1:07 am

cataract surgery has improved a lot though hasn't it?
1:07 am
anike
In major pain after some dental work the other day but won't take it easy. I got the pun , by the way. Ha.Ha
1:08 am
jillibus
cataract surgery is a piece of cake now.
1:08 am
anike
They say cataracts done make a huge difference these days - afternoon surgery then home
1:09 am
rururocks
I had a friend who had cataract surgery and went to work the next day
1:09 am
anike
Next year he will get new knees too so will be a bionic man soon (already has a new shoulder)

Rose, we have National Historic championships here next week so have switched off from superbikes to haul out the old stuff again
1:14 am

Ruru - this sport stuff is definitely bad for you
1:15 am
rururocks
I wish I played less.. I'd probably be still playing
1:15 am
grannyrose
good heavens, anike. your life certainly isn't boring.
1:15 am
anike
Rose, I have missed what you are actually having done this time
1:16 am
grannyrose
*giggle* anike, whenever a patient comes through following surgery for a sport-related injury, i always ask them....please tell me how good playing sport is for you?
1:16 am
anike
No, life is not dull but I would like some me time one day
1:16 am
grannyrose
anike, a revision total knee replacement
1:17 am
anike
Ooh! Hope that is not too common - Peter need both done but is putting it off as long as possible
1:18 am
grannyrose
only when a) the prosthesis gets worn out, or b) when someone leaves a wet floor at work, no signs posted, and one skids and falls.
1:19 am
anike
My son Adam has buggered knees from his days as a rugby player - falling off motorbikes hasn;t helped either and he is only young. My daughter has gymnastic related problems so it makes you wonder sometimes
1:20 am
grannyrose
anike, warn peter, once he has had it done, he may need yo look for a different bike. i have a friend who found he couldn't get on or off his bike post-op
1:20 am
anike
Clumsy huh?
1:21 am
grannyrose
who me or adam?
1:21 am
anike
Peter hasn't ridden for a few years now - really misses it. He just preparing 6 bikes (4 + spares) for Adam for nest wekend
1:22 am
anike
You - fancy slipping on a wet floor - did you find the culprit?
1:24 am
anike
Peter more worried that he won't be able to manoevre enough to do everything he does at the track etc
1:24 am
grannyrose
i don't fancy slipping on wet floors...if the powers that be did find out who washed the floors without posting signs, they never told me. and i haven't had an apology from environmental services either.
1:25 am
grannyrose
anike, reassure peter, i was nearly 12 months down the track and working 10 hour shifts. hydrotherapy is the key.
1:27 am
anike
Probably lucky for the culprit that you don't know. They are so over-officious about some safety issues these days but don't watch out for the simple, avoidable accidents that are just common sense.
1:28 am
anike
I'll have to get him on to that. Speak of the devil, he's back so had better go and see if I can help him. Catch you soon.
1:28 am

i'm sort of hoping that they didn't get the sack over it. this is costing the workcover insurers a packet.

May I please have a clue for re9-72? Thanks
3:06 am
Haz1558
re9/72 - begin with the going back word (re5/10) then add a conflagration, plural for the 10.
3:07 am

Thanks so much, Haz.
3:07 am
Haz1558
You're welcome.

Hello, Dianne

Hey there, Diane.
3:11 am
Dianne
Haz - haven't seen you in a while. Everything good?
3:12 am
Haz1558
Yes, Dianne, I'm fine. I just kept out of chat for quite a while but continued to babble.
3:12 am
Dianne
Don't stay out of the chat - I love your comments, stories, etc.
3:13 am
Haz1558
That's kind of you. I was avoiding someone so it seemed easier to say nothing.
3:15 am
Dianne
There are some strong minded Babblers that seem
3:15 am
Dianne
to have to have their say no matter what.
3:17 am
Dianne
Why isn't re + gi 4/99 a word? We all do it.
3:17 am
Haz1558
I know. It just spoiled babble chat for me for quite a while.
3:18 am
Haz1558
Pass the parcel, literally.
3:21 am
Dianne
The thing is you have to remember who you got it from so you don't accidentally give it back to them the next yea.
3:22 am
Haz1558
Absolutely - or else be prepared to lie through your teeth and say you enjoyed the item so much that you wanted them to have the pleasure as well.
3:23 am
Dianne
I'll have to remember that "explanation" in case I need it.
3:23 am
gapeach
Do you all remember Johnny Carson saying that there was really only one fruitcake, it was just passed on each year. LOL
3:23 am
Haz1558
My sister-in-law can't throw anything out, however ghastly, if it's been given to her as a present. Her house is full of stuff that I'd happily bin but she feels that if someone has given it to her, it has to stay.
3:25 am
Dianne
I agree with your sister, in that every gift should be appreciated, and I do my best to find someone (other than me) that will appreciate thatparticular "thing".
3:25 am
Haz1558
She invests a great deal of sentiment in things so has things like postcards sent to her grandmother (dead 40 years).
3:26 am
Dianne
I save all the
3:26 am
Dianne
cards I get from you husband.
3:26 am
Haz1558
Yes, I appreciate the thought behind the gift but I won't keep it indefinitely. I have a friend who was given a cactus that sits on her kitchen windowsill. She has hated the sight of it for 30 years but won't throw it out.
3:27 am
Dianne
That's a real love/hate relationship.
3:27 am
Haz1558
I've offered to do the deed while her back is turned but she can't bring herself to do it.
3:27 am
Haz1558
It flowers about once every ten years and the rest of the time it just sits there mocking her and looking ugly.
3:29 am
Dianne
I am struggling with the G words.
3:29 am
Haz1558
I don't have them all either.
3:30 am
worzel
I'm struggling with the conflagration clue!!!! I know conflagration is a massive fi4/7, but can't get any further!!!
3:30 am
Haz1558
Hello, worzel. Get the re5/10 - meaning backwards or fashion of past years and add that fi.
3:31 am

