aside from her slobbering water down her front when she drinks, she is wonderful, just looks like a monster
3:59 am

and Rufie loves her
3:59 am
Glantarell

LOL
3:59 am
Glantarell

good that they get along
3:59 am
rubyfoo

Unfortunately, the two of them found a hole in the fence and Rufe wound up on the median in the village, having crossed 3 very busy roads. He's safe now and the garden is re-secured, but he gave us a huge fright
4:00 am
Glantarell

oh dear, must have been scary
4:00 am
rubyfoo

He's a wonderful, sweet and affectionate dog, but is something of a wild man as far as escaping
4:01 am
Glantarell

has he been neutered? Thats olved that problem for 2 of my dogs
4:02 am
rubyfoo

I hate the idea of doing that as he has lovely, big, black "couilles" and could be a great sire if someone wants a good chow chow

the dogs find dead birds (that have crashed i nto the Windows) but, fortunately, they play with them outside.....
4:22 am
rubyfoo

I had cat that used t bring me "gifts" like that, usually not completely dead
4:22 am
puglet

I guess having a doggy door has its draw backs
4:23 am
rubyfoo

we keep the house open all the time as we are fenced. It makes housebreaking much easier
4:24 am
puglet

same here--I hate a closed up house
4:24 am
rubyfoo

do other animals ever come in the doggy door? I used to have a cat come in and eat the dogs' food and neither dog objected
4:25 am
puglet

not so far--but I got 2 other dogs too and not many other animals comes into the yard
4:26 am
puglet

plus we have a chainlink fence around the yard
4:26 am
rubyfoo

birds sometimes walk in and once a large hawk flew in the front door, must have missed the feeder
4:27 am
puglet

oh wow! I have had a bird or two visit---just had a wren come in about a week ago
4:32 am
puglet

are you feeling better Ruby? The last time I talked to you , you were kind of under the weather
4:38 am

It was still peaceful when we were there, I forgot we had to go through the churchyard but still found my way--but it wasn't as perfect as I remembered.

hi sue :)
how are yu and your beloved today?
2:02 pm
uusue2

we are good, kate! we're at the cancer center where Frank has started his next-to-last chemo cycle.
2:02 pm
uusue2

they give him stuff that puts him to sleep, so he is napping and I am babbling :-)
2:03 pm
TraderKate

such good news sue! i hope he continues to tolerate the meds well... especially since it gives yu a bit of quality babbling time :))
2:04 pm
TraderKate

when will the chemo finally be finished sue? weeks - months???
2:04 pm
uusue2

he is getting pretty worn out by the chemo and is looking forward to it ending. But really, the side effects haven't been horrible.
2:05 pm
TraderKate

are you holding up okay? it must be very tiring on you too
2:05 pm
uusue2

I'm pretty stressed out but am still functioning. Will be getting some physical therapy for my neck which I hope will help my headaches.
2:07 pm
TraderKate

i didn't realize you were having trouble with headaches, what happened to your neck? i hope there is a way you can get some time for yourself to "decompress" being a full time caregiver can drain you...
2:08 pm
negativeneil

Sorry to hear that Sue. And hi.
2:08 pm
uusue2

I injured my neck about 30 years ago and have since had 3 fusions; I tend to carry stress in my neck now, it gets knotted up pretty easily.
2:08 pm
negativeneil

I'm at work, Babbling a little here and there, when I find spare moments.
2:08 pm
uusue2

hi neil!
2:08 pm
negativeneil

On lunch now though.
2:09 pm

hi neil :)
2:09 pm

would a warm compress give yu any relief ?
2:09 pm
negativeneil

Hi Kate. :)
2:10 pm
uusue2

might do, I should try that.
2:10 pm
negativeneil

Sorry you're having that pain, Sue. :/
2:10 pm
suebhoney

uusue2, I've had 2 fusions myself and now I have a disc that continues to slip in/out
2:10 pm
uusue2

sometimes I get muscle cramps in my neck (which is just as much fun as it sounds like) and then a heating pad helps
2:10 pm
negativeneil

