all she could think of was her daughter, very upset by my husband's to4 of voice. And she said the girl is afraid of us, just like our daughter is afraid of us (!). We are cruel parents, we have ridiculous houserules and she gets sick of us being 'polite'.

I managed to get almost one sentence out about Caya, asking if she realised nobody from their side had yet asked about her hand. And she said: "Of course not!"
1:22 am
loredana
oh what a shame for the child to have such parents she probably looked forward to coming to your home ....
1:22 am
sprite
she used to, yes. She was here quite a bit, with sleepovers and staying for dinner and such.
1:23 am
nDanLia
did you speak to school yet?
1:23 am
cybernan
down to 6, but too tired to finish -- see you tomorrow :)
1:24 am
loredana
sprite.. do not worry.. leave it up to the girls to sort it out. Another big hug for Caya she would not be used to that type of behaviour either (the mothers)
1:24 am
sprite
but the girl gets indoctrinated too. Because the teacher at school asked the girls to stay and talk it out, with him to help. And the girl only whined and said she did not want to talk about it.
1:24 am
loredana
cyber so close goodnight see you tomorrow
1:24 am

caya is dumbstruck at the behaviour of Mylene's parents.

1:25 am

but my girl is wiser than me. She is almost over it already. She says she hates the fight, is glad the actual row is over, and that since Mylene doesn't care about her hand at all, she cannot have been a real friend.
1:25 am

1:27 am
VolleymomDee
very creative! You just need a bright yellow background to make it stand out!
1:28 am
sprite
I was very hurt by that accusation that our kids are terrified of us. We wrote a letter to her teacher to tell what has happened, as background for him with the girls, but also to prevent some messy sordid attempt from them to get rumours going. The teacher has taught our son too, he knows us so very well.
1:28 am
VolleymomDee
hug huga!!!
1:28 am
sprite
oh , good idea, Dee! Let me try.
1:31 am
nDanLia
good step sprite, and very mature of Caya; people who make those accusations are often only mirroring their own fears of how they are percieved; too bad she had to experience either [hand/"friend"] though
1:32 am
sprite
hah, shocking! Thanks Dee, it is done!
1:32 am
VolleymomDee
let me refresh, so I may see it!
1:32 am

gorgeous!!!
1:32 am

thanks nDan, yes I would have given anything to protect her from this, but alas, we cannot. And now that I see how she takes it, I am once again soooo proud of her. As I am daily.

Hugabugs
down to 17 - time to hit the list
1:33 am
VolleymomDee
wtg hug!!!
1:34 am
sprite
the teacher let Mylene go with the request to think it over again, because it was no use talking if one party refused to talk. And when she was gone, he said to Caya that people who are mad sometimes say ugly and untrue things just to be able to stay mad.
1:35 am
nDanLia
0, yeah for me, with huge monkey help
1:36 am
sprite
Caya told me yesterday that Mylene has been jealous of her quite often. I never knew. Maybe that is part of her mother's accusations to me that I am arrogant and always talking down to her. Because I know that is not true.
1:36 am
sprite
nDan, wtg!!!!!!!!!!!

