Just popped in for a moment. Wanted to say hi and bye. ((Liz)) Hugs all around.

Hi Mimi - read about your new job. Hope it's going ok.

and cooee from me

Look forward to hearing about it Mimi.
1:10 am

Thanks, flosey. It's a waterfall in Iceland with an Aurora in the sky.
1:10 am
Lizlin

Hey Rose - how's the knee today?
1:10 am
MimiCat

((rose))
1:10 am
jillibus

hi granny
1:10 am
Lizlin

Would love to go to Iceland but reckon that now I live downunder, there's not too much chance of it!
1:10 am
grannyrose

hey mimi, what's this about a new job, hun?
1:10 am
grannyrose

hello dear jilli
1:11 am
grannyrose

liz, thanx for asking, knee seems to improve everyday. only ached a little overnight.
1:11 am
MimiCat

Yes, rose, I finally got a job doing radiology transcription (which is what I've done the past 30 years) part-time at home. Hopefully, my financial crisis is over.
1:12 am
grannyrose

oh, wow, mimi. what a perfect job. how good is that!?!
1:12 am
jillibus

two of our library stalwarts are holidaying in Iceland right now. She is of that heritage.
1:12 am
Lizlin

That's so good to hear Rose - and you've not had the brace on for that long yet!
1:12 am
Lizlin

sounds excellent Mimi - hope it works out really well.
1:12 am
jillibus

good news for both of you!
1:13 am
grannyrose

just shows to go you, liz. all it needed was the correct treatment.
1:13 am
MimiCat

The down side is that the main dr. I must transcribe is the worst I've ever heard in 30 years. But I'll just consider it a challenge and dig in! At least I won't have to ride the bus in 106 degree heat!
1:13 am
Lizlin

Sounds so weird but Old Icelandic was a unit of study for me when i was at uni - not that I learnt to speak any icelandic but it was fun reading the sagas!
1:13 am
grannyrose

and with all your experience, i'm sure you are going to be just fine and dandy.
1:14 am
MimiCat

One of my best friends is a tenured prof in astrophysics and he went to Iceland for a conference. Said it was absolutely beautiful.
1:14 am
Lizlin

I'm also sure it'll be fine and you'll get used to that doctor's speech.
1:15 am
Lizlin

Friends of mine have been there - jealous!
1:15 am
Lizlin

They also had a great time and their photos were beautiful.
1:15 am
jillibus

It seems to be quite a popular destination now -- one of our bridge pals went there too.
1:15 am
MimiCat

Am making sure I'll have plenty of vodka for the end of the day, rose, to relax after the tension of having to concentrate so intensely. The group of drs. she works for has already lost 3 other transcription services because they didn't want to transcribe her!
1:15 am
grannyrose

hey mimi, at least you don't have to decipher the chicken's scrawl i have to do. i swear the doctors take lessons in how to confound a nurse.
1:16 am
Lizlin

You'd think she'd realise something was not quite right then!
1:16 am
Lizlin

Doctors and children! Now what can we learn from that???
1:16 am
MimiCat

Apparently, this dr. is totally clueless. They've tried talking to her but to no avail. Seems counterproductive to dictate that badly when you want your reports to be accurate.

and the anaesthetists have lessons in how many different ways can you tangle cables, iv lines, arteial lines, drain tubes and catheters.
1:17 am
Lizlin

And is it your job to untangle the lines?
1:17 am
MimiCat

If I could work with her directly I could probably influence her, but I won't have any direct contact.
1:18 am
Lizlin

You can only do your best Mimi and I'm sure you will.
1:18 am
MimiCat

Doctors AND children? Many times doctors ARE children!
1:18 am
grannyrose

you know mimi, maybe spend a few hours with her at the clinic, pick up on her accent and the way she says things, it might help if you are used to her voice when it comes to transcribing her notes.
1:18 am
Lizlin

My thoughts!
1:19 am
Lizlin

I was thinking about deciphering kid's writing!
1:19 am
MimiCat

I had another job offer that I almost took but it would require riding two buses and standing on my feet for 6 hours on the days I worked. I'm just not up to that at this point. Still having heart symptoms.
1:19 am
grannyrose

lol, liz, only if we want the iv's to run, and the catheters to drain...
1:19 am
Lizlin

