2:58 am

grannyrose

pugs, we have been very busy. don's daughter flies in saturday AM, so i am trying to ready the guest bedroom for her. seeing as it has become an overly large storage room, we had a lot of stuff to move out, and then i found the bed.

2:59 am

grannyrose

* giggle * she'd have to be a miniature...

2:59 am

puglet

maybe Wor could do it for you in his mankini--lol

2:59 am

worzel

3:00 am

worzel

i'd even do it without the mankini . . .

3:00 am

grannyrose

3:04 am

grannyrose

3:04 am

worzel

3:05 am

grannyrose

*chuckling to myself*

3:06 am

worzel

3:54 am

grannyrose

3:54 am

sprite

lolol :D

3:56 am

grannyrose

*giggle* i was stunned by the jeweler's quote for my eternity ring. don said i was worth every cent. besides, he said, you served your ti4. *shaking head* i cannot make him understand what a blessing he is to me.

3:57 am

sprite

3:57 am

3:58 am

sprite

3:58 am

grannyrose

3:59 am

sprite

4:00 am

grannyrose

nice, about your girl, dear. bet she was chuffed at her negotiating planes etc on her own. england? how lovely! i have been looking at tour packages for france, and wondering if we can have an open ticket for departure, that way we can "do" UK, Holland(of course), belgium, italy while we are over there.

4:01 am

sprite

sounds good, rose. I would say an open ticket shouldn't be a problem.

4:03 am

grannyrose

when the inheritance comes through, will consult with bank, try and work out what to leave and what to take...money-wise i mean. have to cover expenses here while we are over there.

4:03 am

sprite

oh yes, rose. You make sure you won't regret any of it.

4:04 am

sprite

I like today's biggies. Can't go wrong with ic* and te*

4:06 am

grannyrose

oh for goodness sake....we are having quiche tonight. i turned the oven on, about 20 minutes ago, and have just been told off because it's on 190 degrees instead of 180 degrees. * screaming very loudly*

4:06 am

sprite

roflololollll

4:07 am

grannyrose

your hubby had better be ready to take my hubby out when we are over there.

4:08 am

grannyrose

maybe he could take him for a long walk off a short pier.

4:08 am

sprite

*grins* They can be so obnoxious, can't they, rose. My husband just asked if I had asked Tim to bring a newspaper from shopping, yesterday. I said no. He said, don't you know I love to have the saturday newspaper in the weekend? I said: even if I had thought about it, no way he could have bought you a saturday newspaper on Friday. Ass.

4:10 am

grannyrose

yay, you, crossy. i have had two good nights in a row. himself is not quite sure what to do with me, despite some very good suggestions from me....lol

4:10 am

crosshair

4:11 am

crossy innocently sips his tea and smiles mysteriously and says nothing...

4:15 am

sprite

fireflies. Have to go, alas. *hugs* for both of you. May you all have a blessed day and a peaceful night. Except rose. She needs an erotic night, and lots of blessings on that, and only THEN a blessed day.

4:35 am

crosshair

((ruby)) and granny sends her love

4:39 am

rubyfoo

no time to jump in now, will be back (she says ominously)

4:46 am

Patxxx

Could the small grids on Saturday have anything to do with Lickety being absent at weekends?

4:47 am

Patxxx

Sometimes being absent

4:48 am

crosshair

well, lickety and dr god are independant of each other, so i think there is no relation other that to perhaps save our sanity

5:08 am

Dianne

Saturday is a great day for good, meaty grid - not one of these puny ones.

5:31 am

PMS

5:38 am

crosshair

these tiny ones are also, more often than not, just a bunch of tiny, annoying babblets;)

5:38 am

Patxxx

Thanks Crossy. Don't know the set-up. Sorry it took so long to reply but it is early cricket season here and two men can't find their spare kit without my help. I purposely never go near the kits except to wash and I hand over the washed gear in front of witnesses. Ta again,

5:40 am

crosshair

lol patxx i can imagine setting up a cricket game on the front lawn here. The novelty of it all would stop traffic

5:40 am

Patxxx

Crossy just sent you thanks but it's not appeared yet.

5:40 am

crosshair

just a slow connexion today:(

5:46 am

Patxxx

Cricket is one of the few games left which is still mostly men, although our UK women's team have just been the world. They don't have rules like no drinking, no sex etc so it is still very much a social occasion. The best part is: no Diva behaviour allowed or you are out!

