2:20 am

puglet

I did too for a little bit then it straighten up

2:20 am

gapeach

2:22 am

puglet

not bad so far--its 330 in the morning here so its just starting--And you?

2:24 am

gapeach

I got quite a bit of paper work finished, but not much else.....too hot to do anything much outside. Did manage to water flowers.

2:26 am

puglet

are you a teacher Peach

2:27 am

gapeach

No, hon, I'm retired. I don't have enough patience to be a teacher. I kind of feel sorry for them.

2:27 am

puglet

Its been hot and muggy here the last few days and suppose to be for a couple more days then we are to have a break. What time is it there where you are

2:28 am

gapeach

3:33AM. You are on Central time, aren't you?

2:30 am

puglet

Ive been working on putting things from the garden in the freezer and it seems when its that time its always hot and muggy-lol

2:30 am

puglet

I would love to have a outdoor kitchen

2:30 am

gapeach

I thought Indiana was on Central time.....I'm on Eastern.

2:31 am

gapeach

Yes, that is a good idea......maybe screened in room.

2:31 am

puglet

the last couple of years(maybe longer) they started changing our time in the spring and fall

2:32 am

puglet

puglet

puglet

2:36 am

2:38 am

rubyfoo

I'm a wreck and the boy is wandering around, upset, too

2:38 am

rubyfoo

2:38 am

puglet

thats nice that your vet does that for you

2:38 am

rubyfoo

I think mot people who don't have animals don't understand, my son, for one!

2:39 am

rubyfoo

The's a wonderful vet, smart and nice, and loves our chows

2:39 am

puglet

well I dont have kids and my animals are mine.

2:40 am

puglet

My vet died a few years ago and Iam now using a new one.But the prices here are so high that I do alot myself

2:41 am

puglet

When I had my horses I had to learn alot on doctoring

2:41 am

rubyfoo

vets cost more than people doctors here, but she doesn't charge that much for house visits and used to see Ruby once a month to bring meds and check her failing hert

2:42 am

rubyfoo

pls forgive all the typos; I'm pretty shaky this AM

2:43 am

puglet

My boxer that I got from the pound 2 years ago is so afraid of the flyswatter I cant get her over it. Ive tried everything I know of.But as soon as you swat a bug shes gone

2:44 am

rubyfoo

What if you put the flyswatter on the floor and let her play with it?

2:44 am

puglet

your typing dosent bother me at all. Hugs Ruby it will be alright

2:45 am

puglet

Ive done that(which she wont have no part of) and Ive petter and scratched her with it but to no avail

2:46 am

rubyfoo

I think dogs have very long memories

2:46 am

rubyfoo

If you ever hit a chow, he'll NEVER comes near you again

2:46 am

gapeach

Pug, you can bet that she was abused. I have a hound that would bite any man who came into the house....she would get behind him and bite his shoe or boot. It has taken 3 1/2 years to get her over that. So just give her time and lots and lots of love.

2:46 am

puglet

she was 7 month old when I got her and whoever had her as a pup must of really hurt her with one

2:47 am

rubyfoo

my first chow, Rosie, hated men with beards and bit the vet who had one

2:47 am

rubyfoo

Rufie used to be afrid of newspapers, but he got over it slowly

2:47 am

puglet

shes such a loving dog too--I just hate she has such a fear

2:49 am

puglet

I dont know how she knows but she will be in a deep sleep and as soon as someone picks up a swatter shes gone oout the door

2:50 am

gapeach

Dear peeps, I think I'm going to wind down for later in the day. Think you will like the grid.....not too difficult....however I still need 6. But I will do that later. Ruby you and Pug have a great day. See y'all later.

2:50 am

puglet

You too Peach --take care

2:51 am

rubyfoo

2:51 am

puglet

Ruby how long will your girl be at the vets?

2:52 am

rubyfoo

the vet will bring her home this evening after she's finished working for the day. Our house is half way between her office and her house, very lucky

2:53 am

puglet

yes you are. Your vet sounds wonderful

2:54 am

puglet

I have all mine already done. So I dont have to worry about any of that

2:55 am

o-o

Dogs bark at me ... but not as badly as people do ... .

2:55 am

rubyfoo

WOOF o-o

2:55 am

puglet

4:08 am

rubyfoo

back

4:09 am

puglet

good!

4:10 am

rubyfoo

I'm making my self French tost for lunch, a true comfort food! We were supposed to go out, but I am too worried to leave Rufie aone as he is pacing around looking for his "sister"

4:11 am

rubyfoo

I must sound really crazy, to be so obsessed with my pups

4:11 am

puglet

thats nice and I bet Rufie is glad too

4:11 am

puglet

not at all to me

4:12 am

rubyfoo

he is a very dignified dog but at the same time, very affectionate but only with me

4:12 am

puglet

when I went through it--I called to check on their process

4:13 am

rubyfoo

we night, he stretches out his full length (which is about the same as me, so that I can cuddle him against my body.

4:13 am

puglet

ahh thats nice

4:14 am

puglet

My dane likes to do that but I cant take it too long cause her body heat is too much

4:14 am

rubyfoo

I'm embarrassed to call them, but I trust the vet to make it as painless as possible as she has known Raffie since the first day she arrived here

4:14 am

rubyfoo

you are dne is probably bigger than you are!

