What kind of soup, today?
2:08 am
jhb

Vegetable - chicken stock, potatoes, onions and leeks sweated in butter with paprika, celery, pumpkin all blended together once coioked and served with a dollop of blue cheese and crusty French bread. Coming over? There's plenty.
2:10 am

Forgot also added some mushrooms and tomatoes. My kids always called this cleaning out the fridge soup.

aww, am sorry to hear jhb. Yes - i understand that tho
2:18 am

Christine and saint franny - My friend Carol says that what I make is French Farmhouse, add whatever is around each day and I never know what it's going to turn out like. Just put some couscous in today's soup.

2:31 am
jhb

Hi Christine - that's not one of the books I remember. Have finsihed my soup - mmm. Now giving up on this puzzle for tonight. NCIS has just come on the TV and it's my favourite. Goodnight. There's time for me to come back to this in the morning.

4:26 am
rubyfoo

hello sally and donna and lynxx if you're still here
4:26 am
rubyfoo

all that talk of soup is almost making me hungry --I wish
4:26 am
Sally-catlover

Well I haven't long finished a late breakfast - croissants and apricot jam.
4:27 am
rubyfoo

homemade jam, sally?
4:28 am
Sally-catlover

Sadly no. I have finished all my home-made apricot, and not made any this year, but we buy Bonne Maman which is lovely. Plenty of home-made marmalade left though! It would be a matter for divorce or murder if Other Half ran out of home-made marmalade I think:-)
4:31 am
rubyfoo

hahah. Happily, husband likes Bonne Maman apricot, too; He eats it with his yoghurt in the AM. Our apricot tree died without ever producing one fruit; I think it's too cold here. The only homemade ones are red currants (I don't like cassis), blackberries and plums
4:32 am
Sally-catlover

Actually we eat so little jam it probably isn't worth making, although I do love apricot jam. Also love bramble jelly (made with blackberries if that doesn't translate!). I have not made so much jam in the last couple of years, but I do make vast quantities of marmalade in January when the Seville oranges are in.
4:32 am
FMitch

Morning all
I like Bonne Maman too.
4:33 am
Sally-catlover

Good morning FM. Shall I warm a croissant for you?
4:33 am
rubyfoo

my favorite commercial jam is "generic" Carrefour brand Reines Claude
4:33 am
rubyfoo

{sp?}
4:34 am
Sally-catlover

You got the spelling of "favourite" wrong :-)))
4:34 am
rubyfoo

Sunday is our "full English breakfast" day - sausage, eggs, cottage cheese, etc, and then I'm supposed to eat lunch at noon
4:34 am
FMitch

OH lovely idea but no thanks Sally had breakfast not that long ago.
4:34 am
rubyfoo

hahah
4:34 am
Sally-catlover

I hate to tell you this, but cottage cheese does not normally feature in a Full English.
4:34 am
FMitch

Where does cottage cheese fit into a full English ?
4:35 am
rubyfoo

when I type e-mails, since I have an English keyboard, it corrects favor, labor, etc to the {correct} English way
4:35 am
rubyfoo

no idea....husband just likes it
4:35 am
Sally-catlover

Perhaps it's a full American, FM?
4:35 am
FMitch

LOL
4:36 am
FMitch

It makes for a full Mr ruby :)
4:36 am
Sally-catlover

How do you have the cottage cheese, on the plate with all the bacon and eggs and so on? Or on the side?
4:36 am
rubyfoo

no, full American would be brown and serve sausages, home fries, eggs and grits! or pancakes
4:36 am
rubyfoo

he smushes it together, disgusting!
4:37 am
Sally-catlover

I need a US-English dictionary here. What are "brown and serve" sausages?
4:37 am
FMitch

ewww, spare me the details. Never really got to grips with cottage cheese.
4:37 am
Sally-catlover

I can't stand cottage cheese, makes me throw up (literally). My excuse for not going on a diet.
4:37 am
rubyfoo

they are delicious tiny pork sausages, unavailable in Europe, I think. We buy Swiss St. Gallen veal sausages
4:38 am
rubyfoo

is cottage cheese good for the diet? My son keeps saying that I eat too much dairy
4:38 am
Sally-catlover

