Not for nothing, pugs. It was lovely to wake up to that e mail.

1:51 am

puglet

glad you got a laugh anyway

1:51 am

grannyrose

i was cross. we got there and nobody around. eventually another lady came out and explained about the physio being sick. usually the clinic sends out a message, but my name was not on the list.

1:52 am

puglet

1:52 am

Lizlin

That must have been really frustrating - inefficient of them too.

1:53 am

1:53 am

puglet

then something nice became of your day

1:54 am

puglet

I hope it didnt upset you Rose

1:54 am

Lizlin

A meal out with a loved one is always good - even better because you didn't have to cook it!!

1:54 am

grannyrose

yeah. i had to laugh when our counselor told us to go out for 'dates'. we already do that, brekky, brunch, lunch, dinner, pictures.

1:55 am

grannyrose

not too much, pugs. more disappointed i guess.

1:56 am

3:23 am

bbl by all be well

3:24 am

sprite

not entirely sure yet, pug. We just cancelled the final session for our family therapy because of the spat between Tim and Rob. But I still have to go out and get presents for Caya. And I don't wanna... it is a big and scary world outside.

3:24 am

sprite

bye pink, you too!

3:24 am

puglet

bye Pink

3:25 am

puglet

Is Caya feeling better

3:26 am

puglet

well you could just give her money and stay home

3:27 am

puglet

or wait until I fly over and we can go together--lol

3:27 am

o-o

With what is going on with Tim .. has to be by analogy somewhat akin to secondhand smoke ... some trauma must be there.

3:28 am

sprite

would love to go together, pug :)

3:29 am

sprite

Rob certainly has traumas. He does not handle aggression very well and neither do I. I am afraid we haven't been able to teach our children how to do that effectively.

3:31 am

sprite

not sure if Tim has a trauma too. I hope not.

3:31 am

puglet

No one is perfect Sprite---and too, it seems common for sons and fathers to go through this

3:32 am

o-o

Well, the current circumstances in view of the past must be shocking to all.

3:32 am

sprite

yes, there is that as well, of course. The adult males in the pack need to know who is boss, sigh.

3:32 am

sprite

indeed, o-o

3:34 am

sprite

but on the plus side, Rob and Tim both went with me to an information meeting from my eating disorder therapy and Tim behaved beautifully.

3:34 am

puglet

and Tim is on the threshhole between manhood and boyhood---and theres not much you can do about it Sprite--its natural

3:34 am

sprite

he was totally himself, relaxed, and made me infernally proud of him.

3:35 am

sprite

that is true, pug, not a comfortable period in anyone's life

3:35 am

puglet

no its not---not for any of you------thats was nice for you to have their support

3:36 am

rubyfoo

good morning everybody.

How to deal with a relationship of trust and affection to one of distrust and aggression is most challenging

3:37 am

sprite

awesome, ruby, you are doing a great job with her

3:37 am

puglet

hope all goes well Sprite

3:38 am

An angel? What is that? I was always angry.

3:46 am

lol ruby, Caya said yesterday that today she will meet up with some friends and hang out in town, chill a bit there... and Rob said no way! Protective dads, lol. I said, sure, and have fun.

3:46 am

o-o

sprite, one thought is to have Rob and Tim deal with one thing at a time ... rather than:

Gunnysacking is when someone silently collects irritations and slights until "the last straw is placed on them" causing an overblown reaction.[1]

Gunnysacking has been described as 'an alienating fight tactic in which a person saves up, or gunnysacks, grievances until the sack gets too heavy and bursts, and old hostilities pour out.

3:46 am

sprite

sleep well, dan

3:47 am

sprite

that is a very good thought and that is exactly what happens with Rob. Will tell him this before their talk, thanks o-o. We call it 'saving coupons'. And then handing them in all at the same time.

there was this young lady named pugs
with a heart filled with loving and hugs
she would reach out to all
gave them friendship so tall
it would kill pain much better than a drug

4:04 am

crosshair

speaking of advancing the thought process, we had one poor young lady totally burn out in class yesterday. We are in the midst of a persuasive essay with a full introduction, a nice thesis statement with 2 main points, three full body paragraphs with three expanded points of each thesis point including at least one in-text quote of each of the statements, then a nice concluding paragraph..poor girl just had a total melt down

4:04 am

o-o

simpatico and away they go ...

4:05 am

4:14 am

I would run, not walk to my banks financial advisor, with lawyer in tow

such a huge amount of money would require a lot of help to learn to manage, I think. But I would be more than willing to try :)

4:15 am

I would have trouble saying no to hurting people

4:15 am

Crosshair, what kind of meditation do you do?

and now it is time for crossy's quote of the day!!, and since I am in a Carl Sagan mood, that is what you are going to get:))...

5:31 am

crosshair

"“What an astonishing thing a book is. It’s a flat object made from a tree with flexible parts on which are imprinted lots of funny dark squiggles. But one glance at it and you’re inside the mind of another person, maybe somebody dead for thousands of years. Across the millennia, an author is speaking clearly and silently inside your head, directly to you. Writing is perhaps the greatest of human inventions, binding together people who never knew each other, citizens of distant epochs. Books break the shackles of time. A book is proof that humans are capable of working magic.”"

