1:19 am

only you could get away with a remark like that, ruru.

1:20 am

rururocks

Hope you've had a good day.

1:47 am

grannyrose

busy day liz. took don's car in to get a RWC as we have sold it to my stepgrandson. that was at 8:30am. then down to dealers to pick up our new car at 10:30am. just sitting quietly on my own at the present.don has gone to surgeon about his shoulder.no tv, no don....so peaceful

1:48 am

Lizlin

Sounds idyllic. And how's the new car?

1:48 am

Lizlin

And has Don been happier today? Should be with the new car!

1:48 am

grannyrose

it's a dream to drive. and don can't take his eyes or hands off it. i think i'm jealous.

1:49 am

Lizlin

LOL! It can't do what you can!

1:49 am

grannyrose

don't start me. his lockable steel cabinet arrived today for all his camera equipment. you kn4 that empty space i had?

1:50 am

Lizlin

I guess it's no more :(

1:50 am

grannyrose

it isn't empty anymore. and you should have heard him putting it together

1:51 am

Lizlin

So, Don's got the car. Don's got the cabinet. What've you got?

1:51 am

grannyrose

honestly, you would think the maker of the cabinet was out to get him. i ended up helping him would you believe?

1:51 am

Lizlin

And don't say peace and quiet, while he's out!

1:51 am

grannyrose

indigestion

1:51 am

Lizlin

I would believe! And I bet it went much more smoothly then.

1:52 am

Lizlin

lol

1:52 am

Lizlin

Think it's catalogue time for Rose - or a lovely pampering day or something.

1:52 am

grannyrose

as you well kn4, a happy husband = a happy wife

1:52 am

Lizlin

1:53 am

Lizlin

1:54 am

Lizlin

Have a wonderful day - I'm sure you will.

1:55 am

grannyrose

ugh...he's home. bye bye happiness

1:55 am

Lizlin

Send him out to polish the car - it probably needs it, if he's been driving.

1:56 am

Lizlin

Still missing 4 x k - sigh!

1:57 am

grannyrose

i actually monkeyed one of mine and got 2

1:58 am

grannyrose

col, he said the car only got a little bit wet.

1:58 am

Lizlin

A little wet! So, he needs to polish off any water marks, let alone muddy splashes.

2:01 am

Lizlin

found a k - 3 missing now.

2:01 am

Lizlin

And 2!

2:02 am

grannyrose

do you have both k7's?

2:02 am

Lizlin

Have kn 7

2:02 am

Lizlin

Wouldn't even have tried that kn 7 if ARB hadn't suggested it.

2:02 am

grannyrose

ah ha. ke6, compound word, and it's plural

2:02 am

Lizlin

Thought it was a proper noun

2:03 am

Lizlin

Thanks, Rose. That's it!

2:04 am

Lizlin

OK - time to go. Friends coming here for dinner tonight. Hugs to you - and to sprite.

2:33 am

sprite

awesome! Hi rose *hugs* my dear friend. Did you enjoy the drive? And did your body cooperate?

2:36 am

grannyrose

sprite, it's heaven on wheels. and not a twinge. so car is all ready for step-grandson to collect. it needed new tyres, new front brakes, and the reservoir for the automatic steering fluid had to be replaced. so not too bad, not as good as we hoped, but not too bad.

2:36 am

sprite

ks killed

2:36 am

sprite

did step-grandson finally decide?

2:36 am

grannyrose

yay sprite. i thought of you as i was playing before.

2:37 am

grannyrose

yup, he has decided. he's not going to get a better car than this for the money.

2:38 am

sprite

he does not realise how lucky he is

2:38 am

grannyrose

it is a good solid car. so long as he doesn't hoon in it, he will be as safe as he is in his own bed.

2:39 am

sprite

when will he come and pick it up?

2:40 am

grannyrose

not sure, we may have to deliver. oh dear, that means i have to drive the NEW car again...col

2:41 am

sprite

oh dear, how yuck. Ah well, it is in a good cause, right?

2:42 am

grannyrose

right!! in the cause of giving rose a sense of delight!!

