Jellen

No, I have a chronic condition. :-)

12:12 am

lynxxx

me too Jilli - don't know why it doesn't accept it...I thought it was a knitting pattern - not a Brand

12:13 am

Jellen

Should I be concerned about a loudly snoring cat?

12:14 am

jesdraggon

is it a new thing for the cat to snore?

12:16 am

i'd guess the snoring is because of congestion then, if he's got a chronic upper respiratory problem.

12:22 am

MonkeyMind

yay kiwi!

12:22 am

jesdraggon

how many litter boxes do you have? ever try changing litter type/brand? sometimes they'll associate the box or sand with the discomfort of the infection/crystals.

12:22 am

Jellen

Oh Franny, I've never had to deal that!

12:22 am

MonkeyMind

wow. that's interesting jes..

12:22 am

jesdraggon

make sure you have multiple boxes, preferably in multiple rooms, and try several different types of litter to see if he likes one kind more

12:22 am

jillibus

I have nothing bigger than a 5!

12:23 am

MonkeyMind

hmmm. still missing one of the 7's

12:23 am

jesdraggon

if he has a place that he regularly pees now, either block off access to it, or put a litter box there.

12:23 am

saintfranny

hmm Diff kinds of liter in each box. hadn't thought of that

12:24 am

jesdraggon

pick up or block access to anything even remotely litter-like (laundry, recycle paper, newspaper, shredded paper, the hermit crab cage/gravel...)

12:24 am

jillibus

greyed the top O

some cats don't like to share boxes (dunno why that'd be a new thing if he's always been fine with sharing before, but it might be)

12:25 am

herinfernallady

I am owned

12:25 am

saintfranny

well, i'm thinking i should quarantine him in the bathroom for a while, while i Clean up his mess - need to soak all the furniture cushion etc in Hydrogen Peroxide - heard that works best, and soak couch covers in baking soda - yes?

12:25 am

bleach or hydrogen peroxide is best for getting rid of the smell, no ammonia cleaners.

12:26 am

jillibus

hello corps

Did your state survive Burning Man, geek?

12:27 am

jesdraggon

might also try getting some of the synthetic pheromone spray to spray your couch and whatnot with, as that can decrease urine marking

12:27 am

Ornith

hi all, how is tonight's puzzle?

12:27 am

saintfranny

but he's been doing the peeing Long before this. and what's up with him going on the kitchen table??? like, On things that are on there - papers, other stuff.

12:27 am

herinfernallady

I used Pura cat litter its great. It clumps vertically so you can easily poop a scope it out.

12:27 am

saintfranny

pheromone spray. ok. we tried one of those things that plug in - did nothing.

12:27 am

GroovyKiwi

good eve orn happy babbling

12:27 am

GroovyKiwi

not too bad here only 90 left

12:28 am

MonkeyMind

saint....he could be pissed at you (pardon the pun)

12:28 am

saintfranny

clumps Vertically? interesting. at the grocery store herin?

12:28 am

MonkeyMind

and papers on a table are similar to kitty litter

12:28 am

jesdraggon

hard to say, saint. maybe he likes paper? try putting shredded paper or a paper-based litter in one of the boxes maybe

12:28 am

jillibus

i use Febreze when my cear old cat makes a mistake

12:28 am

jillibus

dear, that is

12:28 am

herinfernallady

Saint its at pet stores.

12:28 am

saintfranny

lol monkey. but thing is, he's the Most affectionate of all of them... climbs in bed next to me and nestles in for a good nuzzle, etc

12:28 am

Jellen

Hi, Ornith

12:28 am

jesdraggon

hmm. the stuff i'm thinking of comes in a spray bottle. called Feliway. you spray it directly on the couch or wall where he's urinating.

12:28 am

12:29 am

marking you?

12:29 am

Geekmeister

pigeonman - Timie to wake up...

12:29 am

jesdraggon

is he neutered?

12:29 am

Ornith

I use World's Best Cat Litter (yes, that's the brand name) - corn based so safe if they eat it off their paws, clumping, flushable, pretty good odor control

12:29 am

jesdraggon

are all the other animals neutered?

