I just posted a sad message but the flip happened -- not only did my d-i-l's brother die of lung cancer a couple of weeks ago, but today my son had to take their beloved Lab mix to the vet for his final sleep. They are devastated.

At the risk of putting myself in the PB, if you can have deicer, why can't you have icer?

12:57 am

VolleymomDee

good question

12:57 am

Lizlin

Or reicer?

12:58 am

melonheadjujube

I always ask that. Pitter is not allowed either, even though Lehman's Hardware in Kidron, OH sells a cherry pitter.

12:59 am

VolleymomDee

or the pitter patter of little feet :)

12:59 am

Lizlin

I also used to have a cherry pitter - or rain pitters on the window!

12:59 am

Lizlin

BBS - enjoy the grid - sleep well if I don't see you before!

1:00 am

VolleymomDee

bye, liz

1:00 am

McLeach

Small world... someone on Babble right at this minute is familiar with Lehman Hardware in Kidron, OH!

1:00 am

melonheadjujube

Never been there, though some family members have.

1:01 am

McLeach

I used to work there. Back when it was much, much smaller than it is now. I was maybe the 2nd non-Lehman-related person to work there.

1:02 am

McLeach

Sorry, it's just that Kidron is such a small town. Funny to see someone here right now that has even heard of Lehman's.

1:03 am

broll

Everyone in northern Ohio knows Lehman's. Me too.

1:04 am

melonheadjujube

We used to go to Atwood lodge—now demolished—for Thanksgiving.

1:04 am

broll

And I have a cherry pitter.

1:05 am

melonheadjujube

Wow. You worked there. I get their emails. Fascinating stuff. I want one of those beeswax burns-forever candles.

1:06 am

melonheadjujube

OK, I have to be at work in 6 1/2hours. Missing one E, 3 Isnad the N for nbt, Missing the 10 for nbs.

1:07 am

melonheadjujube

got the N.

1:07 am

McLeach

Yeah. When I was a young'un. Back in the earlier 80's I prepared catalogs for mailing for them, and then went on to work for them full time for a while in 1988-89 or so.

1:07 am

VolleymomDee

tr 10 prefix for 3 + abbreviation for street + body part for listening + opp of out

Lizlin

Hi Demi - how are things? :)

1:40 am

demi

Good thanks. trying to stay cool. in the middle of a bit of a heat wave. summer has come late!

1:41 am

Lizlin

I hope it improves here before our Vancouver friends arrive on Monday.

1:41 am

demi

more rain?

1:42 am

Lizlin

A bit - just got washing dry - how mundane and boring is that?

1:42 am

Lizlin

I guess we could cope if the weather was like today - it's just such a big holiday for them - I'd love it all to be perfect!

1:42 am

demi

i did ironing yesterday in front of movie...

1:43 am

Lizlin

"Retirement"

1:43 am

demi

one can only hope that the weather improves. will try and send some sunshine up to you!

1:43 am

Lizlin

Puhleeeze!

1:44 am

demi

you can have some and we'll have some of your rain.

1:44 am

Lizlin

Are you and R around to skype this weekend?

1:45 am

demi

at this stage we are. we have some plans but nothing confirmed. however we will make time for you & P.

1:45 am

Lizlin

Sounds good :)

1:46 am

Lizlin

Haven't seen you for a while - can catch up on news etc. Yes, I know that the boys chatted on the phone but 2nd hand news is not the same!

1:47 am

demi

What day is better for you? we have a long wknd here so can do monday for while. I understand about the 2nd hand news and often with R he doesn't pass everything on.

1:48 am

Lizlin

Monday no good - got to be at the airport at lunchtime. Guess we'll be in cleaning mode in the morning!

1:48 am

Lizlin

Most likely no babble time next week :(

Good morning, kiddos. Marigold, TY for that simple clue. Good start for me.

5:53 am

Anniebrook

good morning, scrabbs...Im up early toda

5:53 am

*today

5:53 am

Anniebrook

much earlier than usual

5:54 am

Lizlin

Hi scrabbs and Annie - that was a great clue from Marigold!

