Atalante

I have a cross and ill cat
2:54 am
Haz1558

That's not good news. What's wrong with her?
2:55 am
Atalante

vomiting, diarrhoea, general grumpiness at the situation!
2:56 am
Haz1558

I'll bet and I imagine you're not too happy either.
2:56 am
Haz1558

Something she ate?
2:56 am
Atalante

not vastly ... am going to whisk her down to the vets later, she's got such a sensitive tummy anyway that it's probably worth checking out
2:57 am
Atalante

no idea! maybe ...
2:57 am
Haz1558

How long has it been going on?
2:58 am
Atalante

2 days on and off, just now 100% on not off!
2:58 am
Haz1558

She's still drinking and on her feet?
2:59 am
Atalante

yes .... I know I'm being overly worried, but she just has such issues with her tummy anyway ...
3:00 am
Haz1558

No, you're right to get her checked over if only to try to get the sickness stopped etc. Support your local vet, I say. No doubt she says something quite different.
3:01 am
Atalante

that's what I was thinking, at least get her an anti-nausea something. and they are open normally on saturdays now, so it's not asking anything special of them
3:02 am
Haz1558

Plus, if you leave it until Sunday, you're probably into emergency fee time.
3:03 am
Atalante

oh yes! they always like seeing Sily anyway
3:03 am
Atalante

gosh, just thought, I don't think she's ever gone to the vets for anything but annual jabs and her original tummy problems as a kitten
3:04 am
Haz1558

She'll forgive you eventually.
3:05 am
Atalante

it takes a while, she's one of those cats where you can turn the cat carrier upsde down and she still clings in it somehow
3:06 am

That could be a good party trick.

Hope you won't ache too much after that lynxxx.
3:20 am
Haz1558

dfm, you're going to end up with dodgy innards and a shot to bits system if you keep up this daft not eating and sleeping regime. You need to get into a pattern and stick to it, otherwise you'll get yourself into a mess.
3:20 am
rubyfoo

hard to imagine gardening! but at least there is no snow left but cold and ground frost
3:20 am

in that snow - you have to be joking!

uhoh, do I go to the PB for saying hello to a**?
3:22 am
Atalante

let me put a pic of sily up. FM will be happy
3:22 am
Haz1558

I have a horrible feeling that he thinks it's more interesting to be neglecting himself than to conform to normal sleep and eating patterns. It won't be interesting when you have a breakdown!
3:22 am
FMitch

oh yes :)
3:22 am
dfmchfhf

It's not interesting! :o( I don't like it either...
3:23 am
rubyfoo

we will all be happy!
3:23 am
Haz1558

Then take steps to put it right. Schedule a time for eating and stick to it. Ditto for sleeping. I'm concerned for you.
3:23 am
FMitch

Ata I was looking for the vid of sily purring the other day but couldn't find it :(
3:24 am
dfmchfhf

when I'm at home I have an alarm clock to remind me... >.>
3:24 am
FMitch

and when you are on Babble you will get nagged to death so which is the easier option huh?
3:24 am
Haz1558

So, do the same where you are, or schedule your cell phone to go off at certain times. Get a system going or your system will be gone.
3:25 am
Haz1558

If you can't respond to your stomach telling you it needs fuel and if you won't give in to sleep at the right time, then you must make yourself obey the regime/timetable.
3:26 am
lynxxx

and stock up on some pre-prepared foods or healthy snacks so it no hassle to 'eat'. You have a micro-wave?
3:26 am
Atalante

there is little sily :) I'll make you a new one, FM :)
3:26 am
Haz1558

Good thinking, lynxxx.
3:27 am
Haz1558

And switch off your computer so that you're not tempted by it sitting open when you waken from a nap.
3:27 am
FMitch

awe I love Sily!!!
3:28 am

Can you have a cat FM?
3:28 am
dfmchfhf

i just..cannot bend my brain around what it is i am supposed to do..and when people tell me how strong i am through all this..i dont know what the hell they are talking about...

