4:17 am

the vet is astonished at the sweetness of our chows. Evidently, all her past experience with the breed has been negative
4:17 am
sandyloo

4:18 am
grannyrose

that's not surprising, ruby...considering their mistress
4:18 am
rubyfoo

I don't know what the story is with the entropion. The people in Spain say they operated but my vet couldn't see evidence of it.
4:18 am
puglet

4:19 am
sandyloo

Hi Puglet. I grew up in Indiana

4:21 am
puglet

skiing is something Ive never tried
4:22 am
rubyfoo

one of the reasons we moved to this part of France was that it is only 5 hrs from St. Anton and Lech where we used to ski. Now I'm too afraid that somebody will crash into me, so have given it up
4:22 am
sandyloo

Ruby, you would have loved to have seen my efforts LOL
4:22 am
grannyrose

oh, wow...ruby...my heroine....you ski!!!! never mastered that...
4:22 am

puglet

I have been thinking about getting me a driving pony--I like that too but nothing is like on the back of one
4:26 am
grannyrose

looove, horse riding...not very good at it, but love it. could it be something to do with my childhood ambition to be the lady who rode the horse bare-backed in the circus?
4:26 am
rubyfoo

just so* (still haven't got this keyboard down)
4:26 am
sandyloo

i would love to learn the driving it is so elegant but the carriages are very expensive
4:26 am
rubyfoo

I'm thinking of hitching up a chow to a little wagon for me -- imagine Rufie saying "You want me to do what?"
4:26 am

4:30 am
grannyrose

lol, ruby, that reminds me of years ago when we had a male goat, as a lawn mower. and my sister-in-law's parents, who are full-on greeks visited us. he saw our goat and asked.....
4:30 am
puglet

hes good for keeping varmits out of our chickens
4:31 am
Alexis Elise

Goats are adorable. I want pet goats someday
4:31 am
grannyrose

'do you milk it?' and i answered...i don't think HE would like it....then again, he might.
4:32 am
rubyfoo

I love goats, but unfortunately, they love roses. Sheep too. There are many places in France where they use goats or sheep to keep the grass cut.
4:32 am
Alexis Elise

I never thought of keeping a goat as a landscaper
4:32 am
rubyfoo

and the farmers bring about 30 sheep down to the field across our road, every fall, to eat the long grass
4:33 am
puglet

on our morning news the Police was called out to a home with lots of animals dead and many others knocking on heavens gate--thats a sad thing to hear for those poor creatures
4:33 am
rubyfoo

they both landscape and fertilize!
4:34 am
rubyfoo

behind th train station in Basel, which has a steep hill, they use sheep to cut the grass
4:34 am
rubyfoo

bye for now, kids, {{rose}} see you later
4:34 am
grannyrose

alexis, ours would act differently, depending on who was near him...my husband, the goat would rearup and put his hooves on his shoulders, and lick his sweaty face....the children he would very gently butt until they fell over....me, he always was very gentle with, and would stand quietly by my side, and let me scratch his head for him.
4:34 am
puglet

bye foo--hawd

4:38 am
puglet

My pug(annapooh) is so funny--she bosses our great dane--takes food right out of her mouth-yet shes afraid of the dark
4:42 am
puglet

Ive owned a few goats and they do make a good pet--But they are in everything and on everything/they will follow you like a dog
4:42 am
grannyrose

puglet, alexis, do you both have access to lickety split's list of clues?

Alexis Elise

The grid is freezing up tonight
5:03 am
Alexis Elise

It doesn't get too hot here
5:03 am
Alexis Elise

We don't get the triple digits and humidity that you have in Indiana
5:05 am
puglet

that sounds wonderful---a few years ago I visited my sister in Texas during the winter and got really sunburnt--yuck! Iam a redhead and burn very easily
5:06 am
Alexis Elise

Texas weather is pretty mild all year, huh?
5:06 am
puglet

I was where she was
5:07 am
Alexis Elise

This game is really getting glitchy on me. I'm gonna go lay down and catch a movie before bed. It was nice chatting with you.
5:07 am
puglet

I did love the openness down there--you can go for miles and not see houses upon houses--that was really weird to me
5:08 am

awww...the allergy meds don't help?
8:08 am

to a degree. My biggest problem is my eyes. I am always rubbing them and they are always red and swollen. I use drops, it helps to some degree

Hi, everyone! Bichon, I constantly sufer from allergies in every way imaginable. I'm my own worst enemy, though, since I'm allergic to cats and have three!! Allergic meds help to a degree but never completely take care of it.