4:15 am

puglet

what time is the surgery

4:15 am

rubyfoo

your dane is probbly bigger than you are* I am too nervous to type correctly

4:15 am

puglet

yes she is but its mostly the long legs

4:15 am

rubyfoo

thid orning, I think. Vet picked pup up at 8"15

4:16 am

rubyfoo

Rufie weigh about 80 lbs but doesn't have long legs. His torso is about the same as mine and if his legs were longer, he'd probably be the same weight

4:17 am

rubyfoo

I've only know one dane, but he was a lovely, sweet an gentle dog

4:17 am

puglet

If you think she has already been through I would call and just asked how she came through--If she were a child you would check in--so dont feel bad about it at all

4:18 am

rubyfoo

I don't like little dogs very much, always afraid i'll step on them

4:18 am

puglet

Beulah is just that! She would love to be a lap dog-lol The danes are funny--its like they dont know what to do with those long legs

4:20 am

rubyfoo

that is a very cute image. If I get down on the floor, Rufe lies across my knees. TYhe only problem is getting up after....

4:20 am

puglet

Ive always had large dogs myself until I got this pug and I love her--If she wasent given to me as a gift I would never had gotten a small dog

4:20 am

rubyfoo

I love pugs and dond't think of them as "small" dogs as they are so feisty and have uch big personalities. It would be hard to step on a pug!

4:21 am

puglet

I got to say though its nice to have a small dog to hold

4:21 am

puglet

isnt that the truth

4:22 am

puglet

and Ive always have had male dogs.Now I got all females-lol

4:22 am

rubyfoo

I like all the short-snouted dogs: pugs, boxers, chows, even sharpeis

4:22 am

rubyfoo

with chows, we try to have one of each. I think two males would be too competitive

4:22 am

puglet

Boxers and pitbulls were what I had for several years

4:23 am

rubyfoo

(chows are pretty odd)

4:23 am

puglet

did you breed chows at one time Ruby

4:23 am

rubyfoo

I love the way pitbulls look but only know one who comes to our local resto. Her name is Stephie and she's very fat, very affectionate, but waddles

4:24 am

puglet

I had a girlfriend who owned a chow(very loving) but they seem to be a little stand offish(or he did)

4:24 am

rubyfoo

No, my husband gave me my first one (before we were married) in 1990, just when I came out of the hosital after my cancer surgery. Rosie was my first-ever dog

4:25 am

rubyfoo

They can be really aloof except for Raffie who is all over everybody

4:25 am

puglet

what kind of dogs did you have before the chows

4:25 am

rubyfoo

Always chows, Raffie is my 7th one

4:26 am

rubyfoo

Before Rosie, I thought I was a cat-person. Now cats hate me and bite me if I pet them; I think I'm too accustomed to big, hairy dogs

4:26 am

puglet

ahh! do they have a chow rescue center there?

4:27 am

rubyfoo

No, we import all of ours. They are much more fancy than either of us. And also, very rare here.

4:27 am

puglet

Iam not a cat person--I have had some in the past but I dont have much luck with cats. I do have one in the barn that once belonged to my sister.She is about 15 now

4:28 am

rubyfoo

time to make lunch, see you later, sweetie (or sweeties,if o-o is still here)

4:28 am

puglet

did you import fro china

4:28 am

puglet

okay Ruby enjoy!

4:29 am

rubyfoo

1st 5 came from Ontario, the last two came from Italy (Ruffino) and Spain (Rafaella), but they have the same pure bloodlines from the Mi-Po kennel. You could probably find Mi-Pao on Google and their famous ancestor is Johnnie Walker

4:30 am

rubyfoo

I think you will find them very beautiful

4:30 am

puglet

I bet they are--I will see if I can find it online

4:31 am

puglet

are all your chows been black

4:46 am

grannyrose

helloo, anyone here??

4:53 am

grannyrose

*shrug* okay, going to play boggle. byeeee!!

5:39 am

rubyfoo

anybody here?

5:39 am

Jivingjenny0

hellow ruby

5:39 am

rubyfoo

hello jenny

5:41 am

Jivingjenny0

I am enjoying a few minutes peace after saying goodbye to my daughter and her two nieces who are off on a cruise to Norway for a week.

5:41 am

rubyfoo

that would be a lovely cruise! Is it on one of the smaller ships?

5:43 am

Jivingjenny0

no it's a P & O liner, and as my daughter is single, it only cost her £500 more to take both the girls (aged 21 and 19)

5:44 am

Jivingjenny0

She is the best of aunties as she takes them away every year - twice to France, twice to Florida, Grand Canyon and New York as well as seaside holidays in England. I wish I had had an auntie like that!!

5:45 am

rubyfoo

what a nice thing to do. I imagine that later on, the girld wouldn't wat to take a Holiday with their mother

5:45 am

rubyfoo

pardon my typing I'm a little bit shaky today

5:45 am

Jivingjenny0

their parents are separated and neither one of them is financially able to take them away so Caroline does every year.

5:46 am

rubyfoo

I'm so old I haven't any aunties left! Or uncles or parents, for that matter

5:47 am

Jivingjenny0

Nor have I ruby and in fact I am now a great great aunt to twins and that makes me feel really old!!