12:29 am

saintfranny

i need to write some of these brand names down!

12:29 am

jesdraggon

does he go outside at all or is he strictly indoors?

12:29 am

saintfranny

yes, all are neutered, as is he

12:29 am

saintfranny

Strictly indoors

12:29 am

jesdraggon

heh. just go to the store and buy one of everything ;)

12:29 am

Ornith

you definitely need something to clean away the smell (they make special products) - DON'T use ammonia-based anything, that smells like cat pee

12:29 am

jillibus

ornith -- that sounds great

12:30 am

jesdraggon

then keep the brand the cats like best :)

12:30 am

saintfranny

LOL no lie jes! i literally think i just might!

12:30 am

herinfernallady

I will use the same litter for a week and scoop the clumps out ever day. I use the little tie sanitary bags to put the kitty stuff in it (also stinky proof)

12:30 am

herinfernallady

Jes i do that with cat food

12:31 am

saintfranny

no, i know ornith. i recently learned about the hydo. perox. a cat person told me that stuff like nature's miracle isn't so good b/c sometimes the cats Like that scent

12:31 am

GroovyKiwi

ok 75 to go brb best i feed the family

12:31 am

Ornith

yeah jilli, I'm really happy with that - that and febreeze and I only have to mess with it once a week, no smell even in my studio apartment

12:31 am

saintfranny

herin - sanitary bags? what's that? b/c OY it does smell bad sometimes

12:31 am

FranMag

later kiwi!

12:31 am

jesdraggon

if all else fails, you can rip out all your carpet, put in linoleum or laminate flooring, only have wooden furniture, and make sure you clean everything every day ;)

12:32 am

herinfernallady

Um lady's sanitary disposable bags. Kinda like a little nappy bag

12:32 am

herinfernallady

Jes did you just get another new pet?

12:32 am

Ornith

sometimes a cat will pee in weird places because he's upset, or because he's sick, or because the litter box isn't clean enough - anything new like that?

12:32 am

jillibus

if utmost is a word, why isn't unmost?

12:33 am

Geekmeister

pigeonman, any moose in the yard?

12:33 am

12:33 am

12:33 am

jillibus

oh, should have said utmo4 and unmo4 -- sorry

12:33 am

saintfranny

Ohhh jess. not a good solution! lol. Herin - where is that sold? am i out of it to not know what you mean?

12:34 am

jillibus

but it's two, MM

12:34 am

Ornith

I've never seen them either franny, maybe they don't have em here

12:34 am

jesdraggon

yeah. Minnie, the one-eyed-wonder-dog

12:34 am

MonkeyMind

i know jilli...but for us it should be one :)

12:34 am

herinfernallady

Awwww Jess is this another 'reject' that someone left at the clinic?

12:35 am

jesdraggon

why not a good solution, saint? it's basically what i've done... i hate trying to clean carpet!

12:35 am

saintfranny

herin - like, is it something sold where you buy "lady products", in that aisle?

12:35 am

jillibus

homer will just have to do, MM

12:35 am

jesdraggon

not exactly. one that wasn't being cared for, in huge part because of money.

12:35 am

herinfernallady

Yep its in the lady products isle.

12:35 am

MonkeyMind

yep jilli

12:36 am

herinfernallady

I needed a small tieable non stinky bag and thought 'nappy bags but smaller'

12:36 am

saintfranny

well we don't have carpet, just some rugs, one of which i've already thrown out. about ready to replace the other one too actually. found a cheap one in the kmart ad i actually like. and frankly we May have to get new furniture!

12:36 am

jesdraggon

so if all that stuff doesn't change things, i'd suggest getting a referral from your vet to a behaviourist.

12:36 am

jesdraggon

or deciding that he'll be an outdoor cat, at least during the day :(

12:36 am

MonkeyMind

let's call this CatChat and DogBlog

12:37 am

saintfranny

well, you Def. gave me some good ideas Jes. i really appreciate it. the different litter is something i'll do Tomorrow!

