Ruby - yes the cyclone just caused very heavy rain for us last Sunday and some of Monday and has since settled
4:11 am
rubyfoo

did you have any flooding?
4:11 am
rubyfoo

damage?
4:12 am
ursh

Still no word of Max - and no serious damage here but quite a bit further north
4:13 am
rubyfoo

no word of Max, I am sure he went off into the shrubbery somepace and died but, happily, the new chow puppy is being delivered from Italy tomorrow morning. His name is Ruffino (Rufie) and I am hoping that he can cheer up my horribly depressed husband
4:14 am
rubyfoo

it is all very sad, but I have to keep things together and running
4:15 am
ursh

I can imagine a black chow puppy would cheer up even the lowest of spirits - have fun
4:15 am
rubyfoo

the new boy is still beige and curly, but I am sure he will darken up as his puppy fur grows out and his face is very black. He's gorgeous
4:16 am
rubyfoo

I wouldn't get another black chow as neither of our two has been normal
4:16 am
ursh

My sister had a beautiful rottweiler call Rufie (Rufous) and he was a sweetie
4:17 am
rubyfoo

we had a wonderful male named Rufus who lived to be 10, so Ruffino is named partly for him (and partly because he's Italian)
4:18 am
rubyfoo

I have several friends who love Rottweilers. I've only known one, he was a sweetie who thought I was HIS sweetie and, since he was a lot bigger than I, u hoh is all I can say
4:21 am
ursh

Husband's birthday tomorrow - have enormous leg of lamb in oven for a lunch with kids later today
4:22 am
rubyfoo

nice. Is the lamb halal? We buy halal lamb here and find it much better than what we got in the US
4:22 am
rubyfoo

I'm making duck for the Italians who are bringing the dog
4:23 am
ursh

Yes large Indian community in Durban so all meat is halal or is it halaal
4:23 am
rubyfoo

don't know the spelling, but the lamb is wonderful
4:26 am
rubyfoo

what are you serving with it?
4:26 am
Haz1558

Time to go, enjoy the grid!

4:31 am
rbud

I'm drooling, but I can't eat, had a tooth pulled... all I can do is dream of good food for now, so this works for me, lol!
4:31 am
rubyfoo

{{rbud}}
4:31 am
ursh

We are lucky in that our 2 daughters live nearby and son still at home (but away in Joburg this weekend) so we are sharing the cooking - I am doing meat and gravy and one daughter doing potatoes and veg and other daughter doing desert and eating at daughter's hoouse which is just up the road
4:32 am
ursh

ouch rosebud
4:32 am
rubyfoo

how nice for you to have family nearby!
4:32 am
rubyfoo

you, Annie and my DIL all had teeth pulled this week. What's going on?
4:32 am
ursh

so many friends have kids living overseas - so we are truly lucky
4:33 am
rubyfoo

it takes 23 hours to reach my son in Austin
4:33 am
rbud

debating whether to go ahead and get the last three out, give up on my partial, and go full bottom denture. didn't want to, I hear they are harder to keep in. but I'll see what the dentist thinks this week.
4:34 am
rubyfoo

hard decision, rbud!
4:34 am
ursh

a friend of my husband is going to join us - his wife died a year ago - one daughter lives in UK one daughter lives in Australia and his son in Switzerland
4:34 am
rubyfoo

that is nice, including your friend
4:34 am
rbud

I would like to be done with toothaches, heehee!
4:35 am
rbud

gosh, our two kids still live in our house, if only they'd move out, would be a thrill!
4:35 am
rubyfoo

send them over here, I could use the company!
4:36 am
rbud

ages 20 and 24, and we're too soft hearted to just kick 'em out, though I've often wanted to.
4:36 am
rubyfoo

