Congrats to Maddison on getting to Points!!! Always wanted to be there. Tell her Margot Fonteyn went to the same school in Shanghai that I did (but before me) and I actually met her in Montreal. My parents knew her parents and her real name was Peggy Hookham. Or maybe she's never heard of Margot Fonteyn?

12:40 am

texphile

I thought that proper nouns did not count or are you saying you have the wines??

12:40 am

jan

My typing suggests I've partaken of the Greek and Hungarian wine...

12:41 am

justafreep

hmmm, jan. mine wasn't happy or not. maybe there's two?

12:41 am

jillibus

tex, some proper nouns can also be improper

8:38 am

MonkeyGames

Danny is sick too but no fever and no ear and throat issues and so on, so he's staggering around taking the trash out and stuff. Walter is well and thus frustrated with us but being a Good Boy.

8:52 am

redturtlehead

COffee in PB robwhy.

8:52 am

MonkeyGames

It happens.

8:53 am

sprite

related to the ear, was the answer, MonkeyG.

8:53 am

MonkeyGames

Ah yes, thanks. Not at my sharpest this afternoon.

8:53 am

sprite

am trying to remember them... they have been in a recent grid and drove me bananas...

8:54 am

MonkeyGames

The first three letters are obvious... but the rest elude me.

8:54 am

sprite

same here

8:54 am

MonkeyGames

OH! Got one. I have it right NOW in fact!

8:54 am

MonkeyGames

An ear infection, that is.

8:55 am

MonkeyGames

Then just change the last letter.

8:55 am

redturtlehead

yes you do Monkey!!!! Good Going!

8:55 am

sprite

ow... that should help. Though I am sorry you have it. IRL. Not as babble word. Ah well.

8:55 am

sprite

(was I babbling just yet?)

8:55 am

robwhy

ok it seems like there is an extra vowel in there that gets in the way of the ear infection

8:56 am

MonkeyGames

Sigh. I have only ever had one before, about 12 years ago when I had an illegal job shoveling stables duting a heat wave and had a high fever. Several years later the ear, which I thought had been permanantly damaged, made a popping sound, and I literally felt a cool breeze blow into my head-- and then I could hear well again on that side. This is that same ear.

8:57 am

MonkeyGames

No extra vowel, Rob...

8:58 am

robwhy

duh. was overlooking the second consonant

8:58 am

redturtlehead

at the risk of promoting ER use for no er things, Monkey, ist there some sort of clinic, or Emergency place you could head to for some relief?

8:58 am

NonoNanette

change the last letter for the other ot6

8:59 am

robwhy

there is nothing worse than an ear i nfection. get help asap

8:59 am

MonkeyGames

Yeah, I called them and they said it really doesn't sound bacterial, so of course there's nothing to be done about it so I didn't go now.

8:59 am

MonkeyGames

This one is not as bad as that other one was... I will go to a GP tomorrow.

9:00 am

redturtlehead

Well, tylenol, motrin...you can also try some sort of warm compress to the ear and jaw area.

9:00 am

NonoNanette

re9... remember the past

9:00 am

MonkeyGames

At the moment it's hard to say what's worst-- the raw throat, the ear, or the eye that wants clawing out. But this shall pass... Yes, Red, thanks, dosing regularly on Tylenol and using hot compresses. Might go sit in teh shower again soon and steam my head too.

9:00 am

sprite

oh I know that one. *kicks brain awake*

9:01 am

redturtlehead

Can someone clue me some N from the left hand corner, then I might have NBT.

9:11 am

MonkeyGames

Yes, Rob! Drop the last two from the one you keep posting, then add endings.

9:13 am

9:24 am

9:24 am

lil*monkey

he's really soft-spoken, great smile, polite, made eye contact, asked my name and if I liked the movie, we chatted a bit about the movie, I was holding my program and he offered to sign it. He shook hands with me. I was surprised at how much handsomer he looks in person

9:25 am

10:34 am

rururocks

10:35 am

Pinikula

if it's the school for priests, it's not related

10:35 am

rururocks

no not yet... trying to get as many as I can without the list first...I am coming to the end of that though lol

10:35 am

rururocks

Hello all. I'm back. I never did get my nap. Kids don't understand concept of "leave Mommy alone". <sigh> They all just left on a quest for Purim costumes but the window for sleep may have passed.