Not wishing to start a war here, but I would not buy veal anything in France, would not buy veal unless I knew it was farm reared and not milk fed.
4:38 am
FMitch

It is only good for a diet if that is all you eat *shudder*
4:39 am
FMitch

By the way ruby, I expect you to get fireworks today.
4:39 am
Sally-catlover

However, knowing how these things can get out of hand, let's just change the subject! Ruby, if ever you make it to Shropshire I will cook you a proper full English breakfast.
4:39 am
rubyfoo

I agree with you, but once I start arguing about what he likes to eat, I think I'll lose the war. I agree with you about veal but, hopefully, the Swiss are more humane
4:40 am
rubyfoo

I think Americans are the worst about veal and chicken!
4:41 am
Sally-catlover

I keep chickens as you know. I am very brave now and when I go into a butchers, or have a meal out, I always ask if the chicken is free range. If it isn't, I don't order it.
4:41 am
FMitch

oh I haven't had a fry up for years *drool* Looks to see how far Shropshire is from me.
4:41 am
Sally-catlover

Luckily Ludlow is renowned for its butchers.
4:41 am
Sally-catlover

You would be welcome any time FM.
4:41 am
rubyfoo

the ones I cook are free-range, farmer and bio, if the butchers and the labelling can be trusted!
4:42 am
FMitch

Thank you :)

ruby - did you see my post at 4.39?
4:42 am
rubyfoo

sally, having read "Eating Animals", I have gotten to the point where I eat hardly any meat any more
4:42 am
Sally-catlover

Home-cured bacon, Berkshire Black sausages, free-range eggs, tomatoes, toast made with home-made bread, home-made marmalade ...
4:42 am
rubyfoo

just saw it now, FM, missed it the first time whilst trying not to make Sally mad at me.
4:43 am
FMitch

Stop it I am drooling all over the keyboard.
4:43 am
Sally-catlover

Hey, I'm not made at you ruby!!
4:43 am
rubyfoo

I love black sausages, but if I cook them for me, husband won't even sit at the table
4:43 am
herinfernallady

Hi
4:43 am
Sally-catlover

4:43 am

Black sausages? Is that black pudding?
4:43 am
rubyfoo

hi herin

For a small grid it is very fast.

Hi herin, hows the holiday going?
4:43 am
herinfernallady

Howdy
4:44 am
Sally-catlover

Not talking about black pudding. Berkshire Black is a breed of pig. Very tasty.
4:44 am
rubyfoo

BTW, the washing machine repairman lied and there is water every place today!
4:44 am
rubyfoo

oh, I thought you meant blood sausage
4:44 am
Sally-catlover

Oh no ruby! Have you already paid him?
4:44 am
herinfernallady

I just had wallaby sausage
4:44 am
FMitch

oh dear!
4:45 am
rubyfoo

it means more arguing on the telephone on Monday, and yes, I've paid him, and all in French. My head is exploding
4:45 am
herinfernallady

As for the repair man. Tell him to get back over there now and make him pay for his time
4:45 am
rubyfoo

wallaby sausage?
4:45 am
Sally-catlover

Poor ruby. {{hugs}}
4:45 am

Is wallaby sausage good, herin?
4:46 am

4:47 am

I like venison sausage. We can get that made with local venison.
4:48 am
herinfernallady

mmm yum
4:48 am

Ruby the repair man should be offering his services free of charge as he clearly didn't fix the washing maching

I have retreated to the bedroom away from the TV too annoying
5:29 am

does that make you sad or do you enjoy being on your own for a bit?
5:30 am
herinfernallady

I am enjoying it. I just can't bear loud noise. Dad has gone a bit deaf. He likes the sports and that drives me nuts. So i went to bed
5:31 am
sprite

I can relate to that. Can't bear loud noise either. Or sudden noise. Son dear just forgot to close his room door... twice... and twice the thing was banged shut by the draft. Am all rattled.
5:31 am
herinfernallady

Mum has been so insistent on paying for petrol when we took her out today. Didn't work though
5:32 am

hehehe good for you. Treat your mum, she is worth it.
5:32 am
herinfernallady

Erk. You need to get some of those um door mice. They wedge the door open.
5:33 am
sprite

are they automatic or does son dear have to place them manually?
5:33 am
herinfernallady