5:54 am

Scrabbler

I did not sleep well last night.

5:54 am

Anniebrook

Hi Liz, yes it was.

5:54 am

Anniebrook

scrabbs, you and me both

5:55 am

Scrabbler

Liz, my friend just returned from a 3 wk trip to Australia and NZ. We will have lunch Friday and I will hear details and see photos.

5:55 am

Lizlin

Sorry to hear that - hope your days won't be too stressful!

5:55 am

Lizlin

Hope your friend enjoyed her?self here - I think it's a lovely country and I've only seen a small part of it!

5:56 am

Scrabbler

I am on call today which adds to my stress. The on call doc must answer the phone triage nurses' questions all day. Then, of course, take calls after the office closes.

5:57 am

Lizlin

:( No time to nap on the job then!

5:57 am

Scrabbler

My friend said NZ was gorgeous--hiking and kayaking.

5:57 am

Lizlin

Hope to get to NZ before too long. I have an NZ friend who lives in England - perhaps next time she visits home ...

5:58 am

Scrabbler

And I am going away for 4 days with a cousin, to visit another cousin. So I am already having separation anxiety about leaving my bunnies.

5:58 am

Lizlin

Hope you've got someone good to look after them for you!

5:58 am

Scrabbler

I have a bunnysitting neighbor.

5:58 am

Lizlin

:)

5:59 am

Anniebrook

Then they wll be take care of properly.

5:59 am

Scrabbler

She is from London and has lived here 25 yrs. She is such a nice, nice woman.

5:59 am

Anniebrook

You will miss them but you will be back soon

6:00 am

Lizlin

I'm sure she'll love them for you - and I'm sure you'll have a wonderful 4 days - even with missing the bunnies.

6:00 am

Scrabbler

She uses words such as "whilst." I love it.

6:01 am

Lizlin

You've made me wonder, whether I use whilst now!

6:02 am

Scrabbler

And when she says "bahb" we don't know if she means her husband "Bob" or our neighbor "Barb."

6:03 am

Lizlin

I'm guessing it'd be your neighbour!

6:03 am

Lizlin

Though perhaps it depends where in the UK she's from!

6:04 am

rubyfoo

6:04 am

6:06 am

rubyfoo

but I've foud the question mark and exclamation(poor moly)

6:06 am

Lizlin

Yay!!!!!!!

6:06 am

Anniebrook

Your'e getting there

6:06 am

6:07 am

6:07 am

Yahoo!

6:07 am

Lizlin

That's really good news - not long now at all. Which airport and will someone drive you?

6:07 am

Anniebrook

YAY11

6:07 am

Anniebrook

!!!

6:07 am

rubyfoo

I'm writing like I've barely been through 5 yrs of school.....

6:08 am

rubyfoo

she is coming to Lyo and my friend Catherine is driving me. I convinced Burt that it was better for him to stay home with Rufie to prevent instat jealousy with the new pup

6:08 am

Anniebrook

good thinking

6:09 am

Lizlin

sounds like a good idea. Will you have a way of introducing Raffie to Rufie?

6:09 am

Anniebrook

E's and I's all over the grid

6:09 am

Lizlin

To try to minimise jealousy, I mean.

6:09 am

rubyfoo

but Burt continues to sy things like he wnts to die, etc. Trying to get thinks to be more cheerful, ut I wish I could put anti depressants into his food

6:09 am

Scrabbler

A few minutes ago I decided to look for words starting with vowels.

6:09 am

Lizlin

That's so hard for you but perhaps the new pup will cheer him!

6:10 am

Anniebrook

6:10 am

Anniebrook

6:10 am

rubyfoo

I hope so, but there is ittle else I can do

6:10 am

Scrabbler

Out with it, Annie.

6:10 am

Anniebrook

Raffie will cheer up him. He will make him feel better.

6:10 am

Lizlin

I hope that you have some means of keeping yourself more upbeat, so it doesn't get to you!

6:10 am

Scrabbler

rice

6:11 am

Scrabbler

Free clue!

6:11 am

Anniebrook

Scrabbs free clue of the day!!!