ooo ty haz - what an odd word!!
3:31 am
Dianne
I have se 4 x 3 - what's the last one?
3:31 am
Haz1558
Isn't it, worzel? Glad you got it.
3:31 am

how many words are there today please? and ty haz for the 9 and 10 xx

There are 113 easy one and 42 difficult one (the ones I haven't found yet).
3:34 am

i'll take your word for the EASY bit - I'm stuck on 49. Am not such a seasoned pro lol
3:34 am

im a bit of a ne4/5 lmao
3:35 am

Got it Haz - thanks.
3:36 am
Haz1558
You're welcome.
3:45 am
Haz1558
Good morning, o-o.
3:47 am
o-o
Once you find the ones you cannot find you will find they are easier to be found.
3:48 am
Haz1558
Ah, but sometimes even though I have the word, I can hardly trace its path in the grid.
3:49 am
o-o
So true ... the devil is in the details
3:50 am
Haz1558
It's especially when people ask what words come from which tile. That can be difficult.
3:51 am
o-o
Yes, I have the difficulty too. I have been thinking if sending the askers to the lost and found?
3:51 am
Haz1558
We had our first severe frost of the winter yesterday morning. I will have to practise my walking on slippery pavement skills.
3:52 am
Haz1558
I think it may be time to invest in some of those things you slip on over shoes to minimise the risk of falling.
3:53 am
o-o
No snow here ... and some of the trees have kept their leaves ... rather unusual ...
3:53 am
worzel
We've had some really odd weather in Liverpool last couple days. Yesterday we had hailstones and i measured one at 3/4 inch wide!
3:53 am
o-o
I might invest in a proxy walker.
3:54 am
Haz1558
I always liked the idea of getting someone to do exercise for you by proxy.
3:54 am
o-o
Hail can do a lot of damage.
3:55 am
Haz1558
DId the hailstones cause any damage, worzel?
3:55 am
Dianne
We have really strong wids here - from the typhoon that devastated the Phiippines.
3:55 am
worzel
No haz but they did scare me. Was sat quietly minding my own business and thought someone was rapping on the window!!!
3:55 am
o-o
Doctor told me to lose some weight ... so I hid a dumbbell
3:57 am
Haz1558
Just as long as the dumbbell stays quiet and doesn't tell on you.
3:58 am
o-o
Yes. can do without any complications
4:02 am

Veterans Day in the US. More platitudes.
4:02 am
Haz1558
It's Remembrance Day here as well.
4:04 am
Haz1558
I discovered my grandfather's uncle's will online. All British and Irish soldiers were required to write their wills at the beginning of the Great War. The National Archives have made some of them available online. It's amazing how technology brings the past sharply into focus.
4:05 am
o-o
Phantom: rectitudinous ... seems an appropriate word for much of what said today.
4:10 am
Haz1558
o-o, do you feel war is ever justified? If you had your time over again, would you be a conscientious objector?
4:11 am
o-o
List of ongoing armed conflicts

4:15 am

Difficult questions, Haz. If a country is attacked, the country I believe is entitled to defend itself.
4:18 am
Haz1558
I agree. It becomes complicated when other countries weigh in.
4:19 am
o-o
I had the option to be a conscientious objector. I also could have gone to Canada as many did. I thought Vietnam was a war against a communist threat.
4:20 am
Haz1558
So when you went, you felt that you were fighting for a good cause?
4:20 am
o-o
The facts about the Gulf of Tonkin were bogus
4:21 am
worzel
The thing is it's too easy to say the U.S govt gave out a lot of false info in the 60s, but to be fair all governments did. It was a very secretive and dangerous time
4:22 am
o-o
The Vietnamese did not want us there ... the governments had a different idea.
4:23 am
worzel
True. Plus the fact that all administrations are based on costings for war. The US were close to bankruptcy at the start of the Vietnam war so they had to do something I guess.
4:24 am
worzel
Shame Kennedy didn't live - I think Vietnam would never have happened under him

Of course, there are those that say one of the main reasons Kennedy was assassinated was because he wouldn't go to Vietnam. Hearsay, possibly, but I know I have my opinions about LBJ. Saying no more!!

