1:23 am

flosey

I do have a bit of aging memory loss that is often embarrassing

1:24 am

dizgrannie

hey Granny, whats the weather like down your way? Its been a very wintery day here, roads closed due to snow in the blue mountains, Canberra and Goulburn

1:24 am

grannyrose

my goodness, flosey. i bet they all absolutely scrumptious.

1:24 am

jillibus

Hi all -- was out for dinner, then glued to the rerun of the Biden-Ryan debate. Yay Joe!

1:25 am

flosey

hi jilli, where did you go?

1:25 am

jillibus

Seaside, with Pat and Dorothy and another couple of their friends

1:26 am

jillibus

Patrick Taylor, that is. He's happy about NY Times and Globe & Mail Best Seller lists for a couple of his books

1:27 am

grannyrose

diz, damp but not too cold. altohough we have the heater going. and i'm wearing knee-high socks which come over my knees and a third the way up my thighs, under very thick track dacks.

1:27 am

jillibus

granny, my cosuin in Sydney said they had snow

1:28 am

dizgrannie

we sure did Jilli.....whereabouts is your Cousin?

1:28 am

grannyrose

yes, jilli. a very cold arctic blast has hit the eastern seaboard. fortunately it missed us this year.

1:29 am

flosey

I read one of his books, jilli, quite entertaining

1:29 am

jillibus

In Sydney, diz -- not sure exactly where. I also have cousins in Canberra and Melbourne and Frenchs Forest.

1:30 am

jillibus

flosey, read more -- which one did you read? They get better and better.

1:30 am

flosey

flosey

nasty blast of winter just to make you appreciate Spring all the more

1:32 am

flosey

1:32 am

flosey

1:33 am

jillibus

1:33 am

rururocks

1:33 am

grannyrose

BabbleRabble

Hello, Rose

4:28 am

grannyrose

hey nanette and babrab

4:29 am

BabbleRabble

How are you feeling today, Rose?

4:29 am

Shallow One

ps4! dont disturb the solemn mood ...

4:30 am

grannyrose

babrab, i lost it tonight. i'm just not handling this persistent pain. i know it will eventually settle, but i want it to do so RIGHT NOW!!

4:31 am

grannyrose

how are you, buddy? nice and level day for you, i hope?

4:31 am

BabbleRabble

I do not blame you. Will your doc write a script for a stronger pain med?

4:32 am

BabbleRabble

My mood is as variable as the weather

4:32 am

grannyrose

yes, but i'm trying to do without it. but today was hydro, and i'm always a little weepy and sore after it. i use the stronger meds on hydro days.

4:33 am

NonoNanette

Rose I am surpised that the pain still lingers, how long has it been now?

4:33 am

BabbleRabble

Why endure the pain if you do not have to?

4:33 am

grannyrose

may be your name should be melbourne, where we are known to have all 4 seasons in one day.

4:34 am

grannyrose

it's nearly 4 months, nanette, but don't forget i am dealing with fibromyalgia at the same time.

4:34 am

NonoNanette

ah yes I had forgotten that

4:36 am

grannyrose

lol, my shin and back of the knee are the worst areas. and my PT pointed out that i am doing 1 hour of constant challenging exercise.

4:37 am

NonoNanette

nbt but still need an 8 for nbs

4:37 am

BabbleRabble

How is your emotional health, Rose ... trauma and a chronic illness are factors that might lead to depression, for example.

4:39 am

grannyrose

so right, BR. had a minor breakdown 3 weeks ago. i'm trying to remain pleasant and polite, but himself was in a sniping mood tonight. i usually walk away, but tonight, as i said, i lost it.

4:40 am

BabbleRabble

4:46 am

grannyrose

hey amia, nice to see you again. how was your day? feeling a little stronger, hun?

4:47 am

BabbleRabble

How would the pain meds affect work? You and your treatment team can monitor the meds

4:47 am

Amiamirande

BabbleRabble

I will shush

4:50 am

BabbleRabble

co 7/40 - add the tenure of a royal ruler occupying the throne; pl

4:51 am

grannyrose

BR, the stronger pain meds are a synthetic narcotic. i am not allowed to work under the influence of drugs like that. indeed, i will not even drive my car if i have taken them. i use ibuprofen with codeine on the other days, when i'm not doing hydro.

4:52 am

Amiamirande

Sorry to hear you are in pain Rose.