I imagine it's difficult to have three cats when you are allergic to them.
8:16 am
bichon

I am very allergic to cats
8:18 am
MimiCat

I've found that I get kind of used to my own after awhile but then when I get around other cats I really suffer. It used to be bad when I worked with exotic cats at the wildlife park---I was constantly sneezing, rubbing eyes and taking medication. But I must feel it's worth it....can't imagine being without my cats now.
8:18 am

Bo Obama is a hypoallergenic dog as well

8:20 am

Growning up, I always wanted a cat, but my mom was allergic. I finally got my 1st cat when I was 19. My mom was coming over to visit and check up my new apartment, I told her I just got a cat but would vacuum well and put her in the bedroom....she laughed and told me " I'm not allergic I just can't stand cats"
8:20 am
MimiCat

It seems that people are more allergic to cats than dogs...not sure why. I'm also allergic to everything in nature (pollen, grasses, hay makes me crazy) and dust....great because I live in the desert and must dust every day. I should move to Antarctica because I don't think I'm allergic to snow!
8:20 am
hurshy

oh what a lying mom!
8:21 am

I know....right...lol
8:21 am

Well, she may have kind of been telling the truth....apparently she was emotionally allergic!

8:26 am
hurshy

my mom is just no fun. we never could go out to eat, we didn't go on vacation unless my grandparents paid, we had to eat peanut butter sandwiches on a 1000 mile road trip for college visit, no restaurants allowed...
8:27 am
smores

"Awww...but Mom, he's sooo cute"
8:28 am
smores

My mom was fun...we didn't go out a lot and there weren't many vacations...but she was fun :)
8:28 am
MimiCat

Whoa, hurshy...so sorry for that. I had the opposite childhood but, then, I was raised by my grandparents, though I didn't know they were my actual grandparents and that I was related to them until I was 22......LONG story.
8:29 am
hurshy

that's so funny, mimi, that's how it was for my mother-in-law, except i think she found out a bit younger than that.
8:30 am
bichon

we couldn't have pets because we lived in a place that didn't allow pets. We could have fish and parakeets
8:30 am
MimiCat

I was raised with my biological father as my brother. Met my bio mother at 22 and her 5 other kids but the funny thing was I was actually more like her than any of them including my looks...genes are weird.

8:33 am

could she learn, be taught, to be fun, even now? seems something deep seated--what was her childhod like?
8:34 am
hurshy

far as i can tell, her childhood was fine. and no, i am pretty sure she could not learn now. she is just very self-absorbed and pretty socially isolated.
8:35 am
MimiCat

I do feel sorry for people like that....must be awful to not experience joy in life.
8:35 am
RoundBarn

so sad. and such beautiful grandkids. is she in us or uk?
8:36 am

she may experience joy, i don't know. but she kind of sucks it out of other people. she's in the US (as am i really, i'm only a wannabe brit)
8:36 am

We did the same thing RoundBarn...grew up rather poor but Mom made it fun :)
8:36 am
MimiCat

Are your maternal grandparents like that, too?
8:36 am
hurshy

no, my maternal grandparents were ok. a little on the frugal side, growing up in the depression, but would buy us pizza when visiting.
8:36 am
RoundBarn

we grew up rich in everything but money. Lucky us.

my mother was very frugal. I always had hand-me-downs and I could never buy a book. It had to come from the library. Both parents grew up in the depression
8:38 am
bichon

But, we always had meat
8:38 am
MimiCat

I thought we were rich when I was growing up but my dad was actually blue collar---he just worked lots of overtime and they tended to spend it all on me....spoiled, I guess, but always knew I was lucky rather than "deserving." I got both money and love...how totally lucky was I?!!

