I daren't complain - that would be sacrilege(?) in this house

A good trick is to start doing something, but do some aspect of it wrong so that his instinct to do it the right way kicks in.
2:08 am

ahhh, like use the wrong sort of sandpaper??
2:08 am
grannyrose

or ask for sandpaper so that i can hand sand the filler. ooohhhh.....th4 would drive him nuts.

No - doesn't work. I'm just going to start paying someone to do things - he still has Yorkshire blood in him

That's the extreme way to do it - threaten to pay someone else to do a job - A man will absolutely bristle at this ..
2:12 am
grannyrose

tor, have given this guy over 2 years to finish this bathroom....don't think i am forcing him, or nagging, do you?
2:14 am

Men resist nagging, but most enjoy a challenge - Find a way to challenge him to do it without impugning his masculinity ..

3:59 am
crosshair

a proper home should always have a nice one
4:00 am
rbud

I totally agree! been nudging the old man for years.
4:00 am
crosshair

was always functional up north as well,was where we kept the secondary wood pile so as to not have to run to the main pile all the time
4:01 am
crosshair

will never forget it..5 bush cord and 2 face cord of soft wood t6o heat a 1500 sq foot home for winter.wood chips and bark everywhere
4:02 am
crosshair

but you got used to it,and there is nothing like coming home to a wood fire after working out in minus 30 all day
4:04 am
crosshair

and not having to rely too heavy on the power lines is nice:)
4:04 am
rbud

have lived in several woodstove homes, very sentimental about it, in spite of the mess.
4:05 am
crosshair

power goes out,you fire up the kerosene lamps and carry on per usual lol just put the freezer stuff out in the snow banks lol
4:05 am
rbud

one year the local Tri-County heat aid people bought our wood for the winter, as it was our only form of he4, kinda neat - usually they just pay folks' heat bills for a couple of months in the winter
4:06 am
crosshair

that is neat
4:06 am
crosshair

you have to be a certain distance up north to get the heat rebate here
4:06 am
rbud

and one year a crew came and built a stand for a 55 gal barrel, and filled it with kerosene, as that was my main form of heat that year.
4:07 am
crosshair

and it is more applied as a tax credit than actual cash or wood
4:07 am
rbud

I've roughed it, for sure. Kerosene heater and a heated waterbed, lol. Long winter.
4:07 am
crosshair

lol,we had a stove like that once! loved it.except our ran on stove oil,
4:08 am
crosshair

it looked like a old round top fridge and you adjusted the heat vents by hand and it had a burner ring you lit with a taper and a small blower fan
4:09 am
crosshair

that little oil heater could blow us right out of the place no matter the temp outside
4:09 am
rbud

the one year we had an oil stove like that, the oil froze in the lines and wouldn't keep it going! luckily we had woodstove backup in the next room. The winter our first baby was born.
4:09 am
crosshair

yes,the stove oil does get thick below minus 25 or so
4:10 am
rbud

ah, the romantic nights in front of the woodstove, teeth chattering, huddling for warmth, gotta love it. :)
4:10 am
crosshair

lol,getting all misty over a old coal oil stove,but it was a nice heat as well
4:11 am
rbud

my grandparents never had anything but wood heat and a wood kitchen stove as well. that baby would run you right out of the house!
4:11 am
rbud

had to open windows.
4:11 am
crosshair

chattering? i do not know what type of wood stove you had,but ours was a old franklin stove could hold 22 inch lengths and if you let it get away on you,you spent all day with the windows open,no matter the temp outside
4:12 am
crosshair

snap
4:12 am
crosshair

love the wood kitchen ranges
4:13 am
rbud

yes, I think Grandpa's living room one was similar, big long stove on its side, very long wood.
4:13 am
crosshair

our hunt camp had one with a water boiler
4:13 am
rbud

Grandma said she couldn't cook on newfangled gas range, hated it.
4:13 am
crosshair

we used to float a 12 volt pool pump in it on 2 blocks of styrofoam and run a line to a shower stall lol
4:14 am
rbud

ingenious! :D
4:14 am
crosshair

it is hard,but once you get used to a wood range and learn its sweet spots,you are good to go
4:14 am
crosshair

at first you usually burn everything to a crisp lol
4:15 am
crosshair

and you can still order them!
4:15 am
crosshair

and combo wood /natural gas/propane
4:16 am
crosshair

i would love a wood/propane combo kitchen range aga range company makes them
4:16 am
rbud

