DH just announced that he doesn't want to live with me any more. Good luck with that! I told him maybe his "last" ex-wife would have him back, then fixed him his apero and walked away
2:58 am
sprite

good for you, ruby. Sillly man, doesn't realise how lucky he is.
2:59 am
rubyfoo

he's annoyed because fridge isn't making ice cubes and even tho I make them for him in little glasses, he wants it fixed, NOW!
2:59 am
sprite

he'll need help packing his suitcase ;)
3:00 am
sprite

he mustn't take out his frustration on you. Am glad you don't let him.
3:00 am
rubyfoo

hahah, I'll help with that!
3:01 am
sprite

I thought you might :)
3:03 am
sprite

ruby, darling, it won't kill him to not have ice cubes for a bit. I promise.
3:04 am
rubyfoo

I make him ice cubes with little glasses. But at 9:30AM, please!
3:04 am
sprite

you are outta ya mind! Forget about the ice. Put the drink cold until the fridge is repaired. Jeezz.
3:08 am
rubyfoo

the freezer is cold, just won't make ice; I think there's an air bubble in the water line. And the fridge part, is too cold, so stuff freezes. I don't think we need a new one, but there is no one here who repairs GE's
3:09 am
sprite

oh dear, that is a problem. Ah well, tell your DH that sprite said he must count his blessings. Seriously.
3:09 am
rubyfoo

I'm not going upstairs
3:10 am
rubyfoo

at least I can hide here and not have him bother me - except maybe by phone, and then I'll hang up
3:10 am
sprite

nah, no reason you should. Let him stew.
3:13 am
rubyfoo

what's so sad about this is that I'm doing the best I can, considering that this is pretty depressing. I still make his meals, take care of the dogs and organize things as best I can
3:13 am
rubyfoo

amen
3:14 am
rubyfoo

sorry. Is there any Zanax in the PB?
3:14 am
sprite

the man is severely depressed, ruby, and deep down very very scared. He cannot even see everything you do for him, he knows he depends on you and is dead scared of it.
3:14 am
rubyfoo

or even xanax?
3:15 am
sprite

am4 to that ;)
Sure, come into the PB, have a nice cuppa, a bit of Stroopwafel, and a Zanax.
3:15 am
sprite

or Xanax. Hell, take both!
3:15 am
sprite

and a big hug from me
3:16 am

Ruby, I am actually acutely curious about the correlation of sugar consumption and depression. I notice when I cut sugar out or even WAY down, I feel much better and think clearer.
3:46 am

3:46 am

3:50 am
Marmar

I am actively trying cut it totally out. I have a fam member that is suffering from depression and has been for years, and has high sugar consumption. I can't seem to get him to try to cut it down. Excersize is also an amazing tool against depression.

it is a nice fish also.my fav way of prepping fish is to make my own herb and spiced flour coating,place the pillets in milk for a minute,shake it off roll in the coating mixture and fry in pan with just a dab of butter and in the last minute give it a splash of lemon juice and fresh ground black peppercorns and a dash of sea salt

To change the topic slightly I do remember an instance of a very ripe Pont L_Eveque cheese being left in the car on a hot day during the ferry from France.

1:35 pm

Basque isn't related to any other language, right?
1:35 pm
EvaNadine

im not the expert, but it is its own language, yes. though it DOES sound a lot like spanish, to me. (but then, i also dont speak spanish.)
1:35 pm
Douglas

Wouldn't it be unusual if Basque wasn't related to any other language?
1:36 pm
EvaNadine

i DO know that, despite being from the Basque region of Spain, if you tell them theyre spanish, they get extremely upset!
1:36 pm
bichon

Being net to Spain, it might sound like it, but I think the origins of it are unknown
1:37 pm
hego

I think it has celtic origins.
1:37 pm
hego

It's nothing like Spanish.
1:38 pm

we must look it up some time.

