do you then copy your word list into excel?

i usually just copy it into notepad, divide it into the appropriate sections with a doublespace, shove the borders of the note around until it's a little narrow list, then move it up next to the word list in here and match away. But excel sounds interesting.

5:01 am

yes that is right. Yearly update course of my coaching training.
5:02 am
lynxxx

ahh - I thought it may have been your annual getaway with your girlfriends - are you still doing that?
5:03 am
sprite

no, alas. Two of them didn't want to go anymore. They were too busy, they said.
5:04 am
lynxxx

oh well - their loss. Hope you can find some-one(s) to replace them and get it going again
5:05 am
sprite

yes, I hope so too. It was really something special. Some people don't realise the worth of what they have... and don't have their priorities right. Both of them are kind of burned out right now.
5:07 am
lynxxx

I can understand it though - you get so involved in your work/life - it is hard to see what it is doing to you. Took me 20 years to see it!
5:08 am
sprite

yeah it is not one of our easiest lessons in life, is it :)
5:09 am
lynxxx

True. And somewhat harder for women I think. All the equality/freedom/advantages are hard to live up to. You can burn yourself out being the superwoman/mum
5:11 am

oh that is so very true. It is a bit like the freedom to vote... once you have it, you feel kind of obliged to always use it too.

My husbands favorite (not!) bird is in the grid - my4.7
5:12 am
sprite

must look it up to know what kind of bird it is, hold on
5:13 am
sprite

why doesn't he like it? Because of the fruit eating?
5:13 am
lynxxx

No, because they are very territorial and are bullies
5:14 am
lynxxx

giving the other birds a hard time
5:14 am
sprite

ah! Wiki says it is an invasive species.
5:15 am
sprite

bullies like magpies?
5:15 am
lynxxx

We get the common Myna(h)
5:15 am
sprite

uhoh...
5:16 am
lynxxx

Magpies are OK actually, just during nesting time they are aggressive
5:16 am
lynxxx

aggressive = protective of their nests
5:16 am
sprite

Yeah, just read: "Several species have been introduced to areas like North America, Australia, South Africa and New Zealand, especially the Common My4 which is often regarded as an invasive species."
5:17 am
sprite

magpies also eat baby birds from other species, I believe
5:18 am
lynxxx

mmm - not that I know of - sounds like cuckoos though (none of those here)
5:20 am
sprite

looked it up. "The Magpie will eat any animal food. These foods include young birds and eggs, insects, scraps and carrion."
5:21 am
sprite

fun Magpie fact:
The Eurasian Magpie is one of the most intelligent birds, and it is believed to be one of the most intelligent of all animals. the European Magpie is one of the few animal species known to be able to recognize itself in a mirror test."
5:22 am
sprite

cuckoos are even worse. They are too lazy to make a nest or raise their own young... they lay their eggs in the nests of other birds. The cuckoo young is usually bigger and stronger than its fake siblings and it pushes them out of the nest, tiring out his foster parents by demanding loads and loads of food.
5:22 am
lynxxx

Interesting...although look up Australian Magpie
5:23 am
sprite

indeed! Also omnivoric, but does not eat young birds.
5:24 am
lynxxx

Cuckoos are revolting but very interesting - saw a lengthy program on them about a year ago
5:25 am

it is amazing, all that bevaviour, isn't it. So many variations through nature, and all so smart.

5:30 am

not much hunting in the netherlands, lyn. Not much areas where you can safely hunt, lol.
5:32 am
lynxxx

We have just gone thru duck season again - the protestors outnumber the shooters it seems. So many accidents over the years - they should just ban it - so stupid
5:32 am
debjed

I used to work at the University of Illinois College of Veterinary Medicine. We had a wildlife clinic with some resident raptors. I got to let a red tailed hawk sit on my arm and we had a great horned owl
5:33 am
sprite

must be a weird idea for people from Australia and US... we don't have much areas without habitation. People live everywhere here.
5:33 am
sprite

oh deb, how awesome! I love owls. Amazing creatures.
5:33 am
lynxxx

wow - how wonderful. Now those birds should be able to hunt - not [people!
5:34 am
sprite

I think hunting is fine when some animals will become a pest otherwise. For the rest... hunting for food, that is fine too. But not for fun. Yuck.
5:34 am

i agree lynxxx. The residents they have are there because they were injured and cannot be released back to the wild.

that cop that ticketed me for walking through red asked, as they always do here: would you explain why you did this?

7:54 am

crossy, you don't have to buy any food from WW here. And you can follow the system without weekly meetings and then it is free.
7:54 am
Glantarell

