2:00 am
rbud

you run a taxi service, pug? :)
2:01 am
puglet

lol-no I have 3 elderly person that I take to places they need to go
2:01 am
puglet

well I guess I might be a taxi like service-lol
2:02 am
rbud

I actually did own a taxi business for over five years, decided I ran everyone I knew around most days, so I might as well go official and get paid for it! :D
2:03 am
rbud

but it wore me out, finally, whew...
2:04 am
puglet

Guess that it wouldnt be much different then driving a truck or anything else
2:05 am
rbud

I loved the independent old babes the most, they didn't want to have to call their kids or other relatives for a ride, and they had great stories to tell.
2:06 am
puglet

Ive always enjoyed older ones too
2:09 am
puglet

even when I was young I always enjoyed the stories from my grandparents and their friends
2:10 am
rbud

I bought the business from a fellow who apparently drove like a maniac, it took me a time or two with each older lady before they relaxed and quit clutching the armrests and seat backs while we were moving, then they'd comment on how relaxing it was to ride with me, compared to "the other guy", lol!
2:10 am
grannyrose

checking in, to say hello. have heard from son, finally. brax has been through another battery of tests(son wasn't exp;icit as to what th4 were for), but a few apparently serious things have been ruled out. brax has been losing weight, now. hospital is trying to establish a feeding schedule for him, in the hopes he will begin putting weight back on.
2:11 am
puglet

I bet you were a blessing to them
2:12 am
puglet

Hi Rose--I was worried about his weight earlier
2:12 am
rbud

oh, dear, rose, hope they get his troubles ironed out, poor little guy has been through a lot. (((hugs)))
2:12 am
puglet

So what now? And hows your vacation going
2:14 am
grannyrose

pugs, am home again, arrived a few hours ago. have unpacked almost everything. and i guess, we wait...son hopes, with some cynicism i might add, that th4 will bring brax home this weekend.
2:15 am
puglet

did they stop the bleeding or clotting
2:16 am
puglet

I hope so! I bet your daughter-in-law is just worn out as well as your son
2:17 am
grannyrose

pugs, have only had an email from son. going to give him another 2 hours, then text him on his mobile, and hopefully be able to speak to him personally.
2:20 am
puglet

Praying that all will turn out well for you all. Sorry that you had all this on your plate as you and yours was trying to enjoy a few days away from home--hugs to you Rose
2:20 am
grannyrose

it's so frustrating...i want the latest news, and yet i don't want to cramp the kids with constant calls. th4 have so much to deal with.
2:20 am
puglet

Yeah I know what you mean there
2:21 am
grannyrose

prayers and hugs are gratefully received, pugs
2:21 am
puglet

sometimes waiting is the hardest thing to do
2:22 am
puglet

How are you feeling Rose? Is your leg giving you fits
2:24 am
grannyrose

yup, pugs. and the muscles in my back have been in spasm with all the car travel. will be glad to sleep in my own bed tonight. as you guessed, i did a fair bit of walking over the last 3 days...
2:25 am
puglet

sounds like a good rest is just what is called for here
2:25 am
grannyrose

i am supposed to be able to walk in this splint, and i did take regular rests, but it still gives me gyp.
2:26 am
puglet

I imagine that the stress back home wasent very helpful either
2:26 am
grannyrose

am gonna take it nice and easy for the next 2 days...back at work monday. :(
2:27 am
puglet

I hope you do! And I hope you can rest well too
2:29 am
puglet

did you visit any more musuems
2:32 am
grannyrose

not since last night. after breakfast we packed the car and started for home.
2:34 am
grannyrose

last night we had dinner at a tapas bar, it was a 1960's trivia night. lol. ihardly remember the '60's.
2:34 am
puglet

I hope we didnt make rbud feel ignored? we kind of left her behind here'--Glad you made it home safe and sound Rose and hope you can get rested up before monday
2:35 am
grannyrose

thanx dear friend.
2:35 am
puglet

So I take it you didnt do very well at the trivia then-lol
2:36 am
grannyrose

rbud?? you still here, hun?
2:37 am
grannyrose

um, no, pugs....we were laughing a lot, and the quiz master really had some obscure questions. we did well on films, and photos of personalities.
2:39 am
puglet

well you at least didnt have a complete failure at it-lol
2:39 am
grannyrose

another table of players were at least 10 years older than us, so th4 were in their teens in the 60's.
2:39 am
grannyrose

it was such fun...
2:40 am
puglet

It sounds like it was. Nice that you and yours could have an evening of just fun
2:42 am
puglet

