lil*monkey

4:40 am
lil*monkey
i just love talking to myself :)
4:40 am
jacq
hey monkey, what on earth are you doing up so early?
4:40 am
jacq
and how many ex words are there?
4:41 am
lil*monkey
woke up at 5.... there are 4 EX words in this order: 6,5,4,5
4:42 am
jacq
at 5? is that normal?
4:42 am
sprite
morning all. Short and sweet or tiny and tight?
4:43 am
lil*monkey
no, not normal... i usually awaken around 6 , but BF and I went to a crab feast last night and I woke earlier than usual very thirsty and hungry
4:43 am
lil*monkey
morning sprite!
4:43 am
FMitch
Short and sweet with a couple of oddballs thrown in.
Morning all
4:43 am
jacq
did you enjoy yourselves?
4:43 am
lil*monkey
my hands still hurt from cracking those crabs
4:43 am
sprite
hi FM :)
Hi lil*monkey and jacq
4:43 am
lil*monkey
hey, don't call me an oddball :)
4:44 am
jacq
how many words?
4:44 am
lil*monkey
92 words
4:44 am
sprite
FM: welcome to the age of miracles. My father wrote a letter back and acknowledged what he has done to me is wrong, and he takes responsibility for the man he was.
4:44 am
lil*monkey
jacq, you should go pro
4:44 am
sprite
afraid of flattery, lil!?
4:45 am
jacq
wow sprite, good for you, i hope it gives you some degree of comfort and closure
4:45 am
FMitch
Oh my goodnes sprite, thats more than one could have hoped for!
4:45 am
jacq
monkey, i don't have a credit card or paypal
4:45 am
lil*monkey
sprite, it's amazing!
4:45 am
sprite
absolutely, I had never expected this.
4:46 am
lil*monkey
oh i'm sorry, jacq
4:46 am
FMitch
((spritey))
4:46 am
sprite
he also claims he is very different from the man I knew, and that he hopes we can maybe get to know eachother all over again as the people we are now.
4:46 am
lil*monkey
can i somehow buy it as a gift for you? would that be possible?
4:46 am
jacq
how do you feel about that?
4:47 am
jacq
are you talking to me monkey?
4:47 am
sprite
lil*, yes, that is possible, it happens a lot on babble. We tend to gift nice new babblers with prodom, sometimes.
4:47 am
lil*monkey
sprite, i urge you to give him a chance... i don't know your whole story, but my dad turned over a new leaf after he survived cancer, and we have a great relationship now :) I never DREAMED that could happen
4:47 am
lil*monkey
yes, jacq :)
4:47 am
sprite
how do I feel about that... not sure yet. Thinking, feeling. Wanting to take things very very slow.
4:48 am
jacq
i'll sort out paypal when i start back full time at work, but thank you for the thought
4:48 am
sprite
but yeah, I think I will give him a new chance, slowly. Step by step.
4:48 am
jacq
i think you should take it slowly, but you need to sort out the emotions this will and probably has raised
4:49 am
sprite
the only thing that could have changed my decision to keep him as far from me as possible, was for him to actually acknowledge the past and to take responsibility, which I knew he never would. So there I go, with all that certainty... he just did exactly that.
4:50 am
FMitch
It will probably take a little time to get used that that fact alone!
4:51 am
lil*monkey
i took it slowly, step by step too, sprite
4:51 am
sprite
oh yes, lol. It is like a total culture shock. He used to blame me for everything, from his mood to the weather.
4:51 am
FMitch
I don't want a clue but can anyone tell me if the le8 is a normal word?
4:52 am
lil*monkey
it's a word i'm not familiar with, FM... not used in cnversation
4:52 am
sprite
what I am thinking now is, to start getting acquainted through letters first. If all goes well, maybe telephone later. After that, let's see what happens. How does that sound?
4:53 am
jacq
sounds wise sprite, very wise
4:53 am
FMitch
Sigh, thanks.
4:53 am
lil*monkey
