wb mrP

1:30 am

rururocks

do you drip him or just perk him up monkey

1:30 am

MonkeyGames

ill improving but still not fully well. The test showed NO mono. So now it's a mystery. We have an appt at our regular doctor this afternoon... he's back from vacation.

1:30 am

MonkeyGames

Hee, hee.! Actually I padded him out. We have a Senseo coffee pad machine.

1:31 am

MonkeyGames

STILL improving, not ill improving...

1:31 am

sprite

ah, good, regular doctors look in a different way. Still improving is good :)

1:32 am

MonkeyGames

Improving is good. And I have made the moral decision that I will not put him through more blood tests or something just to see what this has been. I will comply if the doctor thinks we should get mroe tests, but I won't do it just to attach a name to this past few weeks.

1:32 am

sprite

ah, I found an ending. Now things are looking up.

1:33 am

sprite

very wise, MonkeyG. Follow your heart and good sense after you have seen the doc.

1:34 am

mari

mrP how did lickity sort out the problem - he's not paying for anything is he?

1:34 am

MonkeyGames

I guess I'll have him look at my back too, but I don't know what he can do since my insurance doesn't cover physiotherapy.

1:35 am

flosey

good evening everyone

1:35 am

mrpresident

hi mari, no he isn't... google pages will be taken down any day now

1:35 am

MonkeyGames

Hi Flosey!

1:35 am

sprite

let him look anyway, MonkeyG. And go from there.

1:35 am

sprite

hi flosey :)

1:36 am

MonkeyGames

Yup. Not like I can hide it anyway, the way I'm walking, and he's a good doctor so he's want to look.

1:37 am

mrpresident

monkey, you don't have to have insurance for a physio/chiro do you?

1:37 am

sprite

and I thought even the standard insurance in the Netherlands covered 9 treatments, MonkeyG, are you sure?

1:37 am

mrpresident

hi flosey :)

1:37 am

mrpresident

hi sprite :))

1:38 am

chic

hi mrp!

1:38 am

MonkeyGames

Yes. We have the basis pakket through OHRA. I had ten treatm,ents for my neck last year, and found out the hard way the basis doesn't cover it. Right now we can't afford aanvullend.

1:38 am

Oh. THanks Sprite. hi Caitlyn. I will IM her now.

1:56 am

jillibus

hi herin -- what are you thanking me for?

1:56 am

MonkeyGames

I know it's not that much money but we can't rent movies either and I cut my own hair and only buy third-hand clotyhes, so I'm not just being cheap about it.

1:56 am

sprite

I told her you had exciting things going on privately. So I bet she is curious now ;)

1:57 am

jillibus

tough going, eh monkey!

1:57 am

sprite

MonkeyG, nobody should judge somebody else's wallet. You are the only one who knows and that does not make you cheap. Hope things will get a little easier soon.

1:58 am

MonkeyGames

Could be worse, Jilli. We have a very nice apartment in a very good area and I make sure we eat well, seeing as to what I am a cook and all. Just have to seriously prioritize and still have trouble keeping out of our overdraft protection. This too shall pass.

1:58 am

joshuavorbis

aaaaaaaaand fireworks. so much for waking up to babble!

1:59 am

herinfernallady

Jill a while ago you mentioned scanning in pictures. My mum today wanted to send copies to me for my birth mum. Kodak wanted $50 for the privilege. I remembered what you said so now im going to do that

2:25 am

herinfernallady

Hi. just rattled off an Email to Skeiny Thank you Sprite

2:25 am

jillibus

I didn't do much narrating this time!

2:25 am

sprite

yes, I have been thinking about that too, lobo. Only thing is, where do I fit in the text... I want the theme to be visible...
Wait, maybe below the theme for the day!

2:25 am

loredana

now must go to the grid where herin .... oh there she is waves to herin and her 5 sisters!!

2:25 am

sprite

yvw lady, it is always nice to know that people think of you, right :)

2:26 am

sprite

2:26 am

jillibus

lore, I see your new icon when I click on it but the old one still shows here and I've refreshed twice!

2:26 am

jillibus

good idea, sprite!

2:27 am

loredana

jilli i dont know how that happens maybe the cliche from back before

2:29 am

herinfernallady

as i haven't had a pc at night she has missed me

2:29 am

jillibus

maybe it will show up eventually -- did you refresh more than once when you changed it?

2:30 am

sprite

ok, let's see how this works out.

2:30 am

sprite

not perfect, hm...

2:31 am

loredana

herin can you check my icon what comes up please

2:32 am

jillibus

2:34 am

herinfernallady

Jills pc doesn't want to play?

2:34 am

sprite

2:34 am

jillibus

I did -- still no runner -- amybe I have to reboot

2:34 am

jillibus

forgotten how to force-refresh...

2:35 am

sprite

remember to click on a spot on the site when you refresh, so you are not in the Add word window, and then Control F5.

2:35 am

loredana

that might be it jilli good thinking!!

2:35 am

herinfernallady

5:43 am

elder

Hello PInk, you and little one ok?:)

Hello Sadie..

5:45 am

elder

Hello Jean..

5:45 am

SaddySolar

whats up?

5:46 am

Eva

what's up here is rain and more rain. This has been the wettest and coolest summer anyone can remember. Had to start the woodstove yesterday morning-in mid August!

5:47 am

elder

Eva, seeing that you are going well ... I will persevere..:)

5:47 am

Michnick

That actually sounds good. I miss cool summer rains. Here we never get rain between April and November - and its H*O*T*

5:48 am

Eva

go for it elder...my frustration tolerance isn't very deep

5:49 am

Eva

I know - the first summer I spent in Israel I kept thinking it wa going to rain....clouds in the morning over the ocean, but then like clockwork it would all clear up. Very odd of a New Englander

5:49 am

SaddySolar

aaah rain... i miss rain so much!!! i moved to a coastal city after getting married... we've only had ONE proper rain this season

5:49 am

Eva

I'll send you both some

5:49 am

carleekat

morning all

5:50 am

elder

Eva, Ditto, there have been days when if you did not know you would think Autumn days with some of the weather we have experienced... generally a poor show for what should be our summer months.

5:50 am

SaddySolar

i used to live in a hilly city before... lots of rain there!!!!

5:50 am

SaddySolar

hey carlee

5:50 am

jean1953

good morning carleekat:)

5:50 am

carleekat

hi elder...saddy

5:50 am

elder

Hello Carleekat... :)

5:50 am

carleekat

hi jean

5:51 am

Eva

I am thankful, though, for avoiding the excessive heat that we usually have. But everyone is getting a bit grumpy and depressed and we are cornering the market on vitamin D.

5:52 am

SaddySolar

lol

5:52 am

carleekat

its bloody cold here right now eva

5:52 am

Michnick

When were you in Israel Eva? I am from Philly but I used to spend my summers in the Poconos. Philly was hot and muggy but in both places I'd love the summer rains.

5:52 am

Eva

My vegetable garden has no idea what is going on. You must be in the same weather system as we are carlee

5:53 am

elder

LOL re; the Vit D comment.. The garden e.g flowers and veg are confused with what they should be doing..

5:53 am

Eva

Michnick-I used to go to Israel often. Thought of making aloyah when I was younger, and then went every year for work. And have lots of family there. But haven't been in about 6 years. When did you move there?

5:54 am

Eva

aliyah...fingers aren't quite awake yet.

5:56 am

Eva

we do , however, have a lovely crop of mushrooms growing out of the garage floor. Don't know enough to know if they are edible.

