1:10 am

negativeneil

Oh hey flosey. See some earlier section of the chog where I said I should thank you... and an even earlier section where I said what I said I should thank you for, only now I forget what I said that I said I should thank you for... oh, forget it. :P

negativeneil

Just accept my thanks. ;)

1:10 am

jillibus

the ej words

Yeah. That was it! Thanks jilli. :)

1:11 am

flosey

lol, you are most welcome - it's usually me asking for clues

1:11 am

negativeneil

I didn't ask. They were just given.

negativeneil

I'd have seen them when I paid more attention.

1:11 am

flosey

Still waiting.

rubyfoo

we planted them last week and had 3 sunny days

4:05 am

crosshair

we start stuff like that indoors and never plant before may 24th

4:06 am

rubyfoo

that, of course, is the received wisdom, but I've never claimed to be wise!

4:06 am

rubyfoo

that's like Binghamton, where it could snow in May

4:07 am

crosshair

wisdom is nothing but practicing perfection,doing the same mistakes over and over and over till i am perfect at messing up:)

4:09 am

4:09 am

rubyfoo

4:10 am

rubyfoo

we are having as much fun planning it as the actual trip!

4:10 am

crosshair

we had a farm up north once,where it was 15 min drive to a paved road and another 20 min just to get to the closest store

4:11 am

rubyfoo

4:11 am

5:12 am

sarah6girls

i did have 5 kittens but talked mum in to having two lol

5:12 am

crosshair

i mean our living room is not a cat palace filled with broken and rusting junk,but they are working on it

5:13 am

andrew in drag

rather you than me, Crossy! that sounds adorable, but I find keeping up with one little dog wears me out.

5:13 am

crosshair

our 6 year old cat hides in the bedroom all day now lol

5:13 am

crosshair

andrew,it is exactly like a young child who can just start to walk around and is getting into everything

5:14 am

crosshair

the wife and i sleep in shifts

5:15 am

crosshair

he is due to get fixed very shortly,maybe that will calm him down a tad

5:15 am

crosshair

lol,know it slowed me down for a few weeks when i got fixed ten years ago:))

5:15 am

andrew in drag

haha! I just have my little Schatzi...he has a taste for danger. Whenever I walk him he always tries to drag me towards the bad neighbourhoods.

5:16 am

crosshair

sure ,blame it on the pet

5:16 am

andrew in drag

hahaha! he's only a little chihuahua, but he's laughably determined.

5:17 am

crosshair

you need a dog like my brother had,a great big bull mastiff.thing is the size of a pony

5:18 am

crosshair

paws the size of a sandwich plate

5:18 am

andrew in drag

lol...but then it would fill up my whole flat, and I'd have nowhere to sleep :P

5:18 am

andrew in drag

that's why I got Schatzi. He's a pint-sized pup to fit in my pint-sized living space!

5:19 am

crosshair

why you sleep on the couch of course cause the dog stole your bed

5:19 am

andrew in drag

lol...I have no couch...would have to make a doggy mattress

5:20 am

crosshair

ugh 06:15,time to see where kitty has gone off to

5:21 am

andrew in drag

good luck ;) see you around!

5:21 am

crosshair

whew! calmly sitting on window bird watching

5:21 am

crosshair

small place also andrew

5:22 am

andrew in drag

as long as he is bird watching, and not bird stalking or bird eating ;)

5:22 am

crosshair

1100 sq feet,but at least i do not have to pack a lunch for a trip to the other end of the place

5:22 am

crosshair

inside cats only here andrew,we have a healthy coyote population

5:23 am

crosshair

they would love nothing better than a kitty snack

5:24 am

andrew in drag

lol Crossy! the smaller the better, if you ask me. I grew up with five sisters in a two-bedroom house...I couldn't handle a big place if I tried!

5:25 am

crosshair

indeed,son is older now and testing his wings,so we are getting rid of decades of crap and trying to live more minimalist

5:26 am

andrew in drag

haha! you do make me laugh. so irreverent :P

5:27 am

andrew in drag

we could use a little irreverence in the UK at the moment. too much jubilee.

