I was just going to ask how he is today. And he must be feeling awful because he can't actually do anything. Is he with his Dad now? I know just having an 'ear' helps. Hope his father isn't the strong silent type, he needs to let go

4:45 am
Eva

speaking of embarrassing TV....every once in a while I take a peek at some of the BBC comedy shows - and there seems to be a really bizarre strain of utterly gross- sort of 6 year old boy potty humor that people obvoiusly find utterly entrancing. guess it's the across the pond answer to Jerry Springer
4:45 am

stidgmere

As I look at the stories in the geneology logs, I find some of my great grandmothers created friendships with native americans by baking goodies for them. At least once, the family was not attacked because of these friendships. Hence, there got to be descendents. For us baking is a way to salavation.

ri8 - not a compound word. Looks a bit like a jaunty way of saying a poet? (taking liberties with spelling)

No, can't say that I have.

it is an easier way to give pills, also made for dogs. just found out about them. lots of sites on the web
10:51 am

yes, she has a UTI and was given antibiotics yesterdat
10:51 am

I have never been able to get a pill into her. in the past she ate it if I ground it up and put it in wet food but not today :(

10:52 am
Haz1558

I noticed you getting advice earlier on from cat owners. I'm not much help at all, I'm afraid. I hope you get her persuaded into taking the medicine, it sounds as though she needs it!
10:53 am
Haz1558

Which 8s do you already have?
10:53 am

have be, ri, ro
10:53 am

she does and I need her to take them. I am tired of stepping into cat pee with my bare feet
10:53 am
Haz1558

If you have the ri8, then swap the first letter for a b for bi8
10:54 am
periwinkle

I will ask the vet when she calls with the test results
10:54 am
Haz1558

pr8 - what the careful laundrywoman does with coloured and white clothes.
10:54 am
periwinkle

thanks Haz, never heard of that bi8
10:54 am
Atalante

pill pockets *usually* work
10:55 am
Haz1558

Nor had I, peri.
10:55 am

thanks, just found out about them today, usually??
10:55 am

but Ata knew about them
10:55 am

depends how clever your cat is, I think
10:55 am

can't wait to get the move over with, have Zoe-Anne all better. hopefully the two cats will tolerate each other
10:56 am
Haz1558

Also pr8/45 - begin like the pr7/32 before it, but don't end with 'not out' but with the last letters of the feature on your face you use for perching glasses.
10:57 am
Haz1558

Moving is stressful for everyone, peri.
10:57 am
periwinkle

is there more than one pr8/45?
10:57 am
harpjane

my cat plays a game called "eat around the pill" twice a day
10:57 am
periwinkle

pls don't tell me that harp
10:58 am
periwinkle

I will at least give it a try, need to buy some
10:58 am
Haz1558

Yes, peri. The first one uses 'before' prefix, the second one 'for' prefix.
10:58 am
harpjane

the best way to get her to eat it is to put it in hamburger and then offer it to the OTHER cat...
10:58 am
Atalante

couldnt she get a long-release antibio injection?
10:58 am
rururocks

ro 56/10 # 1?
10:58 am
periwinkle

I only have one cat at the moment and I don't eat hamburger
10:59 am
periwinkle

will ask the doc re long release antibiotic
10:59 am
Haz1558

Or try, p plus a method of learning which involves rhyming (like multiplication tables) plus last three letters of a flower (it's in the grid)
10:59 am
harpjane

well, that doesn't mean your CAT won't eat it1
10:59 am
Atalante

whats zoe-ann's favourite favourite food
10:59 am
harpjane

i think you can get liquid antibiotics too
11:00 am
periwinkle

I would buy some hamburger if I thought it would work, raw or cooked? I have never given her any beef. what about ground chicken or turkey
11:00 am
Haz1558

Best stick with chicken or turkey if she's not used to beef - you don't want diarrhoea to add to your woes.
11:01 am
rururocks

anyone have the first ro 5? I am lost on it
11:01 am
Haz1558

ro5/10 - what a bird does, but end with a vowel rather than a consonant
11:01 am
periwinkle

if doing the liquid would still need to get it into her mouth, not sure I could do that
11:01 am
periwinkle

thanks for all the advice
11:01 am
Haz1558

Or, add a vowel to the shortened Aussie jumpers.
11:02 am
Atalante

you just get a pipette, and squirt it past her gag reflex. is easier
11:02 am
periwinkle

she likes Friskies prime fillets in chicken or turkey but that did not work this am
11:02 am
periwinkle