Ok they are called door wedges. We put them on the edge of the door itself

then it won't help... he will forget to place the door mice. I think I'll send him back to the factory to grow a brain ;)
5:38 am
herinfernallady

Grin Sprite. O the other thing is a more perminat sollution and that is those hydrolic door closers.
5:39 am
sprite

true, that is an option. Or I will just sit out the wait for him to grow up. He'll do fine once the hormones stop running his life for him :)
5:40 am
herinfernallady

Does he slam the door on his own in a snit?
5:41 am
sprite

yep, and stamps on the stairs, and turns on his music real loud.
5:42 am
herinfernallady

Yep you have a teenager
5:42 am
sprite

that is Tim Hide. But Tim Jackyll still hugs us, wants to cuddle, demands I sit down when I am tired and takes a job off my hands...
5:43 am
herinfernallady

awwww
5:43 am
sprite

and he just asked for money, so he could to with his girlfriend for a huge bicycle tour today and treat her to dinner tonight.
5:43 am
sprite

how many boys of 14 yo would even think of something like that?
5:44 am
herinfernallady

Awww

The one teen kid I know we are greatful he doesn't eat the furniture and is house broken

herinfernallady

awww tooo cute
5:45 am
sprite

roflol lady! Yeah, some days Tim is exactlly like that. But usually he is ok.
5:46 am
herinfernallady

Young men these days need to learn to behave like gentlemen. The kid that I am talking about we taught him manners and he now acts like a feral little pig with girls
5:46 am
herinfernallady

That also goes for the teen girls too that he knows. They are also feral

5:48 am

I have tried aerie ugh times already. I keep seeing it and it just is not there!
5:49 am
herinfernallady

OMG Sprite you really are a terrible parent teaching respect and manners. (Sigh I wish there was more Sprite and Mr Sprite Parents, Kills me with the way some parents let their kids run feral)
5:49 am
sprite

blame the layout of the site, not yourself, Lil :)
5:50 am
Lilecama

:) thanks sprite!
5:50 am
sprite

grin, yeah, we are awful parents. But at least our kids are generally loved. And they can move in most circles without embarrassing themselves (or us).
5:52 am
herinfernallady

I told mum last night that this party these parents knew the kids were drinking. I told mum at 16 I would have been happy with the my kids having 2 cans of mixed alcohol and no more not the great amounts they were drinking. It frightned me that they could be so vulnerable to creeps.

one last rant and I will stop, grin... I really believe parents do their kids a disfavour by not insisting on manners, respect and courtesy. Those are great tools to have in life. And you can always decide to drop them for a bit if necessary. The other way around is not possible.

Sprite we don't want kids though but it is nice to see that values parents taught me are being taught to the next
5:55 am
sprite

yes, the alcohol intake is frightening nowaways, for kids. The school is wise about it. They allow beer and wine for the upper classes and keep it strictly separated from the younger kids. And even the upper classes have to be moderate.

10:47 am
redturtlehead

but I hsould be able to finish!
10:47 am
Pinikula

I know what you mean, red...probably why I'm so tired...nothing much to do today other than a good grid
10:47 am
Pinikula

it's definitely doable!
10:48 am

10:48 am
Pinikula

I was hoping to avoid the domestics, red!
10:48 am
stidmama

I know pini!
10:48 am
redturtlehead

pini can do it over the phone!
10:49 am
stidmama

down to one word...
10:49 am
Pinikula

* looking for glasses *
10:49 am
stidmama

it's okay, I made the mess, I will make it through the solution!
10:49 am
redturtlehead

gooooo stid!!!!!
10:49 am
Pinikula

git'r dun, stid!
10:49 am
Pinikula

mess?
10:50 am
redturtlehead

stid, are you well recovered now from illness?
10:50 am
stidmama

yes red, thanks. still tired a bit, but able to get the essential teaching tasks done.
10:51 am
redturtlehead

good to hear.
10:51 am
Pinikula

ditto
10:52 am
stidmama

I asked the students to "collect" multi-generation stories from their families... but a lot of the students a) didn't ask their folks for help (or tell them about the project at all) or b) the families are like mine and don't have stories that have come down through the generations.
10:52 am
stidmama