Before the election in 1968, an agreement was reached to end the war. Nixon sabotaged it ... 5000 more Americans died so Nixon could be elected ... as well as more allied deaths. Peace with honor, as Nixon stated it, was never honorable.
4:28 am
worzel
To be honest I neither liked or disliked Nixon. He made a lot of bad decisions, but like all leaders he was probably misled by his advisers. Mind you, he was a stubborn bugger!!
4:29 am
o-o
I have absolutely no respect for Nixon.
4:30 am

He allowed more people to be killed as an expediency

I don't think there's been a good US president for decades. Same with UK prime ministers - nobody decent since Churchill
4:32 am
Haz1558
Churchill set the bar pretty high, though.
4:34 am
worzel
Very true. He was a pretty good bloke. Mrs Thatcher could have taken a few leafs from his book lol
4:35 am
Haz1558
I think her problem in the end was that Mrs Thatcher believed her own publicity and thought that she was the natural successor to Churchill.
4:36 am
worzel
She could have been a good PM - well, she was to start with. I think her problem was that unlike most other PMs she never took anybody else's advice into account - she was TOO stubborn. Yes, Churchill was stubborn, but always listened to advice. She became too wrapped up in herself, sadly
4:36 am
Patxxx
Let's not talk politics please because I was/am a Thatcher fan.
4:37 am
worzel
OK Pat sorry - but to be fair we all have our opinions. But you're right, maybe this isn't the place! Back to words!!! Sorry x

Okay, Pat, I'm about to head off to walk the dog. He's getting increasingly impatient.

The oldest plant scientists have brought back to life is a 32,000 year old strain of the flower Silene stenophylla; they recovered the seeds from a prehistoric cache left behind by a squirrel.

Nov. 7, 2013 — Professor of Genetics Scott Williams, PhD, of the Institute for Quantitative Biomedical Sciences (iQBS) at Dartmouth's Geisel School of Medicine, has made two novel discoveries: first, a person can have several DNA mutations in parts of their body, with their original DNA in the rest -- resulting in several different genotypes in one individual -- and second, some of the same genetic mutations occur in unrelated people. We think of each person's DNA as unique, so if an individual can have more than one genotype, this may alter our very concept of what it means to be a human, and impact how we think about using forensic or criminal DNA analysis, paternity testing, prenatal testing, or genetic screening for breast cancer risk, for example. Williams' surprising results indicate that genetic mutations do not always happen purely at random, as scientists have previously thought.
5:44 am

Wow! o-o thank you for that info. It has set my mind buzzing and is true food for thought.

6:10 am
Jacula

6:12 am
crosshair

Veterans day is a farce full of platitudes that do not reflect the veteran's status as a commodity and budget item.

In Flanders fields the poppies blow
Between the crosses, row on row,
That mark our place: and in the sky
The larks still bravely singing fly
Scarce heard amid the guns below.
We are the dead: Short days ago,
We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,
Loved and were loved: and now we lie
In Flanders fields!
Take up our quarrel with the foe
To you, from failing hands, we throw
The torch: be yours to hold it high
If ye break faith with us who die,
We shall not sleep, though poppies grow
In Flanders fields
Composed at the battlefront on May 3, 1915
during the second battle of Ypres, Belgium

yeah war is pretty stupid and one can only honor the fact that individuals are willing to sacrifice - even if the larger picture is - not something we can understand or agree with

Half a league half a league,
Half a league onward,
All in the valley of Death
Rode the six hundred:
'Forward, the Light Brigade!
Charge for the guns' he said:
Into the valley of Death
Rode the six hundred.
'Forward, the Light Brigade!'
Was there a man dismay'd ?
Not tho' the soldier knew
Some one had blunder'd:
Theirs not to make reply,
Theirs not to reason why,
Theirs but to do & die,
Into the valley of Death
Rode the six hundred.