12:37 am

Ornith

heck, just bring him to the vet, he might have something wrong with his digestive system, that can cause that sometimes

12:37 am

Geekmeister

pigeonman - Moose alert!!!!!

12:37 am

saintfranny

Oy - i just don't believe in outdoor cats jes. i live in a sub. neighborhood, and there Are outdoor cats around us, but, i could never.

12:37 am

Ornith

making him an outdoor cat is a bad idea

12:38 am

saintfranny

lol monkey - works for me since i've got so many of both! hope the non-dog and non-cat people haven't minded for a little bit

12:38 am

herinfernallady

Jess at least you have a happy home for the dog

12:38 am

MonkeyMind

stuck at 106. night peeps!

12:38 am

jesdraggon

i don't like it either. but if it's a choice between that and destroying all your stuff, you know...

Saint what about an outdoor kitty run?

12:39 am

jesdraggon

maybe try confining him to a section of the house away from the other cats, see if he still sprays when he is an "only cat"

12:39 am

carra

hi carra

12:40 am

jesdraggon

as long as he has someplace warm to get to, they can do fine outside most places. or put him out in a run during the day and bring him in at night.

12:40 am

carra

Hi Jill

12:41 am

carra

was so excited.. got into the tents for fashion week in nyc :)

12:41 am

saintfranny

yeah jes - that's why i think putting him alone in the bathroom for a few weeks is a good idea. i mean, he'll see US a few times a day at least

12:41 am

saintfranny

interesting about the run - like something we'd Build, or does like Dr. Fosters sell it?

12:42 am

herinfernallady

12:42 am

12:43 am

saintfranny

12:44 am

jesdraggon

also, if you have a fenced yard, there are places that sell adapter things for the top of the fence that are supposed to keep cats from climbing over... 'course, that assumes your fence is good enough that they can't go under or through it.

12:45 am

herinfernallady

12:45 am

I have a great German stew recipe that you cook for 5 hours... use one bottle of Killian Red for thickening, golden mushroom soup, Lipton's onion soup mix, potatoes, carrots, onions, stew meat that has been dredged in flour, salt, pepper, then braised in vegie oil, fresh garlic, parsley cooked slowly on top of stove in cast iron dutch oven

1:15 am

FranMag

wow, that sounds good. what's killian red? a beer?

1:15 am

jillibus

I make a great stew in the microwave

1:15 am

VolleymomDee

dash of cayenne pepper for "heat", water added if beer doesn't keep potatoes "wet" enough

1:16 am

GroovyKiwi

i have a really great one that uses frozen schnitzel, oxo cubes, onions, carrots and a crockpot lol

1:16 am

VolleymomDee

yes, a beer that makes a gorgeous color of broth/gravy

1:16 am

VolleymomDee

I don't think we have frozen schnitzel here, sounds good

1:16 am

GroovyKiwi

its just the schnitzel cut of beef = the really thin stuff

1:17 am

VolleymomDee

didn't know that, thanks! sounds good

1:17 am

jillibus

well, I have at least one word for each available tile and eyes are slamming shut so night all!

1:17 am

MVA

making me feel hungry!!

1:17 am

FranMag

1:17 am

GroovyKiwi

1:17 am

FranMag

GroovyKiwi

1:19 am

FranMag

1:19 am

FranMag

1:20 am

GroovyKiwi

that i dont have lol

1:21 am

FranMag

we'll probably get on sooner or later, my husband and I always look at them when we go shopping.

1:23 am

FranMag

jellen, you're always talking about foraging for your meals, it's no wonder you don't use your crock pot. :-)

1:24 am

Jellen

I just can't get motivated to cook for one.

1:25 am

FranMag

jellen, did you see that book i recommended to jilli? it's on my to-read shelf: alone in the kitchen with an eggplant

1:26 am

Jellen

I saw the title. Should I check it out?

1:26 am

FranMag

it was on a cooking blog i read, supposed to be short stories about cooking for one with recipes.

1:26 am

FranMag

it reminded me of the times i used to housesit for people

1:26 am

Jellen

Putting on my to-read list now.

