2:06 am
gapeach

When we moved here in 1977, our real estate lady told me that there was an opening at the club.....so I went and filled out an application.....of course, I didn't get the job because I didn't know anyone here....they are very cliqueish (sp) here. But I did get to see the grounds and the club house.

2:08 am
puglet

Iam just a tad sore yet and a little lightheaded but I think that is due to the meds
2:08 am
gapeach

Thanks, Rose. I will try to get out after the Masters and pollen have gone.....both irritants.
2:08 am
grannyrose

2:11 am
grannyrose

are we expecting sprite in tonight?
2:12 am
puglet

shes suppose to come unless something happen
2:13 am
grannyrose

pugs, when that insurance thingy all happens, and seeing as how your sis also needs her bsl's checked, would it be a good idea to purchase a blood sugar monitor for both of you to use?
2:14 am
puglet

I think she has a extra one, just need to get up to date strips to use
2:15 am
puglet

I cant see as how my sugar could be so high when Iam not a bread, pop or sweeteater and I have lost so much weight too
2:15 am
grannyrose

darling, please email me with the exact model of her machine. or can you get her test strips at an extra low price?
2:16 am

2:39 am
grannyrose

doing well, thanx son. dad's migraine only lasted 12 hours.
2:40 am
worzel

The fence is all but painted - two panels to do, but they are awkward ones because they have young climbers on them. I can move the climbers away a little but I think I'm going to struggle. Some of the planting is done but we are buying more plants today for sowing tomorrow xx
2:40 am
grannyrose

peach, po7, start with the rhyming verse + i am w***, sage, clever
2:41 am
worzel

Give Dad my love, mum. I've only ever had two migraines and thankfully they only lasted a few hours. It's not a nice thing to read, but they were extremely painful and eventually led to me vomiting which, strangely, cured the migraine!
2:42 am
gapeach

Thanks, rose.....I have that one ....need the 1st po7-36.
2:43 am

3:01 am
worzel

I can't kiss her first thing in the morning!!! She'll think I'm up to no good! Moi, up to no good - whatever next? . . .
3:02 am
Lizlin

Up to no good in the morning is good, isn't it?
3:02 am
sprite

and what is with those three Gs in that corner... another waste of good space
3:02 am

Up to no good at ANY time is good lmao!

3:22 am
sprite

am so glad, pugs! How is she feeling?
3:22 am
puglet

are you having trouble with the xp
3:22 am
puglet

she says better but she didnt sound too good to me
3:23 am
sprite

no, but xp doesn't support a game I want to play with some friends. So maybe, now with xp no longer being supported by microsoft, this is a good time to upgrade.
3:23 am
sprite

she probably has felt a lot worse, pugs
3:24 am
puglet

Ive been putting a little back here and there to save up for a new one
3:24 am

ty Liz
3:40 am
Lizlin

Of course not!
3:40 am
sprite

wtg pug! Am so glad. Such an added injury if your clothes are wasted.
3:40 am
Lizlin

BTW - finished Acheron - amazing! Loved it. Taking a break now with the Lackey / McCaffrey brain / brawn book.
3:40 am
puglet

I was more worried about the jacket
3:41 am
Lizlin

Glad to hear that Pugs.
3:41 am
Lizlin

Or making the DH series last longer!
3:41 am
Lizlin

Or making the DH series last longer!
3:41 am
puglet

there was so much I was afraid it wouldnt wash out--but it did so Iam very happy about that
3:42 am
sprite

oh lovely, Liz! So glad you enjoyed Acheron. It is the best book in the series, imo.
3:42 am
sprite

good job, pugs
3:42 am
Lizlin

I would agree - so much to it.
3:42 am
puglet

Iam not to that story yet but I cant wait to
3:42 am
Lizlin

In a way it's sad it wasn't the finale - but then I haven't read the rest yet.
3:43 am
Lizlin

You'll love it Pugs but be prepared to shed tears!
3:43 am
Lizlin

I haven't finished the series yet but can't wait to reread it.
3:43 am
sprite

some good books afterwards too, but not close to the level of Acheron. I cried too. So heartrending at points.
3:44 am
Lizlin

I can see that there are certain things that need to be tied up.
3:44 am
sprite

also made me understand better why Acheron got so mad about Simi and Nick. No wonder.
3:45 am
puglet

