How are you today Sprite
3:01 am
grannyrose

pugs, i have a couple. every now and again they give a little twinge, otherwise i'm okay with them.
3:02 am
sprite

will do that for sure, rose. Must. Let. Go. Argh, also had a fight with my husband later on... I was feeling so bad about it all and was worrying, and all he wanted to say about it was: no reason to put energy in this. Men...!
3:02 am
puglet

In your bad leg Rose
3:03 am
sprite

pug, am sad and stressed... had to tell my son yesterday he had to leave home. He hit his sister, she has a black spot over her nose. He thinks this is perfectly ok.
3:03 am
grannyrose

*giggle* give him a hug, sprite. and tell him.it's okay dear.
3:04 am
grannyrose

pugs, both legs, and the last ti4 i looked i had old lady's ankles...lots of surface ve4s. :(
3:04 am
puglet

3:05 am
sprite

dem dem dem... I should be all alone here, I hear a sound... and there Tim is, sleeping in his own dem bed. he refuses to leave.
3:05 am

puglet

3:11 am
grannyrose

sprite, just what did i tell you?
3:12 am
grannyrose

pugs, if Tim is there...all is good. it means he has accepted the rules set down by sprite.
3:13 am
puglet

she said he refuses to leave
3:15 am
sprite

back... called my husband, who let him back in at 3 am this morning
3:16 am
sprite

without telling me, and then went canoeing all day long.
3:16 am
grannyrose

*sigh* and rolls eyes...husbands...
3:16 am
sprite

no he has not, rose. He has been let back in without the slightest discussion. Am all alone in this.
3:17 am
puglet

Is your hubby for you or against you
3:17 am
sprite

right now it feels like against me, pug, though I think he isn't... just not FOR me and not for protecting Caya.
3:18 am
sprite

ok, am not gonna fill the whole chog with my issues... I am in my room and I have my medication, so I will hole up here today.
3:19 am
grannyrose

good grief!! okay, sweetie. stand firm. tomorrow you open the floor for discussion with Tim.
3:19 am
puglet

ahh Sprite that makes it so rough for you . Its hard to enforce anything without back up
3:20 am
Soodle

Why hole up, Sprite? Are you frightened of him?
3:22 am
sprite

Soodle: this triggers my ptsd something fierce. So no, not directly scared of him. But scared, yes.
3:23 am
puglet

sending out prayers that He will put his protective arms about you since we cant be there.
3:23 am
sprite

thanks pug, and rose and Soodle. It is good to feel I am not alone.
3:23 am
Soodle

Oh you poor thing. I'd love to give him a good shaking!
3:24 am
sprite

I'd love for you to do that too!
3:25 am
sprite

so... this would have been a perfect day for a 700 words grid for me. Still, 100+ is slightly better than the mini grids of earlier this week.
3:25 am
puglet

Sprite maybe you should talk to your hubby and get him to stand with you against your son. For it sounds like he has no respect for women
3:26 am
puglet

your son that is
3:26 am
sprite

not for men either, I am afraid.
3:27 am
puglet

do you know why he has so much bottled up anger
3:27 am
Soodle

What age is he now , Sprite?
3:27 am
sprite

no idea.
3:27 am
sprite

17, Soodle. 17 and a half, and counting.
3:28 am
puglet

where is or Mama Rose? I can just hear the gears churning in that smart brain of hers-lol
3:29 am
grannyrose

hmm. pugs has a point. hubby, did promise forsaking all others, right? now you call him on it, hun.
3:30 am
sprite

I sure will. Just called him, told him he should not have let him in and should certainly have woken me up before even considering it. He says you can't let your child out on the street. I said according to him we CAN let a child live in fear at home because her brother might start hitting or kicking again.
3:31 am
sprite

and what did the man say to that? "Yeah, we will have to talk to Tim about that." So what did we do yesterday? Warm up air?
3:31 am
sprite

uh-oh, there I go. Let's change the subject, dear friends. This won't be solved today. The grid, however, will. I promise.
3:32 am
puglet

Its good for you to release it Sprite and I dont mind at all that you do
3:33 am
sprite

thanks, dear pug. But I did release, and vent, so it is all ok.
3:34 am
puglet

I really hope that you dont let them push you to the point that you harm yourself
3:34 am
Soodle

