2:49 am
sprite

*hugs rose* Hello dear friend. I missed you by 2 minutes yesterday!
2:49 am
grannyrose

how is rob? any better? you didn't say exactly what was wrong with him.
2:50 am
grannyrose

and how are you now? oh i so wish i was just down the street...
2:50 am
sprite

he's got flu, or a very major cold virus. Coughing, sneezing, fever, pain in every muscle, weak as a newborn baby bird.
2:51 am
sprite

oh me too! I could really do with an IRL rose hug.
2:51 am
sprite

oh I am ok. So far no flu *knocks wood*. And I slept this night. Most of it anyway.
2:54 am
grannyrose

i'd come in, do the laundry, make the beds, do the shopping, get your dinner ready, peel you a grape.
2:55 am
sprite

oh no way! You have to be careful with your body, dear friend! I would want you to make us a cuppa, then sit with me and talk and do a hug every now and again just for the heck of it.
2:56 am
sprite

Ks killed
2:56 am
grannyrose

did i not mention it would take all day to do it?? time for lots of cuppas and hugs, dear friend.
2:58 am
sprite

:D Still too much of a burden. But oh I long for your company!
2:58 am
sprite

so, now that we are on the subject... how are you?
2:59 am
grannyrose

it will happen hin. the eldest of my bros was saying to me today, just get those hips fixed ASAP.
3:00 am
sprite

sounds good, sweetie. If we can't make it this year, then the next one. Those hips need to be fixed in order to lessen your pain.
3:00 am
grannyrose

don and i took lots of pics today. as soon as i work out how to send them, you all are gonna be inundated .
3:00 am
sprite

yessssss :D
3:00 am
grannyrose

but i so wanted to see you....* sigh *
3:01 am
sprite

you will. It is all gonna happen. And remember that if travelling turns out to be too much for you, there is always the option of having the mountain travel to Mohammed.
3:01 am
sprite

Mozes. Whatever.
3:02 am
grannyrose

we have had the most wonderful day. the weather wasn't too terrific to start, but then it became absolutely spot on.
3:03 am
sprite

am so glad, rose :) Glad you got a chance to really enjoy it.
3:04 am
sprite

hehehe I think you would hate it here right now. Even though the sun is out, the temps are around freezing point. Literally.
3:06 am
grannyrose

i am thinking i would be out there making snow angels...so long as there is a crane to getme upright again.
3:06 am
sprite

weather forecast says it will snow the day after Xmas. Tomorrow. We'll see.
3:10 am
sprite

oh not sure I told you... I have signed up to a gym nearby to do some fitness twice a week. It is only 7.50 euro per month as long as I go in the low hours.
3:10 am
grannyrose

sprite!! please don't let them push you too hard. they have to understand your physical background.
3:12 am
sprite

they aren't allowed to push me at all, I have decided for myself. I am going to start very very low, and slowly work up my way to a level that is still comfortable. As long as I am using all muscle groups, it is an improvement to what I am doing now. No way I am gonna overdo it.
3:12 am
grannyrose

okay!! good for you, sweetie. then go for it!
3:13 am
sprite

:) I think it will be good for me. I have unlimited access during the low hours. Those are daily from 7 am till 5 pm, and the whole weekend. Should be easy to find 2 times that suit our schedules.
3:18 am
sprite

you still with me? Or preparing meds?
3:19 am
grannyrose

still here, unfortunately the dr who christmas special is on.
3:19 am
grannyrose

trying to stay focussed on you.
3:19 am
sprite

oh sweetie, that is not necessary. Go enjoy Dr Who. I am almost done here and I will be here many days to come. Same cannot be said for the Dr :)
3:22 am
grannyrose

now stop that!! you are more important than a tv show. xoxox
3:23 am
sprite

hehehe not really. And I want you to enjoy the show. Dr Who is so much fun.
3:31 am
sprite

fireflies. A big *hug* for you, rose. Have fun with the show and for later, sleep well.
And to all, a blessed day and a peaceful night.
3:32 am
grannyrose

WTG SPRITE!!! hope your day is wonderful, sweetie. xoxox
3:37 am
grannyrose

and so my boxing day is almost over. for all of you celebrating our Lord's birth, i hope you are having a wonderful time. for those of you just enjoying the break, i also wish that you are having a wonderful time. xoxox

4:27 am
grannyrose

grannyrose

4:29 am
grannyrose

crossy, christmas eve, i was awake until 4am. then slept til 7am when we got up to get ready for 9am church.
4:29 am
crosshair

lol, she has one eye open, the other half-closed, and almost recognizes what is going on around her. I best get her a cuppa, brb
4:29 am
grannyrose

it takes me nearly 90 minutes to get ready to go any where...*sigh*
4:30 am
rubyfoo

not to brag or anthing, but I made the best dinner I've ever cooked yesterday but, sadly, it was just the two of us
4:30 am
grannyrose

crossy, please give her my love at the same time...
4:30 am
crosshair

I always lie to her and say any appt is one hour earlier than it actually is... it almost works out perfectly by the time my beloved is ready to go
4:31 am
grannyrose

nice crossy. us girls need the extra time, mate. you are so sweet to recognise that need.
4:32 am
crosshair