It may be pre-Indo European. Very isolated remnant

Hi Kate - if you are still there. You need Babble Expert to do that - here is a lionk to the zip file.....http://r46.me/BabbleExpert201\n10410.zip
3:18 pm
TraderKate

hi lynn, i'm still here - drowning in a sea of letters that don't make words lol. someone posted the link, i have it up - running in chrome, but i have never been able to get it to automatically enter the words in lickety and babble at the same time, but it's still nice to have both on the screen together - saves flippi ng back and forth
3:20 pm
lynxxx

can you see the Lickety Add button up at the Top.click on that and put it where you like, you can resize it too. Enter youir words into that and it will all happen for you

4:05 pm

smart thinking! I just stopped a few years ago too - blood pressure was up - made a big difference. Too expensive to smoke now anyway
4:05 pm
sarah6girls

my bp is high last time was done was 155-94
4:06 pm

no smoking will make it drop - as well as making a lot of other things a lot easier
4:07 pm
sarah6girls

:) am on day 3 of diet to as was upset when i got on and was over 20 stone :(
4:09 pm
lynxxx

I always fluctuate quite a lot too - don't be disheartened. You probably should only weigh yourself once a week...just make sure you do it at the same time of day
4:09 pm
stidgmere

I have no idea how much a stone is. If I were you, I'd just drop it. No use carrying arround stones in your pockets.
4:10 pm

hi Stigmere - don't we all wish losing weight was that easy
4:11 pm
sarah6girls

Absolutely. Losing weight, what a drag. We should ban scales as being detrimental to happiness.
4:13 pm
lynxxx

best thing I ahve done for a verfy long tgime was stopping smoking and started going to gym - I may not have lost all the weight I should but feel a 100 times better

sorry for all these typos
4:13 pm

4:36 pm

It is one activity that one sees definite improvement and there is completion which also is a reward. Thinking back in history, there have been many times in the past when people didn't have "extra" clothes they were not wearing. We are so blessed with plentitude.

5:37 pm
jmcnrick

5:37 pm
crosshair

giving me wine is like feeding a pig a strawberry,bring on the vodka!
5:38 pm
jmcnrick

well i like pigs. . . they are very smart
5:38 pm
crosshair

some pig! good ole wilbur
5:38 pm
jmcnrick

if i were to give up meat it would be pork. . .but giving up bacon and spareribs has been too tough for me
5:40 pm
crosshair

mmm bacon and ribs.they are what stop me from going to fish only
5:40 pm
Nef

hi again everyone. The grid started out well; but now I have 61 left and am blind
5:40 pm
stidgmere

Oh Crossy. We just must have a potluck dinner with Babblers in the near future. When the thaw is complete and we can travel without the mud.
5:40 pm
jmcnrick

5:40 pm

5:42 pm
crosshair

mmmmmm.now i want some nice sticky sweet ribs...
5:42 pm
Nef

Go stidg! I'm encouraged now to keep going on the grid!
5:43 pm
jmcnrick

my ribs are texas style and therefore not sweet. . .but they sure are tasty. . . i may have to grill tomorrow night (I always buy extra ribs in the summer for winter barbeque)
5:44 pm
Nef

How big is it, jmc? My DH made a spice rack for me several years ago and it holds about 40 bottles of spices (which isn't enough now...)
5:44 pm
crosshair

mmmmmm
5:44 pm
crosshair

supposed to be 17c!!!!!! this sunday.may have to cook some up on the bbq
5:44 pm
jmcnrick

it is huge and holds all the weird spices i use once in a blue moon---42 by 50 inches
5:45 pm
Nef

Wow! Why so warm, crossy?
5:45 pm
jmcnrick

goodness a veritable heatwave crossy!
5:45 pm
crosshair

do not know nef.we have never had this in january
5:45 pm
Nef

jmc; that's even bigger than mine! I'd love to see it! :-D
5:45 pm
crosshair

last 3 years or so our winter have been nothing
5:46 pm
crosshair

we are losing tons of the perma frost north of the tree line as well and it is a heck of a mess
5:46 pm
jmcnrick

i also have some niches for some pretty glasses i own and the olive oil bottle. . . and random vinegars on the top. . .
5:47 pm
crosshair

lol sorry to interrupt your nifty new spice rack:)
5:47 pm
jmcnrick

well i am sorry to hear that crossy. . . that is bad news indeed. when i was in kenya there was hardly any snow on kilimanjara . . .we a all in deep shit
5:47 pm
Nef

2 years ago we got snowed in several times (and we live in town!); last year was terrible -too hot and no snow; this year started out with lots of snow but it's melting this week. (I hope we get more snow soon
5:47 pm
jmcnrick

not a problem i can carry on 2 or more conversations at a time
5:48 pm
crosshair

we are indeed jmc.when the permafrost melts,it created mudslides and sinkholes and the land becomes useless
5:49 pm
Nef

