1:44 am

jillibus

wd rbud
1:46 am
rbud

I have only one, le4, an old man's dirty look, perhaps?
1:46 am
jillibus

nah, have that dirty old man -- not from that L
1:46 am
flosey

rbud, there's also a 'dirty old man'
1:47 am
rbud

then maybe le4, a man's name, pl?
1:47 am
mrpresident

don't need to be a dirty old man... just a prick! to le4
1:47 am
flosey

yes, guess that describes your nasty neighbour, mrp
1:47 am
rbud

ty, flosey, I noticed it as I was about to use the word le4erous in my clue, haha
1:47 am
jillibus

I guess you know about that, mrp :-(
1:50 am
jillibus

oh my -- monkey found an O word, so now only 2 short for nbt -- the L on the left and the E under it
1:51 am
rbud

try the man's name, or the wind-sheltered side of something, pl
1:51 am
flosey

jilli, I think it's le5/10, the word that looks like a plural but isn't,
1:52 am
rbud

oooh, that was the second one, thanks! :D
1:53 am
flosey

using the lower e
1:53 am
jillibus

ah, got le4/4 (winey, I think) so just need the E now.
1:54 am
rbud

the E is fishy, though it took me ages to see it - el4, means otherwise
1:54 am
jillibus

I suppose that could be considered the wind-sheltered sides of things too
1:54 am
mrpresident

he makes me wanna puke!

uusue2

she's sending him messages, ivesy, which you can do even if you're not a friend - he has to block every new account she creates
3:28 am
ivesy3

ok... wasnt aware that u can do that... can he get a restraining order , to cover any contact
3:28 am
uusue2

did my last response just vanish?
3:29 am
uusue2

ok, no, my internet is wonky, never mind.
3:29 am
uusue2

he's applied for a restraining order, ivesy, and she's already been warned not to contact him. He'll be calling his lawyer in the morning.

hi lyn :) xxx

Hi Sprite & Ivesy
3:42 am
sprite

I think most dutchmen are happy today. Temp dropped significantly. We had quite a good thunderstorm last evening and night.
3:43 am
lynxxx

You have been having a heatwave - or just dry?
3:45 am
sprite

our temps jumped from around 20 C to 35+ C in one day, then, as usual here with high temps, it became humid and hot. Awful tension in the air. And then a huge thunderstorm. Very different from Aus, I bet!
3:47 am
lynxxx

sounds pretty much like Melbourne! 2/3 days of really high temps then a beautiful storm - sometimes just heat lightening and sometimes with rain
3:48 am
lynxxx

and unusually we had a really humid Summer down here too
3:49 am
sprite

sounds familiar indeed. We almost always have heavy rain with the thunderstorms. It goes ratatatatata on the streets and windows and roofs.
We will be having more hot days, even stretches of hot weather in July and August. Almost always followed by thunderstorms and always humid.
Humid isn't pleasant, lyn, am sorry.
3:52 am
lynxxx

Sorry for you too! the humidity is awful...of course it is a constant up in the North of Australia (tropical) but not usual for down South.
3:52 am
sprite

I can handle heat ok if it is dry. But the good part is, I love thunderstorms :)
3:53 am
lynxxx

...and Terra? I always seem to score dogs who are terrified of them
3:54 am
sprite

Terra couldn't care less. With the first hard blast he raised his head and looked at us. We didn't react, he laid down his head and slept on.
3:55 am
lynxxx