10:38 am

10:44 am

10:44 am

Michnick

Me too MG, been already a week!

10:44 am

MonkeyGames

Thanks. Pinkeye caught from the neighbor that has turned into an ear infection as well with swollen glands and sore throat and the works. Oh well, this too shall pass. Unless I do claw my eye out...

10:45 am

MonkeyGames

Poor you Michnick!

10:45 am

Runnerbean

Krista have you got the ya46 if so add pst minus p

10:45 am

Michnick

Poor you too!

10:45 am

MonkeyGames

The ye6 usually goes along with "year" as one word...

10:45 am

Pinikula

re9 = most of the eye word + alt spelling of not day (pl)

10:45 am

Sally-catlover

Krista, do you have the first ya 4/6? It's the superlative of that.

10:46 am

Michnick

11:05 am

i need to go grocery shopping...hard to get motivated for that..my most despised chore

11:05 am

Michnick

Hi everyone who just popped in.

11:05 am

Krista

hi red! remembering wet dog smell..

11:05 am

CiociaJudy

hi Mich

11:05 am

kje

i love grocery shopping... but that is likely b/c most of it is fun as i cook stuff i like, don't have to worry about the kid factor

11:05 am

redturtlehead

Krista, if you gave me a list and money...I love to shop, if you would shampoo carpet for me.

11:06 am

Michnick

Oh Krista, my kids fight over the privilege to go food shopping. I always feel like I'm Tom Sawyer with a fence to paing!

11:06 am

Michnick

mean paint

11:06 am

redturtlehead

and do my taxes....

11:06 am

Krista

i dont get it..i love to eat, love to cook...just hate the choosing and schlepping

11:06 am

redturtlehead

krista, maybe you should get the home delivery, or the shop on line option?

11:06 am

Krista

i'll do your taxes, but you're stuck with the carpet ;)

11:07 am

circe

hi to all today

11:07 am

Krista

that's funny, Mich..it's even worse when i take the kids

11:07 am

redturtlehead

Well, thats something, I have 3 state rturns this year, and the federal.

11:07 am

Michnick

Of course it is! When I show up at the market alone the checkers always ask me if I snuck out! LOL

11:07 am

kje

no state returns in TX red... I'm just saying : )

11:08 am

Pinikula

if the kids are old enough, krista, give them each their own list and let them do the shopping...(after a crash course in how to find the best deal, too)

11:08 am

Krista

i already belong to three food co-ops, so shopping is minimal, really...i just need to get over it....yuck, no wonder you dont want to do taxes, red

11:08 am

redturtlehead

None in Florida either!!!

11:08 am

redturtlehead

I'm a Floridian as of April 14.

11:08 am

Pinikula

congrats, red ;)

11:08 am

Michnick

Now my oldest has his license he'll sometimes shop for me, but he won't make decisions, if they don't have exactly what's on my list, he moves on to the next item.

11:08 am

Pinikula

brb - gotta change icon

11:08 am

CiociaJudy

good for you red

11:08 am

Krista

one kid at a time isn't so bad, but when i have them together its chaos...my 13 year old is a huge help

11:09 am

circe

huh, I just sent the husband and both kids to do the shopping! :) but I feel your pain

11:09 am

redturtlehead

Now if someone would like to purchase my Pretty home.

11:09 am

Michnick

That's a cute idea Pink, with 7 kids I'd be able to get a coffee & a paper and wait in the car.

11:09 am

kje

for goodness sake, red.... not the house!!!!

11:09 am

Michnick

How many kids Krista?

11:09 am

Krista

Do you think you'll stay there, Red? My sister went in '83 and never left.

11:10 am

redturtlehead

I want to stay in Florida, its odd but I love it. I thougth I would hate it.

11:10 am

Krista

Circe, that's the best way to do it. :) Hubby usually goes but he is busy today....two Mich..almost 8 year old boy and 13.5 girl

11:10 am

redturtlehead

kje, there are so many good jobs for Geriatricians at UNC and Duke...

