crosshair

ugh..it is crossy zombie..darn bursitis,,,,ugh....

2:43 am

grannyrose

and no-one left to witness my triumphant fireworks......

2:43 am

crosshair

i am:) yaa for granny!

2:43 am

grannyrose

awww crossy....feel your pain, buddy, truely do

2:45 am

grannyrose

okay, let's analyse this, just what measures have you taken thus far, crossy?

2:46 am

crosshair

well granny,this is new for me.all of a sudden i got radiating pain in a arc under the knee and hot circles of pain on the left and right of the knee cap...

2:46 am

crosshair

i have been given t3,s and told to take ibuprophen for any swelling ,then sent to x-rays....

2:47 am

crosshair

then was told i may need cortosteriod injections into the knee

2:47 am

grannyrose

okay, sounds more like the tendons on both sides of your knee are giving you pain. when you try to straighten your leg, do these tendons feel tender and tight?

2:47 am

crosshair

i have an appointment with the doc on mon

2:48 am

crosshair

no,it is like an icepick stabbing pain and it always feels like the knee is going to buckle ot bend too far the other way

2:49 am

grannyrose

hmmmm, do you have any tynelol in the house?

2:49 am

crosshair

like i said,he gave me t 3,s

2:50 am

grannyrose

and that means????don't forget i'm from down under

2:50 am

crosshair

would not be so bad,if i did not walk for a living

2:50 am

crosshair

ahh tylenol threes with codeine

2:51 am

grannyrose

* nods head* know what you mean....

2:51 am

mrpresident

(((crossy))) !! what happened hunny? I read back.... have you done too much on your legs lately??

2:51 am

grannyrose

okay, cold pack for 5 minutes, then hot pack for 5 minutes, then rest, then repeat cycle

2:51 am

crosshair

most likely 40 extra poun ds and 30 years of running service stations (((MRP)))

2:52 am

crosshair

i will give it a go granny,hurts like a bugger atm

2:52 am

grannyrose

keep it up for 2 cycles, when you go back to bed, try a rolled towel behind your knee

2:53 am

crosshair

i have a nice body pillow i can shove tween knees

2:53 am

mrpresident

could be the medial meniscus?... that can blow out the back of your knee too. and rose is right, heat and ice. and support with a rolled up towel

2:54 am

crosshair

i have a ice pack from the freezer on it,and will be good in a bit after the t 3,s kick in

2:54 am

mrpresident

is tylenol the same as voltarin rose?

2:54 am

grannyrose

no, under the knee, to flex and support at the same time. also would advise you to try and find something like my "pain away. arthritis cream"

2:55 am

grannyrose

no mrp, same as panadol

2:55 am

crosshair

just a pain,was always the invincible,indestructable machine..but no longer alas..maybe whiskey and nookie

2:55 am

mrpresident

ah, so you need anti-inflamatory

2:55 am

crosshair

i havce ibuprophen

2:56 am

mrpresident

well of course crossy! that is the answer to everything!!

2:56 am

mrpresident

you can take ibup with tylenol

2:56 am

grannyrose

"pain away" contains arnica, rosemary oil, sandalwood oil, and emu oil.

2:56 am

crosshair

good,cause there is some t 3,s with my name on em right now

2:57 am

crosshair

mm.emu,s are scarce here granny lol

2:57 am

grannyrose

write the ingredients down, crossy, and see if your local health /natural shop can help you

2:57 am

crosshair

and just how do you milk an emu? lol

2:57 am

grannyrose

not like a duck, that's for sure. do you know how to milk a duck?

2:58 am

crosshair

did not know they had teats!

2:58 am

crosshair

did not know they had teats!

2:58 am

mrpresident

i wanna know what part of the emu they get the oil from!

2:58 am

crosshair

i must visit down under some time! lol

2:58 am

grannyrose

you need a VERY low stool

2:59 am

crosshair

maybe it is from emus that need a shower?

2:59 am

crosshair

a tiny bucket?

2:59 am

dizgrannie

ibuprophen....gawd I wish I could take it, but all I can take for my pain is panadeine forte, cos anything stronger is too much for my system (knocks me around too much)....(have scoliosis and with my age is playing havoc.

2:59 am

grannyrose

i mean it, crossy, or google the name, and see if you can buy it over the internet

3:00 am

mrpresident

like chicken salt... which part of the chicken do they get that from ??

