How are you feeling Rose?--sorry about the other day, I lost my signal on the comput
3:59 am
rubyfoo

hello?
4:00 am
puglet

Howdy Ruby--how are you?
4:00 am
rubyfoo

What a bad day for a tiny grid! It is raining and cold and husband is so angry with me (over something HE did), that he won't go to lunch with me. That is my punishment
4:00 am
rubyfoo

Today would have been a good day for a 400=word grid!
4:01 am
puglet

ahhh Ruby so sorry your world is so dreery today
4:01 am
rubyfoo

husband is getting worse and worse. He gets up at 4 and then sleeps at all the wrong times
4:01 am
puglet

Its cold here too but no rain until tonight for us
4:02 am
rubyfoo

we're in a full moon period, so the nights are bright with moon shadows in the garden, but then the rain starts, come morning
4:02 am
puglet

Maybe a nice quiet lunch would be nice for you
4:03 am
rubyfoo

{{little pug}} -- I put that in my entered words box duh
4:03 am
rubyfoo

I'll go to the local Italian resto alone, but it's a shame that he is like that
4:04 am
puglet

yeah I know all about hubby's that are on the crude side
4:08 am
puglet

My guy is really bad about taking responsibility for his own actions!
4:09 am
rubyfoo

in this case, it was the usual thing where he loads the fireplace wrong so that when I go to add another log, burning chunks of wood fall out. So he says it's my fault, that I waas messing with his fire
4:10 am
rubyfoo

if he was younger, I'm sure he'd leave, but at this point, where in the world would he go? He's almost 88
4:11 am
puglet

is he bitter with the world? Or bitter about getting old?
4:12 am
rubyfoo

both. And is losing, very rapidly, his short-term memory. Spends his time rummaging around in the past, trying to re-make his memories of his awful parents
4:13 am
rubyfoo

and I'm sure that I'm less sympathetic than I should be, but I am stuck with all the responsibilities
4:13 am
puglet

I didnt know there were a his and hers fire--lol--That maybe is out of place--just trying to lighten up your thoughts
4:14 am
rubyfoo

too funny! except one of these days, he'll burn the house down
4:15 am
puglet

Yeah I know that feeling all too well! You just got to find ways to keep your own sanity through all this
4:17 am
puglet

at his age I dont think you are going to change too much about him---Are you alot younger then him Ruby
4:17 am
rubyfoo

you help a lot, pug, with your sympathetic, non-judgmental ear. Pls forgive me for whining
4:17 am
rubyfoo

18 years
4:18 am
rubyfoo

it didn't seem like much when he was 60!
4:18 am
puglet

no need to feel bad Ruby we all need a ear once in awhile--Wish I was close enough to give ya a hug or better yet go out to eat with you
4:19 am
puglet

My hubby is about ten years older than I
4:19 am
rubyfoo

that would be fun! The resto isn't great, but it's very close, 3 mins by car. I'd walk, but it's pouring
4:20 am
rubyfoo

and they have two dogs, one, a Malinois, is y boyfriend. The other is a Coton de Tuléar (sp?)
4:21 am
rubyfoo

He's like a German shephere only prettier and very well-trained. He and I are in love.
4:21 am
puglet

I rather like walking in the rain---and I like the rain as well--Its like it washes all your worries away--You know Ruby nothing can grrow with out water(not even us)
4:21 am
rubyfoo

and the people are really nice, almost like family
4:22 am
rubyfoo

I like the rain, too, but not when it's 40F
4:23 am
puglet

well thats nice Ruby you got a place to go to like that.Maybe someone will be there to loft up your spirits----I love dogs too-couldnt ever see myself with out one by my side
4:23 am
rubyfoo

It's really nice that restos in France allow dogs
4:24 am
puglet

does it always rain so much there
4:25 am
puglet

We got nothing like that here around me. I live in the country--going to the bigger cities I feel like a fish out of water
4:25 am
rubyfoo

Even though I grew up in NY and lived in Miami before coming here, I can't stand big cities any more. I feel nervous all the time and scared to go in the subways
4:26 am
puglet

we had two years of draught so this extra rain we have been getting is a blessing to our land and wells
4:26 am
rubyfoo