1:27 am

VolleymomDee

kiwi do you cook your stew on low?

1:27 am

FranMag

Jellen

1:28 am

FranMag

1:29 am

GroovyKiwi

oh gee fran have fun lol

1:29 am

VolleymomDee

I'll have to try that. Do you ever use the new cooking bags for crockpots? My brother loves them, says their claim of no clean up is 100% tr4/5

1:29 am

Jellen

Bye, Fran. Good luck with that! lol

1:29 am

GroovyKiwi

well i didnt know they did them - dont think they have arrived over here yet lol

1:29 am

FranMag

thanks everyone! i'll report back later! :-)

1:30 am

GroovyKiwi

dee have you done meatloaf in a crockpot?

1:31 am

VolleymomDee

very new here... he said in Pittsburgh they cost $2.47 US for 4 of them, but they were worth every penny. No, I never have... saw what you said earlier, and was thinking about trying it. Do you use same recipe as oven?

1:31 am

pigeonman

fireworks

1:31 am

VolleymomDee

wtg

1:31 am

GroovyKiwi

woohooo wtg pigeon ^5 - im about 25 behind you lol

1:31 am

Jellen

Congrats, pigeonman!

1:32 am

GroovyKiwi

$2.47 is about $5.00NZ not too bad i guess

1:32 am

pigeonman

Pretty good for me. Started a half hour late. 210 words in 1 hour 1 minute. (Pats self on back)

1:33 am

VolleymomDee

impressive! He hates clean up and has zero time, so said it was worth it for him (also cooking for one)

1:33 am

pigeonman

Anyone need a clue before I go?

1:33 am

GroovyKiwi

1 meatloaf recipe - 2 eggs (i usually use 3) 2 slices bread ripped into small chunks 2 pounds hamburger (mince for us lol) 1 small onion chopped milk as needed salt and pepper to taste kethup on top

1:33 am

GroovyKiwi

ketchup lol

1:34 am

GroovyKiwi

beat eggs add bredcubes. Add enough milk to moisten all. Season. Add hamburger and onion, squish all together with hands.

1:34 am

pigeonman

Is it ketchup or catsup? I've seen it both ways. Are they both correct?

1:34 am

rururocks

the ar 6 24 pigeon

1:34 am

GroovyKiwi

place in crockpot, flatten and pour ketchup on top - enough to cover completely. Cook on slow for 8-10 hours.

1:34 am

GroovyKiwi

either way is fine

1:34 am

GroovyKiwi

sometimes we even use barbeque sauce for the kids

1:35 am

VolleymomDee

sounds similar to mine... just use tomato paste in lieu of ketchup and a little worchestershire; I'll try the crockpot; sounds like a great idea. You don't add any water for crockpot?

1:35 am

pigeonman

Same first three letters as the word before it. Then letters that usually have to do with peeing.

1:36 am

pigeonman

Lousy clue, but the best I could come up with.

1:36 am

GroovyKiwi

nope no water

1:36 am

pigeonman

Gotta run. See you all Friday. Luck to all.

1:36 am

VolleymomDee

Hi Hydra

3:17 am

tragicstud

very appreciated

3:17 am

tragicstud

it seemed like it for a bit there :)

3:17 am

tragicstud

5 silent minutes are long silent minutes in here

3:18 am

hydra

I'd been zapping in the words and not reading the chat and suddenly I saw your plea for company!

3:18 am

tragicstud

but it's like staying up to read... atleast i had the grid to keep me company

3:18 am

lynxxx

is does get quiet at this time - till the UK contingent arrives

3:18 am

tragicstud

:)

3:18 am

tragicstud

it's noon there, isn't it?

3:18 am

hydra

OMG, am I the only Brit on the grid? Seems like it.It's 9am here.

3:19 am

lynxxx

It's 6.00 pm in Aust

3:19 am

tragicstud

interesting... it's only a 5 hour difference

3:19 am

tragicstud

wow- and i didn't realize it was a 14 hour difference between here and aus, though... it's big place, there's a few time zones, no?

3:20 am

hydra

Why are you still up at 3am stud?

