12:39 am

Glantarell

or a piece of wood to keep the door open - then insert an extra vowel before the last letter

Glantarell

we6 :-)

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. (AP) — Four days after the election, President Barack Obama can finally claim victory in Florida.

The state finished counting its votes Saturday. Obama was declared the winner, giving him a 332 to 206 final margin in the Electoral College.

Florida officials said Obama had 50 percent of the vote to Romney's 49.1 percent, a margin of about 74,000 votes.

I'm still afraid to tell husband that I want to go to London for a long weekend in Dec. Need some courage, like the scraecrow in OZ

6:12 am

smores

You so deserve to get away and have some fun Ruby

6:12 am

rubyfoo

how about I set up a babble meetup for my house and disappear! lol

6:13 am

rubyfoo

ty smores

6:13 am

smores

LOL hilarious

6:13 am

BabbleRabble

Walk out the door and call him from London

6:13 am

smores

You could just pack up and go

6:13 am

smores

lol BR

6:14 am

rubyfoo

the problem is arranging all the meals, for him and the pups, AND that it coincides with our wedding annicersary. (Maybe he'll forget....lol)

6:14 am

smores

if he asked where you going, tell him, I told you a month ago

6:15 am

rubyfoo

that's a good idea, smores

6:15 am

smores

Happy Anniversary Honey, you get the house to yourself..lol

6:15 am

rubyfoo

the housekeeper will come in (extra) in the evening, but I'm afraid he'll burn the house down

6:15 am

rubyfoo

you are too funny, smores

6:17 am

crosshair

things that bug crossy #34,863- having a sneezing fit while in the middle of carrying 2 cups of tea somewhere:((

6:17 am

rubyfoo

better than after or as your are swallowing the tea!

6:17 am

BabbleRabble

A little added flavor

6:18 am

smores

:( crossy...

6:18 am

smores

lol BR

6:18 am

smores

I had to pull over in rush hour traffic recently due to a sneezing fit

6:19 am

smores

luckily I was in the right lane already

6:19 am

BabbleRabble

How well did it fit?

6:19 am

crosshair

ruby,pre pack a bag for a week,keep it in the car and one day tell him you are going to the grocer and head to the airport.perhaps he will not notice till your back if your housekeeper can stall him

6:19 am

smores

not well at all BR

6:20 am

rubyfoo

I realy want to go. These family parties are lovely for me.

6:21 am

BabbleRabble

All kidding aside, I think it is tragic you have to tiptoe around your husband.

6:21 am

smores

You HAVE to go Ruby...you so owe it to yourself

6:21 am

rubyfoo

it may be tragic, but I can blame no one but myself

6:21 am

crosshair

if you go to london,you should say howdy to my uncle ian.he runs(if it is still in operation there) the big kodak plant

6:21 am

smores

agreed BR

6:22 am

rubyfoo

I think Kodak now makes only film for movies. My son's FIL worked for Kodak his whole life, in Rochester, NY

6:24 am

rubyfoo

BR, I don't think my situation is that unusual; it just sort of blindsided me due to lack of foresight

6:25 am

rubyfoo

when you're 50, who thinks of a major age difference?

6:25 am

smores

does he help with the dogs ruby

6:26 am

rubyfoo

yes, he walks the dogs as I'm not strong enough and he does the grocery shopping

6:26 am

rubyfoo

those are both good things

6:26 am

BabbleRabble

May not be that unusual but abuse is wrong

6:26 am

smores

good, so that isn't something for you to worry about

6:27 am

rubyfoo

I think the nastiness comes with his (advanced) age, whether it is Alzheimer's or just ordinary age-related dementia.

6:27 am

sprite

good afternoon, all

6:28 am

rubyfoo

he had a nasty temperament a long time ago, I just chose to ignore it!

6:28 am

smores

I didn't know there was an age difference Ruby

6:28 am

BabbleRabble

Okay, but he refuses to get help and the doc is his toady

6:28 am

rubyfoo

6:28 am

BabbleRabble

Hi, sprite

6:28 am

rubyfoo

French toady doc! hahah

6:28 am

6:30 am

BabbleRabble

Hello, Lizlin. I am having a rather weakend

6:30 am

Lizlin

Lol

6:30 am

smores

pack up and go, if and when he says something, tell him "we discussed this a month ago"

6:30 am

rubyfoo

I think your suggestion is the best, smores. Huh, you don't remember? I told you a month ago!

