7:00 am

Trifioso

not to be obnoxious, but can I just gush for one second....my life is SO much more fun these days...I play tennis, golf, I go roller blading, he takes me out dancing, we go to the beach....seriously, it's SO NICE to be "alive" again.

7:01 am

car.eeyore

:) I am happy that you are happy!!!

7:01 am

Trifioso

its odd. and not always constant. but for today, i am choosing to be happy about it

7:02 am

Trifioso

its just that I never thought I was cut out for this kind of life. figured I was done and that was it. this whole thing has been a present surprise

7:04 am

car.eeyore

Must get Dyl off to school, mom off to Carewell, Matt to the dentist, and a Rx called in for Zack. If you need me, I will be at the church later folding bulletins...and would love some company!!!!

7:05 am

Trifioso

im doing a four hour testing today, starting at 9. when are you finished at church?

7:05 am

7:45 am

crosshair

my memory is shot,but i still remember every second of us standing in front of the minister..well not everything he said,that was a far off drone untill i had to answer things.i was staring into her eyes,the way the sunlight caught the hues and colours in them and bared her soul to me,the laugh lines around her eyes,her hair cascading down over her shoulders..the way she seemed so poised yet the boquet was shaking in her hands,the glow of her skin,the flush on her cheeks.lol,not sure what else was going on,but yes i remember it well;))

7:45 am

8:45 am

Sue is in the grid TWICE. Good sign.

8:52 am

Andee

Anyone else in Ontario just feel an earthquake?

8:53 am

Jen34

yw :)

8:57 am

Judi

Greetings, fellow Class M planet inhabitants.

8:57 am

Riverdance

uh oh....earthquake?

8:57 am

Riverdance

Carlee started her new job this morning so would not be on babble - she lives in ontario

8:57 am

Judi

Cool. How strong was it, Andee?

8:58 am

Andee

Not strong. But I thought maybe it was just my imagination.

8:59 am

Jen34

I love the randomness of the chog -- it looks like I'm taking credit for the earthquake. Which I am, of course.

9:00 am

Riverdance

nothing on google yet....last earthquake reported in Ontario was April 15, 2013 near the Quebec border

9:00 am

Andee

Well Jen, you are very talented and powerful

9:01 am

Jen34

No, stop, really . . .

9:02 am

Jen34

:)

9:07 am

Hazzardous

This is very odd. I have felt the house shaking and heard the china rattling twice in the last 10-15 minutes. But you are in Niagara, Andee, and I am in Ottawa - pretty far apart to both be feeling the same seismic event

9:07 am

Judi

There was an earthquake in Chile about 20 minutes ago. Not related to Ontario, obviously.

9:08 am

Judi

Interesting. Canada has the wiggles this morning.

9:08 am

Andee

They are now reporting a 4.8 earthquake felt through Ontario this morning

9:10 am

crosshair

i feel nothing here,but have no idea where you are situated

9:10 am

Judi

Just a baby quake. No biggy.

9:13 am

Hazzardous

The epicentre seems to be Shawville or Aylmer - just across the river from Ottawa. I'm still amazed that you felt it in Niagara!

9:15 am

crosshair

ahh 6 hour drive east of me

9:15 am

Judi

Must be on the same fault line.

9:15 am

crosshair

i can get to ottawa in 5-6 hours

9:16 am

Hazzardous

Where are you, Crossy?

9:21 am

Judi

I'd rather have an earthquake than a plague of cicadas.

9:23 am

Judi

Name that proper noun: Dr. of childrens literature.

Ding! Ding! Ding!

love his books

9:26 am

Judi

Who doesn't? Essential reading for all human beings.

9:27 am

wvteach

Gave my son "Oh the Places You'll Go" for his HS graduation - read it to my students as they moved on to middle school

9:28 am

wvteach

"Green Eggs and Ham" was the first book that my granddaughter read for herself

9:29 am

puglet

good day everyone!

9:29 am

wvteach

hello puglet

9:29 am

Judi

Hiya, puglet!

9:30 am

Judi

So, wvteach. Do you still teach?

9:30 am

puglet

eoise

9:30 am

puglet

sorry

9:30 am

puglet

lost my way--lol

9:30 am

wvteach

this is 4th year of retirement

9:31 am

Scrabbler

Good day to all. We just felt an earthquake--40 minutes ago. Centered in Quebec but felt in Buffalo area. Has Crossy been here? He is closer.