3:02 am

crosshair

i will granny,and crossy can gobble t 3,s like candy

3:04 am

mrpresident

I imagine pygmy Papua Newguinea people using a special wooden spatula to scrape the sweat from under the chicken's wings, after they had chased them for a half hour

3:04 am

crosshair

i will granny,and crossy can gobble t 3,s like candy

3:06 am

grannyrose

i use the "pain away" on my knee...it is pain free( i have grade 4 arthritis, that means absolutely NO cartilage in my right knee) i have thus so far avoided a second arthroscopy and cortisone injections. ( which they don't tell you...softens the bone, thus a total replacement requires that they take more bone)

3:06 am

grannyrose

crossy, i am buying "anatrin" from the us of a...it's a natural remedy for my fibromyalgia...you never know, you might get lucky

7:52 am

jmcnrick

you should boil them first

7:52 am

jmcnrick

hi all

7:52 am

i grew up in a family that rarely ate them, so cooking with them is always foreign to me

7:53 am

Can that happen?

Can anyone clue the ha6/33 please

11:01 am

crosshair

During a 1992 state dinner, President George H. W. Bush, ill with the flu, lost his lunch in the lap of the Japanese prime minister. Oddly enough, Bush’s faux pas coined a slang Japanese word, bushusuru, which translates as “to do the Bush thing,” meaning “to vomit.”

11:02 am

For anyone old enough to remember Spiro Agnew, one of his famous insults was calling the media "nattering na/5's of negativism"

Kaplan the Magne

well, rock lives on and Spiro didn't!

11:04 am

Oops, it's close. If you're old enough to remember, you're old enough for a senior moment on it. It can a different middle letter.

11:24 am

Lame guess. ch6/27 is too ordinary for a dog's name in your family Stid. : )

11:25 am

stidmama

which gives me NBT and past halfway. Time to get to work before the kiddo wakes up and needs my computer for his homework.... *sigh* He has his own computer, but it's not as fast or as fun to use apparently.

no, I see it a lot in CA when we go to the produce market. In CT they're not so good

2:19 pm

ugh, have fun stid. glad it's you and not me. i hate car shopping

2:23 pm

cybernan

hi stid

2:24 pm

MollyL

I love the fact that you can research everything on line before you go buy a car. Last time I bought one it was a cake walk.

2:24 pm

stidmama

Tom and Matthew (the babbler formerly known as stidkid # 1) are about to head out to finish transferring boxes from the smaller (original) storage locker to the new (larger) locker... we are discovering that a lot of the bulk are actually empty boxes!!! Which improves our potential to downsize again next summer.

2:24 pm

lbdawger

when i bought my jeep, the sales guy kept talking to hubz. I walked off the car lot. Hubz said, "you better go make up to my wife or you will have lost a sale. it's HER money."

2:25 pm

stidmama

I have been doing that, Molly -- but on a budget of $0 and not likely to be able to qualify for a loan... *sigh* quite discouraging.

2:25 pm

lbdawger

lol at storing empty boxes stiddy

2:25 pm

stidmama

I did that with my first car, LBD! Stupid salesmen who think women don't know their cars. For that matter, stupid technicians at times (though I regularly call our local shop in a panic... LOL)

2:26 pm

jesdraggon

last time i went car shopping, a friend drove me around, so if i bought something i could get it home. i'd ask questions, and he'd wander around not really paying attention. at one lot, the salesman INSISTED on answering every question I asked directed at my friend, even though he'd not said a word, and was on the other side of a different car.

2:26 pm

stidmama

Tom likes to keep the empties for new purchases just in case we want to return things.

2:26 pm

stidmama

It's a little ridiculous after 12 years in our house...

2:26 pm

jesdraggon

after about 3 questions of that, I said "nevermind. I'm not buying a car from a bloke who can't force himself to talk to me, no matter how good your cars are," and we left.

2:27 pm

lbdawger

Hubz does that too, Stid. i have to remind him that after 30 days we can't take stuff back.

2:27 pm

doseffing

... save the boxes until the spring and then sell them to students from the local university who are moving home

2:27 pm

stidmama

good for you, too, jes!

2:27 pm

stidmama

Good idea, dose!

2:27 pm

lbdawger

it's so infuriating, Jes. I did buy my jeep for that dealer, just not from that salesman.

2:27 pm

MollyL

Wow, zero dollars and not qualifying for financing doesn't give you um, any options?

2:28 pm

doseffing

... not fair ... I've got a frosh and a grad who are still in annual moving mode

2:28 pm

jesdraggon

used car, molly. that's about the only option for a lot of folks.