6:31 am

smores

It may do you both some good, I know it will do you good

6:33 am

BabbleRabble

We are having a winter weather watch ... so I closed the shades

6:34 am

6:34 am

rubyfoo

the problem is "he'd rather sit in the dark"

6:34 am

rubyfoo

closing the shades against the weather is a good idea

6:34 am

BabbleRabble

Are you okay, sprite

6:34 am

rubyfoo

how is Tim, sprite?

6:35 am

sprite

there... my messages got eaten by cyberspace pacmen. Here goes again:
Just go, ruby. I am serious. He is just manipulating you, which is his pattern to get his way. Just go and enjoy it. He can manage.

6:36 am

rubyfoo

OK, with all your encouragement, dear babble firneds, I am not going to book my ticket and hotel!!!!

6:41 am

cool.girl

hi everyone

6:41 am

BabbleRabble

I hope you never lose your sense of wonder
You get your fill to eat but always keep that hunger
May you never take one single breath for granted
God forbid love ever leave you empty handed
I hope you still feel small when you stand beside the ocean
Whenever one door closes I hope one more opens
Promise me that you'll give faith a fighting chance
And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance

I hope you dance
I hope you dance

6:41 am

sprite

reaching out over the miles to you, BabbleRabble. If we can't do it day by day, we'll do it hour by hour or minute by minute.

7:02 am

sprite

yes, and she will have you to hold her and let her grieve. Glad things are developing well. It is a tough job.

7:03 am

crosshair

one thing it has done is to open my own eyes to make sure my own affirs in that regard are up to date and clear and concise with an accurate list of nombers and names in there as well

7:03 am

smores

maybe when this is all over you two can take a weekend to a fav place

if you enjoy war doccumentaries the best (IMHO) is still the 1974 BBC series world at war

7:16 am

sprite

I very much don't, crossy. I remember, but I don't look it up. I am very much anti-war, but I also very much appreciate the efforts of those who fought so peace could be rewon. I try not to watch documentaries that make me feel depressed, but I do spend time sending up a prayer for peace and for all those who fought and either died, or had to live with the consequences.

7:18 am

smores

I know what you mean sprite, I have watched a few and while very interesting also very sad

7:19 am

this is one of my personal truths: I can do more by allowing some love to collect in my heart and send it out into the world, than by letting the cruelty and suffering in the world flow into me and make me depressed or bitter.

In the 1980s, Pablo Escobar’s Medellin Cartel was spending $2,500 a month on rubber bands just to hold all their cash.

8:21 am

crosshair

ok,that was a pretty lame tidbit so here is a bonus one...

8:21 am

smores

wow crossy, your tidbit is sad...

8:21 am

crosshair

In New Jersey and Oregon, pumping your own gas is illegal. These states banned self-service out of fear that untrained consumers might light themselves on fire. The laws are surprisingly popular with citizens; any mention of their repeal has been met with fervent opposition.

8:21 am

smores

they spent my income on rubber bands, terrible

8:22 am

smores

lol....nice

8:22 am

car.eeyore

Do they charge more for it? Here self-serve is cheaper than full-serve.

8:22 am

sprite

a luxureous law

8:22 am

Brookie

New Jersey is just 10 minutes away from me, and I hate not doing self-serve, so I always gas up in Delaware. So far haven't lit myself on fire!

8:22 am

crosshair

here it is the same

8:22 am

smores

<-----misses full service stations

8:23 am

Brookie

Gas is actually slightly cheaper in NJ, for whatever reason, even though it's full service.

8:23 am

smores

here it is almost non-existant

8:23 am

sprite

here as well, car.

8:23 am

car.eeyore

Hi Brookie! Glad to hear that!

8:23 am

Brookie

I just don't like handing my credit card to a gas station attendant in NJ.

8:23 am

crosshair

my last station i gave up just this march was the last full serve in town

8:24 am

hurshy

the reason is that NJ puts less state taxes on the gas.

8:24 am

car.eeyore

Woot! Found co 10!!!!!

8:24 am

30 years in the fuel industry was more than enough fro crossy

8:24 am

good job, car

8:25 am

you guys better enjoy your gas prices..is roughly $5.20 a u.s gallon here

8:25 am

car.eeyore

ouch.

8:25 am

smores

eww

8:25 am

BabbleRabble

Many places here requires a deposit or credit card at the pump before any gas is pumped ... to many getting away without paying

8:26 am

BabbleRabble

too many

8:26 am

hurshy

i am one who acknowledges that gas prices MUST go up in order to encourage the purchase of more fuel efficient cars by americans. the prices ought to reflect the actual costs to the environment with which we will have to reckon.

