Lizlin

2:12 am
westford

I should be wrapping presents but this is much more fun

Lizlin

Especially if the pressies are awkward shapes
2:13 am
grannyrose

2:14 am
Lizlin

Nest
2:14 am
Lizlin

Oops!
2:14 am
westford

I know. I'm thinking of getting some Santa sacks and putting everyone's gifts in
2:14 am
westford

the gift bags have gone sky high here
2:15 am
Lizlin

Tend to buy gift bags in the reject shop! Do you have that in the US?
2:16 am
westford

we have something similar..called Building 19 but they have a weird oily smell
2:17 am
Lizlin

Never noticed that, so I guess they're ok here!
2:17 am
westford

and they don't open very widely..good for a bread board but not much else
2:18 am
Lizlin

Oh we'll - guess you'll have to stick to wrapping paper!
2:18 am
westford

it's just getting started that's the trick
2:19 am
westford

21 at our house on Sunday
2:19 am
Lizlin

Good music and / or some good tv
2:19 am
Lizlin

Sounds busy but fun!
2:20 am

my darling husband put an old tv/vcr in the dining room so I can watch all my favorite Christmas movies while I wrap
2:20 am
flosey

2:21 am
westford

2:21 am
Lizlin

Kind hubby!

2:21 am

this is just an old portable
2:22 am
BabbleRabble

Haven't had tv since 1999
2:22 am
flosey

I should try to get a little one to have in the office
2:22 am
westford

I have the tv on now and there's a program I've never seen called Posh Nosh..it's a kick
2:22 am
Lizlin

Still makes time pass faster, while wrapping!
2:23 am
flosey

afraid it might slow me down - depending on the programming
2:23 am
Lizlin

Bbl good luck with the grid and wrapping!
2:23 am
flosey

bye for now Liz
2:23 am
westford

sometimes I wish we could get rid of ours bab..although the news will get through
2:23 am
westford

I promise to do it tomorrow liz lol
2:24 am
westford

flosey I hear you aren't going to cook for the holidays..lucky you !
2:24 am
flosey

yes, isn't that great, west
2:25 am
flosey

I bought a special apron for the male chef, plus Christmasy oven mitts
2:26 am
westford

big question..who will do the clean up?
2:26 am
flosey

lol, have been wondering that myself
2:27 am
westford

I really don't mind cleaning up..usually do it as I go
2:27 am
flosey

I don't mind washing the dishes after, but not the pots and pans
2:27 am
flosey

I do that too west
2:28 am
flosey

I don't put my good china in the dishwasher although some friends say they do
2:29 am
westford

I do now but not the crystal
2:29 am
flosey

interesting, I do put the crystal in
2:30 am
flosey

am afraid the heat might fade the colour
2:30 am
westford

I just keep the drying element off
2:30 am
flosey

ah, another friend does that
2:31 am
westford

I open the door and let it all air dry..plus get a nice facial from the steam lol
2:31 am
flosey

lol, can see that happening
2:32 am
flosey

can be quite a blast
2:32 am
westford

and fogs up your glasses too
2:32 am
flosey

yes, could even clear the sinus (es)
2:33 am
westford

the all purpose dishwasher
2:33 am
flosey

lol
2:33 am
westford

is William full of excitement this year?
2:34 am
flosey

before the DW, there was always help and a lot of chatter during wash time
2:34 am
westford

I remember those days
2:35 am
flosey

we are very excited - they're coming over this Friday (staying 2 weeks) so the 'men' of the family will go up to the mountain property to find a tree
2:35 am
westford

won't that be fun
2:35 am
flosey

hubby is really looking forward to it
2:35 am
westford

a freshly cut tree will make your house smell divine
2:36 am
westford

what a beautiful memory for William
2:36 am
westford

and all of you too
2:36 am
flosey

that could take about 3 or so hours
2:37 am
flosey

that's what they're hoping, I can't remember just how much a 3 year old remembers
2:37 am
westford

just between you and me the women are smart to stay inside where it's warm
2:38 am
flosey

and we can have a nice tea and chat uninterrupted
2:38 am
westford

sounds heavenly
2:39 am
westford

you mentioned the chatting during dishwashing..one Christmas at my grandparents all the men did the dishes..my mother has a snap shot as proof
2:39 am
flosey

really looking forward to it, it's been so long - back in Ont. she and I would have tea when she came home from work around 3 or so
2:39 am
flosey

