That's something I don't need - weights around my ankle lmao!!! Mum do you have a clue for the e in the fourth column please? It's my last for nbt xx
2:24 am

my GP was really chuffed at how much strong pain meds i had stopped taking. next step, so to speak....drive the car....
2:24 am
worzel

And I'm glad to hear the hydro is going better for you xx
2:25 am
grannyrose

WTG DIZ!!!
2:26 am
worzel

2:27 am
worzel

Mum I guess the driving/pain relief thing is due to the meds possibly making you droswy
2:27 am
worzel

drowsy, even!!
2:28 am
grannyrose

yes, love. they also impair my judgement and reaction times.
2:29 am
worzel

I remember that feeling - although with me it was alcohol, in my younger days, that impaired my judgment - in more ways than one lol. Thank goodness I've matured. I say matured . . .

2:33 am

np's worzel...i am done here. probably not a lot of players on at the moment. had the grandkiddies with their daddy here today. lolol...talk about turn a house up-side down in milliseconds.
2:35 am
worzel

I don't have children nor although I did have step-grandchildren when I was with my first wife - two adorable girls called Ellen and Sirena and I think in the entire ten years I knew them they not once misbehaved. Not that your grandchildren do, of course, I was just saying lol. I think the great majority of kids these days get a bad name because of the odd few that really aren't nice, but it doesn't make me feel paternal lol. I always say "I'll make an excellent babysitter - at least you get to hand them back!!"
2:39 am
Lizlin

Hi all:)
2:39 am
grannyrose

hey ya liz
2:39 am
worzel

Morning Liz xx
2:39 am
Lizlin

I'm sure you've had a wonderful day with the gkids, Rose.
2:40 am
Lizlin

Understand what you're saying, worz. Taught primary and loved it but never wanted my own kids.
2:40 am
grannyrose

they are so sweet. and baby braxton is going to have blue eyes, and blod curls. he is such a happy baby.
2:41 am
grannyrose

ummm...that would be * blond*
2:41 am
Lizlin

You'll have to update his pic in your profile.
2:42 am
worzel

My first wife was 17 years older than me and already had an adult daughter but she went through a phase in our early marriage where she wanted a child by me. I wasn't really up for it, but didn't have the nerve to tell her. Thankfully it didn't happen for us, but then, everyone says I'd make a wonderful Dad because I'm so easy going and fun (apparently) but I think it's something in your DNA that you either want children or you're not that bothered. I don't dislike children, don't get me wrong, it's just not something that's ever been of interest to me x
2:42 am
grannyrose

liz, we are all getting together for easter. new pics will be available then. oh, and i am going to deacon's first football game, he is playing for the under 8's, and he's only 5.
2:43 am
Lizlin

Oh! That's so cute Rose. I can just imagine you cheering him on.
2:44 am
Lizlin

I'll look forward to the new pics.

Good luck, Rose. But if it gets too much for you, take something. I know you want to be off the meds but ...
3:32 am
sprite

you are in my prayers all the time, hun. And you can do it. Just remember to take it really easy. Can't expect your body to do everything you do now without any pain meds... you need to take it easy.
3:32 am
grannyrose

i have to be free of this drug in order to drive the car...*sigh*
3:33 am
sprite

in time, it will all happen, rose. The only way to mess things up at this stage is to hasten it. Patience, my dear. First and formost with yourself.

3:48 am

how's Don doing, rose? Any lingering muscle pains from the near-collision? And over his feelings of guilt?
3:49 am
grannyrose

true, sprite. but for now, i will have to rely on my school-girl french, enhanced by one of my grand-fathers, and my latin, from the other grand-father.
3:49 am

not bad at all there, rose :)
3:51 am
grannyrose

no, dear...lolol...but from having to dig trenches out of the clay...his arthritis in his shoulder and arm is very painful. i have promised both of us a massage tonight with the pain away arthritis cream.

yes, dear. much better this time. thanx. returning to work hopefully on the 29th april.
4:58 am
MimiCat

Good for you! I know you had it rough there for awhile. I'm really enjoying my patio. My silk trees with solar lights and color-changing stars make my little home magical every evening at dusk...happy.
5:03 am
MimiCat

