Angel, we have thought lately about a walk-in tub, too, would be interested in hearing about your experiences if you do put one in.
12:09 am
rururocks

I'm against walk-in tubs
12:09 am
jmcnrick

why ru?
12:10 am
jmcnrick

<==glutton for punishment
12:10 am

they look scary to me, like a big leak waiting to happen, but...
12:10 am
rururocks

what's next.. crawl in tubs
12:11 am
Angelsong

ru, I need something a lot safer than we have now. I have struggled with this for five years.
12:11 am
MLFAN17

i used ot use a walk in shower
12:11 am
rbud

I don't think I'd enjoy sitting there until the water's gone, either, but you'd have to.
12:11 am
cybernan

12:11 am

i have been thinking of changing my tub to a large shower with a built-in bench and hand shower adapter
12:12 am
MLFAN17

cyber what are the stats for the O on the 5th column?
12:12 am
jmcnrick

wtg cyber
12:12 am
jillibus

what worries me about walk-in tubs is emptying them while you sit there wet and shivering.
12:12 am

There are several "unwell" words in this grid.

yes, jilli, that was one of my worries, too, but I guess maybe if your drain's fast it might not be so bad
12:13 am

12:16 am

I tend to like showers
12:16 am

one of my buddies got really, really drunk at his bachelor party.. and passed out.. one of our friends was a pre-med so we put one of his legs in a case.. and told him a few days before his wedding that he broke a bone in his leg.. so he had to do his whole wedding with a tuxedo slit up the leg and on crutches.. he was always pulling jokes on everyone else so we got him back.. on his honeymoon.. someone called him to tell him he could take of the cast and he just howled with laughter

it is in the depression on his back where chows keep their curly tails, so he keeps biting it
3:47 am
rubyfoo

happily, our vet makes huse calls
3:48 am
grannyrose

thanx neil, will do. and ruby, is it worth clipping his fur/hair in that area to keep it cooler?
3:49 am
rubyfoo

the vet clipped a lot of the hair, but it's a question of his letting it heal
3:49 am
gapeach1066@yaho

Sort of a Dr. Herriot. Remember the English vet that wrote those wonderful books a few decades ago?
3:49 am

You have a psychotic canary, Rose?
3:49 am

I could face the idea of an Elizabethan collar for such a sweetie
3:49 am
negativeneil

Maybe he needs a... yeah, a cone.
3:49 am
rubyfoo

couldn't*
3:50 am
negativeneil

Well I could if it meant the wound would heal.
3:50 am
negativeneil

And you could put some medicated ointment on it too, if the vet recommends that?
3:50 am
negativeneil

It's not like he'd have to wear it permanently.
3:50 am
negativeneil

I've read those books, gapeach.
3:51 am
rubyfoo

oh yes, he has a cortisone cream, betadine, antibiotics and a calmant. I think he'll be OK.
3:51 am
negativeneil

"All Creatures Great And Small", "All Things Bright And Beautiful"... yeah. They were good. Made into a TV series too.
3:51 am
rubyfoo

he has such a good disposition, wagged his tail the whole time the vet was here and she was medicating him and giving him shots, that I don't want him to be more upset
3:51 am
grannyrose

yes neil my canary is psychotic...problem is he thinks he's a budgerigar....and acts like it.
3:52 am

Huh Rose?
3:52 am

Ruby, who hadn't seen this vet in 3 years and who only had her nails clipped, remembers her and growls! chows are like elephants

Ruby, did you find the book "A Gift from Brittany"? I kept it on my desk for a while....thought I'd send it over to you.....someone, obviously, snitched it.
3:53 am

aand chows are totally unforgiving
3:53 am

don't know, neil. he just behaves like one. any paper left near his cage he shreds. he loves his mirror, and little ladder, and swing.

it's on order, peach. Thanks for recommending it
3:54 am

omg, neil, that's you????how old are you there?

Don't canaries usually like mirrors, ladders and swings?