5:57 am

jean1953

half way will return later hopefully time permitting, Happy Babbling everyone:)

5:58 am

Eva

bye jean

5:58 am

elder

Eva, if safe you would have a good feed there.. is there no one you can think of to test them out...

5:58 am

elder

Bye Jean.

5:59 am

Michnick

Hi I'm back my hubby called from the store. I've been here since 1985. I came for a year, never thought of aliya but I just fell in love with the lifestyle and the family oriented society. I have seven kids!

5:59 am

Eva

mushrooms are one of those things where you really need an expert(-:

6:00 am

elder

Eva. yes it would be best.... just wondering ....

6:01 am

Eva

wow! Quite a story! What section of Jerusalem do you live in?

6:01 am

Michnick

We live in the fartherst north suburb - Neve Yaakov.

6:01 am

elder

I can think of few people, who I would be tempted to offer them too... :)

6:02 am

Eva

elder-we could make a joint list(-:

6:03 am

Eva

I can't remember if I've ever been to Neve Yaakov. Is it newish?

6:04 am

Michnick

Not really, one of the neighborhoods built after '67. But it was originally built for immigrants from Arab countries. Only recently have more Americans moved in, but we've been here almost 19 years!

6:04 am

elder

LOL !!! you could make huge bucks.. on the street .. bet there would be a good market for your goods... ::)

6:05 am

Eva

still have 14 left. Looks like that's as far as I'm going to get. Now if those mushrooms were hallucinogenic we'd be in big business!! Something odd though about mushrooms growing on concrete.

6:06 am

Eva

Later, a bientot and lehitraot everyone.

6:06 am

Michnick

bye Eva!

6:07 am

elder

Bye Eva.. and think about those mushrooms ..... dollars!! could be yours..

12:09 pm

missbeeze

holyyyympics!! i love the olympics!

12:10 pm

missbeeze

where is my new icon?

12:10 pm

kje

hi beeze

12:10 pm

SeanS

hi beeze!

12:10 pm

SeanS

is that you playing mini golf?

12:11 pm

missbeeze

hey kj and Sean! there is my new icon! yes it is - that is my "sport" icon from yesterday - lol!

12:11 pm

missbeeze

it was either that or a basketball or volleyball pic from like 8th grade

12:11 pm

kje

remind me again where in TX you are from beeze

12:11 pm

missbeeze

i'm from Dallas! whoo hoo D-town!

12:12 pm

kje

oooo - should have done 8th grade! - bet we could have laughed at that

12:12 pm

missbeeze

actually just south of Dallas - small town called Midlothian

12:12 pm

SeanS

yes, well... i think that even 8th grade volleyball classifies as more of a sport than mini golf

12:12 pm

missbeeze

that is why i chose the mini golf - i thought it was rather funny!

12:13 pm

kje

what sean, haven't seen the chinese sweeping the medals in mini golf?

12:13 pm

kje

it's a nice pic, beeze, we are just teasing

12:13 pm

kje

I am in D - don't know why

12:16 pm

missbeeze

don't know why you are in D?

12:16 pm

missbeeze

you don't like it there?

12:16 pm

kje

yep - don't know what possessed me : )

12:16 pm

SeanS

agreeing with kje on the teasing... also, what time is the mini golf on? and do they have a water version?

12:16 pm

kje

not living it yet

12:16 pm

missbeeze

where did you move from?

12:17 pm

kje

oooo - water golf!!!!

12:17 pm

SeanS

i'd love to hear the commentators on water putt-putt

12:17 pm

kje

I moved from Baltimore

12:17 pm

missbeeze

it is eastern time mini golf at Myrtle Beach and no there is no water version, although i think per capita Myrtle Beach holds the world record for mini golf courses

12:17 pm

kje

I grew up in a Dallas suburb, but lived in B-more 10 years and got use to the NE

12:18 pm

kje

the water version would be puttthh puttthh

12:18 pm

SeanS

i'm actually not surprised, beeze... i was there once as a kid and i still remember that there were mini golf courses every other block!

12:18 pm

SeanS

haha, kje

12:18 pm

missbeeze

i'm still adjusting to the NE - i loved Dallas - i lived in North Dallas and loved it - you have to experience Dallas

12:19 pm

kje

tell me what you loved about it beeze

12:19 pm

missbeeze

it is crazy the mini golf courses - that was in the winter right after I went to see David Copperfield - thus the coat

12:19 pm

kje

convert me

12:19 pm

SeanS

probably no water golf in the winter

12:20 pm

kje

ice putt putt - that could be even funnier!!!

12:20 pm

missbeeze

I liked the convenience of the city, I live in SC now, so it is way different - everything is spread out. They have the blue law - limited shopping - Dallas has everything

12:21 pm

smoove

li6/24 anyone?

12:21 pm

missbeeze

That sounds a little weird b/c Dallas is huge, but everywhere you can get everything. There is no Whole Foods market here, no Nordstrom

12:21 pm

kje

still a heathen, must do better beeze

12:21 pm

SeanS

god! that would be a challenge, kje. it would be very cool though... it'd be like a winter wonderland! a whole mini golf course set up on an ice rink...

12:22 pm

missbeeze

My favorite thing is Publix so far.

12:22 pm

kje

do you have the 4 and 5 before it smoove?

12:22 pm

missbeeze

that is pretty bad....no natural grocery stores

12:22 pm

missbeeze

The blue law - you cannot buy alcohol on Sunday!

12:22 pm

kje

wait that would then be like putt putt with a hockey puck?

12:23 pm

kje

i think the difference is you are comparing city to rural life

12:23 pm

smoove

I don't think so.

12:23 pm

hurshy

are all the D's do?

12:23 pm

missbeeze

And on Sunday you cannot buy anything even at Target unless it is a necessity - they have ropes around the clothing areas

12:23 pm

missbeeze

until 1:30pm

12:23 pm

kje

li 4 - li + **oo **oo train

12:24 pm

kje

then add consonant for the 5

12:24 pm

kje

then add plural for the 6

12:24 pm

SeanS

you might have to use a hockey puck, i supose... so it would be like... mini ice hockey?

12:24 pm

kje

puck puck

12:24 pm

smoove

thanks so much.

12:24 pm

missbeeze

yes, but i live in the capitol city, and so it is just odd

12:24 pm

missbeeze

lol puck puck

12:24 pm

kje

yw

12:24 pm

SeanS

haha, kje

12:25 pm

hurshy

puck puck goose?

12:25 pm

SeanS

my kind of joke :)

12:25 pm

kje

I like a walkinng city beeze.... small restaurants, cool independent shops... dallas is the land of the shopping mall and chains

12:25 pm

hurshy

are all the D words do words?

12:25 pm

kje

yes, all do

12:26 pm

hurshy

ok thanks

12:26 pm

SeanS

for a second i read those do's as the word "do" and i didn't know what you were talking about...

12:26 pm

missbeeze

you

12:27 pm

kje

the capital has no organic grocer??? that is surprising... but you do have lots of farms around you - is there a good farmers amrket

12:27 pm

hurshy

ok, i need DO6 and a T6 to finish...

12:27 pm

missbeeze

you'd probably like charleston or charlotte

12:27 pm

kje

do 6 - miami vice star shortened

12:27 pm

missbeeze

there are some good little shops downtown - i am not a mall fan myself - i actually hate them - i like small one of a kind shops

12:27 pm

missbeeze

no organic grocery, but we do have a farmers market

12:28 pm

kje

I will guess that the t you need is ti6 - a cross between a tiger and a lion?