This is the first year, our 16th!, without a nice Spring. Usually, we have 5 months of perfect, warm weather. This year it has passed us by
4:27 am
puglet

I know that fear too--just so much going on with people killing and such its hard to feel safe
4:28 am
puglet

How did you end up there?
4:28 am
rubyfoo

exactly. At keast, living in the country, there's none of that to worry about. Our village has fewer than 12,000 people and the biggest town around here has fewer than 100,000
4:29 am
rubyfoo

It is a really lovely part of France and, at the time we retired, it was affordable. We are between the foothills of the Alps and Lake Annecy, all visible from the house
4:29 am
rubyfoo

if you have GoogleEarth, look up Veyrier du Lac and Annecy
4:30 am
puglet

Several years ago I had a very good girlfriend that lived in Indianapolis and I use to go there alot on my own to visit with her but I dont feel comfy doing that anymore at all
4:31 am
puglet

ohhh that sounds beautiful!
4:31 am
rubyfoo

I can understand that
4:31 am
puglet

youre so lucky to have gotten to travel like that!
4:32 am
rubyfoo

that's true and if husband would only stay cam and without the fits of temper, life would be good
4:32 am
puglet

she married and her hubby was jelous of our freindship so we have drifted apart due to that
4:32 am
rubyfoo

growing old is not fun but it's a lot better than the alternative, and i've lost many friends and cousins much too early
4:33 am
rubyfoo

that happens a lot. My first husband waas like that, he couldn't stand my having my own friends
4:33 am
puglet

could you slip him something to get you that effect? lol
4:34 am
rubyfoo

His doctor prescribed Xanax for him, but I can't figure out a way to administer it lol
4:34 am
puglet

no getting old isnt but what can we do about it?
4:35 am
puglet

too bad hes not one of your pets and just poke it down
4:36 am
rubyfoo


wrp it in cream cheese and throw it upp in the air
4:36 am
puglet

(((laughing)))
4:37 am
puglet

how long have you lived there Ruby--Have you got family there too
4:37 am
rubyfoo

I love when vets say "NP giving this to your dog. He'll like the tast." I used to have a chow, Rosie, who would take the pill and 10 minutes later you would hear it drop to the floor in nother room
4:38 am
rubyfoo

It will be 16 years in November and no, no famiy here. My son lives in Texas. I have nephews in London, but can't even go there
4:40 am
puglet

When I had horses, I had a mule I rode named Joe and he hated getting his shots and he would stiffen up his hide so that the neddle would bend ! He was the worse animal I had to give meds too--lol
4:40 am
grannyrose

ruby and puglet??? you both still here? xoxoxox
4:41 am
puglet

yeah Rose--Ruby is down --she needs hugs
4:41 am
puglet

How are you feeling Rose after your fall
4:41 am
rubyfoo

when we had out little black chow Cleo, there were two donkeys (are they the same as ules? duh me)| and a horse, who lived nearby. And she would visit them every day with lots of nuzzles exchanged
4:42 am
grannyrose

aww, ruby...{{{hugs and kisses}}}} my dearest friend
4:42 am
rubyfoo

{{rose}} my naming Rosie must have evoiked your presence. I've been whing to puglet
4:43 am
grannyrose

puglet, much better. am going back to seated duties only next monday, for a week.
4:43 am
puglet

they are about the same--Mules are bigger mostly
4:43 am
grannyrose

ruby, my darling, you don't whinge, never have, never will.
4:43 am
rubyfoo

which ones are sterile? Please pardon my ignorance' you can take the city out of a girl, but it's hard to insert the country!
4:44 am
puglet

No I dont take it as whiney either!
4:45 am
puglet

Mules--they are the product of crossing a jack(donkey) with a horse and the offsprings are sterile
4:46 am
rubyfoo