We use a wine bottle rack for our olive oils and balsamic vinegars. There's a specialty shop of oils and vinegars we love to go to and are big fans of both
5:50 pm
crosshair

shipping lanes are opening up north now that have never seen a vessel before and we fight with the russians,and we go into what was once pristine lands with oil supercarriers;(
5:50 pm
jmcnrick

how nice nef what a good idea. . . i have a drawer full of oils and sauces but like having the olive oil handy
5:50 pm
Nef

how far north of you is that crossy? It's scary how much of the polar ice caps we've lost in the past 10 years.
5:51 pm
stidgmere

I'm down to the 10 letter words. Don't know any 10 letter words. Impossible.
5:51 pm
Nef

stidg; an 10 is something that a priest does with oil
5:51 pm
jmcnrick

no they are actually fairly easy words stidgmere
5:52 pm
Nef

(I don't know the other one though)
5:52 pm
jmcnrick

and the other one is a really annoying person who picks a fight
5:52 pm
jmcnrick

and the 11 is the plural of the thing the priest does with oil
5:53 pm
stidgmere

This one was the person who is against you. Like Notre Dame vs. Alabama. Only they were not very much an****** whatever.
5:53 pm
stidgmere

Yes. Fired works.
5:53 pm
jmcnrick

whoo hooo stidgmere!
5:54 pm
stidgmere

Well. That was that. I must wander over and practice Gershwin's Prelude II which is very pretty and I figured out the crossed hands can be done without the fancyness.
5:54 pm
Nef

YAY, stidgmere!!!! WTG!!! (and in time to fix supper too! :-D
5:54 pm

many of the fours are face-palm material
6:14 pm
smores

brb
6:14 pm
Lizlin

face-palm????
6:15 pm
welki

yeah, when you suddenly realize something you've known all along and smack your forehead with your palm
6:16 pm
welki

sort of like, D'oh! I knew that!
6:16 pm
Lizlin

Duh! Of course!
6:16 pm
Jillyjill

LOL...seeing a lot of 4's I haven't used for a while...
6:16 pm
welki

but - not polite to face-palm anyone else *lol*
6:17 pm
MollyL

Wouldn't that be a forehead palm then? : P
6:18 pm
Jillyjill

*smacks self...must remember latin ending...*
6:18 pm

6:18 pm
MollyL

Lots of self abuse going on here.
6:18 pm
smores

maybe not polite welki but oooh sooo tempting sometimes...lol
6:19 pm
welki

forehead-palm, cheek-palm, eyebrow-palm, lip-palm, nose-palm -- probably easier to bag them all together as face-palms
6:19 pm

Evening, all! Here's a funny demotivator for you--going to try to post a different daily. Imagine a picture of a grizzly bear standing at a waterfall with a salmon in his mouth. Caption: Ambition. Text: The journey of a thousand miles sometimes ends very, very badly.
7:29 pm
Dorens

hah! you haven't demotivated me yet, mimi. think of all the salmon who eluded said grizzly bear!
7:29 pm
Jillyjill

7:30 pm

There are tons of these from despair.com. They have posters, calendars you can personalize and t-shirts. I just love the twisted nature of 'em.

I hate playing on this win8!
7:33 pm
MimiCat

I'm sure you'll love it, Jilly. They have a t-shirt I plan to order that simply says "Vintage" on it. Truth in advertising!
7:33 pm
Jillyjill

LOL...we're in the grid...ma6/7
7:34 pm
MimiCat

Whoa! The other day a guy referred to me as "miss" instead of "ma'am" and I almost kissed him!
7:37 pm
MimiCat

I'm in severe denial....
7:37 pm
Jillyjill

I'm so dang tired of "Sweetie"
7:38 pm
MimiCat

Somehow I never get called that---could it be a Montana thing or just a comment on my personality?!!
7:41 pm
Jillyjill

Why, Molly?
7:44 pm
Jillyjill

Yep...me too molly...can operate it but keeps not communicating with router
7:45 pm
MimiCat

Good to know---think I'll stick with 7.
7:45 pm
MollyL

Jill, I don't think it's Windows 8 that isn't communicating. It has to be that your device and the router are not communicating.
7:47 pm
MimiCat

Going to go have dinner. See you tomorrow. ((Jilly))

