Victoria Day (French: Fête de la Reine) is a Canadian statutory holiday celebrated on the last Monday before or on May 24 in honour of both Queen Victoria's birthday and the current reigning Canadian sovereign's birthday.
While Victoria Day is often thought of as a purely Canadian event, it is also celebrated in some parts of Scotland, particularly in Edinburgh and Dundee, as well as in the Cayman Islands, where it is also a public holiday.

What is the bucket list, 1Mar?
1:53 am
loredana
ooops you might not get that do you have a tv programe from the UK called keeping up appearances?
1:53 am
Just1Mar

1:53 am
sprite
lolllll god yes. With Hyacinth. Mrs Bouquet!
1:54 am

1:54 am

1:56 am
Just1Mar
"kicking the bucket" is a colloquial expression for dying in North American parlance spritey
1:56 am
sprite
All cheer for me. I found the at-the-ocean word all by myself for once.
1:56 am
loredana

1:57 am
Just1Mar

1:57 am
sprite

1:59 am
Just1Mar
I also d/l'd the movie..academy award winner...No Country for Old Men...
1:59 am
Just1Mar
but that may be too sombre for tonight......
2:01 am
sprite
I never watch sombre movies. I don't need things that make me feel worse.
2:02 am
sprite
well, things are lightening up. Hubby is up, is sorry about yesterday and eevn though he slept lousy, he is in a much better mood. Good man.
2:02 am
Just1Mar
well I still like a well acted and directed movie.....
2:02 am
Just1Mar
great ! wonderful spritey!
2:02 am
loredana
my grandson took me to see Spiderwick that was a good movie!! and we are waiting for eddie murphys latest one here in july will enjoy that one
2:03 am
sprite
I know, 1Mar. I realise I am missing out on some really great movies. But I just cannot handle more sadness.
2:03 am
Just1Mar
well I don't think this is a sad movie...much more of a provoking one...
2:03 am
sprite
it is an old movie, but so great... did any of you see "Frequency"?

2:07 am
sprite
same here.
2:07 am
Just1Mar
ditto :D
2:09 am
sprite
did I tell you my hubby finally agreed to have a doggy come fall? He told the kids, they are so happy. And we approached some breeders with a list of carefully thought-out questions. Got some stupid reactions, some good ones and a very good one from a breeder that is only 30 minutes away from here!
2:10 am
sprite
sorry, managed to get myself into the sin bin yet. Any goodies in th5?
2:10 am
VolleymomDee
wow sounds like a great plan
2:10 am
loredana
yay Sprite so pleased for you and the kids!!!!
2:11 am
Just1Mar
a dog (although I've never had one) is such a joy
2:11 am
sprite
yes, this is going to be fun. Only problem is, the dogs are more expensive than I had expected. But we already saved quite some money, so I guess we will just have to save a little more.
2:11 am
Just1Mar
unconditional love and loyalty..
2:11 am
loredana
sure is just1 they are just loving loyal and beautiful
2:11 am
Just1Mar
even a mutt from the spca would be wonderful
2:12 am
Just1Mar
many purebreds can be very tempermental...
2:13 am
sprite
it will be good for all of us. 1Mar, I need a dog that is lightweight, well-natured, one that can walk a long time but is also happy with a 5 minute's walk at times... cannot chance a rescue dog, even thought I would love too.
2:13 am
Just1Mar
I'm sure you will find the right one just for you and your family spritey!
2:14 am
sprite
we decided upon a King Charles Cavalier Spaniel. From a good breeder who checks out the parentage of the dogs for the inbred illnesses.
2:15 am
Just1Mar
best of luck spritey...and although I'm not that knowledgeable, I would think that summertime is the best time vis a vis housebreaking...
2:15 am
loredana
high maintenance Sprite but adorable little creatures that become very close to their family my girlfriend breeds them
2:16 am
sprite
oh wonderful, lobo! They are darlings, aren't they. And high maintenance... well, only in cuddles and attention and brushing and such. They are also very happy to be lazy at times, like all spaniels :)
2:17 am
loredana
yep thats right!!!
2:18 am
sprite
I will confess I look forward to the daily grooming. I love brushing and combing animals.
2:18 am
loredana
sounds like the perfect choice !!!
2:19 am
sprite
and they are small and light, but they are DOGS. I love that too.
2:21 am
Just1Mar
I shall bid you all adieu with my 60 left.......hoping your day will be happy, peaceful and stress free!
2:21 am
sprite
same to you, 1Mar! *hugs* to you and I enjoyed having your company for a while!
2:22 am