Veteran's Day annoys me. You thank them today, but cut food stamps last week knowing full well that 900,000 military families depend on food stamps every month to survive. Not to mention those who are no longer serving.

here is a good story though. this is how i heard that gladiatorial contests came to stop. a monk had gone to rome and in to the stadium and he didn't know exactly what they did there or how horrifying it would be or something, i guess. but when he saw the men battling to the death, he forced himself down to the edge of the ring and yelled out, "in the name of Christ, forbear!" nothing happened at first but he kept yelling and i think got into the centre himself and yelled it again. and the audience saw him and got quiet wondering what would happen. and i think the soldier who was fighting the slave came over and stabbed him. and as he lay dying he called out again weakly, "in the name of Christ, forbear!". and in the silence the rest of the crowd was suddenly able to realize the horror of what they'd been doing for sport, and there were no more gladiatorial fights in rome. now that is a worthwhile sacrifice.
9:16 am

invictus makes an excellent point - we should put our money where our mouth is. way too many homeless veterans out there.
9:19 am
invictus
They come home and have nothing to help them while they get back on their feet. We don't provide mental health care, and many times, don't provide physical health care. There is no training to help them re-enter civilian life. We help prisoners transitioning back to freedom more than we help our military! It is sickening how everyone just thinks saying thank you is enough.

Hello, everybody. Sprite, I just laugh so much at that "dictionary" you have in your profile text! Some of those words would be useful.
1:16 pm
sprite
hi Volta! It is such fun compiling it! Yes, some words really should be part of the official language.
1:17 pm
ChrissieDee
No one could ever think you were being nasty sprite, I knew you were just funning
1:18 pm
sprite
was just thinking about a new one for today's grid: in5tr4 - when you are so restless you cannot sit still inside
1:18 pm
sprite
thanks Chrissie. I'd never want to hurt someone's feelings. Am just rather flippant, I fear ;)
1:18 pm

I particularly like "menslide". I could do with a few more of those happening ;-)
1:19 pm

ah yes! Great one, that. Can't wait to see one.
1:19 pm
ChrissieDee
Who gave us "hangry" last week? - I've used it and passed it on already
1:20 pm
Volta
I guess in this kind of environment, it would be more of a manvalanche.
1:20 pm
zambie
Sprite, I don't believe you have a 'nasty' bone in your body - yes, we all say or do things, sometimes without thinking through how they appear, it's a shame to see bad feelings created in Babble, it's such a friendly and helpful group
1:20 pm
sprite
I believe that was hurshy. Brilliant word.
1:21 pm
sprite
thanks flosey. Yeah, and babble has weathered a couple of storms already. The babble community as a whole is rather stable, thank God.
1:21 pm
sprite
nice one, Volta :)
1:22 pm

no, it wasn't hurshy, it was carleekat.

hangry is a regular word in our household, it describes me to a T when my blood sugar is low

am good, mael. Working incredibly hard in therapy but getting results, so it isn't too bad. And how are you?
1:27 pm
mael
I'm good, starting to freak out about having a baby in April. It seems to far away and so close at the same time :)
1:27 pm
ChrissieDee
Congratulations mael ;)
1:28 pm
sprite
ooooo exciting! Oh yeah, and a little later you will feel like you have always been pregnant and it will never end... and then all of a sudden it is almost time and you think of a thousand things you'd wanted to do before giving birth...
1:28 pm
mael
thanks chrissie! It's really exciting and terrifying!
1:29 pm
mael
haha, I'm halfway through and it already feels like forever
1:29 pm
ChrissieDee
And when the bump starts getting big, and you think about how it has to enter the world, then you'll really freak!
1:29 pm
sprite
you'll be fine. It comes naturally. Have faith in yourself and in your baby :)
1:29 pm
MimiCat
Mael, I thought being pregnant was a lot like being possessed....never in total control. Amazed I did it 3 times. But thought childbirth itself was fairly easy...I've had migraines that hurt more.
1:29 pm
mael
what do you mean, Chrissie? I've always heard a stork shows up on your due date
1:29 pm
sprite
argh yes, Chrissie. And then near the end you think: "I don't care how big it is, it goes OUT!"
1:30 pm
sprite
you mean babies don't come out of the kale?
1:30 pm
mael
you find them under mushrooms in the woods
1:31 pm
sprite
ah! Of course, mushrooms. Should have known.
1:31 pm
mael
and speaking of hangry. You ain't seen hangry until you meet a starving pregnant woman
1:31 pm
sprite
but that about the stork is true. Only, when my girl was born, on Feb 3, it was so cold the stork couldn't make it. Had to wait for hours until the penguin waggled in.
1:32 pm
sprite
oh mael, too true :) Hormones and low blood sugar... never a good combination.
1:32 pm
ChrissieDee
Poor mael, or is it poor mael's hubby?
1:32 pm
mael
hahaha sprite, hopefully by end of March/beginning of April it'll be pleasant stork weather. Though, knowing Boston, we could have a freak snowstorm that day
1:32 pm
Volta
As an unplanned baby, I have always been told that the first eighteen years of my life were making up for it, and the other six have just been bonus time ;-)
1:32 pm

1:33 pm

awwww that is so sweet, Volta!

ohhhh bad craving! First pregnancy, mine was apples.