Good boy!
3:56 am
sprite

yes he is awesome. I often think his name Lionheart was no fluke, grin. He is afraid of nothing, in for everything, always up for a cuddle and he can sleep like nobody's business.
3:56 am
sprite

but then again, lyn, your Stew is a rescue, and Terra isn't. Terra hasn't had a reason to be scared in all of his life. He is priviliged.
3:57 am
sprite

privileged. Priviledged. Omg, I don't know, lol!
3:57 am
gortmold

hey there sprite and lyn
3:58 am
lynxxx

Lovely! we have a new exhibition in town for a few months "Vienna Art and Design" including some Egon Schiele - one of my most favorites! Sounds like a good day out
3:58 am
sprite

hey gort!
3:58 am
lynxxx

hi Gort
3:58 am
sprite

sounds good, lyn!
3:58 am
gortmold

what is egon shiele - sounds high falutin
3:59 am
lynxxx

an artist Gort - not to everyones taste though
4:00 am
sprite

he is an Austrian artist. Student of Klimt, I think.
4:02 am
gortmold

yeah looks like the love child of klimt and hugh heffner
4:02 am
lynxxx

not so much a student but Klimt was a mentor
4:03 am
lynxxx

Heffner?!
4:03 am
gortmold

so how does a nice babbler like you become a shiele fan
4:03 am
sprite

interesting work. (just looking up some paintings). I like the trees. But I don't think I would like to have one of his people on my wall. Great to visit in an exhibit though!
4:03 am
sprite

ah, close but no cigar, as usual, lol.
4:04 am
lynxxx

I love his figures - had a couple of posters up on walls when we were first married - big fan
4:04 am
sprite

heffner because of the erotic part, I think
4:05 am
gortmold

it's at times like these that I am mindful of what a artistically insensible yobbo i am
4:05 am
sprite

you will have a lovely time then, lyn
4:05 am
sprite

lol gort, why? If we all liked the same things, life would be utterly boring.
4:06 am
lynxxx

I am sure not Gort - would be very boring if we all liked exactly the same things
4:06 am
lynxxx

snap Sprite
4:06 am
sprite

snap, lyn :D
4:06 am
lynxxx

stop that!
4:06 am
gortmold

well cos i dunno one end of a shiele landscape from commercial soft port
4:07 am
sprite

*LOL!*
4:07 am
sprite

so, gort? You know other stuff that we don't.
4:07 am
gortmold

or soft port. I'm pretty good with my ports now - galway, penfolds, etc
4:08 am
gortmold

porn! sheesh i can't spell or recognise art when it bites me in the butt
4:08 am
gortmold

last night a young person called me an "educated bogan" - awesome!
4:08 am
sprite

porn is overrated, grin. As my former boyfriend said: I don't want to watch, I want to do it.
4:08 am
lynxxx

yummmm Galway Port - that brings back memories
4:09 am
gortmold

sounds like a good boyfriend!
4:09 am
sprite

port is good. Ruby or tawny?
4:09 am
sprite

no he wasn't, but he had some good sayings
4:10 am
gortmold

what memories are those, lyn?
4:12 am
lynxxx

Galway is a blend of Shiraz & Tokay apparently so I guess a Ruby
4:12 am
gortmold

btw, clue for the he5/22 pls?
4:12 am
lynxxx

used to drink a fair amount of port in my 20s & 30s and enjoyed it immensely
4:12 am
sprite

well I like both. We have a great store close by that sells cheeses, wine and ports. Lovely.
4:13 am
gortmold

me too, husband and i discovered port sippers - hilariously lewiscarollian glass bulb with inbuilt straw and dear little legs
4:13 am
lynxxx

he5 - like' Summer Br**** makes me feel fine etc"
4:13 am
sprite

I think it rhymes with the name for things like brie, gouda, emmenthaler etc
4:14 am
gortmold

oh cool, got it thanks
4:14 am
lynxxx

I have seen those sippers but have never tried them - good to use?
4:15 am
rubyfoo

good morning
4:15 am
gortmold

yes! assuming you only want to drink an elegant sufficiency, they are the most charming way to imbibe
4:15 am
sprite

awwww sounds terrific, gort! I'd love to try it.
4:16 am
lynxxx

hi Ruby
4:16 am
gortmold

hiya ruby
4:17 am
rubyfoo

lynxx, are yu still there? A cityscape by Shiele was just auctioned off for an incredible amount. He and Klimt are my most favorite painters!!!!
4:17 am
rubyfoo

hello gort
4:17 am

AND that gives me a new icon theme too. Thanks gort!
4:17 am

4:19 am
lynxxx

and another one Sprite - Favourite artist
4:19 am
gortmold

i like norman rockwell. I think that makes me some sort of troglodite
4:19 am
rubyfoo

that is very interesting for you to like one without the other. Hmmm....putting on my Dr. Freud cape....
4:19 am
meliae

ok I think Neener should be allowed, hello everyone
4:19 am

hi meliae :)