ne7? no, ne7 Mark.
9:15 am
Mark Jones

I don't have it.
9:16 am
NonnieLight

So it seems someone thought they'd try "shopping" at our house for Christmas the other day. Someone tried to steal our TV while we were at work.
9:16 am
zoozzoom

you won`t get it if there is no NE7.
9:16 am
Mark Jones

Ouch. That's terrible.
9:16 am
zoozzoom

OMG!...did they get caught?
9:17 am
Mark Jones

They should have. It takes time to undo and steal a TV.
9:19 am
NonnieLight

No. The TV was bolted to the chest it was sitting on and I guess they didn't bring any tools with them. Honestly, I think they were interrupted when my husband came home early. But we're not certain if that is how it played out. They were actually pretty considerate in the fact that they placed items off of the entertainment center onto the chair and floor instead of just ransacking the place.
9:19 am
zoozzoom

Where i lived before, i had been burgled twice in one year, not pleasant at all.
9:20 am
Mark Jones

My house has never been terrorized by a burglar.
9:20 am
NonnieLight

No zooz...it is a terrible feeling to know that a stranger has been in your house.
9:20 am
zoozzoom

Strange thing for a thief to do, my place was trashed both times.
9:21 am
Jivingjenny0

fireworks!!
9:21 am
NonnieLight

I thought is was very strange...a respectful thief???
9:21 am
zoozzoom

wonder why they did not yours..could not be for drug maony..as they would take anything they can lay thier hands on.
9:21 am

congrats jenny!

Hi everyone!
9:23 am
zoozzoom

Hello, Brookie :-)
9:23 am
NonnieLight

They came in the back door and walked all the way from the back room where two computers sit, down the hall past a bedroom where another TV sits and through the dining room past the kitchen and into the livingroom at the front of the house. They had their eye on that TV only...it appears. Almost like they'd been there before, which is an awful thought because then it sounds like someone we know.
9:23 am
Mark Jones

With min? She just happens to be babbling when I am.
9:23 am
Brookie

Hi zooz!
9:24 am
jmcnrick

and inspite of the press and cops claims a lot of burglars in hard eco times are just trying to give their families what everyone else has
9:24 am
jmcnrick

hi brookie!
9:24 am
Brookie

Hi jmc!
9:24 am
Mark Jones

Welcome to the grid Brookie
9:24 am
jmcnrick

can you see the tv from the street nonnie?
9:24 am
Brookie

Glad to be here, Mark.
9:25 am
zoozzoom

did not want to worry you, nonnie, but thats what i was thinking..unless at night they could see the tv on..and thought thats the one they want..nothing else..or could be stolen to order.
9:25 am
NonnieLight

Yes, jmc...I guess they can.
9:26 am
zoozzoom

that may be the case, Jmc, but they get no sympathy from me.
9:26 am
Brookie

Just scrolled through the chog. Sorry you went through that, nonnie.
9:26 am
jmcnrick

well then i wouldn't expect it to be a friend
9:26 am
jmcnrick

no sympathy from me either zooz there are other options
9:27 am
zoozzoom

agreed.
9:27 am
jmcnrick

my husband was a criminal trial attorney and just because i understand what goes on doesn't mean i approve of burglary
9:27 am
NonnieLight

Hiya, Brookie and thanks. It sure could have been a lot worse so I have much to be thankful for.
9:27 am
Mark Jones

I must leave all babblers now because I have laundry. Again. Anyway, I may see you later today. Hasta la vista everybody!
9:27 am
jmcnrick

for one it was good that they didn't do it when you were in the house!
9:28 am
NonnieLight

bye bye mark
9:28 am
Brookie

A similar thing happened to my parents about a year ago, so I can sympathize.
9:28 am
jmcnrick

bye mark
9:28 am
Brookie

Bye mark!
9:28 am
NonnieLight

Yes, jmc...I would rather they take everything we own, just leave my family alone.
9:29 am
jmcnrick

that is why it is a worse crime to burglar when some one is in the house
9:29 am
NonnieLight

