had just started putting words in here...and a few didn't go..so thought it was this site....then dvr program i was watching froze....so tried resetting everything and couldn't get anything to go...so picked up the phone to call the cable company and that was dead too.....
2:07 am

bet that was a shock. Usu when I don't have cable, my internet is out, too; you are / were lucky.
2:08 am

Amazing how many cities/districts do not have proper road equipment for their weather. Including, I might add, Jerusalem, which when it snows every 2-3 years is totally grid-locked
2:22 am
VolleymomDee

I bet, and I had no clue you ever had snow
2:23 am
dart001

coming from a city/state that has a harsh winter..and people know how to live and exist in it...might be interesting here if we get a big snow
2:24 am
VolleymomDee

You'll have to give them some tips :)
2:24 am
ARB

Sure. Jerudalem, Safed and a few other high points get some snow occassionally. The Golan Heights and Mt. Hermon (on the border with Jordan, Levbanon and Syria, is snow capped in the winter and even has some skiing.
2:25 am
KatieMcG

if we get 2 inches of snow the whole of England grinds to a halt - they are much better in scotland
2:25 am

i'll be staying off the roads...unless i have to.....(what a change from before where i was a "necessary" employee)

The first is a celebration barbecue on Saturday 30 June - you'll hear more about this on Sunday. This is an event for the whole church. We will be making a charge to cover meat and bread but I was wondering if the catering team would take care of the salads and desserts.

The second is the Wilnecote Fun Day at the high school on Sunday 12 August. The church is going to run a small refreshments area and I'm looking for people to help out to serve teas and coffees and also to supply cakes.
2:38 am

this was the only email I got from her Mum, the other one might be about alpha. Do you want to forward it to me and see if I can do it.

Did you get that promotion?
7:49 am
car.eeyore

C'mon weekend.....
7:52 am
EvaNadine

pretty much, yes! the gal hasnt full left yet (shes doing half-time here + half-time at her new gig through the end of next week) so im pretty much doing the job the majority of the time + they have put in requests to move me to my new office + get me a blackberry + whatnot.
but i STILL havent heard what my new salary will be...
7:52 am
car.eeyore

$1,000,000,000
7:53 am
trentsnana

Congrats! It's always fun to start a new job (somewhat nerve-wracking, too), but a change of pace is always good for the brain. Hope you get a nice raise.
7:53 am
EvaNadine

i wish YOU were making that call, then, car!
7:53 am
crosshair

ok kitten clip, is up on my wall now for those who wish to see amos and cha-cha battling it out
7:54 am
EvaNadine

the new position is definitely a lot more work and stress than the old one, but im hoping things calm down a bit once it becomes more second-nature to me. i know the team wasnt thrilled with the gal who is leaving... she has a tendency to be self-centered and has the emotional stability of a roller-coaster. i think im much more even-keeled and i know the customer comes first and i want my team to shine, not me.
7:56 am
trentsnana

Good for you, Eva. Sounds like a good attitude. My last promotion was really scary for me, but in no time I was feeling comfortable and was so glad I put in for it. It was much better money and I ended up with a better pension because of it.
7:59 am
car.eeyore

And now I must go....I wish you all a GREAT day! {{hugs}} to all!
7:59 am
trentsnana

Same to you, car.
7:59 am
EvaNadine

im scared poop-less of change in general. i never feel comfortable with it. but i know its necessary, and i KNOW the heftier paycheck will help out at home.
i have worked here for over 11 years, and i have history on the team i will be managing, so its not like i will be starting from zero. i just hope the customers all remember that i havent been managing forever...heh
8:05 am

Well, good luck, Eva. It sounds like you have the right attitude and I think you will do fine! Bye everyone, gotta go get some packing done for the camping trip. Have a great weekend.

