Is pure math more difficult than adulterated math?
4:54 am
Lindrickway

Hi BR
4:55 am
BabbleRabble

Hello
4:55 am
dfmchfhf

hi BR!
Pure Mathematics focuses primarily on the concepts behind mathematics -- almost no numbers (!), mostly proofs and derivations, as opposed to applied mathematics, which involves much more working with numbers. (compared to engineering math, or business math, or statistics, or actuarial sciences though, still not a lot.)

that people freely use any and all words in the list in chat...all day... you'd truly not have any idea on the really obscure ones....but it would just be a total crack up in the chog

6:54 am
BabbleRabble

It had been noted in a book about the law that at one time a widow would forfeit her lands and possessions if she was caught in “amorous conversation” but she might reclaim them if she appeared at the next manor-court, riding backwards on a black ram with his tail in her hand, and reciting the following words:
Here I am,
Riding on a black ram,
Like a whore as I am;
And for my crinkum-crankum,
Have lost my binkum-bankum;
And for my tail’s game
Am brought to this worldly shame.
Therefore good Mr Steward let me have my lands again.

Kaplan the Magne

You are a still haven?

hurshy

he means "i still haven't"

Kaplan the Magne

:)
9:25 am
hurshy

so what's the 9? and the other 8? are they a combo by any chance?

Travel from the mainland by air is going to be pretty problematical. Did they fly or get the ferry?

He drove from Southampton to Pembroke, ferry to Rosslare, then drove to Trim. He said it was hairy!

crosshair

i try for 50% lol
12:30 pm
hurshy

yeah that's usually what i do now - well, i usually get at least 90% before listing cause that's pretty reasonable for me. but before, when i wasn't working, i kind of just used babble to occupy as much of my day as possible, so that's when i was more into going listless.
12:31 pm
hootowl

well right now I'm spending as little time as possible here cause there is so much to do for the holidays
12:32 pm

hootowl

Oh sorry about your father but wouldn't the tree help cheer you up?
12:34 pm
hootowl

for me, the decorating would keep me calmer
12:35 pm
hurshy

The little road/cul-de-sac where I live is a hill and only 2 cars went down it today and none came back up.

5 inches is nothing to sneeze about in an area that doesn't have much snow
2:30 pm

Our road is quite a main road through town - lorries use it as a rat run to avoid Chards tourist attraction - the traffic lights and it is still covered in snow

Although that "hair statement" does not appeal to me, I can't believe a judge booted him out of court for it. That has the makings of a great discrimination case.

Traffic court no less. Actually, there is no "less" than traffic court. Maybe it wasn't just the hair, but the whole outfit. Can't see what Santa Homey is wearing, though.
2:53 pm

he was wearing regular clothes
2:54 pm
jmcnrick

just a case of a petty bureaucrat thinking he is all that because he can call himself judge
2:54 pm
Judi

Okay. Well, I think he could make an appeal. Was he found in contempt or just told to return with more appropriate head wear?
2:55 pm
jmcnrick

don't know the details
2:55 pm
jmcnrick

most traffic courts do not have a system of appeal
2:56 pm
Judi

True. However, he could submit a request to the most senior judge to censure the booting judge.

Dorens

3:15 pm
Nef

sometimes, Mark, people get lost in the grid here. Sometimes we wander off for coffee or whatever. I think we all ask for hints and don't get responses at times
3:15 pm
Dorens

tantrums judi? i deal with enough of them at school these days!
3:15 pm
Nef

hi Dorens
3:16 pm
Judi

Sorry. Righteous indignation moment only. Not a tantrum.
3:16 pm
Mark Jones

I can't get a profile because I don't have a credit card #. Too young; People have told me to look at Dr_God but I don't know what it is

3:33 pm
stidmama

YAY Judi!!!

Nef

YAY, Judi!!! WTG!!!

3:34 pm
stidmama

my boys MISSED the morning rehearsal for today's two concerts... and they didn't bother to call us until they were late getting to the pre-concert dress rehearsal!!!!
3:34 pm
stidmama

thanks Nef. *sniffle, whine*
3:34 pm
Judi

Hiya, Stid. Sorry you're not feeling well. We need Haz here for an official ruling on the glaring and unjust absence of "Semite, Semites and Semitic" from the allowable words list.
3:35 pm
stidmama

Mark -- plural of the place you build your house
3:35 pm
Judi

Ho9 is plural of the Ho8:
3:35 pm
Mark Jones

Hey stid! Sorry you aren't feeling well! Nothing to cheer you up like babble!
3:35 pm
stidmama

"negro" is also not found in enable... which is puzzling to me, since it is also a legitimate, historical term
3:35 pm
stidmama

thanks Mark! that's just what I thought, too!
3:36 pm
Judi

It's also the Spanish word for "black". Gee, we never see foreign words in Babble. ARRRGH.
3:36 pm
stidmama

es la verdad, Judi! LOL
3:37 pm
Judi

Okay. I'll be pouting untill tomorrow. Have a loverly evening, all. *POOF*
3:37 pm
stidmama

(((Judi))) have a spectacular rest of your day!
3:38 pm
stidmama

*scans chog for signs of welsh and irish folks....* I suppose it's too late for Haz to show up and settle this.
3:38 pm
Mark Jones