2:31 am
sprite
woot, sounds like a tough one. So far all is going well he4, but I am only at 88 left.
2:31 am
VolleymomDee
was moving pretty well, but slowing to a stop lol
2:32 am
sprite
I think Douglas said the same thing
2:32 am
VolleymomDee
still even missing 2 q's... lol
2:33 am
sprite
I only greyed out a W and an H, lol.
2:36 am
sprite
ok, found my missing Qs. If you need help, let me know.
2:36 am
VolleymomDee
wow unusual for you sprite; you are pretty speedy
2:36 am
VolleymomDee
okey dokey
2:37 am
sprite
I have good days and bad days. Not per se related to the difficulty of the grid, lol. This is not one of my good days!
2:37 am
VolleymomDee
awww, so very sorry to hear that!~ Anything special that is making this a tough one?
2:39 am
sprite
bad night, burnt-out hubby who was quarrelsome yesterday, kids with some minor problems at school, very sore body. Nothing big, just not easy to handle with almost no energy and slightly less patience ;)
2:40 am
sprite
but at least hubby is no longer looking for a fight today, so things are lightening up.
2:40 am
VolleymomDee
makes sense, when everything seems to be happening all at once.... causes overload! That's a positive move then! Is your waning energy still related to that flu you had?
2:42 am
sprite
no, though that did not help things. It is related to my living with ptss for whole my life and not knowing it. I have lived on my will power alone for so long, that I exhausted myself. Got severely depressed, burned up etc. And I am physically handicapped, which does not help things much. Will take years to find my way back.
2:42 am
VolleymomDee
hi el
2:42 am
sprite
hiya Elsh! Good to see you! *hug*
2:42 am
Elsh
hey sprite, good to see you too! *hugs back*
2:43 am
VolleymomDee
you have seemed to make improvements, though, since I have know you, sprite! Big Hugs.
2:43 am
sprite
how are you doing today, Elsh?
2:44 am
Elsh
Oh, really not good. One of my rats is dying.
2:44 am
Elsh
How about you?
2:44 am
sprite
True, Dee, I have! And I can honestly say that the depression is under control for the most part. Provided I don't exhaust myself again, and things don't get too hectic. But for the rest, I can see the sun again, and count my blessings.
2:44 am
VolleymomDee
So delighted to hear that!
2:45 am
sprite
oh darn! I am so sorry, Elsh! Having pets dying on you is so sad. Is he ill? Or very old?
2:45 am
Elsh
He's ill.. I think it's cancer.. had other rats die like this.
2:46 am
sprite
am really sorry, Elsh :( *big hug* for you.
2:46 am
Elsh
thanks very much
2:47 am
VolleymomDee

2:48 am

7:32 am
AsGreen

7:33 am
AsGreen
I had my twins that way...I guess it jumped out at me!
7:33 am
LadyNatts
don't know why it's named after julius.
7:33 am
AsGreen
oh, thx flosey - I'll look for that too
7:33 am
EspritdJean
I heard an interesting explanation for that ce procedure
7:33 am
LadyNatts