2:28 pm

jesdraggon

new cars are WAY freaking spendy

2:28 pm

stidmama

I am hoping late next summer to be able to sell the useable but only "first place" appropriate extra furniture to the kids who are returning to school.

2:28 pm

stidmama

Yep. Used car.

2:29 pm

lbdawger

nothing wrong with a good previously owned vehicle. ask for the carfax tho!

2:29 pm

doseffing

... hate to be morbid ... but suggest looking for an elderly couple who are finally getting rid of their car ... ... was just offered an excellent deal that way

2:29 pm

MollyL

Sorry, I guess I misunderstood zero dollars.

2:29 pm

stidmama

I will have to borrow from parentals, Molly -- which at my age is somewhat embarrassing. But the van is not safe, and I must have some transportation to get to the sub jobs I am offered.

2:29 pm

stidmama

And until I am getting regular, dependable jobs, I literally have NO money.

2:30 pm

lbdawger

i have an 89 jeep, almost mint condition 40,000 miles on it...wanna buy it?

2:30 pm

stidmama

gee whiz, LBD! I would LOVE to -- EXCEPT going over the Rockies this time of year is NOT my cup of tay!

2:31 pm

stidmama

I want 4WD, though -- since there is a gully between our home and the closest plowed road.

2:31 pm

lbdawger

well darn. it's my dad's jeep. it really is in great condition. brand new tires, new battery, leather upholstery

2:32 pm

stidmama

*drooling over the cool factor of a jeep...* with the rural schools I teach in, that would enhance my status as a sub in no time flat! LOL

2:32 pm

jesdraggon

my cousin might. can you deliver to spokane?

2:32 pm

lbdawger

it's sitting in Denver.

2:33 pm

stidmama

hm. My BIL lives in Aspen....

2:33 pm

doseffing

... fly me out there ... I'll drive it ... loved that drive

2:33 pm

stidmama

but it would take a while to get down there. *sigh* too many decisions, I can feel the neurons shutting down.

2:33 pm

lbdawger

i just did that drive...i'm too old to do it again in the winter.

2:33 pm

stidmama

babbler's auto delivery service, dose?

2:34 pm

doseffing

... as I said ... just need the airfare to Denver ...

2:34 pm

lbdawger

i probably should ask my sister if it's still for sale...i haven't heard anyting so i'm assuming it and the house are still on the market

2:36 pm

lbdawger

fares from canada are probably less expensive than what we pay here. but then i live in podunk nowhere and there are no direct flights to anywhere from here.

2:37 pm

stidmama

so, does anyone have opinions on the Honda CR-V? there are a few used ones that might work...

2:38 pm

lbdawger

they are nice cars, stid. very roomy and handle well on the roads

2:38 pm

doseffing

... not quite ... Air Canada is noted for high prices ... ... a lot of people from the Toronto area drive down to Buffalo to fly anywhere in the States

2:38 pm

stidmama

it's the winter driving that I am thinking about -- and being big enough to carry Lucky without having him in my lap! LOL the van was SO nice for that...

2:38 pm

MollyL

Stid, you can look up auto reviews on line. Hondas are good cars, although you may be told differently by "some" here.

2:39 pm

stidmama

I think that's what we are going to look at -- I have liked my Honda, and so has Mother. Tom's Hyundai has served us well, but it's a little small for hauling four people long distances.

2:40 pm

MollyL

Why does the dog need to ride with you?

2:40 pm

lbdawger

My sister in Colorado has one, and she has to drive in nasty snowy weather. She loads up her two Little dogs, and heads off to where ever. lots of room for Lucky

2:40 pm

stidmama

I don't like any U.S.-made models that are in my low-end price range, and their mileage tends to be very poor anyway. I don't want to get less than 25 mpg

2:40 pm

stidmama

LBD, that's the encouragement I needed. Thanks.

2:41 pm

stidmama

We are in a rural area, Molly -- must be able to get Lucky the many miles to the vet, and the occasional long drive when we take trips.

2:41 pm

lbdawger

it has a nice roomy "trunk" for all the hauling you'd have to do too, stid.

2:41 pm

stidmama

And since stidkid #2 is now a full 6 feet tall... *sigh* I keep telling him to stop growing, but you can't tell adolescents what to do! rofl...

2:42 pm

stidmama

LBD, I think my mind is made up. Now to justify the price. And find one that seems reasonable.

2:42 pm

MollyL

Oh, okay. I get it now. Earlier you were talking about your commute to work and I thought, for some reason, you took him to work with you.