8:18 pm

8:20 pm

8:22 pm

8:23 pm
MollyL

Sue, how are you doing? Didn't you have some health issues of your own?
8:24 pm
uusue2

hi Molly, I am having some trouble with my neck (which is causing arm and chest pain) but physical therapy seems to be helping
8:24 pm
Nef

her shoulder/neck, Molly
8:24 pm
uusue2

I'm also having some issues with my blood pressure but have found the right level of medication that seems to have it under control
8:25 pm
MollyL

Good Sue, glad to hear things are better for you.
8:25 pm
Nef

do you meditate, sue? It really helps lower BP if you can meditate at least 15 minutes a day too.
8:26 pm
uusue2

I have done in the past, nef, probably it would be a good idea again
8:26 pm
Nef

(I know, who has time; right? I always try to get up early to do it and end up falling asleep! :-/
8:26 pm
MollyL

And if 15 minutes seems too long at first, try three sessions of five minutes. Nef is right, it's good for your whole body.
8:27 pm
MollyL

There are a lot of guided meditations on line if you need help easing back into it.
8:29 pm
Nef

never thought of that, Molly. I may try it and see if it helps me stay awake!
8:29 pm
uusue2

there are some people in my UU church who get together for a weekly meditation; I went a few times but then got too busy (excuses, I know!)
8:31 pm
uusue2

ha, got some long words, nbs!
8:32 pm
Nef

sometimes I think it's hard to get away to do things; try it at home and see if that helpstoo.
8:32 pm

8:35 pm
Nef

it's worth it, dan2. I couldn't get past 97 until I did.
8:40 pm
MollyL

I have a friend who says that if you are too busy to meditate, it's a good sign that you need to meditate more. : )
8:40 pm
uusue2

you are probably right, Molly!

Ooh!! Good thought!

did you teach today stid?
9:37 pm
stidmama

yep. 7th in the morning and 4th in the afternoon. A good day...
9:38 pm
Nef

doing okay, stid. I even took DH to a retired Federal employees mtg at Old Country Buffet today; his first "social" outing since surgery
9:38 pm
Bugsaw

I am glad you are getting the days you need to enjoy it and still have time to rest
9:38 pm
stidmama

how did that go, Nef? I bet he was glad to get out.
9:38 pm
stidmama

I wouldn't mind a few more "multi-day" assignments, Bugs, but yes I am getting "enough" in general.
9:39 pm
Bugsaw

it snowed here today and I was so glad that I wasn't at school where the kids lose their minds hoping to get sent home early
9:39 pm
Nef

I'm glad you had the younger class in the afternoon, I'd imagine that middle school kids can get more rambunctious then
9:39 pm
stidmama

Just wish I were a little more popular with the local school. I get a LOT more calls from the ones an hour away...
9:39 pm
Bugsaw

you might notice that teachers don't need as many days off just after Christmas and Spring breaks.
9:40 pm
stidmama

actually glad you pointed that out, bugs... I was wondering why the pickings are so slim this week! LOL
9:40 pm
Nef

he choked once, but learned a lesson (he told me): that he has to pay attention to eating and swallowing! He did well other than that one time.
9:41 pm
Bugsaw

yes, they have had a little rest and are not so rundown. it doesn't last tho
9:41 pm
Bugsaw

poor DH Nef. Choking is scary
9:41 pm
stidmama

glad it was only once!
9:42 pm
Nef

*I* was scared; he was surprised.
9:43 pm
stidmama

well, maybe this will encourage him to pay attention when he is doing his exercises!
9:43 pm
Nef

I was worried I'd have to do the Heimlic maneuver in front of an audience!
9:44 pm
stidmama

oooooooh. My fav babblet is in the grid...
9:44 pm
stidmama

brb, must find that icon again.
9:44 pm
Nef

I hope so; but that's connecting too many dots I think.
9:44 pm
dan2bit

i think any time ma6/36 is in the grid, it should turn to glowing green letters on black tiles
9:46 pm
Nef

very true, dan2! :-)
9:46 pm
dan2bit

also can I have a clue for the 2nd an10 ?
9:46 pm

9:51 pm
stidmama

YAY dan!
9:51 pm
Nef

they aren't that hard or weird, stid. the an 10/11 is something a priest does (and pl) with oils
9:51 pm
dan2bit

the 8+ letter words are all actually very normal. Some of the 7's on the other hand...
9:51 pm
stidmama

oh! THAT ma 6/36! *facepalm*
9:51 pm
Nef

YAY, dan2bit!!! WTG!!!
9:52 pm

9:53 pm

9:53 pm

I had NO idea, Nef, because I didn't have the word yet...