5:27 am

crosshair

well you are young yet.you would not believe the junk that accumulates over 20-30 years.it is insane

5:28 am

crosshair

opened the closet the other day and hauled out 5! old video game systems.they are earmarked for the next yard sale

5:29 am

andrew in drag

true. now that I have my own place, I'm enjoying filling it up with kitsch!

5:30 am

crosshair

not to worry andrew,i just tend to ramble on about this and that and toss out my musings

5:31 am

crosshair

lol@ kitsch..we have more "dust collectors" per sq foot in this place...

5:31 am

andrew in drag

oh no, I find it entertaining! I live a very, very quiet life, so I get a real thrill from experiencing different people. I suppose I should get out more...!

5:33 am

crosshair

funny,i am just finishing up a 30 year stint in the public service industry,was always out there as it were.now i cannot wait to get in and surround myself with my own calm pleasures,my music ,my books,walks on the mountain

5:35 am

crosshair

now i take great delight in inclemant weather because now it is someone else out there getting frozen,or wet or baked in the searing heat and not me:)

5:35 am

crosshair

spent an hour sitting on the covered patio yesterday watching the rain pound down and smiling:)

5:35 am

andrew in drag

hahaha! we have a word for that in German, you know...Schadenfreude :P

5:36 am

crosshair

lol,i know the word

5:37 am

andrew in drag

there's nothing wrong with it. shameful joy might even be the best joy :P

5:37 am

andrew in drag

oops, I should change my flag back, now I'm home...

5:37 am

crosshair

ahh wheres home?

5:39 am

andrew in drag

ah, London is home for me now - I was visiting family in Germany recently though. It is quite a shocking place to see again though. It doesn't feel like home anymore, really. It's so bleak!

5:39 am

crosshair

sometimes you cannot go home again.the world moves on and we see with different eyes

5:40 am

crosshair

woah..that was nice and deep,best get a tea:)

5:40 am

andrew in drag

deep but true, Crossy...very good nugget of wisdom

5:41 am

rubyfoo

hello again

5:41 am

crosshair

5:41 am

crosshair

((ruby))

5:44 am

rubyfoo

5:47 am

andrew in drag

oh, I thought they were turning the Kodak plant into a waste disposal site...last I heard, anyway!

5:47 am

crosshair

5:47 am

5:50 am

rubyfoo

I just learned that my London relatives are moving back to NY

5:51 am

crosshair

5:51 am

andrew in drag

5:52 am

andrew in drag

I would like to travel more...I'm getting itchy feet. time to move on soon! I'm planning to country-hop again soon.

5:52 am

rubyfoo

I would go broke in Las Vegas -- Ruby loves to gamble

5:53 am

crosshair

seems even paradise can pale ruby.he says he like myself tower over the locals,and you never ever blend in.and there are customs and the different foods and the exotic birds yammering just outside your window every day at 4 am,and the 3 month rainy season where any little cut can lead to massive infection

5:54 am

andrew in drag

not to mention the insects!!

5:54 am

rubyfoo

never thought of it that way, crossy, but at leat I would feel tall (or at least avarage-sized)

5:55 am

crosshair

indeed!

5:55 am

crosshair

though living is very cheap there

5:55 am

rubyfoo

least*

5:55 am

crosshair

he had a house maid,when he asked her how much per hour she wanted and she said 2 dollars,he was so surprised he paid her 4 per hour

5:56 am

rubyfoo

I have become a fan of local bees, speaking of insects. We have beautiful VERY large ones called Bourdon, and when they come in the house, I have learned to rescue them and take them back outside. They are to beautiful to kill

5:56 am

crosshair

he lived like a king down there on his pay in u.s dollars

5:56 am

rubyfoo

just like France, LOL

5:56 am

rubyfoo

the USD is worth zippo

5:56 am

crosshair

lol,ruby,france is painfully expensive

5:57 am

rubyfoo

but, of course, London is even more expensive

5:57 am

rubyfoo

we were lucky to buy the house when the dollar was worth so much

5:57 am

crosshair

even here,we hear about those little eateries down by the eifel tower and the 17 dollar bowl of strawberries

5:57 am

rubyfoo

we could never have afforded it otherwise

5:58 am

rubyfoo

chez moi, crossy, you could eat strawberries for free until you turned totally pink!