What are you talking about, stid?
3:39 pm
stidmama

Haz is a babbler from Ireland who knows WAY more about words and usage than I do.
3:41 pm
Nef

Haz is a very wise Babbler, but she's on in the morning (for those of us in the US)
3:41 pm

3:44 pm
garyandjulie

how is everyone today?
3:44 pm
stidmama

I don't suppose you want to trade your'n for my clueless newly-minted adult who couldn't remember he had rehearsal this morning?????
3:45 pm
stidmama

other than the kid stuff and the migraine (and the messy house) I am doing really really well. Surrounded by friends (online and real-life) who are keeping me going!
3:45 pm
stidmama

how about yourself?
3:45 pm
garyandjulie

no, but thanks for the offer I am to forgetful to be in charge of a newly minded forgetful adult to
3:45 pm

Mark Jones

Anyone?
3:47 pm
Bugsaw

I don't have it Mark. sorry
3:47 pm
stidmama

3:47 pm
Bugsaw

not even half way
3:47 pm
stidmama

I will look for it Mark, hold on.

stidmama

3:48 pm
SeaSpray

Hi everyone...could I get a clue for the sy8 please?...and Mark I updated several weeks ago and it took a few days for my new icon to show up
3:48 pm
stidmama

it is an adjective derived from a noun. It means having the qualities of a particular chemical.
3:48 pm
garyandjulie

he can try stid, but wont get anywhere so i am trying to forget it. Christmas more important. Let the legal eagles battle it out and earn themselves a nice holiday lol
3:49 pm
Mark Jones

R u talking about moi?
3:49 pm
stidmama

cy + vowel + first three letters of text-spelling for opposite of day + 2/3 of frozen water word

stidmama

Bugs, how are things up your way? the north Sound got a lot of wind last night, but we were fine...
3:52 pm
Mark Jones

I am a rookie at this game and so that is very good for me. I am good with words, but playing with you guys has made me realize that I have a lot more learning to do.
3:52 pm
garyandjulie

its a lovely addiction mark
3:52 pm
stidmama

I am NOT going to make it north this vacation btw... I just need more time recuperating. Will try to come up this summer though.
3:52 pm
Bugsaw

We had a bit of snow during the night but it is washing away as rain right now. I was so exhausted from school I did not pay attention to it and just had a good long sleep.
3:52 pm
garyandjulie

good one to get the kids helping with to sometimes
3:53 pm
stidmama

we ALL have so much to learn! LOL glad you are enjoying the challenge!
3:53 pm
Mark Jones

I am going to HAWAII tomorrow. Anyone jealous?
3:53 pm
stidmama

good for you bugs. sorry school has been so exhausting. are you on break now?
3:53 pm
stidmama

slightly, Mark -- but I hate to travel, so only jealous about the being warm part! LOL
3:53 pm
garyandjulie

wow mark, enjoy your holiday
3:54 pm
MollyL

Howdy Stid, G&J and Bugs.
3:54 pm
ChampFit

Hi everyone!
3:54 pm
Bugsaw

Well stid, if you gus can plan a holiday to the island, you are most welcome to stay here. We have a good double bed for you two, and a futon and or a Westfalia van for the boys. There is lots to see and do here that you might have a good time at a reasonable cost.
3:54 pm
stidmama

hey Molly! :-D
3:54 pm
Mark Jones

I have gone to Israel, so even the 9 hour flight doesn't bother me. Hey Molly1
3:54 pm
garyandjulie

its the packing, unpacking, washing and organising I hate. As a mum it seems more work on holiday than staying at home lol
3:54 pm
ChampFit

SO TRUE!
3:55 pm
stidmama

thank you bugs! If tom ever gets his passport... LOL otherwise, I may just come alone!
3:55 pm
stidmama

hey Champ!
3:55 pm
Bugsaw

I am jealous Mark. I have never been to either place.
3:55 pm
garyandjulie

hi molly
3:55 pm
stidmama

but Bugs HAS been to lovely Olympia, and has seen the wonders of the casino... roflmao
3:56 pm
Bugsaw

We are on our Christmas break now so I have no more excuses to be playing Babble instead of trimming a tree and baking cookies etc.
3:56 pm
SeaSpray

I am envious Mark...I do agree with garyandjulie though abrout the packing, unpacking, etc..just went through that in October
3:56 pm
Mark Jones

I have been to many places in my short life, like hawaii, england, and israel/jordan. Who knows, I might have seen a couple english babblers there!
3:56 pm
Bugsaw

yes stid, that casino was beautiful.
3:56 pm
garyandjulie

my boyfriend was marvelling over fact I had never been to a casino last month.
3:57 pm
garyandjulie

I've been to england mark LOL
3:57 pm
stidmama

Mother made spritz cookies yesterday that I can eat!!! But I haven't tried them yet. She says she'll make some of the regular kind, too, so the "safe" ones will be all for me!
3:57 pm
SeaSpray

Must go get ready to attend a Christmas party..later all and have a great evening
3:57 pm
MollyL