11:11 am

11:11 am

I love to send them, today's list was a short one, but the peace is nice here and there.

11:11 am

em6 - something to induce vomiting

11:11 am

Michnick

I always tell my (younger) kids that they get to pick any single treat they want when we get to the checkout as long as they wait until then to ask. totally cut out whining and bargaining the whole way through.

11:11 am

Krista

You have seven? Wow. I would be a disaster with that many...you must be organized.

11:11 am

movieman

missing two 9s......i have re9 and se9 x2

11:12 am

kim m

got that one...looking for the 6/21

11:12 am

Pinikula

although I don't have 'em, mm...they are ni9 and re9

11:12 am

Michnick

I don't know about organized, not nearly where I think I should be!

11:12 am

kim m

NM...found it ...thanx all ...done

11:12 am

redturtlehead

I dont think I could manage seven kids. or one. Speaking of multiple children, Has anyone heard if California is going to let Octo Mom try to raise the 14 children?

11:12 am

redturtlehead

Congrats Kim m!!!!!!!!!!!!!

11:12 am

wow, mich...the motto with my girls is: "Those who ask, don't get" (when it comes to shopping)

woohoo Kim

11:14 am

Krista

I have not heard, Red...did you see Dr Phil interviews with her?

11:14 am

circe

today I read thst she turned down help -- visiting angels would help with 24/7 care, development etc. no cost ans she said no.

11:14 am

joshuavorbis

krista - to answer your question from several minutes ago, i did have fun last night - did you?

11:14 am

circe

congrats kim

11:14 am

Michnick

Yeh Pink, that's basically the rule with us too. But they know if they don't ask they will get at the end. It keeps them quiet checking during each aisle what they may ask for.

11:14 am

redturtlehead

I didnt, I am not a fan of Dr Phil. If she cant prove she can care for the kids, the state will take them...

11:15 am

Krista

lol...good to hear, Joshua..nah, went to bed early..I partied last weekend and am still recovering, lol

11:15 am

Pinikula

On one hand, I think she should be held responsible for the cost of all of the children; on the other hand, I don't think the children should suffer at her inability to do so.

11:15 am

rururocks

octomom is a very ill person

11:15 am

Pinikula

exactly, mich

11:15 am

rururocks

an 6/18 anyone?

11:16 am

Michnick

How could she refuse help? I think that letting her take them all home would be a crime. I am a big advocate for allowing birth parents the right to try and parent but not her!!

11:16 am

kje

an with oil... biblical

11:16 am

redturtlehead

I personally think there are several potentially adoptive parents who are better qualified to offer those kids the love and care they will need.

11:16 am

Krista

Those interviews affirmed that for me, Ruru

11:16 am

Pinikula

thx kje

11:16 am

rururocks

no wonder I didn't see it.. not a fan of the catholic church

11:16 am

circe

I wondered it if was a first step in proving her incompetant to raising them? turning down help seems preety dumb to me

11:17 am

kje

an is not catholic

11:17 am

redturtlehead

I can never figure how the Moms I work with take care of the expense of even one child.

11:17 am

Michnick

I agree red. The home assessment that is done before adoption almost ensures adoptive parents being better than she would.

11:17 am

rururocks

it isn't?

11:17 am

Krista

that's what Dr Phil said to her..she wasn't even CLOSE to being qualified to even foster ONE kid

11:18 am

Krista

it's Christian, but not specifically Catholic, ruru

11:18 am

redturtlehead

Financially better, and generally when people go through the long adoption process they have the wherewithal and desire to schlep the child to the many developmental appintments those kids are going to need, speech therapy,possibly physical therapy....

11:18 am

Michnick

Red, it's not a question. For most of us 'normal' parents it's an issue of predetermined priorities. On paper I don't think we can afford two kids but somehow we manage with 7.