4:20 am
rubyfoo

Did you know that Freud had a chow chow?
4:20 am
sprite

I love it, lyn. Putting it in right away.
4:20 am
lynxxx

Klimt is too decorative for me - and also TOO common - prints everywhere
4:20 am
lynxxx

hi Meliae!
4:21 am
rubyfoo

AAAH. NOT SO COMMON around here
4:21 am
gortmold

is chow chow a eupemism for a big....ego?
4:21 am

4:21 am

it has been a long time since I visited the night crew =)
4:21 am
rubyfoo

neener, mel
4:21 am
rubyfoo

I think those are rottweilers
4:22 am
sprite

well you know what they say about just having to look at a man's nose... or car... maybe we can judge by chow chow as well.
4:22 am
sprite

I think chows are more like unmovable objects. They are headstrong like cats.
4:22 am
rubyfoo

they are big, gentle balls of fluff
4:22 am
gortmold

well put, sprite, and how very freudian of u
4:22 am
rubyfoo

very big cats!!!
4:23 am
lynxxx

hang on, you can judge a man's 'equipment' by his dog!!??
4:23 am
meliae

hahahahaah LMAO
4:23 am
sprite

mel, it is lovely to see you. Can't you sleep?
4:23 am
sprite

somehow I don't think a man would enjoy having big gentle balls of fluff.
4:24 am
meliae

nah, but all is well just a restless night, better to get up and do something rather than toss and turn
4:24 am
gortmold

big fat round LOL sprite
4:24 am
sprite

I agree, mel :)
4:24 am
rubyfoo

but 75 lb balls of headstrong fluff
4:25 am
rubyfoo

I think the current word is "package", lynxx, at least that's what the NY papers are using to describe Weiner
4:25 am
gortmold

oh so many responses rush to fore, ruby, and look at me, exercising restraint
4:26 am
sprite

very close to the PB, rubyfoo :)
4:26 am
meliae

hahahah thank you for the we word
4:26 am
rubyfoo

uh oh. My sister keeps sending me newspaper clippings about we****

he's being very aggressive and scary, points his finger at me a lot
4:31 am
gortmold

do u need to get away from him?
4:31 am
rubyfoo

I would if I could
4:31 am
gortmold

what stops u?
4:32 am
rubyfoo

those fluffy balls of chow chow for one thing, my age for another, and $$ for a third
4:32 am
sprite

ruby, take hold of that finger. I mean it. You deserve better than being pointed at in such an aggressive way.
4:32 am
gortmold

ruby i'm terribly sorry. u should not have to live with abuse
4:33 am
rubyfoo

I'm afraid to do that
4:33 am
lynxxx

Can you say down stairs Ruby - he doesn't come down there does he?
4:33 am
rubyfoo

and he brings flowers and wants to take me out for lunch.
4:33 am
rubyfoo

Yes, I am downstairs and walked away.
4:34 am
gortmold

flowers and lunch don't rectify mistreatment
4:34 am
rubyfoo

he has never touched me, but this is starting to really look like the beginning of Alzheimer's
4:34 am
ivesy3

ruby.. never let them c u cry.. just say f+++u and smile.
4:34 am
lynxxx

Let him take you out to lunch and while you are out tell him calmly that you are frightened of him when he does that
4:34 am
sprite