9:31 am

wvteach

loved teaching, but also love retirement

9:31 am

Judi

Good for you! I just read your profile. Do you buy books for your grandkids? And if you do, do they actually read them?

9:32 am

puglet

Hi Scrabbler

9:32 am

Judi

Hi, Scrabbs - see earthquake chat at 8:57.

9:33 am

wvteach

my granddaughter (7 year old, 1st grader) is always readaing books. Has gone through ther Magic
Tree House book series. The 2 year old will let you read books with him, but not the way his sister did at that age

9:34 am

Scrabbler

Aha.

9:34 am

wvteach

The 14 year old knows how to download books to his phone and reads them on there.

9:34 am

Judi

That's great to hear. So many kids don't read today. Nor do they have books read to them. Crazy. I always loved books.

9:34 am

Scrabbler

wv, my middle nephew, now 23 and majoring in computer engineering, read his first book at 4--Green Eggs and Ham

9:35 am

wvteach

Need to have their parents / grandparents model it for them. If they see adults read / going to the library / hanging out in book stores they are more likely to read.

9:36 am

Scrabbler

In my office I ask kids about their hobbies--not many readers, especially among boys. Sad.

9:36 am

Judi

I remember being able to read before I entered kindergarten. So many children don't even know the alphabet now before being enrolled in school. And I know that's not just a problem in our crappy public school system here in Delaware.

9:36 am

wvteach

Alana - my granddaughter - was reading by 4 and read Green Eggs and Ham to her 4 year old kindergarten class one year and the 5 year old kindergarten the next year on Dr Seuss's birthday (March 1, I think)

9:37 am

hurshy

metoometoometoo i could read and the teachers just patronized my parents and said, "a lot of parent THINK their kids can read but really they just have certain books memorized..."

9:37 am

wvteach

The 2 year old has listened to his sister and also to shows on PBS and knows his alphabet and recognizes the lagnetic alphabet letters on my refrigerator

9:38 am

Judi

Reading is such an essential life skill. Kids were expected to know letters, numbers, colors, etc. before entering kindergarten. Now, parents just throw them in, sink or swim.

9:38 am

Scrabbler

We have universal pre-K in New York state, and many kids go to Head Start, so most entering kindergartners know the alphabet...but the biggest problem is that kids have not been taught manners, respect and responsibility.

9:38 am

wvteach

Luckily her teachers have encouraged her to read

9:39 am

Judi

Amen to that Scrabbler. I blame "incidental" parents.

9:39 am

Scrabbler

Hurshy, we have talked before about the sad state of education of gifted kids.

9:39 am

Scrabbler

At least in the elementary years, I mean.

9:39 am

wvteach

Scrabs - that is so important to also learn. The two year old loves to say "you're welcome" and will wait for you to say thank you so he can say that

9:40 am

Judi

Home schooling is becoming more popular. Rightly so, I think.

9:40 am

Scrabbler

Judi--parents are friends with their kids, not the teachers and leaders that they must be.

9:41 am

Scrabbler

I see that too, Judi, and encourage parents to homeschool, particularly bright, ambitious kids, and then those kids just flourish!

9:41 am

wvteach

as a teacher myself i knew that i could not be a "good" teacher for my own kids - provided them with lots of experiences, books everywhere, but did not have the extra patience with them that i did with other kids

9:41 am

Judi

I'm not a parent, but I work at a police station. I see the by-products of disconnected parents and disconnected children on a daily basis.

9:42 am

Scrabbler

But you were a GREAT teacher for your kids, wv, because you enriched their learning and life

9:42 am

puglet

Amen to that! My sister is raising her grandson and I get so upset with her cause she lets him tell her what and when

9:43 am

Scrabbler

So many parents create child-centered homes, and are afraid to "hurt their kid's feelings."

9:44 am

rubyfoo

back, just read over the interesting chog. I, too, think reading is the most important skill, but although they tested me and put me into kindergarten at only 4 1/2, no one encouraged me to read early

9:44 am

Judi

They are doing more harm than good. Hence the term "entitlement generation". Teaching manners and self-sufficiency is critical. How else do you expect your child to survive in the real world?

9:44 am

Scrabbler

Literacy is crucial to school success and life.

