You cant really see the brindling unless you know where it is--and then its hard to see unless the light hits it just right
1:34 am

I still think she's genetically a brindle, just very dark -- but never mind -- she's a Dane and beautiful and sweet, I bet
1:34 am
puglet

at the time I got her I wasent in the mood for a dog- I had to put to sleep 2 of my boxers due to old age and cancer----but I guess God knew what I needed more than I--lal--She is 3 now and too darn smart for her own good
1:35 am

give her a big hug from me, puglet. So sorry about your boxers -- it's so tough to lose them.

1:40 am
jillibus

over halfway, yippee
1:41 am

at least with dogs you can hide the pill in something they like and they usually gobble it down - i always have a second piece on hand so they are in a hurry to get that too - but cats - no way

1:45 am
jillibus

smart Beulah -- roll it into a sausage of meaty food and just shove it down her throat, stroke her neck until she swallows, cuddling her all the time.
1:47 am
puglet

I have put in into different meat products and you think its down but she rolls it to the side or under the tounge and out it comes
1:48 am
jillibus

you really have to shove it down the throat, past the tongue.
1:48 am

I crush it up now and just stir it in the can food

2:05 am

I make my sister and Gene(the older gentleman) do as much for theirself as they can---Of course they woild like for me to do it all for them but it does them no good
2:07 am

2:07 am
puglet

yes I did! it was 80, a beautiful day! I worked inside and out and today its to be the same--Althought I got to take my sister to doctor this morn--I plan on replanting some trees and flowers
2:07 am

2:09 am

it rained here today, a good soaking rain. we need a few more weeks of that sort of rain. and for the first time in nearly 4 years i am actually motivated to work in my garden.
2:09 am
puglet

Oh I know the feeling! People dont understand its for their own good to let them do for themselves
2:11 am
puglet

well thats nice Rose--nothing like digging in the dirt and the smell of it
2:12 am
puglet

are you planting flowers or veggies
2:13 am
grannyrose

there was an experiment done over here a while ago. they put all these so-called high-dependency aged men in a house, all properly equipped throughout, and then they were told they had to unpack their bags themselves, cook for themselves, wash, clean, etc. at the end of 4 weeks, when they were visited again, all of them had physically and mentally improved.
2:14 am

flowers puglet. still waiting for my raised garden bed for the veggies
2:14 am

my Mom will be 93 in June and lives with me - i cook the main meal of the day but she does her own breakfast and lunch - she also feeds the 3 cats and 1 dog twice a day albeit at 5.45am and feeds our gardener when he is here - hanging on to being needed which i think is important
2:25 am
grannyrose

absolutely, urshy.
2:25 am
puglet

I think that means alot too--And its good your mom is still active
2:25 am

i might add it takes her nearly an hour per pet feeding but what the heck there is no rush
2:26 am

urshy, she's doing it. my hat's off to her. please hug her for me. as for my own mother....nope, not going there.
2:27 am

your elderly people are lucky that you and Rose wants them to be apart of your life..Some family just want to get them out of their lives
2:28 am
ursh

i have wealthy brothers and we have decided when the time comes we will get a nurse in to take care of her needs - she really does not want to go into care
2:30 am
grannyrose

ditto, here, urshy. we are not going to put mother mac into care. as a matter of fa4, i have an arrangement with my sis-in-law. when the time comes, we are going to take it in turns to look after her here at home.
2:31 am
ursh

nice rose - i am not a nurse and would be afraid of hurting her while trying to help
2:32 am
grannyrose

i suppose it depends, urshy, on just how much assistance she will require.
2:34 am
puglet