OK, so these were donkeys, and when a baby was born, the farmer-boy brought the baby over in his arms for us to see, shortly after the birth
4:46 am
puglet

are you up to that Rose? And did you really rest?
4:46 am
rubyfoo

Rose is my heroinem puglet, she is Wonder Woman personified!
4:47 am
puglet

ahh--in a few towns away is some people that raises the mini donkeys and horses and they are so sweet
4:48 am
puglet

We could all use a bit of Rose's strength--huh?
4:48 am
rubyfoo

happily for Rose, she has a wonderful husband!
4:49 am
grannyrose

awww, ruby.*hangs head in embarrassment* i only do what i can do, hun.
4:49 am

4:49 am

4:50 am
rubyfoo

and now I'm off to my solitary lunch; I won't give husband the satisfaction of my not going. And I'll have an extra grappa just to spite him!
4:50 am

Yesterday I went to my great nephews last school day program(hes 7 and like my grandson--have been apart of his life since he was in the womb) Then he came home with me for a few days.

Yep--dont know how they are doing it. But it is dangerous to the lungs
5:39 am

something about mixing alcohol and dry ice and smoking it

anything, apart from the air we breathe, is dangerous to our lungs.

They are the only hot dogs I buy because their ingredients and they are kosher.

the secret is to add some brown sugar

Rarely were we allowed anything with sugar in it. Apple Jacks did show up eventually though.

well,if you add brown sugar ,after you have finished a bowl or 3,you will still be nice and alert to go on a tear
11:40 am

I don't really eat cereal now. Just oatmeal. I love Golden Grahams, but... to fattening.

our childhood cerial was corn flakes,rice krispies and that gawd awful rice puff stuff that came in the big bag
11:40 am

that's because your mom thought you were sweet enough Judi >>> :D
11:41 am
rururocks

we had lots of sugar around our house.. my mom had a big time sweet tooth
11:41 am

i think it was a conspiracy by the parents because if you have a bowl full of those puff rice things,you can only get a ounce or two of milk in the bowl before the things are falling all over the table
11:42 am

we had a lot of shredded wheat, rasin bran, and muffets... and in the cooler weather red river, oatmeal (gruel) and cream of wheat....my grandpa used to buy me captain crunch, which i loved :)

4:35 pm
crosshair

suze,you like all things celestial wise.came across some interesting information on a russian space exploration program carried out from the mid 60,s to the mid 70,s called the "venera" programme.seems they were the only ones to land probes on venus and after many failures managed with one probe to operate it for 56 minutes and capture the only pics ever taken of the venutian landscape.seems it is 350f to 450 f there and the amosphere and pressure is like being 5000 feet below sea level.i found it all quite facinating and was a very good read
4:37 pm
uusue2

actually it is closer to 1000F, crossy (700C) - Venus is hotter than Mercury! The atmospheric pressure is 90x what it is on Earth, and there are clouds of sulfuric acid. I've seen the pictures taken by the Venera landers - very interesting although I certainly do not want to go there! (I would, however, love to go to Mars)
4:37 pm
Buttonman

Buttonman

sorry,
4:38 pm
crosshair

poor gusy,seems they spent all that money and 99% of the time the lens caps would not come off the units for recording
4:38 pm
uusue2

you can spell that backwards and get another grid word, buttonman :-)
4:38 pm
uusue2

Venus is a terrible environment to try to work in - it is amazing that they were able to get the thing to work at all!
4:41 pm
crosshair

it was indeed! seem the units # 9 and upwards including #10 which lasted the 56 minutes were incredibly overbuilt just to last this long
4:43 pm
crosshair

i was just randomly roaming through wikpedia and came across the venera programme and one thing lead to another and before you know it ,i had been reading up on it all for an hour lol

4:51 pm

i've mainly been getting library books on the kindle, but not having to go to the library to get them makes a world of difference
4:52 pm

my nook is open format so i can get tons off books of the net

cross if you are still on what do you mean your nook has open format do you get books free
5:44 pm
MollyL

Open format = you can get books from a variety of sources. Proprietary format = you can only get books from one source...such as Kindle with Amazon.
5:46 pm
MimiCat

Hello, all...back to torture myself more with this grid. {{soeed}}

ok I will go back and read my directions I like my nook to read at night in bed because I can have all the lights off and be very comfortable reading

5:57 pm

99% of librarys use epub files.that is the main thing to remember,speedfreak and epubs use 50% less space than pdf files although pdf files are superior for text books and illitrated articles
5:57 pm

Audio books are indeed a blessing for the visually impaired or those who have lost their sight.