9:44 am

wvteach

I worry most about the adult-centered homes where the adults are busy with thier work and their own entertainment - not involving their children, bringing their kids with them on their travels

9:44 am

Scrabbler

Amen, Judi

9:45 am

rubyfoo

when asked, in 1st grade, what was the most important word, I said "elephant"

9:45 am

wvteach

we encouraged them to read by having books around the house, taking them to the library, but never actively thought about "teaching" them to read

9:45 am

puglet

I have no childeren of my own(lost a daughter in my earlier years) but Iam worried for her as hes becoming a teenager here in a couple of years. Iam afraid she wont be able to handle whats ahead

9:46 am

Scrabbler

puglet--great resource = www.empoweringparents.com

9:46 am

rubyfoo

thesre were books in the house and I was read to, but never thought to learn until I went to school

9:46 am

rubyfoo

9:46 am

Scrabbler

Yes, wv, there are many neglected kids due to self-absorbed parents.

9:46 am

puglet

Hi Ruby--see you got my e-mail--

9:46 am

Scrabbler

Hi Ruby

9:47 am

Scrabbler

I am sad to hear about your daughter, puglet

9:47 am

rubyfoo

It's raining again! At least I got in an hour of weeding before it started

9:47 am

Judi

Kids have far too many electrical distractions now too. Television is bad enough, but smart phones, video games, Facebook, etc. I think they've really dumbed down the population.

9:48 am

rubyfoo

it is incredibly cold and miserable out but at least i heard from my son, so I'm OK again

9:48 am

Scrabbler

Yes, no limits are enforced.

9:48 am

puglet

thank you Scrabbler--I got five sisters and that gives me plenty of n&n

9:48 am

puglet

Iam so glad Ruby that you did

9:49 am

rubyfoo

I would not like to be the parent of a Young child today. It is awful what they show on prime-time TV in France -- shocking even for adults

9:49 am

Scrabbler

Parents need to think about what kind of adults they want to create, then put in the hard work to do so.

9:49 am

Judi

So true, Ruby. There's a lot less filtering of inappropriate material in all media.

9:50 am

wvteach

it IS hard work to focus on the children and spend time doing things with them

9:50 am

rubyfoo

I've been away from the US for a long time now, but can't imagine that it's could be as bad as here vis-à-vis nudity, violence and such

9:51 am

Scrabbler

I do see parents and families that I greatly admire, and those sustain me in my pediatric practice. But they make up perhaps 20% of my families.

9:51 am

puglet

I cant get over the talk out of babies mouths now adays. I would never think to talk like that to my parents

9:51 am

rubyfoo

that's true, puglet

9:52 am

Scrabbler

Wimpy, spineless parents.

9:52 am

Judi

Not so much nudity, ruby. Violence is prevalent in TV & movies here.

9:52 am

rubyfoo

here, it's explicit nudity even in trailers for films and at 8 in the evening

9:52 am

Judi

I for one, don't mind the nudity. *wink wink nudge nudge*

9:53 am

rubyfoo

even the commercials are awful, talking about stuff that would be impossible to explain to a child

9:54 am

rubyfoo

<--loves judi

9:54 am

puglet

It all depends on whats nude--lol---------Drugs plays alot in the roll of some families and young teens too

9:55 am

lynxxx

Hello everyone **slumps into deep chair for a bit of mindless Babble play**

9:55 am

rubyfoo

9:55 am

puglet

Hello Lyn

9:55 am

Judi

Drugs, alcohol. I think the biggest problem is parental indifference. People just expect schools to totally raise and educate their children. Huge mistake.

9:56 am

lynxxx

wow - then it is not just me getting old - I find I am switching of the TV more and more these days - I thought I was just getting old and more prudish

9:56 am

MimiCat

Scrabbler, I agree with you about spineless parents. When I was raising my kids I gave them total love but also total discipline. If I said "Do this or else" you could take "or else" to the bank...it was going to happen! They all now have degrees and good lives.

9:56 am

rubyfoo

I think meth is a bigger problem in the US than here, but all the rest is probably the same

9:57 am

rubyfoo

hiya mimi

9:57 am

Judi

Kids aren't puppies, for cripe sake. You can't just feed them then send them off for someone else to discipline and train.

9:57 am

rubyfoo

I don't think the French are smart enough to cook it (but don't quote me)

9:57 am

MimiCat

Yes, ruby, meth is ruining so many lives here. It just baffles me why anyone would even try that poison.