5:59 am

crosshair

Introduced in the late 1960’s, flower-flavored PEZ was designed to appeal to the hippie generation—complete with a groovy, psychedelic dispenser. But even in the decade of free love, no love could be found for the flavor power of flowers.

6:02 am

rubyfoo

there used to be a violet-flavored candy which wasn't so bad, but then I was a hippie-dippy, too

6:03 am

crosshair

6:24 am

Anniebrook

bichon, Is it true CT has approved medical marijuana? I cannot believe it

6:24 am

hi Frances :)

6:28 am

sprite

never knew Toyotas grew on plants. Wow.

6:28 am

hokie carla

I'm okay at converting distances due to 5K running, but I had a hard time when we went to Canada with speeds. kmph v. mph

6:28 am

Frances

Oops! Hi sprite. Are you well?

6:29 am

hokie carla

luckily both are on the speedometer. ;-)

6:29 am

sprite

well enough, Frances. And you?

6:29 am

crosshair

lol hokie,just do not do 50mph in a 50kmp zone or you will get a ticket

6:29 am

Frances

Not too bad thanks. Hating this weather.#

6:29 am

sprite

I usually do it roughly... one mile = 1,5 km. More or less.

6:29 am

sprite

yeah... we want our sun back, don't we!

6:30 am

bichon

Euro has bad weather too?

6:30 am

crosshair

did you know that when we build cars for the U.S we put mph on the outside of the gauge,but here we put the kph on ihe outside

6:30 am

Frances

Sun back and a lot less rain.

6:30 am

bichon

Last Monday it was wicked hot here, over 90F

6:30 am

hokie carla

yes, I did notice that. makes sense, though.

6:31 am

sprite

very. We go up and down per day. One day 27 degrees (!) celcius and the next only 10. One day very sunny, next rain rain and more rain. My son is ill now. Severe cold, due to the quick changes and gotten himself drained in cold rain without a coat.

6:31 am

hokie carla

bichon, it was beautiful here Sat. and was supposed to be high 81 yesterday, but it felt like 91 to me.

6:31 am

bichon

I think our Toyotas have both gauges

6:32 am

crosshair

same here sprite up and down like a toilet seat

6:32 am

sprite

indeedydeed, crossy. :)

6:32 am

basically,if you do not like the current weather/temps,just wait 5 minutes and it will change

6:33 am

ej5/22 I think

6:33 am

hokie carla

it's about to get really hot here and stay that way all summer. :-(

6:34 am

hokie carla

flip side, though, we have been swimming in our pool off & on since March.

6:34 am

sprite

we could do with a bit more sun and warmth here.

6:35 am

hokie carla

7:35am and 63 degrees. No idea what that is in celsius. :-)

6:35 am

bichon

that sounds nice hokie

6:35 am

xeiluj

And here, four days off and nothing but rain!!

6:35 am

Uncover

record heat here in Utah. May reach 100 F today

6:36 am

hokie carla

high is supposed to be 85.

6:36 am

sprite

that is about 17 celcius. Not very hot.

6:36 am

sprite

ouch Uncover, that is not pleasant!

6:36 am

Anniebrook

and here it will not get over 60 degrees today

6:36 am

hokie carla

ugh, uncover - stay inside!

6:37 am

bichon

but it's a dry heat. Here in CT when it gets hot it's a steam bath

6:37 am

Anniebrook

I have been trying to find the an8 for ages..anyone have a clue?

6:37 am

sprite

85 F is about 30 C

6:37 am

hokie carla

I've heard both arguments for that, bichon.

6:37 am

sprite

not yet, sorry Annie

6:38 am

Anniebrook

but thanks, sprite

6:38 am

hokie carla

It also gets very steamy in NC. Humidity only 55% today, though.

6:38 am

hokie carla

they're calling for a thunderstorm tonight anyway, though.

6:38 am

sprite

oh... there it is. It ends in a place, or a web page.

