2:45 am
jillibus

I've been to Stonehenge -- twice -- in 1936 and 1968
2:45 am
westford

it looks amazing
2:45 am
Jivingjenny0

It used to be absolutely wonderful, but now it is rather commercialised and you are no longer allowed to walk around the stones. It's a pity, but a necessity.
2:45 am
jillibus

poor josh will likely have a giant hangover tomorrow
2:46 am
westford

oh that is too bad..that's what I'd like to do
2:46 am
jillibus

we could go right in when I was there, jenny -- so long ago. Why do a few people have to spoil things for everyone else?
2:47 am
westford

josh said he didn't think he was doing enough re the wedding..I told him it was best if he stayed out of it lol
2:47 am
westford

back in the early 70's we could walk on the Parthenon too
2:47 am
jillibus

you're right, west.
2:48 am
westford

2:48 am

2:50 am
jillibus

oh, thanks norma -- had me puzzled there for a bit!
2:50 am
Jivingjenny0

I have seen it from the road since they stopped you going right in but haven't ventured any further parly because it cost £7.50 each to get in!
2:51 am
westford

I suppose they need the fee for the upkeep
2:52 am
westford

which is pretty funny since it's a ruin
2:53 am
westford

I would like to announce with a great deal of pride that I finally have nbt
2:54 am
westford

that bottom middle a was my downfall
2:54 am
Jivingjenny0

3:30 am
westford

what happened?
3:31 am
rubyfoo

I use a food mill to remove the seeds but I guess they just weren't very juicy
3:31 am
westford

I liked the no8
3:31 am
westford

we don't have very many musical words
3:31 am
rubyfoo

me, too, but what a small grid for a Saturday
3:32 am
rubyfoo

are you up extremely late or very early?
3:32 am
westford

the first one
3:32 am
westford

can't sleep so here I am
3:32 am
rubyfoo

perhaps it's better than sleep
3:32 am
westford

what did we do without babble?
3:33 am
rubyfoo

I can't remember, lol
3:41 am
rubyfoo

ooh, I just got an o6 on my own
3:42 am
westford

3:42 am
rubyfoo

a real word lol
3:43 am
rubyfoo

for a change
3:43 am
rubyfoo

I can't believe my husband has moved his aperitif time from 11AM to 10:30! Too bad for him, I'm not joining him
3:44 am
westford

that is early..
3:45 am
westford

he must be an early riser
3:45 am
rubyfoo

his eyes are bad and he gets up at 5AM, so can't read as long as he would like -- but still.....
3:45 am
rubyfoo

and he would eat lunch at 11 now, if I would agree
3:46 am
rubyfoo

but I make him wait 'til 12 as we have a big breakfast on Sat and 'til 6 for dinner, although he'd like to eat at 5
3:46 am
westford

that's more like brunch
3:46 am
rubyfoo

old age is no joke!
3:46 am
westford

no kidding
3:47 am
rubyfoo

and since the big breakfast kills my appetite, you can imagine my interest in the other meals.....
3:48 am
westford

we eat late husband's mother used to have dinner on the table at 5 p.m. not here lol
3:48 am
rubyfoo

it breaks up the day too much and keeps me from seeing neighbors, etc
3:49 am
westford

I thought all Europeans dined late
3:49 am
westford

and took 3 hour lunches
3:49 am
rubyfoo

they do and we don't, so when they're cleaning up after lunch, I'm starting dinner
3:49 am
westford

so civilized
3:50 am
westford

did you get a new housekeeper yet?
3:50 am
rubyfoo

the only nice thing that happened this week as, when looking for something else, I found a large drawful of my old artwork from '68-'78, that my son had carefully put aside for me
3:50 am
westford

oh how nice
3:51 am
rubyfoo

our temp finished Friday and I'm hoping that the "real" one will start on Monday. This house gets very dirty, very fast!

and the temp only worked 5 or 6 hours a week!
3:52 am

that's hardly enough
3:52 am
rubyfoo

drawful sounds like a portmaneau word
3:52 am
westford

lol
3:52 am
rubyfoo

not with two long-haired dogs and a literally dirty garden (the sod didn't take!)
3:52 am
westford

an awful drawful
3:52 am
rubyfoo

or fully dreadful
3:53 am
rubyfoo

you can't imagine the dog hair and footprints
3:53 am
westford

I thought sod always worked..we just had some stuff sprayed on
3:53 am
westford

hydro seed I think it's called
3:53 am

I take care of the kitchen, cooking and laundry but can't do a lot more than that
3:53 am

that's enough !!
3:54 am
rubyfoo

I'm ready to paint that section of lawn green. Husband wants to pave it over!
3:54 am
westford

our new brick patio is beautiful
3:54 am
rubyfoo

it is very shady and the sod just turned to a muddy carpet
3:54 am
westford

only have less than half the yard for lawn now
3:55 am
rubyfoo

who laid the bricks? a professional? and are they in a zigzag pattern?
3:55 am
rubyfoo

nobody who looks at the garden says "Nice grass!"
3:55 am
rubyfoo

they notice the flowers
3:56 am
westford

yes very professional and not zigzag. started out that way and we didn't like it so they started over
3:56 am
rubyfoo