3:20 am

tragicstud

dogs needed to pee

3:21 am

tragicstud

4am

3:21 am

hydra

How many do you have?

3:21 am

lynxxx

Yes, we are the size of the US. Soon we go into daylight saving wich will confuse it a tad more

3:21 am

tragicstud

and then i wanted to tell my alaskan friend about a date i went on

3:21 am

tragicstud

1 dog, 1 pup

3:21 am

tragicstud

i should change my pic to them

3:21 am

hydra

Ooh! Was it a good date?

3:22 am

hydra

Sorry. I'm being nosy!

3:24 am

tragicstud

don't apologize, i brought it up!

3:24 am

tragicstud

i think it went well...

3:25 am

tragicstud

it's kind of hard to say because she was the most comfortable person i've ever been around - which means that she either returns the feelings or is actually just the nicest and most amazing humans

3:25 am

tragicstud

ever

3:25 am

hydra

Hope so. Then you can change your name to happystud!

3:26 am

tragicstud

heh- nah... i'll always be tragic

3:26 am

tragicstud

too big a heart

3:26 am

hydra

Ah! Sweet!

3:26 am

lynxxx

3:26 am

tragicstud

hydra

Must go and start work. Will pop back later. Yes, it's hard lynxxx

3:27 am

tragicstud

bye hydra

3:27 am

tragicstud

have a good day

3:27 am

lynxxx

Sounds like a good date Tragic - either that or you have a great new friend

3:28 am

tragicstud

yeah- i've definitely gotten one or the other... and had an entire evening where i didn't compare the experience to what it was like to be with my ex

3:28 am

tragicstud

which is even better than having a great new friend

3:28 am

tragicstud

i've been working hard for that experience to happen

3:28 am

lynxxx

that definately sounds like progress!

3:29 am

tragicstud

and, friend or otherwise, this woman was beautiful

3:30 am

tragicstud

and it's never a bad thing to have spent a few hours with a beautiful and brilliant woman

3:31 am

7:58 am

Fiber Art

"unate"--threw up

7:59 am

Atalante

i have 2 words to finish

10:58 am

These words sometimes make no sense. If you are bare, as in nu**, how can you be more bare?

10:58 am

Merk

Go, Anne, go!

10:58 am

Merk

I still have 63 left

10:59 am

Judi

Alas. Some words make no sense. "Bodum" is a word, but it's not be accepted here. It's a coffee thingy.

10:59 am

inge

OK I chose sedate blue icon, for today. yes the nerf ball is exactly that

11:00 am

Merk

Is it a brand name that they don't recognize it here? They recognize a lot more odd things than nerf and smurf.

11:00 am

inge

Just to keep us guessing, Merk

11:01 am

carleekat

hey all again

go anne..go anne

11:01 am

Fiber Art

"bede" is a word, too. As in The Venerable Bede

11:01 am

Judi

Nerf is a brand name. Bodum is not, so go figure. Just like some foreign words are allowed, but others aren't.

11:02 am

Fiber Art

like some arcane piece of African money

11:02 am

Merk

And I try bede everytime it's in the grid. :-)

11:02 am

Fiber Art

11:08 am

Niamh

I wonder if the grid would take 'farout'

11:08 am

inge

or try bo + what you put gramsp ashes into

11:09 am

Niamh

"farout" was not found in the dictionary

11:09 am

inge

probably two owrds

11:09 am

Merk

I think I am going to need a clue for the re 5,14. I've wasted quite a bit of time searching for it.

3:58 pm

Sandieangel

has anyone got that be5/16 plz?

3:58 pm

ch1212

Sometimes the healthiest gift a person can give themselves is distance from family members who are 'sick', so to speak.

3:58 pm

sprite

I couldn't agree more, ch.

3:58 pm

KnightTime

be 5.16 = rhymes with a bug but uses the second 3rd consonant

3:58 pm

KnightTime

be 6 is plural

3:59 pm

sprite

Sandie: be + first 3 letters of erase on a computer.

3:59 pm

ch1212

3:59 pm

Sandieangel

Ty so much for that.

