					6:02 am

					he was injured in one of the other races, talked about the excruciating pain -- boo hoo

					he fell, rode for another day, but I think he fractured his pelvia (not sure), but I always prefered his brother
				 
							
					6:08 am
					rubyfoo
					
					Andy is no gentleman
				 
							
					6:08 am
					doseffing
					
					 ... Lance is just too easy a target ... they can keep going at him and the results are so old that nothing can be proven (I hope) ... so until he sues somebody he's fair game

					 ... nope ... it's not there
				 
							
					6:09 am
					rubyfoo
					
					he was using EPO when I first startedf watching the Tour, but it wasn't illegal then.  I don't understand why storing up your own blood and then re-transfusing it should be illegal

					6:10 am

					6:11 am
					rubyfoo
					
					like those East German lady athletes of the 60's, all dead now, I think

					By the way, in case anyone is wondering why we had such a tiny grid today..."Someone" declared last night that he hoped we had a really small grid because he would be tied up with business all day. (And then, I think money changed hands). I won't say who that "someone" is, but his name starts with Ruru and ends with Rocks. : P

					I ac4/6 this grid no problem. It was easy to find th 5/12 words today.  Even though most don't need  it, I think a story of clues is a good id4/5 anyway.My hubby de6/21s Babble. He se7/32 everytime I babble. I always de 6/24 sarcasm in his voice when hubby talks about Babbleland Sometimes I have to hi 4/6 my babbling from him. But I do not give a di4/5 I will always babble. Husband wants to plant some se 4/5s on Farmville.  I am going to go sit on the se6/18 and watch some TV. Then I'm going to go jump into my sh 7/36 bed and go to sleep for the night. I will stay insi4/5 to babble on this websi4/4 tomorrow. I did not ed4/5 this story so there might be some errors.

					I was in Al-Anon when my son was on drugs (there wasn't a Narc-Anon that I could find back then).  And when we had my alcoholic brother here in 2007 while he was doing his "90 meetings in 90 days" thing; I went to Al-Anon and continued it for 2 years after that because of the help and support I got there (my family and DH's family both have lots of alcoholics)

					The consequences of me leaving would put my husband on the street and homeless with no medical insurance. I can't do that to him. I have to wait until he get a better job.  My husband would go into the deepest depression.

					probably put him down if nobody takes him this summer - can't see feeding him forever, when it means i'll not be able to support a rideable horse because i haven't enough pasture.
				 
							
					10:21 pm

					That is understanderable Jess. It is realistic and sad
				 
							
					10:21 pm

					stuff like this is why so many horse rescues are overwhelmed. *sigh*

					Can he find food on his own like if someone adopted him that had a large paddock?
				 
							
					10:23 pm

					That is why I am meeting with someone. It is just a consult
				 
							
					10:23 pm

					sure, but there are too many horses in rescue already; i can probably get a useable horse free, who would adopt a broken one.

					10:27 pm

					Min; I still use my daily  meditations as needed.  The book is called "courage to Change"  and the thing is that whatever happens; it's how you preceive the situation and your relationship that matters most.    (and I'll shut up now)

					It means an animal that is past its best by date - like a cow that is too much like a pet and the farmer can't let her go.

					10:36 pm
					stidmama
					
					how are you, phand?
				 
							
					10:36 pm
					stidmama
					
					brown rice usually holds up better than white rice
				 
							
					10:37 pm
					stidmama
					
					because the hull is mostly intact it stays together and doesn't mush
				 
							
					10:37 pm
					herinfernallady
					
					So it is meant to be crunchy?
				 
							
					10:37 pm

					Molly i am doing an experiment hence the brown rice
				 
							
					10:39 pm
					phandmd
					
					Indeed, Herin.  The goal of having children is to raise them into productive adults.  That she is!
				 
							
					10:39 pm
					MollyL
					
					I did a similar experiment Herin. The brown rice ended up in the trash. 
				 
							
					10:39 pm
					stidmama
					
					and yes, it tends to feel a lot crunchier than white rice.
				 
							
					10:39 pm

					jes, we have cedar waxwings coming in finally! they are usually only here for a short time (until the last of the elderberries are done).  I am sorry about your horse.
				 
							
					10:41 pm

					Thank you, Stid, I am thankful that I like the young man she married.  And thankful also, that he has a good job in San Diego.

					both, good things, indeed

					And, San Diego isn't such a bad place to visit...
				 
							
					10:43 pm
					stidmama
					
					phand, in a week the shrubs will look like a giant kinetic sculpture.  They will be covered in waxwings!  The first time it happened I was pretty worried, then I realized what was going on and enjoyed watching.  They are like little kids let loose in a room like a Willy Wonka factory!
				 
							
					10:43 pm

					Mmmmmmm Elderflowers are good
				 
							
					10:43 pm

					10:44 pm

					10:46 pm

					there are a few pics of the garden up at my website, phand -- my screenname.com  but I will have a few more up tomorrow; it's going to be sunny, and I have several new plants blooming that I haven't recorded yet.
				 
							
					10:46 pm

					oh, I will check it out!  Thanks
				 
							
					10:46 pm

					sleep sounds good, phand -- hope you have a wonderful rest of your week!

					LOL lady!  sometimes it feels that way, but he has been a fully fledged (legal) adult for well over a year.
				 
