12:44 pm
firefly779

i think NBT is a feat today stid
12:45 pm
stidmama

good for her, firefly! I had thought I was done with those donations because there was so much gray starting with the last one, but since then the hair growing back isn't as gray... so I might have one more donation in me in a couple of years.
12:45 pm
lbdawger

you can do it, Firefly.
12:45 pm
stidmama

It's a good feeling, knowing a child out there will be a little more comfortable just being a kid.

locks of love firefly?
12:49 pm
firefly779

lillian - yes, it's a place to donate ponytails of 10 inches or longer and they make hair pieces (prostheses, not wigs, they stay on better than wigs) for kids with hair loss, usually due to alopecia (sp)
12:51 pm
lilliann

what a brilliant idea, and how lovely of your daughter to donate her hair
12:51 pm
firefly779

my daughter has never had more than an eensy trim to her hair, and only two of those, since birth! She's finally tired of the long hair, despite being a fan of "mermaid hair" (french braiding while wet, sleeping on it, then undoing it for the waves the next morning).
12:52 pm
lilliann

i've never heard of anything like that here
12:52 pm
firefly779

thank you lillian - it was my idea really, when she said it was time to cut it short
12:52 pm
stidmama

what fun, firefly -- well, she can grow it long again, it only takes a couple years.
12:53 pm
firefly779

it is a US based business, but I'm not sure if they would care or not about a long distance donation ;) you just would pay more in shipping it to them I suppose
12:54 pm
firefly779

yes Stid, I am hoping she isn't upset when it's done, but she's been begging to cut it for months, so maybe it's a sign she understands (like I said, her whole life she's had this long hair, never had it cut).
12:54 pm
lilliann

when my friends and i were about 14 we'd plait our hair in tiny plaits and then sleep on them and have frizzy hair the next day
12:54 pm
firefly779

Her older sister has short hair, and has always preferred it that way since about 3.
12:55 pm
lbdawger

as long as you don't make a big deal of how short it is, your daughter will love the short hair. remind her how fast it will dry and how much fun it will be to watch it grow again.
12:55 pm
stidmama

When my hair is long and I braid it, it stays wet for days. *sigh* I don't mind long hair, but in our climate it's just so hard to keep clean.
12:55 pm
firefly779

lillian, indeed! We just do two french braids so it isn't too tight of a wave. :)
12:56 pm
stidmama

so. I am NBT, NBS and halfway. I should get my sorry posterior in gear and get some more work done.
12:56 pm
firefly779

lbd - her biggest concern with it long was the tangles, so hopefully that is abated with the shorter cut :)
12:56 pm
lilliann

it's pouring down with rain here and my road is now a river, i'm hoping i'm not going to get flooded.i'll have to go and put a compost bag infront of the front door.i could do with my daughter's help but she is horse riding and then stoppiong at her grandad's for the night.bbs
12:56 pm

I used to snorkle in the Caribbean... that was 40 years ago now. *sigh* I miss it.
2:56 pm
lilliann

we could live in jamaica katie.with hubby being self employed and working majority of the year, we can't always book early.we never get a summer holiday now because that is his busiest time. we always had 2-3 holidays a year now it's every christmas
2:56 pm
KatieMcG

ahhh good job you clarified, I was trying to work out how you could cheat
2:57 pm
lilliann

aye, you can't complain about my 2 trips to jamaica with all the hols you're having this year katie..lol
2:57 pm
lilliann

i can't believe a holiday went up £1000 in 2 days...it's disgusting!
2:58 pm
KatieMcG

lol lillian it was Ata's 2 Kenyas I was referring to but you are right we are very lucky
2:58 pm