Why can't you eat them Stid?
3:57 pm
stidmama

I have been into the casino Bugs and Jill and jmc and pinikula stayed in, but only to have a meal -- never was in one before that!
3:57 pm
garyandjulie

have fun seaspray
3:57 pm
Mark Jones

See ya later sea!
3:58 pm
stidmama

I can't have cow things or wheat things anymore, Molly -- so Mother often bakes separately for me when she wants to make something nice for my kids.
3:58 pm
stidmama

enjoy, Sea!
3:58 pm
garyandjulie

thats nice of her stid :o)
3:58 pm
SeaSpray

thanks everyone (poof)
3:58 pm
Mark Jones

I am Jewish, so I don't celebrate Christmas. However, I do celebrate Chrismahannakwanzaakah, however you want to spell it;
3:58 pm
garyandjulie

reminds me i must have mince pie before the boys inhale them
3:59 pm
Bugsaw

This was a casino created with interlocking logs, like a log cabin only 4 stories high. It had huge river stone fireplaces and native art and artifacts everywhere. I never gambled but had lots to look at.
3:59 pm
MollyL

Wow Stid, no wheat, no dairy. That's a pretty limited diet.
3:59 pm
stidmama

yes, Mother is wonderful -- I like to cook and bake too, but I rarely have the time and energy to do much.
4:00 pm
Mark Jones

Can I have a hint for the ho9?
4:00 pm
garyandjulie

I made mince pies, shortbread and cinnamon biscuits today
4:00 pm
stidmama

well -- I can still eat most vegetables (not eggplant though), and tolerate chicken and eggs still.
4:01 pm
ChampFit

phatom...soviet
4:01 pm
Bugsaw

how about rice stid? It is usually ok
4:01 pm
MollyL

No loss on the eggplant Stid.
4:02 pm
Mark Jones

I am a very picky eater, so most of the food you are mentioning is not to my tastes.
4:02 pm
garyandjulie

my left side slightly weak so i was really glad when ex bought me a kitchen aid years ago, meant i can ix or knead most things now without getting tired
4:03 pm
Mark Jones

hint for the ho9 please!
4:03 pm
garyandjulie

I can't get into this grid tonight for some reason
4:03 pm
ChampFit

place where a your living place sits
4:04 pm
ChampFit

the plural
4:04 pm
garyandjulie

what sort of things do you like to eat then Mark?
4:05 pm
Mark Jones

I am more into fruit, but I will eat certain chicken and turkey. It is coincidental that all I eat is orange food;lol
4:05 pm
ChampFit

Watching Iron Chef, and the secret ingredient is pork fat....gahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!
4:06 pm
garyandjulie

that made me giggle Mark, and only because when youngest son was a baby he would only eat orange baby food and only out a jar. so we made up real food and had to serve it out of a jar!
4:06 pm
Mark Jones

Champ, i still can't get the ho9.
4:06 pm
garyandjulie

sorry just brought back a memory or 2
4:06 pm
LeslieAnn

ho 4/6 + si 5/10, mark
4:07 pm
ChampFit

ho** + si4
4:07 pm
stidmama

sorry, wandered off when the phone rang
4:07 pm
ChampFit

garyandjulie, you are a GENIUS! Not unlike my friend who uses a whole milk container and puts 2% in for her kids!
4:07 pm
stidmama

LOL about the orange food!
4:08 pm
stidmama

Mark -- where you live is a house, but it is also your ho4.
4:08 pm
Mark Jones

I need the si5, but then I have it.
4:08 pm
stidmama

where the ho4 is placed is a si4
4:08 pm
stidmama

put the two words together for the ho8 and plural for the 9
4:08 pm
garyandjulie

I am crafty like that. my daughter went through stage of not wanting my food so i used to prepare it while she was at school. Take it to mums and mum would give us our dinner on way home from school lol
4:08 pm
stidmama

I eat a lot of rice-based things, bugs!
4:08 pm
ChampFit

the spot. Also you could call it a worksi4
4:09 pm
LeslieAnn

si5 - si + an exam is also called a ***t
4:09 pm
LeslieAnn

i had trouble with the ho9 - kept thinking "stead" for the final part
4:09 pm
ChampFit

Crazy what we do to feed our kids sometimes!
4:09 pm
Mark Jones

I got both, everyone. Thanks guys!
4:09 pm
stidmama

oh, yes, that makes sense too LA!! ((hugs)) how are you
4:10 pm
LeslieAnn

good-o, stid. yourself?
4:10 pm
stidmama

my kids just have to eat what is prepared. Or did, until they got old enough to cook (or defrost) for themselves!
4:10 pm
stidmama

not bad, LA!
4:12 pm
garyandjulie

i do that now, eat it or go without. If the older 2 want something else they cook for everyone. put them off fast
4:13 pm
Bugsaw

stid, I reconnected with the high school that I graduated from because it has an alumni email exchange. This morning all kinds of people were reminiscing about the teachers and I was amazed at how often the same teacher's stern look frightened some and was beloved by others. It made me think of you every time you panic you went overboard.
4:13 pm
stidmama

*frustrated mama look* so se 6 (african money) counts but nigiri (a type of sushi) doesn't. I think enable is prejudiced against asian food
4:14 pm
stidmama

that is SO TRUE, bugs!
4:14 pm
Bugsaw

The frightened ones worked harder to avoid the look and the stronger ones took it as a challenge to do better. so forgive yourself and trust your instincts!
4:14 pm
stidmama