Poor Sprite. I really feel for you.
3:34 am
sprite

I won't, except by staying in my room today. Don't worry. I won't do anything dramatic.
3:35 am
sprite

nothing like babble friends to make me feel supported :)
3:35 am
puglet

well then a beautiful day of rest!
3:36 am
sprite

how are all of you doing today?
3:37 am
puglet

we finely got rain yesterday(more like a storm) had no electric for a few hours.But it broke this heat wave we were having and more rain for today
3:38 am
sprite

oh how lovely, pug. You were so ready for that. Might even be worth being out of electric for a bit.
3:38 am
puglet

oh and Gradyn's little party went very well.Though he has gotten in trouble at school a few times for talking
3:39 am
puglet

I asked him, why, and he said Nanny they talked to me first-lol
3:39 am
sprite

hehehe good for Gradyn. A good sign. A bit of talking sounds just like an energetic and enthusiastic boy.
3:39 am
grannyrose

talking, schmalking...not an issue..lol, sprite
3:39 am
sprite

ah bless his heart
3:40 am
grannyrose

sorry, pugs...
3:40 am
sprite

3:40 am
grannyrose

3:40 am
puglet

for what dear
3:42 am
grannyrose

*giggle* i said sprite when i meant pugs...oh dear...i think the bourbon has caught up with me...
3:43 am
puglet

His mother didnt call him or send a card or anything and hasent seen him for over 2 months now
3:44 am
sprite

that must have hurt him, pug, but in the long run it may be best. It is definitely better than him having to stay with her.
3:44 am
puglet

Rose are you not on meds? And should you mixed those with those drinks?:0
3:45 am
sprite

lol rose... sure, blame the drink. Senior moments.... brain farts ;)
3:45 am
puglet

I dont think he really cares to tell the truth
3:46 am
sprite

he does, pug. On some level he needs his mother. Or, in his case, he needs a mother. And being rejected always hurts.
3:47 am
grannyrose

pugs, relax, sweetie,don is here. and am so totally relaxed...feels good for a change.
3:47 am
puglet

His dad is getting married here in Oct. And Gradyn really likes this girl(he calls her his stepmom already)and she is very good to him. I thanked her for being so to him.
3:47 am

3:56 am
grannyrose

3:56 am
puglet

3:57 am
grannyrose

oh, lord...you two are amazing...laughing my head off here.
3:57 am

3:58 am
grannyrose

3:58 am
puglet

Just what color is your tutu anyway Rose
3:58 am
sprite

for you. No way you can tutu your way there. But he can. And you can watch.
3:59 am
sprite

3:59 am
puglet

3:59 am
grannyrose

4:07 am
grannyrose

4:07 am
sprite

first piano concerto by Tchaikovsky, right now. But it is YouTube playing. I am out of practise.
4:08 am
grannyrose

yes, pugs...exactly...the vicar is played by dawn french...the village was not expecting a female vicar.
4:08 am
puglet

I like to jam out on music when Iam cleaning! Loud enough that the walls vibrates--lol
4:09 am
puglet

does that bother you Rose?
4:09 am
zoozzoom

I always love the joke ,the vicar of dibley does on, Alice at the end..always hilarious!
4:09 am
grannyrose

lol,puigs, same here...except himself used to come in,. and say...what is that weird sound??
4:10 am
grannyrose

{{zooz}} hello mate
4:10 am
zoozzoom

Hello :-)
4:10 am
puglet

Hi zoom--did you get the cat problem fixed
4:10 am
grannyrose

pugs, we now have a female vicar...she the most amazing person.
4:11 am
sprite

fantaisie impromptu 4 , chopin, played by nikita magaloff. Now that is so so beautiful.
4:11 am
zoozzoom

I squirt them with water everytime i see them trying to enter the garden..no more problems since...but it can be time consuming.
4:11 am
sprite

hiya zooz *hug*
4:11 am
puglet

some people dont think a woman should hold places like that in church so I was just asking
4:11 am
grannyrose

zooz, our possum problem is a thing of the past....how are the cats reacting?
4:12 am
zoozzoom