I bet that was a hoot
2:40 am
westford

it was..aprons and all
2:40 am
flosey

what fun, don't believe that has ever happened in my lifetime
2:41 am
westford

if I remember correctly there were about 7 of them
2:41 am
flosey

wow, even some to put things away
2:41 am
westford

both my parents came from big families
2:42 am
flosey

mine did too, 8 in both families
2:42 am
westford

you must have had loads of cousins
2:43 am
flosey

yes - we were the oldest on Mom's side, we were closer to those relatives
2:43 am
westford

Soodle from Ireland said she has 100 first cousins..what fun !!
2:43 am
flosey

Mom's mom lived closer - in fact next door for a while
2:44 am
westford

so did my grandmother
2:44 am
flosey

oh my, would be hard to keep track of them all
2:44 am
westford

I think she said there are some she's never met
2:45 am
westford

I miss the big family Christmases
2:45 am
flosey

Daughter posted on FB our wedding picture on our 50th anniversary, a cousin I haven't seen in 40 years saw it and wrote to me
2:45 am
westford

but my cousin is doing an Open House on Christmas Eve so it will be like old times
2:46 am
westford

oh isn't that nice
2:46 am
flosey

last time I saw him was at his wedding
2:46 am
flosey

wont that be great
2:46 am
westford

lots of the cousins are not in the area but it will be fun to see the ones who are
2:47 am
westford

2 of our daughters are on the west coast..I think next year we'll go out
2:47 am
flosey

a group of my cousins were planning a get together last time I was in Ont. but I came down with a cold and had to pass on it - hoping to see them all next time I go back
2:48 am
westford

flosey when was your 50th anniversary ?
2:48 am
flosey

2011
2:49 am
westford

oh sorry I missed saying Congratulations..
2:49 am
westford

did you do anything special?
2:50 am
flosey

August, had a brief honeymoon in the Adirondacks and then drove west in time for hubby to get back to U - he still had 2 years to go
2:50 am
flosey

had taken a few years off, fortunately, since that was how we met
2:50 am
westford

and it all seems like yesterday, doesn't it?
2:50 am
flosey

we had some friends in and a chef prepared the meal and even cleaned up the kitchen
2:51 am
flosey

yes, in many ways, but a lot of water under the bridge
2:51 am
westford

and in your basement too lol
2:51 am
flosey

lived in BC for first 5 years, then back to Ont. for 30, before retiring here
2:53 am
westford

we've driven through Ont. but never stayed..going to Quebec City in Aug
2:53 am
flosey

not here, fortunately - actually, we don't have a basement here but in Ont. we did have moisture - wasn't a useful basement just contained the furnace
2:53 am
flosey

that will be interesting West
2:53 am
flosey

I regret never having seen the east coast - in all the years I spent in Ontario
2:54 am
westford

but didn't you have some kind of flood..maybe the freezer melting?
2:54 am
flosey

oh yes, here we did
2:54 am
flosey

it was a problem with the filtration system
2:54 am
westford

it's really a beautiful place..but so is the west coast
2:55 am
westford

oh yes, that was it
2:55 am
flosey

I love both
2:55 am
westford

if I remember you came home from bridge to find it
2:55 am
westford

our oldest daughter was in Seattle but has now moved to Bellingham
2:56 am
flosey

yes - hubby went downstairs and discovered it - fortunately, otherwise by morning it would have been a dreadful mess
2:57 am
westford

our basement flooded so often I bought myself a pair of wading boots on eBay
2:57 am
westford

because every time it happened he was away on business
2:58 am
flosey

wow, our downstairs is actually ground level on front and one side, built into the hill, the door is on the upper level at the back
2:59 am
flosey