*note to stop panicking when teaching*
4:14 pm
MollyL

I think there is going to be an angry mob with torches outside the Enable offices tonight.
4:14 pm
stidmama

okay, that I can do!
4:15 pm
LeslieAnn

ha, if there hasn't been one by now i think they're safe!
4:17 pm
stidmama

no, I think they keep moving around to avoid finding... like that wikileaks guy.
4:17 pm
LeslieAnn

ha!
4:17 pm
Mark Jones

That was an interesting story;
4:18 pm
LeslieAnn

hmm i am doing well on every letter except that M
4:18 pm
stidmama

so I am down to 38 and have NO 7s!
4:18 pm
LeslieAnn

they're both plurals
4:18 pm
LeslieAnn

and normal words
4:18 pm
garyandjulie

4:18 pm
LeslieAnn

bye julie
4:19 pm
stidmama

4:19 pm
Bugsaw

4:19 pm
Mark Jones

The first one is a synonym to comes
4:19 pm
stidmama

4:19 pm
Mark Jones

Bye julie!
4:19 pm
LeslieAnn

*nudge* ar and vi :)
4:19 pm
stidmama

4:19 pm
stidmama

4:20 pm
Bugsaw

4:20 pm
Mark Jones

Yw. the other one is vi***** of a disaster.
4:21 pm
stidmama

4:22 pm
stidmama

oh, now it is raining REALLY hard. *sigh*
4:22 pm
Shirlockc

vi?
4:22 pm
stidmama

I will need to wear rainboots and take crutches today.
4:22 pm
LeslieAnn

mark just clued, shirl
4:22 pm
Mark Jones

Great. I haven't done many clues, and some of them have made me go to PB. Glad I could help.
4:22 pm
stidmama

not the perpetrator, but the person who was harmed, shirlock
4:22 pm
stidmama

Mark, you did a fine job!
4:22 pm
LeslieAnn

eh, the PB isn't bad, there's usually food ;)
4:23 pm
Mark Jones

Thanks, stid. Great pun, Leslie. *groan*
4:23 pm
Shirlockc

i saw the clue for the vi, just not getting it yet ...
4:23 pm
LeslieAnn

missing an N... have the opposite of day and plural?
4:24 pm
Bugsaw

why the crutches stid? Have you reinjured your hip?
4:24 pm
Mark Jones

I have all three. Which do you need?
4:24 pm
Bugsaw

or worse......
4:24 pm
stidmama

ne 4, like a hebrew prophet
4:24 pm
stidmama

yes bugs, I did something yesterday I think, but this morning I side-stepped and it was clearly not weight-bearing.
4:24 pm
Mark Jones

A skin anomaly, something like that.
4:24 pm
MollyL

When there is an assault, there is a perpetrator and a vi...
4:25 pm
stidmama

I could use a cane when out and about, but when it's rainy it can be slippery.
4:25 pm
Shirlockc

ah! got it now, thx molly
4:25 pm
stidmama

or is that a word for a priest? ne 4...
4:25 pm
MollyL

Stid, you can get a gripper for your cane. A friend of mine has one.
4:25 pm
Bugsaw

poor stid. I don't even know how you can walk when you have a headache, let alone Babble. Migraines flatten me
4:26 pm
Mark Jones

I have never had any broken bones, nor a migraine. How do they feel like?
4:26 pm
LeslieAnn

ah thanks
4:26 pm
stidmama

that's a good idea Molly -- I was hoping I wouldn't need it again, actually. But clearly I am just going to have to deal with it.
4:27 pm
LeslieAnn

migraine = light hurts, sound hurts, moving hurts etc.
4:27 pm
stidmama

Well, I took Exedrin today. Need to refill the prescription stuff.... *sigh*
4:27 pm
MollyL

My friend has Rheumatoid Arthritis, so she needs a cane from time to time. And she lives where there is often snow and ice in winter.
4:27 pm
stidmama

and I can just sleep tomorrow if necessary. It's a small migraine fortunately.
4:27 pm
Good Enough

i'm trippin on Excedrin too stid. one of those days.
4:28 pm
Mark Jones

Does anyone parlez le francais here?
4:28 pm
Bugsaw

the pain from a migraine is so bad it makes me sick to my stomach Mark. Don't ever wish for the experience. I gave birth twice with no pain killers and was not sick so it is a lot worse than that!
4:28 pm
stidmama

hey Good ((gentle hugs and quiet greetings))
4:28 pm
MollyL

Do you take the Excedrin Migraine Stid? I get stress induced migraines from time to time and that's what I take.
4:28 pm
stidmama

je parles only when I can't avoid it, Mark!
4:28 pm
Good Enough

aww that's nice...
4:29 pm
carleekat

i second the gentle hugs and quiet greetings...
4:29 pm
stidmama

the last three migraines I have had didn't have the warning aura, so I think being aware of the vision trigger is changing their course and impact.
4:29 pm
carleekat

getting some kind of bug atm... headache..irritated sinues...and exhaustion
4:29 pm
LeslieAnn

k hit 100 will try to finish listless later. bye all
4:29 pm

Ques-ce- que tu aimes faire, stid? Bonjour, carlee
4:29 pm
Mark Jones

Bye Leslie!
4:30 pm
stidmama

oh oh carlee *hands hot lemonade (spiked, of course), tissues, chicken soup, blankies and tea with honey*
4:30 pm
carleekat

umm...hi mark :) je ne parle pas francais
4:30 pm
Mark Jones

Sounds good enough to me;
4:30 pm
stidmama

j'aime faire babble! (of course)
4:31 pm
MollyL

Carlee, you've been dealing with way too much stress. That shreds your immune system. Sorry you're not feeling well.
4:31 pm
Mark Jones