I had better go now with less than half done. But it's been very nice chatting with you westford; I hope you can get some sleep
!
3:56 am
rubyfoo

what is between the bricks?
3:56 am
westford

nice to see you too ruby
3:57 am
westford

some kind of sand..they did a fantastic job
3:57 am
westford

I'll post pictures
3:57 am
westford

the entire yard had to be graded and you wouldn't believe the roots
3:57 am

I would love that, but unfortunately, we have to continue the flat stones from the pathway or it will look too odd

Only 76 words and 13 of the tiles are vowels. Wheeeee! Who do I have to pay to get a decent grid on a Saturday?
6:05 am

unfortunately i believe doc just lets them generate randomly
6:05 am
Soodlebum

Me Me. Pay me!!
6:05 am

(Cant do anything about the grid, but needs a cash injection....)
6:06 am

Weird odds then. They have been small on Saturday for weeks now. Hi Hursh. Hi Soodle.
6:06 am
Soodlebum

Hi Hursh, Molls :-)
6:06 am
hurshy

chance is a funny thing
6:07 am
MollyL

*Quickly checks Lottery tickets*
6:07 am
Soodlebum

.............(holding breath..........)
6:07 am
hurshy

the lottery is simply a voluntary tax on the poor - another example of class warfare.
6:08 am
MollyL

Breathe Soodle, I'm still a peasant.
6:09 am
Soodlebum

I know, Hursh, but I have been doing the same set of numbers for years now, and I am petrified that the day I stop doing them,.....the inevitable will happen.
6:09 am
MollyL

Well, the lottery gives me a chance at a dream a few times a week. I can't knock that.
6:10 am
Soodlebum

What Molly said!
6:10 am
hurshy

sigh.
6:11 am
hurshy

maybe you need a different dream. maybe your sense of what a lot of money would do for your life is inaccurate.
6:11 am
MollyL

Meanwhile, I have the Summer cold from hell, so it's hot liquids and old movies for me today. *Sniff*
6:12 am
hurshy

or you could find a friend who would do what my dad used to do for people - they paid him the money they used to put on lottery tickets, and then when they felt like winning, he'd give it all back to them.
6:14 am
hurshy

this grid makes me want macaroni and macaroons
6:15 am
MollyL

Oh thanks for the clue Hursh. : )
6:16 am
hurshy

clue? what clue?
6:16 am
MollyL

One of your words, less two letters.
6:16 am
Soodlebum

LOL, yeah, thanks Hursh. That gave me the color.
6:17 am
hurshy

oh, i see. :)
6:17 am
MollyL

Three letters
6:19 am
Soodlebum

That was quite a good idea your Dad had with the lottery players, Hursh. But, I think I will continue with my quest for millions :-)

Hi Mary

Maryte

Hey Soodle!
6:26 am
Maryte

I'm with you on the lottery.....cha-ching!
6:27 am
MollyL

Along with making sure my family is taken care of, I have a philanthropic use for lottery winnings, so I figure I would put the money to good use. I have no desire for fancy cars and rich stuff.
6:29 am
Maryte

Seriously, me too....I am quite comfortable with my lifestyle... After making sure that my family is taken care of.... I would help others with the money...my fav is foster children..
6:31 am
MollyL

That's good Maryte. There is a lot of room for improvement in the care of foster children. Sometimes I think foster animals are treated better.
6:34 am
Maryte

they have so little.....the highest expectation these children have is a decent meal and someone who cares...you rarely see foster kids with a pair of Nikes or a Dora backpack....
6:35 am
Soodlebum

<---------- hanging head in shame, as dreams of luxury yachts, fast cars and a debauched life fly out the window.....
6:36 am
MollyL

There is a running theme in the TV show "Bones" where two of the main characters were foster kids. They touch on the subject of what it's like to grow up that way. I give the writers some credit for using that to create awareness of the situation.
6:36 am
hurshy

it's highly admirable to want to help foster children. it's just, if you set out with that goal in mind and tried to figure out the best way to help, playing the lottery would not be high on the list.
6:36 am
Maryte