2:01 am
meliae
now I will tell you a horrible story about what I did to my son....
2:01 am
meliae
he was aroound 3 years old at the time, my daughter was a tiny baby, I had him in my lap and was putting her on the seat beside me
and we were leaving my mothers house
2:02 am
sprite
yeah, it was. Hiccup over again, lol. Thanks mrP, she is and she does!
2:02 am
herinfernallady
Hi
2:02 am
meliae
he got into the truck and I slammed the door, (it was an old truck) and it didnt feel like it shut right, the baby was crying my son was crying, so I slammed the door again
2:02 am
MayneGuy
hi herein
2:02 am
herinfernallady
Waves
2:03 am
sprite
omg.... oh yes, I can relate to that. How terrible you must have felt, mel.
2:03 am
mrpresident
oh no meliae....
2:03 am
meliae
and then he screamed and I looked and his hand was in the door, I screamed opened the door and ran for my mothers house I was too scared to even look
2:04 am
sprite
(((((((((mel)))))))))
Awful!
2:04 am
meliae
my porr hubby had no idea what was going on, I just knew my son was going to have no fingers or something horrible, but all it did was mash them it did not even bleed, no borken bones nothing
2:04 am
sprite
another lovely icon, lady
2:04 am
herinfernallady
yeach
2:04 am
meliae
it was truly horrible
2:05 am
sprite
same happened to me with my son, the garden door and the neighbour I ran to. Did you feel like a criminal mother too?
2:05 am
herinfernallady
thanks Sprite
2:05 am
meliae
oh yes I think I cried more than he did
2:06 am
herinfernallady
Kids are fairly squishy and hard to break
2:06 am
meliae
we had a new rule after that, no car doors close until the kids waved their hands over their heads
2:06 am
sprite
same here. You feel like you should have known, but then again it is so natural to reclose a door when it doesn't close right.
2:06 am
mrpresident
that is like what I did to my daughter... I put her into her baby restraint on a really hot day... she was screaming and screaming and I was so fed up and tired, I just got in the car and drove home, ignoring her crying for the half hour trip.
2:06 am
sprite
awwwww mrP! Oh dear...
2:06 am
mrpresident
I got home and took her out of the car and noticed the horrible burn on her arm from the seatbelt buckle!!
2:07 am
meliae
oh no, poor you and poor baby I bet you were mortified
2:07 am
sprite
omg... of course. Poor you and poor Maddison.
2:07 am
mrpresident
I don't ignore crying at all since THAT doozie!
I cried and cried for months every time I thought of it
2:08 am
mrpresident
isn't it awful to do that to your kids?? I feel for all of us!
2:08 am
sprite
makes you feel so terribly guilty, doesn't it. I still feel so bad whenever I think of it.
2:08 am
mrpresident
too right !! I can't look at her straight when I think of that
2:08 am
meliae
and its bad enough you are a young mother and not so sure about things and then something like that happens
2:08 am
herinfernallady
yeach. I read today that the police are incredible peed off at a mother that failed to restrain her 4 year old properly and was in a car crash and the child is now horrible hurt. I used to scream at my exs kids mum for her stupidity of putting her 3 year old in the front seat (up to the age of 5 the kids are meant to wear a four point harness seat
2:09 am
mrpresident
yes meli... I had no bloody idea! she was a crier and I thought she was just being tired and not wanting to sleep...
I felt like a right bitch after that!
2:10 am
meliae
yes now days its sure laziness on the parents part to not put their kids in seats, back when my kids were little they did not even have them, other than those carrier things for the wee little babies
2:10 am
sprite
exactly mel! Always wondering if you are doing well enough, and then you make a terrible mistake like that and it is like going to pieces. I thought my son would be scared of me for the rest of his life. He isn't, thank God :)
2:10 am
herinfernallady
I did have a proper seat as a kid.
2:11 am
mrpresident
ah, is good if the kids are scared of you for the right reasons ;))
keeps them out of trouble!
2:11 am
meliae
yes it makes you feel so horrible you do everything to keep them safe and then an accident like that happens it just rips you up
2:11 am
meliae
when I was a kid we rode where ever in the back of the truck spawled out on the seats where ever you fit you sat
2:12 am
sprite
parents must take all safety precautions there are available. Not doing so is laziness indeed. We are their protectors. That is why it is unbearable if we hurt your kids ourselves, it feels so bloody awful if that happens.
2:12 am
meliae
we didnt even have seatbelts, well we probably did but no one used them
2:12 am
sprite
my kids definitely do not like the consequences of breaking the rules, lol. But they are never scared of us.
2:13 am
sprite
back then, things were less hectic too, mel.
2:13 am
herinfernallady
Meliae but also as kids we ate made mud pies and skinned our knees and we are still here
2:14 am
meliae
I remember one time when I was little and riding in my grandmothers station wagon, all of us kids (like 5 of us) were in the back all the seats were laid down and we were just back there goofing around, and grandmum had to slam on the breaks and all of kids flew clear into the back of her seat and some flipped over the seat into the front seat, luckily no one was hurt bad, but it could of been horrible
2:15 am
meliae
heck I ate worms when I was little LOL
2:15 am
sprite
exactly... that is why the seats are important. Parents learn, and society as a whole learns. Safety seats are mandatory (?) here now.
2:16 am
mrpresident
My daughter's best friend has a brother who drowned as a baby... the boy survived and is a vegetable... but the mother is destroyed.
She was in an institution for 2 years after it happened and is so old and grey now... she is younger than I but looks 70 and has no life in her eyes.
Just seeing that makes me realise that you are so fragile and a misguided accident can have a permanent impact that will never leave you.
It is too scary to think about, seeing her suffer, and her little boy
2:16 am
herinfernallady
Glue for me and playdo
2:16 am
sprite
kids still do, mel! Mine grew up eating sand and whatever happened to be in there.
2:16 am
herinfernallady
Wow Mr Pres that is sad.
2:17 am
sprite
that is so terrible, mrP! Yes, I can understand how it is impossible to forgive yourself. Even though accidents do happen, however hard you try to avoid them.
2:17 am
meliae
they are here as well, in fact if you dont have a seat for your baby they will not let you bring it home from the hospital, you can get them loaned to you for free from the motor vehicles department, and some fire stations
2:17 am
meliae
oh Mrp that is sooooo sad
2:17 am
mrpresident
It is very sad... terrible for the family and the kids suffer daily for what happened to their brother.
2:17 am

