i was a camp counselor and this one summer a co4 would always come to us at the camp fire and sit on the table and just hang out with us for hours. we dared not touch or feed it but eventually we gave him a name. rob :) rob the raco4. he came back the next summer but the suummer after he did not :( he eventually became the camp mascot :)
2:03 am
Lizlin

Cute story. Shame he didn't come back the 3rd year.

Listening to a Gregorian Chant ... rather haunting and takes me back to time long ago.

I watched a live feed earlier today. So scary.
2:20 am
grannyrose

why, oh, why, can we not live and let live?
2:21 am
cosdem

why cant we just agree to disagree
2:21 am
grannyrose

exactly, cos. what is so wrong with that concept?
2:22 am
cosdem

Even I, one of the most partisian Democrats in the world, have many Republican friends. We agree to disagree and not talk politics.
2:22 am
Lizlin

Same here, Cos. I have a similar situation here but just bite my tongue as i haven't known these people too long.
2:23 am
grannyrose

weeelll, you can talk politics...but once one of you becomes over-heated, then the agree/disagrre concept comes into play
2:23 am
cosdem

I have to be tolerant. I live in El Paso County, Colorado - one of the top 10 Republican counties in the USA :P
2:24 am

I did my best, it wasn't much

3:59 am

hi Kazzer!
4:01 am

rob must assert himself. he is supposed to be the 'head' of the household. tell rob he must lead, or tim will get the wrong idea.
4:01 am
Kazzer99

sorry not been on chog but don't get much time so have been concentrating on the words. I help you have all been fine

4:03 am
Kazzer99

lives been a whirl since the last time we spoke. Mums finally had her cataract done on her good eye and she is amazed by the amount she can see now - not so good for my sis and son cos she can also see the dirt they don't clean up!!
4:03 am
sprite

I think things are a bit too much for Rob. Work is tough, at home he is been doing a lot of stuff, issues with the neighbours and now this again.
4:03 am
grannyrose

mind you, sprite! rob is going to feel pretty lonely without you beside him tonight.
4:03 am
Kazzer99

how old is Tim?
4:04 am
puglet

Sprite, when you and Tim was having trouble before--if Iam correct, Rob did not stand by you at that time but left you on your own to handle it
4:04 am
sprite

lol Kazzer, good for her though! Great that she can see again.
4:04 am
sprite

yep, same thing basically as now, pug
4:04 am

Tim will be 18 in 2 months.
4:05 am

maybe a night or two away will give Rob some me space and time
4:05 am

4:05 am

you got him pegged, Kazzer, lol :)
4:06 am

yeah, kazzer. and in 3 years, they are so surprised at how much the parents have learned...lolol
4:06 am
sprite

lol rose, indeed
4:06 am
Kazzer99

Also chafing at the bit to get out and do stuff you don't want them to. It does get better - not all the time but most times. My sister started at 14 and now Mum and her are best of friends.
4:07 am

there is hope on the horizon then, Kazzer.
4:07 am
grannyrose

and sprite, my boys have turned out fine.they do survive..

England has had it bad indeed. So far we have been spared that.
4:11 am
Kazzer99

see last post. We are lucky because Chard is high up compared to the levels but it is havoc in places. The main railway line from Exeter to the rest of the southwest was washed away and any further weather is just causing more damage. Water levels are still rising as well. There is just no where for the water to go
4:11 am

4:22 am

pain sucks, rose. Very gentle hugs for you and healing hands hovering over the sorest spots. Will think of you and hold you in my prayers
4:23 am
puglet

ahh Rose, hugs
4:23 am
puglet

how about just going to bed in your birthday suit?
4:24 am
grannyrose

i will succeed. i am determined. it is just my weak flesh.
4:24 am
rubyfoo

{{gentle hug for Rose}} I have just had my second set of pain meds and am waiting for them to kick in
4:24 am
grannyrose

{{hugs}} my darling ruby.
4:24 am
sprite

babysteps at a time, rose. Your flesh is not at all weak, and it needs time to adjust.
4:24 am
rubyfoo

But I'm sure my daily pain isn't even close to what Rose is having
4:25 am
puglet

brb
4:25 am
rubyfoo

5th day of walking my nutsy pup and although she is very good and doesn't pull, she walks faster than I'm used to
4:26 am
sprite

it will do you good, ruby, but right now it is hard on your body too!
4:26 am
grannyrose

for goodness sakes! ruby! what i am going through is nothing to what you must endure.
4:27 am
grannyrose

my pain will get less. what ruby is suffering is constant.
4:28 am
sprite

please darlings, don't compare. Take your own pain seriously and try to go easy, tiny step by tiny step forward.
4:28 am
rubyfoo

your pain is acute, so must be more severe. I just hurt regularly, so can live with it, just somewhat carefully. The good news is that walking th pup is doing me a lot of good. I feel stronger and happier
4:28 am
rubyfoo

and she is an angel-dog
4:28 am
sprite

wow ruby, that sounds so good!
4:29 am
puglet

I was able to take my dog out for a walk too yesterday Ruby
4:29 am

4:29 am

lovely, pug :)erne
4:29 am

4:29 am
puglet

Rose, if or when you are in so much pain maybe you should up your pain meds

4:30 am
grannyrose

4:30 am
rubyfoo

what pain meds do you take, rose?
4:31 am
grannyrose

ruby, because of the surgery i am on oral morphine. i am trying to reduce it as i cannot return to work until i am off it.
4:31 am
rubyfoo

I take paracetemol + codeine and it works most of the time
4:31 am
o-o

Life is hard ... that is not news to anyone here.