You look after yourself. This job sounds much more suitable.'
1:20 am
Lizlin

Which I guess you do or certainly the patient does!
1:20 am
MimiCat

I can't, rose. She's in Colorado. The owner of the service I'll be working for knows how bad she is and actually asked me to listen to her before accepting the job so I'd know what I as getting into!
1:20 am
ursh

hello all - please could i have the stats for the middle D - I have typed deduct 10 times at least
1:21 am
grannyrose

oh, so true, mimi...we have some newly graduated surgeons working , and i look at them and think, who is this child? they are younger than 2 of my sons...
1:21 am

1:22 am

what nationality is she, mimi?
1:22 am
Lizlin

WTG Jilli - I'm also missing that corner t and the bottom a! Still, 3 short of 100 so not doing too badly!
1:22 am
MimiCat

The lady who hired me (the owner of the service) seems really cool. She has already said she's happy to have me and is sure I'll be a valuable asset to the company. I like praise!
1:22 am
Lizlin

We all do better with praise!
1:23 am
grannyrose

1:23 am
MimiCat

She's American, rose. I've transcribed drs. from all over the world, working in teaching hospitals, and none of them were as bad as this woman. Her problem is she talks unnaturally fast. She's like some sort of alien chipmunk!
1:23 am
grannyrose

ae6/7 combo
1:23 am
Lizlin

Found the ae combo - thanks
1:24 am
grannyrose

lol....i wonder if you can slow the recording down a touch.
1:24 am
Lizlin

Love the description, Mimi - lol - perhaps not for you, though!
1:25 am
MimiCat

I can and will. Keeping everything crossed that I'll be able to do it (which makes it difficult to type, see, and walk)!
1:25 am
grannyrose

now there's a thought. load her 'notes' onto the computer and digitally slow her down. i'm sure it can be done.
1:25 am
Lizlin

And babble!
1:26 am
grannyrose

*giggle* but good bladder control, mimi
1:26 am
MimiCat

My boss has already sent me all kinds of reports that she does so I can see the wording and phrasing. The good thing is she only dictates mammograms, pelvic and abdominal ultrasounds. She works for a women's clinic.
1:26 am
MimiCat

LOL, rose!
1:27 am
Lizlin

The reports must be a great help and once you know her phrasing and the technical vocal, it'll get easier.
1:28 am
Lizlin

vocab = that should've said but i guess you already do if you've done this job for 30 years!
1:28 am
MimiCat

Another transcriptionist has been training on her reports for TWO MONTHS already and still can't do them without the boss looking them over. I'm VERY good but she will be a challenge.
1:29 am
MimiCat

With normal drs. who transcribe reasonably well my accuracy rate is 99% and I can do over 100 reports in a day easily. Have a feeling those stats will plummet with this one!
1:31 am
Lizlin

There's the challenge!
1:31 am
MimiCat

Thanks for the support, everyone. Going to bed and finish watching a movie. See you later. Hugs all around and poof!

Fun, bichon!
9:47 am
bichon

Ouray, CO, we met a couple from Ouray while we were hiking in England
9:47 am
MimiCat

OMG, bichon...I'm so envious my teeth are hurting. Make sure you visit Nepenthe. It's a combo art gallery/souvenir shop/restaurant. It is the house Orson Welles bought for Rita Hayworth and has the most magnificant view right on a cliff.
9:48 am
Scrabbler

I want shalf my ashes spread at Thirteenth Lake in the Adirondack Mtns, and the other half at the park near my house. My favorite places.
9:48 am
bichon

I don't think we're going to have any time on a one nighter
9:49 am
MimiCat

You should really try to make time....it's totally worth it. Big Sur is relatively compact so it wouldn't take long to see it.
9:49 am
westford

ooh Nepenthe
9:49 am
MimiCat

Where are you camping?
9:50 am
MimiCat

You know Nepenthe, westford?
9:50 am
westford

yes but didn't now Orson Welles bought it
9:50 am

It was his love nest with Rita Hayworth...I think when they were first married.
9:52 am
MimiCat

I'm like a little travel guide for the U.S. I've driven in/been to every state in the contiguous U.S. except far New England...only got to Boston.

9:58 am
MimiCat

The 3 bad months of summer are the price we pay for living here the rest of the year when it's wonderful weather. We only have 2 seasons in Phoenix...heaven and hell.
9:59 am

in New England if you don't like the weather, wait a minute
10:00 am
MimiCat

My third child was born the beginning of August....was pregnant all summer and with two other small children...not fun.
10:00 am
MimiCat

In Phoenix if you don't like the weather, just grin and bear it because it won't change for a VERY long time!
10:01 am
MimiCat

I can't even remember the last time we had rain...and I ADORE thunderstorms. So I'm not happy about the weather most of the time.

they sure are.
11:56 am

what does the 9 begin with?
11:56 am

The last concert I had crappy seats for was Elton John. I almost feel like a liar saying I "saw" him in concert. More like a multi-colored dot on the stage.