1:35 pm
Volta
How many children do you have, Sprite? I can't imagine being pregnant. In this day and age it feels so natural. Can't they just, you know, laser the baby out?
1:35 pm
mael
apples! if only! though now that clementines are in season I'm eating those like they're going out of style
1:36 pm
sprite
oh and both pregnancies... all I could see and all I bought was orange clothing! It was so bad that I had to ask my husband and my friends to stop me from buying more orange clothes.
1:36 pm
sprite
I have 2, Volta. A boy of 17 and a girl of 15 now. Yeah, wouldn't that be nice. Having a baby is quite a job. But worth it.
1:37 pm
mael
hahahahah, orange clothes, that is so weird and awesome. But I love orange, too, so I might not have minded!
1:37 pm

thnx flossey for the URL - got to see the picture - would love to meet some of these "names" that we see every day in the chog

Final word big cat, and finished!

Congrats, Chrissie!

Hey guys, has anyone seen Molly around?
3:31 pm
ChrissieDee
ty, ty
3:32 pm
ChrissieDee
No, miss her dry humour :(
3:32 pm
Jillyjill
Miss her calling me wooty!
3:33 pm
zoozzoom
Not for a while now no...I understand she has accused two babblers being the same person..and that has upset a few people here with things she has been saying in her profile...so she might be hanging low for a while...not sure really.
3:34 pm
Jillyjill
Wow, wasn't aware of that...well I miss her...
3:35 pm
ChrissieDee
There is a photo of said babblers on sprite's flicker. They grow them big and hairy in Canada - great picture guys
3:35 pm
zoozzoom
That might not be the reason why, Molly, has not been chatting..just what i think the reason may be.
3:36 pm
Jillyjill
Ahh, I do recall a cryptic post by crossy...and they could be brothers!! LOL
3:36 pm
ChrissieDee
I made Molly an offer she couldn't refuse before, but she did refuse it :(
3:38 pm
zoozzoom
Well i never turn down chocolate...if thats what is being offered :-)
3:38 pm
Jillyjill
It's just sad when this usually jovial and supportive group has an upset. If someone says something I don't like...I lurk..
3:38 pm
Jillyjill
Chocolate, did I hear chocolate??!!
3:38 pm
ChrissieDee
Will get chocolate for you zooz :)
3:39 pm