Its kinda quiet here . Everyone must of had a trying week
2:45 am
grannyrose

apologies, was out of the room getting some bikkies and cheese.
2:45 am
puglet

what is bikkies
2:46 am
grannyrose

crackers...
2:46 am
rbud

I was also gone for a bit, caught up reading the last half hour now. Had to go find my kitties, they were still outside and it's supposed to start raining sometime in the wee hours.
2:47 am
grannyrose

over here we call crackers biscuits, and what is called biscuits in the US, we call scones.
2:47 am
puglet

ahh thanks
2:47 am
rbud

and hauled in my sawhorse tabletop - have been doing window trim, etc, in my soon to be "new" kitchen.
2:47 am
puglet

did you find them Rbud
2:48 am
rbud

yes, they all three came running. plus a couple of extras we feed, haha! but they live out in the carport.
2:48 am
grannyrose

so if i refer to bikkies....th4 are colloquially referring to crackers/biscuits
2:49 am
grannyrose

awww poor kitties. bet th4 were cold and hungry.
2:49 am
puglet

I like cheese and crackers with grapes too
2:49 am
rbud

one of the little abandoned tomcats has a swelled front paw he's limping on. wish I could do something for him, but he's not really ours...
2:49 am
grannyrose

hmmm, grapes!!!
2:49 am
rbud

I'm such a softie...
2:50 am
rbud

mmm, grapes! been a while since I could afford any.
2:50 am
puglet

I think grapes brings out the cheese flavor
2:50 am
puglet

yeah I am too when it comes to animals
2:51 am
grannyrose

well, grapes would clear the palate between tastes of cheese...we had a sparkling muscato with the cheese.
2:51 am
puglet

hopefully next year I will have my own
2:51 am
puglet

that sounds so good
2:52 am
grannyrose

does muscato count, instead of grapes. th4 are just been processed a little more.
2:52 am
puglet

I dont see why not
3:03 am
puglet

I got a recipe off of someones profile(dont remember whos) for a tomato soup cake. I plan of making this week-end. Have you tried it Rose or Rbud
3:04 am
grannyrose

no pugs, sounds interesting though. let me know what it's like..
3:05 am
puglet

okay will do--sounds like it might be like a spice type thing
3:06 am
rbud

jillibus's recipe, I think! I keep meaning to give it a try, too. I'm about the only one in my family who really likes tomato soup, or even fresh sliced tomatoes. hard to believe.
3:07 am
rbud

I have it in a notepad note on my desktop, along with a few dozen other recipes I'd like to eventually try.
3:07 am
puglet

I know it calls for raisins and nuts and a few spices--thats what makes me think it may be like a spice cake
3:09 am
puglet

it dosent say anything about icing so it may be more like a bread
3:10 am
rbud

oh! I have a cream cheese frosting listed along with it, so I'd wondered if it might resemble a carrot cake, perhaps.
3:10 am
puglet

I seen some other recipes on other profiles and I wish I had tooken the time to write them down cause Iam very bad at remembering--lol
3:11 am
puglet

thanks I will add that to it--It just might
3:11 am
puglet

I like carrot cake so I hope it does
3:12 am
rbud

I see it's still on jillibus's profile, too.
3:12 am
rbud

http://www.playbabble.com/profile_mini\n.php?id=24882
3:13 am
puglet

I must of over looked the icing
3:13 am
puglet

thank you Rbud
3:13 am
rbud

oops, take out the " \n " - not sure how that gets in there, babble just does it. :P
3:16 am
puglet

how much more is left on doing your new kitchen,Rbud?
3:18 am
rbud

oh, lots, really - still debating whether to build the cabinet boxes myself (with help) or try to buy them already made. Have cabinet doors and fronts that Hubby's older brother made a long time ago, from their parents' house, want to use them.
3:18 am
rbud

