grannyrose

3rd course lamb, chicken and a plate of veges, potato, sweet potato and tomatos

3:12 am

joso

3:12 am

sprite

I don't do fish too well. But the 3rd course sounds lovely again.

3:12 am

puglet

sprite

rose, and then they rolled you home?

3:13 am

puglet

okay Sprite--thanks

3:14 am

grannyrose

3:14 am

joso

3:15 am

puglet

and how was the wedding?

3:15 am

grannyrose

oh, and btw, the crutches are no longer needed. ankle is fantastic...exercises are working...lol

3:15 am

grannyrose

joso, like a vine leaf...*giggle*

3:15 am

puglet

ALRIGHT!!!!

3:15 am

joso

I alwasy hesitate to order kalimari, so often overcooked then it's like gnawing on a tire

3:16 am

grannyrose

the wedding was gorgeous. very laid back, but still the full anglican ritual.

3:16 am

puglet

what is kalimari(kangeroo?) lal

3:16 am

joso

octopuss

3:16 am

sprite

puglet:
http://tinyurl.com/nxvpb95

3:16 am

grannyrose

yeah, joso. DH is of the same opinion. but last night it melted in your mouth

3:17 am

sprite

calimari are octopus rings, fried.

3:17 am

joso

it is wonderful when done right

3:17 am

grannyrose

pugs, kalamari is octopi rings,from the tentacles

3:17 am

puglet

thats where to find the recipe Sprite?

3:17 am

sprite

yes puglet :) I googled it for you. My recipe is about the same as this one.

3:18 am

puglet

ahhh Learn something new everyday--thanks for the imfo

3:18 am

puglet

okay Sprite--thank you

3:19 am

grannyrose

i wish you could have seen the wedding...maybe i will get DH to help me post a few photos. the reading was from ecclastesis. the part where a cord of 3 strands is not easily broken.

3:20 am

puglet

brb coffee pot is whistling for me

3:20 am

sprite

a nice symbolic reading, rose. And yes, please, would love to see a few pics!

3:20 am

grannyrose

the vicar pulled a boat cable out of the bag, and invited the bride and groom to pull it apart. no, they couldn't. then he called the whole bridal party up, and they had a tug-of-war, right there in the church. it was great.

3:20 am

sprite

aw that is funny!

3:20 am

joso

big grid considering that there are no s's

3:21 am

sprite

yes, it is joso. And when I started I thought it would never open up. But at some point it did.

3:22 am

puglet

I like this grid better than the one yesterday

3:22 am

joso

the bride and groom should get that rope, plat it into a nice celtic knot and mount it on a wall

3:23 am

sprite

or a monkeyfist :)

3:23 am

puglet

My 17th wedding anv. is coming up here soon

3:24 am

joso

got big plans pug?

3:24 am

sprite

oh really, puglet? Mine too!

3:24 am

grannyrose

lol. the young bride wanted that verse, as she considered herself, her new husband and God to be that cord of three strands. joso, what a great idea!

3:25 am

puglet

NO--my hubby is not into the gooey stuff

3:25 am

sprite

ours is on friday 13 september... and we were warried on a friday as well. Double celebration (we usually celebrate every Friday 13th).

3:25 am

sprite

mine isn't either, pug. We had a party planned, but he called it off.

3:25 am

sprite

very nice imagery, rose

3:26 am

puglet

9-6-96---------I picked a date that he could remember easily-lol

3:26 am

joso

I was born on a friday the 13th, and 13th birthday was a friday

3:26 am

sprite

warried? Now that is a freudian slip if I ever saw one, lollll. Married!

3:26 am

sprite

that is exactly one week before us, pug. What are the odds!

3:27 am

puglet

how many years Sprite

3:27 am

grannyrose

on second thoughts, that nautical rope was extremely thick and about 15 feet long. it would make a pretty big celtic knot.

3:27 am

sprite

oh joso that is lovely!

3:27 am

sprite

17 as well, pug.

3:27 am

sprite

rose: it would make a monkey fist one could sit on :)

3:27 am

puglet

oh wow! its a small world-lal

3:28 am

sprite

it is :D

3:28 am

joso

one bro was born on halloween and the other was born on my parents aniversary

3:28 am

puglet

you can remember back that far Joso? lal

3:29 am

puglet

Rose how long have you been married

3:29 am

sprite

wow special days all

3:30 am

grannyrose

9 years, pugs, this time around. the first marriage lasted 17 years.

3:30 am

joso

just about right gran, they weave back and forth interlacing, should cover a foot to a foot and a half square, depending on the pattern chosen

3:31 am

grannyrose

there was a hiatus of 12 years in the middle

3:31 am

sprite

so that makes you about 56, rose ;)

3:32 am

grannyrose

i wish sprite, didn't mention that i was married the first time at the tender age of 22

3:33 am

sprite

*grin* You'll always be young in my eyes, rose.

3:34 am

grannyrose

lol, thanx, friend

3:34 am

sprite

god I wish we could meet for real.

3:34 am

puglet

what is an age anyway?

3:34 am

sprite

but lacking that, babble is a great alternative

3:34 am

grannyrose

sweetheart, it will happen one day....i will make it happen..

3:35 am

sprite

pug, I always joke that I will never be as old as I feel.

3:36 am

sprite

*sending up prayers to the Big Man upthere* Bring rose and me together, please, somehow, and if you could add puglet and joso it would be awesome!

3:36 am

puglet

I need to win a BIG lottery to be able to travel to meet you all

3:36 am

grannyrose

you are only as old as the man you feel, or in joso's case, the woman you feel. *giggle*

3:36 am

sprite

woooooooot rose! God I love that one.

3:36 am

grannyrose

hey, if my ship comes in, we all will be there.

3:37 am

sprite

same here, pug. Either that or writing a bestseller. Working on one again, lol.

3:37 am

puglet

those feelings rotate for me-lal

3:37 am

joso

lifeguard at my pool had to ask if I got the seniors discount, was very shy about it, afraid to insult me i think, was very cute. don't know if she could ever save my life if it came to that, came all the way up to my mid chest and had to weigh all of 85 lbs, lol

3:39 am

puglet

you're funny Joso----you never know! She just might!

3:39 am

grannyrose

opposite to my experience, joso. went out for coffee, and when i went to did senior's card out of purse, was waved away, and told, you qualify, no problems. *groan*

3:40 am

puglet

ahh poor Rose! hugs

3:40 am

grannyrose

well it did prick the bubble, sprite...