I did spend one winter with just a tall skinny (but very pretty) Red Oak stove, in a badly insulated house, pulled the couches up close and spent the whole winter with my feet right on the skirt of the stove.
4:16 am
rbud

and cooked on top of it, lots of beans and ham.
4:17 am
crosshair

lol,we used to dry our boot liners on the skirts
4:17 am
crosshair

only problem with that type of heat is staying awake after a hard day
4:17 am
crosshair

it is better than any sleeping pill
4:18 am
rbud

that year we were snowed in for over 3 weeks, couldn't get out of the driveway. one day a four-wheel-drive finally came down our road, we shovelled out and followed the tracks in. 20 miles out in the woods, those were the days.
4:19 am

Babble tells me they are not in the dictionary (eye roll here) and they are not on the Babble list, but they were accpeted by Babble Expert. Maybe Mr P uses a different dictionary? Inquiring minds want to know...

Maybe email Lickety himself dawg - MRP is a bit spasmodic lately
7:07 am
lbdawger

7:08 am

Godthaab - puts licketys list and Babble on same screen...entered words updates both lists similtaneosly

why can't you use it Ruby?
7:10 am

Wow! I could use that.... Is there a Mac version imminent?
7:11 am

OK. Thanks.

7:12 am

7:12 am
rubyfoo

Dh's daughter is coming in Sept, perhaps she can figure it out. Im a computer cluk!
7:12 am
lynxxx

Bulk Add feature was meant for Godthaab
7:14 am
lbdawger

bulk add has saved my bacon.
7:14 am
godthaab

Yes. I know that one.
7:15 am
lynxxx

Bulk Add is great - the hours and hours I used to spend printing out lists and writing the words into them!
7:15 am
lynxxx

not that I am addicted or anything
7:16 am
godthaab

I know.....
7:16 am
Anniebrook

I still print out the list and add the words by hand when Lickety's list is not available and I am NOT addicted either.
7:17 am
lynxxx

ha!
7:18 am
MollyL

When Lickety is down, I put the list on an Exel spreadsheet and add the words. That is quicker for me than doing it by hand.
7:19 am
MollyL

Excel
7:19 am
Anniebrook

Molly, I am so computer illiterate it is laughable
7:20 am
lynxxx

If some-one lovely has put a list on their profile, I will line up the profile against My Word List. Hopefully not looking for too many so quite OK to use that way
7:21 am

hello Moly, Ruby is fading out with only 126 words..l

Lickety/mrP use a slightly different version of Enable for the clues, so sometimes the clues have a valid word that is not valid in the Babble version.

Cross. Can you advise me. I have had for years Norton 360 as protection. It seems to have a bug which stops me running Chrome or Firefox - and I can't run Norton either. Norton people are unable to get remote access and can't get me thru to repair and replace. Internet Explorer (yuk) working OK. I do have a free copy of MacAfee Security. Should I trash Norton and just use the McAfee???
6:49 pm

7:23 pm

Hi Christine, how are you?
7:25 pm
Christine

doing nothing, as usual -- retirement is just fine, for a lazybones like me
7:25 pm
redturtlehead

I dream of retirement.
7:28 pm
Christine

Two things at which I excell - lying on the couch and reading all day - in retirement I do just that. I live alone, so I eat/sleep when I want, volunteer a few days a month at the library -- life is very good.
7:30 pm
redturtlehead

oh to have the time to do what I want. Ah well,,
7:33 pm
redturtlehead

this grid is wearing on me...
7:34 pm
Christine

I expected, in retirement, I'd do all those things for which we don't have time while employed - some great museums near me - but my knees and hips went belly-up, and I could barely walk for many years - now I'm gearing up for a second knee replacement, then a hip replacement, then I'll get moving,
7:35 pm
Christine

Well, if you're not at retirment age, it's a blessing to have a job.
7:36 pm
redturtlehead

I suppose...yes I would think I would be unhappy without regular income..
7:37 pm
redturtlehead

good luck with the hip.and knee!!!!
7:37 pm
Christine

my daughter and her husband sell online - no guaranteed income, and I cringe, each month, worrying that they'll make it through their bills.
7:38 pm
redturtlehead

I am a nurse, so employement is a bit more stable...
7:40 pm
Christine

I remember, we were always hearing "well, banking doesn't pay much, but you'll always find a job" until the big flop, when banks started to merge and there were no jobs. I'm so thankful I no longer have to worry about that -- gives me plenty of time to worry about my kid(s).
7:41 pm
redturtlehead

My career has been blessed, I graduated in the huge Shortage, got experience, and now even though there is no real shortage, with the experience, I am still in demand...
7:43 pm
Christine

Thank God. My ypoung neighbour (about 35) has been unemployed for almost two years.
7:43 pm
Christine

7:44 pm