SO... I am recording old folk tales on CD for the students to listen to so they can do the rest of the work for the storytelling unit.
10:52 am
Pinikula

<-- doesn't have stories that were passed down either
10:53 am
stidmama

I am asking a LOT of middle schoolers, using many difficult tasks...
10:53 am
Pinikula

nice backup, stid...good thinkin'
10:53 am
redturtlehead

My family did not tell passed down stories either, but we did read a lot of them, Baba yaga...and some odd Irish ones.
10:53 am
stidmama

first, they need to LISTEN and take notes (waits for experienced parents to recover from laughing); THEN they need to summarize the story, write a draft and make a sort of storyboard.
10:53 am
Nancy Boy

hi, everyone.
10:54 am
redturtlehead

Hi NB.
10:54 am
Pinikula

((NB))
10:54 am
stidmama

finally, they will write the story out and decide whether to present it as a storybook or as a puppet show for their peers.
10:54 am
stidmama

Hey Nancy Boy!
10:54 am
Pinikula

what a cool idea, stid!
10:55 am
stidmama

I hope they will learn that while cultures are different, they all use stories to teach, and that it's harder to interpret a story for others than it is to just sit back and receive it.
10:55 am
Nancy Boy

Our family had quite a lot of old stories. Enough to go round a class, probably! What about the kids with no family, though?
10:55 am
Pinikula

making stale minds wakeup and imagine again!
10:55 am
stidmama

thanks pini. I have had some positive feedback from parents, and some confusion from the kids... pretty normal response, I think.
10:55 am
stidmama

that's why I am recording the stories, Nancy BOy!
10:57 am
rururocks

I was raised by wolves... so no stories here
10:57 am

10:57 am
Pinikula

I think I may have been raised by ostriches...sadly they all kept their heads in the ground
10:57 am
Nancy Boy

Hiya, Ru :) I'm pretty sure most of my family stories are lies. They seem to involve a light use of dead ancestors and magic.
10:58 am
Pinikula

makes for a bit of entertainment though, right, NB?
10:58 am
rururocks

as long as you don't emu-late them pini...
10:58 am

LOL lots of strange goings-on in families, eh?

11:01 am
Nancy Boy

I remember being told "The Wormwood Rice Cake" as a story featuring my family members. Weird story; the moral is that if someone shames you, you work your fingers to the bone to get revenge...
11:02 am
stidmama

that was it, just had to find the silly third vowel. THANKS!!!!
11:02 am
Pinikula

sounds interesting, NB...might have to hear about that one!
11:02 am
rururocks

I don't know that book nancy
11:02 am
redturtlehead

congrats stid!
11:02 am
stidmama

disc not showing up on the computer's system. will see if I can figure it out.
11:03 am
stidmama

I don't like revenge stories... they seem to be designed to justify making bad situations worse.
11:03 am
Nancy Boy

Korean folk story, I think! All about letting bitterness simmer ;)
11:03 am
stidmama

oh well, back to the grindstone. thanks for the help! (((hugs and choclits for all))) see you later if I can get back today. *poof*

11:08 am

11:08 am
rururocks

I like to tease her about texas

11:10 am
Dorens

11:25 am
lbdawger

we're having fall in stages throughout the city. some areas are nearly done, others are just beginning
11:26 am
rururocks

Dylan is doing well.
11:26 am

My neighbor has a huge oak tree in the back yard at our shared fence and it drops all it's leaves on my side :(
11:26 am
Dorens

I had a beautiful fox right outside my back door friday morning, i wish it had stuck around long enough for a picture
11:26 am
rururocks

I have a roll I'm taking in to be made into a CD
11:27 am

11:27 am
lbdawger

lol, that's what trees do, pini. drop their leaves on others property.
11:27 am
Dorens

oh i wish mine would
11:27 am
Pinikula

it's probably easier to move the fence than the tree...
11:28 am
lbdawger

we rake up more cottonwood and elm than maple and alder.
11:28 am
rururocks

Our Idaho Honey Locust is droppng leaves faster than the gardener can blow them
11:28 am
Pinikula

...I wonder if I could spray the darn thing with super glue and just make the leaves stay on the branches
11:28 am
rururocks