Not that name brands make life better, its just they know they will never own what our children take for granted, I want to set up scholarships for these kids....Soodle..you know what you would do...you are too nice...
6:38 am
MollyL

<--- Knows that Soodle would be donating to worthy causes in between yacht trips and rides in her fast car.
6:38 am
Maryte

I already help these kids Hurshy.... winning the lottery would really expand what I can do.....
6:39 am
Maryte

O.k. I know Soodle would take them for rides on the yacht and fast cars!!!
6:40 am
Soodlebum

Good for you Maryte. (meanwhile I consider myself to BE a worthy cause :-)...)
6:40 am
ivesy3

my sister took in foster kids..adopted two litle brothers.. gave me two beautiful nephews
6:41 am
Maryte

haha!! If I win, I will get you a scholarship!!
6:41 am
Maryte

God bless her Ivesy! It is a wonderful calling....
6:41 am
Soodlebum

Thanks, Maryte. To Barbados, or Hawaii, please!!
6:42 am
Maryte

University of Hawaii??
6:42 am
Soodlebum

Ivesy - thats fantastic. I took 2 little boys from Chernobyl one summer. It was very difficult, but so rewarding.
6:42 am
Maryte

or University of Fiji??
6:43 am
ivesy3

yes, it is difficult.. she had to give up quite a few that we became attached to. dont think people realize how many kids out there need a family
6:44 am
Maryte

But Ivesy..she sent them onward with the experience of someone who really cares and what a real family is like...
6:45 am
ivesy3

true.. she would have adopted them all lol!
6:46 am
MollyL

I think dreams are a good thing. Life would be very bland and mundane without them.
6:46 am
Maryte

here, here Molly!! So true.....
6:46 am
ivesy3

i dream im out of debt.. in the meantime its a nightmare
6:47 am
MollyL

(((Ivesy)))
6:47 am
Soodlebum

We still get letters from the two lads we took for the summer. They are both 19 now, and doing very well. They still speak highly of their summer here. I think my own kids benefited more than the 2 fostered kids.
6:48 am
MollyL

Letters? You actually get letters? Not texts that say "how r u". I am overjoyed that people do indeed still write letters. Yay!
6:50 am
Soodlebum

Actual letters Moll! Its a joy to receive them, in among all the bills. I know the feeling, Ivesy!

9:26 am

it's funny, crossy, we like brocollini. Cook it to death, saute with garlic and olive oil. It's wonderful
9:27 am
crosshair

never seen brocolini
9:27 am
MollyL

Fresh peaches are a little bit of heaven. So juicy, you have to eat them over the sink.
9:27 am
rubyfoo

I just yelled at the neighbor-children "Shut up!" and the screaming stopped immediately. Husband was very embarrassed.....
9:28 am
crosshair

yup,i have a beard,so i make a total disaster of myself when i eat fresh peaches:)
9:28 am
rubyfoo

We get white peaches here, molly, and I've been making preserves with them while they last. They're the best
9:29 am

I guess I'm a grumpy person, but it gets very tiresome when children scream all the time. I don't know how their parents stand it.

what i dearly miss are the sweet pea pods right from the garden
9:29 am

I have the most tomatoes this year that I've ever had, enough to give away! And they're huge.
9:30 am
Maryte

tis a good year for tomatoes and cuccumbers
9:30 am
crosshair

i remember as kids we would sit in the garden for hours eating peas
9:30 am
rubyfoo

I loved growing peas but then, after the second year, developed a severe allergy to the pods and the raw peas, severe enough to need an adrenalin shot
9:30 am
crosshair

:(
9:31 am
rubyfoo

one year, since we've lived here, all the tomatoes in this valley turned black. Very weird
9:31 am

I used to love shelling peas and eating the occasional raw pea.....

I can't even reach half! (but I couldn't yesterday, either)

9:35 am
MollyL

I need to prepare my soil better next year. I enjoy the process though, even if the yield is sparse.
9:36 am
rubyfoo

my husband thinks it's cheaper to buy them every week, but there's no pleasure in that!
9:36 am
rubyfoo

and, no matter what, home-grown tomatoes taste better!
9:37 am
Marija rutkauska

i live just out side Montreal, it is on the west side of Montreal island in a small town called Kirkland
9:37 am
MollyL

The only place around here that I can get produce as fresh as home grown is at the Amish market. Their baby potatoes are SO good.
9:37 am
rubyfoo

as crossy said about peaches, they don't have to ripen on the truck
9:38 am
rubyfoo

your name looks Finnish or Lithuanian, so I thought you'd be in Europe, Marija. Presumptuous Ruby (sorry)
9:38 am
rubyfoo

many people around here grow their own potatoes and they are reputedly, much better
9:40 am
Marija rutkauska