6:38 am

Anniebrook

I finally found it...ask and ye shall find

6:39 am

bichon

You probably have central AC hokie. We only have window units

6:39 am

sprite

lol... you and me both, Annie! Thank you for telling me it was there.

6:39 am

hokie carla

yep, thank goodness

6:39 am

Uncover

It is not that it is so terribly hot, it is that it is so hot this early in the year. We normally do not get temp like this until the end of July

6:39 am

Anniebrook

thanks sprite and youre welcome

6:39 am

sprite

climate changes all over the world, Uncover.

6:40 am

hokie carla

when I was a kid in the mountains of SW Virginia, we did not have AC. We hung out in the unfinished basement most of the summer and loved it when the bookmobile came.

6:40 am

Uncover

yep, all the time. then, just to make it worse, they post grids full of u and e

6:41 am

sprite

almost nobody here has AC. We would only ne4 it for a couple of weeks a year. Our car has it though (first time we have one with AC) and when it is very hot, it is a blessing.

6:41 am

hokie carla

but sometimes now the AC chills me to the bone. I will go out in the garage to get something and think how good it feels out there.

6:41 am

sprite

lol Uncover... yeah, very vowely grid today.

6:41 am

Uncover

We cool our home here in Salt Lake with a swamp cooler, works very well

6:42 am

hokie carla

I have a friend heading out tomorrow to Sandy, UT, for a few weeks. I hope her family has AC or even a swamp cooler. ;-)

6:43 am

Uncover

wow, that is my town, and I would guess they will be okay

6:44 am

hokie carla

I always rem. it because it was the town in Big Love.

6:44 am

sprite

aww

6:45 am

bichon

Ah, yes, Sandy. Remember Big Love.

6:45 am

bichon

How does a swamp cooler work?

6:45 am

sprite

cools the home, but turns it into a swamp in the process.

6:46 am

Uncover

you trickle water down pads, and a fan inside sucks air through the pads

6:46 am

hokie carla

I think I have read about it before, but probably on wiki, so it may or may not be true.

6:46 am

hokie carla

yes, that's pretty much what I read.

6:46 am

Uncover

the evaporating water will lower the temp by quite a bit

6:47 am

bichon

I see it's only for areas with low humidity. Definitely not for here

6:47 am

hokie carla

anybody have the last i?

6:47 am

hokie carla

never mind

6:47 am

hokie carla

how about the other i?

6:47 am

sprite

lol... yes I do... and so do you now

6:47 am

bichon

I'm looking for it too

6:47 am

Uncover

Right Bichon, only low humidity places get much use

6:48 am

hokie carla

never mind again

6:48 am

sprite

they mean the same thing

6:48 am

hokie carla

I should just ask and then find all of them.

6:48 am

sprite

hahahaha hokie!

6:49 am

hokie carla

6:49 am

8:47 am

rubyfoo

from being an auntie or from life in general?

8:48 am

rubyfoo

phantom: dancer

8:48 am

hurshy

no, auntie-ism not stunning. i am stunned because i applied for a job that i thought they would not even consider me for, but one of my bosses just told me that they called him for a rec and told him that they are likely to interview me.

8:48 am

rubyfoo

Hello

9:03 am

hego

a rare BR sighting. Hi there.

9:03 am

hurshy

i just wondered cause we saw a NZ contestant on a cooking show and my husband referred to him as australian and i was like, um, no, and he said it really didn't make a difference.

9:03 am

grannyrose

new zealanders speak with a more english accecnt to us..a bit bewildering at first, then you get used to it

9:03 am

hurshy

i wonder if NZ people mind more, because their country is smaller.

9:04 am

hego

maybe not to him Hursh.

9:04 am

hurshy

i just feel like NZ people i have known in the past did mind, and this contestant had said specifically that he had never cooked with barramundi BECAUSE it was an australian fish.

9:06 am

grannyrose

hurshy, having met groovy kiwi and her partner, no, i personally don't have a problem. plus my son's mother-in-law is a kiwi...absolutely no conflict there

9:06 am

hurshy

so it's not like the french and the english :)

9:07 am

grannyrose

nah...we are too close....besides we speak the same language, just with a different accent

9:08 am

hurshy

kiwi is a fun word

9:09 am

hego

is it a maori word?