It works out well; she still thinks she is racing the clock, while I secretly know that we are more or less on time:)
4:32 am
grannyrose

ruby...should i be asking? ....just what did you cook?
4:33 am
rubyfoo

snails for starters,then stuffed capon with cranberry-orange sasuc, cauliflower au gratin, sweet potatoes and a pumpkin pie. Same stuff I usally make, but the capon was better
4:37 am
crosshair

Wow! sounds high-end!
4:38 am
rubyfoo

did you read what ruru had yesterday? Mine pales in comparison!
4:39 am
crosshair

We had the standard turkey, a carrot/parsnip blend, whipped taters, stuffing and for dessert crossy's famous apple crumble dessert!
4:40 am
rubyfoo

I cooked the capon the way I would have made a turkey, same stuffing, cheesecloth covering, etc.
4:40 am
crosshair

and yorkies, of course
4:41 am
crosshair

I am glad the bird turned out well for you, ruby:)
4:41 am
rubyfoo

I don't know how to ae those but must run along with you-know-who
4:41 am
rubyfoo

make yorkiesm but could knit one out of the combings from the pups
4:43 am
rubyfoo

nbt and 105, but nothing bigger than a 6! see you later. *woof*
4:43 am
grannyrose

both meals sound so yummy. sorry...was off getting meds ready.
4:45 am
crosshair

Yorkie mix is easy; 1 cup of flour, 1 cup of milk, 3 eggs, dash of sea salt and a hand full of shredded cheddar if desired. Mix it all up and let the batter come to room temperature. pre-heat oven to 425F. Grease muffin tin with bacon or bird drippings or butter for that matter. pre-heat coated muffin tin in hot oven for 2 minutes and then pour mix in. cook until risen and tops are golden brown. serve with butter and gravy
4:45 am
grannyrose

we had a store-bought bbq chicken, seafood salad, and some basic salad with it.....but to follow was don's christmas pudding with brandy cream and egg nog.
4:46 am
grannyrose

crossy, your recipe is very similar to mine. yum!!!
4:47 am
crosshair

some add baking powder/soda, but i believe it alters the taste and consistancy
4:48 am
grannyrose

absolutely, crossy. i am not a big fan of baking soda.
4:48 am
crosshair

and always,always,always cook them 5 minutes longer than you think they need to be!
4:49 am
grannyrose

one of the ladies at church makes yo-yo's with baking soda...and i can so taste it...yuch!!
4:49 am
crosshair

I find it turns my yorkie consistancy to almost a dense muffin centre instead of the hollow yorkies I love
4:49 am
grannyrose

ahhh, crossy. have you made toad-in-a-hole with that recipe?
4:50 am
crosshair

I use yorkie mix for toad-in-the hole
4:50 am
crosshair

:)
4:50 am
crosshair

and honey-garlic bangers
4:50 am
grannyrose

lool....we are one
4:51 am
grannyrose

i love the flavour which permeates the yorlie.
4:51 am
crosshair

sometimes, if i am brave, I will add a pinch of garlic to my yorkie mix;)
4:51 am
grannyrose

ooh...* on bended knee* please send me that recipe.
4:53 am
crosshair

I bake it in a lasagne dish and instead of laying the pre-cooked sausages in whole, I cut them into coins and spread them throughout the mix and I add a dollop of honey to the yorkie mix and cook for 30 min
4:54 am
grannyrose

oh...i am in ecstasies here...
4:55 am
crosshair

You can herb and spice to suit. yorkie mix is so versatile:)
4:55 am
grannyrose

along with the cooked crossy breakfasts, i want one of those. it sounds so delish
4:55 am
crosshair

make it with bacon strips sometime and you will know heaven;)
4:56 am
grannyrose

oh, dear....i have died and gone to heaven...lol
4:57 am
crosshair

We used to carry chunks of it when camping or hiking. Is an easy way to get your bread and protein in one go;)
4:58 am
crosshair