6:11 am

rubyfoo

he truly loves Rufie but is so caught up in his own depression, that it's hard to snap him out of it

6:11 am

rubyfoo

ty for the free clue

6:11 am

Scrabbler

It takes time, Ruby.

6:11 am

Lizlin

I hope the pup will - esp if she's got life and character - she won't give him a chance to feel down - well, I hope not.

6:11 am

Anniebrook

ruby, wont the doctor give him an antidepressant. you can put it in his food.

6:12 am

rubyfoo

I'm doing the best I can and, as much as I still miss my Ruby, I am managing

6:12 am

Anniebrook

scrabbs, are you saying it takes time to climb out of depression?

6:12 am

Lizlin

Our dog died over 30 years ago - I still miss him!

6:13 am

rubyfoo

when he see his MD. he is a different person. So I think that part of this despair is a performance for my benefit. I've also sent his daughter a ticket for June

6:13 am

Scrabbler

Grief takes time. Depression can be chronic or episodic

6:14 am

rubyfoo

in the past, when I had a major depression in th 70's, it took 2 wks for the anti d's to kick in. Perhaps they are more sophistiated now, but i still feel funny about slipping them into his food

6:14 am

Scrabbler

Modern anti-depressants, e.g. Prozac, etc, take 3-4 wks for onset.

6:14 am

Lizlin

You must do whatever you feel is right for you - and Burt of course.

6:15 am

rubyfoo

his depression is chronic. ruby's death only eacerated the situation

6:15 am

rubyfoo

exacerbated*

6:16 am

Lizlin

Have you discussed it privately with Burt's doctor? I mean the fact that his behaviour differs with different people?

6:17 am

rubyfoo

unfortunately, his doc is your basic Fr macho man and doesn't really believe e

6:17 am

rubyfoo

this friday we're seeing his cariologist and maybe he'll listen to me

6:17 am

Lizlin

That

6:17 am

Lizlin

That's unhelpful :(

6:21 am

Lizlin

Time for me to go - we have a wedding tomorrow afternoon / evening but also have to be up early. Enjoy the grid (I'm struggling a bit now!) Have a good day :)

6:21 am

Scrabbler

I must depart too and get ready for work. I'll check back in if I have a chance.

6:22 am

6:44 am

MollyL

Speaking of Oz, I don't have high hopes for the new movie. I think it was terribly miscast.

6:45 am

rubyfoo

love the royal growl!

6:45 am

Anniebrook

Who's in the new movie?

Heard they were doing a re-make, who's Dorothy?

6:47 am

smores

I thought you would love the "woof,woof" ruby :)

6:47 am

MollyL

No Dorothy, it's about the wizard. James Franco, Mila Kunis, Michelle Williams and Rachel Weisz.

6:48 am

rubyfoo

love all woofs!

6:48 am

smores

Ah...

6:48 am

MollyL

The female characters play Glinda and two other witches.

6:48 am

rubyfoo

but nobody can replace Billie Burke1

6:49 am

smores

So not a remake,but another tale of OZ.

6:49 am

Anniebrook

no dorothy, no lion, no tinman, no scarecrow, bah!

6:49 am

MollyL

It's based on another Baum book, about how Oz came to Oz before it was Oz. How's that for a sentence.

6:50 am

Anniebrook

Makes sense to me, Molly

6:50 am

rubyfoo

when my son was sall, I tracked down many of the Oz books. Unfortunately his (wicked) stepmother has the all now

6:51 am

rubyfoo

sma;ll

6:51 am

MollyL

I loved all the Oz books.

6:51 am

smores

Actually, it's a good sentence.

6:51 am

rubyfoo

so did he

6:52 am

smores

I had heard they were making an Oz movie, I thought it was a re-make, glad to hear I was wrong.

6:52 am

MollyL

It was such a treat for me, as a child, to find out there was more to the story than the movie.

6:53 am

MollyL

I think after the horror that was "The Wiz" Hollywood has learned it's lesson on Wizard Of Oz remakes.

6:53 am

smores

Yes, I certainly hope so.

6:54 am

MollyL

I'm still so disgusted that they are doing a remake of Dirty Dancing.

