Sorry MLFAN, didn't catch what you meant there because some people will type "to5/7" instead of "to5,7" for example. So it can get a little confusing sometimes.

Haha! Well so far only the one drive-thru, Dee. Which just HAS to be the one 1,000 ft from our apartment building, of course. :P
3:52 am

Oh man, dart... yep. That goes on everywhere.

And hello, rolin.
4:32 am
rolin

hey haz
4:33 am
Haz1558

What are you up to these days?
4:34 am
rolin

oooh ... lots i guess... my mums going into residential care...and feel very far away from everything..im changing jobs in a coupla months...
4:34 am
rolin

(hence being here instead of working..lol)
4:35 am
Haz1558

What job are you going to - I remember you leaving teaching and starting with the charity.
4:36 am
rolin

yup and i love it...but money is becoming a consideration... and i have done the job i was hired to do...so need a new challenge
4:36 am
rolin

im taking on a position as an inclusion manager at a large lovely primary school
4:36 am
Haz1558

That's fair enough. It's good that you've been able to make the change, jobs these days are a problem.
4:37 am
rolin

exactly... i feel very happy with the fact in this ecoomic climate i am still marketable at 56...
4:37 am
Haz1558

Inclusion managers didn't exist when I was at school!
4:38 am
rolin

no when i was at school.. i think there was one non white face in my primary school days...
4:38 am
rolin

and 'slow' kids just fell behind and 'left school early'
4:38 am
Haz1558

Is this a new post or have structures already been put in place?
4:39 am
rolin

there are some structures in place bu not to the nec standards...so i go in and refine and develop what they have so far...
4:40 am
Haz1558

How many different languages represented within the school?
4:40 am
rolin

im yet to find that out... but there are 25 support staff if that any indication...and inclusion also mean disability and gifted and talented...
4:41 am
Haz1558

You've got a wide remit, in that case.
4:41 am
rolin

and looked after children and excluded children
4:42 am
rolin

and thats going to be the pleasure of it... so many things to bring under control...so many diff challenges and kids to work with
4:42 am
Haz1558

The languages problem here comes with pupils from Eastern Europe mostly. The children eventually learn English but their parents don't necessarily follow suit and that's bound to be a problem for teachers trying to communicate with them.
4:43 am
rolin

thats where the kids become the translaters... i can remember years ago in aus..the school took the decision to provide facilities/activities for parents to break down the lang barriers
4:44 am
Haz1558

Yes, husband has had the scenario of the pet being brought in and the child acting as translator for the parent.
4:45 am
Haz1558

The past couple of times in the supermarket, I've encountered a little Spanish family. The mum speaks to the children in Spanish but the children speak to her in English. It's interesting!
4:46 am
Haz1558

You mentioned your mum going into residential care - is that at home in Australia?
4:56 am
rolin

sorry haz...someone came into the office to talk work..!!..outrageous..lol..and yes..mumwill be going into care in aus.....but i better scoot for real now..catch you another time i hope..
4:59 am

See you again - best wishes for the new job!

He talked about his training in the AF and then transition over to astronaut and the missions.

I have done WW in the past. It is a very good plan. I am supposed to be a lifetime member, but was dumb and let it pile back on.
7:43 am

My best advice - don't do what I did. You will get so mad at yourself and it's so hard to do it again!
7:44 am

I am sorry to hear that Trentsnana. Can you go back?

i think this is where i am supposed to say "im not on a diet. i have changed my lifestyle."
or something like that...lol
7:44 am

I am doing Nutrisystem right now. Not cheap, but everything is weighed, measured for you, except for your fruits and veggies. Very handy. I've lost 7 lbs. so far. I have found in menopause it comes off a LOT slower.
7:44 am
trentsnana

But it didn't come on overnight, so I don't mind taking it off slowly.
7:44 am

7:57 am

hurshy, I am curious about that -- I bought some zinc, but can't seem to find atime of day to take it when it isn't counteracted by something else. It cant be taken at the same time as iron, or calcium, or a bunch of other things....

hurshy

ding ding ding!
7:59 am

yes, i think zinc is the main ingredient in Zicam, which is also intended to make colds shorter. never tried it myself -- i like to suffer and force the hubby to wait on me for a few days. ;)
8:00 am

zinc is def main ingred in zicam but that, going in your nose, has apparently resulted in a few people losing their sense of smell!!!