Canary song is beautiful.
4:01 am
negativeneil

And I've just replied to your last email btw.
4:02 am
grannyrose

no neil, ladders etc don't usually amuse them. my canary sits on the perch below his swing, and as he sings, hits the swing with his head so that it swings in time to his song. and you should see him in his bath....
4:02 am
gapeach1066@yaho

May I please have a clue for ol5-12? Thanks
4:02 am

he gets into his bath, and his little feet go up and down, like he is paddling...it is soooo cute

4:05 am

he gives us all so much delight....but mother mac will be saddened by the fact we have had to move him out of her rooms. he is just outside her doorway, so she can come out and talk to him. and we will put him back once the heating is no longer required

Canaries don't like much heat, Rose?
4:09 am
grannyrose

well, they do neil, but there has to be a cool spell inbetween. they moult at the first sign of warm weather....but with the heater in mother mac's rooms, he thinks it is costantly summer. hence he pulls out his heathers.

6:17 am

lovely! when my daughter was younger, we use to go to the library every week and she'd get a ton of books and we'd sit down together and read through them and every night she'd get me to read her a story, well, normally ended up being a few..lol. she still likes to read now which is great!

i don't think children read enough....when i use to help out at my daughter's old school with reading, there were 10 year olds who couldn't read...the parents didn't do anything to help them either as they said that was the schools job!!
6:24 am

good idea.. we plan on hanging paper bats from ceiling and making spider cookies out of oreos..also can go the space way, with stars, moon, etc

i agree teach. the problem is that kids are too busy playing on game stations,wii games, etc

only if parents let them - they need to read but also to be outside playing

I will remember how wrong I was, and how pretty the berries look, and that you can eat them.

lol. i can't remember what i'm doing at times, so i have no hope remembering these words.at times i can't remember words to speak, so it is "give us a clue" drives my hubby and daughter potty...but i can't help it! that's why i play this game, to help:)
7:36 am
lilliann

i only know it because i've eaten it :)
7:37 am

see, no matter how you remember, you do! And I think this is a great game to help you train the brain. Works for me as well. I have trouble saying the words I am thinking. Like thinking 'rain' and saying 'umbrella' or something like that. Or sometimes not related at all. Very odd.
7:38 am

what drives me mad, is that i can see the word in my head, or a picture of the meaning but i can't say it!!

mine sometimes laugh at me and other times they get annoyed!it drives me mad though as i use to have a brilliant memory but when my balance was destroyed, my memory got worse...don't know why?
7:43 am
sprite

the brain is a weird thing and they don't know much about how it works, no matter how much they think they know.I can relate to having a great memory... used to have one too! No idea why it goes when things get rough. Maybe the energy is needed elsewhere?
7:45 am
lilliann

i know that the memory part of the brain is next to the balance part, so that could be why, but i don't know how it would have been affected? could be sprite.who knows?
7:46 am
sprite

well, not me, for sure :)
The only thing I know, because my psychiatrist told me, is that the more the learn about the brain, the more they realise almost everything is reversable. The brain has an amazing talent for recuperating. So I keep hope :)
7:48 am
lilliann

hope is a good thing to have sprite:)
7:48 am
sprite

it is :) Pretty essential, I think.
7:52 am

8:22 am

hadn't thought of that, sprite - my last name starts with W so it is especially apt :-)

sprite+lillian(if your still there) i can relate.chemo treatments do interesting things to the brain and thats why i do babble as well,to keep things sharp.i can stand there,look at a object like my briefcase,and have to go through an entire list to get it correct..suitcase,sample case etc and when under pressure or time constraints it gets worse

8:48 am

it does indeed happen
8:48 am

OOOOWWWW. I do not do the reckless racing. Just a few times I have hit a hole or rock or mud and went flying. No major injuries fortunately. I am too old to be risky like some mtn biking can be.

8:49 am

they come upo to wasaga and do not read the signs and try to swim the nottawasaga river.it have a terrible undertow and 5-10 people a year used to be lost to it.it would suck thyem down mid rive and spit the bodies up at the mouth as it empties into the bay
8:50 am

well, as they say, as one dorr closes another opens

Hi BR. Has the snow melted up there yet?
8:57 am

the place itself is not dangerous katie...it is the way people use it
8:57 am

Haha, Kitt. I want to visit Crossy--it is a place of beauty and I would love to bring my kayak there.
8:57 am

last of it went last week scrabby
8:58 am

it is amazing as scrabby knows,as long as you use common sense
8:58 am
BabbleRabble