5:48 am

rubyfoo

My husband has 5 grandhildren and to soon three, great-grands, and has no interest in any of them.

5:49 am

rubyfoo

I grew up with a million cousins and aunts and uncles but now it's down to a couple of cousins, my sister, her son and family, and my son

5:49 am

rubyfoo

two, soon to be three*

5:50 am

Jivingjenny0

oh what a shame, I have 4 grand daughters and one grandson and I've lost count of the nieces and nephews and their children there are so many of them

5:50 am

rubyfoo

One of my girlfriends is one of 12: 2 sets of twins and one set of triplets. And one of her daughters had twins

5:51 am

rubyfoo

we are all so spread out that it wouldn't make much of a difference

5:51 am

Jivingjenny0

When i fell over recently my eldest grand daughter came from about 6 miles away because she didn't think that my husband and daughter would look after me properly!! so funny really but lovely

5:52 am

rubyfoo

that is a nice story

5:52 am

rubyfoo

Of all m cousins, I was the only one close to my paternal grandmother which was a blessing

5:53 am

Jivingjenny0

My husband has 4 brothers and all our children both married and unmarried live within walking distance of us and for Christmas we always hire the village hall as at least 25 of us spend it together

5:53 am

rubyfoo

that is wonderful; you are truly fortunate!

5:55 am

Jivingjenny0

It's been lovely to talk to you Ruby, but I shall have to poof now and tidy up after the hurricane :-) I have forgotten how much mess two teenagers can make

5:55 am

rubyfoo

bye and have a lovely day! It's nap time for me

NonoNanette

sound like the drain may be plugged trif

BzznBea

I'm taking strong Irish coffee with me to the pb...

7:18 am

periwinkle

my goodness. I am on a roll today.

7:20 am

Trifioso

ok, need a babble weigh in....according to our divorce agreement, mr. hate is entitled to 7 uninterrupted days with the kids each summer. he chose this week as his week. Both girls immediately made plans to go away with friends -- and he agreed. does this mean that they are a) so comfortable in their relationships with each other that they don't have to spend the week together or b) so uncomfortable with each other that they are all mutually relieved by this arrangement?

7:20 am

BzznBea

B

7:20 am

Dorens

ask the girls

7:21 am

BzznBea

Are they teens?

7:21 am

NonoNanette

i would say B trif but yes ask the girls, I;m sure they would be honest with you

7:21 am

Trifioso

yes

7:25 am

NonoNanette

morning Annie

7:26 am

NonoNanette

hi Dorens

7:26 am

Anniebrook

hi dorens, dawg, Owl, nono, bea

7:27 am

Anniebrook

speaking of gentle rains, it is gently raining here now

7:27 am

Anniebrook

and hi to Trif

7:27 am

Dorens

yes, here too. but last night wasn't exactly gentle

7:27 am

Trifioso

hello annie!

7:27 am

lbdawger

help with the fu6?

7:28 am

Dorens

latin plural

7:28 am

Dorens

i was amazed when i tried it, dawg. was just playing around

7:28 am

Anniebrook

Trif, in answer to your question, I also say B

7:28 am

Trifioso

thanks annie

7:29 am

Dorens

and yes, trif, altho my knee jerk answer was ask the girls, most likely it's B.. but we don't know what's in their heads as you might

7:29 am

Trifioso

it will go down in history as the "week he had the kids without actually having the kids"

7:30 am

72 Temple Owl

tough situation, trif.

7:30 am

Anniebrook

but he does see them at other times, doesn't he?

7:31 am

Trifioso

once a week for about an hour and a half

7:31 am

NonoNanette

he wouldn't use it as a reason to get back at you later would he trif?

7:31 am

Trifioso

I don't see how he can, nono - they both asked him if they could go away, and he agreed

7:32 am

Anniebrook

Trif, my ex'husband saw my daughter once a week for about an hour and a half too and he missed a lot

7:32 am

NonoNanette

the fact that he spends so little time with them on a weekly basis sounds like the less the better for him

7:33 am

Trifioso

yes. I agree. he is missing out. I think that is my issue - I'm projecting how I would feel into it, and the fact is, he is NOT me, doesn't think like me, and never will. I have to stop doing that

7:33 am

Trifioso

and I worry what message it sends the girls, that they were so easily let out of the week.

7:33 am

Dorens

just worry about you and your kids if you need to worry this

7:33 am

Dorens

just worry about you and your kids if you need to worry this

7:34 am

Dorens

but they're probably just relieved... they're teenagers

7:34 am

Anniebrook

I agree with Dorens

7:35 am

BzznBea

You can't make people have relationships. As the girls get older, they will build a relationship with their dad on thier needs.

7:35 am

Trifioso

yes. yes they will, and yes, you are all quite correct. thanks friends

7:35 am

Dorens

exactly what my kids have done (they're in their 30's)

7:36 am

72 Temple Owl

well, about 75% done... finish now or later?

7:36 am

NonoNanette

go for it to

7:37 am

Trifioso

gosh, you are a speedy owl today!

7:37 am

NonoNanette

7:37 am

72 Temple Owl

Why does a chicken coop have only two doors?
If it had four, it would be a chicken sedan.

