1:59 am
puglet

Yes and so sad all them firemen lost their lives
1:59 am
jillibus

horrible about the 19 elite firefighters succumbing!
2:00 am
moonwoof

Agreed. If it's what my uncle suggested tho, there really wasnt much anyone could do, and still fight the fire
2:00 am
moonwoof

The forensics arent back yet, but the most likely cause was the tempuratures combined with wind speeds
2:01 am

2:01 am
puglet

I really feel for them and all the people that has lost everything as well

2:15 am

hi zooz :) How did the trunk sale visit go?
3:48 am
zoozzoom

Not much worth having i'm afraid.
3:48 am
sprite

aw :(
3:49 am
zoozzoom

And someone left their handbrake off their car when they parked..it rolled down and just missed my parents and slammed into another parked car...i was ot ammused to say the least..lol
3:50 am
zoozzoom

not*
3:50 am
rbud

wow!
3:50 am
sprite

omg... what an ass. And what a scare. I can imagine you being angry. Are your parents ok? Not too shocked?
3:51 am
zoozzoom

After i gave the lady i right telling about how careless she was..she started crying..then i felt really bad..but i was so annoyed at that moment.
3:52 am
zoozzoom

They were shocked..but they are fine now..i kept thinking if it was two inches the wrong side one of them would of been trapped with broken legs.
3:53 am
sprite

well, I think you were right to be angry. She didn't do it on purpose, but as I tell my kids, sometimes it is important to do it RIGHT on purpose. In other words, to pay attention. It might have ended in a much greater drama.
3:53 am
zoozzoom

I agree, Sprite..she will remember next time that for sure.
3:54 am
sprite

{{{{{{{{zooz}}}}}}}}}
Sounds like there was a busload of little angels protecting your parents, zooz.
3:54 am
zoozzoom

I still felt bad after though..i really hate upsetting people..lol
3:54 am
zoozzoom

Hahaha..how strange..that is exactly what i said to my parents!
3:55 am
sprite

yeah, I know the feeling. Just remember you were right to be angry, and the lady will recover from the shock and be more careful next time. Can't go through life without upsetting some people :)
3:56 am
sprite

lol, that is funny.
3:56 am

why mazel tov? judi
7:57 am
Judi

Why not?
7:58 am
Anniebrook

I was wondering what good luck has befallen us today
7:58 am
Anniebrook

are you using mazel tov as a greeting, then mazel tov to you too
8:00 am
Judi

Yes, a greeting. Or, if you prefer: Good morning.
8:00 am
Anniebrook

LOL
8:01 am
Anniebrook

any greeting is a good greeting
8:02 am
Judi

I realize it's more of a cheerful exclamation, but...the mood struck me.
8:03 am
Anniebrook

may you always be struck with cheerful exclamations! mazel tov!
8:04 am

The Fonz is here today
8:05 am

Ugh. I hate small grids.

I agree, Annie.
8:07 am
Judi

Tony Danza is almost here too.
8:08 am
Anniebrook

now Im looking for other sitcom names
8:12 am
Anniebrook

I feel terrible about the 19 firefighters that lost their lives in AR---
8:13 am
Judi

Unspeakable tragedy, Annie. Amazing the risk that some will take to save property.
8:13 am
Anniebrook

I found Dion and the Belmonts
8:13 am
mael

I can't even think about it, annie
8:14 am
mael

dino should absolutely be a word
8:14 am

I just cant imagine someone putting themselves in such terrible harms way. Police do the same.
8:14 am
Judi

Hello, mael!
8:14 am
mael

hi judi! how are you? :)
8:15 am
Anniebrook

Hi mael
8:15 am
Judi

I'm good, mael! And you?
8:16 am
mael

good, been very busy with work and surviving the damp heat here in Boston
8:16 am
Judi

Wildfires are a way of mother nature. That's why people have insurance. I think such huge fires should be fought from the air. Humans are no match for such things.
8:17 am
Anniebrook

I agree, Judi
8:17 am
Judi

It's like throwing virgins into the volcano. Pointless.
8:18 am
mael

I agree, Judi. Those fires go where they want to go, and while I do feel terrible for those who live in fear for their homes, this was not done to save lives. It feels like such a horribly rash decision
8:19 am
Judi

Firefighters exists to save lives and property. However, there needs to be a line drawn so that firefighters lives are not needlessly endangered.
8:21 am
MimiCat

Morning, all. Wildfires are our natural disasters instead of tornados, hurricanes, etc. They happen every year to one degree or another. It is terrible when they do and so difficult on the firefighters having to battle that in this unbelievable heat. A friend of mine knew one of them who was killed. He has a wife and four children...so very sad.
8:23 am
Anniebrook

Mimi, how are you handling the high temps?
8:23 am
Judi

Another word that should be accepted: Daddio. You dig?
8:25 am
Scrabbler

Good day to all.

MimiCat

((Annie)) Just staying inside. My a/c went out for just a bit yesterday but, fortunately, the apt. maintenance guys took care of it right away and it was a quick fix. Since I'm working at home I don't really need to go out into the heat and am having my groceries delivered on Thurs. We set a record for the hottest June in history.