9:58 am

Judi

Drugs are trendy here in the U.S. Meaning, popularity wains from high to high. Heroin is back in after years of almost non-existence.

9:59 am

rubyfoo

perhaps it's a bigger problem in the cities here than I'm aware of, here in the country

9:59 am

Judi

"Bath salts" - which were neither for baths nor contained salt - were popular here. It was just some unknown chemical concoction that was cheap and easy to come by. The down side was that it caused halucinations and violent behavior.

10:00 am

Scrabbler

Oops, I grabbed a section of the newspaper and wasn't here.

10:00 am

puglet

I dont understand the need to get high and take the chance to destroy your brain for life. Its as if they care so little for their lifes

10:00 am

rubyfoo

bath salts????

10:00 am

rubyfoo

and now I don my chef's hat

10:00 am

rubyfoo

see you after dinner

10:00 am

Judi

Bath salts have since been banned in most states now.

10:00 am

rubyfoo

*woof*

10:01 am

MimiCat

Did you see my post to you, Scrab?

10:01 am

Scrabbler

Opiates are the big drugs here starting in middle school--hydrocodone, oxycodone, etc. Then kids switch to heroin because it's less expensive.

10:01 am

puglet

and I seen on tv that kids are snorting those smarties candies after crushing them and now they are seeing if they can swollow a tablespoon of cinnimon

10:01 am

Scrabbler

Yes, Mimi. I am proud of you!

10:02 am

Judi

Yep. Prescription drugs are the biggest problem right now.

10:02 am

rubyfoo

that is really interesting

10:02 am

Judi

Anyone have a clue for the last Su7, Su9 and Su8?

10:02 am

Scrabbler

And cold/cough meds too--dextromethorphan, pseudoephedrine--easy access.

10:03 am

rururocks

yeah.. they have to save them for us.. their adults.. we need them more than them. :D

10:03 am

Judi

Oops. NM. It they just jumped out at me.

10:03 am

rubyfoo

su7 keep it going and then other forms

10:03 am

MimiCat

I do understand the need to escape one's own mind and emotions...I had an issue with the codone family (clean now for 7 years) but experimenting with stuff in which there could easily be real poisons...that I don't understand.

10:04 am

Scrabbler

The su- words are not jumping out at me yet.

10:04 am

Judi

Yeah. That stuff is crazy. I've always been afraid of anything other than marijuana. The other stuff is just too unpredictable.

10:05 am

MimiCat

It's not like you can hide being a meth addict-----shows all over your face with skin lesions.

10:05 am

puglet

I tried pot when I was younger--hated it--it made me throw up everytime--

10:06 am

Judi

Meth is HORRIBLE. I have seen 20-somethings with the teeth corroded right out of their heads.

10:07 am

rururocks

I tried pot.. but I didn't inhale :D

I grew up in the 60's but never understood LSD...why would anyone want to intentionally hallucinate? I find that frightening.

10:07 am

Judi

LOL, Ruru. Suuuuuuure.

10:07 am

puglet

Iam hooked on tobacco and thats bad enough

10:08 am

rururocks

tobacco is worse than heroin

10:08 am

MimiCat

I liked pot a bit in my early 20's...but it made me fall asleep and I didn't want the weight gain from having the munchies.

10:08 am

jan

issei

10:08 am

puglet

Ive tried many times to quit and just havent done itYET

10:09 am

rururocks

and a free clue from jan

10:09 am

Scrabbler

TY, Jan, I didn't see that one yet

10:09 am

Judi

I see a lot of people using those vapor cigs now, puglet. Everyone swears by them.

10:10 am

Judi

Thanks, Jan.

10:10 am

MimiCat

{{ruru}} Yes, I read an article stating that nicotine is the most addictive substance known. I believe it...so many people want to stop and can't. I've never tried it and don't intend to......saw that addiction kill my father slowly and painfully.

10:10 am

Scrabbler

I never even liked alcohol and never tried anything else.

10:10 am

hurshy

scrabbler, as a doctor, please comment on this claim that tobacco is worse than heroin.

10:10 am

rururocks

as far as addictioni hursh

10:11 am

rururocks

Heroin is a truly awful dangerous drug

10:12 am

Scrabbler

I don't know much about addictions, Hursh.