2:59 pm
lilliann

i wish i could go to kenya once :)
2:59 pm
KatieMcG

I know I felt awful, they are still coming. Seemingly we had a discount of £1000 rather than it going up, not sure how that is any different though
2:59 pm
72 Temple Owl

ata, how long is the flight for you?
2:59 pm
KatieMcG

Crete in a week for 10 days then Mexico for 2 weeks at Christmas
3:00 pm

3:00 pm
Atalante

3:00 pm
lilliann

3:00 pm
stidmama

and this is after the trip to Niagara and NYC, katie!
3:01 pm
stidmama

I bet you could, lilliann -- we'll put waterwings on your wheelchair, and instead of racing stripes we'll attach little under-water propellers.
3:02 pm
lilliann

lmao stid
3:02 pm
Atalante

there are lots of diving centres who specialise foe people with disabilities, water is great and floaty
3:02 pm
lilliann

i can just imagine it now :)
3:02 pm
KatieMcG

I know stid. We do the pay the price in other ways because we have just had to replace the kitchen as the oven died and had to do the whole thing ourselves as we couldn't afford to get anyone in. It took us 4 weeks of evening and weekends and nearly killed us
3:03 pm
lilliann

i can swim, but i can't go under water as i can't get water in my ears as i get dizzy.ear plugs help but aren't great
3:03 pm
KatieMcG

Loving the image of waterwings and under-water propellers
3:03 pm
stidmama

what about a diving helmet, lilliann?
3:03 pm
72 Temple Owl

wow kaite! it seems for US travel is sky high right now if you are flying
3:04 pm
Atalante

I did want to come over to Oregon, but the flight prices are ridiculous
3:04 pm
stidmama

I know Katie -- I read of your troubles... I am dreading re-doing our kitchen. It needs it now, but I need to earn serious money before we can afford to do that.
3:04 pm
stidmama

Yes Atalante, it's crazy at the moment. Well, the next time you come, REALLY want to see you -- missed you twice in a row!
3:04 pm
lilliann

that wouldn't help as i would get pressure in my ears and head. i get dizzy flying when we take off and land because of the pressure in the plane.it is fine once we even out.
3:05 pm
KatieMcG

Mexico seems to have come down in price but everywhere else has gone up we do very little else other than pay for holidays lol
3:05 pm
Atalante

definitely! I'm just waiting for the stupid prices to come down!
3:05 pm
periwinkle

Hi there Ata, so nice to see you!!
3:06 pm
Atalante

hi peri :) actually you're the reason I popped in today!
3:06 pm
stidmama

oh, I understand, lilliann -- unless it's a really really long way, I don't even use elevators.
3:06 pm
KatieMcG

I haven't checked the US prices for a while as we are not coming back until 2013
3:06 pm

3:07 pm
stidmama

Okay, Grant is going to help me with this first person shooter game. I am really good at moving around and finding things, but I am really awful at actually doing the shooting bits. LOL So he sits with me and when I get too flustered, he takes over.
3:07 pm

i use to love snakes jmc.when i was in the infants and about5/6 i had a female python around my neck,we were told she was 20 foot long and she wrapped herself around my little body with the two zoo people holding her and she was lovely and i stroked her, but when my ex husband found snakes in our compost heap and chased me arounfd the garden with one, i've never liked them since.it had a red v on its head and when a friend went through our compost heap we hads some with black and some with red v's....if i see a snake now i'm doing wheelies and leaving dust in my wake..lol

5:48 pm
crosshair

and password the flash key with a easy to remember pw
5:48 pm
jmcnrick

i created a list in yahoo under my name in contacts. . . it all runs together and most is in a code only i would understand like homeaa so that no matter where i am and how long it has been i can find my password
5:48 pm
jmcnrick

the list has gotten really long
5:49 pm
stidmama

anyway, down to 45 and for some reason feeling all at the same time restless and lazy. Maybe I need protein. I think I'll wander off again and try to find something substantial. I STILL have to pack for tomorrow... *sigh*
5:49 pm

i use the same password for everything,but add a dynamic number at the end
5:49 pm
HarryHood

5:49 pm
lilliann

aye ok crossy.i won 't sleep with anything around my neck as when i was 17 i got strangled and i put the keys in a certtain place every day but then the bairn will move them and put them somewhere different and when hubby is home he moves keys and can't remember where he put them
5:49 pm

5:54 pm
lilliann

5:54 pm

52 years i January, although for about ten months (in 1962) I lived in San Francisco - weather was too much like London.