of course, there are 2 doors to the outside on the lower level
2:59 am
flosey

oh my, so you had to deal with it yourself, tough
2:59 am
westford

did you build when you moved there or is it the family home?
3:00 am
flosey

wish we had been here! we had it built to 'lock-up'
3:00 am
westford

mainly I had to wade through 3 or 4 feet of water to get to the sump pump..the joys of an older home
3:00 am
flosey

we had a trailer that we camped in for a couple of summers before moving here
3:01 am
westford

bet that got old
3:01 am
flosey

our home in Ont. was very old - thus the useless basement
3:02 am
westford

but one day it occurred to me to call the fire department..such cute guys
3:02 am
flosey

sure did - hubby's bro. asked for it, I said as long as I can't see it - ha ha ha it sat in the middle of the field - he owned the property next to ours
3:02 am
westford

and of course they had the water out in a jiffy
3:03 am
flosey

fortunately now it has been sold and we have great new neighbours
3:03 am
flosey

well, you sure are smart, that would never have occurred to me
3:04 am
westford

I think I read about it in our local paper
3:05 am
westford

we had lots of snow and the water came from the snow melting..poured right in through the fieldstone
3:05 am
westford

still I miss that old house
3:06 am
flosey

we have a fire station just down the road (we live on the main road) travels from south end harbour to north end harbour and beyond
3:07 am
westford

I hope you never have to use their services but it's nice that it's so close
3:07 am
flosey

I can't say I miss the old home, but we did have many great times there - the girls were born in Ont.
3:08 am
westford

do they remember it?
3:08 am
flosey

been there west, we had a fire in that house - hubby drove up the street (from work) and discovered the firetrucks etc all there
3:08 am
flosey

oh yes, the kids all went through school in Ont.
3:09 am
westford

were you at home at the time?
3:09 am
flosey

we were there for 30 years
3:09 am
westford

when he drove up and saw the firetrucks?
3:09 am
flosey

no, I was working late that night, they phoned me to tell me not to go home, to come next door
3:10 am
westford

what a phone call
3:10 am
westford

and what a sight for him to see
3:10 am
flosey

it was frightening
3:10 am
flosey

but we were amazed at how well the insurance looked after everything
3:11 am
westford

do you know what caused it?
3:11 am
flosey

every article of fabric was sent out to be cleaned,
3:11 am
flosey

couple of rooms totally redecorated
3:12 am
westford

that smoke gets into everything
3:12 am
flosey

yes, we had a chimney from a closed fireplace in the livingroom that was inspected and approved
3:12 am
westford

good insurance company
3:13 am
flosey

but apparently the heat eventually charred the wood in the floors - 3 of the kids were home and acted very promptly - smoke was seeping through the floor/wall seams
3:14 am
westford

bless those kids
3:14 am
flosey

on damp days for quite a long time, we could still smell the smoke
3:14 am
flosey

yes, one called the FD and another ran downstairs to turn power off
3:15 am
flosey

in was in January
3:15 am
flosey

we were put up in the local Howard Johnson - which was just a couple of blocks from the house
3:16 am
flosey

we had 3 rooms and ate all meals there (that got tiresome)
3:16 am
westford

the ins co really came through for you
3:16 am
westford

I was going to ask if you all had to be in the same room lol
3:16 am
flosey

they did, we were well looked after
3:17 am
flosey

there was only one article that wasn't returned from the Cleaners - daughter had a fur and leather coat - they did replace it, but assumed it was an employee
3:18 am
westford

oh too bad
3:19 am
westford

was it a special favorite of hers?
3:19 am
flosey

my wedding dress was no longer white - smoke damaged, became beige
3:19 am
flosey

I didn't want to see it again
3:20 am
flosey

she was good about the coat, just replaced it
3:20 am
westford

your wedding dress..what a shame
3:21 am
flosey

don't know that any of the kids would have worn it - I was very slim
3:22 am
flosey

daughters were both slim but don't think they'd have fit into it
3:22 am
westford

the least they could have done was send you to Paris for a new designer gown
3:22 am
sprite

good morning Babble friends
3:22 am
flosey

good morning Sprite
3:23 am
westford

hello Sprite
3:23 am

3:23 am
sprite

3:23 am
flosey

flosey

3:23 am
sprite

3:24 am
westford

it was great chatting with you too..we hardly get to do that much any more
3:24 am
flosey

we sure tied up the chog for a while

3:30 am

You know I really do like it but not the getting ready..I need to be rich enough to hire a staff to do all the decorating and cooking
3:31 am