2:42 am

sprite

2:44 am

Lizlin

2:47 am

Lizlin

2:48 am

gapeach

I am looking at you, darling... wazzup?

2:51 am

2:51 am

sprite

*giggles* Naughty rose

2:51 am

gapeach

Thanks much, Rose.

2:51 am

grannyrose

* giggles *

2:52 am

sprite

I was looking at that car si4. Which blue version of which car?

2:53 am

grannyrose

look for the corolla ascent sport, that's our car. look at the levin, that's the colour

2:53 am

sprite

the grey or the rust colour levin?

2:54 am

grannyrose

the orange colour

2:54 am

sprite

you know it is gonna be a weird day when idiot is a phantom...

2:55 am

Lizlin

You know, I was thinking that - decided against writing it!

2:55 am

sprite

ok! I like the colour, very autumny. Congratz with the new arrival, rose! Baby shower time!

2:55 am

Lizlin

time to go and prepare the fish. Happy to have caught you both again - you too, Peach. Hugs.

2:56 am

sprite

bye Liz, enjoy your dinner *hugs* for you both

2:56 am

grannyrose

enjoy liz. xoxox

3:00 am

sprite

hm, stetson is a proper noun, apparently

3:01 am

grannyrose

yeah, i tried that one too

3:02 am

sprite

have you recovered a little from yesterday's shock?

3:04 am

grannyrose

yeah, i can live with it. mature age diabetes is usually diet/tablet controlled. i think i'm okay.

3:05 am

sprite

*hugs* Yes it is, and that is doable. But not fun to have. Good for you that you could integrate the news.

3:07 am

grannyrose

just not looking forward to the finger pricks each time some nurse wants to check my BSL. you wouldn't believe how many don't kn4 to prick on the side of the finger. they all go for the pad.

3:07 am

sprite

well, you've got your mouth with you. So tell them, or do it yourself. I bought one of those prick pens, they are perfect for the job.

3:08 am

grannyrose

i hear you...i hear you.

3:08 am

sprite

*grin* Emancipation of the patient!

3:20 am

sprite

is Don in a better mood?

3:23 am

sprite

*squirrel*

3:23 am

grannyrose

at the moment yes...this afternoon no. the steel cabinet he bought came as a flat pack. he had some difficulty putting it together. and then i stepped in.

3:24 am

sprite

*hugs rose* I hope you stand up for yourself, darling...

3:24 am

grannyrose

you should have heard the noises each time he dropped a screw...for goodness sake!!

3:25 am

grannyrose

and when i suggested he use the pliers to reach a small lever in the door hinges...well...but he did have the grace to thank me later.

3:25 am

sprite

lol irk :D Maybe, because they don't have periods, they are not used to dropping stuff all the time.

3:27 am

grannyrose

anyway the cabinet is put together, and have a flying stab where it is...

3:28 am

sprite

in the now-empty shed?

3:28 am

grannyrose

that's right, that lovely empty space in our rooms... * sigh *

3:28 am

sprite

awwww poor rose.

3:28 am

grannyrose

*giggle* the shed will never be empty...

3:30 am

sprite

ok, passive=aggresive battle plan: fill up the cabinet with your undies and stuff. When Don complains, tell him that if you have to share your room with it, you are gonna darn well fill it too. It will be moved to the shed in no time ;)

3:31 am

sprite

such a nekkid grid today

3:32 am

grannyrose

nice thought, sprite. but he does have to have some where secure for all his camera equipment. i acknowledge that

3:32 am

sprite

it was a joke, sweetie

3:33 am

sprite

as you know, I don't advocate passive-aggressive, lol. I am more like the blunt one...

3:33 am

grannyrose

maybe i'm a little touchy tonight/day. i have been awake on and off since 1am last night.

3:34 am

sprite

*hugs rose* You are fine the way you are, darling. Touchy or tired or giggly or whatever.

3:35 am

grannyrose

loves ya, sprite

3:36 am

sprite

it is mutual, dear friend.

3:38 am

sprite

have you taken your new meds? Might be nice to turn in early and have a long night?