10:12 am

rururocks

I do

10:12 am

hurshy

well, i know a doctor who treats heroin addicts and from what HE has said, i am skeptical about this claim regarding tobacco.

10:12 am

Scrabbler

I tell my patients to stay away from all of the bad stuff.

10:13 am

hurshy

i could buy tobacco being more addictive than marijuana, sure. but heroin?

10:13 am

Scrabbler

Some brains are predisposed to addictions. There are physiologic and psychological factors.

10:13 am

rururocks

in take of cigarettes is often more frequent than heroin. it is harder to quit cigarettes than any other drug

10:14 am

hurshy

this doctor i know says that heroin is like, sixty times better than sex at stimulating the pleasure centers of the brain.

10:14 am

MimiCat

Hurshy, just because something is considered "more addictive" does not mean it is more harmful necessarily. Nicotine takes a much longer time generally to harm you than heroin.

10:14 am

puglet

Ive thought about them Judi but just havent tried it out yet--dont want to fail again

10:14 am

hurshy

since it SO STRONGLY stimulates your pleasure centers, that's what makes it SO ADDICTIVE.

10:14 am

Scrabbler

Ultimately, addictions are behavior problems.

10:15 am

rururocks

I would now doubt that doctor.. nothing stimulates my brain more than sex :D

10:15 am

Scrabbler

Whether alcohol, food, sex, gambling, drugs, tobacco---behavior problems, lack of self-respect, lack of self-discipline.

10:15 am

Judi

I have heard that kicking cigs is more difficult than kicking heroin. Something about nicotine staying in your body for along time. Whereas the heroin high gets used up and you start needing more and more to even maintain normalcy.

10:16 am

MimiCat

I agree that they start out as behavior issues but do then become physiological. That's when people do the drugs just to keep from being sick and aren't getting high anymore....I know about that.

10:16 am

Judi

*subscribes French television for Ruru*

10:17 am

Judi

*prescribes* rather.

10:17 am

rururocks

there you go hurshy.. cigaretttes are the most harmful drugs on the planet

10:18 am

MimiCat

Just found the jo7/56...happy, happy!

10:18 am

rururocks

I don't watch much TV judi...sorry

10:20 am

rururocks

thanks for that article molly.. kind of proves my point

10:21 am

Scrabbler

I found su6 but need help with the longer su- words, please.

10:21 am

*turns fan on in the smoke-filled PB* Looks like the cabana boys have gotten into the ganja again.

10:21 am

rururocks

10:21 am

Judi

Thought I smelled brownies cooking.

10:22 am

rururocks

*thinks Judi is a pothead *
:D

10:22 am

Scrabbler

TY, Ruru

10:22 am

rururocks

a conservative pothead

10:23 am

Judi

Nah. I haven't smoked that stuff in decades. I wouldn't mind having a little stash to treat myself with tho.

10:23 am

puglet

In the brownies? lal

10:23 am

rururocks

LOL... I knew that

10:23 am

Judi

Ha ha. Better to smoke the pot than drink the Kool Aid!

10:24 am

hurshy

nobody is mentioning the elephant in the room

10:24 am

rururocks

elephant?

10:24 am

MimiCat

What elephant?

10:24 am

Judi

Yes. Let's not have this intelligent discussion be hijacked by political overtones.

10:24 am

hurshy

the addictive power of babble

10:24 am

rururocks

oh

10:25 am

rururocks

there aren't any support groups for babble yet hursh

10:25 am

Judi

Babble's not an addiction! It's...er...um...a way of life.

10:25 am

MimiCat

Should we consider it a harmless addiction?

10:25 am

MimiCat

When my computer crashed I thought about starting a support group for Google withdrawal.......

10:26 am

hurshy

i once failed to show up at a calculus class i was supposed to be teaching because i was babbling, i don't think it's harmless.

10:26 am

Judi

lol. I think "harmless addiction" is an oxymoron.

10:26 am

rururocks

HI I'm ru.. i'm a babble addict.. it started so innocently with smaller grids...

10:26 am

puglet

not here for just the puzzle but the people--I think this is the cure for all things-lol

10:26 am

Scrabbler

I used to stay up late just to finish grids. Now I aim to pass halfway. I freed up lots of time.

10:26 am

MimiCat

Nah...no morons of any kind here!

10:26 am

MimiCat

LOL, ruru!

10:27 am

Scrabbler

The small grids not longer produce a rush for you, right, Ru?