4:52 am

Hi Ruby

5:38 am

rubyfoo

hello hello, no no

5:39 am

rubyfoo

is BR still here?

5:40 am

NonoNanette

not sure, he may be lurking somewhere

5:40 am

rubyfoo

game is acting odd. words don't enter, takes two hits to get words into the chog

uh oh, red box of death

5:41 am

rubyfoo

game is acting odd. words don't enter, takes two hits to get words into the chog

5:42 am

NonoNanette

my last message totally disappeared... no red box, nothing

5:44 am

BabbleRabble

Hello, Ruby.

5:44 am

rubyfoo

hello, br

5:45 am

rubyfoo

we had about 12 peaceful hours, but mr. hyde is back.

5:46 am

rubyfoo

however, I found the No Atl. fish and have 141 and nbt and nbs with no help

5:46 am

NonoNanette

so sorry Ruby, grateful you had some peace tho

5:46 am

BabbleRabble

Good for you, Ruby

5:46 am

rubyfoo

I'm afraid there's nothing to be done

5:47 am

NonoNanette

thats great Ruby, I had to have help with an 8 for nbs

5:47 am

Scrabbler

Good day to all.

5:47 am

rubyfoo

it's a shame that he can't see how much luckier we are than most people.....

5:47 am

NonoNanette

morning Scrabs

5:47 am

rubyfoo

hello scrabs

5:48 am

BabbleRabble

As soon as he starts, leave. He can talk to himself.

5:48 am

rubyfoo

mpost people don't even live to be his age and he's surprisingly healthy

5:49 am

rubyfoo

or, as Sprite would say, "Talk to my hand"

5:49 am

rubyfoo

or "Talk to my ass, my ears are tired" (it probably sounds better in Dutch!

5:50 am

NonoNanette

I like that one Ruby, dutch or not :)

5:50 am

rubyfoo

me, too, I think it's very funny, especially said as you walk out of the room

5:51 am

Scrabbler

Be silent and walk away. Just like you would do for a toddler having a tantrum.

5:51 am

NonoNanette

the thought of that makes me laugh

5:51 am

rubyfoo

exactly. It's what I did when my son was 2 and it resulted in his having only one tantrum!

5:51 am

rubyfoo

no audience, no tantrum

5:52 am

NonoNanette

omg my cat is having fits LOL

5:52 am

BabbleRabble

"Just because you can swallow a boxcar does not mean you have anything to say."

5:52 am

rubyfoo

has she found a live thing to play with?

5:52 am

NonoNanette

a mouse just snapped a trap in the cupboard and he cant get to it

5:52 am

rubyfoo

what an image, no no

5:52 am

Scrabbler

Ignore negative behavior, reinforce positive behavior.

5:53 am

rubyfoo

I try that, but, unfortunately, there's no carryover

5:53 am

NonoNanette

he is pawing at the door and crying his foolish head off

5:53 am

rubyfoo

I handled yesterday's bad behavior very well and all was fine after 4PM but it only lasted midway through lunch tody

5:54 am

rubyfoo

what will you do with the mouse, nono?

5:54 am

rubyfoo

we have mice but, fortunately, they are very cute, long-haired field mice and they live outdoors under the bird feeder

5:54 am

NonoNanette

will have son dispose of it later as I can't reach where it is at

5:55 am

rubyfoo

I wouldn't like them so much in the house

5:55 am

NonoNanette

they always seem to come in this time of year, guess they don't like the cold any better than I do

5:56 am

rubyfoo

now that it's getting cooler, some very large spiders are coming in. I like spiders, but the big ones are kind of scary

5:56 am

NonoNanette

Now Henry is pacing between the cupboard and me, trying to get me to open the door for him LOL

5:57 am

rubyfoo

And I don't like to kill anything but when I have to, I do. Like birds which have crashed into the window, are still alive, but just barely. I've learned how to take care of that

5:57 am

rubyfoo

can you distract him with food or a toy

5:57 am

BabbleRabble

My dad had an industrial vacuum cleaner ... a mouse would periodically stick its head out to see what was going on .... we used the vacuum cleaner to suck the mouse out ... must have been quite a shock

5:58 am

NonoNanette

I have birds do that all the time but they always seem to shake it off and fly away

5:58 am

NonoNanette

lol BR

5:58 am

rubyfoo

Rufie found one of those injured birds one afternoon and walked around with it in his mouth until it was dead!