Bonnie Raitt is A-list in my book.
12:00 pm

12:03 pm

Oops. Just remembered another one. One concert we went to had a ton of artists. Stray Cats and Willy Nelson were two that I recall. A lot of other country bands that I ignored.

Here is the question for this morning, What is the best show you've ever seen?
12:04 pm

12:09 pm
rururocks

He's one of the very greatest guitarists in the world
12:09 pm
Judi

Yeah, Clapton is outrageously talented. Any of his live stuff is magic to the ears.
12:10 pm
MollyL

Or the DVD, duh
12:10 pm

Yeah but there so many guitar heroes. I'd love to see Tom Morello play

12:23 pm
Judi

Sigh. The Firefly Music Fest is going on right this very minute in Dover, Delaware. A scant 30 miles away from us. Alas, we are not hip enough.
12:23 pm
MollyL

I love the version of "Put A Little Love In Your Heart" that Al Green and Annie Lennox do at the end of "Scrooged"
12:23 pm

12:25 pm
rururocks

oh
12:25 pm
onyx

Ticket prices are so high and i am so short, all i ever see is the back of the person in front of me, cuz everyone stands, that's why i prefer smaller venues
12:26 pm
rururocks

I saw Lewis Black last year for my birthday
12:26 pm
Dorens

she did a recording of west side story with placido domingo and jose carreras with bernstein conducting them. fabulous
12:26 pm
MollyL

Don't like Tom Petty, don't like The Red Hot Chili Peppers and can't stand The Lumineers. The rest are all alias bands.
12:26 pm

we have a great small theater in Napa called the Uptown
12:26 pm

the years are ramming together now for me these days
12:28 pm

12:29 pm
rururocks

*signs Judi up for AARP magazine*
12:29 pm
Dorens

Judi, sorry, but 49 is still young now.. talk to us in ten years (if we remember who you are, or who we are, by then)
12:29 pm
Judi

Gaaah! No AARP. Evil! Evil!
12:29 pm

12:30 pm
MollyL

Eh...DC...Baltimore...you were close
12:31 pm
Dorens

David's the librarian.
in other news... Rachel and her boyfriend bought a house together last Monday (at least their offer was accepted, and the house inspection came out well). Then he broke up with her Friday night. Not good
12:31 pm
rururocks

oh jesus
12:31 pm
Judi

Oh no, Dorens! That's terrible. Sounds like somebody got a major case of cold feet.
12:32 pm
Dorens

Judi, I actually quit AARP, it seems like all they want to do is sell me insurance which I don't want. They are so obnoxious
12:32 pm
rururocks

*wonders how in the hell westie got to 31
12:32 pm
Dorens

yeah, and I'm not allowed to ask her questions. ( I did however get to ask her if it's okay to be royally pissed off at him) we'll talk later I'm sure. She's moving back to Brooklyn next week
12:32 pm
Judi

I think I've convinced hubby to sign up with AMAC, Dorens.
12:33 pm
Dorens

what's AMAC? (asks the woefully ignorant doren)
12:33 pm
Judi

Better yet, we could win the lottery and tell all the blood-sucking retirement lobbyists to F-off.
12:34 pm
rururocks

AMerican Association of (old) Codgers
12:34 pm
Judi

Like AARP, only for conservatives. Google and read up.
12:35 pm
rururocks

wouldn't that be AMAGB?
12:35 pm
Dorens

oh gosh, if it's for conservatives it isn't for me. will read up someday soon, right now i need to go outside and clean the patio furniture (having friend for dinner) and then have to toodle on down to the lake and kayak. later, all
12:35 pm
MollyL

Don't say conservative in here Judi, you will get things thrown at you.
12:35 pm
Judi

Not quite, ruru. HA HA. I think it's Association of Mature American Conservatives.
12:36 pm
Judi

I know, Molls. That's okay. Since liberals have all of my money anyway, they can throw that at me.
12:36 pm
Dorens

no molly i don't think so. we are all allowed our own political beliefs, and I think we're all mature enough to be able to deal with each other's differneces
12:36 pm

it's a pretty nasty reference anyway.. I'm off to eat with friends and watch Inspector Lewis. Thundering here. Tried to call my MLPs cousins to see how they were doing with the rain but no answer--
5:41 pm