But we put in the new windows and ceiling in the last few days, which made a big difference already.
3:19 am
rbud

Hubby's brother was a really good professional cabinet maker back in his day.
3:20 am
puglet

thats helps on cost too. A friend of mine made my sink cabnet in our kitchen during the winter and I love it!
3:21 am
puglet

making it yourself you know just how well its put together
3:21 am
rbud

I'm just not liking what I see in ready-made cabinet boxes so far. Cheap materials, and can't afford the solid wood stuff, so... think we'll give it a try.
3:22 am
puglet

My desk here for my computer I bought at a sale last summer homemade by someone and I got it for 1 dollar
3:22 am
rbud

good score there!!
3:22 am
puglet

Iam sure you will do fine and you love it more doing it yourself
3:23 am
rbud

I agree, plus I can completely close them in, not like the old ones in the old kitchen - the mice have had their way long enough. :P
3:24 am
rbud

(there were no backs on the old ones.)
3:24 am
puglet

thats the way mine was too
3:25 am
rbud

then I think the old kitchen is getting made over into a small spare bedroom... may have to move Mom in soon. Just off the bathroom, quite handy.
3:27 am
puglet

I had a little mouse that came in during the winter that kept coming up around the burner of my stove and I felt sorry for it so I put food out every night for it.lol It never left any messes behind and when spring came it left.
3:28 am
puglet

yes--that will be handy
3:29 am
puglet

do you live in a house or a trailer
3:30 am
rbud

it's a house, very old. amazing what we've found under the sheetrock while remodeling - the walls are mostly solid wood, with a dozen layers of old wallpaper.
3:30 am
rbud

then sheetrock over that.
3:31 am
puglet

oh wow--bet that was interesting to find
3:32 am
rbud

but the wood's not nice enough to expose, it looks like old boards from railroad cars, we think. all about an inch thick, very rough, and about 1 foot by 2 feet. but I can hang a picture anywhere, lol!
3:33 am
rbud

think that's the only reason the house hasn't rattled to pieces over the years, we're pretty close to the train track.
3:33 am
puglet

I dont know, there are people that uses old barn lumber for their walls and it looks great
3:33 am
rbud

but hey, it's paid for! :D
3:33 am
puglet

does the train still run on it
3:34 am
rbud

oh, yes, we're right by a switch, and the same train will go back and forth several times, adding and subtracting cars, till it gets them the way they want them, then off they finally go.
3:34 am
puglet

my childhood home was next to tracks and I still miss the sound of the train running. But it no longer travels on those tracks
3:35 am
rbud

but after 22 years, we're used to it. plus I've always lived by a train, it seems, and Dad retired from the Rock Island Line, he was a conductor when they still had passenger cars.
3:36 am
rbud

so I'm sentimental about them, too. except when they blow the horn at 4 AM, haha!
3:36 am
puglet

My grandfather was a conductor for the b&o in Indianapolis
3:37 am
puglet

nothing like the sound of the train whistle in the quiet of the night
3:39 am
puglet

I think we've lost Rose
3:39 am
rbud

far away, yes, but right in the side yard, not so much, hahaha! but most of the engineers are nice at night, and just barely tap the horn. some are not so nice, but not often.
3:40 am
rbud

I'll bet she's tired! or maybe trying to get through to the new parents?
3:40 am
puglet

Is it close enough to rattle your house
3:40 am
puglet

Yeah I bet she is too. Shes been through alot here lately
3:41 am
rbud

yes, a bit. that's why I've never tried to put up my collections of miniature items in printer's drawer shelves, I'd probably have to gl4 them all down.
3:42 am
puglet

dont blame you there
3:43 am
rubyfoo

hello
3:43 am
puglet

(((Ruby))) hello
3:43 am
rbud

hi, ruby! :)
3:45 am
puglet

How have you been Ruby
3:46 am
rubyfoo

{{little pug}}nd {{rbud}}
3:47 am
rubyfoo

I'm sort of OK and enjoying the very hot summer weather. After our miserable spring and summer, I don't mind the heat at all, even the day it got over 100F (1st time in 15 years)
3:48 am
puglet

has it been too hot for you to do any of your gardening
3:49 am
rubyfoo

I love your mouse story, Puglet, I feel the ame way. I even rescue moths that come in the house and don't mind the mice Under our bird feeder at all. Yesterday, wild-girl Raffie killed a bird however. I guess it had been injured, but still.....I never heard of dogs doing that
3:50 am
rubyfoo