7:33 am
Scrabbler

Hi Scrabbs
7:34 am
Scrabbler
I saw newborn twin boys yesterday when I made hospital rounds--delivered by C-section. Damn cute babies!
7:34 am
AsGreen
can't monkey the ce flosey...will move on for now
7:35 am
LadyNatts
no doubt, asgreen!
7:35 am
LadyNatts
scrabbs, we were just talking about c-section... seeing as how there are 2 words on the grid that describe it
7:35 am
Scrabbler
How are you recovering, Jandy? 100% yet?
7:36 am
Jandy
They do make pretty babies... not so squished!
7:36 am
Scrabbler
I found them as I entered the chat just in time.
7:36 am
LadyNatts
hehe...oh good
7:36 am
Jandy
Oh yes thanks Scrabs.... just beginning to feel like a bit of a fraud with two more weeks of sick leave to go. I think that's a good sign. Still be careful about lifting, but that's it!
7:37 am
AsGreen
fortunately I have twins, and not qu5/18 (off the qu4/8)
7:37 am
Jandy
Indeed... and thanks!
7:38 am
flosey
does anyone have a clue for that aa word?
7:38 am
AsGreen
oooh, I think I said I word when I was talking about my to-do list - a summer place that my kids are going
7:38 am
AsGreen
there's an aa? thx flosey
7:38 am
sukee
Good morning.
7:38 am
Scrabbler
We have several sets of triplets in our practice--very neat to have them lie on the exam table in a row when they are babies, and then to watch them grow up. We have one set of triplets in which a pair are identical twins.
7:38 am
lynxxx
aa5 past tense of a sigh of relief
7:39 am
AsGreen
got it - thx lynxx
7:39 am
Scrabbler
TY for that clue, Green
7:39 am
sukee
Can anyone give me a clue for the 1st ar 5/10. I have tried everything I can see and it's driving me nuts
7:39 am
Jandy
Thanks lynxxx!
7:39 am
EspritdJean
I guess no one wants to hear my c-section explanation
7:39 am
flosey
thank you lynxxx, and yes, relief
7:40 am
Jandy
What an interesting experience for the third baby, Scrabbler!
7:40 am
Scrabbler
Please tell us, EJ.
7:40 am
lynxxx
Sukee - a latin plural of the space
7:40 am
AsGreen
oh, I'd like to he4/5 it! (you said a word btw)
7:40 am
Jandy
Yes please!
7:40 am
EspritdJean
in ancient rome, an emporer's power was gauged on number of citizens
7:40 am
sukee
Thanks...for some reason I was looking for a 2point word...never mind...
7:40 am
LadyNatts
that's why julius comes into it?
7:41 am
EspritdJean
if it was apparent the mother was going to die, it was incumbent to save the baby, so it could be counted as a citizen
7:41 am
sukee
2 point letter that is
7:41 am
EspritdJean
the end
7:41 am
sukee
wasn't Caesar himself delivered by Caesarian?
7:41 am
Jandy
Ahhhhh...... I like that explanation better than the fact that Julius was born that way... which seemed unlikely
7:41 am
LadyNatts
sukee... penalty box
7:41 am
AsGreen
helloooooooo, words, ladies, words!!
7:42 am
EspritdJean

7:43 am
sukee

7:43 am
sukee

7:43 am
kje

7:43 am
Jandy

7:43 am
Scrabbler
I was just thinking about what to have for breakfast. I had Raisin bran yesterday and it had a frightening effect on my GI tract all afternoon.
7:44 am
sukee
I'll be having either an English muffin or oatmeal

Dachef

11:52 am
SharonRA
qu 8 is like what real men don't eat, plural, with an extra vowel as the first vowel

QU8 = QU + ac**** and pains, only toss another vowel in after the A

But Maltese are smaller [toy dogs], and have wavy, rather than curly hair. Bichons have bigger frames and very study, but they share amiable natures

DE works well on soft-bodied creatures, the spiky bits annoy them. Doesn't work well in a rainy area, though. So we use that in the summer to create a barrier around the beds, and hand-pick the slugs that are inside. That works okay most of the time. But not on really large areas (like where I have my hostas)
3:17 pm
Uneaixoise
ants and certain wasps eat grubs . . . but you don't want those either!!
3:17 pm

no they're not the same... grubs are larvael form of beetles

3:19 pm
evanonut
the don't eat my hostas either...i wonder if my hostas are some kind of vile poisonous hybrid?
3:20 pm

The problem with panicking over "grubs" is that some of them are beneficial. You don't want to just kill everything, because the plants need some of the critters to do well.
3:20 pm
Uneaixoise
i don't have a deer problem, just evil squirrels and chipmunks . . .

I don't know Une -- a side effect of her working is that we rarely have time to speak at all! Even though I work with her three days a week!

I looked up fire ants on google and these seem to be significantly smaller (the ants) than fire ants
3:21 pm

damned squirrels
3:21 pm
stidmama
And ants aren't necessarily bad in a garden... so the garden center will know what they are and whether they are a threat to your plants.
3:21 pm
Uneaixoise
that's like with ants--i don't like them, but they enable all my beautiful peonies to open
3:21 pm

Will grubs go after vegetable seeds, or do they just prefer grass?

What do you do for cicadas, Une? row covers?
3:21 pm

grubs eat roots
3:21 pm

sharon its a game you play acting out words without saying anything but singular and the 8 is the plural
5:08 pm