8:26 am

smores

passed a law a couple years ago here, lose your license if you pump and run

8:27 am

smores

noooooo

8:28 am

BabbleRabble

if gas prices reflect reserves and usage, the US has five percent of the reserves and uses 25 percent

8:29 am

MollyL

I agree Hursh. No matter how high gas prices go, I still see people driving around in their big ass SUVs. And most of them are young singles who have no need for such a big vehicle.

8:29 am

hurshy

yeah - never go off road, either. just think SUVs are cool.

8:29 am

Hello Molly!

BabbleRabble

Humphrey Bogart, with his signature cigarette in mouth.

From actor Humphrey Bogart, from Dutch surname Bogart (“keeper of an orchard”), from boomgaard (“orchard”), cognate to English boom (“piece of wood”)/beam + garden. Senses of selfishness and excess evolved from the original 1960’s use meaning “keep a joint in the mouth instead of passing it on”, recalling the actor’s signature practice of constantly keeping a cigarette dangling out of his mouth, even while talking. Other senses of “bullying” or “tough guy” also originated in the 1960’s and recall the actor’s various movie roles.

Another potential origin of the vernacular comes from Humphrey Bogart's role in the film The Treasure of the Sierra Madre in which his character, Dobbs, becomes increasingly selfish with the gold mine that he shares with his two partners.

Completely disagree, Mimicat

Some supported the troops, but not the war.

I actually meant to say those that didn't support the troops should be sent---not the war. That "war" should never have been. And why are we still in Afghanistan? I totally agree with you BR.

10:14 am

crosshair

this is my tidbit of the day in honour of all soldiers ,american and canadian who served and died,served and live and still serve..

10:14 am

crosshair

With a hero's greeting we will welcome him,
With hero's speeches we will honor him,
With a hero's ending we will bury him,
That's the sad and silent song of a soldier.

And comfort his family with a telegram,
We regret to inform you we have lost a man,
But we gave him the highest medal of the land,
That's the sad and silent song of a soldier.

We know what an awful price he had to pay,
But the enemy was contained for another day,
We trained him well, but he would have wanted it that way,
That's the sad and silent song of a soldier.

Oh, the weary wounded they wait by his side,
Wondering why they hadn't also died,
the picture of victory on its pride,
That's the sad and silent song of a soldier.

And the flag is at half mast wet with foreign rain,
Ignored by the stranger he had helped to train,
To him it was duty, to them it's a game,
That's the sad and silent song of a soldier.

At Arlington he's lowered down without a pause,
And his native land welcomes him with open jaws,
And the tombstone reads such a noble cause,
That's the sad and silent song of a soldier.

Now a moment of silence for the broken man,
While the president proudly crows "we'll never bend",
And cheers their replacements marching off again,
That's the sad and silent song of a soldier.

And the flag draped coffins are a sailin' home,
And the waves are a watchin' as the engines drone,
As the ship draws near, hear the bugle moan
The sad and silent song of a soldier.

10:14 am

Up and down, lynxxx, he's been having some nausea, but was up and walking, and just got his catheter out.

2:53 pm

Jillyjill

Not his epidural catheter?

2:54 pm

uusue2

No, the other one.

2:54 pm

Jillyjill

Yay!!

2:54 pm

uusue2

The epidural did come apart when he got up to walk, but they put it back together.

2:54 pm

lynxxx

Sounds like good progress. I always like (fruit)yoghurt for nausea

2:55 pm

MollyL

The "other" one, : D Bet he's glad to have that out.

2:55 pm

uusue2

He can't eat anything yet, lynxxx, not even water

2:56 pm

lynxxx

Poor love

2:56 pm

smores

he can't even have water

2:57 pm

uusue2

No, he still has a nasogastric tube draining his stomach

Probably another day or two, Jill.

Although he is starting to pass gas into the ileostomy bag, which he says is a very strange sensation.

still resting his digestive system, I think. I assume that once they start to see action they will get him more nutrition

3:10 pm

uusue2

thanks, bugs, it is always good to hear about people who have been through this

3:10 pm

uusue2

jill, he's on 5% glucose now, clear solution

3:11 pm

Bugsaw

like Frank, he had a good woman who never stopped loving him and that made all the difference

3:11 pm

uusue2

awwww.....

3:11 pm

I had no idea that just saline was enough to keep one hydrated and nourished.

molly (and all others concerned about AnnieBrook) - I just heard back from mom. she emailed and snail mailed annie and has not heard anything back. she's hoping that annie and bobby are with her daughter in connecticut.