She and Rufie caught a mouse outside one day and played with it until it was dead. They're like enormous cats!
3:50 am
puglet

I got a boxer mix that will kill my chickens if she gets a chance
3:50 am
rbud

how do the dogs do when it's so hot - do you get their fur trimmed?
3:51 am
rubyfoo

they seek out the coolest places but \i don't trim them. I think they're never too hot and I put ice cubes in their water dishes
3:52 am
puglet

I have a small kiddie pool for mine and they get in it whenever they get too warm
3:53 am
puglet

I used to really work with my dogs training but I havent done so with these. So its my fault they have picked up bad habets
3:53 am
rubyfoo

they also drink from the fish pond which stay pretty cod (but icky as far as I'm concerned)
3:55 am
rbud

I saw a hint somewhere about freezing treats in a mixture of chicken or beef broth, in a big butter tub or maybe an ice cream bucket, and giving it to a dog on a very hot day. keeps them cool and busy.
3:56 am
rbud

oops, mix the broth with water, I meant to say
3:56 am
puglet

thats a good ideal--I have frozen hotdogs for them
3:56 am
rubyfoo

Raffie crunches the ice cubes but last night, inthe dark, I found her chewing on a rock. I don't think chws are the sartest pups in the pack!
3:57 am
puglet

I got to watch my pug she will do the same thing Ruby
3:57 am
rbud

hahaha! silly boy. :)
3:57 am
rubyfoo

I thought pugs were smarter than chows! hahah
3:58 am
puglet

she seems to need something in her mouth at all time
3:59 am
rbud

whew, just realized, our summer guests are finally going home today (friday) - our daughter's boyfriend's sons have been here for six weeks. back to their mom, now.
4:00 am
rubyfoo

Rafie, too
4:00 am
rbud

(daughter and her boyfriend live with us upstairs.)
4:01 am
puglet

that will make your house quiet-lol
4:01 am
rbud

the food bill will drop drastically, too, thank goodness! they eat a lot.
4:01 am
puglet

how old are they
4:02 am
rbud

they are now around 12 and 14, tough teen years. we've been "step" grandparents to then since they were 5 and 7.
4:02 am
rbud

*them
4:03 am
puglet

its nice you step in there for them--yes teenage years are tough ones
4:03 am
rbud

have no blood grandkids, yet.
4:04 am
puglet

annapooh(pug) just turned 2 last month so I hope she will soon grow out of the need to chew so much
4:04 am
rbud

they live deep in Chicago, they enjoy coming here to our tiny town, a whole different lifestyle.
4:05 am
puglet

oh I bet they do
4:06 am
rbud

takes several days for them to quit talking city slang, haha!
4:06 am
rbud

don't know, I've known small dogs that carried something around with them almost constantly all their lives.
4:06 am
puglet

they have to fly home?
4:07 am
rbud

no, it's only a couple of hours to drive.
4:08 am
puglet

is school about to start for them
4:08 am
puglet

our school begins the 7th
4:08 am
rbud

yes, and it will be a new one, hope it's as good as the last one, they seemed to be doing all right there. but their mom is moving to a different area.
4:09 am
rbud

(still deep in Chicago)
4:09 am
puglet

I hope it will be too for them--change isnt always so easy
4:10 am
rbud

I'm a little worried, but we'll see.
4:11 am
puglet

do you have contact with them through out the rest of the year
4:12 am
rbud

off and on, they come for the longer holiday breaks and such.
4:12 am
rbud

and they call our daughter and their father pretty often.
4:13 am
puglet

its so easy for kids to get into bad company
4:13 am
rbud

they used to live with their father and our daughter, but then the mom straightened up her act and got them back. she used to be quite the mess. don't know if she's really all that much better, but they say she is.
4:14 am
puglet