12:28 pm

hurshy

thanks!

12:28 pm

smoove

cute do clue...

12:28 pm

caitlyn

Good evening all..........

12:28 pm

hurshy

12:28 pm

SeanS

12:28 pm

missbeeze

yay hursh!

12:28 pm

caitlyn

Congrats hurshy

12:29 pm

missbeeze

i thought the same thing Sean - this is a different hybrid! lol

12:29 pm

kje

woohoo hursh!!!

12:29 pm

hurshy

i don't know if that ti6 is a cross... i know there's liger and tigon and i think it depends which is the mom...

12:29 pm

admadmadmadm

depends on which is mother/father, SeanS

12:29 pm

kje

depends sean on which is mom and which is dad - dad comes first

12:29 pm

hurshy

oh, yes, this is an alt sp of the ti

12:30 pm

hurshy

any sort of cat is cute in my book.

12:30 pm

hurshy

off to sudoku!

12:31 pm

kje

beeze - dallas is OK, it is just an adjustment...same for you... just have to get to know it better, but the heat doesn't help : )

12:31 pm

missbeeze

no - the heat is a nightmare!

12:32 pm

missbeeze

especially in the concrete jungle that is Dallas

12:32 pm

SeanS

ah well... you see how much i know about hybrid animals...

12:32 pm

caitlyn

Heat !!! Whats that??? Our summer lasted about a week and now looks like its gone!!

12:32 pm

missbeeze

Sean, you know more now!

12:33 pm

kje

my 10 favorite cities would be (in order) NYC, SF, Paris, Vancouver, Seattle, Boston, DC, Chicago, Montreal, Geneva

12:34 pm

missbeeze

I pet a Galapagos Turtle in July - they live for years and years, but they aren't hybrids, i just think they are cool

12:34 pm

kje

Austin and Houston would come before Dallas in TX

12:34 pm

kje

so would FW

12:34 pm

swviola

May I have some help on the co 5/16? It is my last word and I am completely stumped!

12:34 pm

missbeeze

i've never been to SF, but would love to go - i love NYC. Austin is a great city and FW is definitely better than Dallas - i agree with that - way more laid back

12:34 pm

SeanS

so, why does that male come first? why would they even have to have a different name for the same cross breed, just different parental sexes?

12:34 pm

missbeeze

a shell

12:35 pm

FMitch

Evening all

12:35 pm

swviola

Thanks so much missbeeze!!

12:35 pm

Hi FM!!!

12:35 pm

missbeeze

hey FM!

12:35 pm

swviola

Thanks all! Have a great day!!

12:35 pm

kje

12:36 pm

kje

congrats sw - and bye

12:36 pm

caitlyn

Congrats and ye swviola

12:36 pm

FMitch

Hello cait :) and Hi missB!

12:36 pm

missbeeze

because males always come first

12:36 pm

FMitch

lol

12:36 pm

caitlyn

LOL miss

12:36 pm

kje

SF is wonderful beeze - if you ever make it out that way let me know and I will tell you my favorite shops and restaurants

12:37 pm

kje

and why would you ask that question in a chat full of women, sean??? you are gutsy - LOL

12:37 pm

missbeeze

i will! i will def get some advice before i go from ya - i would like to go next year

12:37 pm

missbeeze

Sean may have been trying to show that he thinks women should have more opportunity!

12:37 pm

missbeeze

right Sean??

12:37 pm

FMitch

Oh SF, I have many happy memories from there.

12:37 pm

SeanS

haha, kje! no more gutsy than the next guy...

12:38 pm

FMitch

I think Sean likes to live dangerously :)

12:38 pm

caitlyn

On the edge!!

12:38 pm

kje

OK, just checked... at least 2 other guys are lurking... and they didn't jump in sean... so you are gutsier : )

12:38 pm

SeanS

well, i am somewhat of a feminist... although i don't classify myself as such... i'm more just all for equality in every aspect

12:39 pm

SeanS

that too, FM :P

12:39 pm

EvaNadine

has anyone heard about the latest olympic opening-show scandal? that the little girl they showed singing actually only lip-synched because the REAL little girl whose voice we all heard was "too uhly" to represent her country!?

12:39 pm

FMitch

How are you cait and hub?

12:39 pm

caitlyn

Hi Eva just listening to that on the news thats really bad

12:39 pm

FMitch

Yes EvaN, it was all over the news this morning!

12:39 pm

EvaNadine

i just heard. im FLOORED!

12:40 pm

SamanthaJoy

She has buck teeth, China didn't want buck teeth on their evening news.

12:40 pm

FMitch

What with that and the fact that some of the fireworks were pre recorded, make syou think!

12:40 pm

caitlyn

Im ok FM, tired after doing the "deaded shopping"How about you?

12:41 pm

SamanthaJoy

Also, they've been lying about the number of tickets sold.

12:41 pm

EvaNadine

i dont mind the firework thing SO much because at least the fireworks did really happen...but putting one girl onstage in place of another -- thats just repulsive to me.

12:41 pm

FMitch

deaded shopping LOL sounds like one of my typos! Im OK, bit tired.

12:41 pm

Alex7777

how many words today?

12:41 pm

SamanthaJoy

85

12:41 pm

missbeeze

wow - that is just wrong

12:41 pm

caitlyn

I wonder what the UK will do in the 2012 games

12:41 pm

FMitch

85 Alex

12:42 pm

Alex7777

just another 83 to find then!

12:42 pm

missbeeze

i hope that isn't true

You hope which isn't true, missbeeze?

12:42 pm

kje

that is sad - for both girls

12:43 pm

SeanS

wow... i hadn't heard anything about that! what kind of message does that send to the poor girl who has to stand behind a curtain and sing? and of course to the girl who has to lip sy4 as well... both those girls will place too much importance on beauty

12:43 pm

missbeeze

the little girls - that is sad.

12:43 pm

SamanthaJoy

Oh it's quite true. Sorry.

12:43 pm

missbeeze

ickkkkkkkkkk

12:44 pm

EvaNadine

the sick part is that when you read the article, the "powers that be" dont seem to think they did anything wrong because it was all "for china"

12:44 pm

SeanS

i didn't even mean to say beauty, since it is rather arbitrary... too much emphasis on looks is what i should've said

12:44 pm

kje

there was soooo much pressure on china to pull this off perfectly - they got a a bit out of hand

12:45 pm

SamanthaJoy

I think it's a cultural difference. The Chinese seem a little bit baffled by the outrage, and a little bit baffled over the fact that we're publicizing this

12:46 pm

EvaNadine

i guess when youre talking about a government that has SUCH control over their people, this shouldnt be surprising...

12:46 pm

But they put too much pressure on themselves to make it bigger and better than the last games

12:46 pm

SeanS

speaking of women's equality... China is a little bit behind on that as well... might have something to do with not thinking it is a big deal

12:46 pm

kje

the question I have when these things come out is who and how it was discovered... and to what end

12:46 pm

FMitch

but doesn't that apply to every country that hosts cait? God know what we are going to pull out of the hat?

12:46 pm

kje

sean - you are so crusin'!

12:47 pm

SamanthaJoy

Yeah. I read a hidden, not-so-subtle message in the opening ceremonies: "Hey Rest Of World! We have a gazillion people and we can move them in coordinated units for about whatever purpose we wish. Think it over."