My mum used to make home-made bread with slivers of roast beef throughout
4:58 am
grannyrose

absolutely crossy...but no hiking for me....you do understand
4:58 am
crosshair

Made for a great sandwich
4:58 am
crosshair

Of course i do, that is why I take pictures for you to enjoy. you can see them on my website
4:59 am
grannyrose

roflool....don just said...no good for honey sandwiches.
5:02 am
grannyrose

he is such a pleb.
5:02 am
crosshair

I have not had a honey sandwich in years!
5:05 am
crosshair

I love the good, earthy food, toad in the hole, meat pies, egg and bacon pies, sausages, hearty beef stew, fresh home-made crusty breads. it is the Limey in me coming out:)
5:05 am
grannyrose

we bought white bread to make the crumbs for his christmas pudding....heaps left over, of white bread...
5:06 am
grannyrose

today, my SIL made little quiches...the usual ones...and some with salmon in them.
5:06 am
crosshair

mmm, sounds tasty
5:06 am
crosshair

and lets not forget my bubble and squeak:)
5:08 am
grannyrose

ahhhh...but is it the true bubble and squeak...using up left over vegs and meats??
5:08 am
crosshair

That is almost better than christmas dinner--all the days of bubble and squeak that comes afterwards!
5:09 am
crosshair

yup, you add all your leftovers to the hot pan and add a few rashers of bacon and a couple of eggs to keep it all company
5:09 am
crosshair

My da used to add kippers, but I do not care for that
5:10 am
grannyrose

nice crossy...exactly how i make it...
5:10 am
crosshair

the bacon drippings make it squeak delightfully;)
5:12 am
grannyrose

yup
5:12 am
crosshair

and only 10,000 calories a plate!
5:12 am
crosshair

5:13 am
grannyrose

crossy, have just finished viewing the version of pitates of penzance with kevin kline and linda rondstadt....what an amazing production.
5:13 am
crosshair

i love you aussies as we share a similar love of many foods!:)
5:14 am
grannyrose

crossy...surely one of your hikes/walks would fix that problem.....lolol
5:14 am
crosshair

lol, I hike just to stay husky:)
5:14 am
crosshair

I will have to look that play up
5:15 am
grannyrose

it's wonderful....
5:17 am
crosshair

Christmas break has been wonderful so far. i have been able to give Othello a rest, and read for pure enjoyment for a change;)
5:18 am
grannyrose

lovely, crossy. it's so nice to read something with no obligations behind it.
5:19 am
crosshair

Othello, when you strip it down to its bare bones, is actually quite a boring story--a tragedy, but still a tad dull:)
5:20 am
grannyrose

crossy?? i have a lot of pics from my family gathering today. would it be okay to send you some? in about a few days? i need for himself to sort out the size of them.
5:20 am
crosshair

i think people are more in love with the language of the time in which it was written than any true merits that the story itself may have;)
5:20 am
crosshair

I would love to see a few of your pictures, rose
5:20 am
sukee

Good morning all.

5:22 am

Though I did learn to hate Ensign Iago quite quickly!
5:22 am
grannyrose

g'day sukee. you caught me just as i was about to leave, hin.
5:23 am
sukee

Well, have a great day.
5:24 am
grannyrose

crossy? i am one of the fortunate few. my grandfather passed onto me a love of language and it's origins. one of the reasons my dictionary is so battered.
5:25 am
grannyrose

my pillows are singing so sweetly. i hope to see you tomorrow. xoxox
5:25 am
crosshair

I also love language, but a few of the terms the Bard uses are a tad obscure even for me:)
5:26 am
crosshair

crossy tidbit. recently in France, they found a first folio collection of Shakespeare's entire works that was printed in 1625!
5:27 am
crosshair

tc , Rose, and have a good sleep
5:27 am

crossy....shakespeare is one of my absolute faves....
5:27 am
grannyrose

xoxox crossy and sukee.
5:28 am

Night.
5:29 am
crosshair

The folio was just sitting on a shelf in some private collection. it had been cataloged as a late 1800's re-print until they found their error!
5:29 am
sukee

Interesting.
5:29 am
sukee

traw
5:29 am
sukee

oops
5:29 am
crosshair

it is a bit battered, and missing 30 pages or so, but it has rocked the literary world and is worth a tidy sum.
5:30 am

5:41 am
sukee

I enjoyed it.
5:42 am
Lizlin

So did we - liked all the layers.
5:44 am
sukee

I only watched about 3 older episodes and some specials yesterday. Then watched Dr. Who and Miranda, then a Mrs.Browns Boys special and then Vicious at 10:30 :) So, it was a good TV day :)
5:45 am
Lizlin

Sounds like a really relaxing sort of day - not a bad thing.

well i got that one, it seemed like the camera one was for a different one, because the person said no i have that one, and then they got the second clue

Oh boy
9:14 am

I was feeling really bad about it...until I realized - I didn't ask them to come here, I am under no obligation to open my door. I am in my jammies, I do not wish to receive callers right now. My house, my choice.

I had heard the McNamara family on Forest Street had a good light display - TOTAL understatement! What they did is extraordinary! They have THOUSANDS of lights, and you tune your car radio to 88.7 and you hear Brendans' voice wishing you Merry Christmas, and then music plays and the lights are coordinated! IT's AMAZING.

There is a nasty head and chest thing going around that lasts for weeks. Unfortunately it has been through my house.