one of my sisters moved her teenage kids to vegas and it was really hard on them at the time. going from a small town to a huge place like that
4:15 am
puglet

got about the same problem with my little nephew
4:15 am
rbud

oh, my, that would be rough. vegas!
4:17 am
puglet

her daughter got into a lifestyle she had never been around and got into drugs and etc. But thank God she found her way out and is now doing so much better
4:19 am
rubyfoo

my keyboard just quit and I had to shut down the computer.
4:20 am
rbud

wondered where you went! :)
4:20 am
puglet

did you get it fixed
4:20 am
puglet

Ruby you have the best of luck--lol
4:21 am
rubyfoo

and it's only a couple of months old
4:22 am
rubyfoo

It is a piece of Chinese Junk (pardon the pun)
4:23 am

Hate leaving such great company but got a busy day ahead and Iam going to try to catch a couple of hours of sleep. Take care Rbud and Ruby and Rose if you are still here-You and Braxton will be in my prayers.

finally heard from son. brax has a duct in his liver narrowed, and his gall bladder has not developed fully, hence he has a touch of jaundice. his weight loss has slowed. 3 days ago he lost 90gm, 2 days ago 40gm, and in the last 24 hours, has lost a measly 10gm. if in the next 24 hours he actually puts weight on, brax will be coming home very soon.

That is a pretty amateur move, car. Most vets will have you or a tech "scruff" the cat before they start poking around.

Casu marzu means "rotten cheese" in Sardinian and is commonly known as "maggot cheese" because it actually contains live maggots. The cheese is only okay to eat if the maggots are still alive. A comforting thought, right?

Crossy... I think I speak for everyone when I say...Shut up.
10:22 am
sammysmom

CROSS, now you understand, being raised in maine and now living in an ohio city-- why i gaze longingly at the deer now roaming our back yards... a new thing for us in the last 10 years, and my friends and family are horrified ... i do miss venison
10:23 am
crosshair

mmmm,venison...
10:23 am
crosshair

lol,sorry,judi.i will shut up
10:23 am

Venison is good. Organs, blood products...YUCK>

10:24 am

weirdest thing I've eaten was raw tuna heart
10:24 am
mael

which was also delicious
10:24 am
crosshair

now that IS different
10:24 am
crosshair

i think you win the odd edible of the day mael
10:25 am
Judi

Huh. Were you on a fishing boat at the time, mael?
10:25 am
mael

I was :)
10:25 am
crosshair

either that or she was out for a swim and had a fight with a tuna
10:25 am
mael

I had just caught the tuna, too
10:25 am
mael

rather savage business, that
10:26 am
crosshair

was it like the first nations eating raw buffalo heart sort of thing?
10:26 am
Judi

Interesting. Did the heart taste anything like the tuna steak?
10:26 am
mael

it tasted like a meatier version of tuna sashimi
10:26 am
crosshair

or the swede fishermen biting the heads off kippers for luck?
10:26 am
mael

very rich taste
10:26 am

Gee, I don't know how the rest of you tolerate us handgun totin', varmint cookin', poorly insured Americans.

Ah ha. Definitely not something served here in U.S. resturants.
10:27 am

Wonder if they serve it in Japan?
10:27 am

10:30 am

mael, what did it cost to get your tuna all prepped and dressed for consumption?
10:31 am

10:33 am
mael

we didn't get any of the tuna besides the one the skipper filleted on the boat for us to eat raw
10:34 am
MollyL

Apparently Crosshair and Diane think I'm upset. They probably forget that I was married to a Canadian and I'm well aware of misguided perceptions about Americans. I used to joke with my husband about it all the time.
10:34 am
crosshair

ahh ok.was curios mael,because those things get massive
10:34 am

the 'eye' word
9:27 pm
Jacula

The eskimo home?
9:27 pm
dan2bit

as spelled by a heavy metal band?
9:28 pm
Jacula

No, as spelled by the Inuit people. Plural ends in a 't'.
9:29 pm

Well I guess that makes me the ignorant philistine :-)

Not at all. One person can't know everything!