Anyone have a clue for the Tu7?
8:27 am
Scrabbler

Riverdance, I just got a Subaru Crosstrek and someone told me you might do the same. I would recommend it!
8:28 am
Judi

YAY! Scrabbs bit the bullet and bought a new car! Good for you, Scrabbs!
8:28 am

I got mine Saturday, kept in safe in the garage til yesterday, and it is safe in garage again.
8:30 am

What color did you get? Mine is black. My nephew calls it a badass car.
8:30 am
Scrabbler

TY, o-o
8:30 am
Riverdance

I just went to look at what was available and drove home with a new car....I got the desert khaki
8:30 am
Judi

I think you should get a little bunny hood ornament for it, Scrabbs. Now that would be badass.
8:31 am
Scrabbler

Hahaha, Judi. I have to buy a new set of deer whistles before a deer ruins my new car.
8:31 am
Riverdance

I love the blue tooth feature for my cell phone. Never have to search for my phone again while driving
8:31 am
Scrabbler

River, I am stunned that we got the same car 2 days apart!
8:32 am
Riverdance

I had a forester and was going to look at them but they made them so big now. I dont need a big truck like that and the gas mileage wasn't great. This is the perfect size and I do love Subaru
8:32 am
Scrabbler

The fuel efficiency of the Crosstrek clinched the purchase for me. Otherwise I was going to get another Forester.
8:33 am
Riverdance

that is funny that we both had foresters too
8:33 am
Scrabbler

We must be long-lost sisters!
8:33 am
Riverdance

I only got 25 mpg on my forester. This new car is showing 33-34 mpg
8:33 am

Riverdance

hello hego
8:34 am
Scrabbler

I didn't get that deal, River. The dealership never offers that.
8:35 am
hego

Very good luck to both of you.
8:35 am
Riverdance

there is a battle between dealerships going on here so I think this is an added incentive for them to win the most cars sold for the year
8:36 am
Riverdance

thanks hego - I am very excited. This is the very first brand new car I have purchased on my own.
8:36 am
mael

hi hego and all :)

Anniebrook

name that proper noun...actor Henry
8:36 am
hego

Hi Mael
8:37 am
Scrabbler

I have never been so emotional and serious about a car purchase as I am with this one. I think because I understand the value of hard-earned money, AND it is the first car I bought without my father doing all of the research and wheeling and dealing. THAT was so hard for me.
8:37 am
hego

fonda
8:37 am

8:37 am
Judi

Fireworks!
8:38 am
Riverdance

I understand. I have never been able to make a decision with my ex having to make them all. We have similar issues so this is a first for me without a man sitting in the seat wheeling and dealing too!
8:38 am
hego

WTG! Judi!
8:38 am
Anniebrook

YAY for Judi!!!!
8:38 am
Riverdance

8:38 am

Well, I don't know how to say all of this in Italian: Itching like crazy from a poison ivy rash which began last Thursday.
8:38 am
Scrabbler

Yahoo Judi!
8:39 am
hego

Oh poor Scrabs, I hate poison ivy. :(
8:39 am
Judi

Anyone need clues before I toddle off to balance the checkbook?
8:39 am
Scrabbler

((Riverdance)) We were subconsciously and telepathically helping each other through the car-buying purchase!!
8:40 am
Anniebrook

I am so lucky I am not allergic to it - can walk through it, sit in it and nothing. My neighbor gets it so bad every year - I feel for her and she is a nurse so is very hard for her to work like that

Me too River.
8:53 am

Not yet, River. I am not as bad as the total body rash I had 5 yrs ago. That was my first experience with a poison ivy rash and I vowed to never get it again. Yes, I mountain bike in the woods. Grrr. I must be REALLY cautious.

We will, most likely, go to CT in August and stay with Liz and family for a week. They have joined a country club so they have a great pool and Bobby loves to golf. Im sure my sil will take him out on the course.

11:54 am
rubyfoo

we have one weed that exactly resembles roses but without the flowers [[ same leaves, same thorns and very vigorous
11:55 am
rubyfoo

it is too cold in the morning because that part of the garden is shady
11:55 am
TraderKate

i've never heaard of a flowerless rose....
11:55 am
rubyfoo

it's a weed whose name I don't know
11:56 am
rubyfoo

we also have nettles, lisseron and others [[ they threaten to take over
11:56 am

rubyfoo

happily, the flowers are wonderful this year and the hydrangeas are ready to pop, just in time for a houseguest this weekend
11:58 am
TraderKate

more than once, i have grabbed a handful of stinging nettles during weeding because i was focused on the plant i was trying to weed around and not looking at what i was pulling.... <dingbat>
11:58 am
rubyfoo

11:59 am
rubyfoo

12:00 pm
TraderKate

12:00 pm
rubyfoo

I'm always afraid that the puppy will bite one as she goes after most of the plants
12:00 pm
TraderKate

Trader - do you have Dock plants there? They usually grow close to nettles. use the leaves to rub over the nettle stings and it should reduce the pain.

12:12 pm

Which means I have to break it in. Do you know how hard it is to put a really BIG recliner back to zero when your legs don't reach the ground???

6 organges, 3 lemons, sliced, 3 sticks cinnamon, 2 Tbs whole cloves, all in a pot with about 5 qts of water. Boil for 10 mins,then med-high simmer til it gels. Add about 1.5 Tbs ground cardamom after about 2h. Very simple. Stir it often, and time the full boil carefully.

90s and no humidity is okay with me as long as I don't have to work outside... but of course the garden is outside... so 80s is better for me usually.