3:38 am

sprite

fireflies

3:39 am

grannyrose

WTG SPRITE!!!

3:39 am

grannyrose

another hour before meds time. then an hour after that for the next lot.

3:40 am

sprite

ugh, talking about sleep... I could easily sleep another few hours, lol

3:44 am

grannyrose

why don't you dearest?

3:45 am

sprite

don't want to mess up my waking and sleeping rhythms any more than they are already are

3:46 am

sprite

darling, I have to go... nature calls. Sleep well tonight, and take care. *hugs* and lots of love.
And to you all, a blessed day and a peaceful night.

3:47 am

grannyrose

okay, sweetie. {{hugs}} dear. xoxox

Good morning, everyone:)

5:27 am

crosshair

just found a nice un 7/64 8/85 combo. Means uncharted or unexplained.

5:48 am

crosshair

And now it is time for Crossy's tidbit of the day!!! This is something to think about next time you are tempted to by that gold bauble:).....

5:48 am

crosshair

The mines of South Africa can descend as far as 12,000 feet and reach temperatures of 130°F. To produce an ounce of gold requires 38 man hours, 1,400 gallons of water, enough electricity to run a large house for ten days, and chemicals such as cyanide, acids, lead, borax, and lime. In order to extract South Africa’s yearly output of 500 tons of gold, nearly 70 million tons of earth are raised and milled.

6:20 am

crosshair

I have lots of leftover mashed, bits of beef, and even some leftover Brussel snouts;) shall add some tomato and a couple of sunny side ups nestled beside it and it shall be perfect

6:21 am

zoozzoom

No.. it will only be perfect when you add bacon to it..It is not the same for me without bacon bits.

6:22 am

crosshair

Sadly, I have had to omit bacon for the msot part because it is so expensive of late:((

6:22 am

crosshair

most

6:23 am

zoozzoom

True but you would not be having bubble & squeak too often..so it could still be added :-)

6:23 am

crosshair

When bacon becomes more expensive that prime roast beef, it has to be left on the shelf

6:24 am

zoozzoom

Fair enough :-)

6:24 am

crosshair

I miss it, but once a month I try and get a taste of it if I make my way out to the farm and I see the good stuff;)

6:25 am

crosshair

Good quality bacon has been sitting at $6.00 for 3/4 of a pond for a while now. The pigs must be golden indeed:)

6:25 am

crosshair

pound

6:27 am

zoozzoom

The price of bacon does seem to be getting silly..although you can still get some cheap slices here.

6:27 am

crosshair

Market forces will put it back son soon i hope:)

6:27 am

Good morning and HSPD to those who celebrate!

I avoid bottled water. i drink so much, I did not want to be generating all that platic, so I bought a personal sized brita water container. it has its own filter and each mini-filter treats 250 bottles.

6:29 am

crosshair

plastic

6:30 am

zoozzoom

I have a water brita water filter on my kettle and a normal water filter jug too, so no need to buy bottled water.

6:31 am

zoozzoom

And as i am on my own the filters last so much longer :-)

6:31 am

Looking

6:32 am

crosshair

I bring it everywhere with me.

6:32 am

crosshair

You can usually get them at your local big box store for under 10 dollars

6:33 am

crosshair

and it comes with 2 filters in many cases

6:33 am

crosshair

Have to love 500 bottles of treated water for 10 dollars. the refill filter pack has 2 filters and is 6 dollars

6:34 am

zoozzoom

Yes I have seen similar in tesco supermarket here for around £10

6:34 am

crosshair

I would be lost without mine:)

6:34 am

zoozzoom

The filters are about the same price here too.

6:35 am

crosshair

I bought one for my wife and son as well:)

6:35 am

crosshair

We do a lot of hiking in the summer and it comes in handy

6:36 am

zoozzoom

Not too keen on flushing the filters first though.i tend to get a twangy flavor for the first couple of drinks.

6:36 am

zoozzoom

Yes outdoor bottles like the one you have are very good.