Iam surprise they havent made a few movies from that series
3:45 am
Lizlin

Very true. But don't want to say to much because Pugs hasn't read it yet.
3:45 am
sprite

indeed. Will shut up, lol.
3:46 am
puglet

thats very nice of you guys--ty
3:46 am
sprite

yvw and sorry
3:47 am
puglet

sorry for what
3:47 am
sprite

for posting a spoiler
3:47 am
Lizlin

It's horrible when people ruin books or films by talking about them but you didn't really give anything away sprite.
3:47 am
puglet

you guys didnt--np
3:48 am
sprite

oh indeed, about the movies, pugs. So very right for it.
3:49 am
Lizlin

Perhaps - but if a film ruined your vision of Acheron or the other DH characters, you'd be really upset. I think though I love the stories, here I'd rather keep to my imagination.
3:49 am
sprite

hm yeah, wouldn't know who to cast for Acheron.
3:50 am
puglet

I always think the books are better then the movies
3:50 am
Lizlin

Whoever you would cast might be different from me and then from others too. Their image is pretty important.
3:50 am
Lizlin

I agree, Pugs.
3:50 am
sprite

that is usually the case for me too
3:51 am
Lizlin

But I'm loving The Hobbit and I loved LOTR - even though some people debate how true to the books they are.
3:51 am
Lizlin

So sometimes films of books work well.
3:52 am
sprite

I think they did a marvelous job with those books. I love the movies too. And even though the Hobbit deviates quite a bit, it is all fitting. And it gives more info than the hobbit books, since it has some stuff from the silmarillion in it as well.
3:52 am
sprite

the one movie that is better than the book, for me, is The Witches of Eastwick.
3:53 am
Lizlin

I found Silmarillion very hard reading - but that was years ago, so perhaps I should try again.
3:53 am
Lizlin

Enjoyed the film but haven't read the book.
3:53 am
sprite

not my favorite either, Liz.
3:54 am
puglet

Iam not big on movie watching due to the fact I always fall asleep-lol
3:54 am
sprite

the book doesn't have the humour that the film has, Liz. It is colder.
3:54 am
sprite

awww sweet pugs :)
3:54 am
Lizlin

The film has great humour.
3:54 am
Lizlin

Never mind pugs - perhaps when your sugar is sorted, you'll have more energy too.
3:55 am
puglet

that will be nice for sure
3:56 am
Lizlin

I record films on TV then if I fall asleep, I can just catch up when I'm ready. Also miss all the adverts by recording!
3:56 am
sprite

I really hate the adverts breaks. I almost never watch tv anymore.
3:56 am
Lizlin

he 8 pls - and if it's related to the he 5 before it, I don't have that.
3:57 am
Lizlin

Actually I record most stuff we watch - even cookery shows, so we can avoid the adverts.
3:57 am
puglet

I got a few regular shows I watch(when I dont fall asleep-lol
3:57 am
sprite

Liz, a place where copters can land and fly off.
3:57 am
Lizlin

What shows do you like, pugs.
3:58 am
Lizlin

Thanks, Sprite.
3:58 am
sprite

yvw Liz
3:58 am
puglet

the voice--crimal minds, ncis and surviror--thats about it
3:59 am
Lizlin

A good range of shows!
3:59 am
sprite

hehehe... some of those I like too, pugs.
4:00 am
Lizlin

Funny isn't it - from the US to the Netherlands to Aus, the same programmes air on TV.
4:00 am
puglet

oh and I like Steve Harvey too when I can catch him--he makes me laugh
4:00 am
puglet

it is Liz
4:01 am
Lizlin

Do either of you have the Danish / Swedish series "The Bridge"? It's really good - thriller.
4:01 am
puglet

we dont
4:01 am
sprite

when I was a child, we had only 2 channels. Then 3, and then about 5. And almost every day there was something I'd like to see. Now we have 100s of channels and there is almost never anything worth my time. I swear.
4:02 am
sprite

no, will keep an eye out for them, thanks Liz
4:03 am
Lizlin

We've just started watching series 2. Collaboration between Danish and Swedish police - the Bridge links the 2 countries. The Swedish detective is an amazing character - on the autistic spectrum, which makes her really interesting.
4:03 am
sprite

oh sounds good! I always love the Law and Order series with the slighly autistic guy.
4:03 am
Lizlin

