Hi Sprite :)
1:40 am

hiya Liz :)
1:40 am
Lizlin

If there's a 900 + grid, count me out!!
1:41 am
sprite

depends on the day... if I have time that day, I will do it. And enjoy it.
1:41 am
Lizlin

I really don't have the time for larger grids - 200 is about my maximum!
1:42 am
Lizlin

But these really small ones are becoming a bit too common!
1:42 am
sprite

I loved doing the 700+ one. But yes, it does take a lot of time.
1:43 am
Lizlin

It's funny because it's not as though I work but what with walks and the gym and other stuff, the day is soon filled!
1:43 am
Lizlin

I loved the 500 + one a couple of weeks ago.
1:44 am
sprite

Liz, those are way healthier things than sitting behind the 'puter :)
I don't get out much, so I do have the time.
1:45 am
Lizlin

True - I never realised what an outdoors person I was until I moved here - don't like spending too much time at the computer.
1:45 am
Lizlin

But if you're stuck indoors for whatever reason, the large grids are fun.
1:45 am
sprite

on a good day, I go and walk the dog and spend some time in the garden. On a bad day, I am lucky to make it downstairs. And on those days I am grateful for my puter
1:46 am
sprite

yes, large grids have their own charm, that is for sure. And the really big ones make for great chat as well.
1:46 am
Lizlin

I can understand that - I hope that the good days come more frequently :)

Got to go - back soon :)

1:56 am
rbud

we are nearly done with our conversion of our old bedroom to our new living room. Almost ready for paint, and then the baseboards and trim. Then carpet. I hope. (the old man's fretting about the money, but he'll get over it.)
1:57 am
sprite

oh wow! Sounds wonderful. You'll love it when you can sleep and... do other stuff there!
1:58 am

I have a pretty new front door where a window used to be - ready for a new porch out there, going to love that!
1:59 am

oh yes!
1:59 am

2:00 am

fireflies too. Quick, but fun.
2:01 am

Hoping to be out there rocking in a nice rocker on my porch by the end of summer. Or fall. But first the new kitchen, yay!!
2:02 am
sprite

sounds like your home will be even more wonderful now, rbud!
2:04 am
rbud

I hope so. Trying to get it all set up for Hubs, he's not getting around so well. It may come to a wheelchair inside soon, so we are doing what we can to make sure we don't have to re-do anything later.
2:04 am
sprite

am sorry to hear that. But great that you can make the home wheelchair-proof now.
2:05 am
sprite

must be off... have a lovely day, rbud!
2:06 am

For now I plan to have some handrails put in here and there, it will help for a while.

I am off the rest of the week and my sister will meet me at Hemlock Lake for a day of paddling. But she is driving from Orillia, Ontario and must battle traffic around Toronto and then the international bridge.
9:23 am
crosshair

ugh at driving over the border.is she taking tons of our money with her from rama??
9:23 am
Scrabbler

I know she won $300 her first night. I don't know about last night.
9:24 am
crosshair

stay away from the slot machine and play blackjack:)
9:25 am
Scrabbler

She likes videopoker but does play blackjack. I went to a casino with her in the past but I don't get the desire to be a "gamer" and toss my hard-earned money away. She calls it entertainment. I call it stupidity.
9:26 am
crosshair

lol,you know you are a lost cause when you you have finished the grid and still every once in a while you catch yourself looking for words that are no longer there:)
9:26 am
Scrabbler

Silly boy!
9:26 am
crosshair

as long as you treat it like spending money on lottery tickets,it is fine.make a budget,leave the plastic at home and plan on losing it all and just have fun and hit the buffet
9:27 am
Scrabbler

She sets a limit and plays slowly and carefully. She likes the strategy. I remind her that the house is the net winner.
9:28 am
Scrabbler

Clue for far right S?
9:28 am
crosshair

the house always wins and they let just a few win to 'tease the geese"
9:28 am
Scrabbler

Yep
9:28 am

a old job for a secratary she would use a st*** machine
9:29 am
Scrabbler

TY!
9:29 am
crosshair

np:)
9:30 am
crosshair

but ,as i say,if you treat it like a night out at the movies or betting on the horses,just plan on losing what you take and if you make money consider it a bonus
9:31 am
crosshair

we went once.the budget was 200 each.i left all my plastic at home and the car had a full tank of gas.we got the free buffet and in the last 5 minutes of our trip we broke even by winning it all back on one pull on a slot machine by the door
9:31 am
crosshair

spent 4 hours there,so was fun
9:32 am
Scrabbler

I think about the books or outdoor gear I could buy with that lost money.
9:32 am
crosshair

lol,i am now to the poin that i have 30 books sitting waiting for me
9:34 am
crosshair

i do not like going to the movies because my sciatica(sp) gets so bad i can hardly move sitting in those d**m chairs for 2 1/2 hours,i play 3 dollars on the lottery a week so what the heck
9:34 am
Scrabbler

Me too. So many books to read and not enough time, especially because new books come out and get added to my list. ALAS!
9:34 am

9:35 am

I haven't read as much as usual in the last several months--trouble concentrating. Grief, I guess.