9:10 am

hurshy

yes

9:10 am

grannyrose

lol, refers to a native bird of new zealand. they probably call us koalas, or roos, or platypi. * makes no difference to me, personally*

7:30 pm

rururocks

7:30 pm

Minveryork

Miss playing tennis. Used to play when I was in college

7:30 pm

mixi6

we were missing a couple of people. It was supposed to be doubles.

7:31 pm

mixi6

I never got the ball over the net until age 35.

7:31 pm

Minveryork

Well good thing at least two people showed up to play

7:31 pm

rururocks

I still don't get the ball over the net..

7:32 pm

Jillyjill

Oh ruru...do I want to go there?

7:32 pm

I started lessons at age 45. Took for about 5 years.

Well, I've got the 1st draft of my story done. Need to sleep on it and let brain refine it. Will do 2nd edit when I get up and probably 3rd and final when I type it up.

7:47 pm

Jillyjill

Wow Jacq...I need your initiative!

7:48 pm

Jillyjill

Well, mine is homework....no $$ for reward...

Bugsaw

8:05 pm

Jillyjill

Hi there bugsaw!

8:05 pm

Jillyjill

((hugs))

8:06 pm

stidmama

Jac, my very dear friend! how goes your garden? I was walking yesterday and there were ripe salmonberries in our yard down by the road -- they are a native plant, gorgeous pink blossoms, and the nicest yellow berries, like a raspberry, but not as much flavor.

8:06 pm

stidmama

BUGS!!! (((bugs hugs)))

8:06 pm

Bugsaw

how close are you to finishing?

8:06 pm

Bugsaw

hey stid. Are you still having fun at school?

8:08 pm

stidmama

LOL mostly, bugs -- had a very difficult class last week at one school and today had its challenges, but mostly I do okay and the kids do okay and even have a little fun and learn a bit. I am fortunate that in most schools the adminsitrators are very willing to support the "guest teachers"

8:09 pm

Jacula

Hiya Stid. My garden's doing very well so far, except for a large part of the very big pergola collapsing 2 nights ago. Luckily, all the rotten top beams went into the middle and did no more damage than breaking a plastic pot and a plastic table. The greenhouse, the sheds and the plants weren't hit. Still can't believe how lucky we are that no one was standing under it at the time.

8:09 pm

Bugsaw

I had another bad day today and one of the teachers who has been teaching since forever told me they were the worst set of kids he had ever had to teach. He was so kind to give me permission to spend the last 3 weeks in the LA room. YAY for him.

8:10 pm

Bugsaw

oh yuck Jac. What a job that will be to repair

8:10 pm

Jacula

Stid - haven't heard of salmonberries, but they sound nice. My raspberry canes are multiplying and doing very well.

8:11 pm

stidmama

Oh, I am so glad no one was hurt -- and it sounds as if you can at least recover part of the structure for reuse. I always think of your lovely garden and hope it is doing well. I will load a pic of the salmonberries "toute suite!"

8:11 pm

Jillyjill

---> sparkles<---

8:11 pm

stidmama

Bugs, there is a rash of "this class is the hardest ever" going around -- different ages at different schools, but every school seems to have at least one group of kids that are particularly challenging to keep safe and productive.

8:11 pm

stidmama

YAY jilly!!!!

8:11 pm

Jacula

Well done Jillyjill!

8:12 pm

Bugsaw

YAY Jilly

8:12 pm

Jacula

Bug - it'll get done in the fullness of time.

8:12 pm

Jillyjill

*half bow*...not too proud of the few I struggled with...

8:13 pm

Bugsaw

I think the biggest problem is that the kids are done emotionally with school and now is when the teachers are turning on the juice to get things done. It is a lot of pressure

8:14 pm

Jacula

Re the bad class of the school - there's always one and always has been. It's usually either 3rd year high school or 5th year high school. Can't remember the modern way school years are counted now. Kids between 13-16.