3:41 am

joso

I used to be able to drink at 14 because of beard, now that it is white I can scam seniors discounts if i wish, great friend my beard

3:42 am

puglet

and can you pass as santa too?

3:43 am

joso

easy, have done so, just let it run wild about 2 months before christmas. i really enjoy being santa

3:45 am

puglet

last year my sister in vegas and her hubby dressed an Mr and Mrs Santa and went about giving out small gifts to the elderly about their area--I thought that was nice of them to do

3:45 am

sprite

aww that is so sweet! I wanna see a pic of you as santa, joso!

3:45 am

sprite

rose, that coffee shoppist needs to be flogged.

3:45 am

sprite

oh yes, such a nice thing to do.

3:47 am

joso

I don't think i have any, lots of pix taken but the kids get them. Not much of a picture person, kind of regreting that later in life

3:47 am

grannyrose

lol, sprite...yeah i quite agree. but as DH (don't forget he is scottish) was paying, HE was tickled pink. didn't have to pay as much.

3:48 am

sprite

:D Ah well, we are willing to suffer if it makes our husbands happy, aren't we...

3:48 am

sprite

joso, make sure you get one this year then, please please please with a banana on top?

3:49 am

joso

I love haw DH can stand for so many things, have to read the current meaning from the context

3:49 am

puglet

Sprite and Rose do you do Santa there too

3:49 am

grannyrose

lol, watching 'the vicar of dibley'...she is changing her god-daughters soiled nappy.

3:49 am

joso

*how... haw

3:49 am

sprite

I always read it as dear husband. Though I usually call my husband what he really is... my love.

3:50 am

sprite

pug, we have the original thing... Sinterklaas. Let me find you a site that explains it.

3:50 am

puglet

Iam watching pregames of football

3:51 am

sprite

pug, this is fun to read:
http://tinyurl.com/yty82s

3:52 am

joso

Our santa owes a lot to coke, was much slimmer until coke ran a bunch of santa adds

3:52 am

grannyrose

joso, we, DH and i, prefer st nicholas...or father christmas...santa claus is so closely affiliated with a commercial company, we don't like that term.

3:52 am

sprite

oh I saw yesterday that Jo Frost, the supernanny, is doing family counselling now... I know, I know, but it is SO much fun to watch and it makes me feel like our family isn't disfunctional at all :D

3:52 am

puglet

okay Sprite will do so --thanks

3:53 am

sprite

the sad thing is, the commercial tendencies make Sinterklaas disappear and build on the Christmas rage from the US. I prefer Christmas to be a celebration of light born into the darkness. Midwinter. That is my thing.

3:54 am

grannyrose

right with you, sprite. absolutely!!

3:54 am

puglet

Yeah me too Sprite! the same with easter as well

3:54 am

sprite

absolutely, pug.

3:54 am

sprite

see... the three of us would have so much fun together :)

3:55 am

joso

I'm not very religious, like christmas as a time of good cheer and great family time. so easy to give small kids everything they want in the world, never comes again once you grow up.

3:55 am

puglet

these stores wanting every penny they can grb takes away the true spirit of all holidays I think

3:56 am

grannyrose

oh, dear. himself is but, butting. i just said leave the channel on for the bike racing. i think he is stunned. *giggle*

3:57 am

puglet

Here the shelves might have halloween-thanksgiving and x-mas all at the same time

3:57 am

sprite

I am very religious but not connected to any church. My focus is on love and light. Most holidays nowadays are way too commercial to my taste. I like a bit of quiet and meditation to go with them.

3:57 am

sprite

roflollllll rose! See, you keep on surprising him.

3:57 am

grannyrose

lolol, see i told you!!

3:58 am

sprite

and you keep on proving it is true :)

3:58 am

puglet

do any of you like football or is that a big thing there

3:58 am

grannyrose

point in fact is...i get such a thrill out of watching the races...after 9 years you would think he had cottoned on.

3:59 am

puglet

Rose is this the same race that Ruby likes too

3:59 am

grannyrose

pugs, not footy in the way you mean. we have australian rules footy here.

3:59 am

joso

football is socer everywhere except us and canada

3:59 am

sprite

in the Netherlands, socker is the big sport. And I couldn't care less, to be honest. My love is an avid watcher though. Me, I always ask: Is the grass still green? Two goals, one on each side? 22 grown men fighting over a ball? Ok, then I won't miss anything if I don't watch.

4:00 am

grannyrose

no, pugs,. ruby loves the push-bike race. this is MOTOR-cycling. way more dangerous. tonight it is in the czech republic.

4:01 am

puglet

I know very little about soccer but I seen on tv that we are trying to get a team started for us

4:02 am

puglet

so are you into football Joso

4:02 am

sprite

there's no sport that I really enjoy watching. Doing, yes. But watching... nah.

4:02 am

joso

gran, in australia if someone says football are they liklely to be thinking socer or ausie rules?

4:02 am

sprite

push-bike... LOL

4:03 am

puglet

I love watching olyms -- when its on

4:03 am

sprite

paralympics... now that I could watch for a while.

4:03 am

joso

no pug, not a sports guy, that's my little bro, scifi, books, science, games, always exerciseing my mind, to the neglect of my body

4:04 am

puglet

I never did have what it took to be good at any one sport

4:04 am

sprite

joso, that is more to my taste :)

4:04 am

joso

But I do enjoy skiing and swimming

4:05 am

sprite

I loved langlaufing when I was younger. Didn't have the nerve for skiing, but loved langlaufing.

4:06 am

joso

what the hell is langlaufing, uncotrolable laughing

4:06 am

puglet

Ive never done or tried skiing--a picture of a walrus sliding down a slope comes to mind as I think about me even doing it

4:06 am

sprite

omg... ok, will look it up... *shamefaced*

4:07 am

sprite

cross-country skiing... so sorry

4:07 am

grannyrose

roflol, pugs...you and me both

4:07 am

puglet

guys got to run--I have to take hubby to friends to go hunting....hate to leave good company--have a good one all --hugs

4:08 am

grannyrose

you also, dear friend. see you tomorrow

4:08 am

sprite

langlaufen is german, and in dutch the phrase is adopted. It is walking on skis. Long, sliding strides, very nice movement, but not going down steep slides.

4:08 am

joso

no prob sprite, it's my ignorance, my problem. nothing to be ashamed of.