3:44 am
sprite

wow, impressive, rose! And how is that schedule for your body? And mind?
I am pretty good. Therapy is going well and at home with my son there is some progress.
3:46 am
grannyrose

lovely, hun. do so hope it continues so. am using the 'pain away' cream. posterior tendons are quite tight due to all the exercise.
3:47 am
sprite

*sends mellowing vibes to the tendons* I hope it helps (the cream). Still doing exercises?
3:49 am
grannyrose

ruby??? in london??? must get onto the email and find out how she went. hydro finished, concentrating on increasing hours until i reach the 10 hours. i need to build stamina now, endurance and range of movement all good.
3:49 am
sprite

ok :D Well done! And keep on stretching those tendons.
3:50 am
sprite

yes, ruby has taken a short holiday from home, went to london, went to a party even :)
3:50 am
zoozzoom

Hello,All :-)
3:50 am
grannyrose

will do, dear fiend. are you managing well?
3:50 am
grannyrose

hey zozz
3:50 am
grannyrose

um, * zooz
3:50 am
sprite

hiya zooz :)
3:51 am
zoozzoom

Ruby was on babble yesterdy.
3:51 am
sprite

yeah, managing ok. Pain is bad at the moment, but not surprising with the weather what it is. Taking things slowly does help, even though that takes more patience than I have, lol.
3:51 am
sprite

so she made it back home safely?
3:52 am
zoozzoom

Yes, she came back a day early as husband was struggling...but she was fine with that.
3:52 am
grannyrose

lol, know what you mean. still taking it slowly at work. colleagues are all very supportive, and allow me the time i need.
3:53 am
sprite

sounds ok, zooz. Thanks for the update :)
3:53 am
grannyrose

thanx zooz.
3:53 am
zoozzoom

Yw.
3:53 am
sprite

wtg on your colleagues, rose. That makes it much better.
3:54 am
sprite

and how are you yourself today, zooz?
3:55 am
grannyrose

lol, have my personal ice pack in the drug frig.....which they know...and they also are watching me closely...tell me if i am limping...suggest pain killers and/or ice pack.
3:56 am
sprite

wow that is great, good feedback is worth a lot.
3:56 am
zoozzoom

I am well, thanks for asking, Spritey..and if i may say even though it is none of my business..but i am very pleased for you that you are sorting things out with your son..teen years are hard on all the family..lol
3:57 am
sprite

of course it is a bit your business, since I share a part of in in chog :) Thanks for caring, zooz, and I agree - tough on the whole family. We try to take special care that our daughter isn't snowed under... it happens easily when you don't watch.
3:58 am
zoozzoom

too true, sprite..too true.
3:59 am
sprite

tonight another session with the counsellor. Glad to be able to report some progress!
4:00 am
zoozzoom

Progress is normally very slow..but at least it is in the right direction.
4:01 am
sprite

very true. We now know what is troubling him. Solving those issues isn't that easy and some of it we can only watch, but at least now he knows we are there for him. I wish I could still make the bad things go away with a kiss and a hug...
4:02 am
grannyrose

yay, spritey.so pleased that you all are making progress.
4:02 am
sprite

:) Thanks for caring, hun.
4:04 am
sprite

did you all find so many phantoms today as well? I am drowning in them.
4:04 am
zoozzoom

Yes i am sure a kiss and a hug would be a nice gesture..but it is never enough when things are not going right...besides it must be hard for someone his age to show that type of effection towards parents..they try and cope on their own..trying to be a man i suppose..not sure if that made sense..lol
4:04 am
grannyrose

and spritey...no amount of kisses and hugs make the bad stuff go away. just be there now....that is what is important
4:05 am
zoozzoom