2:19 am
mrpresident
thank goodness for small miracles rolin
2:19 am
sprite
Dee: a friend of hers slammed the cardoor on it by accident and didn't realise it, didn't react to Caya's call to open it, nor my hubby's. AFterwards she was insulted by my hubby having yelled at her. She and her parents are mad at us and don't care about the hand.
Caya's hand is ok though, bruised, but not broken and even the skin is intact.
2:19 am

2:21 am

To preface, Walter was in intensive care for his first week. OK, in the dream, which I had when he was several months old, I "woke up" to find myself in an unfamiliar room, like a hotel room, but with some of my own things in it.
3:41 am
LoriP
G'd morning Babblers! I only have 212 words left to go!
3:42 am
MonkeyGames
I dreamed that I opened the door and walked into a long hallway. There I saw that there were rooms on both sides, like a hotel or a hospital. A nurse appeared, walking along, and I thought it must be a hospital.
3:42 am

3:43 am

the dream: i was in new york and walking down some side street. i met this polish girl and she was scared to go back to her apartment because of a creepy neighbour.
3:43 am
LoriP
lol, okay I'll ease back on my blistering pace.....
3:43 am
bfsog
I said I would walk her back to make sure she was safe. We walked into the building, past the creepy neighbours door without incident, she walked into her apartment but then BANG the door shut right in front of me.
She was screaming for help as it sounded like she was being attacked but i just ran :\
3:44 am
sprite
ew, monkey
3:44 am
sprite
very bad dream, bfsog!
3:44 am
MonkeyGames
Then they explained that Walter had actually died during that first week, and since then I had been in my own fantasy world, acting out having a living baby and raising him, really believing it, out of touch with everything. I started screaming, "No! No! It is't true! I will make this be a dream! I will make myself wake up where Walter is OK!" I told myself that if it was a psychosis I wanted it back. And I woke up, and he was OK, but still....
3:45 am
MonkeyGames
NASTY dreaf, bf!
3:45 am
sprite
argh MonkeyG, that is scary!
Let me tell you for sure that A. you are in the real world, whatever that might be and B. Walter is alive, real and very adorable.

Not exactly. He was three weeks early, born in the wee hours of the day they said he would not be premature and coule be born at home (which he was), but his lungs had lagged a tiny bit in development and one of them developed a hole, and he subsequently suffered a collapsed lung.
3:48 am
LoriP
yah, they're my only 2 so far
3:49 am
MonkeyGames
By which time we were luckily already at the hospital because he was a little small and the midwife thought a pediatrician should look at him.
3:49 am
westford
how fortunate
3:50 am
MonkeyGames
Yes indeed! He almost needed reanimation but his heart never stopped. Due to blood gas issues we were concerned about brain damage, but they did a full ultrasound workup when he was three days old and he is right as rain.
3:50 am

Well, as right as his parents are... we're weird.
3:51 am

stid, did I tell you about the cake I tried recently - using ground almonds instead of flour - 6 eggs, then drizzle with orange syrup
10:59 am
stidmama
I would dust IF we didn't have the forced air heat. In the winter it just stirs up all the particles again and makes one crazy. I cover the few things I need to keep pristine.

Finally sorted the insurance. Went yesterdat to the physio.

In Wales they normally start at 3, she wanted to come home at luchtime but did stay and ate all her lunch up
11:08 am

Not a problem. I'll send you my aunt's address... wait, better yet, e-mail! She could print it out and take it to him today.