Ouch. :/
2:11 pm
suebhoney

right now my left side shoulder/neck are is one big knot :(
2:11 pm
suebhoney

:(
2:11 pm
uusue2

hi sue, apparently I have two more disks that are starting to bulge but not severely yet, thank goodness
2:11 pm
TraderKate

hi sue :)
sounds like you could give sue some good advice... gonna take 5 and change out these babble blind eyeballs bbs
2:11 pm
suebhoney

yeah I'm just waiting, according to the neurosurgeon it's just a matter of time before another disc breaks
2:11 pm
uusue2

sorry to hear that, sue! I know how you feel!!
2:12 pm
suebhoney

thanks :) wish we could help each other lol
2:14 pm
negativeneil

Yeah. Sorry you both have that to contend with.
2:14 pm
negativeneil

And that's me done... take care.
2:15 pm
eieios

2:15 pm

2:16 pm
suebhoney

eieios :(
2:16 pm
eieios

i am coming out of a horrible experience of the past three months though, so i am a little leery
2:16 pm
uusue2

oh dear, eieios, that doesn't sound good :-(
2:18 pm
eieios

had a spinal cord stimulator put in in September, worked great, during a revision in February, doc put the new lead through my spinal cord.
2:19 pm
eieios

had a very risky surgery about a month ago to remove the whole thing again. result of the first surgery is numbness from the chest down. fortunately i have some motor skill and sensitivity, so i can walk, but it has been a huge mess....
2:19 pm
suebhoney

wow! :(
2:19 pm
TraderKate

what is the stimulator supposed to do eiei? make new neural connections?
2:20 pm
uusue2

holy cow, eieios, you have been through the wringer!! ((((((eieios))))))
2:20 pm
eieios

it is like having a TENS unit inside your body. kinda scrambles all those firing nerve signals that cause the pain
2:20 pm
TraderKate

i think you all need a great big {{{{{HUG}}}}
2:21 pm
eieios

it has been a mess. at least the last surgery got rid of the horrible pain of the first one.
2:22 pm
eieios

of course, the chronic pain is back. yeah me.
2:24 pm
TraderKate

so sorry to hear what you've been through eieios... and sue and sue.... you should form a support group.
is the underlying cause some kind of osteoporosis?
2:26 pm
eieios

mine is degenerative disc disease
2:26 pm
TraderKate

you are so young, how perfectly horrible!
2:27 pm
uusue2

mine started with an accident, arthritis developed later
2:29 pm
suebhoney

eieos that's what I have!
2:29 pm
TraderKate

apparently, a previous injury is often the start of arthritis. you all have so much to contend with on a daily basis, i'm truly sorry :(
2:30 pm
suebhoney

I had a fusion at cervical 5-6 in 1999 and then another at cervical 4-5 in 2009
2:30 pm
suebhoney

now I go 2, 3, 4, 7
2:31 pm
suebhoney

and I think it's cervical 3 that has since slipped out of place
2:31 pm
uusue2

I started with 5/6 in 2001, then 6/7 in 2006 and 4/5 in 2010. Now 3/4 and T2/T3 are bulging. Don't fall out of trees.
2:32 pm
suebhoney

I broke it myself by cracking my neck the first time, the 2nd time, I was sleeping and it slipped and broke
2:34 pm
uusue2

wow, sue, that is tough. Sorry to hear that!!
2:35 pm
suebhoney

People consider me HARD CORE as I've done it to myself 2x, but everyone says I need a better story for the 2nd one, how can "it happened while sleeping" not be a good story! LOL
2:36 pm
uusue2