12:47 pm

caitlyn

Thats what Im wondering about FM

12:47 pm

kje

I just hate that they search out the controversy on purpose instead of focusing on teh athletes

12:47 pm

SeanS

surprised, kje? :)

12:48 pm

missbeeze

it is just relative i guess - i can't wrap my mind around that, but i don't have the same perspective - and i don't want to - too much drama blah

12:48 pm

FMitch

Just think of all the mutitude of things the money could have been spent on instead

12:48 pm

EvaNadine

i just think that if youre THAT worried about it, then just choose an adult. and she can even be pretty. but for cryin out loud, let her actually sing. they had already chosen another little girl, but decided against her because at age 10, she was just too old...

12:48 pm

missbeeze

i'd rather babble

12:48 pm

kje

I don't think that is true sam - the choreographer for the opening ceremony was a US citizen, just for starters... they were caught up in the production... as hollywood was when it was in LA

12:48 pm

missbeeze

in my little happy babblebubble

12:49 pm

FMitch

Ya for babble *grin* and bigger grids.

12:49 pm

caitlyn

Hospitals, Police services. Air ambulances.Education..need I go on?

12:49 pm

caitlyn

I want a BIG grid tomorrow,I have the day without grandchildren

12:50 pm

kje

yes cait, but that can be true of every country that hosts the olympics... lots of building and money go into these

12:50 pm

EvaNadine

ill take a big grid on friday -- i took the day off :)

12:50 pm

missbeeze

i didn't get to do saturdays and that was the biggest I had seen - i was sooo sad!

12:50 pm

FMitch

It probably will be cait as I am out all afternoon and when I don't have time to babble they are usually big grids

12:51 pm

kje

and china actually has a decent government health system and education system, though their methids are not what I would choose

12:51 pm

SeanS

lucky people with days off! i can't wait until i get to have that!

12:51 pm

FMitch

The biggest ever was over a year ago, wonder if we are going to get another monster this year?

12:51 pm

caitlyn

I go along with the idea that the games should always be in Greece and the othercountries pay them

12:51 pm

kje

why sean? do you own your own business?

12:51 pm

EvaNadine

sean -- TAKING the day off -- i did a LOT of OT last week + even worked from home on sunday to get project done in time!
i EARNED it! :)

12:51 pm

FMitch

Work for yourself sean and then you can babble and work 24/7

12:52 pm

kje

no monsters - stop calling them FM!!!

12:52 pm

missbeeze

lol! Sean i'm hoping for you a day off too - did the new girl pass her licensing exam?

12:53 pm

FMitch

*claps had over mouth*

12:53 pm

missbeeze

Dr God is reading the chog kj - he is gonna grant the wish of the babblers!

12:53 pm

missbeeze

eek

12:53 pm

kje

*passes FM the duct tape*

12:53 pm

kje

no wishing... there is no wishing going on here!

12:53 pm

caitlyn

Im ready with the first aid kit for FMs faint!!

12:53 pm

SeanS

not even close, kje! i manage a very small insurance office, but we're understaffed at the moment... so for the last month and a half i've been working 50 hour weeks... plenty of OT pay as well, but i'd rather have the time off at the point

12:54 pm

missbeeze

Sean - did the new girl pass?

12:54 pm

SeanS

plus, i can't schedule vacation time until we know we have someone to cover the office

12:54 pm

kje

no comment sean - 50 hours, pshaw!

12:54 pm

FMitch

can you outsource any of the overload sean or is it bums on seats you need?

12:54 pm

EvaNadine

we dont get paid for OT.
so my only option is to take that time off within the payperiod or else just graciously donate my extra time to the company...

12:54 pm

caitlyn

LOL kje

12:55 pm

kje

we work too much in the US - we need to be more like france : )

12:55 pm

SeanS

no beeze, she hasn't yet

12:55 pm

SeanS

she's taken her test 4 times now, and still no luck

12:55 pm

FMitch

goodness is has gone very dark oustdie, must be more torrential rain on the way

12:55 pm

kje

all in favor of a 34 hour work week say aye

12:55 pm

missbeeze

oh - yikers - there may be no hope for her!

12:55 pm

EvaNadine

man, i thought *third* time was supposed to be a charm...

12:56 pm

missbeeze

i think maybe we should switch to 4 day wweek

12:56 pm

kje

do you still want her after that sean??? is that a bad sign?

12:56 pm

caitlyn

Yup FM more on the way

12:56 pm

missbeeze

aye**

12:56 pm

EvaNadine

im envious of the places that have switched to the 4-day work week. longers days kinda suck, but only 4 of them makes it not-so-bad!

12:56 pm

FMitch

Whats a '34 hour week' can't remember one of those

12:56 pm

SeanS

she's lucky they changed the laws on the test taking, though... when i did it you only had 3 tries before you had to retake the class... now you take the class once, and they give you 180 to pass no matter how many times you take the test

12:57 pm

SeanS

i'd be all for 4 day week... even if it was 50 hours in 4 days, at least i'd have few days off in a row

12:57 pm

kje

180 tries!?!?!? you gotta be kidding

12:57 pm

missbeeze

i work 40 hours in 4 days anyway, so i'm all about it!

12:57 pm

SeanS

180 days**

12:57 pm

kje

what do you do beeze/

12:57 pm

kje

oh - still - that could be once/day

12:57 pm

missbeeze

i'm a freight broker

12:58 pm

missbeeze

although my degree is Social Work - lol

12:58 pm

kje

what does that mean?

12:58 pm

SeanS

yeah... you do have to schedule it though, but you can usually get one within a few days of when you call

12:58 pm

kje

it's like career day at school : )

12:58 pm

EvaNadine

last week, i ended up working 14.5 hours o thursday. yes, thats right, just 1/5 hours short of working 2 full days on one day.
then another half hour extra on friday + another 5 hours on sunday.

12:58 pm

SeanS

so potentially you could try about 90 times if you had to before they would make you take the class over again

12:58 pm

kje

what do you do eva?

12:59 pm

FMitch

lol kje

12:59 pm

kje

another SW - cool beeze! we have quite a few of those on babble

12:59 pm

caitlyn

Thats its too long to do in a day Eva you cant concentrate all that time

12:59 pm

kje

most of whom do not do it anymore, which I find very sad

12:59 pm

missbeeze

i negotiate rates between suppliers of various materials and carriers (big trucks to haul the material) for a profit

12:59 pm

EvaNadine

just had projects with tight deadlines. i was a little delusional by the end...heh

1:00 pm

SeanS

do you like it, beeze?

1:00 pm

missbeeze

it is sad that most SW don't continue - i started right out college working for CPS right there in Dallas

1:00 pm

kje

wow - cps - tough gig!

1:00 pm

FMitch

It is possible to do extended periods of long hours but in the end you run the risk of burnout.