I hope that they help you and do some cooking, etc.
4:36 am
bekki

I have had alot of dentists make me a lower plate and never could wear them. I am 67 and started wearing dentures at 18 I can eat any thing
4:37 am
rubyfoo

when my son visits, once or twice a year, he is a whirlwind of help (unfortunately, criticism, too)
4:37 am
rbud

Ha! very little.
4:38 am
rbud

really, bekki? you eat without the bottom ones, are you saying? I had a friend who had no teeth for years, the man could eat steak, corn on the cob... don't know how he did it. He finally has some now, looks much better.
4:39 am
rbud

I'm going nuts with nothing but liquids, soup, mashed potatoes... can't wait till I can chew again!
4:39 am
rubyfoo

that's amazing! I am really compulsive about my teeth. Constantly brushing, flossing, etc
4:39 am
bekki

I can eat both and walnuts
4:39 am
rbud

wow!
4:39 am
rubyfoo

you are amazing, bekki!
4:40 am
ursh

son still at home is 25 and finished university 18 months ago - went to work in Miami for 6 months then back and tried personal training but found it boring so now has just started a new job as a medical rep and hopefully will go "solo" as he calls it by the end of this year - yay - but I will miss him terribly - he makes me laugh often which I love
4:40 am
rubyfoo

did he like Miami? I imagine he found the climate similar to Durban
4:40 am
bekki

alot of people don't know I have no lower teeth
4:41 am
rubyfoo

until you bite them, lol
4:41 am
rbud

haha! I have had mine out for days, no one seems to notice much. Guess I only smile with the top ones.
4:41 am
bekki

I don't bite I punch
4:42 am
rubyfoo

uh oh.....
4:42 am
ursh

yes ruby he like Miami - but was waitering at a country club and found the clientele rich and spoilt
4:42 am
rubyfoo

I loved Miami and still miss the ocean but not the climate
4:43 am
rbud

we lived in Florida for a couple of years, I didn't like it much. No dirt, all sand. :P
4:43 am
rubyfoo

we had a Cuban friend there, who, when he was young, tended bar at a country club and used to "tamper" with people's drinks.....
4:43 am
rbud

"tamper" dare we ask? :\
4:43 am
rubyfoo

I like the seasons here and the dramatic difference in day lengths
4:44 am
ursh

i think my son would have sometimes liked to "tamper" with their food
4:44 am
rubyfoo

you'd rather not know, but he found the clientele spoiled and condescending, too
4:45 am
rbud

ewwww, but can't say I haven't had a similar thought or two in my various food service and cocktail waitress jobs.
4:45 am
rbud

mostly all jobs on my list of ones never to do again.
4:45 am
rubyfoo

half and nbs but no bottom o and Miss Ruby and husband both need me. Trying to cheer husband up....will make him his Campari and try to smile
4:46 am
rbud

(((ruby)))
4:46 am
ursh

i think most waiters/kitchen workers could tell alwful stories about what goes on
4:46 am
rubyfoo

{{rbus}} no biting!
4:46 am
rbud

I can't, darnit! ;p
4:46 am
rubyfoo

I think you're right, ursh, like food on the floor and back on the plates and much worse, I'm sure
4:47 am
rubyfoo

*poof*
4:47 am
rbud

oh, for sure, I quit a job once because the owner wanted us to scrape some spilled hot dogs off the floor under the stoves, rinse them off, and serve them.
4:48 am
rbud

it was nasty down there!
4:49 am
ursh

lol rbud - i heard story about bleeding into the fruit salad - thank heavens was in the 70's and aids was not such an issue
4:49 am
rbud

I was young, carefree, and knew I could get another job in a snap. not so easy these days, but I still wouldn't serve those dogs to anyone!
4:50 am
rbud

I also quit a job as a cocktail waitress, hated the jerks with the grabby hands. now those guys deserved some "tampering"
4:51 am
ursh

yuck rbud - the more they drink the grabbier they get
4:51 am
rbud

and the other girls said "but you get better tips if you let 'em!" well, forget that!
4:53 am
rbud