2:42 pm

I st4/4ted the grid an 4/8 at the flip.I'm almost done so here is a story of clues for you to sc 4/5. Husband proposed to me while we were on a ca4/7ing trip. He took out a black ca4/5 that was in his co4/5 pocket. I opened it and saw a 10-ca 5/12 ring which probably cost several co 5/12. Husband told me he was taking a big ch 6/27 asking me because he wasn't sure what my reply would be.I said of course I would marry him, what else would the answer be? Hubby said he wasn't sure because he had to ch 5/14 me for years just to get me to date him so he wasn't sure about marriage After putting the ring on my finger he did a happy da 5/14. Hubby wants to ch 4/6 w/people on FaceBook. He drives me insa4/4 with his FaceBook addiction.FB has become the ba4/6 of my existence. I am going to sc5/12 on out of here to eat ta4/5s for dinner. Then I'm going to take a ba 4/7. Then I am going to watch the movie Ch7/40 Are. I will da4/5 back here later on

Hi Jess.

Molly - Yes, I have very eclectic taste. I love all the old music because of the huge record collection my parents had, and going to films and to parties with them.

7:56 pm

MollyL

I understand that Jac. I am ever thankful to my folks for turning me onto swing music.

7:57 pm

That could be in Life Magazine. It really captures the mood of the setting.

8:04 pm

Soodle

I can only see the pic in the chat log, Jac. when I go into your profile, I can still see the friendly wet dog!

8:31 pm

Soodle

<-------- Having a Tiny Tim moment.... God bless us, one and all.

8:31 pm

Jacula

Tiptoe through the tulips...

8:31 pm

Jacula

Oh, NOT that Tiny Tim,. LOL.

8:32 pm

lil*monkey

I think one of my New Year's resolutions will be to meet at least 5 Babblers in person (5 whom I have never met before)

8:32 pm

Soodle

Erm... it was more of a Dickens tiny tim...........

8:32 pm

Jacula

I got that, Soodle.

8:32 pm

Soodle

Pick me, Lil Monkey, pick me, pick me....

8:33 pm

Soodle

Sorry Jac... Its not a time warp its a bloomin time lag.......

8:33 pm

lil*monkey

I have already met (in person): littlebit, dcseain, ciocia Judy, dan2bit, Krista, kje, Temple Owl, nrkii

8:33 pm

Jacula

I can't pick anyone who doesn't live in UK as we still don't have jobs here, though Beloved has 2 days work next week, possibly leading to a month's worth of work up to Christmas.

8:34 pm

MollyL

Well Lil, aren't you the most popular Lil Babbler. : )

8:34 pm

lil*monkey

I'd love to come to the UK and meet lilliann, Jacula, Lindrickway, Soodle

8:34 pm

Jacula

Lil* - I've seen the Babbler's meet pics. It's great.

8:34 pm

lil*monkey

Molly you are going to be one of my five, I just know it

8:34 pm

MollyL

Where is Lilliann these days?

8:34 pm

Soodle

Where in the UK are you Jac? My son is living in Hastings and working in Woking.

8:35 pm

lil*monkey

She is on FB but doesn't Babble much anymore... if you want her FB name, I'll send it to you on FB Molly

8:35 pm

Jacula

Lilliann is still around, but I can't remember if I was talking to her on here the other day or on FB. I think it was on FB.

8:35 pm

MollyL

Lil, just tell her I said hi and I miss her. Glad she's doing okay.

8:35 pm

lil*monkey

I call her Cheeky

8:35 pm

Jacula

Soodle, I'm in Worcestershire which is quite a way up from there.

8:35 pm

lil*monkey

Yes I will do that Molly

8:36 pm

Soodle

Love your sauce, Jac!!!!

8:36 pm

lil*monkey

I used to live in Gerrard's Cross, Bucks county, if any of you Brits know where that is

8:36 pm

MollyL

*Chuckles at "working in Woking" *

8:36 pm

LeslieAnn

dammit soodle beat me to it

8:36 pm

Jacula

Lil* - yes, I do. 'Working in Woking' isn't the expression I usually hear for that town in Surrey. LOL

8:37 pm

Soodle

Tee hee Molls......... never thought of that!

8:37 pm

MollyL

*Gasp* Wonking in Woking? Poking in Woking?

8:38 pm

Jacula

Gerrard's Cross always used to make me laugh as a child when we passed the sign. I wondered what he was cross about. Still haven't grown up enough not to wonder that about any sign with whatever's Cross.