The original meaning of "boxing day" is that the elite gave "boxes" of things to the hired help the day after Christmas. I'd rather think about it in other ways.
11:02 am
jmcnrick

yes the after christmas sales are almost as bad as the black friday sales. . .
11:02 am

Yes I was explaining that to my sister's children yesterday, Molly!
11:02 am
rururocks

the freeways were a mess yesterday.. it took me hours and hours to get home
11:03 am

although i always thought it should be green friday but maybe that makes me a xenophobist
11:03 am

I need some "hired help" .. I'm happy to box for them :D

11:06 am
zoozzoom

Not sure, ru, parents were saying something about California had a massive lump of snow..But to be honest I was sort of half listening.
11:06 am

because this is an semi abandoned office and i can't find teh light switch. . .
11:06 am

11:07 am

how much does it cost to have a lawyer pull a switch ?
11:07 am
jmcnrick

well you were behind on rain so i am guessing this is a good thing kje
11:08 am
jmcnrick

$10,000. . . $1 for pulling it and $9999 for kowing which to pull
11:08 am
kje

yes, very good jmc, no complaints here
11:08 am
zoozzoom

Nice one, Jmc!
11:08 am

$400 for the consult, a $1000 retainer and $2500 for the actual work.

Well i thought woot was a word. Have idea why i thought that mind.
11:14 am
kje

not very exciting, ru - nasacort, antihistamines, ibuprofen, some tums, tylenol, and an antibiotic cream or two, prob expired.... I avoid meds when I can
11:14 am
zoozzoom

Have no idea why*
11:14 am
kje

jmc's son prob has the right idea ; )
11:14 am
kje

oh, sudafed too, always sudafed
11:15 am

woodism is a great word
11:15 am
jmcnrick

well poot is a word too and dumb enable doesn't accept it. . . not dirty enough for enable
11:15 am
rururocks

I use allegra and astelin.. for my allergies.. works better for me
11:16 am
jmcnrick

i just want him to take sudafed for a stopped up head that pains him. . . does that make me a bad mother?
11:16 am
jmcnrick

i never let them give him antibiotics until the tests came back. . . .
11:17 am
zoozzoom

Of course it does not make you a bad mother, Jmc.
11:17 am
kje

it's all just symptom relief for a cold... so I guess if the symptoms bother him enough, he'll take it... make him some chicken soup?
11:17 am
rururocks

it makes you an over-the-counter mother
11:17 am
zoozzoom

ooh now i want chicken soup!
11:18 am
MollyL

Isn;t sudafed the stuff they use to make crystal meth?
11:18 am

mostly... just isolate him so he doesn't infect the rest of you! ; ))
11:18 am

yes..
11:18 am

11:19 am
rururocks

when you buy a big package here of benedryl (for my dog) they ask you for your id
11:19 am
kje

not benadryl... just pseudo ephedrine. Thus they have made all of our lives a PITA having to go to the pharm window and stand in line for a decongestant
11:19 am

Good grief, Jmc!

it is dangerous, jmc - crazy what people will do

i was so glad when we finally got rid of that house. . . i feared that someone would come into unoccupied and blow it up. . . . not a great neighborhood. . .
11:20 am

a perfect ending for a meth maker in my opinion

12:18 pm

I dont know what the other one is as I have not listed yet
12:18 pm
MimiCat

River, if you're not already doing so, take supplemental magnesium to help with pain...really works for me and is especially good for muscle pain.
12:19 pm
mkg

river i would love a clue for that po. ty.
12:19 pm
Riverdance

Its not muscle pain though - I am bone on bone
12:19 pm
mkg

never mind i just got it! ty ty ty
12:21 pm
MimiCat

But often when there is another kind of pain muscles will react to it and add to the problem. Just a suggestion. And for OTC pain relief, I really like Aleve better than anything else. I'm having oral surgery 1/8 so will be using that a lot!
12:21 pm
Riverdance

good for you mkg
12:22 pm
Riverdance

I like Aleve too but it barely takes the edge off. I need to stop taking everything next week - 2 weeks before surgery. They are all blood thinners and so need to stop them. That will be tough - no Aleve and no Advil allowed.
12:23 pm
Riverdance

Prescription pain meds - Tramadol and Vicodin do not work anymore
12:23 pm
MimiCat

Then they'd better give you some good prescription meds.
12:23 pm
MollyL

Just a friendly reminder folks, always check with your doctor before taking supplemental anything. Especially if you are on other medications.
12:24 pm
MimiCat

Good luck, River. I hope it goes well. A friend's mother had that surgery at age 84 and there's just no stopping her now!
12:24 pm
Riverdance

I have been living with this for a long time - I can make it through another couple of weeks. Yes Molly I need to give my whole of list of meds including supplements to Doc on Monday. They will tell me what I can keep taking. I do take a supplement from my chiro for joint pain - I will probably have to stop that too.
12:25 pm
Riverdance

thats what folks tell me Mimi. Thanks everyone for your well wishes. I will have my kindle at the hospital and they have WIFI so I can play.
12:26 pm

I need some lunch so will be back later - have a great day folks

Hello anybody who is still here. I'd like to report that Christmas chez Soodle was a huge success! Mother behaved impeccably, I didn't poison anybody, no fights broke out, all in all, as good as I could have hoped for. Mother has been returned to her own domicile, & I have a nice bottle of Sanscerre chilling for later. Whew!