8:25 am

That joke was fowl.

Yes. That too. :-)

8:26 am

Aloyisius

umm, just looked it up.. I saw re6.33, and it is not a cow shed.. but a lively dance

8:27 am

Aloyisius

close, lol

8:27 am

Aloyisius

the cows do a re6.33 in the shed

8:27 am

Judi

I think cows do many things while humans aren't looking.

8:28 am

Aloyisius

who knows what goes on in the minds of cows

8:29 am

Judi

It's udderly mysterious.

8:29 am

Aloyisius

.. the shadow knows

8:29 am

Aloyisius

lol Judi.. I need your brand of coffee

8:31 am

Judi

Little known fact: The chap who tended the cattle for the royals in Britain was knighted for helping produce such fine creatures.

8:32 am

Judi

He is known as "Sir Loin of Beef".

8:32 am

Aloyisius

ok, now I've learned another fascinating fact!

8:34 am

Judi

Sorry. Can't resist the opportunity of a good pun.

8:34 am

Aloyisius

that was excellent!

8:36 am

the state dept of labor just issued an order to shut down a local place of business due to a variety of workplace violations, including misclassification of workers as independent contractors, failure to maintain payroll records, and not paying the proper minimum wage or overtime.

9:51 am

periwinkle

this is a tough grid for me

9:52 am

hurshy

i had been aware that the business had previously been warned/fined over issues of employed undocumented workers. and the article i read, the owner's name is chinese. you would think that that means his family probably hasn't been here that many generations and he would perhaps have more sympathy for the plight of his employees!

9:52 am

hurshy

geesh.

9:52 am

cybernan

104 down but starting to struggle

10:00 am

10:07 am

penquis

make that yeses, sir! ;o)

10:08 am

MollyL

Yes, and that gets spelled "eh" which I have never understood.

10:10 am

cybernan

eh is an expression - like the americans' huh - the a in the corner means yeses as in yes votes

10:11 am

MollyL

I always associate the a in the corner with Scottish/Irish yeses.

10:11 am

cybernan

that too, molly

10:15 am

cybernan

re 6/33, please?

10:16 am

10:38 am

bichon

No, in CT, hurshy

10:39 am

hurshy

10:40 am

Not bad thanks, Sprite..Nice & warm again today..went with my sister & parents to the seafront..Father stayed in the car as not too wel..but a pleasant day none the less.

12:14 pm

zoozzoom

Hello, Puglet.

12:14 pm

zoozzoom

How was your day, Sprite?

12:15 pm

sprite

sounds good, zooz. Sorry your father didn't feel so well. But glad he could come with you.

12:16 pm

zoozzoom

Yes even when it was close to 90F outside he still feels cold..bless him.

12:17 pm

sprite

pretty intense, pug, Friday is always a full day of therapy for me. Am rather tired. But happy to be here :)

12:17 pm

puglet

Ive been putting tomatoes up in the freezer---I so wish I had a outdoor kitchen-lal

12:18 pm

zoozzoom

Glad you are ok though, Spritey *Hugs*

12:18 pm

sprite

*hugs right back* Thanks zooz :)

12:18 pm

puglet

do you mind me asking what kind of therapy

12:18 pm

sprite

lol pug... yeah, hot and humid job, that.

12:19 pm

sprite

It is a combination of therapy for the body and for the mind (ptsd).

12:20 pm

puglet

does it help

12:20 pm

sprite

yes. Teaches me lots of skills that help me manage my handicaps and ptsd.

12:21 pm

puglet

Zoom thats nice to spend a day with your family.Sad that your father is under the weather

12:21 pm

sprite

will your father feel better anytime soon, zooz? Or is this more of a permanent issue?

12:21 pm

puglet

Sprite Iam sorry but I dont know what ptsd stands for

12:22 pm

sprite

post traumatic stress disorder

12:22 pm

zoozzoom

Yes i enjoy my time with the family..he has been under the weather for a few years now..we think something more serious is going on with him.but he does not want to know.

12:23 pm

sprite

aw poor man. *hugs* for you, zooz, and healing vibes to your dad.

12:23 pm

puglet

Sprite is that a type of depression

12:23 pm

puglet

How old is your father Zoom if its okay to ask

12:24 pm

zoozzoom

Yes, sprite. He has massive hernias his throst closes up when he tries to eat..he has very sore eyes which doctors say is dry eyes..but every cream or drops do not help.plus other complications too many to go into.

12:24 pm

sprite

no, but depression is part of it, pug. It is a whole syndrome of hyper-alertness, depression, panic, and much more.

12:24 pm

zoozzoom

Step father..he is 82...i think..gosh i can't remember now..how aweful is that.

12:25 pm

sprite

oh dear, zooz... am so sorry for him.

12:25 pm

puglet

Zoom has he lost the will to live? I know thats not pleasent to think about--but sometimes the elderly does

12:26 pm

puglet

Oh poor Sprite(((hugs))) must be awful to live with.Have you had this long

12:26 pm

zoozzoom

haha no..he is a fighter alright...he does have days where he is not too happy..but on the whole he just gets on with it.

12:27 pm

sprite

yeah it stinks,pug. Have had it almost my whole life. It started in childhood... childhood was kind of a warzone for me.