Where your parents out of the house, brookie?
9:29 am
zoozzoom

Bye, Mark.
9:29 am
NonnieLight

where = were
9:29 am
zoozzoom

things could go down hill very quickly i am sure..what a horrible thought.
9:29 am
Brookie

Yes, my parents were both out at the time.
9:30 am
zoozzoom

thank goodness.
9:30 am
NonnieLight

Thank goodness, brookie.
9:30 am
jmcnrick

when i was burgled last november i was at home
9:30 am
Brookie

Definitely.
9:30 am
Brookie

That'
9:30 am
jmcnrick

that was the first time being burgled creeped me out
9:30 am
Brookie

That's awful, jmc
9:31 am
NonnieLight

Oh no, jmc. Did they catch the person(s) who did it?
9:31 am
jmcnrick

they took my purse and my laptop and my camera
9:31 am
jmcnrick

they did nonnie and it is a funny story
9:31 am
zoozzoom

oh sorry to hear that, Jmc..must of been terrifying.
9:31 am
Brookie

Please do tell
9:32 am
jmcnrick

i got my purse back when a client called to say someone had called her because they had found my purse in the alley with my clients papers in it
9:32 am
NonnieLight

For goodness sake!
9:32 am
zoozzoom

your joking..what are the chances of that happening.
9:32 am
jmcnrick

actually i should say i came home exhausted that night and went to bed at midnight after dropping everything on the floor of my kitchen at the back of the house
9:33 am
zoozzoom

but the doors were locked right?
9:33 am
jmcnrick

I woke up at 3 am not knowing why (later realized it was because the back door slammed) and decided to do some work
9:33 am
jmcnrick

apparently not well enough zooz
9:34 am
jmcnrick

i could find my computer but decided that i was stressed (my mother was dying) and it was 3 o clock and i would find it inthe morning
9:34 am
jmcnrick

in morning i looked and then called my boyu saying i am either crazy or i was burgled please come here and tell me which one
9:35 am
zoozzoom

very distressing.
9:35 am
jmcnrick

anyway later i was calling to cancel my credit card when the police called to say my wallet had been found
9:36 am
jmcnrick

so i got that back and i knew they hadn't gotten any cash out of it because i had given all my cash to my boy
9:36 am
zoozzoom

I am sure if you report credit cards stolen over here they are automaticaly cancelled.
9:37 am
jmcnrick

the police said apparently they were driving down the alleys and two guys would try back doors, open the ones they could, and grab what was handy and then move on. the guy in the van would go through the stuff and toss the useless increminating stuff out the window
9:37 am
jmcnrick

thus we found my purse and my waller--credit cards are not very useful and are very incrimnating
9:37 am
jmcnrick

same here zozz
9:38 am
jmcnrick

anyway several months later i got a call from the police at my office
9:38 am
jmcnrick

i freaked out because i thought something had happened to my boy but instead it was a detective asking me if i knew some guy from baltimore
9:39 am
jmcnrick

to wrap it up they had found my business card in a van of a guy they wanted for other things and because of that they were able to connect him with theseries of robberies
9:39 am
jmcnrick

AND it turned out they had my lap top because it was too crummy to sell
9:40 am
zoozzoom

unbelievable.
9:40 am
zoozzoom

charming about the laptop..lol
9:40 am
jmcnrick

so poor guy got only a cheap camera and a much bigger charge for having burgled me!
9:41 am
zoozzoom

serves him right.
9:41 am
NonnieLight

Wow...that is amazing, jmc. But the thought of them being in your home while you were there is too scary.
9:42 am
jmcnrick

basically they were counting on the fact that thie neighborhood is the kind where when you wake up in the morning and see you forgot to lock your backdoor you laugh and go oops!
9:42 am
jmcnrick

so they burgled dozens of homes
9:42 am
jmcnrick

I now have sliding bolts on those doors
9:42 am
Anniebrook

quite a story, jmc
9:43 am
zoozzoom

Don`t blame you.
9:43 am
jmcnrick

sorry lynxx says that i go on too long sometimes
9:43 am

Yes, we had gotton too lax with locking our back door because we'd had 3 dogs and one was an excellent guard dog. Two of our furry friends have passed on and so Gracie goes everywhere with my husband so the backyard is easy access for anyone willing to take a chance.