- Carl Sagan

Hello, Annie.

7:07 am

Anniebrook

hi o-o

7:09 am

o-o

How is the healing going?

7:09 am

Anniebrook

very very slowly

7:10 am

o-o

Sorry to hear that.

7:10 am

Anniebrook

thanks for asking

7:11 am

Scrabbler

Hi Annie and o-o

7:11 am

Scrabbler

Are you sick or hurt, Annie?

7:11 am

o-o

Hello

7:12 am

Anniebrook

scrabbs, I fell on the ice and I hurt my tailbone..taking aleve and robaxin..can I ask how long does it take for robaxin to kick in ?

7:13 am

Anniebrook

I hope I am not bothering you by asking

7:15 am

Scrabbler

It is a muscle relaxant so may help if you are spasming or tightening up due to the pain, but it may not help. Aleve and ice are your friends. The first 3 days will be the worst, then you will improve.

7:15 am

Scrabbler

No bother, Annie. I always want to help people navigate medical issues. It sucks to be a patient.

7:16 am

Anniebrook

I fell on Sunday. It is getting better but very slowly. You are right about the first 3 days. Thanks for the encouragement.

7:16 am

crosshair

and now, before I head off to class, it is time for crossy's tidbit of the day!!! Do you love and remember those wonderful old radio shows like the shadow or dragnet and many others? Here is a web site where you can enjoy them all again. Everything is sorted nice and neatly into categories and is easy to find:) http://tinyurl.com/k4u98pc

7:17 am

Scrabbler

Inflammation from an injury is maximum for the first 3 days.

7:17 am

Scrabbler

That's wonderful, Crossy. My father would have loved that website.

7:19 am

stidgmere

Hi crossy. I'm the elder. Stidmere is still at work at this time of day.

5:08 pm

crosshair

well grab you cane and a bottle of gin and beat this grid into submission!

5:08 pm

crosshair

it does , however, have sharp teeth

5:09 pm

stidgmere

Yes. Short grids are not necessarily benign.

5:09 pm

crosshair

"it is kind of like those lil yappy mexican dogs that snap at you a lot

5:19 pm

stidgmere

Well. I am ignoring the yapping and just plowing ahead in my super-focused state.

5:24 pm

MollyL

I think the fact that people love yappy dogs and bulldogs is proof of the existence of God. : )

5:27 pm

crosshair

proof is those who love those hairless cats

5:27 pm

MollyL

Oh God, that too. Those things are frightening.

5:28 pm

crosshair

sorry, but to me they look like something that did indeed survive a nuclear hollocaust

5:28 pm

crosshair

but for all i know they are super smart and loving, right?

5:34 pm

crosshair

7:45 pm

DR1965

hi Stid - just got here

7:46 pm

stidmama

hey DR! ((hugs)) how's our thespian this week?

7:46 pm

DR1965

he is good! Getting ready to go to Once Upon a Mattress rehearsal... Shrek rehearsal starts on the 4th

7:47 pm

DR1965

Never a dull moment

7:47 pm

DR1965

how are you doing?

7:48 pm

stidmama

fun -- so busy! not us, just a concert in two weeks (actually March 2), then a couple months of rehearsals and a final concert... on top of the school stuff of course. But mostly the kiddo handles all of it now.

7:48 pm

stidmama

I am... tired. three-day weeks are very difficult I find, as a teacher. I think I am trying to fit the same amount of learning into the three days as would fit in "normal" days... but the kids are not normal on three day weeks!

7:49 pm

DR1965

I know teaching is difficult during a normal week and 3 day weeks the kids Are crazier than usual. I really respect teachers

7:50 pm

stidmama

gah. did I say tired? I really didn't recognize the aw 4/10 when I "monkeyed" it...

7:50 pm

stidmama

I think I should have stuck to admin assisting, or bookkeeping...

7:50 pm

DR1965

: )

7:52 pm

stidmama

:-) how's the weather for you folks? It has been like early spring here. Sunny, rainy, windy, calm, hail, dappled sun...

7:53 pm

DR1965

mostly beautiful... we feel guilty here

7:54 pm

stidmama

oh, I know! I think even the really windy weather was manageable for most of us in relation to the weather of our friends and family farther east

7:55 pm

stidmama

down to 15 and still three blanks.

7:55 pm

DR1965

I am about halfway

7:55 pm

stidmama

I think I will list. Back for air in a moment.

8:02 pm

stidmama

fw need or want any help?

8:03 pm

DR1965

no thanks... I am going to list . have 22 to go

8:03 pm

DR1965

does not seem too difficult

8:04 pm

stidmama

The list helps. I had a few fish, but a number of apparent non-words that were easily monkeyed

8:04 pm

gemini_J13

8:19 pm

stidmama

8:19 pm

stidmama

LOL jes

8:19 pm

stidmama

YAY mkg and sweet dreams

8:20 pm

jesdraggon

sucky, stid. we are still stalled out for weather here - hard to get plumbing done when it's 17 degrees of a morning.