Ruby, my daughter Sarah gave me a truly wonderful Christmas present, but I fear it might interfere with our plans.... She has bought & paid for a week in Gran Canaria for me & her in the middle of April. Perhaps we can reschedule for May?

rururocks

what's a pooka?
3:10 pm

In Irish folklore, a pooka is a kind or evil spirit (mostly evil according to the stories) It manifests in different ways, usually in the form of an animal with demon eyes
3:11 pm

3:11 pm
rururocks

wouldn't that be a bushka?
3:12 pm
jesdraggon

I thought bushka was russian for cutie?
3:12 pm
MollyL

Americans get pooka confused with puka, the shells of the famous necklaces of the 70's
3:12 pm
rururocks

oh.. there's a joke there
3:12 pm
rururocks

puka is what I did a lot of in college
3:13 pm
jesdraggon

you shouldn't eat the green turkey, ruru
3:13 pm
jesdraggon

i mean, i know you were poor in college, but there's gotta be limits.
3:13 pm
rururocks

I should have eaten more bushka
3:14 pm
rururocks

god.. can you believe that green turkey hoax? who did that Ted Cruz?
3:14 pm
jesdraggon

3:33 pm
pippingeek

statistics. it's online and i found myself with about 3 weeks to do 11 weeks worth of material
3:34 pm
jesdraggon

oh, have a side dish of stress with that? :D
3:34 pm
jesdraggon

so something totally non-statistical to think about, yes. that can be arranged.
3:35 pm
pippingeek

i'm thinking a movie, either Into the Woods or Unbroken
3:35 pm
jesdraggon

i recommend wtfevoluion.tumblr.com
3:36 pm
rururocks

i have been thinking about the Hobbit movie as a matinee
3:40 pm
jesdraggon

we were considering going to see Annie
3:41 pm
rururocks

I heard Annie sucks
3:41 pm
rururocks

at least the critics hate it
3:41 pm
rururocks

for what that is worth
3:42 pm
jesdraggon

depends on which critics, i guess
3:42 pm
rururocks

i read a pretty scathing review on that movie
3:42 pm
jesdraggon

why did they hate it?
3:43 pm
rururocks

flat.. acting mostly as i remember
3:43 pm
rururocks

you can read it on SF Gate .com
3:43 pm
jesdraggon

ok
3:44 pm
rururocks

i'm not crazy about their movie critic at SF Gate.. however.. he loved Reds..one of the worst movies of all time
3:45 pm
pippingeek

oh, i love Reds, i can't help it
3:46 pm
pippingeek

well, I'm going with Into the Woods, based on friends and imdb
3:46 pm
pippingeek

and I have good cheap dumplings to eat while I watch it!
3:47 pm
rururocks

imdb?
3:49 pm
pippingeek

internet movie database - info, ratings, everything cinematic you could want to know
3:52 pm
rururocks

oh.. never heard of it.. check out annie there then jes?
3:52 pm
jesdraggon

enjoy, pippingeek; and lemme know how you like it, as that's the other movie we were thinking of.
3:53 pm
jesdraggon

just read a handful of reviews of Annie - sounds like kind of a mix bag
3:57 pm
pippingeek

i guess i'll let you know in a couple hours, just gonna heat up my dumplings
3:57 pm
pippingeek

oof, the annie rating is 4.6 out of 10, i rarely see them go that low.
3:59 pm
jesdraggon

yeah... none of the people I usually read reviews from seem to've seen it though, and I often disagree strongly with 'standard' reviewers.
4:06 pm
pippingeek

and the reviews all seem to agree that kids are fine with it
4:11 pm
MollyL

Having seen the stage performance of Into The Woods, I have no interest in the odd film interpretation.
4:14 pm
MollyL

Rotten Tomatoes reviews: Into The Woods: Good
Annie: Not so Good
4:50 pm
Uneaixoise

was never very fond of Annie -- stage or screen . . . and I agree with NPR reviewer who said to leave after first half of Into the Woods -- saw it twice on stage and very much enjoyed the first half but not at all the very dark second half
4:52 pm
MollyL

It's not a happy story Une. Anything based on the premise "be careful what you wish for" is sure to have dark undertones.
4:52 pm
Uneaixoise