Whoa---red box alert there for awhile!
5:05 am
grannyrose

yup...my last post got lost. :-(
5:06 am
MimiCat

I'm actually surprised more things like that don't happen with all those ions traveling through the air!
5:06 am
grannyrose

as i was saying....before being so rudely interrupted...you never know, mimi...one day i will be there to enjoy it with you.
5:07 am
MimiCat

Is there really a chance you might be coming for a visit? Love to meet you! I'm actually considering a trip to your area at some point as well.
5:08 am
grannyrose

hey, maybe we can meet halfway. yes, dear, with the monies from my mother's estate, next august i will be FREE.
5:09 am
MimiCat

Fabulous!! Good for you! I finally have a court date for my lawsuit so hopefully will get a settlement in June.
5:10 am
grannyrose

oh, wow!!! wouldn't it be wonderful!!
5:11 am
MimiCat

I'm planning to put most of it into investment money for the future but will have fun with part of it...travel is my first priority.
5:11 am
grannyrose

mimi, if i can't return to work this time, the company are going to have to pay me out. i am going to give it my best shot, but sometimes the pain is so bad.
5:12 am
MimiCat

Depending on how much you like work, why not just take the money and run and enjoy?!!
5:14 am
grannyrose

yeah, i know. but i love my work...and i love being not at work....i don't know...i just have to try...i don't like admitting defeat...:-(
5:15 am
MimiCat

I know you'll do the best you can but there are so many options still open to you for reinventing your life...you'll be fine either way.
5:16 am
grannyrose

yes, dear. and i hope the court decision goes your way, too.
5:18 am
MimiCat

If not, I'll be fine. After what I've been through the past 3 years, I'm just now happy to be in good shape again. I've decided that the best adjective to describe myself is tenacious!
5:19 am
grannyrose

ditto here, hun. hang in there, sweetie. i'm rooting for you...
5:22 am
MimiCat

Considering that I was seriously considering suicide at one point, there's very little that gets me down now. I'm just happy all the time and planning to stay that way. So good coming out on the other side of something terrible, isn't it?
5:22 am
grannyrose

oh, dear....jaw-breaking yawns here. i have made our bed up with my new egyptian cotton sheets today. they felt so lovely and soft. i have been awake since 4am, and it is now nearly 9:30pm. i think i might sleep tonight.
5:22 am
MimiCat

Am enjoying writing my book as well...though it's a slow process.
5:23 am
grannyrose

yes, mimi...yay for you, writing a book!!! not a thing i would consider doing...a tad out of my comfort zone...lolol
5:23 am
MimiCat

Good for you...enjoy those sheets and get really cozy.
5:25 am
grannyrose

mimi, i cried for 2 days about 2 months ago...and drank the better part of a bottle of bourbon. no repeats...and have had grief counselling since. so i, too, am gonna make it. you and i...we are survivors.
5:25 am
MimiCat

I've written all my life...wrote a one-act play when I was 10. I've had so many people tell me I should write an autobiography that I finally decided to do so. Aloy actually made me really good about it since she said it would be a good way to "teach" and show people ways to get to the other side of tragedy.
5:26 am
grannyrose

wow!!! let me know when it is printed...seems to me it will be a 'must' read.
5:27 am
MimiCat

I've had a lot of loss in my life but I mostly choose to focus on what I've gained instead. I am now a very strong woman and I'm grateful for that every day.
5:28 am
MimiCat

I never envisioned that I'd end up living alone at this point in my life but I'm really LOVING it. I have so many interests and such good people in my life...I feel blessed. I know my angels were working overtime there for awhile.
5:29 am
MimiCat

And Babble is such an amazing gift! I get to "talk" to people like YOU!
5:30 am
MimiCat

I'm going to make some breakfast and then get to work early so I can have the rest of the day for fun. Get some rest and sleep well, dear. So good to touch base with you. Big hug.
5:31 am
grannyrose

oh, dear, mimi....watch it...my head is beginning to swell. the shoe is on the other foot, my dear. it is MY privilege to get to 'speak' to people like you.
5:32 am

we had a friend who got a card that was mailed 15 years ago!. seems it was badly addressed and ended up in our version of the "dead letter" office where they try to decipher peoples handwriting. Unfortunately it fell between a space between a desk and a wall and sat there for all that time until they redecorated the space. it was then translated, and sent off.
6:47 am

this was correctly addressed, had more than 6 OX dollar in postage, and was in good shape. Hard to imagine

Liz, I am happy with this one even though it will take me forever.

