can so understand what you're going through. Many years ago, I..... that's a whole other story. Men can be SO STUPID!. He really doesn;t know what he's doing or what he's done. And by the time he realises it'll be way too late.

5:18 am

ConXshun

What you're doing now is the best you can do. Protect your girls and yourself. Do what you can when you can and when you can't, then don't. Actions to take are best in stops and starts. like day and night. bits at a time and bits of rest inbetween.

5:19 am

kthdsn

I just wish he wasn't ignoring me right now

5:19 am

sha

as 5+6 please

5:20 am

ConXshun

Yeah, that sucks too. And it makes it much more difficult for you. But if you can find the strength to just look after your kids no matter what he does or doesn't do, then you'll get through and you'll be stronger in the end.

5:20 am

herinfernallady

male logic is to retrieve to the cave and ignore everyone

5:22 am

ConXshun

Remember the picture making we were talking about some days ago? Right now you probably can't see any picture at all.... and that's ok. But there IS one... and if you can trust that then you will also get support from where the pictures are made...

5:23 am

ConXshun

5:25 am

herinfernallady

opps good

5:25 am

ConXshun

but I've got to go again. I'm seeing a friend of mine in a revalidation centre for the first time in months. She had a brain haemorrage and was found by the side of the road. After a time in hospital she has now moved to a realidation centre and is ready for some visitors.... and I can go today.

5:26 am

kthdsn

anyway, he'll be home soon, I think he's trying to work up the courage to come through the door

5:26 am

ConXshun

this is from lunch a few days ago wolvie. I came back the same day, but you had already gone.

5:26 am

Wolvie

whoa - what an ordeal Con - positive thoughts to her

5:26 am

kthdsn

I hope your friend is ok conx

5:27 am

ConXshun

5:27 am

herinfernallady

5:27 am

Wolvie

5:28 am

ConXshun

So i'll go and get ready. Kath - trust in the bigger picture and all strength to you and for you. You and your kids take priority in your life!

5:29 am

Wolvie

Take care Con - tell her she has people she doesn't even know pulling for her. :-)

5:29 am

ConXshun

you need a new start kth

5:41 am

Atalante

but sometimes you have to do what *you* have to do, kate. for your sanity and health and for that of your children

5:41 am

kthdsn

I trying so hard to eat these damn grapes but I can't do it

5:43 am

kthdsn

maybe if I don't eat anything I'll waste away into nothingness and it won't hurt any more

5:43 am

Atalante

dont eat them then. find some milk, or a milkshake, or something liquid and vaguely nutritoinally. much easier to drink than eat

5:43 am

Wolvie

that won't work for your kids kt

5:43 am

herinfernallady

but you are hurting the girls more by not leaving. It will hurt now but it will be better in the long wrong.

5:43 am

Atalante

and unfortunately, it doesn't work that way .... :(

5:44 am

kthdsn

you're right herin

5:46 am

herinfernallady

no kid deserved to be around a complete arse and no body deserves to be treated worse than poo on a shoe

5:47 am

sha

as-5 +6 please

5:47 am

kthdsn

he's not treating us like crap, he's still putting us first, he's just struggling with his emotions so he's not doing a very good job of being useful

5:48 am

kthdsn

I know I sound like I'm' blindly sticking up for him, but he is still on my side

5:48 am

Katydid0615

how is sleeping with another woman putting you first?

5:49 am

Scrabbler

Good morning Babblers. I am here to do some words and have fun before work.

5:49 am

kthdsn

he didn't set out to sleep with her, they were both drunk and he wanted a shoulder to cry on, he was, in his own stupid way, trying to protect me from the pain he was feeling

5:49 am

Wolvie

hi scrabbler!

Good morning all.

herinfernallady

Oh don't make excuses for him. He doesn't care about your feelings if he did he would have gone to a male friends house

5:51 am

kthdsn

I know I'm worth more than that but I can see that he is trying his very best

5:51 am

o-o

You are in denial.

5:51 am

5:51 am

5:58 am

metaleather

pa7 conference or informal talk, especially between enemies or warring factions

5:58 am

Merk

So far this is a strange grid with that line of A tiles

5:58 am

kthdsn

he's prepared to take on all our debts and more so that I can afford a fresh start with the girls, and he's prepared to stay with me so that life can go on normal-ish until I'm ready to leave, he is doing his best

5:58 am

P.J.

kth. your involving to many people into your troubled life and it is just going to confuse you even more!

