puglet
LOL, must really be hot there
12:12 am
McLeach

12:13 am
McLeach
I'm in GA, but grew up in OH
12:13 am
puglet

12:14 am
puglet
Iam in Indiana(mid-west)
12:14 am
McLeach
and I didn't have a fan or air conditioning growing up, and lived without air conditioning for 3 years in GA before finally caving and turning it on
12:14 am
McLeach

puglet
I think Our Peach is from there too
12:15 am
McLeach

12:15 am
puglet
Is your air con. broken, that you cant have it
12:19 am
McLeach
Purchased a house last summer, but the central air doesn't work and we're doing without it for now. Do have a couple window units that we'll get in this weekend. Also have some ceiling fans, several floor fans and a whole house/attic fan and plenty of mature shade trees, so really, I don't have it bad - especially considering my previous situation
12:20 am

12:57 am
rururocks
oh.. i'm sure she's over that by now
12:58 am
rururocks
she's a pretty good sport that one
12:58 am
McLeach

12:58 am
rururocks
I can't count the times I've offended her
12:59 am
puglet

1:12 am
TraderKate

1:12 am
TraderKate

1:12 am
puglet
a few times
1:12 am
McLeach

Morning All - another brief visit before work stuff
1:13 am
TraderKate

1:14 am
puglet

1:17 am
Kazzer99

1:18 am
McLeach
yes, but where are you REALLY from: ;)
1:18 am
TraderKate
a lot of rhyming words in here so far kaz.. find a 4 letter word and make 3 more by changing first letter :)
1:19 am
TraderKate
ah! so puny earthling... you are not satisfied with my generic cover story... you want to know the truth of my origins... welll....
1:19 am
McLeach
naturally ;)
1:19 am
TraderKate
would you belive i'm from PLUTO?
1:20 am
TraderKate
a small m class planet in the constellation cannis minora?
1:20 am
puglet
I was thinking Mars-lol
1:20 am
McLeach
that not-a-planet full of fleas? nope
1:21 am
McLeach
But men are from mars? Is Kate a dude?
1:21 am
TraderKate
i call zaphod beeblebrox' home planet....
1:21 am
puglet
well shes wearing a green shirt
1:22 am
TraderKate

1:22 am
puglet
Iam sorry-lol
1:23 am
McLeach
looks gray to me
1:23 am
TraderKate
lmao :D
1:24 am
puglet
it might be, I dont have my glasses on so it looks green to me
1:25 am
McLeach
Well, if you're from Zaphod's backyard, I now know how old you are.
1:25 am
rururocks
It looks kinda tope-y to me
1:26 am
McLeach
it could be green, though, if a darker green
1:26 am
TraderKate
i think it depends how good /new your computer is... i am on an old lappie, so it is a small screen and it looks grey... it did used to look quite bright green
1:26 am
McLeach
I'd say more like taupe
1:27 am
McLeach
My laptop is new, but the screen is fairly small - and my eyes suck
1:27 am
puglet
mine is an old computer too
1:27 am
TraderKate
do you now al??? i am most definitely NOT 42....
1:27 am
McLeach
oh, sorry, I guess you're not a spring chicken after all
1:28 am
TraderKate
i could be much younger than 42... who's to say? and we are dealing n alien years don't forget... much like dog years, which you are familliar with...
1:29 am
McLeach
indeed, until tonight I was a dude
1:30 am
McLeach
and now I'm a dog.... and female...... HEY!!! now that's just not nice :p
1:30 am
puglet
sorry about that Mc-lol
1:30 am
rururocks
You could be a dude like the Big Lebowski
1:30 am
TraderKate
i'm confused... we all thought you were a guy and didn't you say you weren't? no offense, just confuzzled...
1:31 am
McLeach
seriously, I was perfectly fine with folks thinking I was a guy if they wanted to
1:31 am
McLeach
confession - I tried to watch the Big Leb some years ago, but apparently didn't "get" it
1:32 am
TraderKate
hey, this is babble... be JC if you want, rofl....
1:32 am
rururocks
Oh god mcleach
1:32 am
rururocks
It is a classic
1:33 am
rururocks
No tk. Dont be JC
1:33 am
puglet
what hapeen to you Rose?
1:34 am
McLeach
Pugs asked me if I was male or female, and I asked s/he what s/he thought I was. Pugs and ru guessed I'm male, and I said they were wrong. Ru speculated that I might be transsexual or canine. I had almost said I was canine, but I think I ended up being a female human. I think.
1:35 am
McLeach
So I've heard, ru. I may try to give it another go someday, I dunno.
1:35 am
McLeach
Husband half just arrived, so I'm going to say g'night all.