Yes i know
4:56 pm
Uneaixoise

Uneaixoise

5:11 pm
rururocks

5:11 pm
rururocks

5:17 pm
Uneaixoise

indeed
5:18 pm
rururocks

Julianne's scene in the pharmacy is a heart-stopper
5:18 pm
Uneaixoise

I need to rewatch
5:18 pm
rururocks

5:20 pm
rururocks

so worth it.. even Cruise (handicapped as he is as an actor) was really good in that film
5:20 pm

rururocks

If you really like that I have others.. it's a great story line.. kind of Thelma and Louiseish.. with weird twists
5:23 pm
rururocks

I know you'll love it
5:24 pm
Uneaixoise

crap -- only available in VHS
5:25 pm
rururocks

still worth it
5:26 pm
Uneaixoise

5:26 pm

We were in a small gym and about 80 kindergarteners were running around and delighting in the noise; so I couldn't hear everything we were being told
8:21 pm

I bet it was noisy but sounds like they had a good time

evening all! happy boxing day

Nef

It was fun; very loud; but fun. He was so proud of his projects about each one too. And he's been going on about Menorahs now too. I have a nurse friend who sent me a card with one on the front; I always put white paper on the basement door (which opens into the kitchen and side entry) and tape up all of me holiday cards there. HE had to draw a menorah before I could put up the card from her; and the card had to be next to his drawing

Alas, the poor Pagans. Heavily responsible for all these "celebrations of light" and yet they are never mentioned in the festivals.
8:39 pm

If not, have a good evening everyone.
8:39 pm

No, thanks, why. I'm not going to finish but am already half way in less than an hour

the mis are kicking my butt. HOWEVER, I have lovely chocolate coconut macaroons which are delicious and make the world a better place.
9:20 pm
Nef

sounds delicious, jes.
9:20 pm
Nef

home made ??
9:20 pm
jesdraggon

yep :)
9:21 pm
Nef

I have home made "bacon and egg" cookies.
9:21 pm
jesdraggon

hah! found the 8 and9
9:21 pm
jesdraggon

bacon and egg cookies? i am intrigued...
9:22 pm
Nef

(pretzels, white almond bark and yellow reeses pieces all arranged like tiny breafast plate
9:22 pm
jesdraggon

ah, not actually cookies that taste like bacon...
9:23 pm
Nef

(the 2 inch long straight pretzels
9:24 pm
Nef

quick & easy to do with a kid; and they are a tradition here (along with deviled eggs) with all holidays
9:24 pm
jesdraggon

nice :) we make puppy chow.
9:25 pm
Nef

I think we used to make it once upon a time; but I haven't made it in many years
9:28 pm
Nef

puppy chow has some sort of cereal; powdered sugar and what else?
9:30 pm
jesdraggon

peanut butter i think
9:33 pm
jesdraggon

and chocolate
9:33 pm
Nef

I went & looked it up: chex mix cereal, peanut butter, chocolate chips and powdered sugar. Easy enough for me to make! :-D
9:48 pm

9:50 pm
mkg

ty. any clues nef?
9:51 pm
Nef

mkg; I can't think of anything that makes sense anymore. Sorry.
9:52 pm
mkg

ok. ty. is it a common word we use?
9:52 pm
Nef

not at all. the definition says it's a feudal lord who was a vassal of a shogun
9:53 pm
mkg

ugh. so japanese word. i think i have seen it now and do know it but how was that weird word spelled? ty for that clue. i can get itnow.
9:54 pm
Nef

it ends like oh solo ***? (but I don't know that oldsong either
9:58 pm
mkg

got it. ty. just took time.
9:59 pm
mkg

i read the book shogun. it was in there.

hi flosey

Hi flosey; how are you?
10:01 pm
flosey

good thanks Nef, and you?
10:02 pm
jesdraggon

7 left
10:03 pm
Nef

doing fine, mostly.
10:03 pm
Nef

GO, jes!! You can do it!
10:03 pm
flosey

does the mi8 and 9 have anything to do with the mi4/9?
10:04 pm
Nef

son & grandson are mostly moved out to their own apartment about 5 minutes from here; but my son's left the basement (his room, bathroom, and the family area) totally trashed this weekend
10:05 pm
jesdraggon

hmm. ko5/26 is not how i'd have spelled that.
10:05 pm
Nef

yes, flosey
10:05 pm
flosey

thanks Nef, sorry about the mess you're left to clean up but nice that they're in their own place and close enough to visit
10:07 pm
Nef