I don't know who jesse is. I do know who's last icon he's using though. And I've told ruru that I'd chatted with NB for many years too.
5:42 pm

Round Barn, we've had over 5 inches total here in 3 different storms
5:42 pm
Nef

we've had no damage (to us) but too many people have power outages.
5:42 pm

Nef, Jesse was the supposed real name of Nancy Boy. Nancy Boy was a fake person here. He never existed. He was made up by nasty people who posted here.
5:43 pm
RoundBarn

lots of talk on it in chat--we had ours last week--
5:45 pm
Nef

But was he always fake Molly? He turned pro back in 2007; that's an awful long time for a trick fake person
5:46 pm
Dorens

people tend to trust on this place... why would you think i'm not who i say I am?
5:46 pm
Nef

I'm so glad we had our trees cut down (due to disease or dead limbs) over the past few years.
5:46 pm
MollyL

Always fake. All the pictures are of a Japanese actor, Jun Matsumoto. And that is not the only fake person posting here.
5:47 pm
Nef

LOL, Dorens. Maybe I'm just that gullible I guess. I really tend to believe people here (but not necessarily on some other sites)
5:48 pm
penquis

well, everyone uses a nickname and an avatar...i don't feel fake, but penquis is not my name... ;o)
5:48 pm
Dorens

i think we all do, nef. There was just something about him that didn't ring true. For a kid his age to talk the way he did--- that made me suspicious
5:48 pm
Nef

But Molly, my icon isn't me; and I'd never think that cross or ruru or tor or others actually looked like who they are.
5:49 pm
penquis

it's the internet...public access....bound to pick up some weirdos at times....claiming to be someone they are not, trying to impress, etc....
5:49 pm
MollyL

That is not the point Nef. Anyone can use any icon they want. Anyone can tell any tall tales they want. Claim to be anyone they say they are.
5:50 pm
Dorens

yes pen, and it is also sickies... The person pretending to be Jessie seemed a lot like the person calling himself JC. And he was not a picture of mental health
5:51 pm
torgone

But I really am a puppet robot with a toy gumball machine for a head ..
5:51 pm
MollyL

Dorens nailed it...sickies...and...not the picture of mental health.
5:51 pm
Nef

Well, I never did believe JC. (Still can't figure out this Jessie though..
5:52 pm
penquis

i am a psychologist by trade (really)....i run across a lot of people i have doubts about...guess I tend to be a sKeptic anyway....
5:52 pm
Dorens

of course you are
5:52 pm
MollyL

Nef, how can you say that you chatted with Nancy Boy and never knew that his supposed real name was Jessie? I don't understand.
5:53 pm
Dorens

i wish i weren't as skeptical as I am, but I am
and Molly, maybe she has forgotten? I've sure forgotten more important things than that in the last few years
5:54 pm
Nef

Because back when he started here he never called himself anything but NB. It was only later that he said he was Jessie. I never wrapped my mind around that
5:57 pm
Nef

I joined here in 2005; in 2007 (when NB finally joined) I was recuperating from 2 foot surgeries and we chatted a lot back then.
5:58 pm
Nef

(I was pretty addicted to Babble at that time)
6:00 pm
MollyL

Nef, you don't seem to want to believe that the person who called himself Nancy Boy was fake. If that is what you need to do, so be it. But he wasn't real. He was the fabrication of a sick person's mind.
6:03 pm
rururocks

I have this bridge for sale you might want to take a look at Nef.. when you have time :D
6:03 pm
Nef

I guess I hate to think that I'm that bad a judge of character. :-(
6:04 pm
rururocks

you weren't the only one Nef.. I was fooled for a long time too
6:04 pm
rururocks

then things started to change
6:04 pm
MollyL

We all do Nef. I fell for Nancy Boy just like the rest of the group did. It's not on you, it's on the sick person who fabricated the fake poster.
6:05 pm
rururocks

I think about all the $$ Dr G is making off all these created personalities :D
6:06 pm
Nef

we've talked before about this ruru; I told you that I thought there was a change in his personality somewhere along the line. Do you ever wonder if he was real (initially) and then someone took over his person here?
6:06 pm
rururocks

nope
6:07 pm
Nef

Well, I hope he's making $$ off them instead of someone stealing someone else's identity (and not paying to play!
6:07 pm
MollyL