3:20 pm

Jillyjill

WooT WooT WooT lynxx!!

3:20 pm

Jillyjill

*sends positive thoughts* to anniebrook...

3:21 pm

uusue2

((((annie)))))

3:21 pm

welki

i'm wondering if mom should get in touch with anyone in nyc to maybe do a welfare check on annie

3:21 pm

welki

(or at least knock on a neighbor's door)

3:21 pm

MollyL

I would think that Annie's daughter is making sure that Annie is okay.

3:22 pm

welki

how silly of me not to think of that *boink*

3:22 pm

welki

then why were you concerned, molls? just because she's not been around?

3:25 pm

welki

still, would be nice to know she's okay - wherever she is.

3:25 pm

MollyL

Because it's not like Annie to not check in, at least with Mom. I doubt Annie's daughter would check in with internet friends if there had been any problems. I'm sure it's just an extended lack of power.

3:27 pm

welki

there should be official protocol for these things :)

3:27 pm

Jillyjill

We went to a luau our last night in Kona, both couples on each side of us were Sandy victims, both still without power, one from NJ, the other Long Island...

3:28 pm

MollyL

I know I'm not a city person, but I think 27 floor up with no power for a week is a scary thing.

3:28 pm

Jillyjill

Don't worry Mols...hubby has strict orders to post under me if anything should befall me....

3:28 pm

MollyL

3:29 pm

i agree - we had a fire alarm go off at work last week and i was thankful my office is on the 2nd floor (of a 20 story building)

bichon ...who is that sweet creature in your profile?

4:37 pm

bichon

I mentioned in my profile that we are fostering a Shih Tzu rescue, Watson. He is an absolute joy to have inthe house.

4:37 pm

IndiaJan

He looks a little chilly :)

4:38 pm

mo

has he lost his coat?

4:38 pm

bichon

He was found emaciated and right now he's with us so we can fatten him up. Ordinarily he wears a sweater, but I need a "whole body" picture for the rescue organization

4:39 pm

bichon

Yes, he was all matted [even over his eyes and he had to be shaved.

4:39 pm

IndiaJan

Poor little dude

4:39 pm

bichon

He's gained some weight and when he's well enough, he will be neutered and have surgery on his leg. Then a lucky owner will have him

4:40 pm

bichon

It's good that he was found when he was. He was close to death.

4:40 pm

mo

poor soul ... glad there is someone out there to give him love and attention.

4:40 pm

bichon

I don't know if he ran away or was tossed out. But, he is the sweetest little thing.

4:41 pm

IndiaJan

He certainly is adorable..even shaved down..sweet face:)

4:41 pm

bichon

I've never had a Shih Tzu before. Very delicate compared to my Bichons

4:41 pm

mo

wish I could give him a cuddle.

4:42 pm

IndiaJan

I love bichons..little bundles of fun

4:42 pm

bichon

I'll give him one for you. My two Bichons were found in a similar situation.

4:43 pm

IndiaJan

I have a mixed breed little one...poodle/yorkie

4:44 pm

mo

ty bichon ...

4:44 pm

IndiaJan

You have a liitle one too mo?

4:47 pm

bichon

Toy Poodle, Mo? Must be really tiny, like a Shih Tzu. I don't know how Shih Tzu's get.

4:47 pm

mo

India ... no but we look after our nephews black labrador and she is so intelligent and loveable.

4:48 pm

mo

bichon ... that is a picture similar to a friends pooch.

4:49 pm

harpjane

nbs

4:50 pm

MollyL

Teach flushes the chat log : D

4:50 pm

bichon

I compared the picture with one on the internet. I don't see any Bichon in him. The rescue organization places Bichons and Bichon mixes

4:52 pm

mo

I cannot remember the name of the breed but he looks similar to a shih tzu.

4:53 pm

MollyL

Good of you to take him in Bich. That's a lot of dogs in the house, you must really love them.

4:54 pm

bichon

It is our pleasure. He has brought us much happiness. We will be so sad when he leaves for his forever home

4:56 pm

mo

I admire people like you .... I dont think I would be able to part with them .

4:57 pm

5:02 pm

hi sue .... how is Frank.

5:04 pm

uusue2

hi mo, he is tired and nauseous, but doing a little better than yesterday. Walked farther.

5:05 pm

mo

good to hear it ... it sounds as if he is improving .... my best wishes go to you both.

5:06 pm

uusue2

thanks, mo, it will be a long journey back to health but we are on the way.

5:06 pm

mo

must be off now .... goodnight.