1:00 pm

kje

burn out has to be high in SW

1:01 pm

caitlyn

I must go and sort some food out,see you all tomorrow, take care...bye

1:01 pm

missbeeze

it is very challenging - kind of like a game - matching trucks to loads, etc., so i enjoy it, but right now, it is difficult - due to fuel for diesel and etc

1:01 pm

SeanS

bye cait

1:01 pm

FMitch

Bye cait

1:01 pm

kje

bye cait! stay dry

1:01 pm

missbeeze

burnout is crazy in SW especially at CPS - the caseloads were...bye cait....dramatically crushing and cases were closed with continued risk

1:01 pm

SeanS

i would imagine, beeze... at least prices are starting to move down a little bit

1:02 pm

missbeeze

i couldn't handle that - i was doing at least a removal a day and placing children in separate foster homes due to lack of placements

1:02 pm

missbeeze

the system is just messed up and there is not a good fix

1:02 pm

kje

I try to remember that when I have to call APS, beeze, and don't get so frustrated with what they can/can't do

1:02 pm

kje

the system is completely f***ed

1:02 pm

kje

sorry

1:02 pm

missbeeze

i feared that i would have a death on my caseload

1:03 pm

missbeeze

it is - APS is the same umbrella

1:03 pm

missbeeze

that is true - it is the bottom line

1:03 pm

kje

it is sad that we live in a society where CPS is so needed

1:03 pm

kje

and APS

1:03 pm

missbeeze

i know - and APS

1:04 pm

cacoon

hello

1:04 pm

missbeeze

they are both needed badly and people don't realize how neglected seniors are

1:04 pm

missbeeze

hey cacoon

1:04 pm

cacoon

wat u talkin bout

1:05 pm

kje

yet, our lovely pres again submitted that services should be cut, including Medicare, Medicaid, and all support services, including safety hospital support

1:05 pm

SeanS

i think a lot of people realize it, beeze, but don't care... i think people don't like to think about the elderly because they don't want to think about the end of their own life

1:05 pm

kje

we are wallowing in the pit of dispair cacoon - care to drag us put???

1:06 pm

kje

dispare

1:06 pm

SeanS

i think we need a rousing game of puck puck

1:06 pm

kje

I can't remember how to spell it!!!

1:06 pm

kje

despair

1:06 pm

kje

that looks right - LOLOL

1:06 pm

SeanS

that's right :P

1:07 pm

kje

well, that was humiliating

1:07 pm

missbeeze

yes it is - it's weird how sometimes a word just doesn't look right

1:07 pm

cacoon

haah

1:07 pm

kje

puck puck!!! yes! what should we have on our course? any design ideas?

1:07 pm

cacoon

1:08 pm

SeanS

well there absolutely has to be an igloo hole

1:08 pm

cacoon

ok wat is goin on here???

1:08 pm

SeanS

another where you hit in the polar bear's mouth

1:08 pm

missbeeze

and lots of animal ice carvings - maybe like a polar bear

1:08 pm

missbeeze

lol Sean!

1:08 pm

kje

an igloo - yes! with a walrus guarding the entrance

1:09 pm

kje

oooo - ice animals - nice

1:09 pm

SeanS

bounce it off the ice skating penguins...

1:09 pm

missbeeze

and you can see it go into his tummy and then drop out!

1:09 pm

kje

poor polar bear - we can't do that, they are becoming extinct

1:09 pm

cacoon

i like ice cream

1:09 pm

kje

we could have a water hazard.... the melting ice cap

1:09 pm

missbeeze

it would be in tribute!

1:09 pm

SeanS

not a real polar bear!

1:10 pm

SeanS

hahaha, kje

1:10 pm

kje

penguins - cute!

1:11 pm

kje

whale migrations - sink it in the blow hole and it blows out on the others side of the course

1:11 pm

SeanS

so would you use ice skates or those speical ice walking shoes?

1:11 pm

missbeeze

we could have a mt icemore

1:11 pm

kje

gotta be skates... more challenging that way

1:12 pm

SeanS

creative, kje! what an elaborate puck puck course this would be!

1:12 pm

kje

oooo - who should we put on it beeze?

1:12 pm

missbeeze

i was thinking....

1:12 pm

SeanS

jack frost...

1:12 pm

kje

1:16 pm

FMitch

1:16 pm

missbeeze

1:16 pm

SeanS

missbeeze

1:24 pm

missbeeze

master procrast...er!?!

1:25 pm

SeanS

haha, beeze

1:25 pm

hey beeze, I am having dinner at 2900 tonight... did you ever go there?

1:25 pm

FMitch

There is a closet in the PB actually

1:25 pm

missbeeze

i think i am more just avoiding than procrastinating

1:25 pm

kje

you are right FM, I forgot.... we hide chocolate there... and lots of liquor

1:26 pm

missbeeze

yes! it is excellent food - the chef is reknowned!

1:26 pm

missbeeze

you can watch him while he cooks!

1:26 pm

SeanS

i suppose so, kathryn... but if you put a bunch of liquor in there, people might be coming out of closets left and right

1:27 pm

FMitch

lol

1:27 pm

kje

thus, the skinny dipping... and occasional poo flinging by monkey

1:28 pm

SeanS

hahaha

1:28 pm

so now you are a proctologist kje?

1:40 pm

kje

there are several national groups that give info and support pug

1:41 pm

kje

the american parkinsons ds assoc

1:41 pm

AsGreen

ignoring ass ref

1:41 pm

FMitch

pug I found a couple of good online sites when I googled Parkinsons

1:41 pm

kje

and the national parkinson's foundation

1:41 pm

pugmama763

apparently my Dads Doc feels he has some Parkinsonian type thing going on & I don't know much about it..

1:41 pm

Jellen

Hi, all!

1:41 pm

kje

both have chapters all over the US and support groups as well as online info resources

1:41 pm

FMitch

same here pug

1:41 pm

AsGreen

Jellen - it's been ages! Hi!!

1:41 pm

pugmama763

ty vm dear I know there is a lot of wrong info on the net

1:42 pm

kje

who is your dad seeing? a FP, IM, geri, or neuro?

1:42 pm

FMitch

Hello Jellen

1:42 pm

missbeeze

Hey Jellen!

1:42 pm

pugmama763

neuro I believe

1:42 pm

AsGreen

amazing tennis going on...!!!!

1:43 pm

pugmama763

tried to convince him to see a geri but....

1:43 pm

SeanS

okay, back... work keeps interrupting me!

1:43 pm

kje

OK, generally they will watch them overtime... there are sevral PD-like diseases and symptoms develop somewhat differently, and respond differently to treatment

1:43 pm

FMitch

How are you Jellen?

1:43 pm

kje

my grandmother had PD also, but she died from non-related causes many years ago

1:43 pm

Jellen

I am well, thanks, FMitch. Got my hair done today, always makes me feel better.

1:44 pm

AsGreen

can I bring this down a level and make my admission?

1:44 pm

FMitch

Good, a little pampering is always good for the soul

1:44 pm

Jellen

My grandmother also had PD.

1:44 pm

FMitch

Go for it AsG

1:44 pm

SeanS

i have a few clients with PD... i always hate it when i have to have them sign paper work...

1:44 pm

AsGreen

ok, so ***i have something to admit***

1:45 pm

pugmama763

his has become gradually (I mean decades!) become more befuddled & forgetful and at a loss for words (stammering etc.) SO sad as he was a BRILLIANT man...

1:45 pm

kje

sorry to hear that pug - but treatment can be good

1:45 pm

AsGreen

I watched Access Hollywood last night, for the first time. It had some Olympic leadins that made me interested....

1:45 pm

pugmama763

I shall learn what I can & PRAY!

1:45 pm

AsGreen

I was EMBARRASSED to be an American after that half hour

1:45 pm

SeanS

AsGreen - go on...

1:46 pm

kje

typical PD disease does not present as demntia early on... it is a very late development in a few, but not all

1:46 pm

missbeeze

at least you didn't say you are now addicted to Access Hollywood!

1:46 pm

kje

dementia

1:46 pm

AsGreen

omg, "so, here's so and so, learning how to use chop sticks for her appearance in Beijing" , and, "how's the Chinese food over there?" OMG

1:46 pm

kje

if his main problem is cognitive, PD is unlikely, but maybe one of the related diseases

1:47 pm

pugmama763

the tremors etc have been long present but quite mild the mental symptoms were always the more pronounced

1:47 pm

AsGreen

(sorry Pug and KJE, I thought it was ok to start)....