5:59 am

rubyfoo

drowned, I guess

6:00 am

NonoNanette

he just ate a bit ago and toys don't seem to do the trick at the moment

6:00 am

rubyfoo

I guess you just have to leave the room

6:03 am

crosshair

seain,you in here?

6:03 am

rubyfoo

6:03 am

NonoNanette

hi Crossy

6:03 am

Scrabbler

Hi Crossy

6:03 am

crosshair

who is this paul loveking and did you see that politico-speak drivel in that last post? he must have the buzz word thesaurus handy

6:04 am

crosshair

morning everyone:)

6:04 am

rubyfoo

our old housekeeper, who was afraid of spiders, would vacuum them up. I told her that one day, they would come marching out and "get" her

6:05 am

Scrabbler

..and she had nightmares for the remainder of her life.

6:05 am

crosshair

just yakking with a guy who thinks it is fine for companies with over 50 employees in the states to kill off any full time jobs over 50 employees to avoid obamacare...wild stuff

6:05 am

NonoNanette

yikes Ruby, thats a scary thought

6:05 am

rubyfoo

hahah

6:05 am

rubyfoo

I think they could live in there for a while

6:05 am

crosshair

my mrs is terrified of spiders

6:06 am

rubyfoo

I think they're beautiful, except the big black ones who arrive after the rain and don't build webs. They jump!

6:06 am

rubyfoo

I wish I was in NY where there is an exhimition now at the Museum of Natural History with live spiders and demonstrations

6:07 am

rubyfoo

Collectively, drug companies have paid $6.6 billion in penalties in 2012 (through July) to settle Medicare, Medicaid, and other taxpayer subsidized programs, according to a new report published by national consumer watchdog group, Public Citizen. And over the last two decades, state and federal government prosecutors collected over $30 billion from pharmaceutical companies for illegal marketing and alleged fraud.

crossy in the never ending lap top dilemma. In the last episode of Gramma vs HP Babble, our heroine Gramma had craftily out foxed the evil puter and had restored Babble to its expert performance.

buttonman "defrag" or defragmentation is a program within windows that allows you ro organize and comress all the data on your hard drive in a orderly fashion thus maximizing space and getting the best speed out of your computer if you are using windows 7,just hit start and type defrag into the search box and follow instructions

10:53 am

Probably best to look at the list and figure out what you are missing.

2:03 pm

LisaG

I have do4, do4,do4, do5, do6, do4,do6,do7 and dr4

2:04 pm

LisaG

thats what im gonna do now

2:04 pm

it's always the plurals...

2:04 pm

MollyL

do5 the first one, plural of the one before it

2:05 pm

uusue2

Hi all

2:05 pm

sherb

Hi :)

2:05 pm

uusue2

Just got back from the doctor with Frank, really does look like he has Crohn's

2:06 pm

LisaG

i am missing another do6

2:07 pm

MollyL

Well then your list was incorrect because it is do4, do4, do5, do4

2:07 pm

MollyL

Sorry to hear that Sue, but at least you have something to work with now. What next?

2:07 pm

smores

1st 6 is a plural or the 5 b4 it, 2nd adds a vowel in the middle, 3rd is pasttense

2:08 pm

uusue2

Doc was very nice, even gave us a break on his fee, but I just picked up the first month's medication, it was $1150 and no I did not forget a decimal point

2:08 pm

LisaG

yeah, i didnt put it in right, I got the last do...it was more of the 4

2:08 pm

LisaG

thank you everybody

2:08 pm

MollyL

Good to hear the doctor was fair about the cost. Medication is unbelievably expensive.

Next thing is a colonoscopy, which will be Oct .30, they can give us a break on that too if I pay up front, which I will

2:09 pm

smores

so sorry sue

2:09 pm

MollyL

I really hope his divorce comes through soon and you can get him on your policy.

2:10 pm

uusue2

Me too, Molly!

2:10 pm

MollyL

Oh, and a colonoscopy the day before Halloween. Yeah, that's scary. : O

2:10 pm

uusue2

I thought of that :-)

2:11 pm

uusue2

Right now I am just glad that he is getting proper treatment. We both liked this doctor a lot.

2:12 pm

MollyL

Poor guy, he must feel like trading in his whole GI tract for a newer model.

2:12 pm

uusue2

He does indeed.