12:27 pm

puglet

I know men can be stubborn about going to doctors or admitting they have problems too much for them to handle

12:28 pm

zoozzoom

Depression is just horrible..would not wish it on my worst enemy. I sort of know how you feel, Sprite.

12:28 pm

puglet

One of my sisters went through cronic depression and it was an awful time for her family and us too

12:29 pm

sprite

I know you do, zooz. Been there, done that, right? So glad you are feeling a bit lighter nowadays.

12:29 pm

sprite

that is awful, pug. Did she get out of it eventually?

12:29 pm

12:31 pm

zoozzoom

Which is really nice to hear, Sprite.

12:32 pm

sprite

oh pug... that is a sad thing. I mean, great she doesn't try to commit suicide anymore, but sad that that is the best that can be said atm. Will try and send her little rays of sunshine.

12:32 pm

hego

I think Zooz is doing better now, at least I hope so.

12:32 pm

zoozzoom

Hego, I feel it is a lot more common than people realise.

12:32 pm

puglet

I have too but with the higher power I was able to pull myself out of it

12:32 pm

sprite

am sorry to hear that, hego. It is a tough battle all the way.

onyx

Perhaps a permanent one

12:45 pm

sprite

glad she is back home safely, ruby.

12:45 pm

rubyfoo

She has the same skin problem that Rufie had last summer and that seems to be bothering her much more than the surgery

12:45 pm

sprite

oh yeah, a permanent one would be nice :)

12:45 pm

puglet

hugs Ruby glad all went well and your worries are over

12:45 pm

rubyfoo

12:53 pm

puglet

whats he doing

12:54 pm

rubyfoo

licking her all over and puttig his egs around her. He really missed her all day, was wandering around like a lost soul

12:54 pm

puglet

she might be confusing him cause she will have a different smell plus the old smell too

12:55 pm

rubyfoo

that might be it, pug

12:55 pm

sprite

I would say separate them for now, ruby, and let your girl recover from her ordeal.

12:55 pm

rubyfoo

I don't think he'll hurt her but I can't bear to wtch

12:55 pm

puglet

can you put a gate between them(one that they can see and smell through to give her a little time to mend

12:56 pm

rubyfoo

I thought she'd be sleepy but she's not

12:57 pm

puglet

If you can phone your vet to get his say on it then I would

12:58 pm

puglet

You dont want her to pull out her stitches

12:59 pm

puglet

Poor Ruby she worries herself too much

1:00 pm

bichon

I worry about my two little ones, but if I do it publicly, then I see more neurotic than I am

1:01 pm

sprite

I guess we all worry about our dear ones.

1:01 pm

puglet

are you talking about kids or pets Bichon

1:01 pm

bichon

If they don't eat, I worry that they're going to starve. And I was the same way with my children

My two little boys are marco and Polo. Other boy is 40.

Ca4/5?

5:07 pm

penquis

the last one is a man's name

5:08 pm

MollyL

Oh, I thought Tor was answering Ru's question about Nadal's sister.

5:09 pm

penquis

perhaps he was....

5:09 pm

torgone

I was guessing that .. Either Fredo or Ca4/5 ..

5:11 pm

penquis

ah...sorry...

5:11 pm

penquis

Freda perhaps....

5:11 pm

MollyL

Internet research says the sister is Maria Isabel, so I am stumped. Unless it's a nickname.

5:12 pm

penquis

or he made it up... ;o)

5:12 pm

MollyL

And we are left to wonder...

5:16 pm

Nef

good afternoon, Everybody. How are you all today on this beautiful day?

5:38 pm

penquis

hi nef...

5:39 pm

Nef

hi pen. I'm just starting the grid now; first one I've had time to do all week. (I hope it isn't miserable or too hard...)

5:40 pm

penquis

it was fine for me....

5:40 pm

Nef

Thanks! That's very encouraging! :-)

5:41 pm

penquis

yw...

5:43 pm

Nef

first time through grid too 10 minutes, 22 words and awee

5:44 pm

Nef

well 12 minutes in and off to the PB already!

5:45 pm

penquis

heh heh...

5:46 pm

penquis

if you scroll down the chat, you will get a freebie...

5:47 pm

Nef

someone is already in the PB with me? (Looks pretty empty so far....)

5:49 pm

Nef

I see a note on the desk from bichon; she took the choclits and ran off to the pool with them!

5:50 pm

Nef

And the cabana boys went with her! (I can't see where she is though; and the pool is missing too!

5:51 pm

penquis

ah...there is always action in the PB....

5:54 pm

Nef

not much right now; no Bichon, no choclits, no pool, no cabana boys.... I'll have to do something about that. ;-)

5:55 pm

Nef

Did you finish already penquis?

5:56 pm

penquis

yes

5:58 pm

Nef

Congratulations! WTG!

not a word (to anyone lurking)

6:00 pm

penquis

heh heh...

6:01 pm

Nef

After not playing much I seem to put things in the wrong box a lot: chat in the word box and words in the chog. Not a good plan...

6:03 pm

penquis

understandable..

6:09 pm

Nef

35 minutes in; NBT, NBS, and 75 words found. But it's getting harder to see words now (maybe time for coffee or something to eat would help?)