Kaplan the Magne

?
1:01 pm
Judi

Per chat yesterday - it was implied that something bad happend to him, but there was no elaboration. Many of us are very concerned.
1:01 pm
Atalante

you don't get to know if you're not in the inner sanctum
1:02 pm
Anniebrook

hello everyone
1:02 pm
Judi

Apparently not, Ata. Also - whatever happened to him happened over a week ago.
1:02 pm
Kaplan the Magne

I didn't know there was an inner sanctum.
1:02 pm
Atalante

oh yes, was a good few days ago now
1:03 pm
Judi

I thought I was in the inner sanctum. Imagine the blow to my ego.
1:03 pm
wildcat17

um I thought we were one big babble family ... so I don't get the "inner sanctum"
1:04 pm
Anniebrook

speaking from the outer sanctum anyone have a clue for the second te 5/10?
1:04 pm
waver12

..and speaking from the outer sanctum...i think we need to vote on a new name :)
1:05 pm
Atalante

my second one is a fish, really
1:05 pm
Judi

I don't care what sanctum anyone is in. He's a sweet kid and I would just like to know if he is okay.
1:05 pm
Anniebrook

thanks, ata, definitely a fish
1:07 pm

1:08 pm
Atalante

welki!!
1:08 pm
Judi

*hands on hips* I'm assuming he was either injured or arrested. I'd like to know if he needs help in any way.
1:09 pm
welki

i was concerned, too ... apparently i'm not in the loop either
1:09 pm
wildcat17

that's odd considering nb himself is usually straightforward about his difficulties

1:10 pm
JBV

jumping in here - sticking my neck way out (from the outer sanctum) - as one who LOVES NB, I say let him have his privacy. If he wanted us to know, he'd know how to do it
1:10 pm
Judi

Hello, Welki.
1:10 pm
welki

then how do we know?
1:10 pm
JBV

Wiki Leaks ?
1:11 pm
Judi

I'm all for maintaining privacy, JBV. I and many others would just like to know if he is okay. No details required.

JBV

I have so many on-going projects that have been temporarily interrupted, so my goal is to get back to some semblance of a normal routine
1:17 pm
JBV

and then, of course, there are all the new unwanted projects that involve the tasks that have to be done
1:18 pm
JBV

but never too busy to Babble
1:18 pm
Soodlebum

Hi everybody. ((JBV))) Lovely to see you.
1:18 pm

Priorities, JBV. Babble first. All other projects second.

1:23 pm
redturtlehead

that sounds like a lot of fun JBV.
1:24 pm
JBV

it is red, though I had to give up my Chinese lessons from last year - my brain could not handle both languages at once
1:24 pm
Judi

MMMM. Italian pastries.
1:24 pm
JBV

Hiya, Scrabbs!
1:53 pm
Soodlebum

Will do! Hello Scrabbs.... How are the bunnies?
1:53 pm
Judi

We just had a ten minute session of "straigtening the Christmas tree". All very technical and labor intensive.
1:53 pm
Scrabbler

Doing well! Just 20 more nails to clip.
1:55 pm
Scrabbler

Judi, that is always challenging, especially if the ceiling is getting scratched up.
1:56 pm
Judi

No where near that tall, Scrabbs. It's only about six footer. If it was up to my husband, the thing would be taller and wider than our whole living room.
1:57 pm
Judi

I always have to remind him of the proper scale when we go tree hunting.
1:58 pm
Scrabbler

Good for you, Judi.
1:59 pm
Judi

It smells wonderful!

And the funds went to our church youth group, so double the goodness.