Anything else?
4:31 pm
carleekat

oh yummy...i have green tea with ginger and mint atm... and some fresh pineapple ( the acid should cleanse the throat if anything is thinking about taking root there
4:31 pm
Bugsaw

moi aussi, Mark
4:31 pm
Bugsaw

I hope it is not the one going around in BC carlee. it keeps coming back and back and back.....
4:32 pm
carleekat

i can count to 100 and that about it...oh..i always remembered the word for grapefruit visualizing a big moose with a grapefruit as a giant pimple on his nose
4:32 pm
Mark Jones

?
4:32 pm
stidmama

I used to like to read, but right now physical reading is limited to babble and anything I can blow up on the computer so I can see it
4:32 pm
Mark Jones

lol, stid
4:32 pm
carleekat

my girlfriend has that one bug and i took her all my vitamins last week...
4:33 pm
stidmama

un, deux, trois, dix, onze, quarante, cent!
4:33 pm
Mark Jones

Again, sounds good to me!
4:33 pm
stidmama

so you gave her vitamins, and she gave you a virus. seems a fair trade! LOL
4:33 pm

I must bid everyone au revoir for the night. Car, I was joking. I saw you before. I guess that blanket ain't thick enough! Anyway, goodbye everyone.
4:48 pm

bye Mark...
4:48 pm

We are used to cold-ish. We are very well used to damp, but this Uber-Cold (minus 10 right now) is just totally freaking us...(well, freaking me!)

4:51 pm

hairdresser whacked off what hair I had, so it's now so short that I'm freezing all the time. Why she did this in winter is beyond me!

when you breathe through your nose and your nostrils freeze together..that is cold..until then..not cold
4:52 pm

Oh Carlee. I know I sound like a wuss, but, for us, minus 10 is unheard of.
4:52 pm

I'm sure you know cold, carlee!

Hello Min. Nice to see you.

Soodle, Canadians define cold by the degree of snot freeze. It's just how they are.
4:53 pm

Go on, Carlee..... tell me what temperatures you have experienced.....
4:53 pm

you call THAT cold, carlee?
4:53 pm

That's a lovely image!
4:53 pm

suck it up buttercup :p or..have some tea...one of our local weathermen in winter calls temps like that " cuddle alert" colder the temp..better it is for cuddling

4:55 pm

4:56 pm

Ok. You win, Carlee. I submit graciously!

Good grief!

However, I do think if BR were here, he may win with the cold temps.
4:57 pm
MollyL

Carlee, I thought y'all had to plug your cars in all winter.
4:57 pm
Soodlebum

I know BR's profile says he is Antarctica, but is he really?
4:57 pm
carleekat

champ..what is amazing we have crazy hot summers here too...up to 33 or 35C with killer humidity
4:58 pm
carleekat

no....i have not plugged mine in since that winter at all. my ex's work truck was diesel so he had to plug his in
4:58 pm
Soodlebum

What part of Canada are you in, Carlee?
4:58 pm
carleekat

BR is in north dakota...and yes..he would win on the "cold" contest
4:58 pm
ChampFit

I'm sure they aren't as humid. The humidity is what makes the summers sucky and the winters too. If it gets cold, it's wet-cold, and miserable.
4:59 pm

My brother lived and worked in Newfoundland for 15 years. He said it was a unique place!
5:01 pm
carleekat

oh god i would shoot him...although not as bad as fort mcmurray...( another 3 hours north of calgary )
5:01 pm
MollyL

Ah, my knowledge of Canadian winter comes from north of where you are Carlee. That must be it.
5:02 pm
carleekat

he'd have fit in well there soodle..they have retained a tinge of the irish accent...they are very laid back ( as there is nothing exciting happening where you are going so you might as well take your time getting there )
5:02 pm
MollyL

Soodle, my husband Dan used to say that Newfies are a unique breed of people.
5:02 pm
carleekat

very friendly...
5:02 pm
ChampFit

Right now, he's 2 weeks in Calgary, 2 weeks home. They may eventually move, but not yet. Her whole family is here...
5:03 pm

Exactly as my bro described it, Carlee. He said it was a wonderful place to live, despite being the butt of a whole lot of jokes.

During the (now deceased) Celtic Tiger here in Ireland, my ex got the real estate agents to value our home. It was valued at €1 million. Doubt if we would get €200,000 now. But that never mattered to me. This is my ho4/6! When I leave here, it will be in a pine box, feet first!
5:08 pm
ChampFit

No, United something...I forget. He worked for a company here that was taken over by Halliburton. He wasn't comfortable with the new peeps, so made the move.