1:47 pm

missbeeze

at least you didn't watch Access Beijing - to learn that your country put the cute girl on to lip sy** out of embarassment for the real singer

1:47 pm

kje

then typical PD is probably not the diagnosis

1:48 pm

pugmama763

thats what I gathered ,likely something related

1:48 pm

AsGreen

anyway, I could NOT believe....and then some guy (Billy Bush? I'm not sure it was him) talked about how he's been sticking to pb&j....

1:48 pm

pugmama763

anyway ,thank you love & I'll stop hogging the chog now!

1:49 pm

kje

the distinguishing cahracteristics between the different ones are the order ond degree of different sx, pug... maybe lewey body dementia? does he have any hallucinations?

1:49 pm

lynxxx

goodmorning everyone

1:49 pm

missbeeze

hey lynxxx

1:49 pm

kje

sorry, OK, done

pugmama763

not that I've been made privy to but we live in different states...

1:49 pm

Jellen

Hi, lynxxx!

1:50 pm

kje

ASG - it is probably a good idea to stick to their normal diets until after their events.... a GI bug could wipe out their medal

1:50 pm

AsGreen

kje - these were the anchormen...not the athletes!!!

1:50 pm

pugmama763

and his wife is a self absorbed wing-nut so not the most reliable source of info

1:50 pm

ChrissieDee

SeanS

why thank you kathryn! :)

3:48 pm

wickdsmaht

I know! I'll probably put an em-dash (the long dash) and everyone will be like "What IS that?" Because by itself it's just...a line.

4:13 pm

icepyro

wickd... I must say that your theme suggestions are rather .... interesting

4:13 pm

wickdsmaht

I can be an odd girl sometimes. :) I also suggest "most ridiculous hair-dos"

4:13 pm

kje

did we scrae doglover off?

4:14 pm

sprite

is that like the beehive hairdos?

4:14 pm

mo

what about efts sprite?

4:14 pm

sprite

I think I will combine those two

4:14 pm

icepyro

odd is different. different is good =D

4:14 pm

sprite

efts??? Okayyyyy, could be fun

4:14 pm

wickdsmaht

Oh! I didn't see behives. I was thinking more like mullets.

4:15 pm

sprite

4:15 pm

mo

Doglover ... please come back.

4:15 pm

icepyro

lol I think both count

4:15 pm

mo

hi Jellen.

4:16 pm

sprite

hi Jellen *hug*
How are things? Holding up?

4:16 pm

wickdsmaht

No kidding, mo? I had no idea! I was thinking "electronic fund transfer" and I couldn't really figure out how to show that in an icon.

4:17 pm

kje

it was the demon talk - LOL

4:17 pm

icepyro

you do realize that I will likely have an icon screenshot of monty python if you do that.... "she turned me into a newt! ... I got better"

4:17 pm

Jellen

Things are okay, sprite. We're in a holding pattern until Tim gets in to see an oncologist...

4:17 pm

wickdsmaht

But ice, you don't look like a newt...

4:17 pm

mo

we are a bit " scary" :-)

4:18 pm

Jellen

Ooops! Gotta run...it's snack time. I'll be back!

4:18 pm

icepyro

4:18 pm

sprite

4:19 pm

mo

wickd ... you are "wicked"

4:19 pm

sprite

ok, list updated again. You guys were great. I love the themes, will think of some real good icons for them :) Thanks a million!

4:19 pm

SeanS

okay, i had a new policy there... took a few minutes... so pills for PTD... there would probably be different ones for different specific problems... like "anti-dyslexotic pills" or something.... general pill could be "Type-O's" although that sounds more like a cereal...

4:19 pm

sprite

Finger Fixing Fruits

4:20 pm

4:36 pm

jeanne314

4:36 pm

sprite

Sint Maarten is a Dutch celebration for the kids. In honor of St. Martinus they go from door to door for treats. A bit like your Hallowe'en, I think.

4:36 pm

redturtlehead

Ohhh. Fun!

4:36 pm

4:41 pm

redturtlehead

I'm not so sure I am impressed by the commentators for MSNBC.

4:42 pm

redturtlehead

they are debating is it the most medals or the most gold medals? I thought it was about representing your country in an honorable way....

4:42 pm

sprite

red, your theme is in too, Jan 18!

4:42 pm

redturtlehead

I'm sticking with Lopex lomong until the end of the Olympics, or his race.

4:42 pm

icepyro

I liekd the commentators on the gymnastics last nite... they were like "well he would have to do this good and he didnt"

4:42 pm

redturtlehead

cool sprite!

4:43 pm

redturtlehead

My favorite phantom is Rodeo. I have it alot.

4:43 pm

4:44 pm

icepyro

bye sprite sleep well =D

4:44 pm

icepyro

it was on early morning... like 1am pacific time... the gymnasts were generally pretty bad

4:44 pm

lil*monkey

duh just noticed that there is a gerund in the corner!

4:45 pm

icepyro

and the commentators were not very encouraging

4:46 pm

lil*monkey

i had a F***ing awful day at work and I 'm on my 2nd glass of wine now

4:46 pm

icepyro

poor monkey

4:47 pm

jacq

hello there fellow babblers

4:47 pm

icepyro

*pulls the jar on his desk and puts it in babble land* see the sign? "Psychiatric help $0.05"

4:47 pm

lil*monkey

phantom word: hedonist

4:47 pm

icepyro

hi jacq

4:48 pm

redturtlehead

Oh monkey, i am sorry that you had a bad day.

4:49 pm

lil*monkey

TY red... i can't even begin to explain how F***ked up it was

4:49 pm

lil*monkey

there is a woman at my work who wants to make my life miserable and she is succeeding

4:50 pm

redturtlehead

I finally had a day off. It was faboo, all except the shopping etc.

4:50 pm

missbeeze

monkey - to let her succeed is the worst thing you can do

4:51 pm

lil*monkey

good 4 u, red :)

4:51 pm

lil*monkey

yea yea ya, i've heard all that before...

4:51 pm

missbeeze

act wacky and say ridiculous out of character things - i have a customer that does that to me and i have had to resort to silliness

4:51 pm

icepyro

dont get mad, get even... er I mean... nm

4:51 pm

lil*monkey

it's a complicated situation...

4:51 pm

icepyro

hi missbeeze

4:52 pm

missbeeze

she has no clue what to do - the best thing you can do is act totally out of character

4:52 pm

missbeeze

hey icy!

4:52 pm

icepyro

lol

4:52 pm

lil*monkey

both BF and I got flat tires on our vehicles while we were on vacation, and I suspect her

4:52 pm

lil*monkey

she is a wacko stalker

4:52 pm

missbeeze

make rhymes with your words and stuff

4:52 pm

missbeeze

whoa!

4:53 pm

missbeeze

then act like even more of a wacko!

4:53 pm

icepyro

er... thats bad

4:53 pm

missbeeze

be bop around and make rhymes like nothing in life matters - and then say gotta flat tire and i know who did it i know who did it and it was you - boo!

4:54 pm

missbeeze

or something totally weirdo!

4:54 pm

icepyro

LoL

4:54 pm

missbeeze

she will be always wondering!

4:54 pm

missbeeze

lol - being insane works monkey!