Hi Molly, sorry I got distracted, I had a very nice date. Kind of a surprise.
6:51 pm

I grew up in Clapton, then we moved to Hackney. I miss London, but not the weather. I have two sisters, one with her family in London, the other with her family in NZ, so we're blessed to have the computers.
6:58 pm
lilliann

can i ask all my american/canadian friends, what is a chicken pot pie? is it chicken with pastry on top?
6:59 pm
Christine

yumm .. yes it is, with some veggies - peas and such, and a creamy white gravy. Just what would hit the spot, right now.
6:59 pm
lilliann

i lived near croydon.do you get to see your sisters much christine or their familiess?
7:01 pm
lilliann

so do they cook it in one big pot christine as in deep and then pastry on top(short crust)?
7:01 pm
Christine

Judith, in NZ sometimes visits, on her way to or from London. My sister in London I last saw when I went home for my Mum's funeral. I'm hoping to have a hip replacement, and another knee replacement, in the next year, then I hope to be mobile, enough to go home in 2014.
7:02 pm
lilliann

sounds lovely, i could just eat some now with some home grown new potatoes, asparagus, green beans and carrots
7:04 pm
lilliann

sorry about your mam and i hope all goes well with your knee and hip replacements so you can visit your sister.
7:12 pm
MollyL

Chicken pot pie is prepared in a pie pan. Crust on the bottom, chicken, peas, carrots, potatoes and chicken gravy inside and crust on the top. It's considered comfort food by many.
7:16 pm
lilliann

oh ok thanks molly. we would just call that a chicken pie.we cook pies on plates with the pastrie top and bottom or in foil trays.if i was cooking a puff pastry pie then i have deep ceramic dishes and cook the filling and then place the puff pastry on top and put ion oven to puff. i like cheese,onion and bacon pie(short crust pastry) my mam always cooked it for us when we were younger. it's nice hot or cold
7:16 pm
Jillyjill

yummy!! #1 son has requested my home-made mac and cheese tonight. :-)
7:17 pm
lilliann

we wouldn't normally put potatoes in pies. peas and sweetcorn we do
7:18 pm
lilliann

sound nice jill, now i'm hungry and it has gone 1am here, so i can't eat :(
7:18 pm
wvteach

don't use potatoes either - also i don't like a bottom crust, just use a top crust and make it in a casserole dish - also make it with dumplings on top (#1 sons favorite)
7:21 pm
lilliann

do you just have one type of pastry, as in short crust or do you use puff pasty aswell?
7:22 pm
lilliann

i must admit teach, i prefer just pastry top whatever pastry. i love stew and dumplings, i must admit i make a wicked stew
7:23 pm
wvteach

maybe because i don't think i make good crusts i only like one crust - but even with fruit pies i will scrape the fruit off the bottom crust and leave it
7:23 pm
MollyL

The term "pot pie" actually came from the British and was continued here by American colonists. It's generally made from standard pie crust and not puff pastry, but as you can see from responses here, people improvise.
7:23 pm
wvteach

what do you do with your stew
7:28 pm
lilliann

if i have dumplings i have to make a stew, which is cubed beef,pearl barley,dried peas and lentils,sprouts,chopped carrots,cubed swede,(hubby) likes cubed potatoes and i add a big spoonful of marmite, balsamic vinegar,worcester sauce ,beef oxo cubes and water
7:30 pm
wvteach

do you use all three - dried peas, barley and lentils (i have used one or the other but not all three) - and what is marmite may i ask
7:30 pm
lilliann

let it cook in oven or on top of hobb for a couple of hours until the meat is falling apart and then put dumplings ontop for 20 minutes until cooked.you might havr to keep adding water as the pearl barley soaks it up, but then i'll add a bit more worcester sauce, water and some more marmite
7:31 pm
lilliann

yes, i use all 3, we get them in a pack here, it's called a broth mix, which up north where i live the broth mix is used with gammon and cooked slowly for a couple of hours
7:32 pm
lilliann

marmite is similar to vegemite
7:32 pm
MollyL

*Wonders if Lilliann thinks I forgot about mushy peas*
7:32 pm
lilliann

it's a beefy yeast extract
7:32 pm
lilliann

i hate mushy peas
7:33 pm
lilliann

pffftttt molly :)
7:34 pm
lilliann

bovril is similar, and i hate that too
7:35 pm
lilliann

teach, it will be the same as pot pie, people will cook and add different things to their stews
7:35 pm
lilliann

i'm throwing mushy peas at molly as we speak :)