It is a comedy, Pugs..youtube it..it is a great laugh.
4:12 am
grannyrose

zooz,so you didn't manage to find the chemicals?
4:13 am
zoozzoom

They have not had chance to come into my garden for me to find out, Rose..lol...not sure if they enter at night as i can not see..too dark teehee.
4:14 am
grannyrose

okay.....but i have to tell you, that since we have used the spray.....many peaceful nights.
4:14 am
zoozzoom

Yes i have sprayed it around the base of the tree..and along both fences...but not near the wall..which is the main problem.as the chemical is bad for the birds too.
4:17 am
grannyrose

fingers crossed...maybe if 2 avenues are closed to them...the cats will also leave the 3rd unsued
4:18 am
zoozzoom

True, Rose..no problems since..and i don't want to harm the cats either...so it is working out well so far.
4:18 am
grannyrose

hmmm. maybe the birds will use other areas, instead of the wall??
4:19 am
zoozzoom

My garden is not that big, Rose, The wall is the only place where the tree is..and where i can place the bird seed feeder & fat balls.
4:20 am
puglet

do you have squirrels that comes to feed too Zoom
4:20 am
zoozzoom

I could try & place the feeders higher up the tree i suppose..but it would mean i need a ladder each time to re-fill lol
4:21 am
puglet

cats can climb pretty high
4:21 am
grannyrose

roflol...and the problem is, zooz??
4:21 am
zoozzoom

No not where i live , Pugs. We do have beautiful red squirrels here but they stay in the forest areas.
4:22 am
grannyrose

nah, zooz...my guess is that the birds will find other ways to access the feeder.
4:22 am
zoozzoom

I am to old to be climbing a ladder and breaking my neck is not a great thing to be looking forward to, Rose LOL
4:23 am
puglet

well Zoom you could put a pulley on the rope to the feeder and take it up or down that way instead of climbing a ladder everytime
4:23 am
puglet

kind of like a flagpole rigging
4:24 am
zoozzoom

Why can't the cats just not be the kill the bird type of cats *Sigh*
4:24 am
grannyrose

oh, for goodness sake...zooz, you are spring chicken....climb that ladder
4:24 am
zoozzoom

LOL...Thanks ,Rose.
4:25 am
puglet

dont lissen to her Zoom she just wants company in her own downfall-lol
4:25 am
grannyrose

zooz, cats will always kill birds...what you are doing is wonderful...
4:26 am
grannyrose

*snorts into glass*...hey pugs,,,whose side are you on???
4:26 am
puglet

what? fattening the birds to feed the cats?
4:27 am
sprite

4:27 am
zoozzoom

The neigbour on the other side of where i live, Keep her cats in a massive caged garden..so nice to see they are being responsible for their cats.

4:28 am

4:28 am

4:28 am
grannyrose

ROFLOL...sprite...
4:28 am
zoozzoom

4:29 am
sprite

pug has such a lovely sense of humour
4:29 am
zoozzoom

Go for it, Rose!
4:29 am
grannyrose

zooz, just think of it as giving them a chance to fulfil their potential.
4:30 am
zoozzoom

Good point, Rose, LOL
4:30 am
puglet

Zoom could you put your feeder on a metal pole that the cats cant climb
4:30 am
sprite

kind of a buffet for cats
4:30 am
grannyrose

ahem...excuse me folks...have a very low resistance to that body....

4:38 am
puglet

Havent seen Ruby on yet
4:39 am
sprite

no, indeed
4:39 am
zoozzoom

Unpoof...Sprite..have i missed something here..whats happened?
4:41 am
sprite

aw dear zooz... had to tell my son yesterday that he had to leave home... he hit his sister again and thinks that is normal... and my husband let him back in last night and now he refuses to leave. It is a big mess.
4:41 am
puglet

anytime(and I mean anytime) you need someone to talk to or vent on feel free to email me Sprite.I know I dont have the knowledge that Rose has but I got good ears and broad shoulders
4:42 am
sprite

I will keep that in mind, pug, thank you so much. My very best friend is on vacation right now and I feel rather lonely in this.
4:43 am
zoozzoom

Oh no ((Sprite)) i am very sorry to hear that...and even more sorry that your husband did not discuss it with you first to let your son come home...you both should be singing from the same book.
4:43 am
zoozzoom