$64 a month online here weightwatchers
7:55 am
crosshair

mm re checking...
7:56 am
Glantarell

and $35 if you go to the meetings
7:56 am
EvaNadine

i do that @work version. i believe that is the same price as the go-to-regular-meetings version.
my coworker does the online-only version, which is slightly cheaper.
once you KNOW the plan, sure, you could stop paying + just do it on your own. but i like going to my meetings.
7:56 am
EvaNadine

but yes, you are not obligated to buy anything -- are you sure youre not thinking of nutri-system or jenny craig?
7:56 am

the online has a big signup fee up front
7:56 am

it is only S7 a week for you, crossy, you silly!
7:57 am

yeah, a sign up fee, true. Still, nowhere near 350 a month!
7:58 am

no, only $15 a month after the sign up fee

i am sorry,they have changed things over the years it seems,61 dollars a month plus tax.the one i remember used to send you an etire month of meals all at once

like i say,i remember a different set up years ago sprite
7:59 am
EvaNadine

my understanding is that WW never did pre-packaged meals. my mom did it 30 years ago + that was the case then...
the whole thing about WW is that they teach you about food, they dont make it for you.
7:59 am
crosshair

you used to get delivered and portioned meals
8:00 am
crosshair

mm..i must be losing it then..i best look at the grid a bit
8:00 am

yeah, it is not that bad now, crossy :)
I can recommend it. It is a marvelous way to go about losing weight. Healthy and applicable to any kind of diet. Leaves room for lots of freedom without ruining your work too.

ty eva...it was nutri-system i was thinking of
8:03 am

that was not WW then, crossy. They never did that. They only have some helpful stuff you can buy or not buy, just as you wish. Like a film you can put in your pans and make each pan errrr... what is the english word... that you don't need fat to cook anything.
8:03 am
EvaNadine

nonstick, sprite?
8:03 am

that's it! Make it non-stick.
8:03 am

see those new green pans ladies?
8:04 am
uusue2

I keep getting spam in my inbox about them, crossy...
8:04 am
EvaNadine

i just use cooking spray.
the only stuff i have bought from WW (other than a few cookbooks/tools) are some of the sweeter snacks. sometimes i like having something around that i know the point value of and the serving size without having to do the calculations.
8:04 am

and spam certainly isn't good for any di4.

don't know green pans. But I know those films work perfectly. Reuseable lots and lots of times (like 100s of times) and easily cleanable as well. We use them a lot.
8:06 am

I bought the calculator, EvaN. I love to be able to calculate the value of anything at all.
8:06 am

those films are probably something like silpat. you can buy them for cookie trays and other shapes of baking sheets.
8:07 am
EvaNadine

sprite, i have it on my phone. and the app + the scanner. :)
8:07 am

I can't use cooking spray. It smells awful and leaves a sticky build up on non-stick pans.
8:07 am

I don't know, EvaN. WW sells them online here. Baklappen, they are called here. Cooking mats, would be a translation, I think.

thats what i love about WW -- everyone has their own tricks to tailor the plan to what works for them. some rely more on the foods and tools they sell, others do it all on their own.
i do EVERYTHING online, but some of the other members in my meeting do it all on paper.
whatever works for you!
8:10 am
uusue2

right, I used to use that, molly, until I read about doing it myself - was a "duh" moment - no chemicals and very cheap! (just the cost of the oil)

Chicken liver bake? Fish balls? Ewwww!
8:11 am

trif, one of our members has belonged for like 50 years. she has literally every cookbook they have ever put out and was telling us about one recipe for "pot roast" using hot dogs that you boiled for like an hour to get all the fat out.

8:18 pm

or low cost or something
8:20 pm
mab

i'm not sure ferrets are suitable pets. they are beautiful in a rodenty kind of way, but still creepy. i guess not suitable for me
8:21 pm
jesdraggon

they aren't rodents, they eat rodents.
8:22 pm
jesdraggon

they are not suitable pets for a lot of people, which is why there are so many of them in rescues.
8:22 pm
mab

really.... well I had no idea.
8:23 pm
jesdraggon

yeah, there's a doctor in Seattle that runs a ferret rescue. Last time I talked to her, she had 218 ferrets.
8:23 pm
mab

thought they were rodents all of my life.
8:24 pm
jesdraggon

oh, no. They're predators. Obligate carnivores, even. They'll eat pretty much anything smaller than themselves. They were bred to hunt "varmints"
8:24 pm
jesdraggon

Put them down rabbit holes to chase all the rabbits out, that kind of thing. Same family as weasels, otters, and skunks.
8:25 pm
mab

that's terrible! i hate how some people treat animals as if they were disposable. some have legitimate reasons for having to give up a pet, but 218?
8:26 pm
jesdraggon

Well, Seattle's a big area... but yeah. They are, I think, the 4th most released small animal. Top 3 are dog, cat, and rabbit.
8:28 pm
mab

one more thing to be terrified of - a ferret in one's bed.
8:28 pm
jesdraggon

heh. actually, there's a "sport" called Ferreting.
8:29 pm
jesdraggon

tie off the bottom of your pant legs, stick a ferret in the pants, and tighten the belt. The guy who can stand it the longest is the winner
8:30 pm
mab

or those snakes and other creatures that are released in the wild. the ones that are not native. in florida they've eaten almost all, literally all deer and smaller animals in some regions.
8:30 pm
mab

is that an olympic sport yet?
8:31 pm
jesdraggon

yeah, pythons are a pretty big everglades issue. Not good for local bird populations...
8:31 pm
jesdraggon

i don't think it's made the olympics. PeTA'd probably have a melt-down.
8:32 pm
mab

as if global warming were not enough, we have to have eco systems destroyed by people who thought they wanted a pet snake.
8:33 pm
jesdraggon

same argument can be made about cats and horses though.
8:33 pm

well, it happens everywhere to some degree. hawaii is not at all what it started out being, etc.

oh yes. i can see that. it's just more shocking when something that can swallow your dlamatian whole is on the loose