herinfernallady

As it has been Christmas my neighbours across the roads tiny garbage bin was over flowing. Our neighbours that we share a bin with are away so I went across the road and emptied some of theirs into ours and told them our bin was free this week. I get to the bus stop free bus because the ticket machine system wasn't working
10:04 pm

instant karma is SO nice
10:05 pm

very nice, herin! :-)

The neighbours little boy who is about 3 or 4 is so adorable. Loves to help himself to our house and cats when they are on our side of the road

Friendly reminder: Pasting urls in the chat log makes it blow it's width. Using tiny url works better. : )

Keeping cool I hope, herin :)

herinfernallady

I am in long shorts and 3/4 shirt. SO it isn't insane o hot today
10:08 pm
Lizlin

It sounded horrendous over the past few days
10:08 pm
Bugsaw

herein I just heard on the radio that a whole town on Tasmania has been burned out. how horrible
10:09 pm
herinfernallady

Yep Bugs a couple of little communities have lost everything.
10:09 pm
Lizlin

But no loss of life, so far I think, which is the most important thing.
10:10 pm
herinfernallady

My parents live there and thankfully it is no where near them. They even see smoke they leave. The evacuation kit is still ready to go.
10:10 pm
Bugsaw

I am glad to hear that. they just kind of tossed out that fact while talking about the heat you are having
10:10 pm
herinfernallady

Friday was hairy and I had watched their fire service website on and off all day just to be sure.
10:10 pm
Lizlin

I'm glad they don't try to be heroic. Better to be a coward in those conditions.
10:11 pm
herinfernallady

Bugs - http://www.themercury.com.au/ This is the Tas local paper.
10:11 pm
herinfernallady

Liz were my parents live the firefighters have pretty much told them - get out when you see smoke as you are on your own.
10:11 pm
Bugsaw

checking it now thanks
10:12 pm
herinfernallady

Also another huge issue is down at Port Arthur were people went to is their cars are stuck there because they were ferried out back to town.
10:12 pm
Lizlin

I just remember stories from black Saturday - I'd not been here too long. I understand people wanting to protect property but life is more important.
10:13 pm
Nef

thanks, herin for posting that.
10:13 pm
herinfernallady

No worries.
10:14 pm
herinfernallady

Liz kind of used to it when we lived in the Blue Mountains and nearly lost the house in the fires in 1980
10:14 pm
Lizlin

Must've been scary. My hubby was in Victoria on Ash Wednesday and we were talking about the fires that were close to him then.
10:17 pm
herinfernallady

I was about 3 and I remember very clearly the fire man coming to the house and telling dad to leave as there was a grass fire that the train brakes caused. Turned into a bush fire. I remember Dad stuffing tennis balls into the gutter down pipes and filling the gutters with water. We then left and went to the 'city'. The wind changed and the back wall needed repainting. The poor fireman that lived next door lost everything. I remember this like yesterday even though I was about 3
10:18 pm
Lizlin

I can understand why! These things leave a lasting impression.
10:19 pm
herinfernallady

My mother can't remember but I can.
10:19 pm
herinfernallady

I think we lost the outback dunny in the first fires just before I was born.
10:20 pm
Lizlin

Well I hope you and your family (and everyone else of course) stay safe and that things calm down pretty quickly.
10:20 pm
Bugsaw

I never would have thot to fill the gutters with water. pretty clever
10:21 pm
Lizlin

Cleverer still to block the drainpipes with tennis balls
10:21 pm
Lizlin

I guess if you live here, you get to learn all sorts of tricks to help in these circumstances.
10:22 pm
Lizlin

5 left!
10:22 pm
herinfernallady

I find it amusing when people say 'O I have to make up a kit for emergencies" when I have one already in my head like a constant file.
10:23 pm
herinfernallady

Bugs your in Canada yes?
10:23 pm
Bugsaw

yes. on the west coast. it is a rain forest so fires are not our concern but earthquakes are
10:24 pm
Bugsaw

we are waiting for The Big One.
10:24 pm
herinfernallady

Do you get horrid snow ins?
10:25 pm
Bugsaw

not where I live. it is beautiful. the snow falls on the mountains behind us but usually does not last long down here near the ocean
10:25 pm
jmcnrick

hi all
10:26 pm

Hi jmc :)