I dont have parents to worry about(they both died young),but I worry about my sister if something were to happen to me
2:35 am
puglet

she does very well as long as she is cued to what to do
2:35 am
ursh

i have 3 sibs so were i to get hit by a bus Mom would be OK
2:36 am
grannyrose

puglet, is she just becoming older, or is something else amiss?
2:36 am
puglet

I got 5 sisters and they all have their own lives(so it seems)
2:38 am
puglet

she has (dont know the spelling-sorry) skitz and shes a diabetic
2:38 am
puglet

she is one year younger than I
2:38 am
ursh

i think once one sister takes care of a family member in need the others just relax and let go of all responsibility
2:40 am
grannyrose

awww, puglet. that's so tragic....are her meds helping her?
2:41 am
ursh

sibs just dont realise how much planning it takes to organise one's own life around taking care of someone and just how much is sacrificed
2:41 am
puglet

to some degree--its a constant battle keeping the sugar level right--when it out of whack then it throws the mental out too
2:42 am
grannyrose

so true, urshy. all my bros and their wives were very happy for me to drive 45minutes 3 times a week to our mother's home, to help her with everything. then i started to fall apart, as you know, and now, they have to step up to the mark. not happy little campers, i can tell you.
2:43 am
puglet

she hears voices and they can take up all her time if I dont make sure she stays connected with the real world--if that makes sense
2:44 am
grannyrose

urshy, you have .....then you probably do have....an idea of how i feel when i he4 my sis-in-law talking about how she is going overseas again, or off to the other end of australia....and i think....you selfish cow....how about giving us a break?
2:45 am
grannyrose

yes, puglet, it does make sense....and it takes a lot out of you, struggling each day, to keep your sister in our world.
2:45 am
ursh

rose - only too well - my sibs all travel a lot and my sis has a resort in mocambique which takes up more than half of her time
2:46 am
grannyrose

isn't it frustrating, urshy? and if don and i ask her to have mother mac for a weekend....well, it hits the fan in a major way.
2:47 am
ursh

lololo rose so familiar
2:47 am
ursh

although to be fair by brothers both live far away and would have mom anytime - but she wont go
2:48 am
puglet

Its good that God puts us caregivers into this world--isnt it
2:48 am
grannyrose

*giggle* and then there is don's brother, who says...mum??in respite care again?? and he hasn't, not even once in 9 years, taken his mother out for a day, to give us a break.
2:49 am
puglet

Rose, sounds like your Mom is a stronge will women
2:49 am
ursh

too true pug - hopefully we will get extra blessings one day
2:49 am
grannyrose

yeah, puglet....you are so good to remind us. thanx, hun.
2:54 am
puglet

I really miss having elders to go to for advice and such. I kinda find that here thanks to all of you
2:55 am

3:15 am
rubyfoo

Just ask me where anything is in Australia, and you'll come against this dark wall of total ignorance
3:15 am
rubyfoo

no, he just wrote to Burt, out of the blue, much to Burt's confusion and partial dismay
3:16 am
grannyrose

lolol, ruby. that's okay. we can be ignorant together.*links arms with ruby* this is my friend, folks!!
3:18 am
grannyrose

i'd begin with telling burt how wonderful it is, that one of his old friends is still thinking of him. and thinking of him enough to actually write. it's lovely.

7:04 pm
Dorens

boston son is fine... he and his wife are planning to move to california this summer.... the other son moved to baltimore with the kids, so i've been driving down there much more than Boston lately. and yes about the weather. today was siimply beautiful... the bluest sky, and all the green around.. trees are leafing, perennials are popping up and unfurling, lawns are greening. i needed a day like this
7:04 pm
uusue2

hi stid!!
7:05 pm

oh, I am glad you had nice weather too! It got REALLY cold last night and I hadn't turned the electric heaters on. I have spent the rest of the day opening windows and letting in the light!

7:06 pm
stidmama

I am glad your children are okay, Doren. I know it's a west-coast thing (and not something I would have done until recently) but for me everything north of DC splits between NY and Boston. *wicked mama grin* even though I DO remember how long it takes to drive from one point to the other!
7:06 pm

That's how Washington started out. Now we have marriage... I'll come throw rice at you if you want! :-D
7:25 pm

the only way we get marriage here is if the supreme court rules any constitutional ban is overturned.. or if the voters here vote to repeal the ban...
7:26 pm
rururocks

