not quite half but almost

half way now
5:59 am

... pushing three quarters ... but they're pushing back
5:59 am
rubyfoo

your days must be even longer than ours, crossy. I love June for that reason
!
5:59 am
rubyfoo

brace those feet, dose!
6:00 am
crosshair

we are at our full solstice now ruby,start seeing first light just after 5 am and have lisght till almost 9:30 pm
6:00 am
rubyfoo

here it is still (barely) light until 11PM and is light at 5AM
6:00 am
rubyfoo

but it changes very fast
6:00 am
crosshair

makes up for winter days in january when it is light at 9 am and dark at 4:45 pm
6:01 am
rubyfoo

I thought you were further north, but maybe it's partly a question of time zones.....
6:01 am
rubyfoo

that's like here, the winter, that is
6:01 am
rubyfoo

in the US, living in Miami, I never realy noticed
6:01 am
doseffing

... nope ... people forget just how far south Canada comes ... and just how far north Europe is
6:01 am
crosshair

not sure..but this is as good as it gets for us daylight wise
6:02 am
rubyfoo

true, dose, but I love these long days, especially after our dark and rainy and cold spring
6:02 am
crosshair

the days are long and fine,50-60 at night 65-75 in day and you feel like there is time to do everything before the sun goes down;))
6:02 am
rubyfoo

AND the Tour de France starts on Saturday! yayay
6:03 am
doseffing

... Toronto is on about the same latitude as southern France ... Sudbury which is well north of Crossy is on the same latitude as London England ...
6:03 am
rubyfoo

I am rooting for the one Canadian: Hejdesdal
6:03 am
doseffing

... yeah but Ryder can't win it as well as the Giro
6:03 am
rubyfoo

{sp??}
6:04 am
crosshair

sudbury is 1 hour 45 min drive north of me and i am 2.5 hours north of toronto
6:04 am
rubyfoo

I am hoping!
6:04 am
doseffing

... close enough
6:04 am
rubyfoo

or Cadel again
6:04 am
rubyfoo

I was happy that Andy, the whiner, wont participate!
6:04 am
doseffing

... most likely
6:05 am
doseffing

... didn't know that ... I was figuring that he was the front runner
6:05 am
doseffing

... seeing as Alberto C. is out
6:05 am
rubyfoo

he was injured in one of the other races, talked about the excruciating pain -- boo hoo
6:06 am
rubyfoo

and yay to Alberto being out -- he was my least favorite
6:06 am
rubyfoo

now if they would just leave Lance alone.....
6:06 am
rubyfoo

Lance is my hero!
6:07 am
doseffing

... I was wondering what happened to Andy in the Giro ... he just never got going ... and then disappeared ... I missed that he had dropped out
6:07 am
rubyfoo

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
6:08 am
rubyfoo

pelvia*
6:08 am
rubyfoo

pelvis* {3 is a charm}
6:08 am
doseffing

... careful ... they'll stick that in the grid ... it's probably a latin plural
6:09 am
doseffing

... 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
6:09 am
rubyfoo

dangerous, maybe, but so what?
6:10 am
doseffing

... well supposedly sport is good for you ...
6:10 am
doseffing

... what's the point in being a temporary hero if you're dead at 45
6:10 am
rubyfoo

I used to be a runner, but never doped LOL
6:10 am
rubyfoo

but if so, it's his choice
6:11 am
rubyfoo

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

... but it's the example that is set for "the youth"
6:12 am
rubyfoo

I can't even tell my son how to stretch..."the youth" don't listen
6:12 am
doseffing

... we're a bit sensitive in Canada ... too many hockey players getting concussions ... and committing suicide withing five years of their careers ending
6:12 am

morning all!
6:14 am
doseffing

... I've got one student who was locked out of the Canadian National Women's team after her eighth concussion ... the Swede's kicked her out too ... and the American Colleges all dropped her like a hot potato ... ... she was 16
6:14 am
rubyfoo

the concussions issue is different; they don't choose to get concussions and it is a horrible scandal
6:14 am
uusue2

holy cow, dos, that is sad, and scary!
6:14 am
rubyfoo

{{sue}}
6:14 am
doseffing

... but they choose to play the game and the concussion is all a part of the game
6:14 am
doseffing

... so the game is bad for them
6:14 am
rubyfoo

I was just reading about female soccer players in high school who are at risk of concussions from heading the ball
6:15 am
crosshair

lance is my hero,we had the same cancer and we both kicked it ass
6:15 am
rubyfoo

AMEN, crossy!
6:15 am
doseffing

... we've got lots of studies up here that indicate a concussion will likely cost the kid a year at school because they lose the ability to concentrate
6:15 am

that is so horrible, dose. Puppy almost gave me one last night; he crashed into my head at full speed! 45 lbs of dog and dopy nel on the grass!
6:17 am

"killed by a puppy crash!"
6:17 am

he usually stops short, but it was definitely a hit-and-run
6:18 am
doseffing

... my kid received a concussion in a dance rehearsal and barely got started at university this past September ... it was really hard work to catch up the time lost

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

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.