5:09 pm
carleekat

dont know that one...
5:10 pm
ChampFit

He wasn't there long. apparently he was a bit redundant, and didn't care for that, even for the $. Just an odd deal...and I don't want my friend to go!
5:10 pm
carleekat

just think you could visit her for the stampede
5:11 pm
ChampFit

I guess so. Always nice to have a place to visit!
5:11 pm

Kick the bas*ard when he's down, Carlee. And, take pleasure from it. (Speaketh the bitter & twisted Soodle!)
5:18 pm
ChampFit

carlee, just from the bit I've seen on the chog, you've done a wonderful job of taking the high road.
5:18 pm
ChampFit

soodle, she must plan a stealth attack! ;)
5:19 pm
carleekat

no...i am not... i am determined to take the high road... he waants the kids for his bday xmas eve...so be it..he wants them for xmas..and they happy to go..go..have fun...i refuse to yell.. i refuse to rise to the bait...i will not let it be said that i was ever un acommadating..that way when he looks the shit...people will see it for what is is..pure excrement
5:20 pm
ChampFit

and really, when you ask, you can easily show how accommodating you were when asked. It's for the best. The day will come when he'll get retribution!
5:21 pm
MollyL

He wants the kids for Christmas Eve AND Christmas? That's not fair.
5:21 pm
carleekat

well xmas eve is his bday
5:21 pm
ChampFit

Ahhhhh...but next year, who gets 'em? MOM!
5:21 pm
MollyL

Fine, he gets them Christmas Eve and you get them Christmas. THAT's fair. They're your kids too.
5:22 pm
carleekat

and..honestly...if he wants them xmas day ( he has a bigger family...soooo more activity and some from out of town..they are the kids family )
5:22 pm
MollyL

So what? You get to sit around Christmas Eve and Christmas all by yourself? How do your kids feel about that?
5:23 pm
ChampFit

You can switch off from year to year. Next year, YOU get them. It'll be ok.
5:23 pm
carleekat

with me..its me..and my mum...and we both in town...they have uncles coming in from out of town... and really.i am so ok with it...i am not a big lover of the day anyway
5:23 pm
carleekat

i like the preparation...the day itself always a big let down
5:23 pm
MollyL

Sorry Carlee, I just hate to see you being robbed of time with your kids. It's not right.
5:24 pm
sadie52

I hope he is just as considerate of you and time with the kids also!
5:24 pm
Nef

My little grandson woke up; I've been tied up with feeding him and playing with him; etc. DH is watching him for the moment; but I'll be back later (after my son picks him up). Happy Babbling, All!
5:24 pm
carleekat

and we will extend the holiday for the kids... and .when the kids see how the other half live ( not to be a complete snob but..LOW CLASS idiots ) and then see how we live...( middle class....a little more..refined...) they will start to put the dots together...
5:25 pm
sadie52

that they will :)
5:26 pm
Soodlebum

Absolutely Carlee. As the kids get older, and more worldly wise, they will be able to compare & contrast.
5:26 pm
carleekat

i rather the kids come to their own conclusions... its healthier... i do not say anything bad about him... i did tell my son what he did the other day..and he is PO'd about that...but... i did not yell..i told it as if i was a court reporter...and he put the dots together himself
5:27 pm
carleekat

( molls i wont be alone...i will have my cat firmly planted on my ass whilst i babble with other who either alone or do not celebrate xmas :) )
5:27 pm
ChampFit

I have a friend who's kept her mouth shut for 16 years, but finally blew last month. Her hubby had cheated, etc, and the daughter (who's 20) was saying some things about her wonderful dad. Mom finally let loose!
5:28 pm
carleekat

we are both responsible for this marriage failing... i shoulder alot of the blame...not all by any means...but i will take 50% ... SO.. I will not bad mouth him..my mother on the other hand is ready to rip him several new ones
5:28 pm
sadie52

i did the same thing stayed with a cheater and abuser til i finally lost it ....31 years later ...stupid of me too
5:28 pm
Soodlebum

Kids are not stupid. Eventually they will see the big picture. It may not be a pretty picture, but when the kids see the actuality.... well...., it brings some things into focus.
5:29 pm
sadie52

no they are not stupid my kids do see the big picture they say they had one parent me...
5:29 pm
ChampFit

I think you're doing the right thing. Someone has to be the adult.
5:30 pm
MollyL

Good for your friend Champ. Keeping quiet and accepting unacceptable behavior is not the way to go. At least not in my world.
5:30 pm
sadie52

yep thats right your kids will remember who was that adult too
5:30 pm
carleekat

my ex emotionally abused me for years...and in either self preservation or retaliation....damaged things further...until it was irrepairable...
5:30 pm
carleekat

i damaged things further...I..i lieft out the I
5:30 pm
sadie52

yep verbal and emotional abuse is horrid
5:30 pm
ChampFit

I hope that one day he'll become an adult too.
5:31 pm
carleekat

i really dont care...he can go on his merry way...just pay up bub
5:31 pm
ChampFit

