very true, dart. If we were moving that far, we would definitely hire movers.
1:54 am

5:42 am

... Yes ... the tennis is still there ... the men's and women's tournaments alternate between York U and Montreal but I think they're changing that this year ... to put both tournaments in one city and have a big US Open or Wimbledon like tournament
5:43 am
doseffing

... went to York for grad school ... ... but even it is bigger ... ... was there in 1983 ... took my daughter for a tour last year and got lost

6:06 am

... I can say with great precision when daughter number two was born ... 1:17 in the afternoon ... ... but have no idea of when daughter one arrived ... ... it was the night of the change over and they had stopped all the clocks in the hospital ... and forgotten to start them again ... ... the delivery room staff all looked at their watches and came up with four different times varying by an hour and a half
6:07 am
Scrabbler

When I was a resident and on call in the hospital there was always confusion with the time changes. First it is 0159 then 0200 then 0100..

7:37 am
Mom

did you have a lot of snow this winter, Scrabbler?
7:38 am
Scrabbler

It was a very mild winter. My driveway got plowed out 6 times and usually it would happen20-22 times. Buffalo got about 40 inches and usual for where I live, in "ski country" is 120.
7:39 am
Mom

wow, that is a mild winter.
7:39 am
Mom

We have had only 5" this year

7:40 am

and I am okay with that
7:40 am
Scrabbler

The ski resort across the valley from me had a fair year--never had all of the trails open. I feel bad for their financial woes this yr.
7:41 am
Mom

with winters like this can they make their own snow?
7:41 am
Scrabbler

I XC-skied just 5 times and snowhsoed 3. Usually I would ski or snowshoe 3-4 times weekly through thee winter.
7:41 am
Scrabbler

Yes, making their own snow saved them. They were still open yesterday but I am sure they will close within the next wk.
7:42 am
Mom

Yes, it will be a bit warm to ski
7:46 am

Hi scrabs, Hi (((MOM)))

Our granddaughter and her friend are flying to Glasgow at the end of the month.
10:56 am
Haz1558

How long are they going to be there? They mustn't miss Edinburgh!
10:56 am

then will visit a college friend in Aberdeen but don't know what they'll do after that..
10:56 am
Haz1558

They can't not visit Edinburgh.
10:56 am

Mar 28 to Apr 8..I will tell them..

10:58 am

10:58 am
Haz1558

Tell them I insist!
10:58 am
westford

I will. Edinburgh would be my first choice too
10:59 am
Haz1558

Glasgow and Edinburgh are about 40 miles apart. Aberdeen is further north along the same east coast as Edinburgh. Tiny distances in American terms, of course.
11:00 am
westford

she's in Cambridge MA now..an hour away from us in Rhode Island..we know tiny
11:01 am
Haz1558

Will it be their first time in Europe?
11:01 am

she also wants to see Loch Ness..the ruins of the family castle are there
11:01 am
westford

yes it will..she went to Australia 2 years ago
11:02 am
westford

she loves to travel
11:02 am

and never invites Grandmother lol
11:02 am
Haz1558

Then she'll be going even further north than Aberdeen if she heads to Loch Ness - she'll see some beautiful scenery.
11:04 am
westford

Didn't one of your girls go to school in Edinburgh?
11:05 am
Haz1558

Yes, my younger girl studied in Edinburgh. Husband and I also went to university there, (it's where we met) and so I have a great fondness for the city.
11:05 am

11:06 am

I think Cassie won't want to come home.
11:07 am

I'm sure she'll have a great time, but no matter where you go, I think it's always nice to be home.

It's the travel to and from that gets to me.

I'd like to try flying first class but I doubt whether that will ever happen.

Speaking of flying I need to get going and make lunch for my husband who can look at a full refrigerator and not find a thing.

Maybe I've just forgotten ever encountering some of these words before, but there seem to be a lot of unusual ones.
11:20 am
Haz1558

Scrabbler, Nononanette has Volley's list on her profile.
11:21 am
Vicuna

I've only done my once-through, so this is always the point when things get hard.
11:21 am
Patxxx

How odd that we can enter quite a number of relatively unknown abreviations of various organisations yet YMCA is not allowed! I expect YMCA is know in most countries. The fact that I have time to worry about trivialities such as this means the grid is beating me.
11:22 am
Scrabbler

Aha, TY, Haz. Volley's profile is closed so I didn't know where else to go.
11:22 am
Haz1558

You're welcome, Scrabbler.
11:23 am
Vicuna

Hmmm... I can't think of any accepted abbreviations of organizations. The only acronyms I can think of function as real words, such as scuba and sonar.
11:24 am

11:25 am

11:25 am

Sorry Vicuna, forgot to address you. Does the second aa word have a meaning other than an acronym?
11:26 am
Patxxx

Ta Vicuna.
11:27 am
Scrabbler

OK, I printed the list. BabAnon didn't have it earlier today.
11:27 am
Vicuna

No worries, Patxxx. Just checked OED, and its apparently a plant, although given as capitalized, so it shouldn't count anyway. First rule of Babble: no one can fathom the mysterious ways of Enable!
11:29 am
Scrabbler

So what is aa4/5? I have the aa4/4.
11:29 am

Thank you vm Vicuna. I hadn't realised that scuba and sonar were actually abreviations but should have.