Snow is long gone very mild winter no flooding
8:58 am
KatieMcG

what is the weather like with you Scrabbler? we are at Niagara in two and a half weeks time
8:58 am
Scrabbler

Mild winter for us too although we got 8 inches on April 23rd and lost power for 5 hrs overnight.
8:59 am
crosshair

even where you live is dangerous katie if i act like a maniac
9:00 am
KatieMcG

that's true crossy - though I felt the swimmers hadn't done much wrong, that was down to other peoples stupidity
9:00 am
Scrabbler

We are having beautiful, sunny hot weather, Kitt, but we could get rain anytime.
9:01 am
crosshair

scrabby,mrs and i were spelunking last week and found our very own ice cave!! was 75f-80 f outside and we wound out way through,with much of it open to the sky and then all these sheets of ice hanging off the walls and in the fissues..was pretty
9:02 am
KatieMcG

we are only there for an an evening and then the next day until mid afternoon, just enough time to do maid in the mist and take loads of photos, we go on to Lake Erie for the night after that
9:02 am
KatieMcG

that sounds fantastic crossy
9:02 am
crosshair

it was katie
9:02 am
lilliann

sounds beautiful crossy
9:03 am

you could feel the summer sun on your head through opening on roof of cave,but then all the cold radiatying from the ice sheets and fissures
9:03 am
Scrabbler

So COOL, Crossy!
9:03 am
lilliann

so i take it you are travelling around katie? how long are you going for?
9:03 am
Scrabbler

Kitt, what day will you be in NF?
9:04 am
crosshair

if you are as far as niagra katie,you should come up for a crossy breakfast
9:04 am
Scrabbler

And are you doing a boat trip on the lake?
9:05 am
KatieMcG

it will be 18 days in total. 1-4 June NY, 4/5 Niagara, 5/6 Lake Erie, then 6-10 Parkersburg WV, 11-14 Nashville, 15-18 Parkersburg. we are very excited.
9:05 am
Scrabbler

Kitt, my mother's home is just 20 min from Niagara Falls.
9:06 am
KatieMcG

yes scrabbler, we have even looked out our underwater camera for that very purpose :)
9:07 am
KatieMcG

Wow I can't imagine living that close to a world famous natural attraction
9:07 am
Scrabbler

Is the boat ride from Niagara Falls to Erie, Pennsylvania?
9:08 am
lilliann

sounds lovely. i hope you have a great time...i'm sure you will :)
9:08 am
lilliann

how lovely scrabs. i've always wanted to go there
9:09 am
KatieMcG

No we are just doing the maid in the mist, we will then drive to the inn we have booked on the shore of Lake Erie - I'll just go look up which one/where it is
9:09 am
Scrabbler

It is quite impressive. The force of water is amazing. I enjoy seeing the tourists there--they are so excited. And I hear so many languages!
9:09 am
Scrabbler

Kitt, I live just 45 min from the eastern lakeshore.
9:10 am
lilliann

i might get there one day. we want to hire a winniebago and travel around
9:10 am
Scrabbler

Good plan, Lil.
9:11 am
lilliann

it is scrabs, but whether it ever comes off who knows
9:11 am
KatieMcG

It's the Lakehouse Inn and Winery at Geneva-on-the-Lake, Ohio
9:11 am
Scrabbler

OK, that is probably 2 hrs from me.
9:12 am
lilliann

did you plan and book everything yourselves katie?
9:12 am
Scrabbler

I have 2 dream trips: Italy/Sicily, and the UK.
9:14 am
Scrabbler

Well, it is time for me to read the morning newspaper. I shall return. 122 words to go.
9:14 am
lilliann

i've been to italy in a lorryand been to loads of factories and lorry parks...great food still though but not quite the same as a dream trip..lol
9:14 am
KatieMcG

I would love to hire a winniebago :) Yes Lilliann. The main reason to go was to visit/meet the hubby's family in parkersburg. We added in NY as we have to change planes there and it means I get to spend my birthday in NY. Nashville came into play as I was quite ill with stress/depression last year and hubby wanted to cheer me up and I am a massive country music fan (very unusual in the UK) then Niagra and Lake Erie were just sensible places to visit lol
9:14 am
KatieMcG

Scrabbs if you come to the UK you have a place to stay here!!
9:15 am
lilliann

scrabs will have loads of place to stop :)
9:15 am
Scrabbler

TY, Kitt. There are many Babblers I would want to meet in the UK.
9:15 am
KatieMcG

won't she just! we are all so close in comparison to the states that we could just have one massive meet up
9:16 am

I am very drawn to the UK countryside--rolling hills, old homes, cottages, farms, gardens.