5:46 am

Patxxx

'Beat the world'. Sorry again.

5:48 am

crosshair

you have a sex break during half time in a cricket mach???!! I think i had better look into the rules of this game again!

5:49 am

crosshair

gives a whole new meaning to the 7th inning stretch!

5:50 am

crosshair

5:53 am

rururocks

Well that would get a lot more men interested in the sport..

ty crossy

5:56 am

crosshair

we have a pair of morning doves outside the window. Nice to hear all the birds once again.:)

5:56 am

Patxxx

Do remember how much rain we get here and that means lots of matches called off, abandoned etc. Stoicism being an essential mindset for the game plus wet sandwiches and a mouldy tan.

5:59 am

crosshair

yes, i remember you were a tad on the dampish side this winter. Over here we were just happy to get the snowbanks low enough so we could see the stop signs once again while driving;)

6:00 am

6:03 am

Patxxx

ovem

6:04 am

crosshair

yes, ruby, the tiny thing has sharp teeth

6:04 am

Patxxx

Sorry but that's not even near the word I was aiming at. Can't spell, can't type and my coffee is cold but the sun is shining.

6:05 am

crosshair

it is like one of those overbred yappy ankle biting dogs that yip away all day long at everything that moves

6:05 am

Foffle

yes, nice here too Pat

6:05 am

crosshair

no sun here, but the birds are in full tune

6:05 am

rubyfoo

<<--doesn't like small dogs (except for Bichon's)

6:06 am

Foffle

I don't hear the birds - double glazing

6:07 am

crosshair

heck with that, it is above 10c and i have the heat off, and all the windows are flung wide open

6:07 am

Foffle

anyone want clues before I go?

6:07 am

rubyfoo

our birds clatter and chatter rather than sing. There's only one merle who sings, absolute arias

6:07 am

rubyfoo

and he is the drabbest boy of te all

6:07 am

crosshair

we have cardinals here and they have a beautiful song

6:08 am

Patxxx

This last week I have had a variety of small differently coloured birds in the garden. Lovely sight but I have cats and end up rushing out and urging them to move on.

6:08 am

Foffle

it's got to get to 20C before my windows are open

6:09 am

rubyfoo

no cardinals or bluejays in Europe, as far as I know, but we have a nice range of small pretty birds plus the occasional Heron (fie on him) , woodpeckers and hawks

6:10 am

crosshair

20c and we start swimming in the bay:)

6:10 am

Foffle

No clues? I'm off then 'poof'

G'day, Aloy.

7:40 am

Aloyisius

hi Scrabbs.. fast grid so far

7:40 am

Marc Freeman

perfect thanks

7:40 am

MimiCat

Yes, he's home. He was only in Children's Hospital 24 hours. He is 3 and his brother is nearly 2 and both had fevers Sunday night. Early Monday only the 3-yr-old developed a full body rash that was very itchy and which started on his legs. Pediatrician gave him prednisone and it didn't help so she asked them to go to the hospital where they ran tests. All the really bad tests came back negative. They still don't know what it was but the other one did develop a slight rash as well. I'm thinking it was some sort of virus they picked up outside. We have valley fever here in the soil and air and maybe they had an allergic reaction to it. Anyway, crisis is over but I thought you might be interested and may have insight.

7:41 am

Scrabbler

Yes, Aloy. I thought I would get stuck quickly as the grid is small.

7:41 am

MimiCat

((Aloy)) Yep...quite an ordeal. For a couple of days I felt like I was sitting on top of dynamite waiting for it to go off.

7:41 am

Scrabbler

Viral rashes are very common in young kids.

8:15 am

crosshair

now here is a bonus tidbit. I had to add this because this has to be one of the most idiotic ways to remove yourself from the gene pool that i have ever read about...

8:15 am

crosshair

Francis Bacon:
One of the most influential minds of the late 16th century. A statesman, a philosopher, a writer, and a scientist, he was even rumored to have written some of Shakespeare's plays.
How he died: Stuffing snow into a chicken
One afternoon in 1625, Bacon was watching a snowstorm and was struck by the wondrous notion that maybe snow could be used to preserve meat in the same way that salt was used. Determined to find out, he purchased a chicken from a nearby village, killed it, and then, standing outside in the snow, attempted to stuff the chicken full of snow to freeze it. The chicken never froze, but Bacon did.