4:08 am

sprite

bye pug, have a grand day *hug*

4:08 am

joso

tnx for finding a translation for me.

4:09 am

sprite

no joso, it was me being stupid and not looking up a germanism, just translating it literally into english.

4:09 am

joso

ta pug, been a slice

4:09 am

grannyrose

hey, joso.you are not alone, my friend. and thanx sprite for the translation.

4:10 am

sprite

lang = long, laufen = walking. :)

4:11 am

sprite

oh rose, btw, did you get my email with the new babble dictionary words? I was laughing all by myself over peniseed - sperm.

4:11 am

joso

really sprite this is nothing, don't get all deer startly on me, or I'll be afraid to speak freely. just a joke about laughing and my ignorance. please take it easy.

4:11 am

grannyrose

oh, yes, sprite. laughed myself silly, hun

4:12 am

sprite

*giggles and removes rabbit-in-headlight stare from face*

4:12 am

grannyrose

roflol, sprite

4:14 am

grannyrose

hey, spritey, is it possible for you to find motoGP on your tv? would be such a kick to have you and i watching the same program at the same time. and you too, joso.

4:15 am

joso

canada has so many timezones.

5:03 am

puglet

5:03 am

sprite

5:05 am

puglet

thats why I say when we pray for each other we have prayers upon us around the clock

5:05 am

grannyrose

hmmm, i think that is right, sprite

5:05 am

puglet

Rose is first on everything! lal

5:06 am

sprite

we do indeed, pug. It is a strong prayer circle. Or positive thoughts/vibes circle.

5:06 am

sprite

yep, rose is our leading lady

5:06 am

grannyrose

AND YOU HAD BETTER REMEMBER THAT!!!, pugs.

5:06 am

5:09 am

Haz1558

Hello, puglet. I don't know if I qualify as being someone new.

5:09 am

grannyrose

haz is my friend...

5:09 am

sprite

Haz is one of the original crew, puglet. An incredibly smart lady with a ver well-developed sense of language and a tongue-in-cheek sense of humour.

5:10 am

Haz1558

Who is beginning to blush.

5:10 am

sprite

Dempsey, that was it. So sorry. Not lack of interest, just brain failing. Has he become a strong and happy member of your family?

5:10 am

grannyrose

oh, yeah!! when haz lets fly, duck for cover....*giggle*

5:11 am

Haz1558

Dempsey has become quite a character. He's living in the glory of having been one of the best dogs at 'Sit and Stay' in his training class.

5:11 am

joso

rehi all

5:11 am

puglet

lol--thats saying alot if she can make you run for cover-Rose

5:11 am

puglet

reHi Joso

5:11 am

Haz1558

Oh, I'm a reformed character, rose. Since I got my diploma in diplomacy at the Henry Kissinger school, I'm sweetness and light.

5:11 am

sprite

welcome back, joso

5:12 am

puglet

What breed is he Haz

5:12 am

sprite

so it was a Kiss-inger school too, Haz?

5:12 am

Haz1558

He's a blue roan cocker spaniel, puglet. Very pretty and just over a year old so lots of energy and charm.

5:12 am

Haz1558

Respectful handshakes only and lots of bowing.

5:13 am

sprite

oh Haz, you may enjoy my new profile lists... a babble dictionary of wo4s that should be wo4, and a glossary of babble idiom.

5:13 am

Haz1558

And I have to go. Sister arrived for dinner. Bye!

5:13 am

sprite

bye Haz, have a grand time.

5:13 am

Haz1558

5:17 am

sprite

Haz is a good one. An integer one. And she has George Clooney in her closet.

5:19 am

puglet

I met another the other day named --mouse that seemed very nice

5:19 am

puglet

cant recall the first part of the name

5:19 am

grannyrose

5:21 am

sprite

yvw :) I don't think I met demouse yet. Glad you had a good talk :)

5:22 am

puglet

I think we talked about this last week but have you heard anything from moonwolf?

5:24 am

sprite

nothing still, puglet. I hope she is ok.

5:24 am

puglet

yeah me too.

5:26 am

puglet

I bet Rose has already gotten her fws--Have you Sprite

5:27 am

sprite

no, I still have 61 left. No speed at all today.

5:28 am

grannyrose

yippee!! i think the motoGP is in holland next week...maybe you will be able to see what drives your g/rose .

5:28 am

joso

i,m at 120, laboring along untill distracted by the chat

5:28 am

sprite

I will give it a try, rose, though I am afraid that is one thing we don't have in common. I can't watch people wreck themselves.

5:29 am

sprite

same here, joso, and doing some other computerstuff in the meantime as well. Very pleasant :)

5:30 am

puglet

I got you all beaten I got 142 for last place

5:30 am

puglet

I got you all beaten I got 142 for last place

5:30 am

grannyrose

sprite, i watch to see the incredible expertise these young men display. it's absolutely breath-taking.

5:31 am

sprite

you take the cake, pug :) But you have to share!

5:31 am

puglet

Rose, what got you into motor racing?

5:32 am

joso

I think 120 is behind 142

5:32 am

sprite

rose... I think I understand what you mean. It may be the ptsd acting up. For me, it is too much noise, too many people hoping for an accident and too scary for me to see those accidents happen.

5:33 am

puglet

I need 142 yet Joso

5:33 am

grannyrose

pugs, my DH...i like to share his interests. and sprite, my mistake, next weekend is the british motoGP, at silverstone.

5:33 am

joso

ah, ok you win, but you did cut out for a few hours

5:34 am

grannyrose

{{hugs}} sprite, i understand you, hun...xoxox

5:34 am

sprite

no problem, rose :)

5:35 am

puglet

actually Iam not very good at conversatin person to person --I talk more on here--beleive that? lal

5:36 am

joso

Am ok one on one, but in a crowd I am a dormouse

5:36 am

sprite

you would talk with us... I have no doubt of that. You wouldn't believe how quickly ruby and I hit it off. It didn't feel strange for more than a few minutes.

5:37 am

sprite

oh, same here, joso. Can't handle crowds. Not even the tiny ones you get on birthday visits.

5:38 am

puglet

Rose is this your last week at home or do you have two more

5:38 am

sprite

could I get help for the en5/12? I have a severe case of babble blindness.

5:38 am

grannyrose

pugs, one more week, then a review on the 3rd september.