2:12 am
puglet
I was wondering how that went for you
2:12 am
puglet
did you learn alot
2:14 am
sprite
it was beautiful again. And I talked with the psychiatrist who runs the thing and asked how we would go about payment once my therapy da4 are over. And he promised me we work something out, he will ask me to help and in time I might even become part of the after-meeting in which they work out everything that happened during the day :D
2:14 am
sprite
yes, learned a lot again. That man is SO damn good at what he does.
2:14 am
grannyrose

sprite
*giggles* Adding it now
2:24 am
rururocks
Gyncap?
2:24 am
sprite
have you visited our dictionary yet, ruru? In my profile. Words in babble grids that should have been valid words.
2:24 am
grannyrose
nope, it's not in google search. it is part of other words, but never on it's own
2:25 am
rururocks
Why not gyncape and make that area a super hero?
2:25 am
sprite
on its own even, grin. Thanks rose. Another great addition.
2:26 am
grannyrose
or something a gynaecologist wears, as protective wear
2:26 am
sprite
lol! Is it a bird? (no, why ask such a crazy question?). Is it a plane? (ok, you may leave now, and give your own private parts crazy names). It is super gyncape! (yeah right)
2:26 am
grannyrose
oh, my, ROFLOL ....like the invisible man??
2:27 am
puglet
LOL Sprite
2:27 am
puglet
Your daughter is in the grid today Sprite
2:28 am
grannyrose
yeah, what happened to....the answer is the most bestest daughter
2:30 am
rururocks
Super V and the sidekick "bushwhack"
2:32 am
puglet
another school shooting--:(
2:33 am
rururocks
I would be speechless too
2:33 am
neniacampbell
hii
2:33 am
neniacampbell
hiiii pug
2:33 am
puglet
I just dont get all these shootings
2:34 am
grannyrose
g'day nenia
2:34 am
grannyrose
neither do i, pugs.
2:34 am
rururocks
One common denominator pugs
2:35 am
grannyrose
pugs, have sent you an email
2:35 am
neniacampbell
i imagine that a lot of them are feeling desperately unhappy and that technology probably makes them feel even more isolated as they see other people growing more connected
2:35 am
puglet
Rose, Ive meet someone on DS thats from Aus. too--dont know what part but will ask if we become better friends
2:36 am
neniacampbell
as a teenager, i was bullied ruthlessly by teenagers, and there were days when, if I didn't have such a supportive family, I probably might have turned a gun on myself or others
2:36 am
sprite
yeah that could be part of it. And if it is teenagers, they feel everything very intense... so make them mad and lonely enough and crazy things can happen. Especially if they can access a gun.
2:36 am
rururocks
Going to bag it night folks
2:36 am
neniacampbell
goodnight ruru!
2:36 am
grannyrose
two common denominators, ruru. lack of grey matter to think with...and firearms.
2:36 am
puglet
good night Ruru
2:36 am
sprite
am glad you have a good family, nenia
2:37 am
sprite
night ruru, sleep well :)
2:37 am
neniacampbell
I am too. Seriously, all you need is one person--just one--to show you that humanity isn't a complete lost cause.
2:37 am
grannyrose
night ruru.
2:38 am
puglet
school was not a good place for me either
2:38 am
sprite
I can relate to that, nenia. Have been through hell and back as a child and teenager. But that one guy pulled me through. Too bad he abused me later on, sigh, but at least I survived puberty.
2:39 am
neniacampbell
I am sorry pug. :( And wow, sprite that sucks. :(
2:39 am
sprite
yeah it did. Mixed feelings though, because he made that difference when it counted.
2:39 am
puglet
and in some of the town either--I remember playing with a girl from my class that lived next to my grandma and her folks put a stop to us playing for they didnt think I was up to their class
2:40 am
sprite
what an assholes, pugs (pardon my french).
2:41 am
puglet
alot was due to the job my dad had as a kid
2:41 am
puglet
yeah and I really liked her too and it hurt but grandma tried to smooth it over but it stuck with me all these years
2:41 am
sprite
whatever his job was, sweetie, he earned his living and they had no call looking down on him or you
2:42 am
puglet
well they did and the school too but like you I have made it through it
2:42 am
sprite
we are true survivors. Yay us all :)
2:42 am
puglet
he hauled trash(this was before big city trucks)
2:43 am
grannyrose
and very glad i am that you both did so. xoxox. *group hug* c'mon nenia, it includes your, hun
2:43 am
sprite
so? Imagine nobody did that. Those uptown assholes would have lived in a slum in no time.
2:43 am
puglet
And I had to help him alot as a kid on it to help shovel and lift barrels
2:44 am
puglet
hugs back to all
2:44 am
neniacampbell
seriously i agree with sprite