How is your daughter, Sprite, shaken up i take it?
4:44 am
sprite

couldn't agree more, about that being on the same page. Am very angry at my husband.
Yes, daughter is shaken up but feels more secure in knowing we take this very seriously.
4:45 am
sprite

she is at a friend's now... I just called her and told her about Tim being let back in and advising her to stay for dinner at her friend's, if possible.
4:46 am
sprite

husband is gone all day, canoeing. God I am mad.
4:48 am
puglet

sprite I hope you and your daughter will be safe there with him. And why didnt your husband take your son with him
4:48 am
zoozzoom

Good idea...but you need to talk to your husband and tell him that these things need to be discussed before he dismisses your authority like that..as as you can see that sends a signal to your son,that it does not matter what you say as father will over ride your command...that needs to be addressed promtly..so when you say something..it means it is from you & his father.
4:49 am
sprite

exactly, zooz. I am always the one who has to talk to our children and address issues and discipline if necessary. And now this. I feel like there is nothing more I can say.
4:49 am
sprite

pug, my daughter is safe enough when I am around, but I can't be with them all the time.
4:50 am
puglet

well knowing what is going on there I think your hubby should not had left you holding the bag so to say
4:50 am
zoozzoom

I have to go now ((Sprite)) so hope you can get this resolved about both of you are as one...How to sort out your son, I am sorry but that is way to complexed for me to work out..but as Puglet says ..always here for you..sorry but lift is waiting..Hugs to you all.
4:51 am
sprite

thanks for caring, zooz. Have a lovely day!
4:51 am
sprite

pug, exactly. My husband is a wonderful man, but in this he has let me down something bad.
4:52 am
puglet

is he afraid of your son being mad at him
4:53 am
puglet

I got a friend who has a daughter that treats her awful and shes so afraid of losing the friendship between them she takes it
4:53 am
sprite

I really don't know. I wouldn't think so. My husband is bigger and stronger and not likely to step aside for anyone.
4:54 am
gran

an 7/44 - clue please
4:55 am
sprite

hi gran, sorry, don't have it yet
4:58 am
sprite

that is so sad, pug. What kind of friendship is that? Anyway, we are not meant to be our children's friends... we are their parents. I will not accept violence in my home... have lived in violence as a child and there is no way I am gonna let this happen. If it takes me and Caya moving out, so be it.

11:33 am

ah. well, she asked about the menagerie, not why i'm going to the clinic on a sunday - that's to change bandages on a dog that got run over by a car :)

sammysmom

ggson , sam, asked me the other day how long i have lived in this house (sam is 5) and i said well, when we moved here , your uncle walter was 2 years old and that was 41 years ago............. sam thought about it a second and seaid"
11:34 am
Jillyjill

Oh, dear, how awful
11:34 am
Jillyjill

Saw a new thing animal wise, at the rodeo last night.
11:34 am
sammysmom

that's a loooong time g'nana and uncle walter, you are OLD!!
11:34 am
jesdraggon

the owner was actually with her on a jog on a back road, and the dog got hit not 5 feet from him, ruru.
11:35 am
MollyL

<---Loves Sam stories : D
11:35 am
rururocks

on leash or not jes?
11:36 am
jesdraggon

so she was at the clinic within half an hour of being hit. No leash, but there's no leash law in this county, and they were on a dirt back road - so why was the person driving fast enough on a dirt road to go completely over the top of a decent sized dog?
11:36 am
rururocks

i rest my case
11:37 am
rururocks

many pet owners are just plain stupid
11:38 am
MollyL

I always think of leashes as protection for the dogs, not legal restriction for the owners.
11:38 am
sammysmom

ah jess, that is sad, seems like folks should know better but most people have the attitude that they are bulletproof.............. it take3s a smack in the head to make one realise just how fragile they are
11:38 am
jesdraggon

it's not so clear cut as that, ruru. this is a well cared for dog, who was not any further away from the owner than she would have been had she been ON a leash - many people who use leashes on runs use the 20 foot retractables... I've walked my own dogs off leash frequently in areas that I wasn't expecting traffic
11:38 am
hego

how, oh how can there be an lu 4,10?
11:38 am
hego

It's probably really simple.
11:39 am

ty
11:40 am
jesdraggon

From a legal standpoint, dog was in road, which creates a traffic hazard. But from a realistic standpoint, why was someone driving that fast on a dirt road with little traction and a TON of deer? was only bad luck for the dog that he hit the dog and not a wild animal 4 times her size that would have destroyed his car.
11:40 am
sammysmom

i used to do a mean double one ru.......... oh dear god. that was 60 years ago. "sob"
11:41 am