I can understand that, ruby. It is hard to break from fear.
4:35 am
rubyfoo

I'd rather have a pleasant conversation than flowers and lunch, that's for sure.
4:35 am
rubyfoo

good advice, ivesy and I'm not crying, just shaky
4:36 am
lynxxx

You are possibly right about the Alzheimers Ruby - do you have experience with that?
4:36 am
sprite

I am with lyn. You will feel so much better when you stand up for yourself.
4:36 am
rubyfoo

anough about me and my endless problem. Somebody please tell a joke!
4:36 am
gortmold

is it time to put him in a home that isn't yours?
4:36 am
rubyfoo

just what I've read about it and heard from others
4:37 am
sprite

well, how about I come over and stay for a while with you and your beloved? I promise you he will kiss the ground you walk on when I am gone, if only just because he realises how bad he could have chosen ;)
4:37 am
rubyfoo

I can't do that yet because he acts normal more than half the time
4:37 am
rubyfoo

he would love you, sprite, he already does from the collages you've made!
4:37 am
lynxxx

((lots of hugs for Ruby)) I think we all wish we could be there to help you
4:37 am
gortmold

ruby i'm really sorry, it's none of my business, but you're a sweet babbler and I hate to think of you being terrorised. If you were in my town, i'd have you out of there and whisked off to safety
4:37 am
sprite

I think I'd like him too. But I would speak my mind :D
4:38 am

I've tried speaking to his physician but he pays no attention to me

is it just me or does anyone else feel dreadful for ruby and even more dreadful now that she's left chat?
4:46 am

no I guess we all do in some degree, gort. It is tough to have an aggressive husband with beginning alzheimer. Especially when you have low self esteem.
4:47 am
gortmold

i can only imagine. Ruuuubbbyyy come back, we'll talk about fluffy bunnies and any old idle crap u want
4:48 am

perhaps I should visit France for a week or so. If only for moral support.

Hunny, not even therapy helps those twats. He will live his life out a lonely, delusional man... you taking your son under your wing will give him soaring heights and let him acheive his goals
6:56 am
MollyL

His Dad is the one who has lost in this scenario Ivesy. You and your son are the big winners. Good for you.
6:57 am
mrpresident

you NEVER give up on your son... I have a mother who did that, and she is the loser in the end
6:57 am
mrpresident

she lost her soul, her dignity, her everything, all for 'saving her face'
6:58 am
ivesy3

ty , i try.. just breaks my heart that he gave up on his son.. deep down, i know that is part of the whole problem.. asks himself why is my father like this.no matter how old they get., it still hurts them
6:59 am
ivesy3

i will never give up.. i know he can start using at anytime again... been thru it before. but his time, he seems determined.. not only that, he is bi polar too
7:00 am
mrpresident

oh man!! hope he is getting all the right help sweetie!!
7:00 am
mrpresident

he just has to realise he is better than the drugs and worth the man he is, no matter what
7:01 am
ivesy3

a mother of a recovering drug addict never looks beyond the day in front of them. i have learned that.. and he is getting great help from the vets.hospital.. that is who helped him get clean.

Dual diagnosis is doubley
7:05 am
Anniebrook

would it help also to look into something like Al-Anon. That is for parents and partners of alcholics, maybe there is one for parents of recovering addicts too.
7:05 am

Dual diagnosis is doubly hard to deal with. Just goes to show how hard he's worked.
7:05 am

That is a common scam, Mom. Elderly folks are usually the victims. Being told their grandchild is in jail and needs bail money is popular. They prey on people who they think don't have cell phones.
7:51 am

I would like to know am I a bad person by saying that if someone's house is so filthy (constantly) that they have dirty nappies on the floor and a filthy cat litter tray that both kid and cat should be given to someone to care for them until the parents learn how to actually not be disgusting
8:31 am

no, I don't have any but am considering asking for some (or something like it) - have used ambien in the past with some success although it is no panacea

I think xanax has fewer side effects; it just takes care of the middle-of-the-night anxiety

