1:30 am

i did a really silly thing today.

1:30 am

grannyrose

we were in the local store, and they had a box set of 10 old movies, on dvd. DH was very interested in it, so i bought it for him. *sigh*

1:31 am

puglet

old movies of what

1:32 am

grannyrose

murder mysterys....

1:33 am

puglet

well that was nice of you to do---Is he enjoying them now

1:34 am

grannyrose

yes, dear. he really like the old movies. there's no swearing, no overt sex.

1:34 am

grannyrose

most of them are set in the 40's, 50's

1:35 am

puglet

Is hard to find new movies that dont contain all of that anymore

1:36 am

joso

why is that a silly thing

1:36 am

grannyrose

pugs, he has a large collection of dvds. i think the last count was about 500

1:37 am

puglet

you could run your own theater!

1:37 am

grannyrose

because, he will want to watch them one after another, and if want to watch anything on tv i won't be able to see the program.

1:38 am

joso

ah, an old fashioned 1 tv home

1:39 am

grannyrose

yup, refuse to have a second one, never in the bedroom, and no family room to have one in, either.

1:39 am

puglet

Maybe you could buy him a personal dvd player

1:39 am

joso

petards... hoisting

1:40 am

grannyrose

and he is going to sit??? where??? except where he is right now, beside me in the lounge room.

1:41 am

puglet

well most have earphones

1:41 am

joso

I'm not following, are you complaining or pleased as punch

1:41 am

grannyrose

hmmm, some merit in that pugs....

1:42 am

grannyrose

50-50, joso.

1:43 am

scouser

Hello grannyrose - doesn't your pc run DVDs? you watch TV DH watches films on your computer?? Ah but I guess you multitask and do Babble AND watch TV at same time?

1:44 am

grannyrose

*giggle* scouser, you sprung me....

1:45 am

grannyrose

may be he could run them on his laptop...that would solve a heap of problems.

1:45 am

joso

midst of a fight, she says whats on your mind, he says you always say that, and whatever I answer I'm going to be in the wrong. She say good, so long as you know the ground rules

1:45 am

scouser

My ex used to go mad because I could knit, read a novel ,and keep tabs on the TV all at the same time aaaaarh after all the TV only requires one peek every five mins doesn't it?

1:45 am

grannyrose

roflol, joso...absolutely true...

1:48 am

joso

don't ever show DH how to torrent, he can get every movie he knows the title to. you will never babble again

1:50 am

grannyrose

promise not to, joso. but may be a tad late. his daughter gave him a book last christmas with absolutely every film made, in whatever language. he is working his way through it. has marked what he has seen, what he owns, what he wants to get.

1:50 am

puglet

Joso, it sounds like you know all this first hand-lol

1:50 am

scouser

at divorce I threw out the TV - never looked back!

1:51 am

grannyrose

it's better than halliwell's. halliwell's doesn't list early australian movies.

1:51 am

joso

oh yea, i don't go to movies any more, they come to me

1:52 am

joso

the nerve of halliwell

1:53 am

grannyrose

DH has made it almost impossible for me to operate the tv. we have remotes for the tv, the set-top box, the amplifier, the dvd player. i am so challenged by it all.

1:54 am

scouser

are there many english words in the grid?

1:54 am

grannyrose

lol, scouser. a few hun

1:55 am

puglet

Rose, they now have a voice comand tv on the market now

1:55 am

grannyrose

lol, now that would be interesting.

1:56 am

grannyrose

gives a new meaning to ' his master's voice '

1:57 am

puglet

then all you would need is to plug that into one of those clappers and wala! never have to move--lol

1:57 am

grannyrose

lol, pugs

1:57 am

scouser

Oh so you can sit there shouting alternate commands to the TV all night? - exeunt TV and remotes through window I guess

1:58 am

flosey

down to 16 and too tired to finish tonight - bb in the morning, goodnight all

1:58 am

scouser

Also if you got a cold-in-the-head the TV wouldn't recognise you ?

1:58 am

puglet

1:59 am

grannyrose

2:00 am

grannyrose

117, gran

2:01 am

gran

Thanks

2:01 am

puglet

that seems to be becoming a all out outbreak

2:01 am

joso

so his cough is hanging in

2:02 am

grannyrose

yes, pugs, according to doc she has seen several cases lately

2:02 am

puglet

its here in the states too

2:03 am

grannyrose

joso, it's driving both of us crazy. i don't know how to help him. have tried sprays, inhalations, cough mixtures...he has been on antibiotics, and is still using asthma meds.

2:03 am

rururocks

Maybe he's had too much whoopy granny

2:04 am

grannyrose

lol, ruru, you wicked man...i should be so lucky..

2:05 am

puglet

ahh, thats why its called whooping cough!