7:26 pm
stidmama

7:45 pm
gapeach

Aw, stiddie, thanks. I'd rather have a non-virgin but the alcohal makes my heart beat too fast. I just love Scotch....my daughter used to keep a bottle in the kitchen and occaisionly I would open it and just sit there and smell (talk about pitiful).
7:47 pm
stidmama

oh, that is too bad -- I don't usually like the effects of alcohol actually, but I use it to flavor some foods.
7:47 pm

Good Evening Everyone! How are you all tonight?
8:18 pm
rururocks

hi nef
8:28 pm
welki

hi folks
8:29 pm
Nef

Hi ruru and welki. How are you doing tonight?
8:30 pm
welki

hey nef - calming down. frightening day - bomb scare at work. the manhattan is starting to do it's magic :)
8:30 pm
Nef

I've been trying to understand my car insurance info and am totally confused by it tonight (maybe it will make sense tomorrow?)
8:30 pm
Nef

OMG, welki! What happened?
8:31 pm
welki

put it under your pillow tonight, nef
8:31 pm
Nef

Here I thought you were retired; (how confused am I?)_
8:31 pm
welki

some dodo decided to bring what is probably a bomb through security - the x-ray machine picked it up, thank goodness
8:32 pm
welki

that's because i WISH i was retired - a lot.
8:32 pm
Nef

what type of work do you do?
8:33 pm
welki

i work in the legal system
8:35 pm
Nef

how scary! DId they have you continue working or give you time off?
8:36 pm
welki

the building, and a couple in the vicinity were evacuated, and a few blocks surrounding the scene were cleared as well. transit was shut down. thousands of people were diverted out of the area
8:37 pm
welki

glad that nothing went boom - but felt bad for all the folks who left the building without coats, keys, handbags, phones
8:38 pm
Nef

Oh, My! Was it very cold there today?
8:38 pm
welki

probably around 50F, but windy and cloudy
8:39 pm
Nef

It sounds like it's a big city; that must have been a headache for everyone.
8:39 pm
welki

by canadian standards, it's pretty big, over a million people. coming from nyc, i think it's sort of cute :)
8:40 pm
Nef

(Why would you leave without your purse and phone?) I'd hate to be evacuated from somewhere and leave all of my ID's and $$$ and credit cards behind!
8:41 pm
welki

because if you're employed in the building, say a court clerk, you'd be in a court room and your personal stuff would be in your office
8:42 pm
Nef

where are you, Welki? I obviously thought you were in some smaller town that that
8:43 pm
Nef

OH! I didn't thick along those lines at all!
8:43 pm
Nef

(nor did I THINK that way either)
8:43 pm
welki

calgary, nef . here's a link to a local news brief: http://tinyurl.com/d3jpe6f
8:45 pm
Nef

Wow! What a horrid day!
8:45 pm
Nef

(have another Manhatten)
8:46 pm
welki

was a good day - no one was hurt
8:47 pm
Nef

yes; that IS good news. But they thought it was for a family court appearance? Holly Cats!
8:48 pm
Nef

Holy Catsa, even. (I can't type worth a darn tonight)
8:49 pm
welki

Holy Cats! Love it!
8:49 pm
welki

Oh - holly cats! and holy catsa! even better! LOL
8:51 pm
welki

all i know is that the jackass scared the crap out of an entire city and put thousands of people at risk
8:52 pm
Nef

very true. I was trying to read parts of the article to DH; but finally gave up and emailed it to him.
8:52 pm
welki

*waves to Nef's husband*
8:53 pm
welki

hey nef, are you anywhere near St. Cloud?
8:53 pm
Nef

I was trying to type "Holy Cats" both of those times.
8:53 pm
Nef

I live 60 mile south of St. Cloud in a northern Twin City suburb, welki
8:53 pm
welki

Holly Cats - I have one of those decorative plates that has a theme like that. But Holy Catsa! Dat's Italian :)
8:54 pm
Nef

LOL! :-)
8:54 pm
welki

one of my very good friends just moved there from pennsylvania - she's a great gal. wish you were closer, i'd 'introduce' the two of you
8:56 pm
Nef

well, I want to drive up there go to a craft store there and drive back (in a fairly short time) next week to see how DH tolerates that much of a day trip.
8:57 pm
Nef