A stamp in the US is 42 cents.

OK but if you want smaller ones, just ask.

so, i pay everything right at the bank or online

They say cheques will be obsolete in a couple of years too. That I can believe easily
6:55 am
crosshair

last time i used a cheque was to set up a void one for automatic deductions from an account. Cannot even remember the last time i actually filled one out
6:55 am
Lizlin

I could be wrong but i think they pretty much are in England. I haven't received a new cheque book for a couple of years.
6:55 am
crosshair

the current book i am using is well over 10 years old and still half full
6:56 am
Lizlin

Mine was useful for sending the odd cheque to my nephews for their birthdays. This year though I just transferred money direct.
6:56 am
crosshair

with 50 cheques to a book, my supply will last longer than i shall
6:57 am
lynxxx

and knowing banks soon they will bring in a large charge for processing any cheques
6:57 am
crosshair

more than likely
6:58 am

That wouldn't surprise me at all.

The ocean was 24 C according to the signs.

Lizlin

It's a tough life ;)
7:07 am
crosshair

it is funny the things you stumble over that you have yet to do in life. For example, I have yet to swim in a ocean. Have never swam in a body of salt water.
7:07 am
crosshair

Tis all fresh water lakes here:)
7:08 am
Lizlin

Where we are the rips are often too strong for actual swimming in the ocean. But I have swum in the ocean - more buoyant than in freshwater. But I prefer a pool.
7:08 am
Lizlin

The Dead Sea is the weirdest though.
7:08 am

Come down to Brookllyn, crossy, I live . 2 streets awy from the Atlantic Ocean. Nice beach too. We can go to Nathans for franks and then take a ride on the Cyclone.

Hi TOwl! I looked as you suggested...going to see a local Zydeco band tomorrow - unfortunately it is a final performance as they are breaking up after 25(?) years

This one, you use the bacon fat (from crisp cooking little squares of bacon) for popping the corn; then you make a sauce of honey and c
10:17 am

was about to say, i imagine you can hold back some clear bacon renderings and pop the corn in that:)
10:17 am

mmm
10:17 am

making me hungry, Helen:)
10:17 am

Sorry - that's honey and Chinese chili sauce, mix the bacon into that, and toss the popcorn in the result. Looks delicious.

Forgot to say -- you pour a little melted butter over the opocorn before you toss it with the bacon and honey/chili sauce. Natch.

I astonnished myself last night - my third word.
10:38 am

but of course. We must not omit the butter. :)
10:39 am

i wonder... i make my own butter from time to time with my antique beater jar.. now, what if i take my bacon salt and use it in my butter preparation instead of regular salt? I WILL HAVE BACON BUTTER!
10:41 am
crosshair

a little of my bacon butter on your BLT with some baconaise and yer all set!
10:41 am
helensgirlkid

Wonderful! The only times I have made butter I was aiming for whipped cream - hard to go on to butter from that - but maybe I just had no idea how much salt to add. Plus, of course, necessity to empty the equipment so could get whipped cream.
10:42 am
helensgirlkid

Need just the right tomatoes, though.
10:42 am
crosshair

it is usually 2% salt for the volume of cream
10:42 am
crosshair

so weigh the cream you use and figure out 2% of that weight and you are good to go
10:43 am
helensgirlkid