Yes, I have a much better story, fell out of a tree during a faculty party :-)
2:37 pm
TraderKate

lol, you could just give a sly wink and say you did it in bed suebhoney ;)
2:37 pm
suebhoney

what the heck were you doing up a tree?
2:37 pm
uusue2

although actually to be precise, I *jumped* out of the tree - there was a zip line and i wasn't strong enough to hang on to it (was in someone's back yard so no slings or safety gear or anything)
2:37 pm
suebhoney

traderkate, ha! yes and let them wonder hehehe
2:37 pm
TraderKate

and uusue... do tell... sounds like quite a party - acadamia sure knows how to party ;)
2:38 pm
uusue2

I was younger then (although old enough to know better)
2:39 pm
uusue2

anyway I am going to wander off for a while, Frank is still asleep so I am going to get a soda, bbl

3:03 pm
lilliann

that's good.saying that, here they keep changing my bairn's bus's times in the morning but forget to tell people and unless the bairns constantly read them which they don't they miss their bus
3:03 pm
TraderKate

has your weather improved lately? the whole of the british isles got off to a very bad start this spring...floods, snow, rain, hail... sheeesh!
3:04 pm
TraderKate

is it a school bus, or the city transit? when i last visited london, the posted bus times were incredibly unreliable....
3:05 pm
lilliann

it's been windy and sunny for a few days but threw it down today and the bairn got soaked to the skin this morning waiting for her bus, so she got cold and that made her eye where she fractured the bone in december hurt so they sent her home at 8.45 this morning.she had taken paracetamol so she would have been ok but since her accident they are being over cautious
3:05 pm
lilliann

public transport
3:08 pm
TraderKate

poor wee thing. is she happy she got a day off from school?
3:09 pm

3:12 pm
lilliann

mmm, probably.she was freezing when she cam home though, so she had a hot water bottle and 2 duvets and a hot honey and lemon.now she's mucking about as she should be in bed and making herself another honey and lemon as i told her to have one before bed, she's just told me, but as i said to her that was at 8pm as she should be in bed now.i like how she uses my words to suit herself:)
3:13 pm
lilliann

ok hin
3:21 pm

3:23 pm
lilliann

she's just gone up now after faffing about.aye, you're right but she does that anyway even when she hasn't had a drink.then there will be other excuses like she's forgotten to pack a school book or put her phone on charge!!

John Quincy Adams was elected the 6th President of the United States despite losing both the popular and electoral vote. No one won the majority, so the election went to the House of Representatives, where Adams had more friends than his competition.

Oh, did anyone see the news headline about the senior citizen prostitution/crack cocaine ring that got busted in New Jersey? Yes...really.
6:10 pm
MimiCat

They were running it from a nursing home!
6:10 pm
car.eeyore

Good grief. I don't believe it.
6:10 pm
ChampFit

Hmmm..guess they got bored?
6:11 pm
MimiCat

Yep---the guy was 75 and the woman was 66. They were using crack-addicted girls as prostitutes for residents and neighbors!

tomorrow is penne a la vodka.in a pan fast fry some diced green onions 2 diced cloves of fresh garlic,8 crumbled up slices of bacon and 1 tsp of creamery butter. after about 2 minutes or so,toss a shot of high quality vodla in the pan and flambe it for 30 seconds the put it out by using a half pint of 18% or 35% cream and turn heat down and simmer for 5 minutes.blend this sauce in with aldente penne noodles and serve with nice salad and fresh crysty italian loaf of bread

6:13 pm

I want to know how someone in a nursing home can afford a hooker!
6:13 pm
crosshair

you can also add sweet baby peas to this
6:13 pm
MimiCat

Guess they get the "senior" rate.....
6:13 pm
crosshair

not the hooker,add peas to the penne a la vodka
6:14 pm

Not many peas...no need to over shadow the bacon!

Unless your into that sort of thing, Crossy...
6:14 pm

Sounds scrumptious, crossy! Am going to copy and paste.
6:14 pm
crosshair

secret is not to use too much butter but just enough.it goes from perfect to too oily in 1/2 a tsp of excess
6:15 pm
MimiCat

---says to guy purchasing the services of the hooker "Do you want peas with that?"
6:16 pm

only if i get a spoon

Peas are tricky...the do roll around...