I'm much better now lilliann, you know how it is if it doesn't kill you it makes you stronger, and it has certainly got me to prioritise my life much better. I now spend the miminum time I can at work and with those that I work with and the maximum time with my family, friends and Church.

katie's plan sounds wonderful!
9:23 am
lilliann

my mam and dad had to have their dog canni put down last weekend :(
9:23 am
rubyfoo

I am OK but have just been through a scare with new puppy. He developed a "hot spot" and I was afraid it was because of what I was feeding him.
9:23 am
rubyfoo

The vet came twice and I think he's on the mend. What a wonderful dog!!!!
9:24 am
lilliann

"hot spot"?
9:24 am
crosshair

indeed katie,i am greatful to be where i am at the base of blue mtn on the shores of georgian bay.i 5 minutes i can be boating,water skiing,hiking,rock climbing,spelunking,or just a nice stroll trough the woods,in winter i can ice fish,ski it is amazing
9:24 am
KatieMcG

Oh that's such a shame lilliann
9:24 am
lilliann

glad to hear it ruby
9:24 am

the vet said, in French, "He has what we call in France a "hot spot" m LOL
9:24 am

Yep crossy that definitely beats Watford

oh ok..lol
9:24 am

9:27 am
crosshair

uh oh,hubby being bad boy?
9:27 am
lilliann

it was katie. he was only 4.apparently he was born without a vein from the liver which takes all the crap away and it was going to his brain.when he was on anti-biotics he was fine but when he wasn't it was just going to his brain. they said they could operate but there was no guarantee it would work and they didn't want to put him through major surgery for it not to work. he was a lovely little dog
9:27 am
rubyfoo

I am getting sick of his snarling (not the puppy)
9:28 am
crosshair

tell him we can type grumpy p.i.t.a on his headstone if thats how he wishes to be remembered,my f.i.l was same way
9:28 am

You know what Ruby? I would quit cooking for someone until they can be pleasant.
9:28 am

And serving him drinks.
9:29 am

{{hello molly}}

I do a minimum now, that's for sure

if my wife actually served me a drink,i think i would fall off my chair in shock!!!

lol crossy
9:29 am
lilliann

you spoil him too much ruby
9:30 am
rubyfoo

I feel sorry for him but, at this point, I'm just staying away from him as much as possible
9:30 am
KatieMcG

I know how they feel, our Ruby Judy cat was having real problems with her leg and I was worried about having to get her operated on when we didn't know if it was going to be successful. It wasn't the money it was putting her through it all and the rehab. We were so relieved when it came back as arthritis which can be managed with drugs. She won't live to a very old age but she isn't in pain and didn't have to have the op so it was good news.
9:30 am
MollyL

You know what Ruby? I feel sorry for you. Someone as nice and sweet as you are, should be appreciated.
9:31 am
crosshair

yes,when he expects things that you do for him and does not appreciate the things you do for him,it is best to let him fend for himself a bit
9:31 am
rubyfoo

thank you, molly, that is a nice thing to say
9:31 am
rubyfoo

unfortunately, if he was younger, I could do more
9:31 am
KatieMcG

I just can't imagine not dumping the food in his lap
9:31 am
rubyfoo

but he's old and winding down and, therefore, depressed
9:31 am
lilliann

i'm glad to hear it katie
9:32 am
rubyfoo

when the vet came, she looked over my beloved Ruby and thought she looked great
9:32 am
rubyfoo

that was a relief because she, too, is getting old
9:32 am
lilliann

but that doesn't give him the excuse to take it out on you when you do so much for him ruby
9:33 am
rubyfoo

and she thought Rufie was magnificent (her word)
9:33 am
rubyfoo

there's nothing I can do about it
9:33 am
rubyfoo

"magnifique"
9:33 am
KatieMcG

I cried for days around all the tests as I really thought I was going to have to put her down and it would have been too much to bear, at least now we can appreciate our time with her even if it is a little shortened.
9:33 am
MollyL