I know what you mean about so much choice and nothing to watch.
4:04 am
sprite

all those reality shows. Jeez! What do I care how all those people live? Often makes me feel ashamed to have seen it... it is like peeping.
4:05 am
sprite

*climbs off soap box* Sorry.
4:05 am
Lizlin

Thank you both for the chat - got me away from my own thoughts. Almost time for dinner here but have a few more minutes.
4:05 am
Lizlin

I soooooooooooo agree about the reality shows.
4:05 am
puglet

I hate those too Sprite
4:05 am
sprite

:) Am glad I am not the only one.
4:06 am
puglet

and Iam not a soap opera watcher either
4:06 am
Lizlin

A friend who came to visit got so excited when we drove past the Versace hotel a few years ago. She was happy because apparently "I'm a Celebrity ..." is filmed from there!
4:07 am
Lizlin

I watch one UK soap (for which I won't apologise!!!) but I guess some of the medical dramas I watch are close to soaps!
4:07 am
sprite

oh dear. Don't you sometimes feel like you are missing a gene or something? I just can't get excited about stuff like that.
4:07 am
Lizlin

Actually most of the TV we watch is on UKTV!
4:08 am
sprite

oh some soaps are pretty ok, I think. I remember watching the Bellamy Family... awesome casting and great acting.
4:08 am
Lizlin

Me neither. I have another friend here, who when the last series of "I'm a Celebrity..." finished, went to the Versace hotel to meet the stars and be photographed. Not my scene!
4:09 am
sprite

but to be honest, I like watching soaps best when I have the series on dvd, so I can watch them in one run, lol.
4:09 am
Lizlin

And the jungle in "Celebrity" is actually rainforest about 70 km from here! Oh wow! Excitement!
4:09 am
puglet

I do like shows now and then about fixing up homes and food history sometimes
4:10 am
puglet

I dont think Ive ever seen that show Liz
4:10 am
Lizlin

I like quite a few food shows (mostly UK ones) and also used to watch renovation ones.
4:10 am
sprite

but, but, Liz... if given the chance to walk through the areas where LOTR was filmed... I'd go straight away!
4:10 am
Lizlin

It's actually called "I'm a Celebrity, Get me out of Here"
4:11 am
Lizlin

Have to admit, we're going to New Zealand next year and will go to Hobbiton and to some of the scenery in the South island.

"You have to carry the fire. I don't know how to. Yes, you do. Is the fire real? The fire? Yes it is. Where is it? I don't know here it is. Yes you do. It's inside you. It always was there. I can see it" - Cormac McCarthy

it is a fully thing. My classes I am taking garner me 7 credits in total. There is time for 6 different courses in the year, so one is a correspondence course that I was to " squeeze in between everything else, without the benefit of class time .I am on track to stay in the 90th percentile with the six that are done in class. If I try to cram the seventh correspondence course in there, I know the last courses #5 and #6 will suffer. yes, I will will still get a passing grade, but will most likely end uo with 60,s and 70's as my focus on one thing at a time will suffer. I told the teacher that I am in this for the experience of it all, the joy of knowledge, I am not trying to ram through and get a diploma or degree. There is no power job waiting for me, I am doing this for the sheer joy of learning, and doing it well, not just for the piece of paper.So, I have decided to finish the 6 courses in the 90% range, give them my full, undivided attention, miss the ceremonies this year, come back in September and take a single 6 week course and graduate with the class of 2015 and not 2014. I have waited 33 years for this. Why rush it just to get the bit of paper now?
8:14 am

am I insane, or does this make any sense to anyone other than myself?

good morning, crossy. it makes sense. it's a matter of pride, of personal accomplishment
8:18 am
crosshair

howdy, welki:). Yes, like I say, there is no 6 figure job waiting for me on this bit of apaer
8:18 am
welki

why do something half-assed when there's no pressure to rush through the process - i get it
8:18 am
crosshair

paper
8:18 am
welki

and if there was a big money job waiting for you, you'd probably be conflicted between doing it, and doing it the right way
8:19 am
crosshair

indeed. I put in the extra time to polish that paper from a 60% to a 90% instead of cramming one more subject in there.
8:19 am
welki

hahaha - so if there was ever a time to be grateful the big money wasn't out there waiting for you, this is it!