11:18 am

rururocks

not too big on the christian right either

11:18 am

Erda

All she probably wanted was to get attention and get on TV -- sure got that

11:19 am

Pinikula

she's not even stable enough to fess up to having had plastic surgery...I mean, come on...her before/after pictures are a definite sign

11:19 am

Krista

not necessarily Christian, either, now that I think about it...

11:19 am

rururocks

fifteen minutes of fame and 18 years of child raising .. not too bright that one

11:19 am

redturtlehead

ruru, it doesnt have to be a Christian word, think about putting oil on somthing. in a religious way, even in a Wiccan way if that helps.

11:19 am

Michnick

I'm confused, are you - ruru & Krista talking about octo mom or about the grid?

11:19 am

Krista

i think we are talking about the an word

11:20 am

redturtlehead

ruru is talking about an an word the rest of us are talking about octo mom.

11:20 am

rururocks

both mich..

11:20 am

Michnick

OH, ty, got the word, I kept trying to connect my conversation with red & yours about the an word! LOL

11:20 am

Pinikula

Regardless of how the children might be separated, I do hope they stay in contact with each other - it wasn't their fault...

11:20 am

Erda

"bright" is not a word I'd use for octomom

11:20 am

Krista

so true, red...having one developmentally challenged kid is a full-time job

11:21 am

Michnick

How about selfish, unthinking, sociopath, self centered, (Should I go on?)

11:21 am

rururocks

not for sarah palin............

11:21 am

Michnick

Having one normal kid that will end up emotionally healthy with decent self esteem is a full time job!

11:21 am

kje

let it go ru

11:21 am

Erda

Oh PLEASE ruru.....

11:22 am

Krista

hee hee

11:22 am

rururocks

lol

11:22 am

redturtlehead

Mich, it really is frightening, luckily this is an exception not the rule.

11:22 am

Michnick

Thank G-d that's true!

11:23 am

Krista

i have more of an issue with the dr than Octomom herself..there are always going to be crazies who ask you to do things..but that's what ethics are for

11:23 am

rururocks

The Doctor who performed the implantation should lose his license..

11:23 am

kje

agree

11:23 am

Michnick

I am off for a little rest till the little ones come back, bye all!

11:23 am

Krista

how many, Mich? I'm only up to 164

11:24 am

I think Parenting is very difficult. Theres so much pressure to do this and that...and kids are under a lot of pressure as well.

11:24 am

Pinikula

agreed...the doctor should be footing a large cost of the multi-million dollar bill it's going to cost to raise all 14!

11:24 am

redturtlehead

I have 153

11:24 am

kje

not b/c she had other kids... but b/c it is not accepted practice to implant so many embryos... wonder wtf he was thinking

11:24 am

rururocks

bbl.. have to meet a client in the rain

11:24 am

rururocks

tata!

Pinikula

11:25 am

Pinikula

11:25 am

redturtlehead

Yes exactly kje. THey say it was because she always had that many implanted and they never took before, but...

11:25 am

kje

no prob... you aren't sugar and won't melt

11:25 am

Krista

hard to imagine, isn't it, kje? bye ruru..stay dry

11:25 am

Pinikula

ciao judy

11:25 am

Pinikula

no kidding, kje

11:25 am

Krista

ciao ciocia, lol

11:25 am

bichon

I'd like to know how octomom paid for all those invitros when she's on disability?

11:25 am

kje

bye judy

11:25 am

Krista

but he knew she was against selective reduction

11:25 am

redturtlehead

I just walked 2.5 miles in the pouring rain...sun came out at the end which made me feel unlucky.

11:26 am

Pinikula

that's what I was just thinking, bichon...she claims she saved the money to have the proceedures...i guess she forgot that she'd have another 18 years to pay to raise them, too..

11:26 am

redturtlehead

I think he has to be as nuts as she is.

11:26 am

bichon

How do you save money when you're on a limited income? Beats me

11:27 am

DR1965

yea! Finally a grey tile

11:27 am

Krista

and someone paid for the lips, too...no one looks right when they have that done...not sure people do that..always look like two slugs crawling across the face

11:27 am

kje

you guys are discussing her like this was a rational decision... it wasn''t, she isn't normal, she is clearly mentally disturbed... so can't make sense of it... she needs help

11:27 am

redturtlehead

I have and i and a c grayed...