My cousin in Cornwall has died, so Cornwall may be out--emotionally--but I may go see the Eden project.

8:40 am

Bye, RB...I'm leaving, too. Hugs all around and I'm gone....
8:53 am
crosshair

hare they just raised the age at which you can qualify for your pension to 67 from 65.that way they are betting that you will only hang around for a few years to collect then you can kick off and they keep the rest
8:55 am
MimiCat

Crossy, does that apply to our age group or to younger people? I'm getting my first early retirement check on July 3.
8:55 am
crosshair

we can do an early retirement at 65 but you will lose 4000 dollars a year by doing so
8:56 am
crosshair

this came into effect just last year or year before. anyone who qualified before that was not affected
8:57 am
MimiCat

Isn't it just that you get less per month but the total amount is still there...you don't actually lose that money. That's how it was explained to me. May be different in Canada?
8:58 am
crosshair

your monthly cheque is less
8:59 am
crosshair

it is all still there,technically,provided you live long enough
8:59 am
crosshair

if you retired at 67 and lived to 105 you may get out everything you paid in from age 18 to 67:(
9:00 am
crosshair

maybe
9:00 am
MimiCat

I get the feeling I'm going to live a long time...God doesn't want me there criticizing how he's running things!
9:00 am

good.live till 115 and show them who is boss!
9:01 am
MimiCat

Appropriate I'm in this community as if I live that long, all I'll be doing is babbling!
9:01 am
crosshair

and then there are all those who never make it to 67.it staggers me that the canada pension plan is having issues
9:02 am
MimiCat

I think our children should be entitled to whatever is left of that money.
9:02 am
crosshair

you would think so,but all those canada pension payments you made from when you first started working till when you died at age 66 just seem to vanish into a black hole
9:04 am
crosshair

well,i suppose it is like auto insurance,if you do not have a claim that year,all the money you paid for a premium goes to others
9:04 am
MimiCat

I just wrote my senator (John McCain) complaining that companies are getting around the issue of not legally being permitted to ask your age or birth date by asking what year you graduated high school....sneaky.
9:05 am
crosshair

lol,i took a ged and actually graduated 33 years later.that fixes them
9:06 am
crosshair

carlee finishes university next wekk so she can use this years date for her graduation lol
9:07 am
crosshair

what floors me is that i am hearing some u.s companies are asking for your FB user name and pw so they can check you out and see what you have said and posted
9:07 am
MimiCat

The spirit of the law is being violated and that should be remedied. No, they specifically want your high school graduation year and you can't proceed on the application unless you give it......grrr. Wonder if that's why I'm not getting as many responses I should.
9:08 am
72 Temple Owl

send it to the EEOC, mimi.
9:09 am
crosshair

of course it is being violated.they will see how far they can bend the law without actually breaking it
9:10 am
MimiCat

Yep, TO, was going to do that and also to my House rep. Am tired of "gray" discrimination. You'd think we'd be more valuable with all our experience and wisdom and the fact that we're not encumbered by possible pregnancy, little kids to care for, etc. Sad.
9:10 am
72 Temple Owl

depends. discrimination goes on all the time in cetain industries. go to a chain restaurant and tell me if you don't see a token older woman
9:11 am
crosshair

i am so up to here with grey discrimination.i am a white collar business operator.i am overqualified for any job in the public service industry unless i am running the place.too many middle management type will think i am gunning for their job if i get hired.so i am semi retired
9:12 am
crosshair

i either fight student for 2 or 3 mcjobs or i start a business of my own again.there is no middle ground it seems
9:15 am
MimiCat

