1:52 am
grannyrose
*giggle*
1:52 am
sprite
yeah am feeling good. Struggling like mad with the binging urge but still managing to not give in to it. Which in itself is a good feeling, I guess.
1:53 am
flosey
wonderful Sprite
1:53 am
sprite
sounds good, flosey :) More fun cause of the weather!
1:54 am
puglet
That was kind of nice that you got to have some extra time with her Flosey
1:54 am
sprite
lol pug... indeed. She needs watching, that one.
1:54 am
grannyrose
sprite, as you gain control over the BSL's, your urges to binge will probably subside. it's a matter of time, waiting for your body to recognise it doesn't have to binge, because the insulin doesn't need to be generated or used.
1:54 am
sprite
am having breakfast as we speak, btw... so proud of myself. I hate breakfasting. Ugh.
1:55 am
sprite
I hope so, rose!
1:55 am
flosey

2:10 am
flosey
or should say, expands
2:10 am
joso
you all are not helping my good side to win here
2:11 am
sprite
probably because your good side is not your best side ;)
2:11 am
puglet
and which side is that? LOL
2:12 am
flosey
but we're all on YOUR side, joso
2:12 am

2:13 am
flosey

2:14 am
sprite
very true, flosey. Makes all the difference on some days.
2:14 am
puglet
no, we are not, Flosey
2:16 am
puglet
Ive had plenty of fairweather friends through out my life as I expect you all have too
2:17 am
flosey
true pugs, it's just a case of knowing when to let go of some
2:17 am
sprite
oh yes. But I have been very lucky in also always having some real friends. I have a friend I met when I was 6, and some I met when I was around 16. That is some staying power, grin.
2:18 am
flosey
those are the ones you'll probably have into old age
2:19 am
sprite
awesome :)
2:20 am
puglet
I got 2 friends that I can count on through thick or thin and now I can add several of you to that list.Though we may never meet in person, there are some here I feel very intrusted towards
2:20 am
grannyrose
i wish, flosey. the only soul friend i had on this side of the big pond died 4 years ago. mind you, i still have my best friend with me. he is sitting beside me.
2:21 am
sprite
and vice versa, pug *hug*
2:21 am
puglet
we all have a special friend that keeps us connected
2:21 am
sprite
so sad, rose. So hard to be the one who lives on. But yeah, your love is right with you. Half nekkid or not, he rocks.
2:21 am
flosey
it's the way of life, rose, as we age - and, fortunately, we do meet new friends
2:22 am
gran
How many words today please
2:22 am
flosey
lol sprite, you do always find humour in everything
2:23 am
sprite
my besetting sin and my anchor through it all, flosey :)
2:23 am
puglet
you guys that has been babbling for sometime, whats the largest grid that you've had
2:24 am
flosey
744 was the largest, and believe me, it took the 24 hours (with naps in there of course)
2:25 am
sprite
yeah that was special. It was on a sunday or saturday, and lots of people had time to play and the chog was amazing all day long.
2:25 am
joso
sounds like a hoot, was lickety around at the time?
2:26 am
grannyrose
lol, i remember. i actually went to bed with the grid unfinished...i was exhausted. but it was such fun.
2:26 am
sprite
yes, he was, or we couldn't have finished the grid. Undoable without lickety for the last few.
2:26 am
flosey
he was joso, bless him
2:26 am
grannyrose
oh, yes, joso, even with lickety it took ages to complete
2:26 am
flosey
I'd never have finished without Lickety
2:27 am
sprite
me neither, flosey
2:27 am
puglet
you wouldnt think that that many words could be found in 25 letters
2:28 am
sprite
if I remember correctly, if one letter in that grid had been different, it would have rendered a 788 grid even.
2:28 am
grannyrose
i can get pretty close to finished as i have the enable dictionary on my shortcuts. even then, sometimes i cannot finish without a list.
2:28 am