8:38 pm

Jacula

Molly - take your first guess but change the 1st vowel to an 'a'. LOL

8:38 pm

lil*monkey

Doesn't it just mean a cross street, like an intersection?

8:39 pm

MollyL

I never get Brit speak right.

8:39 pm

lil*monkey

wanking!

8:39 pm

Jacula

Lil* . No, it usually means some kind of holy site.

8:40 pm

Jacula

Lil*! That word is not one we use in polite conversation here in UK! *shocked*

8:40 pm

lil*monkey

Jac, what is Gerrard's Cross close to? I was just a girl then. I can't remember where it was exactly. I went to school on a US Air Force base called High Wycombe.

8:40 pm

Soodle

I used to date a chap who lived in High Wycombe. High times in High Wycombe.... Le sigh.......

8:40 pm

LeslieAnn

oh i must only know impolite brits then

8:40 pm

Jacula

I nearly typed 'some kind of holy sHite'. Oh dear!

8:40 pm

Soodle

Rofl LeslieAnn

8:40 pm

lil*monkey

Bloody wanker! lol

8:41 pm

lil*monkey

lol I've never been to a HOly Shite

8:41 pm

lil*monkey

well except for Stonehenge

8:41 pm

Jacula

LA - so you DO know what the term means? When I first went on the internet, many moons ago, a lot of our friends over The Pond, seemed to have no idea what that word was.

8:41 pm

Soodle

Hmmm... never been to ireland then, Lil!!

8:41 pm

MollyL

<---Is not well versed in polite conversation

8:42 pm

lil*monkey

wanker? yes I know, I lived in UK for a while

8:42 pm

Soodle

Atta girl, Molls ROFL

8:42 pm

Jacula

Lil* - could you still touch the stones at Stonehenge when you went there? You're not allowed to these days!

8:43 pm

lil*monkey

No, we could not touch the stones when I was there

8:43 pm

MollyL

I have no desire to see Stonehenge anymore, now that it's all roped off. What's the point?

8:44 pm

Jacula

Lil* The village name is fairly new, when compared with other villages that surround it. Gerrards Cross did not exist in any formal sense until 1859 when it was formed by taking pieces out of the five parishes of Chalfont St Peter, Fulmer, Iver, Langley Marish and Upton to form a new ecclesiastical parish. It is named after the Gerrard family who in the early 17th century owned a manor here. At that time it was a hamlet in the parish of Chalfont St Peter. It is the site of an Iron Age hillfort.

8:45 pm

Jacula

Molly - don't blame you! Thank God and Gaia that I'm old enough to have been there when you could still touch the stones, and THAT is an experience, believe me!

8:45 pm

lil*monkey

Jac, where is it relative to London

8:46 pm

MollyL

Thank you Jacepedia. : P

8:46 pm

LeslieAnn

*TM

8:46 pm

Soodle

Or Jacgoogle......

8:46 pm

Jacula

Molly - y/w. LOL

8:47 pm

Jacula

Lil* - it's on the border of Greater London, which is probably a lot bigger than the London you recall. Check Google maps to be sure.

8:48 pm

lil*monkey

What train stop is it?

8:48 pm

lil*monkey

We used to ride an above-ground train and then switch to the tube

8:48 pm

Soodle

Would you look at the time. The son and heir is home from the working in Woking this weekend, and will be demanding a full Irish breakfast in approx 5 hours time. I better hit the sack.

8:49 pm

Jacula

Gotta think on your feet here and google and hope for the best. I don't do that in my blog, but you can tell if I've done it here, 'cos it's not typed in my style. LOL

8:49 pm

Jacula

'Lil* - I have NO IDEA what train stop it is. I live nearer Birmingham than London.

8:50 pm

lil*monkey

OK... I could ask my parents but they barely remember their own names anymore LOL

8:51 pm

8:51 pm

Jacula

And the way they keep changing the location of the bus stops in Birmingham, I'd guess, since I can't keep up with those, I'm long lost on London, where I haven't been for at least 12 years.

8:56 pm

lil*monkey

8:56 pm

LeslieAnn

ca7/32 is a card game

8:57 pm

lil*monkey

thank u jess!

8:57 pm

jesdraggon

welcome

8:59 pm

Jacula

co7/36 = to appear in a play together.

8:59 pm

Jacula

co + battle *****ment.

9:00 pm

Jacula

The battle thing is about acting out battles from the past.

9:00 pm

jesdraggon

thanks

9:00 pm

Jacula

y.w Jes..