6:55 am

smores

Agree

6:55 am

rubyfoo

you are kidding....said nel, hoop

6:56 am

rubyfoo

hpefully

6:57 am

rubyfoo

time for a lie down

6:58 am

rubyfoo

*woof*

6:58 am

Anniebrook

arent there anymore original thinkers around in hollywood?

6:58 am

smores

Hopefully the movie will spark interest in the Baum books again, doubt many youth today know there is more than the movie.

6:58 am

smores

Bye Ruby, enjoy your rest dear :)

6:58 am

MollyL

Apparently, not many, Annie.

6:59 am

Anniebrook

I hate to see them mess around with the beloved classics. Someone mentioned The Wiz, it was terrible

7:00 am

smores

Me too Annie

7:02 am

smores

Not to keen on movie remakes, although I did enjoy Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.

7:03 am

MollyL

Disney did a remake of Cinderella too, which paled in comparison to the original Leslie Ann Warren one.

7:03 am

smores

Hmm, guess I missed that Molly.

7:04 am

MollyL

You didn't miss much. Teen star (at the time) Brandy played the lead.

7:05 am

bichon

Did anyone watch "Parade's End"? We are watching it, but I'm interested to hear from others.

7:07 am

smores

Hi bichon, no, haven't seen it

7:09 am

MollyL

It sounds good Bich. I don't get HBO.

7:10 am

bichon

The acting is great, but it is very slow moving

7:12 am

bichon

Is anyone finding this grid daunting?

7:13 am

MollyL

Any grid with 12 vowels is daunting for me.

7:14 am

bichon

and having a 10 letter word to boot

7:14 am

Anniebrook

vowels daunt me

7:15 am

pabtrek

vowels, too many vowels, can't find words because of the vowels aaahhhhh

7:15 am

MollyL

Vanna, I'd like to return a vowel please. Maybe 5.

7:15 am

Anniebrook

pabtrek, I identify with you esp. words beginning with vowels

7:15 am

Anniebrook

LOL

7:16 am

8:02 am

smores

Wow, me either, not since my grandmother

I wasn't aware that housecoats still existed.

8:04 am

Anniebrook

*head

8:04 am

bichon

I call it a "shmatah" Annie

8:05 am

MollyL

Just a jackknife, has ole Mack Heath babe, and he keeps it, outta sight

8:05 am

Anniebrook

A schmata is a schmata is a schmata

8:05 am

Uneaixoise

my grandmother did yard/garden work in her housecoat -- pants would have been scandalous LOL

8:05 am

smores

whatsa schmata you?

8:05 am

Anniebrook

Macy's doesnt carry schmatas, it is lounging apparel

8:06 am

Anniebrook

Hi Une :)

8:06 am

bichon

Of course Macy's doesn't carry schmatahs. But S. Klein on the Square did

8:06 am

smores

lol...funny Une

8:06 am

Uneaixoise

hey, annie :-)

8:06 am

bichon

A schmatah is literally a rag [Yiddish from Hebrew]

8:06 am

Anniebrook

bichon, You are bringing back fun memories.

8:07 am

smores

lol...I know bichon..just being silly

8:07 am

Uneaixoise

have heard the word but didn't know it was a rag . . .

8:07 am

MollyL

To me, a housecoat is not a bathrobe. It's a cotton, short sleeve, three quarter lenght button down the front thingy.

8:07 am

Anniebrook

You dust with a schmata

8:08 am

bichon

Schmatoot in Hebrew is a rag. The Schmatah Trade is the dress or garment industry

8:08 am

bichon

Yes, you dust with it too.

8:08 am

Anniebrook

Exactly, Molly

8:08 am

Uneaixoise

yes, molly -- often with snaps down the front :-)

8:08 am

smores

Wow...forgot also was called a duster

8:08 am

Anniebrook

So where can I find a schmata with snaps down the front?

8:08 am

Uneaixoise

yes!!

8:09 am

MollyL

Often paired with fuzzy slippers of some sort
: D

bichon

I remember wearing them as a teenager. In those days, apartments were heated warm enough so that you could wear them in the winter

8:12 am

MollyL

And you wear your hair up in a scarf/bandana when you dust in your duster.