2:44 am
neniacampbell
easy to make fun of trash until you have to deal with it on your own
2:44 am
sprite
I really look down on people who look down on people because of the work they do, grin
2:45 am
puglet
I guess they thought if we hauled it then we were trash--thats how they made me feel
2:45 am
grannyrose
*giggle* sorry, that reminds me of an old joke about the pope...and i am not wanting any catholics to take offence, okay?
2:46 am
neniacampbell
/is not catholic
2:46 am
puglet
Iam not one but okay--go for it-lol
2:46 am
grannyrose
why does the pope wear his jocks in the shower?
2:46 am
sprite
pugs, and they would have loved you if your father had been a gynaecologist, no doubt... though following the same reasoning that would have made him a c*nt ;)
2:46 am
grannyrose
because he doesn't want to look down on the unemployed.
2:46 am
neniacampbell
lol y?
2:47 am
sprite
roflolollll
2:47 am
neniacampbell
LOL
2:47 am
grannyrose
sorry, it al6 gives me the giggles.
2:48 am
puglet
maybe so Sprite---Iam over all that now but of course things like that stay with you
2:48 am
sprite
do you know why the pope has ordered that all aquaria will be remade in frosted glass?
2:49 am
grannyrose
oh, no....why, sprite?
2:49 am
puglet
do tell Sprite
2:49 am
sprite
he is dead against naked swimming
2:49 am
grannyrose
*explosive laughter*
2:49 am
neniacampbell
lol
2:51 am
grannyrose
boy, are we booored!!!
2:51 am
puglet
We need that Wor! Where is he? lol
2:53 am
sprite
oh! Got to tell you guys something else! One of the people yesterday is a minister who is about to graduate with a thesis on the Holy Spirit. And one of her professors is an englishman. She has trouble putting her thoughts on paper in english. I have offered to translate her dutch into english, so she can work in dutch. And she was really happy and wrote down my email address.
2:53 am
puglet
I take my Annapooh walking with me every night and as soon as we hit our yard she runs for her little pool and takes a roll--lol
2:53 am
grannyrose
probably snugged up to the diane
2:53 am
sprite
<--- is never ever bored
2:53 am
sprite
lol, bad annapooh. But funny.
2:54 am
puglet
that will be nice for you Sprite and nice of you to do too
2:54 am
grannyrose
*giggle* at annapooh....and yay for sprite. lovely of you to offer to help her like that.
2:54 am
sprite
oh it will be a treat for me, I love stuff like that.
2:54 am
sprite
plus I really like that lady too :)
2:55 am
puglet
I bet too you will learn from doing that too
2:55 am
sprite
oh yes, no doubt about it.
2:55 am
puglet
oh, maybe a new friend then -- that will be nice for you
2:55 am
grannyrose
i'm about halfway through " in the steps of the master " it is an amazing book. written by H.V. Morton. circa 1950's
2:55 am
sprite
if we get to work on this together, I wouldn't be surprised if we ended up being good friends indeed
2:56 am
sprite
what is it about, rose? Someone following Jesus's footsteps?
2:57 am
neniacampbell
I'm reading a psychic criminal investigation story by Kay Hooper :D
2:57 am
puglet
and Sprite, I know I have said this a few times but I just love that little book. Iam putting it in the car to read every morning before work
2:57 am
sprite
oh, sounds good, nenia
2:58 am
grannyrose
yes, sprite. the author goes to palenstine, and follows the story of Jesus' ministry through the Gospels. it's just incredible.
2:58 am
sprite
oh wow, am so glad, pugs! It is right next to me here as well.
2:58 am
sprite
rose, sounds good! Writing it down here.
2:59 am
grannyrose
ugh, where did that extra n come from? *palestine*
2:59 am
puglet
yeah mine is right beside me too, but I want it in the car to read before work to meditate on it
3:00 am
grannyrose
sprite, there is another version, aiming at a slightly younger market. " in the steps of Jesus" same author, but not a explicit, shall we say?
3:00 am
neniacampbell
ooh that sounds good
3:00 am
sprite
lovely, pugs. Am so glad. *hugs*
3:00 am
sprite
ok, rose, thanks :)
3:01 am
grannyrose
he points out so much evidence that the gospels are true. it is such a delight to read.
3:01 am
sprite
nenia, the booklet pugs and I are talking about is called His Princess (Love letters from your King) by Sheri Rose Shepherd. Very uplifting texts for us women.
3:01 am
sprite
awesome, rose. Am looking for it right now, lol.
3:02 am
grannyrose
i love his description of camels and why they appear so supercilious.
3:02 am
grannyrose
the arabs says allah has 100 name, we know 99, the camel knows the 100th name.
3:04 am
sprite
oh I love that! Omg. Brilliant. Yes, that is how they look.
3:05 am
grannyrose
i thought that would appeal to you...lol
3:06 am
sprite
it does, grin.
3:06 am
grannyrose