What really aggravates me is that by taking early retirement I'm only allowed to make an additional $15,000 a year on top of it until full retirement age. Why should that matter? That's OUR money, after all. They've earned the interest on it all these years. Really frustrating.
9:16 am
crosshair

it is mostly the same here,mimi
9:16 am

I had to take early retirement on the money I earned only since my ex is 1.5 years younger than me. But when he turns 62, my benefits will triple. Oh, let the time fly!!
9:20 am

retirement should be age 50.that way we are in good enough shape to enjoy it and all those positions are open for school graduates.it is a win/win:)
9:21 am

good morning. anyone have a clue for the aq 7 which i know is something to do with watery..?
9:21 am

then just have mentor jobs that do not affect the pension cheque totals and you can work at those as long as you wish
9:21 am
MimiCat

Apparently Germany is much better as far as taking care of its people....someone on Babble mentioned that awhile back. Don't even get me started on the horrible situation with Social Security disability....they deny EVERYONE now. Have been fighting with them for a year and am waiting for the court date to get the back pay....it takes about 15 months to get a court date! Ridiculous. Yes, I agree with you, crossy.
9:22 am
mkg

if retirement were 50 the economy would go bankrupt quickly. who can support people from age 50 to 90?????? i dont agree at all.
9:22 am

all of europe is in bad shape economically.
9:22 am

mimi ,it took us TEN years to ram my wifes disability through and she is frigging BLIND
9:22 am

i would prefer a mandatory 30 days of vacation per year. that way you can travel and enjoy every year.
9:22 am
crosshair

i know mkg.i was being silly there
9:23 am
MimiCat

No, mkg, that money is already funded by US...it isn't a handout.
9:23 am
mkg

mimi not sure what you mean. do you mean social security payments?
9:24 am
MimiCat

Yes...retirement funds. And when they're used up, that's it. That money is paid from every paycheck you ever earn.
9:24 am
crosshair

i remember one case worker said to us when we were about 7 years into it" well,she can still work,i am sure there are braille typists out there"... braille typits?? yea,those blody jobs are up on the frigging board all the time you silly git!
9:25 am
mkg

mimi if when used up no more comes then it would be fine. but are these private retirement funds or soc sec? not sure what you mean
9:27 am
MimiCat

Yet we're willing to support illegals and their children and basically encourage poor people to have more children for the benefits. I can't even get Medicaid in Arizona because our law changed and says you can't get it unless you have children!! I HAVE children...they're GROWN and all have degrees...I paid my dues!
9:27 am
crosshair

i better dive into the grid for a bit.do not want to get me going on odsp/social security disability either

One token "older person" in a job place does not actually mean they hire older people. Chances are good that is just a person who has worked there a long time, being phased out. It seems everywhere I go these days, the employee base is young, ignorant and mostly ethnic (employers get government kick backs for that)

This is all going to backfire when an entire generation of people can no longer afford to live at a bare minimum. The upper crust cannot continue to monopolize wealth when the majority of people are in need. It just doesn't work.

Sorry for your wife's plight, Crosshair. Disability definition according to the SSA: "inability to engage in any substantial gainful activity by reason of any medically determinable physical or mental impairment which can be expected to result in death or which has lasted or can be expected to last for a continuous period of not less than 12 months." To further describe cases of blindness: "Blind workers whose vision in the better eye cannot be corrected to better than 20/20 or whose visual field in the better eye, even with corrective lenses, is 20 degrees or less" are considered disabled. Unfortunately loopholes are everywhere and the powers-that-be that have to dish out the money are very protective. Proof that the person seeking disability payments is a "worker" with the above vision criteria should not take 10 years!!!!

In a nutshell: that is just BS, Crosshair. It is so easy to have payments withheld from our paychecks yet it so difficult to ask for some back even with qualifying circumstances. Proof of a failed system...in my opinion that is.

crossy, does the govt pay your mortgage and insurane and utilties wif you break a hip? you just said yo have been fighting for benefits for adiabled person for years...yet you say at least you don't lose your home if you break a hip because you don't have to pay the doctors?
9:54 am

no they do not. provincial health care is exactly that.it pays for your health needs.not for your house,your car or your boat.if you want protection with that you get a supplimentary policy
9:55 am

how can you not lose a mortgaged home if you are not working?

what i mean is you do not run into people who are uninsured for health care and have to pay large medical sums out of pocket

don't let that hold you back puglet. we have quite a few babblers from all over the world. for many, english is not their mother tongue. it is much more about sharing ideas than correcting someoone's spelling, grammar and punctuation. yu will find discussions about it forom time to time because there are many of us that are "wordies". do not be inhibited or intimidated by it.