WE can pretend....if it's cheesecake related
3:06 pm
PAV3

or cookies or pies or cakes...
3:06 pm
EvaNadine

I'm working on a rolled cookie. Any tips on doing so without the dough breaking?
3:07 pm
jmcnrick

keep some water to sprinkle on it
3:08 pm
PAV3

ahh, works best rolled onto marble top, or a t least chilled, using flour also on the surface to keep from sticking. They say to let dough chill a bit before rolling
3:08 pm
jmcnrick

wd pav
3:08 pm
PAV3

and don't roll too thin...small batches work better than one massive roll...
3:09 pm
EvaNadine

Ok will try those tips... gotta run!
3:09 pm
PAV3

anything else jmc?
3:10 pm
jmcnrick

no i think you said it all

3:12 pm
jmcnrick

when i made cup cakes for my boys preK the teachers had to order the kids to say thank you
3:13 pm
PAV3

well unless the kids were being terribly rude and refusing to eat, or spitting the cakes out, perhaps they were reinforcing etiquette?
3:13 pm
jmcnrick

it is so odd to watch them interview the head coach and know that i am good friends with his daughter and grandkids
3:13 pm
bichon

that's not too unusual jmc. They forget their manners easily
3:13 pm
jmcnrick

the kids didn't finish the cupcakes lol
3:13 pm
jmcnrick

they were gagging
3:13 pm
jmcnrick

the cupcakes really did suck
3:15 pm
PAV3

baking is not easy, nor should we take it for granted...even I have difficulties with my cheesecakes at times...I took a long break at one point, I was so disgusted with how they were turning out...
3:15 pm
jmcnrick

my husband was a great baker used to make bagels with the kids for fun
3:16 pm
bichon

I've made bagels. They are fun to make

jmcnrick

lol that is a thought
4:11 pm
jmcnrick

oh look i got halfway and didn't notice
4:11 pm
Brookie

I'm hopeless when it comes to fashion. I get compliments only on the things that other people pick out for me.
4:12 pm
Brookie

Yay, jmc!
4:12 pm
jmcnrick

you are so cute in the photo i am sure you are better at it than you think
4:13 pm
Brookie

Everything from the next down is a disaster. :-)
4:13 pm
Brookie

My sister, however, is a fashion queen. She's picked out awesome outfits for me.
4:13 pm
Brookie

From the "neck" down...
4:13 pm
jmcnrick

lol well maybe you can have her coordinate 10 outfits and just rotate them
4:14 pm
Brookie

Great idea!
4:15 pm
jmcnrick

i am full of ideas! just not so good on follow through
4:15 pm
Brookie

Muses aren't expected to implement. It takes a team.

4:21 pm
Soodlebum

Brookie, Soodle is 100%. We got our new dog today... though, she is so small, dog is too big a word to describe her. She is only a D. I am trying to organise pics.....
4:22 pm
Brookie

What kind of D?
4:22 pm
Brookie

And when will she become a Do, and then a Dog?
4:23 pm
Soodlebum

Oh, a pure-bred mongrel. A bit of a collie, a bit of a Jack Russell, and a bit of other undetermined species. She is gorgeous!
4:23 pm
Brookie

Sounds intriguingly cute!
4:23 pm
Soodlebum

I will let you know when she graduates to DO....... How are you doing, Brookie, in matters of the heart?
4:24 pm
Brookie

I'm still getting over the trauma of last week. On eHarmony like crazy. A couple bites. It'll happen when it happens.
4:25 pm
Brookie

I'm not ready to fall in love right now, anyway. I'm just up for dating.
4:25 pm
jmcnrick

would it be too nosy for me to ask??
4:25 pm
Brookie

Nothing's too nosy in babble!
4:25 pm
Brookie

What would you like to know?
4:26 pm
jmcnrick

what happened last week
4:26 pm
Soodlebum

Theres an old saying round these here parts, Brookie.... Whats for you, won't pass you.....
4:26 pm
jmcnrick

and actually if someone says i am to tired of telling a story or i would rather not i am totally cool with it
4:26 pm
Brookie