so yesterday i had to post these fliers encouraging us to reduce energy use. it said yale's energy use = 95% of what greenland uses. yikes. but then they suggest we turn off our computers when we leave - but they back up at night and if we turn them off, they won't. they suggest we adjust our heat a few degrees - but the heat and cooling in our building is so poorly done that if we try to mess with it it can get waaaay off.
8:54 am

I read something about the carbon footprint of the average american household pet. Egad.
8:55 am
Judi

Ah, the road to hell is paved with good intentions, Hurshy. Besides, the population of Greenland is about 45 (not counting the wildlife), so Yale shouldn't feel so bad.
8:56 am

then i thought, i should point out to the sustainability office, who made these fliers, the thing about the backup, which would apply to everyone, not just my dept. but their website is down so i don't know how to contact them.

you can also make a box with an opening small enough for the small cat but too small for the large cat, that way the little one can get in and eat
10:03 pm

firefly -- how is your yard? I remember you built a new house, were you able to get some flowers and trees in before you got sick?
10:05 pm
firefly779

stid - oh yes, last year! this year we started our garden, lots of veggies, fruits, and we also got a calf for beef ;)
10:06 pm
firefly779

I'm also working on my very own corner in the "front" (it's not a yard, just a space carved out of a large driveway area) with beautiful rock collection art and then some pretty flowers (perennials)
10:06 pm
stidmama

I wonder if we made a box small enough for Tom to get into but too small for me to get into if that strategy would work... *thinking* today I actually FIT into my best pair of dress pants for the first time in months (I don't diet, it's a winter/summer thing).
10:07 pm
stidmama

That's marvelous, firefly! So exciting. I have pics of our veggie garden (first time in about four years) up at my blog. It's not huge, but it's so satisfying to have things growing again!
10:07 pm
firefly779

LOL @stid's theory! congrats on the pants - mine's more of a pregnancy/kids thing, and it's about time I start excercising - as soon as my head is better

I have six left but I am sleepy and no one seems to be cluing... zzzzzz

i can't wait for the kids to be able to forage the garden for snacks ;)

I have 130 left, via, so probably wouldn't be much help
10:08 pm
negativeneil

I have garden envy. A drawback to apartment living. Maybe I'll have to put planters on the balcony.
10:08 pm
uusue2

and I like stid's idea too :-)
10:08 pm
stidmama

what kind of perennials? I have heather under a 12-year old cedar, dahlias, a few roses, and daffodils that manage to keep coming back. Oh, and glads! I was afraid they had all disappeared, but most of them are up again. The irises have leaves but no buds (yet -- she said hopefully)
10:08 pm
firefly779

definitely neil! it can be done ;)
10:09 pm
negativeneil

Yep. Just can't grow a lot out there... but herbs anyway. And who knows what else?
[no, not weed] :P
10:09 pm
stidmama

planters and pots are wonderful neil -- invest in those bulb things that hold water and dispense it as needed via wicking... otherwise a single hot day can do your plants in *said with experience*
10:10 pm
firefly779

i have irises in the back, dug up from my mom's yard, and they actually bloomed after transplanting! in the front, more or less ground cover stuff, like phlox, and some carpet flower things, whatever seeds I have lying around LOL
10:10 pm
stidmama

the nice thing about pots is you can tailor the soil specifically to each plant. So even though I have a 30x30 foot veggie garden the tomatoes are going in three HUGE pots, and many of my bulbs and tender perennials are also in pots.
10:10 pm
uusue2

Neil, I have grown tomatoes, hot peppers, and eggplant in pots on an apartment porch, all were fine.
10:11 pm
firefly779

i think there are tomatoes that can be done in pots, especially little grape kinds maybe
10:11 pm
firefly779

strawberries grow in pots, right?
10:11 pm
stidmama

you garden the same way I do, firefly! I have LOTS of plants gifted from friends when we moved in, a couple of precious plants from my mother in law's childhood home, and some trees my grandmothers and great aunt sent money to buy.
10:12 pm
firefly779

i've got some herbs started, but not up yet in a nice big planter on the patio - hubby and kiddos made it for me for mother's day
10:12 pm
stidmama