I took a pay cut to move up North years ago, got rid of the high pressure middle management job, the fancy car and the suits. Now I work for me, not for anyone else. It is easier on the nerves

Totally with you on that one, crossy. I had the huge house, the lifestyle, etc. and now have a much simpler life...am happier now.

Of course, the divorce is a big reason why I'm now happier..

There's a fabulous place very similar to that in Big Sur, California, right on a cliff in a house that was originally bought by Orson Welles for Rita Hayworth. They serve a little lunch and dinner as well. Gorgeous, very isolated and amazingly peaceful.

ML, also someone who, in my opinion, is underrated is Randy Newman. When I sing I do an a capella number of his called "I Think it's Going to Rain Today."
8:44 am
MLFAN17

is that his song?
8:44 am
MLFAN17

such a pretty song. Newman doesnt seem to appear much as he used to
8:45 am
MimiCat

It's Randy Newman. And, of course, though it was really overdone for awhile, Send in the Clowns is amazing...that's Sondheim.
8:46 am

send in the clowns one of my absolute favorites since i first heard it as a kid
8:46 am

Amazon has a great collection of Sondheim work...check it out.
8:47 am
MLFAN17

i have a lot of his songs
8:48 am
MimiCat

Yes...good for you...Bette Midler sang it in the recording studio. I choose that one to do a capella because it has a wide range for me...people are amazed to just hear voice without instrumentation...they get very quiet...it's great.
8:48 am
MLFAN17

mimi acapella is awesome
8:50 am
MimiCat

Singing is the most pure joy I can experience...even if there is no audience. I was classically trained in voice and used to play piano...started when I was 8. Hoping to get my stamina back and get on stage again....I keep my voice tuned.

to me, babblets are words nobody ever uses. Torii is just a plura of the Japanese gates, edh is, I think a Welsh vowel. Erg is just a physics measurement. Babblets tend to me undefinable nonsense words that none of us has ever heard, spoken or read

i'll be using mine everday.i do have a juicer but when i saw this on ideal world the other day i had to have it, as less space taken up, less washing up and your getting all of the goodness from fruit and veg
12:16 pm
MollyL

I have a juicer too and it's great for certain things (carrot juice) but with the Nutribullet, you get all that fiber that you are tossing out with the juicer.

Exactly.Am off to try it:)

Was contemplating getting one. Glad to see it seems worth it

They are definitely worth it Cos. The best place to get one is Bed Bath & Beyond, when they are on sale and you have a 20% off coupon. If you don't have the coupon, I will send you one. I have about a dozen that are currently redeemable.

A Nutribullet is better than most blenders. It purifies fruits and vegetables into a smoothie like drink. Blenders often leave chunks. A Nutribullet doesn't. And it takes up less room on the counter and is easier to clean.

I disagree. Piglet is not overwhelmed.
4:28 pm
rururocks

is Piglet related to our Puglet ?
4:28 pm
jaxx7

He is not included in the same way as Tigger, not in modern versions anyway
4:29 pm

No, Piglet is a little pig. Puglet seems involved in pug dogs.

I know there's days, weeks, and years during the teens that make ti challenging!

4:38 pm

*imagines the fast forward/reverse scene of lillian diving in, diving out*
4:39 pm
jaxx7

perhaps. the main trouble is that he is as stubborn as his mother was (old bat!) and won't accept suggestions that will make him more comfortable. He has to think it is his idea and sometimes that process takes an awfully long time
4:39 pm
lilliann

mmm, not good with bottom going in last and coming out first!! :D
4:40 pm
Babs1

the self likes to be right...human characteristic til one is able to see that and let it go.

A more male characteristic, I feel
4:41 pm

Then let him be uncomfortable and he'll soon learn
4:42 pm

What good ideas. I usually retire to my PC . My granddaughter has been a real star as, very surprisingly has my rascal of a grandson. Jess has taken over the care of the hens and Ash has done the vacuum cleaning. Mind you, there was a small cash incentive for the latter but he did a good job.

It's funny golf should be mentioned. I've just been reading a blogpost by one of my writer friends and she was saying how wonderful it is that her hubby is out for hours playing golf and then in for hours watching it. Gives her time off to get on with writing. :)

No, they have a house which they can't sell as it's too big for a holiday home and too big for the French.They bought it off an English woman last year who lives in France/Spain, i can't remember but it's taken them months to be able to use it as the red tape in France for a caravan is ridiculous!!here you put the same registration plate on the back as your car, but in France it has to have it's own and then loads of other things!!