<--- wishes I hadn't planted that tree
11:28 am
lbdawger

naw, they need to shed so they can produce next spring.
11:29 am
Dorens

my "gardner" is a live-in right now, and he blows the driveway and the area around that maple every other day. The acorns are the real problem though. there are zilliions... can't sit outside for fear of getting clonked on the head. and they come withgreat speed since they are from so far up
11:29 am
lbdawger

one of my favorite trees is the horse chestnut tree. such pretty leaves in the fall. wicked "fruit" tho
11:30 am
rururocks

live -in? *curious*
11:30 am
Pinikula

I know what you mean, dorens...we have a couple of those right outside our building at work...need a helmet to walk to the building next door!
11:31 am
lbdawger

we don't sit under any of the pine trees because the squirrels like to drop cones shards down them. OWIE
11:31 am
Pinikula

maybe that's what I need is a blower...has to better than a rake and sore muscles!
11:31 am
rururocks

has anyone ever tried acorn mash like the indians ate?
11:31 am
Dorens

hah! old boyfriend from 1992 - 2003 or so. he has cleaned up his act and we've been friends for years.. now, who knows? the house he was renting got sold, and i agreed to let him back here for now
11:31 am
Pinikula

not me, ru
11:31 am
lbdawger

oooh, the thot plickens! go dorens
11:31 am
Pinikula

that's gotta suck, lbd!
11:32 am
Dorens

he doesn't drink, so more wine for me!
11:32 am
Dorens

can't bring myself to try the acorn mash, have you, ru?
11:32 am
lbdawger

it just mostly hurts if you aren't watching out for the shards...no barefootin' either
11:32 am
rururocks

I did once.. it's fairly bitter and unedible
11:32 am
lbdawger

never tried the acorn mash, ru
11:33 am
rururocks

and one other thing
11:33 am
Dorens

right, i can't go barefoot right now.. too many acorns unless he just blew within 24 hours
11:33 am
rururocks

.... it doesn't taste like chicken either...
11:33 am
lbdawger

i'm not sure i've ever eaten an acorn
11:33 am
Dorens

i did try to eat raw acorns when i was a kid... very bitter
11:33 am
Pinikula

acorns in the grass is like walking on gravel!
11:34 am
rururocks

we ate everything as kids..
11:36 am
rururocks

so.. Doren.. what did you prepare with the Rol Valentin?
11:36 am
lbdawger

had to look them up, nope, never have digested an acorn.
11:37 am
Dorens

it was a mish mash of a meal, but delicious. I made scallops with basil, garlic and lime, served over mixed baby greens and avocado.. brown rice with sauteed onions and walnuts, peruvian chicken done on rotisserie, broccoli rabe, and apple crisp for dessert
11:38 am
rururocks

12:53 pm
Jellen

Hi, Pini
12:53 pm
Pinikula

hiya Jellen ;)
12:54 pm
Pinikula

how's it goin'?
12:55 pm
Jellen

Oh, it's going okay...not finding this as easy as everyone last night was...
12:55 pm
Pinikula

it's not too bad; can I help?
12:56 pm
Jellen

Other than that, it's going pretty darn well!
12:56 pm
Jellen

cl 6, please?
12:56 pm
Pinikula

It's pretty slow here...cold/wet outside...and I'm not interested in spending my day just doing chores :(
12:56 pm
Pinikula

cl6 = sounds like sp**** tap (lumbar puncture)
12:57 pm
Jellen

It's a beautiful day here...should be outside!
12:57 pm
Jellen

Thanks, Pini
12:57 pm
Pinikula

yvw ;)
12:58 pm
Pinikula

I'd rather it rain during the work week so I could enjoy the sun on my 'time off'...
12:58 pm
Jellen

I think I'm just distracted...got men issues...
12:58 pm
Jellen

Actually, just man issue...
12:58 pm
Pinikula

Anything I/we can do to help?
1:00 pm
Jellen

Not really, I've semi-consciously have been flirting with an old friend, and now he's responding and I wonder if I'm doing the right thing...
1:02 pm
Pinikula

I don't know that I'd question it, Jellen, if you like each other and fill a void in each other's lives, then I don't think you're doing anything wrong...makes sense? Wish I could flirt with someone and see where things lead...
1:03 pm
Pinikula