Teehee..hands off, Jilly, It is mine ALL mine hahaha

zoozzoom
Oh ok....i will share it...one square for you....two for me....one square for you....two for me....fair?
3:40 pm
lynxxx
Miss Molly has put others offside before this current incident. As well as those constant nasty remarks and icons she puts up every other day. She is the reason I don't chat as much anymore and invariably hide the 'chat'. That being said - good morning to you all!
3:41 pm
Jillyjill
Hey, I'll live with 1/3!!
3:41 pm
lynxxx
...a nd no thanks - too early for chocolate
3:41 pm
Jillyjill
Hi there lynxxx!
3:41 pm
zoozzoom
Hello, Lynxxx!
3:41 pm
Jillyjill
<----believes it is NEVER too early for chocolate
3:42 pm
ChrissieDee
Hi lynx, sorry to hear you were put off the chat, but glad to see you now
3:42 pm
zoozzoom
Actually..i would share it half & half...i am very fair when it comes to sharing :-)
3:43 pm
Jillyjill
Interesting, she was on the "online" a moment ago, now not...oh well..
3:43 pm
ChrissieDee
Except for lindor balls, don't share them
3:44 pm
Jillyjill
I do have to admit a few ruffled feathers at times, but I am fairly good about blowing things off
3:44 pm
Jillyjill
LOVE lindor balls!
3:44 pm
zoozzoom
ooooh they are delish...Chrissie.
3:44 pm
Jillyjill
any truffle like creation infact!
3:45 pm
ChrissieDee
Better than any other guilty pleasure
3:45 pm
zoozzoom
Well i love chatting to you, Lynxxx, Or anyone for that matter....not that i am very good at chatting...and i do talk some crap most of the time..lol
3:45 pm
ChrissieDee
No you don't zooz :)
3:46 pm
zoozzoom
Belgian chocolates are my faves..although they are pricey & very fattening.
3:46 pm
lynxxx
Hey I don't come here for 'deep' conversation Zooz...its for fun and relaxation. You suit me perfectly
3:47 pm
zoozzoom
Not that i will ever get fat...i can eat anything and never put weight on.
3:47 pm
zoozzoom
((Lynxxx))
3:47 pm
ChrissieDee
Used to be like that zooz
3:48 pm
ChrissieDee
Not so much nowadays
3:48 pm
Jillyjill
((group hug)) I like having fun in the chog and a good laugh-but not at anyone's expense!
3:49 pm
Jillyjill
<---envious of zoozzooms ability to not gain weight. I fight to keep it off daily!
3:50 pm
ChrissieDee
Me too, I like like the light hearted banter, diverse clues and amazing support when needed. Still love it all as a lurker on days when I don't feel like chatting
3:50 pm
zoozzoom
I hear many people whom struggle with their weight..i do feel guilty sometimes.
3:50 pm
zoozzoom
Wel untill the next chunk of chocolate anyway :-)
3:52 pm
ChrissieDee
Calling it a night now. Have fun all, see you tomorrow.
3:52 pm
Jillyjill
LOL...well, since I lsot 81 pounds 3 years ago, I am very diligent now. I can enjoy myself even weekly, but have to get back on program. I don't allow anymore than 3-4 pounds to creep on
3:52 pm
zoozzoom
Sweet dreams, Chrissie :-)
3:52 pm
Jillyjill
ni5/10s chrissiedee..sweet sleep!
3:52 pm
lynxxx
bye Chrissie
3:53 pm
zoozzoom
Well done for all that weight loss, Jilly, That is an acheivement.
3:53 pm
lynxxx
Congrats Jilly! what program/diet did you do
3:53 pm
Jillyjill
Took a year. I do smile at Molly's chiding me about my lemon water, but I will not go back!
3:53 pm
lynxxx
I do not understand what that re9/10 means at all, just saying
3:54 pm
Jillyjill
4 sessions of HCG injections, now just watching carbs and calories
3:54 pm
Volta
Sorry to break in, but congratulations, Jillyjill! If losing weight is the 'easy' part, keeping it off is definitely the hard part.
3:55 pm
lynxxx
...and a LOYT of willpower - well done you
3:55 pm
Jillyjill
Me either lynnxxx...guessing it's a compound
3:55 pm
zoozzoom
Just at the moment it is ignited.
3:55 pm
Jillyjill
Hi volta..TY!
3:55 pm
Jillyjill
ignition from the 1970's perhaps ;)
3:56 pm
zoozzoom
Yes i have heard keeping weight off is the hard part..only as you are in it for the long haul i take it.
3:56 pm
zoozzoom
Hello, Volta.
3:56 pm
Jillyjill
Yes, I spent a good part of my life losing and gaining...vowed not to do that this time. Too old...
3:58 pm
Volta
I used to be a pretty chubby kid (boarding school diet!) but I'm grateful that I was able to change my eating habits early. Just have to deal with the hourly steak cravings, obviously.
3:58 pm
Jillyjill
LOL...mine is bread...
3:59 pm
zoozzoom
I think if their are no health issues surrounding your weight and you feel happy within yourself on how you are..then why diet.
3:59 pm
zoozzoom
I love bread too..i eat it everyday.
4:00 pm
lynxxx
ah Zooz - thats what all the chubby people say but it gets away from them - and then they age and it gets worse and all these health issues start happening ( yes, I am overweight)
4:02 pm
zoozzoom
Yes good point, Lynxxx.
4:02 pm
Jillyjill
Well, at 216# (98kg) I was so at risk for diabetes...and so over my BMI...I would love to be 10 # lighter than I am...but it's not going to happen
4:02 pm
lynxxx
...a couple of kids and a work career sitting down for many hours and bad eating...boom
4:03 pm
Volta
An inactive lifestyle is the danger I think, Lynxxx. It's impossible because in most jobs, that's the kind of thing that's impossible to get away from, especially if you don't necessarily have time to yourself to work out.
4:04 pm
Jillyjill
I certainly hope one of these days they can figure out why some people put it on and others cannot
4:05 pm
lynxxx
I agree Volta.
4:05 pm
zoozzoom
Well i am off to bed with a book...I do hope to see you, Lynxxx, Jilly & Volta again soon...happy babbling...byee!
4:06 pm
lynxxx
sweet dreams Zooz
4:06 pm
zoozzoom
Yes, Jilly it amazes me on how much i can eat and not put on anything...i am the same weight i was when i was 19 and i am 49 now..lol.....*poof*
4:06 pm
Jillyjill
Sweet sleeps zoozzoom! Nice chatting with you!
4:08 pm
lynxxx
I must be off for a bit - see you later
4:10 pm
Jillyjill
SEe you later lynxxx!