2:05 am

joso

Wish I could help, but if I had this problem you are who I would ask about it

2:05 am

grannyrose

8giggle* pugs

2:06 am

flosey

this will sound very willy rose, but I was always having colds, - every winter. So got fed up, and saw this ad somewhere, put normal kitchen onion beside your bed, beside the tv where you sit while reading, at the sink, - was getting so exasperated i tried it and haven't had a cold since - and this has been a few years

2:06 am

grannyrose

poor man hasn't slept in bed for nearly 3 weeks. every time he lies down, he starts coughing.

2:07 am

flosey

lol, not willy, silly

2:07 am

grannyrose

willy, works, flosey. especially if ruru is around.

2:08 am

rururocks

That scallionous flosey

2:08 am

grannyrose

is the onion peeled? cut up?

2:08 am

joso

have you tried making a 1/2 sitting position for him in bed, might be able to sleep that way

2:08 am

flosey

no, just as you buy them so there is no odor

2:08 am

flosey

I also stopped drinking milk

2:09 am

grannyrose

yup, joso. went out and bought a sleeping wedge...wedge, ruru, not wedgie...

2:09 am

rururocks

That doesn't sound too apeeling flosey

2:09 am

flosey

and now to bed

2:09 am

grannyrose

the milk makes sense...

2:10 am

grannyrose

and we only use skim milk nowadays, so i don't think it's the milk

2:10 am

puglet

its just a crying shame!

2:10 am

joso

see, I knew you would be ahead of me on this

2:10 am

flosey

yes, but the onions work too, no kidding

2:10 am

Marc Freeman

2:12 am

Marc Freeman

got it thanks

2:13 am

grannyrose

roflol, joso, he says he has thought of that himself

2:14 am

scouser

maybe he just got a sore uvula - my Dad had trouble with that for long time

2:16 am

grannyrose

he says he can feel the cough coming from just below the sternum.

2:17 am

grannyrose

only thing i haven't tried is steamed swede. he says he won't eat it...says quality of life is more important.

2:17 am

2:46 am

sprite

bye Glant, have a good day at work!

2:46 am

grannyrose

lol, byyy-eee glant, hope you have a lovely day

2:47 am

sprite

rose, how are you today? Any news?

2:50 am

scouser

I just found the ha5/24 absolutely essential for all Babblers to know about them since they sometimes appear in the grid as Babblets

2:51 am

sprite

lol, true, scouser.

2:54 am

grannyrose

sprite, no news on the surgery front. insurers have not contacted me, yet. my gut tells me they are going to send me to see a knee surgeon. goodness only knows when that will be. meanwhile my own doc said, after reading the report, that's it, you are not allowed to work. so here i sits, here i waits.

2:55 am

sprite

*sits and waits with you*
My poor rose. They keep you hanging, the asses. They need a serious red pepper in their youknowwhat

2:56 am

grannyrose

roflol, sprite, and chuckling even...i like your style, hun.

2:57 am

puglet

they should of not made you return to work at all until you were healed

2:57 am

sprite

:)

2:58 am

grannyrose

sprite, you probably didn't see earlier. doctor is now wanting don to be tested for whooping cough. it doesn't sound like whooping cough to me.

2:59 am

sprite

oh ok... well, it won't hurt to have it tested, will it? Better safe than sorry and all that crap. But if it isn't whooping cough, at least they will know they have to look further.

2:59 am

sprite

pug, amen to that

3:00 am

grannyrose

pugs, there wasn't much of an option. the bills still have to be paid. but now they have acknowledged that my ankle sprain is directly due to the knee injury from the fall, i can take leave and know that the insurers will pay me.

3:01 am

sprite

sidenote: my little terra is dreaming :) Tiny yips rise up from my feet.

3:01 am

grannyrose

awww, terra, pats dearest one

3:01 am

sprite

will do :)

3:02 am

puglet

I understand that Rose but returning to work has more than likely added to prolong healing

3:02 am

sprite

sometimes he growls in his sleep, then wakes up from it, sits and looks around quite franticly to see who made that noise. I melt into a puddle when he does that.

3:03 am

grannyrose

absolutely, pugs. but try telling that to them...all they see is dollars flying out with nothing achieved.

3:03 am

puglet

My little pug acts like she sucking a teat sometimes in her sleep

3:03 am

sprite

awwww so sweet

3:04 am

grannyrose

awww, pugs

3:04 am

sprite

you have a lovely saying for that, rose... what is it again... something like penny-wise and pound-stupid

3:05 am

grannyrose

lol, sprite. like my friend's king doberman. one time he farted and got such a fright, he did a 180 degree, looking for what had made the noise.

3:05 am

sprite

roflolllll oh that is priceless

3:06 am

grannyrose

yes, sprite, penny wise, pound foolish

3:06 am

grannyrose

sprite, we nearly died from laughing so hard.