Besides...finding "happy" is not a bad thing :)
1:03 pm
Jellen

He knows about Tim, so I don't think that would be a big issue...
1:04 pm
Pinikula

I'm sure Tim would want you to be happy again, yes?
1:04 pm
Jellen

True, finding "happy" would be a good thing...
1:04 pm
Jellen

Yes, he would...
1:05 pm
Pinikula

...in that case, I hope to hear of regular updates on how 'happy' is coming along. * smile *
1:05 pm
Jellen

:-)
1:06 pm
Jellen

Ooh, 4 left!
1:06 pm
Pinikula

I'll be sure to do the same should it ever appear over here...
1:06 pm
Pinikula

you can do it!
1:06 pm
Jellen

Just have to look out for it...
1:07 pm
Jellen

1 left...
1:07 pm
Pinikula

I'm open to it, Jellen, just been focusing more on my kids and grandkids than on myself...figuring if it's meant to be, then it will come along... know what I mean?
1:08 pm
Jellen

Yes, I understand...
1:08 pm
Jellen

Jellen

Thanks for your help!
1:10 pm
Pinikula

1:10 pm
Pinikula

(not that I did much)
1:10 pm
Jellen

Oh, our talk made me feel better, as did your cllues!
1:11 pm
Pinikula

Oh, gosh...didn't realize...you're welcome...glad it helped! :)
1:13 pm
Jellen

:-)
1:13 pm
Pinikula

so, any exciting plans coming up? how's your packing going?
1:14 pm
Jellen

I was just thinking of packing...I'm moving at a snail's pace...and I've got to clean out my kitchen cabinets for the exterminators by Thursday!
1:15 pm
Pinikula

yikes! might have to increase the 15-20 minute rounds to 30-45 before taking a deserved break!
1:15 pm
Pinikula

or call in a friend...to help pass the time...
1:15 pm
Jellen

But this afternoon, I'm going to a interdenomiational choir concert...
1:15 pm
Pinikula

...even if they do nothing but chat with you while you do that deed
1:15 pm
Pinikula

that sounds like a lovely break!
1:15 pm
Jellen

And tomorrow night, I'm going to a folk concert
1:16 pm
Pinikula

<-- love folk music ;)
1:17 pm
Jellen

Tuesday's support group, Thursday's online support group and Friday is a bluegrass concert (if tickets aren't too expensive)...
1:17 pm
Jellen

It's Celtic folk music...I know the harpist...
1:17 pm
Pinikula

I need to move closer to you; however, earlier this week I learned Celtic Thunder is coming to our performing arts center in Nov.

Jellen

Oh, and on the 25th, I go on jury duty...
1:19 pm

1:21 pm
tcnjgrad10

I've only started playing this 5 days ago, and I never expect to finish a puzzle because my vocabulary isn't as extensive as everyone elses
1:21 pm
Jellen

A lot of it is educated guesswork!
1:21 pm
Pinikula

Mine isn't either, grad10, but I've definitely learned a ton of words by playing!
1:22 pm
Pinikula

you will be assimilated; resistance is futile! :)
1:22 pm
tcnjgrad10

I didn't even know some of these were words
1:22 pm
tcnjgrad10

a lot of them sound made up
1:22 pm
Uneaixoise

1:22 pm
Pinikula

...and the conversation with friends is priceless...
1:22 pm
Uneaixoise

Hi, Une
1:23 pm

3:19 pm
Gеогgе

cl6/21 is descriptive of the word after it I think, if you have the cl5/12 that follows? if not, starts like a place you'd get medical treatment then last two letters are short for a man's name
3:19 pm
Jindigo

Gеогgе

that one sounds like a girl's name and like the name of a vine, I think it is!?
3:22 pm
Gеогgе

whole word is like a girl's name that starts with D instead of L
3:23 pm
Jindigo

Hi, Soodle!
4:22 pm
Soodlebum

(((Jellen)))) How are you?
4:23 pm
Jellen

I'm good...a little excited/nervous...
4:24 pm
Soodlebum

Ooooh? what has you exited<
4:24 pm
Jellen

A guy...
4:25 pm
Soodlebum

Oooh Jellen...... Looks like theres only us on line. Please tell me...
4:25 pm
Jellen