8:13 am

bichon

Annie, I won a trophy at a crossword puzzle contest on Sun. Best Rookie

72 Temple Owl

1:48 pm

Jommie

I haven't got the ir 6 yet, but i've got the ir 4 :).

1:49 pm

MollyL

JMC, I want to go smack every newscaster who is using the term "snowquester".

1:50 pm

uusue2

it's a tardigrade, peri, a little beastie crawling on moss. It's about a millimeter long.

1:50 pm

periwinkle

me too, Molls. no snow here, thank goodness

1:50 pm

Jommie

Ir 4 is also a girl's name (and the name of a song).

1:50 pm

TraderKate

or a stately flower

1:50 pm

MollyL

It's been precipitating all day here, but nothing is sticking. YAY!

1:50 pm

1:51 pm

1:51 pm

periwinkle

Nor'easter always gets to me

1:51 pm

Jommie

Lol, I think we should get more points when a word has more than one meaning ;).

1:53 pm

TraderKate

still looking for the 2 ir 6's... come out, come out, where ever you are.....

1:53 pm

MollyL

Nor'easter doesn't bother me if they don't say it a thousand times an hour. We used to play a drinking game with that one, when I was in college.

1:58 pm

TraderKate

1:58 pm

jmcnrick

2:08 pm

MollyL

When I was a kid, I always thought it was a game for eggheads. : D

2:09 pm

jmcnrick

so are they going to deliver the mail today?

2:09 pm

jmcnrick

it was a big favorite in my house. . .that and some games we made up: colonizing was one; bombs away was another

2:10 pm

jmcnrick

but we also played monopoly and chess and scrabble. . .

2:10 pm

MollyL

My cousins used to play bombs away. But it had more to do with being gassy than dice and game pieces.
: P

2:10 pm

bichon

Monopoly and Clue, but I grew up in the '50's

2:11 pm

jmcnrick

ah yes clue too

2:11 pm

TraderKate

lol @! molly

2:11 pm

jmcnrick

bombs away was a mobile and vicious form of keep away/dodge ball my sister invented. .

2:12 pm

MollyL

Oh, sounds like what we called maul ball.

2:12 pm

bichon

We played card games, including "Knucks". It was evil

2:12 pm

jmcnrick

each person claimed a country and then stood somewhere in the yard and the first person with the ball would declare war on one of the other countries.

2:13 pm

MollyL

Sounds much more intriguing than Spud.

2:13 pm

jmcnrick

you had to try to hit the person you declared war on and whereever the ball ended up they had to stand and then they could declare war and throw the ball

2:13 pm

Jommie

Jmc: we played that game in the Netherlands as well! :)

2:14 pm

MollyL

I contend we all had a lot more fun than kids who sit in front of video games.

2:14 pm

jmcnrick

if the ball hit your arm you lost your arm and you could not use it to throw, same with leg (hard standing on one leg) and if it hit you in the body or head you died. . .you got 3 lifes. . .

2:14 pm

jmcnrick

i was just thinking that bombs aways sounds a lot like an in person video game. . . and the ball hurt!

2:15 pm

jmcnrick

did you jommie? interesting that kids make up the same games worldwide. . .

2:15 pm

Jommie

We also played a ball game using the curbs of the sidewalks.

2:15 pm

jmcnrick

i will have to tell my sister who made up the rules that. . .

2:16 pm

uusue2

we are at the cancer center - nurse just asked Frank if he had liver metastases. He didn't, not that we know of, anyway. Not a question one likes to hear.

2:16 pm

4:29 pm

MollyL

Bich, I have yet to find a pizza dough recipe that will pass muster. I'm trying yet another one.

4:29 pm

Jillyjill

,,,hey....I'm in good company with peri and cosdem!

4:29 pm

MollyL

The best (company)

4:30 pm

Jillyjill

Now off to grab a bite, hopefully will be back to at least get the 7's and halfway....