Was dumped by the b.f. I totally wasn't expecting it. It turns out he was holding a lot in but didn't communicate it with me and give me a chance to work with him on it.
4:27 pm
jmcnrick

too bad i wish men were encouraged to talk more
4:27 pm
Brookie

I really thought we had a great relationship. That's what makes me so sad. I thought he was a keeper.
4:28 pm
bichon

Soodle, you got a new dog? Great. My bichon Bisky doesn't have much longer
4:28 pm
Brookie

At the same time, I can't be with someone who is afraid to communicate with me. I really am approachable.
4:28 pm
jmcnrick

there is a process about talking as a couple that used to be called acme
4:28 pm
Brookie

Hi bichon!
4:28 pm
jmcnrick

i am sure you are some guys just don't know where to start
4:28 pm
Brookie

How does the process go?
4:28 pm
bichon

HI everyone

Soodlebum

Hey Bichon. What can I say.. Just enjoy every day with Bisky.
4:30 pm
Brookie

Just glanced at the website. Looks awesome. Will bookmark it.
4:30 pm
jmcnrick

the idea is that relationships take work even when things are going well so they have retreat weekends for couples and small groups which meet monthly and do exercises to help build communicatin
4:30 pm
bichon

I'm in CA visiting the grandkids and I spoke to my daughter who is caring for him while I'm gone.
4:31 pm
Brookie

A lot of the problems that were building could have been avoided.
4:31 pm
jmcnrick

i did it with my hubby and it was really helpful especially during the hard times when he went deaf and communication became a bitch
4:31 pm
Brookie

Hope you're having fun in CA, bichon!
4:32 pm
Brookie

Wow, I can see how that would be a challenge, jmc.
4:32 pm
bichon

I always have fun in the Bay Area andthe weather is mild.
4:32 pm
Soodlebum

Oh.. You in San Fransisco, Bichon?
4:33 pm
bichon

Down the Peninsula a bit, San Mateo. I come out her 4-5 times a year
4:33 pm
Brookie

Gotta go now. Have a great rest of the day, everyone!
4:33 pm
Soodlebum

Can anybody tell me if my icon has changed?
4:33 pm
jmcnrick

yeah we could talk in the dark in our beds or when we were driving because we had to face each other in the light so he could read my lips
4:33 pm

darling husband just pointed out that i havent made him oatmeal cookies in forever.
to be exact, it has been 2 years -- i made them for christmas two years ago. and pretty much, the only time i bake cookies from scratch, is christmas. its rare that i am motivated to do so any other time of year...

but now, i guess i should schedule some time in the near future to make some oatmeal cookies. :)

11:32 pm

They sing Christian music...more contemporary, but some of the old stuff, too, and songs they've written.

I have some sad news....my 25 yr old nephew, who I named my sole beneficiary last year, has decided he no longer wishes to try to stay amongst us, and this morning my sis called to say af5 collapsing at home late last night, earlier this morning they found him in bed and he had attempted to slit himself..he was rushed into the ER and I've not heard from them since this morning...he suffers from depression and bi-polar, but I've wondered all along if it isn't something else...

pav, i am so so sad to hear this news. how difficult this is. i pray he can get help and look forward to life.
11:52 pm
PAV3

I'll call them tomorrow af5noon; as you may know, most health insur plans won't accept 25 yr olds unless their in school, and he had dropped out years ago....

:o( hope he's alright (both physically and mentally), pav...
11:54 pm
PAV3

he stopped taking his meds in the spring, and has been methodically lying to everyone about taking them. AT EOM Oct, he did the same thing, and just before Thanksgiving he and his gf drove to Albuq to visit my mother -his grandmother- and then returned to MN
11:57 pm
Pinikula

* my thoughts and prayers are with him and your family through this tough time *

PAV the new health care law states anyone 26 or under cannot be refused if they still live with their parents. Hopefully that helps. I will put in a prayer.