4:56 pm

lil*monkey

i already let it be known at work that i found the flat tires suspicious... when i was outside waiting for the repair guy, she drove by. Tell me that isn't suspicious

4:56 pm

missbeeze

she did it - if your gut tells you she did it, she did. you just need to let it be known right to her that you know - without directly accusing her

4:57 pm

lil*monkey

no offense miss beeze, but i don't want to act "insane"

4:57 pm

missbeeze

you don't want her to feel that she got away with something

4:57 pm

icepyro

I dunno if silliness works on someone already that messed in the head ... I had one person stalking my ex and I... had to just pretend it didnt bother us and quietly stay more out of sight and she eventually got bored because we werent being hurt by it, it seemed

4:57 pm

missbeeze

i know, i'm being serious now though

4:57 pm

lil*monkey

oh i did, miss beeze... i told a few people at work that we were having the police brought in (just to scare her)

4:57 pm

soozy

fireworks for me :o)

4:58 pm

missbeeze

you can't allow her to feel she got away with it. She probably isn't frightened by the police

4:58 pm

lil*monkey

yes, i'm leaning toward that method, icepyro

4:58 pm

icepyro

yay soozy

4:58 pm

kje

woohoo soozy!

4:58 pm

soozy

and hello

4:58 pm

missbeeze

do you think she would be - serious stalkers usually are not

4:58 pm

kje

sorry to hear the drama monkey - I hate drama !

4:58 pm

missbeeze

yay soozy!

4:58 pm

lil*monkey

but for now, it's really upsetting... she spreads horrible rumors at work about me & my BF

4:59 pm

missbeeze

does she have a motive monkey? is she just jealous?

4:59 pm

icepyro

I have a sticker on my bass guitar - "Drama -- Get some in your life!" right next to "stop global whining" lol

4:59 pm

kje

I wouldn't waste a lot of energy unless you think she is truly dangerous... otherwise what ice said is likely right - ignore her and she'll get bored and move on

4:59 pm

lil*monkey

icepyro, i play electric bass :)

5:00 pm

lil*monkey

TY everyone, i apreciate the concern & suggestions

5:00 pm

kje

bully's always want to find the victim that will squirm the most

5:00 pm

redturtlehead

monkey that sucks...

5:00 pm

icepyro

yeah monkey! I was given a bass as a gift and doodle around on it from time to time

5:00 pm

jacq

you need to go to your supervisor and make sure it's noted with your personnell people that this is happening

5:00 pm

kje

you are too cool monkey!!! really, you play bass?

5:01 pm

missbeeze

she seems fairly elevated to have gone as far as to flatten both of your tires - i would actually put the police on alert - it depends on her motives, but if she has true stalker tendencies, she could be dangerous

5:01 pm

icepyro

not very good because I always find thigns to distract me tho

5:01 pm

lil*monkey

oh just saw your comment missbeeze... yes she has a motive. She is jealous. She met my BF online about 1 /2 years before i met him, they had a few dates and he said he wasn't interested.

5:01 pm

lil*monkey

sorry, meant to say, *about one and 1/2 years*

5:02 pm

kje

hell hath no furry?

5:02 pm

missbeeze

it should be documented for your personal security and in case things were to escalate - i would just have the police make a report - they won't take it serious, but it could make a difference if it continues

5:02 pm

lil*monkey

yes i used to play bass in a band, called "JT and the Pussycats"

5:02 pm

kje

and were you JT or a pussy cat?

5:02 pm

lil*monkey

i still have my bass, but haven't touched it in a while

5:02 pm

missbeeze

she was a pussy cat of course!

5:02 pm

kje

fury

5:02 pm

lil*monkey

i was a pussycat of course!

5:03 pm

kje

yes, that's it - I did it on purpose!!! another cure for the PTD

5:04 pm

missbeeze

monkey - seriously you should get it documented - if she has stalker tendencies, it could escalate, and everything should be documented - if you have to get a restraining order, you need everything you can get

5:04 pm

lil*monkey

ice, what kind of music do you play?

5:04 pm

icepyro

I was originally taking up bass to make a band with a couple friends.... but the singer/guitarist proved to have more issues than a magazine

5:04 pm

kje

I on the other hand do not have to worry about such, monkey, as I am BF-less at the moment... see, every cloud has a silver lining - LOL

5:04 pm

missbeeze

ok - i'm done now - sorry!

5:05 pm

lil*monkey

yes missbeeze... i documented (in my dayplanner) that we both had the flat tires, that i found a drill bit on the ground beisde my car, that i saw her drive by... also i told the repair guy

5:05 pm

missbeeze

even the single cloud kje!

5:05 pm

kje

more issues than a magazine - never heard that one - like it!

5:05 pm

lil*monkey

good one, ice

5:05 pm

missbeeze

actually the single cloud is really great once you find contentment there - it is a great place to be!

5:06 pm

lil*monkey

ice, i like to play blues, surf rock, rock n roll, pop... fav songs by BB King, Jimi Hendrix, Allman Brothers, Dick Dale

5:06 pm

icepyro

I hate the single cloud, but Im so used to it now that i ahve a hard time being on any other cloud

5:06 pm

kje

no worries beeze, I do not feel cloudy... or overcast... or whatever...

5:07 pm

missbeeze

i got very content with the singlehood before marriage came along - i was perfectly content with being single forever

5:07 pm

lil*monkey

I LOVE the bass line to the Allman Brothers song, Melissa

5:07 pm

icepyro

I played alternative/rock mostly

5:07 pm

icepyro

simple songs lol

5:07 pm

lil*monkey

i am single, but living with BF... it's kind of a limbo-kind of situation

5:07 pm

kje

monkey - you should pick it up and play again! sounds like you really loved it

5:07 pm

kje

limbo cloud

5:08 pm

lil*monkey

Hi again Wickd

5:29 pm

wickdsmaht

Like, for my job, Ice? I'm a technical editor.

5:30 pm

Mom

oh those were the days. I doubt the teenagers know what one is

5:30 pm

missbeeze

she told me about them and going to the beauty school when she was growing up with her sisters

5:30 pm

Mom

I can remember her putting up her hair and setting it on top of her head and then coming home and putting it on the styrofoam head

5:31 pm

missbeeze

i know! that is so right - i appreciate my mom so much - she didn't realize she was teaching me these things when she just told me stories!

5:31 pm

Mom

and taking it to the beauty shop to be washed and set

5:31 pm

icepyro

technical like 'I make sure its grammatically correct' ??

5:31 pm

missbeeze

i don't remember her wearing it, because she was younger when she wore it, but she tells stories of them and that they had the styrofoam head and everything

5:31 pm

Mom

I can tell how much you appreciate your mom by the way you talk about her

5:32 pm

missbeeze

she is the best mom in the world, but i'm sure many people feel that way about their mothers!

5:32 pm

Mom

I know I do

5:32 pm

wickdsmaht

I edit technical information for a large corporation. I make sure stuff is grammatically correct, and I spend a lot of time making sure information is consistent across documents.

5:32 pm

missbeeze

I sent tribute to mothers as an icon day to sprite and she put it on the list

5:33 pm

Mom

is Sprite doing the icons now? I rarely keep up with them

5:33 pm

icepyro

yes mom sprite took over icon themes.. need a link to her profile?

5:33 pm

wickdsmaht

It's a computer company -- a lot of very detailed information about RAM and GBs and PCI slots. Sometimes my brain comes out my ears.