2:37 am
sprite
we should grab those doctors, shake them till they go silent and then make them sign all papers. Tsk.
2:37 am
grannyrose
it will, liz...and i am very patient...they don't understand how patient.
2:37 am
Lizlin
Sprite how are the meetings going and the meal management?
2:37 am
sprite
ah, I found Ceddy Fauntleroy's mum in the grid!
2:37 am
Lizlin
You obviously need to be patient!
2:37 am
grannyrose
by they i mean the hierarchy...
2:38 am
Lizlin
Rose will not be beaten down!
2:38 am
sprite
first therapy day went well, Liz, though I was very much shaken afterwards (and had a major episode of binging). But meal management is going pretty well. Meetings about Tim are going ok.
2:38 am
sprite
yes, rose definitely needs to be a patient, lolol
2:39 am
Lizlin
Slowly but steadily sprite. That's good.
2:40 am
grannyrose
gosh, they are such a lot of smarmy so-and-so's.saw 2 of them yesterday when i dropped off my latest certificate. and it was..hello rose...how are you rose...and me limping along with robocop on my leg....how the farnarckle do you think i am doing??
2:41 am
sprite
be glad they didn't say: "I'll race you to the door."
2:41 am
grannyrose
*giggle* i would have tripped them with my walking stick...
2:41 am
sprite
yeah, good enough, Liz. I keep telling myself I am a hero. But not compared to our rose... she is a REAL hero.
2:41 am
sprite
would have loved to watch that, rose :)
2:42 am
Lizlin
Duh! I saw the stupidest thing a couple of weeks ago. Woman in knee brace( she doesn't usually wear one) wearing the highest of heels!
2:42 am
grannyrose
awww sprite...everyone is a winner here. you are right up there, sweetie.
2:42 am
sprite
omg Liz... that is... beyond stupid.
2:42 am
Lizlin
That's what I thought. All in the name of fashion!
2:43 am
flosey
for sure, man o man what she's doing to herself
2:43 am
grannyrose
acckkk, high heels??? how dumb is that??
2:43 am
sprite
imagine being the doctor for someone like that.
2:43 am
flosey
lol, I wore them back east (accepted attire) wore them once here on the island and never again
2:44 am
sprite
the knee brace or the heels, flosey? :D
2:44 am
Lizlin
I don't know her well enough to ask what the brace was for or to tell her how stupid that was.
2:44 am
grannyrose
sprite, probably a VERY bald doctor...from snatching out the hair
2:44 am
joso
human stupidity knows no zenith. Just when you think you've seen the daftest thing possible some git comes along to top it
2:44 am
flosey
only the heels, sprite
2:45 am
sprite
too true, joso, too true.
2:45 am
Lizlin
I haven't worn heels here. Wore them twice on the cruise and then not too high!
2:45 am

2:46 am
grannyrose

2:47 am
Lizlin
Sleep well Flosey :)
2:47 am

2:48 am

told my girl: when you go out on high heels, 'high' is the word. Feel tall. Have the longest legs you can. And no big strides. Be elegant.
2:49 am
gran
Any lists posted?
2:49 am
Lizlin
Good advice sprite.
2:49 am
grannyrose
gran, in mitchdick's profile
2:50 am

and she is, lol. She is this lovely mixture of tomboy and lady. Totally elegant when she wants to be, and delightfully nonchalant when riding or camping out.
2:52 am
Lizlin
Sounds like a well balanced mixture!
2:52 am
sprite
she is. Well balanced I mean. For one her age, she is amazingly stable.
2:53 am

not that I am biased or anything
2:53 am

sprite, my god-daughters mother died before she imparted that knowledge on...i am trying to teach them, but as one lives about 2 hours away, and the other is in boarding school, not having a lot of success.
2:57 am
sprite
it seems to be a vanishing art, rose. Maybe if they come and visit you, you will have the chance.
2:58 am
grannyrose
*giggle* can you imagine me in high heels? but i guess i could instruct them verbally...
2:58 am
sprite
I had to do that too, rose. Haven't been able to wear high heels since I got pregnant from Tim. My girl has never seen me in high heels.
2:59 am
sprite
oh... reminds me... would you like to see a recent picture of me, being all huge and fat and old? Just got a few pictures from our last day on the farm.
2:59 am
grannyrose
so, then, it does work...the verbal handing on of knowledge.
3:00 am
grannyrose
please do sprite. i am thinking you will be beautiful, no matter what. xoxox
3:00 am
sprite

Oh Ruby. I've not been here regularly recently. Sorry youre having such a tough time. Hugs to you :)