11:41 am
Jillyjill

have a good day jes!
11:41 am
hego

there, there smom.
11:41 am
rururocks

I live in an area where young kids speed around all the time.. dogs are off leash here and cats are loose.. all the time.. and animals are run over. I never, ever have my dog off leash.. and I don't use the flexies as you have no control.. but that's just me
11:42 am
jesdraggon

she's doing better, but will likely need to see an orthopedic surgeon in a couple weeks to have her wrist fused. It's completely ripped open and was rotated almost 180 degrees from where it should have been. :(
11:42 am
hego

I don't get flexies.
11:42 am
MollyL

Good for you, Ru.
11:43 am
jesdraggon

And that's perfectly fine, ru, but I don't think you can just say, at least in this case, that the dog's owner was at fault - like I said, not even 5' from the dog at the time, even if you use a standard leash, many of those are 6'.
11:43 am
jesdraggon

gotta go :)
11:43 am

Just a case of teporary Babble blindness.
11:44 am
rururocks

with a short leash.. you can bring the animal closer to you in a hurry. I'm sorry for the owner.. but yes they share the fault in this
11:44 am
MollyL

Shame there is no pu4
11:44 am

lol Molly
11:44 am

good for you jilly.. cats should be indoor animals they don't need to be outside
11:45 am
Jillyjill

New word, pi6/27, the underside of mushroom
11:45 am
MollyL

We have two outdoor cats in my development and they are the neighborhood pests. Always getting into things they should not be getting into and killing birds.
11:46 am
rururocks

outside cats have a significantly shorter life than indoor cats
11:46 am
zoozzoom

Next door neigbours cat killed a bird in my garden a few days ago..i was well pissed.
11:47 am
zoozzoom

Been trying to keep them out of my garden...the only thing that works so far..is for me to squirt them with a water pump.
11:47 am
Jillyjill

But Jes is right, even the best safeguards aren't foolproof. Last week the garage door into family room got blown open (not shut tight). And the garage open. The one cat got out. LOL, thankfully, he had just escaped, and was freaked out when I saw the door open...he just froze until I went to pick him up.
11:48 am
rururocks

*ties fingers for zooz's comment*
11:49 am
MollyL

I agree Jill, but not keeping your dog on a leash is no safeguard at all.
11:49 am
zoozzoom

I don't mind, ruru...not trying to hurt them..just keep them out of my garden.
11:49 am
Jillyjill

And we live 4 houses down from a busy street, there is no way I am going to let a cat outside.
11:50 am
rururocks

I took lessons from the woman who had the National Obedience Champion.. and she would NEVER have her dog outside off leash
11:50 am
Shirlockc

i get nervous when the cats follow me out onto the balcony
11:50 am
Jillyjill

We only had our dog off leash in dog parks or when hiking on trails
11:51 am
rururocks

no zooz .. it was a more risque comment i witheld
11:52 am
zoozzoom

I have four houses in my road who the owners let their cats stay out all day & night..only one person has their cats in a massive caged garden for them to enjoy..that to me is being responsible.
11:52 am

So far, so good. The one who had a hip replacement will take some rehab in a rehab center. He isn't pleased he couldn't go home, but I think that will make him work harder at the rehab to get out.

we live on the shores of georgian bay and there is a road that runs along the shore and in january and february the wind howls in from the north off the water and makes these drifts across the road that are 15-25 feet high.freeze you to the bone that wind does but is great fun

4:05 pm
Soodle

As it seems theres only us on here right now, can I ask you a question? Where did all the loot come from?( And more importantly, what can I do to emulate)?
4:06 pm
crosshair

well,to emulate you must have a close relative die and go through 8 months of probate/lawyer hell.it paid the outstanding bills,replaced the worn out car and allowed me to go back to school for a year but that is about it.back to poverty after this
4:08 pm
Soodle

Oh, I'm sorry for your loss, Cross. But I'm sure the deceased is delighting in your enjoyment.