My best friend of 44 years has a mother who has retinitis pigmentosa and is suffering...cannot even see what is on TV most of the time even though she has a magnifier. She is 84. Such a hardship. My friend even has to change channels for her to listen to TV since she can't see well enough to change channels on the remote. Time to be grateful for what we have, right? I see you are doing that, crossy. You are lucky to have each other. I will be alone the rest of my life....my choice, I guess.
6:00 pm

we had to give away all her printed books,sadly but with her reader she is happy again

my mom is 86 and can just make out some figures on tv still but sitting right up to it we also got her a large screen but even that is getting to be a struggle she still lives alone and my brother and sisters all do what we can but am so scared she may not be able to stay in her house of 70 yrs and she said then she wants to just die
6:04 pm
MimiCat

Oh, dear, speed. I understand her pain even though I don't experience it directly. I am very independent and the worst thing for me would be to need to live assisted. My children would just put me in a home and forget me....frightening. Would end it before that ever happened. But I have at least 20 more productive years and am working toward my degree as a therapist to help people with the time I have left....hey, we should help each other, right?
6:04 pm
crosshair

Sometimes we get what we deserve in this life...but often we don't. The trick is trying to not be bitter and move on with love.
6:09 pm
MimiCat

I have been very fortunate in many ways in this life so I try to concentrate on that and be grateful rather than lament what I cannot change.
6:10 pm

I am also very lucky to have an awesome brother and super sisters since we all work together to do all we can for our mom I hear such horror stories of family and it is so sad
6:10 pm

In the background right now I have a special dedicated to Leonard Cohen's works...beautiful beyond belief.

I used to sing much Judy as well as Linda Ronstadt...still hoping to get back to it someday. Until 3 yrs. ago was still singing with a classic rock band....hey, why not?!! The heart attack slowed me down but hasn't stopped me!
6:16 pm
MimiCat

Do you have Netflix, speed? They have great concerts you can stream....have one of Judy and also Joni Mitchell and Joan Baez...also, Earth, Wind and Fire, Moody Blues...the list goes on and on.

Everything Netflix streams (TV shows, movies, concerts, etc.) is just $8 a month and with Roku you have it via Wi Fi on your TV.
6:26 pm
crosshair

here is a review for it.. http://reviews.cnet.com/roku-3/
6:26 pm
herinfernallady

I wish we had it here.
6:26 pm
MimiCat

So incredibly easy to set up...they send it to you and you only have to plug into outlet and your TV. Hey, if I can do it easily, anyone can!
6:26 pm
herinfernallady

We don't nor can't afford cable.
6:26 pm
MimiCat

Poor lady....
6:27 pm
herinfernallady

Not really MImi. We have a terrabyte drive that is by the tv loaded with tv and movies.
6:27 pm
MimiCat

Good....want you to be happy!
6:28 pm
crosshair

nope.i am not missing cable at all .so much to stream from the net and once my netflix is online,i will be a happy crossy
6:28 pm
MimiCat

Netlix is expanding worldwide, so will be available soon in many places. Called for rubyfoo awhile back.
6:29 pm
herinfernallady

Thanks Mimi. We have a lot of great free to air stuff but a serious lack of current up to date stuff.
6:29 pm
MimiCat

Yes, crossy, you will be. The Roku just makes it available on your TV instead of the small computer screen. Has a remote, too.
6:29 pm
speedfreak

ok not to sound stupid I am on the site now but want to know can you still watch your local stations with it also
6:30 pm
MimiCat

You cannot get real-time programming, speed. You must go to the network sites for that (e.g., ABC.com, etc.). But entire seasons of good shows are available and they are adding more all the time.
6:31 pm
MimiCat