They've taken it off the market now.They should never have bought it..far too big but they were saying,'well you and your brother will come over with your families'. My brother goes with his family on his way to other places, camping but i did that when we were growing up, and it's not a holiday.Hubby works hard and he needs to relax, not have my mam have a go at my dad and feel like he has to do something..which he won't...which is why they probably don't get on as my hubby doesn't stand down to my mam..we want to go to other countries and be spoilt for 2 weeks

If you're allergic, it might make you it4/6 and scratch until there isn't an in4/6 of skin that isn't pink, or perhaps ce6/21. Let's hope it's only your ch4/6 that is irritated and not your cr6/27, because to scratch that in public would not be co7/36!

7:20 pm

I bet there were some great stories!We used to go to Brittany all the time when i was younger but i've never heard of Mohon, i will look it up later.We used to go to Quimper and other places, which i can't rememeber at the momnet until i look at a map

He (the mad old neighbour who probably doesn't know what soap is, let alone what it's for) once actually spat on a dirty hanky to polish wineglasses for them to drink his home-made red wine from, out of the crusted carafe. They almost died not knowing what to do but not wanting to be impolite, especially in view of the gun and the knife. roflol
7:31 pm
welki

that's when you try to convince yourself that the alcohol in the wine will kill whatever germs are on EVERYTHING
7:32 pm
Jacula

welki - that's EXACTLY what they did!
7:33 pm
welki

jac, i was just looking at your baking photos. what kind of sausage do you put in your sausage rolls? (my husband is drooling over your mince pies - says they look exactly like the ones his mother used to make)
7:34 pm
Jacula

welki - It's time I updated my flickr photos! I normally use Irish pork sausages in my sausage rolls. In fact, I will be making some later for my chap to take on the road with him next week.
7:36 pm
Jacula

Lil - I think my aunt & uncle were the only English people where they lived, too. My aunt's very good at languages, but, and I may have told you this before, she did once make a huge blunder in the butcher's shop. She wanted a big chicken but what she actually asked the butcher was, 'Have you got a big cock?' Apparently, both he and his wife looked momentarily stunned before collapsing with laughter.
7:38 pm
welki

there is one store here that sells Opies food products, including sausage, but i think only the beef ones. the other store, an irish store closed a week ago. the beef sausages would work, i suppose
7:38 pm
lilliann

rofl:)
7:39 pm
Jacula

Welki - beef sausages would work. You want sausages with breadcrumbs as well as meat in them to be moist enough for the filling.
7:40 pm
Jacula

welki - can you get either 'Richmond' or 'Walls' sausages over there? They work.
7:40 pm
welki

checking out Opie's sausage is almost as bad as asking about the butcher's cock :)
7:40 pm
lilliann

Opies Welki?
7:41 pm
Jacula

Why so, welki? Is Google doing its shocking thing?
7:41 pm
lilliann

LOL Welki
7:41 pm
Jacula

lil - It's probably the word 'sausage' that's making the checking shocking. lol
7:42 pm
welki

no no - no word checking going on. "checking out" = examining
7:42 pm
welki

and yes, sausage, as in *ahem* sausage *LOL*
7:43 pm
lilliann

Jac, do you buy the sausage meat for sausage rolls or do you buy different sausages and split them and use the meat for sausage rolls?
7:43 pm
lilliann

I miss my mam's homemade sausage rolls
7:43 pm
Jacula

I remember Googling 'big pink statue' for my mother once to help her answer a quiz question. Even though I have 'safe search mode' on my pc, you would not believe some of the pics that came up!
7:44 pm
welki

lilliann, those brands seem to be available in the bigger, eastern canadian stores - i'll have to ask around to see if any local stores carry them
7:44 pm
lilliann

checking shocking...try to say that after a few drinks!! :)
7:44 pm
Jacula

lil - I used to buy sausagemeat but am finding now that they put all the crap stuff and gristle into those packs. So, now I buy a pack of sausages and skin them and re-shape.
7:46 pm
lilliann

I buy sausages and will skin them and make meatballs or patties
7:46 pm
welki

crap. that store that carries opie's is in ottawa - only 2500 miles away :(
7:47 pm
Jacula