I'm not sure I even thought to check - only my Larrouse would have been likely to have a recipe.
10:43 am
crosshair

that is 2% per finished pound
10:44 am
crosshair

but as always it is to personal taste
10:45 am
helensgirlkid

I have tucked a note with that info into my most often used cookbook - not that I expect to be making butter in the immediate future, but the unexpected always happens.
10:45 am
crosshair

i turn my salt into a thick ,smooth paste before adding to beater jar, using as little water as i can
10:45 am
crosshair

you can hold back some cream also and make it with that
10:46 am
helensgirlkid

That's helpful - know that I would have just dumped in the sale, and had uneve, gritty butter probably.
10:46 am
crosshair

you just to not want to add salt granules directly
10:46 am
helensgirlkid

salt
10:47 am
crosshair

yup. for that exact reason, Helen:)
10:47 am
helensgirlkid

Makes sense - butter is a great solvent of sugar, but salt - well oddly much more difficult.
10:48 am
crosshair

and it is nice doing your own butter. You know exactly whay is in it. Not like the chemical sh**storm that is margarine
10:48 am
crosshair

what
10:48 am
helensgirlkid

I am told (not very authoritatively!) that salt also is difficult to dissolve in alcohol - have never wanted to do so, so I can't comment.
10:49 am
helensgirlkid

Fortunately I have avoided margarine all my life - even at my m-in-l's table, because she always put out butter, too - her husband wouldn't touch margarine either!
10:50 am

the density of salt vs sugar is vastly different, as well as solubility:)

I was a huge Star Trek geek as a kid, ...well, okay, as an adult too. When HP came along I wasn't inclined because of the fantasy stuff (I'm a hard core science fiction fan), but the books drew me in. And the writing! Oh, what fun. Diagonally !
11:15 am

HP -- something about the actress that plays Hermione Granger

Yes, we did nan. But I think he was very nervous. Not something I associated with him

i wonder if you can use agraham cracker pie crust instead of making my own crust
3:38 pm
MollyL

Same amount of work. You would have to crumble the crust up from the pie pan to a rectangular pan.
3:38 pm
cosdem

it wouldnt work in a pie pan?
3:38 pm
cosdem

just take off the sides
3:39 pm
MollyL

Oh it might, if you futz with the recipe. My recipe calls for amounts that go in a 9x13 pan.
3:39 pm
MollyL

I don't think it would taste the same though.
3:40 pm

They were all the rage in the 80's. That was back when people baked with real baking things, instead of black beans in brownies. : O

hi smores

Hi flosey :)

My philosophy is, if you are going to make dessert, make dessert. It wasn't meant to be "healthy" it was meant to be a sweet treat.
3:55 pm
flosey

we did go through quite a 'health conscious' kick the second time hubby had cancer - he is a survivor with many humble thanks and we've slowly gone back to a reasonably healthy lifestyle
3:55 pm
smores

lol...yes, the 80's, no low carb, low-fat, fat-free, wheat free, nut free, eggless, or lactose free substitutions at the end of the recipe
3:55 pm
MollyL

Oh don't forget gluten free. Everything under the sun is gluten free lately.
3:56 pm
flosey

I'm with you there Molly. I've beenn laid up with a nasty cold for last 2 weeks - yesterday hubby brought me a "Better than Sex Chocolate cake"
3:56 pm
smores

lol...nice
3:56 pm

and, if not better, runs a pretty darn close to equal - decadent and delicious
3:57 pm

lol Molly - how to turn great cooks away from the kitchen
3:57 pm

LOL..hope you told him it wasn't "better than"
3:57 pm

I'm going with better. Sex is rarely decadent and delicious. : D

it did get quite a few giggles as he went through the store
3:59 pm

I admit, I have experimented with lots of healthy dessert recipes...some weren't 1/2 bad

I was cooking for a couple with serious diet restrictions and wanted to find them some alternatives.

personally, I still prefer all the fat and sugar left right in there where it belongs...lol

I agree, smores, fortunately we have many alternates and those with such allergies are able to enjoy very normal goodies without feeling deprived
4:03 pm
flosey

me too, smores, I love sweets - too much!!
4:03 pm
smores

yes, that is nice, but some just go overboard, as Molly said, it's dessert
4:05 pm
flosey

yup, there are always those who go overboard - we do have to just simply be reasonable
4:05 pm
flosey

no dinner is complete without dessert, is it?
4:05 pm

the GF fad is dangerous and insultign to these who are truly in need of a gf diet. thats all i will say.