7:50 pm
rururocks

they called her a troll?
7:50 pm
rururocks

Blue didn't answer me last night when I asked.
7:50 pm
smores

I was off and on last night I musta missed that
7:51 pm
MollyL

They didn't think she was a troll. She was referred to as a troll because she told people to quit their bitchin' and play the game.
7:51 pm
rururocks

bye science sorry i'm not done yet

Hey Mimi :)

Oh, wow---really like Bea!
7:53 pm

It was the usual Smores. Someone who only drops in here to cause trouble and Bea said something about it. She was then referred to as a troll.
7:54 pm
smores

I missed that...wish I had been on...glad she told people to quit their bitchin
7:55 pm
MimiCat

Wow---I hate it when one of our own has trouble....wish I had been there to lend support.

teehee
7:58 pm
MimiCat

So weird...the guy is 75 and his "partner" in crime is 66. They were using crack--addicted women as prostitutes for residents and neighbors....just too strange.
7:58 pm
MimiCat

OK, smores, don't have to em you now...just see last post!
7:59 pm

wow...talk about a senior moment

I love the internet headlines. PBS Says P. Diddy Will Not Be Appearing On Downton Abbey.
Like that was ever going to happen.
8:49 pm
rururocks

can I go on record?
8:50 pm
smores

that's odd
8:51 pm
MollyL

Apparently, Diddy Tweeted that he would be on the show and God knows, whatever is on Twitter is gospel.
8:52 pm
MollyL

*Waits for Ru's record breaking statement*
8:52 pm
rururocks

P. Diddy is a total idiot
8:54 pm
MollyL

Now see I agree with you. And yet people seem to get all scrappy when someone posts an opinion here. Or maybe it's just when I post an opinion. : P
8:56 pm
smores

What!!! How dare you!!!!
8:56 pm
rururocks

god forbid you ever have to defend yourself molly.. you'd be accused of being a tempered child
8:56 pm
smores

just kiddin' :)
8:57 pm
MollyL

: D
8:58 pm
MollyL

It's so amusing to me how people get all fired up when someone posts an opinion that they don't agree with. I watched a minor riot break out on a discussion board the other day because someone had the GALL to say that they thought the Gangnam stuff was crap.
8:59 pm
rururocks

didn't the gangnam have its fifteen minutes already?
9:00 pm
smores

14 too many
9:01 pm
rururocks

it was cute for a bit.. a short bit.. but good grief was it over done
9:01 pm
MollyL

Apparently not. It's being played multiple times by DJs at weddings and it's also being playing during the 7th inning stretch at major league baseball games. There is a reason I don't mix and mingle with the general public very often.
9:02 pm
smores

agree...ruru
9:02 pm
smores

lol...
9:02 pm

Molly
9:02 pm

hmm..my computer is being weird again
9:02 pm
MollyL

I never thought it was cute. I find it highly disturbing.
9:03 pm
rururocks

really?
9:04 pm
smores

I thought it was both disturbing and hilarious...at 1st
9:04 pm
rururocks

I didn't find it disturbing...
9:04 pm
smores

way off done though
9:06 pm
rururocks

I did read back in the chat that Bzz was called a troll.. or maybe you were Molly?...must have been Bzz since you weren't there to comment? I was clueless as to who she was talking about.. all these drive by shootings here are becoming weird
9:07 pm
MollyL

I wasn't here at the time so I was assuming the reference was to Bea. That didn't bother me that much, considering the source. What bothered me is that other people went along with it.
9:07 pm
smores

very weird...can't believe anyone would call her a troll
9:07 pm
penquis

i was here but i couldn't figure out what was going on
9:08 pm
rururocks

me neither.. i did pick up the attitude however
9:08 pm
smores

??? really...I missed it..or was oblivious
9:09 pm
smores

I do recall a troll comment but didn't know either pen
9:09 pm
penquis

there was someone else here i did not know....thought maybe it was referring to him
9:09 pm
smores