oh, and i forwarded the email i sent pugs to you dear. for your comment.
3:06 am
rururocks
That last one got them over the hump
3:07 am
grannyrose
oh, dear, now he's sleep-babbling....
3:07 am
sprite
it is something that worries me, with all the hate for the muslims that is going on nowadays. People seem to forget that they have such wisdom and humour, and errrrrr that Jesus was one of them!
3:07 am
puglet
just took my sugar and the lowest yet 104! :)
3:07 am
grannyrose
wow, yay for you pugs.
3:08 am
sprite
the elephant said to the camel: "You look like an idiot with two tits on your back."
"That's some nerve from someone with a dick in his face," answered the camel.
3:08 am
sprite
woooot that is beautiful, pugs!
3:08 am
puglet
yeah I am really happy about that number
3:09 am
puglet
thank you guys
3:09 am
sprite
as you should. Well done, hun!
3:09 am
grannyrose
i simply why we cannot all agree to disagree, and get on with life. allah doesn't want the violence, the Holy Trinity doesn't want the violence, yahweh doesn't want the violence, jehovah doesn't want the violence, even the non-believers don't want the violence.
3:10 am
puglet
hows yours doing Sprite
3:10 am
puglet
me either Rose
3:10 am
grannyrose
ugh...* i simply cannot see why *
3:11 am
sprite
am right with you there, rose. Let's all recognise that we just don't KNOW the big Mystery. No need to fight over semantics while WhateveryouwannacallHim is unknowable anyway.
3:11 am
sprite
haven't checked lately, pugs, to be honest. I feel very good. And am reasonably good with eating so I think it is going pretty well.
3:12 am
grannyrose
absolutely..sprite...it is such a waste of energy and resources....
3:12 am
puglet
good Sprite
3:13 am
sprite
yes, and of time and lives as well.
3:14 am
sprite
*hugs pugs* We do the best we can, hun, and it looks like it is paying off :)
3:14 am
puglet
too much as been done in the name of God that isnt right in my mind through the times
3:15 am
grannyrose
now sprite, what if our pugs admitted to not checking her BSL's lately? but to be fair...as a realistic, holistic nurse i have to say....it's just numbers....how do you feel?
3:15 am
sprite
so true. I have this conviction, that if you want to do anything out of God's name, you should make pretty sure that you do it from your heart and make love your highest law and inspiration.
3:16 am
sprite
rose, my sugar nurse says I don't have to check at all. Just use it as an extra aid and to check if I feel rotten, if the sugar is causing it.
3:16 am
grannyrose
as i said, dearest one, how do you feel?
3:17 am
puglet
the Bible does say the greatest of all is Love and if a man does not have love he is nothing
3:17 am
sprite
I feel great, rose.
3:17 am
puglet
or something to that effect
3:17 am
sprite
amen, pugs. That is exactly it.
3:18 am
grannyrose
ohm yeah, pugs
3:21 am
puglet
Sprite how is Rob's elbow
3:22 am
puglet
you guys have any big plans for the week-end?
3:23 am
sprite
still bothering him. Rose, what was the cream again... arnica or calendula?
3:24 am
puglet
Rose must of went to the loo
3:25 am
puglet
Sprite, Iam feeling so much better
3:26 am
puglet
putting to use what you gave me is helping, thanks
3:26 am
sprite
pugs, you can download the free ebook that Rose was talking about here:
http://tinyurl.com/mprj678
3:26 am
puglet
okay thanks
3:26 am
sprite
I read it in your emails, pugs. Will answer after babble. Am so so glad. You are so strong and courageous.
3:27 am
sprite
at the left of the page you see some things in blue font. If you click the Epub, it will download onto your computer.
3:27 am
puglet
got it thanks
3:28 am
puglet
Ive been meditating again(something which I havent done in a long time) and that is helping too
3:29 am
sprite
oh yes, that is a big help in processes as yours. Do you know how rare it is for people in trouble to actually do the things that will help them feel better? You are really special that way.
3:29 am
puglet
Zoom, wrote me a very nice letter too. Made me feel very good
3:30 am
sprite
how lovely, pugs :)
3:30 am
grannyrose
sorry, loo was the correct answer as to where rose has gone.
3:30 am
grannyrose
sprite, arnica, dear
3:30 am
puglet
thanks Sprite--I need to do something to fix things
3:30 am
puglet
I knew it! lol
3:31 am
sprite
lol rose. Not unimportant! And thanks, will try and get Rob the arnica cream.
3:31 am
sprite
yes pugs, but what I mean is, most people who need to still don't. And you do. That is awesome. Take a bow, accept the compliment. You deserve it.
3:32 am
grannyrose
and yay that it is a free down load, sprite. i do so hope you both enjoy it.
3:32 am
puglet
I will do as you ask and thanks
3:32 am
sprite
