Ruby! I read about the antics of your dogs! You must've been worried!
3:55 am

15% battery left here. Using ipad
3:55 am
rubyfoo

it was horrible, but I've had an extra layer of grille put around the bottom of the garden and I think they're secure now
3:56 am
rubyfoo

(of course, I thought they were secure before). They must be fast diggers
3:56 am
grannyrose

oh good, ruby, so pleased. too much stress for you, darling.
3:56 am
Lizlin

I hope so but thank goodness they were ok
3:56 am
rubyfoo

and I heard from John, so that adness has lifted
3:57 am
rubyfoo

Now if we'd just get some sunshine and warmer weather, all would be well
3:57 am
rubyfoo

sadness*
3:57 am
Lizlin

So glad to hear that. How did he sound?
3:57 am
rubyfoo

sprite says they've been having the same dreadful weather in Holland
3:58 am
Lizlin

Hopefully it'll warm up soon.
3:59 am
rubyfoo

it was just a not, but he apologized for not answering my letter properly, said he was busy busy busy, and signed it "love"
3:59 am
Lizlin

So that's progress then and I'm glad you feel happier about it :)
3:59 am
rubyfoo

note*
4:00 am
grannyrose

awww ruby, sounds like he is sorry, at least
4:00 am
rubyfoo

I think he is just egocentric and ultra-busy --- works 60-80 hours/week and then plays with his band on the weekends
4:01 am
Lizlin

Sounds like a hectic life
4:01 am
rubyfoo

but at least he hasn't "divorced" his mother, as I feared
4:02 am
Lizlin

Wow! 302! Finally broke the 300 barrier but only have 2 x 8s
4:02 am
Lizlin

Surely grown ups don't do that?
4:03 am
grannyrose

*giggle* liz, my beloved eldest son has done just that...divorced me.
4:04 am
Lizlin

Spry! Thought that was a teen thing, but what do I know?
4:04 am
KatieMcG

My husband divorced his mother about 10 years ago, but it was after years of pain and trying not to have to do it
4:04 am
Lizlin

Soory
4:04 am
rubyfoo

actually, they sometimes do. My friend, Catherine, after a life of emotional abuse from her parents, "diverced" them in her mid 50's
4:04 am
Lizlin

I'm so naive!
4:05 am
rubyfoo

I think it's surprisingly common. My sister has no Relationship with her son and he spends 3 wks/month in NY, where she lives
4:06 am
Lizlin

Lots of autocorrection from the iPad, so apologies for typos!
4:06 am
KatieMcG

I have never met my MiL and she wasn't invited to the wedding, after she showed her true colours again we have even had to block her on facebook (including her second account that she tried to sneak in with)
4:06 am
rubyfoo

no, liz, you are like me, probably having had a fine Relationship with your parents or at least having no extra expectations. I feel truly Lucky to have had my parents.
4:06 am
Lizlin

Me too Ruby
4:06 am
rubyfoo

(these caps happen on their own, no input from me)
4:06 am
grannyrose

np's, liz. as far as i'm concerned it's a fact of life. my son chooses to believe the filthy lies my ex spouted, before his death. as i have said before. murderers are allowed to speak up,in their own defence, but not, apparently mothers
4:07 am
Lizlin

Got on really well with my parents and sad that my mum died at 61
4:07 am
rubyfoo

absolutely, rose. I ws afraid that the sh** my ex was telling our son finally "took"
4:07 am
KatieMcG

I have always loved and appreciated my parents but to see how Hubby has blossomed by having good parents (he calls them Mum and Dad) makes me love and appreciate them even more
4:08 am
Lizlin

That's great Katie
4:08 am
rubyfoo

that is wonderful, Katie, when my husband feels sorry for himself (often), he wishes he had had my parents!
4:08 am
Lizlin

My hubby too, Ruby
4:09 am
Lizlin

Though he doesn't feel sorry for himself but wishes he'd known my mum
4:09 am
KatieMcG

I think when you have great parents you think that everyone does so it's been a good lesson for me. He is also a fantastic son to them - we joke that they finally got the child they deserve as he is so thoughtful.
4:09 am
rubyfoo

but, unfortunately, my sister and I both married only sons (me, twice -- duh) and had only sons.

I think I need a good cleanup program, jmc. It is also doing that with my emails. Very frustrating. I ran two free programs but each one only cleaned up a few of the issues. Will look for other free ones and maybe as an aggregate they will clean up enough.
7:43 am

schmorgessbord sounds like a swedish board game. . .
7:43 am

8:54 am
Uneaixoise

no, didn't see that one, mimi
8:54 am

Holly Hunter was in Top mostly, I think, because Jane Campion created and directed it. She directed her in "The Piano." A little trivia there!
8:54 am

You should watch it, Une...it's a lot of fun and very different.
8:55 am

champ. if you would like to help that would be appreciated. it almost sounds as if the buyers are also her clients
7:49 pm

In Texas, she's your agent, and can represent them, but not as much as she represents you. Yes, please email and I'll explain.

did you cancel the listing? when?
7:50 pm

thank you. i have read a bit but it seems like an impossible task. someone is going to get the short end of this. and i think she has to telll us writing and get our signnature

7:52 pm

Here, the person getting the short end is the buyer. If she's listing your house, she represents YOU. If she does both, then the buyer gets her representation, but very limited information.
7:52 pm

AND...if it's not in writing, it's nothing. Paper, paper, paper.