6:36 am

crosshair

yes, the first flush comes out black as you activate the filter, but it is all good after that

6:36 am

crosshair

I just run the first bottle down the drain.

6:37 am

zoozzoom

Oh..i have never seen black come out of my kettle or water jug??

6:37 am

crosshair

Only the first time after you change the filter

6:38 am

zoozzoom

Oh I use the maxtra filters, Crossy.Is that the same ones you use?

6:38 am

Sounds like you have coal filters.

Hello Ruby! How are things today?

7:16 am

crosshair

Think I scared Ruby off by hitting on her:))

7:17 am

crosshair

Either that or she had to haul something upstairs to hubby.

7:18 am

rubyfoo

hello car. Husband is doing amazingly well, it's just a question of his not going up and down the stairs unaccompanied. However, he doesn't remember anything I say and yesterday removed his bandages (!!) and woke me at 4AM (2 days in a row) because he couldn't find his glasses and thought it was dinnertime.

7:18 am

crosshair

There she is:)

7:19 am

rubyfoo

By the time he gets better, I'll need to be hospitalized for exhaustion. I think I did 60 flights of stairs yesterday and have lost 2 KG in a week

7:19 am

crosshair

I am glad hubby is recovering well from surgery

7:19 am

car.eeyore

Oh darling! I am sorry for your caregiver trials and tribulations, but I am glad to hear that he is doing well. Please try to take some time for yourself.

7:20 am

crosshair

Acck. eat up Ruby. You are already no bigger than a bird!

7:20 am

rubyfoo

Every time I fall asleep, he says "Are you awake?"

7:20 am

crosshair

Give him a couple hot whiskies before bed and maybe you can get some sleep

7:20 am

car.eeyore

Ummmm...( not wanting to offend)...can you knock him out at bedtime?

7:21 am

crosshair

snap

7:21 am

rubyfoo

He is begging me for his alcohol but as he's taking tramadol, I'm afraid to give him any.

7:21 am

car.eeyore

No! no alcohol then!

7:22 am

rubyfoo

Yesterday, he was so te5 when I said no, that I finally gae him 1/2 shot of Campari with a lot of ice and water.

7:22 am

crosshair

yes, do not want too much booze on top of a opiate:(

7:23 am

rubyfoo

I told him that he had a choice of pain or a cocktail and he preferred the cocktail! Duh

7:24 am

rubyfoo

Yesterday, my two sweet and gentle dogs treed the neighbor's cat (who was, BTW, trespassing). They sat at the bottom of the tree for a long time just watching.

7:24 am

rubyfoo

When the neighbor finally retrieved the kitty, after I had locked up the dogs, Raffie just sast staring up at the tree for a long time.

7:25 am

rubyfoo

Hoping for another furry tree-toy

7:25 am

crosshair

Well, a loose cat has to take its chances if that is how the owner cares for it.

7:25 am

rubyfoo

Our yard is tightly fenced but cats can climb anything

7:26 am

crosshair

Our kitties are indoor only; too many flat cats on the road as it is.

7:26 am

rubyfoo

Her other cat was eviscerated in the field bove us by a badger.

7:26 am

crosshair

ouch, nasty way to go!

7:26 am

rubyfoo

I hadn't known there were badgers here

7:28 am

rubyfoo

This is such an odd place. No edible small animals (squirrels, rabbit) still exist but there are foxes etc.

7:28 am

crosshair

Guess the French did not find badger tasty enough:)

7:30 am

rubyfoo

there are deer (too few to hunt, I think) and wild boars that are evidently real garden pests (also, no fun at dinner parties)

7:30 am

crosshair

we have no wild boar, but we are up to our armpits in white-tailed deer

7:31 am

crosshair

Lots of wild turkeys this year as well

7:32 am

rubyfoo

Every night at 10 or so, my neighbor feeds the foxes in the field and Raffie goes crazy and howls like a wolf

You probably catch that from the kids you take care of

8:00 am

Howdy scrabby. I am sorry you are under the weather:(

8:01 am

All those kids are germ incubators:(

8:01 am

They get it for half a day, pass it onto you, and you have it for 2 weeks;(

I don't feel very ill but I will have no voice in 1-2 days.