I am sure I will, rose. Thanks for the tip.
3:32 am
sprite
*hugs pugs*
3:33 am
puglet
I hope Rob's arm gets better--got to be hard working like that
3:33 am
grannyrose
sprite, the slow release med i take for pain relief has been withdrawn from the market over here. in it's place is the same drug with naloxone added, to reduce constipation. and with IBS you get?
3:34 am
puglet
at least he went to the doctor more then Rose's Don will do -lol
3:35 am
grannyrose
i am thinking my don is probably waiting until i am not so reliant on him. poor man!
3:35 am
sprite
what is IBS, rose?
3:35 am
puglet
might be, never thought of that Rose
3:36 am
grannyrose
irritable bowel syndrome. you get either constipated or diarrhoea....take a flying stab at which one it get?
3:36 am
sprite
oh god, indeed. Same here. Al6 diarrhoea.
3:37 am
puglet
neither one sounds nice Rose-lol
3:37 am
grannyrose
* i * get....and i don't need a med to stop the constipation. not on the itty-bitty dose i take.
3:37 am
sprite
it is slightly preferable over constipation. But only slightly.
3:37 am
puglet
I agree Sprite
3:38 am
grannyrose
at least with constipation you have time to get to the loo.
3:38 am
sprite
I have taken oxycodone for years on end in high doses. And never ever had constipation. Still diarrhoea while on them.
3:38 am
puglet
you can lose weight having diarhea
3:39 am
sprite
that is true, rose, but if constipation gets bad, you need very rotten treatments. With diarrhoea, as long as you ahve a toilet near, you can manage.
3:40 am
puglet
or depends--lol
3:40 am
grannyrose
and there, sprite i rest my case....central sensitivity syndrome....:-( still haven't heard from that specialist. will let you both know as soon as i do.
3:41 am
sprite
I can't wait, rose. For you in the first place. But a bit for myself as well.
3:41 am
puglet
okay Rose, please do
3:42 am
sprite
lol yes, depends or tena lady. There are solutions for diarrhoea. Not so much for constipation. A friend of mine had trouble in that area and then some scarring in her belly insides caused her bowels to block completely. You don't want to know where her sh*t came out of.
3:43 am
grannyrose
LOLOL....one of the guys on Qi is screaming out....squirrel, squirrel. nearly choking with laughter.
3:43 am
sprite
roflollll they know you there, rose ;)
3:44 am
grannyrose
oh, no. the next question was...did Jesus walk on custard?
3:44 am
puglet
well my lady friends, I need to get off and shower and things before work--If Wor comes on give him a hug and hugs and love to you both and both of you have a good day/evening
3:45 am
grannyrose
pugs, please don't forget to check my email.
3:45 am
grannyrose
hope your day is nice to you, love. xoxox
3:46 am
sprite
*hugs pugs* Good luck today, dear friend.
3:47 am
sprite
roflolol rose. No he didn't. If you walk on custard, you fall through. Only if you jump on custard, you will stay at the surface.
3:47 am
sprite
will be back, bathroom run
3:48 am
grannyrose
nice sprite...Qi has film clips of someone walking on custard...must look into it.
3:57 am
grannyrose
wb, sprite. just had the question how many sheep went onto noah's ark?
3:58 am
grannyrose
no peeking into Genesis...
3:59 am
sprite
lol! 2 sheep?
3:59 am
sprite
or one sheep and one ram
4:00 am
grannyrose
no...lol....7 of all clean animals...2 of the unclean...and 7 of each bird...
4:00 am
sprite
my son is back from the UNESPO, btw. He loved it. They ended as the very last though, lol.
4:00 am
sprite
oh! Never knew that, rose! Always thought it was two of each.
4:00 am
sprite
so... sheep are clean, or birds?
4:00 am
grannyrose
oh, lovely, sprite. so glad he enjoyed it.
4:01 am
sprite
he has made so many friends, all over the world. Which was the most important goal, I think.
4:01 am
grannyrose
yes, sprite. i think it is the cloven-hoofed animals, and animals which slither.
4:02 am
grannyrose
oh, dear. they are unclean.
4:02 am
sprite
slithering and cloven-hoofed? Sounds devilish to me, lol.
4:02 am
grannyrose
exactly sprite. but later our Lord told us we had dominion over ALL animals of the earth.
4:04 am
sprite
yeah. And then we went and pretended dominion meant we could use them up. While I am pretty sure He meant we should be very responsible with them all.
4:06 am
grannyrose
yes love. and just where does that responsibility end? i think it means we need to make sure the species never becomes extinct.
4:06 am
grannyrose
btw, have you seen my email yet?
4:06 am
sprite
that, and also to treat them well. To be a good guardian.
4:07 am
sprite
the one about you not making it to babble two days back?
4:07 am
grannyrose
nope, i forward an email i sent to pugs.
4:08 am
grannyrose
*forwarded*
4:09 am