7:42 pm
MollyL

Really? You don't sedate over agitated patients?
7:43 pm
lilliann

not surprising champ, why did he think there was a demon by him?
7:43 pm
redturtlehead

with certain heart conditions, we can not sedate because it will exacerbate the heart problem, so the pt got to be agitated, its rare, but it does happen...
7:43 pm
ChampFit

I didn't get to hear the whole story. We have a date to catch up. He went and prayed with some friends, and felt better after that. Sounds scary!
7:44 pm
redturtlehead

that does sound scary Champ. I can not even imagine.
7:44 pm
ChampFit

I know!
7:44 pm
lilliann

well, aslong as he feels safer now, that's the main thing
7:45 pm
ChampFit

Agreed. he's a great guy. He "died" of a heart attack, saw the light, the whole nine yards, several years ago. He didn't get spiritual till a few years after that. So I believe he's sincere.

right, so why should i invest the time with you virtually if in the end we have no chemistry? which we'd know ONLY if we meet face to face

i would say you should bother because sometimes passion will return. i am reminded of the all the bleak times in mother teresa's diaries

I agree with Shirl, people should be very careful about meeting people in person that they have "met" on line. A brief meeting at first to test the water is the best way. Never, ever, make a first meeting any longer than that.

i was referring to her diaries which were published after her death

9:31 pm
rururocks

she got it repaired once and got it 3 minutes from the repair shop and it blew up again
9:31 pm

9:36 pm
jmcnrick

which mab?
9:36 pm
Jillyjill

So do I dawg!
9:36 pm
mab

that manuals are more cost effective
9:37 pm
mab

i prefer them, but i think the technology on either kind of transmission is roughly comparable
9:37 pm
jmcnrick

well when the transmission is shot it is cheaper to fix a manual if nothing else. . .and in an emergency you have more control over the car. . .AND (and to me most important) they are more fun to drive
9:38 pm
mab

i quite agree
9:38 pm
lbdawger

definitley more fun to drive! had a 64 mustang and boy howdy, that baby was fun!
9:38 pm
jmcnrick

when i can't drive a stick anymore i will quit driving
9:39 pm
jmcnrick

dang i would have given my eye teeth for a 64 1/2 mustang
9:39 pm

somewhat tiresome in city driving however
9:39 pm

but had about 8 miles per gallon mileage
9:39 pm

I had a '68 Fiat spider...used to clutch start it...lived on a hill...lol brings back memories
9:39 pm
BabbleRabble

Bankrate says, "No." For the average driver under the average conditions, there is little difference.

For drivers in everyday situations, a manual transmission is not likely to provide any difference in fuel economy over an automatic transmission. The reason is that to achieve the optimum fuel efficiency a driver has to execute shifts at precise engine rpms (revolutions per minute). Given the challenges of city driving conditions, most drivers won't be able to realize greater fuel economy with a manual gearbox.

One consideration, however, is that usually an automatic transmission costs extra, which could factor into the buying decision. On the flip side, the majority of new vehicles aren't even offered with a manual transmission.

9:43 pm

I've even driven in left side of the road countries - manual
9:43 pm
jmcnrick

so often it is the driver with that lbd. . . my boy was using his jeep to tow ambulances out of snow drift during one blizzard
9:43 pm
lbdawger

i bet you treated that olds like a cherished lover, BR
9:44 pm
jmcnrick

that probably had more to do with maintaining it and not driving more than 100,000 miles BR
9:44 pm
BabbleRabble

the engine had many more miles to give
9:44 pm