I've been kinda flirting/stalking him (he's in a band...I'm just going to gigs), and he's started to respond..
4:26 pm
Soodlebum

You know what, Jellen? You might just need a distraction right now.
4:27 pm
Jellen

So I'm nervous...
4:27 pm
Soodlebum

But, the tingle of a new possibilithy is always such a buzz.... I'm right there with you, Jell
4:27 pm
Jellen

Yes, it is...
4:27 pm
Soodlebum

So.... Is he nice?????
4:28 pm
Soodlebum

Tell me about him....
4:29 pm
Jellen

I've known him since high school...he's a drummer in a rock band, but also freelances...and he produces music for other musicians...I'm not sure if he has a studio set up or not...
4:30 pm
Jellen

He's taller than me, a little chunky, but very nice...with a wicked sense of humor...
4:30 pm
Soodlebum

And, (not trying to get personal,or anything), is there a tingle there,Jellen?
4:31 pm
Jellen

Yes, I think so...definitely a comfort-feeling...
4:31 pm
Soodlebum

Thats good. That makes me happy.
4:32 pm
Jellen

We haven't kissed yet, but he said he was going to work up the courage to next time he saw me...
4:32 pm
Soodlebum

Yee-Haw!!!
4:33 pm
Jellen

*blush*
4:34 pm
Soodlebum

Jell - I have been on my own for 3 and a half years, since my husband ran away. I hooked up with a ex on Facebook some months ago, and its all good. Like your guy, Paddy makes me laugh and laugh and laugh. Its early days, but (fingers crossed) so far go good...
4:34 pm
Jellen

Oh, how exciting for you!
4:35 pm
Soodlebum

Of course, needless to say, my kids are horrified. The thought of Mam actually enjoying herself is totally alien to them. I told them to build a bridge and get over it!!
4:35 pm
Jellen

I haven't asked him one important question yet...is he allergic to cats?
4:36 pm
Jellen

lol...Mams have the right to have fun, too!
4:37 pm
Soodlebum

Jell - one day at a time. Get over the cat thing when you come to it. You just be aware that you are very vulnerable right noe. I'm not dissing this guy - but you take care, OK?
4:38 pm
Jellen

Yes, I'm trying very hard to take it slow...and I also want to be up front with him...he knows about Tim, and even met him once...
4:39 pm
Soodlebum

Life is bloody difficult. We both know that Jellen. Just take it easy, and one day at a time. ((((((Thinking bout ya,Jell))))))))))))
4:39 pm
Jellen

Thanks, Soodle!
4:40 pm
Soodlebum

((((Jellen))))
4:41 pm
Jellen

So your guy is Paddy? Mine is James...not Jim or Jimmy...
4:41 pm
Soodlebum

Jellen. I'm Irish. What else could he be called, only Paddy? James is a lovely name. Both my grandfathers were called James, so James abound in my family.
4:43 pm
Jellen

I think I have an ancestor named James that was sent to Australia in the 1800's...
4:44 pm
Soodlebum

Jell, I hadn't seen Paddy for 24 years, til yesterday. It was nervewracking.... but it turned out good in hte end. 24 years take their toll on people.....
4:45 pm
Jellen

I hadn't seen James for about the same amount of time...he used to be skinny, lol...
4:45 pm
Soodlebum

In my case...the t
4:45 pm
Jellen

Yesterday!!! Wow!
4:46 pm
Jellen

I used to be skinny, for that matter...
4:46 pm
Soodlebum

Yup. (between you and me, I'm still on a bit of a high). After our 'date' he phoned me, and said that my eyes still haunted him.... No wonder I couldn't sleep last night....
4:47 pm
Jellen

Aww....
4:48 pm
Soodlebum

Hmm. Two sad middle-aged singltons chasing after their youth............
4:48 pm
Soodlebum

(Bu I'm enjoying it)
4:48 pm
Jellen

Me, too!
4:50 pm
Soodlebum

Jell, If I had a drink in my hand right now, I'd clink you, and say Cheers! Consider yourself Cheered'!!!!
4:50 pm
Jellen

Same to you, Soodle!
4:52 pm
Soodlebum

Jell - its almost 11.00 here. Time I hit the sack. I really enjoyed our chat, and I'll be thinking bout ya. You take care. XXX
4:52 pm
Jellen