Big news in our family is that our DIL went into the hospital for psych reasons volunarily this afterneeon! We'll have our grandson for "several days" (what-ever that means); but this is a big decision on her part. I hope and pray that they help her.

Nef, I'm glad to hear that your daughter-in-law is trying to get help. That is a good thing. I will keep her in my good thoughts.
10:09 pm

I wish my husband would get help for him problem. He is a severe alcoholic, however, he refuses to admit it. Tough to live with. Alcoholism runs througout his family though.
10:10 pm
Nef

thanks,jes, herin, and Molly. She needs all the help she can get. My grandson is concerned, but his perception of the hospital is that both me and Papa went to the hospital and got better.
10:10 pm

Oh (((Min))). I know that must be hard for you to live with. I will keep you in my good thoughts too.

My birth father died a broken man. At a young age too. Alcohol and gambling did him in. I found this out recently and it isn't a wonder I don't really drink or gamble
10:11 pm

Anyway,going back to lefties,I can list all of the actors and actresses who are left-handed. Julia Roberts, Anne Heche, Kelly Sullivan just to name a few.

(((Min)) Please join Al-Anon if you haven't already done so. It's probably the best support that you can get for yourself. Whether he admits it or not; you need to take care of yourself and not get sucked into that either (guilt, enabling, alcohol, etc)

10:17 pm

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.
10:20 pm
jesdraggon

found it
10:20 pm
herinfernallady

Are you going to keep him or PTS if he is in pain
10:21 pm
jesdraggon

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
herinfernallady

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

he's only 14, so that could be another 20 years of feeding a non-rideable, non-adoptable horse.

Min, that will hold you hostage in this relationship for a long time. Maybe you can talk to someone about other options. I'm wishing the best for the both of you.
10:22 pm
jesdraggon

stuff like this is why so many horse rescues are overwhelmed. *sigh*
10:22 pm
herinfernallady

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

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

sure, but there are too many horses in rescue already; i can probably get a useable horse free, who would adopt a broken one.
10:23 pm
herinfernallady

Min you have to do what you need to do in a non judmental way.
10:24 pm

That's good Min. Do what you can in do-able doses. Just remember that how you feel counts in all this.
10:24 pm

herinfernallady

What the lawn ornament coment?
10:26 pm
Minveryork

yes
10:26 pm

means he makes your pasture look pretty but isn't good for much else, min
10:27 pm
Nef

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)
10:27 pm
herinfernallady

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.
10:27 pm
Minveryork

Oh yes that is true. But he says do not appreciate anything
10:27 pm

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

So it is meant to be crunchy?

Indeed, Herin. The goal of having children is to raise them into productive adults. That she is!
10:39 pm

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
phandmd

I like brown rice.

phand, congrats on your daughter's marriage -- it's rough letting go, isn't it? Our elder son just has moved out (for the first time), but at least it's local.
10:40 pm

Molly I am hopping that isn't the case
10:40 pm
stidmama

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
phandmd

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.
10:41 pm
stidmama

both, good things, indeed
10:41 pm
phandmd

I have only seen cedar waxwings once, it was such a thrill!
10:42 pm
phandmd

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
herinfernallady

Mmmmmmm Elderflowers are good
10:43 pm
stidmama

I have never been to San Diego
10:43 pm
stidmama

but DR lives there, and so does tor (I think) so it can't be all bad.
10:43 pm
phandmd

me either! But I will go soonish
10:43 pm
phandmd

I would love to see that!
10:44 pm

Stid has stidkid senior moved out?
10:44 pm
stidmama

I will try to get some video this year, phand -- the berries aren't all ripe yet.
10:44 pm
stidmama

pretty much, lady -- I am trying to decide how much of his stuff to shift so I can shift some of the "family clutter" in.
10:45 pm
phandmd

sounds great!
10:45 pm
herinfernallady

Were did Stidkid Senior go? Wasn't he only ten last week?
10:45 pm
phandmd

Well, I am thinking it might be time to hit the hay.
10:46 pm
stidmama

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
phandmd

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

sleep sounds good, phand -- hope you have a wonderful rest of your week!
10:47 pm
stidmama

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

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
phandmd

yikes!
10:55 pm
herinfernallady

Awww Stid
10:55 pm
stidmama

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

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

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
10:57 pm
phandmd

Stid.
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
stidmama

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*
11:03 pm
stidmama

and thanks for the trimming advice... *fades out*
11:03 pm

good night then.