10:27 am

rururocks

right

10:27 am

MimiCat

I am totally free of any pressure to finish grids. I enjoy getting the words I can and then just forget about it. Such an underachiever!

10:28 am

Judi

Ruru always thinks bigger is better. *smirk*

10:28 am

MollyL

The 744 word grid and those who finished it. That weeded out the hard core addicts from those just dabbling in addiction.

10:28 am

hurshy

that is true, has to be over 200 for there to be any sort of rush

10:28 am

MimiCat

Wow---744! Would love to have gotten into that one....and not finished!

10:29 am

rururocks

bigger IS better judi.. always :D

10:29 am

Scrabbler

I just knew you would say that, Ru!

10:29 am

MimiCat

Amen to that, ruru.....if memory serves........!

10:29 am

Judi

Pffth. Not according to my waistline. Bigger is blubber.

1:20 pm

zoozzoom

Yes river..they are nice..i like yoghurt coated peanuts too :-)

1:21 pm

zoozzoom

My mother got me into them, Sprite..very yummy.

1:22 pm

sprite

cranberries are very good for you... and dark chocolate in moderation as well :)

1:23 pm

zoozzoom

Yes i think they say it has to be 60% dark chocolate to get any benefits from it.

1:24 pm

sprite

yes at least. We can get 85% here at the supermarket. Very tasty.

1:24 pm

zoozzoom

85% wow is that very bitter?

1:25 pm

sprite

yes, bitter but in a good way. Still sweet too, since it is chocolate.

1:25 pm

cybernan

1:26 pm

cybernan

nm - found it

1:26 pm

zoozzoom

Will have to look out for it...not usually a fan of very dark chocolate..but will give it a go..i normally prefer..belgium chocolate.

1:27 pm

sprite

hehehe yes that is yummy too

1:28 pm

sprite

buy very dark chocolate, melt it au bain marie, cut up a load of cranberries, pour chocolate out over cranberries in a serving tray or something like that, let cool and harden, break up in pieces. Yummy!

4:20 pm

this actually happened to me two winters ago during the running of the skier citiots we get up here...mrs and i were in line with our stuff at the store and ahead of us are 2 citiots (you know they are citiots because they are trying to wear their ski boots and goggles while clomping through the store) and one turns to the other and says" i really wish all the locals would shop during the weeks so we do not have to wait so long)..the wife almost had to gag me to stop me from commenting to them on that little gem

4:20 pm

TraderKate

for some reason, i thought you were from the west somewhere pen...oops

4:21 pm

i wouldn't have been able to contain myself crossy, yu acquitted yourself very well !

4:21 pm

i just managed it by banging my head on the candy bar rack till they went away

4:22 pm

TraderKate

and you imagine the nerve of the townies to get in our way and hld us up??? don't they know how very important we are????? hehehhe

4:22 pm

crosshair

omg

4:23 pm

crosshair

they clog u our emerg so badly with broken legs and wrists from december till the end of march that us locals end up driving to a hospital an hour away in another town for treatment

4:24 pm

TraderKate

:(
hope none of the locals get sick during the winter....

4:25 pm

crosshair

however,our bars,restaraunts and hotels do well while they are here as well as the resorts on the hills.

4:27 pm

crosshair

the bad scenario is that blue mountain villiage is almost a town unto itself,minus any gas stations of course and what happens is they pack all the booze and food they need for the entire week and once they get on the hill,they do not come down till it is time to go home,so other business suffer.it is a odd thing

4:28 pm

crosshair

if they stay in town and drive to the hill every day,you are ok,if they stay on the hill,you may as well close shop till they go home

4:31 pm

TraderKate

you can't win for losing sometimes crossy, sorry at the library and when time is up yyou just get kicked out of the system and have to log in again.....then i have to get babble expert through my e-mail... it takes time

4:33 pm

TraderKate

thinki would prefer they stay on the mountain... at least they are out of your hair...... but as you say, the local pubs etc. would suffer.. bbs

5:10 pm

uusue2

hi Jill! he will indeed :-)

5:10 pm

uusue2

(actually it will be pretty low key but today is usually the lowest point in his treatment cycle, just happened to be the best day for the wedding on everybody's schedule)

5:10 pm

Jillyjill

As you can see, we all are so very happy for you and Frank!!

5:11 pm

uusue2

that is so sweet of all of you!!