8:15 am

hego

yay! a bonus!

8:16 am

gramma

What?

8:16 am

hego

Well the idea was right on anyway.

8:17 am

right idea..wrong execution;)

8:18 am

but, what killed him?

8:18 am

suefrad625

mimi, just read your ordeal,my son had something similar, Rock Mountain Spotted Fever

hi Sue

8:20 am

MimiCat

Hi, sue---just popped back in for a minute. I wonder if they tested for that. We do live in Arizona and there are ticks here.

8:21 am

MimiCat

kje---I tried hitman, too and was surprised it wasn't there!

8:21 am

suefrad625

we lost a couple of babies to it. My son has an amazing doctor how put him on the antibiotics even before getting the results back

8:21 am

crosshair

so.. Bacons goose was cooked by a chicken:)

8:22 am

MimiCat

crossy---gives "frozen bacon" a whole new connotation!

8:22 am

crosshair

we do not get ticks in this area;thank god

8:22 am

hego

Everyone is very funny today.

8:22 am

suefrad625

RMSF usually presents as a bad cold, but then it hits hard and fast. Usually if there is a rash on the palm of the hand, that is a good indication

8:23 am

hego

Crossy, what do you think about Ron Ford?

8:23 am

crosshair

do not know him

8:23 am

hego

Mayor of Toronto.

8:23 am

What has happened to my mind? I saw the D and thought oh dh 5/14. Never considered di 4/5. I have a scrammbled, babbled brain.

8:23 am

hego

Just went into rehab.

8:23 am

MimiCat

Wow, sue. Our little guy rebounded quite quickly, thank goodness. Sure sounded like something he picked up like that. He apparently had the rash all over his body but, as I said, it started with his legs...thus, picking it up from the ground?

8:23 am

crosshair

oh, Rob Ford?

8:24 am

hego

sorry

8:24 am

hego

yeah, him

8:24 am

crosshair

he is the cities problem. I live two hours north. For all i care, he can wrap that city up in a little ball and smoke it with his crack pipe:)

i watched a youtube last night also. Dale has been sick for the past week. they think pneumonia, and now i am feeling a bit in the chest. so i need to do this before the bottom falls out.

8:41 am

and keep that drill perfectly level

8:42 am

crosshair

and take care of yourself. get a doc to check those lungs:)

8:43 am

I have to round thingy for the whole and the paddles for the thing that sticks out. it is a metal door. I figure i will hit it with a nail first to give it a spot to sit in.

8:43 am

yup

8:43 am

crosshair

that way the bit will not wander

8:44 am

suefrad625

you know what pisses me off. Dale went to the doctor, who showed him a spot on his lung from the xray on thursday. They never called back to tell him what it was!!!

8:45 am

Anniebrook

Call the doctor.

8:45 am

crosshair

docs can be a pita at times. took ours 2 weeks to fill a ventolin scrip. Had to beg the pharmacy for a puffer

8:47 am

Anniebrook

be back later to finish

8:47 am

crosshair

ours Never calls back with good news. After a test, you either have to make a new appt to get results or call them

8:47 am

suefrad625

this same week, the surgeon tells me John (son) doesn't have a hernia so he could have participated in the Worlds Cheer Championships. But, they don't know what the bulge in his abdomen is. And people wonder why I am a nut and gray!

8:48 am

crosshair

you have to be very proactive in your healthcare these days. 2nd, 3rd and 4th opinions, hunting them down. pin that doc down and drag the information out with a chain if that is what it takes

8:48 am

suefrad625

they are such crap heads. I hate how they use the word "Normal". Like having a baby is an everyday event for THAT woman. Or any situation that is NOT Normal for the rest of us.

2:38 pm

of course what scrolling the chat log IS, is staying within the game to assist you and not going to an outside program as an additional aide in finding words.

2:41 pm

crosshair

but we can pick at this all day:)

2:43 pm

crosshair

i cannot believe that i did not see th 5/14 till now:)

2:45 pm

MollyL

I think it all depends on what your personal goal is regarding playing the game. If it's finding words on your own, that is one thing. If it's finding words with assistance, that is another. Everyone gets to choose how they play.

2:46 pm

yup. there are many ways to play