I'm going to try to make them clean int up this weekend
10:08 pm
flosey

good for you - hope you are successful there
10:08 pm
Nef

Thanks for that clue, jes. It's not how I'd spell it either
10:09 pm
Nef

me too, flossy; it may take some nagging though
10:09 pm
flosey

nag away!
10:10 pm
flosey

sometimes the only language they understand!
10:10 pm
Nef

LOL! Sometimes it's a lot easier to do stuff instead of nagging
10:13 pm
Nef

But I refuse to clean up their mess: they moved in to a newly finished and painted area; they can at least clean up their mess and get rid of the garbage that's scattered all over
10:14 pm
jesdraggon

mi5/14 please?
10:14 pm
Nef

I'm freezing; I'm going to find my robe and make some tea. BBS
10:16 pm
Nef

looking jes
10:19 pm
Nef

mi 5/14 it looks like an erroneous hairstyle
10:19 pm
jesdraggon

off to walk dogs. back in a few.
10:33 pm
jesdraggon

erroneous hair? hmm...
10:34 pm
jesdraggon

thanks :)
10:35 pm
Nef

I have very weird clues sometimes
10:36 pm
jesdraggon

it worked
10:36 pm
stidmama

hey there
10:36 pm
stidmama

down to 38
10:36 pm
Nef

maybe someday I should look at what Enable says the word means; it might help
10:36 pm
jesdraggon

hi stid :)
10:36 pm
Nef

hi stid! How are you feeling tonight?
10:36 pm
jesdraggon

it says to do wrongly, botch
10:37 pm
stidmama

not bad. A little tired/depressed, but it's that time of year and I ran out of a supplement that helps, so I know I just have to live through it. How about you?
10:37 pm
Nef

that would have been a better clue, jes
10:37 pm
stidmama

no wonder you didn't know that word, jes! *grin* it doesn't apply to you!
10:38 pm
Nef

Vitamin D; stid?
10:38 pm
jesdraggon

oh, hardly. i make mistakes all the time. I just try to catch 'em before they grow.
10:38 pm
stidmama

yep
10:38 pm
stidmama

:-D
10:39 pm
Nef

I take it year round because it also helps the "little grey cells" you know
10:40 pm
stidmama

didn't know about the brain effect -- just know it helps me have the mental and physical energy to get through the days
10:42 pm
jesdraggon

no for the other mi5/14...
10:44 pm
Nef

I'd never used it until a couple of years ago DH's neurologist told him he should take it because it helps prevent falls and can help prevent falls and seems to have some protective effect for MS pts. (preventing new lesions)
10:44 pm
jesdraggon

er, now for... see? mistakes were made.
10:47 pm
stidmama

good to know -- part of the issue was the supply I had been using was getting low so I stopped at the end of summer when we still had sunlight. When I tried taking it again I reacted to the gelatin capsules... had to look around a while to find a vegan version. That cow allergy is getting pretty intense. :-(
10:48 pm
Nef

I'm sorry to hear that, stid
10:49 pm
Nef

jes, do youneed a clue? I just found it
10:49 pm
stidmama

a measurement of thickness (like in plastic), and a short name for a parent
10:49 pm
jesdraggon

please :)
10:49 pm
torgone

mi5/14 = first part of cow juice + ma's mate
10:49 pm
jesdraggon

thanks, that's firewords :)
10:50 pm
Nef

most of a dairy drink + the male parent
10:50 pm
stidmama

ah, now watching a poirot... LOVE Poirot. I believe Tom and I need to break out the rest of the spice cake and indulge...
10:50 pm
stidmama

YAY jes!!!
10:50 pm
Nef

YAY, jes!!! WTG!!!
10:50 pm
stidmama

(((((tor))))) how are you? Not too soggy, I hope?
10:50 pm
torgone

Yay jes!
10:51 pm
torgone

A bit cool, but only a little bit of rain yesterday ..
10:51 pm
torgone

and Heyas kids ..
10:51 pm
Nef

we love poi rot also. (That's where the "little grey cells" came from)
10:51 pm
stidmama

not so bad then. Good -- best for the ecosystem when the rain comes a little more slowly. :-)
10:52 pm
Nef

hi Tor!
10:53 pm
Nef

We had a green Christmas this past week. Now tonight we've already had 2 inches of snow in less than 2 hours
10:54 pm
jesdraggon

no snow here yet
10:54 pm
stidmama

oh, that seems like a lot! (from the person who lives at sea level in a mostly moderate climate)
10:54 pm
stidmama

really jes? I would have thought you had at least some by now.
10:54 pm
jesdraggon

we had some a month ago, but it melted off and was in the 40s for several weeks.
10:55 pm
stidmama

I suppose that makes it easier to get to and from work, though -- I have sure been glad to not have a lot of snow/ice this year, I would hate to miss a day of teaching just from spinning out on the road.
10:55 pm
stidmama

oh, that must have been when we had temps in the teens -- so bitterly cold. I started letting the kids in 20 minutes early!
10:55 pm
Nef