I've never liked drunks or bars, maybe that's partly why
4:54 am
ursh

snap on the drunks rbud
4:57 am
rbud

when I drove the taxi here for five years, I hired the former owner to work friday and saturday nights, he got along with drinkers, I had no patience with them. I liked the old babes and fellows in the daytime, he didn't. worked out well.
4:59 am
ursh

yes i suppose taxi drivers really see it all
4:59 am
rbud

love the independent older ladies, and they liked me. dependable, clean car, slow driver, helped with groceries... hope I can find help like me when I get to where I need it. :)
5:00 am
rbud

guess the former owner scared the ladies, took them a while to relax when I took over. he was sort of an aggressive driver.
5:03 am
rbud

the other taxi owners in nearby towns told me I was nuts to be open at all at night, none of them were. wonder how the barflies got home in those towns, hate to think.
5:05 am

9:02 am

AAAHHHH. This is my on-call weekend and I just finished a call with a mother who wanted to discuss head lice. Yep, a Sunday morning emergency.
9:12 am
rubyfoo

do they still use Kwell?
9:12 am
NonoNanette

Good morning Scrabs
9:12 am
MollyL

Scrabbs, you must have a lot of patience to deal with these parents who think every little thing is an emergency.
9:12 am
cybernan

hi ruby and scrabs
9:13 am
NonoNanette

Ruby have you heard anything on Max?
9:13 am
Scrabbler

Simplest, safest treatment is non-drug one--Cetaphil gentle cleanser on to hair at night, blow dry, rinse in morning, repeat 1 wk and 2 wks later.
9:13 am
rubyfoo

pictures molly talking "sense" to that mother on the phone!
9:14 am
cybernan

or give the kid a perm - kills the lice and burns the nits
9:14 am
rubyfoo

no, I'm afraid Max is in dog heaven. Husband and I just had ANOTHER good cry over his loss.
9:14 am
rubyfoo

But tomorrow Ruffino arrives and perhaps we'll be able to smile again
9:14 am
Scrabbler

Yes, Molly, I wanted to say, "Now this is not an emergency and this type of question is most appropriate for when the office is open. But I would have felt mean.
9:14 am
MollyL

*Still keeping the faith about Max*
9:14 am
NonoNanette

soooo very sorry (((ruby))))
9:14 am
rubyfoo

mean is sometimes good, scrabbler!

{{molly}}
9:15 am

ahhh good. Am glad you are getting a new pup
9:15 am
Scrabbler

Oh, no, Ruby. I am so sad for Max and you.
9:15 am
welki

could of just said, ' You know, I don't usually tell people to BE nitpickers, but in this case...'
9:15 am
rubyfoo

it has really been terrible and I appreciate, enormously, all the support I've had in he**
9:16 am
rubyfoo

husband and I were talking about just that; he has no support group, just has to handle his sadness alone
9:16 am
NonoNanette

Ruby we have all suffered the lose of a pet and know the sorrow it brings
9:16 am
Scrabbler

Haha, Welki.
9:16 am
welki

it's the best i could come up with this early :)
9:16 am
rubyfoo

I've known people who say "never again" after losing an animal, but we can't imagine life without dogs
9:17 am
rubyfoo

that's why we will always have two
9:17 am
NonoNanette

but even the ones who say never again end up with another pet before long
9:18 am
rubyfoo

and poor Ruby keeps looking for Max, too, and isn't eating much
9:18 am
Scrabbler

I know people who say never again.
9:18 am
rubyfoo

I wonder, no no, how anybody could harden his heart sufficiently not to get another
9:19 am
NonoNanette

When I put my beloved Majic down when he suffered with cancer several years ago I told myself I need to wait a bit before getting another but I found myself looking at the adds in the paper and adopted an older cat within weeks
9:19 am
welki

oh i don't think it's about hardening the heart, more about being terrified of it breaking again
9:19 am
Scrabbler