11:31 am
Concepta

They won't ask me again ha ha I'll bring 2 cakes
11:33 am
stidmama

We are going to make a cheesecake for my parents' anniversary. It's a good choice. If I have enough strawberries in my garden we'll use those, otherwise it will have to come from the local berry farm
11:34 am
MollyL

Mmm, cheesecake with fresh berries.
11:34 am
Concepta

Yummy
11:35 am

Hi all, my long haired cat comes in with slugs in his fur. Lots of fun to roll over onto a slug in bed....
12:40 pm
rubyfoo

oh no! that's awful
12:40 pm
fuzzybunny

Yes, it is!
12:41 pm

hello fuzzy
12:41 pm

The cat is entertaining me right now by playing with the little stick thing that opens and closes the blinds
12:41 pm

Hello sadie

my cat brings in lizards. she was in a fight with my shoe one afternoon. guess what i found in the shoe
12:42 pm

cats amuse so easy lol
12:42 pm
rubyfoo

hello sadie
12:42 pm
fuzzybunny

as do we humans
12:42 pm
fuzzybunny

was it a lizard?
12:42 pm
rubyfoo

my dogs aren't playful :(
12:43 pm
onyx

just the tail.still twitching.
12:43 pm
rubyfoo

fortunately, they don't climb on the furniture as they are very long-haired
12:43 pm
rubyfoo

did she eat the rest?
12:43 pm
fuzzybunny

oh no, I think that would be more than I could handle
12:44 pm
rubyfoo

Ruby, the female, spends hours watching the birds on the feeder, like dog TV
12:44 pm
onyx

idk, could be still hiding some where. they turn up in the bath tub when they get thirsty
12:44 pm
fuzzybunny

ruby, does she try and claw the screens to get out at the birds?
12:45 pm
rubyfoo

no, she loves them and watches. A neighbor cat comes, hunting the birds I guess, and Ruby just ignores her
12:45 pm
fuzzybunny

what kind of dog is Ruby? She is very pretty.
12:46 pm
rubyfoo

I had a cat who would throw herself against the glass patio doors, time and again, trying to get at the birds. She'd plan her attack, tail twitching, and then BOOM
12:46 pm
rubyfoo

the black one is Max and the brown one is Ruby. They're lovely, gentle chow chows
12:47 pm
fuzzybunny

Our cat would do that as a kitten, but now that it is summer and the windows are open, we have had to let him out, otherwise we wouldn't have any screens left.
12:47 pm
rubyfoo

does you cat let you groom her, bunny?
12:47 pm
rubyfoo

your*
12:47 pm
fuzzybunny

My husband is the groomer, and he rolls over on his back to get combed.
12:48 pm
fuzzybunny

(the cat, not my husband!)
12:48 pm
rubyfoo

your husband or the cat? hahah
12:48 pm
rubyfoo

snap
12:48 pm
fuzzybunny

our cat thinks it is a dog and loves to play fetch.
12:49 pm
rubyfoo

good night everybody; I give up with 43 to go
12:49 pm
fuzzybunny

good night Ruby!
12:49 pm
rubyfoo

that is very cute. If you try to play fetch with a chow chow, he just thinks "You want me to do what?"
12:50 pm
fuzzybunny

I would think a chow would like to play
12:51 pm
fuzzybunny

pi 5/14?

1:34 pm
stidmama

yuck. allergies. yuck. -- I have learned that if I use the inhaler I was given a couple weeks ago first thing in the morning I breathe a LOT easier most of the day... I guess it's because I stay well ahead of it then.

3:58 pm

3:59 pm
uusue2

actually last weekend my dad and I watched Forrest Gump, and The Frisco Kid, neither of which I had ever seen and both of which I thoroughly enjoyed
3:59 pm

Well, maybe not classic in that sense. Just a very good film that reminds us all what it's like to be 12.