I have seen a few phantoms so far..lol
4:05 am
sprite

it does, zooz, and it is very true. My son told me he was trying to be mature, and was finding it was very hard... I was glad to be able to tell him he did not have to be mature, just 16... and that he had a long time ahead of him in which he is still allowed to practise being mature.
4:05 am

4:21 am
zoozzoom

I have put lots of bird feeders up in the garden and meal worms on the ground...i have soo many birds in the garden it`s fantastic to watch.
4:22 am

wow, go4 for you, rose! Especially the last part. Well done!
4:23 am
sprite

oh lovely, zooz. Ruby's husband does that too. It is amazing to see.
4:23 am
grannyrose

oh zooz...so nice. we have young magpies learning to warble...can be very funny at times, their voice breaks, just like a human teenager.
4:25 am
sprite

awww
4:25 am
zoozzoom

LOL..not heard of that before, Rose..don`t get many magpies in this garden.
4:26 am
zoozzoom

Silly question time...how come i have never seen a baby pigeon?
4:27 am
sprite

pigeons start out as little rats
4:27 am
lynxxx

I started feeding the the doves in my garden and was getting about 7/8 at a time...then found out they were spotted turtle doves - very romantic..then read a bit further and found out they were an introduced domesticated bird and more than a bit of a 'pest'. Now I feel guilty for encouraging them
4:27 am
zoozzoom

LOL ((Sprite)p
4:27 am
sprite

:)
4:28 am
grannyrose

sprite, it is so laughable, in the middle of a lovely song, a squawk....
4:28 am
sprite

aw lyn, too bad!
4:28 am
lynxxx

the magpies we have here Zooz are not the same as the European ones - our are nice!
4:28 am
zoozzoom

They are beautiful birds though, Lynxxx no?
4:29 am
lynxxx

very sweet Zooz
4:29 am
sprite

well... isn't that something. Second day my final word is the ubiquitous babblet to4/4. I feel stupid.
4:29 am

we ave a mated pair of wood pigeons in our backyard.
4:29 am

Not for me..but thanks anyway, Spritey.
4:31 am
lynxxx

mmm we don't have wood pigeons down here - but we do have crested pigeons - which make a lovely woop woop noise when they take off somehow
4:31 am
sprite

and not for lyn either... anything you want to have clued, rose?
4:31 am
grannyrose

last year the pigeons brought their fledgling into our yard....it fell off the back of the chair it was sitting on. we laughed until we cried.
4:32 am
grannyrose

finished, thanx spritey.
4:32 am

Those are the time you wish you had a video camera to hand, Rose...lol
4:33 am
grannyrose

and you dear friend.
4:33 am
zoozzoom

Take care, Sprite.
4:33 am
lynxxx

I hate the baby bird thing, you never know when you should interfere
4:34 am
grannyrose

oh yeah, zooz. like the time a flock of rosellas flew overhead. one of the babies flew into the guttering. we had a very stunned bird sitting in one of my roses, wondering what it had hit.
4:35 am
lynxxx

a baby magpie fell out of a plane tree in front of our place and a youngish girl took it home to ring Wildlife rescue...I read later that you should leave it in a bush nearish the nest
4:35 am
zoozzoom

True, Lynxxx they look so helpless but they say do not touch unless it has been left alone for a loooong time..but very hard not to want to help.
4:36 am
zoozzoom

hahaha...we used to get that type of thing, Rose...birds would wash in the bird bath the fly right into our window...lol
4:37 am
zoozzoom

You would here the usual *donk* sound then a dazed looking bird.
4:37 am
grannyrose

and then there was the time mother and baby possom fell ouut of a tree. mother made it back up into the tree...baby was stunned. used gauntlet gardening gloves to lift baby back into tree.
4:37 am
lynxxx

this is making me remember to look up what domesticated ducks eat...we had one white duck, then two, and the other day another 4 turned up...all on the canal near us. BBS
4:39 am
zoozzoom

aww sweet, Rose..hope the mother thanked you..lol
4:39 am
grannyrose

lol, not that i remember, zooz
4:40 am
lynxxx

oh great - what NOT to feed domesticated and wild ducks - Bread - guess what everyone feeds them
4:40 am
zoozzoom