I have all 7 seasons of West Wing and so many others that I can watch at will without commercials.
6:31 pm
speedfreak

ok because I still like to catch the local news so can I still pick up ABC, NBC for that
6:31 pm
herinfernallady

Speed I wonder if it is like the internet straight to your tv
6:32 pm
herinfernallady

So you have the streamer and then your antenna
6:32 pm
MimiCat

You can access documentaries, concerts, movies, TV shows (including classics). So well worth it.
6:33 pm
speedfreak

might be nice when I get my own place for my tv and just keep a small one for local stuff
6:33 pm
MimiCat

No, you only have access to the shows Netflix and others have purchased the rights to. Must use direct websites for local news. I can stream my local news on internet live.
6:34 pm
crosshair

i do that now.i just stream my local statio as needed
6:34 pm
speedfreak

like I said the first thing I should do when I am on my own is take a computer course at the local high school I do not know much about them
6:35 pm
MimiCat

The great thing is that you can do marathons of shows back-to-back. Have done so with West Wing and CSI Miami and Highlander...etc.
6:35 pm
herinfernallady

I wish we had Netflix
6:36 pm
MimiCat

Speed, I have never taken a computer course in my life...just learned by doing. I am here to help you and hope you will be on your own soon.......
6:36 pm
MimiCat

Hey, lady, you have bubble and squeak! So do I...local fish and chips place....love it.
6:37 pm

music is universal:))
7:04 pm
crosshair

here,thay raised the retirement from 65 to 67 and if you take the early date you lose 4k a year
7:05 pm
MimiCat

Yes, music feeds the soul. I cannot do anything much when I have music on in the background....struggling to keep my chat going right now.
7:06 pm
MimiCat

The thing here is, you take early retirement but the amount is the same...just spread out over a longer period, thus less per month. We aren't really losing money.
7:06 pm
crosshair

assuming you live long enough
7:07 pm
herinfernallady

Gram is turning 90 in a couple of weeks. She is so excited about her party

7:26 pm

no sue, I got an interview. We'll see how it goes. I know what to do, and now I just need to gather the materials -- the things I used to have, of course, are gone. So starting tomorrow I have work to do!
9:56 pm
jmcnrick

my calendar says it is the dance of the planets but i have no clue what that is
9:56 pm

Ah, well, interview is good!!

interview is good!

Three planets are relatively close in the sky at the moment, jmc

no to mention where?

Jupiter and Mercury
9:57 pm

so low in the sky
9:57 pm
stidmama

yes, the first I have ever been asked to go to. Hoping it will be the last I go to for a while. But that may be overly wishful thinking.
9:58 pm
jmcnrick

mercury never gets very high as i recall
9:58 pm
uusue2

right, as it is quite close to the sun
9:58 pm
jmcnrick

think of it as an opportunity to learn how to interview stid. . .
9:59 pm
jmcnrick

remember to have some idea about their school and what makes it different as well as some questions. . .
9:59 pm
jmcnrick

i hate to interview people who have no clue about my organizations. . .
10:00 pm
stidmama

have already done that research, jmc! :-D I have taught there many times, and know the district's positive qualities as well as things that I will have to "accept" until I have an opportunity to make a difference.
10:01 pm
jmcnrick

then you are way ahead already!!
10:01 pm
uusue2

ah, having already taught there gives you a big leg up!
10:01 pm
stidmama

I know the age, the curriculum. I don't know the interviewers personally, but I do know that being myself is the best way to get a job in a place that will value me and my "style" and personality.
10:01 pm
jmcnrick

dress slightly better than you would for work. . .
10:01 pm
jmcnrick

then be yourself as you say. . .
10:02 pm
stidmama

I also have been thinking about how I would answer questions about discipline, my "dream class" to teach (what would you teach if you had the chance and no limits), my philosophy of teaching... LOL
10:02 pm
jmcnrick

. . . and where you want to be in 5 (10) years. . . .
10:03 pm
stidmama

Ballgowns aren't appropriate, jmc! *grin* I will wear dress pants and a blouse as I do when I teach.
10:03 pm
stidmama