Nef

Hi again. I need clues for that 4th row, 3rd column N and the right O to achieve NBT. Could someone help please?
4:09 pm
uusue2

n is a plural number (singular comes from the n to its northwest)
4:09 pm
Nef

Thanks, sue. What a fish!
4:09 pm
uusue2

or6/21 = or + evergreen tree; leave off the final consonant for or5
4:09 pm
uusue2

then change the central consonant for another or5
4:10 pm
uusue2

ok, final vowel was what I meant, sigh
4:11 pm
uusue2

then once you have the second or5, take that vowel that you removed from the first or6/21 that I clued and stick it in the middle of the new or5 for the final or6
4:11 pm
uusue2

none of these are words I recognize, btw
4:11 pm
Nef

Thanks again, sue. And that first or is a fish too! <blushing about my poor eyesight today>
4:12 pm
uusue2

first two (alphabetically) are chemicals and the last two are plants
4:12 pm
uusue2

not a physics babblet among them :-)
4:15 pm
Nef

there are days that go by without a medical term too. :-)
4:16 pm
uusue2

indeed :-)
4:16 pm
MollyL

Remove vowel, change central consonant, stick vowel back on ....: O
4:16 pm
uusue2

well, it made sense to me :-)
4:17 pm
Nef

I got them though, Molly. Sue's clues worked for me
4:18 pm
MollyL

Good enough Nef.
4:20 pm
Nef

how are you 2 doing today?
4:21 pm
MollyL

No complaints Nef. I'm in the way of being grateful for life's blessings.
4:21 pm
MollyL

How about you?
4:23 pm
Nef

I'm hanging in there. :-) Things are better in some ways; still some rocky spots on the roadbut I'm optimistic about it all
4:24 pm
MollyL

That's a good attitude Nef and a good attitude will get you where you want to be.
4:26 pm
Nef

That's how I feel about it too, Molly. Life's just full of surprises and we can deal with them one day at a time or it can overwhelm us
4:27 pm
Nef

(ie: My peach just juiced all over me! Ooops!)
4:28 pm
MollyL

Sage advice I got once...stay grateful for what you have now while eagerly awaiting your abundance yet to come.
4:30 pm
Nef

I like that. I have a little green refrigerator magnet that I was given by a dear friend when I had to retire from the hospital. It's what I'm holding on my FB page. It says: " Yesterday is History, Tomorrow is a Mystery, Today is a Gift. Use it Wisely" I love that

I am doing pretty well; gave a successful talk to the Kiwanis in a nearby town, and just finished the funding proposal for my Themed Learning Community.
4:34 pm
Nef

what was your talk on, Sue? and what is a Themed Learning Community?
4:34 pm
uusue2

Global warming, nef
4:35 pm
uusue2

and a themed learning community is a group of 2-3 courses for incoming freshmen that carry a common theme
4:35 pm
uusue2

Mine is Calculus and Physics for Engineers - I am teaming with a math prof so students who have to take calculus and physics at the same time get the calculus in their math class before they need it in physics
4:36 pm

afternoon peeps
4:36 pm

global warming is a serious talk! I don't even know what the Kiwanis do; I hope you had a good turnout and good discussion afterwards

the Kiwanis are local business people, nef, I was afraid they wouldn't be receptive but they were very interested
4:39 pm
uusue2

I had to compress it all into about 20 minutes so left out a lot of stuff but gave them a lot of links so they can look things up for themselves, if they wish
4:40 pm
Nef

We've had a teen-aged volunteer who has come to our Center and cleaned every Wednesday after our clinics for the past 2 years. She's entering college this fall (I'll really miss her!); but she says her major is Math and she's planning on a minor in chemistry. I'm thrilled that girls aren't discouraged from those courses these days
4:40 pm

I was a real "freak" a million years ago when I was 16 and went to a Junior Engineers Summer Science Institute at a local college . . .
4:42 pm
Nef