naughty froggy...hugs dear.
4:22 am
jaxx7
There was a teacher at the school I worked at who wore 'Jesus' sndals in the summer. You could guarantee that the moment he put those darn shoes on that the weather would change for the worse
4:23 am
jaxx7
I was just assuming that your legs worked the same magic.
4:23 am
worzel
I assumed dawg was a word so I googled it and 1/2 way down the page it came up with "Dawg - Worzel needs a new home" - what are the odds??? lmao
4:23 am
frogface
tut you found out my cunning plan worz x
4:23 am
jaxx7
Thanks, Grannyrose. That starts the day off really well. May I return more of the same?
4:24 am
worzel
jaxx we have been promised very hot weather all day today - followed by extreme thunderstorms tomorrow. So, in other words, a typical British summer - one day of heat one day of storms
4:24 am
grannyrose
jaxx, please call me rose, as everybody else does...except worzel...he has adopted me, and to him i am mum...
4:24 am
jaxx7
never believe weather forecasters - they lie!
4:25 am
worzel
I have only adopted 3 things in my life - one being a cat when I was 15, one being a Frog when I was 39 and one being a Mum when I was 43 - three best decisions of my life!!!
4:26 am
grannyrose
and to diane...i am 'mam-in-law'
4:26 am
jaxx7
Worzel and I have swapped places. he has gone to Liverpool from Exeter and I have come down to Teignmouth from Manchester. keeps the population constant
4:27 am
grannyrose
sooo, now i have 4 sons and 4 daughters-in-law...
4:27 am
worzel
I think I got the better deal though - I not only moved to a city of culture I also got the perfect lady which, in Liverpool, is extremely rare lol
4:27 am
grannyrose
*giggle* jaxx....so long as you are constant
4:28 am
jaxx7
All Lancashire lasses are lovely