5:58 am

Wolvie

you get the 6 with that too merk. :-)

5:58 am

herinfernallady

Been there got the black eyes and partial deafness as a result but no one ever deserves to be treated like crap. Yes it hurts but itll hurt the kids too. SO he bloody should

My head is swimming. I'm trying to keep up with clues, but at the same time reading of poor kthdsn's woes. My head is swimming. I'm lost on the PA clues ... totally. I don't know golf terms, I guess ... only par for the course.

6:00 am

kthdsn

I'm sorry, I didn't mean to drag everyone into my mess, I just needed someone to talk to

6:03 am

Wolvie

ahhhh - thanks harvey!

6:03 am

6:06 am

Wolvie

merk - think of the herb used in cooking, just lose the s in the middle, then put the s on the end for the 7

6:06 am

metaleather

one thing I learned... you have to decide if it hurts more to stay (physically/emotionally/psychologicall
y) than it wll to leave ...

6:07 am

Wolvie

sounds like a plan inge. :-)

6:07 am

kthdsn

I know that unless he can look into my eyes and tell me loves me, I can't stay

6:07 am

Atalante

if *he* has chosen that you can't, its not about *your* abilities, its his choice. don't *you* feel unworthy because of *his* choices

9:54 am

metaleather

I came along

Dorens

Making a long story kinda short, one didn't drop and it turned to scar tissue. They removed it and put in a "fake" one to even him out. It ruptured and caused an infection, couldn't walk for a while.

10:42 am

Wolvie

10:42 am

hurshy

10:42 am

10:44 am

ursh

Most strange creature - like a dolphin with a looong horn

10:44 am

hurshy

google doesn't know anything about spelling. it will find anything, so if anyone anywhere has spelled it differently, it will find it.

10:45 am

Wolvie

Kate, my heart goes out to you. As many in the chat have mentioned, I've gone through it too... 35 years ago. Somehow, I survived and grew stronger as a human being. Prayers and strong hugs.

12:06 pm

kthdsn

I just don't know what to do with myself, I can't eat, I can't sleep, the tv doesn't feel right, I don't care to read, there doesn't seem to be any point in anything

12:07 pm

Wolvie

12:07 pm

hurshy

12:07 pm

hurshy

12:07 pm

Wolvie

kt - just focus on your girls. tht wil be the ticket - and I like hurshy's idea

12:07 pm

kthdsn

we have no hot water

12:07 pm

Scarlet

You're still in shock, Kate. That will eventually wear off and the reality of the situation will make you more determined than ever to move on, and ultimately triumph over a horrid situation.

12:07 pm

Wolvie

jeez - sorry to hear that kt.

12:08 pm

hurshy

can you take a walk?

12:08 pm

kthdsn

no the kids are in bed and he's gone to work

12:08 pm

I am missing a th 5/6 combo it seems

12:09 pm

ARB

Shalom Everyone

12:09 pm

Wolvie

hi ARB

12:09 pm

hurshy

do you like to paint or write or anything? maybe you could try to get out some of your feelings in a creative endeavor

12:09 pm

ren8

Hello ARB

12:09 pm

ARB

12:09 pm

ARB

sooooory

12:10 pm

Wolvie

got that one arb. ;-)

12:10 pm

kthdsn

what would i write, there are no words for this

12:10 pm

hurshy

i know what you mean but once you start to try it kind of just comes

12:10 pm

ARB

It's been along time -- i FORGOT ABOUT THE PROBLEM OF TYPING IN THE CHAT BOX!

12:11 pm

hurshy

there's always the curl-up-and-cry-until-you-fall-asleep-
from-exhaustion option

12:11 pm

ARB

and caps

12:11 pm

Scarlet

You're right... now is the non-thought time... just raw feelings. Perhaps just sitting in the dark, and weighing the positives over the glaringly obvious negative of the whole mess.

12:11 pm

Wolvie

no biggie ARB - just cute. ;_)

12:11 pm

metaleather

kt, something that helped me a bit.... was to draw. it doesn't have to be good and it doesn't have to look like anything specific... it can just be random shapes and/or colors...

12:12 pm

kthdsn

I don't think I could draw right now without tearing through the paper

12:12 pm

metaleather

that's ok too.

12:13 pm

hurshy

have you got any chocolate?