9:31 pm

Y/w, dan2bit. I know mostly through Babble and also through loving the study of words.
9:31 pm

Something cool. Nice pun there, d2b!
9:31 pm

The great thing about Babble is that lots of people know lots of different things and, between us, we can get the grids done. :-)

9:41 pm

I thought the same after I got made redundant. It doesn't work quite how you think it will, does it? lol
9:41 pm
Jacula

More money would be nice though!
9:41 pm

indeed not!
9:42 pm
uusue2

yeah, I'm just hoping the state doesn't take away my retirement benefits, I am kind of counting on them
9:44 pm
Jacula

li7/44 - is the li5/16 verb form. Opposite of not dark. Li5.14 and li7/40 are the Scottish words for the same thing - think along the lines of 'it's a braw, bricht moonlit nicht'
9:45 pm
uusue2

9:46 pm
Jacula

I've found out that I won't get my UK pension at 60 or een 65 now. I'll be 66 - so a decade away - before I can claim it... if they haven't moved the goalposts again by then. :(
9:47 pm
uusue2

I could still get social security at 62.5 - which is in 3 months - but I will get more if I wait until I am older - have to start claiming it by 70.5 and I am hoping to be able to wait that long
9:47 pm
Jacula

ta5/12 = to tease in a nasty way. Ta7/36 is the past tense.

to6/24 and verb form to7/40 - means dressed in a roman way and follows on from the roman gown word to4/6 and Latin plural to5/14.

by4/8 = 8 computer bits. Sounds like what an angry dog might do to you.
10:07 pm
Jacula

bi5/16 - Love this word! It's the thing that looks like a toilet and, when I went to the bathroom of a schoolfriend in the late 60s and saw my first one, came home and said, 'Mum! Diane's got a bum washer in her bathroom!'

Good Evening Everyone. I haven't had much time to Babble lately; things are pretty wild now with our son and family here.

Hi Jacula! Haven't seen you for the longest time!

Okay

Hi Nef - you just caught me.

Minveryork

Hello Nef! How are you doing today? Welcome to the chog.
10:15 pm
Nef

how are you doing these days? And you too Min; I haven't seen you for a while either!
10:15 pm
Jacula

au4/5 - US word for a car. au6/24 - very dodgy verb or past tense form for that word.
10:16 pm
Nef

thanks, Jac. I haven't heard that word since my Granma was alive! :-)
10:18 pm
Jacula

I live inland in UK but we have seeagulls here now. At one time the first bird you would hear heralding the dawn was a sparrow, followed by the blackbird. Then it was the blackbird, followed by the pigeon. Nowadays, the gulls get in first. It's very disconcerting to hear gulls inland when you've always thought of them as seaside holiday sound birds.
10:19 pm
Jacula

y/w, Nef.
10:20 pm
Nef

I live about 1000 miles from any ocean and we have seagulls all the time (but then again, Minnesota has over 10,000 lakes.
10:20 pm
Jacula

ac4/8 - a bit like the breaky heart song. It is painful.
10:21 pm
Jacula

Her in UK you're never more than 30 miles from the sea, but gulls inland is a new thing within the past 4 or 5 years.
10:21 pm
Nef

Really? That's so strange....
10:22 pm
Jacula

I guess the gulls go where the easy meals are.
10:23 pm
Nef

OH! Speaking of birds; we had a bald eagle fly and circle over our house yesterday AM when I was on my way to an appointment. We only live 2 blocks from 1 lake (and have 4 others within 1-2 miles of us); but Bald Eagles usually aren't seen here in the city like that.
10:23 pm
Jacula

Gulls, ravens and jackdaws now frequent motorway cafes and then fly out to nearby places.
10:24 pm
Nef

what would be the easy meals there for them?
10:24 pm
Nef

I'll have to Google jackdaws. I've never heard of them.
10:24 pm
Jacula

Can't claim to have seen a bald eagle here! That's impressive Nef. Buzzards etc., here.

Easy meals for birds are places where food put in bins overflows or the food is on the ground.