9:00 pm

hi again...it's me...any clue for ne6/21, please

9:01 pm

lil*monkey

Oh I see, but "poot" is not a word

9:01 pm

jesdraggon

ne6/21 is what bees get from flowers

9:02 pm

Jacula

ne6/21 is what bees collect to make honey - not pollen.

9:02 pm

aebmusica

tyvm, jacula

9:02 pm

Jacula

ambrosia is ne6/21 for the Gods.

9:02 pm

Jacula

9:03 pm

jesdraggon

and I'm sure this one's fishy but I can't seem to monkey it. ha5,14? the very first one

9:04 pm

LeslieAnn

haven't listed yet but my first rhymes with take a ch**** on me

9:04 pm

Jacula

'Lil* - poot is in the Scrabble dictionary, meaning 'break wind'. We call it a fart or a trump.

9:05 pm

lil*monkey

but never an accepted word in Babble *hmpf*

9:06 pm

Jacula

jes - think Shakespeare - 'thou ha5/14 not the means to let your poor old mother know thou wouldst not be home by the prick of midnight?'

9:07 pm

Jacula

Did thou not have thy phone of the cell, the one worked by hags of the night, with thee?

9:07 pm

Jacula

'Lil* - that's enough! Stop sulking!

9:08 pm

lil*monkey

Last time I checked, you weren't my mum

9:09 pm

LeslieAnn

maybe you should check again

9:09 pm

jesdraggon

thanks, and fireworks

9:09 pm

LeslieAnn

yay jes!

9:10 pm

Jacula

'Lil*' - teenaged sulks. LOL

9:10 pm

Jacula

Well done, jess.

9:13 pm

Jacula

Joling with Lil* aside, it is confusing when you play lots of word games on the net, because the dictionaries differ. You think you've got a brilliant million point word using z and q and the damned dictionary doesn't allow it on that particular game. GRR!

9:13 pm

Jacula

JoKing, I meant to type.

9:14 pm

Jacula

Please, pretty please, for the millionth time of asking Dr_God, can we have an edit button on here, please?

9:16 pm

Jacula

Ren's been posting like mad on FB, She doesn't come in here now.

9:16 pm

73 left here, won't finish, but enjoying the game nonetheless

10:16 pm

stidmama

and as for subbing -- until I have a new(er) car, I am unavailable. The van is unsafe to drive because the steering rack is about to fail (no way to tell when it actually will, so.....)

10:16 pm

Dorens

that's the spirit, stid

10:16 pm

Dorens

oh no, tht is sad. i'm sorry... hope it gts fixed or replaced soon

10:17 pm

stidmama

I think I have found the right replacement, a 2007 Honda CR-V. Will see on Monday when our auto shop gurus check it out for me

10:17 pm

LeslieAnn

brain died, last two are sa 6/21 and one of the last batch of sc 5/12s

10:17 pm

stidmama

can't afford to keep fixing the d__n thing, it's cost half its current value in repairs over the last couple years.

10:18 pm

stidmama

LA: sa 6/21 is latin for "holy" (it's a plural form, sing ens with -um)

10:19 pm

LeslieAnn

ah thanks

10:19 pm

stidmama

and try doubling the last consonant on the sc that chases away critters

10:19 pm

stidmama

how are you doren? weather behaving for a change, I hope?

10:20 pm

LeslieAnn

that would be it, psychic mama. fireworks!

10:20 pm

just finished the grid. weather has been lovely stid, but a litte scary. think it hit 70 today

10:20 pm

YAY LA!!!!

10:20 pm

stidmama

YAY doren too!!!

10:21 pm

Dorens

can't really complain.. it was really nice here... but kind of concerned about the strange fluctuations.... and yay for leslie ann!

10:22 pm

stidmama

how are the prince and princess doing, doren? Haven't seen pics of them in a while

10:24 pm

Dorens

will have to work on posting one tomorow stid.. they are totally adorable. am taking Phoebe next weekend to see the nutcracker... and Levi, two and funny as can be, keeps saying "when I'm three I'm going to the nutcracker" and of course he has no idea what it is, but he is determined to join us next year. they are thoroughly enjoyable, stid. i highly recommend grandchildren

10:26 pm

Dorens

and with that i say good night. catch you later

10:26 pm

stidmama

LOL I am so pleased you are enjoying them! I actually asked about car seat tie-downs today, just in case I need them before the next car is done... NOT that I am anticipating grands in the next decade!

10:26 pm

stidmama

Sweet dreams doren.

10:27 pm

stidmama