3:06 am

sprite

that's the one I meant. Exactly what your work is being. They will have to pay so much more because you ahve to heal up for longer.

3:07 am

sprite

hehehe so would I have done. They are so funny, dogs.

3:08 am

grannyrose

yup. and another work colleague said...try to be as remote as possible. the reason why the hierarchy win all the time, is because they are so cold and aloof.

3:08 am

sprite

that is true as well. They manipulate you with feelings of guilt and responsibility.

3:09 am

joso

I mis likety, this is twice as hard without him

3:09 am

grannyrose

yes, sprite. but no more...i don't care any more...just fix it, and let me get on with my life.

3:10 am

grannyrose

joso, list in volleydeemom's profile, mate

3:10 am

sprite

I once told my boss, when he was through whining about how much trouble my being ill caused at work: "See Dick, that is why they pay you so much more than me. You are able to sort out this kind of mess."

3:10 am

sprite

hi joso *hugs*

3:10 am

joso

Using it, good to have but not the same

3:11 am

grannyrose

oh, sprite...you didn't??? good on you!!

3:11 am

sprite

*hugs rose* Good for you, hun. And of course you still care. But at least you know now how to hold out against them anyway.

3:11 am

joso

hi sprite, rehi pug, rose

3:12 am

sprite

oh I did. And kept an angelic smile on my face all through his spluttering.

3:12 am

puglet

re Hi Joso

3:15 am

puglet

This is the day that the Lord has made and I got to spend it running everyone on their monthly errands--lol

3:16 am

sprite

aw sweetie :) I'd say, let your husband run himself and good luck with it.

3:17 am

puglet

I would but no one can drive but me

3:17 am

sprite

you take care of yourself, hun. Please.

3:18 am

puglet

I will, Sprite--thank you :)

3:18 am

sprite

*hugs*

3:19 am

puglet

puglet

3:29 am

sprite

3:34 am

grannyrose

3:34 am

joso

only lived here 4 years, last move was a disaster that streached out over 5 days

3:35 am

joso

3:35 am

puglet

sounds like a whole new life changing coming on

3:36 am

grannyrose

3:36 am

3:37 am

grannyrose

and i have no doubt, joso, that that wish will co4 true.

3:37 am

sprite

3:37 am

puglet

3:37 am

joso

no offence, but i like things as they are rose.

3:38 am

grannyrose

*chuckle* yeah...that's what himself said 12 years ago.

3:39 am

sprite

you know what they say... once upon a time I had a good woman.... once upon a woman....

3:39 am

grannyrose

roflol, sprite

3:39 am

puglet

You did Sprite? lol

3:40 am

sprite

*giggles* Nah, I was speaking for joso now.

3:40 am

grannyrose

3:40 am

puglet

3:42 am

puglet

good night Joso

3:42 am

grannyrose

3:44 am

sprite

just realised there is a whole generation of babblers who never even learned to play without having lickety at the ready.

3:44 am

grannyrose

yes, sprite. sad isn't it?

3:45 am

puglet

wishing you all many blessings,love and hugs. Need to get off and do some things before going to town...bye bye

3:45 am

sprite

very. Must be so frustrating for them when there is no Lickety.

3:45 am

sprite

bye pug... will be thinking of you. Take good care of yourself, you hear?

3:45 am

grannyrose

byyy-eee, pugs dear. hope your day is a good one. xoxox

3:46 am

sprite

I keep wanting to make hispanic

3:46 am

grannyrose

i have the enable word list...it is amazingly helpful

3:46 am

sprite

I use a2z when I get stuck.

3:47 am

grannyrose

whatever we use, we get there under our steam most times, right?

3:47 am

sprite

yes, with all but the really big grids. Then it becomes too time-consuming to hunt for the last bit and then lickety comes in handy.

3:48 am

sprite

am down to 32 now. Kinda stuck, but still having fun.

3:49 am

grannyrose

have to agree, with you sprite. i have noticed that lately i am remembering the obscure words.

3:49 am

sprite

roflol! So funny. We babblers know the most obscure words, and their meaning.

3:50 am

grannyrose

yeah, and we use them everyday, don't we??? NOT!!!

3:50 am

sprite

just fed my inia. Pfui. Which is a ha5/24 in this post.

3:51 am

grannyrose

no meaning in the dictionary.....maybe we are swearing/cursing in an ancient language???

3:52 am

sprite

yeah, I often look op words at infoplease.com

3:53 am

sprite

up, not op (op is dutch for up, as you probably guessed)

3:53 am

NonoNanette

good morning Babblers :)

3:54 am

sprite

hiya nanette :) We saw you earlier :)

3:55 am

grannyrose

wb, nanette

3:55 am

NonoNanette

oops sorry about that, this laptop is so easy to miscue

3:56 am

sprite

nah, no problem, just glad you are really with us now

3:56 am

grannyrose

are you well, nanette?