No excuse at all. He has a lot to be grateful for. A loving wife, a beautiful home.
9:34 am
crosshair

i do not think i can ever wind down,too many books await and as long as i can hobble to the bathroom under my own steam and turn the pages of a book,i am all set
9:34 am
rubyfoo

<-- not so loving anymore
9:34 am
lilliann

awww, that's good ruby
9:34 am

I love it here and just try to keep my own peace

and it is finally real spring! flowers everywhere
9:35 am
crosshair

seen you pic ruby.you are pocket sized,can toss you over my shoulder and carry you anywhere:))
9:35 am
lilliann

atleast you have time with her katie which is great.we love our pets so much and they become part of the family so it is very hard when we lose them.
9:36 am
rubyfoo

katie, it is wonderful that the arthritis can be managed.
9:36 am
rubyfoo

losing an animal is terribly painful
9:37 am
rubyfoo

every time Rufie drinks from the fishpond, my heart is in my mouth
9:37 am
lilliann

the sad thing is it took years for my mam to talk my dad into getting another dog and he won't let her have another one now.canni (rascal in french) was suppose to be my mam'sdog, but he ended up being my dad's and it's hit him really hard
9:37 am
Anniebrook

hi ruby, glad to learn Rufie is on the mend
9:37 am
rubyfoo

but I never told husband what really happened to Max; there was no point in "sharing" that information
9:37 am
rubyfoo

{{annie}}
9:38 am
crosshair

no ruby,that he does not need to know
9:38 am
Anniebrook

ruby, is it possible that Burt is starting to suffer from dementia and that accounts for his nastiness
9:38 am
rubyfoo

he is depressed enough without feeling in any way responsible
9:38 am
rubyfoo

at 86, who isn't??? lol
9:39 am
crosshair

very good point annie,he should have some testing done as well as a general physical
9:39 am
Anniebrook

good point
9:39 am
rubyfoo

there's no point
9:39 am
rubyfoo

he has a regular GP who sees him fairly often, has blood tests and sees his cardiologist. As for his mental state, there is no way he would allow himself to be evaluated
9:40 am
MollyL

No point in what? Testing and a physical?
9:40 am
MollyL

How about depression medication?
9:40 am
rubyfoo

I would have to put it in his food and am afraid of its interaction with all the stuff he takes for his heart
9:41 am
rubyfoo

I think I just have to hang on and try to take care of him.
9:41 am
rubyfoo

and do my own stuff
9:41 am
lilliann

i'm sure the doctor could give him something that wouldn't interact with his other drugs
9:42 am
rubyfoo

as with so many older people, the doctors don't necessarily get together on the meds. And, when he sees his GP, he always acts much better
9:42 am
lilliann

and you could always tell him it's a vitamin that the doctor says he needs
9:43 am
rubyfoo

maybe zoloft?
9:44 am
lilliann

then as you say all you can do is have as much space from him as you can..otherwise you'll need anti-depressants
9:44 am
crosshair

we are lucky nhere with that ruby..we use a single pharmacy and all meds are accounted for and any potential reaction with any new meds are noted before they are issued to the patient
9:44 am
MollyL

Ask your doctor. I think there are depression meds specific for older people with depression.
9:45 am
rubyfoo

that's a good idea, molly. I will call him tomorrow and see what he says

pharmacy's in france are good too ruby. you could ask a pharmacist if there is something he could have to go with his other medication

as molly says,my grammy has problems with this in her early 80,s but with sucessful diagnosis and meds she went on to enjoy live and lived to 100!!
9:46 am
rubyfoo

and the pharmacist certainly knows everything he's taking
9:48 am
lilliann

you could have a word with him and see if there is something he could have over the counter if not he could tell you what he could have and then get a prescription from your gp

MollyL

Dicklet! I love it.
9:56 am
viajes

you won't find it, it's not in the grid
9:56 am
rubyfoo

got it, lol
9:56 am
MollyL

It's a made up word Ruby, it doesn't count.
9:56 am
viajes

:) I thought you would like this one, Molly
9:56 am
KatieMcG

I'm sure I tried that in the grid earlier lol
10:00 am
viajes

well with Enable you never know Katie... it could turn out to be some sort of knitting stitch, or a foreign word for a hat
10:00 am
MollyL