sprite, that sounds wonderful!!!!
4:53 am
lil*monkey
let me know if you want a clue, FM
4:53 am
jacq
i wish you all the best in this, and i sincerely hope it all goes smoothly
4:53 am
lil*monkey
i do too, sprite :)
4:53 am
sprite
I am so happy for you you did, lil*monkey, and that it resulted in a great relationship. Who knows what will happen here, and if I don't give it a chance, I will nevevr know. But I need to watch my boundaries.
4:54 am
jacq
i don't know your story but i do know from experience, that if you let this opportunity pass you may regret it for a long time
4:54 am
lil*monkey
thank you sprite :)
4:54 am
lil*monkey
yes, i agree jacq
4:55 am
sprite
in short, my father draw me through hell. I suffer from ptss as a result of his upbringing and that will be a handicap to me for the rest of my life. But I also know that people learn from life, and they can change. I feel now, that with my pain and damage acknowledged, there might be room for healing between us.
4:57 am
sprite
and I am a true believer in healing.
4:57 am
jacq
i'm sorry for the hell you went through sprite and i do wish you all the good things that can be found in this new beginning
4:57 am
lil*monkey
that will be your decision sprite :) You're in control of how much or how little contact you have
4:57 am
lil*monkey
i will be sending good karma to you, sprite :)
4:58 am
sprite
yes, that is true, that is a good thing to keep in mind. He opened conversations out of the blue last month, with an unpleasantly short, cold letter and a bunch of pictures, and the order to contact him.
5:00 am
sprite
I wrote back, thanking him for the pictures and telling him I live with the past every day of my life, that I cannot afford to invite unnecessary hurt into my life now and that his letter did not at all suggest there was anything else to expect but more hurt. So that I would not stay in contact with him.
5:01 am
sprite
Then he wrote another kind of letter, in which he regretted he had been so short and cold while he did not intend to be that way. And that he would accept my refusal to not have contact, but that he regretted it very much. I meant to leave it at that.
5:01 am
lil*monkey
sprite, your safety and feelings are Number 1. Tread carefully ... your peace and serenity come first :)
5:02 am
jacq
i agree, please be careful that your need for closure and admissions do not allow him to continuehis abuse
5:02 am
sprite
but it kept churning in my, of course, so finally I decided to tell him, for once in my life, what kind of father he had been to me and what it had done to me, and ask him a lot of questions on the why and how could you. It was a tough letter to write. I told him all the bad memories and the few good ones I have of him.
5:03 am
lil*monkey
sounds like you have made some big strides with him already, sprite... i think you're off to a good start and your idea to keep it to letter-writing for now is a good one
5:03 am
sprite
and I told him I couldn't be other than extremely cautious and careful when it came to things he wanted or said.
5:03 am
sprite
I thought that would be the very last of it, lol
5:05 am
sprite
He has never been able to listen, let alone take some criticism. But he has clearly read the whole letter, and let it in, and he has come back with a very honest and adult letter. So... well, who knows. I am going to let it rest for a couple of days, and then I am going to write back another kind of letter. Let's see where it will take us.
5:05 am
sprite
thanks a bunch to you for letting me vent and share, and for caring :D
5:05 am
lil*monkey
sprite, i'll be thinking about you and sending lots of positivity :)
5:06 am
sprite
thanks lil*monkey, that is great. It helps.
5:13 am