Well, I'd best try to get a few things done...
4:52 pm
Jellen

Take care! XXX

Thanks - yes it is that way.
9:28 pm
Jillyjill

NZ? New Zealand?
9:29 pm
jhb

Yes - Wellington New Zealand. It's supposed to be summer here - today it's down to about 38 degrees. Very chilly. So am sitting at pc at 3.30pm instead of doing all the things waiting for me.
9:31 pm
Jillyjill

That was me yesterday! But somehow house got cleaned despite babble!! It was a lovely fall day here today. We also did not have much of a summer!
9:32 pm
jhb

So where are you? I have friends in various States and have visited most of them.
9:32 pm
Jillyjill

Have you finished today's grid? If you need any clues I'll try...
9:32 pm

Thanks I am hopeless. I really appreciate your offer but I have just started and only have 29. I will come back to you.
9:32 pm

I'm in southwest Montana. Live in the same town with Harpjane and south of Lbdawg.

Hello...
9:34 pm
Jillyjill

Nobody is hopeless, I started with getting about 20 words a grid. Now can finish small grids nightly, the bigger ones only on weekends.
9:34 pm

Hi Jilly - all I know about Montana is that the capital is Helena. So all that expensive education wasn't wasted after all.
9:36 pm
Jillyjill

Thanks Jellen...still needing the hugs and prayers. Hubby in medical tests, but no answers yet
9:37 pm

10:09 pm
Jacula

Hi all. The more you play this game, the easier it gets. You learn all the Babblets and lots more. Putting the once weird words in first becomes the norm and you end up overlooking the easy words, so you last word found it often a stupid plural like 'lots'.
10:10 pm
Jacula

Hi Jac!

Hi, Jac

Hi Jillyjill.
10:12 pm
Jacula

Hi Jellen. I've just left you a comment on FB.
10:12 pm
Jellen

I saw it Jac, thanks...
10:13 pm
Jacula

Jellen - can I say something else here rather than on the more public FB?
10:13 pm
Jellen

Sure
10:13 pm
Jacula

Or would you prefer me to send you a private message on FB?
10:13 pm
Jellen

No, it's okay...
10:15 pm
Jellen

What I meant by my status change is that it's complicated...I'm not widowed, but I don't really feel single yet...
10:15 pm
Jacula

Oh okay, Jellen. Well, obviously I've no idea what your relationship status referred to, but if it's to do with somone who has been helping you or grieving with you... sometimes, that shared grief, because only you two know how it really feels, can be misplaced in each other's arm on each other's lips. I hope I'm not speaking out of turn by saying this.
10:16 pm
Jacula

I've probably got the wrong end of the stick!
10:17 pm
Jellen

No, you're not that far off the mark...
10:18 pm
Jacula

Jellen - I hope what I said centres you then. You're not widowed, because you hadn't had the chance to get married, but, no, you're not single either. It needs tiime.
10:20 pm
Jacula

Jellen - please allow yourself time. You might not need a decade like I did, but just be kind to yourself.
10:20 pm
Jellen

There is someone I'm interested in, and he's interested in me, but for the time being, we've decided friendship is the best course...
10:21 pm
Jacula

Jellen - that'd be best.
10:23 pm
Jellen

You'd approve of him, though. He's currently a drummer in a rock band...they do lots of 70''s covers...
10:24 pm
Jacula

My decade of not being ready was over the sow death of a long marriage rather than the actual death of a partner, and my did I make some horrendous mistakes and kiss a few frogs on the way before I was ready to love again. As for a man I loved actually dying, well, it's been 7 years since my Dad died physically, after slowing dying from Altzheimer's for yeara. But a parent dying is not something you ever actually 'get over', I think.
10:24 pm
Jacula

Jellen - LOL. I'm sure I would. Any youtube films of his band's stuff?
10:24 pm
Jacula

*sLow not sow. LOL
10:25 pm
Jellen

No, I agree...I've lost both my parents, my mother to Alzheimer's...
10:26 pm
Jellen

Sorry, I don't think they're on Youtube....one of his other bands might be...brb...

No, Jellen, that's not working either. Don't know why.