My best friend and I were the first females to take Trig and Physics in our high school (back in the '60's); and the teachers really put us down all the time.
4:42 pm
Nef

It's gorgeous here too, GE. AND our A?C is now working! :-)
4:43 pm
Uneaixoise

Hooray for AC!!
4:43 pm
MollyL

Don't let the Kiwanis fool you. They are hard core party people. : P
4:44 pm
Nef

Both Karin and I ended up with the highest scores on the national tests in trig, one guy beat me out in the physics exams. Karin and I look back and shake our heads at how sexist our school and community were
4:44 pm
Uneaixoise

impressive, nef!
4:45 pm
uusue2

I took high school physics in the 1960s too, nef, and was the only girl in my class; the teacher was quite dismissive until I got 100% on the first test (which no one of any gender had done before); after that he was my best friend, and gave me all kinds of physics books that he had.
4:45 pm
MollyL

<---- Out of her league with all the brainiacs. *hides*
4:46 pm
Nef

Karin is really, really smart; I was just bull-headed and wanted to prove the teachers wrong.
4:46 pm
Uneaixoise

took high school trig AND sat 1st chair trombone -- talk about geeky! LOL
4:47 pm
Nef

Due to spending 1 year in Montana during HS; I took trig, physics and chemistry all in my senior year. I wouldn't recommend that to most HS students
4:47 pm
Uneaixoise

yowser! LOL
4:48 pm
Nef

Unea played trombone! Do you still? (I played clarinet, but quit before I was 20. Lost my clarinet somewhere in college)
4:49 pm
Uneaixoise

played all 4 years of high school -- band leader needed trombonists and there were 4 of us girls who signed up!
4:49 pm
Uneaixoise

no, don't play now but LOVED it then -- marching band, concert band, pep band, jazz band :-)
4:50 pm

I never was in band; too many scheduling conflicts. But I did enjoy playing.....

Morning all. I LOVE American school marching bands - you all do them so well

All 6 of us kids had to play an instrument and take piano lessons when we were young. The uncle who raised us had his own Old Time Dance Orchestra and played every weekend to help make ends meet.

5:47 pm

including breaks, it took them about 7 1/2 hours once they started. AND they didn't trample any of my plants! AND tomorrow I don't have to stay home! AND Friday Mother and I are going to IKEA...

Skylights are great. I would love to have one over my bed.
5:47 pm

Stid--I love IKEA
5:47 pm

mcurl!!! are you up for coffee toward the end of next week?
5:47 pm

I have two -- both leaked... and are now replaced.
5:48 pm

I love IKEA so much that I only allow myself to go once every year or two... *grin*
5:48 pm

That might be doable--still in new mexico but heading home tomorrow morning.
5:48 pm
stidmama

yes, I saw your fb post (and replied to it)
5:49 pm
stidmama

if not, then perhaps some time the week after?
5:49 pm
mcurlschool

when we moved into the new house we went to IKEA to get all our living room furniture; I love that place but it is easy to overspend
5:50 pm
mcurlschool

my computer is sick; got a virus before we left I think and it went viral after we got here. I'm using son's computer
5:50 pm
stidmama

but I love the skylights -- the first 6 months we were here I would go past my office or kitchen and reach in to "turn off the lights" -- it is lovely to have better light, especially in the middle of winter
5:50 pm
mcurlschool

I love the skylight I have in my kitchen.
5:50 pm

oh oh mcurl -- I will fb you my phone #s so you can write them down before you leave...