6:11 pm

stidmama

hey Nef

6:11 pm

stidmama

hey all

6:11 pm

stidmama

worth starting?

6:11 pm

penquis

hi

6:12 pm

penquis

yes

6:12 pm

Nef

hey stud! How are you? I'm doing pretty good on this one so far; you should breeze right through it. :-)

6:13 pm

Nef

errr, STID; (not stud)

6:13 pm

stidmama

thanks, will start while watching The Avengers (again) with Grant.

6:13 pm

stidmama

thanks, will start while watching The Avengers (again) with Grant.

6:14 pm

stidmama

sorry for the double entry... too much coffee when meeting with the contractor this morning. LOVE these guys. I get frustrated, they get frustrated, but we can talk and work things out and it is good. My kitchen will be AMAZING!!!!

6:14 pm

Nef

Woo Hoo Stid! That sounds great!

6:14 pm

Nef

(How big will it be?)

6:15 pm

stidmama

the kitchen is approximately 17 x 12 feet, open along one long side to the dining space which is open to the living room/entry...

6:16 pm

stidmama

17 feet of counter space (less the stovetop) along the long wall, 8-12 feet of counter on the window wall... and an island (eventually, when we can afford it) that adds another 25 square feet...

6:16 pm

cosdem

*drags self in the chat*

6:17 pm

stidmama

COS!!!! (((hugs))) was talking about you earlier :-) how are you?

6:17 pm

Nef

Oh, WOW, stid! That's HUGE and wonderful!!!

6:17 pm

Nef

hi cos. How's the new job going?

6:17 pm

cosdem

I have my first cold in 4 years and I havent even worked iwth the kids yet

6:18 pm

cosdem

tomorrow is day of rest, sunday i have to work overtime for 5 hours to meet parents...

6:18 pm

Nef

stress, maybe? (and going through orientation?

6:18 pm

penquis

all tiring...

6:18 pm

cosdem

yes im thinking stress, not used to the early hours this week etc etc..

6:19 pm

cosdem

sunday I dont have to work til 4pm and on Monday my normal hours begin (3pm-midnight) so it'll be better.

6:19 pm

stidmama

sorry about the cold -- you'll probably have a lot of viral spells the first few months. WASH YOUR HANDS every time you turn around. Keep a little hand sanitizer thingy in your pocket and use it frequently. Of course, don't touch your face if you can help it... LOL

6:20 pm

Nef

definitely REST tomorrow then cos. I think that hot honey lemon tea and chicken soup are wonderful for colds.

6:20 pm

stidmama

Vitamin C can be helpful sometimes, but mostly sleep, taking care of your health is essential.

6:20 pm

cosdem

Oh good idea. I'll run to the store in a bit and get soup and vit c

6:21 pm

stidmama

oh -- and even if you thrive on coffee and sugar, I recommend trying to NOT drink it very often. Partly so it works when you really need it, and partly because I have found that when I drink a lot of sugary coffee I get sick more often.

6:21 pm

stidmama

wow NBT and only up to 46 so far.

6:21 pm

cosdem

Alright. I'll stick to clear fluids when at work then. Which is going to be like all te time now :P

6:22 pm

Nef

re: those hand sanitizer bottles: be sure and wash your hands every so often with soap and water too. Some people depend on them so much they forget that soap and water hand washings help get rid of the bacteria too.

6:22 pm

stidmama

:-D I have a monster mug (holds about a liter) that I put tea in, cos -- when I have a cold I add some lemon to the tea and honey and it keeps me going on long days teaching.

6:23 pm

cosdem

lol I have like 100 of these bottles in my office. my boss gave them to me. ive been using them and water/soap frequently

6:23 pm

cosdem

I think I have one of these mugs. I'll look for it tomorrow.

6:24 pm

cosdem

(Yes I have my own office!)

6:24 pm

stidmama

oooh. own office! :-D

6:24 pm

Nef

really, stud? I never liked sugar in coffee, but we recommend that people shouldn't drink much caffeine when they're sick because the caffeine can dehydrate you too.

6:25 pm

stidmama

If they don't discourage it, and didn't already suggest it, a few pics of your home/pets can be a way for kids to connect with you.

6:25 pm

cosdem

The kids go to bed at 830. So I get to sit in my office every night for almost 4 hours making sure they stay in bed :P

6:26 pm

Nef

How do you hear them sneaking out?

6:26 pm

stidmama

*groan* really nef? LOL He uses the eyes in the back of his head, which come standard with all teaching/helping jobs...

6:27 pm

cosdem

lol they never sneak out theyre like 8.

6:27 pm

cosdem

besides theyd have to walk past my office to get to the door to leave the building

6:28 pm

stidmama

they won't try to sneak out, cos -- but when they are sick or scared, they will be out of bed...

6:28 pm

Nef

True, stud; but I'm sure if the kids should be in bed at 8:30, they can try to sneak out too.

6:28 pm

stidmama

the weird thing about parenting was how often those little guys decided to wake up JUST as I was starting to relax!

6:28 pm

Nef

ARGG! Sorry stId!

6:29 pm

penquis

*wondering who stud was*...