5:22 pm

5:22 pm
Kaplan the Magne

hi joso
5:59 pm
Lizlin
Good morning all :)
6:00 pm
Lizlin
Hi Joso - hope you enjoyed the babble meet. Lovely photo (and icon) :)
6:01 pm
joso
:) it was great, an interesting mix of people
6:01 pm
Lizlin
It's always good to be able to put faces to names.
6:16 pm
joso
it was weird in that regard, i envision people even if I haven't seen them. I thought crossy would look like the tilly hat guy, yet he was younger and a little plumper, but very quickly you recognize a familiar personality. His wife came too, they are very happy with each other, obviously in love, and protective of each other. Flosey however was much as I expected, older, trim, and well but together, every inch a lady. Quiet, but with an inner strength.
6:18 pm
Lizlin
That's really interesting. I like what you say about personality - I think (hope) that most people, who chat here, give a little bit of themselves! Of course, we know some people are skilled at creating a different persona but I like to think that they're in the minority. Flosey looks as I expected! I'd seen pics of Crossy before and you, strangely, remind me strongly of a younger version of my cousin's husband,who also lives in Toronto!
6:20 pm
joso
your poor cousin
6:21 pm
Lizlin
There's nothing wrong with looking like you or my cousin's hubby. You look very nice - a warm person.
6:22 pm
joso
hehehe, fishing for complements can pay big dividends
6:22 pm
Lizlin
You didn't need to fish for that!
6:27 pm
mab
it was such a pleasure to see you, crossy and flosey (who looked radiant) on fb, joso.
6:30 pm
joso
we left the restaurant into a blustery day with on and off rain, I was half afraid flosey would blow away. The meeting place was near her, and she said she could easily walk home, so I thought it would be 2 or 3 blocks away, but i offered her a ride anyway (almost didn't as my car is such a mess). Glad i did, it turned out to be something like 10 or 15 blocks away, if I hadn't offered I'm sure she would have marched on out without further complaint. And she was very gracious about my messy car, told me it made her feel at home as that is hor her hubby keeps his truck, lol
6:31 pm
Lizlin
lol - that was a nice thing of you to have done, Joso. I'm sure she really appreciated it and it does not surprise me that she's a gracious lady :)
6:33 pm
joso
na, basic civility, I'm sure crossy would have offered if I hadden't
6:33 pm
Lizlin
True but he had quite a journey back home too.
6:33 pm
mab
that is a nice story, a nice memory
6:33 pm
Lizlin
Not sure how far he lives from Toronto.
6:34 pm
joso
about 3000 miles, the other end of Canada
6:35 pm
Lizlin
That's a long journey and it's great that he and his wife made the trip!
6:35 pm
joso
I only drove her to her son's place. much closer
6:35 pm
Lizlin
No - Crossy, not Flosey! I know where Flosey lives. I was almost there in July!
6:36 pm
joso
ah, he, no crossy lives about 2 hours outside of toronto
6:36 pm
Lizlin
That's still a fair distance.
6:37 pm
72 Temple Owl
hello all.
6:37 pm
joso
he is in what Torontonians call cottage country, may have a cottage in the area and drive up for weekends.
6:38 pm

Hi TO - saw earlier that you weren't feeling too good - hope you're feeling better now :)
6:38 pm
joso
good water sports in the summer, and skiing in the winter
6:39 pm
72 Temple Owl
hi liz! thinking of going out to get something for it
6:39 pm
joso
hi TO, how's life
6:39 pm
Lizlin
So glad not to have snow any more, Joso.
6:40 pm
72 Temple Owl
oh it is, it is !
6:40 pm
joso
good for you liz, I am much happier with true seasons, so I guess we are both in the right places.
6:40 pm
72 Temple Owl
i think i need to go to the drug store before i get too comfortable. tomorrow will be extremely cold and blustery, with snow, so now is better i think.
6:41 pm
Lizlin
Feel better if I don't see you before I leave.
6:41 pm
72 Temple Owl
thank,s liz. the way i am babbling, i'll be here. :)
6:42 pm
joso
sounds like your sensible self knows what should be done, but your self indulgent side need talking into it TO, lol
6:42 pm
Lizlin
I do miss seasons, Joso, though there is some difference here but I don't miss scraping ice off my car in the morning and the coldness!
6:42 pm
72 Temple Owl

6:50 pm
crosshair
howdy,liz
6:51 pm
joso
why ashamed, I'm sure you would have offered too, I was just first out to the lot with her.
6:51 pm
Lizlin
That'd be the nature of flosey! But as I said, you had quite a journey home too! I'm just really happy that you all got to meet up.
6:51 pm
crosshair
yes,i had to find a bathroom for my beloved
6:52 pm