I hate having sick computers.

okay, numbers sent
5:53 pm
mcurlschool

I have your cell number in my phone. I'll just be without a computer on the way home. Once I get back to "town" my computer guy will take my laptop but I'll have my desktop so not to bad. Thank you for the numbers; I'll check FB in a bit.
5:54 pm
stidmama

oh, okay :-D glad you have more than one, also. We wouldn't survive I think with only one at home -- I keep trying to get the younger stidkid to use HIS computer instead of mine, but he prefers to use his computer as a clothing tree *sigh*
5:56 pm
mcurlschool

I was seriously looking at an android phone before we left but just couldn't bring myself to taking the jump; now wish I had because I could have used it on the road instead! Oh well, live and learn LOL
5:57 pm
stidmama

I like my android a lot -- it's over two years old, and I don't want to replace it. so trying to nurse it along. The newer ones don't have some of the features I really like on the G1
5:58 pm
MollyL

Oh my! Stidkid should be glad I'm not his Mom. I would whisk that computer right out of his room if there were clothes hanging all over it, and I was losing computer time because of that.
6:00 pm
stidmama

actually, the better solution is to restrict access to MY computer. Which will happen if he doesn't get his act together by the end of the weekend... he wants to clean his room anyway, so it's like frosting rather than a carrot.
6:02 pm
mcurlschool

Ithink I would remove the clothing tree computer as well :-) or set my computer up with a password so that no one can access it except me (which I did by the way). My daughter has one of the first android phones out on the market and she can't wait to replace it--it has developed a mind of it's own!

I want to write a story about how everyone wakes up one day and suddenly there are no cell phones. I think mass panic would ensue. I am mystified at why people are so attached to their cell phones.
6:09 pm
mcurlschool

I agree Molly; my kids give me a bad time because I refuse to give up my land line at home and go strictly cell phone. One of these days, sorry to say, I'll be able to prove why!
6:09 pm
stidmama

molly, I got my first cell phone when I was driving our elder son to and from kindergarten (out of district) along a long stretch of sporadically inhabited rural highway in an area with a "meth problem" -- being rural, it's a boon (when we can get a signal)
6:10 pm
mcurlschool

I also got my first cell phone because of the amount of time I was on the road between work, sports, and other activities. It has been a blessing many times.
6:10 pm
stidmama

the other advantage can be that you can have a phone number that is not tied directly to a location, so for people who have concerns about personal security (single women living alone, for example) a cell phone can allow them to be contacted by prospective employers without worrying about being physically located by potential stalkers.
6:11 pm
MollyL

I use my cell phone for calls only, and important ones, not chit chat ones. I renewed my cell phone package today and the guy looked at me like I was from Mars when I said I didn't need text ability. McCurl, I still have a land line too.
6:13 pm
MollyL

Good Lord! Sending our resumes can lead to potential stalkers??
6:13 pm
stidmama

I text the younger stidkid when he is in school -- texts don't ring; he knows I am trying to contact him and can call me back when it's allowed.
6:14 pm
mcurlschool

many years ago my parents were taking off on a trip with travel trailer; I insisted they take my pre-paid cell (what I had at that time). They broke down in the middle of nowhere and as soon as they got home they asked my sister to take them to get their own cell which they used on the road but now use it for long distance calls from home.
6:14 pm
stidmama

yes, molly, it's part of the reason our family maintains a mailing address in town... we have an unlisted phone number for the house and use cell phones or tom's work # for most professional contact numbers
6:14 pm
MollyL

See, in our schools, cell phones are supposed to be turned off during school hours. They aren't and that is not enforced, therefore, the kids are all just texting. Which defeats the purpose of "turn your cell phones off".
6:15 pm
mcurlschool

I'm glad my district enforces our cell phone policy.
6:15 pm
MollyL

*Starts to wonder if the Stid family is famous*
6:16 pm
stidmama

cell phones are taken by the teachers or administrators if the kids have them out during class time. BUT in high school the kids are often on irregular schedules, so I call or text the kid when it's convenient for me.
6:16 pm
stidmama

no molly, just prudent. I used to work in a field that emphasized personal security, so I learned a lot about keeping people safe.
6:17 pm
stidmama

well, my brains and eyes are tired. I need to do something non-computer for a bit or I won't be able to see at all later.
6:18 pm
MollyL

*Sprinkles fairy dust around Stid and puts drops of crystal clear water in her tired eyes*