My grandmother had to wear a school uiform, and she always had to werar her older sster's old ones and was teased.

our children normally start real school at 5 (kindergarten) -- preschool is optional but often starts at 3.

I wore a uniform in 6th and 7th grades when I was in a parochial school. The first year the uniform was new, the second year it wasn't. I looked pretty shabby next to some of the better-off students.

That was the idea when my grandmother went, but wearing hand-me-down uniforms meant that was not the case at all after all. She got bullied for being poor and unable to have her own new uniform.
11:15 am
MonkeyGames
One boy used to dip the ends of her braids in his ink well, and her mother had to be up all hours scrubbing and drying the uniform. Didn't have a spare.

A local United Way office realized that the organization had never received a donation from the town's most successful lawyer. The person in charge of contributions called him to persuade him to contribute. "Our research shows that out of a yearly income of at least $500,000, you give not a penny to charity. Wouldn't you like to give back to the community in some way?" The lawyer mulled this over for a moment and replied, "First, did your research also show that my mother is dying after a long illness, and has medical bills that are several times her annual income?" Embarrassed, the United Way rep mumbled, "Um ... no." The lawyer interrupts, "or that my brother, a disabled veteran, is blind and confined to a wheelchair?" The stricken United Way rep began to stammer out an apology, but was interrupted again. "Or that my sister's husband died in a traffic accident," the lawyer's voice rising in indignation, "leaving her penniless with three children?!" The humiliated United Way rep, completely beaten, said simply, "I had no idea..." On a roll, the lawyer cut him off once again, "So if I don't give any money to them, why should I give any to you?"

Two rednecks were looking at a Sears catalog and admiring the models. One says to the other, 'Have you seen the beautiful girls in this catalog?' The second one replies, 'Yes, they are very beautiful. And look at the price!' The first one says, with wide eyes, 'Wow, they ain't very expensive. At this price, I'm buying one!!' The second one smiles and pats him on the back. 'Good idea! Order one and if she's as beautiful as she is in the catalog, I will get one too.'
Three weeks later, the youngest redneck asks his friend, 'Did you ever receive the girl you ordered from the Sears catalog?'
The second redneck replies, 'No, but it shouldn't be long now. I got her clothes yesterday!

A blonde, wanting to earn some money, decided to hire herself out as a handyman-type and started canvassing a wealthy neighborhood. She went to the front door of the first house and asked the owner if he had any jobs for her to do. "Well, you can paint my porch. How much will you charge?" The blonde said, "How about 50 dollars?" The man agreed and told her that the paint and ladders that she might need were in the garage. The man's wife, inside the house, heard the conversation and said to her husband, "Does she realize that the porch goes all the way around the house?" The man replied, "She should. She was standing on the porch." A short time later, the blonde came to the door to collect her money. "You're finished already?" he asked. "Yes," the blonde answered, "and I had paint left over, so I gave it two coats." Impressed, the man reached in his pocket for the $50. "And by the way," the blonde added, "that's not a Porch, it's a Ferrari."

A blonde woman was speeding down the road in her little red sports car and was pulled over by a woman police officer who was also a blonde.
The blonde cop asked to see the blonde driver's license. She dug through her purse and was getting progressively more agitated. 'What does it look like?' she finally asked. The police woman replied, 'It's square and it has your
picture on it.' The driver finally found a square mirror in her purse, looked at it and handed it to the police woman. 'Here it is,' she said. The blonde officer looked at the mirror, then handed it back
saying, 'Okay, you can go. I didn't realize you were a cop. (Sorry lil*monkey)

missbeeze
where did they go i wonder? probably at the McDs!!
4:42 pm
missbeeze
did they close that or is it still there?
4:42 pm
pugmama763
probably hosp food sucks
4:43 pm
kje
no... they are in tests, but it is slowing down my note writing!!!
4:43 pm
carleekat
12 mins to go
4:43 pm
kje
and they could never make it to McD's on their own... one is 69, demented, on dialysis... other is 82, demented, pelvic fracture
4:44 pm
pugmama763
whenever I'm stuck in the hosp I get the take out menus from the nurses station for all the places that deliver (the RNs always have them)
4:44 pm
missbeeze
and clearly your babbling!
4:44 pm
kje
the thought of them getting to McD on their own is kinda funny though... in a very morbid way
4:44 pm
pugmama763
maybe they bribed the EMT's to take them!
4:44 pm
missbeeze
eek out! that is wacky, but quite morbidly so - lol - guess that is what makes it wacky
4:44 pm
kje
yep pug - good idea! the RNs will probably just order wherever you do!
4:45 pm
carleekat
ok..i am just closing early..and getting home..knackered..been a LONG day
4:45 pm
carleekat
ttfn *actual poof*
4:45 pm