							
					10:48 pm

					Aww!  You have a german shepherd too!  What's his/her name?
				 
							
					10:48 pm
					phandmd
					
					duh, it's Lucky
				 
							
					10:48 pm
					phandmd
					
					how old?
				 
							
					10:49 pm
					stidmama
					
					:-)  he is...   9?  8?  about 8 I think. I can't remember how long ago we brought him home, he was almost 2 that summer.
				 
							
					10:50 pm
					phandmd
					
					lovely!  What is the story of how you got him?
				 
							
					10:51 pm
					stidmama
					
					He was being kept in a horse stall by the owners of the stable where Grant took lessons.  They were about to take him to the pound because the person they thought was going to buy him backed out.  I couldn't let a lovely boy like him go to the pound.  He was 1 year, 8 months old, and weighed only a little more than 50 pounds.  He was very skinny and very traumatized.
				 
							
					10:52 pm
					stidmama
					
					I never wanted a shepherd, but he is about the most beautiful boy in the world (imho)
				 
							
					10:52 pm
					phandmd
					
					aww, he was "lucky" to find you!  
				 
							
					10:52 pm
					phandmd
					
					I love GSDs
				 
							
					10:52 pm
					phandmd
					
					and he IS GORGEOUS!
				 
							
					10:53 pm
					stidmama
					
					indeed - he named himself, you know -- the stable owners called him "big dog"; I thought he looked like a Michaelangelo; but he wouldn't respond until we sat in a circle around him saying names.  He alerted every time we said "lucky"
				 
							
					10:54 pm
					phandmd
					
					interesting!
				 
							
					10:54 pm
					stidmama
					
					he's allergic to beef...  very expensive to feed a 90 lb dog on specialty food!  I didn't know these high-bred critters were so high-maintenance.  :-)
				 
							
							
					10:55 pm
					herinfernallady
					
					Awww Stid
				 
							
					10:55 pm

					I love the pic of your puppy --  looks pretty content
				 
							
					10:55 pm

					she is!  she is 3.5 now.
				 
							
					10:56 pm

					she does miss her girl when she is away at school though.
				 
							
					10:56 pm
					stidmama
					
					maybe you can help me, phand.  Lucky is VERY skittish with his paws, and so I don't trim his nails as often as they really need it (the first few years the vet had to sedate him to trim them).  Do you have any advice for how to get him to hold still?
				 
							
					10:56 pm
					herinfernallady
					
					Phan how old is the pup in yhour icon?
				 
							
					10:56 pm
					phandmd
					
					she is 3.5, Herin.
				 
							
					10:56 pm
					herinfernallady
					
					Stid you tried the food bribe?
				 
							
					10:57 pm
					stidmama
					
					Yes, Lucky will sit at the window and wait for the school busses.  Now the boys don't come home on the bus, but he still always hopes.  Grant usually stays longer in town to do taekwondo.  So whenever I can I let Lucky come with me to fetch his boy
				 
							
					10:57 pm
					stidmama
					
					food bribe?  as in, teach him to expect a treat when he gets his toes trimmed?
				 
							
					10:57 pm
					phandmd
					
					Herin, she was a less than a year in that pic
				 
							
							
					10:58 pm
					phandmd
					
					Jazz also doesn't like her nails clipped.  I try to get her when she is relaxed and I have lots of treats with me.
				 
							
					10:58 pm
					phandmd
					
					Every nail I clip, I give her lots of treats.  Seems to help.  I actually need to do her nails again.
				 
							
					10:58 pm
					herinfernallady
					
					Awww Phan cute. Stid. You pick up his paw in a non threatening manner - feed him a treat, do this for a while then get the scissors in hand then do the same thing, then do one nail and feed and leave him
				 
							
					10:59 pm
					stidmama
					
					I will try that, then.  I never had trouble with our lab when she needed trimming, and Buffy I just turned upside down on my lap to trim.
				 
							
					10:59 pm
					stidmama
					
					I got most of his front toes the other day, but need to do the back now.
				 
							
					10:59 pm
					stidmama
					
					brb, it's time for Lucky's "nine o'clocks"  
				 
							
					11:00 pm
					herinfernallady
					
					Maybe someone hit his feet that is why he doesn't like it
				 
							
					11:00 pm
					phandmd
					
					or he had a bad experience with clipping, someone got his quick.  That part always makes me nervous.
				 
							
					11:00 pm
					stidmama
					
					speaking of time...  
				 
							
					11:01 pm
					herinfernallady
					
					I need to trim the cats claws but I am so not game
				 
							
					11:01 pm
					stidmama
					
					yes, lady -- I am certain that is part of it.  He was severely traumatized as a young dog.  It took YEARS for him to be comfortable around Tom and our friends who are men.
				 
							
					11:01 pm
					herinfernallady
					
					I never understand people that hurt animals
				 
							
					11:02 pm

					neglect and abuse of animals and children really makes my blood boil...  and I cannot take them all in.  I wish I could, but.  I am stuck doing what little I can in the moment when I am with them.
				 
							
					11:03 pm
					stidmama
					
					anyway -- have to go get Grant from a friend's house.  will be back tomorrow, hopefully with some pictures.  (((hugs and happy thoughts for all)))  see you-all then!  *poof*