8:20 pm

stidmama

jes, the world's "oldest handbag" apparently -- it is so beautiful in the details... http://tinyurl.com/nzxaomb

8:21 pm

stidmama

I am sorry about the cold -- it's pretty awful to do construction stuff through the winter

8:22 pm

jesdraggon

made of brass? boy that'd get heavy to carry around!

8:22 pm

rururocks

think of the accessories jes :D

8:23 pm

CadFan

Wow - purse it beautiful..

8:23 pm

jesdraggon

but it would be way better for clobbering idiots than my bag... hmm....

8:24 pm

rururocks

be a blast at the TSA counter at the airport too

8:24 pm

jesdraggon

and fireworks

8:24 pm

rururocks

yeah jes

8:24 pm

rururocks

I bet you're exhausted from this grid :D

8:24 pm

jesdraggon

they'd just make you open it, probably. unless they also thought of clobbering, in which case they might just take it aw4... the meanies.

8:25 pm

jesdraggon

i am pretty worn out, ruru.

8:26 pm

jesdraggon

but look, pizza! :) bruce is so good to me.

8:27 pm

rururocks

yay bruce

8:27 pm

jesdraggon

homemade barbeque pork pizza, even.

8:27 pm

jesdraggon

i think i need a cider to go with it...

8:27 pm

rururocks

pork pizza

8:27 pm

rururocks

?

8:27 pm

MollyL

Thank God it's early and everyone can get a good night's sleep before the next tiring grid of 60 words.

8:28 pm

rururocks

or 61 molly.. that would push some people over the edge

8:28 pm

gemini_J13

apparently some people think it is a joke

8:28 pm

rururocks

I had pasta tonight and I feel guilty

8:28 pm

jesdraggon

is there a problem with pork on pizza?

8:29 pm

rururocks

I have never heard of pork on pizza other than salami or sausages

8:29 pm

MollyL

Guilty for having pasta?

8:29 pm

rururocks

I'm trying to stay away from starches and carbs molly

8:30 pm

jesdraggon

canadian bacon? bacon? pepperoni?

8:30 pm

rururocks

we ain't talkin' bacon.. we be talkin' pork

8:30 pm

jesdraggon

where you think bacon comes from, bubba? :P

8:31 pm

rururocks

heaven

8:31 pm

LeslieAnn

haha

8:31 pm

LeslieAnn

you walked into that one, jes

8:31 pm

MollyL

*Fixes Ru a stark little plate of carrots and celery*

8:31 pm

jesdraggon

really though, getting inventive with pizza is good. we had some a while back with chicken and figs and apples and balsalmic on thin crust. it was the yum!

8:31 pm

phandmd

good evening! Small puzzle today. My first time in...

8:31 pm

rururocks

LOL Molly

8:32 pm

jesdraggon

heh. that's right, ruru... avoid those nasty carbs and eat healthy food like bacon!

8:33 pm

MollyL

*So not interested in inventive pizza*

8:33 pm

jesdraggon

why not, molly?

8:33 pm

rururocks

Inventive pizza is often.. "wtf is n the fridge to go on the crust honey"

8:35 pm

jesdraggon

hah. no, that's actually not really happened to me since bruce came along. he plans meals and stuff, it's weird but nice

8:36 pm

rururocks

he's a keeper then jes

8:36 pm

jesdraggon

some of the dinners my brother and i had in college though.... 3 different kinds of meat and 2 or 3 different pastas with random 'we think this is sauce'... heheh.

8:36 pm

rururocks

weird means he's experimental.. and that's ALWAYS a good thing :D

8:37 pm

MollyL

Because I'm a traditional pizza person. I don't have any interest in "improving" on what is already a good thing...to me.

8:37 pm

jesdraggon

always? hmm...

8:37 pm

rururocks

although weird here late at night is something entirely different :D

8:38 pm

jesdraggon

late night weird is often great fun, ruru

8:38 pm

jesdraggon

but good could be made great, molly

8:40 pm

MollyL

It's the traditional thing with me. I don't get why there are now 500 variations on a martini either.

8:41 pm

jesdraggon

because variety is the very spice of life, of course.

8:42 pm

rururocks

*ties fingers*

8:42 pm

MollyL

Yeah, me too.

8:43 pm

jesdraggon

must make it difficult to type, ru.

9:33 pm

rururocks

nah.. i'm used to it

9:38 pm

jesdraggon

you often type while tied up?

9:41 pm

rururocks

I can do a lot of things that way :D

9:48 pm

jesdraggon

hmm. *ponders power exchange arrangements*

9:56 pm

rururocks

that depends on the plug I guess

9:58 pm

jesdraggon

a hahaha hah!

9:59 pm

rururocks

:D .. thought i'd get a laugh out of you on that one

9:59 pm

rururocks

man it is only 8 oclock and i'm exhausted

10:01 pm

phandmd

last word, BA 5/18 pls

10:02 pm

phandmd

nm, I figured it out

10:02 pm

rururocks

10:02 pm

phandmd

Thanks, Ru.

10:02 pm

rururocks

<--too late again

10:04 pm

jesdraggon

10:05 pm

rururocks

Minveryork