It is selfish to fear grief and deprive an animal of a wonderful life.
9:20 am
rubyfoo

it's hard to say, welki, somehow our hearts heal and although we always miss the "lost" ones, we can love new animals, too
9:20 am
Scrabbler

So true.
9:21 am
rubyfoo

and seeing my husband inconsolable is, itself, heartbreaking
9:21 am
NonoNanette

When we went to see this new cat, the people had a 7 year old daughter who had grown up with the cat and had suddenly developed allergies. I felt sorry for the child having to give up her pet until she told me, "oh by the way she likes to sleep in her litter pan"
9:22 am
NonoNanette

then i knew this cat needed to be rescued
9:22 am
rubyfoo

hahah, no no, when it was clean, I hope
9:22 am
NonoNanette

it wasn
9:22 am
MollyL

I don't think it's having a hard heart. I think some people realize that they can't go through that kind of loss again.
9:22 am
NonoNanette

it wasn't very clean when we were there
9:23 am
NonoNanette

and she never slept in it after we took her home
9:23 am
rubyfoo

as we go on, the losses just pile up
9:23 am
Scrabbler

Yay for rescuing that cat!
9:23 am
rubyfoo

but maybe our hearts get bigger
9:23 am
MollyL

Don't you just train a cat not to sleep in it's litter box?
9:23 am
NonoNanette

she was the most adorable tiny thing Scrabs but had a terrible temper LOL
9:24 am
rubyfoo

that's a funny idea, a cat with a temper
9:24 am
NonoNanette

Molly I have never known a cat to sleep in the litter box
9:24 am
NonoNanette

oh Ruby she would hiss at everyone
9:24 am
rubyfoo

they are always so clean
9:25 am
NonoNanette

I never really trusted her around children
9:25 am
rubyfoo

too funny, especially since she was small
9:25 am
MollyL

It does seem weird Nono. But some people just let their animals do whatever they want.

12:56 pm
Scrabbler

Back--chatting with kje on FB. Doren, the codeine can make you dizzy and sleepy.
12:56 pm
MollyL

It's won all these awards and I haven't figured out why yet.
12:57 pm
Dorens

yes i know scrabs, but how long would the residualbe? didn't take any past friday nite and was dizzy all day yesterday. can augmentin have that effect?
12:57 pm
rururocks

oh.. that's a great story line molly
12:57 pm
rururocks

the cold can make you dizzy too doren
12:58 pm
MollyL

That's what I thought Ru and had no intention of watching it. But my oldest (The Dark Lord) gave me three seasons of it for Christmas.
12:58 pm
Dorens

have heard about the show, but somehow managed to resist the urge to watch (honestly, never had the urge)
12:58 pm
rururocks

well.. isn't that nice
12:58 pm

Augmentin won't make you dizzy. It can blow out your intestines though.
12:59 pm

What a charming side effect.
12:59 pm
rururocks

*puts up shields for intestinal blow-out*
12:59 pm

ah, the cold is pretty much all dried up now... but still headachy and dizzy. oh really scrabbs? Maybe he gave it to me to counteract the effects of the codeine???
12:59 pm

(by the way, been on augmentin since friday, no blow outs)
1:00 pm
rururocks

*puts shields down*
1:01 pm
Dorens

and my son the doctor has whisked his family off for a week in the italian alps. i don't understand what is wrong with him
1:01 pm
Scrabbler

Augmentin is an antibiotic--for bacterial sinusitis.
1:03 pm
Dorens

and it may or may not be helping... the doc was unsure about the need for it, but said if i wasn't feeling better by the end of the week to take it. He had heard some wheezing in my chest. the cough was SOO deep, was scaring people in school when i went back on friday
1:05 pm
Scrabbler

I would have put you on azithromycin to cover for possible "walking pneumonia" germs--Mycoplasma and Chlamydophila. Augmentin won't treat those.
1:06 pm
Scrabbler