I guess that's the question, eh, Pat? When does a borrowing get to count as English? If most native English speakers don't even think of it as a borrowing, then clearly it's full-fledged English. How many native English speakers who say "ciao" think they're speaking English?

Hi all -- just dropping in before lunch. It's been so windy here that all ferries have been cancelled. I was supposed to have an appointment with a plastic surgeon to have a basal cell carcinoma on my chin removed, but it was postponed (for the second time) and now I have to wait until April because the doc is going away for 2 weeks. Gaaah!
2:34 pm
Scrabbler

Yay Sue.
2:34 pm

Aw, Jill, that stinks.
2:34 pm

jilli, are you having Moh's surgery
2:35 pm

Well, at least I can do some more babbling (after lunch). 59 to go.
2:36 pm

Uno. Geez, I had never planned to finish this miserable grid. SO many odd words.
2:37 pm
Scrabbler

Grrr, frog cousin was last word.
2:37 pm
cybernan

hi jill -- my husband is trying something new -- chop up an eggplant put it in a jar and cover it with vinegar. Give it a shake everytime you go to the fridge. After 3 days strain the eggplant out, dip a cotton ball in the vinegar solution and tape it to the basal cell with surgical tape. Change the dressing 2 x/day - basal cell should (might?) clear up in 3 weeks time.
2:37 pm

go Scrabs!!

Woot, Woot, Scrabs
2:38 pm

yay! Scrabbler!

How do I ever give clues for the many non-words?
2:38 pm
jillibus

No, bichon -- this was supposed to have been done before my (now cancelled) trip to Australia on March 6, and I would have had to wait months for Moh's. Ironic! I have had to wait months now for a mere excision with the available-earlier doc.
2:39 pm
bichon

sorry to hear about all this aggravation for you.
2:39 pm

hihi 76 to go here. dunno how much longer I can go with no list.
2:39 pm
cybernan

jill - did you see my note at 2:37?
2:39 pm
jillibus

nan, I don't think that would work in this case -- the thing is barely visible and fairly extensive -- just a pinkish area but biopsy said bcc.
2:39 pm
cybernan

something to try in the meantime!
2:39 pm
cybernan

yes that is what hubby has
2:40 pm

2:41 pm
HarryHood

ty jilli...I'm not quite ready to list - kids are coming home any minute anyway.
2:42 pm
cybernan

of course, he will go to see the doc again as soon as we get back to BC, but is trying this in the meantime. Google eggplant + basal cell, or melanoma and you should come up with the info
2:45 pm
bichon

Sounds like a column in the newspaper "The People's Pharmacy"
2:46 pm
jillibus

Thanks, nan, will check it out.
2:46 pm
jillibus

Ok, Harry -- thought you didn't know there WAS a list.
2:46 pm

basal cell, okay, but melanoma, too scary
2:47 pm

Going for lunch now -- back later to troll for clues etc. Thanks for those I've found so far!

hi hurshy!
4:40 pm

Hi Hursh, how are you feeling?
4:41 pm
hurshy

not great
4:41 pm
MollyL

: (
4:41 pm
uusue2

what's the matter, hurshy?
4:42 pm
hurshy

nasty mean cold, and forgot to take psych med yesterday, result: excess anxiety
4:42 pm
uusue2

bummer, hurshy!
4:43 pm
hurshy

it's really weird, even when you KNOW it's irrational and result of not taking meds and that it will go away and everything... i guess it takes some edge off but you really just can't talk it away
4:44 pm
hurshy

that may have sounded wrong and was not meant to denigrate the use of talk therapy
4:44 pm
mab

been there
4:44 pm
uusue2

no, I get it, hurshy, have tried both and still haven't decided which really works, if anything does
4:45 pm
hurshy

i like my talk therapy i meant more talking MYSELF out of feelings
4:45 pm
hurshy

hey mab!
4:46 pm
uusue2

ah, that has never worked for me either, hurshy, at least not for any extended length of time
4:49 pm
MollyL

I guess it depends on which are the dominant voices in your head.
4:49 pm
hurshy

i feel so sure i will get breast cancer someday. probably in the next 5 years.
4:49 pm
bichon

I've found that SSRI's really take care of most of my anxiety and depression. Haven't been in talk therapy for long periods of time
4:49 pm
bichon