But it would be nice if one day the relationship was civil. Easier.
5:32 pm
carleekat

my kids are almost grown... once they gone i intend to have nothing to do with him..period
5:32 pm
sadie52

that makes things alot easier on the kids as well as the adults.......unfortunately sometimes its just not possible
5:33 pm
sadie52

thats the way i am now carlee kids are grown i have nothing to do with him its just safer for my mental health
5:34 pm
carleekat

is molls still fuming in the corner cus i wont have the kids for xmas?
5:34 pm
MollyL

I'm not fuming.
5:35 pm

i dont like his family....they never treated me well...i was always the snob/bitch...
5:35 pm

My husband of 20 years just vamoosed one day (june 2007). Left 3 kids bewildered, confused and terrified. Life has continued (standard of living decreased, but quality of life 100% up.) Me and kids seriously looking forward to Christmas!
5:36 pm
MollyL

Nope, not stewing either. I just don't like to see people I care about treated unfairly. That's just the way I am.
5:38 pm
MollyL

His loss Soodle. I'm sure you've been told more than once that you're better off without him.
5:38 pm

5:40 pm
MollyL

You're right Cos, you're one of the good ones.
5:40 pm
ChampFit

True cos! I've been with mine for 26 years, and no one's leaving this deal unless in a pine box.
5:41 pm

26 years thats great! its such a shame more couples cant be like that.. my generation marry too quickly
5:41 pm
cosdem

thank you molly :)
5:41 pm

Grace of God, I tell you. I married at 21, but knew I was right. At least I can tell mom "Told you so!" now!
5:42 pm
sadie52

thats awesome Champ
5:42 pm
Soodlebum

LOL cos! Moll, you are not the first person to say that, but, heck.. being a single mom to 3 teenagers has been.... a challenge! Meanwhile ex-husband enjoys the single life offered by the delights of..... guess where? Bangkok. WTF
5:42 pm
cosdem

haha thats good.. we were together for 5 years before we got married.. of course it wasn't legal these 5 years lol
5:42 pm

5:42 pm
ChampFit

My parents were engaged for 6 years before they married. But they stayed together till Dad passed last year.
5:43 pm
MollyL

Cos, would you say that being in an abusive relationship makes a person less likely to stand up for what they deserve?
5:43 pm
ChampFit

Teenagers are a challenge no matter what. Single-handledly is amazine!
5:43 pm
carleekat

we were together 20 years... oh well..
5:43 pm

Carlee, getting back to what you said earlier, I will mis-quote The Little Prince. You are responsible for your rose. That is to say, be the guiding force in your life and hear the music of your heart.

6:15 pm
sadie52

and spread all through ears throat and lungs
6:16 pm
suefrad625

be carefull, i got totally dehydrated due to the amount of sinus meds I took
6:16 pm
sadie52

yea nasty huh sue lol
6:16 pm
suefrad625

Oy Sadie. You need to be slathered with Vicks and wrapped in steamy towels.
6:16 pm
suefrad625

molly, i think I am loving you
6:16 pm
sadie52

well only sinus med im taking is mucinex and i drink alot all day long
6:16 pm
sadie52

6:16 pm
MollyL

6:17 pm
sadie52

6:17 pm
sadie52

my father in law used to make me a cough syrup with honey lemon and whiskey
6:17 pm
sadie52

good stuff lol
6:18 pm
MollyL

Actually, flooding your system with water when you're sick aids recovery. There is a reason for that "drink plenty of fluids" advice. Your body is using all the liquid you take in to manufacture mucous. (Sorry, gross, but true)
6:18 pm
suefrad625

oh, well you should try the afrin at night and I stand in the hot shower with my head tilted to the water and let it run into one nostral and out the other, like those pots they sell
6:18 pm
sadie52

yes it does
6:19 pm
MollyL

Neti Shower.
6:19 pm
sadie52

ohhh at night i have nasonex
6:19 pm
sadie52

script from dr
6:19 pm
suefrad625

thats it molly
6:19 pm
sadie52

i saw those Molly i should use something like that
6:20 pm
sadie52

i have made a couople trips to wally world for meds and keep forgetting the saline solution
6:20 pm
suefrad625

if you do that after you get rid of this infection, it will get the allergents out of your nose before they can get you sick
6:20 pm
suefrad625

I do it now each time i take a shower
6:21 pm
sadie52

yea my system is run down from surgery this summer and so its lasting longer then it should
6:21 pm
sadie52

its a good idea
6:22 pm
sadie52

teas have been helping alot too ive alot of different flavors and they seem to help
6:22 pm
suefrad625

I claimed your health with God, so you will be feeling better soon
6:23 pm

6:26 pm
sadie52

Ive gone though a great deal since my decision to split finally with ex and God has gotten me through it :)
6:27 pm
MollyL

I've been reading about foods that are immunity boosters. I've had a rough year (three deaths of those close to me, one being my husband). I've also read that regular yoga and meditation help boost immunity.
6:27 pm
suefrad625