10:27 pm

It's going -- I think. The ground is scraped down to "virgin soil" and there were some boards lying around that I think will be the forms for the cement.
10:27 pm

hi nrkii.
10:28 pm

ugh, Nef -- WHEN my house is done, you are welcome to come visit and stay... it will be fully accessible for most purposes. :-) roll-in shower and all in the master bath, so drop by ANY time.
10:29 pm
Minveryork

Hello nrkii! How are you doing today? Welcome to the grid
10:29 pm
stidmama

not that it's a bad thing you had the room for them, just that I know you'll need a vacation by then!
10:29 pm
stidmama

hey Min!
10:29 pm

Hi mama. Thought you were otherwise occupied. Rose called with cancel Monday.
10:29 pm

thanks Min... I'm good, how are you?
10:29 pm
stidmama

hello Mother -- I hope she is not unwell (again)?
10:30 pm
Jacula

So, stid - would you say the fire gave you freedom to start again or that you are doing the best you can since it happened? I ask out of interest, not any malice.
10:30 pm
Nef

Thanks, stud. If we ever get out that far I'll let you know. I have a nephew in Tacoma area, but I haven't been that far in over 40 years.
10:30 pm
stidmama

I got to the party this evening, stayed long enough for my friends to see me and used the chickens as an excuse to leave. Left Matthew, Grant will go to his friends' house tonight, and there were lots of people hanging out.

Sitting here playing babble on my work laptop, while a stranger is accessing my personal laptop remotely to try to stop the blue screen of death crap that has been going on the last 2 days. Joy.

Hi nef and everybi ody--I'm back from 2 weeks in Vermont at our little lake, my granddaughter from Paris cme and it was sonderful. Nef, Konrad Lorenz worked with/observed jackdaws.
10:31 pm
stidmama

best I can, Jacula -- I was only just feeling I really had some equilibrium after the ordeal of grad school. It's not going to be my "dream house" but it will be lovely and it will be a good place to grow old in, and watch my already-mature garden continue to develop.
10:31 pm
stidmama

oh dear, nrk -- not fun.
10:31 pm
stidmama

hey RoundBarn! sounds like a perfect time!
10:32 pm
Nef

Hi RB. I'm glad you had a nice vacation
10:32 pm
Jacula

At leat your Mum only talks to you on here and doesn't ring you up every 5 minutes to talk aout trivia, Stid. However, having already lost my Dad, I know that I must talk to her - however inconvenient it may be - because she won't always be around and, one day, I'm going to long to hear her voice.
10:32 pm
stidgmere

Rose is fine, refrigerator is on its last legs. Replacement due Monday.
10:32 pm
stidmama

I would say, nef -- that it is time to renew that family connection. (imho, of course) AND there are some absolutely lovely museums in Tacoma now, as well as lots of excellent places elsewhere to visit. We would love to have you!
10:33 pm
stidmama

Glad she is okay -- we'll reschedule, yes? I need my Scrabble fix!
10:33 pm
Jacula

Stid - I'd be like you, I think, in being glad that my garden survived.
10:33 pm
stidgmere

Looking at the following Monday. We'll talk this weekend, you and I.
10:34 pm
stidmama

LOL Jac! I love my Mother, we have such a great time together -- will post more pics from our recent trip to BC when I remember (my brain is mush these days). Glad you are there for your Mother, too -- it's a connection that is so important.
10:34 pm
Nef

Aww, Jac. I'm sorry that you feel you must endure constant phone calls about nothing. My Mom dies when I was 8; so definitely cherish the calls.

LOL, hurshy! I was wondering how much sushi a person could eat at a place like that
10:51 pm

*giggle* i only ate one piece of the raw stuff, actually, anyway, i am a sushi wimp. i had appetizers and rolls and stuff mostly.
10:52 pm

sushi rolls i mean. not bread rolls.

I wonder how they could have such a place and make $$$. I would think that sushi chefs would cost a lot.
10:53 pm

well, it's a regular restaurant too. not everyone does the all you can eat sushi part.
10:54 pm

I am finished! I have fireworks! My final word was la 5/16.
10:54 pm

I hope it's fixed for you nrkii. It would be a pain to have a computer not work on a weekend
10:54 pm
stidmama

It does NOT take a lot of time to make sushi rolls -- we used to make something like 12 rolls at a time for supper, Nef. What takes time is getting all the ingredients, and since they have lots of customers they can afford to set up multiple parts...