Or the currency of Outer Ubangistan
10:01 am
viajes

Oh yes. I think it would be a great name for a currency! The big money could be called dicks and the little money could be called dicklets. "That'll be six dicks and fourteen dicklets."
10:02 am
crosshair

no,thats a niggi molly or a pu which is a triangular coin made of rubber that is 3 miles across:)

who is douglas adams?
10:03 am

the problem was the exchange rate of 3 pus to a niggi,so they never caught on:))
10:03 am
viajes

which book is that crossy? been so long since I read them...
10:03 am
MollyL

The currency thing is open to so many possibilities. "Hey, I'm a little short this week, Can you lend me a dick?"
10:03 am

I just re-read the first Dirk Gently book

Molly and I are both in the PB because of dicks. I hope there are mimosas.
10:05 am

10:05 am

No.
10:06 am
rubyfoo

that's as good a reason to be in the PB as any
10:06 am
MollyL

You can have a mimosa Via. I never ruin good champagne with orange juice.
10:06 am
viajes

I think Long Dark Tea-Time of the Soul is better, because none of the good parts I remembered from the series were in the first book. I'm going to re-read that next.
10:06 am

that's why I use cheap champagne Molly

I have retroactively decided that I was referring to the letters in the grid
10:27 am
viajes

since most of the chog since I left was people saying they were leaving
10:27 am
viajes

;)
10:27 am
viajes

maybe the big currency will be called cocks, and the coins will be dicklets. That way we don't have to go to the PB
10:28 am
MollyL

Hey, almost anything goes in Enable.
10:29 am

Molly doesn't approve of mimosas

I use cheap not-champagne
10:49 am
rururocks

10:49 am

well cheap will give you headaches.. because hard alcohol is added
10:51 am

just plop me in Volnay or Cassis.. and I'll just stay forever
11:19 am

me too.... but seriously, the food was much more cnsistently good in Italy... even in some cheap backwater town where you pay 5 euros for a plate and another 5 for a bottle of wine - ridiculusly good (except venice)
11:20 am
rururocks

that's probably true.. the food in france wasn't great except for one stop or two in the Rhone
11:20 am
kje

it struck me while there that there was less correlation between what you pay and quality in Italy - you could pay nothing and still have an awesome food wine experiene... France, really does matter what you spend

ca6 21 clue plz
3:03 pm
jesdraggon

cut a slit over it so you can get an instrument in to grab it.
3:04 pm
Jillyjill

Soak it for awhile Crossy....may open it up. If that doesn't work...it'll have to be incised out.
3:04 pm
Jillyjill

Ah...the vet is on!! HI Jes!
3:04 pm
crosshair

thought so,and i do not bend like that jes lol
3:04 pm

And then the nurse mother reminds you to not go bare foot!!
3:05 pm

cross, are you a diabetic?
3:05 pm

hmm. well, i'd suggest you have mrs crossy do it...but would her eyesight allow it?

and the only numbing agent i have is vodka unless you want to come over with your bag of tricks jes

then have your son take it out - he will enjoy it
3:06 pm

if the damn thing were not so awkward...
3:08 pm

hah! yes, crossy, stop if you hit bone!
3:09 pm

though i think by that point, perhaps you should consider enlisting the help of a local dr. office?
3:09 pm

if i could see it better,id get hammered and go digging with a needle
3:09 pm
Jillyjill

OK...have only one and cannot monkey it...the sk6/30...last one
3:09 pm
kje

I wouldn't recommend soaking - the wood will soften and you increase teh risk of it shredding as you pull it out and leaving some in. Have someone help you and slowly lift the skin away from the area until a corner can be seen to extract it

Yep, you should be able to look them up in your area on the computer. Try several groups. Not every meeting is the right fit for each person.
5:59 pm

i think im gonna try the one at the gay and lesbian center first

It's hard to feel loved by someone who puts their drinking before every significant relationship in their life. No matter what they say.
6:06 pm
cosdem

its funny because i said to him "its obvious to me ur puttng the drink before me and thats not fair to me. im prob have to leave" and a hour later he broke down and showed me his diary full of his fears of dying young and wanting to stop drinking so bad. hes been holding it in for months
