VolleymomDee
fortunately she lived alone, so no other human was living in that mess
3:15 am

3:15 am
sandyloo
Oh Herin, I couldn't agree more - not clean and not nice for the animals
3:15 am

Hugabugs
I tried going dogless for about 6 months... just couldn't stand not having a pup around and broke down and got one
3:23 am
sandyloo
andree, why don't you discuss getting a little dog with the landlord, sometimes they will be reasonable if you are a good tenant
3:23 am
herinfernallady
With renting our biggest problem is the cat shredding everything.
3:23 am
Andree
i feel like breaking lease terms and getting one on a daily basis
3:24 am
Hugabugs

we had laying hens once..up here they are a pain in the butt as a hobby,especially in the winter,heating lamps,bales of hay and you still go out there some morning to find that one of the stupid things stood in one spot all night in his water dish while it all froze around his ankles,not to mention the ones that get a taste for egg shell.that happens if you dont get out there twice a day and grab those eggs and they step on one..
7:34 am

10:10 am
NonoNanette
all very important tasks but you will be ready in no time at all
10:10 am

10:17 am
NonoNanette
they are heavier and a bit more stable. not so easy to tip over
10:18 am

exactly, these won't 'walk' all through the kitchen when he is eating or drinking

Hi Red
10:26 am
Shirlockc
my cat for some reason won't drink from the ceramic one until she moves it about 2 ft from where it is
10:26 am
Shirlockc
she only started doing it
10:26 am
redturtlehead
Not entirely sure its my Mom and Me, and I think we are either at Point Reyes Cali or Arcadia Maine...
10:26 am
Shirlockc
dang, sorry
10:26 am
JBV
if I can figure out how to scan and save a photo, I will update my icon too
10:27 am
sprite
hi Shirlock, I tried hoofy too
10:27 am
Shirlockc
should be a word
10:28 am
JBV
I think I just realized, looking at your photo, red, that although we have hundreds of photos of us as kids, I don't think I have one with just my mom and me - I think she was the one taking all the pictures!
10:28 am
NonoNanette
shirloc have you tried a different location for kitty to eat and drink
10:28 am
sprite
lol @ your cat. They can be quite particular, can't they. My husband's cat refused to drink from anything but the plant waterer.
10:28 am
redturtlehead
JBV, its the same with me, this one is a rare one.
10:28 am
Shirlockc
it's been in the same place for years
10:28 am
sprite
oh jeezzz sorry Nanette I missed your fireworks. Gratz!
10:29 am
Shirlockc
and then about a month ago she started moving the water bowl, not the food bowl
10:29 am
sprite
hi red, what a sweet pic
10:29 am
JBV
I have found that recycling old photos as gifts (with a nice frame) is usually a much appreciated gift
10:29 am
redturtlehead
I like this theme a lot.
10:30 am
sprite
good idea! I wish my scanner would behave so I could scan a pic.
10:30 am
JBV
my sister just reupholstered an old family armchair (circa 1950) and I have a photo of her sitting on the original at 3 years old - she loved it!
10:30 am

wow, that is special, JBV
10:30 am
redturtlehead
Thats so cool JBV. I like that sort of thing.
10:30 am
NonoNanette
I don't think i have any pics of myself as a small child..... i lost almost all photos in a flood several years ago
10:31 am
redturtlehead
Oh Nanette, thats sad do you have brothers sisters that might have some?
10:31 am
sprite
rotten flood! Just the things you can never replace :(
10:31 am
JBV
we have a nice tradition in our family - my mom made a "photo wheel" (it's like a rolodex) with all our best family photos - and my sister, brother and I now rotate it so that all of us have a chance to own it for a while
10:31 am
NonoNanette
they have both passed on red and both were much older than I
10:32 am
redturtlehead
Oh nanette very sad.
10:32 am
sprite
that is something great, JBV!
10:32 am
JBV
that's very sad, NoNo
10:32 am
Shirlockc
note to self: 1st things to save in emergencies
10:33 am
JBV
it's in my home now, so I have taken it upon myself to copy and scan as much as I can before I have to relinquish it again
10:33 am
redturtlehead
Thats one reason I like to now have scanned stuff saved in a few places including On line.
10:33 am
NonoNanette
it was the only things lost in flood that could not be replaced and it saddened me immensely
10:33 am
redturtlehead
I feel sad for you. I treasure photos of my Grandmother when she was 3- years...Big hugs for nono.
10:33 am
NonoNanette
I have done that with a lot of my kids pictures red
10:34 am

I may go with a brackish tank because there are several fish that do well with a few bits of salt, but not as much knowledge required!
10:40 am
sprite
aw that is really cute, chiley! But your icon of your son and grandchild was equally delightful.
10:40 am
redturtlehead
I Love MASH, Thats left over from an old icon day!