12:13 pm

metaleather

use newspaper and do it in crayon or ink or pencil for that matter

12:13 pm

kthdsn

I'm trying so hard to see a positive, I know there is one, but I can't feel it

12:13 pm

metaleather

if all you want to do is scribble, that is good enough

12:14 pm

kthdsn

I'm exhausted, I might just take the crying myself to sleep option

12:14 pm

metaleather

it does suck kt, and it will hurt for a while... but it is a necessary thing and will bring you peace

12:14 pm

metaleather

eventually, it will feel less bad

12:14 pm

hurshy

i do that one a lot myself kate, the advantage of it is that it requires no effort

12:15 pm

Wolvie

fireworks!

12:15 pm

kthdsn

I really need to do laundry, there are no clean clothes, but I don't think I can force myself to do it right now

12:15 pm

metaleather

that's always a good choice, sleep will allow you time to rest and will give a bit of separation from the immediacy of the moment

12:15 pm

ARB

YAY Wolvie

12:16 pm

hurshy

'sok kate, clean clothes are not absolutely essential.

12:16 pm

Wolvie

kt - I wish there was something i could do to help you.

12:16 pm

Wolvie

any quick clues before I go - must bake some cookies...

12:16 pm

cybernan

Just read the log, and I am so sorry for your predicament kth. I know this is going to sound harsh, but I think it has to be said. From what I have read it sounds like he has been behaving like a heel (sorry folks) -- there is no excuse for cheating -- and you are allowing yourself to beome a victim. As hard as it is, you are going to have to look after your own health and look after your girls.... sorry.

12:17 pm

kthdsn

thanks wolvie, just being there to listen is all you can do and I really do appreciate it

12:17 pm

Wyrd

kt, do the laundry hon, do something, just keep moving

12:17 pm

ConXshun

erm... is it an intrusion to ask for a clue?

12:17 pm

kthdsn

go ahead conx

12:18 pm

Wolvie

I will do that as much as I can kt

12:18 pm

ConXshun

12:18 pm

kthdsn

12:18 pm

Wolvie

wolvie waiting for con's clue request...

12:19 pm

hurshy

yeah, you just have to go through the stages of grief, there is no way around them.

12:19 pm

Wyrd

i agree kt, you are the victim right now and it sucks

12:20 pm

Wolvie

fa la la la la la la la la la

12:20 pm

Wolvie

that is for con. ;-)

12:20 pm

cybernan

I sympathise kth -- I was just trying to get you to fight -- not accept being a victim for your own sake and that of our daughters. It's going to be a tough road for a while, but I'm sure you can handle it.

12:20 pm

ConXshun

i've missed about 30 mins of chat!!! I'll read..

12:20 pm

12:21 pm

ConXshun

cybernan

Where in Canada are you headed?

12:22 pm

kthdsn

Babblers, for days I have been reading about Katie's dilemna, her nearly hopeless situation. Is anyone else thinking along the lines of helping her meet the cost of her flight and three girls to Toronto? Is there a babbler in Toronto, who could set up a fund? Anyone thinking along the same lines could e-mail me at the address in my bio, if you would rather not discuss it in the chat. What a great Christmas presetn we could create....

1:36 pm

cybernan

I agree, inge

1:36 pm

hurshy

i'd like to help inge

1:37 pm

Enomis65

hello all how is everybody and what is the story with Katie?

1:37 pm

cybernan

econ -- look back in the log

1:37 pm

hurshy

i don't know that we need a babbler in toronto - we need a babbler who can set up a place for us to donate on the web.

1:38 pm

hurshy

and we will need to tell her so she can tell us how to get her the money.

1:39 pm

cybernan

what if someone were to set up a trust fund with a bank in Britain that we could transfer funds to?

1:39 pm

hurshy

we should find out if she wants it in a bank in britain, or in canada, or what would be easiest for her

1:40 pm

inge

I was wondering whether we could let her borrow it from her parents whom we would then repay. I am not financially savvy. Could we ask CHj to set up a fund? Good idea nan, just as long as that scum bum doesnt get a hold of it

1:41 pm

hurshy

maybe we could work it through paypal?

1:41 pm

hurshy

we need doc or swmbo or some computer-savvy person's help.

1:41 pm

inge

Should we ask Dr. God for assistance?

1:42 pm

hurshy

i'll pop him a line

1:42 pm

sherb

hi folks :)

kate said earlier that she had found the money... she's planning to travel in January, after she's sorted out a few things...

...but she was asking earlier if there were any Babblers in Toronto...

1:42 pm

cybernan

Perhaps we should find out if she would be able to leave Britain. In Canada she would need permission from the father to take the kids out of the country and his consent to giving her custody.

1:43 pm

Ho Hum

kth said earlier he had given her the money so that she can get to Canada with the children.