6:56 pm
joso
yea, the beard hasn't even gone grey yet.
6:56 pm
crosshair
or when we only have a picture as a guide but no words

6:58 pm
crosshair
and though i still have all my hair,it is getting very,very thin in places lol.bits of scalp showing through here and there but artfully covered up:)
6:59 pm
joso
that, was expected, recognizing the personality after a couple of sentences was the odd, kind of deja vu thing
7:00 pm
crosshair
it is interesting how a personae can be reflected in real life.i type as i am so making the connexion is easy.i am a taurus after all.i will tell you my entire life in ten minutes over coffee
7:00 pm
joso
ok crossy have it your way, you're a wreak, falling apart at the seams, 3 steps from the grave.
7:00 pm
crosshair
did not hurt that after a mere 30 seconds in the seat i was asking where the bacon was;)
7:01 pm
crosshair
lol,no,i like like my body at 50 and my mind at 25 ty.while a 6 pack of rock hard abs would not hurt,i can make do

7:07 pm
crosshair

7:08 pm
joso
a proper lunch must have more than just bacon crossy, can you handle that?
7:08 pm
crosshair
i had that happen to me and the problem was it was and amazing book.was called "down to The Sunless Sea" and it is by David Graham so i put paper towell teen all the pages and nursed it back to health so i could finish

8:31 pm
72 Temple Owl

8:33 pm
72 Temple Owl

gapeach
Wonder if that was ever done to anyone?
9:15 pm
welki
i'm sure :(
9:20 pm
gapeach
Welki, whenever you come on I always have to stop and think that you live in Canada and someone, oh, yes, it must be Westford I'm thinking of, who lives in RI, I believe.
9:21 pm
welki
i'm in canada, but originally from the states
9:22 pm
gapeach
If our government doesn't do something about the amount of money I spend on medicine, I may be moving to Canada......I hear it is less expensive there.
9:23 pm
gapeach
If I were younger, I would seriously consider it.
9:24 pm
gapeach
Sorry, I'm just babbling.
9:24 pm
welki
it's difficult to immigrate, either way (from us to canada or from canada to us) - and for sure, you have to be careful what you wish for
9:26 pm
welki
we've had discussions here before about health care and, even if you were able to come north, you'd have to do some serious research about what coverage you might actually have up here. each province's health care system is different as to what is covered and what is not
9:27 pm
welki
for instance, it's my understanding from speaking with crossy that medication like insulin is covered under provincial health care in ontario. here, in alberta, it isn't.
9:27 pm
gapeach
Oh, I see. I guess there are pros and cons to most everything, eh?
9:29 pm
joso
most often you have to buy medicine until you are 65, then it is covered, but it normaly costs a lot less than us prices, provinces negotiate with drug companies to set prices for drugs.
9:30 pm
gapeach
And that is one of the meds I need. I'm in the "Gap" and have to pay the entire cost until I spend around $4,000 more this year and then January 1, I have $325.00 before they will pay anything. Oh well.
9:32 pm
welki
i wonder if medications are covered here in alberta once you reach 65 - i'm thinking not, since i see so many commercials for supplementary prescription coverage for seniors
9:32 pm
joso
we have a lot of people near the border crossing to buy their drugs here, we don't care but it is against us law.
9:33 pm
mkg
need clue for the r word in second column.
9:33 pm
mkg
nm got it. sorry
9:33 pm
joso
not sure what the rules are for alberta
9:33 pm
welki
i've never understood how you can bring a prescription across a border - doesn't the prescribing doctor have to belong to the medical board?
9:33 pm
mkg
oops sorry. had it anyway. off to pb.
9:34 pm
rururocks
lots of people bring prescriptions over the border it's cheaper
9:34 pm
mkg
i dont believe it is against the law to buy drugs abroad from the u.s. i see adds for drugs from israel, thailand, and indonesia and phillipines.
9:35 pm
mkg
i hate that the drugs are so expensive here. it is so wrong.
9:35 pm
welki
how would the pharmacy know the prescription is legitimate?
9:35 pm
rururocks
good question welki
9:35 pm
joso
it's on a prescription pad
9:36 pm
welki
uhm - you could print out a prescription with a word program, that's what my physician does
9:36 pm
mkg
my son once ordered meds from somewhere in asia which were illegal, just to see if they would arrive. he paid something like 5 dollars for so upper and it arrived. he was shocked. he tossed them because he wouldnt trust that they were not just sugar cubes but still he was very suprised. that was over 15 years ago.
9:37 pm
joso
I'm not sure of the details welki, but I do know seniors are renting busses, coming up, and getting 6 month prescriptions filled.
9:37 pm
rururocks
you and crossy look related Joso
9:37 pm

that's a good point also - how would you know the meds you're getting are 'what the doctor ordered'