8:15 pm

Bugsaw

those are the ages I work with all the time Jac. 14 years are definately the worst. They think they are so grown up so they want more independence than is safe.

8:16 pm

Jillyjill

Yep Jacq....I term that age group "toddlers on hormones"....

8:17 pm

Jacula

Good description, Jilly!

8:19 pm

stidmama

yep, that's my most challenging age, bugs -- LOL it's when the BOYS in the group start to catch up to the girls, physically.

8:19 pm

Jacula

Science has proved that kids that age can't actually help themselves. Their emotional and cognitivebrain parts are evolving at different levels and don't match up with their body growth or their flood of hormones.

8:20 pm

Jacula

The clumsiness thing comes into play then for the same reason.

8:21 pm

Bugsaw

try telling akid that Jacula. They know everything. One kid in Grade 9 English class told me,"I know I am supposed to write a paragraph but I don't do paragraphs."

8:21 pm

Jacula

Boys are about three years behind girls intellectually and emotionally.

8:21 pm

Bugsaw

so I suggested that we start with a sentence or two and he said he didn't do sentences either.

8:21 pm

Jillyjill

LOL bugs...I can hear that one!

8:22 pm

stidmama

What did he end up doing, then?

8:23 pm

Jacula

Bug - I have a 17-year-old here, not my own daughter but my stepdaughter. Unfortunately, due to things in her past she's a bit wonky and is anything between 7-14 intellectually, but her body tells her she's older.

8:23 pm

stidmama

Jac, I loaded a new icon

8:23 pm

Jacula

stid - I was going to ask about that, too. Did he add a word or two at a time?

8:24 pm

Bugsaw

He got the talk about how to play the game. You can't play soccer using baseball rules even if you want to so, just in English class we have to do sentences and paragraphs if that is the assignment.

8:24 pm

Jacula

Stid - I see your new icon and it looks familiar, except I've seen them with red spikey cases.

8:24 pm

stidmama

good for you!

8:24 pm

Bugsaw

there is more to the talk but he got the gist and we did it, one sentence at a time until he had a paragraph. It just takes forever!!

8:25 pm

stidmama

Bugs, you're a real pro. *happy friend smile* He will never know how much your help has meant in his life (but we know...)

8:25 pm

Jacula

It's hard work, isn't it, Bug? Teenagers are a trial!

8:25 pm

Jillyjill

AND, he knows you care!

8:26 pm

Bugsaw

Only 3 more weeks for me Jacula and then retirement for me! Only grandchildren teens and they are so much easier to love

8:27 pm

Jacula

I thinks that's the thing, Stid and Jilly. You might not think you 'care' when someone cares for you, but you do, and you remember them for caring.

8:27 pm

Jacula

Bug - you might not say that if you were dealing with our 17-yea-old right now.

8:28 pm

Jacula

But, I do understand, Bug, that's you can only take that smarmy 'I know it all, old person!' look so many times before you want to bounce a housebrick off the back of their heads.

8:29 pm

stidmama

YES! I got NBT by myself! :-)

8:29 pm

stidmama

also NBS. now working on halfway...

8:29 pm

Bugsaw

that is only because she is not a GRANDchild. It is SO much easier when you are not the parent. Ifelt such a sense of responsiblity when I was the parent. As a grandparent I just feel that I am reinforcing the values the parents are feeling responsible about imparting.

8:29 pm

stidmama

Tom is making turkey meatballs for our spaghetti today... I got the ingredients ready before I sat down, and he is doing the cooking while I have my feet up.

8:30 pm

stidmama

I would love to be a grandparent, but sometimes I don't think that I will live through the parenting state. *sigh*

8:31 pm

Jillyjill

Good job Stid!

8:33 pm

Jacula

I'm not a grandparent yet but haven't forgotten seeing both sets of grandparents fall in love with their first grandchild (my son) when they first set eyes on him. As for it being easier when you are not the parent, even if you are the step parent, I'm not so sure.

8:33 pm

wvteach

I LOVE being a grandparent - just spent the day with the two youngest (1 1/2 and 6 years) and enjoy having them right here in town where I see them every week at least

8:34 pm

stidmama

those are good ages, teach! Exhausting, but good!