5:12 pm

uusue2

his oncology nurse gave us a big basket of herbs for the kitchen - also very sweet :-)

5:12 pm

Soodle

((((((Sue))))))). Have you got your 'Something Old, Something New, Something Borrowed, Something Blue'?

5:12 pm

uusue2

hi soodle! hmmm, will have to think about that...

5:12 pm

stidgmere

Hello. What am I hearing? Wedding bells? Oh, my favorite sound.

5:12 pm

Jillyjill

LOVE your icon soodle!!

5:13 pm

uusue2

I mean, I'm old, the rings are new, hmmm.

5:13 pm

uusue2

hi gmere!

5:13 pm

Soodle

Ah, Jilly. The sad bit is thats it's actually true!

5:13 pm

Jillyjill

It is for most of us on weekends!!

5:14 pm

stidgmere

What a wonderful event. All my wishes for a wonderful life.

5:14 pm

uusue2

thank you, gmere!!

5:14 pm

Soodle

Quick, borrow something, and get something blue!! (i'm ridiculously supersticious)

5:15 pm

uusue2

I have some blue undies, and I'm sure we can borrow some matches from the minister when we light the candles, does that count?

5:16 pm

Jillyjill

Me too...I had most of it in one, my grandmother's necklace (leant to me by my aunt) that was 100 years old and blue!

5:16 pm

Jillyjill

Borrow a hankerchief from someone...

5:17 pm

stidgmere

Now wait a minute. Birthday candles on a wedding cake? No. Borrow someones credit card for a night out.

5:17 pm

Jillyjill

Oh grandmere.. perfect thought!!

5:17 pm

uusue2

no, we're lighting a unity candle as part of the ceremony

5:18 pm

Soodle

Absolutely perfect, Sue!!! You go, Girl!!

5:18 pm

uusue2

so we each light our own candle, then use the two of them to light a single big one

5:18 pm

uusue2

we willl be borrowing candle holders for that...

5:18 pm

stidgmere

Okay. Unity candles do make lovely sense and the symbolism is very touching.

5:19 pm

Soodle

Jilly, that was a lovely idea!

5:20 pm

Soodle

Oooh, I'm actually getting misty eyed for the pair of you Sue. Hugs and hugs and hugs!

5:20 pm

uusue2

thank you so much, soodle! I'm being kind of blase about it now but I'm sure when the time comes I will be all teary-eyed

5:21 pm

Soodle

Pics ASAP, please! You are such a handsome couple, I can't wait to see them.

5:22 pm

uusue2

also I just finished burning our CD, not sure if we'll play all three songs but we have When I'm 64, True Love Leaves No Traces, and The Songs of Wandering Aengus (words by Yeats)

5:22 pm

uusue2

Soodle

Where is the ceremony taking place?

6:03 pm

uusue2

at the minister's house, she has a lovely garden

6:03 pm

uusue2

and it looks like the rain has passed us by

6:04 pm

Soodle

Oh, that sounds lovely. I'm so glad Its not at the hospital. May the sun shine on you both.

6:06 pm

uusue2

no, Frank is actually doing pretty well, so we see the hospital only in passing. If you ran into him on the street you wouldn't know he was sick.

6:08 pm

Soodle

Well, thats even better!! Less than an hour to go before he makes 'an honest woman of you'......as they say here! Lol

6:09 pm

uusue2

yes, we say that here too :-)

6:12 pm

Soodle

Sue, its past midnight here, & I'm heading off to bed. Once again, may I wish you both all the happiness in the world. Hearty congratulations, and I don't want to see you in the chat for at least a week!! I hope you will be 'otherwise engaged'!

6:12 pm

uusue2

night, soodle! And we won't have a honeymoon yet but we do have a very nice trip planned for later in the year

7:29 pm

crosshair

7:29 pm

dianedecoder

We've been down there 6 times now... our son built a home in Casa Grande. They go down in the summer,... you just stay where it's air conditioned, or by the pool. And if you want to golf, it HAS to be very early in the morning !!

7:29 pm

blueheron

I love my New England weather..If you don't like it, wait a minute.

7:30 pm

smores

:) same with Indiana heron

7:30 pm

dianedecoder

I like my Alberta weather too.... same thing blueheron !

7:30 pm

Christa

dianedecoder

I"m actually a great grandparent !!