I want to be teaching in 30 years! LOL I can honestly say, "I want to be in a classroom, enjoying the opportunity to work with children as they learn..."
10:03 pm
jmcnrick

that is a great answer stiddie
10:04 pm
stidmama

I don't have any scarves to wear, but I do have some jewelry that has been cleaned, so I might have a necklace.
10:04 pm
jmcnrick

how about *now that i have had a taste of it, i can honestly say. . . *
10:04 pm
jmcnrick

yes. . . just a tad nicer to show respect. . .
10:05 pm
stidmama

I like that intro
10:05 pm
stidmama

I will also go get new dress shoes. I used to have such a lovely pair for interviewing, but haven't replaced those yet. We'll see. Might mean a quick trip up to Tacoma to get to a store with a good selection.
10:06 pm
jmcnrick

nice shoes are a plus. . .
10:06 pm
jmcnrick

and i know i don't have to worry about you wearing perfume!
10:06 pm
stidmama

And if I get the right pair I would be able to teach in them on "fancy" occasions!
10:06 pm
jmcnrick

good idea stiddie. . .
10:07 pm
stidmama

Oh, no perfume. The solid ones I used to have are gone, of course. And the custom in this area is to wear very little scent because so many people have trouble with it.
10:07 pm
stidmama

And no makeup, of course.
10:07 pm
stidmama

Might dye my hair... do you think hot pink would be too shocking? *innocent mama look*
10:08 pm
jmcnrick

i would go with blue. . . that seems to be the color of choice in Washington State. . .;-)
10:08 pm
jmcnrick

if you have grey, dying it is a good idea. . .
10:08 pm
uusue2

ha, my son asked me once (when he was in high school) what I would do if he dyed his hair pink. I told him it was his hair and I didn't care. He never dyed it.
10:09 pm
stidmama

blue might work... I have "just enough" gray -- without it I look late 20s early 30s from a distance. Unless I use my cane, which at the moment isn't necessary.
10:09 pm
jmcnrick

my son dyed his with jello for the jr prom. . .he wore blue and his date wore pink
10:09 pm
jmcnrick

but the nice thing about jello is that it washes out
10:09 pm
stidmama

All of the women my age in those schools wear funky hair and lots of clanky jewelry and makeup. *yuck face*
10:10 pm
gemini_J13

that actually sounds like fun! I have been thinking what would pink, blue , red look like ......
10:10 pm
jmcnrick

a little makeup maybe but you are right about not a lot. . .
10:10 pm
stidmama

I am thinking I might actually try jello hair this summer, have always wanted to. I think with so many awful changes, a fun change would be in order.
10:10 pm
stidmama

AND it might help the workers on our house find me in the back yard while I am working on my own projects.
10:10 pm
jmcnrick

If my hair were lighter i might go for lime green in the spring!
10:11 pm
stidmama

I can't wear makeup, jmc -- for the same reason I don't wear perfume.
10:11 pm
stidmama

lime green could work for you, jmc... *assesses possibilities*
10:11 pm
jmcnrick

they were very cute in the pictures. . .he wore all black except for a white tie. . .
10:11 pm
jmcnrick

ah well then no makeup it is. . .
10:11 pm
stidmama

I bet that was a lot of fun!
10:12 pm
stidmama

also, since I never wear makeup, my skin really does have natural color. ;-) no fear of looking pale or ill.
10:12 pm
uusue2

well, I hadn't thought of it that way - now that my hair is white I could make it any color I want!
10:13 pm
jmcnrick

think of the excitement at the council me**ings! haha
10:13 pm
stidmama

oooh! I think a lovely blue would be nice for you, sue! or you could do the school colors -- red and black, is it?
10:13 pm
uusue2