3:59 pm

KnightTime

ar 6.24?

4:00 pm

ch1212

NO WAY! A person who is a caretaker of a building. Wow. Would never have guessed that.

4:00 pm

sprite

in dutch it would be a little thingy to hang from an armband.

4:00 pm

ch1212

really, sprite? That's interesting. That definition actually makes a bit more sense with the construction of the word. Thanks.

4:01 pm

lynxxx

ar6.24 what you hand is on + to be certain or to be ***e

4:02 pm

lynxxx

oops!!!! ar6.24 what your hand is on + to be certain or to be s***. Sorry

4:02 pm

sprite

4:03 pm

Nef

4:04 pm

sprite

ch1212: check this out for an image of the be5. But beware others: the word is on that page.

thanks, sprite -- brb

4:06 pm

ch1212

How pretty that looks. I don't normally wear those, but I could make an exception :)

4:07 pm

sprite

ch1212, Ata says the english word is charm bracelet :)

4:07 pm

sprite

if you scroll down to the bottom one, it tells about a very nice custom!

4:08 pm

ch1212

Indeed it is. The example in that photo uses the 12 astrological symbols - very pretty. (goes back to look up the custom)

4:08 pm

72 Temple Owl

is it related to chatelaine?

4:08 pm

sprite

I love this community, lol. Where el4 can you find other people who love to look up something just to know :)

4:09 pm

4:10 pm

meliae

4:15 pm

greenbayladi

clue for be 4/8 please

4:15 pm

ch1212

Sprite, I translated the text -- what a delightful custom, though I wonder if some of the charms are not acidentally swallowed in the cake?

4:15 pm

sprite

ch1212, the translation (roughly) : Victorian brides give their bridesmaids and friends charms during the ceremony. (American custom). The silver charms, tied on a satin ribbon, were hidden in little cakes or petit fours. Each charm symbolises a hidden blessing. A heart for love, a telephone for good news, a rocking chair for a long life, a church for a happy marriage, a wishing well for wishes to come true, an anchor for future travels and a pineapple for friendship and hospitality.

4:15 pm

lynxxx

lice is the plural of lo5.12 though

4:15 pm

sprite

lol, yes I think they might have been, ch :D

4:16 pm

lynxxx

be4.8 is what you sleep in and last vowel

4:16 pm

Atalante

a pineapple for friendship and hospitality? interesting!

4:16 pm

ch1212

Thank-you Sprite -- your translation was much better than my poor effort, though I did understand the gist.

there is something about that 50 mark (my friend's husband had a bad stroke at that age & but luckily he is better than ever now, much more like his old 20 year old self, when i first met him, more carefree, less stressed

5:24 pm

and as counselor, it's my role to help everyone with their feelings... some of the kids, but mostly the staff... on and off all day, talking about it.

5:24 pm

Dorens

glad he recovered, hk

5:26 pm

helenkeller

oh dorens, i don't envy you at all, how tough, i kind of think it would be nice if that could be handled the same way that a dog's death is handled with kids - you know, how the dog was just sent off to "the farm" & is living a better life - i suspect it's easier to handle the concept of 'the farm' than the concept of 'heaven' for kids

Jacula

Meant, not mend! (Unless there really was a cake!)

6:16 pm

aknitter

my car would not shift properly afterwards. the man at the garage told me that sometimes that type of crash screws with the cars computer. they will run a test or 2 on it tomorrow and let me know the cost of repairs. it needs obvious body work

6:21 pm

Jacula

Too silly? How can Babblechat get too silly?

6:22 pm

6:49 pm

speaking of goodreads, if anyone wants to do the book club thing, we're doing that on there too. i just got my copy of the meaning of everything tonight and have started! i'm so excited. i 've always wanted to do a book club.

6:53 pm

Jacula

hursh - feather was covered with baby sick and she ran through the log to share it with us all, saying, 'If I'm miserable, you lot should be, too!' or words to that effect.

6:53 pm

hurshy

yes but feather is one of those perfect angelic looking mothers who have hardly any troubles, i can sense it

6:53 pm

featherbee

i'm just feeling the love coming from the west stid!