6:29 pm

stidmama

Not all kids really have the same sleep schedule, some need more sleep, others less -- and their personal sleep clocks might be off by an hour from the "average" kid... just fyi. :-)

6:29 pm

cosdem

nbt

6:29 pm

Nef

That's the part that always got to me; just when I thought I could relax and enjoy a good book; that's when our kids would get up again.

6:30 pm

stidmama

LOL I knew who you meant, Nef -- it's such a common ty-op that I automatically translate these days

6:30 pm

stidmama

go cos go!

6:30 pm

stidmama

oops. Time to shove more pain meds down Grant's throat... brb

6:31 pm

Nef

What's wrong with Grant?

6:31 pm

Nef

Cos, how many kids will you have to worry about?

6:32 pm

stidmama

wisdom teeth pulled on Monday. He's actually coping okay with OTC today. MUCH better experience compared to December when 5 days after was only the beginning of the worst pain.

6:35 pm

Nef

oh, yuk! A friends' daughter had hers pulled this week and she's been a real drama queen through it all. Her mom is a night nurse and the girl (late teens) carried on so bad that my friend had to call in and not work for 3 nights.

6:37 pm

stidmama

Grant is a wonderful patient; almost too good. He rarely complains, and when he does I really pay attention... I had to really underscore how important it is to stay ahead on the meds so it never got horrible before taking more.

6:39 pm

Nef

that's good, stud. I always told my patients that we wanted to keep the pain level at a 3/10 or less

6:40 pm

stidmama

I think he's only reached 4-5 in the morning when he hasn't had anything for 8 hours. I have been waking him up just to give him something before the pain is enough to wake him.

6:42 pm

stidmama

He's an awfully sound sleeper... and a night owl. Cos, if you're still there, Grant was one of the ones who naturally would stay awake until around 10 or so even as a little guy. His brother on the other hand, until he was a teenager could happily fall asleep at 7 and still wakes by 8 in the morning no matter how late he stays up.

6:42 pm

Nef

(here's my pain scale:
1-3 =pain you can be distracted from (like a headache you forget about when you're busy)
3-6 + pain you can't be distracted from: you know it's there but you can eat, watch TV talk & visit
7-10 = Shut up; GO Away; Give me drugs! (pain that's so bad you can't eat, visit, watch TV or anything else).

6:43 pm

stidmama

Good pain scale, will share with Grant... (he has found some computer games that are great for distracting him this week)

6:43 pm

Nef

If his pain level is just 4-5, you're doing a good job, stid.

6:44 pm

Nef

BRB

6:45 pm

stidmama

He responds that he thinks mostly he has been around a 2. I have been doing for him what I learned to do for myself: staggering the medications so he is never below a single-pill dose of either tylenol or advil, and usually has a "maximum" dose (or close to it) on board.

6:47 pm

stidmama

ooooooh. I found the fu 5 by myself!

6:47 pm

stidmama

oh, fu 6... *sigh* figners

6:48 pm

penquis

yea!

6:48 pm

stidmama

and now past halfway!

6:48 pm

stidmama

:-D

6:49 pm

Nef

WYW, stid!

6:50 pm

Nef

I had to go say goodbye to DH and son; they are off to a sports bar for the pre-season football game. DIL and grandson left for the weekend (going to her Mom's)
I have the HOUSE TO MYSELF!!!

6:51 pm

Nef

(and now that I'm reaing my previous note; I meant YAY, stud!!

6:53 pm

stidmama

oh what fun!!!! And now you are babbling instead of enjoying yourself... LOL

6:54 pm

Nef

I AM enjoying myself by Babbling, stud. I haven't been able to play all week tip today

6:56 pm

stidmama

wow -- that's hard to not be able to babble, Nef -- I am frequently not babbling by choice, trying to force myself to get to tasks... which reminds me. I need to email our plumber about a couple of things. Back in a few.

6:56 pm

MollyL

Nef has the house to herself?? *Faints*

6:57 pm

Nef

Doesn't happen often enough; I can't remember when the last time was....

6:59 pm

Shirlockc

fu6?

7:00 pm

penquis

plural of the thing that a seesaw sits on.....

7:03 pm

penquis

did that work for you, shirl?

7:05 pm

Shirlockc

not yet, still thinking

7:05 pm

MollyL

fu6...I can't eat anymore, I am ***l + babies ***wl before they walk

7:05 pm

Shirlockc

thx, i kept using the e instead of the a

7:07 pm

penquis

yw...

7:07 pm

MollyL

Well you are smarter than I am Shirl. I had no idea about the seesaw thing.

7:08 pm

penquis

sorry...it's the first thing i thought of...

7:08 pm

Shirlockc

not at all molly, brain is full of trivia

7:09 pm

MollyL

No need to be sorry, I just don't hear that word very often.

7:17 pm

Nef

Just fixed some left over (home made by our son) pho soup, and settling back in to Babble; watching Science Channel. Pure Bliss! :-)

7:18 pm

penquis

pho soup/

7:20 pm

Nef

yes. It's an Asian (Hmong, maybe?) soup that's very hot broth and rice noodles, and you add your own choice of fresh veggies and herbs to it.

7:21 pm

penquis

ah...

7:22 pm

Nef

Then you can add Hoisen sauce and/or sriracha (very Hot!) sauce to it

thanks, stud; I didn't know that. But it is delicious!