The snow tonight is that soft white fluffy stuff; we're under a "weather advisory" but it definitely isn't a storm
10:56 pm
jesdraggon

i don't mind driving in the snow, actually. it's more the other people that are problematic
10:56 pm
Nef

agree, jes.
10:57 pm
stidmama

yes -- I am the same, jes -- 4WD is less an advantage and more an incentive to drive aggressively in unsafe conditions
11:01 pm
Nef

The people in the ditches are usually the ones who have the 4WD
11:11 pm
stidmama

exactly -- which creates a hazard for the rest of us while they cartwheel down the road and into the ditch
11:12 pm
stidmama

well, I will just have to list, I suppose
11:14 pm
Nef

Boy, even with the list I can't always find the words.
11:14 pm
jesdraggon

need clues?
11:17 pm
Nef

not me; thanks for the offer though. I'mhaving a dizzy spell and am trying to get rid of itby relaxing and concentrating on the game
11:17 pm
stidmama

hold on...
11:17 pm
stidmama

*very concerned mama look* dizzy spell? do you have those often?
11:17 pm
Nef

I am, stid! ;-)
11:20 pm
jesdraggon

hey, sitting quietly is good for dizzy spells, and also for babble :)
11:22 pm
Nef

It's some mild vertigo. I guess a person gets some little bits of calcium in there inner ear that can upset your sense of balance. there are some positions that you can do yourself (one is sort of a half somersault); but I've found that I need to just try to relax first before I do it
11:22 pm
Nef

Or I'll fall
11:24 pm
Nef

It's just another thing that proves aging isn't for sissys
11:25 pm
stidmama

oh -- I am glad you know the cause and treatment for your spells -- I just worried a little because my Granny had "spells" for a couple of years before she fell. I am sure they were undiagnosed TIAs, which are common in our family.
11:25 pm
Nef

(my spelling sucks tonight too)
11:26 pm
stidmama

I am CERTAIN I already entered some of these "new" words!
11:26 pm
stidmama

ah -- spelling hardly counts any more, I have so many tyops *grin intentional one there* and my eyes cannot even see most of them
11:28 pm
Nef

Vertigo is a sudden attack wear you're just doing nothing and then the whole house goes topsy turkey; your proprioception is gone and it's like you're trying to stand up and the room is a big tilt-a-whirl
11:30 pm
stidmama

It does NOT sound like fun.
11:32 pm
Nef

it isn't DH had to go to PT for it for nearly a month; now this new method works better and lasts longer (costs less in time , effort, trouble and $$$ too)
11:33 pm
stidmama

I am glad that you found an easier solution
11:34 pm
stidmama

RE 6/33 please?
11:34 pm
Nef

Now if YOU can find a solution to your hip problem!
11:35 pm
Nef

combo word, stid; type of wood cutting devise
11:36 pm
stidmama

I think it might be just loose connective tissue, the one that makes the most sense is iliopsoas (sp?) based on the onset and location of pain
11:36 pm
stidmama

aha! of course. thanks nef
11:36 pm
stidmama

down to 26...
11:37 pm
stidmama

and thanks also GR, I see you lurking!!!!! *happy mama look to see friends online*
11:37 pm
grannyrose

in 24 minutes, cab be done. {{hugs}} stiddy. {{hugs}} nef
11:37 pm
Nef

you know before I had my hip replacement; I'd pulled my psoas muscle and then it wouldn't heal? Have you had x-rays taken lately?
11:37 pm
grannyrose

oh dear, that looks like i have a cold...CAN not cab
11:38 pm
stidmama

rofl, GR!
11:38 pm
stidmama

I have not, nef, and in no hurry to do so. The last time they decided to do a scan there was NO bone damage, and the dye they used caused very unpleasant reactions. I didn't sleep for several weeks, from the pain.
11:39 pm
Nef

hi grannyrose.
11:39 pm
grannyrose

*puzzled look* but stiddy with the latest technology, they can get really good ultrasounds now.
11:40 pm
Nef

Just get a plain old x-ray, stid. No fancy Ct or MRI
11:40 pm
grannyrose

the techs nowadays can define tendons, muscles everything.
11:41 pm
stidmama

hm. well, maybe I can try again.
11:41 pm
stidmama

I cannot do anything right now...
11:42 pm
grannyrose

oops....home is the hunter from on the hill. don back with the groceries. going to help put them away. brb
11:43 pm

later GR
11:44 pm

I'll see if I can get something going in the Spring -- I have a lot of teaching to do in the next several months before the tests.
11:44 pm
Nef

I need a clue for that simple sa4/6 that I totally can't see
11:44 pm
Nef

NM, I just found it!
11:45 pm

ooooh. found the 8/9 word!

it's not, and i am very sad that enable doesn't take pooka
11:49 pm

GO 4/14 is silly...
11:50 pm

jes, wasn't there a jimmy stewart film about his pet pooka?
11:54 pm
Nef

I need to give up now; time to see if I can knock the rocks out of my head!
11:55 pm

poor nef. hope you can sleep dear.