5:06 pm

uusue2

night!

5:08 pm

MollyL

What a rip off to be nauseous when you haven't eaten in days.

5:08 pm

uusue2

he is terrified of the pain of even trying to vomit, so has been fighting it, successfully so far.

5:09 pm

uusue2

another rip off - he naturally has very low blood pressure, which is usually a good thing, but a lot of medications lower your blood pressure (like painkillers and antinausea meds) so they can't give him as strong a dose

5:10 pm

MollyL

Well that sucks.

5:11 pm

uusue2

nevertheless he is doing pretty well. Having a nap right now so I am babbling quietly :-)

5:20 pm

MollyL

Is there a way to Babble loudly? : )

5:21 pm

uusue2

well, one could swear loudly at Enable, I suppose :-)

5:21 pm

5:40 pm

Lizlin

Good morning everyone. Sue - hope Frank is feeling a bit better this morning (afternoon)

5:41 pm

smores

I've only played on my laptop which is much larger than this one

5:42 pm

uusue2

hi liz! He's quite tired and has been having some nausea. He did walk all through the halls this morning (probably wore himself out), and his catheter is out. They've started him on a little glucose (was just saline), so this is progress.

5:42 pm

smores

Hiya liz

5:43 pm

Lizlin

Anaesthesia made me feel sick for quite a while - good that he's walking and that he's had some glucose - even through saline - it's still nourishment. Hopefully a bit of progress every day :)

5:44 pm

cosdem

first in6 please?

5:44 pm

uusue2

I think he's nauseous because his intestines are starting to work a little - he's passed some gas through the ostomy. Also he hasn't had anything to eat since Thursday (and that was clear liquids).

5:45 pm

uusue2

first in6 ends in sometimes vowel, cos

5:45 pm

Lizlin

You're probably right about the reason - I was just saying don't underrate the effect of the anaesthesia on top of everything else!

5:46 pm

uusue2

that is certainly true, liz!

5:47 pm

Lizlin

It must be hard - everyone offering their own advice and comments!!!! Too much input!

5:47 pm

Lizlin

Anyway, hope you're continuing to be well looked after too!

5:48 pm

uusue2

oh, I'll take all the input I can get, liz! better too much than too little. And people are being very nice to me too - bringing me food, and one of my neighbors did our laundry

5:49 pm

Lizlin

:)

5:49 pm

I'm going to nominate Sue's neighbor for neighbor of the year. I can't imagine doing someone else's laundry. That was above and beyond.

true

6:05 pm

Mimicat42

I'm afraid to put a tree up anymore. I have 3 crazy cats who I can just envision hurling themselves at the tree and breaking ornaments and lights. I miss the tree but I'd miss the cats more. Now I have to go to my son's house for Christmas decor.

6:06 pm

uusue2

Hi, mimi! You could decorate the cat tree with cat treats :-)

6:07 pm

bichon

hi Sue

6:07 pm

cosdem

I was concerned with my cats but only had one problem in 5 years.. my cat ran and attacked the tree, it fell on him. never tried it again. also a hint: leave bottom tree empty no ornaments.. harder for cat to reach

6:08 pm

cosdem

the first no6 please?

6:08 pm

Mimicat42

They have already torn a couple of posters off the wall, ripped my shower curtain, bitten through the speaker wire to my computer.....I've had cats most of my life but never ones like these. They were all 3 strays who found me. But I love 'em. Sue, hope things continue to go well and Frank recuperates quickly.

6:08 pm

6:40 pm

Great clue, Brookie.

6:41 pm

Brookie

you got me curious about the karst and the ce6, BR, so I looked them up. ce6 is a single sinkhole, while karst is the whole topography, but they are indeed related (karst topography often has ce6s in it)

8:36 pm

uusue2

and yay teach!

8:39 pm

BabbleRabble

Fun be curious

8:44 pm

Asiatic leguminous herb...say that three times fast.

Sounds like overall he is doing better! And how are you uusue?

9:07 pm

uusue2

I am ok, jilly, had a bit of a meltdown while he was sleeping (because I felt like I could relax), and that actually helped

9:08 pm

stidmama

yes, it has been toxic for many of us, BR -- though I will sometimes check in to see if you and my other friends are here, I am not even playing much of the time. Just as well, I get more done in other things now.

9:09 pm

Jillyjill

((((uusue)))) I know it has been a very rough journey for the both of you!

9:09 pm

uusue2

I have found it to be quite supportive overall; every once in a while people get a bit snippy and then I just go do something else for a while

9:09 pm