If they are anything like the ones around here, Lynxxx they eat almost anything...judging by what people throw to them.
4:41 am
zoozzoom

Well they seem to thrive on bread...how strange.
4:41 am
grannyrose

mind you, passing motorists were probably wondering what a teenager( my 14 year old) was doing on a step-stool out the front of our home.
4:41 am
movieman

We get all sorts in our garden....magpies, greenfinches, goldfinches, chaffinches, sparrows, wood pigeons, blue tits, great tits, long-tailed tits, collared doves, you name it
4:42 am
lynxxx

besides pellets - tomatoes, eggs, cottage cheese, snails, worms
4:42 am
movieman

Oh, and robins
4:42 am
movieman

And starlings
4:42 am
zoozzoom

That sounds wonderful, Movieman.
4:43 am

I get the same robin come into my garden...even right upto me.
4:43 am

hi MM
4:43 am
zoozzoom

Cheese?...really.
4:43 am
movieman

Hiya all
4:44 am
lynxxx

cottage cheese though
4:44 am
zoozzoom

wonder what is inside the pellets?
4:45 am
zoozzoom

Probably breadcrumbs..lol
4:45 am
grannyrose

lol, zooz, one spring we had a baby magie...it would walk through our garage, from front to back, and then stand beside me, to check out what i was digging up as i weeded the back garden.we called it dingbat.
4:46 am
lynxxx

not sure, but don't think I will start buying it...6 white ducks down there but also around 80 native ducks (and not forgetting pigeons and seagulls)...it would be like Hitchcocks "the Birds".
4:46 am
zoozzoom

Waiting for those juicy worms you were digging up...they know a good meal when they see one, Rose.
4:47 am
grannyrose

hope you aren't referring to me, zooz. rofl
4:47 am
lynxxx

must have thought Rose was their personal waiter
4:47 am
zoozzoom

True, Lynxxx once you start..they will be depending on your handouts.
4:48 am
grannyrose

yeah, lyn
4:48 am
zoozzoom

HAHAHA, Rose...what are you like :-)
4:49 am
grannyrose

well, not so slimey, i can assure you
4:49 am

and slightly larger.....
4:49 am
zoozzoom

I give the birds in my garden fat balls...but they do make a hell of a mess on the ground.
4:50 am
lynxxx

I am a bit wary about asking you what *** ***** are?
4:50 am
zoozzoom

lol...((Rose))
4:51 am
zoozzoom

lol...they are seeds mixed with fat...so they can take all day pecking at it to get at the seeds.
4:52 am
lynxxx

oh? what sort of fat - lard? and you make them?
4:52 am
zoozzoom

You ladies are terrible..lol
4:53 am
grannyrose

ahhh, that would be because we live in the antipodies?
4:53 am
zoozzoom

You can make them..but i am lazy and buy them...so no idea what fat it is.
4:53 am
grannyrose

and what ladies???
4:53 am
movieman

We also feed our birds fat balls, along with sunflower hearts, niger seed, and mealworm
4:53 am
grannyrose

lyn, you see a lady in this chog?
4:54 am
movieman

And peanuts
4:54 am
zoozzoom

Ok it is time for me to soak in the bath and get ready to see parents...been great talking to you guys.
4:55 am
grannyrose

later, zooz. have a go4 one
4:55 am

Just checked- the fat seed balls are a UK thing - we don't do them here
4:55 am

4:57 am
grannyrose

nearly 10pm here...think i need to go...see you all at the flip. happy babbling to all.
4:57 am

OK - and the fat part is to keep those poor cold english birds healthy during the cold winters. Which is why we don't need them
4:57 am

4:58 am

I am sorry MM...always so hard to lose a pet. and esp when they are still quite young
4:59 am

too sad, mm. it is never easy to lose an animal we have cared for, for so long.