My DH does me the same way, Ruby
3:36 am

on planet Dementia
3:37 am
rubyfoo
I guess they just hate being wrong so just lash out
3:38 am
puglet
dementia has nothing to do with my Dh brain!
3:38 am
sprite
though his brain may have been damaged by excessive alcohol intake, pug
3:40 am
sprite
I think it may be related to feeling bad about themselves. If a man suppresses feeling inferior for whatever reason (being a addict or being increasingly forgetful and confused), being in the wrong is unbearable. Better to be angry.
3:41 am
sprite
ok... done being preachy, grin
3:41 am
puglet
here is just a small example of what I go through. The other day he is griping that I need to do laundry(which was a small basket) so after a day I done it, then He is bitching me out that after the first load that Iam going to drain the well
3:42 am
ivesy3
hmmmm ty ruby.. just what i needed....now bouncing around room....lol
3:42 am
sprite
so next time hand him the basket with his clothes and tell him to do it himself, pug.
3:42 am
rubyfoo
yw, ivesy
3:42 am
rubyfoo
but they never know how to work machines, sprite
3:43 am
puglet
that is just what Iam going to do Sprite
3:43 am
sprite
so then his clothes will stay unwashed, ruby. I wouldn't accept being treated like that... appreciate what I am doing or do it yourself :)
3:44 am
sprite
yay pug, good for you. Am so grateful for my love.
3:45 am
puglet
and when I say bitching, Iam talking about a huge screaming, cussing fit
3:45 am
rubyfoo
yu are fortunate to have trained your husband so well, but, of course, you are both younger than pug's and my husbands
3:45 am
sprite
and of course, in your case, ruby, it would be hard. Can't teach that very old dog new tricks anymore, can you...
3:45 am
sprite
omg pug... so so sorry. You shouldn't have to live with that. So disrespectful.
3:45 am
rubyfoo
he's forgetting the tricks he used to know, like turning on the TV etc
3:46 am
grannyrose
yeah...ditto here, sprite. mind you, i had to teach him first..when we married, he couldn't work out why i turn the dark coloured washing inside out...he does now...lol
3:46 am
puglet
I usually dont let it get to me too much but there are times it just gets to me
3:46 am
sprite
yeah, exactly ruby. Qu5 another situation, alas.
3:46 am
sprite
lol rose. Sure, when starting to live together, both have to learn some new tricks.
3:46 am
rubyfoo
just give him one linty shirt, eh, Rose?
3:47 am
grannyrose
roflol...ruby....and he now realises why i iron even t-shirts...they look so much nicer..
3:48 am
sprite
<-- doesn't iron
3:49 am
grannyrose
i wonder if he will continue with my 'rituals' when i die...
3:49 am
puglet
I do get back at him from time to time--Like when he goes deer hunting, I sneak close to where I know he is and blow one of those silent dog whisles--lol
3:49 am
rubyfoo
you are very funny, pugs!!!!
3:49 am
rubyfoo
just be careful you're out of range
3:50 am
grannyrose
sprite, i think...if it was cheap to buy, iron it to make it look nice...if it was expensive to buy, iron because it cost so much.
3:50 am
puglet
I figure the longer he sits in the tree the more peace I have
3:50 am
sprite
he will need to be institutionalised if you should die before him, ruby
3:50 am
sprite
lol rose. I think... if you want clothes that need ironing, you are old enough to do it yourself.
3:51 am
sprite
in my defense, I used to iron when the kids were smaller. But not anymore since I can't stand for any period of time.
3:51 am

each to his/her own, sprite

3:52 am

I'm hoping for 95 lol
3:52 am

i go with my mom,s policy, if it needs Ironing don't buy it
3:52 am

4:05 am

ooh, chopped egg in liver...are you able to send me the recipe? ruby?
4:06 am

late at night I'm always hungry for an egg (??) but when I make myself a fried egg yolk on buttery toast, the dogs practically take me down so that I share
4:06 am

Dogs have good taste

4:07 am

I have no ideas of the quantities, rose, but you just fry the chicken livers in butter with some sliced onion, boil the egg (s) separately and then put it all in the food processor (briefly

Lizlin
For real "Jewish" chopped liver, it shouldn't be too smooth.
4:08 am
rubyfoo
I didn[t learn to eat liver until I was an adult and had it in a restaurant. When my mother cooked it, it was like eating your bedroom slipper
4:08 am
rubyfoo
yes, maybe it's better just to chop everything, but I am too lazy!
4:08 am
grannyrose
oohhh, ruby, will try to remember..sounds yummy. served on toast?
4:09 am

I can't stand fried liver. Cooked is ok though.
4:09 am

Old fashioned mincers make the best!

I love chicken gizzards too==mmm

My mum had a mincer, which bolted onto the table. A hand mincer.

4:23 am
rubyfoo

4:23 am
sprite
right joso.
4:24 am
joso
the best ones are the ones you bang to make it work better, or at all
4:25 am
sprite
like old TVs. A bang at the side, a blast on the top and all was well in our world.
4:25 am
rubyfoo
the other system is to turn it off, unplugging if necessary, and then statting over
4:26 am
puglet
back--and hope you enjoy your banana coffee Sprite:)
4:27 am
grannyrose
gosh...went to get meds ready...came back and read back through chog...you are all nuts. no wonder i fit in.
4:27 am
joso
they seem to have removed the bang widget from new devices, bang them and all that happens is the little light goes out.... forever
4:27 am
rubyfoo
ya think?
4:27 am
puglet
Iam a cashew nut!
4:28 am
grannyrose
pleased to say, joso, you bang me, my light does not go out...
4:28 am
rubyfoo
last night the volume control on the TV refused to work and I tried everything, several times, and finally it did. It occurs to me that there probably aren't TV repairmen any more.... :(
4:29 am
rubyfoo
rose isn't a nut, just naughty {{rosie}
4:29 am