5:39 am

joso

I can enjoy a crowd at times, but I am never the center of attention, eg both my brothers are louger than I.

5:39 am

grannyrose

sprite, cut 3 letters off huge

5:39 am

sprite

they better be careful with you, rose. Is your DIL still helping you? You have to make sure you don't make anything worse by going to work.

5:39 am

sprite

omg there is an M. Never saw it. Thanks rose!

5:40 am

grannyrose

*smiling* sprite, i am taking it very cautiously.

5:40 am

puglet

are you looking forward to returning

5:41 am

grannyrose

strangely, pugs, yes, i am. i guess i am an adrenaline junky after all.

5:41 am

joso

drop the e and m gets used again

5:41 am

sprite

ok rose :D Just worried about you.

5:42 am

puglet

well you must have some close co-workers

5:42 am

grannyrose

sprite, before this time off, wasn't aware of the passive manipulation going on.

5:42 am

sprite

it is beautiful work that you do, rose. I can imagine you miss it.

5:43 am

puglet

I always enjoyed working. Of course its nice to have a break but after awhile it get boring

5:43 am

sprite

so the rest cleared your view? That is a great thing. On4 you know, you can refuse to play that game.

5:43 am

joso

that sounds interesting, if bothersome rose

5:44 am

sprite

I have been declared 100% unable to work and have been on a disability benefit for years. I am never bored though. But yes, being part of something productive... I do miss that.

5:44 am

grannyrose

and when i do go back...am taking some work-related magazines with me. if the boss isn't around to tell me what to do next, i'm gonna sit there and read said magazines until she shows up.

5:45 am

sprite

very good, rose!

5:46 am

grannyrose

and the reading of said mags, counts as education points.

5:46 am

puglet

Its been about 6 years that Ive worked outside the home and I miss mingling with outsiders

5:46 am

puglet

and the extra money too-lal

5:47 am

gran

pa 8,50 - clue please

5:47 am

puglet

Rose do you have to chart every little thing you do as we do here

5:47 am

grannyrose

over here, one hour of reading/education counts as one 1 education point. we have to 'earn' 20 education points/year to keep our registration.

5:47 am

joso

I've always found it easier to work at work than at home, not a self starter at home but am at work

5:48 am

sprite

hi gran, past tense of little feet on the roof

5:48 am

sprite

so it is regular work, that is smart, rose

5:49 am

sprite

I would love to work from home, joso. When it comes to work, I am pretty disciplined.

5:49 am

puglet

Sprite what kind of work did you do before?

5:50 am

grannyrose

pa8, pa*, pots and pa*s, implements for cooking + a***ic acid, vinegar + short thank-you

5:50 am

sprite

I used to decide if people got an unemployment benefit and if they did, make sure everything was processed and checked.

5:51 am

puglet

so you worked at a unemployment office

5:52 am

grannyrose

yes, pugs. every minute must be documented. pain in the neck!!!

5:52 am

sprite

yes, that is it.

5:52 am

gran

Thansk and finished

5:52 am

puglet

to me that was the worse of doing the job. but I understand the need

5:53 am

grannyrose

WTG GRAN!!!!

5:53 am

joso

congrats gran

5:53 am

puglet

congrats Gran

5:53 am

sprite

wtg gran!

5:54 am

sprite

thanks for the other pa8

5:54 am

puglet

if you were still there Sprite you wouldnt have any fingers left with the way jobs are now(or is here anyway)

5:55 am

sprite

I liked the job, puglet... I always said I got paid for solving puzzles all day. It was the organisation (and 3 colleagues) that landed me in a major meltdown.

5:56 am

puglet

are jobs hard to come by there

5:57 am

sprite

depends on your age and education here. Young and well-educated can start today. Not educated but willing to work hard too. Older and/or not well educated have trouble.

5:59 am

puglet

jobs here have been short for the last few years

6:01 am

sprite

it is about time the economy goes into an upward spiral.

6:01 am

puglet

Rose, I fixed my girlfriend one of those coffee drinks and she liked it very well

6:02 am

grannyrose

as i point out to al, prospective employers...do you wa4 experience, dedication, and enthusiasm or do you want someone who has learnt out of a text book?

6:02 am

puglet

Has the economy been bad there too Sprite

6:02 am

sprite

exactly, rose

6:02 am

sprite

yes, quite bad, pug

6:03 am

joso

not too bad here, bit of a dip but not much

6:03 am

sprite

and so many young people are just not dedicated. They wa4 everything to be fun and suited to their desires... they don't see things through when they hit a tough spiel.

6:04 am

puglet

When I worked at the factories there were people with high education that was doing the same job as I because they couldnt find jobs

6:05 am

rubyfoo

baCK FROM LUNCH WITH MR. NASTY.

6:05 am

rubyfoo

baCK FROM LUNCH WITH MR. NASTY.

6:05 am

puglet

I got a neighbor that his factory closed and he was a big wheel in it and he couldnt find a job due to too much education and experence

6:05 am

rubyfoo

wEHAVE A FIGHT EVERY TIME i ASK HIM (NICELY) TO PUT ON HIS SEATBELT

6:06 am

puglet

HI YA RUBY!

6:06 am

rubyfoo

whoops, sorry for shouting

6:06 am

sprite

welcome back, ruby. Sorry it was bad.

6:06 am

grannyrose

oh, yeah, pugs. years ago, i warned my immediate superior, to be polite to the ward orderlies. she would never listen...most of them were final year medical students or lawyers. for goodness sakes!!!

6:06 am

grannyrose

{{ruby}} xoxoxox

6:06 am

sprite

I wouldn't ask him anymore, then, ruby. When he drives alone, he doesn't wear it either... not worth the fight.

6:06 am

rubyfoo

lunch was OK (the place on the lake where we went ith you,Sprite), but he is just such a jerk

6:07 am

sprite

omg yes rose... being polite to your people is so important.

6:07 am

rubyfoo

I wouldn't care except for the "ding ding ding" it makes (which he doesn't hear)

6:08 am

puglet

Ruby --My dh might be a twin to yours-lal

6:08 am

sprite

aw sweetie... he is not a jerk... but he does act like one, that is for sure.

6:08 am

grannyrose

sprite!! what is it about some nurses which makes them incapable of recognising others achievements??

6:08 am

rubyfoo

but yours is much younger, pugs!

6:08 am

sprite

oh I loved that place, ruby. The best lunch I had in ages. And such nice people.