2:14 pm

uusue2

This Doc said the other one not seeing him in the hospital was bs.

2:14 pm

MollyL

I don't get these digestive disorders. Why can't they figure out what makes some of us digest just fine and other have so many problems?

2:14 pm

MollyL

Sadly, there are a lot of greedy doctors out there.

2:14 pm

uusue2

That would be good!

2:16 pm

bichon

Hi sue, Molly

2:16 pm

uusue2

Besides being nice, this doctor really seems to know hush stuff, and spent quite a bit if time with us. We were both impressed.

2:16 pm

uusue2

*his stuff. Sorry, babbling on phone.

2:17 pm

uusue2

Hi, bichon!

2:17 pm

smores

glad to hear sue, at least you seem to be in better hands now

2:18 pm

smores

well gtg get my kid, bbl to finish - 25left

2:18 pm

uusue2

Yes, we are encouraged. Frank is still on an emotional rollercoaster.

2:19 pm

uusue2

Bye, smores!

2:20 pm

bichon

who is sick, your husband Sue?

2:21 pm

uusue2

Frank is my fiancé, bichon

2:21 pm

bichon

sorry, is Frank sick?

2:22 pm

uusue2

Yes, sorry, was just trying to be precise. He was in the hospital over the weekend and apparently has Crohn's.

2:23 pm

uusue2

I have a brief summary in my profile and will update it in a bit. It's all been rather a shock.

2:23 pm

bichon

Can they do anything good for it?

2:25 pm

uusue2

Probably he will be on medication for the rest of his life. They have much better medications than they used to but they are very expensive.

2:25 pm

bichon

Did you see the GI doc yet Sue?

2:25 pm

bichon

Does he have good insurance for drugs?

2:25 pm

uusue2

Yrs, we saw him this morning, and we both liked him a lot.

2:26 pm

uusue2

And no insurance for drugs, I just paid $1150 for the first month.

2:27 pm

bichon

Yikes, is he Medicare eligible?

2:27 pm

uusue2

This,is why I'm sensitive to the husband/ fiance distinction; once we're married I can get him on my insurance.

2:27 pm

uusue2

Still too young for Medicare.

2:28 pm

bichon

Marry immediately!

2:29 pm

uusue2

The instant his divorce is final!

2:29 pm

bichon

oy, a complication.

2:30 pm

uusue2

Should be another couple of months. They're trying to get the lawyer to get the court to hurry it up.

2:31 pm

bichon

I'm sorry to hear all of this sad news. Nobody needs Crohn's

2:31 pm

uusue2

Ok, phone battery is dying and I need to put in an appearance at my office. Will be back later.

2:32 pm

bichon

3:59 pm

Yep. He sure does.

4:04 pm

Start with the first 4 letters of the bi6/7, then add four letter term for law practice (**** reform)

4:40 pm

MollyL

bi7 sounds like di7. People who are crazy have a di7ed sense of reality.

4:40 pm

Jillyjill

Nice crossy, send it on down..that must be the storm we've been forecast

4:41 pm

Jillyjill

5:03 pm

crosshair

years ago in the early 70,s we had the dutch elm disease.the trees never recovered

5:03 pm

Jillyjill

That's another reason the fires are so bad.

5:04 pm

Jillyjill

We had a pine beetle issue 40+ years ago, but a few old fashioned winters did the trick

5:04 pm

Jillyjill

Our dutch elm in our yard died of that...

5:19 pm

This is not to lay blame, but a girl of 10 should not be walking to school by herself.

5:20 pm

cosdem

the school district are making parents pay 150 a year for bus? i think i read that? but yeah she should have been chaperoned to the park to meet up with her frends at least

5:20 pm

cosdem

a horrible lesson for everyone.

5:21 pm

Jillyjill

How times have changed...I walked to school at 10..

5:21 pm

MollyL

150 a year is not that much for bus transportation.

5:21 pm

cosdem

so did my brother.

5:21 pm

cosdem

it can be for low income families

5:22 pm

I walked to school at that age too. But the pervert to normal ratio is higher these days.

I like G&T in the summer. not sure what to drink in the winter. I like Apricot brandy but it makes me tired. actually most alcohol makes me tired but the brandy more so

5:35 pm

periwinkle

5:35 pm

MollyL

Do you like spiced rum?