You wouldn't say that if you saw some of the "ladies" around here jaxx lol

Some of them are like navvies - swearing, spitting, fighting - and that's the nice ones!

I have a 'proxy' daughter, rose. My own daughter is hard to cope with and Debbie is so lovely, she is a real pleasure to know
4:30 am
grannyrose
wor...dad has a head-ache to end all head-aches. please, dear. can you and diane hold him up to whichever God/s you believe in? i have given him an injection for the vomiting...
4:30 am
worzel
Has he ever suffered from migraine?
4:30 am
sprite
aw poor don
4:31 am
jaxx7
Oh, dear. I am sorry. Is it migraineous? I have suffered with those in the past and I empathise.
4:31 am
grannyrose
al6, worzel. it wasn't until after we were married, that he had any relief from them.
4:31 am
frogface
wishing him better xx
4:31 am
jaxx7
That tells you something about yourself, rose
4:31 am
frogface
oooops nooooooooo
4:32 am
grannyrose
jaxx, yes, it is a migraine.
4:32 am
grannyrose
and thanx sprite, dear
4:33 am
sprite
rose, you could try to gently rub his feet. I know it sounds crazy, but sometimes it helps with migraine.
4:33 am
jaxx7
Don't think I am crazy but do you have any travel sickness pills handy? get him to take a dose and then about 20 mins later, give him a soluble aspirin. That will relieve the vomiting
4:33 am
worzel
Mum this is going to sound weird, but depending on what side of the head it is take a warm moist cloth, place it on the foot on the opposite side of the headache (so if headache is mostly left side of head put it on right foot) massage cloth gently into the foot lay him down in darkened (but not totally dark) room and make him take deep breaths. It won't go straight away but the two times I've had a migraine it has worked and that was from a nurse, so I hope it works for Dad. If not I'll try send a healing angel his way!
4:34 am
worzel
phantom patchy
4:35 am
grannyrose
sprite, i know there is a trigger point on the foot. will try, hun
4:36 am
worzel
Another therapy, if you were able to get hold of one, is to place an oxygen mask on his face and get him to take about five minutes of slow gentle breaths, but obviously it's not easy to get hold of oxygen
4:37 am
grannyrose
worzel, egad, you are presuming i can separate him from dvd's and the tv.
4:37 am
grannyrose
but i will try it.
4:37 am
sprite
how can he watch tv with migraine??
4:38 am
jaxx7
They do not help migraine, the screen flickers and probably trigger the darn thing in the beginning
4:38 am
grannyrose
okay, ginger...soluble aspirin...thanx.
4:38 am
worzel
Terrible thing that Mum - the cathodes contain electro-symbiotics of some kind that can push some chemicals into hyperactivity and worsen the headache - tell him to turn the telly off!!!
4:39 am
grannyrose
lol, sprite. i don't know. he claims watching the small screen takes his mind off the pain. and this is firmly engrained.
4:39 am
worzel
Anyway I'll brb - need the little boys room and make some more tea *semi-poof*
4:39 am
grannyrose
worzel...i am black in the face....he will not listen to me...
4:40 am
jaxx7
I can't see when I have one of my heads and when that wears off I get numbness on the opposite side to the the side the headache is on. As Worzel says: turn that TV off now. He won't be able to argue if the pain is that bad
4:40 am
sprite
weird, rose, lol. I haven't had a migraine often, thanks God, but when I did, I couldn't abide any kind of light, nor could I even focus.
4:41 am
grannyrose
exactly, sprite. with my migraines....shut me up in a dark quiet room, and a cold cloth over my forehead.
4:42 am
jaxx7
Try and get it equally firmly engrained that the best thing is a darkened room and to go to sleep. TV will worsen things not improve them.
4:43 am
sprite
ok rose, in that case, let him suffer in peace, lol. His choice. He is a big boy.
4:43 am
jaxx7
have you found out what the triggers are? It used to be cheese, chocolate, red wine and lack of sleep. Now I find if I miss a meal or spend too long asleep that that will start them off.
4:44 am
sprite
fireflies. Lovely grid for one so small. *hugs* to my friends, and may you all have a blessed day and a peaceful night.
4:45 am