Oh, I've never seen one of those.
10:41 am

J. C.
Really, red - even as a girl?
10:48 am
redturtlehead
Yes, you can see it in the icon. I was called a boy for soooo many years.
10:48 am

in dutch that is called a plant pot hairdo. Seriously. They used to put a plant pot on a child's head, and then cut off all that escaped from it.
10:49 am
flosey
red, my sister and I had very short hair but long enough at the sides to get a great big metal curler in every night - now that was an uncomfortable sleep!
10:49 am
J. C.
Oh, I can't see your entire head there, red - but from what I can see, it doesn't look as 'boyish' as mine did - and you look ever so cute! :)
10:49 am
redturtlehead
Metal curlers for kids ouch!
10:49 am
redturtlehead

11:08 am
hootowl
Well they have all been sick and he's working crazy hours so he needs sleep more than babble. But I'll be seeing him next month and will try to get him on to prove he is still alive.
11:09 am
redturtlehead
sleep is more important than Babble..
11:09 am
hootowl
Would I recognise that worm in englis?
11:09 am
speedfreak
nice seeing this group I am not usually on the same time as you all lately, time for me to get saturday housework going....later
11:09 am
sprite
I'd rather have him sleep and get better, than babbling and draining himself, hootowl. Please just give him a big hug from me?
11:09 am
hootowl
you now, that language I'm supposed to know....
11:09 am
sprite

11:09 am
hootowl

11:10 am
hootowl
Well thats english enough.
11:10 am
sprite

Hi Billy, welcome.
When someone clues a word as, for instance, an4/5, it means there is a valid word starting an, 4 letters long in total and worth 5 points.

11:24 am
sprite
the warm wind, I think, Shirlock

Maybe I just ate something odd and ran a bit too hard.
4:24 pm

4:29 pm
redturtlehead
If you email me the photo, in its original size, my mother might could fix it. I will sk her if you like. She is very talented...both in photography and the use of photo shop.
4:29 pm
jmcnrick
do I have your email?
4:30 pm
redturtlehead
jmc, I did that with my passport and travel documents...the digital image, it was muh easier to email that aorund than send copies of passport...

htaggart@gmail.com
4:30 pm
kje
uuuhhhhh - to email a photo, don't you have to have it in electronic form???

4:34 pm

4:34 pm
jmcnrick

I’ve been in th4/5 se4/4 for so long that my fo4/7 is asleep in my sh 4/5.Maybe I would have found the words better if I had been smokin’ some ha4/6. I'll look forever for a 4-letter word.Then it hi4/5 me and it's right in front of my face. Tried to get hubby to babble with but he is an 4/4–babble.He said, “ye 4/7 right! Maybe in my ne 4/9 life!” He sh 5/12 away from it. He will always te 5/10 me about the hours I spend babbling.He tells me in a joking to 4/4 that I should ne6/18 the house instead of babbling. I told him the house was already ne 4/4. I se 4/4 him to the store so I could babble in peace. And now it is time for me to ex 4/9 and move on 4/4 other things. *ex 5/20 quietly to go shower*

my mother used to say that when I was born I had a little tuft of red hair at the back of my head, which accounted for my bad temper

nothing wrong with red hair.. he is just a poor actor
8:41 pm

david caruso annoys me
8:42 pm

say, ruru . . . earlier you were talking about wine . . . FYI when I was a student in Provence, my landlady would send me to the local wine distributor with a wire carrier of empty wine bottles and they'd fill them up for about 35 cents each . . . those were the days!

;Of course, Une . . . and it's a pity people are purposely breeding them and other crosses, when there are already so many wonderful, adorable, sweet dogs in desperate need of homes - the shelters are overflowing, and so many are put down. :( My present and last dogs were rescues, adopted from one . . .

9:01 pm
Jadeomoan

9:01 pm

We call them labradoodle. Rescue Greyhounds are lovely but not everyones thing

ahhhh, weimareaner. i had a long haired one of those, he was gorgeous. my friend who bred them gave me him has he would escape and kill sheep and the farmer said if he did it agin he would shoot him, and as i lived in kent and she lived in surrey, i had him

9:05 pm

Oh Jilli - I am sorry, but I forgot when I clued you on those 'sh' words to add that the 2-letter greeting was reversed! :P
9:05 pm

I assume you got it anyway?
9:05 pm

I love springers and at springer rescues they often have purebred dogs
9:06 pm
J. C.
I only adopt mixes though, simply because they are less adoptable and more in need of a home. Purebreds get snapped up much quicker . . .
9:06 pm
herinfernallady
All our pets be it pure breed or kitty have been rescues of some sort.
9:06 pm
lilliann
me and my ex husband split up and he ended up going to live on a farm, hopefully they had no sheep!! he also use to bring down deer, but weimeraners are gun dogs

9:11 pm
featherbee
yep, she's a happy girl out here. and still gets to see her city-mommy at times as well.
9:11 pm
J. C.
I only have one, renfield - I had one before her, too. She is a Whippet cross, and the shelter only knew her mother was about 3/4 Whippet. Her father is unknown - I suspect she may have some poodle and possibly Manchester Terrier in her.

Read it, Frances - and please don't worry if you don't get a reply from me promptly, at any time. The only reason you have so far, is we've e-mailed while we're both on here, mostly. And I've been home more - which soon again, I won't be very much.
9:34 pm
Frances
No problem J.C.
9:34 pm