I can actually see one of them bribing his tech to take him... he was c/o the food
4:45 pm
pugmama763

4:45 pm
lynxxx

4:45 pm

4:46 pm
kje
Bee!!! can you believe they have a McD!!! just annoys the heck out of me!!!
4:46 pm
missbeeze

4:47 pm
pugmama763
like main lining cement...
4:47 pm
missbeeze
yes, but Pugster, it is in the hospital!
4:47 pm
kje

4:47 pm
pugmama763

4:48 pm

7:49 pm
icepyro
I couldn't stomach the dnc, so while I would find the rnc even more humorous, I just don't see the need to torment myself
7:50 pm
Dorens
since we were on vacation we really didn't watch... i tuned in a couple of times... for the most part i find them abominable.... all the smugness and self-serving bombastic rhetoric
7:50 pm
kje
I find it fascinating... of annoying and scream inducing
7:51 pm
icepyro
meh. I also don't see the need to watch someone I dont intend to vote for speak.
7:51 pm
kje
but I feel like I have to watch to be informed... I don't like only hearing the pundits spins after the fact
7:51 pm
pam
I do, too, kje
7:51 pm
pam
I think they are all full of themselves, and the excerpts Palin released and are quoted on cnn show she is in attack mode.
7:51 pm
icepyro
yeah media does more bashing than either candidates this year
7:51 pm
kje
I disagree ice - I feel like I should know what both sides are saying...
7:51 pm
pam
I am more and more intrigued by what passes for politics
7:52 pm
lbdawger
gotta go, would love to visit about this but, 3:30 comes way too fast.
7:52 pm
redturtlehead
Good Evening all, anyone up for some Project rUNway?
7:52 pm
kje
pam - it is frightening
7:52 pm
icepyro
true, I've been keeping up on some of it, but for the most part I have my candidate picked
7:52 pm
Dorens
well i have a good book to read, so i'll just kinda look up from time to time. and yes it is mucho frightening
7:52 pm
Dorens
night dawgers
7:52 pm
kje
but I don't know that it has really changed that much... looking back historically at some of the previous elections, we may be tamer in some ways
7:53 pm
Dorens
sorry, red i don't even know what that is and i think i probably don't need to
7:53 pm
icepyro
and while he will very unlikely to win at least I will know who I voted for
7:53 pm
pam
I think it is tamer on the surface and more dangerous beneath--the issues are glossed over so garbage can be discussed...
7:53 pm
kje
red - not a fan.... but who was it that was on earlier that was??? can't remember, miss beeze maybe?
7:53 pm
redturtlehead
Just a tv show dorens.
7:54 pm
icepyro
tamer is different than becoming sheep
7:54 pm
mkg
hi all. back for last 68 words.
7:54 pm
pam
And now, all the speeches become available on CNN and youtube the next day
7:54 pm
Dorens
that's what i thought red... and i don't have enough time in the day for my life - so a new tv show would be deadly
7:54 pm
Dorens
exactly pam. you can watch anything at any time
7:54 pm
redturtlehead
lol....
7:55 pm
redturtlehead
its my fav and lately only show.
7:55 pm
kje

7:55 pm
redturtlehead

7:56 pm
kje
I am peeved with you.... and not much one can do... but know that I am peeved with you : )
7:56 pm
Dorens

7:56 pm
kje
coffee beeping - yay - going to have coffee and cookies : )
7:57 pm
Dorens
glad you qualified that kj
7:57 pm
kje
well, just in case I get crazy later on... you will know it isn't the coffee's fault : )
7:58 pm
redturtlehead
wpeeved because the man is supposed to call back, but whatever....
7:58 pm
Dorens
anyone need a clue before i leave?////what man, red?
7:58 pm
pam
sorry, red...
7:59 pm
redturtlehead
long story dorens, but whatever...life is hard for me in this way.
7:59 pm
Dorens
sorry. it might turn around someday, don't despair
7:59 pm