Sprite... just read some of the chat. You have had further correspondence with your father, which appears to the opposite of what you expected, based on your experiences. I wish for you, all the best for the roads ahead, may they be smooth, and your feelings and emotions are respected and taken care of. take care. *hugs*
5:30 am
elder
Sprite.... love your icon... :)

8:33 am
crosshair
My heart has rooms that sigh with dust
And ashes in the hearth.
They must be cleaned and blown away
By daylight's breath.
But I cannot essay the task,
For even dust to me is dear;
For dust and ashes still recall,
My love was here
"I know not how to say Farewell,
When Farewell is the word
That stays alone for me to say
Or will be heard.
But I cannot speak out that word
Or ever let my loved one go
How can I bear it that these rooms
Are empty so?
"I sit among the dust and hope
That dust will cover me.
I stir the ashes in the hearth,
Though cold they be.
I cannot bear to close the door,
To seal my loneliness away
While dust and ashes yet remain
Of my love's day."

8:35 am

I awoke from my sleep, or so I thought,
Arose from my bed, then I was caught.
By a surly yeti and heavily armed cow,
they pushed and said, "come with us now."
Into the trunk of and old coupe deville,
and off to the town of creepy lighthouse ville.
Where I was tossed in a dark room,
left in the dust, dark and gloom.
The cow said "If you move you get shot."
We're ransoming you till fresh hay is got.
The yeti said, "I'm just here for the fun,
but the stupid cow won't give me a gun."
The had them a scuffle, so much they fought,
then the yeti was armed, the cow was not.
the day was long, the hour was late,
and me and my yeti set off on a date.

so do you guys like a big grid or does it depend on how busy each of you are for the day
10:57 am
ddb4nana

10:57 am
Pinikula
depends on easy/hard the words are...
10:57 am
Pinikula
depends on how...
10:58 am
Jellen
It really depends, sandy. Sometimes these little ones are real bears.
10:58 am
BzznBea
I like a big grid as I have no life other than babble
10:58 am
harpjane
i like the big ones on days' when i have time, because you usually get lots of words FAST
10:58 am
kje
OK, have an orange, will do better now
10:58 am
sandyloo

11:05 am
kje
log out, then follow the directions at www.playbabble.com
11:05 am
sandyloo
ah ok-does it cost
11:05 am
kje
you will need to set up your own name, do not necessarily have to go pro (but we like to see something besides a gray head)
11:06 am
Jellen
Not at first, but you lose some features after the first two weeks.
11:06 am
kje
pro costs $14.95 US once... not monthly or anything, but if you do not go pro, it costs nothing
11:06 am
sandyloo
ok-so i put my dog up or something-need a pic first though
11:06 am
kje
but yes, you will lose the tile stats after 2 weeks
11:06 am
Jellen
It's only $15 (one-time) to go pro...it's worth it!

11:22 am
Kazozz
sept 8th is toilets lmao
11:23 am
kje
I think miss beeze may have suggested that one

2:23 pm
redshoes
question before I go...you know the phrase "it's like shooting fish in a barrel"? Have people actually tried that? Wouldn't it just put a whole in the side of the barrel, really? and does the barrel have water? or is it just fish? Because wouldn't all the water run out of the hole you just shot through the barrel? I mean, if there wasn't water the fish would pretty much already be dead, right? But if the fish were alive in water, couldn't one hypothetically still miss?
these are the things that keep me up (needlessly, I might add) at night. =)
2:23 pm

2:25 pm

i *think* they found that shooting fish in a barrel is indeed very very easy. but i think they tried various guns and i don't remember if some worked and some didn't... you could probably look it up on their site.
2:25 pm
BerniceQ
couldn't you shoot them with a bow and arrow, which wouldn't make a hole in the barrell?
2:25 pm
pugmama763