6:09 am

sprite

I really have no idea, rose! Must be some power thing. Some people can't handle that.

6:09 am

puglet

maybe Ruby--that just means many more years to come of it-lal

6:09 am

joso

it's amazing what a little bit of power does to some people

6:10 am

rubyfoo

6:10 am

sprite

exactly, joso

6:10 am

sprite

aw pug... if it is unbearable, make sure you kick him out before he gets too old for that.

6:10 am

puglet

Hes 68 and act 5 with fits

6:10 am

rubyfoo

why isn't le**to a word?

6:11 am

grannyrose

*giggle* joso. the same nurse could not work out, when she gave me the worst behaved patients on her shift, they became the best behaved on mine.

6:11 am

rubyfoo

that's funny, rose

6:11 am

rubyfoo

may I have stats and/or a clue for the 9, pls

6:12 am

puglet

there are just some people that should not be nurses or whatever

6:12 am

sprite

pa9, past tense, like when you have a floral print allover.

6:12 am

rubyfoo

ty, sprite

6:12 am

grannyrose

ruby, past tense wo4, pa9, repetitive sequence, past tense

6:13 am

sprite

lol rose... that figures. A little bit of respect and humour goes a long way. I was so very happy with the nurses when Rob was in hospital. So friendly and helpful and respectful. Makes all the difference.

6:14 am

rubyfoo

when I was hospitalized with C and had private-uty nurses, I had to fire some, even in my muddled state for handling me too roughy

6:14 am

puglet

we had a young lady that had tried to kill herself(she was in her 40's) she couldnt feed herself so we did but a new cna we hired ,I caught sitting in her room eating the patient's food--now how awful is that

6:15 am

grannyrose

sprite, to my way of thinking, if a cuppa cha and pain-killers help a patient to sleep, well, bring them on. the other nurse would never extend herself.

6:15 am

sprite

omg pug... that is sick.

6:15 am

puglet

thats just one of many things I seen going on in the home

6:15 am

sprite

you understand how it is to be a patient, rose, and you care. The other nurse apparently does neither.

6:16 am

grannyrose

for goodness sake, pugs...that's just appalling.

6:16 am

sprite

I hope that cna was fired

6:16 am

puglet

No she wasent--can you believe that

6:17 am

sprite

no, that is hard to believe indeed. It shows how totally unfit she is for this job.

6:17 am

puglet

I went to that room 3 times before turning her in to make sure I was seeing what I saw

6:17 am

grannyrose

pugs, some care facilities close ranks. more's the pity!!!

6:17 am

sprite

rose, could you help me with la7/28? Brain is not doing its thing today.

6:17 am

joso

I don't think power corrupts, I think it reveils a persons true nature. not all with power go bad, their are your lincons, ghandis, washingtons, and mandela

6:18 am

rubyfoo

la7 turn on the portable light, sprite

6:18 am

grannyrose

sprite, an appliance to provide light, before electricity

6:19 am

sprite

omg... how blind can one be. Thank you both very much.

6:20 am

grannyrose

lol...yay sprite

6:20 am

rubyfoo

sprite needed the portable light

6:20 am

sprite

very true, joso. It is just like alcohol. It brings out what is otherwise hidden beneath the surface.

6:20 am

puglet

well dear friends Iam heading down to the campgrounds to have coffee with my girlfriend so I hope to catch you all tomorrow. hugs all around!

6:21 am

sprite

lol ruby, exactly

6:21 am

grannyrose

hey, they don't call me flo nightingale for nothing...lolol

6:21 am

rubyfoo

not even half but falling asleep

6:21 am

sprite

enjoy, puglet! *hugs*

6:21 am

rubyfoo

see you kids la***

6:21 am

sprite

ah, time for a nice nap then, ruby. Have a good one. I am thinking of you both

6:21 am

rubyfoo

{{pugs}} et al

6:21 am

joso

we had a prime minster that power revield he was totaly batsh*t

6:21 am

rubyfoo

{{sprite and rose}} and even joso!

6:22 am

sprite

*sigh* my back is killing me today and my family is too busy to make me something to eat.

6:22 am

sprite

how frustrating, joso.

6:22 am

joso

bye ruby, sleep well

6:23 am

rubyfoo

*woof*

6:28 am

grannyrose

sprite, my poor darling. could you possibly log into 'vitacost' site, in the us of a. they have magnesium malate, 1250mg tablets, a bottle of 180 tablets for about $9 american, plus postage. i am thinking this would help you sooo much.

6:29 am

sprite

magnesium malate? Am gonna see if they have that here as well, hold on.

6:29 am

grannyrose

6:30 am

grannyrose

since i started on it, back pain an absolute minimum.

6:31 am

sprite

yes, easily obtainable here. Thanks rose, am gonna buy it tomorrow and get myself started on it. How much do you advice?

6:32 am

grannyrose

same magnesium fixed mother mac's night-cramps almost completely gone, and my mother's rheumatica also down to a minimum.

6:33 am

sprite

oh! I have often cramp in my leg too. Thanks so much, rose. Just read what it does etc and looks like an absolute must for me.

6:33 am

grannyrose

sprite, take three tabs of 1250mgs at night, and another 1 in the morning if back pain obvious then.

6:34 am

sprite

perfect. All at night because it is best absorbed by the body when you sleep?

6:35 am

grannyrose

yes, love. and the 1 in the morning is quickly absorbed, if you need it.

6:36 am

hurshy

BUT you have to wait 15 minutes for full potency

6:36 am

hurshy

AND you shouldn't go in swimming after for what, an hour?

6:36 am

sprite

very good. Am gonna do that. Gonna take good care of myself, even with food supplements.

6:36 am

hurshy

yeah, a good hour

6:37 am

grannyrose

oh, my, gosh, the lead in motoGP has changed 3 times in the last minute.

6:37 am

sprite

6:39 am

MLFAN17

hi mlfan

6:39 am

MLFAN17

first column bottom O stats please?

6:39 am

MLFAN17

hi sprite

6:39 am

grannyrose

yeah, hurshy. magnesium quiets excited muscles....which is why sprite and i have muscular pain in the am also. and heavy exercise should be avoided for a few hours, or else the beneficial effects of the magnesium is lost.

6:39 am

sprite

I love the Princess Bride. Oh, my daughter hasn't seen Bridget Jones's diary yet :D

6:40 am

hurshy

ok so it IS relevant.

sprite

I hope you sleep well, joso *hug*

7:12 am

grannyrose

hey, sprite...a small victory, surely.