1:44 pm

inge

That's good to hear. She said she only needed the passports for the girls to get away

1:45 pm

cybernan

It doesn't sound like there's anything other than waiting for the passports to hold her back, then. I'm assuming that kate is a Canadian citizen

1:45 pm

inge

Dont know of any Toronto babblers. Several of us are in Michigan, even more in Ohio and Upstate NY

1:45 pm

hurshy

oh, lol, i already sent email to doc

1:46 pm

inge

Good Hurshy, even if she has the passage money, we could help her get started in Canada

1:47 pm

hurshy

she may not need his permission, it's her second marriage, so i don't know if he's the birth father to any of the kids

1:47 pm

cybernan

renfield

french for palace owl

11:34 pm

hurshy

cnan, doc doesn't really want to get involved in the project we were discussing earlier, but i was looking at paypal, and you can send money on there to anyone with an email account. i think if kthdsn sets up a new email account and we post it on babanon, it will be pretty easy for us all to help her out (obviously she wouldn't want to post her regular personal email cause of spam.) of course, we'll have to talk to her about it, she may not be willing to accept it, may not feel that she needs it.

LOL at your bio Dr B

11:36 pm

cybernan

see what she says -- I'm not a great fan of pay-pal --- there are several complaints of non-payment or short-payment on the net when you google it -- and we have no way of knowing how much there should be in the account. I would much rather go through a bank if that is possible.

11:36 pm

72 Temple Owl

what's all this talk of kate?

11:36 pm

72 Temple Owl

ren- i don't speak french : (

11:37 pm

lbdawger

11:38 pm

cybernan

at least there is a control there hurshy -- the amount is known to both parties. It was on the payout end that there have been problems. Vendors not getting their money.

11:38 pm

hurshy

kate's husband ... has been... umm... and they are getting divorced... she's 23 with 3 little girls and it's her second divorce! she is moving from england to toronto where her family is as a result and some of us were talking about trying to help her out.

11:38 pm

72 Temple Owl

ty dawg and ren

11:39 pm

renfield

owl a freind is a pa* + the last2 words before i typed pa* - reversed.....:-)

11:39 pm

hurshy

but the trouble is, if we go through a bank, do you think people who want to donate would have to know the account number? that wouldn't be good...

11:40 pm

72 Temple Owl

won't her family help her?

11:40 pm

cybernan

I'll as a banker friend if it is possible to set up a trust fund account that can receive money transfers through interac.

11:40 pm

ikeyak

11:41 pm

pa 8/9 combo -- mental disorder --- everyone's out to get you!!!!

11:41 pm

hurshy

i'm sure they will, TO - but i'm not sure if they have a lot of money, and we just kind of wanted to... i don't know, as a christmas sort of thing... be a part of helping her. but she may refuse it, anyway.

11:41 pm

hurshy

we haven't talked to her about it yet.

11:41 pm

lbdawger

ikeyak, plural form of mental illness...fear that everyone is out to get you.

11:42 pm

ikeyak

thanks lbdawger

11:42 pm

hurshy

i mean, when i think about it, i don't think i would accept it unless i were literally going to be living on the street otherwise...

11:42 pm

72 Temple Owl

oh i see

11:45 pm

hurshy

well, didn't that just put a damper on the chat room

11:46 pm

hurshy

11:49 pm

72 Temple Owl

same here

11:49 pm

cybernan

Hurshy, if Kate's mother could set up a trust fund for her at a Toronto bank, all we would need to do is publish the name of the bank and the name of the account. Babblers could then go to their own bank to make a deposit in the trust fund account.

11:49 pm

hurshy

add vowel TO, and add cons for another.

11:50 pm

ikeyak

lbdawger

se+ liquid that falls from the sky, drop the n, se+***ly round the bar boys, se+line or a *** of corn

11:52 pm

hurshy

well, we'll ask her what she thinks.

11:53 pm

hurshy

it is kind of funny that trust funds are called trust funds when a lot of them are set up because there is reason to distrust someone.

11:54 pm

hurshy

hey is the babble clock lined up correctly now?

11:54 pm

lbdawger

actually, i think they were originally set up to be entrusted for the care of a minor til they came to their majority

11:55 pm

hurshy

i know, lbdawger - but it's like because you don't trust the parent not to spend the kid's money in the meantime, or just that you can't trust the kid not to spend it unwisely until they are of age. i mean it does make sense but if you think about it a certain way it is ironic.

11:55 pm

melonheadjujube

hi! i'm back! it all went well - must relinquish 'puter to the kiddies but may return after da flip.

11:56 pm

renfield