It's very simple to change your icon and it shows up after you refresh your screen.
12:56 pm

for a while, it was taking a day for the icon to show, or sometimes, some people saw one pic and others another? or it would be in the profile but not the chog??

NEW! CARAMEL BACON STUFFED FRENCH TOAST

A breakfast favourite gets a bacon upgrade with a sweet and savoury layer of bacon and white chocolate spread between two thick slices of our fabulous French toast. Then we top it off with caramel sauce and diced bacon. Served with two eggs* cooked to order, two hickory-smoked bacon strips and a side of warm syrup.

many wo 5/20 are not fo 4/8 of blind dates. they can be en 7/52 with anxiety. last week, i left my ho 5/14 to meet the friend of a friend at a local bistro. when he "sh 5/14" up, i was pleasantly surprised. he was well- en 7/52 with charm, and had the niceest shade of gray hair; like as 5/12 had been combed through it! sartorially, he was well turned out, wearing blue su 5/14 sh 5/12 that matched his eyes. we us 4/6 the first few minutes to peruse the me 4/6, there were several tasty items to choose from, and the ha 6/24 sounded very savoury, but instead, we ordered the fo 6/33 - this would give us something to distract us if conversation lagged. fjor dessert ( hint) we had pie a la mo 4/6. when the bill came, he ow 4/9 the waitress a generous tip for serving us so well. we left the fu 4/9s on the table and left. taking a walk down to the beach we passed a rather large sand du 4/6, it made me think we were going into the de 6/21. i must qu 5/18 this story, as it is almost closing time here...

8:30 pm
welki

wishing the weather would stabilize (ha)
8:30 pm
welki

grateful i have a husband who picks up the slack when i'm pooped - and that's about it, dawg :)
8:31 pm

8:33 pm

i now have three day weekends every week, so that's nice - and when holidays fall on a monday, i get tuesdays as a lieu day (more fishing)
8:33 pm
welki

as far as the weather stabilizing, i can only hope it's soon
8:33 pm
crosshair

a woman who loves to fish is a jewel indeed;)
8:34 pm
welki

my husband thinks the same, crossy. now if only i could learn to like golf
8:35 pm
crosshair

a woman who loves to fish rates right up there with a woman who' s daddy owns a distellery
8:35 pm
welki

wowsa - i'll have to quote you (when the time is right).
8:36 pm
crosshair

hehe
8:37 pm
welki

if he's golfing, i can take the boat out - or i can fish from the dock. (so i really don't see much purpose in trying to like it more than the teeny bit i do - even the pro i took lessons from told me not to bother *lol* - but i do go out with him a couple of times a year, just to see if a miracle has happened :)
8:38 pm
crosshair

all pro fishermen know that the biggest fish of the day will ALWAYS be caught by new or inexperienced fisherpersons
8:38 pm
welki

we picked up an ancient golf cart for cheap last year - looks like a mini brinks truck
8:39 pm
welki

size does matter :)
8:39 pm
crosshair

lol it does indeed.,thats why we went with the metric system because 162 cm always sounds much better than 14 inches
8:40 pm
welki

would love to spend time in your neck of the woods - spectacular sport fishing
8:41 pm
crosshair

the only thing we measure the old way is beer and bra sizes because beer will always be in pints and lord help us,bra sizes will foevermore be in inches
8:41 pm
welki

but the grass is always greener. i live about 5 minutes from one of the best trout rivers in the world - and an hour from mountain lakes and streams
8:42 pm
welki

it's not the inches, crossy, but the cup size. you've been out of the loop for a long time, your memory's shot
8:42 pm
crosshair