10:26 pm
Lizlin

Hi stid :)
10:26 pm
Bugsaw

and stid!
10:26 pm
herinfernallady

Because I was going to suggest to keep a car baby bottle warmer in the car and some small baby bottles and food in a small bag for emergency snow stops or over on Think Geek they have a coffee cup car charger.
10:27 pm
herinfernallady

Hi JM and Liz
10:27 pm
jmcnrick

sorry to here it is fire season down under again
10:27 pm
jmcnrick

i love think geek
10:28 pm
herinfernallady

JM praying it isn't as bad in the next few weeks.
10:28 pm
stidmama

Lady, most of us in the PacNW (pacific northwest) and BC keep chains in the car, gloves, blankets, extra water, granola bars... I carry games, towels, shovel as well.
10:29 pm
Bugsaw

I keep a candle in the car because it will keep the car warm without killing me if I am ever trapped. I have games and shovel and food but towels are a good idea stid
10:29 pm
stidmama

even down by the water like Bugs and us we know that if snow doesn't get us, other hazards might. Earthquake and landslide hazard prep is very much like snow prep!
10:29 pm
herinfernallady

My g.f and I saw the baby bottle warmer for the car and exclaimed 'Constant warm coffee YAH'. Which led to my thought of using it for warming food like soups.
10:29 pm
stidmama

never thought of candles, but I have a few extra chemical handwarmers, just in case.
10:30 pm
jmcnrick

i have a kit of critical papers in a cabinet by the front door to grab if i ever have to run for it and a hand crank flashlight in the car
10:30 pm
stidmama

Generally speaking, I travel on well-maintained and well-traveled roads so even if something happens I probably don't have to wait too long for help.
10:30 pm
Bugsaw

do you guys have an earthquake kit stid? I have all the elements but am afraid to put them all in one place in case that is the one place that gets crushed.
10:30 pm
herinfernallady

JM I saw this and if I lived in the States it would be in my car - http://tinyurl.com/aas22vw
10:30 pm
stidmama

My great-great aunt had a small metal filing case by the back door for just the same way.
10:31 pm
Nef

I'm popping in and out now and just read what you guys put in your cars for emergencies. Here in MN we have space blankets, 3 cans (1 inside the other: one to pee in, 1 for the candle and 1 to melt snow in); toilet paper; warm clothes, shovel; maybe some sand; and some hard candy too.
10:32 pm
stidmama

Well, I don't have a "kit" but we have some things in the cars, some in the wellhouse, some in the house. Our home is single-story so even in a big shake we can probably get in to grab supplies. Have to hope so, the generator attaches to the house, and then sends power to the well. If the house goes, we'll have to hike to Mother's.
10:32 pm
herinfernallady

Did you see that couple that had everything in a fire safe safe in Queens that survived the fire after Sandy?
10:32 pm
Lizlin

fireworks! Silly last word! un 6 / 24
10:32 pm
jmcnrick

i have an inverter in my car. . .just not shaped like a coffee cup
10:32 pm
stidmama

Never thought of three cans, Nef. Will have to consider this.
10:32 pm
herinfernallady

Have you seen the cans from Japan that self heat?
10:33 pm
stidmama

Inverters are good to have too, jmc. We have one in each car (tom and his "gadgets")
10:33 pm
jmcnrick

i also have an emergency book in my car to read. . . more likely to get stuck waiting for a tow truck than anything else
10:33 pm

10:36 pm
Nef

stid, if it's 40 below zero; you don't want to step out of the car to answer Natures call; you'd freeze your tush.
10:37 pm
Lizlin

My lovely hubby went out to get fruit and petrol and came back with flowers! How lucky am I?
10:37 pm

Lizlin

Lovely story in that link heron :)
10:37 pm
Lizlin

herin :) sorry - auto correct
10:37 pm
herinfernallady

The biggest problem with Tasmania is they are not on natural gas and require electricity which means generators and generators to pump the petrol.
10:37 pm
stidmama

very nice, liz! did he get the fruit and petrol? *curious mama grin*
10:38 pm
Lizlin

Yes - those too!
10:38 pm

My parents will have to pay for water soon as they are running out.
10:38 pm

10:39 pm