9:36 am

i understand that,scrabby.been a tough year for losing loved ones here as well
9:37 am
crosshair

we are still grinding though the procedural nonsense of the will and my beloveds mum passed plast sept and her brother in march
9:39 am
Scrabbler

Yes, you have had many losses. It is such a change, such an adjustment. Still doesn't seem real.
9:39 am
crosshair

her brother was a massive shock.he had a stroke then when they were running st scans etc on him they found stage 4 cancer that had metastisized like crazy,then he went home for a month or 2,had a second stroke and he was dead at 51.the cancer did not even have time to make itself felt
9:39 am
crosshair

ct
9:40 am
crosshair

lung cancer*
9:41 am
Scrabbler

Any unexpected death is a shock, a stunner, so much more difficult to deal with. And with a young person it hurts even more.
9:42 am
crosshair

yes.with her mum,we knew it was coming.on o2 last 2 years massive weight loss.lungs just failed the ciggarettes killed her basically
9:42 am
crosshair

and smoking right till the end
9:43 am
Scrabbler

And to witness someone suffer is brutal too. Aging, illness, suffering, death--nothing easy about any of it!
9:43 am

her da was 2 years earlier,same way.death by smoking
9:43 am

Grief is challenging for all of us, is unavoidable for us, takes time, requires support, and sadly too many people deal with it in unhealthy ways--drugs, alcohol...
9:45 am

Hi Nef
9:46 am
Nef

It's important to take the time to grieve and celebrate your loved ones. I still grieve the loss of DH's Aunt Jean; but I also try to remember all of the good times too.
9:49 am
Scrabbler

Time is the key word.
9:50 am

Scrabs, did you ever read and of Helen Kubler Ross? She was so good at explaining the grief process
9:50 am
Nef

(sorry. that should be "any of)
9:53 am
Nef

The only time inmy whole work life I didn't go to work when I should have was the night I went to hear her lecture (I'd copied my hours wrong so was sure I was off that night)
9:53 am
Nef

(I messed up my hours occasionally by going in to work on my nights off!)
9:57 am
Scrabbler

I have read her stuff. Elisabeth Kubler-Ross. CS Lewis wrote a wonderful book too.
9:57 am
Nef

Oh? What is the title?
10:00 am

Short essays and thoughts which so aptly describe grief.

It will be okay if it doesn't, actually. I feel as if having a job lined up before the new year would mean that I have to focus on teaching instead of focusing on getting the rest of my life back to normal. Hopefully they can begin demolition of the old house in another week or so, and then there will be a lot of things for me to do with the construction. I already bought a new hammer! :-)

12:55 pm

12:56 pm
stidmama

zoom, I don't know if you like gardening, but I will share my excitement over my little cherry tree being LOADED with green fruit the last time I was at the house! For years it has barely managed to stay alive, and then last year it grew a bit and this year when it bloomed ... it was gorgeous. All three branches. (for a ten-year old tree that's somewhat pathetic)
12:57 pm
zoozzoom

How about the pets side of things..or are you going to give it more time?
12:57 pm
jmcnrick

you may be jumping the gun stid. . . these things go slow in my experience. . .did you see my suggestion about the picture?
12:57 pm
zoozzoom

I have a cherry tree too...got lots of bloom this year!
12:58 pm
stidmama

I am so very sad about my Lucky boy and the birds, zoom -- will probably have pets again, but in this little apartment, and before I have a fenced yard (if I'd had fenced yard to begin with, Lucky would still be alive)...
12:59 pm
stidmama

:-) YAY for cherries! I might even get enough for a small cherry pie if I can keep the crows off the tree.
12:59 pm

12:59 pm
stidmama

Yes, jmc, I did see your suggestion. But I think Mother also has the artist's contact info somewhere. Still, when I go north this summer I will see what I can do.
1:00 pm
stidmama

thanks, zoom
1:01 pm
stidmama

It was such a lovely, bright picture of a madrona trunk and branch. the colors were exquisite, and it was a fairly low print number (100-something out of a run of 500).
1:01 pm
stidmama

thing is, the artist was also the owner/cook at this little restaurant where I KNEW I could get food that was safe to eat! They had such excellent pakoras...
1:02 pm
stidmama