Why do you say that hursh. Do you have the BRCCA mutation
4:50 pm
hurshy

my sister in law and another friend both have it and both had kids late, and i have no kids, and both of those similarly give you an increased risk
4:50 pm
hurshy

no i don't know anything about my genes
4:50 pm
uusue2

well, my sister had kids early and got breast cancer; it's a small indicator of risk but certainly not definitive
4:50 pm
bichon

Yes, but it's only a slight risk. Not as much as if you have the BRACCA mutation
4:51 pm
hurshy

i know i just feel like i will get it cause i'm so afraid of getting cancer
4:51 pm
hurshy

it's not rational
4:51 pm
uusue2

I went through a period of panicking about breast cancer (since my sister had it, and my mother had ovarian cancer), but have mostly relaxed about it now
4:51 pm
hurshy

i wouldn't mind if you could just get it and that was it. it's the treatments i'm afraid of.
4:51 pm
bichon

If you let yourself dwell on it Hurshy, it will feed your anxiety
4:52 pm
MollyL

I agree with Bich. Why not dwell on not getting it.
4:52 pm
bichon

I've been tested for the mutation as a number of people in my family have had the mutation and cancer. But, since I don't have the mutation, I feel much better. And, I have a yearly mammogram
4:52 pm
uusue2

it helped me a little to calculate what my expected risk was (although in the absence of genetic testing it was a bit of a crap shoot)
4:53 pm
hurshy

i was just giving an example of the irrational anxieties.
4:53 pm
bichon

I find myself less anxious now that I have dogs and I exercise a lot
4:53 pm
mab

the odds are, of course, against you becoming ill. My sister was diagnosed last April with stage III. The tx was not pleasant, but it wasn't horrid either. today she is cancer free.
4:53 pm
crosshair

both are good for anxiety
4:54 pm
uusue2

and if it were as easy as just not dwelling on it, I'm sure Hurshy wouldn't be - went through a lot of that myself, it's not something you can stop especially if it's not rationally based
4:54 pm
hurshy

yeah usually i'm fine it's just being sick and missing a dose and all that.
4:54 pm
uusue2

((((hurshy)))))
4:55 pm
bichon

If I miss a dose or two, I get very dizzy, which feeds into other things. Try not to do it..but
4:55 pm
hurshy

on the bright side, co5/24 is a nice word to have in the grid
4:55 pm
mab

you are simply not yourself right now hurshy. keep reminding yourself that there is no point in worrying about something that may never happen.

4:59 pm

4:59 pm
bichon

I find that if I exercise [mostly power walking with the dogs] my body release natural anti-anxiety
5:00 pm
hurshy

different things are easy for different people that's for sure. my sister called me up one time to ask me to explain to her why children disobey. she was a very compliant child so she doesn't understand why her kids don't have as strong a drive to please her. :)
5:00 pm
crosshair

i do not know about anxiety,but i do know about facing death,on many levels and like bichon says,you need a nice energetic outlet and live for the person you are now..and i will shut up ,but i offer this because i care
5:01 pm
hurshy

i felt like trying to explain this was like trying to explain different colors to a person born blind
5:01 pm
bichon

that was sweet crossy
5:01 pm

i understand hurshy. I am a worrisome sort, by nature
5:01 pm

i wish i were vulcan. wouldn't it be nice to always be logical?
5:02 pm
hurshy

yes mab - but they do have to work for that control!
5:02 pm
hurshy

it would be interesting to have a book that featured vulcan mental illness.
5:02 pm
mab

they do?
5:02 pm
uusue2

(((hurshy))) I have been there, it is hard to explain to people (I had a particularly nasty ex who didn't understand why I couldn't just "cheer up" when I was profoundly depressed)
5:04 pm
hurshy

yes, vulcan history is very violent, more than ours. so that is why surak developed the non-emotional path of logic and people followed him to avoid the self-annihilation of the race. by kirk/spock time, as they grow up, they have to learn to control their emotions.
5:04 pm

6:02 pm

I love that cat. The way it looks at the buddha... priceless
6:03 pm

ah well - it was the existence of the themes that got me started on putting up the astronomy picture of the day as my icon - perhaps I'll put a little homage in my profile...
6:04 pm

I always enjoyed your astronomy pics, uusue. I even subscribed to that site for a while. Very beautiful pics.

If atheism is to be used to express the state of mind in which God is identified with the unknowable, and theology is pronounced to be a collection of meaningless words about unintelligible chimeras, then I have no doubt, and I think few people doubt, that atheists are as plentiful as blackberries... - Leslie Stephen (1832-1904), literary essayist, author

Changing icons every day is more than most people want to fool with. How about icon theme of the week? Or month? If someone else want's to take it on. I'm sure Sprite is ready to hand off the baton.