7:32 pm

dianedecoder

Wonderful. So coming to Casa Grande has it added benefits for you.

7:32 pm

smores

wow

7:33 pm

blueheron

I have one grandchild and another on the way.

7:34 pm

dianedecoder

We do enjoy it... hubby loves to golf and so do I when my knees allow it. It's a lovely home and we settle right in for 3 or 4 months !

7:34 pm

dianedecoder

7:35 pm

Christa

ditto

7:37 pm

blueheron

I just wanted to know about your knee problems.

7:38 pm

rururocks

"jesus was not found in the dictionary"

7:38 pm

dianedecoder

arthritis in both of them...not quite ready for replacements. It's a big step and results not always perfect.

7:38 pm

blueheron

really?

7:38 pm

smores

looked in the wrong book ruru :)

7:39 pm

dianedecoder

try "Bethlehem", ruru :-)

7:39 pm

smores

definately a proper noun :)

7:40 pm

blueheron

I have only one option left for my knee, surgery.

7:41 pm

smores

finally reached 100...taking a break

7:41 pm

dianedecoder

I've had arthroscopic surgery on both of them but it only helps for so long. Cortisone helps but not a frequent option.

7:42 pm

blueheron

same here diane.

7:43 pm

blueheron

hey ru..would you like to pun for a few?

7:43 pm

rururocks

not really...laying low right now.

7:43 pm

rururocks

I'm trying to finish this stinker of a grid

7:44 pm

gremlinn

"jesus" may not be in the dictionary, but a related word was (je6/7, my last words) - fireworks unaided

7:45 pm

dianedecoder

thanks gremlinn.... I didn't have those two !

7:45 pm

blueheron

ru, so you are out straight.

7:46 pm

rururocks

?? not sure what that means blue

7:46 pm

dianedecoder

laying low

7:46 pm

blueheron

ha!!

7:47 pm

dianedecoder

prone or supine

7:48 pm

gremlinn

is there a word for "on your side"?

7:48 pm

dianedecoder

not sure :-)

7:48 pm

blueheron

wunderful...(sp)

7:48 pm

blueheron

oys

7:49 pm

gremlinn

Ah, it's "semiprone". Wow, I thought maybe I remembered that word, and it turns to mean just that.

7:49 pm

dianedecoder

good for you !

7:50 pm

gremlinn

Not a Babble word, though

7:51 pm

blueheron

enable dictionary is not normal.

7:52 pm

gremlinn

I think we need a cultural movement - a movement to unify the dictionaries.

7:52 pm

blueheron

yes, I'm all for it!!

7:53 pm

dianedecoder

I'm not sure what enable is.... I've never used it.

7:54 pm

gremlinn

Stands for "Enhanced North American Benchmark Lexicon" apparently

7:54 pm

blueheron

enable is the dictionary that Babble was created from.

7:54 pm

smores

:D we use it all the time diane

7:55 pm

dianedecoder

I see that it drives some people crazy, and I don't need that... :-)

7:55 pm

gapeach

May I please have a clue for mu8-50? Thanks

7:56 pm

blueheron

smores, do you really think that this source of information is ok?

7:56 pm

dianedecoder

not there yet, peach.

7:56 pm

Christa

I didn't know that Blue. And I've been playing since 2005. Thank you and this why I love this game.

7:56 pm

gremlinn

mu8 has a "most" ending

7:56 pm

smores

?? not following heron

7:57 pm

gapeach

Thanks much, gremlinn.

7:57 pm

licketySplitAUS

Hi everyone, Happy 17th/18th May

7:57 pm

smores

teehee diane... agree, although it is a short drive for me :)

7:58 pm

licketySplitAUS

Why? why the heck not!

7:58 pm

gremlinn

Enable is just a list of words. It's not something you really "use" other than just being familiar with what's in it.

7:58 pm

gapeach

Thank you lickety.

7:58 pm

smores

Hey lickety :D

7:58 pm

dianedecoder

Hi Lickety

8:03 pm

licketySplitAUS

I was just popping in, gotta go - Selling my late father's car for my mother, and a potential buyer is knocking on the door.

8:03 pm

gremlinn

Well, I knew it was a word (having seen it in a biology textbook) from a long time ago, and then it was almost in a grid on another Boggle site (I think only the S had to be moved over one tile). Got me curious what the general meaning was.

8:03 pm

crayola