I was buying half&half the other day and noticed "fat-free half&half....that is not possible...if it's fat-free, it cannot be half&half
4:06 pm
flosey

the other half might be a bit scarey
4:06 pm
MollyL

I agree Cos, I find it annoying when people jump on the bandwagon when their health doesn't warrant it.
4:06 pm
smores

I know, right? I'm not sure what they put in it
4:08 pm
MollyL

Fat free half and half is a mixture of nonfat milk, nondairy coffee creamer, and thickening agents. If you can dig that.
4:09 pm
smores

yuck
4:09 pm
flosey

oh, yuk
4:09 pm
smores

they shouldn't be allowed to call it half&half
4:09 pm
flosey

a mixture of artificial - hmmm, sound healthy?
4:09 pm
MollyL

It's like margarine, mostly filler and gross stuff.
4:10 pm

I admit, I do use margarine...guess because that's what I grew up with
4:11 pm

People are all about olive oil these days. And it's great for cooking. But substituting olive oil for butter when baking is gross times ten.
4:25 pm
flosey

I take a lot of that with a grain of salt - please don't offer me butter cream frosting made with - - oil? Perhaps there's a time and a place for substitutions but one does have to use discretion
4:27 pm
MollyL

Make sure that grain of salt isn't salt substitute.

I watched the Lincoln movie with Sally Field./ I hated it the first time but loved it the 2nd time. Odd.

The Enable word list was compiled by old men, who wear plaid short, black socks and sandals. They have lots of nose hair and they fart a lot. They are infatuated with obscure mammals and currency of lands no one has ever heard of.

Five year olds can dress themselves. They can pour out a bowl of Rice Krispies for themselves for breakfast. (OK, you WILL have to clean up a horrible mess....) But they are guileless, biddable, dependant, independant , trusting and ultra-cool. Fnurt, I envy you you five year old.

Then you are lucky fnurt. You probably set them a good example

Then again, I can't point to a particular age when my lot were obnoxious. I can truly say I loved every single moment of their growing up. (Can somebody pass the tissues, please...)

Ha ha ha. Well, your honesty is refreshing. Tell me, Jaxx, is he your son or daughter's offspring?
5:31 pm
MollyL

Is he spoiled Jaxx?
5:31 pm

my daughter who is also obnoxious
5:32 pm
jaxx7

Yet my grand-daughter who is also my daughter's child is an absolute sweetie
5:32 pm

Good heavens. I assumed he was the spawn of a son of yours, and you disapproved of the way his mother was rearing him. Interesting....
5:32 pm
jaxx7

I disapprove of my daughter's behaviour
5:34 pm
Soodle

((((Jaxx)))) that sounds like a difficult situation.
5:34 pm
jaxx7

She was lovely until she hit 14 and then she went downhill from there. I look at her and wonder where she came from, and I don't mean biologically
5:36 pm
Soodle

Thats a difficult place to be Jaxx. I'm sorry for your troubles.
5:37 pm
jaxx7

I wait and wonder what she will do next. She hasn't a maternal bone in her body. She is so selfish and her taste where men are concerned is all in her mouth
5:38 pm

And do you have other children, Jaxx?

We have looked after both of them since they were born
5:41 pm

I had a son who died in 2005 - suicide
5:43 pm
Soodle

Oh, poor Jaxx. How awful. My heart goes out to you. That must have been the worst possible blow. (((Hugs)))
5:45 pm
jaxx7

Thanks, Soodle. I think Tim's behaviour overshadowed his sister and caused the attention seeking bad behaviour. He has been dead for 8 years but she still throws up 'it would be different if my name was Tim'
5:48 pm
Soodle

Jaxx, you have an awful lot on your plate. Almost too much for one person to bear. I feel huge sorrow and empathy for you. Can anybody here on Babble help you in any way?

Well, supportive words can help.

Soodle, I have learned to take one day at a time and I try not to look back and I don't plan ahead. That said, I am researching my family tree which has been equally depressing at times.

Oh of course, I should have said Irish or Jewish.

It does help to unburden but it can also, as ruru said, spoil the chog for others