5:36 pm

periwinkle

yes

5:36 pm

periwinkle

5:36 pm

periwinkle

does it have to be heated up

5:36 pm

MollyL

No, a Beach Cruiser is spiced run, pineapple juice and cranberry juice. I guess you could warm it.

5:37 pm

periwinkle

don't like pineapple in my drinks

5:37 pm

MollyL

Captain Morgan and sour apple schnapps is good too.

5:37 pm

ivesy3

5:38 pm

periwinkle

I had a bad experience many years ago with Southern Comfort and pineapple juice.

5:38 pm

periwinkle

I like peach schnapps. maybe I will buy some of that.

5:38 pm

Jillyjill

I think we all have a bad experience with Southern Comfort in one form or another..

5:39 pm

periwinkle

it was not pretty

5:39 pm

ivesy3

5:39 pm

MollyL

5:40 pm

periwinkle

someone gave me "Bartenders Pocket Guide" will look in there to get some more suggestions

5:40 pm

ivesy3

orange jucie and peach snapps.. very good

5:40 pm

MollyL

Fuzzy Navel is peach schnapps and OJ

5:41 pm

periwinkle

ok, then, but that is still a summer drink, no?

5:41 pm

periwinkle

peach schnapps and peach nectar would be good too then

5:41 pm

ivesy3

one of my faves. and mudslides.. my sister makes the best

5:41 pm

MollyL

People drink them all year round.

5:42 pm

cosdem

MollyL

Mudslides are like dessert.

5:42 pm

Well, better head out to get ready for dinner...bbl *poof*

5:42 pm

MollyL

I like cinnamon, but not if it's overpowering.

5:43 pm

a bus driver was suspended because she told a 10 year old kid her mom shld of aborted him because he liked romney. thats disgusting.

5:45 pm

periwinkle

he should have been suspended. no matter what his opinions re the candidates that was a hateful thing to say

5:46 pm

periwinkle

this is a very twisty grid

5:46 pm

cosdem

agreed.

5:46 pm

ivesy3

time for me to sign out. have a good day/night all

5:47 pm

cosdem

D's, E's done. 105 to go.

5:48 pm

MollyL

5:51 pm

cosdem

5:51 pm

cosdem

5:56 pm

periwinkle

ty bye for now

5:56 pm

uusue2

hi crossy! and yay peri!

5:57 pm

uusue2

update on Frank in my profile

5:58 pm

uusue2

hope nobody minds, I find writing these long diatribes in my profile to be quite therapeutic

6:00 pm

crosshair

i am always interesting in franks progress

6:00 pm

crosshair

do not worry bout it

6:00 pm

crosshair

though the u.s health system makes me tear my hair out for you

6:01 pm

crosshair

my b.i.l has had crohn,s for better part of 25 years

6:01 pm

uusue2

well, we like this doctor a lot, and he is working with us to keep the costs down (unfortunately there's not much he can do about the cost of the medication, though)

6:02 pm

uusue2

yes, I know some people that have it too, one of my son's fraternity brothers has it

6:03 pm

MollyL

Writing is very therapeutic Sue. You keep right on doing it.

6:03 pm

crosshair

here,meds still cost heaven and the earth though.you need supplimental or low income coverage for that

6:04 pm

uusue2

one month supply of his new med was $1155. Sigh.

6:06 pm

MollyL

Another thing that is helpful it to keep a small notebook with you and write down what the doctor says when you see him, and any questions you think of before you see him. Going through stuff like this tends to scatter your thoughts

6:06 pm

crosshair

yes,get him on your coverage.this med,often is forever.you can actually write the pharacuitcal company that makes it if it is a harship and they often assist

6:06 pm

uusue2

So I had better get back to work on the physics problems that I'm doing for the publisher; they kind of fell by the wayside for a while.

6:07 pm

uusue2

yes, we've been doing that, Molly, and it is a great idea. Helps to have both of us there, too. And you are right, crossy, this is going to be a long term proposition.

6:07 pm

uusue2

oh, crossy!1 How is your diet going??

6:11 pm

bichon

At Wesleyan University, our employer [my former before I retired] a partner ualifies for coverage

6:11 pm

bichon

domestic partner that is

6:12 pm

crosshair

12 pound loss for sept suze

6:14 pm

crosshair

28 pounds to go

6:14 pm

uusue2

wow, that sounds great, crossy!