5:33 pm

missbeeze

so we can put things that make us think of our mothers -eek! cannot wait until January! yes she is doing the themes - i sent a bunch for and they all fall in January

5:33 pm

Mom

yes, Ice. Please and thank you

5:34 pm

icepyro

wickd .. sounds somewhere between awesomely interesting (I am a comp geek after all) and totally tedious (I hate grammar and overkill documentation)

5:52 pm

icepyro

still cheaper than the 3 hr drive to deliver myself tho lol

5:52 pm

nancethefan

well done, girlfriend. i'm proud of you. i must stop but haven't yet. are you taking a pill, the patch, the gum or just old fashioned willpower?

Minveryork

I call what he smokes cancer sticks not cigarrettes.

5:52 pm

wickdsmaht

My mom quit after 30 years, cold turkey, so I know that anyone can do it!

5:52 pm

wickdsmaht

This is probably true, ice, lol

5:52 pm

k21eyes

My husband just started again after 6 years of not smoking. ARGH!

5:53 pm

k21eyes

Nance...I'm using the pill. Most excellent! I couldn't do it without

5:53 pm

Minveryork

My M-I-L quit cold turkey after probably over 4o yrs.

5:54 pm

k21eyes

wow

5:54 pm

k21eyes

I tried cold turkey...I was a loon

5:54 pm

nancethefan

my doctor has spoken to me about the pill. i hope to get my mind set to quit soon & i believe i will try the pill. i'm really hooked.

5:54 pm

Minveryork

What kind of pill is it.Is it covered by your insurance

5:54 pm

k21eyes

Husband begged me to keep smoking LOL

5:54 pm

nancethefan

i tried cold turkey & i was evil

5:54 pm

k21eyes

It's Chantix and no...not covered by ins

5:55 pm

ExWren

I smoked for years, then I saw my Brother in law just before he died of lung cancer. 2 months after his funeral, I woke up one Monday morning, and said "Dammit! I'm not going to buy any more" and that did it for me.

5:55 pm

k21eyes

But hte cost is the same as buying cigs each month

5:55 pm

ExWren

That was seventeen years ago!

5:55 pm

icepyro

from what I understand the pill helps with cravings while also somehow making cigs taste worse than they smell

5:56 pm

Minveryork

Hubby is evil even smoking,imagine what he would be if he quit! Still I would rather that he quit smoking. I would rather he be evil than dead.

5:56 pm

k21eyes

Definatleyh helps with the withdrawl symtoms. I still crave but get over it. I still like the smell but not sure about the taste cuz I haven't tried...afraid to

5:57 pm

nancethefan

eyes - my doctor recommended the pill Chantix starter pack followed by Chantix 1 Mg tablet 2 times a day for 12 weeks.

5:57 pm

nancethefan

does that sound about right?

5:57 pm

icepyro

the hardest part (from watching others, not personal exp) is finding a way to fill in the habits... after meal relaxation... taking a break in general.. etc

5:57 pm

k21eyes

That's what I'm doing Nance..same thing. Only I have learned that one should not go off the pills cdold turkey either. Weaning off the last two weeks is what I was told to do

5:58 pm

Mom

Hi ExWren, nice to see you again

5:58 pm

nancethefan

ok sweetie - thank you - i have to get myself psyched up

5:58 pm

Mom

lol Min. My dad quit cold turkey in 1976

5:58 pm

k21eyes

Ice...every suggestion I have read about "trigger " situations and how to avoid them doesn't work for me. All there ideas ARE my triggers.. LOL

5:58 pm

Minveryork

Hello ExWren!How are you doing?Welcome to the grid

5:58 pm

wickdsmaht

My dad chewed toothpicks after he quit. I was afraid that he would ironically choke on a toothpick.

5:59 pm

k21eyes

Mom...and he stayed quit?

5:59 pm

Mom

Min I am down to 1, hurry and catch up

5:59 pm

Mom

yes, K21 he sure did

5:59 pm

Mom

and he smoked 5 packs a day when he quit

5:59 pm

k21eyes

Wow

5:59 pm

icepyro

k21 my roomate had a similar problem... he seriously is a lot more angsty since he quit... but he has been quit nearly a year now

5:59 pm

ExWren

I'm not enjoying this grid, even though it is a small one that I normally prefer.

6:00 pm

jessmom

my dad ate hard candy after he quit...every night he entertained himself by trying to throw wrappers into my iced tea

6:00 pm

Minveryork

My dad used to smoke too, but don't remember when he quit. It was sometime when I was little girl though

6:00 pm

Mom

it is awful, ExWren

6:00 pm

k21eyes

Thats funny Jess!

6:00 pm

Mom

lol Jess and hello

6:00 pm

nancethefan

my dad quit cold turkey in 1978 (due to a heart attack) - never touched one again & he's almost 84 now.

6:00 pm

jessmom

that was back in 1981, I was 10

6:00 pm

ExWren

I started the grid this morning, but I didn't get far. It is midnight now!

6:01 pm

Mom

dad did not want the three of us to smoke so he struck a bargain. If any of us kids did not smoke before the age of 21 we got $100 on our 21st birthday

6:01 pm

k21eyes

So I guess thinking about them constantly DOES eventually go away?????

6:01 pm

jessmom

one of his co-workers lost a lung, and when he came out of surgery the first thing he did was tell my dad to quit

6:01 pm

Mom

oh dear ExWren, that is late

6:02 pm

k21eyes

Hey mom..good idea. We just chose tho kill our kids. So dar...so good.

6:02 pm

nancethefan

eyes? did your craving go away immediately? my doctor told me he's had patients that the meds worked that fast.

6:34 pm

I was thinking if he had a doctor's note with a return date, then I don't think he could be fired

6:35 pm

lil*monkey

good point mom!

6:35 pm

nancethefan

isn't it nice having friends on the net?

6:35 pm

Mom

it is only if they don't return by the date stated which could always be replaced with another doctors note,

6:35 pm

nancethefan

me either - the doctor's note he had stated that he would return to work after 30 days

6:35 pm

Mom

that they can terminate if they desire

6:36 pm

Mom

I don't think the boss is playing it straight. Even if he did terminate, I don't think you can back date a termination

6:36 pm

lil*monkey

go mom! get Mr. Boss in trouble!

6:37 pm

Mom

the company he worked for did they have an employee's hand book?

6:37 pm

nancethefan

i've worked long enough before my back problems to know it's always about the bottom line, but, to fire him immediately causing him to lose his insurance is just plain nasty.

6:38 pm

lil*monkey

yes! handbook! read it!

6:38 pm

nancethefan

i will look into that aspect of it mom - thank you

6:38 pm

nancethefan

lil*monkey

they would know all the ins and outs of the applicable laws

6:40 pm

nancethefan

they are a small company (15 employees or less) which removes many of the restrictions when it comes to firing. at least he could have paid him severance. insteadl mr boss spent $2 million decorating his new beach home

6:40 pm

k21eyes

ooooo even better...drive by pooping at mr boss house!

6:40 pm

lil*monkey

ans we'll just get Mr. nance reinstated, and get Mr. Boss fired

6:46 pm

Mom

what kind of co. is it, Nance?

6:46 pm

Nance! I just had a fabulous idea! Call the local reporter at your paper and see if they are interested in the story... newspapers love drawing attention to scummy businesses

6:46 pm

6:46 pm

thanks, jilli! we've been common-law for a few years now... this just makes it "religious" but no official papers as of yet (we'll have to chase that down, methinks)

but it meant a great deal to hubby. his mother did not sanction his first marriage and he was not given a proper Hindu ceremony then.

9:03 pm

LadyNatts

but she loves me :D