Neither do I.
6:07 pm
rururocks

I think once JC was more or less banished from the kingdom.... he started lashing out as Nancy Boy
6:08 pm
MollyL

Every time Ru puts that icon up, he gets the reaction "take it down, I don't want to be reminded of that". Plenty of people here are embarrassed about how they were fooled by Nancy Boy.
6:09 pm
rururocks

I've become a HUGE Jun Masimoto fan of late :D
6:09 pm
Dorens

I'm not embarassed by having been fooled. I just don't really like remembering the evil that was perpetrated. And Nef, believing what someone puts in the chat log and being fooled does not make you a bad judge of character. You can't judge character in someone you've never met, can you?
6:10 pm
MollyL

It's as simple as this. I could log out of here right now, go find a picture of Angelina Jolie, pay 15 more bucks and log back in as Angelina Jolie.
6:11 pm
Dorens

exactly, and who would do that but an evil sick person?
6:12 pm
Dorens

hey ru is the fox benefit tonight?

Yes Dorens, especially here where people are (for the most part) very nice and caring. The Nancy Boy hoax was an exploitation of that. Which is why I found it so disgusting.

Dorens

yup molly, i found it disgusting as well. and that's why i don't like the reminder. I had tried to tell a few people back when he was "alive" that I thought he was JC and they found the idea repulsive, but seemed to be offended by my suggestion, rather than look at it and believe it. Nice people, intelligent people, being fooled. Not a happy remembrance

6:43 pm
72 Temple Owl

i was just so surprised. have only seen him once since, and talked about the weather. he used to help out but that will be over soon.
6:43 pm
Nef

I *might* go IF 1) I wasn't married; 2) I had my own tent and sleeping bag; 3) he's a nice person (though maybe my judgement is questionable); 4) it's at a state park and not somewhere very isolated; 5) there are others going too; and 6) I had a can of pepper spray along.
6:43 pm
72 Temple Owl

oh, good, sue
6:43 pm

well TO guess he wants to not bother with the prelim and go right for it how often do you even talk to this guy

before I was married I had some guy friends and we'd camp and hie etc. even in the wilderness. I was always very straight up with them and I had my own tent and sleeping bag. I didn't have pepper spray though; (I guess I've always trusted people....
6:49 pm

6:50 pm
72 Temple Owl

nef, there is no reason to accept this invitation no matter what the intent. none whatsoever.
6:50 pm
Nef

then don't. If you have no reason to accept it; why even consider it?
6:51 pm

I do a lot of stuff with guy friends. I don't have to ask what the rules are, because we all know already.

6:55 pm
Nef

Before we were married, a guy friend was getting out of the Air Force and travelling through Minneapolis on his way home. I invited him to stay a day or 2 with me to see the Twin Cities; and I was dating DH at the time. He was jealous (but he never told me tip later!) that some other guy was staying at my place; but he came over after L. got here and he took us to Dinky Town (on the U of MN campus); and then dropped L and me off and said Good Night and left. He knew that we wer just friends and there wouldn't be anything else once he met L. and saw us together.
6:55 pm
MollyL

You fix my door, I make you dinner to repay the kindness. Where does sex figure into that?
6:55 pm
72 Temple Owl

well sorry to bore you all, i think i will go get a short walk then dessert.
6:56 pm

Happy to see you singing again, Molly :)
7:00 pm

7:02 pm
Nef

I goofed
7:03 pm
Lizlin

Yay Molly. Keep on singing! Wish everyone did!
7:05 pm
Nef

TO, Dinkytown has been called that since at least the 1940's and there are many possible reasons for it (I looked on Wikipedia). It's a great place that is different from any other neighborhood here
7:06 pm
Nef

(BTW, Molly, Funky Town waswritten here in MPLS; but didn't get played on the radio here for a long time because the radio stations thought it was "too black" for Minnesotans!