Rose, maybe, just maybe you might be rushing things
4:32 am
rubyfoo

I took morphine after my surgeries and aside for the unspeakable intestinal problem, it was wonderful
4:32 am
puglet

I think thats about right OO
4:32 am
rubyfoo

but it was shots and/or drip, not oral
4:33 am
grannyrose

yeah,ruby, absolutely. but i cannot return to my work until i am off it. and o-o? thanx, mate. your considerate thoughts help me so much.
4:35 am
grannyrose

ruby, i cannot take preparations containing codeine. my body converts it to morphine too quickly..i end up high as a kite...lol
4:35 am
rubyfoo

not me. I have the constitution of an ox when it comes to meds
4:36 am
rubyfoo

the doses I took in the hospital astonished the nurses (or maybe my pain threshold is just too low)
4:36 am
sprite

that is a wonderful quote, o-o. And the truth.
4:38 am
sprite

pain medication is a very personal thing, I have found. We all react differently to different pain meds. You are the only expert when it comes to your body.
4:38 am
rubyfoo

Do you have that wind, fi4, there sprite?
4:39 am
rubyfoo

I can never rember which direction it comes from. All the different winds have ames: mistral, etc
4:39 am

I had to google harvey bars, I'm ashamed to say. Is that a ripoff of klondike, or did klondike rip them off?
11:22 am

Since Hood has been around way longer than Klondike, I think Klondike ripped them off.

They are significantly cheaper than Klondikes. I will keep that in mind if ice cream is ever in the budget again.

I buy klondikes when they're on sale - they're quite cheap then. Love the ones with the crispy rice pieces in the chocolate

Depends on who is making the outcry. Both teams have their uber and their haterz.
12:50 pm

I think technically, the american dancers had a more difficult program and it was executed flawlessly. However, they don't seem to be as smooth or as asthetically pleasing as the Canadians -- it was a close call.
12:50 pm

And, as fans go, Canadians are the biggest ubers

That's what I thought Bich. White and Davis did a great job and I can't see why people would begrudge them their win.

I've almost finished the en 6/18 grid so here is a story ri 4/7 with clues to en 6/24 your Babble experience. I was very upset when the talk show "The Ch 4/10 took the place of "All My Children". I loved watching Er5/12 Kane! The cr 4/9 at ABC thought they were ca4/5ring to their viewers when they cancelled AMC and fi 4/7d the AMC staff. I wonder if ABC no6/21d that they lost a lot of viewers who je 4/9ed their decision to cancel AMC&the impa 4/6 their decision made on AMC lovers. I, for one, was not en6/21d by the talk show. Suffi4/8 it to say,now the talk show is being cancelled too!I ca 4/5 continue my story since my fe4/7 wants laptop.If I don't give him computer, he will start to yell at me in a nasty to 4/4. How dare he take the computer away from his wi 4/8! He is such a tw 4/8! I hope this story enri4/6d your Babble experience. Hope you were able to deci6/27 my clues and found some more words.I am going to go watch the movie "The No4/4book".I will be back when the computer is fr 4/7 to use again. Adios!

Oh that's right. You folks up north do "winter vacation" instead of Spring break.

We also do Spring break, however, not this year. We had too many snow days! We lost 3 days of our Spring break.
4:00 pm

Yes, phandmd, I am enjoying myself with Babble and CCS.
4:00 pm

Really? You have "winter vacation" and Spring break? You must have less required school days than we do.
4:04 pm

They have a winter break here in Frederick County, between the 2 semesters. I think it amounts to 4 days, Can't remember for sure how long it is.

7:20 pm
Bugsaw

always good to hear after your terrible time last year!
7:20 pm
uusue2

he is struggling again, min, but is getting himself back on track quicker than in the past, so I am hopeful for him
7:21 pm
Bugsaw

I am sorry sue, I missed that your boy was struggling now you two are well.
7:21 pm
Minveryork

So sorry to hear that.What is he struggling with uusue2?
7:22 pm
uusue2

he struggles with school, min. He gets behind on homework, worries about whether he's doing the right thing, gets depressed, withdraws from everything, and then doesn't do very well in his classes
7:23 pm
uusue2

he's failed almost half the classes he's started, mostly not because he can't do it, but rather because he gets in his own way - it is very hard to watch
7:23 pm
Bugsaw

poor kid. he needs to get a couple of good friends to form a study group so he knows he is on track
7:23 pm
uusue2

he started doing this again two weeks ago but is getting back to work already so that is good.
7:24 pm
Bugsaw

withdrawing is the worst thing but feels like the best thing at the time. I hope he doesn't loose a course
7:24 pm
uusue2

a study group would be good but so far he hasn't liked the people he's tried to work with - when he's working hard he really works hard, and they were goofing off too much for him
7:24 pm
uusue2

well, if he can get himself back on track now he should be ok this semester
7:24 pm
Bugsaw

may I have a clue for my last word, please? ta 5
7:25 pm
uusue2