I did 5 yrs ago, and when I couldnt see Him, He saw me.
6:28 pm
MollyL

Oh, and you two are right. Regular communication with the Great Spirit has gotten me through some very tough times.
6:28 pm
suefrad625

and He gave me a wonderful Man.
6:28 pm
suefrad625

he is THAT guy that everyone else had
6:29 pm
sadie52

right now frankly im happy to be on my own i had so many years of abuse that Im just fine on my own for the first time in my life :) and I thank God for that
6:29 pm
suefrad625

and now I have the most wonderful, stubburn man who CHERISHES me
6:29 pm
sadie52

awww thts great sue :)
6:30 pm
MollyL

Being cherished is a beautiful thing. Good for you Sue. Aren't you getting married soon?
6:30 pm
suefrad625

You are right sadie. there is a great class churches offer and it is on the web also. Divorce Care Class, it helped me even when I thought I was doing fine
6:31 pm
suefrad625

I think we are going to wait another couple of years. Till his 16 yr old is 18 and finished with school. They live 40min away and he doesnt want to change schools. As for me, If we are going to wait, I am going to go for my BA.
6:32 pm
sadie52

well i have been in therapy with a wonderful lady for a couple years now that helps and i have my kids. But i didnt have the cherished that others had and frankly get to figureing its not meant for me or something so i dont look for it if that makes sense
6:33 pm
sadie52

good for you sue good luck with the ba
6:33 pm
sadie52

BA
6:33 pm
suefrad625

that is NOT true. Your X was and ass
6:34 pm
MollyL

Sorry Sue. I must have you confused with another Sue who was here a while back talking about being on a diet to fit into her wedding dress.
6:34 pm
MollyL

Sadie, we are all meant to be cherished. It starts with cherishing yourself and radiates out from there.
6:34 pm
suefrad625

Mine touched me every 3-5 months. I thought I was the most ugly thing in the world. He made me feel like crap. He married me and had children so he could tell all his alcoholic buddied he got married and had kids.
6:35 pm
sadie52

im not sure why mine got married i was stupid enough though to believe its true
6:35 pm
suefrad625

I am the one Molly, we just decided to wait. Heck, I want to spend the rest of my life with him, why not wait a few years? this way I get the financial help to go to school and sex on the weekends
6:36 pm
suefrad625

I was so stupid too sadie, or at least I thought I was.
6:36 pm
suefrad625

and felt like the brunt of a joke when I found out all the crap he was doing
6:36 pm
MollyL

Loving someone is never stupid.
6:37 pm
suefrad625

but God has the last laugh all the time. He will take care of him as long as I stay true to Him
6:38 pm
sadie52

yea it was stupid on my part i should of known he wasnt good i berate myself for that all the time im not a stupid woman although i must admit to gettin a thrill when i get words where with out clues lol
6:38 pm
sadie52

yes that is right sue and how i feel
6:38 pm
sadie52

Ive got a roof over my head now and still have good friends in real life and on the net im content
6:40 pm
MollyL

Sadie, quit berating yourself. It serves no purpose. (((Sadie)))
6:42 pm
sadie52

ty Molly and im not meaning too, I can't be all bad God loves me still :)
6:43 pm
sadie52

but everyone has something about themselves thats just not all that bright and mine is marrying my ex i know people im good with them i should o known better lol
6:44 pm
MollyL

One trick I use is that every time I have a negative thought, I have to counter it with two positives.
6:44 pm
sadie52

you sure youre not my therapist lol
6:44 pm
MollyL

There have been times when I've thought love was a form of insanity.
6:45 pm
MollyL

is a form
6:45 pm
sadie52

I agree with that :)
6:45 pm
sadie52

although in alot of cases its a very good insanity
6:46 pm
sadie52

i have friends that have been together for along time several couples and i love that , its nice to know there is a good end to marriage :)
6:46 pm
sadie52

a long
6:47 pm
sadie52

er hmm not good end good solution is better
6:51 pm
MollyL

The couples that I know who have remained together for a long time, have done so because they remain friends with each other.
6:53 pm

What we heard then was high-pitched, nasal, and ear-splitting singing. Mostly we listened to XMHA, just like any US station. Ella singing "A tisket, a tasket..." which I learned in the American accent I didn't have then.

Well, I've been checking outside and waiting to see if the miracle will happen that Beloved told his Mum would have to if we were to get to their house for Sunday lunch later. It's not happening, so just as well I asked him to get a chicken from the supermarket at the end of his journey home from work through the snow. The journey normally takes 30 mins but was 3 and a half hours long this time.

My son and daughter set off for Munich for the Christmas market at 7.15am on Friday morning. They had a 2 hour delay at Birmingham airport, then a 10 hour delay in Brussels, 3 hours of which were spent standing in a queue. When they finally reached Munich at a quarter to midnight, both my son's and my Ex-Hubs luggage had been lost. What a nightmare!

Rain is wet, snow is a bloody nuisance (if you have to be somewhere or get to somewhere).
10:11 pm

Dr - He probably was. She designed the tattoo herself.
10:11 pm
DR1965

very true
10:16 pm
Jacula

She told me of her plan for her design for a tattoo on her back a couple of days ago. I hate her mucking up her lovely skin with tattoos and piercings but there's no point in falling out with her over it because she's still the same person and my daughter whatever. Beloved has had to deal with this now since his daughter hit 16 and had her lip pierced today.
10:17 pm
Jacula

He was so cross with her when she told him of her plans, but I had to stand up for her because it's what kids do now and, whatever she adorns herself with, she's still his daughter.