My father is from Lithuanian, my mother from Ireland, we immigrated from Yorkshire england into Ontario, then i met my husband who is from Montrea so i am here now
9:40 am

$2,50 a basket..crossy is in peach heven!
9:41 am
rubyfoo

well, marija, it is nice to see you here. My husband's antecedents came from Lithuania, too, but in the 19th C.
9:41 am
rubyfoo

that is a good price, crossy, you should "put some up" for winter
9:41 am
MollyL

I have tried growing potatoes, but apparently, they need cool nights, which we don't have in the summer.
9:42 am
crosshair

i have never done preserves in the last 15 years,i am out of practice
9:42 am
Marija rutkauska

thank you Ruby, it is a small world, i think we r all related at some point
9:42 am

boiling all those darn jars and rubber rings is all i can remember lol
9:42 am

and the wax plugs
9:42 am

I've never had home-grown potatoes, but even the ones in the market are better than American ones (but it doesn't make up for the terrible beef!!!!!)

I don't bother with that, crossy, just make the jam or jelly, get the jars really full, invert them and hope for the best.

uh oh, making marija a vodka smush in the pb! lol
9:46 am
crosshair

problem is now i have no equipment,will need a case of jars,lids and rings and the deep boiler pot...peaches will cost 10 dollars a pint by the time im done lol
9:47 am
rubyfoo

I don't do it that elaborately, crossy, just do small batches at a time. I boil the jars and lids for a little while and the worst thing that ever happens is a little mold forms and I just scoop it off! That's why I'm so tough
9:47 am
MollyL

The cost of all that stuff is why I freeze leftover fresh fruit.
9:47 am
crosshair

lol ruby makes her own pennicillin
9:47 am

yes, molly, except my fridge/freezer, appears to be dying.
9:48 am

from what the locals say, that mold won't hurt you.....it's a little bit disgusting, but I wear gloves
9:48 am

sorry , pushed wrong button, was trying a new word. Crossy what r your roots if i may ask? thank you ruby for the vodka smush

That would be the pantry of my friends in Pennsylvania. They have a small farm and they put up fruit, vegetables, spaghetti sauce and salsa.

not to worry when the country goes bankrupt,they will have to pull the troops
10:00 am
rubyfoo

molly, between you and me, we could probably settle this deficit problem: legalize drugs, raise taxes on the rich and end these futile wars!
10:01 am
crosshair

lol,make weed legal and the taxes would pour in
10:01 am
rubyfoo

exactly!
10:01 am
MollyL

Oh but Ruby, they will never raise taxes on the rich. The rich run the country. And yes, it's high time we AT LEAST legalize marijuana.
10:01 am
rubyfoo

did anyone (refering to Crossy's note) see Saving Grace with Bl;enda Blethyn, one of my faves
10:02 am
MollyL

Nope, haven't seen it.
10:02 am
rubyfoo

opium growing finances the taliban. So drug companies make money with synthetic opium. How stupid is that?
10:02 am
crosshair

legal booze can be more evil than legal weed can ever be
10:03 am
rubyfoo

Legalize opium and the war in Afghanistan would end (taliban would run out of money), painkillers would be virtually free, and the drug company lobbies would lose their power
10:03 am
MollyL

My ex used to say he would much rather meet a stoner in a dark alley than a drunk. The worst thing the stoner will do is steal your twinkies. : )

Ruby is not popular!
10:04 am

crossy thinks what legal weed in grams,1/4 oz and half oz would do for his convienienvce store monthly totals:)
10:04 am
rubyfoo

that's so true, moll
10:04 am
MollyL

You are popular with me Ruby. It's high time the drug lobbies and the insurance leeches get squashed.

I could grow it for you, crossy, in my potager
10:04 am

lol
10:05 am

here an oz or less right now is just a ticket,not a felony like of old
10:05 am

I think the drug lobbies are responsible for the border problems with Mexico and the war in Afghanistan! Next, they'll start monitoring my e-mails!!! hahahah

Not familiar with that. Is it north?
11:39 am

near Morristown
11:40 am
uusue2

so yes
11:40 am

Aha! northwest Jersey.
11:40 am
hego

Nice up there.
11:40 am
uusue2

north central, anyway
11:41 am
uusue2

it is - his house is on the top of a ridge, so when you look out his living room window all you see is woods
11:41 am

he's near the intersection of 287 and 78

11:45 am

last time i was there was in the mid 60s; I'll bet it's changed a lot since then!
11:46 am
hego