8:34 pm

Jillyjill

Sometimes they are so much easier to deal with if one can take a step back...but much easier said than done!

8:34 pm

Bugsaw

well said, Jilly

8:35 pm

mcurlschool

good evening my friends

8:35 pm

wvteach

yes, i am always exhausted but love my days with them. Had the 6 year old at the church picnic last night. The older one (just turnede 14 ) is off on a mission trip with the church youth group

8:35 pm

Jacula

At present, step's Dad isn't speaking to her and wants her out the minute she reaches 18. I can see that she's been damaged by the years with her weird mother and still want to help, even if I am disgusted with her right now. Rock/hard place? I'm between them!

8:35 pm

stidmama

hello mcurl! soggy wet and gray in your neck of the woods, too?

8:35 pm

Jillyjill

Hi there mcurls!

I've been trying to change my icon photo and it wont switch.....guess I've had that darn plane for to many years and it's permanently adhered!

8:36 pm

stidmama

yep. I despair of lovely sweet native blackberries this year -- they are on the vines and want to ripen, but it's not sunny enough for sweetness.

8:36 pm

stidmama

um.... what's the issue, do you think?

8:37 pm

Jillyjill

I am having the same problem mcurl...takes several days for the change to occur...

8:37 pm

Hi mccurl. I see a cutie with a hat

8:37 pm

stidmama

mcurl, I see a sweetie pie, too!

8:38 pm

mcurlschool

yep that's the new one. I'm not seeing it yet. That would be Miss Paige in cousin Jordan's tiger hat

8:38 pm

stidmama

did you try refreshing the browser?

8:38 pm

mcurlschool

nope not yet.

8:38 pm

stidmama

only problem is that now I shall not know who you are by your icon! LOL

8:38 pm

stidmama

that is a cute tigger hat, though.

8:38 pm

mcurlschool

sorry. Figured that since son is no longer in the AF that I would need to switch!

8:39 pm

8:39 pm

I can hear the magpies scolding outside now, defending their nest again. Probably a cat or a fox on the path below. Time I went to bed and let my brain work on refining that story I'm hoping to sell. And thanks, Jillyjill for what you said.

8:40 pm

stidmama

probably best to get some sleep before sun-up, Jac! (((hugs))) good to see you and talk with you a little. I have missed chatting with you.

8:40 pm

Jillyjill

Niters jacq...hope you sleep well!

8:40 pm

stidmama

the cake creations are pretty amazing... might drum up some business for her, too...

8:41 pm

Jillyjill

mcurl...I still see the plane, I closed and reopened babble...I am using babble expert...are you?

8:42 pm

mcurlschool

yes I am using babble expert. I popped out of babble and even restarted my computer and I still see the crazy plane. Oh well......

8:43 pm

mcurlschool

The upcoming one is R2D2 for Jordan's class end of the year party (teacher is a star wars fan)

8:44 pm

oh, I hope you will post a pic of that!

Jillyjill

definitly! how cute!

8:45 pm

Jillyjill

Mccurl, I just opened regular babble and icons are changed...must be a glitch in babble expert...wait a day or so and it'll have changed

8:46 pm

mcurlschool

she did a reading corner called "Death Star reading cafe" Complete with some storm troopers and a replica of the Death Star. Outside the classroom door is Yoda; and on a reminder board to see 3 before the teacher is C3PO; I hear that Darth Vader is next!

11:53 pm

I changed my icon yesterday -- see it in my profile but not in the chatbox. I've tried it with both babble fireworks forever and the new expert version.

11:53 pm

cosdem

11:53 pm

cybernan

Hi cos -- hope the thoughts were good ones!

11:53 pm

cosdem

i saw on tv they are airing "hatfields and mccoys" on lifetime on wed/thurs/fri and thought maybe if you had that channel you could get to see it

11:53 pm

cosdem

well im pretty sure it was you who said you missed it.

11:54 pm

Uneaixoise

<<< just changed my icon -- no prob

11:54 pm

cybernan

We will be visiting the kids then, so I will miss it again!

11:55 pm