Red and black indeed. Or I could go with light blue for Mount Holyoke, or a brighter blue for Yale...
10:14 pm
jmcnrick

i could have done blue and white for my school graduation! *sigh* another missed opportunity
10:15 pm
stidmama

true.
10:15 pm
jmcnrick

what color have you decided on gemini?
10:15 pm
stidmama

gemini could do all of the colors...
10:15 pm
gemini_J13

Pink,,,, is what I was thinking???
10:15 pm
gemini_J13

my hair is salt and pepper now...
10:16 pm
gemini_J13

so would it be pink and pepper?
10:16 pm
jmcnrick

that would be nice. . . very feminine and cheery! haha
10:16 pm
gemini_J13

does it only color the gray/white?
10:17 pm
stidmama

ah, pink! I love pink...
10:17 pm
jmcnrick

well it probably colors the dark hair too but it doesn't show as much. . . my boy had light brown hair and it was pretty blue
10:17 pm
gemini_J13

well my choices right now are Strawberry, Orange, lemon or lime....
10:18 pm
jmcnrick

yum!
10:18 pm
jmcnrick

but i think yellow is probably not a good choice
10:18 pm
jmcnrick

orange could be cute especially if you are a UT alum!
10:19 pm
gemini_J13

that's what's in the pantry,,, no ,, I am a summer/winter... never wear browns, yellows, oranges....
10:19 pm
uusue2

then either strawberry or lime!
10:19 pm
jmcnrick

well that leaves strawberry and lime
10:19 pm
jmcnrick

snap
10:19 pm
stidmama

there are some very good yellows for the "cool season" people though -- clear, bright and happy.
10:20 pm
gemini_J13

any special directions... just mix it and apply like shampoo?
10:20 pm
jmcnrick

oddly i always wore brown and orange until i read that book . . .
10:20 pm
gemini_J13

yes,,, I have a couple... love them,,, but not my best color
10:20 pm
jmcnrick

lord sorry gemini. . .my boy is 27 now. . . that was 10 years ago!
10:20 pm
stidmama

I wear what makes me happy -- usually the colors you like to see are the ones that look good on you.
10:20 pm
gemini_J13

so did I,,, was always buying those colors,, then now liking them when I got them home
10:21 pm
gemini_J13

true
10:21 pm
jmcnrick

i suspect you use it like a rinse and don't rinse it out
10:21 pm
jmcnrick

i liked them well enough. . . but now almost everything i own is black!
10:21 pm
gemini_J13

and,,, style your hair ... because it won't move after the jello dries?
10:21 pm
jmcnrick

with an occasional pink, teal or red blouse. . .

gemini_J13

lol
10:23 pm
stidmama

I am supposedly a spring, but I look really good in black! Usually I put "jewel tones" with it so they pop. I like browns and blues, too -- but it's hard to get those to "match" from year to year. Black is relatively stable as a dye.
10:23 pm
uusue2

so how do you know what season you are?
10:23 pm
stidmama

I could dye my hair black... and go "goth" to the interview! LOL
10:23 pm
gemini_J13

I had to get "color analyzed" a couple of times before I got the correct season
10:24 pm
gemini_J13

oh,, a book,,,, Color me a Season,,, well there were several books,,, that is one
10:24 pm
uusue2

hmmm, maybe it is in the library...
10:24 pm
jmcnrick

i think a goth teacher only works for jr high
10:25 pm
stidmama

oh, it's a matter of looking at what clothes you get compliments on how well you look when you wear them, analyzing them for the hue and tone (yellow/gold vs. blue/silver -- the former indicate spring/fall and the latter summer/winter)
10:25 pm
gemini_J13

probably Sue... look under color analysis....
10:25 pm
jmcnrick

i forgot the name of the book. . . but i am a winter
10:25 pm
jmcnrick

i am sure it is in the library
10:25 pm
stidmama

and the more delicate colors in those categories would be spring and summer and the more emphatic colors are fall/winter.
10:25 pm
jmcnrick

it came out about the same time as dress for success
10:26 pm
gemini_J13

the one I likes,,, divided people into 12 ~~ 3 for each season,,,, I was a summer 3,,, almost a winter
10:26 pm

It works really well for some people, but in the end, if you wear what makes you happy -- and what people think makes you look good -- then you are fine. I remember going to stores with color swatches in my purse. Kept several even up to now, but they were in the house so now I don't have them any more.

10:28 pm

i had this all black dress that zipped up the front with an invisible zipper and a little white lace standing color that i made in high school that i thought was the most sophisticated dress ever!