7:34 pm

gapeach

OK, except for the headache that, I think is caused by the heat and humidity.....try not to complain.....most of my friends are in the same boat.

7:34 pm

stidmama

well, if you ever want to make it, there are lots of great recipes online. :-)

7:34 pm

Nef

We have a huge Hmong population here; that's why I thought it was their s

7:35 pm

Hi all :)

7:36 pm

Do you have headaches often, stiddie?

7:36 pm

gapeach

Hey there, Lizlin.

7:36 pm

stidmama

hey liz!

7:36 pm

stidmama

mmm. leftover pho! LOVE IT!

7:36 pm

Lizlin

Hi Peach - sorry you're not feeling too well.

7:36 pm

Nef

hi Lizlin

7:37 pm

Lizlin

Peach - I've posted some new whale pics following our morning whale watching on Wednesday!

7:37 pm

Lizlin

It was an awesome morning - one of the best.

7:37 pm

stidmama

I have migraines, peach, with multiple triggers. They have been much fewer and much milder since the housefire, not sure if there was something in the house that was predisposing me to them, or whether it was the teaching (around all those chemicals people use) ... either way, it has been nice to have a more normal head for a few months.

7:37 pm

gapeach

Thanks, Liz. The headaches are much worse in hot weather, for me. I didn't have them this often when I lived in CT.

7:38 pm

Lizlin

Heat and humidity can really have a bad effect on how you feel.

7:38 pm

Nef

Beautiful pics, Liz.

7:39 pm

Lizlin

At one point, the whale lifted its head out of the water and I could almost have kissed it!!!

7:39 pm

Nef

I get headaches from the weather too; but it's more the humidity than the heat for me.

7:39 pm

Lizlin

Thanks Nef :)

7:40 pm

stidmama

wow, liz, what a GREAT experience!!!

7:40 pm

gapeach

Oh, bless you stiddie. I used to have them for weeks at a time. Was on a plane once and barfed for a bit....so embarassing....but couldn't help it. I remember the pilot saying " Ladies and gentlemen we are now over Lake Charles Louisiana".....I used to feel much better after getting my stomach emptied. LOL

7:40 pm

Lizlin

One of the best, Stid :)

7:41 pm

stidmama

yikes, peach -- well, "better out than in" as Shrek says...

7:42 pm

Lizlin

Coming back from Canada last week, my hubby fainted in the washroom! Again a case of better out than in!!!!

7:42 pm

stidmama

oh oh, Liz!

7:43 pm

Nef

Oh dear! I hope someone was with him keeping him safe!

7:43 pm

stidmama

okay, about time for me to go water a friend's plants. Will be back later tonight for some of my last 65. We'll have chicken soup tonight... *fades out slowly after hiding choclits in the PB*

So your husband is alright now?

7:46 pm

Nef

How far away is it from you Liz?

7:46 pm

Lizlin

Yes - he's fine and was fine immediately afterwards.

7:46 pm

gapeach

Good.

7:47 pm

Lizlin

We live about 12 km from the coast - and on this occasion I guess we were about 4 miles from shore - quite close in, though sometimes they're much closer and others much further..

I have come to the conclusion that I am just door opener for the dogs! One will come begging to go out and when I get there, she looks at me like I'm out of my mind......perhaps I am. LOL

8:14 pm

8:55 pm

gapeach

Sue, I didn't know a thing about it until someone here started talking about it. Now, I'm hooked. The work is done so well and the story is spellbinding. It is on the Twitter or Facebook sites. The fourth season will come out in January. Think you might like it too.

8:55 pm

uusue2

where did you take them, liz?

8:55 pm

Lizlin

On the Gold Coast last Wednesday.

8:55 pm

uusue2

fantastic, liz! I want to go there!!!

8:56 pm

gapeach

Oh, please, don't be embarrassed, Liz. You have a wonderful talent and people would so enjoy seeing your work.

8:56 pm

Lizlin

Though we did see bubble net feeding in Alaska and orcas on a whale watching trip from Victoria.

8:56 pm

uusue2

peach, I'm sure I would, we are just finishing Game of Thrones (the TV series, I've read the books)

8:57 pm

Lizlin

Gold Coast is great for whale watching - especially in August - it's mid-season and there are now whales swimming both north and south.

8:57 pm

Lizlin

Loved Game of Thrones - have seen all 3 series and have just completed the next book.

8:57 pm

gapeach

Oh, sue, I didn't know about Game of Thrones. Which channel is it on, please?

8:58 pm

uusue2

HBO, peach, my son bought the first two seasons on DVD and then pirated the third (I didn't say that, of course...)

8:58 pm

Lizlin

It's on Showcase here - don't know about in the US.

8:58 pm

gapeach

I will definitely check into it.

8:59 pm

Lizlin

That's right HBO!

8:59 pm

9:00 pm

I bought the first four books as a set from Amazon for $16 just last week; I'd borrowed them the first time (my son has the 5th in hardcover)

9:00 pm

Lizlin

I'm afraid I downloaded them and am reading them on my iPad!

9:01 pm

Lizlin

Legally bought of course!

I wish I knew more about the computer than I do. Most of my friends do lots of keen things with theirs.