I recently inherited my chap's grandmother's Kenwood Chef and it's got a sausage making attachment. If I can find out where to get natural sausage skins, I'll give it a go. However, I'm not sure I want to Google 'natural sausage skins'...
7:48 pm
welki

any butcher who dresses game for hunters, or makes their own sausage, would likely sell sausage casings
7:49 pm
lilliann

Your'e better off not putting a skin on them Jacs as it keeps all the fat in
7:49 pm
lilliann

Which is why i skin mine now and shape them
7:49 pm
Jacula

Lil - I made Italian meatballs on Friday, but I used minced pork not sausages to make them. I also include breadcrumbs, egg, cheese, herbs and seasoning. They are yummy with spaghetti or linguine with a basil & tomato sauce and garlic bread.

hi welki. yes, jac.. they're heavily into gardening here… spreading manure today, etc…. i'm a bit further north so not quite ready yet.
8:07 pm

My runner beans and tomato seedling are through and I planted potatoes on Friday. Hopefully, I can get some weeding done next week now my broken toe has healed so I can dig, bend etc.
8:08 pm

glad you're healed… just had conversation with this 4 year old not ten minutes ago about breaking toes and letting them heal,,
8:08 pm
Dorens

gosh, tomatoes can't be planted at my zone until may 15.. lucky you
8:10 pm

Dorens - The tomato and runner bean seedling are in the greenhouse. I won't put either outside for a while yet. In fact, I'll keep the tomatoes growing in the greenhouse.
8:10 pm

oh greenhouse? luckier you!

8:11 pm
crosshair

bit of a warning my babble friends. There is a brand new computer virus out there and it hides itself in a seemingly innocent browser plug-in. It is called Caramava. It is a medium level pop-up/ad flooding virus, but still a PITA. My son was kind enough to pick this up at a flash game site for older console games, and unknowingly installed it (and ten other nasty bug) onto my computer, so be careful
8:12 pm
Dorens

thanks for the warning cross,. one thing i like about macs is they seem to be more resistant to viri

I have just been hard at it for half an hour to flush it from my computer;(

That is one thing they are indeed better for.
8:13 pm
crosshair

no, I flushed it before I came on babble
8:13 pm
Jacula

I'm glad you mentioned basil, Dorens. It's a great companion plant for tomatoes, if I can stop the ruddy slugs eating it. I went up to the greenhouse after dark earlier and chucked almost 30 of the b*ggers out of there and off my plants. Hopefully, my dozen hedgehogs, who overwintered successfully it seems, will eat them. Having said that, I'd prefer they didn't because slugs give anything that eats them lung worms. Can't put slug pellets down because that might kill the other wildlife.
8:13 pm

8:16 pm
Jacula

Dorens - You've seen my FB pics? So glad. More to come now most of the hogs seem to be back. Went to the wholesaler's earlier and bought a massive sack of dried cat food to keep them fed. I'm feeding most of the cats from a wide area, too, but heyhoe...
8:17 pm

i've just changed a bunch of passwords cause of that +()$%@^ heart bleed. but it might be a bit of closing the barn door after the horse got out

It doesn't matter as i don't go on FB anymore and they will always get on somehow
8:25 pm
Jacula

True, crossy. I still can't understand what fires the hackers. Is is a power thing or do they get paid. If they get paid, by whom and why?
8:25 pm
crosshair

do not let me scare anyone off of FB but I studied it carefully, analyzed the risks and decided that it was no longer for me.
8:26 pm
Jacula

Actually, what you said about hackers, Crossy, is almost the same think a security guard said about shop lifters in a TV prog I watched on Friday.
8:26 pm
crosshair

some DO get paid. those FB "like" posts for example. If a post gets enough likes, it is sold to the highest bidder for advertising purposes. FB is in business to make money and the people who use fb are the product.
8:27 pm
Dorens

sorry cross,. i use fb , not a huge fan, but i sure don't think i'm the product. think my brains are a bit better than that.