6:53 pm

featherbee

6:53 pm

featherbee

6:54 pm

featherbee

6:54 pm

Jacula

feather - well, I see you didn't self-electrocute. I hope you didn't strangle your eldest either??

6:54 pm

Jellen

Congrats, Flask!!

6:54 pm

pam

It's a great book--I LOVED it when I read it!

6:54 pm

stidmama

actually, just remembering, feather... no matter how hard I tried when I had newborns, there was something out of place or "extra" on me -- a burp rag, "something" wet/gooey, or just my lactation working overtime. I hated it.

6:54 pm

evanonut

homerun isn't a word???

6:54 pm

FranMag

yay flask!!

6:54 pm

featherbee

rarely perfect hursh. i'm a firm believer in not spanking, but i've had huge urges to do so frequently!

6:54 pm

stidmama

although, I suspect others didn't notice it as much as I did.

6:55 pm

FranMag

nope nutty

6:55 pm

hurshy

dogs think everything is a scratch and sniff

6:55 pm

featherbee

nope, all's clear!

6:55 pm

hurshy

i like this song on this bread commercial

6:55 pm

Jacula

Feather - I won't be joining in the book club thing where we all read a given book. I have hundreds (really!) of books stacked up to read and what I read and how long I take to read it depends on my mood/life etc. I will take an interest in the club but not join in so far as joint reading is concerned. xx

6:55 pm

6:57 pm

pam

I like the Target a lot, hursh!

6:57 pm

Mary

rh5 & 6 pls?

6:57 pm

featherbee

i just dont' want anyone to not join our group at goodreads just because they don't want to do a book club thing. i'm all about the looking at the friend's lists!

6:57 pm

lideola

ok i am breaking down and asking for a clue for the en5/12

6:57 pm

6:57 pm

lideola

arthritic, Mary

6:58 pm

pam

I need to do a list...

6:58 pm

stidmama

I like the lists, I like the reviews, I am treating goodreads as "jump in when I have time and inclination"... LOL

6:58 pm

Jacula

Feather - leak pads? Yuck! I remember those. Walking around with what looked like 2 teabags down my bra... clearly visible through a tee-shirt. Damned things sticking to your nipples... sore when you peeled them off. AArgh! The joys of motherhood! Woman next-door also had a baby around same time as I had my 2nd... we each used to wake up when the other's baby cried AND we leaked.

6:58 pm

featherbee

77 left and just starting the list here

6:58 pm

stidmama

would you believe the rh clues gave me the NE? LOL

6:58 pm

stidmama

go feather go!

6:59 pm

featherbee

lol, you have a vivid memory jac, because you describe it perfectly! what was *really* fun was the day i realized i had the sticky tape on one of them stuck to a nipple.

6:59 pm

FranMag

stid, they should also give you the FRs.

6:59 pm

lideola

en5/12?

6:59 pm

6:59 pm

FranMag

lid, start with a word for last a long time and take the D away

7:00 pm

featherbee

i've got a great supply, which is wonderful for pumping, but awful for leaking

7:00 pm

FranMag

i found the gerber brand pads didn't stick and were very absorbent.

7:00 pm

evanonut

oy! what's this about tape on nipples? jeepers!

7:00 pm

featherbee

i like johnson and johnson, haven't tried gerber...will have to look into them.

7:00 pm

pam

I had a fungal infection on my breast--a rash, by the way, is a sign of a particularly fast-growing breast cancer--so they took me right in for a scrape--that was pretty bad, too, as I recall...

7:00 pm

featherbee

was wondering when you'd notice the chat nut!

7:01 pm

stidmama

OD 5 please? unless it's a fish...

7:01 pm

featherbee

a....scrape??? *shudders*

7:01 pm

lideola

the Lansinoh ones were crap too

7:01 pm

evanonut

ga ga ga ga ga ga....*eyes cross*

7:01 pm

featherbee

you know, this chat thing is slowing the word thing down for me...

7:01 pm

FranMag

stid, it's like those ne, rh and fr words

7:01 pm

hurshy

marty tried to eat my nipple once...