"upness" is so a wurd! "Is Grant up yet? No, his upness level is still pretty low."

sorry, hi bichon :)
.. and PMS :))
wandered away to try to delete a zillion e-mails that had piled up
2:59 pm
bichon

The floor in this B&B is uneven. Every time I get up, I tilt. It's a really old cottage
3:04 pm
TraderKate

isn't there a nursery rhyme about a crooked old woman who lived in a crooked house with a crooked cat etc. ?? is that where you are?
3:04 pm
TraderKate

is the weather still holding for you?
3:05 pm
bichon

Exactly Kate. I think even the bed is tilted. Weather has stayed perfect. For three days before we came it was pouring
3:06 pm
TraderKate

i had seen that in your posts bichon, pitied the ones on before you taht endured days of rain...what is a "knot garden"?
3:07 pm
TraderKate

smiling as i picture you careening around the room as if on the deck of a ship ;)
3:07 pm
bichon

It's small hedging, like boxwood, grown in mazes. There are plantings in the centing
3:07 pm
bichon

Not far from the truth. The toilet seat won't stay up.
3:08 pm
bichon

3:09 pm
stidmama

hey all -- bichon, there is an old hotel in Hood River, Oregon, that is like that. I whacked my foot once when we stayed there because I lost my balance just standing!
3:09 pm
TraderKate

sounds very quaint, charming even... i love old, draughty, and creaky places :)
3:09 pm
TraderKate

hi stiddie :)
3:10 pm
bichon

Very charming. I will miss going home and leaving this all behind
3:10 pm
bichon

hi stid
3:10 pm
bichon

I just think of Anne Hathaway serving us tea
3:11 pm
stidmama

"chipping camden?" what are they chipping? I live in an area with a lot of forestry, so I think about little left-over bit from falling trees...
3:12 pm
bichon

I don't think it means that in olde English. I think it means market area
3:12 pm
stidmama

cotswold -- sounds like an austen or trollope novel location!
3:13 pm
bichon

Austen, probably. Also Tolkien country. Think Shire
3:13 pm
stidmama

oh! LOL I am looking at a sat-map online now. It certainly has the lines of an ancient European settlement.
3:13 pm
bichon

wold = woods on a hilltop
3:14 pm
bichon

The people are so friendly. We stopped in a church this morning to have a look. Folks were just finishing a mid-week service. They offered us tea and biscuits and gave us a tour of the church
3:14 pm
stidmama

wow. it's an amazing little place. I think there must be a lot of amazing little places in Europe...
3:15 pm
stidmama

how nice! Mother and Dad had similar experiences the time they visited England.
3:15 pm
bichon

This trip has been a dream come true
3:15 pm
stidmama

oooh. down to three, and they are all 4 and 5 letter words now...
3:17 pm
stidmama

so glad you have been able to go, bichon -- arts and crafts is my "style" -- or could easily be. I like simpler lines and real wood and such. But I don't think I would like the interior lighting if I were to be authentic. In a tour of the Greene house (a greene house?) in Pasadena, the guide said they were afraid a wattage of more than 15 would burn people's eyes!
3:17 pm
stidmama

two... :-)
3:18 pm
stidmama

I also really like extra ornamentation, the way the arts and crafts tapestries and windows look.

9:14 pm
Lizlin

Fireworks - thought that'd take longer. couldn't see them last night!
9:14 pm

9:14 pm
welki

9:15 pm

9:20 pm
welki

why thank you, ru. we think we did good, too. don't know what we'd do if baxter were to die before murray (the border collie). murry is so attached to him, he freaks out if they're separated, even for a few hours
9:20 pm
rururocks

I saw Hagen Daz win the National.. he was a really great dog

9:38 pm
welki

9:38 pm
rururocks

hmmm
9:39 pm
rururocks

he's show material for sure
9:39 pm
welki

and then, when he was a year old, we took care of the temptation permanently
9:39 pm
rururocks

I neutered Dylan too
9:39 pm
rururocks

Too many hormones
9:40 pm
welki

i'm glad we took her advice and waited until he was older - she was so right
9:40 pm
welki

he filled out perfectly
9:40 pm
welki

even if he is a bonehead :)
9:40 pm
rururocks

I would have waited tilll 18 months or two years
9:41 pm
rururocks

9:41 pm
welki

9:41 pm
rururocks

9:41 pm
welki

9:42 pm
rururocks

Dylan is far from Perfect.. but I love him all the same
9:43 pm
welki

9:43 pm
rururocks