8:04 am

My own beloved is having a few days of reactive airway issues. Had to take her to the hospital. they put her on Prednisone for 4 days, and a steroid inhaler:(

8:04 am

Nothing wrong with a quiet woman... crossy ducks and runs for cover....

8:05 am

I started using an Advair inhaler which I used in Nov-Dec when I coughed for 6 wks.

Crossy is getting beat up now.

8:08 am

crosshair

I do not know if it is what we are doing to our environment or what it is, but it is almost to the point where Ventolin should be taken off the rx list and just put on the shelf. Even I need to steal the wifes inhaler for a blast from time to time

8:09 am

Scrabbler

But inhaled steroids are the primary treatment for asthma, not bronchodilators. If OTC people will puff away on albuterol and avoid seeing their doc.

8:10 am

crosshair

You are right:/

8:10 am

crosshair

I leave the wifes steroid inhalers alone

8:11 am

Scrabbler

Advair has a long-acting bronchodilator + steroid.

8:11 am

crosshair

But after a long hike when I am wheezing like a tea kettle, a shot on the blue puffer helps

8:13 am

crosshair

We have never tried advair, but my beloveds asthma is chronic, and been around for decades. I do not think they want her on steroids continuously.

8:13 am

crosshair

We will have to arrange another breathing test for her

8:26 am

Trifioso

8:26 am

But old-style radiator repair is almost a lost art nowadays

8:26 am

Trifioso

at this point it would probably be more cost efficient to fly you here crossy

8:27 am

Trifioso

I do have a question though crossy - should I ask them to haul it away, or keep it? I was thinking they would probably sell it to a scrap metal place. Well, why shouldn't I, and get the money myself?

8:28 am

crosshair

Keep it. If nothing else it has scrap value

8:28 am

Trifioso

thank pet

Sometimes it is easier to have some one haul it away for the scrap they can get from it. Takes a lot of muscle and a heavy vehicle.

9:38 am

Oh but we can

9:38 am

penquis

sometimes, lol....

9:39 am

penquis

in my exercise class yesterday, the instructor said something about St. Patrick's day and someone went on a rant about how he was a murderer and shouldn't be celebrated....

9:40 am

hego

Never heard that .

9:40 am

penquis

perhaps he fought infidels....don't know much about him really....

9:41 am

Jshapiro35

any clue for the 9?

9:42 am

hego

I've read a few things about him, but never heard that one before.

9:42 am

penquis

it builds on the he 8.....to hold back....

9:42 am

MollyL

Maybe it was a PETA person who pities the poor snakes
: D

9:42 am

hego

maybe :)

9:42 am

penquis

hah...perhaps....i thought it was an inconsiderate thing to say....

9:43 am

hego

Takes all kinds Penq.

9:43 am

penquis

very true...

9:43 am

MollyL

It's possible that there are uniformed Pagans who consider St. Patrick a murderer because he converted so many to Catholicism.

9:44 am

penquis

i was glad we were not meeting on the 17th....there probably would have been some little old lady wearing a lot of green who would have been embarrassed...

9:44 am

hego

That's a stretch.

9:44 am

hego

right Penq.

9:48 am

penquis

just saw a business sign on a TV ad...spelled oppurtunity....you'd think someone would have noticed...

9:49 am

MollyL

There are stories that those who could not be converted were killed. Not much basis in fact though. Most Pagans just went underground when the Catholics were stamping their mark on Ireland.

9:49 am

hego

so much grief over religious beliefs. Will it never end?

9:51 am

MollyL

It would be nice if it would end. But it seems to be alive and well (ISIS) these days.

9:51 am

sickening

9:55 am

It's a shame to see people losing their heads over religion

9:55 am

we could but we wont actually need it - I do however have 2 sons and dd and her partner still living at home so help is there if required - we are working on being as independant as possible as we do not want to be dependant on agencies - that may have to come later down the track but for now well we have a life to live:)

Hi Aloy!