So if you don't improve in a few days go back to the doctor and tell him that your pediatrician has a plan.
1:06 pm
Scrabbler

How long have you been sick?
1:07 pm
Dorens

ok that's a plan. It started last Saturday, while I wa up in cambridge babysitting. began as laryngitis and a little sore throat... jumped into lungs on Monday

1:15 pm

1:15 pm

molly, he plans these trips to coincide with conferences, so he gets his flight/hotel, etc paid for. Last year he was teaching in Copenhagen for a couple of weeks, then liz and the kids flew over and met him there

A web-based survey of readers of Nuts magazine in late 2006 stirred interest in this notion,[3] which was criticised as unscientific and unreliable.[4][5] It has been suggested that such exaggeration is possibly just as prevalent in women. This condition can only truly be called "man" flu when the sufferer in question has a partner from whom they hope to solicit extra attention to care for their supposedly grievous symptoms. When the sufferer is alone then the condition can only be the common cold or flu.[6][7] However, regardless of any scientific basis, the idea behind man flu has been present in popular culture, and has even been the source of controversy when used in advertising.[8]

People create a list by first finishing the grid and then compiling a list of clues (like Lickety's). It's a lot of work and I appreciate the people who take the time to do it.

Hello Babblers.
7:09 pm

The hard part of creating a list is first finishing the grid without a list.
7:09 pm
Jillyjill

Hi wht!
7:09 pm

Basically, once someone finishes, they copy their word list and eliminate all but the fist two letters of each word.
7:10 pm

I SO agree Molly...Jaq usually has it...and I just really need the list after awhile...

Repear: Peel another one, because the first one was too mushy
9:37 pm
Jacula

Mind you, I mind not have been wrong typing 'repear', since everything goes pear-shaped when I try to get to complicated with maths.:-(
9:37 pm
Jacula

LOL Molly!

Une - Logarithms worked for me, though I wasn't quite sure what they were for, and long division worked much better than short division, then came algebra....
9:45 pm
Uneaixoise

loved algebra I and II, trig, geometry, etc. -- but calculus stabbed me in the heart! LOL

I like what Einstein said about mathematics..."as far as the laws of mathematics refer to reality, they are not certain; and as far as they are certain, they do not refer to reality"

And the answer to a stupid question like 'Two men are filling a bath with a hole in it from 2 buckets, one of which has a pinhole in the the bottom, and the river is flowing at 2 miles per hour - how long does it take them to fill the bath?' just elicited a response, like 'Why bother? Or at least plug the leaks first!'

Well done Une! *~*~*~*~*~*

Hi Min

Jacula

Hi Min. I'm doing fine (but not found another job yet).

Jacula

Want to hear an old joke? There was a man who had worked at a factory for twenty years. Every night when he left the plant, he would push a wheelbarrow full of straw to the guard at the gate.

The guard would look through the straw, and find nothing and pass the man through.

On the day of his retirement the man came to the guard as usual but without the wheelbarrow.

Having become friends over the years, the guard asked him, "Charlie, I've seen you walk out of here every night for twenty years. I know you've been stealing something. Now that you're retired, tell me what it is. It's driving me crazy."

Charlie simply smiled and replied, "Okay, wheelbarrows!"

LOL at your joke and thank you.My dog's real name is Jack

The old joke I told reminds me of the day after the night of strong winds when my ex-hub presented me with a dozen plastic watering cans for my garden. They''d blown over the fence from the DIY/Gardening place in the next unit on the industrial estate.
9:59 pm
Jacula

That's so many years ago now only 3 of the original cans survive.

Speaking of plastic, has the make-up of it changed to be bio-degradable since the 70s and 80s? I've got plastic troughs, planters etc., that I bought back then that still survive. However, a few plastic planters I've bought from £1 shops (cheap shops or perhaps $1 shops to my US friends) have gone brittle and broken within a year.