7:13 am

sprite

yeah... but you know... when I have to beg for it, I actually don't want it anymore. I mean, jeezzz... I have to ask each and every time I need something... while they all know I can't do it myself. So frustrating.

7:13 am

grannyrose

jo\so...the last few hours are so precious...hope you get the max from them, mate.

7:15 am

grannyrose

sprite, remember what i said about a deep breath and letting it out slowly? now is the time, dear.

7:16 am

sprite

:) Thanks, rose. Yeah. I might go back to back after finding my last few words. Let them go about their business and keep low profile.

7:17 am

grannyrose

sprite, dear, be gracious at all times....

7:17 am

sprite

that is a beautiful guideline

7:18 am

grannyrose

*smiling at you* hang in there, dear. you will win!!!

7:19 am

sprite

:) I can't fail with such support, rose. Thanks for being there!

7:21 am

*hugs* We make a strong team.

Oh, Molly. lol

8:46 am

jmcnrick

apparently. . . i got a fb message yesterday morning and i am still waiting to hear he got off alright. . .

8:46 am

uusue2

seems like renap should be a word. My first nap wasn't long enough, so I had to renap.

8:46 am

hego

I agree

8:46 am

jmcnrick

his gf works for an ngo that sent her there for 2 weeks and he joined her for 10 more days

8:47 am

hego

I'm sure he will be fine.

8:47 am

jmcnrick

he has always wa**ed to go to Veitnam. . .we tried once but the travel agency screwed it up. . .

8:47 am

jmcnrick

i often renap myself

8:47 am

hego

If he got on the plane, he can't text.

8:47 am

jmcnrick

me too hego but you know how it is once you start fretting. . .

8:48 am

hego

oh yes!

8:48 am

jmcnrick

he supposedly got on it at 10 pm last night our time to fly to Vietnam from Korea. . . it can't be that long of a flight!!

8:48 am

jmcnrick

once i hear from him i will be able to forget about him until he comes home. . .

8:49 am

hego

Bet he forgot all about you. We just went through this.

8:50 am

jmcnrick

no doubt. . .

8:50 am

hego

They get there and get involved.

8:50 am

jmcnrick

but he is usually pretty good. . . i am guessing happy reunion with gf then exhaustion. . . i am sure i will hear from him today. . .

8:50 am

jmcnrick

would like to hear before meeting so i won't be so focused on him that i can't center. . . oh well. . . i am off to said meeting. . . bbl

Hi Welki!

9:19 am

Dorens

hego, ru is looking forward to your visit

9:19 am

hego

Hi Dorens, why Baltimore?

9:20 am

hego

I am anxious to see him too, Dorens.

9:20 am

Dorens

grandkids!!! just back from two weeks in Scandinavia and I have returned their dog

9:20 am

hego

You folks get around. lol

9:22 am

Dorens

not us... they. My son travels to various universities to speak and work with grad students. He was in Norway this time, then a bit in Copenhagen. Copenhagen wants him back next year.. he's already committed to Zurich next summer

9:22 am

kje

hi dorens... have some crabs for me... 1/2 dozen jumbo steamed with old bay should do it

9:22 am

Dorens

so it's the grandkids who were jst back, not me

9:23 am

hego

very nice

9:23 am

Dorens

going tubing this afternoon kj don't know about crabs there

9:23 am

kje

where are you tubing?

9:24 am

kje

cuz I bet I can find crabs nearby - lol

9:24 am

Dorens

dunno. son is downstairs right now... kids don't know- somewhere next door to a cider mill

9:25 am

Dorens

maryland state fair is in timonium today... but that is jst too much hullabaloo

9:26 am

kje

it actually is not that good... my advice would be to skip it unless the kids just really want to go

9:27 am

Dorens

the fair? trust me we are skipping it in favor of tubing. grandma is lazy and wants pure relaxation

9:28 am

kje

good decision

9:29 am

kje

but do get some crabs! they are at their peak in august when they have gotten nice and fat all summer!

9:29 am

Dorens

ok. will insist on crabs!!

9:30 am

kje

can you tell I'm having a craving....

9:30 am

Dorens

they owe me whatever i want after watching their 13 year old dog for 2 1/2 weeks -- my house stinks!!!

9:30 am

Dorens

get thee to fisherman's wharf!

9:30 am

kje

not the same at all... you must have MD blue crabs with old bay to understand

9:31 am

Dorens

i do know. i have. just figured it was at least seafood. will send you some old bay

9:31 am

Dorens

but the blue crabs won't make it

9:31 am

kje

my fave's (though a bit of a drive) are at Cantler's in Annapolis

9:32 am

kje

but Annapolis is a nice place to visit

9:32 am

kje

def get the jumbos... more expensive, but much much more meat for the effort

9:32 am

Dorens

will get there someday i'm sure.

9:32 am

Dorens

ok, will do

9:32 am

kje

I have old bay in the cupboard... maybe it is time to make some crab cakes

9:33 am

Dorens

that sounds like a great idea

9:33 am

kje

otherwise, Bo Brooks is right there in town... but they were better when they were in a dive in the hood... now that they are down in Canton, they seem less authentic

9:34 am

Dorens

we had some someplace at the inner harbor in the spring and they were good

9:34 am

kje

ah... Phillips?

9:35 am

Dorens

also have had at ocean city.. very fresh, and by the sea they just seem better

9:35 am

Dorens

yup, phillips.. nice place

9:35 am

kje

we must get you to real baltimore!lol

9:36 am

Dorens

ok. that was convenient to the aquarium tho, and the kids enjoyed

9:36 am

kje

9:36 am

Dorens

9:57 am

Aloyisius

hego

I was a little sceptical, but, not bad.

9:57 am

Judi

Pffth. Black bananas are good for compost.

9:58 am

rururocks

just avoid anything with osama sauce and you're fine :D

9:58 am

hego

The food was simple, but good and of good quality.

9:58 am

Dorens

10:05 am

rururocks

I guess not with school and all

10:05 am

Judi

Hmm. I'd have to find a place to park my camel. And I would have to sit in the non-hookah section.

10:05 am

Dorens

Dorens

2:09 pm

MollyL

She's very efficient Ru. She takes very few breaks and those breaks are timed. A walking Puritan ethic.

2:09 pm

Jillyjill

LOL, boy do I have Molly fooled!