10:31 am
jmcnrick
haha they are already so sweet when you pick the warm . . .
10:31 am
MollyL
Yes, but she was using it for incentive for the kids to pick. Less wear and tear on her back. : )
10:32 am
jmcnrick
we had picked a bunch and this vietnamese couple came by us and gave us half of what they had picked. . . we of course had to pay for them but my son was only 8 and i think they took pity on my getting him to pick. . .
10:32 am
jmcnrick
i just told him he could eat one for every two he picked. . .and that got him going for a fairly long time. . .
10:33 am
jmcnrick
but it was nice of them i thought
10:33 am

It is a dream of mine to one day have a greenhouse and grow fresh strawberries all year long.

Hello babbleworld...*happy Friday dance*...teeny grid :(
1:28 pm

It's not a trick. When you have a pro account, the box where the Tile Stats are turns into an animated fireworks graphic when you finish. If you don't want to believe that, it's your prerogative, but that is a fact nonetheless.

<--- Struggles with the easy grids. Finished this one in jig time. Happy to clue if necessary...
5:36 pm
MollyL
: O The CIA is on Twitter. There is something fundamentally wrong with the world.
5:37 pm
MollyL
Nice icon Soodle. You're a hero!
5:50 pm
Soodle
I think, all things considered, that your icon is more appropriate to me, Molls. :-/
5:53 pm
MollyL
Well, as I have said to myself on many occasion, this is how we learn. : )
5:58 pm
Soodle
The Boy Wonder returns home tomorrow. He'll go back on Monday. Then on Thursday, Sarah is moving over to England. 2 out of the three of them across the water now.
6:03 pm
MollyL
It's an odd feeling when they fly the coop. A strange mixture of pride and melancholy.
6:05 pm
Soodle
You nailed it Molls. Pride & melancholy. And also tightly scrunched eyes & fervent prayers that all goes well for her.
6:06 pm
MollyL
I have every confidence she will do just fine. From what you say about her, she is a very vibrant young woman.
6:13 pm
Soodle
Vibrant! I couldn't have thought of a better description of Sarah! Yet again, Molly nails it!
6:20 pm
MollyL
Be happy that you are sending good people out into the world, Soodle. They are the rare ones and the rest of us benefit from the love and guidance they were raised with.
6:38 pm
rururocks

That was pretty schmoopy, wasn't it. Next thing you know I'll be waxing poetic about "my beloved"

6:50 pm
rururocks
as long as you don't call him valentine
6:51 pm
rururocks
that moniker is taken already
6:55 pm
MollyL
I used to refer to one of my exes as Spicoli on another board. (Fast Times At Ridgemont High reference) DH and hubby are not my thing. Besides, I always read DH as dick head.
6:56 pm
rururocks
lol . I do too
6:57 pm
rururocks
I always choke when I see it
6:59 pm
rururocks
I probably even qualify as a DH husband nowadays
7:00 pm
MollyL
Well, at least you are honest enough to admit that.
: D
7:01 pm
rururocks
well.. if the shoe fits...
7:04 pm
MollyL
Yeah, but you know, there are so many dick heads that the shoe fits, and yet they refuse to wear it.
: P
7:07 pm
rururocks
well.. then that may depend on shoe size then
7:11 pm
MollyL
Q: What size shoe does a narcissist wear? A: It doesn't matter. He will just lie and say it's the size he thinks everyone will love.
: P
7:14 pm
rururocks
ha.. I seem to attract narcissists in my life. I'm surrounded by them.. it always takes me a while to see through it and figure it out.

The attention starved love people who will tolerate them.
7:18 pm
rururocks
how many women psychiatrists does it take to put in a light bulb
7:20 pm
MollyL
None. They would be too busy asking you how you are feeling about the need for a light bulb, and if that threatened you in any way.
7:21 pm
MollyL
*Just a guess*
7:21 pm
rururocks
nope.. five
7:21 pm
rururocks
One to put it in and four to discuss its implications
7:23 pm
rururocks

7:32 pm

How many software engineers does it take to change a light bulb?

I've spent hours and hours in the garden turfing out the weeds I've been watering and feeding... which always do better than the plants the care is intended for.