3:57 am

zoozzoom

I think it is when people use babble expert..if you type in words fast...sometimes the first letter goes into chat for some strange reason.

3:57 am

NonoNanette

yes thanks Rose other than being cold

3:57 am

sprite

hi zooz *hugs*
I use the expert and it never does that for me.

3:57 am

rubyfoo

good morning everybody

3:58 am

NonoNanette

hi zooz, yes that is most likely the problem

3:58 am

sprite

*sending Nanette the softest, warmest blanket ever*

3:58 am

NonoNanette

hi Ruby

3:58 am

sprite

hiya ruby *hug*

3:58 am

grannyrose

oh, for goodness sake!! *hands sprite handfuls of hair*. he's out in the kitchen coughing up his lungs...aagghhh

3:58 am

NonoNanette

aweee thanks sprite

3:58 am

zoozzoom

Type faster, Sprite :-)

3:58 am

grannyrose

3:58 am

sprite

aw poor man.... poor rose :(

3:59 am

sprite

am a very fast typist, zooz, lol

3:59 am

grannyrose

g'day zooz

3:59 am

gran

Can someone please list the sp's

4:00 am

zoozzoom

Hello, Rose :-).......does not sound good, DH, having coughing fits...poor chap.

4:00 am

rubyfoo

yuck, rose!!

4:00 am

grannyrose

sp4, 5, 5, 5, 4, 4,5

4:00 am

rubyfoo

get out the Drano!

4:00 am

sprite

rose, not sure if this can be the case with your DH. But sometimes when people have been coughing for quite a while, the whole air system is irritated and you keep on coughing.

4:01 am

zoozzoom

Hi, Ruby :-)

4:01 am

gran

Thanks

4:01 am

grannyrose

yeah, sprite, doc and i are working on that. but waiting for the all clear on whooping cough first

4:01 am

rubyfoo

so far, I want a start-over for today Husband woke me up before 7 because he locked himself out walking the dogs in the dark. Then he got mad at me. Then the server went down. I feel like a firefighter without the neat outfit

4:02 am

grannyrose

gran, let us know which you are missing

4:02 am

sprite

ok, good. Silly me, thinking a nurse wouldn't know this, lol.

4:02 am

zoozzoom

lol

4:03 am

grannyrose

awww, ruby. xoxox dearest friend.

4:03 am

sprite

aw poor ruby. Not a good start of the day indeed.

4:03 am

zoozzoom

Deep breath slowly release & start again.

4:04 am

grannyrose

what?? the breathing or the day??

4:05 am

sprite

start again. Kick hubby back into bed, kick the server into better behaviour, lie back down yourself and pretend it is early morn.

4:05 am

zoozzoom

lol...i'll let you work that one out, Rose :-)

4:05 am

rubyfoo

he always yells at me when he is in the wrong I woke up to the door buzzer ringing repeatedly. I expected to find hm lying in the road with a dog missing someplace.

4:06 am

sprite

I think his being all mixed up scares him badly, ruby. Which makes him lash out.

4:06 am

grannyrose

sprite's plan sounds good

4:07 am

zoozzoom

Sounds like you might need some help with him, Ruby, is there no one who you can turn to?

4:08 am

rubyfoo

I'm sure you're right, sprite, but it's still scary to wake up like that. I keep telling him to wait until I'm up to walk the dogs as there's no rush. I take them out at 11PMand the back door is open all night

4:08 am

sprite

I can imagine, ruby. Quite a scare you got. *hugs*

4:08 am

grannyrose

*sigh* poor ruby. it must be so difficult to handle a loved one who has lost his/her memory.

4:11 am

rubyfoo

I'm sorry for starting out with a whine. I'm really OK, just annoyed and a little shaky

4:12 am

grannyrose

s'okay, ruby. you are allowed to vent here...

4:12 am

zoozzoom

You do not need to say sorry, Ruby :-)

4:12 am

rubyfoo

4:13 am

zoozzoom

Lots of us (me included) have our mo4s on here..i find it helps to release the frustration and to share views..people here are very helpful with lots of ideas & tips.

4:14 am

rubyfoo

4:14 am

sprite

heck yes. Best chat in the world to co4 to with your woes.

4:15 am

grannyrose

almost dinner time...will say good-bye

4:15 am

rubyfoo

bon appetite, rosie!

4:16 am

sprite

enjoy your dinner, rose. *hugs* to you, and my best to Don. Tell him to quit that irritating cough right now.

4:16 am

zoozzoom

Enjoy your meal, Rose :-)

4:16 am

NonoNanette

enjoy Rose

4:16 am

grannyrose

thanx my friends, see you at the flip

4:16 am

zoozzoom

Sove a roast potato down his throat..that should stop the cough...teehee.