3:24 pm

3:24 pm

3:25 pm
sprite
my daughter's friend didn't realise what happened, caya told her to open the door, but she didn't react. My husband yelled at her: open the door! Then she opened the wrong door.
3:25 pm
Lindrickway
well mo, I love the Stranglers and I love London so.....
3:25 pm
pugmama763
well I'd say more but there is a certain percentage that are easy to just ignore!
3:25 pm
MetFan
Will definitely go on utube later to check it out!!
3:25 pm
icepyro
omg sprite
3:25 pm
pugmama763
so the child is a bloody dunce
3:26 pm
sprite
So my husband yelled: not that one, the other one! In the mean time he had jumped out of the car and gotten the door open and our daughter loose. He gave the other girl her stuff, drove our daughter home and started cooling the swelling.
3:26 pm
sprite
no, the child is just a child, accidents happen
3:26 pm
Lindrickway
ouch sprite!
3:26 pm
MetFan
Ouch! So how is she?
3:26 pm
mo
is she ok sprite?
3:26 pm
sprite
5 minutes later the dad called my husband. How he got it in his stupid head to yell at HIS daughter, that the girl was upset because of my hubby and that he wouldn't allow the girls to be friends anymore
3:27 pm
sprite
he did not even ask how Caya was doing!
3:27 pm
MetFan
So the father of the other kid is a dunce....
3:27 pm
mo
what a low life.
3:27 pm
sprite
my girl is ok. We cooled for about 30 minutes, the skin is intact, it will be black and blue, but not too swollen tomorrow, we think
3:27 pm
MetFan
No bones broken?
3:27 pm
sprite
yeah, I don't blame the girl. Things like that happen, and often we react slowly when it does
3:28 pm
sprite
nothing broken. Thank God.
3:28 pm
pugmama763
what a monumental jerk the father is!
3:28 pm
Lindrickway
oh that is a blessing
3:28 pm
MetFan
Should have it checked, anyhow - could be something underlying....
3:28 pm
sprite
I am totally pissed off at the father
3:28 pm
pugmama763
glad she is ok sprit
3:28 pm
pugmama763
ooops sprite even
3:29 pm
sprite
not the kid.
Yeah, we will keep a close watch on her fingers for a while.
3:29 pm
icepyro
did he not hear about the fact that her hand was caught in the door? I mean if you yelled at my kid (if I had one) for no reason, to address a situation that needs quick reaction thats another and I dont mind that
3:29 pm
MetFan
Just shows how some people are idiots...
3:29 pm
sprite
well, she is not ok. She is totally upset about losing her friend like this. I told her we cannot solve it right now, but we will let that jerk cool off and then open conversations again.
3:29 pm
icepyro
ok that cameo out jumbled thought *shrug*
3:30 pm
sprite
exactly, icepyro. Nobody is gentle and sweetvoiced in a situation like that.
3:30 pm
mo
it would be a shame if they cant be friends again.
3:31 pm
MetFan
Really, because of the stupidity of a supposed "adult"...
3:31 pm
pugmama763
supposed being the operative word...
3:31 pm
sprite
well, I am kinda hoping the mum is a little more levelheaded. As far as I know her, she is. And kids will be kids, I sure hope the other girl will stop hiding her sense of guilt behind a dramatic act about my husband yelling at her.
3:32 pm
Lindrickway
I'm sure her mum will be more sensible sprite
3:32 pm
mo
your husband was right ... it was a natural reaction.
3:32 pm
sprite
yeah, often kids are more adult than parents. My daughter sat in my arms, her hand in a cold pack, her other hand with my cell calling her friend, because she thought her friend would have been in shock too and she wanted to tell her it wasn't as bad as it first looked.
3:33 pm
Lindrickway
aaww how sweet
3:33 pm
sprite
thanks guys. Wonderful to be able to vent and hear you say I am right to be mad.
3:33 pm
MetFan
Kids are so pure until adults get hold of them, and supress all of that....
3:33 pm
mo
your daughter sounds like a thoughtful child ... good for her.
3:33 pm
Lindrickway
anytime sprite (0:
3:33 pm
sprite
they did not answer, apparently because they were having the dramatics...
3:34 pm
MetFan
Give them time....
3:34 pm
sprite
Caya is a beautiful person.
3:34 pm
icepyro
well sounds like everyone needs to cool and the friend will get over your husband enough to be friends again whether the parents want to or not
3:34 pm
sprite
we have a busy day tomorrow, aikido first and a high tea after, so monday is soon enough. We will see.
3:35 pm
mo
hope everything turns out ok sprite.
3:36 pm
sprite
yeah, me too. I will try my best for the girls.
3:36 pm
sprite
thought I would love to give the jerk a piece of my tongue ;)

3:41 pm
mo