4:30 pm

crosshair

best is a nice thin crust italian crust.i hate doughy ones

4:30 pm

MollyL

That is the problem. All the dough recipes I have tried come out too bready.

4:31 pm

bichon

2 tbs olive oil, 1 and 1/3 cups warm, non-chlorinated water. Put in bread maker [or bowl] Add 1 tbs yeast, let sit a min. Add 4 cups flour, put 1tsp salt on top and start mixing and kneading

4:31 pm

cosdem

hi all

4:31 pm

bichon

What do you mean by bready?

4:31 pm

MollyL

I like New York style pizza crust. The kind you can fold.

4:32 pm

MollyL

Hi Cos.

4:32 pm

crosshair

it end up more like a loaf of bread than a true crust

4:32 pm

zoozzoom

Hello, Cosdem.

4:32 pm

crosshair

the crust should enhance what is on top,not overpower it

4:32 pm

bichon

We don't make that, but I do like the NY crust. We bake in a tile lined oven, heated to 550 degrees

4:33 pm

bichon

Then the oven is turned to 450 and baked for 11 minutes [with toppings on]

4:34 pm

crosshair

in the bistro we had a igloo style wood fired oven.thing ran at 600 degrees! used to toss them right on the hot flat stones and cook for 3-6 minutes!

4:34 pm

crosshair

used to use sterile wet cleaning rags on the end of a garden hoe to wash the stones when hot

4:35 pm

crosshair

was old world cooking at it's best

4:37 pm

cosdem

the 2nd as7 please

4:37 pm

crosshair

you would think it would not be clean but i know of no bug that can live in 600f!

4:38 pm

MollyL

as + electricity that makes your hair stick up

4:39 pm

bichon

We never wash the stones, just scrape off any spillage. The oven makes the stones hot enough

4:40 pm

MollyL

I don't use soap on my non-stick cookware. Just really hot water, soak then wipe down with a soft cloth.

4:40 pm

MollyL

No soap on the cast iron either.

4:40 pm

crosshair

each morning,i would use the hoe to pull any wood bits out.then broom the stones.then start a new fire in one corner of the igloo then when up to temp a good stone wash

4:40 pm

crosshair

no,no soap

4:40 pm

bichon

True Molly, I don't either, but I don't bake bread on non-stick.

4:41 pm

bichon

MollyL

Cos, I read that Smash got horribly low ratings last night.

4:45 pm

cosdem

i havent even watched an episode this season yet!

4:46 pm

MollyL

If I thought they were going to get to season 3, I would say they need to get rid of McPhee. She is awful.

4:46 pm

cosdem

did they cut back on the singing? i heard they did

4:47 pm

MollyL

Somewhat. The problem is, the writing this season is not as good as last season.

4:47 pm

cosdem

they have a new writing staff right?

4:48 pm

MollyL

That would not surprise me. It seems like a totally different tone to the writing. And I don't mean that in a good way.

4:49 pm

cosdem

lemme checkk their odds for renewal

4:49 pm

cosdem

lol just google nbc renewals.. and theres an op-ed saying nbc will have to renew some shows but what???? since they all suck in ratings

4:50 pm

MollyL

The idiots has a great show in The Event and they canceled it.

4:51 pm

MollyL

The only other show I watch on NBC is Parenthood. And that has gone downhill.

4:51 pm

cosdem

4:51 pm

cosdem

4:54 pm

Wyrd

4:55 pm

MollyL

There are 2 ta7. One is more delicious and the other is someone who does a kind of dance with clicky things on their shoes.

4:56 pm

Jillyjill

That I know....sorry if gruff,not meaning to be.. ((hugs))

5:18 pm

cosdem

no mom was getting way too personal discussing my dad and my uncle's problems with their lower gentilia

5:18 pm

Wyrd

no ones got time for that!

5:19 pm

cosdem

but I caught her in a lie that really upset me

5:19 pm

Jillyjill

Totally agree wiht you cos....some topics are NOT mother-son appropriate

5:20 pm

crosshair

and now it is time for crossy's tidbit of the day(and it has nothing to do with guns,gun laws or gun views,promise!!)