I thought someone was warning against putting an email address in chat
9:10 pm
rururocks

I reserve troll comments for the real trolls who show up here (usually 13 or 14 and snotty)
9:11 pm
smores

was only 1/2 here last night...was watching a movie with one daughter...talking to the other and trying to bablble...lol
9:11 pm
smores

feel bad though if Bzzn left because of it
9:13 pm
MollyL

Let me be clear. I just haven't seen her here since then. I didn't mean to imply that she left for good. She was clearly and understandably aggravated by the unnecessary nasty comments being made.
9:14 pm
smores

oh I didn't think she left for good ...just that she felt she had to leave at all is bad
9:17 pm
MimiCat

Just checking back in. Hey, there are those of us who are "regulars" and really care about each other. Anyone who is looking for trouble had better realize they are taking on ALL of us....we will protect each other. Bea is one of ours...and we are here for her.
9:18 pm
smores

:D Hi again MIMI
9:19 pm
MimiCat

Hello, dear.
9:19 pm
MollyL

That is a nice sentiment Mimi, and I agree. However, the usual MO here is to ignore things like that and "oh let's just talk about the weather now". Kind of unfortunate.
9:20 pm
MimiCat

I know I am relatively new but I feel very protective and loyal to this community.
9:20 pm

Let's agree then...we'll talk about the weather as in raining a load of shit on the person insulting Bzzn...or whoever :)

Ah, and so it goes Tor. : D

So for the record and I will say it here. Going to offend but couldn't give a rats arse. Biggest bitch ever. Totally rude and likes to control the chat. Another reason I have stopped chatting. Like me love me I really don't give a flying fuck

Oh, well, crap happens, doesn't it? By and large, I think we have a supportive group and I do care for most of them.

Same here and I appreciate all humour - humour is really important, but I guess some don't!

What I gathered from the Facebook post is that there were hurt feelings caused by one person's comments/attitude, frequent in the chat. I didn't get the sense that it was either 'crap' nor was it 'mud slinging.' Those people had the guts to post under their real names. That's my POV.

penquis

well i am glad i don't do facebook...don't need the drama...
9:45 pm
herinfernallady

I thought you had woofers Ru?
9:46 pm
rururocks

we do.. we have two Goldens
9:46 pm
herinfernallady

I miss seeing the woofers RU

The 'drama' seemed to have occurred here, was addressed, and not heard. I took the Babble Community posts in Facebook to be a last resort type of thing. At least that's how it felt to me.
9:48 pm
rururocks

I think the drama in many cases is self-created..
9:49 pm
penquis

i was here and didn't understand the drama....ah well....i should go to bed...the heck with the remaining words!
9:49 pm
rururocks

night penquis.. it was a tough grid
9:49 pm
penquis

Night penquis. Sleep well :)

rururocks

I call them drive by shootings helen
9:51 pm
rururocks

people with an agenda popping in the chat to blast someone and disappearing.. it's kind of childish
9:51 pm
herinfernallady

I am five -wet willies ruru and runs off
9:52 pm
helenkeller

No ru, this situation was definitely not that - it seemed to be a consistent commentary about one person.
9:52 pm
rururocks

not really helen
9:52 pm
cosdem

I found the FB post to be quite childish.
9:53 pm
helenkeller

I'm not following, ru.
9:53 pm
rururocks

but herin is entitled to her opinion.. not everyone agrees..
9:53 pm
rururocks

you could read back to yesterday's chat.. and figure it out
9:54 pm
rururocks

actually I did too cos.. the little bit I saw of it
9:55 pm
rururocks

i'm off for now..bye all
9:55 pm
helenkeller

Yeah, well that's not happening - but I know the people posting, and they are neither childish, nor are they children.
9:55 pm
Lizlin

Bye ru. Enjoy your evening
9:56 pm
helenkeller

Again, simply my point of view, saddens me to see people in their 'later' years (no offense intended), 70's & 80's, be put off by 'words' to the point where they give up Babble - it's just sad.