I would still need to get her to stay still and open her mouth, Ata. had one of those but threw it away
11:02 am
Haz1558

Very provoking, peri.

we are good friends but do not see eye to eye re homosexuality or abortion
6:39 pm
periwinkle

she does want her to be happy but is really angry, upset etc. and I think it would help to talk with other parents, espec Christian ones
6:39 pm
pam

That's hard, peri
6:39 pm

tc zooz, goodnite.
6:40 pm
periwinkle

I would be more accepting but that is me
6:40 pm
pam

Is there a support group in her church, or is her church homophobic?
6:40 pm
periwinkle

thanks for the information, pam, I will pass it along to her
6:40 pm
pam

Well, I sense you feel to each their own, peri. And, in a just world, that would be the case
6:40 pm
pam

Sure, peri
6:41 pm
periwinkle

not sure, she has information given to her by the church but I have not seen/read it
6:41 pm
pam

I just wish people would understand that they have no reason to be threatened.
6:41 pm
periwinkle

she is open to reading other material as well. any books to recommend, pam?
6:42 pm
pam

What is her fear for her daughter? Usually, I say to godfearing folk that if we are all made in god's image, then god has no problems so why should you. Only I say it nicer.
6:42 pm
pam

I will have to think about that, peri
6:42 pm
periwinkle

she is totally against gay/lesbian marriage
6:42 pm
redturtlehead

Honestly, I think people are often thinking more of themselves and how things look to their church, their friends and of course they worry that they did something as a parent to create the situation....
6:42 pm
pam

Yeah, well her daughter
6:42 pm
periwinkle

that she will not be able to marry/have children, etc
6:42 pm
periwinkle

yes, that is true, red
6:42 pm
pam

s being a lesbian has nothing to do with marriage
6:43 pm
pam

She can adopt children, get inseminated. And, maybe she doesn't want kids
6:43 pm
pam

I agree, red
6:43 pm
periwinkle

I did not argue with her, just listened
6:43 pm
pam

Seems to me this society needs to separate religious from civil marriage
6:43 pm
periwinkle

she is very unhappy with the possiblity of insemination
6:43 pm
pam

I am not arguing, peri, and I know, you were being her friend, which she needs at this time
6:43 pm
periwinkle

it was hard to listen to her
6:44 pm
periwinkle

I know you are not arguing, pam.
6:44 pm
pam

It sounds like she wants her daughter to follow the path she took. It will take some adjusting for her....
6:44 pm
pam

Oh, good peri! I know I can be strident...
6:45 pm
periwinkle

not at all, pam, appreciate you input
6:45 pm
periwinkle

she does pam, I did tell her that being g/l is not something that a person chooses. it is what they are
6:46 pm
periwinkle

*meant who they are*
6:46 pm
pam

And, the same is true for bisexuals, which a LOT of people don't get, LOL, but it's true. Sexuality is a spectrum....
6:47 pm
pam

My brother has never given my lifestyle a moment's thought other than asking me if I was being careful--the same questions I asked him. Now, he has two daughters. The eldest, all of 10, has told him she will marry a woman and settle down.
6:48 pm
periwinkle

was your brother ok with that
6:48 pm
pam

Now, who knows what she is saying as she has given no indication of hormones taking off yet. I asked my brother what he said. He told her that that was great, just find the right one.
6:49 pm
periwinkle

good for him, wish my friend was more like him
6:49 pm
periwinkle

now must look for more words, have 95 left to find
6:49 pm

My brother figures straight/gay/bi is a label. He wants his kids to be happy, honest, self-sufficient, etsc.

6:50 pm
periwinkle

thanks really needed those hugs, this was not my best day, and it has nothing to do with my friend.
6:50 pm

Roman Catholics, Presbyterians, Anglicans, Congrgatonalists, Lutherans, Mennonites etc etc etc are all Christian. How come one fundamentalist group has usurped the word as if they were the only Christians?

Dorens

honestly peri i have no idea. I was an hour and a half away when it started and can't iimagine my cats doing that. I think it was some strange computer malfunction that makes no sense... no one was here, even tho it was on. i suppose a cat could have jumped on it, but to go on like that?