2:10 pm

harpjane

2:17 pm

Jillyjill

<-----reminds ruru he's talking to a nurse....ROFL

2:17 pm

MollyL

See, this is why I don't buy that "he's really just a quiet, shy guy. Nothing like he is in chat." Right.

2:18 pm

Jillyjill

Alter ego? Jekyl and Hyde?

2:18 pm

rururocks

I am so very shy and retiring.. just ask Doren :D

2:18 pm

rururocks

2:18 pm

rururocks

Don't ask KJE.. though

2:18 pm

MollyL

Yeah, well let's just say that Jill isn't the only one who has people fooled. : P

2:21 pm

Jillyjill

2:21 pm

MollyL

See? Jill isn't really a responsible, nurse, church lady type. She's a 16 year old skateboard dude who says things like "true dat" and "in da house".

2:22 pm

rururocks

2:22 pm

rururocks

2:26 pm

harpjane

Just for variety, I think today I'll go after the letters that have prime numbers. So I'll start with J (3), then the center E, then maybe the C's.

2:56 pm

Kaplan the Magne

hello btw

2:57 pm

72 Temple Owl

hi kap

2:57 pm

MollyL

Oy, speak to me not of backs. I threw mine out yesterday and I am walking like Frankenstein. What's up with your back, Kap?

2:58 pm

harpjane

Just for fun, I put a yellow jacket in the paper shredder.

2:58 pm

MollyL

*Wonders if Harp pulled the wings off of flies as a child*

2:58 pm

72 Temple Owl

oy. i went to a shredder event and i was number 200. beofre it even began.

2:58 pm

Kaplan the Magne

it's been an ongoing problem and I am getting desperate

2:59 pm

Kaplan the Magne

you know people who torture insects grow up to be serial killers?

2:59 pm

MollyL

What kind of surgery do they want to do?

2:59 pm

phandmd

did you try icing your back, Molly?

2:59 pm

72 Temple Owl

i left. somehow i eel the need to get stuff shredded before i go away. though there are events when i return

2:59 pm

harpjane

What exactly IS a shredder event, and I'm sorry the yellow jacket got in before you did!

3:00 pm

MollyL

Oh Phan, I have run the whole gamut. Heat, emu cream, aspirin. It's slowly getting better.

3:00 pm

MollyL

TO, shredders are not that expensive. And makes it worth it not to have to stand in line to shred.

3:00 pm

hego

Emu cream!?!!

3:00 pm

Kaplan the Magne

I don't know. I have done PT, chiropractic, ice, heat, tai chi, acupuncture and now I am pretty sure it's a nerve problem and I don't know why no one ordered an MRI and I think I need to go back to western medicine

3:00 pm

hego

I didn't even know they gave milk.

3:00 pm

Kaplan the Magne

I love my paper shredder

3:01 pm

MollyL

Yep, it's the Australian unscented answer to Ben Gay.

3:01 pm

Kaplan the Magne

it is so therapeutic

3:01 pm

phandmd

You didn't say you tried ice. usually you should ice first 24 hours and then heat. of course it is 20 on, 20 off. also, ibuprofen usually does me good. I highly recommend the ice if you haven't tried it yet.

3:01 pm

Kaplan the Magne

I love icy hot and ben-gay but I have been impaired for a while and I think it is aging me

3:01 pm

harpjane

We have an emu ranch in my town. The oil from rendered emus is very therapeutic.

3:02 pm

MollyL

Yes, ice the first 24, but I'm past that now.

3:02 pm

phandmd

being in chronic pain will age you.

3:02 pm

Kaplan the Magne

i am at this point ready to go under the knife.

3:02 pm

72 Temple Owl

i don't have trash so i ather and burn my items or take them out to a commerical shredding event

3:02 pm

MollyL

And make you tired.

3:02 pm

phandmd

ok good, Molly

3:02 pm

hego

Poor emus.

3:03 pm

72 Temple Owl

poor kap.

3:03 pm

harpjane

poor yellow jacket

3:03 pm

MollyL

Poor pitiful Pearl.

3:03 pm

Kaplan the Magne

It does. it did it to my father and it is doing it to me. and my kids hate it. just brought my youngest to college.

3:03 pm

72 Temple Owl

chronic pain is aging.

3:03 pm

hego

Yes, i know how Kap feels. Chronic pain is the pits.

3:03 pm

Kaplan the Magne

the yellow jacket and I are going into the shredder

3:04 pm

MollyL

You could always develop a nasty pain killer addiction.

3:04 pm

Kaplan the Magne

I have such jewish guilt because when I was younger I was impatient with my parents and now my kids are impatient with me.

3:04 pm

hego

no guilt Kap, that's life.

3:05 pm

72 Temple Owl

yes, we all do that to some degree. life lessons.

3:05 pm

Kaplan the Magne

Oh, true. guilt and life and yellow jackets and sugar packets

3:05 pm

harpjane

4:47 pm

there is something to be said for purpose made devices, no need to sort through 57 functions to do what you want

4:48 pm

puglet

its almost 90 here where I sit and we've had no rain for 2 weeks or more and its to be hot for at least this whole week

4:48 pm

4:48 pm

it's about 70 with a breeze here....sunny....

4:49 pm

the pump is above ground with a bladder tank if that is understandable to you

4:49 pm

puglet

we had to replace the bladder tank too

4:49 pm

crosshair

i am losing it.got 100 words in before i even saw the hawaiian goose:/

4:49 pm

joso

my mom used to say if it had more than an on/off switch it was too complicated, was leary of the tv

4:49 pm

crosshair

i understand it,puglet,very expensive

4:50 pm

puglet

Oh Pen I want your weather!I hate hot weather

4:50 pm

we had that set up in a home we had in the 70,s. was a total pain in the arse

4:51 pm

puglet

4:51 pm

penquis

it's been like that or a little warmer for the last two weeks....

4:52 pm

puglet

HOW LUCKY!

4:52 pm

crosshair

such a pain that my da spent 2200 dollars drilling a well,setting a jet pump down the hole plumbing it all up..problem was he never took into consideration our old plumbing that suddenly had to go from 40-65 psi to 165 psi!! lol.we blew every elbow and t-joint in the place!

4:52 pm

penquis

yes, best weather of the summer...