10:22 am

Tanja

yes we do so he is a public patient and well looked after in the spinal rehab unit - he qualifies for centrelink and I qualify for carers which means many medications are subsidised - we will be supplied with wheelchair slide boards etc but things like catheters - we get a grant for so much but when you conider that one sort is 1 each and the other he uses is 10 dollars each not a lot really:) but overall Australia has an excellent health care system

I will be getting laminate flooring installed in my house and am looking at Greenguard certified brands. Anybody have advice or suggestions for me? I have been doing research to educate myself.

10:48 am

Judi

Is it snow and glass proof, Scrabbs?

10:49 am

Scrabbler

Yes! The three floor level windows will be replaced with tempered glass soon. My roof will have MANY ice guards installed this summer. It is a year of home improvements!

10:49 am

Judi

Home improvements are good. Especially when they are paid for by insurance.

10:50 am

MLFAN17

Scrab do you have Wndow World where you live?

10:50 am

Scrabbler

I don't know if replacing the carpeting can be covered by insurance or not. I know there are numerous glass shards embedded which is prompting me to finally get laminate flooring.

10:51 am

Scrabbler

A local glass/window company is doing the repairs.

10:51 am

Judi

I should think it would fall under water damage and glass breakage. Best to talk to your agent about that one.

10:51 am

Aloyisius

Ask about the Hardness factor, Scrabbs.. my son has some beautiful laminate in his apt... I admired it and so he inquired.. and the only drawback is that it tends to tear if things are scraped across it, like furniture.. we have laminate in a couple of rooms in Ohio and have not had a problem.. easy to clean, like it a lot.. but I can't remember the brand..bought it at Home Depot on sale I think

10:51 am

MLFAN17

scrab did something happen in your home for you to need so many repairs?

10:52 am

Scrabbler

In an hour a contractor will come by to look at the carpeting and discuss flooring installation.

10:52 am

Judi

Thank goodness the bunnies weren't hurt. Must have been very scary for the poor dears.

10:52 am

Off to lunch. Later!

I arrived home to discover the damages Wed evening. That was 4 living room windows. Chunks of ice in LR. Poor downstairs bunny was scared in his bedroom. The next night the nsow/ice on the other half of the house crashed down (I was home and it was loud) and broke a DR window.

just been through the chat - have laminate in the kitchen - never again! Even though we bought the heaviest in the market, it is still full of nicks and dents -- everywhere a knife has dropped, and a huge one where the electrician dropped his screwdriver during renovations. Will go for the real thing next time.

hi cyber. nice rant!

11:32 am

Poor Cross?? I love making a good shepherd's pie. Very tasty

11:32 am

Laminate flooring is fake hardwood

11:33 am

MLFAN17

cross i love shepherd's pie..you know most of the things you are making always sound so good:)

11:33 am

MLFAN17

molly some of it is vinyl

11:34 am

MollyL

My only issue with homemade Shepherd's pie is making the crust. That takes a while and makes a mess in the kitchen.

11:34 am

MLFAN17

we have fake hardwood. their are tiles out there that look like hardwood flooring though

11:34 am

The real 3/8 inch hardwood flooring is expensive. Almost have to add another mortgage on your home to get it done:(

11:34 am

MLFAN17

hardwood floors are not cheap at all(real stuff)

11:35 am

MLFAN17

fake can be pricey as well

11:36 am

wouldn't do 3/8" either -- would go for the 5/8" stuff, then when it gets beaten up you can sand it down and refinish it

11:36 am

crosshair

I add a rich gravy, peas, diced onions and shredded carrots and other secret crossy ingredients;)

11:36 am

Grew up with hardwood floors, hard to maintain with 3 dogs and 5 kids. They look great restored now, though!

11:37 am

MollyL

Kids and any kind of pets are hell on good hardwood floors. Unless you are the "constant cleaning" type.

11:38 am

MLFAN17

jbs my parents house had the hardwood floors but not until later it got scratched and such and to my knowledge wasnt redone very often

11:38 am

Thanks, MLF, got it from Jellen years ago, and never wanted to change it after that, even when icon themes were all the rage.
