tiny grid for a snowy day
3:36 am
rbud

snowy where you are, then? still waiting for some real snow here, no hurry, though, haha! :)
3:36 am
rubyfoo

I thought it was too cold to snow, hah
3:37 am
rubyfoo

it snowed off and on all weekend, but no big accumulation -- just dangerous for driving and walking
3:37 am
rbud

do you have a lot?
3:37 am
rubyfoo

last year we had all our snow in Nov-Dec then balmy weather the rest of the winter
3:37 am
rubyfoo

Go figure!
3:38 am
rbud

well, just got fireworks, happy day! :D
3:38 am

rubyfoo

oh poo! sorry
3:39 am
rbud

thanks! oh, I do hate the light layers of snow that just make it slippery and are not deep enough for traction.
3:40 am
rubyfoo

and, of course, no snow tires on yet!
3:40 am
rbud

of course, I hate most everything about winter, except the cardinals on the snow by my bird feeders, they're lovely.
3:41 am
rubyfoo

no cardinals in France; but we have verdiers (green finches), pinsons, and sparrows naturally. Husband feeds them all twice a day
3:41 am
rbud

and I get a big kick out of the big woodpeckers that assault my suet cages, they're hooked to the side of the window, and it sounds like someone knocking on the door.
3:42 am
rubyfoo

tamper
3:42 am
rubyfoo

I better quit or somebody will yell at me
3:42 am
rbud

Oh, no one here to yell, haha! :)
3:42 am
rubyfoo

clearly, I can't chat and do the grid - no multi-tasking
3:43 am
rubyfoo

I've only seen 3 wqoodpeckers since we've been here and when we tried to put up suet with seeds in nets, the crows carried them away
3:43 am
rubyfoo

2 of the woodpeckers were big and green with red on their heads and the other was regular black, white and red
3:43 am
rubyfoo

in the pines
3:44 am
rbud

I love finches, so dainty. we have the gold ones. Wow, crows - we have some once in a while, but they don't seem interested in the stuff that's too near the house. They like the corn I put out for the deer.
3:45 am
rubyfoo

no deer here either, except in the cliffs above us. One of my friends had all her roses eaten by roe deer during the summer, but I've never seen one
3:45 am
rbud

but - no deer so far this year, we have a dog out there now, they don't care for his company.
3:45 am
rubyfoo

what kind of dog?
3:46 am
rbud

A long-legged border collie mix. He's a good boy, Emmett. Kind of large.
3:47 am
rubyfoo

for a little while in the fall, we had 30 -odd sheep in the field above us, cutting the grass, and I got to see border collies at work. They are wonderful dogs
3:48 am
rbud

I had to bring him into the closed-in porch for part of last winter, (bitter cold for a few weeks) he does okay there, but has no house manners, really.
3:49 am
rbud

He should have a farm and some work to do, he likes to run. I hate having to keep him tied up.
3:49 am
rubyfoo

we have non-working, lazy dogs, but they have massive barks, so are good watch dogs
3:50 am
rubyfoo

and big!
3:50 am
rbud

He jumped out of the kennel easily when we tried him there, so needs the cable tie-out.
3:51 am
rbud

We have a little indoor dog who does all our door-answering barking for us.
3:51 am
rubyfoo

nice name, Emmett!
3:51 am
rubyfoo

uh oh, husband is back with groceries
3:51 am
rubyfoo

nice chatting with you rbud!
3:51 am
rbud

One of the characters from the Twilight movies, I guess, our daughter named him.
3:52 am
rubyfoo

3:52 am

Well, I'm off to bed, anyway, good luck with the grid, and good night! :)

molly! always a delight to find you here! how was your weekend, dear one?
6:42 am

Not bad. Lots of holiday preparations.
6:42 am

are you serving christmas dinner at your house?
6:42 am

Yes, roast beast.

6:46 am
Trifioso

I had a really, really nice experience yesterday - I introduced two young people I had met (college age) and I had this feeling they would really hit it off and they DID and it was a bit of magic watching them realize that they had just met their perfect person. really, really sweet
6:47 am
MollyL

Aw, I love stuff like that. I am such a sucker for romance.
6:47 am
Trifioso

me too....sigh.....
6:48 am
Trifioso

I dont want a clue yet, just want to ask - have you found anything from the a in the right hand column?
6:48 am
MollyL

Yes, one of them.
6:49 am
Trifioso

hmmmm. okay.
6:52 am
Trifioso

"recage" seems like it should be a word. The lion acted up, so we had to recage it
6:53 am
Trifioso

same thing for repage. The doctor didn't call us back, so we asked the office assistant to repage her.
6:56 am
MollyL

I made up several words that start with "co". : )
6:57 am

8:52 am
uusue2

(((molly)))
8:52 am
crosshair

"The stars are made of the same atoms as the earth." I usually pick one small topic like this to give a lecture on. Poets say science takes away from the beauty of the stars -- mere gobs of gas atoms. Nothing is "mere." I too can see the stars on a desert night, and feel them. But do I see less or more? The vastness of the heavens stretches my imagination -- stuck on this carousel my little eye can catch one-million-year-old light. A vast pattern -- of which I am a part -- perhaps my stuff was belched from some forgotten star, as one is belching there. Or see them with the greater eye of Palomar, rushing all apart from some common starting point when they were perhaps all together. What is the pattern, or the meaning, or the *why?* It does not do harm to the mystery to know a little about it. For far more marvelous is the truth than any artists of the past imagined! Why do the poets of the present not speak of it? What men are poets who can speak of Jupiter if he were like a man, but if he is an immense spinning sphere of methane and ammonia must be silent? -- Richard P. Feynman (1918-1988)

7:34 pm
lbdawger

oooh, i know that song all too well, crossy
7:35 pm

That makes it a breeze to remove. A lot of fire removalists / ducted heating installers wont touch that with a ten foot pole if it has asbestos
7:35 pm

aspestos is mostly gone on this end of the pond herin
7:36 pm

Same but it still doesn't stop a lot of older homes having it
7:36 pm

we had a big scare with it in the late 80,s

easy to remove, but the reconstruction of the area is not fiscally wise, right now.
7:37 pm

i know herin,i was renovating a high school and everything came to a grinding halt because there ws asbestos insulating the steam pipes
7:38 pm

that's so true, herin. a lot of homes up here in my neck of the woods still do have aspestos. and my home was built in 1948, so it would have had some...it doesn't any more, thank goodness

i need to learn some sort of skill. something i can get paid to do. i thought of an msw....
9:41 pm
jmcnrick

my personal experience is you find a job and then learn the skill but that may no longer be true in these difficult times
9:43 pm
mab

i started at smith, but had to withdraw when i became ill. it was a grueling program. ridiculously so.
9:49 pm
jmcnrick

jmcnrick

I guess for a msw you need a four year college
9:49 pm