8:01 am

I've heard great things about Mucinex DM
8:01 am

yes, I would stay away from the inhaled zinc - it has definitely caused some problems

What?
9:38 am
hurshy

yeah what, what?
9:39 am
EvaNadine

kind of a choose-your-own-adventure for each month.
9:39 am
EvaNadine

each month, there will be one "set" activity, and from there, there will be decisions about what follows
9:39 am
EvaNadine

for instance, lets go to the movies. do you want to go to a "normal" theater or to the drafthouse? will the snack be popcorn or nachos? afterward, do we get dinner or go shopping?
9:39 am
hurshy

so that's not just for v-day, it's for the whole year
9:39 am
EvaNadine

each possibility will be hidden in an envelope + determined by which one he picks
9:40 am
EvaNadine

exactly, hurshy
it ensures we get a date night each month, its affordable, and its fun. i think i done good. :)
9:42 am

what exacty is a babblet?
11:18 am

a babblet is an unusual word that occurs often in grids
11:18 am
holly16

aha! TY
11:19 am
crosshair

but very rarely in real life:)
11:19 am
MollyL

And pretty much only in grids. Words you never hear in day to day conversation.
11:19 am
Aloyisius

a word you wouldn't normally use in conversation, but you learn to recognize it after you see it a number of times.. unless of course you forget it.. (-:

I have a list of physics babblets in my profile - I started it because people were commenting on weird words that were very familiar to me - now it includes a lot of words that weren't that familiar to me either
11:20 am
crosshair

ag4/6= a old name for a type of marble
11:20 am
uusue2

te5 is one of the familiar ones, though :-)
11:21 am
Aloyisius

the na4.4 I referred to is a pl of an ancient temple
11:21 am
uusue2

yes, I even remember its definition after seeing it in so many grids - can't imagine using it in a sentence, though!
11:22 am
Aloyisius

and the te5 that I missed is a tropical lizard
11:22 am
uusue2

oh, must be a different te5, then
11:22 am
holly16

ok - now it makes sense --- thank you all
11:23 am
MollyL

So Holly, if you're all about discussing ancient temples and tropical lizards, they will be familiar to you. Otherwise they look like gibberish.
11:23 am
Aloyisius

that was te5.12... we also see another te5.12, a "tithe", but not today
11:24 am
Aloyisius

lol, Molly.. Babblers love hairy nosed dolphins, ancient temples and such
11:25 am

and the te5 I was referring to (the physics one) is a te5/10
11:25 am

What is the difference between a fish and a priest, rabbi and minister?"

I agree with Lilliann. It was an overly dramatic era. They didn't have drama to watch on TV, so they lived in their daily lives. And face it, no one would be watching this if it were just about a staid, stoic, boring English family.

6:16 pm
kje

I don't know... I don't think they operate in packs, they are mostly loners.... they were just partying out there for some reason.... or maybe they were trying to chase each other off, not sure. I have seen a couple at a time, but never that many
6:16 pm
lilliann

or maybe mating?
6:17 pm
kje

and they would generally run from humans unless threatened... or wanting a house

6:18 pm
lilliann

it sounds familiar but i can't remember
6:18 pm
lilliann

why do they want your house?

I will have another funeral to attend in the next couple of weeks - that of my ex-hub's uncle who died from Peritonitis caused by an op he had for bowel cancer. The 2nd post mortem (autopsy) found no cancer, just all the abdominal infection caused by the original op. Another death that need not have happened. I'm so sad.

7:05 pm
MollyL

(((Jac))) So sorry to read your sad news.
7:05 pm
Jacula

TO - it seems so. However, more care and hygiene would also help.
7:05 pm

when i had my daughter and was having a bath before they were going to bring her on, the tiles by the bath were that dusty i could write in them
7:06 pm
Jacula

People don't have the immunity they once had because homes are kept too clean.

7:09 pm
Jacula

lili - the old hospital I had my son in was like that - it was an old US Troops hospital in WWII. But I had my baby there in 1984. The nurses were wheeling me back to a ward on a trolley (gurney) down a corridor that sloped very steeply and struggling to make sure it (and I) didn't get away and crash into the wall at the bottom.
7:10 pm
Jacula

There was green stuff on the taps in the operating theatre they took me to because they thought I might have to have a caesarean.
7:11 pm
Jacula

Anyway, let's not have a 'my hospital was worse than your hospital' battle. LOL. Any more clues needed?
7:11 pm
lilliann

when i had morgan our hospital was the same jac, it was an troop hospital aswell and we had a steep slope, not goos walking up and down it when you are pregnant...but still, i had my daughter in 1919 and it should have been clean...whatever year you have your child!!