hurshy

your cat went insane?
9:01 am
jmcnrick

but her daughter is coming down next weekend for her (my sister's) birthday so that will make her happy
9:02 am
hurshy

i'm doing ok. my cats have always been insane. :) well two of them.
9:02 am
jmcnrick

yes. . . first she refused to come to the second floor for two weeks and i traced that to the fact that i was poisoning us both with carbon monoxide poisoning. . .
9:03 am
hurshy

wow, well that was fortunate that it led you to the discovery then
9:03 am
hurshy

where was the CO coming from??
9:03 am
jmcnrick

then after i got the furnace repaired she started to refuse to go on the first floor which created major logistic problems since her food and the door outside and her. . . pee place were all coming on the lower levels of the house
9:04 am
jmcnrick

a stopped up chimney with a hole in the stack into the basement
9:04 am
jmcnrick

yes the dear save my life probably. . .i was slowly being poisoned
9:04 am
hurshy

hmm so why did she refuse the first floor then?
9:05 am
jmcnrick

she seems to be overcoming whatever was the problem with the first floor and i moved a kitty litter box up stairs. . . fortunately i was painting upstairs and she only peed on the plastic. . . a well mannered cat
9:06 am
jmcnrick

no clue hursh. . . i would bring her down and she would immediately jump on a table or a higher chair and wouldn't even come to the floor to eat. . . for a couple of days
9:07 am
hurshy

once, my cats had a litterbox issue because i have cat genie which is self-washing, water comes in and cleans it, well it clogged and didn't drain and i think i was away or something - they peed in boxes with packing material, plastic bags, anything that was laying around like that - very thoughtful indeed
9:07 am
hurshy

now i have TWO cat genies so we're much better off.
9:08 am
jmcnrick

i would leave her sitting on the table for a while and eventually she would jump off and streak to the stairs and run up to the second floor. . . i would throw her out side during the day but i worried she was not eating
9:08 am
hurshy

poor kitty
9:09 am
jmcnrick

now she distains to come to the floor long enough to eat and to come over to my chair but she is still running like mad!
9:09 am
jmcnrick

it was very stressful for me and my sister kept saying to take her to the vet and i thought What could the vet say other than she was nuts?
9:10 am
jmcnrick

anyway we seem to slowing moving past whatever scared her so i am relieved. . . still throwing her out today
9:10 am
hurshy

you never know, vets know things
9:10 am
jmcnrick

what was on my first floor? that would take a physic not a vet

Don't believe what you hear on US news! Most of us support you.
10:00 am
Michnick

I see we see eye to eye on many things. There was a massive push for US citiizens in Israel to send in absentee ballots. We realize that we won't change the election (absentee votes are only counted if there is a close race ora doubt) - but we wanted our voice heard.

Yeah. We got your back, Mich.

10:03 am
suefrad625

I bet if our Presidents kids school was attacked, they, if not already, would have armed guards in civilian cloths all in that school.
10:04 am
Michnick

Ironically, I was told that the Israelis brought the iron dome to a military supplies show in Germany (?) well, somewhere in the EU. The other nations were awed but asked, if you are being attacked by air, why don't you just send in a military response? When they realized it was Israel, they all understood.

good evening all - hello sue

uusue2

hi wv!
6:22 pm
wvteach

hello sue
6:23 pm
wvteach

hows your day going
6:25 pm
uusue2

ok, wv, we had a long orientation visit at the cancer center, and they really seem to have thought of everything
6:28 pm
wvteach

thats wonderful that they inform you so thoroughly - where is it located
6:28 pm
uusue2

right next to the hospital, about 3 miles from our house
6:29 pm
wvteach

even better that it is right there
6:30 pm
uusue2

indeed. We are a smallish town, but with a university, and not far from Chicago. so there are a lot of resources nearby
6:30 pm
wvteach

didn't know if you would need to travel in to Chiucago
6:31 pm
wvteach

we are also a small town with the university - and with all the problems of the university (and students) it is really nice to have the advantages that are available
6:34 pm
uusue2