By the way Nef, when "Play That Funky Music White Boy" came out, racial tension was so bad in Boston that the song played "Play that funky music...boy".

when china beach was on, dana delany was mine
7:12 pm
Nef

Molly, the other thing about the Twin Cities in 1980 (when Funky Town was a hit) was that I believe there were more inter-racial marriages here than any other mid-sized city in the US (I want to say "any" US city; but I can't find that in a quick search)
7:12 pm
MollyL

Dana Delaney has been in "Body Of Proof" lately.
7:13 pm
72 Temple Owl

yes, we but we have rown apart over the years :)
7:14 pm
MollyL

Dana wore some wicked shoes in that show.
7:15 pm
Nef

I've ever seen China Beach and so many other show from that era. Working eves and nights (with young kids) I rarely saw any popular TV shows back then
7:16 pm
72 Temple Owl

okey dokey, break time. bbl
7:17 pm

I wonder how many of those shows would be on Netflix; and which ones would be even fun to watch these days?
7:18 pm

Michael Douglas was cute....Karl Malden not so much....
7:22 pm

Michael Douglas...I can't go there...not after what he just said about how he got throat cancer.

7:22 pm
rururocks

how did he get throat cancer?
7:23 pm
penquis

i hear ya...
7:23 pm
rururocks

smoking?
7:23 pm
MollyL

He claimed it was from oral sex.
7:25 pm
72 Temple Owl

hpv, which causes cervical cancer as well
7:26 pm
Nef

I would imagine it would be a cause of it
7:27 pm
rururocks

wow
7:27 pm
Nef

(or I should say: a "possible cause")
7:27 pm
Cathyar

Hi all...Molly, I think he later clarified his intended comments indicated that oral sex COULD cause it...it is not the ONLY cause.
7:27 pm
rururocks

<--now worried about cancer
7:28 pm
Cathyar

perhaps he should also have mentioned that drinking, smoking, frig, even breathing toxic air can also cause it.
7:28 pm
speedfreak

just watched Michael douglas and Matt Damon in the story about Liberace I do not know even acting how they could kiss and have sex scenes like they did
7:29 pm
MollyL

Hey, I didn't say he was right. I just mentioned what he said.
7:30 pm
72 Temple Owl

i don't know if there is evidence for this or just anecdotal evidence
7:30 pm
Cathyar

No, but he did not specify that oral sex was the cause of his throat cancer...he merely indicated that it is one of the causes.
7:30 pm
Nef

I was at a friend's houseparty last evening and one of the women there had tongue cancer and had part of the left side of her tongue removed about 6 months ago. Her mother sent her a box of pistachios; and she ended up with the same white spot on the right side of her tongue. Her oncologist thinks she has a type of cancer caused by an allergy to nuts! (She will be having this patch removed this next week).

7:35 pm

You're right, Cathyar; there are many different things that cause cancer; but just remember that the overall percentages of cancers in the world population is decreasing (although you wouldn't know it by the media)
7:36 pm

it was great, Cathy! There were just 10 of us there (plus the facilitators) and we had a most amazing time.

Nothing better to help heal the soul and the body than quiet relaxation and positive healing...I watched a show last night about the power we really have over our bodies by convincing our brains to help us heal....it was mostly about mental health, but it also touched on how our thoughts can heal our bodies.

8:32 pm

I understand Montana weather now jilly
8:32 pm
uusue2

the crystal bowls are played kind of like Tibetan singing bowls (or like the edges of wine glasses); they make a pleasant and rather musical sound
8:33 pm
MollyL

Crystal bowl music is not for everyone, but it's very soothing.
8:33 pm
Jillyjill

LOL ruru, yup....just wait 5 minutes and it'll change..
8:34 pm

8:35 pm

da 6/24?
8:36 pm
rururocks

whatever is a de-stressor is a good thing
8:36 pm
MollyL

Healing from crystals is not "magic" it's about vibration. Again, it's not for everyone. Especially people who don't believe in it.
8:36 pm
rururocks

da 6 is a plural
8:36 pm
uusue2

plural of da5/14, penquis
8:37 pm

If you lived next to Marin Molly ... you wouldn't say that
8:37 pm

some people say weemees vibrate ... but it's not for everyone either :D
8:38 pm
Jillyjill

back
8:39 pm
uusue2

well, these crystal bowls were in fact vibrating (that's how they make sound), and did so quite pleasantly. After playing the woman sang, and that was quite pleasant as well.
8:39 pm
uusue2

fireworks!
8:40 pm
MollyL

The second da5/14 and da6/24 are not a combo. That was my answer to your question Pen.

I've been outside putting some patio blocks in where our fire pit will go. I guess my hole I dug was a bit too deep; now I have to go buy some sand to fill it so the patio blocks are even with the ground level. :-(

my older sister always wore White Shoulders or Shalimar perfume; I loved Emeraulde but it smelled like rusty tin cans on me. I really never got in to perfumes because I couldn't wear anything to work (especially if it smelled like rusty tin cans!)