FB was very good for keeping me in touch with my daughter when she was travelling the world, and for keeping me in touch with relatives all around the world. It's also where I talk to old friends from school and other parts of life and where I hook up with other writers.

yes, I understand the other side of fb as wel. it is a very handy thing for many

just passing along warnings as I run across them and site affect me in a negative manner. think of it as a safety tidbit of the day if you wish
8:32 pm

We can talk about either of my cats if you like. Unfortunately, both are just ashes in carved wooden boxes side by side on the bookshelf, each with their favourite toy atop. I'm waiting for my new cats to find me.
8:32 pm
Dorens

what's worse is that i travel down here to baltimore once a month to visit my grandkids, their puppy (and sometimes their parents) and leave hm alone. feel very bad about that, particularly when i go to bed and realize he's home alone missing me.

nothing worse than seeing the first 15 chapters all in clean copy just vanish due to some internet software bug
8:39 pm
Dorens

really? nothing worse? try having your master's thesis zapped and gone, just as you're ready to save it
8:39 pm
Dorens

and you're working a full-time job with three kids as a single mother to boot
8:39 pm

That's a real bummer, Dorens.
8:39 pm

i had one thesis vanish due to a corrupted flash key this year
8:40 pm
Dorens

but there are even worse thing than that, to be sure
8:41 pm

Dropbox, flashdrive, copies on different drives and different computers etc., etc. Especially for a thesis.

jacula, for long term storage, hunt down a DVD/RAM/RW unit. (you may have to special order) unlike dvd/rw/rom they can withstand up to 25 years or more in storage without any degredation at all
8:41 pm
Dorens

ah, but this was over 20 years ago and somehow i survived it
8:42 pm

the radio stations and cable companies use DVD/RAM
8:43 pm
Jacula

Oh yes, I remember those days, Dorens. I had two toddlers at the time and lost something on Wordstar word processor due to a blip in the power supply. I was so incensed that I wrote it again, but on paper, immediately, and somehow it was the better for it.

Just an aside - my daughter turned 27 on 26th March (the age I was when I had my first child) and my son turns 30 on 26th May (the age I wanted to have both my children by). I did and now they are older than I was then. EEK! It's my 57th birthday on 22nd of this month, and I'm still wondering what happened since I was 18. lol

Dorens - I guess you saw my daughter's birthday cake I made her on FB? I'm so pleased she's now showing the photo to her friends. I'm so glad she loved it.
8:51 pm
Dorens

just looking at what you bake makes me fat jacs ..and of course she loved it
8:52 pm
Jacula

Lil - I was just 3 weeks and 2 days away from 30 when I had my daughter, my youngest child. I achieved my goal just in time. A son and a daughter by the time I was 30. lol. Wasn't banking on getting an 8-year-old stepdaughter when I was 46, but it's all worked out.
8:55 pm

I wanted 2 children but because of things going wrong with doctor's treatments i had 1, but i would never be without her,even though there are times we don't get on.i would die for her
8:55 pm
Jacula

Dorens - you know why I know she loved it an ate it? After all those years in a clinic suffering from anorexia nervosa when she starved herself almost to the point of death and used to think that just touching something would transfer fat to her... the relief now, I cannot describe. More so when she asked if it was real butter icing and I tentatively said it was and she told me she was glad because it tastes the best.
8:57 pm
lilliann

I have step children also that are alot older but none of them are talking to their dad or us sadly...i get annoyed, because we've done nowt wrong but even if i have or their dad, they've ignored their sister
8:58 pm
Dorens

your love and patience certainly helped heal her jacs
8:58 pm
Jacula

I'm no longer being 'accused' of anything - not trying to put stuff into her food to make her 'fat', not 'having the wrong boyfriend after her Dad left'. Not being accused of anything any more, but it had to be done as she went through the stages of therapy.
9:00 pm
Jacula

There were times when I felt like the worst mother in the world and only my son (her older brother) kept me grounded.
9:01 pm
Jacula

But then I feel guilty for having relied on him so much to ground me. 11 years ago, I got together with my chap and he's helped me a lot. I don't think the journey with my kids, or his with his daughter is over yet, but we help each other.
9:02 pm
Dorens

lucky you then
9:03 pm
lilliann

That is so sad Jacs, but after everything you went through, (hell, by the sounds of it)you've both come through the other side which means more than anything and that you are now talking...
9:04 pm
Dorens

as the beatles sang, "And in the end,…………."
9:04 pm
Jacula

Maybe, Dorens. However, my daughter is still in therapy and is also studying psychology and her attention is now turned on her brother. Probably not good news for him or for me.