11:28 am

DR1965

I greyed the y

11:28 am

Pinikula

...and sadly, her reasoning for wanting to have as many kids as she can is solely based on the fact that she was an only child....go figure, one of her older daughters doesn't like having so many bro's/sis's...

11:28 am

joshuavorbis

i've greyed the i and 2 e's

11:28 am

kje

BabbleRabble

as you know, redT, stress saps strength and contributes to a feeling of cold

12:31 pm

redturtlehead

Yes, I am a little stressed, but by May I should be feeling better.

12:32 pm

BabbleRabble

you may feel better now if you accept some things as being out of your control and get a bit more positive

12:33 pm

BabbleRabble

come May there will be other things to stress over, if that is your choice

12:33 pm

redturtlehead

Yes, but most of it is in my control, I'd feel better if I did the taxes, or got ready to move..

12:33 pm

nrkii

red, my mom's advice is always to get ONE thing COMPLETELY DONE, and then you will feel less stressed

12:33 pm

redturtlehead

But I did do alot yesterday and today...things are cleaner, and mortgage is paid...

12:34 pm

Dorens

ok good red.. so concentrate on the stuff you have done and feel good about it

12:34 pm

nrkii

sounds like you are doing well then red

12:34 pm

BabbleRabble

so, reward yourself and give yourself a break?

12:34 pm

redturtlehead

I filled out the job application. I just need to rent apartment and make moving arrangements...

12:34 pm

Dorens

and then listen to nrkii's mom, who sounds very smart

12:34 pm

dcseain

nicet to have accomplished some stuff, red

12:35 pm

BabbleRabble

hip hip hurray for redT!!!!!!!!!

12:35 pm

redturtlehead

I think Nrkiis Mom is smart. I tend to get a little wierd when moving time comes...its just a lot to think on, but since I move so much, it is a bit less stressful than for someone who doesnt move so often...

12:36 pm

Dorens

and tell yourself about the good stuff y ou have done, instead of stressing about what you haven't done. You know you always DO get it done, and you will... the stress doesn't really help that much, does it?

12:36 pm

redturtlehead

And the dog is clean. Todays other chore is to clean bathroom.

12:36 pm

redturtlehead

You are all so wonderful. :D

12:37 pm

Dorens

(i'm telling myself the same thing as I'm telling it to you... i have gazilliions things here that need doing and aren't getting done... mostly I blame babble)

12:37 pm

nrkii

Yeah, I forget my mom's advice a lot, and then when I remember, I just clean one cabinet, or one room, or pay my bills, or something that's on the long long list of things to do, and I feel a little better

12:38 pm

nrkii

it actually doesn't matter how big or small the thing is, if I can get it off the list, I feel great

12:38 pm

nrkii

fuquayvarina

4:25 pm

Krista

i have a question about syncing..i have to be doing something wrong...

4:25 pm

fuquayvarina

oh, sorry. I don't sync

4:26 pm

Krista

if i want to add new files to the iPod...do I really have to sync the WHOLE thing again?

4:26 pm

Krista

oops..that's ok..but if anyone knows, please help

4:26 pm

evanonut

you synch the whole thing every time krista

4:26 pm

evanonut

its fast

4:26 pm

fuquayvarina

Krista, I just have mine set up so it doesn't sync at all. Then I can just add whatever files I want.

4:27 pm

Krista

i've been doing it for years...prob is...was last synced on another computer, so i would lose the files that are not on this one

4:27 pm

evanonut

pretty sure you can find free software to save it krista

4:28 pm

Krista

hmmm...wonder how I do that, fuquay...ok, nutty..will look..it just seems more irritating that it should be, you know?

4:28 pm

Krista

sort of like me

4:28 pm

evanonut

besides, i would think if you were logged in under your user name, it would pull it off the ipod

4:28 pm

Pinikula

use iTunes...sync it back to your computer...then you can add more apps to your computer to sync to your iPod (I have an iTouch)

4:28 pm

evanonut

you're authorized for several computers after all

4:29 pm

JBV