I took him to the University of Chicago for a second opinion, and it was good to be able to do that - it's about an hour and a half drive - but I'm happy that we don't have to do that too often
6:35 pm
uusue2

our local cancer center is affiliated with Loyola and also with the University of Wisconsin (which is about 2 hours away)
6:37 pm
wvteach

those are special resources to have
6:38 pm
uusue2

indeed they are!
6:41 pm
wvteach

am I remember ing from the earlier chog that Frank starts chemo on Wednesday
6:41 pm
uusue2

yes, and then every week thereafter for six months
6:42 pm
uusue2

he gets Erbitux (monoclonal antibodies) every week, and then every other week he gets FOLFIRI, which is a combination chemotherapy
6:42 pm
wvteach

will keep you both in my thoughts and prayers
6:42 pm
uusue2

the Erbitux-only appointments are short, about 1.5 hours, but the FOLFIRI ones are long, 5 hours, and then they send him home with a pump for another two days
6:42 pm
uusue2

thanks, wv, all the love and support we are getting from everyone really means a lot to us!
6:43 pm
wvteach

wow - had no idea what was involved
6:44 pm
uusue2

me either! It's been quite the learning experience.
6:44 pm
wvteach

glad that you have the support of frriends right there - and then you can know thast all of us here want to support you both all that we can from this distance
6:45 pm
uusue2

yes, all of it is good, and important!

6:49 pm

silly yahoo. Why would it label you as spam? Got it.

Because I'm not in your yahoo address book.
6:49 pm

Mimi, it does. chat is kind of neurotic with it's silences.
8:44 pm

that is true, nrkii! there was a rash of pretty tiny grids.
8:44 pm

I agree with sue....ebb and flow. I just like having somewhere to connect with people that is friendly and if it is also lively, even better. If not, that's OK, too.

Do y'all know that peanut butter and canned sliced peaches are really good together.
9:43 pm

9:43 pm
uusue2

(I'm serious - I'm looking for things that Frank might like to eat during chemo)
9:45 pm
gapeach

Sue, I put some peanut butter in a small bowl and spoon the peaches over them (make small slices). I guess peanut butter is good with most things. LOL
9:45 pm
uusue2

ah. well. perhaps we will try that. And I agree about the peanut butter.
9:46 pm
gapeach

Sue, the Peter Pan brand, reduced fat, creamy, will be so easy to mash up with the peaches. I bet he will be able to eat it.
9:47 pm
uusue2

good thinking! I am making a note of that.
9:49 pm
gapeach

Hon, you might want to add a little of the peach juice to the peanut butter first and blend into the PB with a spoon and then add the peaches and mash them into a rather more liquid texture.

But mustard is OK on hot dogs, right, tor?

Sure. Mustard, onions, relish ..

I agree with your profile.

That's Harry Callahan's opinion. I tend to agree, but it doesn't bother me if you put ketchup on a hot dog ..

I'm not a ketchup on hot dogs girl myself. : )

we had an old veteran fellow here in our little town who bought a food trailer and opened a Chicago-style hotdog stand in his side yard, down next to the local canal and lock. He didn't keep ketchup there for the patrons, and cast big scorn upon those who were naive enough to ask for it. Darn good hotdogs, though - just about everything else imaginable available as condiments. Sadly, old Vic has passed on now.

I wish. I just saved for a very long time.

We have a secret Santa thing this year which kind of pisses me off because I would like to actually give that person a present and know it was from me and I actually thought what they would like #firstworldproblems

herinfernallady

Torg no you tend to find that stores that don't specialise in p.c type stuff don't have a clue on prices. They tend to be really expensive or under priced

The store is amazing. I was in there last night. I tend to go later at night as I can't stand crowds. It is a bit sad how negative people are on facebook.
11:37 pm
rbud

I agree, both about avoiding the crowds and fb as well. fb seems to draw out the confrontational types, that's for sure.

Today I was shopping and I had this man that worked at the store hand me the phone because the other store was taking too long to answer. He was not helpful at all and I ended up organising to get the item my self. Zero help from him. I really did feel like saying "No no that is fine I can do it myself"
11:40 pm
rbud

well, that's just wrong. I think I'd have had to report him to someone in authority.

I have only had one new machine it was great. Previous machine before was a second and this one is a second too
11:55 pm

they tried to see if they could make the lemon out to be our fault somehow for a little bit, but it was definitely not something we did. Bent up inside frame, but not dented outside. No way we did that.