ALL kinds of tomatoes grow well in pots. strawberries CAN grow in pots, but they really need diligent watering when it gets warm *experienced look again*
10:12 pm
firefly779

mmm, good watering info there
10:12 pm
stidmama

I have success with thyme, marjoram, rosemary (woody herbs) but less success with basil and parsley for some reason.
10:12 pm
firefly779

stid - i got my raspberries from my mom, and blackcaps from my mother in law ;)
10:13 pm
jesdraggon

Upsidedown hanging tomato planters
10:13 pm
firefly779

i hope to get boysenberries from my mom next year
10:13 pm
firefly779

i'm doing cilantro, parsley, and mint
10:13 pm
stidmama

and remember that fruit want consistent water... keep the soil moist but not soggy and never dry. Otherwise the fruit either don't develop well or drop off entirely. Trees are usually okay once they are established, but berries and leafy veggies are picky.
10:14 pm
stidmama

mmmm. cilantro. Keep the mint in pots... it WILL take over and send runners out into any adjacent soils. I will NEVER get rid of the chocolate mint (which I am now allergic to) in my lawn. Unless I dig the whole lawn and burn it. *sigh*
10:15 pm
firefly779

oh my! is spearmint different?
10:15 pm
stidmama

I used to have raspberries, but my neighbor accidentally falled some trees on them. Will replant, hopefully in the autumn.
10:16 pm
stidmama

nope. spearmint will spread. MINT spreads. end of story. *knowing nod* it creeps over, under and around traditional barriers like metal, brick, wood or open space. It's sneaky... but at least it smells nice!
10:17 pm
stidmama

In Virginia, my parents planted peppermint near the garbage cans so that area smelled better. A brilliant plan. LARGE stretches of pavement and houses in the way do seem to slow down its spread (somewhat)
10:17 pm
firefly779

i figured the kiddos would like to eat it - they munch the chives out in the flower beds, so this might freshen their breath after! LOL
10:18 pm
firefly779

it's a tall rectangular planter, on the patio, but i'll keep an eye on the stuff and keep it trimmed UP
10:22 pm
negativeneil

Yeah I bet stidmama. And we get some fierce heat here in summer. Not a lot of direct sun though... shaded by trees on the street.
10:24 pm
negativeneil

Tomatoes would be good to grow... we eat a lot of them. Wonder if bell peppers would do well in pots?
10:24 pm
firefly779

this grid is just not my friend today - i thought with the nearly 300 words it'd be fun, but it kind of isn't
10:24 pm

10:25 pm
negativeneil

Unless you go to farmer's markets.
10:25 pm
firefly779

mmm, fresh bell peppers are the BEST - my kids eat them like apples straight off the plant. i could see them in a pot...need a little fertilizer, lots of water
10:25 pm
firefly779

night jesdraggon
10:26 pm
stidmama

in the planter the mint should be okay, but watch for the stolons to show up nearby. They are easy to pull in soil that doesn't get walked on.
10:26 pm
stidmama

sweet dreams jes
10:26 pm
firefly779

the plants don't take up a ton of space either
10:26 pm
stidmama

neil, check territorial seeds for peppers, they have good advice on planting. I am thinking some of the smaller peppers might do really well in pots
10:27 pm
firefly779

well, the patio has a border of lava rock (for drainage from the roof) and then the lawn...
10:29 pm
stidmama

I bet your home is lovely firefly. So far, we still have the wood stoops that came with the house. And I have plans/dreams for little porches and sitting areas...
10:30 pm
firefly779

we made the roof overhang to cover the patio, so the entire back side of the house is covered patio - only thing is we're right above the wildlife refuge pond, which means mosquitoes...we don't sit on the patio past dusk :( lots of wasps during the day, so it can be tricky out there