5:21 pm

crosshair

http://tinyurl.com/a6ohfuy

5:23 pm

MollyL

Ugh, lies from your Mother are NOT cool.

5:24 pm

cosdem

especially when it was about why she didnt come to my wedding.

5:24 pm

cosdem

getting more pissed by the minute... ugh. brb

5:26 pm

MollyL

I can't imagine A) Not going to one of my kid's weddings and B) lying to them about that. Not cool on either count.

5:27 pm

cosdem

How do I put this delicately....

5:27 pm

cosdem

The reason they couldnt come to my wedding was because my Dad had to "get something worked on in his lower gentilia area" and today Mom says he never got it done.. and im like wait...... what? end ended the call

5:27 pm

Jillyjill

Never lied, but also could not attend my son's marriaage...could not get time off work on short notice...btw, that marriage only lasted 3 years

5:28 pm

cosdem

I cannot confront her because I cannot talk to her abotu thatkind of things.

5:28 pm

Jillyjill

Does she have issues with your being gay?

5:29 pm

cosdem

Not since I was like 18

5:29 pm

MollyL

There are some things you don't share with your kids. As in anything having to do with your genitals or their Dad's genitals.

5:30 pm

cosdem

Guess I'm not going to Chicago in April.

5:30 pm

Jillyjill

Only too true molly

5:30 pm

Jillyjill

And I am sorry cos...that lie is pretty poor behavior on your mother

5:30 pm

MollyL

Cos I can't believe they have not come to see you in six years.

5:30 pm

Jillyjill

You can come to Montana cos....

5:35 pm

cosdem

idk why I bother. i didnt even get a christmas card or birthday card last year

5:36 pm

Jillyjill

Because you are a good son and trying to keep the communication open...don't beat yourself...you are being the bigger person

5:36 pm

MollyL

Their loss Cos. What a shame. : (

5:38 pm

glittzy

Lizlin

Hi all :)

5:41 pm

Jillyjill

Hey there lizlin! How are things down under?

5:42 pm

MollyL

Liz, we missed you while My Fair Lady was being sung earlier. : D

5:42 pm

Lizlin

Wet - Jilly but otherwise fine. Looking forward to going to a wedding this afternoon / evening :)

5:43 pm

Lizlin

You wouldn't have wanted to hear me sing, Molly, though I could've worked on your Cockney accents!

5:43 pm

MollyL

That is what I meant. We needed Cockney for Oh Wouldn't It Be Loverly. : D

5:43 pm

Lizlin

Luvverly!

5:44 pm

Jillyjill

Well, 65 left. Must head out, hope to be back early enough to finish

5:44 pm

Lizlin

Enjoy your evening Jilly :)

5:45 pm

MollyL

I student directed that show in college and it was painful to listen to some of the women audition.

5:45 pm

crosshair

keep the lines open if you can cosden.time is short.in the last 2 years we have lost my wifes father,mother and are to lose one brother in 6 months and all the things lost,the things left unsaid pile up at the funeral and have nowhere to go

5:45 pm

Lizlin

I guess it's as bad as some UK attempts at US accents!

5:46 pm

Lizlin

Just jumping into the middle of a conversation, but I agree with crossy! Even with a great relationship, there are so many things that you always wish you'd said!

5:47 pm

MollyL

Looks to me like Cos has done a good job at keeping the lines open and his parents are the ones who have slacked. Who doesn't send their kid something for Christmas?

5:47 pm

Lizlin

Seems pretty low to me!

5:49 pm

MollyL

Oh I need to shut up or I'm going to get another lecture about being judgmental.

5:49 pm

crosshair

but like the saying goes"if it becomes hate,it is like an acid,and often does more harm to the vessel that contains it than anything else" i know it seems trite,but time has a way of passing

5:50 pm

Lizlin

I'll just keep out of a conversation that I jumped into!

5:50 pm

cosdem

thanks liz.. im calmer now :)

5:51 pm

Lizlin

Well cos, hugs from me! It's a pretty tough situation :)

5:51 pm

and how can i judge anyone.this often says more about the judge than the one being judge and as of now i have yet to judge myself..