4:53 pm

puglet

its so hot I cant even get into the football game either-lol

4:54 pm

penquis

bummer

4:54 pm

puglet

Oh Crossy how awful--and when something like that goes bad it always picks the worse of times

4:54 pm

crosshair

of course it does.murphy's law #1 anything that can happen,will.

4:55 pm

puglet

5:18 pm

puglet

Ive never seen that

5:18 pm

crosshair

breaking bad is on my to watch list.i hear people talking about it,but have yet to see it

5:18 pm

MollyL

*Too early for popcorn and snacks. We just finished dinner.*

5:19 pm

joso

you are in for a treat crossy

5:19 pm

Soodle

Crossly. I envy anybody who has yet to watch it. It's sublime.

5:19 pm

crosshair

well,i have netflix all set up now with my smart hdtv.so once i am done my current addiction,i will give it a look see

5:19 pm

MollyL

My son just sent me an interesting article about the similarities between the real Heisenberg and Walter White.

5:20 pm

MollyL

Breaking Bad is a very dark show. Just a heads up for people who are not into that kind of thing.

5:20 pm

Soodle

There's a real Heisenberg?????

5:21 pm

puglet

what network shows it

5:21 pm

MollyL

Yes, he was a German physicist.

5:21 pm

joso

oh yes soodle, a highly respected scientist, came up withe the uncertainty principle

5:22 pm

joso

just the sort of guy walt would admire before his moral decent

5:23 pm

joso

a cable network pug, amc?

5:23 pm

crosshair

thank god/allah/budda/the holy rooster i no longer have to bleed my wallet dry for cable programming! the hdtv was 700 dollars,netflix is 8 dollars a month the money saved by having no cable will pay for both in just under 10 months:)

5:24 pm

MollyL

Most of these shows base character names and nicknames on real life people. LOST was full of that.

5:25 pm

Soodle

Wow! I didn't know that.

5:25 pm

puglet

wow Crossy thats a big diff. I got direct it runs about 90 a month

5:26 pm

crosshair

yes,puglet,my basic plus the next tier up to get discovery/amc history and the like ran me 90 a month

5:26 pm

crosshair

so,around 1200 a year for 4 channels and the rest crap

5:27 pm

Soodle

Nobody I know watches BB. It's extremely frustrating, as I'm aching to chat about it. Clearly, I associate with Philistines. :-)

5:27 pm

5:31 pm

Soodle

You can say that again, Crossy. :-)

5:32 pm

MollyL

I wouldn't be watching Breaking Bad if my kids had not forced me into it. That kind of show is usually not something I will pursue on my own.

5:32 pm

crosshair

othewise soodles woul have 3 news stations and 54 football stations:))

5:33 pm

puglet

5:33 pm

MollyL

Is Irish television really that bland?

5:34 pm

crosshair

5:34 pm

What delights me about Netflix is that you can binge view or pace yourself, depending on the time available to you.

9:13 pm

72 Temple Owl

red will be my next. unless i find something striking like those black with zebra inlay

9:15 pm

welki

depending on how much you can spend, you can order custom colors/inlays with heel and toe (and height, leather) options from the alberta boot company - i think around $300 for a simple pair

9:15 pm

welki

a lot of money, but they last forever

9:16 pm

72 Temple Owl

i love my python inlays

9:17 pm

72 Temple Owl

and i really should get some vinyl ankles for outdoor festivals in the heat and rain. though tthe forecast is 75 or so

9:17 pm

welki

*looking at site* python will run you about $500

9:19 pm

9:53 pm

joso

la7-32, past tense of la5-10

10:18 pm

flosey

great beginnings, finally eh stid

10:19 pm

flosey

have they given you a date when you can move in?

10:19 pm

stidmama

indeed, yes, flosey! AND I am starting to make plans to bring the garden back to life next year. We'll remake beds and bring in better irrigation. Since almost nothing remains of ornamentals or veggies at this point it will be easy to redo.

10:20 pm

stidmama

No, Optimistically before the new year, Realistically February or March. Pessimistically... LOL

10:20 pm

flosey

another garden to look forward to working on

10:20 pm

stidmama

:-) I have lots more to post about the house, but for the next two days I am trying to focus more on getting this job interview done.

10:21 pm

flosey

good luck with the job interview stid, you can wow them

10:21 pm

stidmama

I have so many ideas for the garden! LOL this year we didn't get any home-grown cukes, beans or celery, and I miss those little things. So I am determined that next year I will be ready as soon as it is safe to plant!

10:22 pm

grannyrose

aha, so this is where you go to my lovely, when i'm alone in my bed? *giggle*

10:22 pm

stidmama

Thanks flosey -- I think I will at least make a positive impression. They already know I haven't had a permanent job yet, so something in my other experiences and training has made them think I am a good candidate. I know I am -- all I ...

10:22 pm

stidmama

ooops. You spotted me, GR!

10:22 pm

grannyrose

and hello to flosey, too

10:23 pm

flosey

hiya rose

10:23 pm

stidmama

you have a sticky beak here, too, apparently!!!

10:23 pm

stidmama

I found the PERFECT front door, saanich, would fit that door knocker you gave me beautifully. If I land this job, I will get the door. :-)

10:24 pm

stidmama

flosey, your grandson is adorable with the choclit smeared all over him -- I hope he didn't get it all over your car?

10:24 pm

flosey

thanks stid, what a rascal - but he does carry his treats around for a while before enjoying them

10:25 pm

flosey

I think his mom had the car stopped in a hurry to clean him up

10:26 pm

grannyrose

maybe he thought he could absorb it through his skin?

10:27 pm

flosey

lol rose, that's just getting fat unnecessarily! if I'm going to gain a few ounces while absorbing chocolate, I'm going to savour every bit

10:28 pm

saanichcat

Stid, I plan to knock on That Door with that door knocker,, don't you worry! Anyway, if it's perfect, buy it, and out off something lse. It is adoorway to your House!

10:28 pm

flosey

perhaps now he has learned, when it's very warm outside, chocolate doesn't last

10:29 pm

saanichcat

please ecuse garbled language

10:30 pm

flosey

true saan, a front door should make a statement about the people inside (our door doesn't, just a plain door - but that's a good thought when you're starting over

10:31 pm

saanichcat

don't know what's wrong, too tired I think. But Stid, the Front Door is a special place.

10:31 pm

flosey

actually we left a gorgeous door knocker back in TO - the people buying the house said that was what sold it

10:31 pm

rururocks

Nothing like nice knockers.

10:32 pm