Yes, it was nicer then.
11:46 am
hego

And way less expensive.
11:47 am
uusue2

we usually just went for the day, with a picnic lunch, so the main expense was parking (and gas, which was very cheap back then)

11:58 am
crosshair

both doing fine trif;) and how about you and your clan?
11:59 am
Trifioso

mostly well, thank you! Summer is my VERY busy season, and this year has been more busy than last, so that's been a challenge. Primo is SO excited to be heading off to college soon, but he has had a tough summer due to a very troubling bout with Lyme disease that really knocked him for a loop. He is down to just 116 lbs, which is a light weight for an 18 year old, obvs.
12:00 pm
crosshair

lyme disease? from ticks right?
12:00 pm
Trifioso

he does seem to be doing much better lately, and managed a full dinner last night, so thats good. Yes, from a deer tick bite. It was a CLASSIC bullseye - honestly, the doctor said they could have put a photo in a text book
12:01 pm
crosshair

yes a healty 18 year old boy should be in around 150-160
12:01 pm
crosshair

healthy
12:01 pm
Trifioso

mind you, he has always had a "body by kermit" but it is getting SCARY
12:02 pm

give him supplimental protein shakes with meals
12:02 pm
crosshair

you can get them at pharmacy
12:02 pm
Trifioso

eating isn't the problem....er...."retaining" the meals is
12:03 pm
crosshair

mm:(
12:03 pm
Trifioso

anyway...as I said, he is doing much better this week, especially the last couple of days, so I am hopeful
12:04 pm
Trifioso

and it has been SO FUN getting him ready to go off to his new college adventure. Getting dorm supplies, registering for classes, etc.
12:04 pm
crosshair

scary time for the kids,but once they get first year done it is all good
12:05 pm
Trifioso

yes, I agree. I remember so well the real mix of anticipation and dread fear. And then going back for sophomore year was a breeeeeeze
12:06 pm
Trifioso

crossy, quick canadian question -do you guys have the same Discovery Channel programming up there that we have in the States? i.e., is it "shark week" for you all too?
12:07 pm
crosshair

they can focus on specific targets and that will be perfect for my son when he finishes high school
12:07 pm
crosshair

yes we do trif
12:07 pm

12:07 pm

is shark week a big deal up there? man, it sure is here, much more than I ever would have guessed!

with my friend I think the first marriage was brief, and they were quite young; she also married someone else but they've been together almost 20 years now (the second time)

Sue, I'm guessing that your friend's husband is not a raging alcoholic. That's what I don't get about Taylor marrying Burton twice.
12:33 pm

but wasn't she, also?
12:34 pm
MollyL

It's possible Ruby, although I have never read that about her.

3:47 pm

Demi Moore needs to deal with the fact that she will be 50.
3:48 pm

Never happen Kap. That is why she married the boy toy.

She is clearly subscribing to the '50 is the new 25' theory.
3:48 pm
MollyL

I'm surprised they've lasted this long, actually.
3:49 pm
Soodlebum

Hey Sue!
3:49 pm

Celebrities are narcissistically disturbed.
3:49 pm

Also the theory that 30 goes into 50 better than 50 goes into 30. (Shame on me)

3:53 pm

Kap, we can agree to disagree on that. Gaga is a HUGE narcissist.
3:53 pm
Dorens

how many entertainers are NOT?
3:54 pm
Kaplan the Magne

She knows what she is doing and is in control of her act. Different from being narcissistically empty- as in HAS no "self"
3:54 pm
Soodlebum

Don't know what you mean, Molly. I wear dresses made out of raw meat all the time, and I'm not a narcissist.
3:54 pm

3:56 pm

Kaplan the Magne

Tatum O'Neal on the other hand- thinly held together by rehab talk
3:56 pm
Soodlebum

And what do you make with this wheat?
3:57 pm
Kaplan the Magne

because her dad dumped her for Farro Fawcett.
3:57 pm
Dorens

3:57 pm

No- it's a whole different thing- she does this therapist who does on-line therapy in 3 minute sessions and it is hysterically funny- nothing to do with Friends. It's an online series and also now on showtime.
4:02 pm
Kaplan the Magne

She's aggressive and crazy and really funny. And I did not start this conversation.
4:02 pm
Kaplan the Magne

It is a must for all psychologists-in-training.

she might not survive on it.. this is experimental... three months to see if she can help raise enough money to make a difference, and then they will pay her decently (right now it's 2 K a month, which in nyc is less than rent, right?) but her bf is helping out during the experimental phasse
4:11 pm