7:01 pm

featherbee

OW! hursh!

7:01 pm

evanonut

7:01 pm

stidmama

*sticks fingers in ears and sings* NA NA NA NA can't hear any more baby talk....

7:01 pm

hurshy

or maybe he was trying to nurse, i shooed him before i could tell for sure

7:01 pm

stidmama

thanks fran!

7:02 pm

Jacula

Just the dried milk sticks like hell and pulls the skin off! You mean they put sticky around the edges of the pads now?? Aargh!

7:02 pm

featherbee

yeah, i'd have shooed him halfway across the room!

7:02 pm

FranMag

yw stid!

7:02 pm

hurshy

i thought it was pretty funny actually, and if he was trying to nurse, i think it's sweet that he knows i'm his momma :)

7:02 pm

stidmama

poor marty... just trying to bond... LOL

7:02 pm

evanonut

thanks, now i never will have children

7:02 pm

featherbee

no, it's a one inch square of sticky tape, covered with a backing. i never take the backing off, just stick them in there, but the tape worked its way free one time.

7:02 pm

Jacula

NO MORE TALK OF NIPPLES, SKINNED NIPPLES OR BABIES! Word clues only... LOL

7:03 pm

featherbee

it's one thing when a baby bites, but baby teeth aren't nearly as pointy as cat teeth!

7:03 pm

pam

LOLOLOL JAC!

7:03 pm

featherbee

*stifling laughter over here*

7:03 pm

FranMag

Feather - please tell me you DON'T nurse your cat???8-/

7:04 pm

FranMag

*pointing finger*

7:04 pm

featherbee

nooo, that was in reference to hurshy and marty!

7:04 pm

featherbee

actually, it's jac's fault with her vivid recollections...

7:04 pm

Jacula

Phew!

7:04 pm

FranMag

that's true, i just realized it.

7:04 pm

evanonut

this is by far one of the most effed up convos i

7:04 pm

stidmama

the BEST birth control I think is open and honest talk about what being a mother is all about... and the cute baby clothes don't even begin to make up for the getting up twelve times a night because you can't hear the baby breathing in the crib right next to you!

7:04 pm

evanonut

ve ever seen in here

7:05 pm

stidmama

I am done with RE words, down to 33

7:05 pm

featherbee

lol, ok, no more nipple talk! i swear!

7:05 pm

hurshy

what is so cute about baby clothes??!?!?!?!?!!! ah well.

7:05 pm

Jacula

I take the blame entirely. BTW, that sticky tape stuff can be a shocker in other places where pads are worn, too. NUFF SAID.

7:05 pm

featherbee

we cosleep, so the night thing isn't too bad. in fact, he slept 5 hours for the first time last night!

7:05 pm

featherbee

yeah, no kidding jac! been there, done that.

7:06 pm

evanonut

makes me glad how unlikely it is i'll ever make one of those noisly messly little piles of wrinkly skin.

7:06 pm

hurshy

i would just like to point out that between their few really pointy teeth, cats have very very tiny harmless teeth...

7:06 pm

lideola

how about engorgement? anyone get that?....whew I thought my breasts were going to choke me

7:06 pm

featherbee

grid? what grid? oh yeah, that one!

7:06 pm

stidmama

we coslept with the second from day one, with the first after a couple months. It was safer than me dropping him every night as I sat next to the crib!

7:06 pm

Jacula

... got the bald patch to prove it, too, I'll bet, feather.

7:06 pm

stidmama

I didn't have breasts, I had cataloupes....

7:06 pm

featherbee

daniel spent exactly one night in the crib, after that it was cosleeping all the way

7:07 pm

Jacula

stid - Oh yes. The new baby noisy breathing... and then they suddenly go quiet... Nightmare time.

This is the truth about motherhood! LOL. Mind you, if you've never had a gret cleavage before, now's the time you'll have one.... would be wonderful if you could squeeze your saddlebag hips and blancmange belly into a slinky low cut dress and not mind the wobbly bits and the leaky teabags in the chest part... v. sexy.