We're going to a 2 day convention up there in 3 weeks; but DH's dream of following the Mississippi River and checking out the different B-B-Q flavors along the way will require a fair amount of stamina for him.
8:59 pm
welki

i just msged her, asked if she'd be interested in meeting a friend of a friend :)
9:00 pm
Nef

I'll be doing the driving; but I think road trips can be as tiring for the passenger as it is for the driver; especially when last year was so bad.
9:00 pm
Nef

That would be interesting; does she Babble yet?
9:01 pm
welki

she's tried it - we play another word game, used to play tangleword (which has been replaced with serpentine). it's a quick game, 1, 2 or 3 minute rounds
9:03 pm
Nef

hmmm, I don't know those games (and probably shouldn't be tempted if they are the least bit addicting)
9:03 pm
welki

just occurred to me that we probably have been pals for 7 or 8 years!
9:04 pm
Nef

Why did she move to St. Cloud?
9:05 pm
welki

tangleword closed down - one of the members created a replacement game. yes, it's addictive -

http://serpentinegame.com/#
9:05 pm
welki

her husband's job was relocated
9:05 pm
Nef

all on-line? Or do you know her in real life too?
9:06 pm
welki

sure feels real, but online. one of those folks who you just know you'll meet one day. she's funny, smart, down to earth - just a nice person
9:07 pm
welki

(and she loves irish wolfhounds - so how bad could she be?)
9:09 pm
welki

would be nice for her to meet someone local - don't know if she's had much opportunity to socialize in the few weeks she's been there. she and her husband have just purchased a house (all their stuff is in storage until they close on the place) and i know she misses her kids
9:09 pm
Nef

LOL! :-)
9:09 pm
Nef

how old are her kids?
9:10 pm
Nef

(BTW, I just tried that game... It's addicting!)
9:10 pm
welki

anyway, i'm signing off for the evening. send me a msg on FB if you want me to connect the two of you. (her kids are young adults, but very close to their parents - nice family)
9:10 pm
welki

LOL -- it's great, isn't it?!
9:11 pm
welki

the developer has just re-vamped the game, so there may be a few glitches until he gets everything debugged - but you'll like it. if you see doridk there, say hi - that's my friend :)
9:11 pm
Nef

Okay, I'll try to find you there (I never know who I know on FB or not. Do you know me there?
9:11 pm
welki

yes, i sent you a message a few minutes ago
9:12 pm
VYCanisMajoris

9:13 pm
Nef

Hi mrb
9:14 pm

9:14 pm
VYCanisMajoris

the boggle world anyway... most games are shutting down
9:15 pm
VYCanisMajoris

hi nef
9:15 pm
welki

if you can find the bucks, the upgrade here is about 15 bucks, a one time charge, and will keep the tile/word stats active for you. i think they get shut off after a few weeks of playing
9:16 pm
welki

(some players toss the developer a few bucks every now and then as a thank you, too)
9:16 pm
jmcnrick

hmmm?
9:16 pm
welki

*hmmmming along*
9:16 pm
Nef

9:29 pm
jmcnrick

no i don't pen. . . is it a timed game?
9:29 pm
stidmama

oh man. That stinks, Nef -- wish they could get that under control for her. SO scary when someone does that. ((more hugs))

She's usually on here in the evenings; usually about 8:30 or so my time (CDT).
11:20 pm
Nef

I seem to have the memory of a gnat right now; otherwise I'd tell her to check there tomorrow. And since tomorrow my grandson turns 4 years old; I'm not sure I'll be here then to see her.
11:20 pm
VYCanisMajoris

i never feel any emotion, only when people die.. why is that? what is wrong with me
11:23 pm
Nef

I take it you're a male? Are you 60+ years old? If so, that's probably the only time that that generation felt it was "okay" to care
11:23 pm
VYCanisMajoris

im 21
11:24 pm
VYCanisMajoris

its not that I'm socially constrained to not care, i genuinely don't feel anything about anything