6:15 pm

uusue2

bichon, I could get him covered as a domestic partner if he weren't married to someone else, but as soon as his divorce is final we will get married ASAP anyway.

6:16 pm

bichon

WTG Crossy

6:16 pm

nrkii

uusue2, is budesonide a biologic (infusion/injection)?

6:16 pm

nrkii

and Hi all!

6:17 pm

uusue2

no, it's a glucocorticoid steroid

6:17 pm

uusue2

the biologics are another factor of 5 or so more expensive

6:18 pm

nrkii

yep, I am on biologic for PsA, and that's why I was asking, because the price tag seemed cheap (LOL)

6:18 pm

uusue2

and hi nrkii!

6:18 pm

nrkii

these autoimmune diseases are a b***h

6:18 pm

uusue2

yeah, if this quits working the next step is immunosuppressants, then biologics

6:18 pm

uusue2

indeed they are!! He is particularly annoyed at having two of them (celiac and Crohn's)

6:19 pm

nrkii

I have to say, I have loved the biologics, even though I know they are risky.

6:19 pm

nrkii

multiple autoimmunes often go together

6:19 pm

bichon

what are biologics?

6:19 pm

nrkii

I have Psoriatic Arthritis + Raynaud's

6:19 pm

crosshair

it one ofter a precursor to the other or are they mutually exclusive?

6:19 pm

uusue2

I told him he should quit hogging them and let somebody else have one of them ;-)

6:19 pm

crosshair

is

6:19 pm

nrkii

bichon, they are immune suppressing drugs

6:20 pm

nrkii

crossy, they don't seem to know, but most people I have encountered with an autoimmune tend to have more than one

6:20 pm

uusue2

sorry, crossy, one what?

6:20 pm

crosshair

corhons and ceiac

6:20 pm

crosshair

i cannot type tonight

6:20 pm

nrkii

My dad had RA + Ankylosing Spondilitis

6:21 pm

bichon

fireworks for me. Finally

6:21 pm

crosshair

so,one often tends to lead to another

6:21 pm

crosshair

yaa for bichon!!

6:21 pm

bichon

Night all

6:21 pm

uusue2

about 20% of people with Crohn's also have celiac

6:21 pm

uusue2

and yay bichon!

6:21 pm

nrkii

yay bichon!!

6:21 pm

nrkii

it's not that one causes the other, but more that when your immune system is crazy, it is crazy in more than one way

6:22 pm

nrkii

and they don't emerge on the same time schedule

6:22 pm

nrkii

:)

6:23 pm

uusue2

I figure he's lucky that the Crohn's is emerging so late in life, maybe he won't have as hard a time with it as people who develop it much younger

6:25 pm

crosshair

yes,my b.i.l has gone through hell and more operations than i can count

6:26 pm

crosshair

cutting lengths of intestine/bowel out

6:27 pm

nrkii

ooh, not good. not good at all

6:27 pm

uusue2

yeah, when we were first in the ER on Thursday they were talking about that for Frank, but fortunately it doesn't seem to be necessary

6:27 pm

crosshair

good,good

6:29 pm

MollyL

bi7/8 sounds like "crazy people have a di7ed view of reality"

7:27 pm

Lizlin

ty Molly - I'll have to think about that

7:29 pm

Your reflection in a fun house mirror is di7ed?

Hi sue

7:49 pm

smores

you've probably already checked into this, but I just remembered my brother telling me about a prescription discount card he got.

7:50 pm

uusue2

yes, we have one, and got another one from Walgreens, it saved us $200. Which is better than nothing!

7:50 pm

smores

It saves him 10% on his meds - not a lot but at $1500 a pop it would be substantial. Anyways, here is the link http://www.needymeds.org/indices/newus\ner.htm

7:51 pm

smores

teehee, guess we were typing at the same time - I figured you all ready had one.

7:51 pm

smores

7:59 pm

8:00 pm

gapeach

I'm back.

8:00 pm

Minveryork

Twas the night of Friday and all through Babbleland
Not a babbler was stirring to lend me a hand
My words typed in the list with care
Wanted to ask for a clue, but nobody was there
Maybe I should just go nestle in my bed
And have sweet dream inside my head
I'm already dressed in a robe and my cap
With my dog sitting with me on my lap
When what to my wondering eye should appear
Why a fellow babbler has entered here

11:05 pm

Minveryork

Hello dcseain!How are you doing? Welcome to the grid
